battlefield-2042

[remote kiln]

a BP is $10

[misty briar]

wym

[remote kiln]

that's a entry barrier 6x less

[mighty holly]

But can I finish it in time and not be locked out

[wide shore]

It’s about $20 less for a full year of content.

[bitter mulch]

if they make a good dlc they get paid

[wide shore]

But there’s less content.

[misty briar]

ye thats what im sayn

[wide shore]

But the gameplay stuff is free

[remote kiln]

consider the viewpoint of somebody playing the game for the first time who doesn't know what a class is, telling them that in order to use "this specific sniper which is randomly placed in this level for no apparent reason" is just illogical

[wide shore]

And if a map sucks ass, it doesn’t matter as much cause you didn’t pay for it.

[bitter mulch]

yeah but thats not how it works. You divide the playerbase

[stone cradle]

Idk, it made sense to my friends.

Whose first BF was V

[misty briar]

well sorry i dont understand the problem rn

[bitter mulch]

BF P4F had a good live service

[stone cradle]

Better Sniper, at higher level

[gusty needle]

the only thing i can think of that helped the playerbase divide in any way outside of a live service model was bf friends in bf1

[stone cradle]

Basic human understanding

[remote kiln]

1, not 5

[wide shore]

I sure a shit didn’t fall for the sunk cost fallacy with BF4. I was pissed a bought premium in that game. Those maps were not worth the price tag.

[gusty needle]

premium friends*

[misty briar]

instead of work for skins i rather have battlefield heroes back

[remote kiln]

5 was.. fine ig

[wide shore]

Which is why you can still find DLC servers on BF1.

[stone cradle]

1 had that too? I guess I forgot

[radiant prism]

I would rather not have premium back

[bitter mulch]

If you put a few guns and maps behind paid DLC, and this dlc buy idk 5 people. Other 20 player wont buy it. Now its only 5 players on that maps with new guns and other dont

[radiant prism]

You can find DLC servers on BF1 like once in a blue moon

[remote kiln]

yeah it's been a long time to be fair, weapon locks behind class levels

[gusty needle]

but you cant play them without squadding up with friends that own premium. squad play doesnt even work in that game, as of last time i checked in 2022.

[wide shore]

The squad up system has never worked in BF1. Lol

[stone cradle]

V's system was fine imo, they just needed to place more content. Because you could easily grind to level 20 in that game without much effort, and unlock everything

[wide shore]

Love that game to death but playing it with friends is a fucking nightmare.

[remote kiln]

5 was fine

the trees made sense

[gusty needle]

it worked for a time, i know i let some people join me in premium servers. tho that was probably during tsnp

[remote kiln]

1 with the class levels was just a mess

[bitter mulch]

i didnt like that. It was a bad system

[stone cradle]

V was perfect in alot of stuff 😔. I just wanted V with a modern skin for 2042.

[remote kiln]

I didnt like it

but it was, fine

[gusty needle]

the progression was just so empty. your options are gun a, gun a with foregrip, gun a with optic, then gun b and then gun c

[remote kiln]

fine in the it exists sense

[remote kiln]

more or less

[misty briar]

but with time out of these 20 ppl, 15 will have it, maybe just not after release. so it seems fair to me if the dlc is good, they get paid, few ppl buy it to play it, spread the positiv feedback and then the other of the bunch will buy it too. i just think good work should be paid. ofc the launch / beta was terrible and ppl should get maybe a penny of payment but they are on a good way with the game

[wide shore]

I can’t even begin to explain how shitty it was for me. It would take like 3-5 tries to get into a game with all my friends. Cause they’d hold the join button and it would do nothing.

[remote kiln]

then there was 4s progression

who loves paid progression unlocks!

[gusty needle]

i tried playing bf1 with my friend in like december 2022, found a lobby that was premium only. one of 3 alive. squad play refused to work. we tried getting it to work for 1 1/2 hours. gave up eventually

[stone cradle]

Well now you don't need to worry because BF1 revolution is like $2 all the time now

[gusty needle]

only if you dont already own the game lol

[bitter mulch]

Well that is very optimistic. But some people cant afford 4 paid dlcs. Few of my friends and me bought DLC for cod ww2. One didnt. We couldt play the new content when he played

[remote kiln]

I will never forgive DICE for the bullshit they tried to pull with 4

[wide shore]

Salaries say “hello”

[remote kiln]

it was crystal clear what they were promoting and it wasn't even hidden

[misty briar]

"just get cool friends with money then"

[gusty needle]

youre gonna need to be more specific, there was a lot of bs in bf4

[stone cradle]

'Brokenfield'

[remote kiln]

the 2 most obvious paid skipping of tiers and the battle packs

[remote kiln]

well, that aswell lmao

[bitter mulch]

what is that?

[gusty needle]

oh like kit shortcuts?

[remote kiln]

yeah

[misty briar]

wait why ppl hate on 4

[gusty needle]

thats been in every game since bc2

[remote kiln]

£20? iirc you could pay to skip everything

jets a whole £5 credit card payment to get everything

[bitter mulch]

i like bf3 more than bf4

[wide shore]

I do not buy that DICE doesn’t have the funding to make more content. They’re definitely making just as much, if not more with their current model. The problem we have with limited free content is complacency.

[copper ice]

i quite enjoyed bfv having everything unlocked quickly, didnt have to use shit for 100 hours while you get the good stuff

[patent path]

[remote kiln]

and then they had the Gaul to charge premium on top of that

[bitter mulch]

spicy

[copper ice]

the more content they add that doesnt churn money out as much as the rest is wasted profit to EA

[misty briar]

anyone who says anything else is a pleb

[stone cradle]

V just needed more content

[wide shore]

Terrible maps, terrible balance. Very overrated.

[copper ice]

profit margins always increasing

[bitter mulch]

alot more than that

[gusty needle]

what, you didnt enjoy playing dinner pla- i mean rogue transmission?

[misty briar]

i mean it was an okay game. i enjoyed it but didnt play it alot, so thats probably true

[copper ice]

tbh V had a pretty decent amount of content, I certainly feel like V had more than 2042 has now even at the launch of V

[stone cradle]

4 is just a worse version of 3

[misty briar]

3 is S tier battlefield

[mighty holly]

Plus more customization so it seems

[gusty needle]

i grew to hate the maps but didnt mind the guns at all in bf4, especially when considering weapon bloom is literally deleted in semi-auto and burst modes

[copper ice]

yeah i really am not interested in the customisation in 2042 at all

[gusty needle]

i mean, dogshit balance and most of the guns in bf4 could literally be deleted and nobody would ever even notice, but i digress

[wide shore]

Rouge Transmission always looked so amateur to me. Those mountains on the northwest look like something I could make on 5 minutes on the far cry map editor.

[stone cradle]

hot take but the BF4 theme is overrated. BF3 theme is way better

[copper ice]

i spent a little while fucking around with customisation in bfv and i dont normally care much for it

[remote kiln]

4s balance was, odd

[remote kiln]

it shouldn't theoretically work, but it does just because of how many broken weapons there are

[wide shore]

Odd in the sense that it didn’t exist.

[patent path]

[gusty needle]

it was everything wrong with 2042 maps at launch: flat, empty, zero destruction, dogshit vehicle balance

[ebon pilot]

[wide shore]

Yuuup

[patent path]

plenty of destruction in launch maps

[copper ice]

add 80 guns, make 16 of them broken, balanced

[remote kiln]

you don't enjoy getting sniped at the enemy spawn?

[wide shore]

Was there any point in not using a suppressor and angled grip on every gun in BF4?

[gusty needle]

add 80 guns, make 70 of them completely useless because the last 10 will kill in half the time and are more accurate

[radiant prism]

People talk about how Exodus was so much better for having the BF3 maps

[misty briar]

tbh not feeling any of the new vault setups, idk why u would want to play worse setups than u have now. maybe only a flashlight to troll ppl but otherwise eh

[radiant prism]

I played it on Caspian Border and was just like “this is just green Hourglass”

[wide shore]

Also let’s add a UCAV that people can deploy in their spawn and just OHK players the whole match

[gusty needle]

wdym you didnt enjoy the enemy team having the only aa parked outside your base while a heli farmer camped behind the E building

[remote kiln]

LMGs yes cause they just had 200 mags anyways and suppressed everything, but other weapon categories you just run that

[ebon pilot]

REAL

[gusty needle]

no, hbar stubby 24/7.

[copper ice]

theyre just going "look! we listened to the community and added Feature!"

[mighty holly]

specialist am I right lads

[ebon pilot]

i mean, it is what people asked for

[copper ice]

remarkable balancing

[ebon pilot]

people wanted more weapons NOW

[wide shore]

The vault guns will be receiving balancing changes too

[gusty needle]

like be honest, how many attachments did you have for the ace 52 that didnt come out of battlepacks

[remote kiln]

let's not forget how dead water the rogue transmission "levolution" was

[copper ice]

yeah its ignoring that they had to scramble to have more than a handful of guns in the game and what they did add was wonky

[remote kiln]

congrats you managed to knock 4 boulders down!

[gusty needle]

ball in sky becomes ball on floor

[wide shore]

The only levolution that ever really looked good was the Shanghai one.

[bitter mulch]

they need to remake more BF2 maps

[copper ice]

it's really easy to go "we listened to the community" when you fuck up the base product so badly; of course you can satisfy community demands when the community is going "please add anything literally anything pls pls pls"

[gusty needle]

at least the crane in bfh added rotations to and from chokepoints

[wide shore]

Levolution was a pretty shit gimmick and I’m surprised it lasted more than one game.

[copper ice]

average gamer brain goes wow big explosion

[remote kiln]

lol the discussion and how it shifted from back then is curious tbh

[copper ice]

it sells

[gusty needle]

what, you didnt enjoy removing the only reason 95% of the playerbase didnt immediately quit shanghai

[patent path]

yeah, behemoths way better mechanic

I miss the giant blimps in bf1

[remote kiln]

the BF4 Shanghai trailer everybody was saying levolution was the next revolution of gaming

and now people are like fuck that

[copper ice]

as a piece of technology it was remarkable for the time

[wide shore]

The flip side of this is not listening to players at all. Which at this juncture they cannot really afford to do that

[copper ice]

as far as actual gameplay goes its ass

[gusty needle]

it was eye candy. then we realized the only fun part of shanghai was that single building and the c capture point.

[remote kiln]

yeah it was curious they didn't show the objective in the trailer after

[copper ice]

With how many people have begged for literally anything to be added to 2042 they cant not listen to the playerbase because anything they do has been begged for by somebody

[stone cradle]

When blimps were destroyed and they crashed down

[bitter mulch]

Where do you think BF will go next? Which era?

[ebon pilot]

after 2042

[mighty holly]

_ _

[copper ice]

blimps were the best behemoths

[wide shore]

Noice. I’m almost there

[copper ice]

the other two were ass

[gusty needle]

im so glad i have every gun tier 1 and dice is about to give me my much deserved tier 1 skins for my vault weapons because they love me so much

[bitter mulch]

more in the future?

[remote kiln]

can I take these from you

[still vault]

Almost there as well

[ebon pilot]

yea

[bitter mulch]

hope not

[ebon pilot]

why

[remote kiln]

assumed from lehtos comments it's likely to be modern/futuristic themed

[mighty holly]

2143 let’s make it happen

[bitter mulch]

I dont like it, 2042 is too much for me

[remote kiln]

based on what he's been hinting at for the campaign

[wide shore]

Where do I think it’ll go? Modern.

Where do I want it to go? Cold War

[copper ice]

2042 is less futuristic than bf4 at this point

[bitter mulch]

so the same as not?

now

[remote kiln]

not really

[copper ice]

we have drone dogs and railguns and everything else is old tech

[remote kiln]

more like, between 4 and 42

[gusty needle]

there were already drone dogs and railguns in bf4

[stone cradle]

Medieval

[bitter mulch]

cold war would be good

[stone cradle]

Battlefield 1294

[copper ice]

[remote kiln]

also check out lehtos twitter and give him advice when he asks, he's very receptive to feedback

[mighty holly]

and hover tanks so I heard

[bitter mulch]

i did, alot

[copper ice]

i dont even understand why they set it in 2042 they've done their hardest not to actually do anything related to it being 2042

[gusty needle]

yea in final stand

[mighty holly]

Ngl I still don’t like the specialist in 2042

[remote kiln]

cc

[gusty needle]

what, there are trash bags and solar-powered tuktuks. thats pretty futuristic

[mighty holly]

I get confused on who’s the enemy and who’s a pog champ

[wide shore]

I just straight up want a game that encompasses the entire Cold War. Add some fictional elements like BO1 too idc. That time period is so interesting. And a great bridge gap between fans of historical shooters, and modern shooters.

[copper ice]

cold war seems most likely to me

[stone cradle]

Based Lehto

[wide shore]

Too much untapped potential.

[gusty needle]

dice add slithering to 2042. itd be funny

[stone cradle]

I want war stories again

[copper ice]

we did historical, 2042 has done modern (allegedly close future), the only other options are cold war or distant future

I would love 2143 but 2042 has been hated enough that they're not gonna sequel it

[mighty holly]

I want the chad basic soldiers back

[copper ice]

immediately at least

[remote kiln]

I don't see distant future happening, at least for the next title

[gusty needle]

i dont mind specialists, ngl

[remote kiln]

2042 was 2142s spiritual successor

[wide shore]

I’m not a future war guy.

2042 is as far as I’d be okay with

[copper ice]

cold war gives close to modern weaponry and tech, gives an easy reason to go back to standard soldiers and classes, and hasn't been covered previously

[remote kiln]

DICE even said they took inspiration from the title

[wide shore]

[copper ice]

wtf have they taken from 2142

[gusty needle]

ok but only if theres a steel box with wheels and a tow missile

[still vault]

I actually don't mind specialists either, but every fraction should have their own specialists, uniforms, skins etc. if they go that way

[copper ice]

where are my walking tanks

[bitter mulch]

same

[gusty needle]

speaking of tow missiles, when is dice going to fix the 2042 tow missiles

[mighty holly]

Start of the resource war or so idk

[copper ice]

what is the point of doing near future tech if you're not going to have mechs

[gusty needle]

theyve had horrible input delay since launch

[bitter mulch]

Future would not be good for the game. To early

[remote kiln]

I can see them doing a distant future one again maybe like 2 titles down? but I'm definitely more for a 3 grounded title

[copper ice]

the condor shouldn't be vtol, it should have LEGS

jet heli flies in and crashes into the ground on big jet legs

stomp on people

instead we have flying tanks

[remote kiln]

no the vtol should turn into legs

[copper ice]

YES

[remote kiln]

once it enters hover the legs extend

[gusty needle]

add bf2142 t-39

[copper ice]

holy shit thats even better

[wide shore]

Crazy that BF4 had the floating tanks but 2042 doesn’t.

[copper ice]

the vtol already even kind of looks like legs

[gusty needle]

to be fair, i cant imagine having a jet-propelled tank being even remotely convenient in any capacity

[copper ice]

yeah this is whats getting me the most about 2042, they have done nothing with the setting outside of tornados

[gusty needle]

it seems like the ceo of gimmicks

[remote kiln]

I was convinced the tor was going to be it when it got leaked

really bizarre they chose not to

[copper ice]

it feels like setting it in the future was solely an excuse to include specialists

they've done nothing else with it

[wide shore]

Perhaps. Useless but neat

[copper ice]

practically it doesnt feel further ahead than bf4 at all

[gusty needle]

how so? every specialist except sundance's suit has already been done in a previous game

[copper ice]

Not in terms of new technology, but making no-pats

Mercs instead of country soldiers

[gusty needle]

im sure they could fit specialists in without them being nopats.

[remote kiln]

there was one big thing about them, and it's that they floated over rough terrain, so you couldn't get them stuck.. like you can now

[copper ice]

They definitely could, but it feels like that's the only thing they've done with 2042s setting

[wide shore]

And would just add some conviction to the “BF4 and 2042 are in the same universe.”

They upgraded the rail gun, but forgot about their hover tanks? Why haven’t tread tanks just been rendered obsolete yet? It just doesn’t make sense.

[copper ice]

The tech is all the same as bf4

[gusty needle]

true, but ive actually never gotten a vehicle stuck without intentionally bugging it (I miss you LCAA, you were my first love)

[copper ice]

Guns etc

[remote kiln]

MBT spearhead is torture

[wide shore]

Not true they have powered rails now baby

[gusty needle]

i dont touch tanks in 2042, i dont doubt you

[copper ice]

tor is the most poopoo thing they added go back to unpowered rails

tor should be a jet tank with no turret

[gusty needle]

agreed, no reason why a tank should hitscan instakill a jet 2 seconds after it spawned in

[copper ice]

like the ww2 tank destroyers

remove turret remove treads

[copper ice]

hover tank destroyer railgun at least feels like the future

[gusty needle]

oh you mean like no swivel or whatever, just like 30 degree cone of vision

[copper ice]

Yeah

[gusty needle]

this is cursed.

[copper ice]

If it had no treads you can easily bullshit some "with our new Float Tech we dont need a turret that makes us extra vulnerable blah blah"

and it would actually feel distinct from the MBTs

[gusty needle]

have you ever used the hover tank in bf4? shit was so janky

[copper ice]

tor siege mode and mobility mode feel stupid right now

man, everything in this game feels janky

at least hover tank had it being dlc as an excuse

[fathom maple]

EA did it again with Jedi Survivor

[gusty needle]

imo the only thing that really bothers me is how bullets inherit the inertia of the thing theyre fired from, but that makes realistic sense so im not gonna complain too much about it

[copper ice]

state of vehicles on release was borrowing 5 universes down the hall's laws of physics

[copper ice]

160gbs for a single player game and it still doesnt run

[remote kiln]

it does

[copper ice]

optimisation is so not important to companies anymore

[remote kiln]

there was a patch today

it's actually playable now

[gusty needle]

sweet

[fathom maple]

i'm talking about the state of the game during launch

[copper ice]

that's still a pretty significant time after release where it was literally unplayable for many

[fathom maple]

imagine u preordered it lol

[copper ice]

its so fucking lame that stuff is just dogshit on release now

[remote kiln]

apparently the reason for survivor was a respawn exec refusing a second delay

[gusty needle]

true chads abuse dogshit and goon

[remote kiln]

iirc

[copper ice]

stop making respawn make single player games please

make them.make the next battlefield

im begging you

[gusty needle]

titanfall patch

please

titanfall patch

mp is in shambles

[stone cradle]

Yes, the director of the game.

[copper ice]

pain

[fathom maple]

The Sims 5 please

[stone cradle]

Wow I can't wait to buy everything... All over again

[gusty needle]

sims devs make next bf game pls

[copper ice]

there will never be a titanfall 3 and i dont know how to live in a world where we get 15 billion poo sequels and I'll never see BT again

[gusty needle]

truth

[stone cradle]

Hold up, let them bang. We need to see what their child will be

[copper ice]

praying armoured core 6 sells so well that all the triple A companies jump on the Mech train

[gusty needle]

bolte

[remote kiln]

director close enough

[copper ice]

I HATE THIS

[gusty needle]

t-39 from bf2142 please dice

[copper ice]

I genuinely can't believe we have a spiritual prequel to 2142 and it has no mechs

[gusty needle]

right?

[copper ice]

Where are your hearts

[gusty needle]

bf4 final stand had bunkers FULL OF THEM

gib bogatyr dice

i wanna chad out in a tier 1 bogatyr w tier 1 boris

[copper ice]

make sequel to bf4
refuse to actually utilise any of the tech you added to the end of bf4

why why why why why why

[gusty needle]

at least the railgun in 2042 is more realistic

even tho the mk.1 wouldve been far more balanced and more fun

eye candy + ear candy > realism

[gusty needle]

dice gib bfh vault weapons

[copper ice]

the only thing they've done is make bigger railgun and its been a nightmare in terms of balance for both infantry and vehicles

mounted mackay

[gusty needle]

akm and m82 .416 pls

[copper ice]

[gusty needle]

fuck it, mammoth gun

[radiant prism]

how much is it gonna surprise you that I've been loving Survivor

[copper ice]

we don't even have any weird future tech gimmick funnygunnies

[gusty needle]

fr

[modest ivy]

Has this not been fixed yet??

[copper ice]

I'm actually looking forward to playing survivor, just not at full price and when it'll blow my comp up

[radiant prism]

There was a patch for JS the other day

[remote kiln]

nope can still do it on portal

[radiant prism]

Improved the performance quite a bit

[copper ice]

I would have at least thought we'd get a silly future beanbag gun or something

we have a crossbow

[radiant prism]

But def get it on sale Chunky

[gusty needle]

i wish legendary skins in 2042 were separate uniforms and headgears, instead of set-specific

[copper ice]

not very advanced tech

[radiant prism]

Its gameplaywise just as good as Fallen Order

I really think the performance thing got blown out of proportion too

[modest ivy]

Man, I blew Atic's mind when I first found this and then afterwards proceeded to trap him and myself with a car in one of those tanks

[copper ice]

I enjoyed fallen order and it looks like fallen order but with notably more content and more experience

[gusty needle]

wdym? a crossbow is definitely superior tech to a lewis gun

[radiant prism]

Thats a pretty accurate take yeah

[copper ice]

I guess we went from normal bow in bf4 to crossbow in 2042

tech so advanced.....

[radiant prism]

customization is a pure evolution of fallen order

[gusty needle]

jesus christ the mammoth gun is .700 nitro express

[remote kiln]

creating the next evolution of the CAV brawler

[copper ice]

put the gun that fires the. 22 Eargesplitten Loudenboomer into the game

[copper ice]

Good!! That's more like it

[gusty needle]

loudenboomer cant be a real word

jfc

[copper ice]

it's a real cartridge

I shit you not

1400m/s velocity

we don't need railguns we need the Loudenboomer

[radiant prism]

you can customize cals hair, facial hair, poncho/coat, undershirt and pants

[gusty needle]

whoever invented german needs to go into the pit.

[radiant prism]

lightsabers are even more customizable with more colors and parts, as well as a customizable pistol

and switchable stances are so cool

[copper ice]

That's waaay more like it

Good!

Respawn does do good stuff

[gusty needle]

yeah respawn always provides

[copper ice]

You should look up how the cartridge looks if you think just the name is silly

[gusty needle]

i see it

thats not allowed

[radiant prism]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.22_Eargesplitten_Loudenboomer

[copper ice]

You could have that as one of the melee weapons alone

[radiant prism]

EARGESPLITTEN

[gusty needle]

Loudenboomer.

[copper ice]

We need THIS in battlefield

[gusty needle]

chode boolet

[radiant prism]

dice

[copper ice]

YES

[gusty needle]

this is aerodynamics

[copper ice]

If you have any bullets left over after your gun explodes in your hands you can beat your enemy to death with them

[gusty needle]

dud club but in the modern era

[copper ice]

It's multifunctional

[gusty needle]

i cant post pics in chat ):

[copper ice]

normal poster issues

[nocturne valve]

now wtf are Vault Weapons

[mighty holly]

Weapons that where in a vault

[nocturne valve]

Ah I haven't unlocked them that's why I didn't see them

[quaint vector]

[nocturne valve]

did they get added recently ?

because I've definitely killed 100 enemies with the M39 EMR in Portal just yesterday and it says 0

that's what I mean by recently

[visual cradle]

Can somebody help me with portal sharing?

[remote kiln]

lol just wait till you see season 5

[gusty needle]

vault weapons are portal weapons

[remote kiln]

if you think these vault weapons are powerful

[nocturne valve]

#portal

[nocturne valve]

that's not what I said ?

[remote kiln]

oh uh yeah my bad

misread

[gusty needle]

ngl i dont remember shit about the portal weapons other than the fact that theyre all inaccurate and have horrible hipfire accuracy (fuck the M1911)

[nocturne valve]

any idea when they added them though ?

[remote kiln]

EMR has been in for a while

season 3 iirc

[nocturne valve]

then it's not counting my Portal kills... 😔

[remote kiln]

season 2 or 3 can't remember which

[gusty needle]

only some of the portal weapons are in aow.

[remote kiln]

^

[gusty needle]

my tier 1 kills tracked perfectly fine

[nocturne valve]

aow ?

[gusty needle]

all out war

so conquest, breakthrough, rush, and tdm

[nocturne valve]

Yeah okay but that isn't the issue here

let me show you

[dapper river]

finally...... a cartridge to surpass 5.56.....

[gusty needle]

describe it, you cant post pics i dont think

or i cant atl

[nocturne valve]

ah wait I can't yes

so basically

[remote kiln]

you need the booster or regular role

then you get image perms

[gusty needle]

oksu

okay*

or... i can upload them to my own server as emotes

[nocturne valve]

looking in the Collection tab, to unlock the SVD as a Vault Weapon, I need 100 kills with either the SVD in Portal or the SVK

and I've done the SVD part in Portal

[gusty needle]

kills before the patch didnt count

[nocturne valve]

but it says 0/100

[remote kiln]

r u on a xp farm server

[nocturne valve]

when was the patch ?

[gusty needle]

mid season 3

i believe with breakaway rework

iirc

for the svd at least

[nocturne valve]

Aaaah no but it was on my custom game mode that probably has restricted XP gain, would that be the issue ?

[remote kiln]

yes it won't work with restricted xp

[gusty needle]

doesnt matter, just go into a solo/co-op match on breakthrough stranded and get 100 svk kills

[nocturne valve]

Because it's very very rule edited

[remote kiln]

it has to be full xp

[nocturne valve]

fock

but wait, I just realized it doesn't matter

[dapper river]

would be fine if the damn servers for solo/co-op weren't downgraded

the update rate is so shit ffs

[nocturne valve]

I don't even play the base game

[remote kiln]

there's a breakdown for you

[nocturne valve]

[gusty needle]

yeah i feel that

right click on portal experiences to see their progression status

"Experience Info"

[remote kiln]

mastery xp is what you're after for the kills, it's locked under restricted

[gusty needle]

^

[nocturne valve]

So I just need to make my experience Featured

[remote kiln]

you need it to moderate

[gusty needle]

it also only goes up to tier 3 kill counts. However, most, if not all, attachments will be unlocked before this milestone. The only exceptions are headshots beyond certain range/hipfire/ads kill-specific attachments.

[remote kiln]

featured is only for innovative modes

[nocturne valve]

like mine

[gusty needle]

no, just go into solo/coop breakthrough on the map stranded. free attachment farm

[nocturne valve]

sorry i meant innovative

[gusty needle]

itd take like 5 minutes

[nocturne valve]

no sorry I don't like boredom

[gusty needle]

youll literally be there 5 minutes

its 100 kills

[nocturne valve]

5 minutes of boredom

[gusty needle]

preferable to 20 minutes of boredom

[remote kiln]

tbf

he's right

[nocturne valve]

he is

[remote kiln]

just go on a portal rush 128 server

and you'll be done in 10 minutes

[gusty needle]

i said solo/coop breakthrough stranded

[nocturne valve]

however, I don't really need to unlock the SVD for AOW since I haven't had a single minute of fun in AOW

so problem fixed

[gusty needle]

weird, i cant stand portal servers

[nocturne valve]

Why ?

[gusty needle]

theyre all just ratfests in my experience

[nocturne valve]

then try my mode

it's search and destroy, without the destroy part

(sounds boring I know)

[gusty needle]

[remote kiln]

so.. TDM?

[gusty needle]

^

[nocturne valve]

Nooo

TDM but 4v4 no redeploy

[gusty needle]

that just sounds like a ratfest

[remote kiln]

so just squad tdm lol

[nocturne valve]

(revives included)

[remote kiln]

that was in the older games

[nocturne valve]

Yes in BF1

[remote kiln]

and 3

[gusty needle]

cant wait to be shot by someone hiding bc theyre afraid of dying

and bc2

[nocturne valve]

Squad TDM has redeploys

[gusty needle]

bc2 was cool cos there was a bradley that teams fought over

[nocturne valve]

I'm saying no redeploys

[remote kiln]

no my guy

they were customisable

[nocturne valve]

Ah never played that

[remote kiln]

HQ SQTDM servers had them turned off

so it was a one death only

[nocturne valve]

BF1 had an experimental game mode that was in preview only that was just like that

[gusty needle]

i dont like those modes cos people are just afraid to take gunfights

[nocturne valve]

but they simply never finished it and we never heard of it again

[nocturne valve]

Okay, but mine has neat details okay ?

[gusty needle]

stuff like that happens in games like insurgency and siege, where you just end up being the only player to ever enter buildings or peek corners

[remote kiln]

it's been talked about before but unfortunately portal has been a colossal failure

needs to be removed in future titles

[gusty needle]

hazard zone moment

[ebon pilot]

it needs more assets and they just need to make it possible to write real code. you can't make a sufficiently complex gamemode in portal easily with a fucking visual programming language

[remote kiln]

here's the issue with that though

even if they did, nobody will bother

[nocturne valve]

like the details are :

• HUD off
• Message on screen showing which squadmates need a revive
• Loadout crate call-in that turns into a medkit when you don't have 100 health
• Crawl when down and defibrillator for all players

[ebon pilot]

I would, but don't today because I want to write real code

[remote kiln]

players are fuck all lazy and can't be bothered trying to spend hours making something, they're not like the GTA scene

or the folk that would are a tiny minority

they just like to shoot bad guys

[nocturne valve]

(took me too much time but it was way more fun than any time I spent on the base game)

[gusty needle]

i feel those players are playing gmod or something

fucking roblox

[ebon pilot]

and those players playing gmod are writing lua

[nocturne valve]

does roblox look as good as Portal BF3 though ?

[gusty needle]

yes

better, even

[nocturne valve]

delusional

[ebon pilot]

i'm gonna need some pics or it didn't happen

[gusty needle]

i can source those

[nocturne valve]

how convenient

[gusty needle]

can i post links

[nocturne valve]

no

[ebon pilot]

yeah they just don't render

[nocturne valve]

how convenient

[nocturne valve]

nitro isn't the issue here

[gusty needle]

i have nitro i dont have the required perms for this

also this is just the first video i could find

[nocturne valve]

I knew exactly that you would send that

[remote kiln]

the more, well worse part about portal is as shown by 2042 the majority don't care whatsoever for it except for XP farm servers

[gusty needle]

frontlines mode i believe

[nocturne valve]

so you were wrong

[remote kiln]

and that's just a travesty

[gusty needle]

theres no way this looks worse than bf3

[quaint vector]

Only Server Boosters and Regulars can post Pics/Vids

[remote kiln]

but it's been a failure for both factors

[nocturne valve]

It doesn't LOOK better than Portal BF3

[remote kiln]

mods can't send them

[naive quiver]

Nitro is only $ 8,99 a month

[gusty needle]

i have nitro

[ebon pilot]

and yet you're not boosting the server HMMMM

[gusty needle]

yea

[remote kiln]

he has classic

[gusty needle]

[nocturne valve]

think I'd boost this server ? because I only play Portal ?

[quaint vector]

We can...

[gusty needle]

boost the server ive only ever talked in like 3 times

[ebon pilot]

i did that and now i'm here all the time posting my clips

[gusty needle]

[quaint vector]

And why Am I here...

[gusty needle]

what

[remote kiln]

you're here waiting for someone to come in and say remove specialists

[naive quiver]

Pls

[gusty needle]

i like them

[mighty holly]

Me no like

[gusty needle]

i like mackay bhop

but you know what i dont like

[quaint vector]

Specialists will stay in BF2042, not in next BF

We’re in 2023 , we don’t have specialist yet

64p conquest is this week? Or not?

[quaint vector]

Yes

Also Conquest 128

[pliant oak]

Nice 😄

[remote kiln]

and breakthrough 64

and portal is this week too

[quaint vector]

Everything

[stone cradle]

No 128BT though

[mighty moat]

It actually isnt, have you loaded into a game recently? People join up instantly

Paid dlc doesnt suck. I miss waking up on a friday to buy the new dlc for call of duty zombies and actually getting a good map for once. Now i play cold war and the maps are more boring and uniconic conpared to der riese and kino der toten

tbh, though with some games they are litterally dead.

[mighty moat]

I honestly dont like breakthrough, i think in retrospect the idea of the map changing based on attackers pushing hard but it doesnt give the same excitement of the map changing based on who's winning like the mode rush

[remote kiln]

I'm not sure what you mean

[mighty moat]

About...?

I said i dont like breakthrough because its either sit and defend a set portion of the map or get pushed into a new section where you as the defenders are now loosing unless you defend long enough with no wat to defend and push to the last section of the map

But i think rush does it better because you can pus either forward or back on either team

[mighty holly]

[mighty moat]

Food for though. I still love conquest the most

[mighty holly]

But rush gives you an obj to destroy while breakthrough you have to capture all objects
They both offer different things in every aspects
Breakthrough you gotta capture and well the defenders can recapture some objs before they lose it all completely
While rush you have to destroy said obj and when it’s destroyed it’s over for that section

I don’t like conquest

[mighty moat]

It does but as defenders you can make the map move back

At least it was like that in bf1

Bf1 did rush the best but i hated the game overall

As for breakthrough, i just dont like the one set map position that just pushes through the defenders unless defenders are winning

[mighty holly]

all I gotta say is frontlines would be pog to have

adds both rush and breakthrough

[mighty moat]

Frontlines?

[mighty holly]

Yeah it’s a tug of war game mode

[royal swan]

You don't know Frontlines?

Bruh

[mighty moat]

What game was it from?

[royal swan]

[mighty holly]

Where you do a breakthrough and if the enemy loses its sectors you get to destroy their 2 objs like rush

if they succeed to defend you go back to breakthrough

[royal swan]

Sectors don't lock btw

[mighty holly]

If I explained it correctly

Bf1 and bfv had it

Well bfv was different from bf1 iirc but I forgor probably was something minor

[mighty moat]

Idk why i feel like i didnt play it in bf5

I played bf5 way more than 1

[mighty holly]

Sadly it was limited time

[mighty moat]

I honestly think bf5 is my favorite game in the series despite the couple changes to history in it

Was frontlines in bf1 at launch?

[mighty holly]

I think post launch

[mighty moat]

Was it after dlc 2?

[mighty holly]

Most likely idk

[mighty moat]

Cause i only played some up to dlc 2 and then got bored of the historical accuracy of snipers everywhere and muster gas out the ass

[radiant prism]

Even then V’s history isn’t much to scoff at compared to other games in the franchise

Especially 1 lmao

[dusky tulip]

the scoreboard when you press and hold to see is too opaque you can barely see the font

[livid swift]

gotta be top 5 to see yourself on the scoreboard

[radiant prism]

IIRC most of what V got “wrong” was the Norway story, Rotterdam not having any actual British presence, and some anachronistic/experimental weapon types/cosmetics

Notice I didn’t mention women because A) there’s known examples of women fighting in combat roles in the war on all sides (including in Germany!) though maybe not to the extent they’re present in game and B) fuck you if you think the option to play as a woman is a problem in this case

[radiant prism]

Oh and some of the cosmetics were a bit wacky

[mighty holly]

hear me out

_ _

[radiant prism]

Always angra

[mighty holly]

I forgor

But recently I played 2042 and well I’m still shooting at my teammates

[mighty holly]

More lads would’ve been nice to see more
Also should’ve added more characters to the Germans and Japanese but I don’t mind seeing lasses

[acoustic seal]

how did we end up with tdm changed to 48 players?

[radiant prism]

Yeah I agree. Woulda been nice, but oh well

[mighty holly]

True sadge days

also I don’t think I’ll be doing kamikaze on 2042 @radiant prism

[radiant prism]

Valid

[ivory canopy]

I don't think Battlefield was ever truly set to be historically accurate.

Liberties get taken to help with gameplay.

Look at 1942. The StG 44 was available to the German axis on all maps.

[mighty holly]

And somehow a Japanese lad of higher rank and or a kamikaze pilot can be in a German group or vise versa

[ivory canopy]

Tbh it would be nice to see at least a couple more specialists to balance out the classes.

inb4 they add Haggard from BC2

[stone cradle]

But, but.. they changed history!!! Women propaganda!!!!

Hey, atleast it's better than vanguard's..

[mighty holly]

do you speak Japanese

[stone cradle]

That's more in-accurate than... well literally anything

They make out aussies to be pricks and they hated fighting alongside the British

literally not true

[radiant prism]

Vanguard…just turn your brain off anywhere near that game.

[stone cradle]

Not to mention the protags glossing over war crimes the allies committed and denying they happened...

[radiant prism]

You’ll genuinely enjoy it more

[radiant prism]

Yeah CoD has a habit of that one :/

(See: MW19 Highway of Death)

You've got the opportunity of a lifetime to be the first to have any unique username on a future popular social platform.

[celest osprey]

Is this what iGen has raised?

Damn im embarassed

[radiant prism]

Be proud that we just don’t give a fuck anymore

[celest osprey]

Shame on you. A username is everything

[radiant prism]

The world is on fire, I can’t buy a house, and I have a higher chance of getting shot on the street than getting a job, so I’m gonna do whatever the fuck I want no matter how little sense it makes

[celest osprey]

Gee man I didn't mean it like that

[radiant prism]

Nah it’s ok

Fuck it, we ball, my friend.

We ball.

Anyone else getting an issue on Xbox X that it's stuck on only Assault, cannot change to any other class?

[celest osprey]

What has gotten into me to ask on discord 😂

[mighty holly]

If anything gotta ask the real question like what type of name are you looking for

[celest osprey]

Like how on reddit some people make a post about "what reddit username are you jealous of" kinda level

[shadow hazel]

Anyone else looking forward to playing with the Devs this Friday?

[mighty holly]

yeah idk that’s a hard one to say

[errant scarab]

when hello kitty skin

[mighty holly]

if anything I just say nice to their names instead of being jealous or something

[celest osprey]

I thought of admin for the irony but that eill most likely not work

[stone cradle]

Can't forget black Ops

4 guys bring in mini-guns and go on a killing spree in the kgb hq

[radiant prism]

I mean yeah theres that

[stone cradle]

And the soviet union does nothing in response

[radiant prism]

But I still think MW19 rewriting a real life atrocity committed by the US to have been committed by the Russians

is worse

[coarse sluice]

No one else having that issue? lol

[radiant prism]

Yeah not sure, haven't heard of it before

[stone cradle]

I'm still waiting for an FPS that presents the past in a nuanced view

I guess atleast black Ops attempts that

[radiant prism]

keep on waiting my friend

Guarantee you itll never happen

History is always biased

[stone cradle]

Modern warfare feels like an glorification from the US side

[radiant prism]

Not that one side or the other is right, but rather that one side or the other is the one telling it

[stone cradle]

Nah it can totally happen, but it would be pretty controversial to sell a game like that I guess.

And I guess companies want to avoid getting in such trouble

[misty briar]

well u never know. if the other side won, propaganda would look different and u might would say the same rn

[radiant prism]

Thats what Im saying

[misty briar]

oh i totaly missread that lmao

does defense on breakthrough only have a limited amount of vehicles?

[edgy oriole]

youll be lucky to get 2 light vehicles on defense on bt

[ancient peak]

So apparently I can’t boot up 2042 even though it’s installed?

[remote kiln]

have you tried washing it

[ancient peak]

Funny.

Seriously though it won’t even connect to the EA account

[rapid wind]

ya login server down atm

[ashen drum]

that's bs cant even play my singleplayer games like dead space

does the ea app have a offline login like steam?

[wet spoke]

try runing the game from your local files

maybe it won't start through EA app

origin used to have offline mode idk bout this one, can't find any options in the login screen

[ashen drum]

yeah overall the new EA app is trash, idk why they had to kill origin for this

[wet spoke]

didn't even know about it till i launched bf5 like 2 weeks ago, was shocked

[ancient peak]

Yeah it’s a login server problem

Welp I’ll just do something else

[signal owl]

I opened a super music from the back, such an error when entering the game 😦 Login did not go as planned

[wet spoke]

ayo, i got it

app is workin for me now

[ashen drum]

yeah me too

see you on the battlefield boyz

[karmic egret]

GIB AUG

[left fern]

I mean who honestly cares

[granite island]

Did they bring back the spearhead thing

[drifting torrent]

So can someone explain to me how im getting annihlated in jet dog fights… half the time its just me and the enemy jet just circling around for 20 minutes with them on my arse 24/7

[granite island]

Oh they actually did bring back the spearhead missile thing

[frigid violet]

so i've been playing the world tour & cq of ages playlists and oh my god why are the bc2 guns so inaccurate

[granite island]

Cool

[frigid violet]

i don't believe they were actually like that bad in bc2

[toxic cobalt]

are servers down for anyone

[granite island]

No

Not for me atleast

[frigid violet]

no im playing rn

[fresh flame]

I find the conquest of the ages has helped a lot with unlocking the railgun as a low-level, because you can just equip a grenade launcher to the bottom of the M16 and shoot at vehicles without having to level up a gun to get the under-barrel grenade launcher.

unless would a LMG with armor-piercing rounds do more damage than a grenade launcher?

[frigid violet]

no

[fresh flame]

So just keep using a grenade launcher

[frigid violet]

yeah but it's insane, the bullets literally just go anywhere except where i am aiming

[next sorrel]

i noticed that but idm it,

just burst fire

or just nade spam

[frigid violet]

i was prone with a bipod and the bullets were just making a circle around my target lol

it's just such a departure from the weapon handling in 2042 proper

[fresh flame]

Random bullet deviation lol

[sage dock]

I know a man that sounds almost like Boris; He's Italian though, but still has that deep mature voice with a heavy accent. Boris is a neat guy to play as; He's got attitude!

[frigid violet]

i just don't remember it being that bad in the original game

[tacit marlin]

How do you do the spearhead missile thingy

[sage dock]

I wasn't complaining when I first started playing. I remember back when you could hear Falck sayin': "I DON'T NEED ASSISTANCE!" when deciding to bleed out instead of getting help.

[granite island]

Find the 3 transmitter beacons

It's really easy

[thick peak]

Yo everibody

[copper ice]

AP rounds do almost nothing

you can magdump AP bullets into a heli and itll do under 20%

for a 100 mag lmg

HE 40mm ubgl does more damage than all your AP ammo and you get 3 HE nades

[copper ice]

if only he wasnt the worst spec in the game

[sage dock]

Dude! His sentry does wonders! Especially in smoke.

During heavy firepower, I just throw smoke and place the sentry in the middle of the carnage.

[copper ice]

i... am afraid i cannot agree with this

[acoustic seal]

boris is just the carrier for my AP UBGL scar and recoilless

i pretend the turret doesn't exist

[sage dock]

That's it! Let's take this out in the battlefield!

Kill me.

[fresh flame]

I mean using the grenade launcher in two matches I went from 15 to 120, I did spend most of the match chasing the vehicles around instead of killing players. Although I did direct impact a couple people with a grenade launcher and that was hilarious

[next sorrel]

remember when redeploying in battlefield was called committing suicide, lol

[fresh flame]

although getting to 500 vehicle damage for the rail-gun seems like it could take forever.

[granite island]

136 ping hard-core 1000% damage portal server

This is going to be hell

[solar widget]

Sucks I gotta upgrade to play this game

[copper ice]

i would like boris to be good but in practical use, i literally dont have a single boris turret kill

and i was only killed by it once in 150 hours

it's poo

[copper ice]

nade launcher is definitely the way to go there

Especially if you pick a gun that has AP 40mm ubgl

[next sorrel]

same

[copper ice]

it used to be easier to get 500 vehicle damage with primaries but they nerfed all of them

including the railgun itself

they all mad poo vs vehicles now

[upbeat leaf]

Hi-Ya!

[upbeat leaf]

Hi

Don’t mind this message it’s just my username for someone else

[fresh flame]

The railgun still good as a sniper rifle though right?

[karmic egret]

Sorta

[copper ice]

Worse than it was before, still better than most of the snipers

higher rof higher mag size higher velocity

only downside is 6x scope is maximum and it has charge time

[fresh flame]

Ah I see

[copper ice]

the charge time is large

but thats it

Its a fucking nightmare when theres a dude with a railgun on top of a building

[ebon pilot]

but also since anyone can carry it the moment you get killed by one you just pull out your own and hit them back

[copper ice]

yeah but then i have to use railgun

[next onyx]

Oh lord.

That is unholy.

[fresh flame]

Am I missing something is there something wrong with the suppressor on an M16?

[next onyx]

The one I showed? Not really but it's so big.

[fresh flame]

I mean yeah that's got to be like a 9-inch suppressor

[next sorrel]

looks heavy

[fresh flame]

With that gigantic suppressor that's a pretty long assault rifle, because if my eyes aren't mistaken that's an extended barrel as well isn't it?

[next onyx]

No that's just the heavy suppressor.

What happens in #battlefield-2042 stays in #battlefield-2042

[fresh flame]

I want to be honest right now I know that modern Battlefield games have always been the US versus Russia, but why not the US versus North Korea or China?. Actually not China because they would just ban the game for having them as the bad guys.

[warm stirrup]

Controversy, money, possible threats to initiate war. Just to state a few

[hallow sierra]

because in 2042 its cold war 1.5 era

[warm stirrup]

Also probably due to korea being the #1 controversial places to exist, let alone it's dictator eagerness to launch nukes

Need i say more?

[calm bison]

I mean I don’t why you’re asking for this. You are literally asking for Battlefield 4

Hell Bf4 even had a map set in Pyongyang

[arctic grove]

Nobody would care if it were North Korea. They will have 0 impact on how the game sells or it’s PR

[warm stirrup]

Battlefield 4 literally almost started a war between us and china with it's illegal use of multiple chinese locations

[warm stirrup]

This is utterly false

[fresh flame]

I mean I'm pretty sure North Korea doesn't even have access to our video games so how would they ever find out, besides they probably have better things to do besides being mad about being portrayed as the bad guy in a video game....... wait a minute this is the same country that tried to go to war over the movie the Interview

[arctic grove]

Lmao NK is called the hermit kingdom for a reason

Almost everyone embargoes and or sanctions them

They will have 0 impact on anything

[calm bison]

Literally the Homefront series of games

Yknow I would love to see NK try a land invasion of one of their neighbors and see how bad it goes

If Russia can utterly embarrass themselves for the uhh..

I lost count of times

[arctic grove]

North Korea has about 2 months of proven oil reserves in any case of a war

[warm stirrup]

Right? Korea literally declared war on the U.S. if the movie "the interview" was released in theaters, so it went straight to dvd

[arctic grove]

Their plan is simply to inflict as much damage on the south as possible then have china do everything else

[calm bison]

Well that’s just cuz the movie sucked

It had James Franco. What more can be said

[warm stirrup]

Totally not at all for depicting korea as the bad guys

[calm bison]

Well that’s a given

[warm stirrup]

And you want a war game with them portrayed as the bad guys?

[arctic grove]

Only thing that annoys me and invokes my nerd response is when people say bf4 predicted today

Because

[calm bison]

I mean

[arctic grove]

China has had a predictable foreign policy for… a while

[calm bison]

Battlefield could probably pull of a Korean War game

[arctic grove]

(It’s literally where BF4s theme comes from)

[calm bison]

Corsairs, Pershings, T-34s

The dawn of jet warfare

[warm stirrup]

Totally unbiased right?

[calm bison]

Well given that DICE made the US the bad guys in 2042 I’m sure they could do it. Unlikely but possible

[arctic grove]

In what way would it be biased? We all know it was Congress’ restraint to actually go to war in Korea, otherwise history would’ve been way different

okay I feel like the nerd emoji right now

lmao

[calm bison]

I’m just amazed that you think a game about the US fighting NK would be enough to spark a war

[warm stirrup]

Neither side is the bad guy then? Both sides are good?

[fresh flame]

Then they cried about it on release and did absolutely nothing, even I know and I'm Canadian you don't threaten the US because they will respond with the hammer of Thor known as the US Military lol

[warm stirrup]

Yet a movie was

[arctic grove]

It’s about as likely as Cuba doing the same thing when they got mad at Activision for allowing you to kill Castro in Black Ops 1

[arctic grove]

what?

North Korea literally invaded the south tho

[calm bison]

How do I put it simply

[warm stirrup]

False, it was never released in theaters as compromise

[calm bison]

Imagine making a game about the Russian Invasion of Ukraine and then trying to make it unbiased

Yikes

[slender isle]

Y’all hyped for S5

[calm bison]

Yes

[warm stirrup]

This is the reason many settings can't be used for war games

[arctic grove]

China would cry about another game where they’re depicted as a faction, probably hurt the revenue, but would otherwise get over it

Not like China doesn’t fucking denounce the US’ existence as a country to begin with lol

[warm stirrup]

US vs Russia is simple cuz neither is portrayed as good or evil

[arctic grove]

Or pull a 7 days in fallujah and depict the theme like 10+ yrs after the actual war

[calm bison]

I mean…

[ebon pilot]

but it had a limited release at selected theaters the next day

[warm stirrup]

False

[arctic grove]

Everyone has very good reason to believe the US is a significantly better country than Russia

[fresh flame]

Apparently they still weren't very happy about the DVD release, wait a minute the interview was made by Sony why did they threaten the US the movie was made by a Japanese company

[calm bison]

If they can make video games about the American Civil War I’m pretty sure they can depict other things

[arctic grove]

Just like the age old “axis vs allies” moral debate. the countries behind both factions speak for themselves

and the axis was objectively worst

[warm stirrup]

Just like many russians have reason to believe Russia is better than the states

Also factor in how Russia is bigger than the US

[calm bison]

The reason why DICE can make something the Last Tiger is that there are reports of German soldiers actually having some fucking decency

[arctic grove]

I think russias economic stagnation speaks for itself tho

[calm bison]

Also factor in how much of that land is actually occupied

[warm stirrup]

You speak for every Russian?

[calm bison]

Russia may be massive but most of their cities are in the west

[ebon pilot]

literally google "the interview limited release"

[warm stirrup]

Broad assumption

[arctic grove]

But Russians believe they’re better cause they’re being fed propaganda by an authoritarian government, the US knows it’s better because the coverage on Russia’s behavior since and before the federation

[arctic grove]

In a stagnant and receding economy everyone feels it

unless you’re the elite I guess

[warm stirrup]

Literally the definition of biased

[calm bison]

See here’s the thing, the US isn’t forcing me to go to prison for speaking out against my government, and it’s not forcing me to go join the frontlines of an invasion war no one wanted

[arctic grove]

Bare minimum of anyone really

[arctic grove]

….right

[warm stirrup]

US makes us look good
Russia makes Russia look good

[arctic grove]

this

[calm bison]

Yeah but when you have reports of people like Kurt Krispy Kreme who punched his superior over the protection of a Soviet POW, it makes it easy

[arctic grove]

But everyone else knows Russia isn’t good

[calm bison]

For the last 100+ years Russia hasn’t exactly been the good guys

Russo-Japanese War

WW1

The Winter War

WW2

Korean and Vietnam Wars

Afghanistan

[warm stirrup]

Factor in that everyone in this server is American also shows how biased it is and what little no no understanding of Russian citizens

[calm bison]

Chechnya

And now Ukraine. Twice

[arctic grove]

Actually? I feel bad for the Russian people

[calm bison]

I’m sure there are Russia citizens who despise Putin and the Kremlin. But they haven’t made themselves known and it’s probably for the best

[arctic grove]

But how the hell are we biased for believing that Russia is a worst country by almost every metric than the US?

[calm bison]

I’d prefer those people be safe and alive rather than punished for it

It’s the Vatniks and the Kremlin’s constant policy for war that makes Russia so unlikeable at the moment

[fresh flame]

Now just hold on a minute I'm not an American I'm a Canadian, there's a big difference will spell the word colour properly oh yeah and most of our country is uninhabitable lol

[warm stirrup]

US has horrible worker's rights, horrible working conditions, variable minimum wage with many states barely meeting liveable lives, numerous accounts of violence....need i say more?

[calm bison]

While those are terrible are we trying our hardest to fix those problems, we are not nearly as bad as throwing our own citizens in fucking prison for saying “US government bad”

How many Americans do you know that have criticized America

[warm stirrup]

The U.S. still throws people in prison for a plant lmao

[arctic grove]

I’m gonna disengage from the topic despite never having said the US is perfect

My point originally was; there’s no reason to shy away from China in a BF game because what THEY would say about it. I think we all know what China thinks of the US and West as a whole. A video game is NOT going to do that much more harm lmao

[ebon pilot]

most of the ones I know

[calm bison]

Blame Nixon and states are currently instating recreational weed use laws

[fresh flame]

I'm literally asked why is it always the US versus Russia how did this turn political

[calm bison]

And how many of those are in prison

[arctic grove]

Conservative politicians that make limited decisions for their own states

[calm bison]

Just don’t look at my state’s governor

He’s a fuckin clown

[warm stirrup]

This says otherwise

[arctic grove]

Inflation mixed with private corporations cutting costs by every measure, including not paying their employees decent wages (which is dumb)

every country has violence, and believe it or not the US is not the most violent country lol

[calm bison]

Chances are those will be instated in red states

Which are known for their stupidity

[arctic grove]

anyways, sorry for getting derailed

let’s not give a fuck about what China says about a game, because it doesn’t matter, and they hate us anyway lmao

[calm bison]

Just Blame Nixon

Moving on

Nerf the RM68

Now

I’m no longer asking

This is a threat

[arctic grove]

how about rm68 ADJUSTMENTS

[warm stirrup]

Sorry guys didn't mean to escalate things but to ask for a war game vs anyone besides Russia is controversial

[arctic grove]

[arctic grove]

No worries man

[calm bison]

Just increase recoil and decrease damage slightly

[arctic grove]

I think I got too carried away anyways, because in general those topics are really interesting to me, but it’s nothing personal against ya

[warm stirrup]

That new Rm68 skin tho

New brawler skin too

[carmine rover]

i was just playing a round of 128 conquest and some guy was advertising his crypto in all chat

😭

and everyone got on him and started clowning him

[fresh flame]

As they should, most crypto is a scam

[next sorrel]

dr pepper is the best soda

[upbeat sand]

What

[carmine rover]

yes

[upbeat sand]

Dem crypto boys getting desperate going into games now

[carmine rover]

Fem cryto boys??

😨

[upbeat sand]

The F is next to the D

[carmine rover]

we dont claim em 🙅‍♀️

[next onyx]

Jesus christ.

[copper ice]

clusterbomb bans approaching

[upbeat sand]

Poor ACR always the neglected one

[sturdy socket]

you don't understand i'm not addicted i just need to smoke it every day

sounds like what you'd hear from a guy running the aek in bf4

[upbeat sand]

True

[next onyx]

Oh fuck I just recently read up that something got 6.8 Remington ammo.

[upbeat sand]

Dose people are basically I'd say our version of MW2 Xbox live 360 players

[next onyx]

The same round that the ACW-R uses.

Would be cool if we could load standard ammo into the ACW-R and work off a higher RPM.

[upbeat sand]

ACW R dosent have dat much amo tho

Wouldn't higher rpm just = more reloading

[next onyx]

5.56 was 30+1.

That's the variant in bf4.

ACW-R has always had extremely fast dry reloads and medium-ish regular reloads.

It's weird. Cause you can work off a smaller mag size but if the reload times are pain it isn't worth it.

It's why I'm somewhat excited looking forward to a "Good" ACW-R - A gun that can be used for its niche of a faster than average reload for aggressive use.

[kindred flint]

58-12. 71 resupplies 24 caps (13 caps rest def) ...still lose

oh well, thats my daily match done for the day at least

[wide shore]

Hey Way, you excited for the extendo mag on the M16?

[warm stirrup]

Y'all see that discord is getting rid of the numbers after usernames? And making it so you have to have a permanent username? No more changing?

Basically a social media site

[next onyx]

Truth be told I'm half excited half worried.

35+1 rounds will be just the right amount and no heavy barrel (I'm assuming) will certainly keep it in check.
