Do we even know what he was actually banned for yet? Could've been something in game that happened.
And thihs discord isn't DICE run so it was the admins decisions to remove him here
where is enders lol
the only thing that could've even remotely been "targeted harassment of devs" is the response video to the wild shit alex said in the bf podcast
There's also the fact that the community manager tried reporting harassment against the developers multiple times, to this response
Maybe just kill battlefield once forever
uwu
So I don’t have to suffer when there’s the 1000th chinese hacker
What am I missing here?
i mean its just a week tho
This seems like what we already know?

Nanana Booboo ✋😝🤚
Exactly my point. Enders hates playing the game, complains he can't play the game, only a week ban and I'm just confused what the fuss is about
this is sad that you are getting restrained for a week and starts crying
Maybe he needs a 7 day touch grass pass
That's why kids and ladies and gentlemen you need an Asian parent
Community manager tried reporting harassment against the developers months before the enders incident, to which he was met with said response
Then you become a hacker
are you playing dumb or actually dumb
Oh well that's region specific
Well he did call the dev an idiot but i guess that’s too much for dice
I see I see. So basically T0TAL tried to say to the team "hey guys this isn't okay" and head honcho went "okay guys we can't do anything that's outside the games jurisdiction" Seems fair
Maybe stop making random decisions and remove the stupid cannons from jeep and transports
Anyone that watches enders streams knows he doesn't use voip or in-game chat
The issue is why he got banned
correct, so the million dollar question is how did the enders ban happen if he doesn't use game chat?
I honestly don't really care if he got banned or if anyone else get's banned
hell. If I got banned I'd wonder why. Usually they give a reason
but if it's just 7 days that's fine
7 days is nothing. I'll go and do my second job (destiny 2) for a week
ngl I forgot what a ender was
an Ender is those tall black and purple things in minecraft that teleport and drop eyes of ender
Thank you lad 
You're welcome 🙂

Maybe Enders should become a minecraft youtuber. Would fit his brand
OR a destiny player
all we do is complain lol
what brand lol that's his irl name
if the game is horrible it must be said
AJHHAHAHAHAHa
That's like being called richard
Who tf names their kid enders

I’d hate my parents if they named me that
would rather name my kid Richard to later on being called dick than ender
That's so goofy. I've never known anyone to be called Enders. Like theres summer or indigo or Daisy or Bartholomew but not enders
True that fam but again once when you are trying to go on a red dead redemption, smear campaign is still a thing, if you have low honor
Yes, harassment while he can't even defend himself
like it's the first one I've ever heard of
ah
Who's harassing who?
For some game like Elden Ring yea
Like the last name smith comes from one of your ancestors being blacksmiths within the village and that's how they got that name
but Ender? I'm not sure at all
I don't think DICE do, but you can get some pretty good third party stuff
aww
alright
at least someone gotta sell it
i don't mind wearing some battlefield gear irl
Yeah. Like I think Displate has a ton of BF posters you can grab
What would dice even sell as battlefield merch?
and you can get some BF3 dog tags from that collectors edition
Dogtags, T-shirts, Pants
Maybe some accessories
Shirts, dog tags, figurines
Posters
I can't wear figurines either
Would these not be US army t shirts?
this is how you spend more on marketing than the game itself
no-pants
no-pants indeed
HAHAH YES. ANGEL ON MY BALLS
they would sell notepads
Keychains maybe I'll get
Bottle
Yes it is...
How can one profit off "war" clothes without including the army in it?
to pin them on my bag
bro how do you think family names came around
I'd be down for that
They did it with classes during BF4
t1 skins for nerf weapons
My history teacher
Hear me out
False honor
Ak50
This is illegal
You think someone just randomly said "Oh yes, I'm a farmer but my last name shall be smith."
I ain't pinning anything that isn't T1 yet
Impersonating military personnel is illegal silly
So is cosplaying illegal 😱
Reason why dog tags can't look similar to army dog tags
As military no shit
What if... it's dressing up as Colonel shepard from MW2
It's not. Seeking perks of being a service member when you are not or were never one is.
I don't think we actually have that perk in Aus for vets or current service members
This is false
You get a concession card though
I am in the military now.
X-box sells some merch
I know.
It's game related, not actual military related
Huge W from microsoft
The pullover hoodie is actually kinda nice
I don't own an xbox but I'll gladly reel that in
The uniforms in games are almost always wrong or out dated anyways.
Game companies also have to pay for the licenses to use real names of guns
Usually they'll name them something similar tho
There are some general names.
Save money
the p90 has a generic name
That's why we have MW2 weapons being named like really stupidly
It's like viccodin and hydrocodin
the water bottle is lit too
Battlefield water bottle ™️
It's over guys
EA bought water
EA owns big water now
👍
Did they do this with BFV too?
You can wear general stars. Just so long as you don't claim to be a vet to get perks.
If so I missed out big time
Marksman Kills performed how do i get that weekly challenge complete?
Official dog tags and custom dogtags for fun are different
just an example lol
Explain it to Dr Douchebag above
man thought it's illegal to get a t1 badge based off a game
LMAO
Marksman or sniper rifle kills from 200m
Absolute clownery
but then again there are other 3rd party websites that sell at quite a cheaper price
for unofficial merches
What was your MOS?
what service rifle did you get issued with?
or any service weapon according to your unit
M4
SAR21 for me
Though my last unit didn't have anything ever issued to them
rip
They took the management part out of the squad management update? I think it’s time I look for a new FPS franchise because this ain’t it. Whoever makes up Dice these days is an embarrassment to the industry and they deserve any ridicule they get
I went from Airborne > OCS > to recruiting and retention.
It's due to a reservation system
seems like your adventure is more fruitful and worth it compared to mine
You can reserve spots for friends
lul i doubt that.
mine's boring as heck
I got hurt in OCS.
Idk what that even means but it looks like I’m going to reserve my time with another FPS franchise. Thanks.
rip
when the make or break feature of an fps game is whether you can manage your squad
lol
No, this is just the straw that broke the camels back. Re-introducing half-baked features from 2005 isn’t my style. Enjoy.
means if you create a new squad you can cop the slots for your friends too
then it will be open to public
after a certain time
Yeah that’s great but what about the Management features they showed off a couple of weeks ago with kicking squad members and what not? Let me guess, another “visual bug”?
yes
Reserve spots for friends
there you go
and when will squad management comes?
they'll likely officially announce it completely
Lmfao. The only company on the planet that uses the visual bug excuse for features that were available 15 years ago.
Also anyone notice one of the portal vehicles has a skin to unlock?
with dice? Who could tell
Leave DICE alone. Leave her alone.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WqSTXuJeTks <- Replace Brittney with DICE
at this point i don't care if the game is messed up at a patch or so
leave the multi billion dollar company alone
there's still other battlefield games to play
i would like to play other battlefield games but the hackers dont want me to
it ain't COD so BF is a ++ for me
they're just a small indie studio they can't possibly look at the spreadsheet and see that all the portal attachment values are fucked up
Possible skins coming to portal vehicles?
Don’t tell them about the B17 skin
Ah. I am just radio.
My heart's a stereo
how to boost morale for your troops: Play the Battlefield theme
watch every soldier's days get better
I am attached to JFHQ in my state now.
Literally felt my heart rate increase when the tension music started playing yesterday near the end of a losing round as tickets were dwindling down
my workout music
New battlefield theme don't hit the same as old battlefield theme
I am just their G6 on drill weekends now.
That's how I've felt for all of the themes since BF2 lol
lol just a pawn
BF1 theme is just pure edge
BUUUUT! I do have an admin token to the active dir so that's cool.
Bf4 and bf1 theme were perfect in my opinion
BF1 my first BF game a decade later after I played Bf2
when I finally got a new computer that's able to play current BF games right now
Nah. I do stuff with accounts and tech support stuff.
Bf5 and 2042 theme don't really hype you up
Yes, but we have LTs all the way up to captains before the major and ltc at the top. Enlisted has nothing to do with it.
all of the auxiliary 2042 stuff was written for an entirely different game than what we got
music, "story", etc
I have access to everything they do and am on backup on most things. But we all have our separation of duties normally.
When the theme starts playing in 2042, makes me feel sad for losing lol
I vibe more with video game music than Gen Z music
i wouldn't know, this is the first bf game where i've had to turn the music off
fallout 1 ambient sounding shit
not sure about this but i guess dice could implement an in-game spotify feature
with websites like how you create custom portal servers and stuffs
👀
when you have a squad you wanna jam with
just to rock through the entire match
Doubtful
Plot twist: you could link your spotify but only in the tuktuk 
no pls
that means i'll kill anyone for the tuk tuk
Mckay and Dozer cruising down kaleidoscope bumpin spotify
i turn off vehicle radios each time cause them music ain't my vibe
I probably won't like whatever Mackay listens to
you won't like what PAIK is listening to
you know you can deactivate in-game music right
yeah i do
Country music blaring while driving the jeep 
Dozer goes heavy metal
What about Irish
Dozer has Gauntlet from Payday 2
Do paik and Sundance listen to girl music?
POG

:kek:

and the AIs listen to generic BF themes
For some reason I can see Angel at a Foo Fighters concert
Teenager paik being a kpop Stan.
^
Blasco definitely listens to the Spanish theme from Pirates 4
To be fair. The battlefield themes are a banger.
cause they're AIs and they listen to the themes
they easily kill you
it boosts them
They listen to Chinese music because they aim bot you across the map.
💀
Am I wrong?
Imagine if AI shoot to the cadence of

Irish I could see have like a 90s rap soundtrack
you're not wrong there
Boris just listens to Cheeki Breeki
but if bots could snipe there will be no snipers in your team
Technically bots snipe with any gun
I just tried to picture if AI had grapples, hacking, turrets as far as the eye can see.. it's a beautiful nightmare I cant look away from
Imagine 64v64 but everyone is McKay?
Throwing knives only 128 Mackay
Everyone flying around like attack on titan
sundance nades only
Boris 128 turrets only
Zane 64v64 grenade launcher only
when the svk bot targets you 
Riot shield only
Ngl dozer shield only would be amazing
bashing each other as you should
Natural answer to "1v1 me bro"
defibs only
Crawford turrets only
TIL Payday 2 has Spanish dozers
Imagine everyone spamming the grenade launcher?
Ew lol
Is it fucked up I was thinking of that writing it down?
Alright here’s an idea
I got my cheeks clapped by the GVT bot
FFA on the Kaleidoscope skyscrapers with Sundance only and the grenade launcher
No guns
No melee
Just the grenade launcher and Sundance
concussion nade only match
Syrette only
it's only outdone by the mortar ai
ey
apparently zain has metal legs
time to hack his legs using rao
Yeah he has prosthetics.
🧲
🧲
you should be able to 5 second stun him with EMP grenade
128 free for all zain
Airburst launcher only
Yeah no.
airburst is op, lets stun Zain
it'll give Way PTSD
Is it ironic that as a Zain main I hate that shit.
I'd be game if I could shoot holes in Sundance wingsuit to make her fly off in crazy directions
lol isnt her name a pun on icarus who flew too close to the sun
or how about she just gets knocked around like helis used to in older bf games
it'd be funny to see her trajectory get messed with
im surprised that's not a feature actually
rotor blade collision?
just let her parachute after her wingsuit becomes hole-y
so that any cunt that parachutes onto my copter gets blended
128 free for all blasco
Jammer only
warzone has this
Don't remind me that rotors aren't on the hitbox 
KEK
V22 osprey > Condor
cause big blades
it'd be lame to make rotors kill when the condor has no rotors
engines
But you could make damaging parts meaningful to balance it out
Make the condor flames kill?
Condor can only rotate one way with an engine knocked out
i missed hovercraft wall climbs
Same
and the hokum pre nerf cannon
pre nerf 50 cal cannon on condor/hind
Boris pulls the short straw has to climb out on the condor wing to slap that on the burning engine as they spiral down
I do not miss this at all.
Beautiful lag
My console crashed while playing today. Just shut it straight off. Haven’t had that happen in months.
have you guys seen that shit where the entire server stops for about a second and a half?
And BF1 came out almost a decade ago
Technology moving forward constantly I see 
Fun
f. u. n.
^
Like seriously though
omg transgener 🥺 thas me 🏳️⚧️🫡
Quite based indeed
y e e s
2042 looks worse, sounds worse, plays worse, has worse servers, and doesnt even have a campaign
Literally the only benefit is its own downfall in that its live service, meaning it gets released buggy and isnt a complete game until theyre done updating it
live service and annual games really are the poison of this hobby
thankfully cod and many other live service games are dying off and that eventually will creep into the corporate analytics
COD dying off?
it's the most popular franchise in history
Activision reported their highest ever earnings so not sure where this is coming from
While not entirely, you gotta see the massive amounts of criticism MWII is recieving and how low the player count for PC is
I don't deny that
it was the single biggest pre-order game in over a decade for the franchise
What up everyone!? New here! Anyone down to squad up!?
it is a commercial success and that just makes COD have more interest not less
besides, the talk about the game isn't that people are sick of the franchise, they're sick of the systems
Thats what i am saying, people are getting tired of the bullshit and its becoming more vocal year by year
that's been said for the last 7 titles
but it doesn't change anything that there's no loss of interest
COD outsells battlefield, it's closest competitor 3 to 1, it's not even close
Thats true
Don't get me wrong im not saying the game is entirely dead but the complaints have become more visible, the cycle continues anyway
Problem is they can do whatever they want they have no competition
Xdefiant might become a decent competition if it doesn't die 2 weeks after it releases
Does anyone have this problem where when I'm in a party with one of my friend it kicks either me or my friend out?
It's like OW or Destiny or EFT. They just do whatever cause nothing is like it
Hell, even siege
what

If you're looking for things to complain about you'll start seeing more of them is what he's saying
it's not been out for a year how can you do that

Absolutely nothing
I saw Straatford's mention of this today.
At the least, the ability to take over as squad leader via a command request from a squad leader who doesn't give any orders should be included in 5.0 squad management.
Finally unlocked Boris tier 1, 60000 dmg with sentry achieved, it was hell
Congrats
I grinded it back before he got his buff
THAT was hell
But only like one circle below the current hell it is
Boris needs such a rework
The sentry literally tickles enemies.
It’s much better as a spotting implement
+1
Highlights targets
yes its great as a buddy who watches your back
and another set of eyes
Which honestly, it shouldn’t be too powerful. I’d much rather they take the conservative route than the CoD sentry gun route
Did they stop doing this after BF1??
We don’t want it mowing down whole squads
No it was in V too
uhh not sure on 5 memory's hazy
V definitely had it
Seems like an odd thing to just remove for no reason
Was very helpful when someone was sitting with a V1 ready to go but they wouldn’t use it
i never understood how to get any amount of kills with sundance's smart gren
Is it kills and assists?
i dont think i have a single kill with those grenades even tho she is my second main
You could probably get vehicle assists
yea
the grenade barely deals any damage to the vehicles
Scatter grenades are obvious
and while that thing is reloading the vehicle is gonna heal back
But the smart nade if it damages a vehicle and then said vehicle gets destroyed, you’ll get those assists
the range of the grenade throw is too low
as soon as i get close enough i just get instantly killed
why delete messages?
because i skipped past the "smart" grenade part
Gotta grind my bro
Prioritize the scatter nades
and i cant even imagine how much grind all these T1 Sundance players have done
They’re more useful
But the smart nades actually do a really good amount of damage to vehicles, especially light tanks
Yeah its not too bad now but maybe Id like it to be a bit more resilient to damage so it can inflict more damage with time
i cant rly afford to spend any more time on the game than i already do
Yeah its a real grind.
well i guess thats out of option for me then
Is there no first person for armor anymore? I can't be the only one that thinks the 3rd person sucks and is ridiculous to aim with
but tbh having something as a goal makes the game a lot more fun
are we talking abt bf2042?
Yes
like I know its a grind but it makes you want to play more and more
im trying to get all ps5 trophies on the game
but one big issue
is your keyboard/controller broken
theres first person
when you have unlocked all you want its kinda just a KD game after
Nah I just can't find the keybind and for some reason it defaults to 3rd person
3rd person for what?
there is 3rd person in bf2042?
.
i dont get the idea of not adding kick option in "Squad Management"
Yes there’s first person
theres even the black screen bug in first person that was in bf1/bfv
Should have the prompt on the side of the screen
love the recent all chat tho. everyones having fun flaming everyone 
i dont have any friends to play with so i cant complain abt that
¯_(ツ)_/¯
I’ve had equal amounts wholesome and toxic interactions
Which I’m not complaining about either way
They’re both fun
Had someone compliment my outfit once
lucky
ive never had any interactions at all
one time tho i sprayed a di*k shape on the gates of renewal
Dozer is the best specialist to play for fun interactions lol
Best meat shield specialist

falck with ammo crate, angel with med crate
Hosting a full xp server
All maps, all eras, 128 players conquest
Well moderate xp
Conquest World Tour
If anyone is interested
Can't have hardcore for moderate xp silly
Only core
Oh good they finally nerfed harcore giving standard XP? That was always such a lame way around unlocks
Well not with ai that is
Says the dude that has to play a mode with like 25% HP. Bet you play scout too.
Core settings can gain moderate xp against ai
Damn, no denial, and he talks shit like a dude sat in the back of the map the whole time too
I really was spot on
Anyone game for 2042???

I LOVE IT WHEN MY BULLETS FORCE BEND AROUND PEOPLE IT"S SO FUN
or just go straight through them
Bro, I'ma be honest with you, that's a skill issue
I was honestly staring at the chat for like 5 minutes waiting for that specific message
Yeah yeah yeah
World Tour conquest server if anyone is interested
still dropping 50+ kills a match. would be more if my guns shot straight and not at what seem to be fucking ghosts
Please don't try and advertise outside #908101543646089236
My apologies
I haven’t played console since like PlayStation 2 so this is new to me
Multiple times. Been getting it since bf5.
It won’t give me the option to recalibrate
its not in game settings
you sure?
im pretty sure its suppposed to be there
ps4 or ps5?
or what console
nah its fine

im 22 and struggling with technology sweet!
Changes to console aren’t affecting game-
no?
try to open the game
and restart the game if you had it open since before you changed the display settings
So final question what’s the best loadout thingy to run in ur opinion
loadout thingy?
like the gadget?
Like medic or ect
ohh
well it depends on play style
assault if you wanna play mostly solo and not rely on anybody else
medic if u have friends
Zero friends whatsoever
recon if you wanna snipe and stay further from front lines
Ohhh
or engineer if u use vehicles
each class has its own perks and gadgets
its actually quite easy
Tysm
took me less than a month to understand how it all worked
yw
Ugh restarted game and it’s still bugged on the screen
This is quite upsetting
could you send a screenshot or smth from the game's settings
i dont have access to my console rn and dont rly rmbr everything in the settings
I got it-
I forgot my Tv wasn’t from the states and had the presets from back home in Ireland
Yes sirrr
Bros definitely 12
Tunde is that you alt bruh
Doubt
So hard playing medic lol
Just like the free Casper skin during shutdown event
And Paik too
Tho for Angel my bcoins grew wings

Heard some head adornments coming to the game sometime later
Surely it's a good time to VPN into NA yea?
I agree
cant believe how many peeps dont want to wait for revive, even though im literally next to them
last week's battle pass mission where I have to revive 15 players was actually harder than i thought lol
i actually managed to clears it because the early games has a lot of AI that wait for ress
My favourite is when someone has a hissy in chat when you don't pick em up
And they're literally in a killing field
Guys I think season 5 is not the Last one actually
Too many stuff is supposed to be added and I dont think they will make it in time
Squad management, map rework, Jet changes, Attack Heli changes
#maketakedownsfirstperson
True
Also New map
The ice hammer
Don’t forget the vault attachment rework
Oh naw I'd be spewing
Best but longest takedown lol
Caving some 60 year old woman's head in
Only way to do it
I mean they probably have maps done, but those other 3 are big things and Idk, feels like either they: get feedback on this stuff and do it their way by adding something overpowered to them or smth so they dont have to give it a second thought or actually implement really good stuff
b0nk bat0n
Also tank reworks to do with thermal sights
Like Attack Heli to make them stronger and usable
that's dawae
They won’t 😉
If they do then I am impressed and angry at the same time cuz IT would mean that they could actually implement these stuff earlier on but idk didnt want to??
They had more important things
Well I Hope they give a season 6 a try
They dont have map reworks anymore
season 6 we go to the moon
And giving US quality of life season 6 with a New map
Exactly. More content cause less fixes
Would be cool
I mean I’m down for a stranded rework to fix how terrible a lot of it is
Stranded is the map with the ship right
Yeah the big blue one
Yeee
I like stranded
Its so frustrating, dont know how people like this map
It needs like the B and D door closed to vehicles
I get a ton of kills in that map lol
Have C be the way through for them, and have some steps up to the top of the ship
I mean inside the ship alright, but other points are disappointment
Like honestly, my fixes I could do in a map editor in minutes lol
You just place some containers in the doors so vehicles can’t get through
And then put some scaffolding from manifest up on each end of the ship
Dude, first of all vehicles need a fckn rework 
Transport ones especially
They just said: ah yes making them vulnerable will Fix it
Completely forgetting the feedback they got on Discord
Transports need to be tanks, with no offensive capability.
Like Idk, dettaching Grenade launchers from them, giving them actual transport capabilities
I’m still advocating for a transport only nightbird
Nightbird is the tiny attack heli
But I certainly know those are transport vehicles
Cuz I saw them in categories
And I know for a fact that transport vehicles shouldnt be a killing machine 9000
Ah alright
I mean it’s kind of already in the game cause it drops you off in hazard zone
When you get dropped into hazard zone they use that helicopter to leave you there
Iirc
i think flares need an overall nerf
They do
I mean like, they should be transport vehicles, so they can BE tanky, that's alright, but not make them a complete killing machine with all possible weaponry
cause the speed they recharge and the length they last makes it someone can just wait behind a bhuilding, go in kill some, flare then go back
Uh I dont know about this
Flares also shouldn’t work if you get soflamed
Cause that doesn’t work on laser guided missiles
what bout doing what the stealth hele has and making the other attack heles choose between flares or emergancy repair
actually that might need some tuning
that'll make it too weak
If they drop support after S5 its over
Stealth heli shouldn’t carry flares tbh
True
also i hope the RPGs get an extra 4th rocket
why are we having issue with helis having flares?
I think it's fine, it's just that we have less rockets this time
cause 3 rockets would be enough to kill a tank that has no attention span and dosent repair but when they do they just end up being on 1 rocket off
I wished we started out with enough rockets ammunition to destroy a whole tank tho
Liz especially
Lis i think shouldnt have more than 2
I am just saying transport vehicles shouldnt be Attack vehicles that's all
since the rockets give you full control with em
Light transport air vehicles would be a great idea
I only have a issue with the stealth heli having flares
THATS WHAT IM SAYING
I NEED my Transport nightbird
Team spawn on them. Would be a great lil thing
Doesnt it ruin the idea of transport vehicle tho?
Would mean we have more team pilots
Light vehicles would be easier to kill
Light vehicles get taken out in like 1 M5 be 3 on the hind
See there’s already a model for it
What y'all doin
The nightbird can get to impossible places though
bf4's transport id say was good
basically
take the hind and condor but remove the front canon
keep the minigums
Alright fair point, but it feels like one Rocket could destroy the transport Heli which would be meaningless to have it
the problem i’d say is the AOI turrets on the condor
bf3 even has that transport vehicle im talkig bout
actually i played with the portal ones and they def feel different from the base game ones
Dont know if its abandoned projext
so its gonna be another vault weapon situation
The portal little bird feels so much better too
where people say its underpowered and feels off
But that one Jet was supposed to be in game
That arrow-looking one
Dont know the name tho
i want the A10 W A R T H O O O O O O G from portal tho
BRRRRRRRRRRT
I have a huge disliking for it in real life
BRRRRT BRRRRRRRRRRRVVVVVM
F-16 has a better cannon screech
Dm it to me I’ll send it
Yup
The flying dorito
Yup
This one was in files I think for a long time
Cuz it was season 2 leak
Or smth like this
That thing would be terrifying
It can drop two 30,000 pound bombs that go through 200 feet of solid concrete iirc
Maybe it could be an order or something
With squad management
Coming into the game
All you hear is ENEMY STEALTH BOMBER INBOUND then you just get cluster bombed
#addtheblackhawk
Oh hell yeeeaaah
I mean that would add to the atmosphere of the game
And make it more serious
Like I dont expect big crater or anything
Just a big explosion
And make it destroy the elements that can already be destroyed
Like Spearhead and that point with electric stuff where u drive through IT and you just see particles flying around
Little sparks everywhere
Why
Ah yes
Steam numbers
Yeah its kind of over
That's why they need to revive the game with season 5
Yup
Eh we have 3 major reasons
For that
Not defending but I see why it could be that way
this is a personal thing but i wish support was blocked from using snipers
- Pandemic
- Frostbyte update
- New Staff working on game learning frostbyte
since nearly all the time they use it for selfish reasons
Wdym
falks using snipers to self heal at the top of buildings
angel players just resupplying themself so they never need to go down or die
Then you’ve got the one angel using an SWS for CQB
Did DICE ever give out a statement explaining why they ditched first person takedowns in favor of third person?
"we strongly feel that it adds more impact and-"
"it's cuz CoD did it and it makes money"
I honestly never really minded the change
well imo some of the animations are way too fuckin long
Well the reasoning is obvious, doesn’t really need an explanation
if you pull one off, chances are you're gonna get killed while doing it
Oh yeah but at that point just shoot the guy in the back
and the guy you just plunged a knife into his neck is gonna walk away
i remember actively going for melee kills in battlefield 1 because those animations were fucking ace
True
i almost never get the urge to melee someone in 2042
First person animations were awesome
That's the thing
People dont see the meaning in IT anymore
Cuz its 1. Too long 2. Looks weird
And first person would be better
2042 has too many players, too many ways of knowing where the enemy is, and the animations are way too long
it's almost guaranteed death
the camera fucks up, the sounds don't play correctly
Yeah you actively put yourself at a disadvantage cause you lock yourself in an animation
some of them are just plain fuckin stupid
at least in bf4 you're invincible during it so you don't get cucked out of pulling it off
What kinda Bf4 we’re you playing? I always died
i might be getting it wrong with bf3
i know there's a bf game where you can melee people and be invincible during it
also some of those prone melee animations in bfv were really cool
the headbutt
I only go for melees if I’m playing dozer of if it’s a roof sniper
idk. 2042 melee is so watered down and pointless
Luckily you won’t really be finding yourself in many situations where melee is needed
From my experience anyway
Now should I continue with my uni coursework that is due tomorrow or finish off my heli feedback post
If I get to the point where my primary and secondary are out of ammo and I need to bash the guys skull in I’m just letting him get the kill
bf3 does have iframes for the animations, but not for the entire melee animation, they are in place around a third the way in, you can die if you're shot before it
I think I’ll just redeploy
Why
@sour meadow while animations take long i dont die when doing it, u just gotta know when to do it, also doing the animation when someone is layn down its easy to knife them from the front, i think 42 is pretty decent
are we getting friday night battlefield tomorrow

Listen to this episode from Inside Battlefield on Spotify. Tom Straatman (Community Manager) is joined by Ali Kaporchali (Producer), Jac Carlsson (Game Designer) and Jaime de la Puente Boal (Game Designer) to discuss the Quality of Life changes coming to Dozer and Irish during Season 5.00:19 - Intro01:30 - Soldier camera movement07:55 - Irish C...
I’m curious as to what they mean by ‘improving’, so this will be interesting
More camera motion when running?
Alrighty then
You can just disable it though
"new states for APS " boot -in state (1 sec) 2nd state - searching - 3rd state - intercepting state (5 seconds) - cooldown"
Ah camera centering, that’s good. I’ve always noticed how the reload animations often shift the camera to the side when you are stationary
add headlight to Dozer's shield
looks like the aps is getting a little nerf
APS Being less effective is a good idea.
But.
With the current state of explosive spam it will probably just make things worse.
maybe ammobox shouldn't replenish explosives, only Angel could give you explosive ammo?
as of now angel is kinda useless

the loadout box is useless, nobody uses it. Well, I guess you could use it as a cover 
why would you want to switch loadouts during a fight lol, makes no sense
totally not rigged with explosives
meanwhile Irish has shield and APS
The talks about the camera and the golden rule reminds me how in Doom 64 the camera was down by your chest to make things appear larger.
I’ve not gotten to the Irish bit yet, but if they’d made it so that it only goes on cool-down for large projectiles that would help the ability to indefinitely protect tanks while not necessarily hindering infantry gameplay
Oh wait no you can’t just plonk it down next to a grenade and delete it now :(
7.5 seconds until it can destroy projectiles again
I loved the clutch grenade neutering
in fps games that is a short time
1 second ‘booting up’ time after placing it, then a ‘searching’ state, and then a 5 second ‘destroying’ projecticles state. after that a 7.5 cooldown state
The fact that it doesn’t just destroy one projectile then go into a cooldown state is nice
Imagine lol
getting irish tier 1 would be hard for players that dont have him yet
woah ..
u get notified where the enemy projecticle is coming from?
;0
"dozer getting movement improvements as well as extra xp events for "pushing the frontline/charging in"
shield useable on ziplines, improved hitreg/hitbox and range with the shield, faster turn and sprint.
bullet deflection having increased spread.
improved animations when attacking/ deploying the shield etc.
shield FOV being capped at 70 to give a better peripheral view.
taking hits/shots will feel more impactful.
assists for dmg done by deflected bulelts and distraction assist xp event."
yes i would like your RLM emotes plz
A dream come true 
Faster turn is so nice, I had to use my mouse pad twice in one direction to do a 90 degree turn
Wouldn’t capping fov have the opposite effect?
no kick/ban/lock of squads will be bad, what if I want to matchmake with just one friend and make a 2 member recon squad? you'll have random people joining your squad and start spawning/shooting near you, while you want to be sneaky
i'm just going by what they said lol, i play on 95 fov but they said the "majority play on 55- 69 fov" so they are capping it at 70
What was it capped at before?
Me at max FOV 

Thats what i use it for
Ay some good dozer changes, the boi deserves it
bp rank 95. i might just be able to get to 100 after all
good to see Tors camping in the back of the map with irish aps can no longer be immortal
Sry for not understanding but does that mean the trophy defends less explosions per time ?
Easy, you have 3 weeks. Just do the missions and youl be 100 in an hour
I'll collect my thoughts at the end regarding this.
A New podcast today or tommorow?
Biggest issue I have with Dozer is when I pull down the shield and the slowdown still works in place.
I mean if thats the rsn they make it weaker its stupid/nonsense, as someone said before the explosion part in this game is too much, irish is totaly balanced for that counter, making him less effective will be bad for the majority of the community just because 5% of ppl so the tor defense the rest should be punished for it ?
Nice, what is it about?
I dunno they need to make him less of an idiot killing with the shield and actually make him work like a proper shielder.
I wish that community vote thing of favourite portal included XL rush that's my fave when it's on
Wait I’m confused by the fov cap
They say that for people between 59 and whatever fov they will cap it to 70
So does that bring it up to 70 if you use those values?
And if you have fov set higher will it change dynamically?
Who knows.
If it brings it down to 70 that’ll feel really awkward
