you just... really suck at jokes

royal swan
#

They are not adding the trinket to bf2042

hybrid totem
#

why not add the noisy cricket

arctic grove
#

They should add some weapons just for the meme value

royal swan
#

You got the crossbow

#

For that

hybrid totem
#

you can't create meme value dude

arctic grove
hybrid totem
#

meme value is made by the community

arctic grove
#

And the kolibri already has great meme value

hybrid totem
#

making things for the memes results in things like, oh, I dunno, the reaction to the santa skin

royal swan
#

It would remove the meme value if added to a game like 2042

arctic grove
#

Or it would increase it

royal swan
#

Definitely remove it

hybrid totem
#

100% remove it. Definitely a Fellow Kids moment

arctic grove
#

Most people who play 2042 nowadays are bf veterans

#

And they know the kolibri

royal swan
#

I would prefer a different meme gun instead of a old one we already played with

arctic grove
#

Yeah you’re right

hybrid totem
#

why not a rainbow gun that shoots polka dots and honks like a clown horn every time you fire

arctic grove
#

But if developers can’t came up with another meme gun the kolibri could at least give them time I guess

arctic grove
#

Wonderful

royal swan
#

Flamethrower

#

Taser

hybrid totem
#

still want emp ammo

arctic grove
hybrid totem
#

...they have a taser

royal swan
#

Nail gun

arctic grove
#

Only way to make a flamethrower work would be through a tank flame or elites like in BF1 so I don’t think we’re getting that

royal swan
#

Bfv fixed that problem with equipment

Need a baseball bat to bonk the enemy

arctic grove
#

BFV didn’t deserve the hate it got

arctic grove
hybrid totem
#

it's not though

royal swan
arctic grove
#

Ok

arctic grove
royal swan
#

If y'all were playing the game during it's life cycle, you would've gotten a baseball bat

#

Which did a bonk sound

arctic grove
#

I got BFV in 2021 from ps plus offer

royal swan
#

I have it on my console version

arctic grove
#

Same with 2042

#

BF1 because of the 75% discount on steam

royal swan
#

Totally ask for meme weapons when Alex comes along

arctic grove
#

Best 35 soles (peruvian currency) of my life

royal swan

He works on weapons

“You can call it: cat-a-pult”

#

the S barrel desperately needs to be worked lmfao

#

why use anything else when that exists?

#

or at the very least a 30% spread increase

kindred flint
#

dude didnt you read the description? short barrel allows bullets to leave the gun faster, so it increases rof

Wednesday

kindred flint
#

joined a discarded match in progress...get 16 revives OMEGALUL holy shit just farming them on the ship

#

also apparently picked up someones RM with a sb on it, wtf is that disgusting thing NotLikeThis

warm stirrup
#

Sb?

broken horizon
#

short barrel ?

warm stirrup
#

Ah

kindred flint
#

yeah

broken horizon
#

rpm is crazy on that thing

kindred flint
#

i was like did mine bug? because i dropped it for another gun trying to revive someone

warm stirrup
#

Rpm takes no skill

kindred flint
#

but then i realized the sight was different...and it shot waaay faster, thats so dumb dice

broken horizon
#

leo true

warm stirrup
#

Hopefully the 20% spread change nerfs the rm

royal swan
#

And depending on feedback with this change, it was said it could be implemented on lmgs

warm stirrup
#

Hopefully smg's too

#

Ac9

royal swan
#

Seems that the vault secondaries are also getting attachments as well soon

warm stirrup
#

Are we getting the bf4 Irish skin? Or was it scrapped?

ebon pilot
#

half a mag
but which mag? the smallest mag? the current mag?

warm stirrup
#

Seems pointless now with the irish nerf

royal swan
broken horizon
#

yeah im disappointed with irish nerf as well

#

and now since sundance can only spam scatter so well rip angel_oldschool

royal swan
#

I'm not really disappointed, it's bound to change again with the feedback

#

Like how they reverted the slowdown ads when using drum or extended mags

broken horizon
#

im sure feedback would be blocking the tank shells with aps i reckon? not sure....

#

oh yeaaah extended mag nerf was just crazy

warm stirrup
#

Only way dice will find feedback is the new season 5 challenges awarding double progression for certain specialist

broken horizon
#

BorisMoment more xp for new players

acoustic seal
#

the irish nerf next patch is going to introduce the nadepocalypse

royal swan
#

For a while I hope

#

The feedback will save us

broken horizon
#

ikr

acoustic seal
#

they're even adding mini nades so you can bait them out easier

#

like holy fuck

royal swan
#

Like it did with lis, and the ads slowdown on the drum mags

warm stirrup
kindred flint
#

omfg that flame launcher on the cav is annoying

warm stirrup
#

According to test footage

royal swan
#

Honestly, as long as the mini nades don't one shot, I'm fine

acoustic seal
warm stirrup
#

Ah true

broken horizon
#

thats why i carry smoke all the time.

acoustic seal
royal swan
#

Yeah smoke extinguishes fire

acoustic seal
#

no they blow up on impact with the smoke bubble

#

like how you used to be able to hook smoke with the mackay hook

warm stirrup
royal swan
mighty holly
#

leo hear me out

#

Gas

royal swan
#

Feedback will be important for the first few weeks of s5, so make sure you keep talking about the important shit that needs changing

acoustic seal
#

ah yes, the battlefield 2042 developers, who are well known to take feedback with grace and due consideration

royal swan
fervent rose
#

yea we need immersive sneezing

#

for sure

broken horizon
#

just hip fire leo

warm stirrup
#

Same devs who changed sundance from having 2 of each grenade to just one scatter?

royal swan

broken horizon
#

i really hope she doesn't have 2 scatters at the same time

fervent rose
snow estuary
#

alright fellas i need ur inputs

#

what cpu should i get just for this game

royal swan
#

And she used to have a emp option

snow estuary
#

i have ryzen 5 3600 rn

warm stirrup
#

2 scatters, 2 emps, and 2 anti armor

snow estuary
#

2080ti btw

acoustic seal
#

don't upgrade just for this game

royal swan
snow estuary
#

i was joking when i said for this game

fervent rose
#

yea upgrading just for 2042 is wack

snow estuary
#

but i would like a new cpu

royal swan
#

It's better to upgrade

#

The games are getting more out of wack with performance

snow estuary
#

should i cop the 5800x?

acoustic seal
#

2042 isn't a good benchmark, it spends a lot of time spinning the cpu doing nothing

broken horizon
warm stirrup
#

You need a 4900 for minimum requirements for 2042

snow estuary
#

where does the r5 3600 compare to that 💀

royal swan
warm stirrup
#

Issa joke silly

#

2042 doesn't use gpu lol

royal swan
#

The more important thing to worry about is what storage drive you are downloading it on

acoustic seal
#

also directx12 bottlenecks the fuck out of games no matter what your gpu is

royal swan
#

Always download on a ssd

snow estuary
#

HDDs are terrible

#

can not imagine using one

royal swan
#

I'm stuck on HDD

snow estuary
#

UPGRADEEE

#

HDDs are DISGUSTING

acoustic seal
#

gotta wait for software devs to get their heads out of their asses because we're at the limits of what hardware can brute force

royal swan
#

All my games are put on HDD because my SSD isn't big enough

snow estuary
#

im glad steam lets you swap them over

#

lol

royal swan
#

Surprisingly the only problems I have with 2042 is loading

#

And packet loss

broken horizon
#

5800x has 8C 16T
3600 has 6C 12T

royal swan
#

My CPU is like 30-40 used when playing 2042

snow estuary
#

mines at 90 LMFAO

broken horizon
#

i have 5600x and i really should've went for 5800x CloseCatSmile

acoustic seal
#

2042 pins a r5 5600x, there's no way

snow estuary
#

do cpus come with thermal paste or is that seperate?

#

im about to cop the 5800x rn

warm stirrup
#

Remember when 2042 had 128 bot servers? Game caused performance issues for pc's back then so much iirc

royal swan
#

Idk I have a pre built r11 alienware PC from 2020

snow estuary
#

aint those overpriced

broken horizon
royal swan
#

Don't wanna talk about it

fervent rose
#

ye alienware is not a good brand

snow estuary
#

its fine

#

i overpaid for my 2080ti in 2020 too

#

i did not know gpu price markup was real

#

900 for 2080ti

royal swan
#

I just need to install a new SSD and I can enjoy 2042 without Loading problems and packet loss

acoustic seal
fervent rose
#

how come its a desktop with such a tiny ssd

broken horizon
#

yes ssd is must

kindred flint
#

annnnd another fun match fucking ruined by armor units 🙃

#

the never fucking able to die camping tor

royal swan
#

Glad my Alienware has a extra space for another drive

kindred flint
#

or wildcat...or m1a5

snow estuary
#

ugh i wanna upgrade my motherboard too

#

but thats a whole new damn pc

kindred flint
#

i swear they must have had our units too because there were so many fucking cunts in armor on that arica

royal swan
#

Seems like helis are coming back to bt again in the new map

hybrid totem
#

you do enjoy this game sometimes, right

royal swan
#

The new map also has zero transport helis

#

And jets

kindred flint
#

best part was the dude who goes 14-21 with 0 caps, trying to shit talk me leo

warm stirrup
#

Gaming has changed

kindred flint
#

with 14 caps...

royal swan
fervent rose
#

no we were complaining all the time dabber

#

"fucking host advantage"

#

remember not having dedicated servers lol

kindred flint
royal swan
#

I don't remember the last time I ever went negative

kindred flint
#

it really do be a wonder why you lose conquest games when some people have literally zero caps or defense time on the objective Hmm

royal swan
#

Maybe like during launch or beta

fervent rose
warm stirrup
#

Anyone going to be playing 128 breakthrough in portal when season 5 launches?

kindred flint
#

the thing was we were almost stomping the first half of the match...then a tor just camped on the outskirt of the map over between the 2 B caps and like...never died

#

must have had a pocket engineer leo

fervent rose
#

there'll probably be a 900000% 128 bt server surely

#

very hardcore

#

the hardest of cores

kindred flint
#

started the match off shooting the driver out of a stationary bolte....gunna be sadge when i cant do that anymore

warm stirrup
#

1000% one shot kill hardcore breakthrough

royal swan
#

They said that year one owners get a season XP boost when logging in for the first few weeks, and buying premium bp will also give you a season XP boost

#

Will it stack

warm stirrup
#

Xp boost is only 1 hour

kindred flint
#

the previous xp boosts have stacked so probably

royal swan
#

The season XP boost, or the one from the premium bp purchase is all season long

warm stirrup
#

You sure?

kindred flint
#

do we really need xp boosts though? shits already ez to max lol

royal swan
#

When you have a XP boost activated, you are given a timer

#

There was no timer present for the season XP boost

warm stirrup
#

It was a showcase not gameplay silly

royal swan
#

There is no implications that it has a timer

warm stirrup
#

There's no implications it doesn't either

#

Very vague

fervent rose
kindred flint
#

true...lvl 40 weapon, gunna be so balance OMEGALUL

fervent rose
#

it looks very balanced

royal swan
#

Found evidence

kindred flint
#

you get 1 shot...and you get 1 shot, everyone in the lobby gets a 1 shot

warm stirrup
#

According to test footage by content creators, deagle is only one shot to the head

royal swan
#

In the preview bp, the season XP boost is labeled as Full Season

kindred flint
#

2 to the body still gunna be nice

#

hopefully it has more damage over range than the mp28

warm stirrup
#

Revolver is already 2 to the body silly

mighty holly
#

Hear me out

#

Hollow tip 50

kindred flint
#

its a fucking revolver thats single action

#

and 1-2 less rounds pepestarege

warm stirrup
#

That's like saying the sfar isn't op because more people use the rm68 lol

broken horizon
#

i think the deagle rpm is high in 2042 than bf4

kindred flint
#

no one uses the m44 though lol

#

compared to g57?

royal swan
#

20% season XP is alot, thank god I have enough boins from last season to get it

#

To bad I don't have 2000 to get the 10 tier skips

kindred flint
#

i still havent spent a single boin

broken horizon
#

yup i skipped all the cosmetics this season

warm stirrup
#

Will anyone play breakthrough in portal if it's restricted xp tho. Betting only vanilla servers get moderate xp same as usual. Unless no ai.

royal swan

So did squid g silly

she knows what its all aboot? keanu

Does battlefield need jetpacks?

no, it didnt even need a wingsuit

dapper river

I love the premium mp9 skin

kindred flint

with the digital readout?

warm stirrup

Anyone excited for the scuba skin tho?

royal swan
#

Yep

kindred flint

"guys were doing everything we can to not add water"

next seasons skins look dope so far. art team is crushing it

Viking skins tho?

That's the third fucking time

Can you even dive under water in this game EA_Joy

kindred flint
#

no physics would totally allow her to dive into the water like a bird and fly back out haHAA

Games movement is an utter husk of even 10+ year old battlefield games. Lmao

That is such a troll cosmetic to give for people who payed a lot to begin with

If you are going to add suba gear it's gotta be given to hottie

#

Why does Battlefield decide to put me in a match that is ended 💀 what’s the point

arctic grove
#

But you are right

#

Movement even in BF4 is pretty slow, it’s just pathetic that 2042 movement is so….. basic

muted ocean
#

Real marching simulator

warm stirrup
#

Should traversal sprint return in next battlefield?

arctic grove

I honestly think 2042 movement needs third person platform level climbing

Imagine battlefield but with parkour?

Then do a backflip off the wall afterward

Peil krong?

#

I think it has to do with how 2042 does graphics and stuff

snow estuary

bfv definitely had some fucked graphics especially at launch

I hope they come up with at least 15 maps for season 5. There were some awesome BF 3 and BF 4 maps that should be used in 2042. Developers are you listening?

acoustic seal
#

i'd monkey smash my keyboard playing this game if it wasn't made out of aluminum

#

fucking fix the input

#

you get microstutters or lose input or something when your gun is firing, in practice it means you're over/undershooting people while tracking because the movements you make with your hand aren't what happens on screen

#

like imagine you're mid-spray trying to track someone who's moving and every bullet feels worse than the last

#

i don't know if it's an iq filter or people just aren't paying attention, but they'll swear up and down that nothing's wrong and it feels exactly like bf5/1

fresh cairn
#

I'd say I can't wait for it to be fixed but we all know that ain't happening

fresh lintel
#

Not to mention when you move left/right your bullets also tend to go more the direction you move.

Could also just be a console thing but god its so fucking annoying

acoustic seal
#

i've played shooters with terrible framerates and it's not that

acoustic seal
#

maybe it affects everything and infantry usually don't move fast enough idk

fresh lintel
#

I notice most with hipfiring and VERY rarely with ADS. But guns like AM40 and G57 struggle with it bad.

next onyx
#

Probably linked to desync.

fresh lintel
#

But with vehicles its more just: Pray to god the game loads well or the turret will move at mach 50 visually but still turn slowly.

Blinding you with the model.

"There won't be any new vault weapons.."

thorn yarrow
#

So what about showing the G36?

copper fulcrum
#

That's an AOW weapon

dapper river
copper fulcrum
#

It's called the GEW-46

thorn yarrow
#

Ahhh I see

dapper river
#

and it's not a G36, its a GEW-46 trol

thorn yarrow
#

That clears it up

copper fulcrum
#

Gets different ammo types and shit too

thorn yarrow
#

Idk they kinda rolled things out a bit weird with 2042 as far as guns and stuff

copper fulcrum
#

Is it pronounced G-E-W or like the beginning part of Gewehr?

fervent rose
#

goo gun

thorn yarrow
#

Guh ew

dapper river
#

Portal was half-baked and underutilized, it had the potential to be so much more howiecry

thorn yarrow
#

I was actually pretty hyped for it

#

when they announced

copper fulcrum
#

At least some portal creators are making stuff for it, but there's not many portal creators out there it seems

thorn yarrow
#

But yeah, it was kind of a big fat flop

#

I think a decent amount of talented creators didn't feel like putting the effort in because they didn't see the game lasting long

#

I assume

copper fulcrum
#

Maybe with Breakthrough coming in to Portal we'll get some more stuff

thorn yarrow
#

We can only hope

dapper river
copper fulcrum
#

DICE need to just unrestrict Portal XP

copper fulcrum
#

It's really stopping players from joining actual creative experiences which likely discourages them from making them

thorn yarrow
#

There's already xp farms even with the restrictions. Like heli cap farming

dapper river
thorn yarrow
#

If people want to exploit the xp system they will

#

lmao

placid echo
#

I still make modes every now and again, occasionally people join but not many

thorn yarrow
#

Truth be told, I think a lot of players don't really even know that portal exists or what it even is

#

Especially with lots of new players every sale on steam

manic siren
#

Is there still a post for infinite load screen fixes?

thorn yarrow
#

They probably just jump in rush or conquest and call it a day

next onyx
#

Flashback BT pls. YesHoney

placid echo
#

You can do some pretty creative stuff with the logic editor but since it restricts XP, much less people touch it

next onyx
#

I wish they could give you the option to modify objective types.

placid echo
next onyx
#

I hope.

#

BT chaos is alright.

#

It's super weird.

placid echo
#

128p Breakthrough on smaller Breakthrough maps lol

thorn yarrow
#

I've seen some pretty impressive portal game modes

#

but they're usually empty

next onyx
#

If Rush XL wasn't bad enough now we'll have this.

placid echo
#

Yeah the XP cap really neuters player attention

next onyx
#

The fact that you have to go out of your way for portal as well.

placid echo
#

Console players be damned they pretty much can't access it unless they have a PC. Although I am not sure if the Console Web Browser can use the Logic Editor in a meaningful way

#

I never tried

thorn yarrow
#

A lot of players view playing portal as a punishment because of the drop of xp on custom game modes and by that reason yeah, players get the ick and don't wanna touch portal at all

fresh cairn
#

I was more excited for Portal if anything but it got murdered right away sadge

next onyx
#

I don't see much of a reason to touch portal because it's just full of hardcore servers and shit.

#

If they linked AoW to portal and all that shit I bet more people would be willing to try out these custom mode.s

placid echo
#

Although I do like making pictures and 'promotional' images for my game-types :p

thorn yarrow
#

Hardcore game mode is great, but I want to see it supported in an official capacity in the playlist rather than modded into a portal server

copper fulcrum
#

Search & Conquer sounds like a CoD game-type lol

placid echo
#

shh :v

delicate hollow
#

I would only play hardcore matches for the rest of my life lol

fresh cairn
thorn yarrow
#

Hardcore is and isn't more skillful at the same time. I understand both sides of the argument but I love the game mode so damn much

fresh cairn
#

It easier

#

Anyone that says it's harder I laugh at

copper fulcrum
#

wtf are those modes anyways?

placid echo
#

Which ones?

fresh cairn
#

Haha funny bhop cross map 1 taps get nae nae'd

copper fulcrum
#

The four pictures you posted, the ones with unique names and pictures you say you've designed

placid echo
#

Brief Descriptions:
Search & Conquer - Round Based 12v12, Eliminate the Enemy or Capture all flags to win a round. Capturing a flag will respawn any dead teammates as manual respawn is disallowed
Distance Master - Free for All, Snipers and Bolts only, distance of your kill determines your score
Ground Operations - Like Rush but also includes flag objectives
Supremacy - Conquest Rush Hybrid, capturing all flags or reducing tickets to 0 causes enemy MCOMs to spawn, destroy them to win.

Okay, I was expecting just a one line answer but thanks lol

#

From YouTube vids I see there was a few more presentations as well pre match

#

Did they get patches out or did I disable it somehow

#

Everyone hated them so they removed em

Haha

#

Only good thing they've done since launchleo

dapper river

it was getting fucking annoying hearing the same 3 specialist lines every match, removing them was neccesary for longevity 343

The LMG

I'm talking about the gun that looks similar to a mg36

Ye it's basically a 100rnd M5

ARs are still the best weapons in the game though

I kinda like lmgs in the game but I only got the first one unlocked since I just bought the game a few days ago

LCMG is basically all you need

2042 is my first battlefield game I have played

Does small arms fire actually do any damage to helicopters?

nope

Unless you run AP rounds

Where’s the ammo caches at? Did they not put any in game

next onyx

Yeah there are none.

It's a shame too because they were great.

Yea I agree. I been just redeploying every time for it

next onyx
#

Ammo crates aren't too uncommon to be fair.

#

But I get what you feel.

brittle flume

Maybe they might add em in

#

Idk tho

next onyx
#

I doubt.

#

It doesn't affect me a whole lot because I play with assault rifles on assault.

#

Only time I ran out was when I used the scar as a Casper.

#

You can use up 123 rounds really quickly as it turns out.

brittle flume
#

I switched to single fire too to conserve a bit. But yea thanks . I was looking all around for them caches I thought I was going crazy for a sec

chilly jacinth
#

You could always switch mag

#

Since ammo is per mag type

gloomy otter
#

Or pick up a gun after killing an enemy or from your dying teammate

fresh lintel
#

Every enemy drops a little ammo pouch so theoretically you dont need an ammo box.

#

And then you get 3 ammo types to choose from so you basically never run out of ammo (sometimes you need to sacrifice performance for ammo if you run out ever)

slender isle
fresh lintel
#

Its all you need.

slender isle
#

Maybe maybe not, depends on the weapon

#

SMG

#

sure

#

AR sure

#

Shotgun sure

#

Sniper? not really. DMR? Not really.

#

LMG? ehh

fresh lintel
#

LMG you shouldnt be running out of ammo tbh. Unless you like holding down the trigger.

But its all dependant on your ability to aim and what range you engage at.

#

Average player probably cant survive off the pouches, or even runs out of ammo to warrant the pouches.

But I personally can survive off them assuming I dont die from A2G Bullshittery or some salty Sundance dive bombing me every time

slender isle
#

The only time I ever seem to run out of ammo is with my side arm, sniper, or if I'm running like any fast RPM weapon

fresh lintel
#

Depends on the situation for me. Snipers I tend to use in CQC so theres always ammo drops.

High RPM its dependant on how many enemies are there, and how often i'm killing them. Like today where I went through like 5+ players with a standard ammo AM40 and needed to switch to high powered lmao

slender isle
#

I often use it to spam through smoke or general area of players

#

this keeps them really at arms length and spooked to peak

fresh lintel
#

Ah yeah. AC9 has garbage reserve amounts anyways for a gun like that. So I can understand that.

I try not to spam through smoke since it actually disables aim assist and I like seeing my targets lmao

the ac42 is already exceptional and it will be, well unaffected by this patch

# remote kiln no?

the map reworks didn't do anything that people think they did, they added some obstacles inside common spots but most of the gameplay is still shooting up at/down from hills over a 100m span

if they found a way to cut out all the dead space between sectors then sure, but they didn't

remote kiln
#

don't pretend like the engagement distances between sectors isn't fundamentally different on basically every map

acoustic seal
#

they aren't, i'm still shooting people across the whole length of first sector discarded because every added angle is a 90° full body peek and it's not safe to do anything else

#

that whole garbage area in 2nd sector(?) is also completely unsafe to do anything in and you're shooting people around the fences/building more often than not

It’ll work the same way as it does in other bf games

And hey, dice could even search for other’s countries and their history in order to select the theme for the next game

As a peruvian I can offer the war of the pacific

#

I honestly think that companies who want to make a shooter about a past war should do that more
Not just go for the easy WWII option
They could search for lesser known wars
At least battlefield does it to some extent
BF1 was about the WWI, which not many people talk about
BFV also includes the japanese side and their presence on the pacific, not just “US good german bad”

If someone here ever has the opportunity to make or give the ideas for a WWII shooter, make it so that you play as a german soldier
