One of the main problem is that the game looks bland and boring af too

It doesn’t aim assist like in single player games. It doesn’t work like some people think.

No need to reply ping I'm still here but I'll explain how snap aim differs from normal.

shell ermine
In a world where crossplay with PC is the default with minimal to no input based matchmaking its better if aim assist is overtuned rather than too weak

it’s too early to say unplayable now , probably 2042 still supports two years later or more

aimassit just hover overs the target but u stll got to move in that person direction

Aim assist will purely assist your aim. The way bf5 handled it was to push your aim in the right adjustments, largely eliminating the need for microa djustments.
Large adjustments was on you.

if your crosshair is touching a target, even just barely, snap will reposition your crosshair to their character model/hitbox

Cod's level is just cheating.

No, it will snap if you aim down sight right away. If you hold aim button to prefire it doesn’t reposition anything.

Reddit moment

the weapons themselves have little to no resemblance for future maps tbh, I don't think a single gun hint has ever been used in the game for future seasons
as in, for skins that they are equipped to
calm bison
TBH those skins resemble the skins released for the RM-68 and PP-29 in Season 4 more than anything else
They look really nice
Also the best skin for the RM-68 is its S4 skin
Fight me

2042's map selection, even post reworks, is still among the worst of the franchise

Orbital is the only launch map that I wouldn't be annoyed if it came back for another game

Orbital 128 is ok
shell ermine

they really did help the map flow out with that central new point
shell ermine

remote kiln
you need to remember, most of the skins that are released now have been in the game asset wise for months, as in multiple seasons, there's only been a rare few exceptions they've actually tied those to events, and they were mainly for Easter eggs
next onyx
Breakaway redo my beloved.
fervent rose
i just think it's complete garbo on BT

There's a bunch of leviathan rising skins still yet to be released. One with zain and the shorty.
If it weren't for the ospreys it wouldn't be shit.

Spawns are bad in this game in general.

fervent rose
i played a lot of conquest on bfv but in 2042 i cannot
next onyx
It's one of the few good 128p maps alongside orbital.
remote kiln
that's the one thing I want
fervent rose
128 exposure is probably the most fun one if the lobby is cool
but it also has the potential for awful cliff camping shitters
next onyx
Oi bibbiz have you checked for bf3 map references in the files?
shell ermine
Exposure was cool at launch because it was being compared to the launch maps

I don't mind 128 when it works but it's not worth the reduced content.
fervent rose
128 when it works barely feels different than 64 it's just a bigger map
and it has so much potential for poor behavior, we all know bf players zerg
shell ermine
One reason I hate 128p is that it reduces the impact of a single squad
next onyx
I don't groan anymore at hourglass but it's as "good" as hamada, a bad map.
shell ermine
In 64p a single squad can turn the tide of a match/defend a flag themselves
shell ermine
In 128p 4 guys will get overwhelmed by a dozen every time
remote kiln
pretty much as explicit as it gets
next onyx
Can't say I've been overwhelmed.
With my squad.
Provided in a competent squad.
But still.

being able to be the decision maker on who lives and dies for 32 other players compromises the break part of breakthrough
only thing you're breaking through is who you want to kill first

Common with a lot of people, hardline was not very interesting to many
I always thought bf1 was directly after bf4
remote kiln
was there a Rush or Breakthrough style mode in HL?
hardline didn't have rush or BT, it had heist mode.. which was a mess even more than 128 BT
royal swan
This thought was years ago
fervent rose
did heist have multiple sectors though or was it just 1 sector with attack/defense

no it was capture one objective and carry the cash to the checkpoint
next onyx
Then take the packages to the drop points.
They were dynamic and if the bagman died the point would relocate.
remote kiln
and hope you don't all get wiped after the bagman dies
next onyx
What.
robust vapor
Yes
next onyx
If you carry the bag you have the courage to push.
robust vapor
D0k always play objectives
fervent rose
idk, i never played it, but it sounds like an annoying CTF mode that bf players arent ready for
nor will bf players ever be ready for
fervent rose
no i dont want ctf in bf lol
next onyx
There'd be a middle vault and we'd take the money back to our vault.
remote kiln
I don't dislike the concept of what hardline was going for but it was such a terribly executed game that it will be eternally the worst iteration in the franchise
fervent rose
i love it in good games where people play with teamwork, not bf
next onyx
You could steal points.
From the enemy.
The lines were hilarious by the criminal announcer.
You could kill bagmen and take those points to your vault.
And organising successful heists was amazing.
shell ermine
I don't consider Hardline a mainline BF entry. It's more like BF Heroes or F2P or something
remote kiln
for its time it was a mainline game
shell ermine
2042 is by far the worst mainline entry
remote kiln
but now, it's regarded as if it didn't exist, quite rightfully
next onyx
It's why I want blood money it come back in this with dice reutilising the sattelites from hazard zone.
shell ermine
And that's taking into account how bad BF1 is too
next onyx
Oh man and transport choppers in hardline were amazing.
shell ermine
Although I have played far more 2042 than I did BF1... so maybe BF1 is the worst one after all
next onyx
We had capture the bag in hardline. Played that. It was ok.
remote kiln
CTF was a very well done gamemode the only problem was not adding a timer for the objective
fervent rose
Although I have played far more 2042 than I did BF1... so maybe BF1 is the worst...
it's hard to say this without feeling bad about it though
next onyx
Hotwire was the worst mode because people would just use trunk RPG.
remote kiln
it could easily come back and it'd be fun
fervent rose
bf1 is clearly a passion project and theres a lot to praise about it
but fuck i hate the gunplay and movement
next onyx
Bf1s vision was consistent.
shell ermine
Yep
next onyx
It's nice.
shell ermine
BF1 has the best launch of any BF that I can remember but christ if it isn't an awful game in the end
white geyser
Hotwire was the worst mode because people would just use trunk RPG.
Hotwire help me collect plenty of money and only reach 3 million cash

@queen dagger did you ever get into an oil tanker on hardline, rig it with c4 and send it into the enemy base?
I assume you're partian.
shell ermine
Worst gunplay in the series now that they've mostly fixed 2042's gunplay
queen dagger
all the time
queen dagger
its literally so cheap if u drive it into downtown A objective
next onyx
Oil tanker nukes were hilarious cause the explosion went through walls.
queen dagger
u can kill everyone on it because the oil tanker goes through walls
fervent rose
I wouldn't say it's awful
i think the movement is awful and the gunplay is in the "unsatisfying but acceptable" area
next onyx
But they were such a massive target too.
So it's like. If you caught a rocket you'd be dead.
queen dagger
do u know what sweats used to do
next onyx
Hm?
remote kiln
what battlefield 1 did do was inspire an entire sub genre to be created from the game's success, which is a testament in itself
very few games can achieve that level of success
queen dagger
on downtown. they sit in a cat truck. and keep shooting the tanker when it spawns
fervent rose
what sub genre is a result of bf1?
queen dagger
because the explosion is so huge its a guaranteed kill if not more
next onyx
Oh yeah where it spawns.
Oh God don't remind how annoying that top gunner was in the cat.
They'd always shoot at me when I was in my helicopter.
remote kiln
what sub genre is a result of bf1?
all the saturated historical FPS games we have now that have been successful, or otherwise
next onyx
Then I realised you could just spin around and they can't get you.
queen dagger
the most annoying vehicle is the armored suv
fervent rose
i mean, historical fps games are a staple since moh
remote kiln
it's easy to forget but back then it was not regarded as a "for its time" iteration before the game came out
queen dagger
mcc wasnt the bad
its so slow and huge
easy to hit with grenade launcher or rocket
next onyx
I remember one time we actually had a party SUV with a minigun. Genuinely run and gunned.
remote kiln
also why people were so surprised when the game was revealed
fervent rose
well it makes sense, ww1 as a battlefield game conceptually doesnt make any sense (at least for the guns, nobody would want to be using all bolt actions)
but they made a fun non authentic game

if you guys complained about bf 2042 cringe and corny voice lines, you should hear in need for speed unbound... dear lord, its like straight from a disney movie... you're in a middle of a race and all of a sudden you hear one of your opponents say: "im behind but im enjoying this" or "i don't mind losing to you" ... jesus christ... what the hell are they doing... is it the same team of bf? i mean its frostbyte engine and everything...

criterion writing department did the 2042 stuff, conspiracy theory or fact

remote kiln
the more open question I've been wondering is where exactly does the franchise go from here
there's been a game for every sort of timeline iteration so far, very few limited areas left
fervent rose
i see four genuine good options: a total reboot, a bad company 3, a bf1 sequel, or a 2142 sequel
remote kiln
also why releasing full priced games is not sustainable for the longevity of a franchise
remote kiln
bc3, not a great sign that's happening anytime soon
next onyx
There was also "Freeze or I shoot" - as a SWAT officer. You can imagine what happens shortly afterwards.
remote kiln
DICE said not too long ago that they themselves weren't sure why people liked bc2 so much
fervent rose
that was like a decade ago now
next onyx
It was full of personality.
remote kiln
it wasn't, it was just before 2042
fervent rose
hopefully they could figure out it was Rush with maps made for Rush with fun dynamic destruction that was enjoyable
next onyx
The game made around rush also worked to its favour as you could experience the maps for what they were.
Hill 131 I think it was called was amazing.
fervent rose
the campaign was also fun and light hearted which put people in a good mood
next onyx
But Vietnam was its own league.

the more open question I've been wondering is where exactly does the franchise g...
spinoffs. Dynasty Warriors has 9 mainline games, and an almost equal number of spinoffs in other franchises. We got Zelda, Persona, Fire Emblem, everything. Do Battlefield but with other franchises. We already got Star Wars with Battlefront, now we need some more stuff like Titanfall or... Other games. Idk.
next onyx
Good sounds also went a long way.
fervent rose
Nah, we definitely dont need a spinoff as the next title
next onyx
They were echoey and impactful.
fervent rose
that's the exact opposite of what BF as a franchise needs
next onyx
It needs to get back on track.
fervent rose
return to form
next onyx
Not a bunch of corpo goons spearheading something they don't know.
fervent rose
don't put in feature like 128 just so you have a new marketing selling point unless its actually fun
the dice devs back in bf2 did tests with 100+
this was like 20 years ago
remote kiln

and theres the biggest issue, I don't think you could ask a single person who has an answer for who could solidly say what the next 3 games should feature timeline wise, and that's a massive problem
it's all just suggestions of what could be done, but it's not material
ebon pilot
i only say this every time someone asks that question because i want a battlefield titanfall spinoff
fervent rose
see i think that part is cool
the timeline being all over the place just means they can do whatever they want
next onyx
But they need to get stable footing before they do anything.
fervent rose
as long as it plays well and feels like a core battlefield game, they can go to space
theme/setting doesnt matter
next onyx
I would love it if titan fall developed alongside battlefield. Have them explain parts of the story in their own games the two communities can relay on.
fervent rose
a bf map on a space station would be cool
ebon pilot
as long as it plays well and feels like a core battlefield game, they can go to ...
But what does that meaaan. Nobody can agree what this actually means because everyone's core to battlefield is different
remote kiln
the timeline being all over the place just means they can do whatever they want
they can, for a time, but whether we like it or not a game's identity is cemented on what people see from the outer picture over multiple games at a time, and if a franchise doesn't have that, it looks soulless/lacking direction/disinteresting
which is how franchises die
the more you consider the question the more you realise the franchise has to move away from its current cycle, it's not sustainable
fervent rose
That's why they should do the bog standard but acceptable modern military shooter titled "Battlefield"
remote kiln
and then what after?
fervent rose
a bf2/3/4 sequel
After they achieve success with a return to form they can do whatever they want
remote kiln
but they cant
fervent rose
sticking to 1 timeline or setting isnt a necessary part of Battlefield
remote kiln
customer perception does exist, and whether DICE say or otherwise, they're limited on what they can do
the franchise's perception of mediocre is not sustainable
for the health of the franchise it has to change
fervent rose
But what does that ***meaaan***. Nobody can agree what this actually *means* bec...
A combined arms military shooter that has class based systems and a good variety of modes and maps. and the maps should feature dynamic pieces and destruction

not remotely close
is it though? because it's closer to form than the last 2 titles in the franchise
remote kiln
lack of gamemodes? there's literally portal
narrow fossil
ive said it before, and i'll keep on saying it. All they had to do was basically copy BF4 with all the improvements from the last 2 games and thats it. thats all they had to do lol
royal swan
Oh brother
remote kiln
one aspect of a game doesn't define the overall picture
fervent rose
i'd say bfv was a lot closer to form than 2042 will ever be
patent pivot
and lack of personality

you're just saying words
fervent rose
specialists are a definite line they should not have crossed
royal swan
Is this another misguided individual
narrow fossil
couldnt do that though, could they lol
patent pivot
rush is a downgrade in this game
remote kiln
ive said it before, and i'll keep on saying it. All they had to do was basically...
easy to say, but it would have been regarded as a commercial failure
patent pivot
only 32c

They just add breakthrough mode in the portal like Idk I didn't check the update since I took a break, playing BF 2042
patent pivot
and lack of vehicles count

and the bots are basic and easy, even on advanced

Usually I see portal matchup where you only grinding by capturing the objective to flying around with transport choppers
royal swan
Yeah the switch sides ended with bf1
patent pivot
there is no switch option in battlefield 5 either
when I'm doing solo, and the game won't allow me to switch side on next map load or round
royal swan
Was not in bfv
patent pivot
that's embarrassing
remote kiln
lol my guy
fervent rose
you had to exploit friend join button to team swap in bfv
remote kiln
you realise you auto switch correct?
patent pivot
that means I have to go into a portal editor and swap out map position ordering
to even play on the opposite team for that specific map
remote kiln
I hope you know the game automatically puts you in the other team on the second round
because that's been there for months
fervent rose
which is buggy, still
remote kiln
bugs with the auto match maker, happens
fervent rose
"switching to defenders" and i play attackers twice in a row
patent pivot
even I find bf3 VU more somewhat fun than 2042
fervent rose
how is VU more fun isnt that dead
remote kiln
I very much doubt all these people crying about returning to form have played battlefield 1 or 5 for more than 5 minutes
patent pivot
how is VU more fun isnt that dead
I mostly do solo PvE
and soon, bf4 WR is going to be amazing, more than 3 VU
fervent rose
it's going to be dead within 1-2 months

I could care less if there's no populated servers
fervent rose
very little to be hyped about
patent pivot
as long they kept the servers running

pretty selfish thing to say

Most of the time, every team I get on tends to lose. Mostly

Like a comp player or something

I see what you're talking about
I don't really care for T1 on the specialists. Just the guns
Though I think I need to bc I think there is a trophy on the PS5 for it
misty briar
T1 is fun to do when u got like nothing to do
wide shore
My last specialist T1 was Lis back at the end of Season 1
wooden grove
That's true. But I play a mix of games. Mostly Tower of Fantasy, Outriders, Division 2, and Remnant 2
misty briar
Lis needs limited rocket capacity. Since u t1. Whats ur take on that
misty briar
Naa i didnt mean for t1
wide shore
I know.
misty briar
I mean generally not having infinite rockets
wide shore
What difference would it make whether she gets them slowly automatically, or getting them with the current speed of the ammo boxes?
misty briar
Oh lemme tell u
wide shore
Unless you recommend her not get any rockets at all till she dies
misty briar
Most solo ppl play lis cuz they cant rely on finding ammo or getting any. So they play lis for the rockets. Lis rockets are pretty weak. If ppl would focus on stingers and (forgot the name of the ground focus rocket), ground and air vics would go down way faster. Lis aint bad but shes the whole reason vics can stay alive 24/7. there are other factors too ofc, but she playing a big part
warped bramble
Does this game have the guns in it where you don't have to wait around for the other signal or anything like that you can just ride in and say hey this is my town now and fly up to the enemy car but only before your team has the right move?
misty briar
In short, lis being less effective than engis with normal anti vics. Ppl mainly play lis cuz they solo play / infinite ammo
Making vics way more effective
wide shore
With the commonality of APS on ground vehicles and flares/stealth helis. I don’t think it would have that much of an impact if people used more stingers/javelins.
This also completely hinges on the assumption that if Lis gets affected negatively, that people will switch to those rockets. They might just switch to another class. Then there’ll be even less engineers.
misty briar
It would have an impact cuz whats harder, dodging 3 lis or avoiding 3 stingers. U can pop flares but more locked on stuff the less effective a vic is. Not the case for lis rockets that u can just ignore or dodge
Second part, ppl that play engi are many times annoyed of vics. It def wouldnt reduce the engi ammount by enough to negate the effectivness
Even if vic dodges all stingers they would half way less kills
Means more effectiveness
wide shore
Idk. I think it entirely relies on conjecture.
misty briar
Id bet money on it
Alot
That less lis means more effect againt vics
Its just making sense
misty briar
My hero
warm zealot
misty briar
Just yesterday was flying myself and had like a lis rocket comming in each 20 secs and like 7 in total. That didnt do shit at all
7 stingers would have gave me way more trouble
And even if they didn’t kill me, i couldnt make constant kills
This has non to do with conjecture tho
