The complete optimization for battlefield

No crash

No bullshit

People need me

[robust vapor]

yus

[patent path]

aw Alex has left DICE

[pine roost]

I know ;(

No more bulpups

[pearl ridge]

1911 is pretty good with its impossible 17 round extended mag

[merry heart]

Sometimes I see people surf on their Casper drones in some videos. Is that still possible?

[patent path]

don't think so

[merry heart]

[quaint vector]

When I hear that few days ago I was big sad...

But hey, I wish him a good luck and the best in his new journey

[low timber]

Who are we now gonna pester?

[quaint vector]

Maybe someone new...

[low timber]

I guess Sam / Vanta is the second most active here

[robust vapor]

damn Alex is gone

now I can't wish for a SA Hellion

DX

I still want this rifle tho

[misty briar]

[robust vapor]

[tawny carbon]

Arx is where it’s at

[next onyx]

Can still wish.

Ak5c would be nice to see again.

[robust vapor]

the fact that the Hellion is similar to my country's assault rifle in terms of ambidextrous charging handle

but looks way more badass compared to the SAR 21

[pearl ridge]

You’d think that out of all the weapons in the world, this would be the one to be in this game

[robust vapor]

There are many weapons that will fit in the 2042 theme

Especially the ones you don't see in BF3 or 4

[tawny carbon]

My wife from infinity warfare and ghost

Futuristic acr

[robust vapor]

[mental delta]

Best Dice can do is some remade CZ-805 in Portal

https://tenor.com/view/pawn-pawn-star-20bucks-the-best-i-can-do-the-best-i-can-do-is20bucks-gif-15253458

[tawny carbon]

That have the ARX in BF4 tho

[mental delta]

Yeah but it wasn't that good, CZ-805 was pretty enjoyable though, as well as ARX-160

[frozen loom]

Give us an actual chain gun.

Like Rampart in Apex.

[misty briar]

You become spongebob squarepants @frozen loom

[mellow pecan]

Hiii

[robust vapor]

henlo

[mellow pecan]

Wsg

Is Bf2042 good now?

I pre ordered it

And like played it for 2 weeks

[robust vapor]

yeah it's good now

[mellow pecan]

After it released

[robust vapor]

compared to launch state

[mellow pecan]

Is it worth that $110

[robust vapor]

definitely no

[calm bison]

Hey DICE

remove the TOR from the call in menu

Please

[mellow pecan]

😭

[misty briar]

Tor has to be

Gone

[remote kiln]

if you started playing seasons ago you would have gotten the battle passes for free, which would have been possible to argue its value, but certainly not now

[mellow pecan]

Oh alr

[misty briar]

In value that they make up themselves

[light nacelle]

gives TOR extra 3 shells in it's disposal instead

[misty briar]

The battlepass got nothing rly to offer so „worth“ is far from true

[merry heart]

man i never knew watching a really good crew flying a HIND would be so satisfying

[misty briar]

Now u know why ppl play hind

[fickle wharf]

poor condor

[light nacelle]

I saw people hitting RPGs to heli like it's no problem

[fickle wharf]

feels like flying a container

[light nacelle]

took me 5 ded to get even one hit

_ _

[misty briar]

Condor can still be fun

[frozen loom]

The AC9 is horrible.

[misty briar]

U just gotta fly good

[misty briar]

U bad af

Ac9 is one of the stronger guns

[frozen loom]

Me and the the gun is bad AF.

I'd rather use the K30 with the drum.

[light nacelle]

no gun is bad, the user is

[misty briar]

Guns can be bad..

[light nacelle]

just use throwing knife smh

[misty briar]

Ez pz

[patent path]

throwing knives are busted lol

[calm bison]

Bad take

[merry heart]

use fists and kicks

[light nacelle]

me camping at spawn with TOR and 2 other engineers stealing other's kill and annoy the frk out of other tanks

_ _

waiting for the shell to reload is pain though

[misty briar]

[calm bison]

Yeah I sure feel pity for you and your AA death star

[light nacelle]

tank only though

[calm bison]

You may prioritize tanks and such

And that’s fine

[light nacelle]

the portal experience

[hot hazel]

ea try not to make worse missions for battle pass challenge impossible

[calm bison]

The missions aren’t even that bad

[hot hazel]

this week just seems tedious

too much stuff with the vehicles

[calm bison]

Wait

You have to use vehicles in a Battlefield game?!

Crazy

[light nacelle]

I prefer ramming enemy's boat with a LATV though

[hot hazel]

not everyone needs vehicles to get kills

[light nacelle]

seeing them in low health, running away when I just march into them

[calm bison]

Maybe not

But giving you an incentive to use vehicles isn’t going to kill you

[light nacelle]

which guns you like using btw ?

[solid imp]

Anything that goes

[calm bison]

Whatever needs to be T1’d next

[next onyx]

My friend is getting the 880 done.

I feel sorry for him.

[solid imp]

That's the misery I'm living right now, advancing the AC9, XM8, 240B, and VCAR

[next onyx]

Those guns are many, many times more usable!

[calm bison]

GEW-46
RPT-31
PP-29 (Almost done with this one)
BSV-M
Maybe the SWS?

[solid imp]

They are and they're all... fine... but not like ARs, which I strongly prefer... But I'm done with ARs on T1 😦

[next onyx]

Blasco is good with the ac9.

[low timber]

I already did it

[light nacelle]

no portal gun ?

[next onyx]

Ee

[quaint vector]

Thanks god I have all Weapons Tier 1 'd

[solid imp]

[low timber]

Got the S5 sniper to T2 yesterday

[quaint vector]

But it was pain for some

[vague rivet]

I want jeep stuff for the support class!!!!!

[solid imp]

I know that I won't get the snipers done... that's just not it for me

and probably not all sidearms

[low timber]

And need ~50 kills with the BFP .50 to T1 it.

[calm bison]

Remove C5 from assault and give it to support

[vague rivet]

YEAH!!!

[solid imp]

Jeep stuff for support class?

[calm bison]

Or at least block Mackay and Sundance from C5 like Lis is blocked from the RPGs

[calm bison]

JEEP STUFF

[light nacelle]

mackay'd and C5'd

[vague rivet]

you DO know what jeep stuff is right?

[solid imp]

beep beep on a hill that's steep

[robust vapor]

this you right now

[solid imp]

oh you mean like c5 jeep stuff???

[robust vapor]

and this is your grave

[solid imp]

fun jeep stuff??

[robust vapor]

[frozen loom]

The dirt is you.

[next onyx]

I'd finish the guns off but I have 0 interest in the game.

[robust vapor]

no i'm the torch light

[next onyx]

Stale as fuck.

[frozen loom]

Nah.

[calm bison]

it’s called soil!

[light nacelle]

pls gib Recon more cover for driver

[robust vapor]

giving your flowers pseudo photosynthesis

[frozen loom]

What guys have you not unlocked?

[calm bison]

Hey Way

Try and T1 both jets

[next onyx]

I have everything unlocked kek.

[low timber]

Game is +1.5 years old and we have only two new gadgets, smoke launcher and SPH launcher.

[next onyx]

Jets a big no.

[calm bison]

Big yes

[frozen loom]

Then, what are you talking about?

[light nacelle]

how do you even fly a heli though

[next onyx]

Totally worth it.

[quaint vector]

I have the Jets Tier 1 'd

Goooood

[calm bison]

Based

My F-35 is at Mastery 69 unironically

[light nacelle]

I can't even get it still to shoot

[next onyx]

I'd get the last guns to tier 1 but not enough maps.

[solid imp]

Heli's are easy enough to fly in BF, but being effective as a pilot is a different thing

[quaint vector]

I need to Tier 1 Condor

[light nacelle]

Nah, I have a massive skill issue in heli

[solid imp]

Ah yes the Jeticopter

[light nacelle]

I can barely fly

aiming is near impossible

[solid imp]

fair enough... could be a control sensitivity thing?

[light nacelle]

I'll devote myself to hunting other air vehicles instead

tricking heli to flare so friendly Wildcat can finish it off

[tawny carbon]

Aiming with a heli to kill people is like aiming with a weapon at someone to kill. That’s how it works for me.

[light nacelle]

something must be wrong for me then

[tawny carbon]

Y1 breakthrough with lil bird is my thing.

[light nacelle]

It feels like I'm using my mouse on a vaseline surface

[tawny carbon]

Is it to fast to aim with the heli?

[light nacelle]

probably

there's a big delay also

[tawny carbon]

Try lowering it. Abit

Is your fps maxes or over the monitor hz?

[light nacelle]

not sure

[tawny carbon]

I always run a fps counter

[misty briar]

U prob just got vsync running

Thats all

[light nacelle]

V-Sync is off

[misty briar]

Then its sus

[tawny carbon]

Also look up tips in tricks to use a heli for movement and control on YouTube. And figure out your settings and setup from there. Also play around in conquest all/co op with bots. To practice killing and movement of the helis.

It takes a while to get used to piloting the heli.

[vague rivet]

Upgrade Dozer with a gun port in his shiled.... The M12 and the shield... 😄

[frozen loom]

Make his shield able to electrocute people like Clash from R6 Siege.

[tawny carbon]

Crawford and Dozer mashup when?

[light nacelle]

put Crawford's magic cannon on Dozer shield

[vague rivet]

OR... self reloading claymore shield......

[robust vapor]

Just give Crawford the KPV MG

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OB7ohcyDVBg

[solid imp]

Let Crawford deploy his turret on any pickup truck map spawned vehicle.. turn it into a technical

[robust vapor]

Drive by MG

[vague rivet]

Same for the M5....

[tawny carbon]

Crawford should be able to hold a heavy MG. Take it off of the turret and hold it halo style.

[misty briar]

That would be pretty cool and fitting for gim

Him

[tawny carbon]

Also give Crawford a master chief outfit.

[robust vapor]

AT rifle

[solid imp]

Also. Let Boris choose the type of turret to deploy. 1) Current version, standard rounds ; 2) Short range incendiary launcher, low rate of fire ; 3) Very small C-RAM... little R2D2 shooting up at air vehicles when they get too close

And give the poor thing some shielding around the base so only the turret itself is essentially visible

Boris has such a rough go in the game... dude has no luck at all when it comes to getting improvements

[vague rivet]

A new bot.... A rumba size bot that spins at 1800 RPM with 4 katanas attached...

[solid imp]

and when it encounters Dozer it just goes tink tink tink against the front real fast

[vague rivet]

People will be constantly jumping. 😄

..is if they weren't allready.

[solid imp]

little ankle biter most effective bot in the game all of a sudden

[vague rivet]

Capable of slashing tire on all the wheeled vehicles too....

[solid imp]

EOD bot with options: 1) Repair torch ; 2) T-UGS attachment ; 3) Open slot that does nothing unless Support places an ammo box or med crate into it

[robust vapor]

https://tenor.com/view/attempted-vehicular-manslaughter-vehicular-manslaughter-toby-fox-dog-deltarune-gif-24056472

This one you mean

with turret shooting at you

[solid imp]

[robust vapor]

istg that's actually scary if it auto shoots people while you manually control the wheel

[solid imp]

I've got ideas man... I keep putting it in surveys 😄

[static prairie]

Servers broken atm? I find game and join but then black screen appears and i get kicked out

When its loading the match

[solid imp]

Then again I also kept putting "Stadium best place in all of 2042" in my surveys and...

[robust vapor]

exit game -> terminate EA and Steam for PC

restart the apps and relaunch the game

[static prairie]

I relaunched the game lets see if this works

It did, ty tho

First time running into this problem lol

[robust vapor]

I can't help you otherwise

[vestal flicker]

a

[dusk dust]

The pacing is shit

Sometimes I spawn in die

then im walking for ages

[chilly jacinth]

Your pacing is bad

[hybrid totem]

After every map has been reworked, you still walk for ages? This is why we can't have two maps per season.

[willow sky]

they should add a controllable ranger

[solid imp]

"What's gotten into this dang dog?? GET OFF ME"

There's a ranger trying to pet another ranger on the head

Ranger riding on a tank

[white dagger]

I surely can’t be the only one having issues seeing anything on the map Reclaimed. The color palette of this place is so weird, I can’t see shit. Objective names, player names, let alone player positions. What colors do I have to use in the settings to finally see anything on this map?

[robust vapor]

the dog ain't as bad as that spider in one fps game

that will latch onto your face like a facehugger and electrocute you

leaving you vulnerable

shit is funni

[solid imp]

spider nests randomly spawned throughout the map

mackay just goes over it of course

[robust vapor]

inb4 mackay grapples onto a spider nest trap

oops

[solid imp]

Falck dark side version doesn't have a syrette to heal people, gadget is putting down new spider nests

[robust vapor]

you have less than 5 minutes to sedate yourself cause real life DoT

and no respawn for sure

💀

DoT 10x more potent than 2042 incendiary nade

most aware player(s)

[frozen loom]

I didn't know there were easter egg reloads.

[arctic grove]

Which one of the barrel attachments reduces bloom the most for LMG?

[robust vapor]

Hi, barrel attachments don't reduce bloom in general

[open trench]

Been wondering for a while should I have my vertical sensitivity be the same as my horizontal sensitivity (console)?

[robust vapor]

Some of them reduce muzzle flash

Bloom falls under personal graphic settings ( video )

DICE on the right be like:

[misty briar]

YE

FR

always said that

and fuck the goodies u get

it aint worth shit

when i know ppl in reallife telling me they predorderd i bully them

and bonk them

[frozen loom]

[robust vapor]

[frozen loom]

[robust vapor]

I bought 2042 for almost $25

[misty briar]

got it for free

[frozen loom]

Chump. I bought it for $15.

[robust vapor]

The max I could go

Regional pricing man

[misty briar]

was there a time it was free

[robust vapor]

Lucky Kami

[misty briar]

cuz a friend just had like 20 42 keys

[robust vapor]

Gib keys

[misty briar]

knowing the right ppl aint luck

[robust vapor]

[arctic grove]

No the bullet bloom i.e. randomised spread

[misty briar]

[robust vapor]

Oh get the one that reduces horizontal recoil

[stone cradle]

this will be COD Fans when they preorder the $120 ultimate edition for MWIII that includes anime catgirl price and femboy soap

[robust vapor]

Randomized spread happens

[misty briar]

femboy soap

[robust vapor]

But with the compensator your bullet spread with be tighter

[misty briar]

[robust vapor]

Yielding better accuracy

[misty briar]

i yield ducks

[robust vapor]

Yus

[vestal flicker]

is this a joke

[robust vapor]

I got friends but they don't play FPS game

[vestal flicker]

this shit must be scripted no way 💀

[robust vapor]

[robust vapor]

Nah I'm not rich enough to hire actors

[vestal flicker]

damm, everyone does really suck

[stone cradle]

nah very common

[misty briar]

poor by money, rich by heart

[arctic grove]

Compensator 👌 gotcha

[vestal flicker]

it must be a bot, its fucking impossible for ppl to be that blind

[stone cradle]

some recons forget about the outside world when they're scoping.

[arctic grove]

Idk why you can't have the barrel length options + a compensator or suppressor etc (like real life) but hey ho 🤷‍♂️

[stone cradle]

I've met so many personally

[robust vapor]

blind + deaf

[misty briar]

ducks are actually one of the worst rap*st animals out there

btw

[stone cradle]

when I used to main angel, I called in a loadout crate to kill them

[vestal flicker]

when i had the game i literaly was always running and wasnt blind 💀

(i was fucking level 20 at least, this dudes are over)

[robust vapor]

My magnetic field is 3strong5jets

My S attracts the N

[misty briar]

get in front of them tbagging. they kill u, ur mates kills them and revives u infront of them. then both tbag him

[vestal flicker]

the fact in bf4 you could fly the entire world with a c4

[arctic grove]

Also, guys opinions on the best lmg? Been using the Avancys and M240B so far

[robust vapor]

yus

[vestal flicker]

this game even has a trailer showing that you could also do taht

the reality is this

[vital dew]

anyone know when the solid black camo and gold accents is coming out ? it was shown in season 5 preview event

[vestal flicker]

i never used vehicles anyways

(i dont have skill issues)

[robust vapor]

i only use em if nobody uses em

[stone cradle]

Love that the physics are still wild

[vestal flicker]

i rarely used planes

[robust vapor]

same

[vestal flicker]

i think i only did 2 TIMES

all my other playthroughs was on feet

[robust vapor]

[stone cradle]

Was crazy on launch, anytime you drove a wilcat off a high point it started to barrel roll for no reason

[vestal flicker]

i also for some reason played as angel while i just rushed in solo 💀

[robust vapor]

STRONGER HELO WINS

[vestal flicker]

i probably just wanted drip and a anoying mf that keeps talking

[vestal flicker]

we do a little trolling

[robust vapor]

a little trolling indeed

[misty briar]

[arctic grove]

Thankyou for the meme

Added to the collection

[robust vapor]

definitely don't wanna see me flying with wings

[vestal flicker]

my 400 outdated memes says otherwise(skill issue)

[arctic grove]

Most of my memes are eternal

[vestal flicker]

fr same

[robust vapor]

Welcome to Memefield 2042

Where you leave your troubles and your past, behind

[arctic grove]

Also does no one have an opinion on this lol

[robust vapor]

I t1ed all 2042 MGs

no idea how they are right now

Maining M60

[vestal flicker]

i only used the starter rifle 💀

[robust vapor]

Slowest MG of all time

[vestal flicker]

(snipers suck for a mid skill issuer like me)

[robust vapor]

pretty sure 2042 MGs are still superior compared to past titles MGs

[arctic grove]

People keep suggesting type 88 at long range because apparently it's the most accurate before the RPK which I haven't unlocked yet

[arctic grove]

BF3 LMGs were waaaaaaay better, you'd always out-trade basically anyone other than a sniper half a map away

Bullet spread was minimal

[robust vapor]

You gotta try out every MG tho

I can't speak for you

[arctic grove]

I'm starting to like the M240B best because the ttk on the avancys at longer ranges is too much thanks to bloom

M240B has spread but also hits like a truck

Grinding to lvl 32 to see what that final unlock LMG is like

[remote kiln]

try it with the bipod

[robust vapor]

well good luck in your journey

[arctic grove]

I use bipod 90% of the time anyway, only time I don't is if I'm up close

Then I switch to grip

[robust vapor]

switch to lazer instead

[arctic grove]

Isn't lazer hipfire?

[vestal siren]

si senor

to makes it go pew pew pew

[robust vapor]

yeah

just in case you got yourself in quite a pinch

[arctic grove]

Game that did LMG's the best was Killzone Shadowfall

LMGs felt/sounded ch0nk af in that game

[robust vapor]

Meanwhile LMGS in BF1 makes worming look op

[arctic grove]

Battlefield 1 LMGs were a mixed bag

[robust vapor]

the telescopic 1917

[arctic grove]

Some felt ok, others were like... 20 round magazine and slow fire rate, really

Chauchat 🤮

[robust vapor]

lmao

[arctic grove]

Was possible to get kills with it but only whilst camping in a very advantageous situation

[robust vapor]

chauchat is op in BFV tho

not in BF1 for sure

xd

Lewis Gun has amplified fire rate in BFV unlike its slow BF1 counterpart

[arctic grove]

To rephrase what just got automodded lol, BFV is filled with people using xx4 aim assist mod

Bought this game because I was sick of rampant cheating on BFV

[robust vapor]

I'm safe from BFV then

[stone cradle]

not a problem on console

[robust vapor]

I quit BFV already tho

Not cause of cheaters

cause I got all guns to gold

[arctic grove]

Also BFV on PC has an extreme stuttering problem

[stone cradle]

bfv on console still kicking. But BF1 is dead mostly unless you want to play at 2am in the morning sometimes depending on where you live.

[robust vapor]

lol BFV is quite cpu intensive

[arctic grove]

I have a 13700K, tried all the fixes people suggested but it still stuttered every few seconds

[arctic grove]

Bfv isn’t dead yet a week ago I hopped on but there was no one online

[robust vapor]

huh that's weird

[slow tulip]

Bf5 is very good

[robust vapor]

what resolution were you playing on

4k?

[arctic grove]

People say it's something to do with shaders etc

Yeah but I was also getting around 150 average fps at 4K all settings maxed

[robust vapor]

13.7k is one of the best intel CPUS

compared to my 12.7KF

[arctic grove]

12700KF still really good

[stone cradle]

strange. I got near full lobbies many times a few weeks ago

[robust vapor]

did you set a limit to your fps?

[arctic grove]

Nope because I have gsync

[robust vapor]

[arctic grove]

120fps gsync tv

Everyone complained about BFV stutter on PC though so it's clear it's a game side issue

[robust vapor]

hmm

let me boot up the game and try it out

[arctic grove]

Even in cutscenes btw

[robust vapor]

once again

[arctic grove]

CoD warzone can eat over 20GB of VRAM so I think it's the game's optimisation at 4K with settings maxed not really being taken into consideration at the time of development

Seeing as no hardware in 2018 could run it like that

[robust vapor]

well considering i'm playing BFV at 1080P 144Hz I won't run into your issue so I can't vouch for sure

[arctic grove]

Was using warzone as an example of bad optimisation btw

[robust vapor]

12.7KF, ASUS 3070 LHR, 32GB 3600MHz DDR4, FireCuda 1TB

[arctic grove]

2042 has literally zero stutter on the other hand

[robust vapor]

surprisingly yeah no stutter for me

[arctic grove]

And thats with full 128 player lobbies and insane amounts of stuff going on at once

Not a single noticeable frame drop or stutter in full rush games

My record for Irish is 980 projectiles destroyed in one game so that might be why lol

I'm eating all the grenades

[robust vapor]

yeah i'm experiencing nanosecond stutters

[vague rivet]

q-q-q-quack?

[robust vapor]

[lilac linden]

Dok!

[summer ember]

Damn ur PC must be super good then and that CPU is super expensive. Do you play at 4K?

[arctic grove]

Yeah, play games for the immersion rather than the gameplay

[summer ember]

Wow nice man. I hope to get a gaming setup like that after I finish college. Cuz there’s no way I can buy that during college

[robust vapor]

d0k

[lilac linden]

What’s good bud

[robust vapor]

bored af

waiting for season 6 now

done with season 5

[arctic grove]

My biggest advice for gaming setups, don't slack on the speakers. Makes a world of difference to hear games with a full range of detailed sound rather than just a soundbar or regular desktop speakers.

Amplifies immersion tenfold when you fire a gun and it actually sounds chungus af

[robust vapor]

he's right

I could verify it

I was the speaker

[arctic grove]

Good entry level set of speakers + interface and cables is £500, costs less than the GPU and always gets overlooked

[hot hazel]

ppl just use headphones

headset whatever

[arctic grove]

I'm talking about people who go for immersion based setups

2042's sound design is very good and through all the criticism, never saw that getting praised as an aside even once

Game was crap at launch but its great now, shame the reputation damage is already done

[lilac linden]

Same

[amber ingot]

Its a very basic concept of first impressions last , unfortunately only way to learn it is the hard way

I reckon we are at the peak of the player base now

They would have to pull off some magic shit to bring more people

[hot hazel]

time for someone to bring up roblox gun game

[arctic grove]

No Man's Sky overcame it but tbf that game had faaaaar more hype surrounding it than 2042 so people stuck with seeing how the game progressed

[amber ingot]

To be quite honest only reason im playing 2042 now is that there is nothing new coming out that peaked my interest , and i have a sneaky suspicions im not the only one

[arctic grove]

Same with Cyberpunk to a lesser degree, Edgerunners' release saw the game sales reach higher sales than launch despite the unparalleled hype for that game

[amber ingot]

Roblox phantom forces probably has more daily players 🤣

[tacit sphinx]

who plays game audio out of speakers on pc lol

[hot hazel]

obv

[arctic grove]

People who want to maximise immersion

People who don't have neighbours

Or if they have bigger houses

[tacit sphinx]

some half decent headphones are pretty much always going to give you better awareness because you're actually getting all the directional sounds the game wants you to

[hot hazel]

doesnt rrly matter for a game like battlefield

[summer ember]

Ya speakers are very good

[hot hazel]

too much sound from everywhere

and theirs 64+ so ur not even 1v1ing

[arctic grove]

Not true at all, speakers and headphones are both just stereo output so unless you're talking about surround headphones with multiple drivers in the earpiece that's just pure placebo

[summer ember]

@arctic grove so do you have a surround sound system? Like 5.1, 7.1, etc?

[hot hazel]

headset useless for this game

[tacit sphinx]

i play on console with just a pretty crappy old headset and my awareness is generally better than a good like 66% of players because a lot of people will just sit across the room from a tv using the built in speakers

[hot hazel]

well console is a dif case

but pc is right in front of face

and speakers aint that far

[arctic grove]

That's because TV speakers are inside the screen, their positioning is extremely sub optimal so the stereo field is completely squashed

Wholly incomparable to positioned, calibrated stereo speakers

[mossy badge]

2042 hype was insane too lad

[arctic grove]

Compared to Cyberpunk and NMS it was another tier below though

[tacit sphinx]

i mean power to you if that's your preference, but for most people a headset is always just going to be a more accessible option on both price and ease of use

i do think it's kind of dumb to be like "audio doesn't matter in battlefield because there's a lot of things happening" lol

[arctic grove]

I wouldn't disagree with that at all, but we were talking about building a setup for immersion and not the general playerbase

[mossy badge]

Emmhmmm

[hot hazel]

just a preferance to me, i never use headset in anygame cause it hurts head after long use

[arctic grove]

anyone know if you use the blizzard app for overwatch 2 on steam?

[hot hazel]

and my speakers r fine for me

[solid imp]

Audio matters a lot, anyone who says it doesn't maybe hasn't had a good headset or proper 5/7.1 stereo setup 🙂

[hot hazel]

yes u will have to

literally any game needs its own launcher now

its stupid

[solid imp]

Directionality with footsteps, vehicle engine noises, helicopters flying nearby,... Your ears get a huge amount of information that you can combine with a quick check of the minimap and your surroundings to elevate gameplay

[arctic grove]

Audio engineers working thousands of hours using setups with speakers to create the sound design for a video game > only way to experience the fruits of their work with any degree of fidelity is to use proper 5" driver or larger speakers

[tacit sphinx]

honestly i just use a shitty offbrand headset i got for like 25 quid off amazon 6 years ago and the difference is noticeable lol, again on console so this is compared to a majority of people just using tv speakers

[arctic grove]

You're 100% right comparing headset to tv speakers don't get me wrong, but proper speakers is a different world

[robust vapor]

I'm using this

Instead of my razer headphones

[tacit sphinx]

bfv i could pretty consistently be holding a door and know exactly when someone was going to come round it because i could just hear where they were

[robust vapor]

surprisingly more viable and way better quality

[acoustic island]

I’ve been using these philips shp 9500 headphones and they are amazing for any game

[robust vapor]

good for hearing footsteps in game

and a ROG Cetra earpiece

with integrated mic

[tacit sphinx]

i should really get a new headset tbf, i end up with blue dandruff from the disintegrating padding on this one lol

[solid imp]

It definitely is best with something sized like studio monitors or larger, but even with something like 2" in a headset as long as they level the mid/low ranges properly vis-a-vis directionality, it's a great compromise solution

[tacit sphinx]

looking at possibly getting a ps5 soon so if i do then that's when i'll make a change most likely

[solid imp]

And you don't lose too much

[arctic grove]

I use a pair of Adam A7X with a Genelec 7040A sub, can guarantee that setup would convert any headphone user

[solid imp]

Yeah but kids have to sleep in my house, too 😄

Headset /shrug

[shell belfry]

I swear on my kids lives I’ve just played a game 1942 where AI had better score than us human mortals 🤣🤣

[vestal flicker]

i can give you my code, if it still works

(if your talking about razer)

[hot hazel]

just get logitech, cheap like 40$ and good

unless u want high end

[solid imp]

That's the other thing, most PC builders have spent enough on their GPU that audio is almost always going to take back seat if budget is a consideration

[arctic grove]

That's what I'm saying, people are conflating this convo with bashing people for not using speakers in a situation that's impractical. We were just talking about if you wanna maximise immersion and are in a situation that permits it, you wanna get decent speakers.

[solid imp]

For sure immersion I agree with your setup

[arctic grove]

If someone is living in an apartment with neighbours I'm not gonna be like "get speakers and a sub or don't talk to me scrub"

[solid imp]

😄

[robust vapor]

concert speakers

full blast

wake your neighbors with the BF national anthem

[solid imp]

like 500W+ powered speakers ? Nice.

"Aw dang, I lost the banana cable again... where did it go..."

[arctic grove]

If you wanna maximise immersion in a place where you can't use speakers, high impedance reference grade open back headphones powered through a decent HPA like an SPL Phonitor or Neve RNHP is your best bet

[robust vapor]

quality amplifiers

now you guys understand why stuffs are expensive

[solid imp]

Ohhh I used to have a pair of high impedence Beyer DT770s... I still miss those 😦

The low end was unstoppable

[robust vapor]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IAfc5Rdwd-8

don't blame me if you play this at high volume

[arctic grove]

I have a pair of ATH R70X, found Beyers were too prominent in the upper mids / lower highs

[solid imp]

The Pro ones had good low end imo

[arctic grove]

For my tastes at least

[solid imp]

agreed the lower impedence sets had issues

[solid imp]

those look real good

[arctic grove]

The build quality for the locking jacks is meh though sadly so I've had to repair them

[solid imp]

worth it... but this has probably strayed a bit far from the original "audio in BF2042" topic to keep it here lol... I know I'm part of the problem 😄

[arctic grove]

Well tbf it's based on how to maximise your experience in BF2042 given the audio design is baller 😅 that remote control missile thing the woman uses sounds terrifying with the right audio setup

The screech as it comes towards you

[solid imp]

bombs from the stealth

[robust vapor]

reminding you of the Katyusha missile trucks

but yeah audio devices do change things up a bit

with a twist

possibly affecting performance on things you'll perceive

[willow sky]

lowkey miss the boat intro

[arctic grove]

Also tbf it is kinda pay to win in another sense

I swear I get more kills in the hellcat when I'm blasting master of puppets on Spotify lololololol

Probably works if you play danger zone whilst flying a jet too

[summer ember]

Oh wow cool thanks man. Ya I’d love to have that code

[elder sparrow]

Im not following the news or anything, but do they have any plans on adding more attachments to Portal weapons? Most of them feel lackluster.

[arctic grove]

ofc…

[mental delta]

A game of 1942 ? You mean BF2042 ?

[vestal flicker]

alr

no idea if you have qr code scan, check your dms

[pulsar girder]

Anyone down to run any games

[drowsy shuttle]

not exactly true. if you buy MW2 on steam, you don't need the blizzard app.

its the best decision Activision had with MW2.

[mental delta]

What ?

[calm bison]

Hey does anyone have it where at the EOR screen when it shows your ribbons and xp to next rank where your XP shown is considered double xp?

Like 2XP weekend is over

And I’ve hit level 100

So why is my XP considered 2XP even though it isn’t?

Maybe it was because of the tier skips?

[slow tulip]

Can we get a map like paracel storm

[warped bramble]

I hate the grainy water effect

Since like bf1 or 5

It looks bad

[magic thistle]

bf2042 kicks me out of a match when i am still connected to an internet and now can't find any matches in breakthrough

[novel compass]

dang

[amber ingot]

@robust vapor u had a fix for this ?

[lilac linden]

Try to restart the game

[magic thistle]

will do

[lilac linden]

Yes. You get double XP throughout the battlepass. To see what you have it should be displayed in the tiny corner next to your player card in the top right corner.

[magic thistle]

nope

threw me into a new lobby

i swear this game needs a server browser

conquest it is

then

[lilac linden]

Yeah I get that all the time. Have a good lobby then something happens and it’s gone.

You can at least find matches right?

[magic thistle]

yea

[lilac linden]

That’s good then.

[magic thistle]

ok it happened again in conquest

[lilac linden]

Restart your internet?

Could be internet or maybe server issues.

[magic thistle]

likely server

[calm bison]

I don’t have double xp active

[magic thistle]

i am running yt music and its working

and now ofc it throws me into new lobby

[lilac linden]

Most likely server problems then.

[lilac linden]

Oh really?

[calm bison]

Let me put it like this - there is no Double XP active. I have hit level 100. There is nothing that can give me double xp. But when the round ends, I have an apparent double xp score

I checked JROB’s stream and he has the same issue

[lilac linden]

Could be bugged then

[calm bison]

Probably

[magic thistle]

yea i am finding more bugs these days
like it shows the tripod option even when i don't have it on the gun
and sometimes shows the toggle scope option while in sight when the sight doesn't have other options

well atleast the lobby filled up faster than it did in breakthrough

[lilac linden]

The toggle sight option has been around for a while.

[amber ingot]

How tf do i cut my parachute

I cant figure it out for the life of me

[wide shore]

Pc or console

[leaden zenith]

Does anyone have issues connecting to the online servers today NVM it finally connected

[simple bison]

On PC its usally your crouch button

[amber ingot]

Xbox

Is it hold crouch ?

[wide shore]

Just press crouch

[amber ingot]

Gotcha thanks

[wide shore]

Of course

[summer ember]

I have two main complaints: 1) the vehicle respawn timer doesn’t fully work and 2) we need boats

[amber ingot]

That timer is your timeout from vehicle not vehicle respawn i believe

[magic thistle]

we will have boats when we have a naval map

[summer ember]

Oh so is Dice working on that?

[remote kiln]

no, theyre not

its an if

[summer ember]

Oh ok this makes perfect sense

I wish we had a vehicle respawn timer as well though

But they probably don’t want people spam clicking and hogging vehicles

Which is what I do sometimes ngl

[amber ingot]

Belive thats exactly the goal

[summer ember]

Is there a premium edition or something I can use to pay for all vehicle and weapon unlocks like how Battlefield 4 had a premium edition? Cuz the Wildcat is so much harder to use without the 35mm cannons

And I need 300 kills which takes forever

[wide shore]

I believe there is shortcut kits

[summer ember]

Ah ok thanks I’ll look into those. Cuz especially once school starts again, I won’t have much time to grind vehicle unlocks

[wide shore]

Yeah, I think it has its own section in the store

[amber ingot]

My game feels off after that hidden update

Might just be me being ass tho

[magic thistle]

and the same thing happened again

tf is going on today

[hybrid totem]

If they didn't want people doing that, the personal vehicle timer would be longer than the respawn time.

[summer ember]

Ya I don’t really know why they do that

My best guess

[amber ingot]

Sure feels like peeps figured out to connect mnks undetected on cross-play turned off servers

[vague rivet]

These lis missiles are a freaking joke....

[summer ember]

I get killed by them a lot in a chopper

Yesterday I dodged like five in a row before being killed

[vague rivet]

That is in it self impressive, when you consider that they dont even work half the time.

[summer ember]

Ya

[leaden zenith]

When is Control coming back to the playlist I really enjoyed that mode just needs more maps added to it's playlist then when the event was going on and that would be kickass

[mental delta]

Another reason why specialists are shit, you would have never gotten this type of gadgets if specialists weren't a thing

[gloomy wyvern]

Unfortunately I'm forced to do cross play. Because if I don't I will sit in a 2-hour searching period

I'm in the US if anyone is curious

[gloomy wyvern]

They already do that

[gloomy wyvern]

I would say we would have got it had specialists never been introduced. Considering we have a piece of shit stealth chopper. And the community just loves those despite my explicit 101 guide on how to nuke any vehicle

[amber ingot]

Whats wrong with the stealthy

Ima big fan of it

[gloomy wyvern]

Exactly what I just said

Despite my explicit 101 guide, the community loves it

[tawny carbon]

One day….

[gloomy wyvern]

I wouldn't complain so much if they would just use a little bit of logic with the stealth chopper and the soflam

[remote kiln]

theyve said its coming back soon

[amber ingot]

Im not quite grasping what you’re actually complaining about

The stealth part ?

Where it can’t be locked on ?

[leaden zenith]

Really When did they say that

[remote kiln]

everywhere they give updates, on twitter lol

[leaden zenith]

I don't use twitter do you happen to have a link of when they said that

[remote kiln]

im not digging up one tweet through 50

[gloomy wyvern]

Let me bring up the soflam lamp description:

Target designator. Paints the target with a laser, allowing allies to lock-on to the same shared target with a variety of smart weapons.

---

This means: in order for the stealth chopper to prevent a light beam from painting it, it must be invisible to the human eye.

Laser Jammers do work, but they do not work in the sense of preventing light from shining upon it. They simply repeat the signal multiple different times. All they have to do is allow logic and have a chance of missiles making contact due to the different beams of light being sent back to the soflam

Then my complaining and name will change

[amber ingot]

I see your point , and i raise it to why apply real life logic to a fictional game

[gloomy wyvern]

I see your point, and I raise it to why allow an overpowered craft exist. A prime example is chair Force players racking up 40+ kills and falsely believing they're good because they're they're abusing dices failure to regulate

[tawny carbon]

That’s Battlefield. We don’t talk about it, we just play it

[amber ingot]

does the AA just not exist ?

We had this conversation

[gloomy wyvern]

The AA cannot lock on when it's in stealth....

Which is what it's in 24 fucking 7

And we're talking about a game that does not promote teamwork

In fact it promotes solo play

[amber ingot]

Why do you need yo lock on when you got 30mms or whatever it is that shreds helis

Where does it promote solo play

Teams dominate with the revival and spot after kill feature

[tawny carbon]

You have to hit with with AA guns/Lis rocket/ M5 Recoilless to knock it out of stealth

[magic thistle]

stealth heli's are a huge pain

[amber ingot]

they are when an imbecile takes the wild cat and uses it as a LAV instead of an Aa

[tawny carbon]

Meh, every aircraft is trash now.

[magic thistle]

ok but why?

[tawny carbon]

AA superiority

[gloomy wyvern]

30 mm AA cannons on the wildcat do not affect it in the manner everyone expresses here.
35 mm AA cannons on the wildcat do not affect it in the manner everyone expresses here
20 mm flank cannons on the cav brawler do not have the range necessary to counter the stealth chopper sitting at 500 m

[amber ingot]

Wildcat absolutely shreds with 30mms

[tawny carbon]

They are weak and fuck and AA can easily knock it out of stealth and AA is extremely op against helis

[amber ingot]

Im not too sure what youre talking about mister soflam , i find 30mms to be extremely effective

[gloomy wyvern]

It doesn't knock it out of stealth mode. I've been in the stealth chopper and shot by all of weapon systems stated here which did not remove me from stealth mode. @amber ingot

[amber ingot]

Well they do

When you get a critical hit

[gloomy wyvern]

Well I just said they don't

[amber ingot]

But they do 😂

[gloomy wyvern]

But they don't

[amber ingot]

Omg

2v1

[tawny carbon]

It happens to me in stealth heli with stealth enabled all the time.

[gloomy wyvern]

Yet it doesn't happen to me crazy, almost as if I just said they don't affect the stealth chopper in the manner everyone expresses here

[magic thistle]

my aa rockets don't do shit against them

[gloomy wyvern]

Exactly

[amber ingot]

When youre critically hit youre unable to go stealth , im bout to post a clip where if you look at my weapon bar im unable to go stealth

[tawny carbon]

I get knocked out of stealth and instantly get shut down even if I pop flares

[amber ingot]

Go look in #streams-and-videos

[magic thistle]

i launch once
they let out the flares
and dissappears
and i shoot second time
damage done
third time
they have flares back
and now i am out of ammo

[amber ingot]

and pay attention to my weapon bar

[gloomy wyvern]

Oh I'm aware there's moments where you can't go into stealth, but I'm saying when I sprayed you for 5 seconds with an AA Cannon and you're still in stealth. They don't affect like everyone expresses here

[vague rivet]

"I'M the expert so shut up and pay attention." 😄 Love that one...

[amber ingot]

Im not sure youll get anyone to agree with you mr soflam

[gloomy wyvern]

I believe the lis rocket needs a serious buff. Considering we have to deal with lazy wildcats hiding behind an uncap

[gloomy wyvern]

Until they experience the same shit I experience you're right

[vague rivet]

I just need them to work...

[amber ingot]

will be quite hard since it looks like its only the issue in your side

[still vault]

One day: "lis rockets needs nerf" next day: "lis rockets needs buff"

[gloomy wyvern]

Whoever said they need nerfed with bullshitting

They've never been able to compete with aircraft

[amber ingot]

how tf would you buff a player controlled rocket

Riddle me that

[next onyx]

As someone who's been on the recieving end many times in a tank they're fucked.

[gloomy wyvern]

Apply more explosive power

[amber ingot]

Aren’t they already a one hit kill

[next onyx]

Improve the turning, etc.

[still vault]

more manoeuvrability

[gloomy wyvern]

Exactly I can smack you the entire round. You'll never die by them

[gloomy wyvern]

That too @amber ingot

[next onyx]

They're incredibly annoying, But when there's two or even three you literally can't do anything.

You shouldn't solo a tank with a rocket.

[amber ingot]

so what you wanna do is make a weapon very op

[next onyx]

But when you have two to three rockets at a time pointed towards you you really are forced to sit back.

[gloomy wyvern]

Are you talking about players or rockets cuz in my experience I can shoot two of them consecutively and they'll still be sitting there unaffected.

[next onyx]

Cover is irrelevant.

[gloomy wyvern]

Overpower weapon for an overpowered craft equals balanced

[next onyx]

Lis's, Two to three Lis's firing rockets right at you.

[gloomy wyvern]

Or we can simply strip it from the game like it should be

[amber ingot]

Not sure thats how that works

[gloomy wyvern]

But let's change tracks real quick and look at a different vehicle

[amber ingot]

Oh uh

[gloomy wyvern]

I'd like to introduce the cav brawler

Take a notice at one of those tags in its description

Explosive resistant, now riddle me how a MAV can take more explosives than the craft explicitly tagged explosive resistant

[tawny carbon]

I mean, Lis rocket is more designed against aircrafts more…

[amber ingot]

Probably cause mav is big as shit so it has wayy more armour

[gloomy wyvern]

I'm not talking about lis rockets. I'm talking grenades, blindfire rockets, mines

[tawny carbon]

I saw a conversation about lis rocket, sheesh 🙄

[gloomy wyvern]

Yet it lacks the tag explosive resistant so how is it possible it is more explosive resistant than the one explicitly tagged as such...

[next onyx]

Brawler takes less damage from C4.

[amber ingot]

Different complaint now

[next onyx]

That's its primary gimmick.

[amber ingot]

And it still tanks a few explosives

Its not a 1 hit kill

Like a buggy

So it is explo resistant

[tawny carbon]

It takes out Huron in 1 hit or 2…

[gloomy wyvern]

It is a one hit kill by a mine, or RPG 7v2

[next onyx]

I'm talking about C4 and brawler how it's makde to take in explosives, Not the lis rocket in that instance.

[gloomy wyvern]

Hysterically due to the shape of its belly, it's supposed to deflect the majority of a mine

[next onyx]

It's a weird mislead.

[gloomy wyvern]

Almost as if it's tagged explosive resistant

[amber ingot]

Lordy lord by the time youre done with the complaints the whole vehicle system will need a revamp

[tawny carbon]

C5 is a explosive and destroys everything with 3 c5s if not 4….

[next onyx]

Brawler takes 25 from a direct c4.

[gloomy wyvern]

If they would use some logic into the craft that they introduce, there wouldn't be such a need

[next onyx]

It's the only vehicle that takes more than 3.

[amber ingot]

It includes EA what did you expect

[shell ermine]

MBTs should take 4 too imo

[tawny carbon]

So basically brawler have more HP not explo resistant

[next onyx]

No it doesn't. It just takes less damage from c4.

Blah broken sentence.

[tawny carbon]

So maybe it’s how the brawler is designed with its arm

[gloomy wyvern]

It's literally in its description:

... Innovative composite armor provides superior protection from mines, C5 explosives & grenades

[gloomy wyvern]

So I'm not complaining about RPGs now. Im still complaining how mines and other types of explosives nuke it.

[tawny carbon]

Mmm 🤔 maybe, balancing… idk 🤷‍♂️

[next onyx]

Kek.

Mines are absolute nukes.

How they're bunched together it doesn't make a difference.

[tawny carbon]

Facts

[next onyx]

MPAT still ruins it like it's a RAM.

[gloomy wyvern]

@amber ingot all I'm asking is they actually follow through with the description they give for the weapon systems and craft they introduce to their game.

[next onyx]

If you take one stray mine it'd definitely help in reducing the overall damage.

[calm bison]

Just gonna post this link for someone with permissions to repost pls https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/465355475400261632/716989128004075610/video0.mov

[gloomy wyvern]

It's not that much to ask. And if we're being honest any game developer that doesn't follow through with their own descriptions will receive complaints as such. Not just by me

[amber ingot]

Wtf they still work on BF3?

Why

[next onyx]

I'm fortunate to have moments where I get a brawler with c4.

And with 40MM AP.

[tawny carbon]

Tbh, under of any vehicle is the pure weak spot. Mines play a big factor in that… sooo

[remote kiln]

server maintenance =/= working on, just necessary updates to keep things running

[gloomy wyvern]

The way the vehicle is designed logically, deflects the majority of the explosive power by a mine

[amber ingot]

Such an old game , why not BF4

[next onyx]

probably a tune up.

[amber ingot]

I remember when i had a few servers on BF4, fucking impossible to get any help when server went down

[calm bison]

Part of me wishes DICE has like the equivalent of a late to the party patch for BFV where it fixes a shit ton of issues and adds anti cheat

But they don’t

[tawny carbon]

It can take more hit points. Don’t make it “top tier omg it should be insane”, type of thing.

[calm bison]

Then why don’t we just shoot the underside of vehicles all the time?

Are we stupid?

[tawny carbon]

That’s what mines is for unless the vehicle get flipped or tilted.

Unless your literally under it then sure 👍 go ahead

[calm bison]

You guys know that dance from Avatar: TLA where it ends with them pointing at each other?

I had the AA equivalent of that yesterday

Flying on Discarded

Wildcat to my right

Dude with a stinger on my left

Both fired at the exact same time

Killed me

[tawny carbon]

AA is OP

Aircraft is weak asf

[calm bison]

They need to buff rocket pods vs tanks

[tawny carbon]

Facts

[shell ermine]

Dancing Dragon

[tawny carbon]

If aircraft can be weak asf. Atleast buff our anti land vehicle dmg.

[calm bison]

Yes that

[calm bison]

I think DICE wants to avoid making another OP airplane situation like with BFV

But they went too hard on it

[tawny carbon]

Naw, dice don’t want the Y1 meta back.

[gloomy wyvern]

After further investigation of the cav brawler, I have determined the entire description as a troll.

As a specialized close assault vehicle, the brawler has a selection of armaments and equipment that makes it ideal for close quarters combat against soft targets. Innovative composite armor provides superior protection from mines, C5 explosions and grenades.
So it's designed for close quarters combat yet is equipped with anti-vehicle weapon systems....

Let me put it this way if you want to protect your wildcat put a brawler next side to it. No aircraft will be able to take out the wildcat as long as the brawler is sitting there shooting at it

[tawny carbon]

Balance in a game. Everything can’t be OP set for AA,wildcat,BSV

[shell ermine]

I like the CAV. Though I tend to get hate in the chat when I use it because I equip it with 20mm AA and not incendiary grenades

[gloomy wyvern]

I don't put grenades on it either

[gloomy wyvern]

You forgot to mention the stealth chopper in that....

[shell ermine]

One thing I like to do with it is ram into the sides of Wildcats and MBTs which knocks them over temporarily, if I've got a competent squadmate in with me they'll hop out and C5 the enemy vehicle

[tawny carbon]

Stealth heli got nerfed to the ground. It’s not op, it’s just good.

[gloomy wyvern]

It didn't get nerfed as I just explained probably a month ago how to take out any vehicle. If they don't want it to be op remove the EMP and it'll be good it won't be overpowered

To counter a bully stealth chopper all you need is a brawler and a wildcat sitting together

Mother fucker will fall outta the sky faster than the earth falling to the Sun

[main marsh]

fuck

why in the fuck does my game load later than everybody else's even year ago it was all good now it slowed down

[gloomy wyvern]

Planed trash. Your shit gets slowed down either by the manufacturer attempting to motivate you to buy newer devices. Or the developer of applications becoming more greedy expecting us to maintain the demand of technology

[main marsh]

except the ssd i have bf on is a new ssd that i bought a couple months ago

[gloomy wyvern]

Technology expires the second you buy it

[tawny carbon]

Boi, big nerf back in 1.2 and 2.0 Update. What do you mean it didn’t get nerfed?

[main marsh]

no i think its more the fact battlefield loading is slower than before

or they screwed up optimization for my specs or some shit

[next onyx]

St choppers are inherentingly bullshit.

[gloomy wyvern]

"only needing one hit from lis rocket"

When one bullet above it mentions it's agility.

Completely ignoring the fact that all-out craft can outmaneuver that rocket type

Almost as if it's still fucking overpowered

[tawny carbon]

Stealth heli isn’t op at all.

[next onyx]

If they were balanced with the stealth passive from bf3 and readjusted sure but as they stand they're horribly balanced

[vague rivet]

They can fix that by adding a button for detonating the missile in flight.... You don't have to hit... Just air burst near it...

[next onyx]

Seriously they're not hard to use. Bomb drops and all that shit.

I'm just glad their 30 mils aren't as fucking overpowered as they were.

[karmic egret]

Goodbye Alex good luck on TTK

[gloomy wyvern]

How about we add another dynamic to lis rocket to maintain the agility of a rocket that is capable of adjusting on the fly. Add throttle control.

Now we've made where the rocket can maintain the agility of every single aircraft.

Let me put it this way I do barrel rolls in the Russian transport. I do backflips in the Russian transport. If a tank in the sky in terms of maneuverability and not ability to take hits is capable of these maneuvers, then the fucking rocket were talking about needs a serious buff and agility

[calm bison]

I think Lis needs a minor nerf against tank damage

[gloomy wyvern]

Let's also add to the fact all you have to do in one of those vehicles is simply be in a constant backup. And go on a slight circle. You'll watch that rocket just follow you and not do anything even if they do boost

[calm bison]

As it stands Lis is too potent for AT gameplay

[next onyx]

It should just be a SRAW not a TV.

You can't use it over cover so effectively.

As it kills the entire point of it.

The tows on the lavs in portal make me yearn for actual skill.

[gloomy wyvern]

In fact if you hit the stealth chopper with that rocket, the pilot of such craft had to not been paying attention or know how to maneuver it appropriately. Thus meaning you have a 0.0000000000000004% chance of hitting it. Because the mass public doesn't use the craft because they don't know how to use it

[shell ermine]

It was fine until they nerfed the fliegerfaust

[next onyx]

Fliegerfaust got even better.

[calm bison]

Hey DICE can we replace the SPH Explosives with drills? It destroys building walls and such but doesn’t do explosive damage

[next onyx]

Just aim KEK.

[calm bison]

I’m still salty DICE never nerfed AA range in BFV as well as the 109 G6

[tawny carbon]

So it’s a personal skill issue then for trying to destroy a good pilot

[shell ermine]

Toss some smoke down before you use the SPH

[next onyx]

G6 was a massive problem.

Pacific dogfighting though nothing will heat it.

Beat.

[gloomy wyvern]

No it's a failure to self regulate their own creation by listing it as the very counter for such craft capable of outmaneuvering any RPG launched at it

[calm bison]

What’s funny is that DICE rebalanced the 109s to meet the same standards that the Mustangs would be at

[next onyx]

Yet the mustangs were inferior.

[calm bison]

Only for them to go overboard and make the G6 way too strong

[next onyx]

Like. Huh.

[shell ermine]

Any future BF game should have something like the fliegerfaust for the anti-vehicle class

[gloomy wyvern]

I'm very capable of outmaneuvering such a rocket in fact I could go find some random preschooler hand them the controller show them 30 seconds on how to outmaneuver such rocket and they would be able to replicate it

[calm bison]

The mustangs are still competitive

Like extremely

I’m sure if you put them against say a Zero they would perform fine

[next onyx]

No high alt and no quick repair really fucked the mustangs.

European planes handled much different versus pacific.

[calm bison]

The P51D had a quick repair but DICE made the stupid ass decision to have the supercharger replace it

[shell ermine]

Am I wrong or did the Pacific maps have a much larger air dome for combat than the rest of the maps? IE you could go further and higher before going out of bounds or stalling?

[calm bison]

The P51K has a high Alt spec that didn’t work at release wtf

[next onyx]

Yeah and in the ideal world you'd be running super charger.

Cause super charge is an absolutely must.

[calm bison]

I run 6x browning HMGs, quick repair, and 2x rockets

[next onyx]

I think it only gets 4 hmgs.

As per standard with European fighters.

[calm bison]

Although the supercharger is nice it’s not going to save me from the G6 that also has a super charger

[gloomy wyvern]

Explain how it's a skill issue of the TV rocket. When I just said the only time you're going to hit it is when the pilot is not paying attention.

Implying such a rocket is incapable of matching the agility of any aircraft let alone the stealth chopper

[next onyx]

Super charger was a must no matter what.

Those two rockets were good though.

When you learn them they're the best in the game.

[calm bison]

M8s were apparently OP against the Puma but I never used them since they looked goofy

They were too low off the aircraft’s body

Looked like water pontoons

[next onyx]

2 M8's could destroy a puma in a single go.

[calm bison]

Now for the P-70

I run the M8s

And cause mass destruction

[next onyx]

4 could destroy any tank ina single run.

[tawny carbon]

You have to time a non lock on rockets (major dmg to aircraft). AA lock on rockets does lil dmg to aircraft. Wildcat does amazing amount of dmg to a heli. Rao can emp helis even in stealth mode. Lis can 1-2 shot most helis especially lil bird and Huron (if you can hit a lis rocket) skill issue if you can’t (I have no problem with lis rockets against aircrafts in 640 or 128p servers)

[next onyx]

Those rockets were fucking stupid.

[calm bison]

Honestly I just love stupid weaponry

Which is probably why I like the 4000lb bomb so much

It’s so terribly excessive

[next onyx]

When you learn aircraft it's not hard to avoid lis rockets.

Wanna see a dogfighting clip, drey.

[calm bison]

Sure

Will r8

[next onyx]

I love pacific fighters cause you could run 6x HMGs.

[calm bison]

My most used aircraft in BFV as of July 2023

Is the P51D

With like 3.5K kills

[next onyx]

Mine was the zero a6m2 at 10k.

[calm bison]

Bruh

[gloomy wyvern]

Hey how about I take you up on your offer saying you can hit aircraft with lis rocket. You won't hit me I'll continue to almaneuver you the entire game. Especially considering your limited to two rockets & I'm in a stealth chopper all I got to do is line up with a bomb run and Tata you're done

[next onyx]

I got it to 10k and never touched it again.

[calm bison]

I still remember the 5.2 Wake Island BT farms

[next onyx]

Yeah it was horrible.

[gloomy wyvern]

I outmaneuver them on a everyday basi

[calm bison]

For you guys maybe

[next onyx]

Oh nah I mean it was horrible as infantry.

[calm bison]

For someone who enjoys flying in all Battlefield games it was heaven

[next onyx]

I did the farming too.

[calm bison]

The infantry hugged tanks like blankets

[gloomy wyvern]

I don't even fly with a unlocked camera, my camera is in a fixed position and I out maneuver this shit.

[tawny carbon]

1v1 won’t solve anything js. We all should know this from the og cod days

[gritty tapir]

I love it when your teammates use the Tor when playing as attackers on breakthrough

[gloomy wyvern]

No it proves your inability to hit me with a lis rocket like you said. And you would be proving my point in it's inability to keep up with the agility of any aircraft

[next onyx]

@calm bison

[tawny carbon]

That doesn’t prove your point at all.

[gloomy wyvern]

Did you not just say you had no problem hitting aircraft with lis rockets? And did I not just say you would not hit me.

How would this not prove my point in the rockets inability to maintain the same level of agility by any aircraft

[next onyx]

It really isn't difficult to avoid lis rockets.

[tawny carbon]

It also isn’t hard to control a lis rocket either

[calm bison]

Here is my defacto priority list when it comes to flying;

1. Kill enemy jets or airplanes. Remove all valid opposition to you.
2. Kill enemy air vehicles. Choppers or transports remove them to secure the airspace.
3. AA vehicles. Ensure air security for yourself and teammates
4. Enemy tanks. This is just basic shit.
   Sprinkle in a few infantry kills

[calm bison]

Very lovely

Those HMGs on the A6M5 were always so potent

[gloomy wyvern]

I know but some people apparently think you can hit aircraft on a daily basis with this rocket

[next onyx]

I'm so proud of you dad.

[radiant talon]

[calm bison]

I mean once you get the hang of the rocket it’s decently easy to land kills

[next onyx]

[calm bison]

I have a two bird with one stone clip from BFV

[next onyx]

The last fighter was super awkward for me.

As you can see.
