battlefield-2042

[thorn yarrow]

No it didn't. Just hurt their rep a little. But they make millions a year just adding skins to CS:GO so they're basically on autopilot at this point

[slow tulip]

What do you think of call of duty ww2?

[white geyser]

DICE better add other contents for season 6 that they still haven't add in the game. Such as server browser for AOW, switch team option for the multiplayer, and more

[ivory canopy]

Story-wise they could really make it work? Maybe?

[mossy badge]

Worst part what

[radiant prism]

I’m talking artistically, visually. Looks dumb.

[mossy badge]

[copper fulcrum]

Didn't Bethesda say they spent like 10 years working on Starfield?

[mossy badge]

Man it looks amazing visually

[radiant prism]

My problem with the MW franchise is that it wants to be taken more seriously than it actually is

[mossy badge]

Better than every current fps on the market

[ebon pilot]

dude nobody is playing CoD for the story. it's a selling point for exactly 2 weeks after launch and then everyone just plays multiplayer for the rest of the year until the next game comes out

[thorn yarrow]

Can't believe they remastered OG MW2 and only released it with the campaign. All we wanted was multiplayer.

[radiant prism]

All this intense gritty shit for the most dumb shit ever.

[thorn yarrow]

Cmon Activision

[copper fulcrum]

And then they made like 4 packs that costs $14 each to bring back sounds from that game into the multiplayer

[mossy badge]

Bro what you want in a war game?

[radiant prism]

Come on, even you have to admit you’re a fanboy for that franchise. You appear every time someone even mentions it and don’t shut up about it…nothing wrong with that but like have some self awareness ig?

[thorn yarrow]

I'm gonna commit die

[slow tulip]

They are just thinking about the legacy features, not sure about the implementations

[patent pivot]

like what Rockstar did with GTA 4 PC

[mossy badge]

I said it as a fact bro

[copper fulcrum]

Oh god

[thorn yarrow]

Precisely

[radiant prism]

A game that takes itself as seriously as it deserves to be. I don’t love the idea of a game showing another war crime for shock value when that game will inevitably have snoop dogg in it.

[copper fulcrum]

and to also treat their characters like super-heroes

[mossy badge]

Bro snoop dogg is not in campaign

[patent pivot]

it's almost like they force old players to move on to GTA online

absolutely

NOT

[thorn yarrow]

Snoop dogg dlc

[patent pivot]

GTA 4 and the episodes multiplayer are far better than online shit fest

[radiant prism]

And? They still try to push the same story into the MP

Captain price will still be right there next to snoop, I don’t care what you think, because I think that’s dumb

[mossy badge]

And what bro mp and campaign is different they don't add snoop in campaign

[copper fulcrum]

My biggest pet peeve is that not a single person really dies in the campaign

[mossy badge]

That will be awesome ngl

[radiant prism]

Can’t sell skins of a dead character

[copper fulcrum]

Yes you can

[radiant prism]

That’s why they brought Alex back

[thorn yarrow]

"And this is Commander Dogg. His specialty? Blunt weapons."

[radiant prism]

Alex literally just went “I got better” after his big heroic sacrifice

Dumbest shit ever

Don’t get me started on how MW depicts actual real world events

[copper fulcrum]

Ghosts was a prime example of this, having characters from other games show up as selectable characters for full outfits like Makarov, Soap, etc.

and there was no cinematic or video needed

[radiant prism]

Like terrorism and war crimes

[copper fulcrum]

they were just 'there'

[radiant prism]

There’s no impact

It doesn’t change the story

[mossy badge]

I mean bro these campaign are trillion times better than battlefield campaign

[radiant prism]

It’s there for shock value

[copper fulcrum]

Oh yeah a nuke in the city and nothing really happens after that

[thorn yarrow]

LIterally what story?

[copper fulcrum]

It didn't go off and it just got brushed off

[radiant prism]

I quite frankly don’t care. I agree that they’re more fun, but that doesn’t mean I don’t think it’s dumb. At least BF campaigns are tonally consistent

Can anyone tell me what No Russian stood for anymore?

[copper fulcrum]

Graves comes back because it was not him in the tank yet he somehow is scarred from something?

[radiant prism]

What is the story trying to say with that?

[mossy badge]

Bro totally consistent every cod has that consistency

[ivory canopy]

No Russian was definitely shock value

[radiant prism]

MW doesn’t. It’s dripping with this veneer of being realistic and gritty and graphic while being just a wannabe Michael Bay flick

You cannot convince me that MW has a good story

[mossy badge]

What was battlefield 4 then

And 3

[copper fulcrum]

The characters not dying really doesn't make me feel for the campaign

[radiant prism]

Acceptable

It didn’t try to feel realistic, it tried to feel like BF

CoD doesn’t

[mossy badge]

Trilogy has the best fps campaign ever created

[radiant prism]

And it annoys me

[ivory canopy]

BF3's campaign had such a glaring plothole

but they did have a couple really good missions

[copper fulcrum]

Gaz, Ghost, Alex, that one woman I keep forgetting the name of should've died by now

Although they could've had Soap die and Ghost stay alive

[radiant prism]

Ghosts redesign btw

Looks fucking stupid

I hate it

[thorn yarrow]

Soap didn't juju on that beat

[radiant prism]

That stupid fucking Halloween mask

[radiant prism]

FOAP

[ivory canopy]

I found BF4's campaign somewhat better, and pretty neat that they let you choose between three different endings.

[mossy badge]

Ohhh I love the new design more than the original which I also love

[thorn yarrow]

Soap honestly got the Thanos chin

[radiant prism]

To the surprise of no one

[thorn yarrow]

I mean ghost

[copper fulcrum]

Ghost's redesign is way overdone

[radiant prism]

It’s his only fucking character trait

[copper fulcrum]

He'd be laughed at the moment an actual soldier looks at him

[mossy badge]

I think it's perfect

[radiant prism]

We know

You didn’t even have to say it chief

[mossy badge]

[radiant prism]

That’s not me agreeing with you

Don’t Keanu point me

[mossy badge]

You don't have to

[copper fulcrum]

Farrah should've died somewhere down the line

That's her name right?

[thorn yarrow]

Ghost had to return though. Or else how would they have dragged the OG CoD fanboys back in?

[mossy badge]

I say what I think and general opinion

[radiant prism]

God what a fucking character assassination they did to Farah

[copper fulcrum]

At least in Halo there are characters that actually die

[radiant prism]

Supposed to be a freedom fighter fighting for her home no matter what that meant, turned into just another action movie operator and skin model

[thorn yarrow]

RIP Sgt. Johnson

[radiant prism]

Farah’s character was at least interesting in MW19

[copper fulcrum]

Rip all of Noble

Arbiter also dies

[radiant prism]

MW22 she’s just…the exact same as all of the others

[thorn yarrow]

He will be replaced

[mossy badge]

Farah is still an interesting character

[thorn yarrow]

No matter

[radiant prism]

No she isn’t

[dull path]

wait why are we talking bout our rival?

[radiant prism]

She straight up isn’t

[copper fulcrum]

Yeah that's the neat thing about "Arbiter" he gets replaced

[mossy badge]

She is

[dull path]

is call of duty even our rival?

[radiant prism]

Because it’s dumb and I’m angry

[copper fulcrum]

The only thing interesting about Farrah now is that she's a woman

She's currently just the token female character in the group

[dull path]

no screw it
xdefiant is cod's rival now

[mossy badge]

It's better that's why

[radiant prism]

CoD doesn’t even have characters anymore. It has skin models

Like

Tell me one character trait of any CoD character

[copper fulcrum]

All of TF141 now feels like one person

[radiant prism]

One actual character trait

[copper fulcrum]

Oh yeah another big gripe of MW22 is that there are no playable marines, it's just TF141

[radiant prism]

One difference between anyone besides surface level descriptors

[mossy badge]

Cool

[onyx mica]

cool

[dull path]

graves, his trait is to be an asshole in mw2

[mossy badge]

I like graves

[radiant prism]

The bad guy is an asshole. Groundbreaking stuff

[mossy badge]

He wasn't the bad guy from the beginning

[copper fulcrum]

Graves is a Pixar Twist Villain and you can't convince me otherwise

[onyx mica]

i like halo anyway

[radiant prism]

BRO HE IS

[dull path]

yeah, you can't have a conflict without the asshole am i right?

[radiant prism]

someone get Schaffrillas on the phone pronto

[dull path]

what about sheperd from OG mw2 or salazar from bo2

[thorn yarrow]

Cool

[arctic grove]

Nahhh just a cookie cutter fps but at least mw3 is launching with content.

[copper fulcrum]

Oh you can tell Shephard was going to turn on you from the beginning

[arctic grove]

Unlike 2042 with its 70 dollar sorry A content at launch.

[radiant prism]

The whole shepherd and shadow company things relies on you knowing about them from the original MW2

[dull path]

yeah...like finally the ACR, the MCX spear, OG mw2 maps and finally the rafficas

[radiant prism]

Like it’s just

“Oh they’re bad now, remember MW2 2009?”

Same thing with Makarov, inevitably

[dull path]

bottom line
never trust someone from shadow company

[copper fulcrum]

Graves is that one guy from Frozen

[mossy badge]

It has a great campaign I miss it in 2042

[fresh lintel]

One character trait from CoD characters?

The masked ones are h-

[radiant prism]

At least the original series built makarov up over multiple games

[copper fulcrum]

Yeah this guy

[radiant prism]

What do you think the ramifications are going to be of Ghost Company blowing up an entire US military base full of PMCs in MW3?

[fresh lintel]

Another Russian invasion

[onyx mica]

i like dmr the most

[radiant prism]

Because in the original series it had them go rogue after that whole shindig and actually have to deal with that shit, guarantee you it’ll be business as usual

It’s just so fucking empty

[radiant prism]

God if they fucking do that with what’s going on rn…

I’ll break shit

[fresh lintel]

Theyre gonna forgo the airport and go straight to the White House getting burnt by non Canadians

[copper fulcrum]

That part in the OG MW2 where you have to fight against Shadow Company and Spetznaz at the same time was great

[dull path]

DMRs are always PEW PEW PEW

[onyx mica]

and man the blade

[fresh lintel]

The Spetz/Shadow fight was fun. We need more of that.

[copper fulcrum]

If only

Oh wait even then I won't play it

[arctic grove]

Even if mw3 is just mw2 DLC at least they are pumping out content

[fresh lintel]

Eh.

[radiant prism]

Eh.

[copper fulcrum]

It has to be good content

[onyx mica]

i.i

[mossy badge]

Most importantly maps has cover

[radiant prism]

That’s a lukewarm take at best

[fresh lintel]

They should have just kept it as DLC.

[robust vapor]

Battlefield moment

[radiant prism]

Activision be greedy cartoon villains challenge (impossible)

[fresh lintel]

Why do I have to spend another $80 on a game thatll just go into the MCC

Lmao right?

[arctic grove]

[radiant prism]

Say what you will about 2042. At least they tried something new

[mossy badge]

What new?

🤔

[arctic grove]

Something new that was totally unnecessary

[fresh lintel]

And despite people hating it, it was actually quite enjoyable.

[radiant prism]

Doesn’t matter if you like it or not, original is original

[fresh lintel]

Like sure classes ARE battlefield but.. It still felt like Battlefield to me

[mossy badge]

They made flat maps for 128 players

Groundbreaking

[robust vapor]

[fresh lintel]

Too be fair those flatmaps worked better as 32vs32

I dont get 128 player matches :^)

[robust vapor]

Flattened players when

[fresh lintel]

They already are

[copper fulcrum]

get in the car

[arctic grove]

DICE & EA really thought the community would gobble the BR live service trend with ApexSeige6 like overwatch and diablo 4 fans are.

[robust vapor]

So I can play medic and ress

Then watch people get flattened again

[mossy badge]

I don't know about battlefield that much but I think 5-6 maps are remake in battlefield they are not original if you saying game is very original

[robust vapor]

Ez points

[arctic grove]

They did something Original? They literally were chasing trends.

[fresh lintel]

I mean we did. If not for the horrid launch, alot of players would have been Whales.

[arctic grove]

Add furry/anime skins and we got a hit.

[robust vapor]

Yes friendly fire running over

[fresh lintel]

But literally add those skins 👁️👁️

[radiant prism]

Woah, the 6 maps specifically designed to be throwback maps in a separate mode from the main MP…WERENT ORIGINAL???? When people have been asking for remasters for years???? Truly scummy stuff

I swear y’all take stuff so out of context

[fresh lintel]

LET ME USE THAT

[radiant prism]

I was supposed to shower an hour ago, I’m out of here

[fresh lintel]

SO I CAN PISS OFF THE MILSIMMERS

[copper fulcrum]

Also aren't like most of MW2's maps remakes of older CoD maps and isn't it confirmed that most of MW3's maps are going to be OG MW2 maps?

[mossy badge]

You said the game is original where almost half of it is just remake bro

Maps I mean

[arctic grove]

Yes. At least Cod pumps out classic map. It be nice if DICE pumped out more classic maps for Portal.

[mossy badge]

Omg at least one

1

[copper fulcrum]

I'm really tired of playing 'classic' maps

[mossy badge]

Take 3 years but give me 1 portal map please

Don't forget to add cover

No you can rework it

[arctic grove]

I recommend play battlefield heroes 2. Has original maps.

[radiant prism]

Please show me you don’t play the game harder

Go enjoy your MW3

[mossy badge]

Omg bro game feels sooooooooooooo trash I can't

[copper fulcrum]

I can't wait to watch every single CoD Tuber complain about it

[radiant prism]

Lmao

[arctic grove]

Or just do what ROCKSTAR does, just port the maps over with those crappy last gen graphics.

[radiant prism]

Point made

I rest my case

[mossy badge]

Ohhhh I will love it bro already loving the trailer that they showed

[arctic grove]

Rdr1 was done dirty

[fresh lintel]

I dont care if MW3 is getting the MW2 09 maps. If the movement is Zoomer cancer I want nothing to do with it.

[copper fulcrum]

Dude it's a $50 port, I fucking hate it

[radiant prism]

How’s Price’s jockstrap smell?

[arctic grove]

GREED IS RUINING GAMES

[mossy badge]

You have played the older campaign right you must know the smell

[arctic grove]

English Tea

[mossy badge]

[fresh lintel]

Smells like cigars

[radiant prism]

You wanna talk about games that are half old content? Literally MW3

[copper fulcrum]

He probably also looks up CoD R34, I wouldn't be surprised if he does

[radiant prism]

Just MW2 DLC for $70

But tell me how great that trailer was I beg of you

Why are you even in this discord

[copper fulcrum]

the trailer of walking forward and following NPCs

[radiant prism]

There’s a whole CoD discord

[fresh lintel]

Might as well spend that money on an actual new game lmao

[slow tulip]

Yes, EA's greed ruined them

[copper fulcrum]

Like Starfield

[onyx mica]

what

[fresh lintel]

Literally.

[copper fulcrum]

We're talking about Rockstar

[radiant prism]

https://tenor.com/view/face-palm-gif-20569409

[onyx mica]

is that real i want

[mossy badge]

It is sooooooooooooo amazing that it got 30+ million views in just 3 days sitting at 36 million views

[fresh lintel]

Or Blashpemy 2. Or fucking D2. Or any other game besides a Map Pack with a gear reset.

[copper fulcrum]

That comment was geared towards Rockstar and RDR1 lol

[arctic grove]

EA owns Rockstar???

[slow tulip]

No, but ea ruined themselves

[hybrid totem]

EA.
Own everything

[copper fulcrum]

Please don't jump into a conversation without knowing what we're fucking talking about lmao

EA owns every company I guess idfk

[slow tulip]

It's in your wallet

[arctic grove]

EA games: Challenge Everything.

[copper fulcrum]

I miss that

[radiant prism]

Infinite warfare got a lot of views right off the bat, im sure that was a great ga-OH GOOD HEAVENS

[copper fulcrum]

https://youtu.be/o_VF8Qb_YBA

[radiant prism]

Vanguard got a lot of views off the ba-OH FUCK

[copper fulcrum]

Let the gray hairs grow on my back as I listen to the old intros

[arctic grove]

Cod AW > Ghost.

[radiant prism]

Ok?

[arctic grove]

Ok

[radiant prism]

https://tenor.com/view/thumbs-up-bt7274-titanfall-gif-14796563

[copper fulcrum]

https://youtu.be/s2NtBncL3Fs here's another one, fuck it

[slow tulip]

Ea buys a studio for a particular game then strips it's originality and forces monetization when it doesn't do well then shutdown the studio, there is a huge list of ea's victims it goes as far as Westwood studios

[mossy badge]

Best wiiw fps ever made

[radiant prism]

Shower time for sweaty gamer

[arctic grove]

Cod ww2 was actually better than vanguard

[copper fulcrum]

Yeah that sounds like every publisher

[slow tulip]

No

[copper fulcrum]

ever

[slow tulip]

Ea in particular

[copper fulcrum]

Name a publisher that doesn't do this

[arctic grove]

Go back to the SEGAAAAAAAA Intro.

[slow tulip]

CDPR, VALVE

Activision kinda does it

[copper fulcrum]

CDPR is still relatively new, give it time. Valve technically does it, technically doesn't.

[arctic grove]

BG3 Company

[copper fulcrum]

Square Enix does it a fuckton

Remember Forespoken?

[arctic grove]

Ubisoft just Copy/Paste

[copper fulcrum]

I swear Ubisoft just copies off of each other every game

[slow tulip]

They might make ghost of Tsushima with AC red

[arctic grove]

Seems like a good idea.

[copper fulcrum]

Every time Ubisoft does something 'new', the next 10 games uses that exact thing to run it into the ground

[slow tulip]

They made legend of Zelda botw with fenix immortal, cod with xdefient and sea of thieves with skull and bones

[copper fulcrum]

I wouldn't compare Skull and Bones with Sea of Thieves tbh

[arctic grove]

Botw is just Skyrim for nintendo fanboys

[copper fulcrum]

Skull and Bones is more of a strategy sorta thing while Sea of Thieves is open world exploration first and foremost

[arctic grove]

Skull and Bones is a dead on arrival game.

[copper fulcrum]

Yeah I don't care about pirate games

[arctic grove]

Only good pirate game is AC Black Flag

[copper fulcrum]

Never played it because it was AC

I enjoyed Brotherhood

and I'll call it there

[mossy badge]

Brotherhood the best one

[fresh lintel]

Wrong, Tom Clancys Pirates and Sea of Thieves exists 😤

Actually lemme double check the first one I mentioned because it could very well NOT be Tom Clamvlams

[copper fulcrum]

You mean Sid Meier's Pirates?

btw, always avoid video games that have exclamation points in their names

[fresh lintel]

Yes

[onyx mica]

pirate!

my fave

[fresh lintel]

I actually played it when I was a kid and I liked it ;v;

[onyx mica]

i will always be a pirate in my heart

wherever i go

[copper fulcrum]

I enjoy the spelling of "Tom Clamvlams" tho

[fresh lintel]

It was a mix of my phones keyboard fucking up and me trying to type clamclam

[radiant prism]

This chat never fails to make me not want to play video games anymore

[onyx mica]

haha

[radiant prism]

I could spend all day wanting to play, look at this chat for 10 minutes and just feel genuinely angry

[fresh lintel]

Quake II remaster fucks 👁️👁️

[copper fulcrum]

When is Star-Fox going to make an open world game?

[onyx mica]

i like quake

[copper fulcrum]

I'll make you quake

[radiant prism]

Ayo???

[onyx mica]

nooo

[fresh lintel]

Turok 3 Remaster is coming November

AYOOOO

[copper fulcrum]

pls stop with the remasters unless they're like age old games

[fresh lintel]

insert strogg machine gunner noise here

[onyx mica]

delta forceeee

[radiant prism]

Am I in the right channel? I thought I was in the SFW section?

[fresh lintel]

Honestly i'm here for the remasters

[onyx mica]

the ancient ones

and contra

[arctic grove]

Actually. that one is a classic

[copper fulcrum]

Not gonna lie though, it'd be pretty cool to get Enemy Territory Quake Wars again

[fresh lintel]

Turok 3 has never been off the N64. So it being remastered means its available to everyone

[onyx mica]

i like wing commander and dune

[fresh lintel]

ETQW was so fun

Me and my roomie used to spam "I NEED A TECHNICIAN"

[copper fulcrum]

Basically, Battlefield 2 but with Quake stuff, you can place down shit like turrets, call down vehicles, etc. Did not do well because of the launch window

[arctic grove]

I need C&Q and Star Craft on the N64

[fresh lintel]

It played like an Arena shooter but it was Battlefield.

[frozen loom]

So, you want Tribes 1 then?

[arctic grove]

Most Underrated battlefield game.

[fresh lintel]

Honestly I wanna see ARMORINES: PROJECT S.W.A.R.M. get a remaster

[copper fulcrum]

Made by Splash Damage and id, a great dream team

[onyx mica]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qFXFkJbVl-I i am soldier

[copper fulcrum]

The dreaded launch window cucks over too many games

See Titanfall 2

[onyx mica]

this is the perfect day to die

[fresh lintel]

Also Starcraft Ghost when?

[onyx mica]

in life there is no surrender!

[fresh lintel]

Like you know how I felt when Ghost got cancelled? As a literal die hard Starcraft fan? A mere child lmao

[onyx mica]

it is win or die

oooooooooooooooooo

forward

[frozen loom]

I wonder how many BF players buy joysticks and steering wheels just to be good at piloting vehicles.

[onyx mica]

me

[frozen loom]

You have both?

[onyx mica]

but i am going to use it with other games

such as elite dangerous etc etc

i like those genre of games

[frozen loom]

Did you use a joystick to pilot your mecha in the new Armored Core?

[onyx mica]

bought them, most of the games in similar genre

do not have time yet

im so sad

[frozen loom]

[ebon pilot]

hello please take a look at this triple kill

[onyx mica]

i am looking

and no eq

[ebon pilot]

no eq

[onyx mica]

haha

and eq i like racing games too so

i don't have steering wheel yet

YET

bought the games tho

bike cars anything

[frozen loom]

Seems like much. You have to put that steering wheel somewhere when not in use.

[gritty tapir]

using the railgun and getting constant headshots, can cheaters stop being so obvious lmao

[onyx mica]

i did not buy it yet the wheels since i want to fly more instead

we are indeed getting invaded by hackers

maybe my imagination tho

[gritty tapir]

That gasum dude on rushxl is super suspect

[onyx mica]

i watched it almost 10 times and all i think about is how delicious it will sound in game, i have been there before

awesome kills

[snow salmon]

so finished the battlepass, looking at my season badges I'm 1107/1150 and I only seem to make like 1-2 points per round. Is this right or can I be earning more somehow?

[ebon pilot]

weekly missions and that's it

[snow salmon]

I did all the weekly stuff, this is what I dont understand.

[ebon pilot]

then yep you basically just have to grind the rest of the way

[robust vapor]

[snow salmon]

ugh

[ebon pilot]

the battlepass will get you T3, you have to get T2 and T1 by yourself by playing more

[snow salmon]

ok thanks for the info

I'm a filthy casual, guess I wont be getting that badge before it ends

[fresh lintel]

Surprised anyone even plays Rush anymore

[robust vapor]

[neon knoll]

ay you think u andre tate? @misty briar

[fresh lintel]

Fighting an actual clan while you're the only person flanking but still going toe to toe with them is fun

Its a shame the falks arent healing

[frozen loom]

[next onyx]

I've had fun fighting clans.

When it's an actual challenge.

Not just one sided.

[arctic grove]

why you don’t make your own bf just like clownfield

[frozen loom]

Call it Raise to Duty.

[fresh lintel]

I mean I dont know the KUI guys but theyre easily better than the average last genner.

Which isnt a high bar to reach because any bit of teamwork > Avg last genner

But still, they were organized and can aim. Which easily destroyed my unorganized zerg of a team lmao

The EOD bot is crap..... I killed a tank and i "only" got 64 point of damage.......

[fresh lintel]

When your team of bots cant kill one guy who keeps rushing up to your location when you're trying to just level up the VCAR

Sweaty ass falk players make me

Same one couldnt even kill a shotgunner while said shotgunner needed to mag dump me

I fucking need a Series X this is just purgatory

[vestal siren]

all the squads be hella dead

[fresh lintel]

Yeah all i'm getting is bots and people who try way too hard and still get dunked

And a XIMMER with a 12m because MNK on Xbox is cool and balanced

[fickle wharf]

??

[fresh lintel]

??

[vestal siren]

lovely

[fresh lintel]

24-0 on a loss, enemy team kept back capping. And a magical wizard mackay appeared out of thin air behind my tank.

Maybe got like 5 kills on the tank before that happened 🥴

[fickle wharf]

Wdym a ximmer on xbox since cross play is a thing or we talking last gen???

[fresh lintel]

Last cen

Last Gens dont get Crossplay with PC. So anyone with MNK access is essentially cheating.

[fickle wharf]

lmao

[slow tulip]

Is bf2042 cod and bf combined?

[frail sparrow]

Nope, that is warzone

[slow tulip]

Bf2042 isn't battle royle

[agile wind]

Tried to be battle royal💀

[pine roost]

No it’s dok and field combined

[slow tulip]

It failed to be a battlefield too

[agile wind]

Too fr

[mossy badge]

How bro

Game name is battlefield and you play conquest how is it not battlefield

[pine roost]

What people want out of battlefield varies a lot

It’s complicated

[mossy badge]

🤔

[slow tulip]

Lacks the legacy features that made battlefield battlefield

[mossy badge]

Like

?

[slow tulip]

It's a huge list still to this day

Yes it has battlefield elements in it but i wouldn't say bf2042 is a good battlefield

[mossy badge]

Game has large scale battle with vehicles this is what battlefield isn't it that also has destruction

[slow tulip]

Destruction is pretty much non existent

[mossy badge]

How bro

[slow tulip]

Extremely rare

[mossy badge]

Huhh

Wait let me find a video

[pine roost]

That is true, but it’s hardly a dealbreaker

[mossy badge]

I think poetic made a video that shows destruction

[slow tulip]

In terms of destruction bf2042 doesn't even come close to the older titles

[mossy badge]

https://youtu.be/iVjmkZj11iA?feature=shared

This video is very lengthy

You can watch it poetic shown a lot in it

[tacit sphinx]

most structures are pretty destructible you just can’t completely level them by design

and most buildings in most titles retain some framework rather than being wiped off the map

but this doesn’t matter to dell conagher because that is outside the prebaked parameters of the complaint algorithm

[mossy badge]

Yeah this is exactly the case in 2042
And bro if you level down every building I think it will ruin gameplay

[pine roost]

I think dell is mostly on about that bringing the whole thing down type of thing, I personally don’t want most buildings to collapse and the quality of destruction is good in this, it’s just that a lot of the map is open space which happens to not allow for much destruction to exist

[mossy badge]

Yeah the maps are set in beautiful natural landscape where rarely any building is present maybe that's also one reason why people say no destruction

[pine roost]

That is the main reason

[mossy badge]

But dude is wrong tho he said non existent

And that's not the case

[mossy badge]

https://youtube.com/shorts/jDpUVJq7Hpg?feature=shared

It's funny

But cool

[pine roost]

Oh god yeah the doom49 stuff goes hard

In fact back at launch the portal maps got more praise for their destruction capabilities than the base maps, since they adhered to the classic map design with more built up areas

[tacit sphinx]

even then it’s basically just a regurgitated argument to complain about 2042 without taking into account that like other games had plenty of structured that were not fully destructible or in some cases not meaningfully destructible at all

[pine roost]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[tacit sphinx]

but im not convinced mr conagher says anything in good faith anyway as i’ve seen him ask people to effectively construct a complaint for him another server and then copy the outcome to here

[pine roost]

[quaint vector]

Rpg games are no no for me

[mossy badge]

You are fps lad

I got it

[fiery solar]

Sucks the portal maps are the only maps with destruction that isn’t just holes in walls. There’s still some homes in discarded and that season 4 map that can be fully destroyed

[mossy badge]

🫡

[fiery solar]

What are rpgs. When I hear rpg I think of sword slashing medieval 2004 games

[mossy badge]

Role playing games lad

Here are some examples

1. Dark Souls
2. Dragon Quest
3. Witcher III

Role-playing games (RPGs) are a type of interactive game where players assume the roles of fictional characters within a narrative or fictional world. Players make decisions and control their characters' actions, often guided by a set of rules, to navigate through a storyline or series of events.

[fiery solar]

Are there only sword slashing drsgon slaying rpg games. Could I call any open world game an rpg

[mossy badge]

• chatgpt

Cyberpunk is also rpg bro

And

Mass Effect

[mossy badge]

I don't think so 🤔

Like battle Royale 🤔

[fiery solar]

I’d say any open world game that is supposed to be immersive is an rpg

[mossy badge]

You need storyline

[fiery solar]

Yes

[mossy badge]

I think chat gpt gave a good definition here

[quaint vector]

Yup

[pine roost]

Most rpg’s nowadays are known for having some kind of levelling system, skills and upgrades of some kind. Think skyrim, Witcher, cyberpunk etc

[mossy badge]

Holy moly attack helis are getting a substantial change

All helis are getting a reduction in roll speeds which I think is fair

[brittle forge]

They’re adding a lore codex now? Why even bother man

[pine roost]

But if they haven’t also fixed the flight assist off not being off then I might just quit

This is the best time to do it and having a high sens is the only real way to counter it

But they’ve reverted the gunners back to a fast fire rate, improved their visibility, overall reduced the damage it can take

Rocket launcher nerfs…

More air vehicles on maps…

[pine roost]

Cause people have asked for it

Can’t complain about them adding something people ask for

[brittle forge]

But the lore of this game like isn’t good

I mean sure have at it I guess

Lore in this game is amazing. Also this game ties with other battlefield games as well

[azure basalt]

new patch notes actually good

dang

gonna try the attack heli now

[stark crane]

2042 got those ps2 graphics sometimes on the ps4

[pine roost]

Flak cannons are back, they are actual AA now

[stark crane]

sometimes its normal, sometimes i feel like im on ps2.

[proper pagoda]

whats about the rumours with naval combat?

is there something true about that

[sly valve]

[tawny carbon]

I highly doubt it, let’s see how season 6 and after comes out to be.

[sly valve]

what do you think this is battle field 4 where the game was actually good?

where yu get given bunch maps that are good

[tawny carbon]

BF4 and 2042, both games went through hell. Overall 2042 is not a bad game. Also it’s not the best game.

[sly valve]

just give us better maps lmao

it isnt hard

[tawny carbon]

They don’t have a big dev team, it’s hard to do with less people.

[sly valve]

take the old maps >.>

from the old games>

port them over >

is that such a hard task ?

[tawny carbon]

Also they care about the quality of the game and the playerbase

[sly valve]

recreating one on another xd?

like cod make fuking billions from it

[tawny carbon]

Cod is cod, BF is not Cod

[pine roost]

The reduced mouse liftoff compensation on jets is a welcome change though

[sullen vessel]

I still need help getting the vehicle kills trophy/achievement. Anyone down to stat pad this weekend?

[sly valve]

it plays more like cod than yu think lmao

[sullen vessel]

I want that platinum bad for the time spent suffering at launch lol

[tawny carbon]

No it does not unless you only play tdm

[sly valve]

bruh conquest is just large tdm with extra steps dumb ass lmao

[tawny carbon]

Huh?

[sly valve]

[tawny carbon]

Repeat your last?

[pine roost]

Well to be honest it’s movement has elements inspired from one of the recent cod’s, but I’d say it vastly improves on it

[azure basalt]

100%

[sly valve]

EXTRA STEPS

[azure basalt]

2042 is not a bad game its good but not the best battlefield like 4

[tawny carbon]

Define extra steps?

[sullen vessel]

That’s just not true lol it’s an even mix of both lol you can either kill or hold points and never touch an enemy

[sly valve]

capture 1 zone

move on oo such a game changer ..

[tawny carbon]

Wow 😮

[sly valve]

literally changes nothing.

on how the game plays

[tawny carbon]

Like multiple of other game franchises and series have zone captures … that’s crazy. Cod only does that and bf took that idea?

[sullen vessel]

What the hell are you doing in this server 😭 this is madness

[robust vapor]

[tawny carbon]

17% nerf

[robust vapor]

?

[tawny carbon]

They said it in the patch notes, to make it more skillful

[robust vapor]

Reduced the speed at which the RPG & Recoilless projectile travels by 17%

Dev Comment: We saw that players were using the rocket launchers primarily for anti infantry use and sniping vehicles with ease at range, thus we want to make this a bit more of a skillshot to perform at a long distance.

[tawny carbon]

Huh 🤔 @sly valve

[pine roost]

Well it was specifically due to its strength against infantry

[sly valve]

huh?

[tawny carbon]

Read the comment

Huh?

[chilly jacinth]

Getting sniped by an M5 was epic

[sly valve]

what game lmao?

[pine roost]

Ooo improvements to the nightbird crosshair? That could be interesting

[sly valve]

yur the one who commented it?

[robust vapor]

Increased the weapon sway on the Recoilless M5 while aiming down sights.

Dev Comment: This should mostly impact targeting of infantry where we found players were using the Recoilless M5 to snipe infantry at distance as opposed to having it be used against its intended use-case, vehicles and structures.

[sly valve]

thats agood

balance,

[chilly jacinth]

Now we gotta watch out for the people that use it as a shotgun

[sly valve]

lmao

[robust vapor]

yeah absolutely

[sly valve]

increase damage taken on the user end

at danger close

easy fix

[robust vapor]

they were right

I'm a menace

[sly valve]

oh that lol

[robust vapor]

casually sniping you from 300m away

[wide shore]

Tbf some of that is because of how easy it is to judge distance using that scope

[tawny carbon]

Games: Destiny, Halo, Battlefield, COD, many more fps games have zone capture or a flag to capture to earn points to win the game.

[drowsy rose]

Currently the gameplay armor/health difference between Attack Helicopters and their lighter variants are not noticeably felt and they equally struggle against anti-air weaponry. To address this we are lowering the damage that Attack Helicopters take from 30mm Cannons on the Wildcat and Flak weapon explosions by 25% which will help with better survivability versus their lighter counterparts.

Nerfing AA slightly for... frankly doing it's job is kinda hilarious

[tawny carbon]

Even non fps games have flag or zone captures as well.

[chilly jacinth]

It's a buff to attack heli

Which is poo at best

[drowsy rose]

Honestly I'm amazed they havent added different cannons for the damn heli gunners

[pine roost]

A change to the zero point on rocket pods, I assume that means convergeance?

[robust vapor]

I'm astonished enough that progressing to T1ing M5 doesn't apply to infantry

hovercraft drives better backwards

[lethal sandal]

so we add thermal to gunners seat of the AH but then nerf the gunners dmg?

[pine roost]

[cunning plume]

they should make more maps instead of working on lore that nobody cares about

[patent pivot]

and stop making unique modes limited time

[ebon pilot]

time limiting modes allows for modes to be effectively tested and experienced by the community without the mode possibly dying from lack of use over time

also FOMO is a strong motivator

[unkempt coral]

Those are two very different sets of skills lol

[cunning plume]

none of the limited modes have been exciting

[unkempt coral]

I personally would rather have the map-designers working on the next battlefield game while the lore-writers work on 2042, than the opposite xD

[amber ingot]

There is a whole ass dedicated team for FNB so i wonder what their job is the 4 other days in the week

[ebon pilot]

They probably schedule all community events and communications, analyze feedback, conduct surveys, play tests, etc.

[vestal siren]

FNB - Knives & Crossbows ftmfw!

[junior wren]

i rather they focus on importing old maps than making a new game.

still waiting on the CQB maps from bf3.

[quiet shell]

I don't understand these patchnotes.
Why did they make the engineer worse?

[vestal siren]

youre gonna be waiting for a looooong time, lol

aint happening

Dice already got that bag, we arent getting anything more than they are obligated to give us, if that...

[quiet shell]

If it's to make the rockets less viable against infantry then make using it against vehicles more important to the player by oh, I dunno. Giving us more rockets so we can kill tanks without scrambling for a random ammo box. Unironically a lot of players will not use their rockets on tanks because between the APS, repair kit and damage percentages, you simply cannot kill the vehicle reliably.

Also most people only ever use rockets to deal with snipers because the hit registration is so fucking broken in this game that getting a headshot reliably with a sniper rifle is a joke

[vestal siren]

I think you have skill issues, sniping isnt difficult, there just isnt variation in the rifles

[quiet shell]

also putting a scope glint on basically every viable scope makes counter-sniping impossible unless you go out of your way to get out of the snipers field of view and even then you have to hope to god the snipers not smart enough to position him so you can only shoot him from the front (looking at you Kaleidoscope ledge)

[quiet shell]

it's not a skill issue it's basic facts

This is all just bandaids for wounds by DICE

[fickle wharf]

rip gustav

i enjoyed sniping with it

[chilly jacinth]

Proper sniping ain't hard at all

It's about as easy as using a regular gun

[limber orbit]

"you cannot kill vehicles reliably" what? vehicles are easy af to kill

[vestal siren]

so easy

like I said, skill issues

[limber orbit]

major

[vestal siren]

lol

[tawny carbon]

Vehicles is very easy to destroy. Especially ground vehicles. But air to ground. Is abit more balanced on redux. Rn, very unbalanced.

[stark crane]

fucking hell, 2042 is unplayable on old gen, ps2 characters running around, even BF5 runs better.

[tawny carbon]

Ground to air is very unbalanced rn till balancing next week

I’m hyped to see heli buff after almost 1-2 years later from release. After heli got nerfed on and Wildcat got massively buffed.

[limber orbit]

reducing the speed of the launchers sucks lol now its a little more difficult to snipe choppers

[vestal siren]

just load up a Lisbean and go ham

cope moar

[limber orbit]

luxury problems lol

[tawny carbon]

Ngl, I still think Wildcat needs a AA nerf still.

[vestal siren]

wildcats do be wild

[limber orbit]

well they reduced the damage air vehicles take

from the AA missiles

but tbh i never use the AA ones

[tawny carbon]

Mmm 🤔 I mean they did say it in the patch notes. Nerfed incoming by 25%. Imma try it out next week and see how it goes.

[ebon pilot]

I thought it was only for attack helis

[tawny carbon]

Sadly

I think for other helis to because they said lighter variants as well

[pine roost]

No it’s just the attack helis

[static prairie]

^

[pine roost]

This essentially says they want to give it more survivability so it’s a decent choice rather than being overshadowed by the lighter variants

[charred stag]

That's good because lately I've gotten into using the apache and hokum but it's annoying losing my heli a few seconds in the air because of AA

[gray comet]

Easy to kill, but also forgiving. Initiating system repair can invalidate all of an engi’s hard work putting holes into a vehicle.

[ionic gale]

It will still be overshadowed because it is a 2-man vehicle, while the Nightbird can farm everything solo and better now, too, because Boris "sniped infantry with ease" with 125 m/s launcher. For fuck's sake.

[gray comet]

To be fair the scout heli was far from balanced in 4 as well

Dice seems to have consistent trouble making them fair

[ionic gale]

DICE has consistent troubles counting the people inside vehicles and outside of it

[vestal forge]

[vocal tusk]

The complete removal of flak damage to infantry is a weird one for me

Like what...youre on a flak cannon...infantry runs up to you...what are you supposed to do? Drive away?

😆

Or will it still deal some damage...just none from the flak element?

[merry heart]

I think they're doing that to prevent easy farming from a long distance. I know I do that in BF1 with the AA cannon on objectives with a horse beside me.

[calm bison]

Heh they’re adding a codex for 2042

They’ve taken enough of the “where’s the lore” argument

[dapper river]

Hopefully this means no more weird useless quotes in the loading screen, and actually useful tooltips only

[merry heart]

I kinda hope the codex is like 1’s and has details about the weapons

We already have specialist profiles and whatnot in the game, I need something new

TBF it's also a map issue

BF4 and 3 had maps that are big enough that Helis and planes will outrange AA a lot

Or enough cover to break lock, or unbalanced counter measures known as ECM

[amber ingot]

If there is any nightbird sweaty pilot that wants to adopt me as a copilot and help me finish of this T1 ill be very grateful

Despise that helicopter

Enjoy reduxx BLUE 128 LARGE MAP

I mean the M5 has a splash radius of maybe 0.25m and you ADS strafe at around 2-3 m/s. I do not think anyone can help you if you get "sniped with ease" by that 125 m/s projectile.

And I do not know how fast a Littlebird usually flies, but I would argue that sidestepping such projectile is a little easier at that speed, but what do I know, I am not an artiste working at a AAA studio.

[vague rivet]

Yeah of all the changes, i have to say.... The AT weapon change doesn't make sense to me.....

...but we'll see.

[calm grove]

Rush XL is too sweaty

SPH spam

[limber orbit]

would be nice to know the m/s instead of %

[pine roost]

the last time they upped the velocity they didn't tell us an exacty percentage, so it would be good to know the overall difference from it's initial speed

[ionic gale]

That would mean they give us numbers and DICE does not want to give us numbers, as it could lead to analysis.
But they gave the number in some dev update a couple of months ago, that is where I got that 125 m/s from. From there you can just deduct. Whether it is 125 m/s or 103 m/s does not really matter for regular AT purposes or for anti-infantry. It is just that the M5 is a shit launcher now, so any nerf is ridiculous

[pine roost]

they give us numbers for most things, but I do wish they'd start adding bullet velocities under the stats for weapons and gadgets

[limber orbit]

it would

[pine roost]

one thing I would like some clarification on is this part in the notes about lowering heli sensitivity

it's not explicitely stated to be a change to roll or pitch speeds, and lowering the default sensitivity does nothing because you can just raise the sens, and if it's a nerf to the maximum sensitivity then that's just a nerf to the roll and pitch speeds

feels a bit vague but it's still important to know what's what

[vague rivet]

With all the birds flying around.... Why isn't brid strikes a thing? 😄

[void gorge]

no 2042, why sometimes the game doesn't allow you to call for help when you're down and sends you straight to "respawn"?

[ivory canopy]

That's if you fall off a tall ledge after dying, or get roadkilled.

imho getting headshotted should not allow a revive

but roadkills being instant death is weird to me

[pine roost]

usually happens if you die a few seconds after getting revived again, if you are out of bounds or you get run over and an object is covering your body

just to avoid clipping issues or revive spam

[ivory canopy]

imho why wouldn't they do the system they had in BF2/2142 where you get knocked out but someone can still shoot you to finish you off, preventing a potential revive

Maybe there were too many issues with it? idk

I saw something similar in Portal mode.

[pine roost]

seems like something that could be a bit irritating for the player especially with how it's been handled in the last few games

[limber orbit]

lol the headshot no revive thing is so dumb

[pine roost]

it's ideal to have consistency, and having the headshot be an insta respawn and being able to get killed while down would only make it feel even more inconsistent

[vague rivet]

Headshot with a 120MM tank round..... "Hang on Bill..... Let me find you head first...."

[limber orbit]

its an arcade shooter not a milsim

[pine roost]

would rather just know that if I get downed I can get revived, rather than 'oh he headshot me, guess that's me done then'

[ivory canopy]

I was thinking realism with that thought

[limber orbit]

ew realism

[pine roost]

I just feel like it would be more annoying than useful

[ivory canopy]

Yea maybe

[stone cradle]

why are air getting so many buffs

[pine roost]

it's just the attack heli, because it was so under utilised before

[stone cradle]

I can't find any info about more stationary AA

[arctic grove]

Backwards DICE AT IT AGAIN

[pine roost]

and with the AA being a separate slot I assume they feel like it would be a good move

[stone cradle]

Because I've been in so many matches where there's Lises and they do literally nothing

And let the attack heli and little bird farm us

[pine roost]

tbf most players are like that regardless

it really boils down to whether your wildcat player is competant

[stone cradle]

If we had stationary AA I'd atleast be able to contribute without switching classes
