I mean we can hope that games like Baldur’s Gate 3 and Battlebit at least signal a change in AAA gaming
and not be depressed in general
You mean fun? In my money machine? Never.
a list? Not exactly, I don't play many games, but I can name the three new ones that I've been enjoying lately
armoured core 6 is a big hit that I'm definitely going to cop when I get back
I've seen a lot of talk about AC6
battlebit is already at 2042 level player counts
Ea says, you don't like single player games
Ah, yes. A fad trendy game. Very cool.
Then why do they keep making them
Games like the Jedi series
It Takes Two
I am a big fan of the Jedi games 
Yes but they cancelled titanfall 3
that isn't a singleplayer game
my favorite game at the moment is single player and free to play, to say single player as a market is gone entirely is just false
Shall we say dedicated single player then
Trepang2 is pretty good
in addition to this
EA (outside of their sports games) hasn’t had a half bad track record lately
Yuh
Bf2042 doesn't have a single player, the next bf game gonna have one, i don't expect it to be long
I will
Public appeal and the words of some rando exec at EA are not the same either
I’m going to cross my fingers for the next game since Vince Zampella, David Sirland, Florian, and Marcus Lehto do seem to be avid about making it up to a good standard
Because of vince zampella, I hope he doesn't make a cod clone
So far Respawn has yet to disappoint and since they have a say in BF now
Hopefully it’ll maintain
that got cancelled
Waiting on Jedi 3 
didn't even release
when is the new battlefield
¯_(ツ)_/¯
I’m hoping Cal makes a canon appearance in Star Wars eventually
You mean live action
Baldur's gate 3 is better than any EA's live services
Speak for yourself
Battlefield is not a meat grinder
Metro is a bad map but a fun one as a medic
I play Battlefield because of the fucking vehicle and infantry gameplay
Locker and Metro are the least fun clusterfuck brainfarts anyone could have made
lots of bad opinions in this chat and it all seems to be coming from two people hmmmmm
Honestly Argonne and Underground are the better versions of Locker and Metro
you know a map no one talks about that I think should get more attention? Altai Range
Add wake island or praracel strom
no I'm at work
10 year old game runs endless meat grinders because everyone left playing it has disengaged? Mad.
If you held a gun to my head and asked me whether I would play BF3 64P Metro with nothing but shotguns and grenades or a game of BFV underground with all the sweats of the world
I would choose the latter thank you very much
lets analyze this claim. 6,158 in 2042, 1,368 in BF4 on Steam.
Because underground is a better map than Metro
Bf5 Rotterdam was good
I’m going to say this
If you play Battlefield exclusively for the meat grinder maps
Go play CoD
Does it
You very funny guy
battlefield has far better infantry mechanics than cod
oh so you're saying you're skilless?
nah CoD is so bad right now, I wouldn't recommend it at all
I like me some locker cause I get to engage with the infantry mechanics, but the main modes are just as fun
they had a good thing going with Modern Warfare 2019 and then almost completely fumbled it for 3 games straight
I like locker if it’s like once in the regular playlist
And I can focus on the maps with both infantry and vehicles
Because grand chaos is better than small chaos
meat grinder maps are fun in a superficial way but you don't feel anywhere near as fulfilled when you win one as you do on a good map and after a close match.
That’s a very brave assumption
I always held the belief that these meat grinder maps were fun because heehoo funni Grenade and explosive shotgun spam
also im waiting for your stats
nah it's actually really easy. I'm hot trash up close but even Locker is effortless with pretty much any gun
Battlefield players when the vehicle designed for mass destruction is capable of mass destruction
which does not make it a good map
if anything the fact that the map is rewarding to me being a monkey with an AS VAL counts against it
ur struggling to post ur stats
I just like it for the opportunity to use movement and track targets 
Personally I think maps like Hainan Resort, Passchendaele, Twisted Steel, and Orbital are some of the best infantry and vehicle maps in BF
Twisted Steel has that WW2 wow factor
Passchendaele when both dreadnought are up and there are planes and destroyers in the waters duking it out
Hainan Resort with the collapsing hotel and jets and helicopters and LAVs racing by
oh that's not allowed
for all of the hate 2042 has received, Orbital is a fucking banger
And Orbital for the rocket Levolution and crazy CQB around the bunker
As well as open areas for tank combat
fighting between the complexes at B1/B2 around the crawlerway on Orbital is peak infantry gameplay
Oh wow this dude is just pushing all the buttons
what in the name of Tom foolery is going on here
izoli is asking for a ban
We’ve devolved from stat shaming to literal fucking death threats

I don’t know man it’s just a reflection of your character
Troll be trolling. And kinda bad at it too.
clearly I see the lad lacks brain power of being a civil lad
anyway, just ignore him
Let's chill alright
Pizza tried being respectful and Izo decided to be a cunt
Ever heard of D1 lmao
!!when will 2042 be on track 
Soon™
That hill gets swamped so fast
It’s great for rocket pod strafes
Honestly I don’t think 2042 is the worst thing in the world
Oh 128 lol
It’s like a low C tier game at the moment
around the same for me I'd say too
High praise from someone calling it terrible
there are things that are pretty good about it
Knock it off and move on
I'm getting conflicting messages
If the game is a cesspool of dogshit surely a fun factor wouldn’t be possible
I do not have it in me to call 2042 a bad game
Because it’s just not bad
well I suppose I feel the same way about arma so :/
nah, Russia would complain that it's nuclear weapon.
how about these bad boys
I mean from a perspective 2042 is like a 7/10 game
It’s playable
The gameplay is good
"it's ok"
The vehicle balance is getting there but it’s improving
I do think the addition of classes smoothed out the gameplay significantly
as is tradition
was definitely on my list of most impactful updates
Because this community has the memory of a goldfish
it isn't a bad game, but I feel it isn't going to be as timeless as something like BF4 is. It's definitely going in the right direction and I'm glad about that.
The moment 2042 dropped people were right there becoming BFV apologists
“Hey guys it wasn’t that bad”
they hated bfv because they were blind
Here’s the thing
2042 suffered because people complained about BfV
And then it came to bite them in the ass
Although I’ll say that I’m blind because me no likely 2042
I just like portal
They realized that BfV is a good game but at the point it was largely too late
I completely skipped BFV because it's a WWII shooter and I do not like that time period.
Now that’s respectable
I like it because it gives me an excuse to kill pinwheel people
BF1 = 10/10
BFV = 8/10
BF2042 = 7.5/10
bullet spread itself isn't too bad, it's the implementation of it that was. Why the fuck did a DMR locked to semi have worse spread than an AR firing twice as fast? It made no sense.
Bfv with its drip
most of it was down to the absolute atrocity that was it's launch

I think BFV would’ve gone the distance if they added more maps and a few more guns and more US tanks
tf is wrong with your internet I'm getting maybe 10 no-regs per game at 60 ping
The US kinda suffer a little bit against Germany in BFV
Like add a Pershing or Wolverine
Would help big time
bit late for that
BF3 Remaster... I can smell it
Remasters are lazy
no i think i interpreted it right, you have 990,000 no-regs per game
Like hear me out add in the Mexican lads
they got tanks and shit
Hardline 2 set during Prohibition would probably be my favorite game ever
Dozer is enought 
which game is this?
i don't have this issue and i have higher ping, something is up with your machine idk
early 2042
In 2042 they released a Mexican specialist. And then believed that that wasn’t Spanish enough
So they added a Spanish specialist
From Spain
Except she wasn’t born in Spain
But she grew up in Spain
fair
I recall much frustration with the DM7 because this accurized, long range gun had the spread of a shotgun if you went anywhere near the firecap
assault rifles were beamers
Geez get a room you two
all the more reason the dm7 sucks and the svk is king
YES, I hated T1ing the DM7 the spread was so baddd
Izo and Pizza go away we’re done with your domestic abuse
SVK can't substitute an AR with the same ease
izo is the abusive one
it's too slow
Try the DM7 with close combat ammo
@harsh kraken , @ebon pilot ye knock it off guys. I'm saying it for last time
Y'all have heard of elf on a shelf now get ready for
Carl Gustav Firing a Carl Gustav
alright I’m gonna end this debate on this statement
close combat mags slap but you definitely want to switch to the standard mags if you're shooting further out, it's one of the only guns I've tried where you can really feel the difference in range
doesn't quite hit the same
Izo you generate the energy of an edgy 15 year old who thinks that because they’re edgy they’re so cool and likeable and they thing Germany could’ve won WW2
Ik :c
And pizza you are really petty
I was 2/3 tapping heads with it when Flaahpoint Rush XL first dropped in S4
At long range

You move on as well @calm bison
what did i even do i'm so confused
I think they take another shot to kill at mid range, it's noticeable, especially with the reduced muzzle velocity
Ok mom

svk with short barrel and standard rounds has a blazing fast kill time for what it is, especially considering ARs have gimped spread now
and it gets underbarrel nade launcher
Ngl a remote control bomb car would be pog for 2042
do they?

pick deagle as secondary and yer fine
I haven't noticed kekw
I must be doing something right then IDK if I remember I'll throw my setup at you and you can try it
Rn I'm going to bed because I have work tomorrow morning
Are we going to hear about the next bf game after season 6?
yah, get some sleep
svk not only gets HE ubgl but also one of the only guns to get the anti vehicle AP ubgl
I mean technically yes
Is there going to be season 7
dunno why they're making a dmr one of the only anti vehicle primaries but hey, bonus
We heard about BF2042 after S4 of BFV 
who knows
I mean an official announcement
Next BF info will be in early 2024 as EA stated
So what about season 7?
the SWS10 has a HE 40mm for it, so idk man
bf2043 when
the weapon attachments are all over the place
Or season 6 is the last one
id' be down for that honestly
DM7 gets massively reduced range with cqc rounds
6 kills Way from T1 on nightbird , lord im bout to bust
zampella's at the helm, so add titanfall jump kits :>
Its like a 4btk past 50m or something
Imagine that the next Battlefield game is literally a makeover package for 2042
I don't think vince zampella would do that
like I said, the SWS10 bolt action can accept a grenade launcher, but the ACR can't, hell the ACR can't even take a holographic? idk
ACWR is already powerful enough
I would cri

Vince zampella can possibly make the next battlefield like cod, as he led the medal of honor and a couple of very first COD.
the weapons that can have UBGL and the weapons that cant seem completely arbitrary
isn't that what most BF games are? Like 3 -> 4 -> Hardline is a makeover, 1 - V is a makeover almost.
yeah, it's actually a good implementation of the different ammo types because I have a reason to use something besides 1 type. makes it a little more varied than, say, my AK, where I don't see why I'd use anything other than standard.
this is my biggest problem with the game tbh, the attachments are poorly balanced and also randomly slapped on guns
he wouldn't but one can dream
for a game thats main gimmick was the plus system
something with fun infantry and vehicle mechanics would be ideal. With no over the top OP gadgets that do the work for you
Have Johan Söderqvist and Patrik Andrén do the soundtracks for the next bf game
2242, just make Titanfall Battlefield at that point
No
yus
not to mention the weird ammo system. For example guns where the default ammo type is high power or close combat, doesn't making that the default kinda make that the "standard issue" option then? EG, SCAR, Glock57
bf2342 be space wars
I'm just so incredibly desperate for a titanfall like game that's actually decent
I want starwars battfront without heroes
We want to play battlefield that is battlefield, not cod or Apex
battlefront is basically a battlefield crossover
Valve won't make tf3, but they may make tf alyx
tbh i actually think its a crowning example of why the different ammo types suck; close combat is only worth it if you're GUARANTEED to be within 40 metres the entire time you're using it, and high power is pointless because why would you be shooting over 100 metres move closer
armour piercing is literally useless and subsonic is ass
it also means the gun sucks because it gets no extended mag on anything
That's a star wars game, they didn't call it battlefield star wars
since basically only standard ammo gets higher mag size
because then they'd get sued lol
Disney won't like it
Disney more like
Is there a way to reset my stats? KD ratios and that stuff?
_ _
the first battlefront was basically battlefield 2 but star wars. then it became a super bankable name
high power has no real use on most guns, because since it doesn't increase damage in any meaningful capacity all it's doing is making hitting the same number of shots to kill harder vs any other ammot type. Of course, if it just flat increased damage, it would be the meta for a lot of guns.
The only reason I ever use it is because the M5A3 looks stupid with any other mags, or if I'm shooting at exceptional range.
Disney wasn't happy with the battlefront cosmetics
SVK gets 15 round standard extended magazines with 2btk and dm7 gets 15 round standard magazines with 3btk
its just worse and you cant do anything about it
niche complaint, I know, but the 20 round mags holding 15 and the 30 round mags holding 20 in the DM7 bothers me so much
!!when will Disney be based
Soon™
better be
Ohh yeah Ubisoft is making an open world star wars game
Hope, it's not assassin's Creed
High power is actually great on a handful of guns but only because of bullet to kill changes like you said; there is also no way to see these outside of spreadsheets online because the game doesnt tell you any fucking information about what you're using lol
I guarantee it will be built on the same framework as AC, GR, Division, etc., Ubisoft has a way of making the exact same game in a different flavor when open world is involved
95% of the time whatever has the largest bullets in the magazine is best
Ohh yeah, add server side destruction like the finals in the next battlefield
the lack of weapon data we have in a game about having quick swap weapon attachments is fucking insane
oh god no
the server side movement in the finals was god awful
the game is about customising your shit and they wont tell you anything about what it actually does
I know it technically is supposed to carry damage out further, but it's only useful to me for added velocity. I can only think of one instance off the top of my head when it was useful, which was shooting down into the ravine on Exposure since they made it such that I was compensating for essentially zero drop
absolutely hate server side movement in the finals it's horrible unless you're playing inside the server room
felt like you were constantly trudging through mud
tbh they should just give it the real bullets and it might suck less lol
What cosmetics? The stuff that came from the movies and lore?
Don't mind me running into battle with half-full magazines for no particular reason
I mean didn’t Disney give a license to use Star Wars?
so can confirm again. rush xl is mostly bots
Out of all the battlefront cosmetics there are none of them register as copyright infringement
Disney is supposedly auctioning off a bunch of IPs since they lost such a comical amount of money the past few years, it could go to a different company
perfect for weapon farming
they've flooded the market with so much star wars shit idk what else they could do with the IP
its got much better damage ranges on some weapons, on other weapons its completely useless
high power on the bsv is great compared to the subsonic, extra 50% range before a btk drop, but the game wont tell you this so how are you supposed to know
take inspiration from Kylo Ren -
So why didn’t Disney sue LEGO once they bought Lucasfilm?
Mooooar
On the vast majority of weapons its shit
yeah i know
Finally
I don’t think Disney will auction off Star Wars
Considering they built two themed lands to it
high power on the LCMG is pretty good, increases 4btk range from 30m to 50m
the thing is, you can present that much information to the player without making it an unreadable spreadsheet of stats
The Indiana Jones franchise is done
for instance, just tell me the flat damage of the gun instead of "firepower"
You can!!!!! They did it in fucking bf1!!!!!!
an undefined metric
And the IPs that Disney hasn’t exploited from Lucasfilm is Monkey Island
It literally USED to be there
Except those are game IPs
They removed it because they think all their players are dumb idiots
And Disney has a partnership with Rare
You don't need to know numbers just look at this bar that says firepower
What does it represent? Uhh... dont worry about that
give us actually useful stats in game
Shoot gun
k30 has highest firepower of the smgs but some of the worst range and kill times of them
it doesnt correspond to any stats
xdefiant manages to show off so many stats, it's a sight to behold
it's literally random
BF1 (and 4 to an extent) also told you how much damage you'd done on impact. So when I shot at a tank I knew when my round was well placed because it'd tell me it did like 35 damage. meanwhile in 2042 it only tells you that you did damage, not the amount. This is surprisingly annoying to me when trying to guage how dead a tank is.
turn on damage counters
its a fucking nightmare trying to figure out vehicle health in 2042
I don't have it open, it'll be in the hud somewhere
i assume its at full health always unless i get c5 on it
bet
someone could always be repairing its ass
for some random reason they haven't decided to make it on by default
or it could drop an irish APS
despite being default in every other bf game and offering immense amounts of vital information
on by default would showcase how little the attachments actually do
it would be better without the system repair. It's a pain when you land 2 ATGMs on a tank and with one press of G, all of that damage is gone.
at least it showcases what the attachments do
nothing? 
would rather it let me know that something is useless than not know at all 
its like watching two battleships firing soap at each other
there are attachments I avoid precisely because
A) I don't know what they do
B) The short description makes them sound harmful
For example, the surefire suppressor that helps recoil control, but hurts weapon accuracy. why would I put that on anything if I'm trading one type of inaccuracy for a worse one?
the issue is that it doesn't show attachments are useless
Will starfield have a good launch?
most people think the attachments in 2042 are well done because they have no idea what they actually do
I unironically choose attachments based on cosmetics because I don't notice much of a difference outside of very overt ones like suppressors or ammo.
@nova pulsar found the setting, it's in display -> hud general and about half way down
most attachments change it by 10%
while also offering a negative that's 10%
this makes short barrel the best barrel attachment in 99% of situations with almost no reason to ever swap
same with the grips
only grip without a downside is laser sight
and nade launchers until they fix that "bug" next patch
so you'd want to be running short barrel or wrapped/6ku suppressor (depending on btk values (not shown in game)), then nade launchers to laser sight on pretty much every weapon
and honestly, are you noticing a tiny red dot on the visually chaotic maps this game has
ammo being a shitshow you pick whatever is the largest mag then the second largest mag for extra ammo
never ever lmfao
i cant say the game is well balanced when literally all my guns are running wrapped suppressor and laser sight
why laser?
I like the little detail that the 6KU suppressor is a renamed 5KU suppressor, which is already an airsoft reproduction of a KAC suppressor from the 2000s
it would be nades if every gun had them
such a random naming choice
even after the update that adds in missing stat reductions?
i cant believe they're actually doing that this late in the game i almost feel like praising them
depends on what those stats actually are since it doesnt tell you in game
could be anything! but i think it says in the blog post
probably yes considering how good those nade launchers are, but if not then id still take them in two grip slots and laser sight for the other
recoil penalty
it said recoil iirc in the blog post
so nothing on pc
yeah LOL
the UBGLs are so good i struggle to make myself use weapons without them
every time a vehicle goes past and i dont have AP 40mm i feel like a chump
god damn this game is getting repetitive
Good?
just wait about 12 hours and season 6 will be released
I cant use them for shit ngl
the incendiary is kind of ass due to smoke killing it and fucking everyone running smoke
What glorious lobbies do you find where people hse smoke
is it coming out or are we going back to pre season 1 battlefield 2042
its not season 6 is it? thought it was the between season thing
but HE is solid, smoke is very useful for long range accurate smokes, and AP 40mm is like the highest anti vehicle dps in the entire game asides from c5
i honestly dont know
running sfar with HE AP smoke feels fucking insane with the sheer utility
i run sundance with sfar he c4 and smoke nades
you get super high range, big mag, HE for up close + AP for anti vehicle + smoke for fucking enemy sightlines (and then shooting HE into)
im having to do a repair on my game hoping it fixes my damn hitreg issue also the non reloading bug
yeah lots of people are going to be surprised by this.
basically, season 6 has been delayed by 6 weeks. So to fill the time there is a weekly rotation of the old limited time modes
how are you supposed to give up that utility for anything else
why cant everything run nades
Halo infinite >>>>>> BF 2042
been a while does the m16 still have launcher aswell?
halo infinite killed halo for good
bro speaking those facts 🗣️ 💯 💯 💯
2042 as of right now is the best fps shooter and its terrible xD
just shows the state of fps games
Sounds like someone hasn't played infinite
nah he right
you joined this server just to say that?
they're both 3/10 games
most people havent since 3weeks after launch
you dont need to compare shit against shit
i joined to tell you to stop your 2042 addiction
Wdym
difference is halo was supposed to be xbox savior but instead it just made it clear that xbox will never be able to have good exclusives
i'll stop when i have 1000 hours
150 more to go
no u
you know i have some pretty bad evidence against you too
pizza cat have you noticed poor hitreg again recently?
now i am actually interested
i get it where im shooting somebody middle of the body and im not gettign hitreg marekrs atall
i have
ESPECIALLY when enemies are near smoke
That doesn't happen in halo infinite 😎
do you have the events dialog enabled?
might be better idk i can only play 2042 because halo runs like shit
sometimes i have cases where i shoot someone head-on and it doesn't count as a client hit or server hit because it turns out there's an invisible piece of wood that blocking the shot for some reason
i actually dont maybe i should i have it so when i get high ping i get a network status ping up
i have had this aswell where i can see them clear as day but the wall hasnt rendered in but im talking about people running out of smoke towards me and im laying prone and i get no hit regs atall and then get killed
maybe my internet isnt fast enough
Does redux start right after s5 ends or there is a wait...
i hope it starts asap
in that case @willow sky might know more because I haven't experienced issues with smokes myself
it starts tuesday
it happens out of no where when enemies come out of smoke or near smoke
You know what else starts Tuesday
Halo infinite containment event 😎
you can hipfire, aim the fuck outta the head, you just won't get anything registered
halo adding aim assist to mouse was one of the funniest things. Will go down in history
ive had pretty bad netcode issues with the game aswell recently like jumping out of vehicle and going to shoot but the game not regiestering that ive hit my LMB
I stg hipfire in this game is bs
it could be the server too but hey i can't blame anyone when i spray and get nothing
i feel like the code got alot better but this season it got alot worse
run laser sight and it'll get even more infuriating when you get 0 hitmarkers
anyway, everyone have a pleasant day except for @ebon pilot he can suck my nuts
atleast they finally fixed teh ads after being revived xD
that was the most frustrating bug ever
ok thnx
speaking of reviving
anybody else had the issue when left mouse not being registered?
will dice ever fix the bug that makes it where revives just lock you and prevent you from doing anything if you don't do the whole revive
M1 not being registered? Haven't had that issue
343 would've fixed it 😎

So I never played BF3
Was the ACR tan in that game too
I only played 4 where it was a nice mud brown color.
I am still yet to see a tornado
bro thinks
Ok I'm being serious how tf do i get the tornado?
Its on specific maps
you don't spawn it manualy, it's just a random event
Yeah ik I've played so many times and i haven't gotten it
stranded ofen has two though
Is it rare?
I stg hourglass has it every map
not particularly
or its a sandstorm rather
it happens on Orbital with some frequency
Still a pain in the arse
oh hey remember Gulf of Oman, and how much everyone hated the near-blindness the whole game? yeah what if we did that, on a worse map, and made it the primary gimmick of the map?
I dont mind it so much when on the ground , slap on thermal scope and its actually quite productive , but i crashed every fcking jet i flew in sandstorm since you loose all perception of heights, forget about getting heli kills without just about floating above sand other wise you cant see the tip of your dick
as was the case in BF4
the sandstorm kills all vehicular combat that isn't tanks with thermal optics
which in turn functionally get much much harder to play against
Aight I'm bored see ya
Which map had sandstorm ? Icl i spent all my 2k hours either shanghai or locker with a sprinkle of paracel storm
Can anyone tell me why the fuck i keep getting the please reset your pasword pop up as soon as i start bf2042 i just bought it and cant even get in the game
There is nothing wrong with my ea account
Guys which do you prefer by looks and power? Choose (1) for ACW-R or (2) for M16A3
acw is the best
gulf of oman
Do you get a reward for completing all the missions for battlepass
no



There's a badge for getting 1175 points, but nothing for finishing all missions
A cool badge too 
Kinda wish there was a reward for finishing all the missions 😦
Plz give operation metro
Missions are extremely easy , why would they have a reward
A petty reward would be nice but it's not a big deal
what do you mean
we're in season 5
S6 is October
After S5 it's the Redux event which is basically replaying all the past mid-season events
That goes 6 weeks, then it's October and S6 starts

those 6 weeks are going to feel like forever
if there aren't any other things for you to do, yeah
especially if the event for that week sucks
anybody else miss the spotting nade for erveryone xD
true it think starfield drops on the 6th
I’m just going to be watching the early access footage since I’m away, and very hesitant
Because it’s a Bethesda AAA game
oh i wouldnt pay for it but as its on game pass day one i may aswell play it
get ready for the game breaking bugs and total system burning optimization
Game pass is going to be big for this
oh yeah i think after fo76 bethesda had no choice
as they are owned by xbox now imagine if people paid full price for the game and it ends up being as bad as fallout76 was after teh shitshow of redfall and halo inifnite xbox really cannot afford another mess up
anything else?
GOD
FUCKING
DAMN IT
how the FUCK do I fly up against THOUSANDS-HOURS pilots ????
I get shredded in seconds
It's literally impossible to get any aircraft up more than 15 seconds
How the hell does anyone get even a chance at training when your opponents are these guys ???
Casper Rush 128 moment
Rush XL on Kaleidescope

the drone is a menace
legal xp farm
go lis
I can't even train, I can't live in a chopper for 15 seconds, somehow less in a fighter
No, I want to fly
Have you tried an Air Superiority portal server?
No ?
or play against bots and get the hang of their handling
then try it out in a real match
train with ai
I did fly with AI but its boring, I slam them
Lmfao remember when the game first launched 😂😂
Just looking back through some of my early game play footage jesus no wonder the games player numbers died so fast
There wasn't even a score board
The damn hovercrafts crawling up the side of buildings 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Remember when you could lean in battlefield games
games? or just game
And roll
And crawl on your back when prone
Game*** auto correct
Moved from pc to phone
Pizza can you be honest with me?
I always seem to die to some low level console player from miles away with an iron site on a lmg do those low level new players have a higher kill chance or is it just coincidence?
you just had the worst luck that day
It's been since the game had been on game pass
😆
you will slam ai and get slammed by good players
there is no inbetween
watch videos if you want to be good at flying
Me?
I'm on about getting beamed by console players with iron sites from miles away and like I got 500+ hours in the game so I'm pretty sure I'm not that bad
My k/d isn't the best but I was negative due to when the game launched the whole hitreg issue so I've really had to fight to get back into positive k/d
I mean I'm normally around the 2.0 kd
very nice
But like I do try to always play the zones I get frustrated sitting back sniping my ADHD doesn't allow me to
i can see
Lololol remember when they made the dust helmet for mack that if you unlocked it on the battlepass it literally stopped your game from working it took them 14 dTs to figure out that it was a damn cosmetic that was breaking the game 😂
hacked helmet
Sometimes I think it is coincidence. Sometimes you point and shoot and effortlessly kill someone and think "hm I don't think they deserved that" and move on. It happens sometimes
today, today i am proud
Yo you don't understand the killtime differences blows my mind mind sometimes same weapon same distance sometimes its like 2 shots they did sometimes I put a full mag into somebody
😂
I think player netcode is still ABIT janky
Y u proud
the tickrate is super low
Yeah is there any plans on sorting that ?
Yea, sometimes you put your cross hair right on the head and pull a double headshot.
Also the tick rate
next engine upgrade
Is that why sometimes movement feels really janky I've had it where my cross hair can't keep up with my mouse
i am not sure either, ask paik
So not this game then
probably not yeah
I hate paik the wallhacking poop head
uh sorry i mean i am as shocked as you
But worse then that is people that leave the game if they are about to lose or have a bad k/d so it doesn't go on there record the amount of people that are like 3.0 kd because they leave all games they are less then that those people should get banned for life
some people do that yes, but well it is life
no
they'd have to pay more money for better servers for better tickrate
in exchange for 128p you get bad tickrate
Who even plays 128p
me!
people who dont mind the game failing to function
Is that why bfv feels more responsive then 2042?
Wtf are those hours played ? That's like every minute of every day since the launch of the game
i mean i don't actually know why i keep playing but this is my home now
i play less now
Are you good as a pilot ?
i wish
It's the one thing I can't do
but as r kelly always said to me, i believe i can fly
Something about kB&m and piloting makes me feel sick
Before he peed on you?
Or after ?
u don't know him, he is the reason i can fly now https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ol8aMttMtw
"I Believe I Can Fly" is a 1996 song written and performed by American singer R. Kelly, from the soundtrack to the 1996 film Space Jam. It was originally released on November 26, 1996, and was later included on Kelly's 1998 album R.

I do NOT own the rights t...
Honestly probs best not to post that it would be like posting a bill Cosby cocktail recipe
I bet you play with a super light weight mouse aswell
s e c r e t
I have three mice and for 2042 I play with the heaviest one of the lot 😂
Got a g703 g pro wireless and a g502 X plus
nice
And I use the 502 because tick rate so slow that the super light weight mics don't make any difference
it does @brisk hearth if you don't buy it and you play and level it up there's a couple places you can get bf coins for free
What optics do the ACR users in chat like
i never used it
I have the 8T on it right now I dont know what its called but the big square holo
That isn’t the one with the white reticle^
acr the burst fire?
fusion holo
Right now I’m liking the low magnification thermal, but it limits the range a lot since you can’t discern much at distance
bring a few
the low mag thermal is nice but also reaaally small
the 2.5x is an unwieldy magnification but the burstie has low enough recoil to make it work
can missiles maintain a lock/hit you when theres a wall between you
nah
or is exposure just...rough around the edges
because there was kind of a mountain between the EBAA and I
vehicles and missiles move so fast that they cant keep up with the server
its a close-medium gun, fusion holo is da best
you get lots of phantom hits
given my optimistic connection to this game at all times, I'd blame that.
They mentioned in the podcast today that a new mode is coming in season 6...... CARRIER ASSAULT? 👀 👀

what
please
(it wont happen)
this carrier? what
CARRIER HAS ARRIVED


if it will ever come, the carrier, it is faster than usual, i think it needs more years to build one, but we will get it after 2 years
i wonder if they will ever try a mode in between 64 and 128
they really do be just leaving potential fun on the table
like uss gerald r ford
like it took them nearly 2 years to try a 48 player mode and it was instantly received with praise
wheres the 80 or 96 player mode dice
in the good decision making factory
tell rick, i am a good captain too and i will make him proud
I got a 104 revives a couple mins ago, is that even a good number or shall I keep going to like 150?
When does the update come out?
keep going, don't let numbers stop you
YES SKIPPER In privates voice
Yeahh, I hated that match tho lmao
😉


This is what Lis was made for, right?
sounds like somebody didn't like ww1
It let me live out my Canadian birthright. That is being a war criminal.
BF1 and V are more challenging to play compared to 2042
I am a mid pilot but evading a jet and two helicopters in the Condor is a damn good feeling when you pull it off
I like BF1 over BF5 tbh
It might not be Verduns gameplay, but it has a nice spin on WW1.
You feel genuine adrenaline in BF1
And I get to pilot Warhammer tanks :3
I hear people scream all the time when playing medic
MEDIIIIC
And stabbing my syringe into a friendly's ass
men

So update tomorrow?
yes
Well before they do that they need to at least respect 128 first..... Reclaimed doesn't support it and the season 6 map may do the same which is eternally depressing
No I'm talking about the fact that reclaimed was built from the ground up to be 64p only. That's the issue. They need to add more sectors to it or at the very least give us an unbalanced mess on 128 conquest
I feel adrenaline when Bf5's end of the round kicks in, bf2042 doesn't have anything like that
not true
bfv true bf1 not true
bf1 is only loved by redditors this year some of them realized that its the most boring bf game out there
Battlefield Redux is coming out in 2 hours right?
yea
Redux is an event they're running before S6 is released in October. It's basically just replaying the midseason events from seasons 2, 3, and 4
So that means Tactical Conquest, Battle of Nordvik, and Shutdown are going to be coming back
plus all the cosmetics
Did Redux start?
Just got the update, is it installable now?
I don't know about PlayStation because they got the preloading stuff
I got timed out yesterday for 3 hours, did I do something wrong?
How can I contact mods?
DM @clear spade
Thanks 🙏
np

Can you reply to ModMail?
Yeah yeah
1 hour left


Do you want to add each other on Battlefield 2042?
Since you’re in Europe
you need an appointment sir
Oof I just joined a game as soon as it ended 
Who the fuck looked at this game and decided that what it needed was more helicopters
we need more!
I'm already spending half my time looking up
it will be full time now
Those shitters are oppressive
Tano are you an engie main
you might as well become one of the heli
Seems like it, though not out of choice
Despite spending a lot of time as Crawford and Boris I have no masteries on them
Crawford mastery angers me
Because their mastery stats have nothing to do with doing their jobs
I feel like all the engineers should have something to do with repairing
not just 6 in total
Bring back passive radar missiles to the AA
Or add a new AA like the ADATS that has a beam riding laser guided missile
am i wrong in think the ttk is less in this game than the others?
I think it's about as short as BFV, but with one key difference: engagement ranges are a lot longer.
Damage fall off on most weapons has been significantly reduced so even a basic assault rifle is very dangerous at long range
The only weapons not to benefit from this state of affairs are snipers and shotguns.
Shotgun range is as low as usual, with the added caveat that they're always bugged and half their pellets are liable to just disappear into the ether
And snipers are likely to get you killed if you're less than three hundred metres away
You know the funny thing
Modern shotgun shells are extremely effective to about 50 yards (concert it to your measurement system)
7 minutes
I hate how almost every game has shotgun pellets disappear into space
Guys
So how will Redux go? Just skin packages from other seasons for purchase?
Aside from the game modes
Where are the new stuff?
new season lets go!
!
Dang I was hoping to try out the update before I head off to work. Seems I got my timings wrong
Still got 45 minutes before I need to go
No Season, there will be REDUX for 6 weeks now


If you happen to get the same error as me, here's the workaround : https://www.reddit.com/r/EAApp/comments/11kli7b/potential_workaround_for_error_500_and_things/
Enjoy
Hey in a way it's tides of war with a weekly challenge.
Heavy doubt.
It would be cool.
Carrier assault is genuinely an interesting game mode.
*excited
even battleships have AA turrets
Downloading update
THEY DID IT
oh wow
THEY FUCKING FIXED FLIGHT ASSIST
Buff vehicles.
I CAN REST IN PEACE NOW
They’re making vehicles indestructible.

we will go total destruction

jk man what a dream i have
We going World of Tanks now.
hahah yessss

world of warships soon
world of warplanes too
nothing lol
it's only on attack helicopters...
LOL
the nightbird, the one that feels it the most, still has it
...
I'm just going to go cry in the corner
I thought nightbirds were considered attack helis
Along with the stealth helis
my dream too >> someday
The ROF on the 30 mm is ridiculous now
me too
they must be going through and adjusting them each individually
well this is a good step at least. The attack heli feels so much better
he worked very hard
each vehicle seems to have been programmed to not be affected by most global changes
How does the progression for for redux work I don't see any tabs will I just get a random notification at the end of round?
like the fix that allowed you to control the rear cam in jets hasn't been passed on to the helis or condor yet
and said fix was present in the bf3 jets anyways
I wonder if vehicles are controlled via scripting where there's not an inheritance model.
idk, shots in the dark
no i don't want to write more c++ more than i already am
u.u
well anyways I'm off on holiday now. Will probably try these changes out properly when I return and send some feedback then
alright
have fun
REDUX is not live yet
Someone gotta do a review of the patch later
It starts at 12 UTC
(in 3 hours)
Kk
Which is 12 UTC 
i do have the dok on my phone
So you got that backpack for me ???????
No 
The attack heli does feel a lot more potent now
It’s damage is consistently higher with better convergeance
And the two tow’s are deadly
terror from the sky
I honestly might make it my main heli for the simple fact that it isn’t a chore to fly
Yeah the enemy will be looking for camo planes
There's no way to share video here right?
Being a regular or nitro boost the server allows it AFAIK
Oh dang I forgot to try out the jet
What were the jet changes?
Just a slight adjustment to the mouse lift off compensation
Could potentially make it feel better when making slight adjustments
Ah yeah, and a change to the pods if I remember correctly?
Something to do with its range, but I personally stick to the agms
I think many will, especially when vehicle counts go up
I’ve just always felt like that’s it’s main purpose
And the 25s are good enough against infantry
I'm just awful in 2042 jets. Too fast for my old man reflexes 😆
I do enjoy dogfighting in 1942 era planes tho.
These jets are pretty good, although the roll speeds are still mismatched

I just don't like how max turn speed = just go as fast as possible
It’s rather simple I will admit
Question, can you currently play bf 2042 on official servers, because I tried and couldn't find playable 128 and 64 servers without waiting in the lobby for years
Have you updated to 5.3 yet?
Depends what time u play
had an update today
Check if the game disabled crossplay on you.
Could be new update woes, they did say matchmaking could be disrupted as they update
Just keep at it
ok thx
But yeah, some proper speed control would be good for something that adds some mechanical complexity but at least with this you just focus on turning
Heli impressions so far:
Good
*Gunner Thermals
*Agility increase (feels much better - responsive yet still organic)
Bad
*Double TOW is way OP (needs reload time increase if you're going to have 2)
*30mm ROF buff does help against the Nightbird mnismatch but it wrecks infantry at too fast a rate. Maybe split the difference and do 400ROF instead of 600
Does the new update let you use the guns where they don't let you use the railgun and the only thing that is unforgivable to me at least we can do it was a good day for you to go back and to control it to bring the legend to you before I was like 25 times already
Yeah the double tow is absolutely mad. That alongside the rocket buffs makes it an absolute menace
I will say this though, it's nice having the TOW and reticle matchup actually be proper instead of being way offset. That much is a nice change.
I wish I could play more of the update to provide some more solid feedback but I can’t for a weak
heck even gunships
Wildcat need something to be able to kill it aerially. Wildcat was previously basically immune to most air vehicles, even when caught off guard. (With the exception of a good stealth heli team)
One thing I couldn’t quite understand though is that they say in the patch notes that damage from the missiles is now mostly blast. Is blast direct damage or aoe?
Not when the tunnel vision blueberry is driving it
What I need is the all out superiority to come back so I can really try out the attack heli
Direct (impact) damage only applies with hits that make contact while blast damage is AOE. In Battlefield, blast damage has inner radius and total radius. Let's say inner radius for example weapon is 2m and total radius is 5m. Anything within 2m of the target will do max damage for that weapon. Anything between 2 and 5 will do progressively less damage until at 5m it will do close to zero and anything beyond 5 does zero dmg.
