As you should. I got BF4 when it was cheap and was lucky enough to claim the DLC when they made it free for a short period.

#

So I had a fully loaded game for effectively $20.

#

And I really got into BF4.

#

One thing that would be cool for BF2042 is unique takedown animations exclusive to each specialist.

#

Like, what if Dozer had a takedown where he bodyslammed his enemy with his shield?

radiant prism
#

please

#

Nah not planning on, I'm sure it won't hit my expectations and after BO2 I really had it with the CoD series

mossy badge
#

Vault maybe 100+

radiant prism
#

Standard issue will be 70 but there will be more expensive editions

dusty totem
#

Well yeah

fallen matrix
#

I prefer battlefield way above CoS

#

Cod*

#

So I'd rather invest my time in this awesome game series than the toxic childish mic screaming community of cod

#

Aka camper game

dusty totem
fallen matrix
#

Would had been epic with a campaign

dusty totem
#

It has so much potential for a good campaign

fallen matrix
#

Guess the campaign wasn't included because they didn't want to delay the game or just didn't had enough time for it

#

A shame is what it is

dusty totem
ivory canopy
#

Would have been nice to show origin stories for each specialist.

dusty totem
#

To earn money and spend less time on it

ivory canopy
#

Only problem for Irish is Michael Williams is deceased, so they can't make new spoken lines for Irish.

fallen matrix
#

They would had earned much more with a campaign included, problem with some developers is their short term thinking rather than long term

dusty totem
ivory canopy
#

Yeah. Doesn't seem like they considered long-term viability of BF2042.

dusty totem
#

Out of not making a campaign

ivory canopy
#

When the servers go down, what will you do then? Play with AI? That'll be far too easy.

ivory canopy
#

One thing I really stress on is how much it sucks that they place AI in servers that are like, half full.

dusty totem
#

I play with ai sometimes

ivory canopy
#

The AI in those situations always drastically underperforms the human players.

#

And I don't really like banking on the AI players to get my guns to T1

fallen matrix
dusty totem
fallen matrix
#

Most battlefield players are vets

ivory canopy
#

I wouldn't mind it so much if they had AI that could put up some sort of fight. I almost never die to AI in TDM.

#

Any time I do, it's always so embarrassing.

fallen matrix
#

It doesn't even qualify for training since it's too easy

#

Just random target picking

ivory canopy
#

Yeah. Kinda harkens to the AI in Dota 2.

#

You can win against Unfair bots in Dota 2, just by building your character for strong splitpush and engagement avoidance.

acoustic oar
#

A decent multiplayer with good maps, less bugs and adding new content at a faster pace would have made 2042 more successful and not a campaign. Only a minority plays the campaign let alone finishes it. Most people prefer the mp.

radiant prism
#

I just find fighting AI boring

ivory canopy
#

Me too

sullen quarry
#

Hey guys

#

Footlong please

fallen matrix
sullen quarry
ivory canopy
#

Footlong barrel on an SMG

ivory canopy
#

Not for human consumption

radiant prism
#

resulted in slight fuckery

ivory canopy
#

I see a lot of fuckery in takedowns induced by nearby walls and shit. It's funny.

radiant prism
#

True

acoustic oar
ivory canopy
#

That's probably the best takedown animation

radiant prism
#

Theres a lot of good ones

#

only one I dont like is the default one

placid echo
ivory canopy
#

Default one has the benefit of being very fast.

radiant prism
#

true

#

but the point isn't just to be effective

#

:)

fallen matrix
#

Shit is so advanced nowadays creating games that it came a lot more harder to develop, especially if you only have a small team, or even if you have a few thousand employees working on it

solid plume
#

so did they kill seasons? is this game finally dead?

ivory canopy
#

What if there was a takedown where you make your opponent dance and then they just drop dead?

chilly jacinth
#

no

placid echo
#

Next season is in October

solid plume
#

gotcha

radiant prism
#

We're just between seasons right now

solid plume
#

just delaying

radiant prism
#

They decided to bring back the old events

solid plume
#

lol

placid echo
#

This is basically an in between event

radiant prism
#

bruh

#

people just can't be pleased huh

fallen matrix
radiant prism
#

imagine wanting a game to die because you dont like it

#

Thats just sad

ivory canopy
#

Like, Killer Instinct had a mechanism where instead of fatally killing your opponent, you can make them dance instead.

solid plume
#

I play it; dont make assumptions about what I desire

ivory canopy
#

If BF2042 had that, that would be so memetic.

arctic grove
#

some people want to spend money but they can't

solid plume
#

rather they focus on map releases then the little game modes inbetween is all

fallen matrix
#

Yeah count me in

#

Then we have battlefield

radiant prism
#

Yeah I can understand wanting more maps but people have been asking for some of these modes back for a while now, not to mention it’s nice to give people who missed the events some of the rewards

fallen matrix
mossy badge
solid plume
#

but the modes aren't 'back', well; kinda.

#

here n gone

ivory canopy
#

S3 was peak 2042 imho

solid plume
#

talk about wanting a mode back; where's the hardcore lobbies

radiant prism
#

Control at least seems to be here to stay

radiant prism
solid plume
#

good luck

ivory canopy
#

Wouldn't it be cool to see the L22 in this game?

fallen matrix
#

Would be cooler if we had icbms

radiant prism

ivory canopy
#

Ah

fallen matrix
#

Best way to clean the area and take the objectives

#

Icbms

ivory canopy
#

Shit outta nowhere goes BOOM, and then Angel is like, "THAT WAS SOMETHING! RIGHT?! 😃"

fallen matrix
#

Will never happen so it's just a fantasy

solid plume
#

dont get me wrong, portal is fantastic, just that you need a player base to support it.

#

and we all know the issue there lol

fallen matrix
#

Then when respawned

#

Nuclear fallout

ivory canopy
#

896/1200 with the AC9

#

I've got it sussed, just about

#

My problem was I was doing it wrong, in some ways.

fallen matrix
#

Problem solved

#

Another man's problem is another man's solution 🤣

ivory canopy
#

Next specialist, George Haggard, will have the special gadget to summon ICBM barrages from afar.

fallen matrix
#

Battlefield Stone Age next

ivory canopy
#

Stone toss headshot from approximately 800 bones

No they're obviously going to be riding pterodactyls

#

"Fred, why is there blood on your car?"
"You don't wanna know, Wilma. I've had a loooooong day."

dusty totem
#

Would be actually cool though to have an axe or tomahawk thrower as a weapon

ivory canopy
#

ngl them adding Haggard as a specialist would be baller.

mental delta
dusty totem
#

We need throwable axes

mental delta
#

Who thinks next game is gonna feature specialists here ?

#

Just for a little survey

#

📝🧐

ivory canopy
#

I don't think it's a bad idea, if executed right. The way 2042 did it is, ehh....

#

Helps if the game started good.

mental delta

#

Throwable shit is the best u kiddin

I'm thinking they'll likely make the specialists follow weapon restrictions more specifically.

the voices wouldnt be so bad if they didnt say the cheesiest shyt

There hasn't been a voiceless character in a Battlefield title. Unless you mean one without a specific personality.

but now they don't say that stuff

#

What if next April Fools they re-enable those voice lines?

remote kiln
#

they cant

#

theyre in the process of doing over some voicelines

solid plume
#

for april fools they should change the game title to BF4 Remastered

fallen matrix

#

15th specialist please, DICE

#

The balance of classes must be achieved

velvet sand
#

oh man, DICE sent staff out for another round of interviews...why...why do they keep doing this

solid plume
#

hey at least they put in being able to make your own squad, change squads, I complained about that for a long time

ivory canopy
#

They should up the squad player limit to 5.

solid plume
#

still wish they'd allow for more than 4-man but I'm not confident that will ever happen

ivory canopy
#

BF2 had up to 6. BF4 and (iirc) BF1 had up to 5.

solid plume
#

and the game with 128 player matches has 4 only

#

makes sense....

fallen matrix
solid plume
#

oh god

ivory canopy
#

May as well remove squads then

velvet sand
fallen matrix
#

More vehicle and vehicle spots yes

solid plume
#

got some friends on the other night, were only a squad of 3

#

and we dominated

#

against a team of 32

#

not sure the squad play even the issue as much as just players don't incorporate any thinking into their play

#

they just pew pew and die

fallen matrix
solid plume
#

and then when you make a comment in chat like "lets focus B2 not B1"
they all say 'get lost boomer kek lul try harder"

fallen matrix
#

It's a teamplay game

chilly jacinth
#

sometimes

#

when the team has atleast one squad with functioning brains

solid plume
#

and god forbid you get matched with a semi-decent team, when the round ends, the server resets, dumps half the entire lobby, match makes with enitrely new people, and you start all over.

chilly jacinth
#

thats my favorite

solid plume
#

gets me so tilted

fallen matrix
#

I only dislike people who ragequit in the middle of the match, outnumbered your side causing you to lose the match

dusty totem
#

Eh battlefield players have a relatively well functioning mind

chilly jacinth
#

not enough caps for that statement

solid plume
#

the other day in breakthrough the enemy all abandoned their condor on our side of the battle, was sittin in a field half damaged like a cherry pie fresh out of the oven with a 'do not touch' sign around it, of course I start b-lining it to it thinking sweet jesus this is too good to be true; as two of my teammates with less braincells than needed to breathe properly decided to RPG it from a distance.

chilly jacinth
#

classic

if there was a hotkey to fall to your knees for the rest of the match and have your player start crying into their hands...

Curiosity killed the cat

I came to the conclusion that the aerial vehicles' crosshairs are not aligned with the center of the screen. This ruins the gameplay and means that the pilot cannot aim at targets as satisfactorily as it was in BF4.

you're still going to have to buy a proprietary apple only usb-c cable to do the high speed transfers, least thats the rumor I hear

nothing different about it other than a little chip inside that says it's apple brand

Hmm Hmm apple knows how to make money with little small things

frozen loom
#

Samsung does the same thing. Both are dumb.

#

And Google is just worse because they don't have a repair program. They just tell you to buy a new phone instead.

prices keep going up, yet we're also breaking records for consumer spending, people are not slowing down.

until people stop spending, prices wont stop.
but people clearly wont stop spending until their savings is tapped, their CC's are maxed, and they're back to living paycheck to paycheck, which is seemingly where most consumers find peace and comfort

why would companies not be after your money

#

I don’t think I’ve ever died to a Boris turret

ivory canopy
#

Turret just feels so weak for its use case

#

I mean, it does target vehicles now, which is nice.

#

But who's to say it won't be immediately destroyed?

gray comet
#

It’s a Ranger without the ability to walk or look cool

#

(I have never played Boris and am purely making things up)

ivory canopy
#

Ranger can survive a shot from DXR with HP ammo. The turret just can't.

#

I know for sure. I've scored 1HKs on those turrets using the DXR.

#

Unless they changed it

gray comet
#

Ranger can also take a hit from Casper’s drone. Yes it’s mostly broken, but it will survive.

radiant prism
#

The turret is weak but it would be frankly annoying if it had more health

#

Considering it spots you and can do a buttload of damage

ivory canopy
#

I could only see it being viable against large vehicles, like tanks.

radiant prism
#

I end up in low health situations often and that turret can be a problem, especially if Im actively trying to deal with another person

ivory canopy
#

imho it should more readily target infantry, but only if there's no vehicles within its detection range.

#

Why does the AC9 behave differently every day?

#

Seems like it wants to be a lot less consistent than it was yesterday when I was shredding ass left and right

ivory canopy
#

AC9 is AWFUL in CQ mode, yet TDM has too few players

#

Just, SHEER AWFUL

#

This is why I want to rush the T1s for these last two SMGs because they just don't work in CQ. Maybe the K30 fares slightly better. But not much.

fresh lintel
#

I feel like every gun has its use and while SMGs like the K30 and AC9 struggle at range, they make up for it in point holds.

ivory canopy
#

Well it's fine at CQB ranges. But that's all it has.

#

In normal ranges experienced in CQ, it just doesn't work

fresh lintel
#

Just gotta close the gap. Its all you can do.

#

Or wait for them

ivory canopy
#

Yeah it really is all one can do

fresh lintel
#

Which I mean it sounds easier said than done lmao

ivory canopy
#

That's why I have been using it in TDM

fresh lintel
#

I havent played TDM since BF3 where i'd use the SPAS12

ivory canopy
#

Like I said, TDM just has better engagement ranges for it. It's just a pity that it's so seldom played by comparison to CQ

#

Any chance to make this gun less miserable to T1, I'll take.

fresh lintel
#

I need to try TDM, but I do recall reclaimed being buggy as hell

ivory canopy
#

I tried playing CQ with it and had literally 0 kills with it

#

Well, maybe 1 or 2 but compared to over 20 deahts

#

What felt like 20 deaths

fresh lintel
#

This is why i'd play like.. Lis or Crawford so I can do something at range.

#

Or Mackay so I can go yeet speed

gray comet
# ivory canopy Just, SHEER AWFUL

huge maps
longer sightlines
open terrain on many of them

what, you mean to tell me a 9mm with like 3 inches of barrel isn't the optimal weapon for these conditions? Inconceivable

ivory canopy
#

I rest my case

#

I am trash

fresh lintel
#

Nah

ivory canopy
#

I usually don't use laser sights nor grips on my guns. Only underbarrel I use is a GL/shotgun or bipod, if available.

#

The AC9 is literally the only weapon I've had to resort to using a laser optic just to make it usable.

#

You could also blame my prior tactics. That might be part of why I despise it.

#

I will say this. It is at least a bit more consistent than the P90 once set up right

#

Then again I never resorted to the lasers with the P90 so...

#

I'd like for a gun to be flexible. If not that, at least excel for its intended purpose.

#

Often times I just lose gunfights with that gun in particular. Same with the P90

#

Like, the enemy could have a VCAR and if we get our shots in simultaneously, I'm the one that loses.

#

More often than otherwise.

Maybe I sound like a whiny SOB. Oh well.

fresh lintel
#

Too be fair the VCAR does like.. 3 shot bodies

#

2 shot headshots

ivory canopy
#

Well, I'm trying to provide a sample of an arguably worse CQB gun beating what in theory should be good.

#

I have lost SO MANY gunfights using the P90/AC9 because of their spread.

fresh lintel
#

The one thing the AC9 has over the VCAR is hipfire

ivory canopy
#

true that

fresh lintel
#

Tighter COF and bloom I think? I havent T1d either

ivory canopy
#

I'm on the path to T1 the AC9

#

and the early kills with it are so badly stigmatized that I just despise the gun.

#

I don't care that I even have insanely good matches with it. The first impressions dug the hole too deep for it to recover in my eyes.

#

That I suffered so hard to get to the point where I unlocked items that made it quasi-usable for me.

If you're queuing for a single mode and you keep getting a single map, chances are its trying to throw you in the same lobby you cancelled.

Its best to play another mode and then try again after

Each buck pellet from an SG should do the amount of damage as a pistol shot. I don’t care who you are, you’re not surviving a point blank 12 gauge

ivory canopy
#

Which one particularly? The MCS?

#

The MCS in BF2042 is hilariously underpowered.

#

Far and away the worst primary weapon option available.

#

For how much I've bitched about how crap the AC9 is, or how crap the P90 is, they're leagues above the MCS.

I T1ed the MCS so I don't have to touch it again

It's a weapon for people with patience

I only used the MCS once during tdm and had actual fun.

#

But I hate it.

#

Its so bad.

robust vapor
#

It induces accuracy penalty

ivory canopy

Like, at least the P90 and AC9 have the good hipfire accuracy to bank off of.

fresh lintel
#

Its so bad I love it

#

Same with the VCAR

#

Its awful

After one round of offensive breakthrough I am 100% the SPH is a better primary than any primary

Its the round you teach your 9 year old to shoot on.

Well, most calibers are sized based on the inside diameter of the rifling crests

chilly jacinth

what is the game stored on?

#

hdd or ssd

versed ridge
#

hdd

fresh lintel
#

If you're playing on Xbox one, this is normal and happens every so often.

Mainly happens once you load up the game. The walls blocking off certain tunnels or entrances are technically not there. You can move through them. But itll fuck your vision a bit.

#

And you cant shoot through the walls.

chilly jacinth
versed ridge
fresh lintel
#

Yeah i'd say just spawn at base instead of at an active fight so your computer can load the game.

#

Cause during this state theres a chance for enemies to not render too.

chilly jacinth
#

move the game over to an ssd and your problem will be solved

fresh lintel
#

SSDs are the future, and becoming the minimum requirement sadly.

pine roost
#

One reason why going back to older games feels so strange. Load times are practically instant on a hard drive

#

Im talking around the era of 2007 though. Things have changed

fresh lintel
#

Yeah right? I do miss those days.

pine roost
#

But of course as games try to look even better with more grandiose scale it just ends up piling up on storage space and load times

fresh lintel
#

Honestly I just wish games would stop with the graphical upgrades and worry about game performance and art direction

pine roost
#

Same here

fresh lintel
#

Because i'm sorry: I don't care how many wrinkles you can put on Boris' face before my computer starts to melt from the rendering.

pine roost
#

Means we’d be able to consistently run it

fresh lintel
#

No ones going to be looking that closely lmao

pine roost
#

But even then, you get games like starfield that I think look downright gorgeous but some people still say it’s graphics are bad.

#

If the graphics were any better nobody would run it

fresh lintel
#

Yeah I dont get it. But then Cyberpunk exists and its graphics are just phenominal

pine roost
#

Like, I played splinter cell chaos theory the other day and while the level detail and texture quality may not be all that great, the colour usage and ambient effects really made those levels interesting to play through and be in

fresh lintel
#

And even then it doesnt change much. Starfield looks good and has so much to deal with mechanically that it needs lesser graphics.

Cyberpunk has less but its still a hefty game for its graphics.

#

And yeah thats one thing some older games have.

Atmosphere. Better usage of lights.

pine roost
#

It’s just their expectations are constantly being raised, and when the graphical quota is met and they are surprised they can’t run it, it’s literally surprised pikachu

sullen quarry
#

"Just buy a SSD" is the only thing you'll hear when you bring up load times and whatnot

fresh lintel
#

Like FEARs use of Dynamic lights are probably only beat by DOOM 3?

sullen quarry
#

Followed by "SSDs are cheap"

fresh lintel
#

I mean they are arent they?

pine roost
#

Which is true for the most part

#

The solution on our end is to get one

fresh lintel
#

Compared to how much they used fo cost at least

pine roost
#

Simply due to the size and scale of what needs to be loaded now

sullen quarry
#

I don't even have $30 so we can get that out of the way right now

#

laptops these days don't even give a full terabyte SSD

fresh lintel
#

I cant even afford to wash my clothes

#

But i'd still say get an SSD lmao

sullen quarry
#

then they say "just save up"

fresh lintel
#

Thats.. Yeah.

#

Poor folk have to do that.

#

I mean alot of folk have to do that but theres nothing wrong with itm

sullen quarry
#

If your advice starts with "Just", don't bother giving advice because it's not helpfu

fresh lintel
#

Theres mo solution other than: Save up and get a SSD.

#

Games are moving on. They need more powerful faster equipment to run them.

#

Its just how things are 🤷‍♀️

pine roost
#

I hate to see what they will be like in a few years time. Basically everything will be over 100

fresh lintel
#

God tell me about it. I wont even be able to install a game on my xbox at that rate lmao

pine roost
#

You have to be strategic with what games you actually want to play

sullen quarry
#

1 TB SSDs should be standard in all laptops

#

Why tf are they still giving 512 GB SSD

fresh lintel
#

I just keep 2042, Destiny 2, Infinite and a couple small single player games installed right now

pine roost
#

All depends on how much it costs

#

My laptop only needs 512 since I’m not gaming on it

fresh lintel
#

Because its cheaper. But also not all laptops are meant for gaming.

pine roost
#

A 1TB one would make it more expensive after all

sullen quarry
#

Laptops close to $1,000 have only 512 GB

If you want a gaming laptop itll be more expensive and have what you need
