Someone know what happened to gooey_bonbon ?
I think I saw him in my last BF2042 match
@edgy oriole was it you ?
You can @ him
Did he do well?
Yeah let's see what he got to say
Did you Dozer him?
Idk I didn't look at his score, I just saw there was a lad named gooey at the end of the match
I don't play that crap of a specialist 
Dozers the best
Absolutely goated ar specialist
Not too bad but I hate specialists for some reason so ask me about any specialists I'll say it crap
Why the specialist hate
They are a cool idea
Ngl
Because we used to get this :
You're going to hurt Dozer mains' feelings.
You'll hate to see a Dozer in trench maps
Introduce River Somme as a portal map and watch everyone scramble
Lol I hate all specialists nothing personal
Then you don't play 2042 I'm guessing
Not good either to me, I don't like the idea of playing a special person with defined abilities, I prefer factions with normal looking fighters and that's all
I got 400 hours on it lol, I don't like specialists but it's a better game now and the most populated BF game so I don't really have the choice if I want to play BF
Coremem ?
Yes but it got way less players as there's no crossplay on those games, BF4 servers don't feature DLC maps for example
coreman
I believe that's the term
a person that's responsible for healing soldiers
BF4 doesn't have a hacker problem, but BF1 and BFV do
They should ban the entirety of China from playing it tbh
Yeah but it's less on playstation servers
There is no statistic to prove that
Well it's kind of common sense
In all my BF4 matches played, I have not met hackers
I'm talking about 5 and 1
BF1 and BFV it's 1/10 matches
Ha, I'm a good Angel player of you ask, that's the only specialist I can play 😬
That's a horrific ratio
Question EVERYTIME I die I can’t see my deaths but EVERYTIME I kill someone it updates my death is anyone having that problem or is it just me
Game has no anticheat
And 4 does?
Idk idc
anyway
It's personal experience
Yeah it got one I think
Why tf did they not put anithcheat for v???
Excited for wha?
Warsaw revamped
Okie
Honestly dudes and dudettes, play on the platforms you prefer.
Nothing's making me switch to console
Which is how defense looses
Nah we just wait for an epic comeback
It's better
But pc is more convenient
Platform choice is personal preference
Mary who woke you up on the wrong side of the bed this afternoon
I just dislike people talking about platforms
I'd rather everybody mind their own business and enjoy games without pushing their preferences on others.
I'm tilted
We know, but
hey Paik gamers
You're right, why bother.
Hello
Oh yea I had that problem in bf when they where talking about what’s better pc or pl I feel like ppl get weird about it
Most of us do, but it's a scenario that will happen
Yea then they be saying pc players are rich compare to console players I think we should just be having fun and who cares about what ppl have
Or what they play on
Yeah
No ?
Huh?
hooray for diversity
My preferred gaming platform is the best one. The brand new IPhone 15 Pro max with ray tracing. Get it at your local Apple Store or Apple.com.

Mobile phones are the best
That's fine, please enjoy.
Observer knows the way
Was making a joke Mary. Sorry
PC: $2k + game costs & peripherals
Xbox: $500 + game costs & peripherals
PS: $500 + game costs & peripherals
PC: my system has 120+ FPS
Xbox & PS: So.....
Xbox X|S series & PS5: same cost as prior series, 120+ FPS
If you can afford it and you like it, it's all good
I'm not for PC
I agree with this 100%
I just simplified it
Yet meets these PC enthusiasts boasting about how good their system is
Nobody gives a fuck
Exactly
We are all here for the love of our game we share
Egos: 😦
Yup
Pc users do tend to call console players hackers and brag tho
Will not deny that one
Aim assist can be pretty busted, but it's not the player's fault
You can use controller on PC so there's no reason to be mad
It's not a hack when we have to use analog sticks, whereas you get to use a mouse and keyboard
(Yes, we all know we chose this ecosystem)
It's totally up to you
Which is what I said
Paik Gaming
Yes
Funny how people said I dislike talking about platforms but yet the same people are doing just that
It's non-inflammatory
We are all in agreeance
Okay okay fine
We are done talking about platforms.
Platform talk is always fun
Told y'all the scenario will always happen
Man I love final fantasy and ff16 & ff7 rebirth both is psv exclusive if only it was multi platform

Everyone wishes exclusively was gone, except those fanboy fucks
They want to sell their products
All of my homies HATE epic games and their game exclusively from steam
Your game launcher is shit
I have red dead II on epic I couldn't wait for steam release that's the only game I bought there
definitely wait for steam release
I personally bought BF2042 on EGS because it was $5 with coupon applied
It still needs the EA launcher to play so it doesn't really matter where I buy it
I'm a console player chill bud
And pc
I don't know what you're getting at
I'm thinking bout buying Payday 3 on EGS ngl
Nice price
I've been staying away from Steam as of late
two?
Yeah like a Neptune account or whatever planet they use
How so
Steam is pretty good on deals n shit usually on games
for two
I said 3
I thought you were gonna mention a second point
you don't start something by saying "for one" if you aren't going to follow it up with "secondly"
thanks a lot Einstein
I don't think it's that big a deal
All I heard was the gameplay wasn't very good
I never paid more than the asking price + DLC bundles
I definitely bought the anniversary bundle that included all DLC up to that point
Anniversary bundle?
I like playing with a PS5 controller and Steam gets in the way a bit
collection of sorts
Yeah that is true
You should try epic games they have lots of games with controller options
I bind the buttons on the PS5 controller using an external software and Steam has its own set of bindings
Oh yeah I go off of steam bidnings
every game releasing these days has full Playstation controller support so it's all good
Yeah
I have a Series X controller also
but the PS5 controller has more features
plus my friend gifted it to me
Cus batteries in a controller is absolute dogshit
AA batteries for wireless, but I have a 3m long cable so I don't have to use batteries
Oh you just USB it
ensures full compatibility and low input delay
Yeah makes sense
buying AA batteries are also kinda wasteful
I USB my ps5 controller
But that'd because i don't know how to wireless connect it to my pc
if you use it wirelessly the games wont recognize it
best you stick to wired unless you were absolutely too far away
(because sony cant be bothered to make official drivers for it)
whenever there's a newbie to pc gaming I would only recommend xbox controller
it's PC's official controller afterall
Ps controllers aren't too complicated
yeah they arent
I've used ps controllers for 5+ years on PC and it can be a hassle sometimes
It's only pcs controller because Microsoft owns xbox
no big deal still
it's also because xinput is the primary input method for most games
I've only been doing it for like 8 months
so if you use ps controlelr sometimes it wouldnt even have ps buttons
I am "bilinigual" with controllers, so I can use ps controller with xbox on-screen prompts no problem
others might get confused if they arent familiar
I use to play with Xbox controllers sometimes but I doubt I could use it now
I can use the switch joysticks tho
Doesn't really help at all
Yeah I can use a pro controller
That's why I eventually switched to pro
My buddy still uses joysticks after 4 or 5 years
having the choice of controller is nice, helps spice up the gaming experience
Oh yeah def
Lol
but the buttons are nice and clicky
Hehe
anyways
im gonna guess there wont be ocean map
when when when is season 6 😮 😮 😮
im not going to be excited
The least they could do is use airboats for naval combat
and bring back missing game modes
brutal expectations
or ground assault
give ME something different for once
I am bored with repeating 3 game modes
what game mode do you like to see
arent those bf4 gamemodes?
i only play rush and conquest on bf4 ;p
a shame servers nowadays dont hose other modes
which is why WR is here for the rescue
what does it take to host server?
atm, paying a fee
but soon
WR will make it free
no dedicated servers?
you either pay a server or not
thats it
if you need to host
I recommend waiting on WR
I could host server, depending on the requirements soon. :p
as ong its a relatively modern CPU
and 4 cores minimum
oh thats easy lol
bots?
and mods to balance the gameplay
When does WR come out
Soon ™️
season six will arrive in October
still looking for heli driver
I hope they will add some more attachments for the bf4 weapons they added
they do add new content
since when
there are new maps and weapons
since around like
we've known that, for months
there's also a new vehicle
i mean we dont have boats in bf2042? so xd
there are boats, it's in portal
Heey deco :p
it's just not used in any of the main playlist maps
another salvation for this game
is to revive portal
then again
doubts and doubts
portal is not coming back and shouldn't do either
was a nice idea but in reality a dead concept
and I will not be surprised the game will still be stale and repetitive by the end of the support
$20 wasted
well every game is repetitive..
hell, even I find V somewhat enjoyable
and older BF felt exciting and fun
only problem is you can't play 5 nowadays
I like modern war
if BF games from BC1 to V had offline mode with AI bots
it would do nothing
lol
AI bots didn't exist in the franchise until battlefield 1
and even then they were just prototypes
you're aware 2142 was the last BF game to include solo mode with bots
offline mode with bots? who plays that haha
I am a pve person, not pvp
they are not AI bots
they were made by SEED
and they were first prototyped in battlefield 1
who the heck was SEED
what, a sub company for DICE or something
no it's not a sub company
SEED is a division within EA who exist to invent new infrastructure for games
Heh seed
I think he means the bots have brains 😛
they use neural network data from players to simulate player movement in a game
and then BF1 was never funded for this
They’re gonna seed all over battlefield 
disappointing
normal bots were just following a path brain dead, while AI stops and hides? :p
you mean it went unused
campaign?
no?
then where did it exist in the game
Battlefield 1 has bots in development at SEED. They're testing self learning artificial intelligence. The implications of this are huge for bots but also much more like QA and Data gathering. Leave a LIKE and a comment, thanks for watching. Join my Discord: http://www.discord.gg/jackfrags Connect with me:
doesn't fortnite have AI bots now too?
im guessing they cannot be inserted into a server
didnt bother to watch the whole thing, so summarize it
you didn't bother to watch 5 minutes clearly either
i like how the AI is looking through walls at 2min xd
the ones in 1 were in their extreme infancy
Mhm
im just gonna say nobody can utilize the bot system in their own servers
as in very extreme infancy
it was the first mainline game that was used for having data be read for
it continued with 5, then it was fielded fully in 2042
Yup
and they basically beat the average bf player
fully developed my ass.
I played portal with BC2 bots
which is sad
more or less
I don't know if the AI is already implented, but the bots are very easy and react super slow 😛
im not impressed
you know there's a thing called being intentionally made worse right
lol
even I find BF3 bots somewhat better than 2042
that's just dumb to say
they can kill you quickly than 2042 bots
the bots in 3 walk into walls and can't even engage combat properly
the mod using linear path with nodes
its an extreme limitation
had it used nav mesh or some kind
there wouldnt be these problems
I don't think you've played this game all too often, pretty clear, but the bots at the very beginning, were death machines
and they were intentionally nerfed
Yes
fucking shit
Nerfed too much
lol
they cant deploy bags and revive you
they def can
a broken clock is right twice a day
they delete vehicles
Is it really
I was mowing down them down out in the open
Damn
wait are you talking about battlefield 2042 bots not using RPGS?
I was playing BC2 era
since a clock is read in 24 hours but is read in 12, there's a minimum of two chances it reads correctly per day (assuming it's still ticking)
Hm
I know I speculated this before
That makes sense actually
but I believe BC2 and BF3 bots are underdeveloped
Well no shit that was like years ago
wow imagine a game released over a decade ago being underdeveloped
such a revelation
starfield bots are underdeveloped too xd
I rather not play 2042 bots
don't play it then
because of stupid specialists

being in here for 20 minutes about it doesn't change you're not forced to play it

I'm looking for experienced TDM players to squad up with on PS5 ..I play TDM and sometimes I do have cross-play on,,I play on Eastern Time (USA)
2042 is a mess.
bf3 modding scene is just acceptable
and now, BF4 will soon take the crown
you're not some divine person saying this lol
we've heard this recycled over 200 times
it's boring, say something new
pretty sure the 2042 bots use the traditional classes
bf4 released terrible, so did bf2042.. WE SHALL RAISE
^
that does not make it the same for players
but something something let me fake history lol
it speaks a lot that it took an entire modding framework to have battlefield 3 be enjoyable to play
different is... BF4 atmosphere and AOD were phenomemal
2042 had little of it
Currently, i like bf2042 more than bf4.
you think battlefield 4 the game where it didn't have 45hz servers and you couldn't finish a game without disconnecting or crashing for a year had an atmosphere?
that's your feeling, others have different feelings. :p
you actually think that?
I swear this playerbase are the most revisionist playerbase of all time
bf4 was perfect
not even halo copium enjoyers are this bad

but yeah bf4 had terrible servers constant kicks and even unplayable for months
I never been kicked buy a bug
then you haven't played on release. 😅
not played 2042 for a lot clearly and has barely touched 4 either
and did the game age well? Id say so
standard battlefield complainer
2042 was less bad than bf4, just not enough content
remove the specialisist, add more game modes that featured in previous games
this guy came out from the battlefield group on facebook
but keep acting as some authority on good games for the franchise
Yeah like deco said your just repeating like what bf 4 is
we're done here
There's a battlefield group on facebook
Llol
full of bots saying the repetitive bullshit over 2 years
Nice

amazing that people still use facebook
Was thinking the same thing
!!when we getting Facebook 2
Soon™

whats FB?
Lol
the entitlement of this playerbase thinking they have a right to criticise a game and recommend another when they played a decade old game for, a year, is astounding
Aka old people app
I was just joking lol, people still use that? 😂
It's actually better than "x" at this point
as for twitter, I still have it for following artists and, again, shit posting account
Well, i don't use social media that often.. once in a few days
you'd be surprised facebook is still on top 5
To be fair. That’s everything anymore really.
I'm not on any social media
our age gap just doesn't find facebook, well, soothing
Just can't stand all the negativity on social media.. depressing.
not wrong
why are you surprised
Surprised where?
I said social media is depressing when you scroll through feeds there's always someone with negativity..
main reason i don't use it that often 😛
I usually ignore those content
This is why I don't have any social media accounts
I can't even sit on my phone for hours scrolling.. it's so not social.
now anyways
Should I use the lcmg or the avancy a
Lcmg better for range
Avancys better up close
Imo
Why would you ask that
Just use what u want
lowkey im a control freak so i have better handling with the avancys
but im pretty sure the lcmg is better for dps
That'd be like if they put an underbarrel grenade launcher on a sniper rifle.
oh wait
Also funny when you consider the Masterkey is unironically one of the best shotgun options.
What gun isn't?
Hello
oop
Am I the only one who’s too addicted to multiplayer games to bring themself to play single player games anymore lol
Like I want to but I’d rather be grinding a multiplayer game😂
Lotus Land Story is a great SP game
Singleplayer games can be played anytime
There’s a shit load of great SP games I just can’t bring themself to play them over battlefield 😂 or whatever game I’m on at the time
So unless you finish grinding your MP game, you shouldn't touch an SP game
It’s definitely a mild addiction but fuck it
Can’t play Witcher 3 too focused on tier 1 camos 🤣
MP definitely ruined SP for me
Low key I think im going through that too now
In the past I managed to play both just fine
But now MP fiendish addiction has taken over
Also known as
League of legend syndrome
But I don’t play league
God help me if i did
Maybe you found that you prefer MP games
Definitely do yea
You wouldn't be here if you weren't
I just have a love for some sp games at heart and sometimes wanna experience them more but
Tier 1 doesn’t get itself son
And to be clear I’m not putting off playing them
I’ll load them up and start playing
But just want to get back to MP so
Do you also feel like singleplayers are one-and-done games?
Finish story + dlc, uninstall immediately
Depends on the game for me
Finish cod campaign - uninstall
Also
One play and delete
Hazard zone and portal replaced it
😭
Or one of the two did
guys every time bf 2042 give me problem with ping.. others game i go with 5 of ping ( mi wifi is a 2.5Gb/s)
I tried to fix with dns, and in the first time they works but after 1 hour the ping continue to have problems
I heard hazard zone was originally going to be the concept of 2042
it could've been 100% battle royale

try removing the power cable to your wifi and router etc. for 5 minutes
the cheesiest cheese ever cheesed
my running outside to see where you are

🧀
Made it to mastery 35 with the K30
still looking for heli driver on BF2042 add Yuumellow on EA
i would look for a pilot
I would hold out for a pilot 'til the end of the night
this shit more rare than diamond
He's gotta be skilled, and he's gotta be quick
And he's gotta be back from a dogfight"
What do you need a pilot for anyway. Nobody flying heli's in lobbies?
I remember those days when they released those shitty animated videos
having a good gunner is more rare 
Wonder what happened to them
they dont answer when I ask to help them with heals/gunner
i write messages in every game ive tried for 2 days
Huh
i dont like jets and prefer gunner than pilots on helis
Sometimes if i see a good pilot in my team and he has a free slot i just jump in and repair
What’s wrong with jets?
you cant join 2 seats helis if hes not in your squad though
thats good tbh
So you just wanna be a heli gunner

why wont battlefield 2042 open
We got another one
ChatGPT's reply to <#battlefield-2042 message>:
There could be several reasons why Battlefield 2042 is not opening. Here are a few troubleshooting steps you can try:
- Make sure your computer meets the minimum system requirements for the game.
- Verify that your graphics drivers are up to date.
- Restart your computer and try launching the game again.
- If you have any overlay software (such as Discord overlay or GeForce Experience overlay), try disabling them.
- Disable any antivirus or firewall programs temporarily and see if the game starts.
- Try repairing the game files. If you're using Origin, right-click on Battlefield 2042 in your game library, select "Repair" or "Check for Updates," and follow the prompts.
- If none of the above steps work, consider uninstalling and reinstalling the game.
If these steps do not work, you may need to contact EA Support for further assistance. They can be reached at https://help.ea.com.
do you just wanna level up the heli mastery as gunner or what 
then you are going to have a hard time on PC in general 
nuh uhhhhhhh im on laptop
laptops are pcs
ok thanks ELECTRONIC ARTS is now opening
Honestly with all the issues PC has generally speaking I’m kinda happy to be a console player
I can play Fallout New Vegas without having to download mods in order to make sure it works
i was able to play new vegas without mods 
conquest
Please quit your preaching, it's as annoying as PC snobs telling you how much better their PCs are
I never had an issue launching 2042 or any other game for that matter.
So for me PC is a perfect experience.

Generally speaking, while this is the case for most systems it is nice to not have to completely restart some systems just to play a game
And while consoles aren’t infallible either they are more consistent
Dreyfuss, shut the fuck up.
No
You clearly have no idea what you are talking about.
No but I said it with confidence and that’s what matters
You talk down on others because they have problems to solve. You are the least helpful person here.
Yeah I mean, keep telling us about how your console is so much better.
Totally isn't annoying.
Or unhelpful.
damn toxic af 
Dude you need to realize that 10 minutes ago I already realized I was wrong and now I totally exist just to piss you off
I got a headshot with airplane MGs on BF1
Why wouldn't it be possible 
Well i would imagine it’s possible it’s just that the icon of a soldier is so big it obscures the actual target so you’re just blindly shooting
Not impossible, just hard to get
I’ve done it before in BFV and 2042 but BF1 it is rather difficult
Good good
Some problem with EA PLay?
killing pilots but not the plane itself happened quite a few times in bfv 
Only EA official?

rolls to couch

you know what time it is

For me it was every time I flew a P-51 I would shoot the pilot out of the 109
Now I have shot pilots out of their planes with sniper rifles in BF1
killing pilots with the tank hunter attack plane was also fun 
Like twice
but why 
Is BF2042 server down or something?
With a piece of shit Mosin nagant
sadly the pilot hitboxes are very weird in bf1, Ravic tested them iirc
They are
i think i only got 2 pilot snipes
But the 6x HMGs on the P51D don’t seem to care
imagine wearing crocs outside
imagine 

🐊
it's almost over
Those 18 kills will be the hardest of your life
I keep trying to give this game a chance and every time i do, the conclusion always is that its kinda shit, it just aint it
you are right
Ive played the life out of BF games since bad company 2 and 2042 just doesn't sit right with me regardless of how many times i try it
understandable
Also, as a tank main from bf4, this game absolutely offends me
I would never expect tanks to be this shit
One drawback to finally finishing every SMG is now I have to get used to using the AC42
skill issue tbh
Theres a character in this game with a fucking TV guided missile
So what? The damage ain‘t that good against tanks
Its plenty when you can't counter it because the person shooting can be miles away behind cover
Not to mention pretty much every class gets some form of AT
The whole operator thing is fucking stupid imo, it was never needed in a bf game, and still isn't
It's 3 years after.. people need to get over it
No, this is a battlefield game, not rainbow six siege
and you should still get over it lol
No
vehicles are both OP and UP in 2042
truly the worst of both worlds
the operators are also bad from a design perspective because a filled gadget slot really kills your customisability
They're OP until the enemy team notices you and then everything on the map targets you
And that, combined with too much overall utility
which is why only 2 operators in the whole game have access to proper launchers and both their dedicated operator gadgets are shit
all infantry ranged AT is bad and irish APS counters literally all of it
on the other hand, a single person with c5 instakills any vehicle if they get close enough
leads to vehicles camping with 0 counter because they will absolutely always die if they push
Individually they can feel bad, but it doesn't matter when almost every infantry has something to damage you with

It takes like 3 dudes with AT launchers to start overwhelming you
none of them have the range to do it outside of engie with launchers unless you're too close (by 2042 standards, not reasonable game standards)
Yeah by 2042 standards you either camp and farm kills or fucking die
boris and crawford are the only ones with access to dumbfire launchers and their damage is low combined with awful reload speeds and low rocket capacity (and dogshit operator gadgets)
lis gets basically guaranteed damage but its very low and she only gets 2 rockets with insanely long regen time so she feels both bad to play against and bad to use
its truly the worst of both worlds
it's literally faster to suicide as lis after using both rockets if you're dedicated tank hunting
this is objectively bad game design
Summary of 2042 overall
id agree with that tbh
Also, and this is controversial, i perfer the hitscan esk gunplay of BF4, in 2042 trying to shoot someone on the move feels like shooting at neo

Not go mention the squishy feeling, obnoxiously fat tracers
2042 gunplay was ass in the beta and ass for most of release and still ass after the AR changes
Yes
they can't decide what they want and they can't balance it properly because 128p exists with ludicrous map sizes
Also, the annoying af gun accuracy, like how tf do you miss even when controlling recoil
same reason vehicles are fucked
Aight so I've got every SMG to T1 now. The AC-42 is next.
people hated the random spread from bf1 and hated the spread to recoil of bfv so they just removed spread and hrec entirely in 2042
full autoing people at 100m is sickening
You actually manage that?
Because it felt much easier in BF4 imo, in a good way
it happens a lot less now that they cunked the ARs but it was an issue before and it still happens too much for my liking
now the guns just dont feel consistent
Yea that's a lot of the issue.
Yea this
I'd rather them be difficult to control but consistent than to make it easy part-time in some arbitrary fashion
I felt like the P90 and AC9 were very inconsistent.
What pisses me off the most is the hitreg
both bf1 spread and bfv spread to recoil were better than this
I'm enjoying the AC9 more than I did.
hitreg takes a massive dive because 128p servers
It strangely hits like a fucking truck at range too? Its weird.
Like, if my crosshair is on someone, and im shooting them at close range, they should be consistently dying
AC9 ADS is just garbage. It's good in CQB hipfire scenarios if you equip it right but it sometimes just feels less accurate when aiming.
even on the 64p servers i swear to god its not as consistent as older games
I'm not gonna say much since i'm a console player but i have actively shat on people with it at range ;v;
I've sometimes managed to get it dealt at range but for the most part I just get wrecked.
This games hipfire is wack. You need to "Lead" your fucking hipfire to hit them.
If you move right, you have to aim right too. Its awful.
it's a bullet hose so it's got damage drop
bfv had so so so so much nicer hipfire
it hurts me literally every time i play
i dont see the point in hipfiring when ADS takes about 0.1 seconds and hipfire is so inconsistent even with laser sight on smgs
Itll lose to an ACR or a AR at range if they can aim. Because you do lose damage and you do need to tap burst basically.
But you can still win
bfv hipfire was godlike
The headshot multi is another issue with AC9.
idk - I've had better gunfights with hipfire on AC9 a lot of times. It's bizarre.
Headshot multi is an issue overall
Theres like no reason to use SMGs lmao
smg dogshit headshot multi is painful
this is what happens when you make soflam/laser designation dogshit too
Especially with how inconsistent guns are
Meanwhile the K30 is clearly better to aim when using it.
soflam is worthless in 2042
lis cant lock on to it so thats 50% of all engie players gone automatically
Good thing I already got it to T1 xD
Theres people on last gen who think SMGs dont need a higher HSM and i'm like
"Most of you guys cant even hit a target moving, what the fuck?"
half the boris players arent using a rocket launcher
the crawford players with rockets try to lock on to soflam and then the vehicle just smokes
or flares
fucking heli flares
Too be fair, as a current Boris player (trying to T1 him) i cant use rockets when no one drops ammo
SMGs have been overpowered since bf5 tho
there's literally no reason to use engie if you're not using rockets
Not so sure about that. In CQB scenarios on certain TDM maps, most certainly.
In this game they can be balanced by the fact that most maps are so open that they simply lose to ARs.
But on maps with wide open areas where players can spot you from over 100m - yeah that.
the only really good smg is the PBX and thats because it has literally bugged close combat ammo
Man, BT 128p has so many tickets my last game lasted 1h and 45min to end.
Just redeploy as soon as you are out of rockets 
doubles your minimum btk range
Faster ttk than other guns in close and mid range, but the reason isn't really that theyre so powerful, rather that other guns are just shit at range
this is an issue with projectiles being way to slow
Like i said, the countless scenarios of spraying someone and your shots just not connecting
even if you immediately relock a heli who just used flares, the rockets are slower then regen time
and forget doing that on jets
no, bf2042 flares are the same as ecm in bf4
Someone made some stat notes on the guns in BF2042 and apparently there's a 2 way tie for 2nd fastest TTK - PBX-45 CC ammo with any barrel except extended and 6KU suppressor, and the AM40 with standard ammo and any barrel except 6KU suppressor.
2042 flares are ecm AND flares
the problem isn't countermeasures, it's the projectile speeds to punish bad countermeasures
Yeah the hipfire needs consistency checks. Like my PKP has more consistent fucking hipfire than most of my SMGs.
Well, that's a lie. Any gun that can 1HK has obviously the lowest TTK
there are no bad countermeasures on helis with their agility and regen speed
So by that vein the NTW-50 has the fastest TTK
pbx has 20m 4btk range, am40 only has 10m
that extra 10m makes a lot of difference
But at the same time, AM40 has a higher HSM.
Yea ig
Please DICE, need SOFLAM points
its also why cc ammo is broken on pbx because its not supposed to have 20m 4btk range
But I remember adoring the AM40 once I unlocked the standard ammo.
So that range can be increased by simply hitting headshots
even if SOFLAM does get points, mechanically it's useless
even in bf4 people rarely laser, and bf4 has insanely good laser mechanics and points (minus if you lose lock)
am40 has really weirdly fast reload speed
like the 2nd fastest in the game or something
and tbh for some reason I never used the CC ammo on the PBX to get the T1
Well, I did, but I usually used the standard ammo instead.
I'm surprised its not longer, but at the same time its not the first time ive seen a high rof weapon having good reload speed
bf2042 lasing has a lack of air guidence top down attacks making it useless against ground armor and slow projectile speed that makes it useless against air vehicles
cause the game doesnt tell you damage values so no one actually knows the cc ammo is good
translation: any vehicle ever
True
Like the GD7F in Planetside has a similar reload speed IIRC.
pbx cc ammo is the only cc ammo in the entire game that increases minimum btk range
I would give my left nut for dice to remover armor plates from the game. But they will never do it cause they need to protect little johnny.. otherwise little johnny will complain to mommy that he is dying too much in bf
it's got longer range than the high power
But plates are like.. Such a non issue atm?
Btk?
bullets to kill
Like a headshot completely destroys them
Another oddity, if Sorrow's stat sheet is to be believed, the SVK has the same TTK with all barrels except the 6KU suppressor.
Plates dont bother me
A plate only adds 20 Temporary HP
But only if you use standard ammo.
You do headshots 100% of the time?
svk standard ammo is best by miles
It really is
I dont know my average but I have a 21% average. I rarely die to plates
It makes a fun battle rifle on standard mags
Average acc not headshot acc*
According to said stat sheet you can use the long barrel without a RoF penalty
Ah I have a fucking 25% HSR.
svk probably top 3 guns
SVK was always a solid option in the game.
It's enough for them not dying and kill you specially if you are already half health.. armor plates is one of the stupidest shit in the game and only exists to protect little Johnnys.... not to be a protection for assault people that will rush points as the tip of the spear like dice devs tried to feed us that lame excuse
Even in the early days when most of the other guns were unusable
Also, of all the changes since bf4, the one that annoys mr the most are the bipods
They worked fine in bf4, why ruin it
BF4 bipods were clunky as fuck
slow rof means it suffers the least from bad hitreg, massive mag size, incredibly long 2hk range, really fast ttk, gets to have UBGL
Super picky about placement
They should have made them work like they do in BF1 tbh
It doesnt really help with assaulting, as someone who T1'd plates. Its chip damage protection. And a VERY SLIGHT edge over opponents who cant aim in CQQ or Med+
plates barely matter in 2042 when hitreg is this bad lel
Kay.
and they should make it so it's ready to deploy by default instead of having to constantly press X to see if the damned bipod is even usable.
As an Assault I’m addicted to the SPH launcher
Not really, once down they were perfect
In bf5 theyre shit, constantly failing
I'd take someone using plates over SPH
I'm not saying you're bad, I am just saying from my own experience that Plates really dont offer too much of a difference that their advantage is almost placebo.
In 2042 they feel like a passive buff rather than an attachment
bipod has been shit in all BF games
Yeah, rather than the 10-15s spent messing with it to delpoy right
its never deployed consistently
Skill issue imo
Bipod is fun on some guns and really helps but its not perfect
Like it might take ONE more bullet to kill a plated player with bodyshots.
Keyword: MIGHT.
it's ovar
Its joever
because you could lie on your back and put bipod on your chest
I'd do that IRL
backprone in bfv was a nightmare
I still lowkey hate prone as a mechanic
Thryre just as picky about placement in bf5, exactly now they can toggle off by themselves
Try it with the XCE now
Great feature when you're trying to track a target
I'm trying to work my way down, so I'll do it after the DXR which is currently about halfway done
bipod being able to be turned off in 2042 is so fucking dumb
wdym
like being able to fold it in, or swap attachments ?
i hate the bipod in 2042 its so useless
makes aiming so much worse
then it doesnt even add much value when youre actually posted up with it
game already has fuck all recoil
it isnt needed like it was in previous games
Should I use the rm68 or m5a3
What about the acw r
Should I use the am40 over it?
Oh ok
The ACR and RM68 are meta, the RM68 is better in a way since it hits hard at range and has painfully easy recoil and has canted sights by default and is permanently silenced.
You just need BSV mate
Bag is hard to grind for
M5 is good, slap on shortened barrel.
Heres a weird idea use what looks cool
I just need something beginner
M5 is fine tbh
That's the ghostmaker r10 or dm7
Yeah just use guns that feel comfortable
DM7 slaps
ak12 and m5 are both really good beginner guns
M5 is the best for scrubs
Forgot to answer, the SFAR is basically the original RM68. Little recoil, hits like a fucking truck at range. And has underbarrel nades.
M5 AK are both great guns. I'd say use them first to get a feel for the guns. And maybe work down the list.
But the meta ARs are: RM68, ACR, SFAR. Honorable mentions to AC42, M416, MTAR, GEW and AEK.
Which M416 used to be dogshit now its surprisingly really good.
Better than the M16 now IMO
Acwr or Acr?
ACW yeah
Lots of guns lots of names to remember, too much for my old ass to remember ;v;
Hello chat
Hoi!
Because we're cool? ;v;
I couldn't decide which battlefield to install
