But feels fine


"Fixed an issue that allowed the Recon Drone's thermal sight to see enemies through smoke."
now imma chill a bit since I'm done with 1st week real quick
Time to try the Casper drone.
isnt that how thermal works
Going to pester tanks with EMP damage.
no the thermals in game produce hot smoke
Thermal isnt supposed to see through player-thrown smokes for balance purposes
'"Increased the cooldown for the Recon Drone's EMP by 5 seconds"
thermal in this game isn't anti fun so no
New EMP > Old EMP
..... FIVE?!?
Yeah, five.
How much damage does the EMP do?
uhhh get good uuhhh stop camping at the back of the fucking map casper main uuhhh
Since the EMP effect is 'stronger' now
it applies damage states, not physical damage
It's still good to take out a shootdown system from behind a wall though
I'll wait till vehicles stop camping first before I stop camping with my drone.
It's the cart before the horse situation.
no, thermals do not see through smoke intentionally as a balance decision
they can see through environment smoke
Why can't I play...
Inadvertently earned that badge that needs twelve melee kills in a match and five in a life because I went ham with Dozer
I've gotten good at hearing footsteps in the side corridors
They never expect their flank to be flanked
If you're playing on Steam, you might need to uninstall the EA App
I reinstalled
Uninstalled and then reinstalled
And is it just me or have they added some force to the ragdolls after shield kills
@robust vapor bt on the new map is wack
What should I do
especially when your team doesnt want to push
Team issue
even the ai playing better than these fucks bro
I just get past some players as Dozer with smokes
breakthrough on any map is ass if ur team does not push
yeah my squad made it past to the point but no one was pushing
Then camp until my squadmates respawn on me
the whole point of the mode is to push / defend
on this map its worse bc its so small and everyone is chucking nades
ai got tuned lmfao
fun...
Download Error? uh?
Team doesn’t want to push , please use Exit key
If team no push you push
less chances for flanks its mostly just straight brute force to make a opening
Mate I did whatever you said and I can't start the game
me using M60
That’s stupid idea dok
oof
sometimes you just gotta push
@arctic grove reinstalling the game will not fix your problem, it is separate to the game, physically remove the EA app and boot it
take the team on your back and go for it
you delete EA App and start on steam again#
1⃣ Visit the EA App "Hamburger" Menu Icon.
2⃣ Highlight Help
3⃣ Select "App Recovery"
4⃣ Reloading the EA App and Steam may be required.
Having a Dozer in the new map is damn beneficial
Imagine pre-S6 Dozer in the new map with no flaws.
now everytime I press on play, nothing is happening

He's really not that different
Just a tiny bit slower
What did they change with dozer
I still think lunging is a common Dozer behavior.
Never played dozer anyways
is the server clogged or something.....what's with the download error lol
Did and still doesn't work
Just a tiny bit slower than he was with the shield out.
Slower move speed, slower rotation speed
They nerfed Dozer's movement and pivoting across the board.
I miss when angel gave shield
lol predictable
And he takes damage from direct hits and flinches.
Idk then thats what they said
**from vehicles/heavy weapons
Good enough.


Which doesn't change much
What's considered a heavy weapon to Dozer?
GROSS
Angel was the best specialist when he used to give shield
see the notes didnt say that and i was getting worried lol
My EA app won't download the update hooray
Same things as anything else
LMG?
Uninstalling again
12g auto used to be the best gun
Snipers?
RPGs probs
Grenades make sense.
Ye.
Clearing the Cache doesn't do jack squibs
hmm i wonder if the 12.7mm guns count
Clearing the cache doesn't do anything
That I don't know
same 😦
not wrong
Download error. Reinstalled EAapp...download error. Rebooted whatever I could...download error.
anyone know why steam keeps asking to verify my files time and time again when trying to play?
my steam keeps validating. what is the prob?
Season 6 is not for people (like us) who paid 59$ or 15$ on steam and got ea app
uninstall the EA app, and boot the game
check pins
Please use pin message on your top right corner thank you
for those wondering the EA app is having server issues right now
I have EAapp only..I don't use steam for battlefields :F
isnt just 2042
So I did the cache thing but my game still isn't starting
This doesn't seem very consumer friendly approach by EA
still not working
Maybe it's the administrator shit but before the update it could still launch even if I didn't put in administrator
It just never loads
I downloaded about 40 percent. Set the computer on Sleep. An hour later I restarted the download, and now only error's
Maybe my game being on a HDD has something but I highly doubt that
assuming the EA app is uninstalled, click that, it will install itself after
Nothing new I guess.
Maybe it is on the EA-servers the problem is? And they have to fix it on that side?
the EA app (client) is having issues currently yes
Same here
So the problem is happening to other games as well?
Haha lame I was so excited to play
Anybody have black screen after match problem?
is the game not running on steam for anyone else as well?
Where is the patch notes
welp fuck ea
I have the same issue as well. Seems to be some sort of EA problem
I expect a fix today
Better be
I can’t play bc I work and have class all day today :/
May be too late
on steam
its repeating on validating files
validated 947 files and waste time still cant open the game
I wanna experience these balance changes
which bp did u buy guys fast or normal bp ?
we cant even open the game
am confused as i have 2850 coins and i dont buy anything from store at all
Here I was hoping to play the new update but EA App is having issues and it is not just me. Guess I will go play another FPS for now. EA fix your app please...
Woah ,
So you launch it, it starts running, then it goes back and doesn't launch it
yes
hmmm ok
Same
game does not open
The ea fix did jack shit
This happens to me all the time, I just keep launching until it "sticks" LMAO
aight
will do that was thinking about the fast 1 , cuz i dont buy aything from store at all ,and i have 2850 coins @robust vapor but u motivated me for 1000
am afraid cant finish bp thats it
i leave early from work and this happens......
I mean what else do you need from the shop
same ^^
Some of the stuffs in the premium BP are LIT this season
nth
LMAO BF2042 WONT UPATE
so far you don't need anything else
y u didnt buy the fast 1 ?
skip 20 tier
no need for it
I can already finish it
Before the season ends
EA SERVERS DOWN
HAHAHA
Don't have time for this. Gonna play something else.
cuz they sasid this season is capped xp or slow in xp something like this
buy
there's the issue
bf2042 proven ea is garbage again
glad to see im not the only person having this issue lol
Dogshit servers
was just bouta ask about it
play gta online for orginal experience
wdym ? am confused asf xD 😦
as bf2042 is gta o ripoff
so this guys a moron
gamers when there's a slight inconvenience
what issue xp issue ?
Not gonna pay for it if I can get it for free in a few hours of fun gameplay
Gamers when they run into any minor issue
tell me why this never happened to gta online
And get a more boring shit experience, nah fuck GTA online. Rockstar eat shit
GTA online LMAO
Trust me, it has.
Most braindead user in discord
gamers when a update that doesnt add anything weights 5gb and doesnt even download
🤡
used to take me 20 minutes to get into a lobby
aha makes sense , i was just cuz not all time i will be able to play bf , so was afraid season ends and i dont finish it
bf 2042 on steam won't open
Does a window open for bf2042 and then shortly close?
Just play every time you got an opportunity to
Oh it 100% has
no only ea
My character in GTA Online is level 800 something, I can tell you that these problems have occurred on that game lmao
gta online literally nerfs every method of getting cash
oh alright then idk.
bf2042 wont work guys. bf2042 finally got shut down by gta online rockstar copyright claim
I have a T1 badge for every season, I'll manage 😛
GTA 4 multiplayer better than GTA online
they literally just nerfed cayo idk wtf you guys are on about 
i think i will not buy it and will keep leveling it till i end then buy unless the 20% xp boost make diff
(most likely)
LMAO
Bro is coping
I can't play GTA V at all, the Rockstar Launcher doesn't work even if I fully remove the game files from my computer and reinstall it
oho am newbie , i got the game free from here challange i won , and was on s4 😄
For the 3 new weapons you don't need to buy the level skip
it does work. you prob have drivers issue, or gpu too new such as rtx 30 series or 40
But for skins yeah
rtx 30 and 40 are generally very glitchy
ah , is the 20% boost worth
i mean is there a diff
anyone else not even able to start the update in the EA app?
It's worth if you keep playing
Fulfill all the ribbons in game
Same here
Do good and you'll get more EXP
guys who have issues there is nividia update too just released rn
xp isnt even registering half the time lmfao
OK SIR COMMRADE SALUTE
xD i think will finish it
at least its not just me. It just keeps saying "theres a problem with your download"
How do we even report the download issue?
expert dice trickery making it so xp doesnt register the first day so you buy the fast pass huh
correct
THERE IT IS
is this season 1 more week than others @robust vapor ? ?
**Welp, the EA App is currently broken as the game refuses to download the Update. Guess it will be fixed tomorrow or something. **
idk what yall talking about it works fine for me yall just gotta get good
Ye, its just slight inconvenience as butt lickers here say xDD
30 series isn’t new anymore
Other EA-games work downloading. Only BF2042 that I have the problem.
Does this include any administrator action
Task Manager -> end all EA and Steam apps
yes
Maybe try without it
Cant even go past 1% download on EA App
Same. Can confirm my other games through Steam that launch the EA App all work fine. Only issue is with BF2042
Why should we go this far to play the fucking game
One factor: New anti-cheat
Tried, doesn't work for me, same issue. When I start the game, there's a blank pop-up EA app window that disappears and the game doesn't launch. Every new season it's the same crap, it's laughable they can't handle a little more traffic than usual.
EA may launch the game first and then close it
Yup, exactly what I'm experiencing after doing all of the "fixes"
I'll just relaunch the game twice or thrice
NEW SEASON NEW DICE TRICKERY
And wait
Have you ever played a game before ? lol. This isn ot just an EA thing. This happened ALL the time with games. Yet some of yall here acting like this is the end of the world and new insert first time gif
Spamming launch will just screw up the loading process
ima be real im being overtly dramatic cause bored and afk grinding xp
^^
whataboutism will fix it for sure
Not true. I've never had a game just fail to launch on a release/content drop. I have dealth with long queue times that effectively meant I couldn't play other games
This should never be this fucking complex, all I needed was to press launch and play
maybe it's not the right time to play xd
Ye, never happened to cod/warzone either with a new season
None of this files BULLSHIT
This happens with so many freaking games, Christ New World was bricking PCs on lauch 1st day
Ye ye, butt lick much plz

It's should be press launch and play, that's all,
my RX6700XT Pulse just arrived 🎉🎉🎉
you forgot about the the boys update that caused pc players to lose like half their original fps
pog
Or the CoD update which caused peoples graphics cards to lock up and become useless
At least they could play
wth is this, reinstalled the game, reinstalled ea app, clear cache, opened the game 5 times, allowed on firewall, validated game files, tried 10 times to open still won't open the dang game
U cant even get 1% download here on this trash ea app
thats arguably as bad as not being able to play
They cant handle the traffic of 5k people playing right now
like play another game while this shit gets fixed
XD
Restarting, clearing cache, verified files, HOW MUCH MORE UNTIL I CAN PLAY THE FUCKING GAME
Imagine what would happen if like 100k players play this on daily basis
Has anyone tried uninstalling the entire game and reinstalling?
Do you get the same error in ea app?
Those chinese server would explode
i did, should i reinstall windows too? or buy a new pc ?
We can't brother
Just wait till tomorrow as others say
we can't
I cleared the cache TWO FUCKING TIMES AND NOTHING
You might want to do all of the above and then start over by developing the game yourself at the DICE HQ
have you tried this?
I did that 2 fucking times
I already noticed EA launcher, I noticed the game on Steam, nothing
oof
Nothing you do will fix this. Do not reinstall/Repair etc
I restarted the app
even if i do that the game won't start
At this point, it is best to just wait and see what the Dev's say. Surely we will be getting some kind of announcement soon. EA App is clearly having issues, STEAM is also having issues. Maybe it will be fixed by tomorrow or in a few days. Might as well just go play another game title for now.
I restarted the pc
Its just a case of waiting
I verified the files
Thats what happens when u hire incompetent people and use chinese 1$ servers for online game
guys can't do a recent update
Still fucking nothing
What the problem here?
All my hits with the Shorty shotgun tonight were kills. I wonder if they've rebalanced the pump actions again
Will have to test the 880
Don't bother reinstalling or cache recovery, they won't do anything to resolve the download error. I assume some people have already tried including myself.
Game works, XP still counts?
doesnt work i tried 3 times
@short nest already did that
nope
Game does not work. Download Error no matter what you try to do to fix it.
same. its servers issue
Is Windows Man online?
noone it works for
Already a sleuth of bugs people are experiencing
What happened?
Revive icons not appearing on Redacted when players downed in any foliage
Clicking to spawn on a vehicle not working, just closes vehicle menu
All over Twitter
Fuck lol
Seems I got myself a game that has an even harder time booting up than before. Well that is exciting.
try this
Yeah, the Matchmaking taking longer than usual for me as well...
another negative gaming experience
rip, game is broken
I don't think you guys can do much other than waiting. They just can't admit they are having server issues. We had the exact same issue last season's launch and it got fixed in the background slowly within a few days. My only concern is that there's going to be a free weekend in 2 days so it might get even worse...
See you in a week I guess.
I was so stoked
Not even for the map, just the balance changes
Fuck meat grinders lol
Ye, 1k more players might explode those servers xDD
Everyone is gonna play cod beta anyway
It could just be the game's new anti cheat that is causing this problem
Just EA app being EA app
Yup, guess I'll launch Battlenet and preinstall MW3 lmao
Lol
If game is on steam i wouldn't approve any game to need to launch any other launcher
such a shitty practice no launcher besides steam works
Glad I ain't the only one suffering this launch problem
Oh my god they made AA strong
Shitty fucking update
My fucking aim snapped to some dudes head
why is EA app so shitty, it's the shittiest one there is
On my day off, i was actually excited to play the new season, since before redux, what a disappointment
IDK, I just launched Battlenet and it's updating my MW2 at 108MB/s
So I install the 2042 update, I think my computer went to sleep and it gives me errors when trying to update it again
I have fiber lol
Not the person you responded to, but yes
Like a thousand times
then I uninstall and reinstall
I expect a Full fix today
no fix
Yay
worked for me the first time 
I dont even get the Anticheat loadscreen
Dice not to be shitty at update launching impossible challenge
welcome to the club
It just stops running the game, and opens the EA app library
+1
Those it students are working hard right now to fix this at DICE
indie game studio 😄
They need a raise
hey your pfp looks like this thing
Its the leper king
who?
I guess we both take it from Baldwin IV from movie Kingdom Of Heaven

yea
Wake me when october ends, by then the devs Might know how to fix this
I can't get into the game. I'm launching through Steam. EA Launcher loads, I get some kind of popup then nothing. I've tried the app recovery method and nothing. I've tried to reinstall EA launcher. Nothing.
I’ve died like 3 times to spawning on a squad mate that’s getting killed
and the QA workers wants to unionized, they can't even do their jobs lol
so how's things
literally cant launch the game, steam just keeps making my validate files lol wtf
For the steam users , uninstall the EA app. Launch through steam. Updated EA app installs. Play game.
just battlefield things
does your EA anticheat prompt show?
For me it doenst
have they just moved over to their new anti cheat?
No
I think that was the plan
yes, if the EA anticheat prompt doesnt show then it wasnt installed during the patch, uninstall the EA app from your PC and verify the integrity of the game files
it will install EAC properly
I heard about it becoming a thing soon but didn't know if they'd integrated it with season 6
I click on bf 2042 on steam to start with EA it opens another EA instead of opening the game on steam wtf
I did this, but it still wont launch
Tried that exactly. No visible effect.
steam just says "validating" when trying to run the game. uninstalling ea app helps this?
hey hope you doing well,
I am glad i am not the only one to have that, i uninstall my game after i come over here lol xD 😢
thank you, I'm gonna go play cod or fortnite
at least those work
it cannot be whilst the game is validating, it needs to be in a cold boot state
when i downlaod apex everything is fine
See, on launch a UAC prompt for Steam does show. But nothing beyond that.
Oi yall are PC users troubleshooting should come nautral
This problem hasn't been fixed in 7 hours...
Doesn't the Battlefield, X account have the solution posted?
for what installation? the EA app?
IT students went home. They will try to fix this tomorrow
Installing from EAAntiCheat.Installer.exe doesn't work sadly
uninstalling EA and then trying to run game from steam just makes steam try to install EA app lol
They suggest a Steam solution. But also EA platform people have problems.
Infinity circle of ea app launching kekw
The window that pops up after launching through steam says "Link2EA"
And then it fails the launch
Sisyphus
then you didnt uninstall the EA app properly
you need to uninstall it through the control panel and reboot your machine
i sure did lol. thats exactly what i did lol
Same lmao
young me when I delete the shortcut thinking it would delete the game 😔
ok ill restart pc
Didn't reboot. Let's try that
lmao im 32, i know the diff
i do everything like uninstall going to %localappdata% etc
Still have the message at 14% download error
On EA desktop
I dunno, he might be constipated
anyone else cant start game after update?

Many can't even update the game mate xD
I uninstalled reinstalled to make it work ea app
i see
Ea app bravo
No
on steam it keeps valueting
loving the xp nerfds, bravo dice
Okay I restarted my PC and now I'll try to launch Battlefield from steam
been playing since season started and only level 5 
You guys can’t play?
Because the devs are lazy shits and didn't check if the update was ok for launch
Did everything my game ain't opening
Its just slight inconvenience as some butt lickers here said
Yeah i tried reinstalling the game and uninstalling the ea app and that didn't do anything
did we got zombie mod or something tho?
we got not to be able to launch a game
Same, restarted my PC uninstalled EA, restarted PC again. Steam is just trying to install the EA app
lol
"We're aware of an issue that is affecting some players,
We dunno what to do about it and our interns are looking to it"
This is the s6 update experience
Uninstall EA App, clear local data out, take Xanax, restart PC, and launch through steam
We all don't like when stuff don't work. But no treating EA staff and/or users on here badly please.
You wont get a job at dice, stop
we have 16 weeks to play this update, we all know what happens on season launch days, just need to accept that it might take some time to resolve
They're being professional
I respect it
My game wouldn't start either after the update. For me, the problem was in the EA app. Solved it doing this:
-
Select the three dashes in the far-left corner of the EA app.
-
Scroll to Help.
-
Click App recovery.
-
Select Clear cache.
I can't open the game
Gaming nowadays is to accept that games have shit updates, and bad launches and thousands of bugs yes
Reminds me of back in season 3, there was a whole week where the game just wouldnt launch no matter what we did
I'm so sick of it
I hate the mentality of, oh they will fix it
I refuse to accept
It should be fixed before the launch of whatever but i guess
They should've fixed before launch
And we should still not accept it quietly.
this game sure has been a dumpster fire since day 1, glad to see nothing changes XD
They had it working pre-launch already...how else do you think creators were able to play it for the last 2 weeks.
Unexpected things can happen when you release new updates, especially ones adding a brand new anti-cheat to a mass of people
It should've been flawless but you fumbled the bag again
Go try MW3 Beta 🙂
brutal expectations 
Oh wait, its riddled with hackers already
with thousands of people trying to log on at the same time to a new build
This didn't fix it either
It doesn't help that the movement is awful
i guess we didn't talked in this case only WHATEVER game you pick today it's close to broken
I get it's annoying, but there's better things we can do with our time
But this ain't a server issue
it's just happening with whatever
i really wish i could play the game rn
Fudge this , time to play Minecraft
but dice said no
Dude i was running from work and bus
😦
Today, I feel good being a console player
Console master race
Certainly. Still not an excuse. All the more reason to test longer.
Hope my PC bois can get on soon tho
I can be mad
See, that one dude gets it. Be less madge. Play Minecraft ❤️
World is always better after some Minecraft
Its next to impossible to test for scale like this
How can a multi billion dollar company mess up an UPDATE this bad
Nah Minecraft devs are lazy too, depending on us to pick shit for them
A mass of people xDDD 5k players on daily basis
because the studio probably has a budget less than my salary at this point XD
can we build house together 🥹 👉 👈
This is not a scale issue.
Have you seen the quality of the last update, a big fat nothing burger
Holy shit my dude, you need like to go get some air. You are so madge ALL the time. Go touch some grass lol
What is the issue then, please tell me
Well that's it then. Time to quit gaming in general and upgrade my quality of life by acquiring new skills.
good one :D
It absolutely is a scale issue
The new map is amazing love it
We can put our beds togeher
How's the new season and map?
Bruh their budget for a gun is probably more than most indie studios have for their entire game
🥹
so the exe not running is a scale issue??
I said nothing about exe not running, I said the ea app issues
Relax time
We chillin boy
EA Sports , it's in the game. You can't play.
i got a little trick from bk in my ps1 days when a game wouldnt load i got my tower at a 45 degree angle so fingers cross please load please load🤣
Yeah uninstalling EA doesn't do anything lol. I've uninstalled it and then reinstalled it twice, restarted my pc, cleared all local data. Nothing. I'll just come back next week LOL
urgh, anyone got a fix for 2042 not downloading on the EA App?
patience
Yes waiting omE
Reinstalling/Repairing is not gonmna fix it. Just wait it out
in that case... I will wait
Doesn't exist
I have it downloaded. It doesn't run, but it is downloaded.
I NEED TO GO FOR ONE MORE 10 HOUR SHIFT BEFORE I CAN PLAY MAN I JUST WANT TO CRY 😦
Put on some music, play another game, read a book and relax
Clearly EA requires more money from us to get this to work.
Getsome coffee or tea
is there no dynamic response curve? what to use instead
Another day to wait
Who wants to start the gofundme?
or dont defend one of the nastiest gaming companies out there, i see you EA lol
im pissed too because i just bought the premium pass just to not be able to play the game :)))

its not like you lost the premium pass
I don't recall bfv having any issues like this when a new season dropped
It is not like this has not happened before to SO many recent games
I miss Origin 
There weren't seasons in BFV?
Bruv watch, I'm about to fix this error rn. This bug is getting squashed.
you should learn to not buy anything from ea before u see it, last time i got burned on this game
You gott his Nobody !!!!!
Lemme at em
There kinda were
I BELIEVE
chapters, same shit
can they fix the download i want to play operation locker
I miss EA Downloader 
Not really, but ok.
I miss playing the game
well i actually enjoy battlefield, so i dont mind spending a bit of money on it tbh
lets see if we can make it 48 hours without a patch for this
i just hope one day i can play again something like bf3 or bf1
BF3 resmaster would be pretty nice
BFBC 2 Remaster ❤️
they already have the assets from portal so it wouldnt take them that much time
I know we got some new maps, but that game was so freaking fun
How long ago did this update release
Gunplay is not the same compared to BFBC2 though
And the gunplay is why BFBC2 was fun
Serious Observer, it is like you have never played a game before today the way you are acting lol.
Can someone explain what aim input curve is?
If you have ever played an MMO in your life, this is nothing
only way BF3 can get better than it already was is by making it as satisfying as the gunplay in BFV
i kinda liked the days before sniper scope was shining lol

Where MP7
I think its fine tbh
no becouse someone can see me aiming at 5000m
gives people a chance to either shoot back or get to cover, or else you wouldnt really have a chance unless you die and see their position
but ur sniper right
why you staying that far away bruh
huh, I take it PC download is broken atm?
Snipers have a glint
Sadly yes Edge
well then righto, hopefully that's sorted in a few hours.
So go play some Minecraft. We gonna start a MC resurgence lol
I'm currently modding it, so there's that I can get on with
btw, are the Boris/Crawford changes "the engineer update" that DICE talked up before Redux?
season looks good though so when it works I'll look forward to playing it
must be, surely
i fucking hope not but i think they are
Got my coffee as you said, i'm sitting in pain but i'm chilling so we getting there i guess
what are the changes?
Any fixes for the game simply not even lauching?
I hope not too, but that seems to be the case. Pretty disappointing if that's the "update" : /
its the servers, nothing we can do
well I can't see them commiting to a full rework
boris passive has its radius doubled and his turret gets 25% rof buff when in radius, crawford passive is replaced with an extra rocket for launchers
So the servers being down affects even the .exe?
Hello chat
Everyone get Coffee, Tea, Feet up & unwind. Put on some music and chill. We can do this. Max relax
for no one don't waste ur time
boris buff is meaningless and Crawford is arguably nerfed
Alright boys I'm about to fix this bug; for myself.
your game will either fail to download the update, or will continuously validate itself over and over
what is the topic about?
Engie pseudo buffs
crawford players are weird anyway
My PC says I need to donate Bitcoin to some hash, I don't think I did it right
I managed to download the update no problem. When I click "PLAY", the shitty EA thing pops up, and then nothing happens :/
yup, do you have BF2042 on steam?
yeah crawford's buff was actually unique and gave him a purpose, I don't see why it needed to be given to him in the end
Crawford is a great rep man tho
yeah
You have to play crawford if you want to use a dumbfire launcher
trait I mean
Not anymore 
Coffee goes crazyyyyy
How goes? Fixed yet?
yeah but i like my boris tooret
thats means its validating over and over
boris is definitively the worst operator
we gotta wait until EA fixes their servers
When performing a revive, attempting to Fire or ADS will now cancel the revive action.
oh shit, arguably best patch note
crawford is better in 99% of situations
No
i just wouldnt ever use his minigun
so i might start using Liz
I never played anyone beside Falck and Lis that goes to change this season
i don't either, but its still useful as cover
ah, even tho its not saying that it is validating, its still doing something?
like a sideways irish barriacde
I haven't re-installed the EA App yet, just cleared the cache. Trying the re-install right now.
yeah pretty much
this is almost useless but still more useful than boris
boris and crawford really are poo
I did that, reinstalled app, restart pc did everything and infinity loop of launching ea app
I tried multiple times didnt work
Turns out dice hard nerfed battle pass xp gain
Thanks dice
shit and shit
Lol, EA almost 35 billion company and handling a lauch like fucking 2 person indie company. What a shitshow...
at least boris' skins are better
again? and how so?
Well there goes the two hours I have to play this game today because it won't launch at all.
Battle pass pips start at 6.5k xp instead of the pasts 2000
Well , I'll try it anyway. For my next trick I re-install the game entirely
FIXX THE GAMMMMEEEE
Meanwhile, Activision/Battlenet download my COD update at 110MB/s lol
Also portal servers are disbanding and xp isn’t being registered
this be online games in general dude. sometimes updates cause problems, it happens.
All to sell the stupid fast pass and ultimate battle pass
Thanks for the amazing EA app. Ruining my precious time after work.
the season is also longer right ?
That's...not great. Not awful since the weekly missions do a lot to speed through the pass.
Weekly missions are only 27 + 10 pips a week now
Instead of the pasts 49 and last seasons 55
I mean yes, but c'mon you would imagine a veteran like EA would have QA process.
you fuckin real?
When this works I'm going to be so hyped.
It’s technically in line with past seasons but the starting xp pips is a huge nerf
In the past I’d be level 10-20 by now
With that pace of progress it's almost like DICE thinks the game is good enough for people to nolife rofl.
I’m still level 5
Gotta give players a reason to come back to the game right?
hopefully that's a bug or a bad/dumb decision and they'll bring XP requirements down or something
Anyone know what the Halloween event is gonna be?
there'll be a halloween event?
And then never fix it
Yeah, they teased it at the end of the trailer I think
halloween falls around the mid season event
Oh I almost forgot the heli farm portal servers are broken
Alright now my game won't re-validate , instead the EA App opens but doesn't launch the game.
I think it'll be like a PVE or PvPvE mode
Servers are disbanding after 20-25 minutes and half the xp isn’t counting
good
Hopefully next BF game will be more similar to BF4, knowing EA it probably wont happen tho
oh wait, season is another 4 weeks? That'd explain the slower BP progress but also...exciting that we're now moving from 1 new map and related content every 3 months to every 4 months.
Guess DICE really is moving to full production on the next BF.
Tbf doesn’t surprise me
Hmm, i tried going through the files, and i found the "EAAntiCheat.GameServiceLauncher" Clicking on this made the splash screen appear
A lot of games are slowing down their battle pass and live service
but letting it run through, it ends with a "EA App not installed" Even tho it is
Which is fine tbh, the sooner they start working on the next one, the lower the chances of it releasing like 2042 did
This EA app must be part of the game. It's a hidden boss level.
why game is no open
Deep rock isn’t getting a new season for 8 months, halo has 4 month long seasons, Fortnite is having a break season, etc
you say that when we know there's a 100% chance of shipping incomplete if DICE is leading again : /
Servers down
Entire industry is slowing down
a channel for update issues would be great
It's due to it going to the holidays. Might as well extend the season a bit so it last until the devs etc. are back from the holidays.
Servers are down now?
Man I'm jealous of how Europe has like 3 months off each year : (
Unable to download the update is this normal?
But when you think about it, every battlefield game was shipped incomplete. BF4, arguably the best Battlefield, was released as a buggy mess and still isn't fully finished, but is still regarded by some as the greatest Battlefield game
who says that
BF1, a WW1 game, launched without the French
working with europeans and also DICE delaying S6 in part because they had their vacations rofl. not hating on it, just jealouss
As a french person, fuck the French anyway 💀
oh that explains a lot
The interns got called in
Can someone explain what aim input curves are
patch guy finally got to see his wife and family AND HE'S CALLED RIGHT BACK IN
The pinned section is all just fixes 
ah oui why ? lol
rip server
Another French brother 😎
Je sais pas honnetement, mais personne les aimes
Dice was able to sell the French and Russians as 2 separate dlc’s in a WW1 game
ah i see, thought u where saying everbody in europe would have 3 months off xD
Another bite the bait
Another French brother, shitting on France this time, real French behavior
If BFV wasn’t a live service game I’d had guarantee the pacific and Russian theatre had been doc too
What's happening ? Frnech taking over the server ?
Surpised they didn't try to sell the Germans as a DLC in BFV
bwhahahahaa
oh hey
This new map is awesome. This is what Breakthrough should have been from the beginning. No stealth helicopters, no tanks, just straight up gunfights.
He isn't French ?
And that's okay, because the amount of content we had at the beginning was a lot, and the expansions were way bigger than they are in BF2042
It’s the only faction they could make 💀
Anyone help with the Season 5 orbital Easter egg step?
Any of you guys able to play?
DOWNLOAD IS ON fam have a good game everybody 🙂
Good luck downloading the update
I did
Oh shit it's downloading
All of our games are broken, we can't even get past the EA app boss
We had the British Commonwealth, ottomans, austro-hungarians, Germans, Americans, there were plenty
Turns out clearing the cache for EA App worked
I'll not forgive them for that, they peed on my country 🥲
OMG OMG OMG IM IN
I hate how the gun in Dozer's hands have like after images
HACKERMAN I'm in
It looks wonky
Yes BF1 was the most feature complete at launch it’s just funny that the country that took the bulk of damages in WW1 was sold as a dlc
me too
WAIT IT'S FIXED
bells 🔔
im in
HOLY SHIT
How'd you get in?
I can't launch the game. It keeps validating the files but never launches. I'm on steam
[1:00 PM]
I reinstalled it, reinstalled steam, ran everything as admin, nothings working. I wanna play season 6!
Still can't download
i think they just fixed it
For now, I saw a bunch of people experiencing bugs
What else would they release in the DLCs tho, you know what I mean?
Those interns work Quick
Yeah they just booted up the servers LMAO
Thank you Totalpass
Oh sh finally started downloading
Nah I’m saying French should’ve been there from the start is all, I’d have sold the Americans as a dlc or some shit idk
I can't launch the game. It keeps validating the files but never launches. I'm on steam
[1:00 PM]
I reinstalled it, reinstalled steam, ran everything as admin, nothings working. I wanna play season 6!
Shit, someone finally drove to the server room and turned the power on!
lets go baby its loadin boys
LMAO right?
Happy for you guys, now wait until you see the battle pass xp requirements

And it only took them the entire morning
just 7GB an i will be able to play xD
Praise the LORD DICE xD
You ain’t getting the new guns until the season ENDS 
In
thank god for gigabit internet
I'm still pissed at dice for this issue but hey it's fixed
7GB holy

I had faith the entire time, never doubted EA DICE for a second
holy shit, it's actually moving
Good lads
just 6 mins for me, sadly no gigabit xD
fucking finally
i have to download everything lol i unsintall the game 😢 xD
94MB/s download rate good job servers lol
And i was about to boot up SF6
never downloaded anything with 18MB/s @ EA App
Wait
Getting 69mb/s
idk if its working for steam, but now i have to validate 86gb yippy 
Mfw they broke every platform except epic games
I could prove it with a screenshot but I don't have perms
Man is about to find out
Lmao
do people even still use epic
stg that shit died like 3 years ago
Have you cleared the EA App Cache?
The launcher or the word?
i waited and did nothing and now it's working .
I restarted the EA app, I restarted the pc
both
Isnt Bird the word?
Oh the fork knife launcher
take me back to the "epic battlefield moments" era of youtube
I mean both are cringe anyways
Man, I know it's not a big deal but knowing that DICE absolutely thunderfucked BP progress this season actually has me pretty unexcited. Knowing I need to play more, and longer, to get the same rewards I've been getting just really feels like hotdog poop water.
Now it's verifying 48GB of files
Ultimate Pack went down to 17.99
Are the weekly missions really only giving 3 points?
"Epic Gamer"
rookie numbers, i gotta verify 86 :)
Just freakin leave the grind the same and let the last 4 weeks be bonus rewards or something.
People still unable to get in the game?
Nerfing it just feels bad with no meaningful tradeoff or benefit.
i think its just for steam users
atm
Now it's saying 3.03gb file to verify this is weird
fuck sake
Who wants to sponsor us to revive #direct-communication
Big Words
alright folks on steam, ive got a full video guide to fix your issue, need to wait till its done processing
This is why I struggle choosing between steam and the native launcher
The refund policy is so good

bf2042 got shut down after rockstar gta5 sued them for copyright
Finally launching. let's see what's new
there there, you'll get there
this update is fucking amazing. thank you dice.
Please make it step by step, and dont leave out the little details
verifying game files for the 20th time today 
its 3 minutes long, nearly finished processing
... I know, I got it to finally work
While DICE figures it out, here's the fix for people who are still unable to launch via Steam:
- Go to your game install location (like E:\GAMES\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Battlefield 2042)
- Go to EAAntiCheat folder & launch EAAntiCheat.Installer
- From the drop down select Battlefield 2042, hit install & let it finish. It should say '(Installed) Battlefield 2042' now.
- Launch the game from Steam & let EA App show up
- Now clear the EA App cache & launch the game again
How to clear EA App cache (as posted by EA):
1⃣ Visit the EA App "Hamburger" Menu Icon.
2⃣ Highlight Help
3⃣ Select App Recovery
Hit Clear Cache on the popup
Mine is downloading ❤️
Is that an ad someone just pinned?
cap
Nice
better
yep
no
lol
that is not a fix. many people tried this like 5 times
We are but poor server admins who cannot afford to run #direct-communication
what happened to that one program where some people in the community had direct contact to BF Devs
Try this #battlefield-2042 message
Creator Network
idk if thats what it was called, but something like that
What would one get from it?
😄
this is not the fix.
this is just a bad troubleshooting idea that works normally
Pride and accom...
uhh, Regular role?
this time its server issue
Yoooo there's a ridable drone now
Worked for me man. In my case the anti cheat just wasn't installing.
ok but for 99% people its server issue
Isn't that about not being able to download?
server is down. that why it doesnt download
ea broke something again
it doesnt work for anyone
i mean it works now
got fixed like 2 minutes ago
without any cache clearing nor stuff like that
where do we clear EA app cache
i just got mine to work 
this is not the solution. just try again. now it should work
Press Left Alt while the EA App is open
same. but not because i deleted cache. its because the servers are back up
it wasnt a server issue
@neat grail im waiting on HD processing finishing, it will be 30 minutes
it was.
no it fucking wasnt for me
well it just started validating again
Anyone having XP issues?
I bought the right most package and it saids transaction cancelled wtf
If i buy normal Battle pass now will i be able to buy premium lateR?
yes it was.
just game if its working, why aruge 😄

You know these 50k heli servers, only getting 15k instead of 60k.
it works because servers are back up
not because you deleted cache
i didnt delete cache and it works for me too
If I still can't launch the game imma be fucking pissed
On the upside, restricting AI inputs work now, which is a good thing for me since the targets in my shoot-house don't occasionally jitter
Dude at least read before commenting. This is about people who are unable to launch. Not download.
did you buy 2042 on EA or Steam
EA
i was talking about mine on steam
Yeah, so read please

steam common L
then you should clarify it
isntead of baiting
"launch the game from Steam"
im pretty sure youre talking about steam...

idk that arguable
????
it says eaanticheatinstaller
Alright , I am ready to give my review after extensive gameplay.
you tell us to go in steam library...
