ivory canopy
Yeah it was designed to be used to lay suppressive fire while advancing to the enemy trench.
mint sable
Yes
ivory canopy
The Germans had no comparable weapon so they just took what Chauchats they could capture and rechambered them.
mint sable
Didn't they have madsens
errant scarab
@mint sable ur fav BF is

I mean, Madsens were a thing
They're pretty bourgeois arms compared to the Chauchat, which was made cheaply.

So they would've had less?

Hardline > Codclone
ivory canopy
Granted, the Chauchat had some reliability issues in the mud laden warfield that was the time of the day.
mint sable
Yeah that mag wasn't a great idea
royal swan
I don't think hardline ain't that memorable to be up there, game is more forgotten than that free to play bf that we try to forget

Those issues tend to be exacerbated, especially with the .30-06 rechambering

Just got my bearings again in 2042 since I had EA Play for Titanfall 2 and this is probably gonna be my game for when I’m not in Apex (which is for at least the next 5 days as I have Level 109 and don’t want to do the BP grind in that game since I don’t have much I can do
ivory canopy
MCS-880 deserved a buff
Before 6.0 it was far and away the worst gun in the game. I haven't tried it since but I've faced enemies with it that just dumpstered me
tacit sphinx
the issue has always been consistency
ivory canopy
On a side note, I'm halfway to the T1 for the RPK

Yup

The buff was substantial
tacit sphinx
when it works it’s a pretty brutal shotgun for videogame standards tbh

A lot more consistent up too 20m with the buff also

It does seem to be very competitive with the AM40
remote kiln
Hello. Have you noticed how screwed the VHX D3 is? It's incredible what can be...
it's not as powerful as you think, it will 4HK up to 10m.. and that's it, the g36 is a 4HK up to 20m and the acwr is a 4hk up to 30m, it's a good AR, but it's not an insanely overpowered weapon
knotty carbon
Friend, the new assault rifle is from another league. It is not normal.
kindred flint
linear maps are just trash... 3 lanes doesnt provide actual flanking 90% of the time 
remote kiln
another league of mediocrity yes
it ranks just as "good" in the AR league, that's all
it loses to the rm68 aswell
turbid pelican
Friend, the new assault rifle is from another league. It is not normal.
its just basic dude
it just needs a slight recoil and spread nerf
warm garnet
Wait guys is the reason certain games choose one GPU over the other due to VRAM size?
remote kiln
you mean discrete over integrated?
next onyx
Maybe I'm not used to the sheer damage the assault rifle outputs.
kindred flint
just unlocked the high cap standard mag for the vhx, tried it out for like half a match....its not bad 
next onyx
850 rpm knowing what I know from the m16 this is just easy mode.

brave steeple
Battlefield 1 is on sale on Origins

40 rounder reloads pretty quickly all things considered.

(but then again this new map is just a cluster fuck that doesnt actually resemble map/gun balance anyways)

Oddly enough, the VHX actually has a slower rof than rated in-game

BF2042 in-game ROF stats don't really match what's actually prevalent

It's really weird.
turbid pelican
BF2042 in-game ROF stats don't really match what's actually prevalent
Nothing about the in-game stats matches any real values 80% of the time
ivory canopy
Yeah I'd expect a rough estimate since you can't really get an exact number.
kindred flint
irl damage stats are way more impressive
ivory canopy
But it's wild that the M16 (rated at 800) actually fires faster than the VHX (if only just)

Hello there guys. Iam pretty new to 2042 so i Wanna ask what specialist would you recommend for new players. Or if you think that Dozer is good option to main.
elder palm
I can't use a rocket launcher and wingsuit anymore what a shame
remote kiln
Paik probably
next onyx
However general combat wise Mackay and falck are your easy go to's as they provide the most opportunities.

At least I can still use any weapon

I tried to play Recons but my controler aim is bad.

Then go to the pclfg

dapper bone
And i wanted to play Dozer because of cosmetics 💀
elder palm
Wait
next onyx
Haha dozer is a chonker.
remote kiln
I tried to play Recons but my controler aim is bad.
you have ALC tuning available in your settings to adjust the aim assist curve, it's highly advised you use it
elder palm
What does it mean by Year One pass?
Do I have to buy something additional to unlock the rest of the specialists
ivory canopy
The first four seasons are free
remote kiln
the year one pass means you unlock content from the first 4 seasons
ivory canopy
You gotta pay 1k battlecoins per next battlepass
remote kiln
you can unlock the specialists for free, no content in the game is pay to win
kindred flint
dozer has so many good shield cosmetics though dude
ivory canopy
But if you've played the game enough during those seasons and had one battlepass, you should have enough to buy the next
next onyx
Honking chonker.
elder palm
But if you've played the game enough during those seasons and had one battlepass...
As it should be
It's just that one of the operators had elite edition under him and I thought I had to pay extra to unlock one dude
remote kiln
no, that's a skin
ivory canopy
nah the newer specialists are free
The cosmetics you can earn in-game
or buy them
if you really want
elder palm
Ok
remote kiln
the cosmetics for the elite edition cannot be earned ingame
elder palm
So like bf5
dapper bone
Use pp29. Lower your dead zones to 5%.
My deadzones are on 1.5 💀
remote kiln
they are exclusive to it
elder palm
the cosmetics for the elite edition cannot be earned ingame
That could have been clarified in the actual operator page from my point of view it looks like I have to pay to get them
Wait if the past battle passes were free can you still get them?
remote kiln
they were not free
ivory canopy
I wish DICE would reconsider their decision to stop at 14 specialists.
elder palm
The first four seasons are free
@remote kiln
remote kiln
they were only "free" in that you got the paid battle pass for the gold and elite editions
there are separate tiers
ivory canopy
I meant, if you had the year 1 pass
elder palm
Oh
elder palm
I wish DICE would reconsider their decision to stop at 14 specialists.
Probably because people aren't buying operator skins as much
I'd assume
ivory canopy
It feels so weird that assault and recon get four specialists while engi and support only get three

It's a lot easier to model a new tank than get someone to mocap

It's such a shame that I can't wing suit my way to a tank and blow them up with a rocket launcher anymore

Its blast radius is insane
remote kiln
not as good as it used to be
elder palm
for the better of the game
Is it better balance this way? Probably yes. Was it really fun? yes as well
At least they kept the weapons being able to use with any class that was one of my nitpicks of prior battlefield games where I had to use weapons I really didn't like

They should at least maintain it

If one has more dedicated memory doesn't that effect which one the game utilizes

discrete is chosen over integrated as it's more powerful, not necessarily the VRAM size, it's a factor, but it's not a overall decision maker

the 5600 has a APU with more memory, your discrete card doesn't have enough VRAM to run the game
which is why it runs bad

remote kiln
Well yeah this is just basic jet stuff I understand that, just wondering if you’...
it's not totally not doable, the question is if your rival jet pilot has afterburners available or not, which you need to either let them force out or be aware when they've used it, and that's based on your own afterburner amount, you can engage them if you don't have any, just you're at a disadvantage, so context awareness is everything
jet dogfighting is much more than "who shoots who", map knowledge and team positioning are critical
just going in blind to kill the other pilot will end up with you getting slaughtered by an attack heli anti AA or something else more often than not
I'll take that
delicate fulcrum
The method I usually go with is I know for sure, if the other pilot knows what they’re doing, you both use the afterburner the moment you get in a turn fight, do of course try and get the better turn to start the engagement.
But my only issue is what to do when you’re waiting for it to recharge. Is it better to use it in bursts, or wait for it to full replenish. I need to wait for one of the big dogs like Silk or someone to make a video on it. I’m hopping on an air superiority portal server rn just to give it a go.
remote kiln
yes you need to use it in bursts
you gain tighter turns from burst usage than full draining, and the other guy will by default behaviour use it all, so you gain the advantage
delicate fulcrum
So you’re saying once you start the engagement, don’t use it all up? Just use bits at a time to remain with boost always in the tank?
elder palm
This turret is useless what's the point of having it if it doesn't even do anything and the buff of standing beside it barely does anything and it kind of goes against the whole idea of a turret. if there's a person near it and I have to be near my turret I might as well shoot him and kill him much faster

correct, jets work a bit differently in older games, in 2042, the initial burst has a tighter turn velocity than prolonged usage

Here’s what I found:
434kph - Afterburner max speed
391kph - No afterburner max speed
324kph - Turn Speed afterburner
254kph - Turn Speed no afterburner
If you want infinite boost you’re gonna hover around 265kph, boosting a bit then waiting to refill again what you just used.
Found a good middle ground is holding about 280kph, you can get two and a bit full spins in before running out of boost if you try to maintain that speed.
If on console atleast, I noticed using hold instead of toggle for the boost was useful, allowed you to easily pulse the boost and not need to let go of the throttle each time to deactivate it.

maybe this was asked already but is anyone else having issues loading into a full game of breakthrough? so far the largest game i found was only 18 players.

none on this end, there's a bug where sometimes playlists randomly don't get players, try another it should resolve itself eventually
karmic egret
The s22 is pretty ok but.
No it's hot ass
remote kiln
The s22 is pretty ok but.
sorry nah the nvk is literally horrid to use
such inconsistent ass damage spread and a horrible reload
not even slug rounds save it
karmic egret
I could make a cup of tea in the time it takes to reload that thing

sweet thnaks i'll try again, last night i kept loading into one specific map with only 16/64 players. Breakthrough is goated so i hope its just a bug
remote kiln
sitting there having to reload shells, which takes longer than a guy respawning from dying
you can't even pause it and shoot either without swapping weapons

sure thing
remote kiln
wait till next week is the answer

kindred flint

Ah thanks

I never really had difficulties. Just spray lmao.

Standard issue or high power for the gew
untold nova
I wish there were a definite answer for these things, it’s not like MW where there’s a single setup for each gun
remote kiln
well that's why you've got the attachment system
adjust to different engagements
only thing you don't need to care about is using suppressors they suck so you can avoid those
remote kiln
they got changed in season 6 and are terrible now so unless they get changed again you can avoid them all
or unless you're specifically using subsonic ammo the heavy suppressor can be used
but that's the only situation
untold nova
I’ll avoid all of them then except maybe the wrapped on the acw cuz it looks cool and recoil is fine
remote kiln
I'd say you're compromising your weapon but if you want it for looks fine by me
untold nova
Meh
Bullet velocity on that gun doesn’t really matter for me
Anyway high power or standard for the gew on redacted
remote kiln
always vertical compensation
remote kiln
again depends
if it was locker it would be the gew for everything but redacted not that simple
copper fulcrum
Do you wear depends?
untold nova
Yeah hipfire is better on the am40 but the gew gets more headshots
remote kiln
the issue is the flag layouts means there's extended distance engagements in certain sections for redacted, just be wary of where you're engaging from
untold nova
Got it
Also now that suppressors don’t matter I’m gonna use high power on the gew most of the time
If I want fire rate I’ll use the am40
remote kiln
they don't matter for now, just be mindful that it could change very soon
I'd be surprised if it doesnt
untold nova
Understandable
remote kiln
aim assist tuning under the settings
it's less than 96 hours since it was added so there's no optimal one right now, battlefield 3's curve though was well overpowered so probably that
next onyx
SMK should have a video out soon about aim assist.
urban skiff
Probably
karmic egret
Eh I don't like it all that much the slowdown fucks me over
sage totem
why did they make it 64v64 man
karmic egret
Tbh I'd rather play 2042 on pc, it's just the movement is too quick
sage totem
dice is so dumb
karmic egret
On controller
remote kiln
just set the slowdown to 0
karmic egret
I do
remote kiln
I mean fair, I couldn't go back to controller I don't think
well I could, but it's boring
solar widget
I know it’s not bf2042 but I can’t get bf4 to launch through ea
next onyx
Just abuse zoom snap lmao.
sage totem
wow dice im now in games plagued by ai cause u didnt keep it 32v32!
great developing!
next onyx
Who cares about aim assist when you can abuse instant kills that way.
karmic egret
Just abuse zoom snap lmao.
I am
remote kiln
it's not as busted in 2042 as in the older games unfortunately
solar widget
I know it’s not bf2042 but I can’t get bf4 to launch through ea
Anyone know a fix?
remote kiln
if it was id go back to tracking people through walls
next onyx
They should really disable snap aim for instant kill guns.
karmic egret
Ehh
next onyx
Cause apparently they're so hard to use they need the zoom snap.
karmic egret
Do any of you have uniform soldier aim on
remote kiln
yes
next onyx
Yes.
karmic egret
K
remote kiln
can't have it off gets too fuckery with camera changes
sage totem
ive given this game too many chances
karmic egret
Bro we get it you mad about 2042
remote kiln
^
karmic egret
Here is not the place to whine you wanna do that go to twitter or reddit
copper fulcrum
Here, no one will really care about whining
remote kiln
I feel bad for Kevin he gets so much useless bs in his replies
karmic egret
Though we do poke fun at the game we just pull the piss
Kevin how big is your shoe size
calm bison
Ok so I’ve played a bit of S6
Here are my immediate thoughts
I do like the new map
At least on conquest
But overall
The map is fun and is a nice reprieve from the vehicle stuff
karmic egret
Yeah a well needed breath of fresh air
calm bison
Haven’t gotten the new gadgets, guns, or vehicles yet so opinion is not certain
karmic egret
Guns are busted apparently
calm bison
I don’t like that the missions have so little BP points
I know it’s a bug
But still
I’m only at level 5 rn
Regarding jet changes
cunning nexus
You better hurry up get to 48 @calm bison
cunning nexus
I’m using the DMR it’s going to nerfed
calm bison
There’s a weird audio issue with the afterburn now
When swapping in and out of AB mode
The sounds do not sound natural
They sound spliced in
It’s rather jarring
arctic nest
aim assist tuning under the settings
i genuinely think im better without aim assist
calm bison
Also another thing
I do think that as a map
Redacted is more fun to play than Reclaimed
It’s more interesting from a gameplay perspective
vague horizon
It is lowkey
calm bison
Reclaimed, while being a good map
Does feel familiar, and not in a good way
I found myself quickly seeing all of the map and then just getting bored with the environment
With redacted
This map is actually cool
Although it’s smaller
I feel like there’s stuff I haven’t seen
And even when I have seen it all
I love the setting
So yeah
remote kiln
i genuinely think im better without aim assist
it's not? unwarranted, sorta, suboptimal, but muscle memory will be better without AA as you don't have your crutch lending you with your accuracy
shell ermine
The Metro/Locker fandom is the fucking worst.
I get it. It's a subset, it's popular, it's money. But it's like...the absolute perfect representation of Battlefield not being Battlefield, in my opinion.
Like if you want a linear infantry map something like Al Marj is way better than Redacted
copper fulcrum
I wouldn't consider Reclaimed to be an infantry map, unless you take out the combat vehicles
royal swan
Reclaimed ain't an infantry map, it's small but it does have vehicle areas
shell ermine
Meant Redacted
royal swan
It's a 2 in 1
shell ermine
To many Re- maps in this game
royal swan
You know honestly remove the grapple from Mackay
I'll go against removing content but sometimes there are things you just don't add
And the grapple is one of them
topaz breach
Just finished t1 RM68
royal swan
But they won't do that until we all universally push for such a change
And that won't happen as people will defend Mackay because they like being pussy rats
gray comet
Mobility gadgets mess up the maps
royal swan
Sundance is an example but her kit is fun as hell
proven igloo
You know honestly remove the grapple from Mackay
Just copy paste the one from Hardline and voila Mackay is now 200% more of a team player.
