battlefield-2042

[merry heart]

Yes, and from regular running compared to traversal sprint.

[mental delta]

Game rn is just a VHX-D3 and G428 simulator

And they some people are gonna say new guns don't always release overpowered

Damn Dice fix your shit

[arctic grove]

As soon as the season ends they will nerf them

[kindred flint]

new guns are always op

[modest ivy]

I found out which santa's in game name is

[limber orbit]

New guns are always over used as people get them lol

[kindred flint]

someone convince me the DMR is more broken than any number of the ARs in the game that just spit out bullets?

i mean i was doing triple and quad kills in the same mag at 10, distances on redacted holding an angle on a door because people are dumb...but i could have shot/killed faster with an AR

[willow sky]

tfw you're a recon,u have a spawn beacon on the obj and ur squadmates don't spawn on it

[kindred flint]

random annoyance, your squadmates are your/anothers becon but in combat and you are trying to select the becon but the games like nah fam, you keep clicking the squadmates

[tacit sphinx]

yeah it’s just recency bias lol neither of the new primaries are realistically anything insane, they’re both good guns but not really more than that

me when people want to use the new guns they just unlocked (wtf?? overpowered please nerf last week)

[mental delta]

You mean the 4 months long season we're in ?

[mental delta]

Yeah truly surprising you don't think ?

[wary idol]

crossbow for life

[fresh lintel]

"Recency bias" yet the VHX and G4 are currently out performing their trees.

[tacit sphinx]

except they’re not really lmao they’re just popular
because they’re new

[fresh lintel]

Like the G4 is literally out TTKing SMGs in CQC with simply bodyshots.

The VHX is also sitting on a really short TTK with no recoil or bloom to counteract it. And it has the range to boot. It might as well be the SFAR with short barrel.

[vocal tusk]

VHX is good on Redacted, but average on other maps versus other weapons (AM40 at close range, SFAR at range).

The new DMR is also good in general, but its also worse than other offerings. DM7 performs similarly, and the BSV-M still out classes it in most departments.

[fresh lintel]

Like fuck, ive lost CQC fights with a shotgun because someones using the G4.

Thats not recency bias. Thats straight up overpowered.

[tacit sphinx]

that’s a skill issue

[fresh lintel]

You're not funny.

If I can use a stock G4 and dumpster a jumping falk with a 12m, we got a problem.

[tacit sphinx]

also like. it literally is because you’re complaining about the g428 when more than half of the dmrs can do the same 2hk up close

[fresh lintel]

In the range compartment I still find the G4 simply out does the DM7. The DM7 has some wild bloom but the G4 doesn't seem to suffer all that much from bloom? Even tap firing them in a similar manner I feel like the G4 genuinely out does the DM7

[tacit sphinx]

also basically irrelevant situation because that’s closer to a matter of reaction times

[vocal tusk]

They dont have full auto modes tho, so they arent n00b friendly

[fresh lintel]

However the G4 loses against the SVK in proper range. Since the SVK can two tap.

[tacit sphinx]

yeah dm7 underperforms and has for a while

[vocal tusk]

The G4 has some crazy bloom/spread. Have you used it on a map other than redacted?

[gray comet]

Why do so many explicitly non-AA vehicles have access to 20mm flak, when it’s better than EBAA at being short range EBAA, but less than useless against every other target?

[fresh lintel]

See if you were knowledgable you'd know that the SVK has a higher TTK and cant be spammed as easily as the G4.

This is why I blocked you in the first place. You come off as snarky and you THINK you know better than me.

[fresh lintel]

I have actually, I can tap fire it faster than the DM7. Though the current scope I have for it is kinda poopy

[vocal tusk]

Reasons. I wish they deleted the flak cannon on the transports when they disabled it. there is/was no reason to add that to the game.

[tacit sphinx]

yeah but also if people can’t click twice idk how they operate a computer

[fresh lintel]

Slower Rate of Fire + Blooms easily versus Full Auto and blooms less.

The SVK simply loses in CQC and unless you land both shots at 40+: You will still lose.

[tacit sphinx]

i said that half the dmrs can 2 hit up close
i did not say they kill in the exact same time lol

[fresh lintel]

Thats irrelevant. I know this.

Whats important is the ttk and bloom.

[vocal tusk]

DICE did a good job in general with making classes and vehicles make sense and have a role...but there are still too many vehicles that are too good at being alrounders (CAV Brawler, Transports with flak, RAM and MAV)

[willow sky]

I just realized the g4 has a full auto, woah.

[fresh lintel]

Yeah.

[gray comet]

It was a nuissance in Breakthrough having one single jeep be enough to keep a gunship at bay, but having my Condor get deleted by one guy on 20mm holding mouse one a minute ago really made me think how broken it is

because its not like this is an EBAA specific weapon, no its on everything

[kindred flint]

lmao bipoded m240 loses against crawford turret at range

[fresh lintel]

Honestly I feel like some vehicles would feel tame if people used tank mines.

At all.

[tacit sphinx]

svk fires at what, 220rpm with standard issue which is the better ammo type for it? g428 fires at like 240-280rpm depending on ammo type off the top of my head
very big difference in ttk there i guess

yes the select fire is nice for maxing it out up close

[loud summit]

c5 better no?

[vocal tusk]

MAV doesnt need 3 explosive weapons seats

RAM having that 3rd AT/AA seat is just unnecessary

Brawlers Incendiary GL is annoying to fight...paired with the main seat having APS and close defense at the same time.

I hope they rebalance these vehicles (And just delete transport flak cannons from the game)

[ruby citrus]

destroyed 13 vehicles in a single round, game highlights 40 kills, wtf

[kindred flint]

m39 is absolutely horrible vs the g428 lol, theres no reason to run that portal gun

[loud summit]

nerf vehicle yeees

[ruby citrus]

the m39 also has the weird thing where every shot sounds like a sniper rifle when being shot at with it

[kindred flint]

and if you equip a bipod the entire gun disappears

or was that just a me bug

[ruby citrus]

bug

[merry heart]

Nerf everyone

[willow sky]

playing as lis, my go to are the tank mines. they're really helpful on roads or areas where its easier for vehicles to pass through

[kindred flint]

i did get like 3 kills though..with an invisible scope

[fresh lintel]

It actually is enough of a difference. Plus also again, the bloom. Unless i'm barrel stuffing someone, theres a chance of a missed shot with the SVK with how its bloom works.

I can hold the trigger with the G4 and land both shots with ease up until the 40 meters range. Which THEN it might miss.

I am not debating this further with you, since you have shown to me numerous times that you literally don't know what you' re talking about.

[merry heart]

Nerf @robust vapor especially

[kindred flint]

for some reason i defaulted to using crawford for most of a discarded 128p match...holy shit hes so bad compared to lis lol

[merry heart]

[tacit sphinx]

one of us has apparently been clicking my messages every time to respond so idk

[kindred flint]

no mines, rockets that rely on teammates...oof

[willow sky]

@robust vapor yeah d0k OP

[merry heart]

[fresh lintel]

It is for general use but tank mines can block off some routes by killing CAVs. The CAV wants to push into your team. Tank mines prevent this.

[willow sky]

Yep, i basically only use crawford if i have a Rao partner in my squad.

[vocal tusk]

Less vehicle nerfs, more so placing vehicles into a class and role.

Even now, after the MBT mobility buffs, I fear the likes of the MAV, RAM and Brawler over any MBT

[merry heart]

More people should be using the Wildcat IMO yes yes

[fresh lintel]

Yeah same! Tank mines and Lis are an honest to god blessing.

[loud summit]

how many tank mines can you have

[calm bison]

Given how the regular Wildcat user just sits near their spawn and pesters jets, no thanks

[willow sky]

I usually main drive the MAV or CAV for my squad, and man...those sneaky mines are hard to see. The second I push on the brakes its too late....

[loud summit]

can a single tank mine 1 shot a mav?

[fresh lintel]

You start with 3. And thats all you need for most vehicles.

No

You need all 3 to pop

[willow sky]

you need at least 3, i believe

[loud summit]

okay

[vocal tusk]

At least the Brawler can tank more C5 and mines than a heavy armor...cos you know...logic!

[loud summit]

i will try tankmines

[merry heart]

Idk man I've played with Wildcat drivers that don't sit in spawn. It was pretty surprising to see these types of players.

[calm bison]

I don’t understand why wildcats are so particular about jets

[willow sky]

Honestly that makes no sense lol, MAV should be better suited for that scenario for how damn slow and heavy it is.

[tacit sphinx]

AT mines can kill some armour in 2

[calm bison]

There are so many other more devastating air vehicles and you’re going after the dumbass who barely knows how to pitch

[merry heart]

Idk why Crawford players don't use their Vulcans for anti-air

[tacit sphinx]

but you’re better off with a cluster of 3 because more coverage and more potential damage + the one leftover is not very useful by itself

[vocal tusk]

MAV and MBTs should have the most armor IMO. Then the Brawler/Wildcat have the same, but less than those HEAVY armor vehicles.

[ruby citrus]

crawford is decent only if you completely ignore the minigun exists and if you use the rpg

otherwise why

[willow sky]

absolutely agree

[serene hearth]

Hey if anyone is interested in joining a battlefield community look at my recruitment post

[tacit sphinx]

minigun is very situational but can be good on occasion
but his trait makes him the obvious go to for using launchers

[calm bison]

Had a brainlet moment mb

[vocal tusk]

Minigun is great to shred infantry and helis, also can act as some extra damage if you get the drop on armor.

Drop the minigun before firing rocket, fire rocket then jump on the minigun for extra damage.

[merry heart]

Because DICE specifically programmed (nerfed) his minigun to discourage air by vehicles.

[ruby citrus]

if you drop the minigun an enemy sundance will fly behind you within 10s

[willow sky]

Without wildcats or engineer players, ground vehicles and infantry get pecked off the field from air vehicles and its so hard to avoid them

[calm bison]

I get that

But why focus on the jet who’s barely going positive

[tacit sphinx]

idk i’d rather keep reloading unless it was my last rocket

[willow sky]

Yeah its a pain
and then i swap to wildcat >:)

[calm bison]

When there is a stealth chopper busy fucking your team

[tacit sphinx]

i find that a better strat for boris, get his turret placed down then fire off rocket, reload continue

[ruby citrus]

the minigun does like fuck all for damage you can fire until you overheat and do like 20% of their health

[willow sky]

yeah idk who the heck focuses jets if they're busy dogfighting

[merry heart]

Are you talking pre or post-Nerf minigun?

[willow sky]

You know...unless its an actual anti-vehicle jet player...

Then those people are scary

[vocal tusk]

Boris Turret is too inconsistent to rely on for any damage. He is just so useless

[ruby citrus]

boris turret is actl decent now with the passive buff

it locks on rather quick

[tacit sphinx]

boris’ trait needs rolling into the gadget’s base functionality and he gets maybe crawford’s old repair trait

[loud summit]

the only way to refill rpg is with angel =

?

[ruby citrus]

any ammo crate will do

[willow sky]

Boris is probably the worst specialist imo

[vocal tusk]

they should also delete this "Threat detection" BS from vehicles. Its hard enough to kill armor with our you being given a ded outlike if you do damage to one

[tacit sphinx]

this is in the situation of trying to get as much damage as possible in on an unaware tank

[loud summit]

does this apply to m5 javelin aswell?

[ruby citrus]

angel is right there

I'd argue bottom 3 though

[willow sky]

Angel? probably not the worst, people just don't spawn the damn crates

[ruby citrus]

crawford boris and angel are imo the worst three

[loud summit]

wee need another engineer and supp

then we have 4-4-4-4

[tacit sphinx]

it does 20 per volley which if you’re placing it close is going to be consistent, likely 2 volleys getting in if you’re placing it down then engaging

[ruby citrus]

your engineer options right now are lis or garbage but being able to run other launchers

[merry heart]

[ruby citrus]

and like, why run other launchers when the TGM is so good

bypasses every defensive system except APS and almost guaranteed to hit ground vehicles

[tacit sphinx]

tgm is fine for what it is but having t1’d lis id rather take crawford and a launcher now

[ruby citrus]

I'm working on my lis T1

290/400 rn

[tacit sphinx]

tgm you can’t really kill anything outright lol

[merry heart]

AT Launcher, right?

[tacit sphinx]

no angry bird catapult

[ruby citrus]

rpg is the best non tgm launcher imo, paired with crawford

javelin is too inconsistent and easily stopped by terrain, m5 is great but less damage, stingers are useless

[calm bison]

I want my SMAW damnit

[tacit sphinx]

crawford rpg is nice

[ruby citrus]

javelin only works if you have a teammate that soflams

[tacit sphinx]

m5 and rpg are both good options but i have the m5 t1

[ruby citrus]

javelin in DIR mode legit never hits

[merry heart]

They should have put that mini-drone plane thing from BF4 into this game for the lulz IMO

[vocal tusk]

Javelin should just become a top hit always

[copper ice]

tgm has piss damage

[tacit sphinx]

javelin is nice if you get a bit of height but yeah it can get fucked by like a rock or something g

[ruby citrus]

i think they made it top on soflam to balance it a bit because top is guaranteed hit unless they pop defensive measures

but i agree, its not that busted that it needs so much work

[vocal tusk]

Cool and all, but literally noone uses soflam

[copper ice]

they didn't take into account that bloody everything has defensive measures

[ruby citrus]

yeah, soflam/rao basically doesn't exist

[tacit sphinx]

it’s fun to just call down the wrath of god on a dude in a jeep though

[merry heart]

Maybe I should start using it

[copper ice]

why bother soflaming when thermal smoke

[tacit sphinx]

you can get top hits if you’re at the right range

[ruby citrus]

i think the reason people dont run soflam/rao is it feels so selfless, you get almost no input or reward for painting targets

[merry heart]

I mean i used the trench periscope consistently in BF1

[ruby citrus]

so it feels pointless

[tacit sphinx]

regardless of designation

[copper ice]

i stopped using soflam because it was pointless

[ruby citrus]

if i got a notification that i helped a missile hit because of my hacks i might run rao more

[copper ice]

because flares/smoke

i stole a transport heli once and someone spent the entire round dedicated to keeping me soflamed 99% of the time, and it meant nothing because flares exist

[vocal tusk]

Thats why I think flare cooldown should be lowered, but lockons should be made faster

[copper ice]

tanks get smoke AND aps

[vocal tusk]

Yeah, but tanks are stupid easy to kill

[gray comet]

Turns out DMRs can damage aircraft now

[copper ice]

with c5 yeah, with launchers god no

[ruby citrus]

flare duration needs to be based on the helo you're using

[vocal tusk]

All small arms weapons can damage aircraft now

[ruby citrus]

a condor should not have the same flare duration as a nightbird

[gray comet]

The game awarding me 50pts for forcing a jet to crash when all I did was hit its wing with one 5.56 as it flew by on accident

[dense nexus]

imo lis is a disaster

[calm bison]

Only nightbird and jets

Which for jets is kind of a stupid change

But whatever

[ruby citrus]

lis is a neccessary evil with the existence of countermeasures and them being so prevalent

[calm bison]

They move so fast it’s not gonna do much

[dense nexus]

also any option to change this awful vehicle crosshair?

[gray comet]

Jets also have way extended soflam lock range now

[vocal tusk]

Attack heli also, and stealth heli. the only air vehicles not affected are the gunships

[gray comet]

Out to 700ish meters

[copper ice]

it's the continuous rock paper scissors balancing they do

[ruby citrus]

since when, with AP rounds or just in general?

[gray comet]

General

[ruby citrus]

i shot at nightbirds before and it didnt give me any input

[vocal tusk]

With all rounds, but its basically meaningless damage

[copper ice]

stingers fuck aircraft, but flares fuck stinger, but lis fucks flare

[calm bison]

Checked

[vocal tusk]

The only effect it has is in stopping auto repairs

[calm bison]

The Penguins have been tampering with the manufacturing processes of Light Air Vehicles, with the MD540 Nightbird, Jets and Stealth Heli’s now vulnerable to standard bullets.

[ruby citrus]

in battlebit an LMG can kill a little bird with a mag dump, it should be the same here

[willow sky]

nightbirds, even with a squad, is incredibly difficult to takedown with lock-ons
thankfully Rao slows down the vehicle in the air due to the new changes

[calm bison]

Attack Helicopters and Gunships are invulnerable to small arms

Everything else

Boolet

[copper ice]

AP round magdumps dont even do anything to aircraft

you can dump a full lmg and get like

20 damage

[ruby citrus]

yeah exactly

[dense nexus]

bfv's vehicle crosshair was alright, now they reversed it - turret's crosshair is this large as fuck window and the camera's crosshair is well, a crosshair

[copper ice]

nice to block autorepair but a total waste of time in terms of actual damage

they need to crunk it up vs nightbird

[vocal tusk]

They do if you land...but its a stupid mag to have in the game...it essentially adds nothing, apart from some meme potential

[serene hearth]

I miss the ammo system they had in 5

[copper ice]

it's borderline nothing even if it does land

[serene hearth]

Would of been nice to have it 2042

[copper ice]

unless they buffed it alongside the default ammo hurting them

which would be a good change, so i dont think they did it :L

[vocal tusk]

A full 75 hits on an air target will reduce its health below 50%, so thats not nothing

[fossil herald]

why use rao to take out nightbirds
when usually they fly so low emp grenades do the trick

[dense nexus]

It's a "love letter" so they had to do the same thing as in 4

but the fucking vehicle reticle is awful

[calm bison]

It’s fine

[copper ice]

it should be killing a nightbird

[calm bison]

It’s not as good as BFV but I’ve learned to just make it work

[copper ice]

especially with how impossible it is to actually land that

[dense nexus]

like 5's but made by a toddler or dev without any game experience

[calm bison]

Same thing goes for jets in this game

[vocal tusk]

No

[calm bison]

I had to put up with the BS so I’m numb to it

Honestly tanking in 2042 is pretty fun

If you use HE shells

It’s great for BT

[vocal tusk]

Would be more fun if the spawn quantity for C5 were 2, not 3. C5 is still blatantly OP in this game.

[calm bison]

Here’s how to nerf C5

Block Mackay and Sundance from equipping it

Bam

Fixed

[kindred flint]

reduce c5 blast to 0

[copper ice]

there's no universe where anyone is landing all 75 AP lmg shots on a nightbird

if you do you deserve to kill it

[vocal tusk]

Reduce spawn amount from 3 > 2

Maybe allow recons to spawn with 3 (So it might up their pick rates)

[fossil herald]

it wouldnt be a battlefield game if the c4 wasnt hilarious though

[calm bison]

This is a good idea

[fossil herald]

it needs to be able to be strong enough to cause levolutions

[copper ice]

they really shouldn't have 3 c5 on spawn

it breaks the balance

[vocal tusk]

3/4 classes can spawn with C5 also.

[fossil herald]

they need to make the at grenade better and available to more classes

[vocal tusk]

Annoying tank/vehicle player? Guess ill swap to C5 for 2 mins....get to high ground and parachute ontop of them for an EZ kill

[copper ice]

when the majority of the cast can solo any ground vehicle in under 2 seconds as long as they get within c5 tossing radius

it makes vehicles really fucking shit up close

[fossil herald]

i wish we could post clips here lmao

[copper ice]

so naturally they won't get up close and will just camp

[vocal tusk]

Or just make APS on vehicles destroy C5 again

[fossil herald]

you can get alot more creative with c5 than just using sundance

strap it to caspers drone

strap it to a pondhawk

[vocal tusk]

C5 is just the "I win" option...cos it has no counter

[fossil herald]

strap it to a random pickup truck or 4 wheeler that spawns on the map

[copper ice]

i understand why they had 3 c5 on spawn; it is because there was no other AT method when 2042 released outside of the launcher

no AT grenade

no gadget slot that could damage vehicles

[fossil herald]

strap it to a damn m5c bolte

[copper ice]

but this has changed

so they need to change c5 to match it

[fossil herald]

its so hilarious also to just use it as a cqc weapon

great corner clearing weapon for redacted or 128 player rush

[vocal tusk]

Tanks in BF3, 4 and V at least felt powerful and fearsome. But MBTs in 2042 are just a joke. They play better now thanks to the movement upgrades...but they are basically crap cos every player just runs at you with C5, and the maps dont generally allow you to escape

[fossil herald]

CAV brawler can survive 3 c4 if its lucky i think

[gray comet]

Lissiles are not agile enough for helis

even the Hind can dodge very easily

plus, Lissiles are picky about what actually counts as hitting the aircraft

[vocal tusk]

CAV can survive 3 c5 and 2 AT mines. An MBT cant

Its a mess balance wise.

[gray comet]

It's also more resistant to rocket pods and can carry 2 engis

[fossil herald]

the cav brawler is also a real vehicle and the 2 mbts arent

[shell ermine]

Armor is incredibly weak in 2042

[fossil herald]

patria AMV aka rosomak in polish rervice

also the ebaa wildcat is a real vehicle

[vocal tusk]

Its less armor being weak, its that there are too many easy options to destroy them, and the maps being too open to allow smart vehicle movement

[copper ice]

yeah i forgot to mention they nerfed lis

[calm bison]

The T-28 is the T-14 ARMATA

[gray comet]

I felt it first time I fired

[calm bison]

Which is a very real tank

Actually no

[shell ermine]

APS needs to destroy C5 again and MBTs need a third gadget slot for something like the close defense system or repair+APS

[fossil herald]

not as real of a tank as the eblc jaguar or patria AMV

[calm bison]

What’s our criteria for “real” here?

Because the T-14 is a real tank, all shitposts aside

Best guess is that the M1A5 is based off of the Abrams X

[fossil herald]

more than 1 country uses them and they both have more than 100 units made

[gray comet]

T-14 mostly exists

not in really notable numbers

same goes for the Su57

[vocal tusk]

I think just having APS destroy C5 would be enough.

[fossil herald]

is the eblc-ram a real vehicle?

[calm bison]

Yes

Based off the Panhard Crab

It’s French

[vocal tusk]

There needs to be some deterant to players just bumrushing tanks for easy C5 kills.

[fossil herald]

everything is french

yet there is no famas

[calm bison]

I wouldn’t mind the KF-51 Panther being in 2042

[shell ermine]

Close defense system and C5 needs to be attached to the tank to do full damage

[arctic grove]

RAM my beloved

[gray comet]

MORE ARMORED VEHICLES!!!!!!!!

[calm bison]

We need more jet types

[vocal tusk]

RAM is a fun vehicle. I like it. I just hate how it has both AT and AA launchers at once.

[calm bison]

The raptor and checkmate would do fine

[gray comet]

Put the Su75 in line with the F35, and the Raptor as a counter to the existing 57

ez

[fossil herald]

yeah they need to add more jet types if theyre not gonna rework or buff current jets

[calm bison]

The felon is a stealth jet, so it would mirror the raptor

The lightning and checkmate are more in line with each other

Although the checkmate doesn’t properly exist

[gray comet]

nah bro that wooden model they showed off a year ago is credible

[fossil herald]

we need a damn a-10 and su25

or some kind of attack aircraft/bomber

[gray comet]

A-10 in the 2040s

[calm bison]

A-10 would be heavily outdated in 2042

[gray comet]

there was going to be a bomber drone and boats but they scrapped it

[calm bison]

I put emphasis on heavily because the A-10 right now is already outdated

[gray comet]

the A10 was outdated by the time it saw service ngl, outside of the culture surrounding it it has nothing going for it

[fossil herald]

we should have boats too lmao like cmon

[calm bison]

No disagreeing with you there

[gray comet]

Hourglass needs boats

[calm bison]

Can we get the Challenger 3 in 2042

[rotund kite]

the game looks so slow with standard FOV haha

[ruby citrus]

is there any solid helicopter guide one can recommend

i dont understand pitch yaw etc i want controls that are more aligned with everything else

whenever i try flying within 2 minutes i flip the helo over on itself and crash lmao

[plush jay]

Ghostgaming did some pretty good heliguides
https://youtu.be/qVoEu3e4ZxM?si=vJ3lnGzFzig1CLbb

For jets too

[ruby citrus]

jets feel way more natural for me

but they're rather weak and bad on most maps

[rotund kite]

the GOAT Silk
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nw9N2XOVeUM

[ruby citrus]

thanks both of you

[calm bison]

You’re just not usin them right

[ruby citrus]

ok yeah the first video explains more the things that i was confused about

which is how to actually make the helicopter move in the way that i want

[arctic grove]

Normally I don’t mind a balance of realism and gameplay cause I find it cool but in this case the game literally just needs more vehicle options especially for ground attack

I mean, BF4 takes place in the 2020s and included both the frogfoot and a10

[ruby citrus]

the whole pitch yaw thing just doesnt connect with my brain properly so i end up fucking about and crashing

i learned w means forward

[merry heart]

https://youtube.com/shorts/4-7G6DKKMhA?si=iq7g8WuMz5R-nGhS

[arctic grove]

The A10 can’t be outdated in any BF game when all the anti air options are being used by some random kid anyway

[calm bison]

That makes like no sense but ok

[arctic grove]

I think you forget it’s a casual sandbox fps game where half of every team ignores vehicles anyway

[calm bison]

It still wouldn’t make much sense in this period of time

[leaden oak]

Yooo

[calm bison]

By 2042 the A-10 would be pushing 70 years of service

70

[arctic grove]

Fairchild republic lobbying:

[leaden oak]

Anyone wanna play battlefield ?

[calm bison]

The Grease Gun wasn’t even in service that long

[arctic grove]

I mean by that logic neither would the damn near 60 something year old Apache which is in game

[leaden oak]

Im on xbox and would love to squad up it seems to be more fun

[arctic grove]

Vehicles are modernized over time

Despite most of the platforms being designed in the 60s-80s

[leaden oak]

Do i just join a channel?

[calm bison]

The difference here is that the Apache is applicable in a modern conflict

The A-10 is based off of old P-47 Hellcat philosophy

Which doesn’t compute with the whole MAA shtick

[arctic grove]

I think it’s a completely moot point when the A10 is in BF4 which takes place in the 2020s

[arctic grove]

At this point it’s becoming a weird circular debate so I’ll end it off with this comment to imply how it’s really not that big of an issue

[calm bison]

The A-10 is still in service right now in the current year of 2023 and the military is already looking for a replacement

One of which was a fuckin crop duster

[ruby citrus]

is there like a portal code for no helo respawn cooldown

i want to practice flying but i keep crashing lmao

okay, wtf does doing AD do and wtf does moving the mouse do

[fresh lintel]

Also isnt the A10 being retrofitted with modern tech or something because they cant find a replacement?

I thought I heard something about that.

Or maybe it is already but i dunno

[arctic grove]

I mean I could play semantics and argue it has use today since it’s been used in Iraq and Afghanistan but I get people mainly mean vs targets that actually have weapons to shoot back

[ruby citrus]

the bots keep taking my helos 😭

[arctic grove]

But yea it is and imo the a10 is still probably good for some loitering vehicle type of thing

[fresh lintel]

Wasn't it made to survive getting shot at though?

[arctic grove]

Yes

[fresh lintel]

Like making it back with barely a wing left or some exaggerated shit

Lmao

[arctic grove]

The pilot is basically in a giant reinforced seat which was made to prevent shrapnel from deleting the pilot

[arctic grove]

Yep a pilot landed one on a single wing and engine before

[ruby citrus]

okay yeah i give up, my brain cannot process helicopter flying

[arctic grove]

[radiant prism]

Its being retrofitted because it's horribly outdated against any kind of conventional military. The only reason it gets so much use is because the US has spent the last few decades fighting against irregular forces with limited anti-aircraft capability, but in a peer-to-peer conflict, its use is limited.

[ruby citrus]

i just want to learn how the fuck do i move forward while maintaining altitude, and how to quickly turn

[fresh lintel]

Makes sense tbh

[ruby citrus]

but nope, lets flip the helo upside down and crash

[radiant prism]

Same reason that many of its peers and a lot of tech from the A-10's era are seeing similar retrofits. The Su-25 Frogfoot has gone through a number of retrofits for much the same reasons as the A-10, and even in current conflicts its struggling to be effective because of the high density of MANPADS and other anti aircraft systems

[calm bison]

Yeah it’s a lot easier to say that the A-10 is effective when it’s fighting insurgents who barely know what AA is

[radiant prism]

(and even then it isn't great)

[calm bison]

What my biggest takeaway from the A-10 is that it’s a blue on blue jet

[radiant prism]

I do think LP bashed it a little hard, but that visibility issue is exactly why its getting retrofits

[calm bison]

At this rate, the F-15 would be a better CAS jet for 2042

[radiant prism]

Or just improved capabilities on the F-35/Su-57

[arctic grove]

I mean the f35 works fine for cas both irl and theoretically in game but dice just

is scared of JDAMs

[radiant prism]

Since we're switching more towards multirole IRL

[ruby citrus]

i think i realized my problem

my vehicle sens was 100 cuz i was playing lis

lmfao

[arctic grove]

Helicopters were always weird in this game since it feels like you’re constantly hauling a small jeep under them

[radiant prism]

also keep in mind that helis behave differently

[kindred flint]

lmao fucking rush xl server just shit the bed half way through constant stuttering ever 2 seconds

[fresh lintel]

I keep seeing red boxes appear despite our internet being fine

[fringe spire]

why does bf2042 display my EA account ID instead of my nickname ? doesn't make sense to me

[still vault]

EA accounts don't use the terminology "nicknames". They have EA IDs and some game title specific identities that I don't know if is being used in the latest titles. In short - the question is a bit too unspecific as to where you think you get a nickname from.

[copper ice]

aint no way anyone is landing a full AP pkp mag on a nightbird

[lethal prawn]

Is the am40 still viable for using

For like mid/short range

[kindred flint]

it still shreds

[ruby citrus]

ok the new dmr needs nerfs badly

more and more people are getting it and it shows how powerful it is

let the dmr beat smgs up close, why not

[lethal prawn]

Yea ive seen lots of people using it

[merry heart]

Very. But I find the VHX more stable and reliable.

[radiant prism]

Yes, its still great. Especially with the 40 round drum magazine.

Gets you that SMG-feel in an AR package still.

[lethal prawn]

Yeah thats the feel i had with it ever since it came out

[sullen quarry]

Finally, no more ppl talking bout Black screens and mouse lag

[wary idol]

im having a black screen and mouse lag problem

[ruby citrus]

i just black screened

[sullen quarry]

[ruby citrus]

no like deadass

not joking

[sullen quarry]

[azure zenith]

😂

[lethal prawn]

So ive been playing bf2042 with a rtx3050 and a ryzen5 5600

And it barely runs on medium settings

With like 40 fps

[sullen quarry]

Yeah that's kind of expected

[azure zenith]

Weird I play on Xbox series S and can play the old gen and new gen version no problem. Lol 😂

[sullen quarry]

Enable dynamic resolution

[ruby citrus]

im running it with a 1660ti and a i7 7700

1080/60 low

[sullen quarry]

dynamic resolution actually the goat

[ruby citrus]

its inconsistent imo

sometimes it cranks it to 100 when not needed

[sullen quarry]

If your cpu sucks it won't help

[lethal prawn]

Btw im runing it on 2k cause 1080 just looks really bad

[ruby citrus]

well theres your problem lmao

[sullen quarry]

3050 is a 1080p card

Bruh

[ruby citrus]

run DLSS at least

[sullen quarry]

Good lord

PC gamers not knowing how to PC game

[lethal prawn]

But everything within 5m of me with 1080 looks like ps2 graphics

Thats the problem i had with 1080

[ruby citrus]

genuine skill issue

[sullen quarry]

I second that

1080 isn't that bad

[lethal prawn]

Ne seriously when compared to other's 1080 gameplay it looks far worse

[fresh lintel]

B e t

[ruby citrus]

I'll have to disagree, without dynamic res and upscaling tech it looks fine

[sullen quarry]

I'm going to bed. You giving me headache

[ruby citrus]

not any diff than other games

[fresh lintel]

Goodnight mary

[sullen quarry]

Nighty

[copper ice]

try turning the settings down

i have a 1060 ti and i could get relatively consistent 110+fps on low

[ruby citrus]

they're running it on 2k, its the main issue

[azure zenith]

I'd never convert to PC. Because yall got so many settings and stuff you have to completely optimize. Like so many dials for your monitor. My 4k TV is just dim, normal, bright, and brighter. Lmao 🤣

[copper ice]

though i haven't played since the recent updates and some people said it tanked fps

[copper ice]

you only have to change them if you want to

[lethal prawn]

Btw with 1080 it gets to 60 and then it occasionally drops to 30

70 at best

[copper ice]

i've seen more TVs with fucked up settings that are harder to change than PCs

[ruby citrus]

weird

[lethal prawn]

But with constant drops

[ruby citrus]

i get mostly a stable 60, it gets a bit rough with 128 conq

others is fine

[copper ice]

your pc is trying to save you

[lethal prawn]

Lmao ive noticed that better games run better on it atleast that or i'm delusional

[ruby citrus]

it is poorly optimized, true

very cpu intensive

[copper ice]

if it's failing that badly it's your pc definitely trying to keep your soul intact

i guarantee you

[lethal prawn]

It's telling me to stick with bf4

Also funny thing i somehow run bf5 better on 2k than bf1 on 1080

[merry heart]

His PC telling him to touch grass.

I'm kidding BTW

[lethal prawn]

I have around 20hrs on bf2042 lmao

Im a certified grasstoucher

[rotund kite]

my 3060 runs bf 2042 ultra settings better than bf5 medium settings
it gets around 100 to 115 fps on 2042 ultra, but hardly consistent 75 fps on bf5 mid settings haha

[merry heart]

[loud summit]

anyone else has issue with sometimes textures not loading and looking like 180p

[kindred flint]

yup

[lethal prawn]

I somehow run 2019/2020 games like fallen order, dmc 5, bf5, doom eternal etc better than bf1, dark souls 3 and the witcher 3

[kindred flint]

well seems to happen during a match...shit just degrades

[rotund kite]

yeah, rarely but yeah

[loud summit]

[royal trail]

i almost always get in squads where theres someone who just sit at one spot the entire game and do nothing. i really wish there was a way to kick squadmembers as a leader

[astral radish]

@loud summit yes

[loud summit]

i wouldnt mind it if i get more fps through that but i stay at low fps with low textures

[lethal prawn]

But at the end of the day i play eu4 so im not much better either

[rotund kite]

the anti cheat needs your textures

[rotund kite]

frostbite engine optimization is random lol

[loud summit]

to defend witcher3 its graphics is crazy for 2015

[rotund kite]

indeed

[loud summit]

barely getting those 60fps on max settings. like in bf 2042 a 2021 shooter

[lethal prawn]

The game somehow looks better than most modern games

[rotund kite]

just like Assassin's creed Unity, the playability and graphics is surreal for 2014

[merry heart]

For real I mean look at this shit when I was on BF1 weeks ago

[loud summit]

Yea the witcher dev studio is crazy, they actually fixed cyberpunk aswell

[merry heart]

[lethal prawn]

Should def replay that

Twas a good game but it was buggy

But everything else was good about it to me

[next onyx]

Oh dear the kill log bug.

[loud summit]

played 50 hours and im battlepass 44

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

2 moreeeeee

[wintry rune]

Ooff grind is over, zain tier1 skin is finally mine and i can actually start playin the game😂😂

[loud summit]

i feel you, first gotta grind for all the nice stuff then enjoy the gameeplay

[strong snow]

Guess I should T1 Mackay

[fringe spire]

In the EA app you can pick a nickname for display purposes. It's separate from your acc ID. It isn't used in any way in bf2042 though

[dense steeple]

yall is it bad that i like to go into bots and level up guns xd?

but tbh i love the carnage i achieve with an LMG in bots lmfao

[fossil herald]

some things you are almost forced to

like some of the stock vehicle loadouts are so bad you gotta

[dense steeple]

yeah

[fossil herald]

like the stock unguided rockets on the ka52 and ah64

or hydra rockets for the f35 and su57

[next onyx]

Not really that bad to get it done via bots.

[dense steeple]

i love the 30mm gun on the ka52 ngl

i need to do more tank runs cus that 120mm STAFF shell is a pain to get

[fossil herald]

the transport helis 30mm is bad though

[dense steeple]

480 total kills on a tank is madness

[fossil herald]

50mm is much better

[dense steeple]

i was referring to the 30mm cannon on the ka-520 primary weapon

[fossil herald]

also its kind of ridiculous how many kills/teammates spawned you need to get the trophy system for the MBTs and CAV brawler

and if it doesnt get a trophy system then they want you to grind just to get the repair system

but then again for the "teammates spawned" unlocks, you can just play conquest 128 with real players and probably get it done faster

[azure zenith]

Hell Naw! Go get them attachments! 💪

[arctic grove]

You might as well, it’s a nice thing imo, i wish some games like cod did it

[dense steeple]

yeah lmfao

im trying to get the drum mag on the 12m auto now

[azure zenith]

Just don't unlock a bunch of heli attachments then jump in an online matches with a helicopter. Unless you're a Super piolet. Lol

[dense steeple]

helis are my main lmfao

i die more in bots as a heli than online

them bots have god aim with rockets

[azure zenith]

True! Best practice to fly is advanced solos.

[arctic grove]

yeah co op usally works the best

the ai will always spawn in your heli and essentially be with you to the very end

[arctic grove]

or theyll just jump out

As long as you don’t take a critical they’re unphased

[azure zenith]

Yeah I got pretty good with flying the nightbird. Can go practically a whole match without dying. Them miniguns are a grind though. Especially with all the bunny hoppers. Lol 😂

[arctic grove]

yeah the nightbird is easy to start off with

just dont get shot down by a wildcat or 4 liz tms

[dense steeple]

easy to start, but difficult to mater

[arctic grove]

yes yes

[azure zenith]

Yup

I'm getting used to rolling the mini guns into my targets. Hopefully I'll get there.

[arctic grove]

now that you brought that up, i forgot on how bad the vechile v vehicle balance is

[merry heart]

Pastry moment

[merry heart]

[ebon pilot]

yea idk how they made such a cool looking gun look meh in the game like cmon

[merry heart]

dice made me sad by not including the RX4-Storm rifle

[urban elk]

Doing the same.

Which gun is new?

The L9C6 or whatever its called?

[merry heart]

didn't some people call that gun the alien gun for some stupid reason?

[ebon pilot]

because it's called the Laugo Arms Alien Pistol

https://laugoarmsusa.com/alien-pistol/

[merry heart]

if it's gonna be called alien i was expecting it to look alien like Perfect Dark Calypso pistols or the Farsight rifle

[urban elk]

Btw. Alot of people including me often ask what the best weapons are.

But which ones should i avoid using?

Nwt-50 seems meh. Mtar-21 too

[arctic grove]

Ntw 50 is cheese but the reload speed is going to cap you a bit

[merry heart]

NTW is like the Martini Henry in terms of bullet velocity

[arctic grove]

That thing is 1 shot to 100 meters( unfortunately)

[fringe spire]

1 shot to 175 if you use the regular ammo

then 90 dmg

90 until 175m, then 75 damage to the chest with the high power ammo

[arctic grove]

wtf

[fringe spire]

yeah

the gun is pretty weak though

it's niche

I like to use it to poke some medium armored vehicles

but rechambering and reloading takes forever

swapping ammo types takes forever for the same reason

[urban elk]

Whats your guys' opinion on high powered ammo in assault rifles

[fringe spire]

I just run around with my pistol when I need to fight close range, the new pistol is p good

[fringe spire]

it's situational

I equip it when I fight long range engagements

on some ARs it's just the best choice though

[urban elk]

I was expecting that answer

Im fond of the GEW-36

[fringe spire]

for the scar, the largest mag you can get is high power for some reason

g36 has an extended high power right

[urban elk]

Long range semi auto shooting with the 2.5x thermal

What a beast

[urban elk]

Ye i think so

[fringe spire]

anyways

I need some tips about Angel

his ammo bags just refill gun ammo right ? meanwhile the airdrop crate refills EVERYTHING to full ?

seems like a pretty good pair with engineers

to refill their launchers, or let them swap to the proper launchers

[next onyx]

Yeah. His packs refill gun ammo and assault med pens, while his crates refill absolutely everything.

[fringe spire]

refills assault med pens ? oddly specific

[next onyx]

It was a buff a bit ago that went over everyone's head.

[fringe spire]

is there a cooldown to his airdrop crate refilling everything ? or do you p much get infinite ammo for anything as long as you're next to it ?

[next onyx]

Erm.

I never paid attention to how long the cooldown is but after interacting it, which resupplies you. It starts a cooldown.

[fringe spire]

I'm looking into combining angel with a friend playing as something like crawford to apply tons of pressure to enemy vehicles

okay so there is a cooldown, good to know

[next onyx]

Yeah my friend and I flew the pondhawk and bullied people that way.

[fringe spire]

lmao

guy in the back spamming missiles until running out

then land somewhere safe, get the airdrop, refill and go back to being a mosquito that shoots missiles ?

[next onyx]

@fringe spire

Yeah practically.

I run out of rockets, we run back and resume.

But I'm also using the PKP and gunning people down.

I read your name as Chelsea until I look closer.

[fringe spire]

is pkp the best anti vehicle lmg

with ap rounds

or is it the rpt

[next onyx]

PKP. I'm just using standard and gunning people down as you do.

[fringe spire]

holy that looks crazy

and then if allies play soflam its insane

[next onyx]

We got shot out quite a bit.

But it was good fun.

[gray comet]

Anyone else occassionally spawn in third person?

[tacit mirage]

Okay thanks, I was using a 6x zoom. Time to switch lol

[lone void]

Oh no, not the scope glint again

So this came up again the other day

Apparently anything 4x and up now has glint on it

I don't know if that's true

But

I wouldn't stop using a 6x just because someone might spot you

That's just more detrimental to you unless it's not a sniper/dmr.

[fresh lintel]

The whole glint thing is kinda cringe ngl

If I had a nickel for every time I've run someone over with my vehicle after it's been destroyed in the last week, I'd have 2 nickels. Which isn't a lot but it's weird that it's happened twice.

is it just me or do most people in th is game have bad mics

lol

[jagged wigeon]

Is the medic pen consider in gadgets?

[wide shore]

It’s not. It’s a third gadget slot for the assault class only

[gray comet]

Which rocket pods are the best for attack helos? Anti-personnel right?

[jagged wigeon]

So if I make it red "t1" i won't get the trophy of the gadget

[merry heart]

taking a page from Enlisted i see

[gray comet]

never played that

I simply wish that the bots weren't sabotaging

I also have to note how fragile the stealth helicopters are. Did they get a nerf?

hitting objects in one does not work the same as in anything else. Instead of the small tree or light post giving way to you, the helo bounces off it into the ground rotors first

[merry heart]

oh. well it's an "arcade" style ww2 shooter where you command a squad of 8 bots that can do various stuff. it has a multi-tasking aspect while being an FPS game. interesting, but its a low end FPS game imo.

What's the best & strongest weapon in 2042 rn?

[next onyx]

Am40 and vhx are the best close quarter non shotgun weapons.

Scar h, rm and the ac42 are the better ranged weapons.

[fresh lintel]

Based magnum

[next onyx]

I've been dunking heads with it.

Its really niche.

Cause it's a dedicated slot.

@fresh lintel

I fucked up so badly cause the instant I shot it I realised it was the m44.

I'm so fortunate he got shot the INSTANT I fired.

[jagged wigeon]

Is this ur best/strongest second weapon?

[fresh lintel]

Yeah ive been using the magnum a bit more. Its just a shame the deagle literally out performs it

[jagged wigeon]

we need red skin t1 for the magnum

[fresh lintel]

Dont we have a T1 skin for it? I know there isnt one for the Rex

[jagged wigeon]

we don't

[uneven lodge]

m44 has a t1 skin

very sad that acwr doesnt have a t1 skin or any paid skins

theres the universal ones but they dont count

its a good gun that fits my playstyle but it just doesnt get skins cuz vault

[still vault]

Ah, you are probably talking about the nickname you can set under the friends section. That is how you appear to friends in the app. Not much else.

[opal compass]

You got a second for general?

[next onyx]

Tier m44 just looks like a toy.

If the red was replaced with silver it'd look much better.

[merry heart]

I loved doing that in BF1 where I would blow up enemy HE tripwire if they're hiding behind a corner and are near it.

[pearl ridge]

Did they slow down battlepass progression again

Worked my ass off and got two points

[clear zephyr]

My friend said his game started getting blue screen and fps drop, that is normal for battlefield right?

[naive quiver]

I don't have such problem, it looks like your friend's side problem

[pearl ridge]

Can they just get rid of the 24/7 Redacted already? It’s sucking up all the players and leaving every other mode dry

[next onyx]

Let people enjoy the new map.

[royal swan]

Honestly yeah

Get rid for it

They enjoyed the map 24/7 enough

Can't wait for them to remove it once Tuesday comes along

[lilac crater]

So whats the best guns for each gun cat. (not the railgun for sniping)

[next onyx]

Assault rifles are pretty well rounded.

Lmgs too.

The balance is pretty alright outside a few Weapons.

[jagged wigeon]

No, we need it

[lilac crater]

a few weapons are better than the others or?

im trying to find a better lmg and sniper rifle really, its been a while since ive played, i played when the RM68 was king. im assumming its now the scar

[next onyx]

12m is stupid as fuck. G428 is fucked. Smgs have shit hs Multipliers therefore am40 and vhx are superior.

Scar, rm and ac42 are brilliant ranged answers.

[clear zephyr]

[lilac crater]

am40-vhx are good all arounders? also im assuming the AS-VAL is still broken

[eternal narwhal]

whats the meta weapon rn?

[jagged wigeon]

How do u guys know very well what's the best gigachadest weapon in the game? do u try all the weapons?

[lilac crater]

die by it8393457 times

[clear zephyr]

Is Rm68 most accurate and best at range AR

[next onyx]

[kind lintel]

hello guys, i have new server (bf3W) and also im using ps4

feel free to join the server, thank you!

[chilly jacinth]

no

[slate pier]

Whats the plan for new content for the rest of the season

If killswitch is the last new content we get, thats gross

Dead chat 😦

[idle saddle]

go to #general then maybe

[slate pier]

Is battlefield the current topic?

[gloomy wyvern]

Got so bored with Bf2042 that I completed GTAV a second time

[gloomy wyvern]

No, what's gross is Dices inability to patch a well known glitch

[lone void]

What

[slate pier]

They heavily reduced the presence of the mouse input bug recently

They only fix things when its extremely detrimental to the gameplay experience

[lone void]

You mean they fix bugs when bugs are a problem

Shit who knew

[kind lintel]

i miss battlefield 4 ps3 era 🥲

[frozen loom]

I need a new main gun. I'm tired of inaccurate full-auto ARs and single-fire DMRs.

[quaint vector]

Use SMGs then.

[frozen loom]

D:

That's blashemy.

I switched to the NTW-50.

I saw an enemy Archangel get crushed by his own giant crate while fighting off a tank.

[clear zephyr]

[quaint vector]

You can be Ultimate Support with Angel now.

You have his ammo and you can also run heal pouch at the same time which is nice.

[robust vapor]

the care package is good

acts as a wall

and supply station

you can also drop it on anyone

[quaint vector]

No, only the Ammo Box or Angels Supply Drop does

[limber orbit]

i get it but thats a goofy ass reason

im guessing you mainly play falck to just heal yourself?

and rarely revive?

[chilly jacinth]

people who play Falck and dont revive are scum

[quasi mantle]

thats bad with most of the falck players not reviving, im fairly new to the game, i suck hard and i shouldnt end up with highest amounts of revives but it happens quite a lot, seeing revives ranging around 2 - 10 with support class

just a thought from random passerby, dont hit me

[robust vapor]

I play games with a lot of falcks trying to compete with each other reviving people

[quaint vector]

I'm often #1 with Revives although I'm playing as Sundance...

[limber orbit]

must be an OCE thing

[chilly jacinth]

depending on map getting lots of revs is difficult

especially if your squad sucks pp

or the randos keep sudokuing

[limber orbit]

depends if you focus and that KD or not

[arctic grove]

[quaint vector]

I still think that they should keep the Syrette Pistol revives like it was intended to be

[chilly jacinth]

500m revs

[limber orbit]

i kinda wanna see it in action

snipe revs

[quaint vector]

They said it was OP (it worked to 20m), just nerf it to work to 8-10m Max and we gucci

[limber orbit]

i want accept or deny revive back

[chilly jacinth]

i want people to stop ending themselves when youre right next to them

[limber orbit]

i sometiems do cus of "muscle memory" and then i feel bad afterwards lol

[gloomy wyvern]

I'm talking about the rats that live in the walls on redacted

[gloomy wyvern]

Too many "medics" don't do their job. After all they did choose the op and no one put a fucking gun to their head and said you will run this operator

[limber orbit]

they do it cus of self heal

thats all it is

[gloomy wyvern]

This isn't cod, you don't have a self heal option.... You have the option of carrying a health gadget or a ammo gadget

[limber orbit]

what?

[chilly jacinth]

Falck has self heal

and med pouch and box is used as self heal too

[limber orbit]

you can self heal with the syrette pistol and the small health pouch

the assault one?

[gloomy wyvern]

None of them have self-heal, they have a gadget that is being abused by the public for not the intended reason

[chilly jacinth]

health crate

[limber orbit]

health crate and ammo crate

healing your self with a med pen or syrette pistol is self heal xD

[chilly jacinth]

theres a literal self heal mechanic for Falck though

dunno if you can replenish those

[gloomy wyvern]

These same medics can't even say "there's a bug where I don't see if you're down"

[gloomy wyvern]

There's also a literal self heal mechanic for every single operator it's called. Find a health crate

🤯

[chilly jacinth]

and you just said there wasnt one

bruh moment

[limber orbit]

wtf are you on?

and are you sharing?

[gloomy wyvern]

I don't know what the fuck you guys are on

[naive quiver]

[gloomy wyvern]

I'm saying motherfuckers are not using the gadgets for the intended reason

[leaden oak]

Biggest peeve about 2042, medics DONT DO SHIT, while when im a medic im tryna revive all my bros

[chilly jacinth]

telling you how the game works

[fringe spire]

Every medic can self heal with the medical pouch

It's p much like the syrette pistol self heal in terms of timing

[leaden oak]

Im saying when im down, there could be 3 medics around me and im calling for revive and they just go on their way

[gloomy wyvern]

It's because of these motherfuckers that abuse these gadgets aka the two that I'm arguing with about fucking self-heal

That the public refuses to let us medics actually pick you up until they see that someone is picking up 40 motherfuckers in an objective

[limber orbit]

thats not abusing lol xD

[fringe spire]

I agree, I play Falck only when I play on Redacted, and I see sooooo many spacebar spammers and so many medics who don't give a damn about me when I'm downed ...

[chilly jacinth]

so if im staying alive longer

reviving more people

im not doing well?

[leaden oak]

Redacted reminds me of nuketown

Love it

Small map, high kills and toxicity

[fringe spire]

Redacted has a spawnkill issue

[chilly jacinth]

just abusing mechanics

[leaden oak]

Yes the spawns are 100% fucked

[naive quiver]

redacted = farm bots

[next onyx]

Redacted on killswitch is really bad.

[fringe spire]

Redacted made me T1 Falck in a week, when it took me months to T1 Lis

[fringe spire]

Yeah that's the worst map for the mode, which sucks because it's the "OG" one lore-wise

[leaden oak]

I just downloaded battlefield 2042 yesterday because it was free on game pass. thoroughly enjoying it, but I feel like it could be a lot more fun if I had people to play with, so feel free to ping me if anyone Hopsin within the week I’m totally down to play. I’m not a noob either. I could show you some clips as well as I’ve had multiple experience playing all the other battlefield.

[naive quiver]

Yes redacted is easy way to finished your achievements

[leaden oak]

Some glitches though for sure

[fringe spire]

I revive and heal so many people on Redacted I often get top score just from that lol

[next onyx]

Its weird though cause I end up having lots of fun on redacted killswitch with the am40.

[leaden oak]

Dev problems most likely

[fringe spire]

You're 100% correct the game is way more fun when you have a squad to play with

[next onyx]

@fringe spire oh yeah here's a bit of a laugh for ya.

[naive quiver]

However far way to finish Boris

[next onyx]

The screaming never gets old.

[fringe spire]

That pistol immediately gave me a tumor in my optical nerve

[leaden oak]

Sniping with a pistol LOL

[next onyx]

What does it do to earn that!?

[leaden oak]

Classic BF

[chilly jacinth]

its the best pistol

[next onyx]

Yeah the m44 its kinda niche.
