That man is a BF4 Badmin

[olive horizon]

One day i will buy EA and ban you and d0k

[tawny carbon]

That don’t mean nothing tho

Not for a discord ban

[mental delta]

Clearly a server bully, kind of dude to ban you because you knifed him by behind on the Siege of Shangai tower's roof

[olive horizon]

No i will ban you tho, one day

[tawny carbon]

In general if you just kill him. If he 1 vs AI bots. He will ban every AI bot

[mental delta]

I'm waiting and preparing for that day from now on

[olive horizon]

Actually if i can ban bots i will they’re useless

[mental delta]

Lmao "get the fuck out of my server cpl-Reznov[AI bot] you cheater scum"

[tawny carbon]

Man will be play 1 vs self

[robust vapor]

Idk what you get for randomly banning people without rationale

Aside from self-satisfaction

But in a real talk case people will resent you and render you a pariah

[olive horizon]

Ban dOk

[robust vapor]

I hope you muster enough intelligence first man

[mental delta]

Lol it's eventually ending up when he inevitably bans himself

[tawny carbon]

That would be dope

Perma ban his own IP on purpose

[mental delta]

Dude about to cyber attack his own adress

[royal trail]

so i got a new tv with good hdr, less latency than my pc monitor and 120hz 4k instead of 60hz 4k. but with hdr on i cant seem to see the enemies with the new really low blacks and contrast in colors. is this something that will get better in time when you get used to it or should i turn off hdr?

[patent pivot]

HDR isn't generally good for gaming

Especially for high pace game

[quaint vector]

Turn off HDR. I never had great experience with it..

[royal trail]

aight, thanks

[still vault]

Have you run the Windows HDR calibration tool?

[royal trail]

ye, it gave the screen extreme blacks and really good contrast, i also turned on a feature that change the tvs settings optimal to the games hdr mode

it looks amazing but i perform way worse than on my pc monitor

[still vault]

HDR was never about performance. It was about being pretty.

[royal trail]

true

[quaint vector]

Why my HDR experience was never pretty then...

Console & PC as well

[royal trail]

i had to change a couple of settings on my tv for it to look as good in pc/game mode as on the built in movie mode for tv and netflix apps etc

[remote kiln]

get better
tldr, no, this is by design - the HDR gamut makes blacks black, not a dark gray-scale on RGB since that it is how they should be presented, you have a few options around this, Nvidia have a HDR converter tool which will make the blacks more viewable, alternatively you can change the gamut curve to 2.4 on windows calibration with a ICC profile (this is a bit of a headache though)

[royal trail]

alright

[remote kiln]

I'm not sure why people are saying it's bad for gaming, it definitely isnt

[royal trail]

ill experiment with it on and off and try to change settings abit more then

[vital mauve]

when is season 7

[quiet wing]

[olive horizon]

Ive seen a video few months ago someone said after you buy a monitor with hdr you have to change some sittings idk what they are but you can probably find them

[royal trail]

What do y’all think the best gun in the game is

[quaint vector]

There are more good weapons

[olive horizon]

What kind of weapon do you want

[subtle cliff]

Something that can kill fast at close and medium rang

[olive horizon]

Mcs is op at close range great shotgun

VHX, AEK AND GEW are good AS

What's the best vehicle in 2042

Pondhawk!

[spare pasture]

M1A5

[kindred quarry]

Tanks are ridiculous unless it's a cram

[quaint vector]

Nightbird

[royal trail]

isnt vhx pretty good allround still?

[kindred quarry]

Condor

I wonder if the next season has new vehicles

[patent pivot]

GUNSHIP

[olive horizon]

Yes

[kindred quarry]

We already have gunships!

[patent pivot]

Hind doesn't count as one

[kindred quarry]

True true

[patent pivot]

I want the real gunship

[olive horizon]

There’s no answer for this question it depends on what you’re good at

[kindred quarry]

Whats your favorite?

[kindred quarry]

Me too

[patent pivot]

And MISSILE

[kindred quarry]

I wonder if they'll introduce mortars

[olive horizon]

I don’t like vehicles tbh but anything with the incendiary grenades to burn the bots

[analog ocean]

Do you guys know anyone who mains the defibs as their secondary weapon? Just curious whether someone has a high defib kill count

[vital quail]

Idk anyone who mains but I once spent a tdm match with another medic and we used it only for kills

[vital quail]

I dont play portal game modes but there is a mortar from bc2 in game

[dreamy topaz]

Is there a way to tone down the bloom through graphic settings? Trying to see anything on maps like exposure is giving me some serious eye strain

[analog ocean]

That’s also how I was introduced to it, pretty fun. Also pretty underrated

[quaint vector]

Turn Off things like Motion Blur, Film Grain, Vignette...

[dreamy topaz]

Already did all of those. Absolutely no effect on the bloom.

[quaint vector]

On what settings are you playing.?

[dreamy topaz]

Ultra. Tried lowering preset and even specific settings but nothing changed when it came to the bloom effect

[quaint vector]

Is your DLSS set to Ultra performance.? Or do you use it at all.?

[wintry ember]

Anyone wanna play bf2042 ps4 version dm me need people who can communicate

[dreamy topaz]

It's set to performance. I tried turning it off but it had no difference. I guess it's just a quirk of Exposure as it's less of an issue on other maps.

I play on 1440p High with DLSS to performance and I don't have any Bloom..

[chilly jacinth]

pretty sure he just means the sun is blinding

[dreamy topaz]

Yes, the bloom effect of when the game seems to be confusing you to be indoors when you're outdoors. https://files.catbox.moe/ummdpy.jpg

[quaint vector]

That's probably Exposure being Exposure

[still vault]

You are in the shadow looking out at very bright light, seems good enough

[silk surge]

SVK is so disgustingly underrated.. Holy fuck is that gun insane

I haven't seen the stats, but I feel like that gun must have one of the lowest TTKs in the game.

[dreamy topaz]

2-shots at a ridiculous range, it's pretty good. Shakes your screen more than an MBT with each shot though

[novel crystal]

What do you guys think about this shotgun streak gentleman And of course ladies?

https://youtu.be/F9dVIjZg3LA?si=1jKdEVk1MBKWgZ0-

Yeah I use it as medic so I have unlimited ammo too

[gilded goblet]

Vcar is the best dmr

Svk and other dmrs is over rated

[gilded goblet]

DM7 is great still

[gilded goblet]

16 more to start oof

[frozen loom]

I was the only one going after objectives.

[gilded goblet]

The NVK-P125 is a nice change of pace from the G27.

No balls.

Nobody likes that revolver?

[frozen loom]

No one has time to aim that thing.

[patent pivot]

Better than m44

Mainly no need to flick the lever

[fresh lintel]

DM7 I used to hate because haha 3 shot body shot

Then I T1d it. And then used the VCAR, which is everything I hated about the DM7 turned up to 11.

However I dont hate them anymore.

[gilded goblet]

i use g57 or the deagle

[frozen loom]

The VCAR is pretty good.

[fresh lintel]

The Deagle is just objectively better IMO.

Not to say the M44 is bad. But the extra range it has over the deagle is meaningless when I can pump out more shots at range faster.

Its still fucking euphoric to one shot someone from a ways away with the M44 though.

[woven sonnet]

AC9 is fun

[next onyx]

Just use the deagle if you're using the m44.

P125 is an amazing side arm though.

[placid echo]

That's a compelling argument...

However https://streamable.com/03rchg

[tawny carbon]

Best dmr

[plush echo]

Nice clip

[next onyx]

Thing is though.

I've used the m44 quite a bit.

I understand its niche. But in doing so you trade it for a lot of versatility.

[summer lake]

What set up do you use?

[gilded goblet]

for u sure

[sour meadow]

bf tubers are still making "2042 is good now" videos?

[pine roost]

I’m tempted to repeat what they’ve all done just to annoy you

[sour meadow]

also RIP Lehto's BF project

they better be a good fucking reason why he bailed from EA

[maiden bridge]

Enders is best bf yt

[sour meadow]

ew no

[maiden bridge]

???

[sour meadow]

guy is annoying

[pine roost]

Last time I looked into it people weren’t sure that he left, is it confirmed that he left or was it just a title change in the end?

[mystic current]

Is there a way to get the AI in single player to respawn immediately?

[sour meadow]

i mean he scrubbed all references to EA from his social media

[pine roost]

Dang

Wonder what that means for the rest of it

I know a lot of folks had good faith in him

[sour meadow]

surely the next game will be a hit now

this franchise is fucking cursed

[arctic grove]

I just hope whatever he had planned is gonna be sent off to the rest of ridgeline and be used as guidance

[pine roost]

It’s annoying that this is the first time I’ve been able to properly play from launch and watch every update, and it just so happens to be the most confusing few years

[sour meadow]

they'll make something solid and then EA will ruin it because EA are a bunch of c*nts

[pine roost]

And is it too much to hope that the feedback from this title is applied from the get go

[sour meadow]

i haven't played 2042 since July because i lost interest. i saw the resurgance of players in Season 6 which was nice but i didn't feel like playing

but from what i can see for now?

RIP battlefield

[pine roost]

Fortunately I’m still enjoying it

But I hardly play it consistently

Put more time into drg than bf, but I still like it

But this feels like the first time where I can’t think of any glaring issues

[fresh lintel]

Ecouples on my last gen 🤢

[tawny carbon]

Ew

[fresh lintel]

There needs to be dedicated and invul AA turrets in maps because having two attack helis with similar loadouts just spawn camp your team is just cancer.

Especially since Stingers are shit useless and give away your position.

Free fires arent reliable.

Buffing AH's was kinda a fucking mistake.

[gilded goblet]

fr

[fresh lintel]

Also the spawns should be no go zones and should have a 5 second timer

[lavish stag]

Finally we close to season 7

[tawny carbon]

[lavish stag]

I just love how dice trademarked the soon word 🤣🤣

[tawny carbon]

thats from division discord

[lavish stag]

Nah I saw dice once message a update with soon trademarked. As in “soon meaning far away!”

[tawny carbon]

lol

[ebon pilot]

Soon™️ meaning "we don't know"

[gilded goblet]

soon meaing we don't give a fuck we r dice

we got so much money

[ebon pilot]

we say soon™️ a lot at my company and it's mostly to say "no set date, it'll release when it releases"

but we also don't make games we make cloud services

[gilded goblet]

The enemy has ascended beyond your control or was that your intention?

[gilded goblet]

that laugh at the end

[gilded goblet]

?

[next onyx]

The piece of music that I was playing in the background.

It's from modded terraria.

[gilded goblet]

didn't really hear it

[pine roost]

They have managed to demolish whatever we’ve made, but you’re failing to comprehend

A friend of mine says he hates boss music with vocals, that song is my counter point

Even though I’ve never gotten to the boss the soundtrack is just too good 💀

[next onyx]

I don't mind it but it takes a bit to warm up to it.

[next onyx]

Oh yeah on topic here's Yharon exploding in 5000 chicken nuggets.

I think the devourers of gods music just hits so damn hard.

I think vocals in a terraria theme is definitely bizarre but the music is good.

I wonder what could ever have happened

[gilded goblet]

idk

[next onyx]

I don't play it as much right now anyways cause I'm burned out to hell on it.

I just had a feeling to kill some people and play it today but I was mostly mucking around.

The game doesn't really offer much.

[gilded goblet]

ye

[next onyx]

No service stars.

Service stars would honestly go a very long way.

The only reason why I was having fun was because I was playing something different.

[woven sonnet]

I get on the game for 2 months leave it for 3 and repeat

But the new pc and performance makes it fun to play

[next onyx]

How does visual silk feel.

It's so fucked.

Going to 120 frames for the first time the actual game doesn't change in speed.

But everything becomes so much faster.

[woven sonnet]

oh I mean I was like 120-170fps before

now I dont drop below 200 fps on redacted anymore

[next onyx]

Here's the thing. 30 frames is sandpaper, 60 is like the cloth from your sewing shop and then with 120 to 165+ it's actual like running your hand through genuine silk.

Ahhhh I see.

[woven sonnet]

I cant play below 100 anymore

[next onyx]

I can work with lower frame rates when the game is made around it.

[woven sonnet]

its been years of not using 60hz in anyform

[next onyx]

PSP games I know run on 30 frames. I can deal with that.

BEcause that's how the game was built.

But when there's the option to. 120 frames.

BY THE WAY

Get ultrakill and see how many frames you get. :D

I hit 1100.

[woven sonnet]

My phone, my ipad, my laptop, my pc everything has 120hz+ screen and i been using it for 2-3 years same with games 90% of them were running at 100+ even before so I am way too used to high fps

[next onyx]

Dude.

The fact that my fold ran on 120 frames.

That is fucking

It's the weirdest.

[woven sonnet]

haha

[next onyx]

I care more for the power of what it's capable of.

But god I miss my phone.

I went back to my A22 and it feels like it goes through a stroke doing the most basic things.

[woven sonnet]

I played warframe max settings at 1440p and got the lowest dips into high 300 fps and avrg like 500

7800x3d and 4080

[next onyx]

You should get ultrakill in general.

Yeah that makes sense.

[woven sonnet]

yee i heard its fast paced

[next onyx]

I was thinking of getting a 4080 but I don't need it?

I dunno.

A 4080 would be an upgrade over my 3080 but I don't think I'll be happy buying it.

Ultrakill is brilliant. It makes you a good player.

[woven sonnet]

i was on a 3080 and the difference is amazing

perfectly quiet pc now

[next onyx]

I'll wait for a 5080 to be honest.

I dunno.

It really depends.

[woven sonnet]

i got the 4080 at a good price from work

[next onyx]

When I get a tax return I'm thinking of buying some PC hardware and if I can spare the expense I will.

Oh yeah.

[woven sonnet]

the thing is when is it going to launch like 1.5 years? maybe 2?

then its still rng if its available…

[next onyx]

It's a weird spot.

[woven sonnet]

my friends waited for the 4080 super and they are all cooked now cuz they are barely available here in switzerland

[next onyx]

I can get an XTX for 1500 AUD.

Which isn't bad.

There was even a 4080 for 1600 but.

That's when I decided eh.

[woven sonnet]

ohh yea xtx great if you dont plan on ray tracing

[next onyx]

Deco has a 4080 and in his experience it's way less of a headache over the XTX.

DLAA, Better encoding, etc.

[woven sonnet]

i loved the efficiency and over engineered coolers + ya the feature set of 40s is great

i use DLDSR a lot

with the spare headroom

like even under max power draw like 114% above tdp i can leave my fans on lowest settings and enjoy a card in the mid 60s to mid 70s depends on the sensor

[next onyx]

That sounds super nice wow.

[woven sonnet]

this with the low TDP of the 7800x3d makes the pc mega quiet

[next onyx]

I do like that with PC's you can just remove a graphics card, store it and use it later when your newer one has a stroke.

Your PC runs as hot as mine.

I have a 5800x3d and a 3080.

Our PC's essentially run as hot as each other.

[woven sonnet]

i could run it cooler but no need too tbh rather have it quieter

[next onyx]

Don't really need to run it cooler.

[woven sonnet]

makes it more enjoyable when using open back headsets

yee

[next onyx]

I don't think noise really matters mostly.

To me it just means that what I'm playing is a hot game.

You have headphones on, you're not going to hear it.

[woven sonnet]

openback u will tbh (when there isnt much noise)

[next onyx]

It's really nice to see GPU's become a little cheaper again.

[woven sonnet]

yess for sure

pc been feeling really snappy in general with some optimization

[golden herald]

Am i the only one that using the ntw-50 as a shotgun?

[quaint vector]

No, I use it on Stranded BT cuz enemies are so campy there

1x optic and quick scoping them

[golden herald]

I use iron sight

getting these 60 ribbons was a pain

[mental delta]

Yeah it improved technically talking and gameplay is funnier but game is boring af, a content lacking shithole imo

[dusk falcon]

very sad indeed

[mental delta]

I didn't even try it this season

[dusk falcon]

hopefully s7 kicks it out of the park

[mental delta]

I didn't want to buy PS Plus for no new content

[mental delta]

It's gonna feature 2 maps but probably the 2nd one being dropped mid-season, so after 3 months if new season lasts for 6 months again

[dusk falcon]

nah the 2nd map imo is the stadium from doha

cause the blip in the teaser was near qatar

a map in a map

jesus christ

[mental delta]

Lol no please, imagine if they teased a "new map" as just a partial rework for some already existing map

[dusk falcon]

please let it be bahrain urban map

that would be so cool

[mental delta]

Really ? Never got that, I recall seeing the 2 locations in some post on Twitter but never found those again

[dusk falcon]

the christmas teaser, it has 2 maps

one was the one in the recent teaser

the other was near doha

so its either

the stadium from hourglass
or
bahrain

[mental delta]

What's Bahrain ?

I recall said teaser now lol

[kindred quarry]

Join

[dusk falcon]

someones not smart in geography

[mental delta]

Join what ?

[dusk falcon]

manmade island near doha

[kindred quarry]

2042

It's the future with pondhawks

[mental delta]

I know what Bahrain is and where it is but I mean you said it like it was a Battlefield map's name, has there ever been any map situated in Bahrain lol ?

[dusk falcon]

nope

it would be new which is nice

oh to fight in the streets of manama

[mental delta]

Ho ok lol, I was surprised

Yeah I agree

Panama is under-exploited in FPS games

Would be perfect for a BF map

Can feature land, air and sea combat

[tacit sphinx]

we literally have a map set in panama

[pine roost]

Welp I guess that’s it, Marcus has actually left, not just changed title

[dusty lantern]

Hi, has anyone made dldsr work for bf2042? The setting doesn't appear in my control panel

[quaint vector]

[dusty lantern]

Well nevermind, setting it to enabled globally made it work. I just couldn't get it to show up on a per application basis

[buoyant marsh]

I'm confused was DICE part of embark or the other way around?

[chilly jacinth]

neither

Embark is a new studio made by former DICE devs

[buoyant marsh]

Oh got it

What should I do to get better at takedowns. I want the crossbow

[drowsy shuttle]

just run towards people and spam the melee key, eventually it will trigger the takedown animation

[chilly jacinth]

play Dozer

[buoyant marsh]

My current strat is riot shield run up break the shit out of their ankles then takedown doesn't work half the time tho

[mental delta]

You dare calling that Panama when there's not even a little bit of water ?

[chilly jacinth]

basically what will happen in the future

so yes

[mental delta]

I agree but I'd like a map with more water

Playing in a dry canal wasn't as fun as they planned

Not the worst map though

Just not the best either lol

[pine roost]

Is kaleidoscope not enough water for you

[patent path]

Yes, I left EA on my own accord.
This was very a tough decision for me to make.

I want to thank the Battlefield community for allowing me to listen to you while I was able. Your feedback will help make Battlefield stronger.
I wish the teams at EA all the best moving forward.

I'm guessing there will be a new Ridgeline head then?

[remote kiln]

probably means the project he was heading is well underway

[patent path]

yeah, finished what he was doing at ridgeline then retired

[stone cradle]

Then I guess it was a coincidence the co-founder also left around the same time?

And joined 343

[patent path]

could be related

[stone cradle]

[patent path]

your friend is retiring, project is finishing, might as well go do something else

[remote kiln]

hes been in the games industry for a very long time

[stone cradle]

Yeah, one of the creators of Master Chief.

[half moon]

so, what is the point of a short range thermal sight if you cant see through smokes

[pine roost]

To see better in denser foliage

[royal swan]

To not be op

[half moon]

fair enough

so is there any sight that actually can see through smokes

ive been beamed to a random corner through a smoke so goddamn many times

[royal swan]

Probably cheaters

[quaint vector]

Imagine playing against campers with 6x thermal that are covered in smoke...

[half moon]

nah, they were usually in the low/mid end of the scoreboard, its just like one or two times per match

[remote kiln]

no but youre not invulnerable through smoke, your ping marker can still be seen

[half moon]

is that so

[royal swan]

Oh Paik can legally wall hack and see you through smoke but it's in very very short burst and requires close range

[half moon]

recon?

oh that cunt, i see

[royal swan]

During launch she was busted and that continued until s2

Now she was nerfed to the ground

And I believe she is a bit balanced, still believe she shouldn't be in the game

[dusk falcon]

nah shes fine

shes just a buffed prox sensor

[patent pivot]

The EBR doesn't have a silencer because it's either op or dice themselves

[torpid moon]

I started playing recently and would like to unlock the GOL Sniper.
Is there a way to speed this up? SOFLAM unlocks until rank 56

And the SOFLAM from BC2 does not work or something

[remote kiln]

there isnt, you need to level up

[torpid moon]

Alrighty then

[ebon pilot]

The Scatter Grenade should now correctly track its progression.
It... was broken?

[remote kiln]

was for a while

[plush echo]

Paik on redacted is so fun lol

[gilded goblet]

nothing on redacted it fun..........

https://tenor.com/view/sad-gif-7523306793289960933

It's for score grind

[strong snow]

https://x.com/insidergamingig/status/1762590172456104443?s=46

[plush echo]

Eh maybe for you but sometimes it’s manageable

[gilded goblet]

sometimes

[arctic grove]

The next Battlefield is on the horizon.....welp here we go again 😂

I hope the next game is like bf3/bf5 combined

[torpid wadi]

I hope it’s set in 1812

[arctic grove]

Revolutionary war 😂

Muskets 😬

[torpid wadi]

Yes

[ivory canopy]

EA DICE should add the Zip 22 pistol to BF2042 as an April Fools' prank

[torpid wadi]

Opium wars plz dice

[tacit canyon]

what u guys think will be the last season

for 2042

[ivory canopy]

Homefront

[torpid wadi]

Ehh 8

Think they’re gonna wrap up the plot soonish

We are going onto 7 right?

Honestly maybe 9

[tacit canyon]

i saw that thing on twitter with the pan america broadcast

[ivory canopy]

Two maps, one in the U.S, one in Russia. Oz's mercenaries vs. the countries' militaries

[tacit canyon]

didnt make sense to me

[arctic grove]

Season 10 will probably be the last imho

Even number

[ivory canopy]

I don't know if there'll be a season 10

[torpid wadi]

It’s implying that there is a group sponsoring revolts all around the world

[tacit canyon]

but when i saw the other loading screen i remembered that mini exodus movie bf launched on yt a while back

[torpid wadi]

I presume Chile is one of these locations

[gilded goblet]

and a bit of 1

[arctic grove]

True

[gilded goblet]

it is

comfirmed

[ivory canopy]

I still am a bit salty they stopped at 14 specialists.

[gilded goblet]

bruh

[tacit canyon]

when i saw the reveal on twitter i thought thats mexico 100%

[gilded goblet]

nah mexico orange

[tacit canyon]

but SIIIIKE

[gilded goblet]

chillie yellow

[tacit canyon]

its pan america

[torpid wadi]

One guy thought I was an idiot after I kept saying the map leak was of Ireland lol

[gilded goblet]

brrrooooo

[ivory canopy]

Where tf are the vault weapons?

[tacit canyon]

I got an idea for a new specialist: falks lost son she keeps bringing up in her lore

[gilded goblet]

in the collection?

[tacit canyon]

or maybe irishs son

[gilded goblet]

use ur eyes

[ivory canopy]

I don't think that'd thematically work tbh

[ashen siren]

Does anyone else think it's weird they've built this narrative with the specialists, oz, etc? Without single-player storyline, there's no proper background to them or what's really happened. It's just implied...

[gilded goblet]

hhhmmm yes the granys son

[gilded goblet]

yeah bit werid

i get BO4 vibes

[tacit canyon]

WHERE IS THAT LIL SHIT THEN

[gilded goblet]

chill

[arctic grove]

The next Battlefield game will probably be in the same universe as 2042

[tacit canyon]

2043

[gilded goblet]

most likely

[gilded goblet]

[tacit canyon]

this time with a campaign

[ivory canopy]

They might add a voice clip from David on one of the maps.

[arctic grove]

So my theory is it could be 2043

[ivory canopy]

Or, they should tbh

[ashen siren]

I really hope they plant it in the real world, with none of this froghopper, walking dog garbage

[gilded goblet]

my theory is that it'll be another BF game

[tacit canyon]

i wish they would bring something like bf 4 back u know

nothing tooooo futuristic

[ivory canopy]

I hope it's a good game at launch.

[ashen siren]

I'm amazed they stopped short of putting jet-pack/jumpsuits in lol

[gilded goblet]

yeah well 2042 isn't

[tacit canyon]

Bad Company 3

[gilded goblet]

https://tenor.com/view/battlefield2042-battlefield-german-soldier-gif-23924277

[ivory canopy]

I have no faith in a BC3 being good.

[olive horizon]

When will they deal with the hackers bro the same hacker have been hunting me for days and everyone says they’re reporting but nothing happened

[tacit canyon]

thats a cod thing and it killed the franchise

[gilded goblet]

PC issue

[arctic grove]

DICE ain't going to do that sadly

[tacit canyon]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[ivory canopy]

BF2042 launch was so rancid. Who's to say the next BF won't be as bad or even worse at launch?

[arctic grove]

Broken promises

[olive horizon]

I play on ps5 but i have no choice the game is dead without cross play

[tacit canyon]

BC 2 ended with such a cliffhanger

[ashen siren]

I remember playing that campaign with a mate and we were like "what the actual f*ck is going on?!"

[gilded goblet]

may be better

[ivory canopy]

I hope.

[gilded goblet]

i get no hackers on ps5

[olive horizon]

Cross play he is a pc player

[gilded goblet]

[ivory canopy]

That all said, the game's improved significantly since launch day, which is good at least.

[tacit canyon]

BO3? yeah had no idea what was going on in that game campaign wise. there was more story in zombies

[gilded goblet]

fr

[gilded goblet]

BO3 zombies was mid

i got to round 124

[ashen siren]

PC servers in Aus would be completely dead without crossplay tbh...I can't remember the last time I've seen a match that hasn't had bots in it, and console players make up the majority.

[tacit canyon]

maybe dice makes the dino mode in the new bf game

[gilded goblet]

never again

[ivory canopy]

But still seems quo that EA DICE launch a game then make it playable, and often takes a while to make it good.

[gilded goblet]

no no no

[gilded goblet]

watch enders video on it

funny as fuck

[ivory canopy]

I was there at launch day (my name in this server checks out).

[gilded goblet]

[olive horizon]

In asia they’re more than dead it’s impossible to get a single player in the lobby without cross play

[gilded goblet]

[gilded goblet]

oof

[tacit canyon]

But how would it be then? like 64 players just trying to survive against big ass dinos while throwing thousands of grenades shooting billions of bullets and launching hundreds of missiles at godzilla?

[ashen siren]

Even with crossplay, sometimes I have to wait AGES just to get play...not enough minimum number of players to even start a game (that will be filled with bots)

[gilded goblet]

Warzone event PTSD

[tacit canyon]

but better cause dino

and battlefield

[olive horizon]

They should make an option to change the server region

[tacit canyon]

never had any issues on EU

[tacit canyon]

just join a friend which lives on another server region

if u have the connection

[olive horizon]

Yes i usually play portal it’s full of hackers but at least i can play something

[gilded goblet]

AU be chiiling

[tacit canyon]

portal? full of hackers?

wtf

[olive horizon]

All my friends live in the same continent

[gilded goblet]

haven't played it in ages

[ashen siren]

ABSOLUTELY!!! BF4 and BF1 had this option (not sure about BF5 tbh), and it was great. Not having this feature in BF 2042 is a pain in the arse...jump in, wait, not enough players, back out again, try again in a different mode, rinse and repeat. Such an easy fix!

[olive horizon]

Yes the ones that almost full

[tacit canyon]

ok

[patent pivot]

Because this game doesn't have server browser

Only portal

[olive horizon]

It’s disappointing

[olive horizon]

Like hosts?

[tacit canyon]

i guess

[ashen siren]

I know that, but they really should have kept that feature, because it's useful for areas of the world that aren't the Freedomland (USA)

[tacit canyon]

if u wanna join eu just look for a german server in portal

there are so much tbh

[patent pivot]

I'm just there for redacted

[olive horizon]

Or at least when someone get reported 100 times in one minute they should get banned

[tacit canyon]

breakthrough on redacted is goat

ok imma head of to sleep now have a chill time bois n grills

[ashen siren]

I think I ought to play on Portal more often...only done it a few times and it was surprisingly good fun

[patent pivot]

I suppose you can't tier 1 in portal

[plucky umbra]

anyone tryna play crossplay version?

Get these control ribbons

[bitter mulch]

👀

The Fresh rumours from Tom are spicy

[shell ermine]

So glad 128p matches are donezo

[woven sonnet]

i forgot how much range weapos have in this game

just half the game

half the players half the map half the weapons range

[ashen siren]

Play Control, and 3/4 of the players are sitting back with sniper rifles...it's a disaster.

[sour meadow]

omfg i am so sick of this want for a bf battle royale

and it always comes from the same 2 fucking people

westie and jack

[sour meadow]

nobody wants a fucking battle royale

EA can't even make a decent bf game

they even scared Lehto away ffs

[ashen siren]

Battle Royale can get in the bin. If I wanted to play that, I'd be on Apex, CoD, etc. Focus instead on building a solid BF game!

[tawny carbon]

I want a BR, battlefield style also hazard zone is extraction royal not battle royale.

Extraction royale is the best royale

[sour meadow]

but don't make it the main stay of the game

it's clear Warzone and Fornite are the Royale kings

they are untouchable

[tawny carbon]

Hazard zone is extraction based tho

[ashen siren]

They are welcome to make it, but ffs don't prioritise development for it

[sour meadow]

yea and it's dead

[tawny carbon]

Ok what’s the point?

[sour meadow]

the point is no one cares about a bf extraction game

[ashen siren]

I've never played Hazard Zone...never been enough players to get into a game, and it's not something I'm particularly interested in.

[tawny carbon]

I honestly love hazard zone over WZ or apex

[sour meadow]

if they want extraction they're gonna play EFT or Hunt Showdown

or whatever COD's version is

[tawny carbon]

EFT is bad

[sour meadow]

so is hazard zone

but at least EFT was made from the ground up to be an extraction game

it wasn't tacked on at the last second

[bitter mulch]

If done right BF can compete

[sour meadow]

yes

if done right

but EA keeps chasing trends because they're greedy c*nts

[tawny carbon]

Extraction royale isn’t battle royale tho

[bitter mulch]

And? So are other games. They have enough studios for that

[woven sonnet]

thios game is just a mess tbh delete it so players go back to bf 4

[sour meadow]

tbh firestorm was cool but that $60 paywall was instant death

[bitter mulch]

True, it was more intense than warzone

[sour meadow]

firestorm was unique

[tawny carbon]

How? Free games means more cheaters leads into unhappy player base

[sour meadow]

where did free games come from

[tawny carbon]

You said paywall. Thats the difference

[sour meadow]

oh

tbh idk how to handle cheaters

it's at its worst

i mean the $60 paywell did help with cheaters but it also killed the gamemode entirely

[tawny carbon]

Not really. That’s the community.

Community don’t like extra on a normal battlefield game

2042 did succeed well due to the community diss on it very hard when it dropped.

[sour meadow]

but you want an extraction mode

[arctic grove]

No, let’s just get a battlefield game that focuses on the core gameplay

[tawny carbon]

Yes because I like it better than your standard average battle royale

[arctic grove]

And yes im aware unfortunately rumors speculate there will be a free BR in the next game

[woven sonnet]

BRs are dead

[tawny carbon]

Extraction is better tho. BRs is lame ngl

[remote kiln]

there is nothing about what is in the next game lol

maybe on Reddit

[sour meadow]

there has to be a reason to want extraction

[remote kiln]

or whatever unreliable narrator

[sour meadow]

thought you were mrbeast for a second

[remote kiln]

thought?

you found me

[sour meadow]

ay could you break some off for me

[tawny carbon]

Extraction, you can leave at any time. It’s more intense to me due to players know where the locations is at. Set for camping all game to be in first place.

[arctic grove]

That’s why I never really got into the dark zone on division as an example

Extraction zone campers

[tawny carbon]

That’s way different

That’s not royale mode

[sour meadow]

there has to be a tangible reason to want to keep playing an extraction royale.

[arctic grove]

Oh yeah I know what you mean, im just generally commenting

[fresh lintel]

Control is really proving that DICE doesn't do quality checks on their maps tbh

[arctic grove]

I mean I don’t think BF needs or should pursue either tho

[sour meadow]

i'd love if the next game is about Vietnam

that's one setting i haven't experienced in a bf game

[fresh lintel]

Wasnt it a BC2 Expansion?

[gilded goblet]

i would love if it's good

[sour meadow]

yea but i'm too young for that

i never got to play it

[tawny carbon]

Extraction royale is great in battlefield, they just have to find the right method. 2042 version, I enjoyed ngl. I just feel like they can do more and better at it.

[sour meadow]

make a Vietnam game and give it the same love and care that bf1 got

and you'll have a banger

[arctic grove]

I used to think another Vietnam battlefield wouldn’t work cause you’d have like 3 maps but apparently battlefield Vietnam had like 10 or something which is decent lol

I would more so like Vietnam in a bigger Cold War scenario game

[fresh lintel]

Eh fair. I personally dont like the vietnam setting. It and WW2 feels way too overdone.

And I kinda fucking hate Coldwar era shit

[sour meadow]

i mean what else is there

US civil war?

[remote kiln]

they would be senile to make the next game not non modern

[woven sonnet]

uhn just dont base it on something real

[remote kiln]

maybe the game after this but certainly not the next title

[arctic grove]

Avoid civil war for

well, obvious reasons

[tawny carbon]

I hope for the next BF title to be modern setting with some futuristic tech like how 2042/BF4 is.

[arctic grove]

[ebon pilot]

confusing double negative

[sour meadow]

what if they just made another BF3 era game

[remote kiln]

that's the intention

glad somebody noticed

[sour meadow]

like 2000's era Middle East conflict

[woven sonnet]

no

[ebon pilot]

because that's soo 2010s

[woven sonnet]

i want jetpacks in the next game

4020

in space

[ebon pilot]

you should play Titanfall

[arctic grove]

I unironically think a space battlefield could go hard though

[tawny carbon]

Play Infinite or advanced warfare from cod

[ebon pilot]

hey dice where's my Titanfall x Battlefield game

[remote kiln]

it exists, battlefield 2142

[woven sonnet]

dead game

[remote kiln]

though I wouldn't be opposed to a successor

[tawny carbon]

Duh, it’s old asf

[arctic grove]

Fair enough

Yeah, like a successor or remake in a sense

[ebon pilot]

2142 has titans, but it doesn't have wall running, double jumping, pilot sniping action

[tawny carbon]

It’s great on PC before Activision killed the modding community.

[remote kiln]

you watch too many nostalgia videos about Titanfall 2 waiting on Titanfall 3 I can tell

[woven sonnet]

just reduce the size of the game in the sens of map, players, weapon range etc I love mapping people 100m+ with a AR I mean ik its realistic but still

[ebon pilot]

you assume too much

[remote kiln]

is it wrong?

[ebon pilot]

I don't watch vids but I did put 800 hours into TF2

[remote kiln]

80% the way there

[tawny carbon]

TF3 is not gonna happen. Respawn killed it for Apex

[olive horizon]

I will let the janitor at EA know

[remote kiln]

it's not dead, dead

[arctic grove]

It’s realistic but I always find it funny how people defend goofy skins because a game is “arcadey”, then will say some shit like that

[woven sonnet]

the game should be arcedy its not a milsim

[remote kiln]

Titanfall 3 was shelved and was in development for around a year, it was never fully killed off as most seem to think

[arctic grove]

Like yes 1 regular 5.56 bullet is lethal to like 3-600 meters but that’s not seriously gonna work in any fps lol (unless it’s obviously milsim but those games play totally differently as a result)

[remote kiln]

priorities just changed

[tawny carbon]

Respawn did say it will end up being alike TF2. So essentially a copy pasta

[woven sonnet]

why bro I shot my SG550 400m iron sights

[remote kiln]

incremental, they were saying it wasn't going to be as revolutionary as Titanfall 2 was in terms of impact they were making

[naive magnet]

Arica harbor on control is completely terrible

[tawny carbon]

True

[naive magnet]

RU side has such an advantage it’s not even fair haha

[ivory canopy]

It's worse when you're placed on a team that makes no attempt.

[tawny carbon]

I still thing TF3 won’t happen at all. Apex is generating them a shit ton of money

[naive magnet]

Not only do majority of points spawn on their side, but the fact they have cover from 100 buildings while the US has to fight uphill with basically no cover is horrible

[tawny carbon]

At most they will add titans in Apex and call it a day

[remote kiln]

titans definitely aren't being added to the game, they've talked about it before

zampella has said it's only a matter of time till they return to Titanfall, it's just a matter of it being the right one (when apex doesn't consume everything at respawn)

[tawny carbon]

Mmm 🤔

So they are waiting till it dies out basically

[remote kiln]

kinda sorta

more to do with project priorities

respawn are developing single player star wars title IPs aswell, there just isn't capacity there to build a new Titanfall rn

[ashen siren]

Omg lastnight that was a real thing! Lone wolf's just screwing around and making no attempt whatsoever. Don't even get me started on medics just running on by without a care in the world...infuriating!

[fresh lintel]

Dice also needs to work on their servers because I shouldnt be dying in a single shot from a BSV, SFAR and the likes.

Never happened until Season 6.

Like I know its a Latency/Clientside thing but like I said, this shit never really happened till this season.

[tawny carbon]

I wish Anthem received its 2.0 update

One thing I don’t like about respawn. Is that, the 2.0 was close to being done to release. Then they pulled the plug.

[ebon pilot]

Anthem was fucking BioWare

[tawny carbon]

My bad 😞

[fresh lintel]

Banned

Lmao

Respawn is Apex/Titanfall. Except i dont think they care about Titanfall anymore since all they do now is go "Haha guys look a Titanfall reference in the Apex universe!"

Like just say titanfall is dead at this point.

[tawny carbon]

Basically

[remote kiln]

except that they updated Titanfall 2 last year lol

[tawny carbon]

After a decade later

[remote kiln]

was closer to 5, the game already had dlc released, it didn't cease support at launch

[ivory canopy]

4 mastery tiers remaining on Zain for the T1

[mental delta]

Lads what happened ?

What are the leaks

Deco tell me

Someone please

[remote kiln]

there's no leaks afaik lol

[mental delta]

Some pricks on Twitter said otherwise

Apparently some BR experience for next game leaked

[remote kiln]

.. don't believe Reddit/twitter, should be fairly straightforward

[tawny carbon]

I don’t believe it till Dice officially says it

[mental delta]

According to @Tom_Henderson, the next Battlefield game is set to include a free-to-play Battle Royale game mode.

This will come alongside a return to classic 64-player matches, 4 classes and an overhaul of the destruction systems.

Lmao it's so over

If it's true of course

Which wouldn't surprise me

[ashen siren]

4 classes makes gameplay more balanced imo...specialists can easily be made overpowered

[mental delta]

I guess so but as Dice nor EA won't give any infos about it I gotta find leaks

[remote kiln]

if it's tom Henderson then that's not some nobody saying it but treat with speculation

[mental delta]

That's the only good point in that shit, classes return is just necessary at this point

[hearty flame]

On one hand, its Tom so he's only as accurate as his leakers. On the other hand maybe DICE has learned their lesson. On the other other hand, its DICE

[remote kiln]

Henderson was right about this game so, he has weight it's not some random user, so it has more credibility in terms of potentially being true

but treat with speculation

[mental delta]

Dice has learned their lesson
We doin a lil bit of trollin as I can see ?

[torpid wadi]

Wouldn’t make mind if they kept 128 players an option

So long as the maps are actually interesting enough for it

[ashen siren]

Exactly. The specialist thing was poorly thought out, and was clearly open to exploitation, and they've never really managed to balance things out. Not allowing certain weapon categories for each specialist would be easy to do, but never materialised.

[hearty flame]

its the same with all leaks no? gotta take it with some salt. could be real, could be trying to hype, could be lying

[mental delta]

Wasn't that right though, he said tens of things and some were right but we need to recall this dude said BF 2021 would have a solo campaign in Eastern Europe with SAS operators helping local resistance against Russian forces

[ebon pilot]

They've never managed to balance any game

[tawny carbon]

After the specialist system rework for 2042. I wouldn’t say it’s overpowered

[mental delta]

So fucking true, if the 64 players part is true I'm disappointed, 128 players isn't bad at all, it's just that BF2042 map design and balancing suck ass lmao

[ashen siren]

There's always rumours...I don't give them any attention. Until day 1 has kicked off, everything is pure speculation and marketing bs

[hearty flame]

I think a lot of people remember 2042s marketing. Lots of the right words were being said

[remote kiln]

no he was dead on with most his stuff, the map drawings were spot on for what the game had as multiplayer maps and you don't get that type of material except from insiders at DICE, the other parts do not matter, he has insider employees as sources and that much is clear

[tawny carbon]

2042 isn’t bad as BF4 launch day

[mental delta]

Specialists were poorly conceptualized and implanted anyway, I'm still convinced they tried to do the COD usual shit with special characters thinking it would work out anyway, it didn't

[tawny carbon]

BFV was supposed to have specialist system but it wasn’t finished yet

[mental delta]

I recall the maps drawings yes but I recall the times he was wrong as hell, as someone here said it I'll take those leaks with precaution

[remote kiln]

treat it with speculation as noted but if it's him saying this they have some weight at least

[ebon pilot]

Specialists aren't really that distinct on their own. They're basically a gadget + passive trait. The place where it gets really weird is when you have a massive open gadget pool that anyone can take anything from.

[remote kiln]

there's a gulf of difference between some random and not saying this

[mental delta]

Dice should begin teasing their next game though, it's been more than 2 fucking years since BF2042 launched, we're still waiting for a season 7 nobody seems to be excited about and we're just 1 year close to next BF release

[remote kiln]

the article broadly makes sense if true, RE's IP was a new thing so I wouldn't be shocked at a br

it's not a bad idea generally

As for the game’s setting itself, it will be set in the modern day somewhere around 2025 – 2030, with a strong story-driven emphasis on modern technology used in war.

[hearty flame]

Could be that EAs finally letting devs have time to finish their work instead of rushing things out early

[ebon pilot]

They haven't done any marketing yet for S7 so it's no surprise nobody is excited yet

[mental delta]

You're referring to the game's system before they restricted gadgets to certain classes ? Yes it was shitty as hell, people would ammo with sniper and grappling hook or recon with rocket launchers

[remote kiln]

I had already said before here Bryan breede will have a heavy influence on the next game, the article seems to corroborate that, we'll see

[mental delta]

I mean it's been 6 months since season 6 released approximately, it's time to show something now

[mental delta]

Who's that ?

[remote kiln]

they would be stupid to be teasing the next game this early

[remote kiln]

he's the person who made the idea of warzone for cod

[tawny carbon]

Warzone is Garbo

[mental delta]

Idk it would seem fair if they started teasing it during Summer

[remote kiln]

no it would be a senile and dumb idea

[mental delta]

🤢🤮

[remote kiln]

why do you want them to cannibalise their own game which isn't finished

[hearty flame]

At least this time the BR will stand on better footing being f2p and not b2p

[tawny carbon]

F2P BR is meh, it’s great for cheaters tho

[remote kiln]

^ outside the echo chambers of this discord and Reddit there is a big market available for something like this, and broadly that's what this IP needs

contrary to what everyone says

[mental delta]

Because I just want infos, their current game still isn't that good and terribly lacks content 2 years after launch, I just need other material and most people do, that doesn't mean reveal the game but just give some hints or make some statements for fuck's sake lol

[remote kiln]

doesn't matter my guy start using sense, the game still isn't finished, they aren't going to reveal anything till its near the end of support

[hearty flame]

Depends on if itll offer something extra that will drive people away from the established BRs like apex, fornite, and wz

[remote kiln]

people have been begging for a battle royale still formula since firestorm, just one which is done properly, the allure is the mix of a proper game title

"wz bad" etc is a opinion held by a fringe minority

[mental delta]

If you're talking about BF2042 when saying "end of support" well we're close af to end of support imo, season 8 is gonna be the last one logically and it's probably gonna end BF2042 love service this year

[remote kiln]

season 8, stretches into next year lol

so enjoy waiting a while I suppose

[hearty flame]

I'll take your word for it. Not much for BRs so don't interact with those communities

[mental delta]

Season 7 probably lasts for 6 or even 7 good months with the 2nd announced map coming mid-season like after 3 or 3.5 months deep in season 7, and season 8 starts in end of Summer if we're lucky so yeah maybe

[tawny carbon]

I feel like BRs is dying

[mental delta]

For the common good lol

[remote kiln]

established titles are yes

but that's not the same as a new competitor

wz 2 has been massively successful, etc

[tawny carbon]

I feel like BRs should die off. Extraction royale is better

[hearty flame]

I mean hey if EA gets their br to do all their weird and zany skins and stuff and let bf be bf I'm down for it

[remote kiln]

that's not going to escape the main game

[ashen siren]

For the next BF, I'll just be satisfied to have a polished, tested and finished game to play, that doesn't have absurd futuristic crap. The benchmark is set low to avoid any disappointments...

[hearty flame]

Ah let me dream 😅

[tawny carbon]

No game is perfect at launch day

[remote kiln]

overall the article is 90% what I already somewhat speculated the game would be, so I'm inclined to believe it's validity

we'll see but, I don't see anything major off from the writing

[ashen siren]

I know that derp! But at least have it playable without game-breaking stuff like AAA's love doing these days. The extra year of development "should" buy them enough time to achieve that.

[tawny carbon]

I hope next BF title continues 2042 story

[hearty flame]

I mean people have been screaming about what they want the next bf to be for years. Not hard to just regurgitate that

[remote kiln]

actions are harder than words

[tawny carbon]

BF4 have the worst launch in BF franchise and it still came out to be one of the top community fav

[remote kiln]

what people are saying, they don't realise they're saying

the battlefield community are a bunch of incoherent idiots most of the time and they can't articulate what they're actually talking about properly other than some vapid comment about a game made 10 years ago

[ashen siren]

Once again, I know that. BF4 cooincided with the release of the PS4 and Xbox One, so developing for those would have diverted attention away

[remote kiln]

and yes that's a harsh description but it's true, it's been this way since battlefield 3 and 4 were in development

nothing changed even now

[tawny carbon]

I mean 2042 didn’t get sued unlike BF4 2042 is still playable compared to BF4 for first couple months

[ashen siren]

BF4 worked ok for xbox one when released...not sure what the other platforms were like. I didn't experience any issues that would have stopped me from playing it at the time. I heard for pc it was a clusterf*ck though

[tawny carbon]

I’m talking about day 1 aka launch day

Pre new gen

For BF4

Compared to 2042 launch day

[ashen siren]

I had BF4 on the xbox one, day 1

[tawny carbon]

How about Xbox 360 day 1

That launch day

[mental delta]

I agree, my optimal BF would be no specialists and modern settings

I don't want to play shotty ass characters

Just some random dude fighting for a country

[ashen siren]

I deliberately didn't touch 2042 until late last year, because I kept hearing about how broken it was, lacked content, blah blah

[gilded goblet]

fr

[tawny carbon]

2042 is really good since S3. Every battlefield game tend to be broken in someway for at most a year

It’s normal

[remote kiln]

subjectively you can say xyz season, objectively the best by statistics is season 6

[tawny carbon]

Yes but S3 did kick off a great start

[ivory canopy]

S3 was very good tbh

As was S4

[remote kiln]

oh I agree it's not a insult or w/e

just most were this one

[tawny carbon]

True

[ivory canopy]

I'm actually very close to getting T1 on Zain

and with the ACW-R

[ivory canopy]

Got the ACW-R T1

Zain'll take a bit longer

It never fails when shooting XM rounds into a fray results in at least 5 kills

At that point the only assault specialist I haven't T1'd is Sundance

I am very not used to their scatter grenades so that'll be a timesink.

I have no T1s on an engi specialist. Closest to that is Lis.

[torpid wadi]

Just chuck them bitches at even the slightest chokepoint

[ashen siren]

I've barely touched any Assault class yet...busy doing Tier 1 with other stuff atm

[ashen siren]

They're a nightmare trying to outrun in chokepoints like on Redacted. Should be an easy way to farm some multikills

[next onyx]

@torpid wadi @ivory canopy

Reminds me of this awful thing that I have done.

[torpid wadi]

I just want you to know you are objectively a bad person
