imagine needing a ranked mode to make a game worth playing leo

mental delta
#

This one isn't particularly worht playing tbh

#

I play it

torpid lotus
#

HZ was competitive then they made it easy

mental delta
#

But I'm just built different

slate meadow
#

Am I right in thinking 1 of the 2 new maps is just a re-release of a part of a map that used to be in the game

torpid lotus
#

yes

#

rinse repeat

They are working on the new bf aren't they?

amber kelp

imagine if they idk like brought over metro, firestorm etc. sige of shang with the destruction

ranked rush could be kino but they'd have to severely limit/remove the vehicles

well no, not with 16v16 nvm

better comp or just brain deads

arctic grove
#

It’s the only battlefield i consistently stick with nowadays, used to be 4 but I’m thinking I’m gonna rebuy that game on PC

acoustic seal
torpid lotus
#

lmao

#

42 was rushed

#

soo fast to drop a product

arctic grove
torpid lotus
#

BF4 had comp

#

shit was nice

arctic grove
#

Like you’re way better off playing CoD, the finals, or some other shit

torpid lotus
#

cod is camp fest

arctic grove
#

BF1 had a planned comp mode but that’s about it, was called incursions if you ever wanna look into it

acoustic seal
#

bf1 could've been better without suppression and the slide nerf but those are minor complaints compared to bf5 pure random recoil and 2042 broken input

torpid lotus
#

42 you have pilots that just fly in circles. no ATG or ATA to help the team. people abandoning vics to where enemy will steal them

#

if i had a farm with chickens i assume this is what it would be like lol

arctic grove
torpid lotus
#

bring back commander mode so i can launch cruise missiles from my tablet

#

and what ever happened to battlelog

dawn cedar
#

why, then you will be saying that commanders are doing nothing but afking

#

🙂

arctic grove
#

Hell yeah commander was dope tbh

torpid lotus
#

good commander can help massively

arctic grove
#

Like it obviously could’ve been better balanced but that’s with a lot of things

acoustic seal
torpid lotus
#

i liked being able to join games/party from phone or customise class while in the rest room. super convenient lol

torpid lotus
#

miss the phantom bow challenges and the cool looking dog tags you could get from assignments. BF4 was dope man

#

think theyll bring a night mode to 42? or some darker maps with nvgs

torpid lotus
mental delta
#

Is this game fucking dead ?

#

It's Friday night

#

I'm on European servers

#

But somehow still can't find a game of Breakthrough

torpid lotus
#

dying not ded yet lol

mental delta
#

Only server I found is Hourglass

#

But game is almost over

#

And thanks to no persistent lobbies

#

I can't stay in same server after game's over

torpid lotus
#

dope map for the javelin

dawn cedar
#

nobody plays breakthrough

torpid lotus
#

rush baby

#

plant or die

dawn cedar
#

rush only fun if you are a boris main, gotta play fucking tower defense to get to bomb site

torpid lotus
#

smoke n push

dawn cedar
#

rather have fun in my jet

torpid lotus
#

then have your off main hit it with incindies to keep from defusing

torpid lotus
#

you know what i realized the 42 maps dont have runways for you to land the jets like in 4 caspian border, firestorm etc did so you could get out of dodge and heal up back at base

arctic grove
#

is friday night bf fun?

torpid lotus
#

depends on the mode

arctic grove
#

is rush xl fun i should say

torpid lotus
#

yas

#

#

Guys, I recently came back to the game - Is the battleplass just gone for ever? How do you earn the in game currency now?

torpid wadi
#

Well the previous season’s is

#

You get the shekels by playing the new one (when it comes out) or by coughing up some money

torpid wadi
#

No problem

tidal trail
#

Wow these changes coming to season 7 look horrible. 2 c5s for assault and recon class. No emp for casper's drone. Wildcat's getting super nerfed

#

How hard is it to just copy from BF4's formula

patent pivot
tidal trail
patent pivot
#

And where's my mortar

#

Best I can do is mini grenade

tidal trail
#

People sat in spawn in BF4 with mortars and UCAV

arctic grove
patent pivot
#

That's the major mistake

uncut valley
#

Can some1 tell me how to pick a-91 in portal mode?

tidal trail
arctic grove
#

It was probably a change made in 1 and V then, cause I know in V it works that way

patent pivot
#

Just takes like several ticks

#

And standing besides one for 10 seconds or so

arctic grove
#

Infantry should never spawn with 3 c4 or 4+ rockets tbh, basically I’m saying I think it’s an actually good idea, not horrible

ebon pilot
#

I think having a lot of rockets is fine. They take time to reload, need to be aimed, etc.

tidal trail
#

You'd need at least 2 people to kill a tank.

#

oh

#

that's still my name i see

#

One change to vehicles: don't make them recharge ammo

#

Ez fix

arctic grove
thick shadow
#

season 7 will be the last content drop? or will we get more

arctic grove
#

Almost 200 on BF1

copper fulcrum
#

Then the vehicle players play much more defensively and move away from the conflict

tidal trail
arctic grove
#

It could happen but most players weren’t doing that tbh

thick shadow
#

i should get that checked at the doctor

arctic grove
#

Cherry-picked footage combined with awful counterplay makes any vehicle seem OP

arctic grove
copper fulcrum
#

Non-Regenerating ammo resulting in tanks sitting on hills in the back in V

thick shadow
patent pivot
#

Or something

copper fulcrum
#

Teamplay doesn't exist in Battlefield unless a premade group came into play

tidal trail
#

BFV made you sit on objectives to replenish ammo

arctic grove
#

Tanks are going to camp regardless tbh though attrition in general was a mechanic I hated being added to a battlefield game

thick shadow
copper fulcrum
#

Even as a Sundance main, this 3 C5 change is perfectly fine mostly because of how FUCKED tanks were at all times

#

From Observatory to the Warehouse objectives on Breakaway it takes maybe a minute or so for Sundance to get there and instantly fuck over any vehicle the game has

#

That's the size of MOST Battlefield maps

thick shadow
#

firestorm would've been a fire conquest map but it's probably too big

copper fulcrum
#

Oh and Mackay's grapple hook now actually follows the vehicle. It's pretty fucked and there's only one vehicle in the game that has a 'close support system'

Besides, 2 C5 already does a fuckton of damage

#

I think an 40mm AP might finish the job depending on the vehicle

dawn cedar
#

theres something really cool about the SRAW that ive seen from the gameplay reveals so far

#

in the top right corner, it counts down the distances from 300m (the max) so you have a rough estimation on aiming against aircraft

#

i.e if you ping the heli and its 200m away, you know you have till about 100 left in the top right to hit it

#

looks like its also on the missile itself

pine roost
#

that's nice actually

next onyx
#

Oh man I hate armour but cucking shotgun mains is hilarious.

placid echo
#

What happened to shotguns?

next onyx
#

Body armour will get additional protection to buckshot and flechette.

#

Also their spread is being increased horizontally.

pine roost
#

ay, that aim range works again!

proven obsidian

#

blow up the enemy's landmine n da xp? I ask this because just now I blew up about 3 and the amount of xp didn't appear on the screen and as far as I remember, it always wins

chilly jacinth

body armor shouldnt even be a thing

honestly, if its to counter shotguns, based and keep it

#

man getting kills in this game is so easy, like getting 30+ in a older game was like good numbers, now 40+ is a good number and even 100 is possible most of the tim (if you got alot of bots tho)

#

like recently I carried a team using the ram and got over 100 kills

#

we won but it was because I single capped the last objective with my ram and a team of bots

kindred flint
#

so theres a new LMG coming in 7?

#

but its not going to be at launch Hmm

royal swan
#

it will keep us occupied for a bit

#

it's like we got 2 mini seasons of content

#

still fucking hate it

kindred flint
#

also wtf dice giving smgs back hs damage? are they mad?!

royal swan
#

fuck drip feeding

kindred flint
#

you cant reward good accuracy on smgs! CatRee

royal swan
#

i remember when they said that

kindred flint
#

thats literally what they said when they gutted them right?

royal swan
#

yep

kindred flint
#

like the most braindead shit ever

#

literally the problem with SMGs was...the fast firing large mags haHAA

#

imagine if you just...forced small mags with high rpm 🤯

#

but nah we dont have the data to support this wild theory...from the previous game

royal swan
#

nah put a drum mag on everything

#

you get a drum mag and you get a drum mag

kindred flint
#

even your pistol gets one! KEKSoldier

next onyx
#

I don't know what to look forward to.

#

There are so many guns to try out.

mental delta
#

The mystery's getting bigger everytime this mf tweets

chilly jacinth
#

tom wants his clicks

ebon pilot
#

oh boy safe and predictable

next onyx
#

I'd love it of the AKS74U got a 1.9x HSM

chilly jacinth
#

that aint happening

next onyx
#

It was a fun gun to run while getting the phantom challenges done.

#

No one expects a half competent Boris.

chilly jacinth
#

it should be classified as an AR however

#

but that didnt happen either

next onyx
#

I don't mind it as an "smg"

chilly jacinth
#

it just feels wrong when you know what the real thing shoots

royal swan
#

its a carbine and there should be a carbine class

ebon pilot
#

but why

chilly jacinth
#

because lol

ebon pilot
#

can someone explain what the fuck the melee hitbox is

next onyx
#

So is the EVO but I don't see people talking about that.

#

Its a pistol carbine but still.

ebon pilot
#

that's the gew right?

next onyx
#

The cz3a1

#

Err

elder violet
#

what’s the best secondary

royal swan
#

g57

#

or bfp

elder violet
#

bet

next onyx
#

Laugo alien, nvk p125 or the deagle

royal swan
#

g57 in burst fire

next onyx
#

Erm

pine roost
#

Deagle for the win

next onyx
#

L9cz

elder violet
#

i’m guessing preference?

ebon pilot
#

just try them out

elder violet
#

i just unlocked the futuristic pistol it’s pretty good

next onyx
#

Kinda?

royal swan
#

even after the nerf the g57 will get it can still 2 burst someone

chilly jacinth
#

g57 burst still deletes

elder violet
#

so g57 better than the nvk yall think

next onyx
#

I don't think so.

chilly jacinth
#

if the burst worked properly for the nvk it would probably be better

elder violet
#

yea i just unlocked it and i dont rlly like the burst ive been using single fire

next onyx
#

I'll specify this.

#

The NVK is perfect for people with a trigger finger.

#

The burst is only good for finishing people off (Which was its original intent)

#

I don't like the G57 purely because it's cheese and well, I forget to turn the burst on which gets annoying real quick.

#

The desert eagle is a really good side arm because of the fact that it disregards armour, Only weakness is its follow up potential.

#

Just don't be a me when you think you have a p125 and monkey mash the deagle while drunk as fuck.

elder violet
#

i’ve been using the m44 with a 4x as my main secondary i also fw the g57 but i haven’t rlly tried any of the other ones

next onyx
#

M44 is niche and not worth it 80% of the time.

#

I think it's fun as hell to use.

#

It's just how much you have to dedicate that slot to it.

pine roost
#

I’d rather just use the deagle for that wiggle room

next onyx
#

Oh bullet.

#

You MIGHT like to give the mp412 Rex a go.

#

My mate mains it cause it can OHK someone to the head 49 metres away.

torpid lotus
next onyx
#

It does a hard 50 damage sadly though.

#

Not 60.

#

The PF51 is irrelevant.

torpid lotus
#

not if you have multiple targets. perfect for the rng style of play with the m5

gray sinew
#

I want the music in the season 7 show in the second 0.45

pine roost
torpid lotus
#

can we just get the sig 226 or even 229. feel like this game hating on them for pistols lol

elder violet
#

i just want the fn 5.7

torpid lotus
#

yes that too omg

#

supposed to be 2042 but where are the present guns used today lmao

elder violet
#

bro if they added the fn 57 would be the only secondary i use

torpid lotus
#

.300 blackout hello?

pine roost
#

Well it’s not like they can use every gun that exists

pine roost
torpid lotus
#

i mean they have keltec, cz, glock, S&W etc

torpid lotus
next onyx
#

Oh wait.

#

No Bullet is on point.

#

There's the AR57.

#

But the FN57 exists too.

pine roost
#

Fn fal I was on about

next onyx
#

Oh yeah.

would like the SKS to come back

pine roost
#

#

How can one gun be chambered for 3 different ammo types

torpid lotus

torpid lotus

night verge
#

Yall I was wondering why don't the game have a hero system like in battlefront wouldn't it solve the immersion problem

ivory canopy
#

I quite like the M60

next onyx
next onyx
#

Normally though you cannot change an ammo type on the fly like you can do on 2042.

ivory canopy
#

What if there was a handgun where you can change the caliber by simply replacing the slide assembly?

#

The mags for each caliber would be the same exact size and fit right into the frame

next onyx
#

Technically the only one that makes sense is the VSS since no matter what its rounds are 9x19MM's.

ivory canopy
#

You mean 9x39

next onyx
#

Fuck.

#

I knew it looked wrong.

#

AH YES

#

9X19MM DMR.

ivory canopy
#

I can imagine Glock waiting to release their new handgun which looks the same as the others but has caliber changing

next onyx
#

Pistols focus more on stopping power to make up for their tiny ass round yeah?

ivory canopy
#

Oh, and just for shits and giggles

#

Make the UXP capable of full auto

#

But give it insane dispersion to compensate

#

So if one chose the UXP with 5.7 ammo and ran it full auto, it'd have something like 1600 RPM.

#

Quite literally, spray and pray

#

I do believe it's feasible to make a caliber change handgun.

I really do enjoy the new ones, especially BF2042. Just seems off in general.

naive ember
#

There was a bunch of full 128p lobbies last night

mental delta
mental delta
#

It's just that yesterday was FNB

naive ember
#

So what

mental delta
#

And people usually play the game during FNB

naive ember
#

It's always active

#

FNB was insane

mental delta
# naive ember So what

So the fact there was a lot of people on a Friday night doesn't mean shit, there's always a lot of players during FNB

tawny carbon
#

Honestly modern setting battlefield is amazing for the franchise. BF1 and V is meh.

mental delta
#

If you play it the rest of the week it won't be that populated

naive ember
#

Dude your smoking too much

mental delta
mental delta
naive ember
#

You think you did?

mental delta
naive ember
#

Not at all

tawny carbon
#

the game is really popular during FnB because it’s time limited per week. It’s not you average day joe featured mode that you always see.

naive ember
#

You don't know right

mental delta
#

Just saying game isn't that populated and that FNB are mostly when people tend to play the game in numbers

tawny carbon
#

Time limited event in general I should say gets more love.

naive ember
tawny carbon
mental delta
naive ember
#

That's hilarious, later crab dude

#

Not going to bother with you kid

tawny carbon
mental delta
mental delta
#

Game certainly is more populated than right after launch but player count decreased a lot since a few weeks as they didn't bring any new content for 6 months

tawny carbon
mental delta
# naive ember Not at all he's wrong

I mean I'm playing on European servers and those are the most populated servers if I ain't wrong, and sometimes I even struggle to find matches so no this game is definitely not that populated, still probably the most populated BF game though

naive ember
#

Saying the game is dead, then saying oh wait it was populated because of FNB. Just pure comedy man

#

I can't stop laughing

#

I'm out

#

Later

mental delta
tawny carbon
#

Obviously more content in general. Remind you they have to make everything from scratch aka the ground up.

mental delta
remote kiln
#

it's not dead, less populated yes because it's the end of a season, it's predictable

mental delta
#

Like sure we got 7 seasons, but for what ?

#

After 2 years we'll have like 7 new maps and a handful of guns

#

Don't get me wrong it's cool

#

But if we could choose I'd prefer them to stop supporting game so they can completely move on to next one

tawny carbon
#

I mean 😪 it allows the devs to add more features and make the game better before they straight up stop supporting it. S4 barely had content to close up shop.

#

Very battlefield they done so far, the fix up the game heavily, prob revamp and add new gameplay features. With more content before closing up shop officially or early.

#

If the game stopped support after S4, the game is to dry. Unbalanced asf. Can also make the devs look bad. The community already made them look bad from the start due to its development. If S4 was the last season. People will say o the game closed up and barely have content. O this is how they treat their games, Fix it up and leave. Unbalanced game. Ect

#

The devs prob have a roadmap for the future of 2042. As of now till end of support or next title drops.

mental delta
#

But yeah I agree

#

They were literally forced to continue supporting it

#

Otherwise players would have lost any sense of trust in Dice

#

And nobody would have bought next game

tawny carbon
#

Gotta look at the overall game health. Is it good enough to say support is done for.

mental delta
#

I just wished they would stop over-hyping things like with their 2 maps thing or half the season 7's content coming mid-season

mental delta
tawny carbon
#

I feel like the player base over hyped it more. I am only hype for S7 due weapon feel change. For visual and making it heavy. Other content is basically a bonus for me to keep me engaged with the game.

#

Sucks that S7 took 6 months but also could’ve been long since next game is in development still. a lot of things happening behind the scenes that we don’t know about.

tawny carbon
torpid lotus
#

imagine if they built off the BF4 campaign and had an actual story you could play through

ashen siren
#

YAY, our internet is back up...so much for being told 4 days for services to resume! 😄

ashen siren
torpid lotus
#

i agree

ashen siren
#

Like, who tf is Oz, and why should we care?

tawny carbon
#

Look at the lore ThinkEyes

ashen siren
#

Errrrr...nah thanks!

torpid lotus
#

what lore? i want to play the lore. Like we just forget about pak and irish, what happened to them in baku?

#

recker?

#

alls i got is this stupid dinosaur key chain

ashen siren
#

If there was a proper storyline that we could play, maybe I'd give two shits about Oz, the player backgrounds, blah blah. Instead it's just shoved in, hoping that it makes any sense

ebon pilot
#

read the codex

torpid lotus
#

disaster. to have such a big title and then put this shit on a shingle

ebon pilot
#

it explains the lore

torpid lotus
#

gamers dont read we play for the immersion

ebon pilot
#

i can tell

tawny carbon
torpid lotus
#

remember having fun searching the maps for the hidden dog tags? like where did that go

ashen siren
# ebon pilot read the codex

It's really got nothing at all to do with the gameplay, so why would I bother digging around in the codex? Rather they just ditched that nonsense tbh

tawny carbon
#

HMM that was yesterday post, I just now saw it

ebon pilot
#

none of the lore has had anything to do with gameplay

torpid lotus
#

they should sell it to another name that will take better care of the game

ebon pilot
#

in any battlefield game

#

battlefield games are big war sandboxes first, storytelling tools second

torpid lotus
#

lore has to do with the story, which is played through gameplay on the campaign

#

but they screwed themselves by forgetting it with 42

#

now we just have a ship in the middle of the ocean during covid with survivors and russia tryna kill us

tawny carbon
#

Lore happens throughout seasons For the game. It’s interesting to look at. But also complex if you didn’t look at it since day 1.

arctic grove
#

Question: if 2042 released in a complete state with no bugs, would the game be as disliked now as it is?

next onyx
#

I do question that myself Roth.

#

I think so yeah.

ebon pilot
tawny carbon
#

Bugs will always be in the game. It just lacked QoL stuff on launch day.

torpid lotus
#

remeber playing the alpha and beta and you couldnt get over 40fps. and not having a party mode or voice chat was terrible

next onyx
#

The game would have been in a better state feedback wise where people wouldn't be focusing on the bugs and instead be focusing on gameplay issues inherit to the game at the time.

remote kiln
ashen siren
#

Fundamentally it's not a bad game (now), but it's really missing a lot of feel and grittiness, and is a bit sterile. In Oceana it's pretty much a dead game now, even with crossplay, and 2 gamemodes are all that's active. Pity!

remote kiln
#

if it released today on launch it would be much more better received

torpid lotus
#

i mean you see a lot more silver and gold tabs in games now so im happy for those starting out

tawny carbon
#

If 2042 wasn’t rushed and have a better leadership for the devs. And cut out last gen consoles. The game will be amazing today 🥲 with the changes that happens since day 1.

arctic grove
#

I just wondered, I’ve only been playing for a week now, but love it a lot, more or less cause I love guns and customizing them.

remote kiln
#

you would have a very different opinion had that not been the case

#

as I said the game's launch state was that bad it's enough to make half the playerbase write it off immediately

torpid lotus
remote kiln
#

but everyone makes out that specialists are the main issue when that's never been true

tawny carbon
#

Specialist never affected me tbh

arctic grove
#

Do specialist come out at season launches or just at random?

next onyx
#

Issue round specialists is how they're balanced.

tawny carbon
torpid lotus
#

i will say i like the "T" button fast swap attachements. wish other games went to that

remote kiln
arctic grove
torpid lotus
#

i miss the original 4 roles. people didnt like the classes which is why in certain modes only 1 person could play as them so you didnt have like 4 sundance or mackay

thorny saddle
#

is anyone else having server issues?

tawny carbon
remote kiln
#

the attachment system can stay just remove the ability to switch magazines

ashen siren
arctic grove
#

They should make a specialist that can use thermal goggles

torpid lotus
#

i like it for optics if i need something for longer range

#

some maps the fight with change from close to farther out "hourglass" etc

torpid lotus
ashen siren
#

I just rejoined the game I was on, n am on the other side that's getting smashed...thanks Dice!

next onyx
#

There's load of cheesy shit in this game that needn't have existed.

torpid lotus
#

but imagine if there was cheese

#

like you go into stadium and theres cheese fries and dogs on the tables

calm bison
#

I’d think it’s pretty impressive that a stadium that’s partially covered in sand is still selling food but hey

#

That’s dedication

torpid lotus
#

games postponed due to storm so we eat for sand delay

mental delta
torpid lotus
#

yall remember naval supremacy or whatever? with the fast attack boats and jet skis etc. what happened to that

ashen siren
torpid lotus
#

right

tawny carbon
#

Naval just won’t work inside 2042 due to balancing.

ashen siren
#

Nah they just don't have maps with water...laziness!

torpid lotus
#

next bf needs to have more factions to fight. could give us ukraine, russia, somalia, yemen etc. imagine taking out pirates in the open sea with epic naval battles and then moving to land to fight over a frozen tundra and then to the desert sands

chilly jacinth
#

did bf1 have any water combat?

tawny carbon
tawny carbon
ashen siren
tawny carbon
#

It did?

torpid lotus
#

remember the maps that would flood from the storms or the damns you could break open

#

like how did 42 miss all the awesomeness we had

tawny carbon
#

Levolution is a BF4 thing. They haven’t brought back that mechanic yet.

torpid lotus
#

youd think these titles would just build off what they had that was succesful instead of cavemanning it and ooga booga some new wheel

arctic grove
#

I don’t want the next bf to have gore

chilly jacinth
#

so bf1 only had 2 driveable water vehicles

mental delta
chilly jacinth
#

kinda pointless

arctic grove
#

Do we know what era the next bf is taking place in?

tawny carbon
#

Dice always been experimenting with different things. But also have to work with how the game is also.

mental delta
torpid lotus

Modern is the best setting

its gonna take place in downtown chicago

BF1 had really good gameplay with the torpedo boats, you used them a LOT to ninja and back-cap flags

arctic grove
#

It’s nice cause they’re all actual guns and not made up

torpid lotus

facts

mental delta
torpid lotus
#

the "lore" these kids want

torpid lotus
#

42 miss the mark

tawny carbon
torpid lotus
#

i want mortars and ucav back

chilly jacinth
#

its not like any bf game has had many water vehicles

#

or where they matter alot

torpid lotus
#

4 had the fast attack, jet ski, hover boats etc. the underwater submarine battle was nice

mental delta
tawny carbon
#

@chilly jacinth @mental delta did you play kaleidoscope pre rework from release? For 2042

mental delta
chilly jacinth
#

unfortunately

#

yes

tawny carbon
#

Remember the water level at Charlie point aka middle of the map was way higher compared to now

chilly jacinth
#

and its just the heavily armed boat

ashen siren
#

Shanghai had jetskis

tawny carbon
ashen siren
#

LAV4's are also amphibious and were super handy

torpid lotus
tawny carbon
torpid lotus
ashen siren
#

Yeah but that can be said for every bf release...the focus is always more on infantry, with air and sea as supporting acts that you can use to influence the battlefield

torpid lotus
#

the damn map had boats too

chilly jacinth
#

land and air has always been the focus

#

and that hasnt changed in any game

tawny carbon
#

If boats was in 2042. It won’t have a good lifespan. Will be extremely underpowered.

torpid lotus
#

then when last stand came out or whatever and we had the winter maps with the rail gun and phantom bow

#

soo nasty

upbeat sand
#

Hey there this is Danny and today....

chilly jacinth
#

glorious inconcistent weak spots

torpid lotus
#

that used to be the case. idk why 42 went away from that. 4 you knew the weak spots on the tanks was the rear and turret

vocal tusk
#

It's the exact same in 2042

torpid lotus
#

lies these vics eat rockets

upbeat sand
#

Do you guys prefer the Oscar gun animations from base game or the newer ones from an animator that I do not know who it is because I don't know if they post their work

#

(Oscar also worked on a lot of major guns in bfv)

chilly jacinth
#

dunno dont care

upbeat sand
#

I think I look into it too much

vocal tusk
#

If you mean the new firing animations, I like how the new ones look.

upbeat sand
#

Cause I can feel a different feeling

torpid lotus
#

the recoil in this game for weapons is really inaccurate

vocal tusk
#

*almost every game

chilly jacinth
#

it feels inaccurate cause theres spread

upbeat sand
ebon pilot
#

another clip for the "rao is actually good you're just bad" folder

upbeat sand

Cause personally I can feel it

torpid lotus
ebon pilot
vocal tusk
#

Names one game. (That also has inaccurate recoil)

#

No game really depicts recoil perfectly

torpid lotus
#

gave you two my guy cant read

chilly jacinth
#

alot of games depict recoil as uncontrollable

vocal tusk
#

And no player should actual want a real depiction of recoil.

torpid lotus
vocal tusk
#

God, one of these people

upbeat sand
ebon pilot
#

Squad recoil is so inaccurate for being a realistic shooter

torpid lotus
vocal tusk
#

No it won't lol

upbeat sand
#

Also random thing caus I like talking about insecure things, I think I remember that a dice animator on art station showed that he worked on the pp29, vcar and the 1942 portal bolt actions

tawny carbon
#

I didn’t know shooter games needs to have the most realistic recoil.

chilly jacinth
#

hasnt squad been declining

#

in players

vocal tusk
#

Give it another decade guys

ebon pilot
#

ehh it's been at about where it's always been

upbeat sand
#

Swat 4>

torpid lotus
#

it lacks the progression and stats that lore players want lol

chilly jacinth
#

hmm actually its been increasing

torpid lotus
#

but its still a dope game

chilly jacinth
#

but its still not alot of players

torpid lotus
#

if RON gets pvp that will take flight also

vocal tusk
#

Good game yes, will have a large consistent player base, no.

fickle wharf
vocal tusk
#

It's too hardcore in many aspects to keep player interest.

upbeat sand
torpid lotus
#

42 just lost its edge. in 3-4 you used to have to grind to get 30+ kills in a game. 42 you can easily go off

tawny carbon
#

Milsim player base is really small in general

torpid lotus
upbeat sand
#

Ah

vocal tusk
#

3/4 were slower, so less kills is an obvious factor. I do hope the next BF game steps back the speed of gameplay.

torpid lotus
#

imagine 2 teams tryna rescue hostages while fighting each other and the ai lol

upbeat sand
#

(Except cod cause they refuse to drop their games from over 10 years to under 30 dollars)

next onyx
ebon pilot
ashen siren
#

42 has leaned a little more towards CoD for that instant gratification of fast kills, rather than earning them in previous titles.

torpid lotus
#

yes

#

and less teamplay

vocal tusk
#

I disagree.

torpid lotus
#

ptfo isnt a thing in 42. its just chaos lol

vocal tusk
#

There is plenty of teamplay, lots of players simply chose to not play as a team/squad.

torpid lotus
#

if they went back to just the 4 classes it would make people have to actually work together and do their roles

upbeat sand
#

I'd say it does work

vocal tusk
#

There are literally 4 classes in 2042

ashen siren
#

Teamplay used to be much better, it's super-rare to find even a squad that wants to work together. When you have one and people play their roles, you can hulk-smash the enemy

upbeat sand
#

Although stuff like universal weapons ruins a little of it

#

Caus letting supports having snipers is nooooo

torpid lotus
vocal tusk
#

Ruin it how, explain

chilly jacinth
#

bf5 medic has the best sniper btw

ashen siren
#

I would go back to limiting weapons for different classes, the current system just encourages lone-wolfing

torpid lotus
#

only revive if youre the medic, angle gives ammo and can call in crate. just keep it to a support guy with 1 box

vocal tusk
#

IMO, universal weapons ruins it far more than any effect of specialists

upbeat sand
#

I'd say they should lock out 1 class of weapons for every class

Assault: NO LMG (because of their extra ammo trait on ARs)
Engineer: NO SMG
Support: NO SNIPERS
Recon: NO ARs

torpid lotus
#

yes that too

#

assault:defib/medbag
engineer:rockets/mines
support:ammo
recon:spawn

vocal tusk
#

Specialists were never the problem imo. How specialists were set up at launch was the problem. That and some gadgets being very hard to balance /having too much effect on level design/traversal (wingsuit/grapple hook )

torpid lotus
#

but the fact that i can run "support" and snipe somewhere with infinite ammo all match is stupid cheese

upbeat sand
#

Also maybe buff the weapon specialists traits for the classes like faster reload with LMGs on engineer and better hipfire on support smg

vocal tusk
#

Armor needs to go for next game too.

torpid lotus
#

the fact that i can run casper and have zero weapon sway and a motion detector at all times is easy

upbeat sand
#

Maybe replace the weapon sway with faster scope in?

torpid lotus
#

maybe longer drone range

chilly jacinth
#

quickscoping incoming

torpid lotus
#

lol

upbeat sand
torpid lotus
#

boris used to be badass

#

then thy nerf commuth

upbeat sand
#

We don't talk about the 4 shot spotter turret

vocal tusk
#

Game needs more traits if anything. Would be great for them to be able to add new class traits in new updates.

Things like extra mags, extra ordinance, extra underwater breath capacity, extra grenade, faster sprint, take less fall damage...etc.

#

But let you chose your speciality

torpid lotus
#

or make it where you can buy/select traits you want

chilly jacinth
#

underwater breath for what water?

upbeat sand
vocal tusk
#

Speaking of an ideal game, not just 2042

torpid lotus
#

like HZ had when you can use your currency for certain traits

torpid lotus
vocal tusk
#

No

#

Traits shouldn't affect moment to moment gameplay

torpid lotus
#

then get rid of grapple

#

lmao

vocal tusk
#

They should all be passives, not anything that gives you an advantage in skill based gameplay.

torpid lotus
#

theres no skill based gameplay in 42

vocal tusk
#

You are literally Un talkable to

calm bison
#

What the fuck is even happening…

torpid lotus
#

SBMM would need to be added then if you want skilled play

tawny carbon
#

Good thing battlefield don’t have skill based matchmaking. It’s just a fun casual game.

torpid lotus
#

exactly

chilly jacinth
#

aw hell nah

#

dont tell me you like sbmm

tawny carbon
#

SBMM ruins games

torpid lotus
#

it does

#

soem people just want to chill

tawny carbon
#

Unless it a actual competitive game like Val

calm bison
#

I think in this context “skilled gameplay” is in reference to a person’s own talents and ability to play the game well

torpid lotus
#

oh skill gap

tawny carbon
#

Battlefield is always revolving around skill gaps laugh

upbeat sand
#

I'd say BETTER class traits would be like
Assault: keep the ammo and also faster gadget equip time
Support: a extra quicker run to weapon time than now, plus the better hip accuracy
Engineer: faster lmg reloads on top of the less recoil
Recon: quicker scoping and faster bullet chaimbering

torpid lotus
#

be nice to have a feature to lean or pie. would help with clearing corners before blow through

ashen siren
#

Giving recon even more advantages...they've got it pretty good dude

copper hull
#

Feature to dive in any direction
Combat roll

As someone who abused lean in bf5 this game does not need it.

TOM: Ever since OG DICE started to leave Battlefield, it's been a cursed franchise (which sucks), but trying to get to the bottom of what's going on.

At first glance, the next Battlefield game seems "safe" and "predictable".

#

Yeah. Sounds like they are going to a back to basics approach and playing it extremely safe

amber kelp
#

there is no "lean abuse" you just lean

next onyx
#

It was bs in that it made your hitbox fucking tiny.

#

When using it properly.

#

Pretty much only your gun will stick out.

amber kelp
#

sounds pretty fixable and doesnt warrant the removal of leaning

next onyx
#

They never bothered to fix it.

chilly jacinth
#

you think dice can fix anything

#

cute

next onyx
#

It's better off without.

ebon pilot
#

leaning in practice is basically just always used as a hitbox manipulator

vocal tusk
#

Contextual lean/peak would be nice, but manual is not needed imo

thick robin
#

Excuse me, but I have photos of a major-sized concept list I created in my Notes app. They’re all in photos. Where can I post those photos?

#

Also, leaning is realistic in my opinion.

chilly jacinth
#

realism doesnt matter

vocal tusk
#

Damn, dude said leaning is realistic lol

amber kelp
next onyx
#

Contextual leaning was buggy as fuck.

vocal tusk
#

Checks reality... Yup can confirm leaning is realistic

next onyx
#

Manual was a big step up and loads of fun but it got boring when everyone resorted to it.

ebon pilot
amber kelp
#

im talking about BF dummy

thick robin
#

Ba’al Feel

vocal tusk
#

Maybe next game will have it, but I doubt it's addition will be high on a list of priorities.

chilly jacinth
#

i hope not

amber kelp
vocal tusk
#

I never thought movement was all that good in bf1.

#

It had cool actions (like Bayonette charging) , but never had it's movement high on my list of things it did well.

amber kelp
vocal tusk
#

They just need to have nice first and 3rd person animations, and to slow the game down. No tac sprint,or need for it. Map design will factor a lot in here.

Hopefully they have learned from 2042 that players mostly don't want large spread out maps.

amber kelp
#

Im down for a couple large spread out maps, those maps just need the amount of vehicles required to do that

ebon pilot
#

i'm kinda wish they'd keep tac sprint. it's not really a bad mechanic

amber kelp
#

I feel like regardless of map design the main reason silk road works and hour glass doesnt is that one has a million motorcycles everywhere

ebon pilot
#

hopefully it'd be unnecessary, but there's still points where you do have to run and being able to run a little bit faster at the cost of not being able to shoot as fast is a nice trade-off mechanic

amber kelp
#

On paper that works, the problem is using tac sprint in areas where you dont have to run a really long distance. BBR is trying some work around for that Im curious to see how it plays out

next onyx
#

Super sprint is cool.

ebon pilot
#

what's wrong with using tac sprint in areas where you don't have to run a long distance? you run faster, but if an enemy gets the drop on you you're probably dead. that's the trade off you made when deciding to tac sprint

chilly jacinth
#

how is you using it badly a problem

next onyx
#

It doesn't exactly take away anything and the draw backs are good enough.

vocal tusk
#

Faster movement impacts gunplay and map traversal. It also affects the speed of all other assets in the game and damage output. From tank movement, heli speed to player/vehicle damage output.

Faster movement speed also affects networking and hit reg.

amber kelp
next onyx
#

Speed isn't bad.

#

I do agree it has altered peoples perception of the pacing of the game.

#

But I don't believe it's all in all that bad.

amber kelp
#

its not altered perception of the games pace, its altered the games pace

tawny carbon
#

Leaning in any game isn’t not a priority. It’s a nice mechanic. Battlefield isn’t a need of having that mechanic.

chilly jacinth
#

is it actually faster than any previous games though

ebon pilot
#

it's not that significant of a speed boost

next onyx
#

You run as fast as a support who's sprinting regularly with the SPRNT perk.

vocal tusk
#

It also over complicated gunplay, as you now have 2 factors designers need to account for when designing new weapons. Sprint to fire recovery and tac sprint to fire recovery

next onyx
#

And I believe he found that it tied with bf3 and 4.

#

Bf1 and bf5 were surprisingly the slowest.

chilly jacinth
#

what a surprise

next onyx
#

It's weird.

#

I don't remember bf5 having a slow pace.

amber kelp
chilly jacinth
#

probably because alot of the maps are urban

#

dunno

next onyx
#

Super sprint is the same speed as a soldier with SPRNT from bf3 and bf4.

#

Yeah I feel that's it really ARc.

amber kelp
#

what the fuck

ebon pilot
next onyx
#

Mostly round the map designed accomadated around it too.

vocal tusk
#

I'm not saying the speed is the issue. They could just remove tac sprint and make regular sprint tac sprints speed to lessen mechanical complexity.

chilly jacinth
#

why do you need to dumb it down though

#

its not complex in the first place

vocal tusk
#

To make everything easier to work with on the development side

ebon pilot
#

how do you know how easy it is to work with on the development side?

vocal tusk
#

Cos I work in game dev

amber kelp
#

(also common sense)

ebon pilot
#

at dice?
