Yeah I hate other launchers tbh
if they don't use the launcher then crossplay can't work so, pick your poison
good
gonna launch
fingers crossed ben
Just wish it wasn't so shit. Like they are the reason steam is a damn monopoly, they can't even provide decent competition
closed again
it just loads the white bar below the dark creations image and closes after that
And thank god steam is a fucking goated launcher
hmm
give your machine a restart?
i'll do that now
When the game came out a played it a ton with my friends early access, they hated it because it was super buggy. We played maybe 20+ hours, because it hadnt come out yet they all tried for refunds and all got their money back
I ended up doing the game
same*
got it much later on sale
Steam is goated
Yeah I didn't refund the game
Anyone buying the next one via EA or on a console is a brave soul
ill be buying it on steam lol
I was stuck playing it throughout it's life
its hard to imagine how they could fuck up the next game knowing EXACTLY what went wrong with this game
but it is EA
so we'll see
I just don't pay attention to them. Trying to actually enjoy the game now
besides, I know what's in the update anyway
How many more seasons of this game do you guys think we will get
man half their team being ai must suck
That's TDM for yah
probably a season 8, I wouldn't expect anything past that
well considering that during season 3 we asked this question, who knows
unfortunately didn't work i honestly have no clue what else i can do
they only said a "year 2"
I usually just press don't recommend channel but I can't somehow and there's so many of them on my results
that's all, as of now anyways
feels like i've done everything possible
windows updates?
i haven't updated windows yet no
bruh
Wat
it's TDM bro
no one plays it
unless i get the bois on
or wat 6PM
I'm on 22H2 is there any problems with that?
youre a bit behind
lol
22621.3296
i'm normally too busy working or at college to play so that's probably why
how long do you reckon it will take me to update
its a feature update so maybe 15-20 mins
dunno what your internet is like
Im on fiber
same
itll be quick for you
i'll get it done tomorrow and fingers crossed it works but thank you for all the help richi much more helpful than EA marking my ticket as resolved without a reply
no problem feel free to Dm me if that doesnt work, help my friends out all the time with shit like this
lol true and okay, thanks again
Hi, I'm looking for some info I don't know if someone can help me.
Some months ago I came across a post saying how some marksman rifle ammo didn't really decrease the shots to kill and was not worth the extra recoil and reduced magazine.
I'm grinding the 417 (G428)now (I don't play that often) and I was wondering if its the case as well or if there is any charts around with stk and stuff like that
The heavy ammo on most guns increases the damage ranges, not necessarily the actual damage.
There are some exceptions
Thanks. I was going to send the link myself, but it timed me out for it.
The TL;DR: the damage at point blank is identical but the ranges at which full damage occurs are different.
yeah the Google docs will trigger the timeout
it's under pinned messages just paste the disc link
He set up on a different link
That link is just a redirect to a new one at this stage.
fr
With the addition of the stealth bomber
OMG i hope it's not OP as shit
its going to be op at launc come on 
And the next nerf will make it useless
Making the plane die in one rocket

When is update
tuesday
Thanks ra
discarded tdm is such a mess
Discarded is always chaotic...can only imagine what it's like with TDM. Headless chooks running around, blazing away!
it's just how the main ship just becomes a sniper nest, with plenty of long, empty lanes that's just open
your only hope is just smoking them out
There's so little cover to get to the ship...snipers sitting up top just racking up kills galore
several maps in this game feel like theyre trying to recreate fun spots like the Shanghai tower or damavan peak without actually understanding what made those designs work
over the last few weeks I've just been playing dm, and frankly some map layouts just get on my nerves
There's been such little thought to the flow of maps, and how people are going to exploit certain areas, and completely disregard others. Take Hourglass for example...at least half that map nobody ever uses
at least half that map nobody ever uses
not necessarily a bad thing. Sinai Desert is a good counterexample
So many tdm maps feature that same central pillar structure it often feels a bit repetitive
Captain, el almain, breakaway, redacted, Arica are all pretty fun
The rest are just a slog
What is so good about those compared to others?
I haven’t really played tdm this season
They’ve all got good lanes so you aren’t just visible at all times. El almain is on the cusp of being annoying but it manages to get away with it
Valparaiso I just don’t like because of all the foliage
But discarded just feels bad when it’s all based around that central pillar and spawns aren’t in your favour
And redacted is an absolute blast
Discarded is probably my least favourite map in 2042...the spawn points are awful, and it's pure luck if you make it to the ship before you're picked-off by a sniper camping up top.
I’m looking forward to seeing how haven’s layout goes
I loved tdm on mercury and Marita, and from first glance at the orbital view I’m hoping it ends up feeling somewhat the same
Oh wait
I just remembered
There are videos on the map already isn’t there
Gah my neck aches after playing that for so long
The blur makes me constantly have the need to get real close to the screen to see anything
I’m just gonna wait for the season
some bugs in game are making me insane
sometimes it requires for me to restart the game
Lastnight, a few times I experienced not healing up...like I wasn't self-healing with time, and health-packs did absolutely nothing. It wasn't fun! 😛
it’s insane this game has been out for 2 years and these bugs still exist
I can’t play any mode at all
if it even got me in, it’s like 40% chance
and sometimes my game crashes saying directx error couldn’t allocate more vram
I struggle to get into games most of the time, but that's due to insufficient player numbers...even with crossplay being a thing. There's so many little niggles, but lastnight with health not working was the worst one I've come across. It sucked all enjoyment out of playing.
Yep, that really shits me tbh! They had breakthrough as a feature mode for a weekend ages ago, and absolutely loved it. Never once been able to play it since due to it being dead af. 😦
I don’t know who to blame
At this point, they may as well just cull half the game-modes, and concentrate on those that people are actually playing, n getting that right
the activity or the matchmaking
Oceana player numbers are abysmal, makes it so hard to even get a game in
I managed to get a bug where after a random ads the screen maintained the same zoom level but I was in hipfire
Which was odd
Yeah that occurs sometimes
rip my jet tmrw
game spawns me on the other side of the map from the point i chose
killed by guy who blends perfectly into the shadows
have to reach 130 kills just to use a bipod on an lmg
30 different layers of verticality on the map
half of those are reached by looping staircases
idk why I gave 42 another chance
You don't need a bipod on an LMG XD
its a machine gun. a bipod seems like a reasonable thing
Trust me you don't.
Use the bcg stubby as an engie and take advantage of crouch firing.
or I could boot up any other bf game that lets me use an lmg like an lmg
You can in this too. Though you don't really need a bipod to succeed.
besides, bcg is a higher requirement anyway
You know you can get this done in solo / co op too.
too late I already uninstalled. (not over this alone but over the avalanche of shit design both large and small that made each game I played uniquely unfun)
I promise myself ill stop 2042 once WR drops
you could also stop right now
im only there to keepy myself company with bots
Yeah i dont really get that. But didnt you say VU also had good bots? Why settle for 42?
the major drawback with VU bot is the system relies on linear path
meaning bots are not smart to think and move freely wherever and whenever
i think 2042 is great 
It's ok.

idk bout great max is good
would be better if it lets me in games
It's one of the Battlefields of all time
I get it now
You know all the sniper spots in the huge ass maps?
It wouldn't have made sense for the whole squad to gamble by sitting in one of them, in the cancelled and un-cancelled Battle Royale mode
It would've been fine if a sniper was camping in one of those spots because camping would lead to defeat
either by dying to the zone, or natural disasters, or just not getting to extract with any drives
No weapon or gadget unlock with the 20 tier skip
Fewer people shall be running around beaming on people with the new weapons in the first few days 
eh with the way 2042 hands out free battlepass xp, it will take someone like Way about an hour to get the new guns 
and we know that everyone who is just wants to watch the world burn.... including money 
and also Way
There are two types of people. Those who pay for tier skips and those who are Way
Nah DICE will send him a youtube 500K subscriber plaque and just change the lettering to Way has earned 500K XP in the first hour of Season 7
I take lethal amount of drugs.
No
Star it
yes star it since it's true
Perfectly cut out of context momento
I’ll be back in this channel within a week or so 
Aw shit.
🦆
Sp lads
I don't really care either way I think I'll just buy the 20 tier skips cause lazy. I just miss it when we got 4 free tiers cause they'd have to guarantee the specialist at release.
Lol fr tho
I have T1 for every season, I plan on continuing that streak
I had an entire spreadsheet for the first 3 seasons just to track progress and see how far I'd come in just xp as the xp per level increased the further up you went
I just focus on the first 100 tiers and then when I'm done I'll then calculate how far away weekly mission wise to the tier 1 badge.
After the shit they pulled with season 6 I wouldn't be surprised one fucking bit if this season purposefully cucked everyone else.
Most modes are dead for us in oceana 😦
The server couldn't handle 128p so it died
Oceania is fake no wonder you cannot find any games 

I'd love to play breakthrough...really enjoyed it during that special event for a couple of day they had a while back
FU EA! 😦
Will there be a pre load for tomorrow update?
Pre-load is now available on PlayStation, version 1.50.
Uuu Nice, thank you 😁🥳
Now that's funny.
Two in a row what you mean.
you can get the T1 badge with tier skips tho 
Maybe 4 in a row after 
Turn up the volume for our latest episode of #InsideBattlefield for all things Season 7: Turning Point 🎧
Yo guys quick question from a noobie, if i'm on 93 level right now what will happen tomorrow with a new season? I'll stay on 93 level and then progress to 100 and then to S001 right? Because i don't understand why there is an option with paid battlepass to obtain +20 levels, is it for a new players who are on level 1 or why would i want +20 levels if i'm already on 100+ level for example
your career rank has nothing to do with battlepass levels
Ep31??
There's that many? 
I thought there was one every season or something
The rankins system in this game is weird, I don't really understand it fully tbh, and makes zero difference to my experience
how is it weird lmao
It's not like cod so it doesn't make sense to them 

okay, i thought that it's the same thing, then what's the point of progressing through battlepass levels? Like i don't even know what level i'm on (i've started playing a month ago)
It's not particularly intuitive...and no I fucking despise CoD!
to get the rewards tied to that tier/level?????????

What has cod done to gamers 
Without paying for battlepass, it's pretty much useless, except for the very, very occasional xp boost. blatant cash-grab effort from EA
The level system in this game is plain simple
yeah but what rewards? You mean like skins and charms? Beceause past the 99 level there is no new guns or attachments to open anymore if i'm correct

Nowhere near as simple as previous releases. It took me a while to figure the gist of it. Don't treat me like a moron mate.
lowk forgot about this game💀
👉 👌
That's every battle pass?
I've been playing MW2 (2009) for about 10 years for it's all pretty new for me
Did you expect everything to have prestige and resetting levels and all that like from cod? 
Oh fair, sorry
Thought you played MWIII etc
To be fair, that would provide more entertainment than this looooooooong-ass Season 6!
Played that too for years but old version ofcourse, i didn't like new mw3 that's why i'm playing bf2042 now
There's little to do other than just grind stuff for Tier 1...long-time BF player (since 1942), and I'm bored with this one.
Yeah, but a tiny team is working on this to maintain it
90% of the devs are on the next game
Sucks but atleast we're getting content at all
I'm fully aware of that, and the lack of content overall is pretty meh
There's nothing to do but T1 grinding
Yeah, I always hop off this game whenever I finish the pass
And go play other stuff
Anyways, I'm off to bed...gotta get up at 5:30am for work. Gah!
Nighty night everyone! 🙂


does anyone know how to fix the unable to load persistence data error on pc?
Nah, i just was confused that my rank as a player and battlepass tiers is like a 2 separate things
bro my game not starting
Skill issue
bro i launched bf2042 and my gpu on 100% and im at 7 fps 😭😭
on low settings
WITHA. 4070 SUPER
What's your cpu
enact a frame cap in the Nvidia control panel and turn on low latency mode
gawddamn, that's crazy optimisation from DICE right there, the best in the industry
Oh
I think I know what's causing that as well.
It turns everything on to ultra with rt on.
My 3080 hits the same issue too.
@still tulip your problem could be solved here
Nvidia stuff.
Vehicles?
3 floors? Didn't it already have 3?
Imagine a tuk tuk superiority or something
I love having lots of attachments in Battlefield 2042
I doughnut love that the attachments do the same thing as eachother, I wish they all had one or two stats to modify exclusively
Like it's weird that you can get more weapon accuracy from your grip, and also your barrel. Or more damage from your barrel, but also your ammo. Less recoil from your barrel and ammo and your grip
Dammit. Now I want a doughnut
I think R6 recently overhauled their attachments so scopes change how fast you ADS, barrels effect recoil/accuracy and grips change hipfire accuracy. Or something, I don't know
I also wish I knew what Firepower or Handling or any of that means. Handling is just ADS speed, right? Is it also reload speed?
Firepower is straight forward enough, though the M5A3 has 50 Firepower and I don't think I've ever 2-shot someone with it
Oh come on. Just went to have a listen of the battlefield podcast..... They got EXTRA developers to work on season 7 than usual........ Arica Harbour 2.0 had EXTRA people working on it?
to be fair it does seem like a well designed map
redacted was similar
Yeah it looks like a genuine fun map
That's what all the content creators are saying
Didn't like s5's map. S6 was meatgrinder, this one looks like a proper conquest map to me again 
they did say it's not designed for vehicles, so suppose how you interpret it
Oh no I mean that there's a decent amount of cover on the map
Also no jets, nice 
Bird mains in shambles when the sraw drops 
no jets = no stealth bomber on either sadly
I actually thought the stealth bomber was going to be a drone at first 
Based off some Russian stealth drone or something
I mean I haven't looked too deep into the map, but from a glance it seems like a lazy arica harbour reskin. Hope I'm wrong
it is far from a Arica harbour reskin
Good compression 

Meanwhile Aspyr having a 20GB patch for their 67GB port of a 2004 game 
less than 24 hours now, nice

dang 22k on steam rn
No new lmg when patch launches..is there even a point to playing?
tuktuk in the stadium 
Segway/hoverboard? 
I'll say it again. Stadium should have been the stand in for the hourglass remake.
Can someone explain to me the reason for this update 1.50
Nah, hourglass is cool.
I mean in a perfect world we'd get stadium right next to the skycrapers, but clearly they couldn't move the stadium off the sand as it was superglued
That's the enemy Dozer when I sneak a fire nade past him.
All the homies who redeploy when you see a dozer running at you rise up 
Does a shotgun stagger Dozer?
HAVEN!
Let's be honest, this is what armor piercing rounds should be useful for... but it still sucks

then we would need an indian map lol
Discarded
When is the stream today?
Not Indian enough 
^
its need curry too
indian elements
Needs the streets
shitting streets
I'm pretty sure one of the 2042 concept arts showed the war hit Delhi
So a map there would make sense lore wise.
because most of the time the same buffs on different attachment points have different debuffs. more accuracy from your grip decreases hipfire accuracy, more accuracy from your barrel decreases fire rate. more damage from your barrel decreases fire rate, more damage from ammo decreases mag size and reload speed. etc
Why so many 2042 maps have no jets on conquest? its almost half the maps by now 😔
They honestly suck anyway
The militaries are cutting costs to the mercenaries

they are very bad yeah, but its part of the battlefield experience imo
as long as they pee in better conditions than amazon employees
Flying those clunky giant wooden 3 seaters in BF1 felt better lol
I've never been around for the beginning of a season, when does this thing actually drop?
tomorrow
I honestly would rather wait until all of the content is ready
its been 160 something days of nothing
whats the point of drip feeding it, it sort of ruins the experience
to kep you coming back
Guess this is what happens when you ditch your game and leave like 20 people to work on it
yup
same thing with SWBF2
people fell in love with it at the end but didnt realize it was literally like 5 people working it lol
def gonna wait a while before i buy the next battlefield when if it ever comes out. never pre ordering again
does season 7 come out today ?
tmrw
tier 100 skin is for fucking zain are u kidding me
he already had a tier 100 skin
Sundance needs the love
whyd they take away her anti armor grenade
Cos it was underused and in general terrible. Its only purpose was as APS/flare bait, especially cos even ona hit...it did so little damage
still dumb tho
I would have preferrede if they made you chose the type of nade you take...then make the anti armor nade effectively what the anti-tank nade is now
AKA...dumb fire impact nade.
guys i saw the new map
it looks so shit
youll all see
it looks like 4 small areas made into 1 afterwards
Everyone has seen it...there have been dozens of hours of gameplay from it shared
all the maps are shit
^
true except noshahr
the worst of the portal maps
kinda the best
Doesnt work on CQ or rush
so many campers in this game it feels like r6
they enjoy playing like that you got them in every game
i hate the way theres no proper server browser...i get put in all the shit maps
Indeed, its one of...if not the worst part about 2042.
yea regualar server browser was best
its just unfinished and they dont care so ill prob play tmrw and then uninstall and i guess ill be back for the next battlefield game
you can host server put to much effort
too many games man
end of gaming era is near
literally all xp farm maps
people are just tired of greedy companies doing the bare minimum
time to go back to bf4
am i just dumb or cant find rush on bf2042
but you got much more and the effort is less
they change modes i dunno why
should put all at once
or is that breakthrough?
The idea of free server hosting with portal is a great idea...that NEEDED to be backed up by also having official DICE servers also visible on said browser. Both accessed/filtered with an "official" and "community" checkboxes.
there is free server but the servers lag
when you join full 128 lobby it stack overtime
at starts its smooth but the longer the match the more lag stacks
The Valve way.
is there any good portal conquest/rush EU servers that isnt XP/bot farming?
Probably not
Tell that to tf2
Tf2 used to be like that
Used :(
It's not anymore?
I hope in the new recoil system it kicks the gun in the same direction the recoil is going, so it would kick normally but also tilt left or right depending on where the shots are going. I can't wait to get my hands on the new recoil system
I’m so excited for tmr
Tmr?
new map won't change the game
No shit sherlock
3 years sherlock
I'm also excited for the Wildcat to go back to being an AA vehicle instead of a coinflip between AA and a bullshit semi-tank
you think animals in zoo know how many years they been in cage?
You tell us
i use the wildcat as a tank
3 years
You're gonna love the new season 😏
I use the wildcat as a uber
literally stupid choice
gaddam
4 more tiers in warzone and in done finally 😅 then i free to Play bf
Haha just in time
What's free to play battlefield? Will battlefield be free forever?
No it's just free for a weekend
Anyone faced wireless mouse& keyboard disturbed issue? I got this problem when I inject any kind of headsets.
Do it happen in all games?
When I play different games. Everything normal dude 😫
no wonder my cpu is at 100%%%%
I got the i7-13700hx should be strong enough to carry.
you can try to reduce the number of cores it's allowed to use
otherwise it will use everything
My CPU usage got better after I upgraded from 2666MHz ram to 3600
It just happened today. It goes normally at least a weak.
im on an amd ryzen 5 3600... should be enough to run bf2042...is it bad if i have 100%cpu usage?
I used to have that cpu and I was never at 100% cpu
check in command
But game runs like shit on a r5 3600
render.drawscreeninfo 1
you can set how many threads the game uses
cpu cores should be same number as threads
have been able to since a few patches ago
why r5 3600 specificaly tho?
mid-range pc in 2020 yes, mid-range now? no
Just buy the series x refresh 
man i just switch between ps5 and pc... pc usually and ps5 when im tired and in bed
Game needs 8 core cpu to run decently. I had r5 3600 and upgraded to a r7 5800x. Big difference.
running an rtx3060 and getting 100+ fps.... just not when im playing the fucking game lol
oh i was thinking of upgrading actually... is it a big difference really?
For me yes
changing cpu = changing mobo 🙂
trash talking my poor overclocked 8600k? 
R5 3600 is only 6 cores and game struggles to be smooth.. even with low settings
what mobo did u get for that
tbf the game has been running a lot better on 6-core cpus now
they have been stealth-improving the performance
at launch I couldn't stay at 60fps in 128p matches
now I can stay above 80fps
I didn't change the mother board.. was the same.. I have msi x570
sir ultra it was running 80 fps
I honestly stopped caring about performance
Perhaps... I upgraded my cpu like 1 and a half year ago
now it’s about the bugs that prevent me from playing the game
I cannot join modes
it requires me to restart the game each time
i have the rog strix b450f when i got it, it was 4rd gen ready...can u make it be 5th gen ready lol
If you have ps5 I'd play on ps5 instead
why?
framerate locked, stable performance
I think the game runs better on a ps5 than on a PC with r5 3600
Me too
I'll change to console when gta VI comes out
Which console you going for? Series x or PS5?
No idea.. I'll go for the one that has the better performance lol
PS5 , pro coming out this year
Yeah I've heard that
Switch 2 when
tbh no points in having xbox if u have a pc... unless u care about the old classic cods since its backwards compatible
PS5 & PC is in my opinion the best combo
I think the best thing about the xbox is the game pass? I dunno
that part is great ngl especially for the new games
I'm not a fanboy of any of the brands.. I'll go for the best price/performance.. don't really care if its ps or xbox
& cods will be on gamepass
Really?
yeah since microsoft bought Activision Blizzard
first party titles = aka owned by microsoft get released day one on game pass
correct me if i am wrong
I wonder where the budget for COD games is gong to come from if the games become day 1 GP releases.
bro
they make more money from all the store items than the game sale itself
20+ Euros for a simple weapon skin for 2 weapons and a character skin
Shit guys. I fixed the problem by Steam verifying the game files.
There's your problem... you bought the game on steam 
Yeah you should've bought on EA App. Best platform in the market
EA app updates so fast! I click update an the next day I can play
maybe it will come from the 3 trillion dollar company that owns them
sarcasm right?
They'll actually get more money in the long term now
definitely not.
I too can vouch for the ea app working 100% of the time without failing.
I especially love how after playing a game, it sets you to online even if you set it to invisible beforehand.
Truly one of the launchers of all time
Man only in bf2042 will I have a bug that makes me launch the game in season 6 somehow.
Nah. Actually s6
No battlepass event
but there is none of the season 7 content
Just the stuff that was added in 6
that's tomorrow
Ah. That makes sense then.
I saw the "Major update 7.0" and assumed yknow, it was actually in the game instead of a tease.
It did say welcome to season 7
how the fuck does the ac9 have ANY range at all????
i heard someone say that ea has been hacked is that true?

no.... just apex legends via source engine rce
You heard it but you didn't see it so what you heard was wrong
Is it defs out tomorrow including the battlepass
yes
But no lmg or bomber
EAC has a vulnerability
so far it seems only apex is affected
but if u wanna be safe, avoid bf2042 until the all clear
its not EAC
i think sundance with c5 is the most fun thing ever
also 2042 doesnt use Easy Anticheat anymore
it got replaced by EA anticheat
Is there a logo on game launch
Or what

i just dont want my systems to be hacked
it never hurts to be safe
if ur worried just avoid all EAC games until they fix it
the games use different anticheats and different game engines
almost every online games nowadays use EAC
Even a coop focused game?
l4d uses VAC
I think he meant back 4 blood lol which is insulting to l4d 
I played 80 hours of b4b
only for them to kill it
B4b reminds me of a wannabe cod zombie game
It really does
The snappy animations is a dead giveaway
broken stream audio broken game zzzzz
anyway, i'd put money on there being no way the apex thing was done through a game client RCE alone (or at all)
its built on source so its very possible
source hasn't had a serious RCE since the """RCE""" where people were stuffing shit into uploaded sprays
well maybe the pros were just cheating and got caught
ImperialHal wouldn’t switch to controller if he was just cheating. He’d stick to mouse and keyboard for its looting advantages.
He made so much concessions adopting a controller just to use its inherent aim assist to win tournaments over mnk folks.
when was that one
there was this one that was more serious
https://secret.club/2021/04/20/source-engine-rce-invite.html
Steam is the most popular PC game launcher in the world. It gives millions of people the chance to play their favorite video games with their friends using the built in friend and party system, so it’s safe to assume most users have accepted an invite at one point or another. There’s no real danger in that, is there? In this blog post, we will l...
use invite link to put console commands into startup, connect to rcon server, send zip, smash the stack, tada it's an RCE
watching S7 preview gameplay and holy shit I'm so glad they finally merged the base spawn and vehicle spawn menu into one icon
There were a surprising number of instances back in the early days where the squad lost or minimap straight up blocked you from using the old spawn tab
I just find it hard to navigate the spawn menu on controller when certain things like gunships and MAVs are all over the place, and sometimes I accidentally go too far and spawn on base instead of opening the vehicles list. Anything to streamline that is very appreciated
if u buy a bundle with skins for not unlocked Guns, does it unlock them? curiousity
nope you still need to unlock the guns
But the main guns are close to unlocking
Like I believe if you get the fast pass you get the two primaries
I think the update is in 12ish hours
🚨 #Battlefield 2042 Free Access 🚨
📅 It's all or nothing from March 21 - 24 on Steam, PlayStation, and Xbox
Whats the unlock path to get VHX unlocked? on a brand new account that started yestersay
the menu is so confusing
No idea, every item should be at collections
The list of guns, gadgets, vehicles and specialists
Some guns are locked by progression, others by assignments, it should be that every season item is locked behind an assignment
yeah but the names confuse me
say vhx requires me to have a smg challenge then it turns to a carbine then to an lmg like.. its difficult to track where i start if that makes sense
Copping this
Thanks

Nice hacks
the stadium details post on twitter "lighting has been completely redon" well I mean when the previous version had no lights on it at all...
The sun???
inside the stadium 
lighting = game engine term for how light is rendered 
Hell yeah no flares.
Thank you for the akshually
eeerrrm ☝️
stealth heli aint useless
Not good
it has the single highest burst damage in the game vs armor huh
That’s why lil bird is more useful, due to flares with repair system and highest mobility heli
well lil bird can dunk on everything
its 2 completly different roles
so sure
You get more pros than cons with lil bird
can i see your nightbird stats please
Why do people rely on stats 
because it shows expierience with what you are trying to claim as fact
I played both enough to say which is better
then post it 🙂
so level 137 and less than 500 kills on each, sounds about right
sounds good
Let me guess, when stealth bomber drops, your gonna say it’s op even tho it’s worse than any other aircraft in the game?
Due to stats
based on what we know about the bomber's gear, it doesn't sound like it'll break the balance
no it'll be fine lol
We know it's not like bf4 bomber
No flares. It’s probably weaker than the current jet health, due to it having more speed. Vulnerable to aircrafts. I will be laughing my ass off it it don’t have AA tech
lot of maybes nothing concrete
Obviously it’s not concrete since it’s not live in the game.
from the sounds of things it's even got it's own vehicle pool
yes it does
its in the jet catagory
so it'll most likely be spawn, use once for a precision strike, then it's shot down
it's in the jet category but it uses a token system
So not a close resemblance to a bomb running plane
Watch it get spawned and get insta killed 
Most likely its more support oriented than straight infantry farming
if it can carry 2 types of bombs at a time
no i mean EMP + one of those
We need gas 
Yes
Mustard gas 
Gas mask isn’t in the game 
yes it is
Once in contact, you can't be healed
falck skin

👍
That’s not what I meant
where do you see info about token system
do i have to say i was joking
We have to be real here 
Where plane that circled the map
My prediction is that it will be a shit bomber just like stealth heli is after its nerf that it got.

https://fxtwitter.com/BFBulletin/status/1767927299750408302?s=19 same place as everywhere else
oh, so by token they just mean how many there can be at a time
if maps have 2 jet slots, you can have 1 jet 1 bomber or 2 jets, not 2 bombers
Yes reserved spot
its not reserved
Yes
If 2 jets or 2 bombers can’t be deployed at the same time. Means it have a reserved spot. So it can’t overlap each other.
do you know what reserved means
Do you not understand?
when you call a resturant and make a reservation, what happens
Set of making its own category it’s reserved only for one of each to balance it out.
its a limitation, not reservation
ok now tell us where the rest of the update is lmao
So why not make a different category at that point?
is this for the new season?
because its replacing the attack jet
same reason there wasnt seperate slots for stealth jet and attack jet
How when you can have one out in the battlefield also
risk-reward, you are giving up more air superiority in exchange for potentially (nobody knows how it is yet) more ground support
one jet with hydras is enough to keep the skys clear against everything but a nightbird anyway
I assume it's cluster might be fairly strong if they are purposfully balancing everything else this way. A glass cannon of sorts
yes, update 7.2 in may specifically
In maps when there are 2 jets, they’ve have locked it to 1 token. 1/2 is a jet as the other is 1/2 bomber. Why not make 2 different categories. Or they are saying, 2 jets can deployed at once but if a bomber wants to be deployed, it’s only locked to one bomber at a time.
I would assume that explosive = infantry, Incendiary = Armor
the main thing is if we get EMP by default or not to run with them
is the new rocket launcher gonna be the same as liz’s rockets
there's no mention there of incendiary lol
It only says “bombs”
ah okay thats cool
it has cluster and emp bombs only

#battlefield-legacy-titles2042 Season 7
XFAD-4 Draugr ✈️
🔹 Jets category.
🔹 EMP.
🔹 Incendary bomb, big fireball.
🔹 Infantry-focused, but especially support strikes.
he doesn't mean literally incendiary
the clusters have a trigger proc for fire when they land is what he means
we seen it in the trailer
yeah looks like it explodes and then has a thermite effect
it's cluster/emp only there is no incendiary bomb
The XFAD-4 Draugr (Stealth Bomber) is coming "later" in #Battlefield2042 Season 7. It's equipped with EMP bombs, no radar missiles ✈️
Thanks Deco and @ArmoredKill for the update 😎
it doesnt leave fire on the ground like the incendiarys that are ingame already
No anti vehicle bomber thank fuck.
it's just radial fire
he means specifically if the main cluster bomb detonations do not kill anyone in the initial impact there is a "incendiary" (fire explosion) which deals damage to targets in the vicinity
sneaky bomb drop ontop of a gunship

realistically you probably can't do it like that
the camouflage (active camo) cloak is too big to be seen before it triggers
I wonder if its going to have the old JDAM aiming screen from bf4, or if its gonna be more like stealth heli
jdam definitely not lol
going by the trailer the cluster bomb has 2 charges that it drops in a chain detonation so you can't use it with the jdam aiming screen
it will need to be the stealth heli
why not?
the jdam aiming screen takes into account the velocity and angle of where it is dropped, you aren't doing that with this
it's a entirely flat vehicle
just doesn't make sense
it probably will have a aiming screen but it won't be like the jdam
if its still scheduled for 7.2, hopefully some content creator will get early access
7.2 is confirmed for may so we'll see
ill play 2042 in may when they decide to drop the full fucking update
The spawning is broken in Reclaimed TDM
Soon™️
Only a few hours left
Just got my first specialist and gun t1 this round, way to end this long ass season haha
Not bad
I T1'd the GVT first, before S1 occurred
Why is this game glitching the fuck out on me all of a sudden? Crashed between rounds, then doesn't load the next map.
I'm going to end this season having gotten a T1 on several guns, and the M60 is going to be among them pretty quick.
and I T1'd several specialists.
(inb4 "sweaty" comments)
45 kills remaining to T1 the M60 and then I let a randomizer choose my next T1
I have a list of the guns I haven't T1'd yet, and there are two exceptions:
1: no sidearms (I've already picked a sidearm to T1 that I've yet to do)
2: no S7 weapons (they are on my list, but I will not advance one of them yet)
Imagne going to T1
couldn't be me
¯_(ツ)_/¯
I was a completionist with BF4
You'd maybe laugh if I told you I had the dog tag (500 kills) for every primary and secondary in that game.
For a time, I was running Mare's Leg and Phantom
I did twice get a collateral headshot with the Mare's Leg
I hope I random a gun that is wildly different from what I've been using lately. I've been largely on SMGs, ARs, and LMGs.
Outside that list would be the DMRs, the two shotguns I don't have T1 on, and the Rorsch
Fingers crossed I roll the Rorsch
im aiming for that right now in bf3
after that i may do bf4
I did the platinum stars for the guns in BC2 at least twice over
Under two different soldier names
idk what my progress is in BF3
Hey random question
Season 7 starts at 9 but the battle pass doesn't start until 12.
So is the AK5C coming out with the season or with the 🇵ass?
Season pass always for new weapons/vehicles. The new LMG/stadium map/stealth bomber is mid season update
When does the season drop est? Is it 12 am?
ok but how is this even going to work?
dice just changing shit up all the time ...special event just for those 2?
For mid season stuff?
ye
Maybe challenges, idk 🤷♂️
has anything been added like this before?
No
like the mid season events were just skins
For season content. No not like this.
I’m just guessing challenges. I could be wrong 😑
so are those 2 unlocks legit just not done in time
or is this one last epic drip feed? 
we are speculating here!
Maybe more tuning and perfecting idk
Although, if the reason why because it drys out players of everything is released on the first day. I see that reason more tho
like the vhx and....DMR ive already forgotten its name, were perfected?
Obviously when it hits live. Changes need to be made anyways. It’s nothing new
yeah but those guns were hilarious
then again rm68 was a thing
and so was the avancy
wait maybe youre right this is all the same shit 
I always went back to scar, ak and am40 
i either t1'd it super quick or got bored with it being so op...played something else, and used it again to t1 after its nerf "and it still feels op??" 
VHX was boring to me. I don’t feel rewarding by getting kills with it.
it was ...really dumb
SVD is my next T1
It’s a good gun but it’s also meh to me because of that. When VHX dropped I was using K30 and AM40 against it and deleting them.
VHX is fun but it’s also a cheese casual gun to use.
I’m waiting till someone be like: lets compare stats or imma check your stats to see if your point is valid or not.
Like ok dude, stats don’t mean everything. It’s just a personal thing not something to rely on and make it a competition thing.
same, i hate useing meta.
Off meta is more fun

im so excited for tmr!
I had a great time using the VHX
I don’t always like meta either but the VHS is a cool gun. And that alone makes it cool
im enjoying the AC42
bruh
Weak asf. One shot most likely
It sounds like it’s strictly to bomb and dip away.
When I unlock the SCZ-3 I'll go back to Irish for a bit until I T1 him
why is redacted ass?
unbalanced af meat grinder?
Servers offline?
is s7 already out
idk i logged in a couple mins ago and nothing seems to have changed
uwahh
no
oh noooooo, not a bomber bombing and dipping away, like what bombers do

Nice
Isn't that what stealth bombers do? 
they been doom posting about it since that tweet came out 12 hours ago
Doomposting about content we aren't even getting this week, probably in like 4 weeks time
is there predownload or something
For PS yeah.
6+
so any tips when it comes to field of view vs zoom scope?
Was there any specific time for the release of season 7?
i heard may 27th but idk source
is it safe to play when teh update drops for PC? 💀
what
i just got the game on pc and im forced to play on low settings because i keep getting the warning "high cpu usage", even then I'm not able to play because it shows up anyway. its a ryzen 7 5800x
wrong chat mb
yes, the game doesnt use EAC
alrighty i kinda thought they did use EAC but hopefully we can just play today
Doesn't the model show machine guns
so there should be that
4 am CST
in 3 hours
they used to, now they added their own Anti cheat
omgggg i cant wait any longer
you got a few hours
3 hours for the 7.0 update
ah ok
oight matey thanks
the 7.0 updfate
Actually it’s in 4 months
the season launches few more hours
3 hours for me.
have the battlepass rewards been shown?
Yeah.
in the preview where content creators were shown
They're alright. Tier 100 is a skin for zain.
I'm still under the impression it was for a bundle.
That shorty skin, charm and zain skin were meant for a bundle.
ah
ohhh okok
glad the weapons are under the 20 mark
a lot of new weapons
hate when they are past level 30
"system purge" skin?
i hope they're good
yeah
looks fine to me mate
2 weapons for now, plus a new launcher
are vault weapons actually vaulted? lmao
yes
Lol, nah i don't mind the new season. it's good. but we need more

Watch them cuck the xp gain for the tokens.
Oops
classic dice moment
I saw they reverted that compared to s6
Season 6 was so shit in that aspect.
like back to classic grind
any new maps coming out?
2 if you are old gen
and staduim but not really a new map
or never played hourglass after the rework
just a cut of from hourglass
but upgraded and old gen and newer players can play it finally. it will be new to them, not to us tho, except the overall experience as it was empty most of the time
agreed
like straight up tumbleweed worthy
one which is reused arica harbor assets and one is the stadium of hourglass with some small additions
whats with the resued assets argument, it's fucking stupid
it saved every dev from every bf game time
that fucking clay building in bfv and bf1 was resued, I CANT ESCAPE IT
every sand map in those games had it
im sure it will be fine im just saying its not the most inspired layout ever as far as i can see
i see suez in haven more than arica
there aren't many inspired maps or complete original maps in bf
at first glance you thing, oh yeah it's totally different
then you play it and it's like, ooooh its like that one map
the expectations are higher when you wait 6 months
or close to it
hence why people complain about stuff like that
mhm, honestly im guessing it's a lack of devs as they are on the next game
the gap was big
6 months is not a good thing
or its the lack of devs and the pushing of seasons so when it ends development it's the end of the year.
if s8 drops i bet it's going to last until December or near December
including another damn gap
Tell me when the update is out
Installable in an hour and a half, season goes live 2 hours later
in 1h
Looking forward to having some new content...I was getting super-bored!
Tbh I haven't played 2042 in about a week
When's season 7 releasing exactly? How many hours from now
One hour, battlepass actives later
Awesome. Thank you very much!
Do you know when exactly does the battlepass come out?
Im not sure, in 3-5 hours i think. For season 4 it was 4 hours after the content droped
after the weekly reset today
Everyone else playing when the update releases despite the whole EAC hacking theory?
EAC hacking theory???
no
the game doesnt use easy anti cheat so no worries
and its a issue in apex, not eac
I've not heard of this...hence asking
apex legends tournament players got hacked during the match
so people are pissing their pants over it
REC exploit
