noice
damn im really bad with it
duality of men
sorry pookie i had to
you were doing too well with it
Someone posted it earlier lol
if ive capped my fps at 120
should I keep my refresh rate locked to 120 or should I use 240
120, never go over as this causes frame tearing
alright ty
Guys is the Shortcut Kit: Ultimate Bundle worth it??
I got it included when I bought the game on steam
for starters is pretty good, but depends on how much it's costing for you
is there anyway i can send a clip
the sun in this game is wild
flashing harder than a-
idk
Send me in dm I send it for you
ye
Will I get those plans and tank or do I aready got them?
ima need to send you a friend request
thanks
with someone else a "bug" happens, for example... you are on the screen to choose where you want to spawn and then you open the vehicle options menu and see that there is a tank available but when you press to spawn, a red message appears saying something like "active birth time" but you're simply not born in the fucking vehicle so depending on your answer, my conclusion is that this system is bugged
@robust vapor @glacial quarry getting on in 10 doing some work rn
Im noticing a lot of ppl are hip firing rpgs??
What is a multikill in bf2042
I killed vehicles with multiple people in them and still dont get the multikill progress
I got down entire transport with 5 people
nothing
is this bugged?
3+ people within a very short amount of time is a multikill. A vehicle wih 5+ people should be a multikill.
Will DICE release an update to their anticheat? Because the number of cheaters increased significantly after season 7.
When I reported cheaters to EASY Anticheat, they usually sent an email notifying us of the player's ban, but now we report cheaters and I continue to see the same players in matches without anything happening.
I suppose in the meantime, do solo play
A big problem with cheats is the subtle cheaters
The ones with esp (who don’t lock on behind walls), no recoil etc
They’re everywhere
everywhere?
Think about it
They won’t be caught
Blame truth made a video on it but for cod
His point still stands for battlefield though
If they're everywhere why am I not seeing them? Are they not actually that disruptive?
Because it’s subtle
You won’t always notice someone with esp
No recoil
Slightly faster sprint speed
Eh if someone doesn't have recoil it doesn't really make them good
True
But it’s still there
The point of cheating for most is to get an advantage normal players can’t
They probably won't be playing the game as effectively as someone with legitimate skill and mastery over its mechanics
If the killer isn't Rao and they walling you means it's a hacker
Either Rao or Paik
Rao and Paik just have wall hacks built into the game
Yea im not disregarding that
I'm just saying like if someone is using subtle hacks that don't disrupt the entire game I personally don't care. Sure, ban them for cheating, but if I don't notice it then it doesn't really matter in the long run.
Yeah
I was making the point that there’s way more than you think
Like there’s more than the normal hackers that spin at Godspeed locking onto people’s heads
nah
I believe its 3+
Okie thx
Where's the hud mate
i think they play with ultra wide so they just crop it out when they post a video
The black bars added by discord makes it look cinematic 
What is the gun called? The gun that looks like the M4?
this one?
That doesn't look like the M4
this?
Nah can't be
@quaint vectorHelp me out buddy here will ya
Huh.?
with this part
i don't know guns that good
DFR Strife LMG.?
theres no gun that looks like an m4 ingame afaik
I don't even know what they want/think/ask for...
DFR is def the closest to looking like an m4
@cloud niche What are you looking for?
This guy said someone posted a pic of a gun in BF2042 that looks like the M4 I fail to understand which gun he means
Ye but someone said there is a gun
DFR Strife lmg thats coming in an update looks similar to one
Idk someone else said there is a gun that looks like the M4
We were talkin about DFR Strife LMG
Ye I can see it. Just need to change the mag and then the barrel looks a bit different.
pog
Idk it's a LMG
This shit should have gotten full auto option, not G428
i highly doubt it will
What is the first dmr called?
Ho I'm telling you dude, it better have one...
DM7 in game
bf5 has like 80 something guns
and 2042 has 63
will be 64 when the new gun drops
And yet no mg 3
Now is that including only guns you can use in portal?
no
Oh good good
I do have to agree with carpenter though
Not that i’m saying it’s a bad thing
Bf4 just had 180 guns with more or less the same stats
Yes
What barrel and mag is meta on AK5C?
I detect sarcasm
im for real
even the guy who made the weapon stat sheet recomends it lol
Uninstall? What attachment is that?
Subsonics with wrapped is pretty nice
Imma be real the emoji you put made me think you were pranking me
AP and HE UBGL
But what is type 4?
The heavy Suppressor
Type 4 diabetes
The one that looks like a Lego block
theyve always been good
X to doubt
i mean theres really no downside to using em
all suppressors are doodoo except the wrapped
Wait thought you said use type 4 not wrapped?
So its good on ak but doodoo on other guns?
Noted 
he's correct, but subsonics are bugged, they do not currently have a penalty to being used when they normally do, the type 4 suppressor is a rename of a heavy suppressor, so tldr with it and subsonic you will be totally invisible on the minimap when firing, close combat and the type 4 work well for 20-30m distance engagement ranges, if you want to interswitch barrels the warhawk can be used a secondary
if you want to take it to the next level blasco subsonics and type 4 will make you invisible to the minimap aswell as not being able to be spotted, work accordingly
Rao passive yes if outside your beacon radius
So if you shoot a rao inside your beacon radius you don't get spotted?
Are you sure?
correct
Okay, good to know
blasco beacon shuts down any and all spotting for the team
Well I'll be damned. That's one hell of a setup
the hack will go through for a split second then disappear
just be aware of your combat situations, heavy suppressor at range is a big penalty dropoff, but it's optimal for most engagement distances
Well, suppressors only "help" you to a certain degree... cause killcam exist.
it also isn't really great at extreme close range
expect to lose to the usual smgs (scz/k30) if not using close combat etc
When you say close mag as a backup option are we talking normal close combat or the extended one?
normal only, extended rn is bugged don't use it
Whats the bug?
the same as subsonic, it is standard ammo rather than what it's supposed to be
Extended is bugged? For all weapons?
no just cc extended
Ah ok
So subsonic is bugged but only for penalties? Meaning you still have the perks?
yes, it's standard but has the attributes of ss, tldr
Lol cool
cc ext is bugged the opposite, it isn't cc, just regular ammo at 41
when it's fixed just remember to probably remove it, ss and hs is extremely bad for dropoff range normally
Yeah, it will be fixed on the update next week? Probably no?
unsure exactly don't think this specific bug has been mentioned, could be a while yet
probably not till 7.1 I'd guess at a minimum
Okay
Speaking of updates. Any word on pondhawks being added to haven as shown in the trailer?
7.2 update I believe
Sick
That means probably mid/end of May
Yeah not too fussed when it happens just that its ever happening lol good enough for me
I think all the supports should have falck's revive time
She would be obsolete then
Cause you refill ammo and gadgets with angel and Irish when you revive someone
If Angel and Irish had the same revive time of falck then no point to play with her
I’d still play falck if that was the case
Me giving someone else gadget ammo on revive wouldn’t be enough to make me want to replace stims
You have the trophy system aswell
Irish is already the best defensive support specialist
If he had the same revive time as falck
Would be the best specialist probablu
Overall
In that case I would be using Irish for the aps, not specifically revives. So I don’t think it would make much of a difference
Unless you like only go for revives and never get into combat, maybe
I don't care about stims when you have the health box
Doesn’t recharge quick enough for me, but it’s relative depending on how you play
It's quick enough imo
I’ll put it this way, ammo is never really a limiting factor for me, so I might as well just use the tool that gives me more heals
Well I rarely play support anyway.. only when missions demand it.. but when I do I go irish
I rather use zain for run and gun.. kill a mofo to get health lol
Also the xm37 is cheesy af.. but fun
I cant play medic cos everytime I try I realise that no one is taking out their vehicles
A lot of it is just reactive picking
Zain’s my go to, but if player density is low on a certain map and long range minor damage is common, falck fixes up that chip damage
i cant play 2042 tanks now
played too much warthunder
i just had the irristable urge to reach for binoculars
also jet feels werid because more used to wt flight model
A classic #Battlefield staple returns in Season 7: Turning Point 💥🚘🚁
The Predator SRAW’s wire-guided missile will help you disable and eliminate both land and air vehicles.
thank you twitter, very cool
I enjoy sitting behind a solid structure as close to deployment as possible with Lis shooting Lis rockets at snipers
may lol
Brutal expectations there to have all the content now 
We waited 6 months for new season but somehow they still split the content over the season

just play a different game lol
DICE and EA are very proconsumer to incentivise us not to spend more time and therefore our money with the game 
I do, I just hope on every week, complete weeklies and then I fuck off and go on RDR2
Yeah EA are SURE really sensitive with spending patterns of their consumers

they've not taken over this franchise yet
if the next game is successful it's probably inevitable though
What are you talking about ?
financial targets games have are dependent on how successful they are, if the next title is a booming success it's inevitable that microtransactions will get worse
how are they bugged? subsonic being as good or better than standard ammo isn't unique to AK5
subsonic has a damage penalty per bullet, it shows you this on the stat page, it's just bugged currently and doesn't do this
Thanks for ruining my day lad
¯_(ツ)_/¯
I recall EA getting penalties in like 2017 ?
in-game stat page? because that is never accurate
After Battlefront 2 microtransactions polemicy
Why authorities aren't doing anything anymore about it ?
it is accurate for this, SS has always had a per damage penalty to make up for it hiding tracers, it's just bugged for this season
There's risks of addictions for thousands of consumers and tbh it's already the case with games such as Fifa where players are able to spend 100€ a week to get a random player from a mystery box
that wasn't for microtransactions it was for gambling mechanics
How is that still a thing now ?
but that's not true? M5A3 subsonic damage has been better than standard ammo for ages at the same ROF
Yeah but I think Fifa still use those, doesn't it ?
AC-42 subsonic ammo is better than standard too
yes and it still has a larger penalty at distance than standard
this has always been the case
it just isn't here
That's fucking dumb, and for skins like in COD for example, even though there's no gambling mechanic there's still a phenomenon of addiction with many players that just have to buy multiple skins every week like they need it to survive
So they should do something
Loot boxes were not abandoned because of legal issues. They were abandoned because battlepasses and rotating skin shops are more profitable
I mean that's literally just not true and this isn't exclusive to ARs, AC9, MP9, G428 etc all have better damage and ranges with subsonic, but usually the ROF is lower..
That's crazy, microtransactions have never disappeared, they just transformed
all have better damage and ranges with subsonic, but usually the ROF is lower..
what exactly are DICE gun designers smoking
what is this nonsense?
Like the advertisment in those South Park episodes where publicity is trying to take over everything
pretty sure you lose bullet velocity with subsonic?
also range?
yes you lose velocity but that rarely matters, point is subsonic damage AND range is even better than standard on some weapons
maybe I'm misrepresenting I don't mean DPS
why the fuck do they have better range?
the velocity is what I mean by damage per bullet
so basically the bug is, you don't lose bullet velocity and range? is that it?
yes
how come the subsonic have better damage and range than standard?
standard velocity is higher
who knows
well..
it varies by weapon and you have to check sorrow's spreadsheet to know exact damage values
e.g. (22 damage per bullet) with subsonic for the m5a3 means 88 damage will be dealt at range but 18x5 with standard will still deal 90 because those shots will register faster than ss
tldr
well, to be fair i used the subsonic on the g428 in season 6, iirc had the same damage as the high power (or was the standard?)
is this pre nerf or?
and i barely noticed the difference in the bullet velocity
subsonic is better than standard for g428, but it has lower ammo capacity
after nerf
^ g428 has higher standing power than most weapons per bullet
yeah
the main issue for SS under normal circumstances for the ak5c is it's rpm is already not great and you would notice the velocity penalty normally compared to standard
nevermind including the heavy suppressor which further decreases damage at range
did dice say it's bugged? because looking at the stat sheet SS does have lower velocity
according to Enders and ghost it's bugged currently, I can't notice any difference between them, they're probably just listing the normal stats
pretty sure sorrow doesn't use bugged stats iirc
he usually points out bugged stats, lots of weapons have dysfunctional extended/shortened barrels for example
the master key issue is there and afaict standard/ss are indistinguishable so hopefully it gets fixed
I have a 55/45 feeling once it's patched close combat and warhawk will become meta but we'll see
warhawk? isn't that the comp that controls/reduce recoil but decrease accuracy?
yes, cc increases the rpm very significantly for the ak5c it turns it into a pseudo smg, warhawk reduces the innate recoil you get in addition from cc, tldr
humm
but the penalty to accuracy.. is it worth it tho?
i never run the warhawk cause, i mean, its pretty easy to control recoil in 2042
you'll never notice the accuracy diff realistically with it so it's not really a factor
close combat has very respectable damage at distance aswell surprisingly
use the lwg grip as your secondary below the master key if you want basically a 0 recoil smg
ill test it
surprised it wasn't the defacto choice tbh
i was using the armor piercing grenade launcher to deal with vehicles.. since assault now only carries 2 c5
master key/lwg/AP GL are fine choices
half effective against air surprisingly aswell
the ap gl?
huh.. never thought about using it that way... i'll keep that in mind if someone decide to fly low
most folk won't suspect it either, just expecting engineers
it doesn't have a tracer to it surprisingly so they won't see it if it hits
noice
i know they said they changed the gling for scopes.. now only 6x and above should have glint right?
but the other day i was using 5x with the sws
yes.. but there are some vague reports it's not working so run on the assumption it's still bugged
and im not sure the 5x doesn't have glint... i mean.. the second i scoped, i had like 2 snipers shooting me... and i was behind cover.. so not in the open where everybody could see me
yeah im sure is not working properly
cause theres no way they would've spotted me if it didn't had glint
I seen some folk say in here they had glint with non 6x so I'd assume it's not working
2042 feels so flat and lifeless but it's all i got to play
did everything in bf1, bfv is full of cheaters and it makes me sad to see it unfinished
bf4 is full of crackheads
taking half the content of season 7 and delaying it for 2 months is really shitty
did everything in bf1
have you tried just playing for fun?
i did for a very long time
dunno if i can have fun with it anymore
Only so long you can take it I suppose
isn't it full of cheaters on PC?
I have not encountered that many. Most of it is comm servers now
never understood how comm servers work in bf1 and V
IDK the details but actively moderated servers are better for keeping out cheaters in general
i do remember it being a very taboo topic in the eyes of DICE tho
we just wanted bf3/4 style of comm servers for bf1 and V but we never got it
the double xp is only for normal level not the battlepass right
i think so?
that's so lame lol
idk for sure
you'll be able to return to bf5 on the 3rd of april
eh
they're bringing over EA anticheat to it
i know but bfv makes me sad
even without cheaters, its still BFV. Its eh.
makes me wish DICE kept working on it instead of pulling the plug
I agree but the cheater situation should hopefully mostly disappear
Russians wouldnt have made it good tbh
who wanna bet we'll see review bombing by chinese players when the anti-cheat drops
(nor do we actually have any evidence they were planned)

won't make a diff
it worked for overwatch because China is a outsized market
china
but far too late. The pacific could not fix the issues with the base game, which is why it had its own playlist so you could ignore the base.
And even then its the most overrated gunplay in the series by far
I suspect the bf5 playerbase will see a sizeable decrease after this though
felt that most of the gunplay from bfv was just assaults running SLR's with scopes
it's not a coincidence peak bf5 times are when it's afternoon in china
of course
why are Chinese players so obsessed with cheating
culture
go on
very different culture with a different approach to "winning". Its a similar reason to why p2w fps games are so populat there
they like to get ahead
there's a reason most of the academic cheaters in US, EU, and OCE-based schools are from China
because they want to be better
it's statistically improbable for them to get ahead by improving when their population is like that
so they cheat
what was said before & because it's impossible for companies to go after them
so at this point it's just fight fire with fire?
unlike if its a US org or something else if they domicile in china you stand no choice ever seeing them face repercussions
Chinese government will never prosecute their own citizens involved in foreign affairs
yeah, or we can cut off the fire and let it burns itself out
but it's such a big market
China numba one
not just in gaming, I'm from education, chinese students cheat a whole lot but if they are expelled they will just move to a different university and start over
remember when cheats were just fun features that devs included in single player games
what's actually funny is companies like tencent did actually go after them but they're a big boogeyman apparently
You cannot moderate a billion people effectively
china
could be worse i guess
i see a lot of people complaining about cheaters in 2042 but since it launched i've only seen like 2 for sure cheaters
most hackusations are towards players who are just cracked out sweats that have perfected the playstyle of a particular weapon or vehicle
and can not be killed
i've probably been hackusated before but i always have my chat turned off
too distracting
blatant cheaters seem to roam in the 128 player servers. Theyre also rarer since the update cause there are a bunch of new players
its the only place Ive seen them
same
first one was right around game launch
second one i saw was around season 1 launch
The unique sight for the akc5 is a 1.25 sight disguised as 2x lol
i like how the bf twitter account plugged the SRAW launcher today but no one cares because no one has unlocked it yet unless they paid for it
or has been playing nonstop
one of my favorite things to do in the bf games was tank but the mbt in 2042 feels so unsatisfying
not even like balance wise it feels so lame
idk what it is but it doesn't feel like a tank
doesn't have the weight and intimidation factor of older bf tanks
I saw a couple SRAWs already strangely enough
so I guess some people really do buy bp levels
i don't think i've seen any so far
I've seen a few
also MBTs are a lot better this patch since assaults can't one-man c4 you anymore
Only seen few clips where people use it against aircraft but the zoom is too high so you almost never see the missile hitting.
no i think the balance is fine but they don't feel as cool as older games
Or industry....copy someone elses design and just make it yourself
or get commissioned to run X thousands of pieces through your production plant...then just double the order keep half for yourself and start selling it on the market before the actual customer even gets their shipment 
it do be like that
Just wait for the stealth bomber

Those unguided bombs on the Huron are large enough of a pain
Sometime this chat is everything expect Battlefield
dont be a mini mod 
2042 needs a Tunguska
1100 ticket win...fucking hell RU didnt even show up
i am no mini mod, its just funny
only managed 22-4 ...and 2 of those deaths was the same fuck camping on a staircase with a masterkey ak5c 
Claymores work like a charm in Haven. Especially in conquest
Where would I report a visual bug for a gun? I have a short video too
Tik tok
Nightshift 🙃 would rather Play😅
What ?
suppressors say minimap stealth out to "" meters
do i want a higher or lower number for maximum stealth
Ever seen zavod night?
Yes, very dark
tldr:
the wording is misleading, it means from where you are shooting
Enemies further than the range displayed will not see you on radar when you fire. You want the number to be smaller so that you can be closer to enemies and have them not see your radar signature when you fire
just be aware that to get smaller you need to use heavy suppressors, there are damage penalties for that
there is 30 and 15m, if you want total invisibility you need to use subsonic in combination with the heavy
subsonic with non heavy will be 15m
I liked just using subsonic ammo and a muzzle brake on the AM40 so I could make my muzzle flash disappear
Sometimes it takes jumping into an uncomfortable zone (slower TTK) to experience what type of stealth 2042 provides, and if it's not to your liking, try something else. Some other weapon might provide better TTK and stealth than the one you're using
yeah the mbt needs some health buffs
with the amount of explosives in the game the only tank you can use effectively is the ram
the mbts movement is actually pretty good now
but if you get a good squad thats communicating the mbt can tear an enemy team to shreds
Yes it was fun tbh
now imagine
the uhhhhh, that dock map
much darker

That shit is too lighted
ye
Reject the light, embrace night vision googles
reject modern night time represntation
embrace classic-ish night shading
Yeah fuck that shit
Where's night map ?
hi friends.
Hey
just put a colored green gel filter over your screen
how are you?
Or add a night map
😎
Good thanks and you ?
we have manifest already and i still can't see shit
you are playing?
no im dying because i ate a whole pizza
Quite the opposite for me, map got too much visibility for a night map
The thing that confuses me about people wanting night maps is
- You want to have worse visibility.
- You offset that by using night vision.
You're just making it pointlessly more difficult to play the game.
Just adding a green filter + noise would have the same effect and would be just as pointless
Just go play Insurgency Sandstorm
Man the Javelin is awful
Yes. Zavod Graveyard shift was one of BF4’s best maps, because it forced you to play differently.
I don’t want to play the same round back to back to back. Sometimes I want some change. Same issue I had with 2042 launch maps. Every match felt the same because every conquest map had every vehicle/same out of vehicles.
That's what I play portal for
I miss BF1’s weather effects
Those helped tremendously with making maps feel different
I mean, outside of the tornados, I can only think of Orbital having the Rain sometimes. And Hourglass having the sandstorm everyone hated.
Manifest has storms (with big lightning). Orbital, Spearhead, Flashpoint all have rain
I just like night maps
Nivelle Nights and Prise are some of my fav maps in BF1
Tehran Highway was sick in BF3
They don’t gotta be so dark you can’t see anything like graveyard shift. (But I would prefer if there was one)
Manifest is a night map and it looks fine.
but manifest doesn't count according to some people
they want to be blind
and possibly play a completely different game
I mean manifest is more like dusk but I’d consider it a night map
yeah looks pretty night time to me
This may be a dumb question but when does season 7 end or is there no definite timeline? (Started playing when the game came to xbox battlepass so I know next to nothing)
You can learn a lot by checking the battlepass. 14 weeks.
I tried to check but couldn't see anything because of my crap eyesight. Thanks for telling me how long it lasts though 🙂
Nothing announced beyond season 7. But it will likely end with season 8
Ahh ok, I wanted to ask as I saw the AK 5C and I love the thing but didn't know how long I had left to get it
It only started about a week ago, not even
So I am freaking out for no reason? Fun...
you cant miss any guns,vehicles, specialists or equipment
cause they just make you do some assignment if you didnt get em through the battlepass
Chances are they'll go from S7 to a between seasons thing yet again
Assuming they even do a season 8
I still wish we'd see more vault weapons. It made the game feel like more content was being added rather than the drip feed shit we've been getting lately.
Preferably, get more vault weapons from BC2 and BF1942 portal since those games have largely been neglected for vault selections
BC2 has two vault weapons that weren't in BF3. Some others are classified as BC2 guns in-game but they obviously take from BF3 more than BC2.
I do also find it strange that they didn't add a single vault weapon for the utility class of weaponry (e.g: a shotgun).
My picks for vault weapons from 1942 would be the StG .44, M1 Garand, and the No. 4 rifle.
AUG and UMP both in BF3 and BC2 could easily be vault weapons
Yea
I'm shocked the F2000 isn't in Portal
There is a lot of weird inclusions and exclusions for Portal
The RPK from BC2V is in the game but not the QBU-88, for instance?
and where the jackhammer
I do have a few examples of what guns not to put in AOW
fucking piece of shit teammates that are unable to even contest cap points....even till around 650 tickets each then its just steadily falling for us
fuck staying around for the rest of that shit match
I want the M24 from Portal and the M249 Saw
The other XM8 variants (redundant; could put a regular mag option for the XM8 LMG)
DAO-12 (do not want)
SCAR variants (because SFAR-M)
lack of PGMs and Air to Ground tho :/ Jets are lacking
What's good Bf 2042
Just off-hand; I'm not at my computer right now so I couldn't tell you what guns are in-game via Portal right now
also the BFBC2 had SOFLAM looking device to call in mortar strike
From memory, I've cited the M1 Garand, M95, and the AN-94 as the next options they should add to AOW. Those guns are in the game already via Portal, so they could hypothetically add them to AOW easily.
I really don’t think we need WW2 guns in AOW
I need y’all to imagine how fuckin cursed it would look with modern attachments
- the Garand in 2042 doesn’t even ping so what’s the point
You can be a purist all you want
But there’s one problem
Youre not the only person playing this game
True
Some people will go hog wild, I'll admit. That happens to old guns IRL sometimes, too. Not always.
I was somewhat hoping for BF2 portal expansion but with the way BF2042 has been treated that hope is pretty dry.
Plus BF3's portal guns got the lion's share of being added to AOW. Like I said, only two guns from BC2 that weren't in BF3 made it to AOW.
So the AK-101 getting into AOW is a dry hope even if they had enough heart to add BF2 to Portal.
Ok I'm done rambling. I'm going to disappear now.
so true
BfV ping was alr
But really. COD WW2 kinda got it right
Wait the m1 grand doesn't ping in 2042? I usually don't use it so I haven't noticed
My hope for any more portal content was dead the moment they announced Ripple was taken off it
is a new battlefield in the works or what?
Because the dice team dedicated to keeping this game alive is small already
Yeah, since 2022
Likely release next year
Yes, but keep your expectations extremely low
and you'll never be disappointed
There are already red flags about the next game
already? lmao, whats up with it?
To be fair, EA closed down the studio so it's definitely going to be shit
Leads left, one entire studio that was handling one of the core parts of the next game got shutdown, making a f2p battle royal
EA had layoffs of the other studios
Ridgeline studios was making the story mode campaign that was shut down
Yes
The lead doesn't have anything positive to say about EA
Fine, I will make my own, how hard can It be? /s
How hard is it to make a WW2 game? But they also messed up that one
Former Halo developers nothing of value was really lost tbh
An entire studio that is responsible for the narrative
Imagine COD without a narrative
Dice and other studios will have to take it on or scrap the single player. Battlefield has always been multi-player first since 1942
people not reading announcements
Bad Company 2, BF1 made the series stand out with the single player
Is BF2042 is a hero shooter?
The next battlefield is going back to its roots, like 64 players, 4 class system
Bad company stood out because it was catered for consoles and first time we seen destruction in a BF game
What about BF1?
Ridgeline didn't exist then
F2p battle royal is concerning which is coming
Bf1 had a single player
The old devs that made games till BF5 most of them aren't at DICE now
Devs started to leave after BF5, even more left after BF2042's launch
they totally didn't rehire them lol
They left mainly because of lack of creative freedom
??
Today's DICE isn't the DICE that made BF4
Bf2042 shows what it is like without the old team
yeah I'm sure the guy who architected battlefield 4 David sirland definitely isn't at DICE now
That's one
you all are incoherent sometimes
Mr battlefield also left DICE after BF2042
and he's back
Aleksander Grondol, who was the producer of a lot of BF games till BF5 isn't at DICE
Isn't he at ttk games!?
I wasn't talking about him I meant sirland
the point is paranoia and schizophrenia have taken over this playerbase somehow pretending that DICE has lost its soul or something from the mysteries of battlefield 3 and 4
Vince Zampella is there. Vince have the most successful track record at EA
it's a alternative history
What about making a f2p battle royal are they trying to make warzone?
I heard the battlefield battle royal idea was pitched by a former COD executive
did you not realise they hired the guy who made warzone to do it for battlefield lol
Byron beede is creating the battlefield one
he made warzone
BFV Garand was peak
It still is the best Garand in any video game
Ever
A f2p battle Royale that anyone can play is ok.
So less content for the base game?
The problem is continuing support with updates
Ea have apex legends for battle royal
I think it’s so interesting the dichotomy with BFV and Firestorm compared to Warzone and CoD
BATTLEFIELD firestorm died on arrival
Warzone has become so massive that its content usurps CoD’s
Hazard zone in bf2042 sucks
Whereas Firestorm got like 3-4 world updates and was effectively abandoned
What makes battle royal would work in the next game?
I mean if people are gonna make batshit conspiracy theories about 2042 originally being a BR why don’t we just lean into it and confirm it for the next game?
Because honestly fuck this community
Battle Royale has to be f2p otherwise it won't work. That's why warzone and fortnite are successful
Even before the Tom Henderson's leak. Battle royal for the next game possibly in work was known.
Tom Henderson is lame
I hold no claim of his in high regard and his validity is less stable than a building made of toothpicks
it's not a conspiracy lol
just nobody reads interviews DICE give with the media
But that’s not confirming that 2042 was a BR. That’s just a simple statement saying the two would go well. And they’re kinda right since Firestorm played pretty well. I wouldn’t put it past them to have a BR test while 2042 was in development, but I don’t think they ever planned the game to be solely a BR from the start
they have said they went through 3 iterations of prototypes that took 12 months before settling on an idea, that's as close as you're ever going to get to an outright confirmation of anything
connect the dots, that's all you can do
Fair enough I guess
Firestorm was their best attempt.
All you can do is wait and see what happens
yep!
It’s an extraction royale. Not a battle royale 
extraction royale is not a fucking thing
what the hell would that even mean that's different from an extraction shooter
One you live out the game long enough to win in 1st place and the rest of players is eliminated from the match. Other one you can extract at anytime as the zone closes in till the end.
no if you miss either extraction you lose. it doesn't matter if you're the last team or not, the extraction doesn't wait
BR but extract at anytime essentially.
More extractions pop up. In comes in waves as the zone closes in
The fuck would an extraction royal even be?
we're talking about hazard zone right?
You extract at anytime set of wining in first place
HZ is called extraction royale
WZ is a BR
Isn’t that just an extraction shooter?
I think that’s more like DMZ/Tarky
there's also not an endless wave of extractions, that's literally not how hazard zone works
Are those not extraction shooters?
there's two extractions, if you miss both you lose
they are extraction shooters
Not endless obviously but it comes in a lot till the last and only one is left. If you don’t extract at that last heli. It’s game over.
You know what? Fuck it let’s make an extraction royal
Dunno how the fuck that would even work but i believe in us
That’s HZ lol
there's only 2 extractions in hazard zone
If you don’t make the first 2 the zone closes in and more comes right?
Call me handicapped but i feel like you can only have either extraction shooter or battle royal, i just don’t see how you could mix them enough to call something an extraction royal
One is out and other one is still under NDA development
I would say Div Heartland is one also. I could be wrong
That’s also a survival based shooter as the mechanic
The Hawked Steam page says it's an extraction shooter
But that’s still under NDA development. Can’t say details about it…
and also is similar to The Finals and Dota 2 wtf?
What game? Hawked?
yeah
How is hawked compared to finals. I’m confused 😐
idk that's just what steam told me
Someone can help me with this problem? https://www.reddit.com/r/battlefield2042/comments/1au5mk2/on_foot_aim_bug_cant_aim/
Can anyone answer me something please? the "rao" specialist who has that hacking equipment.. for the hack to happen you have to keep the equipment in the direction of the vehicle/enemy all the time or just apply it once and the hack continues "automatically"
not in the game yet lol
M4A1 still a good AR? Haven't played in months and unfamiliar with what AR's and SMG's are the go to right now
Also Lis still good with her launcher shooting down heli's?
very
ye
What AR is good atm?
Yeah SMGs all r good. Ars SCAR, M5A3, M4A1, Ak-24
pick
DMRs are SVD and DM7 are both great
Snipers NTW and SWS are go toos
Ghostmaker MCS shoty r noice
What ever fits ur play style
what yall talking bout
AK-24 or SCAR?
SCAR
2042 and gamers
AK-24
The VHX is also up there.
M5a3 with short barrel goes hard.
PLease no
Thank you!
The AK5C is a super interesting gun.
Don't be weird and use the VHX
Syko. Don't rely on the VHX as a crutch. That's all I will tell you.
If you want something that's like the VHX but actually balanced give the AM40 a go.
It's a gun that will beam sure but it's no skill
ye
AK-24 will be good with some attachments I feel like, but the SCAR still goes hard at distance
OH NO
i was writing up something for the am40 on the battlefield wiki cause :3 bored, I accidentally pressed an function key and lost all of it.
AHHHHHHHHH

Happy Easter 😄
no u
Losing an hour of sleep is certainly a happy Easter moment
I’m just glad work is off today so I actually get a day off
Melbourne is depressing af when daylight savings ends. You spend only the daylight hours working, and it's dark when you're not. 😦
im from a nightshift and have another one today
vhx kinda sucks now compared to m5a3
ever since they removed its 4 hit kill
its just a m5a3 with a slower rpm now
oh nvm i think they have the same rpm
but m5a3 feels way smoother and accurate vhx does let u have a suppressor tho
ye
u might as well just use am40 if u want a 10m dropoff gun
or even pbx is better. pbx has a 20m 4 shot kill with cqb rounds
i mean... one is an ar, other one is a smg kek
m5a3 cqb rounds is practically an smg
says here high powered ak5c is a 4 shot kill is that true
looks really strong
what rounds do ppl normally use on ak5c
any of them depending on range. idk tbh
close combat extended looks the best to me but idk
i mainly use cc
the dmg scaling on ak5c looks weird to me
like according to this, CC still 5 shots till 75m
and for some reason CC extended has a lower rpm than normal cc? idk
Standard. High powered just turns it into the SCAR.
i always saw the scar as kind of shitty since there was rm68, acwr then vhx
but now those aren't as strong anymore
might be time to relook into the scar
SCAR has always been good.
ac42 for me kek
In my experience the SCAR is the most accurate assault rifle.
Full auto all considered.
Oh nice I was just going to ask about assault rifles
tbh every AR is equally accurate theres no recoil in this game
No no no. SPREAD wise.
i usually just go for the one with the best TTK and damage drop offs
The SCAR is way more consistent at a range for me.
cos it has good damage drop offs
better than vhx and rm68 and acwr etc
i just didnt use it because of the low rpm
if they add a short barrel for it tho
low rpm is good in general kek

Thoughts on the AC-42?
ac42 is a good gun
but i dont like it for the same reason. ttk
its good if u play medium to long range
i like it, accurate for me. just hit your shots kek
but just use the bsv-m or something
if ur doing that
personally i dont find the need for a med-long range specific gun
I remember a talk with a regular here, The reason why the SCAR feels "Good" is because it feels consistent.
even the m5a3 short barrel deletes people at 100m if u burst and aim properly
It's the one I've been using for yeah, "hit your shots".
I need to git gud
RM277 was straight up overpowered with short barrel and I don't say that without a base.
you should only use long range guns if you're ONLY going for long range engagements
otherwise just use a bullet hose
since they can still nail ppl past 75m
if most of ur fighting is done below 75m, no reason to use a long range weapon
I'm more annoyed by spread at a range and the mouse input so I don't really try to hit shots at a certain range.
m5a3, vhx, scar does super well at any range below 75m
personally i consider <30m to be close range, and >75m to be long range. common damage drop offs
i use ac42 at any range kek
anything below 30m is practically impossible to miss full auto because of spread or recoil
unless its like a head sticking out behind a wall
Only thing that cucks me is the recoil bug at close range to be honest.
recoil bug?
The more your gun fires the more muddy your input becomes.
i never had the recoil bug issue. idk
cos of the recent change
it feels weird that the scar 4 shots on the body
but 3 shots on the head
m5a3 is still 3 shots to the head
i see this change as an indirect nerf to 4 hit kill guns for close combat
the lowest you can do is 3 shots to the head. no more 2 shot heads anymore
yeah kind of a dumb change imo
those annoying campers who just poke their heads out got a buff lol
used to delete them instantly with vhx
2 shot heads is perfectly fine in the game??????
but yeah i see this as more reason to shift to 5HK guns like m5a3 short, aek etc
point blank why not?
bf4's 5.56 caliber guns 2 hits to the head point blank
now bf2042's large caliber guns like scar cant even do that lol
and bf4 didn't have a ttk problem
large caliber guns like scar should be 2 hitting in the head
Random 2 hit kills were extremely annoying to deal with.
battle rifles like scar shouldn't be taking 3 shots to the head to kill lol
seems weird
m5a3, vhx. sure
i mean your not count hsd multiplier at all tho kek
aek in bf4 had like a 2.1 or 2.2x multiplier and did 24.5 dmg a shot
2 shot HS point blank
same with all other low caliber rifles
and its annyoying to deal with

I can't really comment on the bf4 metagame but I do know it wasn't so beamy as this game.
And maybe that's it.
bf2042 def has a lower ttk than bf4
yet he still uses it kek
never say never
the reason is because of zero recoil low ttk guns like vhx
Oh no I don't disagree, The issue is the ease of the gunplay. They should just make it so that most of the 4HK guns just disregard armour to make up for the HS multiplier.
wym disregard armor
4hk turn into 5hk with armor before the change

Make the SCAR deal 30 max damage - 24 min.
Armour is a load of bullshit honestly.
It's why I loved the m16 so much.
lol nerfing headshots just make armor stronger
the headshot change makes no sense to me
Oh no it's something different my mind is on.
It would be cool if there was something to make up for the 4HK guns.
armor is a pretty good counter to 4hk guns to me
turns it into 5 hits
huge diff considering their rpm is lower
hsd is to make a blanket ttk change for the entire game and increase the skill gap.
thats a 33% increase in time taken to kill
Armour shouldn't even be that good.
If it protected against environmental/explosive damage sure!
for 5hk guns its only a 25% increase in ttk
i mean it used to protect against headshots too
lol
restricting it to chest is good enough
they have to be on the game and online xD
yes we r
this
but we cant see each other
i personally never had issues against armor
I just hate the inconsistency.
the TTK in this game is so short
you both on the same gen
yeah it normally works
With how little the drawbacks are using it it's so fucking annoying.
idk, i see my friends online
I wouldn't mind it if it provided 10 points allowing you to live ranged hits but your close range survivability wouldn't change.
i mean the alternative is people spamming sph
Unfortunately.
prob both of you try restarting game idk
The c4 nerf just made armour more attractive to the shitters.
i didnt know c4 got nerfed
3 > 2.
ah
For recon and assault.
no wonder i dont see ppl using it anymore lol
I may as well run armour and feel good when I see the blue hitmarker kill.
Yeah SPH and armour usage has risen as a result.
HEALTHY. YES.
making vehicles more aggressive 
they should nerf armor to 10 points
it wont make a difference
4 shot is still 5 shot with 10 extra points
oh wait
5 shot will still be 5 shot
lol
cuz 22 per shot
maybe nerf it to 15
the nerf will make the noobs use it less
even tho nothing has changed practically
Assault rifles deal 26 max.
I just use guns that are fun.
same
I feel bad for maining the VHX and RM the way I did.
mainly because of the HS making it 3 shots now + a slight 2 dmg nerf which can make a diff in some situations
vhx was fun for me lol
vhx always seems meh and mid to me
I need to get the AM40 to 10K but eh
just a worse m5a3 short barrel
i was never a fan of am40
the 10m drop off is too small for me
rather use pbx or pp29 then
same reason i find the ak24 trash
ak24 having a 10m drop off is kind of dumb
beyond 10ma lot of other guns outperforms it
