battlefield-2042

[lone void]

nobody said it was hard, just for most average people it's going to take time

[thick mulch]

each mastery is 30 kills

t3 is mastery 11

do the math

[lone void]

Tier 3 is mastery 12

[outer saddle]

https://tenor.com/view/pon-gif-15097379091171620462

[thick mulch]

potato potato not much difference

you dont do mastery 12

mastery 11 unlocks t3

[lone void]

T1 is master 1, T2 is mastery 4, T3 is 12, T2 is 24, T1 is 40

[thick mulch]

i had a stroke reading that

it goes down from 5

to 1

[lone void]

my bad, T3 is 360 kills

[thick mulch]

but i think that is good investment

getting all guns to t3

[halcyon grotto]

even guns you dont like playing with?

why?

[thick mulch]

cause now when you get kills with any of them automatically they count towards mastery you cant gain with ai

Because i wanted to and it made me feel accomplished

[halcyon grotto]

How many hours have it taken to play against bots?

[thick mulch]

that was back when i first got the game

but a shit ton

it was fun

[halcyon grotto]

was it fun?

[thick mulch]

i had fun

[halcyon grotto]

good

[thick mulch]

played with my friend

[halcyon grotto]

that is was matters

[thick mulch]

and got levels that i needed to unlock guns

[halcyon grotto]

Just personally for me, that isn't fun

[thick mulch]

yeah i understand that

Now i have fun with pvp

Just back when starting out didnt have attachment didnt have best guns

so didnt really wanna pvp yet

[halcyon grotto]

we all have been there

[thick mulch]

ye

[halcyon grotto]

but even a gun without attachments is quite good

[thick mulch]

well like i said now i dont have any excuse

[halcyon grotto]

atleast after 10 kills for the first sight

[thick mulch]

It might be placebo

but i still think it makes the gun more tolerable

I hate irons anyway

[echo yew]

did they really reduce the number of C4s just to protect tanks?

dice seriously?

[thick mulch]

they made the role of tank killer more exclusive to the engineer class

[hazy hazel]

CAN ANY1 GIVE ME FREE BF PLS

[echo yew]

gotta protect the vehicle farmers i guess?

whats next sbmm?

[hazy hazel]

ANY PART OF GAME

PLEASE

I HAVE NO MONEY XDDD

[loud vapor]

U dont want it, it doesnt work

[thick mulch]

You say that like you're not confident in taking down vehicles

and i wouldn't call them farmers they are just playing the game like you and me

If your calling people who use vehicles farmers because thats what they always use, then by the same logic, someone who never plays vehicles and only does infantry, is a infantry farmer

Some people just like different things, its a part of the game, all you gotta do is adapt and overcome

[tidal trail]

So many fallacies

[thick mulch]

i wasnt trying to be shakespeare but you get my point

[tidal trail]

Reducing c5s is dumb period lmao. Don't try to defend it

[gritty pawn]

Is there a bug with the friendlist?

[thick mulch]

yes scroll up

only germany eu social is up

[thick mulch]

its emphasizing that engineers should fight armor, and not focus on infantry

[gritty pawn]

Do you mean German servers?

[halcyon grotto]

I think it was a good call. Gives them the option to shake up balancing abit

[hazy hazel]

i want

[echo yew]

This my guy

[thick mulch]

and emphasizes the other classes are primarily focused agaisnt infantry

[thick mulch]

Yeah they are up last i checked

[echo yew]

Infantry gameplay is already significantly inferior to vehicle gameplay

We were on the right track but this is a massive step down

[thick mulch]

depends on perspective

what do you count as inferior?

[spare quest]

Wie bidde?

[thick mulch]

ease to die?

[echo yew]

Feels like we’re back in january 2022

[thick mulch]

ability to get kills?

[gritty pawn]

I am able to join a server, but still can't see friendlist. Are these seperate issues?

[echo yew]

Overall infantry performance is not as extreme as certain vehicle classes

[thick mulch]

friendlist is seperate that is only thing down, games work

[gritty pawn]

Check, thanks mate

[echo yew]

It’s significantly easier to reduce deaths when in vehicles, sometimes completely avoid it (nightbird)

Which i mean

Makes sense it’s a tank

[thick mulch]

and i have a feeling that the majority of that comes from a inexperienced enemy team that doesnt know how to counter vehicles

[halcyon grotto]

Vehicle gameplay was very shaky.
If you weren't extremly good, you get taken down instantly due to so many any tank options.
If you are good at it, you will not be taken down and now have a way OP heavy weapon.

This would allow them to make vehicles stay alive longer, and make it possible to reduce their firepower to keep the overall balance the same.

[thick mulch]

if you take the right loadout and focus on a vehicle for a good 2 mins they will have a tough time

[echo yew]

But reducing or removing the ability for infantry to defend itself is not a good way to go

[thick mulch]

how is it reducing

[halcyon grotto]

They will give engi +1 rocket in next patch I think

[thick mulch]

both sides have the same thing

[echo yew]

2 mins vs 0 ms ttk is a bit of an extreme difference methinks

[thick mulch]

both side have to deal with the same issues

[thick mulch]

if they have esp maybe

you have to sneak up on them

smoke grenades

thermals cant see through them

[halcyon grotto]

I would have been fine with reacon keeping the 3x c5 and remove it from assult

[thick mulch]

yeah tbh i agree ^^

[echo yew]

Whatever

I will never use C4 again that’s for sure

[thick mulch]

ive always wanted assault to go back to medic role like old bf

[echo yew]

Completely obsolete piece of equipment

[halcyon grotto]

nah

[thick mulch]

what class do you play

[echo yew]

Also the VHS-2 got annihilated bad lmao

[thick mulch]

let me guess

[halcyon grotto]

quite often 2x is enough to get a kill in a combat situation

[thick mulch]

its not engineer

[echo yew]

All of them

[thick mulch]

play engineer

[halcyon grotto]

yeah

go for engi

[echo yew]

Was on engineer earlier

[tidal trail]

All it takes is one team mate to get a hit on a tank your 2 c5s can do the rest

[halcyon grotto]

then what was the problem

[thick mulch]

or rao emp tank while you c5

[halcyon grotto]

you got your 0 ms takedown

[echo yew]

Anyway is there a good AR or are they all bad again injust reinstalled earlier today

[thick mulch]

casper drone getting the emp removed was bad change though

[patent path]

all of the ARs are good

[tidal trail]

Casper kinda obsolete now

[thick mulch]

i like ak5c this season

[halcyon grotto]

play what is fun. Not was is the best

[thick mulch]

if you have it unlocked id use it

[halcyon grotto]

pretty boring when people only play meta shit

[patent path]

casper is still really strong when you want to capture an obj

[thick mulch]

this is exactly why these changes are implimented

so people dont just play one thing

and they change clases more often

even with the c5 reduction

[echo yew]

Fuck it imma keep my PBX

[thick mulch]

say your playing assault and die to tank

now c5 is lowerd u need to switch to engineer meanwhile before u could still be assault with all its benefits and take out a tank

when assault is mainly to fight infantry not tanks

all im saying is it makes everyone less a jack of all trades

[halcyon grotto]

remeber, engi still have 3x C5

[thick mulch]

and makes the classes more specialized

yeah

and liz with 2 tgms and 3 c5 is great

now thats something that does need change

cause liz can do much more vehicle damage than other engineers

[tidal trail]

Remember when Sundance had anti-tank lock-on grenade....

Good times

[thick mulch]

like crawford i take a sraw and even with additional ammo still cant kill tank with only it

[echo yew]

Sundance was a bad design choice entirely

How they got past concept stage is beyond me

[thick mulch]

well they wernt looking at design

it was purely concept

remember she was made in begining of game and appeared in trailer

[arctic grove]

are the servers okay?

[halcyon grotto]

ye

[arctic grove]

I cant see my friends in the party menu

[halcyon grotto]

not social

[arctic grove]

like at all

[thick mulch]

scroll up

[echo yew]

Wingsuit is a decent idea

[thick mulch]

game servers good

friends servers down

no friend list working

[echo yew]

Wingsuit with lock on and scatter grenades is overkill

[patent path]

sraw has always been shit since the older bf games

[thick mulch]

I dont think it should have been taken away

the cooldown should have been increased and damage decreased

[tidal trail]

You guys play with friends!?

[rotund dune]

this game is trash i wasted 10 dollars and cant even play with my friends

[patent path]

aww poor baby lost his 10 bucks

[thick mulch]

whole reason i got this game was i bought it for me and my friend

Its not a bad co op game tbh for the price

Can yall please scroll up

This has been said

Game servers work

Friends dont work

list doesnt work

invites dont work

party doesnt work

only solo play works

[rotund dune]

typical ea shit doesent work

[halcyon grotto]

Works 99% of the time. Just down for now

[rotund dune]

i dont really agree with that

[thick mulch]

lovely nice people so sweet

[halcyon grotto]

sorry, 99.99% of the time

[kindred flint]

what in the fuck kind of i dont touch grass, is going on here

[thick mulch]

well you use ea launcher?

[scenic iris]

me and a bunch of friends are having the same issue

[thick mulch]

use steam instead

[halcyon grotto]

Either you are the unluckiest human alive that just plays when it's down rarely, or you are overdramatic

[rotund dune]

we use steam'

[patent path]

just the usual

[thick mulch]

you want a solution

[kindred flint]

skill issue with computers? idk dawg

[halcyon grotto]

I dont care what you use

[thick mulch]

do it like the old days of bf

join a specific portal server

and squad up

[halcyon grotto]

yeah

[patent path]

yeah okay and?

[halcyon grotto]

that is how most games work on steam that is developed by another company that have their own game launcher

[thick mulch]

the game works if its not starting thats a you issue

[kindred flint]

is the EA app also effecting your caps lock?

[thick mulch]

the only thing down is the friends list

play a solo game

have fun alone

its ok

dont get so mad

[halcyon grotto]

or do some cleaning irl

[patent path]

it's 10pm go drink some warm milk and get a hug from your mommy

[halcyon grotto]

perfect chance

[thick mulch]

you want to fight?

it really isnt that big of a deal

[halcyon grotto]

It's good enough. Steam is shit Just popup ads all the time

[thick mulch]

steam isnt that shit

[rotund dune]

i havent gotten a single ad in steam in all my years

[kindred flint]

every time i launch HD2 i swear the steam bullshit pages pop up 4 times in a row even though im clicking off it

[patent path]

https://tenor.com/view/babadook-scream-screamingkid-screamcar-afraid-gif-7640635

[halcyon grotto]

there is a popup on every launch about new games

[patent path]

just Gaben reminding me to buy more games

[kindred flint]

so he can fund HL3 dota 3

[thick mulch]

Oooh buddy i would del that before a admin boots u out

[halcyon grotto]

really? great reason to report you

[echo yew]

What an insane take to have

[thick mulch]

death threats are not taken softly

[kindred flint]

edge lord kiddies are always so amusing

[thick mulch]

its a literal game

[patent path]

just an acoustic kid

[thick mulch]

dont get so heated

[kindred flint]

and by amusing i mean legally mentally deficient

[thick mulch]

play something else

you have other games i hope?

not just bf2042

[echo yew]

i keep getting one shotted by assault rifles

[thick mulch]

because if not theirs your problem

[kindred flint]

dudes trying to cosplay that angry dad from like 15 years ago on youtube with the neck brace and tourettes

[echo yew]

Tbf the entire fps genre is in shambles rn and has been since BOCW came out

[thick mulch]

why cant we go back to the old days

where i could join a mw2 lobby and get called slurs

[patent path]

it's 15$

[echo yew]

we got mw19 and then treyarch just dropped a curse on the entire genre

(Mw19 was also bad)

[kindred flint]

and the level boosted BP is even cheaper than that

[halcyon grotto]

atleast it wants me to buy somethign inside a game I own

[thick mulch]

i still remember the xbox 360 lobbys

[halcyon grotto]

It doesn't want me to buy The Sims

[thick mulch]

you had to have real tough skin

[kindred flint]

but you bought the game for $10 you cheap cunt so dont complain about having to spend a tiny bit more on a BP which then allows you to get the next one free

[patent path]

mw3 is great if you can get it for cheap

[echo yew]

Mw22 was something resembling fun i guess

[echo yew]

Mw3 is great when it’s not angry at you

[thick mulch]

hey buddy relax

you know what you can do tommorow

play it

[halcyon grotto]

You are welcome to leave this server if you hate the game so much. Feel free to never join it too. You will not be missed

[thick mulch]

its ok itll stay there for you

its not leaving

[echo yew]

when mw3 is mad at you for that one match you went 5.32 kd back on december it will spite you and make sure you do NOT get more than 7 kills per game until you give it money or it’s temper tantrum cools off

[kindred flint]

the enemy snipers in my match earlier had this same thought process with their spawn

[thick mulch]

because ea wont let their entire launcher be down for 2 days

they are a bad company but not that bad

[echo yew]

dmz was the best fps since BO2 i will not accept any other take

Then it was killed off because streamers said “dmz bad”

[halcyon grotto]

It could also be something outside of EA control

could be the server provider

[kindred flint]

-mod reaction when they look in here

[echo yew]

Hey chat is the AK 12 good

[rotund dune]

no

[drowsy shuttle]

This shit is hilarious lol

[patent path]

yes

[echo yew]

Nice

[thick mulch]

ak5c better

That gun is ORGASMIC this season

[echo yew]

Call me insane but the SVA 545 from MW3 should show up in 2042 but not as an AN-94

we have a futuristic AR why not 2

[thick mulch]

well who knows how many seasons we still have

[kindred flint]

how can it be orgasmic?

[thick mulch]

new battlefield is set to come out fall 2025

[kindred flint]

shit seems just like a balanced AR

[thick mulch]

and this season took 7 months

[echo yew]

I think this one and maybe s8

Not more

[thick mulch]

depends on if papa ea wants more money

[kindred flint]

did the mods actually nuke his chat logs already?

[thick mulch]

they did shut down a whole studio and fire everyone after all

yep thats what happens

[shy forum]

yup

[halcyon grotto]

<3

[thick mulch]

Love you

❤️

[shy forum]

ok

[keen fossil]

is anyone else having issues with the friends list?

cannot see my friend in game , even though we're both on origin

[halcyon grotto]

yes

[keen fossil]

or w/e its called now EA play

[thick mulch]

while your here can you pin something about friend being down

[kindred flint]

the silent mod strike

[dawn jetty]

Yes the game is pile of hot shot

[halcyon grotto]

is he back again?

[keen fossil]

oh so its down for everyone?

GG

[thick mulch]

yes

[kindred flint]

pile of hot shot? is that like a sequel to that 90s movie with charlie sheen?

[thick mulch]

ive been playing since 1 last night

it started around 7 in the morning est

[dawn jetty]

Worked just fine this morning but not anymore at all for atleast past 5 hrs

[keen fossil]

any workarounds to this?

[thick mulch]

germany servers work, if you and the friend you want to invite vpn to germany

it works

[keen fossil]

xd

[thick mulch]

or get a specific portal server

[dawn jetty]

Fixed probaly tuesday when they get back to work

[thick mulch]

and find ur friends squad like old fashioned bf games

i wonder if their twitter saying anything

cause the friends list down for all ea games not just battlefield

[shy forum]

Well, it's easter AND sunday today

[keen fossil]

I swear, this EA play integration is so dog... Why can't they just use Steam instead of insisting on EA games using EA play

[dawn jetty]

Dead silent in twitter checked there alrdy

[keen fossil]

and then having the worst integration imaginable

[kindred flint]

shhh gamers dont know what days of the week are

[thick mulch]

ea is a big company with big money, they want control

and they can very well afford it

[halcyon grotto]

having own control over stuff. Not funny to hand it over to another company

[thick mulch]

ea has been like this since 2010

since forever

[keen fossil]

yeah

and Origin has always been bad

they just refused to kill it off

[thick mulch]

origin was better than ea play

[halcyon grotto]

not the best, but good enough

[dawn jetty]

Ea downfall since battlefield 3

[keen fossil]

and anyway

[thick mulch]

why make a whole new app when you put so much time into it

[keen fossil]

what control do they have with EA play

even COD has full steam integration

[thick mulch]

that like steam after 20 years going

yeah lets make whole another launcher and call it Valve play

[keen fossil]

or rather properly works on steam so that CODHQ isn't a blocker

[thick mulch]

well the control is the games you buy is a license

You dont own it

you own the license to play on their servers

[keen fossil]

yes and this works whether you buy it on steam or ea play

[thick mulch]

but steam has precident that they wont do anything to the games you have paid for

while ea has shut down older games people have payed for

farcry 3

[keen fossil]

farcry 3 is on ubisoft first of all

and second of all, you can buy it on steam

[thick mulch]

oh yeah u right

[keen fossil]

so this whole point makes no sense

[thick mulch]

ubisoft fucking sucks too

ea and ubisoft both shitty publishers

But the reason they still exist is because they own a lot of companys that create games

have a lot of income despite their reputation

because despite everyone saying how bad they are, people still buy their games and things, and funds them to keep on doing it

endless cycle

[echo yew]

Ubisoft is by far the fucking worst

[thick mulch]

what you need is another company to step up and offer a better product so people will go from these companys they vocally hate and put their money where their mouth is

[halcyon grotto]

Maybe too little data. But it looks like a few different services started to get report of issues around the same time tonight. https://downdetector.com/

[thick mulch]

yeah

i was playing all night since 1

started happening around 7 i think

maybe 6

the reports just now started because people are waking up to play

[spare quest]

[echo yew]

Imma be honest

Im back in this game cuz of the scorpion evo

[kindred flint]

https://ol.reddit.com/r/battlefield2042/comments/1bsbzv1/getting_c5d_once_in_a_while_by_a_skilled_mackay/kxfbmt6/ ok but how can someone be this dumb?

[dusty sparrow]

Nice

[fickle skiff]

whats the best smg in this nmeta ?

[thick mulch]

smg?

[dreamy topaz]

AC9

[thick mulch]

the new one tbh

but ac9 k30 and scz all kill pretty quick

just pick the one u like

[drowsy shuttle]

Mp9

[fickle skiff]

would ac9 work in mid range ?

[thick mulch]

all smgs suck at mid range

pick a assault rifle if you want that

ak5c ive full autod people at 100m and damage still good

sfarm gl is good

just pick the one you like tbh its more enjoyable and all the assault rifles are pretty punchy

[lofty sinew]

socials back up for me yay

[thick mulch]

i wouldnt say one specific assault rifle sucks, they all do the job

[thick mulch]

Ye boi

and that one kid that was bitching at it being down

if only he wouldve just wait a hour

lmao

[kindred flint]

75-15 assault sweat with 0 caps...also loses by 700 tickets

[dense bramble]

I never full auto at range

[kindred flint]

ac9 is a close range smg

[thick mulch]

if you learn to control recoil, and use the comp for no bullet deviation

it actually not that hard

takes em down fast

[kindred flint]

pbx, pp29, scz are better out to mid

[dense bramble]

yeah rn I just tap fire kinda

[thick mulch]

well its all based on skill

the more you learn the better you get

[dense bramble]

I usually just cqc

but yeah smgs suck mid range

[thick mulch]

yeah its nice untill you get a huge 128 map and have to shoot guys way in front of you

[dense bramble]

yeah I use scz it kinda works

smgs should always dominate close range but mid range it shouldn't beat ARs

[kindred flint]

high rof ones just ..suck at mid range because trying to control that is beyond my sweat level

[dense bramble]

just do a bit of tap firing

[kindred flint]

so ive always enjoyed slower rof ones...abused the shit out of the pbx even when the k30 was still op

[dense bramble]

i shoot like a few bullets as my tap fire

and it works for me

[arctic grove]

still broken

I just wanna play with my friend

[dense bramble]

yeah social is broken rn

[ancient peak]

What’re the go to ARs after the update

[dense bramble]

M5A3, VHX D3

[kindred flint]

arent like 90% of ARs actually competitive anyways?

[dense bramble]

idk about other ones

[dense bramble]

AK24 is alright

not the best

[kindred flint]

more player skill than "omg the rm68 is so fucking broken it beats everything"

[dense bramble]

I hate people that use SVK

[kindred flint]

sfar was probably the worst one because of the UB nade nerf

[dense bramble]

sfar still good

[kindred flint]

but only 1 ammo per UB

[dreamy topaz]

svk owns and it even has 2 ap nades

[kindred flint]

and you cant swap it out for a grip

with the g428 in the game...or bsvm whats the point of the svk?

[dense bramble]

Maybe I should try SVK close range

lol

[dreamy topaz]

svk 2-shots up to 100m

g428 is only to 20m or 40m (ss)

[kindred flint]

i stopped understanding the 2 tap kill potential of that gun after they nerfed it a bit...and then it was clear single fire ARs were just as good anyways

[dense bramble]

I mean I'll still try it anyways

[dreamy topaz]

I have the opposite experience trying to fire at range with an AR beyond 75m is an exercise in futility

svk casually 2 taps them

[kindred flint]

the slower rof, no full auto...i mean if youre playing super passive at range maybe

but im always near the objective so CQC is a thing

[dense bramble]

is svk flinch not bad?

[dreamy topaz]

svk has respectable hipfire too, especially with a laser

[kindred flint]

then i die to a dude 15m away from a fucker with the dm7 and i was pissed

[dreamy topaz]

and yes svk does have a bit of a shake

[kindred flint]

but then i was amazed he was able to fire it that fast

[dreamy topaz]

lmfao if someone manages to kill you with a dm7 they earn it

[kindred flint]

fr

[dreamy topaz]

that gun sucks something real

[kindred flint]

i see that gun now and its just like "power creep has killed me"

[arctic grove]

I got t1 back when I played on my ps4

[kindred flint]

i really wanted to like it...but its suffered, i enjoyed the dm11? in bf4

[arctic grove]

it wasnt even painful i was having fun

when i picked it up on pc tho it felt awful

[dense bramble]

hm

idk

If i should use it

[dreamy topaz]

ARs are comfortable but as long as you hit your shots svk is a beast of a gun at all ranges, I got annoyed at how ineffective ARs were at dealing with annoying snipers taking potshots at you while svk you can kill anyone on the map

[arctic grove]

why'd we stop getting portal guns

i kinda forgot

[spare quest]

too much efforts for the devs

[arctic grove]

bruh

[kindred flint]

honestly...ak24, rm68 especially, sfar, ac42...those were all super easy to get long range kills on single fire

[mental delta]

Is it me or servers are crazy broken rn ?

[arctic grove]

never got my conventional SCAR-H and m16a2 😔

[spare quest]

huh

[mental delta]

Shit is freezing and all

[kindred flint]

the rate you can tap fire accurately when you see one of those camping bitches scope glint

[mental delta]

But my ping is 9ms ?

[arctic grove]

actually had some freezes

when i plaued

[kindred flint]

well my ping was going to shit so i assumed that was just me

[dense bramble]

yeah AR players can't do anything to Snipers or DMRs at range

[dreamy topaz]

sfar is definitely good at dealing with snipers true

[kindred flint]

but the round was a little laggy at times..but i saw the MS go up to 250+ and figured my verizon fiber WIFI ONLY internet is shitting the bed again

[chilly jacinth]

just tap fire

ez kill

[mental delta]

Yeah that's annoying it's unplayable

[kindred flint]

lol if a sniper is prone or sitting in 1 spot ARs can shit on them all over

its not even fair

[thick mulch]

Especially when you kill a sniper from 130m with just a rifle and red dot

[kindred flint]

and i dont mind it

[dense bramble]

Against snipers it works but against dmrs its hard lol

[kindred flint]

loll..yes 1.25 zoom red dot even

[mental delta]

Well it seems like it's not, servers are having a rough time rn

[potent locust]

How on earth do you leave squad on Battlefield 2042?

[kindred flint]

just see the glint and pop 5 rounds at them and theyre dead

[potent locust]

Left clicking on it does fuck all

[mental delta]

Lazyness from Dice ?

[dreamy topaz]

you can't, just create a new squad and lock it

[arctic grove]

thats pretty epic of them

[potent locust]

Create squad does not work

[dreamy topaz]

try creating a squad when you're alive, it seems inconsistent

[kindred flint]

portal guns=we have to remake the entire thing to work in 2042 mode soo

[mental delta]

Not surprising but not honest, we stocked to this game as a community and they ain't even dropping Portal guns in AOW anymore while those are literally in the game

[kindred flint]

its not a direct port though

[arctic grove]

they gave us attachments and called it a day

[potent locust]

Also why are portal guns still not unlockable in portal. Does EA just want to take BF2042 behind the barn like Old Yeller and execute it? Is that it?

[mental delta]

Visual doesn't even change it's literally just performances and attachments

[spare quest]

[potent locust]

As in unlock attachments

[mental delta]

[thick mulch]

look at the g3 and an-94 both have skins

both have ok enough animations

both could be put in

but dice dont

[kindred flint]

yes, for the weapons dev that would be remaking it

[thick mulch]

well its not that bad

[mental delta]

It should completely be in AOW, it's not like half the community has been asking for them for 6 months

[thick mulch]

have you tried the g3 in portal

[mental delta]

[kindred flint]

remember years ago when we thought portal guns would get skins if they brought them to AOW?

[thick mulch]

not terrible as its made out

well they did get skins just not t1

and im not talking battlepass skins

tbh i miss bf4s vomit of skins

[spare quest]

bruh they barely give us any universal weapon skins

[thick mulch]

Just skins on top of skins on top of skins

[arctic grove]

the pink/blue universal vehicle camo has to be the best deal ngl

Rocking that thing on my flying bike with c5 attached to the front

has anyone tried the kamikaze drone tactic?

god its good

[spare quest]

not worth it anymore obviously

[arctic grove]

u need 2 people for it tho

[kindred flint]

ahh...my supposed 100mbps down internet speed is only showing 66...looks like i have to reset the modem again

[arctic grove]

how so?

[kindred flint]

the drone slows down the more c5 you put on it

[spare quest]

speed nerf?

[thick mulch]

I think it works in portal servers with mav

they didnt nerf that i think

[arctic grove]

honestly didnt even know it got nerfed

[spare quest]

[arctic grove]

dont play that often

its still amazing tho

[thick mulch]

well and look at how they destroyed the drone

removed the emp

[spare quest]

lmao

[arctic grove]

its so good for terrorizing the spawn camping wildcats

[thick mulch]

Cant do kamikaze drone

cant do emp drone

[dreamy topaz]

just out of curiosity can you place c5 on the eod bot?

[thick mulch]

poor casper getting cucked

[thick mulch]

good question, but would probably be so slow to get to where u need to be, all people got to do is shoot once and bye bye c5

[spare quest]

the cope is real

[arctic grove]

idk where im coping here cuz i didnt even get to fly it in the pre-nerfed state

it works so

[spare quest]

another delusional katsap

[thick mulch]

well i mean it was a fun gimmick

you didnt really kill too many people cause it took a bit to set up

[arctic grove]

showing your true colors huh

[chilly jacinth]

i think he means the vehicle

not the small drone

[thick mulch]

oh

which one?

[arctic grove]

buddys calling me a katsap over a discord conversation about battlefield vehicles

[thick mulch]

oh the pondhook i see

[arctic grove]

yeye

[thick mulch]

Well thats a gimimck vehicle anyway all its in game for is to prevent people from using jets as taxi

[arctic grove]

i've made a compilation of me and my friend blowing shit up but i dont have image perms

[dreamy topaz]

ha thats what you think I just flew half of my last game in a f35 someone ditched

[spare quest]

I have over 600 kills with the casper drone good times

[dreamy topaz]

what kind of a weirdo has AA missiles on a jet??

[chilly jacinth]

yet people still use jets as taxis

[mental delta]

We were really some dumbass mfs as a community to think such a thing

[chilly jacinth]

even gunships

its amazing really

[spare quest]

https://tenor.com/view/darkviperau-who-asked-gif-24266040

[arctic grove]

who hurt this guy

either way

[spare quest]

taxes

[arctic grove]

prolly the most fun i've had in 2042

since forever lol

[thick mulch]

Yeah and its historically accurate

[spare quest]

[kindred flint]

actual sweat

huh look at that restarted the verizon box and the speed is back up to what it should be probably a defective pos

[mental delta]

On a scale from 1 to 10 how would you rate the whole specialist system based on how they look, perform or function ?

[naive magnet]

Is the G57 the best all around sidearm

[tidal trail]

Undoubtedly

[kindred flint]

since it has burst....yeah?

[mental delta]

1 10

[kindred flint]

is 1 the lowest we can go?

[mental delta]

I would give it 1/10

[dense bramble]

yes but if you can hit headshots then other ones are better

[mental delta]

If I could I'd say -6

[dense bramble]

like the deagle

[tidal trail]

Deagle pretty good with close combat rounds

[dreamy topaz]

new deagle recoil is vomit inducing

you've a better chance of hitting people just never ADSing and relying on laser

[dense bramble]

I need to unlock it

I have to do that m44 challenge

how am I supposed to do that

[kindred flint]

against bots?

[dense bramble]

I guess

gotta find a tank or something c5 then shoot it

[thick mulch]

Yeah pretty jarring but take away the fact that, the visual recoil does not make the muzzle climb more at all, its just placebo effect

[thick mulch]

c5 and mav how i got it

[dreamy topaz]

hard to keep track of my target when my optic flies off my screen

[thick mulch]

I dont find myself using pistols much anyway

are you a recon main?

[dense bramble]

I just wanna use it

[thick mulch]

oh no not u synti

its a cool gun

only t1 pistol i got

[dense bramble]

i see

[thick mulch]

My personal opinion, bfp and m1911 with extended mag, top 2 pistols

[dense bramble]

I only use G57 rn

[thick mulch]

g57 aint bad has big mag but you have to have fast trigger finger

[dense bramble]

even in burst?

[thick mulch]

Ehh

I never really used burst

tbh

[dense bramble]

The burst is decent

I do try single fire most of the time

[thick mulch]

rn im working on l9cz for time being

cause want kills to count toward t1 skin

[dark moss]

Hey bros, i can ask for a solution to my problem?

[last willow]

Felt like Warzone Deagle lol, can't hit shit with that either on iron sights

[shy viper]

I like the shorty-12g

[kindred flint]

why tf would you use the deagle and not use the burst???

unless youre me at launch and forgot/didnt notice you could change it

[thick mulch]

what you need?

[dark moss]

It is with the voice chat, I already deactivated it in the settings, I even have my microphone deactivated but in the games my squad still listens to me

[thick mulch]

hmm so its turned off yet the game still uses your microphone?

[dark moss]

yep

[thick mulch]

do you see ur username pop up even after turning off

like for vc

or no

[wary heath]

i have mine set to push to talk and since i dont use mouse and key i use controller to play ill never hit the button so it works

[dark moss]

Yes, i enter to the table of players and i see the sign of vc in my username

[thick mulch]

can you take a screenshot of your settings

under sound voice chat

thats weird

send it to me in dms it wont send in this discord

[lofty sinew]

are there no official rush games rn that are not haven only?

[tawny iris]

anyone want to team up?

well i know they took f'ing redacted out

pieces of shit

[remote kiln]

in windows software needs permission to be able to use the microphone, you can deny it for the game explicitly to disable the ability for it to switch on there

[wary heath]

after this match sure

[tawny iris]

hell yeah

just lemme know when youre ready

ill change some settings on the comp

[wary heath]

for sure i can hop into a vc rn

[tawny iris]

excuse my ignorance, but what is a vc?

[wary heath]

voice chat

[spare quest]

vice city

[tawny iris]

the game?

im looking to play bf

if youre playing something else its alll good

[wary heath]

no its voice chat here in discord so we can communicate

[tawny iris]

ah, you got be bird

you sob ❤️

sounds great env

[wary heath]

np lol

im in bf2042 squad 8 vc

on this discord

[fickle skiff]

what's the comp name please ?

[thick mulch]

Tactical compensator

Because it compensates for the lack of balls you have

[spare quest]

[unborn herald]

damn this game made me so bored to the point where I switched to r6 fully and finished their battlepass instead lmao

[thick mulch]

its not too bad.
im guessing you enjoy competitive titles?

[unborn herald]

breakthrough is too dead

I can’t enjoy other maps

only the new map on conquest

which is why I got bored quick

[thick mulch]

I do understand that with the maps

Those big maps do not have good flow

[unborn herald]

Which is why I mainly prefer breakthrough

but it’s dead

at least in my region

[vocal spruce]

these anti tank weapons are so underwhelming

[unborn herald]

they need to buff lis a bit

[thick mulch]

However what they did for the past couple seasons making 64 player maps shows they still kinda have it

[vocal spruce]

I hit a Ka-52 twice with Lis and it survived

[unborn herald]

I know

[thick mulch]

Redacted Haven

[unborn herald]

It needs a buff

[thick mulch]

reclaimed

but yeah they did mess up the whole core of bf and you can see that with the big maps that were launched with the game

[vocal spruce]

the target acquisition of the javelin is horrendous, the recoiless rifle is weak.

[tawny carbon]

sheesh it had a big spike

im glad its back tho

[dusty sparrow]

[kindred flint]

always feels good to play the game for 5 mins then quit it because the team is so garbage

[spare quest]

I only played like 5 rounds during the double xp weekend

[kindred flint]

i think im under 10 matches tbh

some of them were just hilarious steamrolls

[tidal trail]

Maybe you should do better and carry the team to victory yourself

[kindred flint]

I was on the winning side already

if the team im on is actually shit im not sitting around for 15 minutes to waste my time

[tidal trail]

Disregard my previous statement

If I'm on a bad team, guess what, I solo win it myself

Ez

[pine roost]

Oh no it’s starting

April 1st

Prepare your notification inbox

[arctic grove]

amateur numbers my league of legends team wastes 45 min of my time

[arctic grove]

[tawny carbon]

lil ac42 triple kill

[arctic grove]

i like how they all stood in the container processing their teammates dying every second

[pine roost]

Still waiting for the day

[tawny carbon]

Fax

[arctic grove]

never will happen

helis too popular to touch

[pine roost]

Well it’ll only make people better

Already fixed it on the Apache

[tidal trail]

Nice aimbot

[tawny carbon]

aimbot? that's holding a position xD

[obsidian lotus]

anyone ever headshot a pilot out of a heli?

[rotund kite]

I still looking for those braindead lobbies that I see people flanking on youtube
every lobby I join my team gets steamrolled so hard I can barely get past a 20 kills

[tawny carbon]

its very possible, yes

[obsidian lotus]

i did it in hardline years ago only time ive ever done it

[rotund kite]

I killed a pilot without having to destroy the chopper, but I was using another heli

[obsidian lotus]

i still remember the clip of a guy jumping out of his jet killing another guy in a jet with a rocket launcher then jumping back into his jet shit like that never gets old

[tawny carbon]

i did it in bf3, mainly bf4 and sometimes in 2042

only thing i havent done yet is snipe a jet pilot

its very hard but so awarding

[rotund kite]

my w/l is so crap, why I can't get in good teams Dice

I can't hold 5 flags alone

[tawny carbon]

just play for fun. stats is useless tbh

its a very casual sandbox game

[rotund kite]

I mean, there's gotta be a goal
the fun is the win, but the team makes it frustating to play

[tawny carbon]

fun is about teamwork. not winning

wins happen over time, never a need

[obsidian lotus]

i only enjoy games when im going well

i cant have fun with out succeding

[rotund kite]

yeah, teamworks is that thing that is missing
most my team is just camping on top of some random building
and ending the game 3/9

[tawny carbon]

just think positive and forget about winning

more you think about winning you will end up losing

think small to end out big

[rotund kite]

but the kills are not cutting it for me anymore
maybe I'm just tired, maybe I'm better off playing another game

but what single player games are boring

[tawny carbon]

You’re just over thinking it.

[rotund kite]

btw, next map
is there a release date that I missed?

[tawny carbon]

Mid season. It’s a full revamped stadium map from the ground up.

[remote kiln]

may specifically

[rotund kite]

sounds good, I just hope it isn't another desert map

[tawny carbon]

Stadium is a desert map

[rotund kite]

well, it looks like by 2042 the entire world is the sahara desert

[sour meadow]

i've found my favorite thing to do in 2042

get in a CAV and drive from point to point

trying to fight vehicles but my gunner is always trying to shoot a sniper across the map instead of the tank infront of us

[merry crypt]

What primary does damage to vehicles?

[merry crypt]

Because they’re more dangerous

[arctic grove]

just here to say u have a swaggy pfp

[merry crypt]

Can’t say that with a pfp as hard as yours

[arctic grove]

[merry crypt]

Anyways only thing I can think of is under barrel grenade launchers

[arctic grove]

under barrel or lmg with ap rounds

[merry crypt]

Do the anti material rifles go through said materials

Anyways thanks that leaves ~8 more things to unlock

Then I can have fun

[arctic grove]

that i have no idea

[arctic grove]

np im trying to unluck the drum mag for the SG so i can go rambo

[waxen quail]

Anyone wanna play ?

[tidal trail]

The material rounds used to do a decent amount of damage same with the rorsch-mk4 to tanks. Now, the Rorsch-mk4 rifle doesn't damage vehicles at all

[merry crypt]

Aw what

But raygun

[graceful valley]

Speaking of AM rifles

The NTW-50 SUCKS

[tidal trail]

It's a one hit kill if less than like 50m which is kinda pointless

[merry crypt]

If I’m 50m away from someone, I’m prob dead or about to be dead

[tawny carbon]

it was worse in Y1

it was really op asf

its very balanced now

[merry crypt]

Balanced is a hard thing to say

It's an ok sniper

[tawny carbon]

wym

[merry crypt]

I find most things it can do, a decent amount of snipers can do better

[tawny carbon]

it was doing about 20-30dmg per shot to any vehicle and one shotting people at any range... at least 150m forgot the one shot drop off

it was very bad

and very annyoying to deal with

plus battlefield is a teamwork game. its balances beacus if alot of explosives like rockets/c5s ect all at once. its deadly or multiple NTWs shooting at once from a distance

[merry crypt]

Yeah but unfortunately most lobbies it's every man for himself

[tawny carbon]

NTW shouldnt single handling vehicles alone

[merry crypt]

I use the NTW for tank harassment or to follow up on an explosion

[patent pivot]

imagine killine one of the driver with NTW in the tank

[arctic grove]

is being top of leaderboard even mean anything in this game lol

[tawny carbon]

fax

top dont mean shit tbh.

just a personal achievement like stats

[merry crypt]

It kinda feels empty being on top score

Most of the time it’s just a medic, tank who took a single rocket the entire match, or a lucky sniper

[tawny carbon]

Hence teamwork makes the dreamwork

[merry crypt]

It’s more like win by any means necessary

[arctic grove]

true i figurewd

[merry crypt]

Trade 5 bodies for 1 but as long as you win it doesn’t matter

Winning isn’t everything it’s just the only thing that matters

[arctic grove]

[tawny carbon]

You have 100+ assists and still be in first place and no kills. Same with revives and support. But it takes even more kills to be at the top

[arctic grove]

haha def never been there

[merry crypt]

Same

Falk def the easiest to do it with

Just throw ammo bags and shoot your friends

And ground

[tawny carbon]

Blasco, falck, angel, Paik, Casper

[merry crypt]

I keep forgetting Casper

[tawny carbon]

O, Rao and gadgets as well. I forgot

Many ways but doing teamwork.

All is more important than just getting kills

[amber kelp]

You can very easily get to the top with kills and captures alone.

[arctic grove]

i like sitting in corner with my cool drone playing games on phone :D

[merry crypt]

For medics you need your team to be doing bad enough to really need revives, heals, and ammo but not so bad that you get rolled

[merry crypt]

Bro the drafted iPad kid

[tawny carbon]

You can but you need to do more than supporting your team out.

More effort I should say

[merry crypt]

Killing enemies is technically supporting the team

[tawny carbon]

Yes in a way. But 2042 sorely leans towards teamwork more than other games for leadership board points.

Offensive stuff overall is less point gain than supporting teammates

[merry crypt]

I wish most people understood the necessity of supports

I mean supporting the team not the class

[tawny carbon]

True true

[merry crypt]

All I see is assault, sniper and supports sprinkled in

[obsidian lotus]

sometimes i forget you cant run and gun like cod in this game

[amber kelp]

BF players seem to confuse "teamwork" with "support gadgets"

[merry crypt]

Medic is a hidden class

[amber kelp]

you absolutely can

[obsidian lotus]

i cant yet im not that good

[merry crypt]

I play like that

[amber kelp]

Which BF game are you talking about?

[merry crypt]

I ain’t good either I just get bored easily

All BF games have almost no medics

Except BF1 I think

Cause the guns are decent

[amber kelp]

3 and 4 have lots of medics

[merry crypt]

Well damn we had vastly different experiences

[arctic grove]

me as the only recon in my squad :(

[amber kelp]

They get assault rifles in those games, people swarm on those classes

[merry crypt]

I think there should be at least one of every class in a squad

[tawny carbon]

There is more medics on 2042 more than other games.

[obsidian lotus]

why would people ddos game servers i dont understand

[merry crypt]

Yeah but assault didn’t have to deal with reviving people and them getting mad for not reviving

[amber kelp]

Observably false

[obsidian lotus]

trying to play seige but cant

[merry crypt]

Actually nvm cause you could just not equip defib

[tawny carbon]

I wanna see each specialist pick rate for 2042 tbh

[obsidian lotus]

scipt kiddies

[amber kelp]

this is true for 1 as well.

[merry crypt]

Same

[amber kelp]

You can do without a recon usually

[merry crypt]

That’s why i do my part

Recon is when you’re already doing well

[obsidian lotus]

just curious do snipers get mad when they get picked of by a guy with a acw from across the map??

[merry crypt]

Snipers always get mad

[tawny carbon]

They always get mad if it’s not sniper v sniper

[merry crypt]

Got hate for outsniping with an m44

[obsidian lotus]

i love picking snipers of with a assault rifle

its funny

[merry crypt]

I love using missiles to deal with snipers

I hate them that much

[onyx mica]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z7QgUzPHkBA

[obsidian lotus]

sometimes i sneak to where they are if they kill me and kill them from behind

😂

[arctic grove]

and if its not quickscoped 360 from across the map because its not skill

[tawny carbon]

It’s possible but very hard to do in BF games

[obsidian lotus]

i got a challange

[tawny carbon]

BF don’t play like cod unless your talking about BFV

[obsidian lotus]

take out planes and helicopters with tank shells

like its a sniper

i coulnt do it but im sure somone here can

[merry crypt]

Sniper v sniper is fun but usually it ends with 5 more snipers joining each side and no one ever dies forever

[merry crypt]

I mean it isn’t hard to do

Just a bit awkward in some versions of BF

All you need is an unskilled chopper and a dream

[tawny carbon]

Not really, just luck and timing

Same with tank shell v jets

[merry crypt]

Man jets are something else

So many times I get hitbox issues with jets

I just let them be now

[tawny carbon]

Jets is annoying to everyone especially helis fuck jets frfr

[merry crypt]

I like to ram into jets with helis cause I hate their existence

[obsidian lotus]

ever sniped a pilot out of a jet i would like to see that

[tawny carbon]

It’s very possible. I’ve seen clips. I personally haven’t done it yet.

[merry crypt]

Gotten close but unfortunately it never pierced through

I forgot that I needed AP for some vehicles

[placid echo]

I've once throwing knifed a Nightbird pilot

[merry crypt]

Now that is funny

[merry crypt]

Bro prob stopped playing for that day

[arctic grove]

my goodness im learning

[merry crypt]

Damn bro I believed you chill

[merry crypt]

Lovely

[arctic grove]

Ebaa wildcats are so op

[arctic grove]

I would uninstall

[merry crypt]

Bad things happen when I get in helicopters so i would’ve just let out a big sigh

Wildcats are decent?

[arctic grove]

No

[merry crypt]

The primary is no laughing matter

[arctic grove]

they are the reason that jets aren't played

[merry crypt]

Good

[arctic grove]

How 😭

[merry crypt]

I hate jets

[arctic grove]

why bc you can't fly them?

[tawny carbon]

Fuck jets with a passion.

They are annoying asf

[merry crypt]

Yes and there’s always a dude who breathes battlefield using them

[arctic grove]

I did I think that they're really good for holding back enemy vehicles

[merry crypt]

I can fly them but horribly

[arctic grove]

In the wildcat, just deter people from wanting to use the Jets

[merry crypt]

Depends on how willing the enemy is to ignore you

Harass a tank too much and bro will start aiming up

[arctic grove]

speaking of which

[merry crypt]

Somebody draft this man

[tawny carbon]

bro thinks its a comp or milsim game xD

[merry crypt]

He needs irl battlefield

What is bcn mean

[tawny carbon]

People like that, I despise ngl

[merry crypt]

Beacon?

[arctic grove]

yes

[placid echo]

Liquid Cringe is a good name lol

[merry crypt]

Nah I’m cool with them

Those dudes that can’t take accountability is worse

[arctic grove]

he was beaconing the entire areas while typing it out

my goat\

[merry crypt]

I hate getting blamed for “not doing my job”

[arctic grove]

u must be medic

i seen them get so much hate for 0

[merry crypt]

Yes

I love medic

It’s my passion

I see those lil pop ups and I start bolting in the front lines

[arctic grove]

Can only go up 45 degrees

[merry crypt]

Hills make that I’d say around ~60

Flip the guy over and bro can go 90

[arctic grove]

This dude

[merry crypt]

Always a way to aim up

Hatred is a strong emotion

[obsidian lotus]

i dont even pay attention

i just go around killing

and caping objectvies

[merry crypt]

Gamers have a 8 second time window

If they don’t see the goal within 8 seconds they swap to default

[arctic grove]

i suck at medic thats why i stay recon and i like disrupting their vision

[merry crypt]

How does one suck at medic

You stand behind your meat shields and when they go to sleep you awaken them

[arctic grove]

when no meat shields are upon me

[merry crypt]

You run to them

You can’t go front lines yourself so you gotta act like you’re teaming up with people

In reality you’re hoping the enemy sees him first and kills him

It’s basically false kindness

You let them think you’re kind so they die faster and you get more points

[arctic grove]

lol what hppens when a car stays stuckin obj for so long

[merry crypt]

OgreToes

[arctic grove]

man of culture

[ebon pilot]

if you're BAD

real gamer medics kill everyone and revive everyone they didn't kill

so they can kill them again!

[arctic grove]

[merry crypt]

But if I kill the enemy who’ll kill my teammates for me

Angel package can only come down so fast

Also misspoke front lines is only place medic should be

Just behind everyone so they can die

[burnt cloak]

Flyin One Tap anyone?

https://youtu.be/fSjpOo4b8tQ?si=xEjD2546i4UqRzm-

it took me sooooo fuckin long to get that shot

[burnt cloak]

That's fuckin nasty.... lol

[arctic grove]

man this game is so muhc fun

[burnt cloak]

Oh yeah it is, until it's not xD

[arctic grove]

i play league of legends so anything is fun to me XD

🥶

[buoyant lake]

do any snipers oneshot without a headshot

[fading timber]

qq did EA remove transport air vehicles from breakthrough?

[patent pivot]

So you're basically anti aerial

[fading timber]

No i want all the toys to come back. But did they? There are some UI updates im trying to navigate

[azure plume]

Does anyone need 1? Just found this discord 😅

[patent pivot]

Well, I know air vehicles are banned in rush

[fading timber]

Havent been able to find Hind/Condor spawns in any of the breakthrough maps so Im worried Dice removed them.

okay just read that its a known bug in patch notes
