[chilly jacinth]

balance for infantry and vehicle combat was awful

[arctic grove]

Adapt and overcome

[vocal tusk]

No U

[acoustic seal]

what am i adapting and overcoming? how do you adapt and overcome a bottomless supply of rockets as a tanker?

[chilly jacinth]

you die

[arctic grove]

Adapt and overcome

[vocal tusk]

Ignore the bot

[arctic grove]

Lmao

[acoustic seal]

average consoloid

[naive ember]

^

[arctic grove]

Then tell me how bf2042 is better with classes

[vocal tusk]

Youve literally not said how it was better before.

Do please explain before anyone puts any effort into explainign why its better now

[arctic grove]

Then make the first step?💀

[arctic grove]

Average Anime fan

[rotund kite]

No wallhacks characters 🙂

[arctic grove]

Paik still exists

[naive ember]

[acoustic seal]

plugged holes like angel rockets, introduced player readability for vehicle players (cursed be their name), got rid of "everyone is running c4"-itis

[rotund kite]

But she wouldn't be a class haha
Recon as a class would probably be Casper

[arctic grove]

Well your point is that Wallhack Characters got removed wich didn‘t happen they still have C5 wallhacks and LMG as well unlimited respawns almost anywhere on the map

[arctic grove]

I still see plenty of ppl running C5 as mackay with a LMG so the Problems not really fixed

[untold flower]

you could run falck with rockets?

shouldve bought the game sooner

[vocal tusk]

You know exactly what you are fighting at all times now.

You see an engineer icon, you know they have a launcher/explosives or mines

You see a support icons, you know they can probably heal themselves, and quickly revive other players you may have killed near them.

You see assault, you know they can heal themselves mid fight, have high mobility and have explosives.

You see a recon and you know they probably know exactly where you are on the map from spotting equipment.

Same for players on your own team, you know what to expect from those players, their class and what roles they are meant to play in a game.

[rotund kite]

My point was that if you remove specialists we wouldn't have a wallhack character since recon class would have the same abilities as Casper

[arctic grove]

Hmmm No not really

Casper still has 50/50 wallhacks

[acoustic seal]

this is because mackay is coincidentally the 1st or 2nd strongest character in the game and not because of over-wide c4 availability

[arctic grove]

AP grenade launchers exist

Lol

[vocal tusk]

It does nothing to vehicles

[arctic grove]

Hmmm maybe

[arctic grove]

Kinda does

[vocal tusk]

It does 3 damage

You dont play this game

[arctic grove]

Still something

[arctic grove]

I actually do lol

Doing no damage=0 damage

3 damage is still damage

🦅

[rotund kite]

You can only tell if someone is nearby, it isn't that strong
Spot devices have been in bf for a long time anyways

[arctic grove]

Casper has a sensor suit…

Lol

[rotund kite]

What I just said

[arctic grove]

Spot devices= SOFLAM

[wide hill]

isnt that what he said lmao

[arctic grove]

Spot suit

Ppl just couldn‘t accept the huge learning curve lmao

[chilly jacinth]

what curve?

[ebon pilot]

hey, one damage is one damage

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/850376380822323230/1170922317560418438/1.mp4?ex=6625d463&is=66135f63&hm=69f4266c9309b6103a581c78ea1248e78c5b511a1e5318a91c191762a01704c9&

[arctic grove]

Unlimited rockets

[vocal tusk]

You equip the M5A3, Falck or Mackay, then use C5 or the M5. Gee...what a learning curve.

[chilly jacinth]

curves arent flat

[arctic grove]

As a tanker yea

[vocal tusk]

As an anything

This is literally all players played. DICE own data showed it

[chilly jacinth]

i dont miss Angels sniping with the m5

[arctic grove]

Cry cry

[vocal tusk]

lol yeah...fire all 4 rockets, instant re-supply on his crate. What a time to be alive!

[chilly jacinth]

your trolling is low effort

[arctic grove]

Well Infantry could finally dominate too

I dont see a problem

[dusty sparrow]

some people seem to forget you can shoot lis missles

[arctic grove]

Real

[vocal tusk]

You lack the inteligence to see an issue of this is an actual opinion

and not trolling

[arctic grove]

I played 3, 4, 1, 5 and 2042 and i like no classes more

So i don‘t see any Problem

[arctic grove]

K old guy

[chilly jacinth]

i like it because i like it

[naive ember]

That's what she said

[dire hawk]

bro what are you talking about, AP Grenade does 19 against wildcaat and 15 against tank. Even HE grenades does more than that

[dire hawk]

not everybody has great opinions about things

[spare quest]

you never used the 40mm AP launcher before

[vocal tusk]

They are talking about the assault sticky nade launcher. Which does next to nothing against vehicles

[spare quest]

why would you even use it against vehicles max damage is 8 - 12

[dusty sparrow]

To finish em sometimes for example the cav

[dire hawk]

oh yea It only does 8

[kindred flint]

ive killed enough vehicles with the sph

anything to piss off vehicle players is a win

[sour meadow]

how many of you play 128 conquest?

[acoustic seal]

well now you gotta post stats

oh he left the server that's why it's not pinging lol

[chilly dove]

me, I count as 200 000 people

[sour meadow]

what

[chilly dove]

you asked how many, what

[sour meadow]

you're saying you ARE 200k people?

[chilly dove]

yes, i am ultra

[sour meadow]

thank god i don't play 128p conquest

too big, too chaotic, and runs like shit

[chilly dove]

Super fun,, more tactical, hardware skill issue (the entire game runs like shit)

[full burrow]

dafaq

[sour meadow]

i actually don't remember the last time i played 128p conquest

i think it was when Flashpoint came out

[acoustic seal]

128p cq is still boring... maps are just too fucking big

[full burrow]

128 is just most of the people fighting between a few flags that are close to other farming kills and everything else is empty as fuck

you go to defend some backwater flag and now youre alone for minutes

[sour meadow]

your team gets pushed back to spawn so you try to backcap and the entire enemy team spawns at the flag you're trying to cap by yourself

[chilly dove]

you all just need that game that bart was playing on the simpsons because of your attention deficits. snowboarding as we fights ninjas and explosions in the background nonstop

[full burrow]

spawns are fucked no matter what game you play tho

gamemode

[full burrow]

you are correct the is nothing worth paying attention to on 128

[chilly dove]

it's more tactical like I said. different style of play, Don't play it, leave us be

[full burrow]

how is it more tactical tho?

slow and boring doesnt = tactics

[chilly dove]

it requires a certain level of intelligence to understand. don't worry, I'll explain: Conquest 64 is half the amount of players. less threats to manage, and almost always less play space and fewer sites. Conquest 128 has more of essentially every, so it's more to manage. Therefore it's more complex. So tactical players require more things to consider. CQ64 is litearally the easy mode of the 2. The spawn timings are the same and you have to consider position more in CQ128. Simple.

disagreements are 100% fake news.

[amber kelp]

it requires a certain level of intelligence to understand.

[full burrow]

lol doubling the player count and map size doesnt guaruantee an equal distribution of those players across the map, in reality what you get is too many players at one location and not enough anywhere else, its just a very flawed design

[amber kelp]

To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand 2042. The gameplay is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of squad level tactics most of the matches will go over a typical gamer's head.

[chilly dove]

true.

Those who find CQ 128 too... anything. Just stick to breakthrough

or rush

[amber kelp]

I think 90% of players who prefer 64p play it solely because of the map design rather than anything else

[full burrow]

CQ 64 is where its at, you get the full on battlefield experience but far less downtime than you would in 128 due to not having open barren wasted space, unless of course you just sheep with the whole team in one of the few hotspot locations

[chilly dove]

it's just simpler maps like every time. They can't handle certain scenarios. Imagine asking your commanding officer: "I don't like this battle we have to do, can we have our foward base closer and only fight over these 3 objectives? Ask the enemy forces"

[full burrow]

I mean you are the exact audience they marketed 128 - omg higher number so it must be better

[chilly dove]

I literally didn't say that. It's got more stuff in there, more complex battles outside of sites, more fighting in sights, more people in the chokes and outside. More chain teamwork scenarios. Meatier collateral, more vehicles for the feel of squadrons

you're just really mad I have a difference of opinion

if you think you're the first of your kind... lol

[full burrow]

its not because your opinion is different, its because it is wrong >.<

[amber kelp]

[chilly dove]

lmao............

[naive ember]

128 BT was always fun

[pine roost]

TDM is the way to go

[chilly dove]

see when I do it, I'm kidding. when he does it, he's serious.

[amber kelp]

real men only play 128 player portal conquest 800% damage 10% health for the most complex and tactical game

[full burrow]

I did a sneaky raccoon face, surely thats an indication of jest

[chilly dove]

everybody knows the best gamemode in 2042 is solo conquest anyway. Anyone else who disagrees is just wrong.

oh that's what that is, alright

[full burrow]

serves me right for arguing with blue haired anime girl >.<

[chilly dove]

BOY, anime boy!

[pine roost]

You can’t argue with a hampter

That reminds me, I need to give florp here a makeover

[amber kelp]

which one is the hampter here?

[pine roost]

I am

[full burrow]

EA server room has multiple

[amber kelp]

🐹

[vocal tusk]

This is why I think flag uncap is too slow in this game.

They should reverse it and make uncap faster, but team cap slower

As well as bringing back flag proximity bonus

[chilly dove]

Too logical. Dice is going to instead release an update to make the P90 fire even slower in single fire. (those who know, know)

[naive ember]

128 all hacker conquest

[ancient peak]

It's always the worst players on your team that camp the vehicle spawn

[naive ember]

Seen heated arguments in chat about that

[dusty sparrow]

finally got my first tier 1 vehicle (cav)

[stone cradle]

yes pls

[sour meadow]

Nosahr is so fucking awful

I've never seen the RU win on that map

they always get pushed back to spawn

[kindred flint]

try and play 5 mins of discarded and its just torture

[patent pivot]

Nah, I won last time

[sour meadow]

the enemy team must've been asleep then

[patent pivot]

This was rush

[sour meadow]

i meant conquest

[patent pivot]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[kindred flint]

i dont think nosahr is that umbalanced

its easy to spawn trap both sides, its mostly just down to what team has the bigger amount of idiots

[white sparrow]

I hate being on attacking side of rush on that map

It's impossible unless u got a decent team

[kindred flint]

its very front loaded defender advantage

because...what are boats

[white sparrow]

Yeah they could have tweaked that map a lot to make it better

[mental delta]

Just to know : when do you think next game is gonna release ?

Had some discussion with some people and apparently people don't think it's gonna be 2025

(It's totally gonna be 2025 )

[kindred flint]

it doesnt matter when the game is finished

the investors will force it out next year

[mental delta]

I mean there's a French president that wants my country to get implicated in Ukraine so I'd like it if it could release before Putin comes to break our French balls

[kindred flint]

just surrender like you did before bfv launched

[mental delta]

Yo WTF bro ?

Stop that shit

[formal adder]

Hello

[mental delta]

I got bullied enough in #general for that

[mental delta]

Hello

[sour root]

i own bf2042 on steam but when i try to load it it says i cant

the same problem is happening with all of my EA games

[still vault]

https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues-PC/bd-p/ea-app-technical-issues-pc-en

[sour root]

ty

[slow tulip]

How would layoffs affect the next game?

Bf2042 had departures that was a serious problem

[mental delta]

Departures weren't really layoffs apparently, it was more like some employees getting sick of working for Dice and EA who chose to leave

[slow tulip]

Many of the experienced devs who worked on the previous games and experience with frostbite left after BF5

[still vault]

Like all fields of work, people quit, move, find other work.

[slow tulip]

Even more devs left after BF2042. Devs who joined DICE after BF5 also left after BF2042's launch

[still vault]

Especially after big projects are done.

Nothing surprising about it, happens to all game studios.

[slow tulip]

That was a serious problem for BF2042

[mental delta]

I think he's referring to the massive departure of many devs just as BF2042 was about to launch, like the people who made The Finals and founded Ripple Effect

[mental delta]

BF2042 was definitely not the good game to begin working for Dice

[full burrow]

I think I know their solution - just market the next game even better so it LOOKs like its going to be good

[still vault]

All people say are "people left", and as they always do near the end of a project as that is when they begin looking for work.
It means nothing unless you have numbers to show it's worse than other companies.

[slow tulip]

They even had someone as lead who worked on Candy Crush and his bio reads implemented microtransactions

He also left after BF2042's launch

[mental delta]

I think it was for mobile game wasn't it ?

[mental delta]

I just hope next game doesn't fuck around with specialists type of crap and shitty skins from launch

[slow tulip]

Mr Battlefield aka Lars Gustavson left after BF2042's launch. He was a creative director of many of the good battlefield games but BF2042 don't reflect that

[slow tulip]

No, for BF2042

[full burrow]

People been saying that they are going back to standard squad based systems, I doubt however they are going abandon the cash cow that is skins and other pointless things

[slow tulip]

It would be like bf5 characters i think

[mental delta]

At this point it's sure skins are part of the next game, question is just how lol ?

[full burrow]

but the argument that microtransactions benefit the player due to them having more income is BS because that money wont go to development it will just be pocketed, and the more they make from that the less effort they will want to put into other stuff

[mental delta]

What I personally don't want to get in next game is special characters like specialists or operators like in COD, let us just play some random dudes woth random skins as well that still reflects what class you're using

[slow tulip]

They even have a f2p battle royal coming as a separate game very likely

So microtransactions would definitely be there

They are trying to go the way of COD

[full burrow]

Skins should be as easy af thing, have 10 basic camo PATTERNS and 100 different colours, thats basic stuff, then you can make a few fancy looking ones

so you dont need to put a lot of work in

[slow tulip]

Ea says BF2042 and Bf5 were disappointing

[full burrow]

yeah sorry EA my bad

[slow tulip]

The next battlefield better be a masterpiece

[still vault]

False

source or nothing 😄

[slow tulip]

Ea said that in an investor call

[still vault]

Then they didn't say the game was dissappointing, but their sales numbers were. Huge difference.

[slow tulip]

Still has same meaning and the same effects

[still vault]

Not to the people reading what you just said

[kindred flint]

it disappointed their bottom line

[full burrow]

what if we do the whole get 100k signitures petition and ask the government to force EA to not be allowed to sell pre-orders

[slow tulip]

Bf5 could've done better

[kindred flint]

that thought is so undercooked its still moving in the pan

[slow tulip]

The government can't do anything

[full burrow]

sir this is a wendys

[slow tulip]

EA is a private entity and government can't exercise control over EA

Shareholders can though

[still vault]

I would be happy if pre-order exclusive content was illegal.

[still vault]

That is what laws are for

[full burrow]

you know while I do appreciate you guys dont have to respond to every stupid thing I say

just some of them at least tho pls, ty

[slow tulip]

They can be sued for false advertisement related bf2042 though

Become a majority shareholder of EA that could let you sit in the board of EA

[still vault]

I have seen many people say 2042 could be sued due to it's adverticement. Have not seen a single argument that could pass a trial though.

[royal swan]

Is this another bot argument

Like does this shit even matter

[full burrow]

"Well, if we're just bits and bytes in a digital dance, then this argument might just be the ultimate 'byte' of entertainment in the grand algorithmic scheme of things!"

[slow tulip]

Sales figures were low in BF5 for a totally different reason

[slow tulip]

Bf5 was making a comeback but it was killed soon after the important update

[chilly dove]

the closest lawsuit I saw was the one where game was performance wise unplayable on certain high end setups consistently. DICE specifically fixed it. Certain issues persisted but it's not even close to as bad as it was.

[royal swan]

Deep

But seriously what was the point

[chilly dove]

It never became a lawsuit but there were signatures and legal rep emails going around on how to proceed if x or y happened

they were targetting nvidia and ea

[royal swan]

Honestly a good end to an argument on legal issues is to actually provide proof

And I see none

Just a bunch of bullshit that means nothing

[chilly dove]

https://www.google.ca/search?q=battlefield+2042+class+action+lawsuit

[slow tulip]

4:35 a very good quote

[chilly jacinth]

No

[noble jungle]

So now that there’s no more battlepass what should I buy from the shop

[arctic grove]

so is 2042 dead now?

ive seen so many videos of it

[chilly jacinth]

yes servers are shutting down next week

[noble jungle]

No it’s just not getting anymore maps or battlepass”s

[amber kelp]

42 is dead. Anyone who is caught with a copy of 42 will have their PC's bricked and will be sent to jail. All videos, images, and articles of 42 will be removed from the internet

[naive quiver]

[chilly jacinth]

https://tenor.com/view/rip-gif-6090373173273048058

[still vault]

Like every game, at some points the maps stop coming. Doesn't mean the game is "dead". That is just horrible journalism and streamers that take it to the extreme to make headlines.

[noble jungle]

Isn’t it still getting updates

[naive quiver]

Just let it rest in peace amen

[slow tulip]

Older games had single player to enjoy

Occasionally i play the bad company 2 and BF1 single player

[amber kelp]

litterally dead unplayable in the grave.
Games cannot be enjoyed without a constant stream of the exact same thing. Its physically impossible. Unplayable

[naive quiver]

2042 has gone through countless hardships, it's time to end it

[slow tulip]

At least they kept their promise. They said they would deliver 4 seasons but they gave us 7 seasons

[slow tulip]

So did BF5 and BF4

[still vault]

Every game since 1942 had its jank 😄

[slow tulip]

I heard that they gave away free dev skins in BF4 as an apology for it's bad launch

[naive quiver]

So why didn't 2042 do this?

[mental delta]

No BFH was perfect and you can't convince him otherwise

[kindred flint]

imagine admitting to have played heros

[mental delta]

Even though they would torture me with car battery I wouldn't admit it

I haven't played it though

So I'm ok

[arctic grove]

Man,The wildcat feels so trash now with whatever update they did recently

[spiral folio]

anyone had this bug... like if I "enter" a vehicle it shows the view underground and doesn't move with the vehicle. It also does this with lis rockets, even the minigun turret

heros probably nothing to do with the word heroes

and bf heroes was peak bf

[chilly jacinth]

you cant kill a tank with sundance anymore

[dreamy topaz]

I know, but they used to

And you can, as long as you just use an AP UBG

[ivory canopy]

They gave out a Legendary for Mackay for anyone who preordered the gold/ultimate edition

iirc

Could be wrong; I see one comment saying you had to own the game before Feb 1.

Ok. I found the tweet from Battlefield; have to have owned the gold/ultimate edition before or on Feb 1, 2022.

This Steadfast package included said Mackay skin, skins for the M44, K30, and Bolte, the Rib Tickler knife, a player card background, and player card icon.

I use the Rib Tickler knife proudly

It's not as quick as the default knife. But it's so dramatic I actually kinda like it.

[spiral folio]

too bad they never added the m95

[hazy viper]

How does one compete against guys who go 150-30 every game? I have just played 5 games of conquest and there was one like that each game. Never the same guy, though.

[remote kiln]

just gotta learn the game

[kindred flint]

take away his gfuel

[stone cradle]

https://tenor.com/view/jarvis-jarvis-skill-issue-skill-issue-gif-24471438

but seriously, it's just you going against really 'dedicated' players

[stone cradle]

You could try going for more bot lobbies by playing at midnight in your region

[hazy viper]

Well, I play games for fun and while I have generally no issues with tryhards I would gladly avoid them. Which it sadly seems I am unable to do :/

[stone cradle]

BF is never about K/D for me honestly

ik it sounds corny but it's about having fun

The game awards you more based on contributions you made for your team

[pine roost]

What if having fun is doing well

[stone cradle]

because why else would I be near the top of the scoreboard for my team when I have meh/bad k/d

I don't care about k/d, I care more about the amount of revives I do

I strive for above 50 per match

I could just do rush xl and get double but rush xl drains me after just one match

If you're assault though then yeah I would focus on k/d and doing as much damage as you can to enemies

[pine roost]

Kd is the only real frame of reference I have for my performance outside of simply knowing when I make mistakes, so while I definitely do strive to play well, altering my gameplay to consider teammates and large enemy groups is fun

[stone cradle]

I probably suck at k/d because I only play once or twice a week

Only for quests mainly, have a huge singleplayer backlog

If this game actually added like 3 maps per season with plenty of guns then I'd play it alot more.

[pine roost]

Coursework is my reason

[stone cradle]

Oh yeah I have that too

Sometimes I would go a week or two without playing, means I miss the bonus weekly

I already missed it for the first 2 weeks

[pine roost]

I don’t give a damn about missions, but I need to reinforce proper aim technique after missing out for a week

Which can take a day or two

[slow tulip]

What if bf2042 had a single player where you get to play as the specialists, learn their lore and overall lore of the game. Would that have made the specialists likeable?

This is how it works in COD. The operators are present in the campaign

[rigid charm]

they are releasing a new BF next year?

[chilly jacinth]

not even close to all of the operators are part of the campaign

[patent pivot]

Might as well copy what og battlefront did

regular classes, then special

[slow tulip]

The old classes are already in the game but in portal only

They should've given us the standard solders

[copper fulcrum]

Keep complaining Dell

[misty portal]

not sure about this new gun

seems kinda bad tbh

[tidal trail]

Maybe it's the user not the gun

[tawny carbon]

my vote goes for pre season

[mental delta]

???

[kindred flint]

fucking absolute trash team cant even hold 2 god damn caps at the start of a nosahr game

[slim hound]

Haven was the most funnest I've ever had in Battlefield 2042, it's just such a good and compact map

[patent pivot]

its basically the small island from Karkand

[tawny carbon]

128 bt was the best in pre seasons

now 128 bt is gone. plus im a bt main lol

[rotund kite]

oh yeah, the bug fest
when there was no scoreboard and hovercrafts could fly
a true battlefield experience

[tawny carbon]

it was more fun in general during pre season

more chaotic.

now its meh... not chaotic now tbh

[mental delta]

It was ok but just like Rush it had fucking problems with explosives

Too many players and too many explosives at the same time

[tawny carbon]

never enjoyed rush since bf3

[patent pivot]

whats your thought on bomb timer

in 3, when the the final alarm beeps once, its over

4, it beeps 3 times

[tawny carbon]

i like 3 beeps than 1 time

bf4 rush was ok but better than bf3

[patent pivot]

4 definitely improved the bomb noise

[tawny carbon]

rush was at its best during bc2

[patent pivot]

better ambient echo

[tawny carbon]

prob due to how the game and maps performed

[patent pivot]

anywya

your favorite death cam?

[tawny carbon]

ummm....

[patent pivot]

with and without killer cam

[tawny carbon]

bf4 or 2042. cant decide

[patent pivot]

nahhh

[tawny carbon]

kinda dig 2042 abit more

[patent pivot]

2042 looks silly

[tawny carbon]

naw. its alot of info

[patent pivot]

id rather take V death cam than 2042

[tawny carbon]

me like info

ewww V death cam is disgusting

[patent pivot]

same thing

just in first person

[arctic grove]

love it when you join rush but everyone on your team is sniping

[patent pivot]

and better last breath experience

[acoustic seal]

ran into a prodigy in a bt game who can pull 50% hsr on the sfar and m5 over 1000 kills

he's just better tbh

headshotting people through smoke with the svk like it's nothing

man if you're still playing online shooters in 2024 just fucking cheat, there are no repercussions and nobody else has integrity anyway

and if it's not hard cheating then it's soft cheating by playing with controller AA

[slow tulip]

Can we get the cam from spawn select in BF4 in the next battlefield?

[slow tulip]

Bf4 gameplay is more fun

[patent pivot]

we're talking about death cam

[tidal trail]

Encouraging cheating. Do better

[acoustic seal]

"do better" lmfao

go back to reddit

[kindred flint]

people vcar macro and stream it as if theyre so god so, what can you expect

[hollow drift]

i just lost conquest by 1 point /:

[ebon pilot]

Manifest B sector is such a trap

[next onyx]

People really think roller in this game has soft hacks?

I'd agree on zoom snap which is annoying as fuck.

But if you're dying to some dude using regular ass roller aim assist that's your own fault.

[next onyx]

Macros are boring as hell honestly.

Dealt with some dude with a Max rpm glock 17 on mw3 with an actual macro (I could tell by the sheer consistency in their shots) and I just think yeah. You're boring as fuck.

[vital quail]

Oh my god I always have to get the gunner seat when the dumbest people fly the condor

It was a mistake to not have it be a heli

It's like people drop their controller or disconnect their mnk when getting in it

[ashen siren]

I tend to avoid getting in aircraft tbh...decent pilots are unobtainium! 😛

[vital quail]

I would not have even cared if they just flew over and jumped out

But hovering in spawn until they crash or the enemy jet has the freest kill ever is so annoying

[torpid vortex]

congratulations on some trash, game launch period that nerfed off meta shet that I used, 1 decent battlefield style map from 1942 no uncap conquest on battle of the bulge, literally congratulations on battlefield director stepping down what a f'ing call of duty clown, get out of the US and make russian dk sucking games in other markets. bunch of nerd nothing making sense code what the literal f to every single one of these dev studios that worked on this

hello im a returning player after few years

[gilded goblet]

Yep

[arctic grove]

the last one i played was bf4

[torpid vortex]

I was under the impression they purposely were lowering the quality of service so that people would quit playing in order to save on server costs... why you homo-erotic Russians are trying to fit in with each other and talk about medications with me i'm assuming is some type of culture tactic. who gives a holy f'ing shet about this terribly developed and created addition to the franchise.

it’s time to take pills my friend

[torpid vortex]

which pills the battlefield is a good game pill?

why are you talking about pills still? you've been talking about pills in every single one of your messages

pink hair avatar dude talking about pills, still

[vocal tusk]

Because your ranting is stupid. Noone cares, you are essentially talking to yourself

[torpid vortex]

no I'm not I want them to see what the what you really want to say opinion is about their development of 2042 and their jobs and their place in the US market, being not welcome, that it's that bad

[vocal tusk]

Youre about 3 years too late

Moving on

[lone rapids]

._.

[torpid vortex]

what, they are releasing the final season of battlefield, and are going to release another battlefield

[vocal tusk]

👍

[torpid vortex]

you're completely belligerent and then using emojis

[torpid vortex]

like you're a drunk person

"it's too late to talk about battlefield"

[vocal tusk]

This game is over, it doesnt matter

[torpid vortex]

No it's not over the final season is coming out

[vocal tusk]

And you are simply spewing a bunch of nonsense

[torpid vortex]

You're not aware the last season is coming out and the creative director has voluntarily stepped down from his position

[fickle wharf]

wut
we are in the final season dude, ongoing

s7

[vocal tusk]

Creative director left this game almost 3 years ago...I think you are living in the past

[torpid vortex]

Did I get the news late or something? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o7D_qSuQRSM

[vocal tusk]

Why would a game that isnt going to have any more content even need a creative director at this point lol

[torpid vortex]

The creative director of the franchise I don't think you're educated

[vocal tusk]

The creative director has been the same since it was changed post 2042 release

You are the mis-informed one, as you get all your info from YT videos

[torpid vortex]

I think you're a gremlin someone's child that never actually went to public school or private school seriously but have some grasp on english.

I think you're a gremlin

[vocal tusk]

Ah so youre one of those "Im losing, so time to insult you" type of people

[torpid vortex]

You didn't say anything that made any sense.

[chilly jacinth]

You need your pills

[full burrow]

silence, you stupid fucking gremlin xD

[vocal tusk]

The only recent director who left was Craig Morrison...and they left to pursue a less busy life away from AAA gaming.

[full burrow]

thats gremlin talk

[vocal tusk]

Vince Zampella and Byron Beade are still the chief directors of the BF franchise

With David Sirland being the lead producer of the next game

[torpid vortex]

I was assuming Vince Zampella was gone, look I just read an article saying the creative director that put together 2042 is leaving. So if that is craig morrison, I guess that's ok, but I think this is a zampella issue why it's a call of duty clown show

[vocal tusk]

Vince Zampella had no responsibility for 2042...

They were brought on board in 2022, around April or May

[chilly jacinth]

Youre assuming way too many things

[torpid vortex]

Ok, but he is from respawn and did titanfall which is people like you BSoD

complete morons

[vocal tusk]

Vince Zampella left COD way before it turned into what it is now

[patent path]

who's this fucking idiot and why are you guys interacting with him

[vocal tusk]

They are mis-informed, I have informed them now...but they seem to form their opinions from YT vidseos and PCGamer articles. So this is probably a losing battle

[full burrow]

oomg BSod, you ARE titanfall?

I had no idea!!!

[torpid vortex]

You didn't start your conversation coherently you have snapped out of some kindof stupor ok. Don't act like you have been coherent.

[vocal tusk]

Yes, I am actually Vince Zampella

I do know how to use punctuation tho, which makes my sentences readable.

[full burrow]

so what you are saying is that having perfect structural integrity of your sentances means you automatically make sense?

2042 bad, moving on

[torpid vortex]

That has nothing to do with you saying that battlefield's last season was so long ago that it's not worth commenting about. Yeah that's the whole reason I said anything because it's the last update, and the entire live service was garbage besides the battle of the bulge map.

[vocal tusk]

👍

agreed, moving on. Youre not saying anything unknown or original

[torpid vortex]

Respawn is garbage, titanfall didn't deserve a sequal, the other 3 developers are trash and couldn't put together a game. That's all I'm saying.

[vocal tusk]

[torpid vortex]

Awesome. Yeah.

Is there a best class?

[vocal tusk]

Depends on the situation/map

And what you want to be "best" at

[lone rapids]

To run in and kill 12 people and get out

[fickle wharf]

falck for bad habbit using the stim pistol on yourself and playing like assault

[vocal tusk]

Falck - Support or Mackay - Assault

Falck is probably still the most played specialist, as they have infinite self heals, can carry an ammo box for infinite ammo/nades and can revive downed players the fastest.

[lone rapids]

What about blasco

[coral flume]

Dozer or blasco can be fun 2

[vocal tusk]

they are fine, as they cant be 3D spotted, and can place a jammer that stops minimap inside its radius for enemies. But they are not all that good if kills and surviveability is your goal

[naive quiver]

Don't you think it's funny that the game announced that it will no longer be supported and now we are discussing whether the game is good or bad

[vocal tusk]

Not really. People will debate it forever

[lone rapids]

That sounds better ngl. I like disrupting multiple people

[vocal tusk]

Its an average BF game now. It was a bad BF game on release.

[coral flume]

It's like a kind of hardline edition ...

[arctic grove]

Anyone having issues joining a server? I just keep getting "Unable to load persistance data"

You're feeling mellow now right? Let me know when you need some more of that good stuff bud

[rotund kite]

it's a DNS issue
try using a vpn or changing your dns server

[untold flower]

@robust vapor @glacial quarry

[frigid matrix]

I think it’s a good game… solid 7/10

Rough start but it finally feels like a battlefield title with a good amount of content. People do have valid complaints though, like mine is the extremely cringey voice lines

I’d encourage someone to buy it but never pay more than 10 bucks for it and never ever buy their micro transactions

[acoustic seal]

revisionism already occurring... they're getting faster

[arctic grove]

I have no idea what that means lol,Never had this issue before?

[robust vapor]

I don't play battlefield on Sunday sir

chill day

[acoustic seal]

people want so hard to believe that 2042 is "saved" or "fixed" that they'll just say shit as if anything changed over the last 2 years, it's kinda sad

[frigid matrix]

It is fixed though lol

[acoustic seal]

quick to forget the content drip feed, maybe never recognized that the input is busted

[frigid matrix]

It was unplayable and now you can play it

At the end of the day, if people enjoy it, let them enjoy it 🤷

[acoustic seal]

nah, i'm tired of people with no standards slurping down absolute garbage in my hobbies and begging for more

[naive ember]

Sunday is the best day to play BF

[frigid matrix]

Then don’t play battlefield anymore 🤷

[acoustic seal]

your standard for things is "playable", i'm not taking advice from you

you could invent a game where you smash your balls with a hammer and say it's "playable"

[frigid matrix]

Do you play 2042 or no?

[acoustic seal]

it means nothing

[frigid matrix]

Do you play 2042 or don’t you though?

[rotund kite]

I had it before, I changed my dns server and it worked for me
try searching on google "windows 11 how to change your dns server to google dns server"
there's an official google page tutorial how to do it

[acoustic seal]

i open it once an update to check if the input is fixed and then close it again

[frigid matrix]

Okay, but if you abhorrently despise the game as much as you do, then just uninstall it and write a bad review then play other titles

[acoustic seal]

lol

yeah just ignore everything i say and keep sucking down dice's runoff

live in ignorance man, it's great while it lasts

you'll watch your hobbies get run into the ground by ignorant casuals and wonder what happened

[frigid matrix]

It does, specifically when I gave it 7/10. I always tell people that it’s a solid title now but don’t buy the game for more than 10 bucks and never pay for micro transactions because you don’t wanna reward them for releasing a broken game but sure I “live in ignorance”

[chilly jacinth]

you arent allowed to have a different opinion

[acoustic seal]

7/10 is wildly generous when the input doesnt fucking work

[frigid matrix]

What does they even mean? I press shoot, and it shoots. I click jump, they jump

[acoustic seal]

every time you move the mouse or nudge the stick there's some kind of acceleration-feeling thing that makes it feel like wading through sludge and it gets worse while shooting

so, so many lost gunfights because tracking people is harder for no reason compared to previous games

[frigid matrix]

I’ve never experienced that but I am on console

[acoustic seal]

you've "never experienced it" because you don't notice what you're doing with your hands

it's immediately obvious if you go back to bf4 or bf1 and try moving around

[frigid matrix]

I play those titles occasionally and I’ve never experienced that lol

But I’m just “ignorant” I guess

[acoustic seal]

yep! nailed it

[frigid matrix]

Yep woe is me

[acoustic seal]

reddit spends so much time bitching about people like enders cuz he SAYS MEAN WORDS OH NO but good players are the only ones you have that'll point out shit like this and they've all been run off

[chilly jacinth]

reddit spends their time saying game bad and content creators bad

[frigid matrix]

Fr lol, with half these complainers, dice could fix every complaint they have. Then they’ll come up with another 10 reasons why it’s the worst game in the world

12 reasons

[ashen siren]

4/4 I've had a shitfully bad team that got spanked...grrrr!

[untold flower]

@robust vapor @glacial quarry watch out for this superdoctor twat lol

he thinks im cheating so he put c5 on my tank

his mom defo dropped him on his head at birth

[robust vapor]

[chilly jacinth]

happened to me yesterday

i also kept getting hunted by some losers on a pondhawk loaded with c5

for hours

[kindred flint]

im ashamed i didnt think to do this hidden team tech before

[glacial quarry]

I did that once to some noob who stole my tank while im repairing it then decided to camp in base with it on offense

had to save my team

[untold flower]

@glacial quarry @robust vapor

accused me of cheating the previous match then put c5 on my tank the next match lmao

he already blew my tank up before i took this clip

then tried it again '

he left the tank and threw a c5 at 0:59

bro was waiting for someone to get a lock on me but was too late lmao

[robust vapor]

LMAO

[untold flower]

he went 12-11

[glacial quarry]

@untold flower you can always just ask one of the other guys in the tank to get out and shoot the c5 for u

[untold flower]

yeah but there was also the other guy who put c5 on my tank for some reason

some other dude

1:54

[robust vapor]

[chilly jacinth]

just got griefed by c5

[chilly jacinth]

yes

[rotund kite]

I totally agree with the dude above

[untold flower]

@glacial quarry look familiar?

[dusty sparrow]

I might have gotten some of my teammates team killed today lol

On kaleidoscope I shot an building sign in the hind and it fell on top of us lol

I like p90 for the look but I think scz is better overall

[glacial quarry]

that guy is like the worst hacker ever

hacked on redacted defense team and lost lul

[kindred flint]

68-11 with the rpt and zain on haven havent used that weapon/specialist in forever not bad for a first match of the day

[fickle wharf]

Sraw cant one shot attack helis??

[kindred flint]

liz cant either?

[ebon pilot]

neither can a M5 recoilless unless it's soflam boosted

[spiral folio]

the attack and mini but not the flying tank

[fickle wharf]

Yes it can

[ebon pilot]

no they nerfed it a bit back

to give the attack helis more survivability

[fickle wharf]

Only the velocity

[ebon pilot]

they gave the attack helis more armor so they don't instantly die from max health to a M5 shot

they take something like 85 damage

nightbirds still explode though

tasty tasty nightbirds

[fickle wharf]

Then rpg can one shot

[ebon pilot]

yes RPG can one shot since it has a damage bonus

[stone cradle]

damn they really went all out just for a LTM

[chilly jacinth]

its not a sniper

its the gvt

[pine pawn]

marksman rifle?

[chilly jacinth]

no

its in the same category as the shotguns

[pine pawn]

oh

that was why i couldnt find it

[rotund kite]

ngl Crimson Front is a cool name

and gotta love the AI deleting me from the map with the mc 880
while I'm trying to flank

[sudden onyx]

Installed bf2042 today and the first loading screen is taking way too long, is that normal for first time ?

[iron tendon]

M5 can one shot attack Helos

[ebon pilot]

ffs do i have to go find the patch notes

[iron tendon]

Just liz can’t

Please do

[violet otter]

What system are you on?

[iron tendon]

@ebon pilot can’t find a single source that says the M5 doesn’t one shot the attack helicopter

[sudden onyx]

Intel i5 12thgen, gtx 1650, 16gb ram win 11

[remote kiln]

are you using a hard drive?

[ebon pilot]

Because it did for 2 years and then when the attack helis got buffed the M5 couldn't always kill them

[sudden onyx]

SSD with 14gb space remaining

[remote kiln]

youre going to need more free space, a SSD requires at least 10-15% free at all times to be able to write to SLC cache

[sudden onyx]

Saw posts online suggesting to allow firewall for the game

[sudden onyx]

Ill see, i usually dont have proplems with other games around that

[ebon pilot]

then i went into a solo game to test it and killed the gunner but not the heli itself because magic idk

after that the next shot killed the heli

[scarlet cloak]

[glacial quarry]

as an asia server player i want them to do something about hackers being in every 3/4 games

[violet otter]

Always felt like there was some input delay in this game just never felt quite right

[tidal trail]

If there are 2 pilots, it takes 2 rockets

[pseudo pecan]

anyone know of a working test range code?

[vital quail]

M5 and rpg takes 1 rocket to take down any helicopter idk why this always is questioned

[tawny carbon]

Rocket VS heli is op asf

Especially if it’s free fire missile

[slow tulip]

https://www.reddit.com/r/battlefield2042/s/xuw5kTZTun

Why does everyone look disappointed? Is it only because they killed support for it?

Frontline was quite fun in BF1

[slow tulip]

Server browser. People are still asking for it.

[chilly jacinth]

its still in the game

[naive quiver]

https://tenor.com/view/battlefield-battlefield2042-monkey-gif-23352493

[mental delta]

I don't think it has anything to do with BF1 Frontlines tbh

[gilded goblet]

It's a banger gun

Underused

But situational

[next onyx]

The s22 is getting a buff thankfully.

It's a fun gun but the playstyle that's encouraged I feel kinda is too jank?

[slow tulip]

Server browser for all the modes, not just portal

[gilded goblet]

Fr

[next onyx]

The gist I get from it is reloading mid gunfight and firing off a bunch of shells.

That's how I succeeded with it.

[remote kiln]

dice say theyre never adding a server browser
playerbase ask for it anyways
repeat cycle

[next onyx]

To be fair they added an all chat after protest.

Which was easier to include but my point stands.

[remote kiln]

all chat wasnt something they put 15 announcements on

[next onyx]

I wish I knew why dice has an insistence against a browser for all out warfare.

It'll just lead the game to die out.

[remote kiln]

they tweeted about it constantly wdym

[next onyx]

You mean with no plans for adding it to all out warfare?

[remote kiln]

yeah

[next onyx]

Last I remember was way back at season 2 with them having no plans to add it in an official statement. Unless there's been devs here and there talking about it.

I probably just remember that better with how significant it was.

[chilly jacinth]

quickplay works so no server browser shouldnt be an issue

[tawny carbon]

Idk if it’s me. But i honestly never enjoyed Server Browser tbh

[slow tulip]

Non portal modes have persistent servers if people stay. Server browser should work

[chilly jacinth]

did you not read

[snow cliff]

3 matches today

2 cheaters on each match

not a single day for the past 2 weeks i can find a single lobby without a cheater

[naive ember]

Every match has a cheater

[snow cliff]

at least 1 yes

unless getting 200/5 is normal

in 10 minutes

[arctic grove]

Buff the EBAA Wildcat,I feel changes were made to it recently and it feels trash now,Feels under-powered,Jets,Choopers etc eat bullets from this thing up close and they shouldn't.

Also feel shoulder mounted rockets are too weak to take down choppers and jets,9/10 they pop a flare over and over.

[vocal tusk]

IMO it feels about right now. Its effective at being AA, but not so effective that a good pilot cant kill you. Before it was blatantly too OP

You could nuke a little bird from 100-0 armor in about 4 seconds before the last patch

With just the cannons.

[karmic gorge]

why can't ea balance air vehicles for public play

[vital quail]

The stinger might be the most useless item in the game

Waste a full minute shooting at a helicopter for them to flare each time

Now you have no rockets for anything else or mines/c4 equipped

[karmic gorge]

and no kills or xp

and now the chopper has returned and singles you out cause you're the only guy on the team trying to kill it

[arctic grove]

So i come across a list of vehicles apparently in 2042 but ive never seen them?

3937 Vodnic,M1161 MTV,M4 Sherman,M10 Wolverine,M3 Halftrack,Willys MB,Tiger 1

[vital quail]

Portal vehicles

[arctic grove]

are they on a specific map?

ooohhhh

[vital quail]

The 1942 modes have them

Or bc2/bf3

[arctic grove]

AHHHH no wonder, i play conquest

[vital quail]

Honestly might start leaving them alone after they waste rockets. No reason to kill as they will get the rockets back

[next onyx]

Yeah no ironically this is where quick match would work its best and if people wanted proper control they'd use browser.

Jeez.

[vocal tusk]

This post was less about why there is no browser, and more why they dont have all modes in rotation at the same time.

[next onyx]

U.S and the EU has such a fucking luxury when it comes to having actual servers.

Here we need a server browser to know weather or not the game is actually being played.

Or a specific game mode.

[vocal tusk]

Or region selection haha

I feel like region selection would make more hackers appear in EU servers tho

[next onyx]

I'd rather know what specific game types are being played.

[vocal tusk]

But id be for that, if it meant more players could more easily play games

You can do it with a VPN already afterall

[next onyx]

They discourage people from joining out of region servers.

[next onyx]

You say that yet those people who know how to access game files most likely knows how to go out of region and grief other regions.

[vocal tusk]

No need to do anything with game files. Just use a VPN, or the built in one on windows and you can matchmake into any region you want

[next onyx]

What I mean is that no matter what you do to keep people out of region, people will always find ways around it

[stone cradle]

why would there be a server browser for hazard zone. No one even plays that anyways

and it's not like the server browser would be the only way to play, simply an option

Quick play would always still exist

[vocal tusk]

That post is nothing to do with a server browser, that is why

[stone cradle]

what

[ashen siren]

US and EU are pretty much the only consideration for servers, and being anywhere else in the world means you basically don't matter, but we'll take your money for the game anyway. It's becoming more of a thing, and is gradually turning me away from online play with most things these days.

[stone cradle]

I would have no issue if half the launch maps weren't pure garbage

Also I wish they actually showed you which map you're about to deploy on while you're not in the main menu(ie. in the shop or changing your loadout)

So many instances of me going back to the playlist page and then I see Hourglass and there's not enough time to back out

Again, another thing a server browser would solve, I don't want to touch hourglass ever, no matter how much they rework it, it's still an atrocity of a map

[next onyx]

Can't have free choice. Need to replay the same map over and over and be forcibly ejected.

I'd play portal if they didn't cuck us out of progression with AoW compliant servers.

[stone cradle]

Or if most the servers weren't XP farms and/or "REALISTIC 500% HARDCORE MILITARY SIM"

[ashen siren]

I'd just like to select which maps I'm happy to play...like how fucking hard is it?! Basic shit like this has been in older games, so not like they don't know how to do it

[vocal tusk]

I wouldnt even care about the first map I join into, if that server was persistent and all playlists had set map rotations you played on repeat.

[snow cliff]

the latest news about bf2042 means there won't be any more seasons or new maps ?

[ashen siren]

I have ZERO interest in playing Haven, so let me opt out of your shitty, poorly thought-out and executed map.

[stone cradle]

Why does aow even have non persistent servers, it's not cod. There's no eomm anyways

Only further proves this game was cobbled together as a 'Battlefield' game last minute

[snow cliff]

if the company who made the game abandoned their own game

why wouldn't i abandon this shit as well

with the amount of cheaters lately

might as well just uninstall this shit

[violet otter]

Nobody is forcing you to play. Plenty of other games out there

[arctic grove]

Doesn't seem like it, Although personally id much rather them focus on the next game.

just hope that its not a slide show to get into matches, Not plagued with DLC crap,and no heroes/specialist's lol

[ashen siren]

Exactly right! After the S7 launch, I've nearly completely stopped playing it, and have been pumping time into Gran Turismo instead. Once the new BF drops next year and they "hopefully" have it sorted, then I'll re-engage with BF properly.

If you're not having fun, don't play it...pretty simple really!

[naive ember]

This is the best BF and currently the best fps out right now

[pine roost]

Feels good trying to open up Reddit for some interesting tidbits of fun knowledge only to be bombarded by 2042 negativity. I’ve come here to brighten my spirits, how goes things?

[kindred flint]

lmao 2 fucking mackays falck and blasco for a constant spawn becon..fucking sweat squad, and still lost

[pine roost]

Still can’t bring myself to enjoy blasco

I get she’s strong, but the gadget just feels a bit passive y’ know

[kindred flint]

i played like a fucking potato and just managed to secure over 2kd by the end same cunts kept killing me over and over

[slender terrace]

Hey guys, I'm a new player to this game, kinda need help understanding the weapon unlock requirements about the mtar-21, it says I need to have kills and assists with a-91(portal), I hosted a game of bf3 in portal and got 100 kills with a-91, but the requirement's progression is still empty, why is that?

[slim hound]

There's some gimmick regarding which type of game will count towards that progress

[vital quail]

I think weapon unlocks require you to fulfill the requirements in non-portal matches. So you need to unlock the a91 first (non portal) and then get kills with it in normal games

[ashen siren]

If memory serves me right, portal games don't count to anything. Going in a co-op match against bots up to 360 kills does count however.

[pine roost]

In this case it should since you required to use a bf3 era gun, either the exp level was limited enough to not count towards it or it was bugged

[stone cradle]

2042 sub is pretty balanced

main bf sub sometimes straight up act like incels

[vital quail]

There was a post recently about the little lore quotes at the bottom on the screen when loading and it was funny af

[stone cradle]

oh yeah that meme

[vital quail]

Every time I load a match I see a new name and organization but have 0 clue what it's about

[stone cradle]

the codex explains them

Though the game when booting up a new season for the first time should show you those lore videos they post on twitter

Barely anyone know they exist

[vital quail]

If I open bf2042 the last thing I want to do is read hundreds of paragraphs instead of play the game

Idk if there is one, but they should have had a section of the battlefield/EA website with the codex as well

With hyperlinks and helpful annotations that reference previous lore in the codex, too late for that now though

[remote kiln]

https://theexodusarchives.com/Codex/Codex

2042 is so damn unfun. The bullet deviation is absolutely atrocious.

Everyone hated bloom in BF1 and they thought to themselves "Hmmm. It seems that RNG bullet deviation received widespread negative feedback, so let's add it to 2042 and make it five times as extreme."

[remote kiln]

? its nowhere near as bad lol

its literally just battlefield 4's 2.0

[bitter thunder]

Is that so? Idk it's been a while since I played BF1 but I fucking hate the bloom in 2042

[remote kiln]

yes its nowhere near as bad as bf1

bloom in 2042 is based on continuous firing if you want to avoid it burst fire

[bitter thunder]

I've noticed that, however it's just not a fun mechanic. RNG spread in FPS games is simply redundant.

[remote kiln]

it wasnt in 2042 for ages and it was worse for it, so its necessary

just get around it its not a big deal

[bitter thunder]

How so? I didn't get to play the beta.

[remote kiln]

because you could laser people from across the map with no effort at all as there was no bullet deviation

assault rifles became snipers and smgs became assault rifles, it was a worse system than exists now

[bitter thunder]

I mean, that's more on part of poor weapon balancing rather than spread

[patent pivot]

TPS is fine?

[remote kiln]

no it was because, you could laser people lol, has nothing to do with balancing

[bitter thunder]

Yes, you could laser people because the guns had very little recoil. Bloom isn't an end-all-be-all solution to it.

[remote kiln]

nobody said it was

its not this hell incarnate youre making out

its necessary, thats all that was said

[bitter thunder]

I don't believe that to be true when guns could've literally been balanced to not be deathrays.

[remote kiln]

youve not played the beta as you said, so good luck with that

[slow tulip]

Battlefield outer space when?

[bitter thunder]

Well no. But based on what you've told me and my years of playing FPS games and past Battlefield titles, bloom really isn't necessary when you can simply give guns a punishable factor; such as harsher recoil in the form of horizontal recoil or camera shake.

[slow tulip]

Older games have better recoil

[remote kiln]

years of fps games and past titles? lol my guy, bloom is in battlefield 3, 4, 1, 5, what are you talking about?

its in every single one

[bitter thunder]

I know, and it isn't as bad compared to 2042.

[remote kiln]

??

did you miss battlefield 3 or something?

[bitter thunder]

I don't believe so? And that is only one of the games you've mentioned.

[remote kiln]

battlefield 3 has suppression based bloom?

[bitter thunder]

that is only one of the games you've mentioned
I never mentioned one specific game.

[remote kiln]

we already established 5 minutes ago that it is less severe than 1 lol

this "past experience" not doing you any favours

[bitter thunder]

Ok and? Just because bloom was terrible in BF1 doesn't justify 2042?

[remote kiln]

you didnt play the game version that existed without bloom, it was a worse system for it, so you cant judge it

end of the case really

[bitter thunder]

Concession accepted bud

[arctic grove]

Good evening noobs

[bitter thunder]

If I had embed perms I'd post a clip of me whiffing every single shot at ~10 meters because of how terrible the bloom is.

[remote kiln]

just burst its not that difficult

if youre full clipping a mag dont be surprised if you whiff

[arctic grove]

Battlefield 2042 is coming to a close and Battlefield Black Ops is the next game according to leaks

It will be realistic like ready or not

[bitter thunder]

I don't think bursting would've saved me considering that I literally missed every shot, even the ones at the beginning of the spray which aren't as intense.

[arctic grove]

But 24 players

[slow tulip]

Bf1 bloom isn't bad

[slow tulip]

Battlefield warzone

[bitter thunder]

Elaborate?

[arctic grove]

Battlefield warzone is already taken

[slow tulip]

They have a f2p battle royal in development, it's led by an ex COD executive

[patent pivot]

skip me with that shit

[bitter thunder]

Ngl RoN and Battlefield sounds like one hell of a confusion combination, considering how vastly different those games are.

[remote kiln]

bryon beede specifically, the guy who made warzone is leading the one in battlefield

[arctic grove]

Battlefield Black Ops will be small like BFBC2 but gameplay similar to ready or not and vehicles gameplay like ww3

[slow tulip]

They have vince Zampella. Apex legends is quite successful

[patent pivot]

you're pulling bat shit info

[bitter thunder]

That... honestly sounds like a shitshow

Unless you're trolling which I highly suspect you are.

[remote kiln]

hes just making it up as he goes

[bitter thunder]

Figured as much.

[arctic grove]

😄

[slow tulip]

Next BF would be about NATO vs a PMC

Similar to COD advanced warfare

[arctic grove]

Real talk the next Battlefield will be connected to no pats since DICE is making something similar to COD

[pine roost]

The next game will be about postman pats

[patent pivot]

next game will bring back China

[bitter thunder]

2042 itself is a bastard child between MW19 and BF4.

It seems they're more inclined to go down the CoD route.

[slow tulip]

Classic soldiers are coming back according to the rumors. So no specialists

The specialists were cringe

[bitter thunder]

Thank fuck, I absolutely hate the specialist system.

I don't give a hot shit about their "lore", I just want to be a random soldier in the middle of nowhere.

[arctic grove]

I wouldn't count on it since EA wants to profit off live service

[slow tulip]

They are trying to steer the battlefield franchise towards COD

[arctic grove]

The lore is already set 😄

Next Battlefield will still have no pats

[pine roost]

What about it is steering itself towards cod

I don’t play it so I’m genuinely curious

In your eyes anyway

[bitter thunder]

I mean I don't care about the specific characters, in fact I find the fact that their stories are shoved in your face quite annoying.

[slow tulip]

They are trying to copy what COD is doing. Very early on the development of BF2042, EA told dice to copy what's popular. So they decided to make a BR but it got scrapped.

They decided to make a all out warfare with an extraction shooter

Specialists were added because BF5 characters proved a financial success and COD operators were also a financial success

[pine roost]

If anyone actually thinks 2042 was going to solely launch as a br then I’d say they’ve lost their marbles

It would make zero sense for a mainline title to be a br in place of an actual bf

[pine roost]

That’s got nothing to do with cod though, that’s just the extraction craze

The only thing I see that they took from it is traversal sprint

[wicked marsh]

Im already happy if they just bring the spirit and the balance of battlefield back

I aint playing battlefield to play cod

I want vechicles

I want fair balance

Dlc system was much better too

[tropic cliff]

Playerbases will never be happy

[wicked marsh]

But ngl after bf5 and bf2042 if they fuck up again they will def lose the core bf community

[wicked marsh]

Seemed alot happier in bf 3 / 4 times god even in bf 5

This is by far the worst bf ever

The current state is what it shouldve been released as

What we got back in the day was a mess

Only thing it had alot was bugs

[tropic cliff]

Feels like the new industry standard nowadays

[wicked marsh]

Yup

Many new releases fail

[tropic cliff]

I wouldn't be surprised if car manufacturers did that too

[wicked marsh]

I mean looking over at cod they arent running a much better path ngl

And other triple a titles or big game releases failed

Ig the whole gaming industrie is dead these days

Just play minecraft

That game cant fail ya

[amber kelp]

Just multiplayer FPS games.

[wicked marsh]

Idk look at jedi survivor, I personally enjoyed it and in the end it was a good game

But the problems at the start

[amber kelp]

never played it

[wicked marsh]

Well to sum it up

3070ti ocd and a ryzen 7 5800x 20 fps

But that was at launc

Launch

Idk shall be better now ig

[amber kelp]

You still have big hitters like Baldur's Gate releasing and theres a new wild indie success story every month. It is only certain parts of the game industry that are cracking, mainly the larger companies

[tropic cliff]

Typical EA exec incompetence pushing rushed product just to line their pockets

[vital quail]

Literally the best game of all time came out last year lol

[wicked marsh]

Yeah ur right on that

[vital quail]

How can anyone forget The lord of the rings Gollum???

[amber kelp]

Its hard to remember because a game that beautiful is hard to comprehend

[slow tulip]

Look at cyberpunk

[wicked marsh]

The worst thing is probably how dirty they did the ghost recon line

Breakpoint also started as a mess

[slow tulip]

A fps game is coming

Star wars outlaws isn't looking good anymore

[wicked marsh]

Idk I heard some rumors too, about it no longer being open world either

[tropic cliff]

not xdefiant

[wicked marsh]

That will kill it for me probs

[slow tulip]

Sweet baby inc and ridiculous pricing

[wicked marsh]

Whats the price

[slow tulip]

They have splinter cell remake in development aswell

[wicked marsh]

70 bucks bro

Tf

How do we pay more for games that get worse

That industry is just a scam at this point

God bless minecraft still costing 25 bucks

[thick acorn]

Is this game doggy?

[wicked marsh]

Bf2042

?

[thick acorn]

Yuh

[tropic cliff]

yes

[wicked marsh]

Service and updates will end soon

The balance is terrible

They only listen to the annoying part of the community

And its a cod attempt

So idk

For a bf

Yeah its dog

[amber kelp]

For BF6 Id probably still wait after launch regardless of quality solely because of this. $70 is a tough sell especially when AAA cannot guarantee quality

[wicked marsh]

Yeah very valid I remember when everyone called bf2042 the cod killer

That was the biggest lie

Ever

Ngl

Only thing its killing is the battlefield franchise

[tropic cliff]

Don't they say that with every Battlefield game?

[amber kelp]

Yes

[wicked marsh]

Well u got a valid one there

[slow tulip]

People would preorder the next BF just like people order cod each year and complain.

People were saying don't preorder since BF4's bad launch. People said again don't preorder when BF5 came out(preorder went down, after ea's response)

[tropic cliff]

I think execs need to interfere less with developers

[slow tulip]

A significant portion of the fan base would still preorder the next game regardless

[wicked marsh]

Get the idea of bf3 and later bf4 back, get the good devs back and scrap the idea of making this cod like AND FOR GODS SAKE DONT RUSH IT AND ONLY TRY TO PROFIT OF COSMETICS and ur good to go

Maybe we get a good bf

In the year 2042

Like irl

Msybe

I stopped hoping for it either way

[tropic cliff]

Or do what COD did and remaster the older games

[wicked marsh]

Aslong as they dont touch the balance im gucci with that

I mean bf3 and 4 werent always the perfect balance

But given what they are releasing now I doubt they can get anywhere near

What we used to have

[quiet wing]

[brittle forge]

Honestly? I kinda doubt it

BFV didn't sell that well cause of annoucement trailer

This had much better marketing, but the worst launch in franchise history with the exception of BF4

[tropic cliff]

Also the fact that after launch it took months for 2042 to get its first season of content

[ebon pilot]

if it launched in a decent state it wouldn't have been 6 months

it was originally supposed to be 2 months of pre-season

they scrambled to put together weekly missions for cosmetics because priorities shifted

[slow tulip]

Bf4 made a comeback a year later. BF5 was also getting better after 2 years

[kindred flint]

bfv not selling well was a content creators wet dream

well first they were able to bitch for months about "ree trash game" then farm content post release about "hurr didnt sell well" when it was actually a fun and perfectly fine game

[next onyx]

I feel like round when bf5 was advertised that's when the video games grifters came out.

Remember when the biggest controversy was battle front 2 and the loot box debacle.

Now the biggest controversy is a former head dev getting his fans to attack a narrative development and consultant studio.

God fuck this.

[rotund kite]

it's just funny that while Battlefield went neutral and we have nopats
Helldivers went full patriotic and is doing very well lol
I think shooters nowadays are too afraid to offend, they should dare more like Arrowhead is doing

I know bf and helldivers don't belong in the same game category
I'm talking about the War narrative

[next onyx]

Helldivers wears it and mocks itself.

You know. Yeah its a funny game where you kill bugs and robots. But it makes it painfully obvious that it's parodying itself.

[north shell]

I really do hope that when full seasonal support is dropped for 2042 that we will at least get old events that rotate in and out

I'm sad to see them pick themselves back up with this game and when I feel like they are finally starting to pick up steam again they decide to drop it

This was gonna be my first real battlefield experience. I hadn't really played much of BF1 or BFV but I had all my stuff hyped and ready to go when 2042 was announced

[ebon pilot]

time is a flat circle

[amber kelp]

Helldivers went full patriotic and is doing very well lol
Youre aware its satire right?

[kindred flint]

Just like the earth

[robust vapor]

BFV in Asia seems really low populated after the EAC update

[amber kelp]

theres no chance they were all cheaters right?

[robust vapor]

Not cheaters just Kung Fu chair gamers

Won't be surprised if they're playing from Wuhan

[amber kelp]

7th largest chinese city

That wouldnt be notable

[robust vapor]

Bro they use qigong reflexes to fold your ass

💀

[amber kelp]

one day people will learn enough about China to actually be funny

[glacial quarry]

AH is such a based studio dice should learn more from it

[arctic grove]

[wicked marsh]

Recently made 65kills with jets given the state of them in bf2042 thats pretty dope ngl

[chilly jacinth]

theyre so easy now that they got rockets

[azure zenith]

Is it just me or are lobbies getting easier? I dropped an 90 kill game last night. Usually I gotta grind for that. But it was pretty alright.

[wicked marsh]

Idk U run them but ngl I love the main gun too its just cool to kill people with it

[arctic grove]

thank u
