@viscid bone was Flashpoint supposed to be part of the Frontlines map rotation?

west lichen
#

i really regret i didn't capture it

#

When I asked our community, no one had the same experience, and I've never heard of flashpoint map added, so I asked.

#

ah same issue in a normal match, with normal 50ms ping Hmm

naive quiver
#

Hmm @chilly jacinth your regular roles will be gone soon

kindred flint
#

and my internet doesnt seem to be down on speed either Think_Eyes ... really do be the BF gods saying just dont play

mental delta
#

Please Dice need infos on next game or Crabs dies

naive quiver
#

Next battlefield specialists is more compatible than ever before in battlefield history

mental delta
#

If that happens I hold you responsible

naive quiver

#

umm... Did Dice announce that they will add more frontline map layouts?

next onyx
#

Not sure.

chilly jacinth
#

i did play it on flashpoint

#

so its probably gonna get added to more later down the line

arctic grove
#

is it just me or when playing Liz and you fire the G-84 TGM and your going to control it so just locks the screen on another place than the missile itself?

west lichen
#

maybe it has possibility that they will add frontline layout at last update with Control mod that they said they will update at portal

#

if they really have frontline layout of other maps

kindred flint
#

lmao heavy barrel high powered ak5c is so cursed its kinda fun

#

loses in close quarters easily though

chilly jacinth
#

it shoots painfully slow

kindred flint
#

oh god yeah

Got to get ready for the mid May lmg release leo

chilly jacinth
#

wish it was here already

kindred flint
#

its going to be op but how op?

#

just used the avancy for the first time in like a year.. LUL shits still broken easy

chilly jacinth
#

all of their helis are camping our spawn

#

great

#

base AA was a thing for a reason

kindred flint
#

static MGs or missile launchers? never heard of them-dice dev

spare pasture
#

Anyone have any good ak5c tips or loadouts

last willow
#

Anyone get a weird first person glitch in the AA?

#

When I turn the turret, the inside cockpit springs into my view from the left or right side depending where I aim

#

Don't know if it was a one-off thing (Arica Harbor match) or introduced from the latest patch

ebon pilot
#

people have no idea what to do

kindred flint
#

lmaooo this fucking cunt assault player who loses the match tries to shit talk me at the end

#

i got 1400 score he got 1011...but like 10 more kills than me...and a dozen more deaths leo

last willow
#

And also, yeah idk Frontlines isn't playing well

#

Seems off

#

Meat grinder anywhere it feels like

chilly jacinth
#

exiting and entering will fix the cockpit glitch

last willow
#

I hate meat grinder gameplay

kindred flint
#

discarded is absolute fucking trash in that mode though god damn

#

the fucking snipers on the edges of the map FUCK OFF AngryFace

#

I love Control

chilly jacinth
#

ive found it happens when you spawn into em in the menu

last willow
#

Feels more spread out but still chaotic in a way that flows right

ebon pilot
#

Control is only a meat grinder at the end

last willow
#

But that finish is fun

#

That last push is so fun

#

There's more map space too

ebon pilot
#

It also lets you use vehicles

#

Which spice up the flow

last willow
#

Weird how just a feel minor details can change gameplay so much

chilly jacinth
#

i personally dont like the last part

last willow
#

To each our own right?

chilly jacinth
#

cause i feel like it kills the pushing

#

and makes people too scared

last willow
#

In control or frontlines?

chilly jacinth
#

frontlines

last willow
#

Oh yeah

#

And the tickets are too small

ebon pilot
#

only one side gets vehicles, too few tickets

last willow
#

I tried two matches yesterday and couldn't

#

Actually quit the second

chilly jacinth
#

i quit a bunch until i got 100 ribbons

orchid tusk
#

its alright

last willow
#

I commend you for battling through soldier

kindred flint
#

whats the fastest ribbon method? Hmm changing between blasco and falck?

ebon pilot
#

I think it might be helpful if the more times you push into a base the more reinforcements you get.

So the first time you hit the enemy base, you get 40 tickets. If you get pushed out and come back, you have 60 tickets. This way it becomes easier to overwhelm a team eventually.

chilly jacinth
#

probably support

#

revs and ammo

#

i did both recon and support

spare quest
kindred flint
#

yeah the only thing that i lack on falck at the end of the match is uhh spots..i can only Q so much

#

omfg the casper drones too

#

am i the only one on the team that sees them???

ebon pilot
#

Play Rao

#

Hack the mosquito drones

chilly jacinth
ebon pilot
#

Kill them

#

Kill them all

kindred flint
#

i have 200 rounds of lmg....its enough for a drone leo

#

god frontlines fukcing sucks

#

the maps are awful for them

#

haven is just people camping in buildings

#

redacted is just fuck

kindred flint
#

honestly i think haven would be waaay superior to discarded

spare quest
#

discarded frontlines is the worst imo

kindred flint
#

since that is just like fucking flat open ground for miles on the edges...then all the bullshit clustered around the caps

#

snipers sitting 200+m away popping shots off like worthless trash leo

#

haven doesnt have those massive sight lines at least...and engineers should just blow up all the buildings but people arent smart enough or have enough ammo

spare quest
#

C5 drones also work great on haven Okayge

kindred flint
#

how many c5 does it take to destroy a wall

fickle wharf
#

1

spare quest
#

just 1 i guess

patent pivot
#

in 3, a 40mm grenade can't destroy all walls around it

#

But a thrown grenade can

Bf3 jank

sour meadow
kindred flint
#

the jankness of the pieces of ship laying around make it so easy for mackay bastards to do that though

#

so i know 160m away behind that little piece of debris to my right theres a sniper im trying to hide from...and now theres a guy above me to the left i also have to deal with CatRee
shit like that was happening to me constantly

spare pasture
#

I can’t stand in haven when I have to know where the next person pops up from the 100 buildings

chilly jacinth
#

level all the buildings

#

problem solved CursedCat

naive ember
#

Map with no buildings

#

Problem solved Kappa

median nexus
#

Anybody wanna play

white sparrow
#

It's just a skill issue for people who complain about it being too many buildings

#

One of the best maps they made so far. But I'm also not the typical fanbase. I enjoy infantry fights close quarters

amber kelp
#

buildings on haven would be fine if the visibility wasnt terrible

white sparrow
#

Feels like every other map on 2042 was built for tanks and sniping

spare quest

finally done with frontlines CrabRave

wispy tinsel

Funny how poeoples tripping that EA stop making contents for 2042 almost 3 years after launch lol When BF4 last piece of content Last stand was launch 1 year after BF4 launch 🀣

#

COD and infantry casual players have taken over BF franchise narative .. Asking to ruins what made 2042 a true combines arms BF

#

reducing scale . ruining maps , streamlining the experience , making Metro 24/7 corridor grenade spam maps

wispy tinsel
#

When you use a AR or SMG or LMG you use the terrain to close the gap at the range you can deal with your targets or you stay in zones that are manageable

mental delta
kindred flint

lmao haven US side...we capped middle capped next point...pushed MCOMs and got them both in 1 time being in the zone leo absolute shit enemy team

without mentioning BF4 was unplayable until August 2014 with all the dsync hitreg etc..

mental delta
#

We had nocturnal operations and 1 or 2 other maps as well

wispy tinsel
#

lol Light setting

vocal tusk
#

Bf4 was a solid BF game behind the bugs tho.

mental delta
#

Which made a total of 20 DLC maps and 4 or 5 free maps

#

BF2042 got 7 maps in 2 years, if you're happy with that I don't give a shit but your standards are pretty low and that's just on you

wispy tinsel
#

BF4 was the worst ever launch of all BF games was unplayable until almost a year after launch a good 9 to 10 months at least

mental delta
#

Now stop trying to comforting yourself by shitting on other games lmao

remote kiln

#

2042 was not a proper BF game until around season 3

at least if you're saying something, be correct about it

mental delta

community made maps were bad lol πŸ˜†

remote kiln
#

cte maps bad?

vocal tusk
#

It is, it's just not a good BF game. I think it's a decent, enjoyable game, but it's a bad BF game.

dude what are you talking about

wispy tinsel

yes terrible

I also didn't like the community map to be fair haha

For me 2042 despite haring hero like specialist thw original 128 players map are the best maps ever made in battlfield

I wouldn't die on that hill

wispy tinsel

i am a true combine arm players .. played BF2 planetside 1 and 2 MAG etc.. not waterdown 12vs12 rush bfbc only lollll

remote kiln
#

planet side 2 is ass for "'combined arms" sorry to break it to you dude

wispy tinsel

and i am far to think bf3 is a gold standard ... bf3 was the calloffdutyfication of bf franchise

go back to cod where you belong

11% more games lost. GG

actually?

vocal tusk

You lose more than you win. says a lot about a player

remote kiln

oh yeah 46%

pretty pitiful

vocal tusk

Only plays falck and sundance. But they "Are a combined arms player"

wispy tinsel

here comes the excuses

wispy tinsel

so your role is.. infantry.. and not combined arms

#

lol

wispy tinsel

#

They play vehicles, but they dont play engineer.

#

YT channel dont matter, I have a YT channel too lol

wispy tinsel
remote kiln
#

vehicle, would be a better categorisation

wispy tinsel
#

thats call having a brain

vocal tusk
#

As ive said before. Experience doesnt magically make your opinion correct

remote kiln

50% of his top kills are with the nightbird lol

don't know how you go 46% win rate and top vehicle being that

wispy tinsel

Doesnt really matter. Kills are kills

You lose more, you arent

You might be a better solo player 1v1...but you cant say you are a better team player when your stats show you lose 11% more than they do.

ah right yeah I'm sure

it wasn't me, heard it before

kinda funny in a way I barely even play

vocal tusk
#

Rookie numbers for objectives captured, defended and time on objectives too

remote kiln
#

stats don't matter, only the ones he likes

wispy tinsel
#

you cant control wins by yourself in 2042 128 players wich is what i played the most .. EA should have give us option to have 32 players lobby or at least 16 wich would have solved the problem ..

shy viper
#

framing "COD player" as a negative thing to do in Battlefield is a very telling thing

vocal tusk
#

We have had 64P CQ in rotation each week for the past 1.5 yrs

wispy tinsel
vocal tusk
#

wouldnt be too loud, you have a 19% worse win reccord than me haha

#

You sir, are the casual. Maybe you should go back to Planetside 2

wispy tinsel
#

in everygames i am.not in a vehicles 8 have the most objective capture most point most revive and most kill in 90% of games i play so yeah

vocal tusk
#

Yet you lose more games than you win

wispy tinsel
vocal tusk
#

I will...I play COD often. Thanks tho. How is this an insult?

because when you're 15/16 it sounds funny because (I) my opinion is correct

we called way on discord and asked him to come here to see you

#

you caught us

kindred flint

lmao so the west side of discarded isnt nearly as bad as the right side

#

in the final sector

#

still got the fuck out of that match when i hit the final ribbon though..

next onyx
#

I just woke up and trying to get ready for work dude I didn't predict this would happen haha

it's funny bsod cause I talk to you here maybe like once? a week lmao

I actually planned all this out last week. you just dont know it yet.

am I the only one getting a security violation error when launching the game that forces me to repair the game every time I want to play it ?

remote kiln

yeah we knew you were coming

ebon pilot
#

we're actually the fbi we caught you

amber kelp
#

oh lord he is typing a manifesto
or not

wispy tinsel
#

OG Manifest , Orbital , discarded were almost perfect in 128 players match with slight cover improovement it would have been perfect but they changed the whole thing to suit bad players

remote kiln
#

cool story

#

anyways

wispy tinsel

Orbital, manifest and breakawy are decent 128 maps. the rest are kinda average

I agree to a point, but I still enjoy that map. the far side of the hilltop objective has a very cool wooded area for firefights. Its a biome and playstyle not seen on any other map

next onyx

It's single digit fucking cold my ass is frozen over

remote kiln
#

you took the wrong way

next onyx
#

Oh by the way I got 3 hackusations in a single match.

Though I think one of them was a joke.

Not played enough Frontlines to form an opinion

green wing
#

i would queue for a gallipoli operations match, but the game would make me join a galicia conquest server

#

i hate it

wispy tinsel
#

conquest 128 is the only mode worth playing yet its abandoned more and more due to skills issues also dice ruined many maps with rework .. hourglass wasnt the best but rework is worst than the original

wary oak
# remote kiln

Uh the old "Australia Doesn't Exist" thing lol Well good keep believing that because we are stealthy XD

last willow
#

Conquest 128 is garbage and should be removed from next BF

amber kelp
last willow
#

But just my opinion

next onyx
#

Frontlines my beloved.

wispy tinsel
green wing
last willow
#

It's an opinion

amber kelp
last willow
#

It doesn't play well with how DICE designed it

calm bison
#

I think CQ 128 plays best on Orbital, Spearhead, and Breakaway

wary oak
# remote kiln

Obviously that was Photoshopped but yeah that makes us Aussies the superior country because we can't be seen XD

last willow
#

I can get AT LEAST 40 kills and less than 5 deaths EVERY match on 64 player or more but in 128 not really

wispy tinsel
vocal tusk
#

I dont mind hourglass...but it plays very weirdly compare to other maps. Its designed in a way that you are best suited to sticking to attacking/defending either the city side and D, or the desert/monument side and C

amber kelp
last willow
#

In 64p, I score on average 700+

#

Not in 128

#

That's called bad design

remote kiln
#

they say the first thing an OCE player does when installing a game is switch on their VPN to change regions because they have better luck finding somebody in the outback than in a game server

next onyx
#

Don't exactly need a vpn for all games.

wispy tinsel
remote kiln
#

so it's true

amber kelp
chilly jacinth
#

i perform the same on 64p and 128p

sometimes better depending on the day

last willow
wispy tinsel

#

But matchmaking is garbage

wary oak

Yeah arc. Both are just as easy for me but I'd rather have more maps than dice reattempt 128 as it takes a stupid amount of resources away.

next onyx
vocal tusk
#

I too tend to only practice in fake large battles. So im not prepared for it!!! /s

They didn't balance the game right for 128, would I plat it again? Yes, but fix the tick rate, etc

We saw a very slow rollout of live service maps in BFV partially because they spent a ton of time making Greece

Nor is the game kind to peoples hardware.

#

We waited so long for mercury.

last willow
#

I really hate that

amber kelp
#

I do hope BF6 is set in a single region or two so that more maps can release

last willow
#

There needs to be an algorithm in place where if a match is 60% finished and one side is winning quickly, it shouldn't try to put me in there

#

How many times have you been put in matches literally with SECONDS left?

#

TOO many

slender lance
#

Haha it’s rough

kindred flint
#

that will be for the next game

slender lance
#

Hopefully they understand that players don’t really work that well together πŸ˜‚

amber kelp
#

Teamwork is based on individual incentives (no, xp does not count) and ease of communication

last willow
#

Like BFV's squad points

amber kelp
#

also no

last willow
#

I think JackFrags had good suggestions in his latest "BF2042 is ended" video

#

honestly, everything he said he wishes for DICE to do next time was PERFECT

amber kelp
#

A points system is not enough. A better way to go about it is by creating weaknesses in each class that can only be overcome by working with teammates.

last willow
#

Like older BFs, who would have thought?

amber kelp
vocal tusk
#

Realistically. All 2042 had to do to suceed was to basically be a modern continuation of BF4. the game design and setup was all there, but it got messed up.

Class locked weapons needs to come back

amber kelp

I think that was GOLDEN

It did also have a small set that all classes could use but small set

amber kelp
#

all of them had class locked weapons until 2042.
Best system is 1 imo

Gadget freedom was a bit overwhelming, but being able to use a sniper while playing support and having the flexibility to run in like a mad man is great

#

would people hate the launch of 2042 or a working battle royale less? curious question

pine roost
#

Yeah I get that, path of least resistance and all, it only really works properly for the players who can feel free to do what they want and don’t just succumb to the temptation of playing meta

remote kiln
#

if it worked and we saw the reaction, I'd like to see what the convo would be

vocal tusk
pine roost
#

Well if a br did launch as a mainline title I’d just not play it

amber kelp
remote kiln
#

no conquest, rush, etc

#

a purely BR driven 2042

pine roost
#

Yeah I wouldn’t play it

vocal tusk
#

It depends TBH. If DICE released a game that was as fun of a sandbox as CODs DMZ...but with destruction...I would 100% play that

remote kiln
#

that's why I think it's interesting

amber kelp
ebon pilot
#

A casual extraction shooter like HZ would be interesting

remote kiln
#

at the very least it would be a mammoth split of opinion, but how it would develop after is what would fascinate me

ebon pilot
#

All the existing extraction shooters are hardcore shit

pine roost
#

The only br that ever felt fun for me was hyperscape, everything else just doesn’t hit it

vocal tusk
#

Thats one of the most annoying things to me. COD are building better, bigger sandboxes than DICE are these days. Those roles used to be significantly reversed.

#

I just dislike the gameplay/sweatiness of COD.

chilly jacinth
#

theyre only invested in BR now though

#

not much of a sandbox

ebon pilot
pine roost
#

Was good

vocal tusk
#

BR is still a sandbox. the maps they have built in the last while are very impressive...gameplay things aside

remote kiln
#

I'd have been interested to see at least an experiment on it, hourglass, the old version, is very clearly the defacto map for any type of BR mode

slender lance
#

Battlefield but with aliens and predators πŸ˜‚

#

And marines

#

Would be money

remote kiln
#

that map was designed and built around it with where everything was

pine roost
#

I still have trouble believing the idea

#

Like, it just seems so silly to think that they might have considered releasing a mainline title as a pure br

remote kiln
#

it is.. but we all thought that about wz too, for a time

ebon pilot
#

I don't think about COD

vocal tusk
#

WZ was pretty great when it first came out tho.

#

Literally everyone was playing it

pine roost
#

Like, thinking that cod 2019 was just made for the br?

remote kiln
#

or conceiving it at all rather

#

cod, the multiplayer shooter, making a battle royale, wind back to 2019 and people were saying it was a Fortnite ripoff

#

now, it's the most important part of the game, ironically

junior galleon
#

tbf, cod had already made a battle royale, blackout in bo4

remote kiln
#

BO didn't hit critical acclaim though

pine roost
remote kiln
#

it didn't, till mw 2019

vocal tusk
#

Its a shame tho, cos BF got Firestorm, which had a lot of potential...and the lessons learned from that gave us...Hazard Zone.

pine roost
#

Sure brs can become the key selling point, doesn’t stop the fact that I’d never play it still

remote kiln
#

DICEs biggest mistake with it was leaving someone else to maintain the mode

remote kiln
#

he's not talking about firestorm the map

vocal tusk
#

Its not, but it uses a lot of the gameplay loop of a BR

ebon pilot
#

How so?

junior galleon
#

if dice makes the next battlefield br focused thats gonna suck

remote kiln
#

ring, find loot on the ground, last to survive, pretty similar in all but name

vocal tusk
#

Well last to survive isnt true, but the rest is.

mental delta
#

But there could be BR indeed

ebon pilot
#

But there isn't a ring????

#

There isn't loot????

vocal tusk
#

There is, its just not physical

ivory canopy
#

I'd much prefer there not be a BR at all.

next onyx
#

Wait what are you thinking.

junior galleon
next onyx
#

There was definitely loot in fire storm.

vocal tusk
#

You are still forced into an area, designated by the satelites.

remote kiln
#

^

ivory canopy
#

All the effort into HZ for a mode that was DOA

ebon pilot
#

Did everyone forget how Hazard Zone works??

amber kelp
remote kiln
#

not HZ

next onyx
#

Oh my bad.

remote kiln
#

this is firestorm

next onyx
#

Yeah I'm confused as fuck.

remote kiln
#

pizza is thinking about hazard zone but he's talking about firestorm

ebon pilot
#

I was saying Hazard Zone is not a BR

#

I've never played firestorm

remote kiln
#

bsod was saying the lessons of firestorm was what we got in HZ

#

which he's roughly right in

vocal tusk
#

Its not, but it uses a lot of ta BRs gameplay loop. the main difference is kils are required, and you can extract.

#

But its not really the point im making either

junior galleon
vocal tusk
#

Im saying that even based on trends..its REALLY weird that we somehow arrived at whatever HZ is...based on the lessons learned from Firestorm

remote kiln
#

left to the same fate as firestorm, ironically

vocal tusk
#

At least it was abandoned relatively fast. The work required to fix that mode would have been a lot.

remote kiln
#

practically speaking tbh battlefield as a franchise it's impossible not to try and make a BR that succeeds at a minimum

#

big maps open warfare lend to it naturally

mental delta
pine roost
#

The way I see it, given that, a br is just the regular game but less

junior galleon
#

sure it has (not big enough) maps and vehicles and thats about where the similarities end

remote kiln
#

key difference

obtuse quiver
#

Hot take, a battle royale game is literally just lms or last team standing in a big open map with some scavenging to keep it interesting. Kind of like Scavengers. Way I see it, is HZ is basically a BR where 2 teams can win πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

remote kiln
#

you have any sort of game which has massive battles or tons of players there is naturally an inclination to want to try and model it to gamemodes which succeeded elsewhere, is impossible not to at least consider

#

doing it well? very different thing

remote kiln
#

it's tarkov.. but moulded to try and be a battlefield mode

#

why it doesn't work

ebon pilot
#

Tarkov and other similar titles are not considered BRs, but a separate genre

obtuse quiver
#

My bad

remote kiln
#

the nomenclatures of it is kinda arbitrary tbh

#

the attributes are similar

ebon pilot
#

in very broad strokes

obtuse quiver
#

Basically instead of LMS, got to get to a point marked to win, it's the main difference I see separating them now I think of it more πŸ˜…

remote kiln
#

the only reason people don't consider tarkov to be a br is because the gameplay loop does not revolve around being the last to survive, but if you strip that away it is very similar to one

#

even once you consider, the systems behind it

ebon pilot
#

if you strip it all away it's a survival shooter game

vocal tusk
#

IMO, Tarkov is closer to a sandbox like arma...than a BR

ebon pilot
#

when you contextualize it with larger goals it becomes a distinct genre

vocal tusk
#

Its just a more condensed game

pine roost
#

Kinda hard to categorise it compared to others

remote kiln
#

I don't know if I'd put tarkov in the same classification as the division

#

I don't think so

pine roost
#

Like, if anything, it’s somewhat of a rougelike but the enemy density is lower relative to most

next onyx
#

The division is more like destiny I would say.

pine roost
#

Definitely

#

Although dark zone is a little bit closer

ebon pilot
#

yeah dark zone sounds like an extraction gamemode based on what im reading

pine roost
#

Was close in concept

I won EVERY Frontline match last night.

Though I feel like its not much of a accomplishment. I was the only person hitting like 50+ kills per match. Most kills I saw was 50 on a Redacted that lasted for more than 15 minutes

kindred flint
#

29-57...holy shit what is that dude doing

fresh lintel
#

Alot of people go like 10-30 or 27-60 on last gen

ebon pilot
#

I'm not sure but it feels like the game stops tracking kills at a certain point? Like I got that 150 kill game using the AK 5C but my mastery level only went up like 2

#

Should've been 5

kindred flint
#

it probably assumed you were getting kills so easily with it, you were in a bot portal lobby

ivory canopy
#

I've been robbed of mastery tiers also

#

It's when I get a kill count with a gun exactly divisible by 30

#

Sometimes it'll say something like Mastery 20.30

#

But it docks me 30 kills

#

Because it assumes that it's actually 20.00

#

Happened to me while I was doing a T1 on the LCMG

#

and it pissed me off because I hated using that gun.

Any updates on the upcoming battlefield game?

next onyx
#

It's so good.

vocal tusk
#

Something I'm wondering about, is are players who complain about the new visual recoil playing at a much lower fov.

I reinstalled the game and my fov was 55...and it really does feel terrible at that setting. Borderline unusable.

#

The higher the fov the less it's a problem.

ivory canopy
#

55 fov is a joke

vocal tusk
#

I know, but it's the games default

#

Try it out if anyone gets a chance. The visual recoil legit feels awful at a lower fov.

acoustic seal
#

it feels awful all the time but probably worse at lower fov yeah

Yo

#

Before we get the last update for the game

#

Can we remove the damage falloff for the M44 because currently it gets outclassed in all areas by the deagle and Rex

ebon pilot
#

The M44 hits longer range one shot headshots than the deagle

jagged wyvern
#

If it had an infinite range 1 tap headshot, but with the bullet velocity of a pistol like it has, it would server the niche of a pocket sniper

#

Pocket sniper πŸ—£οΈ

I think season 6 was decent I got pretty far in the battle pass but that’s about it

I think they might as well make the previous battle passes available again to give us something to do

at least 1.5 more years and basically nothing to do otherwise in this game

As usual, Discarded is the worst map to play any mode on

It’s because all the maps had trench networks and shit so you wouldn’t get shredded trying to get to the next point

It's either a background software that's causing it or you have a Macro that is bound to a simular button which is making your gun shoot by itself.
