battlefield-2042

[chrome hazel]

What FPS you guys running the game on?

[ruby citrus]

60 for me, since I got a 60hz monitor

[chilly jacinth]

above 200

[remote kiln]

my frame cap, 165, excl 128 servers

[chrome hazel]

Console?

[ruby citrus]

pc

[chrome hazel]

Ah

[chrome hazel]

What GPU lmao

[patent pivot]

Minimum is 80. Average is like 110

[ruby citrus]

monitor is just like 8 years old lmao

[patent pivot]

Medium settings

[chilly jacinth]

7900xtx

[chrome hazel]

O

[tawny carbon]

I’m around 130fps at 240hz on pc

[chrome hazel]

I shoulda got something nicer 🥴

[tawny carbon]

All low settings at 1440p

[patent pivot]

Imagine wasting money on high hz

[chrome hazel]

That’s pretty solid

[tawny carbon]

1440p res hurts fps compared to 1080p

I’m also on a 3080

[chrome hazel]

I’m on a 3070ti

[tawny carbon]

Makes the game feels way more smoother than 120 or 60 hz

[patent pivot]

Let me check....

[chrome hazel]

165 is the sweet spot for me

[naive quiver]

240hz is my favourite

[patent pivot]

You're claiming even if the fps doesn't meet the monitor HZ, the experience will still be excellent?

[tawny carbon]

240 down to 60hz feels awful asf

[pine roost]

240 is basically just for csgo and bf4

[patent pivot]

I'm curious

[tawny carbon]

Atleast for me ye

[remote kiln]

he doesnt mean for gaming

which in that case yes

[patent pivot]

Like say if I don't meet above 144 fps, I can still have relative experience with 75hz smooth?

[cursive pawn]

just wondering should i do this for like every game i play?

i play helldivers 2

i get lke 48 fps in the game

[naive quiver]

60hz to 75hz

And different

[vocal tusk]

Probably no need for other games. Unless you start running into similar issues

[cursive pawn]

ah ok

[chilly jacinth]

doesnt hurt to try

see what happens

[cursive pawn]

yuh

FOR SUPER EARTH!

[remote kiln]

just be aware you will experience hitching in high playercount situations

[tawny carbon]

I mean it helps it smooth it out abit more. Just try it out. It’s all personal preference tbh

Anything that is 120hz and above is great for gaming. My personally don’t like anything below 120hz it feels choppy.

Even if it’s 60fps Vsync on at 60hz. Me don’t like

[chrome hazel]

Lmao

[naive quiver]

that’s why mobile phone no needs above 120hz

[tawny carbon]

I got so used to higher hz. Makes low hz feels awful

[chrome hazel]

165>

[tawny carbon]

My phone is 120hz

[remote kiln]

phones use variable refresh rates, they are not static

[naive quiver]

We’re expecting 8K 144hz in next 5 years times

https://tenor.com/view/broke-wallet-i-am-broke-no-money-no-cash-gif-24120042

[tawny carbon]

6090 might do that

[chrome hazel]

Costs like 5k😂

[tawny carbon]

Blame it on the Inflation

[chrome hazel]

It’s realistically going to be 3k+

[naive quiver]

Don’t blame on the inflation, it’s all about wallet issue

[hybrid lake]

I have a Ryzen 5 7600. What do you reckon I should set my Process Lasso to? It sometimes maxes out on cod and bf causing my game to stutter/lose half my frames

[tawny carbon]

Blame the job for not paying you more

[vocal tusk]

No need to do anything on that CPU, it wont have the issue the other guy was having

[chrome hazel]

😂

Need more moneys

[patent pivot]

Me with 5 3600

[naive quiver]

I blame on the taxes not reduced enough

[chrome hazel]

Get paid more get taxed more

[patent pivot]

Come to Montana: no sale tax

[remote kiln]

this is what you need

[hybrid lake]

okay so what's causing the performance issues then. Settings are already optimized and not too high

[kindred flint]

So your tax money can be wasted even harder

[hybrid lake]

AMD GPU

[chrome hazel]

Too cold sometimes tbh

[remote kiln]

turn off anti lag if its on for RDNA, it doesnt work correctly, your alternative options are chill

[patent pivot]

Only in winter and

[kindred flint]

nice try we all know that state is more desolate than hourglass is between the capture zones

[chrome hazel]

😂😂

[chrome hazel]

Well yeah I’d hope it’s only cold in the winter 💀

Then again Montana can get snow in June 😶

[hybrid lake]

anti lag is on will try that

[vocal tusk]

A variety of things can affect performance on AMD Ryzen CPUs tho...like only having single channel memory....FCLK not set properly, EXPO timings not set...ETC.

Or having UCLK set to half rate in memory subtimings

[remote kiln]

keep it off for modern titles radeons anti lag isnt designed to work correctly with them, anti lag+ isnt (re) launched yet either, set a frame cap, otherwise everything else in the radeon driver config should be switched off

not much else you can do other than that

[hybrid lake]

noted

[naive quiver]

Income tax ?

[patent pivot]

Sale tax Francis

[chrome hazel]

Always

[patent pivot]

Sale tax

[chrome hazel]

Sales tax is 0%?

[patent pivot]

Ya

[chrome hazel]

Isn’t that why all the million billionaires register their cars there and use it as a tax write off?

Something along the lines of barely any tax

[naive quiver]

London moment

[vocal tusk]

If you use it for business needs (Transport) of course you can mark a vehicle as a tax write off

[chrome hazel]

Ah yes the Bugatti for business transport 💀

[vocal tusk]

there are limits of course...but the vehicle shouldnt really matter. Same way I can expense part of my house mortgage payments as a business expense, as I work from home

[chrome hazel]

I see

[tawny carbon]

True

But if you don’t pay more taxes. Means you get less money on your tax returns

[fiery shoal]

no sales tax where i live ftw

[spare pasture]

I just 100%d 2042

[tawny carbon]

You S999 with everything T1

[spare pasture]

Well in achievements

[tawny carbon]

O

[spare pasture]

Escape artist 😎done

Never would again

18h of hz

[naive quiver]

Why are you still working so hard for achievements it’s about to end

[stone cradle]

This is why I'll never 100% this game

[kindred flint]

Completionists are a strange people

[stone cradle]

Respect for you going through the torture that's HZ

[violet badger]

I am nearly tier 40, did all my missions (except 2 weekly bonus missions) and we are nearly halfway this season... how am I supposed to complete this battlepass?
Will we be able to gain more battlepass points later in the season for our missions?

[spare pasture]

I started working hard when I realized I had 500+ hours on the game

[spare pasture]

Weeklies and daily match xp

[kindred flint]

How many games do you play?

Finishing the missions and doing mildly ok should be fine

[violet badger]

that's crazy

you have to play this game every day to get tier 100

and a lot

[spare pasture]

60-80 iguess

[kindred flint]

I can stop playing like halfway through a season because I've hit 100

And I don't grind

[spare pasture]

Yes

[violet badger]

howwwww

i did all my missions already

i swear they took away some tiers of my progression 😆

[spare pasture]

You’ll get more

[kindred flint]

Do you literally get no score during a game?

[spare pasture]

We’re only half way through

[violet badger]

yeah but i'm not halfway

you don't get more points for quests that are released later?

i thought you did but I could be wrong

I remember it not being consistent once

[spare pasture]

Well better go on redacted on a 2x xp weekend and start reviving and flipping patties

[violet badger]

?

[spare pasture]

The later weeks are the same amount

[violet badger]

oh okay, thank you

have a good day

[spare pasture]

Can’t

[violet badger]

why

[spare pasture]

Grinded hz all afternoon

[violet badger]

you can finish your day in a good fashion

so have a good rest of your day

[royal swan]

Watch a few videos on the map from the YouTubers. And it looks like this map will be dogshit

On conquest

C or D tier map

Also

[spare pasture]

The map seemed ok imo

No aug is bad

[vocal tusk]

Hard to know how the map is TBH. All I could see from gameplay was a bunch of sweats running shotguns, SMGs and smoke nades trying to get clips lol

[pine roost]

They are never really going to supplement actually playing it yourself

[vocal tusk]

Whole first game I watched one team capped A and B...then th other team just didnt bother trying to re-cap them lol

Classic!

And HEAVILY lost cos they just left the other team with 2 uncontested flags

[spare pasture]

No one plays the left side😭

[vocal tusk]

Cos they are dumb lol

More interested in clips and highlights over winning/helping the team

[pine roost]

Well that’s to be expected if it’s a content stream

[vocal tusk]

Fair enough for such an event tho, they are all streamers/content creators. Im just saying its terrible for actual map impressions

[tawny carbon]

Tbh, you don’t know till YOU experience it. Watching a video and reading reviews on it don’t mean anything tbh. Just something to think of, till YOU actually played it to have a review on it personally

[pine roost]

Goes for anything really

[tawny carbon]

The map seems nice but when it goes live. We will all have our own opinions on it because we all will play it at some point in time

[tawny carbon]

Very true. But you will be surprised when someone reads a review or see gameplay of something and think it’s bad. I love 2042 as a whole. Not my top fav but I always enjoyed playing it since day 1. I have my own opinion on it.

Same as you have your own opinion.

We will know how the stadium revamped map will play out when it goes live

[spare pasture]

When hazard zone launched I thought it was terrible and underbaked and basic from the reviews but after playing it

I think it’s still terrible

[ebon pilot]

nobody could've seen that twist coming

[tawny carbon]

I enjoyed playing HZ. But I’m just a MP guy. SP is my least worried on any game, especially for games that mainly supports MP side of it. Like cod and battlefield games.

[ebon pilot]

i kinda do wish there was more competition in the extraction shooter space that wasn't entirely milsim tac shooters

[spare pasture]

Fortnite is a pretty good extraction shooter

You just have to kill everyone else

[ebon pilot]

https://tenor.com/view/hawkeye-trapper-straight-face-bored-no-emotion-gif-4431814

[acoustic seal]

i was very mildly interested in whatever bungie's doing with marathon's corpse, until it was leaked that they're moving to a hero shooter model

[spare pasture]

What is marathon even supposed to be

[pine roost]

Some kind of no man’s sky infinite universe extraction shooter thing

The new one that is

[spare pasture]

The old one

[ebon pilot]

1994 Marathon is basically just Halo before Halo

Afaik

[acoustic seal]

doom clone for mac with a pretty solid story about shipboard AI gaining sentience and going insane

[spare pasture]

Sounds like a dune prequel

[pine roost]

Or system shock

[acoustic seal]

you can play it for free on windows these days https://alephone.lhowon.org/

i think they're working on a steam release

[spare quest]

nice virus

[pine roost]

goodness that reminds me that system shock is another franchise getting a form of remaster

there's a gazillion going on at the moment

[spare pasture]

Would’ve been cool if they implemented lights that turn off in redacted and stadium

[spare pasture]

It’s funny how the exodus short film established the world and tone of 2042 so well for the game to throw in the trash

[lilac dust]

Once again they're doing a streamer showcase of a map and it's filled with bots 🤣 Why would they even waste money getting all these streamers to play when they're ending support. Doesn't help that it's just a miniature version of stadium now lol

[chilly jacinth]

theyre doing a big sale

so its perfect timing

[lilac dust]

Bahahaha kinggothalion loaded into a match and there's literally nobody on the enemy team

[chilly jacinth]

pretty sure theyre on a separate build

with only other CCs

[lilac dust]

I know, and that's the issue

This happened last time with season 7 launch

[royal swan]

So disappointed that the stadium map doesn't have breakthrough yet

They are still working on it

[lilac dust]

Probably because the map is barely the size of a TDM map

Could've been a great breakthrough map if they kept the whole half of the stadium playable

[acoustic seal]

man, i sure hope all the "HOW DO YOU KNOW ITS SHIT YOU HAVENT PLAYED IT YET" people speak up when it releases and it's fucking awful to play

[vocal tusk]

How is this an illogical stance to take on a map we havent played?

[acoustic seal]

because we have map overviews and some of us can use at least 10% of our brains

[vocal tusk]

Ah yes...cos you can tell a map is bad from an overview

[acoustic seal]

75% of it is a coverless sandy bowl that you can snipe from both spawns, what the fuck are you talking about

[chilly jacinth]

people were saying Haven was good from the previews

turns out it wasnt

[vocal tusk]

Clearly didnt watch a single stream...because you cant do that

Also clearly never played the OG map...cos you ALSO could not do that there

[acoustic seal]

oh the hand picked preview streamers arent doing it, damn i guess i was completely wrong

[royal swan]

It wasn't fantastic when it was in the game before

The open area when it was the first sector of breakthrough wasn't really good

Way to open

Now it's objective A

[vocal tusk]

You can see from here at this timestamp that you cant just snipe down into A from either spawn.

https://www.youtube.com/live/tepsXnGcNew?si=by-IJ0hJyIETOS6y&t=2173

[royal swan]

They didn't change that area to a point of being impactful except add a truck and some cement walls

[vocal tusk]

Did we watch the same map?

😆

[royal swan]

I watched the objective A alot

[vocal tusk]

Cos there is a shit load of cover on that point now

[royal swan]

The 75% of the map

I can see the enemy spawn from spawn

Also very easy to rush spawn in the stadium

[quaint vector]

Just finished playing Stadium... God how godly meatgrinder that is..

[royal swan]

Claymores would be helpful on holding flanks

Mackey will be busted on this map like always

Paik will be busted

It's a worse redacted

[acoustic seal]

here i drew a diagram for you https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/491715495905591306/1234601574756782200/2024-04-29_15-23.png?ex=663153d1&is=66300251&hm=982818babce7f25245bfa5f7c7b1e15785a8cd99e5905f5b2bc58728ecb6bc9f

[vocal tusk]

No thanks

[chilly jacinth]

Mackay was aids to play against in OG stadium

[royal swan]

And he will be aids still

Every map he is aids

[vocal tusk]

Like wow...imagine being able to see part of one of your gimme flags from spawn!!!

🤯

[acoustic seal]

"gimme flag" you're so funny dude

[vocal tusk]

Yes, there are 3 potentials on either side.

A, B and E or A, B and C. Depending on where you spawn. Not a conventional gimme flag, but there nontheless

[ebon pilot]

just crouch bro

[karmic axle]

Any reason I can't open the game?

[vocal tusk]

Without context, no clue

[strange nymph]

anyone wanna squad up

No problem.

[karmic axle]

I press the play button on steam

and after a few seconds it goes from the blue stop button back to the green play button.

No errors no nothing.

[naive quiver]

Repair the game

[kindred flint]

is this some special early access pass you had? or is it actually live now? i swear im far too lazy to look this information up myself

[quaint vector]

We had Early Access Livestream Event today

[kindred flint]

so there was like a if your bucket s level was high enough you got invited? i see i see

[quaint vector]

I'm part of the EA Creator Network

[kindred flint]

you shill...i cant take your infos seriously anymore

meatgrinder like... between C and B on redacted or....worse?

[quaint vector]

This was a bit more intense than Redacted... 👀

[kindred flint]

how is this possible

[quaint vector]

Also, there are waaaay more ways to flank, so you have to turn around a lot

[kindred flint]

redacted was an underground rectangle with no room to move

[kindred flint]

so the shipment/shoothouse syndrome

[quaint vector]

There's tight space in the Stadium as well, but... There's plantly of cover 👌

[kindred flint]

can you get to the roof anymore or did they hopefully lock that off from mackay bastards

[quaint vector]

Another but... If no Irish players, you'll get granade spammed

[quaint vector]

No, there's red zone (out of bounds)

[kindred flint]

well thats a positive

[quaint vector]

You can't even make it to any flank from the roof as the roof is huge

Which is good

[kindred flint]

less chance of worthless snipers sitting in narnia taking shots at your side

[quaint vector]

There's like no space to snipe... Only outside of the Stadium but you'll get eliminated in no time..

[kindred flint]

so much good news!

[vocal tusk]

The range isnt long enough for you to be effective with a sniper IMO...and if you go to the bridge, or further back on the dunes...it looks like there no cover and youll just get gunned down by an AR in 20 seconds.

[quaint vector]

Yeah

[kindred flint]

The range isnt long enough for you to be effective with a sniper IMO
I mean to be fair....being effective isnt on the list of things to do for most snipers i see in matches

[quaint vector]

I see, I seee

[vocal tusk]

True, but even in the role of the combat recon...the map seems so fast that youll spot someone, and before another on your team can engage, or you get shots away...they will be gone haha

[kindred flint]

lol when i was farming people with the m240 yesterday, using rao... i had to of hacked this poor caspers drone like 10 times easy

he just didnt get the hint

[vocal tusk]

So how long before smoke carry capacity is reduced from 2 to 1 due to feedback from this map 😛

[kindred flint]

if they didnt nerf it from the amount i threw on redacted i think we are safe

[vocal tusk]

Most of the redacted spam when player numbers were high...werent affected by smoke. It wasnt until 2 patches ago that APS stopped intercepting smokes

[quaint vector]

I'm again in the JackFrags video

[kindred flint]

did they not even do anything on that side of the stadium?

the sand part looks the same, and the seats look unchanged as well

[vocal tusk]

the dunes are different on the internal part, and the crane is destroyed. The duns on the outside are also different.

[quaint vector]

Also at the end of the Jacks video...

[kindred flint]

you sweat

[vocal tusk]

There used to be a big sand dune to the left of whats shown in the image above, its no longer there (As it would be an advantage to the team on that side)

[kindred flint]

oh ok so they smoothed it out

[vocal tusk]

In looking at the gameplay footage...the inside does look a bit TOO chaotic for my liking. Will have to wait to see tomorrow.

I still kinda wish that instead of having the D flag in the middle, they placed it at the base of where the crane used to be...like a refugee camp or something, then place a big sand dune between it and the stands

Or even keep the 3 flags inside, and place this out here to at least make the flow of the map a bit better, and not as skewed towards always needing to be inside.

Probably hard to do given the locations geometry and shape. Any point placed here would be open to fire from any area in the stadium stands.

[chrome hazel]

gonna be terrible sinc etheres no cover

[chrome hazel]

also gonna be mad camping in the stands

[next onyx]

Zain with armour jfc.

[acoustic seal]

yeah thats me sorry

i decided that i couldnt beat the cringe so i should join it

[acoustic seal]

did you know the blanket shotgun hipfire nerfs didn't touch the masterkey at all? and it has similar damage output to a 880 but semi-auto?

[chrome hazel]

nice

[ebon pilot]

the masterkey has consistently been the best shotgun in the game for at least 2 years

[kindred flint]

even though it should be weak af?

[ebon pilot]

it feels like it should sit in the same niche as the super 500 but it blows it out of the water

[acoustic seal]

what's the niche of the super 500? being a pocket 880?

all of the shotguns hilariously overperform in this game

[chrome hazel]

wish we had as many shotguns as bf4 tbh

a m1014 would go hard with slug

[ebon pilot]

a pocket 880 with the spread of a short barrel 12M

with 3 shots

[kindred flint]

the barrel on the masterkey has to be shorter than the super 500

[acoustic seal]

spread? 12m doesn't have spread

[ebon pilot]

?

[acoustic seal]

shotguns in this game are by default tighter than the bf1 model 10, the previous most broken shotgun of all time

[ebon pilot]

this is basically the spread of the super 500

meanwhile the 880

and the masterkey

[woven sonnet]

balanced BABY

[royal swan]

Well that depends on the ammo type

You're using the tightest one

[ebon pilot]

SSHHHHHHHUSH

[royal swan]

And that ain't the super 500

That's the auto

You a rat for using the auto

[ebon pilot]

this is basically the spread of the super 500

i didn't even kill anyone with that spray it's so bad

i switched to my pistol and killed 4 people immediately

[royal swan]

R A T

[ebon pilot]

i think i switched off after that because it's so bad

[royal swan]

But you started to use it. So you intentionally were hoping to rat

[ebon pilot]

i was experimenting

[woven sonnet]

i love mcs

it gets me going

[royal swan]

Experimenting with a gun that was in the game since launch.

[ebon pilot]

yeah it was the last shotgun I got T1 for

i rarely used it

it's BAD

[woven sonnet]

yea i dont use shotguns not worth the t1

[royal swan]

[ebon pilot]

B A D

[woven sonnet]

the only gun in the game realistically is the pp

other guns arent real

[ebon pilot]

i already got all the 2042 guns to T1

well except the scorpion

[woven sonnet]

I have 1

[ebon pilot]

and pistols

[woven sonnet]

and its the pp

[ebon pilot]

pp good

[royal swan]

The only shotgun I have t1 was the mcs880 on redacted

[ebon pilot]

i got the 880 to T1 before they started buffing the shit out of it

i was very depressed

[royal swan]

You used the 880 before the buff? Bro thanks for your mental sacrifice

[ebon pilot]

i think i got to T1 during S3?

[royal swan]

The 880 was THE worse gun in the game before the buff

[ebon pilot]

it was still really funny though

[royal swan]

The slugs are still shit

Honestly I don't get why slugs are still a thing in the gun

Completely useless in 2042

Either you make it one shot to the body or head or you remove it

[ebon pilot]

slugs are funny for sniping people at medium range

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/850376380822323230/1102296347090112603/slugs.mp4?ex=66313478&is=662fe2f8&hm=c8ef8ed1deafbec7f8c99870af3b2ef3fc94c0ad7b39d616f4b36865527681fa&

[robust vapor]

Sniped someone with the slug round in the head with the NVK shotgun before

[slate meadow]

The buck shot is terrible aswell though

I shot a guy twice in the back with buck shot and it didn't kill him

Like two shots from buckshot you wouldn't have a spine left

[lilac dust]

Yeah but that would make too much sense

DICE aren't in the business of making sense

[reef cliff]

12m auto was nerfed to the ground before I can unlock the short barrel smh.

[next onyx]

Wasn't really nerfed into the ground.

It kills super fast.

[lilac dust]

Dice's reasoning for not making the entire half of the stadium playable is so dumb. You literally have an entire sand dune in the middle of the stadium that has out of bounds that you can walk around in. Why the hell did they cut off 50% of the interior

[next onyx]

Game being EoL and the amount of work they could actually do made sense as more and more devs are being shifted to the next game.

[lilac dust]

But like. The map was never gonna be balanced, it's a meat grinder map, just plop stadium back in our hands without this silly out of bounds shit

It was more work to add the out of bounds stuff

[next onyx]

No matter what people are going to complain when a particular map gets added.

[lilac dust]

I was ready to play the shit out of stadium if it was just copy and pasted back into the game as it's own map with maybe some extra cover if they felt like it. All this effort to drastically change the map when it's the very last map is pointless. It's a fan favourite, why change it.

[ebon pilot]

drastically change
did people play og stadium?

[tawny carbon]

OG stadium is meh.

I did like the revamped version more

[lilac dust]

Tell me more

[lilac dust]

Who's gameplay is this?

[robust vapor]

Dedzigs

[lilac dust]

I was about to say, I thought you got invited lol

[robust vapor]

I'll be damn happy to get invited so I can meme on people throw in the towel

[next onyx]

Poor ghost LOL.

[robust vapor]

Poor ghost indeed

inb4 vid gets featured

each stab represents a disrespect

man received 3 disrespects at once

💀

[lilac dust]

Disrespected by DICE, then disrespected by KNIFE.

[next onyx]

Yet he was in a private event. Right.

I'd love to be in the eu and to play with those guys.

[lilac dust]

Look, sometimes to make poetry you have to bend the rules a bit. I don't know how he got invited after getting kicked but that's dope tbh that they made up I guess

[robust vapor]

If you see me in EU expect a noob tube

[next onyx]

If you see me expect m16 slaughter LMAO

Or the scar.

Knowing you you'll probably try to hit me with rockets.

[robust vapor]

M16 pog

I'll use your weapon against you

[next onyx]

M16 is really good.

You should really give it a go.

[robust vapor]

the best vault ar ngl

i tried it

[next onyx]

Hey ded!

[robust vapor]

would rekt people better than 2042 ars

surprisingly

[next onyx]

Its biggest weakness is its reload speed and spread ratio to be honest.

Could argue its medium ish damage too.

[robust vapor]

[next onyx]

I'll kill for the black knight skin.

The dice skin.

[next onyx]

Try tac comp with laser sight primarily dok.

It rips.

It actually rips.

[robust vapor]

Oh yeah I switch to that for med-far range

but for CQB I put on the silencer

[tawny carbon]

I meant to say like the revamped version more. My b

[lilac dust]

Wait what did you say before that

[tawny carbon]

I did the revamped version

I edited it

[lilac dust]

Oh. I read it as you dig the revamped version

But as I was saying, please tell me more. As in what makes you like the revamped version more?

[next onyx]

Fun fact. Tac comp assists in hipfire too.

More round hip fire expansion.

[robust vapor]

true i tested it

shit is strong in hipfire

[tawny carbon]

More ways to get in and more cover. OG was ass to me.

On the OG. It’s To open, you camp down a hall way on the floor and no one can ever get you tbh

Plus the lighting was ass on the OG

[lilac dust]

I mean when I say I want OG stadium back it kinda goes without saying that it would automatically get additional cover, but I just wish they put the effort into utilizing the whole half of the stadium, but maybe the camping issue you're talking about would be impossible to prevent if they did that, I honestly didn't play it enough to remember that being a problem. Just sucks to have such a small section of such a unique asset of the game

[tawny carbon]

Yea but. It prob won’t be ideal for balance between outside and the stadium. Also won’t be linear enough

[lilac dust]

I mean I was shocked that they made the outside area so large with the A flag. Would've been plenty of space to just focus on the entire half of the stadium, add a bunch of cover and then they could have used the centre of the stadium where the big sand dune is they could have put some base of defense there as a flag instead of the weird A flag far out of the stadium

[tawny carbon]

If they open the rest of the stadium up, the roof will be an issue, the middle also unless they add more assets to it. At the same time, adding assets to the middle won’t be ideal since it’s flooded with sand from the sandstorm. If talking about the climate change of the map.

[lilac dust]

Surely they can just make the roof out of bounds tho

The highway is out of bounds

[tawny carbon]

Mmm 🤔 I doubt that will work.

The entrance of the revamped stadium that outside area. The whole left side won’t get much attention from both sides if the whole stadium opened up

[lilac dust]

Apex has varying out of bounds timers. If you go out of bounds in a not so crazy spot then you'll get a very generous timer, but if you go to a ridiculous out of bounds spot that would be easy to exploit then the out of bounds timer is VERY strict.

Just do that for the roof

Have a super strict timer so people can't sit there for 10 seconds

[tawny carbon]

10 seconds is a long time…

[lilac dust]

That's exactly what I'm saying

10 seconds is the current timer

As I said apex has varying timers like 5 seconds, 3 seconds

[tawny carbon]

It be better if they add a invis wall blocking players from going up there

That also means the skybox of the middle of the stadium won’t be as tall maybe 🤔

[lilac dust]

Ok so invisible wall then

[tawny carbon]

Unless the invis the wall around the circle of the roof

Either way the stadium will get way more attention compared to the outside areas

So what’s the point of going outside of the stadium area as a whole

It’s a weird map balancing issue tbh

Also got to taken in the spawns

[lilac dust]

I say fuck it and just let me in DICE headquarters. I'll just remove all the sand for them and give ya'll a full stadium

[tawny carbon]

Good luck with the spawn traps

[tawny carbon]

Then it won’t be the stadium true identity anymore unless the stadium is located somewhere else

[lilac dust]

You edited your comment so nevermind I'll edit mine too

[tawny carbon]

It will ruin the OG identity of it

The stadium Climate Change is the sand coverage

Shit happens when your in the desert 🏜️

[kindred flint]

like record flooding ruining all those expensive cars?

[vital quail]

Called in a tank and before I landed I was lagging really bad and it crashed already destroyed ???? There weren't any friendly heli/planes and I didn't hear any enemy ones that it could've hit

Looking back at the recording maybe it was a light pole that caused it somehow?? Lame af

[chrome hazel]

overall thoughts on the breakthrough mode?

[patent pivot]

wat

[heady bolt]

Hello guys, may I ask if EA is down?

[pearl ridge]

I hope they do away with vehicle call-ins for anything bigger than a jeep in the next game

Seriously getting tired of having people dropping (and wasting) entire tanks on rooftops

Not to mention the absurdity of air-dropping a 60 ton armoured vehicle

[patent pivot]

Dropping cruise missile and gunship on small combat arena >>

[fiery solar]

when is the map releasing

like what time

[stone cradle]

Hasn't that been disabled?

[spare quest]

Should be in like 5 hours

[stone cradle]

So no more vault weapons

[next onyx]

No AUG or G3a3. :/

[stone cradle]

I guess once again, their vision is 'complete'

[next onyx]

They surely had much more planned but you know.

[pliant gulch]

You ever fix your game?

Having the same issue where the splash screen will load up, then it goes away after a few seconds, then the EA app will open and the game won’t launch

[slate jolt]

No how.

[stone cradle]

https://www.rxddit.com/r/battlefield2042/comments/1cg4lu2/_/

[vocal tusk]

Nothing to share right now is not the same as "there will be no new portal weapons". Sure its unlikely there will be any more, but that title is not correct.

[stone cradle]

Probably a kind way to say no more, because I don't see any major new content coming out for this game

Apart from all those unsold skin bundles ofcourse

[vocal tusk]

They said the same thing about many elements players said were never coming to the game. Things like all chat, team and squad joining ETC. Main difference back then is support wasnt already announced as dropped.

Regardless...what do players expect AFTER content support has been announced as dropped.

"REEEE, what do you mean no more content after content support was announced as dropped!!!!"

BF honestly has the worst community at times

That thread shows it

[next onyx]

To be fair you'd think they'd finish that part off.

[vocal tusk]

Better to move people on to the new game

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[stone cradle]

Yes, we're the worst for having some expectations

[vocal tusk]

Ah here we go

[stone cradle]

But yes, probably better to move onto the next game quicker

[vocal tusk]

Time to bring out past employee quotes to harrass current devs!

[stone cradle]

where was I harassing?

[vocal tusk]

Speaking of the community in general.

Not you

Look at any devs twitter posts , even not related to this game to see what I mean.

[stone cradle]

That's just twitter

for every game community, no matter the game

[vocal tusk]

Other players normalising this behavior only makes it worse

[stone cradle]

Well I certainly don't like it either but there's no way to stop it, doesn't help when the current owner further pushes for the behaviour and turns a blind eye to it.

[next onyx]

If they told us they were absolutely done with portal guns that'd be fine too.

[queen violet]

Anyone know. What time. This shitty stadium is live ?

Not even a flag in the middle of the stadium. Lmao.

[quaint vector]

No need to behave like this, but Stadium should be live at 12UTC

[naive quiver]

Any new skins for the stadium update

[patent path]

one for a vault weapon

[next onyx]

Bronze ish Deagle skin?

ACW-R I believe cats.

[slate jolt]

Huh?
Do you send photos?

[quaint vector]

Gimme the Black & Gold Deagle tho...

[patent path]

damn that looks so good

[quaint vector]

Looks much better ingame on any map..

[robust vapor]

Gib

[slate jolt]

Beautiful

[quaint vector]

I would do anything for it...

[wicked shell]

1 million USD?

[quaint vector]

Well... Anything besides money (As I don't have any)

[tawny carbon]

Become a dev

O wait, you are one

[quaint vector]

I mean... I can clean the DICE Office, make them coffee, bring cookies as well...

[tawny carbon]

clearly your a dice dev

[quaint vector]

I also did this "monstorsity"

No need to thank me...

Yall seen enought

[tawny carbon]

Not cursed enough

[quaint vector]

Let's see how Stadium will play with randoms in public Servers...

[fickle wharf]

one side holds all flags

[tawny carbon]

I think it will do fine. But way better than haven

[naive quiver]

Update live ?

[dusty sparrow]

1H to go

[fringe spire]

they put frontline on REDACTED???

that has to be the worst map for that gamemode

[quaint vector]

There's no Update..

[dusty sparrow]

next one is scheduled for may

also i suppose for most of the dice devs it's Valborg tonight?

[ruby citrus]

may i introduce you to discarded

(which is the worst map for any gamemode, mind you, but still)

[hazy viper]

How does a guy using ONLY throwing knives in a dethmatch sound if he's on the top of the scoreboard? 😦

[dusty sparrow]

Skill?

[tawny carbon]

Just a gamer tryna T1 throwing knifes

[chilly jacinth]

throwing knives are ez

[hazy viper]

Must be helluva nolifer to get 52 knife kills and 3 deaths?

[chilly jacinth]

better than a gun sometimes

[dusty sparrow]

Never say never

[fossil trench]

When are we getting those drone bombers?

[chilly jacinth]

mid may

[fossil trench]

[dusty sparrow]

may*

[chilly jacinth]

oops

[dusty sparrow]

otherwise 1 year to go lol

[chilly jacinth]

totally didnt forget what month it was

[fossil trench]

Aren’t we also getting a new LMG?

[chilly jacinth]

ye

[fossil trench]

I hate dripfeed…

[chilly jacinth]

same

[tawny carbon]

Better than getting bored quickly when everything released on day 1

[chilly jacinth]

its painful because there isnt much content getting dripfed

[tawny carbon]

And have nothing to look forward for the rest of the season

[chilly jacinth]

it would be better if there was more to look forward to

than just one gun

[tawny carbon]

Something is better than nothing

[chilly jacinth]

[fringe spire]

aren't we supposed to get a plane

[mighty smelt]

Mid may the plane and LMG is coming, according to the roadmap 🙂

[dusty sparrow]

Warmap* 😉

[mighty smelt]

Massive Content Map* 😉

[ruby citrus]

god i hate the ntw-50

its such a shit gun that is used by the low skilled to cheese out kills

[next onyx]

6000 squad score LMAO

[spare pasture]

Has anyone played stadium yet

[chilly jacinth]

only content creators

and devs

[spare pasture]

Hasn’t it released already

[vocal tusk]

No

[fringe spire]

I think there's an issue with the BSVM

how the hell are the bullet velocity numbers so high

high power (non subsonic) + long barrel is 1365 velocity

it's the highest in the game, tied with DXR1 long barrel high power ...

[wicked shell]

Hmmm, I think it should be around 1000 with that setup 🤔 which is still pretty high, but not that much

[hazy viper]

How do I post a game screenshot if it's allowed?

STADIUM IS BACK 🗣️🗣️

[chilly jacinth]

im already annoyed with my team

record time

[quaint vector]

Its much more to play alone than a Squad/Team play IMO

[mental delta]

You lads got to play with mates ? Skill issue true BFer plays on hiw own with a shit bucket

[fringe spire]

I'm basing all of this on data posted on Sorrow's weapon spreadsheet, idk how accurate it all is

[quaint vector]

Well most of my time I play alone..

[mental delta]

https://tenor.com/view/good-satisfied-compliment-like-gif-8132817

I won't ask about second part

I got the same secret...

[royal trail]

just played a game of stadium and we got all flags at the start of the game and held them all basicly the entire game, was extremely onesided

lol

[stone cradle]

Perfect

[radiant iron]

When will the update go live? I couldn't find the exact time

[royal trail]

there wasnt any update

just play now

the map is out

[radiant iron]

Oh, i thought it would require an update

Thanks

[stone cradle]

The map is already in the game, just not activated. Just a server side update to activate it. No need to do anything on your end.

[quaint vector]

[wicked marsh]

Is the new vehicle coming alongside it?

[stone cradle]

I don't think that update is out yet

That would be an update you would need to download I believe

[quaint vector]

It should arrive with Update 7.2 in Mid-May

[mental delta]

Unexpectedly new map is unbalanced lol

[chilly jacinth]

people refuse to push the outside

or the lower levels of the stadium

[patent path]

okay stadium is fun, inside

I don't even care about the A flag

[next onyx]

Isn't basic high power DSR 1000 M/S?

Stadium isn't it dude.

I wasn't expecting much.

[patent path]

I think it's pretty fun inside

kinda small tho

[chilly jacinth]

am40 and zain is def the move

[ancient peak]

Weekly challenges?

[patent path]

I just lost in-game sound, but still have sounds from the youtube tab I'm playing

[spare pasture]

I wonder why

[patent path]

yeah outside part is so bad

completely unnecessary

[chilly jacinth]

i understand why its there

if it wasnt it would be impossible to retake the inside

[vocal tusk]

Yup, but some will tell you a spawn camp is a better solution lol

[patent path]

should have been a path for flanking, not a whole ass point that nobody want to touch

[wicked shell]

I think so yep, might have a look at the speeds to make sure they make sense @fringe spire

[vocal tusk]

"I dont want to play there, I prefer inside" > "Nobody wants to touch"

[patent path]

pp28 is so good

[fringe spire]

according to the spreadsheet it's 1135

975 with wrapped supressor

and 1365 with extended barrel

but maybe sheet is wrong idk

[patent path]

revived this guy then he left me hanging

[fringe spire]

I have to rely on online spreedsheets for weapon data because ingame numbers aren't accurate

[patent path]

he ran away

[fringe spire]

if you enable the setting to show damage number when you hit people, that's accurate, though the number is rounded down

but in the menus, the damage rating isn't correct

and the rpm can be wrong too

[fringe spire]

classic

[patent path]

team ain't doing so hot

[chilly jacinth]

the weapons stats in the menu are meaningless

[fringe spire]

yep

I find it crazy that even things such as rate of fire can be wrong

[next onyx]

@shy forum It was a good surprise seeing you in my game LOL.

[shy forum]

Time to grind

[next onyx]

I've got one more game and I gotta crash for work.

[shy forum]

Alrighty

[next onyx]

It's always good seeing you though. :D

[spare pasture]

The spawns on the outer objective are terrible

[chilly jacinth]

there is no update

start the game and you can play the map

[next onyx]

Thanks for joining in Floris. :))

This map and its spawns are cringe.

[naive quiver]

This is the fastest breakthrough map I've never seen it before

[spare pasture]

The outer objective doesn’t have much protection

[patent path]

this map is perfect for blasco disruptor xp farm lol

it affects multiple floors

[chilly jacinth]

once people figure that Zain is op on this map

its gonna be a pain

[willow sky]

Zain on haven is crazy good too

[robust vapor]

Wrong

D0k on haven

[willow sky]

D0k show me your wisdom

🙏

[robust vapor]

Become d0k

[willow sky]

[robust vapor]

[next onyx]

It needs to be 24v24.

32v32 is too much.

They also need to fix these dogshit spawns.

[willow sky]

Reminds me of hourglass

Oh wait.

[next onyx]

Still better than hourglass to be honest.

[willow sky]

I haven't seen it though but does the map also have the same sandstorm effect as hourglass during a round?

[royal trail]

people keep posting pics of chat here but in my games noone ever say a word

no rage, no troll talk and not even gg

[willow sky]

I usually get ggs in my games

[kindred flint]

Shame, trolling in all chat is what I live for

[robust vapor]

Turn off chat and turn on again

[royal trail]

oh you think mine might be bugged? ill give it a try, thanks

[robust vapor]

If it doesn't work otherwise, become d0k

[royal trail]

[fossil trench]

How are we liking the “new” map?

[naive ember]

Best map now

[chilly jacinth]

i like it so far

but havent played much on it yet

[fossil trench]

Are we gonna get at least ONE legendary skin for the vcar before the season ends?

I think it’s the only primary gun since day 1 that doesn’t have one

[stone cradle]

vcar

For the 2 people who have T1'd it and still use it

[deep pecan]

sector B exists just to be capped in a jiffy

[chilly jacinth]

it exists so you can swarm mid map

[fossil trench]

lol

[deep pecan]

BT on this map is too wack

[stone cradle]

It has BT?

Thought it didn't

Would be better if it didn't.

[deep pecan]

BOTS actually ruin server browser, and matchmaking is full of hackers

[spare quest]

ur in asia ofc its full of hackers

[robust vapor]

preach

[ruby citrus]

ok played one round of stadium and i never want to see it again

[deep pecan]

mind ya, NA server i was in during BFV

shjt is just as bad

[ruby citrus]

spawned straight into someones crosshairs like a dozen times in 10 minutes

[robust vapor]

i love asian region

[solid osprey]

I’m unable to join any matches on bf 2042 on my xbox series x, any suggestions

You guys might have

[ruby citrus]

ok yeah got my bp mission for it, never playing it again

spawns are broken, and its a worse meat grinder than locker

why can we not have more maps like reclaimed

[solid osprey]

It’s been almost 2 months since I’ve played a match 😢

[robust vapor]

not the problem. the problem in asia right now is the cheaters

[ruby citrus]

im straight up just not liking the map designs they've been putting out lately

they've been leaning heavily into the close quarter meat grinders for some reason

which were some of my most avoided maps in previous bf titles (and still are)

[robust vapor]

you got other maps tho some maps are meant for cqb

[ruby citrus]

fair, and true, but I wanted something new that I liked

to be fair we're never getting a true urban map in 2042 probably

[robust vapor]

you won't get that anymore

season 7 is announced to be the final

[ruby citrus]

damn, rip

so wait, battle passes and stuff are like over form this point on?

[robust vapor]

ye

[deep pecan]

reminder that BF players won't have anything to look forward to for at least a year

[ebon pilot]

because the rest of the maps in the game were massive open fields

[deep pecan]

since BC2 at least, a new game is announced while the current one was still being support partially

[ebon pilot]

all the way until S2 there were basically zero smaller maps

[deep pecan]

speaking of map, was I getting gaslit when someone claimed Golmud Railway was a good CQ map

I rmb that map was quite horrible

[ruby citrus]

theres a difference between smaller map and meat grinder, not every small map is locker

[ebon pilot]

yeah, and until S6 there were zero meat grinders in the game

but for some reason there's a large number of people that like those grinders

[royal swan]

Reclaimed is a example of a small map that isn't a meat grinder

[ruby citrus]

it quite literally is a meat grinder, albeit I will concede a well designed one

[deep pecan]

a lot of map in BF3 wwere pretty mid in size and not a grinder

[ebon pilot]

how is reclaimed a meat grinder?

[royal swan]

Reclaimed is not as meat grindy to be a meat grinder like redacted and stadium

[deep pecan]

reclaimed is not as grindy as reclaimed??

[royal swan]

Redacted

Sorry

[deep pecan]

reclaimed is cool actually

it's just zavod encore

as horrible as BF4 launch maps were, that one is actually good

[royal swan]

When I think of a meat grinder I think constant grenades and tight points with games lasting the entire timer. Reclaimed is barely there.

[deep pecan]

altho I wish the kept the underground tunnel under the factory

[ruby citrus]

redacted is like the best xp/tier1 farmer in the game

esp bt

tho stadium might win that now

[deep pecan]

the stadium is pretty wide open tbh

it ends very fast

a lot of side doors and underway

[royal swan]

Does anyone actually go to the wide open area

[deep pecan]

ye, if they want to cap B

[royal swan]

You mean A

[deep pecan]

B is more central

if you let RU cap A, US might as well give up

[royal swan]

B is still more in stadium

A is nearly forgotten half the time

Maybe a squad or 2 go there a bit

But everyone is in stadium trying to spawn camp the other

And the amount of smoke is enough to give lung cancer

Like god damn

[ruby citrus]

spawns in stadium are broken af too

spawned so many times straight into someones crosshairs

[deep pecan]

can't even use minimap because Blasco

they could have made the Central Stadium as an ez cap for one side,

and only give two flags in the stands

but no

gotta make sure everyone clumps together

on BT, zain just blasted all the defenders asses up the wazoo

[ruby citrus]

only strat i found was to use paik and shoot at the dinks in smoke

[royal swan]

Who is the defending faction

[ruby citrus]

since you cant see shit otherwise

[royal swan]

On bt

[deep pecan]

RU

idk if it was a balance thing or something, I lost all the defend matches and won all the offense ones

[ruby citrus]

so another hilariously attacker sided new map

[deep pecan]

i mean

[junior galleon]

hows the stadium map

[royal swan]

Thanks, I shall avoid all matches that put me in defending for stadium

[deep pecan]

Redacted and Haven were not favoring ATK at all

Haven just fucks with all sides

[ruby citrus]

haven ive never seen defenders win

its a discarded level stomp

[rocky ether]

tbf i feel that alot of the older map changes they mad was bad i prefered the old map setups

[ruby citrus]

they just walk into a point and they take it

[deep pecan]

discarded C point is hell to cap

[ruby citrus]

personal exp with discarded is its a literal massacre up until E

and then its make or break there

if attackers get high ground its joever

[deep pecan]

Stranded is a weird one too

if the Atker can get to final cap, it's basically over

[ruby citrus]

stranded seems to be make or break on B specifically

if B fails its usually an attacker W

similar thing with exposure

exposure B one of the hardest points to take in the entirety of 2042 prolly

[deep pecan]

have you even played Iwo Jima

tbh 2042 has some really fucked design

but what's done is done

[ruby citrus]

I said 2042 specifically

[deep pecan]

some map has verticality that can be easily bypassed by a hook

[ruby citrus]

mackay and sundance are a plague on vertical maps like manifest and exposure

[deep pecan]

mackay is good on like most maps

on Haven, he easily repositioned to one of the roofs

[ruby citrus]

im mostly fine with that

but the manifest is like, ugh

[deep pecan]

manifest is just a shjt map, cant be helped

what if, they make the hooker a universal Assault gadget

[ancient peak]

Please no. I can only deal with one assault power creep at a time

[deep pecan]

it's too fun, tho

[ancient peak]

For spider mac sure. For Crawford who’s just trying to kill the tank that’s farming his team it’s a nightmare

[vocal tusk]

Ruins whole games map design. "Its fun tho"

[deep pecan]

truly fun

[ancient peak]

Look I think the railgun tank is fun (especially before it was nerfed 27 times) but I can agree it really made other vehicles pointless

[ruby citrus]

I just want the SRAW buffed

that scope zoom is crazy and damage is awful

[ancient peak]

My issues is it’s so slow

I can work with low damage if I could actually hit the target I’m aiming at

[patent path]

isn't it quite fast, just that the fov is so zoomed in you can't steer for shiieet?

[ruby citrus]

yeah that

[ancient peak]

Maybe that’s it, idk I used it like twice before dropping it for the rpg lol

[patent path]

it's more like an anti-ground vehicle launcher with some ability to correct a missed shot

RPG is still the best though, the extra damage is nice

[sturdy otter]

stadium doesn't favour russian team. As USA win win win win.

[ruby citrus]

it is basically objectively worse than the TGM in every imaginable way

less damage, worse aiming, weird windup

[sturdy otter]

Zero balance

[vital mauve]

OMG is the new map out!!!???!! 😮 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥

[ruby citrus]

yeah, I don't like it that much tbh

its just a shitshow of blascos and smoke grenades

[vital mauve]

yeah ima just keep it uninstalled and wait until the next battlefield

[naive quiver]

I think the new map was alright , if your team knows how to push

[glad island]

What would you say the best barrel attachment for the SFAR is?

[spare pasture]

Stadium bt layout is terrible

[mental delta]

Me too fr fr once I'm done with BP I'll delete that shit to Oblivion

[vital mauve]

ur just wasting ur time tbh. they aint adding anythjng new anymore really. might aswell uninstall now

[jagged yacht]

I made a portal match new map only 128 players conquest.

Called NEW MAP 128 PLAYERS

[mental delta]

I know but I've been dedicated enough to finish all BPs since launch so I want to finish

[ebon pilot]

there's no music on stadium?

op there it is

[jagged yacht]

No AI on my map I made full xp only real players

[acoustic oar]

holyshit is this map bad. Its worse than redaccted and that was already a shit fest

[mental delta]

That's that bad ?

[patent pivot]

Stadium BT feels like squad rush

NGL

[acoustic seal]

damn i get on twitter to look at the yapping and i see straight up ESP clips up and down the tl

shit looks like bf5

(mostly a certain heli pilot and his buddies) (not ashe)

also i'm going to need $5 paypal from everyone in here saying stadium plays like shit

[spare quest]

stadium is one of the maps of all time

[patent pivot]

Plays like squad rush

But with fuck tons of people

[drowsy shuttle]

Yeah another meme map

Bring back Frontlines btw

[patent pivot]

Dice: what's that? Idk

[acoustic seal]

@vocal tusk you were yapping before, hows the map?

[patent pivot]

Here, have conquest instead

[acoustic oar]

Should have kept the haven/redaccted conquest playlist, at least one map there was somewhat decent

[drowsy shuttle]

Haven is good and worked pretty well in frontlines.

Stadium its just a meme like redacted

[ebon pilot]

#battlefield-2042 message

wait that's not him

sometimes i think this compact discord ui makes things hard to read

[spare pasture]

Wdym ”like redacted”

[drowsy shuttle]

I don't take that map "serious" it's too small.

Was somehow better in frontlines cause only 20x20

Maybe if it was 16x16 or something like that would be better

[spare pasture]

I think it’s a good meat grinder map

[drowsy shuttle]

Therefore... meme map

[spare pasture]

Like metro and metro

[patent pivot]

Falck intensifies

Most of the specialist outfits are so “specialist”

[topaz field]

Like paik has no cover for her head with nothing on her head except the wallhacks

Falck has no helmet

Boris has no helmet

Angel has goggles he doesn’t use

Lis only has some thin headphone

Mackay has a fucking cap on

The waiting game

[drowsy shuttle]

Yeah "map" is bad. Now play it for the weekly missions or just pass it? Humm

Decisions decisions decisions

[gloomy bloom]

I'm from NA and my friend lives in Kuwait. We're trying to connect to EU servers to balance latency but it connects us to NA or Middle East Servers. Is there a solution for this?

Probably one of my favorite pistols

[spare quest]

why the flashlight

[ebon pilot]

that's just what it shows you on the reward screen

that often means there's a specific attachment that goes with the skin

like the suppressor looks different with the T1 vs factory

[chrome hazel]

Holy

[chilly jacinth]

meanwhile im working on the m1911

[spare quest]

not that bad tbh

[willow sky]

blind enemies

[ruby citrus]

my issue with stadium is its a shitshow of blascos and smoke grenades, so its literally just another irish/recon grind spot

im prolly just gonna do my weeklies for it and then never touch it again

[spare quest]

my team never uses irish, the other team always has like 5

[ruby citrus]

btw am i crazy or is the scz like super mid

swapped from it back to pbx and its night and day

[spare quest]

it is very mid

[ruby citrus]

pbx melts in comparison

and is a laser beam hip fired

[spare quest]

pbx has the fastest ttk up to 20 meters iirc

[ruby citrus]

fr?

[spare quest]

200ms with close quarter ammo

[ruby citrus]

thats craazy

[fiery shoal]

pretty sure its like under 10m

i remember waygy raving about the ttk up close and its only under that extreme distance iirc

wait you said close quarter

[vocal tusk]

Stadium map outside spawns are too far from the objective. Many thought the issues would be players shooting from spawn into A or B, but the issue is approach to these flags is too long...its extremely easy to defend from A or B to either exterior deployments.

This distance to run makes players not even bother trying to fight there

[ruby citrus]

i never got spawncamped more than on stadium

in my time playing 2042

[vocal tusk]

So you instead spawn inside and get straight back to capping flags

the spawn borders are also terrible...they need to make it so you cant easily just run behind the place the opposing team spawns on the inside...its actually baffling design

Did they not have enemies literally running into other team spawn and getting multi-kills in internal QA tests

the US side approach is also CLEARLY layed out in a way thats not designed for Conquest. All the cover is placed lengthways...and all the sand dunes are the same. Defending players from RU side just instantly see you along 400m sightlines

Cover around A and B is fine...but the deployment approaches are horrible.

[ruby citrus]

by the time im done with the weeklies for that map I would be more than sick of it

[vocal tusk]

It also seems as if US side spawn is 40M closer to A and B

[ruby citrus]

it feels too compact yet too open at the same time

[vocal tusk]

Inside is too compact, outside is too open...the flags are finish...but the approaches to those flags are so easy to defend

Inside is probably fine, im just not used to it yet...but the outside and the spawns/ability to literally run into enemy spawn (On the inside) and still have 7 seconds on the clock is a huge issue

There was no one there on this attempt...but you REALLY should not be able to run directly into an enemy teams spawn like this.

[chilly jacinth]

i did this and got an 11 multikill

[vocal tusk]

Its so easily fixable also...just pull up the out of bounds area by about 10 meters on both sides

[chilly jacinth]

or decrease the OOB time

[patent pivot]

Might as well reduce desertion timer

[vocal tusk]

Cant do that as it alters game design/consistency
