battlefield-2042

[woven sonnet]

PLEASE

DICE

[stone cradle]

I ventured out there a few times. Saw probably atleast 7 glints

[woven sonnet]

EA

[kindred flint]

[remote kiln]

wow this one part of the map I never actually liked to begin with was the best why DICE did remove it omg

[stone cradle]

when will we have 24/7 spearhead again

[kindred flint]

hopefully never

[stone cradle]

[kindred flint]

that was a map i grew to hate

and then when the 64/128p modes were the same map

that shit was way too big for 64

[stone cradle]

Can we all agree they should take out hourglass from the map pool

[kindred flint]

it really feels like different sectors of like 3 different maps lol

[stone cradle]

you can call in vehicles, skill issue

[fresh lintel]

I never got to play on Stadium because last gen didnt get that part of the map

Now we just get it as its own map

[kindred flint]

the team with the most competent vehicles just zipping around can win

imagine if vehicles spawned at the control points did past BF titles do this? nah probably not that seems like a dumb idea

[stone cradle]

Now we need the central building in Kaleidocscope as it's own map pls DICE

[woven sonnet]

is 2042 30fps on last gen?

[fresh lintel]

Yup

[woven sonnet]

cooked

[fresh lintel]

30FPS. Smaller maps. 64 players.

Most players are worse than A.I

But then you got the special shitters with XIMs.

Very few players actually worth remembering or taking note. And theyre mostly in clans.

[stone cradle]

I played for a bit. It's actually not that bad

Compared to BF4 on last gen

(the version I got when that launched)

So it basically never even launched for days and even after it was fixed it was actually an unusable version of the game, enemies could pop in right infront of you and the game had a habit of massively delaying hitreg. So if you kill someone they die like a solid 5 seconds later than they would.

Next BF will be current-gen only hopefully

Not like cod still stuck on last gen for profits

[fresh lintel]

I hope so too. But i also hope they become cheaper.

$600 is basically leaving me with no rent and maybe a weeks worth of food.

[stone cradle]

They're nowhere near that now

I see the Series X at lower than 300 these days and PS5s lower than 400

[winged venture]

man im at a loss.. i cant get bf2042 to quit crashing... all last week it was fine.. now the past 2 days it crashes after about 10-15 mins of play

anyone else having issues

[naive ember]

Not as much but it still happens

[fresh lintel]

$600 here in Canada for a Series X

And yeah i'm probably gonna stop playing if DICE is genuinely not going to ban problematic players cause holy fuck

[vernal pendant]

after playing for a while the weapon swich issue is still there encountered it few times durning the game

[remote kiln]

yes it will never get fixed

[arctic grove]

off subject but when do u think ufc 5 will be in play list so i dont have to worry about 10 hours of play i pay every month

[vernal pendant]

why?

[remote kiln]

the game has ended support, updates will cease from may

[vernal pendant]

i never had this issue before just couple of months now

[remote kiln]

it has been an issue since launch it's not new

come to expect it or play something else

[acoustic seal]

cheaters? nah we're in the bf5 gap now, nobody's paying attention

[vernal pendant]

i did not even had this from launch its new for me

[fresh lintel]

Ah right yeah. Its EADice I forgot. They dont care at all.

[arctic grove]

whats this crap about

[vernal pendant]

non of my friends has it

[arctic grove]

always be cheaters

regradless

[remote kiln]

well it's been there so you learn something new everyday ig

gotta get used to it

[fresh lintel]

Ximmers are cheaters and its just killing the mood constantly dealing with them.

[naive ember]

What cheaters?

[arctic grove]

pc players mostly i say

modders

[naive ember]

^

[arctic grove]

cod justas bad

[remote kiln]

ximmers are console not pc

[arctic grove]

its a mess

[fresh lintel]

Oh yeah CoD MWII is plagued with em

[naive ember]

Get rid of all pc players, problem solved

[remote kiln]

they're rare* on pc anyways

[fresh lintel]

Xim for PC is REWASD

[arctic grove]

wouldnt be surprised

i play mw3

company is in a mess im seeing so many bugs

company going down

they cant keep up with chesters

cheaters

[azure zenith]

No one cares about cheaters unless they get caught using aimbot in tournaments or flying tanks across the map. Everyone just says it's hackusation until then. Lol 😂

[fresh lintel]

I blame EA.

And then Activision has been dogshit for a decade now

[arctic grove]

i enjoyed cold war stor

alot

[fresh lintel]

Not to say DICE is free from hate its just EA are greedy corporate bastards.

[arctic grove]

but cheating ruins it

[remote kiln]

cheat makers have used methods which are mostly undetectable, it's not like the old days when cheats were software based

the only people who have kept ahead of it are riot and faceit for the most part

[arctic grove]

just sad

back when to i traded my nintendo switch and he said was it modded

lol

just proves

aha

[fresh lintel]

Yeah and with shit like REWASD existing because PC bads cant cope getting dunked on by console players so they need console benefits and MNK

[remote kiln]

rewasd is blocked by EA anticheat

[fresh lintel]

Oh thank god.

[remote kiln]

just hardware spoofers require a different level of detection to catch

[arctic grove]

wel companys need to gt there shit together

it just get worst

[remote kiln]

is a catch 22 situation people complain when anti cheats become more invasive when they need to, to catch cheats, and then they get blamed when they dont

[azure zenith]

Lots of spoofers these days. But I will admit I've gotten a couple emails from EA saying they banned people I reported with is good. Haven't seen that HARM tag team in awhile. Lol

[arctic grove]

eventally games will be unplayable

[azure zenith]

True

[arctic grove]

deco i have a question

[remote kiln]

sure

[fresh lintel]

I have two HARM guys on my friends list and I havent seen them play BF in a while.

Though I imagine its because its just 2042 being 2042.

Like one plays alot of AoE 3

[arctic grove]

deco im waiting for ufc 5 to hit the playlist i pay every month i see went up when do u think it be of the trial phase?

[fresh lintel]

Or whatever that remastered Age of empires is.

[arctic grove]

bc i dont want to spend 103 bucks

[remote kiln]

no idea don't work for ea

[arctic grove]

ok then deco

[azure zenith]

I used to always see them. Haven't seen then once during season 7. One time we played against a team that was half HARM. That was weird. I'm sure they are a discord team. Game jumping.

[fresh lintel]

Yeah maybe. I know theyre next genners so I just assume they went off there.

Havent seen them in force since S5. Played with one or two in S6.

Same thing with those CA guys. Seen them early this season for a couple matches and now theyre gone

[azure zenith]

Been seeing a bunch of new account tags. Some look like team tags.

[fresh lintel]

Ive been seeing a few "temps"

[azure zenith]

Seen those too

[fresh lintel]

Something like temp137474 or whatever lmak

[azure zenith]

Crazy how some peeps take BF and COD so seriously. Lol

[remote kiln]

2042 will probably go the way of battlefront 2 where the only people playing left in a few years are hardcore users most likely, is what it is

[azure zenith]

True

[fresh lintel]

Usually how it goes for games. The only ones left typically being diehards.

I know i'll stick around for 2042. But at the same time theres other games to play

And I dont mind the clans. I just wouldnt change my name for them.

[azure zenith]

CSGO stop support after a couple years then it got popular for 13 years. Probably won't happen for 2042. But who knows. Still the least sucky FPS game out IMO.

[azure zenith]

Same

[fresh lintel]

Its got its issues but i'd rather be playing this than MW2 or MW3.

[azure zenith]

Facts

[fresh lintel]

And i'm not a milsimmer so i'm not bothering with Reforger (unless i get a PC)

And i'd probably end up reinstalling MWO/Planetside 2 and living in those games lmao

[vernal pendant]

it must be a fix coz i did not had it and most i know don't have it either like wtf

[steel plover]

can I see my ping somewhere in game on the leaderboard

[fresh lintel]

Yeah, hold down start (or whatever the button is for PC) and on the left of the screen. Above the Ribbon rewards itll show your ping

[steel plover]

oooh, saw it, thank you so much I appreciate it

[stone cradle]

The difference is that Battlefront II players basically have no other options

Battlefield players do have a decent few other options

[azure zenith]

I might go back to the halo legendary campaigns again. Maybe even BO campaign if it get to thin with 2042 or thet just lose complete anticheat support. Kinda hoping xdefiant is good but I'm not counting on it. Lol

[stone cradle]

I have a huge backlog to go through. EA ironically helping me now

[remote kiln]

it was never fixed you're just getting your hopes up

[pine roost]

Like what?

[stone cradle]

the older BFs, other shooters, community projects for older BFs like Venice Unleashed

[pine roost]

Looking at the same franchise, sure, but I’ve not really found anything that feels the same besides battlebit

[stone cradle]

MWIII ground war?

[pine roost]

Not touching cod

I wouldn’t with a 10m pole

[vernal pendant]

yea but how did i got it now like wtf happend

[acoustic seal]

rewasd is sad to me, i'm pretty sure it used to be legitimate to fill in the gaps where microsoft keeps xinput deliberately broken

i fucking hate microsoft so much

[fresh lintel]

Yup. REWASD has its uses and its cool tech. But people gotta ruin nice things.

Same with Xim. I want to use MNK on more games but id need Xim to do that. Theres so many single player games that dont have MNK support 😭

Or innate MNK support*

[acoustic seal]

i don't remember what game but i've seen people asking for steam input to be banned because people kept making macros with it

oh apex

holy cheating https://twitter.com/Treereeeee/status/1751685041208393933

[fresh lintel]

Lmao

[remote kiln]

assumingly cfgs were banned but you can still do these

this type wasn't one cfg though, it was a chain of hundreds, respawn didn't do anything though unsurprisingly until it got massively popular

[kindred flint]

try to play another match....lag happening all over, now to figure out if my internet is dying again

[woven sonnet]

pp so pog

[kindred flint]

nope seems fine just a shit fucking server apparently, very cool dice

[woven sonnet]

choked that clip i lov it

[kindred flint]

i love guns that shoot boolets that have no recoil

[vernal pendant]

yea its good unless ur gear keep swiching like mine does atm

[woven sonnet]

wdym

[kindred flint]

very good game design dice...allow users to totally negate a gameplay mechanic

[acoustic seal]

you've descibed all the guns in 2042, please be more specific

[kindred flint]

yeah thats the issue

[vernal pendant]

everytime i shoot or walk it swiches to pistol or anyother gear on engineer it gives me a repair tool

[woven sonnet]

reset keybinds or sum

[kindred flint]

fix your game thats a you issue

[woven sonnet]

u cooked something

[stone cradle]

ac9 better

[vernal pendant]

did that alof of times reinstalled game removed setting files

[kindred flint]

theres no way

[vernal pendant]

reinstalled my keyboard/mouse software

[woven sonnet]

close range ttk maybe

but thats about it

if you go for body shots

[acoustic seal]

they giga buffed the ac9 in the last patch, it's at least competitive

[kindred flint]

ac9 is a ripper...i like it more than the k30

but its not as broken as a 50-60 round smg with no recoil

[woven sonnet]

well the ac9 would have needed to reload like 4 times in that clip

lol

[kindred flint]

yeeeah

suffers from too much rpm

[vernal pendant]

used my old mouse but still does that but my keybinds are on my mouse i left keybinds in game on default just use there but using keystrokes on my mouse to make weapon swich easy to play @woven sonnet

[kindred flint]

which is an issue dice seems to love to get themselves into

[woven sonnet]

idk i just use 123

its peak

[woven sonnet]

idk most weapons besides lmgs just have too little ammo in mag for multikills like the pp

[vernal pendant]

yea me too but on my mouse i dont use keyboard to swich weapons always did since bf3 and so on and i did not had this issue before its just goin for months now did not done anything special

[stone cradle]

thats why I have the bfp

[kindred flint]

why not just go single action revolver? worst rpm possible

[stone cradle]

I've played a bit in the scz. And it's just... ok?

[kindred flint]

the new smg?

[stone cradle]

Did it get nerfed really early on or something

yeah

[kindred flint]

after you unlock some stuff for it, its pretty good

starts off very mid like the 5c imo

wouldnt say its a broken smg at all

[vernal pendant]

love that gun

[stone cradle]

Is it as good as the AC9 though

in terms of going brrrr

[kindred flint]

it has more ammo

its more like a pbx though

[acoustic seal]

i t1'd the ak5c and i can pretty confidently say it's just a holder for your masterkey

[stone cradle]

Oh. So a better pbx? interesting

[vernal pendant]

idk wat els to do to make it working again i did literly everything

[stone cradle]

Will T1 still. Like the other smgs

[kindred flint]

i didnt say better

[stone cradle]

[kindred flint]

pbx still 💯 in my heart

im saying its more like a pbx=decent rof, vs a ac9/k30 bullet hose mag emptied after you think about pulling the trigger

[stone cradle]

truly. feels so powerful in your hand. Just had a game where my ac9 ran out and I relied on it solely to get a solid 6 more kills before dying

Best secondary imo

[vernal pendant]

yeppp me too man also to easy to make headshots

[acoustic seal]

truly one of the decisions of all time to give a semiauto pistol a 75 damage range

[stone cradle]

Seriously I'm surprised it hasn't been nerfed

I'm on console so bad aim. But I imagine on PC it would be solid to use as a primary lol.

[vernal pendant]

its gonna be my first ever sidearm to make it T1 XD

[acoustic seal]

what's the HSM for pistols now? i think them fucking with it again is why i get so many 98 damage headshots

it's in this weird place where it puts out so much damage but also cant kill people on headshots for some reason

[woven sonnet]

bro is it just me or is it way harder to get 100+ games on the new map

i have yet to get one

on conquest

[acoustic seal]

the new map is dogshit and you die from anywhere at any time so it's expected

[errant patio]

love how they just took the magnum and then just made it better

[woven sonnet]

yea my most kills game yet is 94 - 14

atm

[errant patio]

"but muh longer one shot headshot range"

[vernal pendant]

sheeeshh

[woven sonnet]

bro I am so mad I choked it

they had good players too

mclovin it

[peak zealot]

what graphic settings do y all use cuz i lag alot

or maybe my 2080 is dying

[woven sonnet]

everything low

[vernal pendant]

i want to be my game to fix cant get good plays anymore like ugg

[woven sonnet]

and i play on 4080 so ya

[vernal pendant]

all high settiings preset

[vernal pendant]

i play on 2060

[acoustic seal]

everything low and taa turned off in the config

[woven sonnet]

its peak

[peak zealot]

my poor 2080 is slowly dying

[acoustic seal]

still cant see people without the stupid glowsticks

[woven sonnet]

bro that glowstick bug

...

my screen be exploding

[errant patio]

I hate hazard zone i hate hazard zone i hate hazard zone

[vernal pendant]

could it be a driver issue or a software issue that it keeps swiching my gun since i already cleared the keybinds to all default, only keybinds i use ingame are for my helis/pilot as riffle aim but thats all i did

[acoustic seal]

oh my god the visual recoil update fucked the pf51 so hard

it wasnt exactly good before but now this thing is unusable lmao

[opaque light]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/184057566978899969/1236479267135684629/finallygotdit.PNG?ex=6638288d&is=6636d70d&hm=3391ba92a6bc79e0dfa04729f6c97316a88d244a7e23c52056a8f5578f45110e&

holy crap it really does keep the name of the original file, sweet.

[vernal pendant]

is it true that ak5c and szc not added in battlefield tracker yet?

[opaque light]

doesn't look like it, just checked myself on tracker and don't see it in there yet.

also, considering I just got T1 on my M5 it's not up to date either.

[vernal pendant]

maby its too slow

i even did t1 scz and almost ak5c but no update on those yet

[ebon pilot]

tf

wtf is this hole

[woven sonnet]

ultra wide is

crazy

watch me abuse pp for 1 min 30 on stadium

[opaque light]

seeing this reminds me I'm just old as frick

the level of target acquisition and reaction is absurd for something like my dumbass.

[woven sonnet]

thanks I'll take it as a compliment haha

a lot of it is just positioning tbh half of the clips I was just behind people

[acoustic seal]

please turn motion blur off 🙏

or is that TAA smearing idk

[next onyx]

Yo achnoid use the p90.

Super fun hipfire smg.

Best 50 round smg.

[woven sonnet]

will try 🙂

[woven sonnet]

it is off 🙂 it‘s the render cuz it‘s recorded at 180fps and the dump is 60fps for twitter and stuff

never catching me with anything that adds blur on

[woven sonnet]

• it‘s compressed for discord now

so people can watch on phone too

[languid cloak]

what is the faster time to kill AR

[next onyx]

Am40 / vhx.

They're more closer ranged orientated ars.

[languid cloak]

yeah i am just using my pistol for longer range

[next onyx]

Just use smoke and use that to get close.

The m5a3 and m16a3 are fun as hell.

[languid cloak]

hwo do i get the 16a3

[next onyx]

Kills with the scar and grenade launcher.

[languid cloak]

this scar thing sucks the noob tube on it has one round that does one damage

[next onyx]

The scar is one of the better ranged guns in the game.

You can earn the m16 against bots.

[languid cloak]

i just think the toob under it doesnt do that much

[glacial quarry]

the noob tube sucks ass

scar itself is a decently good gun

6/10 for me

[languid cloak]

just got the ak 5c it good?

[timid inlet]

I very much enjoy the M16

[acoustic seal]

it's a good carrier for the masterkey

[peak zealot]

discovering the smg category has changed my whole life on this game

42/11

[fallow holly]

is there any way to see ping(connection ltency) during game?

[kindred flint]

open the scoreboard, left side middle of the page

[fallow holly]

ty

[night sun]

Hi guys, what sensitivity you guys plway on?

for 2042

[next onyx]

23 with 1600 dpi.

[tawny carbon]

2cm at 3200 dpi

[robust vapor]

420cm at D0K dpi

[placid echo]

Huh, I'm pretty close to Way, 20 at 1600 dpi

I believe I'm at 150% ADS sensitivity, could be wrong.

[vital quail]

Guy spawns in brawler on nosharr US side and immediately turns left and drives into the water lol

[next onyx]

I'm trying to do 15cm for 360 this time. I was talking to reaps and he recommended I learn the techniques rather than relying on speed.

[placid echo]

The brawler's close support defense needs a nerf

[next onyx]

It's stupid.

There used to be actual caviate in bf5.

[placid echo]

The blast radius basically deletes the point of the warning sound effect it has since you can't outrun it if you were close to it anyways

Unless you're Dozer and you pull the shield out

But he's an assault so that shouldn't be a counter

[next onyx]

I mean in general the balance for this game is "you have one character that counters it so it's fair"

When the sph was at its worse I vividly remember an interaction saying "you have aps"

That isn't a proper rebuttel that's just lazy.

We still can't properly outrun the SPH.

I literally went anti meta during season 4 with the m16 and as dozer.

[night sun]

1600 seems too fast for me even if i go to 10

i used to be good with 200 dpi with windows sensitivity multiply to 4/11

with 25 game sens

[vital quail]

Level 45 in my squad and just set their new career high at 3 kills

Of course it's a sniper

[reef cliff]

I hope they tone down the jumpy visual recoil on the svd, vcar, all the low caliber pistols.

[night sun]

ngl i forgot they added visual recoil

[uneven lodge]

did the auto shotty get nerfed or something

i dont see people spamming it often

or at all

[jagged dome]

hey guys i m looking to buy battlefield 5 or 2042 i want to know if its playable in india with 50mbps also you guys can suggest which is better

[quaint vector]

Yup, it was nerfed

[vernal pendant]

hey man @quaint vector maby uve seen my question alround but i really wanna know what id going on with my game, everytime i walk or even shoot my target it swiches to my pistol without me pressing my side button to acual swich to secundairy. Even on a diffrent class it swichws to a repairtool or to a pistol. ive cleared the settings folder multiple times and all i use is my keybinds on my corssair software to bind keystrokes. even reinstalled my game alot of times repaired it too. do u know any other solution or is it just there without fixing it?

[quaint vector]

TBH I have no clue what that could cause.. Maybe the Corssair software.?

[vernal pendant]

could be i reinstalled it 2 times even removed the profiles too

could it be that my mobo software is acting weird with corssair?

[quaint vector]

Try to play without that software and you'll see. I haven't seen issue like this yet (and I have seen a lot others that are always the same) so this is new to me

[vernal pendant]

i did not had this issue few months ago something did happend but i have no clue wat happend

it all started with my previus mouse that was acting weird with those weapon swiches so i bought a new one and issue remains

i did had a maleware and a virus recentrly cleaned

[vernal pendant]

yeaaa ive seen on forums thats the keybinds but even that i cleaned few times

ohhh and btw my vehicles are acting normal

its just infantry

[quaint vector]

Like I said, try to play BF2042 without the software and even can try to reset your keybinde while playing without the software 👀

[vernal pendant]

yea my keybinds are in the software i did not used bf ingame for keybinds i only changeed jet/heli for keybrinds wich are riffle aim setup

yeaa good one might try that one see how it goes

[quaint vector]

Well if the keybinds are in the software, then it can act up..

Would not recomment to use keybinds through any software.. Always the ingame binds

[vernal pendant]

yea its weird to see but ive been using that for years

i mean things change

[quaint vector]

Maybe the recent EA AntiCheat Update could do something with it, but I don't understand to things like these

[vernal pendant]

yea me neither even wile using my old crossair mouse for 2 years it even was acting up like this 2/3 months ago

it could be the crossair

but my friends use crossair too with the same mouse but they dont have the issue even binded the keyscrokes in this crossair software

[vocal tusk]

You could just... Try playing without the software active and see if it fixes it.

[naive quiver]

Without third party software

[vernal pendant]

yea i also have few asus software running on BG for my mobo like i always did

[woven sonnet]

just cuz it always worked doesnt mean it can‘t break

[vernal pendant]

yeaa ofc

i always can reinstall those idm that

[woven sonnet]

boot up the pc kill everything in task manager u dont need

and then start the game

[vernal pendant]

yeaaa

[woven sonnet]

[vernal pendant]

one thing that might be the couse aswel is i had a maleware and a virus recently when it was going wild so i did run the scanner and had like 100 effected stuff

its cleand ofc but think it has some leftovers

[woven sonnet]

idk if I had malware i‘d always reformat the disk and do s fresh install

[vernal pendant]

yea i dont want to reinstall my entire windows i have like so many programmes installed

takes couple of hrs to get it back

😂

[woven sonnet]

well I value my security over a days of work to set everything up again

[vernal pendant]

yea truee

i might have to do it oneday if i cant fix this issue

but it might have effected my other software inc bf i think

but bf is installed on a dif drive

[woven sonnet]

dont matter if it‘s a different drive

[vernal pendant]

yea i know

it can go across the pc and effect everything he wants

[flat quail]

Is season the last season?

[naive ember]

S6 was really the last season it's gone down hill ever since s7 came out

[flat quail]

hmm, year

[vernal pendant]

yes it is sadly

[flat quail]

what weapon are you guys using?

[vernal pendant]

ak5C atm

[flat quail]

assault?

[next onyx]

Yeah.

P90 is great too.

[flat quail]

love p90

[vernal pendant]

yea its assault

[vernal pendant]

did they changed that this season too?

[topaz abyss]

@gusty meteor you there

[woven sonnet]

imma need to try it tonight

[dusty sparrow]

👋

[waxen dock]

has the stadium map been released yet?

[patent pivot]

Vault weapon represent

[fallow holly]

hi, whats the best primary weapon in this game currently ?

[late creek]

Yes stadium is out

[waxen dock]

thanks @late creek

[late creek]

I finally got 2042.
My PC is old and I'm just using a standard hard drive, but these load times are excruciatingly painful 😬

[waxen dock]

I can imagine mate

[patent pivot]

[stone cradle]

It's been 5min and I can't find a game on conquest, on crossplay. At 1pm

[patent pivot]

More like a you problem

[untold flower]

they need to bring back haven and fl rotation

shit was so much better than this stadium garbage

[patent pivot]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

Portal it is then

[naive ember]

Stadium is the best

[ancient peak]

Is the K30/PP29 still the go to SMG or have things changed

[spare quest]

K30?

[untold flower]

@robust vapor this guy mother cb damn smelly

[pale thistle]

I Hate BOTS

I lost to bots on low difficulty

[vocal tusk]

Fitting name in that case

[pale thistle]

We lost because of one point that we couldn't capture

in BF2042

[quaint vector]

SMG meta changed long ago

I mean... K30 can still dominate on Redacted, but people barely use it now

[vocal tusk]

There are probably 4/5 SMGs alone id take over the K30

[ancient peak]

Shows how long I’ve been away

[vocal tusk]

PBX, PP29, CZ, AC9...maybe even the MP9

[ancient peak]

So literally everything but the K30 lol

[vocal tusk]

Just my personal preference, I dont like the K30 all that much.

[spare quest]

P90 is pretty good rn tbh

[vocal tusk]

I really dont like it. Feels like its projectile velocity is awful

Its ability in CQC in hipfire doesnt make up for how bad it is in most other situations

[next onyx]

The true smgs are much better now.

P90 has quite a bit of advantages. Namely its hipfire accuracy and fast reload speeds with a 50 round mag.

PBX and APC9 are brilliant too.

Plus just get close with smokes. Really same strat all round.

Pp29 is just braindead though.

If it had 9 less rounds all round and worse off hipfire accuracy then I wouldn't mind it.

[vocal tusk]

Its funny that the PP29 has always been good

Back at launch when it was super accurate vs other weapons, to its state now

[next onyx]

It's always been consistent.

I don't mind that.

It's just irritating seeing everyone gravitate to it.

[vocal tusk]

I dont know why specifically, but I think T1 on the PBX was one of my favorites.

[next onyx]

Who knows.

[ancient peak]

PBX was my first T1 weapon

[next onyx]

I remember enjoying the PBX for a while.

Then the hs changes came in and screwed with true smgs.

[vocal tusk]

At least they didnt keep that change for over a year! 💀

/s

SMGs just completely useless for a large part of this games life lol

[chilly jacinth]

just played against the most blatant heli aimbotter ive ever seen

thanks dice

Lol

[untold flower]

@glacial quarry shag bro

average 2042 experience

[cloud coral]

Yo whaddup,
Anyone know how I can locate my fellow aussie and kiwi players in there?

[spare quest]

Click on every name and check if they have the Oceania role

[cloud coral]

[rotund kite]

wtf, bots can now crouch while aimboting you lol

[patent pivot]

And?

[blissful flicker]

why does Sundance have one line that's in an american accent

[naive ember]

I have seen them fly at times

[rotund kite]

clearly with the hax, I'd report them
but for real it's getting harder to kill bots than players lol

[patent pivot]

I got no problems with that

I actually want them to use more gadgets

[rotund kite]

sometimes they ruin my flanks, they can spot too
imho I'd rather the game be players only, bf went from pvp to pve

even if there's only 10v10, it makes the game more competitive
rather than just fill the lobby with "fake" players

[acoustic seal]

gotta fill in the gaps for people they let sit in portal xp farming servers

just delete portal, it's a failed experiment

[patent pivot]

Can a man wish for BF game to have a great, flexible mode with AI botsn

How difficult is that

[rotund kite]

that's called a campaign mode

[patent pivot]

Learn the difference between linear, scripted level and open ended map experience

[rotund kite]

why would you want to fight bots when you click on the pvp multiplayer option

[patent pivot]

The community in older BF are damn shit

1. Some people ruin the fun by abusing meta
2. Intoxicating admins, don't need to say anymore
3. Lack of servers hosting different gamemodes and maps

[acoustic seal]

those damn bf4 admins, getting people drunk

[rotund kite]

yeah, bots is the solution

[patent pivot]

That's why WR will save the game

From the cesspool of absurdity

[pine roost]

I mean I’m all for it to allow for longer term support, but would rather not have them in the multiplayer pool

[patent pivot]

Then so be it

Let me do a solo PvE

[rotund kite]

ditto

[mental delta]

I was delighted to hear they stopped supporting BF2042

Now they can go on BF6

Confidently

[patent pivot]

Let's bet on the table

[acoustic seal]

wow, the next game they're working on must be great if they had to cancel bf5 to work on it!

wait

[kindred flint]

this is why you never want to go full french, people

[mental delta]

Lmao why bro ?

[mental delta]

Let history repeat itself

[kindred flint]

if you thinking bf2025 is going to cook

[willow sky]

bf2142 remaster when 😳

[kindred flint]

its either going to be burnt to a crisp at launch, or its going to be foooking raw and still moving in the pot

[mental delta]

Yes yes it'll cook don't worry bro trust me

[kindred flint]

[mental delta]

NATO VS HMMG

[kindred flint]

i think we are all ready for disappointment but...how badly will they fail us is the question

[dusty sparrow]

[mental delta]

Real question, whatever it feels like at launch I just hope it won't lack content at least

Like not releasing with 7 maps for main mode would be really appreciated

[kindred flint]

6 maps is the best we can do fam

trust, love letter 2.0, just gotta bake a little longer

[mental delta]

Don't say shit like that bud

[kindred flint]

bf6=6 maps

[mental delta]

Yeah... love letter...

[kindred flint]

logic

the suits will be happy with our results

[mental delta]

Nah nah nah

Please

[kindred flint]

more time to make DLC maps to charge you for later with premium because everyone forgot how stupid that system was

[mental delta]

At least 10 maps

Just bare minimum

[mental delta]

Well if it allows me to get more content...

[kindred flint]

because the devs are legally obligated to provide it?

[mystic niche]

Is there a performance difference for BF2042 between the Steam and Epic games version. I'm really struggling with the epic version.

[kindred flint]

run the numbers on those premium maps...most were hot shit

[mental delta]

Yes force them to release DLC

[kindred flint]

and if i was to take a wild guess...most of the guns were shit too

[mental delta]

Not performance but there may be launching problems with Epic

[kindred flint]

because they were just ctrl+c->ctrl+v of existing weapons, like in bf4 case

[fallow holly]

hi, whats the best primary weapon in this game currently ?

[mental delta]

I just hope it features more than BF2042

[kindred flint]

anything besides bolt actions

[mystic niche]

Definitely faced that. Anything I can do about it without having to buy it again on another platform?

[mental delta]

The second DMR

[mental delta]

Well you can apparently transfer a game from Epic to Steam but it doesn't function pretty well so no sorry, I'd have advised you to buy it on either Steam or EA launcher

[mystic niche]

i'm curious about this. how do I transfer it to steam

[mental delta]

Look it up on Google bro idk how to do it lol, I just tried it a while back to transfer Fallout 3 but it didn't really function

[plucky basin]

To me its just means they will make the same low quality crap and then abandon game for next title

[naive ember]

More stadium maps please

[mental delta]

Nah I hope not lol game would have been in develoment for 4 years

[mental delta]

No there's no more maps to come

[arctic grove]

[mental delta]

[unborn temple]

is javelin rpg broken?

[chilly jacinth]

no

[errant patio]

can't wait for them to try another BR like mode

And for it to be even worse than Trash Zone

[elfin surge]

I just installed bf 2042 , tried adding my friend via ea app i click ✅️on his friend request in EA app and nothing happens, it stays there can anyone help

[topaz abyss]

yeah its glitched

its annoying as fuck been happening for the last 3 days

[elfin surge]

So i can't play with my friends

[arctic grove]

[topaz abyss]

have you got the ea app?

[calm bison]

Welcome back to Episode 81735 of The EA App sucks

[rotund kite]

why is it even there is the question

[naive ember]

My ea app works

[kindred flint]

lmao god the fucking 12m is shit on stadium

[rotund kite]

anything is shit on that map

[kindred flint]

especially that team i just had to leave mid game

[twilit ivy]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YEe4MawVlRg&ab_channel=Winnebeg

[merry heart]

So has the cheating situation here gotten worse or did it dissipate somewhat? Given with some streamers openly cheating on Twitch.

[kindred flint]

jesus christ we actually came back and won that by like 50 at the end

[acoustic seal]

[merry heart]

Mind you I haven't played in like 5 months

[ivory canopy]

I just want to T1 every primary weapon at least before the game dies

[remote kiln]

about the same, not worse or better

[acoustic seal]

lukeskyfarmer and company didn't stream, the people who do stream are like enders, junda, dscisiv and they don't cheat

[merry heart]

Only in the last few days I've been seeing ghost gaming saying that there were cheaters openly cheating or something Idk

[merry heart]

[remote kiln]

it's not any different than it used to be

those guys were cheating for months/years

[merry heart]

Hmm okay

Okay

Then I guess I'll be just as bored, like the last time I played

[dusty sparrow]

I don't think i ever seen a cheater

[ivory canopy]

I've been accused before

Just a match where I was middling but then I "woke up"

[arctic stump]

Where can I get rocket launchers from

[mental delta]

From Engineer class lol

[peak zodiac]

uhhhhhhh why does bf2042 not like my geforce experience, it works here and there

[remote kiln]

https://www.nvidia.com/en-gb/software/nvidia-app/ GFE is being depreciated

[peak zodiac]

it used to work a week ago

and

it works sometimes

[remote kiln]

GFE is being removed as stated before anyways just get the Nv app

[peak zodiac]

i meann just because its gonna get removed some day doesnt mean it should break in bf2042?

[remote kiln]

it's a piece of software which hasn't been updated in months so don't expect smooth compatibility

[peak zodiac]

it worked completely fine till a week ago

https://tenor.com/view/dancing-dance-block-party-party-partying-gif-18114396674706062346

and bf2042 is the only game that shits it self with ge

[remote kiln]

idk why you're so resistant to this regardless if it's working or not, just get the app version

[peak zodiac]

because it used to work and i loved it when it did

[remote kiln]

it's a bad piece of software the app version is superior, pretty simple, no point reminiscing about it

just run the installer it will remove GFE in the process you're not doing much here not doing so

[peak zodiac]

there gotta be a setting to get it in the middle, no?

lets see if this works in bf2042

[remote kiln]

you need to reboot your machine lol

[peak zodiac]

i figured

its making me reinstall my driver

lol

while thats happening, the shadows dont seem right in this room

[kindred flint]

lmaooo

they didnt pay their electricity bill

[peak zodiac]

they were behind on so many bills that they even took the sunlight away

[rustic moth]

I am having the same issue.

[peak zodiac]

i think its just that map

[rustic moth]

Yeah since Season 7 it has been like that

[remote kiln]

won't be fixed is what it is

[peak zodiac]

this didnt fix anything lol

[remote kiln]

I never said it would, you said GFE, your recording isn't to do with that, it's using shadowplay

[peak zodiac]

well why did you make me update to this uglier version then 😭

[remote kiln]

because gfe is being removed as I said previously lol, best to get used to it before you're forcibly adjusted to it

Nvidia shadowplay isn't to do with either, it's a separate piece of software

[peak zodiac]

i am thinking abt just completely resetting my laptop just because of this shit

but i got too much on here that i have to make sure that it works

and i fr cba with that

[next onyx]

Just buy a HDD and back it up then.

[remote kiln]

bit extreme, just use obs or something

[peak zodiac]

its stuff that cant rlly be backed up

i got the drive for it thats not the problem

[peak zodiac]

i tried but the quality was poo

[next onyx]

Like games?

[remote kiln]

that's because you didn't configure your settings properly

OBS default settings are not there for recording quality, they need to be manually adjusted

[peak zodiac]

nah docker, WSL stuff for visual studio

stuff like that

[peak zodiac]

i changed allat i got it to meh but never really high res

and you keep gotta change windows in obs if you wanna clip in different res

bcuz i play fps games in 1080p and forza n stuff in 1440p

[remote kiln]

..?

why?

[peak zodiac]

i play on a laptop, 1440p fps gaming is uhhh not nice

like 120fps

[remote kiln]

how is that not enough for a laptop lol

[peak zodiac]

well because im used to 170+

[remote kiln]

bit extreme, you're on the wrong platform for that

[peak zodiac]

i get 170+ on bf2042

i think im fine

same with mw3

[remote kiln]

then where are you getting 120 from

[peak zodiac]

if i put the game on 1440p

[remote kiln]

oh

[peak zodiac]

it drops down to 120

which is... bleh

[remote kiln]

still on the wrong platform if you want that high framerate, never going to achieve that on a laptop at non 1080p

[peak zodiac]

i think im fine for now

my intentions wasnt even playing fps games on 1440p

[remote kiln]

you're in the 0.5% of people who do esoteric things which don't apply by standard, so yeah it's fine

[peak zodiac]

when ima build a desktop ima get a desktop thats when i would consider playing on 1440p

[peak zodiac]

what 😭

what am i doin thats so crazy

[remote kiln]

switching to 1080p in shooters to maintain above 170 in shooters

the amount of people who would say something like that I can count on my fingers

[peak zodiac]

actually thats not true most ppl do that

well most ppl that care abt performance

[remote kiln]

I very much doubt "most" people do lol

[peak zodiac]

i can bet you most ppl that play on 1440p or higher are more casual players

[remote kiln]

no, they're the opposite

the higher the resolution, the more niche hardware configuration you have

1080p is about 50% of the global market

[peak zodiac]

are we talking about monitors with that res or that res being used?

[remote kiln]

?

[peak zodiac]

what do you exactly mean by this

[remote kiln]

the steam hardware survey lol

incase you're implying? that people will magically lower their resolutions, it tracks the currently actively used one on the monitor

[peak zodiac]

yeah was bouta ask that

[peak zodiac]

oke and now how many of those players on 1080p play fps games

[remote kiln]

that doesn't really matter lol

[peak zodiac]

probably more then 1440p and 4k

[remote kiln]

what are you saying people not playing shooters are casuals?

[vocal tusk]

Its a %, not a count...the genre doesnt matter

[peak zodiac]

well to me it does because i play fps games in 1080p and casual games in 1440p

[remote kiln]

ok and sorry to tell you but you don't need to play shooters to not be considered a "non casual"

[peak zodiac]

well im sure that there are non casual games and gamers outside fps

[vocal tusk]

This game is casual lol

[remote kiln]

bit of a weird description lol

and ^

dota/league/others literally invented the idea of competitive gaming

[peak zodiac]

you will have more tryhards in fps games then if you count all the other genres because there are so many

[remote kiln]

no, you wont

do you realise how big dota is? lol

[peak zodiac]

there are SO many games

[remote kiln]

...

[vocal tusk]

Youll have an equal number of try hards across all genres...again...its not a matter of the game...its the mindset of the player

[peak zodiac]

i dont think you need 170+ fps in dota and leauge

[remote kiln]

ok and what?

they literally invented the idea of esports

[vocal tusk]

lol...clearly you have no knowledge on these subjects haha

[peak zodiac]

and thats why people playing games like that would rather play in higher res

[vocal tusk]

I guess no player will want high FPS on CS either hehe

[peak zodiac]

tac fps

[remote kiln]

dude? 1080p is the most popular resolution for dota too?

what are you saying?

[vocal tusk]

they dont know

[remote kiln]

apparently

[vocal tusk]

Just say "Fair enough" like 20 messages ago and be done with it. All games have casual and sweaty players

[next onyx]

How many frames you're getting also tells you how well your hardware is dealing with the game.

[peak zodiac]

im not expecting my laptop push out 170 fps at 1440p lmfao

[vocal tusk]

Youve tried 1440p DLSS balance on 2042?

[next onyx]

It's possible though.

[remote kiln]

according to this standard super smash is the most casual game ever since it runs at 60 frames

[peak zodiac]

i can try

lemme see

[next onyx]

Dlss quality is nicer.

[peak zodiac]

toonink

[next onyx]

I want to get a card that can do DLAA at 120+ frames.

[vocal tusk]

Also you can enable rebar on 2042 for more frames...if you have a supported NV GPU.

[next onyx]

1440p DLAA be like yes.

[remote kiln]

just use model e is about all you need to do

[vocal tusk]

Quality is, but if you are GPU limited on a laptop, using balanced can give nicer image quality than 1080p...but similar ish FPS

I havent changed DLSS on 2042 TBH...do you need DLSS tweaks app to do it?

[remote kiln]

yeah you'll need DLSS tweaks to force the dll profile globally

select the global profile as e swap in the 3.7 dll it'll switch by itself

[vocal tusk]

You have a link to the app?

I am lazy lol

[remote kiln]

https://github.com/emoose/DLSSTweaks

beware* if you update the driver the global profile will reset similar to nvinspector

[peak zodiac]

134fps on 1440p quality

the game looks sexy like this

my laptop is just on the floor fighting for its life everyday

[vocal tusk]

A lenovo Legion?

[peak zodiac]

yessir

[quaint vector]

I'm gaming on Laptop as well..

[peak zodiac]

twinss

[vocal tusk]

You have optimus disabled?

[peak zodiac]

enabled would be just dgpu right?

i am using only my dgpu

[vocal tusk]

Or "Hybrid mode", whatever they call it.

[peak zodiac]

hybrid mode would be with igpu

i am on just dgpu

[vocal tusk]

Hybrid mode off would be forcing the NV GPU to be used

[peak zodiac]

yep

[vocal tusk]

But having it on also uses the dGPU....but passes it through the iGPU, which can significantly reduce performance

[kindred flint]

this whole time post ps5?

[quaint vector]

Yup

[peak zodiac]

i have to look back but i think i did a benchmark but it had like no difference but i always keep igpu off because i just know if i lose fps it wont be the igpu

[kindred flint]

this is impressive levels of sweatiness on a laptop, well done

[vocal tusk]

I also have a Legion 5, but I upgraded the RAM cos the stock stuff was crap.

But its not my main machine. I only use it when travelling for work

[quaint vector]

I do a lot of traveling, so gaming Laptop was my way to go and I don't regret it..

[vocal tusk]

Mine is the 5800H/3070 model.

[kindred flint]

if your hotel room has bad heating..just fire up 2042

[quaint vector]

[peak zodiac]

i used to have an legion 5 too great laptop i had a 3060 in it

i got a slim 5 rn

[peak zodiac]

i needed it for school and now i need it for my internship xD

[quaint vector]

But max it was on like 79°C when I "stress" tested it and it was very good. 👍

[kindred flint]

no additional cooling tray needed?

[quaint vector]

I don't have any cooling pad, so... no..

[kindred flint]

not bad

[quaint vector]

It was a bit pricy for Laptop, but hey.. I have what I needed..

[vocal tusk]

I paid 1049 EUR for my Legion 5 almost 2 years ago

[quaint vector]

Mine was 2 200+€

[quaint vector]

What specs it has.?

[peak zodiac]

my legion 5 could get upto 88c 😭

it was usually at 83

my current laptop is at 63

[vocal tusk]

Ryzen 7 5800H, RTX 3070, 16gb RAM, 512gb SSD

[peak zodiac]

my legion 5 was same specs just a 3060

[vocal tusk]

Its also the full fat 120W 3070...not the slower limited 80W version some laptops got

[quaint vector]

I have Ryzen 7 6800H, RTX 3070 ti, 16Gb Ram, 1Tb SSD

So, did I paid that much....

[vocal tusk]

I was going to get a 6800H...but it was the newer model...which was WAY more expensive...and the 6800H isnt really any faster than the 5800H in gaming

[peak zodiac]

my 4070 is at 80w and it only goes upto 110 if i stress test it 🥲

[quaint vector]

Rip me then

[vocal tusk]

You get what you pay for tho...and as long as youre happy, thats all that matters

[obtuse quiver]

Day 1 of asking them to fix briefcases in HZ. I know it won't happen probably because nobody is even working on HZ at this point... But man come on, at least remove the bugged ones from popping up on the HUD please. :<

[vocal tusk]

HZ is dead for a long time

Whole game will be soon. Might as well forget it. Open a forum post/support ticket is a better solution than posting about it here tho

[obtuse quiver]

I would but EA forums is flooded with people asking to fix it too. 🤣 It's a shame because it's honestly a really fun game, once you looked past the bugs and quirks of it.

[vocal tusk]

It has next to no replayability for me...due to the design and specialists. Only so many times one can get to extraction and find a dozer sitting behind a shield in the condor.

Would have at least been partially playable for me if they incorporated a ground loot system...but the meta gameplay aspect of it is too much to bare.

Plus system actually makes HZ worse IMO....its too flexible for such a game

[obtuse quiver]

Dozer is easy. RPG or throw some fire at his feet. Roasty toasty cockpit 😄

[vocal tusk]

Yes, but there is the issue. You HAVE TO bring these things...because of shitty meta gameplay design

there is no variety or sandbox element to the combat. You just end up haing the same fights over and over and over and over.

[next onyx]

If dozer wasn't a one hit kill I don't think that shit would be as essential to be honest.

[vocal tusk]

Yeah...or if his shield was like other gadgets and wasnt infinite health, impenetrable to a lot of things it shouldnt be

[next onyx]

Cause then there'd be proper counterplay. Hell you could increase his shield turn speed then.

Yeah that's bad either.

A health meter.

[obtuse quiver]

You got a point, I love the idea behind the game... With a few tweaks I do feel like it could be awesome, because the maps honestly are nice to play in, but ye, the meta is too unbalanced for a mode like that tbh 😅

[vocal tusk]

Remove specialists, have no special gadgets with all players on a level playing field...and with ground loot and HZ would have a lot of replayability. Good maps would also help

[naive ember]

New stadium maps

Stadiumfield

[vocal tusk]

Also...change how extraction works mid round. You shouldnt be extracting yourself...instead extract your loot.

Just copy/paste how the Division 1 extraction worked

[kindred flint]

dozer, mackay, sundance...all reasons to point to "the devs had no fucking clue what they were cooking"

[next onyx]

Archetypes should come back.

[naive ember]

Make VHX great again

[vocal tusk]

Its less that the devs had no idea what they were cooking...more the game designers had no consistent vision

2042 at launch was an inconsistent mess

[next onyx]

Honestly. I don't mind special gadgets the problem is is the lack of balancing.

[vocal tusk]

Like...who actually thought it was a good idea to have all specialists access all weapons and gadgets...but have CLEAR better picks than others

[next onyx]

I'd rather deal with a recon that is forced to run suppressed smgs and can interrogate you BFH style.

[kindred flint]

3x rechargeable nades-wingsuit that totally destroys map navigation
grapple hook that has way too much range and also invalidates verticality-faster ADS speed because thats not going to cause issues
1 shot capable melee attack, invulnerable shield
there were some really fundamental fuck ups

[vocal tusk]

Like...Oh ill just sit on a hill as Angel with a rocket and his infinite resupply crate. Cool in theory...terrible in practice

[obtuse quiver]

tbh, sounds a bit like Apex only some of them have gadgets that you can't just find on the ground.

[next onyx]

I wish I abused zain + emp before the class change.

[kindred flint]

peak 2042 teamplay was resupplying my squadmates with angel supply crate on the roof of C1 on renewal back in the day... no heli was safe for the entire match

[vocal tusk]

It had a lot of cool moments...but the gameplay and balance was just so fucked lol

Literally no gameplay readability or predictability

[kindred flint]

lmao holy shit terrible rubber banding in that server...cant even play the game

[vocal tusk]

which for a game like this...is terrible

[kindred flint]

well its not my internet this time at least, always fun to find these random fucking garbage servers

[next onyx]

Assault with ammo crate was funny.

Bad co 2 style.

God imagine if every fuck had the SPH.

That'd be tiring.

[vocal tusk]

In general...with what they had to work with...I think the people who re-designed the specialists into classes did a pretty good job.

Some specialists are now kinda terrible/useless (Angel/Boris)...but the overall game is better

[kindred flint]

seeing a content creator playing on redacted with angel....was a painful experience

[vocal tusk]

lol yeah...especially since that season added the pouches, which totally made him irrelivant

[next onyx]

Yeah they did really well with what they could.

[kindred flint]

oh he was actually running the health pouch, first time ive seen that icon

[next onyx]

I'm not gonna say bad job with what they could. Engineer just feels less polished but that's a result of the game not being built around it.

[kindred flint]

but like dude half your specialist kit is locked out on this map...

[next onyx]

Ammo packs are actually really helpful still.

I dunno

I just see ammo pack as assault and go monkey mode cause it gives me my med pen back.

[vocal tusk]

Just run Falck with them tho. Or an ammo crate...or anything

[next onyx]

Monkey

[vocal tusk]

I dont think ive seen a player run Angel in a LONG time

Ironic, considering he used to be meta for his armor

[next onyx]

Combine med pouches with angels ammo packs.

Make it so that it refills his gadgets.

So angel can work like a gadget medic.

Smoke launcher, claymore, etc.

[vocal tusk]

I kinda wished the pouches/boxes were he same gadget...working like irish ability does. Press 4 to equip > 4 again to toggle between pouch/crate

[kindred flint]

jesus christ teams are shit today

cant even fucking farm my scz kills because theyre so bad

[naive ember]

I love stadium

[kindred flint]

lmao i just experienced the good side of the terrible fucking spawn system in this game

we capped their first inside cap point..i spawned on it seconds later THE GAME PUTS ME ON THE ENEMY BASES SIDE OF THE FUCKING CAP

i spawn in looking at 10 peoples backs

ran out of scz mag, swap to pistol run out of that run away while being shot at...racked up at least a dozen kills in ~15 seconds

[ancient peak]

And now we are spawn locked on stadium with people literally killing us as we spawn in

This map...

[kindred flint]

hilariously bad....but you knew that when you can shoot from spawn to spawn inside great design guys

[ancient peak]

Horrendous.

I just want to get these captures and never touch it again.

[naive ember]

Shooting at someone earlier and his squad mate spawned behind him and took me out

Not supposed to happen

[lament plank]

God why is Arica harbour so one sided for the US to win

[frozen loom]

Arica Harbor is the worst map in the game.

It's just a race to see which side can pile on the most vehicles in the center objective.

[lament plank]

AA needs to be removed from. Literally watching US side AA sit untouchable on the hill shredding all game. Where as RU AA on the low ground gets instant killed once it spawns.

But I doubt anything will get changed in this game anymore

[frozen loom]

That map should have been vehicle-less like the metro map we just got.

[ivory canopy]

Arica in BC2 was a lot smaller, and the three objectives were very closely spaced.

Also iirc there weren't vehicles. Maybe I'm wrong. I know Rush mode had them; I'm talking conquest.

[mental delta]

Hope map design in BF6 is similar to previous BF

[ivory canopy]

You mean BF1?

[frozen loom]

I want the next BF to be in space and other planets against aliens.

Make it like a Mass Effect world.

[lament plank]

Wow. Amazing. Here I am as squad leader. Marking a point. Alert comes up to mark something or lose squad leader. I mark again. And again. And again. Timers up and I lose squad leader. Basic quality control has gone out the window at this point.

[woven sonnet]

idk usually works for me

doesnt matter it‘s just some extra xp

[granite island]

All maps shall be kaleidoscope

But without grass

[lament plank]

And yet it doesnt for me. Its not even about the experience. Its about core game functions barely working.

[granite island]

And 80% of the maps shall be covered in buildings you can't enter

[woven sonnet]

it bugged once in like 100 times i tried too bad world isnt ending man

[lament plank]

And yet, here I am, multiple games in a row with it. How fortunate that you arent experiencing these problems.

[woven sonnet]

idk I dont use it 99% of times

[woven sonnet]

Make a bug report on forum It‘s issues happen and this aint like game breaking

[orchid tusk]

it goes back to og '42. squak marking didn't work then either, or maybe it worked perfect, minds getting foggy

[ebon pilot]

i got accused of hacking again

[kindred flint]

thats what no recoil does to a person

[blissful flume]

WHEN IS UPDATE 7.2

[errant patio]

is there a specific hazard zone server

I'm sick and tired of the dumbfuck randoms I'm matched with

[karmic egret]

late this month

[mental delta]

Huh WTF bro ???

[late creek]

just got the game cuz of the sale and also just learned season 7 is the end KEKW

[blissful flume]

Season 7 is the end?

What does that mean

What will happen after the season ends

[late creek]

last season. theyre gonna work on the next BF i guess #game-news

[tidal trail]

Surprised EA didn't bother to use stadium to promote FiFA or something lol

Sounds like something they'd do

[late creek]

KEKW. i usually buy games 2-4 years late.
cant wait for all seasons 1-7 content to be only $5

[ebon pilot]

alright back to getting T1 on the vault weapons

my closest one is the P90 i guess

[frozen loom]

I'll never T1 a weapon.

[peak zealot]

stadium map is so funny cause u can js go full smoke grenades and stop a whole push

or js flank them super easily

[median vector]

Yeah took a lil getting used to lol

[acoustic seal]

i t1'd a handful of ARs before i realized dmr spamming is the intended way to play the game and i was completely wasting my time

[chrome hazel]

Ts is ass

Shits so inconsistent

[pearl ridge]

There isn't a single part of that map that is fun to fight in

The stadium interior is just two long corridors stacked on top of each other, the stands are incredibly exposed and will get you killed if you attempt to flank that way while someone is watching, and the outdoor plaza is nearly as bad, being so flat that snipers from both sides can pick you off without ever leaving spawn

And if you approach near the stadium entrance, you'll probably be shredded because the inside is in shadows and it's nearly impossible to actually see the enemy in there

[lunar galleon]

I feel you, accept I play BFV not 2042, but I think the maps are meant to be like that to give people a challenge

[naive ember]

That's what makes stadium so awesome

Best map in the game

Imagine if people stopped playing the other bf games and just played 2042

[lunar galleon]

They might if they could afford it XD

[pearl ridge]

I think the map would have worked much better if it took cues from Fort De Vaux and was arranged in a square pattern, using the stadium's field as a focal point with some kind of base erected there, and covered corridors leading to points inside the stadium's ring

Multiple lines of approach for the central points to allow consistent flanking opportunities and to prevent it from getting completely bogged down

[tulip lance]

guys after 7.2 the game will not continue update? it's totally wont update or they will only update balance, skins etc?

[naive quiver]

It won’t be any more season battle pass , however it will continue to have weekly missions or event / skins

[tulip lance]

thanks!

[woven sonnet]

aint now way you said this

[naive ember]

They forgot to build a Tom Brady statue

[proper seal]

hi

how can i report someone ?

for cheating in the game

[hazy viper]

esc, squads and players, click player, report

[proper seal]

i did it

but i feel its useless

if there is someone to talk to here

[quaint vector]

Its not useless

[quaint vector]

Noone would, as we don't deal with this on this Discord Server. Read the #500058972234055710 please.

[naive ember]

Honestly I played all day yesterday and didn't run into anu cheaters

[hazy viper]

I played yesterday for like 3 hours and while I am still a very poor player, I have really enjoyed it.
My team had medics who were reviving everybody. Then there were engineers smoking enemy a setting up barriers. Recon guys with those spotting devices and drones. Without comms, just a bunch of random guys doing their jobs. A rare experience, of course 😄
Must look into the LFG channel for some mature teammates 🙂

[untold flower]

@robust vapor @glacial quarry

average match with olga

[woven sonnet]

this dude be reporting everyone

[glacial quarry]

half of asia got reported by him already

record holder for most player reports in bf2042

[royal trail]

just noticed that theres no sound when using your defibs while having acw-r equipped

[deep pecan]

going into a game and see one mfker in a RAM going 40-0 is enough to quit

[woven sonnet]

i love stadium so much please dice dont remove the 24/7 stadium and don’t add redacted 24/7 back… I would not be enjoying myself at all

[naive ember]

^

Need my early morning redacted fix on BT

[willow sky]

no engineers is a wet dream for vehicle mains

[dusty sparrow]

🦆

[grizzled venture]

Guys is battle field 2042 really worth buying on steam rn? Is it any good?

[patent pivot]

How much do you care about quality

[grizzled venture]

I really don't care about quality that much more on the gameplay

[patent pivot]

Then sure

Go ahead

[grizzled venture]

Can I private dm u i have a question to ask that isn't related to battlefield 2042

[pearl ridge]

It's like 87% off, it's at least fun enough to justify ten dollars

[lean parrot]

yeah, the game play aint that bad. you aint paying full price for it so its definitely worth getting if you need something to play.

[naive ember]

You missed out big time when s6 content was king but 2042 still good

[grizzled venture]

I saw the hate comments on steam that's why I wanted to hear some thoughts here.

Or bad reviews I meant.

[vocal tusk]

It's worth 24.99 this late in the game full price, so it's definitely worth 7.99

If you like fps games, you'll enjoy it.

[charred widget]

I'm enjoying the new map. At first I was kinda confused by the layout, but I have been jumping into some conquest and I really like it. The map has a little bit of everything, which is nice. It's got open outdoors combat and indoors cramped environments, so there's quite a nice range of choice. But, this map makes me miss when the new version of hourglass was featured, I played so many breakthrough games on that map.

[vocal tusk]

It's spawns are pretty bad at times, and the outdoor flags have too many angles. But I like it more now than when I first played it.

[patent pivot]

mortar time

[exotic verge]

where yall at

[arctic grove]

Honestly? If you don’t already own it, I’d actually suggest V over 2042, it’s just a better game in general. I don’t think 2042 is worth it just because it’s cheap, granted you don’t have much to lose here

[exotic verge]

gamepass and u got both 😄

[arctic grove]

True

[exotic verge]

buy gamepass test both

[vocal tusk]

V has far worse casual gunplay IMHO.

[exotic verge]

see what u like more

[vocal tusk]

But combined arms interplay is better in V. Maps are also better. I still prefer 2042 tho.

[charred widget]

I jumped into 2042 about 6 months or so ago, have been playing it almost daily since then. I've been enjoying it alot. I hear a lot of complaints online but I was positively surprised how good it was when I finally tried it. I think it might depend what kind of player you are. I'm not very good at aiming (but getting there) I'm more of a strategic player that likes to think about how I can tip the game in my teams favour.

[arctic grove]

Isn’t that kind of what battlefield is about is combined arms interplay

[vocal tusk]

Not for all players, no. As a lot don't even touch vehicles tbh.

[exotic verge]

start learning to fly jets and helos and u will tip the game everytime

[grizzled venture]

Sure I'll purchase V instead

[vocal tusk]

2042 vehicle gameplay is more arcade, which makes it a bit more accessible imo. Also makes it worse than past games too, but it is what it is

[charred widget]

Wouldn't it be nice if they started featuring 2 maps at all times, for conquest and breakthrough. Maybe one more infantry focused and one more all out war focused. I really enjoy when they feature a map. I felt like they removed haven just when I started to like it. But at the same time, I really missed redacted.

[arctic grove]

True I see what you mean

[slow tulip]

Bf1

[vocal tusk]

Better still would be to add more modes with persistent server. Like Frontline had week 1.

[pine roost]

although I'm really glad they've done away with the straight stat buffs you get through vehicle progression. Starting with an innate disadvantage isn't a good time for anyone

[vocal tusk]

I just don't like tanks in this game tho. Hehe

[charred widget]

Overall, I think 2042 has the best loadout system. So many options, the fact that you can kit out your own edition of each vehicle. I feel like they didn't get enough cred for all the things they did with 2042

[pine roost]

that I can agree with

[charred widget]

Also love that I can equip any weapon with any character.

[pine roost]

honestly there's a fair bit it does well

[ebon pilot]

no loot boxes

[arctic grove]

I mean vehicle customization definitely isn’t unique to 2042

I think the open gun thingy or whatever is a bad move but there’s

Reason behind it I guess

[pine roost]

pros and cons

as with everything

[charred widget]

Sure, it's the first BF game I've played since bad company 2, so I probably missed when they first introduced it.

[vocal tusk]

This is where it was introduced

[charred widget]

But, either way, I think the amount of features and options in this game is staggering tbh.

[arctic grove]

What kept you away for so long

[pine roost]

there were definitely some blunders at launch, and I still can't forgive them for that, but what we have now is far improved

and I'm just concerned about what a 'reimagining' will be

[slow tulip]

Older games had a better loadout system. Guns were locked to classes. In bf2042 a sniper spawns as a heavy gunner

[charred widget]

I don't know, I guess life happened 🙂 And then they got some flak for battlefront 2 and various other things.

[vocal tusk]

Opinions are a thing.

[pine roost]

:0

[arctic grove]

The only reason it was different in 2042 was honestly cause there was nowhere near enough guns to justify locking them. Also the game had an audience that liked the lack of restrictions but I think that damaged how team and class roles should’ve worked

[charred widget]

And when bf2042 came out I was like - finally! since I loved 2142. But then It got lots of bad reviews, so I waited.

[slow tulip]

To cater that they have portal

[vocal tusk]

I doubt that's the reason. They also had all gadgets for all specialists too at launch.

[pine roost]

the lack of guns was most likely a big reason why, but for the most part it was just because it aligned with their initial game design approach

and it's stuck around as they shift other elements of the game into a more refined vision

[arctic grove]

Yeah true. I come at it from that angle since gadgets did get locked eventually but not guns

[arctic grove]

Nah it’s fine I’m just kidding

[vocal tusk]

I think it stayed because changing it 1.5 years into the game would have been too much of an adjustment for existing active players.

[arctic grove]

In all fairness people definitely wanted that adjustment for the most part, and plus there were other overhauls anyway

[pine roost]

well they added classes several years after launch, they had the capacity to
