Eid Mubarak to all my brothers and sisters!
i always forget that you cant lay down and standup and shoot in this game
Am I just getting shittier, or I feel like sniping is weird in this game compared to the others.
I don't get sniped too often
Idk I feel like Im either overshooting or undershooting moving targets compared to how Im used to being comfortable with.
maybe Im just shitty now but I dont remember struggling with moving targets
Despite shooting around an area im used to making distance shots
good days vs bad days + overthinking is ur downfall i feel like
too relateable
Maybe dpi is also affecting it but idk
your overthinking it even more now
Unless you are in the far extremes, dpi won’t be an issue
yap
Nvm found the issue
I just cant use a X8 lmao
I swapped to my x6 and it felt better
it's probably your coefficient
coefficient and/or ads sens for scopes
we need a throwing knife game mode in this game ngl shits mad fun
figures
100% just used to a x6
When I was using a X8 I felt like despite being on target it was missing.
No.
why not
idk lol ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Fucks sake can we like have a limit to stop people from matchmaking into matches that are already over
Like, on the scoreboard over
It ain't over until it's over 
...when it´s done.
Did I just jumped out of my jet to headshot another jet pilot to steal his jet.? 
With M44 Magnum tho
Did you?
Yup 
proofs?!
I'll send the clip later, i have to edit it first
I'll do it now... 
I just made screenshot from it...
I'm that dumb...

now we'll never see it 

It was even my Tier 1 jet to enemy Tier 1 jet...
Fuuuuuu
Only a screenshot...

Time to do it again...
I'm so mad right now that I just want to shut my PC down and do absolutely nothing today....
rip windows
quick star it
I don't get it can you explain what happened
Probably pressed the screenshot hotkey, instead of save instant replay hotkey
Yup...
Can't manage to do it again tho... Every pilot on the enemy team is just straight dumb and never gets behind me so I just end up killing them with my Jet..
Is it a precision kill if I control the missile?
what magnetization scope starts to make glints btw?
5x and above
ty
are servers down?
theyre upside down
i cant connect to EA app on pc at all
Same for me, I think servers are down unfortunately
aslong as it isnt just me
And?
Yeah I’m getting that too
Ik there’s maintenance for bf1 but bf4 and 2042 isn’t working either lmaoo
Not working for me 🥹
i guess we just wait 
2042 servers down?
ty
Can't connect
"The app timed out
The servers took too long to do their server thing. Make sure you're connected to the internet, and try again."
Cant connect here in canada as of around 615 est
Some people didnt get disconnected
Any pc experts in the chat?
Any ps4 squads doing conquest?
Yea the people still logged in are playing mostly AI lol
i installed 2042 again after 6 months, any new weapons i should try?
2042 up yet?
back to ol faithful... bsv and g57
More like vault guns keke
its up
are vault guns good?
P90, aks-74, m16a3, ebr, gol magnum-- all cool
did they finally let you customize them
interesting
Some still are a bit lacking, especially in the muzzle department. M416 & AKS74U especially.
I quite like the AEK, RPK-74M, M39 and the AKS74U alot 🙂
If an attachment isn't on it assume issues in regards to implementation of them.
You given the m16 a go torbis?
M16 is phenomenal, I do wish it had more red-dots though!
But the gun can go nuts
A-91 is pretty average, it works.
A lot sleep on the M60 and the M240B though
Too bad ammo types aren't available
I've got like almost 15K kills with it. It's such a good gun.
Awesome, i'm a big AEK enjoyer
RPK too though, i wish it had a tinyyyy 4btk at like maybe 5-10m tho 😭
I still need my G3 in AoW though... DICE PLS
Any decent 1942 servers
M60 just needs more max damage range. M240B is not sleep on.
Are the servers back up?
where can I find people to fly helis with
it's gonna be a whole show of me trying to figure out how a pc works
does nvidia geforce rtx 3050 and intel core i5-12400f can run battlefield 2042?
like without problems?
Works for me on 1060 lol
RTX 3050 is bad graphics card tho
Even compared to 1000 series?
I think so
Lmao
RTX 3050 is 4gb card that can't really do RTX on playable experience
I thought 3000 series were 8+gb lmao, I have 6gb I think
Yeah but RTX 3050 is mainly laptop GPU if I'm correct.. 
I have RTX 3070 ti which is 8Gb card

Not true, but I can make it happen..
no pls windows no
3050 is about the same speed as a GTX 1080, but with DLSS support.
it doesn't have enough VRAM to use DLSS in games anyways
1070/1080 are strictly better because they don't engage main memory
Okey, I did the M44 Headshot Jet swap again... Made sure I have the clip saved and will post it in a while.. 
At least you were able to get it again.
There it is.. 

Anyone know how to have both BF2042 and the new version of MW3 installed together on a 399.99 GB ps4?
anyone else experiencing Draugr zoom bug that is similar to the Lis bug? when i respawn i am half way in the ground. lol What is the workaround?
Can that not fit both? 2042 was around 80 last time I checked
I think your problem is wanting to install mwIII
CoD is way too big man

What they do in that game is a turn off also
It's pathetic and rather get my fps fix in 2042
No one playing XL Rush 
Nice it's back
Because we prefer 64 over 128

Still baffled me why they're so scared of 64
yeah but i also play the whole of MWII aswell
well that's not 320 GB is it
They're not and you know they're not
The last, what 4 maps have been 64 player max
128 got cucked by last gen
Last gen needs to get left in the dust by next release
then so what? make 64 available for those 4 maps only
Man didn't even read what I said
There is also a locked Conquest 64 playlist that's been there for about two whole seasons
Maybe more
im talking about rush, not conq and bt
What kind of launcher
Probably means the SRAW /s
why 128 when one can do 80 
I took a long break from BF 2042, then I saw they remove the 40mm for the wildcat tank… god damn
I’m gonna miss using the 40mm for the wildcat tank
They're doing everything to force Wildcats to actually play as AA, except for making them good
Well they always put me in tje noob team, ffs
all they'd need to make them good is actually give them APS
as it stands one good attack heli team can smoke a wildcat solo because you can't counter any of it
it kills you faster than AA cannons can tickle it to death
I dont think its a massive issue that such a thing can happen. 9/10 the AA will kill the heli. You need insane teamwork to kill the wildcat first, especially since the TOW nerf
Wildcat would be too OP with APS. Air vehicles would just not be able to do anything to it
it's not actually too hard if the heli has lots of cover it can use to get the jump
Imagine how much more annoying AA campers would be if they are given APS lol
i honestly don't encounter annoying AA campers that often
plus they're easy targets for tanks that can move around
Same, but given the tools to more effectively camp, it will become worse. APS on AA is just a bad idea.
maybe if they had tools to move around they wouldn't camp so much
IMO only frontline vehicles should have APS. APS should not become a crutch for defence/balance
i want to be a mobile wildcat but it kinda fuckin sucks when a rocket hits me from a heli i didn't notice between the buildings and the trees so i can't turn around to defend myself
so i end up just jumping out and shooting a rocket
auto repair is deleted by any damage
why would you stand next to a vehicle getting bombarded by rockets
Dm me to join a battlefield tournament server
_ _
Is it just me or are the Asian servers so dead in bf2042
Why can’t we just switch regions???
it would be really funny to t1 the pondhawk
*Really Easy
Just place a spotting device and fly around to T1 it
Wildcat with 40mm and AT missiles was an absolute beast of a tank-killer, RIP
Auto repair is fine.
Yeah, Wildcat has become much, much more specialized with the "after RAM change" you're talking about. It's hard to get a hold of a RAM, too. It's a queue clicker, which is the #1 thing I loathe in all of Battlefield (followed by forced squad mechanics that are too loose, and not needed in my opinion.)
*really cheesy, as well
can you believe they are getting 25$ for 2 specialist skins, 2 vehicle skins, 2 weapon skins, 2 charms, a background, and a tag?
Can we pander any MORE? Why not?
I’m more pissed off if only they didn’t remove the 40mm for the wildcat tank
@white geyser
The fuck is wrong with you?
What
Why are you asking all of us about connecting EA account?
Do you even realize not all of us have Xbox?
Me neither i am on pc
I don't know if it can be done or not.https://help.ea.com/en/help/account/link-your-console-accounts/
you probably have to login to your EA app and see if you can change the associated username
that would be my guess, no clue, and i don't care enough to troubleshoot your problem honestly
my biggest sadness was when they removed 40mm from the LATV4
still have it on that stupid hovercraft
My dumb question of the day is whether its possible to see where the threshholds for percentages are on BFtracker
I'm trying to get to top .1% of road kills, I've been at .2 for a while
i know 😦
just wish it was possible to know if I need 100 kills, or 1000 lol
too polite of you
maybe so but I tend to err on the side of caution
yeah, probably took like 40 seconds lol
probably less. i looked in ea app options first and saw a linked accounts option, then opened up xbox and in settings was the link
but i bill by the hour only
no fractions. its how ive been instructed.
lol
So that was 15 minutes then, got it
ive just been doing the soflam, but a tugs might work
quite risky to put down a tugs
How is it risky
Tugs is arguably the best gadget in the game
Pair it with blasco, and you’re golden
Get your buddy to do the dropping and stuff 😉
ohhhh shit
Literally you get so many points even being dead with your tacs in good spots
CQC is amazing for Blasco with tugs
Should I turn off image scaling on my geforce to improve imput response? I have rendering frames off on the game settings. But maybe it could save me a split second if I leave the navida image scaling off?
Probably if your performance is being affected, try it off and see how different it is
What does task manager say
For your usage and such
NIS is extremely bad, never turn it on unless you are using dldsr
turn it off globally, it introduces a separate processing requirement in game pipelines which they aren't compatible with
I'm not running anything rn.
Of course @remote kiln comes in with a cape and answers with such grace. Lol
for input response if you are using gsync then vsync needs to be engaged to on in the Nvidia control panel, if not then vsync should be off, max frame rate engaged at 2/3 frames under the monitor cap with low latency mode on (this doesn't do anything in games which use reflex, it's there if it doesn't)
and ingame you need future frame rendering off, reflex on, dsr/vsync off, if you intend to use DLSS replace the dll inside the folder first then proceed from there
not in a state that the game is booted, they only apply on restart of a exe
I don't have DLSS unfortunately my setup isn't equipped. Only gtx 1650ti. But I'm definitely gonna test your suggestions out. Because I'm tired of my opponents running away with 1% health. And I know it's because they are a split second faster.
just be aware some of those changes are for absolute minimum response times, that can compromise performance, that card is extremely weak so it may introduce issues in the process, random hitching, or others similar
if the framerate dies re-engage future frame rendering and dsr, but there's not much you can do to save the card
Yeah I usually play on low settings because my gpu is old Gen. And I also run 720p usually. I could do 1080. But response and frames is my main concern.
you can't solve the second
the first you can, sort of, but that's tied to your framerate
so they go hand in hand
True
thats seriously impressive you can even get that thing to run it. my 1070 just wouldn't even run after season 5 update
there's nothing stopping you from booting the game unless you have a card from Maxwell or some other ancient card
running it well, is a different story
no not 15 minutes for sure, maybe 20-30 seconds
yeah it would run some, but it started crashing a lot too after that update if I remember correctly. thats been well over a year i think now
could be any number of things
Yeah I've been messing with it for awhile now. A couple years. But it's no super computer running 8k. But I can game bf2042, Xdefiant and other shooters as long as it's low settings on 720p. Around 40 to 80ms. Not to shabby. Extreme budget though. Lol 😆
probably so
Very concerned at the fact that people are way more focused on KD in conquest mode and frankly just going through past Battlefield footage since 1942, it shows way more in how people use squads less unless with actual real-life friends
I'd love to see you get 1/4 of the points for kills unless on points, and just a generalized increase in points for playing the objective/missions requiring objective play
"players want to focus on that (personal kills, assists, revives, deaths, etc) so we should let them do it here in conquest" isn't the right response for the generalized deviation from what conquest really should be.
if that's the case then make TDM modes more prominent and a proper outlet for players to play the game differently that doesn't straight affect those trying to play Conquest
just my 2c from someone whose played since 1942 and helped develop "stuff" before.
its a casual sandbox shooter, its not that serious
yeah i'd like similar scoreboard updates
its as serious as any video game, unless you are speaking of like paid competition (do those still exist even? seems like that was just a thing for a short while)
but its not.. theres not even sbmm let alone ranked, youre one of either 64 or 128 players in a match where you essentially have a random chance to get a vehicle that could increase your effectiveness tenfold
nothing about bf in any of its major game modes is serious
and this is coming from a sweat that has been in probably the 2 biggest clans for bf and played in small/medium sized matches/scrims
but its still just as serious I say
by any sort of metric that would determine an fps game being serious, no
lol
no ranked, no sbmm, sandbox shooter, one of 64 or 128..
randomly getting a vehicle that just makes you WAY more effective...
they could do a ton of things differently that I'd prefer but rankings are extremely low on my wishlist for adding "seriousness"
literally none of those aspects are indicative of a serious fps
what are you defining as serious?
I'm just saying comments like "it's a casual shooter" kill this franchise
it's not a competitive shooter but that whole fallacy 'well who cares' stuff is kinda why this was 2/10 on steam/reviews
maybe you are meaning the small extra modes (that admittedly could be much more like other fps to which you compare) and the big modes of "combined arms" could also be made differently more to my taste but its 100% more serious than any other shooter in my opinion. I think you are confusing competitive features with seriousness which is subjective.
outside of the milsim aspects theres absolutely nothing "serious" about it
it's not a casual shooter to a small group of people, it's a casual shooter to you
I remember plenty of times in 1942/2 where TWL/CAL/etc were playing games of it with select rulesets; in 2, you had a client just for competitive.
what's happening is this game/franchise is becoming homogenized and kinda c-tier compared to other shooters that are reinventing or innovating the genre a bit outside of just game modes.
I just finished a game and literally half the game was just people sitting on a stairwell shooting the opposite team not even trying to push. That's basically because the game encourages gameplay like that now and even broadcasts constantly "100 ASSIST" etc drivel just so you feel like you're doing shit
and i just can't seriously compare any shooter without vehicles being a major component in the same category
absolutely not the reason it has bad "reviews"...
also not saying "who cares" in general, but the whole idea that its anything more than a casual shooter so things like people caring about their kdr is a "who cares"
that last sentence is hard to understand
yeah I said my piece
I'll be sure if I ever do test the game to write the same stuff :3
the game can have vehicles and still have competitive modes, fyi. My main complaint is the game is catering/becoming more like call of duty in all game modes and not just letting a few game modes emulate that playstyle
operators was a good example of the franchise just trying to apply already existing stuff to the wrong franchises/subgenre (should have made a game like "Battlefield Legends" or some stuff with operators, not a main title.)
lol the cod comparison
sadly rinaun is twisting what im saying and to clarify is hard
ffs i thought your pfp looked familiar, youre the guy who clinged onto that you apparently tested a game before and try to drop that every chance you get to try to validate your weird takes
i mean.. in terms of fps and how "serious" they are in anything OTHER than tone would be its competitiveness, which is universally agreed upon to consist of features like ranked, sbmm and impactful gameplay.. those 3 things dinstinctly lacking in bf titles since ever
the only thing bothering me right now is work, if youre suggesting your weird perspectives and self proclaimed importance has any tangible effect on me then good luck with that
lol aight man have a good day
you too
impactful gameplay could be scored differently on the board for sure
I mean they've just dumbed the franchise down way too much then wonder why every step of development people don't like the game
the fact you can't swap teams because they know the skillgap is so large and don't wanna bake in proper matchmaking
or more importantly, the game is too shaky to support a diverse matchmaking in general
(because of bad choices like above)
all I'm saying is I went to revisit 2042 and if future products are anything like 2042, IE just ripping off stale mechanics and forcing battlefront-level skill competency, the franchise is pretty much dead and newer games will make this free to play so quickly
How do you do matchmaking with no sbmm… how do you even give a rating for a game like this?
I think making the next game by default more competitive, more aligned to BF2 where the matches/combat isn't insanely fast (bro K30 up close is just like what? it's so hilarious) and focused more on assets such as commander/etc is a good idea and moving all this other stuff to say Bad Company which is already a well-loved console title/subgenre in the battlefield franchise.
you can easily do matchmaking based on how competent the player is
Idk if easily is the right word
I'd rather have someone 5-10 every game playing the point than someone 20-4 sitting in spawn sniping
People complain about sbmm in smaller tighter fps games all the time.
it's genuinely not hard it just requires you keep the formulas pretty private (so as to not encourage padding/etc) and since EA has decided "fuck community servers" for the large part, keeping track of stuff isn't too hard
but overall it's not hard plenty of games do it
I think there are way more factors to consider than you understand
matchmaking with no sbmm is easy.
step 1. select all compatible players based on queue, ping, region, etc.
step 2. select a group of said players, keeping parties together, make a match.
it's literally just... don't account for skill
sure you're right but I mean I don't know why you are taking the base concept and trying to pull it apart like string cheese
matchmaking exists
its not hard
other shooters do it
And still have complaints and they don’t allow you to randomly select a vehicle
if you want to argue it's not easy, that's fine, but I have personal experience working in that field and I can tell you doing ELO/MMR stuff for most games isn't hard
in most games there's exactly one objective and one way to approach it. battlefield is kinda special in that you can have an extremely high impact on the match without getting a lot of kills and without capturing objectives
I mean I’ve only seen the most hardcore comp titles do it right, and that’s with everything accounted for
That was rhetorical, I was suggesting you can’t have a good matchmaking system without sbmm
it's just they don't want to incorporate it because A) money B) it's more overhead and C) it turns casuals off to know their level compared to the general curve
and also lastly it makes the game more salty
what's 2042's matchmaking then
Ping based…
is it?
it genuinely seems like it because I'll play with friends and stomp because 4 good players can really carry one objective
then I go play solo and every single game
is a loss
I highly doubt it’s win rate based.. because that would equal out and be even for everyone.
but then I look at my w/l rate and it's near 50%
Mine is 56% and I’m solo
I think it genuinely just throws you to what is AVAILABLE first
mine is 61% and i play solo 95% of the time
and if it say ever became FULL
it would start doing actual win-rate/whatever MMR
the problem with 2042 and future titles is common with FPS games and frankly a lot of online games
they charge for the base game which has benefits, but the downside is a slower growth of a userbase/matchmaking system, that is VERY VERY STRONGLY TIED TO MARKETING OR FRANCHISE HYPE
so with games like 2042, they sold actually decently
but flopped hard and then the user experience plummeted
because the game was really designed to have full lobbies, in each region, with proper distribution of skill/etc
say you get stomped...........you just leave mid-match and get into a new map, new team, etc easily
(this happened for 1-2 months on launch)
now? good luck, you're getting in the same fucking lobby, same team unless you wanna wait in matchmaking for 5-10
and this is with regions being pretty fucking wide, encompassing console gamers too
if you turn off crossplay LOL
it's because the franchise got dumb ala battlefront, turned off the hardcore power users (especially shutting down mod support on any front), and now they're moving to harder shooters while looking back going "damn this is rough but it's not that cod clone game I once loved"
and I know this because I hang with people who legitimately won't play the franchise because of how much rainbow six call of duty armor stuffing crap that goes on now, and they played every other battlefield plus play current other shooters (tarkov/grayzone/squad/HLL/etc)
theres still plenty of hardcore servers fully populated in portal, though admittedly they are generally mostly European
damn in bf4 youd get tons of free xp boosters like sticks of gum.
2042 gives you nothing
doesn't dice usually do that whenever a game goes into the final 'dead game' stage of its life
like they did with both battlefronts as well??
Hello. I managed to figure out something new that may invalidate prior findings.
It was discovered that if you have unclaimed In-Game Items on Steam (i.e. Paid Inventory Items)—particularly those awarded through DLC purchases, that only become fully owned the next time one launches a game to claim them (See Unturned Gold DLC item set)—it appears to cause Battlefield 2042 to hang for too long when Connecting to Online Services on startup, and fail to consistently do first-time launches through Steam.
Check up on your old games from time to time. Maybe it could tie up loose ends in the Steam backend that strangely affect this game, too.
I kinda miss the launch hovercraft
question, well 2
1: did they finally fix the EA anti cheat maxing out CPU/RAM issues?
- will the 2142 bundle still be up in the store?
- yes
- what bundle?
the bundle from the last event
inspired from 2142 battlefield
"future strike"
hopfully i can still buy the cosmetics lol
i sadly couldent even play the event cuz this stupid EA anti cheat maxing out my PC
nope those bundles are gone
4 new bundles tho have come since then
Hi
not really 😛
I really really really really hope they switch shit up in the next iteration of battlefield or else this is gonna be a press slaughterhouse
just playing 2042 is outright depressing where the game is at
I'm in games right now that genuinely feel like I'm playing battlefront reskinned and there is no skill involved in any choices unless we goon in a 4stack and smash a server

I mean the vehicles are locked down and frankly people just sit waiting for them, even the people I've given keys to recently said "how do I unlock vehicles"
I just feel the overall game mechanics are like a shitty off-brand clone of call of duty, and that's maybe why people didn't buy into it alongside the operators
..?
Because the original game idea was far worse.
And scrapped altogether on launch
I'm aware
people didn't buy into it because it was broken at launch lol
they did, though
did you miss the 7 seasons of development this game has
because it's not the same as it was in beta
it's not that much different than it has been since launch, they just toned down a lot of the operator stuff because of how hard people pushed against them
dude what
are you smoking
you can't even play the same maps as you could at launch
you act like this is squad and the entire game got revamped
they're entirely different
the game is also how many years old? they had to support it because they sold a battlepass season baked into the game
sorry to break it to you but that's exactly what happened lol
and no, they didnt
they only had to support up to season 4
they did 3 after anyways
I mean to be fair, EA doesn't have to release a new battlefield and can just lifesupport the product
This one last the longest compared to previous

this game at launch literally was written off as unrecoverable
you saying it's anywhere like launch is a alternative reality
because it was, because every single person who played that shit in even the beta knew it was just trying to copy various shooters to keep up
no the game is still pretty bad
I mean I have to literally hand keys out
to get friends to play this
its never been a good game
ok?
so it's mildly better after millions of dollars, two years, and them begging the community for forgiveness
my point is maybe they should keep the cod clone shit to a new offshoot series or bad company or something and bring back a more competitive format of battlefield, where it focuses way more on team gameplay and not just joining servers you can't even swap teams to
there has never been a "competitive form" of battlefield
for over a decade
not sure what you're saying
ok? that's my point
after 3 they just gave the fuck up
they didn't even help the community in 4 for that
tried in 1/5 to bring it back
don't know your history I'm afraid
eSports, came from battlefield 4, not 3
that's where it originated from
TWL carried over from 2
it was never in 3
TWL and CAL did 2 and even 1942
nothing matters until it's sanctioned by dice
really? pretty sure I have a trophy from HP right here
🤡
that's Hewlett Packard my dude
not HPFUNINC
right lol
I got my start from them finding me in that shit my dude
I don't find your reputation that so called trustworthy since you just said 3 had a competitive mode, so consider me a cynic
nevermind what you said about this game
all I'm saying is if they had a more competitive version of battlefield, it would be a better foil for smaller subfranchise releases
they've literally blown the entire bottom out on braindead gameplay
no it would be a failure lol
why do you think they abandoned it in 4
cause nobody cared
they abandoned it in 4 because 4 had so many issues on launch it involved a law suit
so.....
4 was absolutely a PR nightmare
and because nobody gave a shit about it
nobody, cared, about the competitive aspect
or any of the competitive modes
funny enough there was more of a reason to sue for 2042 but EA's legal is ironclad since 4
lell
commander mode, nobody gave a shit, the competitions, nobody gave a shit about either
using 4s launch is a cope argument
because EA can't balance shit due to never having a competitive scene in that regard
but
now respawn
yes
EA, had competitive franchises, eons before apex legends
do you not realize they work for the same publisher and have already been publicly linked to doing stuff for that franchise?
you are actually in a different universe
no, EA had no significant/relevant esports compared to other shooters really ever
right we don't talk about it cause it doesn't suit your argument
stop this cope
fifa is like 80% of EA
the fuck are you high
lol
go look up EA revenue
then go look up Fifa ea revenue
fine we'll have it your way since you want to keep on this cope train, did you miss madden aswell
this is why talking about fifa competitive is useless, it's a different franchise, a different sport, and way way way way way way larger
not sure, does madden have a card system?
LOL
hahaha
yeah good ones because those games actually had them lol
but continue on that the algs is apparently ea's first competitive game
by a studio, who have nothing to do with battlefield either
your reputation again isn't that great
soon as you said 3 had a competitive mode you sunk your cred
ok calm down I just came to say I hope they do something good with the franchise and listen to feedback
I hope you have a good day buddy
pz!
u2

Is the SRAW any good relative to the others
Can anybody give me some insight on a goated Smg setup I mainly use Ar’s and i need to excel in CQB some more
nope
shame I have to go to the portal for hardcore matches, regular matches arent as good imho
hardcore is one of the worst modes ever conceived
nope lmao
I dont care to shoot someone 3 times with a sniper or a vehicle that heals itself without repair tools
but you don't need to shoot someone three times with a sniper
it's a oneshot
you just need to aim
getting oneshot by a sneeze across the map is not fun any way you slice it
shoot rpg, damage tank, tank heals, shoot again, rinse repeat
the game's mechanics are not inducive to a hardcore experience
right so in essence you want to solo it
and vehicle balance is even more whack in hardcore
isn't that the opposite of what hardcore is meant to be?
explosives feel like they actually do what they're meant to I feel like 🙂
Yeah man rush xl proves that
Knife imo
Its meeeeee..
Hey is it just me or am I no longer able to put skins and charms on my vault guns?
Charms were not even the option for Vault Weapons.. 
Well even still
It won’t let me apply skins
The standard 2042 guns are fine
But the vault guns are stuck with the skins I put on them
I can’t change them
no, nothing can sink his cred because he did "testing" for a game once
/s
i used to think that some day people would stop hating on cod as a personality, but then i realized there are new 15 year olds every day...
but then realized there are grown men that still keep that personality, and then im just sad
Yo
howdy
howdy
have anyone here experiencing issue while launching the game
I tried to launch the game multiple times, but it waits for the EA launcher
then nothign happens
everytime I should restart the laptop in order to fix the issue. Does anyone have solution to this fucking EA launcher?
EA launcher is just bad, task killing it fixes it for me but Idk about your case
Anyone wanna join me tomorrow on bf2042?

How come my cpu goes to 100 when I play 2042? Even just running on the main menu or even ready to que in it barely goes to 20% but as soon as I hit them lobbies. Boom! 90-99 on the cpu. Hadn't really had this problem before. Any guesses? I played Xdefiant and it was ok around 60-70%.
because 2042 is cpu intensive
Kinda crazy. Other games don't use half as much. But it is Dice. Lol
not a lot of games are large scale combined armed war games either..
you dont have to like the game by any means, but to be oblivious to the technical powerhouse bf titles are is another thing
Lf chill people to play

It's because of how big the maps and player count are
very likely contributing factors
the game does a lot, people thinking it should run as good as something like cod which does MUCH less are confusing
Does anyone know if we will get the GOL sniper skin from crimson front available in the store again?
Well now I'm done.
to be fair cod has been in the shitter for a while now
people are acting like bo6 is going to be something revolutionary but it's just the same stuff with a 300gb filesize
People hate on cod because it is the capeshit of videogames.
People hate cod for it's marketing practices.
Play for me plox
Where do I look for groups for Breakthrough 2042?
moment before disaster
Literally a skill issue on your side 
Thanks
Has AK5C been nerfed?
I am struggling to kill with it. Could be my hands, ofc, but felt like asking 😄
No 
what
He said it could be his hands bud
he got hands?
cringe
will there be a special event for tomorrows midsummer?
Nothing I'm aware of... 
aight
Brutal expectations


What's wrong with this game? Every time I try to spawn in a jet it shows underground and I can't see a thing. Even after a redeploy it keeps happening.
it just works 
Hey guys 👋 maybe someone can help me with that , I have i9 14kf and I install battlefield 2042 and in the beginning it's work perfect but before a few days it's just crush me after I start the game and it's close it completely I try install agin , try repair but nothing help also I have rtx 4080 anyone have any solution for this?🙏🙏🙏
its most likely processor instability, make sure you have your bios updated and are using intel default profiles
they have suffered from degradation problems
Thanks for answering 🙏 I update the bios but how to do it using Intel?
It's will fix it for sure?
no its not guaranteed to fix it because it may not be the problem, its just a potential source
Ok
it depends on your board vendor, go look at their documentation for how they have enacted the intel baseline profile
Okay thanks 👍🙏

Niccely done!
R.i.p Battlefield 2009-2024
2009?
Oh I saw something like that when I was doing a bot match. Entering any vehicle, including Crawford’s turret, did that shit to me.
No bloody idea as to the cause of it
just ignore the previous 7 years of bf...
Bf2042 is fun 4 me
gud
Make sure you must preorder next battlefield ok 👌
I don’t buy games that just come out yk
Cuz there’s prices are…stupid
games have been 60 bucks for decades.. and 50+ for several decades
they havent even increased prices to account for inflation.. let alone wage increase, cost in production/complexity of games, and marketting..
not entirely sure how prices are stupid
a $70 pricetag makes me reconsider buying a game. Especially when AAA games are less reliably good than ever
traditional dlc is not a thing anymore though, you dont have to buy map packs or any major content anymore, the only sort of dlc/mtx you typically have to pay for (at least in mp games), is for shit like cosmetics, which is perfectly fine
stealth mode helis 🤮
The microtransactions make me even less likely to take the deal because I know that in a few months the game will be turned into clown world for money
Call of Duty, for example, is advertising this game set in the 90s. But why would I buy that if I know that they will throw in space marines or some stupid shit by season 3?
season 0
MM yes thank you for putting a tree spirit in my game about the gulf war. This way I can get 1 map for free.
if breaking the immersion is one aspect you dont want in the title and thats enough to not buy the game then dont. i personally think thats a bit of a weird prioritization in a game where the main point is to shoot other people
I simply want a good product
if anime girls running around means i get the most up to date games at the sameish price they have been for 30 years WITH free maps and weapons now, sounds like a fucking deal to me
(you know, assuming the gameplay itself is something i want)
What is the value of being up to date?
The gameplay is rarely better than the older products and the skins undercut any graphical improvements.
Im not interested in an uglier product that takes more space on my hard drive and runs worse on my hardware to provide the same or worse gameplay for a higher price.
value depends on the person, mechanical progress, graphics, features, etc
there are upgrades or changes to be had, if they matter to you is another thing
ive not bought a cod game since blops 2, and that was used.. the last time i directly gave activision money for a cod title was mw2.. the first mw2.. so i have actively not valued the upgrades/changes cod has done since then
i dont get this urge people have to either still buy the games, or not buy the games but complain like they are the victims of the circumstances
consumerism
consumerism means you buy the product or not, thats it
its in the creators best interest to provide what the consumer wants, but in the end as the consumer you either buy it or not
consumerism is a culture surrounding consuming products for their own sake. People become attached to a product as part of their identity and turn hype into a passtime.
i call that a personal problem and a fucked up priority of ones life
to provide what the consumer wants
If only this were true. But marketing can be deceptive and whales are a minority with disproportionate sway. There are many ways to make more money with worse products
One which is far too common
Does anyone else have friends that talk to them daily?
or is it normal for them to not text you at all
me and my friends sometimes go months without talking
is that actually normal though?, like for everyone to ignore you?
oh they're not ignoring me i just have a hard time reaching out
so when we do talk it's because they came to me
sam brother
same*
I don’t have friends
i think it can be a guy thing to just not talk to people for a while
me
Coming through! 🚁💥🗡️ #BattlefieldHighlights
Be sure to send us your epic gameplay moments from the #Battlefield for a chance to be featured next! 🏆
would say normal
Like nyphon said as well
Try to plan some dates for a game night/day to have some interaction or something
Depends how we look at "Friends" is it friends you do things with all the time or just some friends you speak online and play a game with every now and then
Like I have a friend I speak with every 4 months besides that that's all
So
Did 2042 add new original guns with these battlepasses
Yes.
The weapons we got are a mix of previous gen arms (desert eagle, g36c) and a lot of present arms (RM277, AM14, RPL 20, EVOLYS, Alien, etc)
There is a great selection of guns imo
It ‘was’ a a friend irl
is it really they stop making any update or they are making ?
also small tip for anyone lagging on nvidia gpus
on the nvidia control panel turn on "threaded performance"
legit fixed all my lag issues
super happy
u mean the threaded optimization
are any EA servers down for 2042 currently?
Shouldn't be.
same lol
We will fix global warming before EA fixes their damn app
I'll look into this. I haven't really messed with any of the settings.
A driver rollback fixed my performance problems
Also a good try
In that case since they are both a myth, I guess never.
What does that mean? Did EA kick you?
Found a quick fix:
Turn Steam to offline mode,
Launch BF2042
Change back to online mode after the game successfully launched
i cannot log into my ea account at all
but it works just fine on the website, im having some horrible app prob
Maybe try removing the app and re-install?
^
I'm having the same problem
I haven't logged in this morning, but it was working just fine around 3 or 4 yesterday afternoon.
im sure if we submit enough reports that someone from ea (prob an on-call team) will see to fixing this
bc i wanna play bf2042 
disregard it seems they've alr fixed it
PC or Game Box?
pc
Good deal. I'll look for you when I get home from work
Hey gamers


Yes same as me
And iam trying too find any updates for EA but there none
Lost in breakthrough defending on Spearhead in 12 minutes, sigh
ngl rush xl redacted was epic last night
no
Why can't I use headgear with Irish's true patriot skin, it ruins my fashion :(

Who is that?
It's the bf4 skin for irish, you can't use any headgear with it.
Did you know, not sleeping for 2 nights makes you half awake and half asleep when you sleep
did you know a jiffy is an actual measurement of time
🙂🫠🙃🙄🤔🤫🫣🤯
wtf guys, anytime i wanna play TDM greatest hits it give me server full of bots?
is the game really THAT dead?
turn on crossplay
i have that on
what region are u in
EU
i guess it's just not being played then 
We really need a Cold War Battlefield. Can't let COD bastardise it forever.
the next black ops game is gonna be better than the next bf game
Do you have any idea how often I roll my eyes at the bullshit fake aircraft that COD keeps bringing out because they can't even be fucked to pay a licencing fee or just stick to changing the name a little
They're always so ugly
EA servers down ?
anyone able to find a full rush xl lobby lately
that or like a Korean War one would be neat. cant think of many games that use that setting
I wouldn’t be surprised they will continue to add more dog / horse / cow skins
I have been half awake and half asleep all day plz help
someone knock me out or Smth
A Soviet-Afghani map sounds cool
What if they made a battlefield with like stuff from previous games as well as futuristic stuff
That would be so cool !!!! 😎 /s
sounds like 2042 with portal

BT on Redacted is evil, why the hell put the map in BT?
BT was an afterthought for that map
@frozen tartan hop inna vc or nah?
@delicate spear can hop on but can't get on mic rn
no need to vc then we can keep going
Better than Redacted conquest
on the top right graph thing, i have 28 for LAT and 41 for ALAT, is the connection on my end or server side?
LAT=28, ALAT,=41, SFT=13, CFT=27, BW IN= 223, BW OUT = 125, PL IN/OUT= 0
Y'all know anything about AARP clan tag players?
They are so extremely sweaty the game isn't even fun
In like 5 or so weeks
are most of the people in this clan retired?
They're mostly the KRAG dudes from BT
They aren't that sweaty
anyone pls answer me
why my wepeons doesnt get any exp ???
in each match i finish i check its still the same it stoped idk why
any one would like to explain ??? pls
Are you playing on moderate XP portal game modes ?
i am playing on the servers yes but recently it was good and i got all the exp but since yestarday it stoped
and my exp its going up only the wep
@dire hawk
are you choosing your games with the server browser ? Because if you don't, there's definitely a problem
yes same is the usual game conquest and iv been playing in the browser long time now and i get all my exp and my wep exp but i dont know why it stoped yestarday @dire hawk
okay, the problem you have is that the servers you've been playing for a long time were "Full XP" that means there were no XP restrictions whatsoever, but now I think you're joining "Moderate XP" servers and so your XP is limited and that's probably the reason why it stoped yesterday
hi everyone
thank you
good morning chat, there's a guy with 13% acc and 0.2 kpm on ARs trying to tell me that tdm is a low skill mode
okay and
yeah probably
Anyone else getting that vehicle glitch
My camera is stuck in the ground if I die in a vehicle
Even if I respawn
I have to start a whole new match
Bs game
bot match?
if yes, thats a bug only found in bot matches afaik
Ohhh
i had that as well. and only in bot matches
God forbid they ever fix bot match functionality.
The tick rate is bad enough.
Gives the authentic feeling of lag while at 0 ping.
If you mean solo and co-op games, the "lag" is intentional. Those games run at half the tickrate
dont think theyre 0 ping either
Yeah and it feels like absolute shit
Its by design tho. So there isnt anything to fix. Best solution would be for you to make some PVE AI experiences you can self host as needed. Those are better anyways, as they allow weeklies progress, as well as all the other stuff you get with solo and co-op
Its funny tho, cos solo and co-op basically is how the last gen version of the game is. Those poor players
Yeah and having no bloody server browser is also by design, so I don't have much faith in what DICE considers good choices.
Indeed.
Where is Battlefield 1842
how do you use characters from bf3 in a 2042 match
Where is Battlefield 4242
target acquired
any1 to get ps5 copntroller to woprk it used to but i reset windows and redownloaded it and now it doesnt and ds4 isnt working either
They should turn down the frequency of the CQC maps in Conq 64
I have an idea for a new specialist
An Italian, based on the Arditi, the shock troops of the Italian army during WWI
The kit is a knife that can simply one shot the enemy when used on them, and the passive is that his running speed is 50% higher than the other specialists
It's based on their stretegy, which consisted in using artillery fire to make the nemy cover, run to the trenches, get in while the artillery stopped, and essentially kill everyone with knife fighting, since the trenche's small spaces weren't good for handling bayonettes or rifles, and the Arditi were trained in fencing and other martial arts
did you miss that Dice has stopped content updates
and havent added any specialists since Blasco
Idk if it's too op, but maybe the kit could consist of a grenade that when thrown jams every enemy's gun (not including specialist gadgets, grenades, and vehicles weapons) for five seconds
Yeah I missed it
I don't play a lot
Just thought it'd be fun
The bases of the game are kinda interesting, but idk why it doesn't feel fun to play
I am so bad at reading font. I saw the "TDM Greatest Hits" and I misread it as TOM Greatest Hits. "who's Tom"? >_<
Tom Cruise
Tommy Hilfiger
Tom Petty
Tom from Myspace
damn, I always get a team full of bots. Not literal ones, but people who act like the objective doesn't exist
Imagine how fun bf would be if people actually used the full extent of the game. Classes, comms, obj play
I’ve done some decently sized scrims for bfv and it’s so fun
i had two exact opposite games today. one where our team wouldn't leave spawn with vehicles. the other where the decent players left spawn with vehicles and did their job
turns out when a team's vehicles do their job and kill their targets, their infantry can move around and capture objectives wow crazy
i roamed around in a TOR and annihilated their ground vehicles (sometimes air too if they came too low). our AA moved up out of spawn and kept the air locked down
at the end we almost had every objective captured
though i didn't really get countered too often. i only died once because i ran into two brawlers in a row and each time literally every engineer came out to shoot a rocket at me
and another time another TOR came out to fight me and i ran away and left them to my team when they tried chasing me
it's great when vehicles put in work
never
me
so people have forever to finish the battlepass
in one of my last few games, everyone was AT LEAST 50m away from the objective we had to defend. I was literally the only one apart from a few AI who passed through to defend
It was very frustrating D:<
Then in my previous one just recently, our team actually did play the objective and it was quite nice. Good use of smoke and rushing
wow they really nerfed the 12M down to a bb gun didn't they
legit question, how do you kill ballistic shield users
Feet, flank, boom, elevated positions, rushing them and doomguy strafing around them because they are like slow turtle
they cant turn quickly unless they put it down
Its like killing the armored walkers in Helldivers
that analogy helps ty. Everyone told me fire, but fire makes them rush and hit you immediately
i usually just aim at their toes lol. dont think it works too well tho
I wish they would delete the Stadium map. It's horrendous in every way
Become shield.
Instructions too confusing: crouched up and down near an enemy shield user and now we're allies
Fire grenade
I'm looking for friends to play this game with
Maybe I am using fire grenade wrong, then. It never kills them or even scares them
Throw whete the mindless fricks are running
Juke them out
I need people with mics to play with 😫
I can't even speak to the other team
Good evening, Is there a way to achieve flares on draugr?
draugr doesn't have flares
you cant cut the chute mid air??
crouch to cut the chute
I should play the game again.
they made it good?
Fr?
Jump over and mele
Mine is always on
I think cntrl on keyboard cuts the cord?
😛
Without any information at all there’s not much we can do to help
I just found out that the 1942 parachute is different from the rest I thought they used the same parachute
Anyone wanna squad up ?

Probably a noob question but how do planes, not the draugr, strafe infantry effectively?
It seems whenever I try to use anything not my missiles I can’t hit the side of a barn door lol
Idk if it’s the angle I’m taking, maybe I’m too low, or more likely I’m just bad
go to max height
Does the 25mm not burst nearly as well as the 30 for infantry?
I don’t have much unlocked, so I know sometimes you get poopoo weapons to start, do you generally shoot from cockpit or 3rd person?
I’m gonna be completely honest here
The kerosene bombs are a bit overrated
They’re cool, and fantastic for killing infantry, but more often than not you’re useless against other vehicles
Stick with JDAMs
I think most times I’ve killed people in air it’s with the IR missiles
Maybe I’ll try the 30 if they’re superior for infantry
Idk how different the gun types are but I just mainly find visibility to be the issue
People don't spot so when I go for a strafe run I have no idea if there's even an enemy in the spot
Who has friends?
Not me lol
Head to conquest custom/private. Progress will apply
anyone been to Afghanistan WW3 war yet?
