yeah thats why i mentioned it š
Just make it possible to "lock" vehicle from any ai entering. Easy
Iāve gotten maybe 60-70 levels from solo alone I was pretty insane at launch Iāve overcome all stupid ai expect for the real life pilots they are when using jets
A toggle in settings
Or just make the ai react to quick chat menu
I thought they did in a update from last year or last last year
Gonna check if it works even though he said it dont
I think it was only for things like ammo and medic requesting
They drop ammo when you ask
It didnt last year, hadnt checked back since
Closed the game, probably the same 
Literally the most needed feature
How this werent added in version 1.000.000.001 is insane
It should have been the 1st patch they would make
I reported it now https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/Annoying-AI/m-p/14021587#M31701
It's not a bug though. Should make a suggestion about it if you feel it's needed 
Also, it wont be changed at all for that game i am sure
It is a bug, becuase they dont react to the quick chat commands
Well? Anyone up for 2042 all day?

Why would I sign up for an orange Irish?
In what scenario would orange be a practical camo in this game?
Haven
For the one area in the one conquest map that has a couple of fall colored trees of course :^)
I guess I'm exaggerating there's 2 spots on that map where there's fall colored trees lol
Hi everyone i need help for get t1 on recon4
I need to spawn and replied
In the Vehicle
Anyone can come?
new map friend
Brings me back to SOCOM II, running around in the "Gortons Fisherman" fit was a badge of Courage and Honor!
I take it you never rocked out with some color on BF4?
In made sense in battlefield 4 cause we had maps like Zavod, Caspian Border (Since it was set in the fall), and Dragon Valley,
The only map I could attribute orange to would be Haven but even then we have more naturalistic oranges to run with.
Hourglass 
I don't think i've ever picked a camo that fits the map
What new info could we even get?
It is, but if it was me, I would rather get the Season 1 tier 100 skin for skin for Lis (but that's mainly because red heads in tanktops make my brain feel funny things)
I guess time'll tell!
We talkin skins & camos... 
Surely you want to be emailed so that dice can tell you about their new shiddenfarten bundle thatās coming to the store now!
Gimme the 'Black Knight' Universal Skin and send me anything in my Email...
Give me fucking BF6 and I'll do everything I get asked
most curious
Hope you guys got a hefty payout. We'll miss you!
bru
Yeah i got a pretty huge check
waiting to cash it in rn
Just flashy effects
They prolly gon add memberships or something lul
Cause thatās a feature
Oh great so what weāre gonna be run by corporate shills now
See you guys on the other side š¶āš«ļø
y'all clearly dont remember the ea games discord then 
I just hope DICE fixes the bots in 2042 before fully ditching the game. They constantly get stuck or just sit still in no mans land. All they need to do is tell them to constantly attack objectives and it will 100% fix them.
Maybe they can get me my damn regular role
Really wondering if the next BF can actually save BF as a franchise
Add server browser to the next game or flop
Look at it this way. It has to at least be at the level of Delta Force if they want to have any chance.
Really a shame that these AAA studios keep cutting development for their previous games
Only if itās like BF3 Mod
I have a feeling thatās why they brought Vince on board. They may just make full blown BF 1942 again with new graphics.
Better add Stalingrad as a playable map
Thatās a really low bar
BF3 Mod but with more weapons and games modes like a game called Squads trust you wonāt regret it
You might as well play Squads
Nah the BF3 was perfect just needs some work
I know, but that game functions and has outstanding weapon animations. Both of which were a struggle for 2042 lol. So it HAS to be at least that good in order to compete. If itās worse, the franchise is over.
If I want anything brought over from Squad itās the emplaced weapon reload animations
Seriously I could reload TOWs all day
Squad weapons feel a lot meaner and heavier than usual BF weapons
But I get the feeling people would bitch about it because itās slowing them down
Which is why we lost the vehicle animations from V
Could compromise by making it high damage
Boo hoo you canāt teleport out of the tank
These were the best.
Took actual skill and timing to get in and out of vehicles
If I want anything brought over from squad it's shitty Toyota technicals
Give me my recoiless rifle in the bed of a truck
An ultra realistic Battlefield is fun with the limitless potential for unique weapons brought in from real life
I just want interesting gameplay. Thatās why the server I made in portal has asymmetrical warfare. It keeps the game fresh because it feels slightly different as the Americans vs the Russians. Though at the same time, I made sure to balance everything out.
Why DICE canāt handle that is beyond me.
getting them more active here means they will know how shit we think they are
How annoying would suicide drones be if they were to be added into the game
however were probably gonna get more blog posts about operators lives to build lorefanboisclub
Like the anti personnel ones all over Ukraine
It could be balanced. BF4 had them
Give me my flamethrower ukrainian drone
Canāt you do that with Casperās drone?
Thought they patched that?
You can still stick bombs to his drone but it seriously weighs it down
Interesting
It's an underpowered drone for such a task
Bring back mortars 
Mortars can easily be balanced with how long it takes to fire them, make them have to aim manually with actual iron sights like far cry 2
But they half ass it and just let people use the mini map to drop them
Just donāt make the damn things remote controlled like in 4
Doesnāt even make sense
Mortars are still very useful in modern combat
Well yeah they were just op if bf1 lmao
But they are straight up strapping 6 mortar rounds on 1 drone nowadays
Yes because they half assed them once again
It's crazy
It was kind of OP because they let everyone in support have them and was able to resupply them I believe
I don't think having a loader would be a good idea
Nobody would want to play them lol
You still get a gun
You just make the section personās spot like a vehicle seat
Kill should be counted for both the loader and the operator
So it would provide and incentive to be the loader
You run up and attach your self to it for a minute
Exactly
Mortars usually operate behind the lines so
It would be boring
Yeah and how many people actually sit themselves in the spotters seat :/
Maybe have it sycronise with the recon class
Like recon has to laser targets for them to show up on your map
Yea exactly, they need to make these games slower paced like BF2 or BF3 and have more in depth gameplay.
They would be so much fun again
A mortar drone sounds more fun if they can balance it by letting other players have weapons to shoot them down
Though mortar drones themselves usually operate at an altitude not visible to the naked eye
Yeah well most of the air craft in game do lol
Like an f-35 would not be making near ground gun runs
They would be using BVR ordinance
Just bring back the M142 from BF4 š
Is that the bumblebee drone?
It's the Himars
Indeed.
Tbh most of the things we want are in other games :/
Like as much as I want battlefield to sit kinda somewhere near where it is and arma
That's kinda what squad does :/
That's just me personally though
One thing I would love to see battlefield add is a persistent multiplayer "campaign" of sorts
Like a big ass map everyone has to fight over
IMO most players are/were happy with how BF was in the BF3, 4 and 1 days. They had the formula, just decided to move away from it too much.
Gameplay/mechanics wise I mean here.
People try to dunk on COD for just being a copy/paste each release...but I would kill for BF to do that, have stuck to what it was with BF4/BF1 but re-theme and release a new game with new maps, weapons/vehicles as often as COD players get.
Gimme BF1 again without the random bullet spread and I'd be happy
bfv gameplay in bf1 would have been insane
I mean, its not like trench warfare isnt still a thing for modern ground forces haha
š§
I would take a battlefield game that has the pacing BFV, the immersion of BF1, the gameplay of BF4 and the destruction of BC2 but with the granularity of BF1 and V
i always felt ppl flamed on it far too much at the beginning for trying something new & honestly really cool
Flamed which thing/game in particular?
Well deserved IMO
why?
I need some Help, on the apache war chief it says achieve 60 kills to unlock it, I did my 60 kills but it says unlocked by mastery 1
Whats mastery 1? (I'm new BTW)
i woke up a beast didn't i
I want BF to have gunplay that feels like insurgency, just faster paced with vehicles.
It's a fair critique. Lots learnt from the launch, that's for sure. š
I wish they would just use the same formula for each game and add additional mechanics with each entry. NOT redesign the entire game every time.
The best advice is to experiment in side modes and not upend the entire BF experience in case the changes are disliked
At 2042 launch, lets not forget
- No server browser (Still isnt one for official modes)
- No way to join friends in game
- No way to join a full party of players in game until 18 months after launch
- No classes (Outside of cosmetic branding)
- Very poor Balance, as any player could use any gadget on any specialist (Which resulted in heavy meta build issue - AKA...everyone using Angel or Falck with a rocket launcher)
- Maps that were bad (So much so they had to ALL be remade)
- Technical issues (Bound to happen in a new game, but 2042 had a lot of issues that persisted for a year post launch)
yeah you won
There is an entire hidden game with bots in this game
There are even male and female versions of each class for the Marines and Russians.
absolutely
Scoreboard 
thats all i played at the beginning, but mp players got that messed up
eh whatevs
Hope you're doing OK dude!
we still need a visible ping in the scoreboard. I'm doing well and hope you and the crew are doing likewise
I still only play with the bots. I designed a version of 2042 thatās actually fun to play. All vehicles and weapons are asymmetric.
yeah, i got a buddy who also still only plays bots
They team that essentially remade the game did a great job tho. So credit where credit is due.
Every update after the BF teams got (As it appears from the outside looking in) "restructured", delivered consistent update after update of dramatic improvement to the game.
In the last 2 years, there isnt any change (Outside of maybe visual recoil addition) that was a bad change/made the game worse.
i however like being a nuisance in mp
i can't kill, but I can bother, like a bug
Visual recoil change wasnt really a "bad" thing perse, it just felt a bit unnecessary (given the age of 2042 when it was added)
lol my issue isnāt with getting kills against people. I play with the bots because itās more immersive
mm
2042 bots are okay
but the solo mode settings are bad
They actually work better than I expected. They fly aircraft and drive tanks too
The problem is that sometimes they sit still in random place and you have to turn on friendly fire so you can kill them and they respawn
They donāt need to use all weapons? The American bots use NATO weapons and the Russians use Russian weapons.
Im fine with tem not being able to use all weapons. Imagine 2042 bots all using the NTW haha
I turn the HUD off an itās semi challenging
I really need them to use all weapons if possible
Why?
Its gotten to a point where most of the weaponry, vehicles etc are in an extremely nice spot and its merely fine tuning up or down and a few minor corrections. I get asked near daily, is there anything wrong, what can we look into etc - but it's very much a case of there's a really nice balance in some areas, why disrupt it.
I also want them to use UBGL
me when farming with jet: š¤š¤š¤
Variety in behavior sure, but I donāt want them using other armyās weapons
we're playing BF
this does not matter to me
Right, it should be America vs Russia
go play something else
If weapons were locked per faction you get twice as much replayability out of the game
that system broke free when BC exists
What?
bad company
pmc wagner
The only thing id ask for is the removal of ticket loss on sector capture in conquest. IMO it spoils so many tight games. If not removed, tweaked so it doesn't affect a team when their tickets are under 100.
And the obligatory "Where are the Aug and M95 in AOW" š
but whatever
If the next game won't have better and advanced solo mode
ill just stick to WR Bf4
What's an AUG and a M95?!!? 
Itās also so stupid that I canāt rank up weapons against bots on the highest difficulty
is prigozhin dying gonna be in the plot
No lol, just US vs PMCās
I also hate it when devs outright limits or disables progress rank system in solo mode
I know.
I donāt understand, itās not like Iām exploiting the game or cheating. I just want to play solo.
You arent, but others were. I also dont like restrictions, but as a game designer understand why they were added
It should have been locked to the hardest difficulty bots. And maybe taken twice as long.
Instead of needing 50 kills for a particular scope, against bots itās 100. Not that hard to implement.
But DICE just have the hardest time possible with every game they make for some reason.
Right
I doubt they want to, either for this or future games implement separate data systems for online or offline play. Sounds like a nightmare.
Ok but if itās just the same system, just duplicated to solo, how is that a nightmare?
there existing examples of things doesnt automatically make them a good idea
All they would need is a dedicated single player team of maybe 5 people.
People saying this like this have never designed or built a data base or data structure for large MP games hehe
there are a million could have and should haves we could talk about tho. Hardly much point in doing so tho š
Of course I havenāt dude. But itās no secret that DICE donāt know what theyāre doing with their own Frostbite engine.
camping in TDM = being a little bitch, who agrees?
Ill leave you at that comment. You dont know how game development is if you think data structures and in engine development are the same thing
there is also just no reason to go there or say things liek this lol
You can express an opinion with out being like "DICE are shit and dont know what they are doing"
Of course there is a reason to say things like this. You have to implement it all together at some point. Any person who follows these games, whether they have deep knowledge of game design or not can clearly see that they are struggling very hard internally.
Again, ill point to 2 years of solid game updates as proof that they are not "struggling very hard internally."
Again, content wise it could have been better. But thats down to the game needding to be remade in all aspects, and poor pre-planning by the team that was there at launch, but the updates we got were all major Ws
credit where its due kevin youve done a lot over the last few years to make something i considered irredeemable at launch into a nice place
When it takes you 2 years to implement features the last game had into your new game, yes youāre struggling as a studio.
The only thing I really care about is not having dedicated servers like in the old days. All this other stuff is irrelevant. But running your own server was a blast. And it would eliminate hackers overnight. Can anyone explain why we can't have those back.
What feature took 2 years?
They do this every single time too.
How about implementing a class system.
The server browser, that like you mentioned, isnāt even in the main game.
Itās just sad
You can tell that this was another cookie cutter Battle Royal game that they rushed Conquest into
At the last second
they already said like 7 times why they wouldnt do a server browser, isnt anything new
Also there are animations that are still broken
They tried a totally different game design, it didnt work > they remade the game.
The thing they tried not working isnt a symptom of them struggling internally, its a symptom of not knowing your audience. Hopefully they learn from it. š
I hope so
hoping for cat girls and emotes in bf6
No doubt

Something for your mood board

wtf is that
also an option to build a relationship with the enemy team instead of fighting and end the match with a truce
misuse of AI
BF6 teaser art š
AI gone wrong
i just want day and night cycles on maps
literally it better destruction would be cool too
I want maps that dont take a year to create š
So no to dynamic day/night cycles for me haha
the way smoke and the clouds reacted to planes flying around in the reveal trailer was also sick
I want dedicated servers, is that too much to ask for.
that trailer wasnt supposed to be the main trailer
it only got done cause they corrupted the first
I want better.solo mode.
AI Soldier art looks funky even with more 'realistic' prompts. This does look like something that Mackay would wear though
is that not that one burnt mackay skin unburnt
Oh, you're right
Tell me you're Mackay, without telling me you're Mackay 
"First of all, I am Mackay
Second of all, you're not Mackay"
i cant be the only one who finds it cool they created animations for when flying a jet through the smoke cloud of a destroyed gas tank that makes the smoke look like it reacted to the jet soaring through it
hoping to see this in the next gritty bf game
Cat-tlefield
NGL I'd rock that just because it'd be funny
I still find it wild that as much better as AI has gotten on image quality, they still cant sort out hands š
"Yes, I can perfectly super-impose and blend this cats head onto a human body, but I will absolutely not use the correct amount of fingers on a hand"
it has to be on purpose
Last one of the old ones I made to cringe people off
The above gif link is crashing my display driver
Perfectly has no stock too for that SPEED BUILD
Makes it easier to shoot around corners blindly
š©
so... COD BO6?
Forbot about these, C'thulu specialist easteregg suggestion and plush
Promegranate Perservatives
resolution scale 100/200/300 in bf2042
Can't see difference on phone š„¹
Can barely see a difference zoomed in on browser either ha

the smoke looks a tiny bit better thats about it. left is 200 and right is 100
I find it depends on the effort the ācreatorā put in and the engine. Iāve seen more than a few which were almost perfect
PTFO !
I know it could be a point of controversy for DICE but I wouldn't mind soldiers in the next battlefield game having both recognizable uniforms and colored tape/armbands similar to what the Ukrainians and Russians do to make identifying friend from foe easier (especially if 3D spotting doesn't come back)
For that we'd need factions back and no cringe specialists
Which at this point remains unconfirmed
I have a strong feeling DICE isn't doing specialists again
Even with the class system brought back to accommodate the specialists people are still highly adverse to 2042 because of them
Many people think that way and I hope you're all right
Because specialists fucking suck tbh
When playing BF you want to play a nameless dude or dudess with no special ability
Especially since most of the specialists ability are frankly a bit useless
This is a weird best squad
this is where i'd put my own screenshot
if I could
Yoooo is that Wagner boss Yevgeny Prigozhn? 
lol
Damn if there are 3 boris in the best squad it must've been a bad match
anyone know when the camera glitches will be fixed if theyre gonnab e fixed at all
And a big corporation destroys a a community made by a community
you cant with boosted role?
waronze
our new overlords are working their own system for those permissions :)
Hold up, they took image perms away from boosters now too?
RIP any progress towards being a regular here also (Maybe another 15000 messages will be enough to be considered one
)
Been here almost 4 years and still not a regular 
i'd wear that as a decoration (or at least until otherwise)
Maybe the new EA mods will recognize my greatness and let me post funny cat pictures
i'm leaving, can't share funny clips anymore
:)
never got it, even after 4 years
lol same, cos the old bot was not counting posts for 10k of mine š
No hassle anyway, new server management so there are sure to be growing pains. Its no biggie
Is game still soulless tacky mediocre hero garbage?
Let's all talk battlefield, friends
Xfad Drauger's JDAM bomb is technically a glide bomb and can that bomb have a bigger explosion effect and radius?
Agreed
The kerosene bomb can clear a whole building by just hitting the roof/side of a building
like god intended
It's more of an issue with fire in general going thru walls in the game though
thats also true
The more I look at the Korsene explosions, the smaller it looks from the trailer.
now to set a baseline, would yall say the kerosene bomb needs to do the same damage as the incendiary grenade?
this isnt an opinion i hold but someone else in the server says it needs to be nerfed even more for some reason so i just want yalls input

They could had pulled a BFV nerf like they did on the incendiary bombs where you have to hit the eyeball of a soldier directly to get a hit marker.
they could have but thank fuck they didnt cause that thing sucks 
I dropped a jdam on someone and it did 61 damage
How close was it to do 61 damage but not kill lol
it hit his head obviously
Jdam explosion looks lazy, there is no big fireball, large crater, or a smoke cloud.
well thats the JDAM, im talking about the kerosene bomb 
To be honest they should had added at least 2 or 3 to the ammo count?
Would have to nerf vehicle damage then
Nah
It's like 55 damage when dropped on tanks right now
They could simply pull out the aps system that can counter a tank shell
I wish they added a cruise missile system or brought back the Spearhead easter egg
This game lacks missile attacks
I want big boom š
Delta Force has cruise missileš
yeah but delta force is going to be unavailable to play in a few days
The best 2042 imitator
Delta force has a pretty solid foundation despite it copying stuff.
Minus the specialist
Specialists aren't even that bad.
They just provide more gameplay opportunities. But I will agree that they make certain parts of it more annoying.
Milk your wallets with anime skins
Spotted 24/7 and the shock pulse drones are the worst parts.
What about the literal UI taken from a bunch of battlefield games instead of being original about it?
The kill icon is exactly the same as bf5 with slight color differences
Although I despise plagiarism, now that Battlefield has stopped updating, I have to play this second-rate game.
Even the vehicles customizations layout are similar
But shit like an assault being able to dash or another dude going into overdrive and healing after every kill makes it varied.
Yeah.
Mortar pod, HEAT, etc.
The vehicle loadout screen is from bf2042
The shell type is a true thing but it feels a little too similar.
Not shell tyoe
Type
So EA said we donāt want discord anymore, let the community take over
But the idea on the cannon and that.
When a clone of a most hated game gets love compared to the original one then there is something wrong
It looks like Delta force will have destruction events from that recent trailer showing a large warehouse in the middle of that dessert town map dynamically caving in on itself
at least you responded
tried to get tad to respond but no such luck
Imagine how much it'll kill people's computers to be in a stadium eventually collapsing. @severe hill
Delta force is lame
What about the support wheel which is exactly the same as BF5. It has mortars and smokescreen from BF5
Throughout the match bits and pieces would drop down but then the big momma holy shit that was the big one.
The original delta force isn't
wait lemme see if tad'll respond here
@void gorge the server is going to be run by EA tomorrow.
I love the call in system, but you need a less special ed team to get the points needed. Cammandor mode is the way to go.
The original delta force had unlimited terrain, which sets delta force apart from other shooters. Which is good for Long range combat but DFHO doesn't have that
I think only squad leaders should have the power.
End game becomes spammy.
I prefer the commander role to call in missiles, artillery, possibly behemoths.
While call-ins call supply drops, jeeps, smoke barrages, and special vehicles like HIMARs or Thermaric missile launchers
In Bf5 squad leader could do that. Squad leader abilities is better than bf4 commander mode i think
I was just playing and I was running when I saw that an enemy tank passed over the allied land mine and the effect of the explosion was scary, it was so immersive, but on the other hand, EA should increase the speed at which the AA missile travels. to the target
Ok but how do you feel about this server being moderated by EA Community Managers starting tomorrow

Monday* :)
So long as they understand most battlefield players are military/firearms nerds and don't freak out when people discuss it alongside game discussion then I don't see a problem

anyone see the "CNN" group lately on 2042? they seem sketchy
When announcements on server's discord
Tomorrow
Oh this is going to go swimmingly 
People really don't remember that the server has been run by EA before
Or they were not on this server during that time 

Itās gonna be fun when the most inactive users start to moderate here 
Ima do a quick match with my M5A3 to get it to T2
I got 256 kills but my M5A3 still T3
Only 256 kills
I just fell in the little buggy hole at the bunker (D flag) on orbital right as I shot my rpg and killed myself š¤¦āāļø
Typical fucking Stadium
Turns out the air vents in the ceiling can be grappled up to by fucking Mackay, once again proving that he is terrible for map design
Especially annoying when heās using a crossbow so nobody even knows heās there
Love the feeling of locking down an entry hall with an LMG/MMG
Specialist as a whole are a questionable concept for the battlefield franchise
I have the high ground
tag
Yet you still play it

Itās not like I have much of a choice
You know, because they never gave us a server browser
How to unlock mastery I?
Kill stuff
I've been killing for long time now š
It says 60 kills on a specific vehicle to unlock next rockets
Now it says unlock mastery I
Vehicle masteries usually require more kills than infantry weapons
The EA staff are here?
yes, what can i help you
Sixty kills with tanks and most armoured vehicles is one mastery rank
It will also count assists
There's this player in Afghanistan simulator portal
Very active, he goes on killing teamates, also spams revive only to kill again, basically puts you in this loop, can't even touch the menu screen to redeploy or quit the game, absolute nightmare to deal with
Multiple people have reported him but he's still very much active
Username FLOYD1138
Also disgustingly abusive in chat
Okay, I will relay the message to EA
/staff

Why ping bruh
No
2042 and that other game doesn't belong in the same sentence
EA giving up on us š¦

But I want it now!
Just remain active
I got it after 3 years

Give it time theyāre still ironing things out
Although Iām not sure why if the systems were already in place
ĀÆ_(ć)_/ĀÆ
Some dude the other day said EA rarely comes in the discord now they took over

Hold my beer moment
Regular most likely will change with EA taking over the server, as the bot that regulates it all isn't here anymore from my knowledge.
Wait.. were randoms running the server instead of EA?
not randoms like you 
Low IQ detected
lol
lmao
That's crazy.
If an AC is making your GPU run hotter that's literally your issue.
I have a hot-ish GPU and it never gets that hot.
Just have better cooling lmao
Maybe in some really weird niche world your two fan GPU in an ITX case has to run a little hotter but this shit sounds like a CPU issue not a GPU.
You should avoid mirrors for a while 
buh?
Me neither.
I have a well circulated case but nothing on top.
Reckon the dude is straight up lying.
Yo who's playing rn?
At least over the age of 45 for certain
Playing the Recon class, do I get more spots from the prox sensors or from TUGs?
If that is a relevant question, of course š
I'd probably say TUGs
TUGs are more persistent, but youāll definitely get more immediate results from piffing a sensor into the enemy line
I found that the TUG actually gets a lot of spots on Stadium because itās three corridors stacked on top of each other
And how sensors and jammers work in this game is actually a column that reaches remarkably far vertically
The proxy grenades picks up people who aren't moving and generally works well for scoping areas out.
Therefore a great offensive spotting option.
Tugs operates the opposite direction in that it acts as an anchor spotting people who are sprinting.
Didnāt they change it to only pick moving enemies years ago?
What was that young man 
I know back in bf3 the tugs and claymores worked like that.
There's also bits and pieces that don't function to their true counterparts.
But dice have acknowledged the claymore exploding at certain speeds in this game so I like to believe the tugs functions under that here as well.
(Javelin going from laser guided to lock fire and forget)
I saw the announcement ping and I'm confused lol
Does this mean the mod team is changing or something?
Mods are OP now
Changing
i already have a dad. i don't need another
I wonder if the former mods are going to at least get a cool role tag after the changes, or if they'll get some other benefit
š“
So is the Black Hawk going to be in the gunship tab? If so why would anyone choose it over the Condor or Super Hind
they're just now adding vault vehicles to the main game
They could have started with Attack Jets... at least then they would feel like actually unique additions to the main game
If the UH 60 counts as Armored Transport and not a Gunship then I can see it actually being viable, otherwise.... no.
I redownloaded 2042 just to revisit the game every once in awhile
Yeah, how does the UH-60 compare health wise with both condor and Mi-240?
Well in Portal it is made out of paper
Could be buffed for the actual main mode though
so it seems the wildcat is finally getting aps huh?
finally the anti aircraft vehicle can now reliably defend itself from aircraft again
yeh I would complain about this but the wildcat is fairly balanced now tbh
Did they fix the solo mode bug where you would spawn underground if died by crashing?
Thatās been a bug since day one
I'd love to see some lavs being added, put the wildcat in ru team and give the us team its own aa, most of the vehicles in this game are shared to each team, gets confusing
I remember years ago u can turn the tanks and lavs into an aa by equipping guided shell, auto locks to aircrafts when u fired it in the sky
in portal only it exists
So same as the lav. Which you said to just add and give to US team, while giving RU the Wildcat
Replacing the Condo and Hide with the UH-60? 
That's actually a huge change
Like, no more battle bus tactics?
Breakthrough only
Curious how much this changes Breakthrough
Ik
They aren't really replacing it fully, just in some modes.
Should be good for the modes it's in tho. š
Yes I know, it's only being applied to Breakthrough
Oh wait patch notes?
It's a tough one tbh. Gameplay wise having only the UH60 is objectively better for balance. But if they place it in the same category as the condor/hind...it is also objectively a worse choice for a player due to lesser firepower, armor and speed.
Wait theyāve put the black hawk in?
So they nerf the hell out of Irish just to add his ability to the vehicle that people use to sit in spawn. Good idea dice. I will never understand their balance changes. Rip Irish the only character that countered the explosive spam and protected against OP vehicles.
Hang on, packing some eggs, need to look at this
You will never understand because you don't think about balance as a whole
600+ hours I guess I donāt
Actually I lowkey need those eggs fam.. @pine roost
You can currently kill a Wildcat outside of the range of its missiles with AGMs on the Nightbird and apache. This solves that
I think it'll require players to use the UH-60 in tandem with the players on thr ground instead of strafing over the objective, blowing up everything and dropping a whole squad + change ontop of the point
Or even easier with an apache with AGMs, pods and gunner
So guys, how did dice change the repair and the hack jammer, cuz i couldn't really find anything in the changelog apart from them stating that it was changed somehow.
No change, they just added the existing functionality to the new uh60
Ah
They just added a repair system and anti-hacking gadget to the UH-60
Being misled is a thing for them
If you can make past the 6 Lis players spamming rockets and the 10 other people with AA sure
A gross exaggeration but sure.
Perhaps now they will nerf Lis damage to aircraft a bit. IMO she shouldn't 1 shot any heli
Attack helis aren't 1 shot tho
Stealth and Nightbird are
Welp as it should be
Disagree, but you're entitled to an opinion
Although stealth should not be 1 shot
Not sure how Iād jive with aps on the wildcat. Nowhere near as strong as the Irish camping pre nerf but Iād have to give it a play with
Wonder how the Uh will handle given the mechanical differences between portal vehicles and base
C5 will remain the way to destroy campers, so not much has changed in that respect for infantry
UH60 flight model has been updated to match 2042 era helis
Yuh. But just thinking about jet gameplay, 30ms might be the go to now
Mainly stuck to the 25s and agms to focus wildcats, but if itās got aps now then thatāll be tougher
I guess the Wildcat could do with an APS. That thing gets torn apart by anything once its thermal smoke is popped
Dropping jdams from a kilometer will be not as fun now
I wonder how strong the guns on the UH60 will be. They are very strong and accurate on portal varients
Feeling a little cautious but these things are always worth trying out in game before making assumptions
Though replacing the gunships is a bold move
damn, dice is moving to doing everything over discord as well? I miss forums : (
that's good if so. i hate companies ditching forums and moving to discord
EA numba 1
Yeah donāt worry about that, ea still use the forums for all their other games, and the forums are a more direct line to devs as it can be properly filtered through
Nobody uses forums anymore man
Not for conversation, but it's good for feedback and bug reports
much better than trying to pick through a channel here
Discord is better for chat and immediate assistance. Forums better for archival purpose and troubleshooting/bug reporting
exactamundo
Like imagine if there was one 'general feedback' channel š
The focussed feedback threads are far better, but at that point forums are just superior
Discord forums can be useful for community bug reporting.
There have been a surprising number of people come into these channels over the years who do straight up say they can't be asked to fill in the bug report form, so there probably is a place for it if it's managed well
At this point, I'm just waiting for the Bradley with an APS be added to AOW.
Could I ask if they ever introduced stg44 in the base game?
Bradley would fit well into AOW haha
i dont think it would go well considering theres one person here who has an absolute hissy fit when forums get mentioned
iykyk
though we already have the community feedback forum so 
Also my speculation on why they gave the wildcat the APS is because they do plan to add the A10 and the SU25 soon.
Maybe not soon, but they might add the A10
It would fit the game, but would they need to add the frogfoot at the same time?
Since we still have RU and US factions then yes. I the only reason that RU gets the Blackhawk is that the other equivalent is the MI24 which is basically just the Super hind but weaker but also somewhat stronger than the Blackhawk in terms of weaponry.
Would be a lot of work to update their fight mechanics to make the base jets
Don't know why anyone's talking about attack jets when the Draugr is right there
It has everything already
yall how do i get better at the stealth bomber š„²š„²š„²
Practice and by tuning the controls/handling to work for you.
I love playing medic. Just had 36 revives in a game
conquest or breakthru has more vehicles?
\
Conquest I think
Which mode most players play in cant find a game without AI
Yo??? They finally removed the gunships from breakthrough 
why Dice don't make RUSH become normal mode?
GUYS im new to this community can anyone let me know how do i play a cnquest mode and have a chat with my teamates ?
it leds me to discord , now what ?
Rush is most popular mode on old battlefield games.................
there's some info on EA, did you google it before asking?
NO PB but thanks i'll check it up
why is there no pure performance mode which puts a focus on performance and disables EVERYTHING that reduces performance? my pc cannot run this game well and it seems like 12 euros badly spent.
Did you not check beforehand
It's like they want to forget itn
Conquest and BT only matters to them
How rude of them
It's the best mode of bf games honestly, and me and my dad rly like to play rush together
I guess they can't fix the RUSH XL laggy issues
I just want returning game modes
Itās so over
So
2042 is getting updated
Alr now letās brainstorm
How can this make 2042 more bugged than it is
And how many of those bugs are going to be abused
We need to prepare for the inevitable
Most original post ever
Iām not trying to be original, Iām trying to save lives
Safety of the mind saves lives
You donāt understand man only 2042 has bugs
No other game in the history of gaming has had bugs, thatās just how bad 2042 is
Dude Iām joking
Pls my boi
Iām sorry
2042 is the #1 fps
š
It is far from it
Point and shoot
EA can take over a whole server but can't give any infos about next fucking game
What a bunch of losers

Hm
several years later and I still look back on this game as one of the biggest wastes of money I ever had the misfortune of buying
I like how everybody talks trash on Battlefield 2042, even though this game seems like it carries a lot more than Call of Duty ever has giving you a better feel for the game making it realistic
Like, why are you guys complaining?
Are you just that bad at the game?
they are redditors
because bfV was really good and 2042 is a wannabe BR
Instead of making a good game they tried to hop on a trend
and afailed miserably might I add
Actually, if you want a better picture of what they tried to do, go play a game in call of duty mobile called ground war breach. Itās the most accurate description that I can really say on how battlefield 2042 wanted their game to be
I would rather smoke ice under a bridge than play a call of duty title and that goes double for cod mobile
Sounds like youāre just bad at both games
no I just don't enjoy them
You donāt want to go check it out so you make excuses for it
I feel like youāre the type to complain when they give you a standard army issue one size fits all.
What part of 2042 is wanting to be br
So maybe they have completely made it better and changed all the shit things about it
they did
See complaining about the game when you havenāt even touched it since they launched go check it out and play conquest
I tell you though itās very aggravating these guys are good with snipers
Ish
To be honest, itās kind of sad sometimes
I paid that shit 100 bucks and still waiting for next game
fr
yeah buying off launch
nah i got the game for free
I learnt my lesson with BFV
Now I am a little mad they were the reason that battlefront two collapsed
never listen to DICE/EA promises before launch
Idk how it is that ea keeps on releasing games that everybody hates and then they patch them into being good actually and then they turn around and release a game that is exactly the same as what everybody hated about the last one
But if anything, they saved me from that cult, and I hope COTR burns to the ground
like veeyrone hated BFV at first but now Id say its one of the best battlefields out there
Because even though everybody says they hate that go check out the player base
h yeah plenty of people buy it cus brand recognition
but then nobody plays it check out player counts like a month after launch
No, Iām saying like Battlefield 2042 everybody talks trash on yet I see more people than I do bots
Unlike Call of Duty
then they make it actually good
Which is just robots
like why not let the devs just make a good game
It is a good game
I'll take your word for it now but it was not at launch
Though I wish it had a little story like For Honor does, yeah, you have the US and Russia fighting against each other but what if you made it into a story and every year the story resets
I think that would be awesome
like the way they patch the games into being good is a clear sign that the developers know what it is that people want out of their games
Because rather than launching a good game at first, do you want to launch something that is a very 50-50 that way when you enhance say it brings in more people to see how we can fix our games and do what you want
Itās kind of a way to grab people in
I don't think thats actually why
If you launch a good game that doesnāt really have any problems then you will lose people because itās good yeah but itās too good. Thereās nothing wrong with it to complain about you play it. You have fun, but thereās nothing else that gives
You need something to give
Baldurs Gate 3
No, that should just burn
nuff said
Boulders gate three seems like Skyrim with a modded love story
The complaints at launch were warranted, but they were fundamental issues to the game's design that have mostly been fixed. So most people hate it on it for it's state at launch, but it's improved much since
I have yet to see this
I want this to be a vehicle
Is there a map that has this?
I could not get around the whole operator thing they had going
Like battlefield is a pretty simple formula
Read through the chat thatās pretty much what I said
Why change it up
fair
To see what the player base would do
but yeah that's about the gist of it
A test if you will
How far are you on Skyrim?
Have you platinum yet?
platinum?
Completed all trophies
playstation trophy for getting all achievements
oh, I don't care for trophies
..
just playing whatever parts I want to play, aiming to work through all the points of interests
Take a look at some of the trophies they help you shape the game better
I'd rather just do my own thing
Like getting all the Daedric artifacts
Skyrim is built for that
yup
I think Iām on my 32nd platinum
But playing any game just to hunt for achievments just saps the fun out of it for me
Youāve committed crimes against Skyrim and her people, what say your defense?
fus
just cause boris is in it
kaleidoscope 128p conquest
ofc
WOO HOOO
you can also get a tier 1 badge for it
If you excuse me, I have some people to run over
Hehehehe
Iām going to go look for a battlefield 42 game thatās being hosted
If you get ran over by that, that's sad
Challenge accepted
Have you ever parachuted onto a moving enemy jet?
My character wouldnāt fall off until I died
And when I say I died, I mean the entire jet went kaboom
Hey Iām sorry too
Stfu and give us infos on next game you piece of shit bot
I preordered because I'm intelligent af
EA receives my cash
I get fucked up the ass
Trading
Should I be concerned?
Win-win scenario
š
the game says something about some new anti cheat and i cant play, i go to the page that tells me but it doesnt work
.-.
Skill issue
youve always had to download a anti cheat since the start of the game..
i didnt do any when i used to play bf with ea launcher..
unless it was auto downloaded that i didnt see
Anticheat is downloaded with the game
ye just noticed, i had to repair the anti cheat for some reason
EA, DICE, everyone else involved: Aim assist zoom snap is way too strong. You've effectively and clearly given an aimbot to controller players/console players. Please tone this down.
It's Apex all over again
If there was console crossplay I would remove aim assist entirely. If you can't aim for shit stay in the arcade.
agreed
Without aim assist it's easy to tell whose on a zen or esp
I still struggle to imagine how bad people must be to need those things
Modern gamers are like " r6 rank teamates".
never played that garbage so I wouldn't know
and R6S was supposed to be ubisoft's CS back in the day. It's got grappling hooks and masterchief n all sorts of ish now
ok fine, we have grappling hooks too
tbh I can't defend Mackay. Sundance atleast takes some skill
Hello
I think you misspelled "we don't want anymore hero shooters please kindly go walk into traffic EA"
This is the kind of response that shows you have issues. That's a threat. Over a videogame. Go touch some grass.
Uhm
how is that a threat?
Is EA a person? Is a corporation able to walk into traffic?
YOU need to touch grass if that threatens you fella
Oh nvm ill ask the quistion later
Yes, they're a bunch of people. Threat or not thats a horrible thing to say.
Almost always. yup. Is it stutters, or something worse?
Waaaay worst
You're deluded if you interpret that as a threat
sure!
Fine, not a threat, still horrible. Grow up
Still wishing death upon them. sheesh
Too bad it's garbage now
And it'll get worse in the future
Its doing this whenever i try to drive any vehicle
Buddy, you're defending a corporate entity. You need to grow up lol
I'm not defending them, I just finished constructively criticizing them. The difference between you and me is maturity
Buddy
I dare you to accept that you've made a mistake and step off.
Yeah ok, "maturity"
Your having a argument over bf idk how mature you can be
narcissists I tel ya
I have made no mistake, unless hurting your feelings counts
YES
Finnaly breakthrough wont suck
No ospreys or super hinds on bt.
"buddy" this is literally Battlefield discords BF2042 channel...
trying to play the clip but it isn't loading, I'll keep trying!
You sound like you need to calm down
no way 
Ill just explain it
me? I'm not the one wishing death on people over a game lol
Im not either
You need to get a grip if telling a COMPANY to "walk into traffic" is a death threat on your radar
Snowflakes I tell ya
Basicly ill get in the driver seat and my camra is under the ground and wont move
And its not exclusive to any vehical
Holy shit move on.
To trucks to tanks to planes helis any
not a threat but almost just as bad. You're wishing death on people, stop replying to me.
Its all broken and i cant drive
I've def had that happen before, have you tried a hard reset of the xbox?
Not yet
Let me try that real quick
Give that a shot and follow up, has fixed it for me before
Thank you for being helpfull
You bet!
Well im at it
Got any tips for grinding the stealth bomber
Its a pain trying to get it going
I'm abysmal at flying in BF games so I can't help you there lol
Darn
Its just so hard to get kills
Because of the emp bomb im forced to start with
No missels or anti air counters
stealth bombing is easy, especially against infantry
Just fly in stealth and quick, find them and press bomb drop button.
Ive kinda ben just emping tanks and cars and hoping someone follows up and gets me a assist
I dont have bombs yet
So gunner seat? Well ask pilot to hold more steady
Im stuck with emp
You'd probably be better served watching a YT vid than getting any advice here tbh
oh
the main cannons on that thing are brutal, you gotta find infantry or slow moving aircraft
Hmm
Just the lack of missel protection really sucks
Like after a kill infantry one time one guy gets in a wildcat so fast and i just cant at that point
low altitude + good turns + an anti-air focused team
enemy jets are your biggest issue, because they'll hunt you regardless if they have lock or not
Just im not the best when i comes to stuff
Dont have to say that twice
I know
lol
They see a stealth bomber and think free food
Ok ima go try your strat
And see how it works
best advice to improve with that is tweak your settings to be as manoeuvrable as possible. And learn about how afterburner / speed makes you turn better
The EMP bomb needs to be in the primary and should aquire 2 or 3. That bomb is so useless unless it's double xp
Ya ik
Jdam bomb is actually a glide bomb so make the boom larger like the trailers and give a destructive blast radius
Anything that pisses off railgun tanks is a great thing imo.
True
Ok well let me try to get some bot kills
Is it really a drone where, when destroyed, you get a death?
It's base off the Russian stealth drone so probably
So why does it take years to do a 2 minute self destruct
S-70 or Su-70 or something like that
SU 70 is a Russian vehicle
Should we get the Iskander Kh 01, Tomahawks, ATCAMS, and Stom Shadow missiles for the next Battlefield.
We can have missile wars.
S-70 Okhotnik-B Unmanned Combat Aerial Vehicle
Just give me a damn predator missile
Not a homing missile
A predator missile
How should shockwaves from missiles effect buildings nearby
Make it dusty
Should all windows shatter, dust kicks up, building shakes violently
"We already have the predator missile at home"
Yes
Then give me an ICBM
Car alarms go off
Predator Missile at home: Lis
No big bomb thoš
And you ruined it
lmao
Of course, some fucktard had to ruin it
That all you think about is people trying to touch you
It's called a predator missile, it hunts you down like a hawk
Natural selection
"Your honour, jury, today in court I will prove that the lis missile 100% knew where it was and where it was going when it hit that victim directly"
I miss temporayl
We would be getting next Battlefield shit right now if he was still posting
Itās okay
Id hop on 2042 but chances of getting stranded are 1 in 11 for CQ128 and that's too damn high. Struggle to make that map interesting. Ended up starting a crawford turret wall farming B site last time
You know a map is bad when the most interesting thing on it is 3 Crawfords farming a site
He's a dataminer.
he stopped posting because of his job, isnt a good look leaking data whilst youre working as a engineer
