What region does have a decent players? I can’t even play except in portal custom servers. I queued for an hour no one joins official servers.
My game isn't working on startup and I get error 😕 any 1 else having the same issue?:( or have a fix)
is the rpg worth taking over the m5? I'm not really a big fan of that 1 less rocket but I heard it does slightly more dmg
It does, you can see the damage itself if you enable damage counters in the hud options
incursion mode?
also operations span multiple maps right, iirc?
What do you guys set vertical aim ratio to? It’s default to 48. Also, should I have uniform soldier aiming on or off?
I’ve only played on MnK so I’m not sure on these
Probably best to leave default now that I think about it
Your personal preference really I like it on cause it helps me with 133 zoom sens with match my monitor
anti tank underbarrel, then rpg, then AT grenade takes off over 60 something percent of any vehicles health on its own, almost takes out a tank on its own if you hit the rear
so OP i wish it didnt exist
is the anti tank underbarrel the 40mm ap on the sfar-m gl?
yeah thats what I use since its the only gun that has to have an underbarrel launcher, meaning the downsides to performance are minimal
it looks so sexy on the AK5C
its also on the svk
lcmg
DFR strife
alright thanks
i did it didnt work
I signed up for the newsletter from the EA website, how do I claim the Irish skin? Or is it too late for that now?
it's just a collection of gamemodes into one mode.
Incursion can be something new
Is there a way to damage a vehicle with the m44 without the ap rounds? I have been shooting at everything that moves and I think the only thing that takes damage is the flying bike
Put mines/c4 on a vehicle and shoot it with the revolver
Is it my team, or is the UH-60 WAY too fragile and shitty?
Whenever my team uses it, they die within 30-60 seconds
Oh gosh, they REALLY are bad. They're EXTREMELY SLOW and very easy to hit lol
Same, but my goodness I've gotten quite a number of AA kills now. Fun when the enemy uses it. This vehicle is sooooo bad
lol
ahhh nevermind I got a good pilot who knows how to use it
its your team lol
Yeah I just realized that, when the most recent game had actual good pilots
The game before that had people using the UH to HOVER over objectives and just...not move
I just can't understand why anyone would do that for more than a couple seconds AT MOST to drop off a squad
I just do the bf4 way. I do a low flank around the second objective and land on the ground to drop some players than I go back and pick up more.
Why do you want to? Just curious
I feel like it's just a worse transport helicopter, it needs a buff to the guns if it's only gonna have 2 of them and not 3
Less seats too, so to say it's better for transport and that makes up for it doesn't matter
BFP 50 says I need kills and assists when destroying an enemy vehicle with the M44
with the M44?
Is it just two challenges or both of that in the one challenge?
I mean yeah just use the c5 and the gun if you really have to, go onto a bot lobby on Kaleidescope and destroy a tuk tuk with c5 and the M44
Yeah I hope they buff the "new" heli
1 challenge, and requires 1 assist or 1 kill I think. Also how do you get a bot lobby?
nvm I just discovered server browsing
Who here play Battlefield 2042 on ps5? Got a quick question for something on ps5.
I played on PS5 for long time, what's the question.?
On ps5 version is there many players or it has AI on lobbies. Cause I got the ps4 version is 64 lobby.
PS5 has CrossPlay with PC, Xbox Series X-S so it has much more players than Old-Gen
Oh that good then. I get the version of it. Does it have full lobbies?
I always got full lobbies, but sometimes you wait for players in early morning but nothing that happens during the day
Managed to fix it?
No luck for me yet.
I don't know yet
I will check later today
Ever since the update the squad leader timer to change is broken
Bum squad leader hadn't done a damn thing all match and still hasn't been switched
trying to launch 2042 and im getting "warning: your save files are corrupt and could not be read" when trying to launch the game. any ideas?
i tried to repair the game in the ea app but it didnt fix it
Typical fucking Caspian tower snipers taking a whole chopper up there just to abandon it with me in it
I managed to keep that thing flying under fire surprisingly long, got a few spawns in over enemy points
So I’ve figured out how to not crash choppers
I was kinda disappointed that the uh60 didn’t have more seats for being a transport vehicle
5 seats ?
Or 6 ?
Guys have a question how can i change between scopes i have the 1.25x - 4.5x scope
Uh i think it's V when scoped in
I'm on ps4 not pc
no d pad is for the ability
R3
ty i will try that
R3
R3
Like pushing the right joystick
Not pushing hard enough
He'll eventually get to it don't worry
We all had to learn when we began playing
yea i just started playing few days ago
Game rly feels great trying to group actually w random squads and it's funny
What level are you young padawan ?
most of the things are new to me and there's too many fucking things that u need to know or do
17
Good good
Try unlocking vault guns as well some of those are really good
Guns which come from other BF games that have been transferred to AOW (which is the main mode you're probably playing)
Around 8
Those include A-91, ACW-R, M93R, Gol Magnum, AK-74u
Really ???
That's a lot
Wait no
I mean how many seats BlackHawk currently got ?
oh i think i already unlocked 1 or 2 bf3 guns but I'm trying to unlock sniper + m416 bf3 gun rn
i never played anything different then conquest
M416 I forgot that it's a really good AR
You should really unlock it imo
idk if it's good or trash but I'm almost there to unlock it
The team is aware of an ongoing issue where some of our PC players are experiencing an error prompt when attempting to start #Battlefield2042.
A fix is on the way, and we are aiming to get this PC-based hotfix out by the end of this week.
Really good if used properly
You need to spray with it
Or idk how you're saying it in English but you have to handle your fire correctly so it's a fucking laser beam
does anyone know what error code specifically they area referring to?
The "please launch your game from your distribution platform" I presume
Correct.
do you guys know what the quickest way to get "damage inflicted on enemy vehicles with primary weapons" is? to unlock the Rorsch MK-4
armour piercing ammunition
nah just throw c5 on an enemy vehicle and shoot it with your primary 
Anyone tryna run it up
Rather run it down
Far as I remember, 40mm AP grenades do the trick
The SFAR's launcher is your quickest way to those
There's also the NTW if you want to plink with it
thanks, i had a different error and thought it was that
just played for few days and Dice removed Rush XL again

and my game keep crashing wtx is going on
I restarted my pc and it is all good 👍
Hello you're one of the new mods ? 👋
Bringing your issue here because you were in the wrong chat
@void gorge
This is in reference to your message from yesterday, #general message
Since no one responded to it, I will
there's 3 issues here, the first issue is that EA uses its own launcher to launch and close the game, so yes its going to open the EA app. the second issue is that its 2024 and no one uses CDs anymore because they are obsolete. Thirdly, your issue can be solved if you look it up in the EA Answers website, but i will link this here for you in case you cant find it https://answers.ea.com/t5/General-Discussion/Changing-the-Battlefield-2042-Ingame-Language-in-EA-Play/m-p/10982755
hope that helps 
What does his question have to do with 2042? He was in the rigjt chat
he only ever plays 2042, his question is about 2042 
im going off of prior experience here, he literally only ever talks about 2042
like if hes talking about an issue with a game or launcher, its 2042 he's actually talking about
can we geta surprise server browser update 🫠
can we get 256p
make that 256p close quarters conquest
Is there anyone know som tricks or tips to master jets

Can we get 1k 
Anyone else having game crashes since the update?
I just crashed to desktop flying a pondhawk
No amigos
I guess it’s depends on server
When Capture the Flag for FNB 
Anyone having crashing issues are not on their own. Since the update on pc my game has also been crashinc
Hi chat
Just wanna ask how many times you guys have crashed from yesterday?
I repaired the game twice and it didn't work
Since yesterday, my game causes my computer to lock up and overheat, forcing me to do a hard reboot.
How difficult to fix the bugs? There's no problem before and EA/Dice are zero support thanks
hej !! I already crashed like 5 times XDD
Had to manually set my CPU fan and GPU fans to 100%, just so I can play without it overheating. 2042 wasn't great before the most recent update, but at least I didn't run the risk of damaging my hardware before.
okej tack for info !
PS5 pro enhancement for 2042 pls????
If you have a ps5 already what's the point in wasting 700 on the pro when they will release the 6 in 3 years?
64 is way more competitive than 128 🙂 random thought
Indeed it is
Battlefield will never be competitive
Battlefield is way to casual to be called competitive
im in a good match but hurricane francine is over me right now, im going to crash out if I lose power in this great game.
Golmud Railway 24/7 on top
CPU fan speed is configured in your BIOS, for the GPU you can customize the fan curve in software like MSI afterburner
also define overheating
75-85°C is completely normal temperature range for a GPU when in demanding games
CAN someone please help me
im trying to play 2042 on my pc with my buddy from seriex x
i cant find my buddy
any fix for this both our cross plays are on and were in an xbox party together
hey. does anyone have any fixes for not ebing able to move my mouse when in a match? like when im in the field?
I haven't been able to play, how is the UH-60 now that it is in the main game?
Just turn any gif or pic you want to use into a sticker

boo
Someone from Spain ?
Blasco is
i just rage quit because i was getting 1 shot constantly
sometimes i hate this game
and then you get a hit marker when literally only their head could have been hit, but its not a headshot?
ok
Can anybody spawn on the uh60 if it’s anywhere on the map
wow I'm in bad teams in roughly 95% of my matches
no one revives, no one gives ammo, no one goes on objectives
this game is legitimately not fun most of the time. I always wonder why I come back
Now I hope that delta force gets a bit rushed out the door so we can finally have some competition (although I REALLY wish they did not plagarized 2042 so heavily)
I rage uninstalled 3 weeks ago. So bad i installed MWIII. Now I'm re-downloading. Lol 😆
I wish I could rage uninstall
all I do is take a stupid HEALTHY break from the game and then I come back
I miss the days when my teammates were competent
I feel you. Sometimes it's good to touch grass or even play other games.
At least you have healthy server, middle east official servers are dead. Can only play portal sad.
Wait... what's up with the blue drip? Is there no white tags no more? Or did I finally move up after 2 years of 2042. Lol 😆 🤣
Oh its just a member tag
😕
That sucks
no, you're lucky; you aren't missing much by not being able to play this game
Not gonna lie I had fun at mwiii. But it was equally frustrating and just made me miss 2042.
I generally play no more than a few hours a week. I tried all day gaming to see if I could do it like the old days. I just can't. Doesn't matter if it's 2042, mw22, ow, or other fps games
The only game I came close to doing a gaming marathon more than a few hours, was Squad (in terms of fps games), but that's because Squad games can easily last 45+ minutes
I am looking forward to delta force. 2042 will have to do.
Until then
I tried Xdefiant. But it got dull fast.
Only complain about that game is the heli controls.
good thing for me that I don't fly helis in games!
I was playing the UH breakthrough mode, and I either get defending teams who don't know how to defend, or attacking teams who can't attack AT ALL
very bad luck in this game. Complete mood killer
Also it would be nice to see bullet impact so we can adjust easily when sniping.
Is there a good lmg I should try to grind for? I have been playing with the avancys for a bit and lmgs seem fun
the new one is pretty nice, also type 88 lmg is my favorite
also if you like lmgs, i recommend using the sfar
sfar with highpower drum?
ofc
I'll try to get that then. 330 kills to unlock the drum will be a pain tho, I couldn't get many kills the last time I tried to play with that gun
Eh I avoid using drums myself
You can always unlock all weapon attachments in solo/coop with bots
I would do it on redacted breakthrough
I don't think they should be available for high power
Not my GPU that overheats. Computer locked up, did a hard rebot, BIOS alert at startup telling me it was a CPU overheat (with a temp of 80 C). My normal CPU tem pis ~35 C, in most games ~45-50 C.
80 degrees CPU is not worth a reboot though
You wanna be under 85C ideally for long term use
Bit anything under 100 is safe
Your BIOS probably is set to start freaking out around 80
big brain plays, will give this a go
you have a hotspot issue then on the cooler, likely the paste has expired/not making contact properly, if it shutdown then its that or b your cooler isnt enough to sustain the heat transfer the processor is generating
what is with 2042 just bsoding my laptop with a memory management error?
ive never had this problem before
happened 3 times already
If I bought BF2042 on Steam, is it quicker and less glitchy to launch from the EA app?
It’d save a couple hundred megs of ram at least
Steam passively uses a fair amount of memory that you can shave off by exiting the app entirely when not in use
Of course, it MUST be my hardware that suddenly started acting up, and only in 1 game (any other game, I have no heat issues)
run space marines 2 or another heavy game youll get a similar result, isnt anything new
That's one hell of an (ass)umption you make. I play many hardware intensive games (far more than 2042, which is less graphically impressive than even its predecessor). And in NONE of them, have long play sessions caused my computer to overheat and require a hard reboot. Until this week, and ONLY in 2042.
2042 is unoptimized hot garbage. Idk why are people are surprised people run into so many issues.
bro stop the cope

you are overdosing on mass amounts of copium if you think this game runs optimally
never said that
i dont have heat issues however i do notice that this game does run a little hotter than others comparable or graphically superior games.

so if you have a large library of games and you notice one running like dogschite is it your hardware or the game?
answer the question after lowering copium levels
if you have a large library of games and 98% of them are GPU bound whilst the frostbite engine uses the processor much more heavily, you wont (notice) the problem
Can they make it so a lobby doesn’t kick you out when it’s actually about to start
I just lost a perfectly good squad because of this shit
Oh fuck everything I just lost a perfectly good SERVER
Because it couldn’t wait five seconds
Piece of shit matchmaking
seriously i hate when i read people listing their problems and people like you come in with unhelpful "oH ItS uR haRDwArE, i MusT HaVe beTTeR tHaN u"
no
is 15.7 GB of ram enough to run 2042?
seriously that is what you are doing lad
its not, stop projecting ty, i never said it was a hardware issue
so stop making things up please
i have buddies with great rigs having issues with this game and running tons of others just fine
depends what programs you have in the background
should be enough though
discord etc then maybe not but depends on your use case
this
will it have to be on low graphics?

what kind of graphics (good or bad)
do you have bfv?
no im seeing if i can get my friend bf2042 on his laptop (i have bf2042)
God just give me a FUCKING SERVER BROWSER
yes
I KEEP GETTING DUMPED IN EMPTY LOBBIES
OR WORSE: STADIUM
Jesus this game is such a piece of shit
And the only reason I’m playing it is because it’s the only Battlefield anyone plays in this godforsaken country
yea OCE BF1 and BFV only certain times of the day
i see AI tbaging people they just killed
whats the laptop model?
Jesus fucking Christ in heaven give me an actual lobby with humans in it
ill check
if you can find out i can tell you
they all on a moderate xp portal game usually lol
13th gen intel(R) core(TM)
not enough need to know the model of the laptop, not the processor
Open task manager and share your specs.
of the laptop
tell him to type system info on the search, it will display the model number
im not good with laptops
tell him to do the following:
hold the win key and press the r key at the same time, type msinfo32 into the box, hit enter, look for the system model box or product name
Processor 13th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-1335U 1.30 GHz
Installed RAM 16.0 GB (15.7 GB usable)
System type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor
Pen and touch Pen and touch support with 10 touch points
he has the same laptop as me
and your model is..?
is it the product ID
yes just send that
product id 00330-80000-00000-AA457
that is your windows id..
do this
the laptop has a iris igpu, he can probably run the game, but at low settings
i wouldnt be expecting any decent performance
ok thanks
And I am reminded of why I stopped playing 128 in the first place
Jesus these maps are fucking dogshit
And SOFLAMing aircraft is awful difficult when they’re over a kilometre away at most times
Starting to think my issues with flying choppers is more about FIGHTING with them
Because I’m not so bad at flying a black hawk
Leave the shooting to someone else
Helps that the thing can take a hell of a beating
And you know you’ve pissed someone off when you chase down an enemy hawk full of guys and not long after they get shot down you start getting TGM alerts out the ass
2042 goat
Why isn't the fucking game saving my chosen skins and guns please ?
Everytime I launch a new match
My preferences are all reverted back to whatever it was months ago when I stopped playing the game
the game's a rushed out mess, BF4 was more stable than this
I mean almost 3 years after launch we still have bugs like this
It's crazy
they. do not. care.
I just hope they stop supporting that shit even though they already did
To start teasing their next game
This game is the end result of what happens when a company tries to chase trends instead of doing their own thing that people actually want.
it plays like a bootleg version of modern cod titles
That's not a compliment.
I don't care what they do with 2042, I just want whatever the next game is to be functional at launch, it's been what, 13 years since Bad Company 2 launched? That was the last time we had a game working right from the start.
We gotta wait until next year lol
I'm not above new things, it just needs to be at its core functional and enjoyable to play multiplayer-wise and here's hoping they don't forget the fucking campaign again.
It better be finished after 4 years of development
I just hope they go back to their roots
BF1's honestly the last 'early 2000's' style game. It's got everything anyone'd ever want.
Aside from the worst setting imaginable
Setting had promise with the half modern half future asthetic. Could've quite literally picked up where the final stand dlc left off with BF4.
The premise would've been awesome if the game wasn't a 'hero shooter' and practically a tax write-off.
I mean hell, the setting could be anything, it just needs competent people working on it that're allowed to make a game without helicopter corperate meddling
another game crash
That's why BFV sucked so horridly at launch; most veteran members of the company's development teams quit because they had such little freedom to make the game in any sort of accurate manner alongside the revisionism that pissed off pretty much everyone. And worse still DICE is a Scandinavian company!
what is happening
I've never had this, but the game occasionally freezes and ends up crashing
Dice has fallen
It's BF2042, a rushed patchwork mess of poor decisions.
I call DICE games 'Amtrak.OS'
rolled snake eyes
I've never had the game crash
in the last 2 years
and I play regularly
BFV crashes every time I load into a multiplayer match
Whack
a mole
omg stfu already, i think this discussion pops up every 2 days in this server
We need nyphoon to come back and have em fight it out again
A fix for the issue where a small number of PC players are experiencing an error when attempting to load #Battlefield2042 is on the way!
The team is working hard to get Hotfix #8.1.0.1 rolled out on Monday, 16th at 08:00 UTC for PC players.
Stay tuned for further updates.
The team is aware of an ongoing issue where some of our PC players are experiencing an error prompt when attempting to start #Battlefield2042.
A fix is on the way, and we are aiming to get this PC-based hotfix out by the end of this week.
Well BFV and 2042 aren't magically games that're good now are they? If you don't like what I've to say that's fine. Just ignore my posts and move along.
Complacency with derogative declines in quality and substance is a major part of the issue. If we don't voice our complaints when need be on game elements that don't work, then that only enables any future titles to become worse and worse.
It's my angle on things, I can't force anyone to agree with me on this. I enjoy talking about different perspectives but if someone's going to be rude then I usually just pass 'em on.
Exactly. I can run games from 5 years ago, to 6 months ago, some of which on maximum settings (and still graphically intense, with a lot of processing usage). And STILL not have an overheat problem... Yet Mr Deco here, was quick to surmise it MUST be a "hotspot" issue, with the cooling paste being bad/old etc (which FYI, I replaced only a couple of weeks ago). I work in IT, I've been working with computers for more than 20 years (not just gaming).
I asked if others had issues with the game causing crashes/overheat problems due to a recent patch, since previously I could run 2042 without the risk of cooking my hardware. Until I'm certain this has been resolved, I avoid playing the game at all (I have an entire library of other games after all)
Funnily enough to add to this; Older games run smoother than more modern ones on even more prohibitedly more restrictive hardware. My XB360 can run games at 30fps at 1280P.
why pretend like users have any input to the direction of future titles, feedback is only ever used for post launch adjustments. Unless you are a higher up or on the board of directors you are just shouting in the middle of the ocean
corpos always have the final say
it's worth a shot, we voted with our money, we're the only ones that're the difference between DICE surviving another fiscal year or shutting its doors. And if banded together under a unity of desire to see a functional game that we'll actually pay for, they'll listen or lose even more money.
BFV and 2042 were colossal failures, within a month 2042 became a PSN free monthly game to tray and make back their net loss by making the inital game free in the hopes we'd drool over skins and microtransactions.
people will always buy the games regardless, thats why games always have the highest playercount at launch.
And what good's that when the inital numbers are bled off within the first month and the game is refunded?
retention will always be the hardest part in any title because its almost impossible to keep players coming from other games trying it out
due to sunk cost
BF1's maintaining 2k people daily on PSN just about.
And that's only within two or three timezones.
ok? there are many factors why people play the other games such as not being able to run newer games and just enjoying the time period and setting
doesn't automatically mean its a "Better" game
Not really, BFV and 2042 were such disapointments almost everyone said 'this is shite' and went back to 1. 2042 especially.
Can't say 2042 was all that bad, it brought so many people to Battlefield 1.
2042 did nothing for Bf1, people that play only MMS will not play BF1 and BFV
mms?
modern military shooters
BF4 then
bf4 is not a good game, its an unbalanced mess with still many exploits that make it unfun. people just like it because every gun is a laser
same argument for 2042 then, at least in BF4 the maps aren't just 'open field with no cover;.
Not counting silk road but even then, the dunes and dugouts break up the open expansiveness of it all.
And in top of that, community is pretty shit
None still
EA fucked us bro. No regular role, not even legacy regular role for people that got the role. Boosted is essentially paying for pink color and that’s it. They said they are working on it. Bruh it feels like it been for ages now.
Soon… when? Who knows 🤷♂️
Me, MMS all day over historical shooters anyday of my life
there's an #screenshots-and-clips channel with permissions
I’m talking about freely use gifs and stuff in here, general chat, other games
ah, they're still reformatting the server, should be fixed soon enough I'd say.
Pity though, you're missing out on quite a fair bit by not at least trying BF1
Better off putting in more hours in 2042 not missing out on gg
Just give us bf3 remastered with additional new maps and better gun customization
I played every BF game to this day excluding 2142
Modern BF or modern theme games is just more addicting and more appeal to me
oh
Also at the time it was back to back historical games. I was getting so tired of them. Still tired of them today
im fine with them
so as long as a game contains better solo mode
which 1 immensely lacked
V is no excuse either
Or give us a legacy collection, consisting of all titles from 1942-bf3 with all online features. If CoD can give us MW1 and 2 remastered and we can get Metro definitive edition, why not just give us the same with Battlefield's legacy. Portal mode was supposed to be that, but it's so barebones and horridly terrible I'd rather just pay 100USD for a legacy collection battlefront classic style with all multiplayers being 1:1 with a few tweaks for the sake of gameplay.
solo mode.. who plays that
BF1 has a campaign
you mean bot matches like the original battlefront games or black ops 1?
both sides
BO1 offered separate rank system
while og Battlefront has good variety of modes and options to change
I miss BO1 to this day, I a full blown remastered like they did to MW1
Good point, offline functionality is great if you loose internet or just want to practice a new loadout without fear of it not working
for COD side, there is already a bot mod
that makes the experience much better and enjoyable
now it is battlefield turn
you cant separate player base with two different mode. aka portal mode. no one plays on hardcore 1 bullet pistol kill or fake bot server pretending legit
BF3 VU was this close to being great
idgaf bruh. Id rather play all maps and modes without being abused by intoxicating players
battlefield is a multiplayer game bro..
Good thing it’s PC only 
and I will still say this-- all shooter games should have solo multiplayer mode
no matter what
consules not going away .. I wish they would
or just being able to play dead game modes because as far as I can tell, BF4's servers are rented only these days with official ones no longer there outside of a Japanese conquest one for some reason.
thats why!
Most play consoles because of the fact it's physical media
Console is meh. Its fun to play on but full advantage of gaming is on PC 
these shitty players and admins dont want to host dead game modes and underrated maps
annoying trope in muliplyar settings
want silk road? fuck you! golmud 24/7!
i dont agree
If I had the money I'd rent a base game conquest server with fair rules and rotation.
Fuck community hosted servers ong, only due to badmins.
If they are on PC lol
bfv had ea hosted servers which were good
Not true in some cases, because keep in mind that BF4 is better optimized for 360/PS3 era because that's what everyone had at the time so the PC/PS4/XBO version of the game didn't have the maps properly optimized for 'next gen' peramiters so the experience was a 360/PS3 sized map but with a PS4/XBO playercount
I always main EA servers than community ones
coop mode in V is embarrassingly boring and repetitive
it's only really there for gold and mint gun camos
“Better optimized”
bruh, I waited in line at GameStop for the midnight release to get my disc with my dad. Couldn’t play it for months, couldn’t even play a match more then a min before I get insta kicked due to server issues
I mean after the at launch crashing netcode issues
BF4 was so bad at launch they even got sued
I played BF4 on my 360 and it's so much better there
it was arcade style but still grounded enough for more 'milsim' styles
Got better over time yes but still buggy asf and messy asf. WR devs said they had to fix up so many codes to actually make WR mod fully
It was a great balance honestly
you wern't wendy from wendy's you were just a soldier.
tfw when a regular soldier has more personalitiy than heroes
If they wanted a goofy ahh cartoon style game they could've brought back Battlefield heros

"get yer dicks in the dirt they're gonna strafe us!"
Hell, Bad company 2 was the best because you'd get reemed over failing a multiplayer match
remember that one map with the three flags and it was all snowy with the APCs. It had the massive radar dish in the background and if you lost as the americans you'd hear the guy say 'the fuck is this?! where is everybody?! We have to fall back"
Specialist have more personality than a bland character for a class
BC2 was top tier
BF4 or BF2MC
bring back rude commanders
'don't beh ubsat dats gust hew id habbens sumdiems' aahhh cringe
quoting the cringe ass voice lines 'don't be upset that's just how it happens sometimes'
O
If I wanted overwatch I'd buy overwatch, cringefield 2042 sucked cheeks
I enjoy playing 2042 more than I play BF1/V 
I don't give a f**k about my player character having a personality. I'd much rather have greater customization of my appearance (why FPS games never adopted that particular RPG element... character customization). Battlefield should never have gotten Specialists. One of many issues 2042 had until they were forced to bring back classes. But since 2042 wasn't designed for classes, it still isn't good (better for sure, but not as good as previous games designed for classes)
Camos is customization 
hero shooters could work if the 'heros' weren't generic 90's cliche cardboard cutouts
Also they were about to implement Specialist in BFV but it wasn’t polished enough so they moved it to 2042 
'totally tubular' 'i'm the dark and edgy one' 'I'm the wheelchair one' and so on, they're more one note than a modern rap song
it never should've been added at all! battlefield was an escape from all that hero shooter cringefest crap, and now that it's followed suit we've just said 'ah fuck it, bf1's still active'
To a very minor degree sure. If one considers "change of clothes" to be customization. I'm talking overall appearance, making the 10 Assault players on a team, 5 Support players, 7 engineers etc, all look distinctly unique. A change of clothes, does not do that.
Specialist dosent really change the games. Also 2042 isn’t a hero shooter 
BF1 kept it to a standardized thing outside of guns and vehicles
hero shooter, specialists, operators, all the same thing, just different wording
Agreed on the cliche, and the cringe of launch-era 2042 Specialists. Then there's also the issue with some specialists having broken/OP abilities that they alone have access to (and have since required nerf after nerf after nerf)
Negative
You're arguing the semantics between a formed log and dihedra, it's all shit regardless of what form it takes.
Hero shooter have restricted weapon categories to a certain class like all other battlefield games. 2042 have unrestricted weapon categories for all classes
outside of the 'ultimate' abilities
Nothing really worse than getting a Lis rocket up the ass, that you can barely dodge, and get very little indicator of where it's coming from until it's almost time for impact. Or having McKay with his super-grapple getting to places noone else can get to, and then having entire squads spawn on him. These type of "abilities" need to be abolished for BF2025
That doesn’t change anything. Specialist is part of said class type still but only specialized in a focus thing
or you know, just put all that into pilot loadouts in Titanfall 3
The lis rocket might be the easiest thing to notice in this game lol
EA wants to implement all this shite into a game? Give us TF3 goddamn it!
it will if people stop playing apex and unify under the demand to make it come
I cannot stress this enough; they follow the money vote with your wallets people!
Says a Lis player, no doubt
They are making a game in the TF universe. But I’m saying it’s not gonna be TF3
Nah
People will bitch and complain if they can’t see a red light coming towards them
I bitch and complain, when I see the red light coming, dodge out of the way and STILL get hit by the rocket. Because it shouldn't be able to still maneuver freely when launched from halfways across the map !
Majority of my time playin games is music blasted loud asf more than the game volume 
1 sound among many... You may have bat ears, but most of us don't.
And I still can noticed it, cuz I be aware and not be blind as a bat
You can see the bright red light miles and miles away
Reading disability? I just said, I see the big red light coming, and still get hit after making sure I dodged out of the way. Clearly it still maneuvers far too easily at long range, or has too big of an explosion radius.
They nerf the rocket turning mobility ages ago. It’s more easier to doge it than before
Numerous times where I'm running between objectives and can only hear it behind me and give it a lil juke and easily get out of the way
Fax
if it's 'apex ledgends story mode' I'm going to scooter ankle myself
a hero shooter is a shooter with heroes.
Thats it
In a lil bird, I do a 360 back spin if I’m still. Or tit hard left or right of I’m moving to dodge it
So you do have a reading disability. I said it's either too maneuvrable OR too big explosion radius. You only read "maneuverability" so naturally, "HAHA, F U you suck" (my interpretation of your meaning, which probably isn't too far off accurate)
It’s not hard to read it
I.e Battlefield 2042. Specialists are Heroes with another name. And it's a Shooter.
You can also fake them out easily
You can go to the left, when it gets close you move down right and slow down to descend quickly. Not hard at all
Whatever you feel comfortable doing.
People just lack awareness when they see lis rocket
I cant say that any of the 2042 characters have had as much personality as my BF1 character panicking in a trench.
That much is true
The class but itself have personality not the character itself
Okay, Karen. Sorry, but I won't blow smoke up DICE butt, for poor game development (though you certainly seem willing to)
I have plenty awareness, good hearing and good eyesight. And if 1 weapon can still destroy people from anywhere across the map, then clearly something is wrong. And don't mistake my criticism for "he must hate Battlefield" (I really don't, bought every game since 2002, preordered most of them). 2042 just made me less likely to preorder or even purchase the next game, because of the poor development decisions made by this version of DICE (fairly well known, most of the OG devs are no longer with the company)
Not a Karen, I’m a guy
He says, as though guys can't be Karen's...
The only time I’ve felt a proper connection with any specialist is when a grenade landed at the feet of my Crawford and he just shouted ”Fuck off!” in the most disbelieving tone of voice
Also my name isn’t Karen 
as in the loadout?
I do not know what you mean
Battlefield 3's nameless soldiers (aka classes) had more personality than most of 2042's Specialists. Before DICE went all PC, and removed the very realistic military swearing from the game.
The weapons restriction, the gadgets ect. Also all other past BF games is hero shooters 
I’m more concerned that they don’t even let us swear in chat
Currently generation gets to but hurt compared to before
Crawford yells fuck like 50% of the time you destroy a vehicle lol
F word! EA help!
Same mentality as "We can't let players chat with each other ingame, because it might hurt someones fee-fees". Meanwhile, players can still cause plenty of grief towards each other, long before they brought back "all chat"
honestly, 2042 still falls short. When every character can pick any weapon then there is less personality to the specialist. Ironically, the specialists are the least specialized out of any class system
It’s not a hero shooter 
So many supports using sniper rifles because they can give themselves as much ammo as they could ever need
It's a Shooter, and it has Heroes. It's a Hero Shooter. No matter how much you try to whitewash it.
it really is that simple
Hero shooters have weapon category restrictions like past bf games
hero shooters have heroes
There is a difference
there really isnt. Its a broad term
I said it multiple times now
And you have been wrong multiple times now
Negative
That's another thing they need to bring back for NextBattlefield: Weapon category restrictions for classes. It messes up the overall balancing in the game, letting anyone do anything.
Toxic talking? 100% chance of toxicity to follow...
A hero shooter is a sub-genre of shooter games which emphasize "hero" characters that have distinctive abilities and/or weapons that are specific to them. A hero shooter can be a first-person shooter or a third-person shooter.
2042 don’t have any weapon categories restricted to them. Weapon categories in 2042 is open for any class
Toxicity confirmed.
Same ngl
"distinctive abilities and/or weapons that are specific to them"
I.e Battlefield 2042. Unless you're gonna say every Specialist has McKay's grapple? Dozer's shield? Lis's rocket? It's a Hero Shooter. And you just admitted it.
A hero shooter is a sub-genre of shooter games which emphasize "hero" characters that have distinctive abilities and/or weapons that are specific to them. A hero shooter can be a first-person shooter or a third-person shooter.
Specialist is a character specialized in a certain class
The person gadget sure but not the whole class concept in BF 2042
its like when team fortress players try to twist the definition to say that "oh this isnt a hero shooter, its a class shooter" just cause they dont like the association
Again, a Hero Shooter. McKay is an Assault class. So he's specialized in a certain class. And he has distinct abilities no other Hero has.
plenty of hero shooters split their heroes into categories
Every specialist in that class can use any weapon and any gadget
But only 1 Hero in that Class can use McKay's grapple.
McKay has a distinct ability that no one else has. Your very definition of what is a Hero Shooter 😄
Recon class for example. Use any made gadget, weapon available to them no matter what. But they have their own specialist ability and that’s it
cant read politics and eat chicken breast now
McKay specialize in assault class. He’s different from other assault to have a grapple. Everything else is the same for all other specialists
If every Assault Hero had McKay's grapple, you might have a point. But you said Heroes are "distinctive abilities/and or weapons that are specific to them"
So exactly what we've been arguing all along. Glad you finally admitted you were wrong.
im sorry, all day?
So I need to quote you again? "Distinctive abilities/and or weapons that are specific to them"
If that's your definition Ouija, then you just admitted 2042 is a Hero Shooter.
how long has this backflipping over definitions been going on for?
All day, it haven’t been 24 hrs, so it can’t be all day
I'm sorry, when did I say "All day" ?
I said "all along"
I never said 2042 is a hero shooter. Stop twisting my words around
I'm not twisting anything. I'm quoting YOUR defintion of a Hero Shooter, which is precisely what 2042 is. Game, Set, Match.
nevermind I misread.
I really need coffee
2042 is NOT a hero shooter. It’s a game that have specialist in a CERTAIN said class with a unique ability and that’s it.
you provided a definition that contradicted your thesis.
Which is exactly how you defined what a Hero Shooter is. Sorry, but I'm only using your own definition of it.
A hero shooter is a sub-genre of shooter games: bf2042 is a shooter
which emphasize "hero" characters: specialists are unique characters and each have distinct backstories and whatnot
that have distinctive abilities and/or weapons that are specific to them: "and/or" means it just needs one of the two. Specialists have distinctive abilities
A hero shooter can be a first-person shooter or a third-person shooter: 2042 is a first person shooter.
by the definition you provided, 2042 fits the bill
Perfect! I return to my previous comment: Game, Set, Match !
I’ll let you guys/girls be. I’m done with this conversation. I never said 2042 is a hero shooter
No, you just defined 2042 is a Hero Shooter. Semantics kiddo.
not directly. Instead you said that a hero shooter is a game with a specific set of qualities which 2042 has.
I never defined
I searched up the definition for you.
I never once said 2042 is a hero shooter
Too tired to quote you a 4th time. You lost kid.
so do you believe the definition you provided is incorrect?
Obviously not is a IS in your book
Clearly you believe it’s correct.

Anyways I said I’m done with this convo
I see nothing wrong with it. A hero shooter is a shooter with heros, nothing more. The definition is just more precise about what a "hero" means
You posted the definition of what a Hero Shooter is. All of which, can be applied to 2042. Logically, that makes 2042 a Hero Shooter.
"I said I'm done with this convo", and yet you're still here.
Stop mentioning me.
Aww...
I said I’m done, and I said it’s NOT a hero shooter
Okay Karen
Not a girl or name Karen
Okay Karen
your replies are very pathetic tbh
Perhaps it is. But internally I'm laughing at Ouija losing the discussion by using his own words against him.
if you feel the need to say that then you are likely insecure about it.
Dont know why you would be, but its clear as day
I dont know, nor do I care
I'd consider launch 2042 to be a hero shooter, after the class update, eh, it's a bit sketchy. There is one thing that's definite, however. 2042 is not a great game.
It's the best game ever
a game with mouse input that doesn't work properly doesn't qualify.
i'd say i hope DICE fixes that on the next game but why would they fix something that they spent a few years pretending doesn't exist?
Id argue a hero needs to fit the following criteria:
- the playable kits need distinct characters and backstories
- the characters need exclusive abilities and/or weapons.
So long as im playing as "mackay" or "rao" or some shit, its a hero shooter.
Just ignore ToxicDasher. He's clearly been doing too much weed, to have any braincells left.
Next battlefield game is claimed to be going back to the old ways again like BFV and before
That's funny cause I'm not the one getting blocked
We don’t know till official news
Hopefully less like BFV/BF1.
id be very suprised if they tried a hero shooter again
Pro tip: You can still get mentioned or replied to, even if you block someone.
I want it similar to be like BF4 ngl with the content load it have
I wouldnt mind "modern day bf1", that game went hard with the sandbox
I want the old BF4 passive perk system back also
Nobody asked
plus trench warfare is back in fashion
I would because sliding is a good mechanic for infantry to have.
and clearly DICE doesn't agree since they made it worthless in BF1.
i've legit talked to people who have played BF1 and they didn't even know there was a sliding mechanic, that's how worthless they made it.
eeh, I disagree. I really dont like sliding in combat and what that does to pacing.
Also one good thing about blocked people. Even if they mention you. It still don’t proc the pings from mentions

How about setting Battlefield in a new time period? 1980s cold war? Or maybe a reboot of 2142? Personally, I'd love if they could do WW2 again, done right! BFV looked nice, but they did many mistakes.
I do, because i don't think having a shooter be faster paced is a bad thing.
Sliding is good in games ngl. I don’t mind it
its not necessarily a good thing either. I think a lot of people are a bit tired of every shooter trying to be fast paced.
plus a slower pace gives you more freedom to do things with the sandbox since there is less pressure to be always moving 24/7.
True, but most people still can't resist clicking that "Blocked message" line.
i'm a bit tired of every shooter having fucking hero abilities and a lot of cheesy bullshit.
i don't think the faster pace is the issue.
DF is coping 2042 
this too. These are unrelated things.
A return to Classes without Specialist/Hero BS, with a strong focus on teamplay, with classes actually working together. That's all I want.
"A strong focus on teamplay" you gonna make a small scale competitive mode?
because that's the only way that's going to fucking happen.
You have large scale, most people aren't gonna really try to do "teamplay" with anyone outside of their squad. You try to force it, the game becomes shit, slow, and annoying to play.
No. But most previous games had classes working together even in 64 player matches. Now... you have McKay grappling to a stupid location, 3 squadmates spawn on him, then you have 1 guy with an ammo crate, providing infinite ammo to all of them, using any weapon of their choice. That's not teamplay. That's broken A F.
Like in BF1 I can hop on a cannon or set up traps and be effective with it while in other games I would be quickly flanked and surrounded due to the faster pace. Its a question of which to prioritize and which things players prefer.
Personally I think the sandbox is a unique strength to BF and therefore is higher priority.
"Back in the day", Battlefield had a strong focus on the rock/paper/scissors of balance. And it WORKED. That balancing has been lost in recent years.
it's crazy that you're talking to me about most previous games when most of my experience playing previous games is not having an engineer near me to take out vehicles, not having medics who will consistently revive, and having supports that have their brains turned off so hard they don't even let go of mouse 1 when they're proned on the floor to drop an ammo box.
im talking about the pacing of combat, nothing about specialists
don't talk to me about previous games, previous games are most of my experience with this fucking franchise.
I didn't talk about recon because you'd never see 'em, they're in spawn trying to cosplay chris kyle and not fucking helping at all.
In this regard, we are in fact on the same side. I played this franchise since 1942.
And for the record, in most matches I play as Support. I heal/revive everyone in sight. Never getting a thank you, and frequently getting yelled at for "not having a lot of KILLS" - meanwhile, I'm usually at the top of Support score.
That's the AVERAGE experience.
You try to force "Teamplay" you make the game worse.
Because people are not going to wanna fucking bother.
I just happened to not like the settings but yes it was really good because it was immersive, it had a lot of content and it was balanced well enough
SMG08 go brrrrrr
Idk I didn't play it much
I never mentioned Specialists, nor did I imply Specialists.
The rock/paper/scissors of old, was when Infantry was great at taking out tanks, tanks were great at taking out choppers, and choppers would take out infantry.
SMG08 GO BRRRRRRRRRR
then what the fuck are you talking about?
I just said what I was talking about?
in relation to my comment
Like, i'm a firm believer that you shouldn't try to force "teamplay".
They tried that with Attrition in BFV. Everyone hated it.
I actually quite liked attrition, its a fun resource management mechanic
everyone hated it so hard they removed it.
Okay my bad
Most People hated it so hard they removed it.
I'm gonna be real with you I don't play a multiplayer shooter to play a resource management sim on top of that.
I don't think they should force teamplay either. But they certainly don't reward teamplay enough, as is.
I mean how would you reward it, really? What would you consider a teamplay action that would be worth rewarding?
I like games where my decisions matter. Probably the same reason I dont like being able to aggressively slide around to push people.
When you're playing on a server with 63/127 other people, you're just going to have to accept that like in war, your individual decisions do not matter all that much.
Also, granted, BFV never had any consistent vision for its gameplay in its entire life. It is as if someone threw BF1, BF2, and BF Heroes into a blender and slapped a BF on it
Unless you are exceptionally skilled at the game.
but even then that's not a guarantee of success.
Just a better chance.
to clarify: where my decisions matter to my own perfomance. Where I am actually rubbing some braincells together instead of throwing myself into the meatgrinder and hoping I see the enemy before he sees me
Is servers are down?
I don't have the exact numbers in my head, but...
If I get 50 XP for killing someone, and only 100 XP for capturing a control point, I'd rather take my chances killing 2 or more enemies. Meanwhile, working as a squad, doesn't give you anything (older games, they had squad leaders able to call in special gear, or V1 rockets).
They generally always do tho. That's the difference between a rando and someone who knows what they're doing, they know what decisions matter.
Okay, but consider this, killing enemies is a teamplay action.
You are not going to be able to do any objective play with the enemies still alive.
In some cases more than others. If I have to make meaninful choices, such as "do I heal now or save for later", "do I stay near the ammo crate or move further away", "do I spawn at a teammate or on a point with an ammo box" then there is more of an emphasis on this for personal success. I find that fun, it makes a deeper game.
killing enemies is a teamplay action.
I do not understand how BF players cant seem to get this
So is healing/reviving others, but the healers who actually DO their job (like me, generally speaking), aren't given enough credit. When they can make the entire difference between capturing a point, and losing it, by keeping the rest of the squad/team alive to perform their teamplay action of killing the enemies. --- So great, you have 100 kills, I have none. You get all the praise for 100 kills. I get none, despite having 500 support score (just throwing random numbers out there).
That's like, moment-to-moment stuff, though. All of that is already in the game, all of that is factors that good players have to consider.
yeah, moment-to-moment decisions.
I enjoy emphasis on those.
Yes and No. A tank standing at the other side of the map lobbing shells at 1 random enemy at a time, instead of being among the rest of the team, providing cover/close support etc, that's not as much teamplay as some might think. Tanks have more than 1 seat, so that driver off on the edge of the map, is really being more of a d**k than a team player.
instead of being among the rest of the team, providing cover/close support etc
Whether this is a good idea depends a lot on the bf game in question
Okay, but here's the thing about that, reviving is not always a net positive action, are you reviving teammates when there aren't enemies around to immediately kill them? Are the teammates that are getting revived just die immediately anyway? Like, I think that's a primary reason why you see a lot of people who are more skilled just simply not revive as much, because they don't want to revive people when they are busy trying to clear an area, or reviving someone who is just going to die anyway. Most higher level players don't give that much of a shit about XP anyway, and i'd argue keeping enemies off of a point makes more of a difference for capturing it.
The philosophy is different between vehicle/infantry play, I can't speak for vehicles cause I don't play 'em.
In terms of infantry gameplay, killing enemies is a teamplay action.
Someone who gets a fuckton of kills in a match is contributing to the team.
Because that's enemies that can't defend/take objectives.
It's like i said earlier on another channel.
I think a big problem with this community is that a lot of people in it just actively hate good players.
ye
Like, they see someone who's really good at the game and they're like "lol look at this guy not reviving teammates, go back to cod nerd"
For many their only experience with "good players" is watching enders act like a prick
I mean, if i operated on his level and all I got was people who are not able to do what i do just being a shithead at me for the crime of being good at a video game, then yeah, I would probably act like a bit of a prick.
I don't think that's necessarily unjustified. Like I said, the BF community hates good players and I don't think it's unreasonable for those good players to return the favor.
Like i said elsewhere, people literally streamsniped and harassed a really good helicopter pilot on 2042 for the crime of being really good at the video game. Did that so hard that he stopped streaming and playing the game.
I don't think that's a good attitude for a community to have, especially on an FPS game.
justified or not, that has colored player's perception.
Maybe, but that doesn't make the hatred of good players justified.
never said it did
For some reason people just think that you're not allowed to be good at Battlefield.
for vehicles, this is likely a result of how much a good pilot can dominate a lobby. You dont really see this for infantry much outside of reddit.
Yeah but I don't think that's necessarily the fault of the pilot.
Aircraft operate on a fundamentally different level than everything else in a combined arms shooter. To be honest, I feel like if DICE actually wanted things to be balanced, they wouldn't have it in the game at all.
its not. At the same time, when the infantry cannot do anything due to the pilot, then theyre not really going to care how much effort the pilot took to get to that point.
Yeah. Like I said. I think this problem could be avoided if DICE wanted to do so.
I dont think it requires removal though.
I think one of the bigger mistakes was having players choose a tank type rather than having a specific roster for the map. AA tanks are, mostly, a hard counter that can keep pilots in check. But with the newer tank system they arent guarenteed, or can be considered a throw pick.
Maybe. I'm gonna be honest. I have no experience with vehicles. I've just not had that much interest in vehicle gameplay, I like the infantry gameplay in this franchise when it works.
unfortunately it hasn't worked, but still.
I'm also mostly an infantry guy, but the AA tanks are, frankly, so braindead to use that Im confident in calling them a hard counter
It is also another reason I like BF1 since the wooden planes mean that every support has an anti aircraft weapon better than the stinger: their own gun. It really helps keep aircraft from being too overwhelming without making a class burn a gadget slot for it.
yeah but I just don't like BF1's infantry gameplay.
After the slide nerfs it's like a gimped BF4.
well, like I said before its part of the reason I like it. There is more risk to pushing someone, I cant just run like a chicken with my head cut off and get saved by the element of suprise. And it does have quite the skill ceiling, 1 seems to have some of the craziest sweats I've seen in a bf game.
that's cause weapon balance is bad and the game is really simplistic mechanics wise.
It does not take a lot to be really good at BF1.
I have a 2 K/D on BF1 and i'm generally trash, I can barely manage a 1.2 on BF4.
it doesn't have a high skill ceiling.
In fact the skill ceiling is quite low, the game is just cheesy as fuck and most people who play it are playing it for "the immersion"
not really. Theres a few busted weapons but you dont really need them to wipe the lobby. Weapons in BF1 are, at most, as mechanically deep as BF4, and often have more going on. Only real crutch is the sweet spot mechanic.
you cannot microburst anymore so you have to actually account for your weapons bloom, and can fight against it by being more precise with your shots.
microbursting is accounting for the bloom but okay
its bypassing the bloom
Also, i'd disagree with that in case of the Support's mechineguns
it's accounting for it by making it a nonissue
yeah, exactly
the machineguns with inverted bloom and and overheat mechanic?
yeah but they all have bipods by default, BF4 you have to waste an attachment slot for that, and also, bipods just automatically deploy if you get in a window.
They dont all have bipods, thats based on variant. I also wouldnt call pressing a button to bipod much of a skill cieling
you don't even have to press a button
also i wouldn't say that's a skill ceiling either, in fact i think bipod support machineguns is fairly cheese.
same with the shotguns, sweetspot, and the SMG08.
I agree with the shotguns, though that has not changed in any bf
it's never stopped being an issue and i will always call it what it is.
fair enough
like
I don't think the SMG08 should've been added to the game.
Like, I think an 84 round SMG for Assault is a bit much.
08's not a bad concept its balance is just fucked.
it apparently used to have a lower fire rate, but they buffed it after launch for some reason
But I wouldnt say the one weapons invalidates the entirety of bf1's gunplay.
no clue either
it doesn't. I'd say the existence of visual recoil does.
They removed that shit in BF4 and that was the best decision they ever made
honestly the main reason people blew the "random bullet deviation" out of proportion then spawned the horror that is bfv gunplay
Like i've said
BF1 was the start of DICE making really bad decisions
and I don't like how nobody else thinks that.
like they think it started with BFV, no, it started in BF1.
Because 1 is still a very good game, and like you said BF1 isnt the first time they had the visual recoil, the live team had to patch it out
BFV is when it noticably goes down the tubes, and most of V plays nothing like BF1
BFV improved movement from BF1. But BFV also fucked up the gunplay severely.
V i feel like has the most risk-free movement of any bf game, I dislike it.
I like the features, but not the pacing. Its too quick to scale stuff and theres not enough of a reason to not crouch run. Though part of this is also probably the map design, since it feels like much less of a problem in the pacific.
And then 2042 they just straight up made the mouse input not function correctly
and then never fixed it.

straight up just pretended it wasn't an issue for years.
these crashes are ridiculous im getting like 2 a game at this pint!
The joy of playing BF2042
This game is truly cursed
Reinstall your windows runtime packages
What does the blue hitmarker mean when shooting explosives at vehicles?
Vehicle is armor, blue means armor dmg
Even if people are assault class have armor plate on
Think it's aps
the 4 thin symbols on top of the crosshair with no dmg numbers right
Why am i being one shotted by the AC9 or is it just bad netcode again
Blue hit markers means armor dmg. You can see the colors in settings
You can also turn off arm dmg hit markers
Yes that's aps/trophy system
that means my rocket got taken out and did no damage right
No that’s armor dmg
Yeah it intercepts grenades and rockets
It’s in settings smh 🤦♂️
alright ty
Bruh he's talking about shooting a rocket at a tank, not shooting body armor
Vehicles count as armor dmg to
You don't break vehicle armor lol
Armor piercing bullets do more dmg against vehicles
methinks stadium was a mistake, hourglass in general does not deserve to exist.
Rockets do armor dmg
if it was armor dmg, wouldn't it show the damage done to the armor too?
Armor dmgs is Vehicles, personal Armor plates.
It will still show dmg number still yes
I'm talking about the one where it doesn't show the dmg number
That’ll be aps then. Same graphic for both events
Ye
just 4-5 something symbols on the top of the crosshair
alright ty
I was confused, my bad 😞
With aps it’s worth mentioning that it has a cooldown timer too. Once it destroys something it’ll keep intercepting projectiles for a few seconds then let some past as it cools down to reactivate. Dont know the timings as it’s changed since it was made this way but there is a period where you can shoot past it
The Irish aps specifically that is, for vehicles it’s just on or off with a lengthy timer once it’s deactivated
yea Deco just on some copium or something
Yo
look for a 2v2 heli hmu !

I'm so mad at myself. I got back in 2042 after a month of COD and I'm so bad. My muscle memory is jacked. Both on controller and MnK. Ugh....
Oof. Be like me and can easily transition to games no matter what it is, smoothly
MnK wasn't as bad. But controller input is night and day between MWIII and 2042. But I'm getting back into the flow. A few really bad matches finally went 40-9 on a W. Hopefully I'll drop over 50 before the night is up.
O yea. It’s a lil weird for controller transition
The aim assist is crazy different tbh. Even if it’s identical value as well, cuz aim assist is op asf in modern games for some reason
But bf balance it out well
Yeah Aim assist is alot stronger on MWIII. But SBMM turns it down on the fly. I didn't believe it when I heard a cod player crying about it. But it's true. SBMM is something over there.
But BF2042 controller input is so much smoother than MWIII.
One of the biggest reasons I even stick with Battlefield is because its gunplay is better than anyone else's
Even when it's bad it's still superior to anything COD could throw out
CoD is trash nowadays
Generic trash
E
oh the skins are a problem in battlefield too dw
but cod is next level you got bloody rhea ripley and starlight from the boys running around..... it is just a clown show.
The most we have to worry about in 2042 is stupid skull masks
Wait until they release santa boris this year 
Your twitchiness is genuinely nauseating to watch
Why the diss
Cause he's noob
...bruh, it's literally not that bad.
What twitchiness
Gunplay is not good in 2042
im so confused, I have been spawning on insertion beacons this week, but I went to equip it and I cannot see any specialists who have it?
Yeah but it’s still better than the alternative
All recons carry beacons
It’s not even better than cod vanguard
And that’s most hated cod
Letting the cod shill back in the server is a funny decision

I am telling you the truth
what is the best solo conquest vs bots map for tank kills/destroying vehicles? I was thinking flashpoint but I'm not sure
I see lots of useless attention to detail in 2042 but instead of that they should have improved gunplay
When you making an fps game your first priority must be how shooting the guns feel
I hope battlefield 6 focuses on gunplay, maps and content
🙏
Don’t think much needs to change with the gunplay
It just doesn’t feel and sound good
At least the sight picture is clear
If they go for full cod style recoil we won’t be able to see anything
Except when the iron sight of the gun literally blocks your vision
Iron sight never blocked anything until the iron sight is of some weird gun
Like sure they can make animation improvements all they want, I’m not going to say no to better animations, just as long as they don’t hinder visual clarity
Animation and add some recoil that have a pattern which players needs to learn to control
I’d be down for patterns, but I know people will end up complaining about lasers
Got enough of that following the spread reduction mid 2042 as it is
People complain about specialists also
I do not see any issue
People complain about freedom of choosing any weapon
I like that change
I can understand the reason to dislike it but I do also prefer the open option
We definitely need gadget restrictions, but free weapon slots just adds to the fun without sacrificing much of that team structure
People complain about maps being bad I agree on this issue
But here people praise 1 map so what can I even say
After all it is true that lots of people will just pick a class for its weapon
Yeah gadget restrictions is needed otherwise everyone one do everything so no variety will be there which isn’t good
Can someone tell me if my current load out is good
Gun: DFR Strife
Attachments
Sight: fusion Holo and pso 5x
Barrel: type 4 heavy suppressor
Magazine: subsonic beltfed
Underbarrel: Bipod
Is this load out good or should I change some things.
Also what pistol is good?
I'm using the bfp 50 rn
Use whatever you feel comfortable with
Ok
2 good teams on BT Spearhead makes this hands down the best ever fps made
Can somone tell me ho to unlock DFR Strife? As this LMG does not appears in my collection as locked or ulocked weapon 😢
Is anybody else having issues with the game freezing and crashing?
Just happened a second time.
Game is literally unplayable at the moment.
Should be a challenge or something as the requirement when you look at the collections tab
Yes, I came here to ask the same.
Just had a crash to desktop and have been experiencing micro freezes several times since Tuesday (several crashes).
Using the latest nvidia driver version could be the problem if you have it insalled 
I have AMD GPU and using a driver that is a few months old
fyi very old radeon drivers have 2042 stutter issues, so this may be why
Normally I would agree, but it worked fine before the Tuesday update this week, and my drivers aren´t that old (from June iirc)
this has been an issue with radeon drivers for months, theres little you can do, but try the very latest version
the june/july drivers do have this issue
Ok, that is for older RX cards and I have XTX card.
But you are right there is little else I can do other than update, saw on Reddit that other have experienced similar issue since Tuesday.
@honest wave What is your pc spec and driver status ?
Installed latest drivers now, crossing fingers 🙂
user name checks out 😛
Another day, another game freeze
both me and my friend got it at the exact same time
for me the crash is the game image freezing up
audio still works
Report on forums. Reporting here achieves nothing.
idk I reported bugs on forums too and it god nothing done too
I'm mostly looking for validation, finding of others have the same issue
All depends on how you plan to use it, i run
Scopes:
ghost hybrid scope
2.5x thermal
Barrels:
regular barrel for longer ranges
wrapped suppressor for mid ranges
heavy suppressor for close ranges
Magazine:
subsonic
standard extended
Underbarrel:
MGL laser
bipod
Also BF servers are half dead
Do suppressors even matter in this game? Seems like people will find you instantly anyway, the moment you shoot with or without one
depends on the weapon
they dont do as they say, fully, subsonic ammo + heavy suppressor is a lethal combination but the others not so much
#battlefield-2042 message for the full list
ah ty I will check it out
np
what is this "halo effect" you're referring to at those distances? I don't think I've noticed it
there is a red very light outline when hovering over an enemy
Ah got it, so when you mention "light + subsonic = 20m range", does that mean a light barrel or something? and 20m range is how far they can detect me with that halo effect or something?
I haven't used subsonic in a long time so I'm just unaware of these mechanics
the halo effect is separate to that
20m is referring to the minimap distance range that you can be detected from
light = light barrel
hi guys need a little help, i got that bug that when i join the game i got my aim stuck down on the ground, already restarted the game and the pc, but it doesnt fix it
do you have a controller plugged in at the same time as kbm?
nope only kbm
Exactly right Pal
make sure there isnt any other form of input, e.g. racing gear or others, the game fries and isnt able to work with simultaneous inputs correctly
No report submitted
i have a wheel connected but its turned off so it shouldn recognize it
if its plugged in then it will still be detected via the interface
ok i unplugged the wheel
i'll try to start a game
solved, it was my pedal set for the sim
happens enjoy
The crashes is definitely related to vehicles. I saw 2 empty tanks at a pretty weird spot. And as soon as I entered I crashed. Surely those that left the two tanks earlier crashed as well lol
So was this fixed with 24.8.1 or not? Targeted, but was it included?
good question, unsure specifically, it was removed from the patch notes and never mentioned again but it is the third time its been an issue with radeons drivers, youll need to test it yourself as i dont use RDNA anymore
Does subsonic ammo hide the hit direction from enemies
