[mental delta]

The fuck ?

[pine roost]

oh this guy again. Always a bundle of laughs

[mental delta]

Who is he ?

[pine roost]

Honestly I can't figure it out

Comes in here like some kind of preaching vicar going on and on about how keyboard's shouldn't be used in games or something

bro's a little confused

[tame crow]

nah not really m8

[worthy inlet]

Oh good got ghost pinged

[mossy wolf]

hey maybe a dumb question but like most of the time i still have a hard time spotting enemies and like they appear to come out of nowhere or they are really dark soo i cannot see like if there is a dark background such as a open window i don't spot them can anyone help me with this with some tips or like method to spot them? send me your info in DM pls ❤️

[fickle wharf]

Who keeps pinging me!?!?!?

[lone void]

Shotgun not me

Haven't been by in a while, how are we

[pearl ridge]

Jesus fucking Christ fix the houses on Valparaiso already

The geometry has been broken from launch

[mossy wolf]

valparaiso didn't have a good geometry back in bfbc2

nothing new i guess

[lethal moon]

nope never

in fact its the smoothest most polished battlefield game out there

however, I prefer battlefield 4 then 2042

[pearl ridge]

The people I have to deal with here

You have an anti-tank missile. Over there is a tank. FIGURE IT OUT.

I’m marking the bitch and everything

Fucking blind mental defectives the lot of them

So many people play this game and just don’t engage with any of the mechanics at all

[mossy wolf]

Yeah it stopped now

[void gorge]

I read and reread your answer in the translator and I didn't understand So if you can let's say... simplify the answer, I'd appreciate it

[acoustic seal]

battlefield 1 and its consequences...

[pearl ridge]

Yeah because they were soooo smart in 4

I literally never saw someone use the soflam in 4

[naive ember]

Your translator is broken bud

[lethal moon]

ur not wrong xd

[naive ember]

He's wrong

[hard jay]

Hello noobs

[reef cedar]

hello blueberries

[mossy wolf]

hello dragons

[acoustic seal]

yeah because lockons were always noob traps

[mossy wolf]

doing a education session on bf 2042

if anyone wanna join in to talk about it would be cool

[acoustic seal]

what is there even to talk about with this game?

the mechanics are gone, you just hold down mouse1 and beam people at 150 meters

[fossil frost]

Good evening fellas

im new to the server

[pine roost]

Analog movement might have more directionality but that is never beneficial in battlefield. Besides, keyboard has the benefit of quicker directional changes due to the nature of digital input.

Also you can just you know… crouch? If you want to be slow

[mossy wolf]

how do you mean

[mossy wolf]

yeah but no need to sprint entire time

like personally i just balance out like i mostly sprint in safe conditions but when i need strategic vantage points then i just crouchj

[pine roost]

That’s why you crouch you spanner

[mossy wolf]

yeah but hey that is battlefield i mean it is a tactical game it is not like chicken without head force running down call of duty

[spare quest]

https://tenor.com/view/wawa-emdeb-fail-failure-cat-gif-16703817715131368982

[pine roost]

That goodness. That aim was hard to watch

[mossy wolf]

nah i preffer my laptop

with my i9, 4080 and 64gb

with keyboard and mouse

like it is known that pc players mostly have advantage cuz of specs and movebitlity

mobility

[pine roost]

[mossy wolf]

intruiging statement, please educate me more

[pine roost]

There is a genuine discussion to be had about analog vs digital movement inputs but you are getting surprisingly obsessive over it

Now even I’m confused

What tangent is this now

[mossy wolf]

yeah same

whut

we were first talking about diff between controller vs keyboard mouse setup

[pine roost]

I get you. Maybe the real achievements were the friends we made along the way…

[mossy wolf]

yeah that makes sense @pine roost

why lol i mean i like my mouse and keyboard setup

okay buddy

[eager spire]

i'm sure you are buddy

i wouldn't want to ride your bicycle anyway, weirdo.

[mossy wolf]

not mad or irritated at all mate, just find your view on the matter interesting

compared to the known fact that the majority of the gaming community always said that pc has a better advantage in games

[eager spire]

i don't have a car.

i am very skeptical.

[mossy wolf]

respectfully i'm gonna continue my youtube guide analysations

[eager spire]

i just told you i don't have a car.

[mossy wolf]

ping me if anything important comes up

[eager spire]

that is not an exclusive thing to americans

[chilly jacinth]

Whoever decided to unban melroy

Why did you do that

[pine roost]

I can see why this guy got banned last time

[eager spire]

EA unbanned everyone that was previously banned when they took over the server.

[chilly jacinth]

Terrible decision

[mossy wolf]

understandable cuz they like the inclusivity of the community\

and want to branch out to new players

[wise heath]

EA please remove AEK

I’m tired of it

[mossy wolf]

soo they make it as inclusive as possible

[eager spire]

i mean i can't be mad because i was banned for some reason, but yeah, this guy is ridiculous.

[vocal tusk]

Jesus can someone ban this dude already, this is pretty ridiculous

[mossy wolf]

melroy respectfully don't go into it

[eager spire]

mods are historically not very active unless reports are made.

[chilly jacinth]

Can't really report though

[eager spire]

You technically can through #how-to-report-and-appeal

[chilly jacinth]

opened a ticket

wonder if it works

[mossy wolf]

hey btw anyone know how i can connect my stats with bf bot?

still new to the server and enjoying it

[pine roost]

I thought it just read from the battlefield tracker site

[spare quest]

[mossy wolf]

@pine roost could you help me set up in dm?

if you know more

[pine roost]

I have no clue

[mossy wolf]

okay nvm buddy

[chilly jacinth]

He's now threatening me in DMs

very epic

[pine roost]

lmao what about

you said like one thing

[chilly jacinth]

He's a special guy

[pine roost]

fun to be around with to start but got far too aggressive

oh there we go, just sent me one

[eager spire]

yup

he's doing the same thing to me

at this point i am ignoring him

[spare quest]

[mossy wolf]

yeah same he also sended me a message in pv

pb

[spare quest]

most sane discord user

[chilly jacinth]

I reported his messages to discord so hopefully they remove him off of discord

[spare quest]

discord support is the worst, they won't do anything

[chilly jacinth]

Surely they will do something against threats and racism

[spare quest]

no

[pine roost]

reported too

crossed the line

just sending him incoherant gifs now

anyways

uh, battlefield yay!

[chilly jacinth]

[naive ember]

[acoustic seal]

@gray viper how do analog keyboards fit into your time cube narrative?

[pine roost]

he got banned, no point

[acoustic seal]

fuck

[pine roost]

I think you'd be better off given the stuff he's been sending me

[acoustic seal]

i love poking those people though

[chilly jacinth]

Says he's still part of the server for me

[naive ember]

Probably a different melroy

[mossy wolf]

ahw shit i didn't get my popcorn in time

wait too soon?

Kappa

[next onyx]

Do you not see it's some jackass being a troll?

I've dealt with their ass in the past and banned them and this is definitely their alt.

[quaint vector]

Got the new PC running. 👀 👌

This was the first thing that popped up

[eager spire]

i don't think it's an alt, i think it's just his main that got unbanned

[next onyx]

I know its not his main.

I can speak on certainty with that.

[next onyx]

You literally have a cpu built for this game.

More games are gpu intensive than cpu in general yeah?

[dry lava]

can any1 tell me where all my stuff went i had some weapons but i recently redownloaded and i dont see it anymore

[open fractal]

anybody up for a game?

[dapper river]

welcome back, no-pants

[mossy wolf]

idunno bro

[naive ember]

I have it

[abstract mountain]

I've literally had people be invisible and only pop into view after they've started shooting at me, so it honestly might not even be a you problem sometimes

unless there's an operator with that ability, cause I genuinely have no clue

[acoustic seal]

real crazy or fake crazy, it's still more entertainment than you're gonna get out of 2042

[naive ember]

Was definitely real and 128p on manifest is great

[arctic grove]

GIB NEW BF

[stone cradle]

smh no welcome back rewards

[wise heath]

I’m sorry, idk, mess with settings, never had that problem with 2042, but in bfv genuinely hard to tell enemies at times

[robust ether]

In BFV it can be hard but also I think they were trying to make it hard on purpose

For realism

Or whatever

But obviously tweaked it up with the change that added a backlight to soldiers after complaints

[wise heath]

That’s fair

[mossy wolf]

yeah i imagine like ww2 was shitty and like ofc realism should be like hard conditions but yeah lol

[wise heath]

Got killed a few times in a row by a squad hiding in bushes, honestly enjoyed it because the advantage was fair

[robust ether]

I personally don't have much of a problem with in BFV. After a while of playing your eyes get trained to look for cerain things

[mossy wolf]

yeah i notice like after playing the whole night with the guys on discord here my view and spotting improved

i think it is more like experience and like map knowledge

[wise heath]

probably

[vital quail]

With 3d spotting it's almost impossible to not find enemies tbh

[wise heath]

haven’t played bfv since 2021

even then had like 15 hours

idk much about the game

[vital quail]

Even the slightest idea there might be an enemy, just press the spot button

[abstract mountain]

yo do thermals not work through smoke?? Am I going crazy? Threw down a smoke nade to push a point with like 7 people on it with a thermal sight and couldn't see any of them all of a sudden. Does that not defeat the entire point of having a thermal sight?

[wise heath]

yeah can’t

[abstract mountain]

how tf does that make sense???

[wise heath]

doesn’t but prefer like that

[abstract mountain]

are the devs stupid or something?

[wise heath]

thermal sights are cheap

[abstract mountain]

in a game where someone can sit in a tank all match? that's kind of a crazy take tbh

[wise heath]

it’s bf2042

a tank can barely kill a bug

[naive ember]

Bugs are extinct

[wise heath]

no

Wasn’t there in game lore tip about locusts eating food supply?

[acoustic seal]

it's to prevent people from making instant one-way angles, which would be way worse for the game than thermals not working through smoke

[abstract mountain]

bro it's battlefield, play around it, they make a one way sight punch a hole through the wall and make another one. Trying to treat this like it's a CoD game is why it's a shit battlefield

[wise heath]

smokes are the way to play around it

[abstract mountain]

the entire fun of being able to hotswap attachments is to be able to play tactically and adjust to situations like that. That kind of balancing literally counteracts the unique mechanics of the game

[wise heath]

I rarely hotswap

[abstract mountain]

and I mean that's fine

[wise heath]

unless I’m flanking and well wrapped suppressor

Yeah I’m not a fan of thermals being able to see smokes, even tho doesn’t make sense

It ruins revives

[abstract mountain]

but I feel like having this mechanic that allows you to adapt on the fly to different situations by swapping out attachments and sights, just to not even have the thermal work through smoke is just a mind blowing decision

I think having the ability to drag bodies could have been a good solution to that rather than removing the entire function of the sight

like I understand the frustration behind it, cause I usually hate thermals in games too, but it's a completely different story when it comes to battlefield

[acoustic seal]

the "unique mechanic" in question is giving you every attachment at the same time so there's never any decision making involved in creating a loadout

just another way to dumb down the game

[wise heath]

Oh yeah

[abstract mountain]

if you want that play call of duty though?

[wise heath]

That would be awesomesauce

If that was a thing I wouldn’t mind thermals being able to see through smoke then

uhhh

iirc in bf3

[abstract mountain]

like I'm not really that upset that it's not a thing tbh but it's just some really dumb decision making considering it took me 3 whole seconds to think of a better solution

[wise heath]

enemies will be a bright white on the thermals, but only if they are spotted

[vital quail]

They changed it in bf4 because of how unbalanced it was

[acoustic seal]

show me the maps where you can "punch a hole through the wall" at commonly smoked choke points

[fervent rose]

it's future smoke that has anti thermal technology.

also it's that way because it's fucking stupid to have people freely shooting enemies through smoke because it's a videogame and that shit isnt fun

[abstract mountain]

I mean if they had actually added destruction into this game anyway, my point being that the game is shit and it makes no sense for thermal to function this way

[vital quail]

I mean game balance is a pretty good reason

[abstract mountain]

people literally sit in vehicles and camp out, not to mention the entire purpose of battlefield is that it's a battlefield, and you're supposed to be able to think and act tactically to gain an advantage. Thermals are the last thing that would throw the balance off in this game if the devs weren't completely incompetent

[fervent rose]

there was a month where paik could easily see everyone in smoke. it was such an awful month to play battlefield if you werent the paik abuser

[acoustic seal]

if thermals could see through smokes, then it would be mandatory for everyone to put on thermals in case of one-way smokes

and at that point why even have smoke in the game

[vital quail]

People that suck already use thermals almost exclusively. I rarely pick up guns but when I do it usually has a thermal sight

[abstract mountain]

that's literally the entire point of a thermal sight why even have them in the game to begin with??

[wise heath]

Sundance jeep stuff

[karmic egret]

Highway to the DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR ZOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

[wise heath]

If this was bf4 I would agree because vehicles are bullshit in that game but it’s bf2042

Vehicles can’t kill a beetle bug no more

[acoustic seal]

yeah i don't think they should've added thermals at all, but that ship sailed like two years ago and we have to salvage the gameplay somehow

[fervent rose]

thermals in 2042 are mostly fine. the long range one is cringe though

[abstract mountain]

like when I'm having to fight 7+ people in a building, being able to actually give myself an advantage and get the jump on them would be the exact kind of situation that makes battlefield better. I mean I can't do that so whatever, but again, my point being that the decision making to have them in, but not even function properly, because "balance" in a game where there's 128 people fighting across the entire map all the time is just dumb

[wise heath]

Thermals is a cod thing

[abstract mountain]

like of course using it to play like a bitch is lame, but that's battlefield, acting like there aren't way worse ways that people play is kinda wild

[wise heath]

Ruined cod ghost

[fervent rose]

they do function properly, people in hard to see areas are lit up

[abstract mountain]

thermals are a real thing used in real battlefields, it makes more sense for battlefield to have them than it does for CoD

[fervent rose]

again, THE LORE says thermals cant see through 2042 smoke and we all know the lore cannot be questioned

it is the best writing

[acoustic seal]

realism makes for really, really shitty gameplay

[abstract mountain]

that is

literally

the entire point of battlefield

[wise heath]

having a real thing from the world isn’t advocating realism

[acoustic seal]

it's why nobody plays hell let loose or isonzo or whatever the fuck other milsim games are out

[fervent rose]

thermals are op as fuck in real life

[wise heath]

You just sound like EODBot at that point

[abstract mountain]

wanting battlefield to be more like cod is why it's sucked for the last 3 games

[fervent rose]

where did you get the idea that battlefield is about realism

and when will you realize bf has been codlike since bf3

[wise heath]

CQC maps will be ruined if thermals can see through smoke

[vital quail]

Any map would be ruined

I would sit on buildings in bf4 with the dbv with thermals and frag rounds as support

[abstract mountain]

this thought process actually baffles me tbh I'm starting to see why so many games suck now when this is how people think

[fervent rose]

brotha we want a GAME

not a simulator

go play Squad or join the military

[wise heath]

This is why I hate bf4 the most

[acoustic seal]

you tend to come to the same opinions once you pierce the veil and realize battlefield is an arcade shooter like every other arcade shooter

[eager spire]

Battlefield has been MW19 Ground War since Battlefield 3.

They were doing that first.

[fervent rose]

uh, i wouldnt go that far

[eager spire]

It's genuine delusion to act like it isn't.

[fervent rose]

ground war is fucking dogshit

[eager spire]

LARGE MAPS WITH VEHICLES

AND A LOT OF PLAYERS

[fervent rose]

yes but horribly designed maps and horrible vehicles isnt the same thing

[wise heath]

adding one piece of equipment doesn’t = realism

[eager spire]

THE QUALITY OF THE DESIGN IS IRRELEVANT

[fervent rose]

no, it's not

[eager spire]

WHAT MATTERS IS THAT THEY'RE THERE.

[fervent rose]

one thing is good and one thing is dogshit

[eager spire]

THINGS CAN BE DOGSHIT AND STILL BE THE SAME, DOGSHIT FOOD IS STILL FOOD.

[abstract mountain]

I don't want a simulator I want to be able to adapt and do something other than brainlessly point and click. Having a hectic battlefield that requires switching playstyles to push certain points, and being able to tactically use smoke to give an advantage when you're outnumbered is why battlefield has appeal compared to CoD despite the gameplay itself being functionally worse

[fervent rose]

you're on a wild bender to equate bf3 and ground war

[wise heath]

adding swords to bfv because Japs used them irl = realism

[eager spire]

I am not.

[wise heath]

= game ruined

[eager spire]

Open your eyes.

[abstract mountain]

also yeah ground war is dogshit

[fervent rose]

you are

[abstract mountain]

I mean I wouldn't mind swords tbh swords are cool

[fervent rose]

anyone that suggests ground war is anything close to battlefield is crazy

[wise heath]

EODBot is just a massive contrarian, let them be

[fervent rose]

massive lunacy

[acoustic seal]

i mean we can pretend that he wasn't arguing for thermals-through-smokes from the position of realism but that would be dishonest

[eager spire]

The quality of the games is not relevant. It does not matter. What matters is that Battlefield 3 is large maps with vehicles and a lot of players. MW19 Ground War is the same thing. Large maps with vehicles and a lot of players.

[wise heath]

Hell Let Loose also has large map and vehicles

[eager spire]

DICE have been doing that format before CoD did it.

[wise heath]

wow same game

[abstract mountain]

my point was that battlefield is more realistic than cod not that it is/should be realistic. Intentionally misinterpreting my point is just ignorant

[eager spire]

Battlefield is generally not realistic in terms of gameplay. Look at BF4 infantry gameplay and tell me that's realistic.

[fervent rose]

the only thing bf ever did well in terms of realism was physics on vehicles. things moved like they should

[abstract mountain]

there's other ways to balance out smokes and thermals than having the thermal outright not do the thing it's designed to do

[eager spire]

Battlefield merely holds higher appearances of realism, but it is still an arcade shooter.

[fervent rose]

but man just look at bf2 soldier movement and tell me it was made to be a realistic shooter

[wise heath]

Yeah

[acoustic seal]

lol let's hear it then

[fervent rose]

the franchise has always been arcade

[abstract mountain]

being able to drag bodies, having specific smoke that does block the sight, emps, equipment that disables nearby enemy equipment

half of which is already in the game

[wise heath]

why have two different versions of smokes

[fervent rose]

actually playing bf2 would do a number on some of these modern bf fan's minds

battlefield is not squad

[abstract mountain]

nitpicking a single example out of like seven like that disproves my point is wild

[wise heath]

btw thermal’s main use in war is to not see people through smoke grenades, but people hiding with camo and shrubbery

[wise heath]

give me time

[abstract mountain]

valid

[acoustic seal]

body drag doesn't address the issue, two smokes is silly, EMP vs thermals would require carrying both smoke and EMP to work, and doesn't blasco already do something like that but within an almost nothing range?

[abstract mountain]

thermal as a function detects body heat, which would be able to funtion through smoke

[eager spire]

Dragging bodies
I know that was planned to be a feature in BFV, but that got scrapped. I don't believe it it's in 2042 either, if it is, i've never seen anyone use it.

Specific smoke that blocks the sights
Having two different smokes is redundant because everyone will literally only use the smoke that works against thermals because why would you not

EMP's
Would be a nightmare to balance with vehicles in the game, it would basically make vehicles a nightmare to play.

Equipment that disables nearby enemy equipment
are we considering sights as equipment now? would it disable red dots as well? what purpose would this have otherwise?

[vital quail]

But what if the smoke grenades in game are already the specific smokes you are talking about

[fervent rose]

which they are

[wise heath]

Dragging bodies is in bf2042

[fervent rose]

huh?

[wise heath]

But it was in some unique event

[abstract mountain]

why would it require carrying smoke? Also the character being shit doesn't have anything to do with my ideas of balancing the game better. The other points are valid though

[fervent rose]

isnt that just soldier crawling

[wise heath]

That was crawling?

[fervent rose]

its the same shit they coded for hazard zone i think

[eager spire]

AHEM.

[wise heath]

Idk that shit didn’t work at all, I would constantly get stuck in the floor

[fervent rose]

when downed, you can crawl

[wise heath]

Ah

[eager spire]

hello.

[wise heath]

Then I’m wrong, sorry

[acoustic seal]

wide range placeable EMP would be even worse than the problem you're trying to solve

[fervent rose]

yes, lets play an electronic warfare minigame just to make sure enemy cant see through smoke

[wise heath]

@abstract mountain hey man don’t own EODBot too hard otherwise blocked

[fervent rose]

im so excited thinking about that fun

[eager spire]

crazy, i respond to every aspect of his point and then he's got nothing to say.

[fervent rose]

it's just an odd hill to die on, as if removing the thermal-smoke interaction is going to ruin the franchise

it's actually not fun in practice

the bf games that don't have that crap are way more fun

[vital quail]

It's extremely unbalanced

[eager spire]

Like, are you really that upset that you can't sit behind a smoke with a thermal and shoot people that can't see you?

[fervent rose]

and by the way, you can do that rat stuff in 2042. Just play Rao

it's just not a thermal sight mechanic

[eager spire]

yeah, and it's dogshit. demonstrates why it shouldn't be a thing.

[fervent rose]

for sure, every video of it is moronic

[vital quail]

https://www.reddit.com/r/battlefield_4/s/Tv3qPjedER

[fervent rose]

no idea if its an oversight or if dice actually thinks that stuff should be in the game

[vital quail]

The reaction for when it got implemented in bf4

[fervent rose]

50/50

[eager spire]

I wouldn't put it past modern DICE.

[fervent rose]

they also dont play their games enough to even know about it potentially

[eager spire]

DICE seem to be adverse to good ideas that previous games had

They removed visual recoil in BF4, only to bring it back in BF1.

...You still around, buddy? @abstract mountain

Guess not.

[fervent rose]

i wonder what they removed but will bring back for next battlefield

cant wait for health attrition 2.0

[wise heath]

Health attrition?

[eager spire]

I can probably guess they won't bring back anything that people actually liked.

[wise heath]

Like not being able to fully regenerate in bfv?

[fervent rose]

you know that thing in bfv where you dont heal

[wise heath]

Ah

[fervent rose]

this time we will have to pack bullet wounds and use tourniquets like tarkov

[wise heath]

I hate what they did to the ammo boxes and medkits

[void gorge]

Can anyone answer me please, that tank known as "tor" when you fire a shot at an enemy tank, even if the enemy tank has its defense activated, the tor's bullet will still hit with brutal force, but in real life it is the same thing?

[vital quail]

Oh great

1500 hours btw

[fervent rose]

the railgun tank? those dont exist yet

[wise heath]

I think I had like 200 hours on bf3 before I realized smoke mortars where a thing

were

[abstract mountain]

I was in a game, I'll read that in a minute

[eager spire]

skeptical but okay

[abstract mountain]

is there a reason for the attitude to that statement or are you just that miserable of a person?

[eager spire]

the reason is cause i don't like your opinions.

[wise heath]

EODBot tries to be all passive aggressive and paranoid when you don’t answer their snarky remark in .02 seconds, but own them, you get blocked

massive hypocrite

[abstract mountain]

so you're just immature and incapable of having a debate without person feelings? Sorry that's not my problem

[eager spire]

without person feelings

surprisingly you are dealing with a human person so yes you are gonna get the feelings, that's how i am.

i know

it's a shock to you.

[abstract mountain]

so yes you're immature. Just because you have feelings doesn't mean they need to control everything you say or do

[eager spire]

i should just run everything i say through an LLM and post it like that so there's not any of those feelings.

but i don't care to so.

[wise heath]

this is why your block list is longer than your friends list

[abstract mountain]

I don't like some of these opinions either but I'm not acting like a little bitch over them (most of the time, anyway), I've been genuinely debating and accepting responses that I feel prove mine wrong. If you can't control your actions because your mind is too weak to process anything other than your emotions maybe just don't speak at all?

[eager spire]

i'm still waiting for you to read the response by the way.

[abstract mountain]

I had to respond to your immature statements first, I'll get to that. Believe it or not you aren't the most important thing going on in anyone's day

[abstract mountain]

that's valid I was thinking more of a weaker emp that doesn't disable anything too massive, more like personal gadgets and special sights, etc.

[eager spire]

I mean, I don't really accept friend requests on here, haven't done so in years.

[wise heath]

you don’t get any

[acoustic seal]

i keep dms open but rarely get schizo messages anymore

[eager spire]

I don't get any, there's not much point to adding someone if you share servers with people.

[abstract mountain]

also no I did state that I'm not upset about it and that I felt like it didn't make sense. Just something I thought was missing that could bring some cool moments to the game. I rarely run my thermal, except for when people are sitting in bushes and I can't see them clearly enough because my eyesight isn't that good

[eager spire]

eh, i don't consider dying through smoke to someone i couldn't see to be a cool moment that should be in any game.

[wise heath]

yeah the two x1.25 sights are pretty meh, wish there was a coyote rds

[wise heath]

same

[abstract mountain]

it's almost like I'm playing the video game with my friends and have better things to do than immediately respond to someone's messages who's only form of personal validation is having petty arguments on discord

[eager spire]

I mean I did read you saying to someone else that nitpicking a single example is wild

not long before i responded to all of them.

i assumed you would've seen it.

[abstract mountain]

in a 1v1 situation no that would be pretty lame, however I did state in the question that started the topic that the situation that brought it to my mind was that I was attempting to push an objective with about 7 or 8 people in it by myself because my team wasn't helping, only for that to be how I find out my thermal sight can't do one of the major functions that it's usually used in games to do.

[eager spire]

I'm of the opinion that vision should work both ways. If i can't see someone else, they shouldn't be able to see me. Exceptions for radar of course.

[abstract mountain]

not a single one of those was anything different from what someone else had already said prior, and that I had already responded to, or it just wasn't something I necessarily had a response to. Again, I have a life and other things to do than respond to every single statement you make. Sometimes I might just miss them. Get a life, move on, not everything is about you

[eager spire]

never claimed everything was. just assumed you were around to discuss your viewpoints.

[abstract mountain]

And I am, after I finished the games I was playing with my friends. All it required from your end was some patience, rather than some snarky attention seeking messages multiple times over the same topic

[eager spire]

literally only two but okay.

[abstract mountain]

now that I've responded to those points I'm done with this conversation as it's not constructive for either of us clearly, so I'm not gonna be responding to anything else, if that's okay with you princess

[eager spire]

tbf most discussions of balance in games are not particularly productive. devs don't usually read discussion like this.

[void gorge]

It's because these fps like bf are a simulation of real war so I imagined that this technology existed but also in my opinion this tank tor is horrible in terms of physics because it takes a long time to make turns, for example

[eager spire]

no they're not, but okay

[abstract mountain]

they are to an extent, obviously not to a huge extent, mostly in the stuff used in them, but keep in mind this game is called battlefield 2042 because it's set in 2042, so the tech in game is a lot less realistic and not necessarily based on real vehicles we currently have, as they'd be a bit outdated in game

[eager spire]

nah, cause proper war simulation wouldn't be fun at all, and even most milsim games are not that fun unless you're really into roleplaying.

[wise heath]

we need a game based on Ghana advanced weaponry

[fervent rose]

well i should have said they technically exist but they're fucking giant like it'd have to be on a big navy ship

whatever the TOR has is not real

[vital quail]

I guess there's some dude spawning in the teams transport and sitting in spawn

Rip

[little wind]

Why can I not send clips in clips bro

[patent pivot]

gotta boost the server to send stuff

[tawny carbon]

Not anymore

Paying for perm access is not a thing. Since EA took over

[patent pivot]

then what? the stupid average message count per month or something?

[tawny carbon]

Huh?

[patent pivot]

something about sending messages on this channel for minimum amount of time

[alpine timber]

how do i fix this DirectX Error

DirectX function "res" failed with E_UNEXPECTED ("Unexpected failure."). GPU: "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 3GB, Driver: 56590

[tawny carbon]

Only regular/Legacy/Staff have perms

[tawny carbon]

3gb vram

[patent pivot]

poor fool

owning 3gb instead of 6

[tawny carbon]

You might need a new gpu to play 2042. It’s demanding game.

[pliant bluff]

Hello 👋

[pliant bluff]

I bought it on extreme discount for Xbox series x/s (I have a series s) is the console version fine?

[tame crow]

more cpu demanding than gpu. but yea bluds gpu isnt going to cut it lol.

[pliant bluff]

I just wanna hop on and snipe ngl

[placid tapir]

I've uninstalled reWASD but now my game is saying that its detecting reWASD. I've checked my task manager and nothing indicates that reWASD is running. please help if anyone knows anything

[remote kiln]

repair the game files

[placid tapir]

i will try that now

[little wind]

Already sent it lol #screenshots-and-clips message

[pearl ridge]

The console version runs fantastically.

[pliant bluff]

That's great to hear

[pearl ridge]

At least on my series X. I’m not sure how the S will hold up

But it has to work

[pliant bluff]

The s will probably be fine

[pliant bluff]

You know that thing where your sight is blurry? And like if you're using iron sights the front ironsight will be clear and the rear blurry? How do I turn that off again?

It's a thing in every battlefield and everybody turns it off, I just don't remember what it's called

I wanna say it's called like depth of field or something

[pearl ridge]

Yeah it’s the depth of field

[pliant bluff]

Is it an option in bf2042 yet?

[vital quail]

I'm surprised there has been pretty much no talk about the chat filter being changed in-game

[pearl ridge]

What did they do this time

[fickle wharf]

???

[vital quail]

Some things that previously didn't go through do now

[fickle wharf]

Huh

[vital quail]

And its #### instead of **** for things that dont

[naive ember]

EA did a great job bringing back all of the banned and taking away our perm

Can't help but notice that this server's been dead ever since they took over

Imagine now wanting to win.

Making someone go 19-40 was good enough for a win tbf

[upper vessel]

How tf do i play with the su?

It’s complicated a bit

[eager spire]

really annoying that the only way you can make weapon bans is to run plugins through an elaborate process, and now that's being broken so you can't even do that

[slow lintel]

is there anyone wishing to play bf2042

[mellow rose]

Me

[slow lintel]

hey man hop on to any channel im coming

[spare quest]

I love watching heli mains struggle

[pliant bluff]

I couldn't find it when I looked 😞

[tawny carbon]

People will say that your cheating

[spare quest]

nah they only get angry in chat

[tawny carbon]

Other people will say. It’s Impossible to take down Helis. Even tho there is 10+ ways to kill any vehicle in the game

[spare quest]

It's always worth it

ppl are just lazy

[tawny carbon]

Very

[royal trail]

we really need a compound bow in bf2042

imagine shooting down a heli with a bow

epic leading

[spare quest]

best they could do is downgraded xbow

[topaz breach]

[pliant bluff]

I sure do love shooting them down with the minigun

[young yoke]

any good full xp air superiority servers?

[prisma heron]

If anyone wants to run casual conquest 128 I'm in squad three

mics not working

[mossy wolf]

im here

ah okay

will waiut

waiyt

wait

[prisma heron]

givr me a sec

[still vault]

I just want the whole mains concept to go away

[vital quail]

It's crazy how a majority of vehicle mains use an auto clicker on the vehicle menu

[chilly jacinth]

I mean if they don't get it they just quit anyways

[spare quest]

or if they die 1-2 times

[still vault]

If I want people to main things, I'll play a competitive hero shooter

[lavish patrol]

Got around to finally using the RM68

It slaps

[mossy wolf]

yeah im here grinding my lvl 18 ass to better weapons

[pliant bluff]

Yeah I've found the M5A3 to be good enough for my purposes as I grind for more weapons

[mossy wolf]

using the ak24 now and it works a bit better

deff good to watch is fire power and fire rate

[pliant bluff]

I just want as low recoil as possible

And the M5A3 with a grip has like literally no recoil

[mossy wolf]

then ak 4 sure

[pliant bluff]

Also I'm partial to the M5 because it's a Sig Sauer

[vital quail]

I don't know the unlock requirements specifically, but the ak5c and vhx are pretty good and should be able to be unlocked with no level restrictions

[lavish patrol]

Man... the AK5C was my go to back in BF4

And Medal of Honor Warfighter

[urban pollen]

Same

Now I use the ac9, dfr strife, and vhx

[ionic shuttle]

Battlefield 4 zavod 311 > Battlefield 2042 zavod 2042

[placid tapir]

i feel like the ac9 is very underrated

[acoustic seal]

oh the ac9 beams like crazy yeah

probably the only "fun" t1 i've gotten

so when's visual recoil getting reverted?

take it out of the fucking game

why do i have to guess where my actual point of aim is?

[zealous loom]

[pliant bluff]

I've been using the base smg you get somewhat recently

[urban pollen]

I think it’s pretty highly rated

It’s insanely good and I feel like I see YouTubers use it

[wise heath]

ac9 is most op smg

maybe pbx beats it cause default guns always have to be op in battlefield

[void gorge]

apparently the game is being promoted in stores or literally the game is free, but even on a Friday night, according to steamdb, the game doesn't have more than 4k players and I'm wondering what EA did with this game, which was supposed to be a work of art

[vocal tusk]

Dude, where do you get this shit info from?

[lavish patrol]

RM68 with short barrel is nuts...

[naive ember]

I love EA

[pliant bluff]

Is the pbx that good?

[acoustic seal]

bf players are the kings of just making shit up

i saw some guy saying there was gonna be a halloween battle pass like two weeks ago

[vocal tusk]

This guy in particular is king of shitposting

[acoustic seal]

i mean the part about it being dead is accurate but i don't think there have been discounts for a while

[vocal tusk]

Well yeah, its year 4 nearly

[glass imp]

There is going to be a Halloween event pass, as mentioned in this blog post: https://www.ea.com/games/battlefield/battlefield-2042/news/battlefield-2042-continues

[acoustic seal]

????????

i cant even fathom what the fuck this company is doing anymore

[mossy wolf]

me neither

[vital quail]

Wish it would be more clear on if it's going to have a pass to buy with coins or just like the rest of events

[mossy wolf]

they had a chance with bf3 to make an esports entrance and they fucked itr

[acoustic seal]

says at the bottom: *Free Event Pass content requires gameplay to unlock. Premium content requires Premium Event Pass (sold separately) and gameplay to unlock.

[naive ember]

Nobody cares about esports

[vital quail]

Yeah I'm a lil dumb sometimes

Before I opened discord 2 minutes ago I was about to spend the 1500 I have

[fervent rose]

they really didnt. the game ran on 15hz netcode.

[acoustic seal]

i need to expand on this i feel like

season 4 was a dump of leftover content so everyone thought the game was done after season 4, right? no...

[fervent rose]

surely its just more cosmetics and another bad mode right

[acoustic seal]

ok so they're gonna go an extra 4 seasons so they can say they had 2 years of support, right? no, they quit at s7

[fervent rose]

thats like "free" money

[acoustic seal]

alright so now that they say they're cancelling support they're going to actually cancel support and work on the next game, right? apparently fucking not

[fervent rose]

but when did they say they were officially canceling support? they just said no more seasons aka additional content

[tropic berry]

They've not mentioned that they're completely ending support IIRC

[fervent rose]

yeah, pretty sure that never happened. it's just on skeleton crew status

[pliant bluff]

I bought it recently for 6.99, digitally they're running discounts but idk about in-store

[fervent rose]

they can "support" a game for a long time with less than 5 people. read about diablo 3 if you dont believe me

[pliant bluff]

On Xbox bf2042 seems to be alive in my region

[vital quail]

It's pretty much constantly on sale on playstation

[tropic berry]

On its 33st season isnt it

[pliant bluff]

Though my region includes Texas so most games I play are always alive and well

Even bf1 is alive and well in my region

[vocal tusk]

Regardless of what they add, its not gonna be maps or weapons/vehicles that meaningfully change the game...so at least for me, support has ended.

Personally speaking, im waiting for the next game to play more than on Fridays.

[fervent rose]

for me, support ends when balance patches stop dropping

[tropic berry]

Sure, but that doesn't mean its actually ended and nobody is working on it anymore in any capacity though

[vocal tusk]

Yeah, but for any meaningful changes to how the game plays/feels, next to nothing is going to change...and thats fine. Its been 3 years

[fervent rose]

but yeah i'm very much bored of 2042. i'm excited for early access of delta force

[pliant bluff]

I'm fortunate enough to be located in central United States so finding players in games is never hard

I've never had to wait to play during prime time hours on games like some of my friends from other places have to

[naive ember]

Wym?

[tropic berry]

Valid

[naive ember]

Dude you play with all of north america

[pliant bluff]

Like 3 am I'm hopping on a game that's supposed to be dead and I'm in a match within minutes

[naive ember]

Oh

[fervent rose]

yeah the "dead game" stuff is moronic

it's very much got players, it's just not popping off like Apex

[pliant bluff]

This includes other games too

[fervent rose]

like, it's not xdefiant

which probably is dying off soon lol

[vocal tusk]

I still get games fast, I just chose not to most of the time. I have 1600+ hours, but the experiences I have are not all that different now...game to game.

I mainly play now on fridays for FNB modes to have fun with friends here 😄

[pliant bluff]

Like I hop on bf1 at 3:27 am on a Tuesday and I'm finding a match like no problem

Dude even on a game like Nickelodeon all star brawl

I hopped on and was in a match in 3 minutes

[tropic berry]

I haven't had any issues with low-playercounts myself.

Maybe only when its 4am

[void gorge]

Sometimes I think that the BF franchise, for example, should be bought by Rockstar because then at least the game would be well-made and I say this because GTA, for example, usually takes years to be released, but when it is released, 99% of the game is in perfect condition.

[pliant bluff]

Something about Xbox and the region I have it set to is just perfection in like 90 percent of games I play

It's nice

[tropic berry]

That is a statement

[glass imp]

no

[tropic berry]

I swear everyone wants everyone to buy every studio

[fervent rose]

rockstar, renowned multiplayer pvp developer

[tawny carbon]

Rockstar will kill battlefield

[vital quail]

I don't want to be mean to describe them but it's not a shitposter

[fervent rose]

i'm a rockstar fanboy and even i will shit on their multiplayer

[pliant bluff]

I'm just hoping R6 siege doesn't dissipate in the coming year

[hoary sentinel]

its true, i have 300 studios right now and no one knows

[pliant bluff]

With Ubisoft having a full blown melt down

[tropic berry]

Bro got a monopoly, gotta break those up

[tawny carbon]

I shit on rockstar all the time. Even tho they make good games

Not the best but good

[hoary sentinel]

they're all indie and iconic studios that have either gone under or i forgor about them so theyre actually putting out good games
just call me embracer

[pliant bluff]

I can't think of a major video game company that people don't have a problem with right now

[void gorge]

No, but I would like it to be and it would only be a statement if I were one of the owners of Rockstar or if I knew of "official" leaked information

[fervent rose]

anybody that has a problem with Larian studios is a fool

[vocal tusk]

Tencent

[pliant bluff]

Have digital extremes buy battlefield

[vocal tusk]

😆

[hoary sentinel]

ccp owned (1 percent yet somehow has a say in what they do)

[tropic berry]

So you would let Rockstar get the IP, and take 1,000 developers from other Rockstar projects to make Battlefield

[vocal tusk]

/s

[pliant bluff]

I mean they deal with both riot games and epic games so idk

[tawny carbon]

Tencent is a really big gaming company. Especially in Asia

[pliant bluff]

Tencent IS gaming in Asia

[tawny carbon]

They only have a small portion of ubi company

[pliant bluff]

The company is freakishly huge

[tropic berry]

Yeah i don't think many realise how big Tencent is

[tawny carbon]

Very big

Tencent is partnered if not take a % of many companies

[eager spire]

I mean yeah, Tencent is massive.

[tawny carbon]

40% of epic

[pliant bluff]

That's who makes Warframe btw

[eager spire]

I'm gonna be real though, I don't know if there are like, actual legitimate problems with Tencent. I feel like a lot of people just hate them because "china bad"

like

it just seems very simplistic and one note.

[tropic berry]

Tencent has had an effect on a fair few games post purchase that has not been great, but there is people who also hate on them for that reason

[tawny carbon]

Tencent provides mobile for companies tbh

[eager spire]

Which ones?

[fervent rose]

tencent doesnt really get hands on in a bad way, at least not yet. but the "china bad" thing is a valid concern

[tropic berry]

SuperCell is probably the biggest one that i can think of

[pliant bluff]

Especially due to how tencent may deal with your personal info

[eager spire]

The "china bad" thing is a valid concern

i'm gonna keep it a buck with you chief, no it isn't

[fervent rose]

sure sure, China's wonderful and full of rainbows

[eager spire]

something existing from China does not constitute a valid reason to hate it

that is not what i'm saying

[fervent rose]

no tyranny in China

[eager spire]

that is not what i'm saying.

[fervent rose]

lol.

[wise heath]

Spyware

[fervent rose]

you're just looking for some stupid argument

the ccp is dangerous, tencent might be influenced by them. its a valid concern.

im done with this topic now.

[eager spire]

No, seriously. The logic of hating things purely because they're from China is fucking stupid.

It would be stupid for any other part of the world.

[tropic berry]

Let's not get too heated here 😄

[pliant bluff]

Spyware

[wise heath]

are you guys going trick or treating

[tawny carbon]

Mobile game

[pliant bluff]

No but I'm still going to pester neighbors

[wise heath]

oh

[eager spire]

Like if there are reasons outside of the fact that it's from China, whatever. Fine. That's valid. I just can't accept the logic of "it comes from china therefore it's bad"

[tawny carbon]

Many things we use everyday is made in China

[eager spire]

Yes.

[tawny carbon]

If China is bad. Companies will never manufacture over there

[fervent rose]

again i said its a valid concern, not that "china product = bad"

dont reword what i said

[eager spire]

I disagree, I don't think it's a valid concern.

[fervent rose]

okay, i dont care

[eager spire]

I don't think "it's from china" is a valid concern.

[fervent rose]

good for you

[mossy wolf]

guys let's cool off

it's basically the same argument in another jacket for the last 30 messages

[tawny carbon]

Tencent brings a lot to the Chinese market. But handles a lot of mobile games from companies as well.

Honestly. Tencent is good in my opinion. They aren’t using data to harm anyone.

[wise heath]

What if it’s because China is and companies manufacture there

[tawny carbon]

What about it?

TikTok blew up across the world. Many people use it. And it’s not developed by tencent

[wise heath]

and the USA is trying to ban it

I wonder why

[tawny carbon]

After how long after since it came out?

[pliant bluff]

I've always wanted to go see China, it's on my list of countries to visit

[tawny carbon]

Same. I hear Singapore is beautiful asf

And fun

[fervent rose]

not trying. it's gonna be removed in a few months

that passed

[eager spire]

it blew up so hard that american companies are copying it's format and then trying to get it banned

[wise heath]

No one remembers all the vids from 2020 and 2021 that Tencent is just spyware?

[eager spire]

because they're pissed that a company that isn't from here is doing well.

[fervent rose]

tiktok will be banned on January 19th, 2025

[tawny carbon]

I hear so much about Singapore in the military. It’s wild asf. Makes me wanna go there personally.

[acoustic seal]

boomer politicians doing boomer politician things

[wise heath]

it’s a series of tubes

[eager spire]

Complaints that are lobbied against TikTok could also be held against every single other social media platform, but they don't give a shit about that because TikTok is from over there, and every other social media platform is not.

[acoustic seal]

oh dear god discord has a new ping sound turn it back immediately

[wise heath]

that’s true

[eager spire]

I'm always on Do Not Disturb so i never get ping noises.

[wise heath]

I bet those western social medias already sell the data to China anyways

[fervent rose]

it's not even about the data.

why do people want to act like the algorithm part is not important

[eager spire]

Because they don't wanna talk about that.

[wise heath]

yes we do

[tropic berry]

This isn't very Battlefield anymore

[acoustic seal]

there's not much to talk about with the actual game 🤷‍♂️

[wise heath]

Battlefield 2042 predicted this btw

[fervent rose]

we arent concerned about domestic social media

[eager spire]

They don't actually care about the problems being brought up, they just want TikTok gone so domestic companies can make more money.

[fervent rose]

i mean, they should be, but for different reasons

[eager spire]

Companies from around here are more than happy to rip off TikTok's entire format.

[wise heath]

anything with a TOS or EULA just sells your shit anyways

[fervent rose]

again, it's not about the data.

the ban is not about the data.

[wise heath]

It is

can they ban youtube then

[tawny carbon]

Data can be used for anything. Any company in the world. They won’t just target a Single App, just for data

[eager spire]

No. Because it's in America.

[wise heath]

more like just one side of the political paradigm

[eager spire]

Despite the fact that it has Russian investors, but that's neither here nor there.

[wise heath]

I see your reasoning

[fervent rose]

and i'm being a little facetious about calling yt propaganda, i just accept that it definitely can be used that way

[eager spire]

Oh it definitely can be.

[wise heath]

But this argument is just gonna turn if this gets banned why not this too which does same thing

[eager spire]

PragerU advertises a lot on YT.

[wise heath]

That’s not propaganda

YouTube isn’t actively pushing that

[void gorge]

Why would someone want my IP? and I would only hire all this amount of developers if they had training or certification because if I were to pay 1k people, without a doubt it would have to be a very well done job so that consequently the profit would be huge

[fervent rose]

it is, but not state sponsored

[wise heath]

They’re just simply uploading there

[tawny carbon]

TikTok in China is different from TikTok in America

[fervent rose]

prageru is like the definition of propaganda. just done by a private organization

[eager spire]

oh yeah, they have domestic offices, like any company does.

[wise heath]

every leftish news site is also propaganda

[tawny carbon]

I’m saying. The stuff that people see and view is far different

[tropic berry]

IP = intellectual property

[eager spire]

lmao

that is the funniest correction i've seen

[wise heath]

I feel bad for him

Having to translate all of this

Am sorry

[pliant bluff]

I'd say any news site these days, It was fun taking this one college course where we got to do things like point out different biases from major news sources

[tawny carbon]

Should use auto translator or learn English

Just a tip and trick

[wise heath]

I hope he’s learning English from translating

It’ll help him understand

more

[tawny carbon]

One day

[hoary sentinel]

he owns battlefield apparently he is ea

[tropic berry]

It is kind of funny to think about that we probably don't know his full on personality, because of the translator

[pliant bluff]

I will say I quite enjoy sniping in bf2042

[tropic berry]

He was pretty funny in BFEE ngl

[eager spire]

who, TK?

[pliant bluff]

I'll probably do that when I get home from work tonight

[eager spire]

I don't wanna know his personality, fuck that guy.

[hoary sentinel]

funny isnt the word i'd use but he's definitely a card

[wise heath]

how?

[fervent rose]

they know they are lying

[pliant bluff]

There are sites you can use that cross reference many many different articles at once and then write a summary taken from the few that you can read, as well as outline biases. It's actually quite incredible

[fervent rose]

you cant just conflate all garbage media with real journalists

thats absurd.

[pliant bluff]

I know ground news is one of them

[wise heath]

Because you’re basically saying anything with beliefs is propaganda and that completely devalues the word propaganda

[pliant bluff]

Are the real journalists in the room with us now?

[wise heath]

should operate on facts

[fervent rose]

prageru spits on facts

[wise heath]

Yeah I’ve seen the sponsors

[urban pollen]

Bf2042

Fun game

[pliant bluff]

This video is sponsored by

[wise heath]

I rage quit earlier today

[fervent rose]

if your "belief" goes contrary to reality, yeah, it's propaganda when you repeat it over and over and over trying to convert people

[tropic berry]

Ground News 😎

[wise heath]

Any belief can or will be contrary to reality or be correlate with reality, political beliefs are just how you view things

[fervent rose]

okay this is dumb

[eager spire]

yeah you seein' this guy?

[wise heath]

you’re confusing belief with rationality and logic

[fervent rose]

no i think you're confused

[pliant bluff]

Could be worse, could be sponsored by war thunder or raid

When an enemy shoots at the dozer's shield, do the bullets usually pass through easily?

[young panther]

still another year to go😔

[lavish patrol]

I thought the short barrel would be a bad idea for the RM68... boy was I wrong

[wise heath]

more fire rate is usually the way to go

[wise heath]

It’s just inconsistent

[lavish patrol]

Yeah I won a lot of gunfights with the short barrel now

[wise heath]

epic

[fervent rose]

if the gun has short barrel, equip it

[vital quail]

Gotta love a hind pilot flying level with a roof so that nobody can jump out onto it

Can't even do the one job they have

[void gorge]

But it's good that it takes the time necessary to arrive in perfect condition because you don't remember the failure that unfortunately was 2042 because of the countless bugs?

It's very likely that the next game will be made close to the Unreal Engine 5 graphics, so if I'm not wrong, we'll have to have a NASA PC to run it, but I still think that the next game will be an "improved" BF 4 and if that's the case, I'll personally continue. in 2042

[void gorge]

I didn't understand what you meant, if you could explain better I would appreciate it

[tame crow]

just watch the next bf is going to be same unoptimized buggy mess on release 2042 was

[eager spire]

https://youtu.be/ooWh-o-8ccc >Is the G57 still overpowered

i mean it is basically the best pistol in the game.

[vital quail]

I guess it would be if the bfp didn't exist

[eager spire]

the BFP doesn't have a 35 round drum mag though.

and the hipfire accuracy on it despite it being burst is insane.

[lavish patrol]

Is it me or are majority just clueless in how to use Zain's XM?

[pliant bluff]

There's no depth of field toggle in bf2042, correct?

[eager spire]

There's not much to learn.

it's a grenade launcher.

[lavish patrol]

Yes but every time I go up against one, they don't seem to bother using the range finder for it

Which causes them to waste all those rounds

[pliant bluff]

If there is, it's very hidden because I have been searching for a while

[pliant bluff]

What are the worst guns in bf2042 rn?

[pearl ridge]

The M93 is useless

[pliant bluff]

The pistol?

[pearl ridge]

Yeah. The damage and accuracy are both pitifully low

The burst mode can’t hit anything and the per-bullet damage is basically tickling them

[pliant bluff]

What about primary wise? What are a couple terrible guns?

[viral mica]

how is one bullet from the M416 to the head not a 1sk?

[split loom]

because its ar not a sniper

also why does 2042 have random fps drops freezing and game crashes

even after 3 years

this is why bf4 is better

[viral mica]

yeah but shouldn't any weapon be a 1sk to the head?

[vital quail]

Is this your first non r6 video game

[lavish patrol]

Yeah one shot head shots were never really a thing in battlefield games when it came to non-sniper weapons...

[eager spire]

That would be stupid and not fun at all.

[pliant bluff]

There's definitely only a few instances where something like that could work

First game that comes to mind is squad, which works because how tactical it is

But jeez I couldn't imagine that with bf pacing

[eager spire]

Squad is a significantly different type of game than BF. so no, it would not.

[pliant bluff]

That is what I am saying

How's the Aks-74u?

[vital quail]

Better than the p90 but worse than the pp

[pliant bluff]

So what's like the worst smg? Is it the p90?

[vital quail]

Yeah i would say so tbh

[pliant bluff]

Alright last question, what about assault rifles? Which one is worst?

[vital quail]

For non portal i would say the gew

[pliant bluff]

Alrighty

[next onyx]

Noooo

P90 good

"This, is a weapon of war. It's made to kill your enemy." - Jack O’Neill 2002.

[foggy lion]

well realistically yes ofc but you have to make the game somehow balanced bro..

[tame crow]

go play a milsim for that

[mental delta]

Because game sucks ?

If I ain't wrong we're supposed to have a few more infos about the next game this year but I'm not quite sure

Hopefully we can leave BF2042 for the best

[naive ember]

It's already considered a classic and they're making a legendary edition apparently

[mental delta]

Nobody ever considered it a classic you're tripping my dude

[robust ether]

It's in a pretty solid state these days but yeah I'm waiting for the next game personally

[mental delta]

I agree lol it's just my main personality as a French dude on this server to complain about BF2042 but yeah it's really decent now, I just personally can't stand it because of the lacking atmosphere

Game is a Frankenstein version of multiple BF games in one with cringe specialists

I just want a normal BF game tbh

[robust ether]

The atmosphere in the later maps is a lot better

REDACTED is one of my favorite maps in the game, it's super atmospheric and just plain good fun

[robust ether]

Also understandable LOL

[mental delta]

I agree as well but as a whole game lacks that bit of seriousness which made other games good imo

[robust ether]

I agree

That was kind of my problem with V, it didn't have that same grit of BF1, I do enjoy BFV though

[mental delta]

Like milsim only (or at least mostly) skins would make it better just like only having guns from the same era

[mental delta]

Yeah I get that a lot even though BFV was still much more serious than BF2042

[robust ether]

I'm at least kind of surprised they had the voice actors rerecord new, more militant voice lines for the specialists

I half expected them to just remove the voice lines

But they're at an okay state now like most of the game

I still think specialists aren't the core of Battlefield and prefer the basic class system but they're at least more tolerable now, that's kind of all my opinions in 2042 just "it's better now" lol

The new BF game seems super promising so far. Gonna hold off on saying anything for sure because 2042 looked great too but I'm hopeful we'll get a Battlefield comeback

[atomic egret]

Bad Co 3 please...

[tawny carbon]

2042 is a good game overall. Great game tbh. Not the best or best of the best. But great overall. Bad launch but BF4 is way worse. But I do wanna play a new game at the end of the day. Hopefully they don’t rush and cut a lot of content out before launch like they did for 2042

Please make it new gen only. Fuck last gen.

[naive ember]

It's the best game

10/10

[tawny carbon]

I’d say it’s 7/10 at most 8/10

[naive ember]

Thanks EA for a perfect fps

[tawny carbon]

They can do a lot more to 2042. But rn since barely any support left on it. Since new game is in full fledge development. I’d give it overall 8

[naive ember]

Can I get perm back now?

[tawny carbon]

Be a staff/legacy/regular role

[naive ember]

Nah man pay to win >

[tawny carbon]

Server booster don’t have perms since EA took over

[mental delta]

They got me with the traditional classes are back (no specialists) thing

[spare quest]

EA stopped pay2win

[mental delta]

I just hope they won't make operators like COD does

[tawny carbon]

Pay4Perms

Tbf, specialist was supposed to be in BFV. But wasn’t ready enough so they moved it to 2042

[mental delta]

They won't rush apparently game even got delayed, EA wanted it this year but Vince Zampella or whoever is leading the teams at Dice asked for a 1 year delay and they gave it

[tawny carbon]

I know. I’m just saying. I hope it don’t come out as rushed

I doubt it. Buts it’s Dice

[mental delta]

Leaks point out to 50 guns, 10 maps and a normal BF game so I'd say for now we're good

[tawny carbon]

I hope it’s more like BF4 weapon categories sharing and BF4 class perks system

[mental delta]

Yeah I agree

They should make BF4 gun restrictions come back imo

It makes no sense to play a fucking LMG with a Recon

[tawny carbon]

BF4 had 1 exclusive weapon category per class.

Assault AR, Medic Smg, Eng MGs, Recon snipers. Other class categories were shared with other certain classes

Overall. BF4 did it perfectly a lot of variety. But certain categories go on said class

Some categories were versatile amongst other classes like DMRs, PDW

[mental delta]

I know it was incredible

It was just kinda bad we couldn't put GL on carbines

Otherwise it was really good

[tawny carbon]

I feel like. That could be a class exclusive

But would be nice as well

[mental delta]

Yup Assault exclusive gadget would be good

Because putting GL on a sniper might be some of the dumbest crap I've seen in FPS games

[tawny carbon]

I wonder if we will have class passives back like from 2042. Or BF4 perk system

I hope it’s BF4 perk system

Medic with combat medic was crazy good for heals.

But offensive and defensive for any class was good as well

Sniper had some good perk system for its playstyle exclusively for sniping

[void gorge]

Is the concussion grenade just to blind the enemy with a kind of white barrier? because like... I've tested this grenade on vehicles and it generally doesn't do any damage

[somber wing]

can anyone give me some tips and tricks how to get better in bf 2042 i just suck don´t know why

[spare quest]

What a surprise

[chilly jacinth]

Concussion only works on infantry man

How can you not know even that

[spare quest]

He probably doesn‘t knows about emp grenades

[somber wing]

can anyone give me some tips and tricks how to get better in bf 2042 i just suck don´t know why?

[tawny carbon]

Everything works for infantry

[tawny carbon]

Play cautiously and have fun

Don’t play any battlefield like cod

It’s a very casual fps game in the entire genre for multiplayer

Be aware of your surroundings

[spare quest]

and dont die

[void gorge]

what?

[mental delta]

I'd say a mix of both influenced by COD older system, you get to choose a passive trait or passive-active thing that may be restricted to classes

[mental delta]

https://tenor.com/view/every60seconds-in-africa-meme-africa-big-man-tyrone-gif-18108927

[void gorge]

Does it only work on infantry? so its effect is clearly bugged because I sent the grenade right in the direction of the enemy and saw that no xp appeared on the screen indicating that it caused damage to the enemy and you asked me how I don't even know that but I'm sure you don't know either 100% of the things about the game and if you know, I kindly ask you to tell me EVERYTHING

[chilly jacinth]

The game literally tells you what it does

[tawny carbon]

I wouldn’t say it’s influenced by cod. Just have faster movement for battlefield

[chilly jacinth]

and it shows you what it does

[tawny carbon]

The video for gadgets is good for new players

[void gorge]

And where does the game tell me what I have to do? and you probably used this argument to justify that you also don't know most things about the game and then want to criticize others

[mental delta]

I don't say it is lol I say it could be, Vince Zampella worked on COD after all I wouldn't be surprised to see things from COD in BF

I think it would be a good thing for next game to have gunsmith tbh

[tawny carbon]

Isn’t he the head of respawn or sum like that

Plus he moved to respawn around TF1/apex timeframe

[naive ember]

Check the manual

[tawny carbon]

So his last game was OG MW2

[tawny carbon]

Collection screen. Over hover the gadgets in game. Will show you a vid

[chilly jacinth]

Game has descriptions and tutorial vids for almost everything

[tawny carbon]

Description for everything. Vids for everything but vehicles and weapons

[void gorge]

But the point is that this "discussion" has nothing to do with collection, my dear, but rather a probable bug in the grenade damage system that our "dear" EA should resolve

[naive ember]

[tawny carbon]

So concussion should do dmg to vehicles

If you see a hit on a vehicle. It don’t do dmg either way it does very minimal amount of dmg to infantry

[vocal tusk]

Just block the guy. Their takes are the worst.

[void gorge]

Yes, because usually while the game is loading, phrases appear with tips on what to do during the game, but the point is that I asked you to tell me everything you know and clearly you don't know even half of the things

[chilly jacinth]

What are you even talking about

[glass condor]

You smoke to much bro

[spare quest]

he thinks you were talking about the loading screen tips

[chilly jacinth]

[tawny carbon]

Collection screen not loading screen

[chilly jacinth]

Ouija already told him where to find what he's looking for

[void gorge]

but that's when I'm saying that there must be some kind of bug because I threw this grenade towards the enemy vehicle and saw that it didn't do any damage and then I feel like a clown

[spare quest]

[tawny carbon]

It’s prob not a big. The nada register a hit. A hit don’t always mean that it does dmg.

[void gorge]

yes but if it wasn't about that then the fucking translator translated it wrong

[tawny carbon]

Is your pc set to your native language?

[void gorge]

Would the spiritual world be able to help me with a question related to a game?

[olive stag]

Hello.Couldnt join my friends party.allways error message. after 4 tries now i even dont see any friend online.i mean this is an old error but still there ? how can i fix it ?

[spare quest]

The detonation does like 1-3 damage on infantry, why would it damage vehicles

[tawny carbon]

[void gorge]

But if hitting the enemy doesn't mean it causes damage, then is the existence of that weapon in the game useless?

[tawny carbon]

It’s not even lethal enough to do any sort of dmg to vehicles

[naive ember]

Must be a good feeling for you

[spare quest]

Bruh its a flashbang, its only supposed to blind players

[tawny carbon]

It does very minimal amount of dmg to infantry. None to vehicles

[tawny carbon]

https://tenor.com/view/this-gif-4354544

[chilly jacinth]

The concussion effect only works on infantry

and that's intended

[void gorge]

That's why it would be good to have a channel at least in Spanish because it's fucking tiring having to translate messages and sometimes the translation comes out wrong

[tawny carbon]

EA need other language moderators for that

English is just easier to moderate

English is also very versatile for many people

[void gorge]

So that's exactly what I've been referring to since the beginning of this "discussion"

[naive ember]

It's not hard to learn English bud

[void gorge]

So EA should adjust the damage of this grenade because people said that its damage is minimal when you throw it towards the enemy and consequently makes this weapon practically useless

[chilly jacinth]

My brother in christ you don't use it as a normal grenade

It's a concussion

It's used to blind people

[void gorge]

I understand that you need moderators who speak other languages ​​but I mentioned Spanish because if I'm not mistaken, Spanish is one of the main languages ​​in the world so much so that there is a famous school that I won't mention the name of because I'm not being paid to "publicize" but the "phrase" of this school's advertisement they say "English and Spanish is (name of school)"

[void gorge]

and would you be interested in learning other languages? Even because English is not the only language in the world and even if it were it would be boring

[void gorge]

I understand, my dear, the issue is that as the damage from this grenade is minimal, it makes it practically useless, and even the dozer shield kills the enemy, generally with the slightest "touch" on the enemy's body.

[spare quest]

oh boy

[chilly jacinth]

At this point it's just skill issue that you can't use it properly
