battlefield-2042

[fervent rose]

rare, but those people are dope

[wise heath]

If you could have your own gunner gadgets in 2042

I think more people would stay as a gunner

[fickle wharf]

i call out spearhead cube roof snipers in chat so our teams air can clear it out

[wise heath]

epic

It’s working for me

[fickle wharf]

its annoying when they jump from the E1 cube n back cap us

[fervent rose]

far too often they will steal your vehicle the moment you get out to repair or do anything productive

i much prefer an empty tank to one with random squadmates in it, sadly

[wise heath]

Same

Back when I used to play hardline

The only vehicle I’ve ever seat warmed was the intervention suv

Was really good at it

But I would get fucked if a teammate joins

[fervent rose]

the way I like to play is > HE shell, swap to tow, swap back to HE, swap to rocket pod, swap back to HE

you dont have to sit and wait for either tow or rocket, as soon as its fired you can swap back

[wise heath]

Yeah swapping is the key when soloing vehicles

[fervent rose]

tank duels are so easy with that loadout, people dont expect the burst damage

[eager spire]

I hated the SUV's in Hardline.

[wise heath]

I used to hold back the entire enemy team from entering the house in riptide

[eager spire]

"oh the windows are bulletproof" fuck off.

[wise heath]

heh

[eager spire]

Or even in the front seat.

[wise heath]

to make it balanced

Only the front or backseat should be bulletproof

Not the entire thing

plus surviving rpg sometimes two

[eager spire]

nah fuck that, i think if it's just sitting there, you should be able to get shot out of it.

teach you to just sit there.

[pliant bluff]

It took me three hours but the second wind of energy came back around after getting off work

It gaming time

[wise heath]

goodie

I miss that suv, was the best

took some actual skill and positioning to not get immediately overwhelmed

instead of just flying high above where no one can get you

[eager spire]

i've had people literally just sit in the SUV in a low-pop server, like what the fuck are you doing.

[wise heath]

the people who just try to snipe with backseat suck

you actually have to get close to objs

this guy on Xbox

bibofe I think the gamertag

does that shit

[eager spire]

i've seen people on PC do that shit

[wise heath]

on pc

Can you switch to whatever you seat want?

[eager spire]

i think seat switching is a thing yeah?

[wise heath]

Or is it on console where you have to cycle through all the seats

[eager spire]

i donno if you have to cycle.

[wise heath]

uhhh

like Xbox, have to press A to switch seats, and have to cycle through all the seats to get to the one I need

What about pc? Do ya guys press like 4 and go to backseat then 2 turret gunner?

[fickle wharf]

yes

[wise heath]

Ah

[eager spire]

I donno. I assume you can, but I never did on Hardline. I don't play vehicles enough to do that anyway.

[wise heath]

I was gonna say the counter to suv seat warmers was throwing a molotov at the turret gunner

[eager spire]

yeah but nothing stopping 'em from switching seats and driving off

and you can't shoot 'em out because of the FUCKING BULLETPROOF WINDOWS

[wise heath]

they have to switch to the turret seat eventually, they catch on fire and if you shot them once in head, will die

[eager spire]

yeah but you can't because of the windows.

otherwise i'd be able to shoot 'em out anyway.

[wise heath]

the turret seat, the exposed one, at the top of the vehicle

[eager spire]

there's an SUV that has a turret in the back.

that's covered by a window.

[wise heath]

Hard to explain without visuals

Sorry

[eager spire]

I am talking about the Armored SUV.

[next onyx]

It was really just a glorified turret. Annoying but the guy one the receiving end would just get murked with rockets.

Proper SUV squads actually using the minigun was way more effective.

Miniguns in hardline ripped people in half but they had little range.

[eager spire]

yeah but the thing about it was that i am someone that got the game on Steam. I do not have access to the trunk RPG, and i never got it because there are very few servers on the game. And also people will literally camp with that thing in lowpop servers for some reason.

[next onyx]

If you knew the maps you could easily find a random RPG lying around.

Through battle pick ups.

SMAW would instantly murk it anyways.

[eager spire]

unfortunately i did not.

I still think making the windows bulletproof was a stupid idea.

[next onyx]

It's fine but the issue was its annoying guns with all the range they had.

If they had more spread it wouldn't be much of an issue since they'd be open to counterplay from mechanics.

That sounds weird to say.

[eager spire]

Yeah. I still think if you manage to get close to one, especially going around the drivers side window, you should be able to shoot that fucker out of there.

[next onyx]

I mean engies.

[eager spire]

yeah i know

[next onyx]

I don't like the idea of them acting as turrets I found it frustrating but in the saying of that I don't like the idea of snipers being able to instantly murk the driver in specific.

[eager spire]

I think if snipers can land the shot then they should be able to.

[next onyx]

The best thing you may as well have done is make the innaccurate from the get go so you need to be close to use the seat guns decently.

If they can sure but honestly it would have killed the viability the proper use of the SUV. If it went through the side seats then sure.

[eager spire]

it's apparently a medium transport.

as far as i'm concerned, the proper use should be for that and not just sitting on an objective shooting at guys.

or in my experience, sitting on an objective they already capped in a lowpop server shooting at guys.

[next onyx]

But hey

The SUV was the least of the concerns when the MCC existed.

Those were fun for five man breaching bombs.

Oh man the CAT was so fucking fun.

Spreading tear gas which made you take double damage when you were under its effects.

Battle rifles could OHK people to the head whenever they were under the influence of gas.

[eager spire]

I love trying to shoot at a CAT only for it to drive off as soon as i even think about aiming at it with an RPG.

Fucking rats.

[next onyx]

Eh the vehicle TTK was quick.

I didn't have too much of an issue taking them out.

[eager spire]

yeah but vehicle players all play like fucking rats, makes taking them out annoying.

especially when i'm the only one really trying.

[next onyx]

Vehicle balance was rather one dimensional. If they were running AP LMG you can out damage them with M3m's.

Which was good.

Cause m3m's weren't good for infantry.

Vehicle balance was pretty alright in hardline despite it being cancerous sometimes.

Me when the squad rushes the fuck to get the transport chopper on hollywood heights and all we hear is fucking DMR's and snipers firing at us and repping it to hell.

[eager spire]

damn i just checked and there's a grand total of 2 servers on Hardline at the moment

and 3 players on one of them.

and those might be seeding alts.

[primal field]

Im re installing it, verify files didn't worked

Broken file it said Error

Is anyone else got that before?

[pliant bluff]

How good is the AEK-971?

[chilly jacinth]

Average at best

[pearl ridge]

God shotguns are so much more satisfying in this game than in COD

[lavish patrol]

AEK is like only king in close quarters maps

[pearl ridge]

Like I'm popping people from ranges that wouldn't even tickle someone in the other game

Really the main issue now is that we still don't have a double barrel

Because those are always fun

[eager spire]

in this game? It gets beat by any 2042 AR with short barrel.

[pliant bluff]

I gotta finish unlocking the HK m416 first

[vital quail]

Are the panels in the server room? areas on spearhead the only materials in the game that can be shot through?

[pine roost]

can't believe how many hours I have in this game. Basically just log on to play with new updates for a few hours but somehow i've amassed nearly 400

doesn't feel like i've played that much

[next onyx]

Ironically I feel like you would have gotten more.

[mental finch]

Sadly not very, you'll have an okay time with it on maps like Redacted or haven, but you're better off with pretty much any other AR

Rate of fire makes it cool for super close range stuff, but the reload time is pretty ass

[opal veldt]

I have this problem
when I catch the planes

DirectX function "m_device1 Plat->SetResidencyPriority(1, &pageable, &priority)" failed with E_INVALIDARG ("An invalid parameter was passed to the returning function."). GPU: "Radeon RX 5500 XT", Driver: 24.10.27.01

[little turret]

is the game down? i cant find a game for anything

it just gives me an error after 2 minutes

[hollow pewter]

Who playing 2042

[sage cosmos]

anyone else having trouble with loading in to a game?

[minor steeple]

I can't find the match

server error

[orchid tusk]

bt?

[sleek sluice]

down for me can't get into any games

[minor steeple]

the server has a problem, Admin.

[hardy python]

bf2042 server broken/

?

[modest oar]

yes

[hardy python]

dang

[minor steeple]

I got into the game but couldn't find the match, great.

[naive ember]

Go outside

[modest oar]

😂

[orchid tusk]

anybody getting persistent error again?

[hardy python]

lmaoo

[near silo]

broke ass bf2042

[night summit]

🤔

Are the developers silent?

[near silo]

Is this not actually ran by EA DICE? THis Discord

[tawny carbon]

It’s ran by EA and Dice

Officially

[tawny carbon]

They are silent about future stuff. They talk here and there in FnB. But we just have normal convos. Nothing related to Dice or Battlefield games tbh.

Just a normal civil convo

[spare quest]

wrong

but

[tawny carbon]

[night summit]

It used to be better informed. I remember even if technical work was planned, the players already knew about it in advance...

[pearl ridge]

Fucking Arica. On Control, three out of four of the initial points are closer to the RU spawn than the US one

[naive ember]

Boo hoo

[sage cosmos]

battlefield isnt down for you???

[night summit]

You can enter the game

[sage cosmos]

yea but u cant play it right?

it says error for me

[fickle wharf]

what region

[naive ember]

Look at his profile bud

[void gorge]

I was playing earlier today and there was a moment when I witnessed a bot driving a small vehicle, but the vehicle was "stuck" in a place where the bot couldn't get out, but the bot just kept accelerating the vehicle instead of trying to maneuver it. different ways so I started thinking.. is this artificial "intelligence"?

[hoary sentinel]

yeah, thats artificial intelligence

[naive ember]

Something was wrong with the vehicle

ERROR: Unable to load persistence data... Error code: 15:136006S:136003S:136001S:136002S:-7A

[tawny carbon]

Did you restart the game?

[latent prairie]

Tesla Optimus driving, isn't it?

[still vault]

Persistence data is typically the back-end systems / server hamsters are having a hard time. Lets pray that the server hamsters begin to run fast again.

https://tenor.com/view/gonk-gonkas-server-down-server-minecraft-gif-27644168

[hoary sentinel]

gonk mentioned, send in the gonk droids

[bold bane]

Yes i reboot it PC & modem/router....
Still error "Connection timeout Please see ea.com/unable-to-connect for more information Error code: 1:86001S:66003S:8917511980:0B"

[tawny carbon]

Did you verify files?

[tawny carbon]

True. Could also be your side connecting to them

[bold bane]

ok repairing...

25%

[still vault]

that would more typically result in general connection errors, but sure

[tawny carbon]

If they don’t work. Maybe restart pc and router.

[tawny carbon]

Only why i said that. Cuz I had it. Before once in a blue moon. As the server was playing just fine with no issues

But who knows tbh

[still vault]

If you are already on a server, it's typicaly fine. Then the sync with persistence data has already happened. Then the server will have trouble syncing though which will result in delayed stats etc.

[tawny carbon]

I see

[bold bane]

Repair completed... still error "Unable to load persistence data."

[tawny carbon]

Mmm 🤔

https://www.reddit.com/r/battlefield2042/comments/157x98o/unable_to_load_persistence_data_error_anyone_else/

The old trick in the book. Aka first comment might work.

Or DNS servers

[primal field]

Server and game down?

Im re installation it, hope they will fix it soon

Will have it in 10hours if it don't open again I'll wait for the patch, I wanted so much to play bf2042

[naive ember]

Game is fine

Totally fine

[void gorge]

It's a good thing that this "intelligence" is only in the game because if I bought a robot like that to use at home and it had this intelligence broken from EA on the same day I would ask for a refund and look for another seller

[void gorge]

Maybe yes or maybe not, but at first it wasn't because the bot was just doing some maneuvers and it would probably move out of place.

[hushed lark]

what gun would you guys use for an AP launcher? so far I've tried the DFR, the SFAR and the AK5C

[wise heath]

I think the ap launcher is the worst one

only ones worth using is the smoke and incendiary

[hushed lark]

I've only played engineer so far and that extra damage is nice sometimes

[wise heath]

Is there a challenge or achievement for it?

Ah

Nvm that makes sense

I say scar

Cant equip any grip so not really hindering yourself

Plus one of the better guns in the game

[hushed lark]

I've been enjoying the AK5C with subsonic and heavy supressor.
I'll probably try the SCAR again, thanks!

[wise heath]

with a set like that you’re invisible at all times when shooting

alrighty good luck

[vagrant saffron]

I wonder too!, anyone a clue?

It's not a isseu, it is a features et of the BugsField Series.

[heady root]

delta force better than battlefield 2042

and delta force is indie team

[vagrant saffron]

Stop hacking into gameservers and applying invisibility cloaks to it's players equipment. 😜🤣

[lavish patrol]

Can't really call it an indie team when Tencent is funding it

[heady root]

their extraction game mode is way better too than hazard zone which died day one lmao

so embarassing

[tawny carbon]

Firestorm flopped when BFV came out

Didn’t receive much attention to continue support for it

[heady root]

im playing delta force demo

[lavish patrol]

AAA devs chasing trends... of course it's gonna flop

[heady root]

its shocking how bad bd 2042 is lol

[tawny carbon]

Delta force is a indie version of BF2042

[heady root]

and its better than bf 2042 !

[naive ember]

Sure bud

[tawny carbon]

Mmm 🤔 I wouldn’t say it’s better

Prob towards cod sure. But to 2042. Looks like a copy pasta

[lavish patrol]

Like I said, can't really call the devs indie

[vagrant saffron]

Magnum side arm is better then that... 1 shot to 350 possibly (450?)meters, - even quadruple • possibly it's triple shot - up to 600 meters cannot remember too long ago.

Once did over thirty kills @ just shy of 550 meters with Magnum, one killstreak only 18 where headshots thus requiring A LOT more hits.

[heady root]

competition is good thing , maybe the devs will make the next game better

[acoustic seal]

(chat, does he know?)

[lavish patrol]

Don't worry, it's gonna be a "loveletter" to BF fans

[tawny carbon]

Only battlefield can kill battlefield

[mental delta]

Maybe they'll make next game better but it'll surely not be because of competition

[tawny carbon]

It’s like destiny and cod. They can only kill their own game

[lavish patrol]

Just like only CoD can kill CoD. How many "cod killers" were released and were able to kill cod?

[mental delta]

BF isn't a competitive shooter

It isn't the goal when you play BF

[tawny carbon]

Have they killed cod?

No, so it’s not a competition

Battlefield is the most casual shooter in the genre of sandbox

[lavish patrol]

Battlebit tried to be a called killer... now barely 1k players play it.

[tawny carbon]

Battlebit is never gonna kill battlefield

[heady root]

battlebit is like minecraft no one took that serious

[acoustic seal]

battlebit had a very confused development direction where you had the permissive vaulting and faster speeds pushing up against bleeding and bandaging for some reason?

[vocal tusk]

Lmao. No it isn't. The IP is literally owned and backed by Tencent

[eager spire]

and people told 'em that that was a dumb idea and they were like "no we're keeping it like this"

and then they're surprised that the game died

[acoustic seal]

delta force has a different problem where they're trying to develop two games at once for the chinese market and kicking them out to the rest of the globe with minimal changes

[tawny carbon]

Battlebit is like battlefield but BBR always kept what Battlebit was from the start

[eager spire]

it's the same game, they're just optimizing/localizing for the rest of the world after making it for China.

[vagrant saffron]

Thanks for contributing into educating the public on BF!

[heady root]

this their first real game and EA have 20 years experience. They are indie team for sure

[tawny carbon]

That’s why mechanics is like that. Like bleeding, bandages and ect

[acoustic seal]

the tarkov-lite and the battlefield mode i mean

[vocal tusk]

And for console and mobile. But they have more studios and devs working on it than likely the next BF game. These are NOT an indie studio

[wise heath]

Pardon?

[acoustic seal]

and they're all in on the shitty extraction shooter from the dev talks

[tawny carbon]

[eager spire]

yeah but here's the thing: those mechanics in combination with the player speed and movement is a terrible idea, and people have told them that.

[heady root]

how would u know einstein?

[vagrant saffron]

Tracer rounds = visible

[eager spire]

ohhhh.

[vocal tusk]

I can see the public pages for the 5/6 studios working on it hahaha

[eager spire]

aren't they working on a paid campaign as well

how's that gonna work

[tawny carbon]

You play at your own pace. And take risk. But the mechanics still live on what Battlebit is.

[vocal tusk]

Yes, 2 other studios are working on that campaign in unreal 5

[vagrant saffron]

It never has to be if you can be quick enough on release of fire trigger.

[eager spire]

unfortunately what Battlebit is, is not good enough.

[vocal tusk]

Multi-player uses ue4, campaign will be paid and use unreal 5

[eager spire]

understandable

[heady root]

u cant compare triple AAA from USA or Europe from China

[eager spire]

why not

[vocal tusk]

Because racism

[heady root]

they have different cost to make the game such as labor

[eager spire]

you sure about that?

[vocal tusk]

Like eastern devs haven't been putting out bangers for decades

[weak vector]

What does that have to do with anything lol

[vagrant saffron]

Kinda cool it gives you that distance to keep cover, at reamge that is a plus for minor visibility.

[heady root]

yes look at black myth wukong amazing game

cant say the same for bf 2042 lol

[weak vector]

I'll compare all I want lol

[vagrant saffron]

Hmm, interesting.

[eager spire]

why does AAA mean different things depending on the region, that is an insane take

[tawny carbon]

You know BF2042 was rushed in under 2 years right?

[weak vector]

I think he's a troll

[eager spire]

yes it was. it is still bad.

[weak vector]

We bit the bait, lads

[eager spire]

probably.

[tawny carbon]

https://www.tweaktown.com/news/83223/battlefield-2042-only-had-15-months-of-development-explains-lot/index.html

15 months of development time

[heady root]

u remember in the beta when the dev said they were on different build xd, good times

[vocal tusk]

Delta Force only looks good compared to 2042. Compared to even BFV it is very barebones and unpolished. Also only 4 maps at release for the battlefield mode.

[eager spire]

according to Tom Henderson

[weak vector]

How long do these games usually take to make

[eager spire]

you just take that guy's word as gospel, huh

[vocal tusk]

4 years, usually longer

[weak vector]

Oh damn

[heady root]

and what they do in the other year a half , jerk off?

[tawny carbon]

Ayo

[weak vector]

He's a troll at this point. Pay him no attention

[chilly jacinth]

Hiding doesn't work

cause scope glint

[vagrant saffron]

When sniping one should pick and keep targets a long distance to not lose covered position and be tougher to hit.
Preferably hidden in bush and shadow.

[heady root]

we have hope for next battlefield if they release fall 2025, 4 years of development, should be good.

[eager spire]

we like scope glint as a mechanic

not having scope glint is dumb

[vocal tusk]

And hopefully no last gen version

[heady root]

but i think the devs are not as good as the older ones imo, lot of new fresh college graduates no experience

[vocal tusk]

No having to make 2 map versions for every map

Who?

[weak vector]

I miss the days when we had good maps

[tawny carbon]

I hope they don’t. I honestly think that kind of hurt devs for 2042

[eager spire]

I don't think it hurt them as much as you believe it does

[vagrant saffron]

This is due to lower fire rate, thus less reactive between projectile and the openings it travels trough and passes by.

[heady root]

my favorite map Kharg island rush, i do anything to go back

[eager spire]

as previously established, it wasn't like they really cut anything from 2042 due to last-gen being a thing.

[vocal tusk]

Of course. Their decision to do 128p also hurt it.

Meant they had to make 128 and 64p versions of every map. Ended up being compromised experiences for both

[tawny carbon]

They were hardware restricted

[heady root]

OMG dont even get me started with these poor people with ps4/xbox one who cant afford to upgrade

[eager spire]

honestly, we don't need 128 players.

[vocal tusk]

Thankfully that is in the bin

[tawny carbon]

And they kinda wanted the same update on both gens, no different excluding 128p exclusive for new gen

[heady root]

how u cant afford $400 console, is crazy man. and we all gotta suffer cus they hold us back

[vocal tusk]

Income is not high in all countries.

[vagrant saffron]

AEK has high fire rate does it not?
M16A3 is simply the most solid/stable one when on the move...partly so is the AEK (when bursting).

[vocal tusk]

Hourly wage where I live is 4 euro per hours.

[tawny carbon]

[weak vector]

Wtf

How do you survive

[eager spire]

they don't

[vocal tusk]

I work remote for a non local company

[wise heath]

Yeah, a hundred more than m16a3

[weak vector]

Ahh

[tawny carbon]

Hourly wage where I live is 9usd

[heady root]

yea the key is to not work at mcdonalds!

get a good skill in life and u can make good money

[tawny carbon]

They make more than a E1-3 in the military

[weak vector]

I make a pretty okay wage here

[vocal tusk]

Even at 9, that's a full weeks wages for a 400 USD console. Most can't do that with rent, bills, food and other expenses.

[vagrant saffron]

I have played metro BF3 in complete darkness, DICE liked the mod so much they released a DLC in the dark and later title maps again because of our requests.
#Dark Maps and DLC History

[weak vector]

Someone told me that my monitor HDR settings might fuck things up a bit

[heady root]

those who make 9 USD priority should not be video games, it should be how I can make more money

[vocal tusk]

Do you use 2042 native HDR?

[tawny carbon]

HDR and shadow settings. Low brightness as well

[weak vector]

I have no clue where to find HDR settings anymore

[tawny carbon]

In display

[heady root]

IMO ban all last gen players, they need to get their money up

[weak vector]

I'm using my monitor HDR settings I believe

[eager spire]

HDR was apparently the cause of several lighting bugs in BF1.

[vocal tusk]

2042 native HDR is pretty bad. RTX HDR looks good tho, albiet at a performance cost.

[weak vector]

Didn't realize 2042 had native HDR

[tawny carbon]

If you turn of HDR settings in windows. It will natively be off for any game/app you run

[vagrant saffron]

The mod allowed destroying ALL light sources, which is the reason and has been the trigger coming from a related request of mine to implement light switch in lockers in BF4 Metro which was followed up by and lead to a map known as Lockers.

[weak vector]

I tried and it looked so ugly without HDR

I can't ever go back ;_;

[tawny carbon]

I increase vibrance in Nvidia control panel. Make colors and stuff pop more

[weak vector]

Oh uhh I have AMD

I haven't bought Nvidia in years

[vagrant saffron]

Use IR scopes/sights....no fun if there isn't a proper use scenario for it after all.

[tawny carbon]

Ummm 🤔 idk AMD vibrance settings is at. Of AMD even provide it

[weak vector]

I can check later when I get home. I appreciate the help

[tawny carbon]

Found it

[chilly jacinth]

Adrenaline has a bunch of settings

[tawny carbon]

So it might be vivid for AMD

[vagrant saffron]

They have to opt between balance and realism.
Between a person's skill level and hardware differentials can be a huge gap.

[heady root]

u have to get good hdr monitor

[vagrant saffron]

If it is a green growing compound... I heard Germany legalized it.
Tho not sure for who out there it is.

Savage at short range vs tough to be used repetetively at range.

[weak vector]

Ooh thank you, I'll have a look later in my settings

[vagrant saffron]

Folks that really want to make a difference, prepare a properly educative and constructively contributing explanatory presentation and present it To DICE in there Sweden office or annually in second week of #August Cologne Gamescom.

Been there as press / DICE VIP and EVERYTHING I head there that made sense in the weekend they implemented to BF Hardline and later titles.

Want them to listen?, go and meet them, great people so where EA (Community) Managers.

[wise heath]

Take the aek out of the game

Treyarch

[pliant bluff]

It's so simple, If you want dice to hear feedback, just go tell them in person

[vagrant saffron]

Shoot me a DM would love to play, it seems like everyone wanna type and chat in stead of VC in channels/Squads.
Hoping to populairity of active VC again.

[pliant bluff]

Treyarch doesn't make battlefield bruh, you're thinking of sledgehammer

[vagrant saffron]

BT?¿?

+1

Many more I myself have experienced 100 - 150K players since release AND i have been AFK for 2+ years /3.

[eager spire]

it's a 3 round burst DMR in Bo6, you'll be okay.

you'll survive.

you'll probably die to some other bullshit anyway.

[vagrant saffron]

I even played CoD with my 20 - 30K BF playtime hours.
I am Dutch and it was free, could not resist, and a online friend whom I spend a weekend with @Gamescom plays CoD thus bought one because of it.
Same goes for during teen times, followed others into it.

[vital quail]

He’s cool

Let him be

[wise heath]

ITS IN BO6???

7 more days till ptsd

or is it 6?

[eager spire]

yes it's a 3 round burst DMR.

like i said

you'll probably die to some other bullshit anyway.

[wise heath]

Biggest problem in beta was the ak74u

[vagrant saffron]

Could have told him down...
Contradicting PC N*rd with needing to update.
Or was that your point?

[eager spire]

not even called that but okay

[wise heath]

Yeah idk the name

It’s not even ak74u

[eager spire]

Jackal PDW.

[wise heath]

Some other Russian pdw

[vagrant saffron]

Find a Portal AI only 128 or if need be 64 server.
Six to twenty hours of that and you got what you want.

Some Russians are amazing at complex engendering I noticed in a video in the past which explained Jet turbine components from USSR.

Always when chatting join VC channels listening (muted) in 11, 12 @2042 and channels 3 on legacy to get and keep a more active player base on BF Series....

Preferably General channels when VoiceCommunicatively idle.

Don't complain untill you have been part of the solution for several seasons.

Your support can make the difference.

Play more & get more people to Discord.
You ain't got a problem but are part of the solution

Rejoin and play on other game mode in between, go back to what you want to play and possibly you are by then paired to play in a filled server.

The joinen system was designed to implement various aspects of the game, it's modes, maps and varieties thus often it actually asks you to fill it by pacing you in a server to be filled with your online friends.

Add everyone you played with in Party, Spuad Or even team/entire server...
Then follow up by always inviting everyone online every time...
Want the servers filled?, Go DO something about it!

[naive ember]

[wise heath]

He’s true

[vital quail]

Gotta be yapGPT

[eager spire]

I got 'em blocked

i don't feel like seeing all that

[vagrant saffron]

I play and ignore the obvious, it's the BugsField Series Folks!

#DICE
#EA
#battlefield-legacy-titles Feedback
#battlefield-legacy-titles Bad Company 3?

+1 I concur, that would be very cool and within boundaries of what army uses thus relevant to be implemented.

Viewed from other end of spectrum as presonell one could be trained to dive long distances without equipment.
Begging the question: is diving equipment relevant Folks?

[pliant bluff]

I just sniped the whole beta

I hear they're adding in a "fast" sniper, so I'm sure that'll be everybody's go to

[vagrant saffron]

I agree, the past has shown that various water levels and flooding made for some awesome gameplay which is played upon Al the way to today still active servers have it deployed.

[pliant bluff]

I'll just call it the AWP

[wise heath]

Csgo

[pliant bluff]

The AWP should just be the police version of the rifle

There's also the AWM

[vagrant saffron]

Thanks, forgot tot total name ☺️👍
Floodzone can still be played on active servers for as far as I am up to date on this.

2042 has no single player story mode... ....sadly!

Is there a story/campaign mode in 2042???!??????!...
Would love to pay that!!!

[wise heath]

There isn’t

There’s that one trailer with Irish

[vagrant saffron]

Again, was great in BF.... 4?, The several locations and elevations/hills could make it a true challenge when teamplay was actively deployed (with VC's) and I Game team and squad chat.

[vagrant saffron]

I was aware of that, tho one never knows if one has missed a non-released Aplha or Testing to been played in past, thus asked.

Played several Alpha and Alpha Community Test environment and loved them.
Being part of development has always done me and community great progress... Yes ofcouse also messed that up several times.
I am of opinion it was deminished by my twenty to thirty thousand hours of playtime on the BF Series.

[vital quail]

Bruh

Like a clone of tk

[vagrant saffron]

tk?

El Quote

[vagrant saffron]

Tried reading up on another day of BF Discord chat and reply to them, today I gave up on that...
After 2PM messages.

[hoary sentinel]

he's nothing like tk, he's better

[vagrant saffron]

Nope, I have collaborated with DICE and EA in the past.
Been in a EA and DICE affiliated community, Met DICE Sweden and USA Studio developers and management and EA (Community) Managers in real life @Gamescom Cologne 2016 in EA Community and Press Lounge.
Community I have been in for many years untill migration to Minecraft, the former visited DICE office in Sweden and hosted Battlefield Play4Free league.
A game which was based on Battlefield 2.
I myself participated in Contributing by forwarding the player base there opinions, feedback like ideas, corrective suggestions, wishes and many many more.
If I did not have had the disabilities I do... I might have had visited the DICE Sweden offices back in the days.
I played Shiege of Shanghai without color in Alpha stage, suggested and played Alpha Community Test Environment and several Alpha testing stages in the Seriesband mods (that where not publicly released) next to several Beta's with limited access.
If I could afford it and was without disabilities limiting me I would attempt to meet DICE and EA annually in the EA lounge like in 2016.

[pine roost]

Cool

[vagrant saffron]

Lookup my name in Discord and look at the messages, one could notice I got some experience with the amount of hours ingame.

[eager spire]

i mean he's just as obnoxious.

i still don't wanna see 'em.

[vagrant saffron]

Hope to Visit the EA community Lounge @ Gamescom again before 2031 as VIP/Press/Community member.

[hoary sentinel]

he's right there

[eager spire]

no he's not

i can't see 'em

[hoary sentinel]

thats my history of dealing with tk a lot playing in to how i feel about jimmyd so
he hasn't threatened me with legal action yet

[pine roost]

I wish you good luck in that case

[eager spire]

Fair enough. I just don't like 'em.

[vital quail]

Imagine a convo between them

The world may explode

After some brief research, there is another with 1500 hours

With somehow worse stats

[vagrant saffron]

My apoligies, as formerly mentioned...
I have been reading up on a day of Battlefield Chat.
Deu to this there are many followup messages during that.
I do this to support those with questions and thus may come across as spammy from time to time.
I share my history so folks can get to know me and the one whom I have been before real life REKT me and left me disabled before I partly and still recover from what life can trow at one.

I do this also because of and in relation to my planning...
Play more without long away from BF Series or at least gaming since I have planned to Multi Stream and do more with Social Media in the future.
For example to always stream my games and be on multi VC Softwares most of the time.

I (nearly) always try to improve upon my and others conduct to create and keep pleasant places for everyone.
I do discriminate since ethnicity should not interfere with impressions of folks for example joining VC's.
Example I prefer folks to refrain from expressions that are sensitive with relation to ethnicities and other.
If it might provoke or trigger I ask to avoid it or listen and wait for the response of others and ask them politely to make other communication choices wit refrain choice as a goal benefitting those who prefer to Litse to other.

Myself, I can take a whole lotta hits but simply step up for general VC experience.
As I am working on that part of myself I noticed I need to listen more before stepping in to create a more open and generally welcoming environment for even those whom don't mind strong language.
Ofcourse along while informing them with generally desired conduct resulting in requests to use strong vocabulary related expressions leading to welcoming responses in regards to and result of folks preferences.

[vagrant saffron]

That made me chuckle! 😊....
Is there someone with stats worse then me?
I know of the existence but have not noticed someone like that for a long time while not being physically disabled like a member of a community I have invested a lot of time in back in the days.

That person played BF with his feet and one arm with us and wasn't too bad after some tips and practice.
[I think it is safe to share this since I think it has been over a decade ago and the community has moved on to Minecraft as primair game]

[wise heath]

Maybe Dutch guy that doesn’t know English?

[vital quail]

When we gonna get news on Halloween event

Need that fr

[wise heath]

are you guys going trick or treating

[vagrant saffron]

I have been Away from gaming since short after release of Battlefield 2042 with prior having played Beta on a GTX980 and Intel 990x 6 core and 24GB RAM...
All this resulted in me ramping up those 1500 hours in 8 to ten months total.
In my period not playing there have been -fairly short- exceptions in which I played some BF.
Mostly have been playing 2042 on my Phone (connected to TV) during those periods.

Up to 3, 400 hours have been on a proper system WITH a 3700x CPU bottlenecking GPU A Rtx3090.

Somewhere in next 3 months I expect to be playing on my Main Gaming Rig again after the currently being upgraded 5850x3D CPU... I hope for great FPS performance in HD. 99%FPS above 144 and up at all times.

[vagrant saffron]

NL so no not out here.

Anyone else?

[vagrant saffron]

My English is ok is it not?
Did I miss something?

[desert condor]

@iron_73 im waiting for you

[vagrant saffron]

Please explain (in private DM) hwat you do not like about me.
I want to improve upon it.

[vagrant saffron]

Are ya'll gonna play?, if so may I join you?

[naive ember]

What are you on?

[vagrant saffron]

Oh, you mean what am I playing on right?
I am not playing yet untill invited for some battlefield (2042 preferred).
I currently have a laptop to play on, it has a i5-12450H and a a Rtx3060.

[wise heath]

What happened to sis lole

[wise heath]

Your English is good, it’s just you type too explanative

[vagrant saffron]

Thanks (..."for the tip" is what my brain also associated automatically due to my A.....).
A.....Unblanked available trough DM.

[wise heath]

Oki

[naive ember]

Yep

[vagrant saffron]

Playing now, in the future when upgrades completed and Rig received back from it...
I will be playing on RTX3090 and 5850x3D plus fastest 32GB RAM with two times 2TB M.2 PCI SSD.

The current system is a HP Victus 14" 144Hz laptop, due to low specs it never gets up to 144FPS while spawned...
Even have to run VC on seperate phone to keep FPS up to comfortable count.

[vagrant saffron]

It is and was autocorrect that keeps messing with my writing so yeah!... My android is a dumbass. 😜😎

[vagrant saffron]

Join us on some 2042. ☺️

[naive ember]

I'm a lone wolf

[snow shore]

if any one is looking for one more dm me

[fervent rose]

why speak many word when few do good

👍

[weak venture]

So I like sniping, but I have a problem that when I spot enemies, I hold down the key for too long and I pull myself out of the scope when the communication wheel comes up. The delay for that coming up is like half a second. Can I make that delay longer? Can I unbind that?

[pine roost]

No

Just force yourself to press it quicker and it’ll click eventually

[vital quail]

Just tap it a bunch

[fervent rose]

it is stupid that you cant separate the two

or they could tweak the timing of it a bit, its just wonky feeling

[vagrant saffron]

You can unbind the spotting button yes, not the response on duration to my knowledge.

[fervent rose]

he doesnt want to unbind spotting, he wants to unbind the comm wheel part, which he cant

its a combo bind, press for spot, hold for wheel

yeah being able to customize the hold timer would be

[vagrant saffron]

Ah, yeah would be nice to be able to set that and the length required to activate that, too bad #discord-server-feedback is no longer available!

[wise heath]

sad

I’m getting that EA client thing

have to restart the game twice to get it to work

now it takes two minutes to load in instead of 20 seconds

It’s so tempting to delete bf2042 to make space for however fückïng big bo6 is

[eager spire]

why not

[wise heath]

I like the fast respawns

Like that’s genuinely enough for me to like 2042 over any other battlefield game

[orchid tusk]

any on the planet?

this side of the moon?

[wise heath]

Haven’t played in two days, For 8 minutes I deal with that ea client shit, get exposure, spawn as medic and get that annoying ding, go to that guy and right before I slide to him he skips revive, then 10 seconds later another fucker does the same shit, go outside and get killed by hill humper, become recon to kill the hill humpers, do that for 3 minutes, get 16 kills and second place on the leaderboard, team cannot hold a flag for more than 10 seconds, then a jet seat warmer kills me twice in a row, get jet to deal with seat warmer and immediately get locked on

[vital quail]

Skill issue

[acoustic seal]

lobby sucks? quit and join another one ‼️

unless you're in NA, then wait 15 minutes for the shit lobby to be done ‼️

[eager spire]

If it sucks, hit da bricks!

Real winners quit!

If you don't wanna be there, just leave!

[tame crow]

you act like that would do something lol. the playerbase for this franchise and game especially is filled with braindead players.

[acoustic seal]

you just keep rerolling until it puts you on attack with enemies more braindead than your team

i love not having a server browser!!!!!!!!!!

[fervent rose]

you reroll until you have less recon players

[tame crow]

it is all the "its just a game" and "its casual" folks mixed with people are just braindead generally carrying over from irl

[fervent rose]

i'm cool with those people as long as they arent all camping with a sniper behind me

too many snipers = game is over

[tame crow]

"its just a game" and "its casual" are just cope for being a liability end of.

you got to at least put a bit of effort into everything you do in life. i am competitive even when playing something goofy like Monopoly with folks.

[acoustic seal]

whoops there's only one breakthrough lobby in NA and i don't want to play fucking breakaway so i guess i'm waiting for 20 minutes!!!!!!

[tame crow]

the best solution is you squad up

you take all of the weak mental and braindead players in your backpack to victory.

then you let the team know at the end that your squad hard carried them

[orchid tusk]

who's giving orders?

[eager spire]

i donno, whoever has the squad leader spot i guess

[tame crow]

the best man for the job

the friends i play with we all trust each other to handle to squad leader orders right

[wise heath]

recon hater? Sounds like skill issue

[eager spire]

this man? skull react him

Good morning EA

[vital quail]

Bruh I swear the helipad on exposure has like invisible ice or some shit

Twice now I've driven on it in the jeep and hovercraft and I just lose all control

[eager spire]

just brake bro. :P

[vital quail]

When I called the jeep in, it got damaged when dropping or something and was disabled. Still sped up like crazy

Just tested it with the hovercraft and I could accelerate a bit and go from one end to the other completely sideways

Ok jeep seemed fine, but hovercraft definitely feels off when on it

[vocal tusk]

Hovercraft is pretty drifty regardless of surface, so it may just be expected TBH

#discord-server-feedback message

[naive ember]

Guess I'll boost somewhere else

[hoary sentinel]

How many times do we have to tell you that it's because they have a role that allows them to post media

[remote kiln]

he knows

he doesn't care

[naive ember]

That pink was getting annoying anyway

[mossy wolf]

that would be soo cool but yeah #discord-server-feedback

[void gorge]

suggest the least? is the height of decadence

[hoary sentinel]

can you say that again, what im currently reading makes no sense

btw before you blame ea, it was always like this, only regulars (the purple role) get to send media

[void gorge]

And you think I didn't understand that? The question I asked is how he got this position because if only a few people can do it then it's not even worth interacting much here on the server

[hoary sentinel]

I'm certain you didn't understand that because we've told you in the past why they are able to post media, and how to get the role

[void gorge]

And in your opinion, is it "pleasant" that only some members have the advantage of sending media, for example? when in fact the logic of boosting a server is just for anyone to have privileges

[hoary sentinel]

Yes, it is pleasant. And now that boosting no longer provides the same benefit, it is even better.

[fervent rose]

if you cant interact without dumb links to pictures begone

[vocal tusk]

I got regular after being active in multiple channels for 3+ years

Probably helps that I don't randomly threaten legal action at the drop of a hat also 😂🤣

[void gorge]

You say you're “pleasant” because you're probably not interested in uploading media here or on other channels, but some members who would like to do that and don't have the role no doubt disagree with you.

[fickle wharf]

esl issue

[hoary sentinel]

And which rule would that be, Tad?

[vocal tusk]

Triggered

Probably the first time I've typed the word legal here lmao.

[hoary sentinel]

Certainly the first time you've mentioned legal action in reference to tk. Likely case is that he'll see that you aren't punished for doing nothing wrong and leave the server.

[naive ember]

Almost like perm^

[mighty holly]

he already noticed

fecker has a notifications turned on when those magic words pops out

Ah nvm the lad was already here my bad

[hoary sentinel]

you're good dw

[hoary sentinel]

It's a shame the clone isn't here today

Least obnoxious and pointless BF server argument:

[hoary sentinel]

we only serve the least obnoxious and pointless bf server arguments here

[silent perch]

anyone know of any other bf 2042 groups that are a little less bitchy? seems to be little useful info or help on here just people arguing. thanks

[arctic grove]

I need people to play this game with I feel like this game tries to pair me with the slowest teammates ever

[acoustic seal]

i mean what are you looking for? the game is really mechanically devoid compared to previous games outside of specialist abilities

and those are super one-note and basic

i could point you toward the jackfrags orbiters or something but that wouldn't be productive for you or the game/franchise

[fervent rose]

it's 3 years into the life cycle of the worst bf release of all time. but ask a question and people will still answer you with genuine answers

and if you want a more info heavy discord try symgg but you're not going to find sunshine and rainbows there

[void gorge]

basically this is the main server related to bf and probably other EA games and some also discuss games from other franchises

[still vault]

All current Battlefield games have been out for so long that most info is just a swift Google away. There's usually a lot more constructive content earlier in a game cycle. That being said, Answers HQ has lots of threads with advice that you can look through which might work

[silent perch]

tbh ive been googling my brains out, its a gameplay consistency issue.. idk if its system related, game related, engine related or what at this point.. was hoping someone out there experienced similar issues to mine and could help me troubleshoot said issue as ive already literally rebuilt my pc with all new parts but same shit.. not sure why but i just see people arguing or saying how dead/shit the game is in here lol its all good tho

[still vault]

They do do that. It's sad. Going online and focusing on the game you don't like is just kinda silly to me.

Some other people getting tired of the negativity echochamber started https://www.reddit.com/r/LowSodium2042/ - you can try giving that a go.

[eager spire]

The game gets the reputation it deserves.

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[silent perch]

thanks ill check it out.. yeh its kinda whack coming into a server just to complain about how bad the game is.. i really enjoy it tbf

[silent perch]

so top tier?

[fervent rose]

thats cool. for me it's been a rough 3 years as a bf fan that likes fps games with standard features like working mouse input

[eager spire]

have you not played another battlefield game?

if you haven't, that's great. it only gets so much better from here.

:)

[silent perch]

yes, all of them since bc2. idk why people compare them tho as they are different games..

[eager spire]

because they're all a part of the same franchise

and all of them have more functional mouse input than 2042 does.

[fervent rose]

the only one that ever had mouse problems as far as i remember was early bf3 days

[silent perch]

i have no mouse input issues..

[fervent rose]

you do, because we are playing the same game

it's engine level

been there since the technical alpha

[silent perch]

its not something ive noticed... i have a system latency issue if the stats bar TN is anything to go by.

[eager spire]

It's a matter of if you notice it. clearly, you do not.

doesn't mean it's not there.

It was only slightly mitigated, but it was never fixed.

[silent perch]

thats cool, but its no issue. idk why we are focusing on a non issue..

[fervent rose]

you're not locked in if you cant feel that

[eager spire]

i don't know why you're under the impression that mouse input not functioning correctly in a FPS game on PC is a non-issue.

[spare quest]

this u

[eager spire]

nah

[silent perch]

sounds like a skill issue guys.. im often top of the leader board with my dysfunctional mouse input lol

[spare quest]

Same

[eager spire]

so are several other really good players. they'll all tell you the same thing though, that the mouse input is dogshit.

[silent perch]

thats cool but istill never asked about mouse input haha

[eager spire]

and it's ridiculous that the game was released like this.

[fervent rose]

i'm always on the top of the leaderboard. it's still got mouse input issues. any good player will tell you the same thing

[eager spire]

I'm aware that you never asked.

but I feel it is worth mentioning.

[silent perch]

i mean.. its the same for everyone.. so its a non issue?

[fervent rose]

👎

[eager spire]

when something is broken for everyone, it is still an issue.

because it shouldn't have released broken in the first place.

[silent perch]

welcome to society and pro-nouns

[eager spire]

Any other studio does that, they'd be torn apart.

[eager spire]

????

did he fucking leave the server after saying that

[fervent rose]

i think, should i reinstall 2042 today? then i remember how bad the mouse feels

[hoary sentinel]

He did, lmao

[eager spire]

what the fuck was he even trying to say there

[hoary sentinel]

I actually have no idea

[fervent rose]

it was an EPIC MIC DROP moment for sure

that we can tell

[eager spire]

uh, yeah.

[abstract night]

@silent perch

[eager spire]

sure.

[abstract night]

Welcome to society and pronouns wtf lol

[eager spire]

yeah nah the guy's gone.

[hoary sentinel]

Yeah i really dont know what to say about that, good riddance i guess probably 2 messages away from saying some weirder shit

[fervent rose]

another classic discord crash out

[eager spire]

Guy's probably gonna show up on BF2043.

[hollow pewter]

Start up a team lol

[low cypress]

[tame crow]

🤡

mouse input an issue

bruh i can be top of the leaderboard and be raging about mouse input

[void gorge]

I don't know what you think, but if there's one thing that really discourages me in the game, it's when I blow up an enemy tank with an RPG, for example, but the names of several bots appear on my screen, including when I'm running around the map and I see that There's an enemy bot near me, I don't even waste time shooting at him because what interests me is combat against a real player

Join the club

[vital quail]

Turns out it was against AI all along

[acoustic seal]

does squid g even give a fuck about this game anymore?

looking at the gamemode rotation

[echo yew]

Prolly not

Idk there’s no servers

I tried to play but my first match was that horrible 12v12 gamemode and the second one put me in one with 6 tickets left so i just alt f4, i dont have patience today

Still a better experience than call of duty

so there’s that

[acoustic seal]

oh he checked out and just makes jackfrags-style 10 minute nothing videos

[echo yew]

Most youtubers are washed tf out tbf

[twin ledge]

How do you farm unlocks for the draugr? Tried on coop but feels like the strafe runs goes by too fast and there's also almost always a AA locking on

[vital quail]

Play it on exposure

There's no wildcats

Wait no spearhead

Only AA on spearhead is the ram but the range is so small it shouldn't ever impact anything

[twin ledge]

Spearhead doesn't have draugr

[vital quail]

???

It does

Unlesss they removed it since I got the unlocks for it

[twin ledge]

on coop?

[vital quail]

Yes solo against bots

[twin ledge]

I'll double check but I'm pretty sure it wasn't there

[vital quail]

Conquest?

[twin ledge]

yep

[twin ledge]

Ig they removed it then, no draugr on spearhead vs ai

[vital quail]

I rarely play 64cq anymore but did a match on caspian a few days ago and saw the mav wasn't there

So I guess they removed vehicles from some maps?

[twin ledge]

Any other map that doesn't have aa?

[vital quail]

Kaleidoscope does but also has a lot of buildings to fly behind

People that call in vehicles on the roof might actually be worse than recon players

Smooth brain behavior

[eager spire]

they're trying to recreate that bit from the trailer

where they drive a ATV into a helicopter and it explodes

[vital quail]

Yeah i don't think a mav is going to do anything other than immediately fall off with 0 jump

They had called it on the building with the helipad on kaleidoscope and got it stuck up there

[eager spire]

the BF community are not smart.

[naive ember]

We r da smartist

[eager spire]

You not boosting the server anymore, Toxic?

[naive ember]

No point

I used to post chat content in here

[lone solstice]

so im getting ribbons constantly but the unlock blasco skin still says 0/80

is it broken or something

[vital quail]

People were saying it doesn't count in shutdown

Or whatever the gamemode currently is

[lone solstice]

i thought it only counts in that one

weird

which is normally the most played mode

[vital quail]

Usually is double in the selected gamemode

But bugged rn

[dapper river]

2042? More like Twenty Smelly-Poos!

[acoustic seal]

20-42 fps

20-42 players online

[fervent rose]

20-42 percent complete on release

[acoustic seal]

20-42 percent complete after 3 years

[wicked marsh]

I t1 it before we had any proper counter measures, spearhead sucks cuz it’s just a straight line, I prefer kaleidoscope a lot more

[fervent rose]

22% in 3 years POGGERS

[worthy solstice]

anyone even banning cheaters? the guy about 2 week cheating non stop at Portal 1000% hardcore match and still not banned. even now he is online and cheating!

BettrLuckNxtYr

[acoustic seal]

ok but why are you playing 10000000000% hardcore

[eager spire]

I think those people are the only people left playing Portal

I guess it's either that or 128 player Rush

[worthy solstice]

I'm trying to Tier 1 pistols and aircraft, and I prefer these types of servers, just like I did in BF4, where I only played on hardcore servers.

[acoustic seal]

damn, i hope you find the courage to play the real game soon

does the avg 2042 player not understand the breakout mode?

You get into the zone, and then you see all these players on your team sitting outside the zone just trying to snipe/kill...makes no sense to me. The game is about numbers, get into the zone. Such a wasted mode.

Good morning EA

If i was EA i would respond with good morning mr 240p

Is it just me or is the game really flopped? I connected to the VPN on a European server because I usually find matches to be quick and crowded, but match 128 didn't have more than around 30 players on each side

[naive ember]

It's EU that flopped bud not the game

The mighty NA says hi

[mental delta]

EU is usually the most populated area for servers in case you don't know

[naive ember]

Wrong

[mental delta]

Nuh huh

[void gorge]

What do you mean "eu" failed?

[naive ember]

What do you mean the game flopped?

It's clearly a EU issue right? You even mentioned EU

[mental delta]

Game didn't work welll it's a fact

Launch was terrible

It surprisingly regrew a pretty decently important playerbase over seasons

But it still failed at launch

[naive ember]

Dude why are you going all the way back to launch

I want tk to respond

He's talking about the current state of the game and you wanna talk about the launch

[mental delta]

Because launch and current state are linked ?

If game didn't fail at launch we would have already gotten a new BF game or BF2042 would still get supported for content

Game would likely have twice the number of new maps if it didn't fail at launch

Almost everything depends on what happens at launch

[naive ember]

Who said they stopped supporting this game for content cause the launch failed? Twice the number of maps is a huge exaggeration bud

[void gorge]

I agree with you although after the launch and gradually the game lost 90% of its players and then started to grow again because dice fixed a lot of bugs but still unfortunately this game is tarnished by its disastrous launch it even had, if I'm not mistaken, 8 seasons but you see that not even with the return of the classes to the game, the majority returned and also another factor that contributed greatly to the colossal failure of this bomb is the horrible maps in design like the hourglass for example that recently dice redid the map but in my opinion it was worse than it already was due to the fact that some flags were very close

[naive ember]

Where's the proof that 90% of the players left?

[mental delta]

Huh idk I guess it's common sense ?
If game worked better we would have definitely gotten more content and moreover they wouldn't have had to waste time reworking all the base maps so we can confidently say if game launched correctly we would have probably gotten at least 2 maps a season and therefore twice the number of maps by now

It's just pretty basic common sense

[naive ember]

Just french crab sense bud clearly

If this and that happened yeah yeah yeah

[mental delta]

This game had terrible launch because it was a terrible game : it lacked content, maps were atrociously bad and servers could clearly not handle 128 players

Game was a huge miss and Dice is all responsible for it

[naive ember]

So since EU is having population problems what does that have to do with the game? Cause here in NA we don't have population issues

Launch this launch that it just doesn't answer anything

[mental delta]

It's not if this and that happened it's just using your brain at minimum capabilities, the fact game launched in a terrible state and had a pretty fucking low playerbase after only 1.5 month literally impacted the post-launch support

Why do you think it took them literally 6 months to make the first content drop with only 1 map and 2 guns ?

[naive ember]

Talk about side tracking from the original conversation

Anything negative that happens in this game is because of the launch apparently

[mental delta]

We don't have population problems he just struggled finding a game which can happen on a Wednesday mid-day as the game doesn't have a massive playerbase

[naive ember]

[mental delta]

Overall EU is the biggest region in terms of players for BF2042 if I ain't wrong

[mental delta]

Well kinda

If game launched in a better state we wouldn't even still be playing this crap of a game as of now so...

[vocal tusk]

Games player peak was at season 6, the week after a free trial period ended. So clearly the players left after launch. /s

[sullen violet]

So you know?

[void gorge]

due to the fact that until a while ago the game still had an average of at least 20k players on steamdb and nowadays it doesn't even get 10k and if you think I'm pulling these statistics out of my ass, just look up the game's statistics a while ago on google

[void gorge]

But you know that apparently dice isn't so much to blame because EA is in charge of dice, right? and what I find most "curious" is that before 2042 was released, if I'm not mistaken, they said that EA said the game would be a "love letter to the fans"

[vocal tusk]

I rarely see people blame EA for the issues with 2042. And those that do are usually corrected to blame DICE.

The only people who say this are people like you, who are trying to make some weird point

[glass imp]

wrong tk, Portal was described as a “love letter to the fans”

[naive ember]

This is the way

[vocal tusk]

You also are mistaken, it was Portal which was described as being a "love letter to fans", as (If rumors are to be believed) portal was meant to be heavily expanded upon

It unfortunately wasnt (Content wise) likely because of the messy state of the rest of the game.

Ripple Effect (outside of making Flashpoint), seemed to have been moved on to the next BF game pretty early after the release of 2042. Tho its hard to tell if this is true of not. Mostly a theory of mine, since they werent heavily credited on post launch content

[sullen violet]

240p in 2024 😜

Top tier

[naive ember]

Its discord that did that

[sullen violet]

Seen some of your clips, top gameplay ngl

[void gorge]

Ah.. then I probably made a mistake

[mental delta]

By Dice I meant EA as well as they're the publisher

[mental delta]

I think they were planning on adding more maps to Portal yes as well as some guns which we got

The guns we got to Portal were probably some guns that were almost done but weren't added at launch because they lacked time

So they added those after

[vocal tusk]

TBH, it made sense that they didnt. Yes it sucked as a player, but if RE being moved on early to the next game/s improves their quality/content...it will have been worth it

Post launch it was basically an impossible task to redeem 2042. While the devs did a great job in fixing issues from launch...this game was never going to be the success it needed to be for long term support.

[naive ember]

You usually do bud

[arctic grove]

How do I change region, I can't find any games so I think my default region Africa or something

[vocal tusk]

You cant

VPN allows it, but outside of the portal server browser (modes youll find there are quite limited) there is no way to pick the region

Might be worth looking at the Portal browser regardless tho 😄

[arctic grove]

Maby

Did the older battlefields have a region select

I swear that should be a thing

[vocal tusk]

Older games didnt really have region selection, but they did have server browser for custom (Player hosted), or official DICE servers and game modes. So finding a game wasnt difficult outside your region

[next onyx]

I know for a fact there were internal bad co 2 map code names in the portal tab.

[arctic grove]

Ya cause I recently bought the game and all I find is empty lobbies, really hope checking out portal is helpful

[next onyx]

Err like

In the files

[vocal tusk]

If you have a VPN, you can set it to the EU or East/West Cost US (Depending on time of day) and it will place you in those servers. thats the only other reasonable thing that may help you

[arctic grove]

Can you setup a VPN with ps4, maby I'll have to try that

[hushed lark]

it's too bad control is gone again

[vocal tusk]

Ah, PS4. I think you can...but I am not 100% sure TBH. Its much more difficult that doing so on PC, where I mostly play

[chilly jacinth]

You need to connect your PS4 with something that can use a VPN

and share connection that way

[vivid rune]

Why would you need a VPN for a game?

[chilly jacinth]

To change server regions

[naive ember]

NA players who are the best don't have to worry about changing regions

[hoary sentinel]

shucks

[acoustic seal]

changing region out of NA because it's deaddddddddddddd as hell

[hoary sentinel]

the message i wanted to send got automodded anyway he's got a history of ea hate

[acoustic seal]

this is a crazy thing to read lol, people constantly run defense for dice when they haven't done anything positive since bf1 over 8 years ago

every negative thing gets attributed to EA and its so transparent

[naive ember]

EA is King

[void gorge]

I want to make one thing very clear, we are not friends but just members of the same server

[vocal tusk]

In my last 3 years here, I only irregularly see people blame EA for the flaws of 2042. Maybe I am filtering it out of something tho haha

[naive ember]

Who said we are friends?

[vocal tusk]

Pressure from EA to deliver a more trend setting experience/game cant entirely be discounted as possible cause, but a studio as experienced as DICE shouldnt have had the issues seen with 2042 at launch.

[vocal tusk]

me

[naive ember]

Well I am friends with everyone in here especially you, playing 2042 all day together and exchanging dms all day

[void gorge]

Previously in your response to my message you used the word "bud" and the translator translated it as "friend" and frankly I don't need someone who calls me "bud" but says it's always my fault

[naive ember]

Didn't mean to hurt your feelings pal

[remote kiln]

you have a second option, join a host in another region, setting up a VPN on console is extremely tedious and rather arduous, just use lfg to find players in the eu

[mental delta]

Not the hero we deserve but definitely the one we need

[stone cradle]

Wish more portal server were like this instead of dumb xp farms and bland hardcore "MILSIM!!" ones

[void gorge]

This video is clearly from portal mode, right?

[mental delta]

Yes it is

[arctic grove]

That's so weird that that works like that, like why can I join someone from another region on my friends list but I can't just search for that regions lobbies, I swear battlefield 1 etc weren't like this, I swear I remeber playing on EU region games when the sa servers where not full

[remote kiln]

the reason is because 2042 is geolocked

[arctic grove]

Is there a good reason for it being geolocked or was it personal choice of the devs, I can't see why that would benifit the game

[remote kiln]

no idea I don't work for dice, could be for any number of reasons, matches having high latency from players from other regions etc

[naive ember]

This is the only game that does that though

[arctic grove]

That's what I'm so confused about, like Doesent that geolocking system just completely prevent low activity regions from playing the game, and its not like they don't want different regions from playing with each other because you can apparently join friends in other regions, like why would they do this

[naive ember]

Yea OCE players don't have a population apparently. Most of them don't even come in here anymore

[lean tundra]

Is bf2042 worth it on ps5

With current player base and player count

[arctic grove]

It completely just depends on your region, I just bought the game the other day but can't play normally because there's no way to change regions, and my region has very little players

[arctic grove]

Ya idk why they would do this

[lean tundra]

I am eu

[foggy lion]

should be good then

[acoustic seal]

joining friends is an explicit choice to play on shit ping, matchmaking should not put you on shit ping by default because no experience is better than a bad experience

[arctic grove]

I mean I live in South Africa so I'm use to playing on EU servers for games that don't have south African servers, I would rather play on ping then be unable to play at all

[timid ember]

anyone been running into MAAADDDDD in redacted every time you get redacted

[short bison]

are you talking about those 2 pc players that type in chat nonstop " easy " and show up every single Redacted round ?

[timid ember]

yea its super annoying like they are obviously cheating and havent been banned

thanks dice

[grand jackal]

could anyone please help me, how do i get the AK5C? I need 10 kills with underbarrel shotguns, what is that?

[minor stream]

Some weapons have a shotgun attachment that is attached as an under barrel thing like a under barrel grenade launcher. Sometimes called “Masterkey.”

[grand jackal]

is that something i have to unlock as well

[minor stream]

Idk off the top of my head my man, I’ll assume you are busy working or something preventing you from going into the menus and checking yourself? Most guns you have to unlock everything even a red dot sight will require 10 kills or something

[grand jackal]

okay

[minor stream]

Did you try EA Support and see if they can have your account get assigned to another region

They may not have that ability but might be worth a shot

[arctic grove]

Never thought about doing that, maby I'll give it a try

[minor stream]

I haven’t looked at Portal so idk what is available in there, you have access to all regions & servers in Portal right?

I’m just asking for curiosity I guess I can check later whenever I play, probably nothing too good on there heh

[twin ledge]

Are people like allergic to spawning on me when I got a heli? I swear every single time I get a attack heli my squadmates just ignore it like it's the plague

[arctic grove]

I haven't gotten to check it either, I'm gonna check later and see if I can join some servers

[vital quail]

I personally never really do it because i can be much more useful on the ground

[chilly jacinth]

Sitting in a heli is basically a point and click adventure

Makes me fall asleep

[foggy lion]

i agree

[minor stream]

I was trying to T1 both Condor and Hind cause I play Breakthrough and then low and behold

[void gorge]

Will EA no longer solve the game's problems? because there is a bug in clyamore, for example when you put it on a step of the stairs it sometimes ends up under the step and you can no longer pick it up or earlier today I was playing and I placed the bomb on a step of the stairs I saw that the enemy passed over it and didn't explode and this discourages playing

[vital quail]

.

[pine roost]

they are still fixing bugs, submit a bug report

[void gorge]

send report where? I ask this because a while ago, for example, I reported a problem in the live chat on the EA website and until today they haven't fixed it

[hollow pewter]

Battle field 4 was better

[naive ember]

There isn't any problems with the game bud

[heady island]

lockerfield 4

[hollow pewter]

@heady island Lol

[pine roost]

Live chat is not the place, go to the forum

Live chat will just get you with some generic ea support team, they aren’t devs

[near silo]

Hmmmm

[naive ember]

Someone just told me there's over 100k players on right now

[hoary sentinel]

he doesn't know, chat

[acoustic seal]

you really think someone would do that? just go on the internet and tell lies?

[simple vapor]

hey everyone, anyone experiencing crashing with the new nvidia driver 566.03?

[minor stream]

No just my brain crashing watching LA_BaLLr go 10-0 in the tank shooting from spawn in breakthrough right now

We lost

[acoustic seal]

infantry breakthrough is on rotation, you don't have to suffer (for a week)

[vital quail]

Crazy to load into a close match late and have the audacity to select recon

Knowingly providing negative value to the team

Could never be me

[viral mica]

I can't stand sniping in this game when you've got a team that just sits back and wants to play sniping simulator. No one plays objectives.

makes me feel guilty to even play the class.

[abstract mountain]

why does my gun just do absolutely no damage all of a sudden? I went from only needing to hit like 4 or 5 shots on someone to hitting over 15 consecutive shots without killing them. But every time I get shot I get hit by 2 bullets and keel over. I've been using the same gun this whole time what the fuck happened?

the more I play this game the more I realize how much better even the worst CoD games are to this pile of disfunctional dogshit

[viral mica]

is it desync?

[abstract mountain]

it has to be major desynch, but I have a really good PC, and gigabit internet, so the game is just exclusively doing it to me and no one else in the game

if that's the case*

[acoustic seal]

i've been getting questionable hitreg all night so idk they probably downgraded the servers again

[abstract mountain]

I mean this shit isn't even playable like this I stand absolutely 0 chance in a fight against anyone that shoots back so I'm just done playing this game I guess

[acoustic seal]

still drop a 6kd redacted and get called a cheater lol

[viral mica]

can we even select region in 2042 on pc?

[mental finch]

with a VPN

[viral mica]

rofl

[mental finch]

God man, the amount of things I'd actually do for this game to a have a server browser

At this point, it's my main issue with the game

Map rotation in this game is the worst thing of all time

I never want to play on Exposure again because of how many times I've done so in the past 2 days

Not to mention when you get past like 11:00 and then you just can't find a full game unless you're willing to patiently wait for 30 minutes

[void gorge]

At the moment I cannot access the forum due to an event a while ago in which I was extremely harmed and as I had no support from the company, the situation will have to be resolved in another way

[mental finch]

Just love that they didn't put a Server browser in this game, such a good decision, really just makes me happy

[vital quail]

Mrw i get banned

[eager spire]

@pine roost lemme translate what tk said in Not Bullshit: "I harassed a moderator on the forum and got banned from it."

"I was extremely harmed" motherfucker you got banned from a forum, grow up

[mental finch]

The wording there sorta blows my mind and Idek why

[eager spire]

Because he's trying to cover up the fact that he was banned while also trying to make it seem like he was wronged in doing so.

[mental finch]

Feels like it's written by an alien trying to be a human

[fickle wharf]

esl moment

[eager spire]

I think tk talks through a translator. didn't stop him from catching a ban on BFEE as well.

[mental finch]

Oh well, my b on that

[eager spire]

don't worry about it he's a prick anyway.

[strange tiger]

play games in HK's servers like playing in hell, there are a lot of hackers

hardcore mode

[eager spire]

are you sure there are hackers?

Because i can't imagine you'd be able to really tell in hardcore.

[mental finch]

They might just be Sweaties

Well, it's hardcore, they are sweaties

But they may not be hackers

[strange tiger]

yeah, maybe they're just battlefield masters

[viral mica]

isnt there one in the customs browser?

I actually hate server browsers

i dont like player hosted servers. I always want vanilla developer hosted servers

I can't stand people's "rules".

Jarvis, post a embed fail gif

[mental finch]

BFV had a server browser that only had EA servers

And life was good, because you could always find a game (still can to this day, same with BF1, 4, and 3 if you can get the thing to work)

I miss when there was player owned servers, but hey, I was fine with just having a browser

[mental finch]

Yes, but tell me how that lets me browse servers to play the actual game

Kinda wild that people are still saying "but there's a browser for portal" 3 years into the game, when Portal is all but completely dead

Also, there were always plenty of vanilla servers with no custom rules in the player owned server days

[tame crow]

i can't believe people still say this....

Portal is not a proper server browser

[naive ember]

Good morning EA, Had a great time on 2042 last night

[naive ember]

Good morning my friend

[pine roost]

Not surprised

[fringe spire]

How so

Genuine question, I barely interact with Portal

[tame crow]

BRUH

BRUH

can someone else answer it i just dont have the patience anymore with these people.....

[fringe spire]

[pine roost]

Portal only lets you browse custom games, not official servers. So you'll find anything from 1000% damage hardcore servers to 200% hardcore servers

No official, basic servers unless someone sets one up in such a way

[vital quail]

Bruh, finished a 128 cq with more objectives capped than 2nd thru 8th place combined

[mental finch]

It's what thank you said, Portal servers are custom games, it is mostly hardcore, but it's almost never vanilla. It's also not a traditional server set up, they don't stay around forever, you can play on a server and then its gone in the next few hours until the host sets it up again.

Also, it's not very active

There's always a few servers up that I see, but they're almost never full, and the ones closest to full are always hardcore

[fringe spire]

Ahhh so people would like a server browser to join specific games of say, vanilla Conq128 ?

So they can choose their map essentially

[mental finch]

Yes

And being able to choose a server based on ping would be very nice

[fringe spire]

Hmm

Okay I didn't see it this way, that makes sense

[fringe spire]

Tbh the rankings can lose a lot of meaning sometimes

I've been ranked top 10 for sniping from spawn in kaleidoscope despite contributing a lot less to the people around me

[pine roost]

Yes. being able to join a filled lobby in a map and mode you want in less than 15 seconds is 100x better than constantly queuing and requeuing just to get into a map you actually like for 5 minutes

[mental finch]

Yeah, joining filled lobbies is a big aspect of it

You never have the "I can't find a full game" issue when you've got a server browser

[pine roost]

unless they spoof the playercounts

[mental finch]

lol, BF3

4 too, but 3 was really bad

In a perfect world, we'd have committed DICE owned servers for people who don't wanna deal with any of the fucky shit, and player owned servers for us greasy mongrels who want to play Redacted 24/7 until the end of time

God, you know there'd be a Stadium and Redacted 24/7 server, and it would be so awful, I'd love it

[vital quail]

Boring af

[mental delta]

I bet you enjoy Metro a lot lol

[vital quail]

None of those maps are appealing to me

[pine roost]

redacted I can have fun in but stadium is the most boring thing

in all honesty though there aren't any maps I actually get excited to load into

[vital quail]

I stopped playing 64cq because of how often portal maps came up

Any 2042 map i would rather play

[mental finch]

Wow, so you don't even like the big Bf3 maps?

I love Noshar and Caspian

[vital quail]

Noshar has a huge balance issue for conquest

US side has a much easier time getting 4/5 flags before ru can even get 1

[mental finch]

That is fair

[vital quail]

And the boats they have aren't terrible
