atomic sluice

pulled out the complex reddit fixes

#

reset cpu and gpu overclocks

#

turned off xmp

#

reinstalled the game

#

repaired the files

#

it just doesnt work

chilly jacinth
#

Sounds like your EA launcher install is broken

atomic sluice
#

how do i fix it

#

boutta talk to their ea support lmfao

#

mabye it doesnt work because i went outside earlier

chilly jacinth
#

Probably

atomic sluice
#

vocal tusk
#

Did you uninstall and reinstall eaplay?

atomic sluice
#

reddit lowkey cooked fr

#

tech support the only thing its good for

#

nvm cant even post

#

because of low karma

chilly jacinth
#

Tech support is about the only thing it's good for

atomic sluice
#

not when you cant even post

chilly jacinth
#

Just google your issue and you'll find a post about it

#

no need to post anything

atomic sluice
#

alr did

#

none of their fixes work

vocal tusk
#

Did you reinstall ea play tho?

atomic sluice
#

i just did

#

i tried the app recovery thing earlier

#

trying to launch it now

chilly jacinth
#

I know i had to nuke every file related to the EA app

#

then restart pc

#

then reinstall again

atomic sluice
#

mopr

#

doesnt work

#

still get the error

vocal tusk
#

What is the error

atomic sluice
#

cant send screenshots

vocal tusk
#

Explain it with words

atomic sluice
#

it just says directx function and a ton of random shit after

hearty kiln
#

So weird being a console pleb and seeing all the extra stuff pc has to go through. I felt overwhelmed at trying to upgrade/troubleshoot my pc then just let it get old and obsolete. 😅

vocal tusk
#

Then it's your gpu driver crashing, and not the game.

Did you do a full driver reinstall in safe mode?

How long time is there between ban waves? Seen this one hacker now 3 times inside +3 months?

#

Use ddu and remove the driver properly in safe mode

#

Then reinstall it

void gorge
chilly jacinth
#

Doesn't the degraded Intel cpus also cause gpu driver crashes?

hearty kiln
atomic sluice
#

makes no sense

vocal tusk
#

Generally speaking, and from my experience...issues like this are not common.

hearty kiln
#

Agree

atomic sluice
#

i shouldnt have to spend hours troubleshooting just to play the game i paid for

hearty kiln
#

Although my ps5 has been shutting off lately while playing, think I need to change the outlet.

atomic sluice
#

might just buy a damn console

its been working for me with no problems until today

thorny spire
#

We've noticed your computer is currently offline. To activate your game on the computer using your EA Account. You'll need to connect the internet

#

Getting this error. Need help badly

hoary sentinel
#

Take it to the help website CursedCat

atomic sluice
#

ea is a very small indie studio fr

mental finch
#

Apparently this is an issue with the EA launcher

atomic sluice
#

fuck the ea launcher bro

#

its so bad

thorny spire
#

any alternate?

#

i just want to play game. this is 2nd day i am trying to fix this

void gorge
# thorny spire any alternate?

There is an application called origin but probably no one uses it even though until a while ago it was the official application for you to download games from this company

atomic sluice
#

origin was good

thorny spire
#

Please help me with this.

mental finch
# thorny spire any alternate?

So I was looking back at our convo earlier, you said you set yourself to invisible and then turned online back on, you should actually set yourself offline, not invisible, and then set it back to online.

#

If that doesn't work, I don't know if there's much we can help with

thorny spire
mental finch
#

and you linked the accounts right?

thorny spire
#

yeah

#

i can anydesk if u want

atomic sluice
#

2042 tries to work challenge

tawny carbon
atomic sluice
#

better than what we have now

mental finch
#

Idk, Origin was still pretty bad

tawny carbon
mental finch
#

UI was dogshit

atomic sluice
#

for me atleast

#

i cant even play my 60 dollar game

tawny carbon
#

Ea app works as well

thorny spire
mental finch
#

I still had fuck ass EA issues with origin, I'm pretty sure I was still using Origin when 2042 dropped

atomic sluice
#

this actaully has me pissed

mental finch
#

Yeah man I truly don't know, I'd honestly recommend going on EA's support forums, or maybe trying their troubleshooter

atomic sluice
#

reinstalling again

atomic sluice
#

time to wait another hour for the game to install

mental finch
thorny spire
#

took me 5 hours to install

tawny carbon
atomic sluice
#

i love how the 60 dollar game backed by a billion dollar company takes hours of troubleshooting to even play but a game made by a single person works just fine lmao

tawny carbon
tawny carbon
#

Dice is owned by EA

vital quail
#

I mean for 99% of people the game works completely fine

mental finch
#

Maybe not all of Steam's financial practices

#

But the app is fine

atomic sluice
tawny carbon
#

What’s the difference

atomic sluice
mental finch
vital quail
#

I mean i guess I could say 99.99 repeating of course

atomic sluice
#

but thats a lie

#

cuz this game doesnt work for a lot of people

tawny carbon

#

i just want to play the game bro why is it this hard

#

everywhere i look it just says the same things ive already done

tawny carbon
#

You can always play another game GenChatDrama

atomic sluice
#

mabye i need to update windows again even though i updated it last night

atomic sluice
tawny carbon
#

Ok. Thats your money. Not mine or someone else’s hard work money.

zealous loom
#

Did you ever fix it? This guy is having same issue

atomic sluice
#

if i pay for sokmething i wanna be able to use it and i think thats reasonable

tawny carbon
#

You paid for it. Nobody forced you to pay to play the game

mental finch
atomic sluice
#

if i buy myself a new phone

#

and it arrives at my house defective

#

i chose to pay for it so its my fault

tawny carbon
#

Huh?

#

Your comparing a phone to a digital game

atomic sluice
#

im boutta do the new update or whatever on windows

tawny carbon
#

Physical device to a game?

atomic sluice
#

no idea how theres already 2 new ones since last night at 12am

Hardware vs software frogconcern

atomic sluice

if i order a graphics card and it doesnt work im liable because i chose to buy it

#

what is steam on rn bro

uneven ibexBOT
tawny carbon
atomic sluice
#

yeah bf4 sold

#

bf4 is great now though

mental finch
atomic sluice
#

cyberpunk launch was the worst

#

its a really good game now though

tawny carbon
#

I was on console to

atomic sluice
#

my favorite rpg

mental finch
#

It was still not great mind you

tawny carbon
#

I played BF4 on launch

mental finch
#

But I could play the game

#

Same

#

On 360

tawny carbon
#

360/ps3

atomic sluice
#

on cyberpunks launch i was getting flung and shit it was crazy

tawny carbon
tawny carbon
atomic sluice
#

cyberpunk is great

mental finch
#

I could definitely play BF4 at launch on 360 a lot easier than I could play 2042 at launch, but I won't argue if you had a different experience. By the Xbox One came out I had basically no issues. I honestly had more bugs in BF3 than I did with 4.

atomic sluice
#

i love cyberpunk

spare quest
tawny carbon
#

BF4 got sued for its launch

mental finch
#

I do remember that

tawny carbon
#

And false promises

#

It was bad

mental finch
#

I remember just thinking it was a PC problem cause I didn't really run into that many issues

#

But I do remember the drama

tawny carbon
#

BF4 redeemed themselves yet. It took them a while to fix the game in general.

mental finch
#

I just feel like the game itself was better than 2042, though it had plenty issues

tawny carbon
#

BF4 WR devs, said they had to fix up BF4 before they made the client for it. frogconcern they said it was a big mean mess to fix

mental finch
#

I do know that some things in BF4 were actually never fixed

#

Like the sound issue, to this day when I start that game on PC, it's like a 50/50 chance of me restarting it because I have no sound lmao

#

Like wow I remember people complaining about that at launch, and I didn't even get the PC version till like 2017, so that's wild lmao

tawny carbon
mental finch
#

My biggest thing is the Maps

tawny carbon
mental finch
#

I don't think that 2042 had a single good map at lunch

tawny carbon
#

It was based around hazard zone and 128p

mental finch
tawny carbon
#

The game was also rushed under 2 years development keanu

mental finch
#

It was a bit after BFV came out, I decided to get BF4 on PC since I hadn't played it since I lost my Xbox One (long story)

tawny carbon
#

I went and bought BF4 on pc due to BFV first major TTK nerf. Never played BFV since

mental finch
#

Jesus Christ man, some people are excited about the fact that 4 studios are working on the new battlefield.... and I'm just like.... oh no, not again

#

Please just let people work on a single game instead of splitting the team having a bunch of random dudes come and fill in

mental finch
#

Cause that's what they do, and with the frost bite engine... it sucks ass, cause unless you're super well trained on how to use it, it's awful

mental finch
# naive ember Random dudes?

Random Highly trained programmers who are being overworked and thrown into an environment where they don't have all the knowledge required to do the best job

tawny carbon
#

It’s nothing new tbh

mental finch
#

Again, it's the specifics of EA's practices

#

They strip the teams and bring in other people to fill the spots, who aren't trained on Frostbite

#

So, with this, a lot of game development is spent teaching some of the devs how to program on a notoriously hellish engine

naive ember
tawny carbon
#

They did the same for 343 halo games. Hired contractors to help out. By the time they learn the engine. Their contract was over

mental finch
#

Look it up

#

Or just keeping defending EA

naive ember
mental finch
#

Kiss that leather bro

naive ember
#

You're hating on EA hard for no reason

#

You don't know what goes on at all

#

Unless you been there

mental finch
#

you're funny bro

tawny carbon
#

Atleast it’s not worse than Rockstar CursedCat

mental finch
#

Oh god

tawny carbon
#

That’s a fax

mental finch
#

Idk man, I'd say they're one in the same on that

tawny carbon
#

Rockstar is very toxic.

#

EA is small compared to rockstar

naive ember
#

Of course it is, R* is a nyc based company

mental finch
#

If you overwork your workers on a crunch to increase your bottom line, you're horrible

tawny carbon
tawny carbon
naive ember
#

I bet

tawny carbon
#

So many issues happening in GTA 6 development since Covid and pre Covid

#

FiveM. 🤔 very bad. FiveM creator hates Rockstar with a passion.

#

EA is bad but not bad compared to activision, and especially rockstar.

Tbh, anticheat isn’t simple as plug and play. You have to work it in your game. But any decade old game or old games than the recent ones. It’s already vulnerable to it anyways.

tawny carbon

Every online cheater. Should be in jail cutie_tea

#

Unless your are cheating to cheat against the cheater for positive reasons

severe hill
#

Even drake

copper acorn
#

Some cheats change the source code of a game, some not

severe hill
#

I still can't be leave that cheating in a game is a lawful ruling

#

I get microtransactions and pirating, but the court ruling off cheaters.

tawny carbon

But what about devs that give players admin cheats like Battlfront 2

So yall saying mouse is a big advantage?

atomic sluice
copper acorn
atomic sluice
#

you get way more performance if its good plus better controls

severe hill
#

To solve this. Cross console play, PC can stay segregated. Cross console should mean no aim assist.

leaden lava
#

Tbh pc players should be required to use a controller to make it a fair play

severe hill
atomic sluice
#

You can use keyboard and mouse on console if it's really that bad

copper acorn
#

Yeah right

leaden lava
# atomic sluice No??

Using mapped buttons and litterly a whole free hand to aim is not clean play, shit I feel mouse is legal cheating 😂

the game got a lot of hate

tawny carbon
#

At the start. Not much anymore tbh

gentle stirrup
#

and why is it that EA makes a game and updates it for some months and then completely abandons it

tawny carbon
#

Atleast. Not as bad. Unless you’re a person that complains about the game cuz it’s EA. But you paid money for it. So what’s the point of hating when you support them with your money.

vital quail

They had seasons for 2.5 years

but thats not the point

I mean shit, I've got a horrible KD, but I play Medic and support well, and I play the objective. Granted, I don't have 1400 hrs of playtime, but still lol.

tawny carbon
#

Live service don’t last for years. Overtime people chase different games to play. Thats why they are making a new battlefield game.

#

I should say, one of the reasons why.

naive ember
#

2042 will never die

#

NEVER!

#

EA said so

#

Ok

weak vector
#

And Overwatch. And Fortnite

#

And if people still play Apex Legends...that too

mental finch
#

I still see more negative stuff than I see positive

weak vector
#

I personally prefer another new Battlefield game this time, and if they're learned their lessons (which I doubt), it could succeed well enough that live service might work

If we have the same problems come launch I think I’ll just dip

I do too I think

Can’t be asked to spend another year in a dire state begging for simple changes again

Press once for Crate, again to swap to pouch...again to toggle

mental finch
#

I wonder if they're gonna keep support and Medic combined

#

I don't really have a problem with it, as I've gotten used to being responsible for Ammo and Health, but I would lowkey be okay with it going back to being separate.

orchid tusk
#

like 3 quick ones

vocal tusk
#

Id bring back supply caches around the maps as suplimentary ammo/health. I quite liked the carryable health pouch system from BFV too.

orchid tusk
#

instead of what we got or optional

mental finch
orchid tusk
#

i never got tired of hammering and shoveling so theres that

vocal tusk
#

I never had much problem with it TBH. It added an extra nice piece to the gameplay loop of health management

#

Like not healing back to full health without it. I also liked that

mental finch
#

I just sorta like physically equipping health packs to throw at people, I think it's sorta lame for it to just be a button prompt

#

Feels like some of my agency as a player has been taken away if that makes sense

#

I was okay with the self heal system, which is what I think you're talking about

vocal tusk
#

Well in V it was kinda both, cos players didnt always have them, and medics are active combat healers

mental finch
#

Yeah I'm talking about Medic gameplay specifically with the pouches

#

You can't equip them, it's a button prompt

#

You just hit 3 and he/she was casts them like a spell lmao

#

It says "press 3" in big text over their head, and I just find that sorta lame, it's like just lemme do it man lmao

vocal tusk
#

you couldnt equip by holding 3?

mental finch
#

I don't think so, could you?

vocal tusk
#

I cant remember TBH haha

mental finch
#

I don't have my PC rn cause it's in the shop or I'd check

vocal tusk
#

Normally you can with stuff liek that hehe

mental finch
#

I wanna say you can't with 5, cause I do generally try that

vocal tusk
#

I only have 3, 4 and 2042 installed ATM too

mental finch
#

I know off the top of my head that when I just press 3, nothing will happen without the prompt

Im assuming BF1 is dead on console

I still play it on PC, but I'm guessing it's not the same with PS4

It should never make a presence in another bf again.

a lot of the playerbase loves hardcore, and not having an option for it outside of portal was one of the many things that hurt this game's reception. While I have never really cared for it or gotten the appeal, it should definitely be here.

mid map for 2042, F tier map on any other game

Stadium is just a f tier map overall

stadium is total ass even by 2042 standards, zero flow once you hit the staircases

the bunker is really good except for the fact u get stuck in the middle half the time

Also the fact season 8 was going to be a thing.

atomic sluice

tf is a console gun

eager spire
#

A console gun is a gun that's generally more effective on console or with a controller due to the reduced recoil that 2042 gives controller players.

#

Because that's a function of the game they put in for some reason.

LA_BaLLr is beyond instantiating that archetype - he is the God of vehicle shitting. Lately in Breakthrough I’ve been able to get teams of 4-6 people trying to target him and I’ve got lucky with getting him with C5 a couple times despite the 10 second out of bounds timer so it works out, got him to rage quit twice recently hahaha. He does not like when his deaths are not zero.

foggy lion
atomic sluice
#

ive been running the scz recently and i got all the attachments

foggy lion
#

yeah scz is the most versatile one

atomic sluice
#

ac9 is fun

foggy lion
#

pp29 is good because of high damage and big mag, and ac9, k30 and pbx are best in time to kill

atomic sluice
#

ac9 is great but once ur on medium range ur cooked

#

ive been using the m22 with the scz for medium range and its pretty good

lyric yew
#

i want to play alone vs bots to test some shit but it keeps searching for 4 players. how can i make it completely solo?

foggy lion
#

yeah thats why i dont really use smgs, if you need something better on range use the scz or just straight up use the vhx d3 or m5a3 they are ars but slap like an smg and are better on range

atomic sluice

i havent used the vhx in a long time

might try it again

definetly still busted

g428 in its prime was insane with the thermal scope

Bf 5 is still okay ish

yeah the franchise itself is dead haha the 2042 is the only playable one i think thats how you would say it correctly

sullen merlin

That’s horrible ngl, when bf was huge they were genuinoy some of the best gaming times I had

atomic sluice

2042 is still alot of fun

foggy lion

yeah i have some high hopes for the next one

foggy lion

like i dont like call of duty and that shit

sullen merlin

My biggest heartbreak lowkey was rdr online that game gets no actual updates

zealous loom

Hopefully next BF hits harder so player count goes up again

sullen merlin

Shit was a generational video game

sullen merlin

Next bf better keep it simple

No crazy ass shit like 2042

Good game and all but just no

Looks like that’s what they’re aiming for

Bf 1 ❤️ bf 5

yeah like they have it so easy to just make a simple good battlefield like if they dont have less than 3 brain cells they simply cant do it wrong

yo how many signatures on a petition would y'all reckon I'd need before a change to the game is made? I have an idea, it'd be simple and easy to implement, I reckon it wouldn't change up much as far as meta is concerned but it'd be fun

#

the main gunners seat on the light transports, much more options, 50mm cannons, Tow missiles, "rocket weapon pod" from the MAV, 60mm mortar pod, barrage missiles from the wildcat, idk i reckon it'd be a fun way to make the light transports useful again

it is a bit powerful

it wasnt op in conquest

the two different rocket pod type weapons would be great I think

from the mav and from the wildcat

one for armour and one for people

was there ever an official reason given for the lack of destruction options in this game? this was the first bf game i played so i'm not familiar with the glory days or whatever of battlefield but after playing some of the other games and seeing some videos it's kinda just staggering to me the difference here

jagged wyvern
#

no they just got way too ambitious and it ended up fucking them over

fervent rose
#

they screwed up and couldnt scale

jagged wyvern

battle of the bulge has decent destruction but the rest no

bulge's destruction is bfv destruction

nah bfv destruction was better

the only impressive destruction in 2042 is in arica harbor

they redid the bc2 building destruction and its good

One thing my clan did way back on xbox bf5 was that we would all team swap if the other side was being stomped to shit.

Those games were really fun.

fervent rose

individually bad players but when they have 2-3 vehicles and your team is all randoms, its always over
