A good single player game is hard to come by nowadays.

Yeah it is. I know that internally there was a forceful upgrade which is why the game came out the way it is
I keep on forgetting.
I actually met a former dev.
somber robin
like BFA SL and the sorts were real stinkers
rocky gust
indie games are where it's at rn
vocal tusk
If I were to hazard a guess as to why devs would have complained about engine difficulties around the time of 2042,it would be that they were updating the engine FOR the game, as the same time as Making the game. Which in general is a terrible idea.
At least the engine updates for the next game have been done for nearly 2.5 years.
somber robin
but dragonflight and the war within are being great

Mech 5 mechs is sandbox and moddable. Leading up to the clan invasion. Clans is focused on the clan invasion straight thereafter and therefore its story.

Its sad because the trailer harmed the game more than it did good
fervent rose
I'd probably get Armored Core before mechwarrior anyway I havent played 6 yet
next onyx
It's really annoying cause setting up a control scheme doesn't work ahaha
And its quite laggy.
If you're familiar with THOSE mechwarriors which are more story based then i would have to advise clans.
Clans is standalone and it has limited mech variety (you don't have access to the IIC variants) but is overall a very fun experience as you can commit war crimes with the laser spewing nova.
My mum played tonnes of mechwarrior when I was really small so the series means quite a bit to me. @fervent rose
It has the clan mechs you all know and love though.

Lets turn battlefield into Fortnite not like it would ruin the aesthetic or setting

Ill make it clear. I think the way cod has done their skins is bad due to the radical departure from the style of the game.

theres levels to this opinion and i tend to agree. but then you have COD with their completely aesthetic breaking ones like Attack On Titan skins, and i absolutely hate that stuff

rocky gust
Yeah idk starting with mw2 2020 or smth, i felt some weird shit with dmg there
It could be server issue but
Was shooting a guy, literally same weapon
Shot him 5 times
He doesnt die
He beams me instantly
I recorded the footage, i hit him in the lower torso twice then three in the upper
And he didnt die
His kill cam showed 2 lower 1 upper
Was so confused
next onyx
Oh wait the most recent mw2? That game is legitimately bad.
rocky gust
Oh yeah
next onyx
I don't like dogging on games but genuinely that's the most anti fun game I've seen.
Lightning quick ttk alongside encouraging slow game play with how the attachments are done up like no.
Beta was fun but I realised yeah no.
Full auto g3 was fun.
eager spire
MW22 was IW looking at how people were playing MW19 and getting pissed off about it.
and deliberately designing a game to spite everyone that had fun in MW19.
rocky gust
Then they added it into one game
LMFAO you summed it up perfectly
“How do we make everyone fucking pissed”
next onyx
Mw3 was significantly better even though it had a lot of mw2's bad designed baked into it.
rocky gust
Machine learning claymore that detonates in a blink if i even think about rounding a corner
eager spire
MW23 is MW22 but Sledgehammer gave a little bit of a fuck
And then added like 700 one shot kill weapons to the game.

You know what i think at this point?
The reason why cod is going down the shitters is because all the squeakers we trolled in the past are now adults out for revenge

Frfr
rocky gust
Battlefield actually fucked me up and enforced burst fire habits with the an94.
Yeah lol me too
I didnt need the select fire attachment
I was so used to 2round bursting
Something about the an94 reload got me moist as well
I cant explain it
next onyx
I like the battlefields full ak reloads more.
The an94 had amazing animations.
Cause of the recoil dampening barrel.
next onyx
I used to not enjoy battlefields gameplay, specifically bf4's because of the micro burst meta and suppression screwing it all up.
Hardline was feasible because you killed so quick anyways suppression didn't matter. And applied inversely, you would die so quick it wouldn't matter.
2042 going to burst made me realise the importance of it because it's good for balance for ranged engagements, reducing the ttk even further for distances giving players a feasible chance to take over.
eager spire
I never minded bursting really.
next onyx
I wouldn't mind a system where you'd get more recoil.
rocky gust
Bfv did that in the worst way possible
next onyx
Past a certain amount of shots. Like the stability of your gun going to total shit.
Recoil into spread.
Err inverse
eager spire
I don't agree with that concept.
next onyx
I loved bf5 but recoil not being all consistently controllable was annoying as hell. Plus health attrition.

Spread to recoil conversion?
Yeah terrible decision
Also centering point of aim to my sights?

I think because bf3 you could get away with it to some degree.
Faster ttk meaning it doesnt screw you over.
rocky gust
Like i go into a private server and test recoil then hop in a game thinking im hot shit
And it kicks in the worst way imaginable and i die to someone 4hp left
fervent rose
you have the same types of death with spread though
eager spire
Who the fuck thought this was a good idea
DICE did
this is the same DICE that added visual recoil and sight sway to BF1.
After not having either of those things in BF4 because DICE at that time was based and realized that was dumb
rocky gust
I can at least understand that spread system can be mitigated more by microbursting
Micro bursting in bfv did jack shit
next onyx
You weren't really encouraged to.
rocky gust
Made the recoil more unpredictable in some cases
fervent rose
mid sized bursts were definitely more accurate than full mag dumps in bfv
fervent rose
if you werent bursting ever in bfv you werent playing optimally
next onyx
It's why leading back to it. After some thought too I wouldn't mind seeing a system where recoil would increase bit by bit after a certain point.
next onyx
Maybe accuracy therefore affecting how much recoil gets added to the past 10 12 shots.
rocky gust
Hell, i microbursted 1907 almost every engagement outside of 20 meters

BF2042 reviews on steam are now “mostly positive”
As of recent
Could any players attest to this
Because I only ever see one singular server active on the game at all
And any other method I try to play the game puts me in a solo server

And any other method I try to play the game puts me in a solo server
speakin for na, i get into full servers relatively fast
like sub 45 second queues

im UK and I only seem to see one server in the browser for portal
As for the quick play it’s always into a solo match

my portal matches are pretty dead yea
i only see like 2 out of 10 that have full people

vocal tusk
Recent is the best indication of current state of game. 2042 of all games got, and still gets a lot of hate because of its state at release/before map remakes and class system re-introduction
90% of the negative reviews are based on the games launch, mention no scoreboard, no VOIP, ETC. Which dont get me wrong, should be taken into account. But shouldnt be the basis by which a player buying the game NOW should use to judge.
warm steppe
Not only that a lot of players don’t like all the futuristic shit
It takes away the fun stuff of bf1 and so on

A lot of people me included

It takes away the fun stuff of bf1 and so on

warm steppe
Look around buddy that’s my bf1 is still played lol

i am asking you what stuff is taken away from BF1 that's fun

Bf2042s sniping is a lot different than bf1
That one of the big reasons I won’t even buy it
eager spire
how is 2042 sniping different from BF1's sniping

There is only 1 vehicle that would be considered futuristic, and maybe 2/3 weapons tho. Everythign else exists in the current era of combat?

warm steppe
Ok there’s a lot of people that play battlefield for the nostalgia of the war
vocal tusk
Only scopes over 4.5x magnifications have scope glint, as it should be
warm steppe
That’s why bf1 and bf5 are still thriving
eager spire
you still haven't answered the first question i asked
remote kiln
people still play a older game (the one i prefer)
people still play bf3/4 (one i didnt say)
crickets
vital quail
Actually 6x and up have glint
vocal tusk
Yeah, anything over 4.5. I think a patch note stated 5x and over, but its actually anything higher than 4.5x
Unless that was a bug and its fixed now.
remote kiln
yeah there was a bug where it didnt apply for a bit that was a while ago
vocal tusk
Past BF games will thrive more than 2042, regardless of how good they make it tho. 2042s reliance on matchmaking will kill it eventually.
eager spire
I wanna know what 2042 removed that was "fun" in BF1
warm steppe
The fun??
vocal tusk
BF1 is aesthetically nice to play, but I dont love the actual gameplay
warm steppe
Sitting in one area for 6 minutes to get one kill?
Having to put a ruler on ur screen to get a kill?
remote kiln
what
vocal tusk
That is way more of a problem in BF1 than 2042 lol
eager spire
How vague and nebulous, I have like 380 hours in BF1 and I'd say the fun left the franchise after BF Hardline.
warm steppe
That’s cause of hackers
remote kiln
yeah obviously never played the older games if you think thats somehow a problem in 2042
eager spire
I am on PC.
vocal tusk
Lets just pretend that the sweatspot mechanic doesnt exist in BF1 lol
eager spire
BF4 is fine.
I'd argue BF1 and BFV are worse in regards to cheaters.
because they don't have a BF4DB/Battlefield Agency equivalent.
vocal tusk
BFV is a bit better, but it still has cheaters.
eager spire
Due to not having allowance for server plugins.
vocal tusk
I still dont enjoy BFV these days tho, as most of my favorite weapons, especially SMGs are just totally useless now.
warm steppe
Ur on meth
eager spire
You're on LSD, you're hallucinating fun.

BF1 is not that fun.
Stop lying please and thanks
vocal tusk
BF1 is fun, but I dont personally like it more than BF4, BF V or even 2042 gameplay wise. (Mostly cos I prefer the gunplay/movement in BFV/2042)
warm steppe
Bf1 is an old ass game and it still has a player base wym it’s not fun why would people play if it wasn’t fun??
Ur probably just bad lol
eager spire
because people have low standards
also i have like a 2 K/D in BF1, it's not a hard game.

Kd doesn’t even really matter in a war style game it not call of duty

Kd doesn’t even really matter in a war style game it not call of duty

KD doesn't matter all of a sudden when it comes out that their KD is terrible.
hard jay
If its trolling then its not working, a troll is supposed to make people mad
eager spire
Ur probably just bad lol
This you?
vocal tusk
And tbh, while KD isn't the most important Stat, it is pretty important when it comes to main mode objective play. It means you died 2x more than you kill, which means you aren't really helping on objectives that much
warm steppe
Again it’s a war game and on games like bf1 and bf5 the games filled with cheaters as u said so getting a good kd is kinda impossible
vocal tusk
So you lied then?
vocal tusk
KD of 2 is absolutely not average. Only the top 0.5% of players have a KD over 2.
vital quail
Ok kpm on 5 is 0.36
vocal tusk
The average KD last I checked is something like 0.86
eager spire
That’s trash lol
why do you say shit like this
and then when we start looking into how well you're doing, it suddenly doesn't matter
warm steppe
why do you say shit like this
Why do u try to continue it?

Why do u try to continue it?
because I don't appreciate people like you.

Yes, you can see on stats page where in the percentile you sit.
warm steppe
because I don't appreciate people like you.
Did I ask what u appreciate?

Just take the L and learn from this experience. Try not to belittle others to make yourself feel better. In places where others know better, that rarely works.

In the short time i agree

They were never going to acknowledge their actual problems, they failed to actually realize the flaws of their competition, trying to coast on with no SBMM and input based matchmaking, which alone cannot prop up a game that is otherwise mediocre.

incendiary bullets are dumb and create stupid situations where killtrades happen, firebomb is dumb because it's a close range "I win" button.
The game was better when the Spiderbot was removed from it tbh.

They should've just gotten rid of it.
they already had to disable it before launch due to it not working properly, and there were still instances after launch where it did not work properly
and it was annoying
and nobody liked it

Yeah people hate that thing, but the funny thing is that the other dedsec ability, passive, and ult made dedsec op
The spiderbot was the weakest part

Ranked was terrible anyway because there was no ibmm
I was the only mkb player in ruby

I will try delta force and if that doesnt hit im just gonna quit fps

I am not surprised to see it go, nor do i feel bad for it.
They could've made the game better. But they didn't.

I am surprised to see it go this soon, but not that its gone
eager spire
The flaws were numerous and obvious.
sinful parrot
The netcode is pretty good now so it does get better
They had also announced a spiderbot rework
eager spire
is it removing it from the game
so
you know how i was mentioning earlier that it was a bit weird that Ubisoft chose to can xDefiant in December
turns out they shut down Ubisoft San Francisco.
Which means everyone working there now doesn't have a job.
that's actually pretty shitty of 'em to do, they're not getting any holiday pay or anything.

I am not surprised to see it go, nor do i feel bad for it.
okay addendum, I do feel bad for the people working at Ubisoft San Francisco.

I have been working on removing the textures for a massive boost in fps and latency performance.
I was so close but I hit a wall and am not sure how to proceed from here.
eager spire
I have been working on removing the textures for a massive boost in fps and late...
...why?
why did you expect to be able to remove all the textures
neon igloo
I mean I did but it created a filter I cannot remove.
Because of the aforementioned reasons
eager spire
why did you think that would work
neon igloo
Because it works laterally in every other game.
eager spire
why are you having to remove the textures in every other game
eager spire
what kind of weirdo PC are you running
neon igloo
It is very common to want to achieve "comp settings" through making games look like crap.
... even if you have a high end pc.
textures and extra graphics and so on all add latency to a game and obviously takes away FPS.
somber robin
im pretty sure comp settings arent possible in this game
nor are they even allowed really
neon igloo
They are... almost!
somber robin
plus deleting your textures to gain an advantage just feels scummy man
neon igloo
I am not deleting them. Just not rendering them.
eager spire
"Comp settings" is usually just all low settings my guy
chilly jacinth
You're gonna get diminishing returns from removing literally all visuals
somber robin
I am not deleting them. Just not rendering them.
wording but still thats kinda whack
eager spire
nobody who's actually seriously competing is going through the effort of removing all the textures.
neon igloo
Have you ever watched a csgo's/val stream who is a comp player?
eager spire
yes and they generally have textures
neon igloo
im def not your guy either.
chilly jacinth
Fairly certain removing textures isn't allowed in any of those games
eager spire
it's not
somber robin
you might get that level of unredered textures from say TF2 comp
but at the same time
if your at TF2 comp levels maybe its time to stop
eager spire
but even then they're not removing textures, they're just running them at very low quality.
neon igloo
So there are textures that are present under the textures that are rendered that you at at Low/Med/High. We just don't have access to remove them in the menu and we 100% should. It doesn't give a seeing advantage. It just makes up for the shit engine.
chilly jacinth
It definitely does give you an advantage 
neon igloo
I am trying to hit that 500 fps.
eager spire
It doesn't give a seeing advantage
I am highly skeptical.
eager spire
those people got banned didn't they
neon igloo
They were using a 3rd party app. I am doing this through the game its self through a cfg file.
chilly jacinth
There already are cfg files out there for better performance
neon igloo
That's cool. There are about 20-30 other commands not in those though that are not known about.
remote kiln
not as if you're doing anything that's hidden, frostbite engine commands are publicly available during a game
doesn't matter lol you'll still get banned for that
"xyz exploit isn't fixed" =/= "I can use this"
it's pretty obvious if you're using a wall hack my guy or exploit equivalent
you've got your steam linked in your profile and that's linked to your ea id so if you seriously think they couldn't ban you just now you're a bit loony
id be worried to publicly admitting to showing a wall hack exploit in a official server run by EA staff lol, use your brain dude
neon igloo
How do you log evidence to report it then?

youre right here they don't need to prove anything

Somp settings in a casual game like Battlefield is funny. People sweating their brains out playing against a bunch of 30+ year old dads playing in the evening time. 😄

Not that it makes much difference TBH. I just use the same basic knife since launch, and very rarely use takedowns (As they are the best way to get killed and look stupid)

Or delete the robo dog

Sold skins for the robo dog as pre-order bonus tho, so they legit cant remove/disable it
Making it a resupply station, med station or both would have been cool tho. Ordering it to run to a spot where a player needs meds/ammo could have been fun

Just make it so your AI are smart enough to do some things (Traversal) but dumb enough to not do others (Disallow them from landing headshots)

Land a jet and let the enemy AI get in it
torpid wadi

remote kiln
they don't need to do any investment for the bots tbf, they've already done that during battlefield 5
vocal tusk
Bots are the real winners in 2042 tho. They get to use nameless, faceless soldiers in a classic class syetem.
remote kiln
not many ways to make neural network bots any better
vital quail
They just slowly float in the pondhawk, and the one time I saw them in a jet, it just sat there
remote kiln
that's because they rely on heatmaps for where they move
jets/flying vehicles don't have a set path or "popularity route" so they are much harder to coordinate
vocal tusk
IIRC, they only know where not to fly (Into buildings/the ground, ETC)
remote kiln
also why the bots always suck when a new map is released
vital quail
Do the planes in bf3 portal matches spawn in the air as well?
remote kiln
yes
vital quail
I assume so because of that, but the maps have the carrier and airfields so 🤷
remote kiln
the taking off from the ground mechanic is from previous titles
it's in some portal matches but not the official ones
vocal tusk
It still works in 2042

they're probably bringing it back if the latest changes are anything to go by
vocal tusk
like all the vehicles have working and functional landing gear, which works when landing/taking off

another thing 2042 did right is add red zone to bases

I don't remember because I was like 12 but could you place mines inside the enem...
yes you could but it was tricky to do because they would detonate if a vehicle didn't have an occupier

no campers to spawn kill

they are not just enemy vehicles as people think but also for vehicles that aren't being driven

BF3 launch when you could place infinite mines haha
remote kiln
tbh I think it's inevitable that they're bringing it back especially since they have added the anti air into all the new dlc maps for the spawn point

Base AA should be auto fire when unmanned IMO tho
vital quail
I died quite a bit to mines on the airfield on wake island and hamada when spawning in the planes
vocal tusk
Auto AA at home base did a lot to help base camping in BF3
remote kiln
dont tell anyone but you could also abuse it
battlefield 3 was fucked because the out of bounds timer reset when entering a flying vehicle and/or a mav so you could just sit at the base for the entire match
or just walk endlessly out of bounds

I actually really liked on Reclaimed that they added the AA to the middle of the map. Made holding that flag a bit more important. If a map like Orbital had the same, it would greatly improve the importance of the flag its on
remote kiln
would be tricky to do for orbital without changing the spawn points because that's a massive advantage
RU side is open air and US is covered by the building

You could put it on either side of the runway like area...on the flags that exist at the base of the tall building

ah I get you hm wouldn't be a bad idea

is bf 2042 worth playing in 2024?
yes if on sale
remote kiln
that was 3 years ago, watch YouTube reviewers if you want a gauge on how it is now
verbal meteor
i have watched a few ones, but there are all kind of points, some people said that is not the best but its ok, others said that's it fun and other that is trash
remote kiln
it's about a 7/10 if you're wanting a conclusive rating, worth it if on sale
game has it's issues still that will never be resolved but it's fine
vocal tusk
6/10 if you play alone, 7/10 if you have friends to play it with
Lobby disbanding will keep it at a 6/10 for a solo player.

I think it's funny that this specialist's shield can withstand a tank bullet, but if there's another specialist like that on the enemy team and he comes in combat with you, depending on the position he comes from, he can kill you easily even though the two of you have a shield.

Speaking of Liz, a while ago She was nerfed because they decreased the speed at which you could turn in the air with her missile But since the developers did that they could increase the speed at which you turn with that tank called Thor Because he is extremely slow To turn sideways
