battlefield-2042

[vital quail]

Crossplay off will always result in harder to find matches

[prisma meteor]

he meant easier or harder matches

on i guess is easier, since console players are kinda less sweaty and more casual

[vital quail]

Depends on the player

I find that people that complain more about crossplay are not the best at the game, but since he is on PC I don't know what it would look like

[naive ember]

Console players are better just saying bud

[acoustic mirage]

Lis is really not as good against ground vehicles as crawford with rpgs

[prisma meteor]

i believe next battlefield will have crossplay automatically on. Consoles dominating again, it doesn't make sense to limit and divide the matchmaking

[acoustic mirage]

the only thing she got it c4/mines and unlimited ammo

4 rpgs with crawford and ap launcher + at grenade take out ground vehicles way faster

she is better into air vehicles

[prisma meteor]

i don't believe it, but it's ok. One thing is certain. Pc players have more sweaty people (tryharders) in their ranks and also more cheaters (and it's logical that cheaters use, well. Pc ofcourse)

[naive ember]

No proof of that dude

Only the cheating part is correct

[arctic grove]

where is my fkn food im waitin

[naive ember]

Now I'm not coming

It's mine now

[arctic grove]

WTF!

[naive ember]

Just finished a redacted and the best squad had 3 console players and 1 pc

[brittle wind]

Cringe

They should've went with BF6

[merry heart]

Battlebutt

[next onyx]

It's a placeholder name.

[prisma meteor]

https://ibb.co/X5269r0 are these stats too bad? 😩

[acoustic mirage]

top players are around 5 k/d 3 kpm

[brittle wind]

I hope so

I would rather want them to name it BF 2043 than BF™

Reboots are cringe and confusing

[glass imp]

Why BF2043? We’re already in 2049 🤔

[brittle wind]

Reminds me of a ryan gosling meme

I can't post it tho

[glass imp]

[brittle wind]

We will most likely get a banger trailer as usual BF trailer team delivers since 2016

Only exception is BFV reveal but even then later trailers are pretty good

[cosmic pond]

recoiless m5 doesnt blow up vulcan turret?

[kindred flint]

man the dm7 2.5 thermal is fucked up

half the time i try and ADS with it, its 1x zoom or something

[frozen loom]

Thermal DXR-1 rolls.

[cosmic pond]

champion or arcom muzzle for vhx

[low coral]

why are u using the dm7 lmao

[kindred flint]

mistakes were made

i picked it during a battle of the bulge match i joined and it was working surprisingly well despite me not using it for a while.. then in the next match, 128p... it was absolute dog shit

[low coral]

its worse than almost every other DMR

the vcar and bsvm are different but yea

[kindred flint]

its like the mk11 in bf4...i wanted to like it but it just wasnt the best

[low coral]

svk is def the best for sniping, I see a lot of people using the m39 emr for mid-close range, and bsvm would be one of the best guns in the game if it had a larger mag

[kindred flint]

nah it doesnt need to be more broken

[low coral]

lol

[kindred flint]

g428 implementation was still the funniest shit

i mean redacted is a small af map... but the drop off range on that gun was waaay too high

[low coral]

ok i get bf6 is coming so support for 2042 is gonna end but pls add more vehicles dice

one jet is absolutely insane after three years

[quiet shell]

the Dm7 used to be so good when the AR's had the accuracy of a musket

[low coral]

lol revolutionary war era battlefield would be interesting

[eager spire]

it'd be really boring.

[kindred flint]

eh when ARs were shit at launch the svk was the king..2 shot any range

[low coral]

still is the king for more than like 100m

obv not for rlly long range

[kindred flint]

idk id just use the bsvm or g428 tbh more ammo

[low coral]

yeah maybe the g428

it takes more than 3 shots with the bsvm in my experience

[kindred flint]

iirc the 248s range was nerfed to be worse than the bsvm?

[faint oxide]

Is this game dead?

[acoustic mirage]

starting to get the hang of lis

shes gross, best overall anti tank specialist with at mines, at grenade, and ap launcher plus her lissile

crawford is better against ground vehicles with rpgs and the same loadout less mines

using mines like c5 is a blast and very effective

shooting down air vehicles and at mine kills are super satisfying

but 4 rpgs and the wombo combo can solo tanks and armor much easier than lis assuming you can't kamikaze mine em

crawford can solo 2 tanks with a single resupply

ultimate squad based is angel, two crawfords with rpgs and a rao with soflam

[low coral]

for anti-tank

rao doesnt need a soflam because hacking already does that

[acoustic mirage]

hacking is range limited

[low coral]

I would use blasco with soflam or rao with c5

[acoustic mirage]

soflam can tag way further

[low coral]

exactly

blasco is still more helpful to the squad

[acoustic mirage]

best anti ground is prob 4 crawfords with rpgs

[low coral]

3 crawfords and rao or blasco

[acoustic mirage]

a single lis with AT mines suicide mission is just as effective

[low coral]

no lis is the best AA

[acoustic mirage]

if you can throw a mine onto a tank it two shots it

[low coral]

not when paired with a soflam tho

[acoustic mirage]

but yes also lissiles king of aa

[low coral]

but ur gonna die

[acoustic mirage]

its 50/50

[low coral]

might as well just use crawford and not die

[acoustic mirage]

parachute at mines too

kamikaze them from another vehicle or from cover and just jump throw mines at the vehicle works

[low coral]

best squad in general is angel, crawford, rao, and either blasco or falck in my opinion

[acoustic mirage]

for conquest maybe

breakthrough imo is zain, mackay, falck and paik

assuming infantry only

[low coral]

I would go rao

hacking someone spots nearby enemies

[acoustic mirage]

paik sweats can do like 4-8 kpm with pp-29 smokes and wallhacks

and c5

its just as good if not better than assault kit

[low coral]

yeah if your squad isnt doing anything

[acoustic mirage]

idk about that at aarp our squads all go 3kpm for 8 peeps doouble stack, guava goes off for 100 kills

[low coral]

i would say zain, falck, paik, and rao

[acoustic mirage]

everyone else at 40-60

[low coral]

mackay is good for certain maps

[acoustic mirage]

zain is my main

[low coral]

same

[acoustic mirage]

good with the airburst, flushes rats from cover

and perserverence real good if you high kpm

[low coral]

zain, crawford, falck, and rao

best for each class in general

[acoustic mirage]

i play zain, crawlord, falck and paik

paik is hyper aggro assaulter in disguise with c5

[low coral]

i only use rao because enemies that damage u become spotted

[acoustic mirage]

i get way more spots with paik

[low coral]

maybe for close range

[acoustic mirage]

like go 100+ kills with shotgun and have like 150 assists spots

[low coral]

not on conquest

[acoustic mirage]

redacted conquest

[low coral]

i mean maybe ur just that good

yeah on redacted it's hard to beat paik and a 12m auto with thermal

[acoustic mirage]

i stopped using thermal due to the skin and the special k9 holo

shotguns really dont need thermal imo, might as well get that ads speed

i use thermal on 880mcs tho

12m i think the average kill is 10m

and ur smoking and scanning pushing as paik the thermal doesnt help that build for me

ive heard good things about rao but i never tried him

i dont really play conquest a ton tho

[low coral]

yeah on qonquest rao or blasco is way better

blasco for camping unfortunately

[acoustic mirage]

i'd rather just assault 24/7 with occasional flexes into crawford, falck and paik

assault main since bf2

[low coral]

medic main since bfv

[acoustic mirage]

medics real allstar

[low coral]

i started playing with falck

the self heal is good

[acoustic mirage]

yea i have bad habit of assaulting with falck

go for ez rezzes

but falck with pp-29 is killstreak machine

[low coral]

just flick down and shoot her pistol on the ground and it heals u

a falck and paik crossover would be broken

[acoustic mirage]

honestly zain with med pen and armor self healing is close to falck just cant heal others or rez

[low coral]

the med pen doesnt regen fast enough to compare

[acoustic mirage]

perserverence tho

[low coral]

oh true forgot abt that

[fringe steeple]

Good day! I'm looking for a teammate for a comfortable game in battlefield 5.
I played for 33 hours at level 22, mostly playing as a medic or as a sniper (razvetchik)
I play almost every day.
I WARN YOU, I'm from Russia and I don't know much English. It's advisable that you speak Russian.
На русском языке:
Доброго времени суток! Ищу тиммейта для комфортной игры в battlefied 5.
Наиграл 33 часа 22 уровень, в основном играю за медика либо же за снайпера (разветчика)
Играю практически каждый день.

[brittle wind]

Rao is the best spotter in the game

[summer birch]

Meh

No

[brittle wind]

Hack one person, all his friends are also spotted

[frozen loom]

Casper is. His drone spotting is OP.

[summer birch]

Takes too long

[brittle wind]

You can't use casper on redacted though

[frozen loom]

Not really. I just spam Q in the drone. It goes on for miles.

[summer birch]

What’s ur favorite gun

[naive ember]

Your English looks fine to me bud who are you trying to fool here?

[frozen loom]

VCAR and BSV-M.

[summer birch]

Really

The vcar

[frozen loom]

Yeah, I love DMRs.

[summer birch]

So do I

The first gun I got mastery for was the dm7

[frozen loom]

DM7 is mid, imo.

[summer birch]

They need to add more dmrs

It’s good

I like the pp29

And the mp9

Same

Im getting into rush tho

It’s fun

It’s pretty much 6 am for me

Should I go to sleep and wake up late or stay up and be really tired later in the day

[naive ember]

Real 2042 players don't sleep

[proper relic]

LFG | bf2042 | Frontlines XL | EU | DM me

[spare quest]

#lfg-pc

[merry heart]

Yourself

I'm just kidding

[prisma meteor]

hello, are bf3 conquest and tdm of ages permanent ?

[proper relic]

What bout this?😂👍🏼

[prisma meteor]

1942 battlefield tdm feels fun

[vital quail]

Portal gamemodes rotate weekly

[prisma meteor]

okay thanks

btw, breakthrough is attack/defence stuff (instead of payload we have zones) and frontlines is like rush (going back and forth) ?

[naive ember]

BT is for big boys and Frontline is for toddlers

[frozen loom]

What about conquest?

I only started playing conquest starting BF 2042.

I only did TDM in BF4.

[frozen loom]

Nah. Redacted is.

I like Bulge. Its snowy contrast is nice.

[vocal tusk]

Bulge is a nice map, but they need to make it conquest classic.

[fickle fossil]

Any one wanna farm xp with me ?

[past jacinth]

I rebought this on pc a week ago and have been obsessed. Battlefield is much more fun on pc for me.

Dropped about 25 hours over the past week and a half, happy to say the experience has been smooth and fun

[frozen loom]

Bulge is a good map for Lis rockets.

And sniping.

[patent pivot]

Rush for me

[brittle wind]

I prefer breakthrough/rush too but maps play better when they are designed for conquest

If a map plays better in conquest then it's most likely good for rush/breakthrough too

[arctic wedge]

Is it weird i play mainly hardcore servers? 😂

[patent pivot]

Yes

[arctic wedge]

Man i freaking like hardcore servers, makes us pay more attention everywhere instead of relying on the map

[blissful osprey]

do you guys get suspicious if you can't see someones stats on battlefield tracker or am I overthinking things?

[blissful osprey]

why not

personally i just don't like tanks who sit behind our base camping doing nothing but trying to snipe people

[prisma meteor]

so breakthrough is attack/ defence (actually i thinking this kind of mode is the "default" one in Delta force), while frontlines is closer to rush (back and forth, like conquest but linear).
To be honest Conquest is THE battlefield game mode. Bought bf 2042 just because i had that itch. Some other mp games (df, battlefront ii etc) have also conquest modes but it's not like battlefield

[naive ember]

Not really, after 200+ hours or so it gets boring so you get into BT and it's still fun after another 200+ hours

Then comes rush XL giving most of us a break from BT

[low coral]

conquest is in most FPS games tbh

even in cod technically

[naive ember]

[merry heart]

[naive ember]

[violet badger]

Do you guys prefer conquest or breakthrough

WHO LET HIM COOK

[placid echo]

Technically already done anyways with gadgets

[frozen loom]

https://tenor.com/view/amoonguss-shimmy-foongus-dance-pokemon-dance-gif-7650366972943876047

[merry heart]

[kindred flint]

they really ran out of ideas hard

[merry heart]

I haven't played Pokemon since Silver/gold

[frozen loom]

It's Amoonguss.

[merry heart]

Amoogus

[brittle wind]

BT

Especially in 2042

Maps are too big

For older games depends on the map

[hushed lark]

how do I change where the damage indicator is?

[naive ember]

What's a pokeman?

[merry heart]

Porkymon

[frozen loom]

Can a Lis rocket turn off the boost?

Or, is it that once it's boosted, it's boosted for life.

How useful is the concussion grenade? I never see anyone use it.

[merry heart]

You mean the flashbang?

[frozen loom]

Yep.

[merry heart]

It's pretty shit.

[frozen loom]

[merry heart]

Almost all engagements I use smoke.

[frozen loom]

Seems useful for Dozer.

[vital quail]

The only person I've seen use it is tk

And didn't even realize it also blinds himself

[eager spire]

He probably thinks that the concussion grenade shouldn't effect the person that throws it

[merry heart]

Have you ever played counter strike

[frozen loom]

Nah. I mean you can avoid getting blinded.

[mental delta]

That's the best part about it Yankee boy

You just gotta enjoy it

[naive ember]

[kindred flint]

bro are you a necromancer?

[frozen loom]

[mental delta]

Wdym ?

[kindred flint]

you reply to a post from 2 months ago

[mental delta]

Yo WTF happened ?

I thought you said that a few hours ago

[kindred flint]

frenchie smoking something fierce

[mental delta]

It's just my discord app

It probably bugged or something

[cosmic pond]

the frontlines XL gamemode ALWAYS goes to 45 minutes it gets so fking old during every match lol

[obtuse pewter]

running assault with under barrel smokes, smoke launcher and smoke grenades and you can single handedly make or break entire pushes

you got like 15 smokes to lay down with that loadout 😂

[merry heart]

Yeah I did that with medics in BF1 on Russian DLC maps

[kindred flint]

yeah the svk is definitely more fun than the dm7

but what was embarrassing was the squad that couldnt kill me even after i ran out of ammo 💀 guess that pistol didnt win back to back world wars for nothing

[echo yew]

dice make 2025 have a dmr meta

i will jitterclick everyone to oblivion

[naive ember]

[fickle fossil]

Any one able to help me out real quick ? I need one more to test something

[kindred flint]

so you mean like season 1 when bsvm was put in... or season X when g428 was put in?

[echo yew]

Those two were an assault rifle and a battle rifle in the wrong category

[brittle wind]

ASVAL has 2 variants, one of them is a DMR(VSS Vintorez), other one is an assault rifle(AS VAL)

[kindred flint]

look at this nerd knowing gun names n shit

[merry heart]

Gotta cut back on that coffee man

[naive ember]

[simple portal]

Hate me but 2042 is overhated

[vital quail]

Tell that to #battlefield-legacy-titles

[simple portal]

Alr

[eager spire]

no it's not x2

[fickle fossil]

Any one wanna farm weapon mastery with me ?

[kindred flint]

how long ago did the svd get put in?

[echo flicker]

how do i invert my heli controls on pc?

[kindred flint]

because apparently in that amount of time it took till now for me to get 100 kills with the svk

[merry heart]

[brittle wind]

I can help you farm operator mastery

Weapons are doable in whatever mode you want to play

Wdym?

[fickle fossil]

That would be real nice

[low coral]

yes

its better for progression

the game would be really boring if there wasnt goals outside of just winning

[vital quail]

It's a video game

[eager spire]

i mean, suddenly being able to have a grenade launcher or underbarrel shotgun mid-life is a balancing issue

if we're gonna talk about this being a video game

also if we're gonna talk about this being a video game, let's talk about how this one sucks

[low coral]

get out of this chat then

yoo ghost recon

[brittle wind]

It's the same as BF4, BF4 didn't had different mags though so you could equip a grip and a laser or a grip and a flashlight

I think they should go back to that

I don't like how every weapon can have 50 round drum mags

[eager spire]

Make me, actually.

[low coral]

shiver me timbers

quaking in my boots rn

[eager spire]

I know that.

tarrerist

[brittle wind]

One thing that's good about + system is that it will prevent DICE to go into generic gunsmith systems

I think + system will stay if battle royale rumors are true, it might even positively effect other games to simplify attachments in order to copy + system

[eager spire]

tarrerist

[low coral]

just a question

not trying to be rude here

[patent path]

who's this moron

[eager spire]

I am heavily skeptical. I feel like you already know the answer to the question.

[low coral]

no seriously im just wondering

[eager spire]

not only are you stupid but you also can't spell. that's hilarious.

[patent path]

he can't spell because he's stupid

[rapid moon]

Both of them

[low coral]

arguing in a discord is beyond me

[rapid moon]

Especially about stuff like this

[eager spire]

i'm sure it is

i'm gonna go get food, brb

[naive ember]

[obtuse pewter]

what an unbearable conversation I just had the displeasure of reading

😂

[naive ember]

[vital quail]

Mods shouldn't have deleted the messages tbh, saved from more embarrassment

[low coral]

he probably deleted them himself

[rapid moon]

What did u get

[low coral]

no need to continue

[eager spire]

Oh wow

he left the server actually.

That's hilarious.

[rapid moon]

Or got banned

[low coral]

probably got banned

or kicked

[eager spire]

nah, i didn't make a ticket, no way he got banned

[low coral]

someone else could have

[eager spire]

mods don't care unless it's in a ticket.

[vital quail]

I think they sometimes do delete stuff

[tardy tree]

if theres one thing i cant stand its a fucking dickhead

[vital quail]

Whether it's a real person or automated is the question

[rapid moon]

Scott consider me your rival

[eager spire]

They do, but it's not with any regularity, I would not rely on that happening.

[vital quail]

key words may trigger something to happen or something

[low coral]

deleting is pointless

[rapid moon]

I despise recons

[eager spire]

uh, Zula, I don't think you understand what rival means

[low coral]

I depise caspers

[eager spire]

because that just puts you and Scott on the same side

[brittle wind]

Most annoying recons are Blasco or Rao imo

[low coral]

nope

at least rao and blasco users are decent at the game

[brittle wind]

Blasco messes with your hud, Rao tags you when you shoot him

[low coral]

casper is for noobs

if ur sniping on my squad and have less than 10 kills your getting a hovercraft on ur head

[brittle wind]

I carried my team to first place with Rao in my last match lol

With 0 kills

I did lots of spotting though

Guy was asking me to get some kills

I said ''Im a pacifist''

[low coral]

lol

im talking abt the kids who sit in the back with casper and get like 3 kills and dont do anything for the team

[brittle wind]

Best way to play with Casper is in 128 modes imo

Sit back, relax and just spot everyone with no worries

[low coral]

yeah

t1 grinding casper is pretty fun

[brittle wind]

He's the only recon I haven't grinded yet

[low coral]

I used to

[brittle wind]

Other 3 were generally easy

[low coral]

got like half way

[brittle wind]

I see

[low coral]

you have to get 8k spots

its insane

[brittle wind]

Imma try to grind Falck and Lis first instead or Dozer and Mackay

You can get like 500 spots per match in 128 modes though

So it takes like 20 games

Give or take

[low coral]

boring

[brittle wind]

It takes 10 games if you can spot 800 players per match

It will consist of spotting same people over and over again though

[naive ember]

[low coral]

[frozen loom]

Sniping on the cliffslide on Exposure is cringe.

[limpid pond]

Anyone got any good audio mixer setting for bf 2042?

[brittle wind]

I use war tapes but people say night mode is better for footsteps

[limpid pond]

what do you mean? are you talking about in game audio?

[brittle wind]

Yeah

[limpid pond]

i have a mixer sadlt so in game audio is fine. its my settings on my mixer

[brittle wind]

Oh okay

[limpid pond]

sounds heavily bass boosted and i hate that

[low coral]

is it better than the headphones setting

[brittle wind]

Yes imo

Sounds closer to a BF game with war tapes

[low coral]

i mean for footsteps

[brittle wind]

Yeah

People say that but can't confirm

You can try it

[quartz acorn]

are snipers any fun to use?

just downloaded bf42

[eager spire]

run

[frozen loom]

DXR-1.

[low coral]

dont even

[frozen loom]

SWS-10 is overrated.

[low coral]

rorsch is the best sniper

if you know how to use it

gol and ntw are 2nd

dxr is 3rd

sws is 4th

although it is the best all-around

[frozen loom]

Master Roshi takes too long to execute.

NTW's range is absurdly low.

It's basically a close combat gun.

[low coral]

does the most damage

[frozen loom]

I like it, but it's not really a sniper rifle.

[low coral]

yeah its an anti armour rifle

still good tho

[frozen loom]

It's the nicest looking sniper rifle.

Very intimidating.

[low coral]

gol has the fastest time to look down scope

which is why i use it

with a 6x anyway

[merry heart]

it really is

[frozen loom]

My team was in the lead by 2x the points.

Then they rested on their laurels.

We lost.

How'd we go from 600-300 to 0-200?

[granite nova]

has anyone else had any problems with 2042 crashing there whole computer ? i have a ryzen 7 5800x and a 2080 super

[low coral]

nope

[low coral]

what

[frozen loom]

Do you know the saying?

[low coral]

oh yeah

i thought u were talking abt the enemy team

[frozen loom]

Talking about my team.

[low coral]

yea ik

[remote birch]

anyone on?

[small forge]

Anyone want to play

[remote birch]

yessir

[limpid pond]

Anyone know the most common used clip or video recording software for 2042?

[frozen loom]

OBS.

[limpid pond]

Is obs the best one?

How's the sound quality

[small forge]

@remote birch how we do this

[dusty elm]

very good you can tweek the sound soft or loud, however you like

[limpid pond]

Thanks man. Imma give it a go

[dusty elm]

npz if you run into any question about obs we here

[pliant acorn]

Was there once a Battlefield-V channel

[visual cradle]

I haven’t been active in a while on this server but for my next idea: next season bring back the Chinese team

[arctic grove]

Does anyone know how to lvl up fast in this game. I just been playing holiday protocol

[visual cradle]

Custom games dosent matter what xp you get as long as your lvl goes up (only works until lvl 70)

[jagged nova]

Anyone else thinking that proximity based chat would be great in vehicles?

[remote birch]

i hopped off, but send me a dm the next time you're on

[low coral]

grind ai

[cosmic pond]

can i change the air vehicle controls? the air rolling and such feels all wrong

[low coral]

you can to a certain extent

[cosmic pond]

i dont understand how people pilot air vehicles. are they just all console players that do it? because my mind literally cant wrap around how it works

and ive tried a whole bunch of times lol

on mouse n keyboard

[low coral]

i cant fly jets very well

[spare quest]

Skill issue tbh

[cosmic pond]

its just super awkward, i would like to try rebinding A+D to air roll instead of my mouse going left and right

[low coral]

honestly controller is so much better for vehicles i know people who have a controller on standby to switch to

[cosmic pond]

yeah i bet it is haha

oh theres an idea

[low coral]

I would have that setup if you could use m&k on xbox

praying that delta force comes with m&k support

[eager spire]

nah there are PC heli/jet pilots, but most of the ones that are like, actually good, like, have spent a lot of time in learning how to play those vehicles really well, are not playing 2042.

because 2042 is not a good game.

[low coral]

oh my god

[eager spire]

and also people hate it when those players show up in a lobby anyway, because the battlefield community hates players that are good.

[low coral]

thats true

nightbird sweats are the most annoying

[eager spire]

yeah how dare people be good at the video game.

[small forge]

Anyone looking to teach a noob

[low coral]

whats ur problem 😭

some of us just want to chill

[low coral]

i would but I js got off

[jagged nova]

If you're looking to use aircraft get a flight stick.

[eager spire]

i'm sure you can figure out that I am not a fan, of how the Battlefield community generally treats players that are good at the game. Like, I do not believe that being good at the game justifies any of the shit these people get for doing so.

"some of us just want to chill" they are probably chilling as well, it's a public lobby, they just happen to be better, they're not going to deliberately play worse just to placate random people they don't know.

so, that's my problem

[spare quest]

Good pilots wouldn‘t have such a bad reputation if they wouldn‘t br so toxic all the time

Or have a god complex

[jagged nova]

if you can't go toe to toe then get smarter. as far as not being able to take the trash talk - get a thicker skin....

[eager spire]

Okay, in their defense, if you had people that you know are worse than you constantly talking shit at you for the simple fact that you're existing and doing well near them, would you not just send that energy right back to them. Because that's basically what these people end up doing.

and besides, regardless of all this, it doesn't justify harassment of these people specifically.

[low coral]

everyone gets harassed in gaming

get over it

[eager spire]

okay but i would never say it's justified.

[spare quest]

The pilots are always the first ones who become toxic Atleast from my experience

[eager spire]

Did AsheBF stalk like 5 guys and taunt them about a dead friend first.

like, obviously an extreme case, but seriously.

[spare quest]

yeah im talking about the average game experience

[cosmic pond]

what button the xbox controller does countermeasures on a jet?

it didnt pop up with a button, its like its not bound

[low coral]

thats an extremely niche scenario that doesn't represent most situations

[eager spire]

yes. I am aware.

That still doesn't make most of the shit people in the BF community say about anyone who's even half decent at the game okay.

like the way most of these people talk you'd think you're not allowed to be good at the game.

[low coral]

it's only people who make the game not even fun to play that get hate

[eager spire]

okay but you have to consider that they're doing nothing but just playing the game. if them being good at the game makes the game less fun, then that's a problem with the game, not the player.

don't hate the player, hate the game.

[quartz acorn]

HOLD STILL

IVE PLAYED THESE GAMES BEFORE

[low coral]

what

[cosmic pond]

its an extremely tired squid games meme

[eager spire]

i've never seen squid game.

[hard jay]

I saw squid game one with the fam

The sex scene traumatized me

[quiet shell]

Which you guys rather have for the next battlefields gunplay? An emulation of CoD's or it's own style?

Yeah weapons that require skill to use with a realism bend would be nice

Hell I'd take the next battlefield having a full blown magazine system instead of a bullet count

Along with a tap to regular reload and keep a mag with a double tap to fast reload and keep a mag

Yeah precisely like that

I wonder if going for a stronger realism angle is the goal since Tom Henderson said we'll be able to drag downed teammates

Though I also expect Enders to have an aneurism about this lmao

I expect it to be similar to squads dragging

Or it might even be like Arma's with a preset animation

Given the Tom Henderson info states this game is expected to be set in the late 2020's, early 2030s, I doubt our characters are wearing proto-plate carriers

You can drag someone by the shoulder straps or even the carry strap of their plate carrier

[fickle wharf]

the drag is a meme like in bfv it never came to be

[quiet shell]

DICE intended to have that in BFV, even had animations ready for it but it got cut from development

[fickle wharf]

source for the anims?

[quiet shell]

I ain't digging through 4 years of reddit posts lol

[fickle wharf]

[vital quail]

Bruh my brain cannot comprehend this boris i just saw

T1 boris at s14

But he just got his career high in damage to vehicles with 378 damage

[fickle wharf]

any damage counts to t1 boris

not just vehicles

[vital quail]

I know but it just seems wild to play boris that much and that be the highest against vehicles so far

I guess if they have only played tdm or something it makes sense

[fickle wharf]

dont think the career best tracked anything from before it

[pine roost]

doesn't mean the whole game will take on a realistic approach. Teammate dragging is something I know i'd appreciate in certain scenarios but it's gotta be balanced right

[pine roost]

honestly just what we have now. Best of all worlds in my eyes

[mossy badge]

oh please no

dont do the current gunplay its totally garbage

[pine roost]

you've got spread for distance control, random horizontal for some randomness added to recoil but fixed vertical for constency

[mossy badge]

they must improve on gunplay

[pine roost]

it's literally the same as what has been used in bf for decades so that's a strange take

aside from v

[mossy badge]

gunplay , gun customization both and animations they must improve on it

[pine roost]

animations sure, but don't just be boring and replicate what cod does

[brittle wind]

I want BFV in a modern setting

[pine roost]

it gets old when everything just has the same animation style

[mossy badge]

i am not saying that do what cod does i am saying improving on it

[pine roost]

the number of times i've seen games do the 'turn to the side, look, turn again, turn around, pause, rotate more, turn back' for its inspect animation is insane post mw2019

[mossy badge]

make guns feels and sound good

[pine roost]

not saying that's what you meant, its just the industry as a whole likes to copy the style they go for

[mossy badge]

what people love others will do it

but they can be unique by adding something of their own

[brittle wind]

What BF SHOULDN'T have: Gunsmith

[mossy badge]

but yes i dont want to see the current 2042 gunplay it is just so cheap and awful

guns feels so bad

[brittle wind]

That's 90% sound

416 feels amazing

Because it uses BF3 sounds

2042's weapons sounds like nerf guns

[pine roost]

I don't care much about attachments as I always just run the same thing all the time but I hate it to no end when somebody's take on 'weapon customisation' is to just slap on huge negatives on everything to try and give them more personality or something

[brittle wind]

I care because it's boring and generic, everyone uses same setup recommended to them by the youtubers, you shouldn't have the option to make no recoil, low TTK guns with 50 round drum mags

[pine roost]

as in the ghost recon expansion?

desert storm

oh wait no that's desert siege

my bad

[brittle wind]

I mean gameplay, I want to have BFV's movement, gunplay(with more spread but less recoil), class system, commander system etc.

Yeah

[pine roost]

i'd mostly be down for that but I still don't like v's spread system

I know why you like it but i'm just not the biggest fan

[brittle wind]

That's why I think they should reduce recoil but increase spread

[pine roost]

yeah I can get by that, if they keep the crosshair tied to screen centre

it confused me slightly when 2042 went from insane spread to next to none and people went from 'hose spread' to 'laser beams' in discussions. There is a middle ground there

but of course the map design has a huge influence on how we percieve spread due to engagement distances so that'll have a big part in it too

[brittle wind]

Spread should kick in depending on the range imo

Below 50 meters on ARs for example, no spread just recoil

Above 50 meters, spread should kick in after 5-6 shots

So you have to either get close to the enemy or learn to burst

[pine roost]

that sounds like a rather conviluted method that the angular nature of recoil and spread solves itself

[brittle wind]

Spread created a nice skill floor in BF3-4 which isn't available on BFV

Recoil is far easier to control

[vocal tusk]

Its technically identical to control, unless you mean set recoil patterms

Spread is insanely easy to control tho

Easier than mastering each weapons recoil in something like CS

[brittle wind]

Most people still can't shoot people in front of them with spread though

[vocal tusk]

How would extra recoil help in this instance?

[brittle wind]

People are used to recoil so when they go full auto they expect to shoot anything they see as long as they control the recoil

[vocal tusk]

For extra recoil to work at range and in CQC, it would need to be substantial

[brittle wind]

With spread you can't do that, you need to tap fire or go for short bursts

[pine roost]

2x pubg's recoil

[vocal tusk]

lol

So TLDR, you want 2042 to be like Delta force. Where RPM is king haha

[brittle wind]

DF doesn't have spread though

[chilly jacinth]

DF doesn't even have recoil

[brittle wind]

That's why people laser beam everyone as long as they can see them

[pine roost]

it has a system that basically acts the same way

[vocal tusk]

Recoil so as soon as a player master recoil, they can beam others across the map.

[pine roost]

it's visual recoil induces the same effect

[brittle wind]

Yeah

[chilly jacinth]

You can build any gun to literally not even move

[vocal tusk]

DF has recoil, but you can remove it and control the upwards recoil that weapons are lasers

thats why DF also NEEDs spread

[brittle wind]

I'm defending spread though not recoil I think you misunderstood me

[chilly jacinth]

Probably the worst of all worlds in terms of gunplay and customisation

[vocal tusk]

the customization in DF is great. Progress actually leads to better weapons and different behavior for those weapons. They just become too accurate

[frozen loom]

[pine roost]

speaking of delta force, how do I disable chromatic aberration

[vocal tusk]

the gunsmithing is probably the only good thing about that game

[pine roost]

nobody in their official discord seems to know how

[brittle wind]

I dislike gunsmithing

Exactly because you can create no recoil weapons

Weapons should have natural advantages and disadvantages

[vocal tusk]

But spread that only kicks in past X range sounds weird. It would be very hard judge moment to moment

Spread solves 90% of the weapon accuracy issues DF has TBH

[brittle wind]

Spread shouldn't kick in when you are shooting to an enemy 20 meters in front of you though

[vocal tusk]

Spread doesnt kick in tho, the bullets deviate once you auto fire past X threshold

[brittle wind]

Yeah

[vocal tusk]

Making it distance based sounds terrible

[brittle wind]

Not really

[pine roost]

also why bother making it spread past a certain distance when up close they'll all land anyway

[vocal tusk]

It absolutely does

[pine roost]

like, what's the point

[vocal tusk]

Exactly

[brittle wind]

They won't all land though

[vocal tusk]

Like inside 20m, you basically have no spread anyway as is

[brittle wind]

That's why people don't like spread

[pine roost]

then you aren't close enough

[vocal tusk]

I dont think most people even understand what spread does for them tho

If there wasnt spread, sure YOU would land shots easier, but so do all other players, regardless of range

And making it distance based sounds terrible, because say you start it at 50m...how does it work exactly. Past 50m your bullets start to deviate, even if you burst? How do you control your long range fire fights?

[chilly jacinth]

Sounds wack to even try to implement

[vocal tusk]

This annoyingly sounds like something DICE would try to do tho, like the terrible sweetspot mechanics from BF1

[devout socket]

just got the ak5c...finally!

[chilly jacinth]

Enjoy

[vocal tusk]

My ideal system would be patern based recoil, with a bit of spread on mag dump.

[chilly jacinth]

So kinda what we have

[vocal tusk]

How is their gunplay set up?

2042 doesnt have patterns of recoil

[devout socket]

@brittle wind what build were you using for the ak5c?

[vocal tusk]

It has max and min horizontal recoil, but the bullets dont shoot in a defined patern. BF3 had a pretty nice system. It wasnt full patern, but it had readable and counterable recoil directions

[chilly jacinth]

It's not completely random

[vocal tusk]

Like m16A3 in BF3 was up and to the left, so you could learn to use that weapon better

[chilly jacinth]

Anyways hopefully they actually improve on the current gunplay we have instead of trying something else again

[pine roost]

I do really like the system in place now to be frank. Good balance of reliability and randomness to keep distances in check

[vocal tusk]

I like the current gunplay TBH. It doesnt need much changed

[pine roost]

it's just that when you bring up gunplay 70% of the community will start talking about visuals and sounds over actual mechanics

[vocal tusk]

I like the plus system from a gameplay perspective, but I think it kinda ruins weapon crafting and balance a bit

[brittle wind]

Type 4, Subsonic, Masterkey

[vocal tusk]

If plus system returns, I think it should only allow adding a supressor and a different sight...if at all

[brittle wind]

Spread should start at 50 meters after let's say 5-6 bullets, bursts/tapfire should control it.

[vocal tusk]

Sounds awful

[pine roost]

I’ll say it was nice having about 3 backpacks of ammo though

[chilly jacinth]

Just a squads worth of ammo up your ass

[brittle wind]

I hope plus system stays because it would prevent DICE to make another generic gunsmith

[pine roost]

It just hyper’s extended banana mags all over again

[brittle wind]

But mags shouldn't be interchangable

[vocal tusk]

2042s is worse than generic tho

[brittle wind]

Nah

Mags are the issue

[vocal tusk]

Its a system made to make you actively not engage with building weapons

[brittle wind]

Instead of mags there should be accessory segment

Like in BF4

[vocal tusk]

Because you get all attachments > add the 12 best ones to the weapon, > never have to customizze that weapon again

[brittle wind]

Bruh, no one engages with that, everyone copies latest meta youtuber build

[pine roost]

I’d be hunky-dory if the whole plus system got removed to be honest

Unless maps are crazy big again in which case maybe I’d be alright with swapping between 1 other scope

[vocal tusk]

There is zero risk/reward with 2042s system, cos you never have to risk not using a supressor, or a different mag, or a longer range scope...cos you can instantly just swap to gain the advantage in any given situation.

[brittle wind]

2042's weapons are still balanced, everyone uses same 3 weapons on gunsmith games

Because you don't need to deviate from meta

[vocal tusk]

Its a system built off min/max instead of risk/reward.

[pine roost]

I can sort of understand the notion that if you take that away people will try to make the build that covers all bases, steering towards one more unified build, but it’s a pick your poison type situation

[vocal tusk]

the plus system is a symptom of the games design at launch, and the games hope that the extraction part would be the main focus. It makes total sense to have the plus system in Hazard Zone, where its single elimination. But in a mode where its respawn based...it just dilutes the actual gun building

[pine roost]

I still give them the benefit of the doubt that it wasn’t based initially on a br / extraction type mode, but it still slots in with their agency over restriction mantra

[brittle wind]

I think plus system will return if they make another BR or extraction mode

Issue with plus system isn't the lack of attachments, it's issue is specifically mag swap

[vocal tusk]

I would be fine with plus system returning tho if it was just changing barrel/scope. there is such a thing as too much freedom, which we also saw at launch with no class locked weapons/gadgets

[brittle wind]

If you limit all weapons to have fixed mags then plus system won't have an issue

[pine roost]

just scope would achieve a similar goal without going too far

[brittle wind]

In BO6 or DF or in Tarkov there is no reason to use high mag weapons, you can just slap on a drum mag to any SMG

[vocal tusk]

But then you have players able to swap to grenade launchers/underbarrel shotguns

[brittle wind]

That's not an issue imo

Grenade launchers gives you like 2 grenades per launcher

1 for incendiary

[chilly jacinth]

It kinda is when you don't know if they can oneshot you or not

[brittle wind]

You won't be able to solo a tank with 3 grenade launchers

[devout socket]

hmm

[vocal tusk]

What 2042 tried to do with high capacity mags was so dumb in hindsight haha

[devout socket]

I'm not that great of a cqb guy... I think I'll use that with something else for range instead of the masterkey. thanks!

[brittle wind]

If you aren't going for CQB you don't need suppressor

Or subsonic

Just make it a high power build

[chilly jacinth]

Those still help at range

[vocal tusk]

Like all they need to do is double or 1.5x the reload time on higher cap mags...that way its risk reward. Not make them have slower ADS hahga

[brittle wind]

Not really

[chilly jacinth]

Cause folk won't know where you're shooting em from

[brittle wind]

Stealth is still more important in CQC

I use that build to flank

Behind enemy lines

[vocal tusk]

If you need to rely on players not seeing your directional markers, then youre probably dead already

Subsonic is an example of an ammo type done right tho

[brittle wind]

Ammo types are the issue with plus system like I said not the 4 attachments limit

BF4 had the same system but with accessories instead of ammo types

It worked wonders

[vocal tusk]

They could have ruined it by adding extended subsonic ammo mags, but instead its the risk of having a small standard damage mag, for the reward of having minimap and tracer stealth

But there is legit zero actual downside to running drum or extended versions of mags on any weapon

[brittle wind]

Yeah

That's why mags should be fixed

[vocal tusk]

Just use whatever has more bullets when it comes to standard and high power ammo

[brittle wind]

There would be a reason to use P90 instead of drum mag K30

[chilly jacinth]

The biggest downside for em isn't even the ads speed penalty

it's the reload

[vocal tusk]

That was removed also

[brittle wind]

Speed is based on ammo type to

[vocal tusk]

Reload difference is so small it doesnt matter, just always use the extendeds

[brittle wind]

AM40 has an insane reload speed for subsonic for example

But when you use extended standard then it's a lot slower

[next onyx]

Recoil should worsen over time.

I'm on baord with that idea.

[white forge]

boy

[pine roost]

would be interested in seeing how that feels

[white forge]

does battlefield still make u pay for custom servers?

like in BF4

[vocal tusk]

No, you can make a server and host it for free

Not sure how persistent server hosting is handled ATM, with there being no premium season pass

There are no third party servers tho

[white forge]

was just thinking about the state of battlefield and things they could do to fix it in their next game

[pine roost]

oh they didn't keep server passes going?

I figured they'd keep a repeated server pass after they dropped the actual passes

[devout socket]

when you play assault, do y'all mainly use a holo?

[chilly jacinth]

Always red dot

[white forge]

Everyone loved battlefield 4 so I think they should see what worked in that game and base their next game off that , while eliminating the things people hate about the battlefields after it

[devout socket]

how do you see the bastards then?

[chilly jacinth]

With my eyes

[white forge]

another suggestion would be to create a competitve battlefield mode, fps gamers are ranked addicts

[vocal tusk]

they tried, players didnt want it

[devout socket]

beter eyes then me then 🥲

[vocal tusk]

IMO the last thing they should do is try to make BF a competitive eSports game

[white forge]

I dont think ranked would be the issue, more players like ranked in an FPS game than not

[white forge]

then battlefield will stay in its slump

[vocal tusk]

People dont even play the ranked modes in COD

[white forge]

Its the only mode I like in cod now

[vocal tusk]

What would ranked even bring...adding SBMM?

[white forge]

thats what ranked is

[vocal tusk]

No thanks

[white forge]

they dont need to put it in the non ranked mode...lmao

[vocal tusk]

SO that will confirm that noone will play it in a BF game

[white forge]

No because sbmm is only ranked

which you can choose not to play

[vocal tusk]

So no one wil play it

[white forge]

No because thats what ranked is in every game

[limpid pond]

Ranked adds a competitive aspect that you can only obtain through ranked. What I mean by that is it cuts out alot of the cheese from multi-player and puts everyone on a level playground with same weapons and attachments so essentially you rely on skill instead of cheese

[white forge]

climbing ranks

[limpid pond]

Issue is in cod past diamond there's cheaters out the rear now

[vocal tusk]

Like..."hmm...what will I play for fun...a mode where im placed with players on a similar level, where I need to sweat my ass off to win...or the casual mode where its players oif different skill levels"

[limpid pond]

It's already hard enough being a mnk player in cod but when I hit crim almost every game I played had cheaters in it.

[vocal tusk]

99% of players will chose the non ranked mode

[white forge]

CSGO ?

[white forge]

no

[chilly jacinth]

The casual modes are still popular even in cs

[vocal tusk]

No thanks...CS isnt the right formula for BF

[chilly jacinth]

even though it's centered around comp

[white forge]

it would give players the option

Have something for every type of player

if you want more players

otherwise the shit will stay dead

[chilly jacinth]

It's not dead though

[vocal tusk]

BF doesnt need competitive modes or ranked to be a success

[chilly jacinth]

capturing the competetive audience that is none existent shouldn't be the goal

[vocal tusk]

It needs to not be a fucking mess at launch

and not need to spend 2 years remaking the core and maps lol

[white forge]

Just do everything battlefield 4 did and add ranked simple

[pine roost]

I play games with the intent to improve as best I can, self critiquing and being competitive with myself, and even I don't want ranked

I want to get better at battlefield, not at a 5v5 battlefield

[white forge]

you need to give players a reason to stick around

[brittle wind]

This

[white forge]

Ranked, skins, are some of the main reasons

[brittle wind]

Ranked BF is essentially Finals

[white forge]

players stick around, they spend money so they stick around since they paid for skins

[limpid pond]

Ranked battlefield would be interesting because at that point it's not battlefield. You'd have to use a separate formula instead of big map bf

[chilly jacinth]

If you've seen any comp gameplay from bf3 or 4

you know that it ain't good

[white forge]

Why would I play battlefield over GTA 6 ?

[vocal tusk]

You dont need ranked to have players stick around. You need a game built around server persistence, meeting, friending and playing with other players consistently, and community/social and platoons systems integrated into the game.

[brittle wind]

I don't like GTA so I will play BF instead

RDR2 was a disappointment for me

[vocal tusk]

Why would I played ranked Battlefield over GTA6?

[white forge]

if you dont play ranked obviously you wouldnt

[limpid pond]

Yeah I feel Like bf ranked would have to be more along the lines of a search and destroy mode like csgo or how fortnite just did that ballistic mode. Or you would have to have a Frontlines comp mode only but on a smaller narrow map with longer respawn times so you can't spam it and certain weapons cheesed off.

[brittle wind]

Ranked wouldn't even work with current BF maps

[vocal tusk]

How do you define a ranking, wins or performance?

[white forge]

They would design ranked a bit differently

[chilly jacinth]

The small scale event modes in 2042 are essentially them experimenting with comp tbh

[limpid pond]

It's have to be a combination imo. Wins give you the most points but individual performance should contribute. No reason I should drop 80 kills to win while my teammate go 10 and 30 and we end up with the same points

They would need to add a new Statline feature that the computer can read and distribute points from a pool to the whole team

That way if your on the enemy team and you're carrying super hard bit still lose you're not being punished to the point where you feel it's useless

[vocal tusk]

BF core modes wouldnt even work in ranked as others said already. There are too many actions that help your team/squad, but might not actually win you the game, or gain you rank/score. BF by design is pretty open, chaotic and random. Trying to shoehorn a ranked mode in would be an uber waste of their time for the next game, and would almost make battlefield not feel like battlefield.

[brittle wind]

Ranked BF would play like a worse version of Finals

They should instead improve Portal imo

I want 2142

[chilly jacinth]

I honestly feel like they will abandon portal for the next game

[vocal tusk]

Keep the bones of what portal is for this game...but abandon the "Different eras" part

[pine roost]

the editor is super cool

[chilly jacinth]

An amalgamation of all bf games would be a cool concept

as just an entire game

[pine roost]

but that language processing development tool they showed could be an addition to it, if it doesn't end up just being a purely internal tool

[vocal tusk]

Yeah, keep that, and the easy to host/start a server part, but polish it. the different eras thing made little sense, when you consider that aportal stuff had to be ported over to even work inside 2042s era arsenal

[brittle wind]

It would take lots of time to make 2142 work in portal honestly

Mechs and titan mode would just take lots of time

[vocal tusk]

It wouldnt work TBH. In the same way 1942 vs 2042 doesnt work

[pine roost]

i will completely break character and say something completely unique, titanfall battlefield when?

[brittle wind]

BF2143

[white forge]

that would save it

[brittle wind]

In 2030

[white forge]

Giant robots and skyscrapers, with weather, and destructible battlfields enhanced by new tech

[pine roost]

it's not something i'm seriously asking for but i'm just starved for titanfall stuff

[brittle wind]

I actually want to see 2143

With jetpacks

They shouldn't copy titanfall's entire movement though

[white forge]

starwars

[brittle wind]

Make it more grounded

[brittle wind]

Basically yeah

It would play like battlefront

Without heros

[white forge]

starwars battlefront was good but didnt have ranked so I went to csgo

[vital quail]

Did you expect it to have a ranked mode lol

[vocal tusk]

lmao...what a statement

[pine roost]

wouldn't feel anything like it if it lacked it's air strafe, lurch and momentum. Would rather not have it than a system that aims to reach it but falls short

[white forge]

it was a gift

at the time

[vocal tusk]

Roblox squid game just wasnt for me, so I went with starcraft 2!!

[white forge]

I was a kid when I played battlefield 4 and didnt care about ranked

now I probably wouldnt play it

[vital quail]

You know video games are supposed to be fun right

[brittle wind]

Fun doesn't matter, emblem on the left of your playertag matters

https://youtu.be/lnlA2rCHJHY?si=ra4BRiXWl7ZnCMQa

Best classic BF theme btw

[pine roost]

playing ranked can be fun if that's what you're after

[white forge]

I still like non ranked stuff just not as much. Skyrim, Borderlands, Fallout

[pine roost]

I've just sort of chosen to avoid team based comp games because the nature of random teammates just makes it unfun

[white forge]

I think battlefields problem is the gaming audience changed too much

[naive ember]

What's the point of ranked?

[white forge]

same with halo

[pine roost]

battlefield's problem is that the last game launched rubbish

[white forge]

eh

[pine roost]

To feel rewarded for spending time developing your understanding of its systems and improving

[white forge]

Battlefield hasnt hit the same since 4

[pine roost]

I don't like it cause relying on the competancy of teammates is just not a fun time

would rather play a casual mode with a competitive mindset than an actual comp mode

[white forge]

battlefield isnt bad just other games id play before it

not my 1st choice

I mean cod had bad launches too and its still thriving

[brittle wind]

Halo had ranked since Halo 2

[pine roost]

tbf though fps games as a whole haven't been too hot either

it's gotten to the point where i'm back playing overwatch

[vocal tusk]

COD never released a game so bad all its release maps had to be remade

[white forge]

I mean its still outdated in other ways, kids like skins and battlepasses now

[pine roost]

kinda bummed infinite didn't do well, it was super fun

[chilly jacinth]

Surely next game is good

[vocal tusk]

Infinite wasnt even bad...it just got no content for so long

[white forge]

also its an xbox exclusive and Playstation is a bit more popular

[chilly jacinth]

It's on pc too

[pine roost]

had a tonne of fun with that one

splitgate too, absolute blast

[chilly jacinth]

Gameplay good, content bad and terrible hit detection

and mid campaign

[white forge]

yes

[brittle wind]

CoD isn't even the main mode

Main mode is warzone

Without warzone CoD would've declined too

[white forge]

maybe

[brittle wind]

People buy CoD to level up their weapons for warzone

[white forge]

I dont like battle royales tbh

[brittle wind]

Infinite had them and failed too, it also had same aim assist as CoD, if not more OP, also with similar MMR matchmaking. It's not that simple.

[white forge]

just couldn't keep up with the times

[vocal tusk]

Ive been enjoying DayZ community servers a lot recently

[white forge]

probably too difficult too, I dont like halo too much because it just feel weird

[pine roost]

I’ve been enjoying suffering with two uni assignments due on the same day

[brittle wind]

Spartan armor in lore: iron man suit + crysis nanosuit
Spartan armor in game: Just a recharging shield

This is my biggest issue with Halo, it's just too slow 🤷

But wanting to make it faster would just make it not-Halo

That's why Halo fans hates sprint

[naive ember]

Halo is dead

[brittle wind]

Yeah

[naive ember]

Apex too eventually

[brittle wind]

CoD might die too

BO6 already lost half it's players since launch

[chilly jacinth]

Console players still play that shit religiously

[naive ember]

It's always fun camping the wz buy stations

Hear them get angry

1 guy even threatened me

[mossy badge]

it will never die until acti stop making call of duty

you may see decline in playerbase

Call of duty 24 hour peak - 111,784

it aint dying

[brittle wind]

Activision was considering pulling the plug on wz back in wz 2.0 era

Due to decrease in players

According to anonymous sources

BO6's drop is 2.5 times more than that

I don't think CoD will die but it will become smaller than it is

More people were playing WZ2.0 too. 300K concurrent players or something, not 100K among 4 games.

[chilly jacinth]

You're talking to the biggest cod shill to ever walk this earth fyi

[brittle wind]

Oh okay lol

[mossy badge]

all i am saying is that it isnt dying anytime soon

[brittle wind]

Next year it might lol

If BF BR rumors are true

It would add to Zampella's KD ratio alongside Apex

[mossy badge]

battlefield cant kill cod and cod cant kill battlefield

[mossy badge]

battlefield has tried it with firestorm result failed
battlefield has tried extraction shooter result failed
attempt 2025 lets see what happens

[brittle wind]

You can't make a P2P BR and expect it to be success in post Fortnite era

Breakout was a failure too but Warzone was a success

Extraction shooters can be P2P but only because Tarkov is P2P

If someone else makes a good F2P Tarkov then extraction shooters also has to be F2P

[mossy badge]

na you thinking that if battlefield will have a br it will kill cod

as if it didnt have with firestorm

[brittle wind]

If it's a F2P BR then there is a chance

[mossy badge]

and firestorm failed

[brittle wind]

If it's a P2P then there is no chance

Firestorm was P2P

Blackout was also P2P and it was also a failure

[mossy badge]

we will see

[abstract night]

Honestly if battlefield didn’t die with 2042 CoD certainly isn’t going anywhere as a much bigger and in many ways better or at least more renowned franchise

BF really does not need a BR considering both attempts failed. I know they were paid but a F2P BR would also take time and resources away from the core gamemodes of BF. The last thing the franchise needs is to keep trying to copy the success of others at the cost of its own core design

[patent pivot]

And bring back better voice acting

That's an important factor

[abstract night]

It’s probably a generational thing I guess

I grew up with the og cod and battlefield games where that was clearly a priority with good visuals and sound design/voice acting

Newer kids are used to whatever Fortnite irreparably did to fps as a whole

[patent pivot]

og Mw2 was before bo1

[abstract night]

Treyarch over blops games, sledge was over waw, IW over og mw trilogy

I’d respect sledge if they made interesting alt ww2 games or AW2 as opposed to whatever they did with mw23

[mental delta]

To me there's definitely something to play with serious aspect as well

A lot of people are figuring out COD is cringe and are seeking a more grounded game

BF can be that to me

[abstract night]

I will give bf this: it has always been more grounded. But the differences are narrowing with how 2042 went with “specialists”

So I’m pretty concerned for the future

[brittle wind]

They already confirmed BF6 won't have specialists

But I fear it might have unicorn skins

Community had to give huge backlash to leaked skins in order for them to not release stuff like santa boris lol

[patent pivot]

And will probably include cringe voice lines with the skin

[brittle wind]

I'm fine with elite skins

Ilse looks cool af

2042's current state is pretty good imo in terms of skins

Most outlandish one is cyborg Irish but even that fits

Into the setting

Depends on the campaign

If campaign is good and people find likable characters

They might sell them as skins later on

[devout socket]

I swear that wrecking snipers again and again in a "sniper duel" has got to be one of the most satisfying things to do in this game

[gentle kernel]

I have taken up the noble role of jump shotting.

[patent pivot]

Meh

[frozen loom]

Buff the concussion grenades by pairing it with a launcher.

[inland bolt]

Can you guys fix the sprint bug before you fully stop paying any attention to this game?

Sprinting constantly bugs out and my character is just walking and nothing will fix it until my character just randomly starts sprinting again 1-2 minutes later or I have to redeploy/die.

[vital quail]

I'll get to work on it ASAP

[naive ember]

Redeploy then it's not like your kd is good anyway

[next onyx]

Don't be an ass.

[ionic shuttle]

Battlefield 2042 2025

[limpid pond]

maybe its your controller bro

[brittle wind]

Finally got Falck T1

Started playing as Dozer for the rest of the match and he's extremely fun lol

Swapping to a shield in front of the enemy 5 meters in front of me makes them run away

What's a good AR for CQC besides AM40?

Sfar is mediocre in CQC

Good in mid-long ranges

[rocky gust]

I have never had that issue while playing pc

If anything, i always do a reinstallation to fix it, and 9/10 it works

[rocky gust]

AEK and m5 short barrel

[brittle wind]

Looked at Sorrow's spreadsheet and answer seems to be GEW or ACWR

ACWR has the best TTK up to 20 meters

[rocky gust]

GEW, well, if you hit all your shots theoretically it does do well

But if you miss a few rounds, given its rpm, can be more punishing

[brittle wind]

I will try a subsonic GEW build

[rocky gust]

Everyone got their taste though so puck what you like

I prefer the gew or m5

[echo yew]

Frontlines is peak

[frozen loom]

My only squadmate decided to try to snipe from the back of our spawn across the map the entire game.

On Orbital.

So, I brought out a MAV and parked it in his line of sight.

The entire match.

And deploying smokes.

[kindred flint]

holy shit the svd is sooo fucking trash stock

[brittle wind]

I dislike SVD and M39 due to insane visual recoil they have

[kindred flint]

fucking piece of shit vehicles on a discarded 64p match

just getting shot up by a ram camping the edge of the map, or an apache because our AA is camping too

and the svd cant fight its say out of a wet paper bag compared to the svk right now

[wispy rampart]

@viscid trout @gilded atlas @dire stirrup need a fourth? Thinking of hopping on

[viscid trout]

im taking a break after this one but welcome to join us
