[sullen folio]

Just go settings

[thin herald]

yes

[sullen folio]

Then go uh display or wtv

[thin herald]

idk man i have searched it through and out and still didnt find xd for 10 minutes

[sullen folio]

And crosshair settings should show

[thin herald]

ok

[sullen folio]

Then watch a YouTube thing

[thin herald]

oh i though you knew exactly, i just watched multiple guides but none of them separately mentioned this

or maybe i missed

but it would be much easier if someone could say exactly what to turn off(

[chilly jacinth]

Unfortunately he isn't

[merry heart]

Okay Mister I'm above everyone else

[echo vale]

GM

[viral rune]

Is there a lore reason why Russian stealth heli is called YG-99 and not by manufacturer's name (e.g. Ka or Mi)?

[honest lily]

how are you so far in the event already (i grinded for several hours but i am at level 5)

[modest ivy]

28, but I bought the accelerated pass

[brittle wind]

I have like 4-5 tiers left to finish it

Grinded shit ton of rush override though

[honest lily]

i wish battlefield would make this event like the normal weekly unlockables

then it would be much easier to unlock the stuff

[lean sandal]

Quick question, i've been playing as Rao today. Started throwing proxy scaners and few times i started seeing red outline of enemies trough smoke. Is this how they work or it was some other operators ability?

[mortal horizon]

Rush override gives stupid XP and is great for grinding masteries

Might finally get crawford to T1

[mental laurel]

OK, picked up Hardline, stuck on throwing a shell casing to distract. I am on PC, and NOWHERE does it have listed what key to use.

Anyone know?

[solid imp]

When you hack an enemy player it lights up both that player and the others surrounding them within a 10m (?) radius for a second or two and spots them on the map for the whole team

[jade flame]

Its your ability

When you scan u also see others

Smoke + scan is your strat

If Its cq, you hack the planes tanks or whatever u can find

Preach to this

There is no best tbh

Although allrounders exisy

Sfar, ak5c, k30, pp29,ac9, fuck lmgs, snipers are just whatever. You got 2 option anyway

M5 is allround ok gun

Sfar is the biggest contender

It has same ttk with m5 and has better range

[pearl ridge]

Rao's inherent trait spots enemies that hit you. You're probably catching strays

[mortal horizon]

YOLO fire through the smoke

[wide shore]

Just completed all the weeklies, and then played a few rounds with the crazy amount of XP boosters I had

Weeklies give enough dots for 5 whole levels. And that doesn’t include all the extra dots you get from just playing the game nd getting xp.

[cobalt tinsel]

BF2042 noob here. Can someone tell me why I'm almost always detected (position revealed) on the map?

Is it when I shoot or run that my position is revealed? Or because someone sees me and it reveals my position to everyone? Or perhaps a drone is looking at me?

[chilly jacinth]

There's a billion things that can spot you

[cobalt tinsel]

Even if I hide behind an object, my position is almost instantly revealed and someone comes to kill me.

[cobalt tinsel]

Well, I'm having a hard time spoting people; they don't. Kinda embarrassing... 😞

[jade flame]

well tru

i only use pp29 too xd

[solid imp]

Also depends on the mode.. with infantry-only modes you'll see more Paik. In BT you'll see more Rao/Blasco with the hacks, tugs and blasco blocker since enemies tend to funnel through smaller areas.

In CQ you probably won't get randomly spotted behind something as much

[dreamy mason]

Did you put your cross hair on them 🙂

[brittle wind]

Damn... People are sweating in new PVE mode instead of farming bots 🤣

[rain violet]

Shooting without a suppressor reveals you on the minimap, spotting, TUGS/Rao hack/Paik/Casper drone also reveal you

[brittle wind]

You either shot a Rao player or they hacked you

This indicator only happens with Rao

Wish happened with all kinds of spotting

[warm sequoia]

why my stats after restarting the game are reseting? its kinda anoying

[brittle wind]

Tried AN94

It's surprisingly decent tbh

I dunno what's the issue with it

Far better than AC42 that's for sure

[chilly dawn]

After like 15 hours I have to admit BF 2042 is pretty great. But they should have just called it BF 4 1/2 as it's really the graphics update to it 👍

now all we need is a VR mod 👀

[sweet yarrow]

Wassup guys

How’s it going?

[chilly dawn]

my kill tracker. had 180+ kills yesterday lmao

hru?

[sweet yarrow]

I’m good, chilling about to head out for my birthday

[sweet yarrow]

Heck yeah!

[chilly dawn]

Happy Birthday mate 🎂 🥂

[lean vapor]

Did you try the AN?

[brittle wind]

I did, it's decent

It's great in 2 burst range tbh

[quiet sonnet]

theres a lot of better weapons

[sour meadow]

jesus ch rist 2042 is vehicle hell

playing anything except engineer is a straight clownshow

you are at such a huge disadvantage

[brittle wind]

It might be the best portal AR tbh

I tried M16 too and spread makes it unusable

Especially in ranges it was supposed to excel at

And in close range there are better options

[quiet sonnet]

just play infantry based modes then

[sour meadow]

why play battlefield just for infantry

i don't mind some vehicles

[quiet sonnet]

its more fun

[sour meadow]

but the vehicle spam is ridiculous

[quiet sonnet]

less rng factors

gunfights are more fun

maps are more likely more fun to play around

i just dont really enjoy having randoms 360 around me from 200 meters away spamming every wep and gadget at you because they can and they are too lazy to play the game

[cobalt tinsel]

No

[pine roost]

Read whatever emails they send you

[rare rampart]

Fs

[dreamy mason]

Dont Talk about Fight Culb

[pine roost]

Not only is this not the labs chat but nobody here has or is allowed to discuss the playtest itself, we can’t help

It basically is fight club lol

[dreamy mason]

jCant spell

[merry heart]

Say no to 3D spotting.

[brittle wind]

[merry heart]

Any heli pilots in here? Was wondering what sensitivity you peeps use.

I swear I max mine and feels like I'm trying to turn a heavy field cannon in BF1.

[pine roost]

believe mine's on 10

800 dpi

[merry heart]

Alright I'll try that thanks

[crimson quartz]

I seem to have a technical issue where the friends on both the EA app and in 2042 do not appear online even when they are so we cannot see each other online in spite of trying to be visible

What is the correct route of seeking assistance for this?

[remote kiln]

this is a common issue, sometimes the EA app will randomly decide to disconnect it's association with the game, verifying the game files normally resolves it

if you are using steam make sure you don't have the EA (full) app installed, if so uninstall it then verify it

[opal salmon]

we got playable Battlefield 6 before GTA 6

[acoustic seal]

i can't wait until the origin api finally gets turned off so i can stop thinking about battlefield

just a month away!

[opal salmon]

that origin shit pisses me off
i play alot on internet cafe and i dont know if any of you experience it since the pc there are setup to be resetted to whatever state it was prior, so just happens they all always revert to origin launchers setup and need to redownload EA app which takes half of of my rent time playing

[acoustic seal]

oh

i just refuse to use the ea app because it's putrid dogshit

starting april 17th i finally have permission from ea to never think about this dead franchise again

i won't even be able to buy the new game even if i wanted to! so exciting

[opal salmon]

the very idea of launcher just to launch a game is stupid, especially when for whatever reason it just needs to update, reload and uninstall the app and then reboot the system just to launch the damn game. it doesnt take into accounts peoples time

very evident in internet cafe, where time is money, i wish my country internet isnt so shit that internet cafe is the only place for reliable online gaming

[acoustic seal]

that's an issue you need to take up with whoever made the pc image

[opal salmon]

its all the combination of pc windows jank, launcher app jank and everything else. i study information tech in uni and even i tried setting up my own self contained everything ready-to-play virtual machines or whatever you want to call it like in the internet cafe, the launcher and how its setup just refuse to start the games instantly

the launcher just needs to takes it sweet time and the game needs to take it as well

[echo yew]

jesus ch rist 2042 is vehicle hell

there are no good first person shooter games in 2025.

[brittle wind]

Man portal ARs are 💩

[indigo portal]

you guys want some opsec about the AN that makes it one of the best ARs in the game bc its bugged

[brittle wind]

Only ACWR, A91 and AN94 are decent

[indigo portal]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/906771685305368616/1352658293771993160/image-37.png?ex=67ded0b4&is=67dd7f34&hm=d02e2adc9c7ff7de1454c404889f55b74479f94f910a91a96d06768e5ab978b7&

the hyperburst in full auto doesnt have a delay, so spamming trigger in full auto fires faster than normal FA 😭

brings the 20meters TTK down to 200ms :3

[steady salmon]

Is there a scope for sniper that doesnt glint?

[vital quail]

6x and up has glint

[stable edge]

are the servers buggy today or is it my terrible internet?

[indigo portal]

im pretty sure its 5x and up with glint and 4x and lower does not

the PSO russian 5x defo glints

[brittle wind]

I don't think it's a bug, I think burst mode has higher RPM by default

It's defo a skill cannon

Someone with good trigger finger can dominate lobbies with it

[indigo portal]

in full auto the first two bullets do hyperburst, and then revert to 650RPM full auto, but if you spam the trigger (in full auto mode) the hyperburst repeats with no trigger delay

in burst fire mode there is the forced trigger delay.

Magazine time to empty:
Burst: 3.41sec
Full Auto: 2.45sec
Autoburst: 2.01sec

its only just slower fire rate than the AEK by 30RPM when autobursting

the audio is broken and doesnt make it evidently clear that full auto has hyperburst

[brittle wind]

Full auto hyperburst has too much recoil tbh, regular burst mode is better imo

[indigo portal]

specifically up close hip fire or within the 20m 4hit range its really handy. its the fastest TTK AR in the game when doing autoburst

the next fastest is the G36 with standard issue ammo within 10m at 222ms

[autumn scroll]

last game i saw robots become RIP in 2 years. it was natural selection 2. they extract last money from players and then close project.

because battle aliens vs humans has nothing shared with robots.
events that increase only sales its new normality

[echo yew]

why did the game get worse with the update

that is one abysmal event

direct x error

what the fuck.

[brittle wind]

Is warhawk worst muzzle attachment you can use in 2042, only like 2 weapons benefits from it

[vital quail]

Check dms

[merry heart]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/730888929028341793/1352809105504604361/image.png?ex=67df5d28&is=67de0ba8&hm=0f2e15ab21f94b4b255967c0bf15d217d27ae693681492a24f32fa05b89f9126& this gun looking like a VCAR 😳

[solid imp]

I've been getting these as well 😦
also my AT mines are randomly despawning

[vital quail]

The ground is hungry and loves mines

[raw wadi]

Whassup sigma’s

[burnt halo]

anyone unlocked an94 yet?

is it any good

[vital quail]

Every time I've used it i just end up going back to the ak5c

The burst option is good but just too unreliable when there is more than 1 person nearby

[rain violet]

Think only the GEW and AC9 I've ever used it on, not a lot of weapons have much for horizontal recoil.

[brittle wind]

I was thinking of K30 and VHX lol

[rain violet]

K30 def has more horizontal on M&K but I find at the ranges I use it at i don't care about it often enough.

[burnt halo]

idk K30 feels like a laser beam that shoots feathers past 30m

[solid imp]

that's exactly where the damage dropoff begins for it- with standard rounds anyway

[brittle wind]

K30 just has too much recoil imo

I also tried using GEW with warhawk but spread makes it unusable imo

Just like 90% of the guns

[burnt halo]

GEW needs extended mag

[brittle wind]

Nah it's balanced

Other weapons are OP instead

[burnt halo]

personally i find most guns recoil to be easily controllable after a couple hours, i always stack accuracy attachments to minimize spread

[brittle wind]

Most guns has easy recoil, that's why warhawk is useless, but spread isn't so easily controllable in 2042

Only few guns with insane recoil patterns benefits from it(AEK, VHX, K30)

[solid imp]

VHX is weird because I'll go awhile without touching it and those first couple times I use it again it feels incredible, shooting laser beams, 0 spread, etc

but then after a few games it changes

[brittle wind]

Same tbh

I have no idea why it happens

[orchid tusk]

and what of wind?

hmmm?

[solid imp]

idk um... 5 knots from the west?

[orchid tusk]

precisely

thats why i go for 880 to the face

from 3m

no attachments required

[burnt halo]

VHX recoil is feels really consistent

sometimes i laser at 60m, and other times i can't hit shit at 30m

[merry heart]

didn't they nerf the VHX not too long ago?

[burnt halo]

I've noticed subsonic on AM40 takes 4 shots to kill vs 5 with standard, is there any other weapons where SS increases damage?

[idle lion]

EU took another W, they are now stopping companies like EA from hiding micro transactions with ingame currency.

[brittle wind]

MP9's SS increases damage range

50 meters yet still 5BTK

[rain violet]

Yeah VHX feels so inconsistent and I have no idea why

[idle lion]

Including FOMO

[burnt halo]

wish permanent battle passes (like in halo infinite) became the standad

[idle lion]

Seems the EUs gonna force companies to do that

Most important policy change is stopping companies from forcing players to purchase more virtual currency than needed for specific items

[brittle wind]

They should look at CoD's engagement optimized bundles too tbh, prices are fluctuating between players 🤣

[idle lion]

Wel they did mention this

Design purchase interfaces that don't exploit children's vulnerabilities or lack of understanding about money

So thats gonna affect CoD gard

Hard

[burnt halo]

I've never bought skins from games that don't have customizable portions tbh

like I'm not gonna buy a skin that i can't even change colors for free

[brittle wind]

I've never bought skins Unless we are talking about CS GO

[idle lion]

I have bought like 1 skin pack for the Crew 2 and a shit ton of cs skins

[burnt halo]

i run factory skin on all my gyns tbh

[brittle wind]

CS GO skins makes sense due to skin economy though 🤑 You can technically earn all the money you spent on it back

[dapper river]

stacking event pass XP tokens, double XP weekend, and premium event pass for 3.2x XP multiplier

[arctic tree]

lol earning money from video game content is basically working 10x below minimum wage

also why does the aek has insane recoil when it literally has a mechanism to counter it.

[pearl ridge]

I’ve noticed a spate of people using the M39 and getting kills way quicker than you’d expect from a dmr at short range

Like there’s suddenly a bunch of guys soloing entire squads in a matter of seconds

Something feels sus here. No other gun is doing this.

Also it’d be nice if they fixed the damn thing so it didn’t sound like a sniper

[merry heart]

same with the kriss lol

[idle lion]

Kriss has no rec

[merry heart]

yeah but most FPS games get it wrong lol

[vital quail]

ive noticed it being fired a lot faster

[pearl ridge]

Maybe there's a bug that unlocked its fire rate?

So it'll shoot as fast as you click

[vital quail]

its always has 2 shot potential but the recoil is really bad on it

[next onyx]

The m39 kills in two shot and having a trigger finger isn't exactly out of the ordinary.

[pearl ridge]

Okay so why now

[vital quail]

i think the sniper sound it gives is what really is annoying

[vital quail]

just used on controller and it didnt seem out of the ordinary fast but mouse may be easier to test

[next onyx]

I got a clip of the m39 somewhere

It doesn't fire super fast but that's because of how I've tuned around its fire rate.

[pearl ridge]

It hits too hard for its magazine size

[vital quail]

you would have to test now

[cedar hatch]

I have the feeling that "Doctor Falck in the House" is not popping. Is there any way to track my progress on it? I've done some breakthrough and I'm almost 100% certain that I've healed way more than 3000hp in a single round.

Also, is there any place that lists your successful hazard zone extractions?

[vital quail]

see if it comes up in hazard zone stats in #stats

[arctic tree]

looks like fortnite, call of duty and battlefield 3 +

[next onyx]

Just be original for once you.

[merry heart]

[manic pagoda]

Loving Rush Overdrive rn

Been having the most fun on this game in over a year

[merry heart]

that feel when you joined a CQ game and you see your team losting by 400 points

[merry heart]

that feel when you wanna play nightbird in a live match but some guy in said nightbird is out of bounds afk

[fickle wharf]

no fnb yesterday?

[merry heart]

yep another team that is full of casuuls

[merry heart]

no no not casuals

casuuls

that feel when your team isn't taking out the wildcat

lol jets firing guided missiles without no yellow warning first. is that normal?

[fickle wharf]

radars
game has barely any time to warn you about them if they are shot really close

[merry heart]

oh so thats what those are huh

neat thanks

[vital quail]

they were in bf4 so nothing new

good against draugr

[merry heart]

yeah but i wasn't a pilot in bf4 so i wouldn't know

[vital quail]

they were on the ground AA vehicle in bf4 as well

[merry heart]

yeah i wasn't a driver either 😅

i preferred gunplay in bf4 way more than vehicle play

[vital quail]

think how annoying the wildcat would be if they had them in this game lol

even more annoying*

[quiet shell]

Honestly hope before DICE ends support for 2042 properly they fix the reload issue with the portal guns where their reload is done when the character's front hand grabs the front of the gun again instead of when the magazine is inserted/round is chambered. It's such a jarring difference from the AOW guns as they don't have this issue

[fathom wind]

Who on

[merry heart]

the guys who have no work tomorrow

[vital quail]

um its the weekend 🤓

[merry heart]

god damn i was ripping it with the TOR

😩

[arctic grove]

Why still bf 2042 has less players than bf5 and 1 ?

[vital quail]

many factors

not as well liked game, more demanding game that people arent going to upgrade specifically for, region locked

[chilly jacinth]

We don't have any accurate player numbers for any of the games

[vital quail]

2042 could have the most with crossplay included, dont know though

[abstract locust]

Just trash optimization unless you do it yourself

The game was unplayable at first and I made it run smooth as butter

[night raven]

Sometimes, when I get my hands on a jet, helicopter, or tank. I try to make dramatic entrances or show off a little just to make the vibe of the match cooler cause of how underwhelming 42 is compared to other BF games. ;-;

[chilly jacinth]

Turning everything to low and turning off some things in the user.cfg file isn't optimization

[night raven]

You know what is though?

Optimus prime

[lean sandal]

Are explosive bolts much slower than normal ones?

I'm feeling like my aim is off when using them

[night raven]

They coukd kaybe have less ramge on them?

[vital quail]

it would make sense for balance reasons

[lean sandal]

shiet, I grinded them in normal matches but they don't feel good at all 😂

[vital quail]

yeah a downside of them is projectile velocity so they are slower

[lean sandal]

and they don't kill instantly in range of 30m like normal ones? they always gotta explode to kill target?

[vital quail]

much much slower, 120m/s compared to 400+ of other ones

[white vine]

Hahahahahaha

[vital quail]

yea 37 impact damage and 95 explosive

[lean sandal]

oh yea, sticking to normal ones then xD

[vital quail]

i dont know the damage against vehicles but it could be used as a meme vehicle destroyer

[lean sandal]

must say feels pretty good on rao, smoke nade, hack trough smoke, quick 1 tap into body and follow onto highlighted targets 😄

[white vine]

Yeah, explosive bolts are noticeably slower than the standard ones. They’ve got a lower velocity and more drop to balance out the added explosive damage. You’ll definitely feel the difference if you’re used to the regular bolts — gotta lead your shots more and account for arc.

That said, they’re super effective for close to mid-range pressure, especially against light vehicles or clustered infantry. Just don’t try to snipe across the map with them unless you’re going for style points.

[vital quail]

ok chatgpt

[lean sandal]

why are u #1 recon hater? XD

[vital quail]

because i hate recons more than anyone else

[lean sandal]

:/ guess we won't get along

[white vine]

Ok ChatGPT’? Man, you came in here asking about bolt velocities and now you’re salty I gave you the answer? I spend my days tweaking projectile speeds and testing them across 128-player chaos — you think I don’t know how explosive bolts fly compared to standard ones? Trust me, there’s a reason we made them slower. It’s called balance. But sure, keep firing them like they’re hitscan and blame the devs when you miss. Classic.

[vital quail]

[lean sandal]

but using them close range isn't counter-intuitive? since person got like 1-2s before they die and I can still get put into dirt like a dog i am

[abstract locust]

I just noticed over half the lobby is bots is it always like this or is it cuz it’s 5am

[white vine]

Totally fair question — and yeah, it can feel counter-intuitive. Explosive bolts are kind of a weird middle ground. They’re not supposed to be one-shot kill monsters in CQC, but they’re also not for long-range precision. The idea is: give recon players a pressure tool for close-mid engagements without turning them into full-on assault mains.

That said, time-to-kill can absolutely feel sluggish, especially if your target’s already mid-sprint, stimmed up, or just spamming movement like it’s Quake. And yeah, you can still get dropped if they land their shots before your explosion registers. We’ve got delay between impact and detonation baked in for balance — otherwise it’d just be a high-damage bodyshot spam fest.

Honestly, explosive bolts are more about softening enemies, breaking cover, or forcing them out of position. If you’re relying on them to win 1v1s face-to-face every time, they’re probably not the right tool. But used right — like opening a fight or catching grouped targets — they shine. Still, I hear you. The dirt’s real. We’ve all eaten it.

Server lagging

So much lag

[vital quail]

inching closer to the crawford t1 in rush overdrive

always feel like i have to get off the turret to revive every 5 seconds

[brittle wind]

Yes

[queen violet]

Now then. Pc campers lol. Hows the farming going on the new bot mode 😂
None of you can take a box on rush …lol pc camping aim bots … cant make a flag. Pc gaymers. Useless

[rugged citrus]

Looks like someone's having a bad day, care on talking it out?

[queen violet]

Just saying facts lol

Farmers = pc aim bots

[rugged citrus]

Whatever floats your boat i guess then

[queen violet]

Are you a pc farmer

[pine roost]

Console users am I right

[queen violet]

Try arm a rush box. Try mark a flag. You cant. Garbage

[rugged citrus]

Not sure maybe the player count is really low?

[solid solstice]

Hellooo?

[rugged citrus]

What region are you in anyways?

[solid solstice]

how

cause in the charts its saying over a 1000 players

[queen violet]

Game is good. Its the modern day gamer Garbage.

[solid solstice]

middle east

[queen violet]

Do you have flip flops pn ?

[rugged citrus]

Yeah if it's showing 1000 players or somewhere around that, you can expect 40% to be idling and the remaining are either in the lobby, or are playing a match that isn't in your region

I'm in Asia and uh, the games pretty dead for me too lol

[solid solstice]

hiw do ichange regions?

[rugged citrus]

Well, it seems like dice hates us so we don't have a server browser to do so; your best bet is a vpn but then your ping will be screwed

[pine roost]

On 2042 you cannot

[solid solstice]

wow that sucks

even with crossplay on im not getting anything

Oh well ig i can go for portal

[rugged citrus]

The games been really dead lately I don't even bother with it anymore

[solid solstice]

true, i myself play delta force instead

[vital quail]

VPN to change regions

[naive ember]

Not in NA

It's 6 am est I'm sure there's a few full matches

No option to change matchmaking region either lmao. Trash game

[pastel meadow]

• Need help

Reinstalled BF42, anyone on PS5 here? Are there new settings or changes to aiming than it was like a year ago? It feels like I don't have aim assist whatsoever, I don't remember it being like that back when I played it

(Playing on highest sense, crossplay off, and 100 fov)

[brittle wind]

Looks like Blasco is better than I thought, she's unspottable not only against devices but also against players, 3D spotting doesn't work on her 😍

I wish she had a medpen, would be my go to specialist instantly

[jade flame]

blasco is nice on some maps ngl

but paik >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

im bored and wanna play with people but nooo no one reads lfg xd

[brittle wind]

Paik is the opposite of Blasco, she's constantly pinged on minimap

[naive ember]

Paik is better in some situations but most of the time Blasco is just better

[next onyx]

Rao does a much better job at spotting.

Than Paik

i just bought the cheaper version of the event pass in bf2042, and when i get that level why it isint giving me the award?

You'll get them

you will

[cedar hatch]

Tried that, it looks wildly inaccurate

it says I have zero wins, but I've extracted quite a few times now

So I think that tracker is broken

[tame hamlet]

Is it just me or just matchmaking cannot find any matches right now?

Nvm it found

[warm stirrup]

Anybody trying to play 128 player frontlines? Moderate XP?

[frigid bridge]

when i try join a game it says “unable to load persistent data” and kicks me out… why?

[stone steeple]

somebody want to crush some AI robos?

[jade flame]

sure

join a vc

[jade flame]

YO HALLO

[vernal hearth]

how do people ALWAYS know where i am?????

[jade flame]

spotting

[idle lion]

Minimap

once you start using it will change your life

[vernal hearth]

but i wasnt on radar…

[fickle wharf]

thing called 3D spotting lmaooo

[vernal hearth]

????

[idle lion]

How would you know that? it doesnt tell you when you are or not are

For now tho while your getting used to it, use Paik

[vernal hearth]

because im not shooting or sprinting????????

[idle lion]

Theres TUG-S, Casper Drone, Detection ball nade whateverthefuck, Paik all of these put you on the minimap

and only Paik gives you a warning

[vernal hearth]

the fuck is that

[fickle wharf]

3d spotting as well

[vernal hearth]

whats that

[idle lion]

TUG-S the thing you stick down somewhere and it pulses to check for people that are moving, if you moved recently it would pick you up, Casper drone can just look at you and it will auto spot you regardless, detection ball requires movement if i remember correctly, paik(operator) just dont care its like wallhacks and minimap hacks

[idle lion]

when you press Q on someone

[vernal hearth]

nobody did that to me

[idle lion]

from a distance can be done but im assuming you were hiding so

[fickle wharf]

THE GAME DOESNT TELL YOU THAT YOU ARE SPOTTED

[vernal hearth]

but nobody saw me

[idle lion]

so it probably was a casper drone

[fickle wharf]

"passive/reticle/nametag spotting where no input is made by myself or another player but because my reticle/crosshair was near an enemy they are 3D spotted automatically from my perspective."

theres also this

[idle lion]

its very inconsistent so i doubt its that

[fickle wharf]

but its what i am suspecting

ravic has a good video on it

[brittle wind]

2042 was better when it had no 3D spotting

But BF casuals can't play without chasing doritos so they had to add it

[fickle wharf]

kek

[warm stirrup]

To be fair spotting used to be squad only

Way better now

[brittle wind]

I hope new BF will have a Blasco-like perk for assault. I don't want to be spotted at all lmao.

[fickle wharf]

think you meant recon

[brittle wind]

I want that for assault

Recon should be perma spotted instead imo

[rotund ridge]

Way worse. So many things spot you, trying to flank is pointless most of the time.
More dumbing down the game.

[vernal hearth]

i just got 1 tapped by a smoke grenade????

meanwhile it takes me 9 shots to kill

[exotic gate]

hello world

what news?

[pine roost]

Not much really

[vernal hearth]

damn the sfar is terrible

literally deals like 5 damage lol

i hit someone with 15 shots and it brought them to 20hp

[brittle wind]

Literally best AR in the game

[vernal hearth]

how bro

low damage + bad firerate

[brittle wind]

Most consistent gun in AR category

Same TTK up to 50 meters

[rain violet]

Yeah SFAR excels at everything besides hip fire compared to other ARs but you get an underbarrel launcher.

And even then the hip fire is still serviceable

[brittle wind]

Non meta guns feels terrible to use in 2042 for some reason

[glass hemlock]

Anyone knows how to fix the black screen in bf2042?

[rain violet]

Portal ARs have too much spread comparatively and the reload delay sucks.

[eager stirrup]

why it isnt giving me the 10 lv from the event pass

[jade flame]

relog

[jade flame]

thats why they are not in the meta

i mean as you know meta means most effective tactic available

[brittle wind]

Non meta weapons are fine to use in any other shooter. Not in 2042. They feel terrible one way or another.

[jade flame]

in any game nonmeta is always shit

you dont feel that way but it is garbage

example lets use bf4 , any non meta gun makes it annoying and useless

[brittle wind]

I played BFV and BO6 recently too, non meta guns are fine to use in them

Like you can make them work

In 2042 it's just weird

Inconsistent recoil, spread and fire rate delay(burst fire issue)

Like RM68, great weapon on paper but has awful spread

[jade flame]

FINE"

what is "FINE"

[jade flame]

oh yeah we know that part

but in every other game its same

[brittle wind]

I can dominate some lobbies with them

No one uses Goblin in BO6, it's a great weapon if you have a good trigger finger

Or Welgun in BFV, slow TTK but great hipfire accuracy, allowing me to be more mobile in fights

[jade flame]

Im getting spam killed in ai mode

because apparantly "I AM CHEATING"

[glass hemlock]

anyone knows how to fix the black screen on launch problem?

[chilly jacinth]

Can't say i agree, i play pretty much equally well with all the guns

[pastel heath]

anyone intrested in milsim ?

[acoustic oar]

Nope thanks. Not playing bf for that.

[lilac ivy]

Anyone tryna run IM on ps5

[brittle wind]

I don't think so, they either have too much recoil or too much spread

[worthy vine]

Me using the SVK because funny 2 shot kill

Recoil on the SVK is very manageable. Most of the time you get the second shot off before they register the first one

[brittle wind]

Nah I mean ARs too. Look at VHX for example.

Too much recoil, inconsistent too

[worthy vine]

This is exactly why I don't use ARs and SMGs. Too wildly inaccurate, considering most of them are intermediate rifles

LMGs have a much better tradeoff than ARs in my opinion

Avancys is literally just a high capacity AR with better recoil management lmao

[brittle wind]

What about M5A3?

[worthy vine]

Dude the RPK has always been fire

[brittle wind]

LMGs are awful for most specialists

[worthy vine]

Especially back in BF4

[brittle wind]

Yes

AEK is awful

[worthy vine]

LMGs are incredibly accurate for what they are, usually have high ammo capacity, and have access to some pretty dumb optics they shouldn't get lol

[brittle wind]

MTAR is far better, M5A3 also has same damage model with far better recoil

[brittle wind]

You get worse strafing speeds and worse ADS/sprint to fire speeds, LMGs are only good with Mackay

Mackay's LMG strafe speed is same as other specialists' AR strafe speed

[orchid tusk]

Welrod is where its at. 24/7/365

[fickle wharf]

engis get more use out of lmgs

[orchid tusk]

they wouldn't put it in the game if it wasn't

[fickle wharf]

more accurate in prone or crouch

[worthy vine]

Why are you using an LMG up front with the AR and SMG users? Of course you're gonna get shid on

I personally use the DFR Strife with bipod and 6x thermal.

I've held back entire infantry pushes by sitting on top of one of the cranes in that port map. It's absurd

[narrow flare]

anyone dogfight play with me ?

[worthy vine]

LMGs are the epitome of "sit and wait". Your job is to hold positions, not push them

[fickle wharf]

6x thermal
💀

[worthy vine]

You don't see mofos irl pushing houses with a 240B with six nutsacks hanging off his chest

[worthy vine]

The best LMG optic

[acoustic oar]

Its a game not irl milisim stuff. LMGs can be okay on close range if you use a red dot.

I only use red dots anyway, even on the svk 🙂

[worthy vine]

But you're going to lose to anyone using an AR or SMG because of the objectively worse handling stats

Especially if you're caught in a sprint

LMGs are not push weapons

They're stand your ground weapons

[acoustic oar]

Definitely not anyone, no, its viable and most people don't hit their shots so you are fine.

[worthy vine]

A skilled person with an M5 against a skilled person with a PKP. Both are sprinting and come across each other, and both open fire accurately.

Despite the PKP have a monstrous firepower advantage, the M5 wins because LMGs are just horrible for CQC

They have dog water handling stats

[acoustic oar]

Highly hypothetical all of that. LMG are viable. Are they the best for close range? No, still viable.

[worthy vine]

I'm not saying you can't use an LMG for CQC, but there's literally a Holy Roman Scroll of other weapons that are objectively better for it

I don't use LMGs indoors unless I'm holding a corridor, knowing damn well that anyone who enters is going to lose because I'm on a bipod and can beamride their skulls

LMGs are actually far better at extreme ranges as a psychological weapon

Sit in a well defended position with a bipod and a 6x thermal and rain fire on them. Even if you don't get kills, it'll send them scrambling like rats

Full auto fire from an unknown location has a tendency to make people forget how to use their brains

[acoustic oar]

I'll just throw a smoke and move closer.

[worthy vine]

That's cute
Uses my 6x thermal to mow you down anyways

Smoke means literally jack shit to thermals

I can see you through it

[acoustic oar]

We're still talking about 2042, right?

[worthy vine]

Yes

You can peek smoke with thermal optics

[lilac ivy]

Is the an94 good?

[worthy vine]

Oh yeah in that close range I use a red dot, because the thermals are a better identifier than an actual optic

[acoustic oar]

Thermal scopes don't peek through player smoke in 2042 to my knowledge.

[worthy vine]

Yes it does

I know for a fact you can see through smoke with the 6x thermal

I do it all the time with LMGs and the SVK

[fickle wharf]

its MID

[worthy vine]

Smoke doesn't save you

[fickle wharf]

nope

[worthy vine]

It does make sense though. Modern smoke, unless it's Willy Pete, will not block IR optics

[worthy vine]

Yep

[brittle wind]

If I want a close range AR I would still use M5A3, even without short barrel it's fun to use imo. AEK has the worst recoil pattern in the game imo.

[worthy vine]

I've done it many times lmao

[fickle wharf]

nah uh

[brittle wind]

ARs are still far better imo, AR engagement distances are same as LMGs lol

And I T1'd all the LMGs

[worthy vine]

I know, but an LMG is going to lose to an AR in cqc due to the handling

Also

Id show you the clip but I can't post clips in #screenshots-and-clips for some reason

Does anyone know how to get perms to post clips?

[brittle wind]

id:customize

[worthy vine]

What am I supposed to do with this

I can see the vhannel

I can't post in it

Nevermind I see it

[lilac ivy]

The am 24 is pretty nice

[fickle wharf]

an94 is best for long since its velocity is on par with snipers

[brittle wind]

Nah, ACWR has heavy damage dropoff

It's a close range AR

[brittle wind]

Also the case with AN94

[fickle wharf]

READ Sorrows spreadsheet for knowledge

[brittle wind]

Look at it's BTK, 7 BTK in 100+ meters

[fickle wharf]

ITS COLD FACTS

[worthy vine]

I posted an image in #screenshots-and-clips of thermas seeing a person who's standing in the middle of smoke

[brittle wind]

ACWR has spread and AN94 has heavy damage dropoff, SFAR is better at long range than either of them, SFAR or AK5C

[fickle wharf]

middle
hes exposed at the top of the smoke cloud

[worthy vine]

He's also in the middle of the smoke cloud behind the front cloud

There were three smokes thrown in that area surrounding that container, I saw at least four people running through the smoke

[brittle wind]

AK5C wasn't a poster weapon 💀

[worthy vine]

Flashes of orange booking it to escape the SVK prosecution

[burnt halo]

all the vaulted weapons feel underpowered compared to the normal weapons tbh

[worthy vine]

If you look at the video I just posted, he's very clearly behind the smoke cloud entirely

Aight

Hilarious that the ACW-R is slept on in this game when it was actually one of the most OP cqc rifles in BF4

[brittle wind]

ACWR was OP before the nerfs

It's not slept on, it's balanced, there are better options though

[worthy vine]

He was directly behind the cloud of smoke you see thrown.

Like you can see the smoke billowing over him

I mean yes, he's behind the smoke

But I can see his entire body past the smoke cloud

[fickle wharf]

your are in a elevated position

[worthy vine]

The smoke is between me and him

You can literally watch it blow higher up than him

[fickle wharf]

[worthy vine]

You can see the smoke almost entirely obstructing the shipping container, but I can still see the human who is much much shorter than the container

[chilly jacinth]

Top of the smoke is thinner aka doesn't obstruct thermals

[worthy vine]

Had I been using a VLS optic I wouldn't have been able to see him

[worthy vine]

So it can see through some of the smoke

But not the very core of it

[chilly jacinth]

Basically the dome where smoke fully obstructs thermals is smaller than you can see visually

[worthy vine]

Okay vool

[brittle wind]

You're just gimping yourself, might as well use MTAR too, same damage model with no recoil

AEK is trash either way

[worthy vine]

Was gonna say, only very specific Smoke grenades can deter thermals

But they can't completely block them

Only one kind of smoke grenade can fully block IR scopes, and it's somewhat illegal. Infantry can't carry them

Special IR smoke grenades use brass shards to block IR sights, but it's literally only for a few seconds, not the full duration of the smoke

Willy Pete can also block IR scopes, but it's illegal

Regular smokes won't do shit lol

[merry heart]

... i got killed by jet debris after killing an enemy jet with my nightbird (mike emoji)

[worthy vine]

Hell yeah

As a Liz player, I love nuking planes and helis

AEK garbage 😏

[brittle wind]

I tried it too, worst recoil pattern in the game 🤷 It's just better to use MTAR or ACWR or M5A3 or any of the close range ARs, even AN94 is better imo

[worthy vine]

I also posted some clips of me being a menace as Liz

[brittle wind]

I'm just saying it's not worth the effort to master it's recoil when base game guns already has no recoil, not even portal guns has that bad recoil

[worthy vine]

Id rather just carry an SVK if I was shooting at range lol

SVK is going to kill faster at medium range than most ARs

[brittle wind]

It doesn't even have like 200ms TTK, it's TTK is same as M5A3 and MTAR, 200ms TTK guns like PBX has like no recoil

[pale creek]

yes you are right i checked on the website that is true

[worthy vine]

It's a 2 shot body or 1 shot head within I think 50m?

It's absurd

[pale creek]

yes

very unbalanced

[brittle wind]

100 meters

2 body shot

[worthy vine]

Noice

[pale creek]

like the DMR-14 in warzone in january 2021

[worthy vine]

Yeah it's gross

[worthy vine]

It's offset by a humongolous recoil and slow fire rate

SVK is hard to control, as it's reset is much slower than other DMRs like the DM7

[lilac ivy]

Y’all think bf6 going to be like bf4

I feel like bf hasn’t been the same since

[worthy vine]

BF4 was peak but also ehhh

It had its nuances

There were controller throwing moments where the engine would fuck something up and hand your ass on a platter

BF4 netcoding was also god awful sometimes

[ashen wind]

Yo does anyone know if the servers are back up?

[worthy vine]

BF3 was better because it was the OG.
BF4 just did everything 3 did but looked way better and had better weapons handling

They're the same game

I just don't like the blue in BF3

I have sensitivity to blue light

The blue everything is the sole reason why I refuse to play BF3

[lilac ivy]

I never played three but I heard it was a good game

[worthy vine]

It was

It just looked funny with my glasses

[orchid tusk]

so when you think we learn the next games name?

[worthy vine]

All the blue turns to this weird tinted orange color

[lilac ivy]

I just hope they get this game right because cod is trash

[worthy vine]

I wish I could agree

I despised 3

Because I can't play it without my glasses, and then it just looks ugly

Unfortunately I have an extreme sensitivity to blue light, so I have these special glasses that filter out almost all of it

Imagine BF3 with none of the blue tint

All of it is more grey

Or orange

[orchid tusk]

2042 is when they became blind robots

[worthy vine]

Yeah but I can't look at excessive blue light

Which is why I have special glasses

When I wear them, BF3 is just fucking ugly to play

Because it all becomes monochromatic

Because EVERYTHING IS BLUE

Imagine having migraines.... All the time, simply because you can't look at a color

[orchid tusk]

crystal gayle says turned her brown eyes blue

[worthy vine]

HOMIE THE SKY IS BLUE

[arctic grove]

I checked and signed up and filled up survey from but there is no battlefield 6 sign up in the ea official website

[worthy vine]

I get migraines the the single largest thing the eyes can encapsulate on a day to day basis

[brittle wind]

SVK has better TTK and damage range than DM7 🤡

[worthy vine]

I'm aware, I use it at mid to short ranges because it trashes on AR players

Yeah I get migraines from blue

The funniest thing?

I have a blue truck

My work uniform is blue

My name in this server is blue lmao

It's atrocious

Have you considered saying no?

Migraines can't induce pain without consent

Or your brain is too small and it smacks around on the inside of your skull

[brittle wind]

😭 Hope it gets better

[worthy vine]

LMAO

I'm 25 and I physically feel like I'm 80

But I have a bad knee and hip on the same leg, as well as a bad shoulder

So I'm just old

Nah if I live to see 50 I'm taking myself out

You will see on the news of an old man HALO jumping without a parachute

Odds are that I'd actually survive though

And yes, humans have survived hitting the ground at terminal velocity, about 120 mph

Or 200 kmh

At 50 years old though you'd probably explode

Aight this just got too real

Imma go piss off heli players as liz

[glossy junco]

consistent headaches sound like a reason for a doctor's visit.

sure why not (also u should find a different doctor lol)

[orchid tusk]

[dire sapphire]

I am in extreme disbelief that players are having a hard time shooting AI

[orchid tusk]

could be worse

[gloomy bay]

Anyone wanna squad up later- have a mic

[orchid tusk]

doubtful

but who knows?

[autumn scroll]

====
Combo-attack to teamplay

• autohide chat by default (50% of message will not show it up to squadmates)
• partially working voice comm (while loading - not working, mouse bind is not working in 80% games, only keyboard)
• holding key to commo-rose (instead of press you need hold, you have no time with 0.1s ttk)
• merge people from different countries to same squad (babylon of our era)

There unable to be any teamplay. Its a joke

[vital quail]

What

[autumn scroll]

#1 bf2042 hater here

bug that covers bug that covers bug that covers with virtual clothes shopping mall

[worthy vine]

Dude I've launched missiles and missed and still gotten kills

It's not hard to hit AI

They move in straight lines

Hold on lemme find the clip lol

[night raven]

Man. Imagine being a robot. Couldn't be me.

[eternal lagoon]

Chat i got T1 mastery on the Ghostmaker R10!!!

[quartz spire]

most of the time when i launch the game i get stuck on a loading screen with the earth and a satellite

anyone have a fix for this?

[jolly marlin]

Who's actually having fun with the new event game modes?

[eternal lagoon]

Me

Its a lot more strategic imo, playing with friends is a blast

[jolly marlin]

I'm having a hard time because of that.
When I play with my pal, 42 is a lot more fun overall.

[jolly marlin]

And congrats, after hitting T3, bots won't count towards mastery, which means you've got over 800 confirmed player kills with it.

[eternal lagoon]

Never used bots, wanted full bragging rights

[jolly marlin]

Kudos

[lilac ivy]

Yo

[jolly marlin]

Also, that strategy won't work for specialists, with specialists you actually have to kill/heal/resupply and spot players.

[eternal lagoon]

Yeah, i almost got lis and falck to T1 anyways

lis is just a grind, but i get like 80 revive games every time i use falck, exlcuding healing

[jolly marlin]

I've got them all, it took a LONG time, but the outfits and badges are cool.

[eternal lagoon]

DANG, thats awesome

[quartz spire]

anyone?

[eternal lagoon]

hours?

[jolly marlin]

Lemme find out.

[eternal lagoon]

Restart the game a few times. not just once, restart your PC if that doesnt work

[jolly marlin]

On obj, 140hrs.

[eternal lagoon]

Try to boot the game through the EA app otherwise if your using steam

[eternal lagoon]

Yeesh

[jolly marlin]

Overall 995 hours.

[eternal lagoon]

Lmao im on 230 and my only T1's are defib and ghostmaker xD

[jolly marlin]

To be fair I did cheese Irish and Rao.
If you have a pal play Lis and they shoot their rockets over your sentinels as Irish, it goes up significantly faster and using spot grenades for Rao is pretty good to up his mastery.

[brittle wind]

Lis is easy with air-tank superiority modes

[jolly marlin]

I also had a glitch master Dozer, one night I fell asleep and he was mastery 24, I wake up and start up 42 and then he's mastery 64.

[eternal lagoon]

What r those

[jolly marlin]

There was a theory of cosmic rays jumping bits in games like in a famous case of a speed runner on Nintendo 64 where he super bounced in a Mario game, I wanna say that maybe I have a similar case with the anomalous Dozer glitch.

[eternal lagoon]

That was sadly proven fake iirc

[jolly marlin]

Unfortunate.

[brittle wind]

Portal

[eternal lagoon]

Ah, not a fan

[brittle wind]

Official portal modes such as BF3 Tank Superiority or 2042 Air Superiority etc. will count towards Lis challenges

I finished it in like few matches of Bulge

[jolly marlin]

I guess I took the hard way with Lis. lol

I just camped near enemy spawn with her and prayed nobody noticed.

[brittle wind]

Yeah lol

I T1'd almost everyone that's why I know best strats for them lol

Except Boris, I just need someone else who's willing to help me cheese it

[jolly marlin]

What's the issue, you need an extra camper?

[brittle wind]

Nah, there is a Boris T1 server but it needs 2 people for it to work

[eternal lagoon]

If i gotta play some extra mode to get T1, ion want it, im getting through base game no cheese

[jolly marlin]

Respect.

[brittle wind]

Enjoy getting 2 progress per match instead of 20 then

[eternal lagoon]

I will

I just dont find having a medal that shows that ive grinded but not having earned it enjoyable

[jolly marlin]

I just feel that in reality any exploit is well, exploited.
Shouldn't feel bad for loop holes.
But it's commendable doing it the honest way.

[eternal lagoon]

Im not against others doing it in any way, i just dont like the feeling of doing it myself

[jolly marlin]

Exactly, which I find very honorable.

[eternal lagoon]

@quartz spire Howd it go?

[quartz spire]

Just saw your first message

This isn’t a a one off thing

It happens every single time i boot the game

[velvet sand]

new mode seems fun, sorta like a shooting gallery, but holy crap it seems to highlight how bad some people are lmao

[meager fog]

does ea even test their own game modes or no ??????

what are they even doing

Rush override, the lab map, 30 games, every time we lose because these robots are coming waves after waves nonstop no matter how many you kill them

even smokes cant help enough

or maybe ea team tested their game mode, maybe i dont know, is there some secret to stop these waves ?

[vocal tusk]

Its supposed to be a fun mode for shooting robots with your mates, dont think about it so much lol

[brittle wind]

Just farm them for easy T1 🥶

[meager fog]

yeah no there is a time limit

[jolly marlin]

Taco said it encourages strategy, I'm guessing if you have your players rotate focus fire on the entrances, like two firing and each time they reload then their teammate shoots and repeat, someone has to plant the bomb though.

[meager fog]

first 4 points is hard enough but you can blow them up

5 and 6 is impossible

maybe it is, i dont know if anyone here passed these points send a clip

want to see

smokes and barricade doesnt help much since the placement of these points does not give you any cover, bots coming from all sides

[meager fog]

no you cant, literally metal wave attacks

no matter how many you kill them

[jolly marlin]

I said I'm guessing, I never had team mates actually working together when trying that mode.

[velvet sand]

like, holy crap some people are shockingly terrible at this game vs the ai rofl. i don't get it

[jolly marlin]

It's like a repeat of the geists but worse.

[umbral kayak]

the game glitched to where i was swimming underneath the battle

but able to mark enemies. was very fun

[jolly marlin]

That's common.

[velvet sand]

it's easy as shit. they line up for you and you can just peak and wreck them. but people are like...using drones to scout? and not shooting much? and running out in the open and dying?

[umbral kayak]

caught two night birds just whooping the opposing teams butt.

seeing people pannick as a i spot them from underneath them. hilarious

[jolly marlin]

The geists? Yeah, these bots though kill much faster and completely ignore you when mcom activates.

You need someone defending mcom and at the entrances.

And probably bigger magazines.

Reloading is usually the thing that leads to my death because I can't kill the next one that comes through before it kills me.

If I had someone covering my reload, maybe we'd succeed.

But that goes back to the first issue. Teammates.

[velvet sand]

i'm just shocked at how low kill counts are for my teammates

[jade flame]

Agreed

Altough If u are competent under 10 mins is doable and winning total gives you 100k with exp boost weekend + event reward 100%

Plus t1 farm

Last run I had was literally my team thought I was cheating for some reason (my guess is they were stuck at 50 kills I had 200+

[jade flame]

It makes u question who are the bots actually xd

[meager fog]

wanna play together ?

im tired planting 10 bombs alone every game

[jade flame]

I mean Im online If u wanna

I spam the mode for ez exp + t1 farm

Higher numer monke mode

[meager fog]

i will join in 15 min, need to do something

[jade flame]

Okay Ill hop in a vc

U will see me

[ionic wind]

@stoic zinc you should let me back in Ngl

[jolly marlin]

Maybe some other time, thanks for the offer.

Hey guys so question

Iv been trying to play with a friend who's on pc and can't seem to invite him let alone add him as a friend I checked the ea apps and stuff that's no help at all if not makes it more confusing any help or links that could help would be appreciated

God this is really giving me a headache

[brittle wind]

Are you playing on Xbox One or Series X?

[remote kiln]

^

tldr:
if you are on a last gen console you can't play with new gen or pc players

Series x new gen

[remote kiln]

has he tried adding you? if it's the reverse you have to use the EA id specifically

[glad crater]

He's sent me invites I can't see them pop up at all

[remote kiln]

ea account privacy settings maybe? sounds like a suspect reason to me

[glad crater]

We both linked our ea accounts to xbox

Iv looked at all the settings nothing seems to work no matter what I try

He can see my brother and my dads accounts online but just can't see mine I send him game invites he doesn't receive

[remote kiln]

your EA account settings are not located ingame

[glad crater]

I serch his I'd up nothing pops up in swrch bar in game

[vital quail]

do you actually have the seris x version downloaded

[glad crater]

Iv tried on the Web page to still nothing or am I using the wrong ea site

Got a link to the ea site

Yes I downloaded through game pass only version available

[remote kiln]

https://myaccount.ea.com/cp-ui/privacy/index this is the section you're looking for

it has to be set to everyone and you need to have these on

[glad crater]

Yep been using that to try figuring it out since last night and no progress with it

Have all those setting on

[remote kiln]

can your dad/brother invite you?

[glad crater]

Unsure they not online atm but wouldn't need to coz they are on xbox

It's only my friend that's on pc that can't see my profile or add me or I add him but he also has an xbox account as well which is linked to his pc account

[remote kiln]

you'll need to identify if it's you or him specifically, once you've got something isolated down you can figure out what's going on, try and find others on pc and him for Xbox to invite and see what happens

if it works for him then it's your account, and vice versa

you can loop around this issue for now by joining a portal server together and then directly adding/inviting from there (the scoreboard)

[burnt halo]

you get anything for leveling up past lvl 99?

[brittle wind]

Nah

[chrome hazel]

froze smh

[pale bridge]

is anyone looking to group up forr the rush override game mode?

[last mortar]

The rush mode is freaking ridiculous

And not in a good way, to be clear

[pale bridge]

ive cleared a couple of them. you just have to have a good team and lots of smokes

[night raven]

I accidentally bodied the fuck out of my teammate by slamming those 4 wheelers onto them 😔

[arctic grove]

is it real

[burnt halo]

idek if rush override is winnable without cheezing it

[pale bridge]

it can be done

[jade flame]

what cheesing it lol

[pale bridge]

angle popping the bots

[glad crater]

Yea can't figure it out we both unlinked and linked our accounts didn't work we have all settings as should be but still nothing but can join each other in portal but again can't make friends even by the leader board nothing we try works and we tried everything all the advice given and from reddit and ea help

[topaz wigeon]

Bot Rush Mode so far:

• Redacted is the hardest map we tried, the bots are brutal at all the natural chokepoints
• Noshahr Canals we can get to the last points, after the hill, and almost had it but our random TK'd our last guy guarding the MCOM and left
• Atacama Desert is the only one I've beaten, the wide-open-ness with lots of places for bots to get hung up on seems to really help, on the last point you can get up on the cranes and snipe and vulcan
• Crawford and his vulcan appear to be essential
• Smoke Grenade Everyday

[midnight mesa]

Smokes are a must

Literally impossible to win without

[arctic grove]

Does 2042 not have a campaign?

[topaz wigeon]

nope

[midnight mesa]

Nope

[fierce cedar]

New portal experience. "Tommy guns Subs and Pistols". One faction is BC2 with you guessed it, Thompson Submachine guns, rockets and pistols. The other faction is German WW2 and they use Rockets, MP-40 sub guns, and Pistols. Both sides have their vehicles. The damage is high so the guns take enemies down quickly. 64 v 64 on Conquest maps. abzfz3 is the code. check it out.

[arctic grove]

What a shame

[midnight mesa]

Ikr

Good thing the next bf’s having one

[arctic grove]

I saw some snippets of the ""story"" for this game

I would've really liked a campaign

[midnight mesa]

Yeah like that one youtube video on the battlefield channel

[topaz wigeon]

1942 had no campaign, 2142 had no campaign, 2042 has no campaign, I think the key is that if it's a Battlefield ending in '42 (or '43) it has no campaign

[midnight mesa]

I was so hyped at the time when that video dropped

[topaz wigeon]

it never did live up to the trailer (then again battlefield rarely does) but 2042 did finally get good

[arctic grove]

Everything feels worse after BF1

[vital quail]

https://theexodusarchives.com/welcome this website has all the lore that can be read outside of the game

[cobalt nexus]

Is there a official release date ?? #BF6

[topaz wigeon]

no

[cobalt nexus]

Yea

Sounds like it’s gonna be crazy

[arctic grove]

I don't think so, have you signed up for the testing?

[cobalt nexus]

No, but they should definitely let us get a taste

[midnight mesa]

Is anyone else’s game getting less fps since the update

Nvm it automatically changed my graphic settings for some reason

[arctic grove]

I have

[sly glen]

anyone trying to squad up

[limpid pond]

New leaks look so good.

[merry heart]

man pp29 is seriously busted

[burnt halo]

i feel like it gets out performed by the AM40

[jade flame]

pp29>>>>>

although lately my fav gun is ac9

[limpid pond]

Ac9 is good pp29 Is better due to range

I don't use the pp29 cheese

I'll outgun pp29 users with a mp9

[chrome hazel]

K30 is life

[merry heart]

yeah im liking the K30 for the high powered rounds more

[chrome hazel]

I’ve grown accustomed to the 50 rd mag

It does a decent job

It’s great for flanks without the 50 you run out fast

[merry heart]

i dont really flank with it tbh i use k30 more for bulldogging

i prefer the AC9 for flanking

[chrome hazel]

I never use it

Then again I use like a total of 6-8 guns?

AEK and M4

Only assaults I use

[merry heart]

yeah same with the amount of guns that i use

[chrome hazel]

And the NTW is the only rifle 😭

Idk what it is but smth abt barrel stuffing people with it makes me enjoy the game

[merry heart]

yeah i get it

and in terms of vehicles i only use like 2

[chrome hazel]

I don’t even use veh anymore

I couldn’t get used to them besides the Abrams and attack choppa

[timid pebble]

should i buy the game?

[chrome hazel]

Ur pretty late to the party

[timid pebble]

would you buy it now?

[chrome hazel]

Uh

Personally

I wouldn’t

I’d be playing something else

[timid pebble]

why?

[chrome hazel]

games just been out for years

[torpid wadi]

Yeah try her out if she goes on sale

[chrome hazel]

Is it on sale rn?

[torpid wadi]

No favourite of mine but it ain’t bad

[chrome hazel]

^

[torpid wadi]

Hell of i know

[chrome hazel]

I preordered so I’ve had since launch.

[torpid wadi]

If it ain’t then i’d wait till it is

[chrome hazel]

This event is pretty good

[torpid wadi]

Oh yeah i should prolly try it

Totally forgot about it

[chrome hazel]

I wouldn’t miss out on it since the xp is

I maxed out the event pass today

averaging 130 kills+ a game works like a charm for grabbing tiers

[torpid wadi]

Ahh i don’t much care bout xp. Got me rpk and that’s all a brother needs

[chrome hazel]

it’s great for attachment unlocking

Depends on the weapon tho. Close range can be a pain in the ass depending on the map.

[burnt halo]

kinda conflicted of weither I should use PKP pr RPT for my LMG setup

[limpid pond]

Pkp is more of a close range fast firing lmg. Lcmg is super strong but rpt is best overall unless you compare it to the avancys

[idle lion]

if you troll in rush override its perfectly fine for the person your trolling to f the game up by c4ing in the floor

[limpid pond]

Hey man did you ever get the stuttering issues fixed?

I know you said it was freeze framing really bad

[idle lion]

ye

i used the overclock05% profile on my mobo and it just fixed itself

[limpid pond]

What was the issue

[idle lion]

apart from that

XMP needed to be enabled too

[limpid pond]

Ah weird. Maybe it was a power c9nsumption problem then??

At least it got fixed. So the games running smooth now right?

[idle lion]

doubt so, overclocking wouldve made it worse

[idle lion]

ye is workin now

[limpid pond]

Well that's good at least then. I know problems like that are super annoying so imma add it to my list

Well I'm gonna go to sleep. 12 hr stream starting in about 8 hours

[idle lion]

pog good luck with your stream and guten nacht

[limpid pond]

Take care man. Glad the issues were fixed for you

[autumn scroll]

====
That will be a good idea if instead of jeep/tank-delivery you could ask to drop different equipment when you reach certain location (since taking RPG from dead enemy is not an option anymore, and swapping between Mackkey and Recon is not possible)
Dropping pair of one-rocket RPGs seems better than getting another tube from the pocket.
Also big tubes that can be reloaded by teammate instantly increases teamplay +200%
Dropping stationary AT/AA guns is good option too. It can be limited to 1 per player, because it cannot move.

If your flying girl has time-reloaded smoke grenade and can switch it on while on the fly - the problem of "empty maps/no covers" may be self-solved. Instead she drops grenade that drops grenade that drops grenade that drops grenade that drops BSOD

Helldivers allready designed ideas. The problem is - game designer has no brain even to copy it.

[split grove]

Anyone looking to squad up? Casual, don’t care what we play

[burnt halo]

when you hack with Rao, are enemies spotted just for you, or your whole team?

[narrow flare]

Anyone looking for 1v1 dogfight ~~

[halcyon linden]

Anyone looking for a Mate? Best German and alternative English speaker

PM me

[frozen loom]

I live the Avancys.

*love

[stoic gyro]

No wonder there aren't many players
Are there any moderators here?
The game won't stop crashing.
I can't play.

[cosmic thorn]

I think AN94 is bugged. Everytime i get hit or killed by it, i get no hit Indicator and no sound

[vital quail]

yeah just happened to me

only my 2nd time being killed by it so not a lot of experience

[pearl ridge]

Breakaway is definitely the worst map for domination

The rig’s just too cramped and spawns are nearly guaranteed to force you to ascend up to the platform at just a few fixed points, easily camped.

Plus the highly defendable high ground everywhere

[vital quail]

does it just use tdm maps

[pearl ridge]

Soflaming every enemy vehicle in sight and my teammate with a javelin is shooting all his rockets at an empty jeep

Fucking morons

Seriously does this guy know how to breathe unassisted

[chilly jacinth]

And OCE is supposed to be sweatier

[pearl ridge]

No see all the sweats are on the other team. Every time.

And when they finally end up on my team, that’s when they choose to go all experimental and shit and start dicking around

[cedar tendon]

Games in a dire state just seems like bot no clue players and cheats every match

Using soflam no one uses rockets

[pearl ridge]

Soflam rocket combo would be genuinely overpowered if it wasn’t for the fact that the average player is an actual mental reject

So it never comes into play

With this many engineers on any given team, you’d think at least one of them would wonder what would happen if they aimed at the funny yellow box

[vital quail]

The other day I had a boris watch me drive onto a flag, I got out for 2 seconds and in that time he decided to lock onto the jeep with a javelin but thankfully I got back in it before it hit

The most boris thing possible

[dusk hedge]

Battlefield still Makes fun?

[eternal lagoon]

Jesus these cornballs sitting in Apaches behind buildings with the sole purpose of ruining your game can go die in a ditch

[brittle wind]

Based

[brittle wind]

• LCMG, RPT : High RPM, high recoil close combat LMGs
• PKP, Avancys : High RPM, low recoil long range LMGs
• DFR : LMG for ratting or flanking

[burnt halo]

PKP is low recoil but has abysmal spread

[cedar tendon]

Yeah but on bipod is a beast

[burnt halo]

ik bipod makes recoil non existent, but idk if it effects spread

[chilly jacinth]

Bipod isn't worth using

[burnt halo]

on snipers it is

[chilly jacinth]

No

If the snipers are even semi competent you're dead

[eternal lagoon]

Just started grinding the M1 garand and im wondering, howd i even get it and why do i have the Accursed Conduit skin?

[chilly jacinth]

Wait did you mean use it on a sniper?

Then it's literally useless

[burnt halo]

because it eliminates sway

[chilly jacinth]

Sway is non-existent

and holding breath does the same thing

[next onyx]

Unlimited and automatic helped me personally.

I'm super anal about precision and shit and I end up noticing it.

[burnt halo]

and besides masterkey on sws, is there any underbarrel worth using on any sniper?

might as well take the bipod

[next onyx]

Just use the stubby grip.

[burnt halo]

do accuracy boosting attachments matter on snipers? on other weapons it effects spread, but snipers shoot so slow, and already have extremely high accuracy, I'm not sure it matters

[vital quail]

On something like the xce bar where you can shoot pretty fast it can help

[burnt halo]

i do use the + accuracy muzzle on xce bar, but just because it doesn't have an extended barrel

also idk if i can't notice it, but it feels like ammo type on xce bar doesn't change fire rate

just looked up sorrows weapon stats and yeah all the ammo types have the same fire rate

[next onyx]

I just stress over moving accuracy and work over whatever improves accuracy.
