battlefield-2042

[pliant kelp]

Does the resupply xp farm still work

[spice iris]

I’m literally in it right now, yes. Any xp farm will work if it doesn’t have bots

[pliant kelp]

Is it good also in one now

[radiant pier]

How do these servers even work? Ppl just shoot around and resupply eachother?

[naive ember]

Its a fps dude

[spice iris]

Idk, I’m only in it while I try to figure out how to get these last achievements

[radiant pier]

Idfk how the resupply servers work bruv. Maybe theres something special to it

[sharp onyx]

How old is this game again?

[radiant pier]

4y i think?

[pliant kelp]

I heard the heli one got nerfed so this one probably too

[sharp onyx]

Got it. Alright, time to wait for BF6 for 4 years to drop the price to $2.

[arctic grove]

if they drop big maps like in 2042 then i will buy

[young panther]

whats the point in portal if the xp cap is like nothing

[pliant kelp]

Already got leaked that there are big maps

[harsh shuttle]

Ohh they nerfed it from yesterday, i cant get those points for battlepass like yesterday 🙁 any ideas ?

[spice iris]

The xp cap is only nothing IF there are no AI

[fading jay]

Im on 09 of the battle pass, is that all b6 stuff unlocked?

Bf6

[harsh shuttle]

if u want all BF6 you need to do it full LVL 60

[radiant pier]

Lvl 60 unlocks the final bf6 reward

[sleek grove]

nah

[radiant pier]

Im only on t16 so far 😭

[fading jay]

So nothing til lvl 60?

[spice iris]

1 every 10 levels

[fading jay]

Idm playing bc i bought this for 4 dollars at eb games 3 weeks ago

[harsh shuttle]

Bruh just look at the battlepass its there

[jovial saffron]

if you look at the battlepass and the pages it tells you which ones are for bf6

[radiant pier]

I was one of the idiots that preordered it 💔

[fading jay]

I was and all I see is bf5 and bfbc2

[harsh shuttle]

i feel u..

[young panther]

same but i got a good run out of it

[harsh shuttle]

just do it fully on lvl 60 if u want all BF6 rewards

[fading jay]

Sweet im playing rush with bots bc I need to unlock more attachments for a ton of guns

[harsh shuttle]

How many points are u able to do ?

[fading jay]

I don't even know how to check haha

[jovial saffron]

there is an xp cap playing against bots

[harsh shuttle]

Brother just click on free pass left top corner

[fading jay]

If I notice my weapons not progressing I'll stop

I wss talking about points mate

[harsh shuttle]

oh

well ima stick to helicopter xp grind

[fading jay]

These bots are pre difficult tbh

[pliant kelp]

I think I’m just going to farm with bots on breakthrough also will get weapon xp and less boring than resupply

[fading jay]

I find it so hard to use a sniper or gain ground

[tough folio]

i feel like bots are so boring to play against tho, unlocking everything, then having nothing to chase in the real game

[pliant kelp]

Yea went back to pvp I feel like xp farm lobbies are only good with a macro afk

[radiant pier]

Is it really better than resupply?

[harsh shuttle]

Not Now from hellis i got only 2-4 max so Its nerfed maybe
Now i again found resupply

[spice iris]

You won’t get anymore near as much xp, it’s capped in modes with bots

[harsh shuttle]

Im 10 minutes in so after 80 minuts ill give info

[radiant pier]

so what would u recommend for battlepass levels then, resupply or heli

[spice iris]

Resupply is probably better than heli, but tbh you would probably get more xp if you just found a non Ai portal server with a substantial amount of players

[radiant pier]

its so hard to find servers without ai. Feels like all populated servers use ai 💔

[spice iris]

Ikr, I wish it would let me actually host my own servers, and that they would remove persistent servers, because there are soooo many empty server with 0 players

[radiant pier]

because there are soooo many empty server with 0 players
they helped me finish the phantom program ee tho xd

[tough folio]

what is that easteregg, and does it give anything worthwhile

[radiant pier]

just player tags, charms and backgrounds. The new season added more steps to it. Probably has a weapon as a final reward

just look it up on yt, its quite simple. Can all be done solo

[fading jay]

If I've reached cap can I still unlock attachments via portal lobby?

[forest herald]

Feel like the last bf2042 patch devs should add all portal guns to all our warfare modes

Would be nice using as val, stg 44 and m249 in modern maps

[fading jay]

Ah u can sweet

[errant herald]

This game has been increasingly sweaty lately bro

[fading jay]

I cant for the life of me sniper, lmg,smg at all

Im stuck with ars i dno how to get better

[empty mulch]

practice is all

[dawn yacht]

.

[fading jay]

Yeah i need 2 forsure

Just gonna do one more match and chill for now

[pliant kelp]

I calculated for me it’s 100 huor in game to achieve max rank battlepass without challenges

[forest herald]

Smg and lmg are just varations of ar

[fading jay]

I find it hard to get to any point in yhr game without an ar, I get smoked

[radiant pier]

ac9 my beloved

[errant herald]

Bro there's no casual player base on this game

Everyone's running around like it's cod

Hard to get kills when u just die in 2 seconds

The battlefield 6 beta was actually fun and felt like battlefield

[tough folio]

complain more

[radiant pier]

sounds more like a skill issue tbh

[fading jay]

What is the ac9 type? @radiant pier

[radiant pier]

smg

[astral radish]

skill issue tbh

[fading jay]

Ah I'll try that next time

[radiant pier]

ac9 isn't a good range weapon tho, its meant for cqc

[fading jay]

Ah that's my issue, I cant get close enough

[radiant pier]

change ur playstyle then xd

[chilly jacinth]

High fire rate smg at range

[fading jay]

Im trying, I haven't played an fps since bfbc2 Or mw2 2009

[fringe oracle]

in bf2042 do exists below radar thing?

[chilly jacinth]

Yes

[idle crater]

it says in the free pass menu that the bf6 pistol skin thing "contains 4 items", how do i even see what these items are? i already got it but cant view

[fringe oracle]

heli physics in bf42042 are so weird, so awful but even in bf2042 physics are better than in bf6

[chilly jacinth]

You don't

[jovial saffron]

has the masterkey been removed ?

[radiant pier]

yes its broken

[jovial saffron]

oh dang i need some kills with it to unlock some guns

[radiant pier]

u were able to destroy any kind of vehicles with it including tanks with just a few shots xd. Was fun while it lasted

[jovial saffron]

trying to get the AK5C and need underbarel shot gun kills

[radiant pier]

gotta wait til they bring them back

i thankfully unlocked it just 1d before they removed it

[jaunty token]

it's still attached to the m416

[radiant pier]

Its probably a different version of the underbarrel shotgun. It was removed from all guns even if u had it already equipped

[jovial saffron]

is there another underbarrel shotgun i can use ?

[jaunty token]

probably, it's the m26 mass buck, but should work for underbarrel shotgun kills

also the m16

[dapper summit]

yknow 2042 would be more fun if it didn't randomly freeze every 10 seconds

[tough folio]

i honestly hate aa mains

[dapper summit]

for some reason I have to delete my config files everytime I restart the game and reconfigure my keybinds and graphics or the game is literally unplayable

[tough folio]

just sitting in the back of spawn with a wildcat ALL GAME is just weird

[normal stag]

maybe ur pc is just outdated

[radiant pier]

is ur driver up to date?

[modest lake]

hi anny have portal code for xp ammo box?

[dapper summit]

yes they are. I've already done all the common troubleshooting and this is a common issue noone has found a definitive solution for

[radiant pier]

whats ur specs?

[dapper summit]

Ryzen 5 5600X and a 9070XT and 32GB Ram at 3200mhz

[radiant pier]

doesn't that bottleneck the cpu a bit?

[wheat shadow]

weird, but very common. It's also deeply frustrating when people do that, because they are wasting so much potential for their own fun.

on almost every map there are various spots that are excellent for wildcatting, and you cycle between them based on how well your team is doing. I'll only ever retreat into spawn if my team is absolutely awful and can't hold any flags.

[dapper summit]

no. both are sitting at about 40~50% system load when playing the game on high settings 1440p 120fps

my PC is far more than just "enough" for 2042. the game just doesn't work right.

[harsh shuttle]

Bro i just did that 90 minute resuply and it sucks, helis are better i got 6 points after 90 minutes, better if you do 3-4 points every 15-20 minutes

[radiant pier]

ur cpu should be much higher than ur gpu since the game focuses on cpu heavily

[radiant pier]

got 6 points in a 20min match in 60v60 rush xd

[fading jay]

Having better luck with the lynx rn

Just going to do bots team death match and get 200 kills with 2 ar,smg,sniper just to have a few options tomorrow

[jovial saffron]

wait you have a mission for resupply ?

[harsh shuttle]

there is one on portal but its not best method now, yesterday i got from it 3 whole levels, but today only 6 points

[harsh shuttle]

bots?

[radiant pier]

none

[jovial saffron]

oh nice, whats the best one on there now ?

im about to jump in game

[radiant pier]

the best afk one is probably heli, the best normal one is prolly the 120 rush server

[jovial saffron]

im struggling to capture/neutralise 10 objectives in one round right now cos everyone is just running around getting kills and not doing objectives !

[radiant pier]

i got it done after 3rd match

[jovial saffron]

dang! i must ve realy unlucky

[dapper summit]

I just told you both components are nowhere near their performance limit
The game also runs fluently after I wipe my config, even on the highest settings. it just doesn't anymore after I restart it

[spiral holly]

You're better off on Close Quarters Conquest for that challenge

[jovial saffron]

yeah, i guess right ive been spamming jima cos i enjoy it so much haha

[spiral holly]

I suggest using a medic too or assault class

[strong thistle]

Trying 2042 for 1st time today is it at least decent ?

[dapper summit]

no

[jovial saffron]

i also get put with bots a lot on both team evenr though there was like 20k people on

[spiral holly]

No class. Why even comment on it if you don't like it?

[jovial saffron]

it is decent, better now i think with the new map and objectives to work towards

[dapper summit]

someone asked a question and I answered. I don't think not being a sycophant is against the rules here

[radiant pier]

yes, its pretty underrated imo

[spiral holly]

It's not, but no one cares for your shitty opinion.

[jovial saffron]

c'mon lads lets just chill !

[obsidian tide]

Might something be interfering with that, e.g. Controlled Folder Access?

[strong thistle]

I just wanna get the free shit for BF6 while not wanting to rip my eyes out lel

[radiant pier]

its very grindy if u want all rewards

[jovial saffron]

try and and the judge for yourself i guess

[forest herald]

They need to make portal conquest a permanent mode

[idle crater]

how do you see what items are in a pack? it says 4 items included

[dapper summit]

too bad, you better spend time in this dogshit shooter that not only sucks to play but also doesn't even work properly

[radiant pier]

skill + pc issue

[opal scaffold]

man, iwo jima last point in breakthrough is so tough to break in

[jovial saffron]

mine works fine

[dapper summit]

having a pc that could run this game thrice over is a user issue. suuure

the cope is unreal

[forest herald]

Proof?

[opal scaffold]

idk, u seems to be the only one with issue here

skill issue

[strong thistle]

Don’t matter to me, I like completing shit

[dapper summit]

a hundred other people posting the same problem is a google search away. not sure about that my friend

[opal scaffold]

pc issue

[fading jay]

Im happy even tho xp cap i can grind bots for weapon attachments and try new stuff out

[dapper summit]

the other people aren't here because they probably gave up on the franchise after trying to play this

[radiant pier]

60v60 rush on redacted 😩 gonna be juicy xp

[fading jay]

My last bf was bad company 2 for the 360

[jovial saffron]

dang is someone in here older than me !!!

[forest herald]

Unc time for bed

[fading jay]

Ye im 29

[obsidian tide]

You never know. Might be something unexpected.

For this game and other Frostbite engine games like to put profile data in the Documents folder. OneDrive, if present, and Windows Security's Ransomware Protection/Controlled Folder Access feature will interfere with anything written there.

Remind me if BF6 didn't do this for you, though.

[opal scaffold]

yea they should go and miss out and bf6, congrats to them

[swift oriole]

whats with the xp cap on portal games, does official servers have that issue?

[dapper summit]

zero reading comprehension

[forest herald]

Any servers with modified rules have an xp restriction

[opal scaffold]

u said giving up on bf franchise💔

that includes bf6

[violet otter]

My first battlefield was Battlefield 2 but bad company 1 was when I really got into the online

[swift oriole]

so if i play on official servers, can i get around that?

[forest herald]

Official servers always full xp unc

[fading jay]

Dno who to play between rao for recon or Paik

[dapper summit]

is this brainlet trying to respond to me?

[opal scaffold]

why is this unc still fighting the void

[forest herald]

Xm8 vr gud lmg its like an AR

[opal scaffold]

aren't there fullxp portal servers

[forest herald]

Dice needs to make final patch and add all portal guns to main game

I wanna use stg44 and fal in bf2042

[fading jay]

Im using the lynx rn, the default sniper i sucked with

[radiant pier]

yes

[forest herald]

Sniper only good in hardcore

Its 1 hit there like irl

[opal scaffold]

try dxr

barely any drops

with high power and long barrel

[swift oriole]

thats what i was trying to figure out earlier, but all servers i see under 100 latency had restrictions (australia) and if i finished a match i hit some xp cap.

[violet otter]

Anyone got the F2000 yet?

[forest herald]

Yes

[obsidian tide]

Do you want to attempt to find any way of dealing with this, or shall that plight of yours be ignored in favor of Game Broke, Devs Fix Now or else Devs Even More Shit?

[violet otter]

Any good?

[opal scaffold]

welp, ig u can go play some iwo jima

[fading jay]

After I unlock a few more attachments for the lynx I wss going to do 200 kills on mp9 then I'll try the dxr

[radiant pier]

when u hover over the servers it either says restricted, moderate or full xp. Only join the full ones

[forest herald]

Very good 0 recoil decent range but as with all bullpups u want to hit headshots

Or it lose out to stuff like a proper ar

[opal scaffold]

it's very worth if u rly like long range

[fading jay]

Im keen to try

[dapper summit]

I'm not sure what makes you think that I came here expecting to find a solution. I'm just the next in line pissing on a corpse of a game 🙂

[opal scaffold]

sws is more like, versatile sniper

i fancy it's underbarrel attachments a lot

[swift oriole]

most of them are restricted and two have moderate. none with full.

[radiant pier]

yeah most servers are using ai, its bs

[obsidian tide]

Reporting the problem was considered enough to go on. Suffering in the game is a given, but how much one suffers may be reduced.

[dapper summit]

well unfortunately EA asks me to play this game to get stuff in another game I actually want to play and that actually works properly, so no. I'm going to have to sit through this

[radiant pier]

they don't ask u to play anything lol

[obsidian tide]

It is implied.

How else will you own a Complete Product? With none of the content fragmented and taken from you?

[violet otter]

Surprising it doesn’t have any recoil. Usually F2000 is very high rate of fire

[forest herald]

No gun in bf2042 has any recoil

😭

[violet otter]

I thought it would play similar to the MTAR in this game

[obsidian tide]

BC2 F2000 be like.

[forest herald]

Nah mtar super nerfed in this game compared to bf4

[fading jay]

Whata is a good medium dmr that's easy on the trigger?

[radiant pier]

still a good gun

[violet otter]

BF4 mtar was good

[idle crater]

i love how 4 hydra missiles arent enough to kill a man

[forest herald]

Idk why people dont abuse m16a3 more this shit legit has 0 recoil up to 100m

[swift oriole]

the FOMO for Bf6 is already out of hand, did i miss anything?

do challenges in beta.
do it on Playatation.
do it again the second weekend also.
go watch twitch.
go complete a battlepass in a previous game.

[forest herald]

Ig cuz its portal gun

Bf4 i hated how they made m4a1 and m16 into burst

So trash

[obsidian tide]

Twitch Drop moment.

[harsh shuttle]

now i need 13500 xp for 1 point, everything is slow now

[fading jay]

I guess illl do 5 mins of ea dmr and figure it

[forest herald]

You can turn a dmr into an ar

With mag unlock for full auto

[radiant pier]

i still need 8.3k

[fading jay]

Which one is good to use if I use scar for ar

[harsh shuttle]

u will get there, i think week missions is the way

[fading jay]

Acudebtally left my host server and now global game quota exceeded god damn it pol

Lol

Ah there we go

[forest herald]

The last one you unlock

[forest herald]

The only gun that hits as hard as the scar is the g428

Its 75 dmg per shot

U can 2 tap reliably upper mid body

[fading jay]

ah what lvl do I need

[radiant pier]

which class has the scatter nades?

[forest herald]

Assault the black lady

[forest herald]

L ast dmr unlock

The dragunov is really good too but you need to play a bit to unlock it

No bad guns in bf2042 really everything 0 recoil and does shit ton of dmg. Only guns considered below avg are the portal xm8

Low dmg bad range high horizontal recoil for them portal xm8

But its only limited to bfbc2 portal modes so

[dapper summit]

one thing from 2042 I'll miss is being able to mod your weapon on the fly.
I guess it doesn't really work with the new attachment point score but they could let us create presets we can swap to in the middle of a fight

[radiant pier]

correction: i need 9.7k now 😭

[forest herald]

what level you is at

[vagrant glen]

yeah that feature was great

[forest herald]

im at lv 23

[green bridge]

Most automatic guns do around 20-25 damage from memory. You can pump off 5 bullets in 1 second. If your good kills will come fast. On the recieiving end plenty of times i have been hit and not killed. So its obviously not that easy. If you get the jump you have a good chance. Thats it

[forest herald]

for the battle pass

[dapper summit]

for a single point? that's insane

[pulsar meadow]

Exactly! Like changing the muzzle to something that stabalizes recoil when enemies are far then changing it back to something that increases rate of fire when playing close quarters is great

[dapper summit]

that's why I wish they made a compromise and let us switch between different presets while alive. that way you could have a "close combat" spec and "ranged combat" spec" for the same gun at least.

[dapper summit]

I hope this resets with the new week or something

[umbral thunder]

2042 battlepass is going to be a slog. All the sweats are out this morning.

[pulsar meadow]

Question does anybody here still play battlefield 1? Because I didn't find a section in the discord for the game

[radiant pier]

just completed t17

[fading jay]

I think i got enough attachments for the lynx, should I do mp9 or dmr unlocks next?

[forest herald]

battlefield 1 had more players than bf2042 before bf6 beta

bf1 is good game it's just stuck between the transitioning of bf to more casual friendly. In that game there are guns that take like 3 months to unlock and ridiculous requirements

[pulsar meadow]

What baffled me when playing bf1 few days ago after 2 years of not playing it is that the games stay full even after a new game starts like in operations a full campaign ends then a new one starts and only 2 or 3 players leave the game then new players fill their place, that wasn't the case when bfv came out and bfv was crap when it came out

[forest herald]

games with server browser usually suffer from hoster using "slot bots"

basically they use fake bots to make server appear full

there are always at least 5 to 10 "players" that never join the game

they are just there to boost player count

[pulsar meadow]

Hmmm that's interesting but wouldn't that be the case if the server was private? Because all the servers I play on say official

[pulsar meadow]

And that can be done on playstation not just on PC?

Because I play on playstation

[forest herald]

if it's official DICE server it's fine but if it's player rent it's all doing that

try bf3 sometimes it will tell you server is 61/64 but when you join it's maybe 20 players

the hosters use fake bots

[pulsar meadow]

Oh yea on playstation it's all dice servers no private servers are on that's why I miss the dlc maps so bad 😢 on the dice servers it's all the main maps they get repetitive

[neon pagoda]

what is the 2042 meta weapons in each category right now

[forest herald]

not sure about meta but it's universally agreeed that the avancys LMG is the best gun in the game

[neon pagoda]

thankyou, havent played since launch and wasnt sure

[forest herald]

basically all guns are within 0.5% performance of one another

[radiant pier]

smg: ac9
AR: ak5c (i think)
thats all i know

[forest herald]

avancys is basically an AR with LMG ammo count, AR reload speed and longer range

that shit is broken

[pulsar meadow]

My only issue with battlefield 1 right now is everyone in all servers are sweating their minds off while playing so it makes it hard for me to get back to playing the game properly when everyone I face is level 150 broken machine level 😂 💔

[forest herald]

basically all guns are at least A tier

just some are S tier due to being a bit better than the others

[neon pagoda]

Thanks guys

[forest herald]

when people do ranking, they usually exclude portal guns for some reason

[pulsar meadow]

So servers are full right now in bf 2042? In quick play since there's no server browser

[forest herald]

on PC there are a lot of 64 players server rn

and 3 maxed 128 players

you can get into iwo jima max 64p server in under 10 secs

[pulsar meadow]

Oh dang it I forgot I'm on ps4 and there's no cross gen
RIP lol

But I guess I'll still download it and try

[fading jay]

Ye when I was playing earlier so many people trying to run and slide loo

Lol

[forest herald]

yeah on ps4 you are only playing vs xbox

[pulsar meadow]

Yea unfortunately

[forest herald]

dont know why some console players turn off crossplay

[fading jay]

Bc keyboard and mouse

And more of a chance of game hackers

[pulsar meadow]

Probably because of fear of PC cheaters, on black ops 6 I turn it off because everytime I face a PC player and get wrecked I keep overthinking wether he was a cheater or he just had better movement and more frames lol

[forest herald]

bf is more on the casual side so even pc players are pretty chill

in crossplay lobby mostly console players top frag

[pulsar meadow]

It doesn't feel casual for me in bf1 games idk if it's because I'm sucking or because everyone there is sweating,like snipers never miss there

[forest herald]

bf1 is a decade old game everyone is a sweat

bf4 on pc you have dudes that main vehicles and rack up 150 kills a game

guarantee they not hacking just been no lifing vehicles since 2013

older games = only sweats stay to grind it out

newer games like bf2042 or even bf5 mostly casual and newer players

[radiant pier]

isn't bfv plagued with cheaters

[pulsar meadow]

That's so true like bomber plane players in bf1 make me wanna cry because holly molly they can fly and bomb like hardcore veterans 😂 💔

[forest herald]

weird thing in bf5 most hackers and cheaters are from the west

there are a lot of chinese players but they usually don't cheat

like most hackers ive seen on bf5 are from russia, germany or south ameriac

[pulsar meadow]

And the bigger issue is when the game has like 5 super sweaty players and they're all on the same enemy team and my team has mid players like lvl 80-100 then the game doesn't even take 10 minutes to finish

[forest herald]

yeah in older games the score are either 1000-0 or 30-0

there's no inbetween, you either get stomped or have a super close game

there's no stuf like 200-0 like in bf2042

[pulsar meadow]

Exactly and that's what takes the fun away when I come back to the game after a long time makes me wanna uninstall it but the nostalgia is too powerful

[forest herald]

lol yeah most people just adapt and play the objective

usually newer players try to compete with the sweats and keep running head first into the

but you will notice very fast that the sweats only play to farm kda

they will straight up leave the game once vehicles run out

[pulsar meadow]

Yea like they either fly planes and bomb the hell out of other players or they play snipers in the far edge of the map

[forest herald]

if you keep capturing obj they will get super mad and either leave or give u0p

recommend palying recon and keep capturing if you run into sweats

drop a beacon and keep coming back

[pulsar meadow]

I need like 3 months of non stop playing to adapt to that level of sweat but I have other games to play so I just accept the reality and try to have fun and feel the immersion and forget about deaths and kills

[forest herald]

eventually they will go out into infantry play and you will notice very quickly they suck at infantry plays

[pulsar meadow]

That's a great advice thanks alot I will definitely try it out

[forest herald]

there's this one dude on bf4 that will hop on nansha strike and spend all the availalbe boats

once they run out he just straight up leave

after getting like 70+ kills

they don't care win or lose just want to rack up kda

[pulsar meadow]

The most fun I had in a while was yesterday on operations in Verdun map when they pushed us to the last part of the map then I quickly hopped on that huge green canon and started bombing enemies left and right it was amazing

[forest herald]

good thing about breakthrough is one person can solo carry the game

or operations

[pulsar meadow]

That's why I miss dlc maps if I had the money I would definitely rent a server and put all the dlc maps on it

[pulsar meadow]

True that's what the sweats usually do

[light torrent]

When do the new weekly challenges come out?

[forest herald]

just remember BF is a slower game by nature and camping is actually optimal in this game just like irl

lke that person rileycs everyone was calling a hacker on twitter i checked and they have like a 1.7 kda

if i show new players a footage of the bf4 sweats they will probably have a stroke

legit dudes with 5 and 6 kda getting 150 kills a game

that's why they nerfed hard all vehicles in bf6

they don't want 100 + kills again with vehicles lol

[pulsar meadow]

Yep I have to remind myself alot to slow down while playing and not rush,but my biggest problem when playing is positioning like most of the time I either am in a position where I'm alone and I have 10 enemies on me or I'm with 10 allies against 3 enemies and my allies kill them instantly and I barley get an assist I try flanking I try jumping on objective from an airplane but it's always the same outcome either outnumbered or either outnumbering enemies

[forest herald]

remember minmap is broken in these kinda games you get all intels from it

one peek at the minmap and you can legit have a mini wall hack and know where all the enemies are

[modest lake]

ayo servers is down XD?

[pulsar meadow]

Yes! I forget to check the map alot

[modest lake]

none poertal work

[forest herald]

if you camp on a obj site constantly checking mini maps you can probaly pick up 10+ kills easily

because people will run headfirst while you are laready camping

and you can see them rushin at you on the minimap

[pulsar meadow]

Yea for sure

[fading jay]

Bsv is very verstaile

[spice iris]

Yeah bsv was my first t1 gun

[arctic grove]

add the game mechanics of BF6 into 2042 or maps from 2042 into BF6

[spice iris]

Both those options involve playing on 2042 maps, MOST of which are trash

[forest herald]

full auto bsv is broke

[sage stratus]

Jo is wer deutsch und Open für BF 2042 dm

[arctic grove]

i hate castles from resident evil and i hate ships from battlefield games, but yea i played today few matches in 2042 and its very good imo

[neon pagoda]

that person got proved cheating though, remember a lot of cheaters toggle and deliberately keep their KD lower than average or average when they buy their cheats its usually part of the guidance they give you

[forest herald]

cheating and having a sub 2.0 kda is crazy

i have 1.8 kda and im like the worst player ever lul

[neon pagoda]

Some private cheat sellers have it in their rules or you get banned from their service

its deliberate

[arctic grove]

import 2042 maps into BF6, man 2042 is so much fun

[neon pagoda]

@forest heraldwhich barrel for avancys

[arctic grove]

im sure the devs read the knowns webistes of cheating communities

[neon pagoda]

hopefully, remember though a lot of private cheats go undetected for years, because many are invite only

[arctic grove]

or unknown xD

[wheat shadow]

riley is a clip farmer, they play for hours and hours doing little but random flicks, then gather the clips where it actually worked.

[short yoke]

As someone who put over 500 hours into 2042 ima just say this enjoy because it wasn’t always like this 😂

[wheat shadow]

the worst cheaters are the ones who are decent players, but give themselves an advantage through tight-cone aimbots, and improved awareness. They're so hard to catch because they're indistinguishable from better players

rage hackers are whatever

[forest herald]

either champion or arcom muzzle break

[neon pagoda]

thanks

[forest herald]

then if you want fast reload use high power mag

[arctic grove]

i only watch jackfrags he has solid feetback on games

[wheat shadow]

there's someone who uses a name like NFROZEEEEEEN who ragehacks on EU servers and has multiple account bans. They are so obvious they just get banned every time.

[forest herald]

and it's an lmg that you wanna use as an AR so use the underbarrell that makes it more accurate while moving

[fading jay]

270 more kills to go til thr bsv extended mags 🙁

[forest herald]

while the aavancys is the best LMG in the game, it's not like 200% better than say the xm8

maybe 5% to 10% better

i always use the xm8 because it's my fav gun since bfbc2

it's not the best but it looks cool and sounds cool

[wheat shadow]

it's been so interesting in the last few days when people are asking for weapon recommendations and I'm like... they're kinda all pretty well balanced at the moment, so pick whatever, I have my favourites, but they're not like "meta" choices.

[forest herald]

yeah there are definitely some guns that are SSS tier but most guns in this game are S tier anyways

you can get 50 kills with either the xm8 or avancys

none of the guns have any real recoil, you just pretty much pick out what looks the coolest to you

[neon pagoda]

with the way softlock works these days and natural aim offsets, its incredibly hard to spot, you need to frame by frame 60fps videos measure the response times and check for like 2-3 frame soft locks from like 2-4 FOV locks very annoying long process, but normally, if you think someone is cheating, they probably are. The amount of sneaky bois is massive, and remember statista proved it, around 31% of players in any FPS are cheating

[forest herald]

for AR my fav is M16, LMG its xm8 and for smg its p90

[keen briar]

Aside from finishing the weekly missions, is there a quicker way to burn through the battle pass? Really just wanting the Battlefield 6 dear, due to having extreme FOMO. However, 2042 is meh.

[forest herald]

none of those guns are the "best" but they perform great

[keen briar]

Gear*

[forest herald]

there are servers that run objective only with 3000 tickets

you get 50000 xp per game, just by hopping on a heli and capture xp, let the other team recap

do this over over again for 3000 tickets for 50000 xp

not sure why you wanna bore yourself out tho lol

[wheat shadow]

I tend to give people the benefit of the doubt, but 2042 in particular is in a very weird place right now, where lots of people are playing it either for the first time, or returning after a few dozen hours 4 years ago. I'm used to dying mostly to high rank players, and suddenly I'm getting killed more by lvl<100 people, which is normally my signal to be suspicious, but that feels unfair at the moment

[keen briar]

Yeah, I've actually been on those servers, especially the heli one

However, it seems like its not doing anything on the progression. Barely making it through one card per match.

[forest herald]

i think DICE may have hot fixed it

[arctic grove]

put BF6 shooting into 2042 , put a sticker on it like its bf 6

[forest herald]

they put a restricted xp on those servers after the first day

[keen briar]

There ya go. Went back to the iwa jima grind and have been getting more xp, but its the same when it comes to progressing. Like its purposely stunted.

[harsh shuttle]

fck me so many peoples cant fly helis in heli xp farm servers OMG

[wheat shadow]

maybe spend some time grinding your FOMO away, don't give EA that power over you 😄

[forest herald]

to be fair, there are 60 tier to the pass and realistically speaking you only need to play 3 matches a day to level up once?

so their goal is probably having people get 1 level a day for 2 months

to get max pass

[keen briar]

Can't help it, I actually enjoyed the bf6 beta. I know the actual will consume me

[forest herald]

I'd say if you don't enjoy it but need the bf6 rewards, play 3-4 bf2042 games a day, level up once tier on the battle pass and log off

[arctic grove]

im noob at a plaiins and i flew few today

[forest herald]

but if you do love battlefield esp 2042 you can probably get the entire pass in less than 3 weeks lol

[wheat shadow]

I liked it too, I have pre-ordered, I will play it a lot. I play 2042 pretty much every day and I enjoy grinding the seasons, but out of all of the seasons, I think I use exactly zero of the cosmetics 🙂

[opal scaffold]

god damn it, i got stopped by iwo jima last point in breakthrough 3 times in a row now

[crimson brook]

Last point is usually the hardest

[forest herald]

for the people grinding out battle pass while playng official servers, remember capturing a point is like 500 pt

[wheat shadow]

maybe I use one boris skin that came from a season pass, but certainly none of the weapon skins.

[keen briar]

I was big into it when it came out, but it never lived up to a real battlefield experience. Im grinding away for the bf6 stuff. Im great at flying if you need a pilot.

[forest herald]

that's getting 10 kills

[wheat shadow]

My name here is my EA ID, please feel free to add me, I play evenings on EU servers 😄

[arctic grove]

The mead grinder in 2042 feels less stresfull that it is in BF6, you get burned out very fast in BF6

[forest herald]

if you just obj capture and camp for kills every match, you get about 4 notches per game

[wheat shadow]

and I love gunning for pilots!

[forest herald]

that's what i'm doing

[opal scaffold]

man we pushed too their last point within 15min, and we stuck at the last point for another 20min😭

[forest herald]

bf2042 maps are massive, bf6 maps as we know are tiny

the biggest map in bf6 beta is liberation and it's like 1.2km? that's like not even half the size of manifest lol

manifest is pushing 3km

[arctic grove]

i mean there is no stress, but you dont want to come back into this small maps ever again

[forest herald]

yeah i really dislike the smaller maps

[keen briar]

Truly no idea what servers Im in 😅 in the Arabian peninsula. I just pray I get matches lol. My EA/ PSN is same as my discord. Feel free to add.

[forest herald]

i want big maps! more objective and less shooting lol

[crimson brook]

Bf6 is probably stuck with small maps forever

Or they decide to make big maps with less destruction

[wheat shadow]

I'll fire up my PC and send you an invite shortly. I can get you into the well populated EU servers 😄

[forest herald]

operation firestorm is massive but that's a bf3 map

[keen briar]

I got hooked on Cairo and Gibraltar though, very well done maps. Im hoping we get new iconic maps. Game devs ride hard on nostalgia. At least give me a remake of Backstab from BF2 or a bridge too far.

[opal scaffold]

small maps + no recoil + good ttk = bad experience

[forest herald]

yeah,i was getting 70 kills a match on those smaller maps but didnt have that much fun

[opal scaffold]

for God sake give this game some recoil for once

[forest herald]

because i felt like i was farming newer players

[opal scaffold]

like we went from bf1 recoil to lower recoil than cod

that's truly smth else

[forest herald]

bf4 recoil is perfect

every gun has a distinct recoil

even the small and big galil

[opal scaffold]

they should've changed who ever is responsible for recoil after 2042, not keeping it

[crimson brook]

Bf4+all maps and vehicles from 2042 + attachment system please

[forest herald]

I do say that some recoil changes in bf2042 were pretty good. Like the aek in bf4 was god like with no recoil and in bf2042 it's just middle of the pack with nerfed recoil. Same with the mtar

it makes people want to try other guns

in bf4 if you sweat you need to run AEK

[opal scaffold]

mhmmm they are okay ig, but most of the guns in 2042 still beam at 50 or even 75m

[forest herald]

that gun is broken

[forest herald]

their philosophy is, if every gun is broken with no recoil then every gun is balanced lol

[opal scaffold]

🥀

[forest herald]

like the AN94 in older bf were known for high fire power and 0 recoil at the exchange of lower fire rate

[crimson brook]

Recoil should be randomized every match to prevent everyone playing the same "meta" guns

[forest herald]

but in bf2042 every gun has 0 recoil and high fire power lol

so like no one even use the an94

[crimson brook]

Not true tho, tried lmg?

[forest herald]

yes i main xm8

[crimson brook]

Compare with and without bipod

[opal scaffold]

wdym not true, lmg beams

[forest herald]

to be fair i do play on PC

so aiming is trivial with mouse and keyboard

[opal scaffold]

oh he controller player

[crimson brook]

Same. I have to use bipod for long range bursts

Lcmg

[forest herald]

on xm8 i'm using a chinese red dot, i can hit targets up to 75m

[opal scaffold]

okay cuz why are u expecting it to beam at 100m+

[forest herald]

100m + is a bit harder but doable in burst

[crimson brook]

Single fire sure

[crimson brook]

I don't. I'm saying it doesnt

[opal scaffold]

its already beams at 50m+ ish

as if that isn't low recoil enough

[forest herald]

yeah the xm8 is one of the worser lmg

but even then it's a laser canon like most of them lol

[cinder vigil]

how do I get better at battlefield? any tips?

[deep lintel]

Is there a fix for controller ? All controls are off like it’s glitched

[spice iris]

Time, you just gotta get used to the movement and maps, assuming you can aim that is

[violet otter]

Stay with your squad and play the objective, learn what each class does and don’t play it like cod.

[crimson brook]

Play engineer and hunt tanks

Until you learn not to fear them

[cinder vigil]

what does assault do?

isnt that the closest class to cod gameplay

[forest herald]

play slower, check minimaps and play objective

[opal scaffold]

do flanks

and with subsonic builds

they will be clueless

[forest herald]

the best farming strat in bf since older games are standing still, check minimaps for red dots and bum rush lol

easiest 4 kills of your life

they gave newer bf games all these mechanics like tactical sprint, slide and faster jump.... just for standing still and camp to be the most optimal gunplay

😭

[violet otter]

Mainly pushing the objective and more aggressive play as you can self heal and have extra grenades or movement like with sundance or one of the others.

[opal scaffold]

at least they kinda limited usefulness of slide cancel and hopping like its cod

[forest herald]

nerfing shotgun recoil while b hopping is next step

it needs to track as you jump lol

[violet otter]

Wingsuiting around with the C5 and blowing up tanks with sundance still one of my favourite things to do

[forest herald]

scatter nade in redacted 128

so fun

[opal scaffold]

we make energy outta nowhere with this one

💀

[cinder vigil]

so the conquest 64 mode has all of the battlefield maps?

even older ones?

[raven lance]

any1 know when the week 2 challenges release?

[violet otter]

I remember launch of 2042 she was pretty crazy with all the scatter grenade variants

[cinder vigil]

I cant complete the week 1 challenges because I need to unlock incendiary grenades lmao

[forest herald]

yeah but it uses bf2042 guns loadout

if you want say use bf1942 guns need to go to portal or wait for them to release official queue for it like last week

that's why i have been advocating for DICE to do one big last patch and add all portal guns to main bf2042 game

so we can use stuf like Scar-H , stg44, xm8 smg and M249 in bf2042 maps

[chilly jacinth]

That requires more work

[forest herald]

REEEEEEEEEEEEEE MORE WORK

[chilly jacinth]

than what they're willing to put in

[fading jay]

Almost got enough attachments for my classes to give public lobbies a try!

[forest herald]

you can try bf3 guns by going through portal bf3 server

try the m16 you will get hooked best feeling ar in the game

[opal scaffold]

eh, some players are worse than bots honestly

[fading jay]

I tried to find bfbc2 and bf3 maps but couldn't find obe

One.*

[forest herald]

have crossplay turned on?

[fading jay]

Yeah!

[forest herald]

and you on current gen or old gen console

[fading jay]

Current

[forest herald]

weird maybe it's diff portal browser on console

[fading jay]

Probs cause of being in aus

[forest herald]

on pc there are like 60 servers rn

[fading jay]

Nah should be the same

I can dl it on my laptop tomorrow and checj

Check*

[karmic cairn]

So……we all here just because of skins?

[forest herald]

nah i actually like the game lol

not as much as say BF4 but it's a good game in 2025

[chilly jacinth]

Im here to T1 the last guns

[forest herald]

launch was terrible but now it's a good game

[fading jay]

I bought the game irl for 3 dollars b4 the beta and couldn't find a game, now thanks to this battlepass I can

[karmic cairn]

Really not a fan of 2042, just here for the skins, the grind is brutal….

[fading jay]

Only have bf2 and bfbc1 to compare it too so the games fine to me

[opal scaffold]

tbf, yea, but after revisiting the game 2042 anit half bad

[pearl ridge]

They fucking ruined Iwo Jima

And I’m pretty sure it’s because they put it in this game

So all the annoying mechanics are just… ugh

[forest herald]

to be fair Iwo Jima in bf2042 plays like a bf4 map

[karmic cairn]

Game was free on ps plus, at least they game the pass away free also

[forest herald]

I like that lul

[pearl ridge]

Terribly?

[forest herald]

yeah but the vibe is there

[pearl ridge]

Because that’s my experience with 4 maps

[forest herald]

anything bf4 is W

[opal scaffold]

yea, like, name one or two

[chilly jacinth]

Has Iwo Jima ever been good though

[opal scaffold]

i do wish there are more cover between point and point

[pearl ridge]

Vehicle drops, every gun having long-ass ranges, lock-ons everywhere, specialists being specialists, helicopters

[forest herald]

yeah it feels like BF4 so it's a bit sweaty

but i like it lol

[karmic cairn]

Who remembers the close quarters maps from bf3? Ziba Tower, ScrapMetal….would love to see them return, real meat grinders

[pearl ridge]

I played enough V to know how a V map is supposed to flow and this ain’t it

[fading jay]

Im getting used to bf gameplay again, jus need to be in a party and communicate

[pearl ridge]

They should’ve remade Amiens or something

[fading jay]

I hope huge maps for bf6 I really enjoy bf because each game feels like a journey

[pearl ridge]

At least that doesn’t have aircraft

[opal scaffold]

honestly it's probably the under utilization of these features in my games with iwo jima that i barely see those as a problem beside the guns

[forest herald]

bf2042 iwo jima is probably how most bf6 gonna feel like. Usually when a company release a map this late into a game cycle it's always to test the water for the next ne

[fading jay]

Ea match feels like*

[karmic cairn]

Flood zone

[opal scaffold]

guns are definitely ugh

[fading jay]

I like the lynx

[forest herald]

they fixed the lynx

it works as it should now

[pearl ridge]

Cancer.

[opal scaffold]

circling back no recoil

[pearl ridge]

There is only one good launch map for BF4 and that’s Zavod

[forest herald]

spawn LAV camp the bridget get 100 kills? you don't like that lululul

[pearl ridge]

Bf4’s map selection shittiness is only outdone by that of 2042, and at least they actually fixed some of 2042’s maps to be marginally less obnoxious

[karmic cairn]

Lancang dam

[forest herald]

bf4 maps are basically DICE saying "every bs goes"

but that's part of the charm

[pearl ridge]

The best launch map selection in the franchise is definitely 1’s. Even Suez is kind of fun when it flows right.

[undone gazelle]

Why game keeps crashing on ps5?

[forest herald]

to be fair i'm biased, my fav bf map ever is bandar desert

that map is 6km long?

goated map tbh

[opal scaffold]

augeh... man i just

i just can't seem to like suez

[mortal mica]

Can you server sellect like bfv and bf1 have?

[forest herald]

you need to be brave to like suez

[cinder vigil]

Im actually really getting into this game

its just super fun

[opal gulch]

Any reason we are loading only 3 players lobbies with my friends ? Anytime we try to access a conquest or something. Only way to get a real game was to go on portal

[fading jay]

Happens to me with just myself, jus happens sometimes

[opal gulch]

Damn. We keep getting it and it kinda is unfun

[arctic grove]

Is anyone else finding on: Week 1, Tier 3: Objectives Captured or Neutralised 0/10 keeps resetting as each time I get close the game crashes!?🤯

[wispy nexus]

That's the map with my longest headshot in any bf game and I got it on PS3 of all systems. Just under 2400m if I remember correctly.

[keen raven]

You need to do it in the same game

[forest herald]

yeah that map is the biggest map out of all bf map

[arctic grove]

@keen raven That's nuts😳

[fading jay]

Im going yo host a bfbc2 server tomorrow, hope I can get people to come in

[arctic grove]

@keen raven Are you sure, why would my game create an error on PS?

[keen raven]

Don't know, but i have the same on PC, so i just took for granted that you need to do it in the same game

[arctic grove]

@keen raven I literally had 9/10 and the game crashed and created an Error report on my PS5!

[sick valley]

is there anything to speed the incen grenade challenge process like holy

[hearty basin]

Exposure is probably the best map in the game

[radiant pier]

why do ppl name their server full xp then slap ai in it 😭

[arctic grove]

@sick valley REDACTED as there's frequently bottle necks, 😉

@radiant pier Insufficient players

[sick valley]

does it work in ai lobbies? cuz imma go crazy

[arctic grove]

@sick valley No, if it's Solo bot it doesn't count, tried it myself, 😣

[fading jay]

Why was my comment deleted? I didn't swear or anything

Id like an explanation please shadow mod, very weird.

[sick valley]

😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭

long day ig

[arctic grove]

@sick valley The mist that you can do there is unlock attachments & master weapons, 😉

@sick valley * most

[sick valley]

oh i thought weapons gl wont count

thanks! <3

[mortal mica]

Can you server sellect like bfv and bf1 have?

[arctic grove]

@sick valley Your welcome, I did the majority of my unlocks there through Breakthrough Exposure, same bot pattern and you always start top right side of the map.

[fading jay]

I got a weird glitch trying to join a bfbc2 server, csnt choose a class or spawns, global quota?

Weird profile pic

Didn't say body, okay derrick

[sick valley]

cqc conq with incen gl and nade pray for me

[pliant kelp]

Watched a hole movie while doing xp resupply farm 😂

[fading jay]

Gl

[arctic grove]

@sick valley Just remember, use it enclosed or tight areas, also that smoke g will extinguish them, you'll still get initial damage.

How can i get the exp code from a Server? I searched for 2hrs now

[fading jay]

How does bf3 and bfbc2 maps on servers work for xp and I dont see if this bf3 server has better graphics than the old one?

[arctic grove]

@sick valley You can double GL with Angel as he replaces Ammo, 😉👍

[harsh shuttle]

now i need 15k xp for one BP point

[radiant pier]

what tier

[real ether]

im tier 19 and i need about 11k for one BP point

[fading jay]

How does bf3 and bfbc2 maps work

[jovial saffron]

dang how long did you grind for that ?

[river hound]

New to this discord , is it okay to link up with people to play ?

[sick valley]

finished it in one match in cqc that gl was a savior

i was 400/1000 before

[fading jay]

Im on tier 11

[jovial saffron]

dang i must have a life then haha

[fading jay]

I played for like 7 hrs

Jus got done

I spent most of it dying thi

Tho

[jovial saffron]

yeah ive only done about 4 hrs im on 9

[arctic grove]

@sick valley AWESOME, really chuffed it worked out for you, 😁🏆

Tier 14 for me, got time to waste, I'm sad, 😂

[normal stag]

Is hz like br?

[neon pagoda]

what are the meta characters these days

[wheat shadow]

honestly depends what kind of playstyle you want

[neon pagoda]

i remember blasco was super strong at launch, and so was lis

dunno if its still the same

falck was the strongest support after angels removal of armour

dont remember much else

[wheat shadow]

if you want to do close quarters running and gunning, it's hard to beat Falck since you can carry ammo crates and heal yourself

if you want to take down vehicles, Lis is good if you can fly the tv missiles, otherwise Crawford is pretty good

if you want to maximise the amount of exploding things you can carry, sundance wins (her ability grenades, plus the grenade launcher gadget, plus a regular grenade slot)

[neon pagoda]

yeah sundance and mackay were th best back in day probably still are i assume

zain was kinda niche

[wheat shadow]

I'm doing the Zain T1 grind at the moment and it's taking quite a while :/

[tough star]

9250 XP for 1 point... Come on Dice, WTF? I'm only tier 15, next will be 30000XP for a point ?

[regal sparrow]

cant do my last weekly mission because i havent unlocked the incendiary nade yet :\

[tough star]

They need to let 6500 - 7000 XP for a point, it won't be too frustrating to lvl up ...

[frail sandal]

Looking for a BF Guru, Had constant DirectX crashes in BF6, now BF 2042 is doing the same, Did all regular things like drivers Updated, Verification of files, Uninstalled and re-installed game, At Wits end.

[pearl ridge]

Maybe they’re trying to make it so that challenges provide a baseline progression amount to make sure the shitbuckets don’t get the attack planes before everyone else

[tough star]

Yes, but in this case, they just needed to put attack planes on the last tiers...

[wheat shadow]

have you done a "DDU" of your GPU drivers at any point?

[pearl ridge]

Went apeshit with the shotgun just now. Got tired of picking heads at mid range with the lynx and got in their faces

[frail sandal]

Yes, I have

[pearl ridge]

It’s funny, the 880 used to be literally useless and now it’s one of the strongest shotguns in the whole series

[harsh shuttle]

im doing 21 and i need 15k xp now this is rly long 45 day grind i hope the weekly missions boost that so good

[tough star]

Hope for double cp weekends

XP*

[radiant pier]

have u tried uninstalling or repairing directx directly?

[radiant pier]

the xp requirement just get too much too fast man. Its ridiculous. They either gotta nerf it or make multiple double xp weeks/weekends

[regal sparrow]

just keep doing the weeklies + if you play decently you can easily rack up 25-35k xp per match (conquest)

[pliant kelp]

It’s going to be 7 weeks of playing to get to tier 60

[frail sandal]

I'll try that again, Microsoft said my directx was up to date

[pliant kelp]

The tier 60 skin got to be rare when bf6 drops

It’s almost a part time job to get to it

[violet otter]

Once more of the weekly challenges open up probably wont take too long

[heady holly]

does the xp required per pass tier keep increasing non stop ? this is insane

[harsh shuttle]

yeah RIP

[frail sandal]

@radiant pier Ran dxdiag in Run Dialog, no problems

[finite bay]

hey DICE can you give us more points x game please? cause right now being always at the top of the leaderboard gives you max 2-3 points and it honestly suckssss

every level needs 10 points

[chilly jacinth]

They haven't changed it ever

good luck

[finite bay]

this might be the most grindy pass across all games no joke

[obsidian tide]

Now do it over 100 tiers instead of 60.

Back when Seasons existed, this was mandatory to get the Tier 1 Badge for the Season Pass.

Buying any tier above basic for those Passes would potentially invalidate the chance to get the Tier 1 Season Badge.

[chilly jacinth]

Seasons were also way longer though

[finite bay]

yeah ok but with the premium pass you had more challenges if I'm not mistaken

[chilly jacinth]

Slightly more xp no more challenges

[finite bay]

and also, who cares about the pass on 2042 im playing only for bf6 skins, I skipped the last three seasons probably💀

[heady holly]

just let me buy battle pass skip lmfao

[finite bay]

for real

[radiant pier]

the point system just feels so demotivating

[pliant kelp]

You have to play everyday if you want to be efficient lol

At least I’m kinda enjoying it

[elder merlin]

Battlefield 2042 for 3 dollars on steam doesn’t feel worth it at all … I played 89 mins of this to earn some rewards and at this point for my mental health I’d rather just pay 20 dollars a skin then play this 3 dollar game

[pliant kelp]

Good choice

Im sick right now so might as well grind the battlepass for the ugly weapon skins

[elder merlin]

The game is just so bad after coming from bf6 to this just reminds me so much of hardline …..

[chilly jacinth]

That's odd since bf4 and hardline are basically identical

[pliant kelp]

Im going to buy the phantom edition just in case the bp system stays the same

Need those 25 tier skips

[harsh shuttle]

im going insane from the grind

doing lvl 22 and 15k XP for ONE FCKING POINT

[arctic grove]

Max level confirmation bias

[slender drum]

Tier 14 im waiting on the new week challenges. Im having fun only because this my main game. Can't wait for BF6.

[onyx skiff]

Anyone know how I can transfer my save from ps to pc ?

[slender drum]

Can you?

[pliant kelp]

How expensive were bf battle passes

[chilly jacinth]

As long as your accounts are linked to the same EA account

[onyx skiff]

Idk I’m asking because I just downloaded bf 2042 on pc and I’m lvl one but on ps I’m high lvl

[onyx skiff]

They are but nothing is transferred

[slender drum]

That wouldn't matter. I don't think you can transfer your rank and stats

[chilly jacinth]

Then you're not logged into the right account

cross progression is a thing

[slender drum]

Two different platforms

[real ether]

not much, its pretty fast once you do all ribbons in a single match

[chilly jacinth]

Are you playing through steam?

[onyx skiff]

I think so

I bought it on steam

[chilly jacinth]

Then you steam account needs to be linked to the EA account

that your ps account is linked to

[minor elm]

https://www.reddit.com/r/Battlefield/comments/1mmtu6u/bf_2042_is_better_than_bf6_beta/ people like these exist

[onyx skiff]

Thanks I’ll get it a try

[lilac dust]

First time properly using the crossbow since I just unlocked the level 14 skin from BP. Explosive bolt feels nice 😎

[slender drum]

It won't matter. That's like saying I bought bf2042 on Xbox and PS how can I transfer my rank and stats over to each other. You cant

[arctic grove]

It’s ok, some people have shit tastes 🤣

[onyx skiff]

Bro cross progression

It’s a thing in games

[chilly jacinth]

Brother this game has cross progression

[misty briar]

ppl not playing the full game cry about maps. im always surprised how these ppl are able to survive lol

reddit is bad but i put discord close behind that. ive seen takes on the game that are insane

def happens more in the general chat

[harsh shuttle]

yeah i trying avoid those dimensions, so i can enjoy my thing 😄

but i went on reddit for some advices on XP grind, but its all nerfed and who the fuck knew u need already 15k xp even on lvl 22

[slender drum]

I did some research. I dont know how true it is but it says you need the cross gen version for both pc and ps

[misty briar]

i played blaso on redacted, ended up 120-7 and got around 24k xp. it is indeed a grind

round took forever. doing that everyday is kinda exhausting

[slender drum]

Okay nevermind I was wrong

[heady holly]

bro is this real ????

[astral spire]

there are battlefield 6 items in battllefield 2042 in pass, is that correct? ill have that items in battlefield 6?

[harsh shuttle]

i posted screen in screen room u can have look

https://discord.com/channels/140933721929940992/258372071086620674

[heady holly]

bro you make me question my commitment

[snow parcel]

Double xp weekends?

[harsh shuttle]

i already question my life

[harsh shuttle]

i hope idk i started this game after year of not playing

[obsidian tide]

So long as the EA Account is shared between links, it serves as a lynchpin outside of platform-specific achievements or something.

You have already found this out, it seems.

[heady holly]

at lvl 59 it will be like 35k XP per point... aka 350k xp needed just for lvl 59-60 LMAO i think ill skip the skins xD

[slender drum]

Yeah I dont know why his isnt working

[harsh shuttle]

well we need try to find some info about higher levels..

[tough folio]

i love watching battlefield old heads have meltdowns cause the game doesnt playout like its infantry only milsim

[rugged citrus]

Ive already moved onto arma reforger

Much much better

[heady holly]

just following the pattern, lvl 1 is 5k and 20 is 15k so should be 35k or so per point near lvl 60

[obsidian tide]

They desire 83 instead.

[fading jay]

Hosting bf3 lobby if anyones down.

[rugged citrus]

I love how arma is more battlefield 2 reminiscent than battlefield rn

[harsh shuttle]

i know but do u know how many XP u needed on older battlepass?

[heady holly]

yeah both are clunky kekw

[heady holly]

no never touched that game since launch lol

[harsh shuttle]

ill try to find something

[obsidian tide]

Them combined arms roles and responsibilities, though.

[marble bluff]

So I just got 2042 for the BF6 skins. How long would it take to get to tier 60 of the battle pass until the release? Are the weekly challenges enough for it?

[obsidian tide]

Weeks.

About 2.

[rugged citrus]

You people bought 2042 for SKINS in bf6

What.

[harsh shuttle]

its only 3 dollars

[heady holly]

idk I had fun combined arms in bf6 beta with my friends

[obsidian tide]

And it was on sale.

[astral spire]

me too its 3euros

[heady holly]

teamplay was top tier

[rugged citrus]

Even if its there for 50 cents i wouldnt do that 😭

[marble bluff]

Yeah, I got it for like 8 bucks

[obsidian tide]

KOMO intensifies.

[heady holly]

just let my pay for pass skips lmao

[rugged citrus]

Its no different from buying a skin pack except you have to grind this one

[tough folio]

thats the funniest part, they come to 2042 knowing its not what they like, then cry in all chat that it isnt bf6

all for skins lol

[heady holly]

blame ea for making us play this mess

[harsh shuttle]

i just cry its too much grind for my heart

[rugged citrus]

I never got the hype for skins tbh

[obsidian tide]

"Open Beta better."

Yes, we know. You are still getting the skins here.

[pliant kelp]

Oh I thought the xp increase would reset daily this is insane

[rugged citrus]

Maybe im not a crazy 11 year old skin-obsessed tiktok attention span gamer but what gives ig

[obsidian tide]

Content must be had in the desired product. Or else, loss and depression over having failed to make the game more complete in ownership.

[marble bluff]

Just two? I mean, there are 60 tiers... Do you mean two weeks of everyday gaming?

[rugged citrus]

they're skins, you only look at them in gameplay and make no difference

[obsidian tide]

Within 2 weeks assuming enough ribbons ground.

[pliant kelp]

2 weeks of no living?

[heady holly]

2 years maybe yes

[obsidian tide]

Perhaps. The satisfaction of Owning them is more important than the asset itself. The feeling that you paid your tithe.

[tough folio]

i highly doubt bf6 skins are gonna be uniquely different enough to be worth getting. i like 2042 skins cause some of them have really cool designs and some actually change the model of whatever your using

[stiff loom]

I think unlocking cosmetics is fun, wouldn't buy them tho

[tough folio]

its def that for some. people feel like they need to collect stuff

[obsidian tide]

2 weeks, 3-6 hours per day.

[marble bluff]

I know lol, tell that to my past self grinding those super rare tank skins in BF1 😂

[shell jetty]

Yes pls

[obsidian tide]

Also, everyone hates deliberate content fragmentation. So there is pressure to avoid it.

[shell jetty]

Xp increase is bs

[tough folio]

i think bf6 stuff should be left in bf6, and the bf6 content should be easier to get

[pliant kelp]

If people play only for the skins they better can work and buy something in shop lol

[tough folio]

but i get they are trying to ride the hype train till oct

[stiff loom]

I got all the week one challenges done and got to tier 10 so I guess it's break time until the next set of challenges come out

[limpid edge]

its smth to do at least

even if you cba to collect it all

[obsidian tide]

Where did $1800 USD go?

[rugged citrus]

i dont know man, getting skins like with the phantom program seems a lot more rewarding than buying the worlds worst battlefield game to grind for them

[heady holly]

my guess is they force us to play bf2042 for the skins so when bf6 launch everyone will LOVE the game and not cry about anything because we will all have 2042 PTSD

[finite bay]

wait WAIT

[harsh shuttle]

well its the overall the hype about BF6 coz it looks like absolute banger, and it will be if they dont listen to streamers with battleroyal and keep skins grounded..

[finite bay]

the more you progress more xp are required to get a point?

[harsh shuttle]

Yes

[finite bay]

nah don't tell me

[harsh shuttle]

https://discord.com/channels/140933721929940992/258372071086620674

[finite bay]

nah there is a cap, must be

[marble bluff]

The phantom program was absolutely nuts! I did both, BF4 and BF1, it was an awesome but tedious experience

[heady holly]

yeah about 350k XP from lvl 59 to lvl 60

good luck

[tough folio]

i turn 21 in october. fresh out of my associates degree, im already over the skin collecting addictions and fomo in the gaming industry, i just play what i think is fun, and buy a skin if i want it

[finite bay]

WHAT?

bro are they for real?

[harsh shuttle]

well it will be better with points from weekly missions coz its almost free

[obsidian tide]

Yes. No fixed XP tiers.

[finite bay]

getting max level on halo infinite was 10x easier wtf

[pliant kelp]

With xp increase it’s best to no life now take a break and do all the challenges on week 7 right?

Bc that’s my plan

[finite bay]

cmon man...

[chilly jacinth]

you want the weekly bonus challenge

[harsh shuttle]

do the challenges every week

[finite bay]

this is a big L

[tough folio]

there is no way thats true bro lol

[harsh shuttle]

that bonus 10 points will be huge for us

[finite bay]

making us grind on the worst battlefield

[pliant kelp]

Oh shit forgot

[limpid edge]

do the challenges make much xp?

[harsh shuttle]

not xp but points

[stiff loom]

It seems like with the XP scaling up they want you to pace yourself and mostly get tiers through the challenges

[finite bay]

actually if you plan to play even after completing weekly challenges it might really be almost the same thing

no joking

[heady holly]

from my calculation we get 38 free pass tier from challenges alone

so best bet is to NOT do any quests until reaching pass lvl 30 i assume ??

[finite bay]

that's nothing💀

[heady holly]

then instant 38 lvl

[finite bay]

yes complete challenges

[pliant kelp]

You need weekly completion

[obsidian tide]

Or do the most tedious ones first.

[harsh shuttle]

well so im on 22 with week 1 challenges if i do all weeks challenges and some light grind im good

[heady holly]

i thought we could do all of them last week??

[finite bay]

im almost 20

[harsh shuttle]

got stone of my heart

[harsh shuttle]

nah u need weekly play

[finite bay]

so it will be faster later??

[obsidian tide]

Probably not.

[pliant kelp]

Not the last one that expires and it unlocks by completing challenges

[marble bluff]

That'd be too much work for just one week

[heady holly]

yeah forget the last one, the rest we can all do them at the end right ???

[pliant kelp]

You can try to save some after you unlock the weekly

[obsidian tide]

The bonus tier mission will expire at end of week, but others do not.

[finite bay]

with all the games I've played already to get to level 20 I would have completed them all already

[obsidian tide]

Yeah, but there would be too much time pressure.

[finite bay]

not joking

[heady holly]

ok so BIS plan, get to lvl 30 pass WITHOUT DOING ANY CHALLENGE. then do all challenge = INSTANT LVL 60 ez

[pliant kelp]

Yea I regret instantly doing all challenges

[obsidian tide]

My plan is just to progress all Challenges for this week, then no-life to Level 40 within the week.

[finite bay]

it's impossible hitting level 30 without challenges

you need to play like a madman

[obsidian tide]

Support EMP Grenade build be like.

[finite bay]

in terms of hours too

[marble bluff]

What's the best mode for quicker progression? Conquest or something else?

[harsh shuttle]

yeah i needed all and bonus from week 1 and got now lvl22

[finite bay]

im playing breakthrough

[pliant kelp]

I like breakthrough

[finite bay]

same and im at 20

[pliant kelp]

But playing what you like is best I think bc is too long to grind

[heady holly]

ill just grind till 30 then were good ez

[finite bay]

and played a lot of games after completing the challenges as well

[harsh shuttle]

so we are almost good, do lvl 30 and then only weekly challenges and done

if im right

[finite bay]

i hope so

[harsh shuttle]

something around lvl 30 and we good

[finite bay]

this is painful ngl

[harsh shuttle]

it is for good thing guys remember its for BF6 !! xD

god i hope they dont fck it up

[marble bluff]

Are there any unlocks you need for the challenges? Or is everything available if you're just starting out?

[obsidian tide]

Incendiary Grenade. Level 42, or shortcut kit payment.

[harsh shuttle]

its alreadx available just play and look on challenges week 1

[marble bluff]

Oof, damn it

[finite bay]

well im going back to my grind, good luck soldiers

😭

[harsh shuttle]

im doing again helicopter xp grind and just not piloting just make sure im not afk no more than 5 minutes

i piloted like 5 hours in a row and all peps were just passengers, now my turn xD

so its almost good AFk grind

[marble bluff]

But getting to 42 doesn't take long right? These challenges will be available later on anyway except for the weekly one so I think that's fine

And for the weekly one you need 5 normal completed challenges, right?

[harsh shuttle]

well im not sure now, when week 2 gets unlocked the week 1 missions get blocked with the bonus or no?

[marble bluff]

From what I remember only the weekly one becomes unavailable, the others can still be done

[wicked basalt]

Anyone else on PS5 ,playing weekly challenges getting errors every game? For every game that I complete, 3 error out

[marble bluff]

So I'll just do 5 other ones and the weekly first and do the incendiary one later if I don't get to 42 in the process

[worn jungle]

This is painful. Cant wait til I finish the pass

[deep hamlet]

Hello there is a new issue with the game and is that it crashes in the loading screen without error message, does EA know about this issue? I cant even enter the game and forums give no answer pls help

[harsh shuttle]

Try to do incendiary in BOT lobby

[deep hamlet]

Everything verified, updated and nothing worked. So is 100% game's issue

[marble bluff]

Can you select bot lobbies only in the browser or how does it work? Is it difficult to complete normally?

[worn jungle]

Did your internet get disconnected at any point? My kid unplugged my WiFi and then the game wouldn’t let me on for 30 minutes after being reconnected

[harsh shuttle]

just go to battlefield labs or do your own game but idk what works and what no u got to try

[deep hamlet]

Nope. I just enter the game and on the loading screen that spinning icon freezes before even getting into the lobby and then game closes

[marble bluff]

Maybe check your Windows event viewer and see what caused the game to crash

[harsh shuttle]

if you go to server browse there is much server u can choose

[vocal birch]

Anyone willing to help seed a BF2042 Portal server?

[deep hamlet]

How?

[marble bluff]

https://www.howtogeek.com/123646/htg-explains-what-the-windows-event-viewer-is-and-how-you-can-use-it/

Sometimes it contains some pretty useful info like if your video driver crashed or some other system instability

If nothing else helps, try to uninstall and reinstall the game. Sometimes it works wonders

[deep hamlet]

Perfect i will check later and tell you, because in ea formun anyone replies and EA support since idk when, they dont give supoort through mail. Obviously reinstalling didnt work

Its says on the verification that there were 3 files that could not be validated and will ve installed again

On steam file verification

[fading jay]

How long would it take to unlock every wep attatchment available at lvll 20?

[marble bluff]

Don't rely on EA support, they won't help you as much as people from the community will

[deep hamlet]

Btw beta bf6 runs horrible on my pc but when i play final version i can make the game run perfect. But betas run horrible for me idk why

[fading jay]

Ea support is so bad, I got falsely banned on steam and now for every EA game I need to buy it on an alt to play online

Tried to get customer support for the issue for over a year

[marble bluff]

Maybe also check your SSDs for errors

[deep hamlet]

I allways got support via mail but idk why they dont give it anymore

[deep hamlet]

With COD it happened the same, open beta on MW3 was like 40 fps but final version with all the graphic options available i could make it run 100 fps

[fading jay]

If anyone wants to play let me know, im jus going to make a custom TDM server to grind attatchment unlocks

[marble bluff]

From my experience, official support channels can only assist you with issues regarding your account or similar. Their technical support is usually not reliable

[vocal birch]

care to join mine?

depening on how bad the ping is

[fading jay]

Where are you located?

[fading jay]

Sounds good if Ur not too far

[marble bluff]

Also, it's kinda hard to troubleshoot someone else's issues without knowing their hardware specs, driver versions etc.

[fading jay]

I see Ur also a T90 enjoyer

[vocal birch]

cant add images here thats awkward

[vocal birch]

indeed

[fading jay]

Im in Australia so its probs bad ping regardless, I'll join

[vocal birch]

im one of those LELs

oh ye ok its gon be real bad, but youre welcome to try ig

[fading jay]

Ill come see, what's ur name

Ea profile name

[vocal birch]

(ZA) Classic BF TDM. 24V24 (Full XP)

thats the server name, player name is 1PR3DAT0R

[deep hamlet]

On forum i could only find 2 possible solutions:

1- "Hey everyone I think I found a solution. At least it works for me. Install your graphics driver version 577.00."

2- Okay so i just repaired the game and deleted the "settings" folder inside of "C: \Users[YOUR USERNAME]\Documents\Battlefield 2042" and its working again

I have no idea if this 2 things could work

[fading jay]

Oh mate 420 ping no way in hell lmao

[vocal birch]

understandable

[marble bluff]

I mean, worth try. Sometimes deleting config files helps in such cases, too

[deep hamlet]

I literally opened the game file and deleted everything, then reinstalled some days ago xdd

[fading jay]

What's everyone fav loadouts?

I love medic

[marble bluff]

Troubleshooting takes time though. What game file? The config file? You can just delete it completely, the game will create a new one anyway

[thorny wave]

Medic > Support > Engineer > Recon

[fading jay]

Why is it so hard to host a server

Global game quota exceeded, they should separate it by regions bc only 8 oceanic servers on rb

Rn

[ocean parrot]

Because several thousand people who genuinely hate this game are playing on their own private lobbies so they don't gotta interact with the community

[fading jay]

Im only doing a private one bc no team deaths are active, and im half watching TV and dont want to be a shit team mate haha

[boreal trout]

whats the quickest way to get the free pass done so i dont need to play anymore

[fading jay]

Portal xp lobbies til cap and do missions

[boreal trout]

whats generally the cap?

[fading jay]

I think its 1.5mil?

Could be 150k i briefly saw an article

Forgot how many 0s

[limpid edge]

challenges can be done in mostly bot lobbies/portal

for xp just normal matches cos bots have an xp cap

[fading jay]

Hope someone deletes their server so I can open mine

[harsh shuttle]

use portal and XP farm servers the ammo box drop or heli cap its the best on XP but hard at same time 😄

[fading jay]

How do u do that anyway

[harsh shuttle]

Idk i found it on server browser and im happy

[boreal trout]

do you just repeatedly throw ammo box down

[harsh shuttle]

for 90 minutes straight

helis are btter for me now

[fading jay]

Ocne Ur capped u cant do them righth

Bc that sounds great I got nothing else to do and could do that forv90

[harsh shuttle]

u can try it and make your idea, it helped me for the BP start godly

[fading jay]

Ah i think ibwouldnt gain x0

Would not gain xp*

[hexed granite]

can i also go afk with Lynx and it maybe becomes a OKAY sniper at some point?

[fading jay]

I like the lynx

[kind hinge]

does anybody have server issues with bf new gamemode?

on the Iwo Jima

[fading jay]

Nah I've been fine on that
