battlefield-2042

[white mist]

BF3 was precise controls, BF2042 feels like you are fighting a drunk aircraft regardless of settings fine tuning

But I kinda think it was intentional

For balancing

[covert shell]

yea ive actually never seen someone top scoreboards with vehicles here like in bf4

or even if they do, its like a few dozen kills and not 150 or 200 lmfao

[white mist]

Also 3 and 4 armor had way bigger splash zones

[covert shell]

i've never rly had a chance to fly in the other games since ppl kept insta taking vehicles, so 2042 bot matches let me practice a lot and i can have kinda long lifes on most vehicles in pvp

[white mist]

Gone are the days of a heli pilot / gunner duo being top scorer with 100-200 kills lol

[surreal turtle]

Can I still play BF6 since I signed before the 30 jul

[surreal turtle]

I understand that thing some people are good with them and they just live of flying but it's so outrageous I gotta be staying waiting for the vehicle to reappear and fight the chance they might just click faster than me

[quick kraken]

tanks and stuff wont because of how obj are weighted, but a CAV/MAV/etc can easily top

[surreal turtle]

So I believe that maybe putting points to spend them on spawning vehicles would be a good idea

[white mist]

Yea a skilled cav/mav is pretty good

[surreal turtle]

To force the player to just spawn and provide some support as an infantry and with the more points they get the can spawn a vehicle

[covert shell]

oh yeah i mean, topping happens, but its not bc they've killed everyone in the lobby 20 times each

[carmine lion]

“Now is the time!”

[covert shell]

which was the case in bf4 with any vehicle you could jsut farm people and there was very little individual counterplay or zoning. had to be a team effort and even then all you're accomplishing is reducing their kpm and not actually downing them lmfao

atleast this far into the games lifecycle

[quick kraken]

crewed vehicles in this game are still way more oppressive than BF4 etc vehicles

4 seats with god tier weapons

most 'high skill' tank players in bf4 etc didnt rlly need multiple players, here they do

[white mist]

Bigger group play and helps push objectives

[covert shell]

i just rly disagree like. the second any vehicle is causing trouble, 16 lises or 5 rocket crawfords materialize and instakill it

[quick kraken]

mfw silk road staff shell

[serene kestrel]

finally, its over, all challenges this week are done

[white mist]

Instead of troll hit and run farming

[covert shell]

the only thing ive seen linger is stealth helis at map ceiling

[white mist]

Heh yea saw some do that

[quick kraken]

I think the best vehicle in the game is CAV still

Can fight other vehicles with 25mm, god tier anti inf with incendiary GL, can have 2 pocket repairers in the vehicle, CDS can clear entire points, and gets APS

[covert shell]

i use cav a lot since ppl tend to not take them

[white mist]

Cav with CDS is basically today's C4'd jeeps

Hop in and bum rush a site and trigger the cds

(crappy gameplay but hey it works)

[quick kraken]

thats fair tbh, i think 2042 has a much higher skill ceiling and lower skill floor

[covert shell]

i only get to do that a couple times in my lobby before the lis army gets mad and places like 20 at mines all over the point

[quick kraken]

youre basically required to grind unlocks vs bots to play vehicles, but high tier vehicle play is completely insane

[white mist]

Yep, when I first started, noobie me in cav did jack all

[cloud token]

they need to fix the weapons in this rush of ages mode, the guns, after a while, when you shoot, they fly literally 90 degrees to the side, was using the LMG and all the shots were flying straight and just took damage, recovered and now my shots are flying outside of the crosshairs and even when scoped they fly out to the side, and it stays like that for the entire match, like how is this possible

[quick kraken]

yeah with no APS or thermal smoke youre just cooked

jav 3 shots every vehicle with infinite range so you need one of those to counter it

the main reason for engineer spam in this game i think is theres no real reason to run other classes

so you may as well take an rpg

[covert shell]

i type smth but u cant say swear words in this sv so idk

but overall its like, 42 vic game is someone holding points w a crew. 4 vic game is some D BAG with 999 kills instagibbing you and zipping away. i think it feels better in 42 but idk

[quick kraken]

the only bad vehicle in this game is bolte and thats because it has bad anti inf tools and it dies in 2 missile/rpg hits

[covert shell]

lmfao yeh when i see someone waste my teams vehicle slots on bolte i know im playing w noobs

[quick kraken]

like yeah you can do mine cheese but you can also just pick a normal vehicle and kill vehicles that way

[sturdy forge]

every vtol driver basically

none of them know how to make it move

[covert shell]

i actually had a game with a vtol driver topping score somehow but idk what he was doing

he just hovered on points and his gunner shot ppl

they were like top 10

[quick kraken]

vtol is hard because its super fat and you cant really run away efficiently

its a lot easier to break los in hokum/blackhawk

[covert shell]

it was the bf3 map so he was like kinda hiding behind shit and sniping ppl somehow

[sturdy forge]

what are the objective airdrops for the weekly

tablet didn’t count

[tiny terrace]

when people jump out from your air vehicle and land on an objective.

[livid latch]

can do it with land vehicles too

[covert shell]

objective landdrop?

[livid latch]

yeah i done it with regular land vehicles

[uneven acorn]

So once this battle pass is complete the BF6 rewards are guaranteed right? Because I'm gonna be pissed if it turns out I wasted so many hours for nothing.

[raw ice]

no, if you unlock the rewards, it's 50/50 whether you get them in BF6

[trim lake]

[sleek gulch]

This dude rage hacking in this game, 134-4 atm with a pp29. Ggs 😂

[raw ice]

thats not that unbelievable

[sleek gulch]

Nah whole lobby just reported him. Insta killing 10 at a time basically

[raw ice]

ahh

whats the IGN? so I can avoid

[sleek gulch]

Doubt I can name and shame here

[raw ice]

oh yeah fair

[sleek gulch]

New game just started and he had 13 kills before we reached the first flag on Redacted 😂

[sturdy forge]

45 of my teammates are engineers 😭

[mental flame]

what the easiest way to get the challenges done with out iwo jima

[ionic geyser]

Anyone getting an error when trying to launch bf 2042 on PC? In the EA app its saying "An error on our end caused the launch to fail. Try again a little later". Is there some maintenance going on?

Edit: It just started to happen recently. Ive tried uninstalling and re-installing the game just in case

[sleek gulch]

I had something like that after a crash to desktop. Validated files via steam, 2 were bad and still didnt fix. PC reboot did though

[placid wharf]

Oh my god iwo jima breakthrough is back

[orchid tusk]

Persistence error is quite resilient.

[mental flame]

i had a problem about my game crashing about a directx error i fixed that problem now my game will just lag really bad or not even join a match

on my pc

[sturdy forge]

my teams are always majority engineers but they still don’t shoot or repair vehicles

[mental flame]

i still need help with the helicopter challenge

[twin sun]

Who tf made this objective airdrop challenge, sincerely go die

I hate challenges that rely on other players man

[quick kraken]

Play iwo jima breakthrough

[arctic grove]

Managed to actually get the 100+m challenge. I am pretty decent at aiming the recoiless, just did longshots that way. Almost to that 2000 vehicle damage for the bonus.

[twin sun]

Tried that, I’m getting screwed over

Nobody spawns on me

[wary mason]

eu 24/7 iwo jima https://ptb.discord.com/channels/140933721929940992/909508288197038180

[mental flame]

what does it mean by 0/2 multi kill with explosives

[arctic grove]

You have to get 2 multikills using explosives.

[bold sigil]

Kill three or more people with explosives (C5, launchers, basically anything that goes boom) two times. Best way is to target transport vehicles as an engineer.

[neat dragon]

Bro i hate these challenges im gonna be so glad when im done with em

[radiant creek]

Can anyone gift me a game on Steam?

[placid ravine]

This weeks challenges were a cake walk if you main engineer lol

[arctic grove]

If you main specifically anti-vehicle engineer instead of defensive repairer.

[stray tapir]

iowa jima more enjoyable this week with everyone on engineer

[arctic grove]

Almost T49.

[placid ravine]

I think you're safe to take a break lol

[cloud leaf]

Cracked a 63 year old pack-a-day cougar call my shit lord of cinder the way I was pounding that ash.

[arctic grove]

Oh 100%, I am playing because I want to. I got into the grindset on those challenges though, haha.

Now I can return to my usual fun playstyle instead of lazer-focusing on anti-vehicle.

[wary mason]

eu 24/7 iwo jima https://ptb.discord.com/channels/140933721929940992/909508288197038180

[mental flame]

i try to but nobody ever heal me then tanks and so on get a way

[placid ravine]

The objective airdrop challenge, is it ME jumping out and parachuting onto the obj or do i need to be flying and get others to jump out?

[mental flame]

same question i've been just jumping out for objective but it never counts for me

or do you have to claim it for it to work

[placid ravine]

Just jumped on two and capped 1 and got nothing. I suck at flying tho so was hoping i didn't have to fly lol

[paper hearth]

Is the keycard for the prototype permanent?

The one you get from botb

Or do I have to go and get it again everytime I unlock the door.

[mental flame]

same with me

i did it like 8 time and it never counted for me at all

[neat dragon]

I wish it was 1.5k damage to vehicles instead of 2 because man this is taking forever to get done unless you're like cracked with rockets and vehicles

[placid ravine]

play with the guy that get extra rocket ammo and be sure to be behind them

[mental flame]

i suck at flying in general

[neat dragon]

I'm meh with AA and tanks but horrible at air combat its just so odd flying on controller

[neat dragon]

Yeah I know engine shots do more damage and it's Crawford right?

[arctic grove]

@mental flame

To answer both of you, you have to drop off people onto the objective, either by flying or using(in our testing) a MAV.

[neat dragon]

Only a 1 time unlock its permanent access

[sturdy olive]

hello legends <3

[mental flame]

ok i did it by accident and it completed it

[quick kraken]

Its permanent

Only have to go down once for everything though (as far as we know)

[mental flame]

does the cram to vechile count?

[young panther]

someone should make a portal server that is just normal 128 but no bots so its full xp as normal 128 mode is dead

[neat dragon]

Im gonna stop grinding whenever i reach the bf4 outfit for bf6

[young panther]

its the only mode i play unless forced to play 64

[arctic grove]

128 is the best way but that is only on Conquest. Breakthrough 64 is not bad though.

[full remnant]

Dude how is the Draugr glitch still a thing???

[wary mason]

eu, lf engineers 24/7 iwo jima, dm

[mental flame]

what you working on

[clever fiber]

packet loss broooo

[mental flame]

i tried to heal a mav and the dude just keep moving and wouldnt let me heal him

[clever fiber]

slow motion start, but everything else is normal. Is there any way to fix this?

[wary mason]

eu, lf engineers for breakthrough iwo jima, dm

[lusty sigil]

Hi guys

[mental flame]

i was at 20 vehicle damage then did cram on a tank and ended up at 129 damage

[languid relic]

did they nerf portal xp ?

[arctic grove]

From what I have been seeing, it appears so. It was always rate capped though.

[slender bone]

hackers they are facing other way as soon as you come out cover they turn around super fast and one hit kill you

[arctic grove]

34.5k XP per point now, sitting at T49.

[real jasper]

Xm25 the goat

Wish it had custom ammo types

[smoky coral]

oof not a lot of fun

i cant wait to be done with this bp and be able to uninstall this trash game like its gotten better since launch but still horrible to play

[orchid tusk]

i hear you. now i get an infinite level loading screen. no freeze up. just have to alt f4. 🤦

[wary mason]

iwo jima breakthrough dm

[slender bone]

3 dots into 51

[orchid tusk]

idk i was thinking of going to other games channel and punching the snot out of some nacho cheese

[split pike]

Is there any accurate player count across all platforms?

[plucky vessel]

at this point, is it possible to just do that portal grind?

im only receiving 5k to 8k xp per game

and im already at tier 48

[arctic grove]

Eh. I enjoy the game, so it is what it is. Certainly slow though. Should reach T50 if not tonight than by tomorrow night.

Planning to be done with it all by the end of the coming week, ideally. I will be missing the 2XP due to work this weekend though.

[smoky coral]

the problem is i would have enjoyed the game more had i not drop close to 40hrs on bf6 beta and enjoyed it much more than i have playing 2042 recently

the lack of destruction is so bad, also playing this game has made me hate the open weapon system more than the beta ever did

worst part is Im only at tier 34 so i got a minute before im done with this game

[slender bone]

destruction really

[slate valve]

Is there more cool Easter eggs like the phantom one in 2042?

[cedar kindle]

ok so I found a improved way of not dying for the AFK exp farm

mehhhh

[uncut talon]

bonjour hier je n ai pas aimé la map ni l etat d esprit des joueurs

[orchid tusk]

didnt have to. just went down the list til something loaded. braindead game.

[arctic grove]

Gotcha. Yeah, much as I love 2042, it will absolutely be a fond memory and not a "to go back to," once BF6 drops. BF6 is simply better.

I will wear that T60 skin though in remembrance.

[agile rose]

Hi everyone
If someone can help me to get the phantom skin on assault
Pls DM me

[vast beacon]

Yeah if I had not played bf6 beta I would have enjoyed bf2042 alot more lol considering the only fps i played before was delta force, which I haven't even touched since I bought 2042

[smoky coral]

2042 just doesnt feel like a battlefield game thats its main problem

[quasi wagon]

Same here, I had tons of fun in BF2042 but doesn't feels any good now

[smoky coral]

the ttk sometime is stupid fast, tanks are stupid fast, movement feels like it wants to be cod and the lack of destruction is just such a huge killer

like the amount of times i wanted to level a building but couldnt is stupid

[vast beacon]

The biggest issue I have is the maps

[smoky coral]

those are pretty bad also

[slender bone]

have you seen modern tanks they are fast

[trail helm]

Am with you on this. So many flat maps with zero topography or one insanely overpowered elevated spot.

[vast beacon]

Chat does the rush of ages game mode let you complete weeklies?

[serene cloak]

I want to wish every Nightbird pilot a very unpleasant existence.

[vast beacon]

They are so agile. Can't even hit a rocket at them

[trail helm]

You can however shoot the pilot out of his seat.

[serene cloak]

They keep making the same mistakes and rarely carry over the good things they add.

[serene cloak]

Yeah sure, that's something you can do reliab....oh I'm dead.

[vast beacon]

Anyone know this

[arctic grove]

Far as I am aware it counts as a normal playlist and should function for them.

If you mean the squid thing.

[trail helm]

Not saying it's reliable. I am saying it's an option.

[vast beacon]

No, the one in the portal menu

[fast thunder]

What does that mean

[sturdy olive]

idk gng 🥀

[granite cradle]

Anyone else keep disconnecting every game?

[wheat helm]

Yeah, you shouldn't do that unc!

[granite cradle]

It said 'game ended, all players disconnected'

[slender bone]

server crash

[granite cradle]

Damn got that 3 games in a row

[slender bone]

or someone is ddos them

[serene cloak]

I wish I could get teams that knew how to do literally anything correctly.

[slender bone]

i know that pain

[limber kayak]

So why did they nerf A-10 and Frogfoot

[viscid epoch]

Whats the best way to grind the free pass?

[wheat shadow]

Because they were too strong against vehicles, probably

[wheat shadow]

Weekly missions, play a game or two as many days as you can to get the daily free 10k xp and general xp, lean into double/triple xp at the weekends if you can.

[waxen dew]

That’s why they exists tho, they are vehicles killers, not infantry

Fucking DICE

[wheat shadow]

too strong

[knotty mountain]

Are portal servers disabled? I can't seem to join or create any servers on portal

[waxen dew]

You just gotta spam them

[waxen dew]

I felt they were perfect

Now they give them the usual treatment of any vehicle, burn them to the ground

Makes me wanna go back to BFV

[wheat shadow]

They were able to single-strafe-run pretty much any vehicle. Dice said in the nerf announcement that they want slightly longer engagements than that.

[waxen dew]

Boring, makes the target run into cover and full repair = useless again

Like hydra rockets for normal jets

[wheat shadow]

Flying in a straight line holding one button and reliably popping a vehicle is hardly high skill gameplay.

[waxen dew]

Me when I realize that is the purpose of the vehicle.

Hence why it trades off any other ability, such as dog fights afterburner

Then you simply give it no purpose

Clever dice logic

[wheat shadow]

No, it means you now have to mix in positioning, timing and opportunity to make a second run on the vehicle, which is actual skilled gameplay.

[waxen dew]

lol, skilled gameplay

Might be the first vehicle to implement that then

[wheat shadow]

That’s how the existing jets and attack choppers work. You almost always need two runs on a full health armoured vehicle.

[waxen dew]

They don’t really have a use on armoured vehicles anyways

And a single run on a vehicle is easily done solo with an attack chopper

TOW and Anti Armor missiles, then hop into gunner

[wheat shadow]

Seat swapping isn’t really solo…

[waxen dew]

That is solo yes

[serene cloak]

Wtf do i have to do to get on the side that isn't just throwing all their vehicles into the dumpster!?

[waxen dew]

Complain in the game chat

[jovial saffron]

Dice are on the ball! Jima back 24/7 !

[wheat shadow]

It’s not really though, you’re doing the work of two people by trading between cooldowns.
Actual skilled players in aircraft vs skilled players in ground vehicles typically involve two passes, with nobody just able to dumb fire a straight strafe and nuke the other.

I’m sorry if you don’t like that, but it’s true.

[waxen dew]

I’m sorry if you don’t understand. But when you close quarters engage an AA you chose to give up one mechanic for the other mechanic, such as not being able to engage in flares or moving the heli making you an easy target. What part of that is not solo, you tell me

[vast beacon]

I can't even find games. everyone's sleeping here ig

[wheat shadow]

If you close quarters engage a skilled wildcat while seat-swapping you are dead, so I’m not really sure what you’re pushing that for.

[waxen dew]

No you’re not? Lol do you even play 2042

I always solo fly the 64 or 520 because it’s so easy to solo

[wheat shadow]

I play a lot of wildcat 🙂

[waxen dew]

Wildcats are absolutely the easiest target on the battlefield

As they are mostly stationary away from infantry engineers

[wheat shadow]

Seat swappers are easily dealt with. every time I see your rotors slow I’m pushing a missile at you to force you to swap back, and the rest of the time I’m shooting you with guns and protecting myself from all of your weapons with APS. you will be retreating quickly after your first attempt, and forced to pick your re-challenge.

Smart players re-chall quickly, most don’t because they’re scared.

[waxen dew]

APS is the only thing that remotely poses a challenge

As it’s arguably a no skill feature too

So in your logic it would need to be nerfed too

[wheat shadow]

Unsurprisingly, a lot of wildcat players are bad. Just like the majority of my wildcat kills are bad pilots who fly in a straight line as I melt them with guns. I’m talking about skilled gameplay here.

APS is about timing. I know that I’m vulnerable after I use it, so I’m thinking about positioning, watching you like a hawk, and planning for the possibly quick re-chall.

Good pilots intentionally make me burn my APS and then come at me blazing, and they are much harder to deal with, but fairly rare IME.

Just as your flares being burned makes you vulnerable and forces you to think about positioning, distance, etc.

[waxen dew]

Where they gave the A10 somewhat two flares

The flares and the spoofer

As they understand it’s lack of speeds is a great flaw

[wheat shadow]

Pre-nerf, a good A10 pilot was essentially impossible to force into a re-chall.

[waxen dew]

True, only a dog fight would end the spree

Which I did experience a lot, would actively get targeted by jets

[stray stump]

Did they removed Russian team in coop / solo?
why does everymap starts with US?
even orbital now starts with US wtf?

[waxen dew]

Yes. US only

[cloud token]

whats with the spawning in breakthrough, what is the point that i will spawn on B2 and it pushed me 40m away from the main base spawn, like what is the point of obj spawns if i aint spawning on obj

[stray stump]

wtf? Why?

[waxen dew]

Prevent solo grind

You have to actually play online now

[stray stump]

tf u mean prevent that? how bout solo grinding the us?

[waxen dew]

I am pretty sure RU vehicles takes less kills than US

[stray stump]

Frogfoot literally needs the same as a10

[waxen dew]

Ah, well then weird

Play it in portal then lol

With everything unlocked

[stray stump]

u cant unlock attachments in portal

[waxen dew]

Really?

[stray stump]

the mastery system doent work

[waxen dew]

Odd

[stray stump]

so now i have to pray i get into russian team,pray theres no sweaty stealth jets on the us

good lord

[waxen dew]

Just play 64

Usually less sweats than 128

Was my tactic

[stray stump]

takes ages to get start with russia and get a jet

literaly dozen of ppl fighting with u for it

[waxen dew]

Simply spam the pick button

I destroyed a controller simply spamming X

[jagged epoch]

is there a way to set the jet's flight to inverted but not the helicopter? the manual settings dont seem to allow me to just reverse the mouse direction :/

[stray stump]

fck this man.not gonna even try it anymore since they nerfed it too

[waxen dew]

Why would you not play heli inverted?

[waxen dew]

Yeah they suck ass now. No need to play them

[stray stump]

Great they just send me into another losing team redicated boring ass map

[waxen dew]

Literally just play normal jets or draugr at this point, as they legit have better Air to Ground capability

[jagged epoch]

well idk which is inverted and which is not, but i want both "nose ups" to be "mouse forward" but for some reason i can't get it. not to mention i can't get enough time to actually mess with my settings before im out of combat zone/crash

[waxen dew]

Have you heard of solo?

[polar parrot]

playing this game is giving me so much of a headache I'm just contemplating whether I should drop this for silksong or not

I hope next week's challenges are bearable

(and aren't bugged)

[stray stump]

air to ground vehicle atk jets is still superior than using missles,its the farming infantry thing thats makes me mad,nerfing the fire bomb on bomber and explosive 30 mm on a10

lame af,one way to piss off more players since the games is gonna die in a month

and conquest hourglass 64 players doesnt even have su25 as an option

nice job dice

[jagged epoch]

like conquest solo/coop? yeah thats pretty much all i play, but navigating six menus and having to renavigate the menus every time i open them is frustrating, especially since i can't seem to host my own portal with no cooldown air vehicles so every time i leave combat/crash while practicing/messing with settings i have to wait 2 minutes for the respawn :/

[arctic grove]

I have not encountered any bugs with this week's missions, what is bugging for you?

[polar parrot]

no I was referring to when the pips for this week were less than last week's (46 from the usual 55)

I know it's been fixed now but I'm still pissed off that I wasn't compensated for the lost points

[arctic grove]

Gotcha. Yeah, given the past I am not surprised. Next week will have +1 to each point value though per mission.

[stuck jolt]

I was given all 9 back after I logged back in

[polar parrot]

oh really?

I didn't notice that

[stuck jolt]

Only reason i noticed was since i was 59 before i logged out and after i was level 60

[gilded hearth]

Some old school shit right there ,bring back some good memories

[arctic grove]

49.4, good stopping point for the morning. About to be sleep time.

[stuck jolt]

Scammer

[forest idol]

At 45 right now me

[wary mason]

looking for lis engineers to play on the side of my heli and just shoot rockets at tanks and repair, dm

[forest idol]

Need 5 more longshots of 100 meter. And then 3 more challenges and week 3 challenges are done

[wild wraith]

Bruh I’m at 35. I gotta lock in during the weekends

[stuck jolt]

Im already level 60 but i can help in around 10 min

[wary mason]

yeah text me

[wild wraith]

You done any afk stuff or just playing the game?

[forest idol]

I will reach 60 with only the weekly missions

[wary mason]

afk servers op

[desert lynx]

multi kill is killing me lmao

[wild wraith]

Breakthrough Iwo Jima bruh. Your bound to get it

[stuck jolt]

Use c4 on a mrav

[arctic grove]

Anti tank mine was my beloved for that.

[wary mason]

lis...

[desert lynx]

i have been trying this

[blazing spoke]

Damn I wasn’t

[desert lynx]

i managed to do it once lmao

other times it was just 2 people inside

[blazing spoke]

Play Iwo Jima breakthrough and just place land mines on roads that aren’t really being used to begin with

Cause usually you’ll get a team in a mav and try be sneaky and rush the objective from a different side

[stuck jolt]

Another VERY easy way is just to use the bomber plan and 1 shot 8 people inside of a zone

[blazing spoke]

Then bang land mines
Got my multi kills quick as

[desert lynx]

ima try this

[stuck jolt]

I got both multi kills in 1 run via this

[desert lynx]

i suck at flying tho sadly

and i dont think i unlocked that planeyet

[blazing spoke]

Yeah I got mine in one game but really depends on the enemy team

Just try be smart with the placement
Putting them anywhere it’s gonna be active combat will most likely get them blown up by grenades which is why I like to have them on a side road somewhere

[stuck jolt]

Ah, that sucks what about quad cop ? If you have someone else fly it then have c4 while your on the back you can EASILY kill tanks

@wary masonyo im back

[blazing spoke]

Vehicles like the quad copter are just a drop in the bucket of reasons why I need bf6 to come out already 😭

[stuck jolt]

What do you mean ?

[forest idol]

Redacted portal c4 did this done for me

[blazing spoke]

So ridiculous seeing those things fly around
I get it’s a futuristic game but they just look so dumb 💀

[stuck jolt]

They are the most fun thing to fly in the game

[blazing spoke]

Oh I’m definitely not disagreeing

[arctic grove]

Whaaaaat? This is battlefield not cod veichles are part of the game and id never play without them

[blazing spoke]

But I really don’t want to play a game with a quad copter contraption I’d rather just have my game ruined by an attack chopper and fighter jet

[blazing spoke]

Nah man I love vehicles I been around since 1942

[stuck jolt]

I mean to be fair quad copters exist irl aswell

[blazing spoke]

Just quad copters are ridiculous

Their equivalent of a flying quad bike essentially

[wary mason]

DM

[blazing spoke]

I can’t imagine trying to field those things in an actual war

[chilly jacinth]

You couldn't imagine fielding electric scooters either

but here we are

[arctic grove]

I had a quad decide to bulldoze my Vulcan once, it was pretty funny to have happen, did not expect it to fold like a house of cards.

[serene cloak]

They don't need to be so strong, though.

It's moronic that like 5 people get to farm the other 123.

[cloud token]

what is this obj airdrop stuff, i only have 1/3 and i have no idea what i even did for it

[wooden flicker]

Can they get rid of helicopters

[warm lake]

pick up a stinger

brokey

[stuck jolt]

They arent that strong most vehicles can be destroyed in like 3 rockets lmao ...

[wooden flicker]

I do but they survive

[warm lake]

pick up another stinger then

[raw ice]

Airdropping teammates from a helicopter to an obj

[arctic grove]

Or from a MAV.

[wooden flicker]

They just keep takimg rockets

[cloud token]

bruh

i dont even fly helis

[stuck jolt]

They can repair, you have to do it one after another

[wooden flicker]

I think flare timer is to short

[warm lake]

so keep sending more rockets

[waxen dew]

Use a RPG or Lis

[wooden flicker]

They keep flaring like 10 second after one

[raw ice]

Apparently you can do it yourself, spawn in a team heli and jump to obj

[waxen dew]

So easy

[stuck jolt]

Timer is like 30 sec long lol

[cloud token]

i gotta land right on the obj right?

[stuck jolt]

You have to shooot the rocket one after another

[raw ice]

Yes

[wooden flicker]

Bruh if it was so easy it wouldnt be flying around whole match

[waxen dew]

Skill issue

[cloud token]

lock onto them, wait for the flares then have it relock and shoot

[raw ice]

Which heli

[warm lake]

dis is ragbait..... yuou are rargbaitig.

[cloud token]

i always sike them out with the false firing

[stuck jolt]

They can respawn the heli ..

[wooden flicker]

Isnt flare last for 15 seconds

[waxen dew]

Only trash pilots fall for that

[stuck jolt]

No lol

[warm lake]

so 99.9% of pilots

[waxen dew]

Who flares at “lock on” lol

[wooden flicker]

It does flare then flares after for next 10 sec

[waxen dew]

I like to see the missile fire first then flare so I can see who to kill

[warm lake]

i actually just shoot them with an rpg because im not ass at the videogame

[stuck jolt]

Your doing it wrong there is a cooldown lol just keep our aim locked on and you can hit them 2 times before the cooldown is over

[wooden flicker]

Both bad agaist them

[waxen dew]

No

[raw ice]

What heli were you up against

[cloud token]

thats everyone then 😭

[wooden flicker]

The ones in iwo jima breakthrough

[stuck jolt]

Just new players

[raw ice]

Which ones tho 😭

[wooden flicker]

One has like stealth permanetly

[cloud token]

the worst is the stealth chopper, gotta damage it or someone use the hacking to shut off the stealth before you can lock on

[waxen dew]

Night birds? The small ones?

[cloud token]

yeah that small one is annoying,

[waxen dew]

Ah, the Hannibal

YG and YF

[raw ice]

Okay so stealth, are you talking about fighting them in stealth or in regular mode?

[wooden flicker]

The lis rocket isnt work

They can dodge to easy

[waxen dew]

They are talking about them bombing in stealth

[warm lake]

stop boosting lol

[wooden flicker]

Plus they survive it anyway

[raw ice]

That’s what I was figuring

[cloud token]

think he means having the stealth mode always on, like you cant lock on, until you damage it or disable the stealth on it

[warm lake]

no helicopter survives it except gunships

[raw ice]

This, @wooden flicker you can get heli’s out of stealth with the right ammo

[warm lake]

just a skill issue rly

[wooden flicker]

Ive hit helis with lis rocket and they survive

[waxen dew]

Hey, the start is, use the C RAM, once they get damaged they lose stealth and become a lock on target, many don’t have flares yet. So run out of the C RAM and lock on

Or use lis or RPG

And get good

[raw ice]

^

[wooden flicker]

Whats Cram

[raw ice]

The AA turrets on the map

[warm lake]

the thing that rams

[wooden flicker]

The AA kind of useless

[waxen dew]

Stationary explosive AA minigun

[raw ice]

It shreds them

You can also use Crawford Vulcan against dumb pilots who fly hella low

It shreds em

[waxen dew]

It’s really good against the stealth helicopters as they can’t directly attack you

Unless they come into kill range

[raw ice]

^

Knock it out of stealth and it’s way easier to kill

[wooden flicker]

Idk everytime I shoot them they flare

And never die

[waxen dew]

However, some good atealth heli pilot will fly as high as possible and just for a mili second bomb your once possible

A bit harder to pull off

[wooden flicker]

Thats what most them do

[raw ice]

The hovercraft also has a really strong flak cannon against AA, just short range af

[waxen dew]

You can just use any gun against them, as they are light armor

[empty shard]

strong but range is shit

[raw ice]

100%, good against dumb low flying pilots

[chilly jacinth]

Hovercraft is made of tissue paper too

[wooden flicker]

The helis stay high above so much of time

[stuck jolt]

Yea so they dotn get shot

[wooden flicker]

I think they should be 1 shot by stinger

[waxen dew]

Use the hover bike and get up to them

[wooden flicker]

Since they have so many flare

[stuck jolt]

Troll ?

[empty shard]

God how much id wish to have a competent team watching out for vehicles so i could rain fire from my uh60

[raw ice]

The bombs also make a distinctive noise

[wooden flicker]

Idk how to fly in this game

[empty shard]

instead i get one run get stinged and the next round theres two stinger alerts and on the next three stinger alerts

[raw ice]

No one does

[waxen dew]

Literally go up😭

[stuck jolt]

So your a new player complaining about learning how to play the game ...

[empty shard]

stingers: nuh uh

[waxen dew]

Playing Iwo Jima 24/7 is not beginner friendly lol

[raw ice]

I get it tho, stealth can be annoying, especially if you’re new

[wooden flicker]

Thats like main game mode rn

[waxen dew]

It’s a good sweat map cause it’s so open

I love it with helis and jets

[chilly jacinth]

Don't worry i've unbound my flight controls so i haven't learned how to fly in my 1k hours

[waxen dew]

Flying on controller will change your life

It’s so easy

[wooden flicker]

I feel like air vehicle or any is op in bf2042

[waxen dew]

No lol

[raw ice]

Do you just keep your roller plugged in and swap?

[wooden flicker]

Should be nerfed

[empty shard]

Pro Battlefield 2042 air gameplay: Rush to objective - Stay there until RED missile alert - Sharp turn and back to base, at the same time throw flares - Wait until flares are back up - Repeat

[waxen dew]

I play on console….🥀🥀

[chilly jacinth]

Helis are obnoxious af

[raw ice]

Ahh

[wooden flicker]

If its not op then how do they go like 100-2 every game

[waxen dew]

Helis are the bane of my existence,

[stuck jolt]

No you just dont know how to take them down lol ...

[raw ice]

^

[waxen dew]

Especially attack helicopters sitting 500 meters away with 30mm canon

[raw ice]

Use the cram, avoid the bombs

[wooden flicker]

I have a whole team tho why should I take them down

[waxen dew]

Being too far for lis

[warm lake]

he is ragebaiting please stop interacting with him bruh how do you not notice

[raw ice]

That 30mm cannon is the real op thing

That thing is nuts

[waxen dew]

True, I only fly to seat swap the canon lol

[raw ice]

my man

[wooden flicker]

I mean only pilot mains will defend how strong they are

[waxen dew]

Cause they are strong

[raw ice]

Just lock in bro

[wooden flicker]

I hope they change it like the jet change

[waxen dew]

A good attack helicopter can go all match unless another heli challenge them

A helis biggest challenge is another heli

[wooden flicker]

They should have challenge of infantry too

[stuck jolt]

Its a anti air gun lol

[serene cloak]

"Just have unlimited ammo."

[waxen dew]

Especially night birds…🥀

[waxen dew]

Useless when I sit behind a hill peekin up and down

[stuck jolt]

If you know how to shoot you can take down a heli with a cram in under 4 sec

[raw ice]

Pondhawk needs a gun

[wooden flicker]

The new lynx sniper maybe should like do half damage to small helis

[raw ice]

30mm cannon

[empty shard]

its a 50 cal not a mini missile

[waxen dew]

They should just give infantry a portable 30 mm cannon

[wooden flicker]

I have from beta test

[empty shard]

Very realistic

[raw ice]

Hold on, you might be onto something

[waxen dew]

With thermal

Recoil gonna blow my arms off

[stuck jolt]

Thermal is almost always useless

[wooden flicker]

Irl 50 cal can destroy heli

[waxen dew]

On the heli it’s goated

[empty shard]

Bf2042 should just introduce a killstreak to launch a drone swarm and kill every air vehicle on the map

[stuck jolt]

Your trolling right ?

[empty shard]

Yes, but not with 2 shots lel

[waxen dew]

Just add nukes

[raw ice]

Hold on, you might be onto something

[swift oriole]

i want those little scooter launchers in a battlefield game.

[raw ice]

Hold on, you might be onto something

[empty shard]

Breakpoint be like

[wooden flicker]

Bmno

[empty shard]

Antimatter nukes?

[waxen dew]

The kerosene bomb literally looks like a mini nuke when dropped

[raw ice]

We need black holes in BF6

[empty shard]

We need Gta6 in Bf2042

[waxen dew]

GTA 6 in bf2042 before gta 6

[empty shard]

GTA6 before Delta Force m&k on consoles

Im calling it

[waxen dew]

Why don’t when get a B52 in 2042

A proper bomber

[raw ice]

I want them to add a Bronco to 2042

[stuck jolt]

B52 is slower then a bag of cheetos

[chilly jacinth]

Draugr is already annoying af

[waxen dew]

BFV and 1 had actual bombers

[wooden flicker]

These xp farm servers is annoying

[empty shard]

Why cant they just add a Renault 207 to bf2042

[waxen dew]

Give it a trillion HP

[wooden flicker]

Taking up the whole portal

[raw ice]

Where’s the 1991 Miata in 2042

[wooden flicker]

Why is ppl use them

[stuck jolt]

Holy stop complaining

[empty shard]

just make it a killstreak like in bf4

[stuck jolt]

Is that all you do bruh

[wooden flicker]

At lest im not xp farmer

[empty shard]

Chinas rising dlc had the equivalent of a chinese b52

[stuck jolt]

At least xp farmers dont complain every 20 sec

[empty shard]

no theyre actually enjoying not playing bf2042

[wooden flicker]

Idk why u care abt them

[raw ice]

What’s your pfp from?

[empty shard]

friday night

[raw ice]

Ahh

[young panther]

what did you do on friday night to get that?

[raw ice]

They got him

[waxen dew]

You mean bomber you could call on those specific maps?

[empty shard]

[empty shard]

yep

[waxen dew]

It was so weird

[empty shard]

why

it was fun

[waxen dew]

Like inconsistent as hell lol

[empty shard]

Bombing everyone with JDAMS

[wooden flicker]

FNF

[empty shard]

har har har har har

[wooden flicker]

I play that still

On bf2042 the maps is so big and wide except like stadium and redacted

[young panther]

redacted is worst map ive ever played

[wooden flicker]

Bf6 had better maps sizes

[young panther]

insta skip when i get it

[empty shard]

oh boy you wish you came into this game nowadays

[wooden flicker]

I dont like stadium or redacted either

Just like tdm maps

[empty shard]

You might be mindblown but back then, Stadium and Hourglass, was the same map.

[waxen dew]

I only like big maps

[waxen dew]

Still is hehe

[wooden flicker]

Whats hourglass

[empty shard]

I mean technically

[waxen dew]

Doha map

[empty shard]

That Qatar map whith skyscrapers

[pearl ridge]

They really made a new strong aircraft without updating our AA options. Iwo Jima is literally the only map with a meaningful amount of AA positions and stingers are, as we all know, useless against any pilot with a pulse

[empty shard]

Renewal is a nice map fym

[wooden flicker]

Oh idk if I like that one

[waxen dew]

Renewal is so different it’s cool

[empty shard]

I like the change of enviroment

[waxen dew]

It’s like two maps in one

[pearl ridge]

It’s a flat open space with a few buildings scattered about, there is no cover between them

[waxen dew]

Welcome to battlefield

[pearl ridge]

It’s a goddamn shooting gallery

[polar parrot]

true!

[wooden flicker]

Thats like 90% of maps in 2042

[empty shard]

Exactly i love being a moving target

[wooden flicker]

I mean its good for snipers and vehicle mains

[empty shard]

it used to be far worse. You know orbital? with the rockets? that runway was CLEAN. Like, SERIOUSLY, FULLY CLEAN.

[wooden flicker]

But everyone else hates

[pearl ridge]

2042’s maps are pretty much all designed for aesthetic above playability. They took environments that they thought looked cool and didn’t really think about how they’d actually play

[wooden flicker]

I dont know the map names rlly

[waxen dew]

I think they are okay

However I hate spearhead with my heart

[wooden flicker]

I heard 2042 was designed as extraction shooter so all the maps is like that

[waxen dew]

That’s hazard zone

[empty shard]

It was designed to be a battle royale believe it or not

then they got hazard zone after all the hate

[wooden flicker]

Hazrd was suppose to main game right

[waxen dew]

Battlefield will never succeed with the BR

It’s just not fluid for that

[polar parrot]

I always assumed the map design philosophy was supposed to be "it starts off clean but it becomes more war torn when the match goes on oooooo!!"

guess I was wrong about that

[waxen dew]

It is lol

Craters everywhere from bombs

[arctic grove]

But they all play good, ( besides ship maps ) . Thats how battlefield was originaly made and intendent to play

[waxen dew]

Yeah, it’s supposed to be an everywhere fight not just the cod 3 lane type maps

Like redacted is

[wooden flicker]

Battlefield maps werent origanlly that wide and open with no cover were they

[waxen dew]

Since when

[arctic grove]

yeah i played from battlefield 1942 and desert combat

[waxen dew]

The first bf I played, 1943 was legit huge

[wooden flicker]

Its more abt how theres no cover

Theres this skyscraper map and its literally just flat ground most area

[polar parrot]

since as far back as like BF2

[young panther]

kaleidoscope is peak

[polar parrot]

I haven't played 1942 or Vietnam that much to notice anything about the maps

[empty shard]

how dare you call something peak

[wooden flicker]

It feels like almost every map in bf2042 is poorly designed for infantry

[empty shard]

the only thing that should be called peak is Peakuza 5 or Metal Peak Solid 3

[arctic grove]

The respawn timer is like 5 seconds, so its fine

[wooden flicker]

Theres also this one map which is just sand in desert

And not much cover

[empty shard]

El Alamein?

[polar parrot]

yakuza 5 kinda ass though tfym (I'm still in Saejima's part)

[wooden flicker]

I think its different

[young panther]

sounds like someone doesnt know peak

[empty shard]

Imagime youre making orange juice and youre still buying the oranges, thats your playthrough so far

[polar parrot]

look Saejima's part was really unbearable I couldn't be bothered to continue the game

I wanna get it over with and find Akiyama and Shinada

[young panther]

but if the oranges are bad why make orange juice?

[empty shard]

peakuza 5 gets you to fist fight giant bears and youre complaining about some rich hobo and a baseball cheater 🥀

[polar parrot]

I find Judgment more fun than Yakuza 5 lol

[slender bone]

next week we should get more xp because of what we lost from this week

[wooden flicker]

Tru

Hi mods how do I report ban evader

[empty shard]

you would kill half the server

[wooden flicker]

👀

Mods arent rlly communicative

[stuck jolt]

Didnt lose anything this week they fixed it

[pearl ridge]

Okay I have no idea what the hell an objective airdrop is supposed to be at this point because I got two in that last match and I never flew a chopper

Also we won by one point

After you log out and log back in i got it

[stuck jolt]

There is double xp every weekend

[wooden flicker]

Like whole week

[stuck jolt]

People have jobs and work on the week

[slender bone]

its server side when client can't talk to the server

[wooden flicker]

Some ppl need battlepass is so hard to finishh

[stuck jolt]

Its 40 days long for a reason

Wait for the weeklies

[waxen dew]

Am I gonna finish it? I am level 35

[stuck jolt]

Yes wait for the weeklies

You can finish on weeklies alone

[wooden flicker]

No other bp ive ever done has been this grindy

[stuck jolt]

Cool

Its 45 days long for a reason it only takes around 30 hours to finish

[wooden flicker]

Cap

[stuck jolt]

No

[wooden flicker]

That means 2 days

To finish

[stuck jolt]

2 days is 48 hours

[arctic seal]

Everyone else getting error ?

[stuck jolt]

No

[deep burrow]

anyone else having issues joining games?

getting a long ass loading screen and a error every time

[stuck jolt]

Works fine for me

Are you talking about portal

[deep burrow]

nah just normal games

now it works as soon as i complain

its like the game knows

Yeah I’m in eu. Which is a shame

[sterile marsh]

Anyone know when they’re going to bring back the Masterkey attachment?

[wild wraith]

Also why is matchmaking so shit as of recent

[hexed abyss]

who knows if they will?

[sterile marsh]

I just wanted to combine that Pax Armata skin on the AK-5C with Masterkey. If they’ve already done patches to the A-10, I see no reason not to patch back in an attachment that was on multiple weapons

[deep burrow]

surely its not that hard to fix a masterkey acting like aa lmao

LF lis player to sit on the side of my heli to kill tanks and repair. dm

[waxen dew]

No😭 I am not sitting on the side while you do the fun part

[arctic grove]

👾

[modest quiver]

Looks like the lynx inaccuracy bug is back

[lofty cave]

Have DICE mentioned anything about the portal hosting bug (no server found) ?

[waxen dew]

No

[stuck jolt]

You mean the error where it says global server limit ?

[lofty cave]

It's different errors I think, but I usually just get "no server found" with an error code.

[sterile chasm]

Dont think its a bug its just the afk xp servers filling up the global servers

[pearl ridge]

Jesus I hate stealth choppers. Oh yeah fuckin. Give us the firepower of a gunship with higher mobility and straight immunity to locks while still having flares on hand

And it’s also physically quiet too

[timber flame]

No server found isn't a bug. It means that there's some sort of issue with whatever code you are using. Either it's invalid or something went wrong. You usually just wait and it'll go through if it's one you created. Or you can try going back into the editor and resaving it.

[pearl ridge]

Shot one down with my lynx.

That was nice. His fault for staying so close.

[lofty cave]

@timber flame That's not right. It worked fine before the influx of new players. Same servers, same codes. But now they never start.

[stuck jolt]

Just use AA guns or another heli to shoot at it

[pearl ridge]

What AA guns

[sterile chasm]

stationary or the AA vehicle

[pearl ridge]

Mate what game do you think this is

[stuck jolt]

💀 did you not know there are aa guns in this game

[pearl ridge]

They’re not on like 90% of maps

The ones on Haven are irrelevant and the one on Reclaimed is entirely dependant on owning C

[stuck jolt]

The wildcat is nearly on every single map

[pearl ridge]

And the wildcat’s guns fucking suck because it has shit elevation and turret speed

[sterile chasm]

Or play Lis

[stuck jolt]

Change the guns to the 35 instead of the 30

[pearl ridge]

Those aren’t exactly a magic fix

Marginally better range in exchange for being even harder to hit stuff with

[stuck jolt]

Guess its just you ive never had a problem killing aircraft with it

[sterile chasm]

Hopefully they fix vehiclr balance in bf6, they felt kinda weak in the beta (maybe people just sucked)

[pearl ridge]

Also the wildcat spawn is always taken by some idiot who doesn’t know how to look up

[stuck jolt]

Vehicles felt weak in bf6 ?

[pearl ridge]

Seriously do you have any idea how many I’ve seen in spawn trying and failing to hit snipers

Oh no vehicles in BF6 were nasty, if anything the problem there is engineer repairs being too powerful

[stuck jolt]

💀 when i see a map start to get flooded with aircraft i just change to lis

Its free kills

[stuck jolt]

Even without a engineer you could just hop out your self and repair

[sterile chasm]

Didnt pose too much of a threat in my games, atleast not air vehicles. Tanks sometimes yes

[stuck jolt]

90% of the people taking the air vehicles dont know how to fly

[pearl ridge]

Air vehicles were in a particular spot where stingers were legit really powerful but fighters are so fast that you don’t have a hope of gunning them down

[sterile chasm]

The only reason for vehicles to feel super threathening in the first place was because they had 5 engineers repairing them making them basically invincible

[stuck jolt]

Yea since engineer can carry 2 rpgs aswell aircraft are done for most of the time

[craggy oxide]

but there's a risk of someone being nearby and could steal your vehicle

[stuck jolt]

Nah even with none repairing they can easily kill 30+ people before dying, even more if the driver was a engineer and just repaired their own tank

[pearl ridge]

Someone decided to let fighters have off-bore firing for missiles and that’s going to be a real pain

[craggy oxide]

especially deep into enemy territory

[stuck jolt]

Well if you move that far into enemy territory solo then maybe it should get stolen

[pearl ridge]

Like the main hope of shooting down ground attackers has always been catching them on their strafe, and now they don’t even need to be pointing at you

[stuck jolt]

Either way you could just smoke before repairing first

[craggy oxide]

only reason to go there is to cap the next objective with your teammates

[stuck jolt]

I never had someone steal while i was reparing 90% of the time they try and attack you first but you can get into the tank faster then their bullets shoot

[craggy oxide]

honestly, if I manage to take the enemy tank, the first thing I usually do is to get it out and never abandon it

take it back to base and station it on friendly lines while our main tanks does the going into enemy territory

[stuck jolt]

Yea repairing doesn't take long, when your gun overheats you just get back in and move back

[craggy oxide]

pretty much denying the enemy a tank or two

back in BF4, whenever my tank get stolen, I have slams as insurance policy

rig it before the enemy got the time to fight back

[stuck jolt]

You could also just put 3 c4 on your own tank

Put it under the tank so they cant see it

[obsidian sentinel]

I don’t think I got out to repair a single time without someone stealing the tank from me

[craggy oxide]

I'm often paranoid as there's a chance someone could be nearby ready to either shoot me or take the tank

[stuck jolt]

How, ive never had anyone steal mine when repairing it takes like 5 sec

[craggy oxide]

even behind friendly lines, some paratrooper could've dropped in

[obsidian sentinel]

I just stopped getting out. It was usually someone from the machine gunners squad spawning on them and just taking it

[stuck jolt]

Could also just have 1 freindly inside the tank with you so they cant get in

They can man the MG and kill everyone while your repairing

[craggy oxide]

having a machine gunner with you is probably the best idea

the enemy can't take the tank if someone is inside it, even if it's just the MG

[obsidian sentinel]

Oh I meant teammates stealing it!

[craggy oxide]

oh nvm

[stuck jolt]

Oh what i dont think ive ever had a teammate steal it either lol

[obsidian sentinel]

I did manage to steal a tank from the other team in one of the matches during the beta on breakthrough. We ended up with 3 and they had none

[craggy oxide]

I rarely see teammates steal your tank unless they decide to be scumbags

[obsidian sentinel]

It felt like every time I jumped out for a second to repair I’d look up and my spots gone

[craggy oxide]

whenever I get bored in BF4, I sometimes drive a tank in enemy territory and rig it with slams and leaving it out for the enemy to take

it's funny when they didn't take the time to check the tank and think they got a free tank

sure C4 could work too

but there's a possibility of being killed and the C4 being rendered useless

[desert lynx]

i got it thanks!

oof bc2 mode

[slender bone]

shakes my head

[wild wraith]

Get wait to get tier 60 so I can stop playing

We still got 32 days left so ain’t no way we ain’t all getting tier 60

[stuck jolt]

People are rushing for no reason, the weeklies alone give you around 40 levels lmao

[wheat helm]

Guys just play the game and appreciate how much of a gem it truely is!!

[pearl ridge]

You can tell a bunch of these newer players haven’t played a Battlefield since 4 because they’re all using 971s and an94s

[wheat helm]

Also thank you for letting me farm kd on all of you noobs

[red knot]

Do I have to complete all the weekly challenges to unlock the weekly bonus mission?

[silver plover]

Only need 5 challenges completed to unlock the weekly 👍🏻

[hushed wolf]

not all, but enough

[red knot]

Thanks

[hushed wolf]

what counts as "explosive multi-kill" for the mission?

[vast beacon]

it shows right next to the bonus mission

[vast beacon]

with a launcher probably

[red knot]

Multi = more than two

[vast beacon]

weekends

[silver plover]

C5 counts

[pearl ridge]

I’m fucking convinced that the game chat censors hacker

[hushed wolf]

ahhh., that makes sense as i had plenty of doubles and didn't count

[vast beacon]

multi should mean 2 or more than 2

[stuck jolt]

Pretty sure multi kill is 4 kills

what

[desert lynx]

it's 3

[pearl ridge]

Looking at the equipment set for the A10. Fuck all of this. They gave it flares and a radar jammer

[vast beacon]

that's why I am not getting that 🤦

[desert lynx]

man im happy that the bc2 mode is back

[desert lynx]

it's 3 not 2

[vast beacon]

rush one?

[desert lynx]

bc2 deja vu

[pearl ridge]

Plus a kit to increase turning so you can’t even dogfight it down

[desert lynx]

so conquest + rush

[stuck jolt]

A-10 is slower then dog water anyway

[hushed wolf]

does Conquest 128 generally have more vehicles than Conquest 64?

[pearl ridge]

Going in solo to grind enough starting equipment to make an aircraft useful is always such a pain in the ass

The tick rate is terrible and it noticeably affects flight performance

[stuck jolt]

Guess what im doing right now

[pearl ridge]

Plus the shit hit reg

[stuck jolt]

Its sooo slow

[pearl ridge]

They used to have solo run on full tick rate you know

But I guess that was tooooo hard

Like a faction switch

[stuck jolt]

Bruh wtf 450 kills, assist with the UH-60

[pearl ridge]

Yeah I know right

[stuck jolt]

Guess ill just sit afk and let npcs spawn on me

🤑

[pearl ridge]

Transports in particular have awful levelling because they think way more people spawn on them than they actually do

[wild wraith]

I love only getting one node per game

It feels so rewarding to play 30 minutes and only get 1

[stuck jolt]

Pov no one is spawning on me not even npcs :/

[wild wraith]

Can’t wait to never touch this game again

[stuck jolt]

What level are you

[pearl ridge]

Oh, shit, I have to get sixty kills to level this fat fuck?

[wild wraith]

Rn I’m 36 and it’s around 19k per node. So I can earn like 1 and three quarters of the nodes

[pearl ridge]

I really truly hate how they lock basic functionality behind the grind. It’s like how in bf3 you had to unlock flares

[wild wraith]

So I’m baso earning two but I’m like always 2k xp off the last node

[pearl ridge]

muh progression fuck right off with that I just want my stuff to work

[stuck jolt]

Just wait for weeklies

You dont need to play if you dont like the game lol

[civic crater]

i'm bp lvl 37, this shit is tragic

u get like jack diddly squat🥹

[stuck jolt]

Im level 60 so i dont have to worry about grinding anymore

[civic crater]

woah, already?

[stuck jolt]

Yea there are a ton of people who are 60 already

I saved most of my weeklies for the higher levels

Its around 40k per pip at 50

[civic crater]

that's so smart actually😭

[hushed wolf]

wait, how do you "save" them?

[stuck jolt]

It seems like most people forget that its 40 days long for a reason 😅

[pearl ridge]

Solo grinding is so dogshit oh my god

A big part of air support is spotting right

Bots can’t spot

They’re literally not coded for it. They can do static pings and I’m starting to think that this game was originally designed without 3d spotting

And they never updated the stupid bots

Because why would they? That’d be something useful

Unfortunately, bot-driven wildcats are better at aiming than 90% of human drivers

Christ how the fuck am I supposed to do anything with this when the gun doesn’t do splash without an unlock and the starter secondary is AA

I fucking hate this game

[south hatch]

Does anyone that play this game use mics?

Finding a person that talks is so damn rare

[pearl ridge]

Most people that care to talk only do so in party chats these days

And there’s a bug that randomly makes your mic just not register about half the time

[hushed wolf]

i don't even see anyone typing in chat

[south hatch]

I swear I get into bot lobbies

It’s hard to find people that talk

It makes the game way better

[stuck jolt]

@pearl ridge what are you leveling up right now ?

[pearl ridge]

A-10

[stuck jolt]

Oh god

[pearl ridge]

I have a grand total of seven assists and zero kills across multiple solo matches because this thing is unusable at first and bots are downright schizophrenic so you can never figure out what they’re going to do next

[south hatch]

I’m really about to rant

WHY THE HELL DID I GET RUSH IN A CONQUEST CATEGORY????

God made heaven and hell

[stuck jolt]

Idk how i could even help if i wanted to

[south hatch]

Heaven being conquest and hell being fucking rush

Also why am I getting rush in a conquest category

I’m going to beat my child

[somber totem]

But the per pip cost in XP only increases when you get another (or few) XP pips. The amount of XP needed per pip is related to how many XP pips you earn, and has nothing to do with the weekly mission rewards.

[south hatch]

I don’t have children

[stuck jolt]

What are you talking about ? I never said it was linked with weekly missions, weekly missions give pip not xp

[somber totem]

Then how (or why?) did you try to "save" weeklies for higher levels? I can't seem to save them because they just fall through gameplay.

[vast beacon]

Did they add some post game music ?

[stuck jolt]

Like i said the higher you get the more xp you need ... so by saving the weeklies for when your higher level like 40-50 you get to max level faster

[desert lynx]

done with the missions finally

[tired wolf]

even looking around in-game it's rare to see someone else with any "presence", their in-game body language makes it seem like they are unaware of anything going on the environment. Only sayin that because if voice isn't available, or text, at least I can work with body language but most people seem to be in their own little world, maybe in front of a huge TV or something idk

[polar parrot]

I wanted to play some bf2042 to pass the time and the game keeps telling me about persistence data or some shit

[lyric nimbus]

ive been playing last 3 weeks like 5/8 hours per day and still on level 47 on the battlepass.. aggggggggggggg

i lost 100 hours of my life last weeks

[stuck jolt]

Why are you playing so much ? If you dont like the game is a waste of time

You can finish the battle pass in around 30 hours if you do it right

[lyric nimbus]

i just wanted the skins.. but its too hard..

[stuck jolt]

Since your rushing for no reason

Its 40 days long for a reason, with 7 weeklies

[lyric nimbus]

i got a reason.. i only bougth one month ea pass xD

i must complete all in 4 weeks

[hardy tinsel]

Can anyone help me get the air drop challenge done ?

[desert lynx]

the game was 3 euros no

[lyric nimbus]

no money brother, i dont have food

[desert lynx]

what are you talking about

[stuck jolt]

People dont think

[silver plover]

Must have a free trial for EA pass?

Game is dirt cheap, even kids could get it with pocket money 🤣

[south hatch]

Y’all some yappers

Go to general

[stuck jolt]

No

[desert lynx]

lmao we are talking about 2042

no one is tagging u man

[silver plover]

Seen so many type here, "I got no money" HTF do you have something to play on 🤣

[lyric nimbus]

I've spent $70 in the last 10 years on just one game, and that was Battlefield 6... and that meant I had to go a week without eating.

[desert lynx]

if that's your financial situation maybe you shouldnt buy a game?

[silver plover]

I'd sooner eat than not

[lyric nimbus]

ive been waiting 15 years

[polar parrot]

You can buy BF6 after launch dude

[desert lynx]

how can your computer support thegame even

and bf2042 is just for skins... you can play it regardless?

[polar parrot]

Why are you sacrificing your wellbeing just to buy a video game

[silver plover]

I paid less than £70 for phantom edition. I still have money to provide. I shop around for good prices.

[polar parrot]

is Battlefield 2042 working for anyone else? I can't seem to get into matchmaking

as in the option for matchmaking it not even there

[stuck jolt]

Isnt it 100

[silver plover]

For digital on Xbox
£90 for disc version

[fast thunder]

Ts pmo icl 💔

[polar parrot]

After playing 2042 for a while I'm really grateful that they're adding custom search to BF6

because my god these ship maps are some hot ass

[wild wraith]

I hate every map besides Iwo Jima lmao

Every other map I’ll get like 20k xp without 2xp but on Iwo Jima I’ll get 40k without 2xp

[stuck jolt]

Bro this vehicle xp shit needs to GO the planes are worse then a bag of cheetos unless they are max level

[somber totem]

But the amount of XP needed per pip isn't tied to the level of the BP you're on. You need more XP per pip the more you get XP pips.

[stuck jolt]

Ok so what does that change about what i said ?

[somber totem]

I'm just confused by the idea there's a value in trying to save the weekly missions. Yes, it will help knock down a more expensive pip later, but getting the pips from a weekly earlier won't affect the overall effort needed to clear the BP.

[sterile chasm]

saving the points for later tiers 100% lessens the overall effor to clear the BP

[stuck jolt]

Yes it does ... im already level 60, it only takes around 20 hours to get from 0 to around 40

[safe thistle]

Can I get free season pass points at Ai fight?

[stuck jolt]

Then you can just finish the missions to get to around 50

[stuck jolt]

Solo mode no, portal mode yes

[safe thistle]

Thanks

[somber totem]

My point is that getting weekly mission pips does not affect the amount per pip in the separate, perpetual XP mission. Because that's not how the XP points per pip advance works. The upper limit per pip only increases as you earn XP pips, not clear weekly missions, or advance through the BP.

[stuck jolt]

I dont get whats hard to understand

[sterile chasm]

i might be retraded but i did not understand what you are trying to say, but saving the weeklies for last levels is millions of times more valuable than to do them at early levels

1 pip/ tier or whatever is like 7k xp in the first levels and lets say after tier 35 its 30k xp. In what world is the pips you get from weeklies THE SAME VALUE no matter the tier ur at?

its just gonna get exponentially more valauble

just like the xp required

ik im not good at maths but come on thats not so hard to understand

[oblique breach]

im retraded too brother!

[craggy oxide]

when I played Siege of Cairo, it suddenly reminded me of the Battle of Marawi

[oblique breach]

bro why does this game put me on the russian team again and again and again i want to be on the us so i can fly the goddamn nerfed warthog

[craggy oxide]

[oblique breach]

the amount of time i've wasted in the main menu doing: lmb, x, lmb, x, lmb, x, lmb, x..

[oblique breach]

i think the weeklies give orbs rather than xp

or im stupid

probably the latter

[echo sun]

ya they do give tiers but I think he means the lower tiers are less xp so you can grind them and save the missions for the harder tiers?

but idk if that's true or not

[oblique breach]

when weekly missions come out theres a number in a blue circle next to each mission saying smth like 3 or 4 or 5

so isnt that the amount of orbs you get when completing

they give orbs and not xp right?

[echo sun]

yaya but i think the xp per orb is more at later pass levels?

[stuck jolt]

Yes near level 50 its around 40k per orb

[somber totem]

Neither do I. In no way did I make it easier for myself to earn 6 pips for a weekly mission from week one in week three. In no way did I help myself by suppressing the per XP pip cost by "saving" that mission, either, as weeklies don't advance the XP cost. Maybe if I'm looking at some conversion rate that doesn't matter (per XP cost for mission pips), but I'm also not concerned about having to earn 40-50K XP for a point because I'll never see that during this BP.

[lavish wyvern]

Another day, Another Session of Torture

[sterile chasm]

yes exactly, why its more valuable the higher tier you are

[stuck jolt]

Weeklies give pip not xp, if your below level 35 its useless to use the weekly mission and waste all your free pips when at the higher level its much more useful and time saving it shouldnt be that hard to understand

[oblique breach]

thats what i was saying.. or at least trying to

[somber totem]

But the XP cost has nothing to do with the BP level. So, it really doesn't matter. You have finished the pass, as I understand it. As a result, you had to earn A LOT more XP mission pips than anyone else just chilling out, and taking their time. This is what jacked up your cost per pip so high. Because every two or three passes through the XP limit for a pip, it increases. This limit for an XP mission pip does not increase as you earn mission pips.

That's my only point. Which, in the end, makes "saving" the missions just one more thing to try to do when it really isn't necessary.

[stuck jolt]

I didnt spend much time at all since i saved the weeklies i was able to skip all the high cost pip and get to 60 3 days ago now

[somber totem]

But you also didn't save any time, either. Because you still had to earn the same number of XP pips regardless. 🤷‍♂️ Anyone earning that many XP pips throughout the pass would have had to earn the same XP no matter when they earned weekly missions.

[stuck jolt]

No. I earned less xp overall what are you talking about ?

[robust venture]

Level 44 on the pass, when will this pain end 😭

[somber totem]

No you didn't.

[sterile chasm]

yes you require the same amount of xp BUT you dont actually need to play / earn all that same xp if you save the weeklies for last tier

pips at early levels = 7k xp, pips at later tier = 30k xp. Its that simpel

[stuck jolt]

20 levels = 370,000 × 20

37 × 2 = 74

add 4 zeros→ 7,400,000 XP

Total = 7,400,000 XP
compared to spending the weeklies on lower levels spending overall much more time grinding the battlepass, i was talking about time saved from it

[echo yew]

im new to the game what should i do

[obsidian sentinel]

Play it

[echo yew]

ive played it for about a week

[obsidian sentinel]

Keep playing it

[echo yew]

idk what to do more its so good but i idk how to learn new things

[sterile chasm]

play the game

[stuck jolt]

Its not hard to understand at all, you save time by using weekly missions at higher level instead of early game

[wanton marsh]

When does double xp weekend startt

[sterile chasm]

ok but nobody at any point said pips increase xp required?????

[obsidian sentinel]

I don’t know if it’s true but Orange is saying the opposite

[obsidian sentinel]

Tomorrow night

[echo yew]

i there any like half famous youtuber in this server?

[obsidian sentinel]

They are both right in their arguments just don’t know if missions increase xp required or not

[somber totem]

It's in no way tied to the BP levels. You're an outlier. The developers weren't thinking "how can we make it so everyone finishes in three weeks" which is what you did. You blew out the XP cost per point by earning way more XP tokens than anyone needs, and perceived it has to do with the BP level, which it does not.

The end goal is also pips, so you're making an unnecessary conversion when you convert weekly pips to XP. They're already pips, which is what we're collecting!

[obsidian sentinel]

I’m getting on to test it 🤓
