battlefield-2042

[arctic grove]

will i be able to play as a transgender character

[rocky apex]

With the current market you'll need to win the lottery to buy one

[formal ore]

Do you have a source for that? I couldn't find anything that explicitly covered the scope of it.

[royal night]

I mean is it worth going next gen xbox just for 128 players

[summer crescent]

maybe they should just make the specalists pickups like in BF1

[night vessel]

https://tenor.com/view/fun-fu-fiesta-guy-slavs-gif-5434524

[stiff pollen]

Shitty system that 9/10 players didn’t use because one archetype in each class was meta

[south tinsel]

Oh boy I sure do hope they add 2nd President of the United States, John Adams, as a playable specialist in the next installment of my favorite series known as Battlefield 2042

[eternal storm]

Sure you got any at tesco for me

[sonic haven]

scalpers ruining the market 😡

[glass swan]

As long they don’t do it like treyarch they implemented the worst hero system ever it’s beyond horrible basically free kill streaks every 3 mins

[wind wasp]

Yeah specialist system is going to ruin the game

[stiff pollen]

Tom Henderson tweet, he was write about much of the game

[wind wasp]

It sucks

[arctic grove]

Yeah f15 was tested

[sonic haven]

specialists are prolly just classes

[trim surge]

i want big chungus as a playable specialist and a dude with a clown mask and clown hair

[arctic grove]

We’ll see hopefully soon but it sounds like old gen will have the maps tapered to fit 64 people

[stiff yacht]

Ppl saying specialists will ruin the game and we haven’t even seen gameplay of it

[arctic grove]

But f14 was used mostly vs migs

[spark acorn]

HERE IT FUCKING COMES

[royal night]

Yeah if all the reveals and that look good as well as gameplay we will see

[sonic haven]

tuktuk will ruin the game

[stiff pollen]

“NoPat US proxy yells to get to cover as tornado engulfs street”

[formal ore]

don't think anyone says "ruining", just that it's a shitty idea

[night vessel]

RUNNN

[south tinsel]

They won't detract from the game at all I'm just sad because I would rather full character customization

[night vessel]

https://tenor.com/view/run-fresh-prince-will-smith-leave-go-gif-7455284

[arctic grove]

I just want it to be good so bad. I’m sick of playing bf4 with the same 100 people

[night vessel]

everyones face when they see it

[formal ore]

I'd pay good money for proper customization

[rocky apex]

Lasst thing and then I really sleep

[eager sun]

just hope levilotion is massive in bf2042

[eternal storm]

I think we won’t know how good or shit it is til we play it and by then it’ll be too late

[glass swan]

Forreal like I read on it and it doesn’t sound that bad, the only bad thing I feel like is when I would want to use other perks, will I only have perks made for that class, or will I be able to use other ones, either than that it’s all good

[sonic haven]

I play bf1 with the same 100 sweats

[arctic grove]

No-pats sounds like enemy team

[trim surge]

same i wish they get that customization they had like back then in bf play 4 free

[sonic haven]

always fucking with me when I manage to get a plane

[rocky apex]

DID YOU SEE THE TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURLE (left guy)

[arctic grove]

Arma3 gives you what you need and want.

[eager sun]

wat about 6 eye sam on the right

[stiff yacht]

me running from the tornado like —>

[surreal mural]

2042 needs cross-play

[trim surge]

is there an asian on the left corner of the picture?

[iron comet]

I am so excited for the gameplay reveal.

[south tinsel]

guy on the rights face tho

[eternal storm]

Milsim nerds Too extreme

[arctic grove]

It has it

[glass swan]

The customization look promising looks like you could change almost anything on you

[carmine elbow]

The only thing I want: Please get rid of specialist. Make them as cosmetics. And there 1st gadget can be used under the class they are under. Like that grapple dude would be under assault and his gadget can be used by assualt.

[surreal mural]

some people where saying its not certian

[eternal storm]

Then a medic is also a sniper? That seems shit

[arctic grove]

My issue is if there is one or two specialists that are busted (which there will be) 60% of the lobby will look and play the same

[rocky apex]

Looks like an Asian woman. I think this scene was on the South Korea map so that makes sense

[formal ore]

Oh I know,

Play time:
2053.5 hours

[kindred mason]

Bro why are there 2 of the same models in the background

[night vessel]

Do you guys think we might see the walkers ?

[carmine elbow]

I hate the specialist

[arctic grove]

It's 2021 all fps games have crossplay

[rocky apex]

To save time I guess

[warped pilot]

probably in the future dlc

[desert ridge]

Crossplay was never mentioned

[south tinsel]

Heh, get on my level

Playtime: 3,402.7 hours
Last Played : May 27

[stiff pollen]

Whoever asked about the specialist system, Tom says it’s an extension of the class system. Not a replacement

[rocky apex]

Alright goodnight everybody

[kindred mason]

Also may someone pls provide a pic of the Kaleidoscope map

[stiff pollen]

https://www.reddit.com/r/battlefield2042/comments/nw52zc/tom_has_been_able_to_explain_the_specialist/

[glass swan]

Well then this game ain’t for you buddy sounds like you need to pick up overwatch maybe pre order overwatch 2

[rocky apex]

[surreal mural]

ok, then i am really looking forward to it

[upper sage]

any word about community servers

[south tinsel]

sleep well!

[kindred mason]

Gn

[carmine elbow]

Good now I have hope

[lone meadow]

No word yet

[stiff yacht]

[arctic grove]

It's there lol if not

[stiff pollen]

Yeah I don’t get why EA dice didn’t specify that

[arctic grove]

I just bought the ultimate edition

[stiff pollen]

Seems like a very big deal

[arctic grove]

Does anyone know when the beta comes out?

[eternal storm]

What are you talking about? I like the old@class system where I couldn’t just change from a carbine to assault rifle@without dying

[formal ore]

Niiiiiice

[desert ridge]

its 100% not going to be crossplay between old gen and new because of the hardware diff

[rocky apex]

This page kinda does but nobody reads ▶️ https://www.ea.com/games/battlefield/battlefield-2042/game-overview/specialists

[surreal mural]

how would cross play work with the old and new gen consoles

[spark acorn]

danke schone

[desert ridge]

ot wouldnt

it

[arctic grove]

It won't

[stiff pollen]

I read it, they should’ve clarified it better.

[spark acorn]

Can't wait to wear an Australian military uniform in-game.

[stiff pollen]

It made it sound like it replaced it rather than supplemented the system we have

[arctic grove]

Well cross progression EA did that in 2013 limited time but crossplay it's there

[glass swan]

I was talking about cosmetics you’re talking about classes ahhdhahsh either way I don’t care it doesn’t limit your playstyle which I guess is alright

[lone meadow]

You can only change attachments on the go not weapons unless you pick one up

I think

[blissful pond]

I think the only thing I'm slightly concerned about is the specialists

[surreal mural]

some say it will some say it wont.... guess i will just have to wait

[rocky apex]

I guess, we'll probably have a lot more clarity after the 13th

!when

[formal ore]

it doesn't really give much information about it, it sounds more like it's directly replacing classes

[azure lodge]

Battlefield 2042 Reveal Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ASzOzrB-a9E
Gameplay World Premiere time is an estimate.

[night vessel]

That would be so pog bro a new good looking model of the walker would be dope. I always loved this photo shot of it.

[upper sage]

I really hope they didnt ditch community servers

[quartz fable]

well yeah but never made it to vietnam.

[formal ore]

they did

[stiff pollen]

They did

[surreal mural]

lol

[stiff pollen]

Community servers don’t make them money

[potent matrix]

Is it just me or After watcher the trailer for 118 times I feel like I don't like the music

[desert ridge]

lmao they would have to sacrifice player count map size everything for new gen to run with old gen and both be balanced in terms of fps and graphics

[potent matrix]

[arctic grove]

PS4 and Xbox one only supports 64 players, while new consoles support 128 players.

[glass swan]

Damn bruh wtf, I hope they atleast add them in, in the near end of the game life cycle

[desert ridge]

ps4 will melt on a pc 128 player server

[stiff yacht]

Just you. Kickstart my Heart is goated

[arctic grove]

It's still there many experiment tested and used

[white geyser]

[glass swan]

They only got. 64 no 128

[desert ridge]

yeah ik

[surreal mural]

they said it would be more sandbox and creativity would expand

[blissful pond]

who thinks this bf's reveal was epic

[vivid aurora]

New bf looks ass cheeks

[spark acorn]

What time is the BF2042 gameplay reveal on June 13th?

[glass swan]

Shit was sexy haven’t felt like that ever since the bf1 reveal trailer

[night vessel]

[stiff pollen]

Literally every youtuber said dice EA didn’t clarify if there would be community servers, they didn’t even comment on anti cheat either

[potent matrix]

[somber hinge]

game looks really good tbh got a lot more info from the jackfrags video

[gilded falcon]

Yeah

[arctic grove]

Anyone seen Russian specialist seem like ak74m

[blissful pond]

Totally agree, every time Kickstart My Heart kicks in I get goosebumps.

[lone meadow]

Yea he put quite a bit out

[glass swan]

Forreal I cannot stop watching the trailer

It’s eye and audio candy

[blissful pond]

what are ppl's thoughts on full progression being enabled in AI bot matches

[arctic grove]

Trailer lol

[cobalt breach]

Idk mates

[lone meadow]

I say good

[cobalt breach]

Was this how we played BF

[somber hinge]

idc tbh whats the harm in that?

[cobalt breach]

"In previous games, I never really chose a Class based on their gadget," admits associate producer Marie Bustgaard Granlund. "I was more going towards the weapon that was tied to that Class

[blissful pond]

I think it's good, I just wanted to know

[flint jay]

Totally fine, for me personally after restarting BF4 getting the gun progression was so fucking annoying and I ended up using XP boost servers

[formal ore]

Great idea tbh, let's more people get into the game and gives a good place for teams to practice strats

[glass swan]

They’ve been working on the AI since before bf1 I think the AI will be somewhat organic in this game which is why they’ll go in that route

[lone meadow]

Same with vehicles

[stiff pollen]

I literally play against bots more than I do with actual people

So I love it

[vital sluice]

I was thinking about it, As long as the specialists are all unlockable via battlepass It'll be fine, But if they do what COD has done where you have to buy 20 dollar bundles for them, That won't be ok.

[tribal ruin]

It should be 0.5x progression

[stiff pollen]

Bots in battlefield games are the future IMO

[somber hinge]

Ye its better imo, I might even give it a try for fun tbh, I usually stay away because it usually doesn't allow progression in most games

[formal ore]

why?

[tribal ruin]

bots are ez

[eternal storm]

Keep specialists but get rid of their names, and backstory shit

[arctic grove]

These bots better be good

[stiff pollen]

They didn’t need to add progression but they did and I appreciate that a lot

Could’ve been like SWBF2 instant action

Or coop

[flint jay]

Normal BF4 progression takes so so long I was only able to progress as fast as I did because of like triple XP and boost servers. Most of the shit I want to use I probably wouldn't be able to get because base game was such a grind

[vital sluice]

Make them more anonymous to keep the feeling of scale, Good idea.

[glass swan]

Well we’re in the future and tech is better who knows this AI can be different and a step up

[arctic grove]

I'm 80 percent sure there's no bp

[stiff pollen]

There a lot of people that love battlefield but just don’t like playing online with people

[rocky apex]

In before they 360 no scope us and absolutely slap cheecks

[vital sluice]

There is a BP

[blissful pond]

I will personally use bot matches to grind unlocks and then use that online

[glass swan]

They confirmed hella bruhh ahshha

[south tinsel]

its confirmed there is

[stiff pollen]

I will literally play bot matches more than online more than likely

[flint jay]

Same

[stiff pollen]

I love me some PVE

[formal ore]

don't see any reason to reduce the XP gain from bots though, no reason to hamper people's progress if they're struggling to find populated games in their timezone.

[eternal storm]

I don’t want to be assigned any race or gender other than my own. If I’m a black woman I should be able to play as one…not be forced to be a Russian dude.

[tired cargo]

Guys people think the gamemode ea mentioned is gonna be like Tarkov

[toxic quest]

https://tenor.com/view/dove-post-this-dove-gif-19667326

[vital sluice]

Actually, Agreed.

[glass swan]

Hope there’s pve gamemodes something like spec ops that’d be lit asf

[somber hinge]

hopefully the anticheat is good bfv was riddled with cheaters

[soft kayak]

🚩

[flint jay]

Are you being sarcastic?

[eternal storm]

No.

[lone meadow]

I hope he is

[vital sluice]

On top of that, COD ghosts had a really awesome cosmetic set up, Different vests, heads, hats, etc

[arctic grove]

Lol

[stiff pollen]

I can’t role play as a buff Russian grandpa wtf

[glass swan]

Jajajhahsh

[stiff pollen]

[flint jay]

I can't tell, sarcasm doesn't work in text

[trim surge]

i agree

[lone meadow]

Are you a mootard?

[cerulean dove]

This is a gamer moment

[south tinsel]

omg i totally forgot about ghosts, it had really good customization

[eternal storm]

My point is people should be able to play as whatever skin they want and not be locked to these hero skins

[vital sluice]

IKR

[soft kayak]

I like the gadgets the specialists have, but I do with I could pick my face

[trim surge]

yea and add skin customization in case they dont like the skin design

[flint jay]

But they're specialists

[stiff pollen]

Ghosts had th best customization lol, too bad the game was hated by the fans

[arctic grove]

this game is gonna be so sweet

[formal ore]

Agreed, I much prefer being able to create a character that I can project myself into. I don't play these kinds of games for that, there's plenty of other "hero" type games that work perfectly fine with that.

[lone meadow]

Dice doesn’t wanna get involved in that shit

[soft kayak]

could they not just be subclasses?

[urban garden]

When is the beta?!?!?!?!?!?

[vital sluice]

I don't like playing someone elses story unless its is a single player game

[lone meadow]

It went bad for them in BFV

[blissful pond]

wait so are there gonna be normal gadgets or does every specialist only have access to one

[flint jay]

Why does the character even matter

[vital sluice]

In a world thats kind of kind to shit it'd be nice to be your own person

[arctic grove]

is the ultimate gonna be worth it or are you guys gonna stick with the the basic package?

[trim surge]

there was customization in bf play 4 free before

why not again?

[south tinsel]

Exactllyy, I already do that with games anyways, I always play the character that I can project myself onto the easiest

[blissful turret]

It's worth it to support the game :D

[eternal storm]

I honestly dunno why they have went this route they could have achieved money through skins without doing this

[vital sluice]

I'll have to see how much money I have when I go to buy it

[arctic grove]

Gameplay determine if I will buy battlefield 2042 I hope it standout to be itself and not try to copy call of duty just for money

[soft kayak]

all of the specialist gadgets are unique and change a lot. So I dont think there will be a whole specialist for something like c4. Id bet there is a second gadget slot

[arctic grove]

this might be the deciding factor for me as well

[lone meadow]

We want less micro transactions not more

[vital sluice]

I hope it copies call of duty and absolutely fucking stomps it in all its fields on top of what BF is good at

[lone meadow]

I already pre ordered lol

[eternal storm]

Exactly! Im happy to be generic grunt#1727

[south tinsel]

That's never going to happen as microtransactions have proven incredibly profitable

[arctic grove]

React here if ur tag is 2042

[soft kayak]

It was clearly a gameplay choice

[trim surge]

i feel they lied when they said its a love letter

[arctic grove]

well they are doing season passes so i dont think micro transactions are gonna go away @lone meadow

[flint jay]

Exactly, that's good

[formal ore]

Because a huge portion of the gaming population highly value being able to create an avatar in games.

[arctic grove]

Qatar pls ❤️

[lone meadow]

It’s a special mode they have coming that isn’t being released

[arctic grove]

Lol I won't buy if it's COD clone never really why I play Battlefield

[somber hinge]

if you buy it on steam will it still launch through origin?

[flint jay]

Yes

[worn whale]

I really don't mind these battle passes but I just hope they don't release anime or clown outfits

[south tinsel]

I will riot if I can't be an anime femboy wearing thigh highs and a miniskirt

[soft kayak]

yeah I dont really see how several canadian dudes is different than having several indian dudes in bf1.

[worn whale]

and cat ears

[lone meadow]

They said the battlepass will be more cosmetics if you purchase the pass

[paper lance]

Ayo

[flint jay]

I hope the same shit with BFV doesn't happen just because people can't pick their character look

[arctic grove]

anyone got tenet vibes from the music during the shipment part and the battlefield 2042 part

[trim surge]

they added funky characters now its time for fortnite dances

[lone meadow]

What happened?

[worn whale]

I got the ultimate edition which means I got the pass

[lone meadow]

Same

[south tinsel]

you people and your disposable income

[stiff pollen]

I hope this time the VA for the female characters aren’t obnoxious af

[flint jay]

But who knows maybe they will let you

[eternal storm]

Honestly the only reason I liked Seamus in bf5 was because how many times have you seen a northern Irish commando in a video game lol. But I’m a very specific subset of the planet to appreciate him lol

[arctic grove]

i miss the time when there were no battle pases
just simple dlc and when games didnt have this much customisations

[trim surge]

i hope the cosmetics aren't clown hair and clown mask and rather else something a soldier can wear during a fight

[soft kayak]

he was one of the most tame elites they released. and therefore one of the few good ones

[lone meadow]

I work 12 hour days every day and I rarely spend money on games

[foggy gazelle]

Say no to specialists lol

[lyric heart]

Hey what’s up with the tornado in the trailer

[arctic grove]

lets see what they are about

[soft kayak]

random event

[south tinsel]

God is angry

[karmic lake]

for me specialists are better than classes

[lyric heart]

Okay but it just materializes lmao

[flint jay]

Religion in bf2042 confirmed?

[arctic grove]

i mean they can be like black ops specialist or something completely new
or just classes but with a new name

[lyric heart]

the crusades have begun

[vital sluice]

imagine if it decided how fast you respawn

[somber hinge]

same

[formal ore]

That's one way to invite some hate haha 😄

[flint jay]

I want there to be crosses in bf2042 because I want people to know I am a christian

[worn whale]

I reckon these 2 are like the normal "outfit" for the Russian troops

[south tinsel]

ameno plays violently loud

[lone meadow]

I liked classes cause imo a medic with a M240B is OP Asf

[soft kayak]

my main concern is that certain specialist and weapon combos will be easy to cheese.

[foggy gazelle]

but it’s literally just classes but with cringy characters that ruin the immersion

[flint jay]

I also want a clown hat so people know im a clown

[eternal storm]

I’m from NI and was a British commando for 8 years lol. Also glad that game had the SBS in it. I’d rather their system for skins rather than this new shit tho

[soft kayak]

nope theyre a specialist

[arctic grove]

kindont get one thing

[blissful pond]

best map anyone? Reply with the map you like most: 🏙️ = Kaleidoscope 🏜️ = Hourglass 🚀 = Orbital 🧊 = Breakaway 🚢 = Discarded 🧑‍🌾 = Renewal 🏗️ = Manifest

[arctic grove]

why was the ah6j shooting the us army

[karmic lake]

its better than having to select a class that only has 1 type of weapon

[arctic grove]

why was the little bird shooting up its own team mates

[south tinsel]

Clownin if you think it's anything besides Kaleidoscope

[lone meadow]

There is no true country anymore, seems like I see Russian outfits on the same team as American ones

I could be wrong

[worn whale]

weird how they'd keep showing these soldiers with the exact same outfits lol

[soft kayak]

Which one is cringy?

[foggy gazelle]

no? it’s the same but with cringy characters lol. gadgets are dependent on classes and weapons can be any sure

[eternal storm]

That’s prob true if the game is making us pick Boris or whoever regardless of team

[foggy gazelle]

all of them. playing as boris will just ruin the immersion for me

[formal ore]

But the point of limiting weapon selection is so that the class abilities/gear can be more powerful from a balancing perspective

[lone meadow]

True

[arctic grove]

send more bf2042 screenshots

[flint jay]

What's so cringe about them

[soft kayak]

why is a russian character immersion breaking?

[vital sluice]

thats usually how a military works

[trim surge]

thats smart of ea instead of blaming the war on the russians like cod always does

[formal ore]

like giving engineers a short range weapon and a weapon that can drop vehicles

[somber hinge]

I personally like that primary weapons aren't locked to class

[arctic grove]

russian support from bf3 BETTER BE A SKIN

I miss HIm

[tired cargo]

I hope we get a post launch American city map

[trim surge]

when will cod blame the chineese

[flint jay]

[formal ore]

and not allowing supports to camp on a hill with a 50cal sniper and infinite ammo

[soft kayak]

probably some generic stock skins for one of the specilists

[foggy gazelle]

i mean named characters. the nameless and even faceless characters allow you to kinda see yourself as that character. this way i’m limited to playing as boris

[south tinsel]

They should add a map that's just the middle of the Sahara desert with literally nothing but sand

And make it like 400km^2

[tired cargo]

Bruh

[eternal storm]

I agree. We should be able to just pick a camo and helmet type. Having a character from@fucking Canada is pointless unless you’re Canadian

[rotund roost]

that'd just be trash

[arctic grove]

i bet thats one of the map for tank superiority @south tinsel

[foggy gazelle]

what if the gadget i love it attached to some irritating character

[formal ore]

Objective: find water

[arctic grove]

i hope theres tank and aircraft superiority

[soft kayak]

you can

[tired cargo]

Same

[random zodiac]

The only thing I dislike is that they turned Battlefield into hero shooter.

[south tinsel]

You have 20 minutes to find water or you die

[worn whale]

Thiccer face cover, all black, and that's 25$ well spent on a game

[lone meadow]

Im canadian so it’s cool but he isn’t even sporting Canadian gear so it’s pointless

[arctic grove]

its 2021
all games are a hero shooter now

[eternal storm]

Yes but you’re still a dude from Canada or South Africa etc

[worn whale]

oh forgot the punisher skull too

[soft kayak]

so would you be fine with boris were he called "the sentry" or something

[hallow holly]

that bike tho

[lone meadow]

That looks like a ghost knock off from cod lol

[soft kayak]

We should be able to just pick a camo and helmet type
This wouldnt change that tho

[foggy gazelle]

no i don’t want a hero system at all. have you ever played battlefield 4? i want that but with guns for all classes

[blissful pond]

If this game releases a BR it better be free...

[vital sluice]

yea

[arctic grove]

I'm still waiting for bf6

[calm sorrel]

HOUR GLASS 100%

[eternal storm]

Yeah I’m selfish, if there was a character from my country I’d be like “why are you all@complaining shut up and be Boris” hahah

[arctic grove]

soo weird
canadian soliders using ak12
russian using American weapons
little bird shooting its own teammates
wtf is happening

[soft kayak]

then why bring up that theyre named?

[lyric heart]

What happened to battlefield 2041

[calm sorrel]

thats the sandy city one right?

[arctic grove]

there is no more america vs russia

[flint jay]

Why does a character need to have your gender, your look, your hair, your skin colour, your belief like come on mate that is not you, it's a random ass virtual avatar

[arctic grove]

its side 1 vs side 2

[foggy gazelle]

i’m pretty sure it’s confirmed to not but i could be wrong

[vital sluice]

It's the apocalypse

[trim surge]

i hope its possible besides making an own character model of yourself

[lone meadow]

It’s proxy wars

[blissful pond]

yes

[calm sorrel]

ok yeah

[eternal storm]

They’re former people@of those countries. More akin to contractors

[arctic grove]

Facts

[blissful pond]

I agree it is cool

[calm sorrel]

idk why but i love hourglass

[foggy gazelle]

dude i don’t think you’re understanding what i’m saying. i don’t want a hero system. end of the line

[tulip dove]

does anyone know what time is the gameplay trailer sunday?

[calm sorrel]

i like how its in a sandstorm

[blissful pond]

all the maps are cool imo

[south tinsel]

It's only natural for people to want to project themselves and their unique traits onto their character in a video game

[tulip dove]

EST plz

[arctic grove]

Like you said avatar lol

[calm sorrel]

yeah true

[lone meadow]

Exactly they don’t bear Allegiance to their birth country

[arctic grove]

Trailer music stuck in my head

[soft kayak]

• world is ending
• countries collapse
• soldiers go to work for the US or Russia

[arctic grove]

i dont think its a proxy war

Just me tho

yeah i know that fallen nation rumor

i see what you mean

[south tinsel]

Nothing is more important than a functional game with a great netcode. I don't care about outfits at the start of a release

[flint jay]

Well perhaps others are different

[random zodiac]

Just sell skins and let all classes take any guns/gadgets?

[calm sorrel]

ill dm it to you

[lone meadow]

True

[flint jay]

But fair point

[south tinsel]

A very important thing for everyone to accept 🙂

[foggy gazelle]

i don’t see how it adds to sandbox. what do you mean by this?

[formal ore]

user engagement is notably higher when players are able to customize their characters as it imparts a sense of ownership and control which motivates players to keep coming back.

[soft kayak]

would be worse IMO. Would remove the last bit of readability in this game

[arctic grove]

its 2021
accept all games are a hero shooter

[red wadi]

How do you get the 10hr release on oct 15?

[calm sorrel]

gold/ultimate edition

[foggy gazelle]

immersion. i totally agree

[calm sorrel]

iirc

[agile compass]

Not like it matters that much anyway since they gave everyone access to all guns.

Didnt matter that much to me in BF4, every dot in the distance is gonna die.

[arctic grove]

I feel like no one really knows what the class system is in this game, I keep hearing different things from different people. I just want to play as a faceless soldier.

[eternal storm]

Exactly, if I could have my friend scan his face on to his character and shoot him in it I’d play this game for ten years lol

[arctic grove]

Finally they added Canada to a bf game

[warped wren]

I just want a US Army guy who looks like a normal infantryman.

[lone meadow]

Yea I absolutely hate that they did that

[arctic grove]

Time to fight for my country

[soft kayak]

they felt that class choice was more about weapons than gadgets, so they split them so gadgets would be their own, separate choice

[calm sorrel]

same!

[zenith tendon]

i kinda didn’t like the futuristic look for the tanks hope there’s gonna be older ones there too

Like 4-3

[soft kayak]

is this from a study?

[arctic grove]

Everything in battlefield 2042 is what I expected

[formal ore]

I'm paraphrasing from https://cyberpsychology.eu/article/view/4340/3412

It's long so, thought it better to summarize it 😄

[arctic grove]

Btw the level caps are back to 155?

[foggy gazelle]

huh. i don’t see that at all lol. gadgets should be class based and weapons free. you don’t need characters attached for that to work

[lone meadow]

I mean I play engineer for the repair torch and the rpg so idk what the fuck they smokin

[agile compass]

Im personally ok with it, as the two gear items would still exist to let them perform a role.

[void storm]

do we know release date

[foggy gazelle]

funny how this is basically just the robot arm lady again lol

october 22

[obsidian ginkgo]

The acces to all gun for any class just scream : MAX DAMAGE insert gun name SETUP , BROKEN GUN YouTube video

[lime wharf]

No, people just can’t read

[void storm]

OMG

[soft kayak]

¯_(ツ)_/¯
Yeah im not quite sure I buy that either. Though it rings more true for bf1 or v

[ivory canopy]

Oh my God! I called it!

[kind laurel]

they could keep the "specialists" but just have it like a kit that you can put on your own, unnamed soldier.

[lone meadow]

I use the guns that are provided, it makes people more skilled in that class of weapons

[stiff yacht]

https://youtu.be/NioDSSIMImM

[foggy gazelle]

100%

[void storm]

bro this looks like its gonna be good im getting B4 vibez

[obsidian ginkgo]

Virus

[restive lodge]

So how divergent will specialists be from the normal class system; I'd hate it if it turned into R6 Siege where they just keep selling more and more bizarre heros

[silk moss]

I’m new to battlefield but I plan on getting battlefield 2042. I played Star Wars battlefront 2 and was in a clan. Are there clans for battlefield?

[soft kayak]

yeah. Would be better.

[flint jay]

You should have sent them that study

[acoustic grail]

TACTICAL PENGUINS

[foggy gazelle]

i’m okay with the specialist system just i want my own character

[void storm]

ikr

[eternal storm]

I stopped playing siege after the second year cos it turned into superheroes

[stiff yacht]

No it’s the jet scene in the trailer synced to the bf4 theme

[arctic grove]

Yea its called platoons

[lone meadow]

Siege is running outa idea’s I wonder what’s next lol

[placid heart]

Casuals: Is this the map where the Tornado happens?
Everyone else: Yes, but you have to keep running up and down the street, with your knife out and your pants down to trigger it.

[kind laurel]

just remove the "lore" on the characters and make them outfits or summ idk

[arctic grove]

China breaks out WW3 > Russia China And America fight each other > Russia fast tracks their projects during the war > US Infiltrates russia during final stand > US fail to put a stop to the projects > Russia becomes far more powerful > Russia invades and break other countries > Soldiers from fallen nations are either to fight with or against Russia > Battlefield 2042 > Battlefield 2142

[foggy gazelle]

yea basically

[flint jay]

#739938247089848351

[arctic grove]

Been playing since dust like and lemme tell ya... it's really boring nowadays

[eternal storm]

I wanted siege to make a sequel@with ability to knockout power and clear buildings in the dark etc

[arctic grove]

i hope bf 2042 is set on the same universe as bf4 and is a continuation of events after Final stand

[warped pilot]

you forgot the PAC formation

[eternal storm]

Yep

[lone meadow]

That’d be something I’d pay for

[runic vale]

Everyone ignoring the fact that the jet just disappeared in the reveal trailer? Minor levolution for shit. This thing should have smashed through everyone there

[lone meadow]

I hope so too

[restive lodge]

So are there just no factions with the new specialists? I thought this was supposed to be a prequel to 2142

[arctic grove]

Gangs

Isn’t that a feature

?

[lone meadow]

What jet

[arctic grove]

Battlepacks returning?

[civic egret]

So will this game have a free2play mode? If not, how tf is it supposed to compete with others

[soft kayak]

yep. any specialist for any faction

[eternal storm]

But I gta be honest. Siege wasn’t selling well until they catered to the kids and make@tons of super abilities

[runic vale]

Minute 3 30 or so

[formal ore]

yeah, they're going with the 'mercenary' theme it seems

[soft kayak]

"no pats" are a cool and bleak concept that I dont expect dice to explore at all

[random zodiac]

Why not let people create their own unique heroes/characters?

[eternal storm]

Mercenary has such a nasty connotation to it these days

[restive lodge]

@formal ore I wonder why they didn't just go with unnamed mercenaries; I guess Apex Legends and Siege have had a big influence

[lone meadow]

Ah yea I see it now lol

[formal ore]

"no pats" just makes me think of animals that are annoyed if you try to touch them

[soft kayak]

my guess is that a character is easier to market

[eternal storm]

Haha

[lone meadow]

Lmao

[restive lodge]

@random zodiac Easier to make money by selling new "heros"

[arctic grove]

I thought it was battlefield 6

Message #battlefield-2042

[soft kayak]

I thought the new ones would be free?

[stiff pollen]

There are factions, it’s just that they get hired by any side

[flint jay]

They might actually sell specialists, isn't that why 4 are included in the year 1 pass??

[formal ore]

Yeah, I'm guessing it's just them following trends which I think is a pissweak move from their upper management rather than from the dev team.

[kind laurel]

This debate of named characters is pretty much the only complaint i have been seeing, so I almost have faith that Dice will see this and make a change.

[stiff pollen]

So yiu have Canadians fighting for the Russians and Russians fighting for the US

[lone meadow]

I think they are if you unlock them in the battlepass I’m just guessing tho

[runic vale]

I guess they backed off because of last gen consoles...

[arctic grove]

Who knows if dice will make money off this

[lone meadow]

Yea

[formal ore]

yeah I hope so, it's the only complaint I've seen so far as well

[soft kayak]

the ability to put any weapon with any gadget is more concerning IMO

[flint jay]

It's basically battlefield but instead of classes it's a R6 character pick screen

[foggy gazelle]

like just keep the specialist system but allow me to use my own character in place of boris and canadian and ‘introvert sniper guy’

[arctic grove]

I'm surprised no one is talking about the plus system.

[kind laurel]

the free battle pass will have that gameplay stuff, and the paid will have the fun stuff

[restive lodge]

@kind laurel I don't like seeing the same "hero" running around a battlefield that's supposed to be a bunch of randos; I also like having my own soldier

[red wadi]

No team death match??

[flint jay]

I bet the same way you have to earn characters in r6, your gonna have to either earn or buy specialists

[lone meadow]

I like it tbh

[hot epoch]

what

[soft kayak]

id bet theres a tdm

[arctic grove]

whats the plus system

[foggy gazelle]

what was that again?

[kind laurel]

yeah that's my exact thoughts

[hot epoch]

better

[steady spire]

so this battlefield won't have single player campaign?

[formal ore]

I'm curious how that'll play out, don't want it to diminish actually picking a weapon and sticking with a particular loadout.

[placid pike]

The hud seems to be in the goggles, interesting.

[soft kayak]

recustomize your weapon in the middle of a battle

[foggy gazelle]

correct

[steady spire]

damn

[arctic grove]

uhh

[formal ore]

Crysis style hot swapping weapon mods

[restive lodge]

@kind laurel It kind of works in Apex/Siege because you can only have one of each

[arctic grove]

Its kinda like crisis, change attachments on the fly

[flint jay]

The plus system is an amazing addition

[arctic grove]

In my honest opinion I think this might flop but wait till gameplay

[lone meadow]

I hate having thermals and then having the enemy team chuck 1500 flares and then I can’t see shit

[foggy gazelle]

i mean if you have to do it while near an ammo box then i wouldn’t care

[steady elm]

Needs 10-15 different characters with no names that are mostly American, and vice versa for Russians 10-15 characters with no names and mostly being Russian

[arctic grove]

so who here is going to attach a drum magazine and a laser sight to their vector??

[random zodiac]

So if hero is OP and meta we will see 124 same heroes on map?

[kindred mason]

Oh wow that’s a great detail

[arctic grove]

yea that seems fair

suppressor + laser sight vector😍 😍

[eternal storm]

It won’t flop financially. But it could flop@review wise

[kind laurel]

and the whole game is built around the 5 on 5 gameplay that demand teamwork

[arctic grove]

So, to be clear, are Specialists some kind of reinforcements ala BF1/BFV or just the base characters everyone has?

[steady elm]

@arctic grove Sig Sauer lmg 68 all the way

[soft kayak]

that are mostly American/Russian
Nah I like that theyre from around the world

[flint jay]

I think it's one in each squad of each character

[formal ore]

yeah that would work, better than having to die to change your kit so it's more appropriate for your next objective

[kind laurel]

base characters

[arctic grove]

I hear different things from different people, im not sure

[arctic grove]

It's kinda both if it gets bad reviews but we will see

[arctic grove]

I hope its like that

i wamt to know what happened to china

[restive lodge]

@arctic grove It looks like it's completely replacing the class system; I'm fine with any gun for any class, but I don't want heros

[lone meadow]

They need player customization with the ability to change the country patches

[foggy gazelle]

base characters. they’re attached to the gadgets

[soft kayak]

bf4 happened to china

[steady elm]

@soft kayak that's stupid, Americans should fight for Americans, it's not some formula 1 team

[flint jay]

Specialists are completely replacing classes

[random zodiac]

So, wait, I can't have 4 snipers on my squad or 4 assault? that's just stupid.

[upper sage]

LOL " Fires a Syringe Pistol to provide healing. If fired at an enemy, the syringe will do damage " Syringe pistol......... lmfao https://www.ea.com/games/battlefield/battlefield-2042/game-overview/specialists/maria-falck

[kind laurel]

"civil war" apparently

[eternal storm]

Err you’re aware there is a thing called NATO

[soft kayak]

nah

[arctic grove]

rumor or confirmed?:@kind laurel

[lone meadow]

Look at the website

[flint jay]

Same way R6 adds new characters they might be doing the same thing, over years they will add characters

[restive lodge]

@kind laurel can they even include a china faction in battlefield anymore; didn't bf4 get banned because china was a antagonist faction

[lone meadow]

It gives the story

[arctic grove]

If they are base characters, oof, it's definitely not what I want in Battlefield

what website

[kind laurel]

I am pretty sure confirmed but I could be wrong

[steady elm]

@eternal storm err, you're aware that the side is USA not Nato right?

[primal plinth]

I prefer a NATO force than just the US. US has had enough time in the limelight

[eternal storm]

No it isn’t- they’re called nopats

[kind laurel]

probably not

[arctic grove]

yea, hopefully the game play trailer specifies everything.

[soft kayak]

and youre aware this is a 20 year dystopian future that DICE designed right?

[lone meadow]

True they always steal the spotlight

[restive lodge]

@primal plinth I wonder if it'll be the 2142 facitons

[arctic grove]

yeah nut it makes sense

us is the most famous and the most powerful countru

[primal plinth]

They were in every DLC for BF4

[flint jay]

They're actually copying R6 I bet you the character choosing screen will be similar in a grid type fashion and over-time increase in amount of specialists

[lone meadow]

No it’s not

[arctic grove]

yes it si

[steady elm]

@primal plinth then they should rename it to Nato, not USA

[warped wren]

They’re like Call of Duty operators. They are your character. Different ones have different gadgets but other than that they’re just cosmetically different. Think of the elite soldiers in BFV.

[random zodiac]

How long do you think we will have to wait for rainbow/bright neon colored guns?

[south tinsel]

China 💀

[lone meadow]

China surpasses them in military might

[raven cloud]

Is the dlc going to be free map wise?

[flint jay]

Hopefully not long because I want one

[lone meadow]

Hopefully never

[primal plinth]

Yes, it seems like it

[kind laurel]

most likley

[soft kayak]

why?

[eternal storm]

Let’s not get political. You’re all going to play as Maria so shut up and enjoy it lollll

[polar cradle]

what do you think will happen if the rocket manages to launch

[arctic grove]

Thats what I was guessing, just heard some people saying that they were an addition, rather than just replacing classes.

[arctic grove]

Nato proxy like Japan and Israel etc and BRICS Iran and china

[flint jay]

Nobody is getting political

lmao

[primal plinth]

Nah, she’s a medic. Hardly anyone in Battlefield knows how to play as a medic

[steady elm]

@soft kayak because if it's mutli national then it should be nato, not just Go team USA hyping

[restive lodge]

@arctic grove It'd be ok if they were just an addition as opposed to just a flat out replacement

[arctic grove]

Let's just hope different countries get a little spotlight, like Germany or France military

[obtuse gust]

U S A U S A U S A

[lone meadow]

Lmao true

[south tinsel]

it's not multinational

[soft kayak]

this is a future conflict and its not limited to nato members

[twin coral]

I can't stop laughing, I love it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r_GI_RVQtM0

[eternal storm]

Im@pleasantly surprised in bf5 I get revived all the time@to be fair lol

[south tinsel]

you are playing as stateless anarchist mercenaries

[obtuse gust]

not true at all

[arctic grove]

She could be elite

[arctic grove]

yea, just want to play as a faceless merc or soldier

[echo gust]

Anyone else feel super nostalgic with this new trailer?

[primal plinth]

It’s a joke :/

[eternal storm]

Agree!

[languid valve]

WHY IS THERE NO MEME CHANNELLL

[soft kayak]

@steady elm dead ass trying to say DICE's fictional future is unauthentic

[primal plinth]

Pain

[obtuse gust]

I just want to see who is anti vehicle """"specialist""""

[languid valve]

I HAVE A BATTLEFIELD MEMEE

[south tinsel]

isn't it BORIS

[primal plinth]

I heard her name is Candice

[soft kayak]

engineers will probably all have access to an AV weapon as their second gagdet

[obtuse gust]

even for a childreans book is horrible friend

[flint jay]

Who's candice

[primal plinth]

I don’t know. She sounds pretty cool

[obtuse gust]

the turret guy? fuck me

[eternal storm]

Maria’s wife lol

[flint jay]

You want me to fuck you?

No sorry

[lone meadow]

Lmao

[soft kayak]

@obtuse gust I think youre overreaction to what is essentially a subclass system

[primal plinth]

Anyways...if there’s no mortar in this game I won’t buy it

[obtuse gust]

small dick energy ^

[primal plinth]

I need to spam mortars, I have to

[fierce torrent]

thats so good

[flint jay]

Finally someone said it

[stiff pollen]

If I can’t spam mortars across the map I’m not buying it

[obtuse gust]

true man would ask for address

[warped wren]

Exactly. People are complaining over nothing.

[steady elm]

@soft kayak don't put words in my mouth. I'm just saying if people from different countries somehow represent America then it would be better to name it Nato, Allied forces, Or at least US coalition

[primal plinth]

Indirect fire annoys the hell out of enemies and is extremely easy for me. Perfect trade

[warped wren]

No because they’re American soldiers

[south tinsel]

you just don't understand g*mers...

[eternal storm]

Or the judean people’s front

[soft kayak]

if people from different countries somehow represent America
The countries theyre from do not exist any more

[warped wren]

They’re fighting for America

[stiff pollen]

I think the issue isn’t that there’s a subclass system. The issue is people didn’t know it was one in the first place, the website didn’t clearly state that it was an extension of the base class system.

[obtuse gust]

well I will not lie, I still don't get it how is it going to work

[warped wren]

They are essentially draftees into the US Army

[flint jay]

I love sitting back safe and sound whilst people die on the field

[lone meadow]

Mortars can deleted from the game idec

[obtuse gust]

I'm afraid 😭

[flint jay]

Also now more targets to hit

[crimson minnow]

The amount of crazy in the battlefield 2042 trailer is insane

[twin coral]

https://tenor.com/view/spit-take-laugh-lmao-gif-11804143

[lone meadow]

Just a pussy move

[warped wren]

Or rather they’ve chosen to enlist in the US Army.

[flint jay]

Thats not how war works fella

[prime grove]

no memes in general

[restive lodge]

@crimson minnow To be fair, that's basically how the average BF4 game went

[arctic grove]

yea, I was just told it replaced classes, I have no idea the in the world what is going on with the classes

[eternal storm]

God no.

[warped wren]

Yes

[primal plinth]

Here’s the story. Blah blah blah countries go to shit, leaving a ton of people homeless. The us and Russia both hire these “No-Pats” to fight for them in return for a home. There you go, jist of the story

[obtuse gust]

HURRAH

[stiff pollen]

You know Archetypes in BFV? It’s that but with named characters.

[steady elm]

Mortar players are given the well loved term Mortards for a generous reason

[wide hull]

https://imgur.com/JiaHBXU

[eternal storm]

Fuck the story there doesn’t even need to be one we just want to fuck shit up

[obtuse gust]

yeah according to the lore they are fighting for money and land

[primal plinth]

We have our own nicknames?! Awesome!!!

[obtuse gust]

not for merica ou russia

[lone meadow]

Exactly

[warped wren]

Embrace the US Army. Or the Russian Army. Embrace it.

[arctic grove]

ill have to google archetypes

[meager anvil]

Do we know if there will be boats like in bf4?

[wide hull]

https://twitter.com/_Tom_Henderson_/status/1402705559061774349

[prime grove]

the map in antarctica is the sickest one imo

[eternal storm]

Fuck off I’ll be happy to live with the penguins lol

[lone meadow]

Lmao

[flint jay]

Apparently Tom said there will be customisation for each character

Dang

[primal plinth]

I like the cargo container or desert one

[obtuse gust]

ok, but you can't change their face or voice right?

[warped wren]

When Ireland is covered in ocean you’ll be glad we took you in

[steady elm]

@primal plinth yes, Mortards are the next evolutionary step from campers, they use boom pipes to splat players from safety

[flint jay]

This dude wrong bout everything almost so far and he dare to predict more

[soft kayak]

ok. so here is how it works.
-There are 10 specialists.
-There are 4 types: Assault, Support, Engineer, and Recon.

• weapons and grenades are available to any specialist
• secondary gadgets are split up by type
• each specialist has one unique gadget and perk. For example, the sentry gun or grapple hook.
• uniforms will be available to each specialist, and they were varied enough that some thought they were normal soldiers.
• face and voice are locked

Effectively its a subclass system

[obtuse gust]

adios monika 😩

[eternal storm]

Fight for the penguins. Maria’s skill is penguin whispering

[night vessel]

https://youtu.be/ZygMsJ4wXCI?t=91 reminds me of this

[languid valve]

BATTLEFIELD 2042 SIMPING TIME

[arctic grove]

if it is like that im fine with it, just want to be faceless soldier yada yada

[eternal storm]

We bred like rabbits and populated your country sir lol

[primal plinth]

Epic. It’s like camping but more annoying for the enemy because they can’t see you. Indirect fire is so based

[arctic grove]

June 13 where are you?

[restive lodge]

Ok that sounds better; still wish they were unnamed but at least it shouldn't be too much like the siege system

[west osprey]

Battlefield trailer trending no1 here

[primal plinth]

Same

[obtuse gust]

there are 4 types of 10 guys right? so can those of the same class use each other gadget?

that is all I want to know

[flint jay]

Imagine complaining like a bitch about mortars. THIS IS AN ART!! The art of the sacred mortar shell

[eternal storm]

Ok I’m off fellas. I’ll see all you Maria’s in October lol

[lone meadow]

1:40-2:10 is the best part lol

[steady elm]

So basically medics will be All Time Low? "I'm coming with you, Dear Maria count me in"

[restive lodge]

@obtuse gust It seems that there are class gadgets then each specialists has a unique set of gadgets

[arctic grove]

4 types of 10 guys?

[obtuse gust]

ok thank you

[soft kayak]

each class has one exclusive gadget and a gadget for theyre type. So for example: Boris has a sentry gun, and can pick 1 common engineer gadget

[west osprey]

U can control in vehicles from any point of the map, thank God that exists I woulda shoot myself if I had to run in such a big map lmao

Bring in

[obtuse gust]

I still don't like it very much, but better than nothing

[restive lodge]

@arctic grove 4 classes then each class has subclasses called specialists

[arctic grove]

Is there going to be some Self Propelled Artillery? Or just tanks and APC? I really want mortars, at least as reinforcements, I'm an artillery obsessed dude

[winter dawn]

I pre order it Battlefield 2024

[primal plinth]

Same

[steady elm]

@west osprey Somebody order a warthog?

[obtuse gust]

they are probably fallowing cods steps

[primal plinth]

I wear the Mortard badge proudly

[west osprey]

I don't wanna preorder rn wanna offically know if campaign is in the game

[prime grove]

that's why they hired cod devs

[primal plinth]

It is not

[arctic grove]

Not bad

[restive lodge]

@obtuse gust Cod got rid of specialists in MW

[lone meadow]

The arty would be cool have like a M109 palidan or whatever they are called

[glass swan]

https://youtu.be/FleHL0es9Xs smood

[west osprey]

If there charging full price for only multiplayer, than it's a bit disappointing to say the least

[arctic grove]

There 10 specialist ad launch

[west osprey]

Game costs 89.99

Here

[soft kayak]

I want to play it before deciding. If the customization is varied enough, it may feel more like the different ethnicities in 1 or V than a hero shooter.
Like how the British medic was locked to an indian character

[stiff moth]

When is the open beta?

[lone meadow]

$150 for ultimate

[primal plinth]

Base game is 70 moners here in the states

[glass swan]

Worth it

[steady elm]

Anyone think they'll have Sig Sauer's NGSW? Their 11lb LMG shooting 6.8 ammo

[west osprey]

Ye I wanted to get ultimate but idk it's really expensive

[sick harness]

Guys, what's the difference between ultimate and the gold versions of Battlefield 2024?

[obtuse gust]

yeah, going from V to this seems strange to me, let's hope they do a good job

[primal plinth]

Not enough

[stiff moth]

When is the open beta?

[arctic grove]

Here is 69.99 standard edition, 99.99 deluxe

[hollow quarry]

No date

[flint jay]

You get like a soundtrack

[arctic grove]

Can't remember but you could check on Origin

[stiff moth]

Oh ok

[lone meadow]

I said fuck it, did the same for MW and CW, gotta keep tradition up

[soft kayak]

my guess is that named characters are more marketable than faceless gadgets

[primal plinth]

So an extra 50 for a Spotify playlist?

[raw vale]

Operations will be the campaign

[west osprey]

Ultimate isn't worth it imo

[raw vale]

It will be told

[west osprey]

Go for gold

[primal plinth]

Heavily agree

[hollow quarry]

Ultimate comes with some sexy ass skins

[west osprey]

Or standard

[flint jay]

Helll yeah dawg for the dumbasses out there so they can make money off em

[soft kayak]

they have yet to confirm operations interestingly

[raw vale]

A narrative throughout the multiplayer

[arctic grove]

There's going to be Grand Operations?

[sick harness]

So should I pre order the gold version?

[glass swan]

No

[steady elm]

M26 mass as a gadget please, love me a bolt action shottie

[pallid wolf]

YOOOO

[hollow quarry]

What

[pallid wolf]

hi

[primal plinth]

EA knows their audience is full of retarbs

[knotty grail]

Yeah why is Ultimate 20 more than gold??

[obtuse gust]

100%, and you can sell it for a higher price, even if he does not use the gadget, like in a BR for example

[west osprey]

That's not proper campaign tho

[glass swan]

What kinda dumb question is that

[primal plinth]

To profit off dumbasses

[restive lodge]

@sick harness I normally just wait till day 1/2 to buy new games; no point in pre ordering when everything is digital

[fresh yacht]

Question Will there be an alpha for us veterans?

[flint jay]

Wait till june 13th to see gameplay then decide

[raw vale]

I'm happy there is no battle royale (yet)

[west osprey]

I'll obv get the game it's battlefield

[arctic grove]

Agree, but Grand Operations were cool in BF1

[obtuse gust]

will there be a vehicle "class" like in bf1?

[west osprey]

But the only negative thing about the game is no campaign

[hollow quarry]

Because it comes with legendary skins...

[west osprey]

As of now

[primal plinth]

But cringe in BFV

[obtuse gust]

would like to see them again

[raw vale]

They can make whatever semi-battle royale game mode they want but I really dont want a full sized battle royale

[steady elm]

@fresh yacht yes, veterans will have early access as a form of survey

[fresh yacht]

Having no campaign is a + for me

[raw vale]

Hourglass is already bigger than Halvøy

[west osprey]

There's such a good story and context to the game and dice didn't even make a campaign like bruh

[obtuse gust]

with gigantic maps, it would be really cool to have a multiple days fight

[restive lodge]

@primal plinth How were they done in BF5, I didn't get that one because I saw no point in buying a WW2 shooter right after a WW1 shooter

[primal plinth]

I’m disappointed in there only being 3 modes. What about Rush, Fronlines, Operations???

[west osprey]

I read through the timeline and the shit is interesting af

[sick harness]

Fair, thank you

[west osprey]

Really hope they bring campaign with live service at least

[obtuse gust]

are you kidding?

[lone meadow]

Prolly added later

[fresh yacht]

But not all veterans will get one right?

[vital sluice]

My only question is it based on the BF3/BF4 timeline

[obtuse gust]

ww2 is completely different than ww1

[primal plinth]

It was similar, but more confusing. It just didn’t have the same feel and was not given any attention at all

[obtuse gust]

not only the game

[lone meadow]

No one really knows

[raw vale]

Yea kinda disappointing that we dont have a single player campaign. But DICE made a sacrifice of not doing so and I think it will be great

[flint jay]

yeah

[steady elm]

Imagine 3 hour fights in the giant maps that have ai bots fill in the blanks when people leave

[hollow quarry]

Only selected few and EA Game Changers

[obtuse gust]

yeah I felt it was worst than 1

[vital sluice]

like planetside 2

[arctic grove]

when is the beta?

[primal plinth]

Everyone did lol

[raw vale]

I'm excited to play Kaleidoscope

[atomic badge]

watching the trailer knowing damn well i can't afford bf2042

[hollow quarry]

No date

[radiant prism]

Yeah the maps look great so far

[vital sluice]

I'm excited to play the damn game

[primal plinth]

Same, can’t wait to drop vehicles on camping snipers

[stiff pollen]

No singleplayer campaign in the hopes that there’s a free to play mode to keep this game alive for years? Good trade

[restive lodge]

@obtuse gust I know irl wise, they're different wars but as far as a battlefield game, they were going to be pretty similar since BF1 had a bunch of automatic and semi auto guns available

[winter dawn]

No one like Battlefield v we only like and love Battlefield 2024

[arctic grove]

and 4

[fresh yacht]

I remeber when ppl asked "Where is the m1grand" in bf1 😂

[stiff pollen]

Where is it

[knotty grail]

Have pc requirements been released yet?

[lost spoke]

[steady elm]

Who wants to bet that you'll get 100+ fps with an rtx 2060 and that it's surprisingly well optimized

[arctic grove]

bf1 sucks

[stiff pollen]

Dices silence on not having the garand in BF1 is shocking

[fresh yacht]

xD

[sick harness]

Ratio.

[arctic grove]

Where is the M1 Garand in BF2042?

[rotund roost]

well i get 270fps with a 2060 on bfv so it shouldn't be hard

[radiant prism]

Most of the criticism I've seen so far is around the fact that the reveal didn't have any gameplay

[stable mango]

its the Z42 Goard

[lost spoke]

gameplay trailer is coming soon right?

[steady elm]

@rotund roost I'm talking ultra settings

[stiff pollen]

Sunday

[lone meadow]

No it’s all about the heroes system lol

[radiant prism]

Which is pretty stupid considering all reveal trailers haven't featured any gameplay

[echo gust]

13th

[restive lodge]

@radiant prism That comes later; we were complaining about the specialists system until someone said it was a subclass system

[lone meadow]

We get the gameplay on Sunday

[rotund roost]

mp fps in ultra 😬

[lost spoke]

thx

[radiant prism]

Yeah the specialists to me just seem like renamed classes

[stiff pollen]

Dice should’ve clarified more about the specialist system, definitely ruined reveal day for some

[fresh yacht]

Fun fact: We will get an model 10 shotgun in 2042 With an acog and a hvy barrel

[radiant prism]

I don't think its gonna be much of an issue

But we'll see

[atomic badge]

yeah they just reveal the game and not the gameplay

[lone meadow]

Haha yea

[primal plinth]

I’m gonna be honest, I really don’t care for the specialists. I’m fine with them

[stiff pollen]

The page could’ve been more obvious that “hey the base classes aren’t being replaced,

[near sequoia]

Battlefield is top of the gaming hashtag on yt

[radiant prism]

Yep, the base classes are still effectively there

[lost spoke]

You guys think ultimate edition is worth or just pre order standard?

[solemn latch]

is it too late for bad company 3

[lone meadow]

Prolly lol

[restive lodge]

@radiant prism https://twitter.com/_Tom_Henderson_/status/1402705559061774349
Evidently it's an extension of classes; so each class will have additional specialists to choose from.
So you'll go engineer, then have multiple engineer types

[stiff pollen]

Lol no it isn’t dream is number 1

[obtuse gust]

I was hopping to see a match

[boreal knoll]

Battlefield 2042 is a prequel to 2142

[stiff pollen]

Dream said something racist on Twitter is trending. Again

[fresh yacht]

Its never too late

[thin rain]

I want to be a medic and have an RPG

[knotty grail]

Gold is best for price imo

[radiant prism]

Yeah theres an info page on the ea website

[flint jay]

Did he get doxed?

[obtuse gust]

ever played dirty bomb?

it is like this

but it is a 8x8

[flint jay]

I saw something about it

[mystic citrus]

is the gold best price?

[flint jay]

Prob

[solemn solstice]

I got gold the ultimate doesn’t look worth it to me

[lone meadow]

Dirty bomb gay

[radiant prism]

Either way I don't think the specialists will change things too much

[boreal knoll]

sad no commander mode is gonna be in 2042

[radiant prism]

Their abilities seem like glorified gadgets

[lost spoke]

I heard ultimate has some soundtrack, not worth?

[radiant prism]

So it shouldn't play any differently than previous games

[restive lodge]

I think it'll be a little more tame than dirty bomb

[knotty grail]

That snow map is supposedly the same size as Vikendi on PUBG which is pretty huge

[obtuse gust]

[lone meadow]

Lol

[stiff pollen]

Dream said something racist and then apologized on his Alt and people are mad he didn’t have the balls to apologize on main. Other than that BF is the top tending on Twitter

[radiant prism]

But we'll see, after all we don't have much in the way of specifics right now

[fresh yacht]

We are gonna get** a german female thats basically doc from rainbow6siege

[obtuse gust]

tame?

[lone meadow]

Cold War gay

[solemn solstice]

not for me, I have Apple Music I don’t see the point

[obtuse gust]

facts ^

[stiff pollen]

If the soundtrack is good but I’m not a fan of the modern games soundtracks

[lone meadow]

Lol what is the soundtrack anyways and how we get it

[lost spoke]

^

[stiff pollen]

BF4 had too much wub wub

[echo gust]

Specialist is just a unique character model and gadget

[vital sluice]

Wait what, a top creator is a piece of shit, Shocker.

[lone meadow]

I bought it ans regret it although I enjoyed killing Adler

[steady elm]

The m1014 shottie with slug rounds and an acog is a dmr, change my mind

[boreal knoll]

I wonder how progression is gonna be with the specialists if we arent tied down based on primary weapons that were for classes

[solemn solstice]

It’s just the soundtrack for the game delivered through steam as mp3s I guess

[solemn latch]

if this isn't not the main menu theme i will be sad

https://open.spotify.com/track/1PSLlFx0wZ8nTKmKdAjvFK?si=557bc368b7894082

[arctic grove]

dun dun dun aged like we did

[stiff pollen]

The best part was it was a Freudian slip, like he accidentally revealed how racist he was

[radiant prism]

Either way 2042's trailer is #1 on YT trending right now

[stiff pollen]

[fresh yacht]

I hope we get alot of customization but not like bf5

[solemn latch]

@radiant prism good joke

[boreal knoll]

now we need 2143 battlefield

[vital sluice]

Was it a tweet or a clip of a video

[stiff pollen]

Tweet

[arctic grove]

when we had the normal dun dun dun our lives were so much easier we were dependant and had nothing to worry about

[vital sluice]

LMAO, thats funny

[fresh yacht]

yes

[solemn latch]

@boreal knoll i don't think many people want that

[solemn solstice]

The only thing that annoys me is origin needs to run in the background for steam it does not support linking like Apex

[radiant prism]

@solemn latch k

[fierce torrent]

Now we wait for battlefield mobile🙏

[solemn latch]

@radiant prism must be a slow day

[stiff pollen]

I’m so glad we got a futuristic battlefield

[arctic grove]

anyone got a link to the sing they used in the reveal trailer? the ....YEAH.....OOOOH!....YEAHHHH!!

[lone meadow]

Ngl I’m kinda pumped for it

[arctic grove]

song*

[solemn latch]

@fierce torrent HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH

[radiant prism]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-kitty-cope-gif-20110606

[stiff pollen]

Been saying for months since they stopped support for BFV that the next battlefield needs to be future

[fresh yacht]

same

[fierce torrent]

I like the time they chose, not too far into the future but near future

[boreal knoll]

So with our teams being mercenaries pretty much that justifies Dice still using the controversial BF5 cosmetic system for soldiers but it seems to work better here I hope

[echo gust]

Im happy with the setting

[stiff pollen]

Hell I was even right about it being a prequel to 2142

[lethal prawn]

I wouldnt say that the situation is going good with the game, the operator system is already getting hate and the trailer was just a buildup to the gameplay trailer, which will show us much more

[radiant prism]

Oh, that explains it...

[echo gust]

Said a long time ago as long as theirs helis im happy

[arctic grove]

battlefield reveal was officially a success. the hype train is full speed ahead. trending on youtube. top seller on steam. we are back baby.

[solemn latch]

https://open.spotify.com/track/1PSLlFx0wZ8nTKmKdAjvFK?si=557bc368b7894082 this has to be in the main menu

@radiant prism fuck off

[steady elm]

Something tells me that on the south Korean map, that you'll only see sniper scope glint on the roof tops as a Maria shoots you in the ass with a magic resurrection pistol

[obtuse gust]

bf4 is not opening

sad

[radiant prism]

nah ❤️

[fresh yacht]

But ur also in the cod server HMMMMMM

[prisma temple]

Whose excited???? @finite craterkeh

[boreal knoll]

Robot Doggo better be a specialist perk

[blazing rivet]

This game trailer really met my expectations

[radiant prism]

For the memes, I'm rarely active there

[fresh yacht]

xd

[stiff pollen]

Robot dog is probably a squad call in

[obtuse gust]

I can already see how helis will dominate that map

[blazing rivet]

I'm fucking happy

[solemn solstice]

best map is prob the Korean one or the Egyptian half grass one is really cool looking

[stiff pollen]

I think squad call ins return, no reason for them to not

[steady elm]

@stiff pollen I wanna rodeo it

[boreal knoll]

Seriously the trailer's atmosphere screamed BF3 with 2142 vibes

[prisma temple]

Is it 64 v 64 on PS4 and Xbox One

[arctic grove]

DID YOU GUYS SEE HIM EJECT, SHOOT THE ROCKET, AND THEN GET BACK IN YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH SNOW TANKS WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[jade basin]

I'm excited @prisma temple

[blazing rivet]

BF3 / 4 yeah

[lethal prawn]

I dont get the specialist system they shouldve kept the classes

[jade basin]

yes

[grizzled garnet]

No

[knotty grail]

How are vehicles going to work? Apparently you call them in??

[obtuse gust]

tanks lmao

[jade basin]

?

[grizzled garnet]

They would fucking blow up

[boreal knoll]

parachuted in

[arctic grove]

im not sure about this strategy of skipping 2037 games

[prisma temple]

What

[radiant prism]

The people calling the trailer over-the-top are people who just don't understand BF

[solemn latch]

@blazing rivet it was okay but if you told be it was a sequel to bo2 i would belive you lol

[solemn solstice]

The trailer screamed Battlefield 2042 vibes

[arctic grove]

WING SUITS

[radiant prism]

From what it looks like to me, specialists are pretty much just renamed classes

[arctic grove]

only bad things can happen if you skip 2037 games

[prisma temple]

What would blow up

[fresh yacht]

They better have Local Comms xDD

[grizzled garnet]

It isn't 64v64 on PS4 and xb1

[lone meadow]

Yea they get air dropped if you call them in

[blazing rivet]

Guys imagine how much activity there will be in terms of explosions, destruction, vehicles flying around or being driven with a 128 player count. It's gonna be so immersive lmao

[lethal prawn]

I think its gonna work somewhat like bf5 where you could call in v1

[arctic grove]

<--preordered 2 copies $109 for me and my buddy. we are ready. whens beta.

[radiant prism]

I'd imagine it won't look too different @lethal prawn

[grizzled garnet]

The PS4/xb1

[stiff pollen]

Oh the trailer is over the top but that’s battlefield

[fresh yacht]

Nope

[prisma temple]

Will my 970 run this game well

[knotty grail]

Oh so a points system?

[grizzled garnet]

What?

[solemn latch]

@arctic grove good luck 🙂

[fresh yacht]

wait

[jade basin]

no
