battlefield-2042

[next onyx]

I'm interested to see what they'll do with that

[rich agate]

So your point is: bf1 good bfV bad

[violet inlet]

sadly no one plays operations

[topaz crest]

bfV "grand" ops were a downgrade tbh

[next onyx]

Yeah Grand ops sucked but i won't deny they're fun as hell

[violet inlet]

i only remember the snow one

[rich agate]

Lmao imagine the chat in a game with 128 players

[arctic grove]

no. my point is the point i made in the argument. i said earlier i dont hate BFV. but i dislike some things about it, and i was explaining one of them.

[next onyx]

The Narvik op

[mighty gyro]

mucho texto

[livid tree]

what do you want us to do now

[next onyx]

My favourite op is the rottterdam op

[rich agate]

It was a well written thesis, but it came across to me that your hate BFV

[violet inlet]

zedds just giving their opinion for a discussion

[undone falcon]

That one was of the better ones

[livid tree]

bfv rotterdam trailer is too good

[slim quiver]

Yeah they both don’t look believable

[arctic grove]

well i wasnt talking to any of you i was talking to @slim quiver

[livid tree]

kiss me

[livid tree]

bro what 💀 my bad

[violet inlet]

but

what if...

aha joking, unless...

[rich agate]

yea what if

[brittle canyon]

[rich agate]

😔

[next onyx]

[livid tree]

I’ll kiss every single one of you all you have to do is ask 🙌

[slim quiver]

If you don’t like it in BFV That’s fine, but if the criticism is not extended into BF1 then I don’t understand the point I suppose

[arctic grove]

BF1 looks mostly authentic to me. i havent seen any egregious sights like i have in BFV, maybe im just missing something but so far battlefield 1 knocks it out of the park for me

[brittle canyon]

[violet inlet]

so you play for immersion

[slim quiver]

This doesn’t look like it makes sense to me tbh

[peak hill]

5 people?

[slim quiver]

Not only because it never existed at all but because all they Did was add an artillery sight

[arctic grove]

that looks like an outrageous WW1 designed sight. that fits with the era. there are guns from WW1 and WW2 that have sights similar to that

[brittle canyon]

such a stuped argument

[topaz crest]

paint a red dot on a piece of glass and boom, red dot sight

[brittle canyon]

[violet inlet]

yea lol guess you could claim that

[slim quiver]

WW2 did the same artillery design

They just make the sights look like artillery sights

[peak hill]

sometimes the best way to shoot is hipfire

[violet inlet]

tbh it looks way worse zoomed in

[slim quiver]

Yeah it does look worse but I needed a pic of the outside optic

[violet inlet]

havingn that gross X across screen legit cant use it

i actually didnt know they were the same sight

[lofty relic]

BF1 was in no way authentic but why does it matter when it was just good fun anyway. It lacked sandbox elements we saw in previous Battlefield but it did its own thing. Not sure how you can objectively claim that BF1 was authentic

[livid tree]

i only use flare guns to kill

[lofty relic]

Fire wasn't even invented back then yet the game had fire everywhere

[brittle canyon]

[arctic grove]

again, those seem somewhat authentic to me. whereas in BFV, you have things like this https://www.reddit.com/r/BattlefieldV/comments/a7e3uq/nydar_left_and_reflex_right_comparison_am_i_the/ there is nothing this egregious in BF1. you keep avoiding this point over and over again and are just trying to prove how BF1 has fake stuff too, ironically being the exact person you are accusing me of being

[distant helm]

I hope they bring that satisfying kill sound from bf1 that shit was soo good

[brittle canyon]

from talking to argument

[livid tree]

I’m going to become a full time Battlefield Debater 🤓

[brittle canyon]

[distant helm]

You cant tell it wasnt good

[violet inlet]

they need the score stack and skill ssound from 1/v

v when they stole it from 1

[slim quiver]

The difference between BF1 and BFV is yeah the holographic sights exist, but I’m BF1 there are more weapons in BF1 that were never ever actually fielded or reached beyond testing. Way past the prototypes that BFV had like the type 2A. It’s incomparable, the prototype guns were the most used weapons in BF1 to the point where it played like a WW2 shooter. If we are talking about the realm of believability, BF1 changed the entire equipment of the war

[violet inlet]

legit made the game so much more fun for me

[lofty relic]

Was it BF1 or BFV where you would catch on fire if your boots touched a flame?

[next onyx]

Bf1

Well both you catch fire

So there's no difference

[lofty relic]

Good times, he said, sarcastically

[slim quiver]

You get injured by fire in both

[next onyx]

Fire is annoying in bf1 because its littered throughout the map and they made it so that background fire set you on fire

[slim quiver]

And actually fire in BF1 is kinda weird because sometimes you can stand in it and nothing happens

The fire actually has like a radius that it doesn’t meet

[distant helm]

Should i open my ps4 it hasnt been cleaned in like 5 years

[lofty relic]

Yeah but I remember touching a tiny patch of fire and my soldier would combust and scream

[slim quiver]

The fire goes past the radius

[ember yarrow]

I actually like that, it really shows that you're safe nowhere

[distant helm]

I dont have warranty i do know what im doing btw

[slim quiver]

Well the wex in BF1 is broken

[arctic grove]

Yes it reduces noise by a lot

[next onyx]

Literally first patch no problem, Second third patch there'll always be a random that gets set on fire in amiens screaming his lungs out.

[violet inlet]

if you got compressed air just blast it

[still vault]

M1 Garand Ping > all other sounds

[slim quiver]

You know how heavy most of those support weapons were and flamethrowers

[distant helm]

[next onyx]

Have you heard what the bar sounds like carbo

That thing just sounds nasty

[arctic grove]

this is like the third time you have missed my entire point and "hurr durr meh fake stuff in BF1 too!!!" I have stated multiple times that i dont care about prototypes or designs that never made it off paper or out of the testing range. What i care about is if it fits with the setting. BFV holographic sights, atleast some examples, have no place being in a WW2 game. Whereas i have never seen anything in BF1 and thought "man, this literally would have never been in WW1."

[slim quiver]

Don’t even get me started on how BF1 had body armor that stopped AT ammunition

[arctic grove]

Look up YouTube videos believe me they help a lot
I personally find the PS4 slim WAYYY easier to clean than the 1st ps4

[next onyx]

Oh the K bullets?

[still vault]

True, but not as good as https://youtu.be/aoBWUs8poYU?t=18

[undone falcon]

Star wars seismic charge thooo

[next onyx]

Cause elites don't usually survive a rocket laucnher

[slim quiver]

But those prototype weapons never fit with the time period. Just like the holographic

[next onyx]

Interesting

That embedded and unbedded

OH

[violet inlet]

probs a bot

[next onyx]

I think i know what you did

[lofty relic]

True, unless you're allowed to count the Thermal Imploder from Battlefront

[arctic grove]

prototypes that were made with the intent of being in the war are equally as bad as holographic sights from the 90's being in a WW2 game?

[slim quiver]

BF1 used red dot sights

[arctic grove]

that makes no sense whatsoever

[slim quiver]

That wouldn’t have been made until 1975

My problem is you say that BFV is at fault but BF1 gets a pass

[still vault]

I stand by my garand sound, but the Star Wars ones were good too.

[silk void]

if u wanna be so anal about realism and shit go play tarkov

[livid tree]

red dot this holographic that when are you going to show me some sugar

[jolly minnow]

[next onyx]

Star wars blasters are the most recognisable

[arctic grove]

Thats not what im saying. Im saying im more accepting of BF1 having fake devices because they fit with the setting

[next onyx]

Pew pew pew

[still vault]

[jolly minnow]

Honestly I think McArthur should’ve bombed the whole Korean Peninsula

[arctic grove]

again, i dont know if you are just missing this point but im not going to rewrite it again. understand it or dont

[still vault]

I might have added that emoji today :p

[slim quiver]

I understand the point

[undone falcon]

so the issue is red dot sights in bfv?

[violet inlet]

the issue is they look out of place to some people

[slim quiver]

But at the same time you’ve used the same points people use when they just don’t like BFV and they know there are historically inaccurate things in BF1 as well but they like BF1 and that game can’t be criticized

[undone falcon]

We are aware that they are not red dot sights right?

[violet inlet]

and even if they did, it dosnt really effect the game for me

[arctic grove]

clearly not, because you keep accusing me of being a BFV hater or something when i am simply stating that BFV does a worse job of feeling authentic than BF1, and you keep coming at me with "HURRR DURR BF1 HAVE PROTOTYPES"

[next onyx]

They're yellow dots!

[undone falcon]

They are reflector sights which apparently were used on a variety of weaponry

[next onyx]

Actually i made a really good golden sight for my dots

[slim quiver]

I never accused you of hating BFV but you keep mocking me for some reason lol

[livid tree]

can you both move to direct messages

[slim quiver]

You talk about things looking out of place but you won’t let me use what I personally think feels out of place?

[violet inlet]

i made all my holographics red and skinny af cause im sweaty af

[livid tree]

I’m in charge now 🙌 who desires me

[livid tree]

no one

[violet inlet]

with those hands maybe

it will defs feel bigger

[lofty relic]

It wasn't even a real holographic sight, it was just a tiny piece of glass with a red sharpie circle drawn on it, if you look closely

[arctic grove]

i dont care if you dont like BF1. i never said you have to dislike BFV or agree with me. I was stating my point that i felt BF1 felt more authentic and you tried to disprove it talking about prototypes thats not even relevant to what i was originally talking about

[slim quiver]

I like BF1

[next onyx]

https://tenor.com/86sX.gif

[arctic grove]

okay good for you

[slim quiver]

Im just saying both aren’t authentic

[brittle canyon]

ddrama mmento

[arctic grove]

holy shit

[livid tree]

zed my brother please turn off your phone

[slim quiver]

And they feel equally unauthentic

[arctic grove]

air superiority is so bad

[arctic grove]

"BF1 FELT more authentic." F E L T

[violet inlet]

air supperiority was a cool idea tho

[arctic grove]

everyone 3rd parties

[slim quiver]

Yeah and I’m saying they feel equally unauthentic

[arctic grove]

all the time

[next onyx]

If air superiority wasn't just lockons it would be much better

[arctic grove]

i was just trying to kill one dude

thats subjective

[violet inlet]

not having to camps spawn to fly try and get a plane spawn

[arctic grove]

and got shot by 5 jets

[slim quiver]

Just like your entire argument, including my own

This whole convo is subjective

[vagrant mauve]

Hello everyone! I'm new here, is everyone as hype for crossplay as I am?!

[slim quiver]

Not objective

[arctic grove]

then why did you come at me talking about prototypes?

[violet inlet]

its not confirmed but i wish all games had crossplay

[slim quiver]

Because I was stating why I felt it was unauthentic

[violet inlet]

yall are never going to agree

[arctic grove]

prototypes made during the era vs holos

[slim quiver]

Yeah I know Lol, I don’t want him to change his mind

[livid tree]

can you stop this petty argument and hug each other

[limber coyote]

optional crossplay*

[slim quiver]

Red dots vs holos

[vagrant mauve]

Well regardless, the hope is there so I'm excited for it haha

[next onyx]

Once 2042 comes out people will have no reason to complain about Realism.

[slim quiver]

Can’t wait

[violet inlet]

i hope its there and i hope its input locked

[next onyx]

Now probably a good idea to move on from this convo and into something a bit more productive.

[still vault]

authentism and realism in computer games are spectrums, for example IMO you should not discuss if something is realistic, only what specific things you find too unrealistic or too realistic.

[slim quiver]

Yeah I’m already done with it

[violet inlet]

cod mw claimed it was, but you would still get m + kb on controller

[next onyx]

Hazard zone sounds like a variant of Dirty bomb from cold war

[edgy eagle]

Sheesh

[arctic grove]

where is there a red dot sight in BF1? because i have never seen one in the game before and searching online gives me no results? i smell cap

[next onyx]

Except higher stakes

[edgy eagle]

Hazard zone is going to be like rainbow six siege or something

[livid tree]

I smell you

[arctic grove]

22 july is soo far

smh

[next onyx]

I said move on.

[slim quiver]

RSC optical

[peak hill]

people been saying it seems similar to tarkov

[violet inlet]

how do you add stakes to a bf game tho

[slim quiver]

But yeah I’m good

[livid tree]

you heard the man he even brought out the period

[violet inlet]

there has to be good rewards for it to matter

[next onyx]

It's full stop, fool!

[violet inlet]

they wouldnt do exclusive skisn would there like loot from division

[edgy eagle]

well no one really knows

[livid tree]

sorry I’m American

[next onyx]

Lmao it's fine.

[limber coyote]

where we moving on to

[lofty relic]

Permanent death I suppose, or high rewards

[next onyx]

YO hold up

[arctic grove]

that isnt a red dot sight dummy that is a lens sight and looks nothing at all like whats in BFV

[livid tree]

Way is my favorite human being to walk the seven seas

[violet inlet]

yes but battleroyale is also high stakes

[next onyx]

Carbo, Imagine Tuktuks were usable on Hazard zone.

[still vault]

I never imagined them not being that

[brittle canyon]

[next onyx]

Well in my defence

It didn't come across my mind

So uh

yeah

[limber coyote]

[slim quiver]

I never knew that was a military vehicle

[next onyx]

Wait that Tuk tuk looks like a god damn ute

[brittle canyon]

tuktuk in indian

[modest kelp]

full squad of boris with turrets on the tuk tuk

[next onyx]

Yeah Zy i never knew tractors were but here we are.

[slim quiver]

I want to drive farming equipment again

[next onyx]

If there were only a way to supercharge them....

[slim quiver]

Also snow mobiles

[still vault]

a ute?

[solar summit]

Does anyone know exactly what weapons there will be?

[violet inlet]

it sounds like a division type mode, but that wouldnt make sense if there was nothing you were taking out with you

[brittle canyon]

motorbike in bf 2042 ?

[violet inlet]

like the name hazard zone sounds like the division lol

[sacred depot]

i want a full on tractor with those big things infront that i forgot the name of

[violet inlet]

i guess division is similar to tarkob

[lofty relic]

They've confirmed that we can put C5 on the drone gadget, the question is if we can grapple the it too

[violet inlet]

get loot and leave

[next onyx]

@still vault

[brittle canyon]

you dont lose everything when you dies

you just lose the stuff you picked up

[still vault]

A ute is a Toyota pickup?

[limber coyote]

third person battlefield when 😳

[violet inlet]

battlefield heroes

[lofty relic]

Whenever you perform a melee takedown

[next onyx]

So far we know 3 of them, I forgot one of them but two of them is the K30 Vector and the MCX (something)

[slim quiver]

Oh a combine

[violet inlet]

star wars battlefront

[brittle canyon]

battleroylefield

[limber coyote]

[sacred depot]

yuh

[next onyx]

The Mcx i think is called the m5a3

[solar summit]

@next onyx ty

[slim quiver]

Mfw run down an enemy team

[sacred depot]

used to love them in farming sim

[grizzled garnet]

Spear was it?

[violet inlet]

they need to add that

[next onyx]

Pickup truck yes....

Uhhhh

[sacred depot]

taking out an entite flank with them

[grizzled garnet]

No that is another gun

[next onyx]

Ahhhh

I thought the MCX Spear was called the M5a3 in part due of licensing

[slim quiver]

Bullet proof windows

[still vault]

Complete sentences Way 😄 complete sentences!

[sacred depot]

forklift would be nice too

[next onyx]

IT'S NOT MY PROBLEM YOU DON'T KNOW THE WORD UTE

[sacred depot]

or just full on civilian cars

[violet inlet]

how long before was bf4s beta before launch

[next onyx]

uhhhh

[violet inlet]

i need more info on this game waiting is killing me lol

[next onyx]

It was october the first to the fifteenth.

But that game was release a month later

[violet inlet]

atleast once i played the beta i wont have to think about it anymore

[next onyx]

In due part of bf5 original time frame to be released (october), The beta was a month before that.

So it's good to assume september.

[lofty relic]

The BF4 beta started on launch day and continued for about a year until they fixed the game

[violet inlet]

a month, that would be a good time

[slim quiver]

I laughed at this

[next onyx]

But wait for July the 22nd for more info.

I mean

[violet inlet]

honestly hated bf4 until the dlc maps came out

[next onyx]

You're not entirely wrong Vic

[oak sparrow]

if u wanna see a proper ute, lookup a hsv

[acoustic wind]

Singaporean, Indian and Korea op could be possible because there are maps set in these countries

[slim quiver]

BF4 had the longest open beta of all time

[violet inlet]

i still dont like the vanilla bf4 maps

[next onyx]

Some of the Vanilla bf4 maps are ok

[lofty relic]

Haha yes

[slim quiver]

I like some of them

I liked BF3 more

[next onyx]

Flood zone and siege are my favourites

[violet inlet]

when i was playing bf4 i wished i was playing bf3 maps

[slim quiver]

BF3 had some of the most iconic modern maps

[dim blade]

I like Locker from BF4

[slim quiver]

Besides like Karkand and Wake island etc

[violet inlet]

bf3 maps are amazing

[next onyx]

It's not like for bf3 i could play them with 64 players

[violet inlet]

bf4 was alot of very open fields

[sacred depot]

flood zone is awful

[slim quiver]

BF4 the open field

[next onyx]

I'm a bit pissed of i missed out on 64 player maps for Bf3 because looking at PC footage the game looks incredible more graphically and... Zoney?

Floodzone good cause you can that dopamine rush of killing the snipers!

"Who's laughing now"

"Certainly not you!"

[still vault]

wasn't it quicker to just say "utility vehicle" ?

[dim blade]

The year was 2011, just before BF3 release when i got a new PC 🙂

I was so happy, BF3 felt amazing

[next onyx]

Yes it means that but you know, Not my problem, Carbo!

[violet inlet]

fuck if we got the apocalypse dlc from 3 in 4

[sacred depot]

And then get 154 rounds of 7.62 chaingun ammunition shot into your abdomen by someone with 800k kills on the scout helo

[modest kelp]

utility vehicle

[next onyx]

Urgh

Uwutiwity vewicle owo

I died typing that out

[violet inlet]

its fucked bf3 was 10y ago

[dim blade]

That game aged well tbh

still looks good

[next onyx]

Dude, Next year marks the Tenth year anniversary for black ops 2.

[violet inlet]

yea it really has

[next onyx]

Being 13, Playing black ops 2 with my mates was the best time in my life.

[violet inlet]

games in 10years really havnt changed much lol

[lofty relic]

As I've said before, I can't think of a bad BF3 map. I did play on PS3 back then however, and I sort of... enjoyed it more than on PC. No AA's existed for instance

On the other hand, I can't really think of any BF4 map that I actually liked

[dim blade]

It's all Frostbite 2

[next onyx]

Actually there were Anti air.

But

[dim blade]

it made it look like that

[next onyx]

It was on Rush Noshahr canals

[lofty relic]

Ahh yes

[violet inlet]

cause there was no bf4 maps that where good

noshar canals holy shit

[edgy eagle]

Sheesh

[violet inlet]

the map

[sacred depot]

bf4 maps weren't bad

but bf3s were better

[dim blade]

you didn't like Siege of Shanghai?

[lofty relic]

I played Conquest only pretty much then got into Squad Rush, and then finally Domination before moving onto PC

[violet inlet]

i dont mind siege before the tower is shot down

[lofty relic]

That's the only map I ended up playing tbh

[violet inlet]

but even when its shut down, its one narrow strip for tanks

[distant briar]

Operation locker is great

[violet inlet]

then snipers on roofs and not much cover in the streets

[still vault]

I am sowwy i caused uwu so much pain. I hope we cawn stiww be fwiends in the futuwe.

[violet inlet]

im not the biggest fan of the meat grinder maps

they are fun tho when you feel like them

just chokepoint chaos

[next onyx]

[crimson wasp]

[still vault]

When you think I zig, that's when I zag.

[violet inlet]

fuck did you all remember when everyone thought the game was going to get a dinosaur mode

[dim blade]

I remember when i played Metro in BF3 on PC for the first time, 32v32

[violet inlet]

then a mech dinosaur mode lmao

[lofty relic]

For pretty much every new BF game yes

[dim blade]

crazy lol

[violet inlet]

imagine if they did lol

[vernal nova]

EXW6-CLDS-5ENP-N8DG-KZFG

if anyone would like a BF4 key <3

its on origin

[dim blade]

what a lad

[lofty relic]

I'll steal the key and sell it on the dark web

[violet inlet]

most people here probs have one but thabks tho

[dim blade]

I downloaded BF1 to hold me off until BF2042

[violet inlet]

the metro in bfv is so different to the metro in bf3

idk why they used the same name

[slim quiver]

All we need in BF2042. It is the time for SPGs

[dim blade]

While 3 and 4 were amazing, 1 just had such quality of live improvements that i'd rather play that

[lofty relic]

Commander mode

[next onyx]

5 furthered upon the Qol

Which makes it really hard to go back to older games

[violet inlet]

no commander mode, give squad leads the abillity to call in support again

[wide panther]

Battlefield’s gotta remove AI bots from multiplayer

[dim blade]

you mean on the upcoming title?

[wide panther]

In 2042

[violet inlet]

bruh the game will be so popular you will never be versing bots

[edgy eagle]

WHy doe

[dim blade]

Why lol

People new to battlefield or even FPS genre can play with bots to get a feel for the game

Not just drop into multiplayer and get destroyed

i see no reason to remove them

[wide panther]

It will ruin the chaos

[modest kelp]

how?

[violet inlet]

you wont notice them for a yeer or two but when the game dies down they will be neccesary for the huge maps

[modest kelp]

it will add to the chaos

[charred bloom]

There’s very few good reasons not to have bots.

[wide panther]

SBMM

[modest kelp]

since the lobbies are always full

[lofty relic]

Not sure what you're talking about Xenon, please elaborate

[charred bloom]

SBMM sucks

[modest kelp]

sbmm in battlefield?

[arctic grove]

All bf 2042 needs hyper sonic missle 😎

[violet inlet]

sbmm with 1208 player servers

[modest kelp]

this isn't cod

[edgy eagle]

there is none, its a team scrambler sheesh

[violet inlet]

128*

[dim blade]

SBMM is not the answer, they are still players who can be better

But a match against AI is a different story

[wide panther]

Whatever it is I have only played battlefield 4

[modest kelp]

this 4head

we should have sbmm instead of bots to fill the lobby

[wide panther]

And hard line

[lofty relic]

Great explanation to back up your point

[wide panther]

4 is on different level man

[violet inlet]

if your worried about bots theres no need to the servers will defs be full

[dim blade]

I want to believe that BF2042 will not die in a year 🙂

[arctic grove]

Actually bf4 has sbmm a bit but in different way ie team balancer

[violet inlet]

bf4 servers are full rn

[wide panther]

4 is better than all FPS games

[modest kelp]

it's not sbmm because sbmm is for match making

[boreal widget]

that's a far stretch

[violet inlet]

thats not skill based match making tho

[modest kelp]

not team balancing

team balancing is separate from match making

[violet inlet]

thats just balanccing the teams

[modest kelp]

^

[wide panther]

Leave the discussion lol we’ll see everything in the near future

[violet inlet]

yea but the future feels so far away

all we can do in the meantime is talk lol

[lofty relic]

You just drop in, saying they need to remove AI from 2042, and then you just move on to saying BF4 is the best game without explaining anything

[wide panther]

Battlefield 4 will be fun even in the year 2042

[sleek flume]

Do you need a good PC to play battlefield 2042?

[lofty relic]

https://tenor.com/view/homer-simpson-homer-disappears-bush-hiding-gif-3377649

[wide panther]

Yes

[violet inlet]

im glad you still like bf4 alot of people love that game still to

[arctic grove]

Well if one guy goes 40 and 0 in a round on my team i went 20 and 0 next game ima have to verse them kinda of like sbmm but kinda similar to it

[dim blade]

Have there been official requierments posted?

[wide panther]

Ikr the game is built different and I still play it every weekend

[lofty relic]

Nope

[dim blade]

Alright well i should be able to run it anyway on 1080p at least

[violet inlet]

it has so much content and weapons you probs could play it forever

[dim blade]

i have the most mid tier PC you can get lmao

[lofty relic]

Definitely

[arctic grove]

Sbmm works in few ways but legit one is ranked

[violet inlet]

i like bfv more but that is my opionion it has wayyyyy less content

[arctic grove]

All balance

[wide panther]

Battlefield mobile is also coming

[arctic grove]

Bfm goty

[boreal widget]

[dim blade]

Only thing im slightly worried is that can i reach 60 fps on the 128 player mode

Cause it feels very demanding on your gpu lool

[violet inlet]

yea but dlss

[dim blade]

im on 1080p tho

[wide panther]

Siege of Shanghai map>Verdansk

[dim blade]

no dlss

[modest kelp]

nah because you're playing with the same people

[violet inlet]

wdym dlss will work fo ru

[arctic grove]

Everything nerfed on last gen

[edgy eagle]

probably more for the cpu

[dim blade]

Intel I5-10600, i think i should be good on that front

[modest kelp]

but pc doesn't have the last gen version

pc plays with next gen

[violet inlet]

yea but pc has scalable settings

[edgy eagle]

Oh sheesh. Nice PP

[wide panther]

Battlefield 4 only lacks on thing-
Bad Maps

[violet inlet]

plus dlss

[plucky plaza]

Scenes with a lot of detail is more CPU bound than GPU bound, that's a common misconception to say it's more GPU bound

[violet inlet]

i dont like the vanilla bf4 maps but the dlc maps are some of the best

[arctic grove]

True but on the other team even it says your daily skill level i got 207 today after game may go up or down

[modest kelp]

still doesn't put you in a game based on your skill

it can't put you against all sweaty players

[arctic grove]

I know that lol

[modest kelp]

then why mention that everything is nerfed on last gen

if last gen doesn't apply to pc

[lofty shore]

sometimes i shit my pants, just to feel weight behind my actions.

[boreal widget]

hardcore

I like you

[arctic grove]

Buddy im saying everything on last gen consoles been optimized at best it got few things on it this is repeat of bf4 from xbox 360 to xbox one

[modest kelp]

buddy the fuck you saying

consoles been optimized at best it got few things on it

[arctic grove]

Theres not 128 players on last gen

[modest kelp]

yes I know

what does that have to do with pc

[arctic grove]

Pc is seperate lol

[hasty sluice]

Nothing will be at the Xbox show case today right?

[modest kelp]

then why mention that last gen has been nerfed when someone was talking about pc?

[hasty sluice]

[arctic grove]

That was almost week ago

[hasty sluice]

Today is an extended stream lol

Starts in 3 hours

Extended showcase

But I guess they won’t show nothing since they didn’t say anything bout it

[arctic grove]

Oh didnt see edit

[sterile tide]

https://youtu.be/L35MCkwUj0I

[dim blade]

hopefully they can shed light on crossplay

[sterile tide]

Fan boys battle here we go

[violet inlet]

thats so weird after there e3 show do you know what is going to be shown

[timid escarp]

Any1 got a clue what does hazard zone gives us about?

[dim blade]

High stakes squad based gamemode

NOT BR

That's all we know

[violet inlet]

so probs a br with a twist lets be real

[acoustic torrent]

Can i play battlefield 2042 in
my ryzen 5 2500u vega 8 laptop??

[timid escarp]

Yes it's not a br,how many player tho?

[modest kelp]

true

[modest kelp]

probably 100+

[dim blade]

no reason for it to be below 128

[timid escarp]

I think bf 2042 its not that that heavy of a game

[violet inlet]

like maybe an objective based battle royale where you dont win by camping n hiding but by actually doing something

[timid escarp]

All modes with 128 people?

I thought 128 only on all out war mode

[violet inlet]

just all out war, maybe more or less in hazard

[timid escarp]

Does bf 2042 got a space map tho?

[violet inlet]

wouldnt be squad based thats whole millitary based

theres a space ship in a map

[timid escarp]

I mean there are rockets but idk if it just an event on the map

[violet inlet]

yea i doubt we will we see space

[timid escarp]

Thought you could ride it then change maps

[modest kelp]

lmao no

[timid escarp]

Hahaha

[violet inlet]

i doubt it cool idea but defs not

[arctic grove]

Thoughts about DICE making BF: Mobile

[hazy vector]

maybe they'll be balsy and add a prominant 2142 reference again

[violet inlet]

they already made free to play battlefields before

i dont bother with mobile games

[timid escarp]

I just cant wait to feel the tornado lmao

[dim blade]

lol console players

the controller will vibrate like crazy prolly

[violet inlet]

it will probs look like cod mobile, that has a 100 player battle royale

[arctic grove]

All I can hope is that it should be still BF and should not appeal CODM Esports Kids.

[jovial jay]

something tell me people are going to complain about the tornado after 1 month

[violet inlet]

i mean tornado maybe fun or annoying we dont know

[timid escarp]

Me 2

[arctic grove]

Reminds me of squad conquest

[violet inlet]

tornade will make it easier for infantry to move without helicopters harrasing them tho

[timid escarp]

Dem pc and laptop players will vibrate out of existence maybe

[arctic grove]

Maybe not

Hey

[next orchid]

Depends, the Tornado will take the infantry with it easily as heck

[violet inlet]

wing gliding into a tornado looks so fun how could you resist

[timid escarp]

That one specialist gonna be controllin the tornado

[modest kelp]

I turn off controller vibration on every fps I play

[next orchid]

Wouldn’t be fun being flung around in it

Wing gliding will be interesting

[violet inlet]

yea i wonder if it kills you or you just sit in it flying around

[next orchid]

Wonder if you can die if it flings you into a building

[modest kelp]

I think you sit in it flying around

[violet inlet]

couldnt imagien it being fun stuck in a tornado

[next orchid]

I hope it doesn’t kill you till it throws you

Unless you get hit by debris inside

[timid escarp]

I dont think the tornado will kill you

[violet inlet]

i think it may just kill you

[timid escarp]

The devs said that it could be your advantages by using the tornado tho

[violet inlet]

will look awkard seeing a bunch of soldiers in the air

[next orchid]

I think it will kill you, just not via picking you up, more from throwing you

[violet inlet]

yea i mean if you get to the center of it

[timid escarp]

It will kill you but not instantly

Prolly when you hit by sumtin

*get hit

[violet inlet]

just players dont have rag dolls

so will just look like guys standing up in the air

[next orchid]

Also to note we may not be able to shoot while inside

Which would make it more intimidating

[jovial jay]

surely DICE has made a few Feedback scenario regarding the weather system

I bet lots of ppl are going to want a classic battlefield moment without being flung somewhere

then they jump to this discord to complain

[timid escarp]

Any1 got clues for the new mode that they dont leak about yet?

[jovial jay]

and freak their brain out

personally I think it's cool that they keep tornado to a few maps

[hazy vector]

if anything the server configuration settings page will be big

[jovial jay]

for other maps cool thing such as lightning strike could also be nice

[hazy vector]

just disable everything they added

[flat brook]

I think battlefield 2042 is going to be a massive flop

[timid escarp]

Dont they got lightning strikes on the tornado one?

[hazy vector]

new maps, but none of the new mechanics

[mighty gyro]

hardline is funnier than i tought

[mighty gyro]

do u know what flop means

[flat brook]

Yes

failure

[hazy vector]

it's not going to be a flop, it's just not going to be a masive advancement

[jovial jay]

yea I mean during heavy rain without tornado, for the close quarter map with containers everywhere

[mighty gyro]

it wont be a flop , everyones in hype so it will get tons of money

[jovial jay]

let's see if there's anything like that

[flat brook]

Money does not mean success

At first

[hazy vector]

everyone was hyped for cyberpunk, that also crashed and burned PR wise

[mighty gyro]

flop is about money

[flat brook]

What matters is gameplay mechanics

whether it is fun

Then based on that

people may not pay for it

[timid escarp]

Cyberpunk failed bcoz they rushed the devs

[flat brook]

And so far, it’s looking like it’s going to be a failure

[mighty gyro]

"flop" means it doesnt get enough money

[flat brook]

They can barely release any gameplay footage when it’s releasing in october. No transparency

[fading kestrel]

...

[hazy vector]

not just that, the devs also had no experience with the genre, and with making good games on release

[timid escarp]

Yea

[flat brook]

Of course, but you have to realize it mostly comes down to both marketing and gameplay mechanics onto whether they will get money.

[hazy vector]

But the Witcher 3 also took a year of fixing

the witcher 1 didn't even have jumping mechanics, and the aggravating fences you couldn't jump over

[pearl prairie]

Did I see "Bot" in BF MP ?

[hazy vector]

there will be bots in 2042

[jovial jay]

if you keep a positive look on the game then it's not going to disappoint you. Coming into the game and keep saying to yourself that The game is trash and ass, is going to kill your experience

[flat brook]

Battlefield 2043 just looks horrible and unpolished

[hazy vector]

to fill it up to 128 players

[flat brook]

2042*

[fading kestrel]

Just to fill lobbies

Ya

[timid escarp]

Yes 2043 looks horrible

[hazy vector]

because right now, it is unpolished

[flat brook]

I think Battlefield 5 was a great game

but this

[fading kestrel]

Oh

[flat brook]

Im@not sure that it will live up

to battlefield 5

[fading kestrel]

ok

[unkempt coral]

lightning strike and a ground fire

would be dope

[violet inlet]

we havnt even seen real gameplay yet how do u know what it looks like

[fading kestrel]

Bro just talking

[hazy vector]

lighting acts as EMP, disabled shit could be possible

[flat brook]

The fact that they’re not wanting to show much gameplay tells me something.

[violet inlet]

i dont think this will live up to bfv either

[hazy vector]

that it's the second video we've seen?

[fading kestrel]

Broooo theres 4 months left relax yo self

[flat brook]

It’s the first video we’ve seen

First one was an animated reveal

[violet inlet]

bfv they tried making the game more complicated, it looks like they are streamlining this one

still excited for something different and new

[pearl prairie]

Hope Bot know How to move Leg in right direction

[hazy vector]

the "gameplay" traileer is also staged, so nothing is real

[flat brook]

Looks like they’re trying to make it even more complicated with those cluster mechanics and weather and etc

Not streamline

[violet inlet]

yea very staged many cuts

those things dont neccesarily add complexity

[fading kestrel]

Guys weather is complicated 😩😩

[timid escarp]

Doesnt every gameplay looks staged tho?

[flat brook]

Along with a huge map size so they said they had to “change how it plays?” ffs. I doubt they’re doing it right.

[timid escarp]

*gameplay trauler

*trailer

[edgy eagle]

Sheesh

[hazy vector]

nah man, that E3 video of when they released rainbow six siege was totally representative of gameplay

[pearl prairie]

Yeah They did that for long time

Watch BF4 Trailer

[violet inlet]

they are removing classes, they are doing a 180 on bfvs changes like the health and munitions systems, and im worried they will undo the squad leader changes where you can call in smoke barrages or arties

[fading kestrel]

Chill we have all summer to find out

[timid escarp]

Lmao they downgraded the game so bad

Chill we got open beta

[hazy vector]

they tried to suggest it'd be high tactical team strategy

[fading kestrel]

😂 🤣 😂 🤣

[timid escarp]

FOR THE PREORDER BUYERS THO

[flat brook]

The entire open beta is going to be staged

[fading kestrel]

What

[timid escarp]

What

[pearl prairie]

Hope Bot know How to move leg in right situation

[edgy eagle]

Sheesh

[jovial jay]

well it's been a long time since there's a modern world battlefield, so I think 2042 is going to worth my preorder

[brittle canyon]

they tryna keeping us hype

and im very hype

[violet inlet]

i hope they release gameplay of a whole round uncut before beta cause thats a long wait

[fading kestrel]

Ya

[hazy vector]

i'd almost want to bet everyone is going to try grappling hook bullshit and fight out a disapointing amount of things allow grappling onto

[timid escarp]

When is the open beta tho?

[violet inlet]

no matter what im excited, even if i will miss the old systems

[fading kestrel]

They will fs i dont see them skipping out on it

[modest kelp]

halo

[violet inlet]

nah i doubt

[modest kelp]

and cod

[timid escarp]

Is the open beta on 2042?

[fading kestrel]

halo and cod will be pretty different in style

if cod leaks are true

[brittle canyon]

cod look like cross fire now

[modest kelp]

first time in ages that there's been a cod, halo and battlefield release in the same year

[jovial jay]

Halo is all about singleplayer to me

[pearl prairie]

Of course when idk

[violet inlet]

halo is different and doubt will be a good cod this year

[modest kelp]

halo mp will be f2p

[timid escarp]

Cod looks sucks now

[modest kelp]

but people buy cod no matter what

so

[jovial jay]

then the trailer just straight up say "Cortana deleted lul"

[violet inlet]

people loves cod mw

[brittle canyon]

cod cold war was shit

[fading kestrel]

cods warzone is the main thing for a while now

[pearl prairie]

Yeah COD MW is Good

[violet inlet]

but they cut support for coldwar which is shit and they will release a crap cod this year

[hazy vector]

CoD players love cod, i'm not a CoD player

[modest kelp]

they do that every year lol

[violet inlet]

they cut support to cod mw*

[brittle canyon]

cod mw > cod cold war

[arctic grove]

Cod is now catering to the fanbase that moved on from fortnite

[modest kelp]

every cod gets a year of support

[hazy vector]

and i don't want battlefield to be come CoD

[violet inlet]

im just saying people arnt happy with cod rn

[jovial jay]

it won't

[fading kestrel]

Ya cods release every year dont they?

[violet inlet]

they should of supported mw for another year

[jovial jay]

it's more like COD trying to be battlefield

[fading kestrel]

bf has been in works for 3y tho

[modest kelp]

only the new players that haven't played cod before are upset mw doesn't get support anymore

[violet inlet]

its like battlefield trying to be cod now tho

[modest kelp]

it's been like that for years

[brittle canyon]

cod future warfare 2042

[timid escarp]

Cod copying bf modes while bf copying cod specialist

[violet inlet]

mw did so well and ea want some of that

[modest kelp]

characters with abilities isn't a cod thing

[violet inlet]

i think thats why there is no more classes and specialists

[timid escarp]

Titanfall was good tho

[violet inlet]

to make it like cod create a class

[fading kestrel]

specialists isnt a cod exclusive thing

[timid escarp]

I hope there will be titanfall 3

[brittle canyon]

same

[fading kestrel]

😔

[violet inlet]

yes but mw made alot of money on characters

they will make even more money on specialiasts cause you will be buying skins for 5 characters you like rather than one

[hazy vector]

i'm mostly worried about people being able to self resupply any "class"

[violet inlet]

yea we will miss the classes

[brittle canyon]

there no class

[jovial jay]

m26 dart

[timid escarp]

Is preorder the only way to participate in bf 2042 open beta?

[modest kelp]

there kinda are classes

[pearl prairie]

M320 Dart round

[modest kelp]

but it's just playstyle and doesn't lock guns

[violet inlet]

i cant wait tho to have a underbarrel smoke grenade launcher that i can equip and unequip

[modest kelp]

no

preorder gold and ultimate lets you play the beta early

[hazy vector]

now anyone regardless of being a sniper, a assault type player, or a anti vehicle player will be able to just carry a ammo pack and spam without remorse most likely

[modest kelp]

everyone can play the beta

[timid escarp]

Wot

[violet inlet]

you will be such an asset to your team with a smoke grenade launcher and bam can switch back to a foregrip

[modest kelp]

that's what open means

open beta

[timid escarp]

Ultimate and gold gives you early gameplay on launch

[jovial jay]

m26 dart type of broken gun, with grappling hook and high ground

[timid escarp]

But standard doesnt

[jovial jay]

meta

[modest kelp]

and early beta access

[timid escarp]

Yeah i mean other ways than preordering

[modest kelp]

actually I think all the preorders get early beta access

[timid escarp]

Not the editions dood

[modest kelp]

buddy

I literally said

[violet inlet]

fuck theres going to be so much grenade spam with 128 players

[modest kelp]

everyone can play the beta

preorders just get it early

[timid escarp]

Ok so everyone starting from when?

[modest kelp]

they didn't say

[dim blade]

I have not pre-ordered a game for a while

[modest kelp]

there's no date for the beta

[pearl prairie]

I think not

[fading kestrel]

Map so big tho wont be likely to get spammmed in one spot

[jovial jay]

I don't think it matter, considering the size of the map, what Im afraid of is tryhard snipers

[violet inlet]

if you got a whole squad of rocketsd theres so need to ressuply thats 20 rockets between you

[timid escarp]

Same

[dim blade]

yeah but you can use common sense to determine the beta

[jovial jay]

[dim blade]

Usually open beta is like a month b4 game release

BF 2042 releases Oct 23

[modest kelp]

beta is probably in august

[dim blade]

So august/september

[hazy vector]

depends where in the stack of gadgets they'll make it sit

[timid escarp]

They will be leaking the other mode on 22 july

[fading kestrel]

ya we get the final mode later tho

[grave storm]

Sheesh cod kinda fucked

[modest kelp]

you can have a primary, secondary, specialist gadget, regular gadget, and throwable (grenades)

[fading kestrel]

hazard

[jovial jay]

what do you guys think Hazard will be ?

[timid escarp]

No

[jovial jay]

sounds suspiciously like another BR alternative

[timid escarp]

There will be new mode other than hazard

[fading kestrel]

I think something to do with the weather

[timid escarp]

They havent tell us about that yet

[modest kelp]

leaking? if it's officially shown it's not a leak

[pearl prairie]

Specialist gadget will depend on Character ?

[grave storm]

probably something like cod’s fireteam modes in cold war

[modest kelp]

yea

[timid escarp]

Idk they said it they'll be leaking it on july 21

[dim blade]

My guess is some objective based 4v4v4v4v4v4v4v4v4v4.... mode

[simple linden]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/570630666685775873/855088454530760715/Screenshot_2021-06-17_161605.png

lets go bois

[pearl prairie]

Ok I think I understand

[timid escarp]

*22

[modest kelp]

it's not a leak because it's by ea

[grave storm]

mhm fireteam lmao

[timid escarp]

Yeah ik but maybe it'll be different

We dont know yet tho

[modest kelp]

it's a leak if it's released by a 3rd party

[pearl prairie]

So we can play Vehicle Hunter by Choosing Character that have AT mine or something

[fading kestrel]

4v4v4v4v4v4v4v4v4v4v4v4v4v4 except the map is just 2 buildings and a river

[dim blade]

fireteam? that was the Black ops thing right?

[modest kelp]

if the devs show something off it's not a leak

[dim blade]

heard of it, never played tho

[modest kelp]

the trailers aren't leaks

[grave storm]

yep, 4v4v4v4v4v4v4

In objective based modes

[dim blade]

Yeah i guess something in that ballpark

[grave storm]

I’m sure battlefield would go that route, but do it better

[flint jay]

I bet hazard zone will be BR based but they just dont want it to fall under that branding

[grave storm]

Cod did it wrong imo

[arctic grove]

[grave storm]

as a cod fan, I was disappointed

[dim blade]

Okay so it's not BR but maybe it will still have an elimination system

So one squad can be the last one standing

that does not always mean BR...right?

[grave storm]

Just like fireteam

had multiple objective modes but also an elimination mode

[flint jay]

FlakFire mentioned some pretty good points in his video, the game seems very well set up with its airdrop system, grapple hooks, multiple buildings, huge map, huge player count to work well with a BR based mode

[arctic grove]

[flint jay]

Not to mention the PLUS system which would be perfect for BR

[timid escarp]

The hazard mode will look like the scene in the trailer where you fight off other squads in the container kinda place i think or maybe its the final mode

[arctic grove]

[hazy vector]

plz no battleroyale

[modest kelp]

the scene in the trailer isn't hazard zone

there's two teams in that scene

it's just regular mp

[timid escarp]

Yeah im just guessing

You cant guarantee anything before the game comes out

[modest kelp]

you can guarantee some things

[timid escarp]

Well yeah

Battlefiled

What explosion

[somber coral]

I guarantee there will be sick soundtracks

[timid escarp]

Hmm

[timid escarp]

I agree 100%

They already showed that so ok

[somber coral]

under no flag from BFV is art

[peak hill]

which one was that?

[lofty relic]

My friend helped make those

Sound design at DICE is always top notch. He's one of the composers who worked on the music for BF1 and BFV, but then he moved onto the Insurgency games

[silk void]

tell him to come back pls

[heady schooner]

Yo, am just hoping that battlefield 2042 would have a good team balancer, and not have severe SBMM like COD did!

[silk void]

or i mean it can have sbmm but as long as it actually works

[lofty relic]

Think the music in the modern setting games are a bit different anyway. For BF1 and BFV they recorded a live orchestra

[silk void]

steely dan?

[dusk vale]

can’t wait to use the new specialists what about you guys

[pastel anvil]

hype

[silk void]

imagine all out war listening to steely dan lmao

[timid escarp]

Whats the new specialists?

[silk void]

so sick

[heady schooner]

That’s fine by me Cerzo.

[dusk vale]

Just the ones we know about

So far

[timid escarp]

Recon assault etc

[silk void]

yea only reason cod sbmm is so bad is cuz it doesnt work lmao

[dusk vale]

There is characters that have unique gadgets

[timid escarp]

Which you guys bought the gold/ult/standard?

[pearl prairie]

If you look over about Character Gadget still a same System

[timid escarp]

*which one

[dusk vale]

Probably gold when I get enough

I want the passes

[silk void]

same im getting gold

$100 worth of content for $80

at least

[dusk vale]

I want some leng customisations for sundance

[green breach]

SBMM is indeed a good thing when it works. Nobody wants one team of elite against a bunch of noobs.

[timid escarp]

Ultimate only gives you the midnight bundle on top of the things on gold bundle right?

[dusk vale]

I’m probably gonna main him

[timid escarp]

And some soundtracks

[silk void]

im prob gonna try and be a battle healer

[heady schooner]

👍, it’s been nice talking with you Cerzo.

[green breach]

Or her. We don't know yet if Sundance is a guy or a girl

[dusk vale]

Oh yeah sry

[green breach]

Just need a flyswatter to swat out Sundance

[dusk vale]

nice

[heady schooner]

My specialist is gonna be recon and healer, can’t wait to play it bruh!!

[soft kayak]

-kill sundances with a flak cannon

[soft kayak]

respawn beacon + grappling hook to make a professional sniper hunter.

[silk void]

is sundance the only one with the wing suit?

[soft kayak]

yes thats her perk

[silk void]

ah i see

[heady schooner]

Nah, not for me Nito.

[soft kayak]

may have misspoke: the loadout is designed to sneak up behind and knife snipers. Not meant for sniping

Yo guys check out my own homemade trailer for bf the way I wanted it to be shown off 😄

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QoVwcw_HcOw&t=8s

[arctic grove]

@heady schooner me

How can i play pre alpha lol

[lofty relic]

Pre-alpha?

[arctic grove]

I know there is gonna be closed beta

And open beta

[gloomy nimbus]

So uh basic ally

[tender wind]

alpha will be invite only, so you gotta get lucky

[arctic grove]

And in july closed alpha

[gloomy nimbus]

Install unregistered hyper cam 2

[arctic grove]

For yt and twitch

[gloomy nimbus]

By shoving an egg up your nose

[arctic grove]

🤣

[fresh talon]

[arctic grove]

@fresh talon insane game

[gloomy nimbus]

👍

[arctic grove]

🐧

[lofty relic]

The technical test in July won't be a closed alpha

[fresh talon]

YES

[tender wind]

Just because they're not calling it that doesn't mean it's not that

[still vault]

If you by alpha actually mean technical playtest, then yes https://www.ea.com/games/battlefield/battlefield-2042/faq

[timid escarp]

so everyone that preorders can play on tech test right?

[lofty relic]

It's not that, though

[gloomy nimbus]

Certified good classic

[lofty relic]

Not correct

[timid escarp]

ohh ok

[still vault]

no, read the faq I linked

[lofty relic]

If you pre-order, you get early access to the open beta

[timid escarp]

okay thank you

[edgy eagle]

Sheesh

[lofty relic]

The technical test will be for chosen people, but it's not going to be a typical closed alpha, it'll be whiteboxed

[edgy eagle]

[still vault]

No problem, it's a good read 🙂

[arctic grove]

@lofty relic its probably stress test

[still vault]

gray box

[lofty relic]

Haha yes, sorry

[lofty tiger]

what is a greybox

[lofty relic]

I'll just blame my color blindness even though it has nothing to do with this situation

[tender wind]

Basically no real difference except they'll actually be looking for specific feedback instead of just stress testing the servers

[faint hazel]

any reason to get it on steam rather than origin?

[lofty tiger]

steam is cheaper

[faint hazel]

hmm i see

[lofty tiger]

atleast in my country after taxes

[heady schooner]

Yo, would anyone want to play battlefield 2042, once the pre-alpha comes out, looking for a squad, already have my cousin down to play, but you always welcome to play? Am on Xbox.

[lofty tiger]

add me

[still vault]

from my understanding this is an example of a gray box environment

Here's the part about the technical playtest, from the faq:

"Yes, a limited number of Battlefield veteran players will be able to participate in a Technical Playtest in the beginning of July 2021. Note that this test will not be a Closed Alpha similar to those created for previous Battlefield games. The Technical Playtest will be done in a closed setting where we’ll be using a grey box environment of the game, with participants under NDA. Get more information on the Technical Playtest page."

[timid escarp]

[bleak nebula]

[gloomy nimbus]

You are acting like a sussy baka

[arctic grove]

@lofty relic how can i play in july

I have to get access

[timid escarp]

XDD tru

[lofty relic]

Haha yeah go for it

[arctic grove]

Lmao

[timid escarp]

if you are lucky and a veteran then you can be invited

[arctic grove]

Im veteran

12 years account almost lol

[lofty relic]

I think it'll be close to impossible. Since NDA is involved they probably won't risk inviting anyone from the public

[timid escarp]

yeah good luck then xd

[arctic grove]

Tons of bf games played on it

[glacial lance]

Closed BF4 alpha was greyboxed too

[tender wind]

You just gotta get lucky

[arctic grove]

But do i need to apply to anything

[timid escarp]

im up all night to get lucky

[arctic grove]

Or does it happen without me needing to do anything

[lofty relic]

Don't think I was in that. I played the BF1 alpha which was not greyboxed

[lofty relic]

You'd most likely get an email about it, no sign-ups

[tender wind]

BF4 was greyboxed because the game was that far behind in development, let's hope the case isn't similar here

[arctic grove]

Oh ok

We will see

[lofty relic]

If it was so far behind how come it had an absolutely flawless launch?

[tender wind]

I'm gonna hope your joking

[tender wind]

Yes i know how obvious that was but some people are that stupid

[young isle]

🇭 🇷 🇴 🇴 🇲

[lofty relic]

Anyway, we'll just have to wait for open beta to actually get our first taste of the new game

Won't be as fun experiencing a greyboxed environment anyway

[bleak nebula]

alpha is greybox, so not full experience 🤔

[lofty relic]

Exactly

Not sure if I'll be invited or if it's for cool GCs (i.e Jackfrags) only

[bleak nebula]

@lofty relichow did you end up a ea game changer?

[lofty relic]

Once I reached 1.0 KD they were like "Hey you're a decent player"

[arctic grove]

theyre an EA content creator

[mystic compass]

What if the game sh*ts the bed?
