[hard breach]

Penguins have criminal tendencies

[lucid goblet]

Keep posts on topic please @hard breach 👀

[hard breach]

Well there gonna be penguins in 2042

[lucid goblet]

yes,but a yt clip of penguins isn't exactly BF2042 related just because it contains penguins lol

[hard breach]

lol, gotcha

[formal spruce]

Everyone thinking about the gameplay.

Me: Thinking about the Easter Eggs.

[hard breach]

but when the penguin snatches your side arm dont blame me for not informing you

[lucid goblet]

https://tenor.com/view/happy-chocolate-day-easter-egg-gif-20883357

[formal spruce]

I'll leave that up to JackFraggs and his hooligans.

[hard breach]

This is a different game of egg hunt

where eggs hunt you

[north raven]

Pointing at all the things

[arctic grove]

so you'll be able to send a rocket towards a group of penguins?

[opal compass]

find that 1cm big switch on breakaway to trigger a morsecode or another switch to hit..

fun

[formal spruce]

I wouldn't want to be looking for small buttons on maps that are the size of Halvøy

[lucid goblet]

Th Penguins in BF2042 flee when you get near,apparently.

[hard breach]

We all know that is a cover up for the fact that they in fact carry guns too

you dont shoot penguin, penguin shoots you

[lucid goblet]

what do you think robodog was created for?

[hard breach]

locate the penguins' weapon cache

[formal spruce]

It would be super cool if 2042 had underwater gunfights.

[north raven]

That's from Boston Dynamics

[elder cloud]

Why'd this suddenly turn to a discussion about penguins with guns smh

[north raven]

Like COD

[hard breach]

[formal spruce]

@north raven Lol, similarly

[hard breach]

someone doesnt like getting shot by penguins

[arctic grove]

im going to call in a v1 bf2042 equivalent on a horde of penguins

they taste like chicken

[elder cloud]

They're resistant probably

[hard breach]

The prophecy is coming true

[hard breach]

penguins are the future, humans are irrelevant

[arctic grove]

what’s up with this penguin stuff?

[formal spruce]

[arctic grove]

color grading is so easy

why dont people color them

[elder cloud]

FB2042

[raw moss]

@arctic grove Hypersonic missles against Penguins seems to be worth the use 🤣

[hard breach]

I cannot wait to face kowalski in an mfing tank battle

[raw moss]

If they are going extinct let's expedite it

[hard breach]

Nuke the penguins

[arctic grove]

ohhhh

[hard breach]

I like my penguins extra crispy

[worn whale]

Penguin

Penguinfield bro

thats why I bought the game

[formal spruce]

Does anyone know when Final Stand took place?

[hard breach]

screw the humans, penguins is where its at

Return to monke or evolve to penguin

[arctic grove]

BattlePenguins 2042

[worn whale]

I know people will kill penguins

but still

[raw moss]

@opal compass who wants to be the Megladon Easter egg is in that map?

[hard breach]

🧑‍🦲 -

[opal compass]

sharknado

[worn whale]

MegaPenguin would be lit

[hard breach]

how about a penguin on a tank

[opal compass]

100% sure that the megalodon jumps out of the tornado

[hard breach]

Pengnado

[formal spruce]

Sharknado

[hard breach]

Hold on, what if the tornado is a conspiracy by the penguins to distract humans from their upcoming invasion?

[raw moss]

And the whole server has to kill it? That be so jokes

[hard breach]

Its 2042, I will not be suprised terminator penguins exist

also brb

[fossil trench]

I’m surprised to learn that the shark is in BFV

Didn’t know it was until recently

[formal spruce]

Penguin: This global warming shit kinda lit

[hard breach]

The global penguin war is inevitable

[formal spruce]

@fossil trench you know the Bable EE?

[fossil trench]

The what?

[formal spruce]

There is a EE on BFV

It's pretty damn cool

[fossil trench]

EE?

[formal spruce]

Easter Egg

[fossil trench]

Oh

[formal spruce]

It even has it's own map to do it on

[fossil trench]

What bable EE?

Wdym by bable

[formal spruce]

It's a reference to the Tower of Bable

[fossil trench]

What’s that?

[formal spruce]

It's mythological

You unlock a clothing set when you complete it though

[fossil trench]

Oh just looked it up

[fossil trench]

Oh do you mean the one where you build to the sky?

[formal spruce]

Yes

[fossil trench]

Yeah, yeah I know what you’re talking about

[formal spruce]

I want to do that one.

[fossil trench]

You need 4 people

If only there was an easier to get the outfit

[formal spruce]

That's the only main Easter Egg I haven't done yet for the main BF titles.

I wish

[fossil trench]

I never did the phantom program

[sterile tide]

It’s easy

[fossil trench]

Isn’t there an easier way to get the bow?

[sterile tide]

Ofc

[formal spruce]

@fossil trench Very easier

Lol

[desert vapor]

Yeah it's on a map

[fossil trench]

How do you get it?

[formal spruce]

Just pick it up

[loud ermine]

community map

[sterile tide]

YouTube is your best friend

[fossil trench]

It’s too bad that the bow is against the rules in most custom servers

[sterile tide]

I haven’t touched a mouse in 3 months now can’t wait to comeback

[formal spruce]

The bow is the best for getting the F2000

Because you need so many kill assists in Metro

[fossil trench]

Already got the F2000 a while ago

[native robin]

Battlefield 2142 vibes

[fossil trench]

Because I spend all my time in Metro lol

I love it

[formal spruce]

I just used the Poison Tip. It was actually OP in those situations when people just fight in a tunnel

Ended that real quick. I can only imagine how pissed off the other team was, but it's annoying when US always gets the advantage because they always get B.

[fossil trench]

Nevermind. I’m really stupid

I thought a “community” server was like a private server like the test range

I’m stupid

[somber hinge]

[arctic grove]

Imagine if you get all weapons in bf42 if you have all in bf4

**without the shortcut

[upbeat hinge]

you do get all weapons in bf 2042 though

[native robin]

[fossil trench]

Can you not buy custom servers anymore?

In BF4

[formal spruce]

You can

[arctic grove]

.......wow

[formal spruce]

It's very buggy, but you can.

[fossil trench]

Oh my UI must be glitched then

[formal spruce]

On PS4 it's buggy, atleast

[fossil trench]

Yeah it’s showing my rented servers instead of showing me prices to rent servers lol

[formal spruce]

If you're PC idk how that works

[fossil trench]

I’m on PS4

[formal spruce]

It doesn't give you the option to rent?

[fossil trench]

It just says “No servers found” under “Rent a server”

Are they maxed out or something?

[formal spruce]

Can you hit Square to rent?

[fossil trench]

No there’s no option to do anything

[formal spruce]

That's weird

[fossil trench]

I think they might be maxed out

No servers available to rent

[formal spruce]

Probably with so many people returning.

[fossil trench]

Yeah all the servers are maxed out lol

Dozens and dozens

[formal spruce]

I usually only play Dragon Plus

or Durkadurkastan

[fossil trench]

I play METRO MANIACS 24/7 server

Everyday

[formal spruce]

What's your IGN

probably have seen you there

[solid heart]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=muKLi8rOoR8&t=337s&ab_channel=Heperkoo

[fossil trench]

treedemolisherr. Also, BigHeadedManiac, SorryIShotYouLol

[formal spruce]

SorryIShotYouLol sounds familiar... almost like a named I have been shot by

😳

[hazy vector]

You have to rent the server form 3rd parties only now. EA considers BF 4 end of life

[fossil trench]

I keep changing my name

I wish I could get the SorryIShotYouLol name back

[dim willow]

Just preordered the ultimate edition

[fossil trench]

Nice

[formal spruce]

Do you know Smoke_session101?@fossil trench

He is a friend of mine. Always in Metro

[fossil trench]

Sounds very vaguely familiar

Was he on last night?

[formal spruce]

What about HereComesJohnny

I'm not sure

[grave birch]

[fossil trench]

Definitely haven’t seen him

OG name though

[formal spruce]

Lol

Feels like Elegant_Flowers owns every damn server on PS4

[potent matrix]

!when

[azure lodge]

[fossil trench]

Yeah probably

[formal spruce]

[mellow rock]

Like full on gameplay as in get to see something other than the gameplay reveal trailer

[boreal widget]

[mellow rock]

Tuna

[boreal widget]

yes

[mellow rock]

Want pasta?

[boreal widget]

I prefer pizza

[mellow rock]

Now to make tuna pasta

[flint jay]

space DLC confirmed???

[minor helm]

Pizza

[mellow rock]

[boreal widget]

ok honest question, how do you tell your team from the enemies

since all of us are No Pats

well that is obvious but a visual cue from uniforms would be better

[mellow rock]

They said there will be a uniform difference between teams

[boreal widget]

probably US or Russia uniforms

[mellow rock]

Yeah

[minor helm]

Euh

Jack said

That the enemies looked darker

And i think that if youre close to one a red dot will show ip

And every teame mate close to you will be marked blue

So you know that if you come across some one who does not have a blue dot

Hes a anemie

Hm

[boreal widget]

in before 2 teams all picking sundance and have a human dogfight by ramming the fuck out of each other

[minor helm]

Do you think that like in bf4 when you shoot you will be shown on the mini map is to op?

[boreal widget]

maybe there will be a "stealth" specialist with a passive like that

[midnight whale]

That would be annoying

But also keep in mind hardcore

[boreal widget]

whether you use a suppressor or not

maybe he will also have quieter footsteps or sth

[midnight whale]

It would probably be a passive that has him not show up on mini map as long

[boreal widget]

yeah some kind of emp jammer that blocked the enemies' radar from spotting him

for a period of time

[minor helm]

Op

[boreal widget]

maybe it will also render him "cold" to thermal scopes

[minor helm]

Would be cool tho

[flint jay]

Almost every shooting game has that lol

[boreal widget]

they will find a way to balance

[flint jay]

Without it the game becomes harder

[minor helm]

I can see EA making a paid skind which has stealth clothing

[boreal widget]

there will probably be tank, helicopter and fighter specialists

or just vehicle in general

[minor helm]

🤨

How you mean?

[boreal widget]

probably passive fixing without relying on an engineer

or tougher armor

[minor helm]

Ahhh

[boreal widget]

sth like that

[minor helm]

Yea

I can imagine a squad in that new massive helicopter

[boreal widget]

they promote teamwork a lot

[minor helm]

With those abilities

Would be to op

Lmao

[boreal widget]

it's basically a mini gunship

[minor helm]

I want that

[boreal widget]

well there is an actual gunship spotted at the start of the trailer

[minor helm]

^

[boreal widget]

you think we will have the B1 bomber?

always want to pilot one of those in games

[minor helm]

Maybe to op

But now with this bigger scale

It might

[boreal widget]

oh and the B2 also

over a billion dollar for one of those bad boys

[woeful seal]

[boreal widget]

that thing looks like an alien ship ngl

[minor helm]

Would be coool

[boreal widget]

having a setting in 2042 gives them a lot of leeway of what would be possible or not

[minor helm]

I want commander mode back

[boreal widget]

a lot of folks do

I've seen someone suggested a specialist that can walk on wall

[minor helm]

What

Nah

That would go to far

I think

[boreal widget]

imagine getting popped by a guy standing upside down

[minor helm]

Lmao

[still vault]

Was good in theory but it didn't add too much to the gameplay except giving people with tablets something to do on the toilet

[minor helm]

Hahaha

😂

It was pretty cool

[boreal widget]

that would be quite op actually, since the human mind cannot register the shape of humans that are not standing upright as fast

[minor helm]

Yeah but pls no

Would ruin the game

[bleak nebula]

it was good for relaxing

[boreal widget]

or pooping

[minor helm]

Yeah

[still vault]

It was cool alright, but people didn't do what the commander said so the commander didn't really have that big of an impact

[minor helm]

It would be epic now with 128 players

[minor helm]

Yea thats true

[boreal widget]

10 years later, Battlefield will boast 128 v 128

[bleak nebula]

imagine how big the maps would need to be

[flint jay]

It would be cool if they focused on commanders being more of a commander vs commander type minigame instead of the main objective being helping the team

[boreal widget]

probably twice the size of the biggest one we will get in 2042

[flint jay]

Then whoever commander wins and does better in terms of managing and helping the team gets more points and gets better perks to help their team win

[still vault]

Creating a minigame within the game rarely goes well in FPS games.

[flint jay]

Well it'd be exact same way BF4 commander mode works but more of a focus on helping the team

[minor helm]

He could have some more impact that if he would say to people to attack a objective that if they would do that their team would get more tickets

So would people actually listen to the commander

[flint jay]

Just different method to earn benefits, instead of capturing objectives it relies on gaining points by helping the team

[still vault]

And the BF4 commander mode didn't go well. A lot of effort on something that is rarely used.

[flint jay]

Because it wasn't well done, there's no reason to be a commander

Its boring

[still vault]

You are making my point :p

[flint jay]

What I'm saying is make there be a battle between the commanders so whoever helps the team via supplying them, dropping resources, dropping vehicles, whatever, squads following orders, etc Gains points

[still vault]

That was how BF4 was supposed to work. And it didn't go well.,

[flint jay]

It works similar in BF4 except the rewards you get are so trash

Like you get like 1 vehicle drop which is just a quad for max points

thats so shit

[mellow rock]

I hope they go over vehicle calling on the 22nd july

[bleak nebula]

maybe it will be like battlefront 2

[flint jay]

I personally think commander mode could be something cool

[mellow rock]

?

[wanton talon]

bro....? are like bots new to ya'll? i've been reading youtube comments and everybody are sad they're adding bots and not a singleplayer story

[flint jay]

Yeah they're adding AI bots

To fill servers or for people to play solo

[somber nebula]

yes theyr adding an ai mode to play on your own to practise

[mellow rock]

Pretty lonely

[somber nebula]

like old school bfs had

before bf2

[mellow rock]

But then again practice isn’t gonna be like how actual players play like experienced players

@somber nebula

[somber nebula]

well obviously

[wanton talon]

i've been playing BF2, 1942, and 2142 for these past 6 years, i'm like cringing at these new players upset that DICE is not putting a singleplayer story to their game, like, i used to play against bots all the time, and switching between multiplayer, destroying an entire army using F-35Bs and other stuff

[opal compass]

you still can roam around the maps, find secret ways to get into a compound, lern the vehicles etc etc

[still vault]

You can practice the mechanics but the meta and real player unpredictability is something that will have to be learned online :p

[flint jay]

But it'll help with aim and mechanics of the game

[somber nebula]

and you can get the sensation of getting kills

[mellow rock]

Just remembered what I need go check my settings for BFV write them down so I can add them for 2042

[somber nebula]

even if its bots

[opal compass]

dunno if i missed this, can you start a server solo/group without the ai? (2042) like for finding eastereggs or shenanigans like a car race

[mellow rock]

Like custom games?

[flint dune]

does anyone know what would be the game size of bf 2042?

[opal compass]

ye, something like that

[boreal widget]

I think there will be an option to turn off AI

[peak hill]

approx 100gb

not including updates

[boreal widget]

would be weird to not have such a thing

[opal compass]

!!specs

[tender pendant]

Currently there are no official PC specifications released by DICE for Battlefield 2042.
Any specs floating around the internet are just assumptions or rumors.

[wanton talon]

maybe, they're maybe implementing a separate gamemode like Co-op, Solo, And multiplayer, like BF2 maybe

[opal compass]

hmm, i hope

[mellow rock]

60 GB for console not bad

Then again the add ons

[wanton talon]

yeah, they're not stupid enough to put bots in a real multiplayer games

[opal compass]

wanna do a race around hourglass or breakaway with my clan

[flint jay]

They are going to

[opal compass]

that will surely be a lot of fun

[wanton talon]

lmao? really?

[arctic grove]

Well thats because those are the same COD players who thought BF was a edgy rip-off during the 3-4 era.

[flint jay]

Yeah they said bots will be used to fill lobbies

[opal compass]

yep, until the server is full

[peak hill]

yea they did it to fill in empty spaces

[wanton talon]

maybe i guess, but i'm pretty sure they're going to do a separate gamemodes too like CO-OP and other shenanigans

[peak hill]

for me thats good because OCE probably has the most on and off servers I have ever seen

[opal compass]

car race

[flint jay]

Co-Op – Allows you to play together with friends, against AI soldiers.
Solo – If you wish to perfect your skills for multiplayer, you can even play alone against AI soldiers```

[peak hill]

hits a certain time, all servers = dead
hits peak, all servers = alive

[wanton talon]

i'm just happy they're adding bots back, its like heaven to me

[mellow rock]

Out of most battlefield games I have played BFV seems to lag

[peak hill]

weekends are the best though

[wanton talon]

i've been avoiding BF since BF4

[peak hill]

all day is peak time

[wanton talon]

but since they're going back to their old roots and not doing some COD ripoff stuff, i'm happy as hell

[flint jay]

Same but I tried BFV and it was decent, not the same free vibe as BF4/3 but still pretty good

[wanton talon]

i've played BF3 and BF4, liked it, prefered BF3, but i tried BF1 on my cousin PC, ehhh, not too liking it, so i avoid it till now

the first ever FPS game that my father introduced me was BF2142, that's why i'm ecstatic they're going back to old mechanics

[hazy vector]

I don't want bots in servers if they're empty they're empty

[somber nebula]

my first bf game was 1942

i also played some play4free

[wanton talon]

play4free was eh for me, prefered the original BF2

[delicate gale]

Does anyone one know if battlefield 2042 will have a campaign?

[bleak nebula]

it won't

[delicate gale]

Ok thanks

[wanton talon]

if i look for campaign games, i play COD, i usually play COD for campaigns and maybe some multiplayer

[fading kestrel]

🧤

[delicate gale]

I wonder if we are going to be able to do that jump out of the fighter jet shoot down the plane then get back in and fly away like in the trailer

[wanton talon]

you can actually! players in BF4 and BF3 do that all the time

[bleak nebula]

depends on whether we have animations for entering and leaving vehicles

[somber nebula]

it wasnt an intended feature

in bf3 and 4

[delicate gale]

I have never done that either of them

[still vault]

non-intended features are intended when you create a sandbox ^^

[wanton talon]

players found the mechanic and became an unintended feature now

[delicate gale]

Makes sense

[wanton talon]

yeah, i count battlefield as a sandbox

[somber nebula]

they shouldve fixed the buggy lav

[delicate gale]

Same

[wanton talon]

not vast like ARMA 3, but still a good sandbox war game

[somber nebula]

its a fun vehicle until you get stuck

[bleak nebula]

the jet swap more insane than the rendezook tho, the one where he jumps out of jet, snipes the enemy pilot midair and takes the enemy jet in bf3

[hazy vector]

And in response to earlier, commander mode works fine, just putting it on tablet mode is eh. It sucks so many servers disabled it

And then in the rare event its enabled people don't realise and you'll only have one commander

[wanton talon]

dude, i play commander all the time in old battlefield, if you get a good commander and spot all the things for you, its easy to win a match

[hazy vector]

Also more fun as you could kill the commander

[wanton talon]

i want the commander like not be separated from the normal soldier, like you can be a commander but you can still go to the front too

[hazy vector]

Bf2 commander was neat

[wanton talon]

just like press caps lock and it gets you to a commander screen

[wanton talon]

it was LIT!

even tho its a support oriented commander

[hazy vector]

i remember some servers specifically disabling that sataliite scan

[wanton talon]

but it was good, you can drop supplies, vehicles, and scan using UAVs and satelite scans

[arctic grove]

to be honest bf2042 impressed me

[peak hill]

I taught myself never to pre order stuff but when you fuse hype + lack of any new games, just gotta go for it

[hazy vector]

i did it once, and that was cyberpunk. never again

[ember yarrow]

For entering, yes

[peak hill]

they could add an animation like in the trailer, the pilot pulled the ejection seat

[wanton talon]

did it once on farcry 5, not good at all.

[arctic grove]

I will preorder bf2042 :I

[peak hill]

either that or it was to open the top and actually jump but oh well

[wanton talon]

don't man, if you want to preorder, preorder like 3-2 days before launch

thats a good preorder tactic

[peak hill]

but... beta

if beta suck just cancel pre order

[delicate gale]

Agree

[opal compass]

[hazy vector]

beta won't cary over to the release anyway

so why even play

[delicate gale]

So it won’t be a good idea

[opal compass]

to lern the basics

[peak hill]

yea yea but what im saying is that you can have an initial play and if that doesnt help you can always cancel, get your money back, and then wait

[arctic grove]

why steam and not origin?

[wanton talon]

dude, that's not a beta, that's just a test before launch, they're not fixing anything in that amount of time (probably servers and small stuff), the beta your looking for is MW2019 Beta, that's a good Beta access, like 9 months before launch or something

[opal compass]

why origin when you are able to get it on steam?

[hazy vector]

because steam is better and fuck having two social platforms

[tribal wyvern]

why neither

ea desktop is better

steam'll just open origin

[turbid arrow]

Because it launches origin anyway

[hazy vector]

EA should stop being a bitch and not launch origin fro msteam

[tribal wyvern]

ea desktop is better bro

steam launches origin anyway

get the gamae on ea desktop

[arctic grove]

won't it launch origin anyway?

lol

[tribal wyvern]

able to cancel pre roder, game launches a lot quickly and runs better

[opal compass]

i know that part. Origin is always running on my pc so i don't care

[arctic grove]

Steam has better refund policy too

[wanton talon]

EA desktop is better? its buggy, its slow, its shit.

[tribal wyvern]

ea desktop has the same as steam

[tribal wyvern]

not for me

for me no bugs

it's fast

looks good

[wanton talon]

and not a good UI

[tribal wyvern]

and better than origin

[tribal wyvern]

and what makes you think origin has a better one lmao

[wanton talon]

oh, you mean the EA desktop

[still vault]

No, Origin actually has the better refund policy

[opal compass]

steam servers are faster to download, so

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[tribal wyvern]

yeah i mean ea desktop

the ea app

[sterile tide]

Steam itself is great but playing battlefield from steam is non sense like wtf just go to origin directly

[wanton talon]

i think you meant origin

[tribal wyvern]

go to ea desktop instead

[arctic grove]

Oh, I thought it was the other way around

[tribal wyvern]

no i meant ea desktop

[sterile tide]

What’s ea desktop

[tribal wyvern]

origin ofc is shit as you described

[wanton talon]

yeah, the EA desktop is neat, but Origin... its shit as fuck

[tribal wyvern]

origin replacement that's in open beta atm

if you download it it'll replace origin on your pc

[still vault]

So you are just saying shit without having even looked into it? 😄

[tribal wyvern]

like everything from origin will sync on there

it doesn't take up any cpu usage liek origin does

games launc hfaster

[sterile tide]

Oh nice i will try that

[tribal wyvern]

and run better

[arctic grove]

Many people were saying that so I thought

[tribal wyvern]

any origin shortcuts and any origin games you already have downloded it wil ldetect them

and trying ot launch an origin shortcut'll open ea desktop instead

[delicate gale]

Why not they launch on Stream, origin, Xbox games pass, Play station Plus, etc.

[wanton talon]

yeah, i'm confused why EA doesn't make a good launcher straight away and still chose the shit one called origin for the past 7-6 years

[tribal wyvern]

look if someone's trying to buy the game on pc do not go for steam

go for ea desktop

if you get an origin key from a reseller it'll work o nea desktop

people who are trying to buy it do dickhead

[wanton talon]

Lots of people cares lmao

[delicate gale]

People that want to buy the game

[tribal wyvern]

do you know how many people come in ehre asking whether they hsoudl go for origin or steam

[hazy vector]

the fact that both origin and EA desktop exist makes me want to use both even less

[still vault]

EA Desktop is going to replace Origin, they are the same shop, the entitlements are being added to the same account

[tribal wyvern]

yes exactly

i said that earlier

[peak hill]

this got spicy real quick... popcorn?

[tribal wyvern]

that's why everyone should get ea desktop

[peak hill]

[delicate gale]

You did

[tribal wyvern]

it's just a lot better than origin is

[arctic grove]

what the heck is ea desktop?

[tribal wyvern]

and since steam'll open origin anyway i figured it's better to let people know ea desktop is better

[opal compass]

the new origin

[north raven]

When is EA desktop coming?

[peak hill]

its a desktop made by EA

[tribal wyvern]

origin replacement in open ebta

[peak hill]

[tribal wyvern]

meant to replace origin completely

in fact the only reason origin is still up is because since ea desktop is in beta it's not yet finished

[still vault]

EA Desktop should only be downloaded by people that are ready for beta software.

[tribal wyvern]

but bf 2042 will be on it and all your bf games wil lbe sync

[still vault]

https://www.ea.com/ea-app-beta

[opal compass]

ea desktop didn't run well on my pc, so it flew straight away

[hazy vector]

EA should fuck rigth off and decouple itself from steam and let their games launch without thir intervention

[tribal wyvern]

i don't really know

[north raven]

Got it

[tribal wyvern]

well it's not your call

[arctic grove]

but it seems that everything connects to origin anyway

[tribal wyvern]

and they're developign a whole new launcehr to replace origin anwyay

[opal compass]

they just went back to steam

[tribal wyvern]

so don't count it on happening ever

[arctic grove]

so isn't it better to have the game directly on origin?

[tribal wyvern]

i think he meant to say to not let their games force open origin even whe non steam

[arctic grove]

steam -> origin -> then it turns on

[tribal wyvern]

better to have it on ea desktop

[arctic grove]

why do you love ea desktop so much?

[tribal wyvern]

cuz origin ahs fucked up my pc for years

and as soon as i downladoed ea desktop everything went faster

origin takes up 80 percent of my cpu when open

[opal compass]

gonna stick with steam

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[tribal wyvern]

steam'll jut open origin in the background..............

it'll be worse than only origin

[opal compass]

its always running on my pc

ALWAYS

[tribal wyvern]

since you got origin AND steam running in the background

[wanton talon]

nah, people want games on steam again, steam is now like... a UNIVERSAL launcher to all publishers

[tribal wyvern]

i don't get why people think steam is better when steam just opens origin anyway

[arctic grove]

Let people use their preferred stores

[tribal wyvern]

i'd love for the games to be on steam too, but they're clearly not

it's just a facade

[hazy vector]

that's why origin needs to die, the whole "fuck you we'll force you to open two launchers" was cursed from the beginning

[tribal wyvern]

it opens origin anyway

it's not truly on steam

[arctic grove]

Use whatever you want

[fading kestrel]

Chillllllllllllll

[tribal wyvern]

that's what i'm saying

[opal compass]

i got steam, origin, ubisoft connect, (sometimes epic) and wargaming launcher active all the time

[tribal wyvern]

and origin IS dying

but ea desktop is replacing it

that's the issue here

[opal compass]

takes like 2% of my cpu

[tribal wyvern]

you don't really got a choice

[arctic grove]

Anyone want battlefield 4 key

[fading kestrel]

[tribal wyvern]

it's free on prime gaming, don't try and scam people pls

[fading kestrel]

👁️👁️

[opal compass]

he has a key he doesnt need

[proven torrent]

it will take a long time tho..... remember EA desktop came out last year... and its still far from a finished product....

[tribal wyvern]

for a beta it works pretty well for me ngl

[mighty sigil]

for free?

[arctic grove]

You have to take prime giving in very low price

[split parcel]

Yeah, I prefer EA Desktop over Origin

[arctic grove]

since ea desktop replaces it, it doesn't matter whether you buy it on origin or ea desktop

[tribal wyvern]

but like if someone cares about stuff running in the background and doesn't like thw two launchers thing i'd recommend ea desktop

[tribal wyvern]

it doesn't

ea desktop synced with origin so

buy it on origin it'll be on ea desktop

buy it on ea desktop it'll be on origin

[fading kestrel]

Ok stop time we get it

[opal compass]

[tribal wyvern]

same

[mighty sigil]

@soft kettle dm me the key if its free please (im asking for a friend

[tribal wyvern]

i was actually planning to buy bf 2042 on steam

but then i rememebred the two launchers thing

and peopel told me about ea deskto pat some point

[opal compass]

i know? just my opinion

[tribal wyvern]

and i switched my pre order platform to ea desktop rather than steam

[arctic grove]

Do what you want man

[tribal wyvern]

honestly it's just not worth it to buy it on steam if it'll just open origin

it's just a trick for it to be on steam

[fading kestrel]

Why this channel tho

[tribal wyvern]

cuz we were talking about which platform's better to pre order bf 2042 on

i choose ea desktop

[fading kestrel]

Ok

[tribal wyvern]

for the people choosing steam either they don't care about the two launchers thing or smth else

[peak hill]

you know what the funny thing is?
after all of this blows over we'll just forget it ever happened

so lets just stop this shenanigans and go back to hype

[tribal wyvern]

it's gonna be a month without info, hype is dying down rn

[minor horizon]

[fading kestrel]

1 month for the bf2042 thing

[arctic grove]

too long

[steep star]

why did dice decide to give specialists their own story

[minor horizon]

ea desktop really really REALLY aint it

[arctic grove]

I dunno either

[steep star]

it would have been perfect if it was just another nameless grunt

[tribal wyvern]

they didn't

[still vault]

[tribal wyvern]

just saying where they come from isn't a background story

not like bo4 did anyway

[fading kestrel]

little lore is alright nothing wrong with that

[tribal wyvern]

saying they're called NoPats and are hired by the military isn't really their own story

[fading kestrel]

[steep star]

i want to play as a nameless grunt

[tribal wyvern]

just lets people know they're mercenaries

[steep star]

not some war hero

[tribal wyvern]

nothing more

[tribal wyvern]

bruhhhh they'ren ot war heroes

[steep star]

its hypothetical

[tribal wyvern]

they're literally civilians turned fighters

[mighty sigil]

what is ea desktop

[tribal wyvern]

it's explained in the lore

[fading kestrel]

They ARE grunts just with names relax

[tribal wyvern]

origin replacement

[split parcel]

I don't really see the problem. We have named soldiers in Battlefield V and no one bats an eye.

[tribal wyvern]

it's in open beta rn

[minor horizon]

they ARE distinct people tho for some reason

[steep star]

the names part ruins it

[fading kestrel]

???[{|°©[{€[

[minor horizon]

yeah it such a weird decision i dont get who at dice had that idea

[mighty sigil]

if i buy the game on steam when i launch the game will it launch ea desktop or origin

[fading kestrel]

¿¿¿

[tribal wyvern]

so apparently grunts lack a compelte identity

their documents are just blank

like wtf that makes no sense

[split parcel]

Either.

[tribal wyvern]

origin

if you download ea desktop, it'll launch ea desktop

[minor horizon]

bf just feels weird when u have 20 clones running around

[tribal wyvern]

OH yeah that's what you can do

[steep star]

yeah

[tribal wyvern]

you cna buy it on steam, AND download ea desktop

[mighty sigil]

ok thanks

[tribal wyvern]

that's a nice compromise for who's undecisiv

[fading kestrel]

having names is just to make them distinct Ok so you can call them by name and not "the dude with a wingsuit"

[tribal wyvern]

yeah exactly

[minor horizon]

dude dont even bother with ea desktop till they fix that dumpster fire

[tribal wyvern]

what dumpster fire

[steep star]

i prefer dude with a wingsuit 100 times more than big russian guy

[humble rose]

Why pre order through Steam and not EA? Cause Steam is reliable in giving back money

[tribal wyvern]

ea desktop has the same policy

i read it

[turbid arrow]

I think he ment 3 and 4 where you see 20 of the same medic

[mighty sigil]

can you gift games on ea desktop

[tribal wyvern]

i read the ea desktop policy on refunds and pre orders

lemme explain

[minor horizon]

it doesnt have an option to change language in games, it takes the OS language

[boreal widget]

'sup buckos

[tribal wyvern]

are you talking about ea desktop

[minor horizon]

yes

[tribal wyvern]

just open origin, do it frmo there and use ea desktop again

it's in ebta

i'ts in beta

they can change that

[minor horizon]

yeah but why even bother with ea desktop when origin exists

[tribal wyvern]

so about the policy

[minor horizon]

orgin is still shit but just way better

[tribal wyvern]

ea desktop's faster, more optimized, less resources used

[humble rose]

You can't just throw up a coin and hope they change it

[flint jay]

My favourite launcher is by far the battle.net one

[humble rose]

Origin is fine

[arctic grove]

so when origin is replaced with ea desktop, all the games will transfer to ea desktop?

[steep star]

the whole specialists thing feels like adding a campaign character as a playable character in multiplayer

it just feels wrong

[agile mountain]

anyone preorder?

[tribal wyvern]

you can give them feedback bruh

[minor horizon]

bro i dont think using origin will half your fps

[split parcel]

Becayse EA Desktop works better and looks better than Origin

[tribal wyvern]

yes

your account and games you own are left unchanged

[tribal wyvern]

it halves my fucking cpu usage

and it does half my fps

it takes 80 percent of my cpu

[split parcel]

Yes, your games are tied to your account, not your launcher.

[minor horizon]

caaaap

[split parcel]

Sounds like a client side problem tbf

[tribal wyvern]

or something 50 idk

[humble rose]

You must be joking lmfao. I bought CoD modern warfare on that, something went wrong through which i couldn't play and they decided not to answer for 2 months on my help request shit

[tribal wyvern]

but like with background stuff it goes up to 80 usage

origin takes up a shit ton of cpu

[tribal wyvern]

no it ain't, no one likes origin, it's terrible

[frosty wyvern]

does anyone know if this bf 2042 will be made with the frostbite 3?

[quartz pond]

Because it is

[tribal wyvern]

frostbite 4

[frosty wyvern]

ty

[tribal wyvern]

so giving names to who you play as is wrong

i don't get your logic

[steep star]

it ruins immersiomn

[tribal wyvern]

bruh it does not, it increases it

[steep star]

what?

[tribal wyvern]

why would knowing you play as a real person ruin the immersio

[quartz pond]

How so?

[split parcel]

But soldiers have names in Battlefield V and it doesn't show or affect your gameplay in any way

[steep star]

lets get real bro nobody plays bfv

[tribal wyvern]

playing as someone with no name, no face, no identity does not increase the immersion

[humble rose]

Everyone in your game will pick out of the same characters with the same name. Good luck fighting a army of Karl, Karl, Jeff and Heinz and that time 10

[split parcel]

People do play BFV, but that's beside the point.

[turbid arrow]

Bad company squad as specialists

[tribal wyvern]

knowing it's a real soldier, someone with a name, with a face, with an identity, maybe even a family to go home to

that's immersion

[tribal wyvern]

except a lot of people do

[quartz pond]

Multiple people playing with the same face and name ruins immersion

[steep star]

that was a joke

[humble rose]

Then they should have added story mode 🤡

[hazy vector]

which is completely unnecessary in battlefield

[tribal wyvern]

dude i can't deal with this man

people are still bitching about specialists

[hazy vector]

you don't need to know your lad is called boris to drive a tank

[tribal wyvern]

unbelieveable

first it was gadgts and abilities

then when they clarify what they really do

[steep star]

i just want to know why they decided to give them names and personalities

[turbid arrow]

Like they do in bf4?

[tribal wyvern]

it's the names they bitch about

LIKE WHAT

[mighty sigil]

will ea desktop be updating over time or will i have to download a new seperate version of it later on

[flint jay]

I ain't had any issues with it and I like the look of it, its simple as hell

[split parcel]

I can promise y'all that we'll look back at this controversy post-2042 release and laugh at how silly this whole thing was

[tribal wyvern]

i sure will

people find anything to bitch about man

i swear

no one was bitching about the specialist names before

then after they clarify how tehe specialists work

now it's the names that are the issue

it's laughable

[split parcel]

Right?

[steep star]

i dont care about the names

i care about their appearances

[tribal wyvern]

you were bitching about them for 5 minutes don't act dumb

[split parcel]

"Soldiers having names will ruin my immersion!"
*Doesn't even see the names in-game*

[tribal wyvern]

you said you wanted a nameless grunt

[tribal wyvern]

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

ahhhhhh

[mighty sigil]

anyone knwo

[tribal wyvern]

update over time

dw

[mighty sigil]

ok good

[steep star]

i am going to piss myself over you

[agile mountain]

wtf r u talking about

[humble rose]

It doesn't look bad but had so many mechanical issues it left a very bad taste in my mouth. For some reason doesn't update in the background, multiple times had issues launching the game, customer support is horrible. That is the personal experience I had with it at least

[split parcel]

The launcher will update automatically whenever you open it up, assuming there's an update available. Just like any other launcher.

[flint jay]

Where is the cash

[tribal wyvern]

i was replying to someone else

[mighty sigil]

alright thanks

[agile mountain]

ik but what is this replacing, ea desktop ?

what is that

[flint jay]

Fair enough, I just never experienced any of that so I can't relate

[tribal wyvern]

ea desktop is origin's replacement

it's currently in open beta and still in development however a lot of peopel report it working much better than origin

including me

[split parcel]

EA Desktop is the new launcher that's eventually going to replace Origin.

[tribal wyvern]

if you download it, all of the games that are installed via origin will eb detected by it

all origin shortcuts will use ea desktop instead

games launch a lot faster, less resources used in the background, higher fps

better ui

[humble rose]

Yeah that is fair, tbh it is probably not horrible if only the customer support didn't say "We react in 48 hours" and then get a reply after two months after which i can finally play the game i bought

[tribal wyvern]

a lot better htan origin however it's not completely finished, it's in beta

if there's a feature missing or something gone wrong don't get pissed and say it's trash

simply drop sme feedback since they can fix it

[split parcel]

But that's what gamers do

[tribal wyvern]

well i don't

i simply get pissed

[mighty sigil]

most of my games arent even on ea desktop but i assume thats because its in beta

[humble rose]

Lmfao sure sure

[tribal wyvern]

but i don't call it trash when i know it's unfinished

i call it trash when it's finished and devs knew about the issue

[humble rose]

if it ain't finished, it shouldn't be released

you are the type of person who is fine with alpha games and shit

[tribal wyvern]

yes that is one of the things

[split parcel]

"Don’t fret. We’re adding titles to the beta all the time. If your game isn’t here, it will be soon. Any games missing from the beta are still available to play on Origin."
It says at the bottom of the collection page.

[tribal wyvern]

i am fine cuz i get a taste of what's to come and what i don't like i can help change

i like playtesting shit

i playtested closed stuff in the past

[mighty sigil]

i dont see the problem, what are you guys arguing about

[humble rose]

"it will be good later bro, trust me"
five years later
"Just a bit more time bro"

[split parcel]

*Star Citizen flashbacks*

[tribal wyvern]

idk myself i guess people don't like me saying it's good cuz it's unfinished

[copper fulcrum]

NMS Flash-backs

[humble rose]

Excactly

[tribal wyvern]

idk why people are always pissed at me when i say ea desktop is good and i recommend people to download it

like each time someone's got something to say about it

[split parcel]

Although, late 2021 and onward is when we're going to see some real progress being made in Star Citizen. Seriously

[mighty sigil]

i mean from the gameplay trailer it doesnt seem bad, I am not making any judgements at all until beta

[arctic grove]

Cuz you're pushing people to go against their opinion sometimes

[flint jay]

Games take long if you keep being pissy about it, what ends up happening is cyberpunk

[tribal wyvern]

i was talking about ea desktop

as for the game, i say it looks good but ik it can be better

and it's in pre alpha, what we saw anyway

[mighty sigil]

oh lol

[agile mountain]

@split parcel@tribal wyvern thanks guys

[turbid arrow]

To be fair star citizen already has made a buttload of progress

[tribal wyvern]

no problem, lemme know how it goes

[mighty sigil]

i just downloaded ea desktop, its looks better then origin honestly. i still prefer steam

[tribal wyvern]

i prefer steam too but if i'm buying a battlefield game or a game that's made by EA i'm buying it on ea desktop

[copper fulcrum]

People only like steam and only steam, if it's any other launcher it's garbage, shit, trash and a waste of time and space

Origin, EA Desktop and Epic are okay to use and honestly EA Desktop and Origin give me less shit than STEAM does.

[tribal wyvern]

cuz bf 2042 on steam is just gonna open origin

[split parcel]

Yeah! I'm actually having fun playing it, although I wish there were a few more gameplay loops to keep me interested for more than an hour at a time.

[tribal wyvern]

dude FAX

FAX

[split parcel]

GOG is where it's at though, fr

Best launcher

[tribal wyvern]

i still prefer steam but if it's a hcoice between steam opening origin and a vanilla single launcher that works aswell as steam would if it didn't open a second launcher i'm going for the latter

[copper fulcrum]

It's this Valve/Steam loyalty that just smells worse than a college dorm room after a football game

[tribal wyvern]

i only own battlefield games on origin man

[copper fulcrum]

Same

[tribal wyvern]

just bf3 and bf4

nothing else

[mighty sigil]

im sure later on it will open ea desktop right?

[flint jay]

Same

[tribal wyvern]

well bf 1942 too

but that's dug in deep

[copper fulcrum]

Owning it on Steam is a waste of time except for... PROFILE BACKGROUNDS

[flint jay]

and Sims 4 which I got free

[tribal wyvern]

if you have it installed it might

[mighty sigil]

yea

[split parcel]

Imagine not having every single Battlefield game

[tribal wyvern]

do you own any bf games or ea games on steam

if you do you can try it now

[mighty sigil]

i own bf5 on steam

[tribal wyvern]

that too

like literally nothing else

and i was plannign to buy bf 2042 on steam

but i remembered that steam opens origin anyway

[humble rose]

Epic store is... fine? I mean I've had my issues with it but in general it works ok.

[arctic grove]

maybe the devs will anyhow support origin and ea desktop better?...

[tribal wyvern]

which means it's a waste of fucking time to buy it on steam if it'll jut use origin anwyay

[humble rose]

Not that many games but hey, the free ones are neat

[tribal wyvern]

and i didn't want it on origin

[hazy vector]

Epic games is for getting free games and nothing else

[split parcel]

Epic Games Store doesn't even have a wishlist

[somber nebula]

it doesnt it opens on the background and when you close the game it closes aswell

[tribal wyvern]

so at first i thought i'm buying it on steam cuz i like seeing it on there

[mighty sigil]

epic store has one purpose and one purpose only, free games every week, i dont use it for anything else

[tribal wyvern]

yeah but the problem is it's running in the backgorund while you're playing

that's the issue

[somber nebula]

why

[tribal wyvern]

origin eats your resources in the background

[flint jay]

Buy on origin, add non-steam game to library

[tribal wyvern]

while you're playing it'll fuck over your performance

[flint jay]

Ez clap

[tribal wyvern]

at least it does for me

[somber nebula]

not for me

[humble rose]

My performance is fine with origin open

[copper fulcrum]

EPIC is totally fine, I haven't experienced a single problem except for the lack of a cart

[tribal wyvern]

but then someone showedm e ea desktop, i downloded it, and i knew i had to pre order bf 2042 on ea desktop rather than steam

[hazy vector]

right now origin uses 0.2% of my CPU

[arctic grove]

That depends on CPU

[tribal wyvern]

i've yet to pre order it so i'm kind of lucky on that

[hazy vector]

while bf is running

[tribal wyvern]

well on my cpu it fucks over my performance

[turbid arrow]

I drop in a few patches between and it surprises me everytime 😂 the dynamic event they had going on got me playing a lot but yeah, missing those addicting loops

[tribal wyvern]

ea desktop doesn't

[humble rose]

Don't pre order at all you clown

[copper fulcrum]

B-B-B-But the Steam Achievements and Profile Pictures and backgrounds!!!!!

[mighty sigil]

im waiting until seeing beta to buy it or not

[tribal wyvern]

i don't really care for any of that shit

i'm just tryna play, not earn achievements and pfp's

[copper fulcrum]

Considering 2042 was the top selling game on Steam globally...

[tribal wyvern]

besides i will never change my pfp

then buy it on steam

[arctic grove]

Whoa actually? That's great

[split parcel]

They're going to add in the event again for further testing

[copper fulcrum]

It WAS I guess it isn't anymore lol

[tribal wyvern]

but like i find it extremely stupid to buy the game on steam if you don't care about the achievements and pfp's and shit

[arctic grove]

Lol

[tribal wyvern]

if you don't care, buy it on ea desktop

if you care, buy it on steam

[arctic grove]

Already did

[fair summit]

Gone for a day and the salesman still wants me to get it. 😆

[tribal wyvern]

i prefer steam over any other launcher, but with bf games on pc i've always used origin

BUT NOW

[humble rose]

it is a huge joke

[tribal wyvern]

i'm using ea desktop

[tribal wyvern]

bf 2042 isn't a huge joke mate

[humble rose]

Pre ordering is

[tribal wyvern]

man let them do what they want

[formal spruce]

Can someone explain why Ultimate Edition says it's for PS5 Only?

[tribal wyvern]

it's not your money anyway

[tribal wyvern]

i'm pre ordering myself

[humble rose]

I mean bf 2042 looks nice, i'm probably gonna buy it. Pre ordering is just a huuuuge joke and waste of money

[tribal wyvern]

but i'm holding off till i get my controller

[copper fulcrum]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/850376380822323230/852380371798458388/unknown.png

[turbid arrow]

Might give it a spin once again in that case, is that with Crusader coming too?

[tribal wyvern]

to not spend 180 bucks back to back

[tribal wyvern]

how is pre ordering a huge joke if you're gonna buy it anyway

[somber nebula]

battlefield v is consistently on the top 10

[tribal wyvern]

pre ordering is just paying earlier

and getting it as soon as it releases with extra bonuses

[copper fulcrum]

V is a good game

[tribal wyvern]

i don't get how that can be bad

[humble rose]

I like to point towards a beautiful game called Cyberpunk

[tribal wyvern]

historically it's not, gameplay it's ehhhhhh

half good half bad imo

[lofty relic]

My grandma always used to say; ”when life gives you lemons, make a discord account called Lemon64k and yell your opinion at everyone until they agree”

[hazy vector]

because as shows with cyberpunk, the game can be shit

[humble rose]

LMFAO

[tribal wyvern]

yeah but i mean you can cancel your pre order can't you

[copper fulcrum]

Here's the thing CDPR didn't really have a good track record to begin with other than fucking Witcher lol

[tribal wyvern]

i'm sure ash ell canceling if we got a cyberpunk situation

[tribal wyvern]

that's tru

[hazy vector]

might as well not pay in the first place then

[split parcel]

I don't think so, but I'm not sure. I didn't hear them mention a specific date for the Xenothreat, just that they were looking to add it back in again.

[tribal wyvern]

i don't recall them being famous other than that

[tribal wyvern]

that's your choice

oh wait

WAIT WAIT

HOLD ON

I REALIZED SOMETHING

[copper fulcrum]

WHAT!

OMFG

[tribal wyvern]

but the platform i'm pre ordering on does not let you pay earlier

it doesn't charge you until a week before the game's launch

[copper fulcrum]

lel

[tribal wyvern]

ea desktop's policy says that pre orders can be canceled at any time before 1 week before the game's launch

[split parcel]

Pre-order game, play beta early, cancel order

[tribal wyvern]

and that you won't be charged till 1 week before launch if you haven't canceled

[mighty sigil]

if i buy on steam then i launch the game on steam it will also launch ea desktop right? bc i own bf5 on steam but I can also just launch it from origin, there really isnt a difference, unless u like ea's or steams overlay more or less

[tribal wyvern]

yeah exactly

basically free early beta access

[copper fulcrum]

It'll likely launch Origin or whatever

[arctic grove]

Whoa, genius

[turbid arrow]

Yes

[tribal wyvern]

ok so you got bf5 on steam

[mighty sigil]

yes i do

[arctic grove]

Hi

[tribal wyvern]

tryl aunching bf5 on steam

and see if it opens ea desktop

if it opesn origin, try opening ea desktop beforehand, origin should not open then

[mighty sigil]

ok but ea desktop isnt reconizing bf5 as a game yet

i will try anyway

[tribal wyvern]

very intereesting

weird

it detects bf3 and bf4

but not bf5

[mighty sigil]

yea its still in beta

[tribal wyvern]

how come it detects old games but not new ones

[mighty sigil]

im trying know

bnow

now

[split parcel]

Have you tried turning it off and on again?

[tribal wyvern]

that's a bit odd they'd add old games before new games

[split parcel]

I have BFV on EA Desktop for what it's worth

[arctic grove]

but if I buy bf5 on ea desktop and then origin gets deleted, all of my games from both origin and ea desktop will be on ea desktop?

[copper fulcrum]

nice

[tribal wyvern]

yes

[split parcel]

As long as EA has added them to EA Desktop, yes.
The games are tied to your account, not the launcher.

[mighty sigil]

im launching the game now

[tribal wyvern]

yeah

[mighty sigil]

i will see what launcher launched

[tribal wyvern]

if the games are not showing up on ea desktop it doesn't mean you don't own them anymore

it just means you cannot play them through ea desktop

bf 2042 is getting added day one on ea desktop though

[copper fulcrum]

All launchers are fine

[tribal wyvern]

so like if you're buying it on there dw

if your'e buying it on steam but want to use ea desktop as the 2nd launcher rather than origin that's brilliant

[arctic grove]

so you can launch origin games with ea desktop rn?

[rigid hawk]

yall having fun in the private alpha?

Im having alot of fun

[tribal wyvern]

yes

[mighty sigil]

why does it not let me post pics on hear

[tribal wyvern]

[turbid arrow]

Lets squad up 😎

[rigid hawk]

[tribal wyvern]

when it comes out of beta, yes

[candid nimbus]

I just wanna get the robot DOGGO in the trailer

[tribal wyvern]

that's the only reason it hasn't yet

cuz it's in beta

[arctic grove]

so then origin simply gets deleted?

[tepid atlas]

[tribal wyvern]

probably drops support

[tepid atlas]

except uplay

[tribal wyvern]

ea dekstop like completely replaces it once it's on your system

like your entire friends list

library layout

everything

the only issue is games that arent' added to ea desktop won't appear yet

but like that's the only thing i

[still vault]

EA Desktop still lacks features. "Move games" is not there for example. Command line arguments also not.

[arctic grove]

superb, so soon I will have a seperate lancher for every game there is

[tribal wyvern]

well it's in beta

and some games lack support

[copper fulcrum]

I actually haven't used UPlay ever lol

[still vault]

You said it replaces everything, I'm just creating some more realistic expectations.

[tribal wyvern]

oh

by everything i meant the friends list, the library layout, what you own, the shortcuts etc

[copper fulcrum]

You're not meeting my unrealistic expectations :(

[tribal wyvern]

cuz that it does

i forgot about the move games thing

i never really knew that was a thing on origin

[mighty sigil]

wdym by moving games

[tribal wyvern]

so mistake on my part

[tribal wyvern]

i guess moving them from a directory to another

[mighty sigil]

ok

[split parcel]

Until you find the glorious GOG launcher

[tribal wyvern]

that's rarely ever used really

like why would you move directory of your games

you installed them on that directory

why move

oh wait

nvm
