battlefield-2042

[opal compass]

Caspian Border 24/7

[tribal wyvern]

without any optimization at all, config a mess (no settings optimized) and eveyrthing ultra mine runs at 60 fps

[gritty flower]

you think the prices are good?

[tribal wyvern]

but with fr33thy's config everything runs over 130 fps

sometimes hitting 200

@cosmic swallowyour cpu's locked which means you can't oc

i got a few tips and tricks and some tweaks to get the most out of your cpu even when you can't oc it

if you're interested let me know and i'll dm u

[opal compass]

overclucking

[gritty flower]

nvm

[tribal wyvern]

the hellò

[gritty flower]

didn't read that

[tribal wyvern]

i couldn't send that message

oh cuz you deleted it

bro i got scared, thought i got muted or smth

[eager dust]

waittttt no way noshahr canals is a map you dont like? bro thats unfortunate it was like imo the really amazing close quarter fighting map in battlefield. but yeah man damavand peak the moment where you need to fall down from the mountain, that was so memorable and exciting. also snipers camping up top hitting people on bottom what a blast man

[eager dust]

tbh i dont really care as long as they deliver a good game.

[glacial lance]

Looks like mine avg fps on this CPU, but on last birthday I got i5 10400F which is damn good for gaming

[arctic grove]

Cluckin Bell from GTA San Andreas

[tribal wyvern]

like you can unpark your cpu cores, use process lasso to optimize your power plan and the game you're playing, increase your turbo ratio for a bit of minor overclocking and some other stuff

[eager dust]

as long as im satisfied they can charge whatever for the game

[tribal wyvern]

but i bet bf 2042 will run on your cpu man

the games have always been MAD optimized

[gritty flower]

not bf1

[tribal wyvern]

plus with 128 players if the game ain't optimized who playing it?

[cosmic swallow]

Sure

[tribal wyvern]

nope, bf1 was indeed optimized

[cosmic swallow]

BF1 was very well optimized

[tribal wyvern]

bf5 is what's unoptimized, even then though it runs at 95 fps on ultra for me

[lofty relic]

I think it's because I sucked as infantry and there were a lot of shotguns on that map I feel... haha. Definitely Damavand Peak though, lots of memories there

[cosmic swallow]

Looked better than 1 and still ran very well

[tribal wyvern]

like even when they're not optimized they run well lmao

that's the frostbite engine that does that i bet

[cosmic swallow]

BF5 lagged a lot more than 1 and required more work, but I think I managed to get it to work decently at like mid settings or so

Or mid-high

[tribal wyvern]

i don't own it on pc so i can't really say

but i saw a benchmark of this dude cranking it all up

with my same setup

and it ran at 95 fps

[eager dust]

yeah i get that, it was mostly a shotgun map cause of the container section, you just had to like run through containers with a shotgun for kills

[tribal wyvern]

sooooooo i'm going with that

[crimson wasp]

Wake Island 2042 or Riot!

[eager dust]

BRO ITS COMING FOR SURE

[glacial lance]

Wake Island yes!

[arctic grove]

Wake Island was in which BF?

[lofty relic]

Haha yep. Even still, I do hope the container section on that BF2042 map will be fun, especially since they can move around and stuff

[lofty relic]

Almost all

[opal compass]

overclucking

[crimson wasp]

every bf after BF2 except BF1

[arctic grove]

Oh ok

[crimson wasp]

wait no

excluding Bad companies too!

[lofty relic]

Was it in Hardline?

[opal compass]

whatline?

[crimson wasp]

nah not in hardline, forgot that game existed tbh

[lofty relic]

I wish I could too

[eager dust]

i wonder how that will work, it definitely adds a lot of dynamic to the map, like just think about all the possibilities man, definitely a good addition. i wish all maps try to have a unique character that make them really memorable.

[hazy vector]

hardline doesn't exist. neither does heroes

[crimson wasp]

[eager dust]

just out of curiosity, do people still play hardline?

[lofty relic]

I think they will, and I hope so

Peak strategy is jumping into a container, wait for it to move behind the enemies and flank

[crimson wasp]

i think there's like 2 servers

🤔

not sure

[lofty relic]

I think that's 2 too many

[bleak nebula]

sounds about right

[eager dust]

also kind of counters camping i guess, cause the moment you camp a container moves and your cover is exposed

[eager dust]

oh no

hopefully 2 full servers and not empty

[lofty relic]

Haha yep

[crimson wasp]

2 full servers*

there's more than 2 in total

but they're just empty

anyone can login to battlelog though and check

[eager dust]

dunno if i should go back to it, kind of dont wanna waste time installing to just uninstall it after a match but also kinda curious how it really was. i didnt play it a lot when it came out, i just didnt like it at the time. i wonder if the feeling stayed the same after all this time

[lofty relic]

You deserve better

[eager dust]

hahah

[opal compass]

41 people in steam are playing hardline

[glacial lance]

Wish for Hardline 2

[hazy vector]

wish hardline would flatline

[mighty holly]

Battlefield heroes best game

[eager dust]

i wish like in 3 or 4 years we get a battlefield bad company 3 like that will be the best move to do imo

[lofty relic]

Anyway lunch time, good talk glad I got a lot of work done

[glacial lance]

You can literally find them on one server

[opal compass]

yep

[eager dust]

ey man have a good one, glad that we had a nice talk. see you later bro

[hazy vector]

Dice is terrified of BC2 as they don't know why we liked it

[eager dust]

haha the formula was i guess random

[hazy vector]

that's why they didn't want to make a second one, they didn't know what they did correctly

[opal compass]

ea official server.. swap em to Bf4. makes more sense

[eager dust]

yo this is sad

like actually

[crimson wasp]

i wasn't far away from my 2 server guess

also it's not a peak time for any battlefield title yet

[glacial lance]

If it's not bf4

[arctic grove]

How does Conquest even work in Hardline? 🤔

[eager dust]

there was choppers n such iirc

[opal compass]

meanwhile in bf4

[mighty holly]

Hot wire in battlefield hardline was good

[opal compass]

and the list is long

[eager dust]

this is a win. and dice should take notes on what they did right in bf3 and bf4 hopefully implemented those pros in 2042

[hazy vector]

i bet they don't know still. which is why they don't seem to make radical changes

[crimson wasp]

how's Battlefield 3

the best game ever

❤️

[glacial lance]

Bf4 now is like prepatch in wow

[eager dust]

i mean like this specialist thing is a new change and also that plus system. they sound kind of unique and new, gotta see how they play out in the real game.

[opal compass]

bf3

[hazy vector]

but it's not a radical change like from BF2 to 2142

[eager dust]

yeah i guess

[crimson wasp]

decent

[eager dust]

damn thats good

i want to play now

ill install it i guess

[crimson wasp]

that's not even all the servers that most likely are full

[opal compass]

MoH Warfighter

[hazy vector]

and i also just realised, 2142 didn't have jets either

[crimson wasp]

wheuw MoH

i played that like once

[eager dust]

DUUDE that game still has servers?

[eager dust]

they had freakin titans

[somber nebula]

I usually just play noshahr tdm in bf3

[glacial lance]

Why did you played that? Everyone bought this for bf beta access

[arctic grove]

Surprising given that MOH warfighter got like 4/10 scores

[somber nebula]

Or if theres a grand bazaar server ill play that

[eager dust]

noshahr tdm with a shotgun

ez

[somber nebula]

You can use any gun

[eager dust]

i know but shotgun is just fun

running through containers

[opal compass]

i was a medal of honor fan. Played the 2010 Version for a loooong time

[eager dust]

theres always someone there for you to get a kill

[opal compass]

and it was fun

Warfighter... let's not talk about that

[eager dust]

do you remember the medal of honor on ps1?

[arctic grove]

How was the multiplayer in it?

[opal compass]

2010? awesome

mix out of cod and bf

[somber nebula]

I have around 200 kills with the spas 12

[lavish shadow]

sick setup

[somber nebula]

With slugs obviously

[opal compass]

never played those..

[arctic grove]

I played the campaign back in 2011 or 2012, bugs stopped me from finishing the game

[grim bolt]

THXS

[opal compass]

the story in moh was awesome

and the title music

[arctic grove]

True

[opal compass]

Linkin Park all the way

[eager dust]

its such a good game, tho i think its only a good game in my eyes cause i played it when i was younger

[opal compass]

https://youtu.be/HigXVoGpU24 for 2010, that game looked siiiiiick

[glacial lance]

New in bf franchise you mean?

[eager dust]

yeah in battlefield we kind of didnt have those

[crimson wasp]

that game looked so good for 2010

[opal compass]

right? still love that game

my first personal owned fps game

and the story.. who ever made that,

[old egret]

I have to go to school in a minute

[opal compass]

"buzzin" to school eh

[glacial lance]

In mid of June?

[opal compass]

bee school

[old egret]

In Scotland we have an extra 3 weeks

This is my last week

[hazy vector]

school doesn't end for 4 more weeks here i think

[glacial lance]

Oh

[hazy vector]

24th of juli

[eager dust]

oh noooo you didnt just make that pun rn

[opal compass]

hahahahahaha

[old egret]

Well cya

[round garden]

Commander mode for 2042 would be cool with the huge maps

[eager dust]

agreed

and also a tablet or phone integration for commanders

to use it while they are taking a shit

[somber nebula]

Or being anywhere

[opal compass]

my galaxy tab s7 is ready

[somber nebula]

Cant stop playing battlefield

I wouldnt mind

[eager dust]

yep gotta grind them weapon progression man

[somber nebula]

Having an app for the commander mode on phones

[opal compass]

battlefield mobile shares progress with pc a leaker said

sry, had to do this

[hazy vector]

i want to be able to kill the commander again

[somber nebula]

What

[hazy vector]

what mobile?

[opal compass]

kappa

[somber nebula]

Theres a battlefield mobile game coming next year

[round garden]

Commander would fit perfectly because of how basically several little matches happen as they stated in the recent livestream

[somber nebula]

But its only for mobile

And its a separate game

From 2042

[arctic grove]

Wasn't there a BFBC2 mobile game?

[opal compass]

i meant that as a joke. Just to clarify this

[eager dust]

maps are huge man, i mean commander mode would definitely help out. like until our team reaches the point thats being captured by enemy, commander could basically helpout with airstrikes/emp or whatever cool abilities to hold them off a bit longer till teammates reach the point

[hazy vector]

iirc BC2 had this weird implementation of UAV's where you had to capture a point/console that sometimes was just out in the open

so nobody would use it

[round garden]

While commander is cool i dont think there is a need for it in the new bf

[opal compass]

commanding 32 players was pain, and now maybe 64? shehs. more stressful then playing as soldier

[karmic mirage]

@gaunt hedge

[eager dust]

its ok, we just need to find ways to fight hairloss due to stress

[round garden]

Because of how squads can call in vehicles and give commands

[opal compass]

haha, or people actually listen to the commander

[eager dust]

[hazy vector]

what? i've been a commander in 64 player matches of BF2. it wasn't hard

[opal compass]

64 on your team. not 32

[lavish shadow]

[hazy vector]

still, as long as the squads listen at least somewhat it's not horrid

[eager dust]

dude i cant even make a 4 man squad in bfv to go on a point that im pointing at how tf would i be able to make 64 people to go on my order

[round garden]

128 commander game only 24/7 xp farm

[split parcel]

I remember in the beginning when Commander was a new feature, and people would get happy when a Commander joined the server.

"Finally, a Commander! Let's gooo!"
and then getting praise for being a good Commander at the end of the match. It was a very rewarding feeling.

[eager dust]

^^^^

[hazy vector]

back then the only scanner was the UAV

no scanners for snipers and the like

or supply drops on chokepoints

instead of spamming ammo crates

[eager dust]

yo one more thing, i hope bf 2042's enemy detection is not like bfv. its just a massive spam of Q and yellow markers on map thats just wrong. mostly people even misclick q and make you think there are enemies when it clearly is just a false alarm

[split parcel]

I like the way it is in BFV.
Use the yellow pings as a sign of caution, but look for and focus on the red ones.

[eager dust]

huh is it like bf4?

[opal compass]

looks like it

[split parcel]

It sure beats shooting at Doritos

[eager dust]

thats awesome

dude that was a really good catch

[opal compass]

atleast close to it

[eager dust]

you really paused every frame to get that?

[opal compass]

ye

[split parcel]

I don't get what I'm supposed to see?

[arctic grove]

That's some next level dedication lol

[eager dust]

ye

[opal compass]

i circled it red or pointed it with arrows

[arctic grove]

Enemies

[opal compass]

and that spotting.. looked like if you aimed at the enemy and remove the crosshair (looking at something else) he gets spotted

thats how it looked in the trailer

[eager dust]

if it ends up like that, then its great

[split parcel]

Thank.

[opal compass]

so Q spam may not be a thing, but iam fine with aiming or looking at him and he gets spotted with that

[eager dust]

yeah just remove that Q spam from the game man. most annoying thing. specially when people just spam it non stop for no reason.

[opal compass]

and it does look like, if another squad spots the enemys, they just get marked on the map without the dot over the head

if your squad spots em, dorito time

[split parcel]

That sounds like a good feature

[opal compass]

just guessing

[hazy vector]

I mostly spot snipers and the like, not every player I see on a point

[cosmic swallow]

I spot everyone unless I know I can take them out easily

Like when someone is in my face and I have a shotgun

Or unless I'm panicking

[opal compass]

i shoot white spots on screen

[cosmic swallow]

Like when I'm ambushed

[split parcel]

I spot the ones that are out of my reach. Otherwise I'm trying to stay quiet not to give my position away

[hazy vector]

"reeeee flir is cheating" -me sometimes

[opal compass]

Heli Gunner

[split parcel]

I can't tell how many times I've found someone sitting in a bush because they shouted "RELOADING!" as loud as they can.

[round garden]

Mw 2019 in a nutshell

[hazy vector]

That's the dumbest thing. Like why is that even automatic when you're on your own

[split parcel]

I know, right

[hazy vector]

Like yeh mate, I'm sure the bunnies and butterflies appreciate knowing you're out of ammo

[eager dust]

its really great, i like this concept if it actually becomes a reality

[round garden]

Bunny comes hopping over with an m4

[opal compass]

they should hire me for ideas

[eager dust]

soon ea-dice staff?

[opal compass]

[round garden]

So the futuristic easterggs in bf4 are a callout to 2042?

[hazy vector]

Can't be to sure with those tactical pinguïns

[eager dust]

[hazy vector]

More a callback to 2142

[upbeat ice]

Hey

[eager dust]

hey bouns

[lucid goblet]

[upbeat ice]

Hey Carpo!!
Very nice shots from bf4
I love it

[cosmic swallow]

I wonder how much more destructible the village in Hourglass is compared to BF4

[hazy vector]

Supposedly, entirely

[cosmic swallow]

Cause BF4 had decent destruction in smaller buildings, but you could never 100% level them, and when the roofs fell it was like the Shanghai tower: scripted and not the best looking

[eager dust]

jackfrags said fully destructible village? so maybe you can floor down the whole village by the end of the match?

[cosmic swallow]

I wanna see how much they've improved on that. I also wanna see how many buildings you can enter in Hourglass' skyscraper section

[lucid goblet]

Thanks!! glad you enjoy them 😉

[upbeat ice]

[pastel forge]

Will BF2042 get crossplay?

[lucid goblet]

No concrete info on that yet.

[cosmic swallow]

I assume at least not with last gen consoles

PC + new gen consoles maaaybe

No confirmation doe

[west osprey]

i hope pc players can also play 64 player servers

and if they can implement cross play with old gen

[hazy vector]

why play on anything smaller than biggest?

[west osprey]

cause not everyone will be able to play on next gen

[cosmic swallow]

bigger = more expensive

[hazy vector]

and old gen would probably be having more issues as just player size, also severely lower graphics

[west osprey]

with pc part prices and no stock for next gen

u ever wonder how people will play next gen lol

[cosmic swallow]

Agreed

[west osprey]

i fear lot of us might be paired with bots for the first months

in some regions

[cosmic swallow]

Altho PC is not so much an issue cause of the godly optimization

[west osprey]

even than, some people may have to upgrade

and they cant get the parts

cause the prices

[cosmic swallow]

I have 1050 TI and i5 7400

[west osprey]

PC community in oceania is so dead

[cosmic swallow]

And I think I'll run it

[west osprey]

youll be fine but at 1080p, low

i think

[cosmic swallow]

Ye at least

[west osprey]

that i5 might be weak specailly for the large maps

[cosmic swallow]

maybe even low-mid or mid once I turbo boost

[west osprey]

but well have to see

[cosmic swallow]

Yea, open beta sometime soon

[west osprey]

i feel like the only reason DICE made bots option is because they know next gen stock issue isnt gonan be resolved for some time

on top of PC parts skyrocketed prices

[hazy vector]

bots wont solve that you know. they still have to be shown on your computer. regardless of if they're people or AI

[cosmic swallow]

Twice the players, double the matchmaking

Bots as an option are a necessity for high player count games

[hazy vector]

people will still pick which server they want to play

not f the game is popular

[west osprey]

its for people that already have the hardware

its so some regions dont die out

u dont want a new game to only die out in time

[hazy vector]

those regions can just play on other regions?

[west osprey]

or maybe at launch

ping

i dont wanna be playing on 100-200 lmao

thats why i hope theres crossplay with anything so some communites dont die out quickly

pc + next gen or last gen

[spark acorn]

You're not wrong.

[west osprey]

i got on bf4 and there was no server

[spark acorn]

Which is why I am just going to wait for BF2042... for a long time.

[west osprey]

no one playing battlefield in weekdays

[spark acorn]

Dude.

Exactly, no one plays during weekdays.

It's school week/work week.

[west osprey]

really hope theres crossplay

ye but some of us are on holidays from uni and stuff

[spark acorn]

Upcoming holiday in Victoria is coming, so there'll be players coming up soon.

[west osprey]

aii vic gang

melbourne?

[spark acorn]

VIC GANG

yeah melbourne suburbs

[west osprey]

ez ez

[spark acorn]

nice to see a fellow aussie

[west osprey]

ye pc community for battlefield in oceania is dogshit

[spark acorn]

oh yeah, there definitely will be crossplay for bf2042

[west osprey]

better be

[spark acorn]

oh its the fact that our population is small

compared to USA and europe

which makes our gaming population pretty low in comparison to other countries

[west osprey]

ye i agree but it just sucks, like i dont wanna ge this game just to play 30-50 bots

[spark acorn]

BF4 isn't a popular game here in Australia anymore sooooo yeah.

[west osprey]

most aussies play on playstation

[spark acorn]

Yeah.

[west osprey]

so having crossplay hugely helps pc players

[spark acorn]

Even on Xbox One actually.

I got a mate who occasionally plays on BF4 Xbox 1.

[west osprey]

ye tru

[spark acorn]

Yeah that's all I wish for.

Crossplay at launch for BF2042.

And i'm already getting tired of Modern Warfare, so I need a new modern game set in BF.

And that is 2042 but that's going to take ages.

!when

[azure lodge]

Battlefield 2042 Reveal Trailer: https://youtu.be/ASzOzrB-a9E
Battlefield 2042 Gameplay Trailer: https://youtu.be/WomAGoEh-Ss
EA Play Live time is an estimate.

[west osprey]

Things i want to see at EA Play

1. Information on crossplay or not
2. Showcase of destruction in bf 2042
3. Weapon Customization and Progression
4. Live Service Model + More info of battle pass and what we can expect in year 1 pass
5. Hazard Zone and DICE LA mode

[spark acorn]

That's what I want to see too as well.

[west osprey]

for 5. preferably one of the modes is free to play

[spark acorn]

If it is, we're going to see cheaters for sure.

Actually no, not really.

I've never encountered cheaters in Warzone.

[west osprey]

theres a lot of games that are f2p and have no cheating issues

warzone is bad now lmao

[knotty reef]

Last time I played battlefield was when I was 13 I am 19 now I only came back because of 2042 😉 xD Pre order on PS5 Gold Edition LOL

[west osprey]

but games like fortnite and valorant do well

[spark acorn]

Yeah I am just playing it for the sake of my sanity.

[spark acorn]

Good man, support the BF franchise.

[west osprey]

DONT PREORDER

[spark acorn]

Don't forget about Apex as well.

[west osprey]

ye

[hazy vector]

please no free to play in battlefield

[knotty reef]

Eh why not ? 😄

[west osprey]

literally just wait till ea play

not that far

[spark acorn]

What made you not want that?

[knotty reef]

we want it it keeps the games always full

[spark acorn]

It's his money, he can do what he wants.

[boreal widget]

'sup fuckos

[spark acorn]

Sup tunahead, can I eat you?

[west osprey]

tru but im just telling him lmao

[boreal widget]

go ahead

[hazy vector]

because then anyone and their dog can get in with no investment.

[boreal widget]

spread tuna legs

[west osprey]

wdym

[spark acorn]

https://tenor.com/view/canned-tuna-open-can-chicken-of-the-sea-gif-21987605

[boreal widget]

chicken...sea?

[spark acorn]

thats the brand

[boreal widget]

oooh

I thought we have actual sea chicken

[knotty reef]

like call of duty they made warzone free so the game modes are always high you can always find a matchmaking session.

[west osprey]

if there is a f2p mode, ill be seperate from conquest and breakthrough etc

[lofty relic]

It says "of the sea"

[spark acorn]

that would be you tuna

[boreal widget]

I don't have wings

[lofty relic]

Like pigeons are the "rats of the sky"

[west osprey]

isnt finding matchmaking session fast good lmao

[spark acorn]

but you have legs @boreal widget

[west osprey]

thats the whole reason to go f2p

[knotty reef]

But Battlefield in my opinion this year has won can't see Vanguard showing anything new copy and paste from WWII

[spark acorn]

well based on your pfp ofc

[boreal widget]

true dat

it is me irl

I can't see the ground

[spark acorn]

uhhh my guy, COD usually releases their trailers late in the year.

[west osprey]

i heard cod vanguard has cod waw hud

[spark acorn]

so we haven't really seen anything from cod 2021

[west osprey]

and some other things from waw

[boreal widget]

honestly, BF2042 might won this year

[knotty reef]

Cod is boring lol

[spark acorn]

yeah it is

[knotty reef]

BF2042 is the winner

[spark acorn]

same shit over and over again

[boreal widget]

people are pretty done with the ww2 stuff

[knotty reef]

not played BF in 7 years LOL

[west osprey]

chill my guy game hasnt even released lmao

it looks good but chill

[knotty reef]

Last game I played was Bad Company

[spark acorn]

Damn, you missed out a goldmine. Bad Company 2, unlucky.

[knotty reef]

Bad Company was 🔥

[boreal widget]

bad company story was lit

[west osprey]

i started playing bf1 so im pre new u could say

[boreal widget]

multiplayer... not so much due to the OP Gustav

[spark acorn]

I guess they skipped on Bad Company 3 for now because Bad company is literally their only good campaign battlefield titles.

[boreal widget]

but still fun nonetheless

[west osprey]

bad company 3 woulda been amazing

literally just bf 2042 but with a campaign

[hazy vector]

they skipped BC3 because they're to afraid to tarnish the brand

[west osprey]

same story if u wanted

[spark acorn]

DICE is on track on developing a BC3 in the future @west osprey

[boreal widget]

they probably dropped that since they don't wanna do a singleplayer anymore

[hazy vector]

no campaign

[arctic grove]

hello

[hazy vector]

they didn't do singleplayer in the beginning anyways

[spark acorn]

If this years battlefield succeeds, we'll see another BC entry at one point.

[arctic grove]

the project has been interrupted

[boreal widget]

yeah true dat @hazy vector

[knotty reef]

Oh I am wrong I also played Battlefield 3 on the Xbox 360 and Battlefield 4 on the PS4. back in 2011 and 2013 all the games after that were crap as fk

[boreal widget]

BF has never been about campaign from the start

[spark acorn]

Oh well, they still have a chance to develop the game at one point.

[knotty reef]

BF3 and BF4 and Bad Company were the only good ones

[boreal widget]

BF3 campagin was pretty good

[spark acorn]

Hey BF1 was fun and good, but I guess people never liked the historical setting :/

[west osprey]

not gonna lie, i was really dissapointed them to drop campaign and charge $70 for multiplayer only when games like halo infinite are going f2p with their multiplayers

[boreal widget]

I don't remember much about 4 tho

[hazy vector]

Because battlefield tries to not become a paid cosmetic fuckfest

[boreal widget]

I would take good multiplayer over campaign in a BF anyday

[spark acorn]

Well 1 game has microsoft on their side which has gamepass, so they're very pro consumer.

[knotty reef]

WTF was BF Hardline kms

[boreal widget]

basically cops vs robbers

it was good but it wasn't really a Battlefield game

[spark acorn]

EA's attempt to release a yearly BF title which failed miserably.

[west osprey]

still if u think about it as we go into the future, lot of publishers and devs are moving to free to play models

not saying battlefield should go f2p

[knotty reef]

We hope there anticheat is full server side then no one is messing like Blizzard probs be with crap denuvo xD

[hazy vector]

i hope they don't move to free to play in the future

i rather pay up front and have the lootbox shit be extra

[west osprey]

i do hope battlefield does offer something f2p maybe like hazard zone

[boreal widget]

nah not really

[hazy vector]

hazard zone is a map type , not a payment model

[west osprey]

halo infinite mtx are just microtransactions

there not even bad lmao

[glacial lance]

nah

[west osprey]

i mean

cosmetics

[boreal widget]

COD MW suffered because of Warzone mode is free to play

[glacial lance]

don't wanna see any f2p in bf

[spark acorn]

Hazard Zone is a mode, ok.

[knotty reef]

what is Year 1 Pass

[boreal widget]

don't want the same thing happen to BF2042

[glacial lance]

current play model is good enough

no matter it has or no campaign

[spark acorn]

MW is still thriving, just pretty shit how activision just decided to work on a new COD title instead of supporting it for another few years.

[knotty reef]

what did BF Devs take into account from all the other bf like in what way did they listen to the community

[hazy vector]

it's activisian and cod

did they ever support titles for longer than a year?

[spark acorn]

not like they listened to the community at all in BFV 🙄

[boreal widget]

@spark acorn I know, but everytime you launch MW now, they are pushing Warzone and Cold War into people face. MW has a couple of unreleased guns and Soap that is dying on the shelf 'cause of Warzone

[glacial lance]

warzone but it's f2p

[spark acorn]

that's the shit I am talking about

[hazy vector]

so that's one game out of like 15 CoD games

[glacial lance]

aha

[boreal widget]

Warzone is their cash cow so they fucked over COD MW

[gritty flower]

battlefield hardline is the best game

[boreal widget]

COD MW could have gone for another year or 2 but nah

[spark acorn]

Nah.

[hazy vector]

nah, gotta make the next zombie cashgrab

[boreal widget]

at least it give me more reasons to abandon that shit for 2042

[glacial lance]

cod is freaking cash cow which makes more money than wow for activision-blizzard

[hazy vector]

i've heard several people only buy cod for the zombie mode

doubt [x]

[boreal widget]

well ngl, their zombies have always been lit

[nova idol]

I hated modern warfare

[glacial lance]

zombie mode in cod is my favorite

[nova idol]

I also hate cold war

[hazy vector]

every player of WoW spends at least 10 bucks a month. plenty of CoD players don't spend a dime

[west osprey]

spec ops and zombies is the fun thing about cod, multiplayer is ass

there campaigns can also be pre fun

[boreal widget]

COD MW campaigns had some great moments

from classic to 2019

[glacial lance]

they pay for the game every year at least 60 bucks

[spark acorn]

Can't take your comments seriously with that profile pic.

[cosmic swallow]

lol

I can't unsee it now

What have you done

[boreal widget]

thank god that my pfp is intimidating af

[west osprey]

btw if ur looking to buy bf 2042 in aus, buy from amazon if u have prime

[cosmic swallow]

You're scaring me dude. IDK how I can type in this chat anymore

[spark acorn]

huh?

[west osprey]

game is only $69 for pc on amazon

[gritty flower]

60$ every game and new games comes out every year and don't forget about the skins they buy that's like 120$ for MW and CW

[boreal widget]

bow to the tuna

[spark acorn]

Really?

[nova idol]

Hot take: MW2019's campaign wasnt anything special

The same shit it always is

[west osprey]

ye $69 for amazon prime

[spark acorn]

I don't have a disc drive...

[mossy trellis]

Capital T smh no wonder you were upgraded to tuna2

[west osprey]

they give u activation code

for origin

[spark acorn]

Can I pre-order this?

[boreal widget]

@nova idol Their night op missions were quite unique to the franchise tho

[west osprey]

ye

[spark acorn]

BLAH

I dont want fucking origin

I WANT STEAM

[west osprey]

https://www.amazon.com.au/Electronic-Arts-Battlefield-2042-Windows/dp/B096XPWW5P/ref=sr_1_2?dchild=1&keywords=battlefield+2042&qid=1624275551&sr=8-2

[boreal widget]

I'll give you my steam

fart

[nova idol]

There have been missions in the dark before

[spark acorn]

F you TUNA

[knotty reef]

lets hope the came does not get cracked in 2 seconds

[nova idol]

Slap a night vision filter on it and wowie youve got something brand new

[knotty reef]

😭

[west osprey]

getting on steam literally adds to the drm like i like to have all my games on steam but i also rather save money lmao

[boreal widget]

@nova idol that is a really shallow take

[knotty reef]

there DRM should be blizzard LMAO full server side

[spark acorn]

will I be able to get this earlier than October 22?

[west osprey]

no this isnt the gold edition

gold edition users get 1 week early access

[spark acorn]

Thats what I want, not standard.

[nova idol]

Idk what you want because thats the truth

[spark acorn]

Don't hate on me bean.

[west osprey]

standard is the only thing amazon is selling rn rip

[gritty flower]

do you really think battlefield will be cracked that easily LMAO if it will be cracked then they have to make their own server wich will only those who cracked get to play on it so

[spark acorn]

But I want the gold edition.

[boreal widget]

"your opinion" FTFY

[west osprey]

im not hating i also want gold cause i dont wanna wait a week lmao

[spark acorn]

Guess i'll just buy a copy of the PS5 version for my little brother since I am giving him a PS5 for christmas @west osprey

[west osprey]

doesnt have preorder benefits

early access to open beta etc

[boreal widget]

[knotty reef]

CD keys seem to post codes like for 2$ near the time

[west osprey]

tru that

why tf is the gold edtion more expensive on cdkeys than normal store lmao

[knotty reef]

But I got gold edition direct for PSN store £89.99 RIP PS5

[nova idol]

How is the night mission any different than any other mission set at night

[gritty flower]

cdkeys isn't really something everyone should trust, they are just a ''Working As Intended website'' but doesn't make them trustworthy

[spark acorn]

You shouldn't be using that link here anyways.

[knotty reef]

nah I used them for years always got my stuff

[hazy vector]

why on earth would you buy a pre-order game from a key site?

like what

[knotty reef]

nah nah I did not buy I had to use PSN store lmao

[hazy vector]

if you want to cancel you have to fight with them as well

[spark acorn]

Ah ok.

[knotty reef]

lamoo remember when everyone ✋ 💦 over night vision on modern warfare 😉

[gritty flower]

then tell me how they got the keys and they sell it at so low prices

[west osprey]

i buy nearly all my games from different key sites and nothing has happened, so many people freak out

[knotty reef]

IDK they are not un legit as my code was fine I still have the game LOL

[west osprey]

they literally work

[spark acorn]

They work but they're very sus.

[west osprey]

got bf1 from g2a and bfv from cdkeys

[boreal widget]

@nova idol the house raid missions were unique since it focus more on the intensity of a house clearing ops more than shoot the fuck out of everything. Also it's one of the few missions where no music is involved to intensify the stress. Combined that with a place that is filled with both civilians and terrorist sympathizers force you to choose whether or not to drop maybe the right target or take the hard way and blast everyone suspicious to minimize the risk.

[west osprey]

on launch

[spark acorn]

Like hearing it the first time makes it sound not g00d.

[spark acorn]

Best mission in COD MW

[knotty reef]

people think they are stolen

[west osprey]

its all fine, i have bought so much stuff at this point i dont even care

[spark acorn]

My guy, do you have a PC?

[west osprey]

ye

[spark acorn]

Add me on steam we can play sometimes.

[boreal widget]

@spark acorn yeah me think also

[west osprey]

aight sure

[boreal widget]

reminds me a lot of some R6 games

[spark acorn]

check my pfp for steam link

[knotty reef]

will 2042 be crossplay ?

[spark acorn]

Yeah I want more of these missions, they're good.

[west osprey]

i sent request

[spark acorn]

No information yet, but we're most likely going to get it.

[gritty flower]

¨battlefield hardline is the best game

[boreal widget]

it's great when the devs focus more on the intensity, more substance over style for these missions. I'm sick of the Michael Bay stick in military games' campagin

[knotty reef]

also will we be able to actually jump out of the fighter jet RPG the enemy an then jump back into the plane or was that just all a joke

[boreal widget]

I'm all for Michale Bay shit in multiplayer tho

[arctic grove]

i forgot how good battlefield 4’s ost is

[lucid goblet]

@knotty reef please refrain from posting links to keysites, it's against server rules.

[spark acorn]

^

[knotty reef]

Ok sorry bro

[nova idol]

MW2019's campaign was the same shit as every other cod lol

[boreal widget]

you do you

[gritty flower]

Yeah ofc people have done it since bf3 and bf4

[spark acorn]

I cant take you seriously with that profile pic 😆

[nova idol]

America and co. fighting russians and terrorists and russian terrorists

Oh boy how many times have I seen this now?

[nova idol]

You already said that

[knotty reef]

Basically the director of Mission Impossible is the Director of 2042

[spark acorn]

Funny how your anger towards MW campaign made me play the campaign rn hahaha.

[polar ruin]

and for the love of god fix the bug that you hold the fire button but no bullets shoots out its bad on bfv id pray its not in bf42

[nova idol]

Okay lol

You do you but im just saying acting like its anything special is dumb

[boreal widget]

@nova idol well if you actually read what I wrote, the house raid actually forced you to kill British citizens who might or might not be sympathizer for the terrorists that attacked London. Which is what made it unique

[nova idol]

Just because it has good graphics

[knotty reef]

2042 when you get the Christmas n00bs lmao so easy to kill

[nova idol]

Im talking about the campaign as a whole

[spark acorn]

Your opinion, honestly it's one of the best COD campaigns I have played in ages.

[boreal widget]

and I said that it had its good moments

[polar ruin]

0-0

[spark acorn]

Ez

[boreal widget]

not the ENTIRE campaign was good

[nova idol]

I disagree

[polar ruin]

i see a tuna

[knotty reef]

did you pre order ?

[boreal widget]

yep that's me

[polar ruin]

feesh

[boreal widget]

[knotty reef]

I got my 12 people to pre order the game lol

[spark acorn]

Soon, I want to see EA Play Live first.

[polar ruin]

i pat fishy

[boreal widget]

don't pat

[knotty reef]

what is EA Play live

[boreal widget]

I'll fucking bite your toes

[polar ruin]

[nova idol]

Infinite Warfare had an okay campaign because it was actually something new and unlike bo3 its campaign actually made sense

[polar ruin]

i just patted

[boreal widget]

Imma lay eggs on your ankle

[spark acorn]

Game information on all of EA's games

You'll be seeing even more information on Battlefield, such as an actual gameplay/demo, what they'll reveal, open beta date info released.

[boreal widget]

well more gamplay info will be there on 22nd July

[spark acorn]

For now, we gotta wait another BLOODY MONTH

[azure lodge]

Battlefield 2042 Reveal Trailer: https://youtu.be/ASzOzrB-a9E
Battlefield 2042 Gameplay Trailer: https://youtu.be/WomAGoEh-Ss
EA Play Live time is an estimate.

[polar ruin]

5230 east fig ave

[knotty reef]

ahhhh when would the OBR be aval

[polar ruin]

lol

[boreal widget]

my guess is that beta will be 1 month after EA play

or a bit earlier

[polar ruin]

pats fish

[boreal widget]

stop patting me, fucko

[spark acorn]

Hard guess, would be August or September for Open Beta.

[boreal widget]

I can bite

[cosmic swallow]

Man this summer is full of gaming news and stuff

[arctic grove]

!countdown

[spark acorn]

But i'd go with September because that's their usual month to release their open beta.

[arctic grove]

!when

[knotty reef]

dude I still waiting on MY PS5 LMAO 🤦‍♂️

[arctic grove]

hi

[spark acorn]

!when

[azure lodge]

Battlefield 2042 Reveal Trailer: https://youtu.be/ASzOzrB-a9E
Battlefield 2042 Gameplay Trailer: https://youtu.be/WomAGoEh-Ss
EA Play Live time is an estimate.

[cosmic swallow]

Yea most likely more or less

[polar ruin]

i dont mind tuna

[knotty reef]

I order 2042 I don't want it to go out of stock on PSN store

[spark acorn]

Yeah, it's shit during a global chip shortage 😦

[cosmic swallow]

How can it go out of stock on PSN

Digital games never go out of stock

[arctic grove]

ye

[boreal widget]

lots of games to burry myself with this year

[polar ruin]

patting the fishy

[boreal widget]

Imma play Hotwheels Unleash while waiting for BF

[polar ruin]

best feesh

[cosmic swallow]

I will pre order only after I play the beta

[boreal widget]

@polar ruin

[polar ruin]

best tuna

[cosmic swallow]

I wanna know how well it'll run on my PC

[boreal widget]

BF games are usually very well optimized

[polar ruin]

best patted fish

[nova idol]

I wanna get chivalry 2

[cosmic swallow]

my PC should handle BF2042, but IDK how well. maybe it'll be best if I just wait til I get a PS5 some day

[polar ruin]

[boreal widget]

a medium rig would be good enough

[nova idol]

The beta was fun as hell

[knotty reef]

will 2042 run on a new engine ??

[boreal widget]

@polar ruin where tf do you get all these gif

[sterile veldt]

does anyone play bf4

[cosmic swallow]

It will have a new physics engine at least

[cosmic swallow]

I do

[sterile veldt]

like asia?

[boreal widget]

@sterile veldt I think all of us play BF4

[sterile veldt]

damn

[cosmic swallow]

No, I'm a Europe player

[sterile veldt]

ahh

i bought the game a week ago

[boreal widget]

nice

[knotty reef]

I play BF4 back in 2013 lmao

[sterile veldt]

it looked empty

[boreal widget]

welcome to the club

[sterile veldt]

thank

[polar ruin]

well i playing on multiple game and on different guild/clans from bf to gw2 to mhw

[boreal widget]

well BF4 server is packed in EU

[cosmic swallow]

I've been seeing a lot of players

[polar ruin]

[boreal widget]

not so sure about Asia tho

[sterile veldt]

shitty admins

[boreal widget]

oh yeah I figure

[cosmic swallow]

Yea, most servers are Russian, German, American, French or English

[cosmic swallow]

Why?

What's wrong with the admins

[sterile veldt]

also how do you get the coyote sight

[knotty reef]

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/E3cl7irXMAEM5Uh?format=jpg&name=4096x4096 is this worth getting

[sterile veldt]

i got kicked for going off topic

[boreal widget]

VIP is allowed to use nades and explosives @cosmic swallow

[polar ruin]

[cosmic swallow]

Not really IMO

[boreal widget]

if you are non VIP and use nades, it's insta kick

[cosmic swallow]

It's like 90 dollars or smth

or 100

[boreal widget]

I've seen some really shitty rules for BF4

[polar ruin]

[cosmic swallow]

In my country, the ultimate edition costs over 100 dollars

That's not worth it

[sterile veldt]

guys? coyote sight?

how do you get em

[boreal widget]

uh, just play the game dude

just use the gun

[cosmic swallow]

Wdym? Like, on the servers where they're prohibited?

[sterile veldt]

i use the aek

[cosmic swallow]

I rarely play operation Locker

[polar ruin]

[boreal widget]

you will get coyote sights faster with Chinese weapons

the AEK? you will get the Kobra sight fast

and it's just as good

[sterile veldt]

yeah i got kobra

[tranquil arch]

Just buy the standard edition, if you preorder any edition of 2042 you get early access to the game.

[sterile veldt]

when is it releasing btw

[tranquil arch]

October

[cosmic swallow]

oct 22

[sterile veldt]

perfect!

my birthday's on spet 9

[tranquil arch]

Beta is gonna be somewhere around the late summer months

[sterile veldt]

*sept

[lucid goblet]

or oct 15th for early access

[arctic grove]

https://youtu.be/AwksTfJVgTQ Free nostalgia hit

[boreal widget]

@cosmic swallow so basically, they basically turn BF4 servers into a "pay to win" model. If you give money to the admin, you are allowed to use mortar, nades and shit. If you don't, you can't use any of that. Basically making the entire non VIP team at the mercy of the rule

[tranquil arch]

Like august or even september

[sterile veldt]

no way

[cosmic swallow]

Gotcha

[knotty reef]

Anyone here remember RAW Kickstarter was so hyped of that game LMAO

[sterile veldt]

that fast?

[boreal widget]

@cosmic swallow Some even prohibit you from going into vehicles

[tranquil arch]

For the beta? Probably @sterile veldt

[sterile veldt]

yeah

[tranquil arch]

Not the official release no way lmao

[sterile veldt]

i was going to buy battlefield 1

[boreal widget]

until we hear words from DICE or EA themselves, I don't trust any of dat

[sterile veldt]

but nah imma save it for 2042

[boreal widget]

save it bro

[tranquil arch]

Bf1 is fun its almost like a cod shooter

But yeah save

[cosmic swallow]

Imagine labeling your gorgeous game build as Pre-Alpha 5 months away from release.
I wonder what made them call it not just Alpha, but PRE-Alpha

[boreal widget]

they probably have a lot of textures to fix

or sth

[sterile veldt]

i would much rather see the game fully complete

[cosmic swallow]

Have any of the Battlefield gameplay trailers looked better than release?

[boreal widget]

um

[arctic grove]

“Portable Nukes?”
“Wait there’s room for two more, where the hell are the other two?!”

[boreal widget]

I don't think so...?

most BF gameplay trailers are very close the release

[sterile veldt]

also is the map in trailer dawnbreaker?

[spark acorn]

Not the reveal trailer though

[cosmic swallow]

Anyway, big hype for BF2042

[sterile veldt]

it looks like it

[boreal widget]

@spark acorn well yeah lol

[cosmic swallow]

There's sand everywhere

And it's called Hourglass

[spark acorn]

Oh I ruined the joke, hang on.

[arctic grove]

The trailer was probably made 2 months before release

[sterile veldt]

no like the tornado one

[boreal widget]

I hate sand. It gets everywhere.

[spark acorn]

Not the BFV reveal trailer though.

[pearl ridge]

I'm not getting any hype for 2042 until I know everything about the gameplay

[cosmic swallow]

Oh that, it looks more like siege of Shanghai to me

[spark acorn]

It was an actual gameplay trailer too as well since it showed the HUD and shit.

[boreal widget]

@spark acorn I'm still confuse about wtf is going with that trailer

[sterile veldt]

seige of shangai at night probably

[pearl ridge]

Because what they showed me so far is very much a bunch of dumb fanservice.

[boreal widget]

you legit can't tell what is going on

[spark acorn]

They tried to make the audience excited, but it went opposite.

At least in BF2042 you saw what is happening.

[boreal widget]

yeah true

[arctic grove]

Who's ready for the wingsuit?

[spark acorn]

Sundance specialist? yes.

although i'll be maining casper

[sterile veldt]

all this youtubers trying to hide that they have 5000 hours in game

[arctic grove]

sundanese specialist

[cosmic swallow]

I only recall like, 2 or 3 moments where they do community stunts or smth

Like the C4 jeep and rendezook

[boreal widget]

why do I feel like the name Sundance means that the specialist is going to be Japanese...?

[sterile veldt]

who cares

[shell glacier]

I hope Battlefield 2042 has a bruh button

[spark acorn]

I saw a leak, it's a african american guy.

[sterile veldt]

it also probably doesnt have a story mode

[boreal widget]

oh that's nice

[pearl ridge]

Like the fact that specialists are a thing at all is enough to rob me of hype.

[shell glacier]

Not probably, definitely

[cosmic swallow]

Wdym?

[spark acorn]

Give it a chance, by actually waiting for more info.

[pine roost]

Why does everyone hate specialists so much

[arctic grove]

They’re doing a top notch job of specialists

[boreal widget]

I'm white but I like making my characters black a lot of the time in games.

[sterile veldt]

what are specialists

?

[spark acorn]

Having specialists instead of the usual traditional 4 classes.

[shell glacier]

New thing bad

[pearl ridge]

There is literally nothing about those fuckers that interests me

[spark acorn]

I'm surprised you still haven't known about it.

[pearl ridge]

And everything about them is anti-battlefield.

[cosmic swallow]

Specialists each give you one extra unique ability to choose from for that specific specialist, that's it

[shell glacier]

But no I get the concern for specialists and why people might be worried a little

[spark acorn]

How is it 'anti-battlefield'? @pearl ridge

[sterile veldt]

i just saw the reveal trailer on the livestream

[pearl ridge]

BFV was already pushing it with Elites and those were entirely cosmetic

[desert ridge]

You do realise specialists are just the original classes just with a new gadget and no weapon restrictions its nothing to cry about

[spark acorn]

https://www.ea.com/ea-play-live

[pearl ridge]

But having the whole-ass army be made up of these assholes?

[arctic grove]

You won’t have people sacrificing a role for a certain gun now which is fantastic

[spark acorn]

wrong link ffs

[spark acorn]

https://www.kotaku.com.au/2021/06/heres-a-look-at-battlefield-2042s-first-4-specialists/

[cosmic swallow]

Specialists do differ tho. Like, only a specific specialist can use the wingsuit

[shell glacier]

If Battlefield 2042 doesn't have a "bruh" button I will not be purchasing the game smh 😔

[pearl ridge]

EXACTLY

[spark acorn]

We're getting 6 more specialists I believe at launch day @sterile veldt

[sterile veldt]

oh

is it ike in game purchase

[spark acorn]

What makes you hate them?

[boreal widget]

we get 10 in total I think

[cosmic swallow]

So? What's the issue? You can make the wingsuiter a medic or an engineer or a sniper no problem

[shell glacier]

Nah they should be free

[spark acorn]

that

[pearl ridge]

Oh I don't know, maybe having every fucking moron out there have some fancy-ass special ability with the ability to use any gun ever is a bad idea

[boreal widget]

@shell glacier All of the specialists are free. Some the cosmetics for them are not

[cosmic swallow]

Primariy weapons and many gadgets like C4 or RPGs are not tied to the specialist

[sterile veldt]

ig it's like heroes from battlefront 2

[spark acorn]

[pearl ridge]

Battlefront 2 fucking sucked.

[arctic grove]

How is that bad

[sterile veldt]

yeah i got it for free on epic

[lofty relic]

Why are you always so mad Tano

[sterile veldt]

had fun with friends

[spark acorn]

Bad idea how?

[shell glacier]

Literally lol

[cosmic swallow]

How is it a bad idea? Is it good when somebody picks reckon only for the sniper rifle and doesn't use the gadgets?

[boreal widget]

eh, IDK, having a shit ton of people run Assault just for AR and they don't even heal is already bad

[pearl ridge]

You really want all the snipers to have grapple hooks and rocket launchers?

[spark acorn]

I'll bet you Tano you'll change your mind when you actually get the game.

And then you're going to regret it.

[cosmic swallow]

Grappling hook is a specialist thing IIRC

Not for everyone, I think

[shell glacier]

I just hope reviving is actually encouraged for medic players here

[pearl ridge]

And the specialists can equip anything

[spark acorn]

Yes, it's a webster mackay thing.

[lofty relic]

Recons in BF4 has C4, people hated that. Don't hear much about it these days

[cosmic swallow]

What's wrong with a medic with a rocket launcher?

[spark acorn]

ikr

[cosmic swallow]

Or a sniper with an RPG

[pearl ridge]

Do I need to spell it out for you

[arctic grove]

I’m not arguing with you because you’re not using common sense and logic, you’re making things seem out of proportion because specialists are new and it scares you, case closed

[solar marten]

Wdym people dont revive or heal?

[cosmic swallow]

Yes

[arctic grove]

No not really, they said in the developer overview

[pearl ridge]

Don't you case closed me you pint sized shit

[boreal widget]

From what I hear, vehicles are going to be way more deadly so having more RPG launchers will be good to counter them out

[cosmic swallow]

There will be way MORE vehicles now

[dense snow]

i just want ucav then it will be fine

[pearl ridge]

Oh yeah because that makes me feel so much better...

[cosmic swallow]

128 players + civillian vehicles driveable = a LOT more vehicles

[spark acorn]

Guy is not wrong though, you're just hating because of you judging the game already without full knowledge of the specialists.

[cosmic swallow]

• vehicle dropoffs

[pearl ridge]

Sounds to me like it's just going to be a miserable experience for both infantry and vehicles.

[spark acorn]

HAHAHAHAHAHA

[hazy vector]

afaik the specialists just get one unique item and that's it. the rest is all open to be anything you want

[pearl ridge]

You don't solve balance problems by making everybody overpowered, that's not how it works.

[lofty relic]

No point arguing with Tano tbh, every time I see him in here he's majorly pissed about something

[hazy vector]

overpowered?

[boreal widget]

if everybody is OP, no one is

[cosmic swallow]

How is it overpowered?

[arctic grove]

How does it make everyone overpowered lol smh bye

[lofty relic]

I don't see the point of your overly negative speculation. You could just wait for the game

[hazy vector]

how. it'll self balance somewhat and people will find new ways to not die

[cosmic swallow]

Anyone can be an engineer in regular BF

[pearl ridge]

And those engineers can't carry fucking sniper rifles or medkits.

[hazy vector]

if anything everyone having rockets will create even balsier flyers

[pearl ridge]

Because it's called class balance

[arctic grove]

Don't play the game ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[boreal widget]

I remember having 6 engineer fixing the fuck out of a tank and making it nearly invincible

[hazy vector]

there are no distinct classes anymore it seems. but they're a bit vague about it so far

[pearl ridge]

Battlefield's literally been built around classes since the beginning

[cosmic swallow]

Sniper rifles would make them useless and medkits would take up a slot, which means no RPG or no specialist exclusive gadget

[pearl ridge]

The idea to just get rid of them is literally COD tier

[spark acorn]

Oh look, we got a very conservative veteran here.

[cosmic swallow]

And now you get more freedom with them. You can still be a medic or sniper or a hybrid. You can't be EVERYTHING at once

[arctic grove]

Specialists are class based, kind of like in Apex Legends

[lucid goblet]

Lets change subject shall we? and less of the arguing....

[cosmic swallow]

You can't be a medic with a blowtorch and RPG

[boreal widget]

@hazy vector well no, there still is going to be healer, support, recon... depends on the open gadget that you choose. The specialist gadget will further amplify your role or make up for the weakness that your role might have

[pearl ridge]

You can't give everybody total freedom, it just results in even worse teamwork

Who's going to carry ammo over a rocket?

Fucking nobody.

[hazy vector]

actually i think it's just the weapons that might be open to everyone

[boreal widget]

until we all run out of rockets

[pearl ridge]

Classes are literally supposed to work together

[lofty relic]

[pearl ridge]

Their restrictions make them reliant upon one another

[spark acorn]

Same with specialists, you just don't know it yet.

[cosmic swallow]

They confirmed that some gadgets are available to everyone like C4 and RPGs IIRC

[hazy vector]

hrm

[bleak nebula]

best specialist

[cosmic swallow]

You're still restricted to only 2 gadgets

[pearl ridge]

And then there's having these guys with bloody grapple hooks and wingsuits and shit

So they can just abandon their squads even faster

[boreal widget]

sniping them out of the sky will be more fun then

[cosmic swallow]

Why would a support in previous games bring ammo over a mortar, C4 or claymores @pearl ridge

Or other gadgets

[pearl ridge]

V solved this by forcing them to carry some fucking ammo.

[lofty relic]

You seem pretty dead set on hating this new system, so much so you won't be able to enjoy the game. Might be time to move on, because they're not changing it because of your feedback

[boreal widget]

idk... maybe because certain gadgets work better in certain situations...?

[hazy vector]

i sometimes swap out the healing kit/defib for underbarel launchers if i dont feel like healing. but i mostly play with those two

[pearl ridge]

Same with medics, who got forced to actually do their jobs.

[cosmic swallow]

Fair point

I haven't played V much myself

[pearl ridge]

Instead of having them all wandering around spamming grenades everywhere, they actually revive people.

Though SMGs isn't really a good fit for a medic.

[fossil trench]

Because money

[pearl ridge]

A lot of people say that they have to get up close, I say that they have to be at mid-range so they can keep themselves safe and move up when necessary.

[sterile veldt]

as it should be

[cosmic swallow]

Cause that is amazing

[boreal widget]

nice

[sterile veldt]

especially with video games

[fossil trench]

Every game company copies what is successful

[pearl ridge]

If the medics are forced to fight at close range while everyone else is behind them, they're just going to die first and then nobody's reviving

[fossil trench]

So yeah, goodbye OG battlefield

[lofty relic]

NakeyJakey has a series about that on youtube

[boreal widget]

thought I was the only one who noticed that

[pearl ridge]

I'm fine with swapping sights, I do not care for extended mags.

[boreal widget]

it's been a long time since I play warface

[cosmic swallow]

Warface? Surely you meant Crysis

[pearl ridge]

Those dickheads with auto-pistols are already annoying enough without them farting out fifty rounds at me.

[arctic grove]

Crysis did that before Warface

[fossil trench]

Isn’t Warface one of those f2p games?

[knotty reef]

when EA launches new games are there many bugs or just issues ?

[cosmic swallow]

Extended mags are better for cqc

[boreal widget]

extended mags will gimp your movement speed, ADS and other stuff anyway like other games

[spark acorn]

Everybody copies everyone dude. Originality is dead.

[hazy vector]

you already don't have to be a healer. you can play assault without any healing items

it already became less class specific when they merged the 6 classes into 4

[spark acorn]

We just improve on an existing product @brittle flame

[pearl ridge]

Good thing you don't need ADS with an auto-pistol

Because. You know. Short range.

[arctic grove]

Crysis and Warface are from the same developer too

[still vault]

@brittle flame No sexual content in chat.

[boreal widget]

@pearl ridge good thing there is sth called an smg

[spark acorn]

Hi carbonic.

[cosmic swallow]

Or suppressive fire. Need mags for that too

[pearl ridge]

And that SMG is a primary, not some pansy-ass secondary.

[boreal widget]

really...? I don't know that...

[pearl ridge]

The G18 and its ilk are just stupid, they're basically primaries with smaller ammo pools.

[boreal widget]

it's not really a gameplay trailer for me, more of an in game cinematic trailer

the real gameplay trailer will be on 22nd July

where we'll be able to see a much more detail look of everything

[fossil trench]

I’m not buying BF2042 until I have a PS5

[spark acorn]

Come on dude, you're basing the trailer on youtube compression, ffs.

You haven't seen the full thing.

[knotty reef]

will 2042 will you be going in squads ?

[boreal widget]

@brittle flame chances are that the sand also block a lot of the visual

[spark acorn]

A squad of 4 members.
