Didn’t bother watching the EA Play spotlight
It was trash
News only 22 July
Thanks!
Ahhhhh
Let down
So they just talked shit for a while and teased typical
Its not like this was supposed to be a big news reveal lol
Not to mention the fact that we got several key confirmations during this
222 Thursday?
Yea sad 😞
22, two thursdays from now
2 long ass weeks
Will clould base stuff be with the frostbite or its separate
just dont think of fun things
however it will take 2 months to launch the game
it makes the time go by slower
I accept that it's the beta am waiting for
To decide whether to get it or not
then we will get trailers after that
waiting for the destruction trailer
mostly
na
Thank gawd
to much cheaters on dice hand
oh yeah, i don't know when the beta will come but it's not even close to happening
Augustish time
Yes
That I can deal with once it's a set date and not speculation
Beta?
already have defined data
For beta?
No
Then what you mean
Initial release date: October 22, 2021
there is no revealed beta date" yet
watch everybody shoots there rockets in the tornado and the torando throws it back at ya
Pog

Time: <t:1626973200:R>
wasn't that 22 days like yesterday
Thankfully not 😂
Time passes slower when there are actual games u are waiting to release the past 2 years been bad for games imo so they went quick
Facts
Good bot
uuuuuuuuuuuu
Back to titanfall with curved bullets
How well do you think a gtx 1660 ti will hold up against 2042?
My best guess you can run it at 1080p with occasional fps drops.
😐
a bit of stutter
Tornado joins lobby and your game dies
my attention is on how much intense the game is gonna be on CPU with all the new physics and the 128 players.
8 cores may be the maximum requirement?
I honestly dont know I'm a console guy I'm waiting on money from the feds to buy my pc
Gulf of oman would be a great remaster because of the city in the background
@young wharf #set-colors
?
My Dodge charger 1970 will give you power of family in battlefield 2042
We add that back?
You can change your name color
Ah
How do I do that?
Thanks
Battlefield 2042 will be 50 gb on series x and Xbox one I doubt it will be that small how big do you think it will be
That’s what it says on the store btw
kinda wasted me time today for that ea live tbh
not much where been told
I know nvidia is official gfx card partner and Xbox is official console but who is official toilet paper partner for bf2042?
Yeah, even without the leaks we could've guessed that DICE LA was working on remastered maps
So what are they supposed to show us on the 22nd? Hazard Zone?
Prolly some gameplay of core and of hazard zone
Have any of you guys’ agents gotten any good offers from clans trying to recruit you?
Operation Metro remastered in BF2042
Xbox official console means nothing lol. It’s just a marketing deal. Toilet paper on the other hand is very serious business
24/7 METRO | ALL WEAPONS | 128 PLAYERS | 1000 TICKETS
I'm tired of that map tbh, for me its only good for leveling up guns
I hope they don't do metro again
I wouldn't mind a map having an area like that, but not an entire map of just that
Wouldn't do this game justice
Yeah on Locker you have a bit of flanking options
I believe that Fort de Vaux is BF1’s Metro
Its more like BF1's Operation Locker
If they wanna do a claustrophobic map like that, lets do a new setting
Maybe like a supercarrier or something?
All I know is I can hear the shouting and the echo from explosions when I close my eyes and think of those maps. 
What a about two supercarriers? One crashed onto another.
So, I like Metro and Operation Locker, but both seems a bit repetitive.
I love a good chaotic soldier based close quaters map like operation Locker
the moment the round started there was already 3 explosions
depends how many other maps there are
I play hardcore so the moment a round started someone was kicked for team killing
still hoping for El Alamein.
I dont mind which maps they remaster, I just hope theres lots from the games I havent played
Is golmuds railway not a fan favourite?
It is
Its pretty meh imo
I think the same. Its too flat, and I say this as a vehicle player.
no
Yeah there isnt enough going on
its alright but there is a lot of stuff above it
the only part I like about golmud is how much destruction is visible
if that makes sense
i mean the good news is this seems to only be in this 3rd mode
so chances are most people will go to the 128 player all out warfare mode
but also in general if you look at 1 and 5, theres alot less community run servers and DICE seems aware with how BF4 online got to be real bad because of how much community run servers with dumb rules took up more space than they should
Finally someone who appreciates Golmud
Golmud is like classical music
Why
I feel like it lacks structures and is TOO open
It's a vehicle based map
80% is open and like 20% of it is buildings.
4 tanks spawn for gods sake
I find maps like those boring
golmud has 5 tanks per team
El Alemein has 5 tanks in main, and 1-2 tanks on each of the 3 flags
One of my favourites is silk road too
The thing if don't like it's that most shitt* cod streamers will go to battlefield and start making videos of "OP WEAPONG OMG" 😫
How many vehicles will one team have then?
Idk
50+
There's no way it will be the same amount as BF4
Every one needs a vehicle
It has to be doubled or tripled.
per class?
I thought you meant that you want there to be multiple tank variants for tanks
That's what you said
Not how much tanks the whole team will have
Id think they would make you rely on the specialist abilities to travel across the map mostly
Nah the airdrop system means that'll prob be the way
only 2 have movement abilities
I mean at the same time as soon as points are capped people are gonna spawn at those points and fight in between so most of the time people wont need alot of vehicles
yeah Id rather not have to kill myself to go from a to b
theyre will probably be a lot of transports
I mean yes but most of the time your sniped by the time you get to b xD
thats either unlucky as hell or some unfortunate game sense
Id think they would do like have 3 quads per point or smt simular
makes sense to me!! explains the tight lips on the mode
cause hazard zone and battle hub are likely separate downloads
Also think they might have optimised it as much as possible in terms of game size
Bc some studios dont seem to bother with that as much
The rest of family bites will join after
Just found out my pc can display 4K so I might buy battlefield 2042 after I used my ps5 2042 game for a while
Nice

BF2042 sus
play live?
Went really bad. They announced that they were instituting pay per bullet service model
As well as cross play between bf and apex
I don’t want to be banned 🥺
imagine a map with or on a big bridge and as you fight it slowly breaks apart
BANNED
Yeah everyone going to be squaded up and I’m going to be with the stragglers
🥸
Do I get to play as the bridge and if so what are my special moves?
ultra instinct crumble attack

Tom Henderson's leak about redacted mode is true
It will feature classic maps of the past
I wouldn’t mind playing battlefield v maps with a m4 and better graphics
Yes but how will Minecraft fit into it? That’s the major question on@my mind
How'd you know it's true?

Go watch ea play spotlight
GM of ripple effect studios said redacted mode will feature classic maps of the past
@royal trail We meet again my pasta dish. Shall I eat you?
they joked around about commander aswell but that aint true
They didn't joke about the classic maps
!when
Clip??
Watch levelcapgaming and other YouTubers vids
No thank you
What'd you mean no thank you
yeah old fav maps returning in 2042 is about the only news in the stream
@royal trail Have you seen Garfield lately? Where has he gone?

wait
its so hot in my apartment that i cant sleep. i keep drinking cold water till the point that i almost vomit but it doesnt help
sleep out side man
same here in scotland
Turn on ac
23 degrees
USA vs Russia they both use no pats to fight their feud
Hmmmm that reminds me of……FAMILY
STOP
Given the gameplay reveal their voice actors probably required 100,000.00 a sentence
It was good 😩
FOR WHAT
We’ll they need the $ cause they all got FAM to support
Air, ground, water classes.
And the variations of said vehicles.
no chance there are 10 boats
Imagine using boats

Bro this game better live up to the advertising
Its looking great so far
I am a little scared of how much this game is being hyped right now
It's not that hyped
i want them to increase air space so you can have dogfights among the clouds
From what I've seen most of it was decent but it wasn't like ground breaking amazing
Cyberpunk hype was ground-breaking amazing
They made it out to be a insane crazy best game ever
They said they were working on this game 3 years
Just about everyone's talking about it. Not only has the franchise seen a huge revival in the last month, but other franchises (cough Call of Duty) have practically adopted it as their own
And also Hazard Zone is explicitly not a Battle Royale
you can start seeing ypur trees go wild before the tornados appear
But it still seems to have obvious downsides, some people don't like the AI, some are worried about the grappling hook, some are worried about the specialist system being trash
Seems kinda br'ish
Just with bigger squads maybe and bigger lobbies then 129
Like if a game is advertised as ground-breaking those worries wouldn't really be there because it would all seem like the perfect game
128
some people are worried about corona vaccine. who cares about some people
Need it to fly abroad so jab jab jab
I was just making the point that people were so excited for cyberpunk that developers got death threats to release the game
They want the game so bad
This ain't like this
Hopefully
People want the game but like it's not crazy to that degree
And those are the people who are recognizing the hype train. There's a lot of people so blinded by hype that pretty much expect this to be a perfect game, that will be likely sorely disappointed by an overall likely good game
Bfv was looking to be a great game look what happened
I wonder what their plan was. They kill the dev and somehow the game is finished by a corpse?
Every game is marketed to be a "great game", thats marketing
or it could be terrible
My point is how the game turned out not marketing
but what about bfv?
They didn't put out that BFV trailer with the intent of it being poorly received, despite how it was actually received
!when
(Not to mention the fact that BFV's reveal trailer is a bit of an outlier)
Yeah but there's a difference between marketing a game that makes it look like it's perfect and amazing and answering every question about it, saying how this will be amazing, new graphics, promising insane amazing things and literally just showing the game which is what they're doing
I don't know how they watched that and said "wow this is great!"
literally
The content itself even if bad is good
Huge maps
Sandbox type gameplay
AI bot games
Brand new mode
Apparently they did, and thus its an outlier as easily the most poorly received individual trailer in the franchise
if they can add all previous weapons and maps
itd be awesome
Even if they fuck up this game somehow and it under-delivers, how can it with all this
It would have to mean the game wasn't tested properly, that it was a mess
Also, for most arguments against 2042 right now, theres some kind of counter to it. AI in multiplayer, for example, has been done well in other DICE properties (namely Battlefront), and likely will only improve
Cyberpunk was a royal fuck up due to management
Sandbox maps and huge playercounts can only carry you so far
Cyberpunk was the result of years and years of overinflated hype
you can always spot bots though and its always a bummer when you find out you wasted your time on a bot
The only thing I think will bring this game down is specialists, I reckon that people will not like them and there might be issues with either balancing their abilities or something along those lines, that or they will just suck ass
tbh if you made me pick between having to wait on XX/64 Players screen and having to play with bots, id pick playing with bots
Specialists are really more a replacement of BF4's perks system if my understanding of it is correct
Not really
at all
no
And plus gameplay looks pretty good
Yes, actually, as far as we can tell. We aren't dealing with BO3 specialists here
more like the gadgets you found randomly on BF1 and BF5
And those gadgets are pretty much nothing more than class-specific gadgets, considering each specialist falls under one of the four core classes
As much as I'd like to agree, we didn't see much yet.
Each specialist has a passive perk, this is basic stuff
Each specialist also has their own gadget, yes.
Vehicle combat looks good so far, can't speak on gunplay though
Battlefield 4 and 2042 may be strong in gadgets but nothing is stronger then family
nobody will know how shit or good the balancing is until we play
which could make or break the game
From the 3 bullets shown in the gameplay trailer the shooting looks satisfying as hell
Yeah we had gunplay shown when someone is already damaged while on a zip-line, the other someone was being shot through dust and smoke coming off of pillars
Could, but the chances of it being utterly shit after being in development for this long is VERY poor
dom no that's suicide
Dude, theres A TON of new shit
Specialists, non class locked weapons, 128 players
The jet may be behind me, but he doesn't have family!
its going to be a giant balancing act
is the shit shit doe
wait thats a sticker, wth
DICE does logic when it comes to balance in games if family strong
Yeah but you know they test these games right
Balance in BF has been literally all over the place
including the newest games
Yeah, a lot is changing with this title. We're all gonna play it in the end anyways. I know I am.
Penguins are stronger but nothing BEATS FAMILY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
AS VAL beats family
yeah im not playing BF4 for another 8 years
in-laws have entered the chat
Yeah well I guess we'll see
As I said I think balance might be a issue
BFV for the most part had decent balance, metas are hardly metas. If it’s the same team working on balance, I’d say there’s a good chance of it working out largely the same. No guarantees, but I think the chances of it being good are much higher than it being bad
FAMILY 4EVER!!!!!!!
But overall I doubt that even though factoring in what happened with BF4 launch and how some previous launches might have been bad they probably learnt their lesson
I'm just saying, if they struggle to balance games like 1 and V which barely changed up the mold compared to 2042, then the balance could be REALLY bad at launch
With a game this size, I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s not perfect at launch…honestly, it usually never is perfectly balanced at launch anyways

as is the nature of battlefield
I just want the balance to be like post launch BF4, not every weapon is viable, but every class has its upsides and downsides
I don't want everyone running around with the same gun
agreed
BF4 in my experience is pretty much everyone running around with the same 3 guns
ACE is better than the AEK lol
rarely happens
maybe just learn to get good at BF4
Oh yeah that’s the other one I see a lot of lol
Im not even that bad at the game…granted im no god, but I do see those two particularly a lot
Right, not trying to really say much otherwise
I wasn't calling you bad, I was calling the AEK andy's bad
Don’t get me wrong, I know there are other viable options. I know I kinda came off that way ecks dee
As long as the balancing isnt like BF Vietnam
I usually main the MPX and Saiga
I find the VAL to be lacking in ammo pretty bad
and the recoil is a bit all over the place
Loud boot sounds in this game ?
Anti-cheat? Any news?
I swear, we need news on anti-cheat on the 22nd. It takes literally seconds to mention it.
They better add anti-cheats for BF 2042 or my head is gonna explode if they don’t
Anti cheat forget that family will save you from cheats
Uncle dom
Family will protect you from cheaters
FAMILY is strtonger than Anti-Cheat
I just hope that this game attachment unlocking system isn't so hard like BF4s
When the PC requirement gonna come out?. Anyone know?
I think in time around beta
Around September then?
yeah probably
they havent said when exactly but plan on doing a closed alpha soon-ish
so i would assume the big proper beta comes closer to launch
BF4 is the same 3-4 weapons. @radiant prism you were right in the first place.
Don't let the idiots push you around, push back. The balance in BF4 is shot.
yo
it also doesnt help that most in bf4 feels the same.
Long distance scope on my m4 then I’ll change on the go
They should make another ww1 game
They should never touch a historical setting again
but ww1
There was just a ww1 game tho
Exactly
No
Yes
Do you want them to destroy bad company
Play Rising Storm 2, its basically BF Vietnam but good
How would they destroy it
By being EA
But EA wasn’t the EA it is today
It was
they were still buying developers, squeezing out 2 cash grabs, and then firing all of them
I'm a console peasant. No pc. =[
f
They’d find a way to ruin it the gaming community has changed
I enjoy it though
I mean yeah EA ruins everything
next dead space will be horrible
lol
I’m really hoping it won’t be tbh
Yeahhhhh like a 2142 sequel
remake
Donkey fart butt scratching nipples
crysis 1 had dynamic destruction right?
no
Model swapping and animations
no actual dynamic destruction
the only game I can think of thats even capable of real dynamic destruction is teardown
but that runs like shit and is voxel based
so
I did that with 6 family stones
yeah i know
Dude I see you here every day 



Of course! You can always count on family to be here for you 
No 2143
I want bf in space
Naval warfare on titan, open maps on mars, the massive ice spikes on callisto, plenty of cool places
Doesn’t sound like 2042 content to me. Go to #battlefield-legacy-titles

2042 in space
"plot of season 7: world is too fucked. We goin to mars now"
battlefield but in space
Will battlefield 2042 has grand operations?
space battles
get to grive huge gunships
i hope titans from 2142 come into 2042
finna get fortnight robot dumped
on
I hope
I would think they would consider a form of operations game mode with 128 players
heres the thing: if this is a sequel to bf4 then titans should exist. So should half the stuff in 2142.
and its all just, weirdly absent
Probably not gonna have titans
Well the EU doesn't exist in 2042 so it's probably not a sequel/prequel
True but the eu could maybe reform
Probably not
yeah, 100 years is a long time
2042 is during the resource wars
How will the story work in BF2042?
All the characters seen have their arcs set up that they have to complete
Seasons will help tell the narrative
Resource wars with America vs. Russia
Kinda like how cod does story now
One wants to right their wrong from a past occasion. (Webster)
Like, in 100 years europe went from monarchs to liberal states to fascist occupation to split between liberals and communism to the European Union.
It could reform
The Ridley looking one wants to find her son inside the No-pats.
I think DICE put the 'EU collapsed' part as a hint that it's a reboot/ a new universe.
Imagine you can do secret easter eggs that help out on the story or get intel
Reasonably it would collapse in a resource war
thats actually cool
I think it may possibly tie into the 2142 story arc
It didn't say eu collapsed only disbanded
Still makes sense
also: if 2142 stuff wasnt out of place in bf4 then it wouldnt be out of place in 2042
if that's the case, then this would be a prequel
100 years earlier
I feel its going to be in between events of 4 and 2142
I mean, 2042 is somewhere in the middle of 2020 and 2142 lol
ur probably correct because 4 took place in 2020
bring back battle walkers with the same aesthetic as ranger
Not middle way before but it can effect the outcome in 2142

Yeah and a lot happened shortly after leading to 2042s events which could potentially lead to 2142s events so we could see a lot of lore around that
do u guys think they should do a 2142 remaster?
Yes
yes
yes but imagine the outcry. "BATTLEFIELD IS TRYING TO BE FORTNITE AND CALL OF DUTY!!"
i do not care about what reddit has to say
If coming out with another 2142 was smart I’d be a teacher at Princeton
2142 came before fortnite
People are already doing that in the cod community but yet they're switching sides
if gamers get in their own way their opinion should be discarded
Good. Redditurds don't have the right to make an opinion anyway
yea most of the battlefield games did
I forgot fortnite existed tbh
the only one that didn't come before fortnite was bfv
Most battle royale inspired stuff comes from H1Z1
minecraft and halo reach hunger games
True
But H1Z1 is where I think the formula for battle royale shooters really took off
it was just the first that was made by a company
Yeah that gave birth to pubg then fortnite and so on
but MC hunger games was far larger than h1z1
Just remember if a game has cosmetics and building mechanics it is automatically just like Fortnite (/s)
I guess BFV is a fornite clone then
i want them to go balls to the walls with the cosmetics, take the reactive idea from call of duty and just crank it to 11
if it doesnt have the same color pallet as fallout 3 its literally a cartoon
Battle royale was a concept that was way before hunger games or anything of that stuff lol
Was building even a good feature in BfV
in video games?
Lazer
Thanks
the dude with the backpack in the reveal trailer has the robot dog
In video games not as much. Tho some people link last man standing mode kn the bomber man series
1 - thats boris
2 - the dog is a squad call in
But really MC hunger games was the first iteration in gaming
Sorry I’m a modern freak
The idea for battle royale tho actually comes from the movie and book Battle Royale
True
i'm pretty sure that it's him because look at the midnight ultimate bundle
Which actually is a really great novel and film
it was either MC or Halo. I dont remember which did it first, though MC was by far more popular
MC did it first
what was that one really early br game
Halo got the shooter aspect of it
the culling or something
backpack dude and the bundle dude have the same wristpad
Culling was a little later
its just a skin for the dog. Dog isnt linked to any specialist
u sure?
DayZ is still considered battle royale in some sense
wait, which backpack dude, the canaidan?
More of a survival but I see what you mean
we don't know his name yet
the one with a facemask or without one?
but he got blown in the reveal trailer
Yeah it’s much more survival but it falls in the genre apparently
hot
Makes sense tho with the 1 life thing
i meant blown up lol
Lol
did he have a face mask or not? Cause 2 have backpacks
he doesn't
I don't see how it's a battle royale, especially with that there isn't a limit on groups, there isn't a objective or area you are pushed to, it's just survive in a sandbox
then thats Mackay. You can see the grappling gear and Canadian insignia on him.
That’ll be cool if bots weren’t specialist
Did they say anything interesting at ea play live today
oh, this chick. No thats the chick with the wingsuit.
no, look at 3:37
and pause
Personally I think that it's a bad move to open all guns to all classes
All they did was basically gives us a hint that we would see some maps from the older games @arctic grove
wingsuit lady is sundance
you know youtube has a timestamp feature right?
Who cares
yea i had problems
Useless
Yeah all the news will be on the 22nd
but yeah we dont know what he has. Midnight skin is certainly not him though they look nothing alike
Ight thanks anyways
No problem!
but look at his wristpad, they have the same one
Wristpad indicates squad lead?
i guess well just wait
i think its the squad lead call in tool
That's what I'm thinking
maybe. Could be like a pda you use to spawn tanks in
the guy has a radio backpack
it's gonna be a tablet
I know. This is a separate specialist with the same wrist tablet
a pda and tablet are basically the same
i thought that the dog would be a specialist ability
nah
thats totally a call in
i dont see how that being an ability would be balanced
Im pretty sure the midnight skin is Casper. He's the only specialist that fits the skin's sillouhette
I dont think that shows up on his model
i think it's the m5a3
yeeeeee'
or the 4v9
they did show him with the m5a3 with the drone next to him
Oh well then maybe
I dont think the items in the bundle are related to eachother.
there are a lot of things that people complain with this game that i dont get
Just similar aesthetic
they complain about only seven maps on launch day, but these maps are fucking huge
its also not only 7 maps
u ever seen a video game map thar's 2 miles long
People will always find something to bitch about
yes
that's*
Will bots leave when someone is matched/found 😅
yes
and the full price complaint
just get the last gen version
and put it in ur new gen
👏
When the game launches there is gonna be bugs and shit so expect tons of complaints
Not something new man
oh no im not suprised
if you only look for the bad you will never see the good
the bad gets you twitter likes and dopamine
fair
but its a big map right
i like hamada
ok
yeah, though not as big as Panzerstorm, Al Sundan, and Iwo Jima
hamada is a fraction of the size of hourglass
yeah where is the size comparison pic
and thats not even the biggest map
i lost it
i got it off a tiktok explaining the whole situation
point is poeple can't ever be satisfied
😩 big maps I can’t imagine yet>
I hope they don’t fuck it up
Hopefully there will be some decent destruction
I really hope
like i saw this video of a dude who got pissed because halo 3 on pc launched 12 hours earlier then it should've
about the destruction, i think it'll be really good
Bruh
because that was the pre-alpha, and it looks like its almost done
so i think that all they need to do is just work on destruction models
oh yeah, and people were complaining that they didn't see enough gunplay in the gameplay trailer
yeah
i get it, kind of
u would want to see multiple aspects of the game
but its also just a gameplay trailer
yep, plus we wait on july 22nd
we'll probably get more from what their gonna show then
yeah we will
They can’t fuck up this game as bad as BfV right?
time will tell
Why did they decide to do that now
sad battlefield developer noises
Petition to raid EA headquarters if this game fails
yup
steal their money
"cause they can't get enough"
i'm hoping dice will keep ea at bay with the microtransactions
If they destroy this game it would be equivalent to creating a very shiny beautiful vase, presenting it to the public, then throw it off a building
im glad we can customize them

yup, the next cyberpunk
even if the vase is shattered it can be rebuilt
DICE profits from microtransactions as much as ea.
True but wouldn’t the people lose interest by the time it’s rebuilt?
correct but i just have my fingers crossed
that they don't fuck it up
it still has players after being rebuilt
Well BF2042 has had a significantly better start so there's that at least
more likes that bfv's trailer in less than 2 hours
2042's trailer actually had music in it so that helped
they damn near killed bf4 will all that hype
server's were overflowing with players back on the game
On the other hand if this game is a huge success then the battlefield franchise is going places
it looks like 2042 is going to be a long runner
oh yeah
Also, I think people have been overstating the issue of the game launching buggy. Obviously there's always some bugs, but BF4 was the last game to have a particularly bad launch. Hardline, 1, and even V had mostly stable launches. Certainly nothing close to the level of 4 or 3
The only way they can truly injure the game is if they don’t add anti cheat and cross-play
yea
isn't crossplay still a problem
A bad launch is part of the tradition
i mean the fact that they arent adding it
wait WHAT
im sorry
i dont see why people would want crossplay other than to keep servers full in low pop areas
they aren’t adding it?
Not really. Sony can be iffy sometimes but if they'll allow it for CoD and Star Wars Squadrons then there's no reason it can't be done for 2042
i might be wording it wrong
They haven't discussed crossplay at all really, they haven't given any answer on it
Ah thank god
but that's cause for concern
I believe a dev said they'd answer the question later
yea my bad
I imagine we'll get an answer at EA Play
If there was cross play it would be different
Gamescom at the latest
Ps4 and Xbox one will be separated from ps5 and Xbox series X
Yeah this seems to be the most likely outcome to me
yea and less players so it wont kill ur last gen
Or maybe you can only play 64 player modes with last gen players
There is nothing technical to prevent cross platform, it is just up to the wim of Sony
If it is the outcome
as if the tornadoes are going to
Pretty much
I have no problem with that
Next gen and last gen likely won't have cross play at all
best part is, you'll always have a full server
I have a Series X so its not of much concern to me
As take BF4, the Xbox 360 and PS3 only had 24 players and Xbox one and PS4 had 64 players and there was no cross gen play
I mean cross play is becoming something more in demand no?
my xbox won't last 5 minutes trying to run either
BF4 had no cross-play period
did you guys see someone leaked the bf2042 lobby menu
oh yea, if u have a series x, you'll get acess to content early
haven't seen it but i have a strong feeling its fake
I wish they'd give BF4 a resolution bump on Series X. They gave it a 120fps boost but I just want the game to look less blurry, its only at 720p which does not look nice on my 4K
nice try
I've long since memorized that url
I know that url anywhere
I wonder if that purported closed alpha has started
If it hasn't, I bet it will be after EA Play and the open beta is late August
That is my bet
No, the cake is the lie
no the cake is real
You lie
its so delicious and moist
moist
it sounds so....gross
I have a question to the PC and PS4/5 players of Battelfield.
I haven’t played any Battlefield (or any FPS for that matter) on PC yet, only on PS4. I only got a good enough gaming PC a few months ago. Given I don’t have a PS5, would it be smarter to get 2042 for PC? Jw.
I just want DICE (or I guess Ripple Effect) to give me 128 player Metro/Locker. Obviously it'd be disastrously broken and a clusterfuck the likes of which we've never seen, but that just makes me want it even more
yes
if you have a good enough pc yes
it depends how good ur pc is
if its good, and u got steam, then go for it
title card
I’m excited to play bf2042 on my iMac I bought the ultimate edition rn
is the closed alpha only for devs and content creators
DICE I would like to hear the full 2042 theme
yea imma get ultimate edition
Ik my specs are up there and more than qualified, I just wasn’t sure. Ty @exotic mica @delicate hollow @short basin
then ur most likely all set
yeah
Anyone else bugged that the F is split in half and off axis
that's what's supposed to happen
the title for bf2042 is awesome
i'll never forget how stupid the console wars are
I was able to get the Ultimate Edition for close to the normal price of the Gold edition on Xbox because Game Pass Ultimate gets you 20% off EA games and also I had some Microsoft Rewards points saved up.
nice
I thought console wars ended in 2012
The console wars will only end once one console is destroyed or everything is cross platform
The console wars still rage in Twitter replies and the IGN comments section, but I think most have moved on aside from like 12 year olds
Especially since the XSX and PS5 are virtually identical in terms of hardware
i hate kids
Ah yes my console runs .34% faster than yours, go fuck yourself
yea i saw twitter that there's this dude who deadass reposts people shitting on xbxo
I believe they've confirmed 2042 will run at 4K 60 on Series X (presumably with a dynamic resolution depending on whats going on similar to 1 and V), and I imagine it'll be the same on PS5 with no real difference in performance aside from PS5 players loading into games a few seconds quicker probably
xbox
@hidden marten I don't think so both uses nvme ssd
Yeah it'll be really close, and it can vary from title from title, but the PS5's is a little bit faster. Its a non-issue though, they're very similar in terms of speed
@hidden marten Won't be noticeable to be honest.
It'll be a matter of the PS5 loading a map in like 10 seconds vs the Series X loading it in 13. You'd only notice if you had them side by side
@short basin Be respectful and appropriate.
Just enjoy the fucking game 
I think the Series X might load faster since they have the DirectX storage API, unless BF2042 doesn't support it
my bad, im just fustrated
Yeah its possible
I'm just going off of what we've seen so far
Fair enough, it is I don't think that the PS5 has any API that helps speed up loading like the Xbox has
Both systems provide a massive improvement over last gen loading times
and better cpu
So 2042 should load pretty quick
As Sony is just relying on the natural speed of the SSD
Lets stop with the console bashing and change topic
i think xbox just loads things faster
I don't think any of us were console bashing, I mean I own a Series X not a PS5 lol
anyway yea
But sure
i don't console bash
128 player Metro pls
So guys what are your thoughts on removal of attrition 🤤
what is console bash?
I still don't know where I should get 2042, steam or Origin?
A big party
origin
what you talk bad about other consoles
oh, ok thanks
or gamings systems
Depends on if you want it natively in your Steam library or not
finally
i hate going into to war to get my ammo
It was painful for the vehicles
who here has battlefield 4?
I do hope they keep the ammo/health crates around. Its helpful when teammates aren't reliable about dropping supplies
That is the thing, I'm not sure
imagine no cool downs and infinite ammo with rockets for jets
oh are u guys talking about having to get to ammo stations across the map
Micheal pull the trigger
I mean I want to support EA and DICE more, but having it in your steam library is fairly nice
I’d go with steam
and of course the event is on my moms week, i failed my math exam and and i still never told her that i flatten my tire for my ebike
I hate vehicle attrition. It makes it difficult to push up with your teammates in Breakthrough when you constantly have to drive your tank back behind the frontlines for resupply
Exactly
and its frustrating to waist your whole ammo on one tank
and having to go back to stations
That is why we need Commander back, so they can drop supply drops
I believe in the trailer they made it clear that vehicle attrition is no more
Cammander mode is coming back but not as an app
goddam
I also think the ricochet mechanic needs to be changed. The hit detection on it is wonky in V and shots that should be direct hits will just be "glancing blows" that do 2 damage
yea the vehicles had infinite ammo
Do we know 100%? I know in the video that was released today, they talked about having it come back sometime down the road in other bf games
i got a 200 hit damage and nothing
In terms of ammo yes. Let’s hope for no vehicle auto health replensih
Personally I'm not a fan of the ricochet mechanic at all, but if it must be kept, at least make it less obnoxious
and i hope they fix that shitty lag with the vehicle speed
most likely it won't happen cause that would unfair
it happens in almost every battlfeild
for both ends
What
I wonder if there will be operations
Did dice a few months ago talked about the crash land system with the vehicles where you can surive your aircarft imapacted and get out un scaved
I come back I said something
I mean it will be close to bf2
I got a warning from the mods for saying something part of the male body
LMAO
mods not like se*cks talk
@naive tundra Lets not discuss it plz.
scary for discord mods

I think vehicles were mostly fine in BF4. If 2042 took that and made some minor balancing tweaks I think we'd golden
where is lemon i want to rant about ea dicktop again
You know the word
they lagg when you drive too fast
That’s all bruh
bepis
@naive tundra Lets not mention it plz.
they gonna ban u bruh
Ok fine bruh
gone
Sorry
Well this is more of a bug, I mean in terms of mechanics and balance
lets hope theres no mmg campers
Cya
a healthy community does not discuss the censorship
I hope there's no MMGs
yes
and did yall heard on Haini Resort with the ship explosion easter egg that the easter egg was suppose to be the orginal levotion and not the hotel collaspe
BF4 LMGs with BF1/V bipods (assuming someone uses a bipod attachment)
yo can we plug our clans yet
specialists, battle pass, in game currency and cosmetics. boom. battlefield 2042. cat ears dlc.
you hate how wrong i am. admit it.
I’m not really sure why they’re working on that. I mean it’s bad enough that people bail all the time. It will really suck if not only do I have to shoot down a jet but I also have to strafe the pilot just to get a kill
Ok I got one for y’all does anyone remember that battlefield bad company cheat were a friend jumps on other team in your lobby damages the tank while you repair it and ranks up like really fast. I was in like 8th /9th grade then it sucked.
Can we get Recker and Sgt. Blackburn as Specialists
irish
Those too
Pac
I would say Miller, but he is dead
Also these guys are also probably dead or retired
Yeah I'd have included Dima if he wasn't dead
Hopefully nothing like that in 2042
Man the Paris level in BF3 was my favorite part of the singleplayer
I mean it doesn't have to be canonical lol
ik the 90% of yall choose Hannah to die at the end of the campaign
It'd just be a neat throwback for fans
You are crazy
searched for NO-PATS in google and said 'no pants day in sweden may 6th'
That must have been the day they came up with the 2042 lore
perhap
Everyone went to work in Stockholm with no pants on and it gave them the idea for no-pats
ive never heard of no pants day
anyone who lives in sweden prob knows about this
Guess you weren't invited
:(
If they add new maps to the Battlehub or whatever its called over time with the live service, I hope we get Kharg Island back eventually. My favorite BF3 map
Rip miller
I'd have suggested bringing in the Bad Company lads as Specialists but I think they should be left alone until we get an actual Bad Co. 3
I don't think we will get a Bad Co. 3
Let me have hope
Do u think they are even gonna make a bad co. 3?
No hope for you, like there is no hope for the No Pants

No pants
As long as my ps4 is fully utilized by this new FROSTBITE ENGINE👀🤷🏾♂️im just saying
Have they called it Frostbite 4 yet
Plz be frostbite 4
They just keep calling it a new version of the Frostbite engine
No, they just call it Frostbite
Call it Frostbite 4, cowards
No, I will call it Frostbite
I was speaking at DICE
Laydor works at EA
I wish
Didn’t that get hacked for their code
I mean I could
They*
Yo which battlefield is the worst
heroes
Battlefield free2play
But it would probably be at EA sports, and I'm not a fan of those games
