battlefield-2042

[errant cobalt]

krazy el alamein

[grand kelp]

Generous of them, letting us host dedicated server for free

[dreamy hornet]

i just want to have a playable experience with other players

[granite lotus]

How to experience El Alamein

[arctic grove]

There are no third-party server providers this time?

[dreamy hornet]

playing at 150 ping against EU players is not fun man

[granite lotus]

150 ping vs bots it is then

[pulsar escarp]

Cant wait for the #c4pinguin meta

[strange vector]

Yeah.

[lucid goblet]

They are all hosted "in-house" as far as i'm aware.

[dreamy hornet]

whom are u calling bot?

[granite lotus]

What’s up with the whole penguin thing? I never caught it

[untold sierra]

Hi

[grand kelp]

During the reveal trailer, at the ice map, there’s a frame where the penguin can be seen

It’s around the new vehicle

[pulsar escarp]

Man i love the idea of custom servers its like a self contained anti cheat specially private servers for competitive play

[slim quiver]

LOL

[granite lotus]

THE penguin? Ooh

[grand kelp]

Yee

From that point, it became a meme

[granite lotus]

This is why I love this community.

[lone wren]

lets not animal abuse the penguin i shall end a battle just to hang out with penguins the whole 128 player lobby

[celest turtle]

It's coming out in November right? Usual launch time

[pulsar escarp]

Make c4pingu meta

[onyx oar]

So is Hazard zone going to release with the game or after the release? I'm bit confused on that part atm :/

[granite lotus]

October 22st

[celest turtle]

22rd

[pulsar escarp]

Thats my bday 😎

[grand kelp]

October 15th for Gold and Ultimate bois, as well as EA Play Pro member

[granite lotus]

Gold is so worth it imo

[pulsar escarp]

Thats also my bday

[celest turtle]

Only 3 months ay

[onyx oar]

but website says later this year. Oh well i'm going to assume it will be released along with the game

[celest turtle]

Ooh

[granite lotus]

Oh that’s poggers for sure

[grand kelp]

Inb4 JackFrag upload first

[granite lotus]

But I almost want to not watch anything at all

[pulsar escarp]

Mod how do we access beat btw? Or is it gonna be closed beta?

[onyx oar]

waiting for games suck 😦

[grand kelp]

At least there’s something to look forward to

[onyx oar]

That is very true

[next onyx]

I say that when i hit casual hundy bombs occasionally

[grand kelp]

We haven’t seen Hazard Zone

So, there’s at least one more info we need to know

[still vault]

I do

[onyx oar]

we know nothing really about Hazard zone besides NOT being a br

[wispy vault]

more hazard zone info coming before the beta at least

[pulsar escarp]

Yoo so all those previews and all are captured on xbox pre alpha right? So that means the game is gonna look alot better on release

[wispy vault]

"later this year" could be anything tho lol

[loud ermine]

also hazard zone a few weeks to a month before launch (was in the spotlight ea play thing)

[wispy vault]

nah

[pulsar escarp]

Woooah babay

[wispy vault]

games never look better than their previews

[onyx oar]

''Later this decade''

[wispy vault]

I guarantee they've already finished work on the engine and all the assets

this is what we're getting

[loud ermine]

we have no idea, thats just what they said

[still vault]

system requirements for the release version for one

[onyx oar]

Wonder if Portal and Hazard Zone are going to be in the beta

[pulsar escarp]

It says pre alpha i dont think they would highlight that if it wasnt

[still vault]

those would be the system requirements for the beta

[wispy vault]

every company does that

it's meaningless

pre-alpha means unplayable

[pulsar escarp]

Wanna bet a stack?

[wispy vault]

but developers abuse the term to protect themselves against any possible fallout by overdelivering

[wind smelt]

minimum req. rtx 3090

[loud ermine]

portal will be, maybe hazard zone will be a separate beta or if its free to play then maybe itll just release

[wispy vault]

they just point to the watermark and say "look we clearly said it was unfinished"

[onyx oar]

yeah I played bfV pre-alpha and that was a horrible experience

[wispy vault]

"we made the game look worse after this, oopsie poopsie"

happens all the time

[pulsar escarp]

Bf4 looks incredible still

[wispy vault]

"Alpha software is not thoroughly tested by the developer before it is released to customers. Alpha software may contain serious errors, and any resulting instability could cause crashes or data loss.[3] Alpha software may not contain all of the features that are planned for the final version.[4]"

[onyx oar]

Bf4 is showing signs of aging tho but thats a given considering how old that game is

[wispy vault]

so pre-alpha is even worse than that

what they showed us wasn't actually pre-alpha footage

100%

but like Is aid

every developer does that

they all lie

[still vault]

If you can't handle an unfinished game being unfinished then just don't play it until it is?

[wispy vault]

common knowledge

it's an open industry secret

[pulsar escarp]

Im betting that it will be better than what weve seen based on compression and pre alpha footage

[wispy vault]

one example: anthem

also an EA game

[onyx oar]

They slap pre-alpha on it so you can keep in mind that things might change before launch. keeps you on your tippy toes

[wispy vault]

the "pre-alpha" footage looked way better than the final release

[pulsar escarp]

And xbox has exclusivity on footage i belive

But bf is ea golden child

[wispy vault]

but they never showed "pre-alpha" footage, they showed doctored footage set in a doctored area of the game specifically made for the E3 demo

[onyx oar]

Trust me pre-alpha is never this polished

[wispy vault]

by DEFINITION of the term PRE-ALPHA, it can't look that good

[onyx oar]

pre-alpha is the testing stage of different mechanics and systems, they cycle through hunders if not thousands of ideas and see what works and doesnt work

[pulsar escarp]

My argument is that im betting that its gonna look better than what they showed

On relase

[wispy vault]

old footage sure, but devs generally finish engine and asset work long before the end of the pre-alpha cycle, and definitely before the game goes into alpha. that's when the focus is on gameplay and balancing elements

[pulsar escarp]

Even if it does look like weve been shown.. still here for it looks good to me

[slim quiver]

The footage we got recently looked better than pre alpha

[wispy vault]

if anything, the graphical fidelity decreases in the final stages of development when most of the work is done to make the game run smoothly on the hardware it has to run smoothly on

[main plaza]

Let's hope the game is better than BF4

[pulsar escarp]

Bfv graphics look amazing and that game was in development in around 2016

[wispy vault]

that's more like it lol yeha

[onyx oar]

which is sad but at the same time I want people without high end rigs to be able to join and play, the more the merrier......unless they are toxic poopoos

[slim quiver]

Idk how they’re in pre alpha right now at the end of July when the open beta is in September

[loud ermine]

pre alpha isnt a defined term and can be interpreted in different ways, maybe for ea that means certain weapons and vehicles aren't in yet or areas of maps arent polished, its a super flexible term

[arctic grove]

by not having a commander mode

[wispy vault]

the obvious solution to that problem is having extremely scalable graphics options

but that takes a lot of work

[slim quiver]

Right so like I said the gameplay we saw recently did not look like pre alpha

[wispy vault]

and a lot of devs don't bother

but frostbite games are generally well-optimized... eventually

cough BF4 cough

[slim quiver]

It’s impossible to tell how old that is

[onyx oar]

I don't mind either way. Sure graphics are nice but it's not what makes me want to play a game and keep on playing for years to come

[pulsar escarp]

Preach

[slim quiver]

And did they sign a NDA

[wispy vault]

I remember Bf3 being amazingly optimized

groundbreaking stuff

it looked better than any other FPS on the market and ran like a dream

that sounds like a problem with your pc LOL

obviously the game crashing isn't normal

[onyx oar]

bf3 was a graphical wonder of its time

Everyone's eyes started to bleed when they released the first gameplay trailer

[pulsar escarp]

I will debate with anybody that bf4 is probably the best fps in history up to date... Look how much was packed into that game with what they had at that time

[slim quiver]

Alpha testing was still delayed either way

[wispy vault]

i still remember my mind being blown sideways out of my ears by the earthquake reveal in the bf3 campaign gameplay teasers

[upper sage]

cant wait to get back on nosehair canals again

[wispy vault]

that marketing campaign was fucking TIGHT

[slim quiver]

And when that dev said “nobody has played the game”

2 weeks ago

The footage can’t be that old

[wispy vault]

it's an old game, there can be a fucky interaction with your hardware in 2021

but trust me

at the time

on 2011 hardware

bf3 was nothing short of incredible

[next onyx]

64p noshahr tdm boiii

[slim quiver]

They said in the ea play that “we had some community members test and come up with a few ideas”

[pulsar escarp]

Big ol facts

[upper sage]

bf1 soldier on nosehair 😆 new mode is gonna be fun as hell

[onyx oar]

@tribal wyvern You playing a game that was optimised for hardware from 10 years ago. You cannot expect them to still support a game that old

[pulsar escarp]

I run bf4 at around 300 fps on low setts

[main plaza]

Could be some graphical setting casuing the fps loss

[pulsar escarp]

Maybe you have things running on the background

[slim quiver]

Most bf games are pretty well optimized

[onyx oar]

also compatibility mode is a thing 👌

[pulsar escarp]

C4PINGU

[next onyx]

I'm actually kind of excited to play Caspian border and African harbour(?)

[slim quiver]

We have no notes tho on specs for the graphics this time around. I’m guessing it will be higher than expected

[onyx oar]

El Alamein all day for me ❤️

[slim quiver]

That was BFV’s minimum

It was a 1050-1060 minimum

Yes

BF 2042 will be definitely higher

[upper sage]

wonder if progression is disabled on portal mode, what about all the skins & unlocks from all the games ?

[grand kelp]

Us 3090 will be ray tracing

[slim quiver]

If they kept the same graphics from BFV without doing anything

I’d be surprised

[main plaza]

1660 for mini and rtx 2060 for recommended

[tidal orbit]

guys where can i see the number of preorders per games on steam?

[upper sage]

ahhhh thats pretty cool I gues sso u need to actually own the other games then

[main plaza]

I don't think you can

[slim quiver]

You won’t know that until we see the specs

[main plaza]

True

[tropic delta]

the thing is, why shoulkd you play bf4 and bf3 ever again - portal is providing THE experience for both games

[slim quiver]

If the minimum for BFV was a 1050-1060 3 years ago, that was basically the release date of the actual 1060

[tropic delta]

so, lets play bf4 as lang as possible and then lay it to rest

[main plaza]

Should be

[pulsar escarp]

never

[wispy vault]

thats not the real minimum for BFV though

you can go lower and still squeeze out playable frames 😛

[slim quiver]

That’s the listed minimum

[vestal silo]

Hi folks, Is the Hazard Zone a BR mode? because seems like in reddit they are convinced its a BR mode?

[wispy vault]

DICE seems convinced it's not a BR mode

[grand kelp]

They said it isn’t a BR

[pulsar escarp]

we should know by next month the latest

[upper sage]

I mean like all the bf3 & 4 skins if they'lll be in portal mode & if so how that progression would work

[arctic grove]

It will be pretty well optimized, I am pretty sure they are working on that.

[vestal silo]

then what is it exactly???

[wispy vault]

unknown

[grand kelp]

We don’t know

[vestal silo]

alright ill get back to reddit and tell them

[onyx oar]

[REDACTED]

[pulsar escarp]

it not then we should be able to use portal to something similar to a br some how

[wispy vault]

the portal is a playground

so i dont think there will be progression for the bf3/1942/bc2 assets

[main plaza]

I upgraded to a 10850k just in case

[pulsar escarp]

ohhh baby i dont think you know the community too well

[onyx oar]

Portal makes you change the rules of the game not modify the maps itself. It's not forge

[wispy vault]

if the logic editor is as expansive as they say it is

then someone will be able to make a BR out of it

no problem

[primal current]

!!specs

[slim quiver]

Yeah I would not go in expecting to see old skins

It wouldn’t make sense

[next onyx]

I wouldn't mind if they did a cod ghosts where they give you rewards if you hit max rank in previous games

[onyx oar]

You cant cause you have to modify the map in order to make a BR

[slim quiver]

Oh that was cool @next onyx

[wispy vault]

why?

oh you mean place guns around

[onyx oar]

yes

[wispy vault]

you can have a BR without gun pickups

[next onyx]

So for someone like me maybe a rank 500 tag, Or a colonel 150 tag for those who hit max rank on bf3

On 2042

[wispy vault]

all a BR needs is a mode in which players spawn in a free for all and they fight until one man is left standing

[brittle forge]

guys do u think it will be possible to create a gun master mode on portal?

[arctic grove]

I mean you could make a BR mode if you like restrict different sections of the map under a timer and you have to move forward towards the middle, but even then its going to be very hard to monitor and control that people don't cheat etc. In the end of the day its not worth having a BR mode, BR is old news

[still vault]

A guess is that you can't manually place weapons and buffs around the maps in Portal, making a BR game quite hard to make.

[grand kelp]

Yes

[next onyx]

Reckon why might see the Bj2 and dogtagger knife again?

[primal current]

have they said anything about min specs air nah?

[onyx oar]

and you need a ring that slowly closes. Question is whether that will be possible at all

[next onyx]

No specs

[grand kelp]

Nope

[primal current]

K

[slim quiver]

Yeah I would really hope so

[pulsar escarp]

"Do not underestimate humanity's infinite potential for malice!" one of the realest quotes of all time

[wispy vault]

i won't be convinced until the russians and chinese have gotten their hands on portal

they can make something out of nothing

[pulsar escarp]

how dumb do you think people are?

[onyx oar]

Cause tommorrow or later today this conversation is going to return

[peak hill]

realizing Damavand Peaks isn't one of the classic maps coming out.
I am sad and my day is ruined.

[primal current]

So the bf1942 in portal uses some bfv stuff right

[pulsar escarp]

how do you thinks hackers make hacks?

[wispy vault]

no, it's 1942 stuff

I mean

[vestal silo]

i would like to see a portal mode with 127 players with infinite RPG Ammo and one fighter jet 🤩

[onyx oar]

I would answer it but I would probably be muted for that

[wispy vault]

maybe

[main plaza]

Magic

[next onyx]

Who knows, They may make it so that you may be able to

[wispy vault]

BFV assets for german soldiers or something would be smart

[arctic grove]

pretty much using the BFV assests but focusing on the 1942 design

[wispy vault]

but the classes and guns and stuff are from 1942

[next onyx]

One map they should reuse is god damn halvoy, It's barely used and would do great for 2042

[pulsar escarp]

smarter than you on a daily my man

[primal current]

ah ok

[onyx oar]

No offense but you need to chill out in general in here. Not worth getting this upset over these things.

[wispy vault]

devs aren't gods or something lmao

people are fallible

when you give tools to the public, unexpected things tend to happen

[pulsar escarp]

this guy doesnt seem to understand that

[onyx oar]

they aren't? Shit but I built a church and everything 😦

[wispy vault]

i think the devs will be surprised and someone will find a way to juryrig something like a BR together

[pulsar escarp]

how is there a bf3 battle royale in the works?

[wispy vault]

or, preferably

[arctic grove]

Lemon they are trolling you bro

[wispy vault]

innovate on the BR concept within the constraints of the logic editor

[pulsar escarp]

no were not

[wispy vault]

and make something even more fun than a BR

[onyx oar]

because modding

[pulsar escarp]

are you a dev?

[primal current]

now all we need is Bf1 added in a update or something

[arctic grove]

yeah ahah its hard to tell

[steady current]

lemon is right

[onyx oar]

Innovation isn't found in freedom but in restrictions someone told me once

[wispy vault]

yeah very true

[slim quiver]

Idk why I keep seeing people asking why BF1 wasn’t added in the portal

The game is 5 years old

[main plaza]

How many tanks do you guys think we can get on each team?

[pulsar escarp]

my argument is devs or not if people really want to they can eventually do it

[slim quiver]

That’s not a classic BF game

[wispy vault]

a million

[steady current]

but horses in PORTAL are needed

[grand kelp]

Not too many that it would crash the game

[pulsar escarp]

no you dont understand it

[onyx oar]

yeah BF1 can wait give me 2142 please

or bf2

[pulsar escarp]

i know the way coding works

[arctic grove]

Some BF1 maps would be nice to see in Portal, but highly unlikely

[lost arrow]

Since you saw in the show a team full of EOD bots i think everyone can have a tank if you wish

[slim quiver]

We need Vietnam

[chrome current]

Hello

[primal current]

I understand totally why Bf1 isn’t in the game I just think in a year or two it’d be cool

[onyx oar]

bf1 still has thousands of players so no reason yet to put itin portal

[next onyx]

They might update it down the road, who knows.

[arctic grove]

I have a feeling that they will add a Vietnam map down the line

[main plaza]

That would be sick af

[pulsar escarp]

time will tell and youre gonna remember me when that happens

[wispy vault]

thinking of picking up bf1 when im done with mass effect

i never played it

[lost arrow]

What i would find funny is a roudkill gamemode. 1 player with a Tuktuk against all players without guns

[pulsar escarp]

not a big fan of br by the way

[slim quiver]

Yeah like I just think since the advertisement for portal was a “love letter to long time fans” it seems they’re reviving games that don’t have support anymore official server wise or who’s playerbases have dwindled

[pulsar escarp]

youre very inexperienced with life and people

[wispy vault]

i mean

[pulsar escarp]

dont understate mate people is what i argue about

[wispy vault]

man's got a point, from what i have seen from you in this channel so far. you have a tendency towards absolutism, which is indicative of immaturity

[pulsar escarp]

oh shit i stuttered through that

[next onyx]

The one map i never got to play was bf3's wake island, That seems really cool

[slim quiver]

BF2 has more daily players funny enough than BF3

[pulsar escarp]

on my phone pooping

[slim quiver]

On PC ofc

[wispy vault]

the fuck it does?

seriously?

[slim quiver]

Yes

On PC there’s like 1000+ people that play BF2

[arctic grove]

Honestly BF2 still holds up to this day haha

[next onyx]

You might be able to in the future

[wispy vault]

your only evidence for that is the devs words

i'll believe it when i see it

[slim quiver]

BF2 is really well done

[pulsar escarp]

thank you mr hank

[next onyx]

Knock it off

[slim quiver]

The game is also a lot harder

Yeah can’t we keep this civil guys

[grand kelp]

I would just let the people discover it

Or let them find out by themselves

[slim quiver]

We are all just trying to discuss the game we all enjoy.

[onyx oar]

BF 2042

[wispy vault]

yes the devs made the game and the editor, but i also think they're wrong lol

somebody will find aw ay

calling it now

[pulsar escarp]

ohh baby preachh

[grand kelp]

I’m sure it will

[pulsar escarp]

dummy here doesnt understand that

[slim quiver]

I think the only overshadowed game in the BF franchise is 2142

[wispy vault]

bf2 seems a bit redundant when we have bf3 and 2042 assets

that's a lot of modern day shit

[slim quiver]

It sold the worst and it was one of the best BF games

[onyx oar]

1942 is 1943 so you are indirectly getting that lol

[worn whale]

If there is a blackhawk then there should be a huey

[arctic grove]

It was ahead of its time Zzzy I believe

[next onyx]

1943 has the same maps from 1942

[slim quiver]

Absolutely!

[onyx oar]

so you want the guns?

[next onyx]

Alright?

[slim quiver]

1943 was just a remastered version almost of 1942. The guns were all in 1942, the vehicles all in 1942

The maps in 1942

[wispy vault]

give me bf3 close quarters dlc maps

with 128 players

[next onyx]

Ugh

[pulsar escarp]

best maps on bf franchise?

[onyx oar]

the maps are the same just remastered lol

[arctic grove]

Well Metro is coming lol

[wispy vault]

no no

metro is too big

[next onyx]

Downtown

[wispy vault]

waaaay too big

[next onyx]

Oops

[slim quiver]

I want the pacific theater as well but it seems like europe won because of the maps

[pulsar escarp]

metro is life bro

[arctic grove]

You can make Metro map smaller

[onyx oar]

hate it when i play metro and get lost

[primal current]

u can do bubbles on it

[amber panther]

BF3 > BC2

[primal current]

or whatever it’s called

[next onyx]

Think i said it earlier but i'm excited to see Caspian border again

[wispy vault]

metro is just a bunch of chokepoints

[grand kelp]

And it’s the BF3 version of Caspian

So, that makes it even better!

[next onyx]

Bf5 iwo jima and wake island are pretty good

[wispy vault]

the close quarters dlc maps had circular designs

[arctic grove]

Caspian Border with an updated engine and graphics 😍

[wispy vault]

meant for running around chasing after enemies from flag to flag

[slim quiver]

Iwo Jima and Solomon Islands in BFV were some of the best maps I’ve played in a BF game imo

[amber panther]

name all you want.. all i want is a Great anti Cheat system!

[wispy vault]

some verticality even

[worn whale]

I want the BF3 jets back

[wispy vault]

god those were good maps

[worn whale]

I forgot what they're called

F17?

super?

[onyx oar]

rip

[primal current]

So there’s no more large press conference type things right?

[arctic grove]

They might have them in the Portal, but I am not sure

[charred wedge]

guys, does this mean that we can play normal matches and not custom ones, IN the Classic Maps? Or are Classic Maps exclusive to Portal?

[next onyx]

Possibly

[slim quiver]

BFV had really good maps. So I was wondering why people said they didn’t like them

[worn whale]

they should really

[errant sigil]

my biggest worry is gun play

[slim quiver]

I liked maps in BFV way more than anything BF4 had

[main plaza]

I'd like to see silk road back

[wispy vault]

classic maps are exclusive to portal, but you can play a normal match in the portal

[pulsar escarp]

they were too unbalanced

[next onyx]

Really the only maps that sucked in bf5 were Al sundan, Panzerstorm and hamada

[onyx oar]

Didn't look like there was any recoil to the guns D:

[next onyx]

Well its either Hamada or Narvik

[errant sigil]

yeah that's what's worrying me

[main plaza]

BFV was a flop

[amber panther]

so your BF2042 Vanilla stats is different from Portal?

[pulsar escarp]

hamada was such a sick idea but it was way to slow and empty

[wispy vault]

no

[slim quiver]

I hated all those except hamada

[onyx oar]

Let's hope it changes before release 👌 I dont want laserbeams everywhere

[errant sigil]

if you change too many portal settings I think they said XP will be reduced or something like that

[viscid mango]

Wake Island Zeroes vs modern Jets
Reenacting The Final Countdown

[errant sigil]

🙏 amen

[next onyx]

Bf5 only sold under a million below projections and people call it a flop

[errant sigil]

They're keeping wake island because they want the hype when they drop it in live service or something

[wispy vault]

your rank and progression are the same in all-out warfare and portal, BUT they have a system in place to detect potentially abusive game settings that would let you farm exp, which will reduce or eliminate progression

according to jackfrags anyway

[slim quiver]

The recoil in BF2042 def has me worried

[onyx oar]

nobody wanting 2142 things makes me sad boy. Guess it is meant to stay death 😦

[amber panther]

is Portal > Single Story mode?

[next onyx]

To be fair we only saw.... 3 guns actually being fired

[wispy vault]

there is no campaign

[pulsar escarp]

my bets are that locker metro and bazar will come back season one or at least one of the grinder maps

[arctic grove]

Wait ZZZY! Are you telling me you didn't like Siege of Shangai or Rogue Transmission OR, OR Flood etc

[primal current]

giant mech thing vs panzer

[next onyx]

The m1a1, dm7 and K30

[viscid mango]

Mig 21 vs Corsair would be interesting

[errant sigil]

campaign is like 6 hours. portal has so much more usage. id take portal over campaign ANYDAY

[slim quiver]

People say here everyday that BFV doesn’t have the most players rn, and every single day they say it I make sure I post those statistics

[onyx oar]

Giant mech vs robbo dogs yeeeaaaaa

[main plaza]

What cpus u guys gonna run the game on?

[primal current]

or eod bots

[grand kelp]

Ryzen 7 5800x

[arctic grove]

Damn

[next onyx]

Lmaoooo when bf1 is struggling even more

[onyx oar]

Would be great to have Titan mode from 2142 return

[errant sigil]

i7-10750h

[next onyx]

Don't expect much from dice

[wispy vault]

i5 9600k

[chrome current]

We need return of the zero-recoil bipod

[slim quiver]

The war never ends

[arctic grove]

Guys imagine modern russian soldiers fighting the Wermacht in the Battle of Bulge

[arctic grove]

hopefully an AMD Ryzen 5900x

[onyx oar]

Italians in WW2 are

[amber panther]

can i still run my old i7 6700 in BF2042? 😦

[wispy vault]

maybe

[next onyx]

As long as there are servers in OCE, At most a 12- 15 per day it really isn't dead

[wispy vault]

we dont have any specs

[steady current]

yep they had 3 years and make 6 maps when most bf games were developed through 2 years and have like 10-12 maps

[primal current]

so u can technically just set up 2042 with bf3 classes if u don’t like specialists

[hollow bobcat]

i7-9700K at 5.0 Ghz

[primal current]

or something like that

[onyx oar]

noice

[wispy vault]

correct ye

[next onyx]

Reminds me of a guy who said the game was dead in EU for bf1 when there are like 6 servers early in the morning

[slim quiver]

Oh yeah absolutely

[arctic grove]

We got bots to keep us company LOL

[next onyx]

I didn't mean it like that. I just meant don't expect them to do every god damn faction and map they once did

[fossil trench]

Any news on what hazard zone is yet?

[arctic grove]

1 US soldier with an SMG
Vs
50 German Soldiers with knives

[wispy vault]

you can make a game mode that is just regular 2042 conquest or breakthrough, and everyone has access to the 2042 guns and gadgets, BUT instead of specialists, everyone is bf3 classes

[next onyx]

no

[slim quiver]

The only thing I hate when a BF game slows down in population is Conquest becomes the only active mode and I absolutely hate conquest

[arctic grove]

@next onyx Could I send you a dm?

[onyx oar]

It's not a BR

[primal current]

that’s cool Ik a ton of people were annoyed by specialists

[next onyx]

Yeah sure man

[fossil trench]

Yeah I figured

[wispy vault]

wait waht

[steady current]

yep, probably EA will go like: money is right, just do 1 map every season and fck people

[wispy vault]

how do you even end up as a bf fan if you hate conquest

[ruby copper]

broooo i just saw battlefield portal

[onyx oar]

Better be satisfied cause that's all we have 😛

[ruby copper]

that shit looks so good

[hollow bobcat]

not really when the GPU is a GTX 770 lol

[arctic grove]

same

[amber panther]

I bet Hazard zone is still a BR.. even if Dice said that its not BR but its difenetly BR

[slim quiver]

Because there’s rush, operations, breakthrough @wispy vault

[midnight niche]

I hope there will be easy to find servers like WWII classes/ gears on BF3/BF2042 maps

[ruby copper]

i probably wont be able to run the game tho :(

[onyx oar]

Blow up the factory with bombers weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[next onyx]

It takes a long time to make a map, Remaking probably takes half the time or probably the same.

[arctic grove]

@ruby copper you like the battlefield portal?

[ruby copper]

imagine the behemoth in siege of shanghai bro

[ruby copper]

yeah it looks really cool

[arctic grove]

siege of shanghai was shit honestly

[steady current]

if they can in 2 years make 10. And DICE LA couldnt make 10 in 3 years? They are small

[ruby copper]

WHAT

siege of shanghai is awesome

[onyx oar]

You can btw. First destruction like elements were already in 1942. Takes some time to destroy tho

[arctic grove]

i don't have a single good memory from that map

[next onyx]

It depends

[wispy vault]

for sure. people can export the alphanumerical code of their server outside of the game, so expect to find a subreddit where people can list their servers with all the mode specs and people can come together on the most popular ones

[next onyx]

Siege and paracel took 6 months

[arctic grove]

only a bunch of campers and heli players

[amber panther]

Since the annoucement of BF2042 Portal, I guess the next BF title will be on 2025 or 2026

[arctic grove]

i hope they remaster the battle of bulge from battlefield 1942

[steady current]

they said to let them know what we want later. But how we can do it?

[onyx oar]

I wish they showed a little more of the maps in the trailer

[primal current]

BF: 42

[main plaza]

What gpus u all got?

[grand kelp]

They did

[wispy vault]

1660 super

[onyx oar]

really curious about the remastered maps, how they look, what is changed etc

[arctic grove]

WHAT?!

[grand kelp]

They have Battle of Bulge map

[arctic grove]

WOOHOO

less goo

[viscid mango]

Give it time and there will be tons of maps and contents from all other Battlefield games in the end
Would be crazy if DICE just said screw it and surprised us with 2142 Mechs

[main plaza]

Same

[arctic grove]

Battle of Bulge is the closest we will get to the Eastern Front

[wispy vault]

most ppl do, or something equivalent

especially with the shortages this past year

[arctic grove]

omg i remember that bridge

[main plaza]

But I want to upgrade so bad

[wispy vault]

there is NO WAY dice will make a game that needs a 20xx or 30xx GPU

[onyx oar]

You should see the concept art

[wispy vault]

nobody has that shit

[arctic grove]

it was a pain in the ass to cross the bridge

[hollow bobcat]

as i said a crappy GTX-770

[grand kelp]

I’m sure they’ll open up the map to accommodate 128 players

[arctic grove]

dm?

[midnight niche]

Do we know the exact start date of the beta? Or just september?

[slim quiver]

All I’m saying about specs is you can’t really say it won’t happen until we see it

[wispy vault]

also the basic engine has to run on ps4 and xbox one

[arctic grove]

the game will release in October

[main plaza]

Hope prices go down so we can upgrade

[arctic grove]

oi folks join me in General 1 to discuss these topics over voice!

[wispy vault]

if they can downgrade it to run on those consoles, they can make it scalable on PC to let ppl with older rigs play

[hollow bobcat]

but i also do have 32GB of G Skill Trident Z at 3200 MHz

[tame cobalt]

The beta has been delayed to a few weeks after the game's launch

[slim quiver]

Idk I think some people are underestimating

[midnight niche]

I know, but I mean beta. Someone said that it will start in september

[next onyx]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/532437416296841218/867832636314746900/owoo.jpg

[slim quiver]

I know what you said

[main plaza]

Nice whats the latency?

[onyx oar]

OwO bulgie wulgie??

[hollow bobcat]

bro the disabled life sucks so no way im gonna get another GPU anytime soon until i start the plasma donation

[next onyx]

What have i done

[hollow bobcat]

im lucky to even got the stuff from the stimulus checks

[primal current]

Oh no

[amber panther]

the might bring back Fire Storm woooooo

[wispy vault]

if we are underestimating then DICe is shooting themselves in the foot and releasing a game that 70% of their fans cant play

on PC

which would be hella fucking dumb in this market

[tame cobalt]

Will bf 2042 run on my ps5???

[echo vortex]

So with this new weapons and past games content in 2042 does that mean all the weapons will be unlockable in normal multiplayer?

[wispy vault]

we cant upgrade even if we wanted to

[arctic grove]

[echo vortex]

Or Will it just be in the sandbox mode?

[main plaza]

Wish I can help

[wispy vault]

cuz there ARE NO FUCKING CHIPS UGH

[onyx oar]

bring back firestrom map not the gamemode thanks

[slim quiver]

I just think that people haven’t taken into account that BF has always tried to maintain a premium PC experience. I don’t remember any BF game having the same graphical requirements as another Title. If they kept the graphics exactly the same as a 3 year old game I’ll be disappointed

[arctic grove]

yes and no

[slim quiver]

We’ve seen what next gen graphics are like and I want the game to feel like next gen

[main plaza]

Hmm I'd say 6 core mini

[next onyx]

They've done some good trips to keep their games looking good though

[wispy vault]

like I said before, BF3 looked way better than MW3 and ran better too

[onyx oar]

or are we talking about operation firestorm?

[arctic grove]

did u see the gameplay trailer?

[wispy vault]

they're good at optimization

or

they were anyway lol

[slim quiver]

I did but it was pre alpha

[wispy vault]

yeah true

[slim quiver]

Have you seen BF4’s pre alpha photos

[wispy vault]

but hey thats consoles

[slim quiver]

Vs what release was

[hollow bobcat]

nah its fine bro i aint complaining

[wispy vault]

ps3 and xbox 360 were especially weak on the hardware side

[hollow bobcat]

and the latency is 15-15-15-36

[wispy vault]

back then for the same amount of money you could build a pc that was 3x as powerful

cuz pc parts were still cheap

now?

no way

[next onyx]

One thing for sure that changes all the time is the art style

[wispy vault]

for the cost of a ps5 you cant even buy a fucking GPU that is as good

[next onyx]

It's small but it's big

[wispy vault]

let alone the rest of the PC

shit's fucked

[slim quiver]

If BF wants to keep the reputation of a premium title, they will shoot for higher graphical fidelity. From the animations, the feeling of the transitional movements, the atmosphere

[wispy vault]

well yeah

[slim quiver]

They do it every single entry

I doubt that 2042 will have the same graphical req as BFV

[main plaza]

I got crucial ballistix 3600mhz cl 16 paired with an i9 10850k

[onyx oar]

It's great to have local hardware stores that aren't big corporations so you get everything for decent prices 🙂

[slim quiver]

The game is 3 years old

[wispy vault]

but you dont need to push the limits of the hardware to get good animations and movements and atmosphere

[slim quiver]

You don’t need to push the limits

But they don’t need to copy paste

[wispy vault]

nah ofc

[slim quiver]

They’ve never done that

[wispy vault]

what they need to do

is create a very high upper limit

for what the game can look like

[hollow bobcat]

damn

[wispy vault]

but also have a REALLY low floor

for what the game can look like

and then everybody wins

[arctic grove]

The only budget BF game I remember is the BF Online lol, remember those days?

[wispy vault]

like

[onyx oar]

battlefield heroes stares intensly at you

[pine flare]

the graphic engine still should be the frostbite 3 version, with some new additions etc, but texture resolution should be the same

[wispy vault]

one version of the game with raytracing off that runs decently on low-med on a 1660 super

[arctic grove]

LOL

[slim quiver]

The problem is everyone wants to play on PC but they all want to play on a PC from 5-8 years ago in build

[wispy vault]

and one version of the game with raytracing on that brings a 3090 to its knees and looks gorgeous amazing wow

[fossil trench]

Do people even play primarily on next gen? Keep hearing people talk about playing 1 or 2 games because of the limited selection

[wispy vault]

well yeah because nobody can afford 2020 hardware

it either doesnt exist

or costs 3x MSRP

fuck that

[arctic grove]

If only the Semi Conductors weren't so hard to obtain and make...

[main plaza]

Agreed

[slim quiver]

It’s not about 2020 hardware tbh

[tame cobalt]

I mean you can play last gen games on new gen as well

[onyx oar]

they do but we are in a weird transistion period from old to new. So give it some time.

[slim quiver]

It’s just not about having a low range PC build and expecting steady frames

[wispy vault]

you just can't push the limit in today's hardware market, it's stupid, people CAN'T upgrade

[main plaza]

True indeed

[slim quiver]

You can upgrade it’s just harder

[onyx oar]

So we should buy a console....oh no wait those are also sold out lol

[slim quiver]

And it’s really only GPU’s. The rest of the market is completely obtainable

Consoles are even easier to get

[wispy vault]

GPUs are the most important part in that equation though

[onyx oar]

cries in ps5 waitlist

[slim quiver]

Best Buy does a drop every 2 weeks

[main plaza]

More like impossible

[hollow bobcat]

ya the consoles were bought out because someone had thousands of them in a ware house and was mining bit coins

[wispy vault]

if only best buy existed in europe lol

[main plaza]

I ain't paying that much

[wispy vault]

GPUs and consoles are even more expensive and even harder to get here

[fossil trench]

I’m so happy to se Arica Harbour and Valparaiso

[slim quiver]

If you live near a circuit city you’re already done

[onyx oar]

heard scalpers release a console every day

[fossil trench]

I spent my teenhood on BC2

[slim quiver]

My friend got me my GPU from an in store buy at MSRP

you just need to go to a place that doesn’t sell online

[main plaza]

Thats luck

[slim quiver]

So they only have store inventory

[tame cobalt]

Vast majority of consoles go directly to users

[slim quiver]

Yes it is luck

But it still confirms it’s possible

[onyx oar]

local businesses are great 👌

[steady current]

same here, would love to see all BC2 maps remastered. All of them were awesome

[slim quiver]

As for every single other part?

All of them were perfectly in stockc

[main plaza]

I upgraded all my pc just need a new gpu

[wispy vault]

they all closed

[slim quiver]

And CPUs will be definitely tested in 2042 with how many people can be on your screen

[wispy vault]

lol

[slim quiver]

Oh so you’re in quarantine still

[wispy vault]

maybe there's a mediamarkt somewhere in my country that has GPUs

no I mean

permanently

those chains disappeared a few years ago

[slim quiver]

Why are they closed permanently

[wispy vault]

because of online retailers

[hollow bobcat]

Best Buy for me here is the best ill get the chance to get a GPU

[slim quiver]

How many online retailers do you have

[wispy vault]

they were driven out of the market

[hollow bobcat]

but other then that im not about to sit there and wait in the blistering heat

[chilly jacinth]

not many places survive without an online store now

[wispy vault]

megekko and alternate and sites like that dominate the PC part market

[slim quiver]

Best Buy is the easiest chance to get anything

[wispy vault]

doesnt exist here

[slim quiver]

Because they make you pick it up in store

So you order online and drive there and pick it up

Which means NO scalpers

Because bots can’t physically walk into a store

[main plaza]

What gpu u aiming for?

[arctic grove]

Hank search for this place called Microcenter. I bought my old PC there back when I lived in the EU

[slim quiver]

Micro center is where I got my gpu

It’s the best place ever

They refuse to sell scalp heavy items online

[wispy vault]

dont have them in my country

[grand kelp]

Too bad MicroCenter isn’t available where I am

[arctic grove]

Sorry I meant microspot

[main plaza]

What did u get?

[fossil trench]

Unofficial 3rd parties are too sketchy for me

[slim quiver]

3090 FTW3

[next onyx]

I found a store where i can buy the GPU i'm looking for

So that's awesome

[grand kelp]

Noice!

[slim quiver]

BASED

you going with that 1080ti

[grand kelp]

MSRP?

[next onyx]

Well that's one of my options

[wispy vault]

mediamarkt is one of the only large brick and mortar electronics retailers that is left in NL and they dont even sell GPUs

[main plaza]

Talk about luck

[next onyx]

I"m also looking at a 3060TI which is of nearly similar power

[slim quiver]

Even more lucky is it was MSRP

[next onyx]

The only difference is that a second hand 1080Ti will be a bit older and well.. yeah

[grand kelp]

That’s even luckier

[next onyx]

But with a 3060ti it'll be a bit newer

[slim quiver]

3060ti is nice

[onyx oar]

Make Media Markt great again

[grand kelp]

Yeah, try to get that 3060ti if you can

Worth every penny

[next onyx]

I plan on buying a desktop without a GPU and just storing it in my room until i get the GPU

[grand kelp]

Just be sure to buy it from reputable SI

[wispy vault]

3060ti goes for 800 euros in NL, which is 940 dollars

which is just

[slim quiver]

If you have a little more cash a 3070ti is better

[wispy vault]

INSANE

[grand kelp]

And with branded components

[wispy vault]

i am not spending that

[next onyx]

Too bad AMD doesn't really do integrated graphics, Nor can i use this old AMD Radeon HD 5800 on a newer motherboard lmao

[wispy vault]

for a low end card

[grand kelp]

Isn’t AMD only do APU?

[next onyx]

I'm sorry APU?

[slim quiver]

I wouldn’t spend 940 dollars on a 360ti LMAO

That’s like over a MSRP 3080

[wispy vault]

3080 goes for 1500 dollars

so yeah

[grand kelp]

It’s integrated graphics

[slim quiver]

That’s a yikes

[wispy vault]

we're just fucked here

that's EU prices and there is no alternative

that's it

[main plaza]

Exactly

[next onyx]

If their Proc has a G then it's integrated but the processor i'm looking at doesn't have it

[slim quiver]

If I bought a 3080 on Newegg rn it’s 1559

[next onyx]

The cheapest i can get a 3060TI is for 1049 AUD lmao

[wispy vault]

friend of mine straight up had his mother buy a laptop for him in the US and bring it back when she was on holiday

[grand kelp]

What processor you’re looking at?

[wispy vault]

because it was hundreds upon hundreds of euros cheaper

than buying one here

[next onyx]

Which is 773 USD

[slim quiver]

You know what people are doing a lot right now

[arctic grove]

I want to get the new CPU but its close to $900 😬

[next onyx]

Okay before we get side tracked, Maybe #technology would be a better idea.

[grand kelp]

Yee

who can help me get the games off amazon prime lol

[raw vale]

this is the song used in the portal trailer

another song for your playlist

[arctic grove]

I like that Dice / EA use songs that not many people really know

Instead of hiring a rapper or something lol coughs Cod

[raw vale]

dont worry they'll use fortunate son when they release a vietnam portal map soontm

[main plaza]

👍

[arctic grove]

welp rip

battlefield 1 and 5 are free on prime

[hollow bobcat]

already got them both

[arctic grove]

just BF1 is free

[raw vale]

BFV will be free on august 2

[arctic grove]

oh dammit mate

i cant get neither

wont let me sign up

rip i wanted bf1

[hollow bobcat]

the BF series was for free once on steam

[arctic grove]

ill just play bf4

[hollow bobcat]

thats how i got all of them on there

and i do only play 4

[copper fulcrum]

Because apparently Kickstart My Heart isn't known?

[full lichen]

Uhm, they literally used a remix of kickstsrt my heart by zwei lol, both know alot

[hollow bobcat]

i thought it was obvious of that song

Not as known as Drake or Cardi B lol

err i mean good morning

[torpid shuttle]

Where is my syringe? This is my powerful weapon!!!

[copper fulcrum]

I like that the same players that will complain about women in war will also be the same players going "Holy shit a modern US soldier is teabagging a WWII German, now this is Battlefield"

[fossil trench]

I can’t wait to use my M24 again in BF2042 😩

[spark acorn]

Same.

[fossil trench]

I loved that gun so much in BC2

[spark acorn]

Damn we gotta wait till September for Open Beta

[fossil trench]

Yeah :/

At least I have time to save up for Ultimate Edition

[spark acorn]

Nice, good.

I have already the money for it but I am waiting for a date for Open Beta.

Then I can pay gold edition and get into early access for Open beta.

[fossil trench]

Nice pfp btw

[copper fulcrum]

They still haven't exactly mentioned how guns will perform which is kinda sad since they were all about describing them in V

[fossil trench]

EXACTLY

The biggest worry I have

I want BF4 gun balancing mechanics

[cursive tide]

i dont think they will make updates for bf4

[fossil trench]

That’s not what I mean

BF4 has distinct balancing mechanics for guns

[idle crater]

is anyone watching the olympic ceremony

[lucid swallow]

From a gamespot article the beta is able to be pre downloaded on the 3rd of September and then playable on the 5th of September

[fossil trench]

I want those in BF2042 gunplay

[cursive tide]

oh ok

[next onyx]

CLEEEEEEAAAR

[idle crater]

btw

cinematic trailers are cool and all

but can we get some actual gameplay

[fossil trench]

Those defibrillators are kinda cartoonish lol

Like lightning coming out of them

[sweet pond]

[next onyx]

I hope they keep that for feedback

[fresh mango]

https://answers.ea.com/t5/General-Discussion/Battlefield-Portal/m-p/10532313#M9541

[tacit sphinx]

it’s probably for cinematic effect tbf, i don’t think that was actual gameplay

[idle crater]

bruh

that was all cinematic

[fresh mango]

on 2nd of August

[idle crater]

ay

[fossil trench]

I want an uncut unscripted match of gameplay

[tacit sphinx]

oh have they given an actual date for more footage?

[copper fulcrum]

Yeah I just wanna see... you know gameplay of the game I wanna get

[idle crater]

and whos gonna play?

the devs?

[copper fulcrum]

You can get Game-Changers to play a match

[fresh mango]

you can sign up for the playtesting if u are interested

[fresh mango]

play testers

[copper fulcrum]

That doesn't ensure anything

[fossil trench]

Yeah why not? Play testers?

[fresh mango]

https://www.ea.com/playtesting

[idle crater]

idk they are big noobs

[fossil trench]

QA testers?

[dreamy hornet]

doesnt matter
idc about realism anymore, just make the game FUN

[idle crater]

it will look stale

[fossil trench]

Yeah I agree lol

It’s just a pet peeve of mine

[copper fulcrum]

Battlefield has never, ever been realistic lmao

[tacit sphinx]

scripted gameplay is fine, but some actual first person footage that is more than a five second clip would be nice

[fossil trench]

Wow. I had no idea

[dreamy hornet]

and tbh, the lighter the game is on resources, the betteer
running 127 AI players is WILD and obviously its gonna be very demanding on the system

we're talking 12-13 GB RAM consumption EASILY

[copper fulcrum]

127 AI players won't be a possibility iirc

I believe it's up to 64

[dreamy hornet]

they might be

idk

they havent told us about the AI limits

[idle crater]

ill tell you the limits

they will be dumb as hell

the end

[fossil trench]

Lol right?

You think AI can control vehicles?

[dreamy hornet]

not as dumb as you

[fossil trench]

Good joke

[idle crater]

great burn

[dreamy hornet]

they did say ai will use tanks and some vehicles to a small extent

but i dont expect them to do rendezooks 🤣

[fossil trench]

Yeah figures lol

AI would follow roads lmao

Not a fun game

[dreamy hornet]

considering the way AI behave in games like cod, i think they should be fine

i mean, veteran bots in cod have AIM bot

[fossil trench]

Vehicle and soldiers play very differently

[dreamy hornet]

yea, the ai bot is gonna take ages to aim at me with a tank

[fossil trench]

You can’t just add aimbots on vehicles and call it a good day

[fossil trench]

Yeah and what about jets and helicopters lol

[dreamy hornet]

if i dont find the playerbase to be active at a particular hour
ill just make a smaller game mode which accomodates my 5-9 friends and then we can do a backfill
doing a 12v12

[spark acorn]

I heard the bots in BF2042 are self-learning, idk it's a rumour.

[dreamy hornet]

dont tell me they're gonna learn t bagging at some point

[spark acorn]

maybe

[main plaza]

I hate bots

[dreamy hornet]

its the last thing i want to see xD

[fossil trench]

That’s the only way it’s actually sufficient

[spark acorn]

if they learn to drop medical kits which they plan to do

[dreamy hornet]

they are great for regions where player population is very low

[spark acorn]

and actually play as a team player, thats gonna be op

[dreamy hornet]

and tbh, the bots are gonna be better players than us
going for objectives, reviving us etc.

[spark acorn]

AI is scary.

[idle crater]

AI in bf2042 wont be scary

it will be bots

as you know them

dumb and slow

[fossil trench]

Lol no

[main plaza]

Or aimbots

[fossil trench]

AI will be dumb and slow

[idle crater]

they wont make them have aimbots

[dreamy hornet]

im sure this guy is gonna be the first to come up with
"NERF the bots" complaints

[fossil trench]

Like always

[idle crater]

because 90% of the playerbase is casual af

and they will cry

so no

bots will suck

[main plaza]

Imma start crying rn

[fossil trench]

Yep

[idle crater]

uh no, i will be busy going UGH to the sound of many bots dying

[fossil trench]

And no option to not have AI

wtf dice

[idle crater]

also imagine even playing with bots

[dreamy hornet]

i like the idea of having bots, regions with low player populations can also have fun

[idle crater]

just find a 24/7 full server

[dreamy hornet]

not everyone has 20 fucking servers in their country for a video game

[idle crater]

true

good idea for east asia and stuff

[fossil trench]

Obviously

[spark acorn]

yeah OCE definitely needs it.

[fossil trench]

But I want matches with only real players

[spark acorn]

game modes spreading the playerbase by a lot I am guessing

[idle crater]

spreading or splitting

[main plaza]

Same

[fossil trench]

Bots are dumb and slow

[spark acorn]

and here in Oceania, there isnt that many players for older games like BF.

[dreamy hornet]

its good for us indians too
either we gotta play on singapore servers OR directly EU
and even if the EU playerbase is not that skilled
playing at 150 ping against 10 ms ping guys is not fair

[idle crater]

150 is ok

[copper fulcrum]

We also don't know if we saw any bots playing

You know in the 10 seconds of game footage

[dreamy hornet]

thats why we even play battlefield games

[idle crater]

mhm pain

[dreamy hornet]

after 180, the delay is just too much

[idle crater]

i find 160 the limit

[crimson umbra]

[idle crater]

beyond that things go weird

[dreamy hornet]

and tbh, because of portal, half of the playerbase is gonna be busy in that mode
so thats gonna cause issues even more

[idle crater]

xdddddd

[dreamy hornet]

even if AI is dumb
killing a bunch of bots is more fun than waiting in the matchmaking for ages while still progressing

[median furnace]

[dreamy hornet]

doggy

[idle crater]

[fossil trench]

64v64 robo doggo

Let’s go

[idle crater]

yes

64 ranger dogs vs eod bots

obviously the eod bots lose in a hysterical fashion

[copper fulcrum]

inb4 Spitfire and Stuka ends up being more OP than the actual 2042 jets

[spark acorn]

sheesh

imagine that

[fossil trench]

It’s an ultimate sandbox

You can configure anything

[copper fulcrum]

Still really wanna see Strike at Karkand remade

[violet wedge]

drones with c4 vs one jet

[frail sparrow]

Was in bf3 too, soooo

[lament kiln]

that's like my goto with SWB2
if EA servers won't let me play (and if I did I have to wait for minutes for players to join), I'll play with the boiz

then again i've been playing with bots since I got BO2

[ruby copper]

[jolly slate]

[copper fulcrum]

Can we thank DICE for giving us hyper-realistic/immersive gameplay of sending a WWII Jeep into a Futuristic V-Tol Chopper?

[pliant mauve]

kaiz wath time beta closed

[proper forum]

[wanton wagon]

Battlefield 2042 - Yea or Nah?

[proper forum]

Yea

[lament kiln]

WOAHH

YeAH

[slim quiver]

Yes

Im finally glad dice had to go out and make it obvious to everyone that BF is not meant to be realistic in the slightest. I guess they were tired of subtle hints

[raw vale]

is it just me or feldgrau in both portal trailer and bfv ingame looks more green?

[chilly jacinth]

wdym BF is clearly peak realism

[slim quiver]

Oh yeah totally

[mortal raft]

Pretty sure it's supposed to be green

[raw vale]

it's supposed to be gray as the name suggests

feldgrau = field gray

[arctic grove]

Who would win?
Wehraboo knife or Medic with defibrillator

[jade turtle]

Ah yes blowing a friendly tank into the air and shooting a jet out of the sky

[mortal raft]

Where is that uniform called Feldgrau in the trailer?

Ohhh

Sorry, I misread

You were talking about BFV

[slim quiver]

Knife wins

[mortal raft]

Oh, you were not

[slim quiver]

Defib you have to charge

[raw vale]

look at offizier

i think thats what the feldgrau should have looked like

[chilly jacinth]

or just bait a backstab with charged paddles

and kill them

unless thats fixed

[arctic grove]

Of course, it's a slow attack with defib

[mortal raft]

The Germans did have green uniforms

[slim quiver]

Yea

Knife is just faster

[fossil trench]

Why defibrillator vs knife. Let’s do knife vs knife

[tranquil parrot]

defibrillator can revive teammates

[fossil trench]

Are there knife kill animations in BF2042?

[arctic grove]

Lmao, very cheat

[fossil trench]

Like in BF4. Those kind of animations

[mortal raft]

Also in that short were the character is changing appearances quickly you can see a grey German uniform.
Might depend on map

[fossil trench]

BF1 and BFV melee animations were poor

[still vault]

You can make it whatever vs whatever

[fossil trench]

Yeah I know. It’s amazing

You can even go much further than that

[mortal raft]

Unlimited ammo rocked launcher only

[fossil trench]

Yeah lol

[mortal raft]

I remember those servers from BC2

[raw vale]

mg42 only server

[fossil trench]

Tons of possibilities

Countless

[mortal raft]

Would kill your console/PC though

[fossil trench]

You could cancel reload animations

Spam rockets

[mortal raft]

Imagine the performance costs of 128 players spamming rockets

[fossil trench]

It’s a true sandbox

[arctic grove]

lol

[fossil trench]

Except for bots in games and operators, everything is configurable

[mortal raft]

I mean you can technically just use BF3 soldiers in 2042 maps and then don't have operators to my understanding

[fossil trench]

Operators are required

I just watched Jack Frags’ video on it

[mortal raft]

Doesn't seem that way.
Like, you can't have mixed era teams

[fossil trench]

He said operators are required

[jolly goblet]

Did freeman actually said "not enough memes"

[fossil trench]

I’m pretty sure it’s just because of how the game works

[mortal raft]

I think he might have just made his point poorly

[tiny wharf]

Wdym required?

For what?

[fossil trench]

As playable soldiers in the new mode

[jolly goblet]

Next checkpoint

!when

Rip

[mortal raft]

But if you have both teams BF3 era, you won't have operators

[fossil trench]

You must play as an operator

[empty hill]

wassap here

[fossil trench]

Yeah I know what you mean

Just going off that video I watched

[pliant mauve]

btf3 vs ptf5 war
