battlefield-2042

[lost snow]

Hazard zone will be area damage over time, like a radioactive zone, where you can only stay in it a certain time without dying, then exit zone to regen

[grand barn]

they want more money

an apex BR and a BF BR would fill 2 different people's wants I guess

[cobalt breach]

so Div2 dark zone then

[quiet shell]

If that was the case, why has EA been regularly backstepping on it's microtransactions like with Jedi Fallen Order

[cobalt breach]

that's still BR

[lost snow]

unfamiliar with Div 2

[grand barn]

i dont pay attention to that game so I couldnt tell you, but we all know EA wants more money lol

[cobalt breach]

same concept, go in, get gear, shoot people, fuck off

[radiant prism]

Im less worried about Hazard Zone and more worried about what the FUCK Renewal is as a map

[sterile tide]

Yeah but apex servers are shit

[quiet shell]

I like the most popular take that Hazard Zone will be a Battlefield take on the Escape from Tarkov formula

[hybrid steppe]

I think it will be something like BR like a timed shrinking area but I'm hoping it's like PVPVE experience with enemy players and AI soldiers.

[radiant prism]

Even with all the trailers and shit out, we have not been shown a glimpse of Renewal

Besides that one picture

[lost snow]

they have a captive audience with the "lockdowns"

[cobalt breach]

that will honestly be great, but tarkov is hard to beat with its customisations and all

[grand barn]

I do think DICE might be shooting themselves in the foot with all of these modes though

too many of them

[mighty cradle]

I just hope there's better solider customizations

[cobalt breach]

we have rebranded DICE LA on hand to help

[tiny wharf]

Just hope it’s not wacky and stupid

[cobalt breach]

no worries there

[tiny wharf]

Like cod

[sterile tide]

They will either make the game of the decade or fuck everything up

[cobalt breach]

like xdefiant?

[quiet shell]

2042 has like 4 or 5 studios working on it and probably hundreds of millions invested in it. EA can't afford to fuck this up

[hybrid steppe]

There isn't really that many though?

• All-out warfare = Conquest and Breakthrough
• Portal
• Hazard Zone

[mighty cradle]

Yeah lol

[tiny wharf]

🤮

[grand barn]

portal gives you essentially unlimited gamemodes + base game 2042 + hazard zone

u see what I mean

[lost snow]

thinking we will have real wars to contend with soon, so most will just be drafted anyways

[deep heart]

Does anybody know if people play hardline? On pc

[cobalt breach]

not that i know of

[radiant prism]

Portal is so expansive, I'm almost willing to say its almost guaranteed an audience for the next 3 years even if base AOW sucks

[tiny wharf]

But Portal is a community based made like Forge from Halo

[deep heart]

Ah ok

[cobalt breach]

console is pretty filled though

[quiet shell]

Theres 2-3 servers on pc at peak hours

[grand barn]

they arent going to magically make a GOTY, but they have to not fuck up lol

[cobalt breach]

what with it being free with gamepass and all

[deep heart]

Are the full?

[grand barn]

yes but people will play it lol

[quiet shell]

Usually yeah

[hybrid steppe]

Is that confirmed though?

[grand barn]

playerbase might be quiet spread

[cobalt breach]

that was for hardline

[deep heart]

Thx mate

[cobalt breach]

my bad for the confusion

[radiant prism]

Like...if this level of depth turns out to be what we think its going to be...its almost impossible for at least some part of it to be good enough to warrant a playerbase

[tiny wharf]

That is why AI is a thing

[quiet shell]

They're probably expecting a massive playerbase for 2042

[hybrid steppe]

Ah I see, np

[tiny wharf]

That’s why they are cranking out the trailers to be hype af

[mighty cradle]

Anyone have any game mode ideas for Portal ?

[tiny wharf]

Almost smashing the trending page on YouTube

[deep heart]

Zombies

[grand barn]

oh it will be massive + crossplay

everyone is tired of their own shitty games and all looking towards battlefield this time around

[sterile tide]

Even cod players are hyped for bf2042 it’s gonna be huge

[grand barn]

exactly

[next onyx]

Let's just hope we dont get shitty tank physics

[mighty cradle]

Great start

[radiant prism]

Yeah, they might really be banking on that CoD crowd coming over...which honestly I don't think its a great idea for long term and will only succeed in just turning BF into CoD, but would definitely solve that "splitting the playerbase" part

[grand barn]

hype movement

[quiet shell]

I hope the AI will be good. I remember when they did the AI server tests in Battlefield 1 and the overview teams couldn't differentiate from player and AI

[deep heart]

Yes

[hybrid steppe]

Single squad of players vs 64 Hard setting AI soldiers, no respawns = survival mode

[fickle vector]

what I also hope is INFANTRY ONLY!

[grand barn]

BF has always been COD on bigger maps since BC2 my dude, its already over lol

[lost snow]

anyone tried Insurgency?

[tiny wharf]

If you want you can have it ez

[cobalt breach]

that's...not battlefield

[radiant prism]

Fair I guess

[quiet shell]

Not worth anymore

[tropic harbor]

Ok i bought ultimate :DDDD

[sterile tide]

Like cod zombies

[grand barn]

its the best version of battlefield though

[mighty cradle]

I thought about that the other day nice 👌

[quiet shell]

It's obvious though that this years CoD will bomb though right?

[cobalt breach]

i just really hope the skins don't give sight advantage

[tiny wharf]

Which is why Metro,Locker and Nohshar TDM are so popular

[cobalt breach]

but it might be too much to ask

[fickle vector]

I already know there's gonna be cowardly COD campers in tanks that'll get one team decimated

[grand barn]

mmmm, it wont bomb, but they potentually fucked up and made the next cod WW2 again

[mighty cradle]

I was thinking a battlefield version world of tanks

[radiant prism]

Tank campers don't win games

[quiet shell]

ww2 cod is a major fuck up

[sterile tide]

Yeah many and i’m afraid

[grand barn]

aerodrome attackers

[lost snow]

ultimate just gives you a few skins, art, and music

[radiant prism]

Get all the kills you want, I'll take the win stat over a few less deaths any day

[tiny wharf]

Attack heli campers and jets do tho

[cobalt breach]

i didn't even realise aerodrome had tanks

[hybrid steppe]

I hope you can adjust vehicle health. I want to make a boss fight mode where it's a tank with 1000% health vs a full team.

Battlefield Raid Boss

[radiant prism]

Because they're actually, more or less, "on" objectives

[quiet shell]

God I hope 2042 doesnt bring over the OP littlebirds from battlefield 4 into 2042

[dreamy hornet]

can BF2042 be GOTY?
Like i havent seen any GOTY level games in 2021 so far

[arctic grove]

No

[grand barn]

oh really? Play areodrome breakthrough on defense and you'll realize real quick XD its shit

[sterile tide]

Cod players are really toxic

[radiant prism]

back of the map tank campers are pretty much nothing more than glorified artillery

[fickle vector]

there's always tank campers, it ruins it for those tryin to PTFO and get the W

[radiant prism]

And don't have a whole lot of effect on their team's efficacy

[mighty cradle]

I hate that map with a passion

[cobalt breach]

yeah that's the thing, the tanks are so crap, it's usually taken out before i even have a chance to see things

[grand barn]

jets and helis are basically a floating turret which generates insane amounts of kills, so yeah

[arctic grove]

You mean game chat?

[grand barn]

nah m8, tanks are nuts if played correctly

[sterile tide]

Yea

[cobalt breach]

and if done right, can and will win you the wh ole game

[tiny wharf]

Cod will still make money but Battlefield May have the edge in sales this year

[arctic grove]

True

[radiant prism]

if

[quiet shell]

They might bring back the tank armor system from bfv so that tanks remain as powerful as they are but set a hard limit on how many a team can have

[grand barn]

well theres always that if lol

[arctic grove]

I highly doubt it.

[sterile tide]

Remember MW2 lobby vc holy shit

[cobalt breach]

that'll be a nice change

[arctic grove]

Oh I know. Mw2019 lobby is toxic as well

[radiant prism]

The average rank 20 I usually get on my team in the tank definitely isn't using that tank to its full potential by falling all the way to the back of the map anytime a recon throws a frag grenade at him

[mental bear]

yknow what I just realized about portal?

everyone complains about specialists

[lost snow]

CoD players don't know how to drive

[mental bear]

so you can just use portal to play without them

[mighty cradle]

You guys talking about tanks but if the aircraft is like BF1 😖

[quiet shell]

I liked how they handled tanks in Battlefield 5, actual threats on the battlefield and required actual teamwork to kill because one player wouldn't have enough firepower to destroy one on their own

[arctic grove]

Because BO4 did it & it was terrible

[mental bear]

Bo4 ain’t battlefield lol

[cobalt breach]

eh, one squad can usually down it from what i remember

[tiny wharf]

And leaving the tank to save himself instead of going down with it

[arctic grove]

I’m talking about specialists in general

[grand barn]

b04 specialists and bf 2042 specialists are entirely different

[quiet shell]

one squad but not one player

[grand barn]

functionally different

[cobalt breach]

yeah, and we're assuming the squad works together

[radiant prism]

Its not like they're really getting specialist weapons, we aren't going to have Gravity Spikes or some bullshit

[cobalt breach]

and not running in all directions

[arctic grove]

They look identical with their own power & weapons

[mental bear]

I don’t like the fact that specialists are characters, but I don’t mind the whole gadget system tied to it

[deep heart]

I mean we can make our own br id people want to play that lol

[mental bear]

I think it’s neat

change can be good

[lost snow]

be nice if BF had real portals, so you could teleport into other games/maps

[mental bear]

or it could be shit

[tiny wharf]

Yeah it’s just specific gadgets tailored towards them

[mental bear]

Guess we’ll see

[grand barn]

oh btw just gonna say right now these 2042 maps are going to be too big, even for 128p

[lost snow]

without exiting the game, finding another server, loading....

[grand barn]

gonna be a ghost town

[radiant prism]

People are freaking out over "specialists" just like people say future is a shit setting just because Infinite Warfare wasn't the best game ever (which is funny because the IW campaign was one of my personal favorites)

[grand barn]

I dont think people understand how large these maps actually are

[quiet shell]

I'm hoping 2042 will have maps that can be almost entirely leveled like in Bad Company 2, turn entire towns into a ruin by the end of the match

[radiant prism]

I'm honestly more worried about overcrowding than I am ghost-town-syndrome

[arctic grove]

How big is it? That would be a problem with 64vs64

[radiant prism]

I mean, take breakthrough

[grand barn]

no shot man, not on conquest surely

[grand barn]

as large as vikendi from pubg

[radiant prism]

Its already zerg-y enough on BFV, imagine that with twice the playercount now

[stiff pollen]

I’m literally about to sell my TF2 inventory to buy BF2042

[arctic grove]

Oh damn

[quiet shell]

When Battlefield 1 drops on Portals imagine the size of the bayonet charges

[radiant prism]

Kaleidoscope is only a little larger than Rotterdam though IIRC

[tiny wharf]

Well the fighting is gonna be over the objectives rather than random empty spots on the map

[hybrid steppe]

64 horses vs 1 Abrams

[stiff pollen]

Players are going to code in to make bayonet charges have janky hit boxes

[radiant prism]

That map's probably gonna be a clusterfuck, regardless of mode

[lost snow]

Just Cause 3 was 400 square miles; GRB is 100 square miles

[tiny wharf]

Even though Planetside 2 has like 2k people per server sometimes it also feels like a ghost town

[quiet shell]

Thats an issue I'm actually concerned about. The size of the maps causing longer range fights and battles happening over meaningless pieces of dirt instead of the objectives

[quiet shell]

Thats cause its not 2k a server anymore. it's 1200 with a 600 player limit on continents

[tiny wharf]

We just gotta wait and see and play for ourselves

[radiant prism]

Everyone's throwing around the 5.9km^2 metric, but forgetting that thats only 1 map out of 7, all of the other 6 of which are notably smaller. Breakaway might be a bit spread out...but I guarantee you we're gonna feel that +100% playercount a lot more often on the other maps

Ultimately though, we're just gonna have to wait and see

[lost snow]

thinking most people would be happy with 5..10 minute battles

[grand barn]

listen all I know is al sundan is empty as fuck with 64 people

and we're talking like 4 times the size of that

lol

[stiff pollen]

Al Sundan empty

Hamada empty

[grand barn]

panzerstorm empty

[radiant prism]

See, this is why I stick to Breakthrough

[grand barn]

I dont disagree

[stiff pollen]

3 maps where it’s kinda unfun to play as infy

[hybrid steppe]

Bruh you can't do shit in time that short in Battlefield

[grand barn]

add dom back

[radiant prism]

Breakthrough I think should be sick as fuck in 2042

[grand barn]

dom best gamemode

[radiant prism]

But we'll see

[austere sedge]

dom bf > dom cod

[mighty cradle]

I'm sure with 128p

[quiet shell]

I'm curious as to why PS4 and Xbox One can only have 64 players when Warzone on those consoles can do 150 players

[stiff pollen]

I mean shit, heligoland in BF1 is just generally unfun to play as infy and people vote that shit every time it comes up

But as soon as Albion comes in? They dodge it like the plague

[hybrid steppe]

Because ships are cool

[tiny wharf]

Dom in cod is just spawnrape with endless killstreaks

[radiant prism]

Isn't that just CoD in general?

[austere sedge]

dude fuck albion it's so asymmetrical

[quiet shell]

The Russian maps are the worst Battlefield 1 maps and you cant change my mind

[stiff pollen]

Pretty sure 1/3rd were designed by visceral lol

[radiant prism]

Certified BF1 moment

[arctic grove]

Battlefield 2069 should be in 144p

[cursive perch]

you guys ready for portal?

[tiny wharf]

Imagine they bring back THE BLOCK from Hardline with 128 players

[stiff pollen]

Tsaritsyn I heard was designed by visceral and I thiiink Volga or that other one was too

[austere sedge]

hell yeah bro

[quiet shell]

I wish I Back to Basics was still alive.

[torpid shuttle]

Ya

[radiant prism]

Honestly would love to get some Hardline content for Portal at some point

[stiff pollen]

I think Albions great but I’m biased because I only play it by playing bombers or fighting at the cannons

[austere sedge]

i thought viceral shut down before bf1 came out

[tiny wharf]

Anyone remember BF1 incursions?

[grand barn]

are you playing hardcore bf1

[hybrid steppe]

What was that map that's just an open field and was truly awful on Operations?

[stiff pollen]

Galicia

[arctic grove]

Good shit

[cursive perch]

All i wanna see is the remastered bf 1942 maps man so awesome

[radiant prism]

Somehow my friend found a lobby

[stiff pollen]

They got shuttered after

[radiant prism]

I hardly play BF1 anymore

[austere sedge]

I've played this, i know exactly what you're talking about. Literally just an open field. Unplayable.

[grand barn]

hardcore bf1 is just torture lmfaooo

[torpid shuttle]

!when

[hybrid steppe]

Yup that one, that was just giga aids

[quiet shell]

Nope, they shut down in 2017

[mighty cradle]

I want more night maps

[radiant prism]

Not gonna disagree with you there

[worn glacier]

I hope there are some normal conquest matches on old maps with old classes

[radiant prism]

But damn is using a bolt action in hardcore fucking s t u p i d

[torpid shuttle]

200% damage server is really fun.

[storm sentinel]

i think they should learn from EA use more A.I Bots put it on COD Warzone coz i dont see any players

[tiny wharf]

Yeah when they were making that open world Star Wars game😭😭

Because EA thought people don’t play single player games

[stiff pollen]

And now Ubisoft is making it

[quiet shell]

According to a former dev the game was going to suck and the development was a shitshow.

[grand barn]

hardcore more like get 1 shot and die

[austere sedge]

i was literally just watching videos about the nighttime Pearl Market, Golmud Railway and Shanghai maps that never made it to the full game. WHY dice WHY weren't they included in Night Ops?????

[stiff pollen]

Well, Massive is, but Ubisoft publishing

[radiant prism]

Like...all the mfs who say hardcore is TRUE BF and takes so much more skill than core can fuck right off, spamming bolt actions is just broken as shit in HC and no one can convince me otherwise. Source: I spam bolt actions on HC

[torpid shuttle]

Similar with Enlisted game

[steel forge]

i love how noone is talking about battlefield 2042 IN the 2042 channel #general chat people

[hybrid steppe]

I want to make a milsim server, one hit kill, no hud at all, slower movement, friendly fire and all that

[tiny wharf]

Just hope Ubisofts Star Wars Project isn’t a fuck up

[stiff pollen]

It will be post launch

[mighty cradle]

I honestly have no clue

[stiff pollen]

Same team that brought you hits like Division 1 and 2

[grand barn]

thats called cope. Hardcore is significantly easier than core. It's laughable really lol. They can play it, but dont say its harder

[austere sedge]

:(

[lost snow]

you need to realize that, due to their size and complexity, all games sold now are Public Beta

[quiet shell]

I remember when people joked about Battlefield 4 being Betafield until like 2014 when it's 1.6 update came out and fixed the game

[radiant prism]

Holy fuck its 4AM

almost

help

[hybrid steppe]

Sleep is for the weak

collapses

[radiant prism]

fucking dies

[worn glacier]

I wonder why we don’t have cool servers in bfv, like 24/7 metro or others

We just have shit ones

[stiff pollen]

Because they don’t last too long

[steel forge]

holy fuck look another post thats not ontopic of the channel

[radiant prism]

because CG's were too little too late

[stiff pollen]

Once last person leaves the server closes

In order to relieve EA servers

[lost snow]

the goal is to get you to buy the game, not play it

[quiet shell]

Become a moderator and do something about it then

[fossil flax]

stop mini modding

[hybrid steppe]

Well, getting people to stick around and pay for battlepass is another

[arctic grove]

the subreddit is so shit rn

[radiant prism]

The subreddit is always shit

[tiny wharf]

What’s happened?

[radiant prism]

Reddit is always shit

[next onyx]

Honestly portal sounds like an extension of server set ups from bf4

[radiant prism]

This is like RSP 2.0

Without the R

[arctic grove]

I'm fucking tired of dumbasses pointing out how people didn't like the bfv trailer because it has woman in it and how people like the 2042 despite people doing crazy shit

[next onyx]

Yeah

[tiny wharf]

Yeah because people were upset that they had less control over their servers

[arctic grove]

these memes are made by literal brainlets

https://www.reddit.com/r/Battlefield/comments/oqctss/title/

[radiant prism]

BFV bad, upvotes on the left

[lost snow]

And they don't have to spend the money to create a lot of new content, just reuse the old stuff

[hybrid steppe]

I think the reveal trailer was just a bad trailer in general

[radiant prism]

Edit: Thank you kind stranger for the reddit gold!

[worn glacier]

Yeah is half boomers complaining about the game and insulting who enjoys the game, and half noobs enjoying the game

[hybrid steppe]

for BFV

[arctic grove]

it was

[radiant prism]

The reveal trailer was an outlier, its literally one bad trailer amongst a bunch of actually good trailers

[arctic grove]

2042 is going in the completely opposite direction and they still compare the 2

actual idiots

[radiant prism]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2sGwxgt_Ki8 Like...watch this trailer and tell me it doesn't fucking s l a p

[tiny wharf]

The other trailers still didn’t get me excited for the game at all

[stiff pollen]

something something I don’t even think the people who made BFV are there anymore

[worn glacier]

Opposite to what? Sorry I don’t understand

[arctic grove]

imagine comparing a game that's literally supposed to be an open sandbox full of shit to do to a ww2 game

[hot garden]

good

[tiny wharf]

Didn’t even get the game until a month ago and I don’t like it

[stiff pollen]

I heard attrition rate in the studio kinda went up after the game got panned

[radiant prism]

watch what I just posted and tell me its not a pretty good trailer

[arctic grove]

100%

but the 2042 comparisons are fucking dumb

[worn glacier]

Opposite to bfv? I agree in that case

[arctic grove]

yes bfv

[worn glacier]

K

[radiant prism]

Also BFV may have had thematic consistency issues but at least its not nearly as bad as Cold War's issues there

[arctic grove]

there was another one too

a post

https://www.reddit.com/r/Battlefield/comments/o66vn2/i_want_my_realism/

[somber nebula]

I still dont get why people have bfv

[arctic grove]

this one

Obamna soda confirms amogus bf2042 confirmed sus

also stupid as hell

[somber nebula]

I had it for a month and it was alot of fun

Because theres so many clueless people

[stiff pollen]

IT WAS FUN. 5.2 happened

[worn glacier]

Because it was fun once

[arctic grove]

fax

[arctic grove]

I mainly hate it because of the hackers and enemy visibility

[radiant prism]

5.2 was reverted what, 2 years ago now?

[arctic grove]

well I don't actually hate it

[somber nebula]

Cheaters*

[arctic grove]

I quite like the game

but those things are the worst things about it

[dim pumice]

Visibility is a big issue

[stiff pollen]

“Reverted” in the sense they went back like 90% on most changes

[tiny wharf]

If that was the reveal trailer and the executive ceo of EA didn’t talk shit about the people that play the game then I would’ve had some interest in it

[lost snow]

i haven't played BFV in so long, i forgot it was about WWII

[stiff pollen]

The vision they had on the entire game was changed due to “community data they have”

[radiant prism]

The only thing they kept was less damage at long range

[arctic grove]

the reveal trailer literally made people hate it in 2 minutes

that takes some skill man

[tiny wharf]

And if they actually had interesting battles and maps I would’ve cared

[arctic grove]

whoever made that trailer sure is talented

[wispy vault]

from what i understand, the creative director behind bfv was a bit of an idiot

[arctic grove]

he was

[hybrid steppe]

Alan Kertz, a total hack

[radiant prism]

BFV is a textbook case of there being no such thing as a second first impression

[stiff pollen]

Pretty sure he scedaddled after launch

[worn glacier]

Now is type 2a/ smg shotting snipers from 200 meters away and planes boring cuz aaa

[wispy vault]

yeah he's gone now

[arctic grove]

but anyway my rant is over

people who make these memes are fucking dumb

[wispy vault]

he posted a salty tweet when bf2042 was revealed

[arctic grove]

and should take a mental test

[stiff pollen]

I was invited to the Alpha for BFV and it was night and day from the current version

[arctic grove]

and the ones that upvote them

[wispy vault]

something like "oh look, the bf project i had nothing to do with" as if that was supposed to be a bad thing for that game

[hybrid steppe]

He was also the guy who came up with the revolutionary feature in BF3 called

S U P P R E S S I O N

[worn glacier]

Yeah, basically the prologue is what I wanted to see in multiplayer

[wispy vault]

dude wanted to bring firestorm armor plates into regular bfv modes

[dim pumice]

Ugh supression

[stiff pollen]

So different, such a compelling direction too, totally saw what they were going for gameplay wise

[radiant prism]

To be fair, there are some fairly interesting maps there IMO. For one thing the Battles of Narvik and Crete are both major battles that rarely get covered in games. Not to mention the Battle of Iwo Jima and the Battle of Provence, which was part of Operation Dragoon (AKA Overlord's southern cousin).

[worn glacier]

Make firestorm free to compete with warzone

[radiant prism]

And thats amongst a bunch of other settings

[wispy vault]

anyway i dont really know the details just what danny showed me

[tiny wharf]

But they immediately retconned that to fit that campaign mission with the Norwegian teenage girl and her mom

[raw vale]

[wispy vault]

i think he used to get into it with him on twitter until he got blocked lmaooo

[worn glacier]

I agree on Iwo Jima and Provence, best maps

[radiant prism]

Danny is a bit of a trendchaser, he just posts whatever gets him the most likes/upvotes on a given site

Just rides circlejerks

[stiff pollen]

Did you know Danny is a doctor

[radiant prism]

doctor sex

[stiff pollen]

I’m not joking

[worn glacier]

I hate that poo story

[wispy vault]

no he's not rofl

[stiff pollen]

He told me he’s a doctor

[wispy vault]

did he really

[stiff pollen]

Yea

[wispy vault]

well

[tiny wharf]

The Pacific maps and Operation Underground are the only maps where I had fun playing. I didn’t enjoy playing any of the vanilla maps besides that one with the flower fields and panzerstorm on Breakthrough

[stiff pollen]

He said “I’m a doctor” when I asked him what he does all day that lets him post battlefield information the second it comes out

[wispy vault]

bit of a misrepresentation of the truth but im not gonna spill his RL deets in here

[stiff pollen]

[worn glacier]

Panzerstorm had potential, but you can have fun only with tanks, infantry is boring

[radiant prism]

I don't mind Panzerstorm tbh

[lost snow]

it's easy to get carried away when coding

[radiant prism]

I kinda like that sorta dynamic

[dim pumice]

I like hamada

Jk

[arctic grove]

Battlefield 14th century Mongolia

[worn glacier]

I want a 20 v 20 tanks on panzerstorm

[stiff pollen]

BFV’s mistake was that they somehow made infantry boring to play if any vehicles were on une map

[arctic grove]

They really gonna let us make anything we want in portals. Except a BR 🤣💀

[tiny wharf]

Kinda like BF4

[radiant prism]

Doesn't mean we should tho

[worn glacier]

And on only infantry maps nobody plays something that’s not medic

[wispy vault]

wheres lemon64k, i need to trigger him some more by saying that i think some russian coding genius will find a way to make a BR in portal anyway

[arctic grove]

Not according to this https://www.theloadout.com/battlefield-2042/battle-royale-portal?amp

[radiant prism]

Banned I think

[dim pumice]

Dice really dislikes br I think

[arctic grove]

Mhm

[stiff pollen]

Which is weird because this is coming off of BF1 where infantry, planes and tanks and horses all were on the same map and there were few places where it was truly unfun to play infy

[dim pumice]

Fair enough I say

[radiant prism]

Ok I need to fucking sleep

[arctic grove]

Lemon got banned ? Rip

[radiant prism]

Its 4AM and I can hear colors

[wispy vault]

unless your name is videogamedunkey

[worn glacier]

I also do so…

[compact gorge]

Portal is the greatest thing

[arctic grove]

It's just weird because BF1/V already basically had BR

[compact gorge]

I bet you could make a battle royal with the Portal rules

[tiny wharf]

Bf1?

[stiff pollen]

You can’t

[arctic grove]

Granted it was small scale like fireteam from cold war but it was still BR

[compact gorge]

oh

[wispy vault]

you probably cant do things with weapon pickups or a circle zone

[stiff pollen]

They stated they put rules in place to prevent it

[wispy vault]

but I BET you can make something like a BR without those rules

[compact gorge]

I bet that in the future they will make it so you can make a battle royal in portal

[stiff pollen]

In the blog post

[worn glacier]

Yeah that was balanced, not like in bf5 where if u take a mmg u are useless

[dim pumice]

Br doesn't work well with battlefield because vehicles

[compact gorge]

Wait, really?

[arctic grove]

Warzone has vehicles

[stiff pollen]

Yeah

[arctic grove]

So does Fortnite

[wispy vault]

nothing like a jet or a main battle tank

[dim pumice]

Does it have tanks?

[stiff pollen]

Very strange of them to put in place specific rules to prevent BR in portal

[compact gorge]

Maybe technical limitations?

[worn glacier]

If they let us make the rules, we are going to balance it

[radiant prism]

Because fuck BR

Seriously, fuck it

Keep it out

[compact gorge]

BR is fun, stop hatin'

[wispy vault]

i dont think its quite like that, i think they just didnt add any of the modifiers in the game logic editor that would let you create BR conditions

not like

limits

just not the right tools

[radiant prism]

Firestorm was a good experiment that didn't work out, lets not go all Warzone here

[arctic grove]

You have a point but how many actually gonna be using jets lol. You prob won't see more than 10 being used per match

Maybe 20 tops

[stiff pollen]

Lemme find the exact quote, it was something like “we know players want to create BR, but the tools aren’t there to do so”

[dim pumice]

It's too far from bf core gameplay probably for portal

[wispy vault]

all it takes is one general lvl 100 russian jet spammer to completely turn a BR match on its head

and rack up 40 kills

[compact gorge]

Oh, well that sounds like they might want to do it in the future

[spark acorn]

It is for a like 1-2 games in, then it just gets boring and repetitive.

[dim pumice]

Bf is about team on team battles which is very different from br

[compact gorge]

Personal opinions are a thing, I find it fun

[wispy vault]

that's what i'm thinking

honestly

[stiff pollen]

There will be some limitations such as not being able to build a Battle Royale mode (yes, we knew you would ask)

[worn glacier]

I think that a 30 players br can still be possible

[arctic grove]

Eventually BR is gonna die. Battlefield may as well start the new trend. You already know within the next 5 years we gonna see cod's version of portal

[stiff pollen]

In the blog post itself

[wispy vault]

warcraft made dota, source engine mods made CS, arma made dayz -> BR

[spark acorn]

Yeah, personally it's fun until it doesn't.

[compact gorge]

Ah, so they didn't specifically prevent it, just didn't build it

[worn glacier]

Just make a ffa with no respawn

[compact gorge]

Well no shit, that's how anything works. Some people just find it fun for longer

[dim pumice]

Does bf have ffa?

[spark acorn]

What a rude answer, but alright.

[arctic grove]

Sup

[stiff pollen]

Keep in mind, dice also said that frostbite was too hard to mod and that’s why BF3 has no modding tools (and yet BF3 has project Venice or whatever with a working BR mode)

[compact gorge]

Did they confirm anything about how many bots you can have in Portal? Jackfrags video implied you could do 3 players vs 124 bots, is that true?

[spark acorn]

eh pretty sure you can put up ANY modes for portal, so ffa is definitely happening.

[stiff pollen]

Yea

[compact gorge]

Sweet

[stiff pollen]

You can have just you and 127 bots

[worn glacier]

Yeah

[stiff pollen]

All funneled to try and kill you

[compact gorge]

127 bots?

[arctic grove]

That would be easy. Bots are stupid lol

[spark acorn]

we're still geting EXP from these bots right?

[stiff pollen]

Yeah

[arctic grove]

Uh

[stiff pollen]

They also said they have limits in place to “prevent exploitation for XP and battle pass levels”

Which I’m assuming is them saying they’ll be banning creations that are used to grind for XP

[worn glacier]

Maybe you can’t put loot, shields and airspawn, but you can make a br by doing some changes to a free for all

[arctic grove]

I can't tell if you are showing pride and flipping us off or saying fuck LGBT. I'm assuming by the swastika in your name tho it's the latter

[dim pumice]

Yeah I think they lower/remove xp for heavily modified servers like bf4 ranked/unranked

[arctic grove]

that guy is gone

🧐

good riddance

Yup

[wispy vault]

i imagine that if you make yourself super powerful and the enemy bots super weak then you get no/little exp

something like that

[arctic grove]

yeah

there are modifiers

[compact gorge]

They confirmed this

[worn glacier]

Lol, you can agree or disagree with lgbt, but this isn’t the place to talk about it

[stiff pollen]

Just put yourself in a tank or help and go ham on bots like people do on siege of Shanghai in 4

[wispy vault]

yeah that's what I was responding to lol was just thinking of a use case scenario for that system

[arctic grove]

mhm

[compact gorge]

Existing isn't something to disagree with

Anyway

[dim pumice]

I wonder how good the bot ai is

[arctic grove]

probably shouldn't spark that debate in here

[compact gorge]

From the sounds of it they did put some good effort into making good AI

[worn glacier]

Yeah

[wispy vault]

imagine disagreeing with straight facts smh. actually more like gay facts lmaooo. ANYWAY.

i thought the quality vs quantity mode in particular looked sick

how unique is that?

[arctic grove]

sure hope so

bfv ai sucks

[compact gorge]

oof

[arctic grove]

for the campaign

[wispy vault]

i've never had that kind of cross-era asymmetrical warfare in an fps before

[worn glacier]

Bots in bfv campaign are pretty good, in bf4 ai is sht

[stiff pollen]

Assassins creed odyssey tried doing this where they added a forge mode to allow people to create their own missions and people just used them to farm XP Because the leveling and XP system of the game was god awful (and there was micro transactions in place to speed it up)

[compact gorge]

Yeah, it's gonna be crazy fun

[dim pumice]

Wasn't there a presentation about ai last year?

[arctic grove]

well that was ac odyssey

[stiff pollen]

And people of course bypassed it

[arctic grove]

that game is awful

and you're talking about ubisoft

[stiff pollen]

I’m saying people will get around this

[arctic grove]

who can't implement ideas

this is dice

[stiff pollen]

Who also can’t ban hackers

[arctic grove]

they've always pushed technical and creative limits in their games

[wispy vault]

and then they went overboard with valhalla where you become overleveled way too easily and the game becomes a joke even on the highest difficulty smh

[compact gorge]

Well, I am sure people will start trying to abuse portal for XP, but they already confirmed they are adjusting progression gain based on the settings for Portal

So I imagine they will actively chase abusers by tweaking those adjustements

[stiff pollen]

I’m going to use the coop/bot mode for XP for sure man

[worn glacier]

I don’t care about xp, if In portal everything is unlocked….

[stiff pollen]

Some days I need XP but don’t feel like playing with sweats

[dim pumice]

Does bf5 have a level cap?

[stiff pollen]

500

50 is standard and then everything after is cosmetic and company coins

[iron wagon]

how much hours is this? 3000?

[compact gorge]

Well, the creator of the playlist will be able to limit what is unlocked

I imagine you can limit it to what people have unlocked

[stiff pollen]

I have a friend that’s like 450

I think he has maybe 500-600 hours

Most people I know played their amount of time in BFV before they added the extra 450 ranks

[dim pumice]

Wait did it only launch with 50?

[stiff pollen]

I myself have 480 so hours and I’m only level 73 or some shit

Yea

And it was bugged

After level 50 you didn’t earn company coin so for months nobody could unlock anything

[dim pumice]

Weird

[stiff pollen]

Yep, you had people who were level 50 and had fully leveled tanks but couldn’t afford to buy the upgrades for them

[compact gorge]

oof

[dim pumice]

Probably didn't think that through lol

[stiff pollen]

You can apply that to most of BFV

[compact gorge]

Sometimes BF1 and BFV feels like experiments while they where waiting on certain tech to mature

[stiff pollen]

“Hmm the players are retuning to the game with the launch of the pacific”
“Push the weapon rebalance”
“But the community saw the patch notes and hates it?”
“JUST DO IT”

[dim pumice]

That's probably why they made portal lol

Just let the community balance it themselves

[lost snow]

Classic

[compact gorge]

I think people get caught up with balance updates a bit too much, but the fact that you can now just find a portal server using the balance you want is great

[raw vale]

you can recreate band of brothers moment here

[stiff pollen]

It was more so a 6 shot revolver was out ranging an FG42

[dim pumice]

It helps with niche modes like hardcore too

[lost snow]

the only way to achieve balance is to have the same two armies fight each other

[dim pumice]

On a perfectly symmetrical map

Balance is overrated anyway

Just make it fun and balanced enough to not be gulf of oman bf4

[compact gorge]

Is there any information if only one team can have gungame rules, and the rest play with a regular loadout, for like a hoard like mode where the one person keeps getting upgrades automatically?

[stiff pollen]

You can balance one team differently to the other

[compact gorge]

Awesome

[stiff pollen]

IIRC it’s the same logic they use to create the game

[slim quiver]

all im hoping for is that i dont need to play portal to have good gunplay

[stiff pollen]

So you can have one team locked to only WW2 guns for gun game and the other locked to 2042 guns, or even better, have to get kills using only vehicles

[dim pumice]

Tuk Tuk vs pistols

[compact gorge]

Yo, tuk tuk vs pistols, that better be possible

[opal compass]

[compact gorge]

oooo

[wispy vault]

should be possible yeah

[compact gorge]

Yes, this sounds so perfect

[dim pumice]

If they let you spawn only tuk tuks then yeah

[stiff pollen]

There will be some omega head level guys who figure out the logic to code some crazy shit a month in I bet

[compact gorge]

tuk tuk vs abrams tank

tuk tuk wins

[tired cargo]

If you can do tank only then I’m sure

[lost snow]

flying Tuk Tuks...

[compact gorge]

Oh yeah, we gonna see some crazy shit

[wispy vault]

same thing happened in dota arcade

bunch of random chinese 5head guys invented a whole ass new genre

(autochess)

[lost snow]

ala Garry's Mod

[compact gorge]

Oh yeah, that's how auto chess came around

[next onyx]

It wouldn't be dice if we didn't get easter eggs in portal

[compact gorge]

Yooo, if we can make chess in Portal

[wispy vault]

better be able to spawn penguins in portal

[compact gorge]

YES, Penguins in portal or riot

[lost snow]

tuktuks with wingsuits

[compact gorge]

Y'all think making auto chess would be possible? lol, or just regular chess

[dim pumice]

Depending on how flexible it is someone will work it out

[next onyx]

I hope what they do is release it a day early for us all so we can fiddle around with it

[lost snow]

wondering if you can get a tuktuk dropped via rocket chute

[compact gorge]

Maybe they release it during the beta

And keep it up

[next onyx]

Doubt it

[stiff pollen]

There’s a play test coming up

That’s likely what it’s for

[lost snow]

rocket chute would prob blast it a mile high

[compact gorge]

hmm

[stiff pollen]

Well, likely different tests for the three modes

[twilit lantern]

whens the beta again

[wispy vault]

i dont think making an autobattler makes a lot of sense in an fps engine

but who knows

maybe you can program bots to behave like chess units

[compact gorge]

Hmm

[wispy vault]

we'll have to see

[compact gorge]

Yeah, we'll have to wait and see

[wispy vault]

no date yet

[compact gorge]

But like, even without that, Portal just sound insane

[wispy vault]

yeah for sure portal sounds fucking dope

[twilit lantern]

oh thanks

[wispy vault]

very exciting times for bf fans

they really went all-out for this one

[dim pumice]

I wonder if you can mess with level boundaries in portal

[compact gorge]

Very exciting for FPS fans in general I think

[manic cradle]

Hey folks any pc experts here I need a consult

[wispy vault]

https://tenor.com/view/rock-lee-game-time-gif-5100879

DICE rn

[compact gorge]

You can, Jackfrags' mentioned in his video you can choose smallert parts of the maps. It sounded pre-determined though but you can def change how big the play area is

[wispy vault]

yeah the example he used was 128 players with RPGs on just the toll booth area on caspian border

which is nuts

but hilarious

[dim pumice]

OK nice

[lost snow]

be nice if you could teleport to diff parts of the map

with time delay b4 next teleporter active

[dim pumice]

It's sort of a shame you can't do custom maps or anything

[lost snow]

agreed

map and path editor

[latent acorn]

Are rendezook russian?

[dim pumice]

Yeah I remember in gran turismo 6 you could do some crazy stuff with the track editor

[dim pumice]

I think it's just rendezvous + bazooka

If you mean the word

[upper sage]

Helicopter rendezook https://youtu.be/s1-sdrjr2lA?t=194

[idle crater]

roqstar? xd

you know her? ;D

[grim aspen]

I want a free camera so I can make battles like tabs… that would be sick imo

[dim pumice]

That would be sick

They should bring back battlerecorder from bf2

[strong edge]

I just want to play now. A few months still seems like ages after seeing what the portal will be capable of.

[lavish shadow]

Idk how hard this would be in the technical side but I would really really love if dice this time can implement a system which would record the whole game and then users can go into it, use free cam and some cinematic tools

Imagine the amount of content that can be made with that 😍

[strong edge]

Maybe something that will come further down the line.

[lavish shadow]

Yeah

I just hope there's enoigh cinematic tools in the spectator mode for 2042 as there were in 5 and 1

[strong edge]

Once portal is up and running I feel like it will just open the flood gates for content

[lavish shadow]

Hahaha

For sure

So many possibilities

Cant wait for 128 player noshar hardxore

[strong edge]

They are going to be well ahead of the competition now

[lavish shadow]

Content wise they basically won the game of the year - so far

Time.to see how it all plays out

The scary part

[strong edge]

Yeah I’m always sceptical especially around launch day. Have been burnt so many times recently as many have.

[lavish shadow]

Yeah :(

[strong edge]

It will be fine 😉🤞

[lavish shadow]

For sure, and even if it's not, I think it's fine cuz they can always change it

Unless it's big things

I mean balance wise and ttk wise it should be ok

I just hopeeee that sniping is satisfying ahha

[strong edge]

Yeah I can live with silly funny glitches but not game breaking stuff.

Well if sniping is like bf5 but with some better tweaks it could be wicked

Yet 😉

[spark acorn]

Damn I would like to ruin your joke but I cant.

[arctic grove]

Finished downloading the Pre-Ordered bit already.

60GB

As soon as it drops, I'm ready.

[spark acorn]

60gb? damn okay.

[arctic grove]

ik rip, I'm depressed as fuck.

[strong edge]

👍

[strong edge]

Could of been a lot more to be fair

[arctic grove]

well bf4 with updates is only 38GB

40 smthn for B

[tiny wharf]

Watch it just be 60 gigs for one of the modes

And then 60 gigs for hazard zone

[arctic grove]

nah its only 60GB

We all know trees speaks vietnamese, but wait until the mountain speaks filipino

[tiny wharf]

And another 60 for portal

Like what cod MW does

[arctic grove]

I already downloaded it

[tiny wharf]

Well hopefully it stays 60

[arctic grove]

well that will be before updates

after updates it will end at 80GB props

GTA is only 75GB

[tiny wharf]

Meanwhile over at cod Warzone

[spark acorn]

cuz they suck

[strong edge]

Ha ha yeah nothing compares to that in size

[stiff spruce]

is origin cooking up a good anti cheat after the source code leaks?

[strong edge]

This is the one thing that worries me. They have said nothing about what anti cheat will be in place.

[stiff spruce]

I have bf3 all the way to bf5 on pc and the anti cheat was dog shit on all of them

[strong edge]

Yep 😔

[stiff spruce]

if battlefield 2042 is cross platform it could change but idk

[spark acorn]

it is

[stiff spruce]

bet money EA just recycles Punkbuster and calls it a day

[strong edge]

Surely the must be watching warzone with one eye and be aware if they don’t do better they could drive people away esp casual players

[stiff spruce]

im excited for the graphics though it will be a real test for the 3000 series

[novel crypt]

hope the anti cheat is up to the mark in bf 2042

[celest turtle]

Let's just hope it launches smoother than before. All I want is a stable game to enjoy at launch.

Seriously anti-cheat working effectively is kind of a secondary priority to me.
Plus have you guys seen that ML capture card aim-assist cheat?
No anti-cheat that exists can defend that

[sterile tide]

Punk buster cries in the corner

[bleak nebula]

punk buster was terrible lol

[sterile tide]

Nostalgia cannot be achieved without “you have been kicked by punk buster”

[strong edge]

Hopefully what ever they have is more advanced then that!

[tame cobalt]

[mellow hornet]

should i buy bf2042 on origin or steam?

like how will i get the digital soundtrack and shit

[wispy vault]

wouldnt surprise me if those files are only the files for the open beta, which i imagine will only be the all-out warfare mode and not portal or hazard zone

[arctic grove]

battlefield 2042 will be a good game

[shut flax]

What is this new Battlefield 2042 Portal thing supposed to be?

[arctic grove]

there are bf5 weapons and skins

[strong edge]

Yeah totally

[arctic grove]

I downloaded the bit with the Portal connected.

it would be possible to transfer bf5 skins to battlefield 2042 ?

[vast mirage]

dice fix anticheat pls i beg u

[wispy vault]

how do you know?

[arctic grove]

Xbox pre-order

[wispy vault]

that doesnt answer my question

[arctic grove]

I downloaded it already

[wispy vault]

how do you know that the portal assets are included in that download

where does it say that

[arctic grove]

because it says

any admins here ?

in the description

[wispy vault]

do you mind sharing what the description says exactly?

verbatim?

im curious

[arctic grove]

it would be possible to transfer bf5 skins to battlefield 2042 ?

[wispy vault]

uh, no

[arctic grove]

im not on my xbox rn

why lol

[wispy vault]

because it's a new game so they want you to buy new skins

you've never been able to share skins between games before

[arctic grove]

never been able to do that with any Ea games, even Battlefront, so ea is able to earn more cash.

[strong edge]

It’s probably just for the landing screen for the portal, the content won’t be ready yet surely

[arctic grove]

but 1 or 2 skin ?

would be good

[mellow hornet]

should i buy bf2042 on origin or steam?
like how will i get the digital soundtrack and shit

[wispy vault]

both versions have the same content @mellow hornet

both platforms, rather

[arctic grove]

Both are equally good.

Depends what discounts you get on certain platforms.

[wispy vault]

im gonna buy it on steam but thats just because i like having all my games on there and launching things from there, and so that it properly tracks my playtime and shit

but there are no differences really

[arctic grove]

Like I got a 10£ discount on xbox

[wispy vault]

steam launches the game through a stripped down origin client anyway

[arctic grove]

Yeah.

[wispy vault]

no, that wouldn't be good

because then you'd already have skins you like and that means you won't buy new ones

[arctic grove]

i will buy battle pass

lol

[mellow hornet]

cheers mate

[arctic grove]

rn im choosing what new gamertag to choose.

Im looking for more of a Germanish name

or Scottish

Ze Charlie is the only one I can get so far.

[wispy vault]

Obersturmfuhrer MacDonald

[arctic grove]

I say caracter Elite skins

would be fun

[wispy vault]

to use in portal?

[arctic grove]

ye

[wispy vault]

because you definitely won't get to run around as a ww2 soldier in the all-out warfare mode

oh yeah

actually i could see that

but still

probably not

[arctic grove]

bf2042 portal are every battlefield

[wispy vault]

not every battlefield

just 1942, bfbc2 and bf3

[arctic grove]

found my name

Widerhall

bf5 too

Echo in German

[wispy vault]

no

portal has no bf5 content

just 1942

[arctic grove]

😦

[wispy vault]

not yet anyway

they will add more stuff to portal after launch

[arctic grove]

can't wait to play bf 2042

I wish we got 1943 content.

I love that game.

[wispy vault]

its not really that different from 1942 content though

is it

[arctic grove]

1942 is basically bfv

But older

Same Era
Same weapons

[wispy vault]

different classes and gadgets though

[arctic grove]

Hell some of the uniforms on the soldiers looked exactly like bfv

I cant wait for the Guided Missle to come back.

we can't personalise every clothes

it would be good if we can personalise like bf5

not class but only clothes

maps/ environment / texture was very nice in portal trailer

[pine roost]

Has anyone here ever gotten closed alpha to a bf game?

[wispy vault]

i think @stiff pollen was in bf5 alpha

somebody mentioned something like that earlier today

i think it was him

[distant swallow]

Does anyone know if I can play in PS4 and PS5 with the Standard edition?

Or should I buy the gold edition?

[pine roost]

There’s this post on Reddit of someone getting an ea playtesting notification but I thought they just send the invitation directly

[bleak nebula]

rewatched jackfrags video and realised remastered maps also will have weather options

[arctic grove]

Helicopter

[wispy vault]

thanks for the reminder, just signed up for EA playtesting

you never know 😛

[wispy vault]

the FAQ on the site says they send emails

to invite ppl for playtesting

[sudden otter]

is there more reveal coming on 26 or 27?

[wispy vault]

dont think there is anything announced

[elder mango]

If you want to get both version with one purchase you have to get gold edition or higher

[torpid shuttle]

I really have question about Battle Pass. Will progress restricted for All out warfare or Hazard zone only?

[west osprey]

people who complained about lack of naval warfare dont need to worry anymore lol

[lucid goblet]

More info maybe at gamescom in august but as yet nothing has been announced.

[arctic grove]

Will Companion app be linked?

I hope so ngl.

E

[lucid goblet]

There's no official news on a companion app currently.

[crystal lark]

suprisingly

bf1942 has good graphics

[sudden otter]

ahh ok ok...tnx for the info.......

[crystal lark]

for a 2002 game

(kinda)

[sudden otter]

If the graphic is tooooo good then my pc not gonna run it -_-

[novel crypt]

hahha

[topaz crown]

If I pre-order now will it take my money? (Xbox)

Or 14, days before?

[gritty flower]

it will take you're money

[topaz crown]

Straight away?

[gritty flower]

or at least it does it on steam

[wispy vault]

you pay the moment you pre-order

[gritty flower]

yes

[wispy vault]

you basically just buy the game now

and add it to your library

and it'll be available to play when it releases

(also you will get earlier access to the open beta if you buy the gold or ultimate edition)

[topaz crown]

When I pre ordered COD it didn't take it till 14 days before

[lucid goblet]

interesting looking gun

[jovial jay]

Yea your money goes straight to EA's pocket while they rub their hand and laugh menacingly

[wispy vault]

where did you buy it

and which payment method did you use

[next isle]

That's the BC2 dart, no?

[topaz crown]

Xbox store and digital

[mortal raft]

That's the Bad Company tracker

[bleak nebula]

tracer gun right

[wispy vault]

wait

let me think

could it be

...

the tracer gun?

[jovial jay]

[lucid goblet]

Ah yes! my memory is terrible so don't remember it haha

[wispy vault]

weird

then idk bro

maybe xbox digital store is different from other stores

[bleak nebula]

the one they shot the plane with in the trailer

[wispy vault]

the world war 2 era plane, I might add

god portal is gonna be fun

[topaz crown]

Very strange, just wondering if they take it differently or something

[wispy vault]

im a pc gamer and i know for a fact that if i pre-order a game now

[jovial jay]

Cant wait to take spitfire against jet

[wispy vault]

and i pay with my bank account

(iDEAL, dutch payment method)

the money is deducted right away

[bleak nebula]

samee

[jovial jay]

Try that in warthunder and you'll get slammed in 5sec lol

[bleak nebula]

in battlefield kinda expect the spitfire to fly almost as fast as jets

[wispy vault]

you might get slammed in 5sec in portal too

dice said they are deliberately not balancing things to be equally powerful

so 2042 specialists are stronger than ww2 soldiers

better weapons, better gadgets, etc

[jovial jay]

Yeah would make an interesting coop game mode

[wispy vault]

that was one of the modes they showed at ea play

4 specialists with a helicopter against like

32 1942 soldiers

looks hella fun

[gritty flower]

battlefield can we get battlefield 1 kill sound on battlefield 2042 dice please

[flint radish]

does anyone know if the bad company 2 maps are gonna be the full huge Rush mode size?

[jovial jay]

This give me Saxton Hale server vibe from Tf2, basically a community made boss fight mode

[wispy vault]

@flint radish bigger than rush

valparaiso is getting a low-tide version that is larger than the bc2 map ever was

to better suit 128 players

for example

[flint radish]

oh shit

what about arica harbour? have they made that bigger to accommodate 128 players or nah

cos either way it will be fun

[wispy vault]

maybe, idk

[atomic cosmos]

https://reddit.com/r/battlefield2042/comments/oqfrmi/greenman_gaming_20_off_sale_this_weekend_pc/

[wispy vault]

jackfrags talked about valparaiso specifically in his video

didnt mention the other map

[arctic grove]

All maps have been remade from scratch

[wispy vault]

50/50

[arctic grove]

It's gonna be a lot bigger than before

[wispy vault]

arica harbor was such a good fucking map

[jovial jay]

Either a long list of ban like what I see daily in Siege

[wispy vault]

havent played bfbc2 in 6 years or something and i still remember the exact layout of the town area

[jovial jay]

Or rampage of cheaters like I see in Battlefront 2

[flint radish]

i went back and played bfbc2, its just sadly not how i remember it as we are used to such good net code and well polished games now lol. this is why im so hyped for this (my fave battlefield)

[wispy vault]

where the drone computer station was, all the gunfights between the ppl in the second story houses and the construction site, the construction site high on the slope where you always had 3 camping snipers, weaving in and out of the garages on the street level

[wispy vault]

yeah i have that problem as well

hell the netcode was frustrating back then but every game was frustrating

now its just unacceptably poor

[flint radish]

yeah

[jovial jay]

I just hope EA servers are ready for 128

[torpid shuttle]

Hope they prepare anti cheat too.

[jovial jay]

Sometimes the game itself is great but there are no way to play it naturally

[tame cobalt]

Where my maria falck mains at

[torpid shuttle]

The epic one lol

I hope Portal mode can solo play with Bot.

[jovial jay]

Yea you can

[lavish shadow]

You can

You can do anything
1 human vs 127 bots
127 bots vs 1 hot
88v40
2v95

[torpid shuttle]

Well other 1 month for waiting BF news.

[neat mist]

Woohoo

[wispy vault]

Imagine how hyped we already are and we still don't know anything about Hazard Zone

[neat mist]

Who

[spark acorn]

Surprised we didn't get any news on Battlefield mobile.

[wispy vault]

This game is a lot

[round thicket]

128 jet TDM, limited munition, possibility of creating a sandstorm that obscures your view, one life, if you get off the plane you die and the plane explodes 🤤

[torpid shuttle]

What if Hazard zone similar with Tarkov game or Objective gamemode.

[shrewd rivet]

[torpid shuttle]

!when

[lavish shadow]

Haha

Everyone is like
Gimme this mode gimme this mode

Dice is like
Make it urself fuckers

[verbal forge]

[arctic grove]

Im going to unite 14 countries in south america to attack Sony entertainment

[torpid shuttle]

I heard there is limit number of air carft, isn't it.

[torpid shuttle]

What?

[arctic grove]

Yes

[round thicket]

I hope not, otherwise it is not very free as a modality

[arctic grove]

Battlefield 2042 better have their bogos binted

[torpid shuttle]

Did Sony do something wrong again?

[arctic grove]

No, I just feel like it. My justification though is that it is for the betterment of mankind that we rid Sony from this earth

[torpid shuttle]

Ok then.

[arctic grove]

They rejected support from Brita

[torpid shuttle]

Well I want to get rid of West Taiwan. Oof.

[arctic grove]

The fact they cant accept the worlds best apple juice filtration system that has 14 filters, should be enough to change you idealogy of sony.

[distant swallow]

Thank you very much

[elder mango]

No problem

[distant swallow]

Im trying to preorder gold edition on PS4 in Amazon

But I cant somehow

[sterile tide]

I don’t recommend that

[elder mango]

Oh I think to get both versions you have to preorder digitally

[ocean flame]

@distant swallow do it through the psn store

[distant swallow]

I want phisic edition

[sterile tide]

We still don’t know how will the game run on older gen console

[wispy vault]

dont think thats possible, the physical ps4 edition is a different game

[distant swallow]

Yes thats why I will pre order gold edition, if runs bad I will just move to PS5

[elder mango]

But I think to get both editions you have to do it digital

[ocean flame]

@distant swallow
People still buy that? Discs are pretty much digital but you only use them as a license disk to verify every 15 mins which is pretty useless

[elder mango]

I might be wrong

[atomic cosmos]

They will probably have a physical edition for gold and ultimate for PlayStation but for some reason they haven’t put it out

GameStop has the PS4 and PS5 standard in physical

[arctic grove]

I swear im about to cause a Reality failure scenario by creating a physically perfect machine that is 100% efficient, this will disturb the laws of existence by ignoring the coefficient of friction.

[distant swallow]

Physical >>>>> Digital

[scarlet hornet]

Updated version

[distant swallow]

Improved engine

[arctic grove]

Bf2042 uses Half life's source engine

[nova idol]

Bf2042 was made in roblox game maker

[distant swallow]

[nova idol]

Ok actually theres some FPS on roblox that have had effort put into them that arent the worst thing in the world

[dreamy hornet]

Ahh the cod fanboy who takes the Adler picture into the washroom along with a sock

[distant swallow]
