battlefield-2042

[peak socket]

u if im correct u mean that 2042 might be gud and 52 might be worse?

[tame cobalt]

i mean they'll be in the same era but 52 will have better mechanics and worse maps... just like how it was with bf3 -> bf4 and bf1 -> bfv

[peak socket]

ahhh

i understand now

[tame cobalt]

[buoyant condor]

will there be any gameplay on yt about the closed alpha?

or is it under NDA

[peak socket]

no i dont think so

since its CLOSED maybe they are aked to not tell

[buoyant condor]

so we will only know if its good or bad?

on twitter or something

[peak socket]

we might not know anythig unless you are doing alpha

[tame cobalt]

we will know when beta comes

[buoyant condor]

i guess they are gonna send an email to a few insiders with an NDA

[torpid shuttle]

I think battlefield game series aren't present milsim at first time but you may find similar one like 200% dmg + disable HUD + limit ammo + limit speed server (Not sure it is possible in BF2042).

[buoyant condor]

which at this point is more like a testing phase

[peak socket]

is ea playtest supported in asia?

cos i was thinking of registering for alpha

[buoyant condor]

you cant

only an handful of people will play the closed alpha

and no one really knows who or how

[peak socket]

oof

[buoyant condor]

rule out the alpha

[torpid shuttle]

oof

[buoyant condor]

prepare for the open beta

i was hoping for some news once the alpha drops

[peak socket]

they have studios in asia now and they just WONT do playtest

[torpid shuttle]

My body is ready for beta. But I need join alpha too :(((

[buoyant condor]

also

[peak socket]

ya

[buoyant condor]

Hazard Zone will be a BR

[peak socket]

nope

ur wrong

[buoyant condor]

yes dude

[torpid shuttle]

No, they say many time. "IT"S NOT BR"

[buoyant condor]

Squad up and drop down into the Hazard Zone

[peak socket]

lol they confirmed at launch there wont be a br

[buoyant condor]

SQUAD UP AND DROP DOWN

its clearly a BR

[peak socket]

just because they say that doesnt mean its br

[torpid shuttle]

I think it's similar with Tarkov or maybe objective gamemode.

[buoyant condor]

Activision also stated that Warzone wasnt a BR

[arctic grove]

it's just like fortnite :)

[buoyant condor]

when we first heard rumors about it

[torpid shuttle]

Agree.

[peak socket]

it could be bf1 where ppl are dropping out of a damages plane

[buoyant condor]

activision did the exact same thing

they stated that it wasnt BR and it was something new, which at the end of the day it was

but the core gameplay is br

[tame cobalt]

[torpid shuttle]

Not BR bro. They said that A LOT.

[azure vessel]

you could say the same thing with conquest

[buoyant condor]

i will screenshot this convo and send it to you once bf drops hazard zone

[torpid shuttle]

OK

[arctic grove]

i looked it up and what they meant is that warzone is "big map gamemodes"

so plunder, battleroyale ect

[buoyant condor]

its also coming later in the year

which is exactly how activision did it

[torpid shuttle]

We will see. I bet Hazard zone similar with Escape from Tarkov or Objective gamemode.

[peak socket]

ya with the rest of battlefield

[arctic grove]

yeah it's probably gonna be tarkov lite

i'm hyped

[peak socket]

coming later this year on oct 22

[buoyant condor]

later in the year meaning after bf drops

[arctic grove]

inb4 tarkov is battle royale aswell

[buoyant condor]

it will probably be on december

[torpid shuttle]

I screen capture already 😄

[buoyant condor]

or early january

[arctic grove]

where are you seeing this

[peak socket]

i hope its on 21st

[buoyant condor]

on the official website

https://www.ea.com/games/battlefield/battlefield-2042

[torpid shuttle]

I heard from EA live

[arctic grove]

"stay tuned for more information coming later this year"

i'm pretty sure this just means they'll do a gameplay reveal

~fall q4

[buoyant condor]

i guarantee you

they will do the exact same thing activision did

[arctic grove]

which is

[buoyant condor]

release the main game first

[torpid shuttle]

Hazard zone?

[buoyant condor]

and then release hazard zone which is a like-warzone mode

for FREE

i bet you

[torpid shuttle]

😄

Let's see who is right? bro

[buoyant condor]

its too much profit for them to not take

[twin kelp]

lmao

[torpid shuttle]

HERE

[buoyant condor]

now that warzone players are tired of cheaters

you will see a big shift in playerbase

[torpid shuttle]

I heard there is story-driven in Hazard zone.

[buoyant condor]

and unbalanced weapons might i add

[arctic grove]

i'm pretty sure there's been rumors about it being comparable to tarkov so i don't see why that wouldn't be believed

battlefield hub leaks were true afterall

[buoyant condor]

maybe it has tarkov elements to it

but the core gameplay will be one of a BR

youll see

[arctic grove]

so

shooting people?

lmao

[buoyant condor]

last man standing basically

if you wanna call it that

[arctic grove]

i genuinely doubt hazard zone will be last man standing

[torpid shuttle]

BETA DAY: Hazard zone is minecraft gamemode.... LOL

[simple widget]

https://tenor.com/view/hazard-gif-12107337

[buoyant condor]

maybe a little more fast paced since BR arent meant to be slow

Honestly even better if its a tarkov like gamemode

I'm fine either way

But im looking at this realistically

[simple widget]

Most important, it will have weapons

[buoyant condor]

That we can all agree on

[grave lodge]

Lol

[naive trellis]

Why did you spoil that

[buoyant condor]

He is a game dev

He knows what's up

[buoyant condor]

Its simple

[sterile pelican]

[delicate hollow]

is wilde bullying people again

[naive trellis]

No.

[torpid shuttle]

Yes. I can use rock as weapon in Hazard mode.
LOL joke

[buoyant condor]

I just hope it doesn't turn in a pewpew shield stun claymore mode

[peak socket]

lol

[simple widget]

Wilde is only bullying me

but that's fine

[torpid shuttle]

Let's me hug you

[simple widget]

oki

but my arm is sore from the vaccine, be gentle

[peak socket]

lol

[naive trellis]

UNTRUE

[torpid shuttle]

Be gentle it's my first time. OOF

[simple widget]

TRUE

[torpid shuttle]

DISTRUE

[delicate hollow]

smh, why cant wilde stop bullying people

[peak socket]

LOL wth

all shooting games regard less of gamemode wil have weapons its obious

[delicate hollow]

prove it then

[peak socket]

cod has weapons

battlefield has

wolfenstien

halo

name any shooting game

it has weapons

[delicate hollow]

how can you prove that hazard will have weapons

[peak socket]

ya rock is a weapon

[torpid shuttle]

😄

[peak socket]

how can u prove that hazard zone will NOT have wepons

[torpid shuttle]

I can prove

[peak socket]

ok

[torpid shuttle]

Look at this https://www.dualshockers.com/could-hazard-zone-be-free-to-play-in-battlefield-2042/

[buoyant condor]

An-94 with pink hentai camo go brrr

It will 100% be free to play

[delicate hollow]

also why would hazard be free if they plan on making a free br game in 2022

[torpid shuttle]

You will see some guy use weapon.

[buoyant condor]

And a battle royale inspired gamemode

[peak socket]

whattt its coming before the full gameeee

[peak socket]

its not they said it

[onyx oar]

trailers?

[torpid shuttle]

Beta game?

[peak socket]

no

[buoyant condor]

It will be

[peak socket]

leme copy paste

[buoyant condor]

Source trust me bro

[peak socket]

Bizarrely, Hazard Zone was announced alongside the reveal of Battlefield 2042, but in a recent interview for EA Play Live, Gabrielson said the mode will be revealed this fall, just weeks before the game’s launch. Although this doesn’t necessarily prove anything, it could give us a small indication that the mode will be Free to Play. Either that or DICE is concerned about the communities reaction to the mode.

[delicate hollow]

the devs said hazard wont be a BR but it can only be classified as such

so its gonna be something completely new

[peak socket]

DICE are still yet to give any further details on Battlefield 2042‘s third mode Hazard Zone, with the only information given so far is that it’s “not your classic Battle Royale” according to DICE’s Oskar Gabrielson.

[royal trail]

will there be any more reveal events with loads of info or will the rest just be random tweets with beta dates etc?

[peak socket]

maybe gamescom on august

[royal trail]

cool

[twin hemlock]

probably gamescom as EA has confirmed they will be there

[torpid shuttle]

@delicate hollow

[buoyant condor]

It will be free to play and and a battleroyale INSPIRED gamemode with tarkov elements to it, mark my words

[peak socket]

DICE are still yet to give any further details on Battlefield 2042‘s third mode Hazard Zone, with the only information given so far is that it’s “not your classic Battle Royale” according to DICE’s Oskar Gabrielson.

[delicate hollow]

why ping

[peak socket]

though i agree a tiny bit

[buoyant condor]

Exactly

Its not your classic battle royale

Its a different type of br

[torpid shuttle]

Sorry I just want to relate this comment.

[buoyant condor]

Just like warzone

[peak socket]

maybe a Br and regular multi hybrid

[onyx oar]

Hunt Showdown insipred would be better than EFT inspired. EFT induces heart attacks. It's a horror game sometimes

[buoyant condor]

It will borrow many elements to warzone

Mark my words

[torpid shuttle]

Nice concept. Hunt down mission?

[onyx oar]

Yeah something like that. A little less stressfull in my opinion and easier to pick up. Unlike the abuse from EFT when you're first time play that game O.o

[buoyant condor]

Many people distorted Oskar words saying that its not a BR spreading misinformation

When he just said that its not your CLASSIC br

[onyx oar]

It literally says that its not a BR on their official website lmao

[buoyant condor]

Where

Send me a screenshot in dm

[peak socket]

not dm over here

[buoyant condor]

Send me a link here then

[delicate hollow]

white names cant embed

so links will have to do

[torpid shuttle]

Agree. EFT is too stress for me.

[buoyant condor]

Maybe it will have an inventory and bullet system like tarkov

[peak socket]

and whats ur source?

[buoyant condor]

And you have a stash you can manage before jumping into this br

[peak socket]

i dont think we wtill have anything at the begining exept a pistol or knife

[buoyant condor]

If it has tarkov elements its quite possible it will also have a stash system

[delicate hollow]

i have seen alot of people talking about hazard being tarkov like, but i have never seen any kind of evidence for it past it being a neat idea

did i miss a thing or is it just a neat idea

[onyx oar]

been stated before on their website. trying to find it now but honestly don't know if i can be bothered at this point

[buoyant condor]

It wont be tarkov like

[delicate hollow]

most likely

[peak socket]

worzone 2042?????????????????

[buoyant condor]

It will be a br inspired gamemode with tarkov elements

[tame cobalt]

[twin kelp]

bruuuuuuuh

[delicate hollow]

and how does one know this

[buoyant condor]

Call me when you find it lol

[shadow plume]

Hello

[twin kelp]

just because it sounds or looks like BR doesnt mean it will be BR or tarkov or whatever it is

[delicate hollow]

yeah sense where you get this info from

[buoyant condor]

No but its most likely it will be

[delicate hollow]

source trust me bro?

[buoyant condor]

Im just speculating

[delicate hollow]

ok

[buoyant condor]

Yes

[delicate hollow]

so that doesnt matter to me at all

because one persons hunch

[buoyant condor]

Im 80% sure it is

[delicate hollow]

means literally nothing

[buoyant condor]

Everyone is saying this

[delicate hollow]

not everyone

[buoyant condor]

Go on YouTube and search hazard zone

[delicate hollow]

and it has 0 evidence to back this claim

youtube isnt a trusted source either

[buoyant condor]

Its all speculation

[delicate hollow]

no shit

[buoyant condor]

Of course its not confirmed

[halcyon lotus]

There's a twitch clip that say it will not be a br

[buoyant condor]

Otherwise we wouldn't be talkjng about it

[delicate hollow]

they said it wont be a BR but it doesnt have a way to classify it other than BR

[stray robin]

Battlefield 2042 will be Huge

[buoyant condor]

LINK ME WHERE

[delicate hollow]

source trust me bro

[buoyant condor]

They said it wont be your classic br

[peak socket]

accordin to the leaks might be 50gb

[delicate hollow]

they did say that

they also said other things

[buoyant condor]

Not that its not a br

[fiery solar]

if this is all in 50gb why is gta 5 100

[stray robin]

HUGE IN QUALITY AND QUANTITY

[peak socket]

idk in the leaked sys requirements it said required disk space 50gb so im guessing

[delicate hollow]

oh specs got leaked

neat

[peak socket]

ya

[tame cobalt]

will be smaller on ps5 tho

[fiery solar]

where

[peak socket]

but its not official

[buoyant condor]

50 gb at launch

[delicate hollow]

ofc

[buoyant condor]

So without hazard zone

[stray robin]

Specs .?

[fiery solar]

[peak socket]

here are what the leaks say

[delicate hollow]

huh thats

[buoyant condor]

I said they will be identical to BF5

[delicate hollow]

not horrible if its true

[buoyant condor]

They are apparently

[fiery solar]

lost me at 2000vram

[peak socket]

sad life

[digital yew]

Holy shit guys, they are mixing up all previous bf games and maps and putting it all in one game

Holy shit

[naive trellis]

!!specs

[tender pendant]

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

[digital yew]

I'm gonna have so much fun operating the B17

[patent spade]

Free disk space 50gb rly xD

[buoyant condor]

Not updated @naive trellis

[patent spade]

Will be more Like 120

[fiery solar]

80-120 seems fair

[buoyant condor]

I bet 50gb at launch

[remote spear]

Lol wishful thinking

[tame cobalt]

because the leak isn't confirmed

[buoyant condor]

Another 50gb for the remaining gamemodes that will not drop at launch

[peak socket]

are the specs true even one of them

[delicate hollow]

how do you know the other modes arent dropping at launch

[tame cobalt]

source trust me bro

[buoyant condor]

Its literally stated in the website

[fiery solar]

if an rtx 3080 isnt minimum is it even a good game?

[delicate hollow]

link

[obsidian tide]

Already there is an issue with this speculation, as Shader Model 5.1 is only tied to a DirectX 12 Feature Level; that being 11_0 or 11_1. Not DirectX 11.

[buoyant condor]

I gave the link before

Search it

[delicate hollow]

send it again

[buoyant condor]

Im on mobile now

Search my msg history

[delicate hollow]

good excuse

[twin kelp]

bruh

[remote spear]

2gb vram to run a 2021 AAA game? Comeone my dudes

[peak socket]

no offence dude but im not a geek pls simplify

[twin kelp]

they said both modes will be av on launch except hazerd i think

[remote spear]

maybe 10 fps

[buoyant condor]

Told you

Hazard zone wont be at launch

[delicate hollow]

you didnt say that

[buoyant condor]

dude

[remote spear]

Just that tornado probably takes up 2gb vram lel

[twin kelp]

lmao

[delicate hollow]

you said modes

meaning multiple

[tame cobalt]

Battlefield 2042

[buoyant condor]

I said modes because portal will be shipped with the games they stated first

And they will add to that later down the road

[stark mason]

why do people care about "official recommended settings" anyway ? only ACTUAL test on youtube day one matters to me

[delicate hollow]

tf are you on about

[buoyant condor]

Dude

They stated that on ea play live

[celest turtle]

Def gonna be an fps hit when that happens

[delicate hollow]

you got a link to support that claim

[buoyant condor]

They said that portal will feature more maps and weapons once it drops

[obsidian tide]

Since DirectX 10, the API has had Feature Levels tied to an API version. If a game or card supports a certain Feature Level of an API version, it leverages up to a certain supported feature set.

[tame cobalt]

Tornado + sandstorm + 128 players on screen = 0fps

[delicate hollow]

ok and

[buoyant condor]

And

??

[peak socket]

tornado happens sometimes and saand storm only on hourglass

[delicate hollow]

tf is your point

[buoyant condor]

That portal is the other gamemode i was referring to

[peak socket]

not maps only weapons and vehicles

[tame cobalt]

ik

[delicate hollow]

but portal is going to be there on release day

and you said it isnt

[remote spear]

Man, there is apsolutely no chance the game will be playable with 2 gb of vram.

[peak socket]

but together.....

[buoyant condor]

They will surely add more "content" like they stated meaning also maps from games like bf4 n stuff

[peak socket]

so ur saying directx 11 or 11.1 does not support 5.1 shader?

[buoyant condor]

Ash stop trying to manipulate my words

[delicate hollow]

your the one who typed em

not me

[tame cobalt]

[obsidian tide]

The official Minimum and Recommended specs are treated as Word of God from the developers, and a loose promise of "The game will run somewhat well at these specs."

Players whom later find that these are not well-performing specs in practice will be angered and demand "optimizations" to meet the posted specs, or to increase the posted specs to meet more realistic targets.

[buoyant condor]

Ok dude i said gamemodes i meant gamemode

Are you happy now?

[delicate hollow]

yeah

[buoyant condor]

Such a little kid

[delicate hollow]

well thats rude

[buoyant condor]

You are acting like one

[delicate hollow]

pot calling the kettle black

[remote spear]

If tou meet the recommended specs and the game runs objectively poorely on your pc, that's basis for a refund. 1 valid reason to care about them right there

[obsidian tide]

That is the other main reason why people care about those. It affects the initial purchasing decision of a product, and whether or not it is bought, waited on, or bought and refunded.

[buoyant condor]

Bf2042 are fhe same as bf5

[peak socket]

there might be network too where i live the only gud ping servers are rus and oce which is 140 thankfully do to influx in bf4 they made in singapore too which is 50 ping

[buoyant condor]

So if bf5 runs well on your system u have no problems

[delicate hollow]

not confirmed so not the same

[hollow geyser]

If u can run bf 5 on medium settings u shouldn't have a problem running bf 2042

It's common sense lol

[arctic grove]

quite funny that those requirements are 1:1 the same as the official battlefield 5 requirements

[delicate hollow]

perhaps

[remote spear]

How does that make sense @hollow geyser ?

[hollow geyser]

They don't need to conform it

[delicate hollow]

but no official specs yet

[hollow geyser]

Confirm*

[arctic grove]

i can 100% assure you it's just a copy pasted page for those requirement websites

[delicate hollow]

so why does it matter

[arctic grove]

posted as "speculation"

[buoyant condor]

Someone said that its official @delicate hollow

[delicate hollow]

its not

[buoyant condor]

Idk if true

[delicate hollow]

!!specs

[remote spear]

If you can barely run the older game, you should have no provlem running the new game ? lol logic

[tender pendant]

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

[delicate hollow]

nothing official

steam would be updated if it were

[lucid goblet]

[peak socket]

!!help

[hollow geyser]

?

[buoyant condor]

Yes i have seen steam and it says coming soon

[remote spear]

?!

[stark mason]

they gonna put "recommended" as 1080p30fps to not scare anyone by saying "gtx 1060" and that's it

[delicate hollow]

steam has said that since the page went up

[peak socket]

origin too

[buoyant condor]

Its a placeholder @delicate hollow

[delicate hollow]

wow

[peak socket]

i hope its 1060 or less i rly hope so or else ill have to upgrade. but unlikely

[delicate hollow]

who could have guessed that

of course its a place holder

[arctic grove]

i just don't see a reality where a game that doubles their playercount AND looks better than it's predecessor whilst utilizing next gen console hardware would have the same requirements as the previous instalment

[obsidian tide]

Well, not exactly. DirectX 11.1 and its Feature Level of 11_1 do not, but introduce other features games can leverage.

DirectX 12, however, is a different story. It has its own Feature Levels going from 11_0 to 12_2, with the 11_0 Feature Level introducing support for Shader Model 5.1, and some features tied to DX11's FL 11_1.

It is a little complicated, but can be sorted through at least.
(As trivia, DirectX 12 Feature Level 12_2 is marketed as "Ultimate.")

[delicate hollow]

there are no official specs yet

[arctic grove]

if that's how games worked

we'd have "pentium 4" listed as recommended cpu

[buoyant condor]

Windows 98

256mb allocated

[arctic grove]

also note how bf1 and bf5 practically run the same but the requirements are slightly different. if you see requirements for bf2042 that are a carbon copy of the bf5 requirements

[stark mason]

if DLSS is properly working, gonna feel good to use RTX 20xx and 30xx

[arctic grove]

it's just fake

[remote spear]

Exactly... but dw, if you can run bfv at medium you should have no problem running it, iTs JuSt CommOn SenSe

[peak socket]

ok so ur saying that there are alternative to 5.1 which run similarly?

[arctic grove]

i mean that's a pretty fair guideline tbh

[buoyant condor]

Bf1 requirements are slightly more demanding than bf5s

[arctic grove]

i can run bf5 at ultra over 60

[peak socket]

oh no

i have 10xx

[obtuse pier]

bullshit that it will have the same requirements, what kind of ridiculous statement

an already cpu intensive game just got more intensive and ridiculous

[remote spear]

Same, but i asure you you wont run bf2042 on ultra, im hoping for medium 60fps

[torpid shuttle]

Hello I am back

[buoyant condor]

Who needs ultra anyway

[remote spear]

I do

[arctic grove]

that's just incorrect

[arctic grove]

i'm aware

[peak socket]

ppl who want gud graphics

[arctic grove]

and i'm ok with it

[torpid shuttle]

FPS is matter

[delicate hollow]

you are actually incorrect

[buoyant condor]

Yes

[obsidian tide]

What I am saying is that to claim DirectX 11.1 usage with Shader Model 5.1 is technically incorrect, as support for that Shader Model and later versions is tied specifically to DirectX 12 API version usage and its minimum Feature Level.

[buoyant condor]

Look at the ram requirements for bf1

[delicate hollow]

bfv had more polishing on specs than bf1

[buoyant condor]

They are slightly higher

[peak socket]

you finally clread it up thanks 🙂

[arctic grove]

so basically ram

and?

[obtuse pier]

and 2042 is going to blow all of those out the water

[buoyant condor]

Thats it

[stark mason]

my guess is that gtx 1060 will be "playable" on medium but bad experience during heavy weather effects

[remote spear]

I mean its 2021, if tou dont have at least 1 tb of ram wtf are you doing

[arctic grove]

and you're ignoring the fact that the AMD side requirements went up

and there was a generational jump for the intel cpus on the recommended list

[delicate hollow]

only 1, i got 3

weak

[peak socket]

lol

[remote spear]

I said at least mortal

[peak socket]

vram or ram

[remote spear]

Im running petawats

[delicate hollow]

who you calling mortal, mortal

[remote spear]

Stealing electricity to feed them

[obtuse pier]

those prior requrements on the last games just blew away and hold little value when 2042 is coming

[visual portal]

can run 2042:
Cpu: Intel Xeon
Ram: 4GB
GPU: Gt 710
Os: Windows 7 32 bit

[mystic quarry]

Can someone explain what portal is, is it a gamemode?

[onyx oar]

I got all the terraflops beach

[buoyant condor]

Its the nether

[next onyx]

Think of it like an additional option that allows us to customise games

[delicate hollow]

make your own game, gamemode

[next onyx]

They've also taken the liberty of adding older maps through it

[lucid goblet]

It's a metaphysical object that when passed through transports physical matter to another identical object elsewhere in 3d space.

[next onyx]

Think of the server mods we know back in bf4 actually being officially supported

So you know

[obsidian tide]

For more information, here is a Wikipedia article on the subject.

[next onyx]

Zombie mode, Vip mode

[obtuse pier]

more player count bigger maps upgraded graphics the last battlefield was already crazy on the cpu so of course there is going to be a big difference

[mystic quarry]

You think you're smooth

[remote spear]

No, i actually cringed a little when i pressed sent

[buoyant condor]

If anything i think the ram and vram requirements are gonna really go up (since higher playercount, bigger maps ecc.)

[remote spear]

Nice level up Oatmeal

[mystic quarry]

I saw a vtol in the portal trailer so if those are drivable I'd get the game for them alone lol

[obsidian tide]

Please bear in mind that this does not even touch on subjects such as WDDM, or how Windows Display Driver Model versions also tie into features of DirectX, Pro.

[obtuse pier]

recommended might still be a ryzen 5 but even then it is still going to be shit and bottleneck

[buoyant condor]

I have a ryzen 5, hope its not the minimum

[obtuse pier]

unless its the recent 5 release

[peak socket]

osprey?

[buoyant condor]

2600x

[pine roost]

It feels like dice are intentionally not giving us any meaningful info about gameplay

[remote spear]

ryzen 5 is a broad term lol

[peak socket]

ya its there its playable

[buoyant condor]

Which i have to upgrade eithet way

[onyx oar]

they bully us

[obtuse pier]

unless its the 3600x it will be very high usage

[delicate hollow]

thats weird, sounds kinda like how a game in closed alpha should work

[pine roost]

Unless they are going for the approach where they want us to discover things for ourself at launch

[peak socket]

which is happening right now

unless beta is also closed cringe

[pine roost]

I’m fairly certain that for bf1 there was already footage being made by content creators during the pre alpha stage, that’s what the game is in now but it’s only been internal testing as we know

[buoyant condor]

For recommended gpu i can probably see a 1660

[remote spear]

i have a 1660s :)

[buoyant condor]

Slightly higher than 1069

[obtuse pier]

you might push a 1050ti on low-mid

at a push

[buoyant condor]

1060*

[pine roost]

Tbh I think recommended will be about a 2070, 2080 range

[buoyant condor]

I have a 2060

[delicate hollow]

we know its not internal only, its just there is a nda

[buoyant condor]

Nahhh

[peak socket]

i have 1060

[buoyant condor]

Recommended 2070 is too much

[delicate hollow]

this is the biggest bf yet

[remote spear]

Its not too much

[delicate hollow]

they gotta keep it secret

[onyx oar]

oh oh 1050 ti. that thing is gonna choke and cry

[remote spear]

Its probably on point

[pine roost]

But why if previous games have had hour long videos being posted by this point :/ must be a marketing strategy or something

[obtuse pier]

it will run but at the minimum frame count and performance

[delicate hollow]

could be

or it couldnt be

[pine roost]

Not considering the power of next gen consoles, recommended needs to perform about the same

[obtuse pier]

before i upgrades to 70 super i was managing battlefield 5 on medium to high but the quality just got higher on 2042

[onyx oar]

I remember my 1050 ti. what a piece of garbage i realized that was after I upgraded

[obtuse pier]

Really? I think mine did the job for most games, just couldn't enjoy the highest settings

[buoyant condor]

The 2070 has the same teraflops as the ps5 but that doesnt mean its the same card

Super*

[obtuse pier]

took advantage of the market and charged extra for it on a customer build though haha

[onyx oar]

I just got a really big jump between the 1050ti and my previous build. So it was night and day when it came to performance. Then again it could run most games at low settings but I like a little bit of bling bling in my games.

[pine roost]

Well the consoles have RDNa 2 GPUs which is technically about the same as the 3000 series cards

[buoyant condor]

Yeah 1050 ti is not cutting it for this

You might be able to play on low 50fps

[obtuse pier]

yeah i just suppose it depends what you wanted to play at the time

[slow nova]

Yo do you know if keyboard and mouse is supported on xbox for 2042?

[obtuse pier]

it will run but on low settings

[onyx oar]

It probably can if you tweak the game like crazy but then the trees would like look noodles or something

[obtuse pier]

50-60

[pine roost]

The 6800xt is sometimes better than a 3080, that is RDNa 2

[obtuse pier]

on bf5 when i still had that card i was on high though to be fair

[slow nova]

Also any new reveals after portal trailer?

[onyx oar]

you have AMD cpu as well?

[buoyant condor]

I feel bad for people who really need an upgrade but are stuck because of the market issue

[pine roost]

I’ve got a 5600x

[onyx oar]

nice

[next onyx]

6800x works better on 1080p anyways so

[buoyant condor]

I wanted to upgrade from a 2600x to a 5600x

[pine roost]

But I’ve got a 3080 so I’m set for 2042

[obtuse pier]

the market is a lot better than a few months ago, not too bad for card stock its dripping down to retail slowly

[next onyx]

3090S TI

[onyx oar]

smiles in local hardware stores that arent dry like a dessert

[obtuse pier]

semiconductor shortage isnt so bad in some countries

[pine roost]

But it is true that it needs to be optimised since lots of pc gamers are running older tech

[peak socket]

lol 30905

[pine roost]

I don’t have any hardware stores like microcentre in the us, I had to look online

[buoyant condor]

You cant really also change your recommended settings that much from the previous bf

Otherwise People are gonna be mad

[pine roost]

Well they can, and it probably will be much higher

[buoyant condor]

Nah

[remote spear]

ofc they can lol

[buoyant condor]

Im sure they optimized the engine

[next onyx]

Don't think we have many tech places here in AUS so

[onyx oar]

I'm not from the us. I just have local hardware stores that arent owned by big companies. Less people go there so most things are always in stock for reasonable prices

[next onyx]

Well physical tech stores selling parts

[remote spear]

You are making no @buoyant condor

[next onyx]

Cause

Harveys and shit exists

[peak socket]

in IN same

[pine roost]

I don’t even have any smaller shops, literally nowhere sells graphics cards here :/

[buoyant condor]

You guys in the US are living the dream when it comes to PC parts

Here in italy is different

[hollow geyser]

Nah

[obtuse pier]

The US is struggling for parts

massively

[hollow geyser]

They're banning gaming pcs in 6 us states

[delicate hollow]

3060s are 500% price here

[hollow geyser]

Like wtf

[buoyant condor]

Not ss much as europe

[obtuse pier]

Something to do with power usage or something?

[pine roost]

From what I’ve heard that is a misunderstanding, they aren’t banning pcs

[hollow geyser]

Ye

[onyx oar]

I love it when they stugg....uh yes it must be annoying to live in the us and trying to upgrade atm

[obtuse pier]

The UK is slowly getting back to normality I am finding all kinds of cards for good prices

[pine roost]

Just watch jayztwocents video on it

[buoyant condor]

UK is not EU tho

xd

[obtuse pier]

Im saying europe in general

UK is good and so are many other countires there isnt a semiconductor problem like there was months ago

cars and gpus slowly being made again

like a trickle down effect to retail

[onyx oar]

no they are changing what powerconsumption a pre-built can consume per year and this is resulting in companies opting out of shipping pc's to those states

[pine roost]

I had to spend 5 months searching for my card, they only dropped once every couple of weeks

[buoyant condor]

In Italy they are selling 1660S for 500 euros on amazon

[indigo storm]

Good morning everyone

[obtuse pier]

youre one of the unlucky ones

[onyx oar]

but it's only alienware so who cares tbh

[buoyant condor]

Im not unlucky because i have a 2060

I have got lots of unlucky friends tho

[obtuse pier]

rest of europe isnt that bad compared with everywhere else

[pine roost]

And DLSS, that should help a lot

[indigo storm]

What's for breakfast?

[onyx oar]

You should see south korea. they swimming in graphics cards

[buoyant condor]

I dont like dlss that much unless its set on quality

[onyx oar]

2 eggs and some bacon, wbu?

[buoyant condor]

Otherwise its all blurry

[obtuse pier]

its a shame the stock is still so topheavy

[pine roost]

I usually run without AA at all, but it’s more frames so

[obtuse pier]

its better though for now

[delicate hollow]

man i wish i had the money to eat

[onyx oar]

I wish I had a mouth to eat 😦

[indigo storm]

I would like eggs and sausage

[onyx oar]

Sausage for breakfast is a little too heavy for my taste tho I do have nurnberg sausage at home

[indigo storm]

Taco bell free crunch wrap when make new acct on app

[onyx oar]

ngl I might warm one up

[delicate hollow]

the nearest taco bell is an hour and a half drive

[indigo storm]

😔

[obtuse pier]

i wish there were more taco bells in the UK

[delicate hollow]

i wish i was in the UK

america sucks

[arctic grove]

Cannibalism survival 101

[indigo storm]

You can't forage dandelions?

[torpid shuttle]

[arctic grove]

[delicate hollow]

no dandelions anywhere near here

[onyx oar]

don't tell me you never tried cannibalism before? weirdo

[delicate hollow]

too salty of a climate for dandelions

[peak socket]

lol

[arctic grove]

You can-

1. Turn off brain
2. Go outside
3. Eat grass and dirt.

[onyx oar]

what's grass?

[delicate hollow]

dirt is too crunchy

[indigo storm]

There has to be some wild plant that is safe?

[obtuse pier]

[delicate hollow]

not really

i got palm trees and some sea grass

[peak socket]

mushrooms?

[indigo storm]

Try working a grocery store and just eat their stuff?

[arctic grove]

You will know when you grow up

[onyx oar]

pinecones have a nice crunch

[delicate hollow]

already been fired from there

[indigo storm]

Lol

[arctic grove]

Nah, just hold people hostage and eat their brains

[peak socket]

bruh that what a zombie does

[onyx oar]

that's so 2008 bro

[arctic grove]

Well, old things dont hurt

[torpid shuttle]

Why zombie like to eat brain?

[indigo storm]

Sry man I'd share my food

[onyx oar]

Start with the Liver andheart so you can brag about how expensive your meal would be if you bought it on the black market

[arctic grove]

Nope, zombies dont EXIST

Now I just realised how many childhoods I just messed up

oh fu-

[indigo storm]

How many ppl here are waiting for bf2042

[onyx oar]

no zombies oh no. at least santa is real

[torpid shuttle]

BF topic -> cannibalism topic. Interest one.

[peak socket]

yup

[arctic grove]

Yeah lets just pretend he is

[onyx oar]

https://tenor.com/view/parkour-theoffice-freerunning-gif-5128248

[torpid shuttle]

A lot

[delicate hollow]

i would assume a few million

[peak socket]

what do you think would come in the B.P? (battle pass)

[onyx oar]

w-w-what are you saying man? y-y-you eat santa?

[indigo storm]

Doritos coupon

[onyx oar]

did you kill christmas?

[torpid shuttle]

I lazy to wait for BF2042. So I wait for BF 2043 instead.

[pine roost]

im enjoying bf1 so im occupied for a while

[arctic grove]

Well, there is a reason people stopped believing that he EXISTS.

[torpid shuttle]

BF 1 is gold.

[pine roost]

picked it up from prime gaming, bfv will be on their soon aswell. Its a lot of fun

i couldnt run it before but now i can and its a blast

[peak socket]

and you are too lazay to do htat so u wait for Bc3 or Hardline2

[arctic grove]

Its so sad to live in a country which does not have prime gaming GODDAMIT

[peak socket]

oof prime gaming isnt in IN

[pine roost]

but i've almost unlocked every weapon already so there isn't a whole lot i can do without the premium thing

[onyx oar]

You SOB I wanted to eat him. You know what you bastard he might not be able to put you on the naughty list but you are on mine. eating santa and not sharing some with me. selfish prick

[torpid shuttle]

PERFECT. But I need to wait for Half Life 3 too.

[arctic grove]

Chill out or imma eat you too.

Snarls

[onyx oar]

Imma eat a lot of salt so I will taste salty af

[arctic grove]

You are in my timmy

*tummy

You tasted kinda good

[arctic grove]

Nope

https://tenor.com/view/roasted-oh-shookt-gif-8269968

eh gf not load?

[arctic grove]

no

Just da link

[peak socket]

[arctic grove]

ok

[delicate hollow]

white names cant embed

[tame cobalt]

i just hope the 2042 maps are good

[peak socket]

yup

[tight storm]

2143

[peak socket]

definately

they dont have stickers for old games

oof

[tame cobalt]

would be poggers if that's the next game

Either 2143 or bad company 3

[peak socket]

yup

some guys would appreciate hardline 2

lol

[distant briar]

Someone said this about bf2042 on tiktok 💀

"Battlefield will be so bad, its just a copy. Pretty much FIFA all over again"

[torpid shuttle]

LOL

[distant briar]

Like bruh tf

[narrow elbow]

[torpid shuttle]

CoD is more make sense in that case

[tame cobalt]

EA game bad amirite

[torpid shuttle]

I want to see vary tank type in this game.

[distant briar]

And then someone said dont compare bf with fifa and this was his answer

"No, you are just not clever enough to see it. FIFA is always the same every year, just like this battlefield"

Like what bf was never the same game

[torpid shuttle]

LOL. Plot twist: CoD fan post this.

[peak socket]

one of my friends are saying 'COD IS BETTER BATTLEFIELD IS MADE BY EA SO LOOTBOXES AND COPY OF OTHER BATTLEFIELD GAMES'

the jerk

[torpid shuttle]

There is no loot box in new EA game.

[peak socket]

ya

like bf5 had microtransaciton but no lootbox

[arctic grove]

I actually also play cod but jesus tryhards are everywhere

I mean who does jump around slide and crouch in a second just to kill you in a warmup match

[torpid shuttle]

CoD MW 2019 is good one but CoD Cold War is ...........

[arctic grove]

I am also not getting into solo warzone, motherfuckers play hide and seek

[peak socket]

idk

i used to play cod m for 2 months i prefer battlefield

[arctic grove]

Also gun mechanics make no sense to me tbh. I just use them for cosmetics, but jesus having a reddot and a laser at the same time give me aneurysm

[peak socket]

you can compare every aspect more or less expect zombie cos it doesnt have

[violet swift]

mw2019 reloads make the game worth playing

thats it

lmao

[arctic grove]

I do enjoy playing plunder every now and then because of sexy gun reloads

[peak socket]

bf 2042 ads reload like cod

[arctic grove]

exactly

[peak socket]

would be OP

will bf2042 have ads reload tho?

[arctic grove]

They are as we seen from the gameplay footages which gave me boner

[peak socket]

oh no

this is bad

i never played cod but look op

[violet swift]

cant wait to call in a tank on a roof

[arctic grove]

I think they do check out portal's trailer

[peak socket]

and squash player

[arctic grove]

I just want to call in a tank on a rooftop flag to jump above enemy's tanks

[violet swift]

or use it like artillery lmao

[arctic grove]

Naah thats some bf1 arty truck shit, you need to jihad jeep with your tank

Chad players dont use tank's ammunition as a destructive element, you use the tank as the munition

[torpid shuttle]

Will they add reinforcement point?

[torpid shuttle]

So I am chad...

[arctic grove]

I think so, we've seen it in the gameplay footage, someone was calling tanks in

[peak socket]

and squash the tank underneath

[arctic grove]

I just want bf2142 titan mode back

[torpid shuttle]

YEA

[arctic grove]

I've spend a good amount of my childhood with that game, I just need it..

[peak socket]

in portal maybe

or bf 4 had protype titan

and it was 2020

soo

[arctic grove]

Hopefully

[violet swift]

real chads crush enemies with airdropped tanks

[peak socket]

maybe in 2042 we might see

[peak socket]

i was talking abt that

will we see a ranger vs eod mode?

at least the eod POV is finally in full color not B&W

[arctic grove]

If we say a tank is 55 tons and its drop takes 4 seconds that gives us 35m/s velocity just before the impact. Multiplying that with 5500 would give us a momentum of 192.500

Hitting anything with that kind of momentum would oblitirate it out of this universe

[peak socket]

ya

[arctic grove]

so pls use it as a munition

[arctic grove]

Fuck muh immersion kind of people

[peak socket]

true

[arctic grove]

All they want is dark af skins to hide in corners and farm kills

[delicate hollow]

immersion lovers are weird

[peak socket]

battlefield only has millitary costumes

[arctic grove]

Fucking crybabies

[peak socket]

so ppl never complain

[delicate hollow]

if i want mersion i play hardcore shooters like hell let loose

[arctic grove]

I wouldnt care if they add colourful skins too

[peak socket]

yup hardcore no hud

[arctic grove]

This isnt a milsim game its a sandbox shooter

[peak socket]

portal?

[next onyx]

Hardcore is a fun different mode to try altogether

[peak socket]

bf4 and 1 had idk if V has never checked

[arctic grove]

entire battlefield

[peak socket]

oh ya right

[delicate hollow]

V hardcore was bad

[arctic grove]

All of the hardcore was bad imo

[delicate hollow]

meh

[arctic grove]

It fucks up the gun balance

[delicate hollow]

tru

but it can be a good change of pace

[peak socket]

hmm maybe

[arctic grove]

I mean people get campy af which fucks up the gameplay

I remember back in bf4 hardcore mode I was the only one trying to push

[peak socket]

sad life

u should do gun masster

[arctic grove]

meanwhile people camped in corners, rooftops with their one shot guns

[peak socket]

it was and is good

[arctic grove]

Yea but it gets boring quick

Gun rotation is the same everytime

[peak socket]

some have voting options

[arctic grove]

I mean meeeh I want to play gsmes to relax not to get stressed because of a cuck who tryhards 7/24

[peak socket]

for dlc standard without dlc and pistols

[tidal yacht]

bf 4 and bf1 have those shortcut kits

[peak socket]

yah cos cod has single player

[peak socket]

not 4 its 5

[arctic grove]

which is ok i believe not everyone have the time to play the game for hours

[delicate hollow]

cod campaigns suck tho

[tidal yacht]

bf 4 - 5 too

it has one

[arctic grove]

Like me I have a work and I got old

[peak socket]

what not 4

[arctic grove]

I wont be grinding for a gun that I want for hours

Hopefully g3 makes a return

[tidal yacht]

check it on steam

[delicate hollow]

every bf has had a campaign i believe

[arctic grove]

Get EA play it's on that app

[delicate hollow]

2042 will be the only one without

[arctic grove]

bfv and bf1 had war stories

Not campaign

[tall grove]

it would be awesome

[delicate hollow]

same difference

[arctic grove]

Not really lol

[delicate hollow]

what do you mean

[peak socket]

ea play meeeeeeeeeeeeh

[delicate hollow]

its just shorter campaigns with more of them

[arctic grove]

Not a campaign tho

[delicate hollow]

it is

[arctic grove]

A campaign is a full storyline

[peak socket]

anyone know of bf2042 and bf4 platoons on pc in OCE and asia

might join

[arctic grove]

That's just a few stories

[delicate hollow]

thats like saying a duck isnt a bird

[peak socket]

i'vs been looking in #739938247089848351 ut couldnt find

[arctic grove]

Wa

[delicate hollow]

exactly

doesnt make sense

war stories are still campaigns

[still vault]

No, that is just a campaign with a long storyline. Shorter storylines doesn't make it not a campaign. At least that's how I see it.

[delicate hollow]

they told a full story

[arctic grove]

There ya go bye now

[peak socket]

shorter camPAINS

[arctic grove]

They told a full story for about 15 minutes then it's a whole new setting with a different character a campaign has set characters set storyline

[delicate hollow]

i liked war stories better than long campaigns

[arctic grove]

Ah campaigns were better

[delicate hollow]

they are both campaigns

[arctic grove]

Played 3-4 war stories then on to multiplayer

Bf3 was the best campaign

[peak socket]

although idk why they decided to put the letters. didnt find any after the first 2 or 3 and ddnt bbother after that

[peak socket]

its Bc2

[arctic grove]

It was good yea but played them again recently and bf3 campaign just hits different

[next onyx]

Honestly man you ban snipers and shit in that mode and becomes way more enjoyable.

Like yeah you still die super quick

But

It isn't a sniper

[delicate hollow]

i usually prefer slower ttk in games

i guess thats why i enjoyed apex

[tropic harbor]

but if u have 64 enemies than u need a faster ttk than in apex

[delicate hollow]

oh yeah bf def needs faster than apex

[tropic harbor]

xd

[delicate hollow]

but it shouldnt be too fast

[tropic harbor]

Yes but in portal the host can change it if we dont like the ttk we just play portal

[delicate hollow]

oh ye

tru

[next onyx]

I like a TTK that kills you quick but isn't split second

[crimson minnow]

When are we getting more info or gameplay?

[next onyx]

It's why i'm a big fan of black ops 2

Currently we don't know

[frozen adder]

What's TTK?

[tropic harbor]

Time to kill

[next onyx]

Time To Kill

[tropic harbor]

TTK = Time to kill

[delicate hollow]

how fast a gun deletes your existence

[next onyx]

It's why i enjoyed black ops 2 and bf5's gunplay so much

[empty wren]

greetings everyone

[frozen adder]

Is that a game mode or a concept?

[next onyx]

Heylo!

[tropic harbor]

Hey ebbour

[frozen adder]

Hi

[tropic harbor]

Its how long u need to kill a enemie

[delicate hollow]

bf5 ttk was ok

[tropic harbor]

with a gun

[delicate hollow]

i didnt hate it

[next onyx]

Some guns could have used a buff, A proper buff like the mp40 or sten

But overall the balance was solid

[frozen adder]

Thanks for yhe explanation all of you

[next onyx]

I'm just glad pretty much almost every support LMG is viable

[delicate hollow]

type 2a

[tropic harbor]

np

[next onyx]

Fun to kill people who use that gun

[tropic harbor]

Type 2a meta was sick

[delicate hollow]

boring you mean

[next onyx]

Dice tried to fix the "meta" yet they only made it worse

Hilarious irony

[delicate hollow]

yeah

[next onyx]

Grease gun is fun as fuck though, Thing at release teamshooting people just deleted them instantly.

[tropic harbor]

Typ 2a brings me a lot of rage quits

[delicate hollow]

i like type 11 lmg

gives me big happy

[next onyx]

The model 37 was fun as hell

[tropic harbor]

Grease gun is rare to see

[next onyx]

As Grubby as it as

[empty wren]

most annoying gun ever

[next onyx]

AHHHHHH Don't remind me i'm 500 kills off finishing off that damn shotgun

[delicate hollow]

i love shotguns in V

[tropic harbor]

I love the drilling

[next onyx]

Grease gun is kinda that go to gun for me, I rarely play medic

[opal compass]

there is still a way to go till you finish it

[next onyx]

Yeah

[delicate hollow]

im that one guy on fjell with a model 12

[next onyx]

500 till 10K model 37 kills lmao

Then i'm never seriously touching it again

You know what's a fun gun?

The Fg42 or Bar

[woven relic]

mr chompy

[delicate hollow]

bar is lovely

[next onyx]

I don't speak out of bias, Sorta. They are genuinely fun guns to play with.

[empty wren]

yes, but both have very small magazines

[delicate hollow]

bars fire rate switch is so fun

[woven relic]

mr chompy be kinda hot tho

[next onyx]

In return they're actually extremely accurate and controllable

Which seems like BS but i'm telling the truth

[empty wren]

That's true

[next onyx]

Hell bar has fast reload to complement it

FG42 just beams people

If you don't feel like those guns, The Bren, Lewis and type 11 do you really well at medium range

[tropic harbor]

I play type 11 I also have a cool skin for it

[empty wren]

Bar and FG42 are more offensive weapons in my oppinion

[next onyx]

They are

They're built towards that despite LMG's having slower handling

[delicate hollow]

whenever i play with the 11 my ocd always hits and i gotta shoot till im at a multiple of 5 to do the reload

[next onyx]

So passive aggressive

As weird as it sounds, The lewis is the more aggressive medium ranged mg in due part of fire rate but also can be specced to have handling similar to an AR.

Basically making it a 97 round ribeyrolles

[empty wren]

One of the best features about BfV in my oppinion is that you can choose diffrent Loadouts for diffrent factions. I always try to keep it as historicaly accurat as possible

[grave lodge]

I miss weapons being faction specific like in bf3, but I hope portal can make me recreate similar systems

[arctic grove]

rip activision blizzard?

[somber nebula]

Only down by a few points

Thats not massive

[arctic grove]

for a company like this it maybe massive

[chilly jacinth]

Its only temporary sadly

[somber nebula]

Their stock goes and up and down depending if they announce something

[slim quiver]

That was really only limited to the starters and they get unlocked for eachother anyways eventually

[grave lodge]

I know

[slim quiver]

They ditched faction specific because although some people liked it, it held back the whole sandbox play it your way style games got into

[grave lodge]

Hence why I look forward to making more realistic esk modes on portal

For when I want more accurate experiences

Without having to boot up some simulator game like ArmA or what have you

[slim quiver]

Yeah I feel that

Most games don’t go in the middle unless it’s like insurgency or red orchestra series tbh

[grave lodge]

Yah

Hence why I like that they added 1942 so I can make my own “accurate” experience without the hassle of walking 50km to find 1 dude hiding in a bush lmao

[slim quiver]

Yea exactly

[grave lodge]

Any info if bf2042 is gonna have the same cinematic animations for things? Entering vehicles, falling when there’s a big explosion or anything or did they cut all that completely to a more bf3/4 style

[slim quiver]

Good question. I was wondering the same

I don’t know if they’d abandon something they’ve had for 2 games tho. I think people enjoy it and it will probably stay but who knows

[grave lodge]

I liked it even if buggy at times

Only time it really annoyed me was when it took so long to jump out of a plane where I got shot down before I got out

But I do enjoy animations a lot so I kinda want it to stay

[plucky vessel]

i would like the animations of bf1 and bfv to be in 2042

as long as it doesnt touch the ones from the portal

[potent matrix]

Big ooooof I guess

[grave lodge]

?

[potent matrix]

Daily trashing COD

[dim blade]

Im thinking how to make a simulator like experience in battlefield

[grave lodge]

I like it’s more arcade gameplay, just that you can tune it to be a bit more immersive yourself. Where my original complaint was that in ArmA and such you can often spend minutes or even hours before actually finding a target and when you do, you die right away

So make a mode in portal where the factions use their faction specific weapons, so you can for example make an somewhat “accurate” ww2 scenario but with the active combat of battlefield

[dim blade]

That's what is great about portal

you can play the game in a million different ways

[grave lodge]

Mhm

I am just glad they got the bot support so you don’t need an entire community to set up a scenario you wanna play

[dim blade]

I just hope we get honest to god playercounts now, with AI being show seperately

Not see a server being 62/64 and then you connect and you are the only one playing

fucking playercount spoofers smh

[grave lodge]

I doubt they would show bots like that. Bots are made to use any free slots on the server so if they were shown, then every server would just be shown as full

Unless their shown separately like you said

[dim blade]

well you can adjust the AI amount in portal

[grave lodge]

Yeah but in the base game

But in portal I guess it just depends on you so ya

[arctic grove]

Base game it shouldn't be a big issue.

[plush sundial]

DID EA DIE FOR ANYONE ELSE

[grave lodge]

I wouldn’t be surprised if portal only shows the amount of players, but has a server info area where it shows if AI’s are simply enabled or disabled

[plush sundial]

[arctic grove]

Yeah, most likely this will be the case. I'm sure the devs know what to include in server info and what not to.

[hybrid steppe]

You know what could be a useful feature

Showing how many people are playing certain class/specialist

[arctic grove]

subscribe to codfather if you want a daily dosis of activision and cod roasting

The whole idea is that bots will pad out the base servers, so every server would be showing as full if they ‘lied’ and showed bots as players

[plush sundial]

codfather is cringe

[grave lodge]

Wasn’t the amount of bots in the base game or portal limited to 64? Think I heard that somewhere

[plush sundial]

muh sbmm bad and is literally killing the game (ignores the fact every cod game had some form of sbmm even in unranked)

[hybrid steppe]

SBMM is trash tbh though

[plush sundial]

depends on implementation

[arctic grove]

When you learn bo2 had sbmm all along

[plush sundial]

i think MW did it okay but it acts too fast

BF4's "SBMM" is awful
