battlefield-2042

[nova ice]

what im wondering though, is why theyre releasing a short film which is meant to be primarilty naval warfare

but they said theres no naval warfare in the game at launch

im wondering if theres gonna be more content at launch than theyve said

im also wondering, why havnt we seen any destruction yet

usually the first thing they show

its not even really in the cinematic trailer, other than the tornado throwing shit around

[wet ledge]

I need to be added but i know i won't be added

[storm sentinel]

need my refund after i dont see any gameplay at all

[severe hill]

patience

pretty sure there is a good reason they are not showing gameplay

[storm sentinel]

hope so 😌

[nova ice]

can we do this in portal? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7atZfX85nd4

and this? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fn3KWM1kuAw

[wheat marsh]

i wonder why squads are only 4 people

[arctic grove]

[nova ice]

sQUAD

[wheat marsh]

oof

[sullen badge]

imagine refunding 2 months before release because they haven't spoiled gameplay by releasing everything at once

[nova ice]

squads were always 4 in bf

until bf4

[sullen badge]

before open beta no less

[serene crown]

no 6 in bf2

[nova ice]

really?

[serene crown]

yep

[sullen badge]

Yea

[nova ice]

oh ill shut up then

been soooo many years since i played bf2

[serene crown]

i believe bf2042 will have two 4 man squads in one 8 man platoon

[torpid shuttle]

They should increase maxium number of people in 1 squad.

[nova ice]

haha

read that as 1 per squad before the edit

[serene crown]

like PR and squad with 8?...yeah I agree

specailly with 64 player teams

[nova ice]

i liked how planetside 2 did it

squads and platoons

with the squad leaders able to communicate

[serene crown]

i think i read bf2042 was gonna do that

[nova ice]

would be nice

[serene crown]

yeah for sure

[neat mist]

Nig||httime||

[nova ice]

to be able to communicate more wideley with the team

[torpid shuttle]

128 / 4 players = 32 squads
128 / 8 players = 16 squads

[nova ice]

but not just open chat with 64 other team mates telling you how theyre gonna fook your mother and you should die in a fire

[serene crown]

well it would be two 4 man squads together

[nova ice]

i think all squad leaders should be able to talk to eachother

[wheat marsh]

its not a multiplayer game if no one talks about each other's mother

[serene crown]

in squad and PR they can communicate to SL level

[nova ice]

its awful all squads just doing their own thing

the ability for all squads to communicate somehow would add so much more

[storm sentinel]

8 plyrs r gonna be more fun

[neat mist]

Commander does exist

[wheat marsh]

commander exist in 2042?

[neat mist]

Well im assuming so

[torpid shuttle]

No info. Maybe no

[wheat marsh]

i get surprised when people actually use it

[neat mist]

I use it

[nova ice]

commander is useless though

[serene crown]

yeah...but thats traditional public games...scrims and tournaments are different...i think with portal and being able make your own servers we will be getting back to clan scrims and tournament play

[nova ice]

noone used it in bf4, it was a gimmick

was cool to try

[neat mist]

Thats just a lie

[nova ice]

and its just one guy who noone knows

[serene crown]

and commander in bf2 stunk to high heaven

[nova ice]

telling people to do things

[neat mist]

Commander is good when in the right hands

[nova ice]

theres still no communication between squads

oh yeah

in the right hands

which is why i said its useless

[neat mist]

Its not tho

[wheat marsh]

a higher being tell you to capture this objective

[serene crown]

again in tournament play

[neat mist]

Even if its an idiot using it, it still has use

Useless is the wrong word

[nova ice]

it is, in bf4 when it came out, commander was cool and everyone wanted to use it

[neat mist]

More like

Pointless

[nova ice]

without knowing what to do

and now in bf4

there is NEVER commander

noone wants to use it

[neat mist]

Not true

[nova ice]

so commander mode is useless

[neat mist]

Stop with the hyperboles my guy

[wheat marsh]

there are, its just not fun playing it as much as playing on the ground

[nova ice]

i played bf4 for a couple of months recently, i think i had one match with a commander in it

ok let me rephrase, commander mode is useless when people who dont know how to use it, use it, and its also useless when noone is using it

which is most of the time

[serene crown]

in bf2 commander power went too far with arty on individual players etc...in bf4 it didnt go far enough...also i miss the way points squad leaders could draw on the maps...i thought that was useful

[nova ice]

drawing on the map is not useless, and its not done enough

[serene crown]

i used to use the way points to see who in my squad was following me those that werent would get the boot

[nova ice]

cs go used to have it

but everyone was drawing dicks

they removed it

[serene crown]

if you recall in bf2 it was point to point lines

[nova ice]

ah ok

[serene crown]

as well as colored flares

only your team.squad could see the flare

[nova ice]

why is it assumed commander mode is returning btw?

[serene crown]

well 19 years of trial and error for BF developement...im confidant they have it sorted out and this one will be the best

[nova ice]

i think commander mode would be better with multiple commanders

[indigo igloo]

Is it safe to say that 2042 will be the best battlefield game ever

[serene crown]

YES!!

[round cave]

No cause it will cost money with Battlepass

[wheat marsh]

pretty bold assumption there

[serene crown]

what?...its $60 total cost

[nova ice]

the best games ever have already happened

there will never be another best game ever

[round cave]

Let's hope it doesn't release with major bugs along with the Microtransactions

[serene crown]

BF2042 will be 19 years worth of trial and error

[torpid shuttle]

I am gonna play BF2 while i am waiting BF2042.

[round cave]

Why not BF4?

[nova ice]

not as long as games as a service and microtransactions are around

[serene crown]

im playing them all man

from bf42 to bfv...with speacial attention to bf4

[round cave]

We pay full price and have to pay more for the crap they wanna entice u with

[torpid shuttle]

I play it too. But I prefer BF2. There is bot support

[wheat marsh]

gonna miss a storyline campaign in 2042

[serene crown]

im still using my default skins in bfv

[round cave]

And without a single player mode which is disappointing to me, even if it would suck

[wheat marsh]

ikr. a modern battlefield game with campaign would be fun

[serene crown]

i have like 100,000 CC and a bunch of free boins

[torpid shuttle]

Do you mean Campaign mode?

[round cave]

Yea

[serene crown]

BF traditionally didnt have a campaign mode ...the story line w/multi is the campaign this time

[torpid shuttle]

I never expect this mode. Story is sooooo.... meh

[serene crown]

i havent played one campaign in any BF game

[round cave]

It would only justify its full price tag release since it's gonna be riddles with Microtransactions

[torpid shuttle]

They replace campaign with Solo with Bot is the good one.

[serene crown]

thats the way it used to be

[round cave]

Stupid battlepass

[indigo igloo]

I thought people only played fps games for the multiplayer

[round cave]

Yet... I will still buy the game

[torpid shuttle]

It's only skin, isn't it?

[serene crown]

why you so worried about battle pass?

[wheat marsh]

there's probably going to be seasons too like in cod

[serene crown]

yeah only cosmetics

[round cave]

I worry about any game that comes with them

[serene crown]

oh right they tend to get outlandish?

[torpid shuttle]

Free pass you can unlock new weapon / specialist.

[serene crown]

but you can level that shit up

[round cave]

I do hope it's gonna be as awesome as it Looks, cause it can look good but be bad

[serene crown]

itll be good

[torpid shuttle]

it will be good

[wheat marsh]

more like we hope it would be good

[torpid shuttle]

I heard Hazard zone will be free to play.

[round cave]

I wonder how CoD will be affected by the Activision situation

[serene crown]

take it from uncle Zen Ive been playing BF since day one hour one...i was in the bf1942 demo server the first day...i played them all...and i have a very confidant feel for this one

[torpid shuttle]

They official cancel CoD MW3 remaster.

[serene crown]

CoD will sink...they shivering in their britches now

[wheat marsh]

impossible. cod is american propaganda.

[serene crown]

CoD will probably go back to its roots ...a single player game

[torpid shuttle]

Titanic

[torpid shuttle]

Haha

[spark acorn]

morning acttive user sagagt505

[torpid shuttle]

Good afternoon. Mr.Omni man

[round cave]

Maybe it will be sold when Activision tanks in the aftermath

[wheat marsh]

i heard from sources cod games get sponsored from US army

cause lets be honest, its good advertisement

cant see it go under

[serene crown]

what about americas army game?

is that still a thing?

[spark acorn]

I just wanna see a major company like Activision fall.

Bankrupt those fuckers.

[serene crown]

it was developed by the US army and a damned good game

[round cave]

Yes yes, I feel the same about EA

[hardy kestrel]

Don't think so. Much more efficient to piggy back off of something organic like COD. Having America army game a bit too on the nose

[spark acorn]

Bruh.

[ionic thunder]

this game is too good to be false, thank god its real

[round cave]

Waiting for October

So I can die many times more than I get kills

[wheat marsh]

they call you 007. 0 kills 0 assists 7 deaths

[ionic thunder]

not just me sitting in a chair for 3 months until this game comes out right?

[serene crown]

hahaha...first few weeks of any new shooter theres a lotta snipers

[hardy kestrel]

I'll be there to revive you each an everytime using my revive missiles from my f35 high in the clouds

[ionic thunder]

scary stuff

[serene crown]

notice how thin the snipers are in bf4 these days?

[wheat marsh]

because its hard to 1 hit kill w/ snipers in bf4

[tribal minnow]

Where is the f-22

I want

[wheat marsh]

i played bf1 and i was surprised those snipers 1 hit kill

[tribal minnow]

F-22

[serene crown]

certain traditional sniper maps they werent that many

[round cave]

Idk about that... I'm pretty sure ur gonna be too busy jumping out to shoot rockets at other jets in a fashionable kill cam stunt while u jump back in ur f35

[serene crown]

i mean i hate snipers even on my own team

[wheat marsh]

snipers in bf4 only good for motion sensor and spawn beacon

[serene crown]

SL should get the beacons automatically

its always spaced me out that they didnt

[true jacinth]

Hello chattt

[round cave]

Hi

Go to bed

[serene crown]

why sniper?...so the bitch dont have to hustle back to his secure nest?

[true jacinth]

Lmao

n o

[round cave]

[torpid shuttle]

BF2 AIX mod looks fun.

[frozen slate]

Yup their main focus will be Warzone instead of multiplayer in COD in future games and that will make them lose their fan base a bit I think

[spark acorn]

I hope so lol.

[frozen slate]

Never been a fan of BR tbh and I'm surprised Dice tried it once with BFV

[spark acorn]

They wanted to ride the BR hype back then, it didn't work for them since it was hidden behind a paywall (the game being the paywall to access the BR).

And also not a big enough playerbase to sustain a BR mode.

[storm sentinel]

leak portal BF 2042??

[frozen slate]

Yeah BFV was definitely... a mess

[spark acorn]

But I think they can work it well enough with this next one, since I heard it could be a f2p BR or escape from tarkov style BR.

[frozen slate]

They might have it in mobile actually

But yeah it could also be in this next one too

[spark acorn]

I think it will really work with mobile.

We're actually getting a BF mobile next year, lol.

[frozen slate]

Yeah true lol

[storm sentinel]

CocaCola Company gonna support EA 😄

[frozen slate]

I wouldn't be surprised

[storm sentinel]

evry 2 years EA gonna make new game BF

[frozen slate]

Man I remember before the reveal how everyone was waiting for more updates and news on Battlefield 6 every week

We were ready for that reveal and it was hype imo

[storm sentinel]

ervy day until now

[frozen slate]

Yeah

[arctic grove]

dang splitgate is actually pretty fun

is there a halo beta?

[frozen slate]

Battlefield 4 and 2042 might actually tie, but I feel like more people will be on 2042 in the first few weeks when it releases and during the beta next month

[frozen slate]

Halo Infinite beta?

[storm sentinel]

alot of fun and they r good at fixing adding more server

[arctic grove]

optimization is great too

im at a stable 360fps all ultra

[indigo storm]

what are y'all having for lunch

[fickle vector]

pizza!

[ripe pumice]

We get anything new today?

[forest spear]

yh, hoping there's conquest mode idk how 64 players will work. i assume there's gonna be a br mode which will be hazard zone i guess

they managed to do apex mobile

[ripe pumice]

People really saying “Battlefield is finally going on mobile” when Bad Company 2 Mobile came out over 10 years ago

[fickle vector]

kids

[serene crown]

BF on mobile...thats kinda cheesy

[ripe pumice]

For real, seems like a weird step to go in

Perhaps thats our 2042 campaing? (No proof of this being true just some speculation)

[arctic grove]

lmao

no it's going to be a free cashgrab

like cod mobile

[ripe pumice]

Oh yeah nah, may cater to an Asian Market

[stuck spade]

BR needs to stay in CoD

[ripe pumice]

Battlefield had potential with firestorm, they just didn’t put in the effort to maintain it and keep it alive

[indigo storm]

dice is gonna runaway with the money to Thailand vacation

[ripe pumice]

Pull a No Mans Sky

[indigo storm]

Ye

[spark acorn]

Nah I didn't see any potential in it if it was behind a paywall, thats why it died and the same applied to Blackout BR from BO4.

They paywall being the game, because to get Firestorm is to buy BF5.

[ripe pumice]

Yeah thats what I mean, the idea of a destructable battle royale, with tanks and other such vehicles was a great idea, but being behind a paywall, not getting updates, and an already dwindling player base just killed it

[slim bough]

Very true

[spark acorn]

that is right

[slim bough]

Not to mention the looting system was horrible

With plenty of bugs

[spark acorn]

I wouldn't be surprised that Hazard Zone is a F2P BR competitor to Warzone.

But hey we get our own massive f2p BR competing against warzone.

[ripe pumice]

I hope so, otherwise it’ll just end up like Firestorm

[slim bough]

Halo Infinte got a leaked BR mode, at this point any game coming out needs one

Even tho it’s not my cup of tea

[ripe pumice]

Thats the thing, people want that High Stakes High Reward shit like Loot-n-extract and Battle Royales, offers that “any moment I could lose all my shit”

[fickle token]

Will we be able to host our own servers?

[slim bough]

I enjoyed Warzone, recently uninstalled due to the sheer amount of hackers.
Apex is too weird to be good at

[topaz hazel]

Lmao imagine if this game doesn’t have anti-cheat

[slim bough]

Those are top 2 contenders

Oh and there’s fortnite….

[slim bough]

Most likely

[wheat marsh]

because power hungry mods makes money

[fickle token]

Nice, looks like I would get a chance to host my own server on the new battlefield game

[slim bough]

imo every game out at the moment is dry/dead. I’ve recently went back to BF4 but other than that it’s getting kinda stale

[wheat marsh]

host server then play with only bots XD

[slim bough]

they also said bot kills will count towards ranking up and progression

I bet that can be exploited during launch lmao

[ripe pumice]

Yeah in portal you can host your own with whatever gamemodes you can make

[summer forge]

It’s actually amazing ATM. Awesome for new and returning players. Little hard skill curve but honestly that’s always been the case with games that have new mechanics.

[ripe pumice]

I left that game just because of how sweaty it is

[slim bough]

Fortnite at its core is a good game. Just the fact that as soon as I engage, a little 10yr old builds a whole apartment complex is beyond me

Every single time

[frozen slate]

I think the majority of the fanbase got tired of Fortnite is because Epic doesn't have original ideas anymore and they need sponsors to advertise their game now

[summer forge]

It’s really not as bad as you think it is.

On average my games are pretty low skill

It’s old population died and it’s mostly new players now

Who grind challenges

Ez wins but not too easy

[ripe pumice]

I personally like that idea, I love how Call of Duty added Rambo and shit, part of me is hoping DICE does this for BF2042. Though without the characters, just more symbols, weapon blueprints, and patches of these franchises

[slim bough]

The added characters are really cool. Epic now has rights to Naruto so that’s concerning

Fortnites events are top notch

[slim bough]

The Halloween even was so cool

With jigsaw and leather face

[ripe pumice]

Bro if I can have Rick and Peter Griffin crank 90’s on Naruto I’d pay for that shit

[slim bough]

We need more cameos in game

[frozen slate]

Only thing I like about Fortnite is the skins Epic makes... that's about it

[summer forge]

Personally I hate COD. The 13 tick servers kill me

I like to play 30 at the minimum

[slim bough]

I started fortnite around season 3 and left season 7-8

[slim bough]

Agreed

[summer forge]

They promised STW will go free

And never delivered

[frozen slate]

Also when did Epic get rights to Naruto? Just recently?

[summer forge]

About a month ago or something there were rumours

[frozen slate]

Ahh I see

[summer forge]

Idk if or when it got publicly announced

[slim bough]

It got confirmed a few days ago

It’s for next season

[ripe pumice]

Jotaro Kujo pulls up in Fortnite

[summer forge]

Stands as backbling

Holy crap

[slim bough]

Demon Slayer season 2 gonna be so good

[wheat marsh]

o.o

[frozen slate]

See I like how Fortnite has cameos with different characters, I wish other games had stuff and easter eggs like that

[wheat marsh]

ovrhyped

[slim bough]

[fair rain]

WTF am i saying thats blacklisted you d0gsh1t automod

[slim bough]

Hey rustybeans

Heinz or Bush’s

[fair rain]

racist server in bf4, where do i report. its literally called george floyd gaming with "breathtaking" as the quote and its filled with edgy 13 year olds that worship communism

k

[ripe pumice]

Bro what?!?

[slim bough]

Can’t do much lmao

[next onyx]

It's best just to report them through origin

[slim bough]

Hella fucked up tho

[next onyx]

If there are any concerns

[fair rain]

they just spam racist sh`t in the chat and its wack

[slim bough]

Typical preteen

[ripe pumice]

Also never heard of edgy 13 year olds who worship communism say that shit about george floyd

Figured it would be the 13 year old Wheraboos

[fair rain]

also to answer your question, heinz beans without a doubt

[frozen slate]

Bro I'm so ready to have different era battles in Portal

[pure basin]

Beast mode

[frozen slate]

It's definitely a dream come true

[fair rain]

cant wait to see the custom modes in portal

shit will be an absolute blast

[frozen slate]

Hell yeah it's going to be crazy at early launch

[next onyx]

Jet skii superiority

[ripe pumice]

Already got a fictional “Invasion of Iran” mode set

[next onyx]

Eod bot superiority

[fair rain]

will be sick to see old maps remastered

[ripe pumice]

As well as several game ideas to keep the server I play with livley

[frozen slate]

Did you guys pre-order regular, gold, or ultimate edition?

[fair rain]

I wonder if they will be included in normal multiplayer, like the modern ones in bf3/bf4 or whatever

[pure basin]

I’m a sucker for exclusive skins

Ultimate

[frozen slate]

Lol for me it's Battlefield, so of course Ultimate

[fair rain]

I might preorder after the short film releases once I have some mula

[ripe pumice]

Holding until the beta, not having dice give me a fucking helmet with a cross on it again for $70

[fair rain]

gonna get it on steam

[arctic grove]

Just got battlefield 3

[frozen slate]

Nice one of the best classics aside BF4 and BC2

[pure basin]

Is it still active

[arctic grove]

Honestly idk if this is a hot take but bf4 was kinda bad

[pure basin]

How so

[ripe pumice]

On Xbox its not, though Bad Company 2 still got some servers up

[frozen slate]

Yeah I can see why people would say that, what's the reasoning behind why you don't like it?

[arctic grove]

what is hazard zone basically?

The guns just werent fun to play and the vehicles are really annoying

[pure basin]

Lol

[fair rain]

on release it was kinda bad, but after dice la fixed it up it was goated

[pure basin]

Lololol

[frozen slate]

The new BR mode

I'm kidding lol

[pure basin]

U think vehicles in bf4 were annoying?

Have u played bf5

[arctic grove]

Maps werent that interesting either

[arctic grove]

I play bfv regularly

[pure basin]

I think bf4 vehicles are leagues better

[arctic grove]

But i think vehicle players in bfv know how to not be shit

[pure basin]

Nah

The only way you can actually play is sitting on hills and sniping

[frozen slate]

For me BFV had the best movement with gunplay

[ripe pumice]

Laughs in Siege of Shanghai Attack Chopper

[pure basin]

Otherwise you’re just blown up immediately

[frozen slate]

I like how they're returning it in BF 2042

[arctic grove]

Yeah im a scout main and the main reason i dislike bf4 is because the snipers are insanely bad

[ripe pumice]

Facts, went back to Battlefield 1 and was like “holy shit this is weird”

[pure basin]

They’ve improved every installment

[frozen slate]

Makes sense I can see that

[pure basin]

Movement wise

[fair rain]

yea playing bf4 kinda feels weird not being able to jump over walls

[pure basin]

No more getting stuck on hip heights objects lol

[frozen slate]

True I still play BF1 and have the same exact reaction too XD

[frozen slate]

Yup they did indeed

[arctic grove]

Bf1 sniping is so satisfying

[ripe pumice]

You guys think they’ll have the Pilot class again?

[next onyx]

Go back to bf4/h and see how stiff it is

[pure basin]

Good question

[next onyx]

Bf3 actually had good movement

Well. Sorta. The speed was good

[pure basin]

I have no idea if they would bring that back

[next onyx]

Probably not

[pure basin]

Probably

[next onyx]

We had a guy pull out the rocket launcher

[pure basin]

In a cinematic nostalgia trailer yea

[ripe pumice]

I know for the Tanks you just call it in, but with aircraft do you just find area to deploy it or do you just teleport to it Battlefront 1 style

Also I hope that theres more Aircraft than the F-35 and the Su-57

[frozen slate]

It's crazy how much technology has advanced since then, I know this isn't related to Battlefield, but I remember back in 2012 when BOII was revealed and they showed footage of technology we didn't have yet and it's almost 2025 and we have most of it now, kind of the same thing with BF 2042 how there's robot dogs and more weather changes

[pure basin]

Still don’t have active camo sadly

Lol

[frozen slate]

Lol yeah true

[ripe pumice]

Or the CLAW units

Though we did get the Dragonfire Drones. To an extent

[pure basin]

!when

[frozen slate]

Yup next thing you know the next Battlefield will be Battlefield 2062

[pure basin]

:3

[ripe pumice]

Honestly I’d love for Battlefield to go back to Vietnam, though there’s not much you can do for maps

[frozen slate]

Maybe they could

[pure basin]

Next game

[frozen slate]

I mean they did a lot with BF1

But then again it was WW1

[arctic grove]

No

[ripe pumice]

Yeah true, just got the map situation, but weapon and vehicle wise got alot there

[frozen slate]

So kind of like BO1?

In their own way though?

[ripe pumice]

Not really

[neat mist]

Taekwondo is kinda cool

[pure basin]

:3

[iron hound]

Hm

[ripe pumice]

But you can pull from some iconic weapons from WW2 like the Arisaka Rifle, the M1 Sniper Variant, and the Owen Gun. Also got the more modern stuff at the time like the Colt Commando, the AK-47, and the m/45

[frozen slate]

Oh hell yeah that would be sick!

[ripe pumice]

The Owen Gun is one thing I wished we got in Battlefield V. That or the Austen Gun look cool as hell

[frozen slate]

Don't know if Dice would ever do a Battlefield vietnam-based game though sadly..

[frozen slate]

Yeah we should've

[compact gorge]

We don't need another Vietnam based war game

[ripe pumice]

What other vietnam games do we have?

[crude scroll]

no

[ripe pumice]

Besides Rising Storm 2

[compact gorge]

Like, all the war games

[ripe pumice]

Such as?

[compact gorge]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Vietnam_War_games?wprov=sfla1

[frozen slate]

Lol I was looking at the same thing too Clank

[compact gorge]

There's a fair few

Even a battlefield in there

[frozen slate]

Originally Call of Duty was supposed to have a vietnam game back with PS3, Xbox 360, and PC but it got canceled

[compact gorge]

Vietnam is so overplayed in war media, so meh. Maybe on a few years it could be cool to revisit. Cod just had a game with a few levels set in it

[ripe pumice]

I’m not saying theres none, what I’m saying is that we have a huge gap from the last few games set in Vietnam.

You see a bunch through 2004-2011 then you see scattered releases from 2012 to 2021

[compact gorge]

True but still

[indigo igloo]

Vietnam in war games is definitely overplayed they milked it too much

[compact gorge]

We don't need no more 'nam

[ripe pumice]

Could you not say the same for World War 2?

[compact gorge]

There was war other places too

Yes we could

But ww2 is less specific with a location and theme

A ww2 game could be anywhere

But still, ww2 is pretty overplayed too

[ripe pumice]

Oh yeah thats one thing that makes it hard for a Vietnam game, not so many map ideas, got just River Delta, Deep Jungle, Ruined City, and Mountainous Valley

I’d love to see it make a return, but DICE has to really make a run for map ideas

[frozen slate]

What if it was set in a fictional WW3?

[ripe pumice]

Thats one idea that I like as well

[compact gorge]

Don't drag Vietnam into another war, poor country

lol

[frozen slate]

Lol

[ripe pumice]

Maybe a fictional outbreak of war that breaks out in the 80s

Just write up something that gets the nuclear warheads out of military tactics and you got something

[compact gorge]

Eh, just leave Vietnam for now. Just like pick any other location on the earth

[ripe pumice]

For example, a Battlefield ‘82 (Cold War Type Game) can have a map set in the Fulda Gap with the US Army/Bundeswher against East Germany/Red Army

Or a map with the Invasion of Taiwan with the PLA and US Marines

[frozen slate]

Yeah that would probably be the most we get from vietnam in a cold war game tbh

[ripe pumice]

Write up some bs like “ooo we have to invade Vietnam to spread out Chinese Defenses for an attack on their homeland” or “whoops they have WMD sites we gotta go in again”

[compact gorge]

I'm sure Vietnam would love that

[frozen slate]

Lol considering how BFV had women soldiers in the campaign, I wouldn't be surprised, nothing against that it just wasn't historically accurate imo

[ripe pumice]

Pull an Operation: Vietnam Freedom

[compact gorge]

Women soldiers

[ripe pumice]

Thats one thing that pissed me off, there were better ways of portraying Women Soldier of WW2 without shoving them in the faces of people

[indigo igloo]

Vietnam and the Middle East is all overused

How about some lesser known wars

[frozen slate]

Perfectly balanced as all things should be Thanos

[compact gorge]

The women wasn't forced onto people's faces, lmao

[arctic grove]

Congo war would be a good setting

[compact gorge]

Very overused. Pretty sure the last two Cods where set in both too

[frozen slate]

Well one of Dice's executive daughters apparently gave him the idea in an interview of BFV

[ripe pumice]

Bruh the Nordyls story took a heroic story of a British Commando Raid and said “we made the story but with women”

[compact gorge]

That's not exactly forcing tho

[ripe pumice]

A better one should’ve been that of a woman apart of the French Resistance that helps lead her followers in several sabotage acts ahead of the Normandy Campaing

[frozen slate]

I just wish it was historically accurate like BF1

[compact gorge]

Right

[frozen slate]

BF 2042 makes sense though

[ripe pumice]

Another story could’ve been that of the “Fighting Girlfriend” T-34 about a woman who lost her fiancé to the German and wrote to Stalin asking for a T-34 so she can enact her revenge

If they added the Soviets in BFV

[frozen slate]

I have to say that wouldn't have been a bad idea tbh

[compact gorge]

Those are stories that would be cool to see

[ripe pumice]

Thats what pissed me off, they went “we put a girl in here instead of a boy,” it just screams “we did no research so we said fuck it”

[clever sequoia]

Post-colonial Africa

[frozen slate]

Pretty much they did research though, they just didn't use it well enough like with BF1

That's the time when EA and Dice were struggling

[fair rain]

they went sjw route

[frozen slate]

Yup exactly this right here

[compact gorge]

Oh god...

[frozen slate]

Don't get me wrong I love women in video games, but as Cam said there are other ways to make a game with them in it as a leading female role

Look at Tomb Raider for instance

[compact gorge]

The Nordlys story is super condensed anyway, for what happened. Pretty sure the character you play is supposed to be multiple characters. This happens all the time in stories based on real life. What does it matter that it was a woman in this instance? Its not exactly a history book to begin with

[ripe pumice]

DICE went “Fuck the actual women who participated in WW2, we believe you guys were weak and had to make up a character of societys standards of today”

[compact gorge]

Uh

Or maybe, becuase they have limited budgets, and maps and stories they can add. They decided to take creative liberties

I doubt anyone looks at the Nordlys mission and goes, ah a singular woman did all that in real life

[ripe pumice]

Yeah thats one part of it. Only could do the Soviet story if we had the Soviets. Same with the French Resistance. But we could’ve had a British SOE agent in France

Or a woman forced into fighting for the Volkssturm in the Final days of the war

[frozen slate]

Yeah it would've made more sense

But I think Dice has learned with 2042 so I forgive them for that

[compact gorge]

They didn't need to learn anything

lol

[ripe pumice]

Oh yeah, bruh seeing people mad about women soldiers in 2042 is dumb as hell

[compact gorge]

Not about historical accuracy anyway

It's a game where you can fly horses on planes. I think that was bf1 but still.

[ripe pumice]

Like dude we have women apart of some armies now and 2042 is about No-Pats so you’re gonna get people of all different lifestyles and backgrounds

[frozen slate]

Do we have women soldiers in real life now? Yes. So what's the issue here?

[fair rain]

1 word, incels

[ripe pumice]

Thats what I’m saying, dudes mad about women carrying guns in a near-future shooter

[compact gorge]

"Women ofc during ww3 had to be sent home in fear of their monthly mood swings would interfere with key strategic fights". That's probably what the incels are thinking

[frozen slate]

I mean I guess but still

[ripe pumice]

Man this really got off topic

[compact gorge]

Also, would it matter anyway who carries what gun today? It's

1. Set 20 years in the future.
2. 100% fictional anyway
3. And it's also a video game where you can jump out of a jet, rocket launcher another plane and jump back in, so like, accuracy to real life is where exactly?!?!?

[jovial jay]

I'd rather have a fictional war than Vietnam

[spark acorn]

agreed

[ripe pumice]

Yeah no thats what I’m telling them, this isn’t set in the past, its set in the future, and the story says these are more rag tag rebels than an organized military force with the luxury of choosing who enters combat and who doesn’t

[frozen slate]

What was the topic about again?

[ripe pumice]

Well its about Battlefield 2042

[frozen slate]

Oh true but we're talking about 2042 now

[ripe pumice]

Oh right, hopefully we see more jets than just the F-35 and the Su-57

[frozen slate]

Definitely, love to see me flying some jets and taking out other war dogs haha

[fair rain]

I hope we get good naval combat maps

[compact gorge]

I would just like to point out that
#BattlefieldMoments
Basically just invalidates the idea that Battlefield should be historically accurate. The game never was, and will be simply because of those kinds of stuff can't be. A woman is 100% more believable than some of the stuff you can do in the games. So idk why so many people draw the line at women when it comes to immersion.

[ripe pumice]

I believe DICE said we wouldn’t get Naval Combat at launch, but doesn’t mean we wont get it

[fair rain]

Imagine a special vehicle for a team like a Destroyer Warship or some shit that the commander controls and you have little boat fights in the sea near an island

[jovial jay]

and sharks

[ripe pumice]

I hope we can control Destroyers again like in BF1

[fair rain]

i loved the giant vehicles in bf1, the blimp, the train, the ship

[ripe pumice]

The Behemoths?

[jovial jay]

idk would it be right tho, destroyers nowadays are huge

[compact gorge]

The Behemoths where awesome

We need them back

[frozen slate]

We get it man, let's just move on and talk about 2042 now

[compact gorge]

Yeah

Good idea

[ripe pumice]

Destroyers nowandays have just one main battery, and several smaller guns atop of it

[jovial jay]

manning a corvette would be a better idea

[ripe pumice]

Thats actually a better call

[fair rain]

I just hope for some sick naval maps

having boat fights is fun

i suck at flying

[jovial jay]

I just hope for mouse flying lol

[frozen slate]

True for me personally I enjoy the jet and flying fights

[compact gorge]

Naval battles would be fun

[ripe pumice]

Unlikley, but I hope we can get some crew manned jets.

[frozen slate]

That would be awesome

[ripe pumice]

Something between the Fighter and Attack jets. A mix of both

[fair rain]

playing paracel storm on bf4 rn and the boat scraps are lit. just blasting the minigun at other boats and ski doos

[jovial jay]

there's a bunch of 2 seats jets so it's possible

[fair rain]

2 seater jets would be cool, one flying the other gunning or something

[ripe pumice]

Yeah DICE could have the F-15 Strike Eagle and the Russians could have the Su-34 Fullback. One controls the Anti-Air weaponry and the other controlling the Anti-Surface Weaponry

[spark acorn]

Yeah its gonna look good, also what do you think of The Suicide Squad movie?

[compact gorge]

What about something like a modern day gunship in the air? Like that one killstreak in cod

Idk the names of ships and planes and stuff

[ripe pumice]

20x better than the last one

[compact gorge]

Though it was awesome

[spark acorn]

100% yeah

[compact gorge]

20x better is a low bar

What if we got the suicide Squad in battlefield

King shark just running around eating people

[ripe pumice]

An AC-130 Futurized Variant would be cool, deadly with a squad that communicates, weak with a squad of randos

[frozen slate]

Lol love to see it happen

[compact gorge]

Yes, that's the ship. Would be neat to see as some sort of Bahemoth equivalent

[ripe pumice]

They’re coming out with a Suicide Squad game next year, only got a Cinematic Trailer though

[compact gorge]

That game better be good

[compact gorge]

Hmm

[arctic grove]

whats this

[compact gorge]

Hmm

It is now the future

[ripe pumice]

Another fuck looking for attention

Its all bs crap

[frozen slate]

It's the code for BF 2062

[ripe pumice]

Lmao, but fr tho, its a shitty attempt at being a leaker or some shit

[compact gorge]

Random thought. I wonder if we can script the tornado in Portal

Like how often it comes out, and possibly where it goes on the map

[frozen slate]

Possibly so since we can customize modes and such

[compact gorge]

Neat

Would be dope if we could trigger it based on people's killstreaks

So if somone has too many kills, it could come in

[frozen slate]

I tell you man Battlefield is going places with portal, meanwhile Cod with Warzone..

[indigo igloo]

I also think most people would rather have a fictional war than Vietnam

[compact gorge]

Warzone is weird

[frozen slate]

Oh so like your war with the Avengers Thanos?

[indigo igloo]

Since 2042 is set 20 years in the future I think that’s a good thing

[jovial jay]

lol COD can have their Dudes with guns fight with Dudes with guns

[compact gorge]

Thanos in battlefield confirmed. Let's go

[ripe pumice]

Hell a Battlefield game set in the Strangereal Universe would be cool as hell. Make up your own maps with no regard for following any maps or climates from real life as well has having bat shit insane mega weapons to use

[jovial jay]

while BF will have Tiger tanks fighting robot dogs

[frozen slate]

He can snap half of humanity from existence and end the battle

[compact gorge]

Hopefully that half is the enemy forces

[frozen slate]

Just look at BOII for example

[arctic grove]

omg I can't wait for the launch

[compact gorge]

Though, if we watch endgame we know that you can specify who it affects anyway and it doesn't have to be half. That was just Thano's thing in IW

[arctic grove]

so this is what Einstein meant by relativity

[compact gorge]

Yes

Actually, no this is a different relativity. Somone else discovered that I think

[ripe pumice]

Thats what I love about Black Ops 2. Not too far from in the future, but not too close to current times. That and Ghost Recon Future Soldier do this well

[frozen slate]

Bro I remember when many people gave BO2 crap at launch

[indigo igloo]

What about a battlefield like halo which is straight up fictional

[frozen slate]

And now it's praised as one of the best Cods to date aside from MW2

[ripe pumice]

Such as 2142?

[compact gorge]

Halo Battlefield

Isn't that just Halo?

[indigo igloo]

True

[compact gorge]

Well, Halo is smaller scale I guess

[frozen slate]

Halo wars isn't their own battlefield?

[compact gorge]

But Halo has the assets for a battlefield type game

[compact gorge]

Halo wars is an rts

[frozen slate]

Oh lol

[ripe pumice]

Ace Combat in Battlefield would be cool as hell. Crazy ass weapons, made up world with the weapons and vehicles of ours as well as interesting locations for maps

[jovial jay]

I remember Bo3 campaign making no senses to me

[compact gorge]

Battlefield into the battle-verse

[ripe pumice]

Train Go Boom

[jovial jay]

yea lol

and the end missions were just strange

[compact gorge]

Wait that's just Portal

[frozen slate]

Imho the black ops series should've ended at BO2

[ripe pumice]

That and Black Ops 4 are the weakest links in the Black Ops franchise

[frozen slate]

But of course Treyarch wanted to milk it even more

[ripe pumice]

I loved the Cold War Campaing and Zombies Storyline, multiplayers a different story

[frozen slate]

They lost all their good people, now it's only Vondehaar there

[compact gorge]

Cold war multiplayer is fun

I seem to be the only person thst thought that

Oof

[frozen slate]

Eh it's aight to me, still love BO2 better

[compact gorge]

That's fair

[arctic grove]

Well they got the folks who made Warzone in BF haha, so I am confident it will do well

[frozen slate]

Good maps, gun play, scorestreaks, etc.

Guns were balanced at least

[ripe pumice]

I’m hoping that Call of Duty pulls a portal mode as well if BF Portal does well. Would love to play withe WAW weapons on a Modern Warfare map while using Black Ops 2 killstreaks

[native mantle]

is it?

[compact gorge]

Imagine the file size of that

[frozen slate]

Would be cool, but Activision really loves Warzone

[frozen slate]

Also true XD

[ripe pumice]

I mean, the dude has 13 Gallons of Pesticide in his bio so not much of a giveaway

[frozen slate]

Cod takes up more storage than BF now lol

[compact gorge]

I mean, I imagine 2042's filesize is also gonna be fucked becuase of Portal

[native mantle]

"the dude" who you reffering to specificly?

[compact gorge]

If they keep adding levels to both

[ripe pumice]

Yeah, also know its fake cause he did this shit in the Hendreson Server

[frozen slate]

Yeah but I would hope Dice knows how to handle storage unlike Activision

[compact gorge]

Hopefully

[native mantle]

he got the codes from me btw..

[compact gorge]

From what I heard, cod does it so big to help save loading time

[native mantle]

he did something somewhere else,ergo its fake,thats your logical explanation/reasoning?

[frozen slate]

Well I could care less about that

[native mantle]

[compact gorge]

Becuase if they compressed it more, then things would take longer to load becuase of the system having to uncompress it in memory

Or something like that

[frozen slate]

Doesn't make sense if we have powerful consoles and such nowadays

[ripe pumice]

Well dude, he pulled that shit off in the Hendreson server looking for attention, pulling the Boy Cries Wolf shit again

[frozen slate]

They just want us to stick with one Cod i think, which is why they combined MW19 and CW

[compact gorge]

True. I imagine they could slim the game down a lot with the recent tech

[native mantle]

thats hes problem but i think thats not important

the codes are tho

[frozen slate]

If he wants attention just let mods handle it

[ripe pumice]

But what are the codes for even?

[compact gorge]

I just wanna know how Epic managed to slim Fortnite down from being a 100GB game to just round 30. Cod needs to figure out what that was and do the same

[frozen slate]

Because Epic is smart and not so greedy, and we all know how Activision is lol

[native mantle]

to be decoded i guess

[compact gorge]

True, true

[frozen slate]

I will say though EA has gotten better and toned down their greediness a bit

[ripe pumice]

And where did you get these codes from? Dont just come outta thin air if they’re real

[compact gorge]

I wonder if the concpirscy theories are true. That Activision is forcing them to keep the games so big that people can't download other games, forcing them to play cod more

Idk if it's true but I heard people speculate that

[native mantle]

so you dont know anything about the 2nd kevinsimpson site or the time traveler's ytb channel i see...

[ripe pumice]

The hell are those?

[frozen slate]

Would make the most sense imo

[ripe pumice]

First I’ve heard of this

[native mantle]

i got the codes from the site during the reveal stream lmao

[frozen slate]

And then there's Warzone too

[native mantle]

not many people keeping up with this atm,mostly cause they are lacking information and the little they know its not enough for them to see the bigger picture

the fact that this is not just some fan bs...

[frozen slate]

@ripe pumice @compact gorge Well I think I'm going to head off for tonight, it was fun talking with you guys

[native mantle]

NiklasAstrand could confirm this lmfao

[ripe pumice]

Yeah man take care

[compact gorge]

Cya

[native mantle]

in a way he did with his twitter account

[frozen slate]

Hope to talk more about the exodus event and more news on 2042 soon

[ripe pumice]

And this guy you’re talking about, is he just giving out coded messages or leaking information on the game

[native mantle]

well getting in to this would take a lot of time

he hinted tons of tons of infos way before the game was revealed

[ripe pumice]

Around the time of Tom Hendreson and such?

[native mantle]

before anyone else

[arctic grove]

i want get it for free

this game

how i get it

[ripe pumice]

Ping Dietz, he’s giving codes out

[arctic grove]

where ??

[ripe pumice]

Again, how did you get it, and have you solved them?

[arctic grove]

theyre from reveal and theyre onto something

349 is some key

[arctic grove]

what is it

[native mantle]

he got it from me

[arctic grove]

yes

we need help

[native mantle]

and as far as i can tell he doesnt know shit

[arctic grove]

decoding

[arctic grove]

yes

[ripe pumice]

Try cyphers, cant narrow down exactly which ones to use

[native mantle]

its very likely that these are enigma codes

decoding them is straight up impossible

without the "key"

without the "how"

[arctic grove]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0BlWZR2JxVM look this guy knew abt 2042 since dec 2020

note the 6 and 2042 on the emblem

it no joke

this guys channel is something

[native mantle]

without a doubt

that channel is managed by someone who knew things that only people from dice knew

[arctic grove]

https://youtu.be/e5LtqYxYcqw?t=70 he had the bf2042 theme/glitch format in feb 2021

[native mantle]

take a look at the youtube channel,what was posted recently and what words were used in the community section

than take a look what Niklas Åstrand posted recently an what words he used.... on his twitter page

coicidence?i dont think so

[ripe pumice]

Taking a look at it, this could be something to look forward to, but not to take as 100% confirmed

[arctic grove]

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKfR0EpmHYc3Ts42W2e3VTw yea but this yt channel is sus af

100% a leaker/dice employee

behind it

[spark acorn]

damn

i want the game now!

[pine cave]

yes

[ripe pumice]

By January, most people were guessing Battlefield would do something modern or after BF4. And with their most recent video the guy could’ve waited for the Exodus Trailer to drop and use the “The World Wants to Forget Us” line. No clue at what time this came out at or how long it was after the first teaser for the Exodus trailer

[tame cobalt]

What's going on

[ripe pumice]

Two people thinking they found another Tom Hendreson

[arctic grove]

if some1 speaks russian and can translate all the comms it would be gr8 too

[tame cobalt]

What exciting thing did tom henderson 2 leak

[ripe pumice]

But cant really pin down why the account exist

[arctic grove]

hes legit tho

tenderson can be whack sometimes

[ripe pumice]

How do you know this to be legit

[arctic grove]

not a coincidence

cannot be a guess

[native mantle]

bruh forget everything that you heard,tell me if anyone else from the internet predicted bf6 title as bf2042 7 months ago?

[arctic grove]

especially that henderson didnt know that the next bf is gonna be bf2042

henderson actually said that it will just be called "battlefield"

which is just wrong

[pine cave]

lol

[ripe pumice]

Where does the dude say the title in those videos?

[arctic grove]

this guy knew since dec 2020

simply cannot be guess-leaker like henderson

hes much bigger

[spark acorn]

i want the game now 😢

[tame cobalt]

What is the thing to look forward to??

[spark acorn]

[arctic grove]

then in feb 2021 he has the glitch/theme/color of bf2042

[spark acorn]

[arctic grove]

henderson didnt even come close

to this degree of accuracy

[manic vessel]

why you hypin its not coming in a few weeks or months hopefully not years

[ripe pumice]

I’m saying to watch him, see what he does next, but don’t follow yet, see how credible his next drop is

[arctic grove]

tho henderson gave important intel

[tame cobalt]

oh okay

[arctic grove]

hype fam rlly want bf2042 >.<

[native mantle]

treat separatly ok and me cause he just lacking compared...hes playing catch up and from my pov this ytb channel and website are not comparable with Tom,tom is a leaker ,people behind this aint doing it to leak stuff

remember phantom project?

[arctic grove]

yes @native mantle knows more!

[spark acorn]

i want the game now

[arctic grove]

same bro

love the phantom hype lol

best part abt bf community tbh

reminder that bf2042 releases in 2 months which is not that far

[spark acorn]

2 far

[sullen badge]

@spark acorn is my friend

[arctic grove]

I feel you, tho I want horizon 5 to release faster hahah

[sullen badge]

believe it or not

[spark acorn]

SHEESH I don't believe it 👀

cough

[spark acorn]

Fr.

[sullen badge]

I took 2 days off then they delayed new world

[frail sparrow]

i'm carver

[sullen badge]

now im wondering if i cancel those two days or just take 1 day

or just take two days anyway

zz

the dilemma is real

i do have friday-wednesday off for BF2042 actual launch tho

so im hoping that any launch issues get sorted out on the 15th early access launch

[tame cobalt]

That building in the middle of kaleidoscope is gonna be a meat grinder isn't it

[arctic grove]

wait, when’s the very first look at actual gameplay from people who preordered it

[tame cobalt]

wdym?

when will we first get to play it?

Pre-orders get early access to the open beta which is next month

Exact dates haven't been revealed

[arctic grove]

sweet, i was wondering when it would be released

[hoary gate]

i dont think it can get any betterp

Battlefield2042 has modern like realistic war

you can do trickshots

theres bf2042 portal

well ok it can get kinda poop

no story

😦

[native mantle]

[placid aurora]

I want Titan Mode to return.. one of my favorite BF game modes.

[native mantle]

i wanna see Titans in bf2042

ASAP

[hybrid steppe]

Hopefully actual titan mode and not just carrier assault

[tame cobalt]

there is story tho

just no campaign

But this way the story will feel more integrated with the multiplayer which is what we all play

[fair rain]

im not even stressed about no campaign, its not like that is battlefield main selling point. Everyone just plays the goated multiplayer for hundreds of hours

[native mantle]

i havent finishd bf campaigns ever since bf3

lmao

[fair rain]

having all funds and time being funneled into the multiplayer is going to pay off so much. I guarantee this will be the best battlefield, let alone FPS of the next few years

[steady current]

having 4 dev studios to make this game as well

dice alone is big

but we got 4

[fair rain]

yea this game will actually be fire. I cannot wait for 128 player absolute cinematic chaos

[steady current]

just turn on shadowplay. There is no spectator/replay mode

i have my worries about map sizes... i hope sectors will be rly small

but... they cant be. With small sectors plenty of sectors will be not used. Because war line will not be moving

with bigger sectors 90% of map will be empty

[fair rain]

yea hope the maps are good, the Dubai desert city looking one looks dope af

[somber hinge]

hope squad spawning isn't broken like in older bf games

[steady current]

imagine your squad being killed and u need to spawn at flag which is 100km away from battle

dope

i need to pick headphones or speakers. Becuase i have great speakers and playing with BF on these will be awesome. But playing FPS game not on headphones....

[jade plaza]

[cursive ridge]

Idk why but I dislike the saiga

[tepid fossil]

@arctic grove nice

[cursive ridge]

Prefer pumps to semi

[arctic grove]

yeah if you prefer accuracy on a shotgun..

which shouldn't be the point anyway

[tight storm]

[tropic plover]

!when

[arctic grove]

4 days

[steady current]

to get bored again

[arctic grove]

To get even more teased

[wispy igloo]

Top guys are typical cod player, bottom guys are typicsl bf player

[arctic grove]

Agreed

[dull copper]

heard there's some minute video detailing the lore of battlefield 2042. Where can we find?

[tacit sphinx]

the Exodus short film? it comes out in a few days

[azure lodge]

Battlefield 2042 | Exodus Short Film
Premieres <t:1628780400:R>

[tacit sphinx]

(there’s probably also some videos people have put out talking about the lore we have so far but that’s the official one)

[slim quiver]

It’s never coming out. I delayed it….forever

[steady current]

good

bf2042 died due to watanagashi

[arctic grove]

Battlefield 2042 penguin warfare

[tacit sphinx]

tbh i hope we get some more info along with Exodus, like perhaps... new specialist info?

[arctic grove]

And beta info

[tacit sphinx]

i would say beta info would likely be at gamescom assuming they have a segment there

[arctic grove]

That's the end of the month💔

[tacit sphinx]

i feel like Rao could be one they reveal in full, given he’s now fairly detailed from the story chapters

we know his backstory, we know his specialties are to do with hacking equipment, we’ve even seen the HUD icon for the gadget

just don’t know the specifics of what it does yet

[arctic grove]

Too much speculation need something concete

[tacit sphinx]

but at the same time the specialists and weapon list might be something they drop in the direct run up to launch, currently they’ve got other things to keep continuous interest

[surreal cave]

I heard limited play testing is starting next week. Only a new BF vets under NDAs invited. I was in the CTE for the last few BF games so I'm hoping for an invite.

*a few

[tacit sphinx]

CTE doesn’t hold any bearing on the playtest invites afaik

you had to sign up and be randomly selected, it seems like all the invites have gone out now so if you haven’t heard anything probably a safe bet to say you won’t have access

[arctic grove]

Big sad

[sacred depot]

rao will most likely be able to turn off HUDs through hacks

infantry and vehicle hud

[surreal cave]

I guess I thought CTE was the same thing as playtesting. I may be mixing up my terminology

[tacit sphinx]

that’d certainly be interesting although i think that might be more of an EMP type thing, to me it feels like it might focus more on like ‘recruiting’ enemy/neutral equipment

so as an example he could find one of boris’ turrets and convert it

[mortal raft]

The CTE was more testing new updates.
This is a pre release tests of the game.

[thorn aurora]

[sullen inlet]

So

What are we debating about today

Let me start with a fact

Bf3 was the best BF

[pine cave]

yea

[arctic grove]

More of an opinion the fact is 1 is the best

[pine cave]

hmm

[sullen inlet]

If you really think

That 1 was the best

Youll need to see your doctor

[arctic grove]

Bf3 was alright

[modern swan]

cod cold war was the best bf

[arctic grove]

Bf1 just hits different

[sullen inlet]

Bf1 had its flair sometimes

I like the narrator voice

[onyx oar]

https://tenor.com/view/big-lebowski-the-dude-your-opinion-gif-4476328

[arctic grove]

Never lost its flare

Just behemoths got stale real quick

[warped pilot]

Will dice gonna add the su-75 checkmate?

[arctic grove]

Not sure hopefully we see the majority of vehicles in the beta

[tame cobalt]

which 4?

[arctic grove]

Dice centurion ripple effect not sure of the 4th

[warped pilot]

Criterion?

[arctic grove]

Thought they were called centurion mb

[native mantle]

centurion

[arctic grove]

I was right

[native mantle]

yeah

almost

[arctic grove]

Almost?🤣

Ah fuck sake close enough

[native mantle]

so good almost meme worthy...

[arctic grove]

Here look it was good enough for you to know who I was talking about so idc lmao

[topaz crown]

"just counting day the days till BF release day" 😢

[gloomy mason]

whens the ps4 beta/alpha?

[topaz crown]

We don't know

Sometime in September

Hopefully they announce it after Exodus

[gloomy mason]

i saw someone said 6 september

could be false

[astral sage]

6 September? For open beta? Lol that leaves them 5 weeks for. Changes. Yikes.

[topaz crown]

It's normally a month or two before release day to sort bugs out etc, so should be early September as game launches 15th of October for Gold and Ultimate Edition and 22nd is for standard (official launch)

[astral sage]

Just show me a 2 minute gameplay trailer of actual gunplay . Wtf dice

[gloomy mason]

5 weeks are fine , the game is ready they just gonna fix matchmaking bugs and balance guns

xd

[astral sage]

Game is ready but have showed no gunplay lol. Minimal trailers just cgi/scripted. Show me the 128 player battle . Not hard

[quasi sparrow]

Anyone play battle field hardline?

[astral sage]

Small community . But can still find a match
