battlefield-2042

[sullen inlet]

Is it like dynamic theme

For every map

[proud scarab]

Ye

Which is why people shouldn’t just judge the soundtracks until we see them in game >_>

[near relic]

@opal gorge I love dicing my ham with a knife at breakfast time, you pervert. 😄

[proud scarab]

It’s a piece of the puzzle

[hidden sand]

This is about the worst way to justify gambling mechanics I've ever seen.

Just to put things into perspective. Bob Iger, Disneys CEO, called up Andrew Wilson and told him to make changes because of how bad the backlash was.

[proud scarab]

Sure it may be an odd piece, but it brings it together as a whole

[hidden sand]

Ceo at the time, I mean.

[elfin void]

I'm sorry you're saying we're not allowed to judge and complain about a game we haven't touched yet?

[opal gorge]

who gaf as long as specialists arent in the boxes

[proud scarab]

Right

[arctic grove]

i really doubt we will get beta in 22.9

i really do

[elfin void]

Get out of here with your common sense

[proud scarab]

Not to mention, gambling’s been around since the dawn of man just about. 😂😂

[outer sequoia]

Calm down and go touch some ham

[hearty kiln]

I'd like something to judge it off in the first place lol

[elfin void]

And you will get that

[foggy cedar]

He's right though.

[elfin void]

With the beta

Which comes in September

[proud scarab]

I personally didn’t like the combat in BF 2 so I stayed away from it. The loot boxes weren’t a make or break :/

[arctic grove]

i don't believe them

anymore

[hearty kiln]

That's not how marketing works and it hasnt for years lol

[scarlet cloak]

Tbch I'm happy we barely got any footage shown

[tame cobalt]

Where my al sundan haters at

[scarlet cloak]

MAkes it all the more suprising when playing the beta

[elfin void]

Unlucky for you, that's how they're doing it

[still vault]

Friday bonus Penguin is coming for you

[opal gorge]

[proud scarab]

Builds the hype. Like waiting for Christmas as a child.

[hearty kiln]

You market your game to get preorders

[scarlet cloak]

Exactly this

[hidden sand]

You literally couldn't enjoy the game, my dude. It took over 1,500 hours to unlock everything at launch, JUST at launch. It's pretty clear you have no idea what you're talking about regarding BF2, so don't speak on it.

[proud scarab]

https://tenor.com/view/cute-funny-penguin-artic-gentleman-gif-3482217

[opal gorge]

they did end up changing all that, dont forget

[proud scarab]

But muh freedoms 😄

[fleet sinew]

How do I put photos

[opal gorge]

bf2 is a good game now

[nova idol]

If dice wants to make me buy their game im gonna need more than "soon boom june"

[proud scarab]

And I’ve played the game since launch. XD

[edgy eagle]

You should change your name to Bubonic on april fools next year it will be poggere

[outer sequoia]

Wait

Will it be 5 man squads again or 4

[scarlet cloak]

4 man

I believe

[proud scarab]

The game was grindy. So what? XD

[hidden sand]

Bf2 is fkn amazing now, DICE absolutely turned that game around

[opal gorge]

goes to play league of legends

[foggy cedar]

4 Man squads?

[tame cobalt]

Are people unironically defending swbf2's trash lootboxes

[foggy cedar]

For 128 players a map?

[hidden sand]

You are trolling, you have got to be trolling

[oak harness]

You guys like soundtrack? https://strawpoll.vote/polls/mw6nr6ru/vote

[outer sequoia]

Yea cause bfv is 4

[scarlet cloak]

Yea

[arctic grove]

i also want tdm in battlefield 2042

i hope its there in launch

[near relic]

League of legends is a good game

[arctic grove]

ost bad lol

[proud scarab]

You can quit pinging me now. It’s a bit annoying. :/

[near relic]

But over-rated

[arctic grove]

no

[scarlet cloak]

I don't think TDM is there?

[fallen geode]

If it ain't make it in Portal

[hollow geyser]

Bf 2042 is similar to bf 4

It's just got better graphics

[opal gorge]

you've played?

[hollow geyser]

And i didn't like the gun play when the pre tests got leaked

[arctic grove]

i swear they making huge surprises

[tame cobalt]

League of legends is a good game to use as a mental torture device

[hollow geyser]

They better fix that shit

[arctic grove]

that's why no dates

[hidden sand]

I could not imagine defending BF2s loot boxes LOL that is hands down the funniest thing I've seen today, ty

[hearty kiln]

"Our marketing decision is to not market at all"

[sullen inlet]

I want 2042 Metro

[scarlet cloak]

PLEASEEE

[tame cobalt]

Dice: we do a little trolling

[carmine mulch]

no pls

[arctic grove]

why market more when everyone is already talking about the game

[vernal harness]

3 main trailers with close to 40 million views

[hidden sand]

We are a minority

[vernal harness]

"no marketing"

[foggy cedar]

This was stupid.

[hidden sand]

When are people gonna realize this lol

[opal gorge]

i've seen lots of marketing

[arctic grove]

bruh wdym literally everyone online is talking about the game

[sullen inlet]

Imagine vectors, Vals & MP7s on Metro

[foggy cedar]

There's an assload of marketing lmao

[opal gorge]

do we like marketing now?

[sullen inlet]

I was born for this

[opal gorge]

i like games, not advertisements 🤷‍♂️

[sacred depot]

bruh you got game play 6 days ago and the soundtrack barely a day ago

[hidden sand]

No? Sure, communities dedicated to it are
But thats about it

[sacred depot]

how is this no marketing

[pallid cove]

What if 2042 releases tomorrow?

[arctic grove]

"Man this cod looks bad, BF looks way better" I have probably heard that from like 30 different youtubers

[sacred depot]

what the fuck

[scarlet cloak]

Thank you

[foggy cedar]

We like hype, and we like satisfaction of that hype through gameplay.

[arctic grove]

That just isnt true

[royal trail]

didnt 700k watch the reveal of bf2042 live. everyone already knows about it

[proud scarab]

Assumptions, anxiety, anticipation. The AAA of a game launch.

[arctic grove]

Yes marketing is extremely important for selling your game and maintaining good relationships with your target audience

[hearty kiln]

They had to release the soundtrack since it was already leaked lol

[proud scarab]

“Leaked”

[vernal harness]

its like people just want attention and are okay with saying completely wrong things to get it

[hearty kiln]

Yes leaked

To 4chan

You telling me doce marketing visits 4chan unironically?

[proud scarab]

Come on. If you think someone’s just stumbling about something like that then idk what to tell ya

[near relic]

Over 9000chan

[arctic grove]

The official composer released it early...

lol

[proud scarab]

DICE is made up of internet users and coders :/

[foggy cedar]

https://tenor.com/view/tom-and-jerry-what-insomnia-no-sleep-gif-13337078

[proud scarab]

I’m sure some of em use 4chan 😄

[foggy cedar]

Oh, gifs dont work here. w/e

[hearty kiln]

Yes, because it was leaked

[tame cobalt]

wrong

[hidden sand]

They just ripped the files from Spotify

[proud scarab]

https://tenor.com/view/yes-they-do-tiffani-thiessen-lori-mendoza-alexa-and-katie-yeah-they-do-gif-17144662

[opal gorge]

meanwhile "cyberpunk was overhyped wahhh too much marketing"

[foggy cedar]

I literally clicked mine from within discord wtf

[arctic grove]

Not wrong, she released it like a day early

[opal gorge]

i'll see myself out, this is useless

[proud scarab]

Lol

[tame cobalt]

where

[sullen inlet]

Last good BF was

[proud scarab]

Haaaaam come back! XD

[arctic grove]

No not too much marketing. Marketed as a product that it wasn't

[sullen inlet]

Change my mind

[arctic grove]

On her youtube channel

[hearty kiln]

Cyberpunk marketed for 10 years, right? Lol

[hidden sand]

People rip things from Spotify all of the time, I'm not surprised it was leaked so quickly

[foggy cedar]

Get out. Lmfao.

[tame cobalt]

bro that track wasn't even uploaded by her it's an auto generated video provided by some record company

[dense torrent]

one question: will I be able to use to portal to have like bf3 classes but bf2042 guns and stuff like that, becauses that way we could create modes that have standard classes but bf2042 weps, or is the weapons era-locked?

[arctic grove]

8 years I think

[arctic grove]

Celebration time c'mon

[proud scarab]

Unknown.

[arctic grove]

Well still, it was uploaded before intented

[proud scarab]

But anticipated

[arctic grove]

not leaked

[scarlet cloak]

Most probably

[tame cobalt]

That was after the leak

[vernal harness]

almost definitely

but we'll see

[hidden sand]

That was after the leak

[arctic grove]

If not we will all riot so don't worry

[sullen inlet]

@foggy cedar this guy xd

[arctic grove]

well even then it isn't that big of a deal, just an OST

[proud scarab]

^

[hidden sand]

Nobody is saying its a big deal, what is surprising is that they gave up on waiting till the 22nd to make it public officially

[dense torrent]

ngl if that is the case, we can literary just make non-specialists games with bf2042 weapons in portal and that would be pretty cool if we don't want specialists in the game.

[tame cobalt]

Does anyone unironically enjoy al sundan

[proud scarab]

Long story short, we have content, we have confirmation that the game is being worked on, we have several confirmations of DICE keeping their original launch date of both October 22nd AND October 15th and we have more work in development.

[hidden sand]

No

[sullen inlet]

I guess we get the beta announcement a couple days early to allow for preload

[hearty kiln]

I thought I'd come here and hopefully be shut up by someone posting a beta date or live multiplayer gameplay but I guess ea is really doing the "fuck you you'll buy it anyway" marketing strat

[arctic grove]

who cares

[proud scarab]

The hell people

[vernal harness]

if they do, help their soul

[arctic grove]

It's an OST

a bad one at that

so who cares

[hidden sand]

Damn it's almost like people can talk about shit in this public chat

[foggy cedar]

The soundtrack leak was not as big as some of ya'll have made it out to be,.

[opal gorge]

8 years not 10 but you dont care about truth

[north otter]

So I'm gonna text Battlefield once a Day on Instagram to add back the Couch Car to Battlefield Portal and I already started a petition, I'm telling you I will stop at nothing until they bring the Merica back, #BringBackCouchCar

[dense torrent]

Im probably gonna spend 500+ hours on the base 2042 game but 100,000 hours on portal lmao

[arctic grove]

If you buy the game, you'll pay for that bad OST

[hidden sand]

Agreed, nice pfp btw

[nova idol]

Not bad your ears just suck

[arctic grove]

I never said they couldn't?... I was saying who cares that they gave up on not caring when it got leaked like a day or two early

[arctic grove]

Well I always mute the music anyway

so I dont care

[dense torrent]

thanks

[opal gorge]

soundtrack is esoteric

wack af

[hidden sand]

?? I was just mentioning it lol, idgaf if you care or not

[arctic grove]

You're missing out, big time

[opal gorge]

top notch production but a little much imo

[proud scarab]

Soundtrack will fit well with the game, people.

[dense torrent]

or you can mute the music, and play the bf3 theme B)

[topaz hazel]

Idk what they were trying to do with the theme

[foggy cedar]

Whether or not it's good is a matter of opinion.
Fact is that a soundtrack leak is relatively small compared to the hours of leaked alpha footage.

[arctic grove]

based

[proud scarab]

Listen to the apocalypse DLC music from BF 1 on its own compared to in game and you’ll see what they were going for :/

[topaz hazel]

Idc make it fit in a different way

[arctic grove]

well yeah but the leaked footage was to be expected

[pulsar sorrel]

The more i listen to the 2042 theme, the more i like it.

[proud scarab]

That wall must have a pretty nice outline of your head by now ;-;

[topaz hazel]

Funny

[near relic]

bf1942 theme all the way, who is old school? bf 1942 theme owns all

[proud scarab]

I sadly wasn’t joking, because mine does! lol

[arctic grove]

the wall jazz...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_QtmIGPScpY

[foggy cedar]

It always seems to workout like that for me. I hated the BF1 theme. Now?

DUH DUN DUN DUH DUN DUN 🎺

[proud scarab]

STOP! NO! IM SORRY! NO! XD

[dense torrent]

BF4 theme was my fave

the synth was amazing

[pulsar sorrel]

Yeah, bf1 theme just hits different

[hidden sand]

The entire ost is fucking amazing

[sullen inlet]

BF3 earrape theme

[topaz hazel]

Bf4 theme was a good theme

[sullen inlet]

Best

Lol

[topaz hazel]

I think 2042 is the worst battlefield theme

[opal gorge]

entitled: having or showing a feeling of entitlement; spoiled
belief that one is deserving of or entitled to certain privileges

[hidden sand]

Bf4s ost is nonexistent in game
I never hear it while I'm playing, not sure if my games bugged or not

[proud scarab]

🤣👍🏼

[arctic grove]

kinda just a bunch of random noises and off beat sounds with no ryhme or reason, like I could see it working if it was about a cave dwelling schizo going insane for 24 hours, but this is a battlefield game

[near relic]

nobody here are played bf 1942 have they? remember playing on windows 98 and 2000?

[sullen inlet]

Shame, you come to our country to murder us, yet we are the terrorists.

[dense torrent]

The bf4 one is my fave especially the part where it goes "dooooooooooo doooo duuu do doooooooooooo do do doooo dooo do dooo" xD

[sullen inlet]

DUN DUN DUNDUNDUN

[opal gorge]

5 degrees of warming: BWOAAAAHH

[dense torrent]

I've only played bf2

[topaz hazel]

Ok and?

[hidden sand]

I'll do you one better, the first true battlefield game, "Codename Eagle"

[arctic grove]

the only track in the entire ost with any rhythm is the theme, and a majority of that is just taken from the BF1 theme

[dense torrent]

like thats the earliest bf game I played, and only recently lol

[pulsar sorrel]

I can somehow regonise the part

[arctic grove]

You place a price on your product, you gotta deliver
Is that hard to understand?

[near relic]

Windows Vista codename Longhorn hahahaha

[glossy storm]

Eh, I've got mixed feelings about the new BF2042 track.

[hidden sand]

But we're entitled for wanting to know shit about the gameplay, lol, okay

[proud scarab]

Right but everyone’s perception of “good” is different :/

[arctic grove]

That rarely happens with anything, especially when looking at ad's for any product

[proud scarab]

Which is why the entertainment market is one of the hardest

[glossy storm]

I get what they're trying to go for, but there seems to be some unbalanced audio mixing.

[opal gorge]

entitled gamers mad

cope

[topaz hazel]

Well what’s the most popular opinion on the theme rn lol

[opal gorge]

game isnt out yet 🤷‍♂️

[hidden sand]

We saw gameplay for BF1 and BFV before a beta though, that's the difference. It's fair to expect the same.

[arctic grove]

dude it sounds like a guy in a water tank filled with whales blasting the bf1 theme through a nokia

[dense torrent]

I've played bf2, bf4, and bf1. Going to bf2, I remember that reloading worked differently on bf2, thats if you reloaded with a new mag, you don't get to keep the bullets left on the previous mag, I remember just accidentally wasting magazines because I got used to the ammo just topping off reload after reload

[sullen inlet]

We saw 6 seconds of gunplay in the gameplay trailer

XDDDDD

[arctic grove]

We have seen gameplay though

[dense torrent]

theres the gameplay reveal

[proud scarab]

It’s mixed, because yesterday just as many people said it was bad or that they didn’t like it, myself included. I didn’t really like it a whole lot, hearing it just on its own, but I know how DICE works their cinematography so I know it’ll turn out fine in the end. :/ Problem is that people don’t understand perception or other people’s perception.

[dense torrent]

the irish one

the 4 specialists

[opal gorge]

somehow the notion of "dont buy the game if you dont like it" became insulting and implies fault in the game dev for their hard hours of work being not enough

[vernal harness]

orbital and irreversible are much better than the theme imo, but neither fulfill what people expect from a BF theme

[arctic grove]

Yeah

[arctic grove]

Literature, music, movies and games that are considered classic all have universal good qualities about them that everyone can appreciate
So no, not entirely

[dense torrent]

and umm some snippets in the portal presentation

[opal gorge]

I think a lot of people need to chill out and realize its only game

[hidden sand]

We've seen edited, scripted gameplay that is not a proper reflection of what to expect. I'm talking about raw, unedited gameplay. Not little segments with a lot of cuts inbetween. We have not gotten that yet, no.

[topaz hazel]

The theme doesn’t stand on cinematography lol

[opal gorge]

🖐️ 🌿

[arctic grove]

And we probably won't

[opal gorge]

we've never gotten that

[arctic grove]

until beta

[dense torrent]

the theme is pretty good to me. fits the era, I wish the part that goes "doooooooo do duuuuuu doooooo dooo" was a little more high pitch though.

[opal gorge]

bf4 reveal was scripted af

[hidden sand]

Which is why peoples concerns are perfectly valid.

[arctic grove]

It comes across as snarky and obnoxious and can be perceived as the company telling you at least some of it's fanbase to go fuck itself.

[arctic grove]

true

[opal gorge]

im telling you that, not the devs

gamers also like to live in the past

[sullen inlet]

Dice can make good trailers, but can they make good games? Find out on the 15th October. Preorder now, be entitled to early information and give your opinion to leaked soundtracks.

[arctic grove]

It's not just that, it's also the responsibility that comes with being a multibillion dollar company

[proud scarab]

They’re considered “classic” due to the times. :/ There may be a whole auditorium of people who like Für Elise but that one person that doesn’t view it as good, or even a whole auditorium that doesn’t view it as good. So. Perception is a thing, and it changes with the times.

[hidden sand]

^

[proud scarab]

I feel as though you didn’t even consider what was said here :/

[opal gorge]

their responsibility is to make the shareholders money lmaoo

[arctic grove]

true lol

[arctic grove]

Yes and the things you say, as a multibillion dollar company, affect share prices

[proud scarab]

Alright. I’m tapping out. Where’s my popcorn? 😂

[dense torrent]

Theres gonna be a day where the 2042 theme will be so nostalgic lol

[hidden sand]

...which is then tied to pleasing consumers? Shareholders get money via customers.

[opal gorge]

gamers dont own stock in the game companies they buy from

[opal gorge]

you need a modern econ lesson

shareholders get money from percieved value

[proud scarab]

Shareholders get money from va-

Ok he beat me to it :/

[arctic grove]

You can literally make the shittiest game ever and still make tons of money, especially with marketing

[proud scarab]

^

[arctic grove]

Shareholders will react to negativity directed at the consumer of the product they hold shares in.

[opal gorge]

and preorders

[proud scarab]

War Thunder cough

[opal gorge]

cant complain about gaming business practices if you're preordering the games

[hidden sand]

Yeah I'm not gonna lie I don't know shit about econ, not my place to speak, too quick of me to reply there

[topaz hazel]

Bf4 theme goes well in both “cinematography” and in general listening, so do all battlefield themes. You’re saying that this will go well with the 2042 cinematography, what about just normal listening lol

[arctic grove]

That is called an appeal to hypocrisy.

[opal gorge]

how did ea shares do in late 2018?

[arctic grove]

The only reason they are trying to appeal to their fans now is because BFV was a colossal economic failure

[proud scarab]

The music isn’t made for just “regular listening” :/ Again, I refer you to the Apocalypse DLC soundtrack in BF 1.

[sullen inlet]

Why did EA stop the support on BFV

[proud scarab]

It’s made as an AMBIENCE PIECE

[sullen inlet]

Does anyone know

[vernal harness]

because BFV was a failed product

[arctic grove]

Because they didnt make money on it

[dense torrent]

preorders kind of....in my opinion hurt games, because if everyone will preorder, it hurts the quality of the games somewhat to the extent that they already got people buying the game, so no need to make it that good anymore.

[sullen inlet]

Now thats a pity

[vernal harness]

the marketing for BFV was horrendous and nobody wanted to buy a british vs germans early access title

[proud scarab]

BF V is still fun to play till this day lol

[vernal harness]

today, yeah, its fun

[topaz hazel]

An apocalypse dlc and a theme or different, I’m not talking about the entire ost here, I’m talking about the battlefield 2042 theme

[dense torrent]

BFV is okay, not best bf but ok

[arctic grove]

yeah BFV really does play like an indie early access title at times

[topaz hazel]

A game theme shouldn’t be ambience lol

[molten trout]

i dont think that hurts the games

[vernal harness]

the launch visibility was so bad. rim lighting came what, 4 months later? @arctic grove

[arctic grove]

Terribly. They dropped to around 80 bucks per share

[molten trout]

only a certain amount of people buying preoeders vs the general public

[proud scarab]

Yet the same theme is used in Ambience :/ BF 1 did it, BF V did it, BF 4 did it :/

[vernal harness]

it was not a finished game, nor is it finished now

[molten trout]

it doesnt have an impact on the quality at all

[opal gorge]

then quickly recovered

hardly "terrible"

[arctic grove]

lol yeah, and then they ruined the ttk for no reason and just said "fuck it"

[proud scarab]

Yeah the TTK thing was a horrendous move

[vernal harness]

twice

[dense torrent]

I mean quality wise but then again Im not a financial analyst or an expert on how preorders actually work, just a inference

[proud scarab]

We can all agree on that.

[hidden sand]

I just want my damn offline bots and bf3 classes man

[opal gorge]

dont forget their stock jumped tremendously before the game released

[topaz hazel]

Bruh what, did you just say bf4, bf1, and BfV main themes are ambience

[opal gorge]

and EA makes hundreds of games

[arctic grove]

A near 50% decrease isn't terrible?

I'm going to pre order my big mac to arrive 4 months from now

[opal gorge]

40%, bad math

[proud scarab]

That cheese gonna be moldy.

[hidden sand]

I just want a good bf game

[sullen violet]

Guys let's not spam reactions

[arctic grove]

I said near. Not giving exact numbers

Klikard hates big macs

[proud scarab]

Just excited for the game to release so people stop being weird :/

[arctic grove]

gross

[sullen violet]

Oh i love them, it's you guys spamming all these reactions

[dense torrent]

with portal, I think that Dice really nailed the concept of portal because if theres balancing issues in base game, we could use portal to balance things out and Dice may like get player feedback on their ideas then incorporate the balancing onto the base game.

[arctic grove]

but they spelled out bigmac

[vernal harness]

those people will continue to be weird until the heat death of the universe

[proud scarab]

Whoppers are better

[dense torrent]

I like both B)

[hidden sand]

There's always going to be conflicting opinions, positive, negative, harsh, praise
That's just part of it

[arctic grove]

Yeah I know for a fact I'm most likely not going to play the main game unless portals just gets abandoned

[mellow hazel]

Beta When Beta ?

[proud scarab]

I dunno, I feel like I get more food with a whopper

[mellow hazel]

Beta when beta

[arctic grove]

40% drop in share prices to a multibillion dollar company is terrible. No one was saying they'd disappear off the market. But the fact is, they lost money due to their poor treatment of consumers

[mellow hazel]

when beta when

[vernal harness]

22nd

most likely

[arctic grove]

Anyways I'm leaving this alone it's beating a dead horse

[proud scarab]

Right but at least with the game launched a majority of the speculation, accusations and just plain dumb or silly remarks go out the window

[sullen inlet]

Will we get trailers for all operators before release?

Bets

[dense torrent]

Im hoping portal will be alive for a long time. like very very long time lol

[arctic grove]

Yeah it was the first time people genuinely were thinking EA would go down in flames and file bankruptcy, which is obviously a major exaggeration, but still

[molten trout]

hopefully

[hidden sand]

ThAT TrEE DoEsnT HAve EnOugh pIXeLs foR Me

[molten trout]

portal sounds so promising

[arctic grove]

Lmao that's not gonna happen

What is EA's market cap?

[sullen inlet]

Like 3.50

[proud scarab]

Oh ho hoooooo

The pain! XD

[sullen inlet]

Three fifty

[proud scarab]

Excuse me. Why is you inside a skull?

[arctic grove]

"Man the game looks kinda bad in this technical preview leaked 30 fps low settings 240p chinese gameplay I watched"

[sullen inlet]

XDDDD

[arctic grove]

Hey what did you guys think of the ps showcase?

[proud scarab]

RIGHT! LIKE COME ON! ITS A BLOODY ALPHA BUILD! WE HAVE GOOGLE FOR GODS SAKES! XD

[dense torrent]

in portal, I'll just create standard conquest, all maps, no specialists, bf3 classes, all weapons, bf3 vehicles.

[arctic grove]

It's not even alpha lmao

its pre alpha

[opal gorge]

huh, the 2018 stock dive was presumably caused by dropping Madden revenue following a strong year, FIFA revenue concerns, and the delay of bfV, not the ultimate release of it. Likewise, there was a general dip in gaming stocks in particular, and EA still ended 2018 with higher adjusted earnings per share than the year prior

[proud scarab]

Just search up what a alpha build or technical play test is

[vernal harness]

"I watched a video on twitter and man this game just looks bad visually"

[hidden sand]

The only complaints I've had towards graphics have been the vaulting and gun bob animations, they're so stiff and weightless. It's been this way in everything they've shown including the play test so its likely its not gonna change. It's a bit disappointing but not a deal breaker.

[arctic grove]

Sup

[formal verge]

Sup

[arctic grove]

Dode wassssp

Holy shit man. I'm sorry to hear that. I have been doing giveaways but I won't be doing anymore for a little while

[proud scarab]

It’s like revving your engine without even putting gas in the damn car 🤦‍♂️

[arctic grove]

I have seen everything ranging from "this game is cartoony" to "this game runs horribly"

[opal gorge]

I've even seen horse shit such as "this game isn't out"

[proud scarab]

I’m sorry what? Cartoony?

[vernal harness]

there's no blue/grey filter. CARTOONS

[arctic grove]

BRB

[arctic grove]

I mean there is a filter, it's kinda like bf4 except a little less harsh

[modest verge]

[opal gorge]

"EA has an upcoming release called Anthem in the fiscal fourth quarter -- one of the most anticipated games of the year. "
oof

[arctic grove]

they also brought back the epic lens flare

[vernal harness]

It's incredibly clear in the hd teaser though, looks good @arctic grove

colors look good

[hidden sand]

BF3 currently has better gun bob and vaulting animations which is surprising but ah well.

[sullen inlet]

Anthem was great

[dense torrent]

yall remember the bf3 filter with the amazing blue tint, I know some people dont like it but I like it lol

[arctic grove]

Yeah bro, clearly 2042 looks like a cartoon

[sullen inlet]

Sad they neglected it

Potential

No doubt

[proud scarab]

People scare me ;-;

[arctic grove]

Yeah

Alright food time enjoy your days

I think BFV's biggest graphical pitfalls was the lighting and the horrid over coloration of everything

and the bad TAA

[hidden sand]

When I see people say "cartoony" I'm convinced they just dont know how to explain what they're feeling.

It's extremely saturated, which is where I think these complaints are coming from.

[echo yew]

people say cartoony because BF2042 has bright colors

[hidden sand]

Because it does not look cartoony lmfao

[echo yew]

bad opinion by the way

[opal gorge]

i reallly hope i can turn AA off for 2042

[vernal harness]

war doesnt happen in the sun

[proud scarab]

Even then, over saturated or not, it’s an insult to call it cartoony like it’s fortnite ;-;

[vernal harness]

dont u know

[echo yew]

i fucking hate how grey and smog-ish MW looks

[proud scarab]

^

[sullen inlet]

Go and watch some hentai and stop calling BF2042 carrtoonish

[echo yew]

i love how colorful kaleidoscope and orbital look

[outer sequoia]

Who called it cartoonish

[arctic grove]

It's definitely not as saturated as BFV, its main colors appear more like BF4's, where it highlights dark reds and blues more vibrantly

[dense torrent]

bf2042 doesnt look cartoony, I guess its because of the varied colors tone but not a cartoon.

its kinda like

[hidden sand]

BF1 had the best color palette imo. I'm really hoping for it to return in this game when you apply different weather to maps.

[dense torrent]

BF4 mixed with bf1

[echo yew]

also 2042 graphics aren't bad in any of the teasers lol

[dense torrent]

like the bright greens

whites

browns

[sullen inlet]

BF4 was very grey

[echo yew]

it's colorful and bright which is a good thing

good visibility

[glad mulch]

And clean

[haughty cipher]

Its not cartoony,

[echo yew]

games that are just grey and brown with smog and have poor visibility are bad

by design

COUGH

warzone

Modern warfare

[hidden sand]

People can also want it though.

[vernal harness]

maybe they want to save it? there could always be a sequel to bf1 @hidden sand

[arctic grove]

castle enter the chat

[echo yew]

im also sure there will be dark maps

[hidden sand]

I really prefer the BF1 color palette, bit disappointed they're sticking with the BFV-esque style this time.

[echo yew]

Manifest, Discarded

[hidden sand]

But, weather will make it similar enough.

[echo yew]

Hourglass

wait no

[dense torrent]

I like the bf4 colors + a taste of bf1 colors

[echo yew]

hourglass is synthwave as fuck

[haughty cipher]

Orbital when storms coming

[arctic grove]

Yeah that's kinda what 2042 looks like

[echo yew]

anyway the graphics look good

[arctic grove]

Battlefield 2042 has my barricade to trap you in a room then levelution the building 😎

[echo yew]

what bothers me are some gun animations

[haughty cipher]

You not like doha ? Haha

[arctic grove]

Running around Doha should be fun, I have a friend who lives there be kinda funny to visit where she works in game lmao

[arctic grove]

Gun has recoil lol

[echo yew]

no no im honestly hyped for hourglass the most

[arctic grove]

Well the ones in the tech test were unfinished, the glock one especially, it didn't even have a mag and the reload itself was copied over from BF1

[echo yew]

reloads

[hidden sand]

Yeah. Imo, the gun bob looks horrible in everything they've showcased. Extremely stiff and lifeless. This probably wont change either, it's been this way in every build they've showcased including the playtest.

[dense torrent]

Hourglass gonna be so cool since I live near the place its based on. cant wait to shoot tank bullets on my local supermarket lmao

[echo yew]

pistol was a little rough

[arctic grove]

I hope Taliban can be an op

[haughty cipher]

My country

[echo yew]

manifest is gonna be neat for CQB i think

[haughty cipher]

Yep

[echo yew]

also

if there are no delays

[dense torrent]

hourglass is already my favorite bf2042 map and I havent even played the game XD

[echo yew]

2042 comes out same day as new starset album, so im gonna jam that while sniping on orbital

[haughty cipher]

Its not

[arctic grove]

If there were delays I wouldn't worry

Imagine no pats has ex Afghanistan spec op it be accurate

Polish is always a good thing

[echo yew]

Hourglass and Breakaway are the maps im mostly hyped about

Manifest and Orbital are next

[arctic grove]

Never seen it

[echo yew]

Discarded is ok

[arctic grove]

They might not do that with the possibility of offending people, but that would be sweet. Like a grizzled ex afghan vet?

[dense torrent]

Im also hyped for the remastered caspian border

[echo yew]

idk about Kaleidoscope yet

[turbid beacon]

[echo yew]

haven't seen anything about Renewal so uh

can't really be excited for that one

[haughty cipher]

Arica harbor 😋

[turbid beacon]

Can’t wait to not to play COD

[turbid rapids]

i'm excited for the beta

[sullen inlet]

Been to doha yesterday because of my flight

[hidden sand]

Seriously
Battle of the bulge lets fucking gooo

[sullen inlet]

:)

[echo yew]

same

unless vanguard is somehow fun

but i want to get rid of MW

[haughty cipher]

Call of kids

[arctic grove]

Lucky. Looks like a beautiful place. I've read it's one of the safest in the world too in terms of crime.

[arctic grove]

Well....that true but it be accurate I know if IDF soldier or Palestine in no pats it be interesting

[turbid beacon]

More like call of do doo

[turbid rapids]

screaming kids

[echo yew]

call of sbmm

[arctic grove]

Could be Iran op

[echo yew]

i'd love if we got a chernobyl map in some of the seasons

[arctic grove]

If only political correctness wasn't a thing

[arctic grove]

You die rapidly lol

[hidden sand]

I really wonder if offline play is gonna be ran locally or in private servers

[echo yew]

well apparently there is radiation damage in 2042 so...

[arctic grove]

Ha unless it money involved all that get thrown out

[hidden sand]

I hope locally, that way they can never take away access to it

[arctic grove]

I hope 2042 features some of the amazing particle effects from SWBF2, the physical leaves that swirled around realistically were beautiful

beta is not coming

😄

What did you think to the ps showcase?

Kotor remastered should be sweet

[scarlet cloak]

New spiderman so I'm already happy

[arctic grove]

It's a remake, but yes

it will be great

[arctic grove]

In year 20,042 then maybe we have Chernobyl map

[arctic grove]

My bad

[hidden sand]

The explosions look so much like BF1 again, they look so fucking good
I'm glad they're going back to BF1s style of explosions

[arctic grove]

It's fine, It's just a pet peeve of mine when people get it confused

[arctic grove]

Bf5 had good explosion

[arctic grove]

facts

BF1 had way cooler explosives

[hidden sand]

Though I hope we get a flamethrower again, the BFV flamethrow was so fkn fun to use

It looked so good too

Best looking flamethrow in a game to date

[arctic grove]

idk they kinda stopped using those after the 1960s because "wAr CrImEs BaD"

[hidden sand]

I'm talking in the WW2 content

[feral cargo]

Any newwwwwwwws?

[arctic grove]

Nuke should be banned

[arctic grove]

Oh yeah idk

there might be one in 1942

probably is

[hidden sand]

But still

[arctic grove]

NO BETA

NOO
bETA

[hidden sand]

Its a game, who cares if they use a flamethrower in 2042

[arctic grove]

NO BETA BRO

[hidden sand]

The more options the better

It dont gotta make sense

[arctic grove]

i dont get it why no beta!

its so annoying

[haughty cipher]

Gimme beta

[fresh pilot]

HELP I ACCIDENTALLY PURCHASED DISCORD NITRO MY PARENTS ARE GONNA BEAT ME UP

[arctic grove]

@haughty cipherbeta is cancelled

[feral cargo]

Beta beta etanetanehzjebcown

[arctic grove]

nope

[arctic grove]

Flamethrower useless all you gotta do shoot the tank

nobody said it 😄

yes

how did u know

[feral cargo]

Say it 3 times in the mirror

[arctic grove]

Do any of you hope they have kits like they did in bf1?

[hidden sand]

Wtf who uses it against tanks lmao

It does damage but that is not a good tatic

[arctic grove]

Gg you gotta make call to the bank or discord lol

i think game is gonna be good but hopefully in good state

[haughty cipher]

Lol who said

[arctic grove]

I loved the tank fucker

and not freaking bad

[fresh pilot]

yes

[arctic grove]

Gas tank on flamethrower

[hidden sand]

Oh I misread your text, sorry lmao

[arctic grove]

Lol

[arctic grove]

Lol

Mate this chat is chilled today.

Usually there's people arguing over beta dates

[feral cargo]

I’m a beta male

[hidden sand]

Quick guys I know the beta date its-

[arctic grove]

Oh -

[arctic grove]

Tbh I'm playing hitman 2 and other games beta will arrive in week or 2

We in week 2 of September lol

[hidden sand]

I'm re-reading JoJos bizarre adventure

[arctic grove]

Usyk Vs Joshua is around that time too. So I have a choice of usyk and Josh or sweating battlefield

[arctic grove]

flamethrower tanks

[feral cargo]

Beta announcement in week 6 of September

[hidden sand]

We need those back k thx DICE

Fkn loved using the Sherman tank and lighting everything up with the flamethrower

[arctic grove]

Marvel's wolverine got me hyped

[hidden sand]

Honestly more fun than using the canon

[arctic grove]

It better be rated m

[arctic grove]

[proud scarab]

Lol

[arctic grove]

I just want a kotor 1 and 2 remake, then a kotor 3

pls

I run when I see it

[hidden sand]

Ah that reminds me, it would be great if we got the tech trees we had in BFV

That system I mean

[proud scarab]

Sherman with flamethrower? Ha! Tiger with HEAT or Chi-ha with 76mm says “hello” xD

[arctic grove]

I started with Kotor 2

I love the depth in those games. Should be ace to see everything updated

Revan with 4k ray tracing

[hidden sand]

BFVs way of doing vehicles was perfect imo

[proud scarab]

Agreed

[tender dove]

yes

[hidden sand]

Unlocking and editing them I mean

[azure lodge]

Battlefield 2042 | Release
Releases <t:1634896800:R>

[hidden sand]

Man I hope its in this one

Would make this game already really good for me

[arctic grove]

I agree with you there atleast it wasn't op having infinity ammo

[arctic grove]

it made all vehicles terrible

and made camping more prevalent

so no

[hidden sand]

Damn rip

[hidden sand]

I'm not talking about gameplay

[arctic grove]

plus the upgrade paths for vehicles made them even worse

[topaz hazel]

Most people don’t like the way they did vehicles in BfV

[arctic grove]

luckily 2042 doesn't have attrition and vehicles have unlimited ammo

[jovial elbow]

Yeah but the repairing from outside isnt worth it, should doubled the score that u get from it

[long plinth]

So wooooo

[arctic grove]

I like how they did it imo if I need to reload drive to the base

Usually you get compromise

[pseudo nebula]

and im a beta tester

[topaz hazel]

Yeah that was a terrible idea

[vernal harness]

too many players just tether themselves to the supply box and never push with their tank

[arctic grove]

all it did was make camping the only viable strat

[hidden sand]

The tech tree system in BFV was perfect, there, re-worded it

[topaz hazel]

Ye

[hidden sand]

Because thats what I mean

[arctic grove]

Hey motes did you get the artbook from the ult giveaway yet?

[arctic grove]

no, that shit was terrible

the tree system ruined vehicles for new players

Or is that given at launch?

and it made no sense

[arctic grove]

Exactly that's why I like bf5 vehicles mechanics it made you play and support your team

[topaz hazel]

I’m not sure if it’s given before launch, where do I check?

[ornate veldt]

Hungry

[vernal harness]

i think the vehicle leveling was very poorly thought out in 5. for planes especially

[arctic grove]

No beta hahahha

I gave it to you on steam. Was it not in the email?

What a sh1t devs

Lmao

Ay does anyone here know how pre order bonuses work on steam?

[tribal wyvern]

aight am back

[ornate veldt]

Lemon

[topaz hazel]

Yeah I have it on steam but I didn’t get any art book yet

[tribal wyvern]

it's coming in like 12 days jeez itay be patient

[hidden sand]

I'm starting to think I just like the diversity of tanks and them having more roles in BFV rather than the contents of the tech tree system itself.

I.e., light tanks, heavy tanks, medium tanks, etc.

[ornate veldt]

[scarlet cloak]

I think you get the pre order bonus on release

[arctic grove]

@tribal wyvern nooo

[scarlet cloak]

Not sure

[tribal wyvern]

had a big ass pasta dinner

[arctic grove]

Its not coming

Ok

[tribal wyvern]

ate some steak too

and a nice fruit cheesecake

noice

[arctic grove]

What type of steak?

[ornate veldt]

Nice Ryuko pfp

[tribal wyvern]

it is

[tribal wyvern]

cuberoll

[vernal harness]

so you like tanks that dont push? when my ally tankers dont go in my team always loses. same with having too many snipers, you just dont win

[scarlet cloak]

Someone with taste huh

[tribal wyvern]

never heard of it but BOY THAT'S A JUICY ASS STEAK

[arctic grove]

Nah

Ah never had that one

[scarlet cloak]

[tribal wyvern]

Yah

[ornate veldt]

[arctic grove]

I usually have sirloin or a nice ribeye

[tribal wyvern]

pasta and steak

[sullen inlet]

Dont start talking about food

Im hungry af

[hidden sand]

Unlocking tanks in BFV was also just really satisfying imo.

[ornate veldt]

Pasta goes amazing with steak

[tribal wyvern]

eat then

[arctic grove]

True I heard vehicles selection will be diverse

[hidden sand]

Rn its looking like a single tank for each side.

[sullen inlet]

Not at home atm

Ill eat later

[arctic grove]

Why they aren't saying dates then?

[tribal wyvern]

cuz it's still too early

[sullen inlet]

I want some juicy steak myself

[tribal wyvern]

if you can wait 4-5 days, you'll get your announcement

[arctic grove]

Too early u trippin bruh game is month away

[hidden sand]

Yooo lets go

[tribal wyvern]

and beta is 12 days away, so what

what's it matter, beta's still coming

[arctic grove]

@tribal wyvern so its very bad

[tribal wyvern]

4-5 days of waiting time is nothing if you waited since june

[arctic grove]

Well I seen variety in tanks on few of the leaks selection looks like huge blank box so I hope diverse is there

[tribal wyvern]

how can you know if it's not out yet

[hidden sand]

I hope they end up porting all of the tanks from BFV that they can

[arctic grove]

Not the game the fact that no dates is very bad

[tribal wyvern]

it's not bf3 was way worse

[hidden sand]

Man holy fuck the potentional of Portal is unreal

[tribal wyvern]

you'll get your dates a week before beta starts bro

[true wasp]

bf 2042 among us gamemode

[arctic grove]

does your phone have i7 and 3070 to play bf2042

[arctic grove]

I play tank support on bf4 and bf5 I always push away from objective I do multiple task attack and defend then battle with other tanks

[arctic grove]

Thats how they always do it? A Week before?

on recommended specs

Yep it's like bf4 but 2x better

[tribal wyvern]

that's how they did it with bf3 and it's the game that's sharing the most similarities in marketing with 2042

[hidden sand]

I wonder if they've added things to this newer frostbite with porting content in mind to make the process a lot easier

[arctic grove]

isnt bf2042 like 50gb?

I call it K/D farmers lol

[scarlet cloak]

Probably more than that

[hidden sand]

Because damn it would be amazing to get Iwo Jima, all of the tanks, and custimization from BFV

[arctic grove]

i know its gonna go up like 100gb in future lol

swag

[hidden sand]

We'd essentially have two games in one

[scarlet cloak]

I'd say around 80gb probably

[arctic grove]

It's probably going to be 120 on launch

considering BFV was 98

[scarlet cloak]

That had a campaign aswell tho

So hmm

[arctic grove]

yeah true

[arctic grove]

Depends on console tbh

[tribal wyvern]

90

[vernal harness]

maybe you will be able to select to install portal / hazard zone separately

[tribal wyvern]

91 to be exact

[arctic grove]

Okay and 2042 has portals, hazard zone, and the main game

no way its gonna be more than warzone

[tribal wyvern]

you can see it on the xbox store

[scarlet cloak]

Ah fair

xd

[arctic grove]

Okay I don't trust you

i dont have xbox pc only

[true wasp]

console and pc have different sizes xd

[tribal wyvern]

bruh you can fucking see for yourself

[arctic grove]

Battlefield on my ps4 is 100+ gb and on my Xbox one is 90 gb

[true wasp]

ironic how your name is patient lemon

patient my ass

[glass shadow]

LOL

[arctic grove]

a lot of the times the store pages aren't accurate regarding that stuff, especially when the game is not finished

[glass shadow]

Yea they generally change at release

[tribal wyvern]

if you think the people saying beta i delayed or game is delayed or beta isn't coming or when's beta constantly are mroe patient than me you don't know what patience is

[arctic grove]

i know PS always have more GB than xbox in games

but i dont own consoles

[hidden sand]

For context, it says "Around 91 gbs"
So its subject to change

[tribal wyvern]

it was updated from 50 to 90 like 1-2 weeks ago

[arctic grove]

which proves my point

[glass shadow]

And it'll probably be updated again

[arctic grove]

lol

[arctic grove]

PlayStation imo better

[glass shadow]

🤨

[arctic grove]

yeah i thought it was 50gb not long ago

I got both console lol

i was thinking of ps5 for bf2042 aswell so i can relax on sofa on 4k cross save aswell

Me to

[true wasp]

one of yall better make an among us mode

[arctic grove]

i wasnt expecting that though for cross save progression

I got old TV a 1080p 60hz

[sullen inlet]

SUS

[hidden sand]

Imagine
All the Tanks and most weapons from BFV
Iwo Jima
Plus all of the 2042, BF3 and BC2 content they've shown

[true wasp]

sussy

[scarlet cloak]

I don't see how among us would work in 2042

[tribal wyvern]

lmao that hustle westbrook dude said ntohing after saying i'm not patient

[true wasp]

like double agent in cw

[arctic grove]

anyone thinks anyone can make BR in portal?

or its impossible

[tribal wyvern]

you can't, devs confirmed it back in july

[scarlet cloak]

It's impossible

[hidden sand]

The lucky thing about BFV content is that It's porting rather than remaking

[arctic grove]

oh

[scarlet cloak]

Dice don't want to do BR

At all

[arctic grove]

yeah im glad BR aint in it

[glass shadow]

I just wanna make a cars only mode, but I doubt you can make it so people are stuck in cars 😔

[tribal wyvern]

and i'm glad you can't make it in portal either

otherwise it'd be flooded with br servers

just wouldn't be fun

[arctic grove]

was gonna say if they can make BR surely they can make amoung us in portal lol

i just hate BR

[hidden sand]

There'll be Tank v Tank modes able to be made

[glass shadow]

Thats nice at least :)

[pulsar junco]

battlefield warthunder edition

[scarlet cloak]

EOD bot vs tank

Absolute fun

[glass shadow]

If they added bf vietnam stuff you could do flamethrowers >:))

Dude they need to add a game with flamethrowers

[pulsar junco]

dude they need mg42's

[hidden sand]

WW2

[arctic grove]

im sure next BF game is gonna be veitnam

[pulsar junco]

im sure it wont

[tribal wyvern]

wtf happened did no way home have a big leak

[hidden sand]

Its just a matter of people requesting the flamethrower enough

[pulsar junco]

they arent doing anymore battlefields pre 2000

[tribal wyvern]

suddenly i'm getting full on set photos and one of them is a straight scene from the movie

looks like tobey and andrew are really in it

[arctic grove]

they comfirmed that?

[deep isle]

@sterile hare did you get a DMCA strike for uploading theme music?

[arctic grove]

yeah idk @arctic grove

bf1 flamethrower was mad

in forest map

[tribal wyvern]

he did

no need to ping him

[deep isle]

Okay

I missed that convo

Just wondering if they are still striking music for the game. Since it's now released.

[limpid tree]

Yo, peeps who've listened to the main bf2042 song.
What y'all think?

I think it's pretty good

[deep isle]

I love it.

[glass shadow]

I like it, a bit agressive but I think it fits kinda nice

[limpid tree]

At first I thought there wasn't enough drop, but turned out I didn't even listen to the whole thing and the drop is absolutely dope

[sullen inlet]

I chrxk it out when the game drops

[deep isle]

You can already hear this battlefield will hit different

and i like it

[limpid tree]

But it kind of makes me feel like razor blades

Not sure why

[sullen inlet]

October 15th

Soon

[arctic grove]

where is the marketing

look at vanguard marketing

we have no marketing for 2042

[sullen inlet]

Not true

[arctic grove]

lol

find me 5 minutes of unedited gameplay for 2042

right now

you can't

[sullen inlet]

Dont need to

[arctic grove]

but there is hours and hours of vangaurd gameplay

[tribal wyvern]

according to several polls and like\dislike ratio, majority like it

[arctic grove]

and a beta this weekend

another one next weekend

[tribal wyvern]

however there is several negative reviews on it mainly cuz they don't think it's good music to listen to because it's not really a melody

[arctic grove]

and another one next weekend

[tribal wyvern]

and tbh, i don't think it's even meant to be, you'll hear in the background as you play and it's meant to be more atmospheric

which it nails perfectly

[sullen inlet]

Btw 5 min of unedited gameplay has nothing to do with marketing

[arctic grove]

i loved it and the whole soundtrack , i dont get the hate

[sullen inlet]

Beta is coming

[tribal wyvern]

in fact if you ask people who disliked it half the time they'll say it fits the setting just not as music

[sullen inlet]

You gotta wait

[tribal wyvern]

neither do i, it sounds great

[arctic grove]

i dont want to wait

[tribal wyvern]

majority still loves it btw

[arctic grove]

ive waited enough

[arctic grove]

its so good

[sullen inlet]

Lmao this guy

[timber mulch]

i want the beta now

[scarlet cloak]

Dice do know people want the beta lol

Even made a meme about it

[tribal wyvern]

who

[arctic grove]

on their twitter

[tribal wyvern]

sorry i think i got my hide blocked messages code on, who are you referring to

[arctic grove]

i dont want the beta, i want 10 minutes of unedited gameplay

a hazard trailer

thats it

[scarlet cloak]

You'll get your 10 minutes

In the beta

:)

[arctic grove]

i can wait if we have this

man im sad michael K died few days ago

[glass shadow]

10 MINUTES UNTIL BETA?!?!

[arctic grove]

read the room bro @arctic grove

[scarlet cloak]

Lmao no

[glass shadow]

LETS GO

[scarlet cloak]

I wish xd

[arctic grove]

oh oops sorry

[glass shadow]

GUYS 10 MINUTES UNTIL BETA

[arctic grove]

ew

[glass shadow]

LETS GOO

[sullen inlet]

Wtf

Wrong copy pasta

[arctic grove]

vangaurd will sell more

because it had better marketing

more agressive marketing

people already forgot about 2042

[scarlet cloak]

Better marketing doesn't mean showing us a lot of thnings you know

I like the secrecy

[sullen inlet]

Cod will sell more because the playerbase is younger

[scarlet cloak]

More surprises when the beta drops

[feral cargo]

I’m secretly beta

[arctic grove]

-cyberpunk 2077 showed a lot and sold a lot

[sullen inlet]

Bf will bring alot of vets back

[scarlet cloak]

I feel cyberpunk got overhyped though tbf

[limpid tree]

Oh the song is deffo not meant to be a lofi hiphop to study to

[arctic grove]

10 millions at launch i think

[limpid tree]

It's a short-ish piece that really gets the adrenaline pumping

gets the headshots

[arctic grove]

they had excellent marketing, even if the game sucked

[limpid tree]

gets the c5's on tanks

[arctic grove]

i love the 2042 soundtrack reminds me of yeezus from kanye west

i completed cb2077 in 38 hours

ahahaha

game sucked

[sullen inlet]

I bet BF will sell more this year tho, more people like a new future scenario than the xth game of WW2

🥱

[tribal wyvern]

i love the ost cuz it fits the setting perfectly and main theme is EXACTLY how i expected it

[arctic grove]

yep

[tribal wyvern]

and i got 0 criticism for the rest of the game, it's just meeting my expectations perfectly

[arctic grove]

on hardest difficulty it was easy too

i hope the game is depressing

and dark

[tribal wyvern]

i think the issue is people got too high of expectations

[arctic grove]

best thing about CB was judy though

[arctic grove]

no people were just expecting an actual OST

instead of schizo nokia ambiance

[tribal wyvern]

buddy i don't think that cheery upbeat music would fit 2042's theme

[arctic grove]

I never said I wanted cheery upbeat music

I just wanted music

[tribal wyvern]

how is this not music

if it wasn't music the composer wouldn't have won multiple awards, ahve not been hired for 2042, and ost wouldn't have even passed

[arctic grove]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_QtmIGPScpY

[sullen inlet]

Vector fire is music to my ears

😎

[arctic grove]

everything aside from the theme isn't even music

and the theme itself is just mostly bf1's but distorted

to the point where my ears hurt

[tribal wyvern]

literally every bf theme is 1942's just different

[arctic grove]

well yeah but this rendition is bad imo

[limpid tree]

I can't directly agree to that. I think the music in the way it's meant to be used is similar in how games such as Hotline Miami used their OST. (which is amazing btw)
It's not directly maybe listenable to, but it's literally only meant to be used when playing the game. When you get those gory shots and when you bang the mafia guys head against a wall and it explodes. That's when you want the music to be there

[tame cobalt]

lemon

[tribal wyvern]

depends on how ya look at it

[tribal wyvern]

yeah, it's literally meant to be used in game

literally the entire ost is loading screens and ambient sounds

[wary spoke]

I actually like the theme

[tribal wyvern]

you can hear the ost that's been released in the tech test when objectives were capped

[arctic grove]

bruh I listen to the hotline miami ost all the time

[limpid tree]

I think a lot of the people who disliked it, expected it to be songs that can be listened to separately. Stuff like GTA's radio songs...

[tribal wyvern]

if you look at it from a music standpoint like that you just LISTEN to, it's obviously gonna sound bad

but when you're playing the game and it's background music it fits perfectly, it fits the setting tremendously well

[arctic grove]

how would you know

you haven't played the game

[tame cobalt]

deez nuts

[tribal wyvern]

iv'e seen all the tech test gamepaly and had a friend who played it aswell

[limpid tree]

I just listened to Irreversible again

[tribal wyvern]

the sounds fit a lot more than you'd think

[limpid tree]

It would fit so well in a dark-ish building as you're clearing it with yours squaaaaaaaaad

[tribal wyvern]

also i kind of space out when listening to every bf theme

i always think about a scenario that takes place in the setting the bf theme i'm listening to iss meant to portray

[tame cobalt]

Love the end of round music for orbital in the tech test

[tribal wyvern]

i think that's why it works so well for me, i'm looking at the setting the entire time

[arctic grove]

okay I don't care, you know for a fact in game people are going to be doing goofy shit all the time

[frigid belfry]

Fellas

And fellarettes

[tame cobalt]

Bogos binted

[tribal wyvern]

so what

[arctic grove]

People always say this but I don't get it

[frigid belfry]

In Portal, you'll be able to make your own campaign missions.

[tribal wyvern]

still fits the setting which is what it's meant to do

[tribal wyvern]

well if you're looking it as as a standalone song it won't work ofc

[arctic grove]

the "music" is just distorted whale noises and random jungle ambiance

it fits nothing

[frigid belfry]

If you can choose the spawn of the enemy, make everyone but like, 3-5 people bots on a smallish map.

Boom.

[arctic grove]

it has no theme or rhythm

[tame cobalt]

Lemon

[limpid tree]

WHAT??? "it fits nothing"?????

[tribal wyvern]

seeing how nature is a big part of 2042 it does fit

[frigid belfry]

DIY campaign, lads.

[limpid tree]

It fits the entire fucking theme of the game

[slim quiver]

When I think of music that I can listen on my own and also fits the theme it’s like Souls series music

[tribal wyvern]

whales dying, jungles, climate change

[arctic grove]

How

[tribal wyvern]

you just gotta look at it from a setting standpoint bro

[foggy crest]

I listen all of them and they all are not good imo

[coral nest]

its futuristic

[limpid tree]

The whole game is meant to be distorted.... Confusing... Glitchy....
Even the name of one of the songs "When does a country stop being a country?" raise a brilliant fucking question

[slim quiver]

BF2042’s setting is all over the world tho lol

[tribal wyvern]

this is exactly how i felt the ost was gonna be

[arctic grove]

It isn't depressing, it isn't sad, it isn't unnerving, it just sounds bad

[limpid tree]

And that question is directly related to the whole setting AND story of bf2042

[tribal wyvern]

yeah they made the right choice hiring hildur for this

she's super skilled in making music that fits the setting

mostly sorrowful and depressing

[tame cobalt]

Floppa

[arctic grove]

Yes the track "Wet Bulb" asks a brilliant question

what happens to wet bulbs

[tribal wyvern]

the names are also symbolic names of the maps they belong to

wall jazz is renewal, makes you feel in suspense, claustrophobic, and renewal's big theme is that there's a huge WALL

[limpid tree]

I think what you expected it to be is something similar to a typical Vietnam shooter game that just blasts Fortunate son or House of The Rising Sun

[slim quiver]

I’ve never seen a sound track talked about so much for a game in my entire life lmao

[tribal wyvern]

yeah.....

i didn't

[coral nest]

some people think the music for the loading screens is bad but it fits perfectly with the maps that they are named after and if you think about the maps while listening you can totally see how that would be used

[tribal wyvern]

i expected setting perfect ost and BOY DID IT MEET MY EXPECTATIONS

[arctic grove]

well it's not like people have anything else to talk about

[tribal wyvern]

see that's the thing

you get it

[glass shadow]

it's not perfect

[tribal wyvern]

you gotta think about the setting

[limpid tree]

That there is a sad fact I can agree to

[tame cobalt]

Wet Bulb refers to raising temperatures

[coral nest]

exactly

[tribal wyvern]

if you don't know tf the context is ofc it'll make 0 sense to you

[slim quiver]

Yeah it just keeps being more apparent. The moment anything new comes out this will die immediately

[tribal wyvern]

hmmmm but what map

kaleidoscope maybe

[foggy crest]

Because nobody here respect anyone's opinion 🤣

[tribal wyvern]

what map has raising temps in 2042

OH

BREAKWAY

[slim quiver]

Yeah but we knew that a long time ago

[tribal wyvern]

like ice is melting and shit

[limpid tree]

The whole world has raising temps? 😄

[tribal wyvern]

i think it's meant for breakaway

seeing how breakaway's context is with ice melting and oil lacking

i actually am loving wall jazz

[tame cobalt]

Might not be map specific, wet bulb is a way of measuring temperature

[tribal wyvern]

i'm gonna use it as the background music for my protal mode trailer actually
