battlefield-2042

[next onyx]

I couldn't hurt a friend so she would most likely win

[valid merlin]

No this is the Krusty Crab

[slim quiver]

Way, hes australian

[next onyx]

The dates aren't official

Keep that in mind

[sullen badge]

I like this

[azure lodge]

No date has been announced.

[slim quiver]

Even if way doesn't want to fight me

his animal companions will

[light flint]

[next onyx]

Haha

[terse kayak]

Anyone wanna go voice with me?

[next onyx]

No

[winged mantle]

animals get treats and pets

[terse kayak]

Then I'll shit alone, brb

[slim quiver]

Every single Australian is born with the choice of an animal companion

[blissful latch]

open beta canceled

[slim quiver]

kind of like pokemon

[scarlet cloak]

Huh doesn't say SEP-TEM-BER anymore

[light flint]

how

[slim quiver]

except way starts off with a timber wolf

[sullen badge]

Where is mine :/

[slim quiver]

yours is an owl

[sullen badge]

I was a mushroom not too long ago

Your logic is flawed

[next onyx]

I'm slowly reverting to my old Attitude with Dice now. With how frustrated i am. They should have just outright told us that they're having some difficulties - It would have softened the blow :/

Oh well

[winged mantle]

I choose buckbeak as my starting animal companion

[slim quiver]

i agree

[next onyx]

Cockatoos are vicious

[sullen badge]

There there way

[slim quiver]

i would have preferred they tell us a lot sooner

[sullen badge]

I feel ya

[next onyx]

Midway into bf5's lifecycle things here were really bad. But at the same time just... Whatever.

[fallen thorn]

Yeah... now it's to late to shift my vacation days...
I wanted to play 24/7 on release >.<

[winged mantle]

Seems like PR isn't understanding where thegame actually is in terms of progress

[sullen badge]

What's that bird that we have that makes a real funny sound

[slim quiver]

the CM said less than a week ago that we would get information on the beta in the next few weeks and next month release

[next onyx]

Kookaburra?

[sullen badge]

COOKABURRA

[light flint]

i hate when games get delayed

[next onyx]

Ultimately if it means a more stable product then sure

[sullen badge]

I have one of those wake me up every morning

[scarlet cloak]

Yea

[slim quiver]

if its a more stable product sure

[scarlet cloak]

Seeing the now speculated beta dates though make me sad

[winged mantle]

those are really cute/cool

[slim quiver]

but 3 weeks is still eh

[scarlet cloak]

Cause I won't be home if they're true

[next onyx]

Bf5 was delayed round the end of august

[valid merlin]

I dont see the point in delaying the beta though.

[light flint]

idk, cyberpunk was delayed alot too

[past shell]

Nothing is more annoying than kookaburras at 5 am

[sullen badge]

It's fine

[light flint]

and the launch was shit

[quartz jay]

And it turned out to be terrible on launch @light flint

[winged mantle]

that's fair lol

[sullen badge]

It's all fine

[next onyx]

Can't really compare it with Cyberpunk when 2042 hasn't been released yet

[light flint]

Guess so...

just fingers cross it would be good

[sullen badge]

We haven't had three delays yet from a single studio based in Poland so

[past shell]

2042 is t on the scale of cyberpunk

[sullen badge]

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[past shell]

Plus cdpr was incompetent

[pearl prairie]

Hope not same replay tape

[quartz jay]

What are the speculated dates??

[next onyx]

October

[light flint]

But to say that im not really a fan of the HUD in the game

[next onyx]

round the start

[winged mantle]

BF3 and 4 also release with tons of bugs, but so has COD games several times including MW19 an Cold War

[scarlet cloak]

6th october early access

[light flint]

it kinda makes me feel sick somehow

[valid merlin]

Is a month really gonna be enough time for them to "fix" the critical issues?

[next onyx]

Bf4 had a horrible launch

[scarlet cloak]

I won't be home

[slim quiver]

october 6th apparently is the early access rumor

[fallen thorn]

They released buggy BFs all the time.
There must be some serious issues if they decide to delay last minute

[static fulcrum]

[quartz jay]

wait early access or beta?

[slim quiver]

so really 2 weeks pushed forward

[valid merlin]

beta not early access

[next onyx]

What i wouldn't mind would be 2 betas on the road to it

[scarlet cloak]

Beta early access I mean

[slim quiver]

early access to the beta

[light flint]

i dont like the turquoise color of it

[quartz jay]

dude I just want my beta

[winged mantle]

A month's time isn't last minute but sure

[light flint]

hope we can change colors of the HUD

[valid merlin]

this beta is gonna be a "trial" basically. Not a beta to test things.

[light flint]

it would make the game more fascinating

[next onyx]

If they give us the second beta on the "release" of the game then we can have an insight on how things could have turned out

[quartz jay]

October 6th for Early Access
October 8th for Open Beta

[next onyx]

Apparently

[quartz jay]

I hate it here

[sullen badge]

My gut feeling has a delay after beta

[slim quiver]

is there going to be a 2nd beta?

[light flint]

was the game gonna release on novermber 16or somethign?

[slim quiver]

i feel like at this point there really should be 2 betas

[winged mantle]

current release is Nov 19th

[quartz jay]

"Sep-Tem-Ber" btw

[light flint]

oh

[slim quiver]

or just extend the beta

just make it like october 6-15th

[valid merlin]

just let us play something, hell Ill take the playtest again even if the cap was 30fps lmao.

[fallen thorn]

they should just let the beta run until release. idc if it's only one map/mode
I just wanna play >.<

[winged mantle]

a 4 week long open beta to gather as much diag data as possible

[slim quiver]

its sad because we were less than 1 month away

[pearl prairie]

Beta in october ?

[light flint]

idk if i should lower my expectations to the game now...

[slim quiver]

i wouldnt

[next onyx]

No but i'm just saying if they gave us a second beta to see what its like then sure

[valid merlin]

Im worried that a month wont be long enough....

[winged mantle]

3 weeks is probably more realistic but 2 week beta is prob what we will get

[slim quiver]

oooh okay yea

[sullen badge]

It'll be 5 day beta max

[slim quiver]

the thing is, when you delay a video game

everyones expectations increase

because now since you've delayed the game they expect that the game will be flawless

because you delayed the game

[next onyx]

I remember when they to delay a patch for bf5 cause of the bug track record they were having

[valid merlin]

which it wont be...

[terse kayak]

Not really, I lose faith in the team.

[broken junco]

because everyone takes that miyamoto quote so seriously

a 1 month delay wont make this game spotless

[slim quiver]

I mean theres no real reason to lose faith in the team, a delay is a delay

[terse kayak]

Doesn't matter, game is after Vanguard now, noones gonna play it 🤷

[slim quiver]

nobody really lost faith in halo delaying the game by 12 months. They wanted it to be a delay

[shadow tangle]

Lol vanguard is going to be trash

[valid merlin]

1 month is like no time at all, they better be 99.99% complete, or I fear another delay.

[winged mantle]

Vanguard is gonna get stale quick

[shadow tangle]

have you seen beta footage?

[next onyx]

Vanguard looks interesting but whatever

[slim quiver]

Im going to play the vanguard beta today or tomorrow

[shadow tangle]

game is jelly when getting shot the simulator

and supression

what is this

BF3>

lol

[next onyx]

You're always getting shot

[next isle]

I have a feeling Vanguard's base game wont draw many people away

[terse kayak]

Nah it's the opposite, every year BF gets stale cause of the bad gunplay and we end up plaing cod

[steep tiger]

I say the delay was inevitable in the current market. Everyone is doing it, wasn't a surprise that Battlefield would follow suit like the rest.

They deem it not enough time, you don't immediately raise expectations but instead lower them

[slim quiver]

yeah vanguard doesnt look bad

[next onyx]

I like the twist of vanguard

[slim quiver]

its going to have a campaign, its going to have a 28 player mode

[next onyx]

Gunsmithify your BAR

[slim quiver]

treyarch zombies

[shadow tangle]

Yeah vanguard is going to have to do alot before release to keep me more interested than BF or halo thb

ill play zombies and grind max camo

[slim quiver]

yeah i think vanguard will actually be more fun to me than black ops

[shadow tangle]

in Vanguard

Cold war had awesome zombies but the engine is horrid man

so bad

[south citrus]

the only redeemable part of cold war were the zombies

[shadow tangle]

feels so sluggish

[slim quiver]

MW19 engine for vanguard

[south citrus]

the mechanics are really nice doe it just makes it too easy im

imo

[shadow tangle]

but ive been really enjoying running around merking noobs in HC Cold war with Dark Aether and DM ultra cause im a nerd

[terse kayak]

I don't see BF2042 being able to compete with Vanguard or Halo, was gonna be my filler up till release, but now after delay, I probably won't play it much

[shadow tangle]

cold war is very under rated imo

sure the game is rushed

but isnt that bad atm

[south citrus]

ikr

[shadow tangle]

especially in HC

zoo kinda sucks tho

[long plinth]

That’s dumb as fuck

[shadow tangle]

camperes galor

[next onyx]

They keep releasing broken guns every season to get people to buy the battle pass.

Fuck that.

[shadow tangle]

but alot of the DLC maps arent bad

[slim quiver]

the only type of customer BF will really lose to vanguard besides the cod fans themselves are the people who were on the fence with which game to buy. Most people just buy the very first title that releases if theyre on the fence

[south citrus]

if it wasnt for the damm sweatlords in multiplayer

[terse kayak]

Cold war was terrible. No wonder you like BF, I see you're a fan of sluggish gameplay

[shadow tangle]

drive in isnt bad

[broken junco]

these games literally appeal to different niches of players

[next onyx]

Battlefield isn't that sluggish, It's very roomy

[shadow tangle]

I just said that Cold war was sluggish lol

[granite lotus]

Treyarch zombies in a WW2 setting? Count me in.

[long plinth]

Y’all crying cuz they took the decision to delay the game which is a good one, instead of giving u a trash game

[shadow tangle]

and thats at 2k 165 FPS too

[slim quiver]

but battlefield doesnt have sluggish gameplay

[shadow tangle]

the engine is slow

[valid merlin]

u only ever need to buy the battlepass once, then u can always unlock the next one if u dont spend more.

[slim quiver]

you're thinking of older battlefield games

BFV is very fast paced

[shadow tangle]

I hated BFV

lol

[next onyx]

My point is they make the guns broken to get everyone to buy it

[slim quiver]

Oh i love bfv

[shadow tangle]

I was saying cold war has a bad engine

[next onyx]

Bf5 was a lot of fun

[slim quiver]

its starting to slowly get closer to being my favorite BF of all time

[shadow tangle]

Zombies in Cold war is amazing

[terse kayak]

I know and still you don't think it's bad, so then I said no wonder you like BF, cause thats sluggish too. Roflmao read..

[next onyx]

Guess i've got more time to finish it off

[long plinth]

Is*

[winged mantle]

Yeah lets just ignore the broken angle mechanics of MW19

[shadow tangle]

and now in Vanguard is zombies on MW Engine

IM GOING TO CREAM

[south citrus]

I just want dice to add a dino mode in bf2042 like world at war did with the zombies

[next onyx]

Well, Was - Is yee

[slim quiver]

BFV has the best movement and gunplay out of any BF game imo

[next onyx]

Imma see if i can get 750 kills for my fg42 today

[slim quiver]

its fast, its fluid and the gameplay just feels right

[long plinth]

Yes

Agreed mf

[devout meadow]

Ha, I knew they gonna fcked the date lul

[south citrus]

and sound design i adore every single sound in that game

[next onyx]

Bf5 is the first bf game i've bothered to hit 2000+ hours on, And i haven't done that since black ops 2

[winged mantle]

BF5 got boring pretty quickly to me

[shadow tangle]

I can get why people dont like Cold war tho and probably the same reasons is why i dont like it, im very much looking forward to BF 2042. The movement feels fine on max FOV and high FPS on 4 and others tbh and 2042 will have better movemnet

[next onyx]

Bits of bf5 can be ironed out but largely it is very fun

[shadow tangle]

2000 hours on BFV

damn

[next onyx]

Even though at times it makes you want to commit a crime

[shadow tangle]

your mental health must be awful after that

[next onyx]

Nah

[slim quiver]

one thing I dont like about call of duty is when I fight against 3 people at once and I kill like 1-2 of them, thats how the streak kinda goes away because depending on the persons weapon you just die like immediately

[winged mantle]

BF4 I have thousands of hours in

[shadow tangle]

Then again i have 1,100 hours in Modern warfare across Warzone and MP so my mental is chalked too

[terse kayak]

I hope so, but when I played BF2042 it was kinda meh.

[slim quiver]

like in BFV I can easily kill 7-8 people in less than 10 seconds

[long plinth]

Maxiq has 4000 hours

[shadow tangle]

Obsidian and Damascus killed my brain cells

[slim quiver]

in cod you cant do it as easily because you die immediately

[devout meadow]

So Beta will never be released this month?

[next onyx]

Not sure

[winged mantle]

R6 siege I have 1657 hour in lol

[shadow tangle]

Oh nice you got into alpha ggs, keep in mind that build was from like January

[slim quiver]

if 2 people focus you, you're dead

[long plinth]

We don’t know

[shadow tangle]

Tom Henderson said October 6th for early and 8th for normal

for beta

[vapid solar]

what are your tips on not having the urge to delete r6?

[winged mantle]

In cod I can go 20+ kills in SnD

[devout meadow]

It's delayed(?)

[terse kayak]

That build was locked at 30 FPS and I usually play 240, so ye. It was always gonna be terrible

[winged mantle]

I haven't play R6 in over a year

[devout meadow]

it was never september, :(

[long plinth]

#game-news

[shadow tangle]

Yeah true, cant wait to see that 200 fps ultra settings at max fov

I fell off R6 after it became too easy on casual and no mates for ranked

[devout meadow]

i just knew about this, very dissapointed, i even marked to take holiday this month

all for nothing

[shadow tangle]

heard PC is a different story tho

Im having to change my work leave lol @devout meadow

[winged mantle]

My ranked squad and I stopped playing a long time ago

[arctic grove]

3ID milsim Xbox platform if u want a challenge and to have a great bunch of guys to sweat with and we are enlisting today dm me for info

[terse kayak]

I usually don't play ultra, even with 5950X/3080Ti. Most important for me is 1440p and 240

[shadow tangle]

Yeah i usually record so GL recording on Ultra at 2k lol

usually medium

[arctic grove]

@devout meadow that sucks dude, sorry to hear that :<

[devout meadow]

at least i got holiday this month, what can i do? Play cod beta?? Nooooooooooooo

[shadow tangle]

lol

[slim quiver]

ye but not as good of a feeling as getting 75 kills in breakthrough as infantry

[arctic grove]

@shadow tangle love your content

[shadow tangle]

ill be playing vanguard beta so you guys dont have to

[slim quiver]

Ill be playing the beta as well

[shadow tangle]

its ok

Max FOV jelly screen supression lets goooooooo

[winged mantle]

or hitting over 140, I got so excited the first time I did that

[slim quiver]

i havent done that as infantry yet

[arctic grove]

All the delay is give me a little more time to wait lol. i will be PLENTY busy with other stuff before-hand lol

[slim quiver]

i dont use vehicles so getting close to 100 is hard

[shadow tangle]

Ayo really appreciate it man! Alot of work goes into it. Thanks 🙂

[arctic grove]

Lords Work 🙏

[shadow tangle]

Did you know my content already or from here you mean?

Curious

[shadow tangle]

Not the hero we need the hero we deserve

[winged mantle]

I play infantry, vehicles, and very antivehicle using Engineer and vehicles

[arctic grove]

@shadow tangle no problem dude subed for alittle while now keep it up and you will grow 🙏🙏🙏

[arctic grove]

Hell yea! Also JUST subbed to you so woo-hoo for everyone i guess lmao

[winged mantle]

When I'm in vehicles I primarily target enemy vehicles over infantry

[shadow tangle]

Ayo man i really appreciate the kind words man, goes a long way. Been a grind recently

[leaden orchid]

Is the beta delayed to October?

[winged mantle]

now if you are trying to jihad jeep me, Ill see you coming in flir/irnv and 3rd person view and you can get the smoke

[shadow tangle]

Ayo thanks man! Appreciate it! Plenty of BF, Cod, halo etc to come

[slim quiver]

I mostly play breakthrough or rush so modes where vehicles are in very small numbers

[shadow tangle]

very sadge rush isnt a main game mode in 2042

[slim quiver]

if vehicles are too strong in 2042, Ill play on no vehicle servers

[shadow tangle]

I feel ya

[winged mantle]

I liked those but Conquest was my primary

[shadow tangle]

I feel BF1 had it right, if you were a good pilot you were a menace

but easy to take down as well

[winged mantle]

I got good at vehicles to be anti vehicle

[arctic grove]

@shadow tangle well it’s shows with all the editing and I can just imagine the amount of time u play to get that content so cool finally to talk to u man just keep it up u will get your break #hardworkpaysoff

[arctic grove]

Yeah! All i've been doing for the past two weeks is grinding Hades after Splitgate got frustrating and Titanfall 2 servers shut down for like the 10,000th time this year lmao, so will def. be sticking around to see more people's takes on said games coming up!

[shadow tangle]

I remember getting a 56 kill streak in a fighter on the fao fortress on frontlines. I got 92 kills that game as well lol

[idle crater]

is the beta being delayed

[shadow tangle]

Yes

[idle crater]

nice

[arctic grove]

maybe? XD

[shadow tangle]

Oh

[idle crater]

varying opinions

[shadow tangle]

i read game

not beta

[idle crater]

oh ok

[shadow tangle]

beta was never announced by EA

so technically

no

[wide shore]

Hard to delay a beta that has no release date

[winged mantle]

I got tired of enemy vehicles dominating so I main engineer and vehicles to take down other vehicles causing problems for our team

[arctic grove]

Beta Delay: Who Knows
Game Delay: Yep. from Oct. 22nd to Nov. 19th

Bro he a ninja fan don’t listen to him it’s not fortnight lol

[modest furnace]

I'm hearing oct 6 for the beta

[winged mantle]

when the enemy team isn't being a menace with vehicles I'll main medic with dmr or something and cap obj's

[leaden orchid]

Honestly, I’ll be patient for the game, it ain’t like it’ll never release, it’s gonna come

[slim quiver]

When you realize vehicles always sit at the top of the scoreboard going 80 and 2 and then the vehicle main says "using vehicles isnt easy, you need to be skilled!"

[scarlet cloak]

Man I wanted to play bf1 operations today

But hacker

[idle crater]

you legitimately need to be skilled doe

[leaden orchid]

Ppl need to learn to be patient when it comes to preorderes

[idle crater]

take a vehicle and go 80-2 then

[arctic grove]

Good morning fellas

[shadow tangle]

Yeah spitgate got hella sweaty recently idk why lol its been unreal, little nerds practicing for ranked or something

[idle crater]

based and basedpilled

[slim quiver]

i completely disagree. If you sit at a distance with a tank, it is an extremely easy feat to just rack up kills with little risk

[idle crater]

yea no

if theres a non braindead vehicle user on the other team youll get killed

[shadow tangle]

The headshot with every gun in warzone video took me 13 hours to make and edit so ya know lol

[arctic grove]

Hamada flashbacks

[winged mantle]

Vehicles is only hard when you are facing down enemy vehicle mains that are really good at their vehicle of choice

[obsidian plover]

[arctic grove]

I just wanted to play a casual nice game all the sudden it just goes nuts

[idle crater]

eg; other people that are skilled at vehicles

[shadow tangle]

You should see how it in OCE server bro its insane

[slim quiver]

@idle crater notice the amount of time i spent in a tank and then look at the score

[wide shore]

Tanks only take skill when you’re actually moving from flag to flag.

[idle crater]

idk what that is

[winged mantle]

vehicles is easy when you have no one that can antivehicle you

[arctic grove]

@shadow tangle god dang dude that’s a lot of screen time but appreciate the grind

[shadow tangle]

I think vehicles are fine as long as there is appropriate counter measures

[slim quiver]

how do you not know what that is

[arctic grove]

I can feel myself already getting radiation poisoning lmao

[wide shore]

If you’re sitting on a hill all game, you ain’t doin shit

[slim quiver]

it has labels on it

[idle crater]

i consider bf4 to be the latest title sorry

[slim quiver]

its my bfv stats

[shadow tangle]

in BF4 you dont get good launchers for an eternity its pain

[molten trout]

where can u check this]

[slim quiver]

????

[shadow tangle]

the first launcher is horrid

[slim quiver]

How can you consider BF4 to be the latest title

[arctic grove]

Bf1 was good

Guys wtf is Xbox getting battlefield 2042 on oct 15 wtf

[next onyx]

The Law rocket is ok

[idle crater]

because

[arctic grove]

@wide shore No, you're sitting on a hill. therefore you're doing something (:

[idle crater]

1 and 5 are horrible

[slim quiver]

its 3 games behind

[idle crater]

so i denounce them

[pine roost]

Do you camp at the back of the map

[shadow tangle]

Lmao the fun games mode are still fun tho its a solid game for a team of 6

[next onyx]

1 and 5 isn't that bad

[slim quiver]

So you played them?

[idle crater]

yes

i started from bf3 so i'm biased

[arctic grove]

yea lol

[slim quiver]

thats how you use a vehicle

[arctic grove]

They just need to update the launch dates

[idle crater]

they dont feel right to me

[pine roost]

:/

[slim quiver]

Do you not consider them battlefield games

[idle crater]

thats absolutely not how you use a vehicle doe

[wide shore]

“I don’t like V & 1 so they don’t exist and your stats don’t matter”

[slim quiver]

I mean look at my score

[idle crater]

i didnt say his stats dont matter

congrats on the stats

[arctic grove]

Debatable

[winged mantle]

launchers are mainly AA if you want to effectively take on tanks then use tanks and lav's or the heavy attack chopper and missles

[pine roost]

It’s not what they are meant for but bfv’s design makes them somewhat challenging unless you snipe from afar

[idle crater]

i just think 1 and 5 are different games its my opinions

[modest furnace]

A little bit of tomfoolery

[arctic grove]

I honestly think EA and Dice could literally just invent infinite money if they just remastered/updated BF4. like all they need to do is just fix the servers so that they actually fucking work, then boom bam, instant M O N E Y

[idle crater]

yes

[shadow tangle]

I have 1 million pilot score in BF1

so

[wide shore]

Yuck, please no

[slim quiver]

I dont understand what you mean by Different games

do you not consider 1 and V to be battlefield games?

[arctic grove]

Yes but they better not do that shit, I'll not buy the same game with better graphics

[shadow tangle]

and 2 million tanker score

[long plinth]

Anyway guys vanguard released the open beta

[idle crater]

no otherwise i'd play them alot

[winged mantle]

I don't enjoy BF1 and 5 like I did BF4

[arctic grove]

Bf 1 and 5 are actually enjoyable

[idle crater]

but i accept the fact people enjoy them

[shadow tangle]

Idk why i cant preload the vanguard beta yet

[wide shore]

[slim quiver]

because 2042 is using BFV's mechanical design in their game so will you not consider 2042 a game?

[shadow tangle]

its already thursday for me

should be able to play now

[arctic grove]

@arctic grove you sure cuz doesn’t ea have a contract with Microsoft for Xbox shit so maybe they get that shit early while the rest sit and wait like children being punished

[shadow tangle]

REEEEEEEEE

[idle crater]

its not the mechanic or the graphics

its the gameplay

[arctic grove]

i mean, BF4 is on game pass ult. if i remember right??

[modest furnace]

Hardline wasnt as bad as everyone says it is

[slim quiver]

that is what the mechanics create

the gameplay is mechanics

[idle crater]

you just dont go from jdams, tv missiles, tows, to horses and lame barely automatic weapons

[slim quiver]

the gunplay, the movement

[idle crater]

lol movement

no helis

gud movements

[mighty pewter]

cod vanguard is ten times worse than BFV like damn dont even make me explain about the gun customization SMH

[wide shore]

I think they just don’t like historical shooters

[arctic grove]

Ain't gonna happen, didn't happen with past battlefield nor is gonna happen this time

[slim quiver]

barely automatic weapons? i really dont think you played BF1 or V

[modest furnace]

FAX

[idle crater]

i did

[slim quiver]

theres tons of automatic weapons in those games

[idle crater]

believe what you want

its just my opinion :3

they are horrible

[slim quiver]

Im just struggling to see how you dont consider 1 and V to be battlefield games

[idle crater]

the barely automatic part was a joke forget about it

[shadow tangle]

yeah lol full auto lee enfield in WW2!? LETS GOOOOOOOO @mighty pewter

[slim quiver]

it would be like me saying BF4 is not a battlefield game

[winged mantle]

if anything the sights are horrible, modern sights are much more enjoyable then WW2 sights

[mighty pewter]

BFV was a failure and its a game that shouldnt have exist like fr fr its trash

[idle crater]

bf4 is peak battlefield tho

objectively

[arctic grove]

Shouldn't we stop comparing bf and cod? This shit has been going on for ages

[slim quiver]

LMAO

[wide shore]

To me steel & wood. Horses and gas and blood are way more interesting than lock on weapons and 300 guns that are all functionally the same. But, to each their own.

[slim quiver]

Okay iu have to hear this one

[arctic grove]

I remember whenever BF1 originally came out there was the whole "Autimatico" thing. unless im remembering my history wrong and it was soething else?

[modest furnace]

This right here

[winged mantle]

I'd take a modern red dot over anything WW2

[slim quiver]

'tell me how its objectively peak battlefield

[shadow tangle]

We arent tho some BF games are doo doo water

[arctic grove]

The bullet spread is pure pain

[slim quiver]

because it didnt sell more than BF3 or BF1

[stark mason]

i read things here i should not be reading

[slim quiver]

so Ill wait how you figure this one out

[idle crater]

it has the most vehicle, weapon, gadget and mechanic variety that actually take skill to use

ez

[scarlet cloak]

I wouldn't call bullet spread skill

[slim quiver]

RNG Bullet spread isnt skill

[modest furnace]

[mighty pewter]

yea my grandad used STG with 60 rounds, vertical grip and holy smokes a fkin laser sight like COME ON LEARN UR HISTORY MAN SMHH

[idle crater]

idgaf about infantry

next

[shadow tangle]

I think what he meant was peak as in like peak gunplay and mechanics

[slim quiver]

and as for the vehicles?

[idle crater]

yes, vehicools

[wide shore]

[slim quiver]

doesnt even have as many vehicle variations as BF1942

[idle crater]

bf4 dominates in vehicools

idc about "how many", i care about the variety they add to the gameplay

does bf5 have helis?

[arctic grove]

Laughs in bf1

[idle crater]

boats?

[slim quiver]

no submarines
No destroyers
No carriers
no motor halftracks
no artillery tanks

[scarlet cloak]

Bf5 does have boats

Lol

[wide shore]

Yes, actually

[mighty pewter]

dude warzone has the best viechle physics idk wat u talkin about

[winged mantle]

Sniping in BF4 is more enjoyable imo then 1 or 5

[slim quiver]

1942 had 76 vehicles

[shadow tangle]

I dont really mind tho tbh. i think it works for cod. Game is set in WW2 but cod has always been an arcady shooter, i feel people hated it for BFV cause BF is more "grounded in realism" You know what i mean?

[mighty pewter]

u mean BF1?

[arctic grove]

i watched a stupid meme edit of the Vanguard reveal trailer and that exact thing came up. im not a gun nerd or anything but cmon guys, SERIOUSLY???

[pallid robin]

Bf4 vehicle best lol

[slim quiver]

and the most vehicle types out of any battlefield game

[idle crater]

the most

[slim quiver]

BF4 basically tossed naval warfare right out the window

[idle crater]

6934 lavs being the same isnt meaningful

[arctic grove]

Played every battlefield and honestly the 5 feels the best

[leaden orchid]

Ppl going crazy over a month delay when dying light fans been waiting for there game thats been delayed ABOUT 3 TIMES since 2019

[idle crater]

well youre comparing it with other bf titles now

[winged mantle]

the gunboat was fun asf though

[slim quiver]

tanks and helis and jets being the main focus isnt meaningful

[wide shore]

I’d rather play BF4 than Hardline. And if you know me, that’s saying a lot.

[idle crater]

were talking bf4 compared to 1/5

[slim quiver]

even 1942 had jets in the game

[idle crater]

planes*

[arctic grove]

Yea, apparently in BF1 people said if you turned off the hud and everything it was a borderline war simulator half the time lol

[mighty pewter]

@shadow tangle @arctic grove bruh if vanguard gets better sales than bf2042 then i dont wanna be on this planet anymore lol

[arctic grove]

I have no good feelings for that game anyway, stinky

[slim quiver]

No there were jets in secret weapons

[idle crater]

oh ok i didnt know that

too old for me ig

[leaden orchid]

The first one was a hall of famer

[arctic grove]

uwu

[slim quiver]

im basically giving you the advantage

[arctic grove]

total halal mode

[slim quiver]

im comparing a game from 2002 to a battlefield from 2013

[idle crater]

its a matter of opinions there are no advantages

[leaden orchid]

But ppl gotta stop going crazy over a damn MONTH delay lmao

[idle crater]

in my opinion 1 and 5 are wack

[slim quiver]

you said objectively

[fallen thorn]

BF3 had best vehicle balance

[shadow tangle]

I LOVED BF1s immersion, its the only game in MP when i KEEP THE MUSIC ON. All other games i shut all MP music off automatically

[idle crater]

bf5 literally almost killed the franchise

[slim quiver]

if you want to say Battlefield 4 is peak battlefield subjectively ill accept rhat

[arctic grove]

that will lead me into a level of dissapointment with humanity i didnt know i still had left lmao. Even tho 2042 is just BF4 and Just Cause 4, at least it's not redoing the same era over again

[mighty pewter]

I hate the bf4 bullet pattern its annoying tbh but the rest of the game is great

[arctic grove]

Hoping it's just a month... Ya know

[slim quiver]

No it did not almost kill the franchise

[idle crater]

they had to pull a bf3/4 fanservice trailer to rescue it

[slim quiver]

tell me how hardline sold 4 million copies, BF1 sold 26 million the year after

[arctic grove]

True, almost everything is good despite that fucking bullet spread

[leaden orchid]

True, but we only see delays happen about 1-2 times

[arctic grove]

props to EA marketing on that one lmfao. i mean there were game issues, but i just remember the marketing fuck-ups

[idle crater]

i know failing games that sold in the millions

selling in the millions is cool and good

[shadow tangle]

Its cod, it will. Ive pre ordered it because i know it will do well on my YT and i can meme on it. Plus i love mindlessly grinding camos, its like a brain switch off even if its sweaty i love it

[idle crater]

but its not all

[arctic grove]

Finger crossed

[slim quiver]

BFV wasnt even far off from being considered a success

[winged mantle]

sounds like you guys suck at recoil management

[shadow tangle]

yep

[slim quiver]

it sold 8 million copies

it was 1 million off

[crimson dragon]

poo

[molten trout]

if it reached it's sale quota was it a fail?

[wide shore]

BF1 is the GOAT.

[scarlet cloak]

Bf1 is great

[leaden orchid]

Vanguard MIGHT be good, but I’m not gonna buy it until I see some reviews from it, like actual reviews

[mighty pewter]

BFV shouldnt be talked at all cuz its trash trash i hate it

[scarlet cloak]

But I can't play it anymore

[arctic grove]

Bf5 is hands down the worst battlefield I've ever played

[slim quiver]

would people really rather have a battlefield game that has RNG Spread

[idle crater]

new battlefield titles will always sell alot across all platforms because 1. EA 2. its like FIFA and CoD, dont fool yourselves

[leaden orchid]

BFV is the only bf I didnt like

[wide shore]

[mellow kite]

does anyone know if squad size is going back to 5 or if it'll stay 4

[slim quiver]

I mean BF4 was the worst battlefield ive ever played, and ive played them all lol

[wide shore]

Staying 4

[scarlet cloak]

Tis not fun finding a hacker in every game

[mighty pewter]

the game is just a BFV moment but worse

[shadow tangle]

I played BFV for 2 hours on PC then uninstalled

[arctic grove]

I cant wait for that whenever i get BF2042 lmao I've never played a battlefield game so idfk how that shit works. im so fucked haha

[idle crater]

why is it the worst

[radiant echo]

Good morning guys I hop there is no saltyness 👌

[leaden orchid]

Bruh

[fallen thorn]

worked well in BF3. No problems there

[shadow tangle]

its the worst

[winged mantle]

the reason I couldn't stay in BF1 or 5 is because of the era, it's not very exciting to me

[arctic grove]

Tastes are tastes, ain't gonna debate

[idle crater]

why is bf4 the worst

[arctic grove]

@radiant echo too late lmao

[shadow tangle]

i played it on release on console and its just not great idk

[leaden orchid]

BF4 is top 3 best bf all time

[wide shore]

I haven’t played them all, but I agree

[fallen thorn]

Bf4 is pretty bad tho

[stark cove]

I really enjoy BFV with friends lately while taking a break from Apex

[radiant echo]

You have violated the law

[idle crater]

sounds like skill issues ngl

[radiant echo]

[shadow tangle]

BF4 is very hard to get good at

i feel

[arctic grove]

It is enjoyable, but the mechanics are the worse of the series

[leaden orchid]

I feel like hardline was overhated, it wasn’t a bad game at all

[shadow tangle]

its not just a game where you can jump into

[slim quiver]

hm?

[mighty pewter]

very factua

[idle crater]

true

[scarlet cloak]

Bullet spread just plagues bf4

[valid comet]

I liked bf4 tho, doesn’t mean it’s good or bad

[scarlet cloak]

Tho I do love bf4

[idle crater]

and this is why it gets the hate

its the least casual bf title

[wide shore]

Hard to get good at cause it’s not enjoyable enough to play.

[shadow tangle]

Ive been getting it recently and LITERALLY BEEN RAM RODED WITH VEHICLE SWEATS

[fallen thorn]

hardline is mega underrated

[idle crater]

no because ur not getting kills

[arctic grove]

Speaking truth here, took me months to get used to it

[winged mantle]

battlefront is not a battlefield game wth

[shadow tangle]

its been unreal

[arctic grove]

it was solely cus it was such a hard turn from a military genre into a cops n robbers one, thats why it was so hated

[wide shore]

I can play BF4 just fine.

[idle crater]

doubt

[wintry narwhal]

hardline was a good time

[wide shore]

I choose not to

[arctic grove]

It was

[shadow tangle]

BF4 vehicles are too powerful tbh

[winged mantle]

PS2 Battlefront was the real shit

[mighty pewter]

battlefield heroes and battlefield free to play were hMMM HMMMM UHH UUHHH AHHHHHH PAY TO FKIN WINNNNNNN MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY

[shadow tangle]

and maps were WAY TOO OPEN

with no damn cover

[leaden orchid]

I mean to be fair, bf1 also switched to WW1

[molten trout]

you can easily take them out though

[shadow tangle]

so vehicles rain supreme

[wide shore]

By this logic you don’t like BF1 and BFV cause you suck at them.

[arctic grove]

Wasn't there a goddamn DRIVABLE COUCH in that game as an easter egg?

[scarlet cloak]

Dragon valley

[wide shore]

Easy flip

[idle crater]

good thing we agree

[slim quiver]

I didnt like BF4 for numerous reasons but 1. Launch was the worst in BF history. 2. RNG Bullet spread made gunplay feel bad. 3. Movement exploits meant that I had to slither, recoil jump and vault cancel to be ahead of the crowd. 4. None of the maps were very memorable to me. 5. There was a large weapon list, but only a hand full of them were used and felt useful competitively

[leaden orchid]

Yeah

[shadow tangle]

Not if you have doorknobs for team mates

[shadow tangle]

SILK ROAD

[valid comet]

Played some bf V grand operations yesterday, was very enjoyable

[radiant echo]

BF4 is good unless you're more infantry and don't like tap fire

[molten trout]

you can solo a heli with aa mine + an rpg if your aim is good

[arctic grove]

Is there someone who actually likes operation metro? I'm genuinely curious

[leaden orchid]

BFV is the worst battlefield ever

[slim quiver]

the movement in BF4 is extremely floating

[molten trout]

a tank you'd need a bit more cover though

[slim quiver]

yes

[wide shore]

Love metro

[idle crater]

based

[slim quiver]

I played it all the time in bf3

[scarlet cloak]

Operation metro is one of my favourite maps

Along side Siege of Shanghai

[wide shore]

Metro>Locker

[slim quiver]

did you play all the BF games

[molten trout]

operation locker > metro imo

[wintry narwhal]

yessir

[leaden orchid]

Yes

[valid comet]

Yep i like it , it’s hell but I like it

[winged mantle]

Locker over metro

[shadow tangle]

Shanghai is the worst

its tank pwnage

[arctic grove]

Played it like, 3 times, pure base raping

[tulip badge]

I swear in most battlefield games medics are rare, i swear to god people don't know how to rez lmao.

[slim quiver]

Okay then thats acceptable

[fallen thorn]

• vehicle balance was garbage
• "Levolution" was a joke on most maps

[wide shore]

Fort De Vaux>Metro>Locker

[idle crater]

ok i respect your opinions but legit who cares about what the launch was like 8 years ago

[leaden orchid]

BFV didn’t give me any good hype for it at all

[scarlet cloak]

It only becomes the worst map to be, when the tower goes down

[slim quiver]

I never use vehicles so i dont know much about vehicle balance

[leaden orchid]

And that boring battle royale that they did with the game made it even worse

[lime phoenix]

Will people who preordered still get to play in October or is it delayed for all

[wintry narwhal]

infantry only servers were best bf4 servers

[idle crater]

vehicles are balanced in bf4

[arctic grove]

Virgins destroying the tower vs Chads taking the roof

[scarlet cloak]

Delayed for all

[wintry narwhal]

Those invincible littlebirds gave me grey hairs

[leaden orchid]

It’s for everyone

[molten trout]

altho levolution had it's limits it was fun seeing the destruction

[slim quiver]

people still care that there was women in BFV and it was 3 years ago

[molten trout]

being in a building when it went down sucked tho

[lime phoenix]

Do you know the new date?

[shadow tangle]

I dont think 2042 will have OP vehicles

[idle crater]

incels and who cares about their opinions

[arctic grove]

i remember anytime i watch a vid of BF easter eggs and i see Paracel Islands pop up i get shudders lmfao

[winged mantle]

Caspian Border is fun for both infantry and vehicles

[shadow tangle]

they got it better with 1 and 5

[leaden orchid]

Who said anything about that?

[scarlet cloak]

19th November for standard owners, not sure on gold/ult but probably the 12th november

[valid comet]

Is 19 the release for people with standard edition preorder btw ?

[slim quiver]

people who have discussions obviously care about what the other person is thinking

[wide shore]

To carry on that, people still bring up the prosthetic arm, and that never even got into the game.

[molten trout]

bfv had op tanks lol

[vocal mango]

no

[tulip badge]

XD

[slim quiver]

Nobody was referring to any of you, but ive seen it on this server, on the forums, reddit, the original backlash to the games trailer lol

[idle crater]

i mean the whole women in bf is a shit take and i suspect its being done by cod shills cuz its so stupid. WHO CARES if a game has women or not

[slim quiver]

and thats how you know they never played it

[winged mantle]

my Compound Bow accuracy in BF4 is over 150% wth lol

[leaden orchid]

True

[wide shore]

The problem with tanks on V is players don’t get enough rockets.

[wintry narwhal]

I didn't care about the women or the prosthetics, i was just sick of ye olde world war games by the time they both released

[wide shore]

Yeepppp

[slim quiver]

Its the opposite. I also play cod and ive never really heard cod players complain women are in the game

[wintry narwhal]

Gimme modern stuff to murder people with

[molten trout]

the glancing system in V was so ridiculous lol

[leaden orchid]

Same

[arctic grove]

So wait, if i preorder it and have game pass i might be able to play on the 12th? again, assuming your idea is accurate

[idle crater]

cod has less incels then i guess

[slim quiver]

the battlefield Milsim, Historical nuts were the ones that gave a shit

[arctic grove]

As someone said earlier, modern red dot over anything WWII lol

[shadow tangle]

You kidding? the cod community is the most toxic gaming community on earth

[valid comet]

Very bad people

[slim quiver]

never heard cod fans bitch about female operators

[edgy trout]

Bf4 has horrible gunplay

[wintry narwhal]

That's a sentence i never thought i'd see

[scarlet cloak]

Long as you have gold or ultimate edition yea

[idle crater]

wasn't easy to type

[molten trout]

they take it less seriously

[wide shore]

The only historical bit that annoys me on V is the elites being used across theaters. But even that is whatever.

[molten trout]

which isnt a bad thing

[coral mantle]

Only OG's will agree✊🏾

[scarlet cloak]

Gold and ultimate will still get it early, it's just we don't know what date for that will be

[slim quiver]

3D spotting was also really freaking bad in BF4

[fallen thorn]

You didnt even notice the most of them. Shanghai was a great promotion but no other map had this kind of Levolution.
Paracel storm was fun... the other maps... cant even remember...
Like this flood zone map.. yes the whole maps gets flooded... but the combat is on rooftop anyway... so didnt even notice most of the time xD

[worldly star]

[shadow tangle]

ive had people be incredibly racist and insensitive on cod to not me but others, its disgusting

[slim quiver]

smokes meant literally nothing

any sort of team spotting and 3D spotting is trash

[arctic grove]

No, the Problem is that they do not work together to take a tank down. If 4 Players attack a tank, it will be destroyed very fast.

[idle crater]

you know

[arctic grove]

oh hell yea. might def. be worth to dump $70 or so into that

[leaden orchid]

That’s just toxicity

[idle crater]

you can be spotted too

[wintry narwhal]

The worst part of bf4 was unlocking the desert eagle. 6 waterbased headshots with the unica? pull the other one

[valid comet]

Any CoD 2 Vets in here ? 😎

[molten trout]

lancang dam, the bf3 legacy maps had some levolution that totally affected the map

there were alot of levolution events that affected the maps lol

[slim quiver]

yeah dw that happens, I've been sexually harassed in cod and bf alike, it happens. its just gaming in general

[wide shore]

Good luck getting a squad of randoms to take down a tank that sits on the edge of the map humping the resupply station.

[arctic grove]

one the one or two experiences i had with BF4 (cus the servers are borked), Flood Zone was honestly fine lol. i loved it, even if i got my ass kicked haha

[leaden orchid]

Imo, ppl gotta realize that shit happens to any game that has multiplayer

[scarlet cloak]

Gold is probably the best one to get imo, year 1 season pass, 4 free battlepasses, and early access to playing the game on release

[leaden orchid]

It’s not just CoD

[idle crater]

flood zone is pog

[shadow tangle]

yeah cod is bad

[molten trout]

floodzone annoying af

[leaden orchid]

It’s just toxicity gaming

[molten trout]

unless it's rush gamemode

[shadow tangle]

but so is LOL, CS GO and Siege

[leaden orchid]

How

[wintry narwhal]

Get the ultimate, for the all black corner crouching "Roze" tactic

[vapid solar]

Cod: Battlefield 2077

[shadow tangle]

those are all bad

[wide shore]

Flood zone is one of the worst maps ever.

[leaden orchid]

What games do u play if I ask?

[idle crater]

floodzone is fun with a vehicool

[shadow tangle]

FPS Mostly, only really cod and Splitgate atm

[leaden orchid]

This dude just said CSGO and seige are bad…..

[shadow tangle]

are you stupid

[wide shore]

I’d rather play on Suez, and I fucking hate Suez

[molten trout]

siege not that bad

[arctic grove]

I mean you are in a squad, maybe you should find some friends to play with, Not with randoms 😅

[shadow tangle]

are you even reading the conversation?

[arctic grove]

I mean, I do have a bunch of cash left over from this summer so i just might do this lmfao (:

[wintry narwhal]

Siege is just Camping: The game. Never did anything for me

[shadow tangle]

thats not what we are even talking about

[molten trout]

its more adrenaline for me

[leaden orchid]

Camping goes for any FPS game too, it’s just strategy

[molten trout]

close quarters with alot of communication / tactics made it fun

[wintry narwhal]

Camping isn't strategy, it's cheesing

[wide shore]

Hey, I don’t always play with my friends. Cause they don’t always want to play. Point is, you give infantry only 2 rockets on spawn, they’re just gonna tickle tanks.

[molten trout]

how much hrs u put into r6s?

[leaden orchid]

To be fair, Running around getting urself killed and risking to lose the game is dumb asf

[molten trout]

camping isnt the only tactic lol

[leaden orchid]

Sometimes you gotta play it smart

[molten trout]

especially in casual

[shadow tangle]

true the fact they changed it to 2 rockets in BFV is pathetic

[arctic grove]

the only good experience i had w/ siege was when i got an Ace with Fuze using all 3 charges back when Maverick was introduced lmao

[leaden orchid]

Especially when your playing Search and Destroy or some shit, you HAVE to camp there

[wintry narwhal]

fuck all, didn't like it lol. But i've been an fps gamer since the 90s, and camping has always been looked down on as a petty, lame approach to multiplayer games. Cant get past it

[molten trout]

i think of it like fps chess as pretentious as that sounds

[wide shore]

Not to mention it seems like the tanks have RNG on whether they consider an ass shot a critical in V.

[tulip badge]

Are you even playing the game at this point if you are camping a stairset the entire game? lmao.

[wide shore]

I feel like most of the time, it doesn’t

[arctic grove]

But it seems to be a game design question. You are forced to work as a team against tanks 😅

[arctic grove]

good for you lol
if you're camping, so be it. you've found a style that works, and they're bad for not being able to get around it lmfao
there is also the fact it's annoying, which is true

[wintry narwhal]

Yeah, i get what you're saying, It just doesn't work for me

[molten trout]

nobody's camping a stairset for the entire round doe

[leaden orchid]

Ppl need to realize that ppl are gonna camp, it’s never gonna stop

[molten trout]

these are overexaggerations but people who play r6s dont resort to only camping

[wide shore]

Or, they can just give infantry more rockets. Cause I’m V infantry is just tank fodder. Nobody is a threat

[tulip badge]

I just like to run n gun.

[arctic grove]

it isn't invinciblity, just protection

[molten trout]

matter of fact there are ops like caveira that are given incentives to hunt attackers lol

[shadow tangle]

Tbh with 2042 you now just ammo create and then keep going

[leaden orchid]

That’s an easy way to die too and risk your team to lose

[wide shore]

I fucking hate 4, but at least when I shot a tank in the ass with a rocket I got a disable and like 30+ damage.

[tulip badge]

Not when you are good at it. xD

[arctic grove]

But they want teamplay.

[molten trout]

shouldve taken out glance system

[tulip badge]

I mean then again everyone has a playstyle they are good at.

[wide shore]

Then why can 1 person in a tank do fuck all team play wise and destroy everything.

[molten trout]

so frustrating being assault and getting glance when you the only person focusing a tank

[wide shore]

Seems fucked up to me

[winged mantle]

My play style is adaptable to whats going on, I can fill basically any role that the team needs to balance or overcome the enemy team

[arctic grove]

I solo queue all the time so this is gonna be hella fun when BF2042 drops lol

[sullen badge]

I just destroy humans

[arctic grove]

It's a tank. Use a plane and drop something on it 😅

[winged mantle]

tanks can shoot down planes

[molten trout]

can you adapt to a hacker with invisible on while having esp and moving at super speeds

[arctic grove]

Or use the plane as the munition and crash into it

[winged mantle]

doesn't work

[wide shore]

My point is, you say they want team play. But then why do tanks require 0 team play, and the only way to take them out is to have a squad of assaults all coordinated?

[winged mantle]

crashing planes doesn't net you a vehicle kill

[molten trout]

it still destroys the tank tho

[winged mantle]

I take out tanks solo

[molten trout]

thats what ur going for anyway

[winged mantle]

It's easy to take out tanks solo what you mean

[sullen badge]

Vehicles in 2042 will be different

[winged mantle]

I did it all the time

[wide shore]

At least in firestorm tanks required multiple players to use them. 1 driver, 1 main gunner, one secondary gunner ect

[sullen badge]

They be team based

[molten trout]

the jets hover system look cool af

[winged mantle]

that was a thing in BF3-4

[wide shore]

I’ve heard that before

[winged mantle]

hover jet was kinda useless because it makes you slow to maneuver away from rockets

[molten trout]

was it as functional as displayed in 42?

[winged mantle]

hover mode equals sitting air duck

[arctic grove]

Uhhhh quick question for everyone-
favorite map coming at launch? mine is Hourglass, ez

[winged mantle]

I mean you could try and get lucky but why risk hover jet when you had perfectly good helo's

[wide shore]

From the looks of it. Probably manifest

[winged mantle]

the scenario depicted in 2042 with the hover jet is 100% easily conterable

[arctic grove]

yee

[molten trout]

for sure there are weakness but it'll get rid of infantry on a spot quickly

[winged mantle]

you lose maneuverability when in hover mode and become an easy target for rockets let alone you can get shot through canopy

No infantry will get rid of you first

All it takes is a rocket to nick you and plane goes boom

[molten trout]

depends

[winged mantle]

You would have to get extremely lucky for the enemy team not to hear a loud ass jet trying hover up to you

and again why risk hover jet when the helo's can do it better

wait that was a helo in the 2042 trailer not hover jet

[peak basin]

Just put a suppressor on the exhaust port.

[winged mantle]

wth are you on about

lol

go into maglev mode

[molten trout]

theres was a gp of a jet going hovermode and just razing down people

[winged mantle]

a poweful enough maglev engine would be noisy asf too

[molten trout]

not referring to official gp

[winged mantle]

regardless it's not gonna be done enough since you lose all maneuverability and helo's are just gonna do it better

[slim quiver]

thats the one thing i hate about modern bf games

[winged mantle]

hop in a helo if you wanna strafe a squad with some 20-30 mike mike

[slim quiver]

so many efficient vehicles and gadgets that theres so much shit in the game just doing the work for the player without ever firing a gun

[molten trout]

thats why i liked bf3

bf4*

[slim quiver]

just throw down an ammo crate and start lobbing grenades and switching to a grenade launcher and then rinsing and repeating

[winged mantle]

helo's are easy to take down too though

[molten trout]

alot of gadgets

[arctic grove]

I think it's a good move to release Battlefield 2042 after vanguard

[molten trout]

made the game fun for me

[winged mantle]

I never felt like helo's or vehicles were OP, just gotta learn how to take them down quickly

[vocal tusk]

You mean you DONT like 64 player metro?

😆

[arctic grove]

The 1 month release delay is a much worse sign than a long delay

[zinc egret]

@slim quiver eey zzzy i have decided to refund battlefield becaus it releases same time as pokemon and im a hardcore shiny hunter and cant play 2 big games same time 😭 😭 so had to chose

I hope you will have a great time 😄

[molten trout]

here we go again

[arctic grove]

Short 1 month delays make it seen like the team are crying for extra time to get the game running and its being rushed

[winged mantle]

I don't think you can fit 64 people in Op metro

[arctic grove]

Battledelay 2042

[leaden kernel]

Good morning

[winged mantle]

it's already a cluster fuck as is

[arctic grove]

Why u say that? The play test didn't look bad to me

If a team actually delays, its usually for months for polish

[neon pagoda]

GAME DELAYED -- i report dice to Russian Government

Putin will solve it

[arctic grove]

The fact its so short seems like its the team getting whatever they can, and they're being forced to hurry it out in a playable state

It doesn't look good

If it was an 8 month delay that would be a better sign

[winged mantle]

Op metro gets very one sided very quickly if your team isn't holding or taking choke points quickly

[arctic grove]

For actual development, a month isnt going to do much lol, outside of crunch

Play test had bugs but I seen worst in battlefield 3 beta and most of BF3 bugs was gone at release

[radiant echo]

Why tf the subereddit is so salty

[compact gorge]

Or maybe, becuase it's a month, the problem that needed attention wasn't that big.

[winged mantle]

because it's reddit

that saltiness made it here too

[slim quiver]

because they have nothing else to do with their time

[compact gorge]

Also, a lot can be done in a month depending on what they needed to spend time working on

[arctic grove]

@compact gorge development isnt gung ho, things are planned in sprints usually, and this isnt a good sign, especially with things going quiet for ages before this month delay annoucement

[radiant echo]

Lol it's like they're acting it's the end of the world

[slim quiver]

The sub Reddit is also filled with a lot of people that haven’t played a battlefield past BF4 because they skipped the past 3 games

[arctic grove]

1 month is not "plan out development" its "oh sht we need to get this playable fully its not ready"

[radiant echo]

And pushing everyone to cancel the pre-orders as it will help the game ffs

[knotty fable]

Tom giving away 10 copies of bf2042

[radiant echo]

Yeah

[compact gorge]

I mean, maybe, we really jsut have to see when it releases

[neon pagoda]

maybe they delay cause 10xx series gfx cards are screaming whenever the game opens

[vocal tusk]

People fail to understand that a delay of a month is a huge amount of time.

Think of it like this...When you release a game...at least 50% of your team works on the live service, the other 50% on patches and future content (At least in the first weeks of the game). By delaying a month, they can keep 100% of the team working on the base game, polishing, optimizing and fixing known bugs. without having to worry about tens of thousands of bug reports of known issues they are already fixing.

[arctic grove]

Nah that would be a bad sign if they released it next year lol

[winged mantle]

the main maps I remember from BF3 were the oil fields, docks, and really not much else

[radiant echo]

Yeah for sure

[arctic grove]

Im excited for it we can hope yeah

[slim quiver]

Thats only if they do it that way

[winged mantle]

I'd imagine they have all available staff working on bugs and performance optimization being this close to launch

[radiant echo]

I think they thought they're gonna polish it from office which is better for communication and addressing problems

[random violet]

One month away from the release! Can't wait 🥰

[winged mantle]

Also sweden restrictions are still active so I'd imagine that's not helping

[radiant echo]

But still working from home and if the game isn't as broken as BF4/BF5 I gotta say that will be so impressive

[vocal tusk]

Are DICE even back in an office? Judging by twitter it seems like its mostly work from home

[molten trout]

na they rnt

[radiant echo]

At last we still have beta so idk why they're crying so much about the game being so bad

[radiant echo]

Yeah still from home

[slim quiver]

Thing is, all I’m going to say is with a 1 month delay I expect 2042 to launch with its first season already starting. It’s going to be a huge blow if BF doesn’t start with it’s season already launched imo

[winged mantle]

I don't think Swedens restrictions have been lifted enough yet

[vocal tusk]

Its highly likely the Beta is also pushed back.

[slim quiver]

It is

[winged mantle]

https://twitter.com/_Tom_Henderson_/status/1438397723145814021?s=20

[slim quiver]

They stated in the news that beta updates would come later this month

[stark cove]

BFV had max. lvl 50 on launch, hadn't it?

[slim quiver]

There’s only 2 weeks of September left

The beta will prob be October

[winged mantle]

if that tweet is to be believed early Oct for beta

[neon pagoda]

14 year old ivanov who hosts the dice servers dropped his ak47 on the server rack yesterday now they gotta get 15 year old ivankov to come fix it

[vocal tusk]

I dont think players will care. So much base game content that no one will have played. Players wont need new content or a new season at launch IMO.

[winged mantle]

that gives them 2-3 weeks to get beta ready for launch

[arctic grove]

If Activision released an 150 player warzone EA/Dice can do this. Their better

[molten trout]

to be honest, i feel like they would, they're already nitpicky about everything so there's a probability there would be some complaints

[vocal tusk]

Beta build will have to do validation on console. Remember that. For the xbox, it can take up to 2 weeks for this process

[slim quiver]

I think they will especially for the players who bought both cod and BF will care. Cod warzone integration starts 3 days after BF launch and the season will have already started

[radiant echo]

I have a theory about that : the game may launch with season 0 to unlock base game stuff and some skins and after 2 months we get season 1 new map or more and new sepcalist and whole new battlepass also hazard zone ( that wouldn't be bad imo ) right ?

[slim quiver]

It wouldn’t be bad if there’s unlocks

[winged mantle]

even with a delay announcement they have to have been working on the beta release this whole time

[slim quiver]

If have to wait a whole 1 month for unlocks

Why would I continue to play bf over cod at that point

[vocal tusk]

I mean...are we not expecting base game to come with a progression system or something?

[radiant echo]

hmmmmmmmmm

[slim quiver]

When there’s a season already going on, I’d just wait for the season before I sink my time in

[radiant echo]

Base weapons and 6 specialists to unlock out of 10 and skins maybe

[winged mantle]

I'd seriously doubt all weapons will be unlocked, I'd imagine they will do the current progression system

[stark cove]

Or other games, yeah. But that's the reason I'd like to see some kind of battlepass or other unlocks on launch.

[slim quiver]

We expect the customization to be a part of the premium battlepass and that’s where the majority of good customization will be from

[vocal tusk]

Season pass unlocks have never been a reason for me to play the likes of WZ or Apex. So I guess im just not one of the people in this demographic

[slim quiver]

I don’t even play warzone

[vocal tusk]

I mean weapons, vehicles, attachments ETC

[slim quiver]

But season pass unlocks come from the base game as well

All of it contributes

[winged mantle]

Why do you need season 1 progression when you still have to unlock the existing weapons?

[slim quiver]

All I’m saying is, if you want to make money, you need to at least be in match with the competition

[radiant echo]

I mean if they won't launch the game right away with season 1 with the new specialist and the new map or more We're gonna wait for that

[slim quiver]

Because if 2042’s season pass is a big grind

And we know cods is also a big grind

People won’t do both

They will commit to 1

[winged mantle]

Okay but people just spent 60-100 on the game why would they spend more unlocking in game content for season 1?

[radiant echo]

COD usually dies after 6 months or so

idk

[slim quiver]

All cods decrease in a bout a year

But MW19 has been populated for 2 years

You can still find a match in 20 seconds

[vocal tusk]

I expect the season pass to do like it does for Apex. Unlock like 20-30 levels of the battle pass...the rest is on you. this guarantees that at the start of a season...pass holders get a shit load of stuff, but also have a lot to play towards

[radiant echo]

True

[arctic grove]

The specialist thing is a great idea for battlefield. Now our player can really stand out with different skins specialist etc. I love this move

[radiant echo]

Yeah it will be heavily inspired by apex

[slim quiver]

Well for gold and ultimate we have the first 4 premium passes for free along with our edition

[vocal tusk]

This moreso shows how lackluster cold war was to players TBH

[radiant echo]

Yeah

[slim quiver]

I mean Cold War is also still populated

[molten trout]

cold war looked ass tbh

[slim quiver]

There’s less players split between cod games than battlefield

[vocal tusk]

I also think (Like myself) that a lot of players are just fed up of WW1/2 shooters

[radiant echo]

Yeah it's the latest one

[slim quiver]

Battlefield has a ton of people playing BFV, BF1 and BF4

[winged mantle]

so are you expecting that there won't be a lot of base weapons to unlock like in previous BF

[slim quiver]

And even has numerous filled servers in hardline and BF3

[radiant echo]

Yeah look at BF4 compared to COD ghosts

[slim quiver]

Yeah exactly

Like Cod rarely splits a player base

[winged mantle]

I miss Ghosts tbh

[radiant echo]

RSP is really good

[radiant echo]

Yeah with every year a new game that's not so much different which is ok

[slim quiver]

Im more concerned that hazard zone will be free to play

I don’t want hazard zone to compete with warzone

I just want it to be it’s own thing

[radiant echo]

When I look at BF4 ,BF5 and BF1 they're so different

[winged mantle]

I though hazard zone is supposed to be natures fury

[radiant echo]

It won't cuz it's not exclusive to 1 map

[slim quiver]

Hazard zone we know nothing about

Just that it’s high stakes squad gameplay

[arctic grove]

True on twitch I seen the same amount watching BFV as cold War the other day and BFV came out in 2018

[radiant echo]

Idk I saw some data mining

Doubt it's gonna be with a unique map or a BR game at all

[slim quiver]

Yea exactly

I think people overlook just how divided the BF community is

[molten trout]

theres nothing rlly special about cold war

most cod games tbh aged like milk

advanced warfare, ghosts, infinity war, blops 3 & 4

[winged mantle]

expired milk is the cheese 😂

[radiant echo]

Yeah cuz BF1 didn't replace BF4 and BF5 pretty much didn't replace BF1 cuz they're so much different to play

[slim quiver]

We literally have players that will tell you there hasn’t been a good BF game since BF4. There’s so many reasons of division here lol

People that only like old shooters

Vs modern shooters

[wide shore]

I’m the former

[radiant echo]

I think MW did pretty well but I can't say that after 6 years

[slim quiver]

Vs vehicle focused BFs vs infantry focused bfs

[winged mantle]

BF1 and 5 are nice, just not my era of gameplay

[radiant echo]

BF4 is still popping off after 8 years

[slim quiver]

Personally I don’t like modern BFs

[wide shore]

I don’t only like old shooters. But I do prefer them. They just have that OOMF that Modern shooters don’t have.

[arctic grove]

True I had a ton of fun playing Battlefield Hardline. If Hardline is added to portal that's a good move

[slim quiver]

Hardline was fun

But I’d rather have Vietnam and 2142 added first

[radiant echo]

I prefer battlefield to be a sandbox like BF4 more than a focused experienced like BF1 and BF5

[vocal tusk]

I dont think the BF community is particularly divided (Outside of setting/era preference). I think everyone is just waiting for the next game. BFV IMO gave up on content way too fast, the game was in a good place when everything just stopped.

[wide shore]

Mud, blood & barbed wire. That’s war to me.

[tropic mantle]

thats your opinion and its valid, the market says they want modern BFs and there hasnt been any since 4/Hardline(?) so its a nice change of pace

[slim quiver]

This and we don’t need to deal with annoying gadgets

[winged mantle]

Vietnam would just be people camping in trees

[radiant echo]

I think in the of the day Portal will have something to offer for everyone

[slim quiver]

Markets opinion depends on the sales tbh

[wide shore]

All the more reason.

[tropic mantle]

its all fun and games until you hear the trees speak vietnamese

[radiant echo]

Either you like more infantry skilled play or wacky sandbox

[molten trout]

rising storm 2 vietnam was pretty good

[wide shore]

Vietnam needs to be the first portal expansion. I’ll lose my shit

[arctic grove]

Adding portal custom match with specialist vs robbers would be lit

[radiant echo]

[slim quiver]

2042 really needs to wow people with the sales

If it hits only like 14 million I’d be very surprised

[tropic mantle]

oh same, like stuff from BF Vietnam or BF Bad Company 2: Vietnam would be pretty great

[slim quiver]

So far the most popular battlefield game takes place in the oldest war period BF has ever done

[radiant echo]

It's now in tricky sandwich between COD and Halo like titanfall 2 was I hope it sells well

[slim quiver]

BF1 sold double BF4’s sales

[wide shore]

Imagine the range of portal having content from the lineage of 1918-2042

[tropic mantle]

i would just love a remake of those propaganda speakers that just sold that dreary vibe that the original BF Vietnam game had if they ever put their maps in Portal

[vocal tusk]

Modern BF games do annoy me with how many indirect fire gadgets there are. Like in BF4...UCAV, Mortars etc
