[timber flint]

Last day is the 10th

[arctic grove]

[mental stone]

bf2042 open beta but.............I got the halo infinite technical preview invite lessgo

[timber flint]

Nope on there Twitter map it says last day 10th 7pm

[arctic grove]

I saw it too.

[shadow summit]

[arctic grove]

Weird.

[round pendant]

my pc specs barely make it to battle field 2042 level

[woeful ingot]

UTC?

[ancient lichen]

I’m gonna check Twitter, if you’re wrong I’ll yell at you

[shadow summit]

maybe miss typed? look back at the video it says 8-9

[mental stone]

you just go to a website named halo insider

[timber flint]

Even than 8-9 is still 2 days

[mental stone]

and then register for it

[arctic grove]

I have a GTX 960 4GB and a PS4. Where should I play the beta?

[mental stone]

[shadow summit]

[mental stone]

[mental stone]

of my laptop ?

[ancient lichen]

I hope it’s good

[steep lodge]

[arctic grove]

Ye

[opaque acorn]

Why is recommended GPU standard ridiculously high😅 RTX3060

[arctic grove]

Do you guys turn down Res to 720p for extra frames like csgo players?

[mental stone]

i7 10750h, rtx 2060, 16 gigs of ram

and rgb to increase performance

[timber flint]

It says 10th https://www.ea.com/en-au/games/battlefield/battlefield-2042/news/battlefield-briefing-progression-and-cosmetics

[arctic grove]

3060 is same as 2080

[timber flint]

Look at the map on there post

[opaque acorn]

Mine is 2060

[mental stone]

i think 2080 gives higher performance as compared to 3060

[timber flint]

There it says 10th 7pm end of beta https://www.ea.com/en-au/games/battlefield/battlefield-2042/news/battlefield-briefing-progression-and-cosmetics

[arctic grove]

Well a PS5 performs equal to a 2080S.

[wooden tusk]

website i looked at says 1080ti is better than 3060, could not beleive it

[arctic grove]

So it's alright.

[opaque acorn]

I guess i will play with mid settings

[mental stone]

@arctic grove can my laptop run it ?

[timber flint]

https://www.ea.com/en-au/games/battlefield/battlefield-2042/news/battlefield-briefing-progression-and-cosmetics look at the map in the post

[opaque acorn]

need to maintain FPS over 90

[arctic grove]

Ofc lol

[mental stone]

but can my pc run minecraft tho ?

[arctic grove]

Why not turn down res all the way for 100+?

[timber flint]

https://www.ea.com/en-au/games/battlefield/battlefield-2042/news/battlefield-briefing-progression-and-cosmetics

[shadow summit]

cuz windows 11

🤣

[timber flint]

@shadow summit that’s where it says 10th end of beta https://www.ea.com/en-au/games/battlefield/battlefield-2042/news/battlefield-briefing-progression-and-cosmetics

Inside the map

Image

[mental stone]

when beta drops someone please help me with the video settings. I don't need grainy textures in my $60 game with no campaign

[wooden tusk]

only if it can run amogus in 4k

[shadow summit]

https://youtu.be/UdA6V5PIEFw?t=43

look at this

[mental stone]

ohhh shit

[shadow summit]

it says 8-9

[arctic grove]

it is lol i think they messed up on what should be recomended lol

Weird dates.

[timber flint]

I know but check the map image in the top of the post https://www.ea.com/en-au/games/battlefield/battlefield-2042/news/battlefield-briefing-progression-and-cosmetics

[arctic grove]

Why not just make it a full week

[mental stone]

bruh

[proven chasm]

2days or 4 days

[timber flint]

The post came after the video

[shadow summit]

a video is less likely to miss type the date than some dude off twitter

[arctic grove]

Like battlefield 1

[shadow summit]

announcing lol

[mental stone]

@shadow summit got the link for halo insider ?

[shadow summit]

Ye so whos right then lol

[timber flint]

Dude it’s the ea website https://www.ea.com/en-au/games/battlefield/battlefield-2042/news/battlefield-briefing-progression-and-cosmetics

[shadow summit]

ye thanks

[timber flint]

Not some random dude and the post came after the video @shadow summit

[arctic grove]

like ryzen 5 3600 is better then the ryzen 7 they recomend

[mental stone]

🙏

[mental stone]

wtf

[shadow summit]

ur actin like i linked a unofficial channel for battlefield lol.. both says different things

[arctic grove]

yep lol

[mental stone]

need to call linus for that

[timber flint]

I’m just saying that EA posted the video before posting the website post so if you check the dates the post is the newer one

[proven chasm]

why is no one here when good news but when bad its packed

[shadow summit]

thats what im saying, 2 announcements are conflicting..

[proven chasm]

[timber flint]

Just wait and see

[shadow summit]

it being the latest post doesnt negate that the older one says it differently and is wrong lol

[mental stone]

tom henderson was the one to leak the open beta date right ? if he is.... massive chad

[timber flint]

I never said that but being the later is the newer post could also mean that it would be the 10th

We will see

[proven chasm]

Let me get some coffee

[mental stone]

☕

here you go

[shadow summit]

i mean i want ur post to be right and not mine lol, it just seemed that u were leading to it thats all

[timber flint]

But even than it’s 2 days

As 8-9 is 2 days not 1

[crimson minnow]

You guy really miss modern battlefield?

[timber flint]

And including the pre date it’s 4

[crimson minnow]

I play battlefield v as my first battlefield game

[mental stone]

yes

[crimson minnow]

I started gaming in 2020

[mental stone]

i played bf4 as my first bf game and bf1 as my second game

[crimson minnow]

Because my parent bought me a PC for online classes

[knotty citrus]

[crimson minnow]

When did you start gaming?

[timber flint]

[mental stone]

[shadow summit]

[mental stone]

[haughty cipher]

Man. I have an AMD Ryzen 5 3600 and a GeForce RTX 2060. I hope I can run this game well.😄

[timber flint]

I’m working just took holiday on that week

[vast flame]

youll be fine bb

[graceful island]

So much for testing a VPN to download the Beta early LOL it doesn't work that way.

[vast flame]

I got the same specs

[mental stone]

can yo pc run amogoose ? if yes then ofc it will run

[haughty cipher]

What is this ?

[timber flint]

Of course not as it releases at the same time world wide

[vast flame]

dont tell em

[graceful island]

It's not worth the effort tbh, just being patient is less then a headache.

[mental stone]

amogus

among us

sussy baka

[haughty cipher]

HHahahahahhahahhahaha

[graceful island]

really, they release at the same time world wide,

[timber flint]

It does not release earlier anywhere

[graceful island]

I thought games were rolling launches.

[haughty cipher]

This game my watch can run it

[mental stone]

[broken nacelle]

Say if I preorder the standard can I upgrade to gold later

[arctic grove]

idk

[mental stone]

simple.......play bf2042 when it comes out and then play halo infinite on dec 8

ez as that

[mental stone]

idk bout that man

[arctic grove]

i ordered standard but i wanna get refund to upgrade later but idk if i can just upgrade

[proud scarab]

Alriiiight. So nice not seeing so many upset people in here. 😂

[mental stone]

i bought gold as it is the best deal and you ain't missing out on anything

[proud scarab]

Ultimate x3

The Hype is real my dudes

Tee Hee

[proven chasm]

almost broke my pulse 3d headset in time for beta wow

[graceful island]

Don't do that lol

My 5800X will be giving a good test

dang it I keep saying it wrong

[proven chasm]

I had to attach the cushion back I dropped it in my kitchen getting coffee

[graceful island]

Artics 7 Wireless Thumping from BF2042 woofing music

[timber flint]

Got the article pro with gamerDAC

What great headphones

[proven chasm]

I saw those at gamestop are they white

[graceful island]

Only Distance and microwave can stop my cans

[proven chasm]

no way you bought for all current gens

[shadow summit]

i hope dice nails animations, gunsound and gunplay for 2042.

[timber flint]

Who here got a 30series ?

[proud scarab]

Eh?

[green talon]

i hope my 750 ti 2gb, 8gigs of standard ram and i5-4570, 2tb 2010 old hard drive can get the job done

hopes are high people

👍

[graceful island]

I hope all the nichs and rough spots are better in the Beta, Alpha was actually the best Alpha I have seen from a game in the past 5 years.

[shadow summit]

idk if anyone here plays EFT but damn.. that game spoiled me so much, going back to other fps games.. it feels so weightless and "easier"

[timber flint]

🙈8gb of ram

[shadow summit]

if u got more 1gb internet speed, i heard nvidia and stadia are a good option if ur pc cant run it lol

[graceful island]

I had a 750Ti.........I decided to not even try running BF1 with that card.

I waited till I got my 1070Ti

[green talon]

no

i have no other choice

ill MAKE it run

this baby can handle pressure

[timber flint]

It won’t run it

[green talon]

ill die trying

this baby will explode

shits about to get real

[graceful island]

may have to run it at 128x72

[timber flint]

No just hot

[real ether]

damn

[graceful island]

I still have my EVGA GTX 460 FTW 1 GB, should I try that just for fun LOL

[timber flint]

It will be a Tetris game @green talon

[graceful island]

The game probably won't even launch, the error message is the benchmark lol

[timber flint]

Anyone should have at least 16gb of ram in 2021

That’s like minimum

[graceful island]

I thought even 8 GB of VRAM is insane, but it's actually needed for 4K lol

[proud scarab]

https://tenor.com/view/star-trek-star-trek-tos-sulu-explode-computer-gif-18131061

[shadow summit]

anyone else missed the single player for battlefield? every title after bf4, shit so wack

[graceful island]

Mr. Sulu, transfer all power to Core and Mem Clock

[shadow summit]

theres no story just u doing random scenarios lol

[graceful island]

sparks

[carmine mulch]

BFH campaign was nice

[timber flint]

32gb of ram should be standard today

[graceful island]

"I don't think so sir"

"what happned"

"The PCB just burned a hole"

[green talon]

upgrading pcs is a sham

thats why ive been using the same build for over 6 ears

years*

and i wont lie gentlemen

[timber flint]

😅🤣

[green talon]

it has run every game smoothly

[timber flint]

Sure

[green talon]

i play warzone, albeit at 50 fps lock and all low settings

but im having a good time

[timber flint]

Tetris smooth

😅🤣

[green talon]

cba to upgrade every year and waste money

I'm from Pakistan.

Those dollars go real high when you convert.

if i somehow manage to run bf2042 on 750 ti

i might as well just run for president

[timber flint]

It won’t happen

[graceful island]

I played on a Core2 Quad with the GTX 460 and changing Windows 7 from Aero Theme to Classic Theme actually gained me 15 FPS.

[green talon]

@_@

[proven chasm]

orbital is my last favorite map

[green talon]

evo7force

[timber flint]

And if so you be running a Tetris kinda stutter game

[green talon]

how much are nvidia paying you

huh

[graceful island]

it was that weak of a system

[proud scarab]

I’ve been avoiding looking at the maps for 2042

Which one is orbital again?

[timber flint]

Nothing but I would never play a game under 100fps

[graceful island]

I bet Orbital is the Beta Map

[timber flint]

That’s my standard

[green talon]

uve never been forced to

[graceful island]

its Iconic to the sneak peeks

[green talon]

youll bend, youll stoop

[timber flint]

Otherwise I can just buy Tetris

[green talon]

when you get hit

by the force

[proud scarab]

It... is

[timber flint]

Just get a laptop

[graceful island]

Orbital is a huge map judging by the distance from the launch pad in some camera angles.

[green talon]

ride or die

family

[graceful island]

I always wanted room to flank, I guess these maps finally got my answer to the solution to bottlenecking, camping, kill zone, etc.

No Metro lol

[green talon]

im worried about snipers

im not worried about my 750 ti, im worried about snipers!

[graceful island]

Tee Hee, they hide in the bushes

[timber flint]

Operation lockers 24h

[green talon]

yes

im afraid ill get picked off

at 200km

[timber flint]

That’s what I need

[graceful island]

I am like, I would be crawling in these bushes the entire match Tee Hee

[proud scarab]

I just wanna make people break 70 dollar controllers in my Abrams.

[graceful island]

that's my playstyle

[placid rover]

i got a i5 6600 and im worried cuz battlefield kinda cpu dependent

[arctic grove]

Respect bro

[green talon]

youre good to go, ive got a i54570

[green talon]

respect

[arctic grove]

ballin on a budget

[graceful island]

This is why I grabbed my 5800X during the Newegg deal that happend a few days ago. was super limited time only.

[timber flint]

Not even looking forward to noobs camping in bushes with flir scopes and mgs

[graceful island]

lowest price it ever was

[arctic grove]

My spanish teacher is a general manager at best buy and gets be good deals

[green talon]

@__@

[arctic grove]

[green talon]

lord

wow

btw

whats up with these specialists

[arctic grove]

idk they suck

[green talon]

i dont wanna be bob

[graceful island]

Now it will allow my 1070Ti to go to Maximum Warp 9.975

[green talon]

i want to be a soldier

[arctic grove]

they need to stick with classes

[green talon]

i wont lie

i dont care about the popular opinion

[arctic grove]

1070ti is a good card

[green talon]

when i saw the assassination or special move or w/e

i lowered my head in depression

[arctic grove]

lmaoo

[green talon]

it sank into my hands

[timber flint]

The 3rd party takedown looks dog sht

[green talon]

involuntarily

[graceful island]

I could go to warp 9.990 but the card would say "Warning! approching critical velocity!" "Hull breach in 30 seconds"

[arctic grove]

i dont like the idea of a mckay killing another mckay

[timber flint]

3erd person takedown looks so bad

[green talon]

ya ya the takedown

btw can someone help clear this confusion up

it wont matter if i buy bf2042 on origin or steam right

[arctic grove]

sure what is ity

[green talon]

cuz both will have same servers

[arctic grove]

no

ya

i go origin

but regret it

[green talon]

why

[arctic grove]

cause steam is surpreme

[green talon]

yes thats true

but what about the sentimental aspect

dont u want to buy an ea game from origin?

[arctic grove]

but all my other bfs are on origin

[green talon]

like all the other battlefields?

precisely!

[arctic grove]

i wanna keep them all in one place

[green talon]

steam has sales tho

[graceful island]

https://youtu.be/bEubHdHRbSU?t=153

[green talon]

hehehehehhe

[graceful island]

"warp 5"

[green talon]

lmao

[arctic grove]

lmaooo

[green talon]

the stakes are high

[arctic grove]

so should i refund origin and buy through steam?

[green talon]

idk man

[graceful island]

Could be all of us if GPU prices don't come down soon, our warranties are probably expiring

mine already has

our plasma injectors are at critical temp

[green talon]

yeah

true

[arctic grove]

my spanish teacher is a general manger at best buy, so I get the good deals on gpus llmaoooo

[graceful island]

"We got to slow down captain, she'll blow!"

[arctic grove]

lmaooo

water cool the 1070 lmaooo

[graceful island]

"reset to factory clock"

[green talon]

whats the minimum spec

1 sec wheres the list

[graceful island]

I have the EVGA 1070Ti FTW Ultra Silent

[arctic grove]

so @green talon all my bfs so far are in origin, but origin sucks, so should i get 2042 in steam or in origin

[graceful island]

with the Power Link for clean power

[green talon]

The GIGABYTE windforce GTX 750 Ti 2GB OC Edition

the beast of the esat

[green talon]

steam

a new era, bumbling yeti

[arctic grove]

hm ok

[green talon]

we must inaugurate that new era in a new fashion

by buying bf on steam

[arctic grove]

well

ok then ig

[pseudo nebula]

Bought there

[arctic grove]

@green talon how do i refund a game in origin

[green talon]

wait wait wait

[arctic grove]

yes

[green talon]

bf2042?

[arctic grove]

[green talon]

my god

[arctic grove]

should i refund then buy in steam

[green talon]

looks like ur spanish teacher is one hell of a general manager

[arctic grove]

nope

[green talon]

yeah u should refund

how do u refund on origin tho

[arctic grove]

kk

[green talon]

idk

never done it

[arctic grove]

idsk either

google time

[pseudo nebula]

Well that depends, if you are like me and use steam a LOT then teah

[green talon]

i will admit

the friend system i nsteam is way bettte

better*

than origin

so if u got a lot of friends playing bf2042

[arctic grove]

origin has a bad glitch where u appear offline to your friends

[green talon]

then steam is a good option

[arctic grove]

ya i was just saying its so bad on origin

[crimson dragon]

ffs thje beta is right in my exams

[pseudo nebula]

Steam also may have trading cards, profile stuff, achievements

[green talon]

haha

[crimson dragon]

my only chance to beta

[pseudo nebula]

Same

[green talon]

you must sacrifice

the exams

[crimson dragon]

WHY

[fading fossil]

@crimson dragon Is there any way I can help you out

[green talon]

i dont make the rules man

[crimson dragon]

bruh my parents are ASIAN they will kill me

[drifting cave]

beta is right when my brothers court is damn

[graceful island]

Beta gametime for Gold and Ultimate is double the standard edition.

[arctic grove]

i have to wait to refund until 14 days till launch

[green talon]

understandable, good day

[graceful island]

Gold and Ultimate, you have all week pretty much, Standard, just the weekend.

[green talon]

oooh

[arctic grove]

ya its gay

[vagrant crag]

Is the beta requirements same for the main game

[fading fossil]

prob

[arctic grove]

yes

[crimson dragon]

AAND my xbox live is expired fock

[green talon]

14 days

for a refund

thats not bad

[wide shore]

Hopefully they extend the beta for some brownie points. But I intend to no life it

[graceful island]

But only 64 players, not the full 128.

[green talon]

what is the voip gonna be like

[vagrant crag]

I have rtx 2070 and ryzen 2700x for 1440p ho much fps can I expect with high settings

[graceful island]

But the more people play, the more data they have.

[green talon]

talk tosquad mates etc

[green talon]

300

bare minimum

[vagrant crag]

300....

Bruh no way

[green talon]

sounds like you have no faith in your system

[green talon]

why buy

w/o faith

[vagrant crag]

Bfv runs at 70fps

[green talon]

wat

[arctic grove]

like 40

[green talon]

how can that be

[graceful island]

is Battlefield CPU bound too? when I upgraded my CPU, it made a difference from a 4690K to a 1700X at 1080p

[vagrant crag]

Iirc battlefield 5 has rly bad cpu optimization

[arctic grove]

he said high settings

[wide shore]

People be like “I hope this game runs well” and have a 2070

[arctic grove]

i have a 5800x and a 3070 and dont get 300 frames on max settings wioth rtx on bfv

[graceful island]

1700X 1070Ti here, soon a 5800X and a 1070Ti.

[vagrant crag]

How much u get

[arctic grove]

with rtx?

[green talon]

this is me with my 750 ti

[arctic grove]

or without

[green talon]

disappearing from the conversation

https://giphy.com/gifs/the-simpsons-scared-homer-simpson-jUwpNzg9IcyrK

[vagrant crag]

Both and with resolution

[arctic grove]

with rtx 120

1440p

without rtx like 220

[vagrant crag]

Oh damn

I get I think 100 without rtx

[arctic grove]

but thats a 3070 too

[graceful island]

I was debaiting on bringing out my 24 inch 1080p 144hz monitor again, I am currently on a 28 inch 4K 60hz panel right now.

[arctic grove]

100 fps is way more then enough

if im above 60 im happy

[cobalt breach]

5600X with 3080Ti, reaching around 120 medium with RTX on at 4k60

if we need a reference

[unique nebula]

I hate being below 100

[vagrant crag]

As far it's stable

[unique nebula]

fps

[graceful island]

damin now I need a 3080Ti LOL

[unique nebula]

60 is choppy compared to 100

[vagrant crag]

Anyway how do I get open beta

[arctic grove]

as long as the frame rate is consistent and above 60 im good

[frigid belfry]

GTX 1080 32 ram? Will it run fellas?

[arctic grove]

closed beta u have to re order, open beta u just downlad

[cobalt breach]

honestly, anytthing above a 3060 will run it well at 1440

[vagrant crag]

Do I just check battlefield 2042 page on steam on oct8

[vagrant crag]

Can I pre load it for open beta

[unique nebula]

I have a 5900x lying around in a box it's unopened, but I'm not gonna use it because I'm waiting for the 12900k

[primal current]

Oh this might be painful for me lol

[jolly gulch]

kannan xD?

[unique nebula]

I have a 2080 ti rn

[vagrant crag]

Bubii!!!

[feral cargo]

I’m yawning

[cobalt breach]

1080p can be done with lower end cards honestly

[frigid belfry]

A game like Battlefield but in VR exists 💀

Runs horribly

[vagrant crag]

[cobalt breach]

just....turn off the eye candy

[pseudo nebula]

4 inches is nothing (sry guys)

[cobalt breach]

the ones that usually fuck people over

are stuff like HBAO+

[pseudo nebula]

Use the 24 144

[frigid belfry]

Antialiasing is something I need but it makes my games run way slower.

[feral cargo]

Just buy a top tier gpu. Problem solved

[unique nebula]

rtx 3060/6600xt is kinda hefty ngl

scared for my 2080 ti

[cobalt breach]

[frigid belfry]

1080 gang.

[cobalt breach]

2080ti will run it fine

[unique nebula]

I might not be able to run at 120 fps without lowering my settings

if I buy 3080 ti we'll see the 4080 ti next year

[cobalt breach]

i'll probably stick with the 3080Ti for the next 4 years or so

[feral cargo]

3080ti is so last year

[primal current]

I’ll probably live I have a 2080ti I’m just more concerned because I have a ultra wide monitor and they don’t really like each other

[cobalt breach]

bruh

3080ti is this year

lmao

[frigid belfry]

The average big-rig fan vs the average low-end enjoyer

[feral cargo]

No, this year is 3080s

[cobalt breach]

wait

[unique nebula]

ngl ampere is a shit architecture

[primal current]

next year

[unique nebula]

turing was way better

more efficient

[graceful island]

I almost forgot, I have my secret weapon, a Samsung Odyssey G9, I almost forgot I had that. My Dad recently passed away, he just got it less then 4 months before he went. I guess its mine now.....I haven't used it for almost a year now.

[cobalt breach]

to be fair, ampere is probably the test bed for the 4 series

so...

[unique nebula]

ampere is all about pumping a lot of wattage in and hoping for the best

and it runs an inefficient pathway

[cobalt breach]

you're looking at a power --> efficiency tick tock cycle

[graceful island]

would 5120x1440 run a bit easier then 4K?

[frigid belfry]

[primal current]

I’ve got a normal g9

[cobalt breach]

yeah. UW screens are a bitch

[primal current]

I think

Actually I’m not sure

G9 gang tho

[feral cargo]

Pro gamer tip

[unique nebula]

I don't think the 2080 ti will achieve much with the g9

not at all

[primal current]

all worth it for the racing games tho

[frigid belfry]

Halo Infinite looks fantastic, because it's proven that it now is, BF2042 is looking pretty good so far. The only concern for 2021-2022 gaming is DL2.

[unique nebula]

the 240hz isn't achieved

[cobalt breach]

fair en ough

[unique nebula]

it's a waste of refresh rate

[graceful island]

Tee Hee, I got my Cousins a Septre 19 inch 1600x900 monitors as a first gaming monitor. not bad for 120 dollars.

[cobalt breach]

i'm using a dell ultrasharp lmao

[graceful island]

Those are tiny compared to what I am used to seeing

[frigid belfry]

The Witcher: 4 looks pretty sweet.

[cobalt breach]

U2420Q

[frigid belfry]

[primal current]

other problem with uw is that a ton of games don’t like it either

Like gta v in uw is super scuffed lol

[cobalt breach]

@720*

[feral cargo]

Hot take - G9s are over rated, it’s all about those 38” ultra wides with more vertical real estate. G9 is too thin

[cobalt breach]

aegbiqer

[primal current]

[cobalt breach]

i'm waiting for the bloody LG 27GP950 to come in stock

those things don't exist

[frigid belfry]

Turn some aspects off. Most BF games let you.

[unique nebula]

nope

[high fractal]

What specs is ps5 comparable to pc

[unique nebula]

probably like a 2070 super last time i checked

[primal current]

Bf actually works fine with it lol

[frigid belfry]

Fr

[graceful island]

Now they have a Oddessy with nanopixles or some damn thing

[primal current]

just some older games are a mess

[feral cargo]

lg 38gn950g gang gang

[high fractal]

That’s cool

[primal current]

From what I’ve seen yea

[frigid belfry]

Funny messes.

[primal current]

Indeed

[cobalt breach]

I need my colour accuracy for work, and multi screen.

[graceful island]

Micro LED LOL

[feral cargo]

Quality of G9 is kaput

[graceful island]

what is that

idk but I got a chance to play Doom 2016 and Halo 4 on it, sweeter then I expected.

[frigid belfry]

Yeah sex is cool'n all, but you ever orgasmed to BF2042's beta trailer?

[graceful island]

before I had to move it

[cobalt breach]

y'know, it's blasphemy

but i haven't preordered 2042

not after the shitstorm that was BFV

[frigid belfry]

Smart one.

I am not.

[graceful island]

Its just Ludacris , who needs a screen that big you know LOL

[high fractal]

Just do it man preorder

[cobalt breach]

i haven't trusted EA with it since

[graceful island]

Dad had a racing sim setup, this is why he bought that ultrawide lol

[frigid belfry]

I smell men. Brb

[graceful island]

RSeat chair and all

[rose cairn]

btw from the pc system reqs hows does amd cpu need min 6 cores, 12 threads while intel cpu only need 4 cores and 4 threads? this for me does make zero sense.. also Dice is recommending 8 core, 16 thread cpu from amd while only 4 core, 8 thread one from intel..

[graceful island]

I still haven't built it yet

[cobalt breach]

optimisation

[graceful island]

I will get it built once the snow flies and I am bored working on outdoor stuff.

[worthy inlet]

Core speed

[cobalt breach]

my 5600X will struggle

[rose cairn]

basically same across the board

[cobalt breach]

according to that spec sheet

[rose cairn]

very minimal differences

[graceful island]

Once the snow flies, the racing sim and Odyssey G9 will be up.

Nothing better to do anyway lol

I don't snowmobile

[rose cairn]

no you'll be fine, 5600x is way better than 2700x

[graceful island]

I game more in the winter then any other season

[rose cairn]

only minus is that it has 2 cores less

[cobalt breach]

i only upgraded it this year

from a 1600

lmao

[high fractal]

Can my ps2 run bf 2042?

[worthy inlet]

Amd have only started being good with ryzen whereas the good old 4790K is still going strong

[graceful island]

I went from a 1700 to a 5800

[arctic grove]

Is it possible to expect 60 FPS with minimum recquirements and everything on low ?

[rose cairn]

shouldn't be worse since the intel cpus have 4 cores

[cobalt breach]

lower your resolution

always helps

[graceful island]

I had a 4690K it was a good chip

[worthy inlet]

Won't help if there's a CPU bottleneck

[graceful island]

before that I had a QX6700 LOL

[cobalt breach]

or that

[unique nebula]

the fps difference between the 3080 ti and 2080 ti is a lot more than I expected

[graceful island]

Not from brand new, rescued from a old server

[worthy inlet]

Me too ay damn good chip

[arctic grove]

Yeah thx for the advice, I'll do it if needed

[cobalt breach]

my first proper PC was only a E8200

[unique nebula]

I might buy the 3080 ti then buy the 4080 ti too

[cobalt breach]

eh

3080ti is just 3090 with 12GB less VRAM

[worthy inlet]

No need to spend more money to upgrade from my 2080ti imo

[graceful island]

I miss my GTX 460 sometimes, for the price, it was damn good performance for the time in 2010.

[rose cairn]

personally i think there is something iffy with the amd cpu specs, i think from the leaks they had amd fx-8350 cpu in the playtest

[cobalt breach]

oh yeah

i had the 460 too

really worth the $300

[graceful island]

people even got two GTX 460s since they were so damn cheap back then.

But that was when SLI was game changing, but since SLI wasn't viable anymore, that's when GPU prices started to increase over time.

Till the nut case we have today

Everything moved up a tier since the Ti's came out.

[rose cairn]

i'm just wondering how there is the amd or intel cpu in the minimum when for example in the 64 core speed the difference between them is way over 100%

[cobalt breach]

probably runnin CPU heavy stuff

[graceful island]

sometimes I find my system requirements between the Intel and AMD recommendations lol.

like not equivilant to Nvidia, but faster then the AMD recommendation.

wierd

[cobalt breach]

you mean intel

yeah, the specs are funky

[rose cairn]

i think the amd cpu should be min amd ryzen 5 1600 and not 3600

seems just weird

[pseudo nebula]

Requirements are looking scary. Lets hope they are exagerated

[graceful island]

i7 4790 Intel (Haswell) for recommended for BF2042 but shows a 2700X for AMD LOL

The Intel is several gens behind lol

[arctic grove]

Is it worth to upgrade my cpu but keep my actual gpu for low settings ? I don't know how it works in Battlefield but on quake champions, the gpu isn't that much important when playing on low so you could significantly improve FPS just with a new cpu

I have a i7 6700k and GTX 980

[next onyx]

!!specs

!specs

[tender pendant]

Currently there are no official PC specifications released by DICE for the full release of Battlefield 2042.

[pseudo nebula]

I think you are fine

[next onyx]

Bot is so slow I dunno which command works...

[cobalt breach]

GPU is probably the bigger factor in BF

[rose cairn]

seems just weird when the 64 core speed difference between those min cpus is 144%

[next onyx]

Your gpu could use an upgrade, that being said you should be alright

[rose cairn]

also the ryzen average score is 24% higher than the intel one

[cobalt breach]

yeah

don't upgrade to what could be a disappointing game

[graceful island]

Yeah, I upgraded my CPU to a 5800X because that's all I can do right now LOL.

GPU is out of the question atm

[arctic grove]

Ok thank you for the information 👍

[rose cairn]

which gpu you have?

[graceful island]

I have seen other games struggle, so I need an upgrade the 1700X is 4 years going on 5

1070Ti

[cobalt breach]

yeah, first gen ryzens are struggling

[rose cairn]

1070ti that still good for 1080p gaming

[cobalt breach]

i couldn't even get 60FPS constant on a 1600 even in final fantasy XIV

[next onyx]

You should be fine

[cobalt breach]

the bottleneck was real

[graceful island]

Could take me a few more builds to max out the Odyssey G9 at 240hz LOL

10 Series can only do 144hz on that panel only GTX 20 series and newer can do 240hz

[cobalt breach]

ugh

where the fuck is my 27GP950

[rose cairn]

depends on the game

[graceful island]

I am somewhat future proofed in the monitor department in my opinion.

[rose cairn]

rocket league or cs go don't need that much for 240fps

[pseudo nebula]

Weird that the 1700 struggles, are you trying to reach more than 60fps?

[graceful island]

I am on my 4K panel now, only getting 50 FPS in BF1

back on my 24 inch 144hz 1080p monitor I get over 100 FPS

its that intense, 4K is lol

[pseudo nebula]

Oh 4k. Then yeah. Go 2k man

1080p is awesome too at 120+hz

[graceful island]

5120 x 1440 vs 4K

Didn't get a clear answer in my research

1080p is fine, but games are starting to get "blurry" for me.

I max them out, and they still look not as eye candy.

[pseudo nebula]

Yeah antialising doesnt cut it

Its blurry in most games

[graceful island]

its like trying to game on a CRT today, it's just at an impass.

[pseudo nebula]

But 2k 60fps is not bad

[graceful island]

I may just get another 4K 28 inch panel like this and put it on my "work from home" desk or something.

its great for getting work done

You can fit a ton of smaller windows on a 4K screen

Gaming not so much, at least not yet.

I will keep revisiting 4K each upgrade I do.

[raw vale]

my ryzen 3 3100 and 1650super preparing to sweat next week

Portal

[graceful island]

2142 was the bomb

[acoustic sail]

My rtx 3080ti will be happy

🙂

[graceful island]

1070Ti will make a run for it's money

But you will still match my speed, I am at maximum warp

[acoustic sail]

gags

[graceful island]

you can slip past me and lock on a tractor beam and tow me while at warp. lol

[acoustic sail]

I was once in the 1080 life

When I was a kid ;P

gags

[amber zephyr]

Good morning, will South Africa have BF2042 servers?

[acoustic sail]

Sorry, I only speak rtx

I don't speak gtx

[amber zephyr]

@arctic grove kak antwoord

[safe verge]

Hey fellas

I've been waiting for that beta ngl

In the meantime I've been racking up hours on Battlefield 1

I'm pretty good, i tend to stream it while i play

[graceful island]

Are we allowed to record footage of the beta?

[safe verge]

I'm going to stream it on twitch

[amber zephyr]

@graceful island Only if there are South African servers.

[dreamy hornet]

i hope we see some INFANTRY only servers without tanks and planes

[safe verge]

(feel free to come by)

👉🏻👈🏻

[dreamy hornet]

tanks are FUCKING annoying
giving these no skill bozos a means to get kills

[graceful island]

I plan on seeing how the bushes and see if I can get some long range kills too.

[safe verge]

Bf1 tanks are fun

But BfV tanks are tight

[graceful island]

BF1 tanks are fun, but only so many per match,

I cry when I can't get one

I don't get BF1's tank spawn system at all

[safe verge]

If you're on Operations, mortar truck is goated

[graceful island]

Like it only allows a certain number at once, and the cooldown, is insane.

[safe verge]

That is, if you're pushing

[amber zephyr]

The freaking sniper operator is South African, there has to be South African servers.

[safe verge]

I played this really great defensive match of operations the other day

It was on St. Quentin Scar

[amber zephyr]

I ask everyone from EA/DICE, everyone says, don't know, not my department, man.

[safe verge]

We won at the last sector

[amber zephyr]

It's like the movie Brazil.

[white geyser]

I killed too many enemy players using the mortar truck back in BF1, good times.

[dreamy hornet]

boomstick moments

sadly it takes two boomsticks to destroy a tank

[amber zephyr]

It's like puke in a tumbledryer.

[safe verge]

I want battlefield 1's atmosphere to return

[amber zephyr]

@safe verge ..to South African servers, yes.

[safe verge]

But most of the maps on that game are designed around operations

So it will be interesting to see if they can pull it off

[arctic grove]

some of the 2042 camos look sick

[safe verge]

I still just want generic soldiers

Just choose the specialist class for them

So i can use McKay's kit with my soldier i made myself

Make it interesting

[amber zephyr]

They made a South African operator, surely the country did cross their minds, we need servers down here.

We can't battlefield down here without barrelfierld servers.

[arctic grove]

now the UK isn't apart if the EU. will we get our own servers

[amber zephyr]

@arctic grove Good! That will teach you.

[safe verge]

You fellas just need more south Africans to get battlefield

The more battlefield players, the more servers

[amber zephyr]

@safe verge BF is a religion down here, we have players.

[safe verge]

[amber zephyr]

I just hope some doos from EA didn't do cost cutting or something.

[arctic grove]

@amber zephyr you like Die antwoord?

[amber zephyr]

Andrew Wilson is an aussie, they hate us, so that has me worried.

Codemasters made Jonah Lomu Rugby, the greatest game in existence, they'd give South Africa servers.

[amber zephyr]

@arctic grove Did when I was younger, they got too wierd and blasphemous.

Does this beta not collide with the Halo Infinite one?

No wait I'm stupid, I think the Halo stuff is this weekend.

[arctic grove]

Yup

[zealous needle]

Is the beta crossplay?

[amber zephyr]

@zealous needle Great question, I imagine it will? Tough to get answers.

[proven chasm]

I would assume

I like sand maps but I’ll be ok with this for the beta definitely will be a true beta instead

Grass map

👀 no one familiar

[arctic grove]

only 1 map in the Beta?

orbital?

[warm dagger]

yes

[blissful sonnet]

File size for the Open Beta?

[proven chasm]

Idk I only have Cold War downloaded

Squid game

[arctic grove]

Coldwar is dog shit

[amber zephyr]

@blissful sonnet There's a guy on twitter called playstationsize, follow him he'll broadcast the size soon I think

[arctic grove]

around 50gb id say

[amber zephyr]

around 3,50

[arctic grove]

Legend says if you uninstall it your mental health recovery gets a buff

seriously 100gb?

[pseudo nebula]

100gb

[hidden sand]

Temporyal is gonna have a field day

[pseudo nebula]

Yeah, confirmed by open beta requirements

[arctic grove]

good job i uninstalled woldwar

coldwar*

[hidden sand]

I'm starting to think they're having us download the full game

Actually

That literally has to be the case

[arctic grove]

RIP to my harddrive in full release

[amber zephyr]

Cold War isn't that bad, it's good good maps now.

[pseudo nebula]

Most of it yeah

Maybe the game is 70-80.

[hidden sand]

Betas for them are always a separate branch, it doesn't make sense why its that huge

[amber zephyr]

Cold War also has SOUTH AFRICAN servers, which is what I'd like to know if BF2042 will have.

[pseudo nebula]

I think that the full game plus portal plus hazard will be 150gb

Minimum

[upbeat ice]

[arctic grove]

ill buy an external drive if thats the case

[hidden sand]

I'm not complaining but it does make me wonder if they are having their hand forced and are using the full game instead

[amber zephyr]

That Portal thing might be big, lots of assets.

[hidden sand]

With the delay it'd make sense

[pseudo nebula]

That can affect performance, unless you dump on the external and install bf on your main

[amber zephyr]

@arctic grove It has a lot of maps now, and SBMM does not bother me personally.

@arctic grove I don't know, I only play the normal ones.

I think they added prophunt, I know my brother loves to play that.

I want a zombie server in portal

"Zombie" meaning, night time, storm, small amount of geared players vs everyone else with melee

[arctic grove]

good idea

[next onyx]

https://youtu.be/6x1OysIe89g

Like this

[arctic grove]

on the huge city map

[pseudo nebula]

Hell you can even do it with bots even if they can be modified

[pseudo nebula]

Something like that yeah

[amber zephyr]

Probably depends how advanced those bots are.

I played Halo Infinite against bots last weekend, really impressive stuff.

[signal basin]

Just get a PC

So why would you use a mouse and keyboard on console.

That's massively unfair.

[worldly star]

yes

[proud frigate]

Why would anyone use a mouse and keyboard on console

One of the stupidest things you can do

[worldly star]

because its all they have?

[pseudo nebula]

750 for 1660 wtf

[amber zephyr]

@wise wigeon my buddy also plays like that, kb/m

[proud frigate]

The controller comes with the console my guy

[worldly star]

the ps5 will play the game at 4k 60 fps so idk why its such a huge deal

[worldly star]

controller sucks for fps games

[proud frigate]

Look at warzone

[worldly star]

no

i dont want to

[proud frigate]

Yes

[amber zephyr]

@worldly star You should prefix statements with, "in my opinion"

[pseudo nebula]

I hope

[amber zephyr]

otherwise people will think you're a spaz, mate

[worldly star]

in my opinion, you should shut the hell up

[pseudo nebula]

I play on pc but if consoles get better pc games get better

[worldly star]

if someone wants to use keyboard and mouse on console, why not let them

[amber zephyr]

lol

[worldly star]

theres no reason not to

[arctic grove]

i play MW controller

CW K&M

only because its easier

Battlefield has always been a controller game

[amber zephyr]

That's DEFINITELY your opinion, haha

[signal basin]

[worldly star]

looking at the controls

definitely a kb+m favoring game

[arctic grove]

typed wrong

[worldly star]

and thats not an opinion, thats a fact

[arctic grove]

i mean on console

you cant play K&M

[amber zephyr]

Played the crap out of BF2 on PC back in the day.

[worldly star]

who uses a dpad for a grenade

[arctic grove]

No one cause thats not the binding:joy

😂

[worldly star]

yes it is

[arctic grove]

Dpad for nade

[worldly star]

not joking

[arctic grove]

WTAF

[amber zephyr]

That's weird.

[arctic grove]

it should be LB

[worldly star]

also theres no plus menu on controller

at least not in those diagrams

[amber zephyr]

If they moved grenade to dpad, it means grenades won't be prominent this time around.

[arctic grove]

there must be a legacy setting

Dpad for nade will be aids

be like playing crysis again

[frank stratus]

100 gb

[amber zephyr]

@arctic grove Could be that grenades aren't emphasized in gameplay, they probably want to avoid grenade spam on 120+ player servers, makes sense.

So likely a very slow recharge / rearm / inventory size of nades.

[arctic grove]

fair enough

but atleast add a legacy controller option

[proud frigate]

There was litteraly only one game based on controller in mind the rest where catered torwards pc

[arctic grove]

that message was mistyped^

i meant K&M has never been supported on battlefield on console

[amber zephyr]

On Warzone, the PC guys usually complain that the controller people have the advantage.

[proud frigate]

I think bf2042 is gonna be like warzone but not battle royale

Wich sucks

[amber zephyr]

(They do, lol)

[proud frigate]

And I hope the next isnt

[torpid shuttle]

Any keyboard?

[worldly star]

thats because they suck, its not as bad as they make it seem

[amber zephyr]

@proud frigate If that hazard zone is like tarkov it's going to be awesome in my opinion.

[torpid shuttle]

Thank you

[proud frigate]

That I can agree on

[proud frigate]

This

Is what I meant I can agree on

i dont really care for hazard zone atm

@quiet shell That would be great, it's one map, right?

[wide shore]

It is.

[frank stratus]

yea sure man open beta for pc players is 100 gb

[amber zephyr]

OK cool, 17GB sounds good

But Orbital is probably bigger than 3 BFV maps

One map plus all weapons unlocked

Thats the full game size.
