battlefield-2042

[buoyant nimbus]

not performance oriented as much as pc

desktop I mean

[shell shuttle]

Thanks yall ❤️ I'll start saving some money

[lilac thistle]

1 euro= 10 turkish lira

[shell shuttle]

Yes, 3050 and 3050 Ti

[arctic grove]

laptop is always better

[nova sparrow]

O ok

[arctic grove]

desktops suck

u can use it anywherer

or get ipad mini

or iphone 13

[signal basin]

Meh

[arctic grove]

lmao what

no

laptops are overpriced

heat to the temperature of the sun

[vocal tusk]

They are a troll, ignore the bait

[still vault]

Desktops ftw

[arctic grove]

^

[signal basin]

Laptops are simpler with is nice and take up less room.

[arctic grove]

2x expensive

[signal basin]

If you're like me who lives in a tiny ass house.

[arctic grove]

for the same components

as the desktop

and performance is still worse on laptops

laptop rocks

portability is needed

that's the only thing they bring

[shell shuttle]

They include a keyboard, a touchpad and a monitor, of course they're more expensive 🙂

[signal basin]

My keys are weak asf on my laptop.

[arctic grove]

laptop > desktop

if u only want to game desktop better

[signal basin]

My W key is literally cellotaped together.

[arctic grove]

if its for gaming only desktop

buy a desktop and ipad

gaming desktop

youtube,internet other stuff ipad

[dire quest]

Will 2042 run on my smart fridge?

Jk lol

[trim lance]

@arctic grove duck

[arctic grove]

[trim lance]

[tame cobalt]

Depends how smart your fridge is

[dim blade]

I was off the grid

working on an actual farm

I come back

just found out about the easy anticheat

YESSS

[lilac thistle]

iphone in turkey 10k euro

us too

[arctic grove]

I know you guys probably hate hearing this because you hear it all the time but where can I find the requirements for 2042

[dim blade]

Just google bf2042 system requierments

I cant send links sorry

[torpid shuttle]

Any Maximum PC Requirements?

[arctic grove]

max is recommended

[dim blade]

Torn between buying the standard or the gold edition

[silent cradle]

Gold

[dim blade]

The tearing is my financial situation lmao

[vocal tusk]

Decide after the beta

[dim blade]

those extra 20 euros matter for now

[arctic grove]

standard. i refuse to give EA more money than what they are already getting

[plush plinth]

So Steam or origin?

[burnt kettle]

steam requires origin anyways...

[vocal tusk]

I bought on steam and have the game on origin anyway as a result, not sure it works the otherway though

[burnt kettle]

Nah, if you have it on origin it wont be on steam unless you add it manually

[vocal tusk]

So probably best to buy on steam

[stark cove]

Will the 20€ matter in a month or two? You can get EA Play Premium thing and buy the gold edition a month later

or if you don't care to play a week early just get the 3,99€ ea play thing and buy gold edition later

[vocal tusk]

Get standard for early beta...if you enjoy it and want the weeks early access to the full game, along with the year one pass...upgrade to gold

[broken nacelle]

Only gold and ultimate gives you early access right?

[vocal tusk]

yup

[still vault]

!!eaplaybeta

[tender pendant]

EA Play and EA Play Pro members (including Xbox Game Pass and Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscribers) will have early access to Open Beta and a 10-hour trial of Battlefield 2042 starting on November 12, 2021. https://help.ea.com/en/help/battlefield/battlefield-2042/fight-for-your-future-in-battlefield-2042/

[tame cobalt]

If your pc is better than recommended specs it will explode

[stark cove]

is it possible to upgrade the versions in origin/steam=

thought this isn't possible

[dim blade]

3.99€ to play the beta early

Hmm

tempting

[vocal tusk]

It should be cheaper if you are a first time sub

[dim blade]

Well my origin displays some games with the msg "Your ea play has expired"

So i doubt that's the case

[vocal tusk]

Make a new account

that might do it, but i kinda want my collection on one account xD

ill decide when its time to decide

[vocal tusk]

Oh, that 1 dollar deal is over it seems

[buoyant nimbus]

4 days...4 days!

dun dun dun dunnn

[still vault]

Believe the 1 dollar deal on Origin is still there

[arctic grove]

I might get gamepass...

I am running out of games to play

[dim blade]

Kinda surprised that consoles can't use MKB

on 2042

[vocal tusk]

I doubt they ever will have native support.

[arctic grove]

MKB?

[vocal tusk]

Mouse and keyboard

[dim blade]

mouse and keyboard

[arctic grove]

oh lol, I never heard of that abbreviation before

how lol

idk lol

[dim blade]

You mean the consoles or EA games?

[rain rune]

when's 2042 likely to get a sale after launch

[stable dew]

i have a question. will i be able to play beta if i didn't preorder ?

[vocal tusk]

Most console players dont want to have to play against MKB players when they disable crossplay

[rain rune]

Yeah

[stark cove]

yes

[dim blade]

Yes on 8 and 9

if you pre order you can also play on 6th and 7th

[stable dew]

tnx

[rain rune]

that being said I wonder if I should pre order

[stable dew]

i burned myself with BFV preorder..kinda don't want to do that again

[proper kestrel]

Will we be able to predownload the game before open beta launch?

[dim blade]

I remember playing mkb on console when the PS4 exclusive MW19 beta came out

felt kinda bad just shitting on em

XD

[rain rune]

Same but 2042 looks so genuinely promising

[vocal tusk]

Just get ea play if you want the early beta. Its the cheapest way to double beta playtime and get it early

[plucky sage]

Do we know how many weapons will be in the beta?

[vocal tusk]

Nope

[topaz crown]

I hope console have FOV slider

[rain rune]

You can get ea play through steam right

[broken nacelle]

Yes

[rain rune]

And you get that you get 2042?

[stark cove]

yes

[topaz crown]

Early Access to beta, 10% off

in a year or so probably be ok EA Play itself

[stark cove]

you can pre-order, play the beta early and cancel your pre-order though

[vocal tusk]

You still have to pay full price to preorder, so some might not have the cash for it right now

3.99 > 59.99

Even if you plan on refunding

[rain rune]

So say I get ea play, and then I get 2042, if I cancel my subscription then will I still be able to own the game

[vocal tusk]

No

[rain rune]

Dang

[buoyant nimbus]

lol

that's surprising?

[vocal tusk]

If you cancel, you dont get the game. You could always get EA play....play beta...if you enjoy the beta..use the 10% off any game to preorder the full game.

Spending 3.99 to save 8.99 basically

[still vault]

https://www.ea.com/ea-play

[dim blade]

[broken nacelle]

If you have ea play pro you get to play the ultimate edition version

[stark cove]

yeah I forgot that honestly

[dim blade]

btw my friend was curious

can you play the beta on 6th and 7th with the basic ea play?

[vocal tusk]

Yes

[still vault]

#battlefield-2042 message

[dim blade]

oo, trial

[still vault]

trial is only for the non-pro subscription for the full game, the beta access is full access all the time

[broken nacelle]

Couldn’t I just get ea play pro get the ultimate edition rewards then buy standard and cancel the membership

[vocal tusk]

Probably lol

[dim blade]

fr?

you can cheat the system that easily

okay then

[broken nacelle]

I mean it says you get the rewards

[still vault]

You loose access to the ultimate edition stuff like skins and season pass

[broken nacelle]

Ahh ok

[vocal tusk]

You might lose the skins and season pass access if you arent a pro subscriber though. I doubt they havent thought about that

[still vault]

Normal unlocks like weapons etc. you ofc. keep as they are part of the regular version of the game as well

[vocal tusk]

Its probably worth checking though TBH hahahaha

[nova idol]

I might buy a month of ea play pro in november

Give the game a spin

[vocal tusk]

For all the games you get with EA Pro, it is a pretty good deal

I cant see ea play pro on steam though

[nova idol]

I get regular ea play with game pass ult so im good on that front id just want it to try out 2042

[broken nacelle]

If you go on the website for ea it will ask you what platform

[still vault]

https://store.steampowered.com/subscriptions/ea

hmm, pro might actually not be on there

[vocal tusk]

Only non pro shows for me

[broken nacelle]

Guess you can only get normal on steam

[stark cove]

they did. if your pro subscription ends you'll lose ultimate stuff. (source: me in BFV)

[pastel oriole]

is it possible to play bf 2042 with ea play or ea play pro

[sullen current]

u talking to me?

[burnt kettle]

#battlefield-2042 message

[lilac thistle]

sv is bad

byebye

[pastel oriole]

thx

do we know the gigabyte of the game or beta

[broken nacelle]

100

[pastel oriole]

beta ? or the whole game

[vocal tusk]

It is 16gbs on PS5

[broken nacelle]

It says 100 on the system requirements

[pastel oriole]

100 feels little bit small xD

[molten trout]

beta

[vocal tusk]

100 will be the full game

BFV beta also listed it as needing 50gbs...the size of the full game

[molten trout]

oh

[vocal tusk]

Even though BFV was like...42gb

[broken nacelle]

Battlefield 2042 is gonna have double the players and much larger maps

[tranquil kettle]

bfv was 50gbs at launch?

[vocal tusk]

Storage requirements on PC games rarely list the game size...it is moreso a statement of "Keep this much space free, just incase"

[tranquil kettle]

i mean its 91 gbs rn

[vocal tusk]

New maps and weapons add size

[tranquil kettle]

sure but almost double

the size

[vocal tusk]

Firestorm also wasnt part of the release game, right

Base game has 9 maps IIRC. There were an additional 12 maps, as well as firestorm. So that explains the size TBH

[rain rune]

wouldnt it be funny if.. like... we got bf1/4/v for free at launch, that would be pretty wacky and fun i think

actually didnt bf1 become free to play for a bit when v launched

[molten trout]

they all became free on twitch prime

in sequence

[rain rune]

that was a while ago wasnt it

[molten trout]

yh

couple months back

[brittle edge]

Wass good

Oh

Des chat

[stark cove]

I don't like 80% of the BFV maps :S

my "oh nice" moments are little to none when I see the upcoming map

[tame cobalt]

Is lofoten islands just a small tdm/dom map?

It's not in tactical conquest or strategic conquest afaik

[vocal tusk]

Yes, some of them were recycled war stories areas

[rain rune]

the maps leading up the the end of the game's life cycle were the worst imo

Well only like 2 maps

[vocal tusk]

*Disagrees in Pacific maps

[tame cobalt]

The last 4 are some of the best

[rain rune]

It's all a bit foggy in my head

I very much like Al marj and Al sundan

[arctic grove]

oof

[rain rune]

Provence is a bit of a mixed bag

[vocal tusk]

The last 4 were the best chapter maps IMO, but the playerbase had disappeared by then...the game was on its last legs

[tame cobalt]

First person who likes al sundan

I like al marj too

[rain rune]

I just wished they had updated Narvik for a night map

Considering literally nobody plays grand ops anymore you can't play on night Narvik with all the northern lights

[vocal tusk]

Was Halvoy ever repurposed to anything?

[radiant echo]

Wassap

[vocal tusk]

Thats the firestorm map

[rain rune]

has firestorm died on console yet

[tame cobalt]

Why isn't al marj on here doe

[tiny tiger]

firestorm on PC is ded :c

[rain rune]

Has been for over a year now

[lilac bone]

never played firestorm tbh

[native jacinth]

not big surprise

[tiny tiger]

man your bio is so cringe

[native jacinth]

cope

[tiny tiger]

no offense

its just funny af

r/im14andthisisdeep

[broken nacelle]

It’s dr disrespect

[pseudo nebula]

I played firestorm like 1 weeks ago. I waited like 10min in queue and it wasnt worth it

[tiny tiger]

oh, the guy who cheated on his wife?

[broken nacelle]

No the 2 time

[pseudo nebula]

Wow so edgy look at me

[tiny tiger]

yea i waited 10 mins

with a friend you cant find a lobby at all, only solo

[pseudo nebula]

Yeah he cheated on his wife once

[rain rune]

Firestorm was fun

Until

[pseudo nebula]

But the dude is genuinely entertaining and loves his community

[rain rune]

at this point I don't even need to say anything

[pseudo nebula]

I barely watch him tho

[pseudo nebula]

Until what, i just played it once and it was enough

[rain rune]

Hackers

[pseudo nebula]

Oh

Thats what hapoens when games are free sadly

[rain rune]

BfV already had hackers before it became free

[pseudo nebula]

Because it was really cheap.

Lots of times

[rain rune]

I think when battlefield got ported towards steam that's when it really took off

[pseudo nebula]

And was hated so some trash people see that as an excuse to ruin the game

[rain rune]

Doubt

Feel like cheaters are always just there

Like no ulterior motive

They're just really bad at video games to the point they have to cheat

[tame cobalt]

Hazard zone moment

[pseudo nebula]

Yes but actually no. Cheaters wont be that present on expensive games

[hard breach]

can someone pls summon the battlefield countdown bot?

[pseudo nebula]

Aren't*

[pseudo nebula]

Couldnt care less tbh

[hard breach]

I got a whole new pe cee and it matches the needed specs

[pseudo nebula]

There is a million ways to insult ppl bypassing it anyways

[arctic grove]

420

[low timber]

So, do you think we’ll get C5 and C4 in the game? As in the BF Briefing they mentioned C5 and in the beta trailer we saw the detonator on the free gadget slot and in the gameplay trailer months ago we saw C4 on the throwable category?

[tame cobalt]

https://tenor.com/view/florence-storm-hurricane-florence-waiting-for-the-hurricane-wipers-gif-12494427

[viral garden]

if its like bfv's one, oh man.....

[dim blade]

ok ive decided

[civic moon]

I really do hope this game doesn’t flop it looks amazing so far

[dim blade]

im gonna buy ea play for the beta

and decide after if i wanna pre order

[pseudo nebula]

Whats wrong with it

[arctic grove]

it definitely looks better than vanguard let me tell you that

[dim blade]

that way i can pre order with my october salary

[civic moon]

I got ultimate edition for the early access

[dim blade]

[hard breach]

bfv fell flat on its face in release

[civic moon]

Ye ik that’s why I bought it instead of van

[hard breach]

lacked content

[pseudo nebula]

But gold already gives you early access

[tame cobalt]

what do you mean? yes, c5 is in the game, it's in the throwable/grenade slot

[hard breach]

should I bui it through the ea desktop or origin?

[pseudo nebula]

Talking about the profanity filter

[hard breach]

oh shit, mb

[pseudo nebula]

Steam

[arctic grove]

But you also get midnight bundle

[viral garden]

everything, cant even say "go to d" or the word "assault" because of "ass" in "assault"lol

[hard breach]

stem

[pseudo nebula]

Lmao

[hard breach]

thats funny

[pseudo nebula]

I hope we get trading cards, wallpapers and more stuff on steam

[low timber]

In the detonators screen it says C4, and we saw it on the grenade slot, and in the beta trailer we saw the detonators silhouette on the free gadget slot. @tame cobalt

[pseudo nebula]

Would be cool

[viral garden]

so if bf2042 has the same filter like in bfv, then expect alot of ************* in chat lol

[hard breach]

they should just do the roblox censor

[rain rune]

Al sundan has the best round start soundtravk

[quick linden]

Steam always has problems with BF games

go for EA Desktop

[pseudo nebula]

What? You have it in origin too if you buy on steam as far as i know

[viral garden]

yeah they should only cencor words like racial ones, not word like "fuck" or "shit" and have a on/off option

[quick linden]

yeah, but there’s problems with PunkBuster from what I’ve known from friends who’ve purchased from steam

[native jacinth]

"he's in the basement"
SEMEN DETECTED
"he's in the ba* * * * * t"

[quick linden]

having to manually reinstall it

[native jacinth]

thank u chat filter

[hard breach]

o em gee! Lil timmy learnd the f word on battlefield!!!!11 oh noes

[quick linden]

either way EA desktop is gonna be good in terms of process usage

[pseudo nebula]

That happened with bad company 2 but i havent seen it anywhere else

[quick linden]

problems with it on BF4

[civic moon]

I did it for the skin it looks sick

[viral garden]

yeah, i dont care either if people swear in chat but nowaday people are triggered by everything lol so dice should just make and on/off option BAM everybody happy 🙂

[arctic grove]

Do you guys think their will be an anticheat

Cause I don’t want this game ending up like warzone rn

[pseudo nebula]

Yeah i like the cyberpunk butchet too

[civic moon]

Prob

[quick linden]

yes, but it won’t stop cheaters

[native jacinth]

EAC confirmed

[arctic grove]

Great

[pseudo nebula]

But not worth 30nuts imo

[hard breach]

[civic moon]

Ye

[pseudo nebula]

Yeh

[civic moon]

That’s for next gen

I’m old gen 🥲

[dusty holly]

Sadly

[civic moon]

Sadly

I really hope it won’t be framey

[pseudo nebula]

Wait hou bought ultimate and play on old gen?

You got the PS9?

[civic moon]

[burnt kettle]

It's easier to look at and determine what exactly you want to select

[tame cobalt]

Clean

[dusty holly]

There’s definitely a settings preference here

[tame cobalt]

or just updated ui

[dusty holly]

Yea

[radiant echo]

Yeah that's a good point

[dusty holly]

I like both

[burnt kettle]

Yeah those screenshots are months apart

[radiant echo]

But idk feels cheap imo

You know one thing that would really unite the fans

[radiant echo]

hello mate 👋

[dim blade]

If you could CHOOSE between 1st and 3rd person takedowns

[arctic grove]

Sup

[tame cobalt]

Dogtags replaced by player cards

[dim blade]

But i doubt that's gonna happen

[arctic grove]

[radiant echo]

good good

[dusty holly]

Yup

[acoustic notch]

That vector wont let you take any, just get a drum mag and a red dot and poof, 100 kills

[arctic grove]

U are

[radiant echo]

For sure

[radiant echo]

[dusty holly]

Someone hire this guy

[arctic grove]

Nooo uu

[dim blade]

Lets just all write emails to EA requesting that

[dusty holly]

Not him

[arctic grove]

XD

[radiant echo]

No you

[dim blade]

im sure if they get enough messages they will at least think about it

[tame cobalt]

Not gonna happen cuz animating for first person is a lot of extra work and 3rd person makes more sense from business perspective (selling skins)

[dim blade]

XD

[dusty holly]

@dim blade

[quaint pecan]

Will you be able to play cross generation at all? Like in a custom game or something.

let's gooo

[dim blade]

October 5 preload babyy

[arctic grove]

Yessirrrr

Hit that download button babyy

[tame cobalt]

Every meelee weapon gonna have its own takedown animation

Pencil takedown weapon when

[arctic grove]

😳

[pseudo nebula]

Not at all, if they make 3rd person animations decently they can just swap the camera to 1st person and it will work

[tame cobalt]

not true

[dim blade]

tickle takedown when

[sullen hull]

soon tm

[dim blade]

I like your pfp

[sullen hull]

thank you

[low timber]

Gonna use that melee weapon then that is fast and not too flashy during executions, stealth is the key.

[signal basin]

Hmm

[dusty holly]

DICE HIRE THIS MAN

[tame cobalt]

Bf1 first person animations took a lot of work due to being 1st and 3rd person (3rd person to bystanders) so if it's just 3 person they can make a larger number of unique takedown animations

[radiant echo]

Yeah it was insane

The thing about 3rd person takedowns that it takes 5 seconds

can't do melee flanks anymore

[tame cobalt]

it doesn't take 5 seconds doe

[low timber]

Takes about 2-3 seconds

[visual gazelle]

Never thought of that. Makes sense now why they would do only 3rd person takedowns.

[low timber]

Maybe a half a second longer than BF3 takedowns.

[radiant echo]

Idk that's what I saw xDD

[low timber]

Someone did do a takedown/execution length comparison of 4 BF games on Reddit once.

[radiant echo]

let's say it's 4 secpnds

BF1 was 1 second

[floral frigate]

well bfv the take downs are so much fun

[radiant echo]

yeah for sure

[dim blade]

Also can you counter frontal takedowns like in BF4?

[radiant echo]

First person is more intense imo

Not gonna complain cuz it doesn't matter

[tame cobalt]

Bfv takedowns also aren't fast iirc

[radiant echo]

[arctic grove]

Sergo...

[versed jetty]

I think so

[tame cobalt]

Bf2042: hardline

[floral frigate]

penguins paradise

[dim blade]

im working on 5th and 6th but got 7 8 9 free

so i can still play the the majority of the beta xd

[radiant echo]

Hey dude

Nice pfp

[versed jetty]

You can’t play on the fifth it’s just a preload

[dim blade]

Yeah i will set it to preload on the fifth

And when i get home on the 6th

i will probably play til 4AM

lmao

[mortal prism]

I'll be good for the first couple days of ea beta, but will be outta the country on the weekend.

[low timber]

Finally found the video that shows different BF games takedown lengths.

https://www.reddit.com/r/battlefield2042/comments/phsazw/i_compared_the_3rd_person_takedown_animation_of/

[radiant echo]

nice

[tame cobalt]

From what i gather, orbital was chosen as beta map because it caters to every playstyle and it's easy to learn how it flows

[dim blade]

Any info on when the beta ends on the 9th?

Provided they don't extend it

[mortal prism]

7:00

[tame cobalt]

It ends on the 10th at the same time it starts

[dim blade]

10th?

[mortal prism]

Yeah tenth

[dim blade]

7AM gmt

?

[mortal prism]

Think so

[tame cobalt]

Not sure 7am utc i think?

[low timber]

Should be up for 48 hours when it opens for everyone

[mortal prism]

Or that

It starts and ends at the same time

[arctic grove]

why thank you Sergo, I like your too

[dim blade]

Ah okay in that case i can play on the 9th too

after work

[radiant echo]

[dim blade]

awesome

[mortal prism]

Its midnight pst

07:00 utc

[dim blade]

7 utc is 10 in my time

[tame cobalt]

I'll squeeze in a round or 2 Sunday morning

If it's not extended

[floral frigate]

what time is i in eastern stnadard

[low timber]

So maybe <t:1633849200:R> ?

[dim blade]

Just google 7am utc and it should display in your local time

[floral frigate]

k thanks

3 am

[tame cobalt]

We've finally gotten good news, now for a few days r/battlefield2042 may not be a toxic wasteland

[low timber]

That’s being optimistic

[tacit sphinx]

yeah i wouldn’t expect to get much time in on the sunday it’s probably just so it doesn’t finish at 9pm for some people lol

[woeful narwhal]

pre-order is unavailable in website?

[tacit sphinx]

[woeful narwhal]

its giving me 500 error

[uncut hinge]

amogus is available on johnny sins.com

[signal basin]

[vocal mango]

its sold out world wide

[mortal prism]

Pre-order is fine on website

[tacit sphinx]

yeah idk what’s up with that it shows for me?

perhaps either refresh the page or just try again in a bit

[mortal prism]

Client error

[tame cobalt]

Let's hope their machine-learning-powered bots are better than their machine-learning-powered profanity filter

[uncut hinge]

[woeful narwhal]

loool

[vocal mango]

from alpha footage they looked braindead so i hope they are better then that

[low timber]

Get 360° no scoped by a bot while in a Jet.

[uncut hinge]

[lavish shadow]

so EA Play members get full access to open beta right

not just 10h of it

[vocal mango]

pro

[tacit sphinx]

the bots looked decently capable 3 years ago so hopefully they’ll be a good standard now

[rich hearth]

is the early access have a server for sea?

[tacit sphinx]

early access should be available everywhere the beta is

[vocal mango]

i say give them esp and 2x damage

[rich hearth]

oke thanks

[low timber]

I remember when BF4 had some hidden test servers full of bots where some players then got in and started farming kills

[tacit sphinx]

i think the swbf2 instant action AI may have used resources from the machine learning program and those were pretty alright in my experience, and that mode came out at least like a year ago iirc

[low timber]

Here:

https://youtu.be/hGYjggjUNK0

[tacit sphinx]

i think as long as the bot level is more like higher tier ones have a tendency to go for flanks and use better strategies, and probably have a bit better handling then i’m happy - somewhere in bfv, i think combined arms, it literally just acknowledges that harder settings are basically just “the bots aim for the head”

i still don’t know why the damage was so scuffed in that mode, both you and the bots were utter tanks

[low timber]

Once when I did the Rotterdam one where you need to assassinate the last target ran into a wall and fell into the void

[tacit sphinx]

unless you picked up one of their guns and then it’s just regular MP damage?

having to dump 3 mags into a flametrooper = peak game design

[arctic grove]

Day 6 of waiting for regular

how many days for regular as there is no clear indication

[low timber]

Good luck with that, some of us have been here for years

[arctic grove]

!!regular

[tacit sphinx]

!regular

bruh

[flint jay]

If you asked that adds like 6 months

[low timber]

Lol

[tacit sphinx]

!!regular

[tender pendant]

The Regular role is earned by users automatically who are active in chat and follow the server rules. With this role you can post/embed images, use some bot commands, and change what color you appear in chat.

[tacit sphinx]

i know how to use commands

[arctic grove]

see, no indication

[torpid shuttle]

!!not_regular

[mellow scarab]

!regular

[low timber]

Oh, it is automatic?

[arctic grove]

oof

[mellow scarab]

!!regular

[tacit sphinx]

yeah we made some changes

[flint jay]

Better off boosting if you want regular

sadge

[arctic grove]

super sadge

[tacit sphinx]

not really?

[low timber]

If you get caught they’ll just strip your role

[tacit sphinx]

with the change it’s pretty easy to get if you’re active in the server

will take a bit more than 6 days though

[tranquil turtle]

I've been in this server for probably well over a year

[flint jay]

lol

[arctic grove]

i started my count 6 days ago

may have been here longer

[pine roost]

Is this the first up to date build gameplay we’ve gotten of 2042?

[mellow scarab]

been here since it announced just here for the game news

[low timber]

My first message here was in 12th of January 2019.

[torpid shuttle]

[arctic grove]

I'm getting a refund rn on standard pre-order to upgrade go gold should I rebuild it on steam or straight from orgin

[tacit sphinx]

entirely up to you tbh

[signal basin]

I've been here a few months

I did also get muted so that probably why

[nova idol]

I would wait to play beta to decide whether id preorder

[slow kraken]

Managed to get access to the Halo Flight Test and just been messing around with the bots and it's really fun. Feels like Halo as well. That is tiding me over until the BF2042 beta

[tacit sphinx]

the steam version just launches through origin anyway so it's preference to where you have most of your games laucnh from ig

[flat brook]

Hi

[arctic grove]

Is ultimate edition worth it

[flat brook]

No

Gold is, if the game is god

good

[arctic grove]

Ultimate gets you a couple skins, a pdf and the soundtrack that’s already on Spotify

[tacit sphinx]

depends if you think it is but personally i think gold is at least much better value

[left sonnet]

Why does BFV ask for a i5 6600k and AMD FX8350 but BF2042 asks for the same intel cpu but a R5 3600?

Is that weird?

[olive forge]

Plus if you like Casper the Ultimate skin you get is for him

[arctic grove]

Oof I think I'll stick with gold then

[flat brook]

because it’s a weird game

[left sonnet]

i asked the same thing like yesterday but i forgot to check if someone replied

heh

[olive forge]

I wish we could swap body and helm on a legendary skin

[tacit sphinx]

i think that system is fine

[olive forge]

I love the ulti.ate helmet just not the body part of it

[coral gulch]

hmm

[glass shadow]

I like the new skin system honestly

[tacit sphinx]

they're probably designed so that it all looks coherent

[glass shadow]

Better than elites

[arctic grove]

Tbh I wish it were more than just helmet and ‘the rest’ for normal skins but at least it’s something. The legendary stuff I can get behind being a unified outfit

[tacit sphinx]

separate outift + headgear customisation is more than i was anticipating tbh so i'm very happy with it

[glass shadow]

Honestly yea, im happy

[olive forge]

Yeah for sure was more than I though as well so I shouldn't conplain

[tacit sphinx]

i thought it was just going to be completely preset outfits

[low timber]

The ultimate skin is most likely Legendary tier and they already confirmed Legendary tier can’t be mixed.

[olive forge]

Right that's what I said

[tacit sphinx]

yeah it looks pretty distinct

[low timber]

I don’t look at the screen when I write.

[olive forge]

Lol

All good

[glass shadow]

Hope the epic skins are good! I really like mixing and matching

[shell ermine]

Milsim skins and default weapon skins master race

[low timber]

But the black skin with little bit of red weapon skin looks nice

[olive forge]

Yeah let's hope they are at least cool like the legendary skins

[tacit sphinx]

i wonder if the irish preorder skin is legendary or if its lower because i like the body but the hood is a weird colour so if you can change that out i'll be pretty pleased

[low timber]

Most likely legendary

[glass shadow]

Irish skin is legendary

[olive forge]

I like the T1 mastery skin Black and Red looks clean

[arctic grove]

This is what I’d love to see honestly, a whole array of milsim skins so people can rep a certain military style. Makes perfect sense with no pats

[low timber]

Don’t really see easy way to mix that raincoat with other skins

[tidal badge]

I never understood why people bought video game soundtracks when they're already everywhere

[olive forge]

The Irish skin is legendary

[tacit sphinx]

i'm guessing the gold bonus skins are probably rare or epic so you should be able to swap the pieces around

[glass shadow]

I hope so!

[arctic grove]

And tbh in this case too the art book being digital means you could easily just download it if you really wanted it. Doesn’t have the same effect as a proper book

[worldly star]

https://tenor.com/view/howdy-cowboy-tom-and-jerry-old-west-gif-5543643

[glass shadow]

Cowboy skins

THAT'S PERFECT!

[worldly star]

this should unironically happen

[glass shadow]

Shibe, you're a genius!

[rain rune]

so why did 2042 bother with using easy anti cheat instead of fairfight/punkbuster like they did with bf4?

[low timber]

Wouldn’t be surprised if we saw one cowboy hat

[nova idol]

I want pirate skins

[tacit sphinx]

some people reckoned they could see a stetson in one of the specialist clips

[worldly star]

because clearly those didnt work

[arctic grove]

Mw had a couple cowboy skins

[glass shadow]

Tactical robot cowboy

[arctic grove]

At least the hat anyway

[worldly star]

like cyberpunk

[nova idol]

Punkbuster

[glass shadow]

Along with a revolver

[worldly star]

that game had a cowboy dude in one of the trailers and he was so cool lookin

[arctic grove]

Oh sheet customisable helmet means cowboy hat on every skin

[nova idol]

The tier 1 mastery skins look sick af

[tacit sphinx]

but yeah there's plenty of opportunity for brimmed hats even if they're not specifially cowboy skins, it would make perfect sense for a boonie hat to be a basic option

[low timber]

Specialist with an eye patch and is master of stealth, special gadget is a box that changed depending of the map so you can hide under it

[tacit sphinx]

also

[pine roost]

Recon hat from bf4

[glass shadow]

A boonie hat would be nice, with a camo style or something

[tacit sphinx]

i went to the site to find the irish preorder skin. why is it in arabic

[wet ledge]

"Be among the first"

AMONG

[glass shadow]

Among us??

[tacit sphinx]

[pine roost]

I hate you all

Why won’t a mogus memes just end already

[bronze storm]

Lol

[glass shadow]

I wanna look like the Russia recon from bf4

[hot magnet]

sorry to tell you that isnt arabic

I dont know what that is

its arabic backwards

[bronze storm]

Cuz it's 2021

[pine roost]

It’s genuinely the most depressing thing when someone makes an among us reference

[tacit sphinx]

oh idk i was using the google translate camera thing

[hot magnet]

among us more like dead game

[bronze storm]

Yeah

[pine roost]

And the number of times I could be listening to a video and my sister goes ‘that’s a tiktok sound’ is also depressing

[bronze storm]

Fall guys is more alive than that

[tacit sphinx]

oh the preorder bonus player card actually has an image now, neat

[pine roost]

I’m fairly sure that’s been there before

[opal compass]

it had that from the beginning

[tacit sphinx]

did it

[opal compass]

just sayin

[tacit sphinx]

lol

[pine roost]

Just most people didn’t recognise what it was

[glass shadow]

Yeah I didn't know either

[low timber]

Shame that we won’t be seeing emblems anymore because of all the swastikas in bf4/h/1

[tacit sphinx]

i wont lie the player card thing is pretty cool, definitely takes from apex

[tall egret]

Oh it’s not bad

[next isle]

will flag

[low timber]

Like didn’t in BF1 the end of round screen needed to change because people had nsfw profile pics?

[tacit sphinx]

mozzy broke the localisation guys

[tall egret]

This was the saddest moment in bf history

[tidal badge]

Imo buying soundtracks of indie games makes way more sense, its a great way of supporting the devs

[formal verge]

[pine roost]

The profile pictures in bf1 were the best

It made the end of a match so enjoyable

[remote kiln]

nostalgia never dies

[fresh dust]

because you're a sussy baka

[tall egret]

Oh lord

Sus

[formal verge]

Bf3 24/7 on portal

[glass shadow]

I saw the post about it, suprised a university would advertise a videogame?

[remote kiln]

10 years later? yeah

[low timber]

I wonder if server banners will make return, because if they do then there is no excuses for emblems being too hard to keep safe.

[arctic grove]

I hope not.

[glass shadow]

I was thinking in general but yea 10 years as well.

[arctic grove]

I hope there's zero ability to make any image in game.

[sharp spear]

when i download beta

[low timber]

Yeah, the banners were to most abused

[arctic grove]

I'm tired of staring at half-naked women and dicks in BF4.

[tall egret]

I can already see some “sexy women” in the server banners

[pine roost]

Emblems are meh, but showing the profile pictures was the best

[tacit sphinx]

i imagine any EoR stat screen (which would be a nice return, show off who got the most kills/objectives/revives etc) would probably use the player cards as well

which makes sense

[dreamy hornet]

We'd be playing 2042 beta in 114 hrs from now

Hyped

[arctic grove]

[low timber]

Is the beta pre-load in the 5th for early access only or can we who play on the 8th also pre-load?

[tacit sphinx]

hmm

not sure tbh

idk how it typically works regarding preloads

[tall egret]

Good question

[atomic forge]

wat.

[arctic grove]

I would...assume it's for everyone as I haven't seen a different date anywhere, not to mention it wouldn't really make sense to have two.

[tall egret]

I don’t even know where I can find the pre load for battlefield

[arctic grove]

Pre-loads are generally a one-for-all type deal. Unless a game has different pre-load dates for like, PC and console or something, as that's happened with some games in the past.

[tacit sphinx]

on xbox there'll just be something in the store

[tall egret]

Oh thank you

[tacit sphinx]

or you probably get a code

[tall egret]

I hope not

[tacit sphinx]

yeah people have been saying they got codes for the past month for some reason lol

[low timber]

There’s most likely going to be lots of spider men on the first round when the early access launches

[tall egret]

Yup

[uncut hinge]

sus

[tall egret]

I’ll either use that character or the medic

[tacit sphinx]

yeah mackay is probably going to be the most popular character in the beta

[tall egret]

The turret guy is boring to me

[tacit sphinx]

probably in the full game for a while as well

[arctic grove]

I'm going straight for Falck or Casper. Not too interested in Woody.

[glass shadow]

I'm playing Casper!!

[low timber]

I’d use Irish if he was in the Beta

[tall egret]

I can’t even remember the names 😭

[pine roost]

First thing I’ll test is if a slingshot is possible

[tacit sphinx]

casper is imo the best looking one

[latent swift]

https://tenor.com/view/battlefield2042-waiting-need-bf2042-battlefield-gif-22909388

[low timber]

Someone needs to do a HookZook

[latent swift]

4 days

[tall egret]

Is he the sniper?

[latent swift]

holy shit thatwill be crazy

[glass shadow]

He's the recon, yea

[tacit sphinx]

it looks like there's controls to cancel the grapple while on the line so assuming momentum exists you should be able to

[tall egret]

Oh yeah he definitely looks the best

[arctic grove]

Casper has a permanent motion detector or something like that, right?

[tacit sphinx]

yeah

[low timber]

Yes

[tacit sphinx]

seemed pretty limited from the info and visuals we have of it though, the main appeal is the drone definitely

[low timber]

But is really subtle, took me 3 rewinds to actually notice the red on the bottom of the screen on his introduction video.

[tacit sphinx]

same

[arctic grove]

Yeah, I wasn't really able to tell how exactly it worked from whatever trailer it was that showed it.

Oh.

[glass shadow]

I noticed some writing as well, but yea, very subtle

[low timber]

Like the easiest to know that Caspers motion sensor is kicking in is when the passive name appears above your health bar

[tacit sphinx]

if you watch really closely there's a red semicircle at the bottom of the screen, and also yeah the text for like "trait in use" did show up on the equipment section of the UI which is quite a nice touch tbh

[uncut hinge]

when

[tacit sphinx]

they might have tweaked how visible it is, i was also watching on my phone so it's probably a bit more obvious if you're actually playing the game

[arctic grove]

I'd shit myself if I noticed it was there for a while without me dying. 😂

[low timber]

But I think most tryhards will lean forwards Casper because of the motion sensor once they get used to it.

[nova sparrow]

Maybe there's a sound also

[glass shadow]

I hope so

[lyric wedge]

How did you get these emojis

?

on the side of admin

[glass shadow]

Wait, do I hope so?

[lyric wedge]

and moderator

[tacit sphinx]

role icons, you need a t2 boosted server (7 server boosts) then you can add custom images for different roles

[lyric wedge]

i see

bf sucks btw cod is better @tacit sphinx

[arctic grove]

Yeah I expect Woody (Mackay) and Casper to be the most popular with sweats. Falck has the heals and can carry an ammo box (most likely gunna be my playstyle), but I just don't see it as a sweat choice.

[low timber]

Anghel could also be quite liked if his rumors are true

[arctic grove]

Maybe.

[tacit sphinx]

honestly i don't think that will be the main pull, seems like it just enhances your awareness a bit but you have to be paying a decent amount of attention to your general situation in the first place

[nova sparrow]

Armor characters might be popular

[low timber]

But I’m going for Irish as a main (will use other as well) mainly because of the APS, as long as it’s effective and not like BF4 MP-APS

[tacit sphinx]

i am interested to see how the armour system plays out

[arctic grove]

I'm honestly a little worried about how the armor is gunna work. I really hope it's essentially just the defensive perk from BF4, except not permanent.

[nova sparrow]

Yeah same hope it's not too OP

[tacit sphinx]

if it's extremely limited in how much you can get/how you can resupply it then i think it's alright

looked to be about 25 max armour

as long as it doesn't do stuff like remove OHK capacity from sniper rifles then i can work with it, that would be annoying though

[low timber]

I think it’s going to be like the Ceramic Body Armour from Bad Company 2 but more limited

[arctic grove]

...Unless 1pt of armor negates 1pt of damage? Max armor would be surviving one more shot. 🤔

[vocal tusk]

Yup

[nova sparrow]

Yeah headshot should still be the same

[tacit sphinx]

i think it basically just acts like BR armour where it's extra health that you don't regen like normal health

[low timber]

Like BC2 increases your health by 25%
And I think the 2042 armor increases your health by 20 points (or less if you have less armor in you.)

[arctic grove]

Hmm.

[radiant echo]

It's gonna ruin my muscle memory

[tacit sphinx]

eg irish has 10 extra health on spawn which is at most going to change the BTK range of a given weapon by a few metres

[radiant echo]

In BF4 I stop shooting at some exact point cuz I know

[vocal tusk]

I wonder will there be a way to get armor other than from Irish. Seems weird to have an armor system thats entirely reliant on one character

[radiant echo]

Now I'm gonna shoot till I see the kill indicator \

[tacit sphinx]

5btk at 25 metres instead of 20 or something

[low timber]

But remember that we’ll also get different ammunition.

[radiant echo]

1 more bullet for AR and 2 more for smgs

[low timber]

Armor piercing probably ignores the armor

[radiant echo]

maybe yeah

[arctic grove]

I'd run armor piercing 100% of the time, unless the other ammo types give too much utility.

[low timber]

Just like in BC2 the Magnum ammo specialization increases your damage by 25%

[radiant echo]

[tacit sphinx]

rumour was anghel might be the armour guy? also possible that it's a gadget you can take yourself, there was a clip in the gameplay trailer that looked possibly like armour plates in the inventory taking up a gadget slot

[low timber]

It’s rumored him to be the armor and ammo guy, like how Falck is health

[zinc dust]

i cant wait for airplanes

specialy for the f35

[radiant echo]

Well if it sucks they're gonna remove it hopefully based on our feedback

[arctic grove]

I just hope medic play feels as rewarding as it does in BFV.

[radiant echo]

I didn't like they animation in BF5

I prefer the old days

To look around for danger

[low timber]

Killed so many medics trough their own smoke

[radiant echo]

2042 is like that

I loved it. It kept all the BF4/1 morons from reviving me in the middle of a firefight.

[radiant echo]

That's good point

But

[tacit sphinx]

i did speculate at the time that this could be armour plates, although there's also apparently not the armour health bar in this build of the game so

[radiant echo]

I like

[low timber]

And that the free gadget slot

[fossil yew]

What will FPS be like on ps4?

[arctic grove]

No smoke, no charged paddles, just a 20pt rez and a med box thrown down, as if they expect me to stay exactly where I died until I healed to full.

[radiant echo]

Yeah looks like it was added late

[radiant echo]

sucks yeah

[tidal badge]

Just test it?

[craggy marten]

The same fps???

[tacit sphinx]

yeah thats in the free slot which honestly feels like a decent compromise

[radiant echo]

Well I'm gonna play with casper with shotgun and RPG

[tacit sphinx]

able to resupply your armour pool but you're kinda cramped because now you don't have a useful gadget

[arctic grove]

That's one thing I liked about BFV, is the reviving system. I never felt like I got revived by a total clown, because if they tried reviving me in a dangerous location they'd just get shot. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[radiant echo]

Or maria with LMG and ammo

[tacit sphinx]

i guess kinda selfish as well

[glass shadow]

Are we gonna be able to have 2 gadgets??

[vocal tusk]

I dont really get how Irish works TBH. Trailers show him with both the shield and the explosive package shield

[arctic grove]

Like 50

[arctic grove]

1 open, 1 specialist.

[tacit sphinx]

specialist gadget + free gadget slot

[craggy marten]

Maybe
