battlefield-2042

[median coral]

It’s still nothing compared to Cold War

[bronze thorn]

It's going to be around 50GB

[median coral]

It got to nearly 300 gigs

[bronze thorn]

2042 is around 50GB.

[arctic grove]

Campaign, Zombies, MP, WZ

[restive trail]

dude imagine vanguards file size its gonna be like 200gb 💀

[bronze thorn]

Never mind, Scratch that. Steam has updated the requirements to "100GB Available space"

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1517290/Battlefield_2042/

[arctic grove]

Apparently Vanguard is 54gb on PS4, which is higher than PS5

[zealous panther]

is it worth it gerting bf6?

[lunar venture]

so i preprdered the standard edition. anyone know if i can upgrade to the gold edition and only pay the difference?

[bronze thorn]

BF6 doesn't exist.

[arctic grove]

Smart ass

[bronze thorn]

Where did you buy it?

[arctic grove]

You know what he's talking about

[tame cobalt]

ps5 has insane compression tech, gotg is 80gb on pc and 30gb on ps5

[opal compass]

Ninetail bullying people again huh

[restive trail]

ninetails wouldnt bulli people

I would

[arctic grove]

so ridiculous the game that doesn't even get close to RDR2 for example in terms of map size , details and content , takes up that much space

[bronze thorn]

Who is ninetails?

[zealous panther]

but is it a yes or no

[opal compass]

Ahri

[arctic grove]

Ninetales | PC Gold Edition

[opal compass]

[tame cobalt]

but not every dev fully utilizes it

[restive trail]

I remember when 2042 first got revealed i called it BF6 by instinct for like a week

[lunar venture]

steam

[median coral]

It’s confirmed to be way smaller luckily https://mobile.twitter.com/CallofDuty/status/1453114930853470210

Call of Duty (@CallofDuty)

Good news for hard drives everywhere: #Vanguard’s install size at launch will be significantly below previous #CallOfDuty releases.

New on-demand texture streaming tech expected to save up to 30%-50%+ on next-gen console and PC hard drive disk space 💥 https://t.co/oYZoyIDTuO

[iron blade]

sixty nine tails

[bronze thorn]

You'd need to refund it and buy the gold.

There is no upgrade option.

[restive trail]

Yeah i have no idea where those gigabytes could have come from especially considering how CW lacked so much content

[opal compass]

You could just cancel the pre order and upgrade

[lunar venture]

wanted to avoid that but oh well

[iron blade]

woooooooooow smaller storage space, such a revoultionary concept, its gonna be the best COD game ever!

[opal compass]

Its 1 day of waiting.

[restive trail]

remember when they used anti cheat as a promotional material and it got cracked in less than 24 hours lol

[opal compass]

But not possible to upgrade yet otherwise

[bronze thorn]

Remember when they used to brag about the fish AI

[iron blade]

?

[restive trail]

INB4 mario 64 in 1996 had better fish AI than a top of the line 2013 game

[zealous panther]

i disapear

[iron blade]

epik

[opal compass]

He just noticed his mistake

[iron blade]

oh

[arctic grove]

one thing i can't believe is cod fans are praising ninja returning as a perk , they literally created issues and then fixed them

they didn't fix the minimap though , that's coming next year ! MW2022 with functioning minimap guys! holllyyyyy shhiitt !

[restive trail]

CoD fans now have a tradition of freaking out about fixed issues that could have EASILY been avoided in the first place

[opal compass]

Imagine a battlefield without minimap on normal modes..... shesh

Not fun

[restive trail]

jesus that would be horrible

[opal compass]

Breakaway... where is the map border

[vocal tusk]

"New on-demand texture streaming tech"

[arctic grove]

[iron blade]

and people say that BF fans have stockholm syndrome, look at COD lmfao

[cobalt mason]

now thats what I call next gen

[iron blade]

same shit every year, ppl complain about it, yet they still buy it

[opal compass]

Gonna have so much fun creating a hide and seek for each map

[arctic grove]

that map(breakaway) is humongous , seems like they are going with people actually staying on one flag and defending it , i hope it works out great

[opal compass]

5,9km²

Thats insane

[rotund cloak]

no offance to cod players but whan marketing is about field of view on consoles, anti cheat and some other things, that tells u there is nothing that they can flex with new game

[opal compass]

But i love the setting

And flying and driving trough the ice canyons will be so much fun

[arctic grove]

which seems like they've done a good job , since i was on B and D1 and D2(orbital) most of the time , idk if that's a good thing

[iron blade]

exactly, if the main attraction to your game is a new map for a seperate BR game, than you know smth is wrong

[opal compass]

I am a roamer. I was on every flag atleast once each round

[arctic grove]

Btw bf5 destruction comfirmed in 1032 which is cool and I saw a vid talking about to play conquest u might wanna defend more then attacking bc of the large maps

[opal compass]

Well. I had a heli or tank on my hand

[arctic grove]

And obv the vehicle call in system is our holy grail

[restive trail]

Crack of duty vanguard

[timid quest]

Sadly I couldn’t fly or drive tanks the inverted controls were glitch for me

[iron blade]

God dammit I HATE warzone, thats what COD is now, a BR game. Literally all the main games are now is a way to make a quick couple million dollars, and an excuse to add shit to WZ, whether it be skins or guns

[green breach]

Who wants squad up with me to be the dozer gang

[arctic grove]

Sry I’m a Irish main

[arctic grove]

hmmm, i was just capping B first , then parachuting to other flags especially D if we had B, it's harder for the enemies when you're coming down

[restive trail]

Same bro warzone is as stale as a year old milk carton

[iron blade]

BF2042 might not be great, but it will sure as hell blow COD out of the water, and im excited for that

[green breach]

Come on we can do the turtle formation. Roman style

[restive trail]

ME ME I WANNA BE GANG DOZER

[arctic grove]

@opal compass wait whags that bomber plane in the background

[vague panther]

they copied and pasted MW to vanguard lol

[opal compass]

B17? Somethin like that

[green breach]

The riot shield is also good to block droppings from Sundance.

[arctic grove]

BF2042 has some great art

[restive trail]

In sales hell no theres always gonna be those irl npcs that account for half the sales that buy it every year but in quality BF will always have it beat

[opal compass]

True that

[green breach]

@restive trail we call them whales.

[restive trail]

i call em ghost buyers

[arctic grove]

@opal compass looked like the Russian tu bomber

[marble orchid]

battlefield will be great for the game they're aiming to make. Launch may still be buggy despite the extra work put in but it'll be fun

[arctic grove]

what was irish's ability ? i don't remember since they revealed him in a separate trailer

[azure lodge]

Battlefield 2042 | Release (Gold/Ultimate)
Releases <t:1636700400:R>

[green breach]

Irish drops a stationary shield

[iron blade]

Yeah, at this point, idk if COD MW22 is gonna bring cod back back from the grave, theyve just fucked up the franchise sooo much

[opal compass]

D and B were a hotspot for sure. Just flew everywhere i was needed from my mates

[restive trail]

We need more BF fanart tbh

[arctic grove]

that could be a movie 😮

[marble orchid]

vanguard is just a modern warfare reskin

[vague panther]

ye

[restive trail]

Yeah i honestly cant tell if CoD is gonna survive for more than 5 years honestly

[vague panther]

It will

[restive trail]

sadly

[iron blade]

Yeah! I may not agree with lots of the changes they are making, but im still excited for the game. COD on the other hand, I have ZERO excitement for

[green breach]

Not sure if Activision itself will survive 5 years from now

[rotund cloak]

5 years is long time, there might be new thing like br that they will milk too

[iron blade]

😩

[marble orchid]

It will, cod is cod. They can remove guns from the game and people will still buy it.

[restive trail]

bro where did u find this art ive never seen it

[green breach]

You know what people still sadly buy yearly? FIFA.

[iron blade]

reminds me of BF1 glacia

[restive trail]

yeah if theres no new genre trend that CoD hops onto soon its gonna die fast. if not then itll survive

[nova idol]

Fan made

[restive trail]

oh its beautiful

[proud scarab]

You’d be amazed at the artistic talent on Twitter. 🐦

[visual oasis]

Portal pog

[restive trail]

Honestly i should get on twitter sometime if theres more like this

[iron blade]

Honestly, I hope to god that COD falls flat on its face and has a hard time getting up, activision needs to have a wakeup call

[green breach]

Can't wait till they add bf1 stuff to portal. And 2142. Then we can have mark 1 tanks going up against Mechs

[arctic grove]

is this official art or fan art , either way it looks stunning

[proud scarab]

Fan art

Moskoni productions

Their watermark is on the bottom right

[restive trail]

about what dark said though, i feel like if CoD doesn't die, then activision might die first because of the shitton of lawsuits recently and they might have to cancel it or something

[green breach]

And mass walk outs

[iron blade]

Overall BF just has more quality and heart put into it. The games feel loved by the devs, and it seems like care and craftsmanship is put into every title to make them great. Even the bad BF games are pretty good. COD on the other hand, doesnt give a shit about quality, and will do anything to release a yearly game.

[proud scarab]

Activision will not die.

Here’s the thing about multi million dollar companies

[green breach]

Billion

[proud scarab]

They are like phoenixes

[marble orchid]

It wouldn't

[proud scarab]

They die and are reborn

Through rebranding

[green breach]

But the CEO doesn't die

[restive trail]

god damn you bobby kotick

[median coral]

Activision won’t die. Blizzard on the other hand may

[proud scarab]

CEO’s can be replaced

[green breach]

Dammit Bobby!

[arctic grove]

bobby is eternal

[rotund cloak]

isnt that over with blizzard, they just have to pay 18mill settlement

[restive trail]

pog

[proud scarab]

XD

[green breach]

Speaking of eternal. We can have chibi Slayer and Isabell fighting together in smash now

[iron blade]

Hopefully the next BF game does a historical setting again. Id like to see it do vietnam, maybe cold war gone hot, or hell, id love to see them take a stab at WW2 again if they have the balls to do it right

[median coral]

Tbh I wouldn’t mind a battlefield 3042

[marble orchid]

Bring naval combat back, but with space ships instead

[iron blade]

Honesly a BF game with exosuits may be kinda fun ya never know

[green breach]

How about battlefield ww3 where nukes were never invented.

[proud scarab]

Korea

[arctic grove]

:/

[proud scarab]

That way I still have my garand. XD

[median coral]

Or just not used

[restive trail]

A BF with advanced movement would be great but the effort for making maps with that design style would make the devs faces melt

[green breach]

Thing is nukes will be usef

[arctic grove]

@proud scarab North Korea specifically

;))

[green breach]

If a country is about to collapse due to invasions and stuff. They will use it.

[proud scarab]

No :

[iron blade]

Idk, but BF2042 doest feel like a WW3 game, it feels like a TF2 merc proxy war. Hopefully they make a realistic WW3 game with tons of factions, gritty atmosphere, and just that same charm BF1 had except in a modern setting

[valid tapir]

Would buy

[lunar venture]

we've only played the beta tho

[restive trail]

yeah like 2 games later a "less organized" type WW3 game

[arctic grove]

this game's visuals are 🔥🔥🔥 , never in my life i've seen such a good selection of maps that have such contrast , and each map's graphics looks phenomenal

[restive trail]

yeah also the colours are beatiful in 2042

[iron blade]

Honesly I still prefer BF1 graphics over 2042, or maybe that just beacuse im on ps4

[green breach]

2042 I suppose is essentially the second cold war. We still need a first cold war battlefield game

[lunar venture]

that is 100 percent why

[restive trail]

As said by one of my favorite youtubers itsillusion: "Compared to 2042, warzone looks like a wet, gray fart in the corner."

[arctic grove]

probably , BF1 had an unmatched atmosphere though

[green breach]

@iron blade I'm on PC now and it's not because of PS4. Bf1 looked stunning.

[iron blade]

Yeah, have a BF type game set in like the 1970s-90s with the US fighting the Soviets. With other factions like the UK, France, Japan, South Korea, etc

[restive trail]

I have an idea for a BF game that i thing would be fan fucking tastic for like the 2nd next BF game

[lunar venture]

2042 was made for PC and current gen in mind. last gen is basically an afterthought. i wish they wouldnt have even worried about last gen

[iron blade]

Please share!

[arctic grove]

WW3 games is what we thought battlefield 2042 would be like

[green breach]

@lunar venture that would have been the case if people could get their hands on a current gen console.

[lunar venture]

or just get a PC

[green breach]

And if you can get your hands on a gpu

[iron blade]

Yeah idk, id just like to see a really realistic take on WW3, basically have BF4 except in the cold war

[green breach]

Same deal but even worse

[arctic grove]

who's excited for nosehair canals ?

[lunar venture]

get a prebuilt

[green breach]

Maby but replace the PSU thougj

[arctic grove]

According to information I've found so far, roughly 15-20m people already own current-gen platforms (counting both here).

[iron blade]

Battlefield 1982!

[lunar venture]

i saw something about that too that had that same number

[rotund cloak]

half of owners are scalper bots

[green breach]

How many have a 3080 that isn't scalping? Raises hand

[proud scarab]

Dats a lot

[arctic grove]

We know that for sure

I think it was something like 12m for PS5, 8m for Xbox.

[marble orchid]

Eh, most people are mad only because of specialists. Once they play the full game, they'll more than likely not care as they equip their free skin

[proud scarab]

XD

This is true

[bronze thorn]

I have a 3080 that wasn't scapled.

[green breach]

Nice.

[arctic grove]

😎 I scalp

I wish I had the numbers for 30-series cards, even though it's not really a direct analog to a console generation.

[bronze thorn]

my 3080

[green breach]

Man I would scalp too but I would be out of a card

[iron blade]

I might write a document of a cold war based BF game, would yall like to see that?

[green breach]

I'd post my card but I don't have a role

[bronze thorn]

I've no respect for scalpers.

[arctic grove]

That's right I'ma sell rtx 3090 for 5000 dollars

[green breach]

It's just business

[median coral]

I have a retail piece Xbox series X

[radiant echo]

who does lol

[iron blade]

I admit, I nearly gave into scalpers for a PS5, but I resisted

[radiant echo]

Oh people who would pay 5x the price yeah

[bronze thorn]

That doesn't make it ok.

[median coral]

I got my series X for $500

[arctic grove]

I have 10 of those I'ma sell for 2000

[iron blade]

If there is a PS5 selling for like 600 bucks, I might pick it up because its only like 100 bucks more

[proud scarab]

Eeeee MSI...

[green breach]

@iron blade that isn't bad I'd bite

[restive trail]

Ok so basically my idea is set exclusively in 3rd world countries like north africa, south asia, and the "stan" countries. The soldiers are just mercs with a lot of scrapped together gear like sniper scopes made out of binoculars or maybe old WW2 rocket launchers and they're fighting some more devloped EU countries

[arctic grove]

I'm sorry buddy that's not enough for scalpel economy

[green breach]

Has to be double

[iron blade]

Yeah, Ive seen 600 bucks PS5s a couple of time, I might pick one up

[bronze thorn]

For every GPU or console that is scalped. Thats one less person who gets to enjoy gaming.

You're probably stopping some young child getting a brand new game console for a birthday or christmas present because you're inflating the prices.

I wouldn't be able to sleep at night with thoughts like that.

[iron blade]

oooooooooohhhhh I likey that

[green breach]

All that cash I'd sleep like a baby

[ornate prairie]

Bruh

[green breach]

Then gets murdered

[bronze thorn]

I don't even know what to say to that to be honest.

[green breach]

Shit gets stolen

[iron blade]

Buys PS5, sells it for 50 bucks like a boss

Buys PS5, sells it for $5000 bucks like a virgin

[green breach]

Can't beat em. Join em

[arctic grove]

The cash from these desperate gamers there good profits

[arctic grove]

No you pay 10k now

[bronze thorn]

I hope everyone who attempts to scalp GPU's and consoles makes a massive loss on them. That's all they deserve.

[ornate prairie]

What time is bf Halloween update

[green breach]

There is a haloween bf event?

[arctic grove]

I'm rich 🤑

[restive trail]

thanks

[iron blade]

im desperate for a way of playing BF2042, because there is NO way in hell im gonna buy it for PS4

[arctic grove]

so , irish resupplies armor every time he gets a kill , right ?

[rich agate]

IS TAIWAN A COUNTRY OR NOT.

[marble orchid]

isn't there a crossgen bundle?

[arctic grove]

Yes...?

[ornate prairie]

No

[green breach]

I used an autobuy bot to get my 3080. Thing didn't work all the way though. Still got the card though. It aut added to the cart but didn't check out. Had to do that manually

Mozzy became a pumkin

[slow rover]

sorry mozzy

[rich agate]

[iron blade]

its just a joke

[sudden wasp]

china/taiwan is a sensitive issue

[green breach]

That it is

[iron blade]

smh

[rich agate]

-1000 credit

[sudden wasp]

yeah so just dont talk about it

[timid merlin]

what isnt in 2021? lmao

[arctic grove]

Why is China/ Taiwan being discussed in BF2042 chat

[iron blade]

damn I had like 4 more questions ready

[green breach]

But talking about that bad drought in Taiwan is A OK

[slow rover]

its not

[sudden wasp]

CN/TW could literally start a war, so as the guy said drop it

[slow rover]

trust me

[arctic grove]

Taiwan makes ps5 parts 😉

[slow rover]

trust us

[arctic grove]

im confused

[proud scarab]

Because kids and memes

[iron blade]

meeeeeeeemes

[green breach]

Cause bored game isn't here yet

[arctic grove]

[proven igloo]

You mean West Taiwan and Taiwan.

[timid merlin]

russia Ukraine is more likely

[proud scarab]

Can def tell it’s a Saturday lol

[arctic grove]

Lol Taiwan annexed china

[green breach]

Gotta work tomorrow morning. Sucks.

[sudden wasp]

i personally would allow stuff like that being discussed/memed about but i can totally see why someone would not want that

[green breach]

I'd have a separate channel honestly

[timid merlin]

well, truth is, the mods here a inconsistent.

[slow rover]

america1 vs america2 is more likely

[arctic grove]

Ewww america

Ukrainian map in battlefield better be Chernobyl

[rich agate]

we need a channel thats like #general but actually active

[iron blade]

#general might be that, but idk the rules are just so weird

[slow rover]

no no france1 vs france2

[sudden wasp]

thats probably right, one of them muted me for no reason

[slow rover]

chapter 3 part 2\

[green breach]

No general is still no politics no religion eitner

[sudden wasp]

they definitely need better mods

[timid merlin]

they just your typical discord pwoer hungry types

[arctic grove]

The mods here arent that bad

[iron blade]

Like seriously, I got warned for having a pfp of a russian general from a movie, so stupid

[arctic grove]

Theyre better than the DL ones

[rich agate]

we need a R channel. this game isn't PG so neither should the chat be

[sudden wasp]

yeah i told that guy that this is the most power he will ever have haha

so what if he wants to become a mod haha

[next isle]

Back to 2042

[iron blade]

smhhhhhhh

[arctic grove]

DP28 MOUNTD N READY

[rich agate]

what did that clear even do

[iron blade]

Im going to general to talk about random BS, join me if you want

[green breach]

It cleaned our souls

[sudden wasp]

do you guys think 2042 will be more popular than warzone?

[rich agate]

fuck yea

[restive trail]

mozzy whos in your new pfp

[bronze thorn]

2042 can't come fast enough. I just uninstalled cod warzone. All it took was 3 matches and I was done. You'd think I had a potato pc with how badly it runs.

Cmon 12th of nov. Hurry up!.

[green breach]

Maby

[proud scarab]

At first, no.

[sudden wasp]

lets hope it willllllll

[tribal dew]

I want battlefield 2042 to feel like bf4 and 3

[proud scarab]

Is a campkin

[restive trail]

As much as i wish it would be its not gonna

[arctic grove]

There 0 to talk about 2042

[green breach]

I forgot I had cold.war installed lol

[rich agate]

i second this

[next isle]

Then don't

[sudden wasp]

i havent touched warzone in 2 months or so but i still havent uninstalled, they are adding planes in december

[lament fjord]

why is the pkp bullpup in 2042 BTW

[bronze thorn]

I want 2042 to be completely fresh and unique. I don't want it to be like any previous BF game.

[arctic grove]

lol

[bronze thorn]

but each to their own 🙂

[rich agate]

this word sequence that you proposed to the brethren here does not seem to comply with the chat of 2042 my good sir

[sudden wasp]

i personally think hazard will determine how popular it will be

thoughts?

[rich agate]

maybe lets all follow the rules here

[tribal dew]

Well at least not like bf1 and 5

[marble orchid]

fresh and unique doesn't always mean good. But I liked it

[restive trail]

TBH they're most likely gonna handle like shit and noones gonna use them

[arctic grove]

BF1 was amazing what are you on about

[bronze thorn]

I'm really looking forward to trying HZ. I gotta wait an extra week to be able to play it with friends but it's gonna be amazing!

[green breach]

If I hazard a guess who knows

[rich agate]

im looking forward to portal

[bronze thorn]

I see what you did there. 🙂

[restive trail]

HZ is gonna be fun i feel like my guess is the pacing and rate of encounters is gonna be similar to apex

[green breach]

Portal released years ago

[iron blade]

Like we always dont talk about 2042, and even the mods take part in the random converstations. Like me and some mods were talking about cool pets in this channel and no one cared! This whole mod/admin shit is so dumb

[tribal dew]

I don't want bf2042 to be just like cod. Thats not battlefield but thats the way it seems to be

[rich agate]

does anyone else know if there will be WW1 content in Portal?

[green breach]

Once game releases we will for sure talk about 2042 more

[bronze thorn]

Nobody here outside of EA/Dice can answer that.

[restive trail]

yeah i can think of a few things from CoD that would fit well in 2042 but not very similar

[lament fjord]

id rather they add new 2042 guns than do a bf1 portal season

[rich agate]

could have just said no

[green breach]

Imagine if an ea dev gets modded for going off topic.

[restive trail]

my guess is maybe yes but not super yes

[lament fjord]

bf1 is good and everything but its a little too recent maybe

portal is more nostalgia

[arctic grove]

Everyone express there opinion about specialist we all know where we stand and 0 info of portal

[lament fjord]

plus i dont like bf1's gun mechanics so i am biased

[rich agate]

dude bf1 is like 5+ years old

[median coral]

Hazard zone may go free at some point tbh. Makes sense to make sure it’s ready for a large wave of players before making it available to everyone

[bronze thorn]

No is the wrong answer.

No implies nobody knows.

My answer inplies nobody outside of ea/dice knows.

Which means there is people here that do know but the chance of it being answered is slim.

[iron blade]

Yeah, we have talked to death 2042, nearly every single aspect we have talked about. What are we supposed to do lol

[bronze thorn]

I really hope none of the game goes F2P

[arctic grove]

DICE won't allow that

[tribal dew]

I know

[restive trail]

Yeah if they have a lot of free weekends they playerbase would do good

[lament fjord]

it was my first game and i really like it all in all but bf4 is better

[green breach]

Kolibri vs liberation pistol vs zip 22 who would win?

[oblique finch]

this,. keep f2p away!

[marble orchid]

More than likely but to make the most money, it'd be better to release it paid

[oblique finch]

f2p means more hackers

F2P is a horrible business decision for a game like BF.

[restive trail]

ZIP 22 because its full auto

[lament fjord]

got to about rank 50 on ps4 and rank 30 on pc and found it tiring but 170 hours on bf4 and im still really enjoying it

[marble orchid]

At launch, yes, but after launch, making it a ftp would be a better business move

[arctic grove]

does anyone know of a way to play with devs once the game comes out ? i need those precious dog-tags

[lament fjord]

i like engaging out of my range rather than being confined to like 50 metres

[tribal dew]

What are we gonna do about all these toxic players that go 100+ kills in bf5 is it gonna be like that?

[green breach]

I missed climbing walls in bf1 when going back to bf4. I was like dammit!

[restive trail]

Still barely ever gonna be any cuz of easyanticheat

[lament fjord]

i keep trying to tac sprint in bf4 lol

[oblique finch]

lets hope so

[restive trail]

Probably just make friends with one when they're in chat, i know theres some here sometimes

[green breach]

I forgot tac sprint was even there in 2042

[arctic grove]

Battlefield 5 mechanics with leaning is hard to do in BF4

[green breach]

2042 needs to bring back leaning and functional bipods

[tribal dew]

These are ttv streamers tho surely they aren't cheating

[iron blade]

2042 feels like the most CODish BF game yet, hopefully they add more skill to certain things like gun recoil

[lament fjord]

tac sprint makes much more sense in bf than in cod for all the ppl saying its a copied cod feature

[green breach]

And functional bipods.

[arctic grove]

it actually occurred to me i can do that during livestreams

[restive trail]

yeah i think there might be bipods in 2042

[arctic grove]

they'll do livestreams soon hopefully

[iron blade]

Yeah, and overall saying that running faster is a stolen feature is just dumb

[tribal dew]

Thats what I'm saying. Cod needs to stay cod and bf needs to be battlefield

[lament fjord]

higher fov -> less punchy recoil. fov was too high in the beta

[restive trail]

i kinda doubt they'd listen but you never know

[green breach]

@tribal wyvern censored meme

[tribal wyvern]

wrong one fuck

[lament fjord]

the maps suck. full stop. bf4 maps are 80% bad

[green breach]

Na leave it it's funny

[iron blade]

I want to have a high skill ceaaling gunplay, like that of BF4

[arctic grove]

Battlefield 2042 is 80% like rainbow six siege and 20% COD MW19

[marble orchid]

That's why battlefield 4 is the worst battlefield, right?

[green breach]

Even our memes are censored now

[cyan spire]

w h a t

im playinb it rn

[iron blade]

[cyan spire]

dont u ever insult gr >: (

[green breach]

Worst battlefield was free to play

[arctic grove]

i think on battlefield 5 streams they would say what server they're in , not the best idea because of streamsnipers but for people who just wanna play it's nice

[lament fjord]

bf2042 is nothing like cod and if u say otherwise ur capping on a fat fucking stack bro

[iron blade]

BF4 isnt my fav BF game, BF1 is, but y dare u insult BF4

[tribal wyvern]

https://tenor.com/view/ah-shit-here-we-go-again-ah-shit-cj-gta-gta-san-andreas-gif-13933485

[green breach]

It really was pay to win.

[tribal dew]

You must be kidding, you are cod fan boi

[shut summit]

fun fact: battlefield 4 does actually have BFV-style leaning, but only on PS4. there's an option to turn on motion sensor leaning, which I personally don't use because it's a bit wonky

[lament fjord]

jumping and shooting does not make a game like cod

[tribal wyvern]

how many times has "this isn't bf" "they copied cod" been said? and how many times has "why can't it be bf3 or bf4" been said?

[lament fjord]

u can do itin bfv and bf4 ffs

[iron blade]

BF4 and BF1 are the series at their prime in the modern and historical realms of BF

[tribal wyvern]

same old same old, another redditor refusing change and just wanting a copy.................

[marble orchid]

People said battlefield was becoming cod since battlefield 3. So that must make battlefield 4 the worst since it became more like cod apparently?

[green breach]

All shooters copied Wolfenstein 3d

[lament fjord]

bf4 maps

[tribal wyvern]

aaaaaand calling cod fanboys others who disagree, nice, full redditor trifecta here

[lament fjord]

bf1 maps are much better

[median coral]

Then going over to a new cod game and saying “imagine buying the same game every year”

[green breach]

Bf3 maps were really good

[arctic grove]

Yep that's the one I was using tbh it wasn't implemented correctly

[iron blade]

yeah nearly all BF1 maps are 🔥

[timid merlin]

you seem stupid

[green breach]

The only thing stupid is crock shoes.

[tribal wyvern]

how so? i pointed out what he's doing

[timid merlin]

idk you seem pretty dumb

[lament fjord]

pearl market is the peak of battlefield maps

[tribal wyvern]

what? you don't know?

[tribal dew]

Bf4 was the last battlefield game that stood by what it means to be battlefield. Now its almost the same as cod.

[green breach]

Pearl market was fun

[next isle]

If you hate eachother, take it to DMs, because no one here cares enough for that

[arctic grove]

bf5 they got the buttons right

[lament fjord]

Explain how

like a list

[tribal wyvern]

what

elaborate the meaning of "what it means to be battlefield"

[iron blade]

BF1 was like the height of BF greatness, nearly every aspect of the game is great

[tribal wyvern]

i mean yeah

[marble orchid]

"stood by what it means to be battlefield" Yeah, I bet you were one of the people saying battlefield 4 was becoming more like cod too

[arctic grove]

More like Battlefield 6 siege

[arctic grove]

you mean hardline

[tribal wyvern]

nah he prob said bf4 was a bf3 reskin

[arctic grove]

someone has a compilation on youtube of dice devs he got:

victims: Striterax, CaptainmAwesome, noctoz, joegrant, zh1nt0, kranium6000, NadGox, JohannesFors, TimmyJones, sepultang, EilertPilarm.
😏

[iron blade]

[tribal dew]

No I wasn't one of those people.

[lament fjord]

i play mw and it feels nothing like battlefield

[marble orchid]

That too

[tribal wyvern]

funny how if you look back on reddit since bf3 they'd have the same ass complaints

"ruined bf" "this is cod" etc

[green breach]

Who here misses first person takedowns?

[lament fjord]

ground war is fucking garbage

[shut summit]

honestly, as far as base game maps go, I don't have many problems with BF4's maps, except for maybe lancang dam and operation locker. sure, compared to many of BF3's maps they're not as good, but I wouldn't say they're bad. golmud railway and paracel storm are excellent maps though

[lament fjord]

and mw is slow

[tribal wyvern]

even bf1 was nicknamed cod/battlefront with a "ww1 reskin"

[iron blade]

same, I want juggernauts lol

[arctic grove]

That's because Reddit is a bunch of pseudo-intellectuals who think they're more intelligent than they really are.

[arctic grove]

The take downs are a disgrace

[green breach]

Elite classes redundant in 2042. Behemoths yes bring those back

[marble orchid]

Yeah, i definitely play battlefield 1 like I play battlefront and cod

[lament fjord]

a lot of them suffer from no cover ie rogue trans

[arctic grove]

Like 90% of Reddit issues can be traced to exactly that.

[green breach]

And of course battle pickups

[vocal tusk]

Paracel storm is an A Tier map

[tribal wyvern]

it's a shame the subreddit and this dc are meant to be the "bf community" yet there's so many more people that actualyl like the games and are smart about it that don't go on these platforms, and the only way to see them is the likes on videos

[median coral]

It makes sense to change it since they are making characters more prevalent but I can see why people liked it

[iron blade]

the 3rd person takedowns look sooooo boring man, I want my brutal 1st person takedowns like BF1 and BF4

[harsh igloo]

G

[lament fjord]

paracel is at its best when the storm comes in Lmao

[tribal wyvern]

and sales ofc

[lament fjord]

otherwise its meh

[tribal dew]

I miss em thats one codish thing I hate

[lament fjord]

kidding

[harsh igloo]

You guys are H

[tribal wyvern]

do you call everything cod? have you played cod before?

[vocal tusk]

Dunno where youv been for the past few days...but the majority of people here have been saying they like the game for the past few days

[lament fjord]

3rd person takedowns feel so impersonal.

[arctic grove]

First-person takedowns are not a CoD invention.

[harsh igloo]

My pet G looks like H

https://youtu.be/VLWrorjQWjI

[green breach]

First person take downs was so satisfying in bf1

[tribal dew]

I was playing games before you were born lol

[tribal wyvern]

for like only a certain amount of time

[shut summit]

paracel storm is my favourite BF4 map mainly because of the atmosphere and I really like BF4 naval combat

[next isle]

I don't like the 3rd person takedowns at all

[arctic grove]

i hate some dice devs ,can we take it to knife-only free-for-all , totally not baiting for dogtags

[tribal wyvern]

then back to same old "this ain't bf" bullshit

[tribal wyvern]

and how would you know when i was born?

[lament fjord]

i want it to feel really personal when i headbutt the shit out of a sniper

[arctic grove]

First person take down are ftw

[tribal wyvern]

i wouldn't make a statement like that with zero knowledge of my age

[lament fjord]

god thats something bfv nailed

[harsh igloo]

@arctic grove i really love your pfp

[lament fjord]

all the takedowns are fucking great

[iron blade]

Bro yesterday I went on a melee mayhem yesterday, I bout passed out of how satifying it was

[cyan spire]

I CANT WAIT AHSDFGDhcfSVB wfvsfvefbSFGWSGWGV

[arctic grove]

i love your pfp

[green breach]

Bring those back in 2042

[tribal wyvern]

also that didn't even answer my question???? i asked if you've played cod before

[vocal tusk]

I dont like either 1st or 3rd person animations for knife kills. BC2 had both the best knifing and the best dogtag collection game

[versed escarp]

Do you feel it disrupts gameplay?

[iron blade]

Idk, even though BFV had the same melee animations as BF1, they dont feel as brutal

[lament fjord]

safe to say we're never getting 1st person takedowns ever getting

[arctic grove]

Why DICE want tp take down

[median coral]

Imo it should be an option. Options for things never hurt anyone and makes more people happy

[shut summit]

I only usually play on Locker when I want to unlock something or get a lot of kills, otherwise I think it's kind of an overrated map

[cyan spire]

what?

[harsh igloo]

@Quayuh Sol Badguy from Guilty Gear, originally by the name of Frederick, was a scientist with his 3 colleagues (also best friends), Asuka and Aria. He and Aria became lovers. What they were studying was magic and its fundamentals. However, a little after the Dawn of Revival, when Frederick was studying magic and "Gears", the door opened, with Asuka pointing a gun at Frederick.

Asuka threatened Frederick and forced him to be a "subject" in his little project, which was to create the first ever prototype Gear, and he succeeded. Aria went missing. Frederick is officially the first ever Gear in mankind history, merged with the power of the "Flame of Corruption". Frederick builds a headband which would keep his Gear cells at bay, while keeping his humanoid form.

Frederick, later named as Sol Badguy (every now and then the Flame of Corruption), started his quest: to find and kill his best friend, Asuka R. Kreutz, and put an end to an upcoming 100 year-long war.

In that war, Sol has had to kill his girlfriend multiple times, but not exactly. Asuka, during that 100 year span, has kept using Aria's cells into making the "Valentines", a family that wants to destroy humanity to make room for a "new better species". As always, Sol destroys the evil, at the cost of knowing he has kept eliminating his lover, never finding true peace ever again.

[cyan spire]

so what person?

[green breach]

@vocal tusk well we kind of have that in 2042. We punch people to death now

[iron blade]

you are begging for a warn lol

[next isle]

I feel it adds a comedic tone that isn't needed

[harsh igloo]

Yes i am

[weary osprey]

[iron blade]

epik!

[lament fjord]

a lot of them are better. u can snap necks and headbutt ppl which is pretty cool

[marble orchid]

Battlefield 7 releases
People don't like [insert new item] in the game
They call battlefield 2042 a good battlefield with a rocky launch

[austere thicket]

What do you guys think

[proud scarab]

https://tenor.com/view/battlefield-battlefield2042-gif-22381858

[arctic grove]

Every fucking time.

[next isle]

Like my character is trying to earn style point by 360-knifing someone from behind

[cyan spire]

me like me like

[iron blade]

Yeah, but those are for mechanics not in BF1, specifcally the prone on ur back

[marble orchid]

same happened with 3, 4, 5

[lament fjord]

im sure dice can sell unique first person animations

[vocal tusk]

When you stabbed someone in the back in BC2, it just did a backstab animation, where you plunge the knife. you had to do this to get the tags. a knife swipe from the front didnt count as getting tags

[median coral]

COD does the same but with the game from last year, same is happening to CW and Vanguard rn

[versed escarp]

Yeah that's definitely noticeable, it takes away from the whole atmosphere

[cyan spire]

mozzy do you know if they fixed the prone takedowns? they help the character up then stab them in the beta, is it any different?

[arctic grove]

[cyan spire]

most likely is but just double checking

[shut summit]

kinda sad because the 3rd person takedowns are clearly so that they can sell cosmetics, when I think they could just as easily sell melee weapons with unique first-person takedown animations

[marble orchid]

The difference being cold war wasn't that good

[green breach]

Mozzy the wrong person to ask. Have to wait for a dev to join in

[median coral]

People started saying that cold war was good after and was original unlike vanguard or something lol

[iron blade]

I actually liked that feature ngl, you like helping them up on their feet and then proceeded to stab them lol

[lament fjord]

What

[next isle]

No clue

[iron blade]

perhaps yeah

[arctic grove]

[cyan spire]

it was funny but unrealistic lmfao

[tribal wyvern]

every damn time

[cyan spire]

i didnt mind it just

[green breach]

Oh they gonna sell the animations for sure

[iron blade]

yeah lol

[cyan spire]

yk

[versed escarp]

If they made the takedowns clean, simple, and powerful i feel like itd work a bit better

[proud scarab]

That’s a lie. They still sold cosmetics, and GOOD ONES in BF V without 3rd person takedowns.

[arctic grove]

Third person take downs to sell microtransactions is worst idea

[tribal wyvern]

you know, the community is made up of a very very quiet majority

[cyan spire]

alr

[green breach]

@arctic grove gonna work though.

[tribal dew]

Yes:
call of duty
Call of duty 2
Call of duty 3
Call of duty Big Red 1
Call of duty modern warfare/123
Call of duty infinite warfare
Call of duty bops/123

[lament fjord]

make melee weapons paid instead. u have a knife and buy cool unique axes or sticks or sabres or whatever else

[tribal wyvern]

notice how the hate for 2042 seems overwhelming, yet the likes are so much higher than dislikes every single time

[lament fjord]

dice pls

[green breach]

@lament fjord they may do that.

[tribal wyvern]

and if you do the math, this dc and subreddit's member count is barely anything compared to sales game will probably make

[proud scarab]

Big Red 1 was my first COD lol. Played it on PS2 😂😂

[lament fjord]

i hope so

[arctic grove]

[elder violet]

Guys.

[tribal dew]

It was amazing

[median coral]

Also it’s pretty high on Xbox rn, meaning people are preordering it

[elder violet]

I need.

[green breach]

Who here remembers that crap that was black ops 3 on PS3?

[elder violet]

to Play 2042.

I need it. So badly.

[lament fjord]

knife is all i need personally but im sure a katana beheading first person animation would be very popular

[arctic grove]

Hmph we see it in COD MW the animations get you killed lol

[tribal wyvern]

it's been top 4 most pre ordered on steam for a while now

[elder violet]

I NEED IT

[lament fjord]

actually id buy that

[proud scarab]

https://tenor.com/view/dice-gif-22760528

[arctic grove]

I won’t release it now since you asked

[elder violet]

no potat 4 u

[tribal wyvern]

stats don't lie, very very vocal minority and a very quiet majority here

[arctic grove]

[tribal wyvern]

you know you can see the quiet majority in this server depending on tiem of day

[median coral]

It has interest just most don’t say anything about it and get heard lmao

[tribal wyvern]

there'd be periods where this chat is flooded with people having civil discussions about the game and being positive about it

[tribal dew]

Point is Dice has lost its way and its frustrating

[elder violet]

most people who have a problem with a game will voice their opinions, most people woh enjoy something are either too busy playing it, or playing other games they enjoy.

[iron blade]

Like the BF1 melee animations are so badass, like literally clubbing someone on their face and stomping their chest in. Kicking someone in the face and then stabbing them in the neck. Why cant we have something like that in BF2042

[tribal wyvern]

i guess they start talking when they notice chat's dead and the haters gone

[arctic grove]

What large franchise hasn't at this point?

[lament fjord]

dice changes the formula every game bc itd be boring otherwise

[tribal wyvern]

fax

[arctic grove]

Still excited to get my hands on early access launch

[marble orchid]

I mean, none of them compare to BF5 stuff, but the specialists are a bit iffy. Overall, reception is pretty good if you only compare likes and dislikes. The new trailer also makes it apparent that people care more about gameplay than specialists

[tribal dew]

True!

[tribal wyvern]

it'd just be another cod if they didn't change stuff

[proud scarab]

Has it “lost its way” or has it just adapted with the times? :/

[lament fjord]

imagine bf4 remaster. ppl would complain that its just a copypaste

[lament fjord]

exactly

[median coral]

Gonna preorder mine next week

[iron blade]

Or clubbing someone's knee cap and as they lean over in pain you bash their face in

[lament fjord]

like why would anyone play a bf4 or bf3 remaster when u can just play the games

[arctic grove]

[elder violet]

i got the gold preorder, i dont even know what i get other than i get to play it early

[bronze thorn]

I couldn't care less personally what people are disliking in 2042. From what I've played in beta + the trailers n stuff.

I think it's gonna be a great game!

[lament fjord]

its nothing new

[arctic grove]

It’ll say on the store

[green breach]

@elder violet you get a lot of swag with it. Good choice

[elder violet]

Im glad they ditched classes and that I can use any gun with any specialist, that's a dealmaker for me.

[marble orchid]

They can change by making better maps and a new setting that isn't WWII. Everyone would be fine with that

maps in modern warfare were awful

[tribal wyvern]

i genuinely think it's gonna be best bf game ever made and probably revolutionize the fps genre with portal

[tribal dew]

Adapted to new times but lost its touch with those of us that were around when there was just 15 dice devs making bf1942

[median coral]

Specialists are fun imo

[indigo flame]

Okay calm down dude lmao

[arctic grove]

BF2042 could be the redemption the franchise needs if everything goes well. Same goes for Halo: Infinite. Halo: Infinite actually feels like Halo again, not some weird space-age FPS that's masquerading as Halo.

[arctic grove]

the second part's gonna happen 100%

[tribal wyvern]

i mean the only game that has come close to portal's concept is arma 3's editor

[arctic grove]

i'm very much looking forward to what Ripple Effect does next

[bronze thorn]

I'm just really glad none of it is F2P

[proud scarab]

Right. Well, things change. I don’t think they’re going down the wrong path.

[tribal wyvern]

although arma 3 isn't AAA and the editor requires advanced programming knowledge aswell as mostly being a modding tool

[tribal dew]

I hope in the first 20 hrs I play it feels like battlefield

[green breach]

Ripple effect more like Dice La am I right?

[median coral]

I mean it’s not super close but Fortnite has something like portal

[marble orchid]

It won't be the best but it doesn't need to be the best to be a fun game to sink hours into. Honestly, it'd just depend on your preference. Portal allows you to do so much too

[tribal wyvern]

overall portal is a AAA interpretation of arma 3's editor with an original spin on it

[azure lodge]

Battlefield 2042 | Release (Gold/Ultimate)

It's like a splash of apex legends mixed in with the almost entirety of Battlefield.

Ripple Effect not dice la

[proud scarab]

This screams VOLUMES!

[bronze thorn]

The people that say "#NotMyBattlefield" Are the most hillarious people I've ever seen.

[green breach]

Didn't dice la convert into ripple effect?

[indigo flame]

We have basically no actual information about Portal. I’m excited for the game too but you gotta curb your enthusiasm dude

[arctic grove]

yes

[tribal wyvern]

nah

[arctic grove]

I don't know if you've played the playtest or not, but for what it's worth, it sure feels like Battlefield to me. I've been playing Battlefield for probably 12 years at this point.

[green breach]

Then my post stands

[tribal wyvern]

we got a whole briefing on it and knowledge of what we can do

[proud scarab]

#NotMyBattlefield? The fuck, we holdin protests on Twitter now?

[elder violet]

I dont even want to play BF4 because it feels so stale to 2042 that i played in the beta

[tribal wyvern]

and from what i WANT to do that's enough for me

[marble orchid]

Anyone who thinks their opinon regarding if specialists should be removed is unhelpful. Dice isn't removing them

[elder violet]

So I'm just gonna play Path of Exile until then.

[bronze thorn]

Nobody has to curb anything. We're all entitled to be excited for a new game to come out.

[indigo flame]

“Revolutionize the fps genre”

[tribal wyvern]

specialists are here to stay whether people like it or not

so i say keep crying, or leave

Why change what made bf so unique in the beginning? Battlefield was so great and different from ever other shooter out there, now it is the same as every other shooter

[green breach]

Everyone should get roles when game drops so we can all post pics

[median coral]

And BF2042 is gonna do well, meaning they become part of the franchise

[tribal wyvern]

no AAA game has done portal's concept before

[elder violet]

why change what made "insert fps" so unique? Because if we didn't we'd be stuck with DOOM clones.

Do you want things to stay the same?

Forever?

[green breach]

Not doom clones. Wolfenstein 3d clones

[bronze thorn]

Specialists fix the biggest issue I had with previous battlefield games.

[indigo flame]

Right but we don’t have detailed information on the logic editor yet. That’s the most important thing. WWII planes are gravy.

[tribal wyvern]

cod is proof changing minimal shit will get you nowhere

[indigo flame]

I mean… Forge?

[elder violet]

tbf cod is super successful.

[proud scarab]

Ok. So. More specifically, what has changed that made the franchise so bad? Also..... a company thrives on adaptability and change. If you think a multi billion dollar company isn’t going to change, I don’t know what to tell ya

[median coral]

They’ve even started changing shit dude to this

[arctic grove]

The "change" that they're doing was planted as far back as Bad Company 2, it just wasn't obvious enough to notice. It's been subtle the last ~10 years or so, but the groundwork for specialists has been in the making for a loooooooong time.

[marble orchid]

"Why change what made bf so unique in the beginning?" the irony in that question is great.

[tribal wyvern]

the real fanbase of cod has left in 2013, the only reason it's doing sales rn is because it's catering to casuals and is the most popular fps on the market

[tribal dew]

I played and I felt the battlefield feeling but something just seemed off and its a bunch of things that I alone can't change.

[proud scarab]

^

[median coral]

Vanguard has features no cod ever has yet

[elder violet]

Classes didn't make battlefield unique. At all.

[green breach]

Need my biplanes in portal.

[proud scarab]

Battlefield itself was a change from the meta

Now they’re doing it again

[indigo flame]

CoD is among the most profitable game series, what the fuck are you talking about

[tribal wyvern]

they've changed it once, then stopped, vanguard is an mw copy paste

[scenic igloo]

Mario Maker laughs in the corner

[indigo flame]

Oh god all this fanboyism is triggering my hives, adios all

[woven pike]

I think they should have the normal class system, but after choosing a class you can pick a specialist that is assigned to that class.

[green breach]

Mario maker sucks without online

[arctic grove]

i feel like they might be unbalanced especially at launch , we have portal to fall back on , but i really want to play as sundance for example so ...

[proud scarab]

Ok so how about something that isn’t “oh I had an off feeling”? How about actual facts?

[median coral]

It has new refinements though

And new modes

[marble orchid]

People praise battlefield 4 as if it didn't change anything and yet say battlefield should stay the same.

[scenic igloo]

Logically it's not a FPS, but still

[tribal wyvern]

yeah pls leave cuz i remember our last convos ended up with you being massively toxic cuz u disagreed with my opinion

[tribal wyvern]

[median coral]

Warzone hasn’t been bad for cod, it’s been forcing atleast small innovations every year

[tribal wyvern]

nah wz is making bank

it's vanguard that's bad

[arctic grove]

how about only i get specialists , other people don't have abilities , sounds good to me

[arctic grove]

COD makes a shit ton of money every year

[proud scarab]

Oy.. the hypocrisy is real with some folk, man. 😂

[elder violet]

I think people just dont like "heros". Or think the lack of classes ruins teamwork, when it does the exact opposite.

[scenic igloo]

Yeah. Half the fun is seeing whatever people find that could be cool. Like a calculator in Mario World? HECK YES!

[proud scarab]

^^

[marble orchid]

Just pick the specialist with the gadget you want. It changes nothing gameplay wise except restricts what you can do.

[indigo flame]

Lmao, you’re out of your mind. If by being toxic you mean I was saying “you shouldn’t be hostile to people who disagree with you” then yeah, sure.

[proud scarab]

Still waiting on my answer as to what exactly feels “Off”

[elder violet]

IF you think the culmination of teamwork is throwing a magic ammo/health giving box on the ground, then you have no idea what teamwork is.

[bronze thorn]

Aint nobody gonna break the excitement I have to play 2042.

[tribal wyvern]

sorry i meant no AAA fps game

[proud scarab]

Been sittin back and listening to the “opposition” for a while

[tribal wyvern]

same

[indigo flame]

Halo. Forge.

[median coral]

Like you can finally earn operator skins that aren’t just recolors like MW19

[tribal wyvern]

my hype ain't goin nowhere

[proud scarab]

Now I’m interested in hearing the core reason

[arctic grove]

Halo has one

[proud scarab]

That looks edgy and shitty

[tribal dew]

I want bf4 classes back! The hell with this specialist bs

[median coral]

That’s only a couple skins

[marble orchid]

Everyone is going to have the skin to the far right on

[proud scarab]

Still

[median coral]

It’s apparently a bunch of levels per operator

[arctic grove]

Specialists alone are honestly pretty bad. Before anyone gets their undies in a twist, I don't mean specialists as a whole, I'm talking how they play and what their gadgets are. They just really aren't great.

On launch people will be met with the reality that figuring out certain combinations of equipment can and will break the game a whole lot harder than a single specialist does.

[vocal tusk]

I mean...BF style changes for the last decade have come in twos

BC > BC2
BF3 > BF4
BF1 > BFV

[marble orchid]

Then play portal if you want classes while everyone else enjoys specialists.

[tribal wyvern]

go play bf4 or play portal, or leave

[elder violet]

nooooo

[arctic grove]

oh absolutely , actual teamplay occurs when you have a squad that are communicating

[tribal wyvern]

no one will miss your whining about wanting a copy paste

[elder violet]

mod y u do this

[marble orchid]

Lets not forget how big of a change there was from battlefield 2 to 3

[tribal dew]

[median coral]

Portal exists to slowly phase out classes lol

[proven igloo]

Almost never. Then again I don't care for in game chat at all and am usually in a party with people I know.

[bronze thorn]

I'm not bashing what you're saying but in general I think we should give them a try before we go too far into what is and isn't broken.

I don't expect any specialist to be balanced at release. That's just too extreme of a belief.

I do believe though that given time they will be able to bring them all in line.

[proud scarab]

It’s not a bad idea

[marble orchid]

Portal exists so people can make any type of gamemode they want

[median coral]

Since most people will get bored and just play AOW and realize specialists aren’t that bad

[proud scarab]

Hell, people need to embrace portal

[tribal wyvern]

for the people crying about 2042 not having teamwork and never getting revived, i'm playing bf5 rn and THREE MEDICS ran past me, and were all able to safely revive, yet didn't

[median coral]

That also

[arctic grove]

Like, for example, just because someone runs Dozer or Irish doesn't mean they're somehow gunna up their survival rate. In that same vein, just because someone runs Paik doesn't mean they're gunna top the leaderboards. Skill plays a big factor too, and part of that skill is learning what combinations work in what situations, as well as figuring out some clever ways to use said equipment.

[arctic grove]

We must be playing different games, because all the medics I get revive me

[elder violet]

tbf i didn't Rated M for mature the chat. I provided the alternative of eating a potat

[bronze thorn]

Can you imagine if they changed their mind about earning XP in portal servers? That'd be crazy.

[elder violet]

Mods are against potats.

[twilit palm]

Before games like Valorant came along i was a “hero shooter” hater but now realize that they add so much variety with abilities, all they might need is a bit of tweaking which is not hard at all

[elder violet]

We must rise up against the mods.

[austere lily]

but why

[elder violet]

they hate potats

[scenic igloo]

I got it. Just joked a tad with ya there when I saw the opportunity

[indigo flame]

I can’t want for BF 2042 to come out because it’s going to cure my depression and possibly even be so good that Infinity Ward is going to go out of business. Maybe it will even make my step dad stop calling me “bro” I’m so fucking excited. The future is so bright.

[tribal dew]

Why specialists tho? Thats never ever been q bf thing ever

[marble orchid]

I mean, if I'm playing irish, it means I'll be able to flank their team with my deployable cover

[arctic grove]

Change something up?

[tribal wyvern]

cuz change man, it's better than the old class system

[arctic grove]

I don't expect them to be balanced either, but this whole idea that it's going to be Warframe in Battlefield is just ridiculous to me.

[elder violet]

It was carbonic, i knew it

he hates potats

[austere lily]

I might not be a fan of the specialists either, but I don't mind a change of pace.

[tribal dew]

Why is it better?

[arctic grove]

it's weird , but that sounds exciting to me , using too many repair tools on a vehicle will probably break the game's balance , but at the same time it's so awesome

[elder violet]

how can anyone hate the best superfood in the world?

[tribal wyvern]

allows better playstyles, choose any gun and 2 open gadgets is a lot better than how restricted old system was

[arctic grove]

I've seen Battlefield's specialists get compared to so many other hero shooter games 😂

i'm actually excited to see what OP stuff people will do when combining specialists , idk man

[tidal hare]

only one open gadget lol

[vocal tusk]

I wonder if people at DICE actually hate the new main theme, I notice in all the trailers they never allow the shreiking main melody play...while in trailers for older games, playing this part is common

[tidal hare]

it is one open

[median coral]

Hero shooters became popular because people liked them, they wouldn’t keep making that format if it sold like shit

[arctic grove]

Of course, but that isn't what I'm saying here. I'm saying that you put a shield down and get shot in the back, what good did the shield do you? There's just so, so much that needs to be thought about here.

[tribal wyvern]

sry my bad

[tidal hare]

and one locked to your specialist

honestly

[still vault]

Stop with the off-topic attempt at...whatever it is you are doing

[marble orchid]

"why did they reduce the class size in battlefield 3 from 7 to 4, THEY'RE JUST TRYING TO BE MORE LIKE COD"

[tidal hare]

My take on specialist system is

[tribal dew]

The old system was never restricted in bf4 bf3

[arctic grove]

So Irish's shield should fully enclose him? That would just be way too OP

[arctic grove]

If I ever see Battlefield (in terms of specialists) get compared to Overwatch I might just quit life and live in the woods.

[tidal hare]

"it is class system with a locked gadget"

[gritty cape]

Hey guys i want to know if there is a way to play commander app on phone today

[austere lily]

"Cough" The girl with wallhacks "Cough"

[tribal wyvern]

it always was, you couldn't choose any gun, and you couldn't choose any gadget, you sure as hell was restricted

[elder violet]

Hey, this power trip u got goin on, would be better with a side of potat.

[proud scarab]

No. It doesn’t.

[arctic grove]

No, not at all. That's not what I'm saying.

[elder violet]

We're all going slightly insane from the lack of BF2042.

[marble orchid]

I mean, irish also gives out armor

[twilit palm]

Don’t forget some of the maps have songs based on them in the soundtrack so DICE is probably just showcasing the whole thing

[tribal wyvern]

you were constantly forced to sacrifice something, for example if you wanted to be anti vehicle you'd have to suffer smg's or ar's

everyone played assault cuz it had ar's and you could heal yourself, the other classes were way too restrictive

[elder violet]

Would you rather like to talk about how the vocal minority hates specialists? Or eat potat?

[arctic grove]

One extra shot at full armor if it works how I think it works. Maybe two if you're shooting with a shitty pistol.

[gritty cape]

can we still play bf4 commander mode on phone ??

[median coral]

Ash is coming out next week so that’ll keep me entertained until the early release https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=CetTZ9cYPd4

[tribal wyvern]

will you shut up?

[vocal tusk]

Well the trailers so far just loop the intro and middle 8

[arctic grove]

collecting dice dogtags vid on YT got 500 dislikes , seems like 140 dice devs forgot to dislike the vid

[elder violet]

shhhh its ok bb

[arctic grove]

WWE is fake

[marble orchid]

armor is just extra health, that's how it worked in the beta but may change on the full release. But based on that, I can tank a sniper headshot with it.

[austere lily]

You don't say. 🤣

I wish I could snap my fingers and skip the next 13 days.

[tribal wyvern]

1. i'm 15. 2) you constantly try to shift to off topic about some wack "potat" meme

[tribal dew]

Bd4> scout, engineer,medic,assult. All had loads of guns to choose from for that combat role. Now dice has turned bf that was a milsim lite into a cod reskin

[tribal wyvern]

i don't see how cod has specialists

[marble orchid]

Guys! WHY did dice reduce the number of classes in battlefield!? They're ruining what makes battlefield battlefield!!!!!!!

[elder violet]

I feel like that's worse.

[mossy solar]

Only because of the internet is life fake.. and everyone becomes their true form on the internet. Low lives everywhere.

[arctic grove]

Stone 🪨 cold stunner

[austere lily]

Just because they have Specialists doesn't mean it's anything like CoD, you can't compare the two.

[median coral]

If anything specialists are more like legends in apex than COD, and even then they aren’t the same

[arctic grove]

Outside of the headshot survival (which shouldn't be a thing), I don't see it as being much different than the defensive perk in Battlefield 4.

Obviously in BF2042 it works as extra health, but in essence it's basically the same type of thing. I feel like if past games are anything to go by, while it does make a minor difference, it doesn't make enough of a difference to make it a meta or a must-pick.

[median coral]

Operators do nothing in cod but be skins with unique voice lines

[tribal wyvern]

anyone who calls 2042 a cod reskin eitehr has never played cod before or is blind/stupid

[arctic grove]

Same with Bad Company 2 with magnum rounds and...whatever the armor thing was.

[median coral]

They don’t have abilities anymore

[tribal dew]

You are 15. Lol yeah go play bf1942 for me for a week then play battlefield bc2 . Then play bfv and tell me what the difference is.

[vocal tusk]

Its basically the exact same thing

[marble orchid]

It's more powerful but is the same thing they should rebalance to not affect headshots considering there are specialists that passively hand out armor

[tribal dew]

No need to be rude

[austere lily]

Well I am gonna go back to grinding Warframe which seems pointless because the RNG just wants to kick my ass.

[marble orchid]

Battlefield 5 is fun and up to date

[arctic grove]

Battlefield armour perk don't work much it's still 2 bullet to the skull

[tribal wyvern]

you were rude to me first, twice, nothing wrong with defending myself

[vocal tusk]

Smell of mutings in this chat RN

[marble orchid]

Nah

[arctic grove]

There on topic

[tribal dew]

It is unless you encounter a good team and your team likes playing base protection simulator

[proud scarab]

You’re comparing titles that have years apart, different development and different staffing. Wha-?!

[marble orchid]

That's in every game

[still vault]

All rude, offensive behavior etc. is not something we do in here.

#500058972234055710

[restive trail]

What he said

[arctic grove]

Honestly, I just don't see much point in using snipers anymore, and it used to be one of my favorite things. They get fucked almost every game in one way or another.

[proud scarab]

That’s like comparing a 2008 Jeep Patriot to a 2012 Jeep Patriot then a 2018 Patriot.

Like what?!

OF COURSE THEY’RE DIFFERENT!

[arctic grove]

You role with me you will be a legendary sniper

[vocal tusk]

We just need a velocity bump on the base rifle TBH...other than that, it was mint!

But its hard to judge sniping on the first rifle

[arctic grove]

There's mathematics behind battlefield sniper

[tribal dew]

Well I could say my 1983 Scottsdale is still the best truck that was made to last now chevy has gone down hill

[stiff pollen]

All sniper rifle scopes (anything above a 6x) needs mill dots or some way to gauge drop

[arctic grove]

i hope we get first person takedowns in BF3 Portal , it's so good when you look them in the eye and stab them in the heart , ( i'm kinda sick ik)

[tribal dew]

Battlefield was the chevy Scottsdale until bf1

[proud scarab]

There’s no point in arguing with you. XD

[median coral]

Then do the same thing that is about games too, don’t buy the newest model if you don’t like it

[restive trail]

yeah sniping is hard in 2042 but i think thats better than EZ annoying sniping

[arctic grove]

Portal runs on same engine lol

Scope glint needs to return to BFV-levels (a lot more difficult to see, but not impossible), bullet velocity needs to go up, and surviving headshots shouldn't be a possibility whatsoever. If I hit someone in the head with a bolt-action and it's not a OHK, then I'm just gunna get beamed. That's a no-no.

[gritty cape]

can we still play bf4 commander on phone right now ? is there a trick ????

[restive trail]

no

[arctic grove]

we got a sniper main here

im sorry

Maybe in BC2. 😂

[arctic grove]

The player model have helmets Iol

couldn't help

[arctic grove]

even though it probably won't happen , it's still possible

[restive trail]

I agree with most of those but i think BV needs only a small increase

[proud scarab]

Just ready for the game to launch so all of these #NotMyBattlefield lads can suck the pacifier until the next DLC or game launch.

[arctic grove]

Yeah, a minor increase would be good enough.

[tribal dew]

@tribal wyvern it wasn't my intention to come off as rude, I do apologize.

[arctic grove]

Getting hit in the head (helmeted) with a full power round is going to put you on the floor. Whether it's in a hole or unconscious/concussed, one of those is happening.

[restive trail]

I dont understand why the boomers dont want to play the mode intended for their target audience

[proud scarab]

Wouldn’t call em boomers lol

[crimson umbra]

@waxen spear Do not self advertise your channel outside of #streams-and-videos

[proud scarab]

Just people hard of hearin

[restive trail]

thanks joker

cheers

[arctic grove]

Either way, you don't just get up and everything is fine. Snipers should 100% be OHKs to the head. Especially a .50 cal, if they add one.

[restive trail]

theres one even bigger, the dentel 20mm

[arctic grove]

The helmet might "save" your head, but only in the sense that it won't be attached to the rest of you anymore.

[median coral]

I’ve seen a lot of brand new players in general excited for the AOW mode that never played BF before so their plan is working, seems like portal is failing at not making the other audience happy

[restive trail]

Yeah i dont think its portals fault the community is just a bunch of whiny assholes which really sucks because portal looks like the greatest mode in BF history

[lucid trench]

got the whole squad laughing

[median coral]

That’s what I meant

[vocal tusk]

Doesnt help that we have seen basically no decent footage of Portal in action (yet)

[median coral]

AOW is working at getting new players into the series and portal should hopefully work for people who like the classic gameplay

[vocal tusk]

The only footage we have of classic classes is from a beta bug

12 days before release, thats kinda weird

[proven igloo]

Should probably go look at Temporyal's datamines

[vocal tusk]

Im talking some form of trailer showing it off. With gameplay of the classes on their classic maps. With HUD active, not scripted (fully) events

[arctic grove]

no one wants all out warfare. what the real new players want is an mmorpg battlefield

[proven igloo]

All out warfare is literally just slightly different conquest

[marble orchid]

Leaks say classes and their specials will be coming back

[wide shore]

❔

[vocal tusk]

We already know every era, class, faction, weapon, gadget and vehicle is in portal, but no map or class gameplay.

[arctic grove]

you didnt know that?

[unkempt trellis]

hahaha

[wide shore]

Technically, we did get some portal gameplay

Not a lot. But we did

[vocal tusk]

None in the fashion of the latest map trailer (yet)

[arctic grove]

hahaha

[cyan spire]

p

[unkempt trellis]

it died in here

[arctic grove]

because of you

[unkempt trellis]

Good.

[wide shore]

Don’t have any on Kaleidoscope either

[next gulch]

Portal will play like 2042

[arctic grove]

portal will play like warzone

[next gulch]

same UI, same gunplay. You can tweak it, but it's all the same

[vocal tusk]

Oh, thats really nice design

[arctic grove]

i have a feeling portal will flop lol

Will early access be the full game or just one of 2 maps

[next gulch]

it will flop unless they let us rent servers

[arctic grove]

they.. wont? isnt that the whole point

[wide shore]

Awww man. I was hoping that if I played on Arica Harbor, the gameplay would become super heavy and cumbersome.

[proven igloo]

The full game without the day 1 patch.

[restive trail]

Itll flop if we stop bitching about it and give it a chance

[vocal tusk]

Renting is almost pointless when you or anyone in your group/clan can start up a passworded server whenever you want

[arctic grove]

Okay thank you

[arctic grove]

dont do it

When even is early access

[next gulch]

lmao really? I guess your clan is the only ones who's gonna play on your server then

[arctic grove]

if they wont let us rent servers wtf is even the point???

[arctic grove]

Pretty sure not this Friday coming up but the next

[next gulch]

It's a joke there's no server rentals, what a waste of time making Portal just to release it handicapped

[vocal tusk]

Well yes, Im part of a clan with 500 active members

[arctic grove]

good for you

@arctic grove aight thanks

[arctic grove]

True lol but I seen footage of Marines in Afghanistan getting shot in the head with helmet 🪖 I bet it was 308.

[next gulch]

@wide shore You can prolly modify the server so it can kind of feel like that, but it won't be the same

[restive trail]

yeah it is 2 fridays from now

[restive trail]

Heyo

[sullen inlet]

no helmet saves you from 308 like WHAT AHHAAHAH

[arctic grove]

Preload is 11th Nov at 7 AM NZDT

Early Acces launch is Nov 12 at 9 PM NZDT

[restive trail]

never said it saved u

[upper wadi]

no longer at 19th?

[arctic grove]

Lol yeah but hey you get shot in the head now you can maybe remember 4 x 4

[proven igloo]

19th is the official release, 12th is early access.

[arctic grove]

Early access is the key word in that sentence my guy ❤️

[arctic grove]

Lol 🤣🤣

19th is day one patch

[vocal tusk]

There is also a day 0 patch, for early access

[restive trail]

Wonder if theres gonna be patches before the 19th

[arctic grove]

🤷‍♂️

[vocal tusk]

Yes lol

[upper wadi]

thanks ^^ sorry didnt read that clearly @proven igloo @arctic grove

[sullen inlet]

one thing I learned from eft, when someone pulls up with 308 and gets the first hit on you: you are mostly back iin lobby

[arctic grove]

No sweat boo

[arctic grove]

Lol high ttk

[restive trail]

Low you mean

high ttk is like taking a lot of shots to kill

[next gulch]

low ttk > high ttk

[sullen inlet]

m61 is legit one tap to head and double tap to torso on any range

with any armor

[arctic grove]

#RemoveSpecialists

[restive trail]

medium TTK is best

[next gulch]

BF1's ttk was perfect until the 1% whined about it

[restive trail]

whats an M61

[sullen inlet]

ammo type

of .308

[restive trail]

oh okay
