battlefield-2042

[arctic grove]

tom henderson

[vestal lichen]

Oh yeah lol

[inland yew]

if so, that might be a bit excessive

[tame cobalt]

Still, I'm confident we'll get at least a couple more cool weather events

[vestal lichen]

The destruction quality is definitely better but it doesn't apply to everything so that the maps don't become as wide open than usual

[flat charm]

The tom green show on MTV. I miss the 90's.

[inland yew]

Wil US and Russia be the only two factions?

[vestal lichen]

after everyone just C5s the middle building

[tame cobalt]

[arctic grove]

basically saying there are multiple skyscrapers getting leveled which is just absolutely insane

[tame cobalt]

Yes, the are the only remaining superpowers in the world of 2042

[vestal lichen]

oh that must've been speculation from late 2020 - early 2021 due to that one EA video that demonstrated some new tech

[flat charm]

Anyone else here miss the 90s?

[vestal lichen]

or just maybe it's something we haven't seen yet

hourglass levolution for multiple skyscrapers probably?

[desert elbow]

I wasn't even born then haha

[arctic grove]

maybe , idk

[vestal lichen]

Only time will tell

only time left is 1-2 weeks

[arctic grove]

it still a possibility but very very unlikely imo

[flat charm]

I might be considered grandpa then. I am only 34 but yet I feel 40.

[vestal lichen]

yeah mostly unlikely for last-current and next gen

it's just too much to handle as you can see in that one clip of discarded where a piece of a concrete building gets blown up
so much frame drops

[wise zodiac]

I want an avalanche, but I hate snow maps. Can't see shit in them lmao

[vestal lichen]

they're trying to make it look as real as possible while keeping it at something that won't make your pc blow up

[arctic grove]

i hope there will be thousands and thousands of players playing this game 5 years from now , and it's remembered as one of the best like BF3 BF4 ...

[tame cobalt]

It was nice to see what it looks like inside the ship when the side gets pulled off 👌

That's a pretty neat little piece of levelution

[desert elbow]

Nah I don't think 30 is too old, I suppose it may just feel like it for yourself at the moment

[azure lodge]

Battlefield 2042 | Release (Gold/Ultimate)
Releases <t:1636704000:R> (<t:1636704000:F>) Exact time is an estimate

[vestal lichen]

yeah
there'll be a slight split in the community based on the whole specialists vs classes thing so who knows who will stay until 2023's battlefield

[flat charm]

I am older than most of the ea or dice workers (most of them). They are in their 20s mostly.

[tame cobalt]

Renewal's tank playground

[desert elbow]

Yeah I suppose a lot of the older game devs are trying out new things, although just cuz the current ones are young doesn't make them bad

[vestal lichen]

I have no idea why the screen going black at the end feels so funny lol

[tame cobalt]

Why they have a lighthouse in the middle of a desert tho

[vestal lichen]

well it's 2042

[bold venture]

https://youtu.be/Lj9LLUUuKqg

[vestal lichen]

probably used to have water

but then

global warming

[tame cobalt]

https://tenor.com/view/future-squidward-spongebob-gif-4767609

[tame cobalt]

no it's the Egyptian desert

[glossy storm]

Will ray-traced reflections be there?

[vestal lichen]

oh

okay what the actual fuck then lol

[glossy storm]

Or is it just RTAO?

[flat charm]

Ray trace slows things down. DLSS is where it's at.

[vestal lichen]

I mean they probably have to deal with those silly battlefield moments where the boats are flying instead of floating on water

[vocal tusk]

No RT reflections at launch

[tame cobalt]

It's part of the synseco energy renewal facility i guess, not sure what the function is tho

[vestal lichen]

Can't wait to see how bad optimization will be at launch until then

[still vault]

There's inconsistent messaging there because they have used RTX interchangeably with DXR as well since it came out. That's my point, RTX advertising is a mess, and probably on purpose to confuse people 😄

[vestal lichen]

minimum specs players will be crying

[flat charm]

Even though I don't have a GPU that supports DLSS. I use my xbox series s that does.

[tame cobalt]

The X in RTX stands for Etcetera

[inland yew]

i mean as long as its better than beta we good

[visual kite]

Why reliese be on 8 am .......

[radiant echo]

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FDHPPTkWUAA8TNd?format=jpg&name=4096x4096

[stray hollow]

I hear a lot of people had performance issues but for me it was just ine

[visual kite]

Ppl work u know

[stray hollow]

Fine

[echo yew]

Awful trailer

[tame cobalt]

Discarded moment

[echo yew]

Fuck nvidia lol

[flat charm]

I am actually above minimum specs. Not below, not average, but above.

[radiant echo]

[vocal tusk]

Yeah...it was mostly a buzzword for nvidia when only they could do RT acceleration on 20 series, but there are RT accelerations that are RTX only...if that makes sense. So nvidia market it as such (Even though the RT itself is DXR)

[echo yew]

turning rtx off as soon as i get my hands on this game

[vestal lichen]

my gtx 1060 and i7 couldn't handle the beta at lowest settings so please don't let people who will actually buy the game with my specs suffer

[lucid goblet]

@vestal lichen just for you

[glossy storm]

Sorta agree, since they were reusing clips from the reveal trailer.

[echo yew]

also i find it kind of sad how this game is now getting blasted with dislikes

[glossy storm]

I expected full gameplay, but eh...

[tame cobalt]

Discarded got that bf1 artstyle vibe, kinda

[vestal lichen]

Thanks!

[stray hollow]

My RTx 2060 could run it at ultra just fine

[vestal lichen]

cool

what's your processor though

[stray hollow]

R 3700x

[inland yew]

i mean i have a 2060 super and an i5 10400f and it ran ok

[echo yew]

I had good performance on my 2080 super but holy shit i am not going with nvidia’s bullshit here

[vestal lichen]

Nvidia used an i9 CPU which is probably why they had better frames than me lol

[echo yew]

if this game can’t top 60 fps then it truly shows we’re fucked

[flat charm]

I tried to put it on ultra on beta but it had network lag for strange reason.

[vestal lichen]

game is a CPU hog so you're gonna need an excellent CPU for some good frames

[tame cobalt]

performance will likely keep improving after launch

[potent hazel]

I have a jar of dirt.

[echo yew]

You realize that means excluding a massive crowd that does not have access to those absurd GPUs?

[floral aspen]

Is Gold Preorder worth it to y'all? I'm 2nd guessing if the additional benefits would be worth it....

[echo yew]

And nvidia has not cared about getting their GPUs into actual gamer hands instead of cryptobros and scalpers

[flat charm]

Awesome. Got some worms too?

[vestal lichen]

this is what im concerned about

[inland yew]

not in my opinion

[potent hazel]

No. Too expensive to feed.

[echo yew]

not a valid excuse, if the game can’t run well at launch it’s DOA

[stray hollow]

If they optimize the game like doom they're golden

[vestal lichen]

it will probably be defib'd after some optimizations are made after launch but the poor frames have kind of ruined it for some consumers

[tame cobalt]

good joke

[inland yew]

what do you define as poor frames?

[vestal lichen]

the way the game runs for GTX-RTX and CPUs is just so inconsistent

[vocal tusk]

Quit bitching about trailer performance and judge the game when it releases

[vestal lichen]

literally unplayable level of frames

below 30

[hazy vector]

even the most fucked of games will have plenty of die hards playing it

[floral aspen]

Early access would be awesome though, I'd love to play a week early but the skins, etc. Don't have me convinced

[stray hollow]

Real shit 🥶

[vestal lichen]

WITH STUTTERS TOO

[solar vine]

Ive had extremely much problem with bf 2042 during beta so I’m literally not gonna play it

[inland yew]

the question is if a week is worth the extra cash

[stray hollow]

Bf2042 on the Nintendo switch

[vestal lichen]

except the diehards that prefer classes for AoW

then again they could play portal

[tame cobalt]

So what are you doing here?

[potent hazel]

Oh yeah.

[vestal lichen]

but that does divide the crowd

[desert elbow]

What problems did you have?

[floral aspen]

That's true, like $30 for 7 days does make it feel too steep

[vestal lichen]

i mean
the game is out in 11 days for early access

[echo yew]

If this were an indie game i’d agree, but this is EA DICE we’re talking about.

[hazy vector]

EA is not the same as DICE

[topaz crown]

It won't be DOA, as I'll be playing it, I've been playing BF since Bad Company, and still love every single one apart from 5, I'm glad for 2042

[hazy vector]

EA is just hitting DICE with a broom to work faster and make them money

[tame cobalt]

And this trailer wasn't recorded today. And performance optimisation is the last part of development

[hazy vector]

it should be yes, but usually it's bug squashing

[potent hazel]

Yeah, I wonder if there are going to be any DLCs.

[vestal lichen]

unfortunately plans change and things may not be so ahead of schedule as usual

[desert elbow]

To be fair Frostbite usually has good optimisation

[echo yew]

Listen i still have a fuckload of hype for 2042, i preordered Ultimate edition, but this trailer is not a good look

[hazy vector]

they're called battlepasses now

[inland yew]

i mean i don't have that money to spend just to get a week more playtime. But i mean if you can spend the money and utilize the extra time then it's probably alright

[tame cobalt]

It's both, as it should be

[potent hazel]

:[

[echo yew]

At this point anything is better than call of duty though

[vocal tusk]

Game is gold, day zero patches submitted, so just wait til release to see the performance levels and optimization.

[fervent grotto]

Yea most games anymore don’t have payed dlcs

[hazy vector]

but even then, the content that's not skins is going to be "free" as it's funded by skin buyers

[vestal lichen]

I think leaks may have rushed the DICE and EA

[hot raptor]

I also bought the ultimate edition

[vestal lichen]

probably could've had an end of year release if they didn't have to announce it after a leak a week prior to the reveal

[vestal lichen]

just a bit more time

[topaz crown]

That trailer is from an old build, if you saw their blog you'd an updated UI, customization etc

[onyx oar]

That's a pretty low bar to begin with lol

[fervent grotto]

I mean vanguard beta was pretty good and they fixed tons of things already. I’m just excited to play both

[jaunty nest]

just before you preorder you can play early access through ea play Pro so just do that lol

then make a decision based on that

[vocal tusk]

What trailer?

[hazy vector]

the one that was posted in here like 5 minutes ago

the nvidia one

[topaz crown]

The only trailer I seen was their last gameplay one

[echo yew]

Vanguard is more fun than MW and CW But it’s just another cod for the year

[vestal lichen]

yeah optimization looks way better in the updated ones
just a bit worrying that we don't know when in development these clips were recorded since it's all they've got and it doesn't look too great on em

[onyx oar]

wait a minute I recognize that pewpew

[vocal tusk]

If you know someone with discord nitro, or have discord nitro..dont forget you just got 2 months free gamepass ultimate...this includes the 10 hours trial for 2042 in early access

[echo yew]

Also SBMM will fuck over vanguard after a few weeks

Because actikek

[vestal lichen]

yeah

[fervent grotto]

I don’t know about more fun then Mw, we haven’t even played the full game

[echo yew]

MW is kind of a sweatfest right now

[vestal lichen]

At this point Sledgehammer and Treyarch have just become filler content studios for Activision

[fervent grotto]

I like it

[echo yew]

Wont even talk about warzone

[hazy vector]

i think all promotional material we'll see is going to be half beta captured, half insider builds that DICE themselves uses or that go out to people like nvidia

[echo yew]

Treyarch should have delayed Cold War

[topaz crown]

Vanguard will also be a sweatfest

[echo yew]

By like 2 years lol

[vestal lichen]

you mean Activision should've

[echo yew]

Cod is a sweatfest now

[fervent grotto]

They can’t, activison owns them

[vestal lichen]

infact TREYARCH SHOULD'VE NEVER GOTTEN TO DEVELOP COLD WAR
IT WASN'T THEIR PROJECT TO BEGIN WITH

[topaz crown]

CW should've never existed, only good thing on there was Zombies and Campaign

[potent hazel]

Have you seen the Sig Sauer in Vanguard?

[echo yew]

acti obviously wants to cater to the tryhard eSports crowd

[potent hazel]

That was hilarious.

[vital cloud]

people were already sweating during the beta lmao

[vestal lichen]

in the executions lol

[topaz crown]

Everyone is hyped for tonight's leak about MW 2022, probably be the same trash

[potent hazel]

Yeah.

[echo yew]

and are more focused on the competitive aspect to keep their games alive rather than the fun element

[fervent grotto]

It was a beta glitch. It replaced the base pistol load for the 1911

[potent hazel]

Maybe

[vestal lichen]

this is infinity ward we're talking about
activision's favorite boy among the 3 currently so we'll see

[echo yew]

MW2022 has a lot of potential

[potent hazel]

Ohh, I actually liked it in there LOL

[topaz crown]

I played early access and it was decent and not sweaty then the open one came out and there was sweats every single lobby

[potent hazel]

Me too

[vestal lichen]

there's been some talk about it being more "tactical" and junk

[echo yew]

they just have to NOT do the same awful map design and footsteps, aswell as make the ttk a bit slower

[vestal lichen]

yeah

[topaz crown]

COD hasn't been the same since BO2, why is everyone still vouching for it?

[fervent grotto]

That’s the problem with all games right now. No one is playing games to have fun anymore. It all about becoming the next big streamer

[hazy vector]

because brand loyalty

same for battlefield, or wow, or any other big franchice

[vestal lichen]

Cause like battlefield fans
cod fans want the games of their favorite franchise to succeed

[fervent grotto]

Because they like to play cod?

[echo yew]

I’ve skipped cod forever until 2020 with MW and skipped CW and vanguard too lol

[topaz crown]

I agree IW make better MPs, as long as it's like MW2 / MW3 I'd be happy

[echo yew]

cod should focus on fun

they can have a ranked playlist with competitive eSports shit

[fervent grotto]

The problem is Activision

[vestal lichen]

and innovation after a long while
even if there's some hate for it

[topaz crown]

But then they complain about it

[hazy vector]

the problem is almost always the publisher

[potent hazel]

Yeah.

[fervent grotto]

Battlefield players also complain?

[vestal lichen]

like certain battlefield fans?

[vestal lichen]

"We are brothers, Mason. We are the same."

[echo yew]

Tbf alot of MW’s bad design choices were on Infinity Ward, specially Joe Cecot

[fervent grotto]

The problem is that people will complain no matter what.

There’s no making everyone happy

[potent hazel]

Yup

[potent hazel]

Sometimes

[spiral viper]

Almost every fanbase complains, nothing special

[fervent grotto]

Exactly

[potent hazel]

Yup

[vestal lichen]

hopefully there'll be a solution for casual and competitive audiences like halo infinite for both battlefield and cod somewhere down the line of games

[topaz crown]

The only game I've complained about is BF5, but yeah I can see that, I'm a COD and BF fan, but to be fair I don't like the way COD is going anymore

[fervent grotto]

There was a ranked mode implemented into Cold War, but for some ungodly reason they still kept sbmm in casual

[onyx oar]

A wise man once told me: Try to please everyone and you end up pleasing no one.

[vestal lichen]

They've lost the incentive to innovate when all they get is hate at this point
Activision no likey when you lose a cent in sales

[potent hazel]

I dont complain about battlefield games, i think they are just great

[radiant echo]

5.2

[vestal lichen]

I hope specialist's faction indicators are better at launch

[onyx oar]

yo i love numbers

[vestal lichen]

haven't seen much of it in action

[fervent grotto]

The numbers mason, what do they mean

[radiant echo]

[onyx oar]

[potent hazel]

Good question

[radiant echo]

The Christmas update for BF5 2019

Ruined the game

[spiral viper]

What'd they do?

[fervent grotto]

I respect anyone who got gold on the infrared sniper in BF5

That thing is horrible

[radiant echo]

They changed the TTK

[fervent grotto]

I love Bf5

[spiral viper]

Oh yeeah

[radiant echo]

Which made it longer to get kills

[fervent grotto]

I have many hours sunk into it

With a gold boys at in my hand

I love when games add snipers or guns that are so overly powerful

[spiral viper]

Yeah I enjoy bf5 a lot, despite what other ppl say, i have fun playing it

[fervent grotto]

Like the panzerbusche

[radiant echo]

I'm not disappointed cuz of the update itself but cuz they did it year earlier and promised not to it again that's where I lost faith

[potent hazel]

Which was your first BF game?

[radiant echo]

BF4

[fervent grotto]

BF1

[potent hazel]

BF3

[spiral viper]

Bad company 2

[vestal lichen]

christmas noobs edition

[radiant echo]

Lol yeah true

[fervent grotto]

I played it for a like a couple of days and then got battlefield 5 gifted to me by a friend

[onyx oar]

bf heroes

[fervent grotto]

And we played multiple days of bf5 together

[spiral viper]

Bf Heroes was mad fun lol

If you remove the pay to win aspect

[fervent grotto]

And I tried BF4 and had fun

[subtle iron]

I'm a disgrace I got bf5 when it was on sale, bf4 was also on sale but I choose bf5.

[onyx oar]

It was but it's def the blacksheep in the family hahaha

[narrow osprey]

BF2 circa 2005, still one of thebest

[fervent grotto]

Probably have like 7-9 hours in BF4

[narrow osprey]

800+ myself lol

[spiral viper]

You can check stats here

[onyx oar]

eh don't be so hard on yourself, as long as you dont say BF free to play you good fam

[potent hazel]

I have around 500 hours in bf4

[fervent grotto]

I have that much time and more in MW

[potent hazel]

Yeah.

[narrow osprey]

It is inevitable

[fervent grotto]

When you really think about how much time you play video games it’s crazy

[subtle iron]

battlefield free to play was doomed once it had free to play in the name

[potent hazel]

Nice amount of kills bro

[potent hazel]

Yeah

[spiral viper]

Thx, my bro has like 20k on bf3 tho lol

[potent hazel]

What battlefield do you think its the worst

[potent hazel]

Holy cow

[still vault]

It was a worse version of a game that was already out there and popular.

[spiral viper]

Jesus 800h

[vestal lichen]

Battlefield 3
when i was younger I watched my dad play it late at night

[fervent grotto]

Why is there no BF5 one

That kinda sucks

[radiant echo]

Is the bot supposed to work here too lol

[potent hazel]

Uhm, can someone teach me howto show my stats please?

[spiral viper]

There is

[onyx oar]

it's more 🙂

[narrow osprey]

just do / and the game

[vestal lichen]

type /bf(insert number here)

[narrow osprey]

it will show u

[radiant echo]

Ello Zy 👋

[slim quiver]

Heyo

[radiant echo]

I love the game can't help it

[narrow osprey]

lol namesake

[slim quiver]

Ah yea

[potent hazel]

What number?

[fervent grotto]

The number battfeild

[onyx oar]

69

[fervent grotto]

Naw I enjoyed my time playing my Xbox

[potent hazel]

Not really

[fervent grotto]

It’s a hobby

It’s not really depressing

[narrow osprey]

like this (/bf4) without the brackets

[potent hazel]

no

[fervent grotto]

Battlefield 69

[potent hazel]

4?

[onyx oar]

this chat has just turned into #stats

[vestal lichen]

which battlefield have you played?

[spiral viper]

Yup

[fervent grotto]

Yea you can put battlefield 4 3 5 etc.

[potent hazel]

Haha, ok

[potent hazel]

Got it

[narrow osprey]

When is next reveal trailer out?

[fervent grotto]

I have 1,800 hours in fortnite

[fervent grotto]

But me and my bother used to share accounts

[onyx oar]

reveal trailer? bit too late for that buddy

[fervent grotto]

Lol

[narrow osprey]

No theres another 3 more maps to come buddy...

[potent hazel]

YAY, it worked

[chrome terrace]

Sorry. Due to an issue, Battlefield 1 stats are only available for PC/Origin. This will hopefully be resolved soon.

[fervent grotto]

Dang

[white loom]

Watching the new rtx trailer gets me worried for optimization

[spiral viper]

Not really, orbital we saw, hourglass was the gameplay trailer and thats it i think

[potent hazel]

keep in mind tat i had another account with 200 hours but i lost it...

[unborn cave]

Not bad

[potent hazel]

Anyone here plays on ps3?

[spiral viper]

I still have it

[radiant echo]

@next isle Is it alright for the stats bot to work here cuz that wasn't here before irrc

[sweet mountain]

Ayo guys

[spiral viper]

It was here before

[sweet mountain]

Will bf 2042 have keyboard and mouse support on console?

Cuz my pc cant run it lmao

[radiant echo]

I mean in this specific channel

[spiral viper]

Maybe idk

[radiant echo]

nope

[next isle]

For stats, go to #stats

[spiral viper]

Yeah it was here, idk why but it worked here as well

[white loom]

Lol

[next isle]

@white loom

[sweet mountain]

Welp, guess im dealing with controller

[next isle]

Read

[radiant echo]

So it wasn't working in this channel right ??

[next isle]

Thanks to Discord, it is

[wise zodiac]

If you're going to use the stats bot, use it in #stats.

[radiant echo]

Or it was and no one realized that

[white loom]

I didn’t see sorry

[sweet mountain]

Will it be hard to be good on controller?

[radiant echo]

Slash commands

[spiral viper]

Depends on if you played with controller?? Idk

[radiant echo]

nah Watch the Broken machine

[tame cobalt]

Yeah man can't wait to play 2042 on my ps3

[potent hazel]

Neither.

[sweet mountain]

I mean, ive played bfv and bf1 on controller, but i got bf4 on my pc and kbm seems a lot easier

[radiant echo]

guys

#stats

[tame cobalt]

can't the admins disable stats outside of stats channel?

[radiant echo]

Slash commands are broken

[potent hazel]

Nice

[spiral viper]

Honestly it comes down to your preference, pc movement is so much smoother that console, but console has aim assist so idk lool

[grave fox]

Quick question gentlemen. Will we be able to play the 64 players server on next gen?

[spiral viper]

No

[onyx oar]

portal yeet

[wise zodiac]

As in 32v32?

[spiral viper]

Maybe in portal

[onyx oar]

or you think about playing between new gen and old gen?

[tame cobalt]

You will be able to play 64 player servers just like last gen, but you won't be able to play on the same servers as them 👍

[wise zodiac]

From my understanding, yes, if you purchased the bundle that includes the current gen game.

[grave fox]

Yes

[radiant echo]

In portal you can

[arctic grove]

I brought hacks are you ashamed of meh I turned evil🤔

[white loom]

Bf 2042 biggest issue should be optimization

[onyx oar]

@grave fox why would you play with 64 players on such huge maps tho?

[radiant echo]

Or if there is a ConquestSmall mode

[white loom]

I saw the game lagging on rtx cards

[vital cloud]

pre ban applied

[onyx oar]

in the beta?

[arctic grove]

Jk I'm an FBI agent lol

[white loom]

New pc trailer

[frozen root]

No 120Hz support for consoles?

[grave fox]

Wouldn’t they make the maps smaller to fit 64 players?

[white loom]

Sadly yes

They don’t sopport 120 fps

[onyx oar]

timestamp?

[frozen root]

helicopter scene

full of it

[arctic grove]

I'm looking for new recruits for fbi react team I see you gamers having 1.0+ kd ratio you can do good job on the field

[onyx oar]

for old gen, yes

[sweet mountain]

Does console atleast got an fov slider?

[white loom]

0:16

[hazy vector]

why would console get any FOV slider at all?

[white loom]

0:34

[vestal lichen]

hey guys try shooting at the sun in 2042 see if that makes the map go night mode

[white loom]

I still don’t get why people don’t think 2042 needs a delay

Just delay it to around christmas so they have time for optimization

[sweet mountain]

Well considering battlefields on console in the past have had fov sliders...

[fallen geode]

what are you basing this off?

[hazy vector]

i sincerely doubt 2 months would be enough

[white loom]

Nvidas rtx card show case video, personal experience and others experience

[arctic grove]

Because it can do it and past battlefield games have had it

[fallen geode]

the latter two are irrelevant - you've only experienced the beta

[slim quiver]

I wouldn’t mind another delay tbh

No problem in needing more time

[white loom]

The rtx showcase had frequent frame drops in the trailer

[arctic grove]

Don't jinx it please I need a new game to play

[radiant echo]

same but they won't

Q4 this year no matter what

[slim quiver]

I mean I’d rather have a polished game than one that was rushed out

[fallen geode]

which for all we know has probably been fixed with optimisation

[dreamy hornet]

I mean... The new consoles have an Apu
I hoped for a 120 Hz mode but ig that's not happening

[white loom]

How would you know

[arctic grove]

I hope DICE delay battlefield 2042

[fallen geode]

basic common sense

[white loom]

If the game drops with poor optimization

[slim quiver]

With the CPU taken into account not really possible

[radiant echo]

Guys no delay in 2 weeks release lol it's too late

[white loom]

LMAO

[slim quiver]

Oh yeah I believe this

[dreamy hornet]

Anyways, u want all features and 120 fps along with 128 players
Gotta switch to pc lol

[white loom]

Dude bf games always have dog shit releases

[arctic grove]

That's the thing it won't ever be polished unless its delayed for another year and it would still have bugs because programming is hard and even if they polish it people will find something to complain about

[white loom]

So why don’t they change it up

[slim quiver]

Though there were games that get delayed like 1 week before release, I just don’t think BF will be one of them

[white loom]

And actually release a product that is functional

[radiant echo]

yeah prp

[wise zodiac]

Hi everyone!

Hope you're doing well

[slim quiver]

Oh idc about bugs lol. I just care about changes and balancing concerns etc

[radiant echo]

Elden ring plz don't get delayed

[white loom]

Gotta cash in on those black friday sales…

[radiant echo]

Ey Xero

[slim quiver]

Elden ring got delayed already

[hazy vector]

i recall the oooold bf games (1942, 2 and 2142) only getting like three patches or something.

[slim quiver]

It’s February 25th now

[radiant echo]

I mean again

[slim quiver]

Oh yeah

[dreamy raft]

[radiant echo]

We should see some gameplay this month tho

[onyx oar]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DzRVM4QZ058

[slim quiver]

Elden ring is really the game I’m looking forward to the most

[tame cobalt]

I'm gonna stop playing previous bfs at least a week before launch. Just so i can go in feeling fresh

[onyx oar]

thats the good stuff

[buoyant mirage]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lj9LLUUuKqg

[wise zodiac]

They released the new trailer for "The Book of Boba Fett"

[arctic grove]

No mp game in the last 10 years has ever correctly balanced things

[slim quiver]

No MP game ever really

[buoyant mirage]

the game even runs shit in the trailer

[hazy vector]

balancing "perfectly" is impossible

[onyx oar]

witcher season 2 coming up soon

[slim quiver]

Which is fine because I just care about the game feeling good when I play it

[hazy vector]

unless everyone has the same stick

[radiant echo]

[tame cobalt]

I only care about fun gameplay and fun maps

[hazy vector]

and then people bitch about the colour of the stick

[slim quiver]

But either way I’d still rather want a polished game than a rough launch

[sweet mountain]

Would bf2042 run well on a xbox one?..

[radiant echo]

We all do

But that's not how it works

[hazy vector]

we already know it'll have smaller maps and less players

[white loom]

Issues that haven’t been addressed by Dice
Optimization
The wall hack specialist
Destruction
A lot of the other bugs
Optimization on old gen

[slim quiver]

To me BF isn’t the only new game to play so releasing early isn’t my priority. Plenty of games to play. But if it’s the only game you care about, yeah that’s a RIP

[tame cobalt]

Destruction HAS been addressed.

[dreamy raft]

If you've played the beta you'd know it

[fallen geode]

correction - issues that haven't publicly been addressed by DICE

[white loom]

Sort of

[white loom]

Yeah publicly

[tame cobalt]

Not "sort of"

[fallen geode]

therefore, they may not even be issues anymore

[hazy vector]

and you can only optemise so much on older consoles untill you run out of console

[white loom]

Orbital didn’t have too much destructibility

And we haven’t seen the other maps too much

[tame cobalt]

Which is not an issue.

[white loom]

So we have very little in terms of known destruction

[arctic grove]

lol the fuckin mare's leg is back

[brittle forge]

Seemingly bad destruction is just cause Orbital doesn’t have much to destroy. The other maps seem much better for it

[fallen geode]

they've said that destruction will be around BFV levels

[onyx oar]

wall hack specialist is already getting nerfed
bugs are always being worked on
optimization is being worked on obviously both old gen and new gen
This is basic stuff gamestudios do, expect them to be working with all these things

[arctic grove]

Hi

[white loom]

I dunno. A lot of thr other maps seem like a bunch of siege of shanghai’s

[tame cobalt]

You don't want the couple buildings orbital has to be completely destroyed. It would be a dumb level design choice.

[arctic grove]

Garlic sauce

[onyx oar]

with?

kebab?

[white loom]

There is no way they will fix it in time

[arctic grove]

Butter heated bread

[white loom]

If they do

[arctic grove]

i honestly wish the battlebot wouldnt show me the option to preorder ultimate when i ask for the release since i already did so

[white loom]

Consider me impressed

[brittle forge]

tbqh I wouldn’t touch the last-gen version of this game with a ten-foot pole

[fallen geode]

you really are jumping the gun with a lot of the stuff you're claiming here

chill out

[white loom]

I an worried

[fallen geode]

just have faith

[white loom]

I am really wanting the game

[onyx oar]

I mean that's common sense imo. DICE shouldnt have released the game there at all

[white loom]

But if the game flops

[arctic grove]

Man there are several things bf2042 needs tweaking about

[white loom]

By the time it’s good a large number of the player base it could have had will be gone

[hazy vector]

everyone is because we don't have an exact time frime for any of the clips of gameplay footage. the most we know is that the beta was a branch from "somewhere in august"

[arctic grove]

For starters remove the third person, cod-style takedowns

[uneven needle]

hello

[tame cobalt]

Conquest small on next gen looks to be quite fun tho 👌

[potent hazel]

Hi

[white loom]

Those break so damn easily it’s comedic

[arctic grove]

infact why not re-implement counter-melee

[potent hazel]

they look cool but

idk

[potent hazel]

yeah

[brittle forge]

There are much bigger problems than that tbh, I just want the game to run well and have most of the beta bugs fixed

[potent hazel]

that was great

[carmine elbow]

Where is lean

[fallen geode]

can't disagree here - counter melee had its problems, but it's tried and tested

[hazy vector]

nah, just take out all takedown animations and give us the ability to quick no animation knife takedowns again

[potent hazel]

Whos lean

[hazy vector]

backstabbing galore

[brittle forge]

The countermelee in BF4 sucked

[arctic grove]

Me too, but there also game mechanics that id like to see looked at again

[carmine elbow]

Leaning when aiming

[potent hazel]

yeah

[carmine elbow]

Should've kept bf5 movement

[brittle forge]

I’d prefer if they just kept BF1-style melee

[split schooner]

Then how will they sell those 3rd person view takedowns through battlepass?

[carmine elbow]

Literally no one asked for mw2019 movement

[tame cobalt]

yeah it's "tested"... the results of the test: it's wack

[torpid shuttle]

Wow BF2042 with rtx on is here....

[potent hazel]

ok

[arctic grove]

looks like my neighbourhood ngl

[fallen geode]

mmm, like i said it had its problems. maybe bf3 style instead?

[split schooner]

Just ambient occlusion,no ray traced reflections.

[scenic igloo]

Good looking trailer with pretty weird FPS drops but still

[torpid shuttle]

ok I see

I wish my laptop is fine...

[scenic igloo]

That looks good. Also showcases a new lever-action gun

[scenic igloo]

LMAO

[potent hazel]

Less Gooo

I love lever action

[scenic igloo]

I have a 1650 and a 9th gen i5 and I think I'm f*cked

[potent hazel]

Hope is better that mare leg

[split schooner]

Mare's leg. The gun name is marlin 45-70

[fallen geode]

nah, should be okay

[potent hazel]

Yes, thank you

[subtle iron]

*crashing intensifies *

[torpid shuttle]

Is lever action similar with shotgun (slug shot)?

[scenic igloo]

It looks like it's a Marlin 45-70. Much more powerful than the .44 the Mare's Leg used

[scenic igloo]

Oof

[split schooner]

It's a stock version of mare's leg

Sorta

[potent hazel]

Not really..

[potent hazel]

Because slug is bigger, i think

[arctic grove]

its not a shotgun

[potent hazel]

no

[tacit sphinx]

dozer looking good

[fallen geode]

gotta admit, I love that skin

[potent hazel]

Not my taste

prefer black

[arctic grove]

wdym no

[torpid shuttle]

Well if this game is released, I will try to grind achievement in Portal mode.

[potent hazel]

or cookie. 😄

[tacit sphinx]

i might like the yellow and black more than the red and black we saw ngl

[brittle forge]

They are still having chuggy trailer footage my god lol

[fallen geode]

I wonder what his his high tier mastery will look like

[brittle forge]

the dlss clip was the only that looked like it ran well

[tame cobalt]

Agreed

[split schooner]

Nah black and red rocks

[potent hazel]

Black or cookie

[woeful python]

put boba fett in 2042 and i'll forgive everything else

[tacit sphinx]

i mean the red is still really clean

[arctic grove]

its not that hard to tell you know

[tacit sphinx]

just the yellow is also very nice

[potent hazel]

yeah

[potent hazel]

dont like it

[split schooner]

Oh yeah no doubt

[potent hazel]

too... idk

[brittle forge]

Espinoza rockin’ that bumblebee drip

[fallen geode]

the black & yellow looks much more beefy

[potent hazel]

Just dont like it

[tacit sphinx]

like this is dope as well

[naive moth]

Anyone got the roadmap for BF 2042 like what else is coming down the pipeline

[potent hazel]

Much better

[fallen geode]

i wanna see tiers 2-5 too, that'd be interesting to see the evolution

[hazy vector]

the fact that they called it the mastery skin that'll be black and red has me woried, like will there only be a few mastery skins?

[tacit sphinx]

i like the helmet he has in the new image though

[brittle forge]

Nothing like that announced yet unfortunately

[potent hazel]

Not my taste

[split schooner]

Yeah we have datamined info about a map called ||ridge||

[tacit sphinx]

there's 5 mastery skins for every item in the game that can equip skins by the sounds of it

[brittle forge]

The gear he has in the black and yellow image is better, but I like the black and red color scheme better, if that makes sense

[prime smelt]

they should make a super small map post launch, that would be fun and so chaotic

[tacit sphinx]

so the yellow and black may well be t2 on that image

[split schooner]

But the real question is, will we be able to change skins on dozers shield too?

[arctic grove]

i love how im being told at ea.com to preorder while logged in even tho i already preordered ultimate and played the beta until i grinded to level 30

[tacit sphinx]

yeah i get that totally

[tame cobalt]

I'll dm you the map leak

[radiant prism]

where are people finding these images?

[dark marsh]

hwo much is wlft

left

for realse

[split schooner]

10 days

In early access

And 17 for launch

[foggy crest]

BF2042 is also sponsored by Ridge wallet what

[dark marsh]

ok thanks

[tacit sphinx]

honestly, there's a chance that some specialist equipment takes on your equipped skin but i dont think it will be individually customised

[tacit sphinx]

https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/news/battlefield-2042-dlss-ray-tracing-reflex-pc-tech-trailer/ here

there's only like 2 new ones though

[torpid shuttle]

WOW

[arctic grove]

bro im glad the mare leg is returnijng

[split schooner]

I think gadgets will also have skins. Like rocket launcher, and stuff too. And speacialists gadgets too

[prime smelt]

i have a 1080 so i cant use anything D:

[arctic grove]

its such a fucking meme lol

[tacit sphinx]

maybe, it would certainly be interesting

[arctic grove]

i remember trying to play with that on PS3 it was hellish

[torpid shuttle]

By the way I still turn off RTX to turn on FPS.

[split schooner]

Rtx is good for single player mode but in multiplayer, most people will run with rtx off for higher frame rates

[arctic grove]

anyway woo i get to game in 9 days

[split schooner]

10*

[potent hazel]

yeah

[azure lodge]

Battlefield 2042 | Release (Gold/Ultimate)
Releases <t:1636704000:R> (<t:1636704000:F>) Exact time is an estimate

[tacit sphinx]

not that i have the capability, but unless it's for cinematic captures and stuff i wouldnt want to use rtx in multiplayer

[split schooner]

Yep

[gray fjord]

10 days remaining. Nice.

[torpid shuttle]

Everyone ready?

[gray fjord]

Hell yea.

[brittle forge]

Honestly the lever action seems more like the MK2 from modern warfare than the mares leg

[tame cobalt]

wrong

[split schooner]

Pls don't delay the game now dice

[arctic grove]

nope

[potent hazel]

that would suck

[brittle forge]

Probably because it seems like a marlin

[vocal tusk]

Game is already gold and has had two patches validated. It's not getting delayed

[split schooner]

Wait, wasn't mare's leg a secondary gun in previous bf?

[tacit sphinx]

yeah i think people are just going "oh its a lever action? must be the mare's leg" when the mare is a heavily customised setup anyway

[torpid shuttle]

DE-CEM-BER

[foggy crest]

i am always ready for Halo 3

[gray fjord]

BF4

[split schooner]

Ah i know

[arctic grove]

kudos to the guy above who mistook it for a fucking shotgun lmfao

[torpid shuttle]

I am ready for Half Life 3

[foggy crest]

@torpid shuttle but are u ready ?

[brittle forge]

I wish it was getting delayed to be honest I really don’t want another launch mess

[gray fjord]

I preordered the ultimate edition, so I’m all in for 2042.

[split schooner]

Ready for gta definitive edition and bf 2042

[torpid shuttle]

Sure... Gonna clear my work for next week.

[foggy crest]

i wish i had vr for alyx

[gray fjord]

If they ever come out with a VR version of battlefield, it better be BF4.

Pavlov VR but 10x better.

[tacit sphinx]

i don't think they'd ever do a full VR-built game

[gray fjord]

I wish…

[prime smelt]

same

[gray fjord]

I’ll have to stick with DCS until then.😞

[tacit sphinx]

but something like swbf2015 where they made a special VR mission would potentially be interesting

[foggy crest]

who knows what will happen in future bro

[tacit sphinx]

imagine the jet mission from bf3 but VR

[split schooner]

Oh

[brittle forge]

I’m ngl I don’t know why the BF3 jet mission is so well regarded. It’s very cool visually but gameplay-wise it’s a bit of a snooze fest

[arctic grove]

GTA 5 VR confirmed

[opaque whale]

Remember guys just ignore the negative feedback bf got and I hope you enjoy every second of the game

[tacit sphinx]

yeah i think it's mostly just "woah this is cool" and the kinda lesser-seen but very important role that you play in it

[split schooner]

Well i wouldn't say to ignore every negative thing, constructive criticism is a good thing tbh

But there is criticism, and then there is whining

What people are doing with speacialists on social media is literally whining now.

[brittle forge]

I mean if the launch has problems either technically or otherwise negative feedback is going to be necessary

(I think technically is the most likely)

[buoyant trail]

Peppafield:2042

[opaque whale]

Yeah i am not saying that the game is perfect

[brittle forge]

There’s going to be balancing issues I’m sure but that’s relatively minor

[opaque whale]

But it's not that bad as people claim

[torpid shuttle]

I really wonder which game will be released first? GTA6 or Half Life 3.

[split schooner]

Yep, don't worry about balancing, they will balance everything through patches after the game launches because they will have proper feedback

[prime smelt]

i think gta will come out first, im betting it will be out by 2050, while hl3 will probably be out by around 2075

[buoyant trail]

Duke nukem 4 will come first

[brittle forge]

Expect an assault rifle to be extremely overpowered tho, it’s traditional at this point

Lol

[buoyant trail]

Every assault rifle is now the aek

[split schooner]

Well remember one thing, one gun is always overpowered in every fps game

[arctic grove]

Yknow people worry about gunplay in the game like hardcore mode doesn't exist

[foggy crest]

i think knack 3 🤔

[split schooner]

Remember people, portal exists!

[noble ruin]

That's only in Portal though

[arctic grove]

Wahtt

[tacit sphinx]

tbf the AEK is one of the rare occasions where it actually has more recoil in an arcade game than real life

[split schooner]

Dice should remind that to everyone

[brittle forge]

I’m a be real hard-core in this game is probably going to suck based on the way faction distinctions are implemented unless we’re going portal exclusive on that front

[noble ruin]

AOW only has Breakthrough and Conquest

[steady pewter]

haha ak platform go brrrrrrrrr

[foggy crest]

portal 2 also exists

[buoyant trail]

Famas go nyoom

[tacit sphinx]

hardcore modes will most likely be user-created

[arctic grove]

True

[torpid shuttle]

[buoyant trail]

Nice try Gabe newell

[foggy crest]

u want portal 3 ?

[prime smelt]

portal vr when?

[buoyant trail]

Not anymore

[brittle forge]

DICE comes out and reveals that this game was Portal 3 all along and 2042 was a big bamboozle

[steady pewter]

Welcome to Team Fortress 2. After 9 years in development, hopefully it would have been worth the wait. To listen to a commentary node, put your cross hair over the floating commentary symbol and press your primary fire. To stop a commentary node put your cross hair over the rotating node and press the primary fire again. Some commentary nodes may take control of the game in order to show something to you. In these cases, simply press your primary fire again to stop the commentary. In addition, your secondary fire will cycle you through all the commentary nodes in the level. Please let me know what you think after you've had a chance to play. I can be reached at [e-mail] and my favorite class is the Spy. Thanks and have fun!

That tank is seriously under cooked, get that shit of of here

[arctic grove]

LOL

[onyx oar]

rude, I'm a turd sandwich get it right next time

[stray hollow]

Is it possible to run RTX (bf2042) with a rtx2060

[slow kraken]

No

[stray hollow]

Too bad

[arctic grove]

Well

[slow kraken]

That RTX trailer was probably on a 3090 and it was stuttering like hell

[onyx oar]

run? yes
good? no

[slow kraken]

2060 will break if you flick RTX on I assume

[torpid shuttle]

DLSS might help you.

[stray hollow]

To get 30 fps haha

[slow kraken]

lol

[prime smelt]

the game didnt run poorly...

[slow kraken]

Unless you have a 3090 with a good CPU I wouldn't even try turning RTX on

[prime smelt]

i could play medium graphics on a 1080 with 90fps

[stray hollow]

Yeah, but that was without RTX implemented yet

[prime smelt]

i have a 1080

[median coral]

Falck’s HD face model based off the DLSS video

[slow kraken]

The RTX trailer you can see the frames dropping a lot

[brittle forge]

For the hardware I had (3080 and a R9 3900x), yeah it kinda did tbh

[prime smelt]

rtx will probably make it die, you are correct

[slow kraken]

DLSS ON, RTX OFF

[prime smelt]

i have a 1080 and 10900 and i got 90 fps

[lusty creek]

Nice with bits, but anything else

[stray hollow]

But I mean, rtx isn't that important, I mean if you're interested in a few shadows and bloom effects

[brittle forge]

And this latest trailer chugged like crazy

[stray hollow]

What settings?

[prime smelt]

medium

[torpid shuttle]

Human eyes can't see over 24 FPS.

[slow kraken]

This. I was surprised to see RTX on 2042 since it's MP only. I can't see many people having it on

[prime smelt]

i thought it was 90 lmao

[stray hollow]

Yuh, thats why we can differentiate 30 to 60 fps

[torpid shuttle]

:))))

[slow kraken]

I can see 25fps. I must be super human

[brittle forge]

If you’re serious, that claim has been debunked like a shitload of times lol

[steady hound]

how do you do the time intel its out thing

[median coral]

Higher pixel quality

[weak fractal]

I have a 144Hz monitor. I must be an alien

[cloud leaf]

well this sums it up no reflection sadly but we get RTAO

New Falck model is great,

[split schooner]

The real reason bf 2042 was delayed

[potent hazel]

NOW that IS even BETTER

[tender folio]

Florida man specialist whennnnnnnnn?

[gusty sandal]

24 FPS are the Standart and most comfortable record / production speed
when Animation and camera shots where taken literal Space and draw most of the all 24 frames in one sec

[slow kraken]

Yes

[median coral]

[potent hazel]

no

Vtuber specialist better

and peppa of course

[robust stratus]

Can’t wait to play nothing but wall hack Korean and mackay for the entire BF life cycle

[torpid shuttle]

[potent hazel]

YES

[gusty sandal]

guys, seriously, in any future war theres probably someone who at some point on his life did a naruto run XD

[median coral]

Looks like they went back to her beta model

[potent hazel]

Of course

[median coral]

But made her way more HD

[hazy vector]

i wouldn't be suprised if most peopel will have never heard of naruto

[native jacinth]

does xbox game pass ultimate get bf2042 early access?

i wanna know if it still runs like shit

[hazy vector]

can't make more episodes if japan has collapsed

[scenic igloo]

11 days till Mackay spam, everyone?

[robust stratus]

Only guy worth using

[scenic igloo]

Gonna mainly play as Anghel though. He looks f*cking sick

Anghel and Dozer

[foggy canopy]

Future Falck/Sundance main

[brittle forge]

It should cause it comes with some version of EA Play. Do you know which one it comes with?

[gusty sandal]

Reminds me something about Falco and the Winter Soldier
when Bucky mention he knew Gandalf because readed the book when the author was still alive XD

[scenic igloo]

Anghel fits my playstyle of reviving everyone I can

[native jacinth]

bitch basic

so it should be 10h

[scenic igloo]

Dozer prevents Locker's classic grenade spam that we'll definitely see in Portal

[brittle forge]

Yeah that’s what you should get early then

[foggy canopy]

Maps look open enough to not end up like Lockers or Metro

[native jacinth]

i really wanted to buy and enjoy the game from day1 but the trailers they put up have literal 15fps performance and idk how to feel about that
https://youtu.be/Lj9LLUUuKqg?t=34

[scenic igloo]

Also, looks like they nerfed Ji-Soo already

[median coral]

For 10 hours of gameplay yeah

[foggy canopy]

@native jacinth Nobody will use raytracing, so ...

[foggy crest]

i will main widowmaker and reaper

[scenic igloo]

Not sure how, but looks like she either only gets the "walls" when she ADSs or via pulsations that happen every second

[native jacinth]

i mean beta didn't run all that well either and it had no rtx

[slow kraken]

Don't buy early access and see how the game runs before 19th

[scenic igloo]

LOL, that's right

[native jacinth]

i've got game pass ultimate for 1 dollar and it gives me 10 hours of early access

[slow kraken]

Game Pass gives you 10 hours of 2042 on the 12th?

[scenic igloo]

Either an editing mistake or the game struggling in an RTX card to run 30 frames

[still vault]

Yeah I saw. At least there is some of it, was fearing none of the things would make it in.

[native jacinth]

i think so? it comes with ea play and that DOES give you early access

[slow kraken]

Nice

[woeful python]

do you guys think it's worth buying gold edition?

[hidden sand]

Damn that heli scene in the nvidia trailer

[scenic igloo]

That depends

[hidden sand]

I'm genuinely surprised they left that in

[brittle forge]

Yeah you get 10 hours starting at that time, you can play them whenever you want

[scenic igloo]

Do you like cosmetics?

[scenic igloo]

LMAO

[gloomy nimbus]

You guys like battlefield?

Ever heard of it?

[woeful python]

I think so

[scenic igloo]

What's that?

[gloomy nimbus]

It is like call of dooty but with car

[brittle forge]

Personally I’m probably gonna play five hours of the trial in early access and the other five after the day one patch to see what happens

[scenic igloo]

If that's the case it is

[gloomy nimbus]

And occasional game breaking balance issues

[scenic igloo]

You get 4 battle passes and currently you also get pre-order bonuses

[split schooner]

Yes. You get a 1 year worth of battlepass, that's 4 season battlepasses, and 4 skins( including irish skin) and more additional stuff. It's pretty good value. Oh and you also get access to early launch which is 7 days early than simple launch of the game.

[scenic igloo]

Plus some cool bundles

[slow kraken]

I don't want to pay an extra £30 to get the game 1 week early. So I could just pay £4 to get EA Play for 1 month and play on the 12th then buy the game on the 19th

[gusty sandal]

i heard was more like Medal of Honor but Multiplayer oriented and have vehicles... i dunno what cod is

[scenic igloo]

And that sexy ACB-90

[woeful python]

well if i preorder do I get early acees or is that with gold?

[scenic igloo]

Gold gives you Early Access

Ig

[hidden sand]

EA Play Standard only lets you play for 10 hours total

[gloomy nimbus]

Cod is like fortnite but with less (more) children

[onyx oar]

It's not Early Access if everyone buys the Gold Edition

[scenic igloo]

And ONLY Gold... and Ultimate

[woeful python]

then maybe i'll get it

[brittle forge]

If you’re confident in the game launching well, it seems like the best value for money. If you’re unsure of the launch it’s kinda a gamble no matter what edition you buy, so you might want to wait to see how others fare

[split schooner]

You can't convince everyone to buy gold edition though can you

[scenic igloo]

It's a good deal if you're impatient like me

[slow kraken]

That's fine. I'll probably only put 10 hours in from the 12th to 19th as I'll be playing GTA also

[gloomy nimbus]

Ninja diffuse on crash is jolly good fun

[onyx oar]

[split schooner]

yeah point made

[gloomy nimbus]

How much is gold edition?

Because I have a proposition for you

[slow kraken]

£80

[jagged compass]

is progress shared between ea play pro and steam? thinking of buying 1 month of pro to try it out and if I like it I'll buy it on steam after the month ends

[gloomy nimbus]

You convince me to get gold edition by you gifting it to me on steam

[onyx oar]

This is asually the part where someone gets scammed

lol

[steady hound]

its come to my attention that some of you plebs aren't getting the gold ed

[gloomy nimbus]

Not a scam

[brittle forge]

You can buy ea play pro on steam so you’re linked from the get go if you don’t want to bother worrying about transferring it

[radiant prism]

You're right, I'm not

[gloomy nimbus]

Just send me gold edition and 100 dollars

[radiant prism]

I'm buying ultimate

Because fuck my wallet

[steady hound]

what a lame

[gloomy nimbus]

My limo broke down and I need a taxi, I will pay you back when I get home

[jagged compass]

@brittle forge wasnt ea play pro exclusive to origin? I only see the standard ea play on steam

[slow kraken]

Because some of us don't want to pay an extra £30 to play the game 1 week early

[gloomy nimbus]

I am a Saudi prince btw

[woeful python]

I mean what else am I gonna play I was introduced to battlefield with bf5 and have never played a different one and people don't seem to like bf5 so I am very excited to try a "regular" bf game

[gloomy nimbus]

You also get 40 dollaronis of epic fortnite gamer loot from the battle pass

Aka a year long commitment

[brittle forge]

I figured it would be available there but I technically haven’t checked. I imagine it would be but I guess not

[slow kraken]

I'll pass thanks

[steady hound]

you get more then just early access

[gloomy nimbus]

You also get a private meet and greet with me in the back room

[slow kraken]

Yeah but I'd rather see if I like the game instead of paying more for DLC for a game I might not like

[radiant prism]

For me, I knew I was gonna get the game regardless of what happens, so I figured I'd pay more to get some cool skins and some early access stuff

[brittle forge]

I’m just saying “regular BF games” don’t exactly have the best track record when it comes to launches. If you’re going to get it no matter what, then yeah gold edition seems like a good purchase

[gloomy nimbus]

You can refund it if not like enjoying

[hidden sand]

This trailer was the final nail in the coffin for me, gonna wait until launch to see how the game is completely now. I'm not hopeful for good optimization at all. Especially on last gen.

[slow kraken]

I don't mind waiting 1 week. The devs already said there will be a update on the 19th to patch a bunch of stuff so the 12th might be buggy anyway

[brittle forge]

I honestly doubt the last gen version is even going to be all that playable to be honest

[gloomy nimbus]

Waiting one week is for nerds

I need instant gratification

The 2060s were out of stock so I got a 3070

[slow kraken]

Yeah whatever you say

[woeful python]

yeah ik what you mean I think it's a dice thing tho not battlefield cause same thing with battlefront 2 but they always seem to come back so i'll try it

[gloomy nimbus]

Delaying games is cringe

Why delay six months when you could just release a broken game and fix it six months in

We need money now

[slow kraken]

Honestly I feel for people playing on last gen. I just wouldn't bother till you get a new PC or console

[gloomy nimbus]

I want my 4th golden yacht

[hidden sand]

It doesn't remotely surpass BFVs visuals and even looks worse in a lot of areas. If they can't get it to run well, that's on them, not last gen. I'm gonna be so damn frustrated if they don't get it running as well as BFV did.

[gloomy nimbus]

Release the game on everything

Paid DLCs

[arctic grove]

every game is buggy on release i dont know if you knew that

[cloud leaf]

yeah it's good to see

[gloomy nimbus]

Skyrim DS edition

Paid mods

New gta?

[slow kraken]

Yeah but some games have a history of being unplayable at times on release

[gloomy nimbus]

No:

Fuck consumers

[brittle forge]

There’s a difference between buggy and broken tbf

[hazy sun]

So I guess we just got a shadow confirmation that Raytracing is in BF2042, but only ambient occlusion

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lj9LLUUuKqg

[gloomy nimbus]

MW2

[arctic grove]

cyberpunk was playable on release, i beat the game the first week of release

[brittle forge]

Skyrim was “buggy”
BF4 was “broken”

[gray fjord]

For the love of god, I hope that 2042 on the PS5 will implement all of the features regarding the controller.

[hidden sand]

BF1 launched perfectly stable with minimal bugs. This is 4 triple A studios who had 3 years. If it's broken at launch, that would be so embarassing. Here's hoping it works fine.

[gray fjord]

Adaptive triggers, haptic feedback, etc..

[arctic grove]

witcher 3 was broken on release

[gloomy nimbus]

This is true, bc BF4 was broken and Skyrim wasn’t

[gloomy nimbus]

If you look to your left, you can see what appears to be a lie

[brittle forge]

Yeah I was talking to this “every game is buggy at release” guy. There’s quite obviously levels to that

[hidden sand]

What's the point you're making? That it's just fine and we should be okay with that sort of thing?

[gloomy nimbus]

Guys

[gray fjord]

Oh shoot. Bust out the popcorn.

Things are about to go down.

[arctic grove]

Oliver Smith the third

[arctic grove]

my point is you can still enjoy a game that takes years to make

[gray fjord]

[gloomy nimbus]

L

[gloomy nimbus]

This bad thing happened, so this other bad thing is fine

[brittle forge]

Us BF fans have developed Stockholm syndrome for shit releases I swear

[tidal badge]

don't mess with us the bf2042 community, we fucking hate the bf2042 community

[slim quiver]

No that’s just games in general

[arctic grove]

Do you guys hate Dee’s

[brittle forge]

Sure but it seems particularly prevalent here

[tidal badge]

you can legit get banned for this

so don't.

[slim quiver]

That’s just because it’s new

[arctic grove]

whos dees

[potent hazel]

No

Dont ask

[arctic grove]

DeeJohnson

[slim quiver]

When cyberpunk came out people acted like it was the first game to have problems are release

[hidden sand]

No thanks, if this game launches broken I'm not playing it at all. DICE have absolutely no excuses when BF1, a game with less time and devs, launched polished and perfectly stable. If this one isn't, I'm done. Not going through another BFV and Battlefront 2. You sure can, but no thanks from me.

[potent hazel]

Ohh

[gloomy nimbus]

I love dennys

[potent hazel]

K

[arctic grove]

It was the first game to be a cluster fuck dis taster

[arctic grove]

true

[tame cobalt]

Haptics were already in the beta, it was good 👌

[brittle forge]

I respect the fact that dice stands by and usually fixes broken games but the point stands that we shouldn’t be getting messy launches from a AAA studio. We really shouldn’t
