battlefield-2042

[ionic adder]

Did not see the video you are talking about, and yes there are obvious cheaters in the game.

But that being said, on consoles the aim assist while completely broken and barely ever works, sometimes it can lock onto enemies through walls.

[reef kestrel]

I dont want dice to make bc3 now .

[winged blade]

Dice employees are required to eat their steaks well-done, that's why the quality of the game dimished because you get sad when you eat a dry steak.

[cedar sandal]

Also I found a bug earlier today it's pretty funny: https://streamable.com/jmpta3

[floral sand]

Can we make among us a bannable offense?

[near cape]

i hate u

[winged blade]

[reef kestrel]

[glad mist]

get phucked

[cedar sandal]

Also you can get infinite of those grenade launchers

[floral sand]

Like that shit needs to be added to the Geneva convention

[reef kestrel]

I'm Swiss i wont ban it

[delicate token]

[lyric lance]

amogus

[floral sand]

Pacifist

[winged blade]

I like the amongus bird.

[reef kestrel]

Suffer now.

[acoustic rose]

Will let you off, you guys make nice chocolate

[reef kestrel]

What about our cheese and watch?

[floral sand]

I like how Switzerland is still neutral in 2042

[near cape]

fix i will spent new year play BF2024 EPIC GAMES 2021

[candid cosmos]

[winged blade]

[acoustic rose]

Kill it with fire before it shoots at people in all random directions

[wheat bluff]

man they REALLY need to fucking fix this missle relock with the jets

[near cape]

need fix all

[acoustic rose]

Next patch apparently

[winged blade]

Missle relock is weird in general.

[near cape]

Update 3 when

[winged blade]

Sometimes I won't need to relock and overtimes it'll fire not even locked.

[wheat bluff]

90% of my deaths in jet is due to it, so damn annoying

[acoustic rose]

Early december

[delicate token]

Playing in a jet

[near cape]

ty

[prisma anvil]

Afternoon lads

[torpid shuttle]

Good evening

[winged blade]

Jets are just supposed to be suicide bombing into the enemy spawn at start of the game.

[floral sand]

Okay count chocula

[cedar sandal]

And here it is, automatic grenade launcher with HE grenades: https://streamable.com/33jmuj

[near cape]

good 04:18PM mate

[acoustic rose]

09:18 here 😄

[cedar sandal]

Technically it's semi auto but I click really fast

[candid cosmos]

pops flare
🎧 around the world,around the woorld🎧
missle relocks

[winged blade]

It's 4:18 AM here in New York.

[floral sand]

“Good evening” my man sounding like Dracula

[delicate token]

Taking a heli and helping the team 👎
Taking a jet and flying around the map the whole game

[wheat bluff]

every single time lmaooo

[near cape]

yes

[spring lance]

So what’s the method ?

[stoic hearth]

I wish the game was being developed not by dice

[reef kestrel]

The jet is useless but useful at taking down heli except if the attack heli focus u.

[near cape]

take heli 10 second after that burn

[wheat bluff]

do you know what agm is? clearly not

[winged blade]

Use Jet to ram, not fight.

[cedar sandal]

So people can abuse it? No thanks

[novel raptor]

For education of course

[reef kestrel]

Better sacrifing your jet taking down a heli.

[spring lance]

Ah is it not public yet ? I see nvm then

[candid cosmos]

yea i feel like the attack heli shouldnt be able to take on a jet and win

[winged blade]

[delicate token]

The avid jet enjoyers gettin mad 💅

[reef kestrel]

Yeah attack heli win against a jet its

[wheat bluff]

or hes trolling cause he has nothing better to do, lmao what a life

[near cape]

Battlefield more fun when play with friend?

[reef kestrel]

Always

[winged blade]

I've never met a Jet player that wasn't on drugs.

[candid cosmos]

attack helis just fly straight to the top of the map and just lock on to you when you get close enough

[reef kestrel]

Yeah its my strat

[spring lance]

@cedar sandal Good on you in that case

[reef kestrel]

and if he do linear line i throw him rocket after 1 lock

[candid cosmos]

and the secondary gunner shoots at them too

[winged blade]

If I meet a guy who says he plays Jets in Battlefield I imagine him doing lines in the Applebees bathroom.

[reef kestrel]

knowning a anti-vehicle rocket can literally melt any air vehicle haha

[near cape]

Halo Better than BF 2042?

[next onyx]

Depends who you talk to

Reddit is devouring the game for its practices

[reef kestrel]

Like The condor and hind get melt so easily

[near cape]

Nah no Farming Simulator 2021 take all

[slim quiver]

ive never seen a reddit post that was positive about this game in weeks

[reef kestrel]

Speaking of Halo.
Which one is polished id say Halo

[candid cosmos]

laser designators shouldnt be such a late unlock

[near cape]

Like who playing Farming simulator?
a farmer?

[reef kestrel]

Majority of negative post was about battlepass if it about Halo

[slim quiver]

halo is pretty polished but it needs optimization and weapon balance

[winged blade]

Long story short, game was not ready for launch.

[cedar sandal]

I don't think there's any way to privately report a bug unfortunately

[reef kestrel]

20$ for a skin

[cedar sandal]

But if they fix another bug, this one should also be patched out

[next onyx]

I've never really had much of an opinion on halo weapon balance considering how slowly everything kills

[slim quiver]

weapon balance in halo infinite is very far off

[slim quiver]

halo notoriously has weapons that will 1 shot you

[stoic hearth]

oh man

[slim quiver]

but in this game, some of the basic weapons have very weird TTKs

[winged blade]

EA/Dice is now hiring mods for 48$/H 30 hour work week with PTO.

[candid cosmos]

br, a pistol and a dream is all you need

[slim quiver]

the BR used to 3-4 burst you

[reef kestrel]

Rocket, sniper, the brute weapon, old shotgun, etc..

[prisma anvil]

Eyyy its way and zy

[slim quiver]

now it 6 bursts you

[next onyx]

Jeez

[reef kestrel]

BR yeah

[slim quiver]

yeah its very strange

[stoic hearth]

my nickname is the truth

[slim quiver]

heyo

[next onyx]

Yeah thats long

[wheat bluff]

if a heli can take a jet the heli has ir missles, while jet can aa with minigun

[near cape]

how about Hardline?

[reef kestrel]

Dice will fuck up BC3 if they plan to make one.

[wheat bluff]

and jet can also carry agm which 2 shots most ground light armors

[prisma anvil]

Zy help, I've gone Into another rabbit hole that is chinese sword fantasy comics, I can't escape once again.... Help

[spring lance]

Not sure if it’s the same for 2042, but for destiny you can dm one of the community managers on Twitter to report a bug, maybe try that with the 2042 CMs

[next onyx]

Hardline was fun!

[candid cosmos]

said no one

[tawdry mauve]

^

[next onyx]

Its weapon balance sucked but it was chalk full of soul and was a genuinely funny game

[slim quiver]

you will never get out of that hole

[winged blade]

@next onyx Way Makes bank but secretly doesn't tell @slim quiver about the current promotion in Discord modding. It may hurt their friendship because @slim quiver once helped @next onyx move out of their apartment after the 1985 Mcdonalds nextdoor caught fire to their apartment and damaged the building.

[next onyx]

Bing bong got yo ass, freeze or I shoot

[candid cosmos]

okay i liked it for a while

[near cape]

does Fawzi Mesmar leave is bad sign?

[winged blade]

I'm making the storyline as I go

[prisma anvil]

Welp, shit

[cedar sandal]

I don't have a twitter

[spring lance]

The “RPG Incident”

[next onyx]

Open beta rpg spam pls no

I still vividly remember that

[inner furnace]

has anyone got really bad performance since the most recent patch? I literally can't break 60 FPS now when i was hovering around 90-100 before just curious if others had a perf hit too

[winged blade]

Why was rpg spam bad in veta?

[next onyx]

I was only 14 and i still remember that as if it were yesterday

Okay so there was a thing called boot rpg

[candid cosmos]

yes

[novel raptor]

Literally everyone

[inner furnace]

oh thank god, its not just me

[next onyx]

Your car could spawn with an rpg, now. You had two rockets from a single rpg boot

[reef kestrel]

i remember bf3 beta had modded server with 256 players

[next onyx]

In hot wire you could destroy the objective with a single rocket

And people would set up road blocks on Downtown

[inner furnace]

i hope people are talking about it on reddit so others are aware

[winged blade]

Dude 1942 right now has 100 player servers.

[novel raptor]

battlefield: play4free was the best battlefield and BF3 will never be able to compete.

[next onyx]

And because everyone abandoned their cars it was always available

[candid cosmos]

i havent heard that name in a while

[reef kestrel]

suffer now

[near cape]

Need STRIKE AT KARKAND Map

[inner furnace]

[winged blade]

Ah Hardline was a weird one, never played it.

[vagrant roost]

Idk why but the the rocket blow up my frames drop really hard

[zinc dust]

what do u think about the meta ? (i like m5023)

[candid cosmos]

need operation metro aka HOLD THE ESCALATORS

[weak rock]

is there supposed to be a new update this week?

[gleaming dawn]

need 24/7 Operation Metro

[winged blade]

Next battlefield needs to be 512 players with Operation Metro.

[next onyx]

Ye later on

[vagrant roost]

Yes we do

[acoustic rose]

Aka operation explosives

[gleaming dawn]

this

[candid cosmos]

aka saiga with explosive rounds

[winged blade]

Throws nade and gets fourty kills

[zinc dust]

i think that is hard especially with the ttk of some guns

[vagrant roost]

Shotgun with frag slugs

[prisma anvil]

Me only knowledge about hardline is from the angry Joe review and Russianbadger videos,

[idle crater]

i just wanna share that nightbird with minis/agms is GAMING GAMING

[winged blade]

Angry joe was very angry about 2042

[candid cosmos]

prepatch they were the best

such aoe much wow

[prisma anvil]

Kind of odd to see him not angry in a review isn't it?.. still remember the last of us 2 reviews and vids

[winged blade]

Dice needs to remove the third person melee and replace it was a 2D perspective.

[zinc dust]

Why does no one uses shotgun?

[near cape]

how about OPERATION LOCKER?

[candid cosmos]

the deadly funnel

[winged blade]

We talked about Operation Locker 6 hours ago.

[vagrant roost]

People get so angry when you use it I even got banned from community servers for using shotgun with frag slugs

[candid cosmos]

funnel in the tunnel

[near cape]

bad bad bad

[vagrant roost]

No more like badmin

[candid cosmos]

i remember...i was one of them

[winged blade]

I miss joining a community server and seeing boobies on the screen.

[vagrant roost]

Lol

[candid cosmos]

bf3/4 i lived and breath 870mcs

[winged blade]

You know you picked a quality one, then.

[inner furnace]

ive seen some talk about deleting the cache file for BF2042 for better perf since the patch, how do i do that

[gleaming dawn]

I miss the Desert Combat mod for bf1942

[prisma anvil]

Slug shotty users and us snipers have a lot in common, mostly that a huge part of the playerbase hates us

[winged blade]

Dude I played the Christmas mod for 1942, the damn pirate mod. So many mods.

[arctic grove]

[candid cosmos]

i was both and i got the "xbox record that "moments for prove haha

[gleaming dawn]

omg I forgot about the pirate mod

[vagrant roost]

Have anyone play battlefield 1942 back in the day?

[winged blade]

Forgotten Hope 1 was probably the best one though.

[next onyx]

Halo 1 back at school, Open tdm

That was fun

[gleaming dawn]

I wish we still had submarines and big navy boats

[next onyx]

Bully the year 12's

[candid cosmos]

blood gulch and a lunch break

[winged blade]

I loved crashing the battleships into each other.

[inner furnace]

Does anyone know how to delete the cache file for the game?

[gleaming dawn]

or driving the battleship off the map

[covert cipher]

Can you not defend in Co-op Breakthrough?

[winged blade]

Or having dumb teammates beach the aircraft carrier.

[fleet gale]

Yes

[slim quiver]

1942 had them

[vagrant roost]

I'm trying remember was there ship you could drive it been very long time ago

[gleaming dawn]

Coral Sea was intense

[gleaming dawn]

Yeah you could drive all the ships and subs

[vagrant roost]

They should add back ships

[reef kestrel]

Admim who get clapped and use his power to kick you out cuz he is bad.

[slim quiver]

1942 had the best vehicle in the entirety of the BF series, it was literally the most simple tank ever

it was just the wespe

[vagrant roost]

Ok just forgot because haven't play the game in 10 years ago

[winged blade]

It was so nice being able to pin down bases though, if your team was good the other team could not get any vehicles to fight with.

[slim quiver]

@next onyx

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1pqWrNDTimA

[vagrant roost]

I feel like the older battlefield had way more stuff then new ones

[fleet gale]

Back when there were tanks and transpo vehicles was fun, now everything is a semi tank

[slow kraken]

Better devs

[gleaming dawn]

I think it all went downhill when they started releasing it on consoles

[winged blade]

The only thing worse with 1942 is the graphics and gunplay.

[fleet gale]

This = true

[vagrant roost]

Idk why they let call of duty dev touch our game smh

[gleaming dawn]

They had to dumb it down for the animals who play games on consoles

[winged blade]

It's why I never really bought the BC games.

[slim quiver]

they didnt

[floral sand]

At least I don’t pay 2000 dollars to build a fucking decepticon to play the same games as console.

[vagrant roost]

Cool they add animals but the sliding like come on bro we anit call of duty

[slim quiver]

Okay for the people that keep thinking that cod dev changed everything about the game

[slow kraken]

1942 gunplay better than 2042 gunplay as of now. Change my mind

[hazy vector]

the only CoD person that touched the game is that director that came onboard for 2042

[floral sand]

I would say inspired

[gleaming dawn]

sorry I don't talk to commoners

[slim quiver]

the GM from cod was the GM of the live service, he joined dice LA and LA was in charge of post release content that mainly pertained to the Live service, he did not join the project to design battlefield

[winged blade]

Medic was OP as crap. Gun pretty much the best in the game.

[floral sand]

They took inspiration from MW

[minor holly]

Imagine not being able to afford a pc in 2021

[hazy vector]

DICE(EA) is just following the percieved market. and the market says "idiots will pay no matter what you fuck up"

[arctic grove]

that akward moment when you don't realise friendly fire is on on a milsim server, go ham with scatter grenades and then kill 10 of your teamates

[fleet gale]

Atleast we don't have aim assist to play the game

[ionic adder]

So everything went to shit from bad company? Ok dude

[winged blade]

Quoted wrong person

[floral sand]

Don’t want one

[slim quiver]

there is some MW inspiration

but not much

[hazy vector]

even back in battlefield 2 the medic gat one of the better guns as an unlock. it had a scope

[arctic grove]

Doesn't change anything, It's still garbage

[winged blade]

Assault class was not good at all in 1942.

[floral sand]

tac sprint

[slim quiver]

the movement is the closest thing to cod out of any of their ideas

[vagrant roost]

But they add sliding around

[minor holly]

Imagine thinking you can go ur whole life without needing to use a pc for ur job or school in 2021

[slim quiver]

sliding was in BFV

[floral sand]

I use a Mac laptop for college

[slim quiver]

except it was better in V

[arctic grove]

Imagine starting your sentence with imagine to get people to imagine what your imagining

[slim quiver]

it was marginally better in V

[gleaming dawn]

bc2 was pretty awesome. Not downhill, just losing a lot of the vehicles and interactable stuff from the prior ones

[floral sand]

And in 1.

[slim quiver]

even had better animation

[minor holly]

Imagine thinking that there isn’t games for mac on steam which means you’re technically a pc gamer in 2021

[slim quiver]

yeah but who used the slide in BF1, it was kinda shit

[vagrant roost]

Never play bf5 I heard it was bad as bf1

[winged blade]

Also Knifing in 1942 was a thing to behold, it was so clunky and crap.

[hazy vector]

steam has games for mac, PC and even linux tho

[arctic grove]

Imagine you telling me to imagine that I need to imagine thinking that there isn’t games for mac on steam which means you’re technically a pc gamer in 2021

[floral sand]

Yeah 😂

[slim quiver]

BFV had the best slide in a battlefield game

you covered so much ground

it was actually useful

[hazy vector]

sounds like a broken mechanic

[minor holly]

Imagine thinking that pc isn’t the best console in 2021 just think about it

[winged gyro]

bf2042 is more realistic ig

[arctic grove]

BF4 was the best battlefield, that's just a fact

[slim quiver]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YdhHOAI_J9w

[minor holly]

BFV had sliding?!?! 😂😂😂

[slim quiver]

the perfect example of why the bfv slide was useful

[winged gyro]

after like 6 months of release maybe

[vagrant roost]

Nah bf1942 was the best

[floral sand]

It took my friend a year and a half to realize there’s sliding

[minor holly]

Bruh that slide is so janky why are they trying to copy cod

[gleaming dawn]

BF4 supported my 1080s in SLI really well and it ran so smooth

[winged gyro]

the slide is fine bruh why is everyone complaining about it? in the beta it was terrible but now it’s a lot better imo

[minor holly]

Doesn’t having sliding in battlefield ruin the realism?

[slim quiver]

yeah thats unfortunate

all i did was slide in that game

[winged gyro]

no?

[slim quiver]

all medics need to do is slide

[ionic adder]

You can slide in real life too

[floral sand]

It’s unfortunate for the world how fucking stupid he is

[minor holly]

Yeah slide with 100 LBS of military equipment ? 😂😂😂

[glad mist]

ikr lmao

[floral sand]

More like 40lbs but okay.

[winged gyro]

yeah jump out of an f35 and rpg the jet flying like 10 metres behind you and then jump back in again

[floral sand]

And that’s today. Back then it was probably around 20

[minor holly]

That still wouldn’t make you slide how it did in that video he sent 😂😂😂

[floral sand]

Are you telling me you can not lift the bar at the gym?

[winged gyro]

battlefield isnt realistic bruh

[minor holly]

Do you slide when you are lifting weights or are u in a static position???

Let me just tactical slide next time I bench press 😂😂😂

[floral sand]

Are you not holding a gun?

[winged gyro]

the point you’re trying to make isn’t very good bruh

[floral sand]

Granted, it does weigh around half,

[glad mist]

a backpack full off 3 kinds of ammo mags, an underbarrel grenade launcher + ammo for that, random attachments and scopes + random shit any soldier would have
casually doublesprind, slide into the next corridor like a madman and still have the ergo and cardio to clap some nerd camping in a corner before they doink you.
Fuck my ass Dice lol

[tame cobalt]

Username checks out

[floral sand]

Name one arcade shooter who doesn’t have that.

[winged gyro]

your name however… is beautiful

[minor holly]

Battlefield is suppose to be arcade mixed with milisim

[floral sand]

False in so many ways

[minor holly]

Addin stuff like sliding is just copying cod

[winged gyro]

who says that 💀

[glad mist]

literally any Battlefield and CoD released pre 2016.

[tame cobalt]

A fellow chad i see... You dropped this 👑

[floral sand]

Stop at arcade shooter and you’re folding.

[minor holly]

Next thing they’re gonna add is tactical sprinting for their new game

[winged gyro]

oh so cod is the only fps game that’s allowed sliding? 💀

[acoustic rose]

I am sure sliding started out as a bug that was turned into a feature 😄

[winged blade]

Does Dice even like Steamed Hams?

[winged gyro]

[floral sand]

So you can’t carry around an EOD bot, and a javelin, a primary and a secondary while parachuting in BF4?

[minor holly]

No cod has it cuz it’s just an arcade shooter 😂😂

[winged gyro]

so is battlefield 💀

[floral sand]

Battlefield is JUST an arcade shooter. Zero Milsim.

[glad mist]

except you couldnt doublesprind or slide around like a moron there

[winged gyro]

nothing about battlefield is realistic bruh

[winged blade]

I've never considered Battlefield an arcade shooter until BF5.

[floral sand]

So it’s the sliding that ruins it for you? Not the fact that you can slap slams to a bike and blow up a tank without dying?

[acoustic rose]

The only milsim aspect is the whining players that get mad when a female solider gets added 😄

[safe verge]

Can they release an update where you can set a different crossplay option to skip playing with PC ppl but keep Xbox homies

[wheat bluff]

lmao

[glad mist]

no, its just yet another feature that has no place in Battlefield

[ripe hedge]

I dont like your regional dialect, just call them hamburgers

[winged gyro]

when you play an actual milsim like insurgency or arma you realise how arcady bf is

[floral sand]

Hamborger

[glad mist]

atleast in the way how its currently implemented

[prisma anvil]

No word yet, pain

[glad mist]

there's no game balance whatsoever

[floral sand]

Dice is one of the only franchises I see actually innovating

[winged gyro]

facts i wanna just play with console peeps

[minor holly]

Do you realize the connection here? Battlefield started going downhill once it started all these arcade mechanics 😂😂😂 @winged gyro

[winged blade]

@ripe hedge Excuse me just one minute.

[tame cobalt]

umm 2042 already has that

[arctic grove]

Interesting, it's always clearly been an arcade shooter to me.

[minor holly]

Their older games aren’t like that

[floral sand]

They try new things, things that don’t always work, but they’re always changing.

[winged gyro]

battlefield has been arcade forever 💀 i started in bf3 and that’s arcade bruh

[arctic grove]

Hey Alex, I don't know if you can answer this question as I'm not sure if it's your department (or if you can even talk about it), but bots filling lobbies is currently broken, right?

[glad mist]

Yeah 2042 is so innovative, so many things we've never seen before in any game.
thats why the reviews are so good too. owait

[tame cobalt]

there's a 60 bot cap

[floral sand]

I’ve never seen 128 players in a AAA game before

[winged blade]

Planetside 2?

[minor holly]

Mostly negative on steam ggs 😂😂😂

[rustic pine]

Anyone else not want to f****** slide every time they mantle something

[glad mist]

for a good reason

[arctic grove]

I mean my matches don't start because bots don't fill the lobbies.

[acoustic rose]

Any MMO out there with an event on...

[arctic grove]

Never played an MMO?

[minor holly]

128 bots 😂😂😂

[glad mist]

its hard to pull off a FPS with 128 people on one session and still have it be a good game

[winged gyro]

there’s a 60 bot cap

[floral sand]

I’ve never seen weather effects like 2042 in a FPS of this scale

[minor holly]

Having any bots is a L

[tame cobalt]

idk they'll improve matchmaking reliability in next patch

[candid cosmos]

frontline: fuel of war

[arctic grove]

Figured I'd ask when one of the devs came in chat, see if they knew anything.

[winged gyro]

why?

[floral sand]

How many players it got?

[glad mist]

not a AAA game, but funny how AA games like Arma and Planetside pull that off well and AAA games don't.

[winged blade]

Even the original 1942 servers can be modded to support 128. Some are higher. I know Forgotten Hope 2, a mod for Battlefield 2 can support 200.

[minor holly]

I never knew it was taking inspiration from PUBG

[candid cosmos]

wait...is bf2042 just a more advance frontline fuel of war

[acoustic rose]

Planetside 2 had a decent amount of players at anyone time

[harsh furnace]

Arma u barley get 60 fps I get more fps here

[floral sand]

Never played it

[tame cobalt]

The a sector in discarded cq is pretty poggies

[arctic grove]

You can always disable crossplay 😉

[minor holly]

I’m on Xbox

[floral sand]

I’m also taking about innovation for the series.

[glad mist]

well arma's a niche game built by a small dev studio.
Yet even they somehow release good games.

[winged gyro]

doesn’t work on console atm

[glad mist]

meanwhile dice:

[floral sand]

Specialists, weather, map sizes, player count, bots, portal, hazard zone.

[safe verge]

But i want to play with Xbox

[candid cosmos]

its basically 2042 minus the air if i remember correctly

[minor holly]

Hazard zone is gonna flop

[floral sand]

ALLLL new to the series.

[delicate token]

I wouldnt say bohemia interactive is a small team

[winged blade]

Battlefield has always had bots.

[glad mist]

not in MP

[tame cobalt]

not always

[floral sand]

I’m saying bots that can be in MP and then replaced by actual people

[minor holly]

Yeah I don’t remember that either

[candid cosmos]

i though there were sandstorms on firestorm

[winged blade]

Battlefield 1942 campaign was litterally MP maps with AI.

[tame cobalt]

Also good point

[winged gyro]

people who say 2042 is bad are either joining the trend, suck at the game, are blinded by nostalgia, or expected too much from dice

[minor holly]

Why even make 128 battles a feature of a game if it’s gonna be filled by bots

[arctic grove]

Yeah it's a weird thing this FPS games started doing adding bots to MP games. I'm not sure what the deal is with that.

[glad mist]

bots in 2042 are fucking dumb anyway, why not display bots and player count seperately in the server browser (which this game doesn't even fully have either way coz legacy feature l0l)

[winged gyro]

because it’s cool? 💀

[delicate token]

Bf2 campaign !?!

[winged blade]

Bots shouldn't be in MP games anyway, Battlefield was about large scale action with players.

[floral sand]

There was sandstorms on Oman and Sinai desert, but the tornados are incredible

[tame cobalt]

ratio

[minor holly]

Playing against AI is cool?

[prisma anvil]

Good luck with that, Microsoft has made it so that you need to do a tango while sacrificing a goat to turn off crossplay

[candid cosmos]

i wouldnt know my fps usually dies near one

[arctic grove]

Having bots fill lobbies increases longevity. They're a good thing.

[minor holly]

What is this cod zombies?

[harsh furnace]

AI is bette than most people so yeah it’s good

[floral sand]

It’s only there so the servers are not empty, they disappear when someone joins.

[tame cobalt]

actual factual

[winged gyro]

no having 128 players is cool and having a few empty slots filled by bots isn’t that bad. also means if you lag out or have to go for a bit you can always join back to your friends squad without a que

[glad mist]

so casuals can play the game without needing to face urges to improve against good players in MP

[tame cobalt]

big fact

[winged blade]

Here's the thing. If they stopped with this matchmaking deal and made actually servers you wouldn't need to wait for servers to be dead.

[arctic grove]

Orrrr...people just don't care about sweating every game?

[harsh furnace]

AOW servers are always full

[glad mist]

basically what i said

[tame cobalt]

wouldn't stop bots from being a great feature

[safe verge]

Yeah i want (Xbox + playstation) - PC

[candid cosmos]

but sweating playing games replaces me actually running

[winged gyro]

^^^

[delicate token]

Having people flame chat because theyre loosing

[tame cobalt]

kek

[arctic grove]

By your own logic I'd be considered a casual, but... I mean...

[arctic grove]

Filling lobbies with bots being a good thing is subjective.

[candid cosmos]

i think there was an actual study about sweating in games and weight lose

[harsh furnace]

Corssplay enabled = not smart teammates

[floral sand]

Dedication

[glad mist]

dark souls

[tame cobalt]

it's pretty funny how aggressive the matchmaking is with team balancing but then the maps and modes are still unbalanced so it doesn't help

[winged blade]

@winged gyro Sorry, I just want my kills to be meanful as killing another player. I feel nothing killing a bot, I want the other guy to know why he died. Because I lagged.

[cedar sandal]

I don't mind crossplay

[glad mist]

battlefield

great comparison

[arctic grove]

You missed the point entirely.

[winged gyro]

would you rather have a few bots or have empty servers?

[glad mist]

thats ironic

[minor holly]

Dark souls is ASSS

[winged blade]

Neither?

[floral sand]

I remember you saying you didn’t know if you wanted a PS5, if you like dark souls, demons souls remake is so good

[cedar sandal]

What's wrong with crossplay? Can't console players plug in a mouse/keyboard and play the game?

[candid cosmos]

tbf darksouls is just a memory game

[tame cobalt]

not an option

[harsh furnace]

U guys must be living in dead areas if ur having bots in AOW games

[winged gyro]

oce servers

[winged blade]

What other Battlefield game relied on bots in MP to fill servers?

[floral sand]

Demons souls is worth getting a PS5. fight me.

[arctic grove]

If and when I get a PS5, it'll probably be one of the first games I get. I love me some Soulsborne games.

[winged gyro]

what other battlefield game had 128 players

[minor holly]

I haven’t had a console in a long time, can you just plug in a keyboard and mouse into a Xbox series X and ps5?!?!

[candid cosmos]

i would get it...but im waiting on stock

[harsh furnace]

Server browser would help hopefully it comes back for u guys

[delicate token]

Yes

[tame cobalt]

all the ones that are currently unplayable in many regions would greatly benefit from them but go off

[winged blade]

128 player servers shouldn't be hard if the game is good.

[minor holly]

Does every game support it?

[floral sand]

There is a save feature which kinda pissed me off but I just never used it.

[winged gyro]

no battlefield is good on release… give it time bruh

[tired pelican]

-$1000 for 10 year old game lul

[delicate token]

Probably not every game

[glad mist]

darksouls is a fucking singleplayer game you can play at ur own pace jfc.
Battlefield is primarily an online arcade PvP FPS game.
The only reason we should have bots in BF2042 should be for portals if at all, since its a sandbox, anywhere else they should either be optional or just not implemented at all.

[arctic grove]

Xbox has native KBM support but it's up to the devs to enable it in their games.

Most don't.

[tame cobalt]

bf 2042 is already great when it works, just needs more polishing to be consistently great

[cedar sandal]

No but there's control emulators that do similar things even if official support is not there.

[arctic grove]

yup

[candid cosmos]

hides away rebuilt mvc2 arcade cabinet

[arctic grove]

I never have bots in my games. What are you talking about

[winged blade]

I don't know how the regions are split so I'll keep my tongue on low population regions but I think a better answer would be mixing them if the population gets to low.

[glad mist]

its sad that i have to explain this

[minor holly]

Damn so console is still taking L’s by not implementing keyboard and mouse to all their games?!?

[floral sand]

Been thinking bout getting an Xbox to play all of the Halo games again

[winged blade]

Merging, rather. MP bots won't help low player count either way honestly.

[devout hollow]

DICE please bring back actual classes. Idgaf about specialists

[safe verge]

Your mom is like plus 20+ right? Does she suck?

[tired pelican]

I don't get why people are hating I'm bots. I haven't seen one bot in multiplayer lol and even if I did, wouldn't you prefer bots to an empty game???

[reef kestrel]

amateur

[glad mist]

people play battlefield for the PvP, not for bots.

[winged blade]

^

[tame cobalt]

just stop

[arctic grove]

Again, you missed the point entirely, so drop the snotty bitch act.

You said that people who play against bots are just a bunch of casuals, but I play against bots. How many casuals do you see 100%'ing a game like Dark Souls?

[arctic grove]

Bruh then stop playing vs bots

[minor holly]

Why are you giving DICE slack, their game shouldn’t have problems finding 128 players to queue with in the FIRST PLACE

[tame cobalt]

Based

[candid cosmos]

alot actually

[arctic grove]

There are bots in MP games my guy, catch up

[glad mist]

bruh then tell me how to turn off bots in my games, owait. i cant

[minor holly]

Based

[arctic grove]

I never have bots in my games my guy

[tired pelican]

And it doesn't? 5 secomd queues and never seen a bot lol

[harsh furnace]

I have only seen bots once or twice since release in AOW but lobbies got filled after few mins with people

[winged blade]

Why are people getting so angry over bots in-game. I just said I don't like them, why are you attacking each other?!

[minor holly]

I would’ve refunded vanguard instantly if it had bots

[arctic grove]

Turn crossplay back on? Or dude upgrade from your Xbox one / PS4

[acoustic rose]

care bears are out in full force today 😄

[reef kestrel]

Because this is bf discord

[cedar sandal]

Just play hazard zone. The bots are part of the game and well balanced.

[winged gyro]

i thought everyone played battlefield casually 💀

[glad mist]

🤡

[candid cosmos]

you can be both a casual and a completionist

[tame cobalt]

Good bots are the future.

[reef kestrel]

Dont need to sweat to make 131 kills

[next onyx]

First off let's tone it down with the insults and secondly, Bots are pretty rare and only become more common late onto the night.

[delicate token]

Whos playing battlefield as a comp game

[bold sage]

Vanguard has like 12 player matches, battlefield has 128

[arctic grove]

Lol you’re the only clown here

[winged blade]

Am I a racist if I hate bots in Multiplayer?

[minor holly]

128 bots

[candid cosmos]

botist

[arctic grove]

you either haven't noticed, not played enough, or have been very lucky. Either way you not having seen them is irrelevant to the fact they exist in MP games.

[glad mist]

No YoU aRe ThE CLoWn

[next onyx]

I once did comp in battlefield. It's actually fun.

[arctic grove]

I just got on here and won’t ask what’s going on. But you all relize that in the first few battlefield games there was AI BOTS!!!!

[acoustic rose]

Swing that hammer around a few times, it'll calm them down 😄

[floral sand]

Yes?? No?? I don’t know…

[bold sage]

120 people, 8 bits

[winged gyro]

that’s a thing?!?!?

[reef kestrel]

Way cant find da wae

[minor holly]

Yeah sorry to say they use bots in their games

[glad mist]

yes, on offline/singleplayer servers.

[empty bloom]

skill issue

[winged gyro]

there’s a 60 bot cap you spud

[reef kestrel]

Do u know da wae?

[acoustic rose]

Competitive 2142 was great, especially at lan

[next onyx]

I embraced that meme many years ago

[arctic grove]

I just went through the player list. 128 players. Zero bots

[cedar sandal]

There were online bots in some previous battlefield games too

[tame cobalt]

Bots = based

[winged blade]

97% of Battlefield 2042 players are willing to commit war crimes to keep bots in the game. More at 11.

[languid bramble]

I need PC expert , can anyone help

[arctic grove]

Not every game.

[candid cosmos]

i hope they use that in the new sonic movie

[minor holly]

I played a 128 player game on call of duty none of them were bots…

[floral sand]

I’ve never actually died by a bot in MP, so if you are bitching about them you must have been killed by one.

[arctic grove]

Maybe we just have a completely different idea of what a "casual" is.

[bold sage]

Probably

[cedar sandal]

Many BF2 servers had bots to pad their server count to get people to join.

[languid bramble]

any pc expert online

[minor holly]

Me

[winged blade]

@cedar sandal It's called, seeding.

[glad mist]

oyeah i forgot about legacy BF2

[arctic grove]

Or maybe he plays pvp games for pvp and doesn't want to kill bots?

[floral sand]

The day I die from a bot in multiplayer is the day I shoot my router.

[tame cobalt]

Excited for the bot improvements coming in the next patch. Now the only thing that's missing is actually having bots in your squad. Would be a great addition

[acoustic rose]

@languid brambleJust ask your question

[minor holly]

I’m a expert in everything

[winged blade]

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

[bold sage]

Yeah, in warzone. The BR

[floral sand]

Why the fuck would you be upset over free kills?

[arctic grove]

What platform are you playing on?

[glad mist]

god what a great game that was tbh, compared to this pile of junk anyway.

[gleaming dawn]

no it's me I'm the expert

[winged gyro]

an* clearly not an expert at english

[delicate token]

Its a casual game everyones acting like theyre playing csgo or league and if they loose a match it really matters.
Like @arctic grove is tryna say the bots being in game dont matter they still count as kills, you still get progression off them so why people mad about them…

[reef kestrel]

Bf2042 map balance are 10/10

[minor holly]

Okay bot lover..

[candid cosmos]

hey he speaks english too goodly

[acoustic rose]

The answer is likely, old hardware, bad hardware or poor optimisation. Have a nice day 😛

[bold sage]

Aight bro wherever

[tame cobalt]

[winged blade]

#Notmybattlefield #NotinmyMP #Nobots2021

[winged gyro]

cry about it bro 💀 so cut over like 5 bots being in your game

[arctic grove]

I like how all these people complaining about bots won’t say what platform they play on or if they have crossplay off

[torpid shuttle]

What is balance? Is this word ever existed in dictionary?

[topaz slate]

I never thought lack of a single infantry mode (with progress) or map will just keep me off from playing solo

[winged blade]

What a TROLL

[next onyx]

Bots aren't bad at least, they fill the servers up

[candid cosmos]

what is love

[winged blade]

Don't

[winged gyro]

people who complain about bots are just looking for something to complain about

[tired pelican]

Innit

[arctic grove]

Yikes, it seems you missed the point. Pvp stand for player versus player. Perhaps he wants to kill players, not bots, for the satisfaction of the pvp? Perhaps the kill counter becomes irrelevant once bots have been thrown in the mix? Expand your mind friend.

[bold sage]

We still all know that the best battlefield is anyway

[cedar sandal]

BF 2042 has some of the best maps in the series. The only downside is the bad weather.

[languid bramble]

So when I try to donwload origin Im getting error that says error message MSVCP140.dll is missing from my computer

[hollow canyon]

Can't believe there's no adaptative triggers support 😭.

[reef kestrel]

But bf2042 map are great I can easily make 100+ kills just abusing my spot outbound

[arctic grove]

Pretty much. I don't understand what people have against bots, but I can't see any negatives. I mean, I wouldn't have played the original Battlefront 2 for as long as I did if I didn't have access to instant action. I can hop on right now even though the servers are gone and get a full game. Sure it's bots, but still. I get to play the game.

[delicate token]

Yeah, would rather have that than like previous games where you just load into empty servers

[winged blade]

Sucks that one city has a Tornado every 30 minutes.

[tame cobalt]

which ones are your fav and in which modes?

[torpid shuttle]

Bot is good

[winged gyro]

i was pretty upset about that tbh

[floral sand]

Find me a match with more than 10 bots per team

[minor holly]

You can’t see what the negatives to bots are?!?! Oh mawww gawwwd

[arctic grove]

It’s always something I guess

[reef kestrel]

Suck that tornado is actually good and its a revolution.

[glad mist]

People who think bots are a great addition to 2042, in the currently implemented state, have never touched a Spind or Metro hardcore server lol

[floral sand]

You do that, I’ll shoot my console.

[tame cobalt]

Based

[cedar sandal]

I play Hazard Zone exclusively. Breakaway is my favorite because there isn't rain, sandstorm, or a tornado every single game.

[reef kestrel]

Dice are making great progress.

[minor holly]

Based

[winged gyro]

i just know this ‘we’re ahead of schedule’ dude is an absolute virgin lmao

[winged blade]

That Tornados sucks more than my roomba.

[harsh furnace]

[tame cobalt]

rip

[candid cosmos]

any progress is great progress at this point

[empty bloom]

just ahead of schedule it seems

[arctic grove]

I've been in several, what's your point?

[cedar sandal]

Manifest is my least favorite map in 2042 because it's dark, rainy, AND there's a tornado every game. But it's still a pretty good map by BF standards.

[candid cosmos]

and sand gets everywhere

[winged gyro]

what servers you play on? i’m on oce and get barely any

[minor holly]

This guy had his cherry popped by a bot 😂😂😂

[floral sand]

Wrong map.

[winged gyro]

manifest is the best bruh

[reef kestrel]

Yeah Dice are ahead of schedule.

I hope they make BC3 and delete "legacy" feature.

[arctic grove]

That’s the shipyard right? I refuse to fly on that map anymore lol it’s so annoying

[acoustic rose]

Check for visual c redistributable downloads for your Windows via Windows update. They may be listed as optionable.

[tame cobalt]

hazard zone is such a different mode idk if you can really compare its maps with other games

[candid cosmos]

shhh let me have my bad joke

[winged blade]

Battlefield 2042 was a love letter to the fans after they realized one of them shit in the employee bathroom sink.

[next onyx]

While it's true that your play multiplayer shooters to fight players. Having bots to fill in the missing numbers is overall better.

[floral sand]

Manifest gives me noshar vibes

[winged gyro]

you don’t like a game because it’s got like 5 bots in a 128 player match…

[winged blade]

Every game I play has 127 bots.

[tame cobalt]

manifest is pretty sick ngl

[empty bloom]

it’s just sounding like skill issues

[winged gyro]

there’s a 60 bot cap

[arctic grove]

They probably play on PS4 with crossplay off too lol

[floral sand]

You tweaking

[minor holly]

Whenever I play battlefield I get like 127 bots in my game

[glad mist]

a love letter to their fans wallets

[upbeat sorrel]

random thought but i think the whole no-pats concept would be better if
a) specialists locked to hazard zone
b) you create your own character for all-out warfare

[arctic grove]

It's possible to like and play a game and still dislike many things about it.

[winged gyro]

yep lmaoooooo

[cedar sandal]

Hazard Zone maps are slightly different because every single game there are tornados on maps that support it.

On the other hand, I don't take people who say 2042 has bad maps seriously because they're usually the people who praise Metro, Locker, and (for the boomers) Strike at Karkland.

[candid cosmos]

i have barely played online with bots but when i do it feels like im shooting fish in a barrel

[arctic grove]

He’s playing solo vs ai haha

[winged blade]

Are you a 2042 bot?

[harsh furnace]

U can have 127 bots if u play solo that’s what’s he saying

[winged gyro]

calm down bro just asked what server you played on 💀

[arctic grove]

GAME

[candid cosmos]

Blouses

[winged gyro]

again… there’s a 60 bot cap so no you don’t 💀

[floral sand]

Broke?

[harsh furnace]

U guys should join NA servers they are always full

[arctic grove]

no, cuz it always has been

[arctic grove]

calm down bro, it was a response to a different remark

[cedar sandal]

I like that there's breathing space between action in 2042, instead of clusterfuns like Metro or Locker.

[winged gyro]

right…

[minor holly]

Battlefield 2042 enjoyer sucks dice way too hard 😂😂

[rotund stream]

I thought there wasnt a server browser yet.

[winged gyro]

low key wish there was a close quarters map

[arctic grove]

there is actually

[winged gyro]

bro you have an iq of like 6 if you think bots ruin a game

[winged blade]

Battlefield 2042 posioned our water supply, burned our crops and delivered a plague unto our houses!

[floral sand]

It’s portal tho

[cedar sandal]

Oh yeah and BC2 has its share of bad maps too. Port Valdez is garbage on attacker, Laguna is just which team can 3d spot more.

[cosmic atlas]

Do radar missiles on Jets lock onto ground targets?

[candid cosmos]

i need a map to make shotguns more viable

[floral sand]

They did!?

[arctic grove]

why would you want a serv browser for conquest tho

[winged blade]

NOOOOO But are we gonna wait until it does!?

[floral sand]

Love it

[candid cosmos]

grabs pitchfork

[young totem]

Pleez make keyboard and mouse support on Xbox x series

[arctic grove]

Just play PC

[cedar sandal]

There is a close quarters map. Manifest is close quarters.

[alpine fjord]

LF1M NA conquest BF2042 Squad 2

[winged gyro]

nah i’m meaning something like metro or locker

[cedar sandal]

Kaleidoscope is close quarters too.

[arctic grove]

Imagine owning a console and wanting to use a Mouse and keyboard. lol

[glad mist]

the game is too good to have metro or locker in it

[cedar sandal]

This, but unironically.

[arctic grove]

I have fun playing it, there are some nice changes, but there are clearly sus directional choices (not being able to make or lock squads and removing all chat) that I don't think will help the game in the long run.

[minor holly]

What do u mean keyboard mouse better?

[arctic grove]

Of course keyboard and mouse is better

[rotund stream]

Why not? Pick and choose the map, stay with the server when it rotates map, instead of playing the same map 5 times in a row coz of matchmaking

[minor holly]

A controller is just more comfortable

[arctic grove]

Yeah but that guy has a console and he wants to use M+K

[arctic grove]

Playing with regulars in custom servers was the best

[minor holly]

Why not use both?

[cedar sandal]

You can quit out of the matchmaking when you see a map you don't like.

That's pretty much what I do every other time I see Manifest Hazard Zone.

[arctic grove]

Controllers are nice, but M&K is way more precise

is the game fixed yet so i can buy

[glad mist]

Ziba Tower? Donya Fortress? wtf is that trash
throw in huge ass maps which take you atleast 10 minutes to find any action on.

[arctic grove]

Try it with a month of ea play sub

[glad mist]

If you don't get shugged by some nerd in a vic beforehand.

[cedar sandal]

Oh god ziba tower was trash

[arctic grove]

Controllers reign supreme for when you wanna chill tho, go lay on your bed and play

[minor holly]

True

[glad mulch]

I hope they will add a map cycle to the game.

[gleaming dawn]

and a scoreboard

[arctic grove]

You mean you don't enjoy getting the same map 5 times in a row with no control over which map you get?

[royal trail]

i hope theyll add a browser for aow aswell

[arctic grove]

as with most BF games I'm expecting the best maps to come with expansions

[glad mist]

no scoreboards because then casuals would face how trash their are.

[winged gyro]

chad

[glad mulch]

yes

[arctic grove]

No scoreboards because DICE is woke now. Everybody is a winner YAYYYYY

[glad mist]

can't have any of that in a political correct video game.

[cedar sandal]

The best map in BF3 was in the base game

[arctic grove]

theyre definitely 100% gonna add these

[royal trail]

metro bf3 is based

[glad mist]

winner winner chicken dinner

[arctic grove]

Where did they say that?

[cedar sandal]

I'm talking about Damavand Peak of course, you Metro playing casuals

[arctic grove]

Careful you don't get Sundances pronouns wrong, they'll ban ya

[arctic grove]

vc is coming confirmed, so squad change will probably come soon too

[royal trail]

i hope they add bf2 to portal sometime soon

[arctic grove]

When is a new patch?

[gleaming dawn]

2042 kinda feels like bf2

[winged blade]

I heard console players use all the saved money they get from playing consoles over PC to fund Trumps stop the steal campaign.

[arctic grove]

Same, I still have more hours in bf2 than any other 😛

[glad mulch]

december

[cedar sandal]

Yeah especially the map design

[slow kraken]

Yeah this is better than having nothing replace the people that leave

[arctic grove]

I Think I've got like 1400 hours in BF4

[arctic grove]

a lot of sus choices yeah, the whole game is kinda sus

[winged blade]

It's gonna be a long december.

[arctic grove]

@glad mulch wasnt a day 10 patch meant to be now?

[slow kraken]

Not even close lol

[static sentinel]

Yeah BF2042 is a travesty

[gleaming dawn]

Bigger maps, bluer tint I guess

[rotund stream]

Did they tone down the gore a bit since the last bf? Make war more kid friendly i guess. /s

[arctic grove]

I have over 20k hours on runescape lul

[zinc pulsar]

I wish there would be a battle royale mode in the future

[winged blade]

My mom stopped talking to me after I bought it.

[arctic grove]

there was no gore in V?

[glad mulch]

The second update was out some days ago, the third update will come in december.

[slow kraken]

Do you mean Battlefront 2 or Battlefield 2?

[gleaming dawn]

battlefield 2

[cedar sandal]

I love that there's so much space in between action in BF2042 like in BF2.

[arctic grove]

@glad mulch ah ok lmao, i guess i'm not touching the game till then

[arctic grove]

Battlefield 2 modern combat?

[arctic grove]

I would say it's a (insert) moment but I think that that would get me banned for politics

I'm not nearly as bothered by the removal of the class system as everyone else though. To be honest idk why we have classes or specialists. Just let people build their own kits 100%. If you add enough kick ass diversity to the items everyone should have a good time.

[glad mulch]

Yes, BfV and BF1 were PEGI 18, 2042 is PEGI 16

[winged blade]

Modern Combat was actually kinda good on Xbox. Low player count sucked though.

[cedar sandal]

You could go minutes without any shooting in BF2, and the space in between is what made it fun.

[static sentinel]

Save your money all together and don't bother buying it

[arctic grove]

Battlefield 2 modern combat was the most superior battlefield game ever kthx

[royal trail]

lol

[winged blade]

I loved spamming the mortar strikes.

[arctic grove]

Sundance is a woman, don't worry we all know it

[arctic grove]

this is good

@static sentinel i wish but i already played 50hrs and currently uninstalled

[cedar sandal]

Which is why I love all the space in between objectives in 2042.

[slow kraken]

2042 plays nothing like that ngl. Battlefield 2 had classes and maps fit the player sizes

[zinc pulsar]

anyone here has unlocked the sundance tier 1 skin?

[winged blade]

Battlefield 2 had a lot more gameplay going on too. You had the commander, various aircraft and weapons. Squads that were useful.

[static sentinel]

That's a shame, I managed a refund after going 4 hours and realising everything about BF2042 is a step backwards

[gleaming dawn]

dunno, seems like that's the one they paid the most homage to

[upbeat sorrel]

https://tenor.com/view/the-rock-dwayne-johnson-face-off-gif-23494986

[arctic grove]

Any1 remember Battlefield 2 modern combat's artillery strike? fucking EPIC!!!!!!!!!

[royal trail]

will the store eventually sell more than just battlepass year 1?

[winged blade]

Aircraft were terrifying in Battlefield 2.

[gleaming dawn]

JETS

[arctic grove]

This is Victor Alpha 1 artillery strike has been initiated!

[winged blade]

@wispy cliff that was the building you captured or whatever, right?

[arctic grove]

Add the commander back, add a few more vehicles, tone down the M5C boltes speed a bit, add the old squad system and VC, and buff the M5

[cedar sandal]

Commander was dumb, and BF2 aircraft balance was doodoo

[arctic grove]

@static sentinel i have no other game to play so I did play it anyway, had fun farming noobies but how long you can do same shit on same crappy maps, with not stats tracking no goal to do

[cedar sandal]

People would rage even more if BF2042 had aircraft balance like BF2 like jesus.

[arctic grove]

a broken building or something and it had some device in it to call in an artillery strike

add back squad leader artillery stuff

Can't remember the map names though, it was on some dusty / sand / desert map not sure which other ones had it

[spark rapids]

That would be fun, more chaos

[arctic grove]

It was my favorite feature in battlefield 2, the artillery strike, that and mortar strike

yeah, like only one per 100m or something

[winged blade]

@arctic grove Yeah I remember it had a town in the upper middle of the map and there was a point for the arty strike below it.

[arctic grove]

The BF2, CoD4 era was the "golden era" imo, things were broken back then too, but devs didn't nerf things into uselessness as an instant response like they do now. Back then people were like "Hey they can hide C4 in concrete!" and devs were like "cool, try and clear it with a grenade next time".

Just sounded so real, especially how they call it in

[arctic grove]

yeah that's the one, loved it

[cedar sandal]

For people who are nostalgic about BF2 vehicle balance, just remember that there were no handheld lock-on anti-air launchers in BF2, and you could go 200-0 regularly in jets without much skill.

[arctic grove]

Rockets actually did damage in BF2 though.

[fierce trail]

k30 sucks ass

[winged blade]

I said the aircraft were terrifying.

[arctic grove]

add the SMAW or something to 2042 I loved shooting out helis with it

[cedar sandal]

You won't hit a jet in BF2 with a rocket.

[arctic grove]

yea it definitely had bugs and stuff but everything about them just seemed more genuine

[winged blade]

Does anybody remember vehicle balance in the original Battlefield Vietnam?

[gleaming dawn]

J10 supremecy

[fierce trail]

i was so hyped to get to 53 to get the K30, and its a hitmarker machine, what a garbage gun

[arctic grove]

go into solo and get some attachments

[spark rapids]

The SMAY next letter in the abecedary

[arctic grove]

I don't remember playing jets it was so long ago, but I guess you'd need an equally good pilot on your team to handle the enemy jets

[winged blade]

I don't think people know aircraft balance until they've been Napalmed by F-4 Phantoms.

[arctic grove]

Thing is air vehicles are meant to be overpowered as fuck, same as tanks

[royal trail]

the bots on easiest are free pray for attachments

[arctic grove]

tanks no, air vehicles maybe

No to tanks? lol it's a tank.

but it should die when hit with one RPG then.

[cedar sandal]

Yes, which is dumb because a 64 player match comes down to which team has the better jet pilot.

[royal trail]

u can go up 1 against 10 of easy bots and win

[thorn moat]

Have they fixed anything yet . I’m praying it’s. Bf4 turn around lol before I re buy it

[arctic grove]

was it 64 players back then i can't remember?

add a regular RPG or buff the M5

[winged blade]

Battlefield has always been 64 players.

[arctic grove]

BF4's turn around took almost a year and a half lmao.

[cedar sandal]

Yes, there were some server mods that went to 128 like in PR

[arctic grove]

It's just been so damn long

[thorn moat]

Yeah so for now I’m playing fun games and wipe on EFT is coming up anyways so that’ll keep me busy until they fix this game @arctic grove

[winged blade]

PR is still going strong.

[arctic grove]

fuck EFT? better off not buying 2042 then.

[winged blade]

It's standalone now I think.

[thorn moat]

Why?

[arctic grove]

Tarkov players genuinely make the experience worse for everyone playing lmao

[cedar sandal]

The ironic thing about all the people complaining that BF2042 has TOO MANY players is that the BF fan base has been clamoring for 128 players every single game since BF2. I remember a BF3 complaint thread on the old EA forums that the franchise was going backwards because it didn't have 128 players.

[thorn moat]

I’ve been playing battlefield forever sooooo Fym kid , the past bfs since 4 have all be dog water

[arctic grove]

thats how I know you have shit takes.

[fossil trench]

Best AR?

[cedar sandal]

A bunch of BF players went to play planetside because of the player count issue.

[royal trail]

is m5 configured as a smg meta now?

[fossil trench]

Doesn’t planetside have a unlimited player count?

[arctic grove]

yeah I guess. Not OP but def overused.

[cedar sandal]

Yes. It's better than all the SMG.

[thorn moat]

That’s how I know you’re a small brain ignorant pos lol I play bf completely different than I would tarkov, sorry I don’t suck at every game I play like you. Youve probably stuck to one series for your entire time playing games lol

[azure swan]

but I give my dogs Voss water :(

[arctic grove]

nah its about the same as the PBX

I haven't noticed an issue with the 128 player count. It's some times a pain to cap a point solo, but I think it probably should be 😛

[winged blade]

@cedar sandal A lot of the gameplay and map design was sacraficed for 128 players. If they didn't try to reinvent the wheel it would've been okay until the technology was there but we lost a Battlefield game because of the decision to bring in 128 players before it was ready.

[arctic grove]

If you don’t think bf1 was good then your takes are garbage

[arctic grove]

to be honest not much changed except for how big the map is and how dominant vehicles are.

[fossil trench]

.

[arctic grove]

What gameplay and map design was lost?

[cedar sandal]

I don't really care about it much to argue since I play Hazard Zone almost exclusively but I don't think any of the design decisions were made because of 128 players

[royal trail]

bf1 had a good gritty feel to it

[acoustic rose]

Once it is better optimised 128 players will be fine. The biggest problem will be people attempting to play on lower end systems but still being deluded in thinking they can run ultra

[arctic grove]

Is hazard zone even still going? every time i try to que I'm sitting there for half an hour then i give up.

[cedar sandal]

Wat? We get 5 second queues

[glad mist]

hazard zone is dead lmao

[royal trail]

i heavent tried hazard zone yet, is good?

[indigo needle]

No it's not

[thorn moat]

Game was a flop, hopefully it gets fixed by the end of next year

[fossil trench]

Why do you play HZ?

[gleaming dawn]

I've still never tried hazard zone

[cedar sandal]

We literally queue and get a game immediately. My squad complains that they don't have time to look at their new attachments.

[arctic grove]

"we"? do you que with a team or what

[arctic grove]

your lifes a flop lol, you play tarkov lmao.

[fossil trench]

Me neither

[arctic grove]

Maybe it prioritizes teams over solo ques? cause it takes fucking forever

[cedar sandal]

No, when I queue solo or duo, it's still instant

[glad mist]

ofc NA plebs will tell you they get quick queues cause the mm throws them all into one bus while nobody else outside of the US can get annoyed to play that trash anyway

[arctic grove]

what platform?

[winged blade]

Maps are super open, super empty. They seemed to have given up the photorealism approach they used for BF1 and BF5 and makes it look weird and cartoony in comparison. Houses have little detail, what few there are. Not a ton of driveable vehicles out in the wild. Destruction is mostly missing. Things they probably had originally but reduced for better preformance.

[indigo needle]

I haven't had to wait especially long the times I've tried either.

[arctic grove]

I was on PS5 queing with cross platform enabled so idk.

[cedar sandal]

PC but it shouldn't matter because I see console players all the time

[arctic grove]

idk if I believe you but I'll give it another go later lol

[glad mist]

the photorealism was too good in bf1 and 5

[cedar sandal]

Also for people who are crying about lack of scoreboard, you should love Hazard Zone because there's a scoreboard that tells you how well you did at the end of the round.

[arctic grove]

only because I know portal is dying atm, and figured hazard zone would be first.

[gleaming dawn]

Huge view distances though, and a good sense of scale

[acoustic rose]

I dont think there is much in the way of being region tied, I keep coming across people from South Africa despite being UK based

[glad mist]

couldnt see dorks laying in a pile of rock or laying in shadows

[arctic grove]

the vehicles part is true, however the maps are by no means empty theyre just bigger, and the photorealistic approach worked for old-time war games but BF4 didnt have it either because its hard to have a difference in mainly modern-esque environments

[fossil trench]

No scoreboard was an elaborate choice not a missing feature

[cedar sandal]

In fact, people who don't do well just get a MISSION FAILED at the end

[arctic grove]

nah the game has a scoreboard, except its only a squad one.

[gleaming dawn]

They had to remove the scoreboard because I was dominating it too hard

[cinder nebula]

Is it a normal bug to make the game crash and lag the pc out?

[cedar sandal]

No need for a scoreboard to flaunt your superiority just pose as you're the only squad to extract out of the game

[arctic grove]

128 player scoreboard, come on.

[indigo needle]

That's what I did haha.

[gleaming dawn]

make the letters smaller

[arctic grove]

microscopic you mean?

[slow kraken]

DICE struggled for this one, reach out to EA
so they take one step forward and two steps back

[glad mist]

do u guys not know what scroll bars are

[indigo needle]

No, please educate us

[slow kraken]

DICE takes one step forward and two steps back, yeah

[arctic grove]

but that would be hell to use in the middle of a match, locks you in place to see the scoreboard

[thorn moat]

Nah I actually haven’t touched it this wipe @arctic grove so stfu kid, literally you probably live in this discord chat lmfao but since bf2042 literally sucks why am I gonna be in denial about it being terrible and still play it like the rest of you? . Literally to 10 worst reviewed game in steam history

[acoustic rose]

Yeah not needed but better individual stats would be nice. Also the squad stat thing should show me as having 50+ actual kills rather than that one melee kill I got

[glad mist]

u know in internet explorer?
that grey bar on the right of ur screen? click and drag that to places! 🧓

[arctic grove]

im pretty sure dice had it planned well this year but EA forced them to release early for christmas sales. This game definitely needed another year of work.

[indigo needle]

Thank you, I will remember that for the rest of my days.

[arctic grove]

corporate greed

[cedar sandal]

It would be nice if Hazard Zone endscreen showed player vs AI kills rather than credits earned from player/AI kills

[glad mist]

🤗🤗🤗🥰

[arctic grove]

but then again most og devs are gone so idk

[arctic grove]

I don't think another year would do much, it's still garbage with the specialists

gimme back my generic soldiers swearing and carrying on about how their going to fucking die

[glad mist]

noo but specialists are good!!! its new and innovative

[arctic grove]

still, your lifes a flop

[cedar sandal]

Yes, they are.

[arctic grove]

The maps seem as empty as a lot of maps in previous games. I do dislike that there appears to be less destroyable objects in the game. I don't think the game looks cartoony though, I play in 4k maxed settings and have gotten some pretty photorealistic shots in.

[arctic grove]

and it needs maps to be filled with more stuff

[arctic grove]

honestly yeah its fun

[arctic grove]

specialists are ok. They dont hinder gameplay. Its just a replacement for the classes.

[indigo needle]

The only thing I don't like about them is the talking, if they could just shut up I wouldn't mind them at all.

[winged blade]

Maybe a wrong wording then. I feel like the color scheme is off somewhat.

[arctic grove]

only annoying thing to me is sundances character, otherwise specialists is fine

[slow kraken]

Combination of bad devs and bad publisher EA

[arctic grove]

imagine how good it's to be a guy who pulled it off to release the game early and make good sales

[fathom sundial]

The only thing that annoys me about them is the fact that you end up fighting a war with endless clones. Seems very unlikely by 2042 xD

[arctic grove]

and BF4 wasnt?

[thorn moat]

Literally idk why people are trying to save the game. Only in this discord too lol. Game sucks I love bf but the past games since 4 have been SHIT PILES, bf1 was okay got boring VERY fast though. And every COD game for the past few years have been dog water as well. I play a lot of different game genres but definitely FPS games just suck now (besides valorant, warzone is fun sometimes, EFT is great if you’re skilled. And a few others.

[arctic grove]

if anything they add more stuff to the board. With the special abilities like the wingsuit and the grapple hook. Although i do admit that they couldve just added another slot for special gadgets instead. but its there now.

[fathom sundial]

I didn't play 4 so /shrug

[slow kraken]

I hate specialists but every BF game was fighting clones

[lyric lance]

Kinda annoying how Sundance is the only operator that doesn't have soldier-themed appearance imo. All of her appearances are just skydiving suits, literally lol.

[arctic grove]

but there was less diversity in previous bf games from the classes lol

[winged blade]

Plays Battlefield 2042 fart techno in the chat

[glad mist]

imagine being that lead designer who resigned after releasing their beta build of their product as a full game

[arctic grove]

for me the only annoying part is the end screen. AnGeL dOES iT agAIn

[glad mist]

prolly vibing somewhere on the bahamas now

[cedar sandal]

People are mad that instead of having 4 generic characters, now there are 10

[winged blade]

Angel was a mistake.

[glad mist]

you have no clue lmao

[fathom sundial]

I'd rather generic soldier #2 than seeing 28 Angels to be hit with "Angel does it again" when he gets all 3 outstanding performance

[arctic grove]

dawg EFT is GARBO, fuckin MW2019 was goated and Cold War zombies was S-tier, BF1 was a godsend at the end of its lifecycle and BFV had a lack of content but was a fun enough game for a period of time. Plus, you play valorant. Fuck outta here.

[arctic grove]

"it's just a job"

[slow kraken]

I think people are m ore mad they got rid of the classes like myself. I couldn't care what the characters looked like I just wanted that classic BF feel with classes

[winged blade]

Pretty should in later battlefield games you could have different faces and skin colors.

[arctic grove]

lmao, never happened to me but sounds funny.

[fathom sundial]

Exactly 😄

[marble cradle]

I just don't understand why they took basic features like Lobby, scoreboard. It looks like a game made by amateurs, in fact, they would do better

[arctic grove]

Yeah me and my mates have noticed that too, last battlefield we really enjoyed was 4. we kinda liked 1 but not that much. Bayonet charge was cool and hilarious tho

[eager kiln]

How am I at LCMG Mastery lvl 12 and still havent unlocked the fucking extended magazine which according to the tooltip requires Mastery 9 (I also have all the kills needed) ????

[arctic grove]

restart the game

[fathom sundial]

Well at least 2042 isn't a dumpster fire in the gun department like Vanguard

[thorn moat]

You seem like the type of person to use a controller on a PC . You probably can’t aim to save your life and depend on aim assist to save your life. You’re also probably a 12 year old kid

[arctic grove]

That's one of the core essentials that go into any FPS game as well it's soo fucking stupid

[arctic grove]

This is kind of true since in bf1 for example, all the player models were the same for each side. So there would be instances where u see 3 exactly looking scouts prone next to each other. i guess people just dont like the word 'specialists' nowadays

[arctic grove]

youre a tarkov and valorant player dude, please stfu.

[winged blade]

I think 90% of Battlefield 2042's problems is it looks made by amateurs.

[midnight pebble]

Is there a way to disable meele animation ?

[arctic grove]

I don't understand that argument that "everybody looks the same" with the specialists. Uh have you not played any BF game before? There are more specialists then there were classes in any other BF game.

[slow kraken]

It's probably just more the specialists suck but I could hop on BF3 right now and play a match and look around and see 15 medics all looking the exact same. The issue for me is they got rid of the classic classes and some of the specialists are cheesy I admit with their one liners

[tacit river]

People say vehicles are op in this game, it's only the bolte that's op everything else is underpowered

[marble cradle]

I believe it's under the influence of the damn guy who worked in COD and came to BF. Beautiful acquisition of EA...

[arctic grove]

the scoreboard is still in the game, except its a squad one not an individual one. and the lobby disbanding and no VC need to go.

[thorn moat]

Sorry buddy but I’m not a shitter lol and I’m Actually good at shooters . You need to research the 7 stages of denial and grief cause that’s what all of you trying to say this game is good along with the past BF games AFTER 4 have been good , you said bf5 was good? Lmao you’re cringe asf

[fathom sundial]

I think that's a bit far tbh. It's not got the polish of some other games but it's definitely more than a group of amateurs could manage, within a reasonable timescale

[cedar sandal]

They need to add voice chat yeah

[glad mist]

the 4 classes in itself always were a fundamental part of encouraging teamplay and maintaing balance between each individual weapon class and gadget, from a very simple and barebone video game design standpoint.
Go figure why this game plays so fucking dogshit with no teamplay at all now that there are no longer classes and then come back and explain how great specialists are in their current state and form.

[reef kestrel]

The head design can add in his CV he was the head of design of Bf2042 and work for others dev studio and fuck up their game.

[winged blade]

Frostbite is doing all the heavy lifting here, Shotgun.

[arctic grove]

go back to valorant kid, you sound salty AF that you arent good at anything and get clapped by scavs in tarkov

[cedar sandal]

We'll get voice chat when they finish this game in 2042

[royal trail]

several bf games have had a rough start, but has become great after time of extra content and optimization. so hoping for a perfect bf launch is kind of ignorant. i still believe in DICE to make it out

[marble cradle]

This 2042 is made in frostbite? The graphics are so ugly compared to Battlefield 1/V

[arctic grove]

''wow you play insert game name here?? Dude you are such a dumbass for playing insert game name here. Since idk what an opinion is i am now going to act superior to you for playing insert game name here"

[thorn moat]

Lmfao says this shitter that thinks COD Cold War was good, and the previous BF games after 4, you were probably still a baby when bf4 was in its prime

[arctic grove]

Haha😂 😂 so true

[arctic grove]

he said that valorant and tarkov are better games than BF1 and BFV.

[lyric lance]

BF1 is good tho

[glad mist]

PREACH, my guy. @thorn moat

[reef kestrel]

I feelbad for the studio who will hire that guy who worked as a head of design in dice.

[arctic grove]

Cold War Zombies was indeed good?

[winged blade]

BF1 was def a weird battlefield experience though.

[arctic grove]

hardline was ass but bf1 was good. as for bfv im not gonna go there that game was shit.

[glad mist]

because ColdWar was a zombie focused CoD right?

[arctic grove]

BF1 is okay. Hit reg was still garbo though. I think 2042 netcode is the best they had so far.

[arctic grove]

yeah...those poor bastards aren't going to know what fucked them until it's too late.

V is a good game but lacks severely in content.

[thorn moat]

This dudes a joke

[slow kraken]

Expecting a decently made game at launch is not ignorant lol. They have fucked up on the past with BF4 etc but they should improve and improve not get worse. BF1 launched pretty damn well so there is no excuse for them to be going backwards at this point.

[idle crater]

noob

[arctic grove]

to each their own

[arctic grove]

the multiplayer sucked NUTS, Ill give you that. however it had some of the best zombies maps to date

[marble cradle]

I think they should stop inventing all over BF, keep a BF1 quality standard with BF3 / BF4 mechanics.

[glad mist]

[winged blade]

V feels way too Arcadey. I wish they would've went back and done classic BF mechanics instead of adding new ones.

[glad mist]

suck my tits gunzz

[fathom sundial]

Completely depends on what "decently made" means to the individual person looking at it. Obviously agree though

[arctic grove]

honestly it just sounds like you dont want new things in BF games.

[thorn moat]

Real life pepega

[winged blade]

Spawning into Vehicles on a menu screen is kinda crap. Should be on the map.

[arctic grove]

I didn't like V at all, the visuals are okay, but I hate all of the maps and all of the guns...

[idle crater]

i will suck many titties 28 kills left to t1 the helis

[glad mist]

[reef kestrel]

Blame the leadership going in diff. direction that fuck up Battlefield.

[fathom sundial]

Ayyy I miss spawning and running to the choppa

[arctic grove]

If I wanted to play a WW2 game I'd play HLL over V tbh

[slow kraken]

HLL is great

[thorn moat]

Yeah literally but some weird basement goblin @arctic grove thinks V was a good game 😢

[winged blade]

HLL is so god damn immersive.

[idle crater]

yall need sum minigun spam smh

[glad mist]

the shitter u are
reinstall BF3 so we can play an actual good game

[arctic grove]

I got my ass kicked on HLL. Played for few hours think I only ever saw 3 enemies, got headshot 500 times.

V isnt a good game by any standards, but still better than fuckin VALORANT. the gunplay and map design in V was top tier, everything else however was ass.

[arctic grove]

only good thing about bfv was the gunplay and even that is an overstatement. every gun felt like the same fucking thing.

[idle crater]

bf4 is always installed🥰

[raw glacier]

does the 4x have glint

[glad mist]

3

[thorn moat]

You’re weird kid

[arctic grove]

this is true, but like come on. Valorant is still worse than V.

The only good thing about V is that it's in the past.

[arctic grove]

always 😄

[slow kraken]

Valorant and BF are way different lol

[arctic grove]

that i agree on. but still, to each their own.

[idle crater]

3!!! thats a tier of pog i havent tried yet

[arctic grove]

nailed it

[glad mist]

ive been figuring to reinstall BF3 for a couple days

[arctic grove]

thats true but Valorant is just a bad mix of overwatch and CSGO that nobody asked for.

[winged blade]

I think vehicles not spawning on the map has hurt the game in the long run. Denying the enemy them was an extra layer of strategy you can't get anymore.

[slow kraken]

Valorant and BF are way different lmao. Have you even played them?

[thorn moat]

Yeah he thinks me talking about better shooters than COD and BF series is comparing them as the same . Literally just COD and BF fell off a while ago. And yes that’s why valorant is one of the most played competitive FPS games at the moment

[arctic grove]

is it alive

[glad mist]

That's the kind of playerbase they made this game for

[fathom sundial]

Yeah, setting up a squad raid on the enemy spawn. Making it in and grabbing the chopper within the death timer was really fun

[thorn moat]

I had my hopes of for 2042 n after the beta I literally refunded it

[winged blade]

Plus if someone stole an enemy vehicle, that one couldn't spawn anymore so your team tried to keep it alive long as possible.

[thorn moat]

Literally a bunch of weird Pepe trolls

[arctic grove]

I've played every BF since 1942 and V is the only one that got uninstalled after 1 day of playing lol.

personally im gonna wait for a few months for the devs to fix the game like they always do and if they dont, oh well.
