battlefield-2042

[hot yacht]

Wait what? Alot of people say their fps increase in 64p

[lunar venture]

gtfo

[loud flower]

I think there is
You can force recording in another resolution I think
But try checking for Nvidia options in the game's setting menu

[proper river]

At least BFV had classes, though the extra characters were garbage

[neat whale]

yup can't argue with that, even the maps bro, look kaleidoscope, I thought we're gonna had a map like the shangai map but lmao we just got an empty playground surrounded by buildings with absolutely 0 levolution

[crude phoenix]

Anyone else struggling to get in conquest?

[white dagger]

Is there someone else who can’t do the weekly challenges?

[white geyser]

Now as for DICE, they better see the feedback from the fans telling them to do both fixing the game and giving us a specific content we want to make a comeback.

[waxen radish]

If you have crossplay on pc yeah not optimizing

[lime crystal]

Yes, keeps sending me back to main screen

[proper river]

I don't think they care

[crude phoenix]

No crossplay, xbox only, cant join a game

[lunar venture]

dude i was driving a tank, a goddamn TANK, and i tried to smash through one of those little 10x10 buildings and the building stopped me dead in my tracks.

i got off after that and haven't opened the game since.

that was over a week ago

[white geyser]

They better listen not some idiotic greedy bullshit or it will anger the fans even more

[arctic grove]

they wont listen

[lunar venture]

i think you're the only one here trying to play this shitstain of a game

[neat whale]

Tom Henderson : In other news, the theory that #battlefield-legacy-titles2042 started as a Battle Royale is true

As soon as I saw that, I understood why the game was shit lmao, why do we have a specialist that drops loadouts if it wasn't for being in a battle royale

[hot yacht]

But yes BFV with rtx looks way better than 2042

[arctic grove]

yep

[hot yacht]

2042 texture looks good from far away but closely it's really flat.

[neat whale]

Totally !

[frozen ember]

I was going to ask that too

[lunar venture]

meh. :BFV still looks better in literally every way0

[frozen ember]

Map loads and it gets back to the menu right @crude phoenix?

[lime crystal]

There's a fix for that, just move to the side a bit

[white geyser]

Bring back boycotting EA and DICE to fight back for not making battlefield a great game

[lunar venture]

you must've missed the point of my comment or you're being sarcastic

[lime crystal]

[hot yacht]

Oh I agree.

[forest oriole]

the next big update and season pass will show us if it's worth it. Just wait one month. I bet ppl will be more angry than now ;d

[hot yacht]

I love bfv. It's amazing. Gunplay is by far the best as well.

[frail sparrow]

bfv best bf

[lunar venture]

and i just love how they use the excuse that they had to work from home. last i checked, vaccines exist and have been around for well over a year now. they could have easily went back to their main offices, finished and polished the game, and maybe we'd be in a different boat right now

[frail sparrow]

vaccines aren't cures. you can still get infected if you're vaccinated

[lunar venture]

the revive system, the graphics, gunplay, audio, lighting, literally everything is better

[white geyser]

I still have BF1 and 4 to play if I change my mind

[lunar venture]

no shit sherlock

[paper pollen]

so who's the latest mute recipient?

[lethal junco]

So people are saying 100+ fps on a 1080p 4.x clock, let's see how well my time bomb works at this res

[lament plank]

wow feels awesome when i land my attack chopper to repair it out in a safe area, only to have an AI spawn in it and fly away. jesus dice learn some basic AI programming.

[frail sparrow]

you say "no shit, sherlock' but then make a dumb statement that could still spread the virus further to others through infection at their workplace. then it's not so obvious for you at all, it seems.

[proper river]

lol here we go

[arctic grove]

The earth is flat and COVID is a hoax

[lunar venture]

im not going to argue with someone who is okay with stagnating the world

[lethal junco]

Does 300 FPS in the loading screen count as a benchmark

[hot yacht]

No lol

[lunar venture]

im glad im not the only one...

[arctic grove]

we cant shut the whole world down dumbass

Big brain time. There is no curve

[hot yacht]

@lethal junco i can walk thru ur oc if u want.

[neat whale]

There is people benchmarking using the draw fps overlay that does not at all provide the real fps tho

[arctic grove]

"world". Do you mean GLOBE?

[lunar venture]

yes we can because there will be absolutely NO fallout or repercussions in doing so

[lethal junco]

I'm joking, I'm currently clocked to 5.1GHz with an unknown GPU OC because i'm still running curve predictions

4000MHz DDR4 on XMP2
High settings at 1080p Res
90fps

[arctic grove]

no i mean disc

Good. Just making sure.

[arctic grove]

yes. absolutely none

[hot yacht]

https://www.3dmark.com/spy/23800299

My 3Dmark results

4133 cl15 Yolo edition

[arctic grove]

People in Australia walk on their hands

[white geyser]

Just few more leveling up to unlock MC5 Bolte and ready to use it

[lethal junco]

I'll take a look

[rapid oracle]

How do you take down the tower on caspian border?

[lunar venture]

i feel bad for people in Australia

[frail sparrow]

in 2042, that happens automatically near the end of the match. as it was in bf3

[arctic grove]

you can take it down

[lethal tangle]

I thought you had to destroy the cables to bring down the tower in bf3?

[arctic grove]

you do

[frail sparrow]

nah that's 4

[lethal tangle]

Or am I thinking of that bf4 map

[frail sparrow]

you can force it to fall in bf4's caspian border 2014 version yeah

[lethal tangle]

Diff tower tho

There was a map in bf4 where I'm pretty sure you could destroy the cables. The map had like a big dish or something in the center of it

[arctic grove]

love that map

Radio transmission or something

It was fun. BF4 had great maps

[lethal tangle]

Bf3 imo had better maps. But bf4 felt better

[arctic grove]

I want a modern locker.

[slow mulch]

i miss being able to bring down things

[arctic grove]

they should just start supporting bf4 again and only make new maps. change nothingn else lmao

[lethal tangle]

Wasn't that one bf1 map a locker map essentially?

[frail harbor]

Watching a zeppelin come down 🥵

[arctic grove]

Idk, I just like giant cluster fucks sometimes

[frail sparrow]

wasn't radio transmission the map where you could spawn in a plane with turrets or am i thinking of a different map

[lethal tangle]

Siege of Shanghai

[arctic grove]

lmao

[lethal tangle]

You could do that on most maps as long as there's a commander playing calling in gunships

[slow mulch]

Yeah and that chimney thing

[lethal tangle]

I think bf3 armored assault introduced gunships without the need of a commander though

[frail sparrow]

nah it was like a trailer you had to jump into to spawn the plane

[odd sand]

finally got the mcs 880 skin, that was a bitch to do on rush

[lethal tangle]

Try and explain it more. I play bf4 daily so it's not a distant memory for me

[arctic grove]

dice literally be acting dumb and def when it comes to features we need in the game

[lethal tangle]

Plane with turrets.... I just keep thinking of the gunship called in by the commander

[arctic grove]

The ac-130

[lethal tangle]

I'll Google that. I don't remember a ac-130 in bf4

[arctic grove]

And yeah it was on radio transmission

[lament plank]

because most custom servers turned it off i think

[arctic grove]

It's in there. Seen it on the storm map too.

[lethal tangle]

It's called in by the commander

It's not a map exclusive feature

[arctic grove]

I'm disappointed 2042 doesn't have china

[lethal tangle]

You have to capture C or something to make your commander be able to spawn it. But commanders have been disabled on a lot of servers because there's a lot of times where only one team will have a commander and the other team won't. The only unbalanced thing of bf4 imo

[arctic grove]

there honeslty arent any countries

[arctic grove]

the same bullshit clonewars specialists

Condor is best condor

[frail sparrow]

https://battlefield.fandom.com/wiki/Altai_Range it was on altai_range, once you captured the middle point, you could just enter a building/trailer thing and jump into a bomber. you didn't need to have a commander to spawn it in 🙂

[median path]

do i have to complete everything in weekly mission to get the skin or just 1

[lethal tangle]

Ohhhh the bomber!!! Yeah it's on multiple maps. Silk road, some jungle one, the snow one that isn't hanger 21

[knotty bobcat]

Everything

[frail sparrow]

yeah it was a bomber 😄

[median path]

bruh

[knotty bobcat]

Play aggressive on rush with a shoty as angel or falck

[lethal tangle]

Hahaha yes! I don't remember it being on transmission but you could get your commander to call in a gunship which had like 3 turrets shooting explosive rounds with IR sights.

Was a bit OP if one team had a commander and the other didnt

[frail sparrow]

uhuh, it was a lot of fun. i dont think it was on transmission, i just confused the name with that map haha

[dense terrace]

u just seat swap? i wish people couldnt spawn in so I can do my thing ^_^

[lethal tangle]

Honestly Altai range or whatever is probably the least played map now. It's rarely voted in. That or zavod graveyard shift

[dense terrace]

its annoying to keep switching squads to end up in solo one and then hope nobody joins 😄

[lament plank]

theres no china in this game because EA wants china to buy the game. duh. anyone with common sense can see that china would for sure overtake russia as the dominant communist country in 20 years.

[arctic grove]

if only you could switch squads in 2042

[frail sparrow]

true.

[modern sandal]

hello guys im new here just wonder if BF2042 dose support normal Xbox game pass not the ultimate one

[arctic grove]

neither, w ultimate you can get a 10 hour trial but the game sucks

[dense terrace]

you can, its tedious though. you have to press esc and go to team and squads then click on your name and it switches... fucking hilarious how hard they made it

[arctic grove]

No I rammed into a hind solo

[arctic grove]

xD

[lethal tangle]

Good memories of that game eh?

[modern sandal]

Oooh ok thx i guess XD

[dense terrace]

hahah wait so how did u survive and hind didn't 😄

[frail sparrow]

you get access to 2042 through ea play that is included in gamepas ultimate, not sure if it's in normal game pass

[arctic grove]

I’m asking myself the same thing

[dense terrace]

man that would be cool... having ram vehicles :DDDD be that flying or ground

[modern sandal]

when i join the game it give me error message and i still have 3h left

[dense terrace]

its super hard and terrible to do C4 quad in this game... which is sad. [c5 in this case]

[arctic grove]

Leaving squads so your own teammates don’t steal ur vehicles, when?

[dense terrace]

you can swap squads but its hard to end up in an empty one... remember times that you had to join squad otherwise you were squadless? yeah those were the times.

[arctic grove]

Lmao yeah

Just lost a match, but I got the most kills and the most captures all I have to say is:
AH! Angel does it again

[golden geode]

i heard the rooftop point got moved on kaleidoscope. where did it end up?

[dense terrace]

downstairs

[arctic grove]

There helicopters that need to switch seats and cars, transport to work and suddenly xX42069JeffXx spawned in ur vehicle and uses to get in the object

[dense terrace]

where elevators are

yeah attack helis are best just to solo pilot and nuke from afar sadly

then BOB_1234 enters and you're fucked, u can just idle and type but 80% players in this game dont seem to read chat

[coral trellis]

High power rounds need to be buffed

They should increase damage

[dense terrace]

b-but that 5 DAMUG

[arctic grove]

The only thing you can do when ur teammates steals ur vehicle is Hold Q and click on “get out”

[lethal tangle]

I honestly never played breakthrough before the update. But couldn't you just spawn in a transport heli to get the roof top like we had to do in bf4 to get Shanghai?

[dense terrace]

yeah that and type in squad chat in caps 😄

[coral trellis]

The m5a3 high power rounds only decrease the amount of round required to kill at range

[earnest verge]

littlebirds are stomping attack helis, just fly towards them and minigun, they cant do anything really

[dense terrace]

you are dead within 5s if u fly up there 😄

[hazy storm]

Are servers down right now?

[arctic grove]

People in Rush never use team chat

[grave prism]

what is the point of subsonic ammo

[lethal tangle]

Just fly extremely high so it's hard to get shot down or is that not a thing in 2042?

[dense terrace]

skybox is pretty low tbh

[coral trellis]

But how are you supposed to help your team

[lethal tangle]

Does it show how far the distance is before you can lock on? Is it 350m like bf4?

[lethal tangle]

On bf4 I fly extremely high so my team can constantly spawn on me

[arctic grove]

Bf4 was on 500 or not?

[dense terrace]

but yeah u can do that with attack heli thats what i was talking about, chill solo on pilot then swap to gunner do some volleys swap back fly around repeat. and then random pleb enters your gunner seat and won't leave ^^

[shell crest]

The vehicles are ridiculous in this game,what a pity

[grave prism]

skybox too high you can sit 500m in the air and just kill people with canon while they can't shoot you it so fkin stupid

[arctic grove]

Why did I just read skybase instead skybox

[dense terrace]

das where jets come in

[earnest verge]

^ this guy gets it

[lethal tangle]

It depends. Stinger needs to be 350 and I think vehicle lasers had to be 500

[grave prism]

yes if your team are not in the attack helicopter because dice are smart and lumped all air vehicles together

[earnest verge]

i do miss vehicle spawning on ground

[lethal tangle]

Exactly the only thing that ends my team spawn point flying high in the heli is a jet. Called the enemy team had to scramble to provide teamwork and overcome the varying approaches the enemy can have

[arctic grove]

Can you even dive under the water in bf24?

[frail sparrow]

no

[earnest verge]

legacy

[grave prism]

people diving underwater was the most annoying shit in bf5

[lethal tangle]

But it was a healthy annoyance

[hazy storm]

Are servers down?

Are servers down? For 2042

[grave prism]

it wasnt, it added nothing to the game, theyd get killed as soon as they get out of the water anyway

[lethal tangle]

Wooo another 7.47 miles biked. Bruh I've biked over 15 miles so far talking in here lmao

My ass is so sore

[earnest verge]

you had problems winning duels vs some dude that cant shoot back?

[hazy storm]

Are servers down

[dense terrace]

how do u type while biking what is this sorccery

[grave prism]

yes

[hazy storm]

I want to play but cant connect

[earnest verge]

u cant play even if u connect so dont sweat it

[dense terrace]

i bike to work daily

[lethal tangle]

But it was great for the other person because it gave them small hope. Especially for naval maps. I remember ducking underwater when I'd hear a boat coming and resurface when it passed and felt so sneaky

[lethal tangle]

Hahaha I'm at the gym

[hazy storm]

When do servers go back up?

[dense terrace]

ohh

[hazy storm]

I really want to play I dont understand servers were working fine friday

[lethal tangle]

But yeah idk I think it added the ability to go stealth especially on naval maps

[dense terrace]

i have to disable and re-enable my network card between each round otherwise i will find games but nothing happens it finds a match and after 10 seconds gets be back to main menu but i already accpeted it as a feature... no idea why it happens

[lethal tangle]

Like I said earlier, was great for trying to sneak my way to an objective such as the waters on Shanghai instead of taking the land route I could try and go underwater as long as I could.

[dense terrace]

it was like that since closed beta

[lethal tangle]

Idk instead now the alternative is jump off an ant hill and fly 200 meters with a wingsuit. Pick your poison.

[hazy storm]

@dense terrace I have a ps4 and have play it only twice and never had to do anything between rounds to keep servers finding matches?

Why cant I play battlefield

Wtf is this

[dense terrace]

no idea man. this game is a mystery 😛

an adorable product

[slow mulch]

The question i wanna ask. When will we get to play 'Patriated' instead of non-Patriated?

[lethal tangle]

I honestly thought they had no pats to avoid offending any one country.

[quartz furnace]

why the fuck are my settings getting reset every time I launch this dogshit?

[lethal tangle]

I could be wrong, but avoiding offending anyone kind of resonates throughout the rest of the game Idk. Just my observation.

[earnest verge]

team blue v s team red would make more sense than russia vs usa at this point

[slow mulch]

really? @lethal tangle pc brigade gone to far

[quartz furnace]

Better to piss off every country by saying if you aren't america or russia you fucking suck/probably die in the future

[lethal tangle]

I don't know man. They got two countries but no countries, they got a serious tone to the game but introduce a silly Santa clause skin. I can't tell you what they're thinking at dice. Perhaps it's a result of too many studios working on it idk man.

[earnest verge]

marketed as serious war game, plays and looks like softball middleschool tournament where everyone gets a first price in the end

[lethal tangle]

Well they literally said in a statement that they want everyone to feel like they won at the end of a game.

[earnest verge]

yeh, they made the game really woke swedish for sure

[lament plank]

ok when is the end squad screen gonna show a relevant stat. i just had 35 kills in the attack chopper. what does it show at the end? the 35 damage i repaired on it.....like.....come on....

[arctic grove]

Biking and texting I'm FBI agent I'll be on hot pursuit chasing trouble makers

[lethal tangle]

Idk I'm gonna post a quote and it's long and I hope it's not considered spam.

"EA later confirmed that these features were not omitted by mistake and that it was DICE’s intention not to include them.
“The intent is to provide players with a sense of pride and accomplishment for playing as different heroes regardless of skill. As for end of round screen, we selected individuality as base value based upon data from our monetization team and adjustments was made to make all players feel as winners in each game"

[earnest verge]

my favorite is when i got most kills, most caps, most defends, and MPV for 1 thrown object, made me feel really special

[arctic grove]

Slothy's Take: EA ruins games when they buy them.

[lament plank]

yeah that 35 damage i repaired one time really was special lol

[lethal tangle]

But battlefield was lit for years while under ea. Idk just slowly started going south starting with hardline.

[earnest verge]

thank god they lost the rights to starwars, looks like the next game finnaly what we wanted

[lethal tangle]

Would be sweet if Embark got the license for star wars but sadly they're too small and probably can't afford it let alone the marketing to make a profit off the expensive licensing.

[earnest verge]

bro the trailer for the next game is out, go check it

[lethal tangle]

I will, but have you seen or heard of embark? I believe they're the ones if anything that should have it.

[arctic grove]

True. I wonder what Ubisoft will due with their star wars shit.

[lethal tangle]

Omg what ubisoft has star wars?!?!

[earnest verge]

im not looking forward to ubisoft ruining starwars tbh, their open world games been no good all the time

[lethal tangle]

You guys realize who joined ubisoft in 2016 right????

[fossil trench]

Just use lock on missiles. 2 hits and the little birds are dead

[ashen nebula]

Arc Raiders can’t come soon enough. Will I get banned for saying that ? 😆

[lethal tangle]

If he has say in the new star wars irs gonna be amazing

[arctic grove]

https://www.ubisoft.com/snowdrop/games/the-star-wars-project 🤷‍♂️

[lethal tangle]

Ubisoft making star wars under the direction of Patrick Bach is gonna be great

[earnest verge]

thats why u fly to them and not away from them, u wont be able to lock a single time

[lethal tangle]

Take a minute to read Patrick Bach impressive resume

https://www.mobygames.com/developer/sheet/view/developerId,154917/

[earnest verge]

totaly missed patrick, interessting idd

[lethal tangle]

Literally wrote and created the story of the beloved bad company story and directed the cut scenes. Senior producer for bc2 and executive producer for bf3 and 4, also was vice president of DICE during bf1. He's at ubisoft now and I hope he's in control of Stat wars

[tame cobalt]

The no-pats, usa, russia story makes complete sense in the lore, but yeah go on, don't wanna take another thing for yall to hate circlejerk over, get back to it

[earnest verge]

man u happy with the game im glad for you, most people are not. They get massiv hate circlejerk cause there is so much material to jerk about. And if we dont, they gonna keep doing it

[warm gorge]

so true

[lethal tangle]

Yup

[warm gorge]

https://www.reddit.com/r/battlefield2042/comments/res9vw/betafield_2042_the_next_gen_experience/

[lethal tangle]

The hate is warranted. I've little interest in the lore so perhaps my vision of nopats is quite limited. I'll give you that @tame cobalt

[tame cobalt]

Lol yall are so sad

[arctic grove]

We will see. Massive Entertainment is creating the game. 🤷‍♂️

[analog stirrup]

lmfao "the lore"

[earnest verge]

And if you wanna go all lore on me, give me a campaign.......

[lethal tangle]

I'm curious as to what ubisoft has cooking up, but ultimately Patrick can only be told what to do and his creative freedom is limited. I do like embark for their vision of having developer freedom

[earnest verge]

ya, they shoulda market it with Patrik making a game instead of ubisoft making a game, Patrik is gr8

[lethal tangle]

Man if Patrick and facepunch studios joined embark and there was no competition clause agreements then i think DICE/EA would be In deep deep water

Co founder of dice left to make face punch along with 1 or 2 other guys. Like 8 other dice devs left to embark. If they all just joined and tried making a battlefield killer I seriously think dice/ea would be in for a treat. Just dreaming though.

[tame cobalt]

🆒

[earnest verge]

i think its awesome they all went for new things, make the future exiting. Battlefield has strong legacy legs to stand on, shouldnt be a problem really

[lethal tangle]

I'd love to see it though. Competition is only healthy. Since gamers can't have willpower to not buy the game to persuade publishers to make changes and vote with their wallet, our only hope is a bf killer imo

[tame cobalt]

Lol

[coral trellis]

Buff high-power

[tender folio]

[tame cobalt]

Buff your skill

[lethal tangle]

Like if everyone who complains of this game never bought the game EA would likely respond. Instead they're counting their money and muted our complaints.

[coral trellis]

What does skill got to do with high power

[tame cobalt]

[arctic grove]

2042 really isn't that bad of a game. i just look past some stupid little bugs here and there but im having an overall good experience 🤷‍♂️

[coral trellis]

High power should do more damage

[ornate charm]

no.

[earnest verge]

State need to step in, make some fraud laws to cover this broken mess the industry is going for imo

[coral trellis]

Why

[analog stirrup]

the people in charge at dice 100% knew this would be the death of the franchise and fully accelerated it., while planning their escape in advance. Absolutely based

[lethal tangle]

Exactly, which is why it's hard to vote with our wallet because under all the bs it's still fun.

[coral trellis]

Shouldn't larger rounds do more damage

[tame cobalt]

Lol you are so wrong

[arctic grove]

hello everybody
going to spend 300$ on s1 skins

bf 2142 when

[analog stirrup]

K

[tame cobalt]

Based

[arctic grove]

they're actually trying to fix the game at a good pace unlike their previous BF titles

[lethal tangle]

I mean the developers who don't agree with the direction are hopping off rapidly. Sadly the heads don't see the iceberg on their titanic though.

[quartz furnace]

yeah the svk changes make that gun completely useless

[tame cobalt]

Average facts enjoyer

[earnest verge]

maybe, but the supressor makes the m5 to a 9 bullet ttk @ 50 meters for some reason

[tame cobalt]

Average bad aim enjoyer

[lethal tangle]

How many days do we have to wait before they come out with the next patch again?

[arctic grove]

a lot of the people critiquing the game are really hopping on a band wagon but unfortunately that's meta whenever a game comes out not up to par with our standards

[quartz furnace]

has nothing to do with aim, the way recoil works in this game is bad, it slows your movement after a shot so you can't actually re-adjust manually you have to wait for the recoil cooldown before the mouse starts responding properly

[lethal tangle]

Idk I can't picture someone sitting there, thoroughly enjoying the game and loving it saying "hmm these people are trashing this game i like to the ground, I'm gonna join in because it's trendy!"

[analog stirrup]

it doesn't take a genius to see that after rank 60 the game is fucking boring

[idle crater]

100% just spot them for what they are and ignore

[arctic grove]

No hud milsim bf3 servers are fun af

[quartz furnace]

if they just made the mouse jump a lot that would be fine, but the fact that there is a cooldown and an automatic reset of the point of aim is what fucks it up

[tame cobalt]

svk ttk is still mad just wait for the recoil adjustment

[arctic grove]

Put your ar on semi auto plink at people far away its great

[earnest verge]

the 10% calling out the 90% is funny to me

[lethal tangle]

^^^

[lethal reef]

Am I allowed to post my YouTube link in this chat?

[tame cobalt]

Did you just say m*lsim? 🤢

[lethal tangle]

#500058972234055710

[tame cobalt]

Yall gonna stay mad when 2042 makes a fire recovery and the next game is a banger?

[earnest verge]

if the next game a banger, nothing to be mad bout is there now

[analog stirrup]

lol next game, come on now

[arctic grove]

got 2 long years ahead of us

[tame cobalt]

Nah fam it's been getting better every week and season 1 is right around the corner

[lethal tangle]

Imagine thinking we're upset just to be upset lol. No we actually don't like the changes in the game dude

[lethal reef]

I actually really like the game

[arctic grove]

i'm pretty happy battlefield went back to the modern-ish scheme. i was playing BF4 through BF1 and BFV.

[analog stirrup]

can you still drive the hovercraft up the walls?

[tame cobalt]

You missed out

[lethal tangle]

Same, still playing bf4 tho

[arctic grove]

the world war scene really got stale for me

[quartz furnace]

yeah I'm still playing the game and trying to give feedback, I think the entire recoil system in this engine is problematic, compared to bf1 and bfv the gun play is way worse

[earnest verge]

i can accept change i dont like and moveon, what im mad about is the flat out lyin in qa and marketing then ripp us off and then put it on sale when they refound timed out

[arctic grove]

not really. i had my fair share of both BF1 and BFV but I personally liked BFV better as a world war title.

[lethal tangle]

I mean I bought 1 and 5 and have like 100 hours, but during those times I had more hours in bf4 then the other ones.

@earnest verge yeah for me personally it's the removal of classes, all chat and rented servers. Those are my big three

[arctic grove]

not like anyone really used VOIP in battlefield anyways.

[low solar]

[daring wren]

Anyone else having random crashes on pc? Seems to happen at the end of games

[tame cobalt]

Nah just facts

[lethal tangle]

I use it, I feel like consoles use it a lot but idk I play on pc

[daring wren]

BF4 had a rocky start too. I'm optimistic.

[tame cobalt]

Arc raiders is also hype tho. Thank god we can like more than 1 thing

[arctic grove]

I played BF on pc all my life. I rarely ever heard anyone ever talking on VOIP lol

[analog stirrup]

BF4 was a Battlefield game though, not a hero shooter

[low solar]

To be honest it was worse than 2042. I just don’t have faith in any big AAA companies any more. They just want to pad their pockets and appease investors

[lethal tangle]

Yeah why use voip when you can be a cancerous little shit typing on pc

[wide shore]

We don’t. Everyone is always in party chat

[tame cobalt]

Was this statement supposed to have meaning?

[arctic grove]

I feel like the whole "no VOIP" thing is just another thing for people to bicker about when 90% of players never really used it. especially with discord blowing up the way it did.

[lethal tangle]

Even when playing with random you guys opt to go to the consoles ui and track down your squad and send a party invite rather then just use voip?

[arctic grove]

but like I said I speak from PC and I usually just squad up w/ my buddies through discord or I'm playing solo.

[lethal tangle]

I just feel like there were some people out there that did just because I didn't doesn't make my opinion and experience over ride others.

[wide shore]

What I mean is, we are usually in a party with friends instead of talking to the squad. Even if the people we’re talking to aren’t playing the game we’re playing.

[daring wren]

In my experience I'd rather talk to my friends which usually fill the squad anyway so it doesn't matter. Or talking to friends on diff games in party chat vs talking to some randoms

[analog stirrup]

Yes. BF2042 is a hero shooter with integrity removed and replaced with Micro-transactions and battle passes. While BF4 was a Battlefield game.

[lethal tangle]

Ah I see, yall got friends who still game lol

[wide shore]

BF2042 is a Battlefield game.

[low solar]

Look at his name and profile picture. You’re talking with a meme account bruh. Don’t feed the trolls please

[analog stirrup]

Lmao

[earnest verge]

voip make it easier to make more and new friends

[lethal tangle]

Most my friends moved on so I'm usually the one to talk in voip and I still do in bf4

[daring wren]

Holding onto them for dear life. I play warzone just to satisfy my one buddy so he keeps playing games lol

[arctic grove]

It's not really a micro-transaction if you're buying year passes like people did on BFV. It's just another DLC in my eyes. Real micro-transactions on a BF game were Battlefield Heroes and Battlefield play4free.

[wide shore]

You can cry all day long about it. But the fact remains the same. It doesn’t just stop being a battlefield game because it doesn’t meet your criteria.

[lethal tangle]

Hahaha i mean I got a few friends who game. One is solely dedicated to overwatch and the other is LoL. Neither i have an interest. They'll seldom come on bf4 tho.

[daring wren]

But yeah voip is useful in any game for meeting new ppl and most ppl are cooperative and want to contribute something to win

[arctic grove]

I remember spending heavy money on them free games 😭 It took forever to unlock stuff.

i prefer bf2042 over bf1

bf1 is the most boring bf ive ever played

[wide shore]

[paper pollen]

they had to dare to do something different. they could have made bf4 all over again...but then the crying about it being exactly like bf4 would ensue

[analog stirrup]

but you're the one crying😂

[low solar]

It doesn’t meet the criteria of most BF games lol dynamic mapping is gone and there’s no point to engineer/medic/assault/sniper. It became a Fortnite/COD game.

[wide shore]

I’m not. I’m retorting your ridiculous claims.

[lethal tangle]

What bf4 did then is not popular now. EA thought their foundation of innovation wasn't cutting the mustard for being #1 fps game of the year so they attempted to copy but make better of current trends

[tame cobalt]

👑

[analog stirrup]

BF2042 isn't a cash shop, hero shooter disguised as a video game? Really?

[wide shore]

It’s a massive, sandbox shooter with destruction. With a mix of infantry and vehicles. It doesn’t get any more battlefield than that.

[lethal tangle]

Yeah they still kept some things traditional but we have to admit they blurred the lines more between what makes battlefield different then what it shares with other games.

[arctic grove]

I disagree with the Fortnite/COD comparison. I been noticing a lot lately in text chat about people complaining about dying through vehicles. It takes a good player to really dominate in a helicopter, jet, tank, etc. But if it's not in your skill set you'll just die in a matter of minutes or crash lol.

[hidden sand]

I think people are jumping the gun way to fast on thinking the pacing of these updates will remain the same. Most of these updates were made before launch, and only touched up upon with player feedback and data happening with the launch. There's not really anything to suggest it'll keep this pace.

[daring wren]

I know this isn't the channel but we're Hosting 128 player "Infected" crossplay search for it on Portal. It's the v3.221 [US] server. 40 ppl currently and growing. It's the only nonstop fun I've had with this game's rocky launch.

[wide shore]

Because Battlefield has never been riddled with microtransactions and stupid bullshit you can buy right?

[arctic grove]

sorry but the meta is mtx rn

No one ever complained about buying premium or year passes tbh until now

[grave prism]

that just isnt true

[quartz furnace]

I think microtransactions are fine, they should have just focused on skins for the generic classes instead of cringe heros

[arctic grove]

It's not like were having to spend money on credits to unlock weapons faster lol

[analog stirrup]

BF has never had been a hero shooter with battle passes before until now.

[quartz furnace]

or just had heros like they did in bfv, where they were just special skins for the classes

[arctic grove]

[grave prism]

you have been able to do that since battlefield 3

[low solar]

Just because the maps are huge doesn’t make it a sandbox lol maybe look the definition up again because we have no freedom of creativity. Closes we have is portal which is just a creation club on the side. And the infantry is lacking considering most maps don’t have a lot of different areas. It’s very bland and almost no options to pick with environment you want to fight

[daring wren]

The global culture has changed since the previous battlefields. The smallest group always seems to have the loudest opinion. I haven't felt any mtx forced upon me yet, unlike the other popular shooters that give pay to win weapons builds and all that.

[thorny jasper]

when the Portal servers will be full ? i can't wait man

[arctic grove]

play breakthrough 😎

[fossil trench]

BF had lootboxes in previous games. But cosmetic specialist skins? That’s taking it too far 🤣

[tame cobalt]

Yeah I'm def aware of this. Doesn't really change my outlook though. Every season will bring big improvements and additions

[arctic grove]

@grave prism what premium? that was a one-time buy for BF3 and BF4 and it was 100% worth it

[quartz furnace]

80% of the players from launch have stopped playing, it's not he minority

[grave prism]

no you can literally buy shortcuts and unlock all weapons and gadgets

[arctic grove]

lackluster maps arent a thing of bf2042 its been a thing since bfv
conquest are so bland in these two games i think breakthrough is the main game mode right now

oh yeah that part forgot about that

[wide shore]

Remember online passes? How about paying to get access to guns? You guys remember the S classes from BC2 that were $5 a piece for a weapon skin and dark character clothing? Remember when you could just pay money to unlock everything at rank 1? How about the ENTIRE MTX shop in BFV?

Everyone has selective memory.

[white dagger]

I sometimes find people with levels like S012 or something like that. What even is this?

[low solar]

And even breakthrough is bland .

[fossil trench]

.

[daring wren]

Yeah but the mtx wasn't thrown in my face, first time I'm hearing about the unlock everything mtx, which isn't new for battlefield.

[grave prism]

YASSSS BESTIE GET THEY AZZES 👏

[arctic grove]

you must be a crack head if you think breakthrough isnt chaotic

[thorny jasper]

why there is no Portal servers i want to try another guns man ?

[wide shore]

If that’s the case, then no battlefield game can say it has sandbox elements. Because this game has more opportunity for creativity.

[arctic grove]

Portal ^

[fossil trench]

Lol why would you buy shortcuts anyway

[white dagger]

What kind of level is it?

[fossil trench]

Just play the game

[analog stirrup]

Whales come in all sizes

[arctic grove]

Once you get past lvl 99 you move onto S ranks and I think theres 999 S ranks

[tame cobalt]

Probably don't need to mention the fact that everyone getting all dlc content free is bloody amazing and if you don't like skins you can legit just ignore it.

[arctic grove]

MTX is just the meta nowdays
BF is just following to survive

back in 2013 we had DLCs and priced skins with BF4 Halo Bo2/Ghost and other AAA games

[grave prism]

if ea make shortcut for weapon attachments in this game and it like $8 i will easily buy it

[hidden sand]

That's simplifying the standards each BF game has made to its style greatly tho. We've moved past it just being those things. There are things you expect to be present in a BF, lots of things, and a huge chunck of them are either missing or severely downgraded in this one.

[raven falcon]

@royal flax

[royal flax]

What

[quartz furnace]

It's just really sad that every BF game since BC2 has had less of the map that could be destroyed, even if BF3/BF4 had levolution that was a scripted thing and not really the same

[arctic grove]

Im pretty sure you don't unlock anything else after lvl 99. S ranks are just bragging rights

[white dagger]

Interesting. Thanks for the answer :))

[wide shore]

“BF is a hero shooter!” Cool. Maybe instead of crying about it you just don’t play the game at all. Because clearly you don’t like it, and you’re not gonna like it ever.

[arctic grove]

Road to S999 👀

[low solar]

You play BF3 or BF4? You can reshape and demolish every building. And the buildings were all accessible inside with unique rooms like hallways, offices, bedrooms, bathrooms, all sorts of actual detail and landscape you’d get in a city or urban environment.

[arctic grove]

what makes a game a hero shooter though @wide shore @hidden sand

[low solar]

You’re crying about people crying. You don’t see that as infinitely worse?

[quartz furnace]

80% of people have already stopped, so clearly this direction for the game is unpopular

[grave prism]

sandbox is when building fall over 🧠 🪱

[hidden sand]

No offense but you're doing the same thing right now lol.

[low solar]

Not at all what I said

[arctic grove]

lol accurate name
thats different though
joking about people who cry about everything isnt the same as crying to an level where you just whine more than play the game

[analog stirrup]

I just gave that kid a dose of reality and he's really mad right now. Just ignore him

[low solar]

Stupid people try to over simplify to make a point tho so go off man

[hidden sand]

Don't drag me into it. I'm not interested in choosing sides.

[grave prism]

Not gonna be active on Discord tonight. I'm meeting a girl (a real one) in half an hour (wouldn't expect a lot of you to understand anyway) so please don't DM me asking me where I am (im with the girl, ok) you'll most likely get aired because ill be with the girl (again I don't expect you to understand) shes actually really interested in me and its not a situation i can pass up for some meaningless Discord degenerates (because ill be meeting a girl, not that you really are going to understand) this is my life now. Meeting women and not wasting my precious time online, I have to move on from such simple things and branch out (you wouldn't understand)

[low solar]

Because they’re clearly joking lmao you must have taken what I said personally seeing as I wasn’t talking to you 😂

[raven falcon]

all of you stop crying lol?

[low solar]

Okay 😦

[arctic grove]

you are in a public discord in a public channel with maybe 10k people or something lol

[lethal tangle]

[proper river]

The salt level is abnormally low

[arctic grove]

Lol spoken words of a true human

[proper river]

Which is unfortunate

[arctic grove]

i think we need more females in battlefield

[analog stirrup]

Agreed. I think we need more trans-mecha warriors in battlefield

[grave prism]

there better never be a french character in this game

[wide shore]

Fundamentally BF is a large vehicle and infantry combination on big maps and large player counts & destruction.

All of that is still present. I didn’t say that it was/wasn’t missing some “legacy” features. Because it definitely is. But it fundamentally is still Battlefield. People can’t just move the goalposts to change what the game is just because they don’t like it.

[arctic grove]

Instant defeat

[daring wren]

80% of ppl stopped playing? Idk how accurate that is as of today but I'm still having a blast in portal along with other servers that always maintain 128 players

[tame cobalt]

Sundance is french brah 🤨

[grave prism]

oh idc about winning they are just so annoying

[arctic grove]

just realized in 2042 england is a failed fallen state
live feels better now

[grave prism]

oh that makes sense why sundace so annoying.

[raven falcon]

gun game master is fun

[tame cobalt]

[arctic grove]

just played bf1 and wow is 2042 the biggest downgrade of all time

[analog stirrup]

she's """french""" but not French.

[wide shore]

Nothing about this implies the game is any more or any less of a sandbox. Also, BF4 destruction is super lacking. But, hey, go off I guess.

[arctic grove]

I only use Sundance when I play as a human airstrike

[low solar]

I think anyone who says “females” instead of women is a bit weird

[analog stirrup]

did they nerf sundance ult yet?

[arctic grove]

@wide shore true enlightened chads play bad company 2 anyways

[lethal tangle]

Unfortunately I wish everyone who complains about this game would do that. Maybe then EA wouldn't be so tone deaf. They're very confused when people buy the game but hate on it. The reviews are trash but the sales are good and which one do you think ea will favour more? 100$ wish everyone who complains just didn't own the game so the sales will be shit

[viral harbor]

once dice makes anime comestics for specialist ill post my ballscak on here

[quartz furnace]

So wtf is the difference between the various compensators for guns in the game? they all have the same stat changes so

[arctic grove]

BF3/4 we're also great

[quartz furnace]

Anime cosmetics would be fucking amazing

[raven falcon]

fuck off

[hidden sand]

Again though, it's more nuanced now because of the standards DICE have created throughout the years. People don't expect the bare minimum of what makes BF, BF, they expect improvements ontop of the ones that have already been made.

That's not to say you can't enjoy the game for what it is, but idk why you'd be surprised at people being upset over how different this one is in comparison to past games.

[arctic grove]

girls become women when they meet a man
female includes both of them 😎

[wide shore]

Good. That’s how you properly show discontent.

[arctic grove]

No the fuck they wouldn't 😂

[quartz furnace]

[arctic grove]

@quartz furnace agreed and fortnite dances i wanna hit the quan on 2042

[viral harbor]

yea anime gotta be one of my favourite things to commit genocid on

[quartz furnace]

yeah I think part of the problem with this game is that they didn't just full on embrace the fortnite model, the serious intro scene fucked everything up

[arctic grove]

need a big tiddy goth girl skin

[slow mulch]

anyone elses gun sorta locking up and not firing?

[analog stirrup]

most the guns do this from time to time

[quartz furnace]

If the opening cinematic was someone flossing over dead bodies then I think people would have liked the game more :)

[fossil trench]

I can’t wait for Fortnite dances

[arctic grove]

Is it bad that I have a class for demolition

[slow mulch]

never used too, only started really today

[arctic grove]

@quartz furnace the biggest of facts 100% agree with you my dood they seriously gotta tone down the seriousness in 2042. look at the success of fortnite. if they dont start doing marvel and hello kitty collabs 2042 will fail mark my words. need more dances, more camos (anime preferably), and faster mobility

[wide shore]

I’m not upset that people don’t like the game. I’m annoyed by people making baseless statements that just aren’t true, in order to justify why they think the game stinks. They can just say they don’t like it, they don’t have to make up ridiculous lies in order to make their opinion seem more valid.

[quartz furnace]

[arctic grove]

It's still an ass game

[quartz furnace]

350m users? or people that bought the game initially based on false pretenses?

[arctic grove]

@arctic grove lol you're funny my DOOD

they should add this and change name to battlefield ragnarok and we all should be naked norseman on dragons with anime cometics on it

fortnite is a game for kids. it's ok to not like a game for kids. why don't you get upset about roblox too?

someone made a petition for 2042 to get mnk support and it got over 11k signatures, so i imagine dice are highly aware we want it...

All hero shooters suffer from this.

[round eagle]

[viral harbor]

why does it even need specialists

[round eagle]

yeah i have.

[lethal tangle]

Which is why once the next battlefield game comes out this one will be dead 100%. Why would they hire a team to balance an old game that isn't making them anymore money.

[analog stirrup]

sell cosmetics. the game was made for whales, not people that play battlefield games

[brittle kettle]

You have to keep his shield up but yeah, I'm not sure the exact requirements but I've been able to recreate it sometimes

[lethal tangle]

Because it's been trendy. The battlefield formula has worked since 2001 where as this hero shit only works because they sell skins therefore so it worth to continue to hire people to fix the game because it makes them money.

[arctic grove]

@round eagle thanks for responding. Did you do it true EA ID in EA account ?? And it works ?

[lethal tangle]

Battlefield is gonna have to sell some serious skins to make it worth having a team balancing this game constantly if It wants to outlast bf4 which is going on what, 9 years?

[round eagle]

did it was orgins

[analog stirrup]

There's a few whales in this channel that are well prepared to drop thousands on skins right now if they could

[lethal tangle]

These people are also gonna be the first to ditch this game when another battlefield comes out, abandoning thousands of dollars of cosmetics on a game... so silly but ea sees potential to capitalize on that.

[arctic grove]

@round eagle but its not origin send you true settings to EA Account to change name ?

[round eagle]

it is origins.................................... im on pc thats how i changed my bf2042 name,. you cant tell me cause i did it

[analog stirrup]

Older games and indie games are all that's left

[idle crater]

origin

[lethal tangle]

I think you can change your bf name by simply changing your steam name

[arctic grove]

I have it on ORIGIN

[lethal tangle]

Idk im sure there's developers out there who are on our side. I feel embark studios has a good foundation.

[round eagle]

than change your origins name......

[loud flower]

How tf am I getting nightbird strafed to death multiple times per game and then I do it over a huge group of targets and don't get a single kill

Change your origin name. Just Google how to change your origin name

I know, I honestly saw this coming since bf1 like I've said before. Bf1 added chat filter and added in these silly classes for tanks and pilots. Idk, I thought it was silly and saw it as a decline and an approach to try and widen the audience.

The extreme chat filter on bfv, the silly skins and the hard-core political correctness solidified that. Yet I was still somehow surprised with 2042. I knew it would go another step in the wrong direction but not like this...

[lethal tangle]

I was pumped over the destruction on the reveal trailer. Plus it launched smooth.

[grave prism]

"oh no they changed the game from the last one this is DOGSHIT and wont survive" 💀

[lethal tangle]

I was disappointed wirh medic class having an lmg but that was super minor

[idle crater]

yall have a weird obsession with destruction

[lethal tangle]

I viewed it as a step forward in game designing and art

Like when cod 4 came out and you could shoot through thin steel I was pumped.

[iron blade]

Well technically bf1 is the last bf game made by the old dev team. Most of the old dice dev team left after Bf1 and Bfv

[lethal tangle]

Also we're allowed to voice our opinion. Just like how some real classic fans of eminem don't like his new music.

[idle crater]

eminem specialist confirmed

[iron blade]

Opinions against the game? Nah nah we dont do that here

[grave prism]

did anybody say you couldnt lmao

[lethal tangle]

Then what was the point of this may I ask? Pure toxicity? Or trying to invalidate our right? I'm confused

[foggy mortar]

did they nerf svk rate of fire

[lethal tangle]

I don't bash people who like the game. You're losing credibility by throwing insults and acting out.

[grave prism]

cause it is funny that battlefield players say this after every single game

[iron blade]

Bro there is like no destruction in this game, other than that village in hourglass. You can barely truely destroy anything

[idle crater]

bs opinion, discarded

[round eagle]

dm7 is broken

[lethal tangle]

So toxicity, okay. And I'm sorry we're the toxic ones? Eye for an eye makes the world blind

[grave prism]

LMAO christ its a fkin discord server its not parliament

[iron blade]

Like BF4 had skyscrapers collapsing 8 years ago, and a next gen title can barely have a tiny home destroyed

[idle crater]

one skyscraper

[iron blade]

2042 doesnt even have 1 soooooo

[grave prism]

that made the map worse after it fell

[lethal tangle]

Perhaps toxicity would be at all time low and people could actually get along and devs wouldn't disengage with direct conversations so much if people didn't act like apes with a super inflated ego behind a keyboard.

[proven ermine]

The maps are getting so boring now

[grave prism]

saw this response in here the other week, gonna use it right now just gotta find it give me a minute

[lethal tangle]

Sure :)

[grave prism]

I got muted twice on here. But it's OK that you're obsessed with me for wrecking you multiple times in debates.

[scenic stump]

Anyone elses loadouts keep vanishing?

[proper river]

yes

[lethal tangle]

Lol. The fact you got muted shows you can't debate like a civil person at at tho.

[grave prism]

yes they didnt fix that bug yet

[scenic stump]

Every 3 games i have to remake my loadout

[grave prism]

oh that was not me who got muted it was some unhinged bloke imfact you could probably search it

[lethal tangle]

I've had direct debates with mods and got warned in my dms by people and yet here I am. I just don't act out and insult somehow thinking itll persuad the other side.

[iron blade]

Along with dams collapsing, mass flooding, an entire half of a hotel crumbling, etc that change the map. There is NOTHING in 2042 other than a fucking tiny crane falling off a building and doing nothing

[grave prism]

LMAO he muted again

[light cradle]

Holy crap DICE obliterated the wildcat's 57mm cannon

[jovial minnow]

Hardline vibes

[void lintel]

I wish there was more customization

[grave prism]

hardline was great, it was real nice there were less rpgs

[lethal tangle]

I mean hardline is on life support. Would've been dead years ago if rented servers wasn't preserving it. Too bad newer battlefields don't have rented server to keep them alive.

[iron blade]

Well at least it made the map interesting and changed the flow of it. With 2042 maps, the maps are so god damn bland and flat. The rocket exploding is cool, but it doesnt do anything to the map! Wouldnt it be cool to have that one skyscraper objective on Kaleidoscope collapse and become a ground objective?

[still island]

Did they Nerd the Marksman Rifles?

[round eagle]

host your own servers... in portal

[lethal tangle]

I did enjoy hardline though. Back then battlefield somehow knew how to seemingly go out of their identity yet STILL have their identity it was impressive. Battlefield hardline and battlefield heroes both felt very untraditional but traditional at the same time.

[lethal tangle]

Wait what?!?! You can actually rent servers from dice to have a permanent server up?

[iron blade]

Dont be sad, thats just how it works out sometimes

[ripe hedge]

Yes i nerd them a lot

[iron blade]

No i dont think so

[lethal tangle]

So then I rest my case still. Portal doesn't offer what I'm.talking about @round eagle

[inner sedge]

Is anyone else having issues with doing keybinds?

Yesterday I restarted my game and it literally restarted my entire game and killed my game

Now I cant change any keybinds

[iron blade]

Alex tell everyone at the office to fix last gen input lag and hit reg and add a futuristic kolibri!!!

[round eagle]

well you get what you get dice says

[lethal tangle]

Once hackers find a way to cheat in this game we're purely relying on dice to scramble a fix. At least in rented servers we had the admins in private servers manually protecting the player base from hackers

[arctic grove]

As morters as well!

[grave prism]

the only levolution in battlefield 4 that i can recall making the map better than it was is the big boat on the island map and the factory with the big chimney stack, the rest of them made the maps worse to play on

[arctic grove]

Add mortars as well

[iron blade]

I have to give dice some props tho, they did fix most of the issues fairly quickly, even though it didnt affect last gen

[mental delta]

Nerd ?

[round eagle]

think so

[languid bramble]

why I got every day diff fps .. one day is 90fps and the next day is 70 , like .. wtf?

[mental delta]

?

[grave prism]

me go now i gotta get 10 more revives

[lethal tangle]

Levolution is pure opinion. I enjoy the skyscraper being used but it gives amazing cover for transport helicopter with all the dust in the air on Shanghai after. Plus the sky box is still just as long so you can hide really well and have your team spawn on you to capture points.

[round eagle]

cant read?

[mental delta]

Think so

[idle crater]

as someone that played bf4 right up until bf2042 launch day, seeing everyone on bf4 begging people NOT TO take down the tower in shanghai and remembering how shit flood zone is when its flood.. and then people here act like a game needs destruction and its unplayable without it.. shits absurd

[pine lily]

anyone else not able to get into a game

[iron blade]

I never said they were good, it just changed the maps and did something kinda neat and cool. I just dont see why they cant do anything like that with 2042. Remember the footage of the building collapsing that dropped back in like 2020 ish? What happened to that? Wheres that in 2042?

[pine lily]

feels like the game world war 3 rn lol

[dense terrace]

bc2 best destruction uganda (also in the whole franchise)

[scenic stump]

Only way is to crossplay right now

[arctic grove]

arc raiders> battlefield

[pine lily]

Ive always had crossplay on, im a pc player

[lethal tangle]

The only people who didn't want the tower downed was people camping the roof like Kaleidescope on breakthrough on launch day. Except dice thought it would be more epic to bring the whole bloody thing down if they can't get up via air drop or elevators. Modern dice would just remove the skyscraper instead.

[mental delta]

I would rather say bfv

[woven acorn]

breakthrough is the only way to play bf2042 imo

[iron blade]

Well destruction is kinda a staple of the bf franchise, and its kinda odd when its barely there in the game

[languid bramble]

thats gonna be a dlc map so u need to pay HAHAHAH

[iron blade]

Good point

[idle crater]

uh no literally everyone hates the tower being destroyed and flood zone being flooded

[dense terrace]

flood yeh tower? fugg dat tower

[lethal tangle]

You say everybody but there's literally me and other people blowing the tower down because we can't get to the roof. Was a great solution.

[round eagle]

games broken af

[mental delta]

Bf2042 content is all free, isn't it

[proper river]

Source?

[arctic grove]

yes

[craggy marten]

Yo, I found a video with some dude straight up showing off his cheats in 2042, can someone manage to deal with this guy?

https://youtu.be/ej2RewY3d4A

[round eagle]

EA

[woven acorn]

i never camped it but still wanted it to stay up. it was cool heading up there and having a fire fight and then jumping off if things got too hot

[idle crater]

well it made everyone lag and helis farmed even harder so way to go

[mental delta]

Some arguments would be enjoyable

[languid bramble]

its ea after all I woudnt be surprised...but anyways...that sand map got like 20 skyscraper and none of them cant be destroyed...thats kinda sad

[lethal tangle]

As for the floods it was a great combat to make the LAV less of a nuisance and I loved the rhib boats so not everyone agrees with you my dude

[still island]

Nerf. Obviously a typo. Im sure you’re smart enough to know what I meant

[round eagle]

dont start crabs

[idle crater]

flood zone being great when its flood lmfao

[still island]

I lose a fight between an LMG and marksman rifle from a decent distance

[mental delta]

I paid 20€ for year 1 pass, I hope I won't get deceived

[thorny jasper]

bf 2042 nvidia reflex what is the best option i tried with on less fps better visuals ?

[proper river]

This game definitely has issues with hacking

[lethal tangle]

The tower also made it so whoever holds the tower just holds it and thats it. Sure they got a tower but every other objective is taken. Simple solution, blow up your own damn tower so your team captures shit. Idk I saw levolution as a solution to issues.

[iron blade]

Having the tower up on shanghi was just a treat for stupid ass helicopter campers

[woven acorn]

you paid for the battle pass I believe. all cosmetic

[languid bramble]

"Today we have concept art for some Battlefield 2042 coming directly from DICE concept artist Jakub Kowalczyk that shows that DICE clearly thought about adding more natural disasters to the game but it looks like they run out of time or were held back by the last-gen consoles."

[arctic grove]

all map all dlc will be free cause of the pass.

i rather they bring back paid dlc, you get more for your money

[mental delta]

Kid gun

[craggy marten]

Yup, as seen here by this degenerate loser with hacks. https://youtu.be/ej2RewY3d4A

[lethal tangle]

I don't lag when it falls, and the tower is better for farming heli kills since you have like 30 people condensed in one spot

[iron blade]

It was hella hard to cap the tower

[woven acorn]

no, maps and guns will be free i believe

[idle crater]

the tower is absolutely better for helis when its down because you have thermal and nobody sees shit but ok

[iron blade]

All that i had was maybe a small framedrop, it barely did anything really

[mental delta]

Tbh I just brought it thinking I would get mil-sim cosmetics, I will likely not

[lethal tangle]

But when the towers up all you gotta do is fly above spawn and have your attack chopper gunner gave IR sights and just blast everyone where they can't even stinger you.

[mental delta]

Yeah I also think it would be a good idea

[woven acorn]

lol i like how willing you are to throw away $20 without even knowing what you're getting

[idle crater]

i refuse to argue over this ill just say i have about 5k hours in shanghai alone and i main helis

[languid bramble]

they will bring destruction over some time ... they had to put the game like couple of months earlier and now they need to fix it

[mental delta]

Yes and the destruction on basic buildings or houses is bad af too

[amber kelp]

The tower was a power position, allowing people to parachute down to D and B quite easily. This meant that not only was it fun to fight over, but rewarding for the team that takes it.
Then it gets destroyed and the verticality of the map is gone

[iron blade]

ew

[idle crater]

shoonghai best map

[lethal tangle]

Thats okay we can agree to disagree man i ain't toxic. I however haven't stopped playing bf4 since launch of 2042. I'm still on bf4 and have been throughout all of bf1 and bfv

[languid bramble]

and tbh ... they need to optimizate game before adding any destruction ... like 80% players playin on 1050ti

[woven acorn]

yeah definitely a solution, i just preferred it when it stayed up, it was more fun. And you're right, theres usually always 1 objective in the middle of bf maps like that where if you hold it you lose the rest. I like to see it as a diversion and just hope the enemy takes the bait instead of us

[arctic grove]

back then $20 got you 5 new maps and a few guns. now it gets you 1 gun and zero maps

(cod)

[mental delta]

I just wanted to get gold edition and pre-release content also + I do whatever I want with my money lol

[iron blade]

Nuuuuuuuu fortnite bester BF and GTA game 😎😎😎

[idle crater]

modmialed.

[iron blade]

Yay

[round eagle]

mario kart over all

[lethal tangle]

K I'm just gonna come clean and say I prefer the skyscraper to be up in Shanghai too, I'm just trying to look at the positives here since humans tend to focus on what negatively affects only them.

[woven acorn]

of course you can, its just earlier you said you hope you aren't being decieved by year 1 pass, which is why im surprised you threw $20 at it without knowing what it included

[dire sapphire]

Movement was on a different level this match

[mental delta]

It was even only 15 here and it was great, that's also why I don't play cod there is no content

[idle crater]

lmfao and i prefer the skyscraper down

[lethal tangle]

Lmao we were arguing for points that we both don't actually side with 😂😂😂

[idle crater]

i just srsly dont get the hard urge to have bf4 like destruction like, thats not what they should be focusing on rn

[woven acorn]

so you're that person i always fire a mag into and hit once lmao

[lethal tangle]

At least we're trying to be open minded right?

[round eagle]

guess people are still invisible?

[dire sapphire]

Possibly

[idle crater]

fr thats hilarious

[amber kelp]

I do whatever I want with my money
Nobody ever says that you cant. But that doesnt mean its a good idea

[round crow]

Any squads?

[iron blade]

Well at least have BF2042 have destructive capabilities on par with BFV

[mental delta]

I knew it would be cosmetics and additional content other than maps or guns which will be free, but I think as I paid 20€ for that, it would be fair that I get content which I enjoy a minimum

[arctic grove]

its just not cod tho. same can be said about all dlc. you just got way more content for your money then you do today. its sad and its to be blamed on those who buy battlepasses etc

[round eagle]

!!lfg

[mental delta]

Lol I didn't say everything I do with my money was right

[amber kelp]

well at least youre honest

[languid bramble]

there is no destruction cuz they had to make game playable for ps4 and xbox360 ... with more destruction those consoles would die ingame hahaha

[woven acorn]

bring back old school paid dlc!

[lethal tangle]

Honestly goes to show that we have open minds though. I agree the lack of destruction isn't a major deal breaker for me in 2042. I've said before that for me it's the removal of classes, no all chat and rented servers.

[idle crater]

personally i was pretty positively surprised to see how many cover stuff like buildings etc you can puncture and destroy (yet not collapse) seeing how everyone was going on about the game has no destruction and stuff

[dire sapphire]

It's weird that there is no basic server browser for all the modes. That's what got me into Battlefield, being able to pick another player's server based on their rules and settings

[idle crater]

its just that they are already post launch and there are other urgent stuff to take care of before EA starts drilling them to sell mtx

[dire sapphire]

Yeah there's portal, but it's not the same experience I had with BF3's server browser

[mental delta]

Of course. There's still a risk I wasted 20€ for bad content cosmetics but, as they don't announce the future content before releasing it, I was not able to say if it would be worth it, I just bet on it to be good

[lethal tangle]

Just realized that they plan on introducing floods in this game supposedly. So prepare for flood zone 2.0

[dense terrace]

flood the desert

it would make sense in this game. trust me

[idle crater]

it probably wouldnt be AoW tho? cant imagine that many air vehicles in it all crammed together?!

[pure mulch]

You guys that bought the game in USD and Euros don't know how lucky you are.

[arctic grove]

Why?

[pure mulch]

The price in BRL was a nightmare.

[lethal tangle]

100% I agree the bugs and performance issues are more important, at least for those who own the game. I've got the trial and played the alpha and beta and don't plan on getting the game until my issues are fixed though. Might get it if it's really really cheap or from an alternative store idk

[round eagle]

game sucks ass

[mental delta]

Yes that's true for major part of nowadays game but I don't think I'll blame it entirely on people who buy battle passes as now, that's the only opportunity to get more content so we have to deal with it as we can unfortunately

[arctic grove]

first world master race

[arctic grove]

How much was it?

[pure mulch]

EA don't do good stuff like Steam.

250BRL

[languid bramble]

atm we are game testers :)(

[lethal tangle]

Hahaha but for aow and the flood I've got no idea, only time will tell. But they seemed to forgot the epic exploit of c4s on Mavs in bf3 so I feel like they forgot about flood zone too

[pure mulch]

250BRL for a PC game, this is outrageous. PC should never pay so much for games because we already need to buy better hardware to even run the games.

[marble orchid]

I wonder how people are going to rate bethesda's new game

[mental delta]

Portal server browser is a bit trash to me but I can be wrong

[round eagle]

sounds like a pc problem not everyones

[dire sapphire]

It is trash

[arctic grove]

if people didnt buy microtracations and battlepasses the only way they could make money would be through paid dlc. it is entirely those kinds of peoples fault

[idle crater]

tbh i have 0 issues with performance but im on a decent rig, i think theres just a massive amount of QoL issues that need to be addressed urgently like my name here, some deploy screen features that existed in bf4 etc

[pure mulch]

Yes and No.

[languid bramble]

I hope u understand that playin a pc game is an expensive sport... or u can or u cant .. Im sorry thats the world today 😦

[round eagle]

mhmm yes

[pure mulch]

Yeah and that's why people from Brazil pirate every game they can. xD

[languid bramble]

thats how half of the world works ... miners put prices on another level ... so for gaming tbh right now ps and xbox are the best thing to do

[idle crater]

i just converted this to my country's currency and dude you have it easy.. i would pay the equivalent of 400 BRL

[pure mulch]

Not for indie games, there's an unspoken rule that you do not pirate indie games.

[marble orchid]

wages are different all around the world

[lethal tangle]

Ah, we honestly all have our own view of what's priority to be fixed. But if they don't tackle at least one of my issues they won't see my money. And that's okay and I know I'm only one person and some may say "okay bye felicia" or something because I refuse to buy the game. But i strongly believe in wallet voting and if more people did it would be revolutionary in the gaming industry since everyone is complaining of broken shit yet continuing to buy it...

[idle crater]

preach. also stop preordering stuff 😤

[lethal tangle]

^^^

[round eagle]

no

[pure mulch]

That's the problem man, we shouldn't pay this prices. The most expensive PC game should stop at 200BRL, more than this for the Standard version is full disrespect with the players.

[marble orchid]

I mean, there's no point in not preordering if you're going to buy it day one anyway, or if you know what you're buying

[idle crater]

true dude. i bought it for 50$ from someone that won a giveaway so i aint salty

[lethal tangle]

Like dude could you imagine if every person in this discord and subreddit (even if they still like the game but disagree with some changes) just held back a week after launch to not buy the game and still flocked discord and subreddit like they're doing.

[iron blade]

Hell yeah, the first game I preordered was SWBF2, the last game I preordered was SWBF2

[pure mulch]

I tought this Discord would have a suggestion channel, looks like i was wrong. And that's why i love Synthetik Devs so much. ❤️

[lethal tangle]

Like you know how wallstreetbets is trying to make changes in the stock market with their wallet? We need to band together as gamers and do this to the gaming industry.

[arctic grove]

Ok

[iron blade]

I doubt that a multimillion dollar game franchise would have a suggestion channel

[round eagle]

DM7 is broken af

[pure mulch]

But you know they need it, right!?

[arctic grove]

Make a suggestion on their website.

[languid bramble]

yo .. why did my fps drop from 90 to 70 in like less then a week..mostly after last update

[lethal tangle]

Some mod came in here and dropped the suggestion link earlier

[round eagle]

cause games trash

[iron blade]

Duh, but it would be hella hard to tell what ppl want since so many would ask for shit, along with ppl shit talkin the game in the suggestion tab

[arctic grove]

@arctic grove typical docile coper response

[still island]

Oh, nice. Thanks for the info. 🙂

@arctic grove and copers deserve to get ripped off so im glad its working out the way it is :^)

[drowsy oar]

is it good?

[arctic grove]

i hope they make next BF $100 base price

[lethal tangle]

Sorry I can't help much beyond that. It was maybe an hour ago. Maybe message modmail and ask for the link

[marble orchid]

You're a bit late to complain about commander mode being gone

[arctic grove]

Fun Fact: I actually don't like 2042. Stop assuming shit.

[pure mulch]

Yeah, it sucks BUT i do not miss shitty ADMs than ban you for every single thing they like. Or if you kill them when they're in their Littlebirds.

[drowsy oar]

bro you can trow grenades instantly if you go on settings

[pure mulch]

I know but it would become even better in this one, because of the map size and player count.

It makes no sense for me that they didn't gave it a shot.

[marble orchid]

If they made it like battlefield 4, it wouldn't be good at all

[lethal tangle]

I never understood that complaint. Because the servers with shitty admins would scare literally everyone away and their server would die. Plus, the pros outweigh the cons. Shall I list what I think are the pros and you can list the cons? I'd seriously like someone try n convince me rented servers are bad.

[arctic grove]

@arctic grove

@arctic grove wat

[arctic grove]

whats good homeslice

@arctic grove nothing much depressed that my favorite franchise ate shit

[idle crater]

lol

[arctic grove]

Games can't eat shit.

@arctic grove this one somehow manages to eat shit

[pure mulch]

I would be happy with at least a Server Browser INSIDE THE GAME, because using Battlelog was a shit experience. I also kinda wanted Clans with custom images back.

[arctic grove]

name another company that sold harder than DICE

[pure mulch]

hahaahah

Did any of you guys played Generation Zero ?

[harsh furnace]

damn u guys still crying aftr month

[pure mulch]

Because ARC Raiders looks fucking awesome and the game was made by EA refugees.

[arctic grove]

@harsh furnace no more tears to shed my guy only sheer pain and disappointment

[pure mulch]

This.

[arctic grove]

they took probably the most perfected FPS of all time and ruined it singlehandedly

how can I state positive things when there is literally nothing positive to say about this game

[idle crater]

its fun

[floral whale]

My game wont boot at all due to EAC putting out a Cant start game error. I tried repairing it, verifying files and reinstalling EAC, does anyone know how to fix it?

[arctic grove]

"iTz fUn" no it aint quit cappin

[idle crater]

i mean its fun to me and i keep playing it

[arctic grove]

@idle crater lies and deceit

[idle crater]

[lethal tangle]

Okay, rented servers let's go

Common complaints

-lack of community. You ever join a bf4 server and greet everyone and all these familiar names that were just on the night before show up, green, blue and RED names all saying like "hey dude! How'd your exam go?" It was great. Plus the map voting felt like a democratic community, everyone's word meant something

Hackers - it's common sense that people moderating their own servers are the final defense wall for hackers. The game will get cracked eventually and if that happens and there's no rented servers I doubt dice will send a team to make a patch for a 10 year old game. (Saying for the future of this game)

People are worried it'll be abandoned like bfv or other titles - unfortunately you can't play battlefield heroes because there's no rented servers. They also pulled the public servers from BF4/ BF3 ages ago. The game is literally still going solely on rented servers

The xp farms - they put a halt to xp on portal because of the farming. All they had to do was release a statement and update the terms and conditions that xp farming will result in immediate shut down of their server with no refund. But no instead they ruined every other game mode in portal at once.

There was more but this is all I can think of atm

[idle crater]

to be fair all my bf4 friends hate it

[old mantle]

I don't get it

[arctic grove]

@lethal tangle lol on the xp farm thing even a little tweak like no xp from bots would've been enough to stop the xp lobbies

[lethal tangle]

Well it eventually turned into farming players and they stopped xp I thought

[lethal tangle]

Point out what you don't get and I can explain more

[lethal tangle]

Also bf4 has had a server browser IG since 2016. No more battlelog.

[orchid lark]

Agreed.

[pure mulch]

Yep.

[lethal tangle]

Can anyone nullify my points or point out any game breaking things of rented servers? I really want someone to change my mind, I'm willing to give it a shot.

[old mantle]

So it'll be done when there's more than that have been there or is it not yet been shown to be so?

[idle crater]

lack of community - stg i posted about this on reddit before the beta was out and i kept saying no dedicated servers will make for a soulless community of mindless idiots that never used a server browser and just click "play now"

hackers - 100%

xp bot farms - i cant see why its so outrageous to have both an offline and online rank. i dont mind weapon and vehicle unlocks with xo farms its just not fair for a player that got 5000 kills online with X to have the same badge someone that did it with bots

[lethal tangle]

I get that some admins can abuse power but those servers literally don't last. Hop on bf4 today and find a server like that because you won't.

[lethal tangle]

Tbh I think I misunderstood the xp farming issue since I never experience anything but joining and server and figured out IM the cattle.

[idle crater]

right now with bots the badges get to t3 and progression unlocks normally unless i didnt get something myself

[lethal tangle]

Man there was another brilliant point someone brought up about rentals and I wish i could remember.

@old mantle sorry dude I can't really understand what you're saying. But I think you're asking if they'll add it later and it hasn't been announced.

[lethal tangle]

I think they should have separate ranks for offline and online 100% i agree.

[idle crater]

like tekken

also give us heihachi specialist

[fiery solar]

the rock specialist

[lethal tangle]

Idk plus like bf4 is still making dice money by renting servers

Also would be nice with rented servers as you could favourite certain ones so you know that when you join that specific one it'll always be there and it'll likely have the same reoccurring players who like the content of that server. Plus a server could host events like every Friday night do something etc. Be like little communities and it'll be great.

[idle crater]

btw battlelog is still alive

[lethal tangle]

I still use battlelog to login to bf4. But just saying you CAN join via bf4.exe

Also you can't change your emblem or update your clan in battlelog so it's like partially dead

[amber kelp]

probably pales in comparison to the mtx money

[idle crater]

yes u can change ur emblem

[lethal tangle]

When have you tried last?

[idle crater]

wait ill try now

[round eagle]

getting 40 fps with pc on bf2042

[lethal tangle]

They could do both

@idle crater I'll bet you money it won't work. I literally tried and had to go to battle companion

[idle crater]

@lethal tangle nah fam it works just changed it

[lethal tangle]

It won't work ig I promise

[amber kelp]

yeah but they dont want the game to live longer than they support it. They want people to move onto the next game so they can spend money on skins there.

[idle crater]

i just tried it works no cap

[old mantle]

It's okay bro. Do you?

Trust me on this bro I've literally done this. It'll say it worked but it won't change if

[round eagle]

restart game?

[lethal tangle]

1000000%

@round eagle I tried that too. Literally turned into an hour ordeal. I'll explain what happened

I was in a clan who changed their emblem to something really really bad and I wanted it gone. I hit stop representing clan and it was STILL there, I couldn't get rid of it. finally I went on battle companion and hit stop representing clan there and suddenly I had the default emblem. I then had to go to battlelog and download my emblem, upload it to a emblem website and port that to battle companion. Trust me on this

[fiery solar]

my helicopter teleported to the ground and blew up first game in a week

[bold trout]

Because the game Is a broken disaster

[idle crater]

🤝

[proud glen]

🆗

[lethal tangle]

Bf4? Far from it. It's the decisions during bf1 that broke it tbh

[proud glen]

why is everyone complaining this game is so good and myfriends agree

[bold trout]

Why would I talk about bf4 in a 2042 server

[proud glen]

your expectations are way too high your fault deal with it

[amber kelp]

b8

[old mantle]

Apparently they're supporting the game for 6 years

[lethal tangle]

Lol you have no idea what you replied to then

[bold trout]

Hahahahahaha

[amber kelp]

they said the same thing about swbf2
Pretty sure they already confirmed a bf game in 2023

[lethal tangle]

Doubt it but time will tell

[bold trout]

This one might work by then

[old mantle]

Depends if they can make continuous money from it for that long

[lethal tangle]

Literally make a post about battlefield 4 and then gets confused

[mental delta]

Lol wtf ? When did they say that ? BFV only got supported for like 1.5 years or less I think

[bold trout]

Bait

[round eagle]

40-50 fps normal? 1660ti

[lethal tangle]

Lmao 😂

[old mantle]

That was WW2 though

[amber kelp]

I think the big thing stopping this game from being long term is the player retention. EA may find it more profitable to just publish a new game than work on building this one

[lethal tangle]

But yeah, battlelog is broken. Only good for stats and joining servers that's it. Rest of it is either IG or on battle companion

[mental delta]

But what is the link ?

[idle crater]

i miss when it was fully functional and platoons had facebook tier shitposting on eachother's walls they took so much from us by ending battlelog support..

[bold trout]

Yeah player retention is already on its backside the games a mess and people are sick of the it will be good in a year narrative

[lethal tangle]

The fact that they removed rented servers goes to show this game won't last nearly as long as it's predeccesors.

@idle crater dude I know! Battlelog was a tad annoying but it was very supportive for the community.

[mental delta]

That's not because it's ww2 that he should (and could) have not get supported for more than 1.5 years, and besides bfv should have got supported a way more time but hadn't because they prefered working on 2042

[lethal tangle]

I miss showing off all the battlefield games I owned on my battlelog bf3 profile

[amber kelp]

Especially since when fans say "The game is good now" it usually just means that the company stopped making mind bogglingly bad decisions and rarely indicates that the game is actually good.
Destiny, SWBF2, and BFV never became good for example

[mental delta]

I don't give more than 2 years to it, after that it's obviously dead and I guess the next one will be a way worse than this one

[idle crater]

bruh i miss being at awe that my custom emblem actually appears on my uniform and vehicles

[bold trout]

Destiny worked though. Its content stream was weak and the annual pass to keep playing is a rip off

[lethal tangle]

Im very curious to see how this game will end up. The fact that there's no rental servers ensures it won't last forever. But the fact thay there's heros which require constant tweaking like in overwatch require it to never be abandoned. Idk

[amber kelp]

Unironically, making the specialists more specialized could fix the problems with the system, cause at that point its just a large class system

[lethal tangle]

And on top of your parachute! Jumping off damanva peak and seeing all the emblems below was sick.

Battlefield hardline you could spray paint your emblem too

[bold trout]

It's ea. If it stops making money they will stop wasting resources on it

[idle crater]

we have been robbed of so much cool shit man

[old mantle]

Yeah

[lethal tangle]

Exactly, so 2042 will be available offline only with broken specialists in 10 years.

[amber kelp]

They will just leave it in whatever imbalanced state its in when they move on to the next bf game

[lethal tangle]

Exactly! Like what I said above ^^^

[bold trout]

Star wars only got fixed because Disney and star wars license were livid with them. They won't be bothered about sorting out this game if no ones buying skins or stuff

[mental delta]

Yeah but to me the 2042 launch looks like the bfv's one, a really bad image which is given at launch and I don't think they will try to revive to game and to pull it out of the bad situation he's in

[mental delta]

Da

[lethal tangle]

So true. Can't wait for it to be so far behind in the rear view mirror like bf3 is thay the community can just take over it and make it better with modded third party servers.

[amber kelp]

Im not referring to bf2042.
Im talking about the next bf game, which has been reported to double down on specialists

[mental delta]

What do you mean by double down, like double the amount or the importance of specialists that's it ?

[bold trout]

Dice isn't even the same teams anymore I'd rather they just went a new direction

[amber kelp]

As in it will be more of a hero shooter with more battle royale elements

[idle crater]

dont believe everything you read online

[lethal tangle]

Like isn't overwatch constantly adjusting the heroes weekly? Could you imagine if they neglected it for months like dice is gonna do to bf2042 in a couple years

Battlefield 4 had a bad launch. On launch it only supported 64 players.

[amber kelp]

Yeah but the dude is pretty credible. Its quite possible that the dumpster fire of this game will change their plans though.
