battlefield-2042

[olive lake]

No problem

[granite sable]

Oh funny you mention that because it sometimes happens in Halo Infinite too but I didn't play it enough to notice

[vivid lily]

Hourglass is still unplayable in the second stage of breakthrough on series X

[arctic grove]

Not only hourglass but breakaway. Damn that map is annoying while you’re attacking, quite a challenge

[granite sable]

Did you manage to fix it and if so, how?

[vivid lily]

Nope

Anyone else fee like the maps feel empty? Like every single map just lacks cover

Apart from orbital. It seems they prioritised large scale over quality lol

[arctic grove]

That was a discussion here earlier. A lot of maps have way more emphasis on vehicles and there’s too much empty land

You end up either having to run for 5 minutes or redeploy to get around the map without a ride and there’s not much cover anyway

[craggy marten]

Feels?! We know.

[vivid lily]

I like the part of the game where you run for 5 minutes and then get cross mapped by the pp29

[lament plank]

its almost like the whole notion of only being able to spawn in a squad mates vehicle instead of literally any vehicle is a BAD IDEA

[arctic grove]

It’s especially bad on rush

[craggy marten]

Feeling makes it seem like there's a slight chance that you might be wrong, but you're right.

[vivid lily]

Im still pissed off that they ended support for battlefront 2 for this game

[lament plank]

huurrrr wow i can see 3 main battle tanks on objective C on hourglass, but i cant spawn in them because my squad isnt in them oh well better spawn at B so i can run there instead

[vivid lily]

Running simulator 2042

[arctic grove]

And then your whole squads doing something completely different at a different part of the map

[craggy marten]

I hope EA's investors are fuming at EA for the upcoming drop of sales from things like the BP barely getting any subs due to the player drop.

[arctic grove]

Damn, the game needs a lot of work but that many players left?

[lament plank]

yep because theres no actual incentive to have squad play. you basically have to find people to play with to get actual squad mechanics

[arctic grove]

The focus is just personal progression and kills really

That’s why condours get bullied cause half the time it’s just a bunch of random guys couped up but sometimes you get good guys on em

Can you really stop it? Not necessarily. Having squad play at some parts of a game then none at others is normal when you play with 32 or 64 random guys

[gusty jasper]

bro this game is shit but oh my god, 64 player breakthrough is actually makes this game somewhat enjoyable

[raw vale]

i am disappointed that Rao doesnt say "hello, your computer has virus" when he hacks something smh my head

[arctic grove]

I got off a game of 128 players on breakaway. Attacking is cancer on that map

[dusky blade]

Breakaway is cancer

[arctic grove]

Vehicles also harvest guys on the attacking team cause attacking team gets little vehicles for some reason

It’s bolt and hovercraft field

[raw vale]

imagine playing 128p

[arctic grove]

Despite this the game is enjoyable so I’m not trashing it but it sure is an experience alright

[fringe bobcat]

if i could barely run bf2024 in beta should i buy the full game? idk if its been optimized better

[raw vale]

the moment they remove 64p i'll just play halo or bf1 instead lol.

[vivid lily]

They better not

[raw vale]

buy it on steam, they have the best refund policy

[craggy marten]

Things to fix 2042:

1. Bring back classes and make a 5th class for specialist for Jack of all trades type players, the classes are IN the game but only for AI, you can give them cosmetics too.

2. Fix the Jets and give them lift and not keep them feeling like paper airplanes, and helis too.

3. Better map design and destruction.

4. Add the things that should have been here since day 1 that is considered a "legacy feature"

5. Make Portal have more detailed variety in terms of HUDs for vehicles like the BF3 tanks having the same first person HUD seen in 2042 tanks instead of lazy copy pastes.

[raw vale]

buy it then if your pc cant run it then refund it. steam will guarantee your money back within 24 hours

[arctic grove]

Jets are super weird still so I agree. But you’ll wanna make sure you’re more specific on 3 and 4

There’s ea guys here with eyes and ears out in this chat so make sure you’re precise

[vivid lily]

Its so fucking annoying whenever you select “MEDIC TYPE” loadout then realise you have to change to a different shitty specialist to revive people.

[craggy marten]

3. Maps are too empty with the space making destruction less viable due to map size.

4. I was making reference of scoreboards due to someone at DICE saying its a legacy feature and that they are considering adding that, when it's clearly a necessity, not a legacy feature.

[vivid lily]

Just give me my classes back its probably easier to make 10 classes 5 on each side than this shitshow of specialists

[raw vale]

i wanted more jets, the only thing we have right now are fighter jets, i want a jet that can also focus on ground attack, like the a10 and su-25 in bf4

inb4 legacy feature

[vivid lily]

stealth jets

Its the future too where are the UAVs

[raw vale]

i also hate the new physics, it's literally hard to pull up from diving

[granite sable]

A-10 go BRRRRRRRRRRR

[craggy marten]

That's what I mean with paper plane physics, they can only go up fine but once you fly down you are fucked.

[arctic grove]

In 2021 we’ve got UAVs that are quite effective in ground attack so agree. Those would be a cool feature

[raw vale]

and how fast you can take off, the planes in bf1942 even require a higher speed and momentum to take off, meanwhile in bf2042 you only need like 100 meters to take off

[arctic grove]

Not only planes but helicopters need to be adjusted too, you have to point your helicopter at the dirt in order to move forward, bf4 did helis best imo

[raw vale]

i also hate how they removed the i reticle that indicates where your rockets are actually going, and the gunner gun direction indicator

[vivid lily]

And i wanna see some naval battles or something

[worn hatch]

^

[vivid lily]

Like imagine a fight on the deck of a docked aircraft carrier

[worn hatch]

i want more guns

[raw vale]

guns are legacy feature

[vivid lily]

They should add the portal guns

[arctic grove]

The gunner gun direction thing is pretty important imo, you get a wacky pilot you’re gunning with and they’re making all sorts of turns and then you don’t even really know where you’re facing

[median cipher]

For the love of christ this game is straight dog poop. FIX the NO LOOK UP AND DOWN BUG WHEN EXITING VEHICLES. FIX NOT BEING ABLE TO DEPLOY CHUTES WHEN LEAVING A HELICOPTER.

Seriously, how bad at dev do you have to be to allow this to be launched in this state, and not have a patch every week. Amateur hour clown shit.

[arctic grove]

We won’t get anywhere insulting the guys we also point to to fix this game at our commands

[hazy otter]

It's a good start

[median cipher]

Past the point of playing nice with these clowns. $100 is a $100, and this is horrendous.

[raw vale]

i just want the gun cocking animation on spawn to be gone, or atleast immediately cancellable when you ADS

[vivid lily]

Yeah ive been robbed

[arctic grove]

Yea I hear ya there

[raw vale]

imagine actually paying for this game, i got it for free

[arctic grove]

I don’t regret my pre order, I just wanna see this game do well. And it not take 2-3 years to get there

[worn hatch]

^

[raw vale]

dont worry this game will be fixed once the legacy features are implemented back COPIUM

[arctic grove]

Lol we need em in this content update 🙏

[vivid lily]

Apparently the game cost 2 billion to make. 4.3 million sales leaves us with a loss at the moment of about 1.75 billion…

[arctic grove]

Dayum

[fading beacon]

Cap

[raw vale]

you have to wait 3 months unfortunately (rumored), i just want them to not remove 64p as that is whats making me play the game.

[vivid lily]

Thats why i said apparently

[fading beacon]

Where’s the source

[vivid lily]

https://uproxx.com/edge/battlefield-2042-delay-ea-stock-crash-leak-reaction/ i just googled it and its the first thing that came up so i went with it

[arctic grove]

It’s just math really but he could be wrong as well

[fading beacon]

GTA5 is the most expensive game made at 265million

[arctic grove]

If this game took even 500 mil to make I’d be questioning where that all went

[vivid lily]

I dont think dice or ea is gonna go around boasting about how much this shitshow cost to make

[fading beacon]

Bro, that link is taking about their share price dropping cause of how shitty the game is. Has nothing to do with how much it cost to make

[vivid lily]

LOL

Told you i diddnt read it

But still cost EA 2 billion in some way

[arctic grove]

Uhhhhhhh….

[vivid lily]

Yeah technically but theres still a shit ton of bugs and no content

[arctic grove]

Ye it’s still got a lot to do

[craggy marten]

Hey @ripe hedge, since you mentioned you allowed for pings when it comes to feedback (you mentioned once that you like giving your fellow devs our feedback in return) a while back, here you go.

If I misheard something I won't ping back like this again.

[arctic grove]

Let’s put some hope into March

[craggy marten]

By March, the game will be a pile of ash sadly.

[vivid lily]

Yeah but having to wait 4 months from launch to get season one is a fucking joke. Will be dead and buried by then

[arctic grove]

Usually games in this situation kinda revive when major updates roll out though so we’ll see

Updates gotta be promising first though

[vivid lily]

Updates gotta fix the game were still playing pre alpha

[median cipher]

Hey guys it's a live service, but you have to wait 4+ months post release. lmao why not just delay it until then.

Game is dead and buried by February I bet.

[merry hollow]

....

[raven yew]

I swear, I always get the stupidest rangers. Mine decided to go down an elevator that I wasn't even in

[worn hatch]

this game could have killed gta and fortnite if it was executed properly, shame they released it with all its bugs

[hazy otter]

man imagine gta with true fps elements

[vivid lily]

I wish gta first person would actually work

But the movement is still 3rd person your just in first person view its weird.

[unique oyster]

Battlefield 5 is full in almost all servers lmao

[desert elbow]

Ngl Battlefield 5 is actually such a good game, it's a shame it removed many features from BF1 though

Such as behemoths and so on, overall I'd say it feels like one of the most polished Battlefields

[worn hatch]

bf5 is good but it lacked content imo

[desert elbow]

Very true

[worn hatch]

it felt like i was playing the same game over and over again and everyone played the same way every round

[desert elbow]

Imagine if it had the same amount of content as Battlefield 1, with Naval maps & even the Eastern Front

It's really a shame they cut it off

[vivid lily]

Battlefield 5 got so fun in the end

[worn hatch]

ww2 games are good but they get boring when every game studio is making them

[arctic grove]

Imagine fall blau in bfv

[vivid lily]

Like I could change play style every game. One game id run around repairing bridges and building fortifications while taking out enemy tanks and planes with the AA guns, then id be a medic, sniper etc. now everything has blended into a mediocre at best shitshow.

[hot yacht]

Current optimized bfv is the best battlefield

[desert elbow]

Was that the campaign which took place around Kursk?

[wheat pecan]

bfv like 6 months after release was peak bfv imo

[desert elbow]

What made it worse?

[wheat pecan]

i prefered how much more realistic it was

the pacific updates were a bit... out there

and the cosmetics and elites got way more unrealistic too

[desert elbow]

I could still sustain my suspense for disbelief, but you're right about the cosmetics

Surely there's a mod out there which replaces all cosmetics with those historically accurate ones (Client side though)

[arctic grove]

Cheap

[wheat pecan]

i also hate the orange menu and the pacific music

[arctic grove]

No, the campaign which took place to capture Stalingrad and the Baku oil fields.

[wheat pecan]

idk why it just really bothers me

[desert elbow]

Ah fair enough, Stalingrad would be stunning especially with Battlefield 5's destruction

[wheat pecan]

dont think there are many mods at all tbh especially ones like that

[desert elbow]

I remember some people made some historically accurate mods for bf1 so maybe

[arctic grove]

The forgotten fronts thing of bfv didn't work well though

[wheat pecan]

power creep was also an issue

[desert elbow]

You have to admit they were beautiful though, especially Norway

[unique oyster]

Playing 5 destruction looks next gen

[wheat pecan]

i definitely have a soft spot for fjell
best map imo

[desert elbow]

Fjell was really good for planes & infantry but I don't believe there were any land vehicles right?

[wheat pecan]

nope
which i liked

[arctic grove]

I just got an email back from EA
They said they're gonna keep me banned, even though I still never cheated on 2042

Great

[arctic grove]

The diversity in bf1 was historically rooted
The blacks in the us, and Britain and france in bf1 actually took part in numerous campaigns
The women in the Russian imperial army in bf1 were actually part of the women's battalion of death, a 1000 strong only women sniper battalion.

[vivid lily]

Refund it

[edgy oriole]

sounds like a rip friend. if thats the case then something had to be fishy. but easy anti cheat is poo poo

[unique oyster]

There’s hardly any content for thay price

[vivid lily]

I wanted a game with guns and cool military vehicles and cool nameless soldiers i can play as

[desert elbow]

The diversity in BF1 was definitely somewhat accurate but it was definitely exaggerated, there was not nearly as much diversity as they portray ingame. However I don't really mind since it's a game at the end of the day, I'm glad they included everyone

[arctic grove]

That was the second email I sent them too
They even said they won't disclose their procedures of making such a decision as well
That's pretty sus

[old path]

will the game get discount on winter sale?

[vivid lily]

Robbery

[arctic grove]

[arctic grove]

You know whose diversity was inaccurate? Bfv's

[wheat pecan]

i think the diversity being as prevalent as it was was a "neccessary evil" in a way bc although it wasnt entirely accurate its better than no inclusion for half the combattants of the war

[wheat pecan]

YES
i dont hate diversity, just unneccesary diversity

[vivid lily]

Idk i feel like games should provide evidence of why you got banned. Like you cant get sentenced to prison without reason

[median cipher]

Imagine if they just made portal with BF4,3, and 2 remakes with all of those guns.

[edgy oriole]

I think easy anti cheat looks for anything that could be cheat or altering for the game youre playing or other games aswell. i could be wrong and dont quote me. but i think thats the case.

[arctic grove]

A lot of combatants in ww1 were from colonial nations.

[desert elbow]

True, but so was BF1's. However BF5's was definitely more prelevant

[arctic grove]

EA is such scum, dude

[arctic grove]

Though bf1 and V put fun above all in their gameplay

[vivid lily]

I don’t really care about diversity that much it doesn’t matter to me (not in the bad way)

[desert elbow]

Yeah that's true, which is why the arsenals are really unrealistic, but at the end of the day it's a game

[arctic grove]

I
AM BACK
FINALLY UNMUTED

[edgy oriole]

[vivid lily]

Muted speedrun any%

[arctic grove]

2nd time ez speedrun

[arctic grove]

No matter how realistic your Multiplayer
game is, like in hell let loose, there'll always be the guy who screws over the historical accuracy in the matches, like hip firing an mg42

I'm gonna eat the server

[vivid lily]

Please dont

[arctic grove]

You first little one

[vivid lily]

NOOOOOOO

[vivid lily]

There have definitely been attempts to hipfire an mg42

[arctic grove]

If you ain't hipfiring mg42 wyd with yo life

[vivid lily]

Exactly

[arctic grove]

See in bf5 I used only recon but

I only used the gewehr 95 with bayonet and 3x

[edgy oriole]

speaking of hell let loose

ERIKAAAAA

[arctic grove]

I use the m1903 experimental in bf1
Historical accuracy can suck it

Dam can't say funny German ww2 soldier

[vivid lily]

Heiß von hunderttausend kleinen Bienelein???

[arctic grove]

That's hot

[vivid lily]

Kinda wish the naughty naughty german soldiers name and flag wasn’t censored in games where you fight against them

[arctic grove]

DICE PLS FIX THIS https://youtu.be/kIOuyFOEDoI?t=5035

[edgy oriole]

you live in Germany?

[vivid lily]

Nope

[edgy oriole]

oh ok. i know its censored/banned in germany

[vivid lily]

Bro i was suprised that lots of games are censored in different countries

[arctic grove]

Whats a "Naught Naught German name" 🤔

Wolfeschlegelsteinhausenbergerdorff?

dookie

[edgy oriole]

i know/thjink siege had to cchange some stuff up bc of the Chinese player base

[arctic grove]

ok.

[vivid lily]

It rhymes with yahtzee

[arctic grove]

[median cipher]

Fix jumping out of a chopper and not being able to pull your chute, fix jumping out of vehicles and not being able to look up or down, fix hit registration, fix this games awful maps, fix everything.

[vivid lily]

I feel like they had a toy story 2 moment without the pregnant woman working from home

[arctic grove]

wat

[weak epoch]

end support for this game and make a better one

[arctic grove]

Too soon

[vivid lily]

Toy story 2s files got deleted from their server on accident and the only person that had a backup was some woman working from home

[weak epoch]

too soon or not i think its already happened

[arctic grove]

Also they cant bf is dead unless the halo dude pumps some life into it

[weak epoch]

they already said they are working on new title and they havent done anything good to this game

[arctic grove]

Lmao

[weak epoch]

soonest updates planned for march

[desert elbow]

People wanted that for bf5 but now we're regretting that after seeing it's potential

[raven crescent]

I did not realize there was a chat box on PS4

[edgy oriole]

WHO wanted that for bfv. ill fight them

[weak epoch]

lets be real BFV had fantastic content but the game never recovered

[desert elbow]

You didn't want more content for bf5?

[weak epoch]

if the next update is march this game wont recover either

[desert elbow]

Sadly not enough content

[edgy oriole]

i did. im assuming you said that bc the reply is saying end support for this game.

[weak epoch]

its hard to say BFV didnt recover because of a lack of content

[desert elbow]

Ah right

[slate warren]

Titanfall is a much better game than battlefield 2042

[weak epoch]

also if you think there was a lack of content in BFV that makes this game pre-alpha level of content

[desert elbow]

I'd say it was one of the main reasons

Launch 2042 has more content than launch bf5

[edgy oriole]

i think there is a lack of content bc they didnt make russian focus dlc. 😦

[weak epoch]

mate no it doesnt wdf

[slate warren]

Stfu serrated please

[weak epoch]

dude I unlocked everything every vehcile upgrade in early access of 2042.... I STILL havent unlocked everything in BFV after 800 hours

[desert elbow]

It definitely does, bf5 had 30 weapons at launch

[edgy oriole]

plus weapon challenges in bfv were killer. i loved it.

[desert elbow]

2042 Has over 70

[weak epoch]

whaaaaaaaaaa it has 22

[desert elbow]

Including Portal it's over 70

[weak epoch]

lmfao nope nope nope your a clown im out of this convo

[median cipher]

lol don't include portal in anything. There's hardly any progression there.

[weak epoch]

heres some content for you BFV has 30 planes with 12 unique customizations for each one and 16 for the pacific planes

[desert elbow]

What? It's the truth lmao

[weak epoch]

thats like 400+ customizations the 2 jets in this game have 5

[desert elbow]

They are still weapons though

[desert elbow]

The weapons had skill trees instead of customisation, so I could say guns in bf5 only have like 6

[median cipher]

no, that's just nonsense. They're not weapons you can use in the 2042 base game.

[desert elbow]

They are still in the game though, he brought up pacific vehicles even though you can't use them in the base bf5 maps

[weak epoch]

fanboys in the official discord will blindly support terrible development its insane

but hey keep fanboying im sure that will convince dice we dont need to fix the game

[desert elbow]

I could say you're fanboying over 5 rn

[median cipher]

2042 has almost no new content that can be used to play progression. Has hardly any maps, and any modes.

[weak epoch]

im trying to show you how much of a step down 2042 is

[desert elbow]

I guess they're relying on the players to make the modes in Portal

[desert elbow]

Yet bf5 had less content at launch

[chrome obsidian]

they should give us more options then

[median cipher]

yea let's totally gimp portal's progression on the new guns and then expect players to use the mode lmao, what a trash decision.

[weak epoch]

Like believe me ive TRIED to make this game works and every single time I hope off realizing this game sucks im LVL 90 ffs

Im a diehard BF fan so I want this games success

[wind wasp]

hardline > 2042

my biggest complaint is the specialist

[desert elbow]

You wanted them to end support for the game though

[wind wasp]

It was the worst idea imo

[median cipher]

and to be totally fair to Dice. If they enabled full progression again and showed any care in Portal. I'd reverse my "this game is trash" take, immediately.

[granite sable]

i honestly wouldnt mind all this games many flaws if it wasnt for the specialists

[weak epoch]

because we are that far in the hole.

[granite sable]

AND THE CHEESY FUCKING COMMENTS THEY MAKE GAHHHHH

[desert elbow]

Not at all

[wind wasp]

people really thought 2042 was gonna be better then 4 , 3

[granite sable]

whoever came up with the specialist idea should be taken out in the backyard and put down

[weak epoch]

Ive partially lots hope I cant even pinpoint exactly what needs changing to fix the game because theres sooooo much

[wind wasp]

agreed it's absolutely terrible

[edgy oriole]

more maps less bugs to start.

[median cipher]

I had hope that Portal was going to be the next big thing, combining all the past games. That doesn't appear to be it...sadly.

[wind wasp]

To start with fixes #1 should be optimization

[weak epoch]

optimization wont do anything

[hidden sand]

BFV had 10 tanks, 9 planes, 22+ weapons, and 8 maps if we're talking about new and not remade content.

[weak epoch]

people keep thinking optimization is some magical tool to give people fps boosts

[wind wasp]

2042 is basically reskinned

[weak epoch]

the way this game is designed optimization can barely change your fps

[desert elbow]

Exactly, BF2042 has more in all of those fields except planes, which is understandable since it has helicopters to fill in for that gap

[hidden sand]

BF2042s new content consists of 2 tanks, 2 jets, 22 weapons, and 7 maps. That's not more.

[wind wasp]

BFV more fun at launch imo

[desert elbow]

Include Portal

[civic relic]

Is the scar any good

[hidden sand]

I'm not including portal though, I specified new content. Not remade.

[edgy oriole]

scar is OP af. it says 36 handling but it is a lazer. very good

[desert elbow]

BF5 Content wasn't new since it was in 1942 by that logic

[fossil trench]

BF2042 needed more development time

[median cipher]

If this game was truly supposed to be BR, Dice can go shove it where the sun doesn't shine, and give it to another developer to try.

[wind wasp]

wish bf1 had more players

[fossil trench]

I think everyone can agree on that

[wind wasp]

bf1 was such a good game

[raw vale]

anyone here miss fortifications and squad call ins? i loved this features and they can actually make a difference in the game

[fossil trench]

Yeah it was. So much better

[stiff pollen]

Does anybody here actually have Dozer Tier 1 cause deadass I’ve hit a hard block rn between doing the supports, assaults or engineers for my masteries

[fossil trench]

Yeah that was one of the good parts of BFV

[hidden sand]

Idk what to tell you if you're not able to differentiate new content and remade content. BFV was new. 2042s main era is new. One beats the other in terms of content, what's the problem with acknowledging that?

[civic relic]

What is the button to toggle underbarrel grenade launcher

[edgy oriole]

x on pc

[hidden sand]

You can't use the Portal content alongside 2042, since it's all era locked. Including it doesn't make sense.

[desert elbow]

I don't get what you mean, of course its remade

[civic relic]

ty

[raw vale]

still baffled why x isnt the default crouch button in 2042, it has been like that since BF4 and I got used to it. i have to manually change it in the settings and I have X as crouch and C as toggle underbarrel

[wind wasp]

JUST PLAY BF4

[edgy oriole]

i skipped 4. and i always make sure C is crouch for me lol.

[raw vale]

i also hate how sliding now only requires one tap instead of double tapping it like in BFV, i cant recall how many times i accidentally slid off instead of just crouching

[wind wasp]

all my homies hate ea

[frank stratus]

i like EA and activision

what you gonna do?

[edgy oriole]

you unedit that post rn

[frank stratus]

nah

[edgy oriole]

[wind wasp]

I dont even think ive used any other specialist besides the wingsuit one

[frank stratus]

sundance

[wind wasp]

all the others are useless

[frank stratus]

angel is poggers his voiceline and the things he can do

[edgy oriole]

irish is most useful hero. super underrated

[frank stratus]

his defense is good ngl

[edgy oriole]

put up 2 servers. then the whole team doesnt thank even tho you see the projectile destroyed fill your screen and you know you saved everyones lives multiple times over

[frank stratus]

yea

[civic relic]

Scar or ac-42

[hot lynx]

Scar 100%

[frank stratus]

pistol

[edgy oriole]

i havent worked on ac yet bc im working on all attachments for scar. so i have to go with scar

[chrome storm]

Seems to take a while to join a round, waiting for players to join

[wind wasp]

lack of guns

[hot lynx]

Ac42 says like 1200 fire rate but it’s not that fast at all

[worn hatch]

whats gun has the fastest ttk in bf2042

[edgy oriole]

servers have been terrible since their portal server "fix" on the 18th

[chrome storm]

Oh

[bold meadow]

After playing warzone for the first time in months to almost a year
God 2042 ain't that bad

[edgy oriole]

pkp or a sniper prolly the 50 cal. lol.

[worn hatch]

not including those types of guns lol

[wind wasp]

im really mad there is only 2 lmgs bro

[steady tangle]

guys how the fuck do i beat proned pkp??

[worn hatch]

you dont.

[white geyser]

I need to use the PP29 again, god I feel like I lost interest that weapon

[naive yarrow]

this game is a joke man

[white geyser]

Season 1 rumor was leaked for BF 2042 and we will see if it's true and they need to show us this update, if they make a comeback

[naive yarrow]

no

march for season 1 ? games already shit enough,yea season one for one map lmao,this game is utter dogshit i’ve tired defending it and i’ve loved the bf games to death but goddamn how do u fuck up this badly,i have more fun going back and playin bf4 and bfv on ps5 then i do playing this game,this game mayhe can be saved but at this point saved is a strong word,at most it can be helped

[gleaming dawn]

I've been playing for awhile now and I'm not so down about it.

[desert elbow]

What makes it so bad?

[naive yarrow]

ur seriously gonna ask that question?

[gleaming dawn]

There are areas of maps that basically play out like Metro while other battles happen in other places and I like that

I also like the specialist system where you can kit yourself out how you want.

Not the YEAH ANGEL DOES IT AGAIN bullshit, to be clear

I think that this could be a good foundation for the series, but this game was released waaaaaay too early

[wind wasp]

probably was ea's fault too they rush the developers

[copper fulcrum]

The maps are so big that sectors can feel like maps themselves. You can stay the whole match on D sector of Kaleidoscope and it'll be fun

[gleaming dawn]

There are details here that people overlook, like when you're outside and can't see through a door into a house. But when you go inside, the lighting switches to make it visible inside. Maybe that's an RTX thing I dunno but it's there

[arctic grove]

anyone know how to fix low cpu/gpu usage?

[gleaming dawn]

The flat lighting on the snow is perfect, anyone who skis or snowboards can vouch

[naive yarrow]

forget bf1 and bfv for a brief moment,i complain bc the last modern bf game title was bf4,8-9 years later u would think there would be an improvement in change for a modern bf game,ik this game didn’t have much time in development but consideration still could’ve been taken to look at what ppl enjoyed ab bf4,that game had a rough start but the content received as well as the launch content given was a lot to sustain a lot of players,it’s minor things but how do u manage to remove a scoreboard,gamechat,server browser,more customization to passengers in tanks and helis,more guns in general,more rpgs/smaws,more maps,less focus on fucking cinematics and specialist dialogue and more on the actual game itself.How do u manage to make a well known franchise digress after every title ? most of the flaws are game implementations that aren’t present and if they are they’re jus half assed versions of previous ones,this game isn’t the worst bf in the world and ik bf launches are always rough but there still isn’t an excuse to learn from mistakes of past games,yea EA is also a big reason why but i’m pretty sure instead of advertising w cgi trailers and lying to us they could’ve pushed the back to this month and it would’ve been fine,from the early test build,you can see the game was not ready and it’s 128 player/tornado advertisement wasn’t a good idea

[fossil trench]

Is gun progression locked in custom portal?

[naive yarrow]

i don’t think so,i’ve unlocked things in portal beforr but then again portal is always scuffed

[gleaming dawn]

k

[copper fulcrum]

Gliding as Sundance from E to A is very fun

[white geyser]

They could have pick better maps, ever since they reveal the trailer and I said "They need to add US maps maybe Florida or California?" somewhere they can take us to battle in what city?

[copper fulcrum]

It's cough breathtaking

[arctic grove]

nahh

[naive yarrow]

i really thought hourglass was just dawn breaker but bigger and cooler w more buildings…

[wind wasp]

Worldwar 3 is the better version of battle field 2042

[white geyser]

Lets agree to disagree

[naive yarrow]

that game was announced like 7 years ago and hasn’t done shit lmao

[wind wasp]

Did you play the beta?

[naive yarrow]

ofc not cuz idc to play a game that’s literally everyones definition of a bf clone/bf killer

rather play bf4 and be happy lmao

[gleaming dawn]

I wish they could've made the existing maps better. There's incredible detail in some places and then there's copy/paste in others

[desert elbow]

How did they lie?

[wind wasp]

hardline s tier game

[white geyser]

They had plenty of time to make 2042 and somehow they screw up, yeah yeah I get it ever since the pandemic arrived, they didn't think they can do it at home and take their work with them? IDK

[fossil trench]

Anyone know?

[copper fulcrum]

In TDM and FFA, yes.

[fossil trench]

Ah okay

[gleaming dawn]

The thing that bugs me the most is that they went all-out with naval combat in the first one and then never did it again (bf1 kinda)

[naive yarrow]

“a love letter to fans”..well half the things they promised weren’t true,most the memes like c4 jeep launching can’t be done,the cool scenarios barely even happen and if they do it’s once ina while,they promised destruction and levelution and we have almost none of that

[gleaming dawn]

Battlefield is big maps and vehicles. They need to get back to it

[desert elbow]

That was Portal lmao and it lived up to that, also c4 jeep launching can be done. Also destruction & levolution is present

[formal wolf]

I like how bf lied about reviews

[naive yarrow]

naval maps in bf4 (naval strike my fav dlc) were probably the most fun i’ve had in bf4,aside from final stand,maps like lost island and op.mortar were really cool to me

[white geyser]

IDK if it was a good idea nerfing the vehicles weapons such as 57mm cannon for the wildcat tank they reduce it, but it felt like this is not how it suppose to be

[wind wasp]

im probably going back to bf4 in a month

[white geyser]

Until March season 1 arrived and they better show something good to make the fans happy, I'll be in the portal doing my own custom match

[naive yarrow]

portal is kinda ass tbh,recoil and bloom is everywhere,xp is ass,what destruction ? blowing a wall ans that’s it ? i mean actually knocking a house down,half of that can’t even be done or the maps don’t have anything to be taken down,and what levelution? i don’t see the map changing drastically w weather/in game events

[naive yarrow]

lmao good idea i do that whenever i get mad at 2042 and it’s really relaxing lol

[wind wasp]

i want to buy hardline on pc but its sadly prob dead still one of my favorite battle fields

[desert elbow]

Portal is great, the gunplay matches up with the previous games. Also you can level an entire town in hourglass & the shipwreck map, levolution is present in Orbital and the Shipwreck map too

[analog stirrup]

the block 24/7 is like the only server left

[wind wasp]

damn

Such a good game imo it was differnt and more infantry based

[naive yarrow]

compared to bf4 ? nah lmao

[desert elbow]

What's being compared?

[wind wasp]

But still had heli's cars motorcycles

[naive yarrow]

and the gunplay does not match up like the previous games,bloom wasn’t hideous like that before and if it was then shit i apparently was able to control a gun easier at the age of like 7

[unique oyster]

There are games in portal ?
It’s completely empty for me

[naive yarrow]

levelution and destruction,it’s not hard to jus admit it’s not the same,it’s worse

[desert elbow]

Bloom was far more present in bf3 than 2042

[unique oyster]

There isn’t any

[desert elbow]

The rocket on orbital

[unique oyster]

Rarely happens

[naive yarrow]

bro,is that changing the map drastically?

[desert elbow]

I could say the same about Lancang dam

[neat totem]

Daily reminder Zampella is gonna turn this into Battlefield for the Apex

[wind wasp]

i have yet to even see the rocket go off yet

[unique oyster]

For tornado expecting the buildings to fly off

[desert elbow]

Levolution isn't required to change the map drastically

[torn iron]

there are a couple spots that you can change the map stuff, but i wouldnt say that it is like levolution

[gleaming dawn]

I think the big complaint is that, why did we have to lose everything while the game modernizes

[wind wasp]

The tornado is like always never in the map so it does nothing

[gleaming dawn]

why not just keep giving the fans what they're expecting?

[wind wasp]

Bf2042 reminds me of Just cause 4 super hyped up and the game comes out mid

[unique oyster]

But that changes way you play

[steep tiger]

Because it doesn't market enough as a cool looking trailer for things they'll never get

[white geyser]

I found a lot of people in the portal, it's your region

[obtuse robin]

Anyone else having connection issues atm, or is my internet taking a shit tonight?

[naive yarrow]

bf4 u had a flood happen that brought ppl to rooftops lmao,at least lancing dam changed an area of the map,as for other maps like paracel where a whole flag would change,and i’m not sayin it’s required to change the map but then again it’s the most noticeable and drastic change to the map tho lmao i would assume a building falling and changing a flag is a map chabge opposed to a fuckin rocket blowing up and not doing much but changing one area when the map is 10 times bigger

[unique oyster]

It’s zero for me

I uninstalled the game now since free time is over

[desert elbow]

How?

[naive yarrow]

it would be cool if it changes and throws one of the flags somewhere lmao

[desert elbow]

Lancang dam added 1 pile of rubble, however you're right it did help

[obtuse robin]

Anyone else having connection issues atm, or is my internet taking a shit tonight?

[gleaming dawn]

I'd like to know what the Dice dev team's goals for BF are

[unique oyster]

Flood

[naive yarrow]

orbital adds broken debris of a rocket launch that no one ever even gets to see happen lol at least in bf4 most of them were triggered by players

but then again ur tryna defend 2042,most the community already sees this game as the end of battlefield so

[analog stirrup]

Live service hero shooter, clearly

[desert elbow]

The rocket provides tons more cover to the airstrip

[naive yarrow]

please jus stop man

[worn hatch]

this game needs more modes

[gleaming dawn]

I'm not so sure but who knows

[obtuse robin]

Anyone else having connection issues atm, or is my internet taking a shit tonight?

[naive yarrow]

no way u say this game has more map changes,destruction and levelution den bf4

[worn hatch]

i am

[desert elbow]

Nice dodge

[naive yarrow]

ppl be brain dead i swear

[desert elbow]

bf4 maps were designed around levolution as it was one of the main marketing devices

[edgy oriole]

servers been poop since their portal server "fix" on the 18th

[desert elbow]

Likewise with bf1 with behemoths

[gilded raptor]

am i able to upgrade to next gen for 10$? i only see the 70$ cross gen version on the store

[naive yarrow]

i rather have that then have a tornado that doesn’t serve any purpose and or change anything

[naive yarrow]

are u on ur next gen console ?

[gilded raptor]

yeah

[arctic grove]

Guys bf2042 is FUN

[desert elbow]

You can use it for transportation

[naive yarrow]

yea u should be able to,xbox or ps5?

[arctic grove]

FUN

F: Fucking
U: Unploished
N: Nightmare

[gilded raptor]

xbox

[obtuse robin]

Odd. I played a long time last night with no issues.. Tonight, when it even lets me play, it’s laggy af, then it usually boots me with a connection error before end of match.

[naive yarrow]

it should be in the add ons for the game/or as one of the editions

[naive yarrow]

lol

[gilded raptor]

okay, ill check it out

[desert elbow]

....

[unique oyster]

Lmao

Rest of the place is empty
Perfect sniper haven when there’s rocket and there is that tall building

[desert elbow]

Well yeah it's Battlefield

[naive yarrow]

bruh

[desert elbow]

Lancang dam is still sniper haven despite the levolution

[raw vale]

how do i stop the game from resetting man, the game literally threw me again at the first time launch cutscene and reset all my settings

[copper fulcrum]

Got Falck to Tier 1, I only got like three more Specialists to get to T1

[unique oyster]

You haven’t played the previous games haven’t you

[white geyser]

The longest sniper shot in battlefield history

[desert elbow]

I have, have you?

[copper fulcrum]

It's Battlefield

[unique oyster]

Yes

[naive yarrow]

new excuse now

[desert elbow]

Ironic

[naive yarrow]

i’ve lost all progression in game,and have been swatted…”it’s battlefield”

[unique oyster]

There’s no reason to defend this game

[desert elbow]

…

[desert elbow]

You’re defending bf4

[naive yarrow]

yea cuz it’s a good game ?

[copper fulcrum]

How dare people enjoy a game

[unique oyster]

Yes because at current state it’s amazing

[desert elbow]

So is 2042

[gilded raptor]

i can view the series x version of the game but it just says “not sold separately choose edition”

[unique oyster]

Barebones content

[lucid lichen]

Hi guys. Do someone know when snipers will get more scores for long range shoots???

[unique oyster]

I know legacy features will be added as dlc

[dire quest]

Pretty sure series x version is only available in gold/ultimate edition

[desert elbow]

More than bf5 at launch

[unique oyster]

5 didn’t deserve the hate really

[desert elbow]

I’d argue 5 is in the top 10 battlefield games

[unique oyster]

It is barebones but right now is amazing

[gilded raptor]

damn, i figured you’d be able to upgrade for a smaller price but ig not lmao

[white geyser]

BF5 they crap the history and make it alternate which is the part it wasn't accurate and the multiplayer average

[desert elbow]

Battlefield has never been accurate

[unique oyster]

Yea kill this game and another amazing game for even worse game

[dire quest]

Those looking for a PvE experience, enlisted is a free to play game which is 10v10 players but each player has a squad of ai that can range from 3 people to 10 people per squad

[edgy oriole]

i hope they make another battlefront in the future. i never gave them proper play time when they were allive/supported.

[unique oyster]

And also what made them think removing peak is a good idea
Peaking would be very useful for Irish

[white geyser]

They could have made 2042 like BF1 was amazing, they could have done that and NOT rush the game

[fossil trench]

Nope. Not for headshots either

[desert elbow]

I hope they can end up making the best battlefront game in the future, bringing back large scale battles from the originals

[edgy oriole]

yeah dude. i loved doing transports with the AI in the first one when i was a child lmao

[hidden sand]

Battlefield with a Battlefront skin, sounds good to me.

[naive yarrow]

battlefront died after the first one lmao second one was ass cuz EA always has micro transactions

[unique oyster]

Seriously for 2042 they could have added avengers helicarrier like ship
As 2042s version of behemoth

[fossil trench]

Yeah still doesn’t work

[naive yarrow]

literally what it was but it was still kinda fun ngl

[unique oyster]

Arc raiders

[desert elbow]

Battlefront 2’was amazingly didn’t you like it?

[lucid lichen]

That's sad(((

[hidden sand]

Battlefront from DICE wasn't really like Battlefield. The originals were though.

[desert elbow]

I remember using the transports on the capital ship battles, it was great

[unique oyster]

Currently it’s amazing
Now killed because of 2042

[white geyser]

I don't mind having battlefield with battlefront skin as long's it better be good and not fail

[desert elbow]

I’d argue the Battlefront games have some of the best AAA graphics to date

Definitely rivaling rdr2 and even recent games

[edgy oriole]

if anything battlefront/s are beautiful games.

[white geyser]

I still have battlefront 2 ever since they still support it before they stop

[copper fulcrum]

You asked if it was locked and I said yes

[fossil trench]

The Battlefront game reboots were a huge disappointment

[edgy oriole]

theyll make a 3rd im sure. a lot of people were quite upset when they said they were stopping support.

[fossil trench]

The original Battlefront games were amazing

[white geyser]

Before BF 2042 announced, I kept playing battlefront 2 in co-op just to chilled with other players

[unique oyster]

There won’t be a 3rd tho

[desert elbow]

How so? They were amazing

[hidden sand]

Battlefront 2 was a downgrade in the visuals in comparison to Battlefront 1 imo. It felt a lot more artificial in 2.

[fossil trench]

.

[unique oyster]

Ea can’t make Star Wars games anymore they don’t have rights

[fossil trench]

Battlefront reboot was Battlefield in Star Wars

[gleaming dawn]

Today, today I'm proud.

[fossil trench]

Nothing like the original Battlefronts

[desert elbow]

Other way around, the battlefront reboots felt more like Star Wars while the battlefront originals felt like battlefield

[fossil trench]

Yeah that’s true

[white geyser]

I want the AT-TE to be good like in the original battlefront and put it in the reboot

[fossil trench]

I should’ve said the originals were like battlefield because that’s pretty accurate

[hidden sand]

No it wasn't, what? The originals were like Battlefield. SWBF2015 was nothing like battlefield. SWBF2 only got a conquest like mode at the very end of its lifespan. They don't really play the same at all.

That's why they were disappointing imo. DICEs battlefronts should have been Battlefield reskins imo.

[fossil trench]

Imagine using the AT-AT in a huge open map like a regular BF vehicle and no timed access BS

[desert elbow]

It’s situational, a lot more of the vegetation and land was more realistic in battlefront 2015 since the setpieces were shot in real places so they could use it for photogrammetry while the prequels and sequels used a lot of cgi which is why the maps felt more artificial, however overall the effects were far better in battlefront 2

[fossil trench]

That was the original battlefront games

And you could use the hoth fighters to tie around the legs of the AT-AT

[white geyser]

If you're hoping for battlefront 3, don't get your hopes up for that because it's dead

[fossil trench]

Everything was so Battlefield. The battlefront reboot was so closed off and not like a open world at all

[edgy oriole]

you never know what you have till its gone 😦

[desert elbow]

That was a Tom Henderson leak, he’s been wrong before

[old hedge]

they already shot down the idea cuz they cant monetize lootbox with it , cuz last time they did uncle disney bent EA over and spanked him

[fossil trench]

Yeah no. Absolutely zero interest

[unique oyster]

There’s no battlefront 3 happening

[fossil trench]

Probably won’t even buy it if it ever comes out

[desert elbow]

The reboots felt a lot more like Rush in battlefield. I definitely would’ve preferred battlefield gameplay but just because we didn’t get that doesn’t mean it’s a disappointment

[old hedge]

so all they are going to do with the IP is make single player games out of it until it expires , they are already done with the star was IP tbh

[hidden sand]

I don't agree honestly. The effects felt way more like Star Wars in Battlefront 1. Battlefront 2 took a lot more liberties when it didn't need to, imo.

[fossil trench]

It is to me. They turned the franchise in the wrong direction

[white geyser]

All this years we never had an open world star wars game and right now we there hasn't been one yet

[old hedge]

the problem is they cant monetize it , the moment they did the fans brought it up to disney then EA ate a face full of shit for it

[hidden sand]

I mean that does possibly make it a disappointment to someone lol. What is disappointing is subjective.

[old hedge]

knowing they cant spin a stable profit from it they are done with the SW license and just wants it expire or someone take it from them

[arctic grove]

after playing Battlefield 1 i realized how bad 2042 is

my God

[desert elbow]

Good for you

[white geyser]

If it's EA's fault for rushing BF 2042 to be done, fuck you EA and your dumbest idea to do that

[edgy oriole]

i want pubg 2

[arctic grove]

The only good thing is the tornadoes.

The rest looks like they took everything they had in previous games

Wtf

[toxic crater]

i think you dont play the game

[arctic grove]

And wingsuit, i forgor

The only two good things, lmao

[toxic crater]

i still dont think you play the game

[desert elbow]

So how exactly is that bad?

[gleaming dawn]

A good dinner costs way more than this game, why are people so emotionally invested in it?

[toxic crater]

Why are you investing much keycaps into this message if its not necessary

[arctic grove]

Wtf?

[gleaming dawn]

?

[white geyser]

If you have other social media account and if you're following battlefield, post a comment if they post anything and tell them to fix the game and how you felt

[toxic crater]

in other words, no one cares

[gleaming dawn]

I mean, you do

[arctic grove]

Simply most of the mechanics that had in the old Battlefield were removed in 2042

[toxic crater]

nah im only using freedom of speech to express how no one cares

[arctic grove]

And I realized that playing 1 now

It's just insane the lack of detail it had compared to 1

[desert elbow]

You just complained it had a lot of previous features though

[edgy oriole]

bf 1 is okay, but probably one of my most forgetful battlefield games. tbh. other than bf4 bc i skipped that one

[arctic grove]

Have employees changed? Did something happen?

[gleaming dawn]

See I don't know about that. The maps are bigger but pay attention to the details.

[arctic grove]

from 2016 to now

[empty bloom]

yeah the ones that did work on battlefield originally left

[edgy oriole]

i believe most if not all the ogs have left.

[desert elbow]

That's not true

[arctic grove]

You say in 1?

[empty bloom]

oh you mean 1 nvm

[white geyser]

If I remember correctly, didn't EA tell the developers they gonna have their own studio to make games and trying to copy like COD did?

[arctic grove]

The 1 is amazing, it's all based on real facts from the first war, the battlefields, clothes and even soldiers' voices in different languages

It's amazing the feeling of this game

In 2042 it seems that it became a joke for the company

[gleaming dawn]

1 is not amazing and that's the only bf game I basically skipped. And that's after I tried to hype my buddies. BF1 had an amazing preview video

[arctic grove]

I don't understand why they do this

[desert elbow]

Battlefield 5 is immersive but not too realistic

[arctic grove]

Bruh

[gleaming dawn]

It's gone downhill ever since they unified the console and pc versions of the game

[hazy vector]

i didn't like either 1 or 5, historic based warfare is boring to me

[arctic grove]

I don't know about Battlefield V, I've never played it

[copper fulcrum]

Most of my BF4 mates didn't get along with 1 but now they're on 2042.

[desert elbow]

Sorry I meant bf1

[white geyser]

The good memories of BF1 and everyone takes a huge dump on cod infinite warfare

[desert elbow]

How's that?

[gleaming dawn]

You didn't notice how the menus got replaced with a UI that was console friendly?

[desert elbow]

How's that a problem though?

[gleaming dawn]

everything got simplified

[copper fulcrum]

A simple UI is a good one

[arctic grove]

^^

[gleaming dawn]

we lost features due to this

[desert elbow]

Well yeah

[arctic grove]

It became a game made for children it looks like, what a joke

[copper fulcrum]

"what a joke"

[hazy vector]

there's isn't much to simplify about a ammo counter and health. but the menus are pretty shit if they're made for console and to be navigated arround with a stick

[gleaming dawn]

Every bf game has become, prettier but less shit to do

[copper fulcrum]

Lemme cross my arms, lean back in my chair and put a cigarette in my mouth "What a joke"

[desert elbow]

Every battlefield since bc1 has been suitable for children

[arctic grove]

If dice decides to fix this game... Perfect

[desert elbow]

Such as?

[gleaming dawn]

Such as, it was more fun when you could launch a plane off of my carrier deck

[arctic grove]

I remember the release of bf 4 was horrible too but they fixed it, something like that

[hazy vector]

there's not much to do in battlefields regardless? just shoot people with the aid of vehicles and of recently, environments

[desert elbow]

You couldn't do that in BF2 and that wasn't for consoles

[arctic grove]

Bfv and 2042 are mature in only name.

[gleaming dawn]

you could do that in the first one and it was great

[arctic grove]

Well, compared to other fps, there's a lot to do

[hazy vector]

you could fly off a carier, but not really launch no

[hot yacht]

[arctic grove]

Bf1 is not for children though,

[desert elbow]

Yeah but not bf2, which wasn't "consolified" as you called it

[white geyser]

They did fix BF4 and they added 3 expansion maps and they gave us free bow and arrow we couldn't unlock

[arctic grove]

Cod is extremely annoying in multiplayer because it's always the same shit.

[desert elbow]

Neither is bf2042

[arctic grove]

And other fps games are the same every time

[gleaming dawn]

did they release bf2 for consoles?

[hazy vector]

technically none of the battlelfieds are for young audiences

[desert elbow]

Nope

[copper fulcrum]

Uhh

[gleaming dawn]

that's my point

[hazy vector]

we had 1943 on consoles (which was the 360 at the time? so 720P on a good day), but i don't think that went well

[desert elbow]

Your point is that since battlefield has been available for consoles it keeps getting simpler when in reality it was always getting simpler even before consoles

[copper fulcrum]

BF3, BF4, BFV, 1943 all had aircraft carrier take-offs or am I just misunderstanding you?

[gleaming dawn]

I shouldn't make it seem like I think it's a bad idea to unify pcs and consoles but I'm just saying. It was better before consoles

[hazy vector]

takeoffs yes, but not launches

where they yeet you off with a cable

[desert elbow]

It was going down a more casual route even before it merged with consoles

[copper fulcrum]

I couldn't care less, I'm still going up in the sky regardless

[hazy vector]

doesn't really matter in the end no

[gleaming dawn]

I want ships that can launch ships

[hazy vector]

i'd say that the lame spawning inside a already flying plane as in BF5 is worse

[desert elbow]

Which wasn't present in bf2, prior to battlefield being on consoles

[wooden cradle]

yo

anyone wanna play

[copper fulcrum]

I'd say the spawning in an already flying plane is okay. Causes less spawn camping and I don't think there's going to be an airstrip on every single battlefield

[gleaming dawn]

yeah, no shit it's been going the wrong way

[desert elbow]

Not really, you said it's been happening because of consoles when in reality it was the direction they were going either way

[gleaming dawn]

you on a ps4 or something?

[copper fulcrum]

What's the point on spawning in a jet if there's the possibility a tank or some guy with a rocket launcher... or hell another Jet just doing loops around the airstrip?

[desert elbow]

Why does that matter

[hazy vector]

now they just "camp" the spawn screen

[gleaming dawn]

lol

[copper fulcrum]

Honestly, better than just people standing physically, staring at an empty hangar or carrier

[hazy vector]

If your team is playing well, someone is keeping the airstip clean

[white geyser]

2142 better be in the portal, it will be 1942 vs 2042 vs 2142 so the timeline is fuck up, but I still want BF4 don't give a shit about reskin from BF3, BF4 has more weapons and vehicles attachment than BF3 and both games were set in the different timeline, BF3 set in the the year 2014 and BF4 set in 2020.

[desert elbow]

.....

[hazy vector]

can't, they'd need to create physics for the titans, as that's the main defining feature of 2142 that you might want

[copper fulcrum]

I just want Capture the Flag back

[hazy vector]

but it'd be hilarious to assault a titan with 1942 weapons

[copper fulcrum]

Gunther and his STG-44 boards a floating piece of metal

[hazy vector]

be a guy who's sole purpose is to destroy the consoles inside it

[copper fulcrum]

Not sure which specialist to complete first, Irish, Boris or Angel (does it again!)

[white geyser]

IDK if they can bring back the titans, maybe they'll leave it behind

[grave sluice]

Any news for mouse keyboard support on ps5 for bf42 ? İ mean it is cross play. And is it fair that pc can use keyboard mouse and controller while ps5 only controller ? Come on..!

[hazy vector]

if you don't have the titans maps, why even put 2142 in portal? to mess with walkers and EMP artilery?

[arctic grove]

Man people out here really wanting mouse and keyboard support on console huh

[hazy vector]

my best guess is because they can't afford (not weird these days) to build a computer with simular specs

[grave sluice]

There is no aim support on console. While you guys kicking our sses with mouse. We are struggling man. İf no cross play, there is no problem.

[white geyser]

It might take time to remastered titan maps for 2142 and put it in the portal to update it

[hazy vector]

i thought there was aim assist? just not as blantant

[arctic grove]

There is

I can show you all the aim assist settings there is like 3 or 4 aim assist settings for controller

[grave sluice]

İf i pray to god “please help me to shoot this guy” this would be more assist than now.

[fallen yoke]

We need.... Metro remastered map! 😂😂😂

[hazy vector]

what are you expecting? "snapping to the enemy" aim assist?

[arctic grove]

You can do that

For about 10 years I thought cross-play would be awesome and here we are living in the future...

[grave sluice]

Call of duty assist is good.

[hazy vector]

well this aint call of duty

[grave sluice]

At least competetive againsr mouse.

[arctic grove]

Man just say you want to use your cronus

[white geyser]

We got crossplay and makes us happy and not bitch about can't play with my friends because they have different platform

[marble dagger]

is Siege of Shanghai in? I heard a lot of news articles saying it'd drop with launch about 6 months ago

[arctic grove]

I remember back in modern warfare where people would use keyboard and mouse on xbox and turn off cross-platform

[marble dagger]

eg: https://www.altchar.com/game-news/battlefield-2042-to-feature-metro-caspian-border-siege-of-shanghai-and-more-classic-maps-asb3l6I5HKJ0

[arctic grove]

The real scum

[grave sluice]

İ just bought ps5 and sold my pc. Single player games are fun as hell. But competitive fps games are pain. İ dont even know what is cronus. So why flame instead of support ?

[arctic grove]

Simply because my say in the matter won't bring k&m support to bf

[hazy vector]

FPS games are known to not be that great played on controlers when you've been on mouse and keyboardr for years

[arctic grove]

And I have to keep that same energy

[gleaming dawn]

curious what your pc specs were

[grave sluice]

Wow this community welcomes everyone huh ? Keep that vibe and im sure you keep your friends that cross play.

[arctic grove]

Plus if you're new to console and don't understand the aim assist all it does is slow down your sensitivity when highlighted over an enemy so you can hit your shots easier

[grave sluice]

İve got 1060 as gpu

[marble dagger]

do they still region lock games on PS/XB?

[gleaming dawn]

good job selling while prices are high I guess

[marble dagger]

I haven't had a console since PS2

[arctic grove]

Idk what a region lock is

[hazy vector]

i still have my PS2/og XBOX in storage somewhere

[arctic grove]

I always travel to New Zealand on my xbox to play stuff early

[hazy vector]

and a og wireless logitech controler that were made for both

[fiery solar]

nothing too crazy

[marble dagger]

you used to need to buy games from your region... but back then it was from the shop, if you bought a dodgy Chinese version it wouldn't play

[fiery solar]

i want to walk through caspian border in a titanfall mech

[marble dagger]

my Dad got me a 50+ game disk... that my PS2 wouldn't touch 😦

[arctic grove]

Oh like if you bought a console in Australia it will be registered in Australia

[marble dagger]

Iron Man vibes

Yup, I think there were 3 regions... Asia/EU/Amer (+rest of world)

[scenic tartan]

Breakthrough matches are so lopsided lol

[arctic grove]

I don't think xbox does that I can change my region anytime then it gives me the pricing for said region if I want to buy something

[fiery solar]

breakthrough fun

[scenic tartan]

Either you win on defending the first point or you lose with the attackers having 550 tickets

[grave sluice]

Dude i am just telling you if no cross play there is no problem at all. My enemy can 360 and snipe me with mouse while i am moving my aim. And this is not my bad. İ just want equality. İf there is a gap for cronus. Thats not my problem. Playstation or other companies should fix the problem. There is kyboard mouse support on warzone. İs it problem ? No. Why here..?

[hazy vector]

there was like 7, but the main ones were japan, europe, america, and to make it more fun: the UK

[white geyser]

I have fun breakthrough in solo/co-op

[marble dagger]

huh TIL

[hazy vector]

not as many as DICE hoped apparently

[white geyser]

hardly I think because it's a dead zone

[marble dagger]

not with randos... teammates just don't communicate

so I just go for the classic modes, they're alright... if a teammate decides to help, fantastic... if they don't, whatever

whereas with hazard you sort of need them lol

[edgy oriole]

i believe its 2042>portal>hazard. in regards to pop.

[marble dagger]

plus most of my teammates are Chinese... and I don't speak it very well

[white geyser]

I'm not touching hazard zone if they don't update it to make fun and the players will keep playing it

[arctic grove]

I think you're just running into good players then buddy

I wonder why

[marble dagger]

'eh, I enjoy the chaos of 2042

on breakthrough especially

[fiery solar]

yeah especially from afar

[arctic grove]

At the end of the day does it really matter about the player count as long as you have crossplay on and can find a match that is what counts

[edgy oriole]

i 100% do not touch conquest in 2042. breakthrough only until game death.

[marble dagger]

what's wrong with conquest?

[keen plank]

it is kinda funny that the bread and butter conquest got dropped so hard for breakthrough

[marble dagger]

it seems less lop-sided to me sometimes

and is much more individual "go where you're needed" style play

[white geyser]

Make custom WW3 in the portal using BF3 vs 2042, I create that custom match

[marble dagger]

can we add custom maps in portal?

[edgy oriole]

just dont have the appeal in this one. could be maps too empty on a couple maps. breakthrough has more guided confrontation.

[keen plank]

then again breakthrough is the closest you can get to a metro/locker-like meat grinder on these huge maps

[marble dagger]

not played with it yet

[scenic tartan]

Land mines are so bad
They only let you put 3 down at a time
They should give you like 10 and it would make them useful and make vehicles more careful

[copper fulcrum]

Breakthrough is a fuckload of chaos

[arctic grove]

Imagine if 30 players decided to use those 10 landmines

[scenic tartan]

I like both

[keen plank]

not unlike how those two maps played even in conquest, since they were both linear in nature. breakthrough is just that without the back capping.

[white geyser]

I hardly survive in the breakthrough doing solo on any map,

[scenic tartan]

@arctic grove there would be a max for the team of course but it needs to be more than 3 with these huge maps

[hazy vector]

no, only existing maps, and you can't physically alter them either

[marble dagger]

if I get 10 kills it's a good match lmao - I'm pretty bad, but I enjoy it

[arctic grove]

Just strategically place the 3 mines

[jovial jay]

I've seen like 1 dude who use landmine, out of 64 dudes, since they all carry ammo pack so they can camp in their corner

[gleaming dawn]

Breakthrough is better in this one because there's no way to communicate at a squad level

[hazy vector]

does portal still have the forced vehicle number limit?

[edgy oriole]

with death comes knowledge my child. soon youll be the murderer

[arctic grove]

Like place them on a car and drive into a tank

[marble dagger]

there's squad chat

[copper fulcrum]

Sorry, solo as in against AI or solo as in with other players but no buddies?

[scenic tartan]

@arctic grove placing them on the map is total luck because there's so much open space in the obj

[keen plank]

guess it's fun having established battle lines instead of squads just fighting over whatever, just two unified fronts duking it out.

[gleaming dawn]

lol

[marble dagger]

I usually just see Chinese swears in there though

[arctic grove]

Wait people mines or vehicle mines

[scenic tartan]

They are supposed to be for area denial but you can't do that with just 3

[marble dagger]

but I can sometimes get them to a specific point by saying A1/A2 etc

[white geyser]

Against A.I all by yourself, I'm not sure A.I teammates counts

[keen plank]

except if it's Hourglass phase 2, that's like mini-conquest in breakthrough.

[gleaming dawn]

Did they ever come out with a reason for killing voip and all chat?

[jovial jay]

and bolte users rarely use mine layer as I've seen throughout 100+ games, 80% of all the time they just sit on top of some vantage point and use the 30mm

[marble dagger]

lots of games have started doing this recently, sucks

[arctic grove]

Bolte users can suck it tbh

[naive yarrow]

playing bf4 rn on a premium only server and man the memories,infantry feels great

[scenic tartan]

@jovial jay the cluster mine is great fun

[knotty bobcat]

because you sacrifice the repair ability, so getting hit with a ntw-50 then just gimps you and makes you a sitting duck

[keen plank]

because users who want to voice chat tend to gravitate towards out of game solutions anyways

[scenic tartan]

If there were more mines placed around boltes would be less of a problem

[gleaming dawn]

lol

[marble dagger]

still sucks for those of us who just go in with randos lol

[jovial jay]

I wouldn't mind an active bolte user whp run behind enemy line to help team push, or hunt down armored with mine layer, but those who just sit there and camp can go sugondese

[arctic grove]

Half the time I play battlefield it's either with friends or I am in a call /party with friends because why talk to randoms

[marble dagger]

I've met some good friends on Rainbow 6 doing that

[arctic grove]

However I like to listen to their conversations while not contributing to it

[gleaming dawn]

I wasn't paying attention but I'm an active Bolte user AMA

[edgy oriole]

randos

[arctic grove]

Blueberries

[marble dagger]

it'd be good if you could choose language

[gleaming dawn]

Since someone complained...

[marble dagger]

it's something a lot of games are missing... primary language in squads

I'm always put in a Chinese team and I don't speak it very well at all D:

[arctic grove]

Help find me a Chinese gf k thanks

[gleaming dawn]

The thing about the Bolte is that it's really hard to use it to do anything. You're dead if a tank sees you

[keen plank]

with how squads are just slapped together, not even given time to give them proper setup or tags

[arctic grove]

I have a video of trying to melee a guy laying down and I am in a permanent takedown animation and the man won't die

[knotty bobcat]

once they fix the rubberbanding bug where you basically get stuck when a bolte or attack chopper gunner shoots at you it would be better since you can run for cover.

[scenic tartan]

@gleaming dawn I think it's best for hit and run when enemies are all together behind some cover

[gleaming dawn]

So what you do with the Bolte is, you find a ramp so you can aim the rockets up

[edgy oriole]

[white geyser]

Before BF 2042 came out, a few months ago others thought if China will return in 2042 as a main game, but I said "they're dead not after what happen to them in BF4"

[gleaming dawn]

And those rockets will hit from any range

but they're not easy to aim

[arctic grove]

I wanna fight the cat girl Nation again

[marble dagger]

man, as someone who's lived in Shanghai I really want Siege of Shanghai D:

[keen plank]

the real reason they just excluded any mention of China from the game is they wanted to dodge drama from China about the game's release

[marble dagger]

but yeah, I could never get BF4... my steam region won't allow it

[arctic grove]

Damn Chinese always ruin the fun smh my head

[gleaming dawn]

You need the Bolte to counter the planes that have figured out how to kill all armor without being touched

[marble dagger]

Hong Kong would be a fun map as well

[jovial jay]

Cpt. Bing Jilling

[hazy vector]

could be fun if you could pick up a bolte with that VTOL plane

[keen plank]

would've just been another meaningless label faction like what we got now

[scenic tartan]

Back to back lose a defense breakthrough by 544 then lose attacking on first point lol

[knotty bobcat]

as long as you stick ton the machine guns on the AA tank you can counter those planes

[hazy vector]

like you could pick up things with the chinook in i think 1943/2?

[gleaming dawn]

not since the last patch

[scenic tartan]

I have a feeling they don't want to show the scoreboard so you dont see your team had 80 kills and the enemy team had 800

[keen plank]

you probably mean BF Vietnam since 1942/3 certainly did not have helicopters

[edgy oriole]

I dont even complain about helos. i always complain about AA lock on bugs. it sucks knowing you have the tools to destroy them but its a literal coinflip on if it works

[gleaming dawn]

beeeep beeeeeeeeep

[jovial jay]

the flare bug got fixed afaik

[knotty bobcat]

i miss the blaring radio's from BF vietnam XD

[gleaming dawn]

fuck yeah

[edgy oriole]

unless youre a jet that crashes straight into the ground to run you over then cartwheels into space unharmed for next body slam attack

[white geyser]

This is why they should add BF4 in the portal, so I can take my frustration out on BF4 China in the portal and use 2042 weapons to fuck them up

Don't ask why, I'm not gonna go full detail

[gleaming dawn]

why?

[marble dagger]

yeah why?

[jovial jay]

🤔

[hazy vector]

And that's exactly why it's not in portal considering the political climate

[keen plank]

that's probably exactly what they don't want happening, for whatever reason. also the inclusion of Chinese factions probably exactly why BF2 and 4 are not going to be fully represented in portal.

[edgy oriole]

[scenic tartan]

Locking helis is still weird and off

[marble dagger]

Battle of Taipei would be a fun map 🤔

[jovial jay]

how about 2142 in portal

[keen plank]

yeah, where 2142 at

[edgy oriole]

Hardline in portal first guys. lets not get ahead of ourselves

[gleaming dawn]

no

no not that

[quartz furnace]

I can't wait until clownfield 2042 comes out

[final peak]

it already did

[hazy vector]

hardline can stay in it's own hole

[edgy oriole]

just download roblox. youll find a game just like it but better

[quartz furnace]

nah

[edgy oriole]

take that back

[hazy vector]

i thought clownfield 2042 is on steam?

[quartz furnace]

releases on the 31st

[white geyser]

They should make a 3rd option, bring all the weapons and vehicles attachment from BF4 and update it to BF3 in the portal or just remove the Chinese faction and put BF4 in the portal

[gleaming dawn]

why can't we all just love big maps and vehicles?

[edgy oriole]

we love big maps. we hate big EMPTY maps

[marble dagger]

because no-one ever picks me up and I have to huff it

[final peak]

because at round start you can't join as passenger and people rarely wait for infantry to hop in

[marble dagger]

walking for 3 minutes then getting sniped isn't much fun

[hazy vector]

because big maps for the sake of big isn't fun, that's more air superiority teritory. where you just need something to make it not look like just fields below

[gleaming dawn]

I would always pick you up bb

No but seriously, what other game has big maps and tanks?

[final peak]

world of tanks /s

[marble dagger]

Hah, just realized you're also on another server I'm on lol

[gleaming dawn]

Fuck that game I cursed once and they banned me also it wasn't world of tanks it was world of warships

[marble dagger]

wasn't that the game where people keep leaking classified info because the game is slightly wrong?

[gleaming dawn]

Those russians are extremely sensitive

[marble dagger]

swear in Russian in future 😄

[gleaming dawn]

OMG SORRY

[final peak]

found the russian one here :>

[white geyser]

I better tell DICE in order to add BF4 in the portal without climate problem, remove the Chinese faction

[gleaming dawn]

I'm sorta tempted to move to Russia

[marble dagger]

leave the Chinese faction in... why is DICE pandering to China? Aren't games like this supposed to be a reflection of real life?

[gleaming dawn]

better games, better peripherals

[marble dagger]

Russia is hard, moving to China (after pandemic) is much easier

[gleaming dawn]

why?

[marble dagger]

and loads of games/peripherals on taobao/grey markets

[hazy vector]

i'd go to japan for games i want

[marble dagger]

you used to get a 10 year tourist visa for China, and you could leave and come back in 10 minutes every 90 days

[edgy oriole]

yeah i enjoy watching pro paintball. and the russian team is having the most trouble with travel and visa.

[hazy vector]

amazing second hand retro hardware market there

[marble dagger]

so you could literally live in China on a tourist visa

[gleaming dawn]

yeah but I want to move to Russia

[hazy vector]

iirc Russians also have a regulation they can only be outside their home country for [x] percentage of the year or they loose their citizenship or something

[marble dagger]

Russia is just hard to get into, they're very strict with visas etc

[gleaming dawn]

yeah if it's not full of morons

[marble dagger]

everywhere in the world is full of morons 😛

[hazy vector]

Russia is the same as any other country, it has smart people, and it has dumb people

[marble dagger]

Northern China (dongbei) has a lot of Russian influence in it's housing etc

[edgy oriole]

i would like to do a random semester at university of moscow. thatll be dope

[gleaming dawn]

Where's the nicest region of Russia

[hazy vector]

you don't hear of the uni's in st petersburg, but you do see all the videos of "funny russian idiots"

[marble dagger]

there's a reason those that can go to UK universities

[gleaming dawn]

I mean climate-wise

[marble dagger]

I moved from the UK to China 6-7 years back

so not quite true

[gleaming dawn]

no you didn't

[marble dagger]

I did, hold on

[gleaming dawn]

k

[edgy oriole]

i have a friend that taught english in china for like 8 years.

[marble dagger]

can't put a pic in here tf

[gleaming dawn]

I mean, prison is such a harsh word

[edgy oriole]

nah hes an excavator

[gleaming dawn]

only america puts people in prison

[edgy oriole]

[white geyser]

Other worlds put criminals in prison

[marble dagger]

https://i.imgur.com/1Pp2GcZ.jpg

[gleaming dawn]

there is literally no other country that does that or eve has done that

[hazy vector]

bruh what

[arctic grove]

America is the only place with a death penalty

If it's not America it's murder

[marble dagger]

there ya go, above

[hazy vector]

are you saying that france, which had decapitation intill the 1970's didn't have the death penelty?

[white geyser]

You have no idea, how we execute our dangerous criminals

[gleaming dawn]

never happened

[marble dagger]

and China has the most executions in the world lol

[hardy stump]

ے’

[marble dagger]

so much so that they keep the actual number a National Secret....

[arctic grove]

Like a certain instance

[gleaming dawn]

sounds like Santa Claus

[languid bramble]

Am I the only one that got tired after 2 rounds , 3 max

[edgy oriole]

they crazy with it too iirc. they dont tell them when their date is they just grab em and go

[marble dagger]

Japan?

[edgy oriole]

oh is that japan. oop. im not racist.

[marble dagger]

Yup, that's Japan lol

[fiery solar]

my game stutters are multiplying in the tens

[arctic grove]

Imagine being told you are going to be released but they put you in the isekai chair

[gleaming dawn]

Anyone else wanna go against the major countries and get disappeared?

[arctic grove]

I wanna play my games

[gleaming dawn]

ok that one

[unique oyster]

reject battlefield 2042
embrace clownfield 2042

[gleaming dawn]

fire

[arctic grove]

I love being a beta tester for ea even if I have to pay money for it

[gleaming dawn]

when I say "fire" I don't mean that your fanny pack is suddenly cool

[unique oyster]

should be getting paid to play beta

[white geyser]

hmm I better update one of my custom match, to check which one I need to change

[marble dagger]

Does EA do vulnerability bounties?

maybe you can find something that really breaks and claim a bounty

[final peak]

good that I bought the premium edition with season pass included. looking forward to wait another 3 months for new content and most probably some crappy season pass rewards that by far aren't worth the extra money! /s

[gleaming dawn]

I've gotta figure that if you're still hanging around... You kinda love Battlefield

I mean, I do

So we'll see how it goes. I really hope it goes well

[warped sequoia]

me too, it's the first BF i bought and love it but some ppl say it will crash n burn

[edgy oriole]

tbh with all these bugs and annoying lag the game still feels good to me. i just cant wait for it to be fixed. i believe the foundation to a good game is here

[gleaming dawn]

I just want big boats is that so wrong?

[final peak]

and I want to have team support actions to be more rewarding, so people actually start resupply and healing

but obviously that's wrong too

[gleaming dawn]

They've been adding team bonuses since forever

[edgy oriole]

if youre a medic that actually revives there is some serious exp to gain

[final peak]

I am talking about the direct xp you get for a resupply or heal

[gleaming dawn]

you get more if you spot with the binocs

[final peak]

yea, I am, always in MVP for most revives. but in bf 1 or bf V, it felt just way smoother and you were rewarded with the xp of the amount of hp you heal

[edgy oriole]

in bfv ive actually been befriended bc of how good i was at medic. that doesnt happen in this game 😦

[gleaming dawn]

I'm waiting for the soflam to be nerfed because holy shit that's why

[fiery solar]

medics in battlefield 2042?

[final peak]

well, you can't deny that falk isn't a medic

so yes, medic in bf 2042

or was it more like "never seen some of those" ?

[tame cobalt]

No

[edgy oriole]

i believe they were going more along the lines of nobody heals. just assuming from our convo above

[tame cobalt]

Buff soflam. Make it shoot nukes

[final peak]

well, in my lobbies they get healed (if I don't miss with the gun)

I usually don't add the crate to my loadout

[edgy oriole]

my fav thing about using falck is missing every single one of my darts

[tame cobalt]

Skill issue

[gleaming dawn]

you just wait

[final peak]

yup. although I have the feeling that one of the patches already improved it

[ashen perch]

The darts are auto aim

[final peak]

doesn't ahve to be 100% accurate. on release day I had the feeling that this was the case at that time

[edgy oriole]

idk havent ;used her since i t1'd her. i t1 a hero and move on.

[tame cobalt]

Falck syringe gun is kinda poggers tbh

[final peak]

the small healpouches that just fly into any direction when spamming the button from BFV is more poggers though

[tame cobalt]

It was shit in beta when you had to land your shots perfectly and it had slow velocity and no feedback

[gleaming dawn]

Here's my prediction. Soflam gets nerfed, Bolte gets nerfed again with the forward rockets

[final peak]

true (to rush enjoyer)

I think after release, before patch 1, it was still the same

didn't have this white outline around the target friendly player that you have now iirc

[tame cobalt]

Maybe, but what they have here is a cool new version of that. It feels more... Direct, and you can get longer range heals with it

[gleaming dawn]

Here's the thing. People are using the Bolte's forward rockets to try to kill the Jets

[steady tangle]

guys is warzone any good? never tried it before

[gleaming dawn]

And it's gonna be BF2 jet supremecy (remember the j10?) if they do what I think they're gonna do

[gloomy wyvern]

Attention @ everyone

#fck breakaway
#fck manifest
#f*ck renewal

[ripe hedge]

Ohh nice thanks!

[final peak]

but for the range you have to start predicting the way the player is going to again. if it is close to a wall, not a big deal, but on open field, e.g. at hourglass rush the desert part after the first sector, it is not that easy

[tame cobalt]

Depends if you like BRs and have someone to play it with

[gleaming dawn]

Right now, there's no way to kill a jet pilot if he knows what he's doing

[marble dagger]

I still can't get used to the helis... pointing down to fire, being closed to the ground so I can see what I'm firing at... always ends me dead

[gloomy wyvern]

These are the absolute worst map layouts

[tame cobalt]

Attention @gloomy wyvern

Manifest is probs the best conquest map in the game

[final peak]

just practice

[gleaming dawn]

except with the Bolte. And again, I guarantee they nerf the Bolte again

[gloomy wyvern]

Negative, orbital is the best

[tame cobalt]

This is perhaps the best response you could have given. Well done

[steady tangle]

cod doesnt have modes like breakthrough? I dont want to loot for half an hour then die lol

[gleaming dawn]

Orbital really is the best map

[tame cobalt]

yeah warzone is just a br. Vanguard is the more normal game. Played BFV?

[tight oar]

whats the meta rn? havent played since bizon days

[final peak]

Every day I wonder when people will understand to concentrate on the single objective sectors instead of trying to capture 2 - 3 objective sectors while losing the match..

[steady tangle]

ye i played a lot of bfv so now i prefer a modern setting

[gloomy wyvern]

All three of these are too f*cking common, I get put into the queue for these maps 97% of the time

[tame cobalt]

Yeah... The multi objective sectors seem like a waste of time, strategically

[edgy oriole]

discarded and manifest best maps

[gloomy wyvern]

Remove manifest from that sentence and we can be friends

[tame cobalt]

Best 128 conquest maps

Orbital
Manifest

Special mention: kaleidoscope

[edgy oriole]

manifest enjoyer coming through
