battlefield-2042

[gleaming dawn]

I like Orbital playing as US so I can mine the exit point of the RU peeps

[tame cobalt]

[final peak]

yea and if you lose one objective of the multi objective sector, you lose sector majority (if you hold another one ofc). and defending 4 objectives (e.g. hourglass, 3 for sector B, 1 for sector A) is much harder than defending 2 objecitves (1 for A, 1 for C)

I mean, that is first grade mathematics

divide 32 / 64 players by 4 or by 2.. where can you have more people at the front?

very hard for the average bf42 player rn

[gleaming dawn]

wut

[tame cobalt]

😶

[final peak]

I didn't mean you though 😄

[tame cobalt]

the breakaway A sector is the one that doesn't make sense to me

[final peak]

help me out.. is that the oil rig?

[keen plank]

anyone else feel the 3 point portion of Hourglass breakthrough kinda dumb?

[final peak]

or on the main land?

[tame cobalt]

It's the sector with 3 flags next to the RU spawn

[edgy oriole]

oh yeah that oil rig map cool too.

[keen plank]

not really a fan of the ice portions of breakaway

[final peak]

yea that's basically what we are talking about rn

[keen plank]

breakaway being the oil rig map you speak of

[gloomy wyvern]

I'm not a fan of it at all

[tame cobalt]

It's weird cuz the Sector next to US spawn seems way easier for US to hold

[white geyser]

I spend too much time in hourglass on breakthrough

[final peak]

I think most maps have enough single objective sectors to get sector majority, but people rather try to capture multi objective sectors and lose the game by doing so

[raven yew]

hourglass destroys my xbox

[tame cobalt]

On manifest you gotta hold the two ships at the bottom

[gleaming dawn]

So I'm willing to put up with a lot of shit but killing the server browser doesn't sit well with me

[keen plank]

sector B breakthrough hourglass way too big, just backcap city

[raven yew]

that and killing of the scoreboard, it doesnt sit right with me that i cant see how well my team is doing

[gleaming dawn]

I'd rather have a server browser than a scoreboard.

[final peak]

scoreboard is fine, but as I mentioned earlier, it is kinda paradox to reduce support action rewards and remove the squad bonus, but then have a scoreboard that lists the best squads

[gleaming dawn]

But we should have both

[tame cobalt]

People don't think about it tho, that's the problem with conquest. It's fun and dynamic but most people don't think about holding majority sectors

[final peak]

it is like they say "squads or more valuable than single players, so we rank the squads, not the players" and in the same sentence "but we don't favor any squad actions anymore, all players are one team!"

[raven yew]

absolutely agree too tho

[final peak]

yea, that's why I only play rush 2042 since it became available in portal

[tame cobalt]

Yeah, rush actually feels like everyone is playing the mode as it's intended and engaging in teamwork

[final peak]

yup, gave me the classic battlefield feeling for the first time in bf 2042

[gleaming dawn]

Rush just forces everybody into 2 flags

[tame cobalt]

Well, aside from when you're on attack and you got a few melons sitting back with snipers

[final peak]

and more people understand that they should wait for revive on the attacking side

[tame cobalt]

Whatever it does, it works

[final peak]

ofc there is also always room for frustration bc of poor tactical choices by bad teams

[raven yew]

does anyone else still lose the ability to ADS after exiting a vehicle?

[tame cobalt]

Never had that

[final peak]

e.g. doing the same and always attacking from the same direction, hoping to get through somehow

[final peak]

yes, on xsx

had that several times, since they added the elves mode basically. dont know if they changed anything else server-side

[keen plank]

I get plenty of that ADS bug, too. guessing casper's drone kinda counts as a vehicle.

[tame cobalt]

and sniping from spawn when you're on attack

[final peak]

yea... although a good sniper can protect the armed mcom

[tame cobalt]

Too bad good snipers are a myth

[keen plank]

the majority of said snipers are not Stodeh so yeah

[frank stratus]

Fuck that was for instagram

[final peak]

I love the SFAR for rush. use the nade launcher with smoke to get through and arm the mcom

[tame cobalt]

[frank stratus]

Anyways.

[final peak]

then switch to incendiary nades to protect the armed mcom

[frank stratus]

if you saw you saw

[final peak]

impossible to disarm

[tame cobalt]

Oh damn didn't even think about that... You can switch between multiple epic underbarrel attachments on the fly

[final peak]

yup

[tame cobalt]

Now i got more motivation to use those ARs more, pog

[final peak]

you will be positively surprised how many kills you get by the poor lads that try to disarm an incendiary protected mcom

[fossil trench]

How do you get weapon progression in custom Portal matches?

[keen plank]

you don't.

[raven yew]

not anymore

[tame cobalt]

Kek

[fossil trench]

Yeah apparently lmfao

[hazy orchid]

is the game worth getting for 30 bucks

[raven yew]

30 bucks, yes

[keen plank]

gotta go shoot at beginner solo bots if you wanna train weapon unlocks

[raven yew]

you get what you pay for

[fossil trench]

In FFA?

[keen plank]

though rip kaleidoscope rooftop farm. but you can stort of farm hourglass

no, AOW solo/co-op. not going to get anything done in portal.

[fossil trench]

How do you do AOW solo?

[keen plank]

which is really sad, no progression in portal = practically no interest

go to change mode, should be a multiplayer/solo bar at the top of the selection screen

[fossil trench]

Ah okay

I see

[raven yew]

what do you guys think is the objectively worst gun in the game?

[fossil trench]

Probably the first SMG

[tame cobalt]

@final peak the sector at the north on discarded is another headscratcher... A two flag sector with both HQs connected to it... Fighting for it feels pointless

[fossil trench]

I forget what it’s called but it’s absolutely terrible

[keen plank]

PP-28 still has stupidly overcompensated recoil

[final peak]

hmm.. I guess you're on PC ? I only have 3 sectors on xsx, because it has max 64 players anyway

so discarded only has the two spawns + ship with 3 flags in center

[tame cobalt]

You sure you're not playing the xbox one version of the game?

[final peak]

uhm.. wait.. what? 😄

[keen plank]

in fact they made several other guns have the low recoil the pp-28 once had, but the thing itself is still nerfed into the ground

[raven yew]

wait, series X? have you been playing 64 player lobbies? because you can play the full 128

[final peak]

I bought it on the series x in ms store. so I assumed I dont have to pay attention for this one

[tame cobalt]

Xbox series and ps5 have 128 player modes as default

[final peak]

yea I though tso as well and was pissed already. bc I thought next gen should have 128 players as well 😄

[tame cobalt]

Lel

[raven yew]

leel

[final peak]

gotta check later xD

[tame cobalt]

[keen plank]

also objectively worst gun probably gotta be the VCAR

[final peak]

well, I hope it doesn't expect me to buy the xsx version again

otherwise 64 players will be it for me then I guess... 😄 not ready to pay another 100 bucks

[tame cobalt]

You probably Have both versions

[raven yew]

i actually think its good. it has its moments but its basically an smg thats stuck on semi-auto

[final peak]

I hope so.. but in the end it's still EA we talk about .. 😄

[keen plank]

I would think the XSX wouldn't even let you purchase the XB1 version like that

[final peak]

yea same

[tame cobalt]

You get last gen version included when you buy next gen

[final peak]

if it is the case that I played the xone version all the time, I wonder if graphics will bet improved as well in the xsx version

[fiery solar]

who would want to play old gen version on new gen console

do you want to wait 3 seconds every time you press the trigger for it to do something

[final peak]

I wouldn't, I just wasn't aware that this could possibly happen

can check only in a few hours though

[keen plank]

wasn't aware of it either. unless you were like playing solo or something where it's always 64 player maps

[final peak]

nope, normal AOW

[keen plank]

but if your made your purchase using the series console then the XB1 version shouldn't have even been visible

and it's not like you saw two different versions of the same thing, right?

[raven yew]

it was, i uninstalled it when the X|S enhanced version was installed

[keen plank]

so maybe they have to go install the series enhanced edition?

[final peak]

will have a look later. thanks for making me aware.
really was already ranting a few days ago about being cheated on bc no 128 players on Xsx as advertised

[raven yew]

lol

[final peak]

although I've mostly heard bad things about the 128 player modes

[raven yew]

like what?

[final peak]

being too messy, not having good server performance, etc

[raven yew]

i will say that sometimes the tornadoes can slow down your xbox and cause the game to lag, but it happens in the middle of the match and once its gone, it goes back to normal

and its not every tornado that this happens

[final peak]

and werent there also skyscrapers collapsing in the trailer?

[wild stag]

I play 128 player breakthrough in 4K on a i9 9900x and rtx2080 ti . It runs fine, capped at 60 but it holds it so happy. I think it’s just getting to that stage where you need better rigs for some of these newer games

[final peak]

because I think I remember that and was also disappointed that this never happened on my matches, same as the rocket launching mid-game 😄

[raven yew]

idk if my matches are over too quick or what but i never get to see the rocket launch or get exploded by the tornado

[ashen perch]

I think theres a big sign thing falling apart next to the buildings in the trailer

[raven yew]

that does happen, its on kaleidoscope

[ashen perch]

Ive never seen it break but i run over it broken everytime i play the map

[arctic grove]

can anyone help on how to get higher gpu/cpu usage in bf2042

[fiery solar]

you dont

[fiery solar]

play orbital breakthrough solo you get to see it launch or explode if you shoot at it while its starting the launch

[pallid robin]

Why u want a higher cpu usage

[final peak]

Just checked my library in my xbox app on phone.. you were right. I own both versions, but for xbox one version it says "start on console" and for xsx version it says "install on console" lmao

[arctic grove]

bc its low at 60%

[arctic grove]

There are devs here?

[unique oyster]

We seen cyberpunk
I guess it’s time

[spring marlin]

I am so annoyed, the game only tracks capped points for the weekly mission, so I can't unlock the skin.

[unique oyster]

I’ll probably get a series s for future games for time being

[high tusk]

Why does battlefield say it’s unavailable on epic?

[dense musk]

What's the most satisfying way to kill on 2042

[warped sequoia]

i say LMG hipfire or nuke a tank with full crew

[spring marlin]

Putting 3 c5 on a tank, then walking in front of them to get their attention, then just as they're about to shoot, you blow them up

[fiery solar]

LMG hipfire > ive only used the LMG like 4 times in the span of beta to now but hipfire kills😩

[warped sequoia]

ive been using LMG for a week now and am affraid i got addicted to infinite ammo 💀

[unique oyster]

https://youtu.be/Kg9BCt2loBw

[wet cove]

everytime i play this game i feel like someone put some dirty in my eye

[fiery solar]

no thats just the 4D feature

[silent totem]

[tame cobalt]

Headshot with revolver

[wet cove]

tossing a c5 on someone detonating it right after they kill you

[tame cobalt]

Especially when it's a tense moment where you ran out of ammo on your main gun and you're gonna die if you don't land that headshot

[spring marlin]

wait, no

hipfire headshot with revolver

[tame cobalt]

[final peak]

incendiary nades. just let them buuuuurrrn

[knotty bobcat]

using a GL with inciniary grenades, shot one into an elevator with 2 enemy's just before they closed the door...

that was satisfying

[final peak]

oh the satisfaction just thinking about that

rush on orbital, when they just approach the last sector and want to enter the construction hall using the hallways with the iron doors at the side of the building.. also a nice spot

lock the doors, so you know when they open it for a bit before they force open it and shoot your nade.. they will burn while trying to force open

impossible for the attackers to open that door when you have resupply around

[fossil trench]

Best meta right now?

They keep nerfing guns

PP has super high recoil now

[final peak]

as mentioned before, I like the SFAR. it might not be meta, but it's a solid mix and you have the nade launcher with 3 different types (due to ingame attachment change). and each type comes with 3 nades in your inventory

so once you've shot your 3 smoke nades, you still have 3 inciniaries and 3 HE for example

[dense musk]

I hate getting hit with those. But I feel like I deserved it if I died to it

[blissful hemlock]

AC-42 or PKP

[final peak]

yea the HE is the weakest one imo

I think I don't even have it in quick change. I go with smoke, inciniary and armor penetration nade

[blissful hemlock]

MP9 is also good

[spring marlin]

m5a3 with pistol ammo is good, too

[tame cobalt]

Facts

[tame cobalt]

Sounds pretty poggies

[spring marlin]

It's really just the PKP that stands out as exceptionally strong to me right now

[tame cobalt]

I gotta do that explosive damage challenge, been running soflam all week

[spring marlin]

I can't even complete the weekly mission

It only tracks captures, so I can only complete 1/3 objectives. I've done far far enough explisives damage and kills

[arctic grove]

I did it by playing 64 conquest and just gunning for the first objective by vehicle.

[spring marlin]

I have done enough

The problem is that the game literally doesn't track the other objectives for me, it's impossible to complete for me

[zealous horizon]

LOVE IT WHEN I DO 100 DAMAGE FIRST AND THEY KILL ME BECAUSE ARMOUR REALLY FUN AND BALANCED

[wide shore]

Did it in 1 round of Kaleidoscope breakthrough with Sundance’s scatter nades. Also, using a vehicle counts. Helped a friend get it by letting him be my chopper gunner.

[wide shore]

I’ll tell you what is fun.

The fact that you can get shot in the face with a tank shell, and be revived. But if a Bolte or hovercraft bump into you at 3 mph you’re dead af. That pisses me off

[still vault]

While it might not make sense my personal guess would be that it is probably something with the programming that makes 1 easier to make able to be revived than the other - perhaps something with the ragdolls as getting driven into tends to send the bodies flying.

[rich lagoon]

should i get 2042 or should i wait a bit?

[wide shore]

I mean, I get it. But it still is irritating.

[still vault]

You could just get it on Origin, play what you can within the first 24 hours and then decide:
https://www.origin.com/dnk/en-us/store/great-game-guarantee

[rich lagoon]

cool thx anything i should know about the game beforehand

[bronze sand]

It's CPU intensive. probably get bottlenecked.

[still vault]

Other stores might have similar refund policies. Think Steam is 2 hours, dunno about Epic.

[rich lagoon]

oke i get it thx

[marble cradle]

The game is bad, poorly made and empty maps, bugs, especialist that nobody likes, unbalanced vehicles, billiards weapons, little content, characters with shameful speeches and a player base falling with each passing day. Be careful not to throw money away.

[storm osprey]

This game should easily be 100k+ online but less then 20k. Thats sad. i really wish this game succeeded on launch. im truly upset and i can't even play it lol

[hidden drum]

Does turning off the hud work for the drone vision? Like the green grid or whatever you see while using drone? I havent tried yet.

[marble cradle]

Thank EA Trash, as always... everything EA touches self-destructs

[rich lagoon]

yea that's why i wana know if i should get it its definitely a buggy mess rn but what battlefield wasn't when it launched i think ima hold off on buying it maybe till feb and if its any better then ill buy it

[storm osprey]

Blows my mind how fast it became dead. i mean BF4 was one of my favorite games in my entire 18 years of gaming and was there best game and they had a bad launch and ended up getting numbers up before 2042

I have i9 9900k @ 5ghz and RTX 2070 Super and only get 40 fps on low. Its sad. But i can play everyother game 80+ fps

[marble cradle]

Postpone... Don't buy now, that's my advice, it's not just buggs, the game itself is bad, maps totally poorly drawn, literally it's not a Battlefield. I could spend hours talking about the bad things about the game, but you get the point. I believe the game will be ''good'' in 6 - 8 months or maybe 1 year. See you there, it's almost free

[rich lagoon]

O think that if they had more beta testers with standard pcs and put the game off by about a month then alot of the current problems wouldnt exist and it might not have floped so hard

[hidden drum]

Anyone?

[high tusk]

Rpg

[marble cradle]

The game was supposed to be released 1 year from now, but EA's disgrace as always wants to show their shitty investors sales.

[storm osprey]

The sad part is they said that they were 2 years ahead of development and used Covid as excuse.

[high tusk]

The games Alr tbh

Just do 64 instead of 128 the game lags

But the maps@are shit

[rich lagoon]

2 years?? dayum thats a skelly release

[marble cradle]

The maps are totally poorly made and made only for vehicles. a total garbage

[high tusk]

^^

[neat totem]

cant wait for the lawsuits soon

[high tusk]

But it is good when u have a wing suit and push an entire squad

[marble dagger]

easiest way to get to the other objective is to walk out into enemy fire, die and respawn

[rich lagoon]

I think its a good thing that maps are big but i think its bad that they should give each squad 2 small atvs for 2 people

the quads i think atvs are diff lol

[raven smelt]

I find that hard to believe I'm not gonna lie, I have i7 9700k and rtx2070 super and can play with high/ultra setting at around 80 to 90 fps my guy.

[neat totem]

with a 9700k? you're fucking high bro, are you playing 1080p

[raven smelt]

1440p

[storm osprey]

i took screenshots of playing other games and then battlefield 2042 with fps meter

[neat totem]

ok then you have 75ish FPS, not 90

[raven smelt]

FPS counter says otherwise

[neat totem]

literally every benchmark says otherwise, but ok dude you must be an insane overclocker

[raven smelt]

Sure bro

[neat totem]

better than me and I have legitimate OEM trophies, let me know your secrets to IPC OC

[raven smelt]

I have no experience overclocking my guy 😂

I have nothing to show you I'm just saying what the fps counter say

[neat totem]

ok well you might want to check your settings/numbers/what maps you're actually playing, because 90% of reviews show at 1440p ultra you'd have maybe 80 frames at a high point

[raven smelt]

Maybe it's wrong I don't fuckin know

[neat totem]

yeah, it's definitely wrong but you know I guess I wouldn't know

[scarlet steeple]

This game has a mixed bag in terms of performance, ppl don't generally lie about silly frames

[raven smelt]

I mean this is consistent across all the maps in the game

[neat totem]

I'm literally on a 9900k near-chilled at 5.2 and I'm not pulling that, so let me know how the fuck you're doing it

[scarlet steeple]

@raven smelt Goodluck!

[neat totem]

I have AMD rigs and if he was running a 5600x, I'd believe it

[raven smelt]

Good luck with what sorry?

[stark hearth]

hi

[neat totem]

I just don't like people going "IDK MY FRAMES ARE FINE" when the game is painfully CPU bound due to DICE not wanting to push graphics at all......the graphics ARE WORSE THAN 5.

[stark hearth]

\

[arctic grove]

No bf2042 giveaways for pc?

[neat totem]

it's a step backwards in every single fucking feasiable way, stop defending regression

[raven smelt]

I don't think anyone is defending the game

[marble basalt]

https://tenor.com/view/annoy-couple-upset-pissed-mochi-gif-21587795

[neat totem]

I think saying you have 90 frames and it being "fine" for a 2021 game is defensive at best

[raven smelt]

90 fps is good?

[arctic grove]

I have 3600 16gb should I upgrade?

[neat totem]

the graphics are worse than third-tier shooters made by no-name studios, 90 fps is not good for any shotoer on the BEST hardware you can buy.

[scarlet steeple]

❤️

[queen prism]

U cant count players on steam + EA origin we dont know how much ppl play it + console ofc

[arctic grove]

My gpu is fine 3070 at 2k ~ 165Hz monitor

[marble basalt]

❤️

[neat totem]

if you have a 3600, upgrading to a 5600 would help quite a bit

[arctic grove]

he's talking about his ram, not his cpu

[arctic grove]

r9 5900x ? or r7 5800x? ohh my fucking budget

[arctic grove]

Both bro

what mobo do you have?

[arctic grove]

b550

I have a 5800x, just be aware its a toasty chip lol

[daring pawn]

If this game tries to make me play hourglass one more time, imma go insane

[neat totem]

I'd get a 5600x and ride it out

[arctic grove]

you may have to update the bios on your mobo to support 5000 series chips, so just check that

[arctic grove]

I already updated my bios

[neat totem]

the new shit will be out and steamroll this stuff; AMD has already said the next one out is 20% better fps or some dealio

[arctic grove]

similar issue with me, i7 10700k, rtx 3070 both overclocked and 40fps no matter the settings... gpu usage remains at 40% and i have to upscale the resolution to 4k for my gpu to be properly used @neat totem

yeah 5600x should be fine

[daring pawn]

I’ve been queuing for the past 10 minutes trying to get any other map than hourglass

[final peak]

Well, it is an extra gadget, so the player who picks the armor misses other perks like rpgs, crates, etc.

[arctic grove]

Guys please ping if there is any giveaway

[final peak]

So it is not unbalanced

[arctic grove]

I wanna try the game on my rig s

[daring pawn]

I FINALLY GOT A MAP THATS NOT HOURGLASS, THANK GOD

[red crag]

Man I hope we get a lock on AT launcher that doesn't require SOFLAM lock to work

[crisp fossil]

hey guys. hows it possible to play only BC2 in Portal? There was a featured modi but its gone now. And i cant find any servers with people playing in the serverbrowser

[spark field]

If DICE dropped father of time skin tomorrow would you quit or no?

[uncut bay]

jokes on you i already quit

[frank stratus]

Santa boris.

[spark field]

Damn

[uncut bay]

it just isn't fun, nothing to do. I'm waiting for season 1

[spark field]

Lol if you drew that nice drawing

[frank stratus]

i drew it

[spark field]

If the game is still alive by then. I'm really hoping

[spark field]

Nice bro you are pretty good

[sonic oar]

Looking for people to play along with. Casually, ik a parent so sometimes children interfere. I’m Dutch but both Dutch and English is ok. Playing on Xbox one.

[scarlet steeple]

Go play Not Ready or Not

[neat totem]

I'm pretty sure anyone who is remotely competitive is already out the door on this one, I've been in more lobbies with people just standing spawning afk that it's absolutely an example who SBMM exists in games

[uncut bay]

was just about to lol

[spark field]

I truly don't know if this game can survive that long I mean March is far away I just really hope it does.

[scarlet steeple]

❤️

[neat totem]

this game is dead by the end of January, calling F2P by July

[scarlet steeple]

Good more players

[neat totem]

F2P AOW, paid Portal

so they can shove operators down people's throat for money

or "to speed up the unlock process" from some abysmal shit like 1 every other week

[heady wind]

s1 is in march? no way

[somber galleon]

yup

[wild stag]

If you don’t like it bro go play something else, bf3 and 4 both had terrible launches and now are great. I’ve been having loads of fun on 2042 racked up about 200 hours it’s fun. Shooting people with tank rounds/sniping/unloading lmgs at mass groups getting loads of kills. It’s just another bf game.broken at launch will get better over time

[heady wind]

wonder if the game will survive until then

[austere stone]

not f2p but EA Play/Gamepass

[uncut bay]

that's exactly what i did. Won't stop me from discussing the state of the game though

[marble cradle]

Congratulations, you deserve the ''cow'' seal of quality. You are the fanboy who thinks it's normal to launch a broken game for 70 dollars. And as if that were the only problem with the game , the game is bad in all aspects , score 2.2 on metacritic , worst rating from steam and you come here talking shit like the game was great .

[dusky blade]

Numbers are in folks

There around 65,000-70,000 players online probably

[marble cradle]

If you think it's okay to pay 70 bucks on a shitty game like that broken and sloppy, keep it to yourself, but don't talk shit about it.

[austere stone]

is this copypasta?

[wild stag]

@marble cradle calm down son, didn’t say it was great in fact I said it was broken like 3 and 4 on release, also said I was having fun on it. Just don’t see the point in bitching about it, just get refund and play something else? I can’t stand cod since mw2 but don’t jump in their discord to slag it, I just do t go near it.

@marble cradle chill bro

[marble cradle]

I hate comments like ''It's broke now, but it's going to be good in the future'' Oh my God, it's a 70 dollar billion dollar game. The game has to come well done out of obligation, and people think it's normal to release a shitty game

[wild stag]

Same as 3 4 and 5 how did anyone expect different

[marble cradle]

EA is a shitty company where everything it touches destroys itself. And it's like that with Battlefield, it was like that with Dead SPace, Need for SPeed, Dragon Age and everything will be like that with this company garbage.

[slow mulch]

Its not just EA that does that though. Most games coming out are broke. Not saying that it makes it ok, but maybe were just hating too much on one specific game and not the industry as a whole?

[wild stag]

Ever since early access every developer has thought fuck it release now update later

[arctic grove]

Hopefully EA/DICE reads this 🙏!!!!!!! If EA/DICE keeps working on fixing battlefield 2042 they still have a chance of turning it around. The core gameplay of battlefield 2042 is really fun and addicting but it’s missing a lot of things like scoreboard, VOIP, balance of vehicles (too many vehicles at once), more weapons and possibly gadgets, more maps (at least one new map per season or two to keep game fresh and exciting), a variety of different game modes, improve performance for players, reduce bugs and glitches over time, more ribbons and achievements to work towards to, add more cover in certain parts of the maps that are very empty space, improve ranking system by returning back the legacy ranking system , “recruit to general”, like battlefield 4 or battlefield 3. Lastly, HIRE DEVELOPERS that are big fans of battlefield, passionate employees will do way more work and better. 🙏

[marble cradle]

EA is the most hated gaming industry. See what she does with her franchises and you'll have your answers.

[slow mulch]

Maybe an independent game development watch dog is required. One that has powers to fine Dev companies that don't release a game at a certain standard?

[uncut bay]

if this was purely EA's fault Battlefield would've been run into the ground a decade ago

people love to shit on EA and excuse their beloved DICE, forgetting that this happened because of the combined short-sightedness of EA and DICE

[heady wind]

its not about how broken or buggy the game is, its about the gameplay itself. this title is nothing like previous titles

[hearty parcel]

That part that is bad is that you accept it.

Why wouldn’t you DEMAND a finished product when you hand over $$$.

I’ll build you a house as long as you give me time to make it right. But you have to pay me in full, upfront, in cash.

[marble cradle]

What do you mean by destruction? Destruction is not just about ending the franchise and making it insistent. Do you think the current state of Battelfield is good? What is good about Battlefield's current moment? If this continues, it's only a matter of time before the franchise becomes a Dead Space or Dragon Age

[uncut bay]

okay you're trolling lmao

[pallid citrus]

Hey everyone. What are people talking about?
oh... same conversation as every day

[marble cradle]

... The same conversation every day , because the game sucks and costs full price and there are people who think it 's normal . So what's the problem with remembering every single day that the game sucks, poorly made and hastily released to show off EA's bullshit investors?

[wild stag]

@hearty parcel I said what else did you expect? I’m not the one moaning lol. Like I said I’m having fun on it, it’s just another bf game….. fuck me you must all be tearing your hair out. Chill ffs

[slow mulch]

Yeah, people are still venting off. Venting off's fine, but eventually it has to get a bit stale. We need something more constructive. Like a signed open letter to the industry with the backing of gamers in unison? Dunno, i'm not really a revolutionary - just wanting something more contructive to move forward with

[obsidian pasture]

Even if the game is not finished I believe it will be a very great game after a few uptades

[pallid citrus]

i'm enjoying it pal. I thought most people who join the discord are here to play the game.

[slow mulch]

I know the gaming community has won in cases like this before, swbf2 as the example

[marble cradle]

YES... You paid 70 dollars on an incomplete shit game so that 1 year from now it's good for half the price you paid. Congratulations

[manic cradle]

Bf1 servers still alive?

[radiant echo]

In Europe yes

[manic cradle]

Pc Europe?

[wild stag]

@pallid citrus that’s why I came here not to see all the moaning

[heady wind]

its in sale right now tho

[arctic grove]

anyone else getting unable to connect to ea servers?

[manic cradle]

Yea 35$

[obsidian pasture]

Ok but you just have to be smarter why buying the game instantly without knowing the issues ? Ok the hype was great but I think it's more interesting to wait to see the argument about the game. But I agree with you that the game price is to high for now, and there is a lot of problem. The game is sometimes unplayble.

[wild stag]

its in sale right now tho :KEKW: 😂 true

[slow mulch]

BTW if someone with a sensible head wants to do something more constructive like using change.org?(or similar) Then i'd be happy to put a signature to it.

[marble cradle]

What I always say is that... I can't be people who think it's normal to pay 70 dollars on a game like Battlefield 2042 so that 1 year from now the game is good. You lost money for 1 year, you could use it for something else or even another game that is well done. People can't think like that, even more of a shitty company equal to EA

[marble cradle]

And free days .

[wild stag]

Also every AAA game these days is broke cost £50 and needs constant updates to fix it, it’s not just ea and bf games

[slate meadow]

is game fixed now?

[strong snow]

Yep!

[slate meadow]

so true AAA should be given after the game release not on previous merits

[arctic grove]

I think if someone starts a petition that is legit done well to get the shareholders attention with over a million signs, I’m sure they will take action to fix their game and future releases done right

[marble cradle]

I really don't mind that a AAA game comes with a few bugs, nothing that gets in the way of the experience too much. It happens ... The games these days are more and more complex , but come totally shit and poorly done like BF 2042 ? I do not accept

[arctic grove]

Remember; investors don’t like political attention or media scoping on them

So a petition will get their attention

[obsidian pasture]

I completely agree with you, I don't understand the people who doesn't mind buying a game that has a lot of issues 70 dollars

[slow mulch]

yes, but, is it aimed at soley EA or the industry as a whole? Smarter people than me need to think on that

[wide shore]

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a change.org petition ever actually do anything ever.

[neat totem]

I love how I'm playing battlefield and half my team is like "I'm at work just alt tab playing when I'm not working", this is such riveting competitive gameplay I'm so excited to see what else DICE shits out

[obsidian zinc]

wouldn't it be cool if someone documented the development of a game and released that documentation with the game after release?

[obsidian pasture]

Can someone explain me what is AAA game ?

[wild stag]

@marble cradle if your that arsed about £50 than maybe you shouldn’t be gaming it’s an expensive hobby, I spent £4000 on my pc and don’t regret it or care. You came into this world with nothing,you leave with nothing, what have you lost? Nothing🤪

[neat totem]

literally just braindead afk people playing games because EA couldn't make proper matchmaking

[marble cradle]

high investment game

[obsidian pasture]

Ok thanks

[neat totem]

I've seen more console players just go afk in my vehicle than fucking any other video game

[obsidian zinc]

that would offer a lot of insight.

[wide shore]

People going afk is nothing new

[arctic grove]

The first few days weeks people vent hard asf but I think after a while people should just relax bcuz EA/DICE already understands, no point in being annoying and a big fat cry baby

[wild stag]

Cyber punk!!

[neat totem]

"should just relax" as this is the second fucking time EA has bait and switched consumers, including a lawsuit for the last time

[wild stag]

Only a couple of bugs but still playable 😂😂😂😂

[wide shore]

There is nothing in this game like SWBF2’s controversy.

[arctic grove]

Well, if you really want to speak your voice make a petition or some viral YouTube video, not here dude. Nothing will change

[neat totem]

sorry some of us want better than a cold fast food meal for airport prices, we have standards and every single fucking time someone mentions buying a battlefield on launch I'm going to link them both 5 and this

I'm fine posting in here every so often and just making it known I'm discontent with what they are doing to a franchise me and my friends have played competitively in some sense since 2004

if they want to ignore it, it's fine, there's plenty of other publishers making 2042/1942 clones, and it gives me a reason to uninstall EA play and never go back

[arctic grove]

I think if someone makes an extremely dedicated and promoted petition that raises votes I can guarantee you that it can catch the media’s attentions, if you pay a PR journalist or company, which you can, I’m sure it will go viral

[tame cobalt]

Nah.. people who play the game are playing it. People who want to cry, go to reddit and discord

[slow mulch]

@arctic grove or a streamer who isn't afraid of backlash from devs.

[neat totem]

people who play the game? dude the population is sub 50k two months from launch on a free fucking weekend. Might wanna take those rosetinted glasses off my dude.

[scarlet steeple]

This

[tame cobalt]

Any askers?

[wide shore]

I am curious. If you know how shit BF games are at launch, and you’ve already been burned by BF launches in the past, then why would you buy this game at launch? To some extent, you should’ve known.

(I’m not excusing the state the game launched in, but fool me once…)

[arctic grove]

The game is fun, just needs improvements. The only reason I’d be concern is if they don’t fix and improve their game but yeah I’m upset too that they didn’t release a polished game as well

[neat totem]

I participated in the testing and was basically lied to early on I feel

[tame cobalt]

Kek

[neat totem]

all I'm saying is we were told SEVERAL times it was "due to outdated builds", and I think they were just absolutely fucking lying to cover the GM or something

no way you would have tested a legitimate FPS that way at all

[wide shore]

But this has happened before, and you state you are aware of this. But you bought it anyway. Some of the blame falls on you too

[neat totem]

so you're going to blame the consumer for buying a lemon car? tall mental gymnastics there, Cotton.

[scarlet steeple]

Playing the test too, and feeling 40fps on 3090 and then seeing the official trailer showing 30fps already told me, beware. Still bought and now enjoy it. You should have just known what you getting into. Trusting EA regardless? Your fault.

[neat totem]

sorry I had faith in a company that had at one point made reputable products? Who during private testing told me to not worry?

[final peak]

that point was decades ago

[neat totem]

I'm not and didn't refund the game and I could have, the point still stands EA tried to fleece people with this shit

[arctic grove]

Lol

[wide shore]

I already said I’m not defending the state the game. But you stated “DICE have done this twice already.” But you bought this game at launch, with prior knowledge of Battlefield launches. To a degree, you should’ve known what you were getting yourself into.

[neat totem]

if I was mad about the money I would have done so right away, it's more a principle thing and yeah, I won't be buying any EA title on launch regardless of how close to testing I was

[scarlet steeple]

Exactly

[arctic grove]

Once again, arguments and comments are for noobs lol 😂, like go start a viral video or do something that has “leverage” that actually makes a change. Complaining here won’t do anything, I’m sure if people knew how to voice their opinions in a marketing fashion that gets medias attention, I’d be impressed.

[marble dagger]

I just got kicked to the menu for seemingly no reason

[tame cobalt]

Spawned with the pump shotgun without slug ammo on hourglass

Haha I'm in danger

[arctic grove]

OMG!

[marble dagger]

??? We were losing but still, tf?

[toxic stratus]

[coarse hamlet]

Battlefield

[slow mulch]

@wide shore Are you affiliated in anyway with battlefield or the industry?

[wide shore]

Also, I do not feel bad for anybody who bought this game expecting them to remove specialists after the beta.

[wide shore]

No. I’m just a fan.

[wide shore]

“I’m gonna buy this game I know has specialists in it. Something I’m not a fan of, then I’m gonna complain the game has specialists.”

[ashen perch]

I dont see the problem with specialists 🤷‍♂️

[wide shore]

People don’t like change. Even if it offers more gameplay variety.

[ashen perch]

Im happy to play medic with anti tank

[arctic grove]

Same. But if they could split them between RU/US would be nice

[ashen perch]

Yeah some skin variants would be cool

[wide shore]

“There’s no teamwork” boi, medics ignore me just as much in this game as they did in previous titles.

[minor holly]

Vanguard >

[scarlet steeple]

I'm happy to play lmg and medic yeeee. Tho it would still be cool to have the CHOICE of choosing normal AI looking class soldiers.

[arctic grove]

They look mint!

[scarlet steeple]

Very much so ❤️

[toxic stratus]

Is trash, Yh we all know.

[wide shore]

Thanks for your expertly crafted, insightful opinion.

[foggy crest]

👍

[river trench]

Anything>vanguard

[minor holly]

Vanguard is the most innovative yet fresh installment of a ww2 era game and crushes battlefield 2042 in every single comparison

[toxic stratus]

No one asked

[scarlet steeple]

[foggy crest]

and they were not ahead of schedule

[final peak]

imagine comparing two games with different playstyles / gamemodes. it is like saying Forza Horizon 5 > Super Mario

[minor holly]

My bad I did typo I meant bugfield 2042*

[river trench]

Bf1942 portal > vanguard anyone agree?

[arctic grove]

[wide shore]

Yeah, innovative. That’s what I’d call it. Not an abortion of the source material, and endless creation of cursed gun images.

[river trench]

[toxic stratus]

Minecraft > vanguard agree?

[wide shore]

[minor holly]

Vanguard will sell more copies than battlefield fun fact

[hot lynx]

Vanguard is an abomination of a war world 2 game. Boy I remember back when M1 garlands had futuristic camo with drum mags and still clinged when running out of ammo

[final peak]

when the vanguard 128 conquest mode with aircrafts and ground vehicles works better than the one for bf 2042, then I would agree with you.. oh wait..

[wide shore]

It’ll never sell more than Minecraft though.

[river trench]

This dude tryna defend vanguard did u even see people opinion on it?

[mental finch]

That’s barely fair tbh

[minor holly]

As long as it sells more than battlefield it’s mission is complete

[arctic grove]

BF2042 sold more even before it was released lul

[final peak]

bf target group has never been the same as for cod

[minor holly]

It takes its crown as the best fps game ever made

[hot lynx]

My guy is STARVING for attention

[final peak]

and it always sold more than bf, so, who cares. it is just different games

[wide shore]

Sales=/=Quality

[toxic stratus]

Cod players these days lol more toxic than bf players

[wild stag]

😂😂😂 no one cares about cod lol it has sucked ever since mw2

[wide shore]

Assassins Creed sells super well and those games have been shit for like a decade.

[wild stag]

^😂😂

[minor holly]

Sales = superior quality fun fact

[hasty phoenix]

you guys are being trolled and it’s cringe af to see you feed it

[ashen perch]

Always a good idea to feed the trolls

[hot lynx]

After black flag it’s all been downhill

[minor holly]

Fun fact bugfield 2046 has 70,000 negative reviews on steam, cod vanguard, 0 😂😂😂

[wild stag]

No it don’t sales=good marketing not necessarily a good game

[final peak]

wasn't it always like that? If I think about cod, I think about a very immature and younger aged target group that legally isn't actually allowed to play it. If I think about bf, I think about an older target group and bugs. that's just how it is and always has been

[hasty phoenix]

bit weird you think of kids mate

[wide shore]

Oh yeah? Well no battlefield video has any thumbs down on YouTube.

[hasty phoenix]

that was a joke don’t get down bad

[minor holly]

That’s how most of battlefield players are they like to think of kids

[final peak]

lmao.. I'll give that one to you

[hot lynx]

This dude thinks about kids

[hasty phoenix]

bit too late mate jokes already been said

[minor holly]

Fun fact battlefield users like to think of kids when they play

[hot lynx]

Does it look like a care bro

[foggy crest]

Scary

[hasty phoenix]

you were funny at first but can you shut the fuck up now?

[final peak]

okay calm down, I changed it

[mental finch]

[slate meadow]

do you guys think bf2042 should have been a free to play then we would have been abit easier on dice/ea for the state of the game?

[minor holly]

Fun fact anime pfps opinions don’t matter

[dusky blade]

True

[hasty phoenix]

POG

[dusky blade]

What’s even worse than anime pfp’ sis animated ones

[hot lynx]

Not worth $60 for sure, maybe like $40. Free to play games just means everything is locked behind paywalls

[hasty phoenix]

poggette

[minor holly]

TRUE

[safe crown]

I dont have either vanguard or battlefield 2042, but in my opinion I will choose battlefield because it feels more like a war

[wide shore]

[minor holly]

[toxic stratus]

Must be a fan of bf if ur in here as a cod player

[minor holly]

I am a fan of the last good battlefield 3 yes

Everything after is dumpster fire

[safe crown]

Every battlefield is good

[slate meadow]

man i feel even£40 is abit much for how little content there is in the game maybe £30 but the fact some paid £100 for it is crazy

[toxic stratus]

Bf4 last best one

[foggy crest]

🤣

[wide shore]

I mean I’ll agree 4 was a dumpster fire. But BF1 is a masterpiece

[mental finch]

BF1 overrated af tbh

[high tusk]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/763496649498427446/923202306701402162/unknown.png anyone know how to fix this

[fringe vault]

I am confused as to how someone can like BF3 and not like BF4 - pretty similar, almost identical, both awesome.

[minor holly]

Based

[hot lynx]

Bf1 was kinda garbage with its progression system

[high tusk]

anyone know how to fix this?

[wide shore]

It’s only overrated now. There was very few of us adoring it when it was in its prime.

[tame cobalt]

Hourglass conquest US side is EZ if u just hold the 3 single flag sectors... Especially if the enemy team is idiotic enough to not try and take them from you

[hot lynx]

No because I’m not clicking that link

[high tusk]

its a discord link its ment to be imbedded but the image wont show up vbcs i dont have perms

[mental finch]

I really liked that game, I just never liked it as much as I like 4, or any of the modern titles really

Aside from the original Xbox port of BF2

[scarlet steeple]

BF3 had this wonderful thing called Close Quarters :3

[scarlet steeple]

There 'were' very few.

[mental finch]

I thought I wanted BF to go back in time, but I sorta find it just limits my options to play

I mean, I sorta like BFV a little more than I like BF1 tbh, Ik I’m the minority, I just get more enjoyment out of V

[final peak]

war pidgeon from bf1 still best infantery game mode

[hot lynx]

Same

Bfv is incredibly fun

[wide shore]

It felt like a breath of fresh air after like, what, 6 modern games in a row? The WWI atmosphere, I know gets talked about to death here. But it can’t be overstated imo. It just felt so different. The visuals and upgraded engine. Everything was so heavily stylized. It definitely was a much simpler game compared to its former titles, and I can see why some people felt it was too casualized. But I fell in love with BF1 more than probably any other shooter I ever played. There was just something about it I’ve never seen replicated, and I doubt I ever will again.

[mental finch]

It’s very fun, don’t get the massive hate for that game. Am I a fan of the modern UI? No. Do I like that you play as characters with names? No.

But other than that, it’s a good game, and I really liked the character customizer

[marble dagger]

is there a quick key to tell a medic not to come revive me (due to a sniper looking right at my downed position)?

[wind pawn]

hold space

you're character screams NOT SAFE, DO NOT COME TO ME

[marble dagger]

that kills me though, right?

[tame cobalt]

First image of first dlc map has been datamined (very low resolution) https://twitter.com/temporyal/status/1473639466761920514?t=haH4SQRsbxlDkOdJtrGa_A&s=19

[high tusk]

anyone know why my game aint showing u[p on the epic games launcher and ive tried opening it on orgins but it wont laod as i bought it on epic games so it have to load via epic games store

[wind pawn]

yeah, but you can spam tap it if you dont wanna redeploy

[marble dagger]

I see, just figured someone might take care of the sniper within 30s

[tame cobalt]

Looks like we getting another golmud railway 2.0 type map bois

[mental finch]

I get that, I do

I just find that Modern BF titles, though there’s a number of them

They all change enough, and add enough, to where they never feel like the same game. And there’s something about a good Modern BF title that can’t be matched by any other modern shooter, the array of vehicles, classes, gadgets, and overall options to play are so vast

And that’s what I personally find lacking from BF1, but Being a Medic in that game was fun as hell, and that’s honestly my biggest ask

Make it fun to be a medic, and I’m a fan of that BF to a degree

[wide shore]

Kinda reminds me of heavy metal from BC2.

[tame cobalt]

Looks like it's gonna be a pretty map

[mental finch]

YES

I WAS HOPING IT WOULD BE A FOREST MAP

LETS GOOOO

[hearty parcel]

People that defend companies bad behavior and then try to justify it by saying “it’s buggy but I’m having fun” are what allow this to keep happening. Demand better. Vote with your wallet by not rewarding shitty development cycles and buying incomplete games.

[mental finch]

Forest maps in BF truly hit different

[tame cobalt]

Well, wouldn't exactly call it a forest map

[mental finch]

It seems to have a forest though

[tame cobalt]

Ye, some forested areas

[scarlet steeple]

Gee, I wonder where it's posted

[wide shore]

It really reminded me of heavy metal immediately

[radiant echo]

That looks like Harvest day

[mental finch]

See, that’s what I mean

I don’t mean like the Forest from BF1

I mean more like Caspian Border

[wild stag]

@hearty parcel read all my comments before you address me sonshine! Not defending it just saying that’s the way it’s been for the bast bunch of bf games and nearly every AAA release. And yea I am having fun on it done over 200 hours so fairly happy with my purchase. Sure as hell not gunna cry over it and attack every ones comments?🤪

[tame cobalt]

Give argonne forest 2.0

[mental finch]

That is just outdoor metro…. The idea of it in this game scares me

[tame cobalt]

GIVE

[wide shore]

You know, it kinda does now that you mention it.

[tame cobalt]

But from that image, safe to say the first map isn't gonna be the infantry focused map people are waiting for

[wild stag]

Harvest day didn’t have wind turbines that’s heavy metal it was the largest ever bf map back in bfbc2 days

[desert elbow]

Damn seems cool

[radiant echo]

It is heavy metal

[wide shore]

The image I posted was heavy metal. But the image from Temporyal’s leak has a harvest day vibe

[tame cobalt]

The first couple maps are gonna be maps that were mostly designed before they got player feedback asking for infantry maps, so might be a couple seasons before we really get some infantry focused maps

[wide shore]

As long as the map is cool, I don’t care if it’s primarily infantry or vehicle focused. You can have both.

[tame cobalt]

but ye consider me hyped for EXPOSURE

[tame cobalt]

💯 Just want a well designed map

[wide shore]

Iwo Jima is a great example of having both.

[wild stag]

@wide shore it does but also looks to be on the side of a mountain/valley

[tame cobalt]

and orbital

[frank stratus]

you ppl are so competitive in BF meanwhile me: runs around

[wide shore]

Hell, I’d even argue Orbital and Manifest do too

[wild stag]

Looks nice

[livid sequoia]

whats the problem?

[tame cobalt]

But ye i like the colors of the map,

[coral kraken]

Playing rush on metro would make me happy 🙂

[tame cobalt]

Map looks pretty flat on the image tho... Yall think there might be a point in that valley?

[coral kraken]

Low strafe runs through the valley

[naive yarrow]

true

[tame cobalt]

What if that Facility in the distance is massive and the entire map is in there and the rest is just background decoration

[hidden ore]

Will helicopters always be able to fly higher than jets or is that gonna be fixed soon?

[coral kraken]

Could be like that one map on bf3/bf4 where you jump off the mountain to get to the other objective (rush)

[tame cobalt]

[dusky blade]

That’s breakaway

[naive yarrow]

i will say i did overhate the game too much because it wasn’t even that bad

[naive yarrow]

davamand peak ?

[jaunty geyser]

Wat would you guys say is the best weapon in the game rn

[tame cobalt]

All

[quasi marsh]

lol is it true that bf2042 will have the first content in like 3 month??? The game would be dead at that time.

[coral kraken]

I think so cause you would start on a ledge on a mountain and it was like a cliff if you push hard enough the next set of objectives would be on the ground and you’d have to jump off lol

[naive yarrow]

ak24,pkp,svk,pbx

[tame cobalt]

even if it's dead the marketing and hype for season 1 will resurrect it (fact).

[naive yarrow]

yea that’s davamand peak,we all thought that map was coming back lmao and turns out it was breakaway

[quasi marsh]

lol... NOOT

[coral kraken]

Oh … break away is not close

[tame cobalt]

(FACT)

[quasi marsh]

sure dude

[tame cobalt]

All they have to do is hype up metro in portal... EZ revival

[coral kraken]

Yeah facts all the platoons

[naive yarrow]

yup,it’s the that one spawn in the back that only sundance players(myself included) use to fly across the map

[naive yarrow]

metro,locker,and make a new infantry map and boom,and pls jus add them into the main game rotation or make portal xp viable

[tame cobalt]

Aircraft who don't try to cap E on breakaway are dumb

[fringe vault]

Regardless of all the people who claim the game will die or be dead, it won't be. Just like BF4, it will be a slow and painful start, and then become a solid unit and be enjoyed by many. Even now, with not much content, and while lacking scoreboard/stats tracker etc, a good enough amount of people still play and enjoy it. Even more people will buy it at discounted price etc.

[quasi marsh]

The fact the DICE said that it will be Criterion Games that will take over the updates for BF2042 is all you need to know

@fringe vaultpaid actor 🙂

[coral kraken]

Is this good or bad?

[mental finch]

I literally have a whole group of friends that’s going to end up getting this game, well, that sort of depends on if they add a server browser or not, but I’m just going to assume that they will… For the help of my sanity

[unique oyster]

so now tanks can brake to drift

[quasi marsh]

lets just say that it was DICE that kept BF4 for updates

[mental finch]

Yes I get it, there’s a server browser in portal, that’s not what I mean

[tame cobalt]

No one said that. Back your bs up with a source

[quasi marsh]

@tame cobalt why are you crying over facts? are you a antivaxxer too?

[coral kraken]

I thought respawn was taking over

[toxic stratus]

Where’s the facts like?

[tame cobalt]

DICE is continuing support for the main 2042 portion of the game.

[mental finch]

Site your sources before making an ass of yourself

[dusky blade]

For some reason

[coral kraken]

I am a anti vaxxer, I have not gotten Covid in the past two years

[tame cobalt]

Give a source big man

[quasi marsh]

the facts is that if DICE gives away THEIR title to some unknown devs, should raise some red flags

[fringe vault]

I am not a paid actor, I am just a BF fan-boy since Bad Company 2. I am just objective, and don't hop on the trend-train of people hating on 2042 to an unreasonable end. I agree it was a crap-show just like BF4 at release, but even worse. I acknowledge the many issues needing to be resolved. Just saying the game is good enough to enjoy, and regardless of the trendy train haters, many of us will still play the game and enjoy it.

[mental finch]

Yes…. Because EA wouldn’t be the one in control of that

You need some education on this topic tbh

[dusky blade]

I am anti death and still haven’t died yet

I will never die

[quasi marsh]

but the problem with all this is people like @tame cobalt who loves giving fake into

[tame cobalt]

You know it was DICE LA who supported bf4 right? Not DICE as you claimed?

[coral kraken]

Live long brother 🙂

[quasi marsh]

nice google search bro

[tame cobalt]

Didn't search shit.

[quasi marsh]

why toxic bro

Bye clown

[wind pawn]

tis is the only message i can find from you relating to searching

[coral kraken]

Yeah!

[lethal tangle]

Bye Felicia

[wind pawn]

also claiming to be a senior engine engineer

[mental finch]

For anyone who really just feel for that bait

Don’t

[wind pawn]

dude just got blasted by the entire chat for his bullshit

[coral kraken]

I mean why claim that, was that supposed to give him a status boost

[wind pawn]

idk man

[coral kraken]

It was so random

[mental finch]

He wanted an excuse to not site a source, and he wanted to wind up the chat while he was at it

That’s all that was

[wind pawn]

welp, imma go farm out the the attachments for my 12m auto

cya guys

[coral kraken]

We need a starboard to pin that guys reply

[arctic grove]

nah thats just him flexing his image perms

[snow vortex]

🤣

[arctic grove]

Map rotation is so cursed yesterday was 247 renewal now its 247 hourglass

[unique oyster]

kena bridge of spirits

[arctic grove]

Un ironically got hourglass 5x in a row now when matchmaking wtf

[still vault]

Random is random, statistically that should happen at some point if you play enough, so why not now?

[merry hollow]

People dont realize random means random and just because they just previously played that map they can get it again because its RANDOM

[scenic igloo]

LMFAO

I love probabilities. That's why I hate calculating them and say "It's all random at the end of the day"

[merry hollow]

Hello fellow gold edition buyer

[scenic igloo]

Hello, my fellow... Dyl

[merry hollow]

I also am A gold edition buyer

[scenic igloo]

Oh, cool!

[merry hollow]

No

[scenic igloo]

What you mean? Did you regret it?

[merry hollow]

Currently i do hopefully in a few months i don't

[scenic igloo]

I pre-ordered and I think the game can be good after some sprucing up (performance, net-code, especially after being hit by chopper rounds. bugs, UI, legacy features, all the basics)

[merry hollow]

Exactly

[scenic igloo]

Same here. Game's running like a potato on my PC

[merry hollow]

Its not necessarily running like that for me i mean its no near up to Par as I'd prefer but its more about the lack of features the clunky gameplay the horrible UI buggy mess for me

[scenic igloo]

Even Battlefield V runs at 60 FPS on my rig and that game was optimized with almost no lines of code

[dry wigeon]

u still playing this shitgame?

[still vault]

I calculate the chance of getting the same map 7 times in a row to have a 0.0001214266 percent chance of happening.

[scenic igloo]

And when Exposure happens that number will be even bigger

[shrewd creek]

bring the infantry only map in that fucking game

[scenic igloo]

I miss Locker BS. Hopefully it comes to Portal in the upcoming seasons

[foggy halo]

I got the same map at least 3 times. Then I waited for a short time, and I got a different map.

[still vault]

oh wait, it was only 5 times in a row, change that to 0.0059499 percent chance

[scenic igloo]

Oh

[scenic igloo]

I don't know. Most of the time I'm just getting Manifest and Kaleidoscope

ESPECIALLY Manifest. I almost never get Breakaway

[subtle iron]

is Kaldiedoscope the one set in south korea?

[scenic igloo]

Also, isn't it just weird how Breakaway seems to be more optimized than smaller maps like Kaleido?

[subtle iron]

its mostly open snow

[scenic igloo]

Yes. Big buildings, annoying in Breakthrough before patches. That one

[subtle iron]

that map is pretty bad ether way

[scenic igloo]

Yeah. I personally prefer Orbital over Kaleido tbh

Orbital has the cool rocket launch and tornado is awesome there

[still vault]

yes https://www.ea.com/games/battlefield/battlefield-2042/game-overview/maps#kaleidoscope

[subtle iron]

Orbital is one of if not the best maps

[arctic grove]

Kaleidoscope is easily my least favourite - orbital is actually really good

[scenic igloo]

Breakaway is immense as heck! I love it!

There's a zipline that takes about a minute to cross!

[arctic grove]

Ice doesn't break with explosions 2/10

[radiant echo]

I love this map

[scenic igloo]

That makes me miss BF1, stop

[arctic grove]

I know I'm sorry I do it to myself too

-bf1 theme quietly plays-

[scenic igloo]

Hourglass is stupidly boring too if the sandstorm doesn't happen

Even then it is a pretty boring and lengthy map

[arctic grove]

Sandstorm should be constant - it doesn't affect visibility for some reason, but it makes the map look 🤌🤌🤌🤌

[scenic igloo]

Agreed

Manifest is a decent one. I quite like it. They did a good job with that map

Only some parts should have a bit of infantry cover but still, I like Manifest (besides performance issues I have there)

[arctic grove]

I really hoped the maps would be more dynamic

More containers being moved around constantly, trailer made it look like a levitation event scattered containers like lego

Biiig let down

Levolution*

And discarded looks like it was designed to flood at some point like floodzone

[scenic igloo]

For the rest... Renewal is OK. I don't mind it. Visibility is kind of 8/80 there because of the green gardens. Discarded though I don't really like. Full of open areas and only good when you're in a chopper or tank

[scenic igloo]

It looks like it was supposed to be a bad map for infantry, that's it

[craggy marten]

I remember when people (more specifically, youtubers and streamers that got early stuff) said that Orbital was the "worst map compared to the others" before the game came out.

[scenic igloo]

They were wrong as H! I quite enjoy Orbital. I think they said that due to Orbital sickness from the Beta

[scenic igloo]

Hey! I'm ready if you are!

[arctic grove]

I've learned that the opinions of YouTubers and Streamers is borderline meaningless so

Prefer to make up my own mind

[subtle iron]

ANGEL DOES IT AGAIN

[scenic igloo]

That was something, right!?

[arctic grove]

God don't

[craggy marten]

And Orbital is the map with the most relevant levolution compared to all the other maps somehow, although it barely affects anything in the map outside of NO ROCKET.

[scenic igloo]

And halving the entire population of Charlie 2

[arctic grove]

Still cool - but I see what you mean, like I said I thought every map would be 10x more dynamic

And we got the most static BF game yet

[gusty jasper]

Wait you're telling me you don't like playing on giant flat rectangles?

Orbital is also best map, glad I'm not crazy

[arctic grove]

I do when they think about where they put the giant rectangles

Dawnbreaker and Siege of Shanghai cough cough

[gusty jasper]

Atleast those maps had something called density

[arctic grove]

Not to mention they used the same skyscrapers on Hourglass and Kaleidoscope as well which BF4 didn't do

[arctic grove]

Even though they were quite open, there was lots of non destructible cover because they actually thought about gameplay lol

[gusty jasper]

Siege was balanced for all playstyles

[arctic grove]

Can i change fire to R1 console

[gusty jasper]

It was the best vanilla map in BF4 next to Zavod

[arctic grove]

Zavod was 🤌 where did that map design talent go

[slate mist]

yeah it would be in controller mapping or something similar

[arctic grove]

I can make better maps than these on unreal

[gusty jasper]

Like it combined aircraft, boat, infantry, tank and somehow didn't feel overwhelming

[slate mist]

favorite map in bf history

[gusty jasper]

Very impressive map design let's be honest

[arctic grove]

Most BF4 maps were good in their own right - golmud is the closest we have to 2042 maps

But even then its clear they thought about it more - all the hills on Golmud would be gone if they made that map now

[gusty jasper]

Ehh... The vanilla maps were mostly shit but dlc def improved

[slate mist]

the only way you could play as infantry on golmud was in the town

[arctic grove]

I would sit on a boulder with a LMG and just spray random people, no matter what range, I'd shoot you

[slate mist]

what lmg was ur favorite in bf4

[arctic grove]

That's pretty much where I ended up all the time

Even once it was completely destroyed it played well

[arctic grove]

Been so long i cant remember lmao, lemme look at the list of guns

Campaign unlock LMG has to be said

[slate mist]

no no its fine

[gusty jasper]

Lancang Dam, Rogue trans, Dawn breaker, Golmud are all ass

[arctic grove]

Idk about ass especially when you look at 2042

Had good games on all of those- I do enjoy vehicles tho so

[gusty jasper]

Well ofc, they're stellar compared to 2042

[arctic grove]

@slate mist mg4 and PKP

[earnest verge]

I want road to Jalalabad, my all time favorite map

[arctic grove]

You lot are just making me want to play BF4

[slate mist]

yeah the mg4 and m240b were mine

[arctic grove]

Best meme loadout was the f2000 with a bipod

F2000 shouldn't be used at long range?
Me: hold my beer

[celest pumice]

Tried 2042 during the free weekend\

was very disappointed

[pure basin]

Welcome to the club

[subtle iron]

buy it next year it should be better then if you want to get it ofcorse

[celest pumice]

I'll keep playing Battlefield 4 lol

[pure basin]

When does the week reset

[gusty jasper]

Game is ass, but breakthrough 64 players was actually somewhat "enjoyable"

Why is this shit limited time?

[feral saffron]

When are they adding Platoons!!!!

[gusty jasper]

Platoons was fucking sick

[subtle iron]

its a legacy feature

[feral saffron]

What does the MEAN!!!

[subtle iron]

legacy

[earnest verge]

it means they removed everything we want and say its not needed for a game

[feral saffron]

🤭 so not costumer first got it

[arctic grove]

They removed so much shit

[subtle iron]

now your a legacy feature

is this discord channel finally at peace

[gusty jasper]

REALLY IS THAT ALL YOU GOT? IM READY FOR ROUND 2

[subtle iron]

shit

[earnest verge]

make second account, say game good, bring popcorn

[feral saffron]

Peace with the fact that this game screwed multiple communities hobbies.

[subtle iron]

EA never cared about you

[gusty jasper]

Wait....did you call battlefield, the ultra realistic gritty serious no kiddy shit shooter... A hobby? Do you know who you are? Do you know who the fuck I am?

[feral saffron]

But my feelings hurt, someone write their congressman about EA

[earnest verge]

we still have our old games, i reinstalled most of them, they alive and well

[subtle iron]

BATTLEFIELD IS LIFE ITS THE ONLY GAME THAT'S GOOD NOW

[feral saffron]

Same but most were looking forward to jumping to a new game, BF4 is fun buts it’s so old hard to recruit new members

[gusty jasper]

Nah, you came for the throat bud and I'll let you know I ain't putting up with this bullshit. You've yee'd your last haw, bud.

[earnest verge]

agreed, but it is what it is at this point

[feral saffron]

If you are drunk and play 2042 then who care a

[subtle iron]

now is this shit at peace

[gusty jasper]

WELL WELL WELL...

[subtle iron]

god dammit some ones typing

[gusty jasper]

THAT WAS FUN

[subtle iron]

if phar0 is still here 5 minutes later and this channels not at peace I give up

it really is YAY

[round garden]

Im sorry but is anyone working on bf2042 or does just nobody care?

[subtle iron]

atleast the peace lasted for over 5 minutes

[subtle iron]

The devs are wroking on 2042 and some new season should bring more content

[round garden]

2.4k watching bf2042 on twitch last night the game is super dead

[subtle iron]

battlefield games aren't normally popular to watch on twitch so it is expected

[round garden]

The season has been delayed for 12weeks

[frosty gorge]

I mean it is dead, but twitch is a REALLY bad thing to use to judge that

[glossy storm]

According to Tom, only 65K - 70K are playing 2042 worldwide at the moment.

[whole gazelle]

This game is very very dead but I joined this server because me dum dum

[round garden]

How do 4 studios release a game in this state can anybody tell me that?

How does that even work?

[subtle iron]

is has something to do with covid and less experienced devs

[frosty gorge]

fuck knows man, fuck knows, game is fun, but fml is there just no content and it can be buggy af sometimes

[feral saffron]

COVID made that game

[round garden]

Pretty sure it doesent

[subtle iron]

it does

[glossy storm]

Watch Tom Henderson's breakdown of 2042's development.

[median cipher]

buggy a lot of the times...up down glitch exiting vehicles, no parachute when leaving copters, hit reg, clipping issues. Game is dookie.

[frosty gorge]

Covid defo has an impact, but this is a combination of environment factors like covid, and new devs, but its mostly just god awful gameplay choices by the head offices

[round garden]

Bro everything that comes out nowadays is a broken mess

[glossy storm]

It's not really the studios that should be blamed, IMO. It's EA and team leaders at DICE who pushed for this title to chase trends and have microtransactions.

[frosty gorge]

not everything, but most things unfortunately I agree, games dont come near finished anymore, idea is to ship out a beta and it takes 2 years for it to be "finished"

[round garden]

THE BF1942 CHARACTERS DONT EVEN MOVE THEIR MOUTH ON THE END SCREENS

[glossy storm]

Microtransactions was inevitable, but this identity crisis was unexpected.

[glossy storm]

The end screens are themselves an atrocity.

[median cipher]

I mean, DICE is the studio. This game is a mess - and it's a mess all the way down.

[blissful pond]

2042 originally was gonna have earthquakes, tsunamis and volcanos (according to tom henderson). he said the game needed another year to add those things

[frosty gorge]

Agreed, the devs defo have a impact in some cases, especially when it comes to bugs and glitches, but most of the issues are from those higher up, such as the lack of a class system, bloom, gameplay choices etc etc

Still dont know how there isnt even a public API or even a way to check stats in game ffs, its just disappointing

[subtle iron]

I would be happy to wait another year for those things

[subtle iron]

but its to late now

[frosty gorge]

I just hope Season 1 update is fucking excellent or this game will actually die

[subtle iron]

yea if the update isn't god tear then the game will be dead within 6 months

and thats fairly conservative

[frosty gorge]

was gonna say, even that is optimistic lol

[cosmic radish]

Most people stopped complaining just quit the game already

[subtle iron]

for me I enjoy the game but it will get boring a few months if this season update isn't game changing the game is more or less dead in the water

[frosty gorge]

Nah I like the game, its fun and they have been doing excellent updates so far, got really high hopes, that said there are many things they could do RIGHT NOW to improve a lot of issues, like release the API for public use (or at least limited use for some stats websites), using the community to create content such as player cards etc etc, and ffs please just make everything 3x as expensive for hazard zone, those credits are so useless

[cosmic radish]

I quit a few weeks ago when I was level S022 or something cause just NOTHING to grind... no rewards either. It's not that the game is polished and has content.Some stupid missions you can complete in 1 match is not worth it

[dusty raptor]

bf2042 is good change my mind

[frosty gorge]

it isnt good, but it has the potential to be great

[grizzled spindle]

Good is probably the right word. Brilliant? No. But good is spot on, I’d say.

[marble orchid]

battlefield 2042 lacks content in it's already barren maps]

[frosty gorge]

I'd say its on the "Alright" side atm, with a few more changes/fixes and the addition of 5 or so weapons and vehicles and some more maps and modes it could be "good", with a few months of updates as good or better than what we have got already, it could be one of the best BF games, if not best FPS games made

[pure basin]

Datamined map sounds like op lock I’m looking forward to this

[proud rivet]

not trying to be a downer, but its player count already dropped to 48th on steam chart, almost fall out of top 50 lol

[frosty gorge]

Yeah they got the game to the state it should have been in the beta now, give em a month or two and it should be where it shouldve been on release, just seems like they are 3 months behind on development atm unfortunately which means its kinda stale

[wind pawn]

just bring me a close range map ffs

need locker or metro so i can use my 12m auto

[jolly sail]

I don't need a weather simulator, I need a battlefield

[spark field]

Anyone else know there is a cap for xp in normal modes like breakthrough? It told me I reached it.

[night vessel]

Did the new weekly mission out yet ?

[wide violet]

Bring back Bad Company 2 levels of destruction

[spark field]

Why is the game saying I reached cap? What is the xp cap

[gusty jasper]

I could honestly careless about weather, gets old in a week

[spark field]

Omg 😆 I just realized I was fighting AI I'm a dumb ass

[violet sluice]

But they told us they we're "way ahead of schedule".

[spark field]

The game switched me to co-op mode and I was fighting bots with not even knowing I had like 75 kills damn I'm an idiot

Welp that makes sense now.

[fossil trench]

What’s with the huge FPS drops?

FPS regularly drops to 0-3

I’m on PS4

[arctic grove]

most popular bf4 gamemode? there are like 2 types of conquest bruh

[proud rivet]

thats not a bug, its a feature lmao

[fossil trench]

I crashed a helicopter and my screen froze. Great game DICE

[proud rivet]

to give your ps4 a moment to breath, to cool down

[fossil trench]

It’s definitely not that

[arctic grove]

anyone?

[spark field]

Anyone have you ever had the game crash on you and when you launched it back it auto put you in co-op mode with AI. Like I mean the setting was put there. So you play bots without even knowing it.

[fossil trench]

First time playing the game since the new patch. First I blue screen trying to open the game and then my game freezes when I’m playing

[clever gulch]

Huge influx of hackers in Asia Servers

[fossil trench]

Advanced AI difficulty is actually pretty good

[torpid shuttle]

I miss this joke...
#battlefield-2042 message

[spark field]

I spent literally 30 minutes looking at bots with the SOFLAM and because I reached the cap when I thought I was in multiplayer I didn't get a fraction of the XP I would had gotten if I was playing multiplayer 😆

[glossy storm]

I miss the time when reactions weren't disabled.

[torpid shuttle]

Do you mean emoji or something?

[spark field]

But my point is I thought I was fighting player's dripping 75 kills I thought they was just bad 🤣

I cringed so damn hard after I realized

[torpid shuttle]

I don't play around 1 week... Is this game good as BF2 or BF3?

[jolly sail]

how

[frosty gorge]

ye ngl HZ AI is kinda clapped if they catch you off guard

[spark field]

Because I thought I was in multiplayer but it was against bots

Imagine thinking You're good when fighting bots

[glossy storm]

I don't get it: Why are people with roles like 'Rural' still allowed to react to messages when others can't?

[spark field]

It isn't that deep

[torpid shuttle]

"In our first year of live service, we will deliver four Seasons, with four Battle Passes, four new Specialists, along with more fresh content."
Source https://www.ea.com/en-gb/games/battlefield/battlefield-2042/faq

DICE: RELEASE SEASON 1 ON MARCH

[urban olive]

hope "along with more fresh content" means maps, guns and missing features 😰

[torpid shuttle]

DICE: Do you mean skin? Yes we will do it.

[urban olive]

😿

[icy agate]

pls get rid of c5 on drones

[tranquil turtle]

No

[visual oasis]

Is this game worth getting?

[urban olive]

I think it's kind of funny but maybe 1 max on it

[tranquil turtle]

It will remain in the game and be obnoxious, like bf4 ucav

[tranquil turtle]

If you want a battlefield game, no
If you want a decently fun hero shooter, yes

[violet sluice]

Depends on how much you hate yourself.

[tranquil turtle]

I would not buy anything past standard edition

[tranquil turtle]

I hope "fresh content" means reintroducing commander mode

[drowsy sapphire]

Why are you in November 12th

[violet sluice]

You're a comedian.

[night vessel]

it says that if your not playing official servers

[spark field]

Yes I thought I was playing multiplayer 😆

[torpid shuttle]

Because... I use DIY time machine to travel the future and now I see BF2042 really fk up. So I try to tell everyone.

[torpid shuttle]

Wrong it's 11 November.

[drowsy sapphire]

More like traveling the past

[torpid shuttle]

Before Early access 1 day.

[drowsy sapphire]

I said November 11th but then changed it to November 12th since that’s when the message it lead me to was posted

[glossy storm]

This.

[torpid shuttle]

If you like to play heroes shooter and CoD 2042, go for it.

[drowsy sapphire]

I would say yes, but so many other people don’t like it, just buy the game and try it for yourself and if it’s fun for you then keep it, if not then refund it

[gusty jasper]

Or just pay 5 bucks for the trial

[torpid shuttle]

Wait for 2 years and get this game for free.

[drowsy sapphire]

This game was $40 just now, just get 2042 and if it’s fun for you keep it

[violet sluice]

I'd recommend waiting for 24 months for the next game. By then EA/DICE will have learned some lessons. /s

[drowsy sapphire]

Probably won’t be a new battlefield

This one is probably getting all the content

[torpid shuttle]

Well from the Tom leak news. The next BF still be heroes shooter but upgrade version.

[violet sluice]

It'll be an episodic singleplayer game where each episode is a different specialists story.

[drowsy sapphire]

The next battlefield is probably like 3-5 years which is just IF they want to make a new game and not have all the content in 2042

[proud rivet]

EA? learnt their lesson? HA

[median cipher]

don't even get points for hacking a vehicle? Trashbag game.

This game literally asks you to avoid helping your team and just go for kills and assists.

[drowsy sapphire]

Supposed to make it easier for your vehicle to get destroyed, and keep you from killing enemy’s

I’m guessing you’ve been hacked in vehicles too many times for happiness

[median cipher]

I'm playing as RAO right now. Hacking vehicles takes them down for what, 5 seconds?

meanwhile, I get no points for hacking said vehicle, unless it spots enemy, and I still get torn up. Trashbag design.

[torpid shuttle]

For disable vehicle function for 5 seconds.

Vehicle go away...

[drowsy sapphire]

Yes 5 seconds

[glossy storm]

The thing I'm gonna avoid if I ever play 2042 is melees.

[tranquil turtle]

There are 2 knives, but a bit more in portal

[cursive canopy]

can we please get an infantry only mode?

[tranquil turtle]

The takedowns are bad 💀

[proud rivet]

if the hacking actually disable vehicle mobility then its some what usable, but just makes it cant shoot for 5 sec is completely useless

[cursive canopy]

its amazing how out of touch dice are with the fans

[drowsy sapphire]

It’s nice how season 1 comes out in march

[drowsy sapphire]

Mmm nah, not sure what you do to hacked enemy vehicles but it just helps for blowing them up, which I haven’t tried throwing C4 and then popping it… might be more useful then the M5

[earnest verge]

Atleast one more map in 3 months gonna save the game

[median cipher]

Here let me pick you up, so I can sweep your leg and put you back on the ground, lmao.

[glossy storm]

I'm now starting to doubt Vince Zampella. If he takes 2042's direction further towards Apex, then there's gonna be a problem.

[tranquil turtle]

Just knife and take dog tags bruh

[proud rivet]

well, if the hacking disable vehicle mobility for like 5 to 10 sec, either you shoot it with m5 or help you teams out so people can sneak up with c5s

[torpid shuttle]

Do you think, this game will be abandon like BFV?

[median cipher]

That's all well and good, but 5 seconds to clear distance in this game is ridiculous.

[proud rivet]

right now if you hack it, they can still run away and back up again in 5 sec

[earnest verge]

or u go batman, fly in from above and drop them with 0 chance for counterplay

[median cipher]

like, most vehicles play perimeter, so you can't get close enough to kill most times. I don't get assist points for it anyways when they DO kill it. Trash design is trash.

[proud rivet]

again, still makes hacking completely useless

[drowsy sapphire]

No need to sneak, just run towards it and throw the C4 on to the truck/tank, and yea the dude will probably try running you over, but you can just dodge

[tranquil turtle]

Just put 3 C5s on the back and detonate

[earnest verge]

well you can also activate those things at the tunnel on kaelidoscope if some 1 happens to be driving with a blindfold outside of the are where anything happens

[proud rivet]

they can just drive away, you gonna catch up to a vehicles by foot?

[drowsy sapphire]

I’m just saying the hacking isn’t useless, I’ve done some great plays with it, I don’t know how you guys play and what you guys do when a enemy tank/truck is hacked in front of you, but it’s a helpful tactic

[proud rivet]

ah, yes, useful on 2 tunnel that exist in the entire game

[drowsy sapphire]

Depending the area they are in, and how many people are already shooting M5s at them, they won’t last long 😁

If they run and you have the M5, no need to run

[median cipher]

I'm asking to get some kind of recognition for helping take down a vehicle. Not getting anything right now still points me firmly in the avoid vehicles at all costs as infantry class.

[earnest verge]

yes, and as if any infantry would ever be there to begin with

[tranquil turtle]

Most gunners are incompetent and take shots at helicopters 700m away instead of guarding the rear of the tank like they're supposed to; you can just run behind them and blow them up without them even noticing

[glossy storm]

Probably.

[median cipher]

100% it gets abandoned after season2 I bet. "TO focus all our energy on the ahead of schedule next BF game!"

[earnest verge]

If they make more money selling skins than they lost losing players, then 100% no

[gaunt thunder]

Should i buy 2042 now ?xd

[torpid shuttle]

If this game on Steam has positive score more than 70%

[earnest verge]

nono remember its only reddit trolls rev bombing, game cant be bad

[torpid shuttle]

Game current stage is disaster.

[cursive canopy]

doesnt bfv have more players now

I keep getting put into matches that are nearly done

[earnest verge]

nono we are just entitled consumers

[unique oyster]

unfortunately imo it actually is bad

its cyberpunk level bad

[earnest verge]

thats unfair to cyberpunk, this game is the worst out there if u expect even remotly something similar to a battlefield experience

[unique oyster]

barely feels like a battlefield game

[earnest verge]

cause it isnt

[unique oyster]

i can turn off the hud and show a casual gamer and that person is gonna think its new cod game

[earnest verge]

actually been thinking real hard about this, the only thing i can relate to battlefield with this game is that it has conquest

[lost pilot]

cyberpunks and battlefields failures are different but also similar

both released with a bunch of bugs, BF worked bad on PC and Cyberpunk did horrid on consoles

the issue is that cyberpunk didnt come with its promised core features when the game launched, and bf2042 simply lost its core features and or replaced them making them fundamentally bad

[urban olive]

I thought the launch of Fallout 76 was bad, till I got BF2042

Both very buggy games, from buggy known developers, but ones way more fun as a whole

[noble ruin]

Reject Battlefield embrace Clownfield

[unique oyster]

rao literally sounds like stereotypical call center dude

[lost pilot]

he literally looks like a stereotypical indian guy in a call center

[bleak ferry]

I love to play bf2042

[unique oyster]

hardly ever hear specialists speak in their native languages

[marble dagger]

when I spawn in the tank, I lose my primary gun when I get out is this normal? I literally can't get to it (it goes pistol, through the other stuff, back to pistol) and pressing 1 does nothing

is there something preventing my from taking my gun with the tank or smth?

[unique oyster]

even the trailers had sundance screaming in french

[lost pilot]

this is a known glitch

get in and out again

[drowsy sapphire]

Probably not think that because Call of Duty isn’t as good as Battlefield lol

[marble dagger]

Ah, sorta difficult when you get out because your tank was about to explode

other vehicles work too?

[bleak ferry]

Culo

[foggy crest]

Because COD is better

[lost pilot]

possibly but the fact this glitch wasnt solved makes it weirder

[bleak ferry]

Cod is better than call of duty

[marble dagger]

seems to only be the tank for me, other vehicles are fine

[foggy crest]

Yes

I noticed one glitch with Boris on breakthrough that's kind of irritating.
If you try to place a turret down after losing a sector the game will not let Boris, this is like them disabling the wingsuit after you lose it..

[slate mist]

cod is delicious

[lost pilot]

yeah its just an unsolved glitch

[drowsy sapphire]

Well it may be fun for like a week or 2 then realize Vanguard has the same exact game modes as every single other Call of Duty

[marble dagger]

Got it, painful and annoying

[foggy crest]

BF also

[drowsy sapphire]

Yea battlefield has the same game modes, with different huge scaled maps, VEHICLES, many guns and much stuff to love

Vanguard has small maps, and no vehicles of course cause it’s small scaled maps for simple team deathmatch

How is Fallout 76 at its core?

[lost pilot]

battlefield used the same formula but it came out different every time to keep its gaming community happy for fresh stuff

COD is just like a copy and paste at this point

[unique oyster]

well i tried to do that and that exactly happened

[glossy storm]

Without the bugs, that is...

[drowsy sapphire]

That’s what I’m saying 😅

[unique oyster]

had to tell its battlefield which made them get shocked

[urban olive]

It's kind of awesome now, but very past its prime
