[tranquil turtle]

Steam reviews are as bad as subreddit posts

[fierce gull]

[surreal crystal]

Bye

[torpid shuttle]

[naive quiver]

80,183 bad reviews on steam 😂😂

[surreal crystal]

[naive quiver]

Hold moly this game is amazing

[steep skiff]

I'm just going to sit and watch until I see something interesting mentioned

[tame cobalt]

Sounds kinda cringe bro

Try uninstalling the game and getting a life

[fiery zenith]

cringe is playing casper drone all game

[fierce gull]

droning in conquest is cringe but in breakthrough is better

[steep skiff]

🤓

[tame cobalt]

Ste*m 🤢

[fierce gull]

Ratio + im not overconfident im just better than you

doesn't steam take up like 15% of the playerbase

[torpid shuttle]

"Oh no BF 2042 is so amazing. DICE ignore the negative review becuz they juat troll and too toxic. "

80183 reviewers is trolling and toxic...

[tame cobalt]

Also WTF IS THIS SUPPOSED TO MEAN? Halo lost 70% of its players, every fucking game does. The fact that 2042 is still doing so ridiculously well despite all the outrage going back all the way to BETA is much more noteworthy than a typical decline in players after launch.

[torpid shuttle]

How can I check playerbase from Origin or Epic?

[tame cobalt]

You can't

[surreal crystal]

U cant

[steep skiff]

Yeah but we can draw a pretty accurate estimate that out of 100,000 players only around 30,000 like the game. Not to mention half of those positive reviews just make fun of the horrible game design so more like 15,000/100,000 like the game. It's called estimation and I'm sure it isn't bias.

[tame cobalt]

Yeah this is just stupid

[surreal crystal]

Lets make the impossible possible

[steep skiff]

Agreed, it's pretty stupid no one likes the game.

[surreal crystal]

Tone is missing in the game. Its not serious and gritty

[steep skiff]

Even for $40 the game isn't worth it. Unfinished product and people still bootlick it.

[tame cobalt]

No it's pretty stupid to keep acting like a machild when the only impact it has is to have negative impact on the devs mental health. Game is performing just as well as any other aaa launch but you only see what you want to

[steep skiff]

Oh Ok... Battlefield 2042 is the best game ever. Other competitors aren't shit compared to this game. Even roblox isn't better than this.

[pale pumice]

wtf is this arguement

[steep skiff]

[tame cobalt]

So you have no counter, dope

[surreal crystal]

Counter this ratio

[fierce gull]

i can't believe this game got an outrage because of a santa skin

[surreal crystal]

Rightfully

[steep skiff]

I love how there's no scoreboard, only 22 weapons, maps without any unique design, unfair weapon balance, and I love the new meta system developed with operators. For a AAA game studio this is the best game ever, definitely better than BF3, 4, and BC.

[tame cobalt]

Can't expect more from a community of manchildren

[old mantle]

u mad cus u bad lol

[fierce gull]

people were saying battlefield was a realistic game 😂

[surreal crystal]

Haha

[steep skiff]

At least we don't bootlick. I'm a battlefield fan and even I know when a game is bad. Dude just cause you like battlefield doesn't mean you have to say the game is good. I wanted it to succeed just as much as you.

Its a pure let down.

[surreal crystal]

Relax guys !!

[naive quiver]

😂😂 We are not arguing, we are talking about the problem of the game right ?

[surreal crystal]

Game will become good !! Relax and be positive

[naive quiver]

https://tenor.com/view/drunk-kitten-cat-speechless-desperate-gif-10726499

[fierce gull]

reminds me of other bf titles

[steep skiff]

Totally, they're already on the right track with the next season update in 4 months.

[surreal crystal]

Yeah its sad we need to be like this but it is wat it is

[south gull]

The thing that matters more is are the changes going to warrant people coming back to play again

[fierce gull]

maybe

[steep skiff]

They lost me, I'm not buying another game. Apparently their next game is a fucking hero shooter.

[tame cobalt]

Population will spike, don't worry about it fam.

[fierce gull]

if they add things like metro to portal hat can bring back players

[surreal crystal]

[south gull]

Yeah if the next battlefield is a hero shooter I'm not planning on supporting that

[old mantle]

You will not be missed

[naive quiver]

if they could get the basic stuff fix in season one I would like to give battlefield 2042 positive review

[steep skiff]

I'd rather player BF4, that playerbase is still active.

[tame cobalt]

If only anyone cared

[naive quiver]

But not at the moment 😂😂

[arctic grove]

people are still defending this shit

[steep skiff]

ItS tHe BeSt GaMe EvEr! WDYM

[arctic grove]

yall oding on some copium

[tame cobalt]

Too bad your reviews don't matter

[steep skiff]

Hey, if they get their shit together and actually fix this game, maybe I'll buy it again. That refund was definitely worth it at the time being.

[arctic grove]

too bad the damage is already done and battlefield is dead

[fierce gull]

battlefield died a long ago my friend

but unfortunately not cuz people will buy the next battlefield

[tame cobalt]

Battlefield is alive and well, played it tonight

[steep skiff]

100,000 players down to 15,000 within a month 💀

[urban skiff]

Merry christmas but still fuck bf2042

[fierce gull]

bf4 went like 0 players to 0 players within a month

[steep skiff]

yo Merry Christmas

[south gull]

If they reorganize the specialist system to be more of a class based system where the specialists are different play styles, lock guns to certain classes, boost the list of maps, guns and specialists then maybe I can see more potential, though this is also suggestions I've heard flakfire say as well

[tame cobalt]

Fake news bf4 is and always has been a perfect game that cured my entire family of cancer

[fierce gull]

it cured world hunger too

[steep skiff]

the BF4 reviews are making fun of 2042 lol

[silk surge]

"lock guns to certain classes" fuck no

[surreal crystal]

Not many guns to lock them to specific classes but specialists can be restricted

[fierce gull]

no thanks I want my medic to shoot a heli with a launcher and revive me after

while the heli is falling down and makes an explosion when it touches the ground 😎

[tame cobalt]

Yes, but then bf1 came and brought it back 😔 and now 2042 is out here creating super covid

[arctic grove]

https://tenor.com/view/jack-tanamen-gecky-incorporeal-gif-21102682

[steep skiff]

Ah yes, teamwork thrown in the trash. Hey if you like it then that's fine. Ruins the point of communicating with teammates when anyone can be their own 1-man army.

[fierce gull]

rarely saw teamwork with classes only saw assaults

[south gull]

In that case then they should reintroduce the medic kit back into the assault class like they did in bf4

[toxic arch]

#screenshots-and-clips

[south gull]

And bring back the engineer class

[steep skiff]

No idea what you're talking about. Whenever I played (depending on the map) everyone would divise themselves into classes that would support the team.

[fierce gull]

ok buddy

[wide shore]

So I can be an engineer nonstop again? No thanks

[steep skiff]

I remember in BF1 having all medics and we didn't lose a single point in breakthrough lol

[wide shore]

Not having an RPG in a game with this many vehicles is a death sentence.

[steep skiff]

BF1 was different, but in a good way :)

[surreal crystal]

Movement was so nice in bf V

[south gull]

Kinda sad how they added the last dlc though with no operations

[wide shore]

A shock operation on Somme and passchendaele would’ve been incredible

[arctic grove]

for real

[steep skiff]

Agreed. It was really cool how they didn't go too extreme with historical accuracies but still used a few easter eggs and unique vehicles that we're relevant at the time.

[south gull]

Could you imagine a Dunkirk operation in bfv?

[arctic grove]

bf1 is like, steampunk au ww1 lol

[steep skiff]

The B1-Ter was so cool. I didn't even know the tank was that big until I saw it in game.

I forget did they have Argonne forest in BF1? (nvm they did I hated that map)

[arctic grove]

that tank is so fucking fun to play in, i also love the fighter plane and the little anti infantry darts in it

i loved the map :(

[steep skiff]

All I used was the BAR, didn't even have to aim

It was so fun

[surreal crystal]

I played a round of breakthrough on iwo jima god it was so nice !!

[tame cobalt]

Funny how the negative steam review accounts keep playing the game for hundreds of hours after their review

[steep skiff]

yeah that map was great

[steep skiff]

We'll they wasted their money, should at least try and have fun. That's what I would do lol

[surreal crystal]

Especially the last sector on the mountain

[fierce gull]

[arctic grove]

they all decided to at least try to have fun in portal, i bet none of them have touched the main game since they wrote the review

[steep skiff]

Also most of these have less than 20-30 hours played

[arctic grove]

lol

[steep skiff]

Portal is cool, but tbh I'd rather play the actual game than play a cheap rip-off with half the content missing.

Except 1942 I never played that game before lol

[arctic grove]

id rather them just port 2142 to console and call it a day

[wide violet]

ive been wanting this since 09 lol

[arctic grove]

they did that so people would play aow with specialist so people will buy skins down the line

Can dice like not throw me in a match when it’s 30 tickets left pls

they could have totally done the bfv level customization in 2042 and no one would have said anything, its fine, its a modern shooter, youre not fucking with history

[steep skiff]

Finished a game? Back to the lobby instead of requeuing :))

[arctic grove]

ooo that sounds great

[steep skiff]

nice emoji

[arctic grove]

[steep skiff]

about to watch the new Matrix

I heard Neo doesn't even hold a gun in it ...

[arctic grove]

its garbage

I guess green screen it is then

[edgy oriole]

Christmas update is fire.

[arctic grove]

i completely forgot this discord existed

[arctic grove]

Literally

me and my friend play it on xbox series x and we don’t like it tbh, doesn’t have the same feel as bf4, bf1 or bf5 but we can’t put our finger on why

[naive quiver]

😂😂 another complaint start now

[arctic grove]

but thats our opinion *

[arctic grove]

bc the game is poorly rushed

[shut galleon]

if i cop the new gen console, do i have to rebuy the game?

[burnt kettle]

not if you own the cross gen version

pretty sure gold edition + ultimate get it for both?

[craggy marten]

Funny, i've encountered more of these screens in Spider-man PS4 than in 2042.

[arctic grove]

in bf1 or bf5 there was music and atmosphere but in this there’s no such thing

[shut galleon]

ive only been playing on 64 players so im leaning towards i dont own that one

[arctic grove]

I never had that when playing Spider Man

[arctic grove]

you playing on ps4 or xb1? i wasn’t clear sorry

[burnt kettle]

Xbox one plays 64 players. You'll need to check which editions you own.

[craggy marten]

I always got them when they were introducing the challenges, tokens, all those scenes

[shut galleon]

xb1, and I bought the preoder one, 99% sure it was the gold edition. Came with early access and like 1 year of the season pass

[burnt kettle]

but as far as I am aware, I bought the gold edition and got both series x and xbox one edition. Not sure if standard has the same option.

[arctic grove]

i should imagine you have cross gen version

[burnt kettle]

yeah you should own the series x edition then

[shut galleon]

[arctic grove]

make sure it’s the same account on your new xb obviously

[tender pilot]

is Battlefield 2042 anticheat any better?

[shut galleon]

im kinda reluctant for 128 players tbh but we'll see tmrw

[marble orchid]

Game hasn't had any new real content either. But the playerbase will be much lower if the soonest we get content is march of next year

[arctic grove]

Weird

[edgy oriole]

All I touch in 2042 is 128 breakthrough

[craggy marten]

Conquest sucks in this game

[shut galleon]

been a conquest slut since bf3

[arctic grove]

honestly i’m unsure, bc the other day i encountered a lvl 11 who hit headshots with the sws all game, & a few other players called it out as well

and we all came to the assumption there was cheating involved

[craggy marten]

Even with 64 players the capture time is slow as hell due to it thinking its still with 128 players.

[tender pilot]

but is it like battlefield v bad, i mean the servers

[arctic grove]

considering we don’t have a scoreboard, idk lmao

[tender pilot]

oh shit, forgot that
i hope they add a scoreboard in the future though
kinda ridiculous

[shut galleon]

[arctic grove]

i’m praying they do

[shut galleon]

legacy feature innit

it'd be nice to be able to switch squads, not get stuck in a 1 man squad then not be able to switch again

[tender pilot]

I'm quite unsure if i even should cop battlefield 2042

[tender pilot]

They also deleted that!?!?!?
They legit looked at all great features what were already there and just thought, fuck it

[fierce gull]

You are able to switch squads

But you can't choose it will just send you in a almost full squad

And I think they are going to add some end game scoreboard

[placid echo]

In a technical sense, the scoreboard in 2042 gives more personal information than most BFs

[arctic grove]

Your wallet lol join the struggle

[shut galleon]

yeah but in a practical sense its not really a scoreboard

[fierce gull]

I only look at scoreboards to look at my stats but 2042 shows only mine and my squad so I don't really care

[tender pilot]

Well it can't be worse than BFV can it?

[arctic grove]

Well yeah but there should be a democracy with score board

[placid echo]

Yeah, it shows kills, assists, revives, ribbons, captures, defenses, how the tickets were lost, etc

[arctic grove]

Battlefield 5 has it core battlefield experience lol......look at 2042 if you see any of it 😏😂😂

yo is 2042 on EA play?

[arctic grove]

You should be able to cycle through stats

[fierce gull]

10 hour free trial with regular ea play

[tender pilot]

yes

[placid echo]

I remember people were against squad reviving because "anyone can revive"

[arctic grove]

I don't remember that

[hot thistle]

I got an Xbox series x so

[arctic grove]

oh really? but If I was to get Ea play, I will own the base game right?

[hot thistle]

I got bf 2042

[arctic grove]

and not just the 10 hour trial

[fierce gull]

With regular ea play you can only play it for 10 hours but with EA play pro you can play it whenever you want

[arctic grove]

thanksss that was my question, so I won't own the game on Ea play like the other games that are on EA play

[shut galleon]

if i had my druthers, id pref a traditional scoreboard, vehicle/player damage points, headshot distances and the core classes. OH and more guns/maps and maybe when you shoot from the nightbird/apache the rockets go where your crosshair is instead of the left/right alternating shit

maps/guns will come so thats whatever

[fierce gull]

I need some process thinking here

[arctic grove]

Battlefield 5 has a great democracy with customization

BF1 is my favourite tbh, that game is too good when stoned asf

[arctic grove]

Lol you be thinking your in the battlefield in real life 😆😆😆

[hot thistle]

Bf1 is very good

[arctic grove]

bruh 2022 is basically 2020 x2 so yeah battlefield 2022 xD

[arctic grove]

it really is man

[fierce gull]

Bf1 good battlefield with a good launch

[hot thistle]

I think bf 2042 will get better in the future

[fierce gull]

It will probably end up like battlefront 2

Game was shit at first but became amazing later on

[arctic grove]

Battlefield 1 to 5 is gritty with the immersion with no HUD lol it's like im fighting for my life

Playing among us 3

[fierce gull]

World war

[hot thistle]

What

[arctic grove]

Yeah lol

[fierce gull]

I hope they make a map only for 64 players for this game

[arctic grove]

I play with no HUD on battlefield

[fierce gull]

And add extra details to the map

[rapid moon]

They wont why would they put in so much work into a map only for half the playerbase to use it

[fierce gull]

Idk lemma ask CEO of EA

[oblique nest]

I just got the game. I used to play bf4 alot. I was number 1 in the world with all time kills in 1 point. Number 1 with the famas, the AR something and the bulldog on ps3/ps4. Ps account ALLBOUTCASH.No flex. I'm on pc now. I need help getting back into the game. Dm me if you want to help me. Please and thank you.

[rapid moon]

What do u need help with

[hot thistle]

EA should at least make 64 player conquest permanent game mode

[rapid moon]

Im pretty sure they did i could be wrong tho

[fierce gull]

It's not permanent

[oblique nest]

Everything. Add me and Let's talk

[rapid moon]

Ok

[rapid moon]

Dang

[marble orchid]

It's still there, you just can't pick which squad you join

[marble orchid]

They will if everyone makes an uproar about it

[placid echo]

Those layouts exist in portal, it wouldn't surprise me if there's at least two of those servers were on rn

[rapid moon]

Its EA were talking about. I wouldnt bet on it

[fierce gull]

I mean they did remove the roof objectives when everyone was complaining on Twitter lol

[marble orchid]

No, it's Dice making those decisions at this point

[rapid moon]

True true and dice kinda listens sometimes

[shut galleon]

[arctic grove]

Yeah lol

[pure zodiac]

Sup people

[boreal jasper]

bro he was #1 in some things, worship him

wow this chats dead, everyone must be enjoying the game immensely

[rapid moon]

Its hard to talk with constant slowmode

[boreal jasper]

the slowmode isnt even bad in this server

[rapid moon]

Its still kinda annoying

[boreal jasper]

only if you're one of those annoying people
that
type
like
this

[arctic grove]

Imagine 😭😭😭

[rapid moon]

Nah its just hard to have a convo like this imo

[hot thistle]

What roof objectives

[arctic grove]

it’s not you’ll just need to be direct and let what you’re trying to say be known at one time

[sage ether]

is the game completely dead yet

the player numbers are incredibly poor deservedly so

lost nearly 80% of its player base in a month I hope DICE is proud

[arctic grove]

the game is not going to die that much if it didn’t happen to 4 and V when they released in similar terrible states why would it apply here. but that’s my take and is completely up to age like wine or milk

[sage ether]

theres 16k people playing on steam thats insane

It already had a sale and a free weekend...

[arctic grove]

and a full lobby is 128, so I’m sure that’s a lot of servers you can load into if you do the math

plus steam is just one platform being played through there’s still many more

[sage ether]

I bet they drop the game rather quickly at this point since nobodies even playin git

well consdiering new consolke players cant even find games i'd say its even worse on there

[arctic grove]

i mean I’m on PS5 and it works fine

[sage ether]

what an absolute disappointment I can't even understand what made them drop the ball this hard

[arctic grove]

this was said when V dropped I still remember

[sage ether]

5 has more players than 2042 right now

[fierce gull]

In breakthrough

[next onyx]

If people still played bf5 through the thick and thin this game is no different

[hollow summit]

Guys this game is not nearly as bad

[fierce gull]

Not right now lmao

[arctic grove]

that’s because although it took until the end of the games lifespan it’s still more stable than 2042 currently is in terms of many aspects

[next onyx]

Bf5 launched in an ok state, it wasn't great or bad.

[sage ether]

EA isn't going to waste their time and money doing content updates for this game if no one is playing

what a bummer

[dusky blade]

Yeah BFV was meh

[ember cape]

I feel there will only be one season

[boreal jasper]

remember when it was 50% off WITHIN the first week

[sage ether]

this game was 40 dollars after 4 weeks

[arctic grove]

they will barely fix the game and add a few maps than they will abandon the game. starwars battlefront 2 all over again

[fierce gull]

No shit that was during holiday

[white geyser]

I still didn't like what they put in BF5, having limited ammo for your vehicles and then you need to go back to your base camp to reload your ammo was stupid.

[arctic grove]

BFV is pretty much fully complete with bug fixes and content updates, 2042 launched a few months ago and got caught up on the terrible bugs and glitches, bad move there with 2042 but I still think the comparison is unfair

[sage ether]

@arctic grove you are correct

[fierce gull]

BFV started to become good when they added the Pacific war content

[dusky blade]

But SWBF2 was supported tons for 3 years

[glossy arrow]

Who’s down to play?

[sage ether]

that was a great thing about bf5 how is having ammo for vehicles stupid lmao?

[next onyx]

One of the parts of bf5 that sucked was health attrition

[sage ether]

you guys hate the good parts, BF always use to have ammo and required rearming and healing at base

[next onyx]

Tanks got the short hand and they should have certainly done things around it

[sage ether]

they got rid of it I thought it was the dumbest thing ever and allowed people to just camp forever in vehicles

[boreal jasper]

maybe it was good back then but now it doesnt hold up so well

[white geyser]

I'm just gonna stick to playing BF 2042 until they make a comeback to fix everything in the game

[dusky blade]

Yeah they need to bring back the limited ammo again

[sage ether]

how do you figure? plesae explain how that isnt a good idea

[arctic grove]

I mean I only seen that in 5. 1 might of had it but no battlefield prior did

[next onyx]

Make ammo regenerate if you had non to the max of 4 until you find a resupply station

[sage ether]

yes they did lmao every bf till bf3 had it

[next onyx]

Though to be honest, unlimited ammo on the move I can't complain either

Was fun spamming shells

[sage ether]

bf 1942, bf vietnam, bf 2142, bf2, bad company

[arctic grove]

If that’s the case then sure, my earliest reference was only bf3

[white geyser]

I like unlimited ammo in battlefield games, having limited ammo from BF5 is stupid

[sage ether]

how is that stupid

[arctic grove]

So now vehicles having unlimited ammo is a problem. Damn y’all will find everything the game does not have

[fierce gull]

[arctic grove]

compared to what it would have been supported had the game been successful. i love the game and whats been done to starwar but it was still abandoned.

[next onyx]

Resupply stations were easily camped by asshole teammates

[dusky blade]

It’s been a complaint for a long time

[sage ether]

if they didn't get rid of main bases you could just go back to main base and resupply

[dusky blade]

If it was abandoned EA would’ve pulled the team much earlier bruh

[sage ether]

it gave the enemy team a chance to recoup, and made it so you couldnt camp all game in one spot

[next onyx]

Honestly, its why I don't like resupply stations. They could have done them way better.

Well, bf5 stations

[fierce gull]

Teammates could destroy supply stations in bf5

[sage ether]

removing main bases was the dumbest thing BF ever did. They still had main bases in bf3, made them worse in bf4 and then just got completely rid of them

[torpid shuttle]

Good morning again. Forth time.

[arctic grove]

If limited ammo is what you want, then jets MGs shouldn’t have more than a few hundred bullets, since planes already spit them out so fast you’re going to go through them pretty fast. Which is why modern jets rely more on missile technology. But limited ammo wouldn’t help you any more because youd lose all your missiles as soon as anything pops flares, see the problem?

[next onyx]

Yeah thats the biggest issue limited.

[arctic grove]

they did, pull the team content updates were slow af bc they were running a skeleton crew

[next onyx]

Planes its less of an issue since you're not really constrained

[sage ether]

how is that a problem? BF2 had limited ammo and it worked great

[arctic grove]

Realistically speaking jets carry a limited amount of hard points and limited amount of missiles and gun ammunition

[white geyser]

You're not gonna reload your vehicles ammo once it got destroyed, then it will be a problem

[next onyx]

And often enough you have more easy to access stations

[sage ether]

so dont get destroyed?

[dusky blade]

That’s why most MG’s on jets nowadays are explosive, so if you wanna go with the only a few hundred bullets thing make them annihilate everything

[rapid moon]

Nope its perfectly fine on console

[sage ether]

Commander in BF2 could drop supply crates and you could reload on those

[dusky blade]

There ya go now it’s balanced

[arctic grove]

Yeah true but that would mean jets in this game would have to be a lot more fragile

[sage ether]

you had to work as a team to be a good team

[dusky blade]

Sure, jets should be fragile anyway

[steep skiff]

game is poopoo

[next onyx]

Jets are just vehicle busters and considering how it all works with resupply stations they'd be shit

[arctic grove]

Then you would complain about that

[sage ether]

not even worth arguing with kids who want everything easy and arcade these days, which is why this game sucks as bad as it does

[dusky blade]

Complain about the point of jets? They should be weak but strong, that’s the point and I’m complaining about how that’s not the case Lmao

[hollow summit]

Anyway who listens to dirty fucking bass music

[arctic grove]

Then go play arma or firestorm, ain’t nobody tripping about that ish over here

[next onyx]

Theyre not even that strong

In this game

[sage ether]

wtf is firestorm

[dusky blade]

Battle Royale

[arctic grove]

That insurgency game I forgot the name of it

[next onyx]

I actually enjoyed firestorm

[fierce gull]

It takes like 2 shots with a locking rocket launcher to kill a jet in this game

[rapid moon]

They cant do much but theyre basically invincible to everything except other jets

[sage ether]

no idea what that is I dont play battle royal games

BF2 was probably one of the most in depth BF games ever and was really well balanced

[arctic grove]

Be careful what you ask for.. the wildcat will become a pain in the azss more than it already is

[next onyx]

Yeah you can't hit them unless in a jet yourself

[arctic grove]

it was bf5 br it was bad

[grave summit]

Jets only go after armor shit like tanks right? Just get out

[sage ether]

the level that BF has been dumbed down to is incredible

[next onyx]

Wildcat is a non issue

[white geyser]

I did play firestorm but felt like nothing

[rapid moon]

Yeah the AA launcher is really bad and it makes the op ness of the helicopters even more apparent

[dusky blade]

The wildcat should be strong and anti air but far worse at infantry, if they make that the case it’s fine

[fierce gull]

There is always that wildcat everytime i VTOL

[next onyx]

The wildcat can barely hit helicopters that are orbit bombing

[arctic grove]

It’s common knowledge anti air vehicles are very very effective at dislodging infantry in all scenarios, it is a constant deeper rabbit hole any step you decide to take

[next onyx]

With its 30mm guns

[rapid moon]

The Wildcat should be a pain in the ass its the only thing to counter air targets

[white geyser]

Careful I been the AA tank master since BF4 and I might be to take you down in 2042

[dusky blade]

Balance > deep realism

[arctic grove]

Yeah no I’m not complaining

[dusky blade]

Have things serve a purpose and follow basic realistic guidelines, that’s it

[rapid moon]

Oh ok mb i misunderstood you

[next onyx]

Wildcats are a joke to jets

Just fly straight up and they can't hit you

[rapid moon]

Everything is

[arctic grove]

So balance means unlimited vehicle ammo should stay the way it is, on the bright side ammo does have a cool down where it has to reload itself if you know what I’m taking about, like the helicopter rockets and missiles

[sage ether]

this games a joke

[rapid moon]

I havent unlocked the 40mm and the 57mm for the wildcst yet but i really hope they arent as big of a joke as the 30mm

[sage ether]

which is why its dead and nobodies playing it lol

[fierce gull]

Don't be sad that's how it works out sometimes

[rapid moon]

Its far from dead

[arctic grove]

That 57mm sounds a little too strong but you should be rewarded for getting so much kills on the wildcat

[sage ether]

its far closer to dead than not

[dusky blade]

Unlimited ammo allows for vehicle camping, and non stop destruction of other vehicles and air vehicles

Limited ammo does allow this, but leaves you exposed and requires you to keep your distance, so you can’t just solo destroy vehicles over and over

[sage ether]

16k players is hilariously bad it only peaked at 100k on steam thats terrible

[placid echo]

They're really good. 57mm can two shot Nightbirds if you can hit them at least

[rapid moon]

Id estimate around 60k players combined which is a healthy playerbase

[fierce gull]

Steam is 15% of the player base of this game

[white geyser]

If you use the 57mm cannon against the chopper, it's gonna take 2 or 3 hits

[torpid shuttle]

There is some player play it but it's far from succession.

[next onyx]

The 57mm is pretty much the 6 pounder from 5

[sage ether]

60k players on all platforms is god awful

[rapid moon]

Oh are they not flak rounds?

[arctic grove]

It is what it is, but I see what you’re saying being a possible update in the future to further change how aerial vehicles, in fact vehicles in general play out

[next onyx]

Theyre anti tank rounds

[sage ether]

theres maybe 30k on PC left with origin included

[torpid shuttle]

How do you get that info?

[fierce gull]

He guessed

[torpid shuttle]

[sage ether]

I didnt guess that number

[dusky blade]

I doubt there’s an equal amount of origin when it’s far less popular

[rapid moon]

I mean its not good but its enough to be able to play and not have to sit in queues for 30mins

[white geyser]

I've killed choppers using the 57mm cannon before it got nerf

[fierce gull]

Where did you get it then

[sage ether]

somebody else said it...

[rapid moon]

How about the 40mm?

[fierce gull]

[sage ether]

I know readings hard, there is 16k players on steam that's a fact though

[next onyx]

44mm are anti infantry rounds

[paper herald]

Has Angel done it again?

[sage ether]

16k players is pathetic beyond words

[next onyx]

44?

[rapid moon]

I said the 60k and it was a guess based on the 16k players on steam

[next onyx]

40

[sage ether]

its lost 85% of its player base less than a month after release

[arctic grove]

So I calculated, and let’s say 60k players total and each match is full of 128 people, (this can also be more or less because last gen server sizes) but that equals around 500 lobbies. I’m not sure if that’s good or bad though

[torpid shuttle]

I bet it's around 36k - 50k from all platforms.

[sage ether]

im not sure how anyone could argue losing nearly 85% of a player base 1 month after realses is a healthy sign and good for the game

[paper herald]

What percentage are even on the main game modes?

[ionic robin]

its fcking bad when u need 128 people to fill the game

[next onyx]

All games lose a majority of their playerbase from launch

[sage ether]

like you are literally delusional if you think that's a healthy sign

[arctic grove]

Hype dies out

[rapid moon]

Id guess over 90% but that really is a guess

[fierce gull]

Halo went 250k to 40k

[dusky blade]

What matters is how many remain, of course launch will be the biggest peak

[sage ether]

all games do lose players after launch usually not 90%

[rapid moon]

If it would still be on a decline id be worried but its not

[arctic grove]

Does anyone know how many copies the game sold total? I’m not sure where to find it

[ionic robin]

bf have competition

[torpid shuttle]

Some player still protect this game and tell DICE ignore 80000+ negative review and said they are trolling and make this game toxic.

[sage ether]

when did it stop declining? last time I checked it was at 30k

[fierce gull]

I think 4.2 million

[rapid moon]

And that game is free to play dont forget that

[dusky blade]

Halo infinite dropped from the massive amount of 260K, but has 50K average playing which is good

[sage ether]

thats 5x as many as bf lol

[rapid moon]

Ofc it is its free

[white geyser]

I better keep using the anti tank missile until they add another normal missile that doesn't have a lock-on system for the wildcat's secondary weapon, I'm still capable taking tanks down in 1v1 even it's already updated

[ionic robin]

no playstation lul

[dusky blade]

Halo isn’t even a massively popular franchise compared to battlefield, it’s been dead in the water since 2013

[fierce gull]

2042 almost reached 50k when it was free weekend

[sage ether]

New world had 500k on launch, and still has 100k playing

[dusky blade]

Oh yeah halo is also missing the biggest casual market

[ionic robin]

mmo is different

[paper herald]

There are only 2k people watching the game on twitch.

[arctic grove]

So if 85% of the player base left and if 4.2 million total sales SO FAR is what we got, then that means 357,000 people are still on the game

[paper herald]

Halo is at 7k

[sage ether]

the point is the games bleeding players hard, which means from past experience that DICE and EA are going to drop this game like a sack of potatos

[dusky blade]

Thats not how math works

[fierce gull]

Damn

[white geyser]

This is why they should make a comeback, adding more updates so the fans will be happy

[ionic robin]

400k daily is counting around world

[paper herald]

Highly doubtful they will add anything the fans want... or well remove the crap fans don't want.

[sage ether]

i'd probably start playing again if they dropped a bunch of content but they arent going to do that now

[dusky blade]

4.2 million sales, the PC population reduced by 85%, lowering to 15K average

Y’all can’t do math

[tribal minnow]

Got a series s and these graphics are pristine

[fierce gull]

Imagine bf4 content to portal + metro + Recker specialist in one update

[rapid moon]

The season 1 patch is rumored to be in march which is a joke

[fierce gull]

Rumored

[sage ether]

if there isn't like 20+ guns, new maps, new operators its dead in the water

[paper herald]

Somehow I think they will screw up metro if they remake it.

[ionic robin]

dev dont have tine to make new things when only new things are planned and bug fix

[sage ether]

its not even gunna make it to march

[rapid moon]

Datamined so id say there is some credibility

[fierce gull]

I think the data miner said it could be earlier

[white geyser]

They better give us something really before March

[next onyx]

I hope it's a joke

[paper herald]

That and the specialists will probably screw it up too, deployed shield everywhere and all.

[rapid moon]

Theyve remade it so many times and its never been that bad so im not worried

[sage ether]

there's just nothing to play with in this game

[next onyx]

There's a chance the season is gonna start earlier but whatever

[ionic robin]

they need to release early feb to have a chance

[sage ether]

4 fucking assault rifles, 1 semi auto pistol, I really can't understand what they were thinking

[rapid moon]

True content is the main thing they need rn

[dusky blade]

Add everything through seasons

[hidden wind]

so did 128 players get dropped?

[white geyser]

If it's just a rumor for season 1 march for 2042, stop making false info to create fake news

[ionic robin]

next march and apr have more new games to come out

[next onyx]

The weapons are lacking though whatever

[sage ether]

they better hurry the fuck up

[arctic grove]

The other dude only specified 4.2 million sales period, this includes not only PC but every other platform. The exact number of players online rn is easily calculated by seeing how many people are playing through every platform the game is sold on and adding it up, so I doubt we’re around 300k myself. But PC isn’t the only platform being played on, as console is much more accessible to most people, so yes, my math is fine, you calculated something totally different

[rapid moon]

Wdym?

[hidden wind]

all i see is he 64 player game modes

[dusky blade]

We can’t see the player counts for console, only PC, that’s where the 85% reduction applies to

[rapid moon]

What do u play on

[hidden wind]

PC

[rapid moon]

Uuh ur pc might not reach the requirements idk

[arctic grove]

I applied it across total sells and you applied it to strictly PC players, my point is you’re incorrect

[paper herald]

How come there's no Desert Eagle?

[fierce gull]

They are gonna add a crossbow to this game?

[dusky blade]

But...we don’t know how much of a reduction console players have faced, there are no numbers out there at all

You’re making baseless assumptions

[rapid moon]

Might be a specialist weapon in the future imo

[dusky blade]

You’re also assuming the 15% who still play play every day

[fierce gull]

That would be kinda sick

[arctic grove]

Likewise for you, seeing as you’ve said 15k on PC says anything when I already said because of how much more accessible console is 15k has no bearing on the quality of the game

[hidden wind]

I had cossplay on and turned off and its still not showing. des haing crossplay on mess with it?

[white geyser]

They need to add another rocket launcher that carries 4 ammo and IDK why they add only one rocket launcher, couldn't bring the other rocket launchers that's still being use today??

[fierce gull]

Aren't there two rocket launchers?

[rapid moon]

I dont think so as i said ur pc might not be good enough thats my best guess

[white geyser]

Nope

[paper herald]

RPG or Javelin?

[dusky blade]

What? We still don’t know the player count lmfao

You can’t assume the 85% reduction from pc applies to everything else, that makes no sense

[arctic grove]

And have you seen the recommended specs of this game for PC? And how it’s still poorly optimized for most peoples rigs? No duh it’s going to be low

[dusky blade]

Or maybe because people don’t want to play the game

[hidden wind]

damn. thanks for helping me out then!

[rapid moon]

Bf always had high requirements so its no suprise

[arctic grove]

Because of the poor optimization for most peoples PCs. It’s understandably low

[dusky blade]

You’re making assumptions again

[paper herald]

How come we can't vehicle calldown atv's?

[shut galleon]

god damnit i bought the xbox one version

[ionic robin]

pc is have lower pop due to spec requirement

[dusky blade]

Lmfao rip

[rapid moon]

Id still look around for more info if i were you as i said im guessing thats the reason

[shut galleon]

gonna have to start over

[dusky blade]

If it’s because of the spec requirements why did the game reach 50K on the free weekend

[paper herald]

Maps that are like the oregon trail to walk through and we can't all get quick unarmed vehicles to drive to the next objectives...

[ionic robin]

bec its free weekend

[fierce gull]

Who doesn't want to play free weekend

[sage ether]

they refuse to put vehciles at capture points

[dusky blade]

Yeah but If it’s so poorly optimised barely anyone can play then how so many

[sage ether]

there should be atv's and jeeps and shit at flags you know like all the old games

[arctic grove]

Guys when is the new build releasing?

[ionic robin]

i didnt

[arctic grove]

So you would be saying this other guy is wrong when he says 85% of the player base period is gone, I simply took his word and applied it to total sales

[dusky blade]

Which is wrong

85% base is not gone

[sage ether]

thast a fact though 85% of the player base on PC is gone

[rapid moon]

True with maps this large having transport everywhere is a must

[fierce gull]

The total sales is 4.23 million sales.

[dusky blade]

On PC, yeah, not overall

[sage ether]

steam player numbers dont lie friend

[fierce gull]

Nice

[dusky blade]

This dood says the whole player count for tut game has reduced 85%

[sage ether]

I was seeing people say on the new xbox they couldnt even get a game

that was like 3 weeks ago

[arctic grove]

That’s because red corn never specified he was speaking about the PC player base if he was at all

[fierce gull]

That was for steam

[dusky blade]

He was so 👍

[sage ether]

I said I was talking about PC the entire time specifically steam players

[dusky blade]

I kept saying the 85% decrease didn’t apply to the whole game and you kept saying it did bruh

[arctic grove]

Are you sure?

[ionic robin]

console drop rate should be somewhat close to that number as well lol

[arctic grove]

Give Casper a better internet provider. Casper having T-Mobile sucks.

He never said this originally

[dusky blade]

Look

[arctic grove]

Besides that, 2042 is pretty fun

Now that you said you were however my math no longer applies period

[ionic robin]

do u guys really have this bad taste omegalul

[arctic grove]

Nah fam he JUST said that. He should have specified that earlier. You’re not hearing me

It's not as fun as when I booted up BFV or 1 for the first time, but it's fun

[arctic grove]

Dude heres why:

1. Portal is dead, no progression, garbage match making (i still cant find a bf3 conquest server with 64p since launch)

2. Hazard Zone is junk

3. AOW is the only thing left but thats 7 maps only 2-3 meta specialists and like 3 meta guns

There's so little to be done so ppl move on to other things. I personally went back to bf1

[dusky blade]

BF1 is still a masterpiece btw

[arctic grove]

Fax

[arctic grove]

That shit got problems too as someone said

[dusky blade]

Booting that game up for the first time, where you were forced into the first war story mission, boi it was good

[arctic grove]

I remember the beta for that game. It was standard battlefield beta quality

[fierce gull]

The bugs that happened in BF1 were funny lol that's why everyone liked it

[white geyser]

I wish they come up a new mode that's better than hazard zone

[shut trench]

they need tdm

[arctic grove]

And i dont give a flying fuck abt skins so i aint comming back till march

[fierce gull]

But imagine if the bugs that happened in BF1 happened in bf2042 a riot would happen

[arctic grove]

People know it wasn’t perfect but it’s common human nature to glorify the past and completely forget the bad and ugly about it

[shut trench]

and more guns

[arctic grove]

And then compare their glorification to today and wonder why it’s not the same. But that’s a different subject entirely

[fierce gull]

There is tdm in portal and it gives full progression

[next onyx]

Bf1 had the benefit of good presentation and general stability

[arctic grove]

And h0rse

[white geyser]

IDK why when they look at escape from tarkov and make it hazard zone, was a bad idea and they should have known what was gonna happen

[fierce gull]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gw9KcqQSRRI

[next onyx]

Gameplay was eh, standard

[arctic grove]

Honestly though I found behemoths dope and I wish they would’ve returned

[arctic grove]

Not if u snipe lmao

[frank scaffold]

Hazard zone needs to be f2p, given its own maps, and cosmetic rewards to be good imo

[next onyx]

Sniping was still crap

Just had a sweet spot mechanic for whatever

[arctic grove]

I don’t remember sniping on 1 that well but it worked

[dusky blade]

Sweet spot was awesome, differentiated the snipers

[rapid moon]

Best thing about bf was the vibe

[arctic grove]

Bf1 had that sniper shield though that thing was dope

[dusky blade]

Some were best short range, some were best long range

[white geyser]

I thought hazard zone would like Tom Clancy's Division's dark zone area only better, but it's not

[ionic robin]

lol

[next onyx]

Snipers with varying stats still differ

[fierce gull]

Extracting in hazard zone is cool tho

[next onyx]

Higher velocities, high rpms, etc

[fierce gull]

Wish you could pick up players like that in AOW

[rapid moon]

Yes but there is a best sniper when in bf1 you couldnt just say 1 of them was the best

[next onyx]

In other games that still applied

[arctic grove]

One thing I can say about earlier battlefields is it’s strange how different this one is from 1 and V. A modern to near futuristic battlefield with the feel of 1 and V is what I anticipated this would be like. It’s still good though

[rapid moon]

Oh absolutely it did i never said it didnt

[dusky blade]

Sweet spot encouraged the use of certain snipers in those areas

[arctic grove]

Bruh moment lmao

[next onyx]

Sweet spot gave people easy kills

[vital juniper]

Anyone tryna squad up?

[dusky blade]

So do tanks, so what

[arctic grove]

I still crave that martini henry 50-1 streaks

Tho wath

[next onyx]

Tanks and snipers are different

[white geyser]

I don't remember if there was a sniper trying to kill me in BF1, while I was inside my tank. Dumbest sniper trying to kill me while I'm inside my tank? unbelievable

[next onyx]

Oh dear don't remind me of hardline snipers

[fierce gull]

[rapid moon]

The martini henry's sound gave me chills its so good

[placid echo]

Sweet spot was there to make people use bolt actions in a World War 1 game, which was the main weapon

[arctic grove]

That was the most annoying gun in that game

[arctic grove]

Yep bronkkkk ch0ink

[next onyx]

AWM /R700 with magnum rounds is something I don't want to see again

[arctic grove]

I still used it though it literally perfected feeling like a gun that actually has a punch

[arctic grove]

get rekt

[placid echo]

AWM go brrrrrt

[rapid moon]

I just want a semi auto 50.bmg is that so much to ask for?

[arctic grove]

Nah I used that thing too brodie

[next onyx]

What's fucked is that those killed through armoured insert / on the arm

[placid echo]

Hehe

[next onyx]

Which Is good through armoured insert but the limb part is dumb

[arctic grove]

A fellow man of culture

[next onyx]

I think they were so effective during the beta they actually had to patch the beta

Thats how bad it was

[plucky pebble]

like the svk you can 2 shots a limb still kills

[rapid moon]

Honestly idk why they nerfer the 50. Cal anti armor rounds they need to revert it it was the only way to take down choppers consistently and it required skill

[arctic grove]

Do you think they’ll nerf it?

[next onyx]

Svk is just dumb

[arctic grove]

No

[fierce gull]

SVK too op

[next onyx]

Let's be honest, they won't nerf it

[fierce gull]

If you can aim you can solo a squad

[next onyx]

It gets people the easy kills

[rapid moon]

They nerfed it once already and itngot better but its still dumb

[tender pilot]

what is the new sweat weapon, (type2a)

[arctic grove]

SVK is too damn good I feel a nerf incoming some day

Then again some argue the mag capacity and recoil makes it balanced, plus the dm17 being more stable

[torpid shuttle]

DICE will nerf everything, if they see youtuber said it too good.

[arctic grove]

Leave me alone i like the little birb that big gun was f annoying

[plucky pebble]

hope so

[next onyx]

Dm7 with the close combat mags is basically the turner smle from the bf5 beta

[arctic grove]

7 not 17 my bad

[rapid moon]

So ur saying ur my mortal enemy?

[plucky pebble]

or like the railgun pkp

[arctic grove]

yes

Night bird is a pain but I guess it’s balanced

[rapid moon]

I despise ppl who abuse the little bird

[arctic grove]

Man the little birb so op and fun easy kill farms

1 AA rocket and it gets a mobility killed somewhat

[fierce gull]

Nightbirds are veichle destroyers

[plucky pebble]

little bird shouldnt have explosive rounds

[arctic grove]

[fierce gull]

Nightbirds 20mm is weak af against people

[arctic grove]

I think it could maybe be nerfed but as I said its not that durable

[arctic grove]

izi 30-0 streaks

[rapid moon]

I didnt mind as much in previous games cuz flying choppers was actually hard but a 5 yo without arms could do it in this game

[wide violet]

nightmare fuel emoji 10/10

[shut galleon]

man im so sad, lvl like 57 and im gonna have to grind out everything again if i buy this new console tmrw

[fierce gull]

It shoots peas

[plucky pebble]

just copy paste bf4 and thats it

[sour edge]

Thanks for the tips on aiming, just popped off in both Helis tonight

[rapid moon]

F what are you getting?

[arctic grove]

True but i think bf4 physics were better here it feels to floaty 🤔

Plus night bird 20mm is harder to use to hit enemy night birds or attack helis

[shut galleon]

prob buy the series x, if they dont have it ill buy the s

[arctic grove]

[rapid moon]

Idk i could never fly properly in bf4 granted i gave up pretty fast

[fierce gull]

Ye I normally use 20mm against ground veichles

[torpid shuttle]

It completely useless...

[shut galleon]

feels awkward picking up speed in the little bird on console anyway

[rapid moon]

Its ok you have bottomless rockets instead

[arctic grove]

The best way to kill night birds is wildcat or attack heli if you can keep a distance from the night bird

[arctic grove]

Needed some practice but it felt better than 2042 idk had more momentum so u can nose dive easier

[shut galleon]

or in the helis in general rather

[sour edge]

Eh they need a buff, that and the 30mm they just overheat too quick

[placid echo]

I prefer the DM7 with high power

[arctic grove]

Cursed pfp lmao

[arctic grove]

That’s the problem I have with helis. You have to completely face the ground to move forward and you can’t even fly that fast even if you dive

[sour edge]

Flying/tanking tonight with my gunner was so fun tonight, made me realize why I love this franchise so much

[rapid moon]

Best is the standard rounds imo they still hit hard and you can spam tf out of them

[white geyser]

Since I have BF 2042 on PS4 and buy the PS5 to play 2042.... oh shit I thought the memory would upload to the PS5 so I don't have start all over since I been playing BF 2042 on my PS4.

[next onyx]

Those aren't bad either. Turns into the selbstlader

[plucky pebble]

idc buff the little bird but give us the smaw cuz you cant hit shit with the normal m5

[arctic grove]

How helis work irl tho 🤔 unless it the condor with its CHAD thrusters

[shut galleon]

? did i just get censored

[white geyser]

Who ghost ping me?

[arctic grove]

Are you sure? I’m pretty sure helis are much more agile than in this game

[arctic grove]

Dude ur pfp wtf

[sour edge]

SOFLAM

[arctic grove]

M5 is a one shot on helis so just get a guy to SOFLAM and hope the heli doesn’t flare and boom you got a kill

[plucky pebble]

yeah and how many people use them

[ripe chasm]

im so tired of ppl jumping around with pkp as if its a fucking sidearm

[plucky pebble]

fr

[arctic grove]

The movement feels like it’s out of COD that’s why you see that. It’s depressing

[sour edge]

Although how AT and AA relationship in this game needs work

[arctic grove]

I mean idk but i think u gotta nose down in helo to move forward kind how a bird noses down to move forward and then flaps its wings to gain the altitude it lost while decending...i cd be totally wrong tho 🤔 🤔

[sour edge]

Yeah flight acceleration in this game is so weird

[arctic grove]

You can see blackhawks and vipers for example fly straight with little to no nose depression all the time in videos on YouTube, or just look at battlefield 4 when you could move forward without having to look at the ground

My point only really is idk why it’s so weird in this game

[ripe chasm]

yeah you gotta nosedive on helis meanwhile jets just fucking hover next to you

[white geyser]

I'm gonna be sad, once I finally bought the PS5 and bought the 2042 again, the memory file is not gonna be transferred everything I unlocked on PS4 BF 2042 to the PS5.

[fierce gull]

Rip

[drowsy shuttle]

nerf birds nerf birds nerf birds! or buff stingers and soflam. its funny how the littlebird is better at offense than the attack chopper lol

[fierce gull]

I'm so confused do we want the birds buffed or nerfed

[arctic grove]

Shouldn’t it transfer since the PlayStation account you used on 4 will be the same you use on 5?

[ripe chasm]

i probs just finish falck t1 after angel and keep playing bf1 and 4 lmao

[drowsy shuttle]

they clearly op.. they are better than the attack chopper... or then buff stingers and soflam

[arctic grove]

I kept my game progress on every game when I transferred over to the 5 from 4. I mean I could probably be missing something

[sour edge]

Also the rotors on most helicopters are set at a slight decline as a default

[fierce gull]

I tried playing bf4 again but I kept pressing T thinking I can switch attachments

[slow herald]

The Little $hit is the worst
3 rockets in your face and you die

[sour edge]

So they move forward with no nose dice

[plucky pebble]

Bruh just copy paste bf4 entirely

[ripe chasm]

• the ground sucks you in lmfao

[sour edge]

Smart rockets suck

[white geyser]

I never thought about that

[drowsy shuttle]

a good pilot can stay on air a good amount of time...

specially in 64 server players

[fierce gull]

I heard they are going to fix that next patch

[sour edge]

Yeah I’m only decent and I can survive if no SOFLAM

[fierce gull]

Missiles from nightbirds making you stuck

[sour edge]

Gravity

[next onyx]

Oh yeah the stun effect

[arctic grove]

SOFLAM makes playing helis painful since you get a lock every 2 minutes but it’s still kind of bearable

[plucky pebble]

blackhole missiles

[rapid moon]

Did you know that the height of the eiffel tower can change up to 6 inches throughout the year

[arctic grove]

And I’m not complaining btw

[ripe chasm]

even the bolte 30mm across the map keeps you in place

[drowsy shuttle]

i was just in a 128 server match in Orbital... we were constantly soflam 2 birds and shooting stingers.. saw lot of people shooting at them... and they alwasys got away....

[sour edge]

It’s fine in little bird/ especially with a buddy who can repair, in the attack which is slow it’s so annoying

[arctic grove]

True it’s why I don’t even really like to play on attack helis

[sour edge]

20mm, that thing is so so

[rapid moon]

Well you shouldnt be since you get flares ever 20 second that last a good 5 seconds

[arctic grove]

I just flare and go behind any structure away from everything till they come back

[sour edge]

Hopefully 30mm gets a splash or overheat buff, it’s just not a good standalone weapon rn

[plucky pebble]

what you mean you lock on a heli and they use flares everytime they get lock on

[rapid moon]

Well the dumb ones do anyway

[sour edge]

But when people spam rockets or SOFLMA u can’t do angrily

[chrome obsidian]

on BF4 they can lock on you from the other side of the map, but it's still balanced between vehicles and anything that destroys them

[plucky pebble]

exactly just copy paste it 🙂

[rapid moon]

They could copy paste most of bf4 and most ppl would be happy so idk what theyre doing

[fierce gull]

I got a list of bugs that are gonna be patched so far next update if anyone wants it

[sour edge]

Honestly I liked the AA relationship in BF1 it was Percet

[ripe chasm]

half the time AA tanks espec the wildcat dont even focus on AA since they just rip the ground apart

[rapid moon]

Id like it

[chrome obsidian]

you can't just copy paste it on a new engine but it can be replicated, but oh well, specialists are more important to make money

[plucky pebble]

yeah exactly

[rapid moon]

I think AA was too strong in bf1

[hidden wind]

anyone have issues where like half your key presses register while tabbed out?

[chrome obsidian]

I wanna

[plucky pebble]

i mean i hate bf1 and bf5 tank gameplay the more you camped with it the more reward you got

[rapid moon]

Yeah tanks were horrible especially in bf1

[plucky pebble]

thats becuz planes were too slow lol

[chrome obsidian]

it's world war 1 and 2 so ofc tanks are op

[rapid moon]

And aa had huge splash range and lots of dmg

[hidden wind]

lei cat type at allwith he game open

[ripe chasm]

i wish id be back in school and fire bf3 up once i got home

[plucky pebble]

bf1 beta wasnt like that it was literally bf4 but with ww1 reskinned

[chrome obsidian]

good thing they changed that, they made it more world war 1

[plucky pebble]

and now bf2042 feels like bfv with the vehicles

[arctic grove]

None of this is true

[chrome obsidian]

I wish we could all group up and play older battlefields and ditch 2042 till EA and Dice start fixing their shit

[wide violet]

bf2***

[plucky pebble]

bf4 servers are pretty much active still

[torpid shuttle]

BF2 my best bf.

[chrome obsidian]

yeah but lots of people are still on 2042 and will give a sense of security to EA because people still play

[ripe chasm]

ye typo soz

[wide violet]

i forgive bb

[torpid shuttle]

Server Browser for AOW... when?

[chrome obsidian]

never

[plucky pebble]

pls

[prisma glacier]

Hi, I'm wondering how long did it take for you guys to download BF2042?

[fierce gull]

1 hour

[torpid shuttle]

3-5 hours for me

[prisma glacier]

Since Noon

Because version 1.06 is taking up

[fierce gull]

I wonder if they are going to keep hazard zone the way it is

[chrome obsidian]

hopefully not

[shut galleon]

finally free

[chilly bronze]

Why is my PBX killcount not updating on my playercard badges

[hollow berry]

it's probably going to be the same in 2042 with this stupid slow turret turn speed

[chilly bronze]

I can't get to mastery T2 it just stays at 631 kills out of 720

[hollow berry]

impossible to actually get into the objective and not die

[arctic grove]

does anyone on PS5 know if this game has aim assist ?

[arctic grove]

better

[prisma glacier]

What is Version 1.06 about?

[arctic grove]

https://www.reddit.com/r/LivestreamFail/comments/rleub3/bf2042_died_fast_af/

Smite

[shut galleon]

[arctic grove]

[astral yacht]

Happy holidays all

[median jetty]

anyone wanna join hazard zone squad, just have a mic and be chill

ps4 dm me

[bronze turtle]

Yo im completely new to bf and this discord is there anything i need a heads up on and like how do ik what everything stands for

[wide violet]

thats an open ended question there buckeroo

[bronze turtle]

Yeah so?

[radiant prism]

Meaning what?

[arctic grove]

You need to get your training first then you can talk to us. Talk to seargent dodo

[ionic shadow]

depends on Internet speed

[glossy arrow]

anyone down to play?

[low solstice]

Ps4?

[arctic grove]

Jokes aside, If you're unfamiliar with the game sections you'll likely learn it as you keep playing. Maybe follow Battlefield on reddit and watch Battlefield videos on youtube if you have the time

[glossy arrow]

It doesn't matter

[low solstice]

@glossy arrow

[bronze turtle]

Ok tysm

[median jetty]

ps4 hazard?

[fierce gull]

Or play the game and wait a few months to look at Reddit and YouTube

[bronze turtle]

Im not completely shit lmao my game sense is just bad

[hidden wind]

So is 128 breakthrough lobbies infinite loading for anyone else or just me?

[fierce gull]

You have crossplay on?

[hidden wind]

No

[bronze turtle]

I play fps games for 12hours a day my aim carries me and i get the mechanics on games down pretty fast

[fierce gull]

Most players in 2042 use crossplay that's why you having trouble finding a match

[arctic grove]

12 hours??

[hidden wind]

I'll try with that on thanks!!!

[bronze turtle]

Yeah dont judge lol

Its 4 am for me rn lmao

[arctic grove]

Well if you play fps games 12 hours a day you should be able to pick up on things soon

[hidden wind]

Forgot I turned it off lol thanks for saying that 🤣 instantly got in a game

[fierce gull]

👍 glad things worked out

[buoyant coyote]

how do iget good

[faint inlet]

on PC and my friend I are just not getting in to any games, but I don't see any comms in the 'direct-communicaiton' - anyone else?

[minor holly]

damn only 13k people playing bf on steam this game ded

[buoyant coyote]

lol

[fierce gull]

I swear to god dice is probably gonna make a season pass trailer like call of duty with gun shots matching the music beat and it will somehow bring players back

Cuz they did in the gameplay trailer

[burnt pasture]

any tips on what seettings i should run with 3600 4.3ghz oc and asus strix 5700xt oced to 2150 core boosts to 2100 ish

[buoyant coyote]

any tips on how to get good

[burnt pasture]

can my comp manage high u think 1440p

[floral sphinx]

whenever i want to play i find a game and the server is full. how it is for ded?

[fierce gull]

With the game being certainly unoptimized I don't think you would get good frames with high 1440p but maybe with high 1080p

But they are tweaking the engine for optimization

[burnt pasture]

hwo do u get fps to show in console

[wet berry]

We should be allowed to create our own maps.

[buoyant coyote]

WHAT MAPS R BEST FOR SUNDANCE

oops caps

[minor holly]

cant

its just inferior

[burnt pasture]

ah ill just open my monitors panel and see where freesync is popin arund it in menus

[fierce gull]

I agree that would be bring portal to the next level

[buoyant coyote]

who should i use

[next onyx]

Sundance is pretty good on all

As long as they're an abundance of high cover they can pretty much swoop in anywhere

[buoyant coyote]

ok\

im new i just got the game today i suck

[earnest berry]

Anyone wanna play ps4 2042

[buoyant coyote]

mky first double kill woop

[midnight zealot]

anyone got an empty spot?

[midnight zealot]

its cross platform wanna go? im on pc

[chilly bronze]

why is this

is anyone else experiencing this issue? I saw some threads about it on EA support forum but they said it had been patched

[obsidian zinc]

but not cross-gen.

[midnight zealot]

huh?

that doesnt make much sense. can pc play w next gen and 4/1?

[obsidian zinc]

PS4 can't play with PC.

[midnight zealot]

that's very very dumb

[obsidian zinc]

it is what it is.

[midnight zealot]

yeah

[obsidian zinc]

they are different systems.

[midnight zealot]

still ps5 and xbox x are hard to come by even now

[fierce gull]

can last gen handle 128 players?

[obsidian zinc]

no.

[midnight zealot]

prolly could but they wont let it try

bc ofc they want that new gen shmoney

[obsidian zinc]

I doubt it.

[midnight zealot]

ok

[obsidian zinc]

7th gen consoles also couldn't handle 64 players.

[midnight zealot]

ok bro you're right

[obsidian zinc]

BC, BC2 and BF3 had 24 players on PS3 and X360, if I remember right.

[midnight zealot]

yup ur right

anything else?

[obsidian zinc]

what else?

[midnight zealot]

you wanna add to show your smarts

[obsidian zinc]

I'm not flexing about anything, so...

[midnight zealot]

right

[marble orchid]

Do you want your console to catch on fire?

[obsidian zinc]

xD

[midnight zealot]

yeah it totally would bro

[fierce gull]

jesus the SVK is too op

[marble orchid]

The game already runs poorly on a 12700k, you'd just be torturing last gen consoles by putting 128 players on it

[midnight zealot]

you're so right bro

[obsidian zinc]

it wouldn't catch fire, but it definitely would run extremely poorly.

[boreal jasper]

i get 75fps on ultra with 1050 ti andd i5-8300h with 8gb ram

[midnight zealot]

very true!

[tropic granite]

I’m honestly thinking about not getting 2042 now, the feedback is awful

[midnight zealot]

dont try to argue them bro just let em have their moment

[obsidian zinc]

and it does run poorly on PC already.

[marble orchid]

why didn't you try during the free play week

[chilly bronze]

It's going to depend what matters to you

[tropic granite]

when was that

[marble orchid]

last week

[tropic granite]

dang

[chilly bronze]

it's a fun game to me but it definitely could be better. for $40 I'd definitely consider it

[obsidian zinc]

which is the platform with the most horsepowers under the hood.

[midnight zealot]

the game is so fun when you dont have the internet bitching in your ear

[tropic granite]

thing is, I was thinking of getting a PS5 for it

[marble orchid]

If you can put 100 hours in it, it's probably worth it for that much

[rancid burrow]

Why can't i find a game

[fierce gull]

glad they are fixing serious bugs next patch

[midnight zealot]

LOL

[marble orchid]

Battlefield 2042 would have been fixed by the time you're able to get a ps5

[fierce gull]

tired of the directx bullshit

[tropic granite]

I’m prob gonna get one in April

would you say 2042 would be fixed by then

[midnight zealot]

how many calories are in eating ass

[marble orchid]

they're on holiday break right now but they've been fixing the game all month. If they carry that momentum, maybe

[slow sluice]

merry christmas 🎄 🎅 merry christmas 🎄 🎅 merry christmas 🎄 🎅

[midnight zealot]

marry christmas, she's cute

[rancid burrow]

Merry chrysler

[slow sluice]

o,o

[fierce gull]

you have crossplay on?

[midnight zealot]

happy christopher

[rancid burrow]

Yup

[obsidian zinc]

very intelligent and philosophical questions are being asked here.

[fierce gull]

what platform you on?

[midnight zealot]

you have cosplay on?

bitch lookin for a better me i am a legacy i come from the 70s the algreen offspring guns n the melody

[slow terrace]

[boreal jasper]

what

[fierce gull]

they should add more countries to this game

[boreal jasper]

countries but not maps? like just mention of other places or written lore

[fierce gull]

I mean like

[boreal jasper]

yeah

[fierce gull]

teams

[rancid burrow]

Still can't find a match

[fierce gull]

There is US and there is RU

[boreal jasper]

yeah those are the only two countries irl so the games just realistic

[slow sluice]

i am officially "that guy with the pkp"

then again. so is half the bf2042 population

[fierce gull]

people are using christmas noobs as insults now in this game lol

[slow sluice]

lol

[upbeat sand]

ww3 feels extra money greedy

[tranquil turtle]

what muzzle attachment do you guys use for the ak-24

[slow sluice]

warhawk

i use warhawk on like everything lmao

[tranquil turtle]

I use warhawk on the m5 but the vertical recoil on the ak-24 with warhawk is ☠️

[slow sluice]

oh yeah

[tranquil turtle]

pull down as much as possible and it still goes up

[slow sluice]

i use short barrel on m5 and close combat and then usually a silencer on ak

[tranquil turtle]

I run warhawk, rattlesnake grip, and high power most of the time
and I switch around between the tv 2x and that one reflex sight you unlock first

[short stag]

anyone else having issues joining.. keep getting stuck at the loading screen

[fierce gull]

is your crossplay option on?

[short stag]

no

[fierce gull]

Most people in 2042 have the crossplay option on

you can find matches faster if you have it on

[short stag]

so there arent enough players without it..

[south maple]

i think there is, it is just the way match making works

[fierce gull]

yeah there are matches with no crossplay but for some reason they are hard to join

[short stag]

bit irritating, maybe a prompt of "its taking longer than usual to find a match. Try turning on crossplay"

[south maple]

what's wrong with crossplay though

[short stag]

just like playing with an even playing field.

[south maple]

there are plenty of great people on console

[short stag]

still not an even playing field.

[south maple]

and there are plenty of shit people on PC

[short stag]

thats not the point.. my point is that i like playing against people who use like for like equipment.

[south maple]

also its 128 people, its not like you are playing 1 on 1

[lament sail]

I got 2042 for Christmas so is it stable or crappy like vanguard

[south maple]

i've never had a crash

[lament sail]

I’m on ps4 so it might be crappy

[small comet]

So I have a gtx GeForce 1080 and just went from a 144hz monitor to a 240hz monitor. And refresh rate is set to 240. Still getting the same fps. Is the 1080maxed at 60fps during gameplay?

[south maple]

depends if you set your Hz right

in windows settings

if you are set to 60hz and are running vertical sync, it'll stay at 60

[lime flume]

God why is the BF community so dumb sometimes I just don’t understand

[small comet]

I went to display settings on my screen changed it from the factory 60 to 239.9 or something like that. And in game the hz is also set to 240hz in game.

[arctic grove]

what? your monitor isn't what determines your fps

[small comet]

Higher refresh rate means higher fps if the graphics card can push it.

[arctic grove]

no

refresh rate doesn't affect your fps, it's entirely dependent on gpu

[lime flume]

I don’t understand why people take BFV and make it out to be this holy grace and gods gift of a battlefield when it had a worse launch then 2042 and then compare it to 2042

[arctic grove]

refresh rate only fully utilises that fps

[lime flume]

My brain can’t wrap around it

[foggy tundra]

cause people convienently forget that and have unrealistic expectations

[lime flume]

FR

[small comet]

Ahh ok. That makes sense then. So a 1080 can only push 50to 60fps in bf2042 then?

[arctic grove]

what fps are you getting in game using an fps counter?

[lime flume]

Like on god bro people say BFV was 10/10 on launch and it had 0 problems, perfect game, very fun. when on launch you couldn’t even play with your friends

[south maple]

in order to get the most out of your new monitor, you will need to be getting that FPS rate independent of the monitor

[arctic grove]

and yes 1080 likely tops around that, there is no gpu in the world that can run bf2042 at 240 fps and utilise that 240hz lol

240hz monitors are for low graphics esports games only

[south maple]

because i wear a shoe that can run at 60 mph doesn't mean i will be able to run at 60 mph

[small comet]

Yea I figured I'm hoping to get around 120 at least. Next step is getting an over locked 1878 3060 12gb. But ppl on Amazon have bought out everything and selling it for double.

[south maple]

you won't get a 30xx series card

unless you buy a prebuilt system

or have insane luck

[arctic grove]

I got 3090 for msrp lol

u can get a 30 series card

[small comet]

I def won't right off prob not for a year, can't even be put into a list any.kee.

[arctic grove]

at this point I would wait for the next gen of cards

the key is finding msrp drops, and they're usually a bit more frequent at launch

[small comet]

Ahh.

[arctic grove]

unless people realise to not miss an opportunity this time round

like they did with 30 series, thinking cards gonna be the most expensive at their launch

1080 is still a good 1080p card though, I went with GTX 970 for 6 years

[plucky plaza]

I rly need myself a better GPU too

[arctic grove]

Wow playing on PC with a mouse and keyboard is tough lol I was playing BF4 on my little brother laptop I need to adapt the keys binding

Controller been my go to 😉

[snow vortex]

naw its easy af

[arctic grove]

I set my settings to what I play on console 100+ everything

[plucky plaza]

Not that hard for me but if you were a full time controller player then yeah you need to adapt first for sure

[arctic grove]

It's just trying to remember the keys is difficult lol press the wrong button 80%

[edgy oriole]

It just muscle memory you'll be mlg pro soon enough

[arctic grove]

It's like dang that's the prone button

[arctic grove]

Hopefully lol I'm really good at bf4 it's just trying to adapt on PC very fun experience totally new

[round void]

[edgy oriole]

When I made the switch from console to pc for bfv I made all the mistakes, knew why but kept fat fingering lmao.

[arctic grove]

Lol ha me to it took me 30 mins to rearrange the buttons lol I still flopped 😂😂

[haughty dagger]
