battlefield-2042

[fierce gull]

Pretty sure there were bugs too in launch

[unique oyster]

im barely active here lol

[tame cobalt]

Everything pre-bf3?

[toxic crater]

[glossy storm]

Battlefield 1984 is the best game ever.

[hollow arch]

You guys don’t get it. The majority of BF releases fail when they are released, yet you fall in the same trap

[toxic crater]

you kinda insulted some ppl but thats a good opinion

[fierce gull]

In 1 year they are gonna go "perhaps I treated the too harshly"

[hollow arch]

Get all bent outta shape etc.

[junior zodiac]

This one failed harder from whar I've heard. All I hope is that it gets better

[tame cobalt]

I'm on your side just saying bf1 launch was pretty good

[unique oyster]

i always buy it after years of release
now i dont have to buy this one since gamepass exists

[fierce gull]

This game was way too overhyped lol not the worst launch but really really heated

[tame cobalt]

Well you heard wrong. Bf4 failed hardest and came out fine. 2042 will be fine

[fierce gull]

Bf4 was a shit show

[acoustic oar]

content wise its the worst I would say

[toxic crater]

this year had many hype for vanguard and 2042 but ive never seen such hype turn into disappointment

[tame cobalt]

2042 will be remembered as a good game by its many players

[toxic crater]

bug wise is the worst i would say

[hollow arch]

I bet that this Discord represents 2% of the players. The others are playing the game or found a new one for now

[acoustic oar]

bf4 would like a word with you xD

[junior zodiac]

Let's hope.

I think the issue with the launch is that DICE overhyped the game and now a lot of people have left this game and will probably never come back

[toxic crater]

[tame cobalt]

They marketed their game? How fucking dare they

[fierce gull]

Remember battlefield 4 at Xbox E3

[hollow arch]

What company doesn’t hype games these days?

[toxic crater]

they fucked up the beta and that beta turned the tide of the hype

[unique oyster]

anapurna

[junior zodiac]

They marketed it too much and some parts of the trailer aren't actually in the game (e.g vehicle launching)

[tame cobalt]

2042 will be one of the best bf games.

[sterile garden]

^

[junior zodiac]

I'm not trying to hate this game as I had a blast with the beta and my 10hr trial

[fierce gull]

I bet this game is gonna do a battlefront 2 move and everyone is gonna like it

[glossy storm]

Is what I hoped and still hope.

[toxic crater]

nah bro the trailer was amazing and they added many aspects like meming such as the rendezook, that made much hype ngl

[tame cobalt]

Portal alone will make 2042 goat tier. And no, you cannot view portal as SEPERATE from 2042. It's a part of the game.

[fierce gull]

People have actually done rendezook in this game

[glossy storm]

I'm pretty sure some people at DICE themselves aren't happy with 2042, like they can definitely do better.

[junior zodiac]

The trailer was amazing but I'm just saying some things in the trailer you can't do in the game that should be possible

[lament plank]

The game has potential yes, a lot of what’s wrong shouldn’t even have made it past the beta, yet here we are

[toxic crater]

i strongly agree, i very much enjoyed the bta

[fierce gull]

Bro idk why people be saying portal is not part of the game 😂

[toxic crater]

such as? you can vehicle suicide bomb im not sure how you cant do that

[tame cobalt]

They're dumb i guess

[glossy storm]

While talking about the lore of 2042, only AOW and HZ will count.

[violet sluice]

Unless they bring back classes, scoreboards, better maps, and voip 2042 will forever be a failure.

[toxic crater]

the fact that the servers are free doubled my hype before the game

[acoustic oar]

I guess ppl would like more new content and not just recycled content from older games

[fierce gull]

Fuck classes get Irish

[glossy storm]

But, they kinda shat on that.

[toxic crater]

hz is dead ngl

[fierce gull]

People want metro for this game

[toxic crater]

Portal: Allow me to introduce myself

[tame cobalt]

First of all it doesn't matter, portal is still a part of the game. Secondly, the game has only just started, there's big stuff ahead

[acoustic oar]

guess they will add metro and locker at some point if the game gets not canceled before

[toxic crater]

You are an amazing person ngl

[buoyant coyote]

what gun should i use

[lament plank]

While I don’t think classes should be brought back, as the specialists are nice, I do agree that not all of them should be able to equip everything. Like Casper has no business running around with an m5 or AA, that wouldn’t be very stealthy sniper of him. Same as shield man running around with a sniper rifle. Based off their personas it wouldn’t make sense.

[tame cobalt]

All of them

[arctic grove]

1 map after 6 months "big stuff"

[toxic crater]

all of the guns but master M5A3 first its very pog

[tame cobalt]

You heard what i said.

[buoyant coyote]

ok ty

[violet sluice]

By 'map' you mean empty field right?

[limber kestrel]

Game's a mess that shoulda been delayed, period

[arctic grove]

windows 96 desktop background

[toxic crater]

i recommend the close combat magazine as well as the shortened barrel, it becomes a full auto smg

[lament plank]

Vehicle spawning also needs to be fixed. There is literally no point to having 4 seats in a tank, or wildcat, if only your squad can spawn in

[junior zodiac]

As in launching vehicles from 1 building to another

[buoyant coyote]

kk

[toxic crater]

you get a 2 minute countdown wdym

[buoyant coyote]

1 more k and we willl be fucked (u know u know)

[toxic crater]

eh, sometimes works

[junior zodiac]

I want it to always work and work well

[lament plank]

No no. So I’ll be on the spawn menu, I can see 3 tanks on a random point I’d like to help take. But I can’t spawn on any of them because none of them are in my squad, or have a squad mate in them. So I either have to spawn on a squad mate (if they are even near it) or spawn close and call in a light vehicle or play running simulator

[junior zodiac]

Reject Realism return to stupid and fun

[buoyant coyote]

i found no glithes yet

[fierce gull]

People were outraged of the santa skin cuz they thought this game was supposed to be realistic lol

[junior zodiac]

Yeah sorry but I don't believe you

[lament plank]

Unless it’s a transport, you can’t spawn on a vehicle that doesn’t have a squad mate in it, then why add new seats?

[buoyant coyote]

i mean i just got the game for xmas

[fierce gull]

i hope the next patch releases shortly after their vacation

cuz im tired of this DirextX error

[junior zodiac]

There's a lot of bugs and most of them aren't game breaking but either annoying or funny

[pastel tide]

And we thought that player cards only was for the players. Of course it was for promoting products. What a fucking disgusting Company EA is.

[toxic crater]

stupidism is a very good ideology to be created

[buoyant coyote]

this games been fine for mebesides the fact tyhat i suck

[fierce gull]

Player cards?

[toxic crater]

nice spelling

[toxic crater]

wait what

[lament plank]

lol what?

[buoyant coyote]

ty

[arctic grove]

Let's not be quick to haste 🙂 Keep it civil

[fierce gull]

I don't get how playercards was for promoting products lmao

[toxic crater]

we arent being hostile tho

[fierce gull]

was it because they showed a Christmas theme playecard on their twitter?

[pastel tide]

Search on Google and you find articles.

[arctic grove]

Good 🙂

[pastel tide]

https://mp1st.com/news/battlefield-2042-product-placement-playercards-have-began-surfacing

[tender folio]

[toxic crater]

lmao i think he means promoting future products??

[violet sluice]

Just hostile towards the game 👍

[arctic grove]

lol

[tender folio]

lmao

[rustic umbra]

could someone help me learn battlefield

[toxic crater]

someone making a theory that player cards are meant for promoting products

[fierce gull]

oh shit that g502 playercard looks sick where do i get one

[toxic crater]

lmao yes

[arctic grove]

They are free to make that theory, but if you want my opinion, I don't see how that works.

[toxic crater]

good point, you are right, unless he means promoting future products lmao

[lament plank]

LOL GOTTEM

[fierce gull]

you know what I would bang for a mcdonalds playercard

[pastel tide]

That was the plan all along..

[arctic grove]

The only thing I could potentially see, is store purchased player cards, which is entirely possible.

[toxic crater]

ahhh with the burger king player card as well 🤣

[lament plank]

Yeah cuz you know all those rockstar cans with halo skins, or Doritos bags with cod skins are so different. Welcome to gaming bud.

[arctic grove]

But not promoting "products" lol

[toxic crater]

it would open another front to the fast food war

[fierce gull]

lol

[pastel tide]

They don't release the most lazy attempt of a good game, there the difference.

[lament plank]

Please, I don’t need another excuse to go get chicken nuggets from McDonald’s I’m already unhealthy enough

[toxic crater]

get nuggets from burger king

[arctic grove]

Chickie nuggies from Maccas are amazing though, regardless of health hahah

[lament plank]

Shouldn’t you encourage me to get potatoes?

[toxic crater]

fair point, but the potatoes they make are bad, get potatoes from Maccas they're the best

@toxic crater

[lament plank]

https://tenor.com/view/potatoes-sam-gamgee-same-po-tay-toes-gif-5319438

[toxic crater]

ok good night ive stayed up at an unhealthy time i need to replenish energy so i can be fresh to eat and appealing to customers

[arctic grove]

Good night mate!

greeting fellow Aussies

[glossy storm]

How many BF games have had live service?

Including 2042.

[honest glade]

is it just me or pkp seems a bit op

[native jacinth]

battlefield 5 but they dropped it early to work on this game instead (lol)

[plucky plaza]

Pkp is really good

[arctic grove]

the most op things are the maps

[honest glade]

what

[arctic grove]

they are so op 1 million people gave up on them

[tender folio]

[tame cobalt]

Average braindead statement

[honest glade]

the maps are bit too big

[arctic grove]

u know im joking right

[manic forum]

Again unable to load data

[foggy crest]

😂💯

[tame cobalt]

Yall know the game's players don't all play it at the same time and on steam right?

[fierce gull]

Asked my teammates in chat if anyone got a soflam to target a nightbird and we took it down when someone said they had one 😎

[buoyant coyote]

how does atni armor grenade owek

[honest glade]

yes they do

[arctic grove]

u do know 20k is average peak and counter strike has 500k average

[manic forum]

Because it is free

[arctic grove]

no because ITS GOOD

[tame cobalt]

Throw in the air, it will target the vehicle nearest to it

[native jacinth]

so was 2042 and it couldn't even beat it's launch numbers

[plucky plaza]

Coz csgo is the most popular and the most played game on Steam

[foggy crest]

🤣🤣🤣

[tender folio]

[acoustic oar]

its still bad when the older game has more players on a plattform then the new game 🙂

[arctic grove]

there millions of free games without players.

[manic forum]

Oh yes, and it has skins

[arctic grove]

maybe a game has a lot of players because its good???

[manic forum]

Maybe

[fierce gull]

damn csgo has more players than halo infinite , vanguard and battlefield

[arctic grove]

ever thought about that?

[buoyant coyote]

does it not target tanks ?

[honest glade]

dice calls us and screams at us to play

[manic forum]

But cs also had disadvantages

[fierce gull]

it does but it's glitched they are fixing that next patch

[foggy crest]

CSGO is 👑

[manic forum]

Fortnite also has lots of players

[buoyant coyote]

ok

[fierce gull]

Fortnite is popular now cuz they added the rock lmao

[pastel tide]

While at the same time breaking 5+ other stuff. Thats the cycle of 2042. Fix one thing break another thing.

[manic forum]

Lmao pubg is so popular, is it good? No

[plucky plaza]

“Good” is subjective

[foggy crest]

It is good

[fierce gull]

Cycle of battlefield

[buoyant coyote]

only reaso nwhy is cus they d o crossovers it wouldv e been dead long time ago

[arctic grove]

your opinion doesnt matter

[foggy crest]

Exactly 😂

[storm fiber]

How do I spawn helis?

[arctic grove]

pubg is an old game btw while battlefield 2042 is a new game...

[foggy crest]

Still pubg has more players

[storm fiber]

Can you tell me

[arctic grove]

because its a good game

[buoyant coyote]

how do iget a scope on the side of m y gu nthat ic nswitch to

[fierce gull]

you can't ground spawn helis

[acoustic oar]

are they not filling up the lobbies with bots in pubg now?

[foggy crest]

Yep no denying that bro

[storm fiber]

So how do I get one?

[pastel tide]

I can't really understand that still there is people defending this game 😂

[fierce gull]

There is like a gear button below your main spawn point

[foggy crest]

Bots are in Battlefield tooo because they knew this game will die soooo quickly

[storm fiber]

Can we join a call

[arctic grove]

2042 has its problems, but far from a bad game imo. I really enjoy playing it.

[acoustic oar]

ye but if you need bots to fill up lobbies in pubg it can not have alot of players I would guess maybe more than bf I dont know

[native jacinth]

https://steamcharts.com/app/1238810#1m battlefield V monthly playerchart
https://steamcharts.com/app/1517290#1m battlefield 2042 monthly playerchart
https://steamcharts.com/app/730#1m csgo monthly playerchart (just as an example)
anyone else weirded out by the graph formed on 2042? don't mean to start some conspiracy theory but this graph is really weirdly smooth, never seen anything like it. you can compare it to other steam games aswell and they all have easily visible playercount dips but here it's oddly smooth

[arctic grove]

There is a controll key to assign for voip in keybidings menu, anyone tested that?

[plucky plaza]

Its fun sometimes but bf2042 does not have a “Battlefield identity”

[pastel tide]

It's not uncommon to have low standards

[storm fiber]

Can you just join a fucking VC and show me?

[plucky plaza]

No classes

[arctic grove]

I don't think 2042 has VOIP yet? I might be wrong

[fierce gull]

join general 1

[foggy crest]

Bots I don't think count as a player I am not sure here but definitely pubg is still played by a lot of players in asia

[arctic grove]

Nothing wrong with that!

Where can i find a link to see current/monthly/weekly active gameplay players of bf 2042?

[arctic grove]

dude do u live behind the moon? u dont see any dips in battlefield because the player base is so low it doesnt get lower. the dips in other games is because of evening and morning hours...bruh...

[storm fiber]

Im there

[native jacinth]

that's literally not how it works, you can look at other games on steamcharts, smaller or bigger than battlefield 2042 and you'll also see a clear dip during offpeak hours. the 2042 graph in comparison is oddly smooth
https://steamcharts.com/app/1238820#1m even battlefield 3 has a clearer offpeak

[arctic grove]

its not smooth it just doesnt get lower hahah

[foggy crest]

PUBG has 306,234 players playing right now just on steam soooo it's ALIVE

[fierce gull]

ah it's greyed out because someone already took it

[arctic grove]

u cant drop down when u are already at the bottom

[native jacinth]

can you read

[fierce gull]

@storm fiber yeah

[acoustic oar]

ye I saw that and I also saw some jack frags videos with bots

[arctic grove]

I mean dice is trying to make a hole in the bottom until march so we might get this graph even lower

[foggy crest]

👍

[fierce gull]

@storm fiber my audio glitched out what did you ask again?

[buoyant coyote]

.

[fierce gull]

The wingsuit belongs to a specialist called sundance

[foggy crest]

Is it just one map ?

[arctic grove]

I see only a spike in player count when a patch releases, after that hits bottom again

[arctic grove]

yea

[foggy crest]

DEAD

[fierce gull]

you jump off a high area and press space

[buoyant coyote]

this game iwll have loyal players not everyone will leave

[fierce gull]

yeah she replaces the parachute with a wingsuit

[foggy crest]

Yeah those who enjoy will keep on playing

[pastel tide]

Failed product then

[arctic grove]

only the hardcore bf fans will stay BUT keep in mind this whole game is based to be for new players and they failed so hard

[arctic grove]

Funny thing is if you spawn to ateamate mid air and have parachute auto deploy, Sundance will open the parachute instead of wingsuit.

[lavish shadow]

Question is how big

[foggy crest]

Exactly 😂

[fierce gull]

really?

[pastel tide]

Let it sink in that BFV was the last non hero shooter battlefield we will get. I'm done with this franchise, no interest in a Hero shooter where it's clearly not fitted.

[tender folio]

#fact

[lavish shadow]

Bf5 surpasses bf2042 players in steam

[fierce gull]

@storm fiber it heals vehicles

yeah

[lavish shadow]

For me bfv was super fun and good

Even though it has way too many flaws

[buoyant coyote]

i likebf4

[fierce gull]

thought people didn't like the battlefield experience in bfv

[buoyant coyote]

i like that u can toggler flight mode in jkets in 2042

[sour edge]

People liked the movement and the pacific dlc was amazing

[fierce gull]

I love that

[buoyant coyote]

ikr i just jump on the oustide and shoot down the one following me then get back in

[fierce gull]

really helped me to destroy ground vehicles like tanks lol

[sour edge]

Yeah it’s cool, but not really a point in doing it because u just get rocketed

[fierce gull]

you have to find the best spot to do it

[buoyant coyote]

i use swundance so i can just wingsuit os i dont die

[sour edge]

I like the forward gunner/weapon pods on tanks, they are really fun and allow for a full squad to get in a tank

I just wish for more weapon pod customization such as commander seat on the little bird, give spotters more to do you know

[opal cedar]

anyone got an OP PBX-45 loadout?

[pastel tide]

Still a lot better then Call of Battleduty 2042. The Battlefield experience is almost gone in 2042. Biggest letdown is all the missing features, now called legacy feature by EA. No classes, bad maps, not enough content, whee is the destruction that was the trademark for this franchise?

[arctic grove]

18k players bruh

[opal cedar]

in what

[fierce gull]

steam

[buoyant coyote]

man a tower fell on me before theres destruction lol

[sour edge]

Destruction was sacrificed for 64v64

[opal cedar]

no one plays on steam 🤣

[fierce gull]

steam is like 15% of the playerbase lol

[opal cedar]

you can get the game on epic for 30 bucks LMAO

[pastel tide]

Another thing I don't think anyone was asking for, 32 vs 32 was more then enough.

[opal cedar]

I mean every lobby im in is literally full so yeah no complains

[fierce gull]

no way people saying this game is apex legends cuz you could see through walls

[opal cedar]

🧐

[arctic grove]

20 more $ for Onyx m5a3 skin lmao

[opal cedar]

where can u get skins?

[native jacinth]

and the game dropped from the 100k concurent players all time peak on steam to ~19k (post free weekend during winter sale)

pretty safe to say other platforms on pc followed

[pastel tide]

But took a lot of inspiration from Apex, to bad they done a much worse job in every part compared to that game.

[fierce gull]

as if the military today can't see through walls

[sour edge]

I think just make it 35v35 or 40v40, but more destruction, a good compromise u know? Destruction was perfect in bfbc2 and I loved it in bf1 especially on st Quentin’s scar blowing up the windmill

[arctic grove]

joke is on you, apex 227k currently playing.

[pastel tide]

"But it's free"

[sour edge]

How much does halo have?

[arctic grove]

make 2042 free, or at least unlock every skin

[haughty dagger]

And Halo infinite has dropped 75% of its player base since launch. It happens all the time to new games.

[fierce gull]

halo went from 250k to 23k lol

[native jacinth]

halo infinite is free

[opal cedar]

75% are those discord mods with 0.6 KD

[arctic grove]

still better than 19k of 2042

[opal cedar]

2042 ain't free bro

[fierce gull]

if halo infinite wasn't free it would probably be 1k lol

[plucky plaza]

Halo infinite is a decent game tho imo

[opal cedar]

also 2042 requires high end pc

[fierce gull]

legit $10 for cat ears for your spartan

[arctic grove]

they should release all skins for free

[fierce gull]

[arctic grove]

especially gold/ultimate edition players should have everything unlocked

[pastel tide]

Everything should be free!

[opal cedar]

halo fan base are just fully with subreddit mods

[native jacinth]

you can't compare a game that's free now, free forever and doesn't require a nasa PC because the optimization was done better compared to a triple A game that couldn't pull it's player numbers up even with a free weekend event

[haughty dagger]

Just stop dude. Nothing is going for free.

[arctic grove]

I know, but as a gold member, im fucking dissapointed.

[plucky plaza]

To be fair Halo Infinite is not optimised at all on PC

[native jacinth]

runs better than 2042 for me

[opal cedar]

guys where do i buy skins ??

[haughty dagger]

Then just accept disappointment and either wait for the game to be up to your standards or just not come back.

[fierce gull]

in halo infinite

[pastel tide]

The shop isn't open yet, I don't think they dare until the game is functional

[opal cedar]

I run halo on 130-144 fps and BF on 70-90fps

BF pretty huge compared to halo

[honest glade]

how can i switch squads ?

[plucky plaza]

I just wish Halo had fullscreen

[foggy halo]

If the skins cost anything for gold edition buyers than

[fierce gull]

you go to squad and players

and put your mouse on your squad and you will see switch squads

[opal cedar]

How do people already have skins that aren't unlockable

[pastel tide]

Of course it will cost the same for everyone. People already got there content for gold edition

[foggy halo]

[worthy temple]

What do you mean

[tame cobalt]

The most noteworthy thing is how healthy the 2042 numbers look despite all the outrage

[honest glade]

thanks

[worthy temple]

??

[fierce gull]

true that

[buoyant coyote]

its not as bad as ppl say lol

[opal cedar]

I see skins that i can't unlock yet but don't see at the skins customization

[sterile garden]

lol everyone complains but those that do never played bf4

[fierce gull]

even though it has a lot of negative reviews a lot of people are still playing it

[worthy temple]

Are you talking about the red skins ?

[opal cedar]

no

[buoyant coyote]

dats what im sayn

[fierce gull]

lmao i saw negative review on steam for 2042 and he had 100 hours played

[arctic grove]

Once the season pass unlocks, we will see an increase of options for skins.

[sterile garden]

bf4 was a nightmare litterally nicknames broken field 4

[buoyant coyote]

bf4 still my fav tho lol

[opal cedar]

virgin that got clapped with negative KD

[arctic grove]

I am keen to see what the season pass entails

[radiant echo]

Ello Game news master

[arctic grove]

SERGO

[tame cobalt]

https://twitter.com/Battlefield/status/1471510440463122448?t=3w9VJBNVQRJXqzgBUaXyXg&s=19

[pastel tide]

It had classes, features that are expected, content. Yes servers was bad a long time ago, but people would be quite happy with 2042 if it was only server problems.

[signal basin]

Probably nothing that can be earned in solo like they promised.

[worthy temple]

Some skins come from online stuff like there's a special calling card and stuff for Twitch prime**, maybe it's something like that

[tame cobalt]

Kek

[opal cedar]

ah thats why

[arctic grove]

Yes! I've seen this art, if its a skin I'll cop it haha

[opal cedar]

I'm gonna continue my 4KD journey

[arctic grove]

only time will tell

[plucky plaza]

Ill just hope that dice comes up with something because early bf4 was definitely worse than early 2042

[radiant echo]

[tame cobalt]

If it's not part of battle pass or free imma be sad

[arctic grove]

Missed you buddy

[fierce gull]

better be

[radiant echo]

same same hru

[arctic grove]

Busy! But I now got covid lol

[foggy crest]

On steam for a tripple a game with that much hype and just in month it has only 20,000 players I don't think it's healthy

[worthy temple]

We're you vaccinated

[arctic grove]

Yes!

[opal cedar]

no one plays on steam bro

[arctic grove]

But I work at a nightclub

[foggy crest]

😂 if you think so 👍

[opal cedar]

the game is way cheaper on epic games

[fierce gull]

people only use steam for csgo lol

[tame cobalt]

Healthy or not it's WAAAAY healthier than you'd think based on the "reviews"

[worthy temple]

a nightclub... Yeah that would be interchange.

[opal cedar]

people that complain are always the one with a negative KD

[worthy temple]

You would need a full on hazmat suit virologists wear to not get it

[radiant echo]

Oh noe

I hope you get better

🤞

[fierce gull]

tbh I love the jets in this game better than bf4

[round void]

[opal cedar]

are u dev?

[foggy crest]

I hope that player increases and game gets content

[glossy storm]

Bruh, I just noticed the bass part of 2042's main theme. It actually sounds good and IMO makes the theme better.

[arctic grove]

Thanks man! I got no symptoms lol! And the government messed up my results twice! But yes all is fine here hahahah

[opal cedar]

be patient

[worthy temple]

You get time off now right

[arctic grove]

I do, but I don't want that.

[arctic grove]

We shouldn't have to be. It should've come out fixed.

They knew everything and they lied, by staying quiet.

[worthy temple]

Don't you get paid time off

[foggy crest]

I am very patient guy but gamers usually lack it

[plucky plaza]

You have to be patient with Battlefield

[glossy storm]

I can't, for the life of me, find any reason to dislike 2042's OST. Sure, sometimes the distortion may be excessive, but it still sounds good, IMO.

[dry fractal]

Anyone having the Lobby issues again today on PC? any word on the cause from EA?

[arctic grove]

Sadly not! I am a casual, but working full time lol

[fierce gull]

you having trouble finding a match?

[dry fractal]

yes\

[fierce gull]

Do you have crossplay on?

[worthy temple]

Bingo

[foggy crest]

In my opinion it's garbage IMO

[dry fractal]

I am going to take it no, because not sure what it is.

[worthy temple]

I wish they buffed the radio volume inside the vehicles

[dry fractal]

it was off

[fierce gull]

holy crap i just experienced the best teamwork

[tame cobalt]

Well duh it will. That's what's gonna happen with every season

[worthy temple]

Did you add them as friends

[dry fractal]

that was it. thanks for the hint

[fierce gull]

some dude in a jet told us to use soflam on tanks so we did and my man blew them sky high while he switched his flight mode

[fierce gull]

and we were able to complete the objective

[worthy temple]

Soflams make me tingly

[fierce gull]

felt like I was in a campaign

[sour edge]

SOFLAM is something

[worthy temple]

You can change the direction of a game with one of those in breakthrough

[foggy crest]

I hope .

[tame cobalt]

Shooting helis with rockets/tank shells make me ecstatic

Such an amazing feeling

[worthy temple]

I wonder if the Bolte can lock on

[fierce gull]

ikr really cool when you blow up vehicles in this game

[arctic grove]

1 mile tow hit feels even better

[arctic grove]

maybe on a soflamed vehicle not air

[tame cobalt]

💯

[arctic grove]

currently grinding for t1 incindiery frag and t1 c5

[arctic grove]

t1 is 40 masteries. nothing special. waiting for 1k mastery skins

t1 is like the 500 kills dogtag in bf4. no one cares about.

we want those dogtags that show our actually amount of kills

[worthy temple]

Is it 30 kills each mastery

[arctic grove]

30 for guns 60 for vehicles

[worthy temple]

That's 1200 and 1800

[arctic grove]

1200 and 2400 is t1

[worthy temple]

I'm trying to get t1 on every single thing in the game

[arctic grove]

But Im at like 30k so where is my dogtag

[opal cedar]

16-1 in warfare

[arctic grove]

I miss my 3000x MVP dogtag in bf4 😦

[worthy temple]

I wish they had the detailed stats like on bf3 or 4

Every thing had a leaderboard. Sniper kills, tank kills, etc etc

Could have leaderboards for specialist stats now as well

[arctic grove]

If you believe it or not the leaderboards were so detailed I made friends finding people located in my city

[opal cedar]

lmao

[arctic grove]

in bf3 and bf4 u checked the leaderboards and could choose your own city and it showed you all the people in your city

[worthy temple]

That's pretty cool

[arctic grove]

was amazing how can u delete something like that

[opal cedar]

they should add our IP address to the leaderboard

[fierce gull]

And our phone numbers too

[arctic grove]

there was no force to make your location public

[worthy temple]

Don't forget social insurance

[opal cedar]

Battlefield DDos War

[fierce gull]

They should add phone numbers so in case if anyone kills me I can call them to say they suck

[arctic grove]

I guess you never played ARK if u want to talk about ddoss

[worthy temple]

Or.if their mom needs to talk to you

[opal cedar]

I never played ARK

[arctic grove]

trust me this game is the worst game ever everyone cheats on official servers 😄

[opal cedar]

Don't like the game itself

[arctic grove]

ddossing is just the beginning of the toxic community not even close to be the worst thing

ark puts cheating and ddossing to another level

[tame cobalt]

Angel's LRIP skin doe 🥵

[arctic grove]

and the devs dont even ban u for it 😄

gold edition was worth the money for the dino charm.

I spend 15k hours into that game and paid 0 because someone gifted me 😄

[buoyant coyote]

yes i want dino charm

[arctic grove]

bf2042 u pay 120 $ for 7 empty fields

when u look at google images for "windows xp background" you see the inspiration for the bf2042 maps.

I like fields

[glossy storm]

I would love a bigger normal city as a map, not a tech park like Kaleidoscope.

[foggy crest]

😂 u have seen the memes 👀

[arctic grove]

Ive seen the meme couldnt stop crying 😂

[tender folio]

lmao

[rapid torrent]

What are the pros and cons of Battlefield 2042??

[foggy crest]

The new map also looks like a flat map but can't say I am correct here

[empty bloom]

imagine

[arctic grove]

strike at karkand. grand basahr were so good

[foggy crest]

Pros : it's Battlefield
Cons : it's not Battlefield

[arctic grove]

and the other market place map i forgot the name lovely infantry

[buoyant coyote]

how does someone hav lvl s0005

[arctic grove]

Not possible

[arctic grove]

Ive seen s127...

sharqi peninsula was really good

[stark cipher]

Pro is non
Con is it’s not battlefield

[buoyant coyote]

i seen it but i left cause match wasnt staring

[buoyant coyote]

pros good came cons ppl say bad game when not

[arctic grove]

s0005 or s005

[arctic grove]

It’s not possible to be S0005. S005 is a possibility though.

[buoyant coyote]

i dont rememnber it was one of them

[arctic grove]

s005 is like level 105

[foggy crest]

Only pros is I like it has 128 players

[arctic grove]

you get s levels once you rank past lvl 99 theres s001 - s999

[buoyant coyote]

ooo i though tit was someinhg special

[stark cipher]

True

[arctic grove]

you stop unlocking anything after lvl 99. the knife is the last thing u unlock

s-ranks are just bragging rights

[foggy crest]

U agree with me 😳 I thought you don't like 128 😂

[tame cobalt]

AC-42 do be a sexy gun doe

[fierce gull]

True true

[arctic grove]

from my gameplay breakthrough on 128 is good tbh but i like conquest better on 64. plus with the tdm out i've been freaking tdm recently

[fierce gull]

I want AC-130 in this game

[foggy crest]

I want Domino's in this game

[worthy temple]

Dominos stuffed crust pepperoni pizza ?

[fierce gull]

I would bang for a domino player card

[foggy crest]

Any 🍕 is ❤️

[bleak nebula]

pizza always good

[foggy crest]

EXACTLY ❤️

[fierce gull]

Buy large pizza battlefield 2042 bundle at dominos and get domino player card + 2 gun skins

[worthy temple]

I've never tried new York style pizza where you can fold it

[buoyant coyote]

who wanna see bf1 meme

[fierce gull]

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

[worthy temple]

Anyone here just get 2042 for xmas

[foggy crest]

we don't have NY style pizza maybe one day I will go there to try it

[worthy temple]

We have it here I just don't want to go alln the way to the middle of the city to try it lol

[arctic grove]

very greasy and u better pack chili flakes and parmesan. gets really saucy the closer you get to the crust

[foggy crest]

just go there one day whenever you feeling it and try it 👍

[worthy temple]

I will definitely

[foggy crest]

U describing NY style pizza

[foggy crest]

👍

[arctic grove]

pretty much the experience i had with it 95% of the time

[foggy crest]

Nice

[arctic grove]

Hi, can someone help me ? I bought bf 2042 from Epic but when i want to install it, Origin tell me that i need to activate the game to play ?

[buoyant coyote]

i dont use epic so idk

[arctic grove]

oh :/

[foggy crest]

U used coupan ?

[tender folio]

better contact customer support for this case.

[buoyant coyote]

when it says that on steam u just hve to open it from orgin the first time so try aunchung dfrom orgin

[arctic grove]

i used the 10 bucks yeah

[arctic grove]

So i open it from origin, and it's gonna start downloading ?

[buoyant coyote]

maybe idk

[arctic grove]

i can't open it :/

[buoyant coyote]

idk what to do sorry

[arctic grove]

Np

[foggy crest]

BF1 when I launch it from steam it doesn't start and in origin game doesn't show play so I reinstalled it and it worked , try reinstalling from origin this time not from epic , I also claimed coupan but I don't know what to buy 🥲😔

[arctic grove]

Well, Bf is not installed

He his not on my library

[foggy crest]

this franchise is painful

[arctic grove]

i need to activate it

[foggy crest]

U just bought it ?

[arctic grove]

yep

[brazen terrace]

can you guys join a match? because I just can't... It's been a week now.

[buoyant coyote]

yes perfectly find

[fierce gull]

Do you have crossplay on?

[foggy crest]

I don't know know if it will work 😅 but maybe relaunch both application epic and origin

[brazen terrace]

you're from what region?

[arctic grove]

aldready do it, nad restarted my pc

[queen hearth]

Control just appeared as todays free game on Epic store

[foggy crest]

Epic is pain

[arctic grove]

yeah

[foggy crest]

U played Quantum Break ???

[buoyant coyote]

na east

[queen hearth]

Yeah

[foggy crest]

sorry bro I don't know how it will work but I hope you will find out 🥲

[queen hearth]

Activation can be blocked if you have a firewall running controlling packets in/out

[tame cobalt]

I predict season 1 finna drop in feb, despite the datamine saying otherwise 😶

[foggy crest]

Which one you enjoyed control or quantum Break , I enjoyed quantum Break and I also finished it but control for me was boring

[arctic grove]

i don't have any firewall or something :/

[tame cobalt]

But if they need till March to iron things out, then so be it

[queen hearth]

I felt QB was more QT events whereas Control ray traced real-time graphics

But agree Control got boring maybe half way in for me

[fierce gull]

I think we are gonna get 2 maps when season pass comes out not just one

[foggy crest]

Same bro

[tame cobalt]

Yes, exposure and metro

[queen hearth]

Its supposedly 1 x 2042 map and 1 x portal map plus new specialist. Originally, if you believe Tom Henderson, it was 2 x maps for each

[fierce gull]

New metro in AOW and metro in portal would be the bomb

[buoyant coyote]

gun game in portal is so fun

[tame cobalt]

Definitely gonna get infantry-focused and infantry-only maps in due time

[foggy crest]

Is your spacebar broken ?

[lime flume]

I don’t see why people are shitting on 2042, they forgot that BFV and BF4 had worse launches

[buoyant coyote]

no i i just got a new keyboared the keys r closer together then my old one

[tame cobalt]

Because they only remember the good stuff from the past and focus on the negative stuff in the present

[fierce gull]

2042 launch is alright but bf4 was a shit show lmao

[lime flume]

FR

[foggy crest]

😂 my friend also got keyboard yesterday

[fierce gull]

It was just that 2042 was way too overhyped

[buoyant coyote]

bf4 came out to bet a relally good game also

[lime flume]

Bro you should’ve seen the hype on 5

[tame cobalt]

[queen hearth]

They are whining mostly cause classes were dropped and specialists added (with cheesy cutscene comments), no VOIP (for the 5% who used it) and no score board (for the 5% who care about K/D ratio).

[lime flume]

On launch you couldn’t even invite your friends, so you couldn’t play with your friends lmao

[lime flume]

I aM a VeTeRaN pLaYeR, aNd I dOnT lIkE tHaT dIcE wAnTs To TrY sOmEtHiNg NeW

[exotic star]

Battlefield 2042 ps5 players? Have a special discord or is cross channel?

[queen hearth]

On launch I had the 'persistent data' error for a couple hours and the hit reg issues but apart from that, was fine for me (I'm S005 now)

[lime flume]

There is #lfg-playstation

[tame cobalt]

[lime flume]

People saying the only levelution is the radio tower
I guess destroying the rocket doesn’t exist

[jovial jay]

anyone having a sudden freeze then CTD 😐

[fierce gull]

The rocket exploding in orbital is awesome

[lime flume]

Fr

[buoyant coyote]

worst part about this gakme is not being able to bind stuff tomthumb bttons on mouse

[queen hearth]

Check your Nvidia drivers Ligma

[tame cobalt]

People are really dumb. That's all i can regarding that

[lime flume]

We spek Inglish to bro

[tame cobalt]

Weather events are also levelution

[buoyant coyote]

lol

[queen hearth]

Originally was to include earth quake and volcano events as well, hopefully they do add that content over coming seasons

[sonic haven]

Game worth buying rn ?

[lime flume]

I can guarantee 6 months from now people are gonna be praising this “very new levelution” that is the rocket explosion

[tame cobalt]

Large scale levelution as a whole is a bit of a gimmick anyway

[foggy crest]

upto you

[ashen wadi]

I haven't seen that rocket explode in ages.

[buoyant coyote]

i say yes

[sonic haven]

Its on sale

[fierce gull]

I'm guessing we are gonna get naval maps since we have hovercrafts

[tame cobalt]

def has to happen more often

[sonic haven]

But I see a lot of negatives about the game

[lime flume]

I would say yes, but don’t expect it to be the same as other BF games. So don’t go shitting on it, it’s pretty fun

[vestal grove]

Yeah….more than 5% use VOIP and more than 5% want the scoreboard. Nice try.

[sonic haven]

I’ll just hold then dont wanna waste my money

[fierce gull]

Would be cool if we had tsunamis for that maps

[tender folio]

better go try it yourself if you don't like it. refund maybe (in case on Steam, not sure about others)

[foggy crest]

U can get better games than this don't waste your money

[lime flume]

Nah those are people who are whining only about the negative shit, no one is looking at the positive

[ashen wadi]

I was kinda expecting an avalanche

[queen hearth]

I couldn't care less about VOIP or Scoreboard

[sonic haven]

Maybe because there is little positive stuff dunno never played it

[lime flume]

Fr

[cosmic radish]

I got S level 3 weeks ago when I quit, nothing special or reward

[fierce gull]

You can see it more in breakthrough

[buoyant coyote]

it is good

[queen hearth]

... and I've played BF the last 20 years

[vestal grove]

Cool man you are not even a percent.

[lime flume]

Nah bro trust me, I’ve played it since the beta and the game has a lot of positive shit

[sonic haven]

I’ve seen a few streams and it looks good but i’d rather hold and get it when they drop more patches

[tame cobalt]

hmmm actually a good point. hovercraft and MAV are both amphibious so they don't have to make a ton of naval vehicles for a naval map. Big question is: can they actually make a naval map that people will want to keep playing

[lime flume]

People only look at the negative shit, they did the same with Battlefield 5 and now they’re praising it as this gift of god

[foggy crest]

Right move 👍

[buoyant coyote]

i like it it good

[unique oyster]

so 2042 getting new map

[tame cobalt]

Many

[tender folio]

also, maybe wait until they drop season 1 info or content .. if you're still unsure about it.

[fierce gull]

Maybe 2 new maps when the season pass comes out

[sonic haven]

Yea

[unique oyster]

in march
called exposure set in canada

[foggy crest]

Yes

[fierce gull]

Not confirmed in March

[tame cobalt]

Rather set your expectations more realistic 😶 1 map

[unique oyster]

its for season one one map per season

[lime flume]

Mark my words people gonna praise 2042 as this gift of god when the next battlefield comes out

[fierce gull]

I'm pretty sure someone like tom said 2 maps per season

[queen hearth]

It's patches (bug fixes) and configuration issues (game modes etc) that matter to me, I'm sure that's what they will focus on for Jan/Feb

[unique oyster]

will have landslide

[lime flume]

And about in summer next year they’re gonna love the game

[wild stag]

Look at season pass details ffs

[buoyant coyote]

i already do

[unique oyster]

i wouldnt complain if its really cheap

[cosmic radish]

Seasons come too late, everyone already gave up on Dice

[lone timber]

bf 2042 is mid

[tame cobalt]

Yeah but that was a while ago. Also, it could be 1 to 2 per season

[lime flume]

I don’t love it, it’s not a 10/10 but it’s not what people say it is

[queen hearth]

Given up? According to who, Steam stats? 😛

[lime flume]

the game literally came out 2-3 months ago

[fierce gull]

Welp would be cool if we had 2 maps but I hope the next map will be great

[lime flume]

tf you mean to late

[buoyant coyote]

worse part is somneone spawning right behind u in protal gun game

[vestal grove]

Hasn’t even been out two months yet.

[queen hearth]

Some issues they'll never fix, they existed in all prior BF - it's just more apparent in 2042. That is folk being Arnie / Rambo / lone wolf and not playing as squad or team - don't blame the maps, it's the actual players the problem.

[tame cobalt]

The issue is, people will want an infantry-focused or infantry-only map, and exposure seems vehicle focused or combined arms focused like orbital. So people will be unhappy even if it's a great map...

[lime flume]

FR

[fierce gull]

[lime flume]

Mark my words people gonna be praising this game once they realize the game is actually not a fucking 0/10 like they say it is

[buoyant coyote]

bro th e steam reiews r so innaccurate

[fierce gull]

They gonna praise it when the next battlefield comes out

[lime flume]

FACTS

[arctic grove]

the game still don't want to activate

[stiff pollen]

They gonna rumble

[tame cobalt]

Fuck the haters

[lime flume]

Bro they did it when 2042 came out as well, they praised BFV like the gift of mf Jesus Christ when it had a way worse launch

[frosty gorge]

There is nothing wrong with this play style if you have the skill to back it up, problem comes when you have 0.5kd players trying to lone wolf it and dying over and over wasting tickets rather than helping break the defenders etc etc

[queen hearth]

I've enjoyed it since alpha through to present, don't care what the Reddit/Steam hate train down voting muppets say

[frosty gorge]

Game has a lot of issues, but nowhere near as bad as its made out to be, its a solid 7/10 atm, just lacking content and needs a few fixes and changes

[lime flume]

Fr bro I played the open beta and I actually liked it so I bought it. For 60 bucks it’s brought me shit loads of fun

[worthy temple]

I like to flank with shields and ammo and toss smokes towards the front lines of the sectors in breakthrougn

[primal marten]

same here! its even my first ever battlefield rn i play bf1 and 2042

[queen hearth]

I'm 160 odd hours, level 105 and enjoying it as well - hence why I ignore all the unfounded hate towards the game

[vestal grove]

I want a scoreboard, VOIP, consistent hit register, and for the damn no load out glitch to stop. I’ll be good then.

[lime flume]

Yeah bro rn it’s a good 6.5 to 7/10, not the 0/10 people make it out to be

[jovial jay]

bruh is EA server having a stroke,I just disconnect to lobby twice

[buoyant coyote]

fax

[tame cobalt]

I don't want to play with the team when the team moves like a braindead mob in conquest. I usually go defend the objectives where my team isn't, trying to actually play the mode correctly while my team keeps being dumb

[jovial jay]

people in chat say half of their game left, then when they came back they said the same thing

[foggy crest]

3/10 for me

[frosty gorge]

One thing I want above all in bf2042 (other than more content) is for them to release a public api already

[lime flume]

Reasons?

[buoyant coyote]

9 out of 10 for me

[primal marten]

ye i saw a youtube vid today of a (i think) bf youtuber complaining the game is dead and he wishes for it to die. Well that video was uploaded a week ago and he i still making 2042 content xD

[tame cobalt]

I kinda wish there was a commander role, just to give team strategy.

[lime flume]

It’s not that good

[plain sand]

He said for HIM

[lime flume]

Fair

[fierce gull]

Commander would be cool for breakthrough

[buoyant coyote]

i lke it i would rate 10 ut matchmaking had problems some times

[foggy crest]

Game has insane potential but performance issues and I don't like gunplay of this game which is the most important thing for me or maybe anyone in any fps game ... These are my opinion and I hate fanboys

[queen hearth]

Performance issues on potato PC's or consoles (or both)?

No performance probs here - rubber banding was corrected @ server side by Dice way back

[plain sand]

I only had some bugs and the worst i had was that my game crashed once when i opened the map or that my T menu disappeared. Matchmaking well, its acceptable so ill give it a 7-8

[lime flume]

I’m not a fanboy, just someone who likes the game. The gun play is supposed to be more appealing towards newer players, hence why the gunplay is more like COD or Apex, because those games have a community who like the gun play

[foggy crest]

Games is not optimised

[tame cobalt]

No, I'm thinking conquest specifically. Conquest is in desperate need of team strategy. Breakthrough is pretty simple in comparison, it's mostly just about who wins the battle

[frosty gorge]

I think the gunplay is actually decent tbh, needs a few more small tweaks, would like a little bit more accuracy when moving while crouched, but overall its decent

[unique oyster]

they could have made it so good at least dont let everyone play specialists
killed bf5 and swbf2 for this

[foggy crest]

I don't like the gunplay

[buoyant coyote]

reasonable i have never crashed yet so i said 9

[queen hearth]

echan true, BF1 and BF5 are way more optimised but 2042 runs rather well given the sheer scale of the maps and players

[potent stirrup]

Man I just need a decent squad just got the game and it's so painful to play alone

[hollow pebble]

why did i have to go through the intro again... and recalibrate

[tame cobalt]

2042 gunplay is fantastic.

[queen hearth]

Room for improvement ofc but runs fine for me on PC

[lime flume]

That’s your opinion, but dice cares more about newer players since they can bring in a lot more of them compared to bringing in veterans

[plain sand]

Yeah it was only once though but being scared that it crashes again and so you dont want to open your map is a bit annoying but not unplayable xd
Bun in general i also think its really fun

[foggy crest]

Indie games nowadays have better feel of guns than what we have in 2042

[lime flume]

That’s just cap

[tame cobalt]

No other bf game's gunplay comes to 2042's except 5

[buoyant coyote]

yeah they added alot of stufff that wasnt in previous games witch makes it alot more fun

[lime flume]

5 has better gunplay IMO, it just feels clean

[queen hearth]

2042 feels like BF3 gunplay to me, which I liked (disliked BF4)

[lime flume]

Damn you disliked 4?

[foggy crest]

one guy here said gunplay is fantastic that's definitely a fanboy which is totally cap 🧢

[frosty gorge]

I prefer bf2042 gunplay much more than cod, apex etc etc only game better imo is csgo gunplay, but that's a different style of game completely

[lime flume]

Gunplay isn’t fantastic but 2042 has way better gunplay then indie games my guy your just coping rn

[plain sand]

Tbh i never played any bf before so i cant compare but i like it the way it is

[queen hearth]

Yeah - BF4 ruined the AN-94 weapon (ruined in 2042 portal currently too) - have 85k kills with AN-94 in BF3

[tranquil turtle]

When do you get the an94 in 3

[foggy crest]

U just played BF franchise I understand you bro 👍

[tame cobalt]

Lol the gunplay is seriously great, don't know what to tell you.

[tranquil turtle]

I want to try it

[fierce gull]

I like the gunplay in this game too

[lime flume]

Yeah alright bro you clearly haven’t seen BFV and 4 on launch

[foggy crest]

I am happy that you enjoying it 👍

[plain sand]

True, personally i love it

[naive quiver]

The gunplay is feel good in battlefield 2042 , just Optimization and bugs are still need rework

[lime flume]

True

[fierce gull]

I can't stop thinking about the teamwork I did with the jet last game

[buoyant coyote]

everything is great in this game i dont se why steam revies r so bad

[frosty gorge]

And needs a lot more content

[river salmon]

noob

[foggy crest]

I seriously don't care about another game launch

[fierce gull]

It just felt so good

[lime flume]

That’s true but give it some slack it just came out

[tame cobalt]

Gunplay has improved so much since launch

[queen hearth]

You just eat your takeaway and quit moaning about 2042 heli missile lock issues

[river salmon]

They bugged as hell

[frosty gorge]

Yeah, even still, 23 weapons at launch is embarrassing, even more so most of them have only 5 actual attachments with all others being duplicates

[plain sand]

Some ppl are mad now because they bought the game full prize and now its on discount due to christmas (everyone knew its gonna happen) and now they want 20 dollars refund😂😂😂

[queen hearth]

BF1 had tons of guns at launch right? Oh wait - no it didnt

[lime flume]

That I can agree with, that’s why I don’t give the game a 10/10, cause the guns themselves are bare

[buoyant coyote]

rbruh i purpsly waited to get it for christmas lol

[tame cobalt]

The weapon count at launch is perfect.

[lime flume]

Yes but the attachments on launch were a lot more different, every gun in 2042 has the same attachments with the same effects

[plain sand]

Same. Got it for 30 on instant

[frosty gorge]

Yup if they fixed the few remaining bugs, and tripled the content, this game would be a 8-9/10 for me

[buoyant coyote]

ima get prop night also

[desert flume]

I got scammed buying it for $40 usd

[queen hearth]

Point remains though, the gun count in 2042 isn't that bad compared to BF1 at launch?

[fierce gull]

I have a list of bugs that are gonna be fixed so far next patch if anyone wants it

[potent stirrup]

Man I bought it for 50 Canadian so I can't complain, it's not worth the full price

[lime flume]

Yeah they should’ve delayed it until late December probably, and tried to get more content out

[plain sand]

How did u get scammed?😂

[river salmon]

I mean, 3 sidearms, that's fairly bad IMO

[desert flume]

by preordering it for $40 usd

[frosty gorge]

Content and no public API, those are the biggest issues for me, can deal with the bugs if the game has stuff to do

[lime flume]

Why tf would you preorder

[desert flume]

dumb

[plain sand]

But why scam lul

[desert flume]

because the game is $10 value atm

[lime flume]

I bought it 3 days after the game came out cause it looked fun and it is IMO

[fierce gull]

Pffttt

[copper fulcrum]

It is

[frosty gorge]

3 sidearm is ight, 4 ARs and smgs thats bad

[south gull]

https://www.reddit.com/r/battlefield2042/comments/q324yo/list_of_missing_features_in_bf2042_compared_to/ I mean, people have good reasons why

[tame cobalt]

The 2042 launch gun count is perfect, period. Launching with more would just clutter your options. I vastly prefer starting with a smallish pool of weapons that all feel distinct and getting a feel for all of them before getting new ones.

[queen hearth]

Be a veteran, go hand to hand melee 😛

[lime flume]

True but hear me out, they only look at the negative

[radiant flint]

Im having a glitch

[south gull]

And what's the positive? That EA wants to make battlefield into Fortnite?

[lime flume]

Bro how can you even compare fortnite to 2042-

[fierce gull]

Some of the things in the list were added

[river salmon]

BF1 had loads of options when it came to melee weapons and weapons, BF2042 is just not on that standard

[radiant flint]

Where is tech support?

[south gull]

The intention

[frosty gorge]

Bruh, I unlocked all the attachments and got some good playtime on the all in 2 days.... most of them feel identical to each other at best, not saying 23 guns is awful, but its certainly embarrassing vs the 70 odd in bf4 off launch

[prisma anvil]

Someone said tech support?

[copper fulcrum]

The games both have guns, obviously making 2042 into a fortnite game

[lime flume]

They tryna turn it into a big scale COD which I respect

[radiant flint]

Yes.

[buoyant coyote]

mostly a;ll tiny stuff that dosnt matter that munch

[frosty gorge]

35-40 weapons would have been much better off of launch imo

[lime flume]

Eyo Terraria has a pistol so obviously it’s the same game as 2042

[foggy crest]

U from India ?

[tame cobalt]

Most of them feel identical? Then why do you want more?

[south gull]

Wdym battlefield already larger maps then anything in any cod ever?

[vestal grove]

🤣🤣🤣

[queen hearth]

There are several melee weapons in 2042

[prisma anvil]

What gave that away?

[vestal grove]

Gtfo now.

[lime flume]

Yeah but the gunplay is more like cod then previous BF’s

[south gull]

Yeah and a twitch shooter is a good idea?

[foggy crest]

nothing 👍

[lime flume]

tf does that supposed to mean

[frosty gorge]

Because it gives me a reason to keep playing to level up the weapons and hopefully find something that feels different to the other weapons in their class, I mean shit, 1 rpg off launch, thats not even funny

[river salmon]

such as?

[tender folio]

Merry Xmas (i know it's late but okay)

[fierce gull]

Battlefield copying Apex legends cuz you could see people through walls as if the military doesn't have that tech today

[tame cobalt]

The positive is that they aren't catering to the manchild part of the fanbase.

[prisma anvil]

Merry belated Christmas boyo

[lime flume]

Nah they copying Apex and cod cause those games have gunplay that are liked

[plain sand]

They also added sliding

[lusty creek]

InBFV

[tender folio]

[south gull]

Twitch shooter refers to high ttk which is what cod is, compare it to something like Halo which has a lower ttk

[plain sand]

Yeah but they reinvented it now and copied apex therefore

[copper fulcrum]

You got it the wrong way around there bud. Low TTK = Faster Time To Kill

[prisma anvil]

What's the overarching theme of the debate tonight?

[lime flume]

BFV has a high as fuck TTK, but that doesn’t mean the gunplay is the same as cod

[queen hearth]

4 x knives and 1 x hatchet?

[south gull]

You do realize dice wanted to make bad company 3 but had to do a battle royale due to demands from the company to chase already established trends right? Battlefield worked when it wasn't chasing trends

[copper fulcrum]

Except there's no Battle Royale in 2042

[tender folio]

review score about the game and preference about where franchise is going to.

[lime flume]

Hazard doesn’t exist I guess

[copper fulcrum]

Hazard Zone is not a Battle Royale

[fierce gull]

Hz is not br

[river salmon]

16 melee weapons on BF1 lol

[lime flume]

That’s cap

[prisma anvil]

Ah yes,

[frosty gorge]

Indeed, on paper 2042 ttk is much lower than cod, in reality it feels so much longer due to the gunplay, way more competitive and creates much more of a skill gap that cheaterzone

[old sundial]

Hey there everyone I was wondering if anyone could answer a question I have about BF2042

[copper fulcrum]

The objective isn't to be the last man standing, it's to extract.

[prisma anvil]

Go ahead

[queen hearth]

On launch? I think you are including the DLC's as well

[lime flume]

2042 has a lot faster paced gameplay then other BF’s, because they’re tryna be like COD and Apex, which like I said have liked gunplay

[jovial minnow]

[tender folio]

same topics but alright. lol it's fun

[lime flume]

Yeah but I don’t understand why people hating on 2042 for having a BR. Battlefield 5 had a BR and people liked it

[fierce gull]

Why do people think HZ is BR lol

[lime flume]

Cause it is-

[copper fulcrum]

People did not like Firestorm and Hazard Zone is not a BR lol

[wide shore]

It’s literally not a BR

[fierce gull]

BR is last squad standing HZ is not that

[lime flume]

Fair enough

[copper fulcrum]

It's an extraction based game mode, not a survival game mode

[old sundial]

Aight so I preordered bf2042 and I got the pack for xbox one and series s/x. I just got a series s for Christmas. And I was wondering if the series s version gets added on and its still 30 gb like it was on xbox one or if it gets pumped up to 50 gbs

[frosty gorge]

Indeed, if I go back to games I thought were fast paced a few years back like pubg, now they just feel slow and boring compared to cod, couldn't go back to that slower play style now, glad 2042 is adopting that style of gunplay while also trying to introduce a skill gap which cod lacks

[river salmon]

Not from that I can see, video title is called "MAIN" BF1 melee weapons

[lime flume]

True

[arctic grove]

haven't played HZ at all in my 100+ hours of gametime. is it really something that should be avoided

[lime flume]

Yes, it’s not very good

[south gull]

That's more objective to the opinion of the person itself, if you like cod movement then that's fine. But just because something has a cod-like gunplay or movement doesn't necessarily mean it's gonna work within another franchise. Sometimes franchises make better movement controls then even cod itself. Look at Titanfall 2 and compare it to black ops 3 or infinite

[arctic grove]

from context it feels similar to like EFT but without the AI

[jovial jay]

bruh bf crashed again, 4 time already in an hour, 2 time I got disconnect to lobby, 2 time ctd. lots of people reported the same thing

[prisma anvil]

The next gen version is a different game from the last gen version, thus it's a larger file size, a different install, also, other answers, no you can't play with last gen with the next gen version, yes you can download the last gen version on the next gen consoles

[queen hearth]

Then again, remember 2042 only actually had 9 months development work. It took the 'new' Dice staff 9 months to learn the basics of the Frostbite engine the 'old' and now left Dice staff made.

[old sundial]

ok thanks

[plain sand]

I tried to play but matchmaking said: no

[lime flume]

They trying something new because they tryna get players from cod and apex , and the gunplay reflects that which is similar to those games

[river salmon]

I know, but it is still their fault regardless. Game should have never been released in this state.

[lime flume]

That’s true

[queen hearth]

We all know that, but it is what it is. EA / Dice know they have to invest large amount of time and money to fix issues and add content, otherwise it's the death of the Battlefield franchise and the end of the Battlefield universe plan.

[south gull]

Yes but It can be argued that following those trends can also make you lose the identity you had for that franchise. And then you have consumers go "why do I need to by x game when I already have y game"

[vestal grove]

Exactly this.

[lime flume]

True but it’s a lot easier to get more newer players then older players

[river salmon]

Battlefield was it's own thing, that's why we all loved it. When you try and "fit" other markets into your pool it isnt the same anymore.

[frosty gorge]

Indeed, but so long as they concentrate on developing y game, not making new x games, its a great model, just look at warzone

[queen hearth]

The thing is the 'veterans' of Battlefield from 20 years ago (such as myself) are the minority now, the game mode has to evolve into a product that attracts the new generation of gamer.

[lime flume]

FR

[prisma anvil]

Fucking sad that innit?

[lime flume]

It’s a lot easier to get a newer audience

[prisma anvil]

But the hard part is keeping them,

[lime flume]

Not rly

[river salmon]

Why does it have to evolve though? It was and still is a success

[plain sand]

At some point you have to go with the trend at least a bit, to get new players. If you always rely on the old players, you are gonna lose playerbase after a while.

[lime flume]

Yup

[frosty gorge]

Content, simple as that, frequently updating keeps a player base

[prisma anvil]

It is, why would they stay?... What does 2042 have that those games don't?...

[south gull]

But you also got to make things fresh and new but also retain your identity, look at Titanfall 2 and how good that game was

[scarlet steeple]

[lime flume]

Big scale maps, Apex being a BR only cod being absolute trash

[arctic grove]

How can I play with my ps4 version friend when I’m on ps5 can someone help me

[river salmon]

I completely get that, IMO they went too far in if you get me, they set up this story of essentially WW3 yet have characters saying cringey shit at the end of the match lol, It seems like they wanted to cater to everyone

[frosty gorge]

Yeah this is a big issue too, doesn't sound like it is, but the lack of identity is a massive problem along with the lack of content

[queen hearth]

Simply because of EA. EA want a bigger slice of the Warzone / Fortnite / PUG G etc player base. And that meant dismay for the 'die hard' fans of the original BF (who number few), the game simply has to change to accommodate these new players (who number massively)

[river salmon]

100% agree with you, it is bare minimum

[lime flume]

Alright I think we can all agree, at least in my mind, that in due time 2042 will be seen as this gift of mf Jesus himself

[river salmon]

It's an explanation but not an excuse for the lack of identity and content.

[lime flume]

Because people always do with battlefield games

[scarlet steeple]

Definitely gonna take.. time

[frosty gorge]

Thats the problem, if they start adding and fixing stuff by early-mid season 1, 100%, if they continue to put stuff off, games going to die HARD

[lime flume]

Nah bro BFV was seen as trash until 2042 came out and now people saying it’s the gift of god himself

[river salmon]

We never knew how good we got it til something worse came along lol

[lime flume]

BFV isn’t bad but this community is so stupid that they only look at the negative

[queen hearth]

There is no lack of identity, those magical 'only in battlefield' moments still happen and you 'feel' it is BF. The specialists aren't going away, but EA / Dice could categorise them into classes. As for content, the content is there - it is just not configured well (server selection, game mode, player size etc)

[fierce gull]

They hated it cuz there was a women in the trailer

[lime flume]

COD vanguard is 20 times worse and the COD community is taking it 10x better then our community takes our new game

[lime flume]

FR BRO

[prisma anvil]

But the thing is, those guys you're trying to bring in, like those things, the guys who didn't already played bf or other games because they don't like those things.... That's the big issue, they're trying to bring in the crowd from those games by incorporating things and mechanics from those games to make the jump easier, but in turn they're loosing the identity that bf has, all the while alienating the core base that they already developed over many years...evolution has to be there, I know, but they took it a bit too far for one jump

[lime flume]

Yeah but they don’t rly care about old players because they’re a minority compared to new players

[manic temple]

You have to admit though the trailer for bfV was… weird

[queen hearth]

Or do you mean missing content as in VOIP or scoreboard which only matter to the minority but not the majority of players? Sure scoreboard is handy for cheater spotting as well as K/D but I don't mind not having it.

[foggy crest]

cod vanguard isnt worse its just nothing special

[lime flume]

It is a lot worse then 2042

[frosty gorge]

Indeed, putting specialists in classes with weapon restrictions, at least in all out warfare, would fix so many issues, unrestricted specialists work in hazard zone, but just leads to too many lone wolfs in all out warfare

[river salmon]

The music is glitched out to support the story of "its WW3, it's us or them" The stories you get before every match describe the desperation of it all. Then you finish the match " THAT WAS SOMETHING RIGHT?, I TOLD YOU TO KEEP UP"

[prisma anvil]

Ah yes, our saviour angel, deliver us oh great one

[scarlet steeple]

You know it lol

[foggy crest]

here i totally disagree a typical battlefield fan and cod hater u told me u are not fanboy 😂

[frosty gorge]

Scoreboard I agree isnt too bad, but voip is essential in a squad based game, so is a public api for people who care about their stats

[south gull]

I think also adding a larger amount of US/RU bots to the field to make the specialists stand out more could help because it's two nations fighting each other not just the Non-pats

[lime flume]

COD hater? Bro I played a shit ton of MW and Black Ops zombies. Have you even seen Vanguard?

[prisma anvil]

Yep, welcome to what's pissed off a huge amount of the core guys, its too different for the core guys, and it lacks enough identity and uniqueness for the new guys,

[river salmon]

Scoreboard is extremely important, as is a chat for ALL people, not just your team

[fierce gull]

I only look at scoreboard to look at my kills so I don't really care

[queen hearth]

I agree but these are cosmetic and daft comments made by the specialists characters - that can easily be taken out completely before and after matches. The music is pretty dire, no matter the story line.

[prisma anvil]

How ya doing luv?.. had a nice Christmas?

[foggy crest]

have seen definitely and i dont think its worse at all yeah its nothing special , is it a good game no its very okayish kind of game doing exactly same thing since 2003

[frosty gorge]

If I had to choose between a scoreboard or an API, I choose the api 100% of the time, voip I agree is 100% essential

[scarlet steeple]

Ahah, hey ^^ well as a non-practicing Islamic, new years is bigger for me xD but I still got couples things from coworkers to feel special lol. Hope you enjoyed yours!!!

[lime flume]

Bro, Vanguard has a lot more problems then 2042, and they’re sure as shit not getting fixed. Like 1 shotting shot guns running around at Mach 10, hackers, glitches, other broken guns

[quick bridge]

in this game u cant even play with sniper everyone can see you with this lightning

[prisma anvil]

I got a boatload of garlic bread for christmas, so yeah.... One of the best days of the year

[fierce gull]

They have dragon breath shotguns too in vanguard?

[foggy crest]

broken guns is always a thing with cod and that gets fixed

[lime flume]

Yup and there is a pump that 1 shots and a automatic shotgun that can 2 shot

[queen hearth]

Poor Broken Machine got taken out by that very 1 shot shotgun .. he was speechless and in disbelief. I raised my hands to bask in the glow of his hatred of the game at that very moment

[fierce gull]

[copper fulcrum]

I doubt they're going to be fixing the dual wield double barrel

[frosty gorge]

Bruh of my 130 hours, at least 100 are with the dxr and sws, you can 100% play with snipers lmao

[scarlet steeple]

Ahaha, I hope it was from olive garden ❤️

[lime flume]

Fr bro snipers are not that bad in 2042

[foggy crest]

i heard pp was also broken in 2042 that everyone was using it once

[queen hearth]

They are indeed bad if they just sit at the first spawn point and snipe their 3 kills and use drones

[frosty gorge]

Bruh snipers are the best weapons, especially the sws, that mfker is broken from 25m till 800m lmao

[quick bridge]

next time before u answering read what someone wrote

[lime flume]

Difference is dice fixes and Activision doesn’t

[copper fulcrum]

Sega does what Nintendon't

[prisma anvil]

No olive garden in these parts of the water luv, but yes, they were sublime, some of them were even, get this, stuffed with cheese and pepperoni, gods I'm gonna have a hard time getting on the scale in Jan

[frosty gorge]

"in this game u cant even play with sniper everyone can see you with this lightning" bruh read what you typed yourself

[prime oracle]

it was at launch

[scarlet steeple]

Was a very strong and accurate pp until it got a cold shower

[foggy crest]

they will fix it dont worry

[copper fulcrum]

🥁

[prisma anvil]

Pp not too strong anymore

[lime flume]

Yeah sure bro tell yourself that

[iron blade]

[foggy crest]

ok

[quick bridge]

yes im talking about the lightning and that everyone can see you with this doesnt matter the distance thats what im saying and u writing some bullshit

[scarlet steeple]

What the heck lol, wow, never tried that, kinda sounds good. I loveee pepperoni 😆 luckyy

[rocky cedar]

Bloody hell did you know about SPAWNINg with WASD? https://youtu.be/idR0D00F7g4

[copper fulcrum]

Also remember this is Sledgehammer we're talking about. CoD WWII still has launch glitches like being unable to spawn for the rest of the match and extremely loud ear-rape announcer lines

[prisma anvil]

"A BOMB HAS BEEN PLANTED ON OUR AMMO SUPPLY!!!!"

[iron blade]

THE ENEMY IS BUILDING A BRIDGE

[foggy crest]

my BF1 still doesnt launch from steam i have to try 2-3 attempts

[frosty gorge]

You said you cant use a sniper because of the lightning (which is probably the stupidest excuse I have ever heard from someone who is clearly a bad player btw), if I have spent 80% of my time on this game using snipers and still average a 6+kd I'm pretty sure they are more than usable

[arctic grove]

servers seem to have improved alot this week

[copper fulcrum]

BRAVO IS PUSHING BACK

[prisma anvil]

[foggy crest]

they are building the bridge

[quick bridge]

i dont even care about ur kd hahahahaha u kid hahahahaa

[prisma anvil]

Now now, let's not hurt each other in the confusion

[frosty gorge]

Bruh, imagine complaining that you can't use an entire class of weapons due to fucking lightning lmao

I can't even

[fierce gull]

That's kinda of a shit excuse ngl

[arctic grove]

imma be level 232 soon enough. lolol

[fierce gull]

You need to find a good spot if you wanna snipe

[quick bridge]

omg pls u have no brain can you continue ur stuff im not dropping in this such of iq that u have im higher than u

[frosty gorge]

For real man, actually hilarious

[frosty gorge]

This guy, actually such a bad troll its low key funny, love it man

[arctic grove]

people always running and instasnipping me lol

[fierce gull]

Orbital is my favorite place to snipe cuz I can use Casper to match with the grass when it rains

[prisma anvil]

Depends on the platform, sniping on pc is easier, console is harder, waaay harder if you're playing cross platform lobbies

[vestal grove]

I think he is talking about the glare from the scope. Which idk why because it’s been in the game for quite a while now

[fierce gull]

No glares would be broken

[river salmon]

It was in the game in BF3 lol

[frosty gorge]

Yup, glare is essential

[fierce gull]

People would legit cry if there were no sniper glares

[queen hearth]

Its cute thinking you can be invisible on map .. some of the suppressors in 2042 are broken and don't work at all.

[river salmon]

Spot the COD player

[quick bridge]

i think u have dont have any idea about sniping in real life and have no idea how it is in real life xD

[fierce gull]

This is battlefield not real life

[spring vessel]

Its a video game bro

[frosty gorge]

I aint saying sniping is easy, I'm saying saying you can't snipe because of lightning is a terrible excuse, pretty sure it is an issue with the player not the lightning lmao

[river salmon]

Man really compared a video game to real life

[iron blade]

BF is not real life lmfao

[prisma anvil]

And here we go with sniping in a game isn't like real life

[fierce gull]

I can litteraly call in a tank and drive off a building with no damage taken

[arctic grove]

lies

[scarlet steeple]

Ever since bad company I think, right?

[fierce gull]

Might as well hit a heli while falling

[slate meadow]

lies bro bf2042 in the most realist war experience since bf5 and its robot arm women

[prisma anvil]

Ah yes, it was the lighting that was holding back the sniper rifles... Yes, thank you random person for finding the true solution

[quick bridge]

so dont talk to me bullsht then i know how it was on bf4 i had 5k hours and most of my hours was sniping

[iron blade]

Glare is kinda essential for long distance sniping. Good for balancing

[river salmon]

had a stroke reading that

[frosty gorge]

Hahaha for real man, its those tornados blowing my bullets off course I swear I aint missing, I'm too good to miss

[scarlet steeple]

Lmao

[vestal grove]

I think so or BF3. I can’t remember it has been a long time haha

[iron blade]

Wtf did i just read

[prisma anvil]

Nah nah, I'm just not taking the coriolis effect into consideration when shooting at the enemy

[arctic grove]

How do you obtain the life ring player card

[plain sand]

True, the cringy voicelines in the end are not necessary, if they wouldnt say anything it would be best

[queen hearth]

[plain sand]

Ary for late reply inwas eating xd

[quick bridge]

ur problem

[frosty gorge]

Haha lmao, yeah just gotta account for the multiple cross winds while I'm shooting this guy 50 meters away is all

[iron blade]

The only time ive disliked sniper glares is when i get a heart attack when i see one on a hill lookin right at me

[river salmon]

100% I agree, also the unnecessary screaming they do, gives me a headache 😂

[copper fulcrum]

Anyone else thought that the lighthouse on Renewal was just a huge sniper glare/glint?

[iron blade]

Sorry idk why that pinged

[river salmon]

Ok COD player

[queen hearth]

Oh dear ..

[prisma anvil]

Sorry m8, I just had the dummy rounds attachment equipped no wonder I wasn't hitting anything

[plain sand]

Wait screaming? When haha i cant remember

[slate meadow]

id like to see a real life end screen where the vets evenutally end up homeless and not looked after by there country and then just a single gunshot and it all goes silent

[prisma anvil]

Yes, have done, will continue to do

[frosty gorge]

Hahaa nah I just tactically forgot to reload, just giving the other player a chance is all

[tender pilot]

out of context
