battlefield-2042

[humble palm]

could i join you and try to find a hazard zone match? right now im unsure if me not finding hz games is regional issue or matchmaking issue

[fierce gull]

it's on?

[cold galleon]

ye

[lean atlas]

Sure dm me your name

[tame cobalt]

BATTLEFIELD 2042 SEASON 1 HYPE

[fierce gull]

weird what gamemode?

[river trench]

Too early

[prisma anvil]

nah bf1 is 160, and all after bf1 are also 160, but bfv is a bit worse than 1, in bf1 even at 160+ technically your bullets wouldnt disappear, you'd just have to find the lead, there were some around the corners deaths but you could be faster and get to cover faster, but for 5, cuz the ttk is faster and from my testing atleast, a lot of bullets tend to disappear at higher pings, i generally recommend no more than 150ms for bfv, sauce: i played 230+ms on bf1 for a year on us servers

[tame cobalt]

[cold galleon]

i tried breakthrough and conquest no matches

[low solstice]

Lf2 on ps4 with mic be pretty decent at the game

[raven smelt]

Dude replied to his own message fml.

[hollow berry]

is the AA bug fixed yet on the nightbird?

[tame cobalt]

230 ping in bf1 after that update? bruh

[hollow berry]

or can they still avoid all missiles

[tame cobalt]

Based.

[shadow arch]

i am now playing as Angel, boris, and FALCK, in the orbital map, in conquest

the match is about to start it just started the countdown

[radiant echo]

Have fun there

[tame cobalt]

so above 100 ping you have to lead your shots and above 160 you're basically fucked? in new bfs

[tame cobalt]

New to 2042?

[prisma anvil]

yeah, it wasnt that bad, only issue was close range with a full auto as you basically had to guess where the enemy hitbox would be in 2 seconds, before firing, it was funny to do that full auto weapons,....also, no, you have to lead after you cross 160ms, thats why i said at anything equal to or below 150ms, you wont feel a lot of difference,

[shadow arch]

no ive been playing it some time , im on level 40

[tame cobalt]

Pog. Do you agree orbital is a good 128 player conquest map?

[crystal gust]

What’s the best mode to gain xp as a beginner

[oak canyon]

use m5a3 with short range rounds

[tame cobalt]

ahh that sounds painful.

nice, really hope my EU ping will be under 160 after i get fibre 🤞

[oak canyon]

youll laser someone

[prisma anvil]

whats your region again?..

[tame cobalt]

South Africa

I read the best possible ping i can get to EU is 140 due to the limitation of the speed of light 😶

[prisma anvil]

ahhhhh, you were the south africa guy, dude,

[tame cobalt]

Unless they make fibre cables go through the center of the earth

[tame cobalt]

Maybe 😶

[prisma anvil]

south africa really is boned when it comes to nearby servers, all the big names are too far away,

[tame cobalt]

yep

[prisma anvil]

atleast us asians can connect to japan and eu

[tame cobalt]

Now with 2042 lack of server browser and region locking it's especially bad

[prisma anvil]

i mean you can get around it, but yes, its pain for anyone not in the us or eu

[low solstice]

Lf2 on ps4 with mic be pretty decent at the game

[tame cobalt]

When a new mode is added, it gets played for 3 days then it dies and the only option is conquest large

[prisma anvil]

the pain you guys experience is similar to the guys in russia...

[tame cobalt]

Rip

Add server browser pls

Don't wanna pay for vpn just because one game doesn't have a server browser

[silk jasper]

might be too much work for the devs..

[prisma anvil]

you dont need a vpn

[tame cobalt]

[prisma anvil]

just need friends who are from the eu and play 2042

tho that has its downsides too, you basically become dependent on them playing the game to be able to play the game

[tame cobalt]

[dapper river]

"Hey uber congrats on reaching S001! Have a settings reset"

[prisma anvil]

the game matchmakes you into the server of the squad lead's nearest servers....so you just need a eu guy as the squad lead

[dapper river]

can't, I'm stuck against a wall and facing it

[fresh vessel]

im on the edge of buying bf2042 lol, like it seems enjoyable with people but then you need the people to play with and i don't got that kekW

[tame cobalt]

Poggins
Still need server browser doe

[dapper river]

I primarily play solo and i still find it fun

[tender folio]

omg, am I dreaming?

[clear bloom]

iron sight sniping is fun

[prisma anvil]

yes we do, its a necessary thing to keep the game alive in lower population regions...especially for the long term health of the game

[tender folio]

[tame cobalt]

The bf1 experience

[shadow arch]

THe match ended

[tame cobalt]

💯

[clear bloom]

"oo look at that lens flare, would be a shame if I shot at it"

[tame cobalt]

Do u agree orbital is one of the best 128 player conquest maps?

[fresh vessel]

believe it or not Orbital is my favourite conquest map

[prisma anvil]

maybe, try shooting yourself, that might wake ya up, just in case it isnt a dream, you get to re roll and might not end up in a third world country next time

[tender folio]

Civilized conversation over here ... is this a dream?

[prisma anvil]

no this is patrick

[tame cobalt]

It's really great in that mode. Captures the battlefield magic extremely well imo

[shadow arch]

Until my dad came in with his brother on the phone and my dad wanted to show his brother what footage of bf2042looks like

[tender folio]

[bright token]

hello yes i advocate self forever sleep

[shadow arch]

but i chose not to and shoo'd my dad from the gaming room

aka the basement with a ps4

[prisma anvil]

[tender folio]

back to sleep now, bye bye ... have a nice day all.

[prisma anvil]

goodnight

[shadow arch]

wake up jo byedn

[crystal gust]

What is the best game mode to get XP

[prisma anvil]

breakthrough

[sudden wasp]

is bf2042 an enjoyable game?

[tame cobalt]

Conquest

[crystal gust]

Okay thank you

[craggy marten]

Not at all right now.

[arctic grove]

🤣

[tame cobalt]

💯

[shadow arch]

now im gonna search for another match and also play as angel, falck, and boris

[craggy marten]

It's fun at first but it will get immediately boring after 3 matches.

[arctic grove]

hes trolling

[shadow arch]

i can talk while the game is loading and searching for a match

[fresh vessel]

im bouta buy a domino's and bf2042 lol, so tempted

[tame cobalt]

On ps4?

[sudden wasp]

yay

[shadow arch]

yes

[sudden wasp]

mhm

[tame cobalt]

Cool beans

[prisma anvil]

how about this, 2 domino's and no bf 2042?

[fresh vessel]

that's a monkaS moment there, what about 0 domino's and 0 bf2042

[tame cobalt]

What about 0 dominos and 2 bf2042

[wild barn]

Why won’t it let me update to the next gen graphics?

[shadow arch]

the ps4 will be remembered as part of the longest spanning console ever, with support lasting for one decade

[prisma anvil]

counter argument, domino's has garlic bread, 2042 doesnt

[fresh vessel]

counter counter argument, i don't like garlic bread

[prisma anvil]

you heathen

[craggy marten]

What about 0 life, 0 pizza, 0 Battlefield, 50,000,000,000 FNAF Security Breach copies.

[wild barn]

I bought the physical version of bf2042 and it’s only showing the Xbox one version on my series x

[fresh vessel]

kekW

[shadow arch]

and the match i chose just started and boris told me to shut up and pay attention, so i gotta go Brb when match ends

[prisma anvil]

will i finally figure out how the bite of 87 happened then?

[tame cobalt]

[shadow arch]

the match is conquest in breakaway

[craggy marten]

Never.

[wild barn]

What?

[tame cobalt]

[bleak ferry]

Cod is much better than call of dutu

[craggy marten]

You'll get a boring game that looks way worse than the first damn game instead. @prisma anvil

[tame cobalt]

🆗

[wild barn]

Why won’t it let me update

[prisma anvil]

pain

[craggy marten]

Get trolled Bozo.

[tame cobalt]

idk

[prisma anvil]

you bought the series x physical disk right?...just making sure

[wild barn]

Yeah if you want I’ll send a screenshot of it

[prisma anvil]

nah just checking

thats honestly weird, the physical disk shouldnt allow you to get the last gen versions

[wild barn]

Shouldn’t?

Wtf so I need to buy the game digitally just to get the next gen version

[prisma anvil]

i mean the next gen discs shouldnt allow you to install the last gen versions,

[wild barn]

Even though I’ve spent money on the physical version and on the top it literally says Xbox series x

[prisma anvil]

nah nah nah, you bought correctly

if its a next gen disc it shouldnt allow you to download the last gen version anyway, you only get to install the next gen versions

[wild barn]

I sent you a dm showing it

[prisma anvil]

yeah i see, thats honestly weird,

[languid bramble]

@prisma anvil u got bf2042?

[wild barn]

It’s fucked up that I won’t be able to play the 64 vs 64 mode

[prisma anvil]

i didnt buy it, but i played it through console sharing

[languid bramble]

how much

[arctic grove]

You do know old and next gen do both have 64 mode

[prisma anvil]

last i played was like end of november...havent played it yet in december

[wild barn]

That’s not what I said I said the next gen version has 126 players or some shit and the old gen only has 64

[arctic grove]

next gen also has 64

[wild barn]

Ik

[arctic grove]

?

[wild barn]

But I wanna play the 126 player mode

[arctic grove]

just download?

[wild barn]

What I am so confused

[oblique ocean]

anyone else not able to zoom their main weapon after deploying into land vehicle and exiting?

[prisma anvil]

can you play any 128 man modes kyle?....when you launch the game that is,

[arctic grove]

go in the xbox store and download the other gen edition

[wild barn]

I thought that was a next gen only feature

[arctic grove]

when u purchase it once doesnt matter which one u buy u get both of them

[wild barn]

Wait 1 sec

[arctic grove]

idk

[stiff spruce]

[wild barn]

It won’t let me

[prisma anvil]

i mean youre on series x right kyle?...if so, if youve installed it, try to see if you can search for 128 man All out warfare, i'm on ps5 so its a bit different for me, so its kinda hard to relate

[wild barn]

But when I looked at the series x enhanced thing where you can see all the games that are next gen enhanced it didn’t come up with bf2042

[prisma anvil]

just see if you can get into a 128 player All out warfare game

[wild barn]

It’s only letting me see 64 player

[arctic grove]

I just read the upgrade is only possible with the digital edition

[wild barn]

Wtfff

[prisma anvil]

hmmm....kyle question, how much did you pay?...

[wild barn]

£50

[arctic grove]

u can google it

[edgy oriole]

you on ps4 or xbox 1?

[prisma anvil]

more specifically, was it discounted from 60$ or 70$?

[wild barn]

Xbox series x

[edgy oriole]

oh rip idk.

[wild barn]

It was discounted

[arctic grove]

u can get the digital edition for like 35 or 40

[prisma anvil]

yes i know, but you know they slash through the previous price and put a new price on the screen?....what was that previous price,

[wild barn]

I can’t remember

[prisma anvil]

if you got it recently, check the original listing, see what the original price it was discounted from, whether it was discounted from 60$ to 50$ or whether it was from 70$ to 50$

you might have received a wrong version disk

[wild barn]

I might return it

[prisma anvil]

https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/xbox/forum/all/game-discs-wont-install-the-series-x-version-of/879f5b65-197f-4a9e-bd9d-04d73838c5d2

here's a post thats basically your issue, thats why i am asking you to check

[arctic grove]

battlefield 2042 is cheap af rn on the egs, they have a free £10 coupon available for christmas

i got the game for just £22

i think thats equivalent to like 30 usd

[shadow arch]

the match i was on ended, here is what happened

[wild barn]

I am gonna return the game then cause this is bull that we have to pay extra just to be able to play with the next gen version when other company’s are giving it as a free next gen update it’s pure greed

[winged rune]

can you not party up with people on a different platform then?

[wild barn]

No clue I feel cheated that I can’t play next gen when I literally own a next gen console

[arctic grove]

This game sucks

[arctic grove]

just give it back to the store where u got it from and then buy it online

[wild barn]

I don’t have money left to buy it digitally plus this was bought with my Christmas money

[prisma anvil]

oi

[nova patrol]

ANGEL DOES IT AGAIN

[prisma anvil]

i figured it out, kyle, you bought the wrong version, @wild barn you got the xbox one standard edition disk

[wild barn]

I didn’t know that as it said up top series x

[prisma anvil]

look, i'll send ya an image

[shadow arch]

what happened is that 1,I got the naval diffuse skin for the m5c bolte (even though i did not unlock it yet), near the very end of the match, I was playing angel, and i had a ranger on my side and what i witnessed was the most hardest and bloodiest defense ever in the history of battlefield conquest, the defense north of objective c1 was the hardest ever in the breakaway map, and my team succeeded to defend it but that also caused the Enemies points to drop from 120-115 all the way to 95-55, while my team was at 35-11 points, Very impressive, and i got revived many times and the other way around, and i leveled up to 41 (almost)

[nova patrol]

thats cool

[shadow arch]

what would you do if you were in my team(the usa) at the same time,location, objective, and setting, as I was when i played angel

[lone nexus]

lfg

[nova patrol]

i shot someone 2 times in the stomache with the NTW-500 from 2 meters away and he didnt die

[edgy oriole]

thats the next gen hit reg feature.

[nova patrol]

i only gave him vehicle hitmarkers even though he wasnt in one

[late juniper]

what gamemode should I be playing to get in fastest

[oak canyon]

i only found out that sundance has smart grenades

my favorite specialist

[prisma anvil]

bruuhhh

[nova patrol]

someone needs to nerf angels optimism

[oak canyon]

i got first place in captures last game

[arctic grove]

I got 2 ranger kills last game

[alpine gate]

is it just me or is the scar bugged as shit?

[arctic grove]

I closed the door last game

[nova patrol]

i threw a grenade

[arctic grove]

Any news on upcoming maps? We only have 7 atm... And it's getting boring to always play the same 3 maps

I finally made it into the endscreen of the match! I reloaded my gun!

outstanding performance

[nova patrol]

im not overconfident

just better than everyone else

[wide violet]

someone with a german name would say that

[nova patrol]

ja

[silk jasper]

Well well well that was fun

[lethal reef]

Don’t think there’s any new maps until March

[arctic grove]

Damn.

[lethal reef]

Yeah it comes out with the season pass in March 2022, should be getting some updates early next year hopefully

[arctic grove]

So season pass maps? So people without the year pass don't get new maps?

[arctic grove]

maps will be for free

Oh good

seasonpass is just skins

[lethal reef]

I’m not 100% sure how they work if I’m honest but the maps should be free just like the 100 tiers of the battle pass won’t be

[arctic grove]

Imagine if they asked money for more maps

[lethal reef]

That’d be a rip off lol

[arctic grove]

nah new guns and maps will be for free

just cosmetics u need to pay for

[wide violet]

shout out to the premium days

[nova patrol]

good, i couldnt play Kaleidoskope for all eternity

[arctic grove]

This game needs maps, vehicles, guns, bugfixes and something new to do

[lethal reef]

I did pay for the most expensive one.. unfortunately 🤕😫

[arctic grove]

Hahaha

[lethal reef]

I’m not trying to promote anything , but I do YouTube , what content are you guys interested in most or you would like to see?

[arctic grove]

This game has great potential but it needs more work. If it's still like this by March i'm done

[lethal reef]

I 100% agree I worry the game will be dead by March if we have to wait until then

[arctic grove]

True

[nova patrol]

i paid for preorder and didnt get the dino

[grave prism]

dont care didnt ask

[jade grotto]

What do you mean by that… 🧐

[arctic grove]

Yeah you didn't. Neither did I ask for your toxic reply so shush

[grave prism]

okay

[jade grotto]

I asked him for it tho

[arctic grove]

What vehicle do you guys play most and why?

[nova patrol]

Osprey, cuz its cool

[lethal reef]

I use tanks because they’re OP

[grave prism]

i only use jet at start of round to kamikaze

[arctic grove]

I like the bolte actually. It's good in breaktrough

[lethal reef]

The bolt being nerfed takes to long to kill now I don’t like

[arctic grove]

When did it get nerfed? Previous update?

[nova patrol]

yes

[arctic grove]

Started to use it about a week ago so didn't notice haha

[robust ember]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[nova patrol]

i dont know

[arctic grove]

I'll just say it like this battlefield 2042 should remain spinoff series

[candid cosmos]

hmmmm should i upgrade to a 10700k or wait for the next CPU

[hazy sun]

wait

[nova patrol]

god i cant wait for Battlefield 2242

[arctic grove]

If you are getting kills for a badge for a gun. Does throwing a proximity sensor for getting assists count towards the gun badge or the sensor badge?

[arctic grove]

Lol it be like Halo

[candid cosmos]

Battlefield 40k when

[nova patrol]

with or without the russians ?

[quiet pawn]

Team Slayer

[tall dome]

the VCAR god has found a new weapon

[arctic grove]

We don't know who in in year 2210

[tall dome]

i am not the AK god

[nova patrol]

or Panasian coalition ?

[candid cosmos]

in the grimdark future, Angel does it again

[tall dome]

you know whats funny, we would never go to war with russia

why cant we have US vs china

[candid cosmos]

not directly, itll take a BIG mess up for that to happen

[tall dome]

we got with russia on the whole isis issue

[nova patrol]

US vs France ? what if they destroyed Paris in Bf3 ?

[tall dome]

but russia kept bombing tf out of syria

[safe inlet]

Hey we share that in common now

[nova patrol]

US vs a single Tuk-Tuk

[fierce gull]

I think china got defeated in this battlefield

[candid cosmos]

BF3 yes?

[fierce gull]

I think in BF4 as well

[nova patrol]

what about 2042?

[thin bronze]

2042 is the events after 4.

[fierce gull]

^

[arctic grove]

Kick his ass no pants

[nova patrol]

so they got defeated twice ? first by america and then by climate change ?

[analog stirrup]

How's the hero shooter, guys? Any updates recently?

[edgy oriole]

next battlefield should be like tom clancys endwar. this has been my ted talk

[thick copper]

5 more days to clownfield

[silk jasper]

Dont be sad this is just how it works out sometimes

[analog stirrup]

Clownfield looks great, it's on my wishlist

[nova patrol]

lets make the impossible possible

[silk jasper]

Probably more effort put into clownfield than ea did into 2042...

[analog stirrup]

Easily

[thin bronze]

In 3 it was a lone russian who wanted to start a new war, 4 china was trying was going hard to emp everyone. i dunno which ending is canon

[candid cosmos]

cant wait to yell at the screen again

[thick copper]

if the impossible is possible then its not impossible in the first place

[stiff spruce]

[solar moss]

i cant wait for battlefield 4242

[arctic grove]

🤡 field 2042 😂😂😂

🤡field 2042 has no passion

[fast wave]

I want to love it but I just don't

[arctic grove]

Lol 🤡 field 20-42 fps sounds meme Worthy

[edgy oriole]

I ran into the loadout bug. i will officially be changing sides of supporting 2042 to the enemy side.
thank you.

[arctic grove]

What do you mean by loadout bug? Which one?

[edgy oriole]

game resets all skins/resets first 4 loadouts with original loadouts. so you have to remake/customize evverything

[arctic grove]

Ah yes. I've had that one a few times too

Yo anyone else experiencing lag on bf2042 xbox series x ?

If you play hz somethimes it doesn't lod your attachments on your weapons.

[drowsy sapphire]

Has the 3 big updates already come out for 2042?

[frosty gorge]

I've actually never had that happen in over 100 hours, that sucks

[arctic grove]

Something triggers it but I didn't figure out what yet

[edgy oriole]

i think theyve only done 2 updates and a hotfix befoer they went on christmas break

[frosty gorge]

weird, hope that never happens to me haha

[arctic grove]

What are you on? Psn? Pc? Xbox?

[frosty gorge]

PC

[arctic grove]

Ah. Yeah different platform. Different issues haha

[frosty gorge]

unfortunately just as many though haha

[arctic grove]

Yea. They have a lot of work to do. I've played every battlefield but if they keep messing up and don't fix it soon I'm going to quit the game

[low solar]

I have almost no issues with the game on PC. The issues I see are PEBCAK

[frosty gorge]

I have high hopes for it, but I agree, if they dont get some content in soon a lot of people are going to get bored

[frosty gorge]

PEBCAK?

[low solar]

Problem Exists Between Chair And Keyboard

[arctic grove]

I've played since release and with only a few maps, vehicles and guns I'm getting bored haha.

[arctic grove]

🤡 field 2042 😂😂

[frosty gorge]

Ah haha, if only, unfortunately I have an interesting little issue where I get the ADS bug 100% of the times I use vehicles now, not ideal at all

[arctic grove]

Graphics are good tho. But there is a lot of stuff missing that previous battlefields had

[low solar]

I’m not tryna start problems but this type of take just says how entitled and how much gamers live in a bubble. The game is already close to dead. Lowest player base on PC and not even top 10 for consoles. Game is on equal footing with Cyberpunk on release

[arctic grove]

Cyber field 2042

[low solar]

I think I replied to the wrong person sorry Grezju lol

[arctic grove]

Hate to say it but it's true. If they don't fix everything that has to be fixed or implemented it's game over

[tame cobalt]

[frosty gorge]

that said, look cyberpunk now a year after release, playerbase has boomed recently due to an influx of returning players, the hype for BF2042 was just as strong if not more so than cyberpunk and its only been out for a month in its current state, with a bit of effort I hope for it to make a come back too, if not a stronger one than cyberpunk

[drowsy sapphire]

Ah

[arctic grove]

Battlefield 2042 still has a chance if DICE get it together to fix EA mistake of an idea

[nova canopy]

so cyberpunked is all the way fixed?

[frosty gorge]

its "fixed", its not the open world game people hoped for, but as it is, its now a very solid story game similar to FarCry 6 in game play

[arctic grove]

Remember EA thinks "trends" = more money and players

[nova canopy]

nice

[low solar]

It will. Battlefields are notorious for being good a year after launch. Only issue is that when it’s finally in a good state they’ve already abandoned it for the next failure of a project they’re working on. Instead of persisting with a game that’s in a good state they just repeat the process again and again.

[nova canopy]

perfect ill wait til game pass lol

[low solar]

Pretty much

[arctic grove]

Hahaha

[rapid thunder]

Me buying the gold edition 🤡

[nova canopy]

yep gonna just play V and 4 for now.

[arctic grove]

Imagine if you bought the ultimate edition

[low solar]

Same. We pre paid for the seasons at like a $5 discount pretty much lol

[urban olive]

Did we get anything good for the game this Christmas?

[frosty gorge]

See this is what I hope they learn not to do, look at warzone the reason it succeeded was not because its a particularly great game, purely it came out when there was nothing else new to play so grew a playerbase quickly, they put out constant content and update it frequently to maintain the player base, put out skins for the casuals, and allow (limited) access to their API for the leaderboard grinders. As much as I hate warzone in gameplay now, their marketing model is perfect

[arctic grove]

Image with merry 2042 and a tag

[nova canopy]

yeah this guy on reddit was pissed because he spent 100 preorder. or to put in his words he wasted 100 dollars lol

[urban olive]

Oh right, it's nice looking

[low solar]

I wish they kept that with MW2019 in general. Such a solid cod game only to go back to the shit show that was Cold War and now Vanguard

[frosty gorge]

Agreed, MW2019 warzone was perfect towards the end, then CW led to almost a year of crap to finally get "ok", then vanguard comes and ruins it once again

[arctic grove]

The idea of hazard zone is fun but 80% of the time you're playing against bot teams now

Because no new content or things to do

[frosty gorge]

Yeah HZ needs a lot of work to it

[urban olive]

they need to make it like CS:GO then it would be fun

[low solar]

I couldn’t get into Hazard zone. Trying to hard to be a Battle Royale without calling it a Battle Royale . Super weird

[frosty gorge]

Eh I like the mode, and I like the concept, my biggest issue is simply the lack of reason to play it, win one game, you have enough credits instantly for 10 games :/

[river willow]

can't you unlock shit at co-op single player anymore? not receiving XP for medals and nothing get tracked or is my game just bugged

[arctic grove]

They need to have a good long look at bf4 and get some features from there since 2042 is the sequel to that game...

[frosty gorge]

you can make limited progress on bots, eg weapon badges are capped at 360 kills

[urban olive]

Tried 4 times never loaded, fun line simulator

[river willow]

ah thanks... per day?

[arctic grove]

Btw they said the story would be in the multiplayer? But the only thing I hear is 'get that facility back' every game

[rapid thunder]

I stopped playing cause the bloody hit reg is so bad.

[frosty gorge]

total, once you reach 360 kills on a weapon, you cant make more progress vs bots, but 360 kills is enough to unlock all attachments at least

[nova canopy]

i saw that on multiple youtube clips lol that shit is horrible. probably the main bug that got me to not buy it tbh

[frosty gorge]

its much better now, had one or two situations in the last week where I have went "that 100% hit wtf" but most were when I was on NA servers with 100-150ms ping

[river willow]

ooh damn.... good to know! been playing with bots for nothing then haha was tryng to get that T1 achievements with bots

[urban olive]

caps at like 300 kills a week i think 🤣

[frosty gorge]

its 360 kills total per weapon

[urban olive]

ah yeah

[rapid thunder]

Yeh such a turn off. That’s why I went back to warzone and Cold War lol. At least they got that right

[rapid thunder]

I’ll see for myself if I have the motivation to get on it again xD

[nova canopy]

its like buying a car but the gas pedal works sometimes lol🤣

[frosty gorge]

haha fairs, they have done a lot of good recently, the 64 player modes are much better than the 128 in performance and balance, much less vehicle spam haha

[river willow]

but lets say for example: tier 1 specialist achievement , cant be done by playing with bots (except the first ### kills)?

[frosty gorge]

indeed, not sure how many kills they are capped to though, id imagine its something like 20% of the progress or something like that

[river willow]

ah thanks for the info! geuss I wasted around 5 hours playing with bots then xD noticed it didn't get tracked but thought it was some kind of bugg. Because, you know, bf2042

[urban olive]

I just got my boris t1 for turret damage. Needed 60k or 6000 kills with beeping delays in-between a few 15 damage burst fires that miss often. Was super painful, but now boris looks like a real soldier

[rapid thunder]

True, but doesn’t the maps feel so empty then…

[frosty gorge]

no worries man

[frosty gorge]

depends, conquest yes, breakthrough not really

[river willow]

damn, well done! I went with the med pen because i though it was easy with bots, will go to AOW for the other kills xD

[rapid meadow]

anyone trying to play it im on ps4

[urban olive]

It's all about figuring out the sweet spots to get the damage you need best from w/e you're working towards

[frosty gorge]

plus the 32 player rush mode is very good fun too, honestly can say 2042 is in a state now I would recommend buying it when its on a discount, a solid 6-7/10, lack of content is bad though

[merry hollow]

its so fucking lame grinding shit with bots lol thats lame asf

[frosty gorge]

let people play how they want, doesnt affect you at all 🤷

[river willow]

I understand you, but if they would get a system where you could get some kind of rewards for playing portal I would do that

[merry hollow]

nobody is talking to you

[rapid thunder]

Rush mode in portal yeh? Is there progression? 😅.

[signal sapphire]

can pc play with ps4?

[urban olive]

The only nice thing is they let your grind the attachments + you can better learn the maps flow watching bots then stealthy players sometimes

[frosty gorge]

I believe so haha

[frosty gorge]

Why you been rude for?

[merry hollow]

because you don't know how to mind your own buisness

[frosty gorge]

lmao, gotcha kid, enjoy life with an attitude like that

[merry hollow]

anywho

[merry hollow]

there isn't one?

[rapid thunder]

Aight. I’ll have to check it out again with my friends again. I’m just mainly looking for any improvement on the bullet I fire…actually goes where I fuhckn aim 😂

[river willow]

Only official servers

[merry hollow]

Makes sense people could just make farm servers and it would be too easy

i don't believe in grinding that shit the easy way more fun to play the game and unlocks stuff for me

[frosty gorge]

its much better now (although not perfect), can pretty easily full auto ARs till about 100m accurately, tapping you can go out to 200-250m accurately, maybe 300 with a bit of luck

[urban olive]

Seems pretty solid on the AC-42, but depends on your gun and setup

[frosty gorge]

There is progression on the official portal modes, and the custom ones I believe have restrictions which go into place if too much is modified

[river willow]

ah I see, I really like hardcore servers but never had XP for those. Which is a shame, they could just get rid of the bots in portal, problem solved?

[frosty gorge]

yeah but for some custom portal experiences bots are required

[rapid thunder]

Aight thanks for the info. Good talk, gtg

[frosty gorge]

laters man

[river willow]

why not disable xp for those servers then haha. but I geuss I think to simple otherwise there would be a solution i geuss 🙂

[frosty gorge]

I get what you mean, but its a difficult thing to solve tbh, they are making good progress however, but unfortunately with something as complex as portal, it will never be perfect

There are very few things I will say are impossible to balance or fix with FPS games, but xp on portal modes is going to be impossible to balance

[river willow]

I see, thanks for the insight

[ember mauve]

Ayo whats ur rating on this game

[frosty gorge]

better than average, 6-7/10 ish if I had to put a number to it

[ember mauve]

o k

[signal trout]

7/10 fun

[frosty gorge]

yeah its very fun, and they fixed a lot of the major issues, but lacks content, will likely get bored after 200 hours of playing

[ember mauve]

Well y e s since u can abuse the laws of physics

[signal trout]

WHERES ALL THE FUTURISTIC SHIT

[ember mauve]

well abusing the laws of physics is futuristic enough for me

[frozen ravine]

What's happened to bf game base every game I've been on squad I in disperse like it's a free for all/tdm what happened to keeping with squad marking up and capturing objectives ?

[frosty gorge]

thats the issue with specialists without restrictions on weapons, gives a lot of freedom but takes out the core team work of the game

works great for modes like hazard zone, not so much for all out warfare modes

[frozen ravine]

Mad how a team base series trys to clone other competitors to try claw players to them specialists are not needed and will ruin this game

[frosty gorge]

I like specialists, I just wish they were put into classes with weapon restrictions to encourage team work, in the all out warfare modes anyway, they are fine as are for hazard zone

[earnest basin]

looking for people to play with

any squads looking for an extra man?

[frosty gorge]

Go to #lfg-pc #lfg-xbox or #lfg-playstation for lfg channels

[arctic grove]

Can anyone name a specialists ability and/or gadget that couldn’t be something equipped on one of the traditional base 4 or 5 classes?

[echo yew]

7/10??? fuck no at most it's a 4/10

[frosty gorge]

Fair enough if you think that, everyone is entitled to their opinions

[echo yew]

it's actually depressing that BF2042 didn't launch a good fucking game

i had every bit of faith in dice ngl, i so wanted this to be GOTY.

[frosty gorge]

I like the idea of specialists, just wish they werent memes characters and were put into class systems with weapon restrictions

[lament fjord]

Next title LULW

[frosty gorge]

oh the launch was awful, game was a 2/10 max, buts its improved a lot since then

[lament fjord]

Unironically I have hopes for the next one because it won’t be affected by turnover and switching engine and you can see a lot of good stuff hiding under the surface in 2042

[sharp heath]

meh 5/10 now

[echo yew]

fuck frostbite engine make the next game on unreal engine 5

[lament fjord]

Ew no

[mellow tangle]

I just realised that you can’t change squads and I’m hovering over that uninstall button

[arctic grove]

The specialists add nothing to this game imo, their “special” abilities are little more than gadgets shoehorned into a “hero”. They are gatekeeping you into playing as a specific ‘character’ with weirdly smug and cringe personalities so that you’ll buy skins.

[frosty gorge]

UE5 is kinda insane, but not quite there for more open game design, only works well atm with linear games

[frosty gorge]

If they were done right, they could add a lot of character to the game, problem is BF 2042 is based as WWIII with a dark story line, yet the specialists look like they came right out of fortnite

[arctic grove]

They’re concept is little different than the ‘elite’ skins from BFV, but instead of them being optional, they’ve been shoehorned into the game.

I agree if they didn’t look like adhd zoomer concept art, they wouldn’t be a big deal.

[frosty gorge]

Idm them being a part of the game, but I do wish say the M5 recoilless was restricted to the engineer and maybe the assault operators not everyone

no reason to use much equipment other than the M5, ammo box or AA atm unfortunately in my experience at least

[arctic grove]

I dunno, I just fail to see how their ‘abilities’ and gadgets couldn’t just be something you could put into the traditional class system. Even if they restricted the weapons and gadgets to a specific specialist, it would still be a complete downgrade to the traditional class system from previous titles.

[glad mist]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Cyd-5BVB0U suck on dis €A

[vestal grove]

I don’t agree with limiting the rockets to only certain specialists…not with the amount of vehicles.

[echo yew]

the best review for this game

[arctic grove]

Just remove them and bring back the 4 classes, we already have the A.I. Skins in the game with distinct differences.

[frosty gorge]

I getcha, as they are I would rather go back to the old system for all out warfare, problem is specialist as they are work great for HZ so cant really remove them, I just wish they better fitted the aesthetic of the game

[glad mist]

this

[echo yew]

ai skins are badass

[glad mist]

they could easily just put specializations as a replacement for the dual gadget system from BF4
which you can choose

[arctic grove]

Just keep them in Hazard zone and make that portion of the game F2P

[frosty gorge]

Tbh the amount of vehicles isnt the problem, its the fact you can just drop a tank on a building within 5 seconds

[frosty gorge]

HZ should defo be f2p, agreed there

[glad mist]

entire game should be F2P at this rate. One month in and players are already bleeding into older BF titles

[vestal grove]

Yeah I agree the ability to drop a vehicle on top of a building is kind of whack.

[frosty gorge]

The call in system should be ONLY for civilian vehicles, which more of are needed on the map in the first place as is

[frosty gorge]

Kinda agree here too ngl

[glad mist]

at very least shit out HZ and AOW as F2P

shift portal into a pay as a service thing if you want to host a server, like in BF4

[vestal grove]

But in all I don’t mind the specialist feature. I do like that I can be a med and still run with rockets.

[foggy crest]

I don't know how you said this and yet no fanboy defending it 😂

[frosty gorge]

true

[frosty gorge]

yeah maybe not limit equipment but weapons should 100% be limited to set classes, eg casper should be put into a "sniper" category, Irish into "assault or engineer" etc etc at least in all out warfare

[glad mist]

Classes in a modern battlefield is what balances the entire gunplay

especially when you have a shitton of gadgets and perks for infantry

[arctic grove]

hm

I used to dislike BF1 but 2042 made me go back and do a little bit of retrospection. And so far I gotta say it’s just a better experience overall.

[glad mist]

we had entire specialized perk sets and gadgets in the BF4 classes

which were just brilliant and about perfect if you think away the fact that meta primary and secondary guns existed.

[frosty gorge]

Tbh my biggest two issues are the lack of content and the lack of a method of tracking stats, either run by EA, or by third party sites like tracker gg

[arctic grove]

bro ea should be focusing on the titanfall ddos attacks and this game

[vestal grove]

I mean I do run Falck with a sniper rifle and rockets every now and then. I do like that freedom ability.

[glad mist]

i wouldn't trust them with another Titanfall or Battlefield at this rate

should just sell out the IPs.

[foggy crest]

and also PLANTS VS ZOMBIES GARDEN WARFARE 3 , TITANFALL 3 , STAR WARS BATTLEFRONT 3

[frosty gorge]

I only play HZ and run Sniper with falck, its great fun for that mode, and works well given its small teams which can move pretty freely round the map without being shot by 20 other people, but in AOW a character with a sniper and essentially infinite health where you cant move freely to get position on them, pretty OP

[arctic grove]

no there's apex legends and ea lost its lisence for star wars

Are we gonna get JDAM bombs for jets to make a bit useful, I mean, they are already in a way but I also wanna bomb infantry.

[foggy crest]

😭💔

[arctic grove]

yes

[glad mist]

Plants VS Zombies but it's an actual RTS like Command and Conquer

[foggy crest]

Third person

Garden warfare is third person

[arctic grove]

bro they need to fix the door attacks for titanfall cuz this game is unplayable

What does JDAM stand for?
Answer below but guess without searching it.
||Joint Direct Attack Munition||

[signal trout]

jaded directly assimilated missiles

[foggy crest]

I can't find matches in Titanfall 2 at all 😭

[vestal grove]

Yes and no. That’s honestly where teamwork and coordination comes into play. That’s why it would be nice to have squad voice chat.

[frosty gorge]

No clue how there isnt VOIP honestly

[arctic grove]

Nope

[foggy crest]

One guy said only 5% uses voip is it true

[vestal grove]

Seriously…that literally blows my mind. And no scoreboard. I don’t get that thought process at all. Probably cause there was none.

[arctic grove]

||The Joint Direct Attack Munition is a guidance kit that converts unguided bombs, or "dumb bombs", into all-weather precision-guided munitions.||

[glad mist]

VOIP could be used to call trash players trash, same reason why there's no global chat

gotta protect casuals from toxicity 😭

[vestal grove]

Lol that guy also said a bunch of other garbage that makes his sayings no longer valid.

[slate meadow]

Anybody here played the re release of world war 3 on steam yet? Genuinely looks a good game

[frosty gorge]

Scoreboard I get, big companies are hiding these things now as they dont want bad players to see how bad they are and get roasted, although no public API for those who do care is a joke

[glad mist]

WW3 looks promising

though kinda dead in hype and playerbase idk why

[foggy crest]

He also said nobody uses scoreboard and maps are great , gunplay is fantastic

[edgy oriole]

bc it a poo poo game

[rain plover]

Hello I just joined and started playing , had my first match and few minutes ago

[vestal grove]

I mean that’s why we have the report system right?

[signal trout]

what ww3 game

[slate meadow]

They had a content update the other day I think it's player base is small because of its poor first launch but they have had a big boost in finance and it actually looks pretty solid

[arctic grove]

Yes, I heard China about to begin a invasion on Taiwan. But WW3 is dying, kinda.

It’s probably a threat to regain Taiwan

[glad mist]

back in BF3 and 4 nobody gave a shit about chat or VOIP toxicity, you could just mute people or hide chat and you wouldn't see/hear their shit

those who complain about toxicity are snowflakes mostly

[vestal grove]

Cod and other games seem to be doing just fine with scoreboards. I guess no scoreboard is their way of differentiating haha?

[arctic grove]

Lol WW3 in people thought it be in Iran

[glad mist]

there's a FPS game in development called "World War 3".

[arctic grove]

Indeed

[vestal grove]

Exactly…there’s that option as well.

[slate meadow]

Dice just bent over for the snowflakes of today and it's how all future games are going to be and why games figures will start to decline like vanguard has and 2042 whilst it sold well has had huge refunds

[frosty gorge]

Nah activision have been working very hard to restrict the stats tracking websites, but since they had time to get running and grow a user base, they have been surviving, so no surprise EA hid their API from launch

[glad mist]

CoD and BF are both dying as a franchise

[signal trout]

ohhhh right

[foggy crest]

I hope COD 2022 will be good

[naive quiver]

I’m thinking to try out WW3 but It has same issues as battlefield 2042

[arctic grove]

CoD is far from dead when there's like 3 million people online everyday

Warzone

[glad mist]

nobody played Cold War after a month after it's release outside from Zombies

[slate meadow]

Look at it's sale figures it was down 40% on coldwar which had worse sales then mw2019

[arctic grove]

I'm talking about warzone

[glad mist]

Vanguard is declining in playerbase too already, they have to shit out XP boosts on a weekly basis like in Cold War to keep people playing.
even when those XP boosts even give you less XP than without coz the game is good

[vestal grove]

They have been? I mean they have released how many titles? Still see that scoreboard in each of them lol

[glad mist]

Warzone isn't even a CoD in my book, just a mainstream Battleroyale only streamers and casuals play&enjoy

which isn't necessary a bad thing

[frosty gorge]

API =/= scoreboard

[echo yew]

cold war was fucking garbage

[slate meadow]

Well yeah f2p games will always have big player bases because kids just download it and parents don't objecf because it costs them nothing 😂

[arctic grove]

...still call of duty 😏

[echo yew]

the problem is that this game is fucking broken

[glad mist]

oyeah i forgot its F2P, no wonder it isn't dead

[arctic grove]

Except microtransactions

[vestal grove]

Idk what API is

[glad mist]

then again aren't people ditching on Warzone too now?

[foggy crest]

There are lots of free to play games

[arctic grove]

Nope

[frosty gorge]

API allows people to collect in game data on players based on their ID and collect statistics not shown on scoreboards and generate data people are interested in, E.g. Score per game, gulag win rate etc etc

[glad mist]

pretty sure i've heard that people had enough of them not fixing shit in Warzone
or something.

[slate meadow]

Not many that offer basically a full cod experience without having to pay

[glad mist]

idk i barely follow game news about Warzone

[slate meadow]

Bf2042 should have been f2p then it would have been abit more forgivable

[arctic grove]

If they did the game be buried

[arctic grove]

Yeah after beta I agree

[echo yew]

warzone fucking sucks

[foggy crest]

U said it's free to play that's why it has huge playerbase but there are lots of games which are free which nobody plays

[frosty gorge]

A score board shows per game performance, in game stats show basic data, eg KD and win %, an API allows people to make websites with MUCH more detailed stats as described here, and much more more nuance stuff, such as weapon usage rates and even weapon usage with set attachments rates

[glad mist]

I don't see how a Battle Royale is a CoD experience when 90% of that origins from the classic 7v7 TDM gamemodes

[arctic grove]

A lot of Gen Z are and probably future generations are sensitive as fuck, I’m not saying everyone before or after that generation is sensitive but most people can’t take fucking jokes or a insult and instead cry over the smallest shit. I made a Chinese joke and someone got offended and called me a racist.

[slate meadow]

But like I said not games by AAA studios and those f2p games from AAA studios have huge numbers aswell look at Fortnite

[tranquil turtle]

Bing chilling

[arctic grove]

I hate and despise people who hide in their hermit shell and ignore true reality and instead try to accept their own made up reality to avoid getting made fun of or hurt emotionally.

[glad mist]

social media was a mistake

[slate meadow]

No real change in gameplay battlepass that unlocks things for the full game and warzone so even if you don't have vanguard but just play warzone you can still unlock things for just warzome with the season pass also the fact they have the rebirth island so you can respwan to a certain degree means its alot closer to a cod game then when it was just the full fledged BR game

[nova canopy]

yep i got off lol

[arctic grove]

Yes and No, it brought many positives and negatives.

[glad mist]

huge contributor to all of this snowflakery.

Back on topic

[arctic grove]

I like jets

[nova canopy]

you think vangaurd is better than 2042?? I heard it was shitty too but at least it has a campaign. i used to love bf campaigns

[arctic grove]

Title is still CoD

[still vault]

That is back on topic, if it is 2042 jets at least

[glad mist]

a BR still isn't a full on CoD experience lol

[frosty gorge]

but what if it was BF4 jets

[arctic grove]

F-35E Panther better jet then Russian jet that doesn’t have Vertical Take of Landing/VTOL or the fact that it has a big ass frame, which the Panther doesn’t.

[glad mist]

we don't talk about legacy games here, only 2042

[still vault]

#battlefield-legacy-titles

[frosty gorge]

😰

[nova canopy]

you think vanguard is better than 2042?

[glad mist]

comparable

[foggy crest]

I think so

[slate meadow]

I bought vanguard and refunded it in 15 minutes 😂 was the worst game I have experienced in a while but yes I genuinely believe 2042 was worse due to the fact they pulled campaign and promised that it was for the greater good sold it for £100 and then still allowed it to launch in the state it did plus the whole pandering to China market makes the whole idea of being at war pointless as nobody is actually fighting for any cause or reason

[arctic grove]

Give me role to react to messages, pretty please 🥺

[frosty gorge]

Eh I am done with CoD, like the concept but the lack of a skill gap just makes the game unplayable, not to mention the fact that the SBMM takes a lot of the fun out of the game, CoD and BF are first and foremost casual games, no place for SBMM (at least strict SBMM)

[glad mist]

if not a bit better from the core substance of the game, there's a bit of nostalgia in Vanguards gunplay which reminds me of MW3 but the fact it's a buggy and broken mess and WW2 themed just ruins it all.
Just like how BF2042 had potential until they shat in the specialist system and otherwise half hearted and barely well executed game design.

[still vault]

!!regular

[tender pendant]

The Regular role is earned by users automatically who are active in chat and follow the server rules. With this role you can post/embed images, use some bot commands, and change what color you appear in chat.

[nova canopy]

damn the fall of two major franchises. this shit is amazing that they did it at the same time. If one was just decent they could have crushed the other to oblivion. but their both cheeks🤣

[arctic grove]

SBMM draws in new players

[nova canopy]

word

[glad mist]

I forgot about SBMM, THE mistake of an entire franchise

[nova canopy]

what is sbmm?

[glad mist]

Skill Based Match Making

[frosty gorge]

I understand why it is there, but still dont like it haha, no problem with a ranked mode, but when SBMM is forced its just a shit experience for even above average players, nevermind good players or god help you a top 1% player

[nova canopy]

oh ok

[arctic grove]

I’m a OG player who has Battlefield 1, 3, 4 and 2042. I’m also a human being who’s Arabian.

[fresh vessel]

cringe

[arctic grove]

I like planes ✈️ and buildings 🏙

[surreal crystal]

Cringe

[slate meadow]

I mean in a way it's a good thing that games like this are coming out and fan bases form both sides of the table are actually standing up and voicing there opinions and actually now making the sales figure affect the company's pockets we will hopefully start to see a change in the process which has been heading this way for the last 4-5 years

[surreal crystal]

Isn’t it 2042 got highest sales number ?

[nova canopy]

facts im just saying its crazy how they dropped the ball and had the oppurtunity to crush the other franchise once and for all but nope,. too greedy thats sad af

[glad mist]

So with Cold War SBMM as example you don't get random lobbies where you could just game and play how you wanted against other random players who weren't necessarily as good as you based on your stats. But you get thrown into lobbies which consist of players of your own skill range.
aka you can't play how you want without needing to constantly be on the top of your FPS game.

[arctic grove]

Lol it is what it is if it helps new players

[still vault]

Guess I'm the OGest of OGs since I've played 1942, Vietnam, BF2, 2142, BF:BC2, BF3, BF4, BF:H, BF1, BFV and 2142. And I still don't got the regular role.

[glad mist]

SBMM should only be a factor for new accounts till they have reached LVL10.
like it was in MW3 and Black Ops 3

[nova canopy]

2042 has sbmm?

[glad mist]

no

[slate meadow]

I like that alot of the dice o.g's have up and left the studio to go create there own and hopefully bring out some decent games and I also like that fact that I believe in my opinion sledgehammer games are doing vanguard dirty on purpose to get kicked by Activision so they then can go create there own games under a different publisher maybe

[arctic grove]

🛫✈️🛩️🏗️🏙️💥

[wise zodiac]

You didn't play 1943, Heroes, or the other one?

[glad mist]

atleast i am not sure
idfk how the matchmaker works

[arctic grove]

That maybe a good idea it may go by level

[vestal grove]

Nope you aren’t. You didn’t play BFBC 1 so no OGest for you.

[foggy crest]

Have you played modern warfare 2019 also ??

[arctic grove]

👍🏻

[frosty gorge]

again, I have no issue with a ranked mode worse skilled players can play to be match on skill, but sometimes I wanna just chill and fuck about with friends, not use the highest TTK weapon and run around in a pool of my own sweat every... single... game

[nova canopy]

🤣

[glad mist]

SBMM is for ranked and competitive gaming
keep it as far away as possible from anything casual related.

[scarlet steeple]

I have too, but you missed 1943

[wise zodiac]

The only Battlefield I haven't played is 2142 because I didn't have a computer good enough to play it.

[slate meadow]

I think it has the second highest sales numbers for a bf game but it has HUGE refund figures aswell which hasn't been announced by EA yet but is clear by the way EA have come down like a tone of bricks on dice

[frosty gorge]

this too is great, I have NO issue protecting newer players

[nova canopy]

oh that makes sense then you have bragging rights for leaderboard stats and stuff. gotcha

[scarlet steeple]

I do miss Vietnam though, towing stuff with choppers, poo

[wise zodiac]

I miss Vietnam for the radio in vehicle

[scarlet steeple]

This is war, dun dun dunnnn dunnn

[naive quiver]

Second highest sale number I guess

[frosty gorge]

agreed, main reason I love BF2042, can jump in, use any weapon I want, fuck about and have fun and still do decently well without sweating my ass off and getting pissed off every time I die to a guy sitting in a corner with a shotgun and a heartbeat sensor

[glad mist]

not necessarily about bragging rights but for the sake of competitive play like in CSGO

[nova canopy]

omg they should drop another vietnam game. would be so dope

[arctic grove]

SBMM Is used in many ways

[still vault]

PC Player, no 1943 for me

[scarlet steeple]

I felt bad for Vietnamese side though, they had easy big fucking hats to shoot.

[naive quiver]

Second highest sale number I guess in battlefield history 😂😂

[arctic grove]

Lol still made USA miserable 😂

[nova canopy]

yeah but of course the people on top of the leaderboards can go around and brag like hey i have top 5 kdr or whatever but yeah i feel ya

[slate meadow]

I just can't wrap my head around a war game that has no sides to the "war" it actually blows my mind what is the selling point of 2042 ? Because it's clearly not a battlefield game at its core ( even ex Dev came out and said it was started as a hero shooter) yet it's a terrible hero shooter aswell it's just a huge mixing bowl of everything and unfortunately it's turned into dog poo

[glad mist]

thats Battlefield for me lol
I could just chill and play offmeta guns and equipment in BF3 and 4 while having the choice to go all in with a squad of my competitive clan and carry my entire team if it was to lose.

[frosty gorge]

isnt even bragging rights, Scoreboards give people something to grind for, another big issue with SBMM is its often region based, so if you live somewhere like egypt away from popular servers you often get MUCH easier lobbies so your stats are often 1.5-2x higher than an equal skilled player in a region like the UK with near by servers, hence scoreboards arent even competative with SBMM systems

[glad mist]

nobody does that lol

[scarlet steeple]

Nice, my first BF exp was 1942 in 2002 in a LAN Cafe, people yelling and crying, good times.

[nova canopy]

lol oh

[glad mist]

except for insecure children who we couldn't give less fucks about

[arctic grove]

Battlefield 2042 had a selling point?

[nova canopy]

🤣

[frosty gorge]

I think you would be surprised haha

[steep skiff]

poopoo game

[nova canopy]

yeah a whole new bigger battlefield is experience was the marketing i thought

[still vault]

LAN Cafes should be 50% yelling at least

[arctic grove]

Lol from the leaked gameplay we knew where it was going

[frosty gorge]

For real, miss when you could feel passionate about games, a lot of games nowadays feel like more of a chore and grind to play rather than fun with friends

[slate meadow]

Bf2042 literally took the point of gaming out of the game no scoreboard no bragging rights no sence of achievement when the hours you put into the game you start seeing yourself getting better and improving no team play so you cant meet new buddies I just don't get it 😫

[scarlet steeple]

Most of it came from CS, naturally, but the elite players did BF in a little corner xD

[glad mist]

FUNNY THING IS, without scoreboard you can't see and report cheaters
go figure

I got a 10 kill streak with a single bomb run in battlefield 5 with JU-88 500lb bomb

[arctic grove]

That’s hysterical!!!

[steep skiff]

There's so many cheats already

[arctic grove]

It's to casual with no balance

[arctic grove]

I dropped 164-1 my recent match would you report me as hacker?

[slate meadow]

Means they have lower reports so it looks like there abit cheat is working

[arctic grove]

EAC is working

[glad mist]

i'd have to see your replay to judge- oh wait.
I can't spectate in 2042

[arctic grove]

I’m enjoying 2042 but It needs a lot of bug fixes and updates

[frosty gorge]

There arent that many, but its certainly beginning to be an issue

[slate meadow]

But bf has never been a casual game really has it ? Like bf4 you had to sweat your balls off to try get top leader board

[arctic grove]

just look on my profile 😉

[nova canopy]

easy to find full servers??

[charred viper]

Sadly that’s a legacy feature

[arctic grove]

Not sure about full but I never have a hard time finding a match it jumps into one instantly mostly

[glad mist]

and tbh dropping 164-1 on 2042 isn't too hard, just gotta farm in a helo

[arctic grove]

Lol that's my type of fun trying to be good 😊

[arctic grove]

jealous

[frosty gorge]

Any game is competitive if you want to be the best, difference is in BF you never had to sweat to just do well, with games like the recent CoDs with strong SBMM, you have to sweat your nuts off to even do well

[ebon fern]

The lazyness of the vehicle team is just mindblowing, the physics of air vehicles are just insanely bad, everything gets a mini-gun everything gets a 30mm cannon etc. etc. ?

[glad mist]

ayo i used to do the same in BF4

[arctic grove]

The new jet hover mode is pretty neat

Tbh I just troll in battlefield 2042 since.......THERES NO STATS

[arctic grove]

there will be stats

It's sad you can see the usual attention to detail in about 20% of the game

The rest is just rushed

[glad mist]

the drone in 2042 is lowkey the best thing about the entire base game.

[arctic grove]

We need more conteeeeent

I feel like they should make the future passes and seasons free like cod did and it would help the player base

[haughty dagger]

I tried to play BFV and that game is not that good. Idk why people are saying it’s good.

[glad mist]

you can sit down on one and drop C4 on campers

[charred viper]

I’m afraid that’s a legacy feature. Sorry

[arctic grove]

Just not for you mate, it is good

[nova canopy]

its harder for one person to dominate a game when it actually takes teamwork and squad play to optimize results. cod seems like its easier for one person to dominate.

[frosty gorge]

I getcha, but even in modes like groundwar, its often a chore to do well

[glad mist]

CoD doesn't have 64 players cramped into one tiny map tho duh.

[arctic grove]

Lol "legacy features" 😂

The portal mode is a neat addition

[frosty gorge]

groundwar

[arctic grove]

Needs more content

[glad mist]

wasn't that 20v20

[arctic grove]

Ground war.....

[arctic grove]

Ye I’ve only just started playing I’m enjoying it so far but more content the better

[glad mist]

on a map the size of half of Siege of Shanghai

[charred viper]

It’s just the way it works sometimes!

[arctic grove]

I wish we could level buildings like Shanghai

[arctic grove]

I do like the base game but I'm sad to say I'm bored of it

Currently playing a 19 year old game instead

[arctic grove]

You bout to get dropped off the boat

[nova canopy]

thats how i felt about battlefield 1. Some people loved it but the guns were too ancient. muskets 🤣

[iron geode]

Hey I’m having trouble with launching the game can someone help me out?

[slate meadow]

I guess that all comes down to natural gaming ability aswell though like I've never really struggled with cod sbmm if I'm honest but I do agree having a mixed bag of played is better and more fun then going here is 16 players that all have the same ish stats go at it

[arctic grove]

Hopefully future updates add massive scale leveloution

[frosty gorge]

pretty sure its 32v32

[median oracle]

i have over 1000 ping in each server im in

[arctic grove]

New maps maybe

Current maps nah

[glad mist]

[nova canopy]

i bet ill like battlefield V better than 1. downloading V now

[arctic grove]

Do you not think they could add it to the kaleidoscope map?

[glad mist]

idk i only played it during the beta when it was 20v20 or something

[ebon fern]

God there is so much to fix in this game fundamentally its just not gonna work out 😐

[glad mist]

come back to BF4

people are reviving the competitive scene in there recently

[nova canopy]

when you give her chance after chance but she keeps doing the same thing 🤣

[frosty gorge]

I have never "struggled" but I have also never felt I had the freedom to play how I want like I can in 2042 if that makes sense, in MW 2019 for example to do well and have a 4-6 KD per game I had to use MP5, amax, AS VAL etc etc only unless I was partied with friends who were worse than me so we got easy lobbies

[arctic grove]

Is this official server with devs?

[nova canopy]

yess indeed i love 4. was playing earlier.

[strange widget]

subtle brag

[charred viper]

Angel does it again!

[arctic grove]

👁👄👁

[glad mist]

[frosty gorge]

haha didnt mean it like that, just meant to do well you had to use only certain things with a certain play style

[slate meadow]

No chance they won't implement leveloution in this game and they won't improve the distraction within the game either they would have to spend way to much money and time that they won't have the player base buying microtransactions to finance EA/dice aren't like helo games where they will happily eat into there sales figures to improve the game in the hope player number come back up they will just do some mediocre updates and bug fixes and have done with it

[keen plank]

that's just how it works out sometimes

[strange widget]

yeah theres a meta in every game but BF doesnt suffer too much from meta

[arctic grove]

It’s kinda sad

[nova canopy]

thats really messed up.. exactly why im waiting for it on game pass. ea sucks

[charred viper]

Sir, I’m afraid fun is a legacy feature. Once again, I am sorry 😁

[frosty gorge]

Indeed, its refreshing to be able to just chill out, use whatever I want, and still have fun

[glad mist]

any healthy FPS game has a meta. What's important is how much the set back between meta and off-meta is

and how that as a whole is balanced

[strange widget]

however the AC burst defo needs a nerf, its super competitive at all ranges

[frosty gorge]

Of course, PKP is most certainly the meta of BF2042, but its not that much stronger than say the AK or M4

[ebon fern]

The graphics are refreshing, but the game is a mutant of all current shooters out there

[slate meadow]

Been playing EA games long enough to know they won't risk using initial sales profits to try improve the game look at bfv they gave up on that game just as it was getting good because they player base wasn't there to validate putting 2042 back another year and putting more money into it

[frosty gorge]

a minor nerf, but not too much imo, still want it to be viable

[merry hollow]

"one tiny map"

[arctic grove]

Wdym? The ac-42 is definitely too broken

[slate meadow]

And now bfv and bf2042 have the same player numbers which is funny as f considering bfv isn't supported anymore

[glad mist]

i forgot shipment exists for a second there

[slate meadow]

Shipment haunts me

[nova canopy]

You still play V?

[merry hollow]

it's better than 2042

[nova canopy]

wow smh

[glad mist]

not a huge bar at this rate tbh

[slate meadow]

Bfv and bf1

[ebon fern]

it doesn't matter if you have an ancient PC from 2005 or a monster 3k dollar PC from the current year, the frames are just so bad

[nova canopy]

🤣

[nova canopy]

word

[slate meadow]

Bfv is a far better game then 2042 and bf1 is like prime Mike Tyson fighting Jake Paul

[glad mist]

i wanna get into BF1 again but i have no hunger for WW1 or WW2 era games anymore

[ebon fern]

BF3 for me, that's where the peak was of all BF titles

[nova canopy]

wow. way to go ea🤣

[nova canopy]

yeah it is over saturated. Somebody should drop a vietnam. If they do it right its over.

[slate meadow]

I think alot of people feel like this but thanks to dice we have no choice unless you want to play a game that makes drinking bleach look attractive

[glad mist]

i want something set inbetween BF4 and BF2142

[arctic grove]

BF2077

[nova canopy]

what about sandstorm insurgency??

[glad mist]

actually making sense and sorta fitting into lore *

[arctic grove]

I would’ve welcomed back mechs into battlefield like 2142

[nova canopy]

anybody tried sandstorm??

[glad mist]

i lowkey thought they were gonna do something with the Titans since there was a half completed Titan in Hangar 23 in BF4.

[slate meadow]

It's okay but its alot more tactical then bf games and also it has alot of performance and optimization issues however I did actually enjoy playing it when it did work

[surreal crystal]

Yeah i love it !!

[ebon fern]

2042 seems to be 1 year early release access, you guys are the testers 😛

[nova canopy]

nice i might have to check that out.

[slate meadow]

And they got the pleasure of paying to be testers

[nova canopy]

🤣

[slate meadow]

Yeah it's not a bad game but you can't play it like bf games because you get sniped everywhere you go

[nova canopy]

pretty realistic huh? i like that

[slate meadow]

Oh yeah dude it's one shot kill most of the time no killcam either

[surreal crystal]

Yup one shot kill unless u put on a heavy armour

[nova canopy]

nice campaign??

[surreal crystal]

Nope only multiplayer

[nova canopy]

awww😞

[slate meadow]

But hey atleast it's not £100 without a campaign 😂

[arctic grove]

There’s a bit of an intro sequence but no campaign

[surreal crystal]

But try it u will like it

[nova canopy]

facts 🤣

[nova canopy]

how many players on a map?

[arctic grove]

Tbh I love the more agile I feel in this game like zip lining across skyscrapers then wingsuiting off them it is fun imo

[surreal crystal]

Guns are super nice to shoot and A10 sound is frickin beautiful 🤩

[nova canopy]

nice yeah i remember back when bf sounds were realistic af lol

[surreal crystal]

No idea sorry been a long time i played it

[nova canopy]

word

[neat nest]

Anyone on ps4?

[ornate prairie]

🇫🇺🇰

[fierce gull]

fuck

[ornate ginkgo]

Anyone like the vector?

[ornate prairie]

🛑

[fierce gull]

I love it for tdm

yep

[craggy marten]

I still want to know why basic ass modes like TDM, Rush, and 64 player matches are limited time modes

Instead of staying permanently.

[fierce gull]

I rather have the TDM in portal cuz the maps in AOW are ass for TDM

there are some maps from AOW in tdm but i don't really like them

[idle summit]

I haven't been in this discord for weeks, people still hate this game oooor?

[dapper river]

always :))

[idle summit]

noice

[weak venture]

i cant even find a match

[fierce gull]

you have crossplay on?

[opal cedar]

the game came out too early

[weak venture]

do i need om or off

[fierce gull]

most people in this game have crossplay on

[weak venture]

ok ill try that

[fierce gull]

if you are having trouble finding the game with crossplay off maybe that's why

[arctic grove]

I'm a noob noob noob noob noob noob noob

[weak venture]

it worked thanks @fierce gull

[fierce gull]

👍

[arctic grove]

Battlefield 2042 year 2 map will be in Vietnam

[nova canopy]

[fierce gull]

[arctic grove]

Welcome to the rice fields

[nova canopy]

[arctic grove]

The tree speaks Vietnamese

[nova canopy]

🤣

[arctic grove]

How can i add a friend?

https://tenor.com/view/gaberegal-rice-meme-gif-10257984

[opal cedar]

not

[fierce gull]

pc players can't play with last gen

[arctic grove]

You walk once thinking it open area then split second Punjab pit down you go

[stiff spruce]

[arctic grove]

If we play Vietnam gotta do it right

[fierce gull]

god Vietnam in portal with B-17 bomber would be amazing

[nova canopy]

damn battlefield V taking long af to download. on 51 percent lol

[fierce gull]

i would bang dropping bombs with that thing

[arctic grove]

So xbox one s players can't play with pc players??

[fierce gull]

no

[tranquil turtle]

tried to join an xp farm server to see how it works, game crashes
dice knows 💀

[fierce gull]

pc players can only play with next gen

[quick rapids]

can we get it so I don't have to deploy my bipod every time I deploy

because honesty I keep forgetting to do it

[arctic grove]

Foofy

[prisma glacier]

Welp, my first hours of playing BF2042 on PS4 had crazy amount of... Input Delay.

[sharp heath]

yo controller sucks ass

[nova canopy]

nah 2042 sucks ass 🤣

[sharp heath]

you right og

had more fun watching paint dry on growing grass

[nova canopy]

🤣

[rancid wyvern]

I didn’t say nothing

[sharp heath]

my fault og

[rancid wyvern]

Np g

[stiff spruce]

[dusky blade]

But BF1 does have fog, rain, fires, etc

[stiff spruce]

i have BF3 BF4 BF1 BFV BF2042 on one account and another account with BF4

[dusky blade]

It’s actually epic

[fierce gull]

tornado https://youtu.be/FfipmRWAuJI

[dusky blade]

Ngl that burning blimp looks cooler than 2042’s tornado

[wild barn]

Last gen version should have a free upgrade

[arctic grove]

Does it not?

[wild barn]

Nope have to buy a gross gen bundle

[arctic grove]

Oh that’s poop

[dusky blade]

Massive poop

[wild barn]

I find out the hard way today

[wild barn]

Its pure greed

[arctic grove]

Wingsuit is pretty satisfying to use

[dusky blade]

I dunno man I like the box art

[buoyant coyote]

u knwo what ekle is satisfying jumping off a building then grappling back up mid air

[arctic grove]

Lol I haven’t unlocked the guy yet that has that ability

[fierce gull]

I have managed to kill a heli with a launcher like that

[buoyant coyote]

me either i played him in a portal mode

[arctic grove]

Oh

[round void]

Hello

[buoyant coyote]

nice\

[arctic grove]

hello there

[wild barn]

Box art is ok it’s the fact I spent money on it today from the store to then find that I can’t upgrade to the next gen version even though I own a next gen console and I have to buy a new edition of the game to access it when other company’s are letting us upgrade for free and even the box art wasn’t clear that it was only Xbox one version of the game

[scarlet spoke]

My sink pipe is leaking pls fix ea

[fierce gull]

love how one teammate told us to use soflam now we are annoying enemy vehicles with it

[dusky blade]

can you please discount the game the price is unfair

[stiff spruce]

[marble basalt]

CAN YOU PLEASE FIX THE AUDIO I CANT HEAR CRAP ITS BREAKING MY IMMERSION AND MY ONLINE EXPIERENCE

[wild barn]

Allow me to own the next gen version when I have the physical edition pls which I bought today

[white geyser]

🛠️🛠️

[buoyant coyote]

i like how one teamate told someone to get out the aa seat and they didnt and he left

[stiff spruce]

[dusky blade]

They need to add 7 new maps within the next week or I quit it’s actually stupid

[floral aspen]

Titans will be the Superbowl champs.....in 2042

[ionic robin]

heard about godfall couldnt get a downgrade to last genre and control couldnt get a free next genre update.

[fierce gull]

you quit and then

[wild barn]

I am gonna go on hunger strike if they don’t fix my problem I will chain myself to EA headquarters lol

[dusky blade]

But you’ll die

[buoyant coyote]

can u please fix my fridge is ruining my water drinking expirence

[white geyser]

Depends which opponent will face the titans

[wild barn]

I will die for the course

[fierce gull]

I want Afghanistan map

[floral aspen]

And if they have their injured key players back yet

[dapper river]

Whatever team Tom Brady's on, that'll be the 2042 champs (it's canon)

[buoyant coyote]

i want space map that u go to once rocket ship launches

[floral aspen]

Nah, in 2042 he's third string just doing milk ads 😂

[fierce gull]

it's 2042 where is the space force in this game

[white geyser]

Tom Brady got another contract extension for the buccaneers before 2042

[dapper river]

@buoyant coyote EMBED FAIL!!!!!

[buoyant coyote]

😢

[arctic grove]

Hope they add some kind of mech to pilot or if not then like a mech suit specialist

[floral aspen]

Nah, in 2042 he will be playing for the Detroit Lions and he will have brought Gronk, and convinced Jerome Bettis to come out of retirement 😂

[white geyser]

In real life 2042, I hope they make a real super soldier serum

[fierce gull]

so we can have captain america

[slow herald]

already exists
look it up, it's called "monster energy ultra zero sugar"

[urban olive]

we already have dozer 😆

[fierce gull]

dozer > captain america

[buoyant coyote]

dozer?

[fierce gull]

the dude with the shield

[buoyant coyote]

oh i dont know names lol

[fierce gull]

I think you mean "Monster energy ultra zero heartbeat"

[white geyser]

https://tenor.com/view/captain-america-gif-10246417

[urban olive]

Dozer needs a booster shot to hold a pistol with it tho

[fierce gull]

They better add my boy Recker to this game and meet up Irish

[buoyant coyote]

the old lady wit the heal gun needs a special gun called super soilder syrium and she goes god mode if she uses it

[urban olive]

that would make them awesome like a Uber charge from tf2 medic

[buoyant coyote]

better then uber charge

[white geyser]

I still want in the portal, just need advanced technology in the game to start a new war

[regal ravine]

Do some achievements take a while to pop for you guys too? Especially the ones tied to Hazard Zone

[fierce gull]

no

[buoyant coyote]

wait 2142 takes place way after 2042 since its 100 years later

[dapper river]

the sound of the PAC walker firing its cannons is still one of the best things to come out of this series

commander: moves the titan
entire team: "FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU--""

[languid bramble]

can anyone explain why I have fps drop below 60 even on low graphic ... 3080ti ryzen 9 5900x

[naive quiver]

This is normal for battlefield 2042

[fierce gull]

not really

I have a ryzen 7 5800x and my frame drops don't go below 60

[urban olive]

just try optimized settings from Nvidia Experience. Normally is higher settings, but those cards are designed more around that then low ones

[fierce gull]

What does your temperature with your Ryzen 9 go to when playing the game?

[dusky blade]

They should add jet packs to this game

[naive quiver]

I have a i9 12900k it still fps dropped sometime below 60

[languid bramble]

my "optimizated" on nvidia says ultra

[urban olive]

Mine for a 2080 is all high settings on 1440p

[hot yacht]

Is ur xmp enabled?

[fierce gull]

do you have ray tracing on?

[hot yacht]

Wait what!

[naive quiver]

I literally set all setting in low

[hot yacht]

12900k should curbstomp this game

[naive quiver]

1440p all in low setting

[hot yacht]

My 10850k yeets this game

[naive quiver]

This is gonna piss me off 😂😂

[fierce gull]

something wrong then lol

[urban olive]

I get like 60-100 (depending on area of the map) with a 2080 FE and I9-9900k on high 1440p

[fierce gull]

don't know if it's your game or your computer

[naive quiver]

I mean it’s fine most of the time

[buoyant coyote]

OPPOSITE of wingsuit instead of gliding down u glide up

[naive quiver]

But somewhere around the map is literally fps dropped badly

[hot yacht]

Ram speed?

[urban olive]

I do have decent ram, a fast gaming SSD dedicated for the game, OC 8 core cpu and 2080. If you're missing one of those might cause issues somewhere

[naive quiver]

Motherboard ASUS PRIME Z690-P WIFI D4
Processor Intel Core i9 12900K, 16C/24T, 3.7GHz – 5.3GHz
CPU Cooler Corsair Hydro H100x
Memory 16GB (2x8GB) Corsair Vengeance LPX 3600MHz DDR4
Graphics Card 24GB EVGA GeForce RTX 3090 XC3 BLACK
Power Supply Corsair RM750x– 80PLUS GOLD
System Drive 1TB Samsung 980 M.2 NVMe SSD
Operating System Microsoft Windows 11 Home 64bit

[hot yacht]

Hmmm u should curbstomp this game

[urban olive]

windows 11, how is it?

[hot yacht]

My best bet is u don't have xmp enabled as well

[white geyser]

They better find a good map for 2142 and add it to the portal

[naive quiver]

I’m fine running the game , but fps dropped sometime below 60

[hot yacht]

I actually like win11 got me a slightly better score in timespy

But not much performance improvement, but I think 12th gen intel works best on win11

[naive quiver]

Window 11 is looking nice , just like MacOS 😂

[hot yacht]

I got a minor video playback bug but it was patched and gone weeks ago

[white geyser]

I feel like the timeline 1942, 2042, and 2142 will be complete, but it’s gonna get messy to fuck up the timeline and history will be a mess.

[fierce gull]

I hate when you go revive someone but they give up when you get there

[naive quiver]

Copy and paste 😂😂

[fierce gull]

this is like the 8th directx error i got today

can they release the next patch already god dam

[naive quiver]

😂😂 this is hero gameplay style

[urban olive]

same if waiting and you see them running as the time expires

[fierce gull]

they already added a medic distance can't they already see a medic is getting closer

[glossy arrow]

Anyone down to play?

I know it annoys me whenever Im about to revive

[urban olive]

recently I went down but it was glitched repeating the animation over and over resetting the down timer. Sat there for like 3 mins as the enemy looked at me puzzled shooting at me downed, but alive.

was no way to respawn had to quit the match lol

[naive quiver]

😂😂tbh I always want that EA will add an unlocking weapon accessory package, so it doesn’t take so much time to unlock it.

I think this is good idea to make more money 😂 EA will listen

[urban olive]

You just play some bot matches on breakthrough renewal and camp the tower sniping them. Lets you get like 360 kill per wep before caps kick in

[naive quiver]

I know , this is quite boring to do 😂

[urban olive]

maxed pistol that way tho 😉

[fierce gull]

bro

i got another directX error just when I was healing someone

[urban olive]

games telling you not to revive

[fierce gull]

welp i hope that dude got revived

[next onyx]

Oh damn you got a 12th gen

[naive quiver]

Game telling you to kill everyone by yourself not to revive

[next onyx]

I always skip revives

[naive quiver]

😂😂 you’re a bad team mate

[fierce gull]

brooooo wtff why am I getting so much errors
