battlefield-2042

[worldly mesa]

I will never stop laughing that the only lore we get for the game is from social media and not the game itself lmao

[sinful snow]

I've pre-ordered the game on June 2021 even before Technical Alpha session

[lone wren]

I mean the maps tell the story behind it

[hollow oyster]

battlefield 2042 lore : 😡
battlefield 2042 game :

[lone wren]

The terrain the conflict is the story

[mental delta]

Idk I would have some hope if the game wasn't in such a shitty situation, I mean even if it improves itself, it will be hard to make people come back to the game as it suffered from really bad reviews and the game starts to be deserted 2 months after release

[fierce gull]

I mean you can play as the US team so it's accurate

[worldly mesa]

Yep, it’s insane

[torpid shuttle]

I miss listening to community legacy feature.

[mental delta]

And that was already 1 year battle pass ?

[fierce gull]

When was that feature lmao

[sinful snow]

I believe the dynamic events are now missing from most of the maps

[worldly mesa]

BF4

[torpid shuttle]

Well I don't know. BF3, BF2 maybe

[fierce gull]

Bruh

[hollow oyster]

BF3, chef's kiss

[sinful snow]

Yep, they never sold a Year 2 pass because I would have bought it ... :))

[lone wren]

Well hopefully it gets a return

[mental delta]

Yeah I watched on internet and you're right, sorry for the inconvenience

[fossil wagon]

When are we going to get some Double XP events?

[median cipher]

Are Dice gonna communicate with us at all about anything?

[pine marsh]

will they add the F-22 to bf2042, id love to see a worthy ontendor for the felon

[mental delta]

I think we can't even find specialists backstories ingame

[arctic grove]

never because dice and ea are scammers and top tier con artists

[lone wren]

If you don't beg constantly

[hollow oyster]

we could've gotten a very different game if it weren't for EA to f*ck things up last second, like remember the leaked maps like volcano etc? and the playable soldier models that got replaced by specialists, manee the potential

[sonic stag]

poking my head in here to.... watching #direct-communication and still nothing... yikes...

[sinful snow]

No worries bud, glad that I could help somehow 😄

[fossil kite]

they already made their money on this pos game and they know that it's almost dead already

[fierce gull]

We only got developers responding to tweets instead from the communication account

[hollow oyster]

dice is being controlled and has a gun on their head by EA we must break them free from the shackles of marketing and money-making agendas

[fierce gull]

One said its a good idea to add gun progression for portal

[lone wren]

Let's add the portal gun

[fossil kite]

but you know that most of the stupid design decisions come from dice internally lol

they should close the studio and give the franchise to ripple effect

[hollow oyster]

yes but EA decided the hero system aka specialists and the colorful goofy fortnite tone of the game

[mental delta]

No news this month I think, if the season 1 releases in march we'll probably get news mid-February but not before I think

[hollow oyster]

that's why specialists feel so rushed and the game's tone is all over the place

because this game decided to change it's theme half-way through development

[fierce gull]

So when they gonna add Recker to this game since we have specialists

[sonic stag]

we actually don't know who decided what and who dictated what, because they wont say. you think anyone is going to admit to anything in this debacle....

[mental delta]

Yes thanks, at least they didn't lie yet about years of support for the game, they just lied about the whole game for the moment lol

[old osprey]

I hope EA fix the game, we want like bf3/bf4

[bleak nebula]

bf3/bf4 was peak bf👌

[fierce gull]

Of course they are going to fix the game
It's how dice rolls

[arctic grove]

bf1 was peak bf

dont @ me

[hushed nimbus]

BF3 is the best FPS I have ever played. Not one game since than gave me the same feelings

[fierce gull]

@arctic grove

[lone wren]

As I tell people patch the game before adding stuff

[tranquil turtle]

bc2 still slaps

[arctic grove]

im coming for you

i got this warning: You have received the following warning on the Battlefield server: Inappropriate behavior towards other users
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact ModMail.

[mental delta]

Sorry to say that but it will never be like that I believe, maybe the next one could be if they don't make a hero shooter like it's planned, but who knows, maybe they will teach their lesson

[lone wren]

Yeah contact modmail

[sinful snow]

I remember that there was an investor call event and they've mentioned that EA is going to support this game even to 3-5 years tho' ... but that was long before the game was announced

[hollow oyster]

it's probably EA since they're the one in charge of audience marketing, look at DICE's original internal dev trailer, no specialists, a serious tone, and not even a "battlefield moment" in it, just a pure all out war trailer, wonder where that game went though?

[solemn bridge]

my free trial is now over

[arctic grove]

i recieved a 24h mute for being "constantly negative" and "no constructive feedback" with no warning LOL

[hushed nimbus]

The term hero shooter is so easily thrown around. I feel like it lost its meaning

[sonic stag]

you got a link to said trailer

[fierce gull]

Is 2042 even considered as a hero shooter

[mental delta]

Me too, the game is just perfect to me, nothing to remove and nothing to add neither, just perfect

[arctic grove]

the worst thing i said in this chat was your mom and that was enough for a warning

[hushed nimbus]

it is not but people still compare it for some reason

[arctic grove]

yesn't

2042 isnt necessarily a full blown hero shooter but it has hero shooter elements

[old osprey]

im a big battlefield fan , and im depressed because ive been over hypeed 😆 when people told beta is bad words, it will be like that when release, i still defend

[arctic grove]

bruh

[hushed nimbus]

like what? soldiers with faces and names?

[lone wren]

Can I tell y'all something near impossible I am one of the peeps who preordered 2042 on announcement and never refunded

[fossil kite]

because it has an identity crisis, DICE couldn't even decide what this game should be lol

[arctic grove]

specialists

[mental delta]

Yes I remember of that, they talked about supporting the game for years after release and even after the next battlefield releases, but I guess everything changed when the game came out

[hushed nimbus]

of course specialists duh, but outside visuals what else?

[hollow oyster]

https://youtu.be/n4fhjx5fH2I

[arctic grove]

lack of real scoreboard LMAO

[hollow oyster]

or this https://youtu.be/IUancIqXlhw

[hushed nimbus]

all hero shooters have a scoreboard so where is the connection?

[arctic grove]

overwatch is a full blown hero shooter and it has no scoreboard too

[lone wren]

Even though I was told it was speculation and all that but apparently 2042 was actually going to be a different game and not a battlefield title

[mental delta]

Me too, that's my favorite franchise tbh and I got hyped a way too much, they tricked me and now I am deceived like never before

[fossil kite]

yes

[hollow oyster]

this lol

[arctic grove]

you ever played overwatch?

[hushed nimbus]

since when they removed OW scoreboard? also paladins. also siege

[arctic grove]

ethan what was your oppinion on bf 2042 again?

shit has no scoreboard literally its the exact same as 2042 LMAO

[hushed nimbus]

ok 1 example and the rest?

[arctic grove]

ow is the most prominent example

[lone wren]

Its a good mess

[hollow oyster]

The sticker that no one uses

[violet sluice]

Most people here love Battlefield, just not 2042.

[hushed nimbus]

siege is bigger or the same

[mental delta]

The type of game it is isn't even clear to me, it doesn't look like previous bf games and it doesn't look like a real bf game at all for the moment imo

[lone wren]

Love is a strong word it's more like

[arctic grove]

we need a "i hate 2042 but love bf" sticker

[sharp dove]

so uh what Battlefield would u guys recommended going back to? I’ve already started getting back into bf4

[hollow oyster]

hence identity crisis, the game changed it's theme half-way through development, this is the game we were supposed to get :
https://youtu.be/IUancIqXlhw

[arctic grove]

bf1 and bfv as well

[hazy otter]

More like what?? Don't leave us hanging!!

[lone wren]

Funny

[hushed nimbus]

bruh it looks the same 😂

[hollow oyster]

actually not half way, at almost the last quarter of development they decided to change the theme

[sharp dove]

out of the 2 which one should I play more?

[hushed nimbus]

what am I missing?

[hollow oyster]

no specialists, no battlefield moments, wdym the same lmao did you even watch it?

[arctic grove]

bf V

[arctic grove]

bf1 is more atmospheric while bfv has better gameplay

[hushed nimbus]

just did a few seconds ago

[sharp dove]

soooo which one

[lone wren]

Gunplay you mean

[fierce gull]

Bfv has better gameplay of me destroying the supply stations 🧐

[arctic grove]

bfv is def more populated so i would say that

[hushed nimbus]

my god you guys really have problems with specialists haha. it is hilarious at this point

[arctic grove]

*gunplay and movement mb

[hushed nimbus]

one of the least worst things in the game and you are stuck on it

[lone wren]

Bf1 is quieter but did dominate against cod during the time

[arctic grove]

i wish we would get the ability to select our genders ingame

[sinful snow]

my level of love for BF5 -> https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/1834654557144625276/8E6FE638AD5862B090AD5D5F0C5B410CF8DD72E5/

[arctic grove]

everything in the game is so bottom tier bad that we have to call specialists the least worse

[hollow oyster]

and notice the gritty war atmosphere in the trailer that's different than the one in even the reveal trailer, are you trying to be biased now?

[lone wren]

Bf1 is always going to be my favourite

[mental delta]

I remember seeing these images and the characters seen are clearly not specialists, that's also why I got hyped a lot, but it makes no sense at all, the game looks so much better and it's like they buried themselves

[arctic grove]

can we get transgender and nonbinary specialists

bf1 nailed the atmosphere

[hushed nimbus]

gritty war atmosphere. you can make any trailer like that jesus. it means nothing

[arctic grove]

2042 has no gritty war atmosphere

[sharp dove]

at this point I feel like that there’s so much more broken in the game that idc that specialists stay in or not

[hushed nimbus]

it was not gameplay, pre-rendered images can be what you wanted them to be

[tranquil turtle]

no

[hallow sierra]

wait she is

[tranquil turtle]

go back to bf3, the only soldiers were black and white straight men

[hollow oyster]

"it means nothing" trailer is the introduction and advertisement of what's to offer in the upcoming game, wdym it means nothing?

[arctic grove]

never gonna play her again

[lone wren]

Turn off HUD and you got yourself a ww1 cinematic

[flat tusk]

I just noticed the flickering of a black screen in that trailer that almost gave me an epileptic fit

[arctic grove]

and the graphics 6 years ago are miles ahead of 2042 its just laughable lmfao

nah because im realistic

[hushed nimbus]

god you are way too stubborn for your own good

[arctic grove]

this guy is stuck in the 3rd stage of grief

[hollow oyster]

yes there's a non-flickering version if you search for it but the blurred dice property watermark is replaced by a black line

[sharp dove]

Sigma Male tip: #69 don’t play be videogame characters because they r non binary

[sonic stag]

this!, bf1 was truly amazing, the level of detail, every gun had proper reload animations, the graphics, the sound, every thing was top notch

[tranquil turtle]

name a trans person in the military

[arctic grove]

can we get the music too

[hushed nimbus]

oh no stop hurting me with words when you can't have proper opinions :((

[arctic grove]

u about to get cancelled

[queen depot]

Huh, I'm getting the mouse 5 keybinding problem again...

[arctic grove]

you trans ethan

[fossil kite]

how can Sundance be non-binary if she's made of 1s and 0s

[sonic stag]

there are quite a few, sadly

[tranquil turtle]

I don't care

[lone wren]

2042 did go a bit backwards but that's OK I have nothing against it bf1 was my favourite because of the games boundary pushing cinematic moments

[tranquil turtle]

I don't use twitter

[flat tusk]

[sinful snow]

The artistic view is different ... from a technical perspective BF2042 is far superior to BF1 and even BF5

[lone wren]

Same

[hollow oyster]

no i actually accept opinions and establish a proper constructive non-biased argument, seems like you're just too tired and stressed from all the other biased haters that you yourself are now seeing almost all criticism as plain out blind negativity including mine, maybe take a break?

[radiant prism]

BF1 has great atmosphere…but ultimately has shit gameplay and realistically speaking sucks at depicting WW1.

[hushed nimbus]

nailed it 😂

[arctic grove]

no no the game actually LOOKS better in practice

[mental delta]

What was the problem with that lol ?

[glossy storm]

Does 2042 have mod support?

[tranquil turtle]

there wasn't a problem

[hollow oyster]

no just portal

[arctic grove]

woah there bucko curb your brutal expectations

[sharp dove]

NOOOO

[radiant prism]

Remember when someone made a realism mod for BF1 that just straight up removed all the minorities LMAO

[glossy storm]

I'm so sorry, I was being too toxic.

[radiant prism]

What a fucking tiny brain moment

[arctic grove]

smh those expectations man too brutal

[hushed nimbus]

maybe. tho pushing that trailer forward still means nothing since it is not gameplay. not representstive of how it would have been

[lone wren]

It was a fantasy bf1 gameplay was good in my opinion gunplay was weird but expected for the year of the guns damn random bullet deviation

[hollow oyster]

💀

[sharp dove]

thats kinda realistic tho

[hushed nimbus]

god how toxic can you be?

[arctic grove]

"toxic"

💀

[hushed nimbus]

you are a prime example of what is wrong with the community. a very nice specimen to study

[lone wren]

I shot someone point blank with a M1911 but the bullets was not actually hitting the enemy

[hollow oyster]

how it *could've been, the game displayed in the trailer is different from the game we got and that is a fact, this is not "hating" or saying this or that is better it's just factual

[radiant prism]

Not at all lmao, removing the Indian soldiers from the British faction when millions served is just straight up insulting. And that’s just the tip of the iceberg

[arctic grove]

seems legit apparently memeing is considered toxic nowadays

[sharp dove]

forgot I was in the Battlefield server for a sec I was very confused

[lone wren]

Lmao

[mental delta]

Yes to me neither, it looks like today they want to overrepresent everybody in video games, lol we just to have fun, not to have a complete class about morale education

[hollow oyster]

bro take a break he's just memeing

[hushed nimbus]

it's orbital, it's greyer and it has normal soldiers. also tornadoes

[sinful snow]

it depends, as I said, the artistic vision of BF1 is amazing ... but the texture quality and polygon count on weapons is lower in BF1 than BF2042 if you compare them side by side - check on YT there are plenty videos comparing these games

[kind echo]

as someone who is new to the BattleField franchise, which Battlefield can you guys recommend I play for a truly epic experience?

[tranquil turtle]

bruh toxicity has been in bf since its conception 💀

[fossil kite]

BF4 my dude

[sharp dove]

oh they straight up removed all of them?

[arctic grove]

hard to believe tbh when the game looks like plastic

[kind echo]

thanks

[fervent socket]

Anybody know if you earn weapon xp in portal?

[hollow oyster]

yes, which is different than people flying, saturated colors, and unrealistic (but epic) moments, that internal trailer was just war

[fierce epoch]

Just did the antenna levolution for the first time! It was… underwhelming

[tranquil turtle]

bc2 is pretty cheap on steam, it's not as popular as 4, but you can level entire buildings if that's what you consider epic

[sharp dove]

I agree with Chareq, play bf4. I got it back recently if ur in for playing

[arctic grove]

next gen destruction

[sharp dove]

this game could’ve been so good man

[kind echo]

Thanks - Im purchasing now!

[hollow oyster]

bc2 is epic

[hushed nimbus]

did you ever play a battlefield that was realistic and had no epic moments? it's battlefield, that is the core of it. even BF1 was unrealistic my god

[mental delta]

Really stupid when we know Indian people and African fighters actually got drafted in their countries to fight for France and UK

[sharp dove]

cool! What platform?

[hollow oyster]

yes but there's no use crying now

[fossil kite]

be sure to purchase the Premium Edition

[hardy leaf]

so in a parallel world, bf2042 refunds everyone for the mess they made, scrap the game and make portal as free2play

[arctic grove]

bf1 seemed pretty grounded in reality to me

[lone wren]

I shot my m1911 like a storm trooper on bf1 because of the random bullet deviation

[sinful snow]

on your setup maybe, but on my setup it doesn't look 'plastic' at all ... I'm playing all on Ultra even with HBAO+

[fossil kite]

it has all DLCs

[sharp dove]

I just can’t stop thinking abt how hyped everyone was when the trailer released

[gusty jasper]

No battlefield is realistic

[kind echo]

@sharp dove will be the ps version
@fossil kite thanks for the heads up!

[lilac plinth]

where is Chad?

[lone wren]

It's meant to be arcade like

[arctic grove]

i mean battlefield is grounded in reality but not realistic lmfao

[glossy storm]

Or the game could've been great from the beginning.

[gusty jasper]

Yeh ofc

[hushed nimbus]

bf4 on ps looks quite bad just a heads up. also low number of playable servers

[hollow oyster]

bruh why do you make it sound like i'm complaining and looking at everything so negatively 💀, did i say unrealistic epic moments aren't good? did i say i want battlefield to be some realistic milsim? lol literally take a break bro all the constant arguing is getting to you

[lilac plinth]

[mental delta]

That means no destruction at all apparently,

[arctic grove]

game plays like an actual polished battlefield game

[sharp dove]

still fun when u eventually get a server tho

[hardy leaf]

well, that ship has sailed, but this can be done, make portal free2play, give refunds, and redeem yourself

[hushed nimbus]

since it was made ages ago? obviously it is polished. it is an amazing game

[fierce gull]

It's dice what you expect
They make games great with last updates

[hushed nimbus]

2042 is 2 months old

[mental delta]

Everybody deserted the game years ago yeah, only bfv still have enough players on ps4 and ps5 to be playable

[tranquil turtle]

or just use ai soldier textures as classes, restrict gadgets, get rid of the plus system, and make that aow

[kind echo]

ok cool Im late to it so ig thats to be expected

[sharp dove]

which is more likely to be fixed, Vanguard or Battlefield?

[hushed nimbus]

i played bf4 a few weeks ago and it was fun. it just looks quite bad on the ps5 and it was hard to find games. but man the amount of content was wooooowww

[fierce gull]

Battlefield

[hardy leaf]

None

[hollow oyster]

imagine

BF3 map design
BF4 customization and factions
BF1 atmosphere
BF5 gameplay
BF2042 timeline

[violet sluice]

I don't play CoD so I am unsure but does Vanguard have foundational issues like 2042? Or is it just bugs and lack of content?

[mental delta]

No that's just disrespecting their sacrifices and delete them from history, you wouldn't say that if actually learnt a bit about history and WW1

[hushed nimbus]

you are backpaddeling now. you were conplaining about the direction they took the game in before showing that trailer saying that was better than what we got

[arctic grove]

bugs and bugs

[violet sluice]

You pretty much described what people thought 2042 was going to be like.

[hardy leaf]

i cant give any less shits about historical accuracy, just give me a proper game to play, idgaf about lore or backg story in a multiplayer shooter

[hollow oyster]

vanguard is dogshit but everyone expected a dogshit game so no one really complains and devs don't really have anything to fix

[sharp dove]

its alot tbh, you’ll have to do ur own research on that. I recommend watching Blame Truth

[lone wren]

DICE well known for redemption I trust there will be that redemption like bf4 and bfv

[violet sluice]

I'd say Vanguard will be fixed as 2042 has foundational problems that would require a huge investment from EA/DICE to change.

[hushed nimbus]

Take out BF5 gameplay and it is perfect indeed

[tranquil turtle]

vanguard is just another game that activision shits out to fulfill the prophecy of releasing a game every year in preparation of them making something good the next year

[gusty jasper]

No battlefield game will surpass BF3 map design

[radiant prism]

Hence why this is mostly a case of overinflated expectations. People really expected absolute perfection out of this which is just stupid if you ask me

[mental delta]

I was still playing few months ago but I was spending few minutes each time to find a server but yeah what attracted me the most was the amount of content

[hardy leaf]

its still better than bf2042

[lone wren]

Bfv gunplay good

[hallow sierra]

true

[fierce gull]

Ew no

[gusty jasper]

BFV class play good

[arctic grove]

bfv gunplay and movement is the best in the series

[daring pumice]

Hot take: BFVs gunplay is not good

[tranquil turtle]

grand bazaar 💀 💀 💀

[hushed nimbus]

BF5 gameplay sucks ass lmao

[mental delta]

Cod Vanguard in itself is an issue dude

[violet sluice]

Nobody expected perfection as it's widely known how buggy Battlefield launches are. People expected a Battlefield game and got a hero shooter wrapped in a Battlefield shell with a ton of missing things people expect in a multiplayer FPS game.

[lone wren]

Admit it guys bfv is good actually

[sharp dove]

once there’s better maps and less lag then I’ll come back to 2042 until then count me in playing bf4 babyyyy

[arctic grove]

why is bfv gameplay bad

[daring pumice]

And a bit too much on the realistic side. The animations are good, the movement is good, the actual gunplay is just meh

[hardy leaf]

its better, a lot better than current cod's and 2042s

[hushed nimbus]

Especially the movement...so much unnecessary additions to make it look shiny

[tranquil turtle]

compared to 2042 bf5 is somewhat good

[mental delta]

You can delete 2042 timeline and I'm in

[fossil kite]

MW2019 has the best gunplay ever, if they didn't integrate CW and Vanguard into Warzone I would be still playing it

[hardy leaf]

class system in BFV is perfect

[tranquil turtle]

just wait until ea releases another shitty title and 2042 gets praised as a masterpiece

[hollow oyster]

lol? i wasn't "complaining" about anything, i was saying how disappointed many are that the game went a different direction than the internal trailer which went viral and set our expectations high, in which it is true that the theme that was shown in the trailer is indeed better than the messy theme of the final product in which we have

[sharp dove]

honestly I don’t mind the tac sprint staying

[fierce gull]

Same old same old

[fossil kite]

but oh well, MW2022 is close now

[arctic grove]

it cant get much worse than this

[mental delta]

It's actually not, it's even really good, just a but different from other bf gameplay

[violet sluice]

As much as I shit on 2042 the gunplay is solid.

[daring pumice]

Can't even lean to the side on a wall in BF2042. Even freaking call of duty has that now

[lone wren]

I do want to return to the Vietnam war era

[hardy leaf]

lmfao, i could see that happening,

[hushed nimbus]

Why do I need animations to go on the back. Why do I need animations to get in and out of stuff. Why do I need animations to lean. Why do I get pushed around why explosions

[sharp dove]

I’d love that

[gusty jasper]

You mean intuitive? There's literally separate ledge grab mechanics depending on the height

[arctic grove]

well lets see what mw 2022 brings to the table first cod i will buy since cw if its good

[tranquil turtle]

I would rather have crouch run from 5 in 2042 than tac sprint

[gusty jasper]

And crouch run

[sharp dove]

I would much rather have both

[hushed nimbus]

Simplicity is what made BF3 perfect...not shiny animations

[arctic grove]

crouch run was useful in a lot of situations

[hardy leaf]

what do you think it will bring? they already have 3 unfixed games at their hands, we dont want a 4th one

[violet sluice]

You need these animations or else player models look stiff like this:

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/161931024819945474/932249294176682074/1642302934018.mp4

[lone wren]

M14 battle rifles M16 assault rifles grease guns Owen smgs etc

[tame cobalt]

Correct

[mental delta]

At least they would have an excuse for the few amount of content lol but it would still be buggy and unbalanced

[hushed nimbus]

perfection

[arctic grove]

whats the problem with well thought out and fluid good looking animations?

[hollow oyster]

the negativity from the toxic arguments are getting to you lol, when you started debates here earlier today you had a clear mind with constructive arguments and an open minded view on criticism, now you're just assuming everyone criticising is a complainer and are just hating the game for what it is which some are true but again not all are true @hushed nimbus

[marble dagger]

levelling up weapons in solo... why are the AI so dumb? They won't follow me to the objective

[fierce gull]

What about first person animations

[daring pumice]

I do think DICE in general put way too much emphasis into animationa. It's a game after all, I want it to play good not look realistic if it ruins the gameplay experience

[gusty jasper]

I'll argue vehicle animations were kinda dumb but all other movement options/animations served a good gameplay purpose

[violet sluice]

Animations in 2042 are so poorly made it's really disappointing.

[hazy otter]

It'll be the first CoD I buy since BlOps 1 in 2010. I still kinda regret not getting MW19 before the Warzone implementation

[marble dagger]

leaving me to fend off 6 enemies by myself, which is fine, but I wish they'd at least provide cover

[lone wren]

There is actually a lot of stuff in that era that can be used

[tame cobalt]

Modern guns all feel the same anyway

[violet sluice]

I prefer first person animations over third person but that is subjective.

[arctic grove]

funny part is bf3s animations are more refined than 2042s

[lone wren]

Just previous titles didn't use all of em

[violet sluice]

Yeah the video really shows it.

[daring pumice]

It's like how in BF2042s beta how when you spawned there was an animation to check if there was a bullet in the chamber and you couldn't do anything during the animation so if you spawn in a high contested area you'd probably just get screwed

[arctic grove]

bf3s animations felt like they had weight to them

[hushed nimbus]

I am arguing that time would have been better spent on other stuff. Not like it really happened when they didnt add them. But they could have done it

[hardy leaf]

well all bf's prior to 2042 was made by OG Devs, and 2042 is made by incompetent newbies, dont expect anything

[mental delta]

All these stuff was really good to me, when you look at bf2042 physics and all these ground vehicles and dead bodies flying through the skies, you immediately get what is wrong with that game

[gusty jasper]

I mean even BF3's viewmodel animations arguably felt better

[violet sluice]

The only thing I disliked was the bugged spread but that has been fixed for the most part. (a few weapons it still happens with)

[arctic grove]

2042 is like im taking control of a fucking playmobil

[tame cobalt]

What a small brain take LMAO

[arctic grove]

its true though

[hushed nimbus]

amazing dev right here ladies and gentlemen

[lone wren]

I would love to go ham with the diff AKs

[hardy leaf]

cry more,

[tame cobalt]

No it isn't.

[violet sluice]

With how quickly you replied to it I can tell you didn't even bother watching the video to see how bad the animations are for player models in 2042.

[hollow oyster]

kinda is lol

[lethal path]

do you guys still have hope for this trash?

[mental delta]

True, but regarding Dice laziness and incompetence you suddenly realize it will take them 1 year to give you 30 weapons

[daring pumice]

I just don't understand why there isn't even a scoreboard, or ability to change squads. I don't know if anything I'm doing actually matters without points

[hardy leaf]

cry more simp

[arctic grove]

its no coincidence that almost all of the old bf devs left before 2042 and 2042 turned out like this

[gusty jasper]

I mean all the old Dice devs did leave

[sharp dove]

honestly I don’t like shitting at the devs man. It’s probably more corporate putting stress on them

[daring pumice]

Right now, going off of how they've handled the situation online, nope. They're just pretending everything is ok

[lone wren]

I refer to a Vietnam era but sure

[hushed nimbus]

Well I found 3 people who I know for a fact have small brain energy. Gonna ignore them and discuss with others

[lethal path]

Unbelievable how boring this game is

[arctic grove]

the legacy feature nonsense killed my hope

[tame cobalt]

Definitely isn't lol

[hollow oyster]

also guys @tame cobalt is another troll who aims to fight fire with fire by attacking anyone who criticises 2042, don't fall for it

[lone wren]

It has its moments

[arctic grove]

its obvious

[tranquil turtle]

2042 is his first game, go easy on him bro

[azure lintel]

i never complain about a bf game but this one is just bad haha

[hushed nimbus]

Same devs that are now made 5. Most left after 1

[fierce gull]

Bruh what game modes you playing

[lethal path]

it's the most boring bf game ever

[daring pumice]

Fr

[hollow oyster]

he aint gonna accept any form of criticism or constructive argument and aims to bait you, be careful

[tame cobalt]

I don't attack anyone i simply point out when people have small brains

[sinful snow]

the same 'incompetent' players just started to play this franchise but that doesn't mean we need to bash them ...

[mental delta]

Of course but I believe that it would still be the same unfortunately, 2042 problems would probably be the same on every battlefield they could have made instead, no matter what war it is or what era it happens through

[hollow oyster]

🥱

[lone wren]

I felt like you would of always said that to bfv back then

[sharp dove]

every bf has its moments, that’s literally what only in battlefield is

[daring pumice]

Maps have no gameplay variety. They are all the same open field map requiring vehicles to get around. Infantry combat is just not very fun IMO

[hardy leaf]

small brain takes which are actually facts, lol what a clown you are, bootlicking so hard

[tranquil turtle]

better start pointing at yourself

[lone wren]

Correct

[hollow oyster]

ur falling for his bait

[daring pumice]

That's one thing I think BF1 did very well. Good balance between map style

[marble dagger]

no-one else thinks AI is terrible then? 😅

[hushed nimbus]

let me guess..are you american by any chance?

[mental delta]

That still doesn't make you funny, relevant or smart

[foggy crest]

he is the biggest bootlicker and most delusional fanboy i have ever seen

[lone wren]

AI actually are fine

[arctic grove]

lets hear your big brain take then

[hollow oyster]

he's a troll don't even bother responding

[fierce gull]

Honestly I think infantry combat is fun in breakthrough but in conquest I find it boring

[foggy crest]

i know that

[marble dagger]

how do I get them to follow me into the capture point? Because I'm there taking on 10 of them alone

[arctic grove]

if our factual takes are small brain

[hushed nimbus]

this is a good take

[daring pumice]

I have always enjoyed conquest, and has always been the staple BF mode besides Rush

[gusty jasper]

I mean breakthrough is made for infantry

[lone wren]

Don't worry you got the science team

[sharp dove]

let people have their own opinion, if they like the game let them be. Tbh I can see the fun in it but goddamnit the negatives outweigh the positives

[sinful snow]

For me I don't care who's developing this game, who's publishing it as long as it feels and plays like a Battlefield game - and BF2042 Conquest it does ... could have been developed by the almighty Bill Gates himself, I don't care

[mental delta]

You mean terribly good or terribly bad ?

[marble dagger]

terribly bad

[fierce gull]

True
I just love the game mode in this game cuz of the chaos

[sharp dove]

they cancelled Battlefront 2 for this shit

[gusty jasper]

That's fair

[arctic grove]

This isn’t a battlefield game lmao

[hardy leaf]

even if i am, i fail to see how that has to do with anything

[fierce gull]

Just when it started to get good

[sharp dove]

exactly

[daring pumice]

I just dont udnerstand the people that think since they like the game it's impossible for there to be criticism

[hushed nimbus]

2042 is much more difficult and PTFO battlefield. you can argue it goes back to the roots of 1942 and BF2 ... something that misses in the next entries

[azure lintel]

imo portal is not really whats its cracked up to be either

[gusty jasper]

I'll admit, the experience of this game is plausible on Orbital

[daring pumice]

I've seen so many people on Twitter that are like "screw the haters, Ive had 0 issues, it's the best battlefield yet"

[lone wren]

Bf2 bots anyone

[hushed nimbus]

it makes sense to me no worries

[sharp dove]

when its just the first week of them having the game

[arctic grove]

They can say screw the haters all they want, games already sub 10k players on the regular

[daring pumice]

Blind love for a company that doesn't care about you makes 0 sense to me

[fierce gull]

That's a lie lol
I like this game but there are so many game breaking issues

[hushed nimbus]

also another lie zzz

[mental delta]

I understand what you mean, they act properly and like players sometimes by giving you ammo and health or by capturing points, but in the same time they are weird af and they can't capture objectives in several groups, they move around the map by groups of 30 and take one point at a time

[arctic grove]

Lmfao okay bud

[tender folio]

oh shit, fight is still going.

[daring pumice]

I'm not saying it's a majority but I've seen quite a bunch of people like that lol

[lone wren]

We will give next update a chance

[hallow sierra]

u mean bots right

[marble dagger]

they don't even attempt to kill the vehicles that are massacring them... and if I'm polaying with AI they don't follow me to the point... I've never had them give me ammo either 🤔 '

[hollow oyster]

it's true that the playerbase is dwindling lol

[mental delta]

Yes

[hardy leaf]

its a pile of hot garbage is what it is, if you dont believe that then its alright, just dont comeout here bootlicking EA and arguing against stuff which are "facts"

[daring pumice]

I just want BF to just go silent, or announce something actually meaningful

[lone wren]

I will give next update the chance

[arctic grove]

Bro it ain’t dwindling it’s fucking gone

[fierce gull]

Hopefully it will be good

[hallow sierra]

yea dey dont even revive u in playing solo

[sinful snow]

Criticism will always be ... we are not hypocrites, we are all aware that the game was released in a buggy state / tons of glitches, exploits, rough balancing ... but we can see the bigger picture here

[hushed nimbus]

but not his statistic. again..steam is not representative of the majority of the player base. it sold 4 million units. steam had max player count of 100k

[arctic grove]

I can’t even get a full 64 man match anymore. Always 10+ bots

[lone wren]

Hopefully something

[marble dagger]

I'm not sure they can, because they're not specialists/medics

[hushed nimbus]

they are not "facts" lmao. you also sound antivaxxer

[arctic grove]

😂😂😂😂

[marble dagger]

which I'll forgive them for... but at least give me some help 😅

[tame cobalt]

True

[hardy leaf]

didnt 90% og devs left after bfv? if you say otherwise, you are clearly delusional

[hushed nimbus]

math is hard i know 😦

[hollow oyster]

4 million units across all platforms which is also mainly consoles, steam is pretty much representative of PC

[marble dagger]

the bots seem to just do their own thing and don't care what I'm doing... and when I'm the only player they should be taking notice, providing cover etc

[arctic grove]

Maybe if they had released a battlefield game it would have done better

[fossil kite]

what haha

[mental delta]

Yes they just attack infantry and move around too shy, they never push hardly and never follow orders as you can't give them ones, but to my part I received ammo sometimes and especially got revived a bit, that's a beginning, maybe they will get better over the months

[hushed nimbus]

Origin is representative of PC, do you know who owns BF and Origin?

[ornate osprey]

R.I.P bf 2042

[daring pumice]

Has anyone that's played on PC feel there's an issue with mouse input? Idk what it is but aiming feels so off to me

[arctic grove]

you sound like an anti-vaxxer who rejects facts in favour of their personal agenda and beliefs tbh

[arctic grove]

Who the fuck is playing an fps on console

[hollow oyster]

most of the 2042 playerbase is on steam lol

[fierce gull]

I may be wrong but according to Tom Henderson steam is only 16% of the playerbase

[hushed nimbus]

how do you even know that?

[marble dagger]

128 on HK is always full

[daring pumice]

Come on be respectful here. No need to call each other names

[craggy marten]

Answer me this then: What ISNT wrong with the game?

[lone wren]

Half glass chance I don't like leakers half the time

[sinful snow]

I've heard about issues with mouse pooling rate ... I don't have but I've seen many PC players that had ... try lowering your pooling rate to 500 or 250 and see if it works

[marble dagger]

hazard is dead though

[arctic grove]

EA's wallets

[mental delta]

1.5 month ago they still did to me but since they released their few updates they don't do it anymore, that's weird

[hushed nimbus]

Specialists, gunplay and maybe breakthrough. Rest needs a lot of work

[fierce gull]

Breakthrough so much chaos and fun 🧐

[daring pumice]

They just need to have a permanent 64 player version of the game modes

[fossil kite]

some of you guys seem to forget that BF1 and BFV weren't even available on Steam originally, and now both of them have higher player count than BF2042 lol

[marble dagger]

they should just remove hazard... breakthrough I think they need to concentrate on, it's where everyone tends to play

[tame cobalt]

Cq128 is dope

[mental delta]

You dumb af or just trolling ???

[tranquil turtle]

rush >>> breakthrough

[hushed nimbus]

you are soooo out of touch with reality it hurts my brain

[craggy marten]

Specialists? No. They have a lot of issues, shit ton of them.

Gunplay? Downgrade from BFV.

Breakthrough, that's like the only playable AOW mode that's fun but the maps fuck with the mode due to their excessive scale.

[arctic grove]

Remember when 2042 could actually fill a 128 man server?

[scarlet nimbus]

I enjoy breakthough but don't enjoy the fact it bottlenecks everything

[fossil kite]

not trolling but playing FPS on a console is pure cancer imo

[daring pumice]

I'd rather have a 64 player conquest map that's not barebones In terms of assets and design that also runs better

[marble dagger]

sure, but at least on HK breakthrough is most popular/no bots even on 128...

[sharp dove]

honestly I haven’t had fun in breakthrough yet but that’s probably just me getting shitty lobbies

[marble dagger]

CQ tends to have bots/not enough players... hazard is completely dead

[hushed nimbus]

"they have a lot of issues" like what? and no, gunplay is much better than 5 where guns actually feel different than each other

[hollow oyster]

just because "oh it's battlefield and the primary playerbase for it was origin" doesn't mean majority of the playerbase in on origin, many have moved to steam from origin including myself and steam has a bazillion more users than origin, notice how BF4's playercount increased by a lot when it got released on steam?

[tranquil turtle]

why don't they have any of the fun modes from bf4 like obliteration, carrier assault, or air superiority

[daring pumice]

As a PC player it's disgusting to me to play FPS games on console, but it's a preference of course and there's nothing wrong with having a preference.

[hardy leaf]

well i do, from this gen, PC expensive

[tranquil turtle]

they already have

[mental delta]

I play FPS on consoles most of the time and I prefer playing them on consoles than on pc, that's basically almost the same except you have a controller in hands and not mouse and keyboard

[tame cobalt]

Interesting. In my region breakthrough is always dead, ppl only play cq

[daring pumice]

And this gen is quite an upgrade in performance from last gen

[hardy leaf]

really was hard aiming with controller after years of PC

[sharp dove]

then wtf r they gonna do if they remove breakthrough?

[arctic grove]

The game can’t even sustain its current number of modes.

[fossil kite]

I mean, it's not hard to make all guns feel different where there's only 22 guns in the whole game lmao

[craggy marten]

Specialists are all the same for each team, the only difference being a light in their chest, their voice lines are terrible, and the only reason they exist is to sell skins.

[hallow sierra]

its really true

[hushed nimbus]

Arma and CSGO on PC rest I feel are better enjoyed on console

[arctic grove]

Haven’t seen a full lobby in a month. Likely never will again.

[hardy leaf]

yeah, im a lot better now ,but not near as good as PC

[tame cobalt]

Which is why less is more

[hushed nimbus]

amazing..only visual arguments.because visuals decide how you play the game

[marble dagger]

Asian servers have been carrying PUBG for years... I think they'll carry this as well, since HK is always full

[fossil kite]

you forgot lower fps and fov

[arctic grove]

Got the cowboy Mackay skin

[heavy shuttle]

Yeehaa

[fierce gull]

Badass

[daring pumice]

Can't stand either of those games but I can't stand low framerates in FPS games

[fossil kite]

xDDD

[sharp dove]

LMFAO OF COURSE HE’S A DUMBASS

pls stfu man

[mental delta]

I think dude takes too much crack compared to what his brain can handle

[hallow sierra]

da only thing i need get good on tracking with console it really sucks

[hushed nimbus]

i hate that too don't worry. the lack of content is infurating to say the least. but they all do feel different

[daring pumice]

I can't do under 144fps Anymore for first person shooters

[tame cobalt]

Do u like 2042

[fossil kite]

you mean Woody

[hallow sierra]

i want a gaming pc tbh

[hushed nimbus]

Eh 60 fps is fine. I used to play CS at 144hz so it feels smoother. But 30-60 is the biggest transition

[steep skiff]

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1591520/Clownfield_2042/ BRO

[arctic grove]

LOOOOOOOOOOOL

“60 fps is fine”

[marble dagger]

Right now they're expensive too... I spent a lot on my PC a few years ago

[sharp dove]

bruh ur insulting ppl cos they play on a different platform to u. Ur like a child who’s getting angry cos little timmy won’t let u play with his big new toy

[hallow sierra]

i already know wut specs im looking for but i need da money for it

[hardy leaf]

yes it is fine, for people with jobs lol

[marble dagger]

and I'm praying the graphics card doesn't die

[tame cobalt]

60Fps is not fine, it's great.

[steep skiff]

LOL

[daring pumice]

Everyone's different. Nothing wrong with that. Personally, I can really easily tell the difference and it's game changing for me

[mental delta]

Not if playing on ps5, I play at 60 fps on 2042 and every other FPS games who are adapted to ps5 use

[hushed nimbus]

was about to say that :))

[sharp dove]

fellow lego pfp

[arctic grove]

bruh 60fps may be fine for people who have never experienced more than 60hz but it sucks really hard

[heavy shuttle]

Do people see a cowboy hat on a guy and always think "hey! Its Woody cosplay from Toy Story!"

Mfw cowboy hats are all over the fuckin place here.

[hushed nimbus]

which is what BF is

[hardy leaf]

we agree on something atlast

[steep skiff]

Im gonna play clownfield 2042

[daring pumice]

For framerates I say ignorance is bliss

[arctic grove]

60hz makes me fucking dizzy when playing

[marble dagger]

my monitors are only 75hz though 🤣

[hushed nimbus]

i can't play CS competitively at lower than 144hz anymore

[fierce gull]

Ew Roblox is better

[arctic grove]

60fps is stuttery as fuck to me. Looks awful.

[mental delta]

Yeah it looks like he spent more time taking meth and crack than going to school or getting good education, what a weird motherjammer lol

[arctic grove]

its insanely choppy and stuttery

[daring pumice]

I can do 60 for Third person games

[heavy shuttle]

Making a trip to the feed store in El Paso. gestures widely look at all these Woody wannabes smh

[craggy marten]

There's more.

In the gameplay side of things it affects player behavior due to how individual each specialist is, causing everyone to move out like a plague unless it's a hot zone.

Battlefield is about the mini battles that move your team forward? But how fun can that be when everyone is acting like an individual instead of a unit, alongside that the maps having no variety affects this player behavior, it's all open, making each player wander off to god knows where.

[arctic grove]

60fps makes me feel like I’m experiencing high ping lmfao

[hardy leaf]

if you arent a pro, not planning to earn money with the game, then no need to spend extra for competiting advantage: Pengu.G2

[daring pumice]

Nailed it

[craggy marten]

The cool gadgets and quirks could have all been easily given to the classes without the need of altering a main component for cosmetics.

[daring pumice]

Agreed

[arctic grove]

It’s all irrelevant anyway. Game has already failed. Sub 10k player base on the weekends ain’t looking good.

[arctic grove]

its horrible agreed

[hushed nimbus]

i can do for you a comparison 5 next to 2042 and show you how teamplay is actually better in 2042 due to the new systems

[sinful snow]

Well, me and my small community of 66 active players we all have all BF copies on Origin and we won't move to Steam

[arctic grove]

Ps5 portal has 3 servers

[daring pumice]

The reason they didn't attach it to a class though is that they wanted to sell skins

[hardy leaf]

its gonna be 5k soon

[hallow sierra]

actaully u can get high ping if u have low fps

[fierce gull]

My guy do you have crossplay on?

[fossil kite]

Battlefield 2042 players

[mental delta]

1. It's good (and especially for console players)
2. You know everybody can't afford buying a good pc right ?
3. How many times you got slapped in da face to get such a dysfunctional brain ?

[marble dagger]

crossplay connects to origin/steam/etc as well - turn it on

[hardy leaf]

and most people playing the game is because they paid for it so they are forced to play this dumpster fire to justify their expenses

[hushed nimbus]

fact you took from a random post on reddit? haha

[heavy shuttle]

That you heard from sum person third-hand. Nice fact

[sharp dove]

for the last point, u can’t break whats already broken

[arctic grove]

With picture proof, yeah.

[hardy leaf]

even if they could afford, getting a console is convenient for people with jobs

[hushed nimbus]

i dont feel forced to play it. i am having fun playing it with my group of friends

[tame cobalt]

Dice is holding me at gunpoint forcing me to play their game

[hardy leaf]

Im saying most players which excludes folks like you

[hushed nimbus]

I bet your ass I can out aim you from the PS5

[heavy shuttle]

Picture of the search filter settings to or it's pointless

[hallow sierra]

aim assist isnt even dat good

[hollow oyster]

ah yes OG battlefield fans whose probably had origins for as long as they can remember, and yet most OG fans already quit or have taken a break from playing 2042 and the current playerbase is mostly steam cause origin players would rather play BF4 or any other bf game

[mental delta]

Yeah I think dude is already lost, nobody can fix that type of stupidity

[daring pumice]

What's with the petty console wars bullshit. Come on man

[hushed nimbus]

and I am not even using aim assist since it is broken

[hardy leaf]

well they took people's money, not giving refunds, so people rather just try to take something out of the money they spent

[daring pumice]

That was so 2012

[grand oxide]

Where are the update news?

[arctic grove]

Hahahaahahahahahahahaha

[marble dagger]

funny 😂

[hushed nimbus]

tell me when

[mental delta]

Yes that's also true, but it seems like this guy is just dumb af so he will probably never get conscious of that

[fossil kite]

virgin elitist be like

[daring pumice]

That's probably why everyone is here lmao

[hushed nimbus]

exactly 😂 also i have time to waste arguing with randoms

[hallow sierra]

i tho dey did something cuz i remember scar having a 50 mag but was reduced to 40

[sinful snow]

I see no point in having two separate launchers for the same game ...

[arctic grove]

33% positive reviews on steam btw

[hardy leaf]

its not coming

[hushed nimbus]

they keep of doing stuff and the removing it for some reason

[mental delta]

Says the guy who has probably a 0.30 k/d

[arctic grove]

33% positive reviews

[hushed nimbus]

one game the Nightbird lock on sound was completely different than usual. then it reverted back to normal

[hardy leaf]

"some" reason

[grand oxide]

The lockon sound is still different

[hardy leaf]

bf2042 is going to be free2play

[hushed nimbus]

well we dont know the reason do we? no idea what they are doing in the backend

[hallow sierra]

its funny how dey didnt do anything with rangers and turrets

[hollow oyster]

cause people have bought it on steam and not on origin since steam is overall the better platform for almost everything except battlefield? i and a couple friends have had every battlefield after bc2 on origin and then bought 2042 on steam

[fierce gull]

M8 what makes you think a battlefield game is going free 2 play

[hardy leaf]

Chatting about what they did in holidays

[hushed nimbus]

is it? it reverted back to the normal one for me

[hallow sierra]

even tho dey nerf the scar 50 mag now its 40 and dey still didnt nerf turrets or rangers

[grand oxide]

There are like 3 different lockon sounds but something has to trigger them.. I supposed they ment to be different by soflam or stinger idk

[hushed nimbus]

i also do that at work tho haha

[sinful snow]

if will be Free2PLay will die like Battlefield Play4Free and Battlefield Heroes ...

[hollow oyster]

2042 being free to play is one of the only logical ways to save the game tbh, if this game was free then all this dumpster fire wouldn't be so much of a fire in the first place

[hardy leaf]

because ive never seen such a big disappointed bf launch

[fierce gull]

[grand oxide]

Did you guys know that you CANT repair an vehicle when that vehicle used Smoke for the time Smoke is active? 😄

[hardy leaf]

its gonna die anyways, making it free2play is some redemption

[hushed nimbus]

Yo PC master race lets play

[atomic osprey]

it is played less and less, the game has no future

[hollow oyster]

i mean imagine 2042 being free to play and the only things you gotta pay for are cosmetics, battlepass etc, and maybe a future campaign? like halo infinite style that could actually save the game lol

[fossil kite]

even Cyberpunk 2077 was better, because I actually enjoyed that game on launch despite its bugs and flaws and the story was awesome

[mental delta]

That's weird

[hardy leaf]

lol yeah but people wont get mad since they didnt paid for it, got nothing to loose

[hollow oyster]

at least cyberpunk's bugs came with content, a banger story, and keanu reeves

[marble dagger]

those that paid are going to feel shafted as fuck though

[grand oxide]

its not.. they just ÜÜÜÜ the function.. I mean Smoke does hide something.. obviously it hides to much

[craggy marten]

Good point, that would make the devs even lazier

[hardy leaf]

EA dont believe in free2play stuff much, apex being an exception

[hushed nimbus]

it was trash on PC as well lmao

[sinful snow]

Why would you want to discontinue your library between two stores if all of the past titles were in the same place?! Steam being a better platform for Battlefield is irrelevant

[hardy leaf]

arent they feeling it already?

[daring pumice]

I hope not tbh. Great way to add tons of hackers to the game

[hollow oyster]

because battlefield is not the only game pc players play?

[somber pebble]

They just model their games like ftp

[marble dagger]

there are already tons of hackers sadly

[daring pumice]

BF development just needs competent leadership

[fossil kite]

nowhere near the base console level

[mental delta]

Lol it's like you are feeling superior because you are a pc player

[hushed nimbus]

yup, so true

[daring pumice]

Cyberpunk was Incredibly mediocre

[hardy leaf]

well i agree that ps4 wasnt powerful, however ps5 and series x are good performance wise, equal to an above average pc IMO with right optimization

[grand oxide]

https://tenor.com/view/pc-master-race-gaming-the-feels-gtx1080-gif-7941212

[hushed nimbus]

but 2042 will make a comeback, i am sure of it, despite how many people want it to burn

[fierce gull]

It's how dice rolls

[fossil kite]

that's because he is lol, I'm playing on PC as well but that kind of elitism is pure cancer to me

[hardy leaf]

Console players with console only crossplay wont have to worry about hackers

[daring pumice]

I don't want to hate on 2042, I just want to love it

[hushed nimbus]

funnier when you play on both PC and console and you love both

[daring pumice]

I've seen hackers on console before

[somber pebble]

If they scrap specialists

[fierce gull]

What they gonna do about the ultimate edition users

[hushed nimbus]

which will never happen anyway

[grand oxide]

you sure, what did they do excatly?

[empty bloom]

id like a refund

[hardy leaf]

i would see a comeback if the game was good at the core and only had bug, glitches and server problem, but currently i dont see any comeback because game is hugely flawed at the core

[somber pebble]

Fuck em, they got scammed already

[mental delta]

The problem is also EA which asked Dice to implement content we see in all other games like cosmetics and specialists, I think they will have to make drastic changes if they want to make better games

[sinful snow]

Yes, but having to run two separate launchers for the same game is dumb ... I don't see the benefits especially if you are (in general) a Battlefield fan which already owns past titles on Origin

[hushed nimbus]

we will see

[arctic grove]

They should release an actual battlefield instead of this spin off garbage.

[somber pebble]

Selling a premium on a broken game

[hushed nimbus]

Well all this 2042 talking made me wanna play it. Anyone wants to game?

[daring pumice]

Tbf I haven't played a multiplayer console game since COD WW2 in like 2017 but I've seen hackers with auto aim, teleporting and all that stuff. have you ever played world at war on console? Lol

[hallow sierra]

wut was even in da ultimate edition

[fossil kite]

pain and suffering

[hardy leaf]

Being scammed is bootlicking for someone without being paid,

[mental delta]

Yeah this guy can't just understand the fact everybody can't get a good pc

[hushed nimbus]

PS5 but I crossplay also

[somber pebble]

Paid access to a beta XD

[wise zodiac]

Hey, let's keep it civil.

[hardy leaf]

whoever is

[fiery shoal]

you have to utterly shit on bf/dice/ea to not be considered a shill/defending/bootlicking

[hardy leaf]

lmao, you are joking, bank doesnt care about it

[marble dagger]

don't do that wirth steam they'll close your entire acct

[sonic stag]

i bet he is not, most vredit card companies will do this. I have gotten refunded for a few purchases when seller would not accept returns

[hushed nimbus]

and they will succeed haha

[hardy leaf]

ohh, well i got saved by EA play free trial

[sonic stag]

same here, beta was slightly eye opening, but ea play convinced me to skip 2042

[hushed nimbus]

let me ask you a question. and it is a normal one. you tried the game for free, you hated it. you have said your grievances before. why are you still here? as in why still complain and talk about it wherever you can. what is the point if you are not playing it anymore or have the intention to play anymore. isnt it a waste of time?

[hardy leaf]

i was fighting with my friends that ill buy bf2042 day one its gonna be good, regardless of what they think of beta, i thought it will be a finished product at launch, my expectations are low but holy fuck

[fierce gull]

I'm gonna burn my house down if this game does a battlefront 2 move and people like it at the last update of the game

[daring pumice]

Same lol. I hope they just put it on ea play already tbh

[fierce gull]

EA play pro

[daring pumice]

Yeah but they should put it on the normal version that comes with game pass while they're at it

[arctic grove]

ea shot themselves in the foot with the ea play trial

Imagine if the people who didn’t like the game left the discord. This channel would be as vacant as the game itself

[hushed nimbus]

i mean i know why I am fighting for it since I am still playing it. but if I hated something so much I would just move on.

[fiery shoal]

the only major problem for me at launch was hit reg (of course balancing was bad but thats a different topic)

[hardy leaf]

well i just came from work, and getting bored so talking shit about a game which i was looking forward to and got disappointed is kind of my thing

[arctic grove]

And hit reg still doesn’t work

[grand oxide]

hit reg is still +*+äää

[fiery shoal]

lets just say peoples arent logical, and/or they are wanting to fit in

[arctic grove]

same

[hardy leaf]

better than getting bored

[hushed nimbus]

yeah but for how long have you been doing it? like it has been 2 months since launch. isnt it getting old?

[hardy leaf]

lmao

[hollow oyster]

too bad the "battlefield fans" in which you're talking about aren't the main playerbase of 2042, they're playing V or 4 just to wait till 2042 gets the next patch, actually many of today's battlefield playerbase is from steam, BF4 had like 4k daily players back in 2018-2019 and then the playercount absolutely exploded when battlefield came back to steam, this may be a bit irrelevant but almost all the streamers which play 2042 today are from steam

[wise zodiac]

Hey man, I'd recommend that you read #server-news.

If you're going to do that just because, it's not acceptable here.

[arctic grove]

its a game i looked forward to and had hope for to actually be good but oh boy was i a fucking fool

[fiery shoal]

@arctic grove @grand oxide strange, ive not questioned hit reg since the 2nd update to it

[grand oxide]

What are you playing mostly? Infantry?

[fiery shoal]

100% infantry, i only use vehicles to get to places/spawn points

[hardy leaf]

no i just do it when im bored and dont feel like playing anything, also whatever i say is honest, not here to troll

[hushed nimbus]

everything. here and there. i hate vehicles cuz they are quite underpowered

[grand oxide]

I am playing vehicles and the shells of most vehicles just dont do any dmg at all

[arctic grove]

also playing on steam automatically opens origin

I love playing with 30 bots per match

[hushed nimbus]

fair enough. honesty is good. but you also are probably stubborn and don't want to have your mind changed about stuff

[hardy leaf]

no m not trolling, this is exactly how i feel and i feel disappointed and here is the only place where i find like minded individuals

[arctic grove]

its too toxic dude gotta have constructive feedback

[hushed nimbus]

also another reason why I hate tanks

[arctic grove]

because everyone here cares about feedback after all

[vivid nacelle]

I do wonder how you get such a bad experience. Never saw a bot since launchday. Or youre overreacting which is a lot more likely

[hardy leaf]

how can i change my mind, the game hasnt changed enough for people to change their mind

[hushed nimbus]

you havent said any type of criticism until now

[fiery shoal]

pretty sure your "talking shit about a game" falls under this

[hardy leaf]

constructive feedback is a meme at this point

[arctic grove]

why should we have constructive feedback in a general discussion channel

like why is it a requirement

[fiery shoal]

why cant you just NOT shit on the game?

[arctic grove]

Why lie?

[arctic grove]

because there isnt much i cant shit on

[wise zodiac]

Here's where you're wrong. And if you'd read the server news post, you'll see that you're wrong.

I don't care if you criticize the game and provide constructive feedback.

Coming in here to shit on the game just because you're bored isn't going to fly.

[hardy leaf]

80% of people in this channel should be banned if you go by this, dont target just me

[arctic grove]

this isnt some developer driven feedback channel

[vivid nacelle]

Why not? Youre here to shit on the game.

[hallow sierra]

wait holon now wut i do

[hollow oyster]

so basically we're talking about 2042's playerbase, and a guy says that steam statistics are irrelevant, basically saying that "oh just because steam lost 60.87% of it's playerbase throughout the month doesn't mean the game is dying, we still have origin players 😎"

[fiery shoal]

youre the recent inquiry on this, and i agree a vast majority of users should be banned based on that, sadly it doesnt seem to be upheld

[arctic grove]

“Why can’t you just compliment the failed game?”

this is a public discussion channel

i dont really understand this constructive feedback requirement tbh

[fiery shoal]

100% agree, i dont even care for the game myself, but you dont see me here only to shit on it

[violet sluice]

yeah you're wrong on this one man. I have been shitting all over 2042 and I am not censored, but you need to provide constructive criticism.

[hardy leaf]

yeah start a petition on change.org for it, but stop tagging me pls with baseless accusations

[wild stag]

Been playing battlefield since bf2 then the bad company’s 1943, 3, hardline 4 and 1, they have all had issues some more than most. 4 probably one of the worst at launch but now a classic. I personally really enjoy 2042. And I’m sure it will only get better not just with new 2042 content and fixes but the possibility’s with portal and all the classic maps coming back👍 people just need some patience. Moaning wont get anyone anywhere?

[fiery shoal]

if thats youre interpretation of what i said youre reading comprehension is horrible and your conclusion jumping is concerning

[arctic grove]

the thing is i wont regurgiate the same constructive feedback that has been pointed out endlessly

[hollow oyster]

this is good

[radiant echo]

[tender folio]

[earnest verge]

[wise zodiac]

Being toxic for the sake of being toxic isn't acceptable.

You want to provide feedback, provide feedback.

Saying "fuck this trash game" isn't providing feedback, and it's repetitive spam.

[violet sluice]

You should though! If you stop letting your voice be heard EA/DICE will take it as a sign and not do anything about those issues.

[fiery shoal]

ive not accused you of anything, id just report you to modmail and move on

[hallow sierra]

i want some popcorn

[tender folio]

you can take it for free, here 🍿

[hallow sierra]

thx

[arctic grove]

also i have a brilliant idea: a constructive requirement for people constantly praising the game

so both sides of the coin are covered

[radiant echo]

That's not what we're saying

[daring pumice]

See, you say this but the thing is the game has been out for like 2-3 months now and the BF social media account has been SILENT on acknowledging issues, or promising to fix anything. They are just continuing to market it like everything's all good. It's a little worrying IMO

[sinful snow]

Battlefield 5 or 4 exploded when it got on Steam because of the sales like 90% off ... I've seen Steam CD-Keys for BFV on grey market at $2.50 which is a steal considering it's still a solid game ... I would buy for all my friends at that price no matter how many are they ... but what I'm trying to say is that I don't believe the main PC playerbase for BF2042 is on Steam, I tend to believe it's on Origin and let's not forget EPIC had some awesome Christmas sales for BF2042 too

[arctic grove]

I totally forgot there’s a season one coming in March

[arctic grove]

the devs dont even care about this channel lol

[fiery shoal]

nothing i have said gives an indication that im a "snowflake"... i was just answering your question

[vivid nacelle]

Moderation here could be a lot more strict. But they dont, because they know to be careful, because every moderation can be seen as "omygod theyr silecing the playerbase". No Karen, youre being obtuse and toxic

[earnest verge]

false

[arctic grove]

also if ea and dice actually listened to constructive feedback the game wouldnt be what it is today

[fiery shoal]

bit extreme and an oversimplification, but basically yea

[arctic grove]

Don’t be sad. That’s just how it works out sometimes

[arctic grove]

angel does it again

ngl tho the only thing i can praise about this game is the meme value

[tiny imp]

At least they promise to fix godmode off in Battlefront 2

[fiery shoal]

im not trying to enforce the rules, they just seemed confused why a mod was talking to them about what they said, and i showed it.

[daring pumice]

This game was also released WAY too early. Should have been delayed several more months tbh

[arctic grove]

the 2042 memes that came into existence are great

[somber pebble]

??

[arctic grove]

I’m impressed by this games ability to be in the top 10 worst games on Steam

[fierce gull]

Top 20*

[arctic grove]

speaking of which: which rank is it occupying now

[sinful snow]

and at the same time it has been nominated for Steam 2022 Game Awards ...

[radiant echo]

Can we not.

[wise zodiac]

Let's be civil now.

[arctic grove]

LMAO

[fierce gull]

Lmao how tf did it do that

[hasty oyster]

agreed man if they delayed this and worked on it for a couple months we wouldn’t be here arguing lmao

[hallow sierra]

wait fr

[arctic grove]

worst game of the year award 2022

[fierce gull]

The fact that fans voted

[wild stag]

@daring pumice last update was mid December then we had Christmas? People gunna take a break, it’s only now the middle of January. I’m sure we will have an update by the end of the month and a fairly significant one with c4 drones being nerfed etc and maybe operation locker ( from a screen I saw on here the other day). patients!

[fierce gull]

Finally C5 drones are getting removed

[sinful snow]

I don't want to offend anybody, but reading the results I was surprised too, Steam users nominated BF2042 at the 'Game that I suck playing at'

[echo yew]

buff the ntw50

[arctic grove]

damn

[hasty oyster]

honestly people voted for it because it’s battlefield not because it’s good

[arctic grove]

ok that was totally unexpected

[radiant echo]

Lol why

[sinful snow]

https://store.steampowered.com/steamawards/#BestGameYouSuckAt

[echo yew]

either have it one shot anywhere in the torso at all ranges or let it damage vehicles again, or simply buff it's bullet velocity, shit's heavy and slow as fuck

[radiant echo]

It's too good tbh

[arctic grove]

"games i suck playing at"

[hollow oyster]

man i suck at among us ngl

[wild stag]

@arctic grove you say the devs don’t care about this channel there were 2 on here sat morning talking to us

[echo yew]

man it takes for fucking ever to join a lobby in this game it's so fucking dead lol

[daring pumice]

I hope so. I'm just glad I refunded it considering it's current state. If I paid $60 for it I'd be quite pissed

[hallow sierra]

cuz u have crossplay off

[hasty oyster]

ngl i suck at adventure capitalist

[echo yew]

wrong

[arctic grove]

chatting in discord channel != giving a shit about feedback here

[hushed nimbus]

if i would be a dev i wouldnt even look at discord or reddit considering how much toxicity there is. i am glad they were brave enough to be here

[echo yew]

"waiting for players to join"

[sinful snow]

The majority of Steam users who nominated BF at this category didn't really understand what this category supposed to mean and that's why I avoid saying bad words about Steam users who bought BF2042

[arctic grove]

wait what

[radiant echo]

yup

[hallow sierra]

wait wut was bf nomiante to

[wild stag]

£80 but I’ve already had 350 hrs and done all the achievements and o still enjoy wrecking the other team with a t90 so had my £80 worth🤪

[echo yew]

so you would ignore criticism.

[sinful snow]

https://store.steampowered.com/steamawards/#BestGameYouSuckAt - check here 🙂

[echo yew]

you can't just keep living in your echochamber :/

[arctic grove]

i mean on bfv the devs were pretty active on reddit

[radiant echo]

Would ignore toxicity

[wise zodiac]

No, they would ignore toxicity. Death threats, threats of burning down DICE/EA with them still inside, etc.

[hushed nimbus]

that is not criticism lmao

[arctic grove]

ok hol up i never seen anyone say that

[fiery shoal]

its absolutely mind blowing how people confuse criticism with outright shitting on something

[sinful snow]

It didn't won this category but it was nominated alongside Nioh 2, AOE IV, Naraka, WorldWarZ

[hasty oyster]

they was saying that a lot of it while being criticism is toxic as fuck and basically mini chernobyl

[wise zodiac]

Just because you don't see it doesn't mean it doesn't happen

[hushed nimbus]

if you havent seen it it doesnt mean it does not exist lmao

[hallow sierra]

i dont know half of those games

[wise zodiac]

I can't tell you how many times I've removed messages for shit like that.

[arctic grove]

i have never seen anyone actually sending them death threats on discord

[wise zodiac]

They have.

[violet sluice]

I have.

[hushed nimbus]

maybe because they are removed?

[arctic grove]

anyone who does that is a fucking loser

[fiery shoal]

you mean.. those things can be removed?! crazy

[wise zodiac]

[hushed nimbus]

nici pfp tho

[arctic grove]

imagine being so desperate that you send death threats to devs 💀

[hasty oyster]

btw thanks mod team here you make my job of reading this messages easier so thank you mods

[echo yew]

simply apologize to your community.

[daring pumice]

Galaxy brain move

[wise zodiac]

So now, maybe, you can start to understand why we want CIVIL conversation, not toxicity.

[arctic grove]

no one sent any death threats in the past 15 min tho

[vivid nacelle]

Ftr, I stay away too from toxic environments where they criticize my employer because at the end of the day, Im not married to my job and im not paid to read the same bshit all day long. So I understand devs not being active in the community. They have to dev job. Its up to community leaders to communicate w the playerbase

[daring pumice]

Calling people names doesn't solve anything

[echo yew]

what is a civil conversation and what is toxicity though

[hushed nimbus]

one guy tried to ask for patience and understanding and he was destroyed and memed into the ground

[violet sluice]

Yeah the mods are are pretty lax when it comes to moderating. I don't envy their jobs in this Discord that's for sure.

So i'd like to take a moment and thank the mods here for being great sports and putting up with us.

[wise zodiac]

... do you really have to ask that question?

[echo yew]

like anyone can say that criticism is toxic or some shit and simply ignore it

[hollow oyster]

the people who send death threats are the same people that eat nothing but doritos all day and bought 2042 ultimate edition with their abusive uncle's stolen credit card

[fiery shoal]

for sure, 100% dont like the game, point out all its flaws, hell i dont even mind the toxic comments as long as thats not their sole reason to being there, but deaths threats and other shit is just insane

[arctic grove]

the brutal expectations meme is too good

[daring pumice]

Man I remember being in this discord when BFV launched. man that was a yikes

[brittle forge]

I mean even shitting on something is “criticism” albeit not constructive criticism. Death threats and other stuff is a different story, but “game bad” isn’t in the same boat as that.

[wild stag]

People are stupid that’s why, typing stupid toxic bs without thinking about it. Just slaging the game instead of constructive criticism?

[hasty oyster]

thank you mods your jobs and trying isn’t falling under blind eyes

[hushed nimbus]

hey I also find it hilarious at times but the dude was legitimately trying to calm down things...turned out it made it worse

[fiery shoal]

are you really trying to be all philosophical about something pretty clear cut?

[echo yew]

i don't make the rules here, i could simply say "this review is too harsh therebefore toxic and i will delete/ignore"
i've seen it been done before.

[radiant echo]

Constructive criticism would be great

[left kraken]

we want news

[wise zodiac]

"This game is shit" - not criticism.

"I don't like this game because the gunplay feels off." - criticism.

[arctic grove]

the way he worded what he said was very misleading

[fiery shoal]

agreed

[radiant echo]

https://tenor.com/view/winterz-soon-gif-19096204

[arctic grove]

i have never even thought about sending death threats to any kind of dev because the game was bad lmfao

[hushed nimbus]

yeah it was way off but he just asked for patience and understanding that people need breaks. i mean that is all what he said not even trying to bash the community

[wise zodiac]

[hushed nimbus]

in the end the devs are low level employees. hold team leads and management accountable if you really want to

[left kraken]

4 games left and bf2042 disappear of most played games on xbox 🤣
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/store/most-played/games/xbox

[vivid nacelle]

What normal person would tho... to anyone

[brittle forge]

I get what he was trying to say but it is their fault they released a broken game in Q4. I feel for the average grunt-level dev but I think the management deserves everything other than the genuinely over the line stuff like the threats. But outside of that my sympathy is pretty limited for DICE management

[hasty oyster]

i personally don’t like this game because it doesn’t feel like the games before that i actually like and the voice lines are kinda cringe but i’m not gonna go tell devs to game end themselves because i don’t like what they made

[naive quiver]

The Battlefield 2042 has reached 90k bad reviews on steam 😂😂😂😂

[arctic grove]

people who send death threats to game devs should go to a therapist or sth

[wise zodiac]

Just because you haven't, doesn't mean that others haven't.

We're trying to keep this chat civil, free of toxicity.

I'd appreciate everyone's help in this.

[echo yew]

personally i think season one needs to 180 this game completely, some ideas should be discarded (lol) to improve the game, but first they need to apologize and address the criticism, then do a complete roadmap and be transparent because right now? the game is in such a poor state and Dice/EA have continued to consistently avoid adressing the problems with this game from official sources that it feels like a money grab.

[hushed nimbus]

yeah no, i agree with you. management is at fault for sure

[wise zodiac]

This is civil, constructive feedback.

[daring pumice]

Well well, that was fun "IN A WORLD DESTROYED BY NATURAL DISASTERS CAUSED BY GLOBAL WARMING, KILLING MILLIONS"

[arctic grove]

leaks look very very disappointing

[left kraken]

Apex > BF2042

[radiant echo]

nope

[hushed nimbus]

please dont say Tom Henderson is your official source

[wise zodiac]

This is civil and constructive feedback.

[arctic grove]

"cmon, this is too easy"

[radiant echo]

Let's see how it goes and hope for the best 🤞

[hasty oyster]

i don’t like either honestly apex too boring and sweaty imo and battlefield just doesn’t feel good imo

[hushed nimbus]

don't be sad; easy in easy out

[arctic grove]

DONT BE SAD, THIS IS JUST HOW THINGS WORK OUT SOMETIMES

[daring pumice]

I'm sorry but those voicelines are honestly kind of insulting

[hushed nimbus]

I must say the cringy quips are the best thing to come out of 2042. I overuse them in real life

[hollow oyster]

bruehshshehhd

[daring pumice]

That blantantly shows what your true intent is

[left kraken]

bf2042 gold edition is a scam, include a year pass and still no have news

[naive quiver]

Are you sure nope 🤣🤣

[arctic grove]

last time i played 2042 i muted my game when those cringy ass quips played

[hollow oyster]

when are they removing voice lines

[hasty oyster]

yea like atleast in bf3 the kinda dumb lines are actually funny to some degree

[arctic grove]

i want some duct tape skin which seals their mouths shut

[daring pumice]

Battlefields appeal to me was that it wasn't silly like call of duty

[hollow oyster]

yes

[arctic grove]

i would pay for that if i was playing 2042 for the sake of my sanity no joke

[hushed nimbus]

it's very interesting that you guys can't phase out the quips. i dont even hear them anymore

[radiant echo]

https://tenor.com/view/winterz-soon-gif-19096204

[daring pumice]

Like Battlefield isn't a milsim by any means, there's some hella funny shit in it, but it was never really "childish" I guess

[arctic grove]

there was probably an asterisk which states it applies only to the second year of support

[hushed nimbus]

I dont feel this one is childish either outside of quips and maybe visuals of some specialists

[sinful snow]

Same here, I never knew what they were actually saying before this entire meme fiasco ...

[arctic grove]

god i hate asterisks

[hollow oyster]

yes battlefield isn't like a realistic milsim but it's never been "goofy"

[fiery shoal]

which is 59,840 negative reviews

[radiant echo]

Guys Guys I know what we want in the game

[dull badger]

More stars

[wise zodiac]

Penguins with guns?

[echo yew]

remove the "fune and quirky!!!" one liners entirely, light hearted hero shooters are 3-5 years dead already.
either remove specialists by making them skins for classes, or have them belong to a certain class.
cut down some areas of the maps for infantry focused maps
nerfs to vehicles such as the bolte and nightbird
6-8 new weapons per season as a bare minimum
2-3 new maps per season
optimize the game, it still has a long way to go
buffs to weapons such as the NTW (too many drawbacks for one standout) and the MCS 880 (simply a worse Saiga)
more gadgets
better communication, this corporate radio silence needs to go.
add more clutter and objects to maps with too much open space.

this is my take

[sinful snow]

1/3 of them came out from Free Weekend

[arctic grove]

its grounded in reality but not some realistic milsim and its definitely not goofy (exception being 2042)

[daring pumice]

It's just very clear this game is trying to capture the same tone as apex and warzone instead of being it's own thing

Screw the trends, just be consistent and good

[wise zodiac]

We need more penguins with guns.

[hushed nimbus]

stopped at nerf boltes and nightbirds...

[sinful snow]

with flamethrowers 😄

[radiant echo]

This

[hasty oyster]

bf4 but all the coolish stuff from 2042 like the tornado

[radiant echo]

Well I got a whole set 😅

[dull badger]

And sparkling thingies

[arctic grove]

oh my god what is this horrendous deploy screen

[hushed nimbus]

for sure..plague of 2022 gaming

[echo yew]

doesn't even have to be a severe nerf, can simply give them a weakness that infantry players or other vehicles can use

[daring pumice]

Give me BF3 with vaulting and a better UI

[brittle forge]

Kinda surprised the devs didn’t seem to take inspiration from BF1 apocalypse when trying to make 2042’s atmosphere. I know it’s a different time period but I’m just saying those maps were definitely hellscapes

[arctic grove]

operation locker in 2042 is a recipe for disaster

[echo yew]

because as it stands now, if the game continues down this road, MW2022 is gonna eat us alive

[hushed nimbus]

they have lmao. you probably just dont know how to play against them

[radiant echo]

PenguinCasper

[hollow oyster]

i guess devs were overconfident in thinking goofy quips would make the game quirky eh

[daring pumice]

BF1 was such a beautiful game

[hasty oyster]

what happened to locker why is the deploy screen so bad

[dull badger]

Is this possible in portal? 👀

[echo yew]

my dude you really just used the "skill issue" card lol i wont be listening to you anymore.

[radiant echo]

Cuz I made it

[arctic grove]

i genuinely want to know who at dice thought that was a good idea lmao

[dull badger]

I haven't really made a portal server myself so if locker is possible that would be great for trying

[arctic grove]

no bf4 maps in portal

[echo yew]

they wanted to attract the hero shooter crowd but forgot that hero shooters died years ago

[dull badger]

Oh very sad

[radiant echo]

Or.... An expansion like that one 🔥

[hollow oyster]

could be EA who decided it, but well who knows what's going on in the dumpster fire of a devs workstation rn

[hasty oyster]

poor locker probably up there in infamy with shipment and metro

[hazy otter]

Probably the guy that was head of candy crush before BF2042

[wild oxide]

Overwatch is still alive tho

[dull badger]

Maybe in an update they'll appear

[hushed nimbus]

tho it is not a hero shooter zzz

[echo yew]

LOL

[brittle forge]

I don’t get the design decisions for the characters of the specialists. The abilities are whatever but character-wise it’s like they’re trying to compete with Apex when Apex is an EA game

[hollow oyster]

💀

[radiant echo]

We have shipment in 2042

[gusty jasper]

Uhh....

[dull badger]

Oh metro 128 sounds like perfectly organized chaos

[radiant echo]

Which is Noshar Canals

[arctic grove]

im unsure if he left or still is head of 2042

[hasty oyster]

i mean cod shipment like mw2019

[hushed nimbus]

i think he left

[radiant echo]

Ah yeah gotcha

[echo yew]

Manifest is a good map, Renewal and Orbital are decent maps, the rest are either too open or too empty.

[radiant echo]

who

[daring pumice]

Not even close to as much as it was years ago as someone who plays overwatch daily

[arctic grove]

that candy crush lead dev or sth who was head of dice

[brittle forge]

Do you guys think the next game is going to be 128 players or that they’ll dial it back down to 64?

[fiery shoal]

2042 isnt a hero shooter because it was 2 minor aspects of a hero shooter in it, and where are we getting numbers for OW playerbase?

[hushed nimbus]

i hope tkey keep 128 players

[arctic grove]

128 players = free marketing

[dull badger]

Manifest is cool and renewal too. When you reach the plantations

[echo yew]

tbh i think they should go with both, big 128p modes and 64p modes

[hushed nimbus]

thank you, i was too lazy to type it down

[radiant echo]

lead dev is about organizing team as I think not about game design choices

[daring pumice]

I hope they get rid of 128 players be side it limits what they can do asset wise and visually

[dull badger]

128 players is amazing. If I have a choice I rather play 128 then 64

[arctic grove]

what is a candy crush dev doing on battlefield in the first place

[echo yew]

128 players can be done, it was just executed poorly here

[hushed nimbus]

but it is much fuuuuuuuuuun..

[radiant echo]

Probably 128

[hasty oyster]

imma be honest i really enjoined modern warfare 2019 and am sadden that it’s currently broken for me

[hushed nimbus]

Anyway who wants to play a game of 2042? Hands uupp

[radiant echo]

Probably cuz of his leadership

[brittle forge]

If they keep 128 I hope the optimize the shit out the engine so we can get some of the detail and performance back

[hazy otter]

Making design choices to further the games potential profitablity

[radiant echo]

not about the game

Leading teams is probably

I know this is more than likely the maps but I feel like 128 players only plays well on breakthrough and on conquest it plays terribly

They need to make good varied maps for 128 players to work

128 players is too chaotic in my opinion. I like chaos in Bf, but controlled chaos. At least on these maps, which imo are pretty much all poorly designed.

Sorry but what is AoW?

[arctic grove]

standard bf

Leading teams =/= monetization design choices lol

Not everything boils down to game design as a developer.

Leadership ability, logistical experience, team building, etc.

[daring pumice]

I enjoyed 64 players alot more with the current selection of maps

[hazy ruin]

all out warfare

There's a reason BF2042 feels like a cheap mobile game knockoff

[sinful snow]

All Out Warfare - main mode 🙂

[dull badger]

I started really gaming like 1.5 years ago so all those short thingies... meh can't understand it

Fun fact the former DICE GM

Like outside of special featured weekly playlists and bot matches I’ve barely touched Conquest
