battlefield-2042

[novel raptor]

I've never played a game that gets worse with each update

[old ridge]

I hate 2042 movement codddd

[white geyser]

They better make a plan in order to make a comeback move, EA you fuck us really bad and end up in the terrible situation.

[novel raptor]

I mean I really want the game to be good, its a solid base and I enjoy playing it sometimes but the bugs man
So. Many. Bugs.

[empty bloom]

guys xbox won’t let me refund 😞

im sad

[real crown]

I actually wanted to have fun in this game but I cant even load into matchs...

[dusky blade]

Same man, same

I encounter so many slide spamming bunny bopping morons

[safe verge]

When are they going to remove c5 droning

Idk what kind of brain dead decision prompted the need to add that

[desert elbow]

People say this then proceed to c4 jeep in previous battlefields

It’s not meant to make sense, it’s battlefield

[safe verge]

More respectable than a drone that's super tiny

At least i can see the jeep

[desert elbow]

A drone with flashing red and green spotlights on it?

[safe verge]

While I'm in a tank trying not to die from all the other dicks shooting at me?

[next onyx]

At least with a c4 Jeep you can see it and hit it.

Can't see the drone as easily.

[desert elbow]

By your logic if you were focusing on people shooting at you, you wouldn’t bother shooting the jeep either

[calm meadow]

We also have the people that go around and roadkill people with the BF3 drone, as well as the people who roadkill with UCAVs. As unfortunate as it is for the receiving end, this kind of content is what makes Battlefield what it is.

[desert elbow]

Nothing new, see mira’s msg above

[ashen wadi]

Plus with C4 jeeps the driver is at risk too. C4 drones just require the guy to hide somewhere safe.

[desert elbow]

Hide somewhere that’ll leave then vulnerable if someone finds them

[next onyx]

Don't even need to expose yourself with the drone

A Jeep has you at massive risk

[desert elbow]

Neither with UCAVs or any other unmanned vehicle

[next onyx]

People may of hit you with the ucav but that didn't destroy your tank in a single hit.

Ucav was unironically better balanced than these drones.

[desert elbow]

Well then adjust your tank play style

[calm meadow]

Ah, and we also have the people who switch teams and deliberately place explosives around, so their friend on the other team can blow them up with a drone.

[next onyx]

Yes, adjust tank style by sitting 250m away from the objective. That's really helpful.

250 300

[ashen wadi]

Artillery truck style. People loved those a lot didn't they

[desert elbow]

It is when you’re on maps with no cover

[next onyx]

1. Knock it off with the constant reply pings

2. On provence an open map the only thing I had to fear were tanks you could be extremely useful and push and actually help.

Become an anchor for your team, that's what tanks are amazing with.

[desert elbow]

Relax lol, don’t cry about someone pinging you,

Also Provence isn’t open

[next onyx]

I don't mind sundance and c5 because that at least requires you getting close.

When I tell you to stop, knock it off

[calm meadow]

Much of tank combat is luck-based, unfortunately. Either you have to constantly move around or stay back, or risk having the Battlefield community have their way with you. Admittedly, I’ve been both the giver and the receiver.

[desert elbow]

I did? Relax

[next onyx]

Last warning.

[calm meadow]

He means to stop replying to his messages, Herr Siem.

[next onyx]

I think the way tanks have been dealt with in 2042 outside of drones i like mostly

[calm meadow]

Like this.

[desert elbow]

I’ve clicked the @ off thing in my previous 2 messages, dunno if it’s because I’m on mobile or something

[next onyx]

The cannon could use a bit of a splash buff.

But I like tanks, but how the other things have been dealt with its an eh.

Glad they're looking into removing c5 drones, when they'll remove it is good as anyone's guess.

[ashen wadi]

Speaking of tanks. Has anyone actually been killed by tank mines yet?

[next onyx]

No

[calm meadow]

I do like the more modern version of tank combat/gameplay. It’s much smoother than the previous Battlefields.

[next onyx]

Bf5's combat is good

I miss it when the pacific tanks could two hit kill each other from the front

[calm meadow]

2042 has improved the overall vehicle gameplay in general, in my opinion. Though infantry gameplay is fun, I can’t deny that it still needs work.

[next onyx]

A lot of things are very off

Mostly in input

I love the guns

And while specialists could be better balanced (Angel in particular). I love the dynamic

[jovial jay]

hopefully they can patch out the glitch that make the player count of 2042 4 times lower than BFV

at this point I feel like F2P sounds like a thing EA would definitely do

[next onyx]

Free weekend likely

Free to play? No.

[calm meadow]

The guns are superb, though I’d prefer if there were more. Specialists . . I do enjoy the idea and the narrative, but I’m not so sure if they belong in the standard BF gamemodes. They take away the identity of the player, and oftentimes ruin the immersion, so to speak. I liked the Specialists . . but they could have been implemented better.

[safe verge]

Sup

[next onyx]

A different skin for specialists per side would have been better

[torpid shuttle]

Me..
Groot

[safe verge]

Just want your attention, personally i think the vehicle weapons plus tank health should be buffed like how it was in the beta, i mean maybe a bit less to what it was, but now the minigun and the 30 mm are ass

[junior widget]

What happened to urs? Mine just got denied :(

[next onyx]

I don't think tank health is bad

[torpid shuttle]

I got rejected 3 times ..

[next onyx]

Well, too bad

I'd give it more of a try if c5 drones werent so common

[torpid shuttle]

What if they implement tank mechanics like War thunder?

[junior widget]

Aw, oh well.

[arctic grove]

where’s my refund smh

[next onyx]

Battlefield is too casual

[calm meadow]

For PC players, I’d understand. Console-wise, I’m not so sure.

[next onyx]

I'd be up for adjusting damage angles on tanks

Allow the m5 to 2hk tanks if you hit their engine

PIAT in bf5 was peak, fast reload and high damage but bad range

[calm meadow]

Agreed. Now, if you hit the engine, it does less damage than simply hitting the turret.

[next onyx]

Oh jeez

Turret meta

Not again

In 5 there was a 1.6x multiplier hitting it

Which was a welcome change when they got rid of it

Nvm how fucked Sherman HEAT was. 90 fucking damage on a mediums engine

But yeah

[calm meadow]

When was the multiplier removed?

[next onyx]

Errr

5.2 I think?

[calm meadow]

Ah, I see. I joined around the middle of the game’s lifespan, so I’m glad I didn’t have to deal with that.

[next onyx]

To be fair. It wasn't horrible.

[old ridge]

this was battlefield not that thing called battlefield 2042 that looks like call of duty https://youtu.be/NDDfPxF3EFE

[next onyx]

But the removal of the multiplier made it better

[calm meadow]

Infantry combat was where BFV shined, though. The movement was smooth, the TTK was fair, though some weapons were clearly better than others. On the occasion that I play, I often turn off the HUD and use war-accurate loadouts, depending on the side I’m on. Germany? G-43 and P38. And so on.

[next onyx]

I just love going in with my fg42 no matter what

That gun was fun

It's the gun that left such an impression on me when I was at least 4 years old and I've loved it since.

Sometimes I'll change the announcer language

And God the russian female screams fucking pierce your ears

[calm meadow]

Though I rarely used it, the FG42 was definitely enjoyable to use. My only problem is the smaller magazine capacity.

Regarding Russians. It’s a shame that BFV didn’t expand to the Eastern Front as well. I was curious to see how Dice would handle their side.

[next onyx]

Ye

20 round mag is kinda worth it when you can beam people from so far away

Bar worked tremendously well despite the need to reload all the time

Fast mag just go brr

[calm meadow]

Agreed. And I’m glad DICE added in the fire-selector. Not only is it accurate to the real BAR, it made it so much easier to use.

[next onyx]

Slow auto definitely assisted in pushing the bars range and extra 10 15 metres

Fast auto is actually kinda controllable

It kicks a lot yeah but since it's mostly vertical, if you crouch shoot you can pick people off.

[arctic grove]

2042 is ass

[calm meadow]

I’ve saved the rapid-fire mode for closer ranges. Though, whenever I do use an LMG/MMG, I always have a tendency to use the AA optics. They made target acquisition so much easier.

[next onyx]

Aa sights on the bar is a must have

Irons are bad

Scope isn't suited for it

[calm meadow]

Agreed. AA optics for the MG34-42 worked wonders.

I hate to do this, but I unfortunately have to go now. It’s quite late. It was great, talking with you all. Goodnight.

[next onyx]

Take care man

Hope you the best.

[dire bluff]

How many mines to blow up a tank on 2042?

DICE better get moving to fix BF 2042 or you're gonna get what you deserve

[tame cobalt]

Ya might as well play something else till then

[thick shadow]

So did they really build from the base of a battle royale or is that just a rumor?

[tame cobalt]

The project started as a BR and got rebooted to be a normal BF game mid-development, according to a reliable leaker

[reef kestrel]

you're not T1, argument invalid

Not necessarily. But the way they handled it could've been better obviously

Take this 👑 @lucid goblet

[thick shadow]

I totally agree, still sad how they didn't take notes of what people liked about previous games, so just went on and made new things instead

[arctic grove]

They thought they knew better. Lol

[thick shadow]

I mean they were ahead of schedule LMAO

[next onyx]

[tame cobalt]

• mismanagement
• covid
• project rebooted mid development
• a game engine that is very hard to work with, especially for new employees
• EA enforcing a premature deadline

[thick shadow]

Combining bf4 with bf1's atmosphere, bfv's gunplay and you'll have a banger game

[surreal crystal]

Pretty much yeah

[reef kestrel]

investor being delusional

[arctic grove]

•Developers being hacks

[dusky blade]

Tbh BFV’s gunplay was weird

[next onyx]

Bf5's gunplay was certainly my favourite despite the massive flaw of random recoil.

[thick shadow]

I think the deadline EA forced on is the main issue tbh

[tame cobalt]

The developers are very competent

[dusky blade]

What does the devs being hacks have anything to do with the design choices

[arctic grove]

Gonna disagree with that.

[next onyx]

The devs certainly are competent but the direction they were directed to wasn't the most optimal obviously.

[thick shadow]

It really was weird but for some reason it felt right idk why

[next onyx]

Bf5 was pretty much very little spread with an emphasis on your control.

[surreal crystal]

Any ultimate edition enjoyers ??

[tender folio]

dev are competent but they didn't get enough time. you know, even skilled people need enough time to make something

[arctic grove]

Nope. Full of regret.

[surreal crystal]

[tame cobalt]

No

[white geyser]

Ultimate edition? fuck no, a waste of money they screw up the game.

[surreal crystal]

[digital vortex]

UE here and put a refund request in to Sony 2 months and nothing regarding Year 1 and game still broke im done with this game

[glad river]

It happen again, me and my vehicle go underground and I swim in the sea, and I have to wait another 90s for another vehicle, I hope they cancel the vehicles cold down time

[tame cobalt]

And good management

[next onyx]

I wouldn't mind the other issues if the maps weren't a slog, That's all i'll say.

[tender folio]

this as well.

[arctic grove]

You pay for a year's worth of content then hear rumors of "free to play"

[next onyx]

I can forgive other shortcomings.

[arctic grove]

@white geyser but you get the soundtrack and art book

[white geyser]

Pass

[surreal crystal]

That pains in the heart

[arctic grove]

My credit card too

[tame cobalt]

Daddy Zampella finna sort out the management issues, and hopefully force them to ditch frostbite for unreal 5

[arctic grove]

You bought the game on credit?

[tame cobalt]

Frostbite has given us great things... But it's time to move on

[surreal crystal]

Probably it was Daddy vince’s idea to make it f2p

[thick shadow]

Honestly the game is fun when it comes to the idea of a scenario based on global change but its just weird if you hear those unnecessary specialists say ** "WELL WELL WELL THAT WAS FUN" **

[arctic grove]

Frostbite is awesome and a DICE creation, they're not ditching it for EPIC's benefit.

🤣🤣🤣

@thick shadow the game has some cool moments

[tame cobalt]

It's a good idea. This type of game should be f2p from the start

[thick shadow]

It certainly does but unfortunately it gets washed away at some point, I'm willing to give this game a chance to develop even further to become better

[arctic grove]

This type of game meaning conquest?

[junior widget]

If the game becomes f2p, what happens to us who bought it? Will we get our money back?

[arctic grove]

@thick shadow bf games usually turn out good

[tame cobalt]

A multiplayer-only game with battle passes and in-game store

[arctic grove]

Special skin and a tag that says "I fell for the big ol lie"

@junior widget doubtful people will get paid out if part of the game goes f2p

[junior widget]

[tame cobalt]

You already had enough opportunity to get your money's worth out of it. There's really no case to be made for getting a refund. But i think only a portion of the game will go f2p. My theory is Ripple Effect is making a 2042 battle royale that will be f2p

[edgy oriole]

if it does come down to it. theyll prob give each purchaser an equivalent of their money in in-game currency like how valorant did in their beta.

[arctic grove]

[tame cobalt]

[tame cobalt]

No one asked btw

[arctic grove]

On a good note I've been leaving the house more since the game isn't holding my attention long

[arctic grove]

Agreed. Most likely scenario.

[arctic grove]

No one asked you either.

[tame cobalt]

Lel

[topaz solar]

Honestly they need to fucking fix where u can't spawn in glitch im tired of fucking having to leave and not spawning in

It's bullshit honestly

[arctic grove]

Legacy feature

[topaz solar]

Literally fresh game and I can't fucking spawn ughh

[arctic grove]

No guns at bottom?

[dusky blade]

Remember destiny?

I’ll always reference that

It just wasn’t fair god damn it

[arctic grove]

I can't stop looking at the corsair website. I want to keep buying stuff off it. It's becoming a sickness

[topaz solar]

Yeah

I had no guns at bottom and couldn't spawn in after going in say a vehicle

[old ridge]

If only this game had more realistic gameplay, bf3 style graphics would be amazing. This franchise lost its identity wanting to be like call of duty with that stupid gameplay they thought would work as good as cod mw2019

[arctic grove]

Kinda toxic

[old ridge]

new gameplay mechanics god how much potential a modern war installment has for the battlefield but they wasted it all. I'm going to cry

[slow terrace]

every Battlefield looks beautiful to me

[old ridge]

I still don't get over that the graphics engine from now on will be like 2042

[desert elbow]

The graphics are actually pretty good

[old ridge]

Hell no

[grizzled whale]

they look pretty great to me

[old ridge]

Look like cartoon

[desert elbow]

No lol

[grizzled whale]

what kind of cartoons have you been watching lol

[old ridge]

2042 was a throwback

Compare this cod with bf1 or 5 graphic

[grizzled whale]

not really, but you do you

[desert elbow]

It beats BF1 in most aspects

Same with bf5 but only really the smaller maps

[dusky blade]

I’ll admit the new cod is super ugly

It’s just not good

[slow terrace]

I don't think so, the quality of textures and effects for me are very good, maybe you think that because of the size of the map, which are huge and not very dense

[old ridge]

Ok but DICE copy mw

[dusky blade]

Which was even uglier

[old ridge]

I want play battlefield no cod

[dusky blade]

Same

[desert elbow]

How did it copy MW, with the exception of tac sprint

[dusky blade]

I’m just tired of the movement mainly at this point, screw the visuals, movement sucks

[warped kelp]

Taking hourglass as an example, I can see just flat sands and big boxes that has windows. And in middle of the desert single storey empty white breakable boxes again. Good graphics though.

[slow terrace]

Kaleidoscope is a large piece of concrete with buildings the same color, it's as if everything down to the ground is the same color.

[warped kelp]

Graphics are good though😂

[dusky blade]

Tbf you can’t expect much variety from grass

[warped kelp]

I can play 4k at 10fps with jitters

[slow terrace]

yeah

I think the renewal map is beautiful

[safe verge]

One day tanks will be great again

[old ridge]

I want to play a battlefield game as the battlefield was always a war game with epic destruction and realistic mobility.

I don't want a game with that mobility and visually bad graphics, the run and reload animations suck, they look like ps3. in battlefield 5 the running animation changed depending on the terrain and also made you dirty. I also don't want a game where the 2 armies are the same killing their twins

[desert elbow]

The animations in BF5 were just taken from battlefront 2 lol

Also your gun can get dirty in 2042, not to mention the animations are pretty good

[old ridge]

I want to hear war cries not stupid phrases at the end of the game.

[desert elbow]

Which battlefield had war cries at the end of the game

[old ridge]

Play battlefield 1

[desert elbow]

Lol there weren’t war cries at the end of the game in bf1

Not to mention war cries wouldn’t make much sense in a modern setting, but true I would’ve liked to see them

[slow terrace]

I would be happy if the ridiculous phrases were removed at the end of the game

[arctic grove]

Sometimes it's okay to give birth on the battlefield

[desert elbow]

That’s fair

[old ridge]

Compare that with bf3 phrase

[dusky blade]

It also did have whistles and more yelling at the beginning of matches

Ah crap chat didn’t scroll

Reply to war cries topic

[desert elbow]

It was amazing, would’ve been amazing if it stayed

[safe verge]

The best thing that got my blood pumping in bf1 was playing breakthrough with a good team. Everyone charging in and squad leaders blowing their whistle's the entire way

Nothing but screams, bombs, and agony

[arctic grove]

The first time I played the beta. I was in a building and exited. Right when I exited there was an enemy player standing there. We looked at each other for a second. I heard a scream and a teammate was running towards him and bayonet his ass. The funniest thing ever

Bf1?

Yeah I gave it a shot for a second

[old ridge]

the executions are sad in the third person the animations are a joke the animations are so bad that even I do it, god I'm sorry for this franchise wants to be like mw2019 and try to sell like mw2019 but it doesn't work. perhaps DICE does not know that Mw2019 has two types of executions standing and lying down

https://youtube.com/shorts/k65b6KDmnG4?feature=share

This sooo sadddddddddd f***

[desert elbow]

I really don’t know why they changed to third person animations tbh

The bf4 knife combat would’ve been fine, but you have to admit the actual gameplay is nothing like mw2019

With the exception of the movement I’d say

[arctic grove]

Probably changed it to sell more micro transactions

[old ridge]

Now look this https://youtu.be/VD2W-trdAd8

[desert elbow]

True but I totally would’ve been more likely to purchase a different first person execution, but that’s just me

[arctic grove]

I tried I have a hard time watching cod game play

[lilac plinth]

[karmic void]

Petition to rename EA (Electronic Arts) to ED (Electronic Disaster)

[lilac plinth]

[scenic tartan]

Flying the condor is fun, it's easier than the helis

[old ridge]

first person executions was perfect

[scenic tartan]

The condor is one of the best new additions even if it needs some balancing

[next onyx]

Ehhh what's the issue with the Condor?

[arctic grove]

I like the addition of body armor

[scenic tartan]

Idk some people think it's too strong idk

I've heard people complain but people complain about everything

[next onyx]

Armour is a bad mechanic, Especially with the way it has been implemented

Yeah Condor doesn't need to be rebalanced

[arctic grove]

I think it's amazing

[scenic tartan]

I just don't want some redditor replying "WHAT ABOUT THIS ISSUE" cause I just like flying it

[next onyx]

Yeah true Bug. I like flying it cause it's cool and bulky.

[grizzled whale]

why do you think this game wants to be like MW2019, just because they have melee executions?

[arctic grove]

People forget to put it in or give it to friends; not my problem 🙃

[next onyx]

It's got a leg up against the hind but I think against each other they're balanced

[scenic tartan]

They both are probably too strong against jets

I've seen jets get insta blasted trying to make an attack run on them

[arctic grove]

Jets are kinda Op

[next onyx]

Yeah no people simply come in on a bad angle on condors

If you just come vertically you can prevent getting hit

[arctic grove]

Feel this is the first bf game I'm not feeling the jets

[next onyx]

or minimise the damage

Jets in this game are wonky

There's some sort of delay with the movement

[arctic grove]

Sad because I love flying

[scenic tartan]

I don't know how to fly well

[next onyx]

I do too love to fly.

It's practically just a case of aware ness and making the right manoeuvres

[scenic tartan]

I like putting up trophy system and blocking heli rockets

https://www.reddit.com/r/battlefield2042/comments/saschu/a_simple_comparison/

[safe verge]

@next onyx broski, wish my tanks were as good as beta

[scenic tartan]

Yeah tanks need big buffs

[safe verge]

The golden days of the tin cans, back then they were steel beams

[next onyx]

They just need a more reliable kill splash

[arctic grove]

They need a buff against the m5 rockets, and 3 mines instead of 2

[grizzled whale]

no they dont lol

[scenic tartan]

Tanks are basically irrelevant

[next onyx]

I think the m5 could definitely use a buff and tanks with a readjustment with armour

[arctic grove]

When you have a tank fill of friends they can be op

[grizzled whale]

the m5 needs a massive nerf, its way too strong when everyone can run it

[arctic grove]

How much damage does the m5 do to the side of a tank, back of a tank etc

[next onyx]

Against Air vehicles it's weak

[safe verge]

Nothing stops c5 drones

[next onyx]

The travel time and reload speed do not help

[scenic tartan]

The freaking jeep can take out a tank quick with the 50mm

[next onyx]

20 damage from the front isn't the worst

[arctic grove]

The reload speed is slow

[grizzled whale]

its gonna get patched, that will stop it

[safe verge]

They nerfed the auto repair, 30 and 40mm, minigun

[scenic tartan]

Didn't tanks have trophy system or something in bf4

[arctic grove]

My friends won't even get in my tank if I have the mini gun

[safe verge]

Meanwhile jets are like Gods in the sky

[arctic grove]

And the tow missile is wonky

[scenic tartan]

I feel like tanks need something to defend against hind/condor spam from above

[safe verge]

Thermal smoke doesn't do jack shit

[scenic tartan]

Hind can eat a tank like ice cream

[arctic grove]

Yeah jets can out run the aa missile after lock on and no flares

Dice : I'm in danger.

Me : wake up.

[white solstice]

SOFLAM. M5 one hits most choppers once locked, it’s completely broken if a squad actually works together.

[dusky blade]

Slide is so typical, it’s now a downfall of games

[scenic tartan]

Soflam was always in bf4 what's the difference wasn't it one hit then too

I don't remember

[next onyx]

SOFLAM is a completely different story but yeah it's kinda powerful that way

Dumb firing is ineffective since the rockets fly slowly

[reef kestrel]

Warface.

[white solstice]

My point is the M5 is only weak when nobody works together. If they buffed it it would be even more insane once people figure out the people marked in bright green on your HUD are who you’re meant to work together with. I’m not familiar with the SOFLAM in BF4.

[white solstice]

I think it’s on purpose, to encourage someone to run a SOFLAM

[scenic tartan]

2042 needs another launcher that's like the MBT LAW and let it lock soflam

[arctic grove]

I tend to have good luck killing tanks with the m5

[next onyx]

It's either one extreme in this

[arctic grove]

And it's fun sniping with it across the map

[next onyx]

A soft lock would be alright purely for annoying vehicles

[scenic tartan]

I think Mbt law was weaker but it could lock soflam and had a manual targeting that you could direct the missle

2042 probably needs something like that for better soflam balance where it doesn't one shot helis with lock

[next onyx]

the issue is that helicopters can easily sit outside of the lock on range of soflams and stingers

[white solstice]

Yeah I hate when they do that

[next onyx]

Their guns are still effective from so long out they really need to nerf the shit out of the guns that far away

[reef kestrel]

How to encourage someone to use SOFLAM.

DICE : LET ADD MORE GLINT .
Players :

[undone bone]

[arctic grove]

The stinger is 2042 has a massive range

[next onyx]

I don't think it does

I think it has a 250 M range

[arctic grove]

It has more range than the aa tank

[next onyx]

Which i guess is alright

[white solstice]

Facts.

[slow terrace]

I've already destroyed 27 vehicles in a match doing this

You can lock on targets across the orbital map

[next onyx]

guess i'm used to stationary AA guns hitting me out from 750 M away

[grizzled whale]

no you cant, it still has a 250m range

[next onyx]

SO really 250 M is nothing

[white solstice]

Yeah you can lock down an entire map when you use it right

[next onyx]

if we had some sort of launcher that got helicopters to go away but still able to harass them then that'd be fine

[white solstice]

They usually run away if you start hacking them with Rao

[next onyx]

Bring back the Bofors, That thing is still being used in the 2020's.

[arctic grove]

I'm not trusting this 250m after so many experiences getting knocked from across the map

[ashen wadi]

Kinda wish base spawns had some kinda AA protection. Too often I spawn something and immediately get locked by a helicopter just parked behind the base.

[next onyx]

They can fire and the rocket will follow you from beyond the rang

[scenic tartan]

The fxaa is so glitchy with lock and tracking

[next onyx]

Nvm the rats abusing jets and getting a free multikill at the start of a breakthrough game

That shit is dumb

I don't want to be negative but these little things are annoying.

[scenic tartan]

Yeah that's a weird oversight

But ultimately those players just spawn in closer afterward and it doesn't mean much

[slow terrace]

[scenic tartan]

Like it sucks that jets can do that but it doesn't even change the match outcome much... Even a dozen tickets doesn't change the match too much

[next onyx]

It may not change the outcome but it is very frustrating getting killed by something you couldn't even counter

Let alone do something about

[arctic grove]

Maybe they could not force spawn people in

[next onyx]

You'd think that wouldn't be done after initial complaints from 5

[arctic grove]

And delay the jet spawn

[scenic tartan]

Just insta kill jets that approach spawn in first 2 minutes of game

[ashen wadi]

Wouldn't that give an advantage to US with the Condor's being able to reach stuff faster?

[foggy halo]

It can change, I’ve noticed that too

[scenic tartan]

Well it would just be the area infantry spawn in it wouldn't be very much area

[arctic grove]

@foggy halo definitely seems to have more range than the aa tank

[scenic tartan]

If a condor sits there it won't accomplish anything

[reef kestrel]

y'all bad just git gut. /s

[ashen wadi]

Was more talking about delaying the Jet spawn

[reef kestrel]

Game is fine, y'all just toxic. /s

[arctic grove]

The MAV and wildcat 60mm flak is really good at killing jets and choppers

[scenic tartan]

Ok I just think you need to make the infantry spawn a no go zone for. Beginning of Match

It's not realistic but it makes sense to do

[arctic grove]

And there is no lock on notice so the pilot doesn't realize how Op it is till they're almost down

[foggy halo]

Daily reminder: c5 on drones need to get fixed and we need operation metro in 2042

[scenic tartan]

The bolte rockets are so dumb and fun

The range on bolte rockets is stupid lol

[arctic grove]

They keep remaking metro, I'd like to finally see a remake of operation locker

[ashen wadi]

Was surprised to learn Irish's sentinel actually shoots those down reliably.

[next onyx]

5 second Vehicle spawn delay & no forced spawns

Done

[scenic tartan]

Irish is my favorite lately love the shootdown sentinel

[ashen wadi]

I kinda imagine a Metro being a Dozer stomping ground

[scenic tartan]

In breakthrough you can stop so much explosive spam

[foggy halo]

It’s really easy to destroy tanks with the bolted mines

[clever rune]

I just want to Say Waygyanba this game is one of the best in 2022 and I appreciate you banning/suspending people who are negative, we don't need that stuff in here

I appreciate you tailoring the channel to fit a positive experience for us 5000 who still play

[scenic tartan]

They don't ban/suspend people who are negative they do that to trolls bye

[clever rune]

they definitely suspend people for even mentioning the word lawsuit

[slow terrace]

I don't know how to use TOW

[scenic tartan]

Salty alt 🤣

[arctic grove]

@slow terrace you guide it after firing it

[clever rune]

there's literally threads on the reddit about them going hyper-controlling here, but again I'm fine because I'd rather hear everyone talk positive about this amazing game

[foggy halo]

I agree. I just wanted to say that I want an inf map as part of portal and bf4 isn’t part of it

[scenic tartan]

https://c.tenor.com/OOELcA9vV6oAAAAM/umadbro-mocking.gif

[clever rune]

besides discord bans/suspensions are perma, you can't get around them so they're actively handling the trolls well

[slow terrace]

in any direction?

[arctic grove]

@foggy halo I'd be down with metro too.. I'm always a fan of cqc maps

@slow terrace yes keep your ads on and just drive the missile.

[scenic tartan]

Basically the rocket travels away from you at a steady speed but turns in the direction your cursor is pointing

[slow terrace]

thanks guys

[arctic grove]

Angel does it again

[scenic tartan]

The trick with tow missle is figuring how how far away the target is to hit it

[cursive hinge]

Hi guys

[clever rune]

I had a battlefield moment with my friends today when the recon squad we were playing went invisible inside their invisible bolte, it was so intense

[cursive hinge]

I haven't play bf2042 for one week lol

[clever rune]

so you haven't seen the invisible dudes?

you should log in, it's hilarious; people are legit invisible more than 20% of the time

[vivid nacelle]

They were invisible

[scenic tartan]

Look at this totally natural conversation between two totally different people

[foggy halo]

And where the missile is

[clever rune]

I'm just saying this game is probably going to go down as one of the top FPSes of 2022

[slow terrace]

ok

[clever rune]

that investor call will surely showcase how little this drama affected the game's overall course

[arctic grove]

You know as sarcastic as that sounds it is possible 🙃

[scenic tartan]

🤖

Thanks for the laughs salty bro on an alt account

[arctic grove]

Damn reddit is trashing the art book and soundtrack

[karmic void]

Where do screenshots belong

This chat is more dead than ever

[arctic grove]

It's dead but helps my time at work go faster

[cursive hinge]

I didn't chat here since i stopped playing XD

[arctic grove]

Remake bazaar from bf3

How that hasn't been remade at some point is against me, espically with how dragon valley,while still a good map got in over it in bf4

[dusky blade]

Art book? Why? It’s good

[quick apex]

I totally forgot about that.

[arctic grove]

@dusky blade hot post about not receiving the art book and soundtrack. People not sure where to find it. And honestly I paid for it too and have no idea where to find it

[dusky blade]

In fact, the art is really really good, they’re talented af

[quick apex]

[arctic grove]

The soundtrack,well that's more debetable but the 2042 theme is pretty bad

I wouldn't mind the art book honestly 😐

Apparently the pre order soundtrack also dosent include the full ost/full songs but I can't confirm that

Where do you find these things.

[tame cobalt]

ost did a phenomenal job at what it tried to do

Discarded with its end of round music... So beautiful

[arctic grove]

I've actually not gotten a single discarded match in my time playing,then again most of my playtime is in the 1942 v 2042 mode

[earnest verge]

i just hope some 1 on that call pulls in a giant projector and plays that "Battlefield 2042 downgrades" video, and get to ask "what the fuck happend guys?"

[quick apex]

I always mute the music in my games. Need to soundwhore.

[arctic grove]

Even if it is very poorly balanced considering the 2042 side wins most of the time unless it's el Alamein but I hate that map anyway

I guess they never sent out the art book

[tame cobalt]

it's funny how el alamein has all the stuff people complain about in 2042 maps yet it's considered a classic...

[arctic grove]

Battle of the bulge is alright,very vechile spammy but the objectives themselves are at a good amount of distance

El Alamein was considered a classic because it was one of the few 1942 maps to have a bomber on it,which I think it dosent even have that anymore in portal

[earnest verge]

el alamein was always a shit map

[arctic grove]

They could have done Tobruk which is a much better desert map or just did Normandy/operation market garden

[tame cobalt]

[earnest verge]

agreed

[dusky blade]

Oi what are you on

I will fight for El Alamein til I die

[arctic grove]

1942 has alot of good maps to pick up (coral sea cough cough) but they went with el Alamein because let's be honest it was easy to remake

[earnest verge]

never liked it, no 1 in my community never liked it either

[dusky blade]

I mean, not every map needs to follow traditional map design philosophies, some can just be unique

[desert elbow]

El Alamein was a great a great choice tbh

[arctic grove]

I wouldn't have even minded og Iwo Jima/wake Island considering they have the assets for the Japanese faction already in bf5,and the 1942 stuff is already all just bf5 model rips

[dusky blade]

El Alamein is a tanks mans game, rally the tanks, capture points, and fight incoming bombers with flaks

It’s a unique type of play

[next onyx]

Al Alamein outside of TDM / FFA is pain

[earnest verge]

Al alamein was only fun with the bf2 mod where u had the ac-130 imo

[arctic grove]

If they do add more 1942/bad company 2/battlefield 3 maps down the road id like for them to be the dlcs maps

Im happy I found the art book

Especially road to Rome and bad company 2 Vietnam

Today I'm proud

[reef kestrel]

Battlefield will win the game award in the community branch

best supporting community*

[dusky blade]

Tbh 1942 has the best map variety of most battlefield games

[arctic grove]

But in regards to missing content id rather they add all the missing bf3/bad company 2 guns back into portal considering both share alot of weapons

[earnest verge]

they get more hate than they deserve from the community for sure, but its not like they are deserving support for the total mess 2042 really is either

[arctic grove]

Holy shit the concept art for Kaleidoscope looks dope

[dusky blade]

All the art looks amazing, they’re talented af

[next onyx]

Grand Bazaar is a please

[reef kestrel]

We are supporting DICE right?

[next onyx]

Gimme an infantry grinder map

With full XP

[dusky blade]

No

[arctic grove]

No

[next onyx]

Easy 50K per match

[reef kestrel]

Hate is still supporting.

[arctic grove]

I'd say metro as a joke but there gonna add fort de vaux probably anyway

Jesus concept paik looks great

[next onyx]

What's so bad about an infantry grinder map lol

[dusky blade]

It’s hateful love

[reef kestrel]

better than current paik

[earnest verge]

i always buy 2x of whatever prem edition there is, i do my part. but the game is a downgrade and not a small one either

[arctic grove]

Holy cow my boy angel looks good in the concept art. Why did they go this other direction

[next onyx]

I still vividly remember being scared shitless hearing a BTR fire.

[reef kestrel]

ask the 3d modeler.

[next onyx]

for the first time.

[dusky blade]

@arctic grove the discarded concept is AMAZING. There’s a tsunami and storm and the boat gets stuck on the coast, there’s tons of cover too

[next onyx]

DOM DOM DOM DOM

[arctic grove]

Considering bf1 is pretty likely to be the next game added,bur then again I don't know what maps they would pick or how the Calvary/elites will work

[reef kestrel]

Whoever make Paik should be ashamed.

[dusky blade]

Come on now, it’s still good

[earnest verge]

Proud* paik is awesome ❤️

[dusky blade]

I’ll stand up for the devs in that the work they did was good, just a few groups and executives butchered it

[arctic grove]

Calvary should just be added to the main game anyway if there gonna add it to a bf1 portal,besides the Calvary was pretty fun in bf1

[reef kestrel]

[next onyx]

Today, Today I feel proud.

[amber heath]

No

[earnest verge]

i mean yeah i do wish they looked like that, boris im alright with as is, but the paik in that post is miles better for sure. But you and i cant hate on paik, the og catgirl, its illegal

[amber heath]

Don't.

[earnest verge]

[reef kestrel]

We must shame the developer by making our own Paik.

[next onyx]

I am Not overconfident, I'm just better than everyone else.

[arctic grove]

I'm playing the soundtrack in the office for my coworker 😎

[earnest verge]

Yes, but i dont bealive we have the power, if they not already ashamed there is no hope for cat kingdom

[next onyx]

You really like that picture

[arctic grove]

They went out there way to give McKay the worst lines didn't they

[next onyx]

Eh, They're not the worst.

[reef kestrel]

We must spread the Best Paik

[lucid goblet]

some of the concept art is awesome , i mean this looks a lot better (imo) than the current Bolte

[next onyx]

I usually tune out at the end anyways

Wow

[arctic grove]

Angel has some truely awful end of round ones to

[next onyx]

That kinda reminds me of something to be honest

Actually

It looks like the staghound carpo

[earnest verge]

100% coming in one of the seasons, but i agree, get rid of bolt, and the hovercraft alltogether please dice

[arctic grove]

And because angel is so good your normally gonna see one at the end of round

[warped kelp]

Casper has the best voicelines, cringy but far better than other.

[lucid goblet]

indeed

[reef kestrel]

In realistic point.

IRL this vehicle will get rekt in few second.

50cal piercing the window

[arctic grove]

I got the concept art pdf. Going to make a few posters from the stuff I like

[reef kestrel]

Yeah it's look cool.

[lucid goblet]

how it should be, it's classed as a "light armoured vehicle"

[arctic grove]

Put my boy angel on a t-shirt maybe

I kinda like how it's basically just a jeep with a turret on top

[dusky blade]

God damn it the concept art is amazing

[reef kestrel]

but BTR.

[arctic grove]

Reminds me of the bf1 armoured cars but less oddly shaped

Kaleidoscope concept looks like another world

[next onyx]

They should just heavily limit the vehicles at a time. 1 bolte max with 3 LTV's or Hovercrafts. Easy.

[arctic grove]

The plants hanging off the building, shadows, etc

[lucid goblet]

also some Angel concepts, i like these.

[reef kestrel]

My old OG BT

[next onyx]

You stole that off me!

[warped kelp]

Need a boys at rifle or panzerboooooosh for the amount the vehicles game has

[next onyx]

i know that snippet!

Reeeeee!

[arctic grove]

The Bolte should be listed under a tank,or they go back to the bf4 system where limited vechiles spawned on each objective

[next onyx]

I love the rightmost one the most

But the left one I can see running

[reef kestrel]

Some concept showed they are going for the apex style design.

[arctic grove]

What gun is he holding

[reef kestrel]

Look like a M4

[next onyx]

Looks to be an MCX

[lucid goblet]

yeah, the right one for me fits the theme perfectly

[reef kestrel]

There is many variant so

[next onyx]

If i were to buy cosmetics, The rightmost one would be a definite buy.

[arctic grove]

I don't mind buying cosmetics but I want to see a war face at least

They already have the sig 6.5 assualt rifle prototype as the m5a3 in game,but not its lmg counterpart

[reef kestrel]

Someone can post generic soldier concept art plz

[lucid goblet]

if you want to see the concept stuff and you bought the bundle, you can get them here https://www.ea.com/en-gb/games/battlefield/battlefield-2042/media/ultimate-edition-benefits (incase people still didn't know)

[dusky blade]

It’s on YouTube anyway

[next onyx]

Oh there's an LMG version of the MCX?

Like how the AWS is an IAR variant of the M4 series?

[arctic grove]

Yea,Sig commissioned it to go along with the mcx variant in the us army trials

Why they had one but not the other in game is against me, espically because the lcmg is a knights armourment thing I forget the name of

[next onyx]

LWAMG

[arctic grove]

Is there word on any future weapons

[next onyx]

Light weight automatic machine gun

[arctic grove]

I'd place a bet on a m1911 l85a3 and f2000 being added with season 1

[next onyx]

Oh not Automatic, It's assault.

[reef kestrel]

Aye, if someone still have the pdf please share it in dm.

[arctic grove]

Aswell as the crossbow and Barret rifle found in the beta files with the mgl to

[lucid goblet]

this sundance skin though 👌

[next onyx]

We need the LSAT

[arctic grove]

I hope they add a bow

[reef kestrel]

specialist with bow it's already planned btw

[next onyx]

Or a proper Scar HAMR

[arctic grove]

Oh nice

[reef kestrel]

I'm a insider and I've seen some concept

[warped kelp]

Hzd crossover

[arctic grove]

Id just like any new lmg,so a lmg version or the aug/l85 would be pretty cool or as you said a LSAT,or a m60a5 and m240b

Hell,just port all bf3 portal guns to the main game at that point

[next onyx]

An AR AUG or a AUG HBAR would be nice

Though i'd kill to see a Galil ARM

[earnest verge]

how can the concepts be so cool compared to what they actually made for the game T_T

[next onyx]

It's most likely planned

Or experimented with

[arctic grove]

I'd like for them to port the portal guns to the main game then add from there atleast

As alor of the portal guns in bf3/bc2 overlap with what I'd want later on

[earnest verge]

hell yeah bring the galol, one of my fav weapons

[next onyx]

Galol

lol

https://static.tweaktown.com/news/6/2/62042_01_battlefield-concept-art-looks-absolutely-amazing_full.jpg

[arctic grove]

is this an african warlord who just learned about modern military technology

[next onyx]

I'm glad this bit of concept art got brought in

[arctic grove]

But yea,a galil would be pretty cool tho I know they'd just add the ace 21 If they did

[next onyx]

The Galil AR i've kinda loved since black ops 1 but you don't see it much

[karmic void]

how do you get access to sharing screen shits

[next onyx]

We get the ARM variant back in hardline

[arctic grove]

If they add the ace 21 may aswell bring back a certain ak variant

[earnest verge]

why u think its one of my favs

[slow crown]

Quick question does anyone know whether or not the Casper drone attached with C4 to blow up tanks still works in 2042??

[next onyx]

haha

[karmic void]

probably

[arctic grove]

lmao

[warped kelp]

If they would have just copied skins from warzone, even for guns I would have loved those

[arctic grove]

this deadass looks like a viking getting isekai'd into ww2 era

[next onyx]

That man is part of the filthy thirteen

A very real paratrooper unit

[lucid goblet]

you need the regular role or be a server booster, or if they're cinematic style ones you should be able to post in #screenshots-and-clips

[arctic grove]

looks like i havent explored every corner of ww2

[arctic grove]

I've done it in the newest update so I believe it should still be possible to do that

[karmic void]

is "Ign 10/10" a cinematic

[next onyx]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filthy_Thirteen

Give it a read

It's genuinely interesting

[karmic void]

how can one obtain a regular role

[next onyx]

!!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.

[slow crown]

@arctic grove thank you!!

[karmic void]

well, I'm pretty active :D

[arctic grove]

I don't see why the drone strat is a issue to dice considering how weak the recoiless m5 is against land vechiles and the drone means that you can pretty easily be shot when using it

[lucid goblet]

https://tenor.com/view/smh-kanyewest-gif-4544077

[next onyx]

They just need to increase the velocity and shorten the m5's reload speed

[earnest verge]

its universaly hated, they removed it pretty much instantly back in the days

[warped kelp]

U are talking abt guns but not pkp and k30

[arctic grove]

I'm not connecting m5 being weak verse land loving vehicles. M5 destories tanks and keeps them at a distance

[next onyx]

I'd rather be hit by a UCAV because i wouldn't lose all my health in a instant moment

[sudden peak]

People are still doing it. I had it last night

[arctic grove]

Tank drivers hang back often or Retreat when getting hit with the M5

The m5 definitely needs a shorter reload speed and velocity boost considering I need to lead my target with it when there 30m away

[next onyx]

It's normal to retreat getting hit by a SMAW or RPG

[slow crown]

@arctic grove completely agree this Battlefield 2042 is so vehicle focused can not move anywhere lol

[next onyx]

The prime issue are the maps

[arctic grove]

How many m5 rockets to kill a tank is a good number

[next onyx]

There's a lot of useless space so fights are sparse

I'm not even sure

[arctic grove]

That's fair

Tanks really have no where to go but back to base

I think it's 3-4 rockets to take down a tank,but because there's no weak spot system anymore I don't know

[earnest verge]

ofc they are, what suprise me is that they put it in this game to begin with cause there is already history with this tactic

[arctic grove]

i reinstalled bf4 after having uninstalled it for space reasons

And when every person has an m5 or fast access to loadouts I'm not sure the m5 needs a any buff

[sudden peak]

I kinda like it tho lol. It's what the wanted this game to be like

[arctic grove]

there is only so much space for games on my 970 evo

The thing is most people don't use the m5 in my experience,or maybe it's the people I play with

Do you use vehicles often

I will say tho,using a soflam then getting a m5 to lock onto a aircraft is satisfying as hell

[arctic grove]

Semi regularly,I mainly play infantry tho because I just prefer that playstyle

[next onyx]

C5 and M5 are comfy gadgets

I just wish they gave us a specialist that has a launcher for their main gadget so we can run Bf5 assault / Bf4 Engineer again.

[arctic grove]

Angel is one of the,blatently just best ops so you can easily run him with the launcher to resupply it

[next onyx]

Angel in general is really badly balanced because of armour

[arctic grove]

I love Armour 😍

[next onyx]

Why pick Falck when you can easily heal yourself with a med box and add another 20 bits of health on top

[arctic grove]

Oh she adds 20+ more health?

[next onyx]

I wouldn't mind armour if it didn't block headshots.

[arctic grove]

It's also like why pick the armour gadget when angel exists

[low timber]

Try out the 40mm AP Way, love that thing.

[next onyx]

I have been using it!

You get good benchmarks

[low timber]

But have you killed helicopters with it?

[next onyx]

NOPE

[arctic grove]

I've been using it on the m5a just unlocked the incendiary 40mm also

[next onyx]

But I have annoyed and osprey massively

I almsot killed it but it went into cruise mode and flew off :(

[low timber]

I have a clip of killing a nightbird with it

[next onyx]

Oh jeez

Bully the heli mains

[low timber]

I’ll dm it if you want

[next onyx]

Yeah sure

[arctic grove]

Bully the nightbirds with a soflam+rocket

[next onyx]

Show me

[thorn panther]

i'm curious what's everyone averaging on aow conquest?

[arctic grove]

A pretty good strategy to fuck with helis is to throw one of Sundances anti vechile grenades at it then fire a stinger at it afterwards

[karmic void]

how did this game get such a high rating from Game reviewers?

[next onyx]

Averaging on what, Kills or score?

I usually 40 to 50 kills

[thorn panther]

k/d?

[low timber]

What I’ve tested the 40mm AP does 66 dmg to the nightbird.

[next onyx]

OH YES

[karmic void]

"Impressively huge" - IGN

[next onyx]

Oh yeah marse

i gotta dm you something too

[thorn panther]

i'm at 25-35 kills but i like to capture flags. Do you play the flags too?

[next onyx]

Yes.

That's how you get kills.

[arctic grove]

they meant ea's wallets

[hushed topaz]

Theyre paid reviews

Those reviews are meaningless

[arctic grove]

look at the promotional material quoting all the obviously paid reviews giving this game 9/10 lmao

one of the review outlets quoted is literally called "attack of the fanboys"

[hushed topaz]

Was there ever a 10/10 game

[thorn panther]

same, starting to get a few 40s here and there. I think positioning is key in this battlefield.

[arctic grove]

We live in an age where most reviews are paid

Days of false advertisement, publishing unfinished games and fake reviews must disappear

[arctic grove]

i mean metacritic only has a 99/100

[thorn panther]

This battle royale trend needs to disappear.

[arctic grove]

i think gta 5 is the highest rated game of the last 2 generations

I think twitch has harmed gaming

Battle royale works for some guys but everyone has tried it and only a few truly succeeded. I doubt the success will apply for battlefield

[hushed topaz]

Makes sense gta v was really cool, but now its just a drag to play it

[arctic grove]

gta 5 gets boring if you dont play online

[hardy leaf]

if they added a fine campaign to 2042 then i think hate would be a less

[arctic grove]

I’m on gta online rn lol

like i finished the story and stuff but now i dont know what to do lol

[thorn panther]

I used to game with friends now i run solo because all they play is warzone. I wouldn't mind but it's generally awful. I've only enjoyed one BR and that was Pubg

[arctic grove]

i installed some mods to spice things up

[arctic grove]

Eh, what people want is a complete removal of the specialist system, movement overhaul, 10+ maps and 30+ guns honestly

[arctic grove]

so like every previous battlefield? makes sense

[hardy leaf]

yes but thats not gonna happen, m being realistic

[arctic grove]

MW19s movement gives me tumors, everyone is a sweat, war zones not for me

you are right, it wont happen

There’s still a chance to get what most people want if the player count dwindles too much for DICE

[thorn panther]

I'm hoping for b1 or b5 to make it to portal 🤞

[hardy leaf]

theyre on aderall plus have years of cod experience

[hushed topaz]

Maps and guns are coming, specialists are never getting removed we all know that and movement isnt that bad tbh i like the double sprint

[hardy leaf]

i think it has dwindled too much for a 2 month old game

[arctic grove]

the ony good thing about mw is movement and gunplay

[daring pawn]

Same

[arctic grove]

the netcode is pretty good too

[arctic grove]

A jump/slide cooldown type of thing, or more like BFVs movement is what I would’ve liked to see

[summer tree]

https://youtu.be/PkeKSlqgFk0

[hushed topaz]

Imagine first season they only release 2 guns and one map lmfao 🤣 🤣 🤣

[arctic grove]

and only one specialist

[daring pawn]

I hated the gun play. Yes the guns felt good but the shotguns were op and 725 could sometimes snipe you

[thorn panther]

Absolutely i'm on xbox and there's no fov and i generally do not know how people can play because my fov is literally 70% just my gun.

[daring pawn]

The campaign for mw19 was sick tho

[hushed topaz]

Imagine 3 months for 1 specialist

[arctic grove]

725 was the meta during the first weeks of the game but other than that the guns felt satisfying too shoot, had weight and felt like actual guns

[hushed topaz]

Agreed 100%

[arctic grove]

also im pretty sure mw19 was the first cod to incorporate an actual recoil system

[thorn panther]

yeah i got all the gamerscore for it. Really enjoyed it

[arctic grove]

with masterable patterns

Bf2042 recoil however is strange

[arctic grove]

the graphics are shockingly realistic

I have to put on 100 pov to be able to hit things

like 2042 looks like a joke in comparison

[thorn panther]

not just me then. I find myself sometimes shooting just above the enemies head. It's so annoying.

[arctic grove]

That same exact thing happens to me

Are you on console

yea 2042 recoil is kinda wack its like the game fights me when controlling the recoil

The aim assist is bad on console and fucks with your aiming

im on pc using kbm

[daring pawn]

Okay so that’s not just happening to me

[arctic grove]

bfv recoil felt much more natural

The spread only makes it worst, it’s like I’m shooting from an already spent barrel after 10 shots

[hardy leaf]

well this is really a big downgrade,

[hushed topaz]

Recoil is non existent

[arctic grove]

Maybe you guys are just to used to cod gun play

[stiff spruce]

ive gotten more enjoyment out of the new Pokemon game in 8 hours than 2042 overall

[arctic grove]

Maybe, then again mw19 gunplay was beautiful

[arctic grove]

first time a cod rewarded me for precision and recoil mastery

The only cod game I bought I returned because the gun play felt weird

Which one?

[summer tree]

Did you see the destruction in portal ? 😂 what fucking joke compare to the previous game in the same map and same element

[arctic grove]

I don't know but it felt like startrek guns on a modern looking AR. It felt childish

[stiff spruce]

it was Advanced Warfare

[arctic grove]

probably mw2 or 3

Mw2 2009?

yes

Damn and that’s like the cod communities GOAT game, I love it too lol

[muted plume]

2 more days then the weekly mission will be here

[arctic grove]

The more bf leans towards cod style of play the further I will be from future titles 😐

[arctic grove]

i mean before mw19 all the guns felt like laser beams lmao

[hardy leaf]

yeah the game is a whack, devs are trying to fix it but i dont think they will be able to, and it wont be worth it, its too much of an incompetent mess to fix

[eternal storm]

'kill 20 people with a grenade for a new badge!' yeah great lol

[arctic grove]

20 grenade kills?

[daring pawn]

I might buy the next cod this game is so trash. And depending on the war, I might not buy the next bf

[arctic grove]

the animations and attention to detail is absolute garbage tier

[eternal storm]

...it was a hypothetical comment...it'll be something shit like that. a 'weekly mission' does not equal a complete game

[arctic grove]

legit looks like a f2p chinese battlefield knockoff

Do you think it contends with hardline?

[desert elbow]

The animations are far better in 2042

[arctic grove]

EA you have scammed the players too much now you are getting a slap in the face it is to deserve

[arctic grove]

watch that video

[daring pawn]

It’s partially due to mw19 cause everyone praised how smooth it felt (although it wasn’t realistic) and bf 2042 decided to implicate that into their own game but worse

[arctic grove]

both bf1 and mw19 put 2042 to shame and then some

[desert elbow]

Exactly, they're far better in 2042

[eternal storm]

"Battlefield 2042 sold over 4.2 million copies in its first week"- i dont think they got much of a slap

[dark marsh]

i love shotguns but in this game is useless

[arctic grove]

watch the video

[safe crag]

You blind ?

[daring pawn]

I hate mw19 but sadly you are right

[arctic grove]

Frostbite 3 was pretty solid though

[desert elbow]

I did

[arctic grove]

i partially hate mw19 for the atrocious map design and bad visibility

I’d compare bf2042s movement to v personally

but the game gets the basics damn right

[arctic grove]

you have to be blind

[daring pawn]

Yeah the map designs were what made me hate it the most

[arctic grove]

did you even bother to make an intellectual comparison

[desert elbow]

I'm joking lmao, it's clear BF1/5 had far more detailed animations, but people complained about it left right and center. Although I'm with you, I would've personally preferred BF1 styled animations, however a lot of people clearly wouldn't so you can't outright call it a bad thing

[daring pawn]

They looked good but were bad layout

[arctic grove]

bruh should have put in the /s

you sounded dead serious

[desert elbow]

my bad then

[daring pawn]

Im probably gonna buy the next cod just cause it cant have as bad of a start as this game

[arctic grove]

MW22 should be solid

[daring pawn]

Sure even the most hated cods never died this quickly. Might be a word record

[arctic grove]

ghosts didnt

[river trench]

Im hoping mw22 is gonna be good

[daring pawn]

Didn’t they have 3 years to develop it (well first year was still supporting mw19)

[bronze scroll]

BATTLEFIELD 2042 is awful

[river trench]

If they make the game like trash its gone for ages

[bronze scroll]

EA is stupid, both dice and ea are stupid

[river trench]

What a unique and never seen before opinion

[bronze scroll]

That's facts, it's awful and it will never be fixed

[next onyx]

K

[daring pawn]

Im hoping season 1 brings back a few players but im not confident

[arctic grove]

Could age like fine wine or milk but you can never be certain for anything

I probably won't pre order the next one 😐

But after a month I'll buy it when it goes on sale half off

[river trench]

So when the hell is season 1?

[arctic grove]

March

[river trench]

If the season 1 is trash or so the game will never have some plahers back

[desert elbow]

Eh it's not impossible

[arctic grove]

Roadmap and season 1 will fetch some guys back if it’s satisfactory

[sullen badge]

I see this chat is still toxic as usual

@worthy inlet welcome back to modship, gratz

anywho, have a good aus day tomorrow you two @next onyx

[arctic lion]

I mean I'm kinda pissed what I got for buying the gold edition of bf42, at least hoping that they can fix this up in the future but I have doubts the playerbase is mostly gone which is the main problem. People have been pissed off too much I guess. I'm still hopeful.

[next onyx]

@sullen badge ❤️

Hope you have a very good Aus day you too man

Have a good lamb chop

[sullen badge]

Alas, i am working

😠
I will have a good lamb chop, thank you

[arctic grove]

Are you guys from Australia

[next onyx]

Nahhh I'm a kiwi that celebrates Australia day

Ain't that right Neo

[sullen badge]

I just like to pretend i'm australian for fun

[arctic grove]

I was wondering if they're still building those camps over there

[next onyx]

Nahhh in seriousness, Neo and I are Aussies :)

[worthy inlet]

I'm the only Aussie here really

And by here I mean in Aus

[next onyx]

Quiet Manic, WA Doesn't exist.

[sullen badge]

you say that but i got a bowie knife for my birthday so who's to tell

[arctic grove]

I'm guessing everyone here at my night time is probably aussie

[next onyx]

YOOO that's cool, A bowie knife.

Yeah it's pretty late into the night.

[worthy inlet]

10/10 gift

[sullen badge]

I use it to keep the drop bears away, very handy

[slow crown]

The hit reg on the M5 is terrible hence why I hardly use that weapon it need a buff

[gaunt urchin]

works fine for me also…. who asked

[next onyx]

That's a game issue not a gun issue

Koalas become drop bears during breeding season and it's actually kinda scary hearing the growling in the middle of the night

Especially up in the hills.

Though you have to be on the lookout for Hoop snakes, They're a true threat.

[slow crown]

@next onyx Agreed, I have myself spray bullets at the target and none registering

[sullen badge]

No thanks, i'll continue to live in suburbia

And by suburbia i mean north of the river

[arctic grove]

Do hoop snakes hangout with bigfoot

[next onyx]

I feel sorry for you cause of the Mozzies

Infact no matter what i do going out, I'll bring pants and a jacket cause i don't want to be eaten alive.

[dark marsh]

wait bf2042 is going to be free to play?

[next onyx]

We don't really know that.

[dark marsh]

nah i paid 70€ for this, not fair

[fierce gull]

Mostly likely going to be portal or HZ

Or they have another plan in their sleeves as what Tom Henderson said

Idk maybe to gamepass

[full chasm]

Hz is boring af

[lilac plinth]

when update? whennnnn????

[fierce gull]

They could do a kickass update warzone 2.0 if they make it free

[next onyx]

Mid February for update apparently

[lilac plinth]

😫

[full chasm]

They need to completely overhaul it which is unlikely

[arctic grove]

This seems to come in waves

[north wave]

They won't make HZ/portal free until they figure out how to monitize

[arctic grove]

Hz is pretty much dead

[full chasm]

And for good reason

[arctic grove]

people who bought it for >70 € should get a big collection of skins, if the game changes to F2P

[desert elbow]

Hazard Zone is really fun but there isn't much incentive to play it, imo it should be more about looting and upping the risk

[arctic grove]

Few hundred players only. I can't even get my friends to play it and all they play is battlefield

I think hz is fun but soulless

[dark marsh]

hz feels empty

[arctic grove]

Of that makes any sense

[full chasm]

Nothing unique like a second thought

[fierce gull]

Btw imma look at the art book again

Sexy angel

[full chasm]

The next bf is a hero shooter rite

[fierce gull]

Idk
Marcus Lehto said no

[full chasm]

Hopefully with vince zampella the next game will be good

[arctic grove]

I like him in the concept art better because the actual game he has such a shit eating grin. Makes me want to punch it

[fierce gull]

The one we have now is the funny dude

[full chasm]

Dont worry thats just how it works out sometimes

[fierce gull]

He just insults you with a grin on his face

But the one in the concept art looks serious

[arctic grove]

There was a pretty funny post on Reddit about angel and his end of round appearance. The game glitched he didn't say he's line and just stared off into the distance. It was his thousand-yard stare

[karmic void]

Why did they shave angel

[fierce gull]

Idk man
They even shaved the grapple hook dude

[arctic grove]

Don't be sad while smiling in your face 😂

[fierce gull]

And he had hair

[karmic void]

7 minutes of silence

[arctic grove]

maybe their beards will regrow as the backstory continues

[fierce gull]

Pleeeewssseeeee dice

Do this
Let them get a beard

[arctic grove]

Shaved heads are cool though

Only getting 2 or 1 man squads

[fierce gull]

Dang that's cold

[arctic grove]

Midwest NA crossplay on too lol

man this game is fun after the update

[karmic void]

What update

[arctic grove]

there wasnt even an update needed this game is great!

[arctic grove]

I'm sensing sarcasm

#game-news message

[arctic grove]

is where its at

[karmic void]

When is season 1 arriving?

[arctic grove]

Are you pulling out your V-card 😎

March

end of feb maybe?

Middle of March

[arctic grove]

how did u know ? 😄

[fierce gull]

I did a big brain guess
The release date for the next update is February 17th

[daring pawn]

Hopefully march if they want this game to be revived

[arctic grove]

I made it just shy of lvl 300 on bfV

this game cnanot be revived it will go free to play

[daring pawn]

Most likely yes

[arctic grove]

this game is no hate bullshit

I don't see how free-to-play would benefit anyone

[karmic void]

Then I want my moneeey back

[arctic grove]

All that would probably do is show investors that the game is a fail

for steam buyers you still can

[fierce gull]

Just make portal free to play and add metro to blind people with nostalgia and instant 100,000,000 players

[karmic void]

Aint no way I’m paying 100$ for a beta test

[arctic grove]

i paid 60$ for gold

[karmic void]

Cool

[fierce gull]

Damn dice should hire me

[arctic grove]

HAHA

How much would dice have to pay you to work for them

[fierce gull]

Idk a normal $200,000 per minute

[cosmic radish]

Can't believe there's people still taking this game serious and play the game to S999

[arctic grove]

just like 40 mio a year np

[cosmic radish]

Make the game free to play and refund our money maybe

[arctic grove]

hey at least we wouldnt do worse 😄

[arctic grove]

maybe loyal visitors of the xp farms

I really despise XP farming

Its like catfishing

[copper fulcrum]

Hey

[scarlet ember]

did getdeviceremovedreason decrease for u guys?

[fierce gull]

For me yes

[arctic grove]

Honestly, rank has no value anymore. You don't know how much of it is based on xp farms.

[fierce gull]

For some reason I'm not getting it anymore after the update

[arctic grove]

That's true. Stat padding and xp farming is like cheating on a test and then thinking your an a+ student

[copper fulcrum]

How are y'all doin'?

[arctic grove]

Fucking cold I'm on the roof
