battlefield-2042

[plucky plaza]

The whole game likely isnt going to be free to play, that would be a terrible decision

[misty cave]

If a game becomes Free to Play they don't owe us shit. You purchased a game, you got a game. Law is law baby.

They're within the law to do so... Sadly. The only thing they have to do is provide the content they promised, even if that's through a F2P service - it's still within the legal boundaries.

The NICE thing to do would be to reimburse players, but the EA thing would be not to. The legal thing also applies to the latter, there is no requirement for them to do so.

[fallen spear]

thats ok

[plucky plaza]

If the game goes free to play cosmetics will be their income

[fallen spear]

thats why god created charge backs

[quick linden]

well yeah ik that, but as i said "hopefully" they would give some IN GAME reimbursement

they did this with PUBG recently

[misty cave]

Unwise, they'll ban your account on whatever you purchased the game.

[fallen spear]

fuck ea and every one of there products if they go there

[candid cosmos]

theyll reimbursed you with Skins

[fallen spear]

really would not care

I can make new accounts all day

[misty cave]

Then go for it man, more power to you to be honest.

[fallen spear]

will do

[misty cave]

😉

[fallen spear]

give me 60 bucks to epic or some other game publisher that accually gives a fuck there is nothing on my origin account I care about

[still vault]

1 account for every game you own. Gees. Kinda sad way to do things. + at the same time pissing off ones back with fake charge backs ....eeeek

[fallen spear]

nothing fake about it legitimate recourse

[misty cave]

At this rate, I'm only using Origin because of Battlefield games... If i had owned them all on steam, I'd have zero connection to that shite.

[fallen spear]

its why it exists

[naive quiver]

https://tenor.com/view/dwight-schrute-the-office-salute-yes-sir-rip-gif-16721894

[still vault]

It really isn't

[misty cave]

Numerous accounts are against the Origin and EA TOS. Funnily enough...

[fallen spear]

yea really don't care about either of those things either honstly probly would not even bothre

there is NOTHING in ea's catalog I care about other then the rotting corpse that is battlefield

[misty cave]

I get more pissed off that every company these days is trying their own subscription shite, and it's working because fools go out and buy it. Now we've got launchers for every fucking game, 100s more accounts for daily things and much more $10 a month subscriptions... It's getting out of hand

[tight tapir]

Chargebacks can occur because "Not as described or defective merchandise"

[misty cave]

EPIC store, Ubi, Steam (The only one that I consider true), Origin, EA Play, EA Launcher, Battlenet, etc... It goes on and on

[mental cave]

yall know you can get a free taco from taco bell every day of the month for 10$ a month?

[misty cave]

Correct - also - for EU memebers here -
https://www.europarl.europa.eu/news/en/press-room/20190121IPR23915/consumers-rights-against-defective-digital-content-agreed-by-eu-lawmakers

[fallen spear]

that would almost be worth it mmmm free tacos

[misty cave]

I'm good, I cherish somewhat having a functional anus.

[fallen spear]

ea keeps this crap up it won't be that long before the US passes a similar law

[misty cave]

The US has something, you can g o to the better business bureau

[mental cave]

it takes use like 3 presidents to pass laws that affect businesses

[misty cave]

And one to fuck them all over...

[mental cave]

yup

[fallen spear]

I don't think EA's BBB ranking could get any lower

[grand oxide]

so world much corrupt

[fallen spear]

https://www.bbb.org/us/ca/redwood-city/profile/wholesale-video-games/electronic-arts-inc-1116-64196

[misty cave]

If it did, it'd glitch through the floor in traiditional BF style.

403 Forbidden. lel

[daring pawn]

If this game becomes f2p, when do you guys think it’ll happen

[misty cave]

if, which it wont, never, because see point 1.

[fallen spear]

pitch forks and lynching is likely

[mental cave]

a little before the next bf release

[daring pawn]

Point 1?

[fallen spear]

I mean they shit canned battlefield play4free because it wasn't making them enough money and that was accually good

[mental cave]

on ps plus and Xbox gold which isn't free technically but thats what they did for bf1 and bfv lol

[misty cave]

Likely outcome here is, EA will drop DICE (Which I 100% see coming since DICE no longer have the SW contract for Disney), and 2. - they'll be forced to focus solely on the content for BF2042 until the year is out, then they'll drop them and split DICE Up, diving the assets among other EA facilities.

[still vault]

Problem is, product is not defective. It delivers what is in the promotional material / on the box.
So we are back to chargeback fraud which is very much illegal.

[tight tapir]

it is defective.

[misty cave]

Battlefield is done guys... EA is about Apex nowadays, they wanted to see how Battlefield would handle an Apex type situation - and, they now know, it wouldn't work. So, instead of hoping it would, and continuing - they'll abandon and focus efforts on wacky shite skins for Apex

[misty cave]

So you'd say the trailer is representative 100% of the game?

[fallen spear]

^

or any of the marketing stuff or statements made on twitter

[misty cave]

They milked the ass out of ALL of the EA sports games, now they're dying, I mean, EA is so shitty - they literally got laws passed against their "SURPRISE MECHANICS"

[mental cave]

you gonna sue axe because it doesn't make women flock to you like hungry ducks?

[still vault]

Which part?

[tight tapir]

Don't be lazy. Play the game, watch the clips, experience yourself.

[misty cave]

Different situation. Im not suggesting the product does this, what I'm saying is that - the game trailer states - "GAME ENGINE FOOTAGE" which, to the average idiot is = "Ingame" so they assume all thats on screen is 100% representative of the end result.

[obsidian sigil]

Lol

[misty cave]

This means that, little old Doris who is like 80,000 years old and remembers jesus's 1st birthday, who never games, is likely to think that is indeed representative of the game.

[sleek heart]

this is the stuff that gets me

https://medal.tv/games/battlefield-2042/clips/9lP90TP8nvg5E/d13371RqwZYz?invite=cr-MSxNc3ksMjc1MTYyMDIs

[still vault]

Like a movietrailer is representative of a movie.

[next isle]

I'm curious what the trailer shows that you objectively can't do

[wide shore]

There’s only one thing that comes to mind. Launching vehicles with Dynamite.

[misty cave]

My main point, befroe i got sidetracked... Is that the trailer is NOT representative of the game.

[next isle]

Which parts aren't?

[misty cave]

The tone of the actual trailer. It depicts a dark, nitty gritty warzone. Which part of BF2042 is anything but janky stupidity with quips everywhere? The specialists were almost non-existent in their goofy style in the trailer. And for good measure!

[next isle]

This is not an argument, just curious to hear your thoughts

[tight tapir]

I think you are responding to the wrong person.

[arctic grove]

bf1 was the game where the final game actually played 100% like the trailers

back when dice was actually competent

[misty cave]

No no, not a problem. But my main issue is that the trailer is dark, gritty and gruesome. The specialist goofyness is 100% toned down and almost hidden away.

[arctic grove]

i still cant fathom how this game is rated M

like what makes it suitable for M?

[misty cave]

We're lead to believe the world is falling apart, people belong to no nation, they're fighting for their right to survive, oil and food is scarce. Then we've got fucking Cowboy Woody walking up "Well Well Well! That was fun!" as he gallops down a ultra tidy, smooth high street some place with not a single indication of a war.

[arctic grove]

it plays like a T rated game lmao

[mental cave]

well with this logic that you're saying, and I really think you're not saying anything at all because you're just dressing up your argument to be really long and pointless like im doing right now. There could be "idiots" as you called them who actually think axe will make them a bad bitch magnet like in the ads.. just like theres "idiots" that think the game will look just like the cinematic trailers so do these "idiots" gain some sort of extra rights in a court room?

[wide shore]

There’s a rendezook in the original trailer though

[misty cave]

Loopzook. You mean.

😛

[arctic grove]

dice and ea just tapped into the nostalgia to hype up the fanbase to no end

because they know they will need it later

[crisp junco]

Im convinced that the cheese wedge transport is stronger than a tank in this game

[misty cave]

I am in no way intending for my points to be long and drawn out. I'm intending for my message to be as clear as possible with as little room for people to prod at the side of it. I'm saying, games are typically advertised - with what is in the game, the tone of the game, the idea of the game. This Trailer was 100% not, and in no way, representative of Battlefield 2042 in any way shape or form.

[still vault]

Not saying I disagree that the tone in trailers generally often don't reflect the final product in the entertainment industry. The "tone" of a trailer however is not really measurable and thus can't be used legally to come to any conclusion about something being "defective".

[wide shore]

Definitely more efficient.

[tight tapir]

I am interested what EA / DICE will say after the earnings call. They are pretty silent these days.

[arctic grove]

they will pull some bullshit out of their ass

i really hope the investors ask some goooood questions

[mental cave]

neither is any game or advertisement for anything. because advertisement is supposed to make the product look appealing and pretty

[tight tapir]

I wonder how many shareholders actually played the game.

[arctic grove]

if i would guess probably 5

[crisp junco]

1 new hire

[misty cave]

Forget legality. I don't know why everyone comes back to legal issues here... I'm saying from a players perspective, from my perspective. Fuck the law, I couldn't give two shits if its legal or not. My point is - the trailer made us believe, that the game would be dark, would be serious like before, would be meaningful. It did NOT show us specalists with their goofy oufits, it did not us clean streets and quips, it did not show us the horrendous soundtrack, it did not show us the buggyness of the MP and so on. See what I'm saying?

[mental cave]

I see, so you're a karen?

[crisp junco]

Would be interesting to see a trailer with bugs lmao

[mental cave]

[tight tapir]

Yeah, the trailer was very distant from the actual in game experience.

[arctic grove]

i totally agree the final product is a total 180 from the game they showed us in the trailers

[obsidian sigil]

Skyrim? Yikes lmao

[misty cave]

What?..

[arctic grove]

like some fucking cartoon

[misty cave]

And this right here is the point I was aiming at... Thank you.

[next isle]

Would people be happier if the in-engine trailer had gameplay bugs?

[arctic grove]

in a game where the world was supposed to be collapsing

[plucky plaza]

I mean trailers dont show bugs lol

[crisp junco]

It would be funny atleast

[plucky plaza]

If it did that would just be embarrasing

[tight tapir]

I think people care about being misled.

[mental cave]

obviously the trailer doesn't show the bugs lmao how would they sell game

[still vault]

I see what you are saying. I'm just saying there's nothing new or shocking here. Trailers, for games have been doing this for 20+ years.

[obsidian sigil]

Isn't your pfp a cat drinking wine? That video seems familiar lol

[misty cave]

No. I think people would be able to make more clearly thought out decisions had the game shown what was actually in it. Instead of hiding all the goofy shit away and focusing on nostalgia boner-riding events.

[arctic grove]

the trailer is misleading period

[misty cave]

Yes, but typically BF trailers are somewhat relatable to the game. Often more so than not.

[arctic grove]

its like a totally different game

[plucky plaza]

The trailer showed specialists, emphasized? thats a different story, but it for sure showed

[arctic grove]

most of the time it showed the typical grunts we all know and love

the only obvious specialist shown was espinoza

[mental cave]

they also uploaded multiple videos about specialists

[obsidian sigil]

Trailer showed air vehicles who can kill people, air vehicles always kill me... i would say trailer is accurate lol

[plucky plaza]

Sundance was really obvious lol

[misty cave]

it did NOT show the specialists emphasized. No, in fact, - before I had played the game, I could not identify them in the trailer since everyone looked like military personnel. And that was the point, they knew if they had Woody and Santa Boris running around in that trailer, there'd be a shitstorm.

[arctic grove]

also does anyone actually use the robodog?

i have like never seen it in game

no because i spend my days playing BF1 a much more polished game

[next isle]

Is that a yes or a no?

[obsidian sigil]

How? They are everywhere lol

[plucky plaza]

You and I are playing different games then, i see it every game

[arctic grove]

maybe i just dont pay attention idk

[tight tapir]

I don't care to speculate.

[mental cave]

so you didnt see the mass amounts of postings they did on Twitter and Instagram and YouTube about the specialists before the release, as well as the big library of gameplay from the beta

[arctic grove]

the reveal trailer didnt show specialists a majority of the time

[plucky plaza]

This is not a lie: from the reveal trailer itself I personally did foreshadow the concept of specialists in the game

but yeah it didnt emphasize

[obsidian sigil]

Honestly i saw the main trailer, decided than and there i wanted the game. Here i am enjoying it lol

No regrets :D

[strange widget]

I'm back to bitch

[plucky plaza]

but there were some bits where u can kind of tell

[still vault]

Not really, take the BF4 MP trailer. Runs faster, much more action, way more levelution, epic BF moments constantly. Totally not representative in the same way.

Same can be said for I think all the Battlefield multiplayer trailers.

[arctic grove]

nooooooo you cant have fun playing 2042!!!!! /s

[arctic grove]

copium

to the max

[obsidian sigil]

Ah shit sorry my bad, i will just continue enjoying it 🤷‍♂️

[arctic grove]

didnt see the /s

[obsidian sigil]

No clue what that means

[strange widget]

Bf2042 bad!!! Now give me my updoots!!!

[misty cave]

Let me put it like this, since everyone is rather throwing back questions instead of answering or at least understanding my point.

[arctic grove]

what is your zodiac sign?

[arctic grove]

you are coping with the fact that you payed for a unfinished game so you call it good

[strange widget]

Copium

[plucky plaza]

If you think because the in-engine trailer doesnt show any bugs and you think that the actual game will be bugless, then honestly thats on you, thats your own fault.

[misty cave]

You see a trailer for the next Super Mario, you think "Oh nice, I'll buy that." and you open up the game, expecting a typical game - and you're greeted with Mario, but it's not Mario, it's some goofy spin off, with quips, the tone is different, and the mechanics of the game break to no end. Would you be happy with that?

[strange widget]

Bro super Mario is fucking dope

[obsidian sigil]

Lol no i am happy with the game, i am so done with historical shooters that have been on the market for years. I am happy with a new modern bf game

[strange widget]

I'm ganna play it tonight on my DS like a chad

[arctic grove]

You're actually coping rn

[misty cave]

WHen developers tweet that they're way ahead of schedule, and primise that the beta we played was indeed months old only to find it not true, what do you think we shoulod do? Players are told one thing, and then the fault is on them? Strongly disagree there man...

[obsidian sigil]

Bf4 got boring because the only servers active are locker... bruh

[arctic grove]

how do you enjoy a bf game thats missing most of the details and animations that should be in a bf game

[strange widget]

Bro who remembers when you closed the DS it went "BYE BYEE"

[obsidian sigil]

Nope because i bought bf42 with a link for 30 euro lol. I bought it last week not even a pre order

[misty cave]

And if the Beta was truly months old - like they said, then NONE OF THE FUCKING BUGS from the beta would be in the final game... And yet, here we are... With the same bugs, from day 1.

[mental cave]

lol that actually happened, its called super mario 64

[strange widget]

Fucking top tier addition to Mario DS

[plucky plaza]

The "ahead of schedule" incident is a different story. I will be honest and say: they absolutely and utterly lied on that part. I cant really say anything else really, they literally just blatantly lied to us

[arctic grove]

I cope with the fact that i spent 100 bucks for what i thought would be a bf4 remaster.

[elder patrol]

I got orange

[obsidian zinc]

I never expect things remaining the same. a Super Mario shooter would be cool, though.

[plucky plaza]

They are defeinitely NOT ahead of schedule and thats soo obvious

[obsidian zinc]

xD

[strange widget]

Mario kart DS was the shit

[misty cave]

And this is my point, when the company producing the product - promise us, time and time again, that things will be better, the end support for a major TWO games, have numerous studios working on it, skip an entire HALF of the game (SP), and delay it, not forgetting the 3 year work time on it, and then release this... I have to ask, what the fuck did they do the whole time?

[strange widget]

150cc races were brutal

[obsidian sigil]

Because i wanted an modern shooter with a but of sci-fi and better graphics than the current games offer... i would say this game looks better than the average games i played... not the best but certainly not the worst

[mental cave]

idk if mario was a good example because the game literally thrives off of goofy spin offs 😭

[old ridge]

N64 leyend

[strange widget]

MARIO IS THE FUTURE OF GAMING FOOLS

SUBMIT

[arctic grove]

wouldn't matter if you wanted a modern shooter game. the details and animations that made battlefield battlefield should still be in the game imo

[misty cave]

See. I make a point using an obscure reference to help iterate my point and ends up just derailing the topic entirely.

fml.

[strange widget]

Shut up nerd

[tight tapir]

This game has been the ultimate test for me of "If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all".

[misty cave]

That's not an insult. lol

[strange widget]

Mario is S tier

[obsidian sigil]

I bought an modern shooter, for the theme... i didn't buy the game because it was battlefield otherwise i would've bought BF 1 and 5 as well

[plucky plaza]

To be fair, they never explicitly promised that this game would be good and things will get better. But on the contrary, I agree that EA and DICE did a terrible job on this game and its obvious more than a month ago. One possible reason why is because Frostbite is hard to work with, but dont get me wrong, im definitely not defending them at all lol

[old ridge]

Mario best games

[strange widget]

Mario is love, Mario is life

[arctic grove]

well you sir have wasted your money! because better BF titles exist out there

[misty cave]

You sure about that? The developers absolutely did... lmao. And Frostbite being hard to work with is not a get out of jail free card.

[arctic grove]

considering dice themselves developed frostbite

[mental cave]

its probably cus nobody really cares and youre arguing to validate your own opinion which you really don't have to do. Your opinion is valid but your opinion can only be validated by yourself. That's how you choose mental health over killing yourself trying to argue your opinion

[strange widget]

Who remembers Mario and Luigi RPG games

[misty cave]

Fucking never a more truthful thing have I ever read. I think I'll just stop here. Thanks for that, I think I needed that to be honest.

[plucky plaza]

If a company promised that the game will be "good" (good is very subjective btw) and that the game will be bugless and perfect, they are basically nailing themselves in a coffin. I believe every company is rational enough not to promise that

[obsidian sigil]

Well sir, than your opinion and mine are different... doesn't make any one of us 'wrong' it just makes us human 🤷‍♂️

[austere bronze]

i'm getting the game on february 1st
because i want it

[strange widget]

Mario and Luigi browsers inside story was dope

[misty cave]

I'll get the screenshots for you now and you can make your mind up, then I'll finish there.

[arctic grove]

bad idea. buy BF1 instead

[plucky plaza]

Like I said im basing this off of rationality, I mean who would promise their game to be bugless

[strange widget]

Bro buy what the fuck you want

[austere bronze]

naw

[strange widget]

It's your money

[misty cave]

Wasn't trying to get people to agree with me, only trying to get them to see from my perspective. Instead, get called a nerd, thrown "copium" at me and of course - discourse going in the wrong direction because I fucking stupidly mentioned Mario... 😐 own fault i guess lmao

[austere bronze]

it's my money and i get to pick what i want
don't force me

[strange widget]

Buy it so you can bitch about the game here like all of us

[plucky plaza]

If DICE promised this game to be bugless than u can literally report them for blatantly scamming lol

[strange widget]

Fucking chad

[still vault]

Good luck finding any software developer saying that, games or not 😄

That's just not how software works.

[arctic grove]

if you dont like it, just buy it

the dice mentality

[austere bronze]

to me, i want to ignore the bugs and i just want to have fun in a world that is collapsing with angel saying "don't be sad, it's just how it works out sometimes"

[strange widget]

Buy a Nintendo switch

Play mario

[plucky plaza]

Exactly absolutely correct, that was my previous statement. "If a company promised that the game will be "good" (good is very subjective btw) and that the game will be bugless and perfect, they are basically nailing themselves in a coffin. I believe every company is rational enough not to promise that"

[obsidian sigil]

Too many people, too mant different opinions... it is what it is... i enjoy the game tho 🤷🏽‍♂️

It isn't perfect true, but give it time and a couple of updates/patches and it will be better than it is now

Alright that last one is definitely up to you... no one said keep arguing with Carbonic in the chat lol

[strange widget]

I TOLD YOU TO KEEP UP!

[final spoke]

I think there is some SBMM in the game

[daring pawn]

Not when everyone quit

[misty cave]

No no i wasn't arguing, i was replying because of the Gif lmao, it made me lol.

[strange widget]

There's bots

[obsidian sigil]

But yeah understandable, everyone has a life and ya can't always play

[nocturne junco]

I’m level 20 and got fucked by a prestige 24

Hehe

[wide violet]

[strange widget]

Lol

[austere bronze]

i would kill myself

[strange widget]

No you wouldn't

Here is the tweets i was referring to -

i was joking dude

[arctic grove]

I’ll come back in 2 seconds

[strange widget]

I wasn't

[arctic grove]

Is the game fixed yet

[mental cave]

just throw every match, then go on a 100 kill streak for some youtube clips in the scrub lobbies

[strange widget]

Yes

The game is fixed

[misty cave]

Specifically a screenshot, I couldn't give two shits about Reddit.

[arctic grove]

lies. I still don’t get knocked back by explosions into me arse

[obsidian sigil]

I just found it funny, i wasn't attacking ya lol

[strange widget]

EASY IN EASY OUT

[misty cave]

All good man, but like i said. Many developers there. Just wanted ot highlight my earlier point.

[obsidian sigil]

I also couldn't care about social media at all. I won't talk shit about it tho... literally doesn't help anyone 🤷🏽‍♂️

[austere bronze]

THAT WAS SOMETHING RIGHT

[obsidian sigil]

Nice

[misty cave]

Just didn't want to say "Oh i'll get screenshots" and then vanish into the ether. Actually wanted to backup my claim is all.

[plucky plaza]

They were just saying they are making progress; that still doesnt mean that they promised this game will be good

not tryna argue im just saying

it still isnt really a "promise" per se

[strange widget]

Yeah man wish dice just said "Hey guys dint fucking buy the game"

[misty cave]

They did with BFV and look what happened there at the start...

[obsidian sigil]

That's cool no worries

[strange widget]

All I remember was the woman summersaultibg through a building with a metal leg

[misty cave]

And to think that was the thing many people took issue with...

[jovial quest]

O shit oops

[misty cave]

BFV was a good game. I couoldn't care which player I played as, the game was solid after many patches.

Women, prosthetics etc. Did not mind it, just got a little irritating hearing the "It's not historically accurate" argument, when, in reality - almost 80% of the fucking game wasn't either... But that's another day's fight.

[austere bronze]

do i have to bring up on how bfv was a shitshow

[acoustic oar]

i agree

deadpoxx

[plucky plaza]

I agree, i mean BF1 isnt historically accurate either

[misty cave]

That's the point - none of them are...

And yet many people seem to think it's a fucking milsim.

[fierce gull]

No cuz it's obvious it was a shitshow
Right?

[plucky plaza]

Thats just how ppl be, they want everything to be a milsim

[misty cave]

Nah they want the graphical milsim - not the gameplay aspects.

[austere bronze]

yeah it was

[misty cave]

if that wasn't true, they'd all be playing on Arma.

[fierce gull]

I want everything to be mislim
Time to sign up for the army

[austere bronze]

you got dice saying "don't like, don't buy" and what happened? the preorders were fucking horrible

[misty cave]

What specifically was a shit show for you? Becaue BFV in my mind still followed a large portion of the battlefield recipe.

[summer crescent]

Hourglass sucks as a map

[misty cave]

And had some nice character customisation too to be honest...

[fierce gull]

Yeah I don't like how it plays out
But when sandstorm arrives the map is beautiful

[misty cave]

Besides the elites, we had time period fitting outfits etc.

[plucky plaza]

I mean lots of ppl complained about BF2042 cosmetics even ones like Cowboy Mackay, which in my opinion, isnt THAT bad

[misty cave]

The specialist system doesn't bother me. I like the ability to swap out gadgets and things, it's how it is now, what I miss is the ability to be a generic faceless trooper.

[fierce gull]

Assault?

[strange widget]

NTX go Bang

[fierce gull]

I mean except engineer and support

[misty cave]

I don't want end of round quips, intro loading cutscenes, etc...

[plucky plaza]

The specialist system doesnt really bother me much either, my only problem with the game is content

[elder patrol]

Yall ever had a blood orange before

[plucky plaza]

and bugs, etc. obv

[fierce gull]

Yeah

[austere bronze]

when i get the game, i'll tell y'all my opinion on it

[crisp junco]

I feel like people wouldve loved the customization if they kept it to stuff like fallshirmjager uniform or us navy officer ect

[plucky plaza]

Not me

[elder patrol]

It's a damn good fruit, got the aftertaste of raspberries

[misty cave]

Battlefield 2042 needs better maps, more weaponry, with unique feels. It needs the ability to wear unique outfits that fit with the rest of the soldiers on the field. the AI looks better than the specialists.

[fierce gull]

Except Casper and dozer
They look fire

[misty cave]

In BFV i always ran with the default outfits since I liked them. When I saw the elites the first time, I assumed they'd have some special ability. They didn't. Then BF2042 happened and well, every one has a special ability so..

[plucky plaza]

Very noice

[fierce gull]

Hot af

[plucky plaza]

best T1 if i had to pick is still Sundance

[misty cave]

They look dope because you can be them. You're not forced to take on another identity - under the mask or the ghillie suit you're a faceless, nameless soldier. Living, fighting, dying for the team.

[austere bronze]

we're definitely getting new maps and weapons in season 1
also that scoreboard concept they showed was awful, i hope that's the final look

[misty cave]

You're nothing more than a ticket in those outfits. And that is Battlefield's true meaning...

[fierce gull]

But Irish is cool tho as well

[misty cave]

That's what it was for me, at least.

[fierce gull]

His default outfit and everything
Fits well

[uncut musk]

😵❤️

Awesome skin

[misty cave]

They heavily emphasised the disposability of the player in earlier games, especially with Battlefield 2 : Modern Combat. When you could hotswap soldiers in the campaign. Really made you feel like when you died, you became another number.

Even in the BF1 into mission, the same thing happened. Every one, no matter if they werre the main character - were disposable.

[elder patrol]

I bet recker will be the next specialist

[fierce gull]

He better

Imagine he turns out to be Oz 😳

[elder patrol]

What's his gadget tho

[misty cave]

He can patch things.

on demand.

[fierce gull]

The grenade launcher he used to kill the heli in the first mission of the campaign

[elder patrol]

I was literally just thinking that

Damn bf4 had a pretty good campaign

[fierce gull]

Should probably be combined with smokes and thermites

[elder patrol]

I could see that being a pretty good tool, they also need to bring the rex

[strange widget]

Rex

T rex

[arctic grove]

bf4 campaign was graphically more impressive than 2042

im serious

[fierce gull]

Ehhhh

[strange widget]

He's serious

[fierce gull]

Idkk mannnn

[arctic grove]

the graphics are nuts

[fierce gull]

The car scene was impressive but everything else was just

[elder patrol]

The one thing I really liked about bf4 campaign was the intro

[fierce gull]

The intro got the hell out of me

But the rest of the game was ok

[elder patrol]

Turn around 🎶

[fierce gull]

Wait a minute

[fierce gull]

What if Dunn is Oz 😳

[elder patrol]

[fierce gull]

Would make no sense but would be interesting

[elder patrol]

They would make it work some way

[neon chasm]

YARRRRR ANGEL DOES IT AGAIN!!!

[strange widget]

DONT BE SAD

[glacial lantern]

fix it fix it fix it

[arctic grove]

the industry standard for dlc releases is 30-45 days after launch

its been 10 fucking weeks and battlefield 2042 still doesnt have dlc

[elder patrol]

If you'll excuse me, I have a orange to peel

[arctic grove]

[strange widget]

Love me some orange peeling

[elder patrol]

Blood orange

[fierce gull]

So bfv was a shitshow

[arctic grove]

what does bfv have to do with this

[foggy halo]

Oranges are really underrated

[fierce gull]

Idk how long it took to get a dlc

[arctic grove]

im pretty sure it wasnt this long

[fierce gull]

[foggy halo]

I hope you see this

[pale viper]

2042 sucks ass now

[grand prism]

Bfv what's that

[wide shore]

It was quite long. And Panzerstorm was the only new map for a long time. And it was awful

[foggy halo]

Why?

[fierce gull]

Battlefield 5

[fierce gull]

Literal open field

[foggy halo]

It was good for tank mains

[grand prism]

Like i said what's that i forgot BfV existed

[fierce gull]

Oh lol

[pale viper]

maps are boring cuz they have no cover, the maps are just meh, the kills are not satisfying

more importantly NO DESTRUCTION

[wide shore]

Not for anybody else

[fierce gull]

Use the NTW
That shit fire when you kill someone

[tight tapir]

this this this

[fierce gull]

The impact when you hit someone is just amazing

[foggy halo]

The ones that get killed by the tanks

[wide shore]

Nothing but Tigers sitting on the hills. Impossible to kill as infantry. Awful map

[foggy halo]

The 128 version has really big maps, I would rather play the 64 players version

No orange emoji :(

The fruit

[wide shore]

Only reason previous games feel like the destruction is better, is because the maps were littered with copy-paste houses.

The areas that have that same style, (hourglass town, Arica harbor) have the same level of destruction as previous games.

The problem is DICE focused more on massive structures.

Play on Arica Harbor. It has the exact same destruction. If not, better.

[grave prism]

what is the difference between "heavyweight" and "lightweight" guns in this game

is it just leftover words from the, the, before it when it was a battle royale

[tame vine]

heavyweight are generally slower and have fewer rounds, but pack more damage ig

[nocturne junco]

This game is sooooo fun, shotgun to the head point blank = an amazing 14 damage :D

[sleek heart]

lol i always get sniped by them

[nocturne junco]

How I need that shotgun lol

[fierce gull]

The 12M auto does the job

[grave prism]

i swear the pump shotgun just doesnt work half the time you shoot it

[fierce gull]

The shotgun destroys long range and close range

[grave prism]

aiming directly at someone's torso and shoot them and they just dont die

[fierce gull]

880 is just luck

[nocturne junco]

I really wanted to main the shotgun but after seeing this amazing damage output puts me off it

[grave prism]

(and then they turn around and shoot you with the k30)

[fierce gull]

What shotgun are you using

[nocturne junco]

I only have the MCS-880 unlocked

[fierce gull]

Ahh

[waxen veldt]

Need people for hazard zone

[severe root]

is bf2042 fun

like will I have fun playing the game

[nocturne junco]

Ehhhhhhhh depends

[cobalt pond]

As long as you don't like playing with friends, knowing what map you get to play on, talking to anyone (voice or text) in game, don't like flying planes, don't have any expectations for communication from the developers, don't care about any new guns/vehicles coming out and have a powerful computer while still being able to put up with poor performance

[fierce gull]

For me yeah but idk if you are gonna have fun

This is your typical battlefield launch :p
Bugs and shit going on

[scenic tartan]

2042 has a lot of problems tbh but when you're playing with a group you can still have a lot of fun

[fierce gull]

Maybe watch some gameplay on YouTube and see if you like it or not

[scenic tartan]

The SFAR GL is so much fun when you get that direct hit man

[fierce gull]

But damn this is sexy

[plucky pebble]

getting a different scoreboard isnt going to fix how boring the game is so they better announce something next week

[grand prism]

That's completely laughable

Because bugs are funny

[crisp junco]

Pov:
You are about to get mugged

[grand prism]

loads up AR-15

[crisp junco]

What if
The mugger had 2 ar 15s

[grand prism]

Hmmm

[fierce gull]

Call in a tank

Good thing you can call in vehicles now

[severe root]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PkeKSlqgFk0 yeaaahh

nvm i dont think ima buy it

[crisp junco]

True
Or pull out an arsenal lavina

Tanks can take a while to arrive

40mm rounds are instant

[sudden peak]

SQUAD 5 JOIN NOW FOR BANTS AND CONQUEST

[fierce gull]

Look at gameplay videos

[sudden peak]

need 2 guys for conquest SQUAD 5 !!!!

[mental delta]

Bf 2042 is the type of game in which you can't get off a helicopter after spawning on it

[fierce gull]

I will give you 5 reasons to buy 2042

1. Elon musk is canon and we get to blow up his spaceship
2. The game confirmed Hannah's death
3. Beautiful rocks
4. Stark Industries is confirmed canon cuz of the weekly shotgun skin
5. Plus system

[tranquil kettle]

nivelle nights on bf1 is better imo

[waxen veldt]

Need people to play hazard zone

[drowsy sapphire]

How did the game confirm Hannah’s death

[crisp junco]

I only know elon musk and rocks
Idk what the others even are

[crisp junco]

Nivelle nights is sooo good
Espiacially for the ww1 scenario as it is very trench heavy

[fierce gull]

Irish is alive

[crisp junco]

Bf2042 just feels so lifeless

[fierce gull]

Hell no way she survived that explosion

[drowsy sapphire]

Ahhhhhh 👍

[elder patrol]

Im not to keen on them, but these raspberry ones are awesome

[fierce gull]

Not just good rocks
But good dirt too

[grand oxide]

those rock-trees

[obsidian zinc]

what's this?

[fierce gull]

one of the portal maps

[crisp junco]

Eh
Bf1 looked better

[dusty siren]

what game is this

[obsidian zinc]

this is from BF Portal?

[fierce gull]

yes

[obsidian zinc]

where?

[mental delta]

Noshar Canals BF3 map

[fierce gull]

yep

[next isle]

You mean Kaleidoscope?

[naive yarrow]

dis game doo doo

[crisp junco]

Well said

[grand prism]

Your honor cry about it

[crisp junco]

Your*

[grand prism]

Thank you

[naive yarrow]

i’m good,games not worth crying about

[crisp junco]

Game's

[grand prism]

Then stop complaining

[naive yarrow]

i’m not complaining all i said it was ass,im not listening the things that make it bad lmao

[crisp junco]

Is there even a list of things that make it good in contrary?

[barren ore]

English may not be your first language, but that is essentially complaining.

[fierce gull]

Tuk Tuk

[naive yarrow]

lmao ig

games still ass

[barren ore]

Still complaining . . .

[crisp junco]

I may have to reinstall

[crisp junco]

I think he is just saying facts

[scenic tartan]

I appreciate this server every time I play with a group of people here on voice chat I have a phenomenal time and tons of fun

[crisp junco]

Thats very lovely

[scenic tartan]

What I've learned from playing rao and hunting helis is most heli pilots are not very smart

[stark hearth]

6,000 people playing 2042 on a Saturday night LMAO. That is abysmally bad and it's hilarious now

[scenic tartan]

The smart pilots will pop flares before they get hacked then run away or get in better position

[sudden peak]

looking for 1 more guy conquest!!!! SQUAD 5 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[scenic tartan]

The dumb ones will just hope for the best, get hacked then lock on and die

[fierce gull]

that's the total?

[scenic tartan]

I'll hop on

[stark hearth]

On Steamcharts, yep

[topaz coyote]

Trash game

[fierce gull]

ah so just steam

[scenic tartan]

its a bit loud here so i may not chat too much

[arctic grove]

You failed at both attempts, its you’re

[stark hearth]

Still laughably bad though lol. For comparison Valheim has almost 50,000...

[arctic grove]

Hello again 🙂

[wide shore]

“Steam charts indicate a massive decline in game players. Meaning is people stopped playing on steam, all players on both consoles and origin have also lowered.” - Steamchart heads

[stark hearth]

Payday 2 has 45,000 current players

[fierce gull]

hello

[crisp junco]

It aint you are honor now is it

[fierce gull]

[arctic grove]

Oops

I didnt read the full sentence

Sorri

[scenic tartan]

I recommend stop filling up your bingo card and join a group and play BF

[crisp junco]

What did you think the context was then?

[crisp junco]

Honestly
Impressive for payday 2
That game is going really strong

[novel raptor]

DICE should remove sectors, I’ve been playing for a while now and the idea of sectors clearly requires too many brain cells for the average battlefield player to comprehend

[fierce gull]

nevermind 2042 has some pretty good mud

[crisp junco]

It does help that you can buy it for less than a euro aswell

[fierce gull]

but rocks are still top

[arctic grove]

Nah, normally people correct your as you’re thats all

[fierce gull]

don't wanna get my gun dirty

but i allow it to get wet

[arctic grove]

Dirty?

[wintry mortar]

to bad the mud is better quality than the game

[wide shore]

That system was super toned down in BFV as well. It looked great in BF1

[arctic grove]

What do you think this is? Bf1?

[sleek heart]

I really hope that all these things people complain about all the time they put in so i can see what new things people cry about

[foggy crest]

Kanna then it will jam 👀

[arctic grove]

No realism here amigo

[crisp junco]

I still prefer the bf1 mud on some of the western front maps
That game nailed the look of a combat ridden hellhole

[wide shore]

There will always be something.

[arctic grove]

Gunk will get in

[arctic grove]

Mmmm

[crisp junco]

Chauchat jamming rate intensifies

[fierce gull]

the rocks are just too good

but your character can get dirty 🧐

[crisp junco]

Is this a fetish thing?

[fierce gull]

yes

[arctic grove]

I cant get mine dirty?

Rocky

[worthy comet]

mmh yes, these rocks are made out of rocks

[arctic grove]

[fierce gull]

the rocks are beautiful

huge upgrade

[arctic grove]

Oi now now kanna

This is uh

[fierce gull]

mouth?

[arctic grove]

Graphically disturbing

Nothing else

[obsidian sigil]

I mean it is the same hole, just the other end of it lol

[fierce gull]

ears?

[obsidian sigil]

Belly button

[fierce gull]

ahh ok

[copper fulcrum]

Naughty, too naughty.

[arctic grove]

Would anyone believe me if I told you I blew a jet up with a bolte 😂

[copper fulcrum]

yes.

[copper fulcrum]

This is Battlefield 2042, anything is fucking possible really.

[rustic root]

unless it’s warzone

[waxen veldt]

Hazard zone players ps4

[rustic root]

i need none of them done a renezook

[signal saddle]

Hey hey

[rustic root]

bruh the momment u start a firefight u die

[arctic grove]

I was quite impressed seeing as I was using the rockets 😂

[rustic root]

best leave that mode alone

[arctic grove]

why game poopoo

[copper fulcrum]

Rendezooks are definitely possible, hell even Rodeozooks are possible

I managed to land on a speeding enemy jet, stick it with C5 and blow it up lol

[full leaf]

I got a new PC 2 weeks ago. On my old machine, I had no issues but now I have massive latency issues and package loss in every game mode and at any time with the game telling me my ping is beyond 300 or 500. Every other game (e.g. Rainbow Six Extraction or World of Warships runs fine with a 35 ms ping). Has anyone else similar issues with Battlefield?

[obsidian sigil]

I still love the fact that you can run on top of the chopper for a second when you leave an flying chopper that flies in an angle when leaving

[dreamy shard]

What went from with this game

[warped pilot]

any news from the game going f2p?

[arctic grove]

Im playing on PS5 and ever since the patch last week i cannot play 2042 for atleast 30 minutes without it crashing and sending me back to the home screen. Is anyone here having the same problem or can help me? Its getting very frustrating

[calm crow]

tag an ea community team member they should help u

[novel raptor]

Yeah everyone has that problem on console, fix comes late February, enjoy the game

[arctic grove]

February

[novel raptor]

Hotfixes? never heard of em

[foggy tundra]

dont try to get people to ping EA/Dice employees here please and thank you

[calm crow]

why are they even here?

to look cool and flex the dice badge?

[fierce gull]

idk you tell me

[copper fulcrum]

They talk from time to time and post announcements

sometimes

[foggy tundra]

if theyre active in the conversation its fine

[fierce gull]

Mackay doesn't deal with bullshit

[foggy tundra]

but its not fine if they arent

[copper fulcrum]

If those icons weren't there, I'd say that image looks almost real

[fierce gull]

[foggy tundra]

almost unreal 5

[obsidian sigil]

😂😂

UE5 has nothing on this, this is frostbite 6 lol

[foggy tundra]

frostbite 4 but ok

[copper fulcrum]

Frostbite 2042

[obsidian sigil]

Ah my bad, my knowledge about it doesn't go further than the name 😂

[foggy tundra]

lol

[tropic granite]

frostbite 69420

[obsidian sigil]

But what i do know is 6 > 5 so frostbite 6 it is lol

[tropic granite]

Thought they’ve been running on frostbite 3 since BF4

or just stopped giving them names

[obsidian sigil]

Wait what if the next frostbite engine is so realistic, it actually gives us frostbite wounds in snowy maps 👀

[foggy tundra]

HE KNOWS TOO MUCH

[obsidian sigil]

OH SHIT 😂

[foggy tundra]

https://tenor.com/view/reptile-star-trek-look-back-what-turn-around-gif-16506545

[obsidian sigil]

If the next BF title goes VR than our face will also have frostbite wounds

[tight tapir]

I love stare at rock simulator too

[fierce gull]

is it possible to lay down like this

oh wait nvm it is

[nocturne junco]

Lvl 22 put into a S043’s lobby. I love this matchmaking, no wonder why people fucking left

[plush coyote]

nah they left because the game is absolute shit

[fierce gull]

[copper fulcrum]

It's battlefield, your skill don't matter anyways in the field of 63 other players on your team

[nocturne junco]

Honestly, I want a refund. This shit is ass

[fierce gull]

i usually complain about levels in games like call of duty but battlefield?? lol no

huge ass maps with vehicles

[copper fulcrum]

I mean, I rejoined Battlefield V earlier and a Level 22 was on the scoreboard going like 65-10 and at the bottom was a level 500 going 5-16 lmao

[fierce gull]

doesn't really matter the level
you can still shat on them

[copper fulcrum]

Yes.

[foggy crest]

What happened to your rocks ???

[fierce gull]

still beautiful and healthy

[foggy crest]

Nope 🥲

[arctic grove]

So funny how im willing to look past all the BS in this game to play and enjoy it and dice just crash me for no reason

[scenic tartan]

i dont think it even does skill based matchmaking..

[fierce gull]

[foggy crest]

U lowered the graphics right ?

[fierce gull]

yeah

[foggy crest]

That's why

[fierce gull]

hmm still good rocks

[foggy crest]

Rocks are always good provide cover 👍

[weary osprey]

[arctic grove]

https://c.tenor.com/G8DblQbjaKUAAAAM/funny-animals-bunny.gif

[fierce gull]

I heard a dev on twitter saying you can get stuck in the waiting for players screen but i don't really know much about
try quitting and matchmake again

[plucky plaza]

it does that sometimes, idk the reasoning for it maybe coz the lobby is dead

[fierce gull]

either that or it's bugged

[tight tapir]

Probably bugged

[austere bronze]

do you know what should they bring back in 2042? those wacky reloads from hardline and 1

[vestal lichen]

Well

Don't be sad, this is just how it works out sometimes!

[fierce gull]

this don't be sad thing is getting old

[austere bronze]

no it’s still funny

it will never not be funny

[arctic grove]

Spidey says don’t be sad

[errant scarab]

[desert tartan]

yeah the sad thing is gettin old... i think its because the game itself is just getting annoying

[arctic grove]

No

[ornate mango]

someone do me a favor and enter a breaktrough lobby and tell it is me or the game being dead

[desert tartan]

Don't look me like that. I am not cheat seller or cheat user.

[desert tartan]

you can write down every round and do the math i guess lol

[torpid shuttle]

Soon...

[plucky plaza]

Thats what a cheat seller and a cheat user would say

[torpid shuttle]

LOL. Prove it.

[fast adder]

Oh of course they aren't it's a brutal expectation and a legacy feature I have forgotten

[desert tartan]

i never understood cheating... its funny seeing it in game sometimes cnt lie but i never understand the enjoyment for the user of the cheat

[plucky plaza]

Unfortunately I cannot prove it, since theres no scoreboard

[torpid shuttle]

+1 cheat is not fun

[fierce gull]

cool grass

[torpid shuttle]

M-A-R-C-H​

[fierce gull]

February*

[wide violet]

R-E-F-U-N-D

[desert tartan]

Honest question yall... do yall think this game will really be fixed by the end of the year

[fierce gull]

no thanks imma stay with vtols and sexy casper

[torpid shuttle]

@wide violet 2042 = Fornite​

[wide violet]

2042 sucks, the shitty ps2 BF game was better

[plucky plaza]

define fixed, as in actual technical fixes such as bugs, or the gameplay and the overall game itself?

[silk shell]

gameplay is gonna stay how it is but i have faith theyll fix the majority of the bugs

[desert tartan]

gameplay and maps and stuff... im 100% sure theyll fix teh bugs and stuff

[fierce gull]

si

[plucky plaza]

I think AoW is unfixable in terms of that

[silk shell]

though then again i had a game earlier today where half the enemy team was invisible, vehicles were invisible, as well as my gadgets

[plucky plaza]

like the gameplay etc is already there, the maps can be fixed ig

[fierce gull]

gameplay can be improved

[desert tartan]

yeah its sad ...the vibes and amp design is kindof here... it would take too much work to fix that

[plucky plaza]

The fundamentals are already there, if they just fix the maps and bugs the game still isnt fixed, i remember Stodeh saying something similar as well and he said the only way to fix this game is by making Hazard Zone decent

[fierce gull]

Some dev said they will be adding mechanics like leaning to the game soon but that's probably at the bottom of their what to add list

[plucky plaza]

Even then though idk, the fundamentals and core of the game is already established, it basically eez what it eez

[desert tartan]

HZ i think is a lost cause

[plucky plaza]

If they put time into HZ, and possibly revamp it, i think theres hope

but thats a big if of course, but i think they rly should, coz Hazard Zone falls below my lowest expectations

[desert tartan]

EFT ...the whole game is based around it. Battlefield is tryna do everything at once so every mode suffers

[wide violet]

they need to go back to their roots

quit with all the bullshit gimmicks and trying to copy cod

[tired wolf]

going back to "their" roots? you mean releasing a modding SDK so the community can lead the franchise forward once again?

lol

[wide violet]

yup

they obviously cant do it themselves

[tired wolf]

apparently not lol

and the modding community gave DICE so many ideas for years to come.

[trim surge]

modding will save this disaster

but ea's pocket will be empty if modding is enabled

[silk shell]

when a large minority of players are on console, no, it wont

[tired wolf]

just make the base game better optimized, and rework movement so it doesn't feel like im swimming

then let us make mods so then DICE can use our ideas for full games

[trim surge]

good point

i have an idea

[tired wolf]

it's nuts to look back at 2003-2004 and realize if you had 2 games on your desktop, CS:Source/HL2 & Battlefield 1942, you really had like 20 games

[trim surge]

just pull the plug and call it a death

[wide violet]

battlefield is a PC game

[tired wolf]

I've thought about that a lot recently. After playing for 18 years, it would be sad to see the IP die, but at the same time, does DICE really have a monopoly on what Battlefield really is? answer is no. If another game came along that essentially was "Battlefield" but called something new I don't think I'd care

[silk shell]

thats why i said its a large minority on console, not majority. but remember that there is a very large portion of console players that need support too

[wide violet]

no they dont, once they got involved the gimmicks came

[silk shell]

what?

[wide violet]

only good gimmick was destruction in bc2

[tired wolf]

that was the 1st of many " 1-step forward, 2-steps back" in the Battlefield story imo

[trim surge]

yea if dice battlefield dies another one will be born

[daring pawn]

Guys, I played the 64 player lobby and it’s way better than the 128

[wide violet]

I firmly believe BF stopped being BF once consoles were involved.

[trim surge]

how long do you take to enter a match just curious

[tired wolf]

as soon as Bad Company came out, I was like ahhhh, okay i see what they're doin now. Battlefield 2: Modern Combat wasn't as bad because it was just a watered down version of Battlefield so I got the impression it wasn't a huge focus for them...just kind of throwing a bone to console players

[daring pawn]

I played the ps4 version and it actually had players, it didn’t take long at all

[wide violet]

100%

[tired wolf]

but Bad Company was trying to branch out to people who didn't play FPS games or games in general the same way that PC gamers did, and PC Gamers expectations

[tender trout]

Who wants to play battlefield 2042 (ps4 edition)

[wide violet]

but you have to remember we didnt get bc1 that was console only

[tired wolf]

our expectations were obviously higher, given what we had experience-wise. We had everything, and it felt like it was getting more and more advanced. Then the rollercoaster came to a stop to let the new people in, and ever since it's been a content-drip of features and mechanics that we all had back in 2004-2005.

[tired wolf]

Yea that too lol

[wide violet]

yup. why i say on here 2142 was the last good BF game

was the calm before the console storm

[trim surge]

why is ea/dice radio silent

[pliant knot]

well ofc they can't talk about the major changes and additions, its supposed to surprise the players and attract new ones

[trim surge]

where is the communication

[wide violet]

earnings call is soon

if they said one thing wrong or admited the game was shit rn stock price would plummet

[crude viper]

any game changes or still boring ?

like new vehicles or weapons

?

[trim surge]

do you know the status of the stock price rn just asking how i can know

[pliant knot]

still boring, new glitches btw, now people and vehicles become invisible

[crude viper]

sick bf4 is the best bf rn or 3

or still the best with 3 , ngl after bf1 just downhill

[barren crater]

BF1 is legit . awesome maps and immersion . Runs great .

2042 is terrible

[pliant knot]

google it

[barren crater]

an absolute dumpster fire

[silver lantern]

Bf1 puts the hair on my hair

[trim surge]

just did they took a minor hit but it's recognizable

[silver lantern]

Ngl
One small detail I like about 2042
You can see the trigger discipline

[pliant knot]

the what

[silver lantern]

Trigger discipline

[fierce gull]

Marketing skills
Classic dice

[dusky blade]

Imagine a battlefield game

Where specialists don’t exist

[trim surge]

i don't want to imagine i'm depressed

[silver lantern]

So bfv?

[fierce gull]

They want the people saying "Comeback of the year"

[dusky blade]

Well BFV sucked

[trim surge]

i want to transform into a trollge

[silver lantern]

Still had no specialists

[hollow lichen]

It's when a person keeps his finger off the trigger

[dusky blade]

True that

[marble orchid]

still the same game

[fierce gull]

I like specialists cuz there is a chance Recker is gonna be one of them 😳

[crude viper]

imagine dice / ea wouldnt be greedy like other companys , and being still like when they released bf4

[trim surge]

the next dlc is DO OR DIE

[dusky blade]

DLCs don’t exist anymore lol

[trim surge]

oh

[dusky blade]

It’s now updates

[silver lantern]

Season 1 should add seggs

Jk jk

[trim surge]

the next update is DO OR DIE

[dusky blade]

AGREED

[fierce gull]

How to get sued

[hollow lichen]

You could call them free DLCs either way

[next onyx]

I like specialists because of the personalities and things they bring to the table.

[silver lantern]

Dlc is just downloadable content
You download
Content

[trim surge]

they are technically not free but i get your point

[dusky blade]

But DLC’s are downloadable content

[next onyx]

Could use a bit of a balance adjustment such as making it so that angel cannot give out armour

[dusky blade]

And when people realise you PAY for the content you get, not making it free

[silver lantern]

Only good specialist is irish

[dusky blade]

That’s the day society falls

[pliant knot]

its funny, they could add everything they didn't add in the first place like scoreboard, global scoreboard, stadistics, etc, like the legacy feature and people would dare to call it "a comeback" but they forget those things should have been in the game when it launched

[hollow lichen]

I still think they should add the class system back

[fierce gull]

And Casper and dozer

[next onyx]

Patches with content are technically DLC

[trim surge]

i personally don't like their looks and prefer the generic soldier skins but what made helped me hate them were the cringe voicelines

[pliant knot]

agreed

[silver lantern]

Somehow he's no longer scared of heights

[dusky blade]

Not downloadable content, it’s a forced update

[trim surge]

i hope they remake those voicelines

[dusky blade]

You don’t download it

[next onyx]

You're still downloading it

[dusky blade]

Not in that sense

[fierce gull]

But you downloading it

[dusky blade]

If it was free dlc, you would go to the store, install it from there

[trim surge]

my old precious classes look how they massacared you

[dusky blade]

And it would be optional, dlc is about options

[next onyx]

To be honest tach I tune out at the end of the round cause I'm adjusted to it but I'm actually really glad we have voice lines in first person

[silver lantern]

Real specialists were assault,engineer,support and recon

[next onyx]

I remember that back at hardline and it was hilarious

[dusky blade]

AHEM NO

[silver lantern]

Or assault,medic,support and recon

[dusky blade]

Good

[fierce gull]

Casper looks better than recon

[silver lantern]

Which ever one

[pliant knot]

wdym

[hollow lichen]

I honestly prefer the Assault class from BF4/3 being a medic too

[fierce gull]

All the recon classes

[trim surge]

first person voicelines is a cool addition yea

[silver lantern]

Casper looks like a skin for recon class

[next onyx]

Rao in his concept art has a similar outfit too to Casper

[fierce gull]

In bf4 or whatever
Casper look sexier than them

[next onyx]

Not the same but same use

[trim surge]

is technically not a new feature tho right?

[pliant knot]

2042 proved specialists work like shit in large scale fps,

[fierce gull]

😳

[next onyx]

I love bf3 RU assault

[trim surge]

because they were paired with the Q system

[foggy tundra]

bring back titanmode

[dusky blade]

2042 proved specialists suck in battlefield

[foggy tundra]

😢

[daring pawn]

He do be sexy

[silver lantern]

YES

[pliant knot]

but its EA no shot they'll add classes to 2042

[silver lantern]

TITAN MODE
WITH THE FUCKING MECHS

[trim surge]

bf4 had a mode similar to that right?

[next onyx]

I like Mackay the most personally but eh

I'd main angel because armour is unbalanced

[foggy tundra]

it had a cheap 99 cent store knock off

[pliant knot]

and with the fact they want the next battlefield to be a hero shooter makes me feel sick about them

[daring pawn]

I think the next bf should be BF 3142

[trim surge]

titan mode was that big ship right?

[next onyx]

But I'm trying to play falck whenever I can be bothered for tier 1

[fierce gull]

I feel like they wanna earn that good comeback title like battlefront 2
We might see an update like that

[dusky blade]

The next battlefield is confirmed to be 2042 2 lol

[next onyx]

Carrier assault was a derived from titan assault

[silver lantern]

Titan mode was 2 big ass ships called titans
And you tried to destroy the enemy titan

[foggy tundra]

carrier assault was nowhere near the fucking beauty of titanmode OR titan assault

[hollow lichen]

I've just uninstalled 2042 for now

[daring pawn]

It takes place on Mars

[next onyx]

Similar modes but different themes

[fierce gull]

This can't be
So will Recker be in this game or in the next game?

[foggy tundra]

disgusting bf4 mode

[next onyx]

Carrier assault was good

[trim surge]

i heared the next battlefield name is battlefield universe or something like that

[dusky blade]

Vince zampella said so

[wide violet]

facts

[hollow lichen]

The new update hasn't convinced me at all

[dusky blade]

The guy who people said would save battlefield LMAO

[daring pawn]

There was an update?

[hollow lichen]

Yeah this month

[pliant knot]

but i mean they're different problems, main problem with battlefront 2 was monetization and star cards, in 2042 monetization isnt even a problem because there isnt any lol, so its a bit more hard to resolve but hey, maybe DICE manages to pull it out

[foggy tundra]

rn i just want titanmode, 128 man matches

[pliant knot]

or maybe they don't and get destroyed by EA

[foggy tundra]

the carnage

[dusky blade]

Star cards were awesome man

[trim surge]

i hope dice is radio silent because they are planning to plot twist and comeback the game and save it

[hollow lichen]

I understand that they're trying, but if it takes over 3 months for them to make a scoreboard then there is a problem

[daring pawn]

Ngl I didn’t even notice a difference. The last update that actually made a difference was the one that broke the game and kicked you out of the game

[foggy tundra]

i no longer get shreked by lil birds

[pliant knot]

yea yea but i meant how hard was to get them and leveling them when battlefornt 2 first launched

[foggy tundra]

fucking nightmares

[silver lantern]

Dying light 2 tho

[dusky blade]

You just progressed through the levels to get them

Play one match get cards

[hollow lichen]

Like c'mon man do a simplified scoreboard in literally 1 day or two

[pliant knot]

when battlefront 2 first launched?????

[trim surge]

i think they are trying to keep the scoreboard for the major update to fool stock holders

[hollow lichen]

I know the developers can easily make one

[hollow verge]

I imagine the lack of response from DICE is because theres a major upheaval in future plans going on right now

[dusky blade]

You always could

Lootboxes could just speed it up randomly

[hollow lichen]

So what's up?

[trim surge]

hopium

[hollow verge]

No, a Scoreboard is not simple at all

[foggy tundra]

the most limited resource currently

[hollow verge]

Anyone who says that has never worked in Frostbite lol
