battlefield-2042

[arctic grove]

nah its like actually with that iconic war hat and stuff

[fossil trench]

This was never fucking Fortnite

[prisma anvil]

DXR is allright..... Kinda not worth it rn.. sws has the better utlilty

[prisma anvil]

Just saying... I think I've got the union jack on two classes

[arctic grove]

ea and dice are appealing to that shitty demographic made up of 13 year olds now who will give them money for anything

[prisma anvil]

Ngl some the axis skins were quality

[arctic grove]

i still dont have union jacked unlocked, i think im using holy ghost

[prisma anvil]

Baron von Zorn was one of my favs

[arctic grove]

ilse is clean

that gas mask looks badass

[fossil trench]

It’s all because of some hipster dude that got a job telling suits what appeals to more people.

[prisma anvil]

I never bought elites .. mfw I now have like 6-8 of em

[arctic grove]

i wish i had misaki though when playing on japanese side

[fossil trench]

And those people literally get degrees in advertising and they all still don’t understand

[fossil trench]

Me neither. It’d be cool if they did short video showcases though

Like a short cinematic mo cap clip

[arctic grove]

what

[merry zodiac]

this game sucks

[mossy badge]

Sorry

[plush coyote]

[merry zodiac]

just speaking facts

[plush coyote]

[merry zodiac]

we need battlefield to get the MCC treatment

[arctic grove]

Thats such a piece of news

[plush coyote]

did you only just realise this game sucks?

[merry zodiac]

Battlefield 1942, 2142, 2, 3, 4, 1 and modern combat in one master chief collection esque package

[merry zodiac]

nope, I bitch about it regularly

[arctic grove]

Portal was supposed to be that, but it turned out to be just 2042 with old skins :/

[plush coyote]

oh sweet same lol

[arctic grove]

You should say how bad it is

Like hit reg

Or everyone is a doppelganger

[merry zodiac]

this game sucks so much ass that I'd honest to god rather play cod ghosts for 7 days straight than 1 match of 2042

[arctic grove]

That's more like it

[merry zodiac]

and everyone should go back to 3, 4 and 1

[arctic grove]

5 is also good

[dense terrace]

play what u like. smart

[arctic grove]

It's the less shitty version of 1942

[mossy badge]

Or CSGO valorant

[merry zodiac]

AND EA SHOULD STOP REGION LOCKING BATTLEFIELD 3 ON EA PLAY

[arctic grove]

Yes

[merry zodiac]

SERIOUSLY YOU CAN'T PLAY IT ANYWHERE BUT AMERICA ON PC

[tender pendant]

Rule 10 Do not harass users who express enjoyment for the franchise. You're free to express your opinion (positive or negative) in a constructive manner, however disrupting the chat and abusing users who have their personal views won't be tolerated. Constructive criticism & feedback is always encouraged, spreading toxicity while providing no useful, constructive feedback is not allowed. Our full stance on this type of conduct can be found here: #server-news message

[plush coyote]

[desert elbow]

In my opinion, I'd say BF5 is honestly in the top 5 Battlefields

[merry zodiac]

SO YOU'RE STUCK WITH BATTLEFIELD 3 360 PORT

[arctic grove]

Can't be done

[arctic grove]

Yes

[merry zodiac]

saying the game arguably sucks isn't harassment

[still vault]

@merry zodiac if you want to discuss previous Battlefield games #battlefield-legacy-titles is there for you.

[arctic grove]

Personaly bfv was my first battlefield

[arctic grove]

Rule 10, buddy, you better watch what you say

[merry zodiac]

I started with vietnam

[arctic grove]

So it feels nice

[dense terrace]

lol okay

[merry zodiac]

HAHAHAHAHA

[plush coyote]

https://tenor.com/view/heman-skeletor-evil-laugh-evil-smile-evil-grin-gif-18376753

[arctic grove]

We want to talk about how ea being greedy ruined 2042. And how there are so many missing features and variety from the older games.

[scenic tartan]

something tells me these guys are up to no good

[merry zodiac]

I needed that laugh

[desert elbow]

Missing features? What Battlefield game doesn't have missing features? They change their style often

[arctic grove]

The feature of classes and destructive environment

[still vault]

@arctic grove yeah harassment of anyone, including the mods, wont be tolerated on this server

[arctic grove]

You really muted the guy. Come on, Carbon, wtf

I'm not muted

[scenic tartan]

https://tenor.com/view/kermit-darkside-star-wars-evil-innerme-gif-13048146

[ionic adder]

Lol have you played the game

[still vault]

I still think 2042 would benefit heavily from getting Battlelog back, but I actually don't miss the scoreboard or the server browser for casual play (only organized play).

[mossy badge]

He don't need to play it what's the point if developers keeps on repeating mistakes from past and not learning from it continuously broken launches

[desert elbow]

2042 Has destruction

[arctic grove]

What if a person wants to casually choose a map he wants to play?

[mossy badge]

I feel like lots of Battlefield has destruction

[desert elbow]

Yeah but every 2 games since BC1 they've changed their style, nothing new. Each rendition has new & removed features

It's a pattern, BC1 / BC2, BF3 / BF4 and BF1 / BF5

[ionic adder]

Change in style and removing fundamental features are not the same

[mossy badge]

Features that very few appreciate are in the game and features that everyone wanted aren't

[desert elbow]

They removed fundamental features in all of those games

[marble cradle]

World War 3 free to play , the true Battlefield .

[ionic adder]

They have not, stop talking from your ass buddy.

[still vault]

I have not had that need in 2042 as I appreciate playing all the maps more than instead just playing the 2 most popular ones all the time. But I understand why some people like it.

[arctic grove]

That didn't make them any better

[desert elbow]

They literally have, for starters all of those games had a different class system from classic BF, which I'd say is a core feature

[desert elbow]

They did, BF1 wouldn't make much sense with an AT role for example since there's only 2 AT guns in the game

[ionic adder]

The class system has been more or less the same until 2042

[arctic grove]

You're really good at picking out stuff that matters the least

[desert elbow]

There used to be 7

[desert elbow]

Classes are literally a core feature, like you claim

[still vault]

Battlefield 1 took away Battlelog which I considered a core feature. A good example of how what systems are core is not shared between the whole community. It makes sense, the franchise is almost 20 years old and a lot has changed in that time.

[marble cradle]

Lets play World War 3 boys

[ionic adder]

And now you have 0

[still vault]

Move that to #other-games

[desert elbow]

Portal

[ionic adder]

Dude

[arctic grove]

How did having no jets, strafe sprinting or supply drops help BC2?

[desert elbow]

Some people wanted a more streamlined yet detailed gameplay loop, why do you think so many people praise it?

Not to mention the destruction helped it

[prisma anvil]

All things point to them basically slowly switching bf into the cod short lifespan sort of direction.... That's just the truth....

[humble rampart]

Guys can someone help me ?
I have a friend he plays on the new Xbox. His Xbox name and Ingame Name is "Kostkana8291". He bought Battlefield to play with me cross play. I have my Battlefield on PC.
I can play every day play with xbox or PSN Strangers . But when i want to play with him, i cant find him and add him....

[ionic adder]

Does he have crossplay enabled

[humble rampart]

Yes we have both

[desert elbow]

By increasing the player count and map size?

[arctic grove]

They praise it for campaign and the destruction you mentioned, everything else was dumbed down from previous games

[desert elbow]

Open Arica Harbor in 2042, the destruction is literally better than bc2

[arctic grove]

oh and of course Rush mode, because we love big pew pew in very condensed areas which is so Battlefield-like

[rancid umbra]

anyone here have suggestion for fixing fps? last week i had a solid 60 fps. and the few days its just horrible, and no matter what settings cpu/gpu stay the same (under 50%) but framerates are all over.

[prisma anvil]

Pure matchmaking(portal doesn't count yet), no server rotation, lack of persistent lobbies(combine that with 24/7 paid servers), lack of clans and platoons, limited squad control, reduced abilty to play with friends, a few other things too

[ionic adder]

Siem is just trolling or going through some serious coping psychosis

[arctic grove]

i dont particularly like bc2

[prisma anvil]

The server browser and strict matchmaking itself ensures that this game will not live as long as the past games...

[arctic grove]

and i dont know why people praise it as the best bf

i dont know what makes it better than bf4 or bf1 per se

[rancid umbra]

yeah it definitly aint the best. it does have some nice moments tho. should definitely have an achievement for playing the settings minigame too

[mossy badge]

Bad company 2 field of view 🤮

[worn whale]

I’m a battlefield veteran and this game is the only battlefield that makes me feel ashamed of being a fan of it, worst part is EA and dice aren’t even apologizing, nor listening to the community demands, like hell how can you forget to add a scoreboard!?

[mossy badge]

Battlefield veteran 😂😂😂😂

[worn whale]

https://tenor.com/view/what-about-it-curtis-payne-tyler-perrys-house-of-payne-so-what-and-gif-19167305

[mossy badge]

It's sooooooooo cringe when someone say I am Battlefield veteran

[dense terrace]

tons of us feel similar way

[mossy badge]

I am sorry still

[arctic grove]

it means they have been playing for a long time

[dense terrace]

cringe wasnt a word when we became battlefield veterans

[mossy badge]

Ohhhh thank you for telling me ❤️

[arctic grove]

overusing cringe is kinda well... cringe

[worn whale]

Oh right, let me use the long sentence! I was a battlefield fan since battlefield bad company, I grew up with this franchise.

[arctic grove]

watch the specialists use the word cringe later on

[plush hull]

I'm a proud BATTLEFIELD VETERAN! I guess that's too cringe.

[arctic grove]

"i just absolutely dunked on these kids, sheeesh so cringe man"

[prisma anvil]

When's the "uwu XD nuzzles rawr" specialist coming out?

[arctic grove]

thats a future specialist quip at the end of the game

[plush hull]

Lol

[worn whale]

Angel should have the perk to steal mags from the friendlies pockets

[arctic grove]

i swear thats the demographic they are appealing to

[prisma anvil]

Voice packs for 5.99$ a pop

Less gooo...

[plush hull]

I agree

[arctic grove]

i instantly recognized that emote

hayasaka best girl

[prisma anvil]

Hayasaka ftw brother

[worn whale]

Hayasaka best girl

[arctic grove]

Actually not a bad idea, but you can't trust current DICE with it

[plush hull]

Anyone gaming soon?

[mossy badge]

I hope dice apologize and send you a medal 🥇 for being Battlefield veteran

[arctic grove]

now just patiently waiting for kaguya sama season 3

[worn whale]

I just need my money back lmao

[arctic grove]

isnt it coming out in like a few months?

[worn whale]

Paid 110$ to early play the beta

[mossy badge]

If you played it more than 2 hours then I hope you never get your money back

[arctic grove]

at least that fits in overwatch because dva is an actual ex pro

[plush hull]

Just be sure not to share it with dududu. Lol

[worn whale]

I spent 2 hours trying to make the game run smooth

[arctic grove]

and the game isnt based on the premise of serious war

[rancid umbra]

haha yeah a medal worth 100bucks would do nicely😎

[arctic grove]

and it doesnt take itself too seriously

[prisma anvil]

I wouldn't be surprised if they add it here

[mossy badge]

We 3 can have pizza 🍕 with that money

[worn whale]

Honestly I’m sticking to modern warfare 2

At least they deliver a lot more content on launch.

[prisma anvil]

Fucking sad how it would be surprising if they actually started changing bf to resemble more like bf, but not surprising if they add shit like that....

[mossy badge]

Don't keep your expectations tooo high trust me

[plush hull]

Well, now that you mentioned it. Lol

[arctic grove]

sundance be like "was that all? im ready for round 2 winky face"

[prisma anvil]

Paik starts saying uwu

[rancid umbra]

honestly last week i was enjoying bf. thinkin about intalling modern warfare again. this game is just frustrating that its so inconsistant.

[prisma anvil]

Or better yet... Angel starts saying uwu

[arctic grove]

"hahaha did i go too far?"

[mossy badge]

Uwu is another most cringiest thing I have ever heard and second Ara ara

[plush hull]

What's up with the non-voice chat while gaming anyways?

[arctic grove]

my god what were the devs thinking recording these voice lines

[prisma anvil]

Get the falck Ara ara voice pack for 9.99$

[worn whale]

What is going through their minds lmao

Idk how you can write such thing, tell the voice actor to say it out loud, think about it, and go like “yeah this is amazing put it in the game”

[plush hull]

I think it's dumb that they took the voice feature out...

[arctic grove]

VO Director: This is fuckin trash, daug. Is this really what people like nowadays?
Marketing: Dude, trust me

[mossy badge]

Reminds me of ghosts snoop Dogg announcer voice pack

[prisma anvil]

Talking to people is toxic...

[worn whale]

No one is talking in VC’s anyways

It’s not like cod, when there are arguments like all the damn time

[arctic grove]

dice meeting be like:
"so uh what ideas do you have for 2042?"
"how about cringeworthy extremely monetizable specialists with cheesy voice lines in order to appeal to the most profitable demographic?"
"GREAT IDEA, everyone get your asses up and get to work"

[prisma anvil]

I can't blare deep fried memes through voice chat anymore

[plush hull]

Anti- social? Lol

[worn whale]

“Let’s make the game for kids”

[mossy badge]

Game made for fanboys

[plush hull]

So voice chat is for arguments vice communication these days?

[mossy badge]

And can't even appeal them

[arctic grove]

there is no excuse for no voice chat

[mossy badge]

Few exceptions

[prisma anvil]

People calling you trash is hard for a lot of people to get over .... It's mentally tiring and promotes negative behaviours or some shit I think...

[worn whale]

I don’t know really, but in all my hours playing battlefield games it’s very rare to see people talk.

[arctic grove]

lmao people who take it at face value should really go to a therapist

[plush hull]

Ignore them or mute. There are many ways to handle those kind of things besides letting it sink in you.

[plush hull]

Exactly

[prisma anvil]

Idk, never had anything like that... Correction... Only had that once..... Still managed to adapt and just kept that guy and the squad alive... Guy even thanked me at the end and apologized

[arctic grove]

like online gaming isnt for you

[plush hull]

The feature is not on this battlefield.

[arctic grove]

if your feelings are seriously hurt by some dude telling you you are bad

like go play singleplayer or sth

toxicity is an inevitable and integral aspect of online gaming, if you cant cope with it then get out

[plush hull]

Yeah. Gaming is all about getting in someone heads sometimes to disturb skills.

[prisma anvil]

Or just turn it off... But don't take it out entirely

[mossy badge]

Woahhhh if you put it that way people play video games to chill have a good time and then someone calls you trash and in school your day was already ruined I get what you saying

[plush hull]

Yeah, but now you can't communicate to your team.

[prisma anvil]

Nothing wrong with people not wanting to go through that.... I get it.... But why screw over people like me who want to use it

[worn whale]

It will be, soon™️

[arctic grove]

just leave it in and just allow people to mute others not hard really 🤦‍♂️

[fossil trench]

Lol toxicity shouldn’t just be a “fact of life” in gaming. People being stupid deserve a ban.

[plush hull]

Yep

[arctic grove]

its just how human beings work

toxicity is inevitable and you cant eliminate it

[prisma anvil]

Again... Have it in, but allow to turn it off... Hell, start with it turned off and allow us to turn it on

[arctic grove]

learn to live with it or get out if you cant cope with it

[arctic grove]

DICE never promoted voice comms properly. Just look at Squad, which is essentially the same game. EVERYONE has a mic in there, mutes are the rare exceptions

[plush hull]

Sounds like gaming may be too much for you.

[plush hull]

That's ludacris...

[arctic grove]

not saying that dice shouldnt take steps to prevent toxicity

[prisma anvil]

Idk, life in general sounds hard for them....

[fossil trench]

No shit but you’re acting like “you’re not a true gamer if you don’t experience MW2 lobbies” like bro 💀

[plush hull]

Why would we have to turn it on?

[outer anchor]

will there ever be community servers for bf2042?

[arctic grove]

but going as far as to censor every second word in all chat (like in bfv) or removing it ENTIRELY as well as also removing the scoreboard and voip is just absolutely dumbfounded

[worn whale]

I mean, most people in squad are too scared to talk lol, I’m mostly a squad leader so I have to talk with a bunch of silent teammates

[prisma anvil]

Just saying.....all the reducing toxicity crap...... If you wanna do it fine.... But atleast give us other folk the option to use it

[arctic grove]

Most likely not, Portal is the best option you've got

[worn whale]

It’s funny actually, they can’t argue back if you give them an order lol, they just do what you told them to do

[arctic grove]

yes leave everything in and implement settings that can help reduce toxicity if your feelings are that fragile

[plush hull]

No no no. What I'm saying is if you don't want to socialize, then you go out the way to turn off the feature.

[arctic grove]

forcibly imposing censorship on everybody is not the right way to go about things

[fossil trench]

That’s totally different. That’s just corporate BS. Happens with everything. But man, anything actually toxic I’m for going against.

[prisma anvil]

Yeah.... Either way..... First on you can turn off, or first off you can turn on, either one works ... Second one would lead to less instances of "toxicity" but still ensures the thing being there

[arctic grove]

learn to live with it, you wont be able to 100% avoid toxicity

[mossy badge]

I never heard a single voice of human speaking in Battlefield games there is never seriously never a callouts from anyone and people care about voip when this game crashes all the time and optimization is garbage

[arctic grove]

its just an integral part of online gaming

[prisma anvil]

Hell, pretty sure when the vc integration happens, it's gonna be the second one.... Off at first but you can turn it on

[arctic grove]

and dont take anything said online at face value

[plush hull]

Yeah, well toxicity is all through life. Carry your antidote(hard skin) at all times.

[fossil trench]

Lmao I do learn to live with it. I have lived through it. Stop assuming everyone is a child. Maybe some of us want to just play a game without receiving death threats 💀

[plush hull]

I mean I'm not the best at some games and I get called out on it, but I still sleep like a baby at night.

[arctic grove]

wait you recieving death threats 💀💀

[mossy badge]

See if you take it that way games prepare you to become stronger for this cruel world we live in 👍

[fossil trench]

Wtf do you think toxic means?

[arctic grove]

i mean i do recieve some on bfv when i get accused of cheating and its funny

[prisma anvil]

I know.... One of the reasons why this doesn't resonate with me.... Might be my own experiences, but you have to encounter things like this to learn valid skills in real life.... How to reduce arguments, misdirection, changing conversation points, or hell, just developing a thick skin...

[plush hull]

Exactly! Facts!

[lone wren]

PP-29 decent SMG

[mossy badge]

👀

[arctic grove]

You don't get it, death threats and shit talking is the whole point of vc

[plush hull]

See? Look at this... Someone is not using antidote. Lol

[arctic grove]

death threats are a bit far but they can be funny

when that person is really mad at you

[prisma anvil]

Maybe not the death threats part... But meh.... Your mum jokes, general banter.... That's what vc is for

[plush hull]

Maybe it's death threats in the game. Lol

[arctic grove]

literally thats what vc is all about

[mossy badge]

I already got two warning in under 2 minutes sooooooooo I can't say much

[summer lake]

Finally got 2042, only nitpicks are Bolt users spawn camping on breakthrough and DM7 feels like it doesn’t do damage also fuck AC-42

[arctic grove]

if bf had proximity chat it would be so good

but then i would hear 20 13 year olds screaming at me the whole time...

[plush hull]

Uh oh! Hahaha

[prisma anvil]

Still remember a guy who'd play the bruh sound effect when anyone in the squad fucked up.... Shit was hilarious

[fossil trench]

Dude death threats, dox threats, ddos threats are a daily occurrence in a ton of game communities. I always have chat muted but not because I can’t handle the toxic but because it’s cringe and annoying.

[arctic grove]

bfv all chat is a warzone

its so damn funny

[plush hull]

Do you have a mic?

[arctic grove]

seeing all those people get absolutely mad at me

[prisma anvil]

Some could even call it...... A battlefield ..... I'll show myself out now

[fossil trench]

I own a PS5. Mic is literally in the controller lol

[arctic grove]

i still dont understand why all chat is forcibly censored in bfv?

[plush hull]

Have a good day. Don't forget your antidote!

[prisma anvil]

[plush hull]

Yes. I'm aware. I own one as well. Lol

[arctic grove]

That's right, because devs would forget to add mute option, and later they'll call it a legacy feature and tell you how brutal you are for expecting something like that in the game

[mossy badge]

Play BATTLEFIELD 2042 and secure future of next generation of children

[prisma anvil]

Probably cuz of racist/derogatory shit

Some of the censors don't make sense

[arctic grove]

im absolutely brutal for expecting a scoreboard which shows everybodys kills and deaths and hurting peoples fragile feelings and egos as a result

[plush hull]

Man. That is old news.

[plush hull]

Heck! Wanna join me? Hahaha

[arctic grove]

i wish i was joking but the word "aimbot" is censored

[prisma anvil]

Just saying ... Censoring shit and fuck in a mature gory fps game just don't make sense to me

[knotty iron]

what is paying a E-girl to play games with you compared to?

[arctic grove]

like no actually fucking AIMBOT is censored

[mossy badge]

I never thought it is actually next gen game

[arctic grove]

like i said, rated M for immature

[arctic grove]

GTA Online chat has the word "rockstar" censored. Take it as you will :p

[plush hull]

Are you not reading this chat? Hahaha

[prisma anvil]

What in the fuckum buckums....

[mossy badge]

I am reading everything

[plush hull]

Hahaha. That was pretty funny. Good point though!

[knotty iron]

gta VI is coming, what would you like to see on that game?

[plush hull]

Are you laughing already? Haha

[arctic grove]

so guys you wanna point a cheater out on bfv? too bad because we at dice have censored the words "aimbot" and "wallhack"

[prisma anvil]

A damn good story akin to gta4 for a start

[arctic grove]

"Video game company ******** is the best one the whole world!"

[knotty iron]

san andreas is the best story

[plush hull]

At least it ain't COD will all that crazy wall running and stuff.

[arctic grove]

huh? that shit was 4 years ago

[mossy badge]

Tbh rainbow six siege community 😂😂😂😂 is crazy sometimes sometimes you will see warning sign on every player who team killed

[prisma anvil]

Yet

[arctic grove]

cod hasnt done jetpacks in ages

[plush hull]

Haven't played COD since then, so I don't keep up with it.

[mossy badge]

Infinite warfare 🤣🤣🤣

[arctic grove]

im pretty sure there hasnt been a cod with jetpacks since infinite warfare which came out in 2016

[prisma anvil]

Infinity wardfare

[fossil trench]

I wish EA would just drop all support for BF2042, issue refunds for people with gold/ultimate, ghost the community for 3 years, then make a good BF game

[arctic grove]

rumor has it that ea is looking to relegate dice stockholm to the position of a supporting studio

[fossil trench]

Like playing BF2042 just makes me depressed because of how unfinished it is

[prisma anvil]

I'd rather they actually show us that fixes akin to bf4 is still possible in this day and age.... Take a solid year, year and a half to improve near everything about 2042

[arctic grove]

and ripple effect (dice la) is gonna be the head studio

[outer anchor]

how to fix the bug when you revive someone and you cant jump anymore?

[plush hull]

I'm just waiting for the updates to come along.

[plush hull]

Oh hell naw! Hahaha

[arctic grove]

good luck waiting a whole month for the scoreboard and voip update (i cant believe im saying this)

[mossy badge]

Dude you are playing the most next gen game how can you say that

[prisma anvil]

Let's see what march has in store for us

[plush hull]

Yesterday, I couldn't aim down my scope.😅

[gloomy condor]

Dropping support wil never be a solution. Cant make a new 1 if you cant fix the old.

[prisma anvil]

Tell that to bfV

[mossy badge]

That's some next gen feature

[gloomy condor]

I believe game can turn out good. Its just the wait that takes much patience

[plush hull]

Man, I almost went to GameStop to trade this game in. Lol

[prisma anvil]

Ads'ing is a legacy feature

[arctic grove]

ea truly went the next gen route by downgrading everything

[plush hull]

Yeah. That's what I'm hoping

[mossy badge]

👀 GameStop

[gloomy condor]

Evry game seems to have its problems. Maybe games get to dificult for the devs?

[arctic grove]

That's what EA is expecting from them if you listen to their last investors call

[knotty iron]

nah they just lazy

[arctic grove]

thats just the usual corporate bullshit

[prisma anvil]

And I hope that comes to pass...

[mossy badge]

Tell me the most next gen game in your opinion

[arctic grove]

ea and dice cant be trusted to do ANYTHING at this point and you expect them to fix the whole game?

[plush hull]

Not pointing fingers, but I believe people are getting lazy on the developing side of things.

[arctic grove]

They never said anything like that about Anthem, so I don't know

they cant even add a fucking scoreboard and voip for gods sake

[prisma anvil]

If 2042 is dropped( high likelyhood in the next year)... I'm outie....

Gonna try to hit plat again on siege or something

[mossy badge]

You must have seen warning or team kill sign on every player in siege 👀

[fossil trench]

I’ve seen multiple times how every BF entry always eventually ends up being a good game, but I am absolutely 100% convinced that this game is unsalvageable. Like deadass, just start over

[arctic grove]

im just playing bfv and osu nowadays

[prisma anvil]

Yes... Red triangles

[arctic grove]

you are right, it is unsalvageable because of the absolutely audacious design decisions

[fossil trench]

Core mechanics fundamentally flawed

[arctic grove]

you cant make 2042 truly good without revamping the ENTIRE game

[knotty iron]

just play bf1 or bv5, leave 2042 be

[rancid umbra]

anyone tried crossfirex?

[arctic grove]

oh i am enjoying bfv

it even has more players than 2042 haha

[mossy badge]

It's sooooooooo toxic man seriously CSGO siege valorant 🤣🤣🤣

[knotty iron]

bf1 best

[arctic grove]

completely worth it imo

[prisma anvil]

Ehhh... It's part of the experience

[gloomy condor]

Gotta have a litle faith tho peaple. I like to be optimistic. Already enoug negativ engergy around. Like the game has also good things lol

[knotty iron]

anyone plays csgo?

[arctic grove]

like

[knotty iron]

bruh, cs go has 500.000 ppl playing daily

[arctic grove]

because im struggling to find anything positive to say about the game

[arctic grove]

2042 has good things? Breaking news, everyone
Tell us bout it

[mossy badge]

I wonder if these kids actually got send to do special operations these guys will kill their own team instead

[arctic grove]

also have you guys noticed how the game cover has flying containers and naval ships? lmfao

[fossil trench]

This game is just so unfinished. Suits rushing development and wondering what they did wrong when their game ends up dead. 💀

[prisma anvil]

Like they'd ever pass basic

[mossy badge]

Game is made for next generation of kids

[arctic grove]

Poor kids

this game is made from the ground up for the gen z fortnite kids

So sorry for them

actually gen alpha

[fossil trench]

BF2042 had a very ambitious premise. 2 years more of development and different game director and they would’ve made the best BF game ever

[arctic grove]

im pretty sure 70% of us here are gen z

i think when we talk about gen z in the sense of fortnite kids we are referring to gen alpha

[mossy badge]

Dude I thought that I can destroy the entire hourglass buildings and kaleidoscope buildings man is this what they call brutal expectations ?

[arctic grove]

which consists of people born in the 2010s

[knotty iron]

in an alternate universe, bf 2042 is a great game with no bugs

[arctic grove]

i wonder if we will ever prove that parallel universes exist

[prisma anvil]

I mean.... By the end of 2042's cycle....we'll probably be right where the game should've been at launch, so we'll know then I guess

[knotty iron]

that was somesing vight?

[spice maple]

I bought bf2042 a week ago,but I don't downloaded until now

[arctic grove]

im not overconfident, im just better than everyone else

[knotty iron]

get refuuuund

[arctic grove]

Feel robbed yet?

[prisma anvil]

Steam?

[fossil trench]

BF2042 is alright tbh. Just immensely unimpressive and disappointing

[knotty iron]

you are still in time

[spice maple]

Nope,epic

[gloomy condor]

What if they fix evrything and fine tune specialists? Would it make most of you come back or ? Make the maps beter more battlefield like . Add al the stuf they need to. Difrent theme music in menu that hypes you up. Just curios.

[arctic grove]

i mean its an alright game if you have never played a bf in your life i guess

[prisma anvil]

Ahhh.... Look up their return policies before downloading and playing.... Game is pretty polarizing..

Nothing wrong with being a bit cautious

[knotty iron]

its probably gonna be free in next months

[mossy badge]

Nobody said that cringe line yet what was it this is how it works out sometimes and don't be sad

[arctic grove]

Yes, all of it and more

[spice maple]

I think so

[prisma anvil]

My bet is, game will gro free if S1 and S2 flop

[knotty iron]

ita?

[weak umbra]

Bf2042 is dry asf so is halo rn they both need big content drops

[mossy badge]

Maybe in epic games just like STARWARS BATTLEFRONT II

[fossil trench]

It’s a playable BF game. It’s average. Just super mediocre and uninspiring.

[prisma anvil]

Which is actually saddening

[gloomy condor]

Like if gta 6 comes out and its full of bugs. Than i think the game crisis isnt ending soon lol. Rockstar stil seems to be 1 of the games with the least bugs.

[fiery solar]

unless dice makes the ultimate play with futuristic shanghai

[arctic grove]

in fact it is uninspired

[knotty iron]

no rockstar polish the games at its finest

[prisma anvil]

Like about 60% of the decisions made were so blatantly, obviously bad, any gamer without a analyst/business degree could point it out..

[arctic grove]

because dice just shamelessly copied mw19

[knotty iron]

thats why they take a decade to make a new gta

[fiery solar]

but like abandoned since china isnt anywhere to be found in this game

[spice maple]

I think i waste the voucher

[gloomy condor]

Haha yeah true gotta love rockstar!

[prisma anvil]

You already have futuristic Shanghai, it's called kaliedoscope... Welcome to pain

[arctic grove]

if they put anything related to china in the game it will get banned there

this happened with bf4 which got banned in china

[fiery solar]

i see this as a win no more hackers

[gloomy condor]

Anyone here hoping on return of operation locker or metro? I realy like to get away from vehicles once in a while!

[fiery solar]

firestorm 128 players >

[arctic grove]

has portal been updated once since launch?

lmfao

[prisma anvil]

There probably will be an infantry only map, but no fecking clue when that will be

[fiery solar]

[tame vine]

same, tired of all the open maps, really takes away most of the action

[fiery solar]

orbital being the least bad map imo now

[arctic grove]

General bug fixes and balance, nothin else

[prisma anvil]

Think they updated the portal xp thingy

[gloomy condor]

Yeah i am fine with a new 1 as long as i can escape from vehicles for a bit .

[prisma anvil]

Inb5 they allow you to call down "transport" vehicles like the bolte, latv4 and hovercrafts on that map

[arctic grove]

XP should be completely unrestricted imo, they pay too much attention to it

[dusky blade]

They pay attention for a reason....

[fiery solar]

its not like ranks even get you shit

[arctic grove]

oh boy you didnt see what happened at launch

[dusky blade]

They do

[prisma anvil]

I mean.... In portal, bots don't give you xp.... You want bot xp?... Go to solo-coop which should have a altered bot xp gain thingy.... That's how they should've done it imo

[fiery solar]

but skins and more of the 12 weapons🥺

[arctic grove]

What reason? That you'll get your weapons unlocked sooner than 100+ hours?

[arctic grove]

xp farming but dice made their own official xp farm anyways later on

Oh what a tragedy, people getting what they paid for sooner than we want them too

like did they really not think people would farm this stupid zombie game mode?

[empty bloom]

No

[prisma anvil]

Apparently not

[fiery solar]

dice after adding 7 different weapons and letting you unlock 1 attachment for them every 60 levels

[prisma anvil]

Slipped past their keen eyes

[arctic grove]

how does this even slip through playtesting

[nimble steppe]

FANCY YOUUUU UUU

[rancid umbra]

i think the xp should be a bonus for playing what part of the game is enjoyable. like an ultimate edition perk

[fiery solar]

how does anything here slip through building the game

[arctic grove]

Ew

[rugged citrus]

if you wanna farm attachments / unlocks for vehicles just do it against bots

[arctic grove]

Hi I'm here for Halo, is this the right place?

[fiery solar]

ew did you just pay to win

ugh what the fuck diude

[rugged citrus]

GET OUTTA HERE MOBILE GAMER

[arctic grove]

Speak up child

[fiery solar]

i love how GTA 5 being a massive open world game (released 2013)still has tanks roll over vehicles like a fucking movie

even when tanks play no roll in any GTA 5 mission except maybe perhaps 2

[desert elbow]

None of those are features which Battlefield or COD for that matter are known for, plus hardly effect gameplay

[viscid thicket]

2042 is shit

[knotty iron]

cant disagree more

[viscid thicket]

dont waste your money on call of duty developers in EA team lmfao

[radiant echo]

👀

[viscid thicket]

BF3 still da king

[rancid umbra]

pay too win? no. xp for guns playing a game that is incomplete anyways, maybe. The reward being a fkn skin !! its a faulty game and if mowing down bots gives xp why not.

[arctic grove]

battlefield is RENOWNED for its staple server browser and persistent lobbies

[rugged citrus]

faulty? bugs are not as common as you think now after all the patches, plus mowing bots dont give XP

[grizzled whale]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XVEmpTWV7Mw god this is gold

[arctic grove]

its literally an aspect of battlefields identity

[viscid thicket]

Battlefield bad company... 3-4-1 were the greatest all after is garbage devlopment team

[fiery solar]

damn dice you saw what happened to hardline when you wanted to change battlefield

[desert elbow]

Imma be honest, people don't think of a server browser whenever battlefield is mentioned, although I would've definitely preferred having one

[knotty iron]

what a time to be alivee, meanwhile surrounded by death...

[viscid thicket]

lmfao

[prisma anvil]

Cod is known for disbanding lobbies, matchmaking, lack of a rotation... Plus the reason why bf games stay relevant after their life cycles is rotation, browser and or community servers(to a lesser extent now)

[viscid thicket]

Hardline my brains hurt already thinking back bout it

[desert elbow]

Cod definitely isn't known for that, with the exception of matchmaking

[prisma anvil]

It's the main reason why bf4 is still populated to this day (also cuz it's a damn good game)

[viscid thicket]

Man, where those olschool developers at from battlefield we never liked call of duty anyways

quick scoping without recoil like wthf is this sht

[desert elbow]

Battlefront 2 is populated without a server browser, another good game

[fiery solar]

battlefield 2042* just sucks that much

[viscid thicket]

nahh oldschool battlefield remains the king

even cyberpunk can't optimise better then 10 year old game

[fiery solar]

BC2 is free with gamepass on pc already have it installed

[arctic grove]

i cant think of any other mainstream fps having a proper server browser like battlefield

its literally an integral part of battlefields sandbox

[empty bloom]

what 🤦🏻‍♀️

[rancid umbra]

im playin the game right now. the graphics are literally completely different evertime i play. now my framerate is 60 im happy its fine, yesterday was not. tomorrow probably not either. the game resets my loadout in between matches, does not listen to graphics settings.

[arctic grove]

its part of the player freedom battlefield grants

[median tree]

Yo

[rugged citrus]

https://tenor.com/view/unlucky-lucas-gif-9921565

[viscid thicket]

Old battlefields look better then your facepalm

[empty bloom]

thank you

[median tree]

Is it possible to get PlayStation trophies from bf2042 in the bot modes?

[rugged citrus]

optimisation and content and design decisions are the real isuses

[arctic grove]

I'd like to see you try playing that or 2042 with 4 friends

[arctic grove]

and the bugs and bugs and bugs

[median tree]

Or just multiplayer

[prisma anvil]

Does battlefront 2 have a region select?

[desert elbow]

Can be done easily

[viscid thicket]

What most people play now from EA?

[desert elbow]

Yep

[arctic grove]

How? Squads are limited to 4

[rugged citrus]

bugs aint a problem ever since update 3.2, bugs are not that common now, play it for a hour or two and you'll see, there is still some bugs but its at an acceptable amount

[arctic grove]

there you go you contradicted yourself

[desert elbow]

You can still join the same game, it'll just place them into a random squad

[median tree]

Ayo can someone answer me just yes, no or idk

[viscid thicket]

dont u dare to defend shitty game

[arctic grove]

How is that good?

just accept reality and the fact that the lack of a server browser is absolutely inexcusable

[empty bloom]

No you plebeian

[rugged citrus]

im not defending, im just saying bugs aint an issue now, legacy features, optimisation and content and design decisions are the actual problems

[viscid thicket]

Yes thats actual fact

[arctic grove]

the server browser is part of battlefields identity, if you dont think that then you dont know what battlefield is about

[median tree]

Is that a no to my question or a no to saying I won’t answer you lmao

[prisma anvil]

2042 doesn't....Does swbf2 have a map rotation

[empty bloom]

No to your question

[median tree]

Rip

Ain’t gettin the platinum then

[viscid thicket]

Anyways you like a good schooting game in pre-launch ready or not does better thn 2042 have fun guys

[median tree]

Too hard for a noob like me

[desert elbow]

What more would u want?

[fiery solar]

it should be possible

[arctic grove]

One more slot in the squad? or is it too brutal to ask?

[arctic grove]

oh boy the copium is truly kicking in

[fiery solar]

i havent played more than 10 rounds total of AOW only solo w bots and got 18 achievements cause i still cant play the game

[prisma anvil]

5 would be an odd number,... 64 is a odd number to divide easily... You're either looking at 4 or 8

[rugged citrus]

simply put about bf2042: more copium you have for it, the better the game

[torpid shuttle]

Hello there

[rugged citrus]

+1

[arctic grove]

first stage of grief: denial

seems like the fanboys are stuck in that stage

[torpid shuttle]

You can

[median tree]

Rlly?

[dusky blade]

Did the grief stages thing even happened with 2042

[arctic grove]

Whatever issues people talk about in here, this guy always finds excuses for them

Siem "That will do" Spud

[fierce gull]

Quick maths

[rugged citrus]

im having fun with the game and im not angry with the issues, im quite content

[arctic grove]

the bots act as substitutes for real players so yes

[dusky blade]

I went straight to saying battlefield is over for

[median tree]

Some trophies are a joke like get 7 kills with dozers shield in the same match

[rancid umbra]

correct. but the game might not perform consistantly enough to be able to judge what content will work. to then be balanced.

[prisma anvil]

3+1 is 4, +4 is 8, quick maths

[torpid shuttle]

I did some of achievement in portal mode and it's work. But it's long time ago.

[median tree]

Or deal 2500 damage with boris turret in the same match

[torpid shuttle]

Hardest achievement.

[median tree]

Are there servers dedicated to trophy hunting

Those sure would be helpful

[rugged citrus]

camp in the tunnels in orbital

[torpid shuttle]

You can create your own and shoot bot.

[torpid shuttle]

Oh...

[median tree]

[rugged citrus]

the tunnel between d1 and d2, put a sentry there and sit near it, ezzz kills

[median tree]

I’m actually going to do that see if it works

[arctic grove]

Metro 2042 lol

[median tree]

If it does I’ll consider you a living god

[torpid shuttle]

Ok

[arctic grove]

i wonder why he/she is so silent now

[torpid shuttle]

By the way. Is Battlefield good as BF2 or BF3 yet?

[fierce gull]

You guys want one more slot for squads?

Brb gonna ask dice to increase 128 players

[umbral island]

1942 remastered when

[prisma anvil]

@desert elbow if we talk about pure matchmaking and lack of a region select, siege rn is a good example..... But siege works cuz of lower player counts per lobby, and siege's whole ethos banking on it being a random map and not a set rotation... With 64 to 128 players you need a region select, better yet a browser so that people get visual feedback to see which games are closest to filling.... Or hell, if there aren't any, switch to a different region and join their games... Plus bf banks on map rotations...

[arctic grove]

or play the maps you fucking want...

and the modes you want to play

[radiant echo]

https://tenor.com/view/battlefield2042-battlefield-german-soldier-gif-23924277

[rancid umbra]

old enough for that to be a compliment😎

[rugged citrus]

thats the most important legacy feature above scoreboard and voip

[prisma anvil]

That too... .. I bet you right... If the matchmaking preferences thingy don't come in with the first maps you'll have posts again saying "x no. Of games played, never encountered new map"

Cuz the one thing people wanna play when a new map comes out is breakaway for the 5th time

[arctic grove]

thats what happens when you dont have a server browser: you chalk it up to rng and hope to not get the same map 20 times in a row

[rugged citrus]

matter of fact i once played on manifest 5 times in a row

[arctic grove]

its fucking stupid and moronic especially in a game like battlefield

[fierce gull]

Lucky bastard

[prisma anvil]

Hell, don't even need a browser for that, but a set rotation for the maps

[arctic grove]

be thankful you didnt play hourglass lmao

[arctic grove]

or better yet persistent servers and map rotation

[rugged citrus]

dude i love hourglass and orbital, i hate manifest because its literally a helicopter farm fest with all the trees to break lock ons

[umbral island]

Battle of Kursk was my childhood shame that it isn’t in Portal

[rugged citrus]

and tight spaces for infantry for rocket pods to farm

[prisma anvil]

I mean, V didn't have perisitent servers and it worked there

[serene oyster]

guyz i get error when i run bf 2042

i mean easy anticheat update failed

[fierce gull]

I guess it's not so easy

[rugged citrus]

be grateful you cant play bf2042

get ea play, 3 months is now 1 month offer till feb 8th to play all the older bf games

[fierce gull]

Ew ea play

[prisma anvil]

God bless ea play

[serene oyster]

i have all bfs

[fierce gull]

Gamers use EA play pro

[rugged citrus]

look bud, i wanna play bf4 bf1 bfv bf2042 nfs heat nfs hot pursuit remastered nfs 2015

[sterile quartz]

its in between good and great, i like it

[prisma anvil]

Not available for us console peasants that I think

[rugged citrus]

if i buy all of em ill go broke

[fierce gull]

You can only get ea play on Xbox if you own gamepass

[sterile quartz]

i only have a PC and i have gamepass with ea play

[fierce gull]

Another consoles you can't

[prisma anvil]

You can get ea play on ps, but not the pro... Not for me atleast... Could be regional idk

[fierce gull]

Damn I forgot about that

[sterile quartz]

yea,

[woven beacon]

Deathmatch cross play sucks on the Xbox. The controller button keep stopping working and hits really are not registering!

[summer sparrow]

🍆 👌 🥛

[sterile quartz]

🤦‍♂️

[summer sparrow]

awwwwww

[arctic grove]

What the fuck is happening to this chat?

[fierce gull]

The fuck

[prisma anvil]

[summer sparrow]

HAHAHAHHHAHAAH susi live come in my live

[arctic grove]

And why is it always this time of day when things get weird

[summer sparrow]

sike

[fierce gull]

Wait a minute

[arctic grove]

mods are asleep

[rancid umbra]

ads seems to make it worse lol hipfire at a distance gets headshots

[arctic grove]

time to go gaga i guess

[arctic grove]

Big brother never sleeps

[fierce gull]

You can scrape sand if you touch it with a plane wing in that 1942 map

Now that's epic

Where is this sand in hourglass

[radiant echo]

[serene oyster]

can anybody help me

[arctic grove]

shoot

[serene oyster]

i get error when i run easy anticheat

[arctic grove]

Linux or Win?

[serene oyster]

win 11

[fierce gull]

Troubleshoot easy anti-cheat

[serene oyster]

i repairedd

[arctic grove]

check redist folder, there might be a patcher for EAC

[serene oyster]

where is it?

[arctic grove]

somewhere in the core folder

whoever has that shit installed, help

[serene oyster]

only activation and activation64

[arctic grove]

okay, the folder is actually called Easy Anti Cheat

there should be an executable which can repair it or reinstall it

[serene oyster]

yes

i did already

[arctic grove]

Aight this is too much lmao enjoy your day(s)

https://c.tenor.com/z1riXv4tdSsAAAAM/chappelle-dave.gif

what does the error look like exactly?

[serene oyster]

launch error
service update failed.

[arctic grove]

oh, could be that the service doesn't start automatically

check your services list in task manager

[serene oyster]

how do i start it?

[arctic grove]

Task manager - Services ("Open services" at the bottom of the window)

[serene oyster]

easy anticheat service was started at local computer and paused

[arctic grove]

What's it's startup type? Manual or automatic?

[serene oyster]

switched to automatic start

[arctic grove]

Yup

[serene oyster]

still error

[arctic grove]

open it's properties and check recovery tab

[serene oyster]

and?

[arctic grove]

change the responses to all failures to "restart the service"

[serene oyster]

i did

still error

[arctic grove]

still no good? son of a bitch

[serene oyster]

why?

[fierce gull]

What does your error say? Any codes?

[arctic grove]

do you have it running before you start the game?

[serene oyster]

yup

[arctic grove]

try stopping it

[serene oyster]

it says easy anticheat paused

and i cant switch it back to ON\

[arctic grove]

check your processes too, there might be something related to EAC that's open and it could be preventing it from a proper restart

[raw vale]

i wanna get a refund so i can buy 2 pcs of belle delphine bath water

[umbral island]

What?

[arctic grove]

no need, just stop the service and try launcing the game again

[fierce gull]

Refunds? EA? Battlefield?
You are out of luck

[serene oyster]

i cant stop it

cuz it is already stopped

[raw vale]

you can get refunds on steam if you can convince the steam support guy, unfortunately, the game was gifted to me but luckily I spent $0 on this game, but I still feel scammed and I want that $60 to be spent somewhere else instead

[arctic grove]

okay, try booting up the game then

[fiery solar]

can i become friends with the steam support guy

[raw vale]

go contact steam support and ask them

[fierce gull]

The steam support guy probably gets PTSD from the cyberpunk days so thats why he accepted some refunds

[outer anchor]

why does falck looks like shes 95 years old and sounds like shes 12

[arctic grove]

Must be a victim himself, heh

[raw vale]

falck during the play test sounded like she was smoking 50 cigs a day

[fiery solar]

damn the things i can do with $110 in my steam account if my refund gets accepted but ive already refunded 2 games in less than 2 weeks

[rich agate]

there’s a limit to how many games you can refund in 2 weeks?

[slim quiver]

No

But they grow suspicious

[rich agate]

Oh

[grand oxide]

is Falck running slower then the others?

[fiery solar]

thats weird

[slim quiver]

And probably less likely to accept anything past or within the guidelines

[fiery solar]

next gen experience. old lady

[fierce gull]

Imagine getting killed by old lady

[slim quiver]

She runs the same speed

[fiery solar]

more hyped for battlebit when that releases. 254 player matches almost full destruction

[slim quiver]

Honestly i wasn’t really s fan of the ages of the specialists but meh

[rich agate]

Is battlebit free?

[slim quiver]

No it’s in beta I think

[fiery solar]

battlebit remastered free on steam no servers yet

[pliant current]

Have we figured out how to make the game use close to 100% gpu yet?

[arctic grove]

so, did it work?

[slim quiver]

Game is more CPU intensive

[rich agate]

I’m excited for the launch of Battlefield 3 RM

[slim quiver]

Don’t know how people would change that tbh

[slim quiver]

Was that announced?

[pliant current]

Ok I’ll rephrase then, have we figured out how to make the game use close to 100% resources yet? Cause it’s using 30% of my cpu and 50% gpu

[rich agate]

Reality Mod not remastered. It’s like bf3 but more realistic

[fiery solar]

i did something to fortnite so i can try out ray tracing and turned off CPU things on task manager now i can play with DX12 enabled but no ray tracing

[slim quiver]

Oh then idk

What’s your gpu?

[fiery solar]

but i cant do that with battlefield cause access denied

[fierce gull]

I need a geek over here

[pliant current]

3080

[fierce gull]

Wait lemma guess

[rich agate]

damn

[knotty iron]

im selling my 3060 12 gb

[slim quiver]

Resolution?

[fierce gull]

Is your cpu Intel?

[pliant current]

1080p lol ik it’s overkill but at 50% usage I’m not even hitting my refresh rate

[pliant current]

Yea 12600k

[slim quiver]

What’s your RR

[pliant current]

165

[slim quiver]

Then I have no clue tbh

[fiery solar]

shit game

[slim quiver]

But I’m sure your RR is fine

[rich agate]

@pliant current i’m sorry this game is FUBAR i recommend playing anything but this for good performance

[fierce gull]

Wait

[pliant current]

I just wish the game would use our hardware as it should, so many reports of underutilization

[fierce gull]

@fiery solar is your pfp 2042?

[slim quiver]

My advice is wait for some patches

[fiery solar]

orbital tower

[pliant current]

Oh well, thanks for the help. Thought it would be fixed by now

[rich agate]

yea, same graphics on your pc is the same graphics on a 8 year old PS4

[fierce gull]

Damn I thought it was a real pic

[fiery solar]

the place everyone went in beta

[slim quiver]

Meh that’s a little overexaggerated

The graphics aren’t bad

[fierce gull]

You sure?

[fiery solar]

graphics are just right

[pliant current]

A ps4 isn’t playing 2042 at ultra settings at 60+ fps

[rich agate]

i mean they look pretty damn similar to me lol. i have 2042 on console

[rich agate]

Damn not mine 😂

[fiery solar]

unless youve studied everything there is about how to make a game look better than this its not bad

[pliant current]

Sorry typo

[grizzled whale]

and a ps4 has smaller maps and half the players per match

[slim quiver]

The only graphics I think are a little off is the models of the characters, some have really good looking faces and the others look very unsettling to not appealing

[pliant current]

The HDD of last gen are what make the game struggle most for them

[slim quiver]

Sundance and Angel have very good face character models etc

[fiery solar]

the faces in this game were made with gta 5 engine it sucks

[slim quiver]

Paik and Boris are a different story

[fiery solar]

if only sundance wasnt an annoying character

[slim quiver]

I don’t think GTA V uses frostbite

[fierce gull]

They need to put her helmet on to make her shut the fuck up

[slim quiver]

Idk I like characters that are talkative

I don’t like silent characters

[fiery solar]

no but have you seen the unimportant NPC faces

[slim quiver]

Dont they have helmets on

[fiery solar]

viciously screams when vehicle is 2 feet in the air

GRAYNADE OUT

[slim quiver]

Nothing wrong with that

[fierce gull]

I mean you would have to say that

[fiery solar]

only good line is fuck off when you get hit

[arctic grove]

That's woman talking within you

[slim quiver]

What does that mean

[fiery solar]

uh oh its gonna be turned into an act of racism insult

[hazy vector]

that's both a incoherent and sexist statement

[fiery solar]

but nothing is worse than angel lines jokes aside

[arctic grove]

Means you talk nonstop and don't even notice, hence the question lol

[fiery solar]

did you just insult an e girl on discord bro

[slim quiver]

Because I’m a girl?

[fierce gull]

Alright but hear me out
Hardline in portal

[hazy vector]

no

[fierce gull]

Cops vs WW2 Germany

[fiery solar]

firestorm 1942 vs BF4

ik firestorm isnt bf4 first so it wouldnt work

[fierce gull]

Who do I talk to that works on portal

[fiery solar]

rich people

[slim quiver]

@arctic grove either way I’d refrain from saying that again

My advice is you should talk to a girl first before you make assumptions about them

[fiery solar]

jesus man it was a joke

[fierce gull]

Damn

[slim quiver]

I wasn’t laughing

[fierce gull]

Big CGI fight coming up

[fiery solar]

took it too seriously

[fiery solar]

sticks and glue budget

[arctic grove]

No fun allowed policy in full force

[slim quiver]

More like no sexism allowed

[smoky folio]

This game still alive?

[arctic grove]

Oh please, just have a laugh for a change

[slim quiver]

And I at least gave you a warning, I could have just muted you for it

Then be funny for a change and I would

[smoky folio]

Looks like i joined the chat at the right moment

[fiery solar]

you forget when youre on discord and someone above you sees a bad joke they can do whatever they want to you

[slim quiver]

Thats not really how it goes lol

[arctic grove]

ye well blow me

[slim quiver]

Yeah I’ll pass

[fierce gull]

What

I paid $60 for this shit

And the movie was 3 minutes long

I didn't even finish my popcorn

Is this place ever not whinge central

[unborn heart]

I think I lost my last two brain cells looking at the "joke"

Welp, another day

[fiery solar]

damn bro got EA making fun of the joke

[hazy vector]

it's gotta be tough to do QA when you have zero braincells now

[dull thorn]

DICE should share its testing process. As a developer, I would love to see.

[unborn heart]

Good thing I do LQA

[fierce gull]

Your status is perfect for this

[dull thorn]

LQA != QA

[hazy vector]

you don't need to think for Polish localisation QA?

[dull thorn]

It's poland XD

[hazy vector]

the person in question is at EA Spain apparently

[unborn heart]

I do, but it has about as much to do with "standard QA" as tuk-tuk does with a car

And I mean it as compliment to QA folks, they're golden

[round void]

thank you spitfire

[dull thorn]

@unborn heart Just not the QA folks at DICE

[slim quiver]

I see something like this again and you’re fucking gone

[unborn heart]

Them too

[dull thorn]

QA was said to be nonexistent by Tom

[slim quiver]

Consider that your only warning

[shy bronze]

🗿

[slim quiver]

Wow a guy that doesn’t work for a company didn’t notice it’s QA?

Who would have guessed

[shy bronze]

Imagine some random person online with no sources being wrong

[unborn heart]

Tom doesn't work at DICE last I checked, their QA very much exists

[slim quiver]

Yeah who would have thought

[dull thorn]

It's quite clear though. The purpose of QA is to catch bugs before they go live.

[shy bronze]

Who’s tom

[unborn heart]

And they catch overwhelming majority of them

[shy bronze]

All I know is he’s some guy that claims to have sources but never shares them

[round void]

awww spitfire, you are too kind, you are making me blush

[dull thorn]

If my QA team let the number of bugs through as DICE does for this game they would be sacked in 2 weeks at most.

[unborn heart]

Shush George

[shy bronze]

Who are you again

[round void]

[dull thorn]

I feel like that's irrelevant tbh but I work as a dev outside the game industry.

[shy bronze]

Just like everyone else apparently

[unborn heart]

Could tell

[dull thorn]

Who else is a dev?

[slim quiver]

It’s probably best to mate statements about stuff you know

[shy bronze]

Trust me bro I’m a dev

[dull thorn]

Software is software

[slim quiver]

Well

[unborn heart]

And anything with four wheels is a car

[slim quiver]

LMAO

[shy bronze]

Lol

[fiery solar]

love talking here

[dull thorn]

I assume yall are devs too or...

[shy bronze]

Yeah

[round void]

tuk tuk is a car and doesnt have 4 wheels

[shy bronze]

I am EA, I literally am EA

[dull thorn]

What do you work on?

[unborn heart]

Hello, Papa Wilson

[shy bronze]

Whatever it is the owner of EA does

[dull thorn]

The owner isnt a dev lol

[unborn heart]

Touche

[round void]

heck if i knew big boss was here i wouldve put on the nice suit

[unborn heart]

I would've needed to buy one

[shy bronze]

Nah I’m a dev trust me dude

[round void]

by suit i mean the nice shorts

[unborn heart]

2 years of WFH do wonders to your wardrobe, and not in a good way

[dull thorn]

I can relate to what I feel like happened at DICE though because I just left a company that something similar happened to.

The classic "All of our experienced devs left and left little to no documentation for the backend so we have to figure everything out ourselves."

[round void]

my wardrobe is just fine, all 4 shirts are in good condition

[shy bronze]

@slim quiver who are you

[slim quiver]

Are You saying the current devs aren’t experienced?

[slim quiver]

Idk who are you?

[round void]

who am i ?

[shy bronze]

I’m POW you know who I am

[dull thorn]

@slim quiver with the current engine, yes.

[slim quiver]

Not the best take

[round void]

so now you know the engine better than the devs?

[slim quiver]

Kind of mean of you to just assume that

You’ve never worked with the engine yourself

So how do you know how well they know or don’t know it

[shy bronze]

How do you operate a 155mm towed howitzer sir

I’ll wait

[round void]

aim and fire?

[slim quiver]

Point and click

[unborn heart]

T-shirt pile is doing fine here. Great color variety of black, black, black, black, washed out black and dark gray

[dull thorn]

I never have but I've had a similar experience where I had to learn everything myself because the experienced devs left no documentation

[shy bronze]

Digital targeting computers are on self propelled guns

[round void]

i do have a blue one as well

[dull thorn]

The quality of the work that the person who had to teach themselves is going to be significantly less of that than if they had documentation.

[arctic grove]

bioware had major trouble working with frostbite

[unborn heart]

I have one e-sports team jersey (which I'm wearing now). 85% of it is dark grey and black though

[arctic grove]

and pretty much all the original devs who have experience with frostbite left

[dull thorn]

I'm just stating what I see as an outside observer with an adjacent background.

[arctic grove]

its not unreasonable to assume the new devs know nothing about frostbite

[round void]

man WFH made me so lazy i dont even change clothes when i go shopping, i just put em over what im wearing

[arctic grove]

and that its hard for them to work with

[dull thorn]

That's literally what I'm saying

But people here don't want to hear that apparently.

[arctic grove]

its only common sense really when even ea's internal studios have major trouble working with frostbite

idk why you would think people who most likely come from completely different studios/are working for the first time as full time devs would have a better time

[dull thorn]

And I cant have experience working with frostbite but it's not available to the public. This is what happens when you have new people and closed source code.

[round void]

i blieve the adress can be found on the website? why not just fly over there and ask em if they have experience?

[dull thorn]

It's not that hard to understand especially for someone who has experienced it first hand

[unborn heart]

I have my outside clothes... more black

[arctic grove]

because its that easy of course, let me just fly over to stockholm and knock on their door

they will surely let me in and play around with their closed source engine right

[round void]

im sure they have some sort of speaker, no need to knock

[dull thorn]

You can just find them on linkedin instead and email them

[next onyx]

How to aim a howitzer? You aim up as much as possible and see where it lands

[round void]

dont aim straight above you

[next onyx]

lol

[arctic grove]

frostbite is only as good as the people making use of it

and if the people cant do anything with the damn engine then it might as well be shit

[dull thorn]

I just think that the internal management should admit to themselves that their team needs more hours in the engine before they ship something.

Either that or the PM is just terrible

[fierce gull]

Damn frostbite looks kinda shit in far distance

[arctic grove]

the game might be on a newer frostbite engine than the previous bf but it looks worse than it

because its not being utilized to its potential

[slim quiver]

I think you should stick to just explaining the stuff you do know and cut out the part where you talk about other peoples work that you know nothing about

[dull thorn]

Or it could be a combination of the 2.

[fierce gull]

Big maps

If it had a normal size map
Cool details

[dull thorn]

@slim quiver I'm playing it so I do know something about it.

[arctic grove]

ea's own internal studios have admitted that frostbite is an absolute nightmare to work with

and all the people who worked on frostbite and have experience left dice

[round void]

And they can talk about it cus they know it, but a random talking random stuff he heard online isnt ok

[slim quiver]

You know nothing about the experience of the devs

[round void]

You know nothing john snow

[arctic grove]

they dont have experience with frostbite thats for sure

[dull thorn]

@slim quiver I do know that the experienced devs have left the studio

[slim quiver]

Oh I’m sure you do

[arctic grove]

because if so then they wouldnt take 18 fucking months trying to update the engine to the latest iteration lmao

[slim quiver]

You just know it all don’t you

[dull thorn]

Of course not. I know this because linkedin literally shows that they left

[arctic grove]

im pretty sure there is a whole spreadsheet about everyone who left dice

[slim quiver]

Maybe you should send an application in so you can show people how it’s done right?

[dull thorn]

It's not that hard to find out who has left and who is still there.

[arctic grove]

a ton of them are frostbite devs

[dull thorn]

Apply to a shitshow when I just left a shitshow? Nah, I'm gonna pass

[slim quiver]

Lmao

Just stop talking, this looks so ignorant it’s insane

[dull thorn]

It isn't though

[arctic grove]

its not being ignorant, its the honest truth

[slim quiver]

Yes it is ignorant

[dense terrace]

member when EA games meant to challange everything?

[unborn heart]

"Experienced devs" always come and go and nobody makes news out of it unless it fits current news narrative, that's reality

[dull thorn]

It's what's happening

@unborn heart Experienced devs dont come and go. That's what makes them experienced.

[slim quiver]

You don’t work in the industry or the company and you never even were apart of the creation of the game and all you do is pass judgment

[unborn heart]

They do

[slim quiver]

If that isn’t ignorance than idk what is

[dense terrace]

so hows weather everyone

[arctic grove]

if frostbite was easy to work with, they surely wouldnt need almost 2 years to just update the games engine right?

[dull thorn]

I'm not sure why this is such a hard pill to swallow for you.

[round void]

Experienced dev means a person that has experience in developing, you say if i go and do QA for a different company i wont have QA experience?

[arctic grove]

and ea's studios wouldnt say the engine was a nightmare to work with?

[slim quiver]

It’s not hard to see that you simply are talking out of your ass

[next onyx]

Devs usually leave to pursue other ventures. After working on battlefield for a while you'd want to work on something different.

[solid trellis]

hi

[grizzled whale]

you realise experience doenst reset when you go work at another company right?

[dense terrace]

anthem had ton of issues with people not knowing how to work on engine 😦 still game played and looked amazing

[unborn heart]

I already count as what most job applications treat as "experienced in localization" and it horrifies me

[grizzled whale]

game had so much potential

[dense terrace]

i came back after 3 years and play it every few days coz its just fun (except soloing gm3 bosses)

[dull thorn]

@round void I'm talking about a closed source engine. If you worked in C++ and you went to work with a closed source C++ project at a different company the only thing that will transfer is your knowledge of C++ and you'll have no experience working on the closed source project.

That's what I'm referring to

[slim quiver]

So then how exactly do you know everything about the devs in a company you didn’t work for and in a field that you’re not in?

[dull thorn]

Because you can see where they worked before DICE lol

[arctic grove]

the benefit of using a public engine like unreal is that new developers dont have to spend whole 18 months trying to figure out the engine and fuck around with it

[unborn heart]

Frostbite is C++ IIRC

[dull thorn]

No other company used Frostbite so if they dont work for EA or a studio under EA they will have no experience in the engine.

[arctic grove]

its common sense really

[round void]

So you are the kind of person that judges people by how the exterior of the house looks like without living or meeting them?

[slim quiver]

So then the devs currently are experienced

Gotcha

Just had to make sure we understood that

[dull thorn]

@slim quiver I would say the collective years of experience at DICE has decreased greatly in recent years.

[round void]

Same thing happened to level of oxygen in the atmosphere

[slim quiver]

The only thing decreased is your level of empathy and it’s continuing with every post

[arctic grove]

if you didnt work at ea before, you have no experience using frostbite

its that simple really, there are no ifs and buts

[round void]

But i like butts

[unborn heart]

You probably had experience with language it's written in

[slim quiver]

[arctic grove]

doesnt mean you automatically know the engine

there are several engines written in C++

[dull thorn]

@unborn heart I'm sorry but that doesn't really help when you have no clue what is happening under the hood.

[unborn heart]

Doesn't mean you're fully clueless either

[dull thorn]

You can be clueless and know the language.

[next isle]

What's the current interesting debate here?

[unborn heart]

You can, you don't have to

[next onyx]

About engines it seems

[unborn heart]

Judging house interiors by the walls and armchair renovation

[arctic grove]

im not a game dev or anything but i surely do know a bit of C++ and am experienced with python, that doesnt mean i know how to play around with frostbite no?

[next isle]

Most people here are disqualified based on experience then

[dull thorn]

I can say that from experience because it took me months to learn how to fully use the system my past company used even though it's written in a language I could write in my sleep.

[next isle]

Including me

[round void]

Good thing you arent QA, this guy said they wouldve fire all his QA if they were like DICEs QA

[dull thorn]

I dont think people who arent devs understand what I'm actually talking about. I've experienced what I think is going on a DICE first hand.

If I havent then I wouldn't be talking about it.

[round void]

Lemme explain the situation, you think u know more than u do and you are stubborn so go and talk somewhere else

[arctic grove]

its just logical:
you have closed source engine like frostbite thats notoriously difficult to work with

you hire new devs

they dont know anything about the engine

[dull thorn]

@round void no, I think I know what happened at DICE as to why the game is of lesser quality than the previous games.

@arctic grove Also the fact is that a lot of experienced devs hold their experience close to their chest.

[arctic grove]

the new devs dice hired arent some wizards

[foggy crest]

best engine is in mustang

[dull thorn]

Even if they were but the documentation was ass they would still have a hard time.

[round void]

Lemme tell you the wonders of Dacia

[arctic grove]

you dont need to be a first hand game dev to deduce this stuff

its just common sense

[dull thorn]

@arctic grove Pretty much any dev that has been in the a dev for some time can deduce it very easily too

[fierce gull]

[dull thorn]

Hince, why I talk about it, is because it does happen quite a bit.

[next isle]

Finding and reporting bugs does not magically fix the bugs, and you know that if you work with QA teams.

[arctic grove]

no one asked for a perfect bug-free game

although that would certainly be welcome if it was possible
