battlefield-2042

[cedar turtle]

Sorry that idea has been denied due to the following reason(s): It's too good.

[tranquil turtle]

didn't they already reuse bf4 assets to make that military base in kaleidoscope

which happens to be the most out of place shit ever

[compact sleet]

What military base

[tranquil turtle]

the one they said they're going to add in that map feedback post

[tacit sorrel]

At that point you’re better off just playing bf4

[compact sleet]

Ohh I thought u meant it’s in the game rn

[tranquil turtle]

fuck, I'm going to go back to bf3 again 💀

[tribal obsidian]

AK is slick too bro

[tranquil turtle]

it is pretty good

recoil is easy to control, slow fire rate, but the damage is slightly above average

and it actually has good iron sights

[compact sleet]

I use 3x I think

[tranquil turtle]

I use the uh-1 razor (don't know the in game name)

[rain quest]

2042 is fun at times honestly. I just think they’d benefit from putting portal maps in main modes. You can do it in portal so wouldn’t hurt nothing. Renewal and orbital are really the only good maps.

It’s really one of the most requested features. Really dumbfounded as to why they don’t

[compact sleet]

Yeah they needa add more maps then add in grand operations cause that’d be cool. Add a little bit of a story to the game

[rain quest]

Feel like I need to put 2042 to the side for a year and then comeback. Bf4 took awhile to be good

[eager kelp]

BAttlefield hardline

[frank crater]

Ooooh the game ww3 I thought he was talking about the theme for the next battlefield game lmao

[shy bronze]

ww3 is EA now.

so you can just tap into it at anytime, its pretty good.

leagues better than what dice delivered this year

[cyan oracle]

Y the hell is my AI team mates always such idiots, while the enemies AI team is amazing it pisses me off

[arctic grove]

LMAO i agree 100%

[arctic grove]

Hardline > 2042

[scenic tartan]

Ww3 sucks

[plucky pebble]

ooof

[tough zenith]

They need to put the speed of smg mode in reg modes , its nice

[arctic grove]

No thanks, I would rather stick to DICE creating new maps relevant to the entire idea of this provides this important thing so you need to either attack it or defend it; way more then putting the portal maps in 2042 rotation which serve no purpose to what the game wants to portray

Besides all of that is meant to get you to go to Portal. AOW follows a totally separate direction

[arctic grove]

I didn’t think it looked right either. If all of the gazebos were replaced for one large military camp that was set up to try to administer to the chaos that led to the cities evacuation that would be better

[scenic tartan]

wow in the 2042 speed rush mode in portal the specialists dont say their lines at the end of the round

thats what i want to see in every mode

[arctic grove]

Their quips seem to be entirely broken in portal

[edgy oriole]

I dont like the "award screen" at all at the end. im trying to get into another game quick not sit there for an extra 30 seconds. those 30 seconds adds up lol

[warped pulsar]

We getting an update this week?

[scenic tartan]

I think it's on purpose for rush

This rush mode is really fun everyone should go play it

I even had fun on el Alamein

[lost snow]

I wonder how many people are going to fall for EA's hype again. If i were them, i wouldn't bother making another Battlefield for awhile.

[arctic grove]

Buddy people have been falling for it for a hella long time

[lost snow]

No more.

[arctic grove]

EA isn’t just battlefield.

Guess how successful their other titles always tend to be?

Even if some are almost the same exact thing every year?

[hearty flame]

Andromeda
Anthem
People will learn eventually (I hope)

[arctic grove]

If they can push those to people and 2042 sold 4 million on launch alone then….

[hearty flame]

Then theres their sport games which i hear are mostly the same year after year
with multiple layers of mtx

[arctic grove]

Almost all of the sales ea continues to get is possibly just people who want to pick up a new game to play every now and then regardless of what factors plague them, after all they’ll buy and switch to the next big title out

[hearty flame]

True. Casual players who dont stay around too long or play enough to see all the bad practices

[lost snow]

The only way you wouldn't get burned would be to take the $90 and use the cash for potholders.

[arctic grove]

a lot of us though for instance won’t fall for it and in that case rocky is correct

but people say what he did on every BF launch, so

all I know is I won’t mind preordering if it’s in a modern setting without 128 and specialists. i dont mind specialists and enjoy 128 but hey

[hearty flame]

haha after 2042s marketing cycle Im waiting a few months
"love letter"
the beta is a months old build
its gonna be patched
we are here
season 1
...
End of support
"Please buy the next BF"

[arctic grove]

gimmie a no name with MARPAT and a balaclava and I’ll be gud

[foggy crest]

u must be blocked by spudbug already

[hearty flame]

Maybe. I'd like to think that Im realistic about 2042 without being super negative or super positive but EA/DICE doesnt inspire hope and Spud seems to like 2042 more than dislike

[foggy crest]

say negative u are a troll

[hearty flame]

If Spud wants to live in a happy, positive echo chamber where theres nothing wrong with 2042 and its all just the "community" complaining, then good for them

[foggy crest]

hmmmm

[wide violet]

imagine if life worked like that

[scenic tartan]

Speed rush is the best portal mode yet wow

[foggy crest]

u can call a masterpiece game trash i wont block u

[prisma anvil]

[foggy crest]

yo

[prisma anvil]

Ni hao

[arctic grove]

How I view it, I let the product speak for itself. Let season 1 roll around. We’ll see how it goes. It will or will not do its own talking by then

[foggy crest]

nasmaste 🙏

[arctic grove]

Embark did you get smited or did you go on a life journey?

[prisma anvil]

Neither

Just been busy

Work for my master's thesis finally picked up, 6/7 days of work.... Existence is suffering

[foggy crest]

u saw hogwarts legacy gameplay ?

[prisma anvil]

Yep

[foggy crest]

cool

[arctic grove]

Easy way to fix that,

Return to monke

[prisma anvil]

Dat shit look good

[foggy crest]

u like it ?

[foggy crest]

yeah i was not excited for that game at all but that gameplay video had me

https://tenor.com/view/moya-gif-18632828

[prisma anvil]

Now now

Calm..... We wait for launch and reviews

[foggy crest]

yeah yeah yeah

[prisma anvil]

I wish I was a monke

[foggy crest]

why ?

[prisma anvil]

Why not?... Don't you wanna spin on branches while eating bananas?

[foggy crest]

do they even find bananas in jungle ?

[prisma anvil]

If not bananas, then something else...

That's the thing, you're a monke, you don't have to worry

Plus you dont have to pay taxes

[foggy crest]

wait

[prisma anvil]

[prisma anvil]

Yes

[foggy crest]

about rent

[prisma anvil]

Don't have to pay rent either

[foggy crest]

this made me realise why spiderman wasnt paying rent

he wasnt dumb

[prisma anvil]

Return to forest brother

[royal egret]

is it true that dev is already making next BF and don't wanna use BF2042 on its progress ?

[foggy crest]

its normal thing after releasing a game they start to work on new one its very common

[prisma anvil]

Second part is up in the air cuz we dont know if theyre gonna carry on with that shared universe thing

[subtle imp]

they can work on more than one thing at a time

[arctic grove]

Yea, it’s nothing to necessarily acknowledge. The next title is more than likely not releasing till late 2024 or somewhere in 2025

[subtle imp]

as soon as a game is released the pivot some of the dev teams onto whatever is next, this is normal...

and keep some of the teams on the current project for bug fixing, content, etc

[hard plume]

People still not understanding how game development works?

[hexed mango]

crazy…

it’s almost as if people don’t understand that dice/ripple effect/etc. are a group of people focused on a project that is unrelated to any supposed future content currently

[scenic tartan]

People should try flying vehicles in a real match before complaining about them being op

It is so easy to die lmao and now 120s respawn on them

[arctic grove]

That 120 second timer will literally kill armored players if the c5 drone isn’t exterminated. Losing your entire teams tanks to something with no real counter play then you can’t get any new ones out for significantly longer

[arctic grove]

I know where this is from

[foggy crest]

ANNA NISHIKINOMIYA is my favourite anime girl but sadly she is in the worst anime ever made

[arctic grove]

LMAO soo true

[foggy crest]

I like HANABI from kuzu no honkai

[arctic grove]

i thought it was stupidly funny

Hanabi good

[foggy crest]

U watched kuzu no honkai ?

[arctic grove]

yup

What has this server become LMAO

[foggy crest]

Nice

[foggy crest]

Is it bad ?

[arctic grove]

[upbeat sand]

bruv

[tardy plinth]

Can someone provide decent aim settings for me? The aiming in the game is awful and it feels like aiming at people in CQC is impossible

Aim assist is awful in this game as well and I feel like I miss 99% of my shots

Yet I get lasered from 50m away by a K30 or MP9

[tepid agate]

Do y'all think season1 can revive bf2042?

[foggy crest]

if the content is good

[tepid agate]

What would you consider as good content?

[foggy crest]

like a good map , gun , fun game mode , this game has specialist sooo a new interesting specialist

[tepid agate]

I think they need to drop a nuke on every map. The maps look to clean and polished for a world which is supposed to be on edge.

[foggy crest]

yeah like war torn aesthetic

atmosphere is definitely missing

[grizzled whale]

Seems like a skill issue

[arctic magnet]

Bf1 last real battlefield game

[grizzled whale]

Nah, bf4

[tardy plinth]

Nah I still drop like 40 kills a game but shit is ridiculous sometimes

[grizzled whale]

40 kills, in a whole ass conquest match?

[tardy plinth]

Breakthrough

[grizzled whale]

Skill issue indeed

[tardy plinth]

Haven't played conquest in a long time cuz it's boring without amigos

[grizzled whale]

On breaktrough its even easier to drop 100+

[tardy plinth]

I'm on last gen

[grizzled whale]

Skill issue #3

[tardy plinth]

Go play 2042 on last gen instead of PC then come back and troll

[grizzled whale]

Why would i do that

[tardy plinth]

To feel my pain

[grizzled whale]

Angel doesnt feel pain

[tame cobalt]

Scrap the shitbite engine and make a modified version of unreal engine 5 for BF6.

Shitbite engine is too unfriendly to devs aren't familiar with it, and is thus holding them back. Unreal engine is the opposite, it's the major engine most devs will already be familiar with

[subtle imp]

engine is too unfriendly to devs aren't familiar with it, and is thus holding them back. - got a source on that claim?

EA/Dice devs would be familiar, seeing as it was developed in-house

[tame cobalt]

Problem is, DICE has had a lot of people leave and join over the last couple years. Many of them aren't familiar with it

[royal egret]

if it's BF6 that is

imagine they go from BF2042 to BF2077

[subtle imp]

Battlefield: Medieval

[white geyser]

Battlefield 2162

[upbeat sand]

only way to eternally destory 2042 is skill based matchmaking

[untold narwhal]

lfg team for conquest bf2042

[subtle imp]

there's an entire section of "looking for games" channels on this server dude:

#lfg-pc
#lfg-xbox
#lfg-playstation

[untold narwhal]

CHEERS SORRY BRO

[sturdy prism]

Bad decisions leads to devs leaving cuz unhappy which leads to less devs available to make the game better

[royal egret]

SBMM 💀

[upbeat sand]

sbmm was made by the devil

[subtle imp]

right, because they don't hire to backfill headcount like every other company... ok...

[arctic grove]

Does this channel ever get tired?

[silk surge]

That would never work in 2042. Hell, the game has trouble finding full games with just regular matchmaking during non-peak hours. If it it would work, I would sort of welcome it tbh. Would be nice to play with people of equal skills as opposed to the dipshits that spawns in my heli while I'm in the passenger seat, completely ignores my calls for them to jump out, and crashes it immediately.

[upbeat sand]

dam

just dont use hele

[silk surge]

I like playing air vehicles.

[slow kraken]

no

[silk surge]

With the right content and marketing, they will probably revive the hype for a while at least. It happened like 3 times during BFV's update cycle.

[arctic grove]

Honestly probably not though because people moved on or it killed the battfield series for them.

[haughty kiln]

does anyone know a fix for the crazy flickering?

[true wind]

Hi everyone I'm on PlayStation 5 North Queensland Australia and I haven't even been able to log into the game for the last 3 days to actually play it. Does anyone know what's going on ? I haven't done any research so just jumped on here to ask. I'm one of the poor suckers that paid $160 and pre-ordered the game. Hoping and praying since beta that things will get better. My biggest wish is that my load out and customizations will stop reverting back to default every two games. Oh and that it will actually let me into the server so I can play 😥

[opal cedar]

what are your specs

[shy latch]

Hi, as far as I understood is not easy to find a match on Asian servers, Oceanian servers and US West servers

[edgy oriole]

i heard servers for bf4 and 2042 were poop this weekend.

[arctic grove]

Revive battlefield chat

[river zinc]

On the rare occasion

[true wind]

Thnx for replys 💪

[flat brook]

Battlefield 2042 is the greatest battlefield game that has ever come out

I mean the past games didn’t have innovative features like portal and weather and big player counts and they’re doing updates for the things that people complain about but even then it’s not really an issue for me. It really is a fun game.

[ionic adder]

[shadow cobalt]

Battlefield"s diehard fans would be feel like something missing but 2042 would be fun and novelty for new players

[old mantle]

2042 is the best Battlefield game

Then Hardline

[radiant prism]

I mean, I’ve been playing BF for 5+ years now. I enjoy the game but I can see the game has issues.

[woeful remnant]

Hardline isn't bad when it works

[flat brook]

Battlefield 2042 is a revolution of all battlefield games, and it’s only going to get better from here.

Unless they succumb to pressure to revert all the changes in the future, which would be a big mistake.

[arctic grove]

Said no one

[flat brook]

Said ME and a lot of people i know. People here too.

If you don’t like 2042 maybe you shouldn’t hang out in this channel

[arctic grove]

Was it DICE by any chance

I want 2042 to improve

And I want some god damn info for the upcoming patch

[flat brook]

You can go voice your complaints to EA Dice.

[arctic grove]

As if they're going to listen

[flat brook]

That’s up to them.

[arctic grove]

I've got the same complaints as other 200k ppl

[flat brook]

So you won’t because other people are doing it? That’s like not voting i n an election because other people are doing it

every opinion matters

[arctic grove]

Nah I'm just lazy

[edgy oriole]

[arctic grove]

we up!

[arctic grove]

You can patiently wait for them to release a post about it like a couple or so days before they end up doing it, chances are it’ll be this Thursday or next week

But next week is not early april

It is doe

That's gonna be like april 14-15th

Half of the month passed

[edgy oriole]

its still early april.

[arctic grove]

Oh yeah it's early april till 31st

[edgy oriole]

thats called late april....

[arctic grove]

Perhaps May

Is early april

[edgy oriole]

may would be.... may

[arctic grove]

May is June

[edgy oriole]

tbh i dont think they said early april i could be wrong tho * they did

[arctic grove]

They did

And have you ever heard of sarcasm

[edgy oriole]

nah i cant hear sarcasm through discord text chat.

[arctic grove]

I can see that

[wide violet]

i love how theres always a layer of toxicity in this discord for no reason lol

[arctic grove]

But bf2042 bad

[flat brook]

yea there’s always toxic people who say that battlefield 2042 sucks and etc when we know that it is a great game. Honestly whenever people are being toxic like that just try to calm them down or not engage with them or get the mods or something

[arctic grove]

Ur saying I can't express my negative emotions towards the game cuz it's considerably worse than previous bf titles, therefore I should get banned or muted by the mods?

[flat brook]

I’m giving advice about how to deal with trolls and toxic people, I don’t know what triggered you so you should just try to calm down and lay off for a while. Seemed a little aggressive to me in that message. I’d love to have a normal conversation with you about this later

[arctic grove]

I'm not being agressive, I just can't put my words together so It will seem friendlier

bruh one issue with the maps are that they are tight and the spawning

[wide violet]

yeah no 2042 sucks. theres a reason it has a low player count lol. It just funny yall are still fighting in here when the games been dogwater since November

[flat brook]

They could make them bigger to deal with the tightness

But no i see what you mean bf1 enjoyer

[arctic grove]

They might as well allow past gen players to play with 128 players now that graphics are terrible and smoke with explosions look like pixel art

[flat brook]

Woah woah, chill down

[bold steppe]

This game is simply garbage. Feels like a cheap copy of the previous battlefield games... Unfinished, soulless, ugly. I don't mind changes and new ideas because it is necessary to survive in the video game industry. But all the major changes in BF2042 make me sick... who was the designer of the specialists? This change has never been asked for by the community, and it killed the essence of the battlefield games... but if they are here, why they look and sound like a bunch of losers? EA and DICE see the battlefield players like these specialists? A loser? This game is simply annoying, and it feels like that it was designed to be annoying on purpose

[arctic grove]

that game actually has good maps and are accompanied with all playstyles

[arctic grove]

I agree I really don't like them but I had a lot of fun testing out each and every one

[arctic grove]

I've climbed Everest. It's been all downhill from there... Get it?

[arctic grove]

If only they looked like actually prepared for battlefield soldiers

Look at Mackay. What a stupid goofball with his silly dumb face

Also I love it on how 2042 depicts that countries are disbanding and we are on the brink of ww3 but the game itself doesn't replicate that society

Somehow the US and RU have super soilders

And everyone is speaking english

apparently ww3 is just lazer tag

And they're all so happy about going on a 100 kill rampage "Angel does it again"

When you kill a person, Mackay just goes "Killed one! Wooo!"

Like wtf kinda "gritty" atmosphere is that

[hexed mango]

🥠

[bold steppe]

thats cringe af

[radiant prism]

Personally I just tune out the cheesy stuff.

Honestly the way Mackay says that line in particular, it honestly sounds more like he's trying to keep himself alert and energetic rather than being genuinely happy to have killed an enemy. Like there's a slight twinge of hesitation in the way he delivers it.

Saying the line in text doesn't do it justice if you ask me.

It's not literary masterpiece or anything, don't get me wrong. It does feel appropriate considering Mackay's character.

[arctic grove]

Your name contradicts your pfp so much

Sick name tho and pfp

[bold steppe]

thats how you inject copium

[radiant prism]

You make a compelling argument

I'm genuinely saying its more like a "Whew, ok" rather than a "fuck yeah that guy's dead"

If you had actually heard the line you might know what I'm talking about, but like I said, writing it out in text doesn't do it justice

[bold steppe]

im pretty sure no spec ops soldier says got 1 woooo after killing someone

[radiant prism]

I assume you've talked to many spec ops soldiers then?

[bold steppe]

maybe i dont need to

[cyan trout]

I agree with the soulless part.

[bold steppe]

or maybe i lived with a lots of them

maybe they are my brothers

[radiant prism]

I'm frankly inclined to doubt that.

[bold steppe]

Suit yourself

[bold steppe]

ikr

[craggy marten]

Funny how we say it's an almost WORLD WAR 3 game, but everyone doesn't realize that it's US vs RU again.

[radiant prism]

Frankly, given that the cast of 2042 is largely irregular soldiers, they don't need to fit the hardened, "spec ops" mold if you ask me. The line fits Mackay perfectly.

[arctic grove]

Mackay is a special boy

[radiant prism]

Mackay is an adrenaline junkie with a grappling hook. Boris is an ex-arms dealer, Sundance was French military and former organized crime, Rao is a hotshot hacker, it goes on.

I do get why its not for everyone, but they've done well in what they're going for in terms of character building.

....Except the end of round screens. I don't think anyone really likes those.

[cobalt flower]

I don't know what it is about 2042, but I always am having a blast playing it

[arctic grove]

Boris's head is so big, it has it's own gravity field

Falk is just a granny

[bold steppe]

yes but they done it on the wrong game, could have made a different game with a theme like that

[radiant prism]

Agreed. I can look past the jank stuff since at the end of the day I'm having fun and can't really complain.

[arctic grove]

Ngl Falk has a decent ass for a granny

[radiant prism]

Ayo?

[cobalt flower]

its the most fun I've had in a battlefield tbh

[bold steppe]

the core of the franchise shouldnt have been compromised,

[arctic grove]

The shootouts in the orbital tunnel between B1 and B2 made me notice it

[cobalt flower]

holy shit the shootouts in that tunnel are amazing

the shootouts in the interiors are the best in this game

[radiant prism]

To say the core has been compromised is an overstatement if you ask me. If you look at things on paper, then yes its a radical change. But when you look at it in practice, in how the course of an average match plays, it plays just the same as almost any other battlefield.

[arctic grove]

That's why they need a locker map asap

Some dude asked to play in ps channel, added me, said let's play and just unfriended me 💀

[radiant prism]

We need more areas like Breakaway A flag if you ask me. That's some of the most fun and intense fighting I've had in this game

[arctic grove]

Not sure if I remember what area is that

Is that the worker village orr?

[cobalt flower]

facts, its like having 10 or so classes in the 4 archetypes

[radiant prism]

The oil refinery/worker village yeah

[cobalt flower]

I like it a lot better tbh

[radiant prism]

Specialists effectively boil down to just a gadget and a perk that comes into play once in a blue moon

[bold steppe]

the cringy one liners werent necessary to say the least,

[cobalt flower]

idk why you guys hate the one liners so much, just ignore them lmao

[arctic grove]

I'm a Mackay main and I just can't switch to any other specialist cuz his grappling hook is everything

[radiant prism]

Agreed, the one liners are a problem area...but man, if you're letting some one liners ruin an entire game for you, I feel sorry for you.

[cobalt flower]

they're background noise to me

[cobalt flower]

Battlefield fans built different I guess lmao

[arctic grove]

My dumbass pulls out Angels supply bag and tries to grapple onto something

[bold steppe]

imagine if they make John wick 4 and mr. wick says wooo i killed one after killing someone

[arctic grove]

I hate it when women are fighting in ww2 😡😡😡

[cobalt flower]

Fragile white men lol

[radiant prism]

Stop politicizing games smh, don't you know people existing is poltical???

[cobalt flower]

Wait till they learn Sundance is non binary

[arctic grove]

Heccckkk I'm sorry

[radiant prism]

Ree! Less serious things in my arcade shooter!!!!

[bold steppe]

i think it has more to do with the historical inaccuracy than being sexist

[cobalt flower]

its a multiplayer game, its not going to be accurate LMAO

[arctic grove]

What is the point of taking over launch pad on Orbital if u can just blow it up and make it pointless for both sides

Isn't there like an american intel they're trying to launch into space

[cobalt flower]

being able to play as someone like yourself is more important than historical accuracy

[radiant prism]

Video games are not the place to have serious historical lessons.

[cobalt flower]

if you want historical accuracy, play hell let loose or post scriptum lol

[bold steppe]

its ok to not be accurate but not as fundamentally inaccurate to call day as night

[arctic grove]

Next bf better have FIFA thing where u can turn your selfie into a specialist

[bold steppe]

why not?

they make movies too to have serious historical lessons , then why not games

[cobalt flower]

based lol

[radiant prism]

You mean like BF1 including more experimental weapons than actual weapons or buttloads of tanks or planes providing close air support or fast, mobile warfare in a WW1 game?

[grizzled whale]

Angel is a godly being

[cobalt flower]

to want a Battlefield game to be historically accurate is fucking stupid lmao

[arctic grove]

You’ll like world at war if you want some historic accuracy

[cobalt flower]

Why can't I kill civilians with white phosphorus in Battlefield 3?

[bold steppe]

yes i liked it, it was good

[arctic grove]

Because that too bad

[bold steppe]

those days when cod wasnt cringe with snoop dogs jumping into the battlefield

[arctic grove]

I never played world at war

Remember when Twitter was upset at MW19 for white phosphorus being a kill streak saying it promoted biological warfare and terrorism?

[radiant prism]

get a load of this guy

[arctic grove]

My favorite games were mw2 and bo2

[radiant prism]

WaW plays up SO many stereotypes, it loses scope of much of the war.

[arctic grove]

Mainly bo2

[cobalt flower]

mrw no warcrimes in muh vidya

[arctic grove]

Next week challenge better be an universal US/RU soldier uniform for every specialist

[arctic grove]

Gave it depth

That’s maybe true. But it’s something. A lot better than vanguard. (Maybe cod ww2 as well)

[cobalt flower]

I mean, COD definitely is a series for right winged libertarians lol

MW19 did also make Russians commit the whole Highway of Death thing...

[radiant prism]

Not really. Hearing Reznov yelling in that stupid russian accent 24/7 is not "depth" and just played up the idea that the Russians just used dumb human wave tactics and just generally reinforced the "muh Russia strong" meme.

[arctic grove]

Reznov is the best character

Well a large tactic of the Soviet Union was run at them with more men than they have bullets but maybe not EXACTLY in that suicidal way

[arctic grove]

Dis is unacceptable. Enemi controls everi sektor

NATO knew that if the Soviet Union steamrolled through Europe they wouldn’t have enough immediate men and ammunition to stop everyone

[radiant prism]

No. The Russians used standard field tactics just like everyone else. It was a thing in a few places, but it is largely an exception that proves the rule.

Also the whole "1 Rifle, 2 Men" thing was due to poor or disrupted logistics, not lack of resources.

Don't get me started on the vast array of Soviet misconceptions that WaW largely played up and actively worsened

Anyone who thinks WaW is historically accurate...whew. Read a book. Preferably not any of the post-war german memoirs that originally spawned the tropes that WaW actively exploits.

[arctic grove]

Sir, this is #battlefield-2042

[radiant prism]

yeah sorry y'all got me on a tangent

[cobalt flower]

I'm excited for the map changes! Are they coming out this month?

[arctic grove]

Reznov is love

They’re coming this summer

[arctic grove]

If we get lucky, probably in season 2

Reznov is life

[cobalt flower]

Also, is the frostbite engine just a pain in the ass to work with? It seems like it is, with how slow they're patching the game

[arctic grove]

We’re not even in season 1

[arctic grove]

But seriously, they said that they're applying these changes this summer during season 1 update

[radiant prism]

Yup. Frostbite is generally a mess from what I've heard

[arctic grove]

It’s not since the next few weeks of weekly challenges have already been data mined (but not all are promised to appear in game) although I’ve been considering this and I’d like that too. It’s an easy way to make the game less like clone wars

[arctic grove]

Can I get a link?

[cobalt flower]

That's really sad

[arctic grove]

The whole game is really sad

[bold steppe]

the amount of changes required to fix this game will amount to development of a brand new game

but its not the only one, halo have been equally struggling

[arctic grove]

Sounds like a dice problem

[radiant prism]

It is...but also from what I've heard, such is the nature of game development

[cobalt flower]

And it's definitely too expensive fiscally and work wise to just do a overhaul of the engine

[arctic grove]

You guys only say this and I’m pretty sure it’s because the game would literally require a rework to get rid of specialists

[arctic grove]

It apparently has they are allegedly working on one set to release in 2023 (idk if it’s true tho)

[cobalt flower]

I think specialists belong in battlefield

[arctic grove]

I mean if there’s any source that I can check to see that myself I’d like to see

[arctic grove]

I think you belong in hell

[cobalt flower]

The specific gadgets being locked to a class at least

[arctic grove]

In battlefield: heroes

Treachery

[arctic grove]

Yes, this page is pretty cool and you should check it out every now and then https://mobile.twitter.com/temporyal/status/1501545747476529155?cxt=HHwWhoCyxdv5x9YpAAAA

Or battlefield mobile

[cobalt flower]

I am Bisexual, so I'm definitely going there

[radiant prism]

I dunno about specialists belonging in battlefield. I'm cool with them for 2042, but I think classes should return for future titles.

[arctic grove]

Fk. Twitter is blocked in Russia. Vpn stopped working too

Damn RIP dude

[arctic grove]

What does does being bi have to do with that

[radiant prism]

I do think gadgets along these sort of lines should return though, they're genuinely fun to use most of the time.

[cobalt flower]

Being gay is a sin or something

I've also gotten a haircut so I'm definitely going to hell lmao

[bold steppe]

if they release it in 2023 then it will be equally shit if not more as compared to 2042

[arctic grove]

Common misconception

[cobalt flower]

Yeah no way in hell it comes out next year

[arctic grove]

Yeah bf 2042 was in development for six years 💀

[radiant prism]

In the modern (mis)interpretation of the bible, yes. Originally though it honestly referred more to pedophilia than actual homosexuality. Gotta love twisting of words to fit bigoted narratives

[cobalt flower]

The next battlefield is definitely in preproduction

[radiant prism]

As is standard industry practice

[arctic grove]

Also a common misconception

[cobalt flower]

Oh of course, the Church can't have pedos go to hell

[bold steppe]

did you colour your hair purple green or something?

[radiant prism]

My roommate is literally a pastor's assistant lmao, and his dad IS a pastor

[arctic grove]

Both are sins according to the Bible, period

[cobalt flower]

My hair was switching between purple and blue for a year, but I'm back to my natural color now.

[arctic grove]

Christians have evolved most of us don’t care if your bi or gay or whatever

[radiant prism]

Wait how did we get to this topic LMAO

[bold steppe]

why only christians

[arctic grove]

There is some tho

[arctic grove]

Because they are the making the most progress

Yeah let’s divert off the subject which is a major Pandora’s box in itself

[radiant prism]

Yeah this is also reaching political territory too, lets avoid the mod bonks

[arctic grove]

Yeah agreed

[bold steppe]

you also christian?

[radiant prism]

Anyways battlefield sometimes maybe good, sometimes maybe shit yes?

[arctic grove]

I was at one point

I like Christians but again let’s get back to battlefield

[bold steppe]

i believe religion is just foolish but anyways not the right place to talk about it

[arctic grove]

https://mobile.twitter.com/temporyal/status/1511312707185614857?cxt=HHwWkoCphcy5ofkpAAAA

[radiant prism]

That's a can of worms that's best left closed, contrary to the beliefs of my Public Speaking professor

[bold steppe]

anyways i liked the music of battlefield 4 and bf2042 music feels like the rip off version of that

its bad really,

[cobalt flower]

eh, I like the experimental direction 2042 went in

[arctic grove]

Something to talk about here, potentially some sort of desert map, a locker sort of thing and perhaps a naval based map

Halo soundtrack is the best soundtrack in all video game history

[cobalt flower]

I'm glad they're no longer doing orchestras and shit

[radiant prism]

I like parts of 2042's soundtrack. Its not the best, but it fits the chaotic, hopeless setting of the game

[bold steppe]

bro nothing is experimental in 2042 , they copied what other games like siege, cod have which is specialists, infact they dumped the only original & unique thing they had in their game which are classes and combat with serious tone

[cobalt flower]

yeah

i was talking about the soundtrack...

[arctic grove]

Did they take out leaning?

[cobalt flower]

there's no leaning in 2042

[arctic grove]

Unfortunate

[cobalt flower]

eh, not too big of an issue

[arctic grove]

The soundtrack is mostly up to personal interpretation. But I like it

[bold steppe]

free laning is there in siege only i guess

[radiant prism]

Yeah. Would be nice to have it, but its not the end of the world by any means

[radiant prism]

Free leaning actually was in BFV

[arctic grove]

It allowed more dynamic gameplay

Makes it feel strategic

[radiant prism]

It did, but it wasn't crucial. It just gave a slight edge to those who could learn how to use it effectively

[arctic grove]

Kinda like how cod was before the run and gun

That’s what battlefield is to me old cod

[tribal obsidian]

Gonna say it rn every game needs free leaning and free look

[arctic grove]

Not halo

[junior zodiac]

What’s free look

[bold steppe]

i think battlefield need a close quarter siege based game mode too with destruction to make any sense of specialists but then it will be similar to r6 siege

[tribal obsidian]

Halo is the only exception

[arctic grove]

God imagine how bad that would be

[tribal obsidian]

You hold a button to look a different way than you run

[arctic grove]

No like leaning around corners

[tribal obsidian]

People would pixel peek with the sniper

[cobalt flower]

I'd be playing Battlefield V if it wasn't 90 gigs

[junior zodiac]

Ah

[arctic grove]

Fuck me I’d hate the game

[cobalt flower]

I need my SSD space bruh 😩

[tribal obsidian]

It'd be so awful

[arctic grove]

I got a terabyte of space on my console

Next or old gen?

[cobalt flower]

my hdd is a terabyte, but hard drives aren't the best for multiplayer games lol

[arctic grove]

Next

[cobalt flower]

I guess it couldn't hurt though...

[junior zodiac]

That’s why I have apex on my ssd

[arctic grove]

I saw a way to increase the PS5s space but I think it had taking apart a bunch of screws that I’ll probably end up forgetting where they go

[junior zodiac]

Minecraft has really good texture caching

[arctic grove]

I got the series x

[radiant prism]

Doing any kind of hardware modification like that is risky though and almost always voids your warranty

[arctic grove]

Yea true

[cobalt flower]

right to repair 😔

[arctic grove]

I’m a halo fanboy

[bold steppe]

i played battlefield V recently ,it was fun but then it became kind of repetitive and i uninstalled it to play Elden Ring

[cobalt flower]

I still need to play reach - 3

[arctic grove]

You haven’t played 3

[cobalt flower]

I have the MCC, but god the control schemes on mouse and keyboard are so weird

[cobalt flower]

the only Halo I've beaten was 4, as it was my first one lol

[arctic grove]

Same

[hexed mango]

👽

[arctic grove]

I was born 08 so halo was the first game I officially owned

Hahahaha dice where are those patch notes? 🙃🙃🙃

[arctic grove]

Dice is dead

[radiant prism]

I would go back and play BFV...but I don't own it on PC and I had it on Xbox. Also I had 1.2k hours so I really don't have a ton of incentive to go back and play it

[arctic grove]

If I recall correctly they usually release patch notes right before an update

Bro I’m 14

[radiant prism]

holy fuck stop making me feel old

[cobalt flower]

lmao

[hexed mango]

usually the night before, and updates release on thursdays usually

[radiant prism]

I'm only 20 but damn

[arctic grove]

I can drive in two years

How does that feel

[cobalt flower]

something something 14 year old playing rated M games

[radiant prism]

[hexed mango]

imagine not driving

[cobalt flower]

20 year old gang

[arctic grove]

Like u never did don’t lie

I’m 17, which means I’m legally obligated to have sex in Ireland

[hexed mango]

nice

[radiant prism]

Wait, obligated?

[arctic grove]

Sus

[arctic grove]

I think I can have a light beer in Germany

[hexed mango]

yes. don’t question it

[radiant prism]

[hexed mango]

[arctic grove]

Where you guys the ones who yelled at me to kill myself when I was 4

If so thank you

[radiant prism]

What is happening

[arctic grove]

It’s nostalgic

[calm bison]

I’m gonna say it but the condor is better and cooler than the hind

[hexed mango]

you remember things from when you were 4? damn. i don’t remember things from last year

[radiant prism]

Based

[arctic grove]

Honestly I dunno, I’m bored

[grizzled whale]

the hind can take more hits

[arctic grove]

Haven’t lived for very long bro can remember nearly everything

[calm bison]

The condor is faster

[hexed mango]

😢

[arctic grove]

Condor go zoom tho

I figured the hind would be stronger since with VTOL Condour can zip out of a bad situation easily

[grizzled whale]

condor mostly go in straight line

[calm bison]

Although I will give the hind the ability to listen to the radio

[grizzled whale]

ntw into engines go brrrrrrrrrrrrt

[arctic grove]

Lmao I have no responsibility

[calm bison]

The condor can’t do that

[arctic grove]

You have to pay taxes?

[calm bison]

Meaning I can’t listen to Fox News while flying my expensive American helicopter plane thing

[hexed mango]

:( don’t mention it please

[arctic grove]

When does that start?

[grizzled whale]

you dont have to pay taxes when you simply commit tax fraud

[arctic grove]

Cause I don’t wanna do that

[grizzled whale]

life hack

[arctic grove]

Just about to make this joke 😐

Goddamit

[grizzled whale]

angel did it again

[hexed mango]

well technically i already paid taxes cause like i’m a dependent, and i make minimum wage. i’m not that old yet. i am however on a trip looking at colleges rn

[grizzled whale]

and with "it" they mean tax fraud

[hexed mango]

more money for me

[arctic grove]

Imagine not committing tax fraud

[radiant prism]

Yeah the hind has to be tankier

Since it doesn't have the same mobility as the Condor

Can I just say though that the Condor conceptually is fucking dope

[arctic grove]

Yes it is indeed

[hexed mango]

agreed. i’ve also seen some mad sweats fly that thing crazy

like upside down spins turns and just mad elegancy

[arctic grove]

Going into high school in a few months shits crazy

The V-22 itself is a very controversial aircraft in the military so I can’t imagine what they’d think seeing one with jet engines

Apparently it shreds nightbirds if you use it right

It shreds every aircraft

[radiant prism]

Just wait until you get into college

[arctic grove]

Yeah but collage is fun apparently

[calm bison]

Now which is better- F35 or SU57

[arctic grove]

Yesterday I was flying one and I had one gunner, I was easily able to chase down this Russian jet and my gunner incinerated it

[radiant prism]

Its fun when you're not stressed as hell

Source: am sitting in my college statistics class right now as we speak

[arctic grove]

I’m so excited 🙃

The F35 is better on maps like kaleidoscope or any map with cover you can VTOL between or inside of. But on more open maps like manifest it kind of sucks against the SU57

[arctic grove]

I’m sitting in history

[calm bison]

Also I have to ask - what is the best map for 128 player conquest

[grizzled whale]

Manifest

[calm bison]

Cuz I’m stuck on last gen and haven’t gotten to experience 128 yet

[arctic grove]

Wow gotta love that

I enjoy orbital and manifest

[radiant prism]

Manifest is good, Orbital is decent

Parts of every other map are pretty great, but its hit or miss

[arctic grove]

Orbital has like no fucking cover

Same with all the maps actually

[calm bison]

I mean like compared to other maps it has a decent amount

[radiant prism]

More cover than Renewal

[arctic grove]

Is that the desert city

[calm bison]

I feel like dice should replace B sector on Hourglass conquest with more skyscrapers

[radiant prism]

That's hourglass, renewal is the one with the wall through the middle

[arctic grove]

Renewal is pain

[arctic grove]

I feel like dice should fix the fucking game

[calm bison]

Hopefully the April patch should do some work

[arctic grove]

We can dream

[calm bison]

If we ever get any news on it

[arctic grove]

Renewal is especially bad for F35s as I said since there isn’t really anywhere you can quickly trigger vtol at to make the SU57 get ahead of you

[radiant prism]

No, the village is some of the most fun fighting in the game if you ask me. Just need more cover elsewhere

[arctic grove]

Can’t believe vanguard is a better game than this

[calm bison]

Also can we have some tank carcasses scattered around hourglass? It’s implied that there was a previous battle of doha

[arctic grove]

I like to trash on the yearly cod but not battlefield

[arctic grove]

And not die to a wildcat or infantry, or for example like kaleidoscope where I always see F35s go VTOL between the skyscrapers

[calm bison]

Cuz in the lore, the US and Russia clash at Doha over data drives. In game, the US and Russia clash over a Russian shipment

[arctic grove]

Battlefield Ukraine edition

[calm bison]

So give us some destroyed tanks and aircraft

On hourglass

[arctic grove]

That’s a good idea

[hexed mango]

the russian shipment is the drives

[arctic grove]

Wonder when the first Ukraine game will come to surface and the amount of controversy it will cause

[calm bison]

Watch the exodus movie. Rao explains that the US has a satellite that’s gonna fall into Doha

[arctic grove]

I think Fallujah was a good enough lesson

[calm bison]

Also the podcast

[steep skiff]

Has Dice fixed the game yet?

[calm bison]

No

[steep skiff]

Ok 👋

[hexed mango]

yes i know, and russia is going to get there first and they need to stop them because it could be the fate of the war. the shipment they attack is the satellite with the drives

[slow kraken]

Revolution of killing of the fanbase the fastest?

[radiant prism]

The satellite can actually be found near E flag

[flat brook]

That’s your opinion. It hasn’t killed the fanbase

Battlefield 2042 is a modern revolution in the gaming industry

[slow kraken]

It's not my opinion it's facts

[flat brook]

It’s a game that’s changing the trends, and for the better.

[slow kraken]

Trends of being bad?

[flat brook]

You can thank the talented devs for that

It’s not bad. It’s great.

[cyan trout]

Delusions are free

Possibly

[fiery shoal]

im assuming they are taking the piss, even if not you guys dont gotta heckle him for liking a game

[arctic grove]

Good job mods

[fiery shoal]

#2 mini mod right here

[slow kraken]

He can like the game but we can't allow him to spread these false lies

[arctic grove]

But yeah, he's just trying to gaslight everyone into liking this game

[fiery shoal]

seems like hes just the opposite side of the coin

[cyan trout]

People in here get heckled for not liking the game there is no interference there

[still vault]

Where's your purple?

[arctic grove]

Is joking about dice paying this guy harassment?

[fiery shoal]

technically theres no rules against heckling doomers, but of course if someone breaks the rules against someone not liking the game i also call them out

[fiery shoal]

regular has 3 colors to choose from: brown, green and purple. i just changed it

[arctic grove]

He can be entitled to his own opinion but he don't gotta tell everyone to like this game

i was enjoying 2042

[cyan trout]

The feelings lol

[still vault]

Ignore it or provide counter arguments. Don't attack the user. It's not hard.

[arctic grove]

Playing 2042 right now

bruh were on the internet

[arctic grove]

Didn't attack

ppl don't gaf if you have an opinion

No swear words were said

[foggy crest]

trash rule

[fiery shoal]

you apparently dont know the fucking rules...

[foggy crest]

completely one side

[glossy storm]

Oh.

[still vault]

you are fucking right

[arctic grove]

If I should ignore their gaslighting, how about you ignore harassment

[fiery shoal]

"youre a piece of trash that shouldnt exist on this world, especially for liking 2042"
"dont heckle the guy"
"i didnt swear though"
...

[glossy storm]

You think they're baiting? Some people genuinely like this game. Believe it and accept it.

Ignore their so-called gaslighting.

[arctic grove]

I didn't say shit like that, the fuck?

[arctic grove]

cod mw2019 sucks then

I just said "how much is dice paying you?"

[foggy crest]

i mean i have seen many times in this server that those who like the game harass those who dont and they were just saying what they dont like and then those who like the game started harassing

[fiery shoal]

its an example to showcase how you saying "i didnt cuss" means nothing in regards to heckling someone...

[foggy crest]

better than any battlefield game

[arctic grove]

cold war is actually better than mw tbh

[arctic grove]

Yeah because I didn't call anyone mean words

[fiery shoal]

thats not how that works...

[arctic grove]

Or does it?

[safe kettle]

Yo, first time on a forum style app in years and adults are arguing. Nothing changes, all I wanted was to find a few U.K. based gamers

[arctic grove]

bruh every game has flaws, so does mw2019. the gane has bad map design and balancing issues

[fiery shoal]

i dont play cod games, but i got cold war for free and i liked it. just seems like standard cod

[still vault]

No matter what people are saying you can do a few things. You can either ignore it or you can engage, disagree, agree etc. and join the discussion. What you shouldn't do is being disrespectful and going after the person you disagree with instead of trying to counter their argument. Discussion 101.

[foggy crest]

blah blah blah

[fiery shoal]

buT My CoUnTer WaS AsKing If DiCe PaID ThEM

[arctic grove]

Hey man shut your mouth before I start feeling like I'm being harassed

I'll tell m*ds

[arctic grove]

I liked cold war too but cod rn is going through an idenity crisis

[fiery shoal]

youre more than welcome to

[arctic grove]

the fuck?

[safe kettle]

Cod is built for pre teens with mental reflexes

[fiery shoal]

idk any time i hear someone say cod is changing i play it and it feels like 90% of what cods from 10 years ago feels like still

[safe kettle]

Yeah in their head

[fiery shoal]

the biggest change to cod that i played was mw2019

[arctic grove]

holy crud i feel like carbonic will call the fbi on me

[cyan trout]

Wish I could read

[still vault]

https://tenor.com/view/calling-phone-call-fbi-tom-and-jerry-tom-gif-16115215

[cyan trout]

[arctic grove]

bruh regardless if you enjoy 2042 or not at least don't be a douche and attack people who enjoy the game

[arctic grove]

you did that to me didn't you

[brittle forge]

hopefully mw2022 builds on what made mw2019 good. Only new cod I’ve truly enjoyed in like the past 10 years

[arctic grove]

I've got 150 hours on bf2042 and I think game is kinda bad

[brittle forge]

I just stopped playing it honestly. I don’t absolutely hate my time with it but the only thing I like in it is Breakthrough, and the limited sandbox doesn’t really scream at me that I should stay (I put like 60 hours in)

[cyan trout]

I would love to share my thoughts on why I agree with you @arctic grove but pretty sure I would just get attacked by knights in white armor with rose tinted glasses

[arctic grove]

I spent 4 hours on the game and I asked microsoft to refund my digital copy

Even Gabe Newell is giving out refunds

[wide shore]

Not bad

[arctic grove]

Laughs in 90d on d2

[brittle forge]

I’ll try it again when s1 rolls around but I’m personally not holding my breath that this thing is going to be amazing all of the sudden when that drops

[vivid rampart]

Laughs with 20hrs

[glossy storm]

It'll take its sweet time.

Also, I hope that the new data-mined maps are true.

[tribal obsidian]

Eh.

[arctic grove]

I’m back

[fiery shoal]

i barely got to 60ish hours and most of that was with friends, who would make anything fun

[arctic grove]

Wsg

[brittle forge]

did you finish the fight, Chief?

[arctic grove]

No my developers left faster than my dad

[wide shore]

I only got that much time in Minecraft

[brittle forge]

damn that sucks bro

[arctic grove]

Fr

[fiery shoal]

i dont think i have over 1k hours on any single game...

[karmic cobalt]

I plead the fifth

[brittle forge]

I have it on Destiny 2

other than that, I put something like 500 into BF4

[arctic grove]

I’m sorry for your loss

[foggy crest]

because u got life nyphon

[arctic grove]

I've got 2500 hours on GTA V

[arctic grove]

Oof

[foggy crest]

i stopped play GTA V just after story mode ended

[hazy ruin]

@lucid goblet your in my bf2042 breakthrough hourglass game rn lmaoo

[foggy crest]

same with RDR2

[arctic grove]

Why won’t they update it 😔

[arctic grove]

Why would you even play on this map

[foggy crest]

i want GTA 6 with NEW YORK CITY map

LIBERTY CITY

[arctic grove]

I want GTA 6 IN GENERAL

[arctic grove]

I want all the maps in one map

[foggy crest]

sameeeeeeeee

[arctic grove]

If they don’t pull a fucking San Andreas I swear to god

Nothing will happen

[foggy crest]

that would be awesome tooo but i will be happy enough if its only LIBERTY CITY

[arctic grove]

Liberty city’s too small

[foggy crest]

but expectations willl be sooooooooo high

[arctic grove]

I wouldn’t mind a nyc game if it came out 6 years ago because then the hype wouldn’t be as much

Too late I want all maps

[fiery shoal]

roof top fights are fire, but thats like... 5% of the map and the rest sucks...

[arctic grove]

EVERYBODY TALK ABOUT 2042 BEFORE MODS ARE HERE

[arctic grove]

What’s there to talk about

[foggy crest]

u can play THE CREW 2 its graphics is ugly but map is huge

[arctic grove]

Wb stadium? I've never got to experience it cuz I'm on past gen

It’s dead

Well it's #battlefield-2042 sooo

Hey devs make a game that fucking works and we’ll talk about it

Based

[fiery shoal]

my bad, mixed up maps. yea stadium is really fucking fun, thankfully thats a big part, and hourglass has the rooftops too. (i thought of kaleidoscope at first)

[arctic grove]

Yes

[fiery shoal]

by definition 2042 works, maybe just barely though, but its definitely not fun or a good bf game at all

[steep jewel]

Is the game good yet?

[foggy crest]

👀

[arctic grove]

No

[brittle forge]

Check back when Season 1 drops

[wide shore]

I have 1k hours in a lot of games. But I have crippling anxiety so what else am I gonna do

[arctic grove]

💀

[fiery shoal]

i really dont see just content saving 2042

[arctic grove]

Dice devs when the half assed game they released is trash and nobody likes it 😭😭😭

[arctic grove]

Fr it’s going to need the next coming of Christ

Even then

[fiery shoal]

my biggest hope is more weapons so we can have locked loadouts again

[arctic grove]

They should move stadium closer to the city instead of this stupid fucking village that has an objective in it in the open

[foggy crest]

DICE devs are good in making destructible environment but not good in making a good FPS game

[steep jewel]

Will do 👍

[arctic grove]

Not even this anymore

[brittle forge]

Tbf in Portal the destruction is actually good

[lucid goblet]

same side or?

[foggy crest]

people expected more i think

[brittle forge]

So the game can do it

[flat brook]

I’m back, you straight up attacked me. You should just chill out and disengage if you’re gonna freak about someone having a different opinion to you. I feel very offended that you guys harassed me and i’d say good job to the moderator

[arctic grove]

Battlefield 1984 China warcrime DLC

[wide shore]

The destruction in the game is great. The maps just aren’t made full of destructible buildings.

[arctic grove]

Imagine if Ukraine battle was in the next bf game

[wide shore]

This isn’t very funny

[arctic grove]

It’s not a joke

[arctic grove]

Oh my god bro

[brittle forge]

I think the vanilla maps are just so big they cut out destruction

[arctic grove]

Like that would be cool

[arctic grove]

Don't take this idea ea damnit

[arctic grove]

Fuck you it was my idea

[worn sonnet]

bf 2042 should get a directors cut lol

[arctic grove]

Oh bad timing

[arctic grove]

Lol

[arctic grove]

They barely had content for a base game, tf u talking about

Civil war or Ukraine would be so sick

[flat brook]

That’s just your opinion. Again if you don’t like it don’t engage

[wide shore]

Here’s a video of the building I’m in being destroyed by the tornado and sucking me in.

[arctic grove]

Revive the battlefield chat

[flat brook]

It’s not against the rules for me to state that I like the game

[arctic grove]

Can you not talk

At least leave me alone

[wide shore]

I don’t think the best way to deal with a message being deleted by mods is to just repeat it.

[arctic grove]

Revive battlefield period

[flat brook]

Calm down man, don’t engage if you want me to leave you alone.

[steep jewel]

Bro just leave for an hour lol

[brittle forge]

I mean they could do an allegory conflict like MW19 used a fake country for Syria but going all out on “Ukraine war” is pretty insensitive

[arctic grove]

Rare GoPro footage of a man being taken to Brazil

[arctic grove]

Yeah it is maybe in like 10 years

[arctic grove]

Dude idc

[fiery shoal]

i think the biggest contribution is either lacking time or skills to implement building destruction and/or that the large buildings in 2042 dont lend to destruction well.. i mean our comparison is ww1 and ww2 games that were mostly small buildings that were getting destroyed.

[arctic grove]

I didn’t even notice

[arctic grove]

Manifest literally has an objective full of two story buildings and you can't destroy them nor break their walls

Civil war game tho

[steep jewel]

They're lacking a team of people willing to contribute effort to 2042. Especially now that they're onto the next game

[wide shore]

Objective B has destruction. The smaller building you can destroy basically all the walls. The bigger one does leave much to be desired.

[flat brook]

It would be dumb if you can destroy the walls. I think those buildings should remain indestructible for the sake of the gameplay, and include other, smaller destructible objects that would be more beneficial to the flow of the game

[arctic grove]

Gotta love the vanguard “my team” and “enemy team”

[brittle forge]

I wonder how many people are working on this game right now, I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s only like 30 people. For awhile Battlefront 2 had an extremely reduced crew

[steep jewel]

All guesses rounded down

[arctic grove]

Doesn't it suck when you have to look for destructible objects in a battlefield game huh

[brittle forge]

“Grandpa could you tell me of when you fought the Enemy Team”

[arctic grove]

It was a traumatic time for us all

[foggy crest]

that live stream was funny ngl

[arctic grove]

The enemy team was relentless

[glossy storm]

While I'm glad that it's functional, the destruction doesn't seem natural, but maybe I'm genuinely setting my expectations a bit too high.

[arctic grove]

Brutal expectations

[fiery shoal]

imo its a natural result when buildings are generally bigger

[wide shore]

This is the biggest problem. In previous games, destruction seemed more excessive because maps were made solely with a few assets copy/pasted. It’s different now.

People forget there’s tons of maps in BF4 that feature very little destruction too. Dawnbreaker for example has basically none.

[hearty flame]

I think anthem had like a dozen people only to try to save it. so maybe a bit more than that

[brittle forge]

BF3 destruction was pretty limited but it was used/distributed better across the map

[wide shore]

Another very good example.

[brittle forge]

I think destruction was at its height in like BFV and BC2

[fiery shoal]

i do think 2042 should be SOME destruction on large buildings, im not expecting to be able to bring them all down, but at least blow the walls out in certain areas like the outside walls to stadium on hourglass

[arctic grove]

Because it's made of skyscrapers

[foggy crest]

it was a game from 2013

[brittle forge]

BFV had help cause players could build fortifications that were fully destructible

[glossy storm]

At least Dawnbreaker still has a levolution...

[brittle forge]

I hope they bring fortifications back in the next game

[fiery shoal]

i think destruction helped in bfv since there werent very many large buildings

im trying to think of the largest destructible building in bfv and i can only think of a 2 story house...

[brittle forge]

I just like that you could destroy houses just by driving a tank into them

[arctic grove]

Someday they'll make a city map with fully destructible DICE office

[wide shore]

Kinda the same problem as 2042, no?

Also Dawnbreaker had smaller buildings, like that complex near the US (?) spawn. Completely indestructible. What about that giant facility on Lancang Dam? Indestructible. There’s tons of maps in that game that doesn’t feature like any destruction.

[shy latch]

a classic only in battlefield moment

[arctic grove]

I'm not talking about hourglass or kaleidoscope because it doesn't even have the cover to destroy

[wide shore]

You act as though that makes them incomparable. And yet people do it all the time.

[brittle forge]

Tbf Lancang’s Dam did have a Levolution attached to it. It’s not the same as the typical dynamic destruction but it wasn’t untouchable

[arctic grove]

You're just given a large grass field with with skyscrapers around it as an unplayable area

[brittle forge]

my favorite Levolution was Paracel Storm’s runaway ship

[foggy crest]

they achieved it 9 years ago even wayyyy earlier people will expect more when it is called next generation of fps

[arctic grove]

The storm siren gave me chills

[glossy storm]

Yeah, Kaleidoscope disappointed me so much in that aspect. Literally the map I was most hyped for...

[arctic grove]

Also you could destroy buildings on that map

[glossy storm]

I'm glad they'll be making changes to it, but it's not gonna be as radical as I hoped for...

[wide shore]

Then what maps are you comparing? Manifest that is mostly shipping containers? Have you played Noshar Canals recently? Orbital? You can destroy every wall on every building minus the big one. Have you played Operation Firestorm recently? Discarded? You can drop walls on the ships and destroy all the buildings that aren’t shipping containers.

Point is, it’s map design. Not the systems at play. Play the remade version of Arica Harbor and you’ll see that clear as day.

[arctic grove]

I was talking about manifest, which has smaller buildings and you brought out a whole ass metropolis map

[glossy storm]

One thing I'm gonna admit, the interior designs look awesome in Kaleidoscope.

[wide shore]

Manifest has 2 buildings on it. You can destroy almost the entirety of one, and the other one is semi-indestructible.

[arctic grove]

And renewal? Nothing is destructible there

[wide shore]

That is true. And is very disappointing.

I understand the big building at D. But the smaller ones should be.

[glossy storm]

Conceptually, Renewal does sound and appear fascinating. Practically, it's meh.

[arctic grove]

Should make a big building a levolution

[brittle forge]

Renewal’s E point actually has quite a bit, but it’s so underused it’s one of the areas they are cutting cause nobody goes there

[wide shore]

To my knowledge the only buildings you can destroy on manifest are the military instillation buildings at A, and the warehouse at E

[arctic grove]

If you can destroy a whole skyscraper or the hotel in bf4

[glossy storm]

I think flooding the agricultural fields could be a cool event in that map.

[fiery shoal]

thats specifically called levolution and apparently only used in bf4, so bf1 and bfv should get the same criticism

[wide shore]

I view levolution and “dynamic” destruction as two very different things

[fiery shoal]

both destruction, but levolution is a specific term for specific game(s)

[brittle forge]

Honestly I don’t want more outright destruction per se, I just want the environment to react more to being in warfare. A good example of what I mean is the Division games. They’re very little “destruction” but the environment reacts to getting shot with bullets. Concrete breaks off a wall, bottles get shattered and knock around, etc.

In this game you can throw a grenade inside a building and it will be spotless other than a black mark on the floor

[fiery shoal]

2042 really did get rid of a bunch of those details

[wide shore]

Micro destruction has never been DICE’s forte. Except maybe hardline and BF3’s Clock Quarters DLC

[foggy crest]

siege has that

[wide shore]

But that’s also all siege does have

Having both, while increasing the player number and map size just isn’t gonna happen.

[brittle forge]

I’m not even talking about being able to take down walls bit by bit in CQ’s manner, I just want more of a mess

[wide shore]

I think BF1/V did better in regards to having decent interiors in the buildings. But even then they were quite basic.

[brittle forge]

obviously I don’t care too much about it in this game, cause I think the ship has sailed, but I hope they incorporate more little things so the maps don’t feel so flat

[wide shore]

I see people all the time talking about how empty buildings are in 2042, but fail to realize that’s how they’ve always been

[foggy crest]

siege with battlefield maps will be the worst fps game

[hearty flame]

I dont think we'll be seeing any sort of micro destruction without big performance hits

[arctic grove]

At least bf1 and bfV had fully destructible environment

[brittle forge]

I mean it depends. BFV’s interiors were somewhat basic but I wouldn’t say it’s comparable to BF4’s completely empty buildings

[arctic grove]

Plus they had airships and bunkers doing big booms

[fiery shoal]

i dont think either of those two had fully destructible environments...

[brittle forge]

BF1 had a lot but it wasn’t BC2

Which is really the only one where you could level everything

[hearty flame]

And you could level and dig terrain to create some small cover with explosives

[fiery shoal]

ive not played BC series but ive always heard those are the games for destruction, every bf title ive played has more of a "selective destruction" approach

[arctic grove]

Can't level anything in 2042 AT ALL

[wide shore]

I’ll argue till my dying breath that BF1 offered more to destruction than BC2

[grizzled whale]

BF 1-V didnt have angel, so its pretty obvious which game is better

[brittle forge]

Certain maps on bf1 were pretty good (Quentin Scar) but you couldn’t dent half of the buildings on Amiens

[fiery shoal]

cant you completely destroy the small buildings in hourglass?

[grizzled whale]

not completely, cuz parts of them are under the sand

[wide shore]

You could actually destroy the facades to every building on Amiens. I’ve tried

[arctic grove]

They're attached to sand so it's pretty cringe cuz u cant level them

[brittle forge]

It depends on the map, certain BF1 maps (the more rural farm ones) were completely destructable

and it was great

[fiery shoal]

so the theme of small buildings are destructible but big arent have been present in most bf games it seems

[brittle forge]

It’s close but they don’t collapse like BC2 and some bf4 builds

[wide shore]

BF1 also offered more map variety, and didn’t sacrifice destruction on them. Like ballroom blitz. Big manor, but you could destroy all the walls, and even the roofs of the building with enough artillery.

[fiery shoal]

and it seems 2042 features more big buildings than small (which could have been intentional)

[arctic grove]

Well why didn't bf2042 change that? They even showed us the demo of a destructible skyscraper

[brittle forge]

I mean BF3 had a destructible multi story building but it was only used in the campaign

[fiery shoal]

the tech demo that wasnt said to be coming to any specific title?

[brittle forge]

(The sniper that you shot with the at4)

[arctic grove]

Well why don't they implement it since there's a huge "next gen era" in the trailer

[wide shore]

For some reason BF3 didn’t let you collapse 2 story buildings.

Amiens BTW

[arctic grove]

Nothing about 2042 is next gen, in fact even bf1 had better graphics on my ps4 than 2042

[fiery shoal]

performance... theres voxel based games that dont even have that level of destruction just because of how taxing it is

[arctic grove]

Okay make scripted animations for skyscrapers

[brittle forge]

I think you could to a very specific building prefab. The one I remember was on Kharg Island by a fuel depot

I think the same prefab was at the top if Damavand peak?

But it was like literally the only collapsible one in the entire game

[fiery shoal]

even that isnt performance free.. its all a balancing act, i can ask for siege levels of destruction in a single building, doesnt mean its even possible to add to a bf title

[wide shore]

They used that same one on Caspian. But I believe it’s only a 1 story. And it was reused from BC2. I remember it on Nelson Bay

[foggy crest]

maybe after 10 years maybe

[fiery shoal]

eh, id argue that siege levels of destruction in a large scale game just doesnt make sense, especially in terms of performance

[brittle forge]

You won’t see completely destroyable urban city maps with Battlefield’s fidelity for another 10 years at least

[arctic grove]

"They don't have the tech"

[wide shore]

TBF nobody does

[fiery shoal]

well seemingly NO ONE has the tech...

[brittle forge]

This but unironically. No one has the tech to level something like Siege of Shanghai

[foggy crest]

if this game was only RTX 3090 Ti exclusive maybe 👀

MAYBE

[brittle forge]

Not in real-time anyway

[fiery shoal]

as boring and disappointing as 2042 is, on a technical level theres really nothing else out there that "has the tech" 2042 does

[arctic grove]

That's why kaleidoscope has like 3 skyscrapers that you can actually enter

[brittle forge]

Battlebit has completely destructible cities but it looks like Roblox. It’s a balancing act

[wide shore]

Maps are impressive in size. Draw distance is actually insane. Huge physics events like the tornado in a multiplayer space? Kinda crazy. All while looking how it does? Kinda impressive.

[foggy crest]

FORTNITE

[brittle forge]

Maybe the tech was just used better but BF1/BFV feels more advanced to me outside of like the storms

[arctic grove]

It bothers me that they for some reason removed the moving pictures from hourglass buildings on past gen

Like it doesn't even affect performance

[wide shore]

“While looking the way it does”

[fiery shoal]

having half the player count an in turn smaller maps sizes can do that

[foggy crest]

its just artstyle choice

[brittle forge]

the storms in 2042 are visually impressive but outside of fucking with in game gravity they don’t really do anything, not even leave a mark

[wide shore]

One that benefits massively for performance.

[foggy crest]

and 2042 isnt the most impressive looking game

[fiery shoal]

fortnite is really impressive with all the tech, but if you ever get even 50 people in a small area the performance takes a massive hit, not to mention you can look at fortnite and easily tell what would be harder to make

[cobalt flower]

gosh, i'd love for fortnite to get a battlefield esque mode

[arctic grove]

Fortnite field

[cobalt flower]

[brittle forge]

Just bring back and expand Fortifications in the next BF, essentially that

[fiery shoal]

of course minecraft is in part an artistic choice too, doesnt mean its not easier to run

[foggy crest]

and 2042 runs smooth as butter

[wide shore]

The biggest problem DICE have rn, and it’s been this way since at least BF3. Is that people expect Battlefield to look incredible.

[fiery shoal]

thats not what im saying at all, but considering you can occasionally get half a server one on objective and it performs better than fortnite is impressive

[brittle forge]

BF2042 doesn’t look bad, it just looks flat

[arctic grove]

Frostbite is an impressive looking engine and they hire the worst ppl to work with it

[hearty flame]

Its a proprietary engine so its not like the average programmer will have much experience with it
It makes brain drain a whole lot more of an issue

[foggy crest]

thats nice

[brittle forge]

it’s an alright looking game objectively it just doesn’t feel like anything

It’s like a basic GMod map in terms of personality

[wide shore]

2042 doesn’t suffer from bad graphics. It suffers from a bad art style. You see a picture of BF1 and you can immediately go “yeah that’s BF1”

[fiery shoal]

the lighting tech behind 2042 is apparently really impressive. though people dont care if the tech is impressive, they just care if they like how it looks

[cobalt flower]

fr

[wide shore]

Same way with BF3 and it’s iconic blue tint.

[brittle forge]

The only place I’ve really seen it is inside B on Kaleidoscope

B on breakthrough anyway

[cobalt flower]

what place is that?

[wide shore]

The data center

[brittle forge]

The big central building on Kaleidoscope

[cobalt flower]

is that the dome

[fiery shoal]

i turn everything low and dont care for graphics in a mp shooter, so i dont really notice myself

[brittle forge]

In the middle of the park

[cobalt flower]

ahhh

[brittle forge]

Yea I don’t run on great settings either

[cobalt flower]

yeah the lighting there is sick.

I run on medium, game looks pretty great.

[hearty flame]

Reminds me of when you could run V with minecraft graphics with nvidia

[cyan trout]

I would've been happy if it looked like BC2 tbh.

[brittle forge]

swapping between low medium and high gives no performance hit/benefit to me. It’s really fucking odd

Ultra tanks by like 20 fps but that’s whatever

[hearty flame]

Id take bc2s artistic graphics over 2042s realistic graphics

[fiery shoal]

i like how bfv looks the most

[foggy crest]

artstyle wise BF1 is the best BF

[fiery shoal]

i literally just wanted bfv but modern... damnit

[cyan trout]

That would've been sick

[brittle forge]

The best looking Frostbite games to me are BF1 and Battlefront 2

[foggy crest]

best looking FROSTBITE game is

[brittle forge]

I think Need for Speed Heat was frostbite too, that was really good

[foggy crest]

INFINITE WARFARE

[brittle forge]

Need for Speed Rivals looked good

[arctic grove]

They're not even realistic. It has no atmosphere. Graphics are extremely bland and the ligtning sucks

[brittle forge]

That was definitely frostbite

[foggy crest]

Heat looks weird sometimes imo best looking NFS is NFS 2015

[arctic grove]

Tell that to bf1

[brittle forge]

I literally said BF1 my guy

[hearty flame]

I know. Its why Id take bc2s over 2042s. But against something like 1 or V, its a bit tougher

[arctic grove]

Bf 4 graphics looked natural and very good

[foggy crest]

NATURAL ?

[arctic grove]

I can't say the same about 2042 because the graphics suck ass

[brittle forge]

What I don’t like about five and 2042 compared to battlefield one is that for some reason they did something to the antialiasing that made everything look away fuzzier

[arctic grove]

Yeah it had an atmosphere to it and good lighting

[brittle forge]

It’s really apparent in character models

[hearty flame]

Ya V was fuzzy

[brittle forge]

Also for some reason I don’t think you can turn off the anti-aliasing unless you literally go into the files yourself

Which isn’t hard but that’s really stupid

[arctic grove]

And wth is with frostbite engine that makes everything pixely when u have dlss on

[foggy crest]

lighting is better in 2042 afterall BF4 is 9 years old game in comparison but atmosphere definitely is good in BF4

[arctic grove]

Explosions and shit

[cobalt flower]

dlss just does that with particle effects....

its not an engine specific thing

[brittle forge]

nah dlss will literally blur your image if you have it on particular settings

[cobalt flower]

yes cause.... its dlss

dlss is literally downscaling and then upscaling your game.

[brittle forge]

Yeah but image quality is not “just particle effects” is my point

[arctic grove]

Looks like ass, like holy shit it's abhorrent

[brittle forge]

In this game dlss doesn’t even seem to do that much performance-wise , it looks worse than other titles when it’s on for some reason

No idea why

[cobalt flower]

I run mine on auto and don't notice any loss of quality

I know ultra performance will make it look like shit, but I imagine most of the time my rig is running it on balanced

[grave prism]

when is patch day

[tiny imp]

probably this month

[brittle forge]

No-vem-ber

[hearty flame]

Well they said april
dunno what year though

[tiny imp]

💤

Hope is not will be another delay again

[hearty flame]

Realistically Id say the 19th so that they can do some final verifications and then get patch certified

[cobalt flower]

using dldsr in tandem with dlss would fix the particle effects iirc

[wise zodiac]

OI, M8. Where you be at, dawg?!
