battlefield-2042

[white geyser]

You god damn Mofo, you’re still here!

[austere kiln]

Ill play 42 when they have updated it enough the playerbase comes back and i feel like its worth what i paid for it

[arctic grove]

makes sense brother

[hexed mango]

probably season 1, come back at start of summer

[arctic grove]

ye

[austere kiln]

Probably

[arctic grove]

Summer

[hexed mango]

it feels like summer in cali rn 🥵🥵🥵

[cobalt flower]

though, here's my two cents on the matter. Hot take, having specialist gadgets on top of normal gadgets makes the game a lot more fun
Hate tanks? Bring a rocket launcher, no matter who you're playing as.

[austere kiln]

Till then ill b8 people who think its a god given miracle and refuse to see the faults

[arctic grove]

I know

[cobalt flower]

i would like the specialists to reflect the archetypes a bit more, but i think its a fantastic direction for the franchise

[arctic grove]

Thats basically never

[austere kiln]

Quiet weeb

[cobalt flower]

lmao

[arctic grove]

are u sure u aren’t the one being baited?

[white geyser]

Summer time 🏖🏖

[hexed mango]

tomorrow i’ll be in sd, it’s only low 80s-86, but where i actually live it will be 91

[arctic grove]

He is being master baited

[arctic grove]

[cobalt flower]

praying for you if you live in the valley

[austere kiln]

Nah some people like the weeb are genuinely that fucking stupid

[hexed mango]

my home is in the valley but luckily i’m not there rn 😎😎

[cyan trout]

Your opinion is valid even though I disagree with both points.

[arctic grove]

why do u think he’s a weeb? is it cause his discord name?

[arctic grove]

Valley nerd

[hexed mango]

ok well if you want to be precise i technically live in the bay area , but near the valley side

[tranquil turtle]

one of the mods lives in texas, yesterday he was talking about consistently having temps over 100 💀

[arctic grove]

https://tenor.com/view/west-side-tupac-shoulder-shrug-2pac-2pac-west-side-gif-5503678

[hexed mango]

technically i’m east side of the bay area

[arctic grove]

damn if it’s consistently 100+ there imagine Nevada

[cyan trout]

East bay fire season about to start

[arctic grove]

I’m going to drop a condor at your house if that’s cool

[hexed mango]

death valley is 100+

[white geyser]

Any battlefield games and if I see anime profile or emblem, that’s my chance to hunt them down

[austere kiln]

I make assumptions because its funny levvy-boy

[arctic grove]

Bf4 on xbox has tons. I can confirm

my chances of getting mad at an fps significantly increase if someone’s emblem is anime

especially a smug anime face

don’t take notes

[hexed mango]

ig it’s not 100+ every day

[arctic grove]

[cyan trout]

Noted

[tranquil turtle]

it's 60 something here 🥶

[hexed mango]

yeah lol that’s what it looks like at my home this week

[arctic grove]

[cobalt flower]

Oo nice, I was born in Alameda!

[arctic grove]

ah yes.. Fahrenheit, United States are like the Bahamas, the Cayman Islands, Liberia, Palau, the Federated States of Micronesia, and the Marshall Islands

[white geyser]

I been to California where Disneyland and it wasn’t hot probably 80 Fahrenheit

[hexed mango]

(this isn’t where i live, but is where i am rn)

[cobalt flower]

Bless

[arctic grove]

so on, Friday you can cook your water in the air - Celsius

[hexed mango]

damn SF is a nice 87 rn

then the rest of the week it’s like 40-60

[tranquil turtle]

how does one cook water

I've heard of boiling water, but cooking it? how do I obtain this power

[white geyser]

Cook a water? that doesn’t work

Boiling water works

[arctic grove]

in Germany it works

[sleek latch]

Soup is just cooking water

[hexed mango]

🥵

[arctic grove]

Can you make me some I’m hungry

[white geyser]

https://tenor.com/view/sopita-de-fideo-noodle-soup-mexican-noodles-gif-15167113

[sleek latch]

Get burgers instead, here

[white geyser]

Maybe some noodle soup will help me out, while playing 2042

[arctic grove]

I’m actually having a burger tbh

[white geyser]

https://tenor.com/view/big-buger-eat-buger-the-rock-burger-gif-22532545

[arctic grove]

[arctic grove]

Good anime

[white geyser]

Give me a big burger 🍔 so I can send it to my soldiers before entering 2042

[silk surge]

A while ago, I heard from a friend who knows a guy who used to work at DICE on 2042 that there would be a map that would be released near the end of Season 1 called 'Operation Metro 2042'. I didn't believe him at first, but after seeing Temproyal's latest data mine, there might be something to it.

[cobalt flower]

people who hate this game really are something else

a dude really went through my reddit history because he hated my "I like this game" post in lowsodium2042

[cobalt flower]

operation blackout perhaps?

[silk surge]

Maybe. Either way, 'black out' is 100% something metro related.

[cobalt flower]

where is metro btw?

France or England right?

[silk surge]

France I'm pretty sure

[opal cedar]

when's the next patch

[cobalt flower]

right now

[silk surge]

Wait what

[arctic grove]

It is?

[tranquil turtle]

that's just a reddit moment

everyone on every 2042 sub puts the blame on the devs for "not doing their job"

[cobalt flower]

Season 2 is out right now

[arctic grove]

That’s Reddit for you

[tranquil turtle]

they're so braindead

[arctic grove]

I was about to say but then I was wait a minute

[silk surge]

I've had a similar experience. I said something along the lines of "I don't get why people are so worked up about what the beanie is called", and someone got so mad that they went through my history and then told me to go back to my safespace in lowsodium2042 and let the 'grown men talk'. I cringed so hard.

[cobalt flower]

Redditors are also mad that they're starting development of the next game

[tranquil turtle]

🗿 I heard

[cobalt flower]

Douglas Fir would never troll

[arctic grove]

I had people on the PS5 sub Reddit down vote me to bits because I told them I enjoy 2042

[tranquil turtle]

it's common practice to do that though

it's fun I just don't consider it a real bf game

[chilly oak]

Even though they said abandon 2042

[arctic grove]

I don’t rake redditors seriously, I lose brain cells when I’m on there

[cobalt flower]

Lmao, the dude found a post I made on the Starfield sub that was clearly a shitpost and said "Cringe post, I guess I shouldn't expect more from a Battlefailed 2042 fanboy"

[arctic grove]

[silk surge]

That's just outright psychotic.

[cobalt flower]

It's strange for sure

[arctic grove]

Idk what gaming headset to use for my new PC. HyperX or SteelSeries

[silk surge]

Steelseries arctis pro

[arctic grove]

I have the wireless version of it actually

[cobalt flower]

i use my mdr-7506s lol

[wary idol]

anyone else find the repair tool glitchy or am i not using it right

[arctic grove]

I like the HyperX too but I hate wired headsets

[silk surge]

Stick with it, I've heard that it's the best when it comes to 3d sound in fps games.

[arctic grove]

Alright I’ll try it out tomorrow

[cobalt flower]

im lazy so i use my laptop speakers

i dont like to wear headphones if i can help it

[arctic grove]

I use to use two big speakers & a subwoofer but not anymore lol

[silk surge]

headphones are essential for fps games. Need to hear dem footstep sounds

[arctic grove]

Yeah

[silk surge]

I'm using Playstation's own Pulse 3d headset for my PS5.

[cobalt flower]

confirmed foot fetishist

[silk surge]

It's more of being aware of your surroundings fetish

[arctic grove]

I use the Pro wireless for mine, & when my PC comes tomorrow I’ll use on there as well. Since I’m on full on switching to PC

[cobalt flower]

dont need to hear foot steps when you can just whip out your M5 and blast em to kingdom come

[arctic grove]

[silk surge]

Yeah, but you would have to know where to point your M5 at.

Otherwise you'll get glitchy third person melee takedowned instead.

[arctic grove]

Which one to try

[silk surge]

Completely unbiased chart

[arctic grove]

[cobalt flower]

idk how to even setup shadowplay

[arctic grove]

I know how to use it’s nice

[cobalt flower]

is it not in geforce experience

[silk surge]

It's funny, you often don't see a brand straight up namedropping one of their competitors like that.

[arctic grove]

You need to press alt plus z then the overlay will show up

[cobalt flower]

oh so is shadowplay just the recording software

[silk surge]

yeah

[cobalt flower]

oh lol

[arctic grove]

Time to save up for this now

[silk surge]

[tranquil turtle]

hourglass is more empty 💀

or renewal

[silk surge]

Renewal is practically a flat surface with a wall in the middle.

[severe carbon]

Free for all on Renewal is just unplayable, I will never know why they chose to make the play area literally a flat field

[edgy oriole]

i like the battles of A1/2, B and C1 of renewal. (im talking about whatever is the top to the 2 C points)

[silk surge]

I really hope that they bring BFV to PORTAL. Imagine how epic US vs. Japan on Wake Island with 128 players would be.

[edgy oriole]

thats what im saying. bring pacific to portal

[silk surge]

They don't even have to add BFV, just put more content into 1942 PORTAL.

[severe carbon]

Id love BF1, especially the vehicles, theyd look so out of place lmao

[silk surge]

Although I hope they bring back BFV. Solomon Islands is my most favorite Battlefield map of all time. The gameplay flow of that map was just perfect in almost every game.

[silk surge]

Artillery Truck goes brrrrrrr

[edgy oriole]

all i could ask for is iwo jima portal 128. id live in there.

[silk surge]

Oh god, the cave sector would be complete chaos haha

Imagine managing to slip in there with a Katana and getting the biggest killstreak in gaming history.

or a flamethrower

[severe carbon]

bfbc2 vietnam would be fun as well, Hill 137 is one of my all time favorite maps

would be fantastic for TDM / FFA as well

[edgy oriole]

did bc2 have vietnam?

[severe carbon]

yeah it was a DLC

[edgy oriole]

oh never played the dlc in my childhood times.

[silk surge]

I actually started playing Battlefield religiously during the end of BC2, during the massive BF3 hype timeline. I strongly regret never getting the vietnam DLC. I just played the vanilla version.

[severe carbon]

I got so hooked on BC2 Vietnam I think I skipped or almost entirely skipped BF3

[silk surge]

I played BF3 from start to finish, I miss those days.

[edgy oriole]

honestly after bc i went to exclusively cod

[silk surge]

So many hours spent on a Caspian Border 24/7 server, got to know so many regulars there over the years.

The admins of that server made a Hainan Resort/Siege of Shanghai rotation server when BF4 launched.

[arctic grove]

How many hours / days to new weekly?

[cobalt flower]

i cant wait for them to give 2042 linux support

apex already has it, so any day now

[silk surge]

Game population will skyrocket once the Linux gamers gets their hands on 2042.

[hexed mango]

should come out at like early morning thursday, it’s noon or smth in gmt+0 iirc

[edgy oriole]

oh i forgot what day it was. i thought weekly just came out

[hexed mango]

@edgy oriole join DOCE

[copper fulcrum]

How it feels when two Little Birds engage on Kaleidoscope

[silk surge]

yuuup

[hexed mango]

we have a grand total of 2 employees

[silk surge]

Along with a random missile lock-on on me the moment I engage with the enemy littlebird, which forces me to disengage while being chased by enemy littlebird.

[cobalt flower]

it'd be funny as fuck tbh

[copper fulcrum]

Two Condors fighting also feels like that

[cobalt flower]

just make 2042 open source, what could go wrong

I wonder if the PS5 is also based on BSD

[silk surge]

I've developed a fear of engaging in dogfights while on Nightbird because of this. If anyone interupts with missile, I'm completely fucked because now I have to get away from there fast while still being in the middle of a dogfight.

[compact sleet]

Bro in my jet I randomly get those so when I actually get a missile lock on I don’t try and lose it I just do whatever I’m doing. Unless I see an enemy jet. But it’s so annoying cause I always end up getting killed by the xm whatever

[warped pulsar]

I have the ghost version of that

[arctic grove]

Is 2042 having server problems? I’m not getting any lobbies in NA

[copper fulcrum]

I used to be called XM8

[edgy oriole]

bruh when cantaloupe season i wanna thicc one.

[scenic tartan]

In conquest there are about a dozen threats to the little bird at any given moment

In breakthrough they are pretty strong because there's too many air vehicles on attack and because you generally know where the locks are coming from

Rao is the dumbest specialist because his kit is extremely overpowered to helis but useless against everything else

[hexed mango]

lel it’s useful against casper

[scenic tartan]

against the drone?

[edgy oriole]

ye. rao spank drones

[scenic tartan]

https://tenor.com/view/unsure-curb-enthusiasm-doubt-idk-gif-4548077

still useless

have you ever tried to hack infantry, its a good way to get back to the spawn screen

[arctic grove]

[edgy oriole]

i miss my 2042 captures 😦

[arctic grove]

Download steelseries moments

[edgy oriole]

i record clips with xbox companion thing.

[arctic grove]

Oh I’m going to give SteelSeries moment a download so I can clip 30 second clips

[pearl zenith]

I suck at using fighter jets in this game💀even at 100 hours. Anyone got good controller settings?

[arctic grove]

Nope

[golden hornet]

Well

[arctic grove]

[cobalt flower]

you work for Dice and Microsoft?

[arctic grove]

Doce pog

[cobalt flower]

Doce pog indeed

[slate mist]

is it just me or do the Eotech sights feel like garbage on 2042

they should be 1.25x, not 1.5x

[tranquil turtle]

in bf3 they had that crazy magnification

[tribal obsidian]

There's an Eotech in battlefield 2042?

[slate mist]

the 1.5x holosights

technically its a vortex and another one though

[subtle imp]

so theres only a single HC conquest server up apparently, and this child is running around TKing everyone he finds... :/

[white geyser]

In the portal, if I catch any player who has anime profile, I’ll just instantly banned you, I don’t want your anime crap spreading in my custom matchup.

DICE, not only other people send you feedbacks after that disaster but one of those feedbacks must have told you to add switch team option for 2042, and now I hope you did not forget that until season 1 update to add switch team option.

[arctic grove]

Angel does it again

[heavy sleet]

damn playing with randoms always sux i always gotta be on vc to find good squads

always top 3 every game and always a losing team -_-

[bitter skiff]

Dont let them cage you Maverick!

[compact sleet]

Any else excited for top gun 2?

[bitter skiff]

no! 🙂

[subtle imp]

#general

[neon void]

[compact sleet]

My bad

[neon void]

I like renewal too

[compact sleet]

Best map IMO

[neon void]

I like the first point

[tribal obsidian]

It's renewal or the docks one for me

[arctic grove]

[hexed mango]

dice is my very nice company that i totally made just because yes

that is illegal

[arctic grove]

The yes company

[hexed mango]

The Boring Company

aka elon musk doing stuff

[arctic grove]

[hexed mango]

that’s one of elon musk’s companies

[arctic grove]

Yeah I know lol

DICE! You nerds! Where's my goddamn early april update?!

[hexed mango]

it’s not even a thursday yet

[edgy oriole]

[mossy solar]

Anyone else get digital edition and feel bad they can't break their disc? :D

[hexed mango]

i have such, and no, so just

[mossy solar]

Word

I meant weird

[edgy oriole]

break disk? id just sell it to gamestop for a few bucks.

[mossy solar]

I'd break it completely

[wide shore]

Word

[white geyser]

If only BF 2042 have the same option menu like BF1 to add switch team

[hexed mango]

Word Word

[wide violet]

remember when all they had to do was add all the good parts of bf3/4/hardline/1/5 and they just didnt

[arctic grove]

Word

[arctic grove]

The word gang

[wide shore]

[compact sleet]

I like all of them

[lunar relic]

Am I alone in losing the ability to ADS after leaving a vehicle?

never had that problem till last update

[wide shore]

It’s always been an issue

[prime path]

Anyone curious if 2042 will enter the top 10 worst games on Steam? It's almost there!

[wide violet]

whats current top 10?

[wide shore]

I’m not curious at all actually.

[hardy leaf]

isnt it already in that list?

in hall of shame or something

[prime path]

No it's in 12th place but actually tied with 11.

[hardy leaf]

deserves the first place

[prime path]

Probably the paid reviews that saved it in the first place

[languid verge]

💀 laggy ah game

[scenic tartan]

Yeah it's an annoying problem that's much worse when you have a gun that's got an under barrel launcher attachment

[hardy leaf]

true that, all reviews even calling the game average seems paid

[languid verge]

Waste of money

[echo yew]

there are only 2 decent maps in this game i swear

[hexed mango]

tbh there are worst games. at least this game has stuff in it, an actual development cycle and actually decent graphics, if it takes performance to view them. there are games with far far less in them that get way better reviews, and i mean like stupid steam games, and yet this game that tbh yeah it has a while to go till it gets good, and yeah it may have its problems, but it’s not honestly worth all the clown-age that is it’s cluster of negative reviews

ik that’s hard for some of you to hear, but that’s one perspective to another

[echo yew]

Orbital and Manifest could do with minor touchups here and there, just more cover but the rest either need massive changes or a total overhaul imo

Hourglass and Kaleidoscope should be remade from scratch tbh

Breakaway and Renewal, while not directly offensive like Hourglass and Kaleidoscope, still need huge layout changes and much more cover.

[tribal obsidian]

The classic "whoever disagrees is a paid shill"

[arctic grove]

Maps in this game are ass, not many weapons, some bugs, and there needs to be more transport vehicles and maps need to be more infantry focused as currently the vehicles are ass to play as and against

[hexed mango]

i mean the not many weapons issue is purely because they also added guns for portal, 3 entire games, so in total there’s a decent amount …

[arctic grove]

other than that this game flows well on good maps like discarded and manifest, weapons all feel unique and fun to use, gadgets are inventive and enjoyable, the overall theme and setting is cool, and the movement is juicy

[hexed mango]

.

[echo yew]

Movement is janky tbh

[arctic grove]

so in all this game is fixable, will take like a year but this game is definitely a decent foundation

[echo yew]

Weapon roster is okay, Manifest and Orbital nailed it, discarded is ok, the rest of maps are a meme

[arctic grove]

sprint jump slide cancel is moist

[arctic grove]

the maps are this games biggest issue

[hexed mango]

agreed, i don’t think that it will be perfect now or with the s1 release, but every little core feedback hub, and every bug fix update gets us closer

[arctic grove]

everything else is a nitpick in comparison

[hexed mango]

#948574259209437264 is a good place for this tbh

[arctic grove]

remember the bloom on release? the guns were all terrible, the vehicles were destroying everything due to the ass map layout, and the bugs were everywhere?

[arctic grove]

nah I just wanna chat about them with other people

the air vehicles need to be buffed and the maps need to be reworked and then this game will be an A tier BF game

[hexed mango]

yeah lol :(

[echo yew]

Fucking Kaleidoscope though

Probably the worst map i have ever seen in a video game

[cobalt flower]

Do updates come out on Thursdays?

[echo yew]

i would not be against Kaleidoscope literally being scrapped from the game and replaced with a better concept and better map

[cobalt flower]

Game development is that easy

[arctic grove]

Kaleidoscope but remove half the map

[cobalt flower]

Just add the good parts of other games

[echo yew]

Class system > specialists honestly

[arctic grove]

BF games never are copy paste and thats a good thing

[cobalt flower]

Even though the mechanics in those games weren't even close to the same

[cobalt flower]

subzero take

[arctic grove]

they try new stuff even if the old ones worked

so stagnation isnt an issue

[cobalt flower]

its a great thing

[arctic grove]

it has its flaws dont get me wrong but I see genuine passion in their gamemaking philosophy

[cobalt flower]

id rather every game be different then the games to be clones of each other

[hexed mango]

idk honestly, i was told they do but from what i’ve seen of 3.3, they don’t…

[arctic grove]

one annoying thing about this game is that the game design team and the cosmetic / story design team have a weird disconnect

[cobalt flower]

I imagine that'll change once seasons come out

[arctic grove]

like why is sundance a thing? non binary black woman in a mercenary corp?

strange?

[cobalt flower]

non binary black person*

[arctic grove]

hopefully I guess? the new cosmetics are good

[cobalt flower]

Non binary and woman are oxymorons

[arctic grove]

I know but its funny considering they arent androgynous at all and pass for a woman in every occasion

[cobalt flower]

there's trans people in the US military, it's not weird

[cobalt flower]

That's not how non binary people work lmao

[arctic grove]

yeah but they arent soldiers, more PR and internal matters

[wide violet]

there it is lol

[arctic grove]

considering its a fictional character and they werent made to be non binary by the original design team, yeah I dont really care

they were made that at the last second so I think its more of an insult to non binary people

[cobalt flower]

anime pfp
gamer
discord user
pick a struggle

[arctic grove]

not going to lie the korean operator doesnt have a personality

theyre basically the nameless soldier but as a korean woman

a stark contrast to the other operators who all have quirky voicelines

good thing or bad thing?

[radiant prism]

Hey chat, what the fuck?

[cobalt flower]

just an anime fan being weird

[radiant prism]

Apparently

[hexed mango]

how’s it going big papi

[cobalt flower]

women (and in this case, enby) and minorities are a problem in their vidya i guess

[hexed mango]

👽

[white geyser]

Do you know, what happen when I see anime profile on any battlefield games?

[cobalt flower]

i dont understand the energy they expend hating anyone that isn't like them, or complaining about it

[echo yew]

this game has really bad gunplay

[cobalt flower]

more representation is always a good thing

[cobalt flower]

lmao now this, this is a bad take

[arctic grove]

huh?

how is complaining about it being hamfisted and not properly written a bad thing?

its literally insulting non binary people how is it good

[cobalt flower]

it's not poorly written? lmao

[arctic grove]

"no such thing as bad publicity" is a false statement after all

[cobalt flower]

its just "they're non binary"

[arctic grove]

it literally is though, confirmed to have been added at hat pull

[echo yew]

A gun taking 3 BTK and then 25 BTK is not good gunplay

[cobalt flower]

ok, why does it matter lmao

[wide violet]

can we get a mod in here lol

[arctic grove]

so just randomly assigning it is an insult correct?

[cobalt flower]

no?

[arctic grove]

the character was not designed to be non binary?

thats like if a non binary character was made cis for no reason

[cobalt flower]

humans aren't designed to be non binary, some folks just are lol

[arctic grove]

its against the whole original interpretation of the character

[foggy tundra]

what in the flying.... bruh

this is not only the weirdest argument

[arctic grove]

its literally an insult lol how do you not get that

[foggy tundra]

but thats not a subject for here

[wide violet]

Twiggs ftw

[cobalt flower]

we're talking about sundance

[foggy tundra]

im aware

[arctic grove]

there is a disconnect between the design team and gameplay team that needs to be addressed

[white geyser]

@cobalt flower Alright I'll try to give you some proper answer about anime problem and people getting really annoyed about it.

For years no one was complaining about anime from other people being obessesed, years later it got worse since anime been expanding do to the popularity, the people even the one's I encountered won't stop talking about anime and the rest just can't take it anymore.

[arctic grove]

they cant just keep doing random crap and expecting it to go well

[cobalt flower]

you're this heated by a enby character bro

[cobalt flower]

making fun of anime fans is low hanging fruit, but i dont care, its fun.

[arctic grove]

no im heated by the fact that theyre doing the opposite of what the original character was designed for

[foggy tundra]

discussing whetheror not being non-binary or having a specific gender identity in a game is a potential political discussion

[cobalt flower]

(i also like anime)

[arctic grove]

and plus ive never even watched this show, I just thought he had a very funny face

[patent elbow]

What

[cobalt flower]

well, everything is political, if you really think about it lol

[arctic grove]

bruuuuuuuuuuuh

how about they just nuke seattle

[cobalt flower]

but then thats getting into semantics

[arctic grove]

how would you feel then?

[patent elbow]

???

[foggy tundra]

where is this convo even going now?

[arctic grove]

if your hometown got nuked? because thats basically what youre doing to me right now.

[foggy tundra]

what....

[lost wind]

What?

[cobalt flower]

?

[echo yew]

What am i reading right now

[arctic grove]

I cant take this harrassment. Im out. Blocked.

[cobalt flower]

[echo yew]

Battlefield schizo moment

[worthy inlet]

[patent elbow]

Dude how is Downtalking anime = to a nuke

[white geyser]

Ok that's just way deep man

[arctic grove]

"1 blocked message"

[echo yew]

Anyway back to praising manifest and orbital

[arctic grove]

keep seething and malding.

[foggy tundra]

i thought he was referring to sundance

[lost wind]

Such an odd conversation

[foggy tundra]

now im fucking confused as all hell

[wide violet]

im scared

[patent elbow]

Well how would that even be possible

[cobalt flower]

orbital and manifest are based as fuck

[foggy tundra]

dont look at me

[arctic grove]

sundance is basically me

[echo yew]

Truly

[lost wind]

Not to say manifest is bad, but It’s my least favorite map tbh

[arctic grove]

and its harassing me.

[echo yew]

Manifest single handedly owns all other maps, Orbital is already iconic

[foggy tundra]

if orbital had more cover, best map

[cobalt flower]

frfr

[arctic grove]

100%

[lost wind]

[cobalt flower]

[lost wind]

Yeah

[wintry sorrel]

[cobalt flower]

its just kinda neat, i dont really think about it too much

[wintry sorrel]

its awful and useless

[cobalt flower]

i mean, it gives the points a change

[arctic grove]

oh my god

[foggy tundra]

i forgot about it, until im in the building and the explosions start happening

[lost wind]

Its neat, the environment isn’t always going to be your friend in a battle

[cobalt flower]

makes it harder to see, making the firefights a bit more fun

[arctic grove]

how is me being non binary a part of this?

[cobalt flower]

just explain why you're mad lol

[arctic grove]

why did you bring that up lol, is there an issue?

[cobalt flower]

im non binary lmao

[lost wind]

Ok, what is going on here?

[foggy tundra]

if you have a complaint or issue regarding our server,please take it to modmail

[patent elbow]

@cobalt flower don’t waste your time

[arctic grove]

then why are you harassing me for being non binary?

[cobalt flower]

im not?

[patent elbow]

See what I mean

[arctic grove]

that was harassment earlier was it not?

[echo yew]

Mfw

[cobalt flower]

i was saying sundance being non binary is cool?

i think you misunderstood me

[arctic grove]

?

what was this supposed to mean??????????

[cobalt flower]

didn't know if you were mad about anime or not lol

[arctic grove]

no it aint! its literally insulting enby people everywhere

[foggy tundra]

@arctic grove final warning, drop it and move on or take it to modmail

[arctic grove]

im being harassed and you blame the victim? low. im out.

[lost wind]

Insulting in what way?

[arctic grove]

they were made non binary last moment, to fill a quota. We arent numbers.

[lost wind]

Source?

[wide violet]

yall think Critical Role will eventually fall off?

[cobalt flower]

don't they have a rotating cast

[wide violet]

Matt can only DM for so long before he runs out of ideas

they do, but dude hes been going strong for like 5yrs now

id be tuckered.

[cobalt flower]

ah, they might eventually start rotating DMs or like, the games they campaign?

surprised Matt isn't burnt out lmao

even the idea of being a DM for one session burns me the fuck out

[lost wind]

I’ve been wanting to do a sci fi style D&D campaign

[wide violet]

haha, ive been doing it for 2 yrs now and lowkey i wanna stop haha its a second job practically

[patent elbow]

Thoughts on discarded

[cobalt flower]

i would looooove to do that

[wide violet]

its not Operation Firestorm so boo

[wide violet]

check out Starfinder

[cobalt flower]

Ooooo

[lost wind]

Noted!

[wide violet]

its Pathfinder so essentially 4E dnd but its all space themed

[edgy oriole]

what came out today to bring these people. its been all day today.

[wide violet]

someone spilt mtn dew into the water lines

[worthy inlet]

There's something in the water

[lost wind]

So far I’ve been DM for 1 session. However instead of fantasy, it was like a cops vs criminals police action movie. I swapped out the gear for modern police equivalents. Swords became nightsticks, wooden shields became riot shields, leather armor became bulletproof vests, etc

[wide violet]

haha thats actually pretty dope!

[lime knot]

lmfao, hope it wasn't voltage

[white geyser]

Minutes ago, we were talking about people hating on anime and causing other people to get really annoyed

[wide violet]

it was lmaoooooo

[lime knot]

oh god when they crash they are gonna be irritable asf

[wide violet]

gonna be like the last dude going on about gender and somehow relating it to a nuke

[edgy oriole]

todays just been different is all. seems like its back to december kinda day

[cobalt flower]

i havent had mountain dew in so long

[lost wind]

I even went out of my way to change the classes to police equivalents. Fighter became patrolman, cleric became medic, barbarian became SWAT officer, etc

[cobalt flower]

whats the blue one

[foggy tundra]

i smell dnd

[wide violet]

you get advantage for creativity dude

[worthy inlet]

Dnd is

[lost wind]

Thank you!

[wide violet]

I love hearing ppls creative dnd stories, brings me joy

[lime knot]

i had to stop drinking voltage cause it kept me up too long and i would snap at everyone round me or that i talked to, 1 20oz kept me up for 3 days straight no sleep

[foggy tundra]

i got a funny one

[wide violet]

haha pls share

[foggy tundra]

my first dnd campaign was when i was 7-8

[lost wind]

I think Rangers I called Professionals? Being was inspired by the sniper class in BFH

[foggy tundra]

we ended upfighting a white dragon, and my entire party, my dad and his friends were dying and i was the only one left standing as dwarf monks had a lovely second wind that didnt count as an action

i ended up doing a crit and flying kicked the dragon to death

[wide violet]

lmaoooo

c-c-c-c-combo breaker

[foggy tundra]

dwarf monk op

[wide violet]

monks are op in general, especially if you min max

[lost wind]

Ok, heres my greatest moment in D&D

[foggy tundra]

i was a kid who literally just wanted a drunk dwarf monk

0 minmax

[wide violet]

lolololol. I love it

[worthy inlet]

I once almost died to an unarmed unarmoured dude when I was a high level knife rogue because I kept rolling 1

I think I rolled 4 in the short battle

[lost wind]

My party was in a cave, & there was a shallow pit of ravenous bugs in front of us. The DM was planning on having us do acrobatics checks to climb the walls over the pit. But I took out, from my pack, insect repellent incense my character had on them. I lit it, & we walked through the pit

[foggy tundra]

oof

[foggy tundra]

you flamed thebugs?

LMAO

[wide violet]

lmaoooo

[worthy inlet]

LOL

[foggy tundra]

filthy bugs

the best qa testers, are dnd players

[worthy inlet]

I once had a oneshot where the enemies were car sized ants, and I successfully rolled a 20 when trying to intimidate them by throwing a handful of dead ants at them

[lost wind]

My party’s current campaign setting is basically borderlands. The DM loves those games

[foggy tundra]

sooo one time in family dnd, i am a very pious follower of whats his face

bahamut

and well my sister didnt know how to talk to a god

... needless to say in order to prevent a great amount of death as we were about to fight the armies of literally heaven and hell, i managed to soothe bahamuts feathers and my sister stormed off angrily,not understanding why she was 2 scales from dying instaneously

[worthy inlet]

LOL

[lost wind]

Ha!

[foggy tundra]

and imma be honest, i may notbe the most religious guy, but in dnd, if im a cleric or a ranger dragonborn, i take my deities seriously

[lost wind]

My party loves Easter egging stuff just for the hell of it. We had an NPC character called Judith Hoppswood join our party one time. Obviously a reference to the Disney character Judy Hopps

[foggy tundra]

nice

[wide violet]

id be super religious too if I could have Devine powers lol

[worthy inlet]

We had a campaign where it was a haunted house that turned out to be controlled by a fiend, and my idiot character rolled a Nat 20 to convince the final boss I was actually a god

[foggy tundra]

i had a dragonborn cleric of death i think?

he was a follower of Grenth from guild wars and guild wars 2

[white geyser]

https://tenor.com/view/thanos-avengers-infinity-war-mind-stone-last-stone-infinity-gauntlet-gif-15735729

You want power? get the infinity stones first

[foggy tundra]

he was the craziest dragonborn who loved observing dead bodies, healing, etc

one time

[unborn heath]

I came here to see what’s up and you guys are talking about dnd, interesting

[foggy tundra]

and this is my fucking fav moment with him

[worthy inlet]

Dnd is the best battlefield experience

[foggy tundra]

i was at the temple, and my character was higher than thehighest kite

[next onyx]

What the shit did I open this chat to.

Oh no, Caps.

[foggy tundra]

i managed to get a nat 20 and sneak my entire party, while blacked out high including my party, through a high security city on lockdown

through the sewers

while a cloud of noxious drugs was floating aroundus

top tier cleric moment

[lost wind]

I don’t know why, but that sounds like a badass level in a video game

[foggy tundra]

it wouldve been

also, it gets even better

i was probably the only dragonborn in the city

and so i was the tallest guy in that entire city at 7 feet

[wide violet]

dnd is love, dnd is life

[copper fulcrum]

tmw your match ends with 2 tickets remaining

The back of my chair has sweat all over it now

[foggy tundra]

[arctic grove]

[white geyser]

Don't remind me that big snake, espescially the movie they made with ice-cube, traumatize me as a kid

[arctic grove]

[foggy crest]

u dont like snakes ?

[arctic grove]

I should change my name to snake then

[foggy crest]

anaconda is cool name imo

[white geyser]

I hate snakes, they creep me out, I don't care how big or small, harmless or not I'm terrified of snakes

[arctic grove]

I got inspiration from my brother with this name, been my gamer tag for gaming ever since

[foggy crest]

then dont change it because if i were u i wont change it

[arctic grove]

Yeah I don’t ever change mine

[foggy crest]

i am fine with snakes if they are 30 meters away from me

[white geyser]

I would be fine too, if I see a snake that's far away from me at 100 yards

[foggy crest]

gives confindence

[hard plume]

……tf’s wrong with snakes

[foggy crest]

update when

[merry lance]

G'night

[main breach]

It's 9:37 in the morning where I live

[main breach]

Goodnight tho

[merry lance]

12:46am here. Enjoy your day!

[white geyser]

I'll be sleeping inside the AA wildcat tank, until season 1 update arrive.

Also I'm still gonna remind the Devs on any social media they post, to remind them not only to bring back switch team option from previous battlefield games, but make a better comeback

[main breach]

Thanks. You enjoy your night 🙂

[merry lance]

[forest snow]

Where is thisssss patch!

[fringe bobcat]

Has anyone heard any news of the early April update at all ? Seems like there’s nothing out there at the moment ?

[pulsar sorrel]

SOON™

[scenic tartan]

It'll be released when it's ready - it is April 7th

[arctic grove]

They're just hoping we forget about it

[neat blaze]

I'd buy it on a sale or reduced price. It's still pretty buggy

[mossy solar]

I want the patch

[shy latch]

everyone want it, but there is only one thing to do: waiting until will be released

[hardy leaf]

you will have it on gamepass soon

[arctic grove]

How many hours till the weekly

[shy latch]

if I remember well, after 30 minutes there should be the new weekly mission

[surreal crystal]

Wers the drop at doe

[soft swallow]

Snakes are immortal, you shoot them and they don't die

[shy latch]

mice also together with seagulls or any other volatiles

[opaque oriole]

On april theres gonna be a update with few hundred bug fixes

[fierce gull]

It's April

[viscid pewter]

any updates yet

[silk surge]

Probably not this week, next thursday if they don't backtrack on "early april"

Next thursday is April 14th, which I guess is technically still early april.

[arctic grove]

We can agree on "soon"

[silk surge]

SOONtm

[tame vine]

it's been an hour now

[silk surge]

I love the subreddit. Someone claims that EA lied in their marketing for 2042, I simply asked him to give a single example of them lying, and I get heavily downvoted.

[opaque oriole]

Yeah

[silk surge]

I get that people are upset how the game launched, but the whole trend of making shit up and shitting on DICE for things they never even said is pretty irritating.

[arctic grove]

A lot of criticisms is not just about a specific statement or issue, it´s about the perceived situation and the frustration about the time it takes to fix them

Not defending inappropriate ways of feedback, but I can understand the anger

[slow kraken]

lol

[analog fractal]

So, what's confirmed for the new update? Less veichles? Lol

[slow kraken]

DICE haven't learned a damn thing

[arctic grove]

What’s a low poly

What that new weapon charm mean?

[slow kraken]

A nod to the bugs we have

[tame vine]

low poly = very few polygons
3d models are comprised of polygons, so more polys means more detail

[arctic grove]

could be also just an art style, which tries to look like low poly

[tame vine]

mm hmm, it looks pretty good when done right

[arctic grove]

true

[slow kraken]

Shame it was't done right

[arctic grove]

Update? When?

[slow kraken]

Soon

[edgy oriole]

weekly

[compact sleet]

Are you joking

[jovial quest]

Alex

[fringe bobcat]

Yh I think your probably right , however they normally post what the update consists of I.e patch notes some days before ?

[quartz crest]

Just started playing a few days ago, lvl19 now. What is the best way to take out tanks/vehicles? It takes forever with the rocket launcher 4 shots...

[arctic grove]

1 player only? I would say c5 drone

[edgy oriole]

jets, c5 drone is good, if you use m5 you gotta be lucky and have another 1 or 2 people also shooting the tank

[quartz crest]

I would say it usually seems like 1 player, no one ever seems to be shooting them

I will try c5 drone tonight, thanks for input

[arctic grove]

I think it depends on their location

Btw. if the tank is not in the combat zone you can reset the timer of the drone by leaving the drone view

So you can follow them into the base, if the operator is not to far away

[quartz crest]

Good to know 👍

[arctic grove]

Just in case if you wonder why some tanks exploding there, it works also on Breakthrough. For instance, Manifest.. you can send the drone to the tower to kill the snipers there, even if the sector is not part of the combat

[jovial quest]

Thank god they are fixing the c4 drone

[ripe hedge]

What

[jovial quest]

can I get a quick interview

[edgy oriole]

https://tenor.com/view/balloonshop-derrick-treat-derrick-im-enjoying-a-treat-gif-20725865

[ripe hedge]

Sure

[jovial quest]

Ok so in the next update it was noted by the community manager that there will be an update to the attachments, was this the rework of some attachments you where talking about months back or is this something else

[ripe hedge]

Yes

[arctic grove]

The weekly is acuboctahedron

[jovial quest]

Also one more thing that idk if you can answer but will there be any change the c4 drones

[ripe hedge]

https://tenor.com/view/peter-griffin-perhaps-family-guy-thinking-gif-13587558

[jovial quest]

Thank you for your time Alex and I hope you have an amazing day

imma miss bagging on out of bound camping vehicles 😦

[drowsy sapphire]

It’s ok, we have Jeep stuff

[ripe hedge]

You too!

[drowsy sapphire]

Not sure if I should become Mr. Interviewer #2 like I did a few weeks ago

[jovial quest]

[drowsy sapphire]

🤷‍♂️

[drowsy sapphire]

Howdy

[jovial quest]

Howdy

[shy latch]

I hope that one day they will insert RGB lights as weapons attachments, because it's well known and scientifically proven that RGBs increase the rate of fire exponentially ||👀||

[drowsy sapphire]

So battlefield

👋

[jovial quest]

[compact sleet]

They also increase accuracy

[drowsy sapphire]

Call of Duty sucks… (vanguard) agreed?

[jovial quest]

No comment

[drowsy sapphire]

Modern warfare 2019…
Vanguard

Battlefield V… it’s a good game but people hated it… now everybody is treating it like Amazing spider man 😯

Battlefield 1… No Comment

[arctic grove]

BF1 is a gem ❤️

[drowsy sapphire]

Cmon keep saying “agreed” or “disagree”… or don’t, please don’t fire me for telling you what to do

Alright now

The most important one… cue drama court fast repeat music

Battlefield 2042

[shy latch]

yup, RGBs are op, you can even destroy a tank with a round mag ||👀||

[drowsy sapphire]

What do you people think about 2042… yay.. meh.. or nah

[arctic grove]

mehnah

[compact sleet]

RGBs are so broken it’s a war crime to use them irl

[drowsy sapphire]

I noticed… thank you

Dang…. I guess my job is done

Ka hem

[edgy oriole]

ngl vanguard is more fun than i thought. i had clouded judgment thinking packet loss was their fault but it was actually mine. after a clean pc boot there is only occasional.

and their ost is better than 2042

[shy latch]

tbh I enjoy playing 2042, but of course at the actual state is not the best bf imo but surely it has some potential (but my heart still belongs to BF4) and only the time can say what this chapter will become

[neat totem]

that's crazy, you think it's not the best bf?

I'm genuinely amazed you have this insight; what makes this not the best battlefield

[tiny imp]

word

[neat totem]

I think scoreboards are for football games

just saying keep that shit in fifa and madden, shooters are for the experiences made with friends

[drowsy sapphire]

Exactly lol

[neat totem]

voip is lame, you don't need VOIP in squad games

[drowsy sapphire]

I thought no scoreboard was unique but we have big whimsy cry babies moaning for scoreboard

[neat totem]

you can use the command rose, it works just as well tbh

[crude flame]

lmao facts

[neat totem]

also I liked the christmas skins, I personally think they should do movie themed skins too

open the store up already! I want some neon blue sonic skins for Angel

[tiny imp]

Scoreboard version/part 2 drops this month to BF2042. Be ready guys! Hooaah

And Voip!

[neat totem]

part two of the base game! OOHRAH MAN

[nocturne scaffold]

I like how there is only 1 guy present on this server

the game is so dead....

[edgy oriole]

[neat totem]

the game has plenty of people playing it

have you tried reinstalling origin? Origin is a great way to keep all the latest and greatest EA titles up to date.

[edgy oriole]

is portal EU dead?

[nocturne scaffold]

I just steam charts like yesterday, battlefield 4 had a larger player count

[neat totem]

Origin is the one-stop shop for any quality EA Title, just reinstall it and you might fix the issues

[shy latch]

why is it crazy? and yes, as I wrote before: I enjoy playing 2042, but of course at the actual state is not the best bf imo

[neat totem]

I don't even think it's the 4th best battlefield

if they had released this with a sub-branding and a lower price-point, focusing on MTX

this would have been a smart, good fit for the IP

instead we got Apex meets Call of Duty with vehicles thrown in that are absolutely afterthoughts

now they're going to spend 1+ year, and all the premium money to refine the game and basically use consumer money as a "EA FULL SAIL ACADEMY" for their developers

example: they should have just came out with a cloned version of 3/4 remastered, with portal tacked in using old assets, and spun off the battlefield 2042 garbo as "battlefield legends"

for like 19.99 or free for EA Play with MTX

two games, more profit, less struggle and minimal increases in development cost vs potential reveune

[arctic grove]

that would make sense if the games content we received on launch + weekly challenges was all of the content the game would be receiving

the way i see it, if they dont purposefully become lazy with S1 and add a bunch of content, this warrants being classified as an actual BF title including in the name

[neat totem]

I mean if it isn't clear by now what happened over at EA, it's you had folks who haven't ever really played a battlefield or played it like someone plays battlefront

[arctic grove]

in AOW*

[neat totem]

I'll say it over and over, in the closed alpha several people including me told them it played more like a jank Apex clone; sliding was faster than running at one point

they really just need to go back now and make a reskin/remake of 3/4, and just give fat discounts to anyone who bought premium for this fyrefest 2021

[arctic grove]

nah dont re-make anything, keep those games the way they are. i'd prefer a brand new BF in a modern setting, with real military skins and what not

[arctic magnet]

battlefield lost its identity for wanting to look like call of duty and bring its public

[neat totem]

I personally have tested EA products in person at Redwood and even I wouldn't touch one of the battlefield games again until they either apologize for the premium stuff or offer some sort of amends.

[arctic grove]

when you play BF3 again it does seem like that, most definitely

[neat totem]

go play fucking hardline and tell me it's not closer to battlefield than this game

it's really a joke, do it if you don't believe me

at least in hardline you can feel where they pulled certain mechanics from

this game feels like one of the developers was taking a lunch break right in front of respawn's lunch area and kept hearing about what they had in their game

mackay grapple is a blatant pathfinder ripoff, even the animation is similar

[shy latch]

ok...

[arctic grove]

thats why in my opinion specialists are cool in 2042, but just let me get some guys in marine camo pattern in the next game

[neat totem]

specialists don't fit into the battlefield genre, if they wanted to do this they should have made a game like "battlefield legends"

with deep stories for each character, tying you storyline wise and persona-wise to your favorite character

[arctic magnet]

specialists make no sense in battlefield, it's just something they put in to monetize it as much as possible

[neat totem]

this is literally game/product design 101

[arctic grove]

it was an extremely experimental decision but im sure DICE knows now how an OVERWHELMING amount of the community feels surrounding it

[neat totem]

people play battlefield not for fucking stories

the only reason one was chill with that and even 5 is it was scenario-based stories.

I can't even tell you, nor can ANY of my friends tell you, a SINGLE name from 5

the scenes were dope though!

you'd think they would have learned this with Medal of Honor

[arctic grove]

i remember in bf1 avanti savoia, that was pretty dope

[neat totem]

you know, that game that absolutely tanked when they decided to go all-in single-person storymode

[arctic grove]

Günter? xD

[neat totem]

I think if EA wants to do the same thing again, maybe they should focus the plots or elements on things people deal with everyday in geopolitical struggles/life

think 2142

the theming for the game was "world is going to shit, so we all gotta fight for survival" where 2042 is like "EXPATS FIGHTING FOR WHAT AGAIN"

"OH COOL THIS MACKAY GUY IS FIGHTING WHAT AGAIN? RUSSIANS?"

game comes out, zero backstory on characters

absolutely storyline micdrop

[austere kiln]

Holy shit even i dont mald this bad, i actually reinstalled last night and had a decent time playing

This man is code red malding

[neat totem]

nah just pointing out how silly it is that they have full teams for product/marketing and missed this stuff

let me know where I can find about who the fuck the operators are

[vapid token]

Less than 2000 people on steam playing 2042, woo

[radiant prism]

Except they didn’t…there’s literally full backstories on the website.

[shy latch]

are not expats, but are no-pats, it's a tiny different

[edgy oriole]

i thought there was lore on specialist? idk tho bc i dont pay attention to lore in any video game

[neat totem]

are you fucking joking? its two paragraphs, 3 sentences each roughly

you want me to copy paste them?

Outdoorsman. Nomad. Soldier. Mackay is an ass-kicker with a conscience. Following his father's footsteps, Mackay joined the Canadian military in his teens. At the height of his military career, he was a member of Joint Task Force 2 as a part of a counter-terrorism unit.

After retiring from the military, he followed his dreams of exploring and living off the grid. Now, this Assault soldier fights for the Non-Patriated to make right a regret from his military days.

Mackay swings into action during a flash flood in Rio. His days as a survivalist rappelling off cliffs seem to have paid off.

sick bio dude, really invested in him

[austere kiln]

When

Did i care about bio’s for characters in a multiplayer shooter

[neat totem]

triple a title and they put less info in the bio than my FAANG does for internal team bios

[vapid token]

It's middle school writing

[neat totem]

I do writing for a living, this shit is painful please hire me 40/hr

[vapid token]

Lol, I think Rainbow 6 Siege has better bio of operators.

[austere kiln]

Literally all anyone should care about a shooter is A: what the character looks likr and B: character abilities, you want lore, go play a single player or coop game

[neat totem]

it does, even UBISOFT figured it out. U B I S O F T.

[arctic grove]

your avatar an the name.. made my day

[shy latch]

there was not bio also for mp characters on BF3, BF4, BF1 and BFV as well

[austere kiln]

Dont care didnt ask plus maidenless

[neat totem]

but they didn't need it because they weren't shoving MTX operators down our throat

[arctic grove]

werent all of the characters no names until BFV and only elites had a description?

[vapid token]

^What Rin said

[sleek latch]

Calm down people, keep everything respectful

[neat totem]

but when it's literally the fucking selling point of the game, seems like a large oversight

https://tenor.com/view/cool-john-oliver-gif-8878747

[austere kiln]

I dont see how a character bio is a selling point

[ionic tulip]

It doesn’t take away from anything so they spent 5 minutes writing up some random lore I don’t see a problem

[austere kiln]

Even i think thats grasping for thin air

[edgy oriole]

yeah i cant either if thats what youre saying. selling point of a bf game is that its bf.

[austere kiln]

Exactly, its fine with or without it, poorly or not you can just ignore it

[neat totem]

the selling point of the game was to sell you more operators and stuff

maybe you missed the memo but the game catastrophically failed and they never made it to step 2

[shy latch]

what is MTX? I don't understand

[neat totem]

microtransactions

[edgy oriole]

i mean if the skins look cool ill buy it. im not gonna read their backstory and be like "hell yeah imma buy this"

[austere kiln]

Writer boy looks like he dips and drives an f250 to work as he writes for “farmer times”

[neat totem]

I mean, that's literally what they intended you to do, so I guess you're explaining/seeing why the game failed

[shy latch]

but 2042 doesn't have mtx

[vapid token]

They made Battlefield 2042 to:

Call of Apex Legends 2042

[neat totem]

pretty much

[ionic tulip]

I’m starting to think that’s not what it was for just because I don’t think there’s been any new operators

[edgy oriole]

thats good i hope the skins dont suck ig? lmao.

[neat totem]

or maybe the backlash was so insane they aren't silly enough to release that right now

not before a single season, which is months late, comes out.

[ionic tulip]

Yeah that’s probably true I just expected more by now

[vapid token]

Personally, I love the sliding in BFV because it's so smooth and the different types of sounds to what you're sliding on, but in 2042 it's just awful

[edgy oriole]

bfv slide was prtty nice

[neat totem]

seems hamfisted and a good way to sink your companies stock even lower than a Andy Mcnamara tweet

[radiant prism]

BFVs slide was overused, I’m glad it got toned down tbh

[vapid token]

It seemed balanced as well, in terms of players shooting at sliding players

[radiant prism]

Like slidespamming was almost meta in that game

[vapid token]

Lol, I still do it

not spam, but just slide for movement

[radiant prism]

I mean yeah I did it too when I played BFV

[austere kiln]

#slideprideworldwide

[edgy oriole]

https://tenor.com/view/nervous-sweating-sweating-bullets-sweating-gif-17507069 i never did

[shy latch]

maybe, I brought BFV on last summer and I don't remember any name for mp characthers

[neat totem]

dolphindiveboys

[austere kiln]

Next battlefield is the winter war, with special preorder operator simo hiya

[ionic tulip]

Yeah most were just generic names and nothing else but a lot of people just use elites

[austere kiln]

800$ preorder edition gives you irl replica rifle

[arctic grove]

same, I just used a shotgung to teach the sliders walking

[vapid token]

This next battlefield, if it will even come out, better be the best game of the year and the best battlefield

If it's ruined like 2042, bye bye to BF

[shy latch]

so is gonna be in Captain American world? 🤔

[arctic grove]

i still dont get why yall think a major franchise is just gonna die like that lmfao

[austere kiln]

Is this sarcasm

[radiant prism]

It’s funny how people have said that for just about every title since BF4

[ionic tulip]

You setting the standard to high we should aim for an average game for now they gotta work up to the best

[arctic grove]

even if 2042 was a catastrophe that doesnt mean that the franchise doesnt have massive untapped potential

hell, they havent even bothered with full movies with Exodus quality, and thats just barely starting

[radiant prism]

It’s almost like DICE had a track record of rocky launches and we really shouldn’t be too surprised by this

[vapid token]

Oh really? I didn't know lol. I enjoy all BF games except 2042

[arctic grove]

all they need to do is market another title the same way they did with 2042, and millions of people are going to buy it. BF isnt going anywhere lmao

[arctic grove]

true, but now it is a bit different, because there are some design mistakes

[vapid token]

Not many are playing the game, in a few years maybe it will go back up, but now no

[ionic tulip]

This isn’t even just bugs tho the game is a beta

[shy latch]

yes, i was sarcastic, when there is too much hot air in the chat I start to be funny, it's just me I have nothing against you

[arctic grove]

it lasted 20 yrs throughout things people think is the death of the franchise today, why would it suddenly change in a couple years

[vapid token]

It went from BFV, pulling the plug, to 2042 in having no players, so idk about the next one

[radiant prism]

BF4 was quite literally unplayable for 6+ months. This is nothing compared to that.

[arctic grove]

like the voip outrage when the game never had voip on pc. and launch performance with.... every title this last decade (maybe even longer) just as bad if not worst than this game

[ionic tulip]

It would probably be like cod no matter how absolutely shit their games are they will still be bought

[radiant prism]

Also this whole narrative of 2042 having no players needs to die, because I’m matching into full lobbies no sweat.

[arctic grove]

bugs != design mistakes

[vapid token]

If DICE actually listened to their fans, the game would be same

[arctic grove]

these mfs just want this game to have "no players"

[tiny imp]

I loved Battlefield single stores campaign. From BF3 to BFV

[radiant prism]

Are you really gonna pretend that other games don’t have design mistakes? Lmao

[tiny imp]

This BF2042 feels souless

[vapid token]

There are just better games to play than 2042, I don't think the game deserves to have real players. Should just be an AI vs AI game

[arctic grove]

game still has players regardless so if theres better games, ok go play them

[arctic grove]

not so many, otherwise there would be more active players, right?

lotta shxt games still being played every day

[thick copper]

u are allowed to say shit

[arctic grove]

i wouldnt consider 2042 a failure because its player count is abysmally low

do you know how much money the game made on launch sales?

[vapid token]

On launch sales, a lot

[radiant prism]

BF4 has about 7 weapons that actually get used, vehicle balance is notoriously busted, and the game is still buggy. BF1’s gameplay as a whole is atrocious. RBD and suppression come to mind…not to mention the hellriegel exists. BFV still has its share of bugs, not to mention a few vehicle balance issues.

[arctic grove]

thats all they need... thats it

[radiant prism]

Except there are. Despite what Reddit may say, lobbies are still full 24/7.

[arctic grove]

thats literally all they need and care about is whatever the game made off purchases, and could give a damn less about anything from there, if they wanted to they could tow this game along a 3rd world country road until they can cut the cord for the next project

[thick copper]

alltime peak on steam was 100.5k

[vapid token]

In BFV, all weapons get used and equipment which is a good thing

[edgy oriole]

during the night for NA for me specifically id get some lower player count lobbies then when another person in here had a full lobby that ended my game started filling up

[thick copper]

bf1 gaining 3.91%

[arctic grove]

my mom said no profanity

[shy latch]

bugs is not chain related to the playerbase, take a look to Halo: they delayed the release to make the game better, the mp is f2p but is dead

[thick copper]

dispose of the mother then

[radiant prism]

I was playing till like 3AM last night for…reasons, but was still getting full lobbies.

[ionic tulip]

The only positive thing I have to say about 2042 is the hovercrafts are fun

[arctic grove]

the condour is a blast

[surreal crystal]

Bolte too

[ionic tulip]

The what?

[vapid token]

The bolte

[edgy oriole]

https://discordapp.com/channels/140933721929940992/850376380822323230/958939498937454632 this is on the 30th convo between me and basement about it. i told him he stole my teammates and enemies *click link not view channel. i cant get rid of that for some reason.

[surreal crystal]

Fun gun

[ionic tulip]

I didn’t play to much I don’t have much unlocked what is that

[arctic grove]

the worst vehicle ever put into a bf game

[surreal crystal]

Absolute death machine

[ionic tulip]

What does it do

[surreal crystal]

Pew pew brrrrrr

[arctic grove]

Bolte sucks ass

[ionic tulip]

Ah ok

[arctic grove]

Condor and MI-28 tho

[shy latch]

lol

[surreal crystal]

I respect that

[ionic tulip]

Like brrrrrrr bang bang brrrrrrrr

[arctic grove]

transports and the bolte make defending an open objective a joke

[surreal crystal]

Poooooosh coz it releases smoke 💨

[arctic grove]

Bolte goes pew pew pew pshhhhhhhhhh

[ionic tulip]

Damn it go brrrrrrr pew pew brrrrr pshhhhhhhh

[radiant prism]

The bolte is getting rebalanced soon, moved into the tank category. The MAV is gonna take the transport slot.

[cobalt flower]

whats on da servers in kalediscope?

[arctic grove]

Condor goes brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

[shy latch]

i can't post images here, but if you search on Google "battlefield m5 bolte" it immediately appears

[surreal crystal]

Rule 34

[arctic grove]

Rule34 of sundance

[cobalt flower]

based

double based

[surreal crystal]

Reddit users storage place

[arctic grove]

Not based

[edgy oriole]

imm tryna see what falck about tbh

[ionic tulip]

Oh it’s that

I’ve seen that in some of my games

[arctic grove]

"we cant say whats on those servers"

[arctic grove]

In what way?

[arctic grove]

Live support of this game

[edgy oriole]

[surreal crystal]

Haha

[ionic tulip]

There’s nobody on those servers

[arctic grove]

Live support my ass. Release some minor bug fixes once a month while being silent

[surreal crystal]

Talking about support wen is the drop doe

[arctic grove]

Can't even release an early april update early

[cobalt flower]

hoes mad

[ionic tulip]

Makes it a semi playable game with big fixes which never should have existed “hey guys it’s live support it’s almost what should’ve been at launch”

[cobalt flower]

its literally still the first week of april

[surreal crystal]

Based

[lime knot]

if you don't like it bruh move on to another game

[arctic grove]

Yeah but they release them on Thursdays and Tuesdays

[surreal crystal]

True words

[arctic grove]

So not this week

[edgy oriole]

if they drop it on the 14th its still considered early

[ionic tulip]

So it could be on Saturday

[arctic grove]

Are you fr?

[surreal crystal]

Only fun aspect of 2042 is this server

[arctic grove]

Fuck I mean Tuesdays lmao

[edgy oriole]

15 = half way
14 = early

[surreal crystal]

Eyo u actin up doe

[arctic grove]

Makes sense

[edgy oriole]

idk how major the bugs are but they shouldve split it in 2 since there is so many fixes.

[ionic tulip]

Tbh There should be some kind of law for games like this complete lies

[edgy oriole]

since early access got popular that is the trend now. they should be able to pass a law about EA making sure that you say it with the title name like the indies have to do

[ionic tulip]

Im gonna stop preordering games tho the only 2 I’ve done it for is this and battlefront 2

Idk why but I feel now people will buy a game no matter how shit it is

[cobalt flower]

LMAO

[cobalt flower]

what did they lie about

[edgy oriole]

until there is proper competition to BF ill still buy from the franchise bc there is nothing like it.

[cobalt flower]

based

[ionic tulip]

But there probably won’t be one unless people stop buying bf

[cobalt flower]

thats not how shit works LMAO

[ionic tulip]

It’s like cod a lot of people do that same thing

Buy it just because it’s the biggest fps

[edgy oriole]

its not that. its that nobody can compete with it. if the old dice that split away made a competition to bf now instead of some free trash they are putting out that may have something to do with it.
I even think the 45 companies making COD should split to give comp to COD. both franchises are way too comfortable

[ionic tulip]

And wait untill there’s a big competitor thag will maybe not come for a long time

[cobalt flower]

what are they making?

[radiant prism]

There have been a lot of games recently trying to beat out Battlefield, namely WW3 and CoD MW19's Ground War. Neither was even close to successful, and I'd argue just served to show how refined Battlefield as a franchise is, even when we may not see it.

[edgy oriole]

some free to play 3rd person hero thing. ill try to find it rq

[cobalt flower]

huh

[ionic tulip]

I think if titanfall didn’t get fucked by Respawn they could have competed with games like cod

[edgy oriole]

Arc Raiders

competition is what makes games, being comfortable is what kills games.

[radiant prism]

Wait, whats the weekly reward this week?

[cobalt flower]

low poly charm!

[shy latch]

low poly keychain

[radiant prism]

awwww, was hoping for a skin.

Oh well

[edgy oriole]

i posted a pic but i cant find it when i search for it lol

[ionic tulip]

But also jumping on trends just kills all interest in them by making people think everything like it is bad

[radiant prism]

I found it

[radiant prism]

here : )

[cobalt flower]

just be able to think critically lol

[lofty nymph]

any new content after 5 months ?

[ionic tulip]

I’m just saying generally when a lot of games especially big ones jump on trends and do it bad it makes the whole trend look bad
