battlefield-2042

[tepid agate]

The largest bomb cluster I have ever seen

[gusty sandal]

the whole game its intended to be made used by specialists :/

[tepid agate]

💸

[gusty sandal]

also Alot of APS tho

[tepid agate]

Let's see if they start selling skins this year

[gusty sandal]

that is why i say its gonna be really interesting

[gusty sandal]

kinda scary EA begin EA dont sell any shit with this game yet XD

like Skins and other things like Battlepacks

[tepid agate]

They screwed so many over they couldn't dare risk it lol

Battle packs where easy to earn though lol

So are skins but battlepacks you could have a new one every other game

Skins once a week so far

I'm surprised there is no kind of javelin launcher in this modern shooter

[gusty sandal]

again this game its half baked

NO THERMALS for example

[tepid agate]

Javelins would help stop the vehicle spamming lol

[gusty sandal]

also they added TV guied missiles? to apaches in BF3 portal? these things was before this patch?

[tepid agate]

I can still jump through that wall on renewal

[white geyser]

Bring back the javelin and the sraw in 2042

[gusty sandal]

i dont get it.. in BF4 javelings you had to hold the lock to hit

In the most popular Fire n Forget weapon of the world XD

[tepid agate]

Anyone know how many guns were actuay in bf4 maybe over 50?

I think this game has less than half

[gusty sandal]

and more of the Half of BF4 weapons was BF3 ones

[tepid agate]

Ah I missed that then starting at BF4 it all felt new lol

They have more in portal mode than the actual game modes

[gusty sandal]

its not likely to find a Garand in 2042 XD

(sees people using mosing nagants in Ukraine)

welp ignore that

[white geyser]

I expect BF4 to be added in the portal, all the weapons and vehicles better be in the game and not one single weapon and vehicle is missing

[gusty sandal]

you dont want the game give you a massage too?

[white geyser]

The fuck is that suppose to mean?

[tepid agate]

They couldn't do that, then they really would lose 90% of players playing with specialists 😄

[dim blade]

this game good now?

[gusty sandal]

its a joke, basically its like when you are requesting something too far of the real expectatives what will close to request something able to perform massages and solve your marriage

[tepid agate]

It's better but not good

[dim blade]

think ill let it sit in the oven a little longer

I wish the game looked grittier, its all sunshine and rainbows

[gusty sandal]

TL;DR; the game got way better for the ones who Still played it, but will not change almost anything from the ones who leaved

[tepid agate]

It's so pretty for a game where the world is supposed to be on edge lol

[white geyser]

BF4 don't have specialist and bring back the fans to add BF4 and how much they miss it

[gusty sandal]

imagine BF3 was recived so bad for some fans what they had to do their own game ( SQUAD )

[tepid agate]

Yes I know.

I mean like, Ludia don't give is all old battlefields because then players really would leave specialists alone. They give us some old ones with a few old maps.

I don't think this game could cope with levolution also

[dim blade]

The reason i quit was the broken hitren. Me shooting someone point blank, seeing the blood splats but bullets apparently arent actually hitting anything , that really pisses me off. I didnt mind the stupid goofy visual bugs but hitreg not working is the worst thing ever.

If that is fixed i might give it another go eventually

[tepid agate]

Remember when they said they were ahead of schedule? I want to see that schedule 😂

[gusty sandal]

OH! that.. i dont remember the last time that happened

[dim blade]

good

[white geyser]

Lets not forget, it's not complete if they don't add 2142 in the portal, we have 1942, 2142, and 2042

[gusty sandal]

V
I
E
T
N
A
M

[tepid agate]

I've never played that one. I've actually never played a super futuristic fps from battlefield or even cod

[arctic grove]

This update was nice and everything, but can we get proper craters/destruction back?

Instead of the smallest crater decal for frag grenades to the biggest explosives

[tepid agate]

You can knock trees over..... Destruction!!

Tornadoes should be able to pull the some roofs off. That would be a cools features too

[gusty sandal]

❤️

[tepid agate]

Surley they have navel planned at some point too because of the intro

[gusty sandal]

at least saw something about it?

[white geyser]

Pretty sure you never play this vehicle in 2142

[gusty sandal]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_XNskEiShMA

[tepid agate]

Looks like some mobile robot game I get advertised

[gusty sandal]

watch the intro of that game, i post the link upthere

[deft bloom]

When is battlefield 2042 coming to gamepass

[gusty sandal]

one day?

[deft bloom]

But thats when i go to school

[gusty sandal]

its rhetorical i dunno when honestly

[gusty sandal]

1942 one still giving me Chills on the back https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wkOatsIsSms

[white geyser]

I want to create 2042 vs 2142 in the portal, so I can create some timeline got mess up

[arctic grove]

1942 is the best bit about portal

[upbeat sand]

BOB

[gusty sandal]

kinda irrelevat w/o the artillery and naval stuff

[arctic grove]

Yeah? 2042 is the definition of irrelevance

And 1942 is still the best bit about it

[white geyser]

BF5 is not like 1942

[arctic grove]

At least BFV has good graphics, proper destruction, and actual battlefield mechanics

Despite what issues it may have otherwise

[gusty sandal]

i dont want to be rude buddy what i mean, porting things without their basics mechanics its not the same, 1942 70% of the whole game was about vehicles, and things like Carriers, Artillery pieces, and more naval stuff, its just porting models

[white geyser]

BF 2042 gonna need proper destructions too

[arctic grove]

Did I argue otherwise?

Like seriously where did I disagree - you must be smoking more weed than me, buddy

[gusty sandal]

"At least BFV has good graphics, proper destruction, and actual battlefield mechanics

Despite what issues it may have otherwise"

1942 dont had any of it and still had WAYYY more complex mechanics on it

[tall finch]

much better but the content is dry and its a little boring

[arctic grove]

You are shockingly dumb

[tall finch]

+1, even 2042 is more battlefield than 1942, cant wait to see all the nonsense replies about 1942 SOMEHOW BEING BETTER

oh wait, its against bf5

[arctic grove]

LoL you're all that stupid

[tall finch]

i actually meant the +1 to cambo, bruh im stupid too

WAIT IT WAS TO CAMBO, BRUHH

[arctic grove]

Im out of this discussion either way, this is the kind of nonsense I get whenever this game is talked about

[tall finch]

bfv and bf2042 are better than 1942, just gotta accept it

[arctic grove]

I NEVER SAID THEY WERENT I WAS TALKING ABOUT 1942 PORTAL

[gusty sandal]

Yes and No...

i dont want to play 1942 today cuz its too old to actually enjoy it

BUT my argument its 1942 and BFV are two different games what in contrast what that game offered in their time its kinda sad NEVER ever seen again

Like,
why i cannot use a Submarine anymore?
why theres no a full fleet protecting the driveable carrier what was the only spawn point for planes?
why theres no more manual Artillery Support? and Self proppeller howitzers what actually do that in the map?

[arctic grove]

1942 PORTAL IS THE ONLY GOOD BIT ABOUT 2042 AND ITS STILL SHITE

READ YOU BLIND CHILDREN

[tepid agate]

Wow I come back to catch up and lots of name calling begins... 🍿

[arctic grove]

Idiots

[tepid agate]

A debate or conversation can't flow with name calling

[gusty sandal]

Why theres no more pure tank vs tank game mode anymore (besides of armored kill)

[eternal storm]

because 4 people would play it.

[tepid agate]

Because yhere 128 players who can all.have rocket launchers looll

[gusty sandal]

im saying in the whole franchise

[eternal storm]

this is all pretty simple. games like bf and cod are aimed at the masses, provide general arcadey gameplay that people can pick up and play, throw in some cosmetic shit and job done. if you want very specific game modes then there are other games that cater to that...and those games are not traditionally from AAA developers. In other words, just because you want to fight another dude in a tank and have noone else get in the way- doesnt mean the other 10 million people the game is marketed towards do.

[gusty sandal]

i know your point and its seriously a very good answer, my problem its people are just noticing this with 2042 when i feel this happening since BF3

[eternal storm]

Everyone- including me, has their own idea of what they want the game to be and the direction to go in...but this isnt aimed at your opinions or mine...its aimed at the entire general public, who just so happen to be idiots

[tepid agate]

I never really noticed. I used vehicles from time to time but I'd rather have boots on the ground

[grizzled whale]

the update revived the game for a solid half a day

[reef scarab]

aint you the part of the general public?

[tepid agate]

Half a day 😂

[eternal storm]

yep, and others within it will think im a fucking idiot for my thoughts and ideas on what thge game should be...hence big companies like EA simply pick somewhere roughly in the middle and give us a product most people will buy and not necessarily like. 2042 may have been shit and unfinished on release...but it made tons of $$$$$

[tepid agate]

Tanks best use now is just like the other vehicles, a form of transport from A to B. Or you will die from lack of shelter

It's made a lot of money because they sold so many people. They have burnt a lot of bridges though I doubt they could sell anywhere near the bf2042 numbers on day 1 release unless they try to build the trust back

[eternal storm]

some people go on bf and only want to be in planes and get annoyed at anything that gets changed to make them weaker, same for tanks, same for infantry weapons and people who only like being on foot. battlefield will never ever make everyone happy..itll always land somewhere in the middle. their worst crime was releasing an unfinished game without content...but as for direction of the franchise...thats done from basic marketing...for the masses

[real ether]

Battlefield 2042 update is amazing

[tepid agate]

8/10 game for you now? 😄

[real ether]

Beside the fact they moved the little bird to attack

[grizzled whale]

i would 100% revert the whole update if they brought back mackay bhopping

[grizzled whale]

skill issue

[eternal storm]

is there a single person that thinks this game will get any serious content after 4 seasons?

[umbral island]

Yes

[eternal storm]

what makes you believe this?

[grizzled whale]

it will probably go free to play after season 2

[gusty sandal]

I personally buy it cuz i liked the idea, i Still playing it cuz it felt DIFFERENT from what i use to play and i like that, kinda bad it came out so half baked

[tepid agate]

I'm.not sure it can survive to season 4 lol

Depends how season 1 goes

[gusty sandal]

Cuz its the curse of the BF cycle

[umbral island]

Seasons, Tom Henderson said every season would contain 2 maps

[grizzled whale]

they have to release 4 seasons

[reef scarab]

to me its still better than the cod "modern warfare" which allows you to shoot pink bullets"

[eternal storm]

i hated the idea of the plus system and the specialists, but other than their shit character modeling and voicelines their abilities dont bother me

[umbral island]

4x2 = 8 so 8 maps

[tepid agate]

Yes they will but maybe hardly anyone playing by then. Maybe even lower than today

[gusty sandal]

Oh nonono i really like these MF be muted too XD

[real ether]

[umbral island]

And Portal maps

[eternal storm]

my money is on this being like bfV (and 4 actually), itll take 1-2 years for the game to be what we wanted at release, by which time most of us wont be playing it

[real ether]

1-2 years I'll still play 2042

[umbral island]

Same

[eternal storm]

i was hoping hazard zone was gonna be their new thing to attract more players, but thats failed and theyll prob give up on it entirely which is a shame,

[real ether]

Just Like bf5

[tepid agate]

I'm not sure it could be revived like the other battlefields because this game is going a completely different direction because of specialists

[gusty sandal]

i dunno, i still Hook in games like Warthunder,

if i dont play BF1 more ofthen its cuz there was no players before BF2042 hype raised

[grizzled whale]

as long as the snipers only portal server stays active, ill be playing

[umbral island]

@eternal storm That you wont play it in one year doesn’t mean everyone else wont

[real ether]

Tbh they should add dumb bombs into 2042

[eternal storm]

im talking generally, in what is considered a good player count for a AAA game

[gusty sandal]

All BF go for different dirrections every single launch, you had a point where you had TF2 like character in the franchise XD

[tepid agate]

Just because you will doesn't mean everyone else will, vice versa 😄

[gusty sandal]

Also i seen more sad the Halo infinite numbers

[tepid agate]

Every battlefield I played they never had any character have any weapon like really anyone can have ammo crafts no need to stick with squads

[upbeat sand]

current count of 2042: 1900p
current count for battlefield V: 8500p

[grizzled whale]

current count for people asking : 0

[eternal storm]

bfV is fantastic, and will hold up a few years more cos graphics and gameplay strong

but my point is bf1/bfV,bf2042 wont be seeing the huge numbers daily like cod does, even without warzone

[real ether]

Well it the middle of the night

[tepid agate]

I'm sure there's way more team work in bfV than 2042 simply because anyone can have anything in 2042 lol

[grizzled whale]

its 10am

[upbeat sand]

its 6pm where i am

[real ether]

For me it's 4am

[grizzled whale]

its 10am in the only time zone that counts

[gusty sandal]

cuz COD its from another culture of players like the one kind of poeple who listens Trap

[desert elbow]

Idk about that actually, since some people will only choose medic in BF5 for the SMG for example

[dusky magnet]

however people reviving you in 2042 more than in bfv

[real ether]

I got schoo too

[eternal storm]

i may be in a minority but id love if bf did some small maps like cod, the bf gunplay is great

[tepid agate]

I always chose support to build up a fortress faster 😂

[real ether]

Bf2042 just needs one amazing update

[tepid agate]

Yes revive then die

[gusty sandal]

Completly disagree, i get revived, resuplied and armored way more often in 2042 than in any BF game, bless the Angel/falk mains

[desert elbow]

Same haha it's so satisfying when it's complete

[gusty sandal]

i dont think you are a minority when i see dozens of LOCKER maps servers in BF4 to this day

[tepid agate]

I think we feel we get revived more because we have more players and angel is the most op specialist

[eternal storm]

No I mean smalllll, like search and destroy but in battlefield as a game mode

[gusty sandal]

i play in Lat Am Servers where most of the time its 80 players and still people lift me up more ofthen

also for some odd reason its Cool revive players in 2042

[dusky magnet]

no, because reviving is much easier and faster in 2042 than in any bf games before

[tepid agate]

Well, all bots that fill your server can revive anyone too 😂

[gusty sandal]

EXP servers with Bots? how it that possible?? XD come on now you are in denial

[tepid agate]

They always fill my servers lol

[umbral island]

Bots autofill servers when to less players

[tepid agate]

Yeah because almost everyone is angel lol

[dusky magnet]

and falck. And is this bad lol?

[tepid agate]

I'm not a fan of specialists anyways lol

[dusky magnet]

the most playable specialist is one who can revive you, perfect, isnt it?

[gusty sandal]

Not in custom ones, theres a thing in portal if you dont touch Rules editor and dont add Bots can Add any map to the rotation and gain full experience/ribbons/ unlocks like a normal BF server

so these are always fill with people

[tepid agate]

So servers of 128 players will have 50% angel, 25% falck and 25% other

[grizzled whale]

sucks that theres no populated hardcore portal servers for EU at this time

[dusky magnet]

i think 50% angel 20% falck 20% boris and 10% other

[grizzled whale]

lowest ping is 240

[tepid agate]

Boris is a pain as well goodbye to flanking

[grizzled whale]

it should be 100% mackay

[tepid agate]

100% dozer

[gusty sandal]

i say theres alot of Angels but not that much, i seen alot of Boris, and McKay too, aswell Sundances, so i cant tell wich one its the most used

also RAO and Paik where under used,

[tepid agate]

Well I don't know the exact numbers but I'm pretty sure angel is used in servers more than any other specialist

I think 50% angel is a respectable guess 😂

[gusty sandal]

i was killed by the turret like 3 times in my +170 hours? i dont see much problem, i see turret, i see a dumb guy camping both done

[tepid agate]

Because turrets spot you for the entire team so no more flanking stealth

[grizzled whale]

turrets OP

[dusky magnet]

only for boris, not the whole team

[next onyx]

Lucky you, I've been killed by so many turrets so many fucking times.

Actually fucking annoying.

[tepid agate]

Oh I learned something new! 😂

[dusky magnet]

but anyway turrets are op

[tepid agate]

I got Boris to mastery the other day so I won't use him anymore

[dusky magnet]

they deal you 60-80 damage, and boris can kill you with just 1-2 bullets

[gusty sandal]

really they are that OP? like you dont shot that thing outside its range?

[grizzled whale]

boris players be like

[grizzled whale]

they have stupid long range

[tepid agate]

Call in a robo dog and place a turret, bipod on heavy machine gun nobody will flank you ever 😂

[next onyx]

I'd rather be tag teamed but two players than turrets.

I don't even know how long their range extends.

[gusty sandal]

EMP NADE ENTERS THE CHAT

[next onyx]

All I know is that I dare step out for one second I get shot at.

[grizzled whale]

oh there were 2 boris players proned in the background with pkp's

[tepid agate]

Yeah goodluck getting close to reach them with your emp granade without being spotted lol

[brittle atlas]

HEAT tank shot hits transport heli, 30% damage.

[next onyx]

Of course it's two boris's proned with the PKP.

[grizzled whale]

like wtf is that range

[brittle atlas]

Why is this game so unsatisfying

[dusky magnet]

yeah and funny thing that it feels like turrets watching and firing YOU but not a single teammate

[next onyx]

Should we be surprised? NO.

[grizzled whale]

should we be disappointed, HELL YES.

[next onyx]

It's bf5 all over again with these brainlets.

[grizzled whale]

in front of the elevators too

[next onyx]

And I don't want to remember the MMG spam on 5.

This one boris main I shot, His first instinct was to drop a fucking turret.

[grizzled whale]

yesterday i had a nice standoff with 2 campers on snipers only on battle of the bulge

[next onyx]

Honestly I just killed him, destroyed his turret and bagged his corpse.

[gusty sandal]

looking at this if i see 2 frikking spotlight you are aldealy dead cuz if not are Turrets are 2 Snipers anyways

[grizzled whale]

they were trying to keep me out of the church tower because i was destroying their team, so they camped up there

so i slowly made my way up the ladder so it didnt make a sound

[tepid agate]

How many robo dogs can be called in per team at the same time is it 2?

[grizzled whale]

waited for one of them to go down, then got all the way up and blasted them

[grizzled whale]

TURNS OUT THERE WAS 4 OF THEM UP THERE

[next onyx]

Jesus christ.

[grizzled whale]

at some point in the game they all just started to group up on the edge of the map

[gusty sandal]

DOG

(wananananan)

ROBOT DOG

(wananananan)

[grizzled whale]

like the clip i posted yesterday, at least 7 people at the same building looking at the cover i was spawning behind

[tepid agate]

Imagine boarding off an area together. 2 of borris plant turrets close and 2 robo dogs. Basically 4 turrta in and area to seal with on top of the 2 soldiers with weapons

[next onyx]

You can tell the way they play by the way they move.

[grizzled whale]

well at first they were moving

untill i started to destroy

[next onyx]

In that clip it looked like they stopped completely LOL.

[grizzled whale]

ended that match 80-22

[gusty sandal]

i dont think much playing i dead alot,...

i just hunt tanks

[next onyx]

I can understand the pressure so you start to stop moving.

[grizzled whale]

or confidence

[next onyx]

Yeah.

[grizzled whale]

"we got 7 people aiming at this dude i dont need to move"

thats why i love it when people go prone in sniper only, easy kills

[next onyx]

Thing is, Things rarely go well when you're relying on other people.

Rely on yourself, That's what I learned.

[gusty sandal]

easy hit the head :3

[next onyx]

When the person you shoot drops to the ground on their first instinct.

Pain.

[gusty sandal]

that is why i pick Rao so ofthen,...everyine complains about Helis, but nobody grab a AA

also its too late the game its dead :/

[upbeat sand]

more people need to use the pbx it is A teir

[next onyx]

I just wish the m5's velocity was better.

I'm not asking to snipe helicopters from across the map but allow me to hit a little bird that gets a bit too confident and gets close.

[grizzled whale]

and people need to learn that if you miss your first shot, STOP AIMING

[tribal cradle]

Where is the best place to give feedback on Battlefield these days?

[grizzled whale]

its just gonna give away your position

dont ADS constantly, just look at a direction and check for movement

[gusty sandal]

mmmm wait until the nextFeedback loop

[upbeat sand]

subsonic+supressor

[grizzled whale]

scope glints are the best way to get killed in snipers only

[upbeat sand]

with iron sights

[grizzled whale]

you still have a scope glint

good luck hitting long range shots with iron sights

[upbeat sand]

iron sights and if you cant use iron sights cry some more

[ripe hedge]

The forums are awesome, but here its cool too... Twitter gets lots of eyes too...

[gusty sandal]

use iron sights Finland music intensifies

[upbeat sand]

use a slug shotgun

use the gvt S teir

[upbeat sand]

they should cry some more

[grizzled whale]

single pixel headshot, so satisfying

but the iron sights arent ideal when most of the engagements you have are 400m+ on hardcore

this dude just set himself up for an easy death

[upbeat sand]

dm7 is really good rn

[grizzled whale]

is it better than the svk

[gusty sandal]

do you find alot of people countering you with the AC-42? it used to be a beast to kill snipers

[grizzled whale]

its snipers only

so nope

on normal AOW yeah, i use the ac to counter mid range snipers too

[upbeat sand]

it aint a 2 shot just extremely low recoil (adsfov on)

and easy to hit shots and i think 3 shot up to 50m

[grizzled whale]

ehh

all i use it sws, ntw, mp9 and ac-42 anyway

still need to get the pistols to T1 but im gonna wait for hardcore to return

[upbeat sand]

you should try out the pbx

[grizzled whale]

cant be bothered doing that in core

[next onyx]

I gave the mp9 a go and the thing just melts people.

[grizzled whale]

ive already tried every weapon, mp9 best

[upbeat sand]

ahh

[next onyx]

Would be nice if it were like COD and you got a mastery skin for completing a category.

Alex. 👀

[grizzled whale]

@ripe hedge damascus when

[ripe hedge]

👏

[upbeat sand]

i personally like the pbx cause it has more range feels more powerful at longer ranges

[grizzled whale]

with my smg playstyle you dont need to worry about longe range

[next onyx]

My friend likes running the Pbx with subsonic rounds, He said it feels like an assault rifle.

[grizzled whale]

Hyper aggressive cqc

[next onyx]

Cause of the damage range with subsonic.

I want to give it a go when i can be bothered.

[upbeat sand]

for smgs i go pp29 and pbx

[grizzled whale]

lemme see if i got some smg clips

[upbeat sand]

i go pp29 when im sneaking up on enemies and the pbx when rushing

[next onyx]

The issue with the pp29 is that it does what the assault rifles can but better, Spread might be a bit worse than them but the damage range more than makes up for it.

[upbeat sand]

my main weapon is the m5a3 so im that guy

[grizzled whale]

damn

i actually have more clips with the Vcar than i have with actual smg's

[upbeat sand]

good

vcar is better

[grizzled whale]

i made twiggsy proud with this

[upbeat sand]

are you one of thos guys who waits after a revive to get an extra kill

[grizzled whale]

no that was just timing

[upbeat sand]

are

[grizzled whale]

heard someone coming and needed to reload

[quasi pendant]

1 F-35 VS 2 SU-57, but win https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gS1h2J6IbIE

[upbeat sand]

behold- pistols

[grizzled whale]

dont you dare quote MW gaz on me

[upbeat sand]

remembr switching to your pistol is always faster then reloading

[upbeat sand]

clean shaven angel

[ripe hedge]

im literally feeding on this conversation about weapons fuck yes

[grizzled whale]

happy alex

[next onyx]

Hampy.

[tall finch]

angry pkp-bp noises

[grizzled whale]

ah yes the pkp, the well known smg

[white geyser]

Man, the feedback on the EA's website I posted few days ago, I made a list BTW and one of them said doesn't want the gunship plane to be added in 2042, probably the terrible experience they had in the previous modern battlefield games they had using the gunship plane, that's stupid get better using the gunship plane noob, I can take down the gunship plane using the AA tank and you're finished.

[tall finch]

i would like if the lcmg recoil was reduced, using it on default fov feels like riding a bull, even the pkp is more controllable than the lcmg at default fov

[lucid goblet]

Hey Alex, i was talking to a friend over on twitter yesterday and they mentioned the single shot option has been removed from the PKP is this true and if so is there a reason? i've not tried the pkp since getting it to T1 so unsure myself lol

[upbeat sand]

me complaining to a brick wall about prone boris pkp players who uses their sentry as a spotter

[ripe hedge]

That is correct and it was my fault. The PKP does not have fire selector 🙂

[lucid goblet]

Figured that would be the case, appreciate the clarification

[surreal crystal]

Is pkp unusable now ??

[undone bone]

Boris got a kick in the face when they made it so his sentry couldn't get placed on a large amount of smaller ledges.

Use to be able to stick his turret on almost any ledge

[grizzled whale]

we need to keep kicking

[undone bone]

Now you can't place it on like the ledge of the building in manifest at B2

[grizzled whale]

as long as its hitbox is broken we need to nerf it even more

[low timber]

I’ve still managed to place it down so that one of the legs is way over the ledge

[undone bone]

Or the walkway between D1/D2

[undone bone]

Fix the hitbox, but let me place it on ledges so I can stay behind impenetrable cover while I repair it

[grizzled whale]

i will find you

and i will tbag you

[undone bone]

[undone bone]

That sounds like a threat

[arctic grove]

can you actually grapple vehicles now

[grizzled whale]

YOU CANT OUTRUN MY GRAPPLING HOOK

[arctic grove]

or do you still just grapple the location they were upon initial contact

[grizzled whale]

no you can fly behind a vehicle for a shile

while*

[pine roost]

Just cause style?

LOL

[pine roost]

According to catalyst they nerfed movement somewhat

[grizzled whale]

they removed mackay bhopping

[pine roost]

Oh and something else that wasn’t documented in the notes, both jets now have the same turn rates 🙂

[pine roost]

Didn’t they already fix that? After people were bhopping for miles at a time?

[grizzled whale]

they nerfed it i think

But now its pretty much completely gone

[pine roost]

Dang

[arctic grove]

Alex are you a big weapons dev in dice?

[ripe hedge]

If you mean big in rank, no, im as bottom of the trenches as it can be... if you mean big because im fat, then yes

[low timber]

Any VWIP weapon pics?

[silk surge]

Btw, are there any plans on buffing SFAR? It feels so weak in it's current iteration.

[arctic grove]

o and no

[grand prism]

I just saw that 2,119 some players logged in 2042 on steam

[arctic grove]

ok

[grand prism]

2042 is great again

I've been playing non stop after the new update

[ripe hedge]

Yes, we are waiting on telemetry to confirm some feedback 🙂

[jagged snow]

Same its gotten pretty decent since the last patch

[grand prism]

@ripe hedge thank you for making 2042 great again i'm enjoying it alot

I'm extremely happy

[woven acorn]

I love that they've added the feature where you can see which gear your squad is carrying. Huge step in the right direction towards the squad play we're used to

[upbeat sand]

everyone has, now all we need is to let the devs finish map changes

[pine roost]

I’m just surprised how many important changes haven’t been mentioned in the notes

[woven acorn]

I'm yet to update and jump on. Gonna do that today sometime

[grand prism]

Yes

[woven acorn]

I completely forgot the update was today. The games been unchanged for so long I've kind of forgotten about it

[ripe hedge]

Im glad you are enjoying it, the team did an incredible work 🙂

[gaunt swift]

It was so broken it makes sense why it took them this long on just fixes. Now we just need to let them work on content without telling em to kill themselves every 5 seconds

[upbeat sand]

very playable and better weapon balancing, the specialist Rao's passive has been changed to piak's passive, spot enemies when they damage you while piak has been given a new one where you spot enemies by damaging them

[grand prism]

This brings a tear in my eye to see a beautiful masterpiece

[pine roost]

I still feel there’s more to be done before I could see myself playing it ‘full time’, but working out those bugs that seem minor but do impact the experience, that aren’t ranted about on Reddit is good

[woven acorn]

The fact people felt like they could behave in that way in the first place is a disgrace to gaming

[upbeat sand]

games gonna get better then june comes around

[woven acorn]

The development cycle of the game will make a great case study for future development courses taught to the next generation, so there's that silver lining

[upbeat sand]

wonder whats the next patch is gonna bring

[ripe hedge]

💪 Not there yet, plenty of work remaining on all fronts

[grand prism]

This right here is salvation and hope thank you EA

[gaunt swift]

The game feels like its in beta in its current stage, what with the lack of content and still exisiting bugs. Theres a lot of work to be done but i feel they can get this game to a stage where its actually competent if not even good

[upbeat sand]

eyy better than what cold war did with releasing the season in the middle of it being broken and unplayable so you end up on missing out on content because you cant play the game

[gaunt swift]

What i still fail to understand tough is the haters. They shit on this game for all the wrong reasons. Theres so much you can complain about so much that needs to be improved still. And you choose to get mad at an old russian with a blanket on him. Months after that skin was leaked.
And these same haters compare this game to COD which need i remind you has titans, snoop Dogg. And now even godzilla

[shy latch]

yo, yesterday I played a lot on 2042, the new update on PC uses more GPU and I had to activate the DSR (or whatever is called the resolution autoscaling for non nVidia cards) but for some reason it seems to be smoother and faster movements, I don't know if it's due to the animation modification, to the mouse fix or both

[upbeat sand]

wait cod has fucking snoop dog wtf is going on over there

call of fortnite shit

[gaunt swift]

This. This right here. Id much rather the developers fix the broken game before adding content than adding more shit on a broken pile of mess

[gaunt swift]

Yeah. And he looks like a pimp

[upbeat sand]

bugs first, content later

make the game good and playable before content

and thats exactly what their doing and its great

[naive trellis]

What's your GPU, and its usage percent?

[gaunt swift]

Yupp. Plus. They are legally obligated if im not wrong to provide 4 seasons of content. So even if the people at ea decide to kill it. We will atleast get 4 seasons.

Would be shame tough if they kill it ngl

[upbeat sand]

cries in amd but they do have rsr now so budget dsr

[shy latch]

5500 XT with 8GB of VRAM, it's always around 97% and 99%, everything is disabled or on low settings in game and I'm playing on 64p servers because surely can't handle 128

[upbeat sand]

im sure with how large the budget is and how its a AAA EA game it would last for about 2 years

and there has been similar games that ended up bringing it back around like cyberpunk, mafia 3 ect

ok now i just want to play more mafia 3

[gaunt swift]

One look at youtube and twitter will show you how much people still hate this game(and dice). Even if it makes a comeback which at this stage seems highly unlikely (again seeing how toxic the casual fanbase has become) it wont be getting content for as long as it normally would have, atleast thats what i think

[upbeat sand]

hopefully we get enough for have a fun time for a long while

[eternal storm]

echo chambers

[gaunt swift]

I mean Battlefront 2 did a massive 180 and that got killed before we could even get ashoka so resources could be shifted to this one. Im quite confident the same will happen again with this to the next Battlefield. Or maybe even a new Battlefront. God i hope we get a new Battlefront

[vestal olive]

Quality speaks for them selves

[gaunt swift]

Echo chambers?

[shy latch]

whatever it is it helps me a tiny bit, on yesterday I was playing at 48 FPS instead before the update (or with the update and the dsr/rsr/rock'n'rolla/blah-bla-blah -stuff/whatever-they-want-to-call-it activated) I was able to play at 60 FPS, that is fine fine for me because my monitor is 60 Hz

[upbeat sand]

i tried battlefront 2 when i got a month of ea play steam and i did not play 1 game cause i couldent get into a forsaken game cause the player base got killed

and also aus so regional shit

[eternal storm]

well yeah? youtube presents shit it thinks we might like, and most 'big' youtubers know shitting on a game will garner views....so we go searching on youtube and get presented with an idea we already had in our minds before we open the video...same for twitter

perpetual reinforcement

[gaunt swift]

Man i installed bfV like 3 days ago. Finding a full lobby was so easy thanks to the browser (something this game still doesn't have, hopefully will be added) and yeah got into a TDM game. Halfway through the map was a LITERAL mess. Building destroyed lots of damage and rubble and shit just thrown around. I mean the map felt like a Battlefield for lack of a better word. And that was TDM ffs. The most that happens in 2042 is a sign will fall off a building in korea. We NEED more destruction.

[upbeat sand]

with the rsr amd has now i was able to pump the graphics on apex and get a smooth 90+ on ultra (depending on the map) by upscaling a 900p to 1080p with rsr so god bless graphics cards even if it shoots a while through wallets

[gaunt swift]

I mean. Twitter is a cesspool for a cesspool.

[shy latch]

did you do it in game or from the adrenalin panel? and have you done it on 2042 also?

[pine roost]

I love getting in a tdm match with a good player and battling it out for top scores for an hour

[eternal storm]

i think they spent too much effort going down the 128 player route, meaning bigger maps, performance issues. played 32vs32 conquest earlier and it was great, if the game stayed on a smaller scale the maps could have been made more dense with objects/foliage/stuff

[pine roost]

But of course we can’t do that now because of disbanding lobbies

[upbeat sand]

i tried it in 3.3 i think and it gave me about 10+ fps cause of the bottleneck the game gives me but its basically the game

so i switched it back to 1080 cause its not worth it

[shy latch]

oh ok, so maybe what I did is just something on the borderline, even tho I don't understand what's the meaning of 100%, 50% and 25% (in-game settings), apparently there is no difference at least in the menu

[upbeat sand]

u mean the resoloution thing in advanced settings under graphics?

i think it lowers the graphic resoloution (not including the hud) to make fps go up depending on what % you choose

COD does the game thing but better

[shy latch]

I mean the percentage setting that is activated once you select the dynamic resolution to on

[shy latch]

yeah I though so, but probably isn't activated in the menu because I saw no difference, only during matches I guess

[upbeat sand]

idk i think it changes the dynamic resoloution to try to make your fps match the hz of your monitor

but idk i have no idea i think the devs might know

[shy latch]

there are too many settings 😅 when I had the PlayStation my life was easier from this point of view

[upbeat sand]

eyy you get more fps

[shy latch]

but M+K is much much better to play a shooter game

especially mouse, for the keyboard I would like to have a couple of more fingers....

[flat brook]

2042 is the greatest game ever

[shy latch]

yo Janz

[upbeat sand]

my friend is a apex god and plays on ps4 original and can aim better than me so its all

skill issue but m+k is easier

[shy latch]

oh yeah, of course is a matter of skill as well

[pine roost]

The whole controller vs keyboard is going to be a never ending war isn’t it

[upbeat sand]

who cares on how you game

if you game you game simple as that

[shy latch]

I have to admit that I found aiming with mouse easily than the analog stick of the controller

but controller have the advantage that is easier to reach all the buttons

[upbeat sand]

unless if its 90% of mobile shit then fuc you well unless your playing something like monster hunter stories mobile port (it was a 3ds game with better graphics)

great game and putting it onto mobile is better

well not better just more convenient controls are harder on mobile

[naive trellis]

Res scaling reduces your "3D" resolution, whilst keeping your UI rendered at your native resolution, so you have UI clarity. Hope that makes sense.

[pine roost]

Speaking of resolution, is there any technical reason why TAA is forced for the last two games?

It makes everything so much worse. Objects blur together, edges are fuzzy and no option to disable it entirely makes no sense to me

[upbeat sand]

i want a specialist who's gadget is jarate

[arctic grove]

also please dont use dynamic resolution

if you can use dlss or just scale the resolution down instead

[visual gazelle]

I just got a gaming PC and I'm having a hard time aiming with mouse and keyboard, ha ha. I guess 15+ years of playing with a controller, that muscle memory isn't transitioning well.

[shy latch]

I see, yeah make sense

[shy latch]

the problem is for people (like me) that don't own nVidia gpu there is no dlss, I will try your suggestion to scale the resolution down even tho I'm afraid to see "blurry" but I'll try

[arctic grove]

just please dont use dynamic resolution

you arent on console to suffer like that

(assuming console still uses dynamic res nowadays)

[pine roost]

I had dynamic res enabled on titanfall 2 and it was horrendous

Then once I realised what it was I disabled it of course, it was just awful

[arctic grove]

just use a different aspect ratio or scale your resolution down

avoid dynamic resolution at all costs

[tall finch]

what part of dice/ea do you work on?

[naive trellis]

Frostbite

[tall finch]

oh ok, just out of curiousity what language does frostbite use?

im into javascript, python and c++

[naive trellis]

I can't really discuss the tech, sorry.

[tall finch]

ok

[shy latch]

I had the same problem, on YouTube I found some useful guides on how to find the "perfect" sensitivity and help me a lot; of course it's not magic and doesn't make you a pro, but it helps to find something very similar to your natural mouse movements and then with very few more tweaks while playing (and continuosly "train") it definitely help to aim better

[pine roost]

Quick piece of advice, if you ever delve into aim training I’d recommend changing your sensitivities after every task ever so slightly, and even experimenting with 5-10 cm/360.
I use 30cm, but by training on 5cm I improved so much quicker

[tall finch]

can you discuss how long update 4.0 has been in development, its a HUGE patch and being a indie dev myself it pains to see that many patches all at once under pressure from the community

deeval why are u typing for so long

[shy latch]

I did a sort of it, I mean at the beginning I used a lot the wrist and my 360° was about 9 cm, instead now is something like 27 because (thanks also to the guides I found) I feel more natural to use a mix of wrist and arm, i use this last one for fast movements like 180° now and wrist for aiming

[pine roost]

Yeah that’s good

People often say you should choose wrist aim or arm aim, when in reality you use both all the time

[shy latch]

exactly, it's the same thing that I thought

[pine roost]

Do you use aimlab/ kovaak’s?

[tall finch]

pls chat this in #general

[pine roost]

Good point

[tall finch]

i use aimlab

[shy latch]

you are right, sorry

[tall finch]

its fine, just use aimlab, kovaaks is trash

[vital latch]

is it me or the svk damage was nerfed?

[shy latch]

not sure about it, maybe I'm wrong but the SVK recoil seems to be a tiny bit better now with the attachment overhaul

[grizzled whale]

is it more than a 2 shot at any range?

[shy latch]

and yesterday I forgot to check the PKP tho 😩

[vital latch]

ye

[shy latch]

if I'm not wrong it has been always like that unless you are using high power bullets, 3 shot if using the standard one; wasn't it?

[grizzled whale]

then ye

[vital latch]

sometimes 4 lol

[grizzled whale]

ehrm, lemme check

[river sequoia]

What are peoples feeling on the latest patch?

[grizzled whale]

lots of good things, few bad thingfs

[vital latch]

even with high power, which is weird

[shy latch]

it's very very good

[vital latch]

not enough

[river sequoia]

Bad as in wasn't fixed, or added bad things?

[vital latch]

but right direction

[grizzled whale]

they removed mackays bunny hopping

[river sequoia]

Personally I felt good playing a few rounds with the update, but could be by chance. Need to test more.

[shy latch]

but I found a couple of animation glitches 😂 , one happened with tactital run but to fix just need to stop and re-run

[grizzled whale]

oh yeah, ive always used the high power rounds

[river sequoia]

Isn't that good?

[grizzled whale]

no

[fierce gull]

Sure they removed his bunny hopping
But now you can spider man to vehicles

[shy latch]

😳

[grizzled whale]

his extreme mobility made him perfect fro my playstyle

still is, but a lot less nimble now

[river sequoia]

You couldn't before?
Good tactic to get to enemy vehicles, plant some C5 and then off it goes

[fierce gull]

Before the update
The grapple would just stick mid air if you try to grapple onto a vehicle

[low timber]

Wow, the 50mm cannon is underwhelming.

[grizzled whale]

50mm?

[tall finch]

why

[low timber]

On the car

[tall finch]

on the car it sucks use the 30mm but on the gunship its just OP

[low timber]

12 shots on MBT behind and barely half damage.

[tall finch]

bruh

best cannon for the latv4 is the 30mm

[grizzled whale]

damn, they really did nerf the SVK

3-4 shot with high power rounds now

thats kinda doo doo

[low timber]

Damn, almost killed a night bird with the 50mm, hit 3 shots

[grizzled whale]

just get a 57mm wildcat, its easy chopper hunting

[shy latch]

so now the SVK is similar to DM7 but slower fire rate and worse recoil

[low timber]

I know, once got most vehicles destroyed thanks to the 57mm and enemy helis

[grizzled whale]

ive gotten 39 vehicles destroyed with the wildcat once

you can hunt anything

[river sequoia]

What handheld weapon is "good" now then?

[grizzled whale]

ac-42, mp9, sws

[river sequoia]

For me the AC-42 still works amazing

[flat tusk]

Use the scar, it has 0 recoil lol

[grizzled whale]

the scar is so shit

[shy latch]

really? did they modify the SCAR-F as well? 🤔

[grizzled whale]

its the weapon i HATED the most getting to T1

[flat tusk]

Single shot is better than any dmr tho

[grizzled whale]

single shot is garbage too

i can outperform it with a Vcar

maybe because the scar bugged out my entire game

[woven token]

Sorry if this isn't the correct section for this but can't seem to find a dedicated help section.

Trying to play the new update but my mouse input still feels atrocious. My mouse seems to skip around and trying to control recoil or accurately flick to someone is impossible. I've tried deleting my Battlefield 2042 folder in my documents and that hasn't changed anything. I've tried with raw input on and off.

I've got a Logitech G Pro Wireless at 400 DPI with a polling rate of 500hz (I tried 1000hz, same issue). Windows sens is 6/11 and mouse accel is off.

Unsure what to do to fix this.

Can anyone help with mouse input issues?

🚨🚨🚨 BREAKING NEW LEAK https://twitter.com/temporyal/status/1516748523244507143?s=21&t=_beDcp0EBBPMzRrNmEueRg

[lyric locust]

hows new balance? any idea on what weapon is good now?

[tribal obsidian]

The best gun is the 45-70

[river sequoia]

The what?

[tribal obsidian]

The 45-70

Holy shit the sig bid just won the ngsw bid and the designation is the XM5

2042 irl?

[lyric locust]

so... m4?

[royal swan]

Bro the bolte somehow got more annoying

[silk surge]

AC-42 is still hard meta. They didn't nerf it enough.

But most of the guns are viable, unless you pick SFAR, that gun is practically useless.

[calm bison]

I disagree

The SFAR is actually pretty good. The GL is pretty effective if you can aim the damn thing

And the gun itself isn’t uncontrollable

[grizzled whale]

kek, tiny spawntrap

[chilly jacinth]

too bad it sometimes shoots at max rpm and then other times for some reason shoots at like half rpm

[silk surge]

54 v 31 lmao

I'm guessing it's a PORTAL community server with a lazy admin?

[grizzled whale]

even with more players, their spawn was completely surrounded

[grizzled whale]

well yeah that too

[wanton tiger]

The SFAR is actually quite viable. It can be awkward to use at first because of the really low mag count, but with the extended mag, it feels good, same with the standard round conversion if you like the faster RPM. also the under barrel GL is equally, if not maybe even stronger than the Recoilless if you use armor piercing grenades

[woven token]

b

[wanton tiger]

I play on Ps5 so I can't help you

[woven token]

All goods g just hoping someone who can help sees it

[raw shard]

the game feels much better atm no?

Like the performance seems better now

[wanton tiger]

Aiming feels snappier. Lock ons are still garbage though

Like Stinger and Soflam are still painfully inconsistent

[woven token]

Not for me, my FPS has dropped from 110 to 50 despite me lowering my settings and my mouse input feels like it's got an 18 year long delay on it

[raw shard]

I had fps freezes before but they seem to be gone atm

[river trench]

Steam player count?

[wanton tiger]

Probably just above 2k

I wouldn't expect an activity spike until Season 1

[raw shard]

3k it says

[wanton tiger]

New record

[raw shard]

was under 1k couple weeks ago iirc

thats an improvement

[compact sleet]

People are starting to realize dice is fixing it and it’s on the right path

[hearty flame]

Those numbers will only matter if they stay

[runic prism]

Im going in my first match of the day. Joining a match that is almost over + i spawn and get killed by a chopper wtf is this game

[woven token]

Have you not ever played another bf game?

[runic prism]

I swear i always get cancer from this game when i join my fucking first match BECAUSE IT’S ALREADY STARTED AMK

[fierce gull]

they also finally made the condor not spin anymore when it explodes

[raw shard]

thats literally an only in battlefield thing, nothing special for 2042

[runic prism]

Stfu kid this is pure bullshit . 200 points left

[runic prism]

Nah this game

[raw shard]

https://tenor.com/view/imma-head-out-gif-19231737

[runic prism]

Nice gif lol

[woven token]

Bro that's been in like every bf game

Maybe not being insta-killed on spawn, thats a little worse in 2042 than V imo but joining towards the end of a game

In V I've literally joined as the game ends and been instantly put in a diff loading screen

200 points isn't bad

[raw shard]

it happens in every bf games. Like hadnt we all baseraped in the past in bf3 and bf4

[copper fulcrum]

Pure hell is the Germans spawncamping the Soviets in Berlin in Battlefield 1942

Trust me, this has always happened but it can be fought back

[woven token]

I know, it's just a lil worse in 2042 than V especially when spawning on squad mates

[woven token]

^^

[copper fulcrum]

Although the usage of Transport Choppers like the Condor and Hind very much help prevent spawncamping

[woven token]

God I wanna play this game but mouse input is so scuffed

[raw shard]

Yup cannot deny that one, however, the guy above you two is complaining nonsense

[copper fulcrum]

It's not like Spawncamping is a thing that has existed in every single game, including the original Doom deathmatch lol

If you have pre-determined spawns in a Multiplayer game, it can get camped.

[woven token]

I know, honestly kinda sucks how negatively people go into this game now. The game is most definitely not complete but it is still super fun, people go into it now trying to find something to nitpick

[woven token]

Wait till they see people prefiring spawns through walls on COD

You can get chain killed for a good few mins through walls there

[copper fulcrum]

1v1ing on Nuketown but it's just one guy in the middle shooting through buildings and killing the other guy nanoseconds after he spawns

[woven token]

Super fun dying for 3 mins straight, but no we must not give 2042 a chance

We have to wait until the next battlefield releases, then we can come back and enjoy this one like we did with BFV

[grizzled whale]

the good old day

[copper fulcrum]

The vicious Battlefield Cycle

Still hoping the next Portal addition is Vietnam or BF2

[woven token]

Vietnam would be amazing

I want backstab from bf2

[grizzled whale]

2142 would be great

it slows down then skips quickly

[grizzled whale]

reinstall?

[woven token]

Just wanna play, deleted my whole settings folder, messed with mouse settings

[grizzled whale]

did you report it on the forums yet?

[woven token]

It's been this way for like 3 months now

I'ma try a reinstall, just mad I've paid $150 AU for this game and I'm given a tech support simulator

[gaunt swift]

But it is pretty shit all things considered

[grizzled whale]

i love the map

[gaunt swift]

Aleast its not as toxic as half the bfV vechicle dominated maps

[gaunt swift]

I could definitely be better

[woven token]

[grizzled whale]

did they fix the wallbreach on renewal yet?

[lofty nymph]

new content after 5 months or nah

[woven token]

wait till 6 years from now, at least they're legally obligated to release some shit as they've gotta fill 4 seasons worth of content

[lofty nymph]

💀

new bf coming in 2023 anyway

surely we all preorder again

[gaunt swift]

Which one is that? I feel ive heard that name before

[woven token]

Rumour has it season 1 is gonna released as DLC for the next battlefields portal v2.0

[runic prism]

Thid is a airport FUCK HOURGLASS

[grizzled whale]

the map with the big wall

low key salt

[gaunt swift]

Ah. Yes. That one. Could fucking run a marathon in the time if takes to traverse that

[grizzled whale]

redeploy

[runic prism]

Fucking hourglass cancer

[grizzled whale]

we get it you dont like the map

[runic prism]

Nah fucking dice with that fucking map needs to fuck off

Im so pissed

[grizzled whale]

we get it you dont like it, no need to get so toxic in here

[runic prism]

And then we’re doing our best ye this map is the baddest map in any game

[gaunt swift]

Yes. Fuck the developers because you in particular dont like something about something

[grizzled whale]

hourglass is a good map

[runic prism]

We see it on steam

[gaunt swift]

Debatable......

[grizzled whale]

couple infantry parts, large vehicle area and a combined area

[next onyx]

Ah no wonder why my performance dipped, It's caused Ray tracing was forced on.

[grizzled whale]

has everything a map needs

[runic prism]

Yo ur so funny fuck u

[undone bone]

Ayo, chill out please.

[grizzled whale]

why are you so toxic

[woven token]

Except for cover, pls add some cover to hourglass

[runic prism]

Because ur making jokes right now

[grizzled whale]

in the infantry places theres anough cover

im not making jokes, im listing what the map has

[gaunt swift]

It FEELS off. Its got everything you could want but it still doesn't work. Not to mention that fucking annoying sandstorm

[runic prism]

Ye there is nothing . It’s like ubisoft helped ea to make this map

[runic prism]

Thaths why everyone is saying maps are shit because there is no cover lool

[gaunt swift]

Lol i thought the complains with ubisoft was it had too much bs in it

[woven token]

I would like a metro/operation underground style map pls

[grizzled whale]

the stadium and city area are great for infantry play, the middle of the map is a large vehicle battleground, and the sanded in city is a nice combination

[eternal storm]

anyone down to try out a new tactical 4 player game? its free?? this shit needs to go viral- not new technically

[royal trail]

the game keep telling me that ive been promoted after every match even tho i havent, sad times

[undone bone]

Tis a bug the devs are aware of already.

[royal trail]

aight

[gaunt swift]

Fuck WW3

[runic prism]

He is a joke mate . If he says it is perfect ye he definitely needs to stay away from creating maps lmao

[woven token]

I find the stadium rarely gets heated because it's basically a spawn area, the city area is pretty open tho helicopters reign supreme

[eternal storm]

not ww3! here ill msg ya a video this shit is awesome

[undone bone]

Would've been better if it held more true to the concept art.

[grizzled whale]

personally attacking people because you dont like a map?

[gaunt swift]

Atleast hes bing civil lil

[runic prism]

Nah ur just talking so shit

[grizzled whale]

oh 100%, but the map as it is has a bit of everything

[grizzled whale]

everything i said is true

[runic prism]

Ur just a fanboy i know these guys. He will always defend the game even if it’s bad

[grizzled whale]

defending the game and disproving false claims is 2 different things

[runic prism]

Why do you think that dice is gonna change some maps. BECAUSE EVERYONE WAS SAYING THAT THE MAPS WERE SHIT LOOL

[grizzled whale]

especially when you havent given a single reason why the map is bad]

[gaunt swift]

🍿

[runic prism]

NO COVER . BULLSHIT DESIGN + UBISOFT HELPED WITH CREATING THE HOURGLASS MAP

[dapper berry]

be more specific ?

[grizzled whale]

theres plenty of cover in the infantry areas

[runic prism]

IN THE OBJECTIVES HAHAHAHAHA . MAP IS BIG OBJECTIVES ARE 5% OF THE MAP

[runic prism]

Check reddit or twitter u will see the details

[dapper berry]

i'm asking you tho

[runic prism]

IM NOT GONNA SPEND MY TIME on u

[undone bone]

If you'd like to debate stuff here, a good way to do that is to explain your viewpoint.

[grizzled whale]

no cover on objectives?

[torpid fulcrum]

I can't update bf2042 from steam right now, do you have the same error?

[runic prism]

Like you're going to change something lmao

[dapper berry]

oyster IQ, got it

[runic prism]

NO COVER OUTSIDE THE OBJECTIVE . deaf child

[dapper berry]

what's the point of just spewing toxicity in a discord channel

[grizzled whale]

this dude is so mad

[runic prism]

Nah im getting sick of the cancer hourglass

[dapper berry]

it's fascinating

[grizzled whale]

@undone bone can you do something about this dude?

[eternal storm]

lol i blocked him yest

[arctic grove]

Hourglass just needs a bigger vehicle pop and the objects moved a bit and would work

[runic prism]

Ur crying ?

[grizzled whale]

so toxic for no reason bro

[dapper berry]

he probably has a reason but it has nothing to do with 2042 or this channel

[undone bone]

Let's move on plez.

[dapper berry]

it needs more imo, the city area needs to be expanded a bit more

when i saw the trailer i thought it was gonna be dawnbreaker 2.0, not silk road 0.5

[little dust]

when's that heli FOV fix coming? rather how many months?

[grizzled whale]

i dont get people complain about hourglass being an open desert map, but have no problems with El alamein

[fierce gull]

cuz nostalgia

[grizzled whale]

which is pretty mush an open desert with a couple outposts and a big rock in the middle

[dapper berry]

i think it has more to do with the fact that the city is just right there, but it's kind of unexploited

[gaunt swift]

Allright. Now that cancer is over. Heres why hourglass actually sucks

[little dust]

given when it was released it's understandable, even if it's been reworked it'll still have that empty feeling

[dapper berry]

same thing with kaleidoscope, they teased the urban areas but what we got was a big park in the middle of a city

[fierce gull]

I mean they did show a park when they first showed the map lol

[fervent grotto]

Yea I feel like a lot of the scenes they showed in the trailers don’t exist

[fierce gull]

gameplay or cinematic?

[gaunt swift]

1. its a 2042 map
2. theres not enough cover when moving between objectives and when its an open fucking desert and most people (who are on foot) are easy targets.
3. the cover that is near obectives(apart from the stadium, we will get to that later) are more around the objective than on it. The objectives themselves for the most part are plain and open.
4. the rooftop objectives. A camper's wet dream. Need i say more
5. the fucking stadium. If you have the high ground. You have automatically won unless the opponents literally death corps of kreig charge at you.
   And more but i dont wanna write an essay.

[dapper berry]

they exist but they're usually on the side, like the damavand nostalgia helipad

[compact sleet]

There’s hills? Maybe don’t go outside the objective?

[dapper berry]

he's muted

[grizzled whale]

Ive solo cleared and capped in the stadium countless times, invalid argument

[little dust]

warzone got a snoop dogg bundle lol kind of thing we need

[gaunt swift]

NOPE its valid. If a serious group of people decide to camp the stairs from the above they can annahilate people climbing. Not as valid for the stands but still possible.

[grizzled whale]

also i dont get what "the highground" is in the stadium

[arctic grove]

Need a good city map in the game an some more smaller infantry maps

[fierce gull]

there would be a riot if snoop dogg was added to 2042

[grizzled whale]

you know the stairs are like 1 of 10 ways to get up top right?

[gaunt swift]

No we dont. Yall got toxic because he who shall not be named got a cowboy skin.

[grizzled whale]

you can go around on both sides

[little dust]

xD that's the ninnies that think bf is some hardcore milsim

[dapper berry]

totally, there needs to be a map that makes you feel excited when you see it loading, and i think they're trying to make kaleidoscope their flagship map

[grizzled whale]

you can go in between the outer wall and the inner part and flank around and over as mackay

[gaunt swift]

Dont say his name.

[grizzled whale]

you can use the elevators, people hardly camp on those

[arctic grove]

I love the warhammer reference

[gaunt swift]

I love warhammer.

[grizzled whale]

you can grapple up on the outside of the stairway and get behind the people camping

just people camping the stairs isnt really a valid reason to call the stadium bad

[arctic grove]

And the maps should look more like a war is going some caps base so think

[grizzled whale]

theres so many ways to get around that

[gaunt swift]

I refuse to do anything thats even REMOTELY related to him. He needs to dissapear from the world.

[arctic grove]

Death korp are my favourite

[little dust]

it's okay, the canadian can't hurt you

[gaunt swift]

They are good. But sly marbo shits on everyone.

[grizzled whale]

the stadium actually used to be my main kill farming spot when going for T1, just cap one of 2 objectives, and constantly go around them and kill them, easy 100+ kills

[dapper berry]

yeah, i think they were going for a "first contact" feel with pristine maps and cities, but it didn't really catch on

[grizzled whale]

Mackay is the best specialist

[arctic grove]

Iv got into the Custodes at the mo

[gaunt swift]

He is the root of all evil.

[grizzled whale]

THEN I MUST BE THE DEVIL

[dapper berry]

that's angel

[arctic grove]

Yeah they should probably just re do maps

[gaunt swift]

I would let the custodes rip me in half and shit on my corpse.

[fierce gull]

Mackay has the best jokes and can ride vehicles with his grapple

he is batman but not depressed

[grizzled whale]

he is depressed now that he cant bhop anymore

[gaunt swift]

NO. angel is an angel. The one who shall not be named is the one who will bring about the end times. We need to end him first

Fuck him

[grizzled whale]

You cant end mackay, he is eternal

[arctic grove]

Baldermort's Guide to Warhammer is really good for lore vids

[compact sleet]

Is there anything worse than the devil?

[gaunt swift]

Then my crusade against him shall be enternal

[grizzled whale]

fortnite

[compact sleet]

You are fortnite

[ripe hedge]

All you need to know is that Necrons are the superior option to anything else.

[grizzled whale]

you will fail

[gaunt swift]

Fortnite battlepass

[dapper berry]

he will just grapple away man, focus on yourself hit the gym delete facebook

[gaunt swift]

Majorkill and luetin are the goats still

[fierce gull]

can you tell me who fixed Mackay's grapple
I wanna give hugs

[arctic grove]

tyranids old ones new super weapons

[arctic grove]

I listen to Majorkill

[little dust]

mackay's under crosshair icon for grapplehook cd is missing and it makes me sad

[gaunt swift]

Lol custodians shit on necrons. Kitten destroyed both TZEENCH and the emperor in a card game. What more do you need to know

[placid echo]

If you can still grapple into the recon drone, I wonder if you can use it as some weird elevator

[gaunt swift]

Also. Fabulous custodes and brother santodes exist so any and all rebuttle is automatically invalid

[grizzled whale]

dont think the drone is fast enough

[placid echo]

Since you now follow what's attached to it

[ripe hedge]

No idea but i can probably shout in the hallway and see who replies

[grizzled whale]

the grapple will catch up to the drone

[little dust]

do it 🙂 but also tell them to fix the cd icon for it 😛

[placid echo]

Nothing better than two loud people shouting in an office

[arctic grove]

Can you put a bolter in battlefield please

[grizzled whale]

can you stare at them angrily for removing the bhopping

[gaunt swift]

Man if you could halo grapple then he who shall not be named would actually have been a smidge of fun. Despite....... Being..... him..... But makes sense why thats not a thing. Hes the devil, not a spartan

[arctic grove]

Valdor shits on all he was so over powering the emperor had to nerf him

[grizzled whale]

why do you hate the godly being that is mackay so much

[gaunt swift]

The emperor couldnt nerf him

[gaunt swift]

Because it Exists. Its sheer existance is the cause of repulsion. The mere mention of its name jacks off all evil. and its voice lines are evil

[grizzled whale]

what about mackay makes you dislike him

[ripe hedge]

i can only hope

[grizzled whale]

if we were talking about boris i would agree

but mackay is just great

[ripe hedge]

Absolutely not i love them for that

[grizzled whale]

wow

i dont like you anymore

[upbeat sand]

One of the things they should do is to not kick you out of a match at the end

[gaunt swift]

Make a 40k Battlefield

That would be so much fun.

[grizzled whale]

new spacemarine game though

[gaunt swift]

Its got the Smurfs but i liked the first one so im intregued.

[arctic grove]

He tried to lol

[solar minnow]

Man we need stationary AA guns..

[arctic grove]

Try next meeting

[arctic grove]

Yes yea please

[tawny carbon]

We need a anti tank rifle for boltes

[solar minnow]

Boltes need the health reduce

[compact sleet]

Boltes just need to be two shot to AGMs

But still keep them in the light section

[grizzled whale]

why though

[solar minnow]

Cause every other battlefield had them.

[grizzled whale]

ok

they aint really needed in 2042

[solar minnow]

Why?

[grizzled whale]

because the wildcat is effective enough'

[solar minnow]

Yeah but with reduce armor it’s harder to get one.

[celest sinew]

Also the Stingers Plus SOFLAM

[grizzled whale]

^

[celest sinew]

Kinda redundant to have AAs

[solar minnow]

Good luck getting someone to use Soflam effectively.

[celest sinew]

I've had teammates do it effectively

[grizzled whale]

air vehicles are rarely ever an issue

[celest sinew]

Especially Jets

I'd say the most threatening air vehicle is the Transport Aircraft

[dapper river]

Not to worry, most transport pilots are completely clueless and don't realize how effective they are against nightbirds and jets so they all try to run like pussies.

[grizzled whale]

gets shot with an anti armor round of an M44 flies around the map 76 times and crashes

[hexed mango]

well i try to fight them but my stupid gunners don’t shoot for shit

[solar minnow]

That’s like 75% of the time

[compact sleet]

Accurate

[hexed mango]

yeah i need to make friends

[dapper river]

And other times the opposite happens and the pilot is busy fucking around and pulling evasives and the gunners can't hit anything as a result:

[grizzled whale]

i hate it when gunners are incompetent

[primal flax]

dam found a good squad on 2042

but since it doesn't just take the same squad and put you in a new server now i may never know who they are again

[grizzled whale]

same goes for wildcat support gunners
Your minigun isnt gonna do much damage to the chopper/jet im shooting at, focus on killing the infantry thats ACTIVELY SHOOTING AT ME WITH ROCKETS

[solar minnow]

Yeah the transports are only threatening with good players

[primal flax]

but i did send them friend request but you know how that goes

[grizzled whale]

and then they just bail after one rocket hits

[visual gazelle]

Would be nice to at least have it the Apex Legends way where you can invite the last squad you played with to go for another match.

[cobalt flower]

40k expac when

[upbeat sand]

What would you say is the best ar in the game

[fervent grotto]

Well it’s probably not an lmg

And not an smg either

[upbeat sand]

Lmgs are for people who don't like reloading

[fervent grotto]

I love to reload but I still maimed the starter lmg

Also do we know when new guns are coming and how they’ll be unlocked?

[upbeat sand]

The main lmg is fun but the pkp (pre nerf) is just way to hard to counter

[fervent grotto]

Cus ima be honest I don’t even have all the base game guns

[upbeat sand]

Weapons in season 1 aka June-July

[fervent grotto]

Battlepass I’m guessing?

[upbeat sand]

Yes battlepass

[fervent grotto]

Oh

[fierce gull]

weapons on the battlepass probably not

[upbeat sand]

Most profitable way to make money rn in the industry I guess thanks fortnite

[fervent grotto]

So like cod then. Well that’s fine. As long as you can unlock them afterwards

[fierce gull]

the battlepass is probably just gonna have weapon skins and specialists

and takedowns

and robo dog skins

[dapper river]

Recent players tab, bro

[pulsar vine]

They still gotta make tier 100 good

[pulsar vine]

Or worth grinding for

[upbeat sand]

I wonder if they are gonna be like bf4/bf1 or bfv where you either do missions to get it or just pay for it with the free in game currency

[fierce gull]

I bet tier 100 is gonna be some "legendary" skin for the new specialist

[pulsar vine]

Possibly and likely I wouldn’t expect like apex legends tier 100 weapon skins

[upbeat sand]

I wonder if they are gonna add melee takedowns in the battlepass

And what the weapon skins since they used up all the original season skins with the white hexagon shit

[next onyx]

The sooner they nerf/remove armour the sooner the game will heal.

[compact sleet]

Idk. They could turn specialists into elites like in bfv and then have the different classes with sub classes that allow you to use specialist abilities. Like a sub class for assault could be “mackays apprentice” or smthn allowing you to use his grapple and such

[fierce gull]

I feel like they are gonna split the specialists for the specialist update

[upbeat sand]

That would make sence since having a green camo man who specialises in spotting and recon using a shotgun running around wouldn't make that much sence

[compact sleet]

Sense*

[crimson epoch]

yoo anyone know how to fix to open game !!?

[upbeat sand]

[glossy storm]

Apparently, you can still clip through the map, even after the update.

[crimson epoch]

mean i need restart origin 3 4 for time for open my bf2042 !!

[upbeat sand]

Go to folder and run bf2042.exe as admin and wait

Or run origin as admin

[crimson epoch]

every single time !!?

[upbeat sand]

So just run origin as admin

Yes every time

[crimson epoch]

omg !!

[upbeat sand]

Origin needs admin

[crimson epoch]

ty

[upbeat sand]

It's better than the genshit launcher who I think is trying to steal my search history for the ccp

[gaunt swift]

Steam doesn't give me any problems and that opens origin. Idk what yall are on about

[gaunt swift]

I can only assume you are talking about the POS epic launcher

[fallow temple]

what happen to conquest matchmaking failed all the time

[upbeat sand]

No genshit has their own launcher (needs mandatory admin permissions) as in the type of admin where your forced to no matter what with the shield admin needed

It looked sketchy as fuck

[next onyx]

13 scoped kills.
All coming from irons sights.
What?

[upbeat sand]

skill issue

[cobalt flower]

i like the ak and m5

[upbeat sand]

For me all of em but the m5 is my main

Lol my problem with genshin is the same as my problem with valorant.
If i wanted to play WoW i would play wow. If i wanted to play zelda i would play zelda. I dont wanna play some chinese baby of the two that steals my data

[upbeat sand]

Never trust the ccp

[gaunt swift]

Sub zelda and wow for csgo and overwatch for valorant

[upbeat sand]

Difference is valor is actually pretty good while genshit is for child groomers

[cobalt flower]

voice chat was a mistake

a guy is going off on his friend who's next to him lmao

[grizzled whale]

i really dont understand why people are complaining about voip now

WHAT DID YOU EXPECT WOULD HAPPEN

[gaunt urchin]

fr

[cobalt flower]

oh he's baked as fuck

[grizzled whale]

those are the best people

[gaunt urchin]

who me?

[grizzled whale]

baked gamers, you can have endless conversations with them

[gaunt urchin]

i get quiet when i smoke most of the time unless im on my ADD meds

[cobalt flower]

It's the funniest shit

[gaunt swift]

Aight hannibal......

[grizzled whale]

whats hannibal gotta do with this

[cobalt flower]

Hoping my plug can hook me up tonight

[gaunt swift]

Nothing nvm

[vocal parcel]

Hey is anyone having problems getting into a game on console. I tried yesterday after the update for a hour and a half but kept on putting me onto a waiting for more players screen. I redownloaded the game today and still the same thing

[gaunt swift]

Super illegal chats. Such a good thing Discord doesn't sell our data to the fbi.

[grizzled whale]

what region are you in @vocal parcel

[vocal parcel]

I'm in the UK

[gaunt urchin]

bruh lol

[real linden]

how is that game mode hazard zone working out for Dice?

[gaunt urchin]

L mode

[grizzled whale]

oh shit we actually peaked again

[cobalt flower]

Let's go

[safe cloak]

lol

[gaunt swift]

Maybe theres not enough players on console lol

[grizzled whale]

3600 players now

well, 3600 peak, 3300 online

im curious how high it will go in the weekend

[gaunt swift]

We are getting excited by 4 figures. Tells you how much this game bombed. They should have just pushed by like 3-4 months imho. Ea did this to Battlefield they only have themselves to blame

[real linden]

👍

[grizzled whale]

oh i know

[reef scarab]

hi, looking for answer.

[grizzled whale]

but its good to see the number go up

[gaunt swift]

Go on my friend

[grizzled whale]

its not much, but its a step in the right direction

[reef scarab]

since a while a strange black square appears on the left side of my screen when i play BF 2042

if i take a SS its gonne

[grizzled whale]

it doesnt appear on screenshots?

[reef scarab]

i took a pic with a phone but i cant post it

[grizzled whale]

dm it to me

[reef scarab]

ye doesnt yes

[cobalt flower]

🙏 how high is it gonna go today

[gaunt swift]

I dont hate ea for doing it. I dont blame em, i would have done the same if i was the execs. It just sucks that the gaming climate has become so bad that you cannot keep pushing a game until its ready unless you have something like microsoft money behind you

[grizzled whale]

i despise EA for doing it

[arctic grove]

def reinstalling the game now because of this patch

pathetic ass patch haha

[grizzled whale]

when your devs beg you for more time you give it to them, especially on a huge franchise

[grizzled whale]

435 patches, and even more ghost patches, far from pathetic

[safe cloak]

yes

[wintry jasper]

still a poor game

[zenith turret]

💀

[gaunt swift]

Dont.
Its businessmen doing business. Its a corporation doing the one thing it Exists to do. You cannot infinitely keep on pushing a game unless you have huge capital behind you. And if you dont and you still do it. Investors are gonna pull out, and you will have even less capital than you did. Old men with money dont care about games. They want maximum profits. And a company needs to cater to its owners. Thats just the truth

[honest herald]

portal mode is nice

[arctic grove]

I still play bf3

2042 is still good fun tbh

[zenith turret]

I still play V

[honest herald]

the weapons in bf5 had a better and more realistic feeling. but 2042 is fun

[grizzled whale]

they know as well as everyone else that releasing the game in the state they did cost them A LOT of profit.
Thousands if not millions of refunds, 40% sale a month after launch, and very few people are gonna buy the game now

[gaunt swift]

BfV is a net better game imo

[honest herald]

bfv was more fun. you could destroy everything. the sounds, the graphic

[safe cloak]

agree

[zenith turret]

The Glitches in BF V

They were fun

[grizzled whale]

in my opinion, 2042 is the best BF ive played

[willow sky]

bf1 for me has been the best one in terms of all out warfare

[safe cloak]

is it the only one?

[grizzled whale]

Nope

Ive played BC2, 3, 4, hardline, and play4free

probably 3000 hours combined
