💀💀💀💀💀

Welp we have all the proof we need, my guys capping

[subtle iron]

why tf is that from drug dealer simulator

[fervent grotto]

Why not?

[clear quail]

What I meant was, even though the fixes that the community wanted with respect to hitreg, gameplay bugs, attachments etc were implemented, people are still toxic enough to not play it. I get it, people want map fixes, content etc etc. I haven't found a single breakthrough match since Feb (in Asia) and even when the game is at a much more playable state, I still can't find breakthrough matches. I check forums and a lotta people still believe hitreg isn't fixed even though it is. There is Dice to blame for this mess-up 100%. But there's also a part of the community's fault for not coming back to the game and still holding up huge banners that say "the game is dead, no use". I hope you get my frustration. I never meant to say it's the community's fault entirely. But you get my point.

[edgy oriole]

[royal swan]

I already understand I was wrong why the necessity to continue that I need to bring proof that it's real

It's fake and I believe it. Tons of people claimed it back then and I keep that info until today

[fervent grotto]

See that makes sense. But you also can’t blame them. New bugs appear every update

[fervent grotto]

Proof of that mass belief?

[clear quail]

not game breaking bugs though

[silk surge]

I really wish they would remove AI from the game. I would rather play half full games where everyone is an actual player than having those fuckers running around.

[clear quail]

especially after patch 4.0

[edgy oriole]

he admitted to being wrong

[royal swan]

Videos and articles written before the game was even launched

[fervent grotto]

Ehh I’d say invisible characters is pretty game breaking

[fervent grotto]

Can you please show one of these said articles/vids?

[subtle iron]

they were caught in 4k

[silk surge]

I actually stumbled upon vehicle ADS bug an hour ago on Flashback Conquest. It's rare, but can still happen.

[fervent grotto]

📸📸📸📸📸

[royal swan]

No, I ain't going to try to dig up year old videos and articles that I know are false

[fervent grotto]

So what your saying is that they don’t exist?

[radiant prism]

Yeah, DICE mentioned that its still possible, just exceedingly rare

[clear quail]

the bug is rare. I have a mid pc and I get it for a few seconds when I start my first match of the day

not game breaking

[royal swan]

They do. There are some that if you search the topic yourself a few articles will show

[radiant prism]

I think I've had it once, maybe, and even then I'm not even sure. Its exceedingly rare.

Would be different if it was rampant

[fervent grotto]

Invisible people is literally game breaking. I’m on the og Xbox. Dice fixes and breaks things every update. I mean they couldn’t even get a weekly challenge I display right.

[silk surge]

I fucking love valparaiso. The gameplay flow is so perfect on Conquest.

[fervent grotto]

Show them to me since they’re so easy to find

[royal swan]

https://gamerant.com/battlefield-2042-battle-royale-game-apex-legends/

[radiant prism]

Its also exceedingly rare and known to be an issue by DICE.

[fervent grotto]

You shouldn’t have to dig it up.

[clear quail]

And calling it game breaking even though it's a rare bug proves the mentality people have.

[radiant prism]

"This leak comes from Tom Henderson, a games journalist that writes for sites like DualShockers, RealGamingIntel, and IGN. He purports that this claim comes from an employee at DICE, although he has refused to share more information in an effort to protect the anonymity of his informant."

[fervent grotto]

Good, see how easy that was?

[silk surge]

That article references something Tom Henderson has said. Most of his leaks ends up being untrue. Not reliable.

[radiant prism]

The entire source is literally just Tom Henderson. They saw one tweet by him, ignoring everything he's done wrong just because he predicted that a battlefield game did in fact exist, and decided that was an entire article's worth.

[silk surge]

Gaming journalism in a nutshell lmao

[radiant prism]

My media writing professor would be tearing his hair out over this

[royal swan]

This was before it confirmed untrue. It was hard to even know whats true and not.

[arctic grove]

So uh, new camo looks nice

[radiant prism]

ye

[arctic grove]

Very tacticool

[royal swan]

I guess

[uncut bay]

it's very meh

at least it's universal though

[elder patrol]

Morning

[radiant prism]

Glad to see more universal camos on the way

[royal swan]

But it's another white theme skin

[arctic grove]

You can’t have it too colorful or Reddit will hate it

[royal swan]

Reddit can suck it.

When can we get a darker universal skin

[uncut bay]

honestly i just want something exciting, last week's skin was nice despite not being super realistic

[royal swan]

Now that was a skin

[uncut bay]

yeah careful what you ask for, one of the next ones will just be black lol

[royal swan]

I hope

[uncut bay]

not excited for that at all, most guns are already black default

[royal swan]

The only dark skin is that ugly cobalt and the hard to get tier skin

[arctic grove]

Yea honestly that new camo looks the most exciting lol

[radiant prism]

I honestly just use the default factory skin on most guns

[edgy oriole]

ill believe the skins when i see it. along with rao head. unless they could be deep data that shows battlepass stuff

[radiant prism]

Looks best most of the time IMO

[royal swan]

The rao head is damn fine

Reminds me of the class head from older titles

[silk jasper]

Rao is my least played character

[radiant prism]

As much as people worry about skins sometimes, everything we've seen so far looks fucking fantastic

[uncut bay]

rao helmet is also meh, super uninspired. Just the assault from bf4/snow helmet for angel

[radiant prism]

Ah yes, the duality of man

[royal swan]

That's why I like it

[arctic grove]

The only camo I’ll be putting on is that tier 1 cuz it do be looking🔥🔥

[silk jasper]

need more colour variation its always white skins that we get..

[radiant prism]

Less is more if you ask me, subtle and tacticool looks best

[royal swan]

Make more skins that cover the specialist face with a helmet is good.

[silk jasper]

hope there are more 'tactical' looking skins coming out soon

[royal swan]

No more cringe ass facial expressions

[uncut bay]

this i can agree with

i was kind of excited for the new mackay skin because the visor looked opaque, but in game it's transparent

[radiant prism]

It got updated in this last update, its heavily tinted now

[cyan trout]

There are skins in this game?

[uncut bay]

i saw it like 5 games ago and it was still very transparent, if there was a change it was far too little imo

[royal swan]

They need to fix dozer. Best specialist, no cringy cringe voice lines or facial expressions

Best looking skins too

[radiant prism]

Say what you will...they still be drippin

Ooh I've got Dozer too

spam for like the second time today

[clear quail]

That Mackay skin combo is one of the top combos in the game tbh

fits the theme

[royal swan]

Mackay has great skins

[radiant prism]

Yeah, tier 4 with outdoorsman looks great. Gives off a mercenary/contractor vibe

[arctic grove]

We need more generic soldiers tbh

[radiant prism]

All the Tier 4 skins look great, fit that exactly

[arctic grove]

i hate specialists

[uncut bay]

i wish they'd just let us use the AI class models

[radiant prism]

I think the only person who definitely needs more "milsim" skins right now is Sundance

[uncut bay]

they're there, they're made, just give them to us

[analog radish]

Dice bring back classes! We hate specialists!

[clear quail]

there's gonna be a fix on em anyhow after the corefeedback

[silk jasper]

This is so cool

[royal swan]

Glad they are being reworked to feel more like classes

[radiant prism]

Nah, specialists are fun. We just need more skins

[uncut bay]

tell me about it. The skydiver has one skin with a helmet and it's the hardest one to get

[radiant prism]

I do like classes, but I'm having fun with the specialists

[royal swan]

You are lucky this ain't reddit

[silk jasper]

Dozer only cool looking skin

[royal swan]

That's what I been saying

[arctic grove]

As long as they cover their faces and completely mute the cringy voicelines, then its the only way they can make the game better.

[tame pasture]

will ExitLag ban you from BF2042

or any bf game

[clear quail]

voiceline changes are confimed by devs. I don't think they're gonna cover their faces.

[arctic grove]

He can always go on lowsodiumbattlefield2042

[grizzled whale]

what even is that

[radiant prism]

I still don't get how people get so worked up over the voicelines. Like I get how they're cringe, but man how does it make people legitimately mald

[silk jasper]

Where?

[edgy oriole]

idk what that is, but i doubt it

[radiant prism]

I don't think they need to cover their faces tbh, they look generic enough

[clear quail]

It was confirmed by one of the devs in official forum

[tame pasture]

it basically gets rid of lag for you while in game

[grizzled whale]

source

[uncut bay]

the cringe overload is too much. Hearing them is like salt in wounds

[arctic grove]

They only changing them. Not removing them

[grizzled whale]

thats a scam lol

[radiant prism]

you must have a really low threshold then lmao

[tame pasture]

its real look it up

[silk jasper]

Now that is one change i am DEFINITELY looking forward to

[grizzled whale]

Lag is decided by your internet and server connection, no program can change that

[uncut bay]

it's supposedly helpful if you're in buttfuck nowhere and need to be in eu or na servers

basically a vpn

[grizzled whale]

but a VPN isnt gona get rid of lag

[uncut bay]

yep

who cares, people will have their placebos

[grizzled whale]

if your connection is shit or the servers are shit, you get lag.
A random program which is most likely a cryptominer isnt gonna change that

[clear quail]

took me a while to find a pic but imma send it to u in dm so u can post it here

[grizzled whale]

well damn

[raw spoke]

is there a date to when the next update would release?

[clear quail]

mid may maybe

[radiant prism]

May yeah, which isn't too far away now

[grizzled whale]

No date, but given this months update, id say around may 15-20

[royal swan]

Probably may

[hard plume]

Some say, its less than a month away

[edgy oriole]

i just want to be able to skip them so i can get into the next game faster. *as in me personally able to leave at endscreen since the lobby dies anyways

[raw spoke]

i see, i already missed the weekly mission since its hard to find an official lobby even in both gamemodes 64 and 124

[royal swan]

For the major update that's on season 1 release

[grizzled whale]

But if you skip them you might miss out on "ANGEL DOES IT AGAIN"

[clear quail]

conquest 128 is your only option

[solid imp]

I will be so sad if Angel never does it again 😦

[royal swan]

I will miss that

[hard plume]

Mark my words, we’re all gonna moss it when it’s gone

[uncut bay]

would be cool if they let us adjust the quip volume, wouldn't even need a rework that way

[grizzled whale]

Dont worry friend, Angel will ALWAYS do it again, because thats just how it works out some times

[radiant prism]

They should keep the current lines, just add more so that its not the same 3 lines

[solid imp]

But in the age of mtx I'm really surprised that they didn't record a boatload of EOR lines and you could unlock or purchase, customize your "flair"

[uncut bay]

i'm sure they planned to but had other priorities considering the state of the game

i'd bet money they're coming with S1

[grizzled whale]

give me an "angel voiceline pack" Mtx, just his voice for any character, and ill gladly pay

[solid imp]

I really would, too hahaha

I wonder what that voice actor is doing these days, and I sincerely hope he looks just like Angel himself

[grizzled whale]

Imagine mackay with angels voice and voicelines, that would literally be a threat to the multiverse

[hard plume]

I just hope he and the other voice actors aren’t being harassed

[royal swan]

Have y'all gotten the secret reload not bug 100% legit

[solid imp]

I want him to narrate my autobiography someday

[grizzled whale]

lol you think its a bug?

[royal swan]

I think it's a nod to the bugs

[grizzled whale]

what bug

[royal swan]

Bugs (I edited)

[grizzled whale]

what bugs

[tiny imp]

BF 2042 voiceliners are horrible. Sounds like a children

[grizzled whale]

"a children"

[solid imp]

no, I want angel's voice actor to speak at my funeral someday

[raw spoke]

its a bit fps drop for me if i do play 128

[solid imp]

this is just how it works out sometimes

[radiant prism]

Nah its a pretty bog-standard BFEE reload

[raw spoke]

and there are people leaving so the lobby wont start but instead i find almost finished matches

[grizzled whale]

Dont be sad, this is just how he wanted it to work out some time 🙏

[solid imp]

exactly

[raw spoke]

you cant progress in portal right?

[grizzled whale]

only if you dont touch the rules editor

[raw spoke]

i see

[raw spoke]

thanks! i didnt know this

[little dust]

if it's an official experience like 2042 rush you can

[silk surge]

Damn, one of the cast members of BFF has brain cancer 😦

[fervent grotto]

WHAT

[silk surge]

The guy playing recon

[fervent grotto]

NO

[uncut bay]

damn

fucked up world

[solid imp]

that has me a bit depressed ngl

[dapper river]

works on my machine

[grand cosmos]

Goodmorning to all?

[dapper river]

they haven't fuckin added this to the actual UI of the portal editor or the server browser (as far as I know), why can't they just mark stuff with a special icon that says "hey, you can't earn XP/mastery if you fuck with these settings"?

[hollow verge]

where is the weekly mission?

[radiant prism]

Seems to be bugged again, but progression should still track.

[dapper river]

white kek

enemies killed in rush

rush servers are ded bru

[nova barn]

opening map while flying a jet for the first time crashes the game and steam happened twice now bruh

[dapper river]

a fitting punishment for jet players

[nova barn]

Far more useful playing jet

actually take down enemy tanks/aa and their transports/attacks lol

[hollow verge]

[dapper river]

at a rate of about 1 vehicle kill every 6 minutes
oh sorry, you might even get TWO kills on LATV-4 Recons within 6 minutes! Whoooooa ur poppin off bruh

[nova barn]

Haha youre delusional

[dapper river]

you didn't beat the game

[nova barn]

what?

who drives latvs anyways besides from the very start.

[solid imp]

latv with a 50mm is death to choppers at any time of the round

[nova barn]

Nah I tried the theory

The 50mm on latvs is horrible

[solid imp]

were you hitting the helicopters? 🙂

a little bird goes down like 25% or 35% health with a single shot

[nova barn]

Thats exactly why its horrible though, the velocity is bad.

[solid imp]

well yeah otherwise it would be trivially easy to shoot things down

[nova barn]

Im pretty sure it doesnt go down in 3, and if your enemy in the littlebird isnt stupid in the head he will just insta disperse.

[solid imp]

and since latv is a transport vehicle they're all over the place so helicopters would become less than useless

[nova barn]

I dont see it as worth it to spend the 2 minute timer to spawn a latv

even bolte with barrage, tow is better anti air.

[solid imp]

ok I mean to each their own

that's what makes bf great right? there's a thing for everyone

go do bolte then if you don't want latv 🙂

[nova barn]

Yeah everyone has M5s thats great lol

[nova barn]

Both have all attachments so I dont use them as the tier 1 looks equally bad on both

what if they're telling us something

[sacred depot]

only texture the 2 people working on 2042 have to use

[bleak nebula]

#addanimeskins

[edgy oriole]

we need more of these. woodland and desert. maybe some german camo color ways

[uncut bay]

ok that's it i'm reporting you to the subreddit

[bleak nebula]

Oh no, not reddit

[edgy oriole]

give this

some pink and purple digital maybe. anything digital.

[olive lake]

I don't suppose we have any clue to when the next update or hotfix is happening do we?

[edgy oriole]

i couldnt even guess what the next big update will be. hotfix would be to fix bugs from this update.

[uncut bay]

we can assume S1 will be mid-late june, which is quite a ways away, maybe one more update before that?

[queen hamlet]

We need more maps to bf2042 maybe get interesting...

[uncut bay]

yep, we'll be getting at least one in season 1

[silk surge]

Never gets old lmao

[hardy leaf]

early summer

[clear quail]

may lmao

[hardy leaf]

not may im sure

[clear quail]

how sure are ya

[hardy leaf]

100%

the season 1 update wont be in may,

[clear quail]

sir

season 1 update is in June

[hardy leaf]

you sure?

[clear quail]

but there's gonna be an update in may

[hardy leaf]

season 1 update may not even be in June

[clear quail]

yes

[bold steppe]

whats in that update?

[clear quail]

but may update is a sure one

[clear quail]

more fixes

[bold steppe]

we need more content updates

so players will comeback and we can have faster matchmaking

[hardy leaf]

and there was a matchmaking bug, did they fix that?

[clear quail]

The only content update is Season 1 which might happen end of june or start-mid july. Before that they gotta put out fixes so the game is much more enjoyable during season 1. Specialist fixes and map fixes are priorities now.

[clear quail]

which bug?

[slate meadow]

Must admit the amount of ai in the game is really disheartening

[clear quail]

ye, the game is more playable now so hopefully people comeback. I mean, there's already an increase in the avg playerbase, so that's good

[slate meadow]

Just fell like the team play is non existent in the game aswell

Feel*

[clear quail]

cuz of lack of players

[hot bronze]

Weekly mission is bugged for me. I see it and have finished the first 2 but kills in rush isnt.

[white dagger]

I can’t see the weeklys on the side. Is it the same problem as last week?

[steep jewel]

Is there still another update planned for the next few months?

[slate meadow]

The purple sniper one?

[hot bronze]

@slate meadow no the new one

[slate meadow]

Is there a new one?

[hot bronze]

@slate meadowcheck Direct-Communications

[pliant crown]

Is VOIP broken already?

[arctic grove]

I think 2042 has a thing for Breakaway

[arctic grove]

Temporyal says the earliest date to expect it is like around June 18th

all speculation until we get word from DICE

[eternal storm]

thats crazy

[arctic grove]

Then again temporyal is a data miner, so

[hot bronze]

he data mined this weeks weapon skin lol

[frosty mural]

They said a May update

[arctic grove]

Teamplay never existed in battlefield, you were at the complete mercy of people who wanted to actually be a team player. A lot of medics and supports usually played for themselves

[frosty mural]

Yeah, Exposure will have snowy elements lol

[hot bronze]

Temporyal is refering to season one not the next update

there should be at least a small one next month

[frosty mural]

yeah, May they mentioned it...

[arctic grove]

May has another update like the one we got a couple or so weeks ago, do you guys check #direct-communication ?

There is an update every month typically

[hot bronze]

yes thats why i said next month we should have another one

[frosty mural]

Our next update following this one is presently scheduled to release in May, and is focused on bringing further quality of life updates and bug fixes. We’ll have more to tell you about the contents of that update closer to its release.

[edgy oriole]

if they including it in an update instead of a hotfix that means the was a big whoopsie in the code im assuming

[arctic grove]

The only reason I ask is cause there seems to be confusion on if May has an update when the 4.0 patch notes confirmed one in may yet again

[frosty mural]

They will either do 1 of 2 things, use May to hotfix patch certain bugs like the audio intros, etc or will delay it to do a major update like 4.0 in June along with potential for S1

[edgy oriole]

there has been an update every month so we are safe to assume there will be a may update.

[clear quail]

people seem to be confused with the may update being season 1 or somethin

[arctic grove]

I'd be fine with it being delayed for an update of similar proportion to 4.0

[clear quail]

may is hotfix update

[frosty mural]

same.

[edgy oriole]

hopefully may update will be matchmaking/network maintenance.

[hot bronze]

@arctic grove correct, I was saying that Temporyals June date is referring to season one. but we will se smaller updates almost every month. they already confirmed may

[arctic grove]

Im excited for this weeks skin tbh. Another winter skin

[frosty mural]

actually matchmaking improved drastically for me, i finally get into vareity of maps on AOW 128p before i used to go onto hourglass 4 games in a row

[arctic grove]

Ye I know, was referring mainly to some guys earlier up in the chat

I honestly just want the boris helmet from this, https://twitter.com/temporyal/status/1501545747476529155?cxt=HHwWhoCyxdv5x9YpAAAA

And Rao helmet from this, https://twitter.com/temporyal/status/1519285230938382336?cxt=HHwWgICj6cb3ypUqAAAA

Although that universal blackout vehicle camo will be good too

[edgy oriole]

guess which side i usually get when i play hourglass.

[arctic grove]

69

[frosty mural]

RU of course

[edgy oriole]

whatever defense is bc i dont pay attention

[hot bronze]

you got that right they look good. im also guessing we will se a snow theme in the new maps of season one as we are seeing alot of cosmetics for it. plus all the data mined stuff

[arctic grove]

US tends to perform worst on defense because the SU-57 alone stomps the F-35 half of the time and without jets the enemy team has the ability to kill all of your armored vehicles in like 2 passes with AGMs, then stalk your helis and transports

breakthrough really needs to be adjusted, maybe with just very little if not no vehicles except light transport ones that are relatively easy to counter as well

i wouldnt mind more snow maps, with how many skins for them being in game i think youre right, we'll have to see though

[edgy oriole]

add new jets to both sides for counter purposes

[arctic grove]

i thought about this earlier but i think MAV should be moved into the transport category, reduces the likelihood that the attacking team has 2-3 of the condour/super hind constantly dropping squads onto your objectives, and any attempt to defend that said objective is literally useless because your vehicles get evaporated by the 50mm in a handful of shots and then its pain incarnate when youre in the 50mms crosshairs yourself

or hell just give both sides the same amount of vehicles, idk why defending team has zero attack vehicles in the beginning stages of a match

[eternal storm]

i want to coordinate a 16vs16 rush game with all my team playing boris on defense

[hot bronze]

a combination of Boris and Irish would probably be better

[arctic grove]

i meant breakthrough mode

[frosty mural]

i think they need to put MAV and Condor/Hind as transport
Put LATV, Hover as transport II
Attack Chopper Jet and Nightbird as attack
Bolte Tank AA as Attack

[arctic grove]

the bolte is such a pain in the behind and doesnt really work well deciding if it should be in a role where its lesser likely to be used (such as armored) since it isnt really armored, but in light vehicles its allowed to exist in way too many quantities (ive had games where theres 3-4 of them at a time, and its worst if youre playing breakthrough up against that odd)

[frosty mural]

I played a game last night where there were 2 boltes with missle launchers just sitting on the Dune between A and C overlooking B firing at condors

in addition to the lockons from jets, AAs and handheld AAs

[arctic grove]

yeah if i was up against that im ngl i'd probably delete the game

i think the bolte could work in armored though since this is just what i personally think; the chances of seeing a nightbird is hit or miss now, since you'd might as well take an apache/super hokum for the extra firepower rather than the nightbird, plus more HP, and i think that would reciprocate the same way for the bolte in armored category, for what your choices are in armored youd might as well take a wildcat/mbt

[lyric snow]

opinion on new weekly mission?

[arctic grove]

i just want the datamined rao and boris helmet

[arctic grove]

more tacticool cosmetics

i beg of dice

[hard plume]

Aww they’re so cute, learning about the 50mm the hard way

[eternal storm]

i wish we have 5vs5 maps search and destroy, bf gunplay is way better than cod's

[drowsy sapphire]

Bolte is nice

[hard plume]

Make one

[eternal storm]

dude, i can barely work a calculator

[hard plume]

You can make anything in portal

[arctic grove]

50mm does tend to be a pain in the ass though

although transports can do absolutely nothing if you drop down directly above them

[eternal storm]

judging by the lack of people playing portal, combined with 'zombies' game modes, i doubt that

[arctic grove]

i mean theres a decent amount of people on portal, at least last time i checked, a lot of servers werent completely full though

and i checked last like this week or something

[eternal storm]

since ive bought this game theres only ever a total of 2 servers full, and the rest consist of 6/128 or 2/32 people in them

[signal trout]

yo is the snniper skin weekly gone now

[arctic grove]

it does tend to differentiate depending on your region as well

[eternal storm]

well, Im in central US soooo

[radiant prism]

Yeah, its a universal camo now

[signal trout]

what dogshit

[arctic grove]

okay

ill check in a minute

[radiant prism]

Are you using crossplay?

[eternal storm]

of course

[arctic grove]

sicne i am in the US midwest

[radiant prism]

I was just playing from NA East just now and was getting full lobbies

[signal trout]

shame they didnt fix it yet, or get rid of weekly missions, or atleast make them monthly or appar per 2 weeks, cuz this shit absurd

[radiant prism]

What do you mean?

[arctic grove]

fix what yet lol

[uncut bay]

you want them to give us less content?

[eternal storm]

im talking about portal custom modes, not portal official modes

[radiant prism]

Ohhhh. Gotcha

[eternal storm]

portal official modes are good, just wish they kept them live

[arctic grove]

most people just play aow more

[signal trout]

weekly missions keep you returning to the game, and keep you paranoid, you got a week to complete something before it dissapears, sometimes good things actually are part of hte drops, and this time it even broke to the point where it doesnt show them anymore, boring as hell objectives, pain to keep track off and pain to maintain, shouldhave atleast make them monthly or add another week

[radiant prism]

I mean I played rush for 10 minutes to get the weekly done lol

[arctic grove]

portal for when youre in a silly goofy mood

[eternal storm]

32vs32 conquest was good, and 16vs16 2042 rush

[uncut bay]

the weeklies are stupid easy, if anything they should give us more or make them harder

[radiant prism]

Its not that hard to literally just check the direct communications. DICE is aware of the issue and has stated numerous times that the challenges should still track

[signal trout]

that doesnt fix the rest of the problems does it

[forest snow]

i want the skin for Rao that is the main artwork

[arctic grove]

yes the rest of the problems are your own personal problems with it

"boring as hell objectives" dunno what to tell you about that bro

[signal trout]

christ, have you even played the game?

[arctic grove]

yes 100 hrs since November 12th bud

[edgy oriole]

i dont even know what battlefield is

[signal trout]

november? tuff

[full jetty]

Whats the weekly?

[signal trout]

nothing worth anyones attention

[edgy oriole]

white with purple spot gun skin. i think.

[frosty mural]

well, when was the last time it was up? It is a weekly..

[clear quail]

blue spots

[arctic grove]

maybe dont falsely assume things about someone you dont know

[signal trout]

i dunno, 15 hours ago?

[radiant prism]

I have 150 hours since March 8th

[little dust]

#direct-communication

[arctic grove]

in us midwest i think they change every tuesday at either 10 or 12 PM-AM now (10 pm at night, 12 am morning)

[signal trout]

i got around 200 since early playtests

+20 hours in said playtest

[edgy oriole]

oh its universal no way.

thats actually omega pog.

[radiant prism]

Lemme actually check my total playtime since launch

[mental delta]

There are some guys talking about microtransactions lol wtf is that ?

[arctic grove]

i dont really understand non-universal gun skins

[edgy oriole]

thats what im saying. let the skins be free

[worn whale]

with MW2 just being tweeted and the teaser alone makes me so hype

[radiant prism]

Ok just shy of 300 hours total according to my stats page

[edgy oriole]

imma put this skin on pkp

[worn whale]

I almost feel bad for 2042

[arctic grove]

mw2 tweets?

tiem to go see this

[mental delta]

[signal trout]

or add a points system that gives you like 100 per successful game and 50 per defeat, and make like skins cost 10 to 30 and the more unique ones cost like 90 or 150

something similar to uhh, bf4 weapon unlocks maybe

not sure

[arctic grove]

boins are coming back soon p sure

its been data mined by temporyal

[signal trout]

ah yes the very evil temporyal that all of us are supposed to hate and despise cuz he smells

wonder when said weapon pickups are going to be back

or weapon emplacements
or anti air stations at HQ spawns

[arctic grove]

idk what you mean by that cuz he just data mines stuff in the 2042 current build

[keen swift]

MW2 revealed

RIP BATTLEFIELD

[signal trout]

i thought modern warfare 2 was a thing in 2015 or some shit already

[arctic grove]

nah bf has to bounce back from that lmao

ngl i like 2042 but, im trying to see what mw2 is about

[edgy oriole]

remake

[signal trout]

all these titles fucking identical

[uncut bay]

yeah honestly if MW2 does as well as MW2019 battlefield is absolutely over this time round

[radiant prism]

I remember when people said the exact same thing for 2019 lmao

[uncut bay]

good luck to them

[arctic grove]

well it depends on when the game releases

[keen swift]

And they were right

[edgy oriole]

it should. id be mad surprised if they messed up mw22

[arctic grove]

im pretty sure mw2 will release around fall 2022?

[keen swift]

2042 sucked ass 💀

[arctic grove]

so in that case s1 will have already been going on for like a while

[signal trout]

hey did they remove ruskies already cuz wah war

[edgy oriole]

imma be playing mw22 but i can only stand cod for a lil til im bored.

[uncut bay]

it's a remake, dice should take notes

[signal trout]

they should let visceral do a bf game again

[arctic grove]

ill play until someone flies around the corner with the fastest rpm gun in the game and melts me

[edgy oriole]

so a game

[uncut bay]

i can't wait, haven't played cod since mw2019

[arctic grove]

i have cold war but barely touch it because of the damn games size

[edgy oriole]

i got vanguard but only play it when im bored of 2042 and overwatch. which means i havent been playing it much at all.

[arctic grove]

and activision only lets you change what email an account is binded to once a year

i accidentally binded my activision to my spare account with no ps plus

[raw helm]

I think 2042 has a total of 1k people playing from a image I saw earlier from steam charts

[little dust]

cod hasn't been good since the original mw2/blops zombies

[eternal storm]

nah, itll be like 4-5 total including console

[raw helm]

A Roblox game is bigger than 2042

[arctic grove]

thats what everyone says but im ngl

advanced and infinite warfare were good

but i never played ghosts, ww2, blops4, so idk about those

mw3 was good too

[raw helm]

Black ops 4 zombies fucking sucks don’t buy it if you just want the zombies

[arctic grove]

cods power is in campaigns though honestly

[edgy oriole]

last good cod was WaW

[arctic grove]

waw is pretty darn good

[eternal storm]

2019 was excellent

[arctic grove]

adopt me playercount

[eternal storm]

people talk shit about cod, but at least they pump out content like a machine

[uncut bay]

yeah i liked a lot of the disliked cods, infinite warfare was my favorite campaign to date. I also really enjoyed advanced warfare and ww2

[raw helm]

2012-2019 games
2020-2022 games

[arctic grove]

infinite warfares replayability came in clutch in 2016 when i would sometimes have no internet or ps plus to play online

[eternal storm]

1998-2002 games

[arctic grove]

like triple A title releases in 2012-2019 in general? cause there was a whole lot of disasterous games that came out in that timespan too

[raw helm]

yeah those happened, but the general feel of games back then felt good, modern days it’s kind of different in a bad way

[uncut bay]

lootboxes were where it started to go downhill imo

[arctic grove]

wellll to be fair 2012-2019 is 8 yr timespan and 2020-22 is a 2 year timespan so

[uncut bay]

though there are still most definitely good games coming out

[eternal storm]

yup, but thats everyones fault for paying for that shit. if people never bought them theyd never sell em

[arctic grove]

and lootboxes were prevalent during the 2012-19 timespan

on the bright side theyre effectively deceased now because if any game has them

byebye

[raw helm]

Back then I didn’t see a whole lot of bugs

[arctic grove]

check out crowbcats channel

[raw helm]

And I didn’t see any bad stuff happen really, was a kid back then

Mostly been playing battlefield 1943

Or 1942 not sure

[arctic grove]

u should check out crowbcats youtube channel then

i agree with you that gradually franchises degrade anyways, like some games from 10+ yrs ago had more attention to detail and passion than some titles today, but there wasnt really anything spectacular from 2012-2019 but i dont mean to debate you about it

the reason i told you to look at crowbcats channel is cuz they made a ton of videos about games around that time that were

nightmares at launch

[eternal storm]

games also cost alot more than 20 years ago to make. they also dont want to make 20million profit, they want 100million profit so cutting corners where they can

[arctic grove]

makes sense, it eventually becomes about the thing that runs the world

monys

[arctic grove]

for example

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FCeEvQ68jY8

[eternal storm]

yup they dumbed games down big stylew

i still have nightmares of hours of losing progress on tomb raider 2 trying to figure out what ledges i could jump to without dying lol

nowadays theres fall protection in games and big glowing arrows telling you how to get to an obj

[onyx plover]

I love how the EA launcher I have "keep me signed in" checked yet I have to keep entering my log in every time

[lofty nymph]

when do we get new content

[uncut bay]

june

probably

[silk jasper]

bro when will they fix the weekly skin visibility issue, every time there is a bug they say "we plan to resolve this in the next game update" when??? Why not just fix it right away with a hotfix like a live service game is supposed to? I'm sick and tired of the slow response

[eternal storm]

dont be sad, thats just how it works out sometimes

[silk jasper]

"We plan to resolve this in the next game update."
"We'll address this in a future update"
"We'll re-activate this attachment in a future update"

[cyan trout]

It's a Beta but EA's definition of beta is different than other publishers lol

[eternal storm]

"you can buy the game but you beta not expect it to be finished 6 months after release"

[arctic grove]

facts

[eternal storm]

gunplay feels good now, game feels in a better state, but if June's update doesnt bring GOOD content and game modes then ill be done with this release to be honest sadly

[tropic mantle]

is this week's missions bugged? ive managed to fulfill all the criteria in #direct-communication but there's no progress on any of them

[onyx plover]

🤣

[soft swallow]

You can't see progress but you can still play it, I don't see my progress too but I finish it

[soft swallow]

I never find that veichles :c

[silk surge]

Depends on the map of course. But in Rush, they usually spawn after a sector is taken.

[soft swallow]

I have to say that 2042 Rush it's pretty cool and I think that it should switch from Portal to AOW

[edgy oriole]

i think they should add frontline

[silk surge]

Yeah, I kinda missed the 16v16 format in Battlefield. Somehow just as chaotic as 128p lmao

[soft swallow]

Well maps where smaller, big maps more players

[silk surge]

But I think PORTAL was a perfect addition to Battlefield, that way they can cycle through different gamemodes regurally. And also feature community made gamemodes.

[soft swallow]

Agree

[silk surge]

What I really want to return is Rush Chaos. That mode was legendary.

Semi-hardcore 32v32 rush

I got constant 80 kill games in that mode because of how insanely fast-paced it was.

[soft swallow]

Why Dice kill it?

[silk surge]

It was a friday night Battlefield PORTAL mode. Hopefully it returns tomorrow 🤞

Those only lasts 24 hours

[soft swallow]

Well FNB usually it's always pretty funny to play

[silk surge]

yeah

[bleak nebula]

fnb is great

last week was intense

[soft swallow]

Oh the last FNB was so cool

[tropic mantle]

i finished it, none of the weekly missions have progressed when i checked the camo

as in 0/3

[soft swallow]

Strange

[tropic mantle]

it'll probably sort itself out by tomorrow

[soft swallow]

I don't want discussions, but I really want to say that after 4.0 update I'm really enjoying the game and I'm really excited to see how it will be the next update (5.0 not an hotfix)

[tropic mantle]

so far its been nice

i really enjoy the lack of stutters on my low-end system

there used to be this bad case of stutters when you get shot, which made close range gunfights near impossible

[gray comet]

If one thing hasnt changed between BF4 and BF2042, it’s that the ATGM targeting is still just as jank

[soft swallow]

Well...

[tropic mantle]

frankly its unintentional but im glad, the mid-game rocket spam as a jet pilot is infuriating

[soft swallow]

I opened the map and the gamw crashed : I

[tropic mantle]

oh yeah that happened to me yesterday

[soft swallow]

Very sad 'cause the map it's very usefull

[tropic mantle]

it is

im half-convinced itll be addressed in a hotfix or a smaller update (like 4.1, a hypothetical update name similar to update 3.1)

[soft swallow]

Yes

[full jetty]

So is the weekly not tracking for anyone else

Do i get progress regardless?

[still vault]

Latest post in #direct-communication is for you 🙂

[solid imp]

lol someone earlier in here was saying latv isn't worth spawning... I think my team disagrees with that sentiment

[hard plume]

That’s a brave little tank going to B1 by itself

[silk surge]

I found a new hidden feature from 4.0. Angel sometimes references the names of the specialists that he revives. He said "You're not going to die on me, Sundance!" in my last game. That's pretty cool.

[solid imp]

as if I needed another excuse to play angel.. much apreesh 🙂

[fiery shoal]

i still think the coolest thing like that is counting headshots in bfv

[edgy oriole]

my brain doesnt register anyone talking ever bc im focused on gaming. so when some type of voice line comes in im always surprised.

[silk surge]

I'm the opposite, I have the entire opening deployment monologue memorized for every map.

[edgy oriole]

the only one i know is "angel does it again" bc people put it in this chat every day. i couldnt say/name anything else. lol

[silk surge]

We're shipping you to Doha, Qatar! Extreme conditions has caused a mass-evacuation. Reports states that russian troops have moved through. You need to secure the border and prevent a russian occupation. We'll update you once you're on the ground. Command out.

[heavy linden]

bruh nasa pc

I have 3080ti and barely get 100

[silk surge]

PS5 🙂

The game runs smooth as butter on PS5, we don't have the performance issues that plagues the PC crowd.

[heavy linden]

oh ok lol

[fiery shoal]

i dont think pc performance is bad, it just doesnt scale for shit with good hardware

[heavy linden]

am I the only one who cant find the rush gamemode lmao

[fiery shoal]

you can get 60 fps with a 9400 and 1060 6gb

but a 3080 and 12900k gets like 120 fps, which isnt "linear" performance increases that people expect between those 2 configs

[lone current]

Hi!

[silk surge]

yoo

[edgy oriole]

could it be since its a brand new engine thats why some performances arent too great? (idk anything about video game tech)

[lone current]

hey enjoyer

[heavy linden]

dev?

[silk surge]

You guys are planning on adding a map called 'Operation Metro 2042' right?

[bleak nebula]

metro 😂

[edgy oriole]

Classified

[silk surge]

Come on, we're all friends here, you can tell us!

[edgy oriole]

[bleak nebula]

and then you get posted on reddit

[heavy linden]

just like he came he left

[silk surge]

His silence confirms it to me. Operation Metro 2042 will launch this summer.

[heavy linden]

I dont see any downside on giving us inside information because we gonna give people hope that this game is gonna be better

[silk surge]

He's silent because he's thinking "oh fuck how did he know"

[edgy oriole]

he will get fired = his downside.

[heavy linden]

there are always dms

[silk surge]

Yeah, jokes aside... Devs are under very strict NDA.

They have to get explicit permission in order to reveal things.

[heavy linden]

no need to get too political

its just a couple of friends discussing about future updates of the game

pinky promise we wont reveal anything

😉

[lone current]

Yes

[heavy linden]

oh no a vampire😟 😨

[lone current]

I am around

[solar nymph]

What aspect of game do you work on?

[lone current]

Game stability (crashes etc)

[solar nymph]

Cool

[heavy linden]

what else is there?

[solar nymph]

What about performance?

[heavy linden]

yes what about performance, I have a few requests to make based on that topic

[ripe hedge]

Yo what's your favorite tank??

[solar nymph]

There is only like 2 lol, not much of a choice

[ripe hedge]

No no he is playing world of Tanks

[solar nymph]

Oh

[heavy linden]

you guys dont work together?

carbonic I am not in the mood to read an essay

[ripe hedge]

Maybe? I don't know his alias so he could be anyone 👀

[still vault]

If you know any workarounds to the dreaded bug making EAC crash games like 2042 with a 0xC0000022 error let me know sometime 😄

[still vault]

People really can't handle when I take a break writing mid sentence 😄

[lone current]

DM some details

[lone current]

MR Alex, I have many favorite tanks

[lone current]

What's up?

[craggy marten]

You will be added to 2042.

Now suffer with the other 127 specialists. 👹

[lone current]

@ripe hedge accept my friend request

[next isle]

Real Cryphisss?

[heavy linden]

yeah I feel kind of scammed for my money because I have spent thousands on building my pc and I still don't manage to get my expectations

[fiery shoal]

https://tenor.com/view/face-palm-no-nope-cant-frustrated-gif-8484257

[brittle forge]

Cryphiss, I’m not the guy who asked that responded, but I do have a question that may or may not be inside the performance arena: Do you have any idea if the team is adding the ability to turn Anti-Aliasing off completely?

You can do it with a config file edit apparently but both 2042 and BFV you only get to “low” for some reason

[low timber]

Cryphisss…?
You are the guy who killed me and I killed you in Renewal Breakthrough in the last sector when you were running around as Paik and 12M auto.

[coral kraken]

Build bigger

[cedar turtle]

SO let me get this straight....

[craggy marten]

He never got it straight.

[lone current]

I do not have an answer about that, but I will forward that to our teams.

[brittle forge]

Thanks!

[lone current]

Cheers for the question and being nice about it!

[coral kraken]

Are we going to try and push for team based voip kinda like (squad)

and or proximity based voip?

[cedar turtle]

Yes. prox VOIP. All hail prox VOIP

[coral kraken]

Because like VoIP is cool and brings life back into the game! Which much appreciated for the work it took into it. But sometimes I’d like to communicate with nearby teammates

[edgy oriole]

judging how this community is online. i really dont want 64 edgelords screaming into their mic.

[cedar turtle]

imagine being able to hear nearby enemies too

[coral kraken]

That would be fire I mean like lol it would bring a whole new immersion

[civic mason]

This game is alot more fun when you play it like a dumbass

[coral kraken]

Well, yeah but mute button should be on and they can have like a color system on names that speak so you know if it’s your squad, nearby squad, nearby enemy, easier to find out who’s talking.

[civic mason]

me and my friend are either spawn camping the other team, or flying around in the transport heli/plane or attack copter

[coral kraken]

Lol I do enjoy a good fire fight though.

[civic mason]

blastin'

[white geyser]

🛠️🧰

[brittle forge]

That would be a trainwreck but it would be hilarious

Both teams shit talking each other while fighting over flags

[tribal obsidian]

That's just how you're supposed to play battlefield I thought

Too many people cruising down sweat central avenue

[civic mason]

not necessarily wrong

[soft swallow]

Mmh I don't like very much Battlefield 2042 movements. I mean, the secondary run is cool but I would prefer something more immersive and less arcade like BFV

[arctic grove]

Brutal Expectations

[cedar turtle]

100%

[arctic grove]

Peak battlefield experience

[brittle forge]

CoD’s deathchat for enemy players is honestly one of its best features ngl

[civic mason]

not if you're a streamer being sniped

[brittle forge]

Eh just mute all vc or just the death chat in that case

[civic mason]

[brittle forge]

I’m not going to be very sympathetic to a situation very few people have to deal with, sorry. It sucks but it’s not like there isn’t a solution

[civic mason]

[civic mason]

[tribal obsidian]

Streamers don't have rights

They can play animal crossing

[arctic grove]

Facts man

Just like how bf2042 wanted to add an everybody wins trophy

[thorn helm]

oh now paul shove nothing judge Judy is adding kingkong come on Battlefield lets step up our game

[arctic grove]

We got fort-apex

[uncut bay]

man i love not being able to exit a vehicle when a rocket is headed for it

[heavy linden]

ikr

[uncut bay]

and then sometimes because you're spamming the button, you jump out and jump back in, dying anyway

[chilly oak]

Thought that was just for me, never saw anyone complain about it

[civic mason]

u right

[uncut bay]

paik mastery done, hype

how fast does the sws fire? I got shot at twice in less than one second

[edgy oriole]

i wanna say its kinda quick, but i dont remember

this is the only video i have of 2 shot sws atm since i clean booted my pc not that long ago.

[uncut bay]

huh yeah

definitely got shot faster than that. Might've just been a connection issue

[edgy oriole]

if i wouldve peaked faster he wouldve died faster. its reset time is kinda quick.

unless what you experienced was quick quick then it prolly was connection

[uncut bay]

ya felt like half a second or something

[radiant prism]

Could've also been two people maybe?

[quartz wedge]

You know what battlefield 2042 needs

Proximity chat

[fiery shoal]

god no

[quartz wedge]

Why?

Proximity chat could really help out matches

[uncut bay]

nah he was right in front of me

[fiery shoal]

thats assuming in one of the most casual fps titles out there that people are using VOIP to actually coordinate in the first place

[quartz wedge]

Halo 3 had proximity chat

[fiery shoal]

halo 3 is a competitive fps title through and through, and only has up to 32 people in a match?

[quartz wedge]

Ok but it can be done tho, idk i just think having proximity chat would be awesome

[full jetty]

the game needs all chat first

i wanna talk shit to the enemy team

[uncut bay]

honestly i never knew how important all chat was until it was taken from us

it just isn't the same, i can't compliment or insult my enemies anymore

no more mutual love/hatred between teams

[gray comet]

All you’d hear is the same game audio echoing through someone loud ass speakers because turning a mic off takes too much effort

I have not heard a single person actually talk through voice chat yet.

[hard plume]

We don’t even use the chat we have now.

Least we use the text chat

[gray comet]

Text chat is good

A lot less “**** game” and “this game *****” lately

Of course discord messes up the asterisks but you get what I mean

A lot less people saying it sucks and blah blah blah, a lot more actual communication happening

[mental delta]

Someone has a link to see all unreleased content or things like this pls ? I want to hurt myself by watching things that could have been in the game 🙂

[bold parcel]

How's the fps in bf2042 now

After 4.0

[mental delta]

Wut ?

[bold parcel]

Fps.... Frames per second ... How is it

Did it improve? Worsen?

[mental delta]

Idk I don't play on pc

[bold parcel]

Ah well whoever does

Answer me or I'll shoot

[fiery shoal]

afaik there was no performance updates in regards to fps in 4.0

[mental delta]

Unreleased content

[uncut bay]

it seemed to have improved slightly for me, though i couldn't give you a number. Feels more consistent overall

[hexed mango]

Lets play guess that review

I give you text from a review and you have to decide if it is a positive (👍) or a negative (👎) review!

Review:

[empty bloom]

not enough swear words

[hexed mango]

i will reveal the answer in 2 minutes

[gray comet]

“No hitreg problems”

[hexed mango]

1 minute remaining to pick your vote

[grave prism]

are servers down ?

[hexed mango]

Time's up
......

The answer was: Negative!

@gray comet is our winner or smth idk

[wide shore]

What a good review

[hexed mango]

ikr 10/10

[wide shore]

[hexed mango]

they also said this in their review

[uncut bay]

anybody else struggling to find games?

[grave prism]

was just getting "missing privileges to play online" but a restart fixed it

other people probably getting similar error

[fiery shoal]

lol its so dumb but i love it

[silk surge]

Wouldn't evil angel be devil?

[gray comet]

No he’d be a likable character

[thorn helm]

& on these Guided Knights, Too let the other worlds know....... we're here..... we'll strive to get off this ***Forsaken rock once and for all, And That this Nature is never well spent.....

[silk surge]

Angel has so bad its good vibe to him.

If they plan to remove the voice lines, they should leave Angel's in just to spite the subreddit.

[hexed mango]

LMAO

[wide shore]

They gotta keep “don’t be sad, this is just how it works out sometimes”

[river trench]

How im a goin to play if there is no"dont be sad this is just how it works out sometimes"

Gonna miss it

[fossil fox]

Just played since January it's almost stable but the guns feel like poop

[gray comet]

DM7 is the only one with “feeling” for me, but its incredibly hit or miss

Its a semi auto with really bad full auto spread, for some reason

Not gonna lie I think this game needs a Metro or Locker

[tame vine]

Definitely, close quarter maps have been on a steady decline ever since Bf1

[hexed mango]

you can always play tdm tbh its pretty fun, there's some cool portal modes they should just add to AoW, like TDM, Rush, stuff like that

[placid echo]

I'm getting back into portal making. My Distance Master is pretty fun but I find that the massive versions of the 2042 maps aren't exactly fun to play FFA with. So I moved it to a few of the large maps

I tried it on Breakaway and that wasn't a good idea lol

[hexed mango]

same i made 2 games yesterday, a one in the chamber gamemode and a juggernaut gamemode
took a bit to get used to the code, but i found portal-unleashed which made it nice cause i <3 js

[placid echo]

It's nice to have a TDM/FFA mode that isn't just killing

[hexed mango]

what's distance master about

(sidenote: it would be cool eventually to get the ability to manipulate vehicles in the rule editor, i hope it gets added in the future)

[placid echo]

Snipers only, distance of kills give you score, 25% headshot multiplier.

[hexed mango]

oooh nice

[radiant prism]

I’d love to do a sort of mad max type of mode on line hourglass

[placid echo]

Every player can see their most recent kill score, their best kill score and the highest killscore of the match

[placid echo]

I believe someone did that lol

[radiant prism]

I fucking hope so, it sounds fun

[placid echo]

I had thoughts of Condor vs Condor battles. You can only be in a Condor, it's got a lot more health, a lot more regeneration. If you get out the Condor, you have 15 seconds to get back in or die. No repair tools.

[gentle shuttle]

Hallo

When season 1 🗿

[placid echo]

soon™️

[gentle shuttle]

June

[placid echo]

Early Summer is all we know

[gray comet]

How low is the SCAR’s damage

[low timber]

Speaking of portal making, haven’t touched my TTT code in months, should probably check on it if the code I need would work now if there has been any updates.

[hexed mango]

idt there's been updates to the rules iirc

[fervent grotto]

I want to make a Cranked mode (like from cod where you have a timer and have to get a kill in a certain amount of time or die) except that the timer is set for if you touched an objective. You get two minutes and if you don’t touch a timer in that time you’ll die. Unless you’ve been in a vehicle for 30 seconds or more. The timer resets and doesn’t start going down till you leave the objective

[placid echo]

You mean like Cranked?

Because Grind is a totally different game mode lol

[fervent grotto]

Oh yea sorry. Cranked. Idk why I just called it grind

[placid echo]

tbf, Grind was a mode in BFV where it was just small layouts of 64 player Conquest

[fervent grotto]

I feel like it would be a good mode to prevent non objective play but I’m not sure if the timers to short. Maybe 3 minutes? 2 minutes and 30 seconds?

[gray comet]

Oh my God I want to punch Angel square so fucking badly

[hexed mango]

even though i got like 30 kills the last game in rush...

[fervent grotto]

Also I’m not even sure if I can make it function in portal

[placid echo]

Conquest does not have the Rules Editor

[fervent grotto]

Get in line bud

[fervent grotto]

Lame.

[gray comet]

Why did they have to design him like that

[fervent grotto]

Welp, guess my idea will have to die

[hexed mango]

dont be sad

[gray comet]

He could have just been a normal nondescript guy, but no he’s a smug asshole who shows up 4 times in a row after every match

[hexed mango]

3*

[gray comet]

Oh right theres always a sundance too

[river trench]

New pfp 😎

[hexed mango]

or a mackay

[fervent grotto]

AYYYY MW2

I’m gonna switch mine too

[hexed mango]

no its MIIW

[fervent grotto]

Done

[river trench]

Nice bro

[fervent grotto]

I can’t wait for this game fr

[river trench]

Its gonna be late 2022

[fervent grotto]

I’m gonna play it so much.

[river trench]

Hope its not gonna flop

[wide shore]

I can’t wait for MIIW

[river trench]

Man the logo looks cool as shit

[fervent grotto]

I don’t even care if it flops I’ll still play it to death lmao

[wide shore]

I’m not gonna buy it. Or play it. But I want to see the reload animations

[hexed mango]

ive never really played cod

[fervent grotto]

It’s fun

[wide shore]

Only COD I played the shit out of is Black Ops 1.

[fervent grotto]

I like bf too but cod is my main game

[hexed mango]

idk the few times ive played it was mainly zombies, and when i did play pvp i didnt have a lot of fun
but thats just me personally, and plus ive only owned iw (which ive heard isnt great idk)

[fervent grotto]

I really like to play infinite warfare, but yea it flopped pretty bad. Mostly because it was the 3rd advanced movement game in a row and people were bored of it

[hexed mango]

i see

[gray comet]

Tfw you get 6 hitmarkers point blank with the SCAR

[fervent grotto]

They did it dirty

[gray comet]

Does less damage than a .22lr

[hexed mango]

they compensate damage cause its under barrel

[gray comet]

Fires stupid slow and had bad spread too

[hexed mango]

which is dumb but whatever

[gray comet]

The EGLM sucks. It would be better without it IMO

[river trench]

[hexed mango]

yeah idk, it would be neat if it was a separate gadget like in bf4 rather than specific to a weapon

[fervent grotto]

The under barrel isn’t even that good lmao

[gray comet]

Theres a lot about it that makes no sense like the pressure pad wired to the gas block

[hexed mango]

the frag underbarrel can do damage, just doesnt work too well

[gray comet]

Sometimes it wont detonate

They removed the minimum arming distance feature though so IDK.

[hexed mango]

i forgot how fun rush is

they need to add it to aow

[fossil fox]

64 player mode does not work

Spent 20 mins waiting for 15 peps to join

[hexed mango]

nobody plays 64p

[fossil fox]

Nobody plays bf2042

[hexed mango]

that, on the contrary, is false

[cedar turtle]

Look at this graph 📈 every time I do it makes me laugh

[compact sleet]

Imagine playing on old gen

[hexed mango]

yes i finished the weekly i can stop playing angel now

[cyan trout]

On current gen and still choose 64 player over 128 100% of the time

[hexed mango]

sad, you are

[compact sleet]

Very disappointed. 64 is meaningless compared to 128. 128 is simply superior in every single way

[placid echo]

I forgot there's now voicelines that have names of specialists now

I revived a Boris and he said "It's nice to see your smile, Sundance". Meanwhile I'm wearing the helmet so he can't see it lol

[cyan trout]

Oh no! The tragedy...I live to have people on the internet respect me

[gray comet]

I am playing in a full 64p match right now

Your personal experience with a server does not ring true for everyones

[tepid agate]

Flashback conquest on those old maps, 64 players are awesome

[desert ridge]

decided to try 2042 after uninstalling since they first nerfed the helis long ago and first thing i get is a bugged menu screen where nothing even shows up lmao

restarted now i have an infinite loading screen

[night vessel]

ammm why is enemy's killed in rush and team mates resupplied with ammo not tracking ?

[drowsy sapphire]

He is a clown… the person you replied to

[drowsy sapphire]

Here comes this guy again to attack and say that 2042 sucks lol

[alpine vector]

Hey is anyone having no tracking on the weekly quests

[wind lodge]

yup

[alpine vector]

What the fug

Is anyone at all getting tracking?

[velvet sand]

It's still broken, confirmed on Twitter. It'll be fixed in an "upcoming patch"...eventually...at some point.

[hexed mango]

yeah i had that, idk what was happening, but i just kept playing and eventually got it, even though i played a 30-kill game and only got 4 kills

[velvet sand]

You'll still progress through the challenge, you just can't track progress. Don't expect a fix until the next update...whenever that is. Or maybe the update after that.

[patent plinth]

really loving the update. any answer to the connection problems on last gen or is is just maintenance?

[velvet sand]

https://www.bfstatus.com/ says it should be operational

[arctic grove]

Lmao that was the point

[drowsy sapphire]

[desert ridge]

waiting for 8 players

Those of you that argue and try to shine light on the game

you really are dumb

[hexed mango]

im sorry that the EU is more dead than the NA, not my problem

[fossil fox]

Just played rush with only 8 players the whole match. Dead fucking game

[tepid agate]

You need the find a good time to play. Different parts or the world are more dead than others. Usually easier to find games in the evening for me.

[hexed mango]

what region are you in, and do you have crossplay, and what platform are you on

cause all varies.

[fossil fox]

Us west X-Play is on

[tepid agate]

Yes, crossplay must be activated. Pretty essential to find games with it.

[hexed mango]

idk about your rush game then, cause i was just playing a few minutes ago, with full 32p

[tepid agate]

Your server should fill with bots though right? So it can be full in some way.

[hexed mango]

idt portal rush does

[scenic tartan]

You're a dead game

[edgy oriole]

"me when i say 2042 dead"

[gray comet]

Bro what

I just saw an Su-57 nosedive into the E objective on Renewal and it fucking bounced off and kept flying

I mean straight nose down impact, how

[tepid agate]

It used to be in critical condition. After the recent update, it's like the game is now slowly going through the physiotherapy sessions after the operation.

Season 1 should resume closer to normality.

[fossil fox]

And of course the cringe endings did not go away

[hexed mango]

i like them

[gray comet]

Why do people circle the jet spawns? Bad at dogfighting or just cheesing their KD up?

[thorn helm]

The barometric pressure must be down

[tepid agate]

You should do the flashback conquest. You can play 2042 characters on the old battlefield maps. The ending cringe is not there.

[hexed mango]

are you trying to forecast the weather?

[tepid agate]

What are your season 1 expectations? Are the rumors 1 new map, cover added to 1-2 current 2042 maps, and maybe some new weapons and 1 new specialist?

[cedar turtle]

animals

being able to captain the ship in the menu screen

[hexed mango]

i dont think the latter will happen, but that'd be cool
for animals, there are birds lel

there have been 4 leaked maps up to now, none confirmed, none identified as for what gamemode, cover from #948574259209437264 stuff, we should be getting at least 5 weapons, as there have been some leaked ones, and a possible leaked specialist

[patent plinth]

thank you!

[radiant prism]

3 specialists have been datamined, but nothing can really be determined yet

[hexed mango]

yeah

[tepid agate]

Oh cool that sounds a lot

[radiant prism]

Hale, and two others that I can't remember

[hexed mango]

yeah i remember hale

hale = r6 twitch ez

[tepid agate]

Any datamine on what they would do?

[radiant prism]

Hale supposed has a RC drone car, kinda like an RC-XD but apparently somewhat similar to Casper's drone?

[hexed mango]

hale has a drone

[radiant prism]

Lemme pull up the info sheet from temporyal hold on

[compact sleet]

It’s a Russian plane it’s built diff

[radiant prism]

95 kills to go on the PBX-45 until T1, gonna grind it out

[hexed mango]

sexy

[tepid agate]

Ah, Casper's drone only disables gadgets right? So his a little stronger to destroy them

[hexed mango]

and vehicles

[white geyser]

Since the MAV is not a fighting vehicle, they could have been more creative to make the actual fighting vehicle for the MAV, like make it look like LAV or another AA tank or something else.

[hexed mango]

🔹 Hale
🔹 Liz
🔹 Crawford

are the names for possible specialists

[tepid agate]

People just put C5 on drones to get around that

[gray comet]

the jets are janky asf

F-35 main and I cannot tell you how many times I have spawned in with it and it’s flying like its got wing damage, like it rolls super fast and barely pitches

[edgy oriole]

[tepid agate]

I'd like it if the have specialists who are fighting for the other countries, a special skin

[edgy oriole]

bought a bicycle today

[hexed mango]

pog

[alpine vector]

Do vehicle primary weapons count for this weeks challenges?

[gray comet]

RU and US have distinctive camo/uniforms, it would be neat if the same applied to specialists but I don’t think it ever will, despite the fanmade concept art coming out like a week after the beta showing it was possible

[hexed mango]

probably, if its a kill, its a kill

[alpine vector]

I mean primary vehicle weapons

[edgy oriole]

rush?

[hexed mango]

sure i got like 30m

[edgy oriole]

i just need 10 kills

[hexed mango]

aye

[tepid agate]

Yeah right now it's just everyone looking the same in a big free for all doesn't feel like it's US Vs RU at all.

Of course I would prefer if the gave the other country a while new specialist look instead on top of a skin. Just copy and paste the abilities and create a bew character looks to make it feel like it's a war between 2 places. That may be too much to ask though.

[edgy oriole]

then ill never touch rush again until the next mission

[hexed mango]

rush is fun tbh

[quiet shell]

I wonder how DICE and EA feel about us posting Temporals stuff

[edgy oriole]

AOW ONLY

[velvet sand]

well that's new, I guess sometimes the mouse just stays on your screen and you can't play the game

[bitter skiff]

Total free for all... PTFO is hard to imagine

[hexed mango]

they should really put rush and tdn in aow

[edgy oriole]

[gray comet]

The only indicator of what team I’m on really is what jet I’m in while my game is lagging out. I get that we arent technically playing russians or americans but still, it just feels like a disorganized disaster rather than a coordinated campaign.

Honestly just changing the color palettes and reskinning current uniforms would be enough to fix that, IMO

Just make RU noticably grey, and US noticably green/tan

[tepid agate]

In the last battlefield it was noticeably different when it was USA Vs Japan/Germany. Had new different characters and skins on both sides. Only facepaint being the same.

I'd be okay with any kind of improvement in that area to be honest.

Right now, you could have 128 Angels with the same skin in a battle but it's still "US vs RU" lol

[gray comet]

I spawned into breakthrough 64 earlier and I was in an all casper squad.

All of us dressed identically too.

Made it a tiny bit confusing when the people shooting at us were also casper

[velvet sand]

BF2042 is secretly a prequel to clone-wars.

[tepid agate]

I think it's fine if you're all on the same team/country.

Like I've never played hardcore mode but how do you even notice an enemy from a friendly without icons to let you know? Lol

[gray comet]

There is a tiny strip of luminescent red or teal on their torso

Which 9/10 times is either not noticable at all, covered by an arm, or is on the other side of them.

And when I say tiny I mean its like the length of your hand maybe, and very thin

[tepid agate]

👀

[radiant prism]

Enemies are clearly marked by red dots though, and also that red light still shines pretty brightly.

I've almost never had trouble distinguishing friendly from enemy

[gray comet]

My teammates seem to.

[tepid agate]

I thought in hardcore mode all those get taken away?

[gray comet]

Friendly fire more accurate than enemy fire ffs

[arctic grove]

Hippy cheech and chong boris

[radiant prism]

Then again I played a good portion of my time in BFV with my HUD turned off in standard MP so idk I might be more observant than the average player lol

[arctic grove]

or Boris from Men in Black 3

[radiant prism]

In hardcore yeah they do

Anyways down to 52 kills to go on the PBX for T1

[gray comet]

God please no

[hexed mango]

GOD please yes

[tepid agate]

Like I say, I've never try ed this mode on 2042, but just think it'll be hard to tell the difference because both countries look 90% the same

Would be nice to have the other country you're fifhteb we rh different looks

[arctic grove]

Why no? they might as well and go all out on the fortnite skins

[gray comet]

I just want something basic with a covered face so I don’t need to stare at a poorly rigged expression while I’m bleeding

[gray comet]

I don’t care if its a limited time joke gamemode or something but I really just don’t care for it in the main game.

[tepid agate]

They will build all this up to have Santa clause borris on the battlefield for the coming winter. I don't believe they deleted that, just put it on hold.

[hexed mango]

i like santa borris

[tepid agate]

Sometimes like the tiny emblems on the guns. I forget the thing is even there.

[sour meadow]

for the new weekly mission, do i need to play breakthrough or rush? because i can't find rush on all out warfare

[gray comet]

Which tiny emblems?

They’re guns there’s a million of them lol

[tepid agate]

Only one I remember is the dinosaur which hangs on the gun but they have others

[gray comet]

Oh those

Yeah forgot they even existed never used them

[tepid agate]

Like do they weekly mission to put it on your gun I never even notice the thing

[velvet sand]

cool, so the mouse just randomly pops up on Rush mode and you can't play, just have to leave the game and join a new one and hope the bug doesn't appear

[tepid agate]

They will keep seeing how far they can push it. I just hope it doesn't bloom into a vibrant "battlefield" with pink Mr blobby tanks

[gray comet]

^

I mean eh, I’m not sure we’re too far off. Just hope the next game returns to tradition more on the visual side

[tepid agate]

Just let those funky games be what they are any keep this one closer to battlefield

So you think it's a matter of time before our characters perform a dance end round animation for victory?

Maybe not as extreme as fortnight

[gray comet]

I think eventually we might get to choose what cool quirky unique likely monetized character quip or animation plays at the end when we’re commended for our 1 hipfire hill

[tepid agate]

I think in bfV different characters also had different end round animations too? Or that was only for the specialist type characters there

[gray comet]

I remember BF4 had every character model start jumping

[velvet sand]

gets 100 kills, spends the whole round contesting points, gets top revives Squad Highlight: 20 damage repaired

[tepid agate]

Yeah they would find the end round shot and jump lol

Even in 2042 people try fly their vehicles into the end round shot

[gray comet]

I am guilty of that

[sour meadow]

eh fuck i'm uninstalling and going back to bfv

[tepid agate]

I don't fly enough vehicles to try lol

[gray comet]

its not as fun as the flying jeep end round screens from BF4 but crashing into something right at the end is fun

[tepid agate]

What happened where they put C5 onto the jeep and blew it through the air into the Condor for the bf 2042 trailer?

Can you really do that? Those things can take like 5 rockets

[tepid agate]

It's certainly the most popular battlefield at the moment

[gray comet]

Nope.

[sour meadow]

it's also not a complete fucking scam

[gray comet]

Not even quadbikes go more than 20ft when you strap an absurb amount of C4 to them.

[tepid agate]

I remember seeing that dart gun too so rockets can lock onto a vehicle?

[gray comet]

No one uses it, its a portal thing and it requires teamwork that no one has

[tepid agate]

Yes, definitely underwhelming

[hexed mango]

well you can do it, if you code in portal to increase velocity

[tepid agate]

Oh I have never seen it before 🤔

[gray comet]

Assume 99% of the game’s content, especially advertised content, will be ignored for Sundance PP29 grenade spam

People arent fucking creative dont give yourself the idea that they do anything interesting in this game

[tepid agate]

I thought bk dozer fires it and Mackey shot the rocket

[gray comet]

Nope. Bad Company 2 portal item, I think, meaning you can’t even do that with them anyway.

[tepid agate]

So we would have to create a portal mode with 2042 characters with acces to BC2 weapons

[gray comet]

Which…

I have yet to see anyone do that, I think you’re locked to the incorrectly scaled and modeled BC2 classes

If you arent aware the BC2 models are like freakishly short

[hexed mango]

what item are you talking about

[gray comet]

Bad Company team US Recon is like nearly half of Mackay’s height

[tepid agate]

Well, classes didn't only encouraged but kinda forced everyone to use team work. But that's another topic of discussion.

[hexed mango]

no

[gray comet]

The Dart pistol that lets RPGs track aircraft, vehicles etc

[tepid agate]

I saw a dart gun in the trailer

[hexed mango]

picture? i dont know of that, but the soflam does similar

[sour meadow]

that's one way to put it

[tepid agate]

They were in the desert, a jet flew past and one fired the tracking dart and other shot the rocket to take the jet out

[radiant prism]

Only 17 more kills for T1 on the PBX

Racking them up

[tepid agate]

I think the only map I have seen you can fly above clouds is Orbital, unless others have tried more 🤔
