battlefield-2042

[lyric locust]

Nice try to troll

[cyan trout]

Another possibility would be Dice making a solid game so crossplay wouldn't be needed

[cedar turtle]

I'm not trolling, it's common sense.

[edgy oriole]

I turn aim assist off on console when i used to play console so i cant have a word here.

[uncut bay]

giving keyboard aim assist would make it stupid easy to kill people, on top of already having an advantage by input method

[lyric locust]

But why not enable x-play? It should by all means become standart

[cedar turtle]

It's like driving a convertible without ever putting the top down. Just buy the coupe instead

[uncut bay]

consoles are cheaper and easier to use, some people just prefer kb and mosue

[cyan trout]

I agree. But in 2042's case it is more of a necessity rather than an option

[cedar turtle]

That's not exactly true anymore. Plus if you're purchasing a keyboard and mouse and a gaming monitor for your console, it's especially more expensive than buying a PC

[lyric locust]

I cannot comment in bf state, only devs have numbers. But x-play for me is just as part of the game, as settings menu on PC game

[uncut bay]

not really, if you want a pc with the capabilities of a PS5 or XSX you're gonna be spending upwards of $2000

[ripe pecan]

I agree with the crossplatform of consoles only if M&K is not enabled for consoles, making console go against PC without making it even has kept me away from this game so far, and a few friends who I know ow have this game on PC have stayed away cause of the feature also.

[cyan trout]

You can turn it off and report back your experience

[lyric locust]

Hahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahah 😄 no. 2060 (mid gaming pc) costs over 1.3k eur just for tower

[lyric locust]

Turn off what? X-play? I have around same wait times, but i play with pc only crowd then

[cedar turtle]

Your PS5, if you can find one, also requires monthly membership to play online. PC doesn't. Do you only have a console and no computer in the house?

[uncut bay]

$60 per year to play online, by the time a new console gen comes around you'll still not have spent as much as an equivalent pc would've cost

[cyan trout]

Oh ok. That's interesting to hear.

[lyric locust]

Ps5 costed me 500 eur and 30 eur 3 month sub for ps plus + getting 3 free games monthly

[lyric locust]

And 36 free games for 60 eur, not a bad deal

[uncut bay]

this shouldn't even be an argument. Consoles are cheaper, especially now

[lyric locust]

Oh wait, you didnt know ps plus gave free games? 😄

[cedar turtle]

the same way Wendy's has free napkins

[lyric locust]

Indeed. Consoles (new gen) are as powerful as pcs with i7 and 2070, costing inly part of price

[cedar turtle]

I disagree. I think if you have a PC at home, and you game on your PS5, you're spending a lot more to play on mouse and keyboard.

[lyric locust]

Death stranding, bloorbourne, horizon doesnt feel like napkins for me 😄

[cedar turtle]

Just build a gaming PC, and its all there. Plus there's more games to play than just Gran Turismo 7.

[lyric locust]

Dude… im running ryzen 9 and 3090sli, believe me, i know how much parts cost and i have money to buy them. And i still say console atm is better money/power ratio than any pc on market

[uncut bay]

if you already have a gaming pc and you choose to play on console with keyboard then yeah, i'd agree. But most computers people will have are a cheap dell or something of the sort. Refer to previous messages to see why your plan would be more expensive

[cedar turtle]

Everyone's situation is different. And there's plenty of games on PC that don't have controller support (that should). But keyboard/mouse console makes little sense to me.

[lyric locust]

Agreed on that one

[cyan trout]

Do other games allow for mouse and keyboard on your console? Just trying to see whether your grievance would be better directed at the consoles themselves

[lyric locust]

Some do

[cedar turtle]

I have PS5 and PC, but PS5 is only for GT7, and I got it for free. But even games I already had on my PS Account, I bought on Steam because its just a better experience.

that's personal pref obviously.

[uncut bay]

i don't have a console, but that's not really relevant to what i'm arguing, this just started out as me explaining why some would want to play with a keyboard on console

[lyric locust]

I use pc only for shooters and MMOs, everything else is on PS5, cause i love physical media (disks) to have as collectable

[hardy leaf]

how do you like the experience of the last of us on steam?

[uncut bay]

wheeze

[cedar turtle]

Haven't played.

[uncut bay]

exclusives are one thing i miss from having consoles

[lyric locust]

Less and less are actually good, sadly

[fervent grotto]

Yea

Exclusives get lower and lower on the list of reasons to buy a console. I just buy Xbox cus it’s what I’m familiar with

[cedar turtle]

I don't know how some games still manage with things like GamePass that give people an entire library with brand new games for $5-15 per month

[fervent grotto]

I don’t give a shit about halo. Frankly I hate halo

[uncut bay]

i love halo, though i only got into it recently

[fervent grotto]

Forza’s fun tho

[uncut bay]

infinite is pretty meh though, same situation as 2042

[lyric locust]

Nobody wants to invest into team shooters too much, when BR is all the rage

[uncut bay]

that's just a fat lie, team shooters are still immensely popular and halo would've done much better if it didn't release as a beta

[lyric locust]

What team shooter outside csgo and valorant are popular now?

[edgy oriole]

overwatch

[uncut bay]

? vanguard while not doing as well as cods usually do, is still very popular. The halo and battlefield communities are still massive, as seen by their sales and player counts on release

BRs might've become popular, but team shooters are still sought after

[edgy oriole]

oh yeah cod streams events on youtube now exclusively and the one time i saw the league they had pretty decent numbers

[lyric locust]

you mean game, that has bled out so much, only updates it is getting is lootboxes and sequel put on hold?

[edgy oriole]

yes still popular

[lyric locust]

its on same life support as TF2

[edgy oriole]

the beta fire af too.

team fortress 2?

[lyric locust]

yes

[edgy oriole]

i wouldnt blame them for retiring tf2. game is 50 years old

[lyric locust]

yes, but skill ramp up is so high, new player have no chance to catch up to veterans

[clear quail]

Paradox

[edgy oriole]

Yes the consumer mindset. im also a victim of

[golden hornet]

Who needs 100+ plus games

[uncut bay]

some people like trying new games

[cedar turtle]

Is BF2042 on game pass?

[lunar berry]

Anyway to have add squad tags in 2042?

[silk surge]

You mean like platoons? No, not currently.

There's this guy on Twitter that has made it his thing to ask DICE every day about platoons.

[lunar berry]

It sounds like there's going to be a snowfall levolution event on that map.

[desert elbow]

Yeah the map looks really cool, with all the winter skins it would make sense for a snow type event on the map

[edgy oriole]

facility metro 2042 confirmed

[desert elbow]

Some people have mentioned an Operation Locker-type facility

[silk surge]

I really really hope that they'll add some insane levolution events in season 1. The rocket explosion is badass, but DICE can do even better than that.

[fervent grotto]

I prefer overall destruction vs levolution

[silk surge]

Same. But I do love me some levolution as well.

[fervent grotto]

The rocket is kinda lame and it doesn’t affect the map at all.

And most of the time levolution makes the map worse. Like with Shanghai

[silk surge]

It adds a lot of shrapnel around the catwalk.

[fervent grotto]

Sure more cover for the catwalk but that does nothing really

C sector is easily the least contested sector

[silk surge]

But they should stick to levolution that doesn't radically change the map and is simply aesthetically pleasing.

[fervent grotto]

But that’s kinda lame. Big explosion does nothing. But for example in BFV almost every little thing can be destroyed and that makes it interesting

[silk surge]

In breakthrough it's not. But I think in Conquest, F1 is even less contested.

[fervent grotto]

That’s just imo, but I’d at least like some more destruction. That’s kinda why I play bf

[desert elbow]

You definitely can't destroy everything in bf5 though

[fervent grotto]

F1?

[silk surge]

First objective in the F-sector.

The one closest to Russia's base.

[fervent grotto]

Yea but most everything has some sort of destruction. 2042 has a few buildings that can have walls blown up but they don’t fall

[fervent grotto]

Ohhhh wait your on PS5 that’s why I don’t recognize that. Your maps bigger than mine so you more points

[desert elbow]

The buildings in BF5 don't fall either though

[silk surge]

In Arras, it was pretty damn close to everything tbh

[desert elbow]

Yeah true, same could be said about Hourglass in 2042 though

[fervent grotto]

Yes they do? Aero dome, wake island, Iwo Jima bunkers can be blown open, and a bunch of others

[desert elbow]

You can collapse most of the town in hourglass similarly

[fervent grotto]

What was that one snow map

All the buildings on there blow open and collapse

[fervent grotto]

Yea, but that’s a single spot where you can do that.

[desert elbow]

Narvik I think

[arctic grove]

Uber eats doe

[lofty nymph]

we get MW2 before new content in 2042 💀

[fervent grotto]

YES! That one

[desert elbow]

On Arica Harbor you can collapse almost every single building

[silk surge]

I mean kinda. Just like every other 2042 map, there are so many big buildings and structures that understandably can't be destroyed.

[fervent grotto]

Yea but in bfV you can shoot down the little watch towers

[desert elbow]

Exactly, if you compare it to BF4 the destruction is pretty much the same

[silk surge]

But the small houses in the Hourglass village are basically made of paper.

[desert elbow]

You can in BF2042 too

[fervent grotto]

No not the electrical tower. The little wooden sniper posts

[silk surge]

It's weird that it never gets brought up. BF4 maps really didn't have that much destruction either. They had a whole lot of levolution events, but that's pretty much it.

[desert elbow]

There are wooden sniper nests in some of the WW2 maps

[dapper river]

@fervent grotto I think you meant MIIW, we already have a MW2

[desert elbow]

Exactly, BF4 in general had a lot less destruction than BF3 overall

[silk surge]

I loved how you were able to rebuild watchtowers in BFV after they got destroyed.

[fervent grotto]

I prefer bf1 and bfV overall destruction more compared to bf4 and 2042 levolution events. But that still is just imo so yea

[fervent grotto]

No I meant MW2.

[dapper river]

but you're saying it in the future tense implying MW2 has yet to release, yet it's been almost 13 years since it launched

[desert elbow]

I can agree though, in BF1 and BF5 it felt like you could destroy anything, but that was mainly due to the way the maps were designed (A lot less massive structures like skyscrapers)

[fervent grotto]

Yes but putting MW2 means the exact same thing and people still get what I mean. I’m not gonna change it

[desert elbow]

Man I really hope MW2 is amazing

[silk surge]

This is why I like pre-historic BF games. There is so much room for destructibility that simply isn't feasible in a modern/futuristic map.

[desert elbow]

I heard it might have a Rainbow Six Siege type mode

[fervent grotto]

It’s MW2 and you all know what I mean when I call it that. Don’t act like putting MW2 is confusing

[dapper river]

Same thing as what? Your profile pic literally has no "2" anywhere. It just says MIIW

[fervent grotto]

Kay man, nice troll attempt

[dapper river]

Whatever MIIW

[arctic grove]

@dapper river you're so pick me

[solid imp]

Brilliant! BF 2042 BC...

[silk surge]

Wait... pre-historic is the wrong term here. I meant like BF games taking place in previous wars.

[fervent grotto]

Riding dinosaurs with mounts spear launchers

[desert elbow]

Historic in general I suppose

[solid imp]

I'd play it

[fervent grotto]

Is it cooked? If not, then I highly advise against it

[silk surge]

Yeah.

[fervent grotto]

Same

[solid imp]

could still have air support with pteridons

so then BF200042 BC yea?

[fervent grotto]

Velociraptors as 4 wheelers

[solid imp]

maybe I missed a 0

[fervent grotto]

Stegosaurus’s that are like APCs

We could have an ice age map with wooly mammoths where a massive glacier falls

[solid imp]

when? 🙂

[celest mist]

what are you talking about

[fervent grotto]

We could have assault (clubs and spears, spears act like rpgs) medic (they just throw herbs at you) support (they carry extra spears and rocks) and recon (slingshots that fire rocks)

[solid imp]

seriously brilliant, I would honestly play that game

games like civ and humankind gloss over prehistory way way too fast let alone get into FPS on it

[desert elbow]

A prehistorical battlefield concept

[fervent grotto]

Dice needs to hire me. My ideas are absolutely impeccable

And recons could have spawn beacons (just a campfire)

[short forum]

Say what u want about 2042 but at least thank DICE LA for making portal

[fervent grotto]

Valcano map, ice age map, a sort of operation locker map in caves, another map where you fight through a swamp, another map with a wide field and little caves you can go into that have other little underground connections to other caves

[solid imp]

heh you're not wrong, DICE should hire you

[fervent grotto]

Guys I’m gonna create a prehistoric bf. What should I name it

Ohhh and a jungle map

[desert elbow]

Battlefield 0 haha

[uncut bay]

a dinosaur gamemode is just waiting to happen, they need to get on it

[uncut bay]

meh, portal is cool but the map remasters can hardly be called remasters. Won't even get into the movement/gunplay/hud issue

[short forum]

So someone who comes up with new maps ideas

[opaque junco]

Battlefield Medieval 🏰

[desert elbow]

Why can they hardly be called remasters?

[fervent grotto]

I don’t want battlefield to be in the name since it wouldn’t actually be them making it

[fervent grotto]

That’s way to in the future.

[opaque junco]

Haha 😆

[uncut bay]

because they hardly improved upon the original maps, watch a comparison and you'll see what i mean

[short forum]

Battlefield Jurassic

[uncut bay]

mesozoic field

[opaque junco]

Dinosaur classes 🤨

[fervent grotto]

Yea dinosaurs act like vehicles in the game

[short forum]

Raptor is scout, support T-Rex

[opaque junco]

T. rex as a heavy tank

[fervent grotto]

Naw someone who makes the best battlefield game ever

[fervent grotto]

Yea and they have spear satchels so you can throw spears while on them

[short forum]

Do you have the qualifications for such a job

Need to be good at IT

[opaque junco]

Great idea lol

[fervent grotto]

Recon gets spears and slingshots

[fervent grotto]

Uhhhh definitely 100% I’m super duper qualified for that

[opaque junco]

OOOO HOW ABOUT, Battlefield Ice Age

[short forum]

Then by all means see if there's a position open for you

[fervent grotto]

Hmmm. I feel like battlefield prehistoric would work better

[desert elbow]

The graphics have been upgraded a ton

[arctic grove]

they just nerfed the destructibility and that’s all lol

[desert elbow]

That's a lie

[arctic grove]

Like the graphics are an improvement but the destructibility is worse than say BF1

It’s really not, look at the destruction in battlefield 1 compared to 2042

[opaque junco]

It would but think about it, Using mammoths 🦣 as tank support, and saber tooth tigers

[desert elbow]

Some of the maps in Portal have destruction copied and pasted from bf1

[arctic grove]

Not all though some have downgraded

[desert elbow]

Eh idk about that

[fervent grotto]

And don’t worry, battlefield prehistoric will have no specialists with cringy voicelines. The only voice kind will be grunts and oogas

[desert elbow]

Hard to compare both of them really

[fervent grotto]

YO ACTUALLY the medics would be shamans

[arctic grove]

Lmao they jsuf start screaming halfway through the end cutscene

[fervent grotto]

And maybe there could be elite pick ups like bf1. One would be a chieftain that duel wields stone clubs.

[arctic grove]

Scout will just be a archer

[opaque junco]

They did say in 2042 that the voice lines will be changed and much more like.. yk, more serious voice lines

[grizzled whale]

Battlefield primal

Completely original title

[desert elbow]

My daily challenges aren't showing up at all, I think they're fixing it

[ionic tulip]

Bf 2042 bc

[uncut bay]

battlefield 100,000,000

you could do a futuristic setting, where dinosaurs have returned and humanity returned to stone

since y'know, humans and dinosaurs unfortunately did not live at the same time

[fervent grotto]

Yes, that’s it. This is the name

Battlefield B.C.

[uncut bay]

bro how do these goddamn emp grenades work

feels like sometimes they blow up in my face, sometimes in mid air and sometimes not at all

[frosty mural]

no one knows

[velvet sand]

Man, no feedback loop for all of april. This pace for these feedback loops is really slow and underwhelming.

[river trench]

[warped pulsar]

You guys think we getting only 1 map for season 1?

[velvet sand]

That's what DICE has said, so yes.

[river trench]

Yes its only 1 map

[uncut bay]

yeah

[velvet sand]

Really hoping they surprise us and give us a bit more for S1 given that it's been delayed and that the work during the delay is...not the most exciting so far.

Hoping they can port some of the Portal maps to AOW or something so we've got more actually good maps to play on.

[river trench]

Maybe

[uncut bay]

bro i swear to god these emp grenades are broken

[clear quail]

ok the rush challenge is bugged

@frank rain you were right, I've finished the other 2, but the Rush mission never acknowledges kills in Rush

[velvet sand]

I stopped using them. After throwing 3-4 right in the face of a vehicle only to have them instantly shoot me because the direct-contact and explosion fo the grenade did nothing was super fun.

[uncut bay]

yeah i'm just trying to get a card and need to disrupt 15 enemies. Taken me 3 games and i still don't have it

[radiant prism]

I remember back when there was a challenge to disrupt enemies and EVERYONE was using the EMP nades lmao

Couldn't go two seconds without getting EMP'd

[uncut bay]

it's fucking absurd how bad they are, i can throw them into a corner with 4 people and somehow not hit anybody

[short forum]

wish the vehicles were more resilient to static vehicles or impacting the ground

[uncut bay]

and that's assuming they don't blow up before getting to the corner for some unknown reason

[short forum]

I mean a tank shouldn't lose 20% of its health after running a car over

[radiant prism]

Yeah the static vehicles exploding need to do less damage to vehicles

Its especially bad on Hourglass where they act like landmines when they're buried

[silk surge]

Yeah, vehicles lose health over the dumbest shit in this game.

[eternal storm]

I just want domination right now as a mode

[silk surge]

I absolutely love being main gunner for a competent condor pilot. We owned the lobby.

[radiant prism]

I mean, conquest is effectively just domination but huge

[eternal storm]

It’s not the same

Like domination in bf4 was small maps and rapid capturing

[silk surge]

Usually when I spawn in a condor, it's piloted by someone feeble minded. Feels nice to actually being able to do something with it.

[velvet sand]

Condor hovers in place low to the ground for maximum effectiveness. NEVER FLY ANYWHERE, JUST HOVER

[tiny imp]

Flashack CQ is back, Good news

[uncut bay]

that's how you die immediately

[hard plume]

I dominated heavily yesterday with the hind cause i had great gunners, we held off b2 in breakthrough for quite some time

[silk surge]

I really enjoy the current FNB mode.

[uncut bay]

i didn't find it too different from default cq tbh, gonna be playing rush

[radiant prism]

I mostly just hang around condors until the ground is clear enough to jump or we're getting torn up and I need to get on the ground before we get shot down

[silk surge]

The projectile speed doesn't feel any faster. Not like it was in Rush Chaos.

[radiant prism]

I just prefer being on the ground in general, I don't trust when other people have the wheel lmao

Like I never get in other people's transports, they're just death traps 90% of the time

Not for very long at least

[silk surge]

They usually are death traps, but it's worth the risk. Way better than spawning way behind.

[hard plume]

Fly with me, i would never leave you to die

Unless its the condor in which case your survival is 50/50

[radiant prism]

Ground transports though are just death

Boltes, Hovercraft, LATV4's....unless I'm driving, I want out lol

[silk surge]

I have it in my muscle memory to never spawn in a ground transport because of the pre-4.0 ADS bug.

[radiant prism]

I still have that too, I still check my ADS anytime I get out of a vehicle lol

[silk surge]

Sounds like we were both traumatized by it.

[radiant prism]

Yeah

[thick copper]

got no clipping hackers now tf

[hard plume]

And then people wonder why tanks hold back from the obj. Thats a death trap

[silk surge]

Tanks are so hilariously weak in this installment.

Snail turning speed, barely any splash damage, C5 being thrown at super sonic speed.

They're so annoying to maneuver as well.

[radiant prism]

I just don't like using tanks in general

Larger vehicles just feel like larger targets

[clear quail]

whippin 40 kills with the NTW wth

[radiant prism]

Even in previous titles I didn't like tanks

[uncut bay]

ntw is op bro i'm telling you

(it's not op this is a joke do not nerf it)

[clear quail]

tbh, I've found anti-armour rounds to be more effective if you're playing aggressive

[short forum]

C5 being thrown at super sonic speed are one of the settings people can do in Portal

[clear quail]

cuz u get the added benefit of more dmg to vehicles

[uncut bay]

i've stopped trying to use it against armor tbh, it's far more useful against infantry

[short forum]

I find the CRAM on Caspian Border flying pretty funny though

[clear quail]

i use it on vehicles when they're less than 50% hp

[silk surge]

Not talking about that, I meant the extremely low input delay on each throw. It gives me BC2 vibes.

[short forum]

lol

[silk surge]

I miss AT/tank balance of BFV. It actually took skill to take down tanks by yourself.

[uncut bay]

challenge: deal 100 explosive damage with at mines
action: destroy one tank
result: ~60 damage
EOR: 687 explosive damage

thanks game

[radiant prism]

Did you use literally any other explosive weapons that round?

30mm? Frag grenades?

[uncut bay]

i miss it because it was easier lol, the reload times for the recoilless are absurd and taking down any vehicle in 2042 is a monumental task unless you have squadmates

and no the only other thing that might count as explosive would've been my incendiary grenade, which i didn't use @radiant prism

[rapid moon]

And the recoiless doesnt even have enough ammo to kill a tank lol

[tacit sorrel]

Taking out stuff is ez asf with angel

[uncut bay]

that too, trying to take on a vehicle by yourself is utterly pointless unless it's with c5

which is a shame because i was looking forward to hunting vehicles like i used to in BFV. The weaponry available was super nice too

[tacit sorrel]

Taking out vehicles in 2042 is easier than bfv imo

[uncut bay]

how do you do it

[tacit sorrel]

Just spam rockets

[uncut bay]

welp, doesn't work for me. Not enough rockets and slow reload time

[tacit sorrel]

Play as angel

Use all rockets call in drop

Or Sundance use all rockets and her at grenades

It’s stupid ez with angel tho

[zinc nest]

Anyone on PC get the "DirectX Error"?

[hard plume]

Bf players: no one wants to work as a team anymore

Also bf players: i wanna solo kill a tank

[uncut bay]

restocking would be nice but by the time i have more rockets the armor will either be destroyed already or gone somewhere else, and i'm lucky if the smart grenades go where i'm pointing

[tacit sorrel]

Or use emp grenades and rockets

[uncut bay]

well i went over emp grenades a few messages up, won't be touching those again

[tacit sorrel]

Helicopters on the other hand can be a pain

Tanks ain’t shit

[uncut bay]

yeah, stinger range needs to be increased imo

[burnt arch]

Anyone??

Playing

[radiant prism]

Ive found the best anti-tank method is using both an M5 and anti-armor grenade launcher grenades. Soften up with rockets, then keep pounding with the grenades

[wet sedge]

i am

[grave prism]

god i hope that smgs just get nerfed to being completly useless at any rnge past 5 feet

so BORING everybody uses smg or m5a3

[silk surge]

I'm rubberbanding like crazy atm. Anyone else?

[uncut bay]

all good on my side

[silk surge]

I'm at 20ms, it's not on my end

Might've been the server.

[grand cosmos]

Goodmorning bro"s

[clear quail]

had some for a few min

[jade merlin]

im getting slightly bored of this game now

[silk surge]

That boris turret needs to be fucking hard deleted from the game

My blood pressure skyrockets every time that shit tags me through walls, fuck

[velvet sand]

It's so skillful for 5 Boris's to cover an entire area with turrets so that you get shot by 2-3 at any given time and have no chance of getting close without at least one spotting you.

They're not bad individually. Easy enough to avoid (as long as there's not total chaos around you) and take out pretty quickly. But stacking them gets very, very rough. It needs to spot or do damage, not both.

[silk surge]

They're fucking bad individually. If you don't hear the warning noise and get hit, it literally hits you 70 in one frame AND spots you.

That shit shouldn't have left the drawing table.

[velvet sand]

Could be said about a lot of the decisions in this game sigh

[empty jasper]

Looking for gunners for hind/condor! PC EU

@nova barn Just join the hind club

[edgy oriole]

[balmy veldt]

you say that as if it's a bad thing. It is not.

[crisp junco]

Yeah aa vehicle in this game is worse than some guy with a stinger
The best aa is an apache

[balmy veldt]

Not what I was referring to but okay.

[uncut bay]

lmao grow up

[hardy leaf]

is any specialist gay in 2042?

[balmy veldt]

I don't think we know

[empty jasper]

any gunner squad for hind/condom?

[fiery shoal]

this is quite literally not the correct way to use the word...

[velvet sand]

"Why do people dislike my bigotry?! THEY'RE SO MEAN TO ME THOSE LIBS ARE INTOLERANT OF ME BEING AN ASSHOLE" ok fam

Be a decent person and there's nowhere to go, bro.

[crisp junco]

Gay does have a secondary meaning for stupid
But i wouldnt say thats really something people would thing of first when they hear it

[hardy leaf]

Liberals dislike everything which isnt under their snow propagandas

[next isle]

@nova barn Drop it

Thanks

Why is it gonna be may next
Why not June

[edgy oriole]

thats what im saying get tornado season outta here

[crisp junco]

Im sad that people use the transports as a second attack chopper
Like you can park it above an objective and just spawn paratroopers

[hard plume]

Not rn but if you hit me up in a few hours or tomorrow i’d be down

Its like, thats what it was designed for

[echo yew]

dude, can all you swearts not kill me while im trying to look at the rocket getting destroyed by the tornado? thanks

[edgy oriole]

it do be kinda hard to deal with when they go to the top of the map and drop down for quick spawns and nobody can counter it. thats when i wish my team always has a top tier pilot, but thats rarely the case.

[echo yew]

also when orbital and manifest 24/7

[uncut bay]

i feel that. Wish the server would stop and admire levolution like that

[echo yew]

it was like that on the beta

[brittle forge]

I think people use it that way because when they’re kitted they are legit better than the attack choppers

Depends on the gunners

[echo yew]

i swear if this game had a map filter i'd only have Orbital and Manifest enabled

[edgy oriole]

manifest/discarded for me

if they change B points on breakaway id include that.

[velvet sand]

You'll get Kaleidoscope every single time, playing defense every single time on breakthrough, and you'll like it.

[echo yew]

i'd have kaleidoscope blocked permanently

[uncut bay]

orbital and manifest i agree

[echo yew]

worst map in fps history

[velvet sand]

The Matchmaking Algorithm has decreed it.

[uncut bay]

renewal is love/hate. Kaleidoscope is pure hate

[brittle forge]

On Breakthrough I actually like Kaleidoscope. Fuck conquest on it tho

[edgy oriole]

i like A2 onwards for south korea. i hate A1

[brittle forge]

On Breakthrough I’d have every map except Breakaway enabled. Fuck Breakaway

[echo yew]

kaleidoscope -990/10
hourglass 1/10
Breakaway 2/10
Renewal 3/10
Discarded 4/10
Orbital 7/10
Manifest 9/10

[uncut bay]

i agree but swap manifest and orbital

[edgy oriole]

changing B area for breakaway would make it way better for me. those 2 points have nothing going for it other than the cinematic view of everyone jumping off cliff with parachute

[echo yew]

i stand by my position on the fact that Kaleidoscope is just wrong from a design standpoint and should be remade from scratch

Hourglass needs it's layout to be more city and less empty dunes

[uncut bay]

it was a questionable map for sure, but i think they can salvage it with a proper makeover

[echo yew]

Breakaway has too much deadzones

[uncut bay]

hourglass would need... a lot of changes

[echo yew]

Renewal needs 10x more cover

[velvet sand]

Ye, maps need some significant reworks...but we're just getting some minor updates with shipping containers for cover that will apparently take 3-4 months to do to 2 maps.

[brittle forge]

Breakaway 0/10
Hourglass 3/10
Renewal 5/10
Kaleidoscope 5/10
Orbital 6.5/10
Discarded 7/10
Manifest 7.5/10

[uncut bay]

i mean shit, even if the game was going to be BR, BR maps have more cover than this, they messed up on all levels

[velvet sand]

Still convinced they were too far down the road with 128 players to realize just how badly the concessions in other areas of the game would be to allow for those player counts. Though the maps being so huge with a ton of "wasted space" to begin with just compounds that problem.

[next isle]

Breakaway - Nah
Hourglass - Nah
Renewal - Okay
Kaleidoscope - Okay
Orbital - Okay
Discarded - Okay
Manifest - Okay

[brittle forge]

Manifest and Discarded are the only maps I’d consider calling good relative to the rest of the series. The rest are either good by the standards of this game, or just bad maps

[velvet sand]

+1

[meager lion]

i think orbitol on attack is quite nice

[velvet sand]

well, Orbital is close

[crisp junco]

Orbital is the only one i like
I hate the one with the boats the most

[lyric snow]

manifest too dark

[pearl zenith]

Is hazard zone playable for any of you? I can't find a game atall

[meager lion]

but what do you think of the future of bf2042?

[meager lion]

just containers nothing more

[lyric snow]

that aswell

[crisp junco]

Its dead on release tbh

[velvet sand]

It's a future alright. That's about as optimistic as I am.

[brittle forge]

I don’t know what I think about Orbital tbh. I’m not impressed by it at all but it’s not awful to play on

[lyric snow]

i love breakaway

[pearl zenith]

They should've done a campaign instead of hazard

[uncut bay]

i like orbital, i was hoping it would be the worst of the bunch and that they'd surprise us with the rest but... well, they surprised us in the wrong way

[meager lion]

true

[uncut bay]

yeah for sure, war stories would've been perfect for the world they built

[brittle forge]

Campaign would have been as dogshit as HZ in all likelihood tbh

[meager lion]

and i think renewal i prefere renewal as well because it feels smaller

[pearl zenith]

wdym? A campaign is more playable than a mode that barely have players

[pulsar olive]

So i killed 14 people in rush
but weekly challenge counting 0
is this a bug?

[pearl zenith]

yes

[uncut bay]

i think that even if they had more time and didn't mess up the game, a campaign would've been preferable to HZ

[brittle forge]

Like I don’t necessarily disagree but given the dev problems I don’t think they would have been able to make a good campaign

[meager lion]

yeah seen it alot on reddit

campain would feel like a running sim

[silk surge]

Halo Infinite is reaching its third season and 2042 is months away from its first season.

[meager lion]

not months probably 2 or 3

[brittle forge]

I also don’t think BF has had a campaign worth playing since BC2, maaaaybe BF3

[uncut bay]

halo infinite hasn't even started season 2 lmao, and that's gonna last 6 months. Both games are an embarrassment

[silver mountain]

Where do you talk about bfv

[meager lion]

thats less then 10 or so

[velvet sand]

Infinite is still in a very rough spot right now and their community isn't too happy either. IMO not as bad as things are with DICE/2042, but 343/H:I has plenty of their own issues.

[pearl zenith]

If battlefield 2042 got delayed and it released just like after 4.0 we could be in S1 rn

[echo yew]

Infinite tanked just as much as 2042

[meager lion]

no

[echo yew]

shit was fuckin FREE.

[meager lion]

its not good enough for beta

[brittle forge]

Tbf it’s not like Halo is swimming in content. 343 is getting flamed up the ass for how lacking the live service has been

[uncut bay]

infinite did better on release since it actually had good things going for it, the multiplayer was solid and the campaign was okay when it released, but people are now feeling the effects of zero content and a live service game not receiving any live service

[echo yew]

The new camo is actually horrible

like holy fuck it’s ugly

[velvet sand]

at least it's a universal skin and easy to get

[edgy oriole]

I like it. i put it on my ntw

[uncut bay]

i don't think it's horrible, it's just not particularly interesting

[edgy oriole]

and its not hex

[brittle forge]

It’s just another snow camo in a game where the one snow map is the worst one in the game

It’s not bad but we’ve gotten so many snow skins for some reason

[uncut bay]

exposure will probably be a snow map, so they might just be easing us into it

a bit of a stretch tho, i'll admit

[pearl zenith]

I don't like the current snow map we have

[echo yew]

Breakaway is too large and open… like every single one of the maps except manifest and maybe orbital

[pearl zenith]

orbital is decent

[white geyser]

Not doing the challenge, I’m busy doing vs zombies in the portal

[brittle forge]

Discarded’s ok

[uncut bay]

yeah breakaway was gonna be cool, the biggest map, wooo, except it's mostly unused and not worth being that big at all

[echo yew]

Only half of it is, the rest is ass

[pearl zenith]

E1 objective in breakaway is stupid

[echo yew]

Breakaway is large for the sake of being large, but holy shit a 2kmx2km ?

[brittle forge]

Same thing happened to Bandar Desert back in the day it was marketed as “the biggest Battlefield map ever made” and it was a snoozefest

[uncut bay]

yeah lol, i was expecting the next damavand peak but instead everyone forgets it even exists

[brittle forge]

Tbh Bandar Desert in this game might actually play pretty well with 128 players

[echo yew]

Breakaway would be fine if it was at most 1.5km biggest distance and had actual flow between objectives

And actual cover

[hollow pebble]

put the tv missile in the regular game ya dummies

[brittle forge]

Honestly I hated the tv missile in BF4. I would always get one-shot sniped in a helicopter by some lvl 140 asshole across the map

I don’t hate the principle of the gadget but when everyone had one and was good with it, playing in any non-jet became insufferable

[pearl zenith]

You know I always wondered why didn't make a featured game mode that disables specialist that way the community would be happy if they don't end up removing specialists from the game

[velvet sand]

kek, 2042 coming to Game Pass next month, RIP those of us who paid full price. Stupid decision either way, it's too early for this (game needs more work to actually retain players) and it misses out on benefitting from that GP boost in players at the start of S1. What the hell is DICE/EA thinking -_-

Not mad it's coming to GP specifically by any means, more just annoyed at the dumb timing.

[pearl zenith]

Perhaps they wanted to profit as much as possible from the game and the hype

[brittle forge]

“Players at any cost” is what they’re thinking

[velvet sand]

But it's shortsighted and stupid. Why try to bring in players while the game is still in a very rough state and struggling to retain players? Why not wait until it's received another update or two, specifically when there's new content and the monetization has actually started with S1?

[heavy linden]

they probably think the latest update saved the game

and that its ready for new content and many many many many many transactions

[brittle forge]

I mean you’re asking why the company that thought gameplay ruining TTK patches for Christmas noobs two years in a row for BFV is short-sighted.

I don’t know why m8, they just kinda are unfortunately

[slate meadow]

Howdy fellow 2042 enjoyers what's the latest on games news

Uuurm have you got a steam update sometimes that happens if your haven't updated the game through the steam page

[thick copper]

there is no update

[slate meadow]

Depends when he last updated the game

A dude had the same.issue in this discord like 4-5 days ago

[thick copper]

either update happens automatically or theres a really obvious icon telling you theres an update

[slate meadow]

Well it's a thing that happens so do what you will with that information

[thick copper]

when it comes to this game its more things that dont happen

[silk surge]

I got most assists by using attack heli lmao. My passenger guy was fucking insane.

39 assists, that dude knew how to use a 30mm

[slate meadow]

Or was hacking

[silk surge]

On PS5?

[edgy oriole]

[slate meadow]

Was he on ps5 ?

[thick copper]

were they sitting on a ps5 whilst using a ps5?

[full crater]

need +1

[silk surge]

Well yeah, I never turn on crossplay

[opal cedar]

39 assist is decent

[slate meadow]

Can't keep up with pc players ayy 😉

[silk surge]

I also got 48 kills myself, but my passenger seat guy carried us more or less.

[slate meadow]

Oh urm maybe delete cache and retry

[slate meadow]

Numbers like that mean nothing without crossplay on 😂 😂

[silk surge]

.... Why not?

[cyan jacinth]

You are right

[slate meadow]

Only real men play with crossplay on your playing with children 😉

[forest snow]

Woo new PC ready to try 2042 on

[slate meadow]

Wait actually that sounds really bad 🤣

[subtle birch]

[cyan jacinth]

[silk surge]

Nah, turning crossplay on leads you to lobbies where everyone is long range camping. Console lobbies are a lot more close quarters.

[slate meadow]

What console you on bro?

[edgy oriole]

share with the class whatchu get

[subtle birch]

This shit is $60-70? Has to go down to 20

[cyan jacinth]

To 10

[silk surge]

I went to a store recently, and saw that 2042 was at $20.

[forest snow]

I9 12900k 32gb DDR5 RAM 3080ti 1200 PSU

[silk surge]

Sweden

[slate meadow]

You just don't have the cojones to play with the big boys 😋

[edgy oriole]

when i upgraded to 12700k i thought about upgrading to ddr5 but its too new for me i think. ill prolly get it the next time i upgrade.

[silk surge]

I've played with crossplay on before lol. It's not some major league gaming going on there. I just feel like the gameplay flow is a lot better with console only.

[slate meadow]

I bought it for pc for £19.99 so wasn't to bad of a price

[slate meadow]

You wouldn't be doing 48 kills and 37 assists on crossplay either that or I'm shit

[edgy oriole]

bye bye

[cyan jacinth]

Same

[silk surge]

Here's a scoreboard from a crossplay on game.

[forest snow]

Yea a few people I know did that was due a upgrade was using a 2070 super and i9 700k

[edgy oriole]

dead game reinstall 3 times cant find lobby

[subtle birch]

Quite literally

[slate meadow]

Doubt

[edgy oriole]

that was literally my setup. i kept the 2070super tho.

[forest snow]

Super worked well tbh surprising given its below the recommended specs

[silk surge]

Here's another one

That one is hard to read, but its 80 kills 28 deaths 45 assists.

[edgy oriole]

yeah thats why i decided to keep the super. i doesnt seem right cost/upgrade for me. i may get 40 series when it drops tho. idk yet

[slate meadow]

How many are against au at the start be honest ?

[forest snow]

Good luck getting one ha 30 should drop in price briefly before 40 series

[silk surge]

At peak times, almost none.

Which is the only time when I play.

[plucky pebble]

Ooof

[low timber]

Oh damn, destroyed an attack heli with two people inside using the Kornet TOW launcher.

[wide shore]

Console players are more than competitive against PC players in this game.

[arctic grove]

TOW missle needs a buff tbh. Its weak and useless

[wide shore]

I average 20-40 kills per game with crossplay on.

[low timber]

Yeah, it can’t look up very much and when I shot 3 rockets at a breakable wall, the wall was still intact.

[arctic grove]

MAV would be OP if they fixed the TOW missile. Hopefully it gets patched next update

[low timber]

But I did destroy a wildcat with 3 rockets.

Oh, you meant the vehicle ones, thought you meant the stationary ones found on Caspian Border.

But yeah, those vehicle ones are weak as well.

[arctic grove]

oops yeah i meant the vehicle ones lol

[low timber]

But MBT with decent TOW would just mow down every other vehicle tho, especially if you also have the mortar pod which also deals quite a lot of damage to vehicles.

[arctic grove]

im foing to download bf4 again
ama

[edgy oriole]

[frigid cairn]

what sauce do you eat with your chicken tendies

[hard plume]

Wow, the most amazing thing happened to me in a game rn

I…..I heard someone using voip

[velvet sand]

It's nice! As long as they're not on an open mic eating a 4-course meal, with mom screaming in the background while vacuuming, and a heard of chihuahua's hyped up on coke having a riot in the background. I just wish muting players with open mics was a bit easier : |

[mental cave]

ranch

people are actually using VOIP?

[tame cobalt]

Can they get johann soderqvist back for the next bf ost?

[velvet sand]

No, you'll get some people hitting metal pipes with hammers and scratching nails on chalkboards to recreate the sounds of your computer crashing and you'll like it.

[tame cobalt]

[edgy oriole]

jesper kyd for next bf ost

[abstract scroll]

Hi Guys can anyone help me

BF 2042 voice over IP I am on xbox series x my friend is on PC I can hear them they can't hear me our settings are fine any ideas ?

[edgy oriole]

is your voip switched on in settings? ive seen a few people that has had your problem and their voip wasnt on.

[hard plume]

Or just use discord

[abstract scroll]

Yeah my voice over ip is on

[pearl zenith]

It's probably a bug honestly, is it fine when you are talking to someone on xbox?

[runic prism]

I miss the big hype when that first bf2042 trailer dropped . This game was going to be the best battlefield and was the cod killer. It failed somewhere . This game deserves more !! i hope that they fix a lot of things that people hate and i hope that they make the game a bit like bf3/bf4 in terms of gameplay and maps . Like the specialists the most hated thing and the big open maps and the irritating specialist voices. But Dice will do it hopefully . It’s just a matter of time ⏱

[agile trail]

Fortnite battlepass

[agile trail]

You r lost in your own delusion

[edgy oriole]

cant be cod killer bc its not the same type of game

[velvet sand]

"X game killer" is the most deadbrained shit to begin with

[agile trail]

Bf has the better multiplayer but cod has the better campaign

U can't call it a game killer if its only better at one of the things and not the better one at everything

[velvet sand]

"game killers" don't exist to begin with

[gray comet]

Bro have you ever put honey mustard and bbq together

It is like otherwordly you have to try it

[radiant prism]

I'm so close to Falck T1

[velvet sand]

shoot more people with health darts

[gray comet]

I think I’m at nearly 3/4 of Casper T1, I just want the headgear

[edgy oriole]

i t1 casper in 14 hours

[radiant prism]

am doing

Only 29 left to go, should get it this game

[shy latch]

for some reason this year every game was meant to be a killer of another game......I don't know why it was supposed t be a serial killer year

[gray comet]

How?

[edgy oriole]

drone spot whole game every game

[gray comet]

Breakthrough 128p matches? I would do those but my game runs like constipated shit.

And that’s when doing nothing but droning. Harder now that the drone’s range got halved.

[edgy oriole]

yeah i only play bt 128 no matter what. unless a weekly tells me to play something else.

[velvet sand]

"My BRAND is better than your BRAND and my BRAND is totes gonna kill your BRAND because I personally identify with BRAND and tie my self-image and mental health to the success of my BRAND, especially in comparison to the failure of your BRAND"

[agile trail]

Go on edge u tell him

[gray comet]

Yeah if I’m lucky I can get ~160 spots, and that’s on manifest bt 128

For whatever reason 160 is the hard upper limit that it wont go past, I honestly have no clue why

[slate meadow]

Is there anyway of making sure I don't get out into none EU servers I just got out into a game with 300ping

[edgy oriole]

sounds bad but people dont really pay attention to minimap so the only tip i can give is go where all the fighting is and dont worry about enemy flanking your teammates and youre trying to help them. ive wasted so much time trying to help teammates and they just run straight into them and die.

[edgy oriole]

idk ive been having questionable servers too i feel like since it deletes servers when games ending that some servers just come up bad. i could be wrong tho bc i dont know anything about game servers.

[glass patio]

is it possible to get more than 50 fps yet?

[wet sedge]

i do

[agile trail]

@glass patio what's ur discord server about

[glass patio]

what files did you change to do that?

[glass patio]

sex cult

[wet sedge]

i mean i dont play it on pc

[agile trail]

Intriguing

[glass patio]

oh makes sense

[wet sedge]

have it on the series s

runs smooth

[agile trail]

@glass patio I joined where is the sex

[velvet sand]

Usually getting 80+fps on my rig with nearly maxed out settings at 2K resolution (3070/i5-10600k)

[summer wing]

Yeah the Series X/S and PS5 runs better than the One and PS4 version

[wet sedge]

oh yeah for sure

[summer wing]

Also apparently 2042 is coming to Game Pass?

[wet sedge]

recoil and mechanics on last gen feel so clunky

[velvet sand]

Yes, in May. For some reason that makes no sense.

[wet sedge]

oh shit bet

[summer wing]

I don’t really mind it tbh

[wet sedge]

more players

[summer wing]

Cause I brought the Ultimate Edition

[wet sedge]

so why not

[velvet sand]

More players is good, but doing it this early vs. when S1 starts feels totally pointless.

Wait for the May QoL/bugfix patch. Get the June content patch/S1 out, then do gamespass and kick off marketing when the game has a better chance of actually retaining players.

[wise totem]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJ3N_2r6R-o

oh makes sense give me $3000 so i can get the same parts:)

[radiant prism]

Done

[wet sedge]

sheesh

[radiant prism]

top tier photo quality too apparently

[low solar]

Why do people take pictures of their monitor and not just screen shot lol

[whole plume]

So I got some big ass subs I'm sitting at 2600 watts and there wired up right next to my wall shit shook my house so bad my ceiling fan downstairs literally collapsed 💀💀

[wet sedge]

sounds lit

[whole plume]

My neighbors hate me for sure

[low timber]

On PC, no idea. On Console, it’s way faster that taking a screenshot, uploading it, downloading it and then posting it.

[cedar turtle]

my camera only takes selfies

[radiant prism]

because I don't actually know how to take a screenshot on this computer

its not my home computer so i am therefore dumb

[edgy oriole]

windows + shift + S

[low solar]

Ima be real man
Other computers become foreign to me as well lol

[placid echo]

Your graphics card might also have a screenshot hotkey

[velvet sand]

But that's INSIDE THE COMPUTER!

[placid echo]

nice.

[velvet sand]

https://giphy.com/gifs/news-snapchat-regards-1eVyNOFMq7BnO

awwww, it won't embed

[radiant prism]

I mean I usually play from my college's esports lounge so I don't own the computer I use lol

I mean I have my laptop but that has a dedicated hotkey so its not a problem there

[soft swallow]

0.4.0 basically nerfed very well the op weapons... Except for one category, the smg. They make all gunplay unplayable, all with this fucking MP9 doing incredible damage and literally recoil-free, with sniper precision, the PP29 has been fixed, same for the PBX, but for the K30 and MP9 it's still there. a little something that makes me turn up my nose, using these two weapons myself I noticed that they are still too strong

[wide shore]

Guns with insane ROF have always, and probably will always be a problem in BF games

[soft swallow]

Yes but if I can afford it when I played Battlefield V in summer 2021 I didn't encounter many gunplay problems (Despite having about 50 more weapons than in 2042)

What then seriously, I think those are now the only two weapons relieved since the rest seems quite fine to me, both using all the weapons and seeing the other enemies use them

[radiant prism]

I think people forget that Good ≠ OP. The MP9 and K30 are excellent up close and even in to the closer side of mid range, but beyond that they rapidly start to lose to the ARs. They excel at their intended range, and that’s about it

Something being strong doesn’t necessarily mean it’s OP.

I do agree that the K30 is up there with the stronger weapons, but I don’t consider them game breaking

[soft swallow]

No that's not all, SMGs do a lot of damage (which is fair being SMGs) the problem is that the MP9 and K30 have too high a range, too low recoil, and accuracy beyond exaggerated.

And I can assure you that even real smgs have a rather difficult stability to maintain so it doesn't make any sense

[obsidian zinc]

wow...

[soft swallow]

Being that I can kill every enemy with the M5A3 except those who use the K30 or the MP9, or when I have used the MP9 or the K30 and I have noticed that I have had a lot of kills and very few deaths, I asked myself a few questions

Having said that, I actually think I don't have to add anything else simply hoping that even a minimum of nerf will be given to these 2 weapons, because simply by criticizing them they do not repair themselves by magic

[wide shore]

Only thing they could do is increase damage drop off. Lower their up close damage and they’ll be dead in the water

[lyric solar]

Anyone know how to fix the in game music from not playing? I have a bug (or at least I think it’s a bug, unless they legit removed lobby music) where non of its playing. The only in game music that plays is the ambience that plays towards the end of a game.

[arctic grove]

You are lucky. the ending ambience is the only good music

[radiant prism]

It’s a widespread bug I think, I have it too.

Also completely random but I love your PFP @lyric solar

[frigid cairn]

isn't that how chick-fil-a sauce got invented

And another one

https://mobile.twitter.com/temporyal/status/1520010012898197505?cxt=HHwWgoCsnbXDlJgqAAAA

Honestly though, specialists need skin options like the ones in the title card on the right

And also, the game should add funny M4A1, PEQs and magnifying optics so I can run tacticool M4 load out

Like the dude on the left of the right title card has

[lyric solar]

Oh thanks!

[arctic grove]

MP7 has entered the chat

[lyric solar]

Tbh (unpopular opinion) I like the music in the game lol

[velvet sand]

Someone has to : P

[radiant prism]

I don’t love the music, but some of it is starting to grow on me

Juuuuuust a little bit

[lyric solar]

Right, like I like kaleidoscopes theme. Observation of beautiful forms I think it’s called. But whatever. Hopefully it gets fixed soon. Also I just tried out rush 2042, it’s really really fun.

[arctic grove]

Manifest theme

[lyric solar]

Tbh that one sounds cool at some parts too

My favorite is “when does a country stop being a country.” I don’t know where it plays in the game, but it sounds really cool to me

[arctic grove]

2042s soundtrack hit the dot when it comes to being related to the games story and all that, I think what people want is just the bf1 choir again

[velvet sand]

I don't want a choir necessarily, but to me the soundtrack legit sounded like my computer bricking. Like, I freaked out multiple times before disabling it. Definitely not my cup-o-tea.

[arctic grove]

Everyone says that and I still have no clue which track you’re all talking about

[velvet sand]

I don't know names heh, just whatever was playing while in menus and loading into matches.

[radiant prism]

I think my favorite is Breakaway. That ominous “bwwaaaAAAAA” is just chilling to me, pun only partially intended

[lyric solar]

Yeah the dystopian near future world.

[radiant prism]

I do think people would appreciate some more conventional soundtracks though. There’s nothing as memorable as in other soundtracks in this one besides maybe the main theme, which it should be anyways

[arctic grove]

That’s true

[tranquil turtle]

banging on trash can lids is a little too dystopian

[arctic grove]

That’s just a good set of drums

[arctic grove]

Seems appropriate for this game

[plucky pebble]

So thats why they made it like trash huh

[tepid agate]

Bf1 sound tracks told stories. So deep.

[cyan trout]

According to reddit...gamepass in a week

[tepid agate]

Player numbers should rise again

[cedar turtle]

they said the same thing about the south

[whole plume]

Sometimes to do the nae nae you must become one with the nae within the nae

[cedar turtle]

omg, yas queen

[whole plume]

-master oogway

[radiant prism]

Profound

Truly profound

[cedar turtle]

All I can say is, yaaaaaaasssss

[whole plume]

When I die I want a master oogway quote on my fucking grave stone

Nah actually I wanna be cremated and my ashes put in a custom made oogway urn

[tepid agate]

https://youtu.be/dwiDdbTklio this has a Lord of the Rings vibe but that comment is deep "the last ww1 veteran died 2012 Florence Green. They are all gone, but not forgotten, don't let them be".

They could have also played this track after BFV.

End of an era 🥲

[whole plume]

I'm joking

[gray comet]

It sounds tense and dire at the end of the match, like there’s no time and you have to do what you can

[willow sky]

especially when its a close round, thats where it really starts kicking in

[gray comet]

yes

excellent soundtrack for that, like Manifest in the rain, when its like 100 tickets from the end of the match and you're tied, its great

[lyric solar]

It definitely fits in for the vibe of the game and sounds fantastic while playing. But doesn’t sound pleasant to listen to stand-alone all the time like on Spotify or anything.

[gray comet]

Nope

[onyx mica]

omg they finally have stats? for bf 2042 omg

time to go back to war

Admin! We have a code orange emergency!!!

[idle relic]

Boris players are the lowest skilled players in the game.

Haha turret go brrrrr

[mild sorrel]

what can I do to make this game to run better ;_;

[thick copper]

this coming from a dozer

[opal prism]

Yeah man, better check them out just to be sure. Good chance of dying

Console players have the lowest iq in the game .

They do some questionable things

[arctic grove]

ConsOLe plAyers

[velvet sand]

Oh shit, that's almost gamer bingo.

[bitter skiff]

lol

[lyric atlas]

I'm on my way

[lyric atlas]

they almost certainly have a lower average iq, but that's just how it goes when they're an easier to adopt product with higher population.

[tepid agate]

Oh I play on ps5 ☠️

[arctic grove]

Same

[radiant prism]

I was on XSX until I switched to PC recently

[arctic grove]

I have a PC but all my friends are on PS so I stay on that

[hexed mango]

@edgy oriole you still up?

[copper fulcrum]

Are you still up?

[hexed mango]

no

[copper fulcrum]

Am I still up?

[hexed mango]

sometimes

[upbeat sand]

what are the weekly mission quests

[forest snow]

Ugh need season 1 nowww

[copper fulcrum]

Kill in Rush, do damage with primary weapons and resupply people with ammo.

[tropic geyser]

do we know what Season 1 is gonna be?

[cyan trout]

Loads of skins

[white geyser]

Summer in June

[tropic geyser]

so nothing

[cyan trout]

Probably the potato variant

[fervent grotto]

I honestly stopped caring about the summer update a long time ago

[white geyser]

If there’s a map has ocean and you can go on the water, I want the AA tank to float on water just like back in BF4

[fervent grotto]

We’ve received no news like we were promised, and I feel like this game is doomed to fail. I’m just trying to stall myself for MW2 at this point

[white geyser]

Just want to float on water in BF 2042 until season 1 is here

Season 1 update better arrived in the 1st week of June

[fervent grotto]

I’ve been having so much fun playing BfV and vanguard lately. Idk why but sometimes I just get temptations to play past shooter games

[white geyser]

🛠️🧰

I don’t feel like waiting for another battlefield game not until they fix 2042 and add the ones we want

[uncut bay]

New specialist, one map, some weapons, and probably lots of mtx

[fervent grotto]

Wow. So much content

[uncut bay]

Just making sure people are getting accurate info

[cyan trout]

Track record for meeting their own deadlines hasn't been great

[white geyser]

April is almost done, May is coming but y’all better wait a little bit longer until June summer for season 1 update

[fervent grotto]

Oh I’m not blaming you or anything. But if that’s what we’re actually getting than we’re entirely screwed

[fervent grotto]

Yeah just wait 2 more months for a update that was promised way earlier

[glossy storm]

I'm pretty sure they never announced S1 to release earlier than this summer.

In fact, till that point, there was nothing officially said regarding S1 content.

[cyan trout]

I just hope there are more skins and a store front 🤞

[sleek remnant]

why is my weekly progression not tracked?
I'm sure I've killed enemies & resupply teammates in 2042 rush, yet no progression being recorded

[opal prism]

Big balls

[arctic grove]

conquest flashback is just mmmmmmmm

[oak python]

Anyone on Ps5?

[violet otter]

Maybe enough to fill a lobby

[oak python]

@violet otter what’s your ps name

[weak ingot]

Do rush kills count for weekly yet (in OCE)?

[oak python]

battlefield should bring back the CLAN TAGS 🏷.. if you agree type “yes”

[uncut bay]

They initially said it would begin in early 2022

@glossy storm

[barren crater]

The game has been doomed , its a steaming pile of shit

[vale pier]

When are we getting input based matchmaking or console only crossplay?

[grizzled whale]

https://tenor.com/view/no-bugs-bunny-nope-gif-14359850

[grizzled whale]

who promised news of what when and where?

[tall finch]

i think the next bf2042 map should be set in a huge metropolitan city full of skyscrapers, for example mumbai: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zq9OkivIiqI&ab_channel=BrainWing

[grizzled whale]

no

[tall finch]

just imagine if we had that map in bf2042

[grizzled whale]

we need flatmap

[tall finch]

i was hoping hourglass would fulfill that but apparently its just sand dunes

and also it will scratch the itches of heli pilots hating stingers

there are many cities to choose from but i think mumbai will be the best since its so overcrowded with tiny roads full of cars (to slow land vehicles) and 80% of the city being full of skyscrapers (to annoy heli/jet pilots): https://media.istockphoto.com/photos/moonrise-over-south-central-mumbai-the-financial-capital-of-india-a-picture-id1215791152?b=1&k=20&m=1215791152&s=170667a&w=0&h=FPGSNIPhkixp5QoPZooYO42OcvFbVmnGjy-DbMdvwYI=

and it would be a hugemap with lots of cover focused on infantry, when have we last had that in BF? op metro/locker is a good choice but those are relatively small

[uncut bay]

dawnbreaker?

i'd also like a crowded map like that, could allow for interesting air and infantry fights alike

[tall finch]

yeah, somewhat dawnbreaker style but with SMALLER roads and MORE skyscrapers with more lights

[uncut bay]

i thought that's what hourglass was gonna be, but alas, it's just desert

[tall finch]

after seeing some pics of mumbai, it seems to be the perfect pick

[uncut bay]

could be for sure

we know india is fucked after the climate catastrophes

so a battle there wouldn't be out of place

[tall finch]

well most of mumbai would be underwater by 2042

so maybe the big levolution can be a flood almost flooding everything making only the high-risers areas to fight in

[dusky blade]

MW2 is going to follow the same fate sadly

Just another MW19

[tall finch]

i agree

when u release the same game every year you are BOUND to die

[uncut bay]

which is why it's good that cod will stop having yearly releases. Hopefully that'll allow the quality of games to increase

[dusky blade]

They aren’t doing it for the quality of your games

[tall finch]

i just looked up and mumbai has more skyscrapers and is more developed than Doha, ironically placed in a developing country

[dusky blade]

It’s because they screwed the cycle up so badly they literally don’t have any games to release

[clear quail]

not necessarily, cuz half of the indian sub-continent is a plateau

[uncut bay]

well we know battles have occurred in india and we know that the situation is dire

through the nopat journey or whatever

[tall finch]

slight issue: mumbai would be underwater by then

[uncut bay]

do we know how much sea levels rose?

[tall finch]

i dunno but mumbai is sinking by quite a bit, im pretty sure the bondro warli sea-link would be underwater by 2030

[uncut bay]

hm, well there are plenty of other big cities with skyscrapers

[tall finch]

yeah but for some reason all the other ones have big clean roads for tanks to easily roll through and farm infantry

mumbai has lots of skyscrapers AND SMALL ROADS FOR LAND VEHICLES TO HAVE A HARD TIME

where can you find worse roads than in india?

[urban mango]

Quick question I've been playing 2042 for 3 weeks now and couple days ago I am having issues it the game either hang or its closing. initially I thought it was software or drivers related. so updated drivers and all still having the same issues.

[tall finch]

whats ur specs

[noble juniper]

Shit game

Waste of my valuable money

[urban mango]

5900x + 64 gb ram + rx6900xt

[noble juniper]

How's tab opening experience?

[tall finch]

im having fun with it, if the games fun i dont mind

[urban mango]

which tab?

[noble juniper]

I'll wait until they improve the game

[noble juniper]

Chrome tabs

[tall finch]

its fun, 128 players, wingsuits, tornadoes

[urban mango]

all closed nothig running in my background

[tall finch]

huge maps, less sweaty community than the older BFs

[dusky blade]

Man everyone in my matches used to jump shot constantly before I quit

[urban mango]

all closed nothing running in my background

[dusky blade]

The movement was so sweaty that alone was a turn off

[tall finch]

idc if the game "isnt a battlefield" or "is too boring", if its fun its fine by me, the purpose of a game is for entertainment and bf2042 does that job just fine

[noble juniper]

I want they really really improve it, so it can become better, better destruction, better gameplay, more optimized, and more gun, i would buy it

That game could be better than vanguard

[tall finch]

im rooting for more content because current amount of content is boring me

[dusky blade]

The game is going to be canned next June, don’t count on it

And that year of content is going to be minimal

[tall finch]

vanguard is so bad its already better than vanguard, hell 2042 is interesting and has some new gameplay opportunities, vanguard is just the SAME GAME FOR 3 YEARS

[silk surge]

The game is miles better than Vanguard, but that's a low bar.

[noble juniper]

I wish they remake bf2042

[tall finch]

the worst BF games outperform the worst cods

[noble juniper]

Agree

[dusky blade]

Well vanguard literally is just MW19

[urban mango]

i agree with this.

[tall finch]

i really want a remake of bf2042

[noble juniper]

Cod vanguard is mediocre shit

[grizzled whale]

Bro, stop saying that, it literally isnt

[dusky blade]

Literally is

[grizzled whale]

no its not

[tall finch]

bf2042's loading screen music + insertion flows + gunplay + HUD + bf4 = masterpiece

[dusky blade]

Same mechanics my dude, mp is 100% the same

[noble juniper]

Agree

[silk surge]

They should remake 2042 in PORTAL

[noble juniper]

And good campaign like bfbc2

[dusky blade]

BC2 was awesome

[noble juniper]

Best campaign

[grizzled whale]

already told you this several times, the mechanics arent the same, they are very similar, but worse

[dusky blade]

Okay but it’s 90% the same

[grizzled whale]

no

[dusky blade]

Since you’re saying it’s super slightly different

[tall finch]

BF2042 brought my expectations to the sky, dice/ea put it to the ground, vanguard put my expectations to the ground, activison brought a shovel

[noble juniper]

Battlefield portal is good

[grizzled whale]

very similar =/= super slightly different

[uncut bay]

stale and boring, don't know what people see in bc2's campaign

[noble juniper]

It's my favorite

[grizzled whale]

vanguard literally feels completely different from MW2019 gameplay wise

[dusky blade]

Can you explain why and what made to that way

[noble juniper]

Idk about you but cod always have the best campaign

[uncut bay]

no contest, out of the two it's always been cod that has better campaigns

[dusky blade]

Oh yeah for sure

[grizzled whale]

Because ALL the mechanics feel different, the movement feels faster, the gunplay is different, etc etc

[tall finch]

cod = good campaigns DOGSHIT MP | bf = worst campaigns of all time, best MP of all time

[grizzled whale]

the only thing they have in common is shoot at enemy

[tall finch]

your being sarcastic right?

[noble juniper]

Cod campaign is better than battlefield but battlefield have better large scale battle, cod tried copy it and called it ground war

[dusky blade]

Movement is faster, true, guess you’ll be upset with MWII then because it’s said to have the same fast movement

[noble juniper]

Mw2019 ground war is most shameful ripoff ever

[grizzled whale]

didnt say faster movement is bad

[noble juniper]

They try copy battlefield

[grizzled whale]

And i wont be able to play mw2 2022 anyway

[dusky blade]

And everything else is the same
Movement mechanics, gunsmith, levelling, same ui, hud, field upgrades, perks, camo system

Like sure it’s different in some ways, but most of it is just redone with different colours and fonts

You aren’t buying MWII 2022?

[pulsar ingot]

Anyone know why I played this game for the first time in weeks and my display area is completely fucked

[noble juniper]

Idk

[grizzled whale]

im not, because ill be instantly banned

[pulsar ingot]

I cant even see most of my hud cuz it cuts off and i already have my console display area at minimum so it cant go any smaller

So is there a way to adjust in in game or am I stuck with dogshit hud

[tall finch]

you can

[pulsar ingot]

How

[noble juniper]

Battlefield 5 still looks realistic

[tall finch]

change your screen space area

[pulsar ingot]

Is there a way to do that in game cuz my console display area is already at minimum

[tall finch]

ur on console?

[pulsar ingot]

Ye

[tall finch]

https://tenor.com/view/rip-rest-in-peace-statement-gif-23003820

[pulsar ingot]

My hud is fucked i cant even see half of it

Nah u know what fuck this dogshit game

Im done

[tall finch]

what are you gonna play now? play COD and get owned by toxic b-hoppers with pink neon anime mg-42 going at 500kmph

[pulsar ingot]

Nope

[tall finch]

play the older BF games and get smashed by vehicle whores who stay in vehicles all day?

[soft swallow]

Battlefield 4 campaing bro

[opal cedar]

of what

[tall finch]

and sweats?

[pulsar ingot]

Ima j play dbd

[tall finch]

the hell is dbd

[opal cedar]

dead by daylight

[pulsar ingot]

Dead by daylight

[tall finch]

oh that

[uncut bay]

bro even ghosts campaign was better than bf4, dice just can't do good campaigns (compared to cod)

[opal cedar]

good game to play with friends

[pulsar ingot]

Its way better than any battlefield or cod thats come out in the past 5 years

#2042isworsethanbf5

[opal cedar]

cod mw19 is the best game

but people suck at it and find excuses to dislike it

[tall finch]

its so fun that i love getting killed by toxic b-hoppers with an anime pink skin MG42 with pink tracers while they run at 500mph

[opal cedar]

best fast paced shooter game

[opal cedar]

ur just bad bro no wonder

[pine roost]

Cough cough titanfall 2

[tall finch]

yadayadayada, mw19 is less fun than bf2042 because its community is so sweaty and toxic

[pulsar ingot]

I dont even play cod anymore its dogshit but i might start playing at again cuz at least i can see my fucking hud

[tall finch]

bf2042 atleast has a playerbase that isnt sweaty

[opal cedar]

stick to battlefield if you don’t have a good mechanism

[tall finch]

stick to cod with ur anime pink MG42's and the same game getting shoved in your mouth every year if you dont like large-scale battles with ACTUAL DEATHS IN THE SCOREBOARD

[pulsar ingot]

I would but i cant see my fucking hud and apparently theres no way to fix it since my screen display area is already at the minimum setting

So im pretty much fucked

[tall finch]

play the older BFs then

[uncut bay]

bold statement considering 2042 only just got a scoreboard 6 months after release

[opal cedar]

reset settings

[pulsar ingot]

Like what? BFV? 😂😂😂

[pulsar ingot]

Already did

[pine roost]

Well if pe paid for 2042 pe should be able to play it

[opal cedar]

get good

[tall finch]

like BF1, bf4, bf3

[tall finch]

your just proving the toxicity of the cod community

[opal cedar]

bf2042 doesn’t even have a smooth movement mechanics like mw19

[pulsar ingot]

Every game has toxicity in the community yes even ur precious battlefield

[opal cedar]

hows that toxic bro ur just shit

[pine roost]

What part of the hud doesnt exist? Like any at all? And on what console?

[tall finch]

smooth? buddy if you speed up everything by 500x everything can be smooth

[tall finch]

but cod and FIFA have the most toxic

[opal cedar]

bf42 doesnt feel so fast paced

[pulsar ingot]

Fr it feels hella clunky so much for a "nExT gEnErAtIoN" game

[plucky pebble]

hmm compared to?

[pulsar ingot]

And Fortnite

[opal cedar]

u cant even slide and standup within a second

[tall finch]

what do you expect everyone to be? 300mph marathon champions?

[opal cedar]

idk if its slow or just buggy as hell

[tall finch]

buddy this is battlefield

every battlefield is like that, get used to it, slide and standup within a second irl with like 10kgs of equipment on you

[opal cedar]

they copy paste mw19 mechanics bro wym

[plucky pebble]

💀

[tall finch]

they literally only COPIED THE TAC SPRINT

[opal cedar]

still

thats 80% of the mechanics

[pulsar ingot]

2042 honestly feels like a large scale mw2019 but with ps2 graphics and 15 fps

[opal cedar]

someone needs to complain at the feedback about the movement mechanics shit is buggy

[tall finch]

actually the movement mechanics are: Running, Sprinting, Vaulting, Climbing, and Sliding, sprinting only makes 20%

[pulsar ingot]

The whole game is dogshit they should j scrap it and move on

[opal cedar]

i need my money back then

[pine roost]

Mechanics in battlefield past bf4 is basically purely positioning based, or using movement to get to spots that are better positioning (high wall vaulting, ledge grabbing etc)

[tall finch]

if they do that AND GIVE THE MONEY BACK it will kill the franchise, they just gotta make bf2042 have a comeback and then move on to the next game

[opal cedar]

bf4 mechanics felt so unresponsive

[pulsar ingot]

Same here i spent $120 on this dumpster fire

[pine roost]

Bf4 movement mechanics are pog

[opal cedar]

i just gave 30 bucks thats all

[echo ermine]

No content will come with 4 season

[tall finch]

i spent $60 and im having fun so i dont understand all the fuss

[uncut bay]

bf4 movement is really nothing special, it's just there, it works

[tall finch]

if its fun, dont care

[echo ermine]

They are making the gale better

[pulsar ingot]

Well thats what they get for not putting any effort into their games and fucking over the community ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[tall finch]

just out of curiosity whats your fav FPS

[pulsar ingot]

It was battlefield

[opal cedar]

i hope next update they improve the mechanics instead of having few seconds delay after i slide and stand up

[tall finch]

no no im asking your favorite FPS specifically

[opal cedar]

mw22

[pulsar ingot]

Prolly hell let loose

[tall finch]

then you might like bf1

[opal cedar]

i already know the new cod is gonna beat bf42

[hoary gate]

since when was the asval in bf2042? im reinstalling

[opal cedar]

bf4 weapons

[tall finch]

i already know the new cod is gonna be an MW19 with better graphics

[hoary gate]

oh

[pine roost]

You are already stating the next cod as your favourite fps? Have you learned nothing from this game?

[hoary gate]

nvm then, not installing

[pulsar ingot]

Nah dont the game sucks ass still

[opal cedar]

u can play it in bf4 themed game modes

[hoary gate]

the bf devs watching us complain: 🥲

[opal cedar]

if mw19 was already a good franchise game why wouldn’t mw22 be

[tall finch]

i'd rather have a new interesting game every 3 years with massive gameplay opportunities than a SAME GAME RELEASED EVERY YEAR WITH A NEW NAME

[uncut bay]

it's being made on a new engine, so you're already wrong

[hoary gate]

bf2042 cod killer btw

[pulsar ingot]

And it always will this games foundation is literally built on shit

[tall finch]

similarly if BF4 was a good modern-futuristic shooter than why wouldn't BF2042 be good? its also a modern-futuristic shooter

[pine roost]

Because it’s entierly possible that they can mess it up. We thought 2042 would be the great equilizer but look at where we are now

[tall finch]

bf2042 is a cod killer but NEVER A PREVIOUS BF KILLER
