battlefield-2042

[dusty elm]

Agree

[uncut bay]

yeah maybe, but they don't care. They promised a year one pass which didn't come with a release date, people can be pissed but they didn't really do anything wrong or fail to keep a promise

yet

[vale pier]

Make year 1 pass free to everyone and give year 2 pass free to gold / ultimate I say. Seems only right as it will take them a year just to get a working game that even standard edition owners paid for

They could probably revert back to classes this way also. No need to stick with specialist just because of the season pass requires them to

[grizzled whale]

yeah no

you got exactly what you paid for

[vale pier]

[grizzled whale]

And specialists are here to stay, they arent gonna revert to classes

[arctic grove]

I played a game the other day most of not all my team was in one spot and I felt like I was there only one taking points end game I had most points on my team I only had 6 lol

[arctic grove]

Got a idea for classes I’m on Xbox so I use that as my case Move Grenade to top bumper then specialist Gadget to up the assault can have the two rockets and they pick one medic health box support ammo and repair tool on down recon a spot Gadget then guns assault smg assault rifles shotgun medic smg assault rifles support lmg smg and recon dmr snipers just my thoughts 💭

[grizzled whale]

or, no

specialists are fine as is

[arctic grove]

There not

[vale pier]

this dude doesn't realise battlefield is dead and one of those reasons is specialists.

[grizzled whale]

specialist are the tiniest reason 2042 is disliked

[arctic grove]

No

[vale pier]

They can keep specialists, but the game is staying dead

[grizzled whale]

even if the game had classes at launch, the game would be just as dead

[arctic grove]

Most people I no who play battlefield have stoped because of specialist

[uncut bay]

then they're shallow as fuck

[grizzled whale]

no, they stopped playing because the game runs poorly, lacks content, is bugged to all hell and maps are poorly designed

[uncut bay]

the game is littered with issues much greater than just specialists. I don't like specialists but i know that's minor in comparison to the overall state of the game

[grizzled whale]

exactly, specialists are 2042's smallest issue

[arctic grove]

Or they don’t like call of duty and wanted to play a battlefield class base game lol

[grizzled whale]

call of duty has nothing to do with this

they can literally play in the exact same way they played previous battlefield games

[uncut bay]

like i said, if people played this game and singled out specialists as the reason for not playing anymore, then i am really lost for words

[arctic grove]

Dose they got the idea of the specialist from that the top dev was the one from that war zone

[grizzled whale]

they can literally just make 4 classes and set them up as scout, medic, engineer and assault

[grizzled whale]

yeah no, the warzone specialists are purely cosmetic

[arctic grove]

Well I no at least 8 that have gone bk to old battlefield

[grizzled whale]

the only thing they have in common is the name

[arctic grove]

Nope because the classes were limited to weapons you can have any think as these lot

[grizzled whale]

which matters how?

[uncut bay]

some people preferred the game having strict class setups so the game was more uniform

[grizzled whale]

you can literally use specialists to create less restricive classes

[uncut bay]

recognisable classes, weaponry, gadgets, etc.

if you see a scout you know what they'll have on them (to a degree) and can assess how much of a threat they pose

in 2042 there's none of that (other than specialist gadget)

[vale pier]

Which worked so much better

[grizzled whale]

just kill whoever you see

[arctic grove]

Game play

[grizzled whale]

no need to asses a threat when you kill everyone you see

[uncut bay]

you're oversimplifying it

[grizzled whale]

not really, it IS that simple

[vale pier]

nope

[uncut bay]

set classes played an important part in battlefield for many people, and some of them want that back for various reasons

[arctic grove]

100%

[vale pier]

I also don't think "lore" is a good reason to be using the same characters on both teams, just makes things way too messy. I mean, look at hardcore. How can you even tell who enemies are? Just the red LEDs. I know a much better system, it's called team specific characters & camos

[arctic grove]

I play battlefield 2042 got it day one I don’t mind it yes there are more problems then the specialist I do have fun with them as I said keep them but make it so that the weapons are limited to types of specialist

[grizzled whale]

ah yes im gonna look at an enemy to check what skin they have and then decide to kill them or not

instead of instantly spotting red and getting the kill

[vale pier]

Ah yes another well thought out response from angel

[arctic grove]

You can get that angel character with armour medpack and a sniper there not going to move

[dapper berry]

I mean it's a good habit to kill the angel/falcks first

[vale pier]

monkey shoot monkey kill

[uncut bay]

there is more to it than pointing and shooting, if you don't realise that then you've got an awakening coming

[grizzled whale]

i use logic, just because you dont realise that doesnt mean you have to get toxic

[vale pier]

yeah no

[arctic grove]

Some people eyes have problems it’s better to have one side in one type of uniform and the other in a different type plus helps how it look atm we have load of people running around looking the same look so bad

[grizzled whale]

"some people eyes have problems"
so we catering to people with poor eyesight now?

[arctic grove]

Was that the only part of that you got

[uncut bay]

well logically, yes, games should strive to be as accessible as possible lol though i don't think that's necessarily relevant here

[arctic grove]

If you like the specialist you like the specialist every ones entitled to the opinion I don’t mind them I would prefer classes but didn’t get them games getting better hope it be good one day just in my opinion the specialist need some work ie weapons limited to some and there next Focus is the specialist so we will see what they do

[real linden]

Why is the map ALWAYS manifest

[lyric snow]

Merry christmas guys

[foggy halo]

[weak obsidian]

bruh it's May lmao

[uncut bay]

wrong holiday bro

[last swift]

To be more precise, it´s Star Wars Day

[pine roost]

I’m guessing there hasn’t been any info about the next patch right?

I can’t remember if they’ve already stated what this one is going to mainly revolve around

[shy latch]

that's not totally true, LEDs helps to better understand who is enemy; on Monday I played Rush Hardcore (with a friend of mine because he didn't unlocked the weekly mission skin) and on Noshar Canals with BF3 classes from a certain distance was impossible to understand which one was a friend or foe

[shy latch]

if you mean release date: nope, no info atm
if you mean the patch itself: there are few infos on what should be its content

[pine roost]

That’s not season 1 though right? Cause that’s still got a couple months and nothing has been done to hype it up at all

[uncut bay]

no, there's one update this month and then S1 in june/july

[shy latch]

[full burrow]

hey I keep getting one of 2 directx errors when lauching BF (not sure what started it, happenend yesterday), verified files work fine, now today same thing, anything I should do?

[uncut bay]

updated your drivers?

[full burrow]

sorry forget to mention, yeah i checked its all up to date apparently

[uncut bay]

hmm, not sure then. Only thing i can recommend is a reinstall

maybe contact support as well

[grizzled whale]

Manifest best map tho

[full burrow]

alright thanks

lol now its launched fine

maybe it has to have 2 error launches and then it works xD

[real linden]

ima have to disagree

Its better than most but still eh

[shy latch]

manifest and abandoned are the best maps imo (I'm talking about conquest 64p servers), of course they are not perfect but needs only few retouches

[grizzled whale]

Has the best mix of infantry areas, vehicle areas and combinef areas, also one that has plenty of cover

[frank rain]

Server are down I guess

[haughty raft]

oh nooo……

[forest snow]

hourglass and orbital are mine great looking maps.

[shy latch]

about great looking map imo Breakaway is the best considering the lore of the game also, but it needs a lot of work to do in terms of covers

[grizzled whale]

abandoned?\

[shy latch]

yup

[grizzled whale]

you mean discarded?

[shy latch]

maybe....

[grizzled whale]

he means discarded

[uncut bay]

haha i love turrets in hardcore

as if they weren't bad enough in core

[grizzled whale]

you used them?

[uncut bay]

no i get fucking analed by them

[grizzled whale]

dont give into the temptation brother

[uncut bay]

people can hold off entire areas just by putting down turrets and forgetting about them

[grizzled whale]

never use them

[uncut bay]

they need to be nerfed HARD, and possibly removed in hc

[shy latch]

yeah, in english is called Discarded, I translated the name directly from italian to english 😅

[grizzled whale]

ah, makes sense

[grizzled whale]

they need to be disabled in hardcore

or better, disabled entirely

[uncut bay]

also, anybody getting a bug where you die and then can move around as a corpse? Can't respawn until dying again, super annoying

[shy latch]

uhm nope, to me sometimes it happened (before update 4.0) once died were sliding even on flat surfaces for several meters

oh wow, zombie mode

[uncut bay]

yeah that's it, never happened to me before 4.0

[shy latch]

first time I see it

[tall finch]

is it me or does dawnbreaker in bf4 remind me of mumbai

[tall finch]

never happened ever

[silk surge]

Tried Warzone for the first time, it feels like a more polished 2042.

Battlefield has been my only fps for over 10 years, but now I kinda see the argument that 2042 tried to meet trends.

[clear quail]

more cosmetic than battelfield

[silk surge]

That's the bug I was talking about. If you get one-shot through the body, you'll end up in a glitchy downed state where you're both dead and still alive (you can't redeploy).

[grizzled whale]

movement feels trash compared to 2042, balancing is trash, hackers everywhere, map is garbage, but yeah, its polished more than 2042

and thats coming from someone with several thousand hours in warzone

[silk surge]

None of those two games even come close to the god-tier character movements of BFV.

[forest snow]

ew warzone

[silk surge]

Like, have you played any other game where you were able to prone towards any direction? I really really wish BFV movements would've been copy/pasted into 2042.

[forest snow]

yea arma 3

[silk surge]

Wait really?

[fervent grotto]

Eww Arma 3

[silk surge]

I've heard that Arma 3 has a community that is similar to the Battlefield community, but somehow even more elitist.

[fervent grotto]

I wish I could play arma 3 but I don’t have a pc lmao

[forest snow]

no nonsense in that game no sliding around everywhere, no bunny hoping 1 shot your dead

[fervent grotto]

Dude you sound like just about every cod hater I’ve ever heard

[tepid agate]

I may try warzone when that King Kong update hits just to see what it's all about

[fervent grotto]

“None of that silly slide canceling anime girl nonsense”

[silk surge]

Well yeah Arma 3 is a milsim, not an arcade shooter like Battlefield is.

[fervent grotto]

I think it’s gonna be pretty cool.

[forest snow]

and that, no snopp dog fighting king kong in that game

[forest snow]

yea arma is a nice change of pace from battlefield.

[tepid agate]

If a lot of people were saying the same things as being a "problem" with the game it more likely really is a problem lol

[fervent grotto]

We’ve got tons of leaks for the new MW this year and it’s looking really cool. We’re gonna by the firing range from WW2 and AW, returning perks, and returning guns like the intervention and ACR

[forest snow]

yea tbh i do hate call of duty last one i played was call of duty 2 on my 360 nothing since then has appealed to me and at the point now where i refuse to play it.

[fervent grotto]

Those aren’t problems. Cod is meant to be a fast paced shooter, not bf where you and your squad have to work together to win.

[tepid agate]

I never bought another cod after MW3. Went to try warzone when it became free

[tepid agate]

Yeah I used to be 100%, then changed to 100% Battlefield since BF4... But since 2042 I'm just ... Lost

[forest snow]

tbh i pretty much only play battlefield games now and arma sometimes hell let loose. but thats it.

[tepid agate]

Oh hell let loose I play too that's so realistic

[forest snow]

need my ww2 fix. there's just something about hunting down Sherman's in my tiger watching the shells bounce of me as i laugh ha

[fervent grotto]

I feel ya dude. I was always mostly cod, but I had some bf as well. But I only play 2042 for a little bit now. Like two hours and I’m done.

[fervent grotto]

Play BFV

[forest snow]

i have level 433 i think something like 1400 hours

[tepid agate]

Yeah 2042 deflated me a lot. I just find time to do weekly missions after Thursdays then stop

[forest snow]

battlefield V is a really good battlefield game just a bad ww2 game.

[tepid agate]

bfV is still packed lol

[fervent grotto]

I’m still tryna get my classes maxed out. I’ve got a few gold guns. Cod is where I do my grinding. In fact, this week Ima get dark matter

[forest snow]

tbh even the opening scene on battlefield V just triggers my ww2 nerd side.

[tepid agate]

I like the German tank campaign. Launched with "coming soon" and did ages later lol best one for me though

[fervent grotto]

I HATE that one

[tepid agate]

BF1 just does everything. Music and story telling can pull on your heart strings

[forest snow]

was the best one ignore the historical acc of it all, but otherwise a great story with a good ending

[fervent grotto]

Only one I liked was the Australian one and the French one

[forest snow]

V's stories were ok, battlefield 1 had better war stories. V could of done so many other great ww2 stories. 1 thing nothing beats V for is the soundtrack.

[fervent grotto]

Bf1 war stories were way better

[tepid agate]

I think V had some good sound tracks but BF1 was too good. Personal preference

[tall finch]

warzone felt like a more sweaty and arcadey 2042

[fervent grotto]

So, it felt like it was supposed to?

[tepid agate]

Searching the "Apocalypse" themes omggggg

[forest snow]

battlefield 1 is more an alternate ww1 that bugs me, but its still a really good game.

the alpha for battlefield 1 was such a shock first time playing it.

[fervent grotto]

Sorry I didn’t mean to put flat out “bf1 was better” I meant the war stories were better

[forest snow]

yea yea agreed, i dont personally like just how it gives the impression ww1 was full of automatic weapons and some of the weapons in the game never really were used in the war.

[fervent grotto]

Oh no I still enjoyed BF1 I just have way more time on BFV

[forest snow]

Yea V was solid just a shame its life was cut short.

[tepid agate]

I wanna check my times for then when I'm home. I'm sure I also racked up many hours on them lol

[tepid agate]

Cut short to focus on 2042.... Makes it even more sad

[forest snow]

i think my playtime for every battlefield since 1942 must all be over 1000 hours easy, all expect play4free,heroes and hardline.

[tepid agate]

Hmm I'm sure mine are for those too. Only had BF4, BF1 and BFV though

I don't expect 2042 not even near a quarte of them lol

[grizzled whale]

Play4Free was the best BF game to date though

[forest snow]

Looking back it wasnt the worst thing everr tbh ha

just checking 2042 playtime is 564 hours

[tepid agate]

Is that 2042 parody version still active where it looks cartoonist? Can't play it on console though

[forest snow]

looks more bad company 2 style

[tepid agate]

Do you know the name of it?

[forest snow]

battlefield: play4free

[grizzled whale]

you mean clownfield?

[forest snow]

oooooo or do you mean battlefield heroes

[uncut bay]

well yeah it's the single most detailed military sim on the market, the community can be very hardcore at time

[tepid agate]

Oh yes! Is that only on pc?

[grizzled whale]

what

ah, yeah its pc only

[forest snow]

dont the military use it to a extent?

[grizzled whale]

also theres 159 players on it

[uncut bay]

they probably do. I know DCS is used for actual pilot training

[grizzled whale]

all time peak of 504 players

[uncut bay]

which is why planes are so expensive, they're literally 1:1 copies of real life aircraft

[tepid agate]

Wow even less than BF4 lol

[forest snow]

yea i think i recall the British army using arma for training tank crews, it being a modified version of arma

[ripe hedge]

Ive worked with them on the past. The community has both extremely passionate people and truly terrible people, like any other. Good friends there.

[forest snow]

yea was welcomed into arma and shown a lot of the basics when i first started playing. Squad however... wasn't so welcoming

best thing about arma was the british army DLC 😉

[ripe hedge]

Heh my favorite one was Contact 😏

[forest snow]

ooooo yea that wasn't a DLC i was expecting ha

[arctic grove]

Just like most things then lol

[low timber]

I wonder how many players have unlocked the M22 3.5x scope on assault rifles as it requires 100 kills beyond 150m

Expect on Sfar I think it unlocks normally

[tepid agate]

Well my hours are

Bf1: 1,274
BFV: 954
BF4 : 396 (WTH??)
2042: 322

No way BF4 is that low something doesn't add up lol

[low timber]

You are playing 2043 already?

[forest snow]

changed platforms?

[tepid agate]

Yeah I have before

[forest snow]

maybe only tracked 1 platform for 4

i have always wondered though how its decided what weapons make it into a battlefield game does with so many to select from

[tepid agate]

Yeah I could look on that battlfied app before but bow it doesn't show the BF4 data only BF1

Says I got almost 52k kills on bf1 😄

About 27k deaths but I did like to use the bombers lol

[tepid agate]

Typo lol

[low timber]

BF3: 983h
BF4: 982h
BFH: 85h
BF1: 59h
BFV: 493h
2042: 283h
I wish I knew my BC1 and 2 hours

[tepid agate]

Oh no I just saw on PS3 I did 614 hours then ps4 did 396

So BF4 total was 1010 lol

[tepid agate]

Nice numbers!

[low timber]

Skipped minutes so some of those could be one hour more if rounded up.

[tepid agate]

I feel bad I never got bfV to 1k hours lol I think I stopped for several months at some point because they had problems near the launch and on top of that, the level cap stopped at 50 for so long in game and there was no motivation to keep going

[low timber]

Funny cat

[tepid agate]

Typo again 😄

[low timber]

I know the pain lol

[tepid agate]

I don't think I'll get 2042 close to those hours I am actually shocked I am at 322 hours

Wow I played the beta for 25 hours 😄

[low timber]

I would have more hours on hardline if 1. My friends were more interested in it 2. The ttk wasn’t so high.
And BFV could’ve been higher as well as when it’s support ended the next September I got hooked on Fallout 76 trough gamepass.

[tepid agate]

My hard-line is less then 1 hour it shows. I never tried it when it got talked about was just too addicted to bF4. I downloaded when it came out for free though, thought it was ok

[clever adder]

I have a dumb queation

Why do both russ and us forces share m5a3 ?

[thick copper]

cos u are not the russians or americans

[clever adder]

Shouldnt russ use ak at least

Wait what

[thick copper]

u are the no pats
for some reason all no pats fight international wars and they fight eachother instead of shooting the americans or russians

[fervent grotto]

Because that’s how all bf games have worked. Opposite teams can use the same guns

[fast arch]

Bruh how do y’all find servers in 2042 every time I try to find a conquest it’s always dead

[thick copper]

wednesday

[fervent grotto]

No the teams are America, No-Pats, and Russia

[thick copper]

all the specialists are no pats
and the game is no pats shooting no pats

[fast arch]

People play on Wednesday?

[clever adder]

I played bf2 all factions have different strating weapons

[thick copper]

no thats my point
look at the demographics
peak time is friday night and saturday

[fervent grotto]

Jeez is that the last bf you played? Your in for a rude awakening

[fast arch]

Ok, thanks

[thick copper]

u can play pve and grind gun xp that way if you want

[fast arch]

Nah it’s fine I was just wondering cause sometimes me and my friends have nothing to play on game nights so we try bf2042 and it’s dead

[thick copper]

i mean if u cant find a game with friends, u can do the co-op pve and turn the difficulty up to max?

[fast arch]

Alright

[clever adder]

Lol wth so every one start with the same weapons regardless of factions?

[glad mist]

welcome to discount CoD 2042

[fervent grotto]

Yea. BF1, BF4, BFV, and 2042

Not sure about BF3 I’ve never played it

[clever adder]

Why do they dp that?

So german soldier start game with m1 garand?

[thick copper]

bf is more focus on gun slinging and large warefare
not accuracy regarding team guns

games like hell let loose have team specific weapons and such

[fervent grotto]

Assault – Sturmgewehr 1-5
Support – KE7
Medic – Sten
Scout – Lee Enfield No. 4 Mk1
These are the starting guns for BFV

[glad mist]

bf3 had faction kits still

[uncut bay]

faction based weaponry is stupid, i'm glad they tried and ditched it in hardline

[glad mist]

they ditched that concept in BF4 so there's more weapons to choose from overall

[thick copper]

probably people complained that it took to long to grind gun xp so they opened it up

[glad mist]

and its easier to balance & progress by the player

[vale pier]

Main thing wrong with the weapons is there isn't nowhere near enough of them. I mean 3 pistols and one is a revolver and the other is a machine pistol. Horrible amount of choice

LMGs my favourite type? 2, fucking 2

[thick copper]

and they are super weak

[strange pivot]

how good svk nowdays?

[clever adder]

Is squad any better

I really wanna try ww3 but no aus server

[glad mist]

WW3 is better than 2042 yeah

Though without the entire air aspect, and it's still WIP

Squad is BF2 Project Reality but as a Standalone game

made by the same devs of said mod

There's also Hell Let Lose, Squad but in WW2

[uncut bay]

just died from wingsuiting into a tree at low speed lmao

[clever adder]

I really like modern warfare combined arms though

[tame apex]

guys do you know how to get the rush kills for the weekly mission?
i've got so many kills but still progression is locked at 0-10 ?

[shy latch]

I tried WW3 during this last public stress test and definitely isn't better than 2042 at the actual state

[glad mist]

Nothing can be worse than 2042

[uncut bay]

i think ww3 can be better than 2042, it's certainly more polished but the gameplay just doesn't feel all that good

funny how ww3 was called the battlefield killer back in 2018 then flopped, and now it's being called the same thing and probably will flop again lol

it would be cool if it became something bigger, but it looks to be heading in the wrong direction

[thick copper]

2043

[fervent grotto]

And then the MP28 is complete dogshit

[lyric snow]

Happy easter guys 🥚

[soft swallow]

Well if you think about that, Batrlefield 1943 is better than 1942

[thick copper]

this games pistols seem to have better accuracy with hipfire than ads

[soft swallow]

I agree, well it seems that they are both incomplete

[shy latch]

not only a matter of gameplay (that obviously is different from 2042) but the sound actually is horrible, the movement are clunky in somehow, weapon customization menu isn't user friendly and the fact that is not possible to change class nor weapon during spawn is something that personally don't appreciate

[thick copper]

sometimes i think i am lagging
but its just the clunky movement

[soft swallow]

Do we have to talk about the gunplay?

[lyric snow]

ww3 graphics suck

[thick copper]

especially in the portal, u cant strafe while sprinting

[shy latch]

as I said few days ago here in this chat: this year was meant to be a title kills another title, a serial killer year

[glad mist]

i prefer gameplay over graphics tbh

[thick copper]

u have to in this game
if u play with ultra and every special graphic setting on the game gives you negative fps

[lyric snow]

I prefer graphics

[glad mist]

what happens to a FPS when it focuses too much on graphics can be seen in BFV

[soft swallow]

If graphic is good it's ok, but the most important thing is the gameplay to me, and I say this as a retro gamer

[thick copper]

also this games too gpu heavy

[glad mist]

which had the most horrendous spotting visibility of the franchise

[soft swallow]

No that's Battlefield 1

Or Hardline

[glad mist]

BF1 too but not the extend of 5

[shy latch]

I can understand the gunplay is something different because WW3 is trying to don't imitate other games (even though it's highly inspired from bf)

[soft swallow]

I mean, I played both and I have to say that Battlefield V has a better gameplay than Battlefield 1

[glad mist]

people could sit in rubbles of trash and you wouldn't see them till they started blasting you.
Or you ran past people literally sitting in a bush or shadow which you wouldn't notice until it was too late.

[vale pier]

If your game isn't fun with graphics similar to roblox, it wont be fun looking like crysis either

[glad mist]

even Tarkov does it better than BFV

[thick copper]

how?

bf1 is far superior than V

[glad mist]

^^^

[thick copper]

V was the beginning of the end

[glad mist]

and i didn't even like BF1

or played it as much as BF3 or 4

[thick copper]

V is like COD on lsd with its focus on super bright colours in maps

[soft swallow]

Actually I played all the Battlefield franchise and I have to say that Battlefield 1 is the Battlefield game that disappointed me the most

[thick copper]

probably the one u just sucked at

[soft swallow]

I suck at Battlefield 3 too man

But I love that game

Lol, I can't understand why people think that if you hate a game it's just 'cause you suck, this is just non-sense logic

[thick copper]

bf3 had sights though bf1 is more ironsight heavy
which ive seen many people get pissy about saying its not fair where are the scope for my smg

[vale pier]

Battlefield 3 Aftermath. yum yum

[soft swallow]

Battlefield 3 Endgame

[glad mist]

Prolly cause most people i have talked to on this server hate BF3 and 4, which are arguably the absolute peak of this franchise, cause they sucked in those games and couldn't adapt to the high skill ceiling those games have.

[soft swallow]

What? But Battlefield 4 is my favourite Battlefield :c

[glad mist]

Idk

Same people also fanboy the absolute shit out of 2042 cause they finally have fun in a BF game for once and don't get farmed by good players, since those dropped 2042 months ago already.

With it's narrowed down skill ceiling and low skill floor

[vale pier]

Bf3 wad the start of making battlefield more console / casual focused. A lot of people coming from BF2 didn't like the direction. Maybe they are still bitter now?

[thick copper]

its like they implemented drs for battlefield

[glad mist]

BF2BC had it coming for console already tho

[soft swallow]

I think that's the new movements that make it seem like Apex, if he had the same movements of Battlefield 1 if not they would not even played for nothing

[shy latch]

BF4 is part of my heart, I played it for 5 years roughly on my (ex) ps4

[thick copper]

back to basics in bf1 was hilarious to play, watching all those players get angry about not being able to use their smgs or lmgs

[glad mist]

It's EA trying to milk fans from other franchises for money

[soft swallow]

Yeah very funny

[soft swallow]

So sad that they actually lost players for this

[glad mist]

I'd bet my left nutsack that atleast half of this servers population consists of CoD veterans who haven't touched any BF

[thick copper]

why your left?

[glad mist]

idk

[thick copper]

and which perception of left are we talking about yours or ours?

[glad mist]

praise

playing it since release

[shy latch]

yup, on ps3 first (graphics really sucked) and then upgrade to ps4

premium version

[glad mist]

last gen BF4 was wild

had to bridge to xbox 360 for a while since my FX6350 PC, which i had during BF4s release, bricked itself.

Play on Xbox for like a year and even with 16v16 it was still pretty good

or was it 24v24

[shy latch]

tbh I don't remember the match on ps3 if it was 16v16 due to hardware limitations, but 32vs32 was amazing for sure

[soft swallow]

Obviously

[shy latch]

and then when they released Second Assault DLC.......🤤

[glad mist]

yeah i'm pretty sure last gen had atleast 16v16, though i remember it as being more

[soft swallow]

That was sweet

[glad mist]

like 24v24, or 20v20.
I remember there being always atleast 4 full squads per side

[soft swallow]

64 vs 64

[glad mist]

BF3 Armored Kill tho

[shy latch]

uhm, BF3 I barely remember was 16v16 so I guess also the old-gen version of BF4 was 16v16, but squad was made by 5 people and this aspect I never liked

[glad mist]

the BF3 DLCs were the best imo

[shy latch]

instead rn on 2042 I would prefer they will add a couple of more people (with a total of 6) per squad on 128p (even tho I can only play 64p actually 😢 )

[glad mist]

i doubt 2042 will get alot more attention than they need to address

at max it'll get two "seasons" consisting of one season worth in content, then shift to making BF6. Which i fully support tbh

[shy latch]

I don't know, as far as i know it's a similar story with BFV (but I didn't followed the whole story so maybe I'm wrong)

[glad mist]

2042 is doing three times as bad as BFV, so i'd assume €A just wants to lay hands off of it as soon as their two year contract runs out

[vale pier]

Well if they stick to what they said before the next battlefield games will be set in the 2042 universe. So not sure how much you want them to move on. I say they have to end anything related to this game and start fresh.

[glad mist]

afterwards they can't get sue'd anymore for dropping the game

[glad mist]

💀

[ruby saffron]

I’d rather them fix the game I paid a hundred dollars for

[glad mist]

inb4 it'll actually be a BR game this time

[glad mist]

thats why you never ever buy AAA games on release or preorder them

no matter how much they honeycone it

ive learnt that lesson with F76 lol

[vale pier]

They 100% should not be allowed to move onto the next game before they get this game to an amazing standard, then spend at least year adding more maps and weapons after that.

I hope we don't see another battlefield game for 5+ years.

[glad mist]

i'm hyped for WW3s updates and Arma 4

for regular casual FPS kicks i can just boot up BF3 or 4 till then

[random flare]

Kek

[soft swallow]

It is the only one thing I hate about Battlefield 4

[soft swallow]

I'm more hyped for Arma 4 than WW3, WW3 I've like played it 3 hours, and than I've uninstalled it and then I didn't play it anymore

[shell ermine]

So when is DICE going to cancel support for 2042 and refund everyone?

[forest snow]

Starting to run into more and more cheaters now to

[grizzled whale]

never, we got what we paid for except the season pass

[ruby saffron]

Literally never

And if they did I’d never buy another battlefield. I’ve been playing since 1942

[shell ermine]

So when is DICE going to cancel support for 2042, refund everyone, restart development on BFV, add Eastern Front and late war Western Front maps, and relaunch the game on current-gen consoles as Battlefield 1944 as a mea culpa?

[grizzled whale]

Also never

[ruby saffron]

Literally never

[shell ermine]

Well, Battlefield is a dead franchise then. Was a mostly good run.

[ruby saffron]

We have at minimum a year of 2042, perhaps 2.

[grizzled whale]

"wah wah i paid for a game i dont like dead franchice wah wah"

[shell ermine]

Hard to believe, well not really, that they fucked up so bad that they've got nothing to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the franchise with.

[ruby saffron]

Considering I can find full human 128 games in around 5 seconds, I’m not the only one playing the “””dead game”””

[shell ermine]

Full human, sure Jan.

[ruby saffron]

Yep, people talking and everything

[glossy storm]

Those are some borderline unrealistic and unreasonable expectations from DICE.

[ruby saffron]

The first few AIs get kicked out within a few moments

At one in the morning I found 31 full portal servers. One in the morning.

[shell ermine]

Considering DICE considers every expectation unreasonable then no expectation is unreasonable.

[ruby saffron]

Advanced AI rush is brutal. The machine learning bots are brutal

[cedar turtle]

BF2042, but what about BF2069?

[vale pier]

nice

[desert elbow]

Funny when you consider the fact that the only expectation they called brutal was the fact people literally expected them to work while they were on holiday, like seriously let them take a break

[grizzled whale]

what about joemamafield 2042

[desert elbow]

but yeah, sure. It's them who are wrong

[slate meadow]

These expectations are brutal

[fervent grotto]

They don’t communicate even when they’re not on break. We have no expectations at this point

[river trench]

[slate meadow]

Yeah why is the answer to every question " we will go into this later on"

Or go into more detail later on

[fervent grotto]

Ay it’s my fellow gamer

[fervent grotto]

Because they won’t lmao

[ruby saffron]

I’d say because they don’t want to set expectations they can’t reach. They got burned by doing that hard

[fervent grotto]

Yea they shouldn’t have done that

[ruby saffron]

I’d rather them shut up and do work rather than lie for 12 hours a day on twitter

[slate meadow]

You think they lied about all dice employees working in the game now aswell then?

[ruby saffron]

No? I highly doubt they lied about having all hands of deck

[grizzled whale]

"they" didnt lie about that

[desert elbow]

They were on holiday lol

[grizzled whale]

the one employee that claimed that most likely did though

[onyx plover]

Is ther eany talk of like a TDM or a short gamemode? I wanna play BF but I only have like 30 min sometimes?

[ruby saffron]

EA is most likely holding a gun to dice over this, they probably very much wish to fix the game and are working on it. Hell job listings show they recently were hiring for 2042 related jobs it seems

[clever adder]

same

[wide violet]

Shout out to Anthem

[grizzled whale]

If there was one game i could revive its anthem

that game was insanely good aside from content

[ruby saffron]

Ea could afford to toss out anthem as a one-off. They can’t afford to toss a battlefield out because they know full well if they don’t fix it nobody will buy the next

[wide violet]

did you not hear the earnings call? they make more money off of Fifa/Apex

[grizzled whale]

BF is only 10% of EA's income, they could very well afford to let it die completely

[onyx plover]

Facts!

[wide violet]

I dont think they care about BF anymore

[onyx plover]

as soon as I heard they were making another BF title I was like yup bf2042 is gone

[ruby saffron]

They could financially, but it’s a franchise they have a lot of weight in the industry with.

The next battlefield is in pre production and it’s a story based spinoff of 2042 according to leaks

The next mainline bf has no information about it and most likely won’t see the light of day for a few years

[wide violet]

sounds like your on hopium/copium brother

[ruby saffron]

Sounds like I follow the leaks like I have for almost twenty years

[wide violet]

[ruby saffron]

I have been playing this shit since 1942

[wide violet]

me too bud

[ruby saffron]

I’ve seen it all, I know how dice works

[grizzled whale]

you dont

[wide violet]

[grizzled whale]

because dice changes how they work whenever EA forces them to

not even dice knows how they work anymore

[wide violet]

Dice from 1942 has drastically changed bud, theyre not the same anymore

[ruby saffron]

And I know very well in a year when the ultra giga premium edition of 2042 comes out, tons of people will be masturbating over “how dice did it again” they did it with 3 4 hardline 1 5. It’s a tradition that should be fuckin stopped and dice should actually make functional games

People who say 2042 had the worst launch are delusional. 4 had objectively the worst launch state of any AAA fps game ever made

[wide violet]

hes getting aggro

[ruby saffron]

That game destroyed consoles for 5 months straight

[grizzled whale]

take cover!

[ruby saffron]

I should know because it almost set my expensive ass console on fire back in the day, bricked it straight to the trash

I should have left then and there but being the fan I am I stayed for even more torture

EA needs to actually stop releasing broken games and fixing them a year later, it’s scummy

[grizzled whale]

what are these revolutionary statements

[ruby saffron]

It’s the same thing every time because they do the same thing every time

[flat tusk]

Yet people continue to buy their games

[clever adder]

is fifa that good lol, betting the entire corp on 1 game is dumb, they will always have to look for new things

[cedar turtle]

that game kicks balls

[grizzled whale]

the 12 people still playing fifa spend millions on it

[lethal bluff]

[cedar turtle]

I don't think I've played a FIFA game since 2001.

I need to be able to injure and maim in my sports games.

[clever adder]

havent played since 2010

like honestly every new fifa they just update player stats ?

[silk surge]

Every dudebro on the planet plays FIFA lol.

[onyx mica]

Not me

[silk surge]

That's like THE console game for casual gamers.

[real pawn]

[silk surge]

I said every dudebro, not anime villains.

[onyx mica]

U know me aw

Sus

Only another villains know their kin

[pine roost]

You called?

[onyx mica]

Lol

[clever adder]

"Still needs work. Its in alpha so it to be expected. but personally if they make the movement feel less clunky, fix the audio completely, fix matchmaking, and add more maps and weapons that aren't assault rifles. This game could easily be the next big FPS game that everyone plays." one WW3 review on steam

was planning to get it but wtf, this is like building 50% of a game lol

[onyx mica]

Uh i love the game still

[clever adder]

yteah i thought the youtube vids look really cool

especially the drone strike

[pine roost]

I never got a chance to play it but I’ve got eyes set on other fps’ at the moment. Of course it’s inspired by battlefield but it just doesn’t do it for me

But I can see why people are looking forward to it

[clever adder]

what else are you playing ?

[onyx mica]

Im curious

[pine roost]

At the moment I’m playing apex, titanfall, squad, battlefield of course and more. But I’m interested in gundam, battlebit and leap

[silk surge]

Looks like we might get naval warfare 😮 https://twitter.com/temporyal/status/1521821956944936961?s=20&t=Koy6IoA-u8OY7IJrOUtiLQ

A few people asked about the inclusion of boats in #Battlefield2042. Currently there are two modern & unreleased variants of the RHIB (4 seats) for 2042:

🪖 Military
👨 Civilian

I was also able to find some jet ski badges in the technical playtest client, but that's about it...

But I’ve got a huge backlog of titles still to go through when the chance arises

[grizzled whale]

bro how tf you supposed to get a boat T1 when it aint even got the minigun

[onyx mica]

Uh

[silk surge]

I guess by shooting from the passenger seat.

[onyx mica]

I can't swim it is dangerous

[grizzled whale]

none of the maps even have water outside of the edges of the map

[onyx mica]

No no angel u need to have an open mind and imagine

[clear quail]

none of the maps so far

[grizzled whale]

unfunny

[clear quail]

me?

[onyx mica]

It is all water around us

[grizzled whale]

nah other dude

[radiant prism]

Actually Kaleidoscope has a little bit, but not enough for boats to really be worth anything

[pine roost]

If the tuktuk can have a t1 then this can

you know what to do

[subtle iron]

how many kills for tuk tuk t1?

[grizzled whale]

you can run over people with the tuk tuk

you cant run people over in a boat

[radiant prism]

1200 I’d assume

[clear quail]

run over people with the boat

[pine roost]

you think you can suppress my power with that logic

[onyx mica]

Hourglass is an ocean u people just don't see it enough

[silk surge]

If these are to be released into the game, there will probably be water oriented maps released.

[clear quail]

if hourglass is an ocean then it's a glass thas empty

[onyx mica]

Uh no

[silk surge]

There is an image in the PS5 interface while you have 2042 loaded up that shows a squad riding on a boat with the giant main menu ship behind them. I wonder what that means.

[onyx mica]

Cool right

[clear quail]

it's a lucid dream

[pine roost]

Is that not the nosehair canals splash screen?

[silk surge]

Would be cool if the Exodus ship becomes a metro-style map though.

[onyx mica]

Metro

Delete boris we can have metro

[silk surge]

Nah, the people on that boat were specialists. Rao, Mackay, Dozer and Sundance.

[hexed mango]

probably for ridge/exposure which has a lake

[clear quail]

could be a portal splash screen

[pine roost]

Hm, I haven’t seen that before

[clear quail]

maybe one of the objectives is in the lake

[onyx mica]

Not going metro with boris all over it

[silk surge]

Ayy look what I got.

[onyx mica]

Cool

[clear quail]

gj

now do the tuk tuk

[silk surge]

I didn't even camp with it. My friend and I owned lobbies with this thing.

[clear quail]

political lobbies?

[onyx mica]

My friend said i was a bad driver cuz i ran people over

[silk surge]

The minigun is insane if you have a passenger with amazing aim. I got consistent 80 assist/40-50 roadkill games.

[subtle iron]

what game is your pfp background picture?

[onyx mica]

A dude

[tiny imp]

Halo infinite have dropped season 2 today. BF 2042 season 1 haven´t started yet....Zzzz

[onyx mica]

Oh u meant insideeee is an old bf

[subtle iron]

o ok

[wanton magnet]

That season 2 is barebone crap though for the next six months. 🤷🏼‍♂️ and the game still suffers from desync.

[onyx mica]

When i was there it feels like omg this is war

[fervent grotto]

and vanguard is on season 3 lmao

[tiny imp]

yeah

[fervent grotto]

My fellow Americans

[river trench]

Vanguard was before or after 2042?

[hexed mango]

im bored so im reading shader files from the game in hex

[clear quail]

Very meaningful

[hexed mango]

This program cannot be run in DOS mode

from the .exe of the game

[warped pulsar]

Vanguard released before 2042

[fervent grotto]

Ummm I think it was after

[hexed mango]

Vanguard: November 5, 2021
BF2042: November 19, 2021

[warped pulsar]

I heard nothing of Vanguard, even tho people hate 2042, I hear about it more than Van

[fervent grotto]

Ahh yea I remember waiting after vanguard for 2042

[hexed mango]

The game received mixed reviews from critics, with praise towards the campaign and multiplayer, but criticism for its Zombies mode and lack of innovation.
from wikipedia

[onyx mica]

i did not play vanguard yet

[warped pulsar]

the zombies looks horrible in that game, I enjoy Cold war zombies tho

[fervent grotto]

It’s doing much better than 2042 rn

[clear quail]

Proud of ya

[fervent grotto]

Oh it is. CW zombies is super fun tho

[onyx mica]

yea me too

[fervent grotto]

I’ve been grinding vanguard. Got myself diamond ARs

[clear quail]

Proud of ya

As long as you havin fun

[warped pulsar]

wonder how MW2 is gonna be

[clear quail]

Lookin at the trends in most fps shooters

It aint lookin good

[pine roost]

Hero shooter time

[warped pulsar]

they releasing thiccer skins?

[hexed mango]

wtf

[fervent grotto]

Looking to be absolute god tier rn

[fervent grotto]

Don’t ask tbh

[clear quail]

People do like thicc now

[hexed mango]

i dont want to be that guy but that's what people said about like... this game... and other games... just saying

[warped pulsar]

it's everywhere in Fortnite

[upbeat sand]

Buy the gummy bear on November 19th

[hexed mango]

https://www.amazon.com/Gummy-Bear-Album-Gummibär/dp/B07YMTBVY9

[upbeat sand]

Yes

[warped pulsar]

Elden Ring was hyped, it delivered. very rare case tho

[hexed mango]

BUy the GummY Bear AblBumo On November 19th

[clear quail]

Ain't fps tho

[upbeat sand]

Screw gummy bear it's time for the annoying orange Cartoon Network tv show

[warped pulsar]

the micro transactions are gonna be pain for MW2

[hexed mango]

fo76 was hyped, it didnt, then it got good
cb77 was hyped, it didnt, then it got good
(could say the same for some bf games)
NMS was hyped, it didnt, then it got good

i think if anything, bf2042 can get good. plus dice has a past of being able to pull games back up, only to be shut down by Ea

[fervent grotto]

Well we already have a bunch of leaked stuff. Returning guns like the intervention and ACR, a firing range like from WW2 and AW, returning perks, and others

[clear quail]

Hope

[upbeat sand]

gets good

Ea:

[fervent grotto]

Literally what they did with BFV and Battlefront 2

[hexed mango]

^

[upbeat sand]

I was hyped for eastern front

[warped pulsar]

I'm sure 2042 will be good, sucks it's gonna take forever tho

[hexed mango]

they should add stalingrad to portal

[fervent grotto]

Dude I just want Russian guns. Mosin, PPSH, DP-27, PTRS-41 and others

[hexed mango]

cause stalingrad was in 1942, would be fun to see ussr

[hexed mango]

mosin would be super sex

[upbeat sand]

I was mainly waiting for new maps and that 1 ads mg

But then we got the summer and fall community update

[pliant knot]

game dead af

[harsh rover]

Bf2042 is bussy baka

[pliant knot]

jk I haven’t checked the game since like 3 months ago

[clear quail]

Damn

[upbeat sand]

After 4.0 highest on steam charts was 4,000

[pliant knot]

tbh I just got bored and lost interest in the game completely

[pliant knot]

good compared to how it was but for a game that is now like 6 months old it’s kinda crap

[harsh rover]

İt's kinda similar to bf4

[grizzled whale]

4460

[pliant knot]

Well, it’s comparing an 8 year old game with a 6 month old game

[harsh rover]

Ok you're right

[clear quail]

An 8 year old game at it's start vs a current game at its start

[harsh rover]

But bf4 better on performence

[clear quail]

Still kinda bad

[harsh rover]

İ take it back

[clear quail]

But ya know

[pliant knot]

yea 2042 already flopped

[upbeat sand]

got way better after 0.4.0 but a amount of bugs remain but it is now way playable and different attachments now have their own stats, but I heard sometimes falling through maps was a thing and we still need to wait another month until actual game content (and micro transactions) hit the game soo

[harsh rover]

İ will prob don't have chance to try it

[clear quail]

Nah, season 1 gonna decide that

[runic prism]

Bruh my team fucking sucks i dont want to play this game anymore. Playing with a fucking team on that ice map sucks so hard

[pliant knot]

Bruh…game is unfinished af

[clear quail]

Bad day maybe

[shell ermine]

As long as a Conquest-lite Ground War is back I'll be super happy with MW2

[clear quail]

But much better compared to last Nov

[pliant knot]

Game is a failure already, EA and DICE expected way more players and money, season 1 may bring back some players but tbh I don’t think it’ll make the game be a bomb

[clear quail]

It might

[pliant knot]

people lost faith already

[clear quail]

Cuz most players are waitin for content n performance fixes

[pliant knot]

as expected,

[clear quail]

Well my guy

[runic prism]

That shit always happends omg . Ice map is so fucking bad . Only good 3 maps are renewal and orbital and that indian map with the ship

[shell ermine]

But unlike BFV and SWBF2, 2042 will never be good so long as the Specialist system is intact

[clear quail]

Reason why we got a specialist core feedback comin soon

[hardy leaf]

content will most probably include a new map, new specialist and maybe a new mode thats all,

thats what we will get in season 1

[cedar turtle]

So no pets?

[clear quail]

We gettin a battlepass

[frank rain]

Were u playing conquest with me

[hexed mango]

i disagree

[ruby saffron]

4.0 added files for 3 maps actually

[clear quail]

Now?

[frank rain]

Few hours ago your name was kkstar ngl

[clear quail]

Yup thas me ig

[hardy leaf]

lets see

[frank rain]

Are u from asia

[hardy leaf]

still 2 months left more or less

[hexed mango]

seems so

[clear quail]

Yes

[frank rain]

Did u get the skin ice pick

[hexed mango]

heheheha

[frank rain]

Rush challenge still not tracking

[clear quail]

Nope

I've contacted support

[frank rain]

Go to ea help

[grizzled whale]

why do you even want it

[soft swallow]

It would be better a Specialist system + Class system, it would be kinda cool in that case ya know?

[frank rain]

They will grant u that reward

[grizzled whale]

its so bland

[fervent grotto]

It looks cool

[grizzled whale]

i feel like the only cool skin is the SWS skin from last week

[kindred wind]

whats the best AR and sub machine gun rn

[clear quail]

I did, imma try again

[grizzled whale]

AR is still the AC-42, smg imo is mp9

[ruby saffron]

The mp9 is cracked

[soft swallow]

It doesn't exist, the best is the one with which you are best, it is something subjective not objective

[frank rain]

I had a chat with them rush challenge wasn't tracking they granted me that reward do u know wat ea help is

[grizzled whale]

thats arguably wrong

[clear quail]

I do lmao

[ruby saffron]

The best gun in the game is the recoiless launcher

[kindred wind]

Its not that deep

every game has a gun everybody uses after patches

[frank rain]

😡 👿

[kindred wind]

i havent played in months but i heard after patch 4.0 the game is better

[soft swallow]

It is

But still incomplete

[kindred wind]

Smh I wonder when they're going to bring new maps!

[soft swallow]

Early summer, we just now this detail, nothing more unluckily

[frank rain]

I wonder if the next weekly mission would be bugged I am so angry 😡 and if it is still missing

Please dice it should be tracking it should be visible

[soft swallow]

It would be bugged. They said the weekly missions will be corrected in the next patch, which has not yet arrived

0.4.1

[frank rain]

Bhenchod dice

[fervent grotto]

That’s utter bullshit

[fathom crane]

Does anyone know why the different compensators and silencers don't have different stats? Why only 3 side arms? With no single player I would expect more maps and more legacy maps

[fervent grotto]

It’s a weekly mission. Have someone fix it real fast

[frank rain]

😡 👿

[fervent grotto]

Because this game was released undeveloped and without enough support

[soft swallow]

It is, but apparently they want to release the fix in the next update for some reason

[fervent grotto]

Because they want a reason for people to come back. It’s a fucking weekly mission it’s not that hard to get right

[fathom crane]

I love battlefield, but this one was a big disappointment up to now

[soft swallow]

Perhaps it is to put a fix in the next update so that the hotfix seem larger, if it would be in bad taste but ingenious

[frank rain]

It's may already on YouTube people are saying update will be soon

[soft swallow]

They do an update per month but this month is not yet known when the update will be released in May

So we don't know a precise date for this month

[frank rain]

Hmmmmm😱

[soft swallow]

probably it will be released in the second half of the month as the last update

[clear quail]

yup

[safe sable]

MW2 about to cripple this game

[soft swallow]

Depends, If the game will equal MW2019 will end up like Vanguard

[fervent grotto]

For realll

[soft swallow]

And the players are hoping that MW2 will be downloaded without having to be forced to have Warzone

[fervent grotto]

2042 is digging it’s own graveC and MW2 will be the one to push them into it

[soft swallow]

'Cause it's stupid and annoying

[soft swallow]

I still don't understand why Dice has not kept the old style of Battlefield

[uncut bay]

money

[soft swallow]

It does not seem to have worked, according to statistics says he made more money with Battlefield V than with Battlefield 2042

[safe sable]

Best battlefield to date was 1

[uncut bay]

yep, they made a gamble and lost miserably

[safe sable]

That game took 8 years to make, and it was perfect.

No flaws

[shell ermine]

So long as it has Ground War, yeah

[soft swallow]

Perfect be like : Singleplayer it's a buggy mess and non-sense gameplay events. And I have to talk about multiplayer? Unbalanced weapons, exposed maps, 5 players in squad wtf, weapons are unrealistics and animation reload it's bad quality... perfect

[shell ermine]

Random deviation, weird Conquest, sweet spot just to name three off the top of my head

[soft swallow]

Wanna talk about the spawn points?

Spawnpoints aren't randomly generated so people just wait somebody spawns for doing a spawn kill

[safe sable]

Never played the single player. And I have no issues with anything else in the game.

[soft swallow]

'Cause the issue is the game

It was the beginning of Battlefield's downfall

Which apparently still does not stop

[arctic magnet]

When is the next BF 2 years?

[grizzled whale]

probably 4

[arctic magnet]

I'm willing to wait 4 years for a real battlefield game 100%

not this pointless crap running like call of duty everywhere with 50 vehicles in between 😪

[soft swallow]

Well there is also the possibility that actually manage to fix Battlefield 2042 and make him the game that everyone wanted: the class system, unexposed and immersive maps, movements that doesnt seem to Apex ... the end is not very difficult to do, but they must do so

[solar nymph]

maybe the next bf will be battlefield 6 and they will call 2042 a spinoff

[soft swallow]

Because Dice knows very well that their game is at risk of death, a death that are causing them, so they are surely trying to act as the community wants it to act

[arctic grove]

id be happy if they upgraded bf 3 and 4 to current gen in 4 years with all dlc.

[hard plume]

No classes

[soft swallow]

Classes are the best system a Battlefield game can have, and Battlefield 2042 doesn't have one

[hard plume]

No it’s not

[soft swallow]

Yes it is

[hard plume]

You only say that because it’s the ONLY system bf has had

[arctic magnet]

Don't you know what a battlefield is like? what a battlefield always was

[soft swallow]

Indeed, weapons are few for classes system, but if you think about it Battlefield BC2 also had few weapons and the classes system was still there and it didn't even suck

[hard plume]

Bog maps, vehicles, infantry, and destruction. Blended together with some jeep stuff

[arctic magnet]

Realistic graphic, 2042 graphic look like cartoons

HEAVY GAMEPLAY, i hate 128 players running like call of duty

No inmersionnm

[hard plume]

Bf has never been immersive

[soft swallow]

No way graphic is one of the few good things

[arctic magnet]

New battlefield with BF3/4 graphic style omg i want

[hard plume]

Class system is a non factor on those games being good, no one was like “dang this class system is totally 1337 yo!”

[hard plume]

Bf3 sucked bf4 only

[arctic magnet]

Battlefield is war.

[soft swallow]

Yet virtually everyone wants it back

[hard plume]

Yeah and their the same people that wanted voip back when it was never used in past bf games cept once in a blue moon and STILL not used. In amy bf game atm.

Go play a popular bf game and tell me how many times you run into someone using voip

[soft swallow]

Nobody

[hard plume]

Exactly, cause the fan base is pretty stupid at times

[arctic magnet]

ok, it's a faster game, but I don't have fun. I want to play Battlefield the way it's always been, not a game with identity issues. Are you call of duty, apex, fortnite???? what have they done with my beautiful battlefield, what have they done with Frostbite so many years of development to make it what it is BF2042

[soft swallow]

But you cannot compare something optional to something that is totally changing the gameplay

The VoIP is not used because the community is demented, the class system you have to use it because you can not take it away

[hard plume]

Tell me what was great about the class system

[soft swallow]

Meanwhile, the weapons balance was much better because each class had its own weapons (The medic smg for example)

[fiery shoal]

dont confuse class system with locked loadouts

theres still classes in 2042, but we are missing locked loadouts

[soft swallow]

Then it gave a lot more strategic options to the game which made Battlefield unique from other fps

[soft swallow]

Meh more than classes I would call them "word stuck on a character"

[fiery shoal]

idc what you call them, they are still classes

[hard plume]

There was nothing strategic about prior bf games, it was, and always has been an arcadey chaotic mess, which was awesome

[soft swallow]

Same thing for gadgets, it makes me a little 'sick to see a medic with a box of ammunition

[fiery shoal]

thats because of open loadouts

[soft swallow]

Yes, and it's horrible

[hard plume]

Than dont pick the the box of ammo

[fiery shoal]

ok, then complain about open loadouts, not the class system because thats not the problem

[soft swallow]

If I do not do it does not mean that the whole community stop using the medic with box of ammunition

[soft swallow]

Yes, because it just isn't there

[fiery shoal]

classes are literally there... my god

[soft swallow]

I do not think so

[hard plume]

I’m anti close loadouts too but….the name was too long

[hard plume]

Facts dont care about your feelings

[fiery shoal]

thats like saying you dont think 2+2=4...

[soft swallow]

A class system with loadout open but where the hell we are on Valorant?

[arctic magnet]

This game suck in every way

[hard plume]

Why does it matter? Games cant borrow from other games?

[soft swallow]

Oh yes for the math isn't a problem, as you can see i'm a Number expert

[soft swallow]

Yes they can, Battlefield do it whit Cod and Apex but... open loadout... wtf

[hard plume]

Okay than, theres no problem with open load outs then. You also havent given me a good reason why they shouldn’t be in the game

[radiant prism]

It’s just bad, bro, obviously. It’s not like the other games and that therefore makes it bad. Cope harder

[soft swallow]

'Cause every single fucking Battlefield doesn't have it and using the open loadout it's just a downgrade for the entire saga, it's ok this reason?

[hard plume]

[radiant prism]

Damn dude I was joking you didn’t have to go and actually say it

[arctic magnet]

BF2042 is a big downgrade

[soft swallow]

I'm not joking

[hard plume]

Lol when your trolling get too real.

[forest snow]

Forgot how bad breakthrough is

[soft swallow]

Open loadout it's a non-sense mess for the game

[hard plume]

Also no, that’s a shit reason, thats like saying every bf shouldn’t have destruction cause bf 2 didn’t have destruction

[arctic magnet]

Dude, this game suck in every way. This no a battlefield game lol

[hard plume]

Plays like one

[fiery shoal]

its probably the most stripped down BF experience, which is the main problem

[radiant prism]

Man, it’s almost like not having loadout restrictions provides more freedom to play more roles, like how you don’t exclusively have to use an LMG to resupply with ammo, or you can run an AR as a medic or run SMG as a recon.

[soft swallow]

I don't want freedom, I want a real class system whit restricted loadout

[radiant prism]

You create your own class now, you play whatever role you want to, not some arbitrary pre-defined roles

[soft swallow]

🤮

[radiant prism]

Well then you clearly have failed to realize what is objective truth and what is personal opinion.

If you don’t like the system in 2042, that’s 100% valid. That doesn’t make it bad for everyone else though

[soft swallow]

according to what?

[arctic magnet]

man, I've been playing battlefield 4 for over 8 years, and battlefield 1 for over 5 years. This battlefield should have been the next one to play it but it's garbage

[soft swallow]

In fact, I never said, stop making a fool of yourself and making up bullshit just to rant at me

Lol

[radiant prism]

What did you supposedly never say?

Help me understand here.

[soft swallow]

That nobody likes open loadout, never said this

[hard plume]

I think its good.

[radiant prism]

I’m not saying you did, I’m just saying that you personally not liking it has no bearing on whether other people do or not or whether or not it provides more freedom. I’m saying that, even if you’re not lol

[soft swallow]

Well, i'm still thinking that closed loadout it's better than open loadout for a Battlefield game

[fiery shoal]

i personally like closed loadout more, that doesnt mean BF is bound to one or the other for whatever arbitrary reason though

yea you can say most previous titles had locked loadouts, that doesnt mean every title going forward has to have it

[soft swallow]

Well technically Battlefield has always been linked to the closed loadout, indeed if I am not mistaken in the first Battlefields you could not even choose the Loadout, you chose the class and just

Obviously we say that it is certainly better to choose a weapon instead of not choosing but I think you understand what I mean

[fiery shoal]

like i said, doesnt mean it HAS to have closed loadouts

[next onyx]

Yeah Nyphon I've always preferred classes since you could balance weapons around it.

Though for this game, might not be perfect buts it's trying something different.

People make a big deal out of snipers on assault which for the most part are useless.

[soft swallow]

But in fact according to Battlefield 2042 it is not a bad game, only that I didn't like it at all the fact that they put an open loadout

[fiery shoal]

i just personally like the restrictions put in place and working with pros and cons of a class. otherwise i make my perfect loadout that i only slightly alter and just wreck people

[next onyx]

"They can heal themselves as medic and infinitely resupply themselves as a sniper!" Kay, they're still not helpful.

But yeah I mostly run with the assault loadout, AR with c5 with motion balls cause they're fucking dumb.

[soft swallow]

I think that... whit a REAL classes system whit specialist the game would be very cool... oh wait a second... it would be not cool... oh shit...

I mean

[arctic grove]

Train go boom

Just like this game

[soft swallow]

It would be cool if everyone could pick the weapon they want, but the thing is, every class should have the gadget they should actually have. Type the example that I did before the medic with box of ammunition, makes no sense

[arctic magnet]

They can fix battlefield 2042, they can put in all the content they want, but here are reasons why this game is terrible.

To begin with, that call of duty gameplay has no place in Battlefield, it loses all seriousness, it seems like a joke, the gameplay must be heavy.

The graphics look quite childish, it makes it look like a child's game.

When the players run they look like robots, the running animation is very poorly achieved, in BF5 when we run the character was synchronized with the ground he could even stumble.

The maps have no immersion, there is no war environment, everything is empty.

The soundtrack is very bad, I start to cry when I capture a sector and they play that terrible soundtrack, it's a shame.

Specialists break all teamwork on the battlefield.

[next onyx]

It's nice not being raided by scout helis all the time. They fix the maps and balance the specialist gadgets better I'd play it more.

What cod gameplay, unless you're talking about super sprint that's a none issue since it's adds, even if you call it cod.

[arctic grove]

it doesnt have that smooth and heavy battlefield-esque movement and animations

[soft swallow]

I Don't Know Why, But I Like Battlefield Soundtracks, somehow I can find a sense and a rhythm, and while games are perfect for the environment around you

[next onyx]

If you're referring to people constantly jumping and sliding, the jumping part has been here for ages in different forms and the sliding part is a whatever.

Literally that's the only thing I can think of people when people say cod gameplay lol.

[arctic grove]

I mean its been in Bfv

[next onyx]

Yeah slide is in 5 but that's still a whatever. It doesn't take away from too much.

[soft swallow]

Oh no, in that case the movements are disgusting in every way, that is, the slide and the secondary run are two very interesting additions, the problematic thing for me is the speed of movement (You can do such as bunny hop)

[arctic grove]

Theres one more thing that i think makes it look like cod and its the static and robotic animations.

[next onyx]

I kinda don't think of animations cause I care about what works haha.

If it tells me x then I don't worry.

[arctic grove]

ok kool

[next onyx]

Though some weapon reloads are too long. -.-

[fiery shoal]

the lack of animations does suck, i dont think i care about them though, but at the same time something feels off about 2042

[soft swallow]

The animation that gives me most trouble is that when you get into a vehicle, you are on the left side of a vehicle and with a big animated cut teleports you to right, is so ugly to look

[fervent grotto]

No way bro the recd t cod animations have been clean

[hexed mango]

they used to have a longer more accurate one but people got mad at it being so long so they made it a cut...

[next onyx]

Movement feels a bit slippery? It's weird to say.

[fervent grotto]

The 2042 ones just suck ass

[next onyx]

That's one thing I can think of but I can't quite place the movement.

[soft swallow]

(I've played Cod and I can say to all of ya that isn't the truth)

[pseudo grail]

Cod same game every year

[fervent grotto]

I think it feels stiff

[next onyx]

Stiff, slippery, It feels like it takes longer to move the opposite direction at times.

[fervent grotto]

Just a question, do you play cod?

[soft swallow]

I don't like it very much, I prefer how it works on Battlefield V

[arctic grove]

I was talking abt the previous cod(before mw2019) animations and how they were kinda static (i cant find the right word)

[soft swallow]

Why this question? He is right

[arctic grove]

Yea alot

[pseudo grail]

Yes until I found out that vanguard is garbage

[fervent grotto]

Ohh I gotcha. Yea the old ones were a bit stiff

[arctic grove]

Oh wait u asked him lol

[shell ermine]

Jump shotting bullshit has never been an issue in Battlefield like it is in COD

[fervent grotto]

Yea because cod and bf are meant for two different experiences

[fervent grotto]

Not really.

[pseudo grail]

It's a fact cod will be the same pile of a shit game that comes out every year you know it and everyone knows it

[arctic grove]

Oh boy you havent seen the bf3 servers in my region, theyre full of cod players who jump shot every 2 seconds

[fervent grotto]

And that’s what it’s doing 100x better than this dogwater game.

[hexed mango]

i mean... i dont personally play cod but that's a bit harsh imo

[next onyx]

Dude. People always jump shotted back in bf3.

[soft swallow]

Yup it is, Vanguard it's a MW2019 reskin, Cold War it's a BO reskin, they have no more ideas for a game

[arctic grove]

Huh mw and coldwar campaign was good but multiplayer is the same

[pseudo grail]

@fervent grotto well sir I'm not defending 2042 and I agree 2042 is a shit game

[fervent grotto]

Cold War is 100% not a BO reskin. Your are entirely wrong

[next onyx]

Infact due to how the movement worked, if you gazelle jumped you went much faster than the regular sprinting player back in bf3.

[fervent grotto]

And vanguard is way worse than MW

[soft swallow]

Cold War is 100% a BO reskin, the only difference of BO and CW is thst CW suck, BO it's cool

[arctic grove]

Cold war is when you take bo1 and mw2019 and mash it togather to make a garbage mp but an amazing campaign and zombies

[pseudo grail]

Mw 2019 was the last cod that I enjoy cold war and vanguard is a failure

[next onyx]

People forget that jump shotting is as much a part of battlefield as it much as it in cod.

[shell ermine]

Not on consoles, and even if they did it didn't help them, it only hurt them

[arctic grove]

Camping go brrrr

[soft swallow]

Good words man

[hexed mango]

cod argument

[shell ermine]

Its not, at all

[next onyx]

Lucky you, I saw it all the time back a 360.

[pseudo grail]

Appreciate it

[next onyx]

The big boys would always do it on bf3 due to the increased speed.

[shell ermine]

In COD you keep perfect accuracy and your momentum when jumping and you can jump much higher and farther than in Battlefield.

[arctic grove]

bruh u have been playing warzone for 6 hours lmao

[soft swallow]

Actually it is, yesterday i've played Battlefield 1943 and I can say that the run and gun It is practiced in the same way as it is in 2042

[next onyx]

Movement is different between cod and battlefield.

[pseudo grail]

That's my little brother playing I don't play it

[clear quail]

don't let the guy lose momentum

[arctic grove]

Oh ok

[next onyx]

In cod you make a lot of accel instantly and lose it quickly, in battlefield it took longer to accelerate and you kept it when you jumped.

[arctic grove]

does jumping increase movement speed in bf3?

[next onyx]

It does.

[arctic grove]

Damn

I thought it just looked faster

[soft swallow]

This is true, and in Cod the secondary run is not infinite, in Battlefield 2042 you can use it whenever you want without ending

[next onyx]

Actually movement in bf3 reminds me of quake.

[arctic grove]

Then y add normal sprint when ppl r gonna use tac sprint all the time?

[next onyx]

When you jumped in both you didn't have to deal with friction

[arctic grove]

Wat how

[shell ermine]

Jumping around corners or jumping when you run into an enemy doesn't help you in Battlefield

Whereas it has become a crutch in COD

[soft swallow]

Because you start shooting slower and in closed spaces it could be a big problem

[pseudo grail]

I like the bf3 bunny hops it's sad they nerf it on bf4

[arctic grove]

Yea theres inertia(kinda)

[clear quail]

yes cuz no pats have been running all their life. They're basically long distance marathon athletes

[next onyx]

Basically when you're running you always have friction applied. When you jumped you of course wouldn't have to deal with the friction sending you through the air. Difference is that in bf3 you can't go 500 units per second Max LOL.

[arctic grove]

Oh ye ur right there isnt anything inside buildings so u have to run

[soft swallow]

BATTLEFIELD 2042 LORE

[next onyx]

Super sprint would increase sprint out times.

That's the balancing factor.

Not as noticeable on subbies and AR's but you certainly notice it on an LMG.

[clear quail]

it's 2042, i bet they got super serum for running long distances without gettin tired

[next onyx]

Nvm the fact that in bf3 you had unlimited sprint times with a full support kit.

[arctic grove]

Because the soldier stood still for 10 seconds

[next onyx]

Unlimited super sprint in the context of battlefield isn't a bad idea since it makes traversal less painful.

[arctic grove]

i mean it has giant maps

[soft swallow]

Well it is in those cases where people use the normal run instead of secodary run, or at least people who understand the difference between the two run systems

[next onyx]

Oh true the typical support main almost never moves LOL.

[arctic grove]

Rpg (or smaw)go boom

[next onyx]

I main support and I can't stop moving that's the irony with me.

[arctic grove]

What does smaw stand for?

[soft swallow]

C4 go boom

[next onyx]

Shoulder launched multi purpose assault weapon.

[arctic grove]

Oh he said support, lmao i always confuse support with engineer

[soft swallow]

My main it's Irish so engineer

[next onyx]

I'm talking about older games. Though in this I just main Mackay without a care cause grappling hook fits my playstyle.

[arctic grove]

Titanfall 2 fan spotted

[soft swallow]

Oh in old games I always use assault and sometimes engineer

[next onyx]

Want to know the irony.

[arctic grove]

i like titanfall 2

[next onyx]

I actually haven't played titanfalls 2 multi outside of the beta.

[arctic grove]

Wut bruh

[next onyx]

I just like the ideas of certain gadgets.

[arctic grove]

Thowe it is funny when you see them try to drop shot you got to love the cod kids trying the big game

[soft swallow]

Oh that game makes me cu- cut my sadness 'cause it's cool...

[next onyx]

How they work.

[arctic grove]

I dont get the joke

[next onyx]

I loved flooding rooms with tear gas in bfh with the gas mask as an enforcer.

Genuinely hilarious with the reaction the enemy team has.

[soft swallow]

Oh...

[next onyx]

They start wearing gas masks and their class useful is cut.

[arctic grove]

Explaination pls

[arctic grove]

The simple Pleasures

[cedar turtle]

Ngl, I want to do that now

[next onyx]

That game had so many good all kit gadgets I often mained each one for a long time. From shield, ballistic charges and well, GAS!

[soft swallow]

I can't, could be warnable

[arctic grove]

Ok

[cedar turtle]

It's not a warning, it's a PROMISE

[soft swallow]

Kekw

[next onyx]

Best part is that in hardline tear gas doubled damage output. You hit a guy with a Battle rifle you would do 96 in a single hit.

[arctic grove]

I remember one in battlefield v I killed a tank by getting on top of it and repair tooling it to death

[next onyx]

I always did that!

Hit their engine with the at pistol so they couldn't run and burn the side.

[arctic grove]

I never got to repair tool a tank but im still trying tho

[arctic grove]

It’s a good spot for mmg to lol

[next onyx]

They can't do anything.

I always used my fg42 or bren.

Or bar.

[arctic grove]

It’s funny as hell they can’t get you of

[next onyx]

I loved support because the lmgs were good.

[soft swallow]

Noice move

[next onyx]

Yeah I don't like riding tanks. Sudden bumps could get you road killed.

Due to how collisions worked.

[arctic grove]

I always jump on one it’s fun

[soft swallow]

I'm not very good to using that... so I always used assault weapons in Battlefield games... oh my lovely M2 Carabine...

[shell ermine]

My top class in BFV was Assault, I was a tank hunter mainly

Also can't not use the M1 Garand

Like I didn't care if other SARs were on paper better, I always used the Garand

[arctic grove]

Support I just like lmgs sniper are fun but depends on the map for me thowe in bf2042 Iv falling in love with the dm7

[soft swallow]

Dm7 it's pretty cool :D

[arctic grove]

I like it with bipod

[soft swallow]

I'm not a big fan of semi-auto weapons but Dm7 it's an exception

"You have received the following warning on the Battlefield server: Please refrain from even implying words with sexual connotations.
Please refer to our rules if you have any questions."... unexpected but deserved

[arctic grove]

I try a little all lmg are fun assault and smg are your go to sniper good semi auto I really get on with probably my fallout days I used them a lot

[arctic grove]

What did you say

[soft swallow]

That is the joke I did before, I think it's been deleted

[hexed mango]

why you only said cultivation

[soft swallow]

perhaps

[hexed mango]

indeed

[arctic grove]

Ow

Well I’m going to cook some food wise you all a good bye

[soft swallow]

I mean, I thought I dodged censoring the rules but apparently it does not work well on servers that are not Italian but are civilians, i'm not very accustomed to this efficiency by mod, since in the Italian servers the mods exist just to be there

Discord lore

[echo yew]

why is this game's gunplay so inconsistent

[fervent grotto]

Released prematurely, incompetent devs etc. etc.

[echo yew]

this game does nothing right it's impressive

[uncut girder]

This bros username confirms that he's a crackhead

[echo yew]

it's like it was made poorly on purpose

[hexed mango]

"the power of fluffy boys" doesn't make you any better

[uncut girder]

Atleast I dont support specialists

Specialists ruined this game harddd

[echo yew]

also fuck breakaway, hourglass, renewal and kaleidoscope is there a way i can make it so i never play those schizo ass maps again?

[next onyx]

You here just to complain fluffy?

[hexed mango]

i wouldn't say these devs are incompetent, they've been doing nothing but continue to work for the game's good since launch

[next onyx]

Have you given flashback conquest a try dude? @echo yew

[hexed mango]

like 99% of the people that come here unfortunately

[echo yew]

ideally i'd just play Manifest and Orbital 24/7 but ill take discarded too

[next onyx]

It's actually really fun.

[echo yew]

also helicopters are still broken, they need more severe nerfs
