battlefield-2042

[heavy linden]

@shy latch competition is a necessary aspect of a game. Its what keeps a solid amount of the playercount on the game. Not everyone is a snowflake like you and people want to go around for kills and compete and be awarded

[fathom crane]

There is no team play on this game, you can only communicate to your squad and they just do their own thing, I can't warn people outside of my squad that a tank or chopper is about to kill them, can't warn them not to Respawn, this battlefield has the least amount of cooperation I have ever experienced in the franchise

[heavy linden]

👍🏻

[shy latch]

but again: on the actual scoreboard you get more points to revive and conquering objectives, not by killing enemies

[dry wigeon]

if u want cooperation play squad 🙂

[full burrow]

@cunning raptor gotta go for a smoke now but yeah il try to get a clip at some point then, hopefully il remember and just ping you whenever

[heavy linden]

that doesnt mean that there shouldnt be a scoreboard u are so braindead

on the one hand you enjoy that there are more points in reviving and support and on the other u say that there shouldnt be a scoreboard

[shy latch]

what's the difference between the previous chapters? no one have ever cooperated with random teammates

[heavy linden]

like you literally prove my point that the scoreboard is necessary to awarding people even for teamplay

the same people that added to give more points for revive are the same people that added the scoreboard

you are not smart enough to comprehend

[shy latch]

oh really? so why I still find matches where the mvp has 5-6 revives or 8 objective conquered? but instead they have like 40 kills and 50 assists?

if you call this teamplay it means there is something wrong

[shy latch]

and stop offending, last warning

[fathom crane]

100 % did revives people run straight pass you even though they can revive on this game when there is no danger. People bothered to mark enemies on the map, so snipers didn't constantly head shot and take out half a squad, if you marked an enemy people would provide covering fire, if said over the mic there are 3 tanks at C1, people would hear me and not run into a blood bath and respawn with rockets or C4, there was cooperation at every level

[upbeat sand]

I wonder if the season 1 launch trailer is gonna have a small cinematic in it or just gameplay with music

[tiny imp]

Is still silent so we dont know anything yet

[cunning raptor]

I wonder how many maps its going to have hopefully 4+ maps with new vehicles and weapons

[full burrow]

I read someone say all operation are OP is their own way except for the drone guy

now I havnt played most operators but ive actually really enjoying using and his drone

you get to mark all the enemies on a point for those teammates attacking it

so yeah what do you guys think

[fierce gull]

You can blow up tanks with C5 drones as Casper

[visual gazelle]

Maybe because most players get passively spotted one way or another anyway. So a spotting drone doesn't have as much use as it's intended.

[full burrow]

I see, but what if I literally can see no one marked and then I light everyone up, or would people have their own or squad spots or something that I dont know they can see these enemies?

[visual gazelle]

Then that would probably be a big help. But I'm just speculating that maybe people think Casper isn't that good because his drone spotting is more situational due to how common it is for players to get spotted anyway.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KH9DpPsDTRE

This video goes over all of the ways players get passively spotted, and I hate it.

[full burrow]

fair enough, I really like using on the map when the you have the ship on the middle with B123, if you spawn on the points and their contested and it spawns you outside I can hide somewhere and fly the drone up and mark all those spawning or hiding behind the larger covers/corners so my teammates know what to expect (those who waiting, not peeking ect), or those who are advancing while ours in cover so that ship is quite a long stretch but yeah

Ill probably eventually just figure out where I like to use it most/can use it best and adapt in different games

@visual gazelle that video was great thanks man

[frosty mural]

Have you ever played the other BFs? Same thing, not sure why you're getting upset about it

[full burrow]

people who actually wonna play together will be in discord or whatever

if you are just joining solo, yeah you can hope for a good squad that just spawns on each other and does well but even then mics would be rarely used

you generally you dont need words to tell your team or whatever about a vehicle just mark it for your team and those who can or want to react to it will

the reason there arnt more people cooperating in the game is just cos no one plays it so there arnt many friend groups and shit playing who would be working together in a voice chat somewhere

[edgy oriole]

we need the minimap to take up half the screen so teammates will actually look at it

we also need the 64 rocket team i always hear about so we dont get run down by vehicles.

[full burrow]

yeah I notice no one goes for vehicles

as in tries to shoot them down

the sounds in the game are definitely off too, you can hear shooting from a far away but a tank can get 20 metres up to me before the sound really gives you a sense of the vehicle

[tropic geyser]

so like, I just thought of how they could bring back the 4 class system without them removing the operators

dunno if anyone else has thought of this, but basically my solution is to do what overwatch did

overwatch has 3 categories: DPS, Tank and Support

and all the heroes fall into one of those 3 categories

so like, what if DICE made is so certain weapons can only be used by certain classes the way previous BF's have done, and all the operators fall into one of those classes

and only medic operators can revive outside of the squad

dunno how good of an idea this would be in practice but just a thought I had just now

[loud flower]

I get downed by a sniper
The blow pushes me back through the door I was next to
The room is full of medics, at least 3, and one of my own teammates
Medics are busy with other stuff, one eventually came to me
But before that

The shitstain that is my teammate, t-bags me instead of reviving me.

This is why we can't have nice things.

[shy latch]

I don't know either, in any case take a note down of it and write on the #948574259209437264 once the specialists thread will be open

[tropic geyser]

cool, I'll try to remember to do that

do we know when the thread will be opened?

[shy latch]

this reminds me an episode from BFFs, but yeah it sucks when nearby Falck or Angels or teammates don't revives you even when it's safe

[shy latch]

no date atm, we just know that it'll be the next discussion

[tropic geyser]

aight

[solid imp]

Here's a hypothetical-- binary choice, no middle ground in this scenario. Would you rather....

1. All the medics diligently revived but every single time you died right away again , or
2. All the medics never revived even when it's safe but you had to wait the whole bleed out timer before redeploying

[edgy oriole]

1 ez

[deep sand]

Yeah I want to know if my squad mates are complete garbage. There was no complete scoreboard to do this. Stop defending their half assery

[shy latch]

and do you need a scoreboard for that?

[loud flower]

It's not that I didn't get revived
It's that my teammate saw me dying in safety and the only thing he decides to do is t-bag me
We're literally on the same team and he just shat on me

Also please DICE, fix the chutes
Spamming the deploy chute button during the entirety of my 270m fall to just end up as cat food on the floor is just not right

[shy latch]

oh ok so at least you were lucky, it happened thousands times to me to didn't get revived with nearby medics that simply went away....

so that was team bagging (from BFFs episode) 😂

[edgy oriole]

i had someone do that to me on south korea. after he was done tbagging he ran away and got ran over by enemy bolte coming down from stairs. karma is sweet

[loud flower]

Yeah I wished a bolte suddenly came out of the sky but oh well

[edgy oriole]

it makes me feel good that he had to wait 15 seconds to spawn again while i just respawned. it was a good laugh.

[spring locust]

Any tips for getting 7 kills with the shield in one life achievement?

[gray comet]

Bots

[spring locust]

I can get trophies in the bots mode? I didn’t know that

[gray comet]

I dont know that either

[spring locust]

Thanks man, im gonna try that and hopefully I get it

[iron blade]

Hopefully the boris blastproof helmet comes next rotation

[lyric snow]

why are russian vehicles weaker than the usa ones

[iron blade]

Because realism

[heavy linden]

you basically want people to play like a snowflake. Not everyone is the support/transport type. Just like in war there are medics / resupliers and fireteams

[arctic grove]

No need to play as a team when i can have any weapon and gadget i want.

[iron blade]

Cringe

But i admit i use rocket launcher over smth like the medic bag

Hopefully if the rumors are true and the specialists are being put into a class type system we will see gadget restrictions

But tbh there aint enough gadgets to evenly disperse across all specialists

Same with guns if they do gun restrictions

[gray comet]

I’ll be playing recon specialists with a total of 6 guns, only 4 of which are useful

If theyre classed as traditional snipers again

[iron blade]

Makes me wish they did the bf4 route and did restricted and universal weapon types

[gray comet]

Yeah but there arent enough total

[iron blade]

Tbh just bring the bc2 and bf3 weapons from portal over

[edgy oriole]

they might. there this man alex that pops in time to time and takes notes.

[iron blade]

Yeah ik him, pestered him to add a futuristic kolibri

[gray comet]

A N NINETY FOUR

PLEASE

[iron blade]

MG3

Vanguard makes me jealous of their weapon count

[gray comet]

Oh yeah

[iron blade]

More than 3 sidearms on release?! Impossible!

[gray comet]

Vanguard exists, I forgot about that.

[edgy oriole]

i only play vanguard when im bored of overwatch and 2042

[iron blade]

Im still playing bf1

[gray comet]

I only have 5 games and 2 are basically the same thing

[iron blade]

And throwing in siege, hll, enlisted, and doom

[edgy oriole]

im a game hopper. ill drop shit and pick shit up crazy fast

[iron blade]

Same, just played doom2016 for the first time, great game

Tried to get back into 2042 yesterday, first game I slammed into the ground too hard and went under the map

Great game IGN 10/10

[gray comet]

Yup that happens occasionally

[iron blade]

I did the same thing in bf1 yesterday, managed to kill some people under the map on Fao lol

[fathom crane]

I've being playing since bad company 2, definitely not the same thing, as on other battlefields your whole team could hear your mic, the point of battlefield is a more realistic cooperative FPS. How can you cooperate with a team that cannot hear you? That's why people do their own thing much more on this game because you cannot communicate with the entire team.

[regal dome]

Is anyone in this server willing to play 2042

[shy latch]

you basically don't want to understand what I'm saying, so as of now i suppose you don't know how Battlefield should properly being played

[edgy oriole]

battlefield should be played like an arcade game

[fathom crane]

I miss the p90 please bring that back

[junior pike]

[topaz field]

51-17 on renewal team Sundance. AC-42! PS4 slim!

[topaz field]

Soon I hope, I miss the m416 😫

[fathom crane]

Yh that was decent as well why on portal don't they have all those great guns and attachments miss them

[ruby saffron]

As a EMT I swear to fuck 2042 players are better medics than half the clowns I work with

[junior pike]

Will bf2042 have a Chinese camp? The US-Russian war has been fought for many years

[radiant prism]

Probably not due to censorship laws

In China

[soft swallow]

BF2042 will not have a camp

[radiant prism]

Lore wise…we do know that China exists in some capacity, a lot of cargo containers are labeled “China Cargo” or something along those lines

But given where things are worldwide in the lore it may be possible that China simply has broken down and isn’t a true superpower anymore

[regal elbow]

bro what

[wanton wave]

Yo what's wrong with bf servers

Just me or?

[still vault]

Wasn't anything wrong when I played earlier

[safe sable]

Same. Just got off maybe 15 minutes ago

[daring glade]

playing right now and nothing wrong? on servers. I am in EU

except lot of bots ofc coz it still does not combine actual human players 😄

[wanton wave]

I can't find a lobby anywhere it says 15 players required

Any gamemode i try

If i start tdm i get placed in a lobby alone

Oh my cross play is off

[full burrow]

lol

[deep sand]

If they improve the game, sure

[frosty mural]

It was actually squad only on all BFs

[arctic grove]

Suggestion: every specialists gets mackays nimble trait

[frank stratus]

i enjoy 2042 theme

[lyric snow]

add 50mm cannon to tuk tuk

[arctic grove]

It fits the overall theme atleast

[arctic grove]

Aswell as on other maps

[gray comet]

Tuk Tuk Boom Boom

[heavy linden]

You basically trying to tell me that teamplay is what should be done. You back that up by saying revving and resupplying gives more points than killing does. Although your brain cannot comprehend that the same people that added to so the revives give more points than kills are the same people that added the "toxic" scoreboard. Battlefield isn't only about teamplay and that's the reason you can shoot your enemy. All bf games had the scoreboard so people can feel awarded for their actions and feel good about their performance in game. Its a video game is not some random schoolwork to not require you to see how others have done. Scoreboard shall be added for all bf games to come and it shall not be removed because some random slowflake is embarrassed for his score. You don't know any better than the devs that do this for their living

And no scoreboard was here from the start

[deep sand]

Amen

[heavy linden]

?

[hidden sand]

I am willing to bet money the scoreboard wasn't added because of UI difficulties rather than worrying about offending bad players.

Even Battlefront 2, one of the most casual games they've made, had a scoreboard.

If it was truly about that I doubt SWBF2 would have had one.

[uncut bay]

i'm willing to bet money the reason it wasn't added was because a battle royale doesn't need a scoreboard. It was likely very low on the list of priorities when it came to scraping together a proper battlefield game last minute

[hidden sand]

UI difficulties makes a lot more sense imo, because of just how poor the UI has been.

A scoreboard shouldn't be that difficult to make because the data is already there, all a scoreboard does is display it.

I have a feeling score is tracked completely differently though, because the score doesnt line up with the actual xp you recieve.

Which is probably why it took them so long to get it out.

[cedar turtle]

Oh, SURE

[hidden sand]

Why they re-made the sore system makes no sense, there are objectively no improvements with this new one. It's actually worse, because you're credited for even less.

I wonder if it was a thing of not having enough time to port code over, because so many things were re-done for no reason at all.

[copper fulcrum]

Score in this doesn't translate to XP like BF1 and BFV does

[lofty nymph]

when are we getting new guns

[heavy linden]

Thats basically what I am saying to this guy, he previously called the scoreboard toxic

[shy latch]

I'm not gonna answer to this because it'll be too long to write and there are some of your sentences that are no-sense and the last one has nothing to do with what we are discuss about

[heavy linden]

off topic + avoiding + the rest agree with me

[shy latch]

here is a video posted during the Early Access https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lC5elzBjRxw so you can see the scoreboard

[heavy linden]

can someone explain to this person that the scoreboard was added like months after release

I am loosing brain cells trying to explain it to him

I was literally here from the start and there was only a scoreboard for your squadmates

[shy latch]

see? you don't want to understand what I write, I just explained you the reason why I don't want to answer but your conclusion is totally different from my explanation

[heavy linden]

too long? u would have alr typed it

[shy latch]

nope, because you said a lot in that sentence

[heavy linden]

ye I literally destroyed your pathetic arguments all at once

[shy latch]

nope, I simply don't want to answer with a text wall

[heavy linden]

whatever you believe my boy.

[shy latch]

is not my fault if you don't want to understand what I say

[heavy linden]

like arguing about the scoreboard is one thing but believing it is since day one is a whole another level of braindead

[heavy linden]

I understood very well and responded to you but you don't want to respond back because you basically lost the arguement

[shy latch]

I posted you a video, it's 2 minutes long showing you the initial scoreboard

[shy latch]

again you don't want to understand, I litterally wrote you the reason before

[heavy linden]

[foggy halo]

🤔

[heavy linden]

you cant say to a person that they dont understand what you mean when they have literally responded to you and you wont respond back for some bs excuse that you dont have the time

he's gone now ofc🤡

[placid pike]

Can you just drop it?

[heavy linden]

no indeed I cannot sir

[placid pike]

No reason to start offending people

[heavy linden]

I am a realist and I do not offend anyone. Arguing about a topic is one thing but saying that something was there when it wasnt is another

[placid pike]

I don't care about who is right or not, If people start to offend each other about some argument then it's time to drop it. That is the last thing I'll say about it.

[heavy linden]

let me guess he contacted mod mail because he got mad that I destroyed his arguements?

he has been silent ever since

[placid pike]

Doesn't matter, just drop it.

[heavy linden]

as mod you should understand that he is not offended but mad that he lost the arguement

try to see the whole picture first but ok I guess if the bogeyman says it its ok

[runic prism]

Why is there even a manifest map with 128 players on breaktrough wtf is this cancer dice

[heavy linden]

no idea tbf

[jovial quest]

Howdy do everyone

[copper fulcrum]

Currently just fucking around on 128 conquest

[tacit sphinx]

[tribal obsidian]

"We" as in the military or we as in players of the game?

[loud flower]

[tribal obsidian]

Load your SIG ammo into your SIG rifle so you don't have to switch to your SIG pistol

[honest comet]

guys help

how to fire 2 rockets at same time with f35

is it possible?

in description it says they should be fired in pair

[plain dock]

anyone had this bug? I did the kills but its not unlocking https://i.imgur.com/g82oWHD.jpg

[arctic grove]

That only means they subsequently fire one after another in a ‘pair’, but nope you can’t fire 2 AAMs or AGMs at once

[arctic grove]

I don’t believe I l have that. If you really have to try reinstalling your game to fix it (assuming you haven’t already, or restart game/pc/console)

[arctic grove]

I really hope the Vortex NGSW-FC optic comes to the game too

[honest comet]

@arctic grove tnx broski

[arctic grove]

Np man

[rapid moon]

Why does the snap assist feel so strong rn?

[tall yew]

Games in a great spot right now, too bad there so many reddit borgs

[dim hatch]

@serene rivet comms

[loud flower]

Someone PLEASE explain to me how can 16 people camp the two F tower on kaleidoscope
8 people each, the whole area is lockdown for 90% of the game, G is also taken all the time because roof tower campers shoot Recoilless RPG down on the ground and you have a fully crewed hind circling around the damn area and wiping the floor with everyone

[honest comet]

umm im confused, ppl hate this game, i got it yesterday dispite that and its awesome game 😍

[grave prism]

LOL 20 kills in condor, 6 vehicle destroys and my end of round screen with squad was "1 damage repired"

[full burrow]

ok i get alt tabbed every time I get a steam achievment

and it plays a funny sound, but yeah I get alt tabbed, fuck you........

[loud flower]

Welcome to BF42, where your MVP title is an even worse system pick than CoD Vanguard's

[tall yew]

@golden nova Only the Borg minded with no opinions of their own say that. Games good

[honest comet]

yeah i feel its this nowdays kids that arent happy withh anything

just cryin if they dont like one tiny thing

[tall yew]

IQ is dropping. Just stating facts

[arctic grove]

Most people just say it's bad bc others say it lol

[honest comet]

exactly, hope dice dont give up on this game coz im having so much fun

played all cods and tbh all battlefields, cod cant even come close to this game

[dim hatch]

that's because whiny bitchers whione loudest

[tall yew]

The complainers go on reddit and regurgitate the consensus opinion. Its called a borg mind

[honest comet]

i bet its the cod kids

[dim hatch]

"NPCs"

[tall yew]

They have no thoughts of their own. Its the weirdest thing

[honest comet]

tryin to destroy battlefield, remember how it was with bf 5 all talked about it, but in end all found game as really awesome

[arctic grove]

I'm just glad they removed "throwables thrown" lmao

[honest comet]

when it was too late

[dim hatch]

its the real racists that care what sskin color the players are in the fictional video game universe

[dim hatch]

I always excelled at that

[honest comet]

@dim hatch literally bitchin avout female in trailer

like its a frikin game, not ww2 simulator

also i vet there was lot of womeon in ww2

[tough sonnet]

that was a thing? i thought it was "enemies damaged with throwables" or something

[honest comet]

nothing else to excpet from serb lol

people who adore putin

[tough sonnet]

it'll get better i think

[honest comet]

well why u here then lol

[tough sonnet]

last update was better than most, there has to be something good in season 1

[pulsar olive]

Where to see weekly updates?

[arctic grove]

They found boats, new jets and new helis in the game files so I'm optimistic about season 1

[pulsar olive]

In game weekly is bugged\

[dim hatch]

that doesn't matter. its a fuictional world in a fictional time with fictional people.

saying its not really WWII simulator or that thewre were women is the wrong argument.

that's their argument

[honest comet]

bet if they put ingame war against ukraine where he can kill ukrainians, serb would love it

[plucky pebble]

Imagine thinking bf is a war sim lmao

[dim hatch]

countdown is opretty fun

[honest comet]

funny but a lot of ppl dont find difference betwen a game and simulator

[pulsar olive]

What is weekly challenge

[river trench]

Imagine bf being an active game

[honest comet]

it actually is

omfg its cod kis, knew it

[plucky pebble]

But but i played it and its really fun with lots of players!

[river trench]

🤦‍♂️

[loud flower]

Lol

[plucky pebble]

No way you actually said that lmao

[honest comet]

lol

p.s black ops and vanguard were worst fps games i ever played

cold war i mean

[plucky pebble]

I mean you are not wrong about that

[honest comet]

full of cheaters plus graphics looked like 2010

[river trench]

Vanguard could be the worst fps or cod game in history

[honest comet]

and yet none boycott it

but anyway 2042 will be back with players as soon as season1 comes and then all ppl who talked trash will claim they believed in this game lol

[plucky pebble]

Cuz the title says cod

[arctic grove]

Facts

[tall yew]

Yup, every battlefield release.

[honest comet]

anyway inma enjoy the game, after all who cares about kids opinions, as long as there are lobbies to play im happy ^^

[tall yew]

Still laugh at all the NPCs jizzing all over BFV LOL

[honest comet]

yeah lol

the game they said its worst ever but the game was great from start

[plucky pebble]

I mean thats probably why they keep releasing trash and keep saying "we learn from our mistakes"

[indigo rune]

Look at 4s release, was that any better?

[honest comet]

also if u guys play on ps and add me would be cool

nick is crowarrior1

[plucky pebble]

Who said it was better?

[pulsar olive]

Whats the weekly challenge?

[honest comet]

some helmet @pulsar olive

[tall yew]

Rao skin

All the NPCs talking about how great 4 is

Are you kidding me?

[indigo rune]

4's release was not better, maybe even worse than 2042's release

[honest comet]

i tell ya this game has huge potential

[pulsar olive]

I cant see the weekly challenge ingame
so dont know how to get it

[tall yew]

It has huge potential and it's fun right now

[honest comet]

imma check for u

[pulsar olive]

Can someone post the requirements for weekly challenge

[honest comet]

[pulsar olive]

Ok mate

[indigo rune]

It's not even worth it it's just a green helmet

[pulsar olive]

Theres nothing else to do anyways
so i would rather come and complete the weekly
lol

[honest comet]

10 obj neutralized, enemies killed 20 and intel ribbons 3
@pulsar olive

[pulsar olive]

Thank you mate

[plucky pebble]

If they keep the game at 60 bucks not gonna happen

[honest comet]

[indigo rune]

With some updates and hype I beg to differ

[tall yew]

Its coming to gamespass

nice try though.

[honest comet]

anyone wanna squad up?

[indigo rune]

Xbox?

[honest comet]

im on ps5

[loud flower]

Add the melee button to the growing list of non responsive controls of this game
This is borderline unplayable
I want to execute this one guy
I sneak behind
I try to melee
After 3 painful seconds, my knife is pulled but he moves around too much, turns to reload, sees me and blasts me

[tall yew]

gamespass is on pc and xbox

[honest comet]

@indigo rune should be possible tho right?

[plucky pebble]

or when you spawn on a vehicle and cant exit till 1 min lmao

[indigo rune]

I think so, but I'm not on right now

[loud flower]

Yeah, I said growing list, I include that as well
Love to drop from 250+m and just splatter at the end because the game won't allow me to open my chute

[plucky pebble]

Its interesting like what if it just server issues like if we tried it on lan would it be different

[honest comet]

tbh i never had issues ppl speak about lol

u just didnt press it on time lol

[arctic grove]

The game will eventually go on BFV level of sales so yeah it’ll be fine lol

[arctic grove]

The old battlefield melee should’ve stayed, where you don’t have to be right behind someone to melee. Nah, you can get them from either side, behind or even infront of them, like 1 and V (excluding 4 because of that counter knife )

I propose a change to the quote screen. Instead of the quote screen, it could be more like Vs end of round screen wheee it shows the best squad and next best 3, but instead of squads it could elect players the same way 2042 does with the quote screen.

Basically just no quotes but they walk up and stand there, with what they did above them, potentially as well as their title card and title

Just a thought

[loud flower]

But even from behind it did not work, the knife didn't pull out
Best part is that it did show me the interaction hint

[arctic grove]

Can you still be shot mid animations?

[plucky pebble]

fr and bring 5 man squad why 4 this isnt a br

[copper fulcrum]

Yes

[honest comet]

i propose a change also, add mp5 ❤️

[cedar ingot]

game better yet?

[arctic grove]

Hasnt battlefield always had 4 man squads?

[arctic grove]

update 4.0 significantly improved it, worth buying for ~40 dollars

[plucky pebble]

no i believe that changed on bfv or bf1

[cedar ingot]

what about low spec framerate?

[plucky pebble]

its way better

[arctic grove]

Not sure. That depends more so on your rig right about now till the May update adds to the PC improvements made in 4.0

[plucky pebble]

for me it was like a 20+ fps

[arctic grove]

I personally think 2042 should add 8 man squads, but maybe it sounds way better on paper, although right now I don’t really see the problem

[cedar ingot]

on a free weekend i had 13 fps on highest 💀

[plucky pebble]

yeah i play with lots of friends and we always need to make 2 parties or 1 but left out somebody

[loud flower]

PSA : please, for the love of everything sacred in the world of gaming
Don't quit right away when you're downed
I main medic lately and those last three games have been nightmares
I see two downed guys in front of me, I try to revive one, he quits as the animation begins, leaving me confused as of why it's not working (because the game often denies me to begin reviving someone) and when I realise they quit, either I take a DXR-1 to the forehead, either I take a T-28 to the jaw
Even better, I run to a downed duo, they obviously see me coming, they quit as I'm under 5m away
Why
Why would you do this to yourself

[arctic grove]

Only skip rev if nearest medic has been 40 meters away for more than 5 seconds or you’re right infront of a ton of enemies

[heavy linden]

bruh rule number one: always skip revive

[arctic grove]

Sometimes I skip revive instantly on accident lol

[heavy linden]

there is absolutely no point in waiting for revive as the chances are super slim and are not worth your time that could have been spent getting kills

[loud flower]

This is because of people like you that medics are seething when trying to do their jobs

[heavy linden]

I have up to 1.5k hours playing medic combined in battlefield games

[loud flower]

You absolute buffoon, of course you shouldn't skip revive if there is obviously someone coming to you

[frank stratus]

[arctic grove]

If you skip revive too fast you’ll be sitting at the spawn screen for like several seconds, I don’t really see how many kills you’ll get with that time

[heavy linden]

I know everything about medic and I absolutely know that this game is terrible when it comes to revives

[loud flower]

And ?

[dapper river]

combined across all titles
not just for 1 game alone
NGMI

[arctic grove]

Rao really needs this skin in game

[desert elbow]

Damn that’s really nice, great work

[loud flower]

Doesn't matter, if someone is directly coming to you, you're saving yourself the time of respawning somewhere and having to walk ten times the duration of a revive doing absolutely nothing worth skipping the revive

[arctic grove]

His weekly challenge helmet was really great though and hopefully it serves as the basis of future 2042 skins lol

[heavy linden]

you seem really worked up and acting like the hero of the team. No medic is willing to play his role as he should unlike bfv and thats why skipping revive is essential

[arctic grove]

Or are you just impatient?

[heavy linden]

no its statistically not good for my k/d ratio

[desert elbow]

Lmao that statement explains a lot

[heavy linden]

its a joke 🤡

[bitter hill]

it's him, it's the battlwfield guy

[desert elbow]

I’m sure it is

[arctic grove]

I’ve never seen the point of k/d in games where you are inevitably going to die and the only way to keep it positive is act like you die in real life if you get shot

[heavy linden]

I really dont give a shit about k/d, I just know that its not worth the time waiting as you are better off respawning and providing spawn points for your team

[arctic grove]

Yeah you’re right but that only applies if your team already lacks medics anyways

Don’t do that within 10 meters of one who will most likely get to you but is tunnel visioned because there’s 10 revive symbols on their screen at once

[loud flower]

If it was essential the mechanic wouldn't be there in the first place
I'm willing to play my role, that's why I often end up top 5 of revive in the whole lobby

[heavy linden]

yeah obviously not, but we have 'buffoon' over here telling me to wait even if he isnt on range

and bruh this guy really plays the hero of the team

I could have 50x your medic experience

[loud flower]

Wdym not in range ?? What kind of idiot doesn't make the distinction between in range and not in range ?

[arctic grove]

I mean I’m pretty sure regardless of how much time you spent being a medic it’s a fairly simple role to do for anyone

[heavy linden]

you are not even making sense, you are the type of snowflake to be waiting for revives even if the medic isnt even on readable range, absolute annoying fucks to have on your squad

[arctic grove]

Within 20 meters is in range imo, further than that nah just reset

[loud flower]

Are you actually that stupid ?
I mentioned raging against the idiots who quit reviving AS I WAS REVIVING THEM or coming onto them and was FIVE METERS AWAY FROM THEM

[woeful remnant]

I'm tho. usually give my life for that revive

[arctic grove]

[heavy linden]

they are not forced to be waiting for revive it is muscle memory to spam space after you die, so braindead jesus

[woeful remnant]

it's the same xp as a kill and revives are easier

[loud flower]

They waited half of their timeout and there was absolutely nothing around them, if they looked at their screen for 15 seconds without any enemy around and me 20m away and rapidly approaching, they could have waited the extra 5 seconds it would have taken to revive them instead of waiting a minute respawning, walking to a point, only to probably get decimated by a sniper or passing by Bolte anyway

[arctic grove]

Extremely open maps

NTW and bolte existence

Pain

[bitter hill]

your kd?

[heavy linden]

I think 2.4 at most, I am mainly infantry player not a 200-0 vehicle god

[loud flower]

I didn't say they were forced to but the memory muscle thing is bullshit because if memory muscle lapses over 15 seconds then it's no wonder they got downed in the first place if they got that kind of brain latency

[bitter hill]

awesome

I'm probably at...

11

[heavy linden]

bolte or nightbird?

[bitter hill]

0.11

[arctic grove]

I don’t know my kd

But it’s probably semi decent, since I’m an AH-64GX Warchief main

[bitter hill]

I run around trying to shoot bad guys

[heavy linden]

oh ok

I checked mine it is 2.54 which is pretty decent for a infantry main

[bitter hill]

me too bro, Idk my kd

but its bad

[loud flower]

My gosh the latency on the knife pull
Ridiculous
I want to get a goddamn executiong on an unmoving enemy, let me do it goddammit

[arctic grove]

As long as my kills are outweighing my deaths that’s how I measure how good I’m playing

[heavy linden]

yeah its called positive kd

[arctic grove]

Oh

Then mine is probably decent

Although I’m more so just referring to specific games and not k/d which adds up like everything

[heavy linden]

2.87 on my sundance that I main for infantry

[novel flower]

my game do not load

[tawdry cedar]

Probably a good thing

[novel flower]

NO

[arctic grove]

Just a troll

If your game isn’t loading it’s either server side or you. It’s plausible the servers died but restart the game/your console/your pc to see if that fixes it

[slate meadow]

Have they said anything about sorting spawns out the amount of times I get spawner Infront or infantry or tanks/bolts is insane

[arctic grove]

I mean honestly that’s prone to happen in every battlefield

[grim goblet]

Anyone else getting game crashes when you attempt to switch classes?

i've had this occur at least 3 times

[honest comet]

nope

@grim goblet

[arctic grove]

I haven’t had that

But I’m on ps5 and you’re xb1 so it could be a problem over there

[grim goblet]

probably

[fierce peak]

LFG in HZ

[arctic grove]

Does anyone know if pearl is worth playing right now at the moment

Portal*

[wide shore]

Flashback Conquest is kinda fun

[arctic grove]

How about XP and weapon mastery wise ?

[wide shore]

I don’t think official portal servers have caps

They’re the only populated ones anyway

[scenic tartan]

If they don't have two new AOW maps and at least a new bfbc2 and bf3 map for portal with season 1 I will be convinced they have given up on the game

Their original plan was to have a new map and season 1 in march.
Those level designers and gameplay people dont just sit around while engine programmers work on fixes.

They have to have been working on something since January and if it isn't showing in 2042 content then they are just working on the next game

[wide shore]

Hoping the rumor of Panama Canal coming is true. That map is big poggers

[scenic tartan]

Damavand peak hopefully

If I was dice it would be one more medium sized AOW map and one smaller operation locker style AOW map

[spring locust]

Is it possible to play Hazard Zone solo? I cant ever get a game going.

[fallen yarrow]

only if you're in US-East or EU

[spring locust]

Noted. I am so how do I do it?

[grim goblet]

impossible to win Hazard Zone Solo

[somber hatch]

Helo

[arctic grove]

[somber hatch]

😂

Bf4 te

Ftw

[arctic grove]

Ok

[frosty mural]

Possible just have other squads kill each other and put in a ranger in the middle lol

[grim goblet]

XD

[arctic grove]

Both

Or their work has just been postponed; doubt the next major title will be under the same developers if each game has different ones so far to my knowledge

If you ask me, I think their time is being spent on S2, S3 and S4 Maps. It doesn’t make sense to assume the game is abandoned if we only get 1 AOW map, when that’s what was advertised to be in each season

There’s still 3 more that legally must occur

[hearty flame]

Dont forget that theyre also reworking launch maps as well. depending on the extent that means more people tied up on that

[arctic grove]

I really doubt the game will be abandoned either, I also doubt Y1 content will be subpar or minimal. I expect a roadmap or some other visualization of this next year some time soon or right before Y1. Let’s assume DICE has so far been listening to criticisms and complaints about the game (evident by Temporyals datamines revealing small details about the specialist rework as one example), the content in year 1 quite literally cannot be subpar and or minimal depending on player feedback received for Y1 content, I expect DICE to implement as many player requested mechanics or features as we saw with V

If they simply do whatever can possibly be done that players ask for, that’s far from subpar and or minimal

[hearty flame]

Eh depending on who you ask, that IS minimal as its the baseline that people expected with no surprise or greater addition

[arctic grove]

That’s true, but it is a significant improvement and closer to the product players initially wanted which would do well for the game

[hearty flame]

Sure its an improvement but itd be 6 months too late for a lot of them
bare minimum isnt gonna be enough to get a lot of them back

[arctic grove]

That’ll be alright, plenty of people dropped out on V for its own problems, but not only did sticking to the product help the game recover but also tons of sales and good deals on the game

[hearty flame]

I wouldnt say V recovered at all. It had a good 2 month spike with the pacific that was destroyed when the second ttk change rolled around and stayed for the holidays
then it was kinda reverted and then V was kill

[arctic grove]

Since steam player stats seem to be peoples favorites statistic to pull to judge 2042s performance, V averaged 5k+ through summer 2020 alone, far after pacific and when the games support ended officially, that seems like a recovery to me

[copper fulcrum]

Big problem a lot of players had with V is that EVERYTHING had an animation tied to it

[arctic grove]

It’s funny because that’s true if you go check out ea forums when V was the newest battlefield, then that video came out 4 or so months ago saying “2042 bad” cause most animations weren’t in the game lol

[fallen yarrow]

I feel like only the streamers and 'esports' type had problems with most of the animations

[hearty flame]

Im talking about during its supported lifespan though not after. The dripfeed of content, delays, and misappropriated resources slowly killed off what was already a smaller than expected launch base. the pacific was a spike in the community that died in 2 months

[fallen yarrow]

But I agree, they should have sped up the exit animations on the transports at least, if nothing else

[copper fulcrum]

Well here's the thing. Animations killed Only in Battlefield moments.

[fallen yarrow]

Rest of the animations were fine, good even

[copper fulcrum]

I can only recall a single rendezook in BFV and it was just one person.

[fallen yarrow]

I don't understand the obsession with 'only in battlefield moments'

You had plenty of good moments even with the animations

You could still dynamite+jeep, shoot down planes with rockets and tank shells and AT Guns, etc.

Sure BFV was slower paced compared to BF3/4 and 2042, but that wasn't necessarily a bad thing.

[copper fulcrum]

Shooting Down planes with rockets was pretty easy so that got boring pretty quickly

[fallen yarrow]

Also, if you inverted the plane before bailing, it got rid of the exit animation

Or sped it up a lot

[copper fulcrum]

However, it glitches so you lose a lot of momentum. Not only that but you have the pilot loadout so it's just a STEN and a Flare Gun

Also I remember way back then people got mad that Tankers and Pilots were female only

[arctic grove]

When women in battlefield

[midnight nova]

Does anyone know how many players are on bf2042 rn

[arctic grove]

Doesn’t matter to me

[midnight nova]

Idk I want to play so bad but I can’t it takes a while to load in

[arctic grove]

Also there’s no way to tell. There’s only like, one actual real number for the player count and that’s how many people are playing on Steam

[midnight nova]

Damn

[hearty flame]

Theres steam charts for an estimate
then microsoft top 50 charts as well
then thats it

[arctic grove]

The real player count will probably never be publically available, or at least not for like half a decade or so when it’s safe to “declassify” that lol

[midnight nova]

Yeah

[hearty flame]

Id be more worried about regional numbers than overall

[arctic grove]

What’s your region? The game has a player count problem outside of the US and Europe for some reason, I’d expect if the game will go dead in certain regions it’d also go dead in them all

[midnight nova]

Na

[upbeat sand]

Can confirm the only way I can play is 128 conquest and 1 half empty hardcore server

[arctic grove]

Same, if you’re trying to match make into 128 AOW you should be able to pull full servers. But it starts to become random what you get in 64 AOW, portal and hazard zone, most people seem to just stick to 128 AOW

Buy me@it

[midnight nova]

Whenever I manage to get it it’s just half bots

[arctic grove]

Sometimes it does that. But for me I pull full servers unless the match is new

[upbeat sand]

128 breakthrough is dead as well

[arctic grove]

It’s not tho, not in NA, I almost entirely play just that

[upbeat sand]

Well oce is dead as fuck

Only conquest and thats it

[arctic grove]

That’s personally why I believe the game just needs a server browser again

[upbeat sand]

And that 1 week when 2042 rush was connected to the weekly mission where you could actually get into a rush match

[arctic grove]

Some would rather take high ping than not being able to play at all

Also helps when you’re playing really late at night and can’t match make into anything else but the same game on the same team getting steam rolled

[upbeat sand]

I seem to always get a conquest match in the first 3 seconds every time so at least that's nice no matter what time of the day it is

[fallen yarrow]

Game definitely needs a server browser

West coast is pretty dead, even with crossplay on. There's no way to join east coast servers 😦

[arctic grove]

Doesn’t it group NA in one large region for matchmaking?

[fallen yarrow]

Or at least have persistent servers...so once they manage to fill up people can continue playing instead of being kicked back to the menu

[fallen yarrow]

No, a lot of people have been saying it's separate. Which is believable since east coast players say they always find matches. On west coast it's almost impossible to find Hazard Zone or anything other than the flagship modes

Even the 128p modes are usually filled with bots, takes 10-15 mins to fill up...if at all

[hearty flame]

ya love/hate to see it

[midnight nova]

Dude I’m over here wondering why I can’t get in a match and I realized I had cross play off

[wide shore]

[robust patio]

Bf2042 full of shit

This game cudnt save my life if it had the chance to 🫤

[upbeat sand]

i think the sfar gl is the best ar

[long lynx]

What’s your setup ?

[upbeat sand]

drum, red dot, explosives and supressor/default

[long lynx]

Suppressor ? Interesting choice

[upbeat sand]

stealth

i mostly think its good cause of the range and underbarrel is really useful

and if you run out of rockets or c5 you can use AP rounds to finish it of

[runic prism]

If battlefield 3 get’s remastered it will immediately be the most played battlefield lol

[upbeat sand]

we have bf3 remastered at home

[long lynx]

LoL go back and play BF3 i still do. Heck i like portal mode BF3 even if it is only a reskin/fake Knock off at best. For an 11 year old game BF3 holds up that includes it’s console versions. Just a pretty game with solid gunplay and sound design.

Now i want to play portal

[upbeat sand]

and a lot of blue

[long lynx]

Yes but I’m ok with it? Part of the charm at this point. The only negative is suppression

[runic prism]

Yeah it doesn’t even needs a remaster . Just remade for the next gen consoles would be great

With remade i mean like releasing on the newest consoles

I don’t want to jump back on my ps3 lol

[upbeat sand]

yeah that really sucked but we have blue more blue the better

[long lynx]

As a console player myself… BF3 PS3 had 4 pages of servers running when covid hit back in 2020. Was an amazing time… I’m sure servers are still up.

[upbeat sand]

make the entire screen just a blue box

[long lynx]

Blue screen the game

[runic prism]

2020 was such a vibe

[upbeat sand]

and also make the sun glint effect 100% more powerful

[runic prism]

But on ps3 the servers are max 24 players is it not boring . On pc it’s 64 players not ?

[upbeat sand]

ps3 would is piss its own pants if there was 64

[glad mist]

PS3 has 16v16

[runic prism]

Yeah😂🗿

[glad mist]

or 24v24, i forgot

[long lynx]

On tdm rn pretty good ngl suppressor is nice to have

[runic prism]

Consoles from now are now on a pc level it’s getting crazy

[runic prism]

12v12

[arctic grove]

[glad mist]

i was sure it was more lol

[upbeat sand]

dam renewal has at least 2 tanks on A at all times

[arctic grove]

Who else is playing a bit of bf1 till 2042 gets back on its feet

[glad mist]

im getting into modding 3 and possibly 4

trying to port over Zavod into BF3

[arctic grove]

Nice

Man i like 2042 but bf1 is so refreshing

[glad mist]

VU's basically Portals but for BF3, so much more enjoyable and customizable than 2042's Portals

[wide shore]

There’s a special place in hell for crouch spammers

[glad mist]

you mean teabaggers

[lyric atlas]

dolphin diving op

[arctic magnet]

Bf1 is real battlefield game

[wide shore]

No I mean people who spam crouch mid gunfight

[glad mist]

lol

[arctic grove]

Yes

[wide shore]

It’s already hard enough to hit these fuckers with the dogshit aim assist.

[arctic grove]

Bf1 feels like an actual war

[glad mist]

valid strat to increase your spray pattern in BF3 and 4

[lyric atlas]

why do you think military members go to boot camp?

[wide shore]

Apparently to learn to squat 30 times in 3 seconds

[lyric atlas]

to get fit enough to spam crouch during gunfights. perhaps even somewhat unironically true

[wide shore]

To spite me

[arctic grove]

[arctic grove]

What

[arctic magnet]

🤓

[arctic magnet]

Its war

[arctic grove]

Lol

2042 will feel more immersive as a warfare game when everyone gets masked soldier esque skins for all specialists. Although it still has a degree of immersion and a feeling of warfare it is missing some destruction and immersion from everyone looking like soldiers, not…. how the specialists look with some skins

Personal complaints about the game; needs more milsim skins, maps can use better destruction, more guns

That’s it

It’d be cool if the Griffin light tank is in game, with the Russian T15 so 2042 can have IFVs

[arctic grove]

So it’s working good now? If so, fat W

[plucky pebble]

thank god someone said that

[brittle forge]

Enemy player movement generally seems rather floaty tbh in this game

[somber hatch]

Theres nothing like bf4

[brittle forge]

I would think its Mckay’s trait but I’ve seen really hard strafing from specialists like Angel

[arctic grove]

Battlefield 3

[somber hatch]

Also3

Am a pilot

[plucky pebble]

give them covid mask

[somber hatch]

Lol

[arctic grove]

2042s soundtrack is very dystopian, the pre-game ‘speeches’ if you will explain you’re fighting to secure your factions national interests, resources or allies, but I just personally don’t like how all of that setting created by those things feels like it goes out the window when everyone looks identical. It would be fine if we could at least all mask up and look tacticool

[plucky pebble]

yeah i agree would be nice also maybe a different gear like if you are in the us you get like a blueish camo while russian kinda like a greenish

[arctic grove]

You said that earlier

[arctic magnet]

Theres nothing like a battlefield game

[somber hatch]

Yeah

[arctic grove]

Oh there’s the troll

[somber hatch]

Cuz its true

[arctic grove]

Its not true it doesn’t even make any sense lol

Nah he just trolls a lot here

[arctic magnet]

128 players running like call of duty 💀💀💀

[arctic grove]

He’s a troll but damn bro his troll remarks are so stupid it’s funny

[arctic magnet]

Pleople who likes this is the real trolls

[arctic grove]

CoD didn’t invent running with your gun facing the sky

That’s why I have downfield blocked he says stupid shit

As soon as you think that be careful because you never know if some really forgotten PS3 era game did I first

[arctic magnet]

HEAVY GAMEPLAYYYYY

inmersion

[arctic grove]

[arctic magnet]

run around the map like call of duty while 5 vehicles are shooting at you in open field

Call of duty gameplay in battlefield is garbage

[arctic magnet]

Whatever, everything in this game is very bad

[arctic magnet]

the graphics look childish, if only it looked equal to BFV or 4

with those graphics they should put water gun

[arctic grove]

All 2042 has to do is make the maps more color vibrant... but then people would complain that doesnt make it look very grotesque and war-like

So I guess you'll just have to go back to V and or 4 for that

[arctic magnet]

the gameplay of battlefield 5 is much better, the movements look very good visually it's like heavy and fast at the same time

2042 look like robots

[arctic grove]

That doesn't make 2042 bad because it doesn't feel that same way, although I agree with you, BFV has really satisfying movement, that was something that literally was shat on and removed from 2042 for a reason

[arctic magnet]

battlefield 2042 is bad, all this is bad, that game is a joke.

[arctic grove]

seems robotic to reply to simple conversational points with that classic line but alright

[arctic magnet]

I expected a war game, a game like the battlefield has always been. Regardless of the bugs, poor optimization, or lack of content, this game lacks a battlefield. This game has no identity.

[arctic grove]

i guess you could think of it that way, either that or the franchise simply expanding to try something new, up to you

[arctic magnet]

This game is summed up in running like call of duty and shooting yourself like fools. Battlefield was more than that

[arctic grove]

what actually happens when vehicles hit vehicles

[arctic magnet]

battlefield 5 left many things that a battlefield 6 should perfect it.

[clear quail]

vehicle abuse

[tropic geyser]

I think 2042 still has a lotta potential, they just need to make some rather drastic changes

[arctic magnet]

For example, in Battlefield 5, the character is in sync with the ground until you can do a stumble animation. that and many things that needed to be perfected to offer a modern and immersive war game

in battlefield 5 you went flying when a big explosion happened nearby

[arctic grove]

no way, you can stumble? immursive

jk, animations are nice

[arctic magnet]

you raised your foot in the lakes

[arctic grove]

i think itll be fine

[arctic magnet]

the animations of BF2042 is a joke, the players when they run look ugly the movements look silly

[desert elbow]

The graphics are better than Bf4, in most aspects at least. Although bf4 definitely had a lot more props and stuff

[arctic magnet]

NO

[arctic grove]

by now it should be clear what we want of 2042, all that has to happen now is implement whatevers possible wherever its possible, something i dont doubt the devs can and will do

[desert elbow]

I really disagree, the animations are pretty sleek

[desert elbow]

Wdym no, BF4’s are objectively worse a lot of the time

[arctic grove]

yes, 4 looks great for a 2013 game but compared to games coming out just under 10 years later, no

[tropic geyser]

do you think the specialist system would work if it closer resembled overwatch? like, overwatch has atm 3 different categories: DPS, Tank and Support and all the heroes fall under those categories, so could 2042 work if it did the same thing? putting the specialists under assault, support, medic, recon?

[wide violet]

the fact you said this hurts me

[tropic geyser]

and making it so certain weapon types can only be used by certain classes again?

[dapper river]

@arctic magnet Careful buddy, those are some brave, controversial and unique takes that no one else shares! 😳

[arctic magnet]

people think this game is bad because it has bad optimization and bugs. NO this game is bad because it lacks what is a battlefield, in the end the game will be fixed as BF4 but it will continue to be a battlefield without identity

[dapper river]

"game is bad beacuse.... LE BAD?!?"

[tropic geyser]

you're welcome, have a nice day

but seriously, could specialists work if they were specific to each class rather than just universal all around

[arctic magnet]

when we run in battlefield 1 we feel the weight of the weapon and the soldier and as if that were not enough the weapon changes angle when we run it is great

[dapper river]

please, you pansies have no idea what a true "game with no identity" from a once beloved franchise looks like. Just look at cod mobile

[wide violet]

specialists would work if they didnt exist

[arctic grove]

class system never really disappeared, abilities are just how theyre expressed with specialists this time instead of traditional gun and gadget locks, although i think restricting gadgets and guns (when the game adds enough to do this during Y1 content cycle) would be fine too, although that system has its own drawbacks

on the bright side, armor players wont have to worry about shooting a falck, them instantly healing to full HP, then doing this over and over when they get hit, assuming they dont die, while shooting M5 rockets at your side

[dapper river]

you don't "feel" shit bruh it's a video game

[wide violet]

the class system was perfectly fine since 2005

[dapper river]

such noob!!

[tropic geyser]

I mean they do exist and DICE wants to keep them so I'm looking for a compromise is all

[arctic magnet]

BF2042 soundtrack OMG it's fucking ear cancer

[inland creek]

i need help

[tidal flint]

imagine defending 2042

[arctic grove]

2042 soundtrack goes hard and you literally cannot say anything to convince me it doesnt

[arctic magnet]

Bro wtf its that

[wide violet]

theres no compromise, 2042 is a cash grab. its not a BF game

[dapper river]

It, in fact, does.

[inland creek]

i mean i play it is that a bad thing

[arctic magnet]

Tu turunn turo sfodurur wtf

[tropic geyser]

alright then

[arctic grove]

why would you ask if playing 2042 is a bad thing, of course according to words i cannot say for rule reasons that describe people who cannot accept different opinions will say yes its a bad thing

[tidal flint]

@inland creekim hoping youre playing portal

[dapper river]

people forget the shit talking BF3/4's soundtrack got when the games were new lmao. "wtf it's just fart sounds?? where's the orchestra??"

Now across comment sections you'll see "ohhh bf3 OST death of solomon I luuv it 😍 😍 😍"

[arctic magnet]

we have a battlefield like this because the real developers, the veterans, the professionals are no longer in DICE

[tidal flint]

that would be the only reason i would look at 2042

[arctic grove]

just dont buy skins

therell be plenty to unlock

[inland creek]

it was sarcasm

[wide violet]

yeah because the weekly challenges are "content"

[arctic grove]

ive seen some people genuinely become convinced by people over the internet that somethings wrong with them for liking a video game so my bad

[arctic grove]

youre the only one who associated that with weekly challenges, tho

[tidal flint]

@arctic magnet BATTLEBIT REMASTERED

[arctic magnet]

when you capture a sector and that horrible soundtrack plays, you really want to cry

[arctic grove]

question: is battlebit out? if so, why havent i heard about it in like 4 months

[tidal flint]

lol

no they are still doing playtests

[arctic grove]

i fairly confidently believe that when it does release itll do pretty well then its hype will abruptly die and people wont care about it

[arctic magnet]

the historical concept of BF2042 does not attract attention.

[arctic grove]

its just out of spite for this game

[tidal flint]

imagine being a 2042 dev watching this discord bash their work and praising a roblox like battlefield game

[arctic grove]

i dont think any are even here lol

[tropic geyser]

they are, they just stick to general chat though

[tidal flint]

oh they hide from the hate?

[arctic grove]

no lie, i loved listening to bf3/4s soundtracks while i did homework and when i checked the comments thats literally all it was lmfao

[arctic magnet]

a game is like: russia wants to steal all the corn,

that's why it's a game go nonsense

[dapper river]

they're crying all the way to the bank

[tropic geyser]

yeah I'd say they just don't wanna deal with it

not like they can do anything immediately about it after all

[tidal flint]

resign..... lol

[arctic grove]

i'd "hide" from hate too if (word to describe people who have not touched grass in years and probably live below it) bombarded me 24/7 and then sent personal threats

[tidal flint]

the internet is a weird place

[tropic geyser]

it's the same with the halo community, 343 devs don't interact with the community because of how toxic they are

[tidal flint]

makes sense

[tropic geyser]

guy even showed up to one of the community managers house at some point as well

[tidal flint]

imagine putting in effort tho.... they would make way more money from that but smooth brain is a thing

shit really??

[arctic magnet]

Please DICE Next BF game: BATTLEFIELD VI

Heavy gameplay like bf4-1 and BF4 graphyc style its the basic...

[arctic grove]

thats more so up to you to discern wether or not its the developers faults

[dapper river]

both games are in a similar boat

[tropic geyser]

mhm, happened pre infinite

[dapper river]

"hmm yes let's go from numbered sequels to roman numerals, because that's not fucking annoying in the slightest"

[arctic grove]

[arctic magnet]

Battlefield 6 thats it

no 2042 downgrades

[arctic grove]

vi would probably be cold war setting lmao

[arctic magnet]

2042 copies from call of duty

[arctic grove]

gta copies from saints row

[tidal flint]

i hope the original infinity ward comes back to help mw2 like they did with 2019 mw

[dapper river]

i knew it, those talentless hacks at rockstar

[tropic geyser]

call of duty copies from everyone but never commits to it so all of their new features just play like gimmicks

[dapper river]

fucking

LOL

[arctic grove]

i honestly dont even know if its true or not just reminded me of it when he said that

[dapper river]

tell them to stop working on Apex then kek

[tropic geyser]

wait

[tidal flint]

all of them arent only on apex

[tropic geyser]

Respawn helped MW19?

[arctic magnet]

2042 players

[tidal flint]

@tropic geyserlong story short. the original devs of mw2 left because of activision then made respawn

[dapper river]

It's kind of entertaining to troll but he's like a broken record at this point, just saying the totally UNIQUE and BRAVE opinions a large majority of the community has had since the beta

[tropic geyser]

I know that I'm talking about them coming back to help with MW19 like Uber said

[tidal flint]

for 2019 mw some devs came to help make the modern warfare name worthy again

[arctic magnet]

👆 Triple a next gen game

[kind geyser]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/824625022408196113/834448788188954734/image3.gif

[tropic geyser]

if we get another Battlefield can they bring back BFV building

[tidal flint]

thats why modern warfare was the first good cod game since bo2

[tropic geyser]

mhm

[desert elbow]

You don’t like Rockstar too much?

[tidal flint]

wouldnt blame him

[arctic magnet]

this franchise was beautiful,

https://youtu.be/FZNdtA1Pp6I

[tropic geyser]

I still like cod for what it is though

I can just have blind fun in it, sometimes that's all you need

[arctic grove]

plus they always have really good campaigns, imo at least

[dapper river]

i mean real talk, modern Cockstar sucks donkey doodoo. Just look at the state of GTA V Expanded and Enhanced, GTA+, and RDO

[tidal flint]

lol

oh and the gta remasters

[arctic grove]

like we can talk all day about how historically inaccurate vanguards campaign is but i can still sit there while bored and watch a playthrough of it and be intrigued

[desert elbow]

RDO is really fun although it definitely needs more content and Expanded and Enhanced is fine since it’s free

[dapper river]

I totally forgor 💀 , I memory-holed those because of how fuckin awful they are

expanded and enhanced is $20 for campaign + multiplayer, m8

[desert elbow]

Not if you already have the last gen game

[dapper river]

i think they'll end the "sale" soon and raise the price to $40

[tidal flint]

@arctic grovei like how both ww2 cod games just feel like youre playing with a block of cheese

[tropic geyser]

one thing I do admire cod for though is they have held a consistent identity accross most of their games even though they've shifted in focus from it

the series began as a campaign first experience, and as much as people focus on the multiplayer their production value for their campaigns is still up to standard imo

[dapper river]

except for cod mobile, what the fuck kind of mishmash zoomer raimbow vomit gachashit F2P garbage is that?

[tropic geyser]

aside from a couple entries, I didn't like BO3 or Vanguard and BO4 didn't even have a campaign due to time constraints and adding a BR

[tidal flint]

bo3 was only good for the zombies\

pavlov zombies tho....cant beat it

[dapper river]

it also had great modding tools, was I believe the last cod to do so.

[tropic geyser]

it was

[tidal flint]

yep

[tropic geyser]

I wish BO4 had modding tools

[tidal flint]

i hated bo4 so much

[tropic geyser]

I liked BO4 more than BO3

[tidal flint]

it just looked dumb as hell

[tropic geyser]

BO3 and IW were trying to copy Titanfall but not committing to it

so the wall running and advanced movement is really clunky

[dapper river]

Most games don't release mod tools or SDKs these days because it costs too much for them to have to develop and test them for public release, and they see no returns because people would just make/download modded content instead of buy MTX cosmetics

[arctic magnet]

Call of duty multiplayer is garbage, still alive thanks a battleroyale

[tropic geyser]

and most of the time not even needed

[tropic geyser]

but gun go shooty shooty bang bang

and that makes my monke brain happy

[dapper river]

See I like that too, but get too good and SBMM actively tries to make the game as unfun for you as possible

[tropic geyser]

true

[arctic grove]

if youre referring to mw19 yeah ordinary multiplayer is pain but ground war is nice

[tropic geyser]

I prefer HC > Regular in MW19

[sinful ore]

may update? not yet?

[arctic grove]

nahh not yet man

[sinful ore]

damn I cant wait

[arctic grove]

no details on it either, strangely

[dapper river]

hardcore made me grow some grey hairs i stg, Played it to make the grind for pistol camos more bearable

[sinful ore]

maybe season 1 gonna be released on september

[arctic magnet]

They canceled BFV content and need for speed development for that game 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀

[arctic grove]

technically v was already complete

[dapper river]

we're only 7-8 days into May, they'll release the may update early this month (between may 20 and 31 )

[arctic magnet]

What??? Hahaha

[arctic grove]

everything in vs roadmap was eventually added and additional content wasnt necessary if dice could simply go to work on the next project

[dapper river]

Need for speed hasn't been good since the 2015 reboot anyways

[arctic grove]

it is unfortunately not about content as much as it is for profit

[arctic magnet]

battlefield v is missing like 80% content

Pacific war its not the 100% ww2

[dapper river]

Forza Horizon totally mogged NFS's niche now

[arctic grove]

yes but listen, thats all the roadmap said would be added, so its technically not missing content

it wouldve made sense to include the soviets, french and italians in a ww2 game but meh

like i said, it was more profitable and contributed resources to a new game because V was legally allowed to be dropped

i honestly feel for the bfv crowd, so much datamined content that never made the cut, that would drive me insane

[iron blade]

We had soviet cosmetics in datamining since launch

[arctic magnet]

they removed the BFV content because of 2042 💀💀💀

[iron blade]

And we have not had soviets in a aaa ww2 fps in a while

So it just really sucks

[arctic grove]

temporyal is datamining a LOT of things i'd like to see in 2042 and i hold on to some hope that most if not all will make the cut since year 1 hasnt began yet, which leaves a lot of potential for it to be added

[iron blade]

Yeah, maybe a soviet expansion in 1942 portal

[iron blade]

And no, i am not gonna recognize vangaurd as a ww2 game

[tidal flint]

oh no heres the ww2 master

[iron blade]

Name checks out

[arctic grove]

okay now that i think about it, adding the soviets and maybe italians/french to 1942 portal... would be a really good way to make up for V

[white geyser]

Portal is not complete, we need the previous battlefield games to be added in the portal

[iron blade]

Yeah, not sure if the italians were in 1942, cant remember, soviets were definitely

[arctic grove]

hopefully thats the plan for it, to have more games or additional content for existing portal games added

[iron blade]

Tbh i kinda like the portal lineup we have now, has everything we kinda need from all eras. Maybe add 2142 for futuristic and we are good to go. Just add more content for the titles we already have

Would allow them to stretch portal to newer titles ig idk

[white geyser]

1942, 2042, and 2142 is missing in the portal, same goes for BF4

[arctic grove]

you dont really need bf4 to be honest, a lot of content from 4 is in 3

[iron blade]

Eh i can do without bf4, bf3 does the job fine. Bf4 maps? Sure, but guns and vehicles are the same

[white geyser]

What you just said is stupid

[iron blade]

Never liked bf4 felt too much like bf3 to really stand out. Kinda like a BF3.5, still a decent game

[white geyser]

You cannot add BF4 in BF3 to mixed it up

[arctic grove]

i prefer bf3s US and RU character models anyways, plus you arent missing out on much besides the China team and vehicles lol

[foggy tundra]

i talked a portal dev, 2142 is most likely not to be added

sadly

[dapper river]

[white geyser]

Well that’s just messed up

[dapper river]

2142 status: de-canonized??

[foggy tundra]

ye i was in vc with him before he left the server, bro was like, when i think of portal, i think of games that took place before 2042

so youll prob see every other bf in portal except 2142

[arctic grove]

okay that makes sense tbf

[foggy tundra]

and bf4 + 2042 canonized 2142

so dont worry about that

[arctic grove]

what i meant was a lot of bf4.... was in 3

[dapper river]

Sad, I was hoping portal would be like a "everyone is here!" type mode with stuff across all mainline battlefields, maybe even battlefield heroes for lulz.

[iron blade]

Bf1 portal is smth I would like, would probably butcher my baby tho

[foggy tundra]

bf4 is just bf3 part 2

ye id love to see a bf1 portal

[white geyser]

That’s it I want BF4 in portal, like I said you cannot add BF4 content in BF3

[arctic grove]

[white geyser]

Need that game in the portal and bring back the good maps in BF4

[dapper river]

world war II was just world war I part 2

[foggy tundra]

[iron blade]

Big brain

Ww2 was just ww1 with mods tbh

[foggy tundra]

bf2042 is just the prequel to 2142

[arctic grove]

bf1 maps, bf3 classes and vehicles would be dope in portal

[foggy tundra]

id love to see a nekomata prototype in 2042

that speeder is fucking lit

it has a fucking grenade launcher

[iron blade]

Bf1 triplanes vs jets

[foggy tundra]

and tv missiles

AND PLASMA CANNONS

LIKE BRUH

[tropic geyser]

So something that's always puzzled me

[white geyser]

Need tv missile for the Wildcats tank secondary weapon

[tropic geyser]

They went from BF4 to BF1, because BF1 is WWI, fair enough

But how tf do they get WWII from BFV

[white geyser]

Bullcrap

[iron blade]

Also i came across someone today on argonne that managed to glitch into inaccessible areas and was exploiting the shit outta the broken mechanics lol

[tropic geyser]

And why V, why not 5

[iron blade]

Becuz the mainline number titles are supposed to be kinda the next big steps for the franchise

[arctic grove]

the way i look at it is V for victory, which was a symbol Churchill had put up after it was announced ww2 ended and the allies were victorious

[foggy tundra]

oh and about 2142

[iron blade]

Because V signifies “V for Victory” , an expression during ww2

[foggy tundra]

theyd have to remake the entire map, assets etc just to implement it into portal

[tropic geyser]

Huh, interesting

[iron blade]

Yeah what he said, he type faster

[foggy tundra]

as the engines are faaaar too different

[white geyser]

Tell them to do it

[tropic geyser]

Lol what if they called the next BF game BF5

And said the V in BFV was an actual V

[foggy tundra]

bruh just play the 2006 2142 with me

[iron blade]

But comedically the gesture Churchill did for V for Victory was also the same gesture for up your ass

[tropic geyser]

Lol

[foggy tundra]

based

[iron blade]

Churchill was a based giga chad

[foggy tundra]

i think im making a mistake

im installing windows 11

[dapper river]

this is why I will always refer to it as "Battlefield Vee" because I fuckin hate when series switch to roman numerals for no reason
MGSVee, Resident Evil Vee-eye-eye, and so on

[tropic geyser]

They tore down his statue tho

[foggy tundra]

sadge

[iron blade]

Hopefully the next ww2 bf title will take the conflict seriously for once. We have not had a serious AAA ww2 title since w@w it feels like

[jagged snow]

Guys is the game down? stuck on the boat loading screen

[white geyser]

I don’t play on the pc

[iron blade]

Ik, bullshit imo

[arctic grove]

facts, but its hard to really try to show some of the grimace of ww2 without landing in hot water, devs probably dont wanna risk losing profit off that

[foggy tundra]

everyone says they want a historically accurate game

[dapper river]

nobody can play 2142, didn't EA shut down the revival project a while ago? lol. Played it back then and man, the gameplay did not age well at all.

[foggy tundra]

but no one will ever actually want to play it

[foggy tundra]

reclamation

[tropic geyser]

I never played cod WWII but I take it it wasn't a good take on WWII?

[coarse zephyr]

Facts

[foggy tundra]

project

[iron blade]

Yeah, but sometimes u gotta just say “fuck what the press thinks” and go balls to the walls, sometimes it could turn out well

[arctic grove]

yeah, if cod or battlefield did as authentic as possible to ww1 or 2, it wouldnt survive because those games live on a lot of content

[iron blade]

Hell no, u had the grim reaper running around

[white geyser]

BF4 timeline is set 2020 and unlike BF3, BF4 vehicles is more updated by adding more weapons attachment

[foggy tundra]

like most people wouldn'tbe able to handle playing the atrocities that occur in war

[tropic geyser]

I see

[foggy tundra]

hell even MW drew a shit ton of flak for the airport level

[iron blade]

Would be cool to see a full length ww2 german campaign, kinda like that Generation War TV show

[tropic geyser]

I'm liking cod 1 and united offensive so far as WWII games

[iron blade]

But noo too offensive

[arctic grove]

welllllll i mean they were pretty atrocious

[iron blade]

Obviously, but do a conflicting story between the ideals and morals of the good germans, and the hardline u know what.

[arctic grove]

ye i gotcha, we'll have to see if anyones up to it some time in the future for now

[foggy tundra]

wasnt there a battle in ww2

where 2 german armies fought eachother towards the end of ww2?

[iron blade]

Like maybe have conflicting views within the until, u have some guys that are just wanting to fight for their familes, not necessarily because they agree with mustache man. And have the mindless supporters. And their conflicting ideas on the war and whether what they are doing is right

[foggy tundra]

id love to see that in a game

[iron blade]

Yes it was US and wehrmacht vs S.S. at some castle

[foggy tundra]

castle itter

thats what it was

May5th 1945

[iron blade]

Could make for some cool psychology, moral shit ya know

[foggy tundra]

it was US wehrmacht ss versus the ss

[iron blade]

Ye that was it

[foggy tundra]

one of the strangest fights

stillwould love to see something similar in gaming

[iron blade]

A guy named Qxir did a vid on it, pretty good, suggest to watch it

[iron blade]

If they had the S.S. In portal u could probably do that lol

Normal germans vs ss

[foggy tundra]

prob not

they will probably do germans vs germans standard

[iron blade]

Yeah

[tropic geyser]

Btw what ever happened to hardline

[iron blade]

God i cannot imagine identifying friend from foe

[iron blade]

Gone, reduced to ashes

[inland creek]

portal reminds me of super mario maker

[tropic geyser]

Damn

[iron blade]

Probably 1 full server for us and eu

[desert elbow]

Post Scriptum is pretty accurate I’d say

[iron blade]

Very, HLL is hella good too, cant wait for eastern front

[tropic geyser]

Post Scriptum, Beyond the Wire and Squad are all good if you wanna take things seriously

[desert elbow]

HLL is amazing, the graphics are great too

[tropic geyser]

And they're accessible enough to jump in and play

Arma is generally better for a mil sim experience, but you need to be apart of the specific internal communities to do so

[desert elbow]

Beyond the Wire looks really epic but I heard there’s not many players sadly

They recently added ANZACs though which is epic

[tropic geyser]

Compared to Squad and Post Scriptum no

WWII and Modern are just more popular than WWI it seems

[desert elbow]

Definitely

[tropic geyser]

I'm also sad WWIII went to shit

[desert elbow]

I hope Beyond the Wire is successful so there can be more of a market for WW1 games

[tropic geyser]

Could have been a nice alternative to Battlefield but nooooo

[desert elbow]

Wdym?

[tropic geyser]

The game WWIII

[desert elbow]

Oh was that the half strategy half FPS game?

[tropic geyser]

Ye

[desert elbow]

Ohhhhh wait you said WWIII, mb thought you meant WWII

I heard WW3 is really good now though, why don’t you like it?

[tropic geyser]

I haven't played it recently but before it was just developers not delivering pretty much

[desert elbow]

I heard they fully redid the game

Now it’s gonna be F2p and stuff

If that’s the case I’ll probably give it a go sometime

[tropic geyser]

There's also no servers in my region

[inland creek]

it should not be f2p

[tidal flint]

they gotta work on the servers, optimization and add content thats all

[desert elbow]

Why not?

[arctic grove]

It’s not going to be F2P

[tidal flint]

it is going to be f2p

they just delayed it due to internal issues

[shadow lichen]

Anyone wanna play battle field 2042?

[arctic grove]

They didn’t say it was going to be F2P, there’s only rumors about it being on game pass

[foggy tundra]

xbgp isnt f2p

as youre still paying to play it
