battlefield-2042

[next onyx]

If I can play a cod game and experiment again I'll be happy.

I don't think mw2 will get rid of its sbmm cause it gets them money so I'll probably play the beta and not get the full product.

[south drum]

I’m just sad with how BF2042 came out of the gate bc this was the only game I could have seen challenging warzone for the king of the AAA shooter titles

[honest comet]

oh yea dark souls op games

i played elden ring as well but on pc

was awesome also

[copper fulcrum]

My name will stand true

[south drum]

Anyways I’m off for the night good luck in yalls future games

[queen lance]

And it probably will someday
But not right now of course lol
But maybe in a year or a few months

[honest comet]

sbmm should be burned

thats how much cod listen to its playerbase

[mossy badge]

have you ever played dragon age inquisition ?

[grizzled whale]

nope

[honest comet]

if it was bf oh no there would be so much hate

by playin better u get rewarded to be smacked by hackers lol

[mossy badge]

hmmm day before yesterday I saw a video in which a dude made dragon age inquisition locations in unreal engine 5 and it looks beautiful

[copper fulcrum]

I made a dirt box in Minecraft before but no one is complimenting my beauty

[honest comet]

my 2 favourite games of all times are bad company 2 and cod 4 modern warfare 2009

[copper fulcrum]

Right now 2042 is pretty high up there

[mossy badge]

My most favourite game is black ops

[honest comet]

dope game

[mossy badge]

BF1 too

[honest comet]

guess im old so still have those u know nostalgic feeling towards games from that period like bad company 2

oh also bf1 was such amazing and original game

@mossy badge nobody ever did ww1 before as AAA title

[mossy badge]

I don't think anyone can do it better than the dev team of bf1

[honest comet]

and that feeling of that game where u actually felt the ww1

[mossy badge]

that game is insane

[honest comet]

i would say way ahead of its time

[mossy badge]

fact

I don't know how a game that looks that good work on our pc

[honest comet]

incredible, i actually played it on ps4

i also remember bein confused why everyone hated bf5 lol

and it had best graphics out of any other game, and great controls, destruction everythin

[mossy badge]

Bfv also looks really good but i feel like cod world at war was more atmospheric 😂

[honest comet]

played it liked it

campaigne was awesome in world at war

old game lol

i mean bf5 rose up when they added ivo jima

basicly pacific part of multyplayer

[copper fulcrum]

World at War is greyscale the game

I did really enjoy the game tho

[honest comet]

but yeah i tell ya in like 2 months everyone here gonna praise 2042 lol

just wait till season 1 drops and they fix rest of problem that left

[copper fulcrum]

It had an amazing atmosphere but the multiplayer maps didn't exactly feel like some kind of WWII battleground, at least the arenas. The ones with vehicles did.

Castle feels strange, it's almost like a horror game when it's just 1v1 or just you.

[honest comet]

lol tru

[copper fulcrum]

The main menu also doesn't really feel like a war game, more of just a horror sequence. Still really fucking good and cool though

[honest comet]

thing with cod and bf is that cod will always have faithfull and bigger fanbase

[copper fulcrum]

tmw WaW's atmosphere is scarier than actual horror-based games

[honest comet]

cod can sell wrapped crap and have 50k plus players

[copper fulcrum]

Indeed

[honest comet]

i swear if this game was cod

[copper fulcrum]

Look at Vanguard for example

[honest comet]

people would say best cod game ever

they would talk about destruction,vehicles and so on lol

in cod they give them some walls that smash and they allready hyped

while from bf they expect miracles every time

i literally saw tons of streamers playin vanguard and praising destruction on it its bit sad @copper fulcrum

[copper fulcrum]

pre-worn wood palettes

A Martial Art's test has more destruction than Vanguard does

[honest comet]

hahahah

exactly , but listen in 20 years they managed to make doors bein able to be smashed

give then 10000000 credit for that insta

[copper fulcrum]

Remember MW19s best mechanic was fucking doors?

OH MY GOD, YOU CAN SLIGHTLY PUSH A DOOR FORWARD TO SEE THROUGH A CRACK

[honest comet]

they dont understand how hard it is to make game like battlefield

[copper fulcrum]

Not that it fucking matters that you can do that when every player is slide hopping around corners and through doors

[honest comet]

its ez to make maps with 3 frikin roads and 2 houses where u can only open doors

[copper fulcrum]

Just put in CTF-2Fort, bam

[honest comet]

hahh

double standards all the way

[next onyx]

I prefer door bashing and just have it like that.

[honest comet]

but hey now u can peek trough door

best game eveeer

i wonder how many bugs and mistakes would it be if cod tried to make anything as bf since they struggle with maps of size of my yard lol

[grand wagon]

This game still dead

[grizzled whale]

was never dead

[scenic tartan]

battlefield 4 is unbelievable to go back to

[grand wagon]

is the game gotten better

[grizzled whale]

yes

[hardy leaf]

was never alive

[grand wagon]

are updates any good

[dusky blade]

Would’ve been so good if MW19 didn’t have sliding

[hardy leaf]

not good enough to bring back players

[dusky blade]

Actually have some semblance to the older games

[grand wagon]

cause I wanted to try it out again

[grizzled whale]

sliding in cod is so much better than dolphin dive

[dusky blade]

Bring back no slide and no dolphin dive

[dim blade]

@copper fulcrum Nice name

But why?

[dim blade]

Yeah but if you got a kill while dolphin diving on the final killcam

Much better

[dusky blade]

True name ngl

[uncut bay]

some people gotta hate, just a way of life

[dim blade]

id wait for the beta before straight up slamming a game

[uncut bay]

i'm excited. If it's anything like the last modern warfare i'll enjoy it

[grizzled whale]

Ignore toniq's opinions, he just hates on games with extremely invalid arguments

[strong rampart]

Where's all the breakthrough servers at? Nothing but conquest and portal here in Aus

[dusky blade]

2042 bad

[strong rampart]

People like you make bad worse

[dim blade]

MW19 was the best cod out of the last 3 imo

At the very least the most refined and polished. If MW II follows suit its gonna be a great game

[dusky blade]

Man, the game launched with an unfinished side mode, and the mp had 6 maps with like, 5 modes

[uncut bay]

yeah for sure, it set the bar high and no cod since has been able to meet it

[grizzled whale]

you just continuously use false claims to base your opinion on dont you

[dim blade]

It was the last COD that actually went gold before release

[grizzled whale]

MW2019 launched with 25 maps, of which 10 MP maps with 4 night variants

[dim blade]

BOCW and Vanguard do not feel like finished games

[grizzled whale]

they are just bad copies of mw2019

[uncut bay]

i remember laughing when i first saw cold war, it genuinely just looked like a plastic replica

[grizzled whale]

cold war looks and feels like a mobile version of mw2019

[uncut bay]

audio was flat, visuals were meh

that's a good way to put it

[dim blade]

Watch Sledgehammer copy MW II engine when its their turn to make a game again

i swear if they make a 3rd game in the weird WW2 arc

[dusky blade]

6 6v6 maps

[grizzled whale]

10*

[dusky blade]

Variants are the same maps lol

[grizzled whale]

we already had this discussion and you lost then too

[dusky blade]

No we didn’t lol

And how do you lose when referencing stats

Fact of the matter is MW19 launched with the lowest number of 6v6 maps ever

[grizzled whale]

1. Arklov peak
2. Azhir cave
3. Eurphrates bridge
4. grazna raid
5. gun runner
6. hackney yard
7. piccadilly
8. rammaza
9. St. Petrograd
   Okay my bad its 9, shoot house released a month later

[dusky blade]

Wasn’t arklov peak 10v10?
Same with the bridge

[grizzled whale]

you have said this before, and no it wasnt

[dusky blade]

Just looked it up, it was

[grizzled whale]

"no we havent"

[dusky blade]

But it was ported over to 6v6

[grizzled whale]

no, it was 6v6 at launch and changed to 10v10 when that was added

we had this same discussion before and you lost back then too

[dusky blade]

9 is still tied with the lowest of all time regardless lmfao

[grizzled whale]

just like every other discussion we had about mw2019

doesnt matter, it just proves that you like you use bullshit claims to back up your opinion

[dusky blade]

I’m admitting it was 6v6 on launch, still lowest amount of maps of all time

Actually, EVER

[uncut bay]

who actually cares though

stupid discussion

[crisp junco]

What is this about?

[chilly jacinth]

its a pointless discussion

[rose osprey]

So what's the latest update on 2042? Is it decent now? Haven't played in months

[strong rampart]

Moat people still whining the game is broke and very poor.

Yes its still got a lot of bugs but what doesnt? There's still lots of people playing but i feel the people are what makes it worse.

[topaz field]

Hmmm I just went on YouTube and saw hackers post videos of the hacks they are using on PC. It's currently undetected by 2042

[sly leaf]

Man, battlefield now is such a far cry from its glory days

[topaz field]

This is a reason why I refuse to play PC fps someone always ruins the fun

[honest comet]

lol hackers are on every game

u cant ever remove them

also i havent noticed even one

[river trench]

[tepid agate]

I was in a game on Thursday with what I thought was a hacker. He was on renewal.

He went under the map, layed there, put a spawn beacon and activated his drone right near the enemy base.

Just kept spawning on the beacon and floating into the base.

[topaz field]

Now this the reason why I dislike cross play feature btwn PC and console

[honest comet]

just turn it off

[topaz field]

Ahh that's a glitch lol. This what I saw on YouTube is a hack dude just headshots everything and another video the guy has like a blue box around enemy

[tepid agate]

Goodluck finding a game with crossplay off lol

[honest comet]

i play with crossplay off and find game always lol

[topaz field]

Exactly 😫 I'm on old gen so might not be too bad

I can't find a PS5 for cheap so gotta enjoy my old gen

[tepid agate]

I use ps5 with crossplay on. Still get lobbies with bots and mostly pc players. With it off I don't dare to try

[honest comet]

u can try, depends what time of day u play

[tepid agate]

Yrah that's the problem not enough people playing the game at the moment need special times or days to do it

[honest comet]

from like 9 in morning till 2 in morning u wont have bots

[topaz field]

I'm in USA Eastern might not be so bad

[honest comet]

also ppl are just waitin for season 1

when it drops u will se huge player base comin back

[topaz field]

Sometimes I play with Saudi discord mates at like 3am very rough so much wait time full of bots too 😫

[tepid agate]

I doubt players will stay after season one

[topaz field]

I hope so , I'm just worried about the server lag 😫😫

[tepid agate]

Just like 4.0 it spiked out of curiosity now fading

[honest comet]

nah i speaked with lot of friends that also have the game

and all said they will be back as soon it drops

[topaz field]

I've been playing since early access non stop play I'm a big addicted 🤣

I just wish bf4 had such fast gun play

[honest comet]

im also addicted lol

[tepid agate]

I played daily but lost interest with the direction they are pushing the game. Just log on for Thursday for the weekly mission

[honest comet]

thing is they have to fix issues first and then drop season 1

bf usually have slow starts and later be stunning

[tepid agate]

I believe 4.0 was a massive gameplay improvement since the launch state

[topaz field]

Yeah nothing wrong we all will lose interest at some point. Always happen. It was the same for me with BF1 and BFV I would play alot then stop for a couple months

[honest comet]

@tepid agate it was massive

[arctic grove]

Fr

[topaz field]

Def big improvement I agree

[honest comet]

after update 5.0

they will drop season one

[topaz field]

I'm just hoping we get back manual lean(peek from cover)

[tepid agate]

The problem is specialists, in my opinion. I don't see how new content is going to sustain a large number of player back.

[honest comet]

idk but i dont mind them

[tepid agate]

Players will come back to test it just like 4.0

[honest comet]

dont really care about speciallists

[topaz field]

two features I want from Hardlines is when RPG shoot at you , you hell out RPG and another is shooting from through windows

[tepid agate]

We must ask ourselves, what is the newest content under the while battlfied umbrella?

It's 2042, it's maps, weapons and features

[honest comet]

i just adopt to new system and thats it

[arctic grove]

Tbh I like the game the way it is rn, am hyped for new content but hope they don't change too much about the gameplay

[honest comet]

like i dont see why ppl hate specialists so much

[topaz field]

People cry about specialist too much I've been playing bf since BF2. Don't get me wrong, put them in a class system and gadget lock. Angel just ruins the game for me honestly 🤣

[honest comet]

if someone can explain me the reason please

[tepid agate]

4.0 was a massive improvement in terms of GamePlay which can new be combined with the "newest content". But players still are more attracted to bf1 and bfv but they haven't had new content for years

[honest comet]

p.s rn im playin crossplay off and i have full player lobbies

[topaz field]

People want generic soldiers

[honest comet]

@topaz field why is that even important? lol

[tepid agate]

Because specialists have stripped away the battlefield DNA. It's a new direction they are trying to guide the game.

[honest comet]

i mean whats wrong with having operators

who cares if its random soldier or limited operators

[topaz field]

I dunno I think some of the specialist are cool. I mainly play Sundance

I think what's needed is class system + gadget lock. Thats why people hate the specialist system

[tepid agate]

If season 1 can't sustain a higher player number than BF1, then that's when I truly believe its over

[honest comet]

every game has operators nowdays, thats modern gaming

[tepid agate]

Exactly

[honest comet]

and its fun to collect skins and stuff

[topaz field]

I guess so

[acoustic oar]

BF was a boots on the ground shooter. Sure you could do crazy stuff but the classes looked like normal soldiers and not some clowns on a vacation. The setting also does not look like an apocolypse. It looks like a summer weekend with a few clowns using some guns.

[tepid agate]

This is why battlefield fans loved Battlefield, for being Battlefield, bot like the other games lol

[topaz field]

Well for you it is. I'm a bit older don't really care about skins 🤣

[olive lake]

All I care about is them fixing the awful progression system

[topaz field]

I actually dislike the tier 1 skins I have many unlock don't use it

[olive lake]

Every other thing I'm okay with. Even the specialists

Make them less goofy obviously but yeah my point stands

[foggy halo]

Maxthewicked100

[tepid agate]

I'm not sure the state of the game can sustain more numbers without a class system

[foggy halo]

specialists

[honest comet]

ik what bf is i literally played all titles

[topaz field]

Less bugs, more gritty feel for season one, gadget lock, remove body armor from Angel , fix aim assist. Bring back alot of cbq and infantry base gameplay the people will come back

I want that night wood map from Hardlines so badly it was sooo good 😫

[honest comet]

and im older as well 29 years so yeah and i dont care about what soldiers there are, why is everyone so judgy about bf and lets other game makers do whatever they want and praise it

[olive lake]

I feel they need to get rid of progression caps to see folk come back

[arctic grove]

Wdym with fix aim assist

[tepid agate]

Launching with bugs and stuff is a common pattern with them it seems

Stripping away a class system is not

[olive lake]

Or at least make it reasonable and not bullshit

[tepid agate]

Turned a lot of players away

[foggy halo]

@south drumis that you in the photo?

[olive lake]

They shafted everyone who bought the game for solo/coop too. No way to get anything as it is now

[honest comet]

people should stop being that sensitive lol

[topaz field]

For console my aim be fking up crazy when I go from portal to aow. The aim assist is ganky at times

[tepid agate]

People speak out because they care

[olive lake]

Folks may hate me for my pve preferences but thats the honest damn truth

[honest comet]

i care as well about the game, but as i said other game makers can do operators and anything and ppl praise it, same ones they talk about bf changes

[arctic grove]

Oooh

[tepid agate]

The day people stop complaining is because the game is a success or because they don't care anymore

[honest comet]

we literally speak about skins

[olive lake]

I WANT this game to be good but pushing folks away isnt the answer

[honest comet]

as its major issue

[tepid agate]

It's good people have different opinions. No need to hate on people who differ to you

[honest comet]

do u see how this silly sounds

[topaz field]

IMO the issue is the companies rushing the Devs that's the main problem. Nothing can be done about it

[sly leaf]

This game will never be good because its a soulless shell of what Battlefield used to be.

[olive lake]

Whats more silly are those who gatekeep others from playing how they want to

[acoustic oar]

the skins and specialists are a problem but the game had enough other issues. Bad map design, weapon balance, vehicle balance.... everything was a mess

[topaz field]

Oh boy here we go....

[tepid agate]

They also lied a lot to get Christmas sales, that too can't be reversed

Some people forcefully will not come back to show them a lesson not to do this again

[olive lake]

The lies really didnt help

[honest comet]

@olive lake wdym by that!"?

[sly leaf]

I am happy I wasn't DUMB enough to pre-order this trash game. Surprised it didn't crash the game industry like E.T. did.

[olive lake]

And the choices made were not great either.

[topaz field]

Well that's EA for you. I think if all of Dice devs went on strike back in Dec- Jan they could've turned the tide 😫😫

[olive lake]

You mean the gatekeepers?

[honest comet]

@acoustic oar for u everything is problem and u dont look at this objectively, weapons balance is good, same with vehicles like every other bf

[sly leaf]

HA!

[honest comet]

yeah max

[sly leaf]

Like when the only functioning weapon in the game was the Bizon?

[tepid agate]

And then they partiallt blamed halo having a polished llaunch which made theres look worse than it is

They also said we had brutal expectations (sorry to bring that up but they really kept digging their hole with had words)

[topaz field]

Weapon balance is okay imo. The bolte 59mm need to gooo

[olive lake]

Folks denying people from progressing on solo/coop despite it being a promised feature

[honest comet]

u can literally shoot dude in bolte with any gun trough window @topaz field

its free kills

[topaz field]

I thought the solo/coop mode was for practicing so it wouldn't make sense to unlock everything via bots

[olive lake]

Everyone assumes its farming but really just wanna play the game without the stress of a high ranked player sweating on me

[sly leaf]

You mean hackers?

[topaz field]

How old r u 😫

[olive lake]

One of many, yeah.

[honest comet]

@olive lake this has no sbmm so i dont get the point

[topaz field]

It does have sbmm 😫

[honest comet]

and i have never encountered hacker in 2042

bf does not have sbmm, u mixed it with cod

[olive lake]

Point is, I'd rather fight bots and get everything as promised

[topaz field]

@honest comet go and YouTube and type in "battlefield 2042, sort by date"

[topaz field]

That's boring 😫😫

[sly leaf]

This goof be in hard denial about hackers

[honest comet]

i mean i dont play with pc ppl so thats maybe reason

[olive lake]

For you, but a good amount of folk woukd disagree

[honest comet]

im just sayin my experience

[topaz field]

I think thats lazy and no fun previous battlefields it didn't have that

[sly leaf]

1942 had bots

[olive lake]

Enjoy the game however you want but dont deny others how they wanna play

[honest comet]

who does that lol @olive lake

[sly leaf]

BF2 also had bots

[honest comet]

nobody cares how u gonna play game as long as u play fair

[olive lake]

A LOT of people

I mean a fuck ton of people

[topaz field]

I was prob 12 years old then

[honest comet]

those are usually ppl who suck at game and then complain about everything when they die

[sly leaf]

As was probably I

[topaz field]

I don't remember this 🤣

[honest comet]

im decent player with 2 kdr i dont camp, and i dont care how others play

even if they do camp

[sly leaf]

When you're not as fortunate to have a PC, and no internet; the only thing you have are bots

[topaz field]

2002 I don't think I had a computer then

[sly leaf]

I played 1942 in like 2008 or so

[topaz field]

Ahhhh

Make sense 🤣

[honest comet]

anyway ppl should come back to the game, its pretty good rn

[sly leaf]

Yeah, I missed out on the golden age of BF, but I did play the heck out of BFBC2 and 4

[topaz field]

I think if they had released a remake of 2142 instead of 2042 people would whineeee cryyy blood this isn't battlefield!!!!

[topaz field]

Hell fking yeahhh BC1+BC2!!!

[sly leaf]

BFBC2 was peak BF

[topaz field]

On goddd super fun!!

[grizzled whale]

nah bro 2042 peak BF

[topaz field]

Okay good chatting I'm off to bed

[sly leaf]

have a good one. Nice to meet someone with a brain.😅

[topaz field]

Fingers cross Dice gets rid of armor distribution from Angel!

[topaz field]

Thanks 🤣🤣🤣

[grizzled whale]

true, and get rid of the turrets too

[honest comet]

hahahh literally,as i said double standards, cod can do anything and same ppl will praise it, while whatever bf does its bad

[grizzled whale]

CHANGE IS BAD!
Also
WHY GAME THE SAME ALL THE TIME

[honest comet]

change is not bad

wdym, games are ment to evolve and improve

[grizzled whale]

its the irony of the community

[honest comet]

only for bf

[grizzled whale]

they dont like it when games stay the same, but then complain when stuff changes

[honest comet]

but. as i said others do whatever the f, they bring dumb ass king kong operator and ppl are woooow

imagine that in bf, ppl would be spew venom for ages

am i right?

also i just tried pbx and this gun is so nice

[tepid agate]

If people complain because of change, then they must have changed a lot because 2042 has received the most backlash lol

[honest comet]

u clearly never saw bf4 and 5 backlash

[tepid agate]

I was at the bfV launch but not the BF4 launch. I heard about all the bugs though

[shy latch]

maybe the people complains when stuff changes are too many, I mean on 2042 there are tons of new stuffs:

• Hazard Zone
• Portal
• Specialist
• "unlocked" secondary gadgets and weapons
• 128 players maps

what else?

[honest comet]

add mp5 @shy latch

[tepid agate]

Seeing Battlefield games 3-6 years older then this attract more players says a lot about the backlash

[honest comet]

thats only thing i need lol

@tepid agate its bcs ppl figure too late that game was gold and they overreacted

[tepid agate]

I think they already enjoyed it. 2042 was just way underwhelming so they went back

If you stripped classes away, just to experiemtb if it's a problem in the battlefield community, strip them in bfV or bf1 and watch the player rage escalate and player count drop in those games

[honest comet]

anyway its just sad bcs bf games are hardest to develop out of current fps shooters

like cod struggles with maps size of my backyard,no desrtuction, no vehicles

so u can imagine how hard it is to make a game like this

[shy latch]

the hardest to develop but imo the best kind of shooters out there now; just WW3 could be a BF alternative but at the actual state is far far away

[shy latch]

ehy there is destruction on cod! you can brake the windows

[honest comet]

it will come, thats why it needs more time then normal fps games, keep in mind that bf always has best graphics out of fps shooters as well

games that are ambitious like bf games always end up with lot of buggs at start,but after some time they become op

[honest comet]

u can peek the door as well!

[tepid agate]

But there's not class system of gadget lock in this one... It makes things very difficult... They are trying to take this game in a new direction

[honest comet]

and thats okay, let them do their thing

u guys say about realistic stuff in bf, but then when something realistic happens its not good

its realistic that u can take equipment u want and need as soldier

[shy latch]

the only realistic stuff on BFs is the bullet drops and velocity

other than that is still an arcade fps

[tepid agate]

They can do there own thing. Less people will play their game then the older titles if they contie to force this trend

[honest comet]

nah ppl will accept it with time as with any other game

and tbh majority dont play bcs no content yet

not bcs specialists

[acoustic oar]

well different ppl different opionions deal with it. Alot of ppl think the game has problems and I doubt there will be alot of content for 2042. There will only be a few maps, weapons and specialists so the season pass owners can not sue them. The majority of the dev team moved to next bf title already.

[honest comet]

im statin my opinion as well and i dont deny other opinions, its called debating lol

[acoustic oar]

thats what we do yes

[honest comet]

so i dont have to deal with it, im allowed to give counterarguments

u see i think different bcs if u know bf then u wouldnt say that

they didnt leave any of their games hangin

[upbeat sand]

i am starved on things to do

[honest comet]

no matter how hard situation is they give tons of content and fix their games

[upbeat sand]

its just my "i have nothing else to do so ill do this i guess" game

[honest comet]

like bf5

that was doomed from start but they 3x more content then base game

and now its great game

[acoustic oar]

dont get me wrong I play bfv alot and its my favourite title right now but they did not bring the eastern front in a wwII shooter they skipped the content to bring 2042 and 2042 also has not alot of content

[upbeat sand]

but also it didnt take as long for content at all to release

[honest comet]

yea but they added whole pacific thing

which is huge

many new weapons and vehicles skins etc

[acoustic oar]

well eastern front is also huge and it should have been in the game

[honest comet]

like u cant expect to have everything in one game

[acoustic oar]

lul

[honest comet]

i mean for real lol

in most games u get one front

[upbeat sand]

i was waiting for that for a while and then boom gone

[acoustic oar]

in a wwII game I expect the russians tbh. You can call it brutal expectations if you want. Thats just how it is for me.

[honest comet]

thats completely fine

[upbeat sand]

||call of duty vanguard|| not including campaign

[honest comet]

but they opted for pacific

and tbh pacific was amasing, those battles on iwo jima

[dusky blade]

Get call of duty world at war, it’s incredible

[dim blade]

Only ones trying to coin those cringe terms are the cringemaster who made the cringe game

[honest comet]

ppl will never be happy, bf5 has tons of content and ppl still want more lol

[acoustic oar]

because it has less contents than previous games and if you played the old games you have certain expectations for a new game of the series.

[honest comet]

i olayed all of them

[dim blade]

Its not a legacy feature, it's a standard feature that was stripped from the game for some reason

[dusky blade]

BFV was worse in every way

Remember in BF1 when one dlc gave us 6 maps, dozens of guns, new behemoths, gamemodes and elites

[acoustic oar]

ye the content was way to slow in bfv aswell

[honest comet]

well bf 5 is still great with lot of content u cant deny that

[acoustic oar]

yes like I said its my favourite title right now

[honest comet]

anyway it will happen with bf2042 as well, im sure and i hope u will enjoy the game 😄

[acoustic oar]

I doubt that xD I am waiting for cod this year now

[upbeat sand]

live service games are slow as fuck

[acoustic oar]

dice service games yes

[honest comet]

i mean thats fine but ik the game will be awesome very soon

[acoustic oar]

if you look at warzone and fortnite they do a much better job with new content imo

[honest comet]

fortnite is not even same category of game

[acoustic oar]

I am talking about live service now with new content

[honest comet]

well they have cartoon graphics, imagine how hard it is to make new content lol

[shy latch]

surely when the next BF title will come out everyone will shout "2042 is much better".......it's always like that for every new bf

[arctic grove]

I just hope season 1 will bring back a lot of people

[acoustic oar]

well if it is worse than 2042 sure xD

[upbeat sand]

and also crunching their employees to the state of death

[acoustic oar]

you got any evidence of that? I am just curios. I did not read anything about that. Any links to an article perhaps?

[honest comet]

@acoustic oar whats ur ingame name on 2042?

[shy latch]

that's not the point, it happened with every bf before: everyone praised the previous bf chapter and complain that the actual one was the worst bf ever.
it happened with BF4, with BF1, with BFV and now with 2042.
at 10000% will happen also with any next title

[acoustic oar]

I dont play 2042 right now I bought the gold edition played it 40h and refunded it then after the early acess week

[upbeat sand]

activision is known for crunching their workers on cod to get that every year release and there has been i think interviews with epic employees who say they get unlimited free time but never get to use it, and they cant use it cause the work just falls onto other people and no one wants to be that guy who dosent do the work

i got a great video by noodle on it

[honest comet]

aha lol

u sure u played this game? except beta?

im just curious

[upbeat sand]

yeah crunch on 2042

[acoustic oar]

yes I played this game

[upbeat sand]

AAA games are fucking their workers until they die

[honest comet]

not u vito lol

[acoustic oar]

so any links?

[upbeat sand]

i got a video for a easier explanation

[acoustic oar]

yes can you link it

[upbeat sand]

https://youtu.be/aS3-iSEwNhs

[grizzled whale]

not an explanation, but proof of those companies doing that

[upbeat sand]

it has EA, activision, epic all the major crunch stuff

[grizzled whale]

and its based on opinions

[honest comet]

its not them doin it, its people who play the game who cry when anything dont go as planned

so they have to do it to not lose jobs bcs if cryin ppl font stop game will die

[upbeat sand]

the stuff with cyberpunk and the death threats is crazy

[honest comet]

exactly

[upbeat sand]

and when games get delayed everyone cries

[honest comet]

usually ppl force companys to release asap and then it ends as it ends

[upbeat sand]

a rushed game is never good

[acoustic oar]

well with 2042 it was EA who wanted to have the christmas sales and not the ppl tbh

[upbeat sand]

dont look at last of us 2 crunch

that dosen't count

[honest comet]

tbh im like this game and its obvious, u guys should give it a shot again its in really good shape atm

i mean just advice if u still have it

[upbeat sand]

i played to day and its great

until a bolte shows up with a 30mm

[honest comet]

just shoot the guy trough window

[acoustic oar]

I dont see why I should buy it right now tbh. No new guns, maps, vehicles and specialists yet and I did not have fun with it. So no reason to try.

[honest comet]

i even hit em with sniper and kill in bolte lol

@acoustic oar i mean ur situation is different, u can wait for content ofc, im sayin for people that still owns it

[upbeat sand]

welp least the bolte camper is a small thing rn

[honest comet]

and its better for u to wait for content and see if u like

[upbeat sand]

for the game i hate the fast rpm guns, they just dont feel that satisfying to hit shots

[honest comet]

i like submachine guns and snipers

[shy latch]

I'm playing it, what I would like is a better PC optimization, 'cause is quite heavy atm

[upbeat sand]

so i mainly go the ak24, sfar, pp29, sometimes m5 for a all rounder

[honest comet]

i do on ps5 and optimization is great

[upbeat sand]

and i go the starter sniper (i forgot name) as rao then rush in and close range attack sniper

[honest comet]

i use m5,sws 10 and pbx

[upbeat sand]

yeah i just rush to them with a sws and a mp28

[arctic grove]

On pc optimization is better than at launch but still ass

[honest comet]

its sws 10

[upbeat sand]

haha overly offencive sniper go brrrrr

[honest comet]

dude i play it like its cod hahaha

i do medium range snipeing

[upbeat sand]

yeah i only do med-close

[honest comet]

cant hit far away shots tbh

[upbeat sand]

and then i just charge at a camping sniper at full speed

[honest comet]

but med close i hit all

[upbeat sand]

just running up the hills chasing them wanting that prone casper to get of their ass

[honest comet]

so yeah i suck at long dist snipeing

noice haha

i like this female asian specialist that has scanner(forgot name since just started using it)

and casper

man if they add mp5 as new gun

imma play only dat thing

[upbeat sand]

piak

[honest comet]

yeah that one

need to get best skin, looks like ninja

and ninjas are cool

[arctic grove]

Lol

[next onyx]

Getting used to the Scar, Would rather the AK still lol.

[dapper berry]

If only the GL was removable

[next onyx]

That isn't even the issue to be honest.

The problem with high impact is that is lacks a proper damage model.

[honest comet]

hmm ak seems to be best from ars

[low timber]

Wtf, saw bullet tracers coming from a small closet so I threw my frag in there, it explodes without a hitmarker so I went in and shot the enemy McKay.

Meanwhile I die to enemy frag grenades from max health and armor from 6 meters away of the nade.

[honest comet]

lol

[shell reef]

We neeed conteeeeent

[foggy halo]

the godtier game

[analog fractal]

Gltiching out like the game innit

[velvet cypress]

Guys, I want to say something. Please dontt play the game lying on the floor, especially for beginners.

[foggy halo]

like the game? toxic negativity
is that you in the photo?

[upbeat sand]

Ey the game has no cheaters

[foggy halo]

[grizzled whale]

it does. but very few

[upbeat sand]

Who would even want to cheat in a 128p game anyway

[grizzled whale]

the same reason people want to cheat in any game?

[upbeat sand]

Dem stats

Or to see peoples reactions

[grizzled whale]

pretending to be good to fuel their ego

[upbeat sand]

What if dice made a system where cheaters could only play games with other cheaters so it's just people playing with other cheaters

Continuous chat rage

[grizzled whale]

anti cheat isnt something that should have priority

since theres barely any cheaters

[upbeat sand]

Yeah game is really smooth with its player base

Unlike where in cod you'll just get targeted by a man using a S teir meta load out wearing a bunny suit cause you killed em 1 time and raged in vac

Dammit auto correct let me say v c

[soft swallow]

Whats the key to active/disable the chat?

God damn it the pfp is spreading to discord

[foggy halo]

like cancer

[gray comet]

and if it did more damage than a pistol.

[silk surge]

PP-29 with long-barrel is insanely underrated.

[gray comet]

yes but ugly

[thorny folio]

Why is this game literally broken? I cleared Origin's cache, reinstalled my Steam version. Now it just will not launch stable on a 12600k 1070ti "ID_PC_CORRUPT_SAVE_BODY is back

[worn whale]

Because EA forgot how to make a good game

[thorny folio]

Well my mates on console are fine

I can't join them, £50 for this...

Ok I might make it to the main menu FINGERS CROSSED

[edgy oriole]

pp has never been underrated

[sly thunder]

Didn't they nerf it one time

[edgy oriole]

yes

[thorny folio]

Enters a match CRASH

[low timber]

Only thing I’m a bit annoyed with the PP-29 is that you can’t even get a laser on it, like it doesn’t need to be under the gun.

Like isn’t that a rail on its side?

[edgy oriole]

actually looking at the dates i wouldnt follow anything nvm

[thorny folio]

Thanks for the link, I've tried everything, cache, documents, verify and reinstall apart from a |GPU driver rollback

[silk surge]

long-barrel PP-29 gang

[low timber]

Was that the stock sight for the MP28?

Actually it might be the PP1 Holo

Not even running a 3x sight

[silk surge]

Full game entire match lol

[cursive cipher]

You know a game is dead when half the server are bots! 😂🤣

[thorny folio]

CPU runs 60c GPU 70C unreal, one game out of my collection, wants me to buy new hardware clearly.

Talk about shady optimization.

[edgy oriole]

[upbeat sand]

I've already said this but

Put [ai] next to your name on your account

i think i’m doing well in a game then remember it’s cos it’s a bot match because i can never find a match

and i earn like 2k xp

lmao oh lord

[silk surge]

Holy, I'm getting some insane killstreaks today.

I think I'm going to main PP-29 from now on.

[edgy oriole]

what

where did this happen

when and how

A1 is trash now wtf. *always has been but no cover now

[silk surge]

A1 and A2 are the best objectives to defend and attack in conquest 😄

[edgy oriole]

oh are maps different in conquest?

i had no clue

[silk surge]

Structually? Not sure, I rarely play BT.

[edgy oriole]

i only play BT

[silk surge]

We are not the same.

[fossil niche]

Hey guys! Anyone else still experiences rubber-banding occasionally on last-gen consoles?

[grizzled whale]

takes me 10 seconds to find a full 64v64 lobby

[edgy oriole]

I dont know anything about last gen, but i dont think i get rubberbanding for the most part. only times i do is when the server connection is ass and it kicks me out

[fossil niche]

Are you on console?

[edgy oriole]

pc

[tacit sphinx]

i do but i would be hesitant to put it on the game because my wifi sucks lol

me when i look at my ping and it’s 4,721

[fossil niche]

4721?

[tacit sphinx]

ms

[fossil niche]

I don’t get rubber-banding on games like Warzone and Vanguard.

[tacit sphinx]

i just occasionally get massive ping spikes because dodgy internet lol

[fossil niche]

Bruh

[fossil niche]

So I can say my connection is pretty reliable.

Rubber-banding occurrence increases as there’s storm going on. I don’t know if it’s the 8 years old hardware issue or what

[tacit sphinx]

it could be

[hardy leaf]

when is the new content?

[fossil niche]

BF1 and BFV both looks more beautiful as compared to 2042 and still they runs fine on my old machine 🤣

[edgy oriole]

prolly in the summer since thats what theyve been saying for months. who knows tho.

[fossil niche]

And what about the May update?

[edgy oriole]

idk hopefully its server maintenance

[agile inlet]

@fossil niche

[silk surge]

I keep forgetting that 2042 exists on pre-gen.

How is the population like over there?

Man, I'm hoping that the season 1 trailer is good.

[edgy oriole]

im gonna watch szn 1 trailer just like how i watched 2042 trailer

not at all

[silk surge]

2042 trailer was one of the best trailers I've ever seen.

There's a reason why this game had so much hype behind it.

[arctic grove]

Fr

[edgy oriole]

i havent watched a trailer since lost planet. made me realize trailers dont mean anything.

[arctic grove]

The trailer was amazing

[edgy oriole]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e6Ahoe6ovQ4 imagine watching this as a kid and booting the game up for the first time

whoever got hyped bc of a trailer is a fool, but fools learn.

[hearty flame]

i think the closest gameplay in trailers Ive seen is fromsoft games. most of it is gameplay bits but with cinematic angles using dev tools im assuming
dont think ive really seen them do a cinematic trailer thats inengine stuff, mostly gameplay bits

[mental cave]

nah, the battlefield 1 reveal trailer was hype af

[silk surge]

2042's gameplay trailer was fairly accurate.

[acoustic oar]

the trailer which had lags and stutters? true

[frigid cairn]

the trailers were very upfront with 2042 being more of a "game" than a wannabe milsim but people got very mad when it wasn't a wannabe milsim lol

[hidden sand]

Ah, the 2042 gameplay trailers
You said one small hint of a criticism about them you'd get 5+ people telling you why you can't and you're wrong

[frigid cairn]

they showed off the wingsuit and rendezook

people only got mad when they found out they needed to play as a nonbinary character to use the wingsuit lmao

[edgy oriole]

rendezook?

[fossil niche]

😅

[hidden sand]

The Pre-release community was very weird during that time, it's bizarre how everyone forgot what DICE did during BFVs lifespan

[hearty flame]

of course a lot of people are gonna forget when presented with the flashiest newest thing

[fossil niche]

EU and US lobbies are pretty populated all the time. It’s the Asian and middle eastern lobbies that are hard to find rn.

[fossil niche]

Well I’m ready to forget this. 😂

[silk surge]

The core BF base has been dwindling over the years, so any major hype will also come externally.

[cyan trout]

No AIs lol

[silk surge]

eg. people who knows nothing about BFV's update cycle.

[fossil niche]

Oops

[hidden sand]

Not really accurate. People were bothered by the clearly unfinished look of the game, lack of solid art direction, janky gameplay, and specialist

[cyan trout]

The way they treated BFV is why I didn't pre-order 2042 or buy at release.

[frigid cairn]

they were bothered by aesthetics and the lack of the CQB meatgrinders and its obvious when you read their complaints

[calm peak]

is teh game worth buying?

[dapper berry]

not yet

[calm peak]

yikes, guess i will be continute playing bf1

[hidden sand]

Nah, you're generalizing which is kinda silly.
Having criticisms about the art direction is fine though? I'm not sure what point your making by saying that. It's a crucial part of the experience that they have to get right.

[frigid cairn]

when i say aesthetic I meant the quips and inclusion of characters who aren't generic-looking white guys. the in-game graphics are very very nice and the maps are beautiful

[grizzled whale]

"right" is subjective though

[hidden sand]

Quips are part of the art direction, but I have seen maybe 4 or 5 people in my time browsing the 2042 forums and reddit (who were downvoted and called out) for complaining about skin color. Not really the blanket of people you make it out to be.

[frigid cairn]

falck and sundance are constantly ridiculed lol

also there was a whole thing where the subreddit made a fuss about paik not being hot enough

[dapper berry]

i've seen waaay too many comments about the game being too "woke" and about paik's appearance

[frigid cairn]

and the quips are funny and only play once a round so who really cares lol

[dapper berry]

quips have to change tho

[frigid cairn]

its once a round tho

the in-game voicelines are actually really good so im fine with 10 seconds of silliness every 30 minutes

[dapper berry]

some in-game voicelines are tone-deaf too (except irish and casper) , the whole VA could be better

[edgy oriole]

I forget specialist even talk half the time

[sly thunder]

Angel does it again

[frigid cairn]

really? there's nothing in-game i would change. mackay reminds me of bf3 and the rest don't have any obnoxious lines

[hidden sand]

The quips completely take you out of the experience if you're attempting to be immersed. Doesn't really matter if they're once per round, there's a constant reminder of them which messes with the tone. Then you take into account the lack of art direction on the maps, the characters looking pretty out of place, etc. It's difficult to be immersed and really experience the world they've made like past games. (Except BFV, it has similar issues)

[frigid cairn]

yeah that's why my original comment was how 2042 was upfront about being a "game" instead of a "milsim"

[dapper berry]

c'mon, mackay screams "woohoo !" when you grapple if that isn't obnoxious i don't know what is

[frigid cairn]

i guess my brain wants to make the same sound when i grapple so im good with it lol

same reason i like it when they scream once i take a jump

[hidden sand]

Strong, immersive and authentic art direction is one of the key pillars of past BF games and is ahuge part of what made them so good. You have this gritty atmosphere and style combined with arcady and sandbox gameplay.

[frigid cairn]

gritty is really overselling the previous ones imo

[hidden sand]

Really unfortunate how much 2042 missed the mark with it.

[grizzled whale]

bro its a grappling hook, you cant use one of those without woohooing

[dapper berry]

that's already more tolerable, but the dude's speciality is his grapple, why would he giggle while using it ?

[hidden sand]

BF1 , BF4 and BF3 are absolutely gritty lol

[frigid cairn]

bro a grapple hook sounds fun af

bf3 was infamous for the guy with the funny cursing

[dapper berry]

it is, and it's fun to use it, but it's less fun when the game itself tells you "look, what you're doing is fun !"

[hidden sand]

BF3 used comedic voicelines that felt very authentic

[frigid cairn]

it felt in-line with what we want war to be like

i'm pretty sure it's as silly as everything in 2042 tho

[hidden sand]

Voice acting style and tone is something you're leaving out, which is objectively different between the two

[frigid cairn]

mackay's VA was literally the guy from bf3 lol

[dapper berry]

the problem isn't the actor, it's the direction

[hidden sand]

Those are extremely crucial in the delievery of lines and make or break whether or not they're believable or not

[frigid cairn]

again, i think the mistake was thinking anything from bf3 or 4 was "realistic"

[hidden sand]

I'm not saying actors are at fault, it's the direction they are told to take that is

[frigid cairn]

bf has always been arcadey

[hidden sand]

Then you're arguing a whole other argument my guy because I'm talking about Art direction

[frigid cairn]

i am too, i'm simply pointing out that the direction has always been somewhat fantastical

they just made it way more obvious in 2042

[dapper berry]

the gameplay direction yes, the artistic/tone direction no

[frigid cairn]

yeah the horses in bf1 were sooooo realistic lol

[hidden sand]

It's stylized and attempts to be authentic and realistic at every chance it can get. It's never deliberately tried to be silly or lighthearted in the mainline games, even Bad Company 2 multiplayer remained authentic and gritty toned.

[dapper berry]

that's gameplay

[hidden sand]

Why do you keep bringing up gameplay in a convo about art direction lol

[frigid cairn]

because the horses were doing ridiculous things all match

[frigid cairn]

just because they looked right doesn't mean they were any less immersion-breaking

same with the behemoths, they looked "accurate' but their presence on the battlefield was ridiculous

[dreamy cosmos]

Did they improve performance yet? Last time i checked this game run like a powerpoint slideshow at 4k on my 2080 ti

[dapper berry]

same with everyone running with automatic weapons

[hidden sand]

There's a thing called suspension of disbelief

[frigid cairn]

everyone was just okay with it because it looked "cool". those same people decided 2042 doesn't look "cool" so its somehow less immersive

[dapper berry]

they didn't, but 4K on a 2080 ti is a stretch anyway

[dapper berry]

not everyone was okay with it, i know i wasn't

but the game was consistent across gameplay, art, and tone direction

[hidden sand]

It's more nuanced than that but you're deliberately ignoring that to try and prove your point.

2042 is deliberately trying to be silly, wacky and lighthearted, when past games have never attempted so because of it being out of place with the style bf has worked on for years now.

Gameplay doesn't = art direction. Someone tbagging me doesn't suddenly mean the art direction doesn't exist.

[dreamy cosmos]

Only game that seems to struggle is this game. Rdr2 and satisfactory run smooth with simular graphics. When did they optimize?

[dapper berry]

2042 is CPU bound, the GPU might run it then but that's not what's causing the powerpoint experience

[hidden sand]

It's crazy to me that people try to argue that BF has never tried to have serious, gritty direction, authentic art direction which is just false.

[edgy oriole]

9700k=40-70fps
12700k=80-110fps
1440p

[dapper berry]

RAM helps with 0.1% fps too

[frigid cairn]

No I think it’s silly that this community demands a very specific aesthetic that’s based in arguments for “realism” when the game has never tried to be close to realistic

[dapper berry]

i'm having way less dips than before since i upgraded to 32gb

[edgy oriole]

The "community" just wants generic back. has nothing to do with "realism"

[frigid cairn]

We’ve collectively tricked ourselves into thinking man with helmet is the only look a soldier can have

[dapper berry]

what was your first battlefield ?

[frigid cairn]

BC1

We fought on a golf course and it was great

[edgy oriole]

[dapper berry]

see, that's why

BC1 was a complete shift in tone, but it still kept it's authentic art direction

[crisp junco]

I dont think that the only way a soldier can be is with a helmet
But at the same time i dont want soldiers running around with jeans an a leather jacket

[hidden sand]

People thinking that military clothes are going to save the art direction are wack. There is far more that goes into making a game believable and immersive than just realistic playermodels.

[dapper berry]

all battlefields before BC1, the ones with the "42" in their names had a serious tone

[edgy oriole]

bring back realism

[frigid cairn]

Honestly

[edgy oriole]

#notmybattlefield

[dapper berry]

this is why people are pissed off, when they announced 20_42_ people were expecting it to be more in line with the older ones

[frigid cairn]

Also where does 2142 fall in this lmao

[edgy oriole]

i need art this good

[hearty flame]

honestly give me the slightly exaggerated and bombastic bad company style
realism is temporary, artstyle is forever

[arctic grove]

Bad company destruction

[hidden sand]

The realism crowd left with Project Reality (and now Squad), now its people who have been tricked into believing BF is realistic because of the believable art direction

[crisp junco]

The fact that they neutered destruction is one of the worst things

[arctic grove]

Agreed

[acoustic oar]

2042 performance is already bad... with full destruction it would probably melt most of the pcs

[edgy oriole]

id be fine with them getting rid of the giant buildings and adding more small buildings for us to CRUSH

[hidden sand]

Destruction is not as hardware intensive as you would believe

[frigid cairn]

The destruction is good where it exists, they just didn’t include more than one or two sections per map where it mattered

[grizzled whale]

tf even happened here

[arctic grove]

I rather have bad company copy paste prefab buildings over buildings you see today in a bf game

[hearty flame]

i mean if that was true then the cod crowd would be a lot more pissed over the aot and king kong crossovers

[dapper berry]

got c4'd

[edgy oriole]

youre not a mountain camper are you

[grizzled whale]

nobody was in c5 range

[grizzled whale]

nah, i was flanking

[dapper berry]

the cod crowd only care about their Ws nowadays

[edgy oriole]

3 people 1 foot away from you

also lock on rocket

[dapper berry]

they're AI but idk if they can c5

[hearty flame]

vanguard was a big L but mw2 could be a very big W

[arctic grove]

Gives me Mars nasa "that's a rat on mars" rock vibes

[dapper berry]

mw2 is a guaranteed win, infinity ward has their mojo back

let's just hope it stays true to mw2019

[edgy oriole]

mw22 should be a guaranteed win. it would be omega dumb if they fumbled the bag that hard

[hearty flame]

Its weird to get excited about cod now that its going on a 4 year dev cycle
but its a nice weird

[edgy oriole]

4 year dev cycle? so every studio making cod gonna have 4+ years?

[dapper berry]

i think it's rumored to switch to a 2-year lifecycle

[hearty flame]

ya its 2 years between every cod release now

[dapper berry]

with only treyarch/infinity ward as developers

[hearty flame]

oh theyre dropping sledgehammer? nice

[edgy oriole]

so technically every studio got 4 years since they gotta wait their turn. i got it. battlefield needs more studios making their game

[dapper berry]

i might be wrong, don't quote me on this

[dapper berry]

if they fix 2042's core issues (which they recently released a statement confirming their intention to do just that), it could be a very solid platform on which to build future games

the potential this game has is huge

[hearty flame]

dont underestimate a disgruntled fanbases ability to ruin all your future plans though lol
"what its built on 2042!? nah not buyin it"

[dapper berry]

the internet forgets very fast

[edgy oriole]

i just hope the 128 will be more stable in next bf game.

[dapper berry]

i hope they go back to 64, or just push it to 80 or 100

[edgy oriole]

after getting this succulent taste of big war i wont enjoy anything smaller fully again.

[frigid cairn]

Ew why would you want fewer players

[cyan trout]

Haggard seeing everyone say battlefield is gritty

[edgy oriole]

id be ok with 100 or so.

[dapper berry]

what's the point of 128 players if you just stretch the map to reduce chaos

[crisp junco]

I think 80 is a good balance

[edgy oriole]

i only play BT so i dont have that problem

[dapper berry]

and the devs said themselves that 64 BT is the way to go

[edgy oriole]

ill still play since its battlefield, but i really wont enjoy it like i do now.

[dapper berry]

yeah i get it, even i sometimes hop on 128 players just for the sheer chaos

but it's not worth the performance loss and the maps IMO

[edgy oriole]

i wwant 128 frontline

[hearty flame]

I think larger player sizes need bigger maps or sectioned maps like in MAG
and that had up to 256 players

[dapper berry]

boy i wish i played MAG when it came out

[frigid cairn]

I think 128p plays really well on conquest

[hearty flame]

it was some great fun. some imbalanced fun at times but when it worked it really worked

[edgy oriole]

too much running/guessing for me. *could be different with vehicle gameplay tho.

[dapper berry]

it plays best on conquest that's for sure, but i still have more fun on 64p bf3 maps

[frigid cairn]

don't run then lol, you should be using parachutes or vehicles

[edgy oriole]

[dapper berry]

it really was ahead of its time

[crisp junco]

They arent always available

[dapper berry]

bro it's ok just open parachute

[frigid cairn]

the new transport meta means they should be and all the maps have tall points to jump from

[edgy oriole]

lemme jump off this rock and parachute

[frigid cairn]

if you don't have the point you should try to cap it 🙂

[crisp junco]

Yeas but the transports are taken up by people trying to use them like mobile turrets

[hearty flame]

it couldve been so much better but them not balancing out sver really killed it. sver was too strong so it got too many players leading to queue problems. that and only allowing 1 character an account

[edgy oriole]

lemme run across the map to get on highest point to jump to other side of map that fighting already transferred away from

ig i just need to get good. tbh

[frigid cairn]

dude im in combat for 90% of the game its not too hard

[edgy oriole]

or just play BT for point fighting.

[crisp junco]

Still
It cant be that hard to put in a truck

But then again most of the players dont know the concept of having more than 2 people in a single vehicle

[frigid cairn]

i want a deuce

they were the most fun thing to mess with in warzone

[dapper berry]

yeah as with most games of that era, shitty dev decisions killed them

[edgy oriole]

my favourite part of the game is people wait to grab a vehicle spawn as fast as possible to camp 600m away from any given point just to play the whole game missing shots from said 600m away

[crisp junco]

I want a soviet milk truck

[hearty flame]

and then they went under and closed. really sad that

[dapper berry]

as in true battlefield fashion

[hearty flame]

its always fun to find ways to sneak up on them and kill them though

[edgy oriole]

thats why i turned into a c5 advocate. c5 vehicle campers

[river zinc]

Lol

[crisp junco]

I like how they added heat and mpat as 2 diffent shells even tho the mpat is also known as heat-mp because its practically heat just with extra fragmentation

[wide shore]

JustDiceThings

[thorny folio]

Another thing because I haven't finished bitching

[thorny folio]

Quake Live, Paladins, Vampire the Masquerade - Blood Hunt, all when sharing a steam libary and are exclusively multiplayer -DO NOT BOOT OTHER LIBARY USERS from another multiplayer game in your Library like Midnight Ghost Hunt - When is use...

But BF2042... Boots

Why?

Your game is BS, fix the fucking game, you're paid enough.

[hollow verge]

Test

[thorny folio]

How do you coordinate 64 players a team, split into fours and expect even matches? when they can't communicate as squads to one another. Most casuals can't read the game and get anything out of it. They simply experience it.

[chilly jacinth]

Its a decision made by either EA or Dice

[thorny folio]

Fuck EA and Dice

[chilly jacinth]

All call of duty games on steam also do this

[thorny folio]

They have a separate launcher at least?

For Warzone at least

[chilly jacinth]

on steam

[thorny folio]

Releasing broken games, well CP2077 did it so...

[edgy oriole]

2077 is different bc it was in dev for 9+ years before release.

[thorny folio]

Doesn't matter...

[edgy oriole]

it do

[thorny folio]

What is another year? - Oh investors, shares etc

Pandemic gaming... grinding, BP's Multiplayer DLC More Money

Yea...

Rant done Chow!

[copper fulcrum]

Game's perfect

[grizzled whale]

2042's perfect

[copper fulcrum]

It definitely is

[edgy oriole]

you missed the conversation on how art and graphics are trash compared to pre BC games.

[copper fulcrum]

lol

BF2 looks like an old oil painting when playing it today.

[edgy oriole]

i had to grab a few screenshots of the superior graphics that were 2000s #notmybattlefield

[copper fulcrum]

It's even got that classic yellow/brown/piss filter

[edgy oriole]

[copper fulcrum]

Not to shit on BF2, I really enjoy that game but the graphics don't really stand the test of time.

[edgy oriole]

but it turned out it wasnt graphics/art they were talking about. it was just generic skins they miss

[copper fulcrum]

BF2 really shows that DICE can put in tools for actual team communication and strategy

But no one fucking uses it and will use it unless it's competitive so what's the point on putting something in if 10% of players are actually going to use it?

Making the Commander an actual player on the field was a good and bad strategy, it made the commander worth playing however a lot of players just used it for themselves and then they got demoted back to an actual player. WHICH CAN BE DONE

[edgy oriole]

i wouldnt use a voip system like that. (if you are talking about HHL voip) bc squad lead voip is absolute trash. there are people that like it but if you dont get luck of rando team making. and have to "step up" to squad lead or commander is sucks sucks. lol.

[copper fulcrum]

When it comes to squad systems, if we had BF1 where it had 5 players, it showed how many squad objectives were on each objective combined with BFV where the squads can call in stuff to help, that'd be nice.

[edgy oriole]

or i should say id be okay with it if i could just hop into a squad without having to be squad lead so i wouldnt have to hear everyone screaming.

[copper fulcrum]

lol yeah, I'd say 80% if not more Battlefield players will actually use team strategy to play. Most players just want shooty game with vehicles and big booms

[edgy oriole]

thats me. im just tryna blow shit up in the frostbite engine

[copper fulcrum]

I mean, I communicate over on a dedicated Discord server since we now have an actual cross-platform platoon. (Not recruiting btw, just saying how I play)

If we ever get too many people where the comms are scrammed we separate squads into respective actual squads like a ground team, a vehicle team and an air team. If possible

The leaders of each squad can move and communicate. Surprisingly it works well with 2042. I'm typically air team with Sundance in the Condor lol

[dapper berry]

c'mon now the discussion was about artstyle and tone , 2042 graphics look good

[tame ermine]

I can’t uninstall bf2042

It says it can’t find the file for the game I am uninstalling

[foggy halo]

2042 graphics reminds me of cod

[silk surge]

Oh god, look at how long I've played 2042 this session

You'll be depressed.

[wide shore]

Don’t see it

[silk surge]

Oh shit... well its 9 hours

[wide shore]

Not bad

[silk surge]

I've gotten consistent amazing games, so I haven't been able to close the game.

[wide shore]

Man, I wish that could happen to me

I always get teamed with those bots YouTubers play against.

[silk surge]

I usually suck at Renewal, but I just came from a game where I got 62-11.

[wide shore]

Damn, conquest?

[silk surge]

yeah

[wide shore]

Wow. Good shit

[silk surge]

128p specifically

[wide shore]

Of course

[umbral vigil]

I want them to reimplement the commander

From 4 and Hardline

[silk surge]

Holy shit, this dude has 3k hours on BF2 😄 https://www.bf2hub.com/stats/46212788

That's almost as much as I have in every Battlefield in total, and BF has been my main FPS since BC2.

[low timber]

I forgot that Hardline had the hacker mode

[willow sky]

everywhere i go
everyone is using mp9 or k30

[wide violet]

I miss bf2

[low timber]

I’m currently using the MP9 because it’s the last SMG that isn’t T1 yet, but I am also using the M5A3 and 12M currently as well, all depends of the map tbh.

And when I get M5A3 to T1 then it’s going to be Sfar.

[dapper river]

what an amazing and profound sentiment, so brave and controversial!

[silk surge]

SFAR was my final AR T1. That one can be annoying. Noobtubing was fun as hell though.

[low timber]

Saving it because of the 40mm AP, because fuck Boltes.

[willow sky]

my actual respects to you guys working on T1 for all of your weapons, i can't even manage to use anything else other than m5a3 or pbx, im stuck with those!

[copper fulcrum]

I've been seeing the M5A3 more often

[willow sky]

yeah same, its just really versatile

[low timber]

Still getting roadkills by them all the time as they sometimes don’t make any sound.
They are still fast and wide which makes it harder to try to jump out of the way and even if you do they just turn slightly to still get the roadkill.
Or dump those cluster mines that have massive radius and no warning or the 30mm gun.
And been seeing them driving into our uncap a lot more now as well, the 10 seconds is too generous.

[copper fulcrum]

Is it bad that I thought your picture was Sonic for a second?

[low timber]

Also it’s sometimes hard to shoot the gunner because there is some handle bar in front of the window that block your bullets.

[willow sky]

Someone thought it was travis touchdown, but dont worry about it

[copper fulcrum]

lmao

It's funny that the SFAR has the best grenade launcher for any primary. Best reload speed, best accuracy although the grenades are all the same iirc

[thorny orchid]

just deleted 2042 and downloaded vanguard

good times

[willow sky]

I wanted to always use SFAR, is it even good?

[thorny orchid]

ye

[copper fulcrum]

It's nice

Okay

Thanks for reminding me, I leveled up twice since I last changed my name

[thorny orchid]

how tf are u S454???

[edgy oriole]

bruh i wanna order pizza but at the same time i dont

[copper fulcrum]

Because this game is amazing, and by playing it lmao

[copper fulcrum]

You come across as the type of guy to have 4 toppings on their pizza to me

[edgy oriole]

i put a few things on my pie no lie

[copper fulcrum]

Nothing

Myself

I am in my own house

[thorny orchid]

do you have any tricks I could use to get that high. Im only lvl 20

[merry breach]

I wouldnt say this game is amazing but i am having fun

[copper fulcrum]

Just by playing the game.

Same thing goes for every single Battlefield games, play the game and you get XP. Playing the objective gives you more.

Every CoD has been dogshit after MW3

[thorny orchid]

Oh this is my first battlefield so I thought there was some trick

[copper fulcrum]

I've been here since 1942 and I can say 2042 does a good job

[wraith sequoia]

mmm

[thorny orchid]

On a scale of 1/100 what do you rate 2042?

[merry breach]

6... maybe

[copper fulcrum]

100

[thorny orchid]

damn a 10/100

I changed my rating btw. I think its 70/100 rn

[copper fulcrum]

I can edit messages too. Woweee

[thorny orchid]

forgot to add the zero

[edgy oriole]

7/10 is a fair score

[willow sky]

7/10, a passing grade
it might raise if season 1 is good

[copper fulcrum]

50/100 means average

[edgy oriole]

furthest id go is 8/10

[sly thunder]

8/10

[copper fulcrum]

Unless we're going off the American Grading System

But yeah this has been the only real Multiplayer game I've been putting time into since it's release

[thorny orchid]

Its a 100/100 tbh

just needs more content

[quiet adder]

Season 1 starting soon? I left the game. Got too boring

[edgy oriole]

Made up my mind ordered pizza

[grave prism]

god it is fking impossible to choose the correct spawnpoint with a controller now

[blazing rivet]

I as an intellectual reserve the right to enjoy battlefield 2042, given the launch imposed on me by EA i was indirectly stripped from this right.

As per human rights i demand season 1 to launch plus a compensation fee of at least a million dollars.

[delicate laurel]

Use the dpad instead

[round garden]

Lets hope dice ditches battlefield and works on battlefront instead

In bf2042 you play the entire map and in battlefornt 2 you play the game where the enemies are and not having to run millions of Kilometers over a barren wasteland 💀

[copper fulcrum]

You do know that EA turned down any upcoming Battlefront game right?

[hidden sand]

"The license is too much but don't mind these other 3 star wars games we have in production"

[dapper river]

Battlefront II core gameplay sux, sorry to burst your bubble

[blazing rivet]

everything sucks according to someone

is that tos

that joke made me nervous so i deleted it

[grave prism]

i was, i had spawn beacon in between spawn and objective and could not click it cause it was slightly off center to both of them lmao, dogshit since they changed it cause people were complaining about it

[arctic grove]

Battlefront is scraped, it’s not coming

Lmao rip battlefront

[analog stirrup]

First battlefront game was better

[edgy oriole]

looking back at it i wish i played battlefronts more. i was salty that they werent like the old ones, but they were still cool.

[white geyser]

Don’t expect for battlefront 3 deal with it, they’ll focus on battlefield

[still marsh]

it’s trash

[hidden sand]

Be DICE
Get the series that was copying them handed to them, knowing they were loved for that reason
Drops every single idea from that game and makes a poor mans bad company 2 with a star wars skin

[edgy oriole]

well in my mind at the time i thought it was a remake not a reimagine so i shouldve looked at it different. fun game but didnt play it as much as i shouldve. i prolly was playing cod at the time.

[hidden sand]

To this day I have no clue what made them go
"Mmm nah conquest wont be added"
They shouldn't have called them battlefront because they're nothing like the originals

[edgy oriole]

shiiii fuck conquest lmao. id sleep better with it gone dont matter to me.

[eternal storm]

What game modes are on portal right now

[wide shore]

Uhhh. Infantry Conquest, Gun Roulette and something else

[eternal storm]

Meh

[cedar turtle]

They still haven't added talking animals

[eternal storm]

That would be considered content, something Dice are against adding

[thorn helm]

8:10 for me

but 4 for you

[cedar turtle]

8:11 here

[thorn helm]

whats a Dying Seraph?

[cedar turtle]

A font

[thorn helm]

a font can dye ?

[hexed mango]

die

[cedar turtle]

Of course.

[thorny orchid]

[edgy oriole]

ive ran into a couple cheaters. reported and got them banned
