battlefield-2042

[flat tusk]

Why would they need reworked. Can’t the just like… copy and paste

[silk surge]

Well... Commercially sucessful might be the wrong phrase, given that 2042 sold 4,5 million copies during its pre-release week.

I guess critically acclaimed is better.

[sturdy prism]

The game wont be the game we waited for until they get rid of the specialists

[silk surge]

I don't really care about specialists one way or the other. I like the free loadouts, but not the quips or personalities of the characters.

Not really a dealbreaker for me.

[severe carbon]

I wish you could just make your own character in a character creator, that'd be sweet

I know there's complications and there's benefits to classes like knowing if someone could have a certain gadget or specialist item but still

[pulsar junco]

ig they thought hero shooters were the way to go

(absolutely not)

[trim forge]

what do you guys think about only one attack air veh?

[severe carbon]

they didnt seem to know where to go lol

[silk surge]

Yeah, threat perception is a bit harder with specialists, especially in ground vehicles. Even medics can run around with Carl Gustavs and C5.

[silk surge]

There's going to be 2 new stealth helis. Which is also too little.

[severe carbon]

Definitely sucks for vehicle users. Dice really just needs to balance vehicle weapons, remove the low skill and annoying explosive launching guns from just about every vehicle other than tanks. Given Dice won't do that though, I say they arent going far enough until almost every vehicle is removed 🙂

vehicles used to separate BF from COD, made it fun, now they put explosives on all of them and theyre just a source of frustration

[pulsar junco]

boom booms are fun

[severe carbon]

some boom booms can be fun but theyre frankly out of control in this game, like the jeep things should not have the cannons

[trim forge]

remember good times where attack chopper, attack jet, fighter jet, littlebird, and haitun could fly independently

[grizzled whale]

Bro you cant do anything in a vehicle without being locked on, hacked, emped, shot at by m5's, chased by a flying nade/c5 drone/flying squirrel or being nuked from orbit by a hind with 50mm cannon

[severe carbon]

good

[trim forge]

veh in 2042 is one of the best in its kind, its versatile and unique, but, now the concept of rock, paper, scissors won't just work

imagine 2 fighter jets just fighting in the air not making impact on the battlefield at all

[severe carbon]

jets are good for countering other vehicles, that has an impact

[trim forge]

yes, but if they;re both AA?

just fightin each other in the air, while infantry just pew pew on the ground

[severe carbon]

but they can take out helis and tanks and such which kill infy

[trim forge]

without the limit there could be a plenty of air targets for jets, not a single one, so now every jet will have A-G rockets, and it's good half won't be used at all, as here is nothing to kill in the air

it's either jet, or litlb, or attack heli

sounds really dumb to me 😵‍💫

[severe carbon]

oh yeah it seems like a terrible change all around, Im only happy to see it because I only play infy so the fewer vehicles bothering me the better lol

[hybrid steppe]

Great, more fucking op shit flying around as if we needed more.

[white geyser]

You can use the AA both air and land, let me show my AA tank in BF4

[trim forge]

these are weak AF, air veh is killed in 2042, as anyone can kill them

[trim forge]

I mean aa jets

[white geyser]

This is my AA tank in BF4

[trim forge]

why do you show it? we are not speaking ground veh

[forest snow]

I’m surprisingly more annoyed about the anime pack

[cerulean token]

https://tenor.com/view/battlefield-battlefield2042-monkey-gif-23352493

[stone cradle]

With 2042 being as least serious as ever, I'm not mad at them adding anime skins

[crude radish]

*(summon thy Hess, the mod!)

[cerulean token]

me waiting for the update in 1H ...

[forest snow]

But at the same time are they not making the maps more gritty and the specialists more battle worn ? Which is it? Real war feel or crappy trashy cartoons and shit

[stone cradle]

I wouldnt really call the maps more gritty, all they did is copy and paste sandbags and crates everywhere. But I guess it's an improvement

[trim forge]

no one's adding anime skins, they require time and experience, these are not about DICE

[stone cradle]

I thought COD had anime skins for guns

[forest snow]

If those anime skins are added battlefield is well and truly dead.

[trim forge]

I mean for bf

[crude radish]

@lucid goblet

[silk surge]

Eh. I welcome wacky skins, especially in a modern setting where your character is a mercenary hired by a superpower.

[hybrid steppe]

If the rumor of there being only 2 new guns is true, I'm not even mad at this point, I'm fascinated how you are able to fuck up everything that comes to game's content so bad. I lost my hope for this game a long time ago and now I'm just watching the shit show from the side lines.

[lucid goblet]

[radiant thunder]

i can't believe they're removing one of the modes

[stone cradle]

I'm fine with them making goofy skins for 2042, if the next BF is actually like the previous titles, then yeah I would expect then to make themed skins that actually fit the whole timeline and stuff.

[forest snow]

Just means DICE have no soul or love for the franchise any more and it’s a slap in the face for long time standing players

[hybrid steppe]

Reminder that BF3 Close Quarters DLC had 10 new guns in it.

[vale gale]

Do we have a cooldown for the update?

[stone cradle]

The next game better be BC3 or something or else 2042 might be the nail in the coffin for BF.

[severe carbon]

honestly I dont even care about wacky skins in this game anymore, this isnt a serious game with the specialist lines and stuff. I've just accepted this is a goofy game, maybe the next one will be serious again

[stone cradle]

[forest snow]

At this point please just abandon 2042 and move on to make the next game perfect

[silk surge]

As much flaws as BFV live-service had... They still released seasons with SEVERAL maps and a bunch of new guns. Defying the Odds literally had 5 maps (although some of them came late into the season like Al Sundan and Underground)

[pine roost]

dogfighting has somehow become a legacy feature too in this game

[manic stone]

rip

We have reduced the total number of Air Attack vehicles that can be active at any time to 1 per team

[trim forge]

and adequate veh combat as well

[ocean isle]

What season 1 gonna be in bf2042

[stone cradle]

They have an obligation to atleast release a year's worth of content, to DICE that seems like 3 new maps then

[ocean isle]

Is it like battle pass

[stone cradle]

Yeah it's basically that

[forest snow]

Mean at this point I don’t care I paid 120 for the ultimate edition knowing what’s coming

[ocean isle]

like other game halo infinite , fortnite , pubg , apex legend

[silk surge]

Hell, the first content drop for BFV happened a month after launch (Panzerstorm in December).

[stone cradle]

We really were spoilt with BFV, and that's not even saying much

[silk surge]

That's saying a lot.

[hybrid steppe]

BF4 had its 4th DLC dropped in July 2014.

And every single one came with new guns

[night minnow]

How come people are still crying wtf? How much people can be desperate?

[silk surge]

Because I want this game to succeed and DICE won't get their shit together.

[hybrid steppe]

Because the circus just keeps on giving

[night minnow]

Go play the old games if you prefer and stop spreading toxic around 2042 community!

[ocean isle]

for some reason I was playing portal and after I play all game warefare every vehicle reset to default

[upbeat sand]

Season 1 is bout become yellow fever

[stone cradle]

you're missing the point, people want this game to be good, but DICE is doing the bare minimum effort to get it done

[silk surge]

Yeah, it's an extremely annoying bug. If you enter a gamemode where certain vehicles are disabled, those vehicles will have their loadout reset.

[ocean isle]

that so stupid if the developers didn’t look into

[silk surge]

Infantry Conquest resets the loadouts of every vehicle besides LAV and Hovercraft.

[night minnow]

I still play 2042 and will continue but i like how it is thats why i play it... if i like something else more ill go and play that... its easy :)

[severe carbon]

I dont complain about the game because I dont have any other hobbies I complain because I play the game a lot and I think the game has potential but Dice wont see it through in many ways

Im not gonna play something else, I like the game somewhat, but it has very frustrating elements worth complaining about

[hybrid steppe]

Yeah and the player count certainly shows that people are playing something else

[night minnow]

One game cannot shape into everyones wishes...

[severe carbon]

well this one sure seems to have failed to shape into very many peoples wishes looking at the player count lol

[night minnow]

Everyone is free to play whatever they want :D

[severe carbon]

and a lot of people seem to want to not play this, which is a shame because I play this 🙂

[silk surge]

Liking something doesn't mean it's above criticism. I have almost 700 hours logged, and I want this game to be better, but as the other Günter stated, DICE keeps half-assing shit.

[forest snow]

I have a couple off questions what do you like about 2042 and what was your first battlefield

[night minnow]

I play from bf2 every bf game and i like specialists and big maps plus 128p mode

[ocean isle]

It just happen again I spawn ka help and it reset to default

[silk surge]

I wanna answer this question. I like 128 players in certain maps. My first Battlefield was Bad Company 2.

[ocean isle]

While playing exodus conquest

[forest snow]

Ouch

[random copper]

Congrats EA DICE they made it again nerfed the number of total AIR ATTACK vehicles 😡

I hope this game got ruinned finally

[night minnow]

Coz birds are hunting infantry?

[silk surge]

The plus system is fucking amazing. Being able to adjust your gun on the spot based on the situation feels really cool. Switching to longbarrel at long range encounters, and to silencer and red dot at CQC.

[random copper]

i never would to purchase another BF

[night minnow]

True

[random copper]

thats not the way to fix

[lucid goblet]

did you all have chance to read the patch notes for today?

[severe carbon]

yes

[silk surge]

I also like the extreme weather effects.

[random copper]

condor makes more damage

super hind as well

[night minnow]

Ya cool changes

[pine roost]

That single aircraft number change has me more doubtful about the future of this game than anything else. Doesn’t actually address any of the actual issues, just tries to kill off the role entierly

[silk surge]

I did, it's quite big for a patch that DICE has been completely silent about. It's almost as big as 4.0.

[random copper]

EA DICE ruinned finally the JETS PILOTS roll finally

[severe carbon]

wish they wouldnt take the emp nade belt from Sundance, that was pretty handy. If anything, I was hoping they'd add a smoke nade belt, that would be crazy handy and make me consider playing Sundance way more

[night minnow]

S1 will be epic!

[silk surge]

Yeah, they're once again taking feedback from the wrong people.

[random copper]

do you know how many jets needed to take down a super hind o condor piloting by a squad of tryhard on board ?

[pine roost]

Oh and if we still don’t get a roll camera toggle this patch I will just be genuinely confused

[foggy halo]

I don't read patch notes, I play game

[lucid goblet]

yeah it's a big patch for sure, got some great changes in there, the tweaks to hitreg and animations are what i'm looking forward to most 😄

[random copper]

I think people complening about vehicles dont have experience in air battles

[forest snow]

Lol

[severe carbon]

im very glad theyre finally adding ladder bailing, cant believe that wasnt in the game at launch

improved netcode for hit detection could be huge, if true, which may be a big if

[silk surge]

I think a lot of the complaining about air vehicles comes from people that are used to playing Metro all day. That's the absolute worst part about the matchmaking system. You have these two groups of completely different Battlefield players, and the matchmaking forces them to play together.

[night minnow]

Im curious what is your expectation? If you dont like the game why are you still around?

[severe carbon]

S1 is better than nothing but i wouldnt say its gonna be epic, its one map and two guns, and some vehicles I wont use. Probably one of the guns will just be a sidearm too

[silk surge]

I feel like the netcode has been in a pretty good place since 4.0. It's even better than BFV's current netcode.

[pine roost]

I do agree that there needs to be more infantry focussed maps, the fact there’s no map that have no air vehicles means there’s nothing that the aircraft haters can go to

[severe carbon]

I definitely still get shot around corners, not sure if pilots are still getting bad hit reg on rocket launchers or not

[lucid goblet]

it's definitely better than it was at launch,still get instances of being shot after moving behind cover and people going invisible.

[silk surge]

Yeah, that's never going away. There's only so much DICE is able to improve upon when it comes to netcode. Every single Frostbite Battlefield game has that issue.

[lucid goblet]

https://tenor.com/view/5minutes-five-minutes-ill-wait-gif-10843127

[severe carbon]

would bumping the tick rate on 64 player servers help some

[jolly island]

Are there any players in Aussie servers?

[pine roost]

Until what?

[lucid goblet]

patch goes live

[silk surge]

There's also the problem of TTD not being consistent with the TTK, as bullets get registered within one frame sometimes, which makes it feel like you got one shot by something that doesn't one shot.

[pine roost]

With the trailer?

[lucid goblet]

trailer this afternoon

[pine roost]

So the bug fix side of the patch comes out now, but the content and the trailer later today?

[silk surge]

That's right.

[pine roost]

Aight

[silk surge]

Well... The content probably arrives next week, but trailer is today.

[lucid goblet]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Hfeb7eIzbo

[pine roost]

Hopefully there could be some undocumented changes like last time that fix some things that haven’t been addressed yet

[silk surge]

That's such a weird logo tbh, they make it look like an e-sport tournament.

[severe carbon]

I mean Id rather they document changes but sure

hopefully they didnt entirely rework the guns again without saying anything

[pine roost]

With 4.0 there were like 80 undocumented changes that were actually fairly significant

[lucid goblet]

yeah sometimes changes don't make it into the patch notes for w/e reason

[severe carbon]

I guess theres just too many changes but I mean anything significant, such as reworking every gun, should be put in the notes

[lucid goblet]

I quite like it tbf, new colour scheme is v. similar to the BFV pacific launch too

[jolly island]

Should I give this game another chance?

[severe carbon]

update is live

[lucid goblet]

only way to know is by finding out for yourself tbh

[severe carbon]

if you only ever played the game early on when it was pretty buggy then sure give it another shot

[severe carbon]

PC download size is 10.37 GB

[jolly island]

alright I will start downloading the game now, but this is last chance DICE gets

[lucid goblet]

https://tenor.com/view/heaving-breathing-kitty-fat-cat-chubby-cat-gif-17820448

[pine roost]

One thing I hope for is that the 'vehicle damage xp event' actually DOES show you the exact damage you've done

[crude radish]

Power of Fiberrrrrr

[pine roost]

i don't see why it shouldn't but anything is possible

[twin fractal]

Please be good

[pale heron]

You'll be the only one playing, the other are still updating

[still hamlet]

No update yet for PS5 in Missouri

[hidden sand]

No update for ps4 either

[crude radish]

inb4, rebind all my settings.

[lucid goblet]

might have to do a full console restart for it to show

[warm tapir]

12gig update??

[still hamlet]

Update just pushed on PS5 in Missouri

[crude radish]

10gb on Origin

[waxen turret]

and did you enjoy playing s1 :D?

[white geyser]

Luckily I have BF 2042 on PS5, but I'll check tomorrow's update on my console because I'm tired right now and still up late

[warm tapir]

I use steam

i'm not that lucky

[hidden sand]

Carpo, if you plan to play, can you tell if there are any major improvements to first person movement animations?

[waxen turret]

Hahahahah yes yes yes 😂 🍻

[jolly island]

53 GB download on Steam, 2 hours till I can play again 😄

[lucid goblet]

i'll be loading up as soon as it's done patching

[naive sandal]

updating on my ps5, you might have to manually check for updates

[hidden sand]

Based

[silk surge]

BFV launched with 30 guns and ended with 65 guns (iirc).

[jolly island]

do you have NASA internet?

[waxen turret]

omg she is hot

[hidden sand]

I can't play rn but I'm super curious about the animation improvements

[still hamlet]

Update was pushed right after I posted that. Hahaha

[pine roost]

orang

[next onyx]

Didn't you see the sample we got Suika?

Or do you mean the other improvements.

[hidden sand]

Other improvements, specifically to first person animations

[pine roost]

15 mins and I can load it up :|

[soft dagger]

[next onyx]

Honestly we'll see if it's just less glitchy.

[crude radish]

Fiber internet

[silk surge]

Oh wow... It's an 8gb update.

[waxen turret]

im happy this specialist looks normal instead of the other specialist lol

[pine roost]

btw, do we know about any other gadgets being added? We are basically only getting 1, which is a bit low

[silk surge]

SRAW is the only one confirmed, which is tied to Lis.

[pine roost]

wait the sraw is a specialist gadget?

[hidden sand]

Unfortunately

[silk surge]

Yes, that's the new specialist's gadget.

[pine roost]

I thought that was going to be universal

[low solar]

Just finished updating

[waxen turret]

omg... so i cant use the sraw while playing mackay? 😡

[pine roost]

welp, I guess we'll be seeing lone wolf sraw users with ammo boxes now

[silk surge]

I wouldn't say that it's unfortunate tbh... It means that you can carry an SRAW and C5 at the same time now.

[hidden sand]

They should just make 2 open gadget slots with limitations on what you can use depending on one of your choicws

[pine roost]

and if it's an effective anti-air, reducing the aircraft count at this time might not have been the best move

[silk surge]

Given that it's a specialist gadget, it might self-replenish like the other specialist gadgets.

[plucky pebble]

i thought we were getting the new season right now sadge

[waxen turret]

no the 9th xD

[pine roost]

well i'll at least try it out later on, doubtful that i'd play much more though

[silk surge]

I mean, that's more or less the case if you see the specialists as gadgets with personalities attached to them.

[twin fractal]

Let us know how it plays

[crude radish]

LOADING SCREEN

[low solar]

Season starts in 2 days 3 hours and 46 minutes

[waxen turret]

!season1

[pine roost]

I treat them more like tacticals in titanfall. You choose the gadget but your model changes

[silk surge]

I love how they're calling this update Patch 1.0.

[river trench]

Season 1 better be worth the wait

[pine roost]

But tf doesn't have any cringe voice lines at all so it's already better

[plucky pebble]

bait or confirmed?

[waxen turret]

confirmed by tom henderson

[silk surge]

Anything confirmed by Tom Henderson should be taken with a grain of salt.

[waxen turret]

i know but hes right now

[silk surge]

Oh wow... We're getting a crossbow in Season 1 lol

[plucky pebble]

since we got the banner now of the season 1 maybe we will

[dapper berry]

Crossbow and as val

[hidden sand]

A dmr and a crossbow

This is fucking beautiful.

What is up with her hair? It looks super flat lol

[twin fractal]

Play test???

[crude radish]

live build

[next isle]

👀

[next onyx]

I thought she'd be an assault.

Cause you know.

It makes sense.

[silk surge]

Oh man, she's really cute ngl

[waxen turret]

this is my new "favorite" specialist

[next onyx]

But It also makes sense to be an engineer as well cause of high tech.

[warm tapir]

Only 2 new guns?

[next onyx]

2 new guns, A DMR AS VAL.

And a crossbow.

With a smoke launcher.

[stark hearth]

LMAO

[hidden sand]

Ah I guess its your settings way, that screenshot from Henry looks way better

[hollow fossil]

Surely they will add more guns later on in the season...

[next onyx]

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FUosa-MXwAAFYGg?format=jpg&name=4096x4096

[stark hearth]

Haha..... Surely........

[hollow fossil]

one can only hope...

[next onyx]

Yeah I got it from tempo, My game hasn't updated quite yet LOL.

[white geyser]

It's hard to tell, but she remind me of another character from a different game

[bright wharf]

Wow Lis looking LIT

[waxen turret]

Huh? the new specialist requires battle pass tier 4? so not everyone can use this specialist right?

[jolly island]

anyone streaming the new update?

[silk surge]

She looks like Brigitte from Overwatch.

[dapper berry]

Free tier

[next onyx]

Oh yeah people with the ultimate edition will get these things right out of the gate LMAO.

[next onyx]

SHE'S CUTE.

[hollow fossil]

gold edition as well right?

[next onyx]

Give head pats.

[warm tapir]

Guess i gotta buy the battlepass

[waxen turret]

yes man i thought the same

[next onyx]

Yeah sorry should be for gold edition too.

[crude radish]

Not until the timer ends. I got the ultimate Ed

[silk surge]

So I guess this mean we're only getting one new gadget as well... smoke launcher.

[hidden sand]

Yeah she looks pretty well designed in terms of sticking out. The glasses help.

[waxen turret]

lmao gold edition doesnt get her?

[next onyx]

Smoke launcher is pointless.

[silk surge]

I have ultimate edition, and I can't access anything either.

[next onyx]

I'm not sure about gold but she's at rank 4 so that's a none issue.

[lucid goblet]

new helo

[next onyx]

Yeah because the season hasn't started.

[hollow fossil]

honestly I think we should go back to the premium stuff this live service isn't really working out

[next onyx]

But SCAR smokes, smoke launcher and smole nades we shall give cancer and kills come up 40 years from now

Hmm yes.

[stark hearth]

"Each Battlefield 2042 Season;

• 1 Specialist
• 2 New Maps
• 2 Portal Maps
• Hazard Zone Update (Story-driven)
• 6-8 New Weapons (for each mode)
• 2-3 New Vehicles (for each mode)
• 100 Season Tiers"

Said who?

[warm tapir]

How long will the season last

[waxen turret]

Dice? before the launch lol

[scenic tartan]

ToM hEnDRSn

[next onyx]

12 weeks I think. But we'll wait.

[lucid goblet]

that was never said officially lol

[next isle]

Where?

[hidden sand]

Disappointed with the new weapons tbh, and the fact that the new gadget is already usable via UGL

[hollow fossil]

Well hazard zone was dropped

[upbeat sand]

way way way better

[silk surge]

The new DMR has a supressor integrated to the gun... Idk how to feel about that, kinda devalues the plus system.

[crude radish]

New skins found!

[low timber]

Can you see her mastery requirements yet?

[low solar]

I’m in the game but my lobbies won’t fill
Stays at 5 or 6 #

[upbeat sand]

portal maps where said to have new ones every few weeks or months not season

[upbeat sand]

people still updating

[jolly island]

Please support Hazard Zone! 😦

[silk surge]

The NTW tier 97 Battlepass reward looks dope.

[stark hearth]

Pretty sure Dice said they were going to drop support for Hazard Zone for now

[lucid goblet]

new smoke launcher, bigger area than current smokes by the looks of it

[hollow fossil]

They dropped it completely

[wise yew]

oh LOOK the pp29 has a built in drum mag.. kinda defeats the plus system i duno how to feel about that.. oh look the scar has a built in grenade launcher...

[pine roost]

you can see the BP?

[stark hearth]

I was not expecting much from this update and I'm still disappointed lmao

[next onyx]

Hopefully grenade launcher smoke is decent now.

[crude radish]

rao!!!

[next isle]

nice

[scenic tartan]

that smoke launcher will be really useful for breakthrough

[silk surge]

Uhm apparently you can apply skins to secondary weapons now 😮

[stark hearth]

Just what everyone wanted, a new DMR

[scenic tartan]

looks neat

[cerulean token]

this is insane

[lucid goblet]

yup,looks pretty good!

[hidden sand]

Given there's 100 tiers in a BP, I'm confident 60-20 of those will be flat textures with the rest being actual cosmetics (plus the new unlocks)

[mossy granite]

Full auto dmr lmao

[cerulean token]

my favorite gun ❤️

[next onyx]

400 RPM semi auto AS VAL.

That is interesting.

[low timber]

It’s a full auto DMR.

[scenic tartan]

Im a little confused about giving a specialist a controllable launcher that has regen. Hopefully she has to resupply like other launchers

[surreal tulip]

https://youtube.com/shorts/IPdsPtDnD-Y?feature=share

[next onyx]

Stop reading my mind on what I'm about to post.

[regal lintel]

wow guys! is this real?

[scenic tartan]

as val looks great

[low timber]

Never!

[hollow fossil]

Will the crossbow function like the xbow from bf3?

[hidden sand]

What do you mean, I thought we already could?

[next onyx]

REEEEE.

We'll see, J.

[regal lintel]

now BFbroken42 is pay to win? if you dont spend money, you cant have the new guns?

[hollow fossil]

It's the free tier

[lucid goblet]

i like how there's now a button to hide the menu UI for inspecting weapons etc 🔥

[low timber]

Sadly the crossbow is a primary, as what I loved of the bf3 Xbow was the gadget side of it

[warm tapir]

Stop cry

[regal lintel]

or what?

[next onyx]

The Xbow was one of a kind.

[next onyx]

You don't even need to spend money for the new guns do you actually read?

[lucid goblet]

guns etc are all free

[sweet fox]

[hollow fossil]

Oh yeah, I mean considering they have limited gadgets slots for universal use

[regal lintel]

tnx, didnt know and was mad already

[silk surge]

Holy shit, guys, check out the commando takedown animation.

[low timber]

Show us

[stark hearth]

"didn't know and was mad already"

[lucid goblet]

only cosmetic stuff is part of premium

[cerulean token]

this is new drone ??

[river trench]

How can u see all that

[hollow fossil]

Let's see how the new map plays out

[lucid goblet]

looks cool asf don't it!

[hidden sand]

At least they acknowledged their mistake lol
Most people keep on raging

[hidden sand]

Is it third person?

[stark hearth]

Yes

[hidden sand]

Figures, rip

[hollow fossil]

Yeah well people were hoping for more content for season 1 and with mw2 coming up it's gonna be even harder for 2042 to keep up unless mw2 flops which we will see soon

[next onyx]

So really.

[stark hearth]

Oh yeah 2042 is going to die even more once MW2 comes out haha

[next onyx]

Liz works more as an assault but she's technically an engineer.

God I can't wait to use her rocket launcher and trait.

[hollow fossil]

Now that looks like a nice skin

[warm tapir]

Show us all skins lol

[upbeat sand]

the new gvt

[hollow fossil]

Hoping for some gun skins that visually change the guns look

[crude radish]

wait a moment

[cerulean token]

+1

[next onyx]

Who's that for?

[crude radish]

Casper

[tepid briar]

Looks dope what specialist is that for

[next onyx]

First train of thought was Angel.

[silk surge]

I can't even tell which specialist that is, I love it.

[crude radish]

casper

[hollow fossil]

They added a karambit for melees

[cerulean token]

it's look like a helicopter driver

[lucid goblet]

best skin so far

[next onyx]

That is good.

[hidden sand]

Ye I was right, looks like most of the cosmetics will be re-textures rather than actual mesh changes

[bright wharf]

lmao they still didn't update the year on the start screen, it's still 2021

[next onyx]

Is that Angel?]

[lucid goblet]

yup

[stark hearth]

So the BP hasn't even started yet?

[next onyx]

Thought so.

Lemme show something.

[pine roost]

Me when this used to be default when loading in as a pilot

[hollow fossil]

Yo that's fire

[next onyx]

It's similar to these in a way.

[tepid briar]

Is this Boris

[hidden sand]

Yeah, for some reason theres an in-game countdown for content thats already in the game lol.

[stark hearth]

Jesus lmao

[hollow fossil]

Boris has a nice skin

[lucid goblet]

Angel

[sinful ore]

I don't like that blue belts but looks fine

[stark hearth]

Gotta build hype!!!! And give them time to fix all the bugs the update probably introduced

[lucid goblet]

yup, sems to be finally heading in the concept art direction 🔥

[cerulean token]

i want this ❤️

[tepid briar]

What’s Boris’s?

[waxen turret]

why are we getting a bunch of skins.... we want new map and new weapons lol

[hollow fossil]

This

[crude radish]

yup....

[stark hearth]

Now we wait for the cash shop to open up for the supposed anime skins

[sinful ore]

is there a skin for mackay?

[silk surge]

yes

[stark hearth]

Because skins are the easiest laziest content to add and they can make money off of them

[hollow fossil]

maybe later on in the season who knows ig we gotta wait

[mossy badge]

team that makes skins are different

[low timber]

That’s a big ass helmet

Reminds me little bit of space balls

[mossy badge]

he sleepy

[tepid briar]

Wtf an old man?

[silk surge]

I love this skin so much

[white geyser]

Remind me of Tom Clancy's Division 2 enemies

[cerulean token]

apart from angel I am disappointed with the skins

[low timber]

Can we have a clip of the new specialist gadget video? If it’s available yet.

[lucid goblet]

🤠

[sinful ore]

I rly love this

[cerulean token]

insane

[low timber]

Arthur Morgan approves

[silk surge]

This is a really cool takedown animation ngl

[cerulean token]

[next onyx]

I can see that yeah.

[arctic grove]

We got two new trash weapons im so done

[cerulean token]

lets goooooo

[stark hearth]

Yeah basically

[pine roost]

btw, the ai are able to play as the new heli already

[sinful ore]

that looks hurt

[desert elbow]

Sorry where are you guys finding these?

[waxen turret]

third person takedown animation 🤢 🤢 🤢 🤢 🤢

[stark hearth]

Do people actually care about 3rd person takedowns

[green bridge]

Update is live for PC if not known

[mossy badge]

🤦‍♀️

[waxen turret]

Make the takedowns like in Battlefield 4

[pine roost]

nope, they take far too long

[cerulean token]

show the karambit pls

[silk surge]

Where is that tusken raider skin for Casper that Temproyal showed us???

[lilac dust]

wait are BP stuff showing in game now?

[floral eagle]

1 attack heli OR 1 scout heli OR 1 jet in a 128 player game

[silk surge]

Yeah sec

[next onyx]

Yeah.

[glossy storm]

Like I said before, these animations would be so much cooler in first person.

[arctic grove]

How many guns are we getting in season 1?

[cerulean token]

thank youu

[lilac dust]

Apparently 2 lol

[arctic grove]

Wat

[forest spear]

https://twitter.com/BFBulletin/status/1534092762802421760?t=CXsRSDqxdEFakhrAxBRANw&s=19

[next isle]

[forest spear]

tom is right lol

[cerulean token]

but they said more ? no ?

[floral eagle]

b1g content update

[lilac dust]

Tom henderson leaks point to 2 guns

[topaz field]

30gbs on PC

[next onyx]

Didn't he say it was a crossbow and a pistol?

[cerulean token]

okay

[next onyx]

He only got it half right lol.

[tepid briar]

This looks terrible where’s the helmet

[next onyx]

We got a new semi auto in the VSS Vintorez.

[low timber]

What do you mean? AS VAL is obviously a pistol

[slow kraken]

What shit weapons to add

[lucid goblet]

https://tenor.com/view/seriously-come-on-come-on-man-wtf-wtf-blink-gif-14063967

[cerulean token]

[next onyx]

My GOD I messed it all up!

[cerulean token]

[forest spear]

a marksman rifle and a crossbow lol

and one grenade launcher gadget

[next onyx]

A semi and a crossbow. Not a pistol and a crossbow.

[low timber]

Sooo… the new specialist introduction video?

[next onyx]

It's a smoke launcher.

[hidden sand]

I thought it would be an lmg and a pistol, but this do be more disappointing lol.

[silk surge]

Here are the other two.

[slow kraken]

Not even a new SMG or AR and we still only have 2 LMGS lmao

[forest spear]

8 months btw

[cerulean token]

insane :0

[forest spear]

dcml

[summer zenith]

Wait the update is already there?

[next onyx]

Oh so the rocket launcher is a TV missile.

[lilac dust]

Imma be honest, I wouldnt be so pissed about taking 8 months to give us so little content if there wasn't another BF coming out a couple years later.... With how long it takes to get these games to a good state we need them to stay the current BF game for at least 5 years

[summer zenith]

Hmm

[hidden sand]

A tv missile? Oo boy I can already see the struggles of using it on console given how janky aiming is right now lol

[slow kraken]

Tbh they are going to give us the bare minimum since the game wasn't really a success so it's not surprising

Anything on the new map?

[sweet fox]

nothing for Portal

[white geyser]

I been begging of them, to add tv missile for the wildcat tank for months

[upbeat sand]

dang u guys are in im still updating

[pine roost]

They’ve done something to the stinger

New UI elements and some box thing that flies off

[buoyant lake]

do u guys think 2042 is a lot of fun

[hidden sand]

The tv missile on the apache in bf3 portal is really tedious to use so I hope this one is improved

[low timber]

Excuse me what? Can you post a clip?

[pine roost]

Holy the nightbird feels really different

[upbeat sand]

the soundtrack when listening it as it was ment to be is actually very fitting

[lilac dust]

Oh god.... that scares me

Different in a good way?

[pine roost]

It’s hard to pinpoint

There’s more drift when yawing. But the flight stability is REAAAALLY strong

[analog fractal]

2. Fucking. Guns.

DICE............

[low timber]

One gun and one crossbow

[pine roost]

Like if you bank to the side it evens you out straight away

[low timber]

To be exact

[white geyser]

I want a crossbow in 2042

[marble pumice]

Teabagging is an artform

[low timber]

So do I, but not as a primary

[analog fractal]

Why haven't they even added any portal guns for season 1?

[wise yew]

connected to and auto disconnected to the SAME server 5 times now. w only 4 people in it. GG dice. GG

[lilac dust]

Pretty sure they said they will

[onyx mica]

omg it is big

[undone bone]

Season 1 ain't even out yet

[silk surge]

There's only one gamemode now called "playtest-dicero", is that a bug?

[pine roost]

Oh my god they’ve completely butchered these controls

[analog fractal]

Why would the new guns leak but not the portal ones?

[lilac dust]

You can't leak what's already in the game

[undone bone]

^

[slow kraken]

I like how they added the AS VAL when it's been in Portal since day 1

[undone bone]

Leaks moreoften than not come from datamining.

[forest spear]

honestly im only excited for the new map the rest are average

[undone bone]

So assets that're already there won't be considered in a way that would prove they're going to be in AoW for S1

Tmu

[analog fractal]

Lmao

[silk surge]

The loading screen now shows how many people are waiting in the lobby (also, nobody seems to be playing playtest-dicero 😦 )

[forest spear]

aren't they gonna move portal guns to aow?

[arctic grove]

Somebody leaked the map and it looks sh** it’s empty and looks like ps2 graphics lmao

[crude radish]

No stuttering for me. Happy

[dapper berry]

That's what they did with the vss

[shy latch]

I guess it's the one that only allowed content creators can access to prior to S1 public release

[desert elbow]

Could you send it to me please?

[lilac dust]

Oh god... that's not healthy to show how many players there are waiting in lobby queue .... that just makes people more likely to leave

[arctic grove]

HERE IS THE NEW MAP PS2 GRAPHICS CONFIRMED https://twitter.com/temporyal/status/1534096028571410433?s=21&t=VdKx3BiXded92iUvcjqgng

[next onyx]

New in game hub.

Not hub.

Hud.

[silk surge]

Its the only gamemode that is available right now. How am I supposed to play?

[onyx mica]

hub

[cerulean token]

I can't wait to finish work and go home to play

[forest spear]

u got any pic?

[analog fractal]

Empty fields hype

[low timber]

What’s new?

[wise yew]

12 tries to get into a game... switch to breakthrough.. get in.. and then CRASH to boat screen. smh. cmon dice you can DO better. i was STABLE before this.

[silk surge]

I like the "squad resupply", that's new.

[crude radish]

Mods , wipe the chat

[arctic grove]

Ps2 that nobody uses anymor

[stone cradle]

I sure wonder how this game will stay alive after MW2

[arctic grove]

Yeah click the link

[slow kraken]

Looks so empty

[silk surge]

There shouldn't be a boat screen in the new UI, I think your game hasn't updated.

[hidden sand]

Ah first person animations look the same, what a shame.

[analog fractal]

"Where's the cover?"
"It's called "Exposure", remember? 😏"

[arctic grove]

I assume they're saying that portal hasn't been mentioned in s1

[wise yew]

i was joking about the boat.. but it did crash to the into screen. / wait screen.

[arctic grove]

And portal is like, the most well recieved part of 2042

[wise yew]

ACTUALLY there is a boat in the back ground... i was right anyways.

[haughty plume]

1 new vehicle 1 new map 1 specialist 2 new guns one is from portal and a gadget wow 6 months guys

[shy latch]

oh really? damn, I don't know 'cause I didn't update yet; so there is no way to play a classic game mode outside portal?

[silk surge]

I restarted, and now the gamemodes appeared.

[haughty plume]

https://c.tenor.com/yjzQ9U3CLzUAAAAM/battlefield-2042.gif

[low timber]

I wonder how much damage that TV missile launcher does to tanks and air vehicles

[shy latch]

you are talking like they did nothing during this period apart the new content

[analog fractal]

TV missiles are available in the new map? That's nice at least

[upbeat sand]

with this smoke launcher soon i hope that medics will start doing the bfv smoke revive thing

[low timber]

TV missile is the new specialist gadget

[slow kraken]

The issue with them adding only 1 new specialist is everyone is going to use that specialist so you're going to have 32v32 of Lis

[analog fractal]

Oh....

[haughty plume]

Making a game even tho it already launched 🤡

[upbeat sand]

just like the simulations

[analog fractal]

I'm confused why they haven't added any stationary guns in AOW tbh

[stone cradle]

Smoke launcher was the life . imo BFV was the best BF for medics.

[naive sandal]

probably not high/ultra settings...

[upbeat sand]

they where pretty useless except the tow launcher in past games (other than the bf1 stationary mgs)

[low timber]

And BFV stationary MGs we’re pretty powerful as well

[onyx mica]

wtf i love the color

[upbeat sand]

reject blue return to breaking bad tint

[cerulean token]

yes it's nice ^^

[onyx mica]

[uncut bay]

how could we have guessed that it'd be barren with zero cover 🤔

[slow kraken]

Same as the BFV one

[analog fractal]

All those studios and only 2 guns and 1 map

[stone cradle]

I mean tbf it was probably made with the launch maps too.

[analog fractal]

After 7 months

[onyx mica]

omg yea

[low timber]

Just realized we are not in the ship in the menu screen

[uncut bay]

yeah, would've just expected their focus to have been on making this map up to par, since it's taken them a very long time just to tweak kaleidoscope

[umbral island]

Is the new update any good?

[silk surge]

THEY BROUGHT THE NEMESIS SYSTEM BACK. You can now see how many times you have killed a particular enemy and vice versa.

[low timber]

Oh yeah, Kaleidoscope got changed now didn’t it

[river trench]

No?

[upbeat sand]

now watch him t bag you

[dapper berry]

Nice

[uncut bay]

nah lol that's coming far later

[cerulean token]

it's funny

[uncut bay]

august iirc

[remote meteor]

So they said first season in june but next update is supposed to be in early july?

When is the new stuff coming then?

[low timber]

S1 is June

[next isle]

The update dropped today

[slow kraken]

June

[stone cradle]

nice, another 'legacy feature'

[low timber]

on the 9th

[remote meteor]

With the map overhaul and new weapons?

[stone cradle]

That's coming with S1

[next onyx]

They don't play their quotes anymore.

Such a shame.

[next isle]

Can't comment on specifics, I'm not super informed this time

[remote meteor]

yeah but season 1 is supposed to come as an update right?

[upbeat sand]

dont be sad its just how it works out sometimes

[stone cradle]

This update is just a little patch to help with S1 releasing this month

[umbral island]

Bad communications

[shy latch]

according to the roadmap the reworked map should be out during the S1 period, so i highly doubt will be out on the next few days

[pine roost]

how did they manage to break the nightbird even more

[next onyx]

ADS bug is still in.

[stone cradle]

Yeah ofc, huge one

[remote meteor]

yea

[next isle]

(I'm not informed because I don't work on the game and have been busy)

[upbeat sand]

wait i have the game on steam and my mobile has steam link so that means

i can play 2042 mobile

[umbral island]

I know, i was joking

[upbeat sand]

i will post a screenshot onto reddit and say its a leak

[stone cradle]

[upbeat sand]

free karma

[summer zenith]

Yes

[upbeat sand]

what does karma even do its useless

[digital vortex]

How big is update on PS5 ?

[summer zenith]

Nothing

[upbeat sand]

on pc about 10-9 gb so maybe around 6-9gb idk

[forest snow]

700 hours in I have hope but everything they do at the moment seems be the wrong thing

[digital vortex]

Thanks

[upbeat sand]

6-9

[summer zenith]

Nice

[proven kindle]

They should make jets their own categories

[summer zenith]

They should add boats

[onyx mica]

they reduce the chopper?

[proven kindle]

Yup

[umbral island]

It’s 10GB on last gen🤨

[summer zenith]

I want the bow to come back

[loud flower]

Okay
We finally got a preview mode (about goddamn time)
But
Why is the weapon/room moving around
Why are we limited to a single axis
Why is the zoom function limited to a ridiculously narrow range
Why is there a focus limit blurring part of the weapon when a part is too close
Why is the damn weapon not axed to the center of the screen

[onyx mica]

we need a boat

[low timber]

OH you can now zoom and rotate the weapons in the collection screen

[loud flower]

This inspection mode is ridiculously bad for the length of the list so had to note down

[low timber]

Yeah, the zoom only has two levels

[upbeat sand]

when they add water filled maps

[onyx mica]

hovercraft can't swim anymore?

[low timber]

And it feels weird on console that the rotate is on the left stick

[dapper berry]

How does the game feel with this update ?

[low timber]

wtf, are those balls on hte new US heli windows?

[upbeat sand]

i opened steam big picture on 99% patching and it got reset to 40% patching

[loud flower]

You want to zoom in on the foregrip or the muzzle device ? Well too bad because bringing them up front will make them fckn blurry and you won't even see the muzzle device if you zoom in
Also why is the room MOVING AROUND the weapon is completely to the side of my screen even though it's pointed at me !

[bitter sphinx]

The date is still not corrected xD

[umbral island]

It’s 2021😟

[onyx mica]

lol

is it complainathon time

[scenic tartan]

that new gadget is insanely OP, she gets two and it one shots helis and it regens, and she can carry a stinger too?
why play anyone else?

[digital vortex]

8.268Gb on PS5 just connected remote play from work haha

[loud flower]

THEY DIDN'T MAKE THE GNOME WEAPON CHARM 3D
IT'S ALMOST FLAT
THAT'S SUCH A MISSED OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE A GOOD WEAPON CHARM

[forest spear]

things getting leaked out before the trailer i guess thats the only few contents were getting for s1 https://twitter.com/temporyal/status/1534094252354985985

[onyx mica]

imma give the new update all awards ty

[forest spear]

well done dice

[uncut bay]

good, we need more anti aircraft weaponry

[chilly jacinth]

wait the game has weapon charms?

[slow kraken]

It will be 32v32 of Lis

[loud flower]

That's not leaked, you can preview all of those in the game

[arctic grove]

They still have not fixed the 2 round burst bug on automatic weapons

[chilly jacinth]

why would anyone ever use those

[white geyser]

DICE, make a proper comeback and not keep us waiting for how long

[loud flower]

Isn't the AK-24 supposed to fire two round bursts ?

[forest snow]

Anything in the store yet?

[loud flower]

Nope

[white geyser]

Nope and I been using it long time

[arctic grove]

All automatic weapons it bursts on auto if you tap fire

[hollow fossil]

server browser would have been nice

[loud flower]

Huh

[low timber]

WTF, the bots are using the new stealth heli!

[wise yew]

BIG facts

[loud flower]

It's hard but not impossible to get one round taps

[next isle]

Image/video?

[dapper berry]

Snipe them and take it

[slow kraken]

Legacy feature

[white geyser]

AOW needs server browser

[hollow fossil]

considering i keep getting put into waiting for player lobbies isn't even fun

[low timber]

Gimme a sec, it flew away, need to catch up to it.

[arctic grove]

I just select semi when i need to but its a bug that is a bit of a pain

[tame cobalt]

Temporyal revealing season 1 so dice don't have to he's so kind

[wise yew]

again big facts. and when i do get in.. im in untill i die and then its back to the load in screen

[hollow fossil]

idk man they added it for portal but not AoW

[tame cobalt]

Oh damn a crossbow

Still only 2 lmgs

[slow kraken]

DICE hates LMG users

[onyx mica]

once again thank you! imma play now

[tame cobalt]

Smoke grenade launcher gadget, bfv medics rejoice!

[brittle atlas]

Wooo update

[loud flower]

They modified the aircraft behavior
And now whatever knowledge I had of flying helos is ruined
Why

[white geyser]

https://tenor.com/view/the-walking-dead-walking-dead-norman-reedus-daryl-dixon-crossbow-gif-7694807

[tame cobalt]

Poggers

[loud flower]

THE RESPAWN BEACON IS GIGANTIC NOW
WHY

[low timber]

Do you want it in DMs?

[loud flower]

This is such a massive nerf to the beacon

[next isle]

Sure

[pine roost]

the heli controls are terrible now. I don't get how they managed to mess it up so bad

[cerulean token]

show pls

[tame cobalt]

New legendary angel skin looks fire

[low timber]

There Mozzy, its sent.

[loud flower]

Can't post pics in here
Go in game, it's over elevated by a tripod and it's absolutely chonky
Why must they nerf the only thing that I ever use in this game

[loud flower]

Who tf thought this was a good idea

[uncut bay]

and people wonder why hope is being lost. Seems like every time they do something good they also do something bad

[onyx mica]

what changed about helis

[wise yew]

ok... respawn beacon is beyond lame.. oh.. and try to start a solo game.. nope back to the load in screen again.

[loud flower]

Their very behavior when airborne

[wise yew]

lets make a BAR STOOL that beeps lights up and SPINS.. but.. no one is gonna camp that at range.. nawww.

[hidden sand]

Why is there a countdown timer for the content we can see, in game, right now? Lol

[pine roost]

roll is completely broken and simply doesn't work. It tries to even yourself out constantly when no input is applied

[uncut bay]

though to be fair the spawn beacon was ridiculously tiny, it needed to be made bigger in some way

[onyx mica]

i see

[loud flower]

So it appears (at least in solo game) that you can now deploy your chute in time
But if you do it too close to the ground, you get damage
I mean it makes some sense but why

Beacon is not only beefy ASF but now it has a massive hitbox so now it blocks the way

[silk surge]

The end of round has been reworked a lot in this patch:

• Specialist EOR quips are completely removed from the game, and replaced with custom animations (like Paik taking her tactical visor off).
• The experience/ribbon gains have new sound effects
• The game no longer switched to victory/defeat screen, it instead shows victory/defeat at the top corner, and then fades to black.

[wise yew]

to be fair.. the same thing should be achieved by a flare or a micro eprb beacon. respawn beacons need to be able to be HIDDEN not... turned into an emplacement more inline for a 50 cal machinegun.

[arctic grove]

Is it harder to fly with helis now?

[wise yew]

damn thing is big enough to put a ma duce on.

[pine roost]

it's impossible

[arctic grove]

Damn...

Why would they

[pine roost]

best way i could describe it is this. Say you are playing infantry, but whenever your aim is below the horizon it starts to move by itself towards the horizon. How much would that mess up your aim?

Cause that's what's going on here but incredibly strong

[arctic grove]

This is so sad

[loud flower]

I hear a tuktuk from 50m away as if it was next to me
I swap to my pistol, get a kill, swap back to primary, it randomly decides to reswap to pistol for no reason whatsoever
They say to have buffed shotgun accuracy, I seemingly deal less damage than before

[arctic grove]

This is currently my favorite game but if they ruined helis then idk bro

[silk surge]

They buffed shotgun accuracy? Didn't MCS literally snipe people?

[loud flower]

I deploy my chute, I toggle to control my glide, it doesn't do anything whatsoever but making me slightly lean to the left

[bright wharf]

There's lots of hidden changes in this patch and I'm already liking many of them

[hidden sand]

Fuck vehicle players right? Why can they not get these things right lol.

[loud flower]

Go figure
It's in the patch notes

[loud flower]

Bro the entire update is a shitshow, what is there to it to like

[silk surge]

Because of the stupid matchmaking system. It forces metro junkies and vehicle enjoyers to play together, which leads to bad feedback.

[ocean isle]

Woah two new helicopters look sick

[scenic tartan]

air vehicles get indicators for stingers and anti armor now they will be much easier to dodge

[ocean isle]

Do u guys think the battle pass hard to achieve to get to tier 100

[uncut bay]

probably not

[silk surge]

Probably, I have very little experience with Battlepasses.

[onyx mica]

no players wtf cmon people update your game

[ocean isle]

Like doing the mission challenged and u earn some sort of point to level teir smilier to battle Royale game

[uncut bay]

but it could go either way, it might be very easy or it might be very tedious, i don't expect an inbetween

[silk surge]

I asked stupid Battlepass questions that got ratiod on Twitter because of how little I know about battlepasses.

[umbral island]

Will the new map have a natural disaster?

[uncut bay]

yeah leaks said it'd have a landslide iirc

[umbral island]

Cool

[silk surge]

I can't wait to see the landslide. It's nice to get another levolution event.

[hidden sand]

God damn the wildcat is so much faster now lol

[celest sinew]

Have yall seen the screenshots of the new map?

[silk surge]

They buffed the speed in 4.0. It competes with LAV in terms of speed lmao

[celest sinew]

Have any thoughts on it?

[umbral island]

No, can you dm them?

[uncut bay]

looks barren like all the other maps, not surprised but also not impressed

[celest sinew]

Sure Comrade

[onyx mica]

omg really now i will play wildcat then since i like recon speed

[loud flower]

I started a solo lobby, beginner level AIs shred me as if it was set on hard, what the hell
They got moves as if I was in an actual player lobby

[patent path]

Any performance improvement with this patch?

[marsh helm]

zero hour more like zero content lmfao

[river trench]

Zero cover

[uncut bay]

lmao

[wise yew]

yea. now instead of letting me finish a game. it kicks me to the load screen reminding me i should be playing soemthing else.

[cerulean token]

i see this joke 100000 time since 1 hour on twitter

[hollow fossil]

Zero hour honestly sounds like some night time operation shit, some night maps would be cool if only they release more than 1 map

[onyx mica]

eh nvm i thought they added more speed to it

[silk surge]

You can apply skins to secondaries now btw

[patent path]

ooooh nice

[hidden sand]

You already could lol

[uncut bay]

you've... always been able to do that? Was it not a thing on console lol?

[craggy sail]

game feels pretty decent now

[silk surge]

I wasn't able to until this patch.

[uncut bay]

wow

[scenic tartan]

voice lines were removed??

[dapper berry]

it seems so

[cerulean token]

very nice

[scenic tartan]

this update is an absolute W

[hollow fossil]

I can't even find a lobby to play on

[scenic tartan]

stinger indicators, no voice lines

[celest sinew]

This is a good step honestly

[silk surge]

Yup, replaced with custom animations like Paik taking her visor off. Im about to post a video of it, just waiting for it to upload.

[marsh helm]

1 gun reskin from portal 1 bow no one would use , helicopter that only 1 player can fly , another flat map , 1 character

[celest sinew]

If they keep this up

[onyx mica]

yea wait for few hours i can't find any as well

[austere owl]

they added a crossbow 😳

[uncut bay]

nice, and new anims to replace them? Actually good stuff

[silk surge]

It's nice that specialist quips are officially removed from the game now. I'm gonna miss dont be sad.

[hollow fossil]

Probably but then again it's not like a lot of people are playing in the middle East since breakthrough and 128 player conquest is dead

[celest sinew]

Yeah I'm gonna try and see the all the new specialist stuff

[onyx mica]

i miss it already

[desert elbow]

You haven't even explored the map yet lmao

[austere owl]

don't be sad, that's just how it works out sometimes

[uncut bay]

bet dice wasn't happy with the wasted money on voice lines but it's good that they're gone

[onyx mica]

i agree

[patent path]

the new backkground is nice, performance is still ass

[ocean isle]

What the spawn beacon is massive

[celest sinew]

Really performance is pretty good for me

[sour meadow]

bruh. a smoke grenade launcher gadget when there's already smoke grenades and smoke grenade launcher ubls

[marsh helm]

DICE:"you GUys are IMportANT To Us"

[craggy sail]

performance good on my end too been hitting steady 120-140 fps

[pine roost]

so the nightbird is broken, but jets have actually been improved!

[onyx mica]

we need more smoke! jk cya

[ocean isle]

Why did that make it big is it because it make a player know where the beacon is so they destroy it

[celest sinew]

Yeah I've had 120+

[sour meadow]

a recycled AS VAL and a crossbow

[silk surge]

Here it is, the new reworked EOR. Here are a few changes:

• Specialist quips are gone from the game now, replaced with custom animations like Paik taking her visor off.
• New sound effects for xp/ribbons
• The game fades to black instead of switching to the victory/defeat screen.

[uncut bay]

dice and ea management: "your wallets are important to us"

[sour meadow]

"MONEY PLEASE"

[craggy sail]

''SirCryAlot

[uncut bay]

impressive, very based

[celest sinew]

That's actually really nice

[sour meadow]

thank god

[sour meadow]

it took like 7 months to add 3 new weapons

[hollow fossil]

Did you have a full lobby?

[silk surge]

Yes. You can see me bringing up the scoreboard in the clip.

[celest sinew]

New UI is nice too

[hollow fossil]

Damn lucky

[celest sinew]

Its small but a nice change

NOOOO I SAW THE NEW HELI CRASH INTO THE ROCKET

[marsh helm]

1 DLC content = 1 year contet for DICE now

[river trench]

So no more "dont be sad this is how it works out sometimes"

[pine roost]

ok, I don't think the vehicle damage thing actually displays the damage you've done

[austere owl]

I would learn how to spell before complaining

[pine roost]

it's just 20 all the time. Can someone else confirm this?

[sour meadow]

i hope y'all got your bug catching nets. we're gonna be busy

[empty jasper]

so bots spawn the new helis, any1 snipe the pilot and steal one? 😄

[sour meadow]

"you can not enter, you have not reached rank 10 in the battle pass"

[hollow fossil]

Why are the vehicle attachments lacking, heli gunners used to have so much shit in bf3 and bf4 but now there's literally nothing

[dim blade]

For every bugfix there shall be 3 new bugs?

[hidden sand]

I'm gonna try shooting out the pilots of the new helis

[dim blade]

i get it, coding 101

[sour meadow]

1 step forwards, 2042 steps backwards

[hidden sand]

If I get gameplay I'll record it

[empty jasper]

idk update seems pretty good

[dusky blade]

Hmm, the new map looks very meh

[sour meadow]

is the map available?

[austere owl]

it was leaked

[dusky blade]

Some people managed to play it

[sour meadow]

i mean it's good that they're actually doing work but still. this long for this amount of content is fucking tragic

[empty jasper]

hope the new helis have TV missiles

[austere owl]

indeed

[dim blade]

especially when you compare what BF4 got in the same timeframe

[dusky blade]

This is live service people

[dim blade]

games as a service, except the service is mad bad

[empty jasper]

went to test new update and insta crashed bruh

[sour meadow]

*excuse to be lazy and release unfinished games early and lie about finishing them later

[dusky blade]

Well isn’t that what live service is? You’re not supposed to be buying the finished game, it’s literally advertised as a buy in for a journey

[marsh helm]

this is a bad live service for example

[sour meadow]

you've been fooled my friend

[dusky blade]

I’m not fooled in the sense I didn’t buy it

[bitter sphinx]

Zero hour, more like zero content

[patent path]

original

[dusky blade]

With live service there’s no longer a standard to meet

[twin fractal]

The ability of the new specialist is basically a TV missile

[empty jasper]

yeah thats why I think new helis might have TV missile too

[dim blade]

you can be live service and still have a decent game.

[dusky blade]

But then if the game is finished at launch, what will they drip feed?

[dim blade]

but thats mostly true on f2p titles

[celest sinew]

The storm on orbital appears to come in a bit smoother

Its not like instant anymore

[dusky blade]

The backbone of life service is drip feeding what should be there on launch months after, that’s how it works

[sour meadow]

what were previously called "expansions"

[dusky blade]

They were forced to put far more work into them because they were paid

[scenic tartan]

The hind is fast as heck now

[celest sinew]

Just got another clip of the AI in the New Attack Heli

[iron valve]

#battlefield-legacy-titles2042 Season 1;

• 1 Specialist
• 2 Helicopters
• 2 Weapons
• 1 Map

Zero Hour needs rebranding to Zero Content.

[dusky blade]

On top of the games price, which was the base finished game

[celest sinew]

Crashed into a building

[dim blade]

COD releases new maps way more often than this and they are free

[dusky blade]

The reason games used to cost full price is because they launched with EVERYTHING

[celest sinew]

How original

[sour meadow]

but most paid live service games aren't finished

[dusky blade]

MW19 launched with 6 maps, a broken horrible side mode, and a lacklustre drip feed after the 5 launch modes

[iron valve]

still better than bf 2042 xd

[dim blade]

what about the ground war maps?

[sour meadow]

everything takes so fucking long now

[dusky blade]

We actually didn’t get more maps. And half were just remakes when in older games remakes for dlc were RARE, and if they came out they were changed significantly

[loud flower]

So after trying out the nightbird and not seeing a single shred of logic in the changes they've made to the helo behavior making it now basically extremely sluggish and unresponsive, I tried out the F-35 and holy shit is it slow
They imposed a fire wait time, you fire a missile, you cannot launch another one before the first one hit
Which is many layers and gradients of stupid because it just gives so much more time to reload the flares making missiles useless now

[dusky blade]

Just chunks of the warzone map, how great, and there was only 2

[dusky blade]

Yeah because the live service depends on giving what should be there on launch, which is why this system is so horrible

[bleak tide]

Everyone is incredibly negative here today

[sour meadow]

welcome to 2042

[bleak tide]

I’ve seen

[loud flower]

Uh no
There was a tad bit more than two

[dusky blade]

How many was there?

[dim blade]

I shall still wait for MW II since MW19 was the first COD i liked in a long time

[sour meadow]

bf fans haven't eaten well since bf1

[pine roost]

The jets have actually been improved oh my word

[dusky blade]

MW19 was the first cod game to actually launch unfinished

[dim blade]

Quarry, airprot, promenade, Farm

probably missing 1 or 2

[dusky blade]

Still all from warzone except 1 🗿

[loud flower]

Because the game was bad on release, they managed to make it playable with Update 4.1 but how did they manage to ruin the game with the prep S1 update is beyond my plane of understanding

[dim blade]

I think its actually from co-op but they share assets from Warzone so does not really matter

[sour meadow]

it's ruined?

[dusky blade]

But it does, because it wasn’t designed for it and just thrown in a rush

And speaking of coop, oh boy

[dim blade]

the ground war variants are changed to suit the more constant action

[bleak tide]

How is it ruined?

[dusky blade]

In what way?

[dim blade]

its not 1:1 with WZ. Minor changes

[cinder belfry]

miss bf 3 era content

[sour meadow]

been watching old bf3 squad up vids

[loud flower]

Basically yes
The vehicles are just pure pain to use now
AI are cracked beyond anything else
I started a solo lobby to check it out, the begginer level AIs took a fat shid on me even though I'd use those lobbies to grind attachments
Insertion beacons are elevated by a tripod making these absolutely gigantic compared to what they've always been and they've got a hitbox which blocks the way when you try to walk on it
And I haven't even fully discovered all the changes, I found all of those out after a fourth of a solo game
@bleak tide

[cinder belfry]

are u na sir?

[sour meadow]

yea why

[dim pumice]

always has been

[bleak tide]

I’m gonna see if any are true

[patent path]

so the game is now bad because you got dunked on by ai

[cinder belfry]

we should squad up sometimes

[sour meadow]

lol

[loud flower]

Bro why would I lie
The beacon is two thirds the size of an operator now

[river elm]

Anyone do YouTube Videos and notice how bad the 2042 Audience is

[celest sinew]

"Wow the AI is competent now,Game Bad"

[cinder belfry]

was just playing that new mode.. ai still shitty

[loud flower]

And whatever control I managed to have on the helos is now ruined
AA Missiles have to be fired once the previous one hit which is just incredibly dumb

[vernal prairie]

How is the performance, any better?

[patent path]

the same

[loud flower]

When it's set to "beginner level" it's not supposed to dome me whenever I peek the top of a hill or a small wall from 40m away

[upbeat sand]

how is the update?

[dim pumice]

skill issue

[loud flower]

I was grinding the attachments and reached I'd say 45% in the process and my job just got that much harder

[sour meadow]

i know a lot of 2042 tubers mostly just make clickbait

[low timber]

Looks like there are new lock-on visuals.

[celest sinew]

Its really good so far

[loud flower]

Absolutely terrible

[sour meadow]

why are you grinding AI

[upbeat sand]

2 compleatly different sides

[loud flower]

Read the first five words again

[sour meadow]

why not just unlock them buy fighting real players

[celest sinew]

Nah man it is actually improved alot of problems,game feels alot more responsive and such overall just feels more fun

[loud flower]

Because it's just that much slower
Do you see me grinding 150+ m kills with the M5 in multiplayer for that one scope ?

[upbeat sand]

i mean since the geekn said no and you said yes

[sour meadow]

...just do better?

150 kills does not take forever

[celest sinew]

Thats like 5 good games

[pine roost]

ooo I think the 25mm now has splash damage

[celest sinew]

Not even, its not that hard

[scenic tartan]

roll sensitivity is increased on the nightbird

[loud flower]

It IS more responsive
BUT
There is so many things wrongs now
Why is the spawn beacon gigantic ?
Why are helos sluggish asf
Why are AA missiles delayed as they are

[pine roost]

and has some broken roll assist thing

[sour meadow]

you don't need to be a twitch streamer with an IV drip of Adderall to be good at the game

[scenic tartan]

what do you mean AA delayed?

[loud flower]

It's not 150 kills
It's 100
But not just regular kills
150+ m kills
As I wrote it in the original message

[naive trellis]

So let me get this straight, you don't feel the game is balanced because you can't turn 20 players into red mist at once with a Nightbird

[next onyx]

Holy I'm getting 10 more frames,.

This is amazing.

[patent path]

lies. Mine stays the same. LIES

[next onyx]

if you need a helicopter to do good that's telling.

[sour meadow]

i wouldn't even bother at that point

[sour meadow]

"aerial ace/winged warrior"

[loud flower]

What
You ever seen the night bird down more than 2 people after they nerfed it the first time ?

[slim quiver]

Heli players flying around the map tearing people apart half the time

[sour meadow]

it's been this way for many games now

[naive trellis]

Believe me I have, I've seen it obliterate entire objectives. If air vehicles finally being balanced near normalcy offends you, idk what to tell ya.

[slim quiver]

Yup so I’m happy if they absolutely dunk on air vehicles

[sour meadow]

i just go Rao and rock stingers

[celest sinew]

"Oh no my only means of doing well has been nerfed"
