[tame cobalt]

hope hourglass rework is next in line

[tame cobalt]

#984437616181121064

[restive magnet]

took them 8 months for one map....we'll be lucky to see reworks for all existing maps by this time next year

[tame cobalt]

not all maps need reworks

[restive magnet]

yes they do

[tame cobalt]

lolnah

[fierce sail]

They do

[tame cobalt]

nope.

[restive magnet]

copium

[tame cobalt]

Nah.

[restive magnet]

some are better than others

[tame cobalt]

Either way some maps need it more than others
And hourglass is at the top of the list

[restive magnet]

but they definitely all need rewords. saying otherwise is being disingenuous

[tame cobalt]

Orbital doesn't need a rework at all imo. Can it be improved? Sure, but it's already good.

[fierce sail]

You're on crack

[still tangle]

Y’all I’ve got a 3070 and a 5800H but the game still runs like shit, any idea on what I cld do to fix this

[tame cobalt]

Nope. I just don't suck at having fun on orbital

[fierce sail]

Please go to rehab then post your opinions

[still tangle]

From low to high settings there’s only like a 10 fps difference for me

[fierce sail]

Ask dice to optimise their shit

[tame cobalt]

If you think orbital is bad it's your own fault for playing it in an unfun way

[fierce sail]

Half the map is a field

[hidden sand]

Honestly Hourglass is so far gone from how a map should be I'm clueless as to how they'd fix it

[tame cobalt]

Yeah

[still tangle]

Nothing else?

[fierce sail]

Uninstall?

[still tangle]

Fuck oh well ty anyways

[still vault]

5800H, so a laptop?
I would imagine heat my make the CPU run at low clocks which 2042 don't like

[still tangle]

aah

i figured it was smth like that, the my laptop gets HOT but it still says its like at 50-ish degrees Celsius
do u recommend buying a laptop cooler?

[tame cobalt]

There are so many options for traveling efficiently between the highly enjoyable flags.

[hidden sand]

Orbital kinda sucks on last gen though

[nova mirage]

if i had to guess a cpu bottleneck

[tame cobalt]

Agreed, it's the most fun area of the map imo but somehow it just isn't that fun in that version

[nova mirage]

im running on that exact issue right now at the moment.

though im pretty sure that's the games fault and not my CPU.

[patent path]

How do I post pics, I need to show my dark Boris

[tame cobalt]

I heard orbital cq128 is also the best map for aircraft

imo:

1. Exposure
2. Orbital

overall best cq128 maps

[quasi solstice]

In my opinion, Exposure sucks for cq128

[still tangle]

its fun but a bit too big

its rlly fun 64 players tho, B and C become a meat grinder

[tame cobalt]

3. Discarded
4. Manifest
5. kaleidoscope
6. Renewal
7. Breakashit
8. Hourshit

[quasi solstice]

Exposure is much better when it's cq64

[tame cobalt]

breakaway is at least good in rush

[tame cobalt]

C is still a meat grinder in exposure cq128

[uncut bay]

it's so good, reminds me of metro and locker

[still tangle]

is it? i havent played much cuz it runs at like 40 fps lol

[tame cobalt]

Yup and fort de vaux

[tame cobalt]

bruh
Yeah

[uncut bay]

i like that exposure really makes use of the large map and high player count. There are multiple separate battles going on around the map

[proud gorge]

Being a troll with the G-84 and direct killing people

[nova mirage]

you know what else I would really like is when my frames aren't dropping to 30 kek

One of the final issues for us to fix from last week has now been fixed.

In rare cases, players earning certain Battle Pass ranks did not receive their unlocks. They should now find them available next time they login or play a round.

[dapper summit]

I wonder if that means they fixed the m5a3 wood skin unlock

[errant jetty]

is s1 shit?

[ebon pilot]

no

[errant jetty]

it's worth reinstalling?

[kindred reef]

IMO yeah

[errant jetty]

aight

[kindred reef]

they have fixed a lot of the gameplay, game feels pretty good and the new map has some really awesome spots

[errant jetty]

does it have actual places to cover?

[arctic grove]

Exposure is lagging bugging out on me something serious here, I can't even get into the game!!

[kindred reef]

Yeah, so much better than any other map. There is a lot of options, if you're fighting in the tunnels there are barricades and vehicles to use. If you're on the surface there is a variety of spaces that provide cover too

[errant jetty]

aight, seems cool, i'll give it a try

[clever coyote]

I was so happy to play this game. I waited years for it. When the trailer came out it looked like everything i ever wanted. And then when i bought the game, it's like somebody took a poop on my heart. Not a small poop, but a big amber heard sized poop all over my heart

[rotund kernel]

Feels so bad

Does anyone know when it will be available to play on ea play? not the pro version

[graceful pewter]

So Im playing conquest on battle of the bulge right now. E point is right underneath our base in the same sector. When the other team captured it. Our base disappeared wasn’t available lmao

We captured it and our base is back lol we’re losing it and our base is gone. Wonder what happens when no one is alive and no where to spawn lmao

[errant jetty]

yeah actually i kinda like it. Not perfect, but better by a ton

[tight stump]

Is there a reason why it feels like when I aim at someone on controller i cant move my aim at all lmao

[latent canyon]

Props have the aim snap on turn it off if ya have

[tight stump]

Is that still enabled even with aim assist at 0?

[latent canyon]

Idk for sure but try turning it off and see if it makes a difference

I play with aim assist and had the same issue but when I turned that one of it fixed it for me

[tight stump]

Bc my aim assist is at 0 but didnt even touch snap

Its weird though it isnt an issue with dmrs or snipers even up close

[stark owl]

So condors have resorted to jet ramming the new choppers lol

Legit just happened to me hahaha

[solid imp]

Did fix, it unlocked after a round a little bit ago for me
Along with several other unlocks

[dapper summit]

Nice

That’s one of the skins that actually look good

[maiden jetty]

I would never

Unless i have a retared in my main gunner seat

[wicked minnow]

Even mouse control feels very weird still on certain weapons.

[stark owl]

I have it clipped wish I could upload it here lol

[maiden jetty]

I mean i believe you without the clip

But just bcz 1 condor does it to you in 1 game doesnt mean all condors are trowing the mad kamikaze

[tight stump]

Haha vtol go neeeeeow

[stark owl]

I know I'm just teasing lol. But yeah me and this one random squad mate was just mowing everyone down and they got so salty with the Liz and normal stingers then out of nowhere Condor yeeted right into us lol

[maiden jetty]

😭 😭 😂

You inow your doing good when a condor yeets itself into you

[clever coyote]

I wonder what bf2042 ate...
Cuz it has a lot of poop to deliver on all of us

[maiden jetty]

Hey atleast they fixed like 400 bugs🤷‍♂️

[tight stump]

And made an actually good map

[stark owl]

It scared the shit out of me because I swap between 1st and 3rd person camera when flying and I was shooting someone then swapped to 3rd and I saw it the last second lol

[maiden jetty]

I always fly 3rd in condor no exceptions

[stark owl]

It makes sense for a transport

[tight stump]

Correct opinion

[maiden jetty]

In a attack heli its a different story

[stark owl]

I can see why everyone got salty. The 30MM canon is still broken in the game lol and the fact the new choppers get them like wtf dice XD

[tight stump]

Makes the hind powerful enough to chase down attack helis if the pilot is bad enough lol

[errant jetty]

can you lvl up the battle pass in solo & co-op?

[uncut bay]

no

[maiden jetty]

No breath wasted, simple and clear awnser. Good job

[vivid grove]

What are the good guns after the update?

[uncut bay]

all assault rifles, all smgs, bvm

[maiden jetty]

Crosbow is mid, the bvm is goated

[tame cobalt]

All

[lapis perch]

Yes* you can. The difference is that your possible XP per match has a ceiling in Solo/Coop (~16k I think?), which means you can only earn about 2.5 tokens per match at 6k XP per token.

[tame cobalt]

All the guns are good

That's the point of balance updates

[severe carbon]

The pp is still my favorite

[maiden jetty]

I like the mp9

[carmine dirge]

Are you guys not bored of it yet?

[severe carbon]

bored of what

[carmine dirge]

Battlefield2042

[maiden jetty]

I only play it with my m8 and that quit fun

[severe carbon]

no, it just got an update

[carmine dirge]

What did they add?

[severe carbon]

new map, new specialist, two new guns, and a stealth helicopter

[frosty mural]

Go take a look on YouTube or patch notes..

[lapis perch]

Crossbow is about as good as a crossbow could/should be against opponents with guns. Standard (2x body shot kill) and Bolt Rack (3x body shot kill) ammo are both OHK Headshots at basically any viable distance, and the Explosive Bolt is OHK anywhere, at any distance. Standard and Bolt Rack can penetrate for multiple headshots per bolt if the stars/heads align. Standard/Explosive have a firing cycle of ~2.2s, while Bolt Rack has a firing cycle of ~1.1s (5 in a mag, ~5.5s for a full 5-bolt reload).

[severe carbon]

I was in a round with some dude topping the scoreboard with a crossbow last night, got over 60 kills with it per round

[maiden jetty]

Like i said its mid, not bad not good. Right where all guns should be

[arctic grove]

Crossbow is nutty bro

[severe carbon]

I would call the crossbow not really good, unless you are skilled, its a very high skill weapon

[arctic grove]

Def

Like the throwing knife in bfV

[tame cobalt]

I shoot lis missiles down in tank gunner seat

[severe carbon]

yeah I think thats how it should be, its still fun and a good flex if you can do well with it

[arctic grove]

Is battlefield 2042 going to be free to play?

[hidden sand]

Crossbow really shouldn't have been one of the two weapons in this content drop imo

[arctic grove]

Nop

It should tho like bfV

[tame cobalt]

Lis is pretty good, a bit weaksauce if u aren't skilled with the missile

Hitting aircraft

[arctic grove]

Fax I try to hit helis with lis and holy shit it’s annoying

I’m getting better at it tho

[tame cobalt]

Gotta use the boost

[quasi solstice]

5 more kills.. Then I finally get explosive crossbow bolts

[uncut bay]

mobility is super low, way too easy to dodge

[hidden sand]

I hope we get new tanks in season 2

[tame cobalt]

Press boost

[sleek latch]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/140933721929940992/955382008039763969/2FFB0B14-464B-423C-8726-BBFBA679B8B0.gif

[arctic grove]

Should they buff the turn rate lmao

[quasi solstice]

This is what I've been waiting for..

[uncut bay]

boost makes turning worse, not better

[tame cobalt]

Aim then boost

[hidden sand]

God damnit

[uncut bay]

either tighter turn radius or higher damage would be welcome

[chilly jacinth]

i cant get the boost to work

[tame cobalt]

Or higher skilled lis players

[hidden sand]

Aim then boost, it's very easy to use the TV Missile imo

[arctic grove]

I feel like it should get a small dps buff bc it took two rockets to destroy a LATV-4

[chilly jacinth]

ive clicked like every button and it refuses to boost

[tame cobalt]

Rip

[hidden sand]

It's the sprint button

[tame cobalt]

Seems fine

[arctic grove]

Ehhh I feel like it should one shot jeeps

[uncut bay]

the only issue is that it's very effective against ground vehicles, so buffing it to deal with air would just fuck over tanks, etc. Solution would be to nerf air vehicles but dice seems to not know how

[turbid fossil]

I need help

[tame cobalt]

No

[steady elm]

its already too op, its not class locked so its everywhere, making the game horribly unbalanced

[hidden sand]

Also if the dmg was increased on it tanks would essentially no longer exist in this game.

[lapis perch]

You can use the arrow keys for tighter turning than the mouse offers in Lis' rocket.

[arctic grove]

True

[wise zodiac]

Hello everyone

[hidden sand]

They barely do anyway but that would really kill them.

[wise zodiac]

How are we all doing

[uncut bay]

i'll give that a try

[tame cobalt]

well that's temporary

[steady elm]

class locked loadouts arent happening

[lapis perch]

No. It's specifically the weakest rocket because

• It cannot be interrupted by vehicle countermeasures
• It has technically infinite ammo
• It allows Lis to carry C4/Mines

[tame cobalt]

Correct and that's good. But everyone using lis is temporary.

[arctic grove]

Ok got it

[solid imp]

It can also be shot down

[steady elm]

thats horrible, wtf are you smoking?

[chilly jacinth]

ive shot down so many Lis rockets

[arctic grove]

U don’t see a lot of lis imo

[steady elm]

class locked loadouts make for a good balanced game

[lapis perch]

Also that (and pretty easily too, believe it or not, provided you have enough time to engage it). Infantry can shoot it down easily.

[tame cobalt]

Just not stuck in the past like some people

[solid imp]

Wrong emoji lol oops.. I play Lis a lot I shouldn't be celebrating that 😄

[uncut bay]

wish they'd include assists in lis T1, getting kills is terrible because of how little damage the rockets do and how many people steal kills

[solid imp]

Same as grinding the M5 recoilless tho

[arctic grove]

Should be assists as well as kills

[lapis perch]

It should. If it isn't, that might be unintended (assisting seems to count for every other context)

[uncut bay]

anything that needs you to destroy vehicles should include assists. There are simply too many players in the game

[tame cobalt]

Specialist system is nice from game design aspect (the "character" aspect can go tho, idc bout that)

[solid imp]

If they do change this to include vehicle assists counting as kill I'll be happy but still proud of grinding this the hard way

[arctic grove]

That’ll be a nice flex

[tame cobalt]

But yeah from game design POV I'm very happy with the modernized class system

[solid imp]

already have it 🙂
I celebrated a lot at that moment haha

[steady elm]

stuck in the past = wanting a balanced game.... im sorry, but the overwhelming majority of battlefield fans disagree, its why 2042 has mostly negative reviews and an embarrassingly low player count

[uncut bay]

specialists are not the reason

[tame cobalt]

The overwhelming majority of battlefield fans are stuck in the past.

[steady elm]

lmfao

[uncut bay]

the game would've had much better reception if it wasn't a steaming pile of shit on release, regardless of specialists or other trivial complaints

[weak epoch]

tried the game again they ruined it 10x more 1 attack vehicle per team little bird is "attack" they just gave air players the middle finger gg

[steady elm]

the copium is strong in this one

[tame cobalt]

Cope

[neon iris]

Wah :(

[uncut bay]

you can still get in a heli and go 100-0, but go off

[steady elm]

you seem to be doing that very well. got any spare copium?

[uncut bay]

air players complaining about nerfs will never stop being funny lmao

[weak epoch]

you have to fight 64 players to fly

[arctic grove]

I mean tbh tho I still prefer the four classes over speacialist but I personally don’t have a prob the speacialist remind me of the bfV system but with skins

[neon iris]

This crossbow is amazing

[lapis perch]

I respect the varied opinions, but the truth is that those kinds of stats can't particularly be trusted as objective because a lot of people prefer to bandwagon over forming their own critical opinions. Younger people are also much more impressionable when exposed to the expressions of their peer groups, streamers and content creators, and bandwagon articles that are inherently sensationalist.

[livid tapir]

Gib 1k dollars for free

[lapis perch]

The game's been fun since it launched. Had problems, has been and is being improved. #2042IsntABadGame ™️

[tame cobalt]

Best copium is playing a game i enjoy, like bf 2042

[arctic grove]

Too bad a skeleton crew working on it they prob stressed 24/7

[livid tapir]

Nope

[lapis perch]

Well, it's subjective. So for me, Yep*

[livid tapir]

Why is the Florida man salty?

[steady elm]

its common knowledge that the game horrendously failed expectations, its kinda what happens when you ignore (alienate) the majority of the fanbase.

no, have have plenty of other things to do, im just speaking the truth.

cope harder

[livid tapir]

It's not subjective. If the game is fun or not is subjective, but if it's finished or broken or a bad game is not subjective. It could be fun for you, maybe you like the smell of shit too, but it's broken and "almost bad" (with recent updates improving it)

[ebon pilot]

Lmao

[steady elm]

again, cope harder

[uncut bay]

he said it was fun and you said it wasn't, that was subjective

[steady elm]

lmao, you're kinda sad bro

[livid tapir]

I said nope to the hashtag (I should have cleared it before)

[uncut bay]

fair enough then

[brave merlin]

Are the servers down I can’t find a game with more than 2 ppl

[livid tapir]

Almost

[uncut bay]

depends on your region, crossplay, and time. Could also be a bugged queue, in which case try restarting

[noble moth]

Best allround m5a3 setup?

[livid tapir]

None

[tacit sphinx]

probably something like bcg grip, warhawk compensator, extended mags and a holo sight

[steady elm]

awww, stop flirting with me

[solid imp]

LWG grip, short barrel, and close combat rounds turns it into an smg

[livid tapir]

Best vss setup?

[hidden sand]

Honestly if you need to tell someone they essentially "don't get" how great something is maybe it's not actually that great

[foggy halo]

let the man write his opinion lol
"stop whining!!!" lol

[hidden sand]

Specialist don't work in BF imo, that's not me misunderstanding them I just genuinely think classes work better.

[burnt pasture]

ayeee

[errant jetty]

ehh, what are tokens?

[livid tapir]

Your mum

[errant jetty]

took you 5 fucking minutes to tell that?

[burnt pasture]

what guns are on the good list atm

[errant jetty]

bro you're slow as shit

[livid tapir]

Actually 1 look at time stamps dum

[arctic grove]

Crossbow is pretty good but rq some skill

[ebon pilot]

Good

• M5A3

Bad

• Everything else

Funny

• Crossbow

[burnt pasture]

really not even scarr? or dmrs

[arctic grove]

Ok I like using the SFAR that gun is pretty good

[hidden sand]

The M5A3 long barrel makes the gun useless though which is lame

[livid tapir]

Russian > everything else

[ebon pilot]

Ok fine, the AS VAL is also good

[nova mirage]

can someone help me with 2042 using 100% of my cpu

[burnt pasture]

tht is a good thing

[ebon pilot]

Isn't it supposed to do that?

[burnt pasture]

otherwise ud be bound and lower preformance

[livid tapir]

And gpu usage?

[nova mirage]

roughly 30%

[livid tapir]

Your cpu is bottleneck

[burnt pasture]

bf hits cpu harder its normal

[nova mirage]

i know any idea on how to fix it?

[livid tapir]

Upgrade or overclock, what cpu is it?

[burnt pasture]

you are fine u want it being used dont get trolled

[ebon pilot]

But you definitely want higher GPU usage

[woven acorn]

Exposure map is doing good in terms of the battlefield feel but it highlights the fact that the other maps are missing that team-pushing-on-objectives feel

[nova mirage]

yeah im fine that's why im getting 20 fps

[lapis perch]

My statement was:

The game's been fun since it launched. Had problems, has been and is being improved. #2042IsntABadGame ™️
You responded:
Nope
I responded:
Well, it's subjective. So for me, Yep*

[burnt pasture]

i ur gpu isnt good cant help that thowe

what gpu

[livid tapir]

Get over it, life is too short

[nova mirage]

i7-10750h

[ebon pilot]

huh.

[burnt pasture]

and run native resolution and higher settings it will make ur gpu be used more especially on amd where if not needed it will run lower clocks

[livid tapir]

It's good cpu

[nova mirage]

rtx 2060

[lapis perch]

"tokens" are the increments of XP required to complete a tier of Battlepass. 1 token represents ~6k a varying amount based on what Tier you are* of XP earned. 10 tokens to complete a tier.

[nova mirage]

yeah imo cpu usage should be around 50-60 ish with gpu on 100; but it's not doing that.

[arctic grove]

So 60k xp?

[burnt pasture]

yea im 5700xt 3600 and i get 144 fps plus on medium and my gpu is in ur range ur cpu bound

[ebon pilot]

XP to token changes depending on battle pass level

[lapis perch]

Get over what? This is chat, we're chatting. Discord is on my second monitor, I'm playing 2042 lol

[livid tapir]

You cpu usage is fine, gpu usage is fishy

[nova mirage]

any idea on how to fix it?

[burnt pasture]

1440p what resolution on u on his gpuusage is probly becasuse lower settings or not native reslution set in game

[lapis perch]

Roger, I wasn't sure. I'm at Tier 32, they appear to be ~6k flat at the moment.

[livid tapir]

I guess dice need to optimize gpu usage still

[burnt pasture]

lower in game settings will make ur gpu not run as high clocks in some cases

[nova mirage]

1080p medium settings

[burnt pasture]

whats ur monitors native res?

[nova mirage]

1080p

[burnt pasture]

are u running lower for preformance ok well try high

[livid tapir]

Ah ok. On high setting?

[ebon pilot]

I've had issues in the past with GPU scheduling, but only on menus when I had firefox open in the background

[burnt pasture]

tht gpu can run high for sure and it should make it run higher clocks

[nova mirage]

im going to check again; but i doubt it will change much.

[livid tapir]

Low setting = low work load = low usage

[fast pulsar]

dx12

[nova mirage]

i would overclock but i've got no clue on how

[burnt pasture]

yea why im saying to try higher

[steady elm]

keep in mind the game still has a ram memory leak, it likes to keep previous map data stored for some reason

[livid tapir]

Give me ur gpu ship it to me i will test, trust me bro i will pay 200$

[lapis perch]

There are a myriad of thorough guides available online.

[nova mirage]

👍

[burnt pasture]

oc is like 1 2 precent and wont help usage because if settings to low it wont inc usage in game settings affect usage

[fast pulsar]

Why is my GPU running at 90-100% in the menu?

[nova mirage]

i need your home address personal delivery

[livid tapir]

YES scam target achieved

[uncut bay]

because its being used in its entirety. GPU at 100% is normal

[livid tapir]

Ur menu thicc

[quasi solstice]

I got the explosive crossbow bolts!!! 🎉 🎉

[fast pulsar]

really? fot what? mining ETH?

[uncut bay]

it's just how computers work lol

[nova mirage]

for playing games..

[livid tapir]

Dhaka, Bangladesh

[nova mirage]

👍

[uncut bay]

totally normal, don't stress over it

[fast pulsar]

lmao no its not

[lapis perch]

Chat, what BP Tier are you at, and how much XP is required per token for you? (View token xp in Main/Esc Menu > Battle Pass > Missions)

[arctic grove]

25 but idk

[uncut bay]

if you actually knew how computers work we wouldn't be having this conversation. You want to mald over technology be my guest

[nova mirage]

oh yeah this is bound to end well

[burnt pasture]

true

[quasi solstice]

I'm a certified crossbow main

[burnt pasture]

usage is based on settings and demand oc wont help it rofl just try higher settings if not get a amd ryzen 5000 series

[fast pulsar]

Just start a well-developed game and look at the GPU usage there

[burnt pasture]

5700xt 1440p high same tier as ur 2060 and i get 120 144 fps

ryzen 3600 oced to 4.3

[nova mirage]

alright gents i've tested it and it has no difference if the settings are on high or not

[lapis perch]

[livid tapir]

Play Doom eternal for test

[quasi solstice]

Now I just need to get to 1,200 kills tor the mastery skin

[burnt pasture]

yea ur cpu bound

[nova mirage]

low is 40-60 percent gpu usage; same with high.

[burnt pasture]

trash tier cpu is ur issue cpu feeds gpu

so ur gpu cant be fed effectively

[nova mirage]

i can assure you my cpu isn't trash

[livid tapir]

Ram size?

[lapis perch]

CPU will prove to be the bottleneck for most players, I'd imagine.

[burnt pasture]

based on what u said it is its the issue i0h w.e tiers ram isnt issue its cpu

[nova mirage]

16gb

[uncut bay]

ok

[nova mirage]

i know cpus the issue.

[burnt pasture]

u just said it wasnt it cant be fixed unless u upgrasde why u always purchase parts that wont bottleneck

[nova mirage]

I said my cpu isn't trash, not that it wasn't the issue.

[storm snow]

Dumb question, what CPU/GPU combo for keeping FPS not drop below 100 and without using DLSS on 4k?

[nova mirage]

it is the issue, when I came around to this chat asking for help I said that it was a cpu bottleneck

[fast pulsar]

161 fps in a menu isnt well developed and 82% usage is even better than what we have.. So no need for 95% as you see

[livid tapir]

i7 10th gen doesn't bottleneck 2060

[uncut bay]

the most expensive ones you can buy probably

[burnt pasture]

yea ok well ur stuck until upgrade u cant fix tht issue

[nova mirage]

it runs fine in literally everything else.

would overclocking help? I remember it being mentioned earlier

[burnt pasture]

bf is demanding title on insane engine so why it works like tht

no oc wont do nothing but add possible instability and 5 fps

[storm snow]

5600 something and 3080ti doesn’t give me what I want 😦

[nova mirage]

I can understand the CPU being more demanding but im not sure why my gpu's not good.

[livid tapir]

Maybe dice locked gou usage to accommodate consoles and the pc version is a bad port

[bold steppe]

is persistence error gone?

[burnt pasture]

cpu feeds gpu the frames so if lower tier it has issue

[nova mirage]

getting 30 fps on low and high settings.

[burnt pasture]

and bottlenecks u into lower preformance no matter what u change

[uncut bay]

dude it's the same deal, 80-100% usage is fine, that is literally how your components are meant to be used. There doesn't need to be an intensive scene for your gpu to be at 100%, and the game is apex, one of the most well optimised games someone can play

[livid tapir]

You think an i7 10th gen is not good enough for a 2060 dinosaur?

[bold steppe]

consoles give 60fps atleast for 1/3rd of the price of PC

[livid tapir]

Edit again to 120

[edgy oriole]

Hopefully they dont include last gen in new bf game. Ill die on that hill thinking last gen held pc back to dumpster fire.

[nova mirage]

ok but i dont like playing with a controller lol

[burnt pasture]

2060 is fine with a 3600 range ryzen im on 5700xt which was marketed against it

[bold steppe]

Same, but except fps all other games are better played with controller

[burnt pasture]

im on 1440p pushin more intensive workloads so clocks my gpu max

[nova mirage]

i mean debatable sure but im an fps guy and I do a lot of work on my computer anyways so it just seemed to fit the bill yknow?

[livid tapir]

Is your gpu max power draw locked below 100%?

[nova mirage]

How do I check that?

[white dagger]

You have more helicopters on one 64 player map than on 128 player Hourglass

[livid tapir]

Nvdia settings prolly, I have amd so i m not sure where for nvdia

[white dagger]

Who thought this was a good idea?

[bold steppe]

yeah makes sense, im kind of person who just come from work , crash on sofa and play games with a beer

[signal trout]

man isnt it unfair how i paid for this game, followed the series from bad company, and right now im not even allowed to play multiplayer or get past the connection loading screen

[nova mirage]

Dont think there's any settings for that, for Nvidia.

[bold steppe]

thats just how it works out sometimes

[burnt pasture]

its not fixable bro its gonna be cpu bound u can try ddu driver install and others if u want and power plan on windows

[signal trout]

i was starting to really like battlefield 2042

[burnt pasture]

other than those incase driver corrupt ur stuck until upgrade

[nova mirage]

ima just wait till they fix the game kek

[burnt pasture]

games fine preformance wise for alot of ppl this patch is niceu

[white dagger]

Same happened to me, but then I realized that every map only has 1 heli. How am I supposed to try out the new one?

[nova mirage]

that's good to know, tho my performance was a lot better before, not sure why.

[burnt pasture]

something u tweaked on ur pc then id try fresh driver install with ddu and other stuff

[nova mirage]

definitely didn't tweak my pc in the time space between the play sessions.

[ebon pilot]

co-op single player

[bold steppe]

tbh let alone the lack of content in season 1, the way it was launched with so many issues dont give me any hope that this game will ever be fixed

[livid tapir]

Try deleting 2042

[signal trout]

wont even let me play fucking singleplayer, what the shit man

[nova mirage]

already done that and reinstalled

[livid tapir]

Oof

[civic barn]

lmao thats dumb. How you would cry if windows, vlc or youtube run the gpu at 100% every time - just because you think that's how computers work.

[signal trout]

cannot even customize my inventory or do nothin

[silk surge]

One good game and am immidiately accused of cheating lmao

[livid tapir]

You reinstalled, that's what's causing issues

[nova mirage]

do you think if i reinstalled again it would horse shoe and fix itself lmao

[livid tapir]

No, don't reinstall

[nova mirage]

what then

[lapis perch]

Well for 1, you can probably stop listening to An4rchy, since they're obviously not trying to help you lol.

[nova mirage]

man

[livid tapir]

Touch grass?

Jk

[nova mirage]

i live in a desert; couldn't if i wanted to.

[lapis perch]

Fun fact: The hottest place on earth is in California.

[livid tapir]

I will ship you grass, gib ur address

[signal trout]

fuckin hell why does EA refuse to let me play the game
anyone else have this problem

[edgy oriole]

first game i played roadhog/3rd game of overwatch ever i got called a smurf

[nova mirage]

no

damn shame i actually enjoy 2042 lol; well time to wait for like 4 months and hope the devs fix it or soemthing

[native jacinth]

(in battlefield 2042)

[livid tapir]

Prolly

[nova mirage]

well into the external ssd you go 2042

[bold steppe]

in pretty much every game

[nova mirage]

gonna move bf4 back into my pc

[livid tapir]

Good

[native jacinth]

did you take a break before this update?

[livid tapir]

It will bless you with 300fps

[nova mirage]

yeah why

[native jacinth]

consider wiping your game and shader cache

[bold steppe]

its a mp only game i thought

[native jacinth]

IF you want to play this god awful game that is

[nova mirage]

thank fuck for the external ssd

i would've deleted it otherwise

[native jacinth]

@nova mirage dm me and i'll try to troubleshoot

[dire coral]

You guys should check out the reddit rn this guy posted a analysis on the battle pass’s level system

[signal trout]

you can play in offline with bots
but i cant even fucking do that because the game refuses to work for no reason whatsoever

[bold steppe]

id rather play some other game then wasting time on this one, there are a lot of cool single player games out there

[nova mirage]

wilco, need to pray first.

[bold steppe]

there should have been a campaign atleast

[silk surge]

Smoke + Scatter = Chef's Kiss

[signal trout]

i was on a bf2042 hype

[lapis perch]

<id rather play some other game then wasting time on this one>
<stays here wasting time instead>

[bold steppe]

ive been replaying the last of us 2 lol and waiting for mw2, maybe 2042 gets better until season 2

[edgy oriole]

I usually play 2042 on thursdays then the other days on evil dead the game recently. of course i played 2042 a few more days since the new update tho.

[livid tapir]

Chef's cheese

[bold steppe]

maybe im just chilling right now lol

[livid tapir]

Doom is so anti cheese it doesn't have crouch option

I don't like cheese

Unless it's on my pizza

[civic barn]

Soon we will read that the scatter is op

[livid tapir]

What's the best vss build?

[civic barn]

the M4A5

[livid tapir]

Actually funny

I know the 10 round high dmg mag is good

[civic barn]

Hey Dice: Germany has a new OP tank. Can you implement the "Panther" or is the slot for the one new feature in the next season already taken?

[lapis perch]

Probably basically this: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/651620205562167306/985802897025556500/unknown.png

[livid tapir]

German tanks are tight

[civic barn]

Well, still better than french tanks

[livid tapir]

[gloomy bluff]

hello everyone i have a issue with the game since 1 or 2 days the game just randomly freeze then crash no error message or something like and i can't see the crash report coz they are cripted 🤡

[vestal wing]

Oof

[ripe hedge]

BSV-M my child ❤️

[white dagger]

But it’s lame to fight against AI. I want to learn how to survive with this thing. Survive the missile spam coming from the thousands of people using Lis

[dense hedge]

bro they need to fix flying for this game

[livid tapir]

Reinstall, delete cache, break the ssd, buy new mother board and delete origin

[dense hedge]

I wish nightbirds flight mechanics were like the little bird ones from bf4

[civic barn]

did they change the flight mechanic of the nightbird?

[livid tapir]

You made that? Sick af, want more Kalashnikov

[vestal wing]

Thank you

[ebon pilot]

under barrel shotgun when

no it wouldn't make it overpowered whatever are you talking about?

[livid tapir]

Yes you press up it goes up, you press down it crashes

[ripe hedge]

Well i didnt make it, it was a lot of people (art, animation, tech, etc) i just tuned it a little more "freely" than other weapons

[livid tapir]

osam, never change it pls

[dense hedge]

bro i hope the a10 looks good
hopefully it got that real brrrt sound unlike bf3/4

[civic barn]

Nice to hear that at least someone at dice is working on new weapons

[vestal wing]

[woven acorn]

Do people play much with regular squad members? When I play with randoms we rarely stick together as a squad

[civic barn]

If you have friends, yes

[short forum]

I hope DICE is working on a futuristic version of the A-10 Warthog and the SU-25 Frogfoot, they've been absent from the main game and portal

[wide shore]

Now we just need the beautiful 2 round hyperburst machine. (AN94)

[livid tapir]

I only play with randoms....after I lost my friend in pandemic I can't help but hate world

[woven acorn]

sorry to hear that

[ripe hedge]

The AK in game has a 2 round hyperburst 🙂

[wide shore]

Sometimes. Yes

[woven acorn]

my favourite in bf3

[wide shore]

I know! But it’s not the same

[vestal wing]

Can we get a portable Mini gun turret?

Jk

[livid tapir]

Like a chain gun from doom

[vestal wing]

[woven acorn]

just feel like the original maps especially don't have that tight squad / team gameplay. Everyones a lone wolf. Had some cool fights on exposure just now, always good around C. and on the ship map theres always heavy team action around the main boat

[ripe hedge]

sir this is battlefield

[livid tapir]

Didn't you see rock use the turret in F7

[silk surge]

Would be cool to have it as a Battle pickup though.

[wide shore]

Just look at it. That beautiful crooked mag

[civic barn]

can tanks get reactive armor? they really suffer since the update

[livid tapir]

Reported for pornographic content

[ripe hedge]

CAN they? Sure
WILL they? No idea, i dont work in vehicles

[wide shore]

[vestal wing]

[native jacinth]

default barrel, default mag, no grip (until i get one that increases my accuracy standing still) and a x2.5 magnification sight

[civic barn]

Can you check if the people in the vehicles team are really working?

[native jacinth]

i just hold lmb at mid-long ranges and pull down slightly

[livid tapir]

You want a coffee with that?

[astral zinc]

Cq 128 is empty

[livid tapir]

Sheesh

[wide shore]

On a serious note Alex. Y’all did a great job with the VSS. It’s super versatile and is capable of playing multiple roles. Truly a unique weapon that benefits greatly from the Plus System.

[ebon pilot]

Gonna have to add this to the list of unsolved questions in computer science

[native jacinth]

wish we'd get more of that though 😔

[livid tapir]

Hmm interesting

[arctic grove]

is anyone else getting an error when logging in?

[silk surge]

What are these spawn mechanics??? Enemies kept spawning around me while I was frantically searching for a spawn beacon that didn't exist. Were they spawning on C1 or something?

[wide shore]

I already got almost 800 kills with it. Just a few more

[ebon pilot]

Yes that can happen it's weird

[livid tapir]

Dice pls let us turn off TAA

It's already blurry cos not native res

[ripe hedge]

Do you think its TOO strong, or that OTHER weapons should be stronger to be able to compete with it?
(Not talking versatility here, but raw power, damage, recoil, set time, etc)

[wise zodiac]

Daily Mortar request to @ripe hedge

[arctic grove]

it keeps giving me an error and then I have to review EA terms and accept?

[vestal wing]

@ripe hedge Will you be playing this Friday?

[arctic grove]

and then I get another error and have to accept the terms again

[native jacinth]

you're in their spawn for one of the points yeah

[ripe hedge]

Very likely

[vestal wing]

Ayy

[silk surge]

That spawn point should be blocked if there is an enemy nearby... right?

[native jacinth]

yeah

[silk surge]

Gonna grab me some Alex-7 Dog-tags

[wide shore]

I mean, maybe the barrel lengths should have changes to the overall damage to better compensate for the increase to ROF. As it stands there’s almost no point in using a longer barrel as it still remains a 3 shot kill. Only real benefit of using the long barrel is bullet velocity (I think?)

[ripe hedge]

I will change them to use something generic like "EA" tags and blame OTHER Alex's

[ebon pilot]

Headshots with it are a bit busted considering how little recoil it has. Very easy to use medium range. Maybe the other DMRs should be buffed? Idk. The DMRs are kinda in a weird place. The VSS is literally the best DMR in the game by far, never use anything else for any reason.

[wide shore]

Other than that. I LOVE slow ROF high damage weapons. I used the Chauchat so much in BF1. This gun reminds me of that

[ripe hedge]

But so was the SVK before

[ebon pilot]

Doesn't the SVK have really high recoil though?

[wise zodiac]

Alex is so tired of my shit lol

[ripe hedge]

Not really, but its a gadget and i have little say there 😄

[ebon pilot]

Busted headshots are fine as long as it's not really easy to consistently pull it off I feel without effort. Like the crossbow. Crossbow headshots from 100m away feel earned. VSS kills from headshots don't feel like they require any effort to pull off, it fires so fast with so little recoil with the short barrel it's just normal at this point.

[chilly oak]

Am I the only one with bad performance on exposure

[stark owl]

Imo it’s the K30

Everything else

The amount of times I been able to beam someone long range with the K30 just by tap firing or even small bursts is just stupid

[wide shore]

I love out DPSing the K30 with the VSS short barrel

Speaking of, does the laser do much for the VSS? It has dreadful hipfire

[wise zodiac]

Okay. Machine guns. LMG/MMGs. Let's talk. 🤣

[wide shore]

Yessss

[stark owl]

LCMG to me is better I don't like how the PKP feels

[wide shore]

PKP got nerfed too hard

[edgy oriole]

pkp got what it deserved

[wide shore]

Nooooo

[stark owl]

So wait is the VSS really good once upgraded because so far I find it underwhelming

[wide shore]

It was fine at launch. Should’ve just stayed that way

[edgy oriole]

https://tenor.com/view/trash-know-your-place-rage-gif-15305560

[ebon pilot]

Yes, get all the extended mags

[wide shore]

Once you get the high power extended mag, it’s goated with the sauce

[stark owl]

Oh boy

[wide shore]

I just farmed bots for the 330 kills.

[stark owl]

Time to go bot farming in Songdo again

[next onyx]

Give us ACE Galil!

[wide shore]

Yeah!

[next onyx]

Ace 23 is all I want now!

[stark owl]

MG36

BF3 classic

[arctic grove]

g3

[gleaming oracle]

AN94

[arctic grove]

do you get xp for farming them?

an94 recoil in bf portal is impossible to control

[gleaming oracle]

KH2002

[stark owl]

For attachments yes

[gleaming oracle]

That gun in BF3 was a beast

[arctic grove]

is portal against other players?

[arctic grove]

so was the G3

[stark owl]

Nah we all know the MP5K was the best in BF3 lmfao

[silk surge]

What battlepass tier are yall at? I just reached 40.

[gleaming oracle]

The AN was a headshot machine, far superior to the G3

[hidden sand]

I want the MPX personally, and more tanks

[stark owl]

AEK-971. That is all

[twin pewter]

Feels like the DM-7 gets left in the dust. SVK still the long range choice, VCAR and VSS for short/mid. DM-7 used the be the mid range choice but why use that if you could have a VSS that is much more versatile. 2c from a returning dmr enjoyer.

[gleaming oracle]

That was BF3 version of the K30 spray and pray

[stark owl]

Only true AEK main burst fire lol

[little dust]

@ripe hedge sorry to bother but Lis' launcher reticle color is displaying friendly team color instead of reticle color & you can see the team glowsticks through smoke, would be nice to see fixed.. if you could pass it along, thanks.

[gleaming oracle]

I prefer the burst fire AR

[stark owl]

The AN-94 felt weird in burst fire in BF3 but was better in BF4

[gleaming oracle]

The KH was well underrated that was a M16a3 destroyer

[gleaming oracle]

It was deadly as fuck on metro underground

[twin pewter]

If the DM-7 had reduced recoil akin to the VSS, it'd be my mid/long range choice on larger maps/game modes

[ripe hedge]

Brb folks will answer later , its dinner time

[elder walrus]

I swear the game is soo fking dead I can’t find a single lobby in all mode except 24/7 new map

[warm monolith]

Play exodus conquest

[patent path]

turn on cross play

[elder walrus]

It’s on

[civic barn]

Interesting bug

[hidden sand]

I just wish we had better and more interesting tanks

[slate meadow]

Anybody else experiencing weird graphical changes since the update ? I played first time today after update and everything seems like it's running at 1080p instead of 1440p although it's not

[edgy oriole]

I only have that happen when geforce experience updates and it forces me into 4k even tho i have a 1440 monitor

[hexed mango]

[hexed mango]

its not a bp thing

[maiden chasm]

A slight nerf to its damage would work but its good where its at, right now it looks like it’s on a fine line between op and good

[hexed mango]

ah

[tame cobalt]

Manifest's cq128 meta is so boring

[arctic grove]

Bro thats exactly what im using. with the dino charm

[tame cobalt]

Ignore b and you'll win the match, guaranteed. Zzzzz

[hexed mango]

im not gonna use it

this is what i use

[maiden chasm]

Dino charm valid, but like how do I get that 💀

[hexed mango]

preorder bonus / ultimate thing i think

[maiden chasm]

Oof I was part of that group that refunded the pre order after playing it

[hexed mango]

https://tenor.com/H4F5.gif

[maiden chasm]

And then buying the game again because some people wanted me to hop on it

[hexed mango]

why tf does the T5 picture have an extended mag
and the other doesnt

[maiden chasm]

Muzzles are different too, I think it’s just design choices

[hexed mango]

weird lol

[maiden chasm]

Anyone at dice can give us an update on the map reworks 😩

[hexed mango]

they missed out on giving the ranger more skins

[hexed mango]

they literally said its coming in s2 in the blog post about a month ago

[maiden chasm]

I think they missed out on a lot considering the state of the game 💀

Ranger skins would be nice tho

[buoyant oriole]

how do i add ps5 player to lobby up with

[hexed mango]

idk what it is, but this helmet just looks smooth...

[hexed mango]

add them as a friend based on their ea account connected wtih ps5 account

[buoyant oriole]

from where

[still vault]

[buoyant oriole]

thank you sir

[hexed mango]

why does rao never get any skins

[hard umbra]

Why i dont get BP points for the badge

[hexed mango]

wait... now that i check it.
i also am lacking points

i have 223 on the badge, but i am tier 48, which means i should have atleast 480 points

[hard umbra]

do you bought tiers?

[hexed mango]

nope, all from the infinite/non-clearing xp mission

[hard umbra]

looks like bugs or we i would saya feature

[visual horizon]

alright, that's it, DICE, get these new launchers out of my game so that i can play ground vehicles again

[hexed mango]

i think for some reason maybe the xp challenge doesnt count? idk

[hexed mango]

https://tenor.com/bEZ0L.gif

[quasi solstice]

By far, the most satisfying thing I have done woth the crossbow is hitting a long range shot with the explosive bolts

[visual horizon]

i'm a good tanker, but this is too much

[hexed mango]

https://tenor.com/bzl2J.gif

[native jacinth]

jesus fucking christ

i get a one in a thousand rng roll with a good teammate

then suddenly disconnected, no error message or anything it just throws me back to the main menu

[last swift]

[native jacinth]

also does anyone else have this bug where you fullauto a weapon and it just randomly starts chugging? like the firerate just goes down suddenly or doesn't shoot period

[copper fulcrum]

queueing into a match is like rolling a D20

If you roll a 1, you get instantly full-capped and the match ends faster than your shower

[still vault]

I don't need it

[copper fulcrum]

Why does Falck or Irish never get any skins?

[proud forge]

Hi, is there any feedback regarding helicopters so far?

[last swift]

Why does Angel gets a Casper skin?

[craggy onyx]

Why does casper get a Mackay skin

[tame cobalt]

Based

[ancient lichen]

@native jacinth I do get the bug where the fire rate is weird

[tame cobalt]

Why does mackay get a ghost skin?

[ancient lichen]

I like it

[pine roost]

Maybe it’s a Halloween thing? You got a picture of it?

October is a ways away though. Idk

[ancient lichen]

It’s not Halloween for sure

[last swift]

All-seeing Eyes should be a Casper skin

[woeful remnant]

i think he meant ghost from mw series

[pine roost]

oh, what does that look like?

[frozen adder]

hello
how much BFC in total I can get if I buy the Battle pass?

[copper fulcrum]

I wouldn't really call it a "Ghost" skin tbh.

Ghost has a ski-mask while Mackay's is a thick helmet. btw I have no idea what kinda helmet it is

[brittle forge]

I thinks it’s like 1000 Boins

[wise frost]

its like 1200

[copper fulcrum]

It looks like an Airforce helmet

[brittle forge]

It’s Enough for the next battle pass

[wise frost]

^

[pine roost]

speaking of, isn't there literally a skin that's just a pilot outfit?

[last swift]

his helmet should be a helmet for Falck

[hexed mango]

we talking about this?

[brittle forge]

Casper’s skin is a flight suit and helmet yeah. Ngl it actually goes hard tho

[copper elk]

Pretty sure Ana from Overwatch and Falck are the same person

[copper fulcrum]

South African Jager but cooler looking

[ancient lichen]

https://twitter.com/l0ssy/status/1534279392104529920?s=21&t=G81XNv8X1FD0whdk6L_B2g

[pine roost]

I wondered why we didn't have the character model turn into proper pilots when spawning in aircraft. Of course it was to sell a skin

[copper fulcrum]

Ana's Egyptian though

[last swift]

should be a Sundance helmet

[brittle forge]

Mckay’s a typical Fast Helmet with a ballistic/blast mask

[hexed mango]

cause if you look at it, it looks like a standard military/tactical helmet with a clipped face protector

so i guess it is a mask...

[copper fulcrum]

Except they do though.

[copper elk]

I think you’re thinking of Pharah and Symmetra

[hexed mango]

Symmetra is not from egypt lol

[copper fulcrum]

lmao, right

[hexed mango]

she's 100% indian

[copper elk]

Ok. India

[hexed mango]

Pharah is egyptian tho

[copper elk]

Same difference. Third world country.

[arctic grove]

https://www.reddit.com/r/battlefield2042/comments/val053/only_in_battlefield/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=mweb

[hexed mango]

ayo wtf

[copper elk]

Haha. I’m kidding of course.

[hexed mango]

i mean you're not wrong, but you're wrong

[copper fulcrum]

https://tenor.com/view/spiderman-magic-no-no-sabrina-tv-gif-14293457

[hexed mango]

they are both third world tho, but that's not why its wrong

[copper elk]

It’s weird. I didn’t think Ana was Egyptian, only a base of operations in Egypt. Didn’t she and Soldoer 76 serve together?

[hexed mango]

anyways, if you inspect a skin, and rotate it, you can see training dummies on the exodus... wonder if they will make a training range?

[copper elk]

He’s not Egyptian

[ancient lichen]

A range where you could quickly test your weapons would be cool mw2 is having that added

[hexed mango]

agree

[copper fulcrum]

CoD keeps adding and then removing the practice range from every other game

[hexed mango]

it'd also be cool to be able to walk around on the exodus or smth

[copper fulcrum]

Advanced Warfare had it, Modern Warfare Remastered had it, WWII had it...

[ancient lichen]

Yeah I noticed that

I think it’s so good idea how they’re implementing it now

[copper fulcrum]

Oh yeah lemme get the practice range for 2042

https://bfportal.gg/mods/nonam3s-aim-trainer

[ancient lichen]

True

[copper fulcrum]

Works as a nice substitute

[pine roost]

bf4 had it 👀

[hexed mango]

so this still confuses me
besides the fact that not all of my 481 points have been counted,
there's a 1,150 point requirement for T1, yet the battlepass is 100 tiers, with 10 points per tier, making it only 1000 points total
what are the remaining 150 points for? and what tf will it do if you get them/can you even get them?

[copper fulcrum]

I imagine you'll still get Battle-Pass tokens at max rank

[hexed mango]

yeah but will it just go nowhere cept to this badge?

[copper fulcrum]

https://tenor.com/view/whatever-shrug-love-lucy-okay-idk-gif-16447471

[hexed mango]

cause that's kinda lame
maybe they should give BFC for ever 10 extra tiers you earn

then abuse the f out of it...

[copper fulcrum]

Maybe we can communicate to TotalFPS or PartWelsh about it

[hexed mango]

perhaps

[copper fulcrum]

Not here though most likely, perhaps Twitter.

[hexed mango]

i already asked total about my points not counting on twitter, ill see if he gets back

[native jacinth]

fun fact

i'm tier 21 and i only got 18 points on this badge

[ripe hedge]

No

[next onyx]

Reee!

Haha.

[dusty raptor]

ive been getting persistence errors

hmmm 🤨

[next onyx]

By the way Alex I'm not sure if you've seen what I say but short barrel on the vss makes it way too strong.

[ripe hedge]

What do you feel is missing on the DM7?

[next onyx]

You can use it like a battle rifle.

[ripe hedge]

Copy

[next onyx]

Close combat feels weak too.

[obsidian crown]

Servers down again?

[ripe hedge]

Thanks for the feedback!

[hexed mango]

although as an smg function, cc is prettty good

[copper fulcrum]

I am still hoping we get more color options for everything

Changing red dot sights to green or being able to change the SMART HOLO to something other than Aqua

[next onyx]

5 hit kill with 30+1 rounds doesn't exactly lend itself much.

[copper fulcrum]

Just aim for the head, bro

[next onyx]

If apply that logic to other guns too they still kill quicker.

It helps at certain times but it feels weak.

The best way to use this gun is to shove high powered extended with the short suppressor and you've won the game.

[ripe hedge]

Yes, probably will get tweaked but we don't want to rush into things.

[next onyx]

Yeah fair.

[stark owl]

@ripe hedge So much as I enjoy them on the new choppers but you guys looking into the 30mm canons being way too strong still?

[copper fulcrum]

One thing I'd love is for the different magazine types to say what caliber it's actually firing when selecting it

[next onyx]

Though I'll say this. Short suppressor with higher calibre rounds is the main problem.

[copper elk]

I hate that Daniel Defense calls the DDM4 (DM-7 in BF 2042) an AR-15 rifle. It’s definitely an AR-10 platform that just so happens to also shoot 5.56x45. But nobody uses that. .300 Blackout is the primary round for that.

[next onyx]

With a standard barrel it feels quite well balanced.

[paper totem]

hello
what's the state of the game after the recent updates?

[next onyx]

Much better.

Exposure is fun.

[copper fulcrum]

I just wanna know what Close Combat really is for the weapon I'm firing like PBX-45 or BSVM

[arctic grove]

how do I invite people they don't appear on my social

[paper totem]

did dice announce when will they remake the new maps and which one getting remake?

[next onyx]

Close combat just increases rpm for the PBX while lowering recoil. Changing its range values.

[ripe hedge]

Yes but too early to make a call

[copper fulcrum]

Also when the fuck are we gonna get a Crossbow only mode for Portal? It's perfect for a portal mode lol

[next onyx]

As Val is a 5hk within 30m.

[copper elk]

This. Such as the M5 which is a Sig MCX and chambered for 3 different round sizes

[next onyx]

At least for the m5 it says 9mm conversion with close combat.

[grizzled whale]

@ripe hedge are there any buffs planned for the crossbow?
Its outclassed in every way in any class, its just a novelty weapon at this point

[haughty dagger]

I’m really enjoying the xbow. At 800 kills on it right now. So close to T1 🙂

[copper fulcrum]

You're telling me a Crossbow that fires bolts is worse than a gun that fires bullets?

Color me surprised.

[ripe hedge]

Nothing planned yet, it's been 3 days. Lots of people don't even have it yet

[next onyx]

How long did the xbow's one hit kill with standard last?

[grizzled whale]

I mean as its a primary it should be able to atleast be close

[next onyx]

Those mini bolts are a kill within 7 metres. Feels a bit sad.

[copper fulcrum]

It would be better as a secondary tbh

[next onyx]

Would be even better as a gadget.

[grizzled whale]

the one shot range is too low, reload too long, and explosive damage is wayyy too low

[haughty dagger]

Not really lol. It rewards accurate aim up close but also punishes if you miss.

[ripe hedge]

Not necessarily, I wouldn't expect a shotgun to have a similar performance than an AR

[grizzled whale]

No but both a shotgun and AR are viable as a primary

[next onyx]

Wouldn't mind if for standard bolts it had a 3 round mag.

[copper elk]

AC-42 in Semi Auto > literally all other guns

[grizzled whale]

But the crossbow really isnt

[haughty dagger]

Lol so is the xbow. It’s honestly fine as is. Just can’t go run and gun.

[next onyx]

Xbow was completely different.

It was a gadget and it was much better.

[copper elk]

Bring back the rail gun from BF4

[haughty dagger]

Idk. I think the Xbow is fine as is and that’s with 800+ kills with it.

[next onyx]

You're confusing weapons now.

Bf3 had the xbow. This weapon is the shadowmaster.

[copper elk]

Would be fun to have overpowers weapon pickups with limited ammo like BF4 did

[next onyx]

I wouldn't mind a more lenient 40m ohk range.

[copper fulcrum]

Ghostmaker

[next onyx]

Bah whatever.

[copper fulcrum]

"SHADOWMASTER"

Has anyone found the skull cane btw?

[next onyx]

For the kind of weapon it is, having to reload after each shot you want your round to have some worth.

[haughty dagger]

Yeah I’m referring to the BF2042 Xbow. The Ghostmaker

I think it’s fine in the slot as primary. Definitely takes some getting used to and you can’t use it like a normal gun.

[arctic grove]

can I join a ps5 user if i'm on ps4?

[next onyx]

Explosive is kinda funny.

[ripe hedge]

I love how nobody remembers the name but everyone's like "Yeah dude the Skull Reaper Death Shadow Maker"

[copper fulcrum]

tmw you finally get a direct hit against an infantry as Lis but the mf has armor on

[next onyx]

I don't know why I remember it like that haha.

[haughty dagger]

I messed with it a little. Def helps clear some roof rats at C1 lol.

[next onyx]

They should really re arrange armour to block out environmental and blast damage.

[arctic grove]

you losers answer my question

[next onyx]

That's all you need and of a sudden things aren't so annoying anymore.

[stark owl]

Yikes

[grizzled whale]

what bolts do you use

[ebon pilot]

skill issue

[arctic grove]

^

[copper fulcrum]

no

[wintry sinew]

I am love do a battle in a field

[copper fulcrum]

A PS5 user can launch the PS4 version I believe and he'll join up with PS4 users

[ripe hedge]

Same tbh

[haughty dagger]

Standard bolt I basically ran stock setup on it and just changed the sight to a red dot and that’s it. I use stubby grip

[copper fulcrum]

WHERE IS THIS BTW

[stark owl]

So has Dice abandon the idea of tornado and weather events since this new map has nothing?

[copper fulcrum]

I want this cane

[haughty dagger]

New map exposure C1

[stable shadow]

Guys is it possible to get all Tiers in Battlepass if you play the Missions ? I think that this is a joke. Never. You have to spend money for the shit so that you reach the Tier 100

[copper fulcrum]

NO THE CANE.

[ebon pilot]

there's no weather in canada are you crazy?

[stark owl]

I mean theres snow and igloos

[random crane]

what they should do is an all-water map, like their previous Loading screen had (:

[grizzled whale]

bruh

[random crane]

they could make a very cool naval map, if only..

[grizzled whale]

i just got 3 hitmarkers in a row on the same person with the explosive bolts

[copper fulcrum]

Who has seen this fuckin' cane!?

[haughty dagger]

The missions alone not including any exp gains from games will get you to 60 on the battlepass. It’s really not bad. People freaking out for no reason

[foggy halo]

the map by itself is an event

[random crane]

the map is straight outta James Bond

[stark owl]

I too am a man of culture

[wintry sinew]

👍

[haughty dagger]

Did you get a hit marker as in you tagged them or you hit them with the explosive part. If you hit them and it explodes it’s a 1 shot kill. If you just do explosive dmg it’s a few shots that way

[stable shadow]

Why is it called Battlepass if you can't reach the 100 tier with these missions ? Alone also with normal EXP you do not even get it. That is funny.

[grizzled whale]

i dont really know, im pretty sure it should have been direct impacts

[stark owl]

I mean I rather have a reason to play over time then smash through 100 tiers like nothing then have nothing to do

[jovial nexus]

Man there’s like fuck all to do in this season

[stark owl]

Don't be sad just how it works out sometimes

[jovial nexus]

Lmao

[stable shadow]

Yes, but if I get BattlePass then I don't want to stop at Tier 60 when the season ends. I want to reach all tiers. How long does a season last? Depending on that is then realistic.

[haughty dagger]

Huh? If you play the missions each week you also get exp from the games you play which level it up.

[grizzled whale]

breh

[stable shadow]

Yes but is that enough at all ? Mhh not really

[stark owl]

There is a answer to this. I play alot of Destiny 2 and it's seasons range from 90 days let's say so three months. I don't see a end date with this so I would imagine you can still progress a season even after a new one has started

[haughty dagger]

12 weeks is the season length. You should not be worried about not getting the full 100 tiers if you just play the game. You would have to average 8.5 levels a week

[stark owl]

Where does it show the 12 weeks?

[haughty dagger]

Click on the missions tab

[copper fulcrum]

There he is, the only guy who calls in Rangers in the match

[stark owl]

I'll be honest probably only the amount of missions theres gonna be. I don't think it means get to 100 in 12 weeks or your SOL

[haughty dagger]

I average 20-25k exp a match on conquest. It’s really not hard. I’m not even getting tons of kills either.

[stable shadow]

So i have to reach in 1 week 8.5 Tierlevels ?

to reach the 100.Tier ?

[stark owl]

I'm almost tier 20 and that's without me playing most the weekend.. I'm good

[haughty dagger]

No. Average means you can do more or less but by the end of the season you should at least go for 8.5 levels a week

You can literally get 20 this week and just do the challenges next couple weeks and be fine

[stable shadow]

Im Tierlevel 21 now

[haughty dagger]

Then why are you worried?

[silk jasper]

Week 2 coming out this thursday?

[stable shadow]

because im playing more than 5h

[dreamy panther]

why you worried then? LMAOO

[stable shadow]

what if i havent more time than 5h xD

[tacit sphinx]

especially considering (assuming this week sets a precedent) you can get 55 points ie 5.5 levels just from doing the challenges

[haughty dagger]

Just do some math. Each week missions give 5 levels period.

[stable shadow]

yes

[stark owl]

Man I'm tier 80 in D2 in 3 weeks lmfao but I play that game more sooooooo

[stable shadow]

Bro Destiny 2 is not BF2042 ^^ They have always Missions

[stark owl]

Plus fireteam bonus XP lol

[haughty dagger]

That doesn’t account for any exp gained in games which each level it scales and you get 1 orb so lower levels are quicker to go by.

[stark owl]

Warzone is more of a grind though and that will take the entire season to get 100

[copper fulcrum]

There's 12 fucking weeks and the weekly missions for this one gave 49 tokens

[haughty dagger]

Just play the game normally and do your weekly missions and you’ll hit 100 without paying.

[stark owl]

To this day I have never got to 100 on Warzone

[copper fulcrum]

Good.

[grizzled whale]

look at this sad thing

[stark owl]

But then again it's warzone and I don't wanna commit the sudoku

[grizzled whale]

im actually disgusted

[tacit sphinx]

wasn’t it 55?

[copper fulcrum]

idk

[stark owl]

49

Just added it up

[tacit sphinx]

either way it’s plenty enough that over the season doing the challenges and just playing should quite easily get you to 100

[copper fulcrum]

We also don't know if future weeks will give out more tokens

[lapis perch]

BP is 12 weeks. There is more than enough time to earn all 100 if you play a decent amount and you actually earn points doing more than just fragging :p

[hexed mango]

im already tier 48

[stark owl]

I'm gonna go on a limb and say the bonus mission will give more tokenas

[lilac dust]

I know of people that load up this game purely to play it as a helicopter simulator so this doesn't surprise me 🤣

[lapis perch]

We do, the weekly reset is 2d: 17h: 19m as of this comment.

[stark owl]

Each week anyway

[grizzled whale]

heli sweats should be banned imo

[stark owl]

OI

Lemme enjoy my 30mm while I can in peace dammit lol

[lapis perch]

Each week will have 8 challenges + 1 Bonus Mission

[lilac dust]

I mean to be fair DICE continue to buff infantry the more sweaty they get it seems - e.g - Lis

[hexed mango]

i mean it could be 9, as there is space for 9 and 2 bonus ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[lapis perch]

Lis has the weakest launcher with less followup shots available, and the rocket can be easily shot down by anything that has enough time to do engage it.

[hexed mango]

yeah but the fudging rocket can be controlled. aka making it 10x easier to hit something

[stark owl]

It does like 20 to a tank

[lilac dust]

I don't think Lis on her own is OP at all, but it's just extra damage on top of everything else shooting at helis

[lapis perch]

I'm not speaking against Lis, I love her addition to the roster. Just commenting on why she isn't as OP as people pretend she is.

[stark owl]

Why use Liz when you can just C5 drone

[grizzled whale]

Good, the faster choppers are destroyed the better

[hexed mango]

yeah true
if you want to be a hunter, just take an NTW, shoot at stuff, and then shoot your rockets

[grizzled whale]

otherwise you get more sweats that just sit in a no skill flying tube going 100-0

[stark owl]

Sir...... That's illegal

[grizzled whale]

No, choppers are desgusting

[copper fulcrum]

I mean if the weeks themselves will give more tokens than the week we have now

[stark owl]

Anikin your breaking my heart

[grizzled whale]

i know they are a part of BF, but as sweat in a chopper can annihilate a whole lobby

[hexed mango]

Leir!

[lapis perch]

There will be enough time to earn them all if you're a regular player and you earn good points per match.

[grizzled whale]

if there was a no chopper mode i would 10000% play that to death

[copper fulcrum]

I'm just saying we don't know if Week 12 will give out more tokens compared to Week 1

[frosty mural]

Out of 185 hours of playtime I only have a t1 m5a3 lol

[lapis perch]

I'm just saying the details don't prevent a regular player from achieving Tier 100 by Season's end if they're earning good points per match.

[stark owl]

When a discussion turns into a I'm just saying match

[copper fulcrum]

Let's keep doing this back and forth, it's getting funny

[lapis perch]

Ok, your turn

[hexed mango]

I'm just saying that nobody asked

[river trench]

Hehehehaw

[ripe hedge]

a sweat with a meta gun can do the same

[grizzled whale]

not to a whole lobby though

a chopper can go from one side of the map to the other in seconds, and just annihilate people with little effort

[lapis perch]

Then more people need to attack it. A single Sundance can bait it's countermeasures with her grenade, and any number of people can shoot AA at it.

[haughty dagger]

I mean yeah they can lol. Gun or vehicle a good player will slay an entire lobby

[lapis perch]

If vehicles or aircraft are tearing it up, it's because people are letting them.

[grizzled whale]

its a stealth chopper

[lapis perch]

It can't stealth when it takes damage (damage literally pulls it out of stealth)

[haughty dagger]

Rao can hack it lol

[forest snow]

AOW defiantly needs some legacy weapons soon as which i know are coming but just the waiting part

[lapis perch]

And Rao can hack it, yeah.

[dreamy panther]

i hope they fix the BSV hit reg soon

[grizzled whale]

still cant lock onto it

[forest snow]

ughhh i want more LMGs! 2 is no where near enough

[lapis perch]

If it's flying away to survive, it's also not killing.

[hexed mango]

im pretty sure hacking itt forces it out of stealth

[hidden sand]

Choppers are easy to get rid of in this game. I'll agree with the rocket pods on the littlebird being op, but that's about it. The 2 attack helis are pretty average, minus the bugged 30mms on the stealth helis. Just need to improve your playstyle. I'm not including the transport helis because we all know how broken the 50mms are.

[forest snow]

stealth chopper is easy to counter, I've got games where I been 80-0 only as people either don't know how to counter me or just don't bother with me

credit to DICE with the stealth choppers so far! they seem pretty balanced ( correction im not sure about the flares they have if they should even have them)

[lapis perch]

[dreamy panther]

just played a full match of exposure conquest and my teammate got 2 kills

[lapis perch]

How many points did he have? I've went zero kills and placed #4 on the scoreboard last night :v

[chilly jacinth]

seems like my average squadmate

[grizzled whale]

im talking about the stealth choppers just strafing a random point and oblitterating anyone with the 30mm

[foggy tundra]

alex can we get a 10x scope on vcar?

[hidden sand]

Ah that's fair then. I'm 99% sure that's a bug though and they're not supposed to overheat that slowly.

[dreamy panther]

15 points. 2 kills, 8 deaths

[lapis perch]

Not possible, you get more than 15 for 2 kills 😛

[hidden sand]

Also, I just learned one of the leads of the game said vehicle balancing is in a good place right now... Lol. It was in that twitch video.

[grizzled whale]

honestly i think the crossbow shouldnt have damage dropoff, makes it a lot more viable

[dreamy panther]

2 kills, 8 deaths, 5 assists and 2 caps. he was the match from start to finish. hes S015

[lapis perch]

Maybe he has IBS

[ripe hedge]

Absolutely not

[foggy tundra]

[ripe hedge]

You are getting a very cool one soon tho

[foggy tundra]

fuck ye lets go

[grizzled whale]

alex can we get more visible bolts on the crossbow? its really hard to see where your shot lands

[chilly jacinth]

bolt tracers lets go

[hidden sand]

I wish we could tweak vehicles ourselves in Portal lol

[grizzled whale]

and an actual scope

biggest scope is 4x now i think, need more

[dreamy panther]

alex all i ask is the hit reg on the BSV-M to be fixed so i can annihilate everyone 😭

[lapis perch]

I mean... do we? The boltdrop is pretty thicc past 200m lol

[grizzled whale]

i dont really know, since the bolts are pretty much invisible i got no clue where they land

[dreamy panther]

@grizzled whale what gamemodes you play?

[haughty dagger]

Can we get more skins like the Orion for the M5A3. 👀

[lapis perch]

Example: https://i.imgur.com/03sYDEJ.png

[grizzled whale]

atm only exposure 24/7, cant find any other matches for whatever reason

[ripe hedge]

Sure I'll pass it along

[violet meteor]

Alexa, play Exposure by Battlefield 2042

[hexed mango]

hehehehehehehea

that's not even a lot im kinda sad.

[hidden sand]

Alex, in the latest twitch video Freeman mentioned there would be new BC2 Portal hardware, do you know if it's one or two? It was kinda hard to make out what he said lol.

[hexed mango]

ok i still think something is messed up, cause my thing did go up, but i dont think it went up the right amount, and im still missing a bunch of points...

[arctic lion]

Bruh how are the servers still closing, it's becoming a pisstake can't play a normal game

[dreamy panther]

what battlepass are you?

[hexed mango]

tier 48, premium
= atleast 480 points

[dreamy panther]

im 32 premium and im at 268

[hexed mango]

yeah so there's something bugging out then

[wintry sinew]

when do we get cooking minigame

[hidden stream]

Best way to farm kills?

[hexed mango]

bsv

[hidden stream]

which is?

[hexed mango]

the gun

[dreamy panther]

bsv highpower rounds.

[hidden stream]

No i mean like a way to farm kills for it

[hexed mango]

kill people.

[grizzled whale]

click on lots of heads

[dreamy panther]

shoot your gun

[hidden stream]

whats the best and fastest way to do it

[hexed mango]

click on more than 1 head at a time

[grizzled whale]

by quickly clicking on heads

[hidden stream]

what if i miss

[hexed mango]

then dont.

[hidden stream]

what if i find no enemies

[grizzled whale]

find them

[hexed mango]

then find them

[hidden stream]

what if the enemy is inside an armored bulletproof veichle

[grizzled whale]

then kill them

[hidden stream]

what if he's coming at me at a speed of 200km/h

[grizzled whale]

you kill them

[hidden stream]

how
