I don't wanna make anyone cry
dice's solution to air vehicles being overpowered was basically to remove them from the game
They gotta buff the Jets homing and lock on capabilities
Good solution
I felt bad enough making you cry angel
I want the 30mm to be buffed, it feels like 20mm not 30mm
I hope they have a huge vehicle rebalance and rework for season 2 the game needs it
Can't imagine the amount of tear stains on your sailor moon body pillow
Well it’s week 2 I’m sure they’ll do some this season
If you match up the stains it says "perrinoid 0.80 kd"
I want tv missile for the wildcat tank, as a secondary weapon and make other players cry and give them PTSD
Vehicle rework = remove all weapons from helicopters and give chopper sweats a key to arma so they can ruin that game instead of BF
I Fuck with the choppers man
The main problem with infantry play was bad, open maps and too many boltes
the solution was they removed all the air vehicles and made only one armored vehicle spawn plus give everyone a TV missile that tanks cant do anthing about.. ????
Frankly—and I’m saying this from the perspective of someone who specializes both in repairing vehicles and taking them down... Helicopters (stealth ones aside), having two repair seats isn’t too bad. For one thing, missiles seem to home in on the passenger slots. Passengers that are doing repairing are very prone to getting nailed by missiles, and that’s okay with me. It gives infantry a better shot at shooting down an aircraft, or at least significantly suppressing its ability to function.
This is going to be an unpopular opinion, but infantry doesn’t necessarily always need to be able to destroy a helicopter. What matters is that the helicopter can be suppressed, pushed out of combat, forced to fall back and repair/wait for flares to return. Even with a competent repair team, helicopters will regularly need to leave the combat zone, if they’re faced with an enemy that’s focused on taking them out. I can effectively keep a helicopter out of combat for maybe 30 to 40% of its total flight time, just as a single soldier spamming Stingers. If a second one joins me, particularly one elsewhere in the map, who’s able to keep hitting it when it leaves my effective range, we can consistently kill the helicopter.
That said, we need longer lock-on range. Helicopters shouldn’t be able to sit at high altitude, outside of lock on range, and just have the pilot jump into the nose gunner seat and go to town, swap back, ascend, and continue that loop.
Idk when I play with my buds we farm hinds. Make it a mission
Holy fuck delta
Pardon the text wall.
Reduce the wildcat spawns and add a weapon to every infantry player that can kill them in 4 hits , regens ammo, and works from 500meters away
Holy shit thats a lot of text im not gonna read
that should do it
Mmmmm Italian tonight with that pasta
Hehehe...
specialist gadgets having regen ammo is dumb
Bro
Nah
should have to go to an ammo box
what kind of magical portal is lis pulling rockets out of from her ass every 30 seconds
Good take tho especially the last paragraph
You mean any 30 of the ammo boxes on the ground?
Just play the game you want 2042 to turn into
🥲
that was a good game they should learn from it cause this shit isnt gonna maintain this momentum as is
Very same can be said for choppers
Eh the Battlefield OGs will still play it
i think helis should have to resupply as well
Yes make the hind stronger
And jets
you should resupply by flying over a control point you control and is uncontested
Make their lock on quicker and homing better
Like I said, glad some of yall are on the complaining end rather the dev end
I’ll still play it regardless
**infantry doesn’t necessarily always need to be able to destroy a helicopter. **💯
Thank you!
Damn right
@hexed mango we gotta spend an hour one day and see who gets further on the bingo card
it should take the combined effort of several infantry to kill a heli
there are fewer of them than infantry
Day 936039595 of saying tanks need trophy systems
this too, but it would only stop some of the TV missiles pounding you
So you mean....teamwork
Like how bf is supposed to be played
What a concept
You sure you're not a dev?
yeah imagine not allowing one infantry to have infinite TV missiles that can one shot a heli
So you are gonna sit there
And say lis one shots helicopters

Nice
Tv missile is fun to use, I use it on the boat back in BF4 but I want one in 2042, and give it to the wildcat tank
it does? just not the hind
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q8MgG2woMA0
one shots jets too
I gotta work on my bingo card
i feel like dice will neuter them
Also, scary thought. Can you imagine if bots used stingers, and not just the basic rocket launchers/recoilless?
Idk it's only a matter of time
theyre scarier with the M5 since they jumpscare you by blowing you up
They just learned to revive after 20 seconds
Don't be still
Right? They’re terrifyingly accurate with those things.
Third person as a helo pilot is a harrowing experience, because you get to see just how close the bots come, with so many more shots than you’d otherwise realize were coming at you.
#keepbotsdumb
true
yessir
i see rise in steam playerbase for this game
As a side note, while it is informative, it really gets me when I’m using a Stinger, and my sight tells me that a helicopter is in stealth mode. It’s very useful from a gameplay perspective, but from an in-universe perspective, it makes me want to scream. The sensors on my launcher can detect the helicopter, can track it, can give me information on it, but can’t lock a missile onto what they’re detecting?
Also, if we have functional stealth helicopters, why don’t we have functional stealth jets? No, DICE, that’s not a request to add them!
Since a day or two before season 1
You've been here after that tho...
Time to level this here k30 in a bot game before multiplayer
The stealth mode is a weird idea and i dont like it much
You sick bastards and your k30 drums
especially when the nightbird and attack heli has nothing simliar like ECM jammer
It's pretty nice when ya get a handle on it
Be sneaky
Even the bombs take out jets
Agreed. It just comes across as annoying and cheap. Particularly since it can still engage with the nose gun and bombs in stealth mode.
i havent even got to fly the new stealth heli much i should try it out in solo
If we can’t lock onto it, at least let us dumb-fire our stingers at it?
theyre indeed good
you can pretty much farm everyone just in stealth mode
Yea take new shit to bot games and get the first unlocks
The issue i have now, is whats next

Geez!
My only tier 1 is the m5a3
Is it just me, or is the new suppressed DMR downright comical-looking with a short barrel?
Its not a dmr anymore with a short barrel
Posted that earlier
Nobody cared then nobody cares now
Particularly with an underbarrel attachment, it makes the barrel look so tiny!
Better ways of getting validation
Indeed.
Nobody asked for your opinion though
You asked for everyone's opinion when you posted that
Twice, in less than 12 hours
You have to have atleast a 1kd to voice your opinion
I love how your SVK just...doesn’t have a barrel. It just has a floating suppressor. lol
Yet you don't need a 1.0 to t1 all weapons
Just no life the game
Used it as an smg most of the time

You have to have atleast a 1kd to voice your opinion
You mean the AS Val/VSS Vintorez (whatever the DMR’s name is in this game, which is neither of those)?
The SVK has morphed into an interesting close-quarters weapon for me, though. Extended mag with standard rounds and a short optic, just back to double-tapping everyone like it could at long ranges when it first came out.
The vss is an asval
And the new weapon is just a modern version of both
Indeed. I think the main difference between the Val and the Vintorez is just the stock and barrel length, as I recall. Basically the same thing.
did they nerf the bvsm
Don't think so
K30 is a dirty orphan
Bvs-m > k30 rn
Long range yes
Even with close combat mag
Nah, it's dirty
Both amazing tho
Close range k30 will close
Bs med range can handle it
feels like its worse at range
i had three separate times where i hit someone with about 75% of my close range mag at about 30m and they didn’t die
Guys good morning, I really need your help. Somehow I still got random freezes, gpu and cpu are ok and not at a peak then. I got a 8700K and a 3080gtx, so I should be good right? Hopefully one of you legends can help me out with this random freezes. Thx in advance!
Does it freeze permanently?
Or do they last for a second, then work again?
nope, just for like 2/3 seconds
Does your audio crack too?
and then the movements that I made are still visible really fast...
nope, just total freeze/stutter
You need min. 8 core cpu
I can see why the drum is needed for the k30 lol
I got a 8700K
I had similar issues, i cleared my cache and i havent had it again
It got 6 cores... but 12 logical procs
I've 8700k and I have exact same problem
The 8700k is underpowered for 2042
ok
But try clearing cache
Need all the power you can get
ok will do, thats in documents folder right
Awww yeahhhh
yup. i also have a 3080 but i have a ryzen 5 5600x for the cpu
%programdata% delete everything in the origin folder except "localsomething" (dont remember the name)
Then go into local, delete the origin folder
Then %appdata% delete origin folder
Then reboot
Delete system 32
Reinstall any skill issues as well
what about 3700x
The clip?
No screenshot
Mhhhh repost it.
Finally t1d every weapon
Minimum specs are 3900x
Oof
I was playing with a guy who had a 2060 and a 3600x..
yeah i got a 2070 super with a 3700x but it handles well was jw general opinion
I got 2070s 12600k and it runs solid for me
THx for the help guys!
I run the game on low so it does well
Yeah. I’ve got a 5600x and cpu utilization goes to 75% at the highest it seems for me
If they could change the grenades limit to two like it was at launch, would y'all want it back?
Basically a 3060 with a 3700x.
Actually not a bad combo.
Nice
If dice could revert one change made in 2042, what would you pick? I'd pick 128 bots in portal or 128 breakthrough
uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
battlefield 
probably 128 breakthrough as well
128 breakthrough was so great
Removing angels voicelines
Or removing mackay bhopping
Angel doesn't do it again 😦
Me first
I lost my family but meh I'll get another
Unless....yall are my new family 🥲
yes
Apparently people got mad that they play as the Russian faction in 2042. Is that true?
maybe on twitter but ive never seen anyone upset about that over here
Oh no it's just this dumbass article 
lol whats its link?
Eurogamer. It's them saying how Russian teams were removed from fifa.. so the same should be done with 2042... But.... We play as a faction in WW2. Apparently I can't say the n word......
You shoult try going on a low sodium diet
Seems lime your salt levels are overflowing
Do you guys think the super hind deserves a nerf? Idk what it's like on pc but on ps4 it's so unbelievably broken every game i play gets shit stomped by it. Yet you're allowed 2 at the same time and only 1 little bird. What on earth are they thinking
Hopefully not just me that thinks this
they either need to limit both teams to just 1 or nerf its damage values
So as someone that has used the ground armor. Both tank and.. forgot the name. Yes. Super hind should get nerfed. It's not the armor I have an issue with. It's the guns it has access to.
Lime? Salt? We having tequila friend?
If anything.. ground armor should be buffed instead. It's insanely weak and an easy target for anything that has rockets or explosives.
It's a flying tank that counters literally everything I don't get it
Liz, rocket, air vehicles, super hind, and other ground armor is what I have to worry about.
If that helps you to be a better person, sure why not
I almost killed one in exposure breakthrough but it later started flying right above me and gave me a hard time and killed me all because of their gunner.
It's insanely stupid
If tanks had something like an APS that'd be really helpful.
I have an issue with how they went with the whole. Condor and f12 can hover but the Russian vehicles don't. Causing the f12 to pitch slower which makes the Russian jet the beat
Us jets are worse than Russian jets
And if armour angling was a thing
Plus if the 50mm on the hind wasn't an anti everything it wouldn't be too common.
You'd be dealing with more transports with grenade launchers than a 50MM.
They really shouldn't have given these vehicles access to that 50mm. Even ground vehicles. Did they remove that for the jeep?
No.
Jesus Chris
Armour angling and APS, both are really needed. Tanks also need a lot more varied playstyles that are not just AP, and HMG. That's a bit boring.
It's not a popular option anyways because it's way less powerful than the transports.
the 50mm for jeep is super uncommon for me
It's more for killing infantry in one hit on direct impact.
At first everyone had it
Yeah it's not that strong. The 30mm is a better choice
30mm is still sorta shit.
Only got on the bolt and in the hands of an accurate player.
They need to do something with ground armor. I got lized by 4 of them. All they do is point up and shoot. They just shoot behind a fucking wall
Still though, better than the 50mm due to the rate of fire
50mm doesn't do enough damage in comparison to be worth it imo
It's sorta whatever. Wouldn't mind it if it were a bit better.
i agree
Liz needs a nerf for controlling the rocket. It should be as hard as the TV missile in bf4
Oh yeah I've seen how weird it is.
Were the Battlefield 3 jets slower or were the TV missiles in that game faster? Because I recall being able to run down jets that were flying away with the TV missiles in that game. I suppose the answer to that question might also be a possible solution to TV guided missiles in Battlefield 2042.
If an Australian fires a TGM are the controls inverted?
Wildcat, Mike.
But I use it like a btr
Yeah it's an LAV/AA/Tank destroyer.
Sundances autolock grenades are also a bit ridiculous. No skill weapons like that really shouldn't be in the game imo, like the Sentry and Ranger.
Sundance's grenades barely do any damage unless it's a light vehicle or Bolte
People still complain there's no vehicles lol
mmhh it's whatever.
Yo do you guys get 2 attack helis on pc ?
1
In a vaccum, but she's one of the most common specialist so it really starts to add up.
On portal maps we get two helis.
I love those complaints. That's the best thing you can get to know that they have no clue what they're talking about
With the new vss. You can turn that into a SMG or a dmr correct?
Wildcat is really three vehicles in one slot due to the three different weapons acting very differently
Sorta? You can turn it back into the AS VAL.
Yeah the BSVM can be a good SMG/Carbine
And I love it. Saves space and less problems to code.
You shouldn't be able to just toss a grenade randomly and get free, guaranteed damage. I would be fine with it if they needed to lock on first.
The best config is just to give it a short barrel and hgih power extrended, Turns it into a battle rifle.
I shot down a Stealth Chopper with a 57mm on a Wildcat
I really like the idea they had with all this. Turning one weapon into something else. I can turn my m5a3 into a SMG at that point bu increasing rate of fire and add the 9mm round mag
Sundance's grenade goes really fucking slow, countermeasures work against it too
I think a Wildcat can outrun it
Did they remove a nade from her?
The EMP one
The EMP one, thankfully.
Oh I never even used it lol
The scatter nade is a problem for me
Not in a bad way
EMPs flat out need to go imo. Disabling vehicles entirely outside of movement, especially with how easy it is, is ridiculous honestly.
Lol wait. What?
Yeah, if you use an EMP vehicles can only move. Everything else is disabled.
Oh like hacked
Fucking hell that's dumb. Good thing I never had that happen
I think people would prefer a rocket over an emp
No one really use the EMP grenades, it's either Rao's hack or Casper's drone.
I feel like emp related stuff is prolly on the lower end if you looked at player analytics
How many players using EMP grenade, just to annoy other players?
I have never seen anyone use it, except for a bot which doesn't count
I think the American Recon AI has a chance to use an EMP Grenade, but I don't know for sure.
TBH, I never use EMP grenade because forgot to use them and didn't bother checking my loadout
Just realized Falck with C5 and the emp would be the ultimate vehicle and infantry killer, and ultimate reviver and healer.
Yeah! You can shoot the C5 and it'll count for the Syrette Pistol
DICE better add "Get a Multi-Kill with Falck's Syrette Pistol" as a challenge
I might use EMP grenades, once I manage to see enemy vehicles and I better check my loadouts so I can change my grenades
afaik, EMP Grenades now disable C5
So perhaps a good way to stop people from throwing it at vehicles or some shit.
If you bother to use it of course
I have to wonder though, will it stop a TGM missile?
probably
Supressor,high power ammo, laser and 6x scope
gvt?
gvt?
i haven't played 1000 hours in any game, let alone a game that came out 6 months ago
I think I put 2k into bf1, barely 100 in any bf since though
https://2042.bingo.echology.page/
only took me 5 hours (i made something else to help myself view posted suggestions)
but i added one more block to this, "ahead of schedule"
A Reddit troll's guide to hating on Battlefield 2042, feel free to play along with your friends!
Are you able to deactivate the laser sight?
Or is it always on
It's an underbarrel so I'm curious
honestly no idea i never use it

im getting close ngl
you can, not a ton of point in it other than the very rare situation where it might actually give you away
same with the flashlight although there’s a lot more reason to turn that off
It's not a rare situation in the bunker in Exposure
or in the ship in Discarded
etc.
If I'm around a corner about to gank some nerd, it's pretty bad
But, I am glad to know that it can be deactivated.
I'm assuming this also deactivates the improved hipfire accuracy
but those are also kind of situations where you’d want the hipfire boost lol
i think it’s supposed to yeah
Right, I'd turn it on when I want to actually execute the maneuver around the corner
have never actually tested it, i don’t tend to run hipfire builds really since it’s good enough even with debuffs for my purposes of like ~5m hipfiring
honestly the blinding effect on the flashlight is kinda underrated, i still wouldn’t take it over a grip as my main underbarrel but up close in enclosed spaces it can be pretty disorienting
I like how Sundance and Angel have so many unique voice lines for each other. "I'll get you flying again Sundance >:("
Are there any other operator specific interactions
I don't even know what it looks like because I have never seen it used against me
But I could only imagine it being good if it tinted the person's entire screen
at close range
So I just looked up videos of the flashlight
and the actual visibility it provides is massive, you can see basically anything you point it at
oh yeah i mean that as well
funny that a flashlight makes it easier to see in dark areas

should i buy bf2042
my friend has it and i want to get it to play with him but idk most reviews are negative
So battlefield pc is dead? no effort to give us an actual pc game not an unoptimized console port
on pc no dont buy it
If your friend enjoys it and you share their taste then maybe
people say its really buggy i just want someones opinion on it
Dunno I don't play it 
oh lol
Keep in mind that the game was patched 2 weeks ago
its not as buggy as it used to be
And the vast majority of people who review games don't bother to go back and check if their judgement applies to the current state of the game
but for the first time ever Battlefield on PC is a console port as the game was actually designed for console
so unless you really have a super pc you wont even get 100 fps on low settings
obviously yes
Radeon 5600 is a graphics processor, not a central processor
oh
You can't have a 3080 and a 5600
But for what it's worth, 3080 is more than capable of running this game
you can run it yeah but the cpu will matter to but yeah I doubt youre getting over 100 fps
You can play this game on maxed out settings on a 1080 Ti
the card is amazing but the game just isnt optimized for pc
3080 is way better than 1080 Ti
He will absolutely get over 100 fps with a good processor
It feels like you are heavily exaggerating the game's performance in a negative way
im most likely gonna buy it then
You can though 
I mean...technically speaking, yes
lol
thank you, i really needed and answer from someone with experience playing it
And you can get a 5600 CPU with a 3080 gpu
Try it, it's fun.
Besides, even if performance is your main problem, it's actually the easiest one to deal with. Just make sure to buy the game through Steam and play with the settings. If you can't run it in a satisfactory performance level then just refund it within two hours.
It's both
Performance is not really a big deal anymore because of Steam's refund policy.
lol no this game is literally a console port it is not optimized to run well on pc and the graphics settings have been designed in a way that it runs best on console instead of pc and the graphics setting have little impact on fps because of that
I played for a week at launch and abandoned cus it was bollocks, but I've just returned earlier this week for season 1 and exposure breakthrough is fun af
It either runs well, or it doesn't and you can refund it.
you will have over 60 fps but you wont have the fps you want if you care about that side of things
Something tells me you don't know what a console port is or what graphics settings designed for a console actually look like.
Yeah I didn't play at launch either because the game just didn't seem that interesting, on top of being broken in many technical aspects.
the entire internet is complaining that 2042 doesnt run well on their high end pcs
But after the newest patch I got the vibe that it was a lot better.
So I hopped onboard and haven't regretted since.
bugs wise yeah, did very little for performance
You need to be careful making absolute statements like this because all it takes is one single person's experience to make it untrue.
And it is untrue in my specific case.
I'm always getting over 100 fps and my graphics card is more than 4 years old.
Maxed settings too.
lol if you read that and then take that I am literally including every person on the internet rather than just using that as phrase then...........
All I can play is exposure and exodus in aus
I miss large conquest
So, like I said, you are overstating the technical issues of the game, and calling it a console port like it's inherently a bad thing to port a game to PC to console, means you're discussing this topic purely to send negative vibes.
purely bro
It's not a console port
game was designed for console
now its on pc
it isnt as good as games designed for pc
The performance issues are due to the engine
Yeah, I didn't even mention the fact that a studio as large as Dice absolutely have the resources and manpower to split dev teams across separate platforms.
No it's made for pc frostbite is just a very power heavy engine
ok "glorified console port"
They can afford to do whatever they want.
Anyone else feel like they should bring back all the old fan fav maps from previous games

Portal?
I mean they'll probably add more
over time
They're approaching live-service with full swing now that the technical issues are resolved
We're going to have more balance patches and content updates, etc.
Yeah portal is nice but I like having my exp run normally, kinda like the flashback conquest they got going on rn
You do get full exp in portal
Just not in the server browser
Play the Dice-sanctioned modes
Someone can correct me if necessary
Oh shit, he'll yeah, it would be nice if I could get a match though
it tells you on server browser if your xp will be limited before you join
I wanna max out crossbow
You can reach Mastery 12 purely on bots, playing solo by yourself
crazy how that's a feature and we still can't squad with our friends lol
Going beyond M12 requires online kills though
(Protip: Killing bots online still counts as online kills, so playing during low-traffic hours can help you max out your stuff)
Shiiiit really
this
I average 30 kills in conquest but that's kills and assists not just crossbows, so I can go the solo coop mode for kills until m12
Do we know if assists count as kills towards your weapon's/vehicle's progression?
yeah neither
I'd assume so tho
I remember this channel on release week
You'd send a message and it would already be way up in the chat right after you click send lol
Quick my boss is away taking a coffee, what weapon should i buff and which one should i nerf. First reply wins.
Bsv-m buff k30 nerf
Winner
Add Santa Boris
Thanks bro
at least we got the k30 nerf lol
Obviously i wont necessarily do that in case someone wants to post a cheeky screenshot to reddit but it was fun asking nontheless
Lol ik
More range on crossbow would be nice
Bsv-m is powerful enough as is anyways lol
I'll probs unlock the crossbow today I'm only like 3 dots off bp tier
excited to try it
I'm almost tier 50 BP
They want us to buy battlefield coins to skip tiers
I bought the creeping death pack so they can wait before I buy more tokens
only need to grind out like 40ish levels with xp to max the bp
the rest we can do with challenges
but obvs won't finish it til the final week
50? bah get grinding
😂 no tier skips just from playing.
Boom bow tasty
Moist
U playing on ps3?
😂 just spotted that, so much for "Ultra" setting eh
2042 graphics >>> bf1-5
When ssd breaks
I want melee weapon skins
how would I go about finding that website where all the bugs and fixes that are being worked on are shown?
ive seen screenshots of it on reddit a while ago but i cant remember
perfect thanks bud
2042 should take inspiration from valorant gun skins
Make a PKP skin that turns it into a living tiny t-rex that shoots bullets out its mouth 
I like the new camo designs but I feel like in terms of weapons and variants they could get really creative
ew
I really hope they don't sway too much towards those excessive gun skins that valorant and cod have
I agree kinda I don't want super crazy but something then came reskin
More than camo
Damn autocorrect
and it still drops me bakc to the same shitty map
@cosmic pike what map
renewal
nothing will ever beat the Black Ops 2 camo packs
So true
Renewal is bland as
god I wish I could go back to black ops 2 prime days
I want custom emblems and stuff to make an appearance, like the good old days
k30 and BSM-V def need a nerf (IMO K30 needs to have more spread at mid range and BSM-V damage dropoff should start earlier considering that the single fire mode ROF is high and it only requires 1 headshot and 1 body shot to get a kill with high-power ammo); Also, would be great if travel velocity could be increased for all ammo types of the crossbow (~20% increase). Oh and should firing the crossbow reveal position on minimap??? @ripe hedge
they'll probably pull a foul CoD play and nerf it when season 1 ends
make it OP during the season so people buy the pass + tiers to get it straight away
anyone else STILL getting random crashes becuz of dx12 driver errors
think ive had 1 dx12 crash so far since s1 launch
which happened whilst I was afk in the menu lol
ive had at least 50
since after beta
i stopped playing for a couple months and decided to come back thinking they would have fixed it
which gpu you got?
3080
hmm, drivers updated to latest?
yea
any overclocking/undervolting?
XMP enabled on RAM?
those are about the only things I could think of that may be causing them
there was abit of overclocking
but the issue started happening before i OCed my gpu
what was xmp again i forgot
its a bios setting for your RAM
im not nerd enough to know what it actually does tho lol
i OCed my ram abit as well but as I said all these issues began before I OCed anything
hmm thats strange
my cpu base clock was also OCed from 3.8 to 4.0
do you know the exact error message when you crash?
there are times when it shows the error message
ususally theres a string of text after ThatLooksSomethingLikeThis
then there are times when the entire screen just freezes
after awhile it would just self quit
all i saw from what i rmb were dx12 driver errors
Thanks for the feedback!
I read this as "I OC'd my rabbit"
hyping up your rodent on carrots
Battlefield 1 
id download techpowerup GPUZ and monitor the things on ur gpu
might be some power spiking or overheating maybe idk
idk if it has anything to do with my gpu but my gpu stays around 65 DegC
even when im playing in 4k ultra

watercooled/aio?
only my cpu is watercooled
i live in a tropical country
those temps seem way too low for 4k ultra, especially considering how hot the 30 series cards get
but whenever i play bf i turn on my airconditioning to the coldest so it shouldnt overheat
this is probably why
Since you're interested, my personal opinions regarding weapons:
K30 minor nerf
BSM nerf
M5A3 minor buff
AK24 minor buff
I want to talk about vehicles too but seems like you were only in the mood to discuss weapons
m5a3 and ak24 should be examples of weapon performance
imo they have perfect ttk
maybe m5a3 could get an ever so small nerf
M5 high power should be more viable
nerf m5 close combat
Yes
that I can agree with tbh
This point depends on range in my opinion
In some ranges it feels like the AK24 just takes too many hits to kill which sucks in combination with how severe its recoil is
and that's when it is built for that range
meaning, long barrel with high power
yeah ur right there, the range could be improved a bit I suppose
but isnt that where the DMR's come to play
probably better to use single fire mode at long range
Maybe the base range of the AK24 needs a buff, but honestly I'd like to see weapon attachments themselves get buffed
giving a weapon a Long Barrel should be more impactful
At mid range it still takes between 4-5 shots to kill with AK24 with high power and long barrel
Up close it's way better, like 3 hits
But it's not an SMG
also wish games would stop sanctioning damage stats when you have a supressor attached lol
This makes sense though
I know it's not realistic for a suppressor to reduce damage but in terms of balance it is entirely necessary.
think with high power ammo, it's 6 btk beyond 150 m - good considering its high RoF (single fire mode)
"But it's realistic" is also not a balancing argument.
maybe the range could be nerfed instead of damage
i just like hearing my gun go pew pew pew rather than bam bam bam
this makes more sense
especially the mp9 with supressor 
some suppressors still have full damage though
I don't care about how to make the AK24 work anymore for me anyway, because the SVK has filled that midrange assault niche for me, meanwhile I use the SFAR to meet the medium and close range combination.
That's why I don't like the M5A3.
Because it feels like a close range assault rifle.
It doesn't have multiple ranges of viability.
I love how attentive you are @ripe hedge 
don't use the m5a3 that much... It's so good at close range and burst firing usually works for me at mid range
You're right but.....
AC-42 is way better at both of those ranges and also at burst firing
(With that said, I think the AC-42 is fine personally, no changes necessary for that)
i use the AC42 a lot, it's so good at mid range but other assault guns definitely easier to use, especially at close range
with the ac-42 you have to time your shots perfectly
I agree that there are better Assault choices in close range than AC-42.
M5 especially.
it can be deadly if you are super accurate tho
But the AC-42 is absolutely serviceable at that range with a quick trigger finger.
and the "1200" RoF is misleading, the AC42 is actually the slowest firing AR
I want to try out what the AC-42 would feel like with high power mags and long barrel, but the attachment grind is 
It's probably not misleading, it's just easy to misinterpret. I think the Rate of Fire stat only calculates the time between each shot.
i use high power ammo, extended barrel and bipod to annoy snipers
That means, the delay between bursts is not taken into the ROF calculation.
solo vs bots bro you can get all attachments in like 2 or 3 games
Which is actually a good thing.
that’s just how rare of fire is measured irl anyway
Because stuff like High Power won't affect the burst rate, only the fire rate.
If it does affect the delay between bursts then I don't think that's intentional.
Or at least, it shouldn't work that way.
the 1200 refers to the Burst Rof which is the number of bullets per single burst divided time it takes to fire them
You're right.
But that's just not why I played the game.
how fast does the weapon fire when it’s actually shooting rather than how many rounds can you actually practically fire in a minute
I don't launch the game to do chores against bots.
did some testing, can fire only 480 rounds per minute with the ac42 on burst mode
I get that they want things to make you come back to and grind for.
However, I believe the cosmetics fill that niche.
The hardware attachments are superfluous in the regard of "things to motivate the player"
Tier One is good enough I think. They can add more cosmetics to grind for too.
Grinding for attachments is sussy
At least, to me.
Correct. Exactly 480. We are updating that stat to better reflect this in the near future
However, I will say that having to unlock weapons through levels is fine. That's totally cool and does indeed provide a sense of progression.
noice, thx!
My peeve is purely with working for attachments, not the weapons themselves. I'm fine with having to unlock weapons, for the most part anyway.
Yes, that's what I meant. Thank you 
I should probably put a 10x on my SVK just so I can win more countersniping battles
And then swap back to my 4x for point defense/assault
I need to use the options wheel more
It just feels more intuitive to me to have a single setup and then only occasionally change it
I did the same thing in Crysis 1
Still have to get used to the adaptive quality of weapons in this game
the attachments wheel thing is key for bsvm players tbh
Yes, very versatile gun
Arguably more versatile than M5A3 imo
I think the M5 can support a grenade launcher and the BSM cannot
which is a bonus for the M5
but they are very equal in regards of versatility otherwise
true, im anti noob tube tho lol
some weapons i definitely stick with one loadout for most of the time, some i switch between a lot more dependent on situation
They don't feel like noob tubes in this game to me
I like using it as a sniper, long barrel, 5x scope, high power extended and ether cobra grip or bipod.
The blast radius is fine enough that it requires a good amount of precision
It also requires spacing since it has an arming distance
And I enjoy how versatile it is. Smoke on demand, AOE damage, block off routes with incendiary, etc.
It just doesn't feel noobish to me
give the crossbow equipped with explosive bolts a try, it's essentially a "protube"
I only like the high power extended because that feels most similar to the AS Val in the Stalker games to me
20 round high damage magazine with an AS Val just feels right
Sucks that it takes a lot of kills though
haha I will have a go with that when I unlock it, its next on the BP for me
Man I love talking about this game
Chat, how come sometimes I see Angel with a different face?
It looks like more of a Hispanic face, but I don't see it in his customizations
I like his current face more, I'm just curious where that other one is coming from
The big helmet for anghel in the pass makes him look like Ty Burrell.
buff barrage missile vehicle seat
seems useless
are you sure thats not Rao?
Let me check
similar looking clothing/gear just different face
No, the person had the tier one Angel outfit
and a beanie
but the face was different

oh the one with the bandana and gas mask? red and black one
Anyone else think those weird missile vehicle seats are useless
Not the gas mask, only the combat wear
The missiles are so slow and inaccurate and barely do any damage
I haven't played enough with them to judge
All I know is that the tow missile is the single reason why I feel comfortable using HEAT instead of MPAT, lol
and in the case of the MAV, more explosions are always good
that thing has so many guns
TOW Missile or the flurry?
Did he have a mustache?
Flurry
idk, in CQB they work
For wat
sweeping objectives
Anti infantry?
yeah
Yes.
fire at a door or window and they'll exit quickly
I thought their purpose is anti air
That headgear was a weekly rewards sometime before Season 1 started
Anti air is stuff like 30-50mm cannons, and lock-ons
The bomb flurry is very good tho
maybe it is, but they work better as anti-infantry or anti-vehicle
preach
I see. Weird to make a headgear that completely changes a character's face 
The kinetic grenades are insane on manifest
When enemies are inbetween the crates n shit
The power of facial hair.
I like the mortar pod, 2nd favorite.
Does ton of damage to vehicles as well.
Noted 
best AA is Falck's stim pistol
Best AA is dice removing jets and choppers
they should remove infantry
imagine a 16v16 vehicle gamemode
8 choppers, 8 tanks
or, 8 air vehicles, ygm
So War Thunder.
Wtf is with the bolte 20mm
It’s totally out of place
Nerfed so much that it doesn’t make sense when you compare it to guns on other vehicles lol
Does less damage and has a more frequent cooldown
Like compare it to the 50mm on the hind lol
The gun on the hind is soooo much better
wait if the objective in cannon on orbital is for the US to launch a rocket into space, what happends in story if its destoryed
Jeez, it takes a long time to level in the 70's
It's also a heavily armored transport aircraft
instead of a hit and run bugger
Yeah, they should buff Bolte to it's launch state. It's just not viable to spawn a Bolte anymore because its wasting a heavy armor spawn for your team.
Dozer looks so cool
Exactly lol
It’s been nerfed to redundancy
No point in using it anymore
Every time I'm in an attack heli and see a bolte, all I'm thinking is "oh look, a free vehicle kill". The AV missiles melts boltes before they can even react.
Bolte is and always has been cancer just because of the vehicle design
Forward and reverse both super fast, big gun on top, hard to shoot out the driver
folks, is a melee kill a finishing move or?
Dozer shield, knife kill, finishing move
Those all count as melee kills
I need to try the new helis
I didn’t because of my slow hdd… and my ssd became slow too and doesn’t make a lot of difference
also connection problems
and not having a lot of time to play the game
thanks
Just make sure to stay in stealth mode when engaging. You don't unlock flares right away, and switching to stealth mode doesn't interupt lock-ons.
I haven’t either
Because I haven’t been able to get in one 💀
That's literally a preset in portal
Isn't it?
Vehicle tdm
It was one of the limited time ones I think
It's a preset when you go to create a mode
Oh that
Yeah but good luck finding players
Portal is dead except for the weekly gamemodes
did they change angels resupply to ammo instead of armour?
Because portal is where the server browser is
it has always been ammo
they just removed the armor part of it
Found a bug for the auto shotty where with a drum mag I'll do the regular reload making your hands go through it
oh i never knew 😆
I keep forgetting there's a timer on the challenges for it to reset i thought it was today it resets but resets in 1 day
Turns out makay will say "casper I need an order" seems like makay might say different voice lines depending on the squad leader
just wondering is it all the specialists getting reworked and a makeover in season 2 or is just selected few ?
Where is the live service?
Right there
To people that leave friend requests sitting in their Social menu instead of rejecting them:
What is your thought process behind that decision?
Live service season 1
Week 1 exposure 24/7 added
Week 2 exposure breakthrough added and exodus conquest removed
Week 2 later in the week: exodus conquest added, exposure 24/7 conquest removed
What are those?
Redesigns
Oh like, visual
Mhm
Yeah they looked cool in the dev blog
Yes. Some fella we faced last night went 120-0 before my squad decided to run Rao and stingers. Then he was 120-1. 

Stealth helis need one nerf first
before any additions
before nerfing damage, lock speed, etc.
They need one thing done
which is: If you lock on to the heli when it's in combat mode, the lock on will persist even if it enters stealth mode
This will guarantee that stealth mode cannot be used as an "extra flare"
We don't know about the social menu
Am I missing something here? What do you mean you don't know about it
It is of no importance to the battlefield, and as such we do not burden ourselves with the acknowledgment of its existence
I can’t stand having notification numbers anywhere.
But I know many people who simply don’t care.
It’s really just preference
you ignore it and get used to it lol :D

I can’t. I hate it
I could never leave that much sitting there. When I first got my phone a few years ago. I had thousands of unread emails. I just said “screw that, there’s too many.”
But the number being there drove my bananas. So I had to go through and mark them all as read.
i just bulk delete them
Did anyone read that article about 2042
About like they want 2042 to be a game to be proud of
I’m not excited in the least about their plans tbh
is there something wrong with that?
Like if I need to experience 2042 for the next 3 years
I’d rather get a different BF game in 3 years
What if it keeps on improving ?
I don’t want this to be the BF for the next few years just because it’s a live service game
It would need to do a massive overhaul
The whole specialist system would have to be rebuilt
Maps rebuilt
Three years of the same theme
God shoot me now
Theme is so important to making BF games feel fresh
And this theme for 3 years is just not going to be one I look forward to
I can only hope the game doesn’t get the support that makes them think they can last 3 years
Eventually if the numbers are too low, they won’t be able to feasibly believe continuing is a great idea
Meh I like it, if it keeps on getting better and adding better content, i'm all for it
When new map released people joined now it already lost 5000-6000 players , just a week ago I saw 15000 players on steam
I am only talking about steam here
new map??
They said season 1 got positive feedback
But really the map for great feedback
Everything else people said was lacking
2 weapons and 1 specialist and 1 map
We haven’t really got anything that’s sizeable
map is good as people say
It is
At least now they know what people actually like
Maybe they'll incorporate the same design choices in their other maps
Get to grinding
Personally I'm extremely excited to be playing this game with 3 more years of support.
Thing is
They will never change the core stuff about this game
The core part of what we will I’m almost certain will stay the way it is
Because it would mean they’d need to get all that stuff balanced
1 specialist I’m ok with should of been two maps one release 1st then the second later should of got 4 weapons the two helicopters are ok
You don’t say
And 2 guns was 1 gun and a crossbow
Why everybody's complaining about the next COD price ?
It’s literally like the same price
Every recent game now costs 70 bucks at release
Lemme guess - $60 for last gen, $70 for next gen
Yes that's what I thought, and I don't understand why they are angry like things are like this since PS4 lol
I would say 70 for old gen and 80 for next gen but I can be wrong
If it’s $70 across all generations then it’s a problem
That’s why I said should of been 4 guns
😂😂😂
I don't date 50mm gun mains
I think it’s 90 for supreme ultra deluxe early edition and 70 for normal ultra deluxe edition
70 even for old gen ?
Same
Well I think the 70 is a pre order special
I don’t associate with boys who main helicopters
Ok ok thanks
People could get the game for 50 bucks like 1 week after release in physical edition
What ? Where did you see that ?
There’s no way they’re going to be the top shooter in EU in 3 years
Literally right from an interview with one of the dice executives
Maybe she's talking about being the FPS power-house but with the next BF ?
well then, i guess you're going to have to block me
No
She was talking about the power of live service
And evolving games instead of updating them and moving onto the next one
I mean in 3 years we would have provably gotten a new BF game so why not
Ho
True
In my 57 levels I have under 10 kills in all vehicles and 2 vehicle destroyed
Im a man of infantry
Good
boring
Well if all seasons are like season 1 it won't attract a lot of people and they will just waste resources on the game
Nightbird enjoyers, rise up
sweats in 3.5K P51D kills in BFV
🙌
Also I have like t3 for two helicopters and one jet
Still working on the attack helicopters
You what ? 
Another person blocked
You'll have to block a lot of people then
Imagine blocking people based on how they choose to play battlefield this post was made by vehicle gang
Probably
The only guy here who hates helis as much as you do is Angel Shills again
I want to level up my helis because I saw a really cool player card
Well people usually don’t hate things they can abuse in games
But I will continue my mission in blocking helicopter fliers
i don't even main helis, but when there's one avaliable i'll definitely grab it
same with tanks
I would never want to, so not being able to wouldn’t matter
Well given how hard it is to stay up in the air without
Hack Warning
Lock-On Warning
Appearing every 12 seconds, I imagine the people who managed to stay up longer than a minute are somewhat competent
That is me
Ngl Helis are funny on exposure they go down to b2 i throw a anti armour grenade and they launch flares and run around have the map circle back and the cycle repeats
||Spoilers smh||
What's everyone's infantry kills:vehicle kills ratio? Mine is 8822:288 ~ 30:1
Nah
Are you a helicopter main?
Anti-Personnel Rockets >
Define helicopter main
I can't pilot the attack choppers but I got bo problems with all other helis
Nah, combined vehicle kills only 288
Where can I see my stats please
Ah okay good
If i have a penny every time my screen glitches for Rao hacking i could buy like 2042 copies of 2042

Virgin
https://battlefieldtracker.com
You have to manually calculate the ratio I mentioned tho
I still can't hack people 
Ok thanks
Sorry.
Taking a Lis break and fell back to my buddy Rao this week
Soon I will purge my chat of helicopter mains
If only we can purge the game of helicopter mains
True
🚁 🚫
Using any specialist that is not Angel i just feel usless so i can't use Rao anyways 
I only use paik
I only date Paik mains tbh
Feel the power of Paik
understandable 
Damn
Intellectuals use Casper exclusively
Casper I never killed anyone with
I'm open to Lis mains though
I just spotted with him
Casper SOFLAM players: I wish you all a very nice day
Got 8500 kills with casper lol
I don’t even have 8500 kills
Casper's drone really should have a native method of equipping ammo pouches or med bags instead of only EMP. I would use Casper way more for sure.
Casper is really good 1v1. Drone around a hill and you will always know where to shoot them
and only like 500 kills from all other specialists combined
I agree, we also need different types of drones, like ammo runners or med runners
By drones I meant, ones like Ranger
Anyone here looking to acquaint with a Falck main? 
Agreed..doggy is lonely
Throw box on drone
Casper could have something similar, except he's in manual control of it and it's aerial
Ranger is a beefcake, bullets do nothing to him
It is nice that it's possible, but we mean something that doesn't require a gadget slot
Yep and love the movement sensor - every single person who tried to be sneaky and melee me from behind ended up dead lol
for the 17561 time when angel can again heal robot dog
||wanananananana||
Like how Sundance can use anti armor or area clearing grenades, Casper would be able to use drones that supply meds or ammo, and it would also be cool to have ground-based drones like Ranger who are just ammo or med runners
Upgrading Ranger to have more explosive ammunition would be nice too
or an anti-air version of him
or an ~~anti-~~air version of him
I know I just made a bunch of people mad lolol
Ho do we do ?
what 
Yesterday i tried heli no one spawned on me I was shot at constantly by 2 homing rocketeers and constantly getting rao hacked
C5 Ranger which you can pilot 
or a nightbird that self destructs as soon as you spawn in
Healing Ranger ?
Yes
How can we heal Ranger ?
You just throw the plates to rangers
But after Angel nerf
Which plates


A ranger that can self destruct the same as 3 C 5’s
He doesn't have plates anymore
And that means that he can't heal ranger anymore


A revive drone
And after that almost i almost never see a Angel main
Tape a syringe to drone
I played him 25h, he's basically the specialist I play the most
wait, so i'm in both naughty lists? i main Falck and vehicles

I just love reviving people and see all my buddies running over the fields like bunnies just after getting healed you know
