"Something need doing? Work work."

[vocal adder]

😂

[lament plank]

so....normal conquest....just with no ground vehicles...lol

[vocal adder]

Guess you know i'm a wow player then haha

[river sequoia]

Is week 3 out? When is it normally "new week" in BF2042?

[vocal adder]

yeah week 3 is out mate

[river sequoia]

Thanks

[vocal adder]

i'm guessing its every Thursday is the reset which is odd tbh

dozer store bundle ak skin is really nice

[neon crest]

I thought that was warzone for a moment.

[obsidian elk]

@ devs, I can see now that BF2042 is finally in full content swing.

Having new cosmetics to look forward to every single week is wild to me. This is my first truly triple A live service game. I come from games like League of Legends and Halo so I'm really not used to seeing new stuff so often. I'm really enjoying it.

I also feel blessed that there are two gothic looking bundles (Mackay's and Dozer's) - as a goth guy I'm quite enjoying the representation.

I am very much looking forward to the future of Battlefield 2042 now that content is finally in full swing. I would love to see new weapons and maps especially, as well as balancing being done (there are some egregious outliers in the game right now, like helicopter's 50mm)

Thank you Dice, it feels really good to play a properly-supported triple A live service game with new cosmetic content on a weekly basis. Even in League of Legends it takes over two weeks just for a single bundle of skins to be available for purchase.

So you guys are doing great on the paid content, now let's get some more weapons and maps in the game too~ and balance patches on a regular basis would also be nice!

[sweet barn]

[vocal adder]

The game is coming along nicely now tbh

[neon crest]

I don't play league of legends or battlefield 2042 but league has been out for a very long time. A good way to get people into 2042 or to keep players excited would be to release new cosmetic on a weekly basis.

[obsidian elk]

You do have a point!

[vocal adder]

i've already brought 2 bundles haha

[sweet barn]

whats the point of buying skins, you don't see them while playing, no one else gives a fuck or pays attention when there are 127 others peeps running around

[neon crest]

money

[restive magnet]

cant find a game right now for the life of me. everything is like 10/32 to start but never gets people

[wise zodiac]

Warcraft is life. Played it religiously as a kid.

[jaunty fjord]

Will dice really keep updating Battlefield 2042 for 3 years?

[dull carbon]

No

[obsidian elk]

I think they're pretty

[jaunty fjord]

2042 still more things need to fix and change

[jaunty fjord]

Because the ea executives want them to be another Apexfield

[neon crest]

They release a game every three years

[vocal adder]

Battlefield V had skins what's the difference ?

[jaunty fjord]

so next is 2043?

[neon crest]

Shit hahaha, wouldn't surprise me

[sweet barn]

i am not asking why they exist, i am asking why would you even buy them since its a first person game and you dont see your character

[jaunty fjord]

we have to do a hard decision for 2042

stop dev for next battlefield

[chilly jacinth]

to show people you spent money on the game

[neon crest]

I can't remember the last time i spent money for in game content, has had to been 5 or so years now.

[obsidian elk]

I mean, at the rate they're currently going, it would be 2045

[jaunty fjord]

I prefer to return to the dlc membership mode of Battlefield 3-Battlefield 1

[mossy badge]

halo and league not call of duty

[jaunty fjord]

at least they can finish their promise in dlc

[vocal adder]

I would like it also but it splits the playerbase like fuck

[royal trail]

played more than 10 games since exposure 24/7 was removed and i havent got to play that map ever since

rip

[jaunty fjord]

But if you want to sell bp and skins like 2042 is not the way, they can stop updating at any time

To be honest, these few months of the 2042 preseason have been really tough.

[lament plank]

wow i sure love popping flares, and still having 2 missiles hit me. wow what great programming.

[tacit sphinx]

pretty sure flares break the lock on but the missile will still continue in a straight line lol

if you don’t move or flare at the last possible moment it’s gonna hit you

[arctic grove]

From what I've seen the missile will just randomly veer off in a certain direction

It's why sometimes it will still hit if you pop flares

[lament plank]

lol im obviously moving, and no, the missiles do not go in a straight line, as i had one curve around a building to hit me today too

[tacit sphinx]

it seems to be kinda random, sometimes it does that, sometimes it just cuts the lock

[jaunty fjord]

Vehicles starting too slowly are most of the reason for this

[low timber]

Somehow yesterday when I logged out the pass points xp requirement was 8 750xp, today when I logged on it was 9 750xp

[solid imp]

Here's what I really hope they do:
Since 2042 is supposed to be like the gateway era to the post-fallout future of 2142, Season 4 of 2042 should introduce the first rudimentary mechs to the game.

[serene pawn]

I can't find a single match on PS5 in South America

GG

[obsidian elk]

That would be a cute tie-in to 2142, yeah.

[low timber]

Well BF4 also had mechs, but they were just some skeletons in a factory.

[tacit sphinx]

idk if 2142 is canon in 2042’s universe, i know it follows on from bf4 and the early mechs are there in the last stand(?) dlc but it could be like a timeline thing where that’s a different future

[solid imp]

Fair point... forgot about that entirely.... there is a mech factory

[tacit sphinx]

there’s also some stuff about someone saying last stand isn’t canon to 2042, but idk if that was actually from an authoritative source or just someone speculating

[low timber]

Giants of Karelia

[solid imp]

Sounds like that Halo dude has some narrative building work to do 🙂

[low timber]

It was also a prototype map, they tried some new clouds there.

[solid imp]

I please just want everyone to be done with the multiverse obsessions and tossing off loose timelines in every direction for all shows, games, etc

[low timber]

It was made so that planes fight above clouds to dog fight and after getting air superiority they’d dive under the clouds to support ground forces.

[wise zodiac]

Hi!

[elder ibex]

so question. is there a reason we dont have player ping on the scoreboard yet ?

[vocal adder]

guys just wondering can you level up some specialists in bots or no ?

i know you can do weapons to a certain point

[low timber]

Every mastery can be done to mastery tier 12 in solos

Weapons, specialists, vehicle and gadgets

[solid imp]

I think ping is there? It was on the old version even pre-scoreboard

[elder ibex]

odd dont see it

[tacit sphinx]

you can see your own connection, not other people’s

[patent path]

I need 5k xp for one bp point now 😦

[tacit sphinx]

i think it does end up being a thing people point at when they die though lol

“no it can’t be that he just had a better position and shot first, looks he’s got 102 ping”

[vocal adder]

Oh really ?

[solid imp]

I mean... that's fundamental gamer nature for a long time now
"I died, omg ping", or...
"I died, thanks DICE", or.... 😄

[elder ibex]

sigh.... i wish i had the option to turn on a mode so i couldnt see player names and they would just be named something like player and a number

[solid imp]

When was the last time you heard a streamer admit they simply got schooled by someone else?

[patent path]

gamers are literally the worst

[wise zodiac]

Agreed

[tacit sphinx]

guys it’s not coincidence i got stream sniped

[patent path]

lvnkmark, tarkov streamer usually admits to being outplayed but his viewers keep dogging on him for being salty

[solid imp]

That's refreshing actually

[arctic grove]

why you remind me a post of someone angy because someone considered the game good

[patent path]

yeah, 1 out of 10 deaths he would call cheat, reddit then go on a raving rant about how he's the most toxic streamer lmao

[solid imp]

Yeah I could do with some lower sodium streamers overall but actually admitting when you get outplayed is rare

[elder ibex]

yaaa well you try playing at 5 am on NA WEST uselessly all high ping players from other countries... oh well im complaining whatever.

[wise zodiac]

I do that frequently. I just don't stream.

I probably should start lmao

[patent path]

you could watch aquafps, he's unsalted, like he's so bad at any game he plays he can't be salty lol

[solid imp]

😄

[arctic grove]

Oh God

[wise zodiac]

I thought about buying Elden Ring & streaming it. I hate Souls type games

[arctic grove]

The new weekly mission

Now everyone will want to destroy a helicopter

[solid imp]

Everyone already does 😄 😄

[arctic grove]

Rao will be the Meta this week

[solid imp]

Heyyyy.... don't hate on my buddy Rao. If I absolutely had to pick a main he just might be it. I have 7 of them tiered up but that guy is incredible.

[jaunty fjord]

Can 2042 move the sideways aiming and crouching of Battlefield 5 over here?

[tacit sphinx]

rao is neat honestly

people overlook him

[wise zodiac]

That's a mechanics thing, so probably not.

[uncut bay]

how's matchmaking after the weekly update?

[arctic grove]

i don't hate rao, but rao now will dominate the world

[solid imp]

Rao for president

[arctic grove]

[arctic grove]

of all countries

[jaunty fjord]

sad

[tacit sphinx]

tbf i got him to t1 before they changed his passive, and i didn’t really use the hacking on anything but vehicles just used the SOFLAM and sat in vantage points with a sniper and proxy sensors

spot the entire enemy team, kill a few, get some spot assists, repeat

my soflam is also t1 now

[solid imp]

There needs to be like a #flair-brags or something here... I want to post my tiered stuff somewhere heh

[next onyx]

I used Rao when his hacking gadget was stealth buffed.

Just cheesed his tier 1 with proxy balls.

[solid imp]

before proxy was nerfed agreed

[next onyx]

But also hacked the common transport vehicles.

[obsidian elk]

Guys what are the meta attachments on the k30?

[next onyx]

Oh nah this was post.

[obsidian elk]

To reduce recoil

[next onyx]

Just use Arcom.

[hollow fossil]

Does the featured rush experience not count towards the BP mission?

[next onyx]

Barely any vertical recoil anyways.

It should, J.

[arctic grove]

Sundance best

[hollow fossil]

Idk it didn't count for me twice

[next onyx]

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FV75s-YXwAAQeX5?format=jpg&name=4096x4096

YOOOO.

[wise zodiac]

I can't wait until my PC is done

[next onyx]

ATLAS Dozer is now out.

[solid imp]

Man the old times.... le sad.
Paik: Kaleidoscope BT 128, sit outside the A1 skyscraper and keep scanning through the walls. Farm your Tier 1
Rao: Orbital BT 64, sit on the top of the A1 building and toss 2x proxies down both sides of the building simultaneously and scan literally everywhere at once
Casper: Any map, drone. Always lol.

[wise zodiac]

Okay that looks dope

[next onyx]

This is why I call it the Atlas Dozer lol.

Cause literally same idea.

[wise zodiac]

Looks dope.

[next onyx]

It's a scary mech.

It's very well known for being the most armoured and versatile assault mech.

[vocal adder]

i absolutely love this skin but you can't put any other helmets on it i really wanted to blizzard bandit on it

[jaunty fjord]

I think dice should move the A car in Battlefield 4 to 2042 instead of just using wildcat for AA

Change the 50mm cannon of the transport helicopter to something else, and strengthen the ground vehicle to almost save the balance of the vehicle.

[solid imp]

+1
Also expand out the transport capacity of the transport helis so it could carry another 4-6 soldiers who wouldn't have windows or doors or anything, just purely getting lifted from place to place

lots of wasted space in the tail end of those things to be called transports

[jaunty fjord]

true dud

The current transport helicopter is simply an enlarged version of the super-armed helicopter.

[solid imp]

Agreed and it would be nice to see them turned into more of a pure transport role and those miniguns will still shred other aircraft just fine. Losing the 50mm will mean they can't counter infantry so I could see them needing to reduce the flare cooldown or up-armor them even more. They would be floating AA+spawn point and losing the bombardment capability so I could see making them even tankier.

[dense hound]

what's the highest zoom magnification without this having this stupid light reflect effect ?

[royal trail]

exposure conquest 24/7 is back, nice

[solid imp]

Depends... iirc the 5x that ships with the BSV can be unlocked for some other weapons also and doesn't have the glint at all but if you throw a 4x on any sniper it has a the glint I think?

[zealous patio]

So we have rush mission but we dont have rush mode atm does breakthrough counts ?

[solid imp]

Portal

[dense hound]

x4 doesn't have it

so you think x5 doesn't have it either ?

[zealous patio]

There isnt offical rush mode in portal too

Does custom lobbies counts ?

[solid imp]

I just played a round a moment ago, it's Rush Infantry or such

Full XP

[zealous patio]

I'll check it out in 10 min thanks

[honest comet]

pretty cool i must say

[craggy onyx]

Is there any skin that works with blizzard bandit?

[zealous patio]

But if i remember correctly i just saw flashback cq , tdm , air cavalry

[vocal adder]

probably the new one but you can't mix and match

[solid imp]

Yeah was watching one of TheCadWoman's videos she was going through the new 5x on the BSV-M and which weapons can unlock it. Was saying it has no scope glint but I haven't confirmed myself, I don't use DMRs/snipers much

[vocal adder]

i think that helm would of suited Falck more then dozer tbh

[low timber]

Me and Waygyanba tested it in Portal, no glint

[honest comet]

flashback is super fun

[honest comet]

falck just looks lame, theres no help to her lol

[dense hound]

ok thanks

[zealous patio]

Thank you!

[dapper berry]

that's busted

[marble wing]

Is the Year 1 pass the only way to get the skins ”Blistered Earth”, ”Tempest”, and ”Cold Blood”?

[low timber]

Also the 5x can be unlocked in all DMRs unlike she said in her video, the 5x is just off screen on the DM7 as that gun has the most sights.

[naive sandal]

@solid imp
Might be rifle-specific
As far as I know, 4x and higher magnification scopes have glint on snipers

On assault rifles, 4x doesn't. Curious about new x5 pso-1m3 scope - we can check on portal if you want

[solid imp]

It definitely does depend on which weapon class has mounted the 4x

[dense hound]

sure we can check, but I haven't unlocked it yet

[solid imp]

That's a 4x

[dense hound]

actually, maybe on the new weapon ?

[low timber]

Me and Way tested the 5x on the NTW-50 and DXR-1

No glint

[grizzled whale]

i love the 4x

but i hate the reticle

[naive sandal]

I have unlocked it on the ac42

[vocal adder]

But why make a battle pass helmet and have no combat uniform that goes with it i'm just confused by this

[obsidian elk]

Chat, what's better for the Wildcat if you want to use it for Anti-Air, the dual 30mms or the single 50mm?

[low timber]

There really should be in the sights pros and cons list the

• lens glint

[solid imp]

It won't have glint on the AC-42 but it will have glint if you mount the 4x on a DMR or sniper

[dense hound]

wait so x4 has glint ?

[solid imp]

Yes and No 🙂

[dense hound]

uhhh

why the hell tho

[obsidian elk]

I don't think the 4x glints on my SVK

[naive sandal]

On assault, no. But on snipers and DMR s, yes

[solid imp]

Mods don't hate on me but this vid explains it really well: https://youtu.be/A_-NqkhRXmQ

[naive sandal]

Yeah nice video

[dense hound]

I'll watch that

[naive sandal]

We can still do some testing on portal when you're free, just pm

[sweet barn]

i dont get these boomers wanting to play generic soldier grunts in the game

[solid imp]

Can of worms... now opened. Go.

[sweet barn]

[vocal adder]

they look good

[marble wing]

Is the Year 1 Pass the only way to get the skins ”Blistered Earth”, ”Tempest”, and ”Cold Blood”?

[obsidian elk]

I would rather be able to customize specialists into looking like the cool troopers.

That way they still get to keep their novelty while being customizable.

[dense hound]

this glare effect on scopes comes from sunlight, right ?

[sweet barn]

[cosmic trout]

Bro, I got tea-bagged by a tier 1 sun dance with a tier 1 K30 like your not good bro

[solid imp]

in RL... in the game it's more to do with how directly they're looking in your direction.
Would be brilliant if lens flare simply wasn't a thing during the thunderstorms, tornados, and sandstorms.

[obsidian elk]

This video doesn't say anything regarding the 5x scope for the dmr

[cosmic trout]

This was after I wiped an entire objective and she just glided in and shot me with her k30 and then teabagged

[obsidian elk]

The chart he showed at the end only says 4x and 6x

[solid imp]

That's newer than the video... for that one look up TheCadWoman "9 Things you didn’t know you can do in Season 1 of Battlefield 2042!"
I don't want to keep posting video links here.. I like being liked by the mods 😄
Approx 1:10 in the video

[chilly jacinth]

sucks to suck

[cosmic trout]

Ok buddy

[calm bison]

https://youtu.be/F_ZvIt27-W4

This video is the epitome of “if you can’t beat them, join them”

[cunning breach]

ok buddy pigman

[tame cobalt]

Pfp checks out

[hazy sun]

"ending for good" followed by, im doing it until they nerf it

[uncut bay]

god getting this air vehicle kill is going to be so cancer

[tame cobalt]

Put <> around link

If u don't wanna embed

[solid imp]

hey look at that.. you just learned me something today, thank you.

[silk surge]

This is why I main Mackay.

[uncut bay]

love that i hacked a condor, allowing like 5 people to fire on it and only got a spot assist in return

[calm bison]

Just be faster than everyone else

[obsidian elk]

You also get vehicle destruction assist I think

could be wrong

[cunning breach]

i was today years old when i learned that batrlefield

[obsidian elk]

Son go home, you are drunk

[uncut bay]

well i was meant to get it, yeah

[arctic grove]

angel does it again

[grizzled whale]

did he?

[hidden sand]

Ooh, sorry, I'm just as shocked as you

[edgy oriole]

Why are they making weekly missions easier and easier

[tacit sorrel]

Dies of cringe 😆

[hidden sand]

I'm fine with them being easier personally

It's already a grind to get enough xp

[tacit sorrel]

Why wouldn’t they be easy it’s a battle pass…

[edgy oriole]

I've been doing weeklies in 1 game for months now ig I'll do it in 2 games this time bc it's gonna force me to play rush

[hidden sand]

I'm at a 6,450 XP requirement, right now. Giving me about 4 points per match. Super slow.

I wish they'd reset it each week.

[tacit sorrel]

What the xp one?

[copper fulcrum]

20k xp requirement

[hidden sand]

Are you for real?

[edgy oriole]

I mainly get 20k-23k every game so it doesn't bother me too much.

[tacit sorrel]

They should do some 2x xp weekend’s

[edgy oriole]

Plus it's only week 3 of a 3 month battle pass.

[hidden sand]

Sheesh that's a ridiculously high requirement.

[tacit sphinx]

weekly reset would make everything go insanely quick lol

[copper fulcrum]

I understand why it's that high for me, because if it wasn't then I'd already be like level 99 or some shit

[tacit sphinx]

literally lol the idea is that it does take some time

[hidden sand]

Okay but when you're averaging about 4 BP Points per match, surely it's a bit slow?

Some people likely averaging one.

[tacit sorrel]

I like this system tbh

[copper fulcrum]

4 BP points a match is fine... I get one now lol

Sometimes two

https://tenor.com/view/the-incredibles-ive-got-time-gif-12758578

This is only week 3 of 12 so

i hate how this gif picker works

[hidden sand]

Guess it really comes down to how much you stand playing this game within a day. Which is where my concern comes from lol.

[tacit sphinx]

4 in a match is not a bad amount at all though

[uncut bay]

holy fucking shit i shot a rocket through an enemy car twice in a row i'm going to uninstall

[maiden bear]

Hi guys.. what is the difference of accuracy and recoil in attachments?

[severe carbon]

accuracy refers to spread, recoil is recoil

[maiden bear]

so recoil is better?

[copper fulcrum]

Accuracy is gun spread, recoil is gun go boing

[severe carbon]

accuracy is general better, you can control for spread

[restive magnet]

Im on like 16k requirement now

[copper fulcrum]

I go with accuracy over recoil since I can control recoil just fine

That being said it kinda depends on the gun. Like you don't need accuracy for an MP9 or K30

[maiden bear]

how about the sfar?

[tacit sphinx]

levelling up every 2-3 matches feels about right honestly, i get that it slows down later on but also by the point that it gets to like maybe only levelling up once every time you play for a while, you’re at the point where the challenges will definitely carry you to the end if you do them

[copper fulcrum]

For the SFAR, I go with Accuracy and tap-fire it for longer ranges if needed

[severe carbon]

yeah ultimately do whatever feels best to you, I use the champ muzzle break on the mp9 just because I like the feel of the low vertical recoil without increasing spread like the warhawk

[tacit sphinx]

especially considering the challenges can be backdated, if they couldn’t i’d be a bit more concerned

[tacit sorrel]

Yea and only the bonus missions expire

[maiden bear]

ok thanks guys

all of my matches I got 180 ping thats my lowest haha so sad

but for other games my ping is fine

[tacit sorrel]

They shouldn’t have changed melee

[maiden bear]

only in bf 2042 i got 180+ ping

[tacit sorrel]

Gotta copy cod 😔

[wheat crane]

Does anyone else get around 20-30 fps (my star wars battlefrons 2 runs very great at 70-80 fps) or is my computer just bad???

[tacit sorrel]

Bf1/bfv had a good melee system

[sweet barn]

huh

what about 2042's melee is cod like

[night vessel]

:PepeSus:

[hidden sand]

The 3rd person animations is 100% influenced by Warzone having them lol

[night vessel]

Imagine if we had veteran knife kill animations like BF3 but 3rd person

https://youtu.be/F5wAH_Gz77E

[thick shadow]

Anyone found that explosion levolution on manifest yet?

[hidden sand]

Would be disappointing. Would rather them go back to the first person melees.

[sweet barn]

the movement and melee in BFV was so good, why they scrapped all that work I dont understand

explosions sending you flying, able to roll on your back while prone

[hidden sand]

Because they wanted to try and bring in the COD crowd. "Look, we have third person takedowns just like you're game!"

[sweet barn]

[hidden sand]

A lot of the decisions boil down to them wanting to bring in new crowds.

But a good way to do that is by making something unique, showing off your differences from other games and why those differences make your game better.

That's what BF3 did in it's marketing and in gameplay.

Instead of just copying what they think is important and hoping for the best.

[dense hedge]

i dont know why they just couldnt add in and render two animations at the same time

first person and third person

your pov does first person with a tiny screen in the corner showing your pov in third person

[torn wigeon]

how do i get into arush game

[shy latch]

Exodus Conquest already gone 😭

[hidden sand]

What replaced it?

Air Calvary? Rip

[obsidian elk]

Does Dozer's new paid skin not change the shield at all?

[foggy halo]

So we left with Exodus breakthrough. Cursed.

[mossy badge]

funny that their own crowd left

[tranquil turtle]

Does air cavalry allow more than 1 air vehicle

[vocal adder]

that didn't last long haha

[elder patrol]

Moopflop

[torn wigeon]

conquest exposure

is there a way faster to grind r10 crossy

[patent heath]

Animations do not render the same in FP and TP iirc

Few games do it, like Star Citizen

[restive magnet]

Missions this week were too easy 😦

[dapper river]

viewmodel animators when they're asked to animate full characters:

[patent heath]

Animating pre-mocap era seems like hell

[dapper river]

keyframing without mocap can be fun, but animating traditionally in 2d is hell

[obsidian elk]

Back then animations weren't expected to be wholly realistic, just semi-believable

Look at games like Max Payne 1 & 2, and Jedi Academy

Nicely animated games with zero mocap

[patent heath]

There are a few exceptions of course, but you're right

[dapper river]

"our tools suck and animation is hard"
"I know, ship it anyways. no one will care"
-gamedev, circa 2004

[lilac dust]

2042 Infantry Rush you say? .... You had my curiosity now you have my attention Battlefield

[dapper river]

Is that featured this rotation? time to get the boys back on lul

[lilac dust]

Yessir

Just dropped

[obsidian elk]

People just got better at it over time

[dapper river]

does the new map support rush?

[obsidian elk]

that's why PS1 era video game animations were ass

and stiff

PS2 onwards, mo-capless animation was high quality

Animators improved

[lilac dust]

No idea. Just in my first game just now on Arica harbour

[dapper river]

I would have loved to be a game animator in the 6th/7th gen era, standards weren't as demanding back then

[sour meadow]

question. does a round of breakthrough on exposure count towards the Rush mission this week?

[patent heath]

What game has the best animations currently? TLOU2?

[hidden sand]

Read Dead 2

[sour meadow]

EFT has some great weapon and item animations

[dapper river]

Hard to say, there are so many good ones now

[hidden sand]

Best first person animations, Battlefield V

[patent heath]

Yeah but the movement is kinda wonky

[sour meadow]

whole game is kinda wonky

[patent heath]

Yeah I am aware

[sour meadow]

but does breakthrough counts as rush?

[hidden sand]

The style BFV had is the best I've seen in an FPS. It started with BF3, though, and only improved from then on.

[lilac dust]

Highly doubt it. You should try infantry 2042 rush

[dense hedge]

BFV was generally the best

[viscid bone]

It does not, you'll need to head on over to Battlefield Portal for Infantry Rush 🙂

[hidden sand]

I'm getting slightly concerned in the back of my head on how DICE might be handling the infantry only popularity.

[dense hedge]

Movement wise
Gun gameplay wise
gameplay wise
Animation wise
graphic wise
Vehicle gameplay wise
team work gameplay wise
everything about that game is good. if it wasnt set on a ww2 settings it wouldve been the best game ever

you know after playing bfv i expected bf2042 to be bfv but modern maps

[hidden sand]

I hope it's clear it's just the bad vehicle balance that has wanted people to have infantry only modes.

[dense hedge]

i dont think vehicles are unbalanced

infantry got too many counters for tanks

[dapper river]

teamwork makes short work of vehicles ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[soft swallow]

If I didn't end a mission of week 2, can I do it in week 3?

[calm bison]

When will we get a wall breaching specialist and every time they break a wall they go OH YEAH

[lilac dust]

Not sure about the bonus challenge, but the rest of the previous week challenges should remain

[soft swallow]

Okay because the multi-kill mission using explosives didn't work, so I'm trying to get it back (if it ever decides to work)

[pine roost]

Squad has some really weighty animations

[soft swallow]

I have to try the new Update

[fiery shoal]

in terms of the quality of the animations id say its tlou 2 and only challenged by rdr 2

[pine roost]

I have to play the whole thing more. I’ve had it since 3.8 but only have 100 hours 😬

[soft swallow]

I think the animations of TLOU 2 are more detailed than those of RDR2, there are certain details that in RDR2 do not exist. However the horse animations in TLOU 2 suck while in RDR2 they are done very well

It must also be said that the movements of TLOU2 are much more uncomfortable than those of RDR 2

[fiery shoal]

idk what you mean by uncomfortable

[soft swallow]

Since the movements are extremely realistic, the movement only stops when the walking animation is finished, in RDR2 the same thing does not happen.

[sour meadow]

ah bollocks

[lilac dust]

Considering it's a new mode and you only need to do 1 round. Think of it as seeing if you like the mode or not for one round

and getting rewarded for it

[sour meadow]

i do like it. problem is no one plays it

[lilac dust]

I'm getting full lobbies with crossplay turned off

With how good the mode is, once word spreads of it it should be really populated this week

[arctic grove]

so rush is back?

[lilac dust]

Even better than back

back as infantry focused rush

[arctic grove]

okay cool

Nice that dice is giving us the content we want but ut still isn't exasperating the decline

[mossy badge]

https://tenor.com/view/bravo-six-video-game-soldier-throw-smoke-im-ready-gif-17082390

very ez answer

[naive sandal]

sometimes i host 4v4 or 8v8 rush with no vehicles except latv4 recon on portal (even a 1v1 works in rush imo). we could find people who wanna play infantry-focused rush...

[hidden sand]

Idk Squad feels kind of janky. Hell Let Loose does a much better job imo.

[lilac dust]

what platform?

[uncut bay]

either tlou2 or forbidden west. Both games pushed it very hard

[naive sandal]

im on ps5 and have crossplay on

[soft swallow]

Doom 1993

[lilac dust]

Since it's a portal mode and doesn't compensate for your region with bots, I would just join someone in a different region and hopefully it doesn't lag too much. Here in the UK my lobbies are always full

[sour meadow]

i just found a lobby that was half full and my team was more busy playing tdm that ptfo

[naive sandal]

i usually turn off bots - find them annoying

[arctic grove]

bf4 did this way better with commander and a better squad ui

[lilac dust]

Don't think featured modes give you the choice of bots anyway

[hidden sand]

I was talking about animations.

[naive sandal]

if most players from Eu, will give you experience code so that u can host

[obsidian elk]

I've been playing the game for about three weeks now and the only consistently negative experience I have with it is caused by the aircraft with 50mm

Does anyone else feel the same way?

[arctic grove]

oh

[next onyx]

Not the only one.

[naive sandal]

yeah annoying AF, spent entire games hunting down vehicles with angel yesterday

[dapper river]

increasing rate of fire on 50mm was a mistake lmao. I got in a hind with a decent pilot and a couple of repairmen in the passenger seats and went 121-2.

I'd rather a slow rate of fire but high direct impact damage to reward accuracy

[lilac dust]

3 wins in a row on infantry rush woohoo

[vapid meteor]

the graphic lag is really killing this for me

seems like it would be so much more fun if i wasnt dropping frames

[soft swallow]

Boh turn the graphics down

[ember mist]

did they remove leaning?

[grizzled whale]

They never added leaning

[ember mist]

my bad, i meant from bfv to bf2042

so there isnt leaning in bf2042

[dull carbon]

No

Also

Is boris a femboy

Certainly looks like it

[fiery shoal]

i hate leaning in games, just leads to people corner camping

[blissful pond]

I would genuinely enjoy 2042 if my PC could run it, idk how my 1070 and i7 7700 can't run it at low settings with all the stuff done in the files and stuff

[dull carbon]

Yeah imagine adding leaning and then adding challenges to get hundreds of kills while camping a corner

Looking at MW2019

[grizzled whale]

I could barely run it with a 2070s and a 7700k, got 30fps on low on the point in breaktrough

Upgraded to a 12600k and now i get 100

[ember mist]

can we inspect our gun like in bfv

[dull carbon]

No

[ember mist]

wow

[tame cobalt]

No among us skins in the battle pass

How do i get a refund

[obsidian elk]

[ember mist]

what are the green dots on the loadout

its like 2/4

[solid imp]

Squad mates using that item; dots are the number of squad mates

[ember mist]

so if its 2 filled in, 2 squadmates are using the item?

is it just to know and stuff or is there a limit?

[solid imp]

No limit, just an FYI type feature

[ember mist]

ah thx, i havent played since day 1 so

[solid imp]

It's handy to know if someone has a SOFLAM I'll take the M5 for example

[ember mist]

ye, i can see how its useful

[lilac dust]

Seems like 2042 infantry rush is on the 6 portal maps only. Was kinda looking forward to playing on the new map at least

[arctic grove]

New Amazon Prime Skin

[obsidian elk]

Is AC-42 with High Power good?

Is it possible to set this weapon up in such a way that it kills in one burst?

[grizzled whale]

Chad angel

[bronze steeple]

Prob

[tacit sphinx]

no

[obsidian elk]

Lame

[bronze steeple]

Ryzen 9 5900x and rtx2060 here i got average 85 fps

[low timber]

More like Ty Burrell.

[bronze steeple]

Which is oke but with same setup i had 160fps bf v

[tacit sphinx]

if recoil carries you to a headshot it’ll be a one-burst kill

[bronze steeple]

[wise zodiac]

Hardcore mode wants to have a word with you. Lol

[tacit sphinx]

high power only has the advantage over standard issue between 75 and 100 metres in terms of damage, where it keeps enough damage to still be a 5 hit kill when standard issue goes to 6 hits

and of course bullet velocity is better with hi power

[bronze steeple]

You was that guy who told me horizontal recoil is better then vertical recoil right?

[tacit sphinx]

i mean yeah but you can set something up so a glock is a one hit kill at 100m with rule editors

[tacit sphinx]

in the sense that minimising hrec through attachments is generally better than minimising vrec at the cost of hrec control, yeah?

[dapper river]

pretty sure high power is strictly higher velocity, shorter travel time. it does not make your weapon do more damage

[bronze steeple]

Thats bullshit hrec sucks you know shit bro

Minimissing you told arcom is the best recoil

[modest ivy]

https://tenor.com/view/kellyclarkson-finally-gif-19815866

[bronze steeple]

[naive sandal]

Nope, high power also extends range at which it deals 22 hp dmg/bullet by 25 m (so that 22 hp dmg up to 99 m I think)

[tacit sphinx]

it varies between weapons but generally you get more damage at range (or like, you get less damage drop)

[dapper river]

but the base damage stays the same, no? that's what I meant lol

[modest ivy]

https://tenor.com/view/party-time-way-to-go-gif-14895283

[tacit sphinx]

ok? i’m not sure if you’re thinking of the same person though

[bronze steeple]

Me neither sorry if i am wrong👀

[foggy halo]

Hardcore is weird af

[tacit sphinx]

for the AC42 yeah, i think it might have more base damage on some guns? i’m not sure though

[naive sandal]

If you are accurate you can kill in one burst at close range by getting at least 1 headshot + 2 body shots

[bronze steeple]

Thats what she say

[bright axle]

has anyone else been having as horrible as a time as me as far as responsiveness of the game and consistency?

[foggy halo]

My 2013 pc struggled to run bfv, so I played vehicles. Then I bought a new pc and started to play inf and have much less fun, because teams are sometimes Dogshit and not pushing

[naive sandal]

I use it for mid-long range combat because of higher bullet vel (no need to lead shots at medium range) and slighly higher damage at 75-100 m

[bright axle]

one match will work smooth and then the next one will feel like it turned into a hardcore match for me and im shooting at agents from the matrix or something

[obsidian elk]

What's this 75-100m people keep talking about

Do High-power mags only affect that distance?

But the stats show that it always applies a flat 5 damage bonus

[bright axle]

can anyone see this message? i've been talking on here for 2 days now and have not had a single response

[sweet barn]

must have been the wind

[stone epoch]

Bruh I just got 100 projectiles stopped as Irish on a exposure breakthrough match lmao

[lilac dust]

Probably because few people have had the problem you have

[still vault]

That transport choppah pilot life

[sweet barn]

sorry that sounds like schizophrenia to me

[uncut bay]

perfectly balanced

[bright axle]

maybe but that would be hard to believe. I'll see some streamers play and I'll see them have the same problems and just either brush it off to having a bad game or rant for a second and nothing else

[fair onyx]

Play Rush?

How do I queue for that?

[lucid goblet]

Portal

[still vault]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/850376380822323230/903770952087785492/spinninglogo.gif

[fair onyx]

thank you

The menu in 2042 is pure cancer, ngl

Must confess that constantly changing gamemode names every game... not a fan

[bright axle]

maybe I've just become so sensitive to any server problems that I need to take a break but I want to be able to play the game that I bought without feeling like its a crap shoot on whether its going to work properly or not

[plain solar]

Anyone else suddenly experiencing severe mouse lag? every game if I move my mouse it takes about 2 - 4 seconds for the mouse to start moving and mimicking the movements I made. this only happens with the mouse.. if I WASD around its fine and instant. if I press esc to the in game menu mouse movement is completely normal

[naive sandal]

Regular ammo deals 22 hp dmg at distance of 30-75 m and high-power, 30-100m

[dull carbon]

Firepower isnt damage

[obsidian elk]

Then what does it mean

[boreal pendant]

its a random aggregate stat of a bunch of stuff I assume

[obsidian elk]

I see...

[boreal pendant]

well not random but

[obsidian elk]

Rather unintuitive

[obsidian elk]

I see

So high power ammo isn't nearly as effective as I thought

it's just a glorified Long Barrel

[boreal pendant]

https://sym.gg/index.html?game=bf2042&page=charts

[obsidian elk]

hmmm

[boreal pendant]

this should show you what you need

[obsidian elk]

So what about Armor Piercing ammo?

It specifically states that it deals reduced damage to personnel

But it only reduces Firepower and Range

[boreal pendant]

Firepower does technically include damage

but like you said its odd

[obsidian elk]

So AP ammo does reduce infantry damage?

[obsidian elk]

Wait, this confused me. Firepower includes damage, but High Power ammo does not affect damage directly, only prevents damage dropoff at 75-100m.

Is this a correct assessment?

I clicked your link but these charts are pretty hard to digest

[boreal pendant]

thats kinda what im guessing

I dont know the exact details

but yeah

[obsidian elk]

I see..

[white dagger]

Wait. So you can destroy Lis missiles by shooting them?

[obsidian elk]

Yes.

They're not easy to hit though

You need high fire rate

[white dagger]

I just destroyed one with my M5A3

[quiet shell]

Anyone else getting persistence data errors?

[uncut bay]

yeah, pretty easy with the transport miniguns

[runic burrow]

Hello, help me please. I have game on Russian language, so I don't know how named stats of weapons in English version. Every weapons have 4 stats: fire power, accuracy, fire range and "convenience" (?) I don't know. Somebody know, what mean that fourth stat?

[white dagger]

That’s a useful information

[lucid goblet]

That would be "Handling"

[vivid nacelle]

How easy it is to handle?

[runic burrow]

@lucid goblet yes, right

@vivid nacelle so what that stat doing? Sorry for my English

Speed of reloading? Speed of aiming?

[edgy oriole]

How easy it is to control recoil is my guess

[hexed mango]

probably handling yeah

[vivid nacelle]

Ads, reloadspead and weaponswitching according to google

[edgy oriole]

[hexed mango]

ADS and Reload speed are separate stats that appear in either Red or Green below the actual stats
but handling will give a base to that i believe

[lucid goblet]

handling refers to "spread" theres a site with it all broken down

will find it now 1 sec

[runic burrow]

@vivid nacelle oh, thank you. I tried to google it on Russian, but can't find something

[lucid goblet]

https://sym.gg/?game=bf2042&page=weapon-mechanics

[stable shadow]

Guys how can i add a Player ingame ?

There is nothing to add players

[runic burrow]

What is ADS?😅

[hexed mango]

aiming down sights (speed)

[stable shadow]

Nobody idea ?

[lucid goblet]

you can go through the "social" tab on the main menu, you can also click on players via the playerlist and add the mthrough that

[edgy oriole]

I had to add through origin I think. I only added 2 people tho so not 100% sure

[hexed mango]

you can send friend requests ingame

[edgy oriole]

[stable shadow]

But only possible ingame ? or after game too ?

[hexed mango]

there's a recently played with section

you can also search for players

[lilac dust]

Wtf lmaooo I just got a glitch where when I was revived I was controlling my character in 3rd person view 🤣

[stable shadow]

Ahhh i found it

Right bottom on main screen

[edgy oriole]

Battlefield would be a good topdown shooter

[hexed mango]

finally more challenges for me to do

[edgy oriole]

They so easy this week

[hexed mango]

fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck

[warm depot]

I spend €90 on this game and I can't even play it because it keeps crashing when I try to launch it

[hexed mango]

:(

[hexed mango]

https://tenor.com/view/skillissue-skill-issue-gif-22125481

atleast there's a new bundle that looks fire

sheeee

[edgy oriole]

Lemme see

[hexed mango]

included:
Player Card
Skin (Dozer)
Melee
Nightbird skin
Charm
AK skin
MP9 skin
player icon

melee is a pole

Saint player tag

[edgy oriole]

Tag looks cool

[low timber]

Oh, it is a knife, though it was a club

[hexed mango]

yeah its a knife that looks like a club

i gotta say, the takedown animation is not bad for this one

looks kinda cool

and dozer's skin is kinda terrifying

[runic burrow]

@lucid goblet than more spread - than more the zone of bullets flying?)

[obsidian elk]

It's cool but I prefer more sleek and efficient takedowns, spec-ops style

Stuff like the default takedown

Sandbar Special

[lilac dust]

No wonder I don't see people communicating in the team chat to strategise on PS5..... Got told to chill as if I was adam sandler in anger management. I typed 2 words 🤣

[obsidian elk]

and the Karambit one

are what I like

fast and deadly

[hexed mango]

true but how often are you really gonna use it.

its just for looks

dont over think it

[obsidian elk]

I play Mackay sometimes

I get the flanks

[runic burrow]

Spread - is the zone of flying bullets, yes?)

[obsidian elk]

People don't play hard enough to know to watch angles

As Mackay I very often get assassinations when I flank

[stable shadow]

How can i play Rush ?

[obsidian elk]

Question, why is the Bonus Mission called a bonus mission? Why isn't it just...the fifth mission?

[hexed mango]

gonna start maining dozer

[obsidian elk]

Portal mode

[arctic grove]

Portal

[stable shadow]

I thought Missions are not possible in Portal ?

[obsidian elk]

Portal is still an officially sanctioned game mode.

[runic burrow]

@hexed mango heavy shields ahead😱

[obsidian elk]

The server browser is what's not fully supported with exp and stuff.

[stable shadow]

So i can do all Missions on Portal ?

[hexed mango]

only in ones that dont have restricted xp

[stable shadow]

How do you mean that ?

[hexed mango]

you can tell by the description, there's a tag that says what level of xp it can give you, moderated allows progress but no mastery, and restricted means only xp
full xp means its a normal game

[stable shadow]

I see a restricted XP and FULL XP Maps

[obsidian elk]

What's the difference between "allowing progress" and "only xp"

Progress as in, weapon attachment stuff?

[hexed mango]

#direct-communication message
read this

[obsidian elk]

I see.

[stable shadow]

So maps with FULL XP it works ?

[hexed mango]

yes.

[stable shadow]

I get a error if i try to join

[hexed mango]

https://tenor.com/bEZ0L.gif

[runic burrow]

Guys, help please, I can't understand😅 if spread - is the zone where flying bullets and handling refers to it - what doing accuracy

[hexed mango]

the consistency of bullets

going towards where you want them to

[obsidian elk]

I love how all of us are confused at to what the stat chart actually means when customizing your gun

Lol

[hexed mango]

it is basically spread, so i dunno where you're putting spread
unless you're talking about a shotgun

[obsidian elk]

They should do something about it

[hexed mango]

i mean i understand it fine, its just that this guy is in russian so all his stuff translates differently to the other stat charts

[obsidian elk]

So you knew that Firepower didn't actually mean damage?

Before you were told?

[hexed mango]

yeah.. cause they arent the same

its literally in the name
"fire power"

[obsidian elk]

And you knew what the ultra-ambiguous "Handling" referred to exactly?

[hexed mango]

it covers multiple things tho
i do agree it is confusing, but it has its purpose

i mean describe how you, "handle" a gun

[obsidian elk]

It has its purpose?

[radiant ridge]

Anybody else’s game acting weird?

[obsidian elk]

Well, regardless of whether or not I believe that you actually understood what those statistics meant without anyone telling you, they still need clarification

[runic burrow]

@hexed mango I use AK 24 and trying various customisations. Grenade launcher and nozzles on the barrel reducing handling. I wanna know what that handling doing😅

[obsidian elk]

Talking purely from a UX standpoint, that menu is ass in explaining to the player exactly how something is being changed

And that needs improvement.

[hexed mango]

ADS speed, sway, draw time
basically makes the gun perform less easily as an actual gun

i personally wouldnt recommend using the grenade attachments as your main attachment tho

[obsidian elk]

Are there any drawbacks aside from slower ADS?

[runic burrow]

@hexed mango it's not main, but I did many beautiful kills with grenade launchers) It very good work when you higher than enemy and when enemy taking cover

[obsidian elk]

After I adapted to how the nade launcher works in this game I've gotten tons of kills with it and won a ton of 1v1's

[runic burrow]

@obsidian elk +++

[obsidian elk]

Being able to damage enemies behind cover without relying on the terrible frags is insanely useful

[soft swallow]

Multiple kill whit explosives still doesn't work AAAA

[obsidian elk]

You need at least 3 for it to count

I was confused by this too

[soft swallow]

I did it 5 (And 1 assist)

[obsidian elk]

I don't know then

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[soft swallow]

The condor boomed and I got a lot of kills

[ancient lichen]

Works for me

[runic burrow]

@soft swallow 5 for one explosion?

[ancient lichen]

Skill issue

[soft swallow]

Well yes I blew up a Condor

[hexed mango]

I love it when infantry conquest still has vehicles

[ancient lichen]

Bruh

[runic burrow]

@lucid goblet I can't understand) if spread - is the zone where flying bullets and handling refers to it - what doing accuracy

[ancient lichen]

They haven’t fixed that yet

[arctic grove]

Yeah, i have ping spike and lag

[hexed mango]

the same thing.
accuracy is the deviation of bullets

i literally already answered that

[runic burrow]

@hexed mango oh

[soft swallow]

How many vehicles do I have to detonate before finishing the mission?

:c

I just want points

[lilac dust]

I love it when you say you need help on a certain flag and almost the whole lobby comes and helps lmao

[arctic grove]

"whole lobby" its literally 63 people

Not few

[hexed mango]

you can view your missions ingame

[runic burrow]

@hexed mango okay, thank you) but I still can't understand, maybe too bad understand English =_=

[hexed mango]

accuracy = the deviation of bullets from your crosshair

[runic burrow]

@hexed mango okay, I see

[lilac dust]

Doesn't have the same ring to it when you say whole team

[hexed mango]

you dont need to ping me each time

[runic burrow]

[soft swallow]

Yes I know, it was a joke that the mission doesn't work

[runic burrow]

@hexed mango and handling?

[hexed mango]

.

[still vault]

Starts 2042, GPU and CPU goes to work, room temps go WROOOOM

[hexed mango]

ok someone choose a primary gun

[runic burrow]

@hexed mango oh, I finally got it😅 thank you for your patience)

[hexed mango]

I love spawning 300 meters away from the objective i clicked deploy on

[lilac dust]

K30

[still vault]

Favorite primary gun for me is the SFAR with anti vehicle underbarrel grenade. Very good allrounder.

[hexed mango]

"its not the lag, its you"

[runic burrow]

@hexed mango AK 24

@still vault SFAR is good, yes

Oh I see in the video it says it’s like 150 something.

[marsh temple]

is it possible to search for the preset playlists on portal? the ones on the main portal screen

[arctic grove]

Peak Battlefield moment

[hexed mango]

yeah right after the video it spiked up

The new paik skin

Kinda meh

[hexed mango]

new?

[lilac dust]

Any tips on "Air vehicle destroyed" ?

[hexed mango]

do you mean the one from the battlepass?

[hexed mango]

destroy an air vehicle obviously

[lilac dust]

Any tips on preventing every person on earth from running away after you get 1 hit?

[hexed mango]

be better idk

play rao?

hack them?

[lilac dust]

Maybe It's the condor's fucking with my head. I guess if I hack any other vehicle then I should have a chance of destroying it

[haughty dagger]

I mean it’s clear you were lagging when you didn’t kill anyone by running them over.

[hexed mango]

it was also a handful of ai, which are good at dodging cars
but i was sad i didnt hit anyone lol

[haughty dagger]

Just git gud with the M5 and take out choppers

[mild portal]

Hey all, I just bought the game and I get this issue: I can't post images but the error is this: DirectX function "res" failed with E_UNEXPECTED crash on launch.

Has anyone encountered that before?

[hexed mango]

update drivers

[mild portal]

I've done that, made sure DirectX 12 is updated and made sure that I got the latest one from Nvidea

[hexed mango]

did you enable DX12 in your settings tho

[mild portal]

That's the problem, I bought the game today and never got a chance for it to get to settings area haha

Juststraight up crash after install

[hexed mango]

no its not ingame

[mild portal]

Oh

[hexed mango]

you have to open your settings file

[mild portal]

In my documents folder?

[hexed mango]

\Documents\Battlefield 2042\settings

yep

[still vault]

If you crash the first time you probably don't have a settings file

If I get DirectX errors, or help people with them, the first thing I always try is a proper clean uninstall of my graphics drivers using DDU https://www.guru3d.com/files-details/display-driver-uninstaller-download.html in safe mode, then installing the latest driver.

Better than nothing ig

Does SOFLAM allow the stinger to lock on to ground vehicles?

[hidden sand]

No

[hexed mango]

it should yeah

wait really

bruh

[obsidian elk]

It should work that way tbh

SOFLAM could use buffs

Not enough people use it

[still vault]

If you have not used it before read the instructions carefully or watch a guide. It's just a .exe file, doesn't really need to be installed but it should be downloaded.

Hey is anyone's incidnary gernade not working ?

[still vault]

incendiary grenades are kinda buggy atm.

[surreal escarp]

Ok I just wanted to make sure I wasn't seeing things

[obsidian elk]

I just learned that you can use the SOFLAM to paint an aircraft so that the Wildcat's anti-ground missiles will lock on to the aircraft

[elder patrol]

Does irish block explosive bolts

[obsidian elk]

Since the ground missiles are a lot stronger than the AA missiles, it's a good combo

[soft swallow]

Exactly

[calm bison]

Kaleidoscope is getting a rework in August and specialists are getting a tone shift

Renewal’s rework is coming in Season 2

[cunning breach]

2 aircraft for bf3
1 aircraft and 1 vehicle for bfbc2

[soft swallow]

Probably one map per season is not enough but I still do not understand why people complain about the quantity of weapons if, even if they are few, they are not all used, putting a lot of weapons would be a waste of time

[cunning breach]

also i heard we were getting an anime skin for one of the female operators

are* sorry

[obsidian elk]

Thank goodness.

[hexed mango]

they did literally say it was lowered cause of the bug fixes

people complaining about content are dumb, im sorry.

[low timber]

Soflam does allow the lock on of AA missiles to ground targets. I’ve killed a Bolte with the FXM AA missile once.

[soft swallow]

I hope it's a fake detail

[calm bison]

As far as we are concerned, the anime skin is not happening

[hexed mango]

its not confirmed

[calm bison]

Given the tone that DICE is leaning towards

[obsidian elk]

Interesting, thank you.

[hexed mango]

and the hate that was given from the santa skin

[soft swallow]

I hope it's a fake detail lol I will uninstall the game if I see just one anime skin

[obsidian elk]

Cringe.

"I don't like what that character is wearing so I'm going to quit"

[calm bison]

I mean most of the gun and vehicle skins seem pretty in line with a more gritty tone

[hexed mango]

[north pier]

Anime is for paedophiles

[soft swallow]

It's not cringe, I'm telling the truth, I uninstall Battlefield 2042 and wait 2 years for the next game

[next onyx]

Are there patch notes?

[soft swallow]

Yes

[calm bison]

Also I love that people claimed that the new Mackay skin made him discount Ghost, as if people aren’t allowed to wear skeleton-type clothing

[arctic grove]

that anime skin was only datamined you know @soft swallow

[next onyx]

Which skin?

[soft swallow]

Ok I'm going to ask for a refund

[calm bison]

It’s the one wear he has like a skull mask

I can’t upload the image cuz I’m not regular

[wide shore]

Pls tell me we can buy that AK skin separately

[calm bison]

I think so

Maybe

[arctic grove]

meaninnnggg its not confirmed nor denied wether it will be in the game

[calm bison]

I’m not sure

[wide shore]

Getting on now to check anyway. I really hope it is

[stark ravine]

is there no screen where i can view my stats

[wide shore]

You can!

[stark ravine]

where

[soft swallow]

Obviously they work on the immersion of the characters and then they put me in a crappy anime skin, I don't know if they actually will and if it would be a good idea, people didn't like Santa Claus, figure an anime skin

[stark ravine]

no in game stats?

[soft swallow]

I have nothing against anime, I watch a lot of anime, my propic is from a game inspired by a manga. But an anime cosmetic on BF2042 couldn't handle it

[hexed mango]

to yourself

[hexed mango]

ur mom is an ingame stat

[wide shore]

No need to be unnecessarily rude.

when it comes to game immersion im less focused on

[arctic grove]

an anime skin and just seeing myself on the enemy team

[soft swallow]

When I saw the AOT skin on Warzone, I felt sick to my stomach

Now I imagine Riko from Made In Abyss running for the Kaleidoscope with an M5A3

It's just... no

[arctic grove]

dont forget snoop dogg in vanguard

[soft swallow]

Yeah Snoop Dogg in WW2

[wide shore]

Historically accurate

[arctic grove]

i personally wouldnt really care about anime skins just as i always say try to figure anything possible out to solve the 'clone wars' problem although i dont mean to beat a dead horse

[hexed mango]

smoking up the battlefield

[soft swallow]

Agree

[mild portal]

So I tried ddu, still get the same issue SIIIGH

Something to do with Driver 51640? >:l

[vital fractal]

is the ammount of XP to earn battlepass point depending on the battlepass level?

[still vault]

what are your specs?

[mild portal]

i7 8700k, RTX 3070 32gb ram

[soft swallow]

"GTX 550, 1GB RAM, i3 1th generation... nothing wrong, I can even run Doom 1993"

[stark ravine]

my mom died last week actually

[hexed mango]

oof what
lol, good one mat

[soft swallow]

: I

[still vault]

Did you have the settings folder in documents as asked before?

[mild portal]

nope, just bought the game this would be my first time launching it

[soft swallow]

What?

What is that?

[hexed mango]

its a file that holds your settings

[soft swallow]

???

I'm stupid

[still vault]

Does the error message say something about an untrusted system file?

[hexed mango]

a file, on your pc, that holds your in-game settings.

[mild portal]

No, i can dm you the error I get

[still vault]

sure

[hexed mango]

\Documents\Battlefield 2042\settings\

[soft swallow]

Mmmmh

Let me see

I have PROFSAVE and PROFSAVE_profile

[hexed mango]

the latter

[vivid nacelle]

Rush on the Chile map is literally a Running simulator, fk that map

[still vault]

If you go into Windows Reliability History and/or Event Viewer, do you see the error in there?

[mild portal]

How would I access that?

[still vault]

start menu, begin writing the things and it should suggest them

[mild portal]

So I found Event Viewer

[still vault]

"reliability" "event viewer"

[mild portal]

ok got it

So I found this, will send another screenshot

[lime mango]

They should change that you dont go back to the menu after every match🤣 its starting to get annoying lowkey

[next onyx]

Persistent lobbies would go a very long way.

[hexed mango]

https://tenor.com/view/breaking-bad-saul-goodman-my-gif-25351358

[next onyx]

If there was a server browser even that'd be brilliant.

Cause then you aren't entirely forced to play the shit maps.

[still vault]

nothing in reliability monitor, try event viewer

[hexed mango]

portal moment

[mild portal]

Okay where would I look for in event viewer?

[still vault]

most likely administrative events, application, system, look for red ! at the exact time you had the crash

[mild portal]

ok

[next onyx]

Funny part is that portal doesn't show all out warfare games, that and barely anyone in comparison to those playing all out warfare use it.

[mild portal]

Let me launch again and ill check event viewer

Nothing comes up @still vault

[next onyx]

This game needs a server browser and persistent lobbies. No one likes being forced to back out when you can just walk away when it's done, come back to the new map straight after the current one after doing what you need.

[lime mango]

I like break through on the recent map. Lets hope it sticks around for a while as that playlist

[next onyx]

Exodus conquest is my favourite.

[hexed mango]

misclick sorry

[next onyx]

The maps in 64p aren't God awful for the most part.

[mild portal]

I do get crashdumps in the CrashDumps section. Not sure if that means much

[next onyx]

If in discarded there were less distance between a and c.

[lime mango]

Just wwe someone's vehicle off a ledge while driving a tank

[next onyx]

Haha.

[bronze steeple]

With k30 and play agressive i like exodus more in breakthrough

[lime mango]

https://tenor.com/view/555-high-iq-555iq-iq-think-gif-19108239

[next onyx]

Wwe super slam.

I don't even need the vector to play aggro.

[lime mango]

Not so epic gif fail

[next onyx]

64p breakthrough was pretty meta too.

[hidden sand]

Kinda unrelated but do you use 0% coefficient, Way?

[next onyx]

It's just nice not getting constantly hit in more directions than you can conceive.

Uhhh what you mean?

[hidden sand]

Uniform soldier aiming

[bronze steeple]

@next onyx but agree best map so far

[next onyx]

My USA is on 178% because of my monitor.

[still vault]

Don't know how to read the crashdumps in a meaningful way so next thing I would suggest would be to rule out any other software you might have running causing it, for that you will have to play during a clean boot https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/da2f9573-6eec-00ad-2f8a-a97a1807f3dd (remember to not disable Origin/EA Desktop).

[bronze steeple]

I use 0

[next onyx]

There's some ratio to the size of your monitor and USA.

[mild portal]

ok ill try that!

[next onyx]

With 178% on a 27inch screen my vertical and horizontal look around is 1:1.

[lime mango]

I dont know how much i use because i do not know what it is xd

[next onyx]

Basically just something that allows consistency with aiming.

It's a weird feature I'm still understanding but it just works.

[bronze steeple]

I have 27" monitor and coefficient 0 works for me played that was on bf v allready

[lime mango]

Sounds like something that isn't available on console

[bronze steeple]

Its a setting in options

[hidden sand]

It is actually

Just under advanced controls options

[next onyx]

Try 178% USA and feel it.

[hidden sand]

Will do

[next onyx]

Err I mean the other guy what's your monitor.

What's your display suika.

[bronze steeple]

Mine?

[hidden sand]

21 inch I believe?

[wide shore]

Gonna try and say this skin rules again. Maybe it’ll post this time

Yayyy

[next onyx]

Try 138.

Or 133.

I can't remember how it's done. -.-

[bronze steeple]

I have AOC 144hz qhd 27" curved screen

[next onyx]

If there's some good scar skin imma get it

Try 178% sander.

See if it's more efficient.

[bronze steeple]

Looks great

I will try but why not use 0?

[next onyx]

It evens out better there.

For you.

[mild portal]

@still vault So I've tried clean boot. I got the same issue unfortunately 😦

[bronze steeple]

Oke i will try ty

[next onyx]

21 inch should be 133% and then 178 for 27inch.

[bronze steeple]

Lets see how it works out

[next onyx]

Yeah I hope it'll help.

[mild portal]

Might be a refund at this rate which is quite upsetting

[bronze steeple]

I go kinda oke with 0 if it improves my look around i tell you

[bronze steeple]

You bought that skin?

[obsidian elk]

It's part of the new Dozer bundle, in the store

Have to buy

[still vault]

Very obscure error, only 2 results for it on Google with only https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/forums/game-ready-drivers/13/495141/bf2042-directx-function-res-failed-with-eunexpecte/ suggesting it being graphics card related.

[bronze steeple]

Insane skin

[mild portal]

Yeah, it might be. Which is weird because I can run BfV just fine and other games just fine

[lime mango]

Took me while

But i found it

[flat ivy]

Hello there, is there anyone looking to friend someone to play PS5 BF2042 with?

[mild portal]

I'm wondering if I can get my friend to send me their settings folder and see if that would work

[still vault]

Last try, can you send me a dxdiag in a DM?

[mild portal]

ok

What would you like to see in the dxdiag?

[still vault]

Not sure what I'm looking for. Most just things that are out of place, like odd drivers or errors.

[wide shore]

Yeah. I used 500 of my BP boins

[zealous patio]

Any info on major or minor patch for season 1 ?

[mild portal]

ok

[calm bison]

Tank fest is this weekend

[bronze steeple]

Oke i didnt buy any BP coins

[calm bison]

Anyone going?

[wide shore]

I didn’t buy any either. I just had boins from the battlepass.

[bronze steeple]

Does it has anything to do with what fov you play?

[next onyx]

No.

[lime mango]

What actually does coefficient thing do?

I notice no difference

[next onyx]

I will admit I'm not too well versed on it but I have felt its affects. It feels like a dot that you squeeze with your monitor size to make it work.

[lime mango]

Im playinh on a tv maybe thats why i dont notice it

[flat ivy]

its very fine adjustments, so 99% of players just don't change it, and tbh also 99% including me don't exactly knwo what it means or does

[silk surge]

This week was too easy. Took me 3 matches.

[hidden sand]

I don't care if it's too easy personally. I just want to get through the BP as quick as possible.

[bronze steeple]

I saw a youtube movie which explaining this but it say at a 3x sight and up you start noticing diff from 178%

https://youtu.be/qbV3JmRi3K8

[lime mango]

I like those battle pass challenges

Fit very well with low skill level

[hidden sand]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b_TO4xpvvn4
Silk seems to have made a good video on it. Supposedly 0% is most optimal?

[shrewd summit]

Played the new map for the first time last night. I like it, has a lot of different ways to play. I was trolled hard by the Hind, how do you defeat that chopper?

[vivid nacelle]

Rao, AA, but mostly teamwork

[hidden sand]

Well the Hind and Condor are both broken atm thanks to the 50mm
So you'll have abnormal difficulty taking them out

[shrewd summit]

Okay, I'll just ignore them and suck it up.

[bronze steeple]

Played 0 in bf v and in 2042 aswell
