battlefield-2042

[chilly jacinth]

thats like 4 points per match

[arctic grove]

bf 2042 is complex. altrough i like personally the new map.

[fiery solar]

Even in solo actually

[stoic ferry]

community server was the thing that made bf4 so fing good

[arctic grove]

indeed. didnt told its hard. consider we week 3 and im 46 rank alrdy

[fiery solar]

Does it say how long this season is

[arctic grove]

i wonder how much points weekly to get by missions. forgot to look

nop. but the weeks says it +-

it can always be later lets say

[fiery solar]

Oh I never checked for that

[arctic grove]

12 weeks

[fiery solar]

Yeah I just checked now I forgot I had the game opened

When did week 3 start

[arctic grove]

so i guess i look next week. whats max point weekly to earn. and what tier it gives if ya dont count the normal games exp points in :p

but it seems the putted it intended very low. the can always make missions harder or slower progress xd

[arctic grove]

the day after wednesday. ( not english and brain fart sorry)

[fiery solar]

Oh it started yesterday

[arctic grove]

it reset around midday

utc +0

[fiery solar]

Wait how did I get the endangered bundles is it for people who bought gold edition+?

[arctic grove]

nop

i got it on cross gen bundle console too

[obsidian elk]

Guys what does "brachivnik" mean? Sometimes the russian characters say it during combat

I googled and no result

[arctic grove]

think everybody got it maybe ? (the cross gen bundle have 4 seasons passes too in. and that extra skins the gifted as a sorry)

[fiery solar]

I can’t unlock the premium battle pass items on play station unless I log on pc I wish I didn’t have to do that every time

[arctic grove]

huh thats weird

did ya play 1 game on the playstation ?

its just freeze ya progress if im right ? but progress works fine on pc

[bronze steeple]

I am not mad but why you even wanne play agains bots bro

[arctic grove]

everybody there own reason. i know people like it due to bad connections @bronze steeple

[fiery solar]

My game doesn’t even load on pc it takes a long time for it to load into the game itself I play on play station now and I need to simply log into the game on pc for me to get my battle pass items

[bronze steeple]

👌

[fiery solar]

Commando takedown the best takedown

[arctic grove]

my bug for the last 8months the fixed. maybe ya just unlucky like me last time. i try to explain. sorry if its big.

[plucky pebble]

imagine no gifs bruh

[arctic grove]

@fiery solar part 1: so. on playstation i did unbind my saved account. frist 2 months. thinking new origin account link save be fine. (yes was late hours silly me).

game hitted me with more then 3months to bind back to my original save 🤣

[edgy oriole]

My best work.

[arctic grove]

part2: contacted EA support. and the menaged tho get it back before waiting that long time lol. but in the process off them doing it. it would ask me every 24h to change my password. even if i did got always 2fa password protection enabled 🤣 @fiery solar.

season 1 dropped and its fixed. (its also 1 off the reason why i quited. everyday change the origin account without even asking me for 2fa)

i was just like. fck it. uninstall

[arctic grove]

nice 1. but im to lazy download and play slowmode. but it feels like it didnt should hit him

maybe server end issue :p

[real pawn]

Hmm

[arctic grove]

not saying ya didnt shooted good

[edgy oriole]

Nah i had those shots dialed in.

[prisma hinge]

weird perspective, it looks like you shot behind where he was heading

i guess its the clouds

[arctic grove]

i wish i captured my little insane thing yesterday on exporsure xd. flyed with with stealth chopper tunnel and team guy got insane on that extra seat gun. and i dropped bom 10 kills xd survived 1 hp haha

[bronze steeple]

[arctic grove]

probally

mind game :p

[arctic grove]

can verify its the clouds doing mind game. nice shot 😉

[hidden sand]

Sheesh. Just saw someone genuinely complaining about incorrect apostrophes in this game.

[arctic grove]

his issue xd

[craggy shuttle]

anyone down for game

[tranquil turtle]

reddit

[dusk canyon]

Anyone want to play bf4

[hidden sand]

I don't think I've ever seen someone attempt to use incorrect grammar, from an EU team, as criticism but here we are sadly lol.

[grizzled island]

What?

[arctic grove]

there always people that want to use something to blame :p even if it makes no sense.

[tall bridge]

Finding minute things to be annoyed or mad about is easy when you are looking at everything through rose colored glasses

[arctic grove]

or if ya play to long a game ya dont like.

[tall bridge]

Well then that sounds like a personal issue. Lol. People tend to be mad about anything they can be when they are having a bad day or in a foul mood in general. Suddenly being out of peanut butter is a huge deal

[arctic grove]

my rule is if i dont like it. i dont play it. simple. and take breaks xd

[tall bridge]

That helps. Also learning to laugh and not take things personally.

[arctic grove]

@tall bridge agree. need to relax more that people xd

[tall bridge]

Plus for some reason, angry people love being agreed with. Like hey I'm mad, someone justify my anger by being mad about this same thing. Cool. The mad people party.

[arctic grove]

like i played a p2w game small. guild guy was so mad on voice. i told him not worth it. told ya before. rewards on that pvp content wasnt even worth it

he outbursted. told sorry later and taked 1 day break xd. to hooked to keep playing. and to much time invest to quit lets say

[hexed mango]

ghost

[arctic grove]

he smashed his pc mouse it sounded like he breaked more then that 😂.

but he told. he did due to mouse didnt respond. then he told it did respond after that insane smash. idk how it works still lol

[arctic grove]

hope he dont haunt you :p

what map is that btw if i can ask.

[arctic grove]

He doesn't have the DSM

First time logging on since season 1 started i do have premium as i preordered but what was i all supposed to get with the battlepass

its look like that new map tunnel entrance look alike. its normally open. but sometimes there is a rock hide it can walk trough it. dont see. and can get shot

[arctic grove]

just wanna make sure i received everything

[tired pelican]

sniping is really all about providing mininimum possible value to your team isnt it ......

[arctic grove]

it also seems to got bit worse last 2 days. some windows on that facility looks like rocks too till game says if enter lets render.

[arctic grove]

sort of yeah

[arctic grove]

especially in 2042 if i grab a sniper its usually just to help myself if im anything else is when you catch helping the team more

depends how ya snipe i say :p

dont be on spawn.... bt etc

move ya damm ass

the do rl too 😁

[tired pelican]

maybe i havent unlocked the right sniper for the job but i cant really play with any aggression at all lol

[arctic grove]

there scopes :p. not saying go close combat xd

[tired pelican]

im stuck on 6x until i leech off my team some more

[arctic grove]

but possition diffrent key spots. is possibel with snipers

definally that new map

[tired pelican]

i used to play 2x ironsights in bf1

and bfv

[arctic grove]

idk x2 wont try it even bf 2042 xd

x4 lowest i go.

[arctic grove]

those graphics are something else

its a issue i notice too@arctic grove

happend after this lots live services fixes when season 1 dropped

[tired pelican]

ill stick to the dxr i think that gun wrecks

[arctic grove]

it does

[tired pelican]

sfar as well is surprisingly good at range

wait idk if im thinking of the dxr or not

dm7 i mean

dxr i dont like lol

[arctic grove]

both good :p

[tired pelican]

oh theres only 2 snipers

sheesh

[arctic grove]

3

[tired pelican]

the third one is an anti tank rifle...

[arctic grove]

ntw50 technically too

[tired pelican]

guess snipers in this just arent build the way i want them to be

[arctic grove]

the feeled always weird in this game indeed

[hexed mango]

dxr is the best sniper for long range

[tired pelican]

yea i mean u play with it and its like

wow i can kill like 2 guys in a minute

[arctic grove]

the dmr classes off wapons also got a bullet velocity buff recently. so love them again myself

[tired pelican]

i just want a speedy bolt action basically

[arctic grove]

jep (yep english 😁 )

i loved bfv and bf 1 bolt actions too

[tired pelican]

🙏

lee enfield in bfv and the mwhateveritwas in bf1

[hexed mango]

GVT is the best gun

[tired pelican]

lol i played with that for a bit and was like

why would i ever use this

i hope its been buffed since i played

[hexed mango]

its a headshot machine

thing is a goat

pew pew pew

best sniper in the game

by far

[arctic grove]

didnt touched it yet lots. but can say. mine dont have lots attachments. and it hit hard yes :p

besically only 1 scope i have on it yet 🤣

but i play mostly medic role. so i dont use that kind off wapons rly

focussed frist on the dmr mid range wapons. and dxr

crossbow i like too 😂 altrough not rly recommend it

.
anyway was nice to talk abbit to yall. finally less talks about how we hate stuff too :p nn

[stone epoch]

I love being a medic and pretty much brute forcing your team to advance with tons of revives lol

[brisk hill]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/258026212708843521/809224059825029161/lmaonicefly.gif

[hidden latch]

bro ngtl i thought that fly was real i was gonna smack my computer so hard

[gloomy wyvern]

An emp should kill all power & let us watch the bird fall 😈

[obsidian elk]

boiiiiiii

400 more kills until t1 scar

[gloomy wyvern]

It shouldn't act like a "hack"

[obsidian elk]

I really feel like we need more vehicle slots for 128

It doesn't feel enough

The battles need to feel larger scale

Or maybe it's only an Exposure thing? Is it normal to have only two tanks on big maps with 128 people?

[hardy kestrel]

They wouldn't have had to trim any vehicles at all had they just instituted better balance.

[dense hedge]

planes need to have another slot selection rather than being in the same selection as helicopters

its been a while since i last saw a jet

and jet feel like shit so people always pick the heli over it

[hardy kestrel]

If X vehicle is dominating you primarily check its weapons and you check its counters and 99% of the time one of those is broken/underperforming

[dense hedge]

this game should have 4 tanks each, 4 planes each, 2 helis each, 2 transport each

[hardy kestrel]

definitely needs a dedicated jet slot or they could rotate them in like first 10 minutes is jets and then next 10 mins is helis

Best balance could be achieved with BF4 style where each map had dedicated slots so designers have near total control over balance.

Plus all vehicle get represented

[dense hedge]

a hybrid between bfv and bf4 would make sense for bf2042

[dapper bane]

Where is the Conquest Exodus 64 with the 4 best old school maps added of all times for a total roration of 9 maps ? it was removed ?

[obsidian elk]

I feel like the current vehicle limits are for 64 players

Not 128

[dapper bane]

the networking is made for 64, in production the maps were never tested at 128

[brisk hill]

Haha

[cunning plume]

128 sounded cool, but wasn't executed right

[chilly jacinth]

128 on the new map is great though

[wide shore]

Sounds like a trust me bro statement off I’ve ever read one

[lavish matrix]

anyone looking top party up. have never done bf2042 party chat

having a beer a love flying helis

[edgy oriole]

[fiery solar]

Anyone remember the last time they got a tornado in hourglass

[edgy oriole]

I dont even remember the last time i got to play hourglass

[fiery solar]

Or one on renewal that didn’t sit in the background

[fiery solar]

That bad?

Or it’s never the map in a game

[edgy oriole]

all ive been getting is south korea and breakaway

[fiery solar]

All I get is breakaway and renewal

[hallow sierra]

i seen tornado in hourglass

[fiery solar]

Or got

[buoyant coyote]

Anyone even seen the rocket launch

[fiery solar]

I haven’t seen one since January

[hallow sierra]

i mean i never seen one

[fiery solar]

Only when the round ends

[hallow sierra]

all i see was sandstorms and dats it

[fiery solar]

I’ve never seen the rocket launch mid game since the beta

[buoyant coyote]

They prob took itbout

It launches after game like Nuketown

[fiery solar]

I told someone they said I was just unlucky

[quiet shell]

Pretty good chance we'll get the portal weapons in the July update

[edgy oriole]

#battlefield-2042 message this the last time i remembered one on renewal. this was a bit ago tho. it was in our spawn.

[fiery solar]

I’ve never had the opportunity to even shoot the rocket down only in breakthrough

I’ve actually seen the tornado destroy the rocket more than I’ve seen it launch

[arctic grove]

reminds me of the russia vs ukraine server i saw the other day 🤣

[fiery solar]

That’s actually sick

[arctic grove]

Dozer skin looks like a dia de los muertos theme skin but it makes sense since he is Mexican.

[edgy oriole]

yeah. good thing they didnt put that in a name or else the community would be big mad.

[arctic grove]

I mean they dont have to say it. Its pretty obvious and i dont mind it. Im glad they finally adding these r6 skins

[split slate]

i love exposure breakthrough it’s my fav mode

[upbeat sand]

300k until my first t1

[small ember]

Hello

[topaz field]

I just got cursed out on PSN message after I ruined a stealth pilot 23-0 lmfao

[small ember]

Got the game on Xbox one when it came out but kept falling through buildings wondering if it’s been fixed

[arctic grove]

Oh they def pissed

But agin why don’t ppl run a Rao and Lis combo team it’s a really good vehicle hunting team

[arctic grove]

Teamwork makes the dream work

[arctic grove]

Its fixed for the most part. Its playable. I recommend to give it a try.

[low carbon]

Hey guys, I haven't played in quite a while. Anyone in Australia struggle finding match?

[small ember]

Cool thanks

Heard portal is doing really good and fun

[arctic grove]

Make sure to have crossplay on

[small ember]

Is portal better then the past games?

Thinking of trying the realistic modes sounds fun

[arctic grove]

I know a few auzzies who have no trouble finding games. Portal has some fun game modes with full xp.

[small ember]

Main problem leveling up was so slow since half of your bullets did no damage network was so bad lol

[small ember]

Xp in portal now?

[arctic grove]

Yes and the featured ones have full xp enabled

[small ember]

Guess I missed a lot

[low carbon]

Ok, thanks. Just want to check before I redownload the game.

[small ember]

I’ve a friend she’s nearly blind just terrible eye site she wants to try the game do you think sniping is a good choice for her?

That was she isn’t in as much danger being far back and has a bit more over view

[arctic grove]

Yes that would help. Your friend would have to pick a specialist with the scout ability. Maybe a use a recon droid gadget with a good sniping gun.

recon drone is good for spotting.

[small ember]

I always used Sundance to get around faster and to get away if spotted

The one lady with the wall hacks she’s still locked for me sadly

Her skill is kinda crazy when you think people are near

Have they finally added destruction? Like when first came out like three walls could come down

While Bf4 could take down whole buildings

[arctic grove]

Destruction hasnt really been improved. but the gameplay and network has improved and with more variety.

[small ember]

Good enough for me I guess

[arctic grove]

Yeah. Give it a try and then decide if its for you or not.

[small ember]

I loved the game when the network worked

I didn’t see why so much hate on it name another big fps shooter with a better launch

In fact dev team did great with the crappy leaders they had good thing the old ones left

But do believe more specialists need to be added quickly since not many

[topaz field]

i run Rao and I pilot if i know im going to get blown up by enemy heli i just jump out hack then AA-missle lmao

[void mason]

yo

2042 worth it for 50% off

[wild condor]

I'm live on Twitch, come hang out! https://www.twitch.tv/RayjinGaming?sr=a

[void mason]

??

[small ember]

Always

Plus if you don’t like the base game try portal

[void mason]

wdym portal

[small ember]

It’s like a lot of the past games can edit game modes

It’s really cool

[void mason]

interesting did the glitches get fixed?

[small ember]

Many did far as I’m told

They’ve a new manger and new leaders since the old ones left after they failed

So they’re saying they’re gonna work as much as they can on 2042 to make it what the fans were promised

[void mason]

bet bet

[small ember]

Portal alone is worth it

I’m sure they didn’t leave on their own choice they most likely were gonna be fired

Often people ask people to leave so they don’t have to say fired

[dapper summit]

Air warfare only one air vehicle in portal weak

[small ember]

Hard core no hud game modes were really fun

[lucid void]

How do i fix a no qt problem with 2042

[real pawn]

That’s all I play I really don’t like the main game

[small ember]

Main game is gonna be worked on a lot more now which is nice under new management

I’m hopeful she can get things done but if not still got portal

[scenic tartan]

my new favorite thing to do in breakthrough exposure attack is to grab the MAV at the start of the round so attackers dont have a hind
they always end up losing as long as the mav is alive lmao
and boy people get mad when you spawn that MAV instead of the hind.
the mav isnt even close to as useful as the hind. it does nothing but die fast

[hexed mango]

lmao

you woke up and chose violence

[real pawn]

Hmmm

[arctic grove]

It’s kinda sad the mav will just get jumped by tgm’s

[dapper river]

shove it

[arctic grove]

Absolutely not

[wintry sinew]

Battle field 5

Love me sten

Love me ram charge

[arctic grove]

I don’t think we’ll even inch our way there with how dice executes the vehicle balancing

[wintry sinew]

Ate "zany tater"

Nuff said, really

[upbeat sand]

amazon has 19 dollar AUS

[small ember]

How would I unlock the new operator?

[upbeat sand]

battlepass

[arctic grove]

Lis is unlocked within the first 5 tiers of the BP I think

[void mason]

fr?? how i buy it from aus dollars

[upbeat sand]

just look up on amazon

should be on sale

for your country currency

[arctic grove]

If only it worked that way lol

[upbeat sand]

also origin/ ea app are having a sale at the same time as the steam sale and is cheaper than steam

2042 on steam is 44 dollars aud
2042 on origin is 40 dollars aud

basically ea's own sale has things cheaper by about 3-10 dollars

[scenic tartan]

thats all armored vehicles now

[arctic grove]

Yeah, I haven’t really touched them, hopefully dice does something nice for em at some point

[scenic tartan]

it seems like it does the same damage as a recoilless it should be way less

[arctic grove]

If the tgm doesn’t already have it, there should be a smoke trail behind the missile that lingers for a few seconds to better track people using it and chase em down

People will have to rethink about where they are positioning and if they have a route they can use to get away from the tank if they’re spotted

[thorn helm]

SU16TM Series

[arctic grove]

I just googled what that is

That’s the most cursed gun I’ve seen in a while

[thorn helm]

waehy

what about Kel-Tec P50

nvm mind it's semi auto

PLR16TM this one butter....?

[obsidian elk]

Tier one skins look so good

weapons, vehicles, specialists

everything

[hexed mango]

yes but there are some cooler skins

like the BP one for the GVT, i use that over the T1 skin

K30 Stinger

PKP Danger (idk the actual name)
But also PBX danger

MCS Safety (i again dunno the actual name)

[tranquil turtle]

That looks goofy

[thorn helm]

Scout Elite ha nothing on this......

[obsidian elk]

[obsidian elk]

I think slowly over time they will keep making skins that are on the same level as Tier One or even better

it only makes sense, especially if they are paid content

But Tier One is still really good

I also love how it's uniform

[obsidian elk]

black, red, and little bits of gold

[hexed mango]

anyways

back to the crossbow grind

what free text

oooooooooooook

[hidden sand]

Is that yours, Way?

[elder igloo]

I just want to say it.... KEEP CALL OF DUTY OUT OF BATTLEFIELD!!!!! And I'm talking about one-man-army-ing around, jumping around and drop-shotting, AND F***ING COSMETIC SKINS!!!!!!! Battlefield used to stand alone as an amazing war game, not an arcade shooter like COD turned into.... What happened DICE!?

[hidden sand]

BF has absolutely always been an arcade shooter

[hexed mango]

https://tenor.com/view/nobody-asked-6million-years-who-asked-fartic-gif-20339864

[eternal hull]

meh not really

[hexed mango]

uh, yes really.

[next onyx]

Can't own a gun here.

[obsidian elk]

This one looks like a toy

[next onyx]

Well, Something like that.

[hexed mango]

i mean other BF games had cosmetics.

[next onyx]

Funny part is that battlefield has always been partly that.

People play for the kills and objectives.

[eternal hull]

point of the game lol

[next onyx]

Pretty much.

[next onyx]

How dare somebody be good at the game doing all these tricks mid gunfight!

It's totally as if they existed for 10 to 15 years!

[hexed mango]

How dare someone slide like sliding hasnt been a feature in other BF games

[wide shore]

BF has, for the duration that I’ve played it, been an arcadey shooter. It’s less arcadey than COD in design. But it just takes a different design philosophy. Being more of a sandbox and less a lane shooter

[next onyx]

Bf5 had the best, least obnoxious slide since it didn't change speed but it lowered your hit box.

Yeah poetic.

Different perspective on the same matter.

[hexed mango]

at least 2042's slide isnt like Apex

[eternal hull]

still play bfv to this day

[next onyx]

It's sorta similar.

[hexed mango]

yeah but apex you slide for days

[next onyx]

I know that for a fact that you can slide down a hill but in 2042 that slide angle is much less generous.

[eternal hull]

meh

[hexed mango]

its similar, but i like how it feels

[hexed mango]

good argument

[next onyx]

I remember in one of the reviews I watched for Apex this guy had so much fun just sliding down a hill.

[hexed mango]

i mean it is fun

[eternal hull]

lol

[hexed mango]

sliding is fun

[next onyx]

Do wish 2042 was a bit more generous in that department with sliding.

[wide shore]

You can slide down mountains in Far Cry 6. As long as there’s an incline you will keep sliding. Very fun

[hexed mango]

who doesnt like sliding

[next onyx]

People who play slow.

[hexed mango]

ubisoft moment

[wide shore]

Shoot. I play slow, and I still slide constantly

[next onyx]

I love slide jumping since it cancels out the super sprint and puts you back into a normal sprint.

[hexed mango]

what if its like a 1 degree angle

for like a mile

[eternal hull]

if you like movement, play bloodhunt

[elder igloo]

I admit I'm just irritated there isn't a good Mil-sim game on console.... >.> Bring Tarkov, Squad or Arma to PlayStation! XD Anyone using Portal to replicate, maybe????

[wide shore]

Hell Let Loose is on console

[next onyx]

Yeah that's fair.

[eternal hull]

it hard for games like those

[next onyx]

I dunno it's just that the specific portion that complains about sliding is that same portion who hates fast movement.

[eternal hull]

their just to strong to run on smaller stuff like that. some pcs can even run those games well

cant*

[wide shore]

I mean. Don’t get me wrong, I hate getting in a gunfight only to have somebody slide past me and jump behind me 100 times. But that’s more on my console aim than anything

[eternal hull]

get good lol

[wide shore]

Sorry, I don’t play on high sensitivity

[night vessel]

https://youtu.be/GMXQmWxap9Q The pro Ravic is back at it again this time with crossbow!

[arctic grove]

i play on default sensitivity and deal with this just fine

[next onyx]

What's your sens?

[arctic grove]

on PS5

[next onyx]

I can help with a bit of flexibility too Poetic.

[arctic grove]

literally never changed any gameplay settings other than reticle color, and im still on point

[eternal hull]

you dont have to play with high sens, i play on mid and just move my arm more then just my wrist

[next onyx]

Pc's a bit different than console.

[wide shore]

I don’t say this like I deal with it constantly. My stats are still very above average

[arctic grove]

whats your k/d

[hidden sand]

Ah I figured it was an airsoft or something lol.

[wide shore]

You can check in #stats

[eternal hull]

true, forgot yall could be on console

[arctic grove]

damn you are very very good in fact

[next onyx]

Have you modified deadzones, turned on universal soldier aim and slowly increased your sens??

[arctic grove]

thats really good for console

[wide shore]

Nah. Lol. A lot of that stuff confuses me. I think I set my deadzones to 0 and just adjust normal and ADS sensitivity

[wide shore]

I appreciate it*

[velvet sand]

why was my message modded? I asking if it's normal to see folks run through the sky and then get DC'd from the server with no message

[wide shore]

I’ve had that happen to me before

[hidden sand]

I mean it has though. There's never really been a time DICE has tried to make BF "realistic". It's always been arcadey.

[wide shore]

But only when my internet shits itself

[velvet sand]

It's new for me. Shot an invulnerable player for a bit, saw others running in the air, then DC. Never had that happen before and it's kinda a buzzkill.

[wide shore]

I think it’s happened maybe 2 times to me? Not very frequent

[velvet sand]

So instead of freezing players and making them invulnerable, you just DC? I mean, I'd rather just die while I have network instability.

though it's crazy to me that the patch increased my loading times by like 4x. Even my brother somehow loads faster on a HDD than I do on my SSD.

[arctic grove]

@wide shore you are very even with your stats. Seems like you use everything

i just use the MP9 for 90% of my kills

[wide shore]

Game loads really fast on Series X. Though, still has its infamous frame rate issues on Hourglass, Manifest & Discarded though

[wide shore]

I try to be. Once I T1 something I usually move on to something else

Towards the end of BFV I started using faction based loadouts. I get bored using the same stuff over and over

[arctic grove]

idk how you got such a high K/D doing that

[wide shore]

Kill the enemy before they kill me.

[honest comet]

every gun is good if ur good player

[copper fulcrum]

It's called shooting at people with your gun

[arctic grove]

i cant switch em up like that

i stick with 1 thing or i lose a lot

[honest comet]

thats boring asf

[arctic grove]

i like it

[wide shore]

Just knowing how to play with each gun is really all it takes. General gameplay is the same. Flank as much as possible and shoot people in the back

[arctic grove]

also jets are fun

[wide shore]

I think the only time I ever used a jet, was in the beta. When somebody here said you could fly through, and above, the volumetric clouds

[arctic grove]

The jets are awesome in this game

not as good as BFV planes but still second best imo

[wide shore]

You’re the first person I’ve ever seen say that about the jets in this game

[hidden sand]

Jets are so bad in this game that I almost wonder if you're trolling

[arctic grove]

why do you think they are bad

[copper fulcrum]

They're really good at taking out vehicles

[arctic grove]

personally i thought BF3 and BF4 jets were horrible, though they were a lot easier

[copper fulcrum]

I've seen someone get 30 vehicles destroyed in a match with a jet

[hidden sand]

The flight physics are the absolute worst the series has ever had. Turning is like going through mud, it auto-adjusts when aiming so actually hitting targets is arbitrarily difficult. In general it feels like BFV planes if flying through honey.

[arctic grove]

did you not like BFV planes either?

[hidden sand]

No they were fine, but they turned slower so I used that as an example. BF4 has the best flight model in the series, imo, though.

[arctic grove]

BF4 jets were the worst imo. They had almost robotic handling characteristics.

And BFV was miles better than 4 in terms of flight

[quiet shell]

The devs have been quiet

An update is upon us

[arctic grove]

the most garbage machanic that im glad is gone is the need to throttle up and throttle down, sometimes tapping the afterburner, to keep the aircraft at the best turning speed

best sustained turn rate

[hexed mango]

they have a server side update coming soon

on monday

[quiet shell]

And the July update

[arctic grove]

2042 has it so you get the best sustained turn rate in level flight with afterburner on, which feels a lot more natural

[hidden sand]

Idk I think that increases the skill ceiling without being overbearing. Speed control is still important in BFV, but having that bonus speed from hitting the right number is nice.

[arctic grove]

i just dont like how hitting that right number is attained in BF4

and again, the handling characteristics were robotic in 4. They were by far the least dynamic

BF1 and BFV felt much much better. Especially V

[upbeat sand]

Kelidescope

[arctic grove]

2042 is just so different to 4 that a lot of BF vets dont like it

but i think its leagues above 4

[hexed mango]

[quiet shell]

Hopefully, otherwise it'll be August

[hexed mango]

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

[hidden sand]

Idk what makes you think that honestly. Rotating and turning were super clean and consistent in BF4, whilst in BFV that slowness can really mess with things.

BF1 had a really good flight model imo though.

[hexed mango]

apex smh

[upbeat sand]

Ape se-

[hexed mango]

my favorite

[marble orchid]

very funni dice, now bring back the portal maps in conquest

[hexed mango]

[arctic grove]

BF4 dogfighting was literally a boring rate fight. Whoever held that speed more consistently and achieved the right angles won the fight. Especially when flying defensive, BF4 didn't really give you many options due to the flight model. BFV on the other hand, had way more dynamic fighting due to the fact that winning wasn't always about who was maintaining the highest sustained turn rate

using scissors or a barrel roll to force the enemy to overshoot in V was way more feasible, and it made combat a lot more fun and less predictable. BF4 was like... nah, hold your speed, slowly out rate him and gun him down. Boring

[hidden sand]

Eh, only if you didn't know how to dogfight outside of and getting the right speed. What you said could be applied to BFV and 1, it wasnt just about the speed control. Specific maneuvers are important to actually get the upperhand. Honestly just sounds like you didn't know how to dogfight.

[arctic grove]

no, in BFV and BF1 it was simply a more effective move to vary up how you were flying, as opposed to BF4 where it was so dumbed down and easy. I could easily dominate anyone just by maintaining that sweetspot speed and doing vertical loops.

granted i was on PS4, but i seldom found a challenge in BF4.

[hidden sand]

Then you were just facing bad pilots. If all they did was turn in circles, of course you'd win.

[arctic grove]

in BF4 if you are in the position where you need to force an overshoot, you've lost that fight

[arctic grove]

no. What im saying about BFV is totally true when compared to BF4

BF4 felt more on rails

and what im saying is it made it easier

[hidden sand]

I think part of the problem is that there is nothing in game telling you 312 is the perfect speed. A lot of people don't know about it. I'm more inclined to believe you were facing bad pilots if, as you said, they were just going in loops.

[arctic grove]

watch all the most competitive pilots dogfight and you will see constant loops. Turn reversals. Transitioning from the horizontal to the vertical

[next onyx]

Jesus christ.

IN bf3 and 4 there was actual speed control.

[arctic grove]

but you will seldom see low speed defensive manouvering because it simply doesn't work in BF4. If you are in the position where you need to use low speed defensive manouvers, you are never going to recover and you will die

[next onyx]

Keeping that sweet spot of 313 would provide the quickest turn speed and well.... Speed.

[arctic grove]

in BFV you will see everything you see in BF4, while also seeing a lot of defensive manouvering at lower speed because the flight model was simply more dynamic

[arctic grove]

im aware

[next onyx]

I love flying in bf5 but if you thought 3 and 4 was bad, In that you pray the corsair you are fighting doesn't have an upgraded engine and improved wings.

Otherwise you will lose.

[hidden sand]

Wait are you referring to completely pulling back on the speed and almost hovering, so the other person flies in front of you because of it?

[arctic grove]

no

sure that can be included, but im referring to manouvers i stated. Scissors. barrel rolls. Anything to force the overshoot

In BF4, if someone is starting to get angles on you (getting their nose in a lead pursuit), your best option was to keep that sweetspot speed, and out rate him. Its going to be a slow process

if you try to dump your speed, thats not really the greatest move in BF4

but in BF5, it was totally feasible, and sometimes the right move

[next onyx]

I'd rather than than know my plane cannot outturn them just because of the faction I'm playing.

[arctic grove]

as it is irl

[arctic grove]

oh yeah, SU-57 really kicks the shit out of F-35 in 2042

however BFV had a nice amount of balance imo. Im not really into every side having only minor differences in turn performance like BF4

BFV had every plane very different. Personally i liked the P-51D

which is another reason combat was more dynamic

less predictable

[arctic grove]

could handle it no problemo

[wide shore]

I’m open to suggestions

[next onyx]

Try fighting against an equally skilled pilot head on in a Zero m5 when they have a Corsair.

They'll win a good 90% of the time.

[arctic grove]

i disagree

[next onyx]

If you get lucky with your rockets you can take them out head on (Or at least heavily chip them)

[arctic grove]

and again, different factions having aircraft that are very different from eachother made things more fun and more dynamic

i dont typically rely on rockets

[next onyx]

More specifically the Corsair 1c. 1A is easy to fight.

I don't either but they're good against a staller or in a head on collision.

[hidden sand]

https://youtu.be/bUzScfO8tcM

[arctic grove]

this is literally the video i was watching haha

[hidden sand]

I feel like this video does a good job at explaining what speed control can add to the table far better than I can.

[arctic grove]

i am very familiar with the speed control

[next onyx]

Try turning on Soldier uniform aiming. This'll make your ADS speed consistent with your unaimed speed. Turn your sensitivity slowly to a comfortable level (75% for me)

[arctic grove]

take a look at that video, and watch how they are fighting

this is exactly what i am talking about. Not once did you see them use the kind of low speed defensive tactics that are possible in BFV, because BF4 planes fly more like they are on rails

it proves my point

[wide shore]

I’ll try it. But I kinda like having my ADS speed much slower than my turn speed

[arctic grove]

now if you prefer your arcade air combat to be a little bit more straight forward and predictable, i understand that

thats personal preference

but there is no denying that BFV had the more dynamic air combat

[next onyx]

Yeah that's fair since ADS can be a bit fucky Poetic.

[hidden sand]

I don't even pilot that much, and I absolutely suck at dogfighting in BF4, but I still feel like you're getting more out of a perfect number. But regardless, I'd be fine with jets in 2042 if they at least performed the way BF1 planes did.

[next onyx]

I tried flying on bf1 and wtf is that flight model.

The camera is weird and the turning is weird like eww.

[night vessel]

https://www.reddit.com/r/battlefield2042/comments/vjmiho/emps_should_disable_or_slightly_nullify_a/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3
This is a cool idea for the EMP nades to have

[hidden sand]

Haha you really don't like people calling your opinions subjective, American.

[arctic grove]

exactly. its the fact that you are getting more out of a perfect number (313) that makes it so boring for me. BF4 air combat is so predictable and one note.

[hidden sand]

What do you mean exactly?

[arctic grove]

i mean i literally just said its up to personal preference. Im not saying calling BF4 straigtforward and predictable as an insult. You misunderstand me

[hidden sand]

I'm referring to this.

Which is still subjective.

[arctic grove]

not really man. Again, look at that video you just linked. These guys were constantly maintaining the sweetspot speed while performing turns. They often transitioned from vertical to horizontal turns, and also did turn reversals. There was no low speed defensive fighting, because it'll get you killed in BF4

dynamic is not necessarily a good thing in everyone's view. Me saying BFV is more dynamic is not saying its better. Its better from my point of view, but clearly thats not how you like your flying

like waygyanba pointed out how assymetrical dogfighting can be in BFV because some planes are better than others by a good margin. That makes combat more dynamic, but its not a good thing in his eyes. I like it, but to each his own

[hidden sand]

I prefer it be dynamic, which I believe Bf4 does better in. You do you though, it's all preference in the end.

[arctic grove]

how do you define dynamic

because based on the video you showed, and the way i described dogfighting in BF4 (which is entirely consistent with the video) its not really that dynamic.

You maintain a speed, and you do what you need to do to get the shot.

[next onyx]

I dunno. If you spend 500 hours on one game you'll notice how different it is on another game.

That's how I can describe it.

[hidden sand]

I see lol.

[arctic grove]

you know whats nice on BF1?

the damage model lol

same for BFv

thats another thing i love about those games

[hidden sand]

Dmg models were done a lot better in BFV and 1.

[arctic grove]

very much agreed

[hidden sand]

Angling + Being able to disable specific parts on tanks >>>> angling and mobility kills

[arctic grove]

i dont think such a damage model would translate well to a modern jet game though tbh

because a .50 cal on a P-51 will fuck you up, punch holes in your wing, do all kinds of shit

but you can keep going. You'll be hurt, but you can keep going

a 25mm cannon will vaporize a jet lol.

[next onyx]

I like how on 5 if you're actually accurate you can turn planes into scrap.

But that's the same with any game.

It's just that on 5 you're punished more for missing.

[arctic grove]

making me wanna redownload that game just to fly

[next onyx]

Due to the heat build up of the HMG's.

Nvm using 6x HMG's.

Which by the way.

After flying in Eruope for a few weeks and going back to the pacific, Those planes fucking SHRED.

[arctic grove]

yeahhhh

m2 was a great gun.

2042 really is a step down from V in terms of flying

[hidden sand]

Tanking too.

But one thing about BFV I really miss is the original color palette Hamada had.

I have yet to find the video that shows it off again though.

It was where they were showing a WIP version of the staghound.

[next onyx]

I don't like tanks anymore.

I got 9k with the panzer iv and just stopped.

I'd go back to get 10k but I'm done with that game.

[hidden sand]

In BFV or BF as a whole?

[next onyx]

Bf5.

Tank attrition is shit.

I love not having the ability to repair to full and to hog supply points as if it's some IV drip.

Planes it's better cause look you can just cut some shortcut and not be fired on.

Your only limitation in a plane is the hill.

[hidden sand]

Yeah I agree. It takes you so damn far away from the actual fight, and by the time you get back, it's either an empty objective or the sector has been cleared. It also incentivized staying back with tanks, even if you were generally okay to be aggressive.

[dire quest]

Why can't we get out mid flight and repair planes?

[hidden sand]

Honestly plane attrition was kind of redundant because it was essentially a cooldown timer.

Ontop of another cooldown.

Might as well just have it be infinite with a longer cooldown if the idea is to keep planes from constantly bashing on tanks and infantry.

[dire quest]

Why is the condor so op in rush?

Why is the condor so op in the first place?

[next onyx]

50mm.

[dire quest]

Ah

Hardcore it's a nightmare

[next onyx]

The ammo part was fine. Not the health part really.

[hidden sand]

Because DICE thought giving everything grenade launchers, 30mms, 50mms, would make up for the fact there were only 3 ground attack vehicles.

And 2 helis and 2 jets.

But now theres 4 helis at least.

[next onyx]

You saw that clip with the grenade launcher didn't you suika.

On the hind.

[dire quest]

Good thing we got MTV's tho

[next onyx]

The gl is more balanced than some anti all 50mm.

[hidden sand]

It was absolutely rotten but at least it requires you get close and actually aim somewhat.

[next onyx]

Yeah.

I was fighting the resupply too.

It's why I held back at the end.

Very easy to over sample.

[hidden sand]

How would you feel about a smoke grenade launcher being a replacement for the 50mm? Like 3 rounds with a solid cooldown.

[next onyx]

Uhhhh nah.

[dire quest]

Does the smoke deal explosive damage?

Why is there no gas grenade yet? Causes damage while in the cloud, or however gas grenades work in games

[hidden sand]

Sheesh I would take gas grenades over the scatter grenade, that's for sure.

At least with that area denial throwable you could counter it by hipfiring.

[dire quest]

Scatter grenade is guaranteed free kill tho

[lyric solar]

Anyone just get booted?

[hidden sand]

Yeah which is part of what makes it so annoying. Running away from it essentially doesn't help you unless you're already distanced from it.

[pale grail]

I’m not the only one?

[dire quest]

Dude just reversed and did nothing lol

[hidden sand]

Because you can't do anything. There are no counters to air vehicles attacking you.

[dire quest]

Soflam?

[copper fulcrum]

Maybe stop driving in the same direction the chopper is flying

[next onyx]

Keep the 50mm. Make it AT only. Maybe have the grenade launcher shoot out he smoke every 6 grenades.

[arctic grove]

we need air superiority

[next onyx]

What does it matter when you can't do anything about it anyways.

[hidden sand]

Sure, but then they can just... Turn. You can't counter it lol.

[copper fulcrum]

He was practically square dancing with the chopper lol

[dire quest]

Have 1 squadmate run soflam the other 2 run stinger

Ez

[next onyx]

The chopper is why the wildcat will stay superior.

[copper fulcrum]

What's the point on running a Soflam and Stinger, run the M5 instead

[hidden sand]

I don't think it should be AT personally, there's already enough of that in the game honestly. Agreed with the every 6 grenades though.

[next onyx]

Cause at least the wildcat can aim up.

[dire quest]

Even the ai in the wildcat are op

[next onyx]

Honestly 50mm just being at means it'll be less used as a whole lmao.

@hidden sand

[hidden sand]

Maybe, it's just even if it did 10-15 dmg, with all of the other things there are it adds up.

[safe pike]

Hello! i need help im getting and error code while trying launch my game from origin/Epic games

If we can at least get APS for now, it would be great.

Amour angling would be the most ideal next step.

aps

Honestly APS wouldn't really help I just realized. The maps are one of the biggest reasons why they're so bad, too.

[white geyser]

You know, if anyone remember the bomber plane back in BF4 and how it sucks it can't be controlled, if they bring back this bomber plane (B-52) they need to fix their mistake from BF4 bomber plane and let us control the B-52 bomber, also make some changes to make it look 2042 and look upgraded too.

[hexed mango]

ancient vehicle moment

i think the bomber plane in Portal 1942 is pretty good

they should make a B-52 off of that

or, even better, make a B-2 bomber :)

[worn whale]

yeah no, AC-130 is enough in BF3-4

it'd be cool for commander option but that doesn't exist anymore

[white geyser]

If they did add it in this game, deal with it, learn how to use it or take it down like every other vehicles

[worn whale]

"yeah lets add more vehicles in the game like we totally don't have a Vehicle balance issue going on Atm"

[cosmic island]

@white geyser I remember when you could fly that in Desert Combat Mod for BF 1942! Good times. 😓

[void whale]

i really dont like how we are ablew to change our atttachments mid fire fights

it doesnt make sense

[nova notch]

It allows to change optics due to how far or close enemies are and allows you to change attachments right there on the spot on how you plan to fight

[maiden jetty]

It makes sense ish

It just shpuld take a bit more time

[void whale]

yes there should be like a shop outlet or shed

[nova notch]

I’m pretty sure my reason is the way it is there for

If they were to make a shed your better off redeploying and changing attachments there

[arctic grove]

no we need a heavy strike fighter instead

bomber is just easy meat for helicopters tbh

we need an SU-34 and an F-15EX

[tame cobalt]

don't care

It's fun so it stays

Cope

[white geyser]

We got enough Jets I think, also I just hate Jets players pissing off other players and calling them cheaters for no reason, also I think you missed my point, upgrade the bombers just add more firepower that can defend itself from choppers

[void whale]

lol

[tame cobalt]

Lol no

Plus system is dope, nice new addition to the arcadey gameplay of battlefield

If u want things that make sense you're in the wrong franchise

[white geyser]

@arctic grove If you play in the portal, you'll see how many custom matchup and people disable the Jets

[nova notch]

Wasn’t the bomber the ac 10?

[white geyser]

Not quite

[arctic grove]

lol what

we do not have enough jets.

[arctic grove]

there is no amount of firepower that will make them viable against choppers. THis is the myth of the tailgunner. They are simply not that effective.

a bomber is also not particularly effective. A heavy attack aircraft would be far more appropriate for this game

[next onyx]

Increase the flight ceiling just for jets easy.

[white geyser]

Bro have you heard of machine guns? if they attach it on the bomber that can use against choppers, where are they gonna attach it? on the bottom part or on top?

[next onyx]

Give jets bombs and or rocket pods too.

[arctic grove]

based as well @next onyx

[next onyx]

You can deal with choppers better by reducing their flight ceiling but jets still having a decent amount.

[arctic grove]

your thinking on the matter is rather simplistic. Again, i said "myth of the tailgunner". This heavily implies i know that you are saying to add machine guns. THis will not suffice in adequately protecting the bomber

[white geyser]

Whatever

[arctic grove]

why even reply with that lmao

[white geyser]

No cares about what you just said, if they want to add something on the vehicle to protect itself deal with it, sounds like you're making the vehicles less of a threat and not enough firepower to make it a threat

[arctic grove]

pilots quickly adapt, as they did in BF1 and BFV. Seldom do people tailguns or machine gun turrets on aircraft successfully deter any competent pilots, and I would argue helicopters are way harder to hit than any jet due to the profile of the vehicle. A far better option would be a 2 seat strike jet with bombs and other air to ground weapons. It can actually run away from helis and defend itself instead of be a bullet sponge. Its better to have a vehicle that doesn't need 10 competent gunners to be viable. We have enough giant flying vehicles with multiple gun turrets on them. Condor and the Hind helicopter.

[arctic grove]

you also say we got enough jets? How so, we now have 4 different classes of helicopters, but a single class of jet? Yeah no way.

Also the B-52 is specifically not a fit for 2042 thematically. it makes no sense here

[white geyser]

Who cares, no one

[arctic grove]

i do

and none of what you suggest has any more leverage than what i say. Especially given how bad your arguments are

[white geyser]

No you don't bitch

[arctic grove]

ohhhh its a 12 year old.

why do parents let their kids use discord...

[white geyser]

Now you're making yourself a bad argument, for being denial

@arctic grove IDK what's in your mind, but let me tell you something whatever it is, battlefield is not meant to be realistic if that's what you're thinking.

[arctic grove]

tell mum you need an english tutor.

[white geyser]

Go tell your mom you're not a real American, English tutor? LMAO!!!! don't make me laugh even harder you god damn faker!.

[arctic grove]

i did not say it should be realistic. Theme and realism is not the same thing

[arctic grove]

scathing

why is this server not 18+ lmao

[white geyser]

There are people who are older than 18 genius

[arctic grove]

[white geyser]

It's not about what you just said, it's about giving what the fans what they want and what they missed the most in the previous battlefield game that was there in the game.

[ocean isle]

Can they really set attack heli for 2/2 man I hate this game

im so piss cuz I didn’t fly heli for pass day of conquest

[arctic grove]

tbh at this point i wonder if there are even any alive franchises which are about realistic FPS lol

oh right, tarkov probably, idk if it counts as a franchise though

[hexed mango]

nice

[hexed mango]

you know, you could go outside. touch some grass, join the military, if you wanted a realistic experience.

[glossy laurel]

Realism doesn't matter, enjoy the game for what they've made it. In the case for BF2042 you can't enjoy it for how they've made it. But for other games you can try

[arctic grove]

in this case there wouldn't be a second try in case of failing, though

[silk surge]

That sounds pretty realistic to me.

[arctic grove]

a bit too realistic

[tropic geyser]

Arma, Squad, Ready or Not

[hexed mango]

you asked for it

[tropic geyser]

Squad is probably the most accessible for Battlefield fans

Arma requires you to join a whole community to get the full experience, but is better if you wanna go hard into the milsim style games

And Ready or Not while in it's early access infancy atm is aiming to be a more realistic portrayal to how swat teams work

[hidden sand]

Arma is not as hardcore as it used to be though I have to say

[tropic geyser]

Yeah

There are other games aside from those ones as well, Beyond the Wire and Post Scriptum are made by the Squad developers but go for WWI and WWII era's respectively

[white geyser]

https://tenor.com/view/angel-flight-c130-flare-gif-15522836

[tropic geyser]

And of course there's insurgency but idk how well that series is doing atm

[white geyser]

I wish they add the gunship plane in 2042, since it last appeared in BF4. Look we have the new gunship plane called the ghost rider gunship and since they build a new one, ghost rider gunship plane in 2042? probably

[tame cobalt]

2042 will go free to play next june, announcement during an e3 type event. Lock it in

[tropic geyser]

Bruh if it does I'm gonna laugh

[noble scaffold]

need some better ground transport vehicles, something that’s actually designed to carry a large number of troops

[tropic geyser]

I just bought the game in the most recent sale

[little epoch]

looks like an angel made up of smoke

IDK if they can rework the game, add the AA M-shorad for the US and the wildcat will be on the RU side

[tropic geyser]

So next month

[noble scaffold]

ok

[tame cobalt]

[noble scaffold]

i’d expect more than just freebies, a substantial amount of freebies, worth as much as your buy the game for

lesss go so ima play my first game it better be good

[tame cobalt]

Nothing will be taken from you. The game would just have (hopefully) a playerbase revival

I'm very much looking forward to the day 2042 is ready to go f2p, and i bought gold edition full price

My prediction is next june it goes f2p, with a marketing push during E3, showing people how the game is good now, and an announcement of extended support

That's my hope

It's either that, or the game just dies after season 4 and we get nothing till the next game releases 2 years later

Don't know how the second option would benefit people who bought the game more, but alright.

[silk surge]

It's strange that the people who are obsessed with destruction are silent about Exposure. There are base-game AOW maps that have more destruction than Exposure.

[tame cobalt]

Lel

[silk surge]

I highly doubt that 2042 will ever be fully f2p. It will probably be added to the gamepass (and probably EA PLAY) and maybe become a free monthly PS+ game like BFV became at one point, but that's about it I think.

[tame cobalt]

rip 2042 then

[full burrow]

can we not have bf1 and bfv maps?

[tough parrot]

why rip its not that its such a bad game wright??

[tiny imp]

Is f2p confirmed yet?

[sonic nova]

Has anyone else been using the ntw with the 1.5x scope?
I've been trying that lately and it's like a shotgun with more range

[uncut bay]

i was hoping the landslide would be some sort of levolution event, though given the time constraints i can understand why they wouldn't do that. I could easily see the map working very well in both states, and they might not even have had to move objectives around as it could just serve to create new openings into B, C, and D

[lucid pasture]

It absolutely would be

We bought the game expecting things that weren’t there

And console players can’t even refund

[uncut bay]

console refund policies largely have nothing to do with dice and ea, so those aren't very relevant

send letters to sony if you're got issues with their incredibly anti-consumer policies

[lucid pasture]

Neither do steam refund policies I think

[uncut bay]

correct, but steam's is far more generous

[lucid pasture]

At least Sony gave me what I wanted when I payed for their console

Payed 60$ to not even be able to play the game

[uncut bay]

but nah i don't think it would be a middle finger to people who bought the game in full if it went f2p after a year or so. It's like complaining that a game went on sale and that you should get a refund for the money you paid

just selfish and entitled behavior

[lucid pasture]

I hope they improve it at least

[robust ember]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[uncut bay]

they are and will continue to do so

[lucid pasture]

Its selfish behavior from a company to lie and underperform

[uncut bay]

it's just capitalism

the community had every reason to not buy the game immediately, there really isn't much to be said

[lucid pasture]

Plenty of good games around, its just dice underperforming again and again and again

Worse than that empty promises

I dont mind paying for what I know about

But to freaking lie and promise shit and then mot deliver

[uncut bay]

they underperform and yet people keep buying their games. I wonder how those two correlate

[lucid pasture]

Pathetic

[lucid pasture]

Because they promise shit and don’t deliver

[uncut bay]

that doesn't make sense

the dedicated community who cares about the franchise has been with it for years, we're all very aware of how bad battlefield games are on release

yet people continue to preorder based on cinematics and empty promises, then complain when the game isn't what they expected

there isn't anybody to blame but themselves

[lucid pasture]

This is beyond bad at relase for bugs and hit reg issues, the game at its core sucks, maps are terrible, no cover, but to be fair the new map is pretty nice I hope they build on that.

Also no server browser is a kick in the nuts for any player outside of NA and EU

[uncut bay]

i'm aware

[still vault]

Well, good to see you got that out of your system

here's a penguin

[pine roost]

This is the first game I’ve pre ordered in years, the last one was in 2016... so I was more hyped than I should have been. Boy did that hype crash and burn

[raven smelt]

Lesson learned to not pre order then

[uncut bay]

learn the lesson again and don't pre order

pre ordering does nothing in the age of digital media

at most you'll get some goodies that'll be forgotten within a month

[grizzled whale]

Well you can pre order

After alpha/beta

But when the alpha and beta were almost identical while months apart, yeah dont

[lime wharf]

What's the best way to do the damage to vehicles mission?

[still vault]

place 3 mines, then sfar with anti vehicle grenade attachment and a rocket of some kind

[lime wharf]

I can either use the mines or the rocket though

[still vault]

You can place 3 mines, then die and use rockets until someone drives into the mines or they are otherwise destroyed

[lime wharf]

the more you know, thank u

[lucid pasture]

Silence corporate

[still vault]

Corporate, where?

[still vault]

Think you need to read #info

[lucid pasture]

I must have mistaken you for the community team

[tame cobalt]

Don't understand how can say the launch maps have no cover then say exposure is good

Exposure has big open areas just like all the others

[lucid pasture]

I liked it, theres a ton of rocks everywhere to hide behind, a lot of verticality, and the objectives on the outskirts have a lot of cover and buildings

I hid in this building and took out wave after wave of attackers and it was fun, granted most of them were ai unfortunately

[tame cobalt]

Lol

[still vault]

I've grown to really like Exposure. Tight infantry combat, then you can go outside and have combat around some great bases, plenty of vehicles like ATVs to get around. No issue here.

[tame cobalt]

The others have that as well
Except the mini metro in the middle

And the annoying slopes

[arctic grove]

I guess BF2042 devs prepared for having very low amount of players and made cross-play and AI only mostly for that reason lol

[tame cobalt]

No

[arctic grove]

ik that there are enough players with crossplay on but like

i've seen a ton of people complain about almost no one playing with crossplay off

[tame cobalt]

Crossplay is a standard feature in mp games. AI is something they've been wanting to add since bf1

[next onyx]

That's because crossplay isn't disabled by default.

[tame cobalt]

Game would be unplayable in my region without crossplay

So I'm happy

[visual horizon]

Why would you turn off crossplay anyway? It wouldn't make a noticeable difference to your games.

[arctic grove]

a ton of people seem to complain that PC players always dominate over consoles

[visual horizon]

maybe, but i bet games without crossplay are filled with console sweats anyway

[arctic grove]

well that's probably better than games filled with PC "sweats" and console "sweats" but idk

[tame cobalt]

Skill issue moment

Just watch broken machine dominate entire lobbies with his controller

[mossy badge]

😂🤣

[slim quiver]

Exposure is the only good map sadly

So basically it’s now kinda boring

You spam the same map over and over and over because it’s the only thing that feels good

And then it gets boring after like 10-15 hours

Chopper got reckd by Angel, pilot probably thought it was just another easy kill lol

[slim quiver]

I do like when air mains get clapped

Since helicopters are broken

And anyone defending the Hind, the Condor or stealth choppers is a certified vehicle main

Also the nightbird is still broken

[uncut bay]

rao + stinger

takes a while but it's basically free damage

[full burrow]

how many maps are in the flashback conquest rotation? feels like so few

[arctic grove]

if i have an issues/suggestions where should i post?

[naive sandal]

Rao + Angel = perfect AA buddies

Yup

These maps are amazing wish I played a 😫

[uncut bay]

just anything without air vehicles

or vehicles in general

played rush and saw that it said no vehicles

jumped in and the team kept getting massacred by a 50mm on a jeep

like fuck off dude

[slim quiver]

yes because they over did it with vehicles in this game

everyone laughed when i said this game is just a vehicle player playground

and ofc they never want the ride to end because they need to stat pad as much as possible

[uncut bay]

no miki you don't get it, vehicles need to be overpowered, they're op in real life, what you want one player to take out all the enemy's vehicles? It's perfectly balanced!

[slim quiver]

the funny part is people actually say this

"vehicles should be overpowered!"

[uncut bay]

yeah i wish i could say i was joking

genuine argument

[slim quiver]

but heres the thing. Why is it that I need to have skill to blow up a vehicle when playing infantry is already the most risky role in the game, but a vehicle doesnt need any skill to camp at a distance and farm infantry

[topaz field]

Okay ma'am

https://battlefield.fandom.com/wiki/Active_Protection

Tanks need this badly lol

[slim quiver]

no they dont need active protection

[topaz field]

You gotta be faster man. Honestly the problem is no gadget lock 😫

Dice needs to actually do classes

[slim quiver]

the last thing we need is vehicles getting more help

[topaz field]

Rock paper scissors team play

I have no issue taking out those stupid helis

[hexed mango]

i maybe didnt realize it
but i stayed up all night
its almost 6am now

[topaz field]

Rao hack push them back

[topaz field]

Yeah that's nothing I work 1am to 9am for my job

[hexed mango]

i havent closed my eyes in 24 hours

ok someone give me an idea quick

[still vault]

sleep

[hexed mango]

yeah thats a good one

counterpoint, no

[still vault]

Ok, I hear if you look at the inside of your eyelids for several hours that you will see something amazing. Might want to try that.

[hexed mango]

Sounds interesting, maybe my eyes will begin to rapidly move and i will see images

[still vault]

Maybe it will be ferrets driving tanks on Discord

[slim quiver]

REM

[grizzled whale]

now the question is

[hexed mango]

yes indeed

[grizzled whale]

are thost himan sized ferrets, or a ferret sized tank

[hexed mango]

sounds hot ngl

[slim quiver]

Yeah it’s stupid

You see helicopter pilots going 120 and 2

[hidden latch]

The waffen ss

[grizzled whale]

thats because chopper players all poses little skill

they dont win anything

[still vault]

Yeah lets not talk about stuff like that on here.

[grizzled whale]

they only win the disappointment from their parents

[hidden latch]

ok

[grizzled whale]

oh i know kills matter

but pretending you are good at the game when you only use choppers

thats a no

[slim quiver]

All helictoper mains do is farm kills

[grizzled whale]

it takes no skill to use a chopper

and ofcourse, you as a chopper player act like it does

and neither takes skill

[still vault]

Isn't farming kills what all are trying to do? Take bases, win games, farm kills.

That what I do when playing infantry too.

[grizzled whale]

yes but most players dont like to use super overpowered vehicles to do so

and pretending to be good at the game when all you use is overpowered shit to pray on infantry that isnt able to do much against you unless you have a proper loadout is just sad

it does for chopper sweats

when i get 30+ vehicles destroyed with a wildcat THAT gives me pleasure

[still vault]

Sounds like the typical vehicle heavy Battlefield rock paper scissor gameplay that has been a Battlefield stable for 20+ years

[grizzled whale]

if you are a chopper player that can keep the skies clear the whole match you can claim you are good at the game

not when praying on infantry

[full burrow]

flashback conquest 64 is nice

[grizzled whale]

tell me you havent played the game without actually telling me

[full burrow]

but it needs more maps

[shy latch]

that's why we'll have for sure 2 maps reworked, even tho I'll hope for at least other 2

[full burrow]

just use bf4/bf1 maps

fuck immersion, id rather play on good bf1 maps that looks out of place

[shell ermine]

Can't find a full match on a Saturday morning US, lmao, knew people wouldn't stick around long.

One okay map and one new gun isn't enough to bring people back

[grizzled whale]

still 9k people on steam

so L

[full burrow]

if you increase performance a lot of pc players could play

[still vault]

more info linked to in #game-news

[grizzled whale]

if you increase your pc you could play

[shy latch]

yes it's official an you can see on the roadmap (should be under #game-news if I'm not wrong, otherwise just google it), they are Kaleidoscope and Renewal, the first will be released one day during S1 and the second one during (or maybe at the beginning) of S2
