battlefield-2042

[prisma hazel]

the last battlefield i played was 3

and i loved that game

[jaunty fjord]

Season 1 only has 1 playable map, only 2 guns, 2 new vehicles, oh god

[prisma hazel]

i played my 10 hours trail i get with ea play and i so far love the game is it not worth buying?

[prisma hazel]

only?

[queen grove]

It's a good game as is

[prisma hazel]

1 new map and 2 new guns every 3 months sounds good how is that bad

[queen grove]

Yeah but overall the game has enough there to be good

Good experience overall, so surprised after all the smack talk about it

[jaunty fjord]

Because the only good map to play is this new map

[queen grove]

Lol that's what I'm saying...like it's been a great experience other than the menu issue (everything screwed up when I changed to alternate controls)

But I think todays update fixed that

[prisma hazel]

ive liked 5/7 of the maps i played on so far

[queen grove]

Not true I've been having fun tonight playing whatever they throw at us

Need to get good at driving though

[prisma hazel]

and the only reason i disliked one was because there spawn was on a high ground which imo gave them a advantage

[queen grove]

Anyone that sucks at driving would struggle with 2042

[jaunty fjord]

I really feel like a piece of shit when playing other maps except expire

[lavish hawk]

I wish there was dirt bikes though

[queen grove]

That would be sick, maybe a future season

[lavish hawk]

🤞 its been a while we had them in bf3 so was hoping portal bf3 maps would have had some

[jaunty fjord]

The underlying architecture of 2042 itself is based on PUBG, and it cannot be compared with the previous generation.

[lavish hawk]

[queen grove]

BF3 was amazing

[calm bison]

Uhh how?

[prisma hazel]

can someone actually give me a list of things they dont like about bf 2042

[calm bison]

Where does PUBG relate to 2042

[prisma hazel]

bcs i like bf 5 and bf 3 so

[jaunty fjord]

2042's action system is not even as smooth as bfv. I really don't know why they didn't use the previous generation's action system and only did so-called cod-style tactical sprints and mirror changes.

[queen grove]

Just about to jump into breakthrough on the map Manifest... should be awesome

[lavish hawk]

Yes I wish we could play it on psn i give my ps3 away so not played it for years

[olive holly]

fix for not being able to see my character model/gun in game?

[queen grove]

Server browser for the regular game modes would be gooft

[prisma hazel]

my fav bf3 map is in bf 2042

[prisma hazel]

i dont even like regular game mode tbh

[jaunty fjord]

Just look at the hazard zone they pushed before and know that this thing itself is built for the hazard zone

[prisma hazel]

i like the no vehicles mode better

[calm bison]

Ok but Hazard Zone isn’t a battle royale?

It’s a knockoff Escape from Tarkov

[lavish hawk]

true and squad management

[queen grove]

Exactly

[jaunty fjord]

yes a tarkov-like pattern

[olive holly]

fix for not being able to see my character model/gun in game?

[queen grove]

I wonder if they are working on it

[lavish hawk]

caspian?

[jaunty fjord]

But they didn't do it well

[prisma hazel]

one on a dock with a crane

and a train on top

with some boats on the side

[queen grove]

It's funny that these are the real criticisms and it's never what you hear....BF 2042 is a good game

For some reason people liked to bad talk it though

[calm bison]

Noshahr Canals

[lavish hawk]

noise hair canals

[prisma hazel]

yea

thats like my favorite map out of the now 3 battlefields i have ever played

better then most cod maps aswell

[calm bison]

Add Damavand Peak DICE

[olive holly]

fix for not being able to see my character model/gun in game?

[deep meadow]

Mine too

[jaunty fjord]

The specialist system should only belong to hazard zone but dice moved it to everywhere

[lavish hawk]

Yeh canals was a great map imo the amtrax was a great vehicle on that map

[deep meadow]

Yah

[prisma hazel]

so uh

before i buy the game is it worth it?

[jaunty fjord]

They can't even make better maps than bf3, bf4

[prisma hazel]

i liked the map u play in the sort of tutorial the game gives you

[jaunty fjord]

For me, expire is just reaching the pass line

[lavish hawk]

I am not sure of that i did not use the tutorial

[prisma hazel]

its like

a sandy new york

with buildings falling over

[olive holly]

fix for not being able to see my character model/gun in game?

ffs

[lavish hawk]

Oh with the stadium is it

[prisma hazel]

no stadium

but it might have been a smaller version of the map sense it was the tutorial

there was only points a,b,c so

[copper fulcrum]

Hourglass

[lavish hawk]

I have not played bf2042 enough yet so i dont know all the names of the maps yet

[olive holly]

fix for not being able to see my character model/gun in game?

[lavish hawk]

what platform are you on

[olive holly]

pc

[lavish hawk]

did you check youtube? might be a video tips there

[olive holly]

searches yeilded results for missing loadout bug, no dice (sigh)

[lavish hawk]

I am on ps5 so dont get that bug

[lavish hawk]

I am sure i have seen something on it

There was a workaround i am sure

[lavish hawk]

check out dannyonpc channel

[olive holly]

reboot seems to fix it

this fucking game man

cant just be ... normal

[lavish hawk]

battlefield physic's

[olive holly]

it would help if anyone who knew how to use frostbite still worked at DICE

[lavish hawk]

Ha yeah

[hexed mango]

sam isnt gonna like that

[deep meadow]

Hey battlefield is coming soon on Android and iOS

[hexed mango]

when

[deep meadow]

Soon

[hexed mango]

no when did i ask

[lavish hawk]

Comming soon TM

[olive holly]

its their diablo immortal

cash grab

[deep meadow]

Yah

Its coming soon

[tranquil turtle]

the a10 is cracked af

[deep meadow]

[hexed mango]

even tho its Attack, it should be in Air Superiority

[deep meadow]

[tranquil turtle]

just fly out of the combat zone, do a loop-de-loop, turn on air brakes then you can destroy almost any vehicle with that 30mm

[hexed mango]

yep

air breaks = mega sex

[deep meadow]

Yah

[tranquil turtle]

I tested it in my portal mode (effectively turned ground superiority into breakthrough) and got like 80 kills

too bad it wouldn't show me how many vehicles I destroyed

[deep meadow]

Yah

[hexed mango]

does ground sup have A-10

[tranquil turtle]

ground superiority has whatever vehicles you add to it

you can do 21 mavs vs 21 vodniks if you wanted

or you can turn off vehicles completely and get infantry conquest + rule editor

my mode might need some balancing though

[white geyser]

Haven't tried the update they gave us for the portal, better make one.

[queen grove]

Hourglass is the map I don't really like

[lavish hawk]

me either

[hexed mango]

i finally got an ethernet cord for my pc at my dad's house. but he doesnt want me laying it through the house so we have to go into the crawlspace, but neither of us want to
(ive sent like 20 videos of me lagging my ass off), but the lag was completely gone with ethernet (which is what i have at my mom's house)

[replied message is of me lagging]

[lavish hawk]

The problem i have Is a lack of ability to game with more than 3 friends as once player 5 shows up its pretty awkward as if you split in to two squads next round you all get split up to a point i don't play much anymore

[hexed mango]

@edgy oriole

[lavish hawk]

you could fish the cable through? possibly

[hexed mango]

yeah, but it would be quite hard, the 100 year old crawlspace has a lot of obstructions, and it isnt really a clear path to my room from the router

[digital portal]

I found solution of Mouse input lag shit stuff

The problem was just one little origin INi file

[hexed mango]

im just glad i found out that ethernet solved all my lag issues, meaning i could actually play the game during my week at my dad's house

[lavish hawk]

could you go up to the roof space then down in to your room

[hexed mango]

for now, until the cord is setup, i will be playing cyberpunk

[tall orbit]

https://gagadget.com/en/games/143531-battlefield-2042-has-overtaken-halo-infinite-online-on-steam/

[hexed mango]

tru but there is no attic, making it hard

[digital portal]

Pottysimulator 20777

[hexed mango]

good

[hexed mango]

game is so fucking fun

[lavish hawk]

powerline?

[hexed mango]

crawlspace

• walls

[digital portal]

Do pakour

[lavish hawk]

have you tried a power line adapter

[copper fulcrum]

an ini file?

[white geyser]

Alright, I created ground superiority right now in the portal, but I'll check it tomorrow to see how it goes

[digital portal]

Yes

IGO64.ini

Try delete that

[upbeat sand]

Does wartapes make the music more quiet?

[hexed mango]

cant say i have

[copper fulcrum]

You could just lower the music volume.

[unborn herald]

don’t

rename it

it still works

instead of deleting

[upbeat sand]

Nono I want louder

Just wondering

[pine wagon]

Just got visual artifacting on Series X. Orbital, during a tornado; affected my entire screen with lines and squares. Is it just me? Is my Series X GPU going out?

[lavish hawk]

worth looking into A power line is a plug that you plug in the ethernet cable and another plug in the room you want the signal that runs through the power cables they are not too expensive but work better than a wifi extender imo

[hexed mango]

war tapes doesnt change music, only ingame sounds like gunshots, explosions, etc

[digital portal]

I did rename it first and didnt work like now

[unborn herald]

bruh it works for me

[hexed mango]

oh yeah i have that at my other house, a plug for the ethernet right? where you put the cat cable in and then connect to the pc

[unborn herald]

I just named it to IGO64_disabled

[lavish hawk]

yeah

[hexed mango]

that would work, it would just be difficult with the situation of this house, thats all

[unborn herald]

also

that disables origin

[digital portal]

Hmmm well i will just stick it like now

[unborn herald]

meaning you can’t get windowed bug anymore

[upbeat sand]

Origin at it again

[hexed mango]

like origin ingame? tell me more

[lavish hawk]

ok

[unborn herald]

yes lmao

[upbeat sand]

Origin still better than epic games launcher

[digital portal]

I dont having any problem right now

[hexed mango]

what did you do

[upbeat sand]

Quote me on that

[hexed mango]

i need to prevent origin ingame from opening when i launch via steam

if thats possible

[unborn herald]

delete igo64

in origin file

[hexed mango]

cause even though my origin setting has it off, it still launches

[digital portal]

I just want steam overray not shitty origin

[hexed mango]

in Origin's program files?

[unborn herald]

the file is located in your c disk

yes

[hexed mango]

this

[unborn herald]

igo64 should be there

[digital portal]

Yes

[unborn herald]

yes

[digital portal]

That one

[unborn herald]

delete it or rename it

your choice

[hexed mango]

ok done

thanks

[digital portal]

Delete pill rename pill

I just thought morphius from matrix

[pine wagon]

Just got visual artifacting on Series X. Orbital, during a tornado; affected my entire screen with lines and squares. Is it just me? Is my Series X GPU going out?

[hexed mango]

https://tenor.com/3XyR.gif

[digital portal]

Baldy boi

[unborn herald]

it’s actually mercy we can disable origin

what a crappy app

never been this complicated

[digital portal]

I cant believe how did i use thAt shitty platform since 2014

They could sell more BF3 copies at 2011 with steam

What a dumb act

[unborn herald]

idk why companies are just trying to look for ways to complicate things

[hexed mango]

ikr

[unborn herald]

ever since Ubisoft moved to epic games, never bought anything new from them

[hexed mango]

tbh i like the EA Desktop app purely because it looks nicer than origin lmao

[digital portal]

What is ea desktop app

I never heard that

[unborn herald]

EA play

[digital portal]

Uhhhh

[unborn herald]

it’s basically origin but

not buggy

[plucky pebble]

origin looks the same as it was 10 years ago

[digital portal]

Same as steam os?

[unborn herald]

no

it’s still origin but not buggy and looks nicer

[digital portal]

Gotta try that when i got back home

[hexed mango]

cause origin is shitty.

atleast EA Desktop looks nice

[digital portal]

Design issue

[copper fulcrum]

Still the same thing though

[digital portal]

Well then

Thats game issue

[hexed mango]

skill issue

[digital portal]

Mate.

[copper fulcrum]

Absolute skill issue

yer dun

[digital portal]

[stark owl]

Ummm so I just noticed something while playing air superiority but did they add a black out affect when your turning your jet at high speeds to simulate the Gs?

[copper fulcrum]

Been in since the beta

maybe even the play-test

[calm bison]

Ye

[stark owl]

I never noticed

[calm bison]

There’s also one where your screen turns red

[stark owl]

It’s a cool affect I’m not gonna lie

[calm bison]

I’m not sure what causes it tho

[copper fulcrum]

The effect also happens when you pull your chute after free-falling after a certain amount of time

[steep skiff]

This game 11/10 100%

[hexed mango]

ki adi, how are your 12 wives

[steep skiff]

wow already 50% off what a deal

[hexed mango]

tryna get players back, pretty nice if you ask me

[steep skiff]

yeah sure!

[hexed mango]

Lets go! we're up 1 more percent on reviews!

[queen grove]

50% brought me in

And I'm super happy I joined BF2042

[hexed mango]

happy to have you :)

[steep skiff]

So happy!

[queen grove]

Such a good game

[hexed mango]

ive been playing since release beta. its been a nice journey

[queen grove]

Any tips for leveling up faster ...

[steep skiff]

Amazing game I'm never playing anything else ever again

[queen grove]

I know it's always a grind

[queen grove]

Damnnnnn

[hexed mango]

i like to play rao, but they recently nerfed the spot xp, so i'd suggest camping choke points as irish, on breakthrough
but if you find a groove you like, stick with it, have fun

[queen grove]

I see haha

I definitely play the objective more and less willing to do that

[hexed mango]

if you play rao with smoke, you can get smoke, spot, and disruption assists

[queen grove]

Oh wow thanks, that's a great tip

[hexed mango]

you can hack through smoke

[queen grove]

The assist engine in 2042 is amazing

Yeah spotting in 2042 seems to be working different than past games

[slim junco]

Thanks to Morbius

[hexed mango]

you're welcome

[copper fulcrum]

I mean, that makes sense

What smoke would break a wireless connection?

[queen grove]

It sucks that 2042 got such a bad reputation in the first 6 months

[hexed mango]

im not saying its bad, its just that some people might not know

[copper fulcrum]

Paik also works through smoke and people don't use Paik with smoke ever lol

[bitter skiff]

if ya cant hack the smoke...

stay out of the kitchen

[hexed mango]

well cause her's works different, rao you can specifically target through smoke to see down area, paik is just to see everything around, so yes, similar, but ig rao for more of finding who is right infront of you, in a further range

[alpine swallow]

Hope the next BF game is actually good

[hexed mango]

https://tenor.com/bQrza.gif

[alpine swallow]

I hope the next BF game launches in a good state.

[copper fulcrum]

2042 is the only Battlefield game worth playing

[alpine swallow]

I hope the next BF game doesn't cater to losers.

[wide shore]

[hexed mango]

quite a valid statement

[copper fulcrum]

agreed

[alpine swallow]

https://tenor.com/view/mr-rogers-nightmare-clown-gif-5401671

[copper fulcrum]

as the others would say, embed fail

[hexed mango]

L + bozo + 🤡 + https://tenor.com/view/mr-rogers-nightmare-clown-gif-5401671

[alpine swallow]

Failed just like 2042

[wide shore]

Alright Packie

[hexed mango]

skill issue

[alpine swallow]

I hope the next game doesnt fail

DICE has one more chance, else I move on for good

DICE needs me

[copper fulcrum]

Literally no one cares

[wide shore]

Oh no. What will they do without you?

[steep skiff]

They won't make one they killed off the community, already said so that future planned development of a next battlefield game wasn't even being considered

[hexed mango]

https://tenor.com/bH8Nd.gif

[alpine swallow]

Dissolve

[wide shore]

I’m sure

[alpine swallow]

Yes/

[copper fulcrum]

2042 is now the only Battlefield game

[wide shore]

Idk about that

[alpine swallow]

I play BF1

[copper fulcrum]

BF1 is now deleted

[alpine swallow]

only good games get deleted

[copper fulcrum]

You have now installed 2042

[alpine swallow]

Nope

[copper fulcrum]

It is now the only game on your Floppy Disk

[queen grove]

Is BF1 online ... Offline

[wide shore]

Jokes on you. I have every game since BC1 installed

[alpine swallow]

I hope DICE fires whoever made specialists and then fire whoever made the map design

[copper fulcrum]

I forget BC1 exists tbh

[queen grove]

It's not that bad

[alpine swallow]

I hope EA ceases to exist

[copper fulcrum]

Literal cry baby whining now

[queen grove]

I'm excited to have future games without it....and then come back to 2042 and play specialists

[steep skiff]

"Battlefield Fan" Hee Hee Hee Haw

[copper fulcrum]

Probably under the discord terms of service age

[wide shore]

Bing bang bop

[copper fulcrum]

YouTube is a great game in that library

[queen grove]

BF3 is so good.

[copper fulcrum]

Also yay Crash is there

[alpine swallow]

EA (Electronic Arts Incorporated) is a Video Game Publishing Company who have developed and published a diverse set of games including the Madden Franchise, Fifa Franchise, and the Battlefield Franchise.

[wide shore]

Thanks Wikipedia

[steep skiff]

the reason why BF5 and 2042 suck so much is that all the good developers left after BF1

[copper fulcrum]

Wait did Xbox remove the GTA V logo and just made it GTA Online?

[wide shore]

The reasons why they weren’t the best is because they clearly had very skewed visions.

[wide shore]

For the current Gen versions. Yes

[copper fulcrum]

BF4 was better than BF1 ngl

[wide shore]

Nonononononono

BF4 is poop

[copper fulcrum]

The only thing BF1 had going for it was just 'atmosphere'

[brave vale]

hi guys, seem to have a bad bug that happened after the latest patch which has messed up all my inputs in the game and cannot play now. Is there a place on this dicord server to get support or upload a video?

Im new here, sorry if this has been covered before

[steep skiff]

yeah some of the OG devs said that they left because Dice was forcing them to make a game they didn't agree with sadly

[copper fulcrum]

Happens with every company, including Rockstar games themselves

[wide shore]

They continually have a bad vision then spend the rest of the development time trying to make up for it

Then by the time the game is good they’re moving on to the next one

[hearty flame]

the only support you might get here is help from other players. dont think there are any official troubleshooters here from EA

[alpine swallow]

Battlefield 2042, released by DICE (Digital Illusions CE) and published by EA (Electronic Arts Incorporated) on November 19th, 2021, currently has a 1.7/5 Star rating on Google.

[brave vale]

thanks, is this place ok to post a video of my issue to see if anyone can help?

or can link to a reddit post i made

[steep skiff]

2042 won't ever be good until they fix the specialist issue, its a mixed bag but a large majority don't like them

[hidden sand]

1943 was such a good "tech demo", even if very un-battlefield.

[copper fulcrum]

TLOU2 even though it has the most awards for any game whatsoever has like a 3/5 on Google. Google Reviews is probably the worst review thing you can ever find next to metacritic

[steep skiff]

Also 2042 won't ever be fixed, EA/Dice just set a skeleton crew to work on the game so...

[hearty flame]

maybe though it might get lost in the conversation. your best bet is to go to official sources for help if you cant get help here

[wide shore]

2042 has many problems. But specialists isn’t one of them

[alpine swallow]

The next game is going to be 2043.

[copper fulcrum]

It was okay, it being a sort of re-imagining of 1942's pacific maps was nice

[alpine swallow]

Nah, a lot of people don't like it. Therefore its a problem

[steep skiff]

idk about that but ok

[copper fulcrum]

I doubt there's many people on 1943 today

[hidden sand]

I thought tank gameplay (specifically how armour angling worked and part disabling), and level design was pretty good.

[hearty flame]

i bet 2043 is gonna be their last big blowout expac before shutting down 2042

[alpine swallow]

I dont want to be some cringeworthy personality on the battlefield. I just want to be a normal soldier filling a role. I dont need to be named, just give me a class.

[copper fulcrum]

BFV had some interesting tank play but encouraged a lot of vehicle camping

Ya know, the resupply stations

[wide shore]

Well guess what, they don’t talk anymore. Yayyy

[steep skiff]

“This game is basically down to a skeleton crew. It’s down to like the bare bones and those people are specifically just working on the promised additional seasons that the game needs to meet the requirements of the high-end version that it sold,” said Grubb, who described the situation as “abandon ship time”. 😢

[hidden sand]

Resupply stations were the bane of an otherwise near perfect tank system.

[alpine swallow]

Doesn't change the fact that theyre still personalities.

[hearty flame]

eh tanks tend to camp anyways with or without resupply stations

[hidden sand]

Really wish vehicle attrition had not been a thing.

[copper fulcrum]

Grubb, not being affiliated with EA/DICE making an outsiders statement about EA/DICE lol

[brave vale]

Thank you stateofzen, i found a live chat option on the ea site. So trying that

[hearty flame]

good luck with your problems

[wide shore]

Oh noooo. They’re literally 2 dimensional characters just like the class characters.

[copper fulcrum]

and immediately just goes "Oh okay" when EA/DICE says "no"

[brave vale]

Thanks, if you wanna have a look. Here is my issue lol - https://www.reddit.com/r/battlefield2042/comments/vt99i0/input_and_keyboard_lag_issues_following_update_no/

latest patch broke my game

[alpine swallow]

except they have names and backstories. I want to be a blank slate

[wide shore]

And you can’t just pretend they don’t exist?

[copper fulcrum]

Oh no, easily ignorable names

[wide shore]

Everyone else does

[steep skiff]

sure 👍

[alpine swallow]

No, because I need to know what they look like to know who I am fighting. Id rather it go back to class-specific appearance than character specific appearance

[copper fulcrum]

Considering how he came in to this conversation, I imagine he just wants stuff to whine and complain about

[alpine swallow]

I assume you dont have enough of that here

[hidden sand]

Nah I mean it's painfully obvious you're playing as predefined characters if the nofaced soldier is something you were hoping for, not that I agree with how OneGuy is approaching the convo tho.

[copper fulcrum]

Crouch Button go brrrrrt

[steep skiff]

Yes 👍

[alpine swallow]

Lol no shit the game is garbage. But I cant let the echo chamber go out

[hidden sand]

This chat is so far from being an echo chamber

[alpine swallow]

Because Im here

[hidden sand]

I have no clue what'd even make you think that honestly

[hearty flame]

echo chamber sure but i think the large lost population speaks for itself to dice

[wide shore]

Most of us who like the game will admit it’s flaws constantly

[steep skiff]

it's the small, loud-minority that keep this game how it is lol

[copper fulcrum]

There's a lot of contrasting opinions constantly really

[alpine swallow]

Specialists is a flaw, you just claimed it wasnt a problem

[steep skiff]

starting with the specialists 😎

[copper fulcrum]

"A flaw"

[alpine swallow]

Yes

[copper fulcrum]

Comedy gold

[alpine swallow]

hence why its unpopular.

[copper fulcrum]

Diamonds

[hearty flame]

we're not losing specialists in 2042 unfortunately because of how baked into the game it is. gotta hope the next bf drops them

[alpine swallow]

Youre right its unpopular because people like it

[steep skiff]

I'm glad I refunded lol what a good spent money 💰

[alpine swallow]

fucking moron

[copper fulcrum]

THE BEEF

Top of the line comedian

[alpine swallow]

DICE will get rid of specialists next game, what does that say about them in this game?

[wide shore]

Didn’t know you have a crystal ball

[alpine swallow]

My uncle works at DICE

[steep skiff]

ask him to delete specialists pls

[wide shore]

Sure guy

[alpine swallow]

They never even had Specialists as an option in the initial concepting

[wide shore]

Idk if you know this. But games change constantly from the concepting phase.

[hearty flame]

ah scope creep

[steep skiff]

"Next-Gen Game" 🤡

[hidden sand]

So glad the barrel reticle is back on tanks so you can keep track of third person shots and aiming better

Do wish it was a bit smaller though

[wide shore]

I mean, it is. It doubles the player count and map size.

[steep skiff]

doubling player count was a bad idea

[hearty flame]

if player count and map size makes a game next gen then mag was way ahead of its time lol

[steep skiff]

idk I thought it was cool at first but knew that half the game would be bots

[wide shore]

Idk where you’re playing but I rarely play with bots

[steep skiff]

just like fortnite 🤓

[copper fulcrum]

Fortnite has bots now?

[steep skiff]

Yes

[hidden sand]

Not really a good case for calling it next gen, tbh. Warzone has 150 players and works fine on last gen.

[copper fulcrum]

I wouldn't know, I never touched it lol

[hexed mango]

https://tenor.com/bSbCh.gif

[wide shore]

It does when it has the fidelity, destruction and vehicle play of Battlefield.

[wide shore]

The graphics are also heavily scaled down from the main game.

[clever coyote]

Why did bf2042 want to make a game that poops on people's hearts?

[steep skiff]

$$$

[copper fulcrum]

Waiting for Morbius to say his catch phrase

[cyan trout]

https://tenor.com/view/jonah-hill-annoyed-gif-11134341

[hexed mango]

skill issue

[wide shore]

Console players can’t even change their FOV in warzone.

[hexed mango]

skill issue x2

[copper fulcrum]

There we go

[steep skiff]

This game was so bad that I morbed all over myself and couldn't stop morbing

[copper fulcrum]

Oh yeah I forgot about that

[hexed mango]

literal skill issue

[hidden sand]

Changing your FOV shouldn't decrease performance though.

[wide shore]

It does though?

[copper fulcrum]

It really doesn't unless there's optimization issues

[wide shore]

You have to render more on the screen

[copper fulcrum]

Not too much to deal with frame delay

[steep skiff]

Console is the best

[copper fulcrum]

If a game is well optimized, it can have an FOV Slider

[wide shore]

Funny

[steep skiff]

Why

[hidden sand]

Not really. When you increase your fov, you're also increasing the cameras distance from objects further away, which should balance out the things you need to render.

Unless it's unoptimized.

[copper fulcrum]

Yes it also comes down to how the game just renders objects

[steep skiff]

By next-gen game did they mean downgraded graphics to run on lower-end console platforms?

[wide shore]

BF is like the only FPS that lets me do it.

[cyan trout]

[copper fulcrum]

Titanfall 2

[wide shore]

[copper fulcrum]

Doom Eternal and 2016

[wide shore]

Never played it.

[steep skiff]

Nap time little baby 🤡

[copper fulcrum]

Minecraft

[wide shore]

Minecraft does warn you about increasing it. Lol

[copper fulcrum]

Does it? I thought it just says "Quake Pro" when you reach max

[hidden sand]

Quake pro lmfao

[wide shore]

At least on bedrock it does. I don’t think Java does

[copper fulcrum]

which is a joke, I fucking love

[wide shore]

Yeah it says something like “increasing FOV could lead to loss of frames/crashing”

[steep skiff]

Bye I'm sure you're all just saying the game is good because you wasted your money 💵

[clever coyote]

I was so excited to play bf2042 and then when i did it was like some one pooped on my heart

[hidden sand]

It's really dependant on the game and how well optimized it is though

[hexed mango]

skill issue

[cyan trout]

Best $40 I have thrown away

[copper fulcrum]

You technically load more chunks at the time, but at the same time bedrock version is optimized quite well

[wide shore]

Well, optimization isn’t very good on this game on series x.

[wide shore]

It is.

[steep skiff]

By "Bye" I meant I'm getting off don't ping me bruh 🤡

[copper fulcrum]

Unless you have a lag machine then that makes sense

[soft owl]

I guess it depends how much of a battlefield fan you are.

I've played every bf game there is. And their all worth it.

2042 has its problems but I honestly thing people are just greedy.

[copper fulcrum]

Minecraft on Xbox only really lags if a server lag happens or if you have a fuckton of shit going on at once and I mean a fuckton of shit

[wide shore]

Yeah it runs well on SX

[copper fulcrum]

Like 100 slimes in a 20 block hole fuckton of shit

[soft owl]

Everyone wants perfection these days. Kind of sad considering the games we grew up with in the 90s.

[copper fulcrum]

90s games were a simpler time

[hearty flame]

you should see the type of shit people do to crash minecraft servers. its some weird occult magic man

[soft owl]

Ahh.. the 90s.. do good. 😕

[hidden sand]

I think people expect more from a triple A studio with millions of dollars behind them, which is fair tbh.

[wide shore]

Weirdly can’t get too many chunks in the render distance. On my PC which is a POS I can get like 40 chunks of render distance. But on SX it’s like 29?

[copper fulcrum]

I expect to be a grandpa in the next ten years and you're already hurting my back with this talk, Delusion420 lol

[cyan trout]

I just want to have fun 2042 didn't scratch that itch for me

[wide shore]

Aye, that’s okay

And a very fair statement

[hidden sand]

If vehicle balance wasn't so bad I'd enjoy the game a lot more.

[copper fulcrum]

Destroyed three Condors as a Hind Gunner today

[hexed mango]

just play infantry rush easy

stop having such a skill issue

[wide shore]

How is the movement on last gen now? I heard it got improved this patch

[soft owl]

Certainly a fair point. There's a few things that can be fixed. But it still isn't a terrible game. I mean, you're in this discord, right?

[hidden sand]

Honestly have no clue what they meant tbh. It feels identical to pre-patch.

[copper fulcrum]

Maybe your sense have movement has gone worse in that one day of absence

[soft owl]

Haha I literally didn't notice any difference also. 😅

[wide shore]

Weird

[hidden sand]

I don't think it's absolutely awful, but I've also stopped caring/hoping for certain things that I know will not happen for this game. However vehicle balance infuriates me lmao.

[wide shore]

50mm shouldn’t exist on helicopters

Stop trying to make it work. Just remove it

The game would be 1000x better

[soft owl]

Absolutely agree with vehicle balance. I haven't played PC or next gen, only Xbox one, but if there was a huge thing I would choose to be fixed, lt would be the vehicle balance.

I get what you mean though, they hyped this game alot and I don't blame anyone for being disappointed.

I just think some people take it way too far considering they've still given us a somewhat decent game.

[copper fulcrum]

It's definitely in a much better state.

Transport Choppers can't really be defenseless against vehicles

[wide shore]

They wouldn’t be.

They have 2 fucking mini guns

Which can decimate air vehicles

And it can keep the grenade launcher if they’re so inclined.

[copper fulcrum]

I meant like land vehicles

[soft owl]

Transport choppers defensive status relies on the gunners ability to hit the target. 🤣

[hidden sand]

Not going to happen. The fact they didn't even think to lower the dmg is honestly mind boggling but ah well.

[wide shore]

Just remove the 50MM

It’s ridiculous how much splash damage the damn thing has.

Anybody with 3 brain cells can get on a 30 killstreak with it

[hexed mango]

buff apache/hokum, buff jets, buff bolte, buff MBT
move jets to their own category

[wide shore]

Also fix the stealth helis 30mm cannons

[hidden sand]

Which is very, very easy to do with it's gigantic blast radius and dmg output.

[hexed mango]

i, personally, would rather not nerf stuff into the ground, but buff the stuff that needs buffs

[soft owl]

To be honest, I'm sad the night bird is no longer the king of the sky. That new heli they added murders the crap out of me every time.

[hidden sand]

The nightbird needs a complete re-work tbh.

[copper fulcrum]

Nightbird go brrrt

"Pilot Killed"

[hidden sand]

The rocket pods are okay now though. That ROF nerf was surprisingly effective.

The mini-guns should be the primaries though. There still lies the issue that the rocket pods are superior to the mini-guns in every way.

[copper fulcrum]

Buff this,
Buff that!
How about you buff yourself?

okay I'm gone. 🙂

[soft owl]

I feel like a lot of smaller mechanics are being worked on first. Probably trying to smooth the gameplay before they start making huge changes.

Miniguns definitely need to be buffed. Those things can kill anything.

[hidden sand]

They need their spread reduced significantly, and a lower TTK. So that way it requires precise aim to get it right.

BF4 did the miniguns on the little bird really well.

Ah yeah, they need to converge on the crosshair too. For whatever reason, they don't.

The rocket pods on the attack helos don't either and also have no indicator to let you know where they're coming from, which would be nice to have.

[copper fulcrum]

Have you used the Portal Little Bird?

[hidden sand]

Yup, that's exactly how the nightbird should be imo.

Ripple Effect are doing a good job at recreating the vehicles.

[soft owl]

The bullet spread makes me want to hurt myself. 🤣 I mean, you should be able to hit a target from a distance. But if your tried in the night bird, you'd just being showering an area with pretty water. Does nothing.

Nightbirds have always been a fan favourite though, so it's hopefully going to be fixed really soon or at least improved. Fingers cross there.

All your suggestions are on point though, should send them some feedback. I think the main problem with improvements is not too many people actually give feedback in a proper dot pointed way.

[hidden sand]

I've sent them a lot of vehicle feedback already, and you're right. Most vehicle feedback can be summed up as "NERF THIS NOW", so.

So giving them that feedback feels kind of useless when the majority of people don't talk about vehicle balance.

DICE has a recurring problem of only listening to the loudest feedback, so.

It's pretty much 50/50 on if vehicle balance improvements will actually happen.

[velvet sand]

so uh...does breakthrough work for anyone? the past 6 matches I've tried joining go straight from loading screen (which takes forever) to main menu >.>

[cunning breach]

lol dunb

everything about you radiates that

[plain flax]

I'm currently having the same problem

[fossil trench]

What do you think they should do lol?

[hidden sand]

Consider vehicle feedback even if ten thousand people aren't screaming for it.

[fossil trench]

They can’t just listen to that one guy on Reddit and make the game around what he wants

[rotund grail]

I think they should readd BT 128

[hidden sand]

Not what I was saying though.

[rotund grail]

And they should stop ruining Sundance

[fossil trench]

Idk I see most problems being taken care of

[hidden sand]

Then you probably don't play vehicles much.

[fossil trench]

Sundance needed heavy nerfs lol

[hidden sand]

Or tanks, at least.

[fossil trench]

I do.

[fossil trench]

And I do

I don’t think tanks are fixable

[rotund grail]

And they should stop ruining the game balance in favor of the attackers.

[fossil trench]

It’s not something you can just adjust the health or damage and fix the problem

They need to be adding APS to tanks

[hidden sand]

APS wouldn't really help.

[fossil trench]

What do you suggest then lol

Like give me your ideas

[hidden sand]

APS coincides with cover, which every single base map severely lacks so helis and jets would be able to go through it quite easily.

[fossil trench]

Give me a better suggestion.

[hidden sand]

One idea I had was an APS stamina bar, that allowed usage of it at any time, however it drains very quickly, and has a 25-30 second cooldown.

However that wouldn't be needed for dumb fire weapons really.

I think that it would work better if only for lock ons.

So that way tanks can actually counter air vehicles.

[fossil trench]

Yeah so what was saying. That’s BF4’s APS

[hidden sand]

Nah. BF4s lasted a few seconds and shut off for a cooldown.

[fossil trench]

That’s literally the same thing

[hidden sand]

I'm talking about a "bar" of APS you could activate at any time until it runs out and needs to refresh.

Runs out as in, you can reactivate and deactivate.

[fossil trench]

Ehh that sounds better I guess

They need to add APS in the first place though lol

[hidden sand]

Only for lock ons though because that would be stupidly frustrating for dumbfire users.

Lock ons are the biggest issue for tanks atm.

[fossil trench]

That would be ECM

Just jamming

Unable to lock on

[hidden sand]

Tanks are supposed to work around the level design and that's what makes improving them particularly difficult, because a lot of the previous protections they had do not work in 2042.

Gah, so sad how far tanks were tossed to the curb.

And they seem so hellbent on making things worse for them.

[fiery solar]

When you can’t get air America bundle

[hidden sand]

But as you said earlier, they can't be fixed and a part of me realizes that.

The TV Missile is here to stay for instance and there's no way they could balance it to be fair for tanks.

Ah, wanna go behind cover to repair? Actually this missile goes around that cover, bye bye

So yeah lol.

[plain flax]

Maybe add a trophy system for the tank?

[hidden sand]

Yes an APS would be nice, the problem with it though is level design.

Cover for tanks is extremely limited.

But that's enough tank rambling from me. Time to sleep.

[prisma hazel]

yo

anything i should know about the game before buying it?

[fiery solar]

I’m playing orbital I swear I saw a fortnite rift at the top of the sky

[prisma hazel]

😐

[fiery solar]

No I can’t make this up bro it had the cracks

If was when the tornado was forming but it was far from it

[prisma hazel]

yo bro i have a question for u

do you like the game?

[fiery solar]

Hm

[prisma hazel]

does that mean yes

like mhm or hmm as in idk

[fiery solar]

Well it looks cool

[prisma hazel]

looks cool?

how long have u been playing it?

[fiery solar]

Beta

And early access

[prisma hazel]

so a long time

[fiery solar]

Yeah but stopped for a month or 2

[prisma hazel]

i have only played for like 2-3 hours

and now the game is on sale so

do u think its worth buying?

[fiery solar]

Pc or console

[prisma hazel]

pc

its 30$ on steam

[fiery solar]

How good is your pc

[prisma hazel]

gtx 1070 i7-7700

16gb ram

it ran decently last time i played it on all medium

[fiery solar]

I’d say it’s really fun but sucks they removed breakthrough 128 players

It’s stil really fun but I can’t play this game on pc and haven’t played it in a while in pc anyways

[prisma hazel]

a lot of ppl have been saying bad stuff about the game

is there anything super bad i should know before buying it?

[fiery solar]

Performance

[prisma hazel]

i was average 80-100 fps

[fiery solar]

I’m not sure if it’s been fixed but ever since season 1 started I cannot even launch the game without it freezing but it could be me only

[prisma hazel]

that is good enough for me

[fiery solar]

It must just be my luck or I need a better cpu

[prisma hazel]

maybe cuz my pc is not very good it usually averages like 60-80 fps on all low for 90% of the games i play

[fiery solar]

I play on ps5 I’m playing it rn it’s fun

[prisma hazel]

so this game gives above average performance imo

[fiery solar]

The visuals are incredible too imo

The lighting looks like it was changed a lot

[prisma hazel]

^

that was one of the main sellers

[fossil trench]

You mean Lis?

[prisma hazel]

the graphics remind me of cod modern warfare 2019

which the new cods look trash compared to that

[fiery solar]

Especially the damn rocks in this game

And the vegetation

[fossil trench]

I really hope they have a tank buff planned

It needs a fix more than anything

[fiery solar]

Wish they kept the old rain drops

How they looked like they were sliding down your window

[prisma hazel]

what about em?

[prisma hazel]

tanks are annoying

[sharp marten]

It baffled me today that in game chat someone was mad about the Sundance nerf

Na she needed that nerf

[fossil trench]

💯

[foggy halo]

You can hear the pilot breathing from outside of the heli lmao

[prisma hazel]

hey

whos casper

it says there my most played

but i havent played anyone but the healer girl

[foggy halo]

Also this game became arma

50 DEGREES, 100 METERS

[sharp marten]

They also changed the cool down on the auto repair for tanks so it’s quicker

Which was awesome

[fiery solar]

The 1 grenade? That’s all I noticed cause I didn’t read anything

[sharp marten]

Yeah

[copper fulcrum]

It really isn't a bad nerf since the regeneration is quicker to counter-act it some

[sharp marten]

Yeah it’s not to bad

[copper fulcrum]

However it was strong against LATVs and Hovercrafts who sometimes can't have a countermeasure if they want something different

[fiery solar]

Only ever used anti armor grenade to trick helicopters

[copper fulcrum]

Two Anti-Armor grenades on those would disable an engine and bring it down to like 10 HP

A default SFAR grenade or an NTW-50 would finish the job so it was a bit much

[fiery solar]

2 hits and a couple of shots from the ak24

[fossil trench]

Lmao Sundance gets multi kills like it’s nothing

[copper fulcrum]

And since the Scatter grenades got buffed like a lot, this nerf is fine

[fossil trench]

Definitely deserved that nerf

[sharp marten]

Some of the devs where in here asking questions about what we’d like to see I think it was Sam who asked what kind of tank counter measures there should be I said reactive armor or ADS system would be pretty nice

[copper fulcrum]

As a Sundance main I'm totally okay with it

[fossil trench]

Though I think the anti armor grenades need a buff

[fiery solar]

I threw a scatter and the bombs exploded and I got no kills and seconds later it says I got a multi kill

[fossil trench]

Me too

[fossil trench]

Only against vehicles

[sharp marten]

I’ve been maiming Irish a lot as gonna try and unlock all the stuff for him

[copper fulcrum]

"Maiming"

Sorry but that's a very funny typo

[fiery solar]

What’s a shoot down sentinel

[fossil trench]

Irish’s APS

I think

[copper fulcrum]

It shoots down stuff on it's own like a sentinel

[sharp marten]

Maining lmao

[copper fulcrum]

So grenades, sometimes rockets, etc.

[fiery solar]

And you gotta shoot down 3200 of those

[copper fulcrum]

I know what you meant but Maiming is a totally different word from what you mean lol

[sharp marten]

Need something to counter the stealth choppers bombs throw a sent down

[copper fulcrum]

Vehicle grenade launchers are also countered with it

So like the 40mm grenade launcher on a Hovercraft, Hind, LATV4, etc.

[sharp marten]

I wish it knock out c4 and rockets as well

C5 mostly

[copper fulcrum]

Transport chopper gunner abusers on their way to complain about not being able to kill enemies as easily as they used to
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/851660886665330688/994410547820908655/Woah_Wait.mov

[fossil trench]

No you have to shoot down rockets with it

You have to shoot down 3200

[copper fulcrum]

Irish's thing has to shoot down 3200 projectiles with it

That's a better way to say it lol

[ebon fern]

Do staff read suggestions in this chat ?

Or is it better to make a post on the forums?

[thin violet]

They come in from time to time

Might want to save it for then

[copper fulcrum]

Rarely does a AAA game developer actually check a very fast moving discord chat for suggestions/feedback

Not denying it has happened

[ebon fern]

Hmm i just thought they don’t since i was writing some suggestions but only got responses from random people here that wrote they would not care

[copper fulcrum]

It's not really a matter of who cares or not, it's mostly about how fast the chat moves

[quiet shell]

I think 2042 is set on a different planet

I don't recall the sun rising in the North and setting in the South

[upbeat sand]

How to un equip badges?

[acoustic island]

What’s with the lightning on manifest

Does it randomly have like 500 strikes at once for anyone else

[copper fulcrum]

You see,

[trail lake]

Europe servers dead af

[river rapids]

Just started playing 2042 again. Did they change the amount of fighter aircraft you can have at one time? In the conquest games I’ve played it shows 1/1 for jets and attack helicopters.

[acoustic island]

Yep they did

[river rapids]

😩why did they do it?

That really does suck lol.

[trail lake]

CHAOS

theyre finally making a change

trying to balance this shit

[river rapids]

The air feels empty . The hell am I supposed to do with a jet now lol

[trail lake]

You gonna have to play like the rest of us..

On. The. Ground.

[river rapids]

I can’t tell you how much this saddens me lol.

[quiet shell]

@ripe hedge Sorry for the ping, but when did you guys add pulling your pistol out in water? Cause I don't remember that being a thing at Launch or for most of post launch.

I just now discovered it in Portal

[wide shore]

It’s always been there

[quiet shell]

No it hasn't

[wide shore]

It was in BF5 too

Yes it was

[quiet shell]

It wasnt in 2042

[wide shore]

Yes it was

[trail lake]

Nah

[wide shore]

I’ve been doing it since launch

[quiet shell]

I'm not crazy I swear in past versions of 2042 you couldnt

[river rapids]

Does Alex work for bf? I’d like to know if they’ll add more than one attack heli and jets in a match

[next onyx]

Yeah same I swear it wasn't a thing on 2042 in the past.

[wide shore]

Alex is a gun dev

[next onyx]

I know you cannot dive even.

[quiet shell]

Not his department, he works on guns

[river rapids]

👍

[wide shore]

I’m 100% positive you have been able to do it always

[cunning breach]

@wide shore can you ban someone in minecraft so i can join

[trail lake]

lool

[quiet shell]

Yeah I remember plenty of times I couldn't pull out a gun in the water in 2042

[river rapids]

Am I the only one that cares you can only have 1 jet or attack heli at a time?

[wide shore]

You’ve always had to hit the swap weapon button to pull it out.

[fossil trench]

Yes he does but he works on guns

[trail lake]

We hate all pilots

Im thankful

that they made it

like that

[fossil trench]

They nerfed the 50mm 😔

[wide shore]

Barely

[fossil trench]

Wait really lol

It’s still OP?

[wide shore]

It still does the same damage

[fossil trench]

Lolololol

[wide shore]

It just shoots slower

[fossil trench]

I mean at least it’s something

[wide shore]

They should’ve just deleted it

[wide shore]

I can’t do that.

[fossil trench]

Whoever gets above the other in transport heli vs transport heli first wins

It’s so broken lol

[wide shore]

[night vessel]

bruh How No-pats where back in the day

[scenic tartan]

aircraft haters are low energy

it should be 3 attack for 128 player modes

[hot minnow]

do anyone have same bug when unlocking attachment on AI mode and it didnt unlock only finish the kill?

[bronze steeple]

1 to many

[fossil trench]

Don’t remind me…

I’m gonna hate his game more lol

Oml Medal of Honor was great

[river rapids]

https://tenor.com/view/angry-mad-fed-up-the-office-steve-carell-gif-5562370

Just watched top gun and thought hey I can play some bf and get into some dogfights..5 seconds later

It’s a freaking battlefield game not cod I need a million vehicles air and ground as well as ships on the water type of warfare

[thin violet]

The way they limit vehicles rn just makes it easier for Helis to farm infantry tbh

Not much threat to them

[foggy halo]

Don’t hate the game, they added arma 3 lines to the game you can get immersed

[lucid goblet]

https://tenor.com/view/marnin-morning-dog-border-collie-gif-24373025

[fossil trench]

Yeah I saw about the new lines

I actually really like them

Improvement for sure

[foggy halo]

lol

[fossil trench]

No I’m serious lol

Better than “Angel does it again”

💀

[night vessel]

agreed

[chrome fox]

0 rizz^

[foggy halo]

I know that you are serious, that's what's funny

[fossil trench]

🤷‍♂️

I was never for removing them completely

Just get rid of the cringy ones

[lucid goblet]

@minor hollyNo begging in the server.. read the #500058972234055710

[minor holly]

that was not begging

i was demanding someone buy me the game

[topaz field]

man what cod po pats run around with pink weapons

[lucid goblet]

same thing, don't do it.

[minor holly]

what happens if i do it

[lilac dust]

Welp found out if you stay in a portal server you don't have to keep changing firerate to full auto on BSV... Looks like I'm staying in portal til I tier 1 this gun lol

[civic reef]

Qn92a

[silk surge]

Would you guys categorize Exposure as 2042's remake of Metro? Or do you still yearn for a 128p remake of Metro?

[slate needle]

i will always yearn for metro.

deep in my bosom lies a fiery desire for it

[lilac dust]

Considering the maps on offer in 2042 I'd say it deserves a true successor to metro, but exposure on it's own is fantastic for all types of play

[thin violet]

128 players entirely indoors would definitely be something

[silk surge]

I generally dislike metro maps because of the grenade spam, but playing Irish has made it a lot more tolerable.

[lilac dust]

Oooh yeah true I'm forgetting how bad nade spam is already in the facility part of exposure lol

[silk surge]

Didn't BF3/4 have an APS system? I played those games a lot, and I can't remember ever seeing that ingame.

[chilly jacinth]

it does for some ground vehicles

[lilac dust]

No idea, but the more I think about metro and locker the more I remember it as a "Roll the dice, maybe you'll get 10 kills or maybe you'll keep dying to nades" ... Gets stale for me

[slate needle]

bf4 ik had an aps system

aps system is redundant
it had an aps

[silk surge]

I know it's an unpopular opinion, but my favorite metro take is Operation Underground in BFV. There were a lot less grenade spamming in that game.

[lucid goblet]

Irish's APS T1 grind would be done super quick on a 2042 metro lol

[brazen breach]

oi

[lucid goblet]

oi

[topaz field]

metro remake would be nice but not the one from bfv i hated it

[silk surge]

@brazen breach yoo

[brazen breach]

😃

[topaz field]

😳

[lilac dust]

I didn't play that map or much of the game in general, but was the lack of spam due to map design or the gear you had in that game?

[lucid goblet]

how are you today good sir?

[brazen breach]

All good - sup with you all?

[silk surge]

@brazen breach Btw, did you guys stealth nerf HEAT shells? They no longer one shot jets.

[topaz field]

bout to play update 1.1

[green bridge]

I wish. Lmfao how crazy would that be

[brazen breach]

Not to my knowledge, will check

Yeah - if you’ve played 1.1 already how does it feel?

[green bridge]

I hope to play tonight!

[silk surge]

It was the gear. They placed a ton of counter meassures against grenade spamming in BFV, like anmo grates didnt resupply grenades, and explosives were generally weak against infantry.

[topaz field]

i played 10mins yesterday on last gen ps4 feel great

[slate needle]

some performance issues on pc but solid beyond that

[jolly trout]

felt good on pc but had some connection problems (might be me) but overall was good

[lucid goblet]

Not bad, looking for secrets that may have been added in yesterday 👀

https://tenor.com/view/spy-spying-binoculars-observe-look-gif-5325326

[thin violet]

I played a couple games, felt good. I hope in the future vehicle restrictions are lightened. They don’t have to worry about each other so much as is and can often just focus infantry.

[lilac dust]

I'd really love to see infantry conquest as an AoW mode so we can get multiple air vehicles back in 128 conquest.

[green bridge]

Why does the new map not have a weather event like the others?

Wink wink

[foggy halo]

you smoke and push

[brazen breach]

Are you just wondering, or is that something you are actively missing/ enjoy?

[slate needle]

it would have to be one cursed ass mountain lmfao

landslide...immediate tornado

[thin violet]

@lilac dust would not be opposed to that!

[lilac dust]

Do I throw a smoke grenade and push enemies? Is that what you're saying lol

[chilly jacinth]

I think one of the devs said something like it didn't play well

[foggy halo]

not just 1, but yeah

[green bridge]

I enjoy the change from previous titles. I miss it in the new map.

[chilly jacinth]

with weather events

[silk surge]

For me it's both. The extreme weather effects is one of the best features in 2042, and its sad to see that the new map didn't have it included.

[lilac dust]

No why? I like playing as infantry but I lean more towards air vehicles, but as of recently I have no desire to jump in air vehicles because the number is so restricted

[green bridge]

But didn’t they promote more then just rain as a weather event. Wasn’t there meant to be volcanos and earth quakes etc

The rocket blows up or takes off in 1. Storms in others. Cyclones etc.

[chilly jacinth]

they're not in the game so dunno

[lucid goblet]

firestorm when?

https://tenor.com/view/bf5-battlefield5-crafter-firestorm-ring-of-fire-gif-13733091

[silk surge]

They never confirmed volcanos and earth quakes. Although some of the concept art heavily hints at a forest fire weather event in the future.

[foggy halo]

I've explained to you that it's not a dice roll. you need to smoke and push with teammates. play what you like.

[slate needle]

forest fire weather event

[lilac dust]

Didn't notice the specific comment you were replying to. Thought it was the infantry conquest comment lmao

[slate needle]

man the more i think about it the more gutted i get knowing hz isnt getting more contwnt

[green bridge]

Sandstorm is the other one

[lucid goblet]

[silk surge]

I'm the exact opposite. I usually play infantry, but I've played stealth heli religiously since it came out. I love one shotting condors by dropping bombs on them.

[slate needle]

i was so excited to see lore pushed through hz

[lilac dust]

No don't get me wrong I adore the stealth helis. They're super fun to use, but the problem is that we have 128 players that are potentially trying to spawn in one, and when you factor that in with only 1 single vehicle per team and then you get shot down and have to wait a while for a chance of getting it, rather than the more likely opportunity when there was multiple, it's disheartening to say the least

[thin violet]

Yeah it’s not worth the effort trying to get a heli rn

[silk surge]

@lilac dust btw, if you want to ensure a heli spawn at the start of the match, there is a very consistent method you could use.

https://youtu.be/9hi3R8dAvd0

I get the stealth heli in 99% of the games doing this.

[thin violet]

I’d rather just play the game lol

[lilac dust]

I'm not entirely sure what I just watched lol ... Are you spamming the button before it appears with the menu screen? Does the game save where your cursor last was from previous matches to ensure it's just a button press?

[green bridge]

Anyone got the answer to this. What triggers the half full bot games all round.
Sometimes ill play in a full match the. Next match most of them are bots and its very easy to get kills. Then the next back to full match again. Very confusing

[vital vine]

it only took EIGHT MONTHS, but the mouse input lag has finally been fixed. Holy Shit why did that take so long to be fixed

[green bridge]

When the game has alot of bots its easy to get heli. And the BFBC2 maps dont have that spawn delay so also easy to get them

[silk surge]

It only works on console (I think you could do it on PC if you connec a controller and then disconnect it once you have the heli). But yeah, the game remembers which vehicle you previously hovered over, so if you spam down and select, you'll easily get it before anyone else.

[foggy halo]

Just play in the evening

not a lot of people play this game

[green bridge]

Enough to fill up a few matches tho.

Cross play turned on seems to be the best thing for this game

[silk surge]

I haven't seen a single AI in AOW since season 1 launched, and I play with crossplay off on PS5.

[thin violet]

???

[bronze steeple]

Except hourglass when whole map turns red because of sandstorm i dislike that

[green bridge]

How. Lmao

[thin violet]

I have never found a match with crossplay off in my life

[silk surge]

It looks amazing, wym

[delicate yacht]

I made a 2042 air superiority ww2 edition next gen/pc only and dude i always have crossplay on lol cuz i Don't find shit

[green bridge]

Same. I sit in the load screen with 2 other people until it times out

[silk surge]

Probably a regional thing. I play from Northern Europe.

[bronze steeple]

I play mostly in evening european timezone never bots here

[thin violet]

Maybe it’s a EU vs NA difference

Yeah

[green bridge]

Turned cross play on. I find matches instantly

[bronze steeple]

Yea but not always improve skill

[bronze steeple]

👆

[silk surge]

Northern Europe is probably the best region to play Battlefield games in. You have countries like England, Sweden, and Germany where Battlefield is exceptionally popular.

[green bridge]

Im OCE. Australia. I would of assumed EU and NA would of been the most packed of all regions.

[slate needle]

EU andys

[silk surge]

2042 physical copies still goes for around $60 here in Sweden.

[thin violet]

Kind of wild

Can get one for like 8 dollars here

[green bridge]

😅 and i paid over $120 shame

[thin violet]

Ouch

[chrome fox]

k30 needs a buff

[uncut bay]

nice bait

[lilac dust]

Slow down there. We need a BSV buff first

[chrome fox]

it did get one but it wasn’t enough still underpowered

[lilac dust]

true. While we're at it, we need to increase movement speed to sanic levels, and give us 3 more grenades

[chrome fox]

Nerf shotguns

shotguns in a battlefield game should be illegal

shotgun players when they spend 2 mins running to obj just to get sniped

they are especially on certain maps where they can hold closed objs like it’s nothing

they always play irish too

[grizzled whale]

Or dont get so close to someone with a shotgun

They dont need nerfs

[chrome fox]

Found the shotgun user

don’t go in the obj that you have to cap? guess ill go f myself

[lilac dust]

Deleted my comment in case DICE saw it. I haven't tier 1'd any yet so as far as I'm concerned they need buffed til I do 😏

[bronze steeple]

Here half i guess now i bought it for 60 aswell at release

[bronze steeple]

[chrome fox]

so how do you win 2nd phase attack on kaleidoscope

[lilac dust]

You will win when you reload the map in August update

[delicate yacht]

[chrome fox]

I mean vehicles are useless cause it’s inside a giant room where they all just stay in there

one of the worst maps imo

manifest always will be the best map

[lilac dust]

August map update makes vehicles fly, so all will be fixed then

[patent path]

oh there's a new scope?

cool

[bronze steeple]

I see it less latly but agree very good map atleast for infantry

[thin violet]

Man I can’t wait for discarded to get a rework

It’s so bad

[slow mortar]

Can't wait for the next battlefield to come out

[uncut bay]

can't wait to relive the launch of every past battlefield all over again

i swear it's some black mirror type shit

[lilac dust]

I can't wait for investors and higher ups to be cool

[fossil trench]

What gun has the new cranked iron sights?

[chrome fox]

next battlefields not coming till 2024

[high wing]

theyre not gonna be cool but theyre gonna learn that if you wanna make money you have to make a complete game

cause no exec or shareholder cares about the product, they care about numbers

[thin violet]

Idk if games before 2042 didn’t teach them then I doubt it will now

[high wing]

thats the thing many people who made the legendary bf games quit dice

[lilac dust]

It'll never not be about the money, but i'ts wild how much they chance their luck just to make some extra money

[high wing]

and the new execs think they can deliver shit product and get a lot of money because they dont know shit about games

and they learn when their sales drop

if 2042 still got bought and played a lot like previous games they would defo continue like this

look at cod

[lilac dust]

Something that would be cool is if investors and execs had a broad knowledge of the gaming industry.

[high wing]

same shit every year and still sells

and 90% of budget is in the cosmetics dept

[chrome fox]

bruh why does my team get 30 bots and they get a full 64

[high wing]

cause their target audience are fucking NPCs

[median tree]

Hey what do you suggest to level up the battle pass fast, I want to get the BSV-M soon

I’m like level 3, started playing yesterday after the new season

[low timber]

SFAR and VCAR

[lilac dust]

Check the challenges in the battlepass menu. Look for all the easy ones and knock those out first. Free XP

[thin violet]

@median tree just play multiplayer and try to do the easier challenges. It’s quite fast to hit lvl 17.

[median tree]

Ok thanks, challenges it is then

[thin violet]

It’s a lot quicker rn because you have access to multiple weeks worth

[tacit sphinx]

sfar and vcar actually display it in the menu and can equip it, apparently you can unlock it for any other rifle but it doesn’t actually work atm

[thin violet]

The incendiary launcher change is kind of hilarious. I’ve been killing campers through walls.

Isn’t the scope like 8x though

Kind of gross

[tacit sphinx]

it’s 4.5x

[thin violet]

Oh ok

[tacit sphinx]

feels like it would be good for DMRs, personally not a huge fan of higher magnification on assault rifles generally

here’s how it looks

[thin violet]

Nice. Yeah, I can’t go over 3x on an AR/LMG

Looks good tho

[uncut bay]

yooo canted irons?

that's nice

[tacit sphinx]

i did notice that of the guns you’d expect to have the new sight (ie all the ones that got the PSO at the start of the season, so ARs DMRs and snipers) the sfar and the vcar are the only two that cannot equip a bipod

[iron delta]

I have QN93A, practically the same TV as yours. It has 120 Hz. If you are using it as a PC monitor you just have to choose 3840x2160 as PC in the drop down menu to enable 120 Hz, not TV 3840x2160.

[tacit sphinx]

idk if it’s actually supposed to be usable yet if i’m honest, the UI in the menu looks a little off atm and obviously it’s only available on two guns which is odd

[uncut bay]

wish we could just use all sights on all guns

no harm can come from it, just allows more fun and customisation

except guns that can't fit the sight, like a 6x on a glock

[tacit sphinx]

a few guns are missing certain close range sights, but honestly i think most of the selection is good

[thin violet]

I feel the same for like, short barrel. The ones without it just kind of fall behind.

[chrome fox]

can you play vs ai to level up

[tacit sphinx]

the main thing i would say is a higher max magnification on LMGs being a little higher would be nice

stick the raven 4x on there

[uncut bay]

yes but your xp per match is capped

[chrome fox]

at what

[uncut bay]

dunno but it's pretty low, not worth it

[chrome fox]

alright

[uncut bay]

playing against ai is good for getting attachments though

[lilac dust]

I feel that, but I feel like I have no choice but to keep a super long range scope on an AR so when that sniper guy won't stop sniping me I can actually scare him off

[tacit sphinx]

yeah good for attachments, not good for xp

[chrome fox]

i saw someone say they took that out

idk tho

getting attatchments in ai

[tacit sphinx]

nah i unlocked that sight in co-op lol

[chrome fox]

ok cool

[uncut bay]

you can get all attachments but not the masteries

[tacit sphinx]

i did have to play a match online and get a tick of progress on it first though which was weird, i played a match doing the assignment and then realised it didn’t track
