battlefield-2042

[lunar finch]

In cod?

[little lagoon]

There's no team play there bud

[lunar finch]

Who tf plays obj in cod?

[little lagoon]

I only play Dom in cod

[lunar finch]

Same i only play dom because it last longer so more kills

[little lagoon]

And it's more fun

[lunar finch]

I could care less about the flags

[lunar finch]

Yep spawns are less dogshit

[lapis perch]

If you could care less, it means you care some.

[lunar finch]

[lapis perch]

[lunar finch]

Okay but like is it just me or do tanks take more rockets in 2042?

[magic swan]

yes

[little lagoon]

3/4 I think no?

[lunar finch]

Maybe i just have bad memory but i thought tanks were like 3 rockets

[little lagoon]

3 c5

Just use c5

Be sneaky

[lunar finch]

Hmm ig

[magic swan]

it also makes you feel like the trailer when grappling onto them first

[little lagoon]

Using c5 is so satisfying

[magic swan]

yes

[little lagoon]

It's my go to now

[magic swan]

same

[little lagoon]

Is it?

[magic swan]

i think there should be caming

[little lagoon]

I see not a lot of camping unless it's breakthrough or rush

It's a rare sight in conquest I find

[magic swan]

no one defends points so its good to see someone actually sitting still

evryone just default traversal sprinting around

[lapis perch]

Controversial opinion: "Camping" is a valid strat in an objective based war game.

[magic swan]

everyone can camp if they want to. people will just complain because it counters their playstyle

[dire quest]

Camping is a valid strategy in real life war too

You think people run n gun irl?

[lapis perch]

People just don't like it because they get killed from areas they don't properly clear while ADHD running.

[mental delta]

So don't reduce it

[hexed mango]

yes

[uncut bay]

camping is fine in games like battlefield, just annoying when you can't get to them

[hexed mango]

just shoot them easy

[mental delta]

Not a 50mm but a miniginat least could be cool

[dire quest]

I managed to change the settings to 5000 tickets and 1 hour

[tacit sphinx]

people also conflate camping with holding a position

[lapis perch]

Don't worry, I'm also a former infantryman, so I've done my fair share of room clearing against real life campers

[hexed mango]

thats a bit... long

[tacit sphinx]

someone sitting somewhere on an objective maybe firing out towards the enemy is pretty different to someone sitting in a random corner of a hut that like 2 people ever are going to go into in the match

[dire quest]

Yeah match is taking forever, might need to readjust again lol

[uncut bay]

good point

the former is far more acceptable

[hexed mango]

im just playing on my own server

64 players jet superiority

[uncut bay]

only time i hole up is when i know half the team is gonna come find me and my team is nowhere to be found

[tacit sphinx]

ita like the whole “mmgs promote camping!!1!” thing in bfv

[hexed mango]

currently has 24 people in it

no bots, full xp

[dire quest]

What seems like a reasonable score and time limit for ground/air superiority?

[hexed mango]

30 minutes 1k

[tacit sphinx]

it promoted holding a decent position and providing fire from said position... because that’s what machine guns are for

[hexed mango]

maybe 15 if you want it really short but i think thats fine

[magic swan]

then it makes you stop up and think if you should run around a be a total target or play safely and check corners

[dire quest]

1k bots go by too quick lol

[hexed mango]

ok do 1.5k

that's what mine is

[tacit sphinx]

if your mind goes to sitting in a dark corner nowhere near an objective or typical route shooting the occasional person who runs past, that’s not on the gun lol

[magic swan]

well you know it happens often then

then you should be prepared to it

[tacit sphinx]

i did encounter this guy on rush last night who would set up an irish shield and APS in the corner of an mcom room to form a little protective pocket

[magic swan]

thats cute

[tacit sphinx]

i’d go in, die because it is actually a pretty advantageous setup if you’re not prepared for it, then come back to the outside wall with c5

[magic swan]

thats why battlefield is great, there is a playstyle for all sorts of people

[lapis perch]

[elfin idol]

Is this game getting better in terms of playability and bugs. I’m looking at maybe buying it

[tacit sphinx]

definitely

[lapis perch]

Worfit.

[dire quest]

I'd say hell yeah due to tank superiority and air superiority

Best part...bots can play both modes!

[elfin idol]

Is it worth the 80 bucks or whatever it is

[dire quest]

Hell yes

[magic swan]

what platform are you on

[lapis perch]

$60 on Steam

[tacit sphinx]

i probably wouldn’t pay 80 now but also. idk where you would buy it for 80

[magic swan]

32 euros on g2a

[upbeat sand]

Clownfield 2042 is having an update called "season 1: zero effort"

[magic swan]

alright

[lapis perch]

i hilarioused when you said that

[upbeat sand]

It brings a map called "exposed"

[lapis perch]

le'mao

go on

[magic swan]

eks dee

[upbeat sand]

But they literally added the H german man into the game

Why

[tacit sphinx]

oh wait is this the actual ‘parody’ game where they just already had a game and slapped the name on it for a quick spike of popularity and then it just died faster

[upbeat sand]

Yes

[tacit sphinx]

wtf lol

[hexed mango]

i cant believe that steam allows that certain individual into games

[upbeat sand]

308 players in clownfield

[frank tartan]

thats actually pretty funny

[magic swan]

wow thats more than unturned right now

nvm

[elfin idol]

Pc

[tacit sphinx]

it’s funny because like. it seems like actually an alright low poly shooter (having seen like 30s of gameplay lol) but instead of marketing it normally and just accepting there’s not a huge market for it and doing their own ideas they just went for a quick spike of attention and then everyone just stopped caring

[magic swan]

you can buy the origin version for 35 euros on g2a

[elfin idol]

I’m in na

[tacit sphinx]

the other one... battleblock? seemed a lot better generally though because it was just its own game

[magic swan]

idk the game seems kinda familiar to me. Almost like a copy paste shooter of other titles

[frank tartan]

do any of you know if there is plans to nerf the bsv’s damage fall off in full auto

[lapis perch]

bandwagon hate is clout among the uninspired.

[magic swan]

the dev team said they are looking at balancing it

[elfin idol]

33 bucks usd on g2a

[magic swan]

well there you go

[elfin idol]

I’m in cad so it’s still pretty pricey but yeah

[magic swan]

thats probably the cheapest way to get it

[frank tartan]

hopefully they do whoever thought it would be a good idea to give a dmr full auto has a room temp iq

[elfin idol]

Yeah

[upbeat sand]

Buying games on key sites means the developers get no money and actually loose more
It's partially like pirating music and musicians can't make enough money

[elfin idol]

42 bucks cad

Pretty good 👍

[magic swan]

wheres the lamb source?

[frank tartan]

thats just common sense wdym source

[magic swan]

i would reccomend trying it out. The game is only gonna get better from now on. So the price is probably gonna go up on those sites

idk i didnt think it would be allowed to sell if it was pirated

[upbeat sand]

https://www.engadget.com/2019-07-17-g2a-key-gift-game-developers-explained.html

Ok AAA games aren't that impacted that much so just don't buy small indie games on g2a

[magic swan]

i just wanna read up on it, common sense doesnt equal knowing everything

[lapis perch]

One of the most iconic real world "DMRs", the M14 has been a selective fire since the 60s, and all its predecessors that came after the M1 Garand have been selective fire as well.

[magic swan]

got it

[frank tartan]

i know im talking about in video games

battlfield 2042 is the farthest thing from real world

[lapis perch]

The BSV-M is a fictional hybrid of the VSS Vintorez and AS VAL, both of which are selective fire IRL. Why wouldn't the BSV-M have automatic capability? There's a ton of marksmen weapons in real life that have selective fire, what's so strange about it for you?

[frank tartan]

because this isnt real life

[magic swan]

?

[frank tartan]

this is a videogame and this gun being a dmr in this videogame gives it more dmg pershot and giving it select fire in this videogame makes it op

[lapis perch]

Nah. You're not actually making a real point when the baseline example is "the common example is selective fire".

[upbeat sand]

Say that the infinite warfare

[frank tartan]

true

[tacit sphinx]

except it doesn’t unless you only click about like. 2cps

[frank tartan]

this is a video game

[lapis perch]

If you want to make a serious argument, you have to type more words than that.

[tacit sphinx]

~400 rpm is very achievable in semi auto

[frank tartan]

you can copy and paste facts about irl guns all you want idc it is op and i said they should nerf it this is not real life it is a video game please go outside

[magic swan]

they can make whatever design they want if its real life or not

[lapis perch]

Always cracks me up when the people getting the most upset are the ones that insist other people should "go outside" lol

[tacit sphinx]

no, you threw out a vague insult at someone

[upbeat sand]

Make a borderlands jakobs style semi auto so I can just spam mouse for infinite rpm

[lapis perch]

The SVK has a lower TTK than the BSV-M anyway and that's semiauto

[frank tartan]

yes

[frank tartan]

so wrong

[lapis perch]

How would you prove that?

[frank tartan]

how would you prove it

[hallow sierra]

🤨

[lapis perch]

Should I ask a question back? Am I doing this right?

[frank tartan]

yeah

[lapis perch]

I just asked two though.

[frank tartan]

ask a third

[lapis perch]

Or what?

[magic swan]

im so confused

[lapis perch]

[frank tartan]

or i will come to your house and kiss you on the mouth and legs

[tacit sphinx]

like. the gun is overperforming but the select fire isn’t the reason lmao

[lapis perch]

^

[hallow sierra]

i just came here and i already confused

[lapis perch]

I live my life a quarter confusion at a time.

[frank tartan]

select fire is the reason you are delusional and probably new my friend

[tacit sphinx]

what

[frank tartan]

this must be your first week playing

[lapis perch]

[tacit sphinx]

if you can only click 2 times a second just say that

[frank tartan]

i can click 4 times a second

[tacit sphinx]

oh

[magic swan]

damn

[lapis perch]

My eyes can click 24 tps

[tacit sphinx]

yeah that’s still uh. quite below average

[frank tartan]

you type weird

[magic swan]

i dont need to play. Im entertained by this chat

[lapis perch]

Chat is where the real PVP is.

We on that T1 grind

[magic swan]

could use some ammo tho

[tacit sphinx]

if you can sustain 6.5cps for like half a second you’re effectively a better version of select fire but i’m sure it’s why the gun overperforms

[frank tartan]

i have all anipers T1 already shits easy af

people are so shit at this game

[lapis perch]

@upbeat sand resupply us with your hot takes

[marble grove]

Boho

[hallow sierra]

i have 3 t1 weapons and 2 t1 specialists

[frank tartan]

soldierboy > homelandsr

[lapis perch]

This reminds me of the AN-94 in Bad Company 2. Speedclicking its burst fire was faster ROF than its automatic

[upbeat sand]

Nah I'm going to watch minions 2 rise of gru

[frank tartan]

battlefield 5 was the best battlefield game

bad comapny 2 and 3 was so bad

[upbeat sand]

What the f

[magic swan]

don't forget your tuxedo and 4 more years of growing up

[upbeat sand]

Git gud

[lapis perch]

my cat just farted at these gamer takes

[magic swan]

im honored

[frank tartan]

call of duty infinite warefare was better than bas company 2 and b3

[upbeat sand]

Git gud with your aiming and game sence in bc2 and 3

[hallow sierra]

i cant even say my opinion on bad company 2 and 3 but i can say dat bfv has bad players cuz how they camp

[lapis perch]

hes going down the checklist of le'maos

[frank tartan]

people canp alot in b2042 too

[tacit sphinx]

tbf the hyperburst is like 1800rpm (not sure if bc2 reflected that but i’m sure it was quick) so if there’s a sufficiently short delay between bursts then not surprising

people camp in literally any shooter lol it’s not a new phenomenon

[hallow sierra]

but not how bfv players does it

[frank tartan]

true

[lapis perch]

God I want a proper AN-94 in this game. It's such an interesting weapon with a completely unique firing mechanism.

[frank tartan]

AN94 is not a real gun 🤣

[magic swan]

i want a reason for 2 running modes

[tacit sphinx]

ideally one that actually functions as it does irl when it’s in automatic

[lapis perch]

this mans be 🧢

[frank tartan]

show proof its real

[upbeat sand]

Anyone using the ak24 burst mode?

[lapis perch]

Show proof you're real.

[frank tartan]

look at my about me

in the realest

[tacit sphinx]

ie still fires in hyperburst for the first 2 rounds then goes down to 600 or whatever

[lapis perch]

The AN-94 is a Russian assault rifle. The initials stand for Avtomat Nikonova model of 1994, after its chief designer Gennadiy Nikonov, who previously worked on the Nikonov machine gun.Wikipedia

[lapis perch]

hurb is disrupting my bowel movement

[upbeat sand]

Anyone using ak24 burst mode?

[arctic grove]

The AN94 was a prototype which probably doesn’t exist anymore

[tacit sphinx]

i switch to it occasionally

[magic swan]

i forgot it had burst

[hallow sierra]

same i rather use ac42

[tacit sphinx]

it’s kinda nice with the higher RoF, i did tend to use semi auto over burst but that was removed so

[magic swan]

ac42 with semi automatic is bae

[tacit sphinx]

does the job for delivering a quick couple shots a little more precisely

[magic swan]

especially when you have fast gamer fingers

probably with leftover grease from the chips earlier

[lapis perch]

I switch to it accidentally

[arctic grove]

WTF

[lapis perch]

chip grease compromises your click grip bro.

[arctic grove]

The IRA has AN94’s

[tacit sphinx]

it was much more than a prototype, and it’s still in active (albeit limited) service

[arctic grove]

More or less prototypes

[lapis perch]

<tommy shelby intensifies>

[arctic grove]

Hasn’t been seen since Crimea and the first Chechen war

last produced in 2006

[lapis perch]

How do you feel about the US Army replacing the M4 family with the Spear 6.8mm

[arctic grove]

Bad

Twice as heavy as the M4 and obviously just lobbying from SIG with an inferior product

literally 15 pounds like wtf

[magic swan]

yeah they should rather use the meta loadout instead

[arctic grove]

Just make a new goddamn gun why another M16 clone

[elfin idol]

How’s the performance optimization on the game

[arctic grove]

it’s boring and not funny and different like AKS

[lapis perch]

It's okay if it's twice as heavy, they doubled the length of infantry OSUT too. Plenty of time for more ruck marches

[upbeat sand]

I don't like eating food while gaming cause it just makes your hands sticky and greasy and also it makes your controller/mouse or keyboard extremely greasy and uncomfortable

[magic swan]

yes

[upbeat sand]

I just like being clean

[elfin idol]

@magic swan

[magic swan]

it's better i would say. some find it worse, i think it depends on your computer specs

[upbeat sand]

Better

[lapis perch]

If only someone invented some kind of utensils for eating things

That'd be helpful.

[upbeat sand]

Only food I eat while gaming are grapes cause you use a fork instead of hand eating chips

[magic swan]

but it's waaaay better than at launch

[elfin idol]

Alright

[lapis perch]

nah, you just pour them all in your mouth and chew them selectively as you game.

If you put all the chips in your mouth, they have time to soften up so you can just swallow them like chip-flavored applesauce.

[magic swan]

i like to chew at the rythm of me getting kills

[upbeat sand]

If you have worst fps in your first match of 2042 after 1.1 it's cause dice updated the shader cash it's reoptimising itself so I'll get better overtime

[lapis perch]

While playing BPM shooters

[grave prism]

dozer is fucking awful. genuinley the shittiest character in the game, the only time i have any success with him is with smoke otherwise he is just completly useless, people can just run around you, throw c4 at you, throw an incidieary grenade at you, shoot a rocket at you. i do not see any reason i would use dozer over irish, bare shite

[magic swan]

its like putting them in a paper shredder

[lapis perch]

Sounds like operator error.

[upbeat sand]

I

[elfin idol]

Ok good to know

[lapis perch]

Dozer is inherently more durable than any other Specialist, therefore he's above average at no cost.

You ask them which door the other one would tell you leads out. If you asked the liar, he'd lie and tell you that the honest one would say Door 1, so you choose Door 2.

logan is writing an essay

[lilac dust]

I'm gonna make this plain and simple. Buff AA to BF4 levels so infantry can have the same frequency of satisfying kills on air vehicles as that game. Then give us back multiple attack vehicles per team so that we can counter air with air. Then we can all enjoy ourselves like in BF4. The reveal trailer is now straight up false advertising with jets chasing each other and heli's fighting each other. That is non existent with the 1 attack vehicle per team now.

[upbeat sand]

Remove ground missle and 40mm from the AA

[lapis perch]

dont make me chortle

[magic swan]

i already typed that in on the wishlist post for 2042

its a great idea

[hexed mango]

1 kill away

[lilac dust]

Is there an official wishlist post somewhere? Can I upvote this idea?

[dire quest]

Have you not played air superiority? Or tank superiority?

[magic swan]

not official, but its a community post

i can send you the link. its on reddit

[lilac dust]

Sure those are great modes, but I'm not thrilled with the idea of a staple mode like conquest being left to die

[hexed mango]

and done

hot

[lapis perch]

That wasn't plain and simple, so I removed every third word to make it easier to understand.

I'm gonna this plain simple. Buff to BF4 so infantry have the frequency of kills on vehicles as game. Then us back attack vehicles team so we can air with. Then we all enjoy like in. The reveal is now up false with jets each other heli's fighting other. That non existent the 1 vehicle per now.

[dire quest]

Does 2k tickets seem more reasonable?

[lilac dust]

Air superiority died when everybody got their unlocks in BF4. Give it time and people will be crawling back to base modes wishing it was like BF4 with vehicle availability / balance

[hexed mango]

eh i like the 1.5 more

[lilac dust]

It was plain and simple til typing out the simple part got me angry and forced me to rant

[hexed mango]

they dont really check the subreddit too much

and even if they do, its not a consistently validated place for suggestions

[magic swan]

worth hoping for

then morb into the system and make it relevant

[lapis perch]

That, and there's like four subreddits that discuss 2042, and 3 of them are built on a foundation of feces in a closed dumpster on a humid day.

[magic swan]

its also just interesting to hear peoples thoughts on the game

other than "remove the specialsts" ofcourse

[lapis perch]

[hexed mango]

specialists shouldnt be removed

[lapis perch]

hear, hear

[magic swan]

thats why im here

because i see potential

[hexed mango]

i mean i 100% agree there are somethings to be changed in the game
but honestly im having a blast and a fun time, and that's what matters to me

[magic swan]

me too all th way

[lapis perch]

The only people that think the class system was better are made entirely of foreheads.

[magic swan]

i think it's nice to see dice experiment with their games

instead of a copypaste of the old ones

[hexed mango]

agree

[magic swan]

they have to the balls to do so

and ofcourse people hated

you cant get around that

[hexed mango]

like Hardline imo was really fun

Heroes maybe not so much, but hilariously weird

and other games like 2142 are smaller steps towards a different type of game

[chilly jacinth]

Hardline was almost like cod

super small maps and fast gameplay

[magic swan]

yet felt totally different

[lapis perch]

I never bothered playing Hardline. Mostly because I was already slammin and jammin on whatever other BF was already out instead.

Only mainline one I never played.

[hexed mango]

hardline was neat but not it

[lapis perch]

Other than that silly xbox battlefield, Modern Combat

[chilly jacinth]

i loved hardline

sad to see it go

[magic swan]

i actually considered buying it for the pc

[lapis perch]

The itch was already scratched for me, so I never felt like I ought to bother.

[magic swan]

i played it on the ps3 way back

its mostly nostalgia reasons tho i guess

well bedtime for me

gnight ya lads

[lapis perch]

sleep well, dream of fields of battle and resupply

[magic swan]

i will

"see you on the battlefield"

[hexed mango]

gn

[lapis perch]

[hexed mango]

bruh

[cunning breach]

they didnt experiment wit their games
they made a whole new game

[hexed mango]

it still has the same base

[lapis perch]

Yeah, making whole new games is what developers do in a series, unless you're FIFA or Activision le'mao

[cunning breach]

no they do that to new ips not an on-going series

[cosmic siren]

The hit reg on thge 45 - 70 is fuicking trash!

[lapis perch]

go on

[cosmic siren]

wHOEVER PUT THE 45-70 ION THE GAME SHOULD BE BEATEN

[hexed mango]

skill issue maybe

[hexed mango]

cope + seethe + L

[cosmic siren]

dEEX NUTS

[hexed mango]

laughs in T1 GVT

[lapis perch]

go on

[arctic grove]

I might pay the 5 for the EA thingy to get that calling card

[lapis perch]

is there more to this, or do people just alt-tab to capslock in here and then leave again

lol

[hexed mango]

the latter

[cosmic siren]

tHE POINT OF AIM IS OFF ON THE 45-70 AFTER TESTING IT AT 50, 100, 150 M WITH THE 2.0

[lapis perch]

Why are you typing like that

[hexed mango]

skill issue + spread + bozo + L + skill gap

[lapis perch]

they always forget the bozo factor

[arctic grove]

Idk what those numbers mean but they reminded me of zeroing

Add zeroing dice

[cosmic siren]

you are the best

[lapis perch]

Just use Kentucky Windage, works every time.

[hexed mango]

<3

[cosmic siren]

Maybe you should relax a little

[hexed mango]

maybe you should

[cosmic siren]

No definetly you bro

[hexed mango]

anyone here wanna play jets? (air superiority)

if so: #portal message

[lapis perch]

Once you know the aim is off, you just compensate biccboi.
If you're still missing shots, then it may be an acute case of operator headspace and timing.

[hexed mango]

or just that the bullet accuracy isnt always 100 cause spread/sway/range/accuracy/joe biden/ur mom

[lapis perch]

O'Bidenma.

[cosmic siren]

Hope they fix the game

Like update the maps and shit

and fix the shotgun ans 45-70

And the fkin menus are terrible

[lapis perch]

Make a properly composed and constructive feedback post on the forums about the things you'd like addressed.

[wide shore]

I just wish aim assist was as good as it was in V

It seems like every update it feels different.

[bitter skiff]

There are less and less takers for the hate train in here these days. When Exposure came out I was stoked and continue to be because they starved us so badly in the beginning.

Savoring crumbs.

[hexed mango]

Radar missiles are the life and death of me

[cosmic siren]

Well, I am new...and the menus are a mess, they need sorting out

[digital portal]

Chads use non radar missile

[lapis perch]

what do you mean?

[atomic lichen]

So looks like i average around 100-110 fps at 1440p with everything set on high in 2042

Pretty satisfied

[hexed mango]

sheeeet my server is full
guess people like jets a lot

[calm bison]

I think it’s cool that DICE has the detail of the GAU smoking after firing

[hexed mango]

bruh

[calm bison]

I’m pretty sure in BF3 and BF4 that wasn’t a thing

[hexed mango]

its on its smoke break

[calm bison]

Also I found the perfect song to play while playing Air Superiority

No it’s not a rickroll

https://youtu.be/L-4XsDQYDi4

[hexed mango]

100% rickroll

[calm bison]

It’s mighty wings by Cheap Tricks

It’s from the top gun soundtrack

[hexed mango]

ik i was joking

[scenic tartan]

you ever notice that street fighter 2 copied it pretty clearly
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-14W5XTqL5U

at least for that beginning hook it changes quite a bit after that. might be a coincidence

[calm bison]

Yeah

[fiery shoal]

consistently dropping 50+ kill games with around 130 points, and still losing

and its not even close either

if there was any indication of sbmm its how shitty my teammates are and i have to carry to win

[next onyx]

I had a bit of a play and it feels like there might be on?

Or I might be lucky.

I dunno.

First game in a while I got my LCMG out and went 45-2.

But than again battlefield has always been like this.

[hidden sand]

You can flank, and flank, but if you're teammates ain't pushing it's not happening. That's how I feel with using the tank on BT Exposure.

The tank can (surprisingly) clear out the first objective on Exposure pretty easily.

[next onyx]

Talking about tonk. They're fun on flashback rush.

I even shelled an f35 that was stolen by the enemy team haha.

[dire quest]

Tank superiority is fun when no infantry is allowed

[hidden sand]

Makes sense. Jets fly like they do in BFV but worse, so they're capable of being shot down by tanks again.

So that's one benefit of their flight models I gusss lmao.

[next onyx]

SU57 straight up superior.

[fiery shoal]

i know its team oriented, im just 1 above average player out of 64 teammates

[hidden sand]

Weird they even considered making the SU57 have a different turnrate with the flight models in the state they are.

[fiery shoal]

its just all day today was a bunch of losses while im wrecking

[calm bison]

I’m glad they added those brackets to show you where your gun is facing

It was in V on launch

But not 2042

Until recently

[hidden sand]

While prefer faction varied vehicles, wasn't a good idea for the SU57.

[fiery shoal]

@next onyx and yea, short barrel, extended high power mags is ridiculous

[next onyx]

The best game is when both sides are shit but you're the one that keeps killing and farming.

It's fucking stupid.

[fiery shoal]

the reload is like... .3 seconds slower?

[next onyx]

Hmm yes I didn't realise that extended mags were that nimble for it.

[calm bison]

The F35 has better yaw so that’s something I guess

[fiery shoal]

im just guessing, i didnt notice it being much slower than the subsonsic extended mag

[next onyx]

Subsonic close combat is a lot of fun though I will not lie. It's like a closer ranged m5.

Yeah I used high powered a lot when I realised how busted they were.

[calm bison]

But yeah the F35 is pretty terrible in the maneuverability department

[hidden sand]

Same. Really useful to have when you're needing to use thirdperson.

[calm bison]

This is why we need F/A 18s in AOW

I would kill to have super hornets in AOW

[hidden sand]

Which weapon are y'all talking about, Way?

[next onyx]

I don't think an F18 would help a lot.

Uhhh The VSS.

[calm bison]

If Tom cruise can do it

[next onyx]

It does whatever the fuck the dm7 does better.

[calm bison]

So can some guy on the internet

[fiery shoal]

alrioght time for food

[next onyx]

They need to actually balance it similarly to that, Have short barrel give it the same detriment close combat has on the Dm7.

[calm bison]

Honestly

[next onyx]

"Why use the VSS"
Suppressor and full auto.

[hidden sand]

I just want something similar to the Selbstlader m1916.

[next onyx]

I lvoed that gun back in bf1.

[calm bison]

Th DM7 with a wrapped suppressor and 6x scope is a huge meme but it’s weirdly effective

As long as you’re using standard ammo

[next onyx]

By the way, The LCMG has a similar firing sound model as it.

Well.

[hexed mango]

they should nerf the close-range of the bsv so that its more promoted as an actual dmr

[next onyx]

On its bf1 variant.

Remember that mettalic ring after you fired the m1916 on bf1? @hidden sand

[dire quest]

Bsv-m needs a buff

[calm bison]

I honestly still think the DM7 is the best dmr that’s actually a DMR

[next onyx]

The LCMG has that weird dom dom dom sound that you can hear in the background as it fires and I kinda love it.

SVK is kinda better.

[calm bison]

Eh

[next onyx]

I end up calling it the ZVK because of the ZH 29 from bf5.

[calm bison]

DM7 has the cooler model and reload

[hidden sand]

Yup. The animations and sound design for the m1916 were very well done, which is why I want it back tbh. Outside of how much it rewarded you for pacing your shots and aim.

[next onyx]

I just loved it because it was a really cool weapon on bf1.

Bf5 version was a bit whatever. Easily overshadowed but ironically felt more balanced than the other semis.

[calm bison]

Current theory is that portal is getting BF1 soon

It’s a theory

[dire quest]

Why not give the bsv the same fire rate as the k30 in automatic mode? Seems fair

[calm bison]

Everyone is basing it off of the new knife

A knife

Makes people think that BF1 is being added

[hidden sand]

Makes no sense. They've used plenty of BF1 content already

[calm bison]

Sounds more far fetched than some US conspiracy theories but yeah

[next onyx]

Just need more Bad co 2 and bf3 maps.

Give us grand bazaar and damavand peak.

[calm bison]

I would like to see either Damavand or Seine Crossing make a return

[next onyx]

Seine crossing is that urban map in paris correct?

[calm bison]

Yes

Besides metro

[hexed mango]

ive gotten almost 100 F-35 destructions today

[next onyx]

Honestly I've always been drawn to that map.

It's kinda weird.

[calm bison]

It’s a fan favorite

But it didn’t have the same level of hype compared to grand bazaar

[next onyx]

I never got to experience full on 64p bf3 cause you know, Old gen consoles.

[calm bison]

Which was remastered in Hardline

[next onyx]

China town!

That was pretty fun.

[calm bison]

Yeah

Grand Bazaar looks to be remastered in BF mobile

[hidden sand]

I can easily see Amoured Shield getting added.

[calm bison]

Also

[hidden sand]

It's a very easy map to remake and uses a lot of caspian border assets.

[next onyx]

Alborz mountains, Yes?

[calm bison]

The alleyway from the German spawn to B on Devastation gives me huge Grand Bazaar vibes.

It’s the one with the neon sign

[next onyx]

Yeah maybe. But due to the reception of large open spaces I think dice is a bit too concerned.

[hidden sand]

It had Tank Destroyers on it.

[next onyx]

Battle of the bulge turns into bullshit during flashback rush if your team cannot gain the initiative.

[calm bison]

What are modern TDs?

The most I can think of are those Swedish tanks that look like doorstops

[hidden sand]

Attacking or defending? You can literally, if your aim is good, singlehandedly hold off the attackers in BoTB.

With the scar.

[next onyx]

Defence. Vehicles can so very easily overwhelm you.

First sector I think it's fine to lose it easily.

But in my last experience I just didn't have a team that did anything.

But those end of round themes are kinda groovey.

[calm bison]

In the face of the Warsaw Pact, a general need for extra firepower was identified. In the late 1960s, West Germany developed the Kanonenjagdpanzer, essentially a modernized World War II Jagdpanzer mounting a 90 mm gun.

[next onyx]

Thanks for the reminder.

The mg3 would be cool to see again.

But that'd be obnoxious to deal with.

[calm bison]

Not if it was an MMG

[hidden sand]

Wait, is FB Rush on current gen 128?

Because I'm kinda surprised you said that tbh.

[hexed mango]

i dont think it is

[hidden sand]

If it's 64 that would make sense too though.

For it to be overwhelming.

[next onyx]

Flash back rush is 16v16 and it's a lot of fun.

[dire quest]

The featured experiences are the same across gens

[next onyx]

Just feels good not to be shot in places you can't predict from most of the time.

[hexed mango]

i wished forced crashes counted as vehicles destroyed

[next onyx]

The only annoying part is that there's an equal amount of maps, So if you want to switch to attack and defence on particular maps you have to rely on a team scramble.

Otherwise if you're defending on Arica harbour, If you stay. You'll be defending again when it comes round again.

But it's very jammy.

[hidden sand]

Wait doesn't Portal switch teams now?

Weird.

[next onyx]

It is.

It's weird here's how it's working for rush.

It's constantly swapping me between attack and defence.

Because that's part of the rotation.

Alongside my team.

[hidden sand]

Not surprising, a lot of Portal stuff is being weird lately. Especially Tank and Air superiority

[calm bison]

Like in BFV?

[dire quest]

Did you use the template for the superiority modes? Has the rules editor already filled in with code for stuff like that

[next onyx]

Maybe I wasn't caught in the team swap cycle.

[lapis perch]

wtb contextual lean, if not manual lean hnnnnng

[hidden sand]

Speaking of tank superiority, that mode displays perfectly the problems with tanks atm.

Especially the lack of amour angling.

It really is who shoots first wins, unless you're using HE. Then you always lose.

[hexed mango]

i just made a server, on the website, set its gamemode to custom -> air superiority
then set the maps, etc, then in restrictions, selected 2042, and then set the stuff i wanted to set, 24 jets on both sides, and done

[next onyx]

Hmm yes 7.92 FG42.

[lapis perch]

I'd prefer an M240 or QBB

and*

MG36

[dire quest]

Use the template and go to rules editor and everything will be set up, fair warning since rules editor is used, xp is restricted

[hexed mango]

mine works fine...

[hidden sand]

That was random, Way lol

Unless I'm missing something here.

[hexed mango]

forced crashed are just an xp event i was referring to @dire quest

[calm bison]

When can we get Billy Joel on the 2042 radio

Like c’mon

How can you not have it

Who cares if Europeans probably haven’t heard of the guy

He’s still cool

[next onyx]

I was looking at the calibre of the Mg3, Thought of the mg42 and remembered that the German weapons shared that 7.92 ammo type between multiple guns as they would.

[hidden sand]

The FG42 was in BF1942 though so theres a chance of it coming back.

Ah that makes sense.

[next onyx]

My train of thought is random and obnoxious it's just what happens.

[hexed mango]

legal + $ probably

[calm bison]

I’d pay

[next onyx]

But yeah if they add the fg42 I will beg Alex to convince everyone to add my FG42.

[hexed mango]

i mean for ea

[calm bison]

Still

[next onyx]

Add a tier 1 skin, Make it what it was like in bf5 and more a so bit better.

[hexed mango]

just ask vanta ez addition to game no sweat

[hexed mango]

no portal weapons/stuff have mastery

[calm bison]

If this is like CoD ghosts where I have to pay to have a snoop dogg announcer then I’d do the same for Billy Joel in 2042

[next onyx]

If they add the fg42 to portal I will then ask.

[hidden sand]

See I wish they'd let us tweak individual weapon and vehicle stats.

What could be really useful about that is community wide playtests.

[next onyx]

Weird to think I mained the BAR a lot considering that it killed in 20 MS quicker.

[hexed mango]

an unfortunate series of events

[hidden sand]

But that way we could make BFV styled weapons ourselves.

[next onyx]

Honestly looking back at bf5, What they've done with the drop off is obnoxious.

I love bf5's gunplay but at the same time now that I've been using guns with some range it's a bit annoying looking back on.

If they do re add the fg42 through portal and then add it to the main experience, Make it exactly the same as it was on bf5 but with some more modifications like a 45 round mag, Etc.

[hidden sand]

This is a reallly, really hot take but if you exclude the animations and attachment system, I personally feel like BF2042 has the best gunplay in the series.

I have never had my aim rewarded this much in a BF game.

So I can agree with that.

[next onyx]

Yeah I will admit I do enjoy the gunplay more to a degree here but balance wise things aren't so confident.

I dunno.

I feel like guns like the m5 are pretty useless.

Why use that when submachine guns exist.

And if you want an assault rifle use the SCAR.

[hidden sand]

Yup that's the biggest problem, balance per usual.

[hexed mango]

man the active radar missiles literally give 0 chance for flares

[wide shore]

You playin BF4?

[hidden sand]

Yeah, there's really no incentive to use the M5, but at the same time, what would you want them to do with it?

[hexed mango]

me?

[wide shore]

Yeah

[hexed mango]

no

[wide shore]

When did 2042 get active radar missiles?

[next onyx]

Since launch.

[hidden sand]

They've been there since launch.

[next onyx]

They're bullshit like always.

[wide shore]

Is it a jet thing?

[next onyx]

Yeah.

[hexed mango]

ye

[wide shore]

Ah

That explains it.

[next onyx]

40 to 50 easy points of damage.

[tame cobalt]

Cold take

[hidden sand]

See what's hilarious about vehicles in BF2042 is that you can exactly what they did.

[next onyx]

I don't think that's too bad because back on 5 it was the same.

[hidden sand]

They opened up BF4, wrote down every option for the vehicles they're adding, and called it a day.

[next onyx]

Everyone ran anti tank and some of the options were pathetic like 2 pounder vallie mk8.

[hidden sand]

Without any consideration on if they'd actually do well.

[hidden sand]

Really? I haven't seen much praise of it.

[next onyx]

They just need to fix mouse input.

I'm starting to understand what people are saying with how muddy it feels.

[hidden sand]

Though now that I think about it I haven't really seen much of anything said about it outside of balance and input.

[next onyx]

It feels like my movement is inconsistent.

The mouse movement.

I can flick on a guy naturally but then I'm over doing it on the exact same scenario and miss completely.

I go to a game with actual mouse input and it feels so, so snappy.

[tame cobalt]

Bloom fiasco at launch overshadowed it, but i saw lots of praise for it once they fixed it

Only bfv comes close

in gunplay

[hidden sand]

How is tracking for you?

[hidden sand]

Fair.

[next onyx]

In this game? I feel like my input is congested.

I end up fiddling but it's not so responsive.

[hexed mango]

infantry combat = 9.75/10 (buff joe biden)

[hidden sand]

In any. I have good framerates, but tracking with the mouse feels very snappy but not in a good way.

[dire quest]

Does the bolte driver seat get any weapons?

[hidden sand]

Yes, mines and rocket launcher.

[dire quest]

How to unlock rockets?

[hidden sand]

Just by getting kills with the gunner seat.

Or the gunner seat getting kills, which then gives driver assists.

[dire quest]

Can this be done in solo?

[hidden sand]

Yeah, it can.

[dire quest]

Was wondering...how about tank superiority, but instead of tanks...Bolte's? Bolte Superiority?

[hexed mango]

25mm or 30mm on jets, whats better?

[dire quest]

Would anyone be interested in a 96 player bolte superiority mode? 24 vs 24 Bolte's, each a 2 seater making it 48v48, which is 96 players

[hidden sand]

It'd probably be a lot more balanced than Tank Superiority.

[lament plank]

That would require people actually spawning in the gunner seat which never happens 🙄

[dire quest]

Does everyone have the rockets unlocked tho?

[dire quest]

Can't spawn as infantry so no choice

[lament plank]

Considering I still get into condors where people don’t have the repair option…I doubt everyone has rockets

[hidden sand]

You can also reduce squads to 2 per squad, requiring that people spawn on their driver/gunner.

[dire quest]

That's what worries me, some will have rockets, some won't

[hidden sand]

Thing is, the rockets require you be facing your enemt

Which allows you to deal dmg to them through the windows

[hexed mango]

boltes suck

[dire quest]

Is there any other 2 seater vehicles in 2042?

[hexed mango]

why does it have to be 2 seaters tho

[next onyx]

There's at and St choppers.

Try latv4 superiority. Ban 30 and 50 mm's and work off the miniguns.

[dire quest]

Oof I'm not even sure how to ban certain vehicle seats

[next onyx]

I'd assume there's someway to force people to spawn in basic latv4's.

[hidden sand]

I'll suggest adding options to disable specific vehicle equipment in the Portal server.

[next onyx]

Have cars automatically blow up with 30mms and 50mms.

[hidden sand]

Cause currently there's no options to.

You can disable specific weapon attachments though so it's definitely doable at least.

[hexed mango]

talking to people in my server, the general consensus is that the F-35 is a bit more maneuverable than the SU-57
seems there was a nerf sometime around 3.0 that reduced the SU's rolling/turning in favor of speed
making it a less viable option for some situations

[next onyx]

So they nerfed one plane to make another good instead of making one good.

Making the general air combat clunky.

[hidden sand]

The jets need to be on equal footing until flight models are improved.

[hexed mango]

ye

kinda sucks

SU-57 should get a speed buff

the 25mm was buffed in the last update, but imo the 30mm should also be buffed

25mm is supposed to be the fast, less damage one
which it is
but the 30mm does barely more damage and overheats super super fast

SU has a top speed of 430-435 (somewhere around there)
F-35 has a top speed of 420

[chrome fox]

flares should have a longer cooldown

forgot about bsvm needing a buff

[hexed mango]

the fucking what

[tame cobalt]

Lol

[hexed mango]

no way in hell the bsv needs a buff

it already got one

its already too op

[tame cobalt]

Yes dice, buff bsvm

Oh no he took it personally and seriously

yikes!

[tame cobalt]

Oh no he took it personally and seriously

[chrome fox]

bsvm and k30

buffs needed

[hexed mango]

buff chad mackay

[chrome fox]

mackay isnt OP

he needs buffs

[tame cobalt]

buff crossbow so it shoots 5 bolts at once in a horizontal line

The overall flight physics needs a complete overhaul imo, not just equal turning speed…BF3 BF4 planes were just on point and fun to play

[magic harness]

Same

Asia/Africa is dead on weekdays 😩

[ebon fern]

Also why would you get rid of camera plane roll function, the camera is turning with plane which just feels akward and insanely stupid

[silk surge]

I wish you could C5 launch in AOW 😔 So many insane Battlefield moments came from that.

I think you can only do it with the PORTAL factions, but 2042 soldiers can't.

[iron pine]

Oh my bad ill hush

[foggy halo]

Playing bfv

[hexed mango]

nah

play till he is 50

ez

miami dolphins

[white geyser]

He's still with the Buccaneers, probably no other place for him to go

[dire quest]

Is tank superiority really the only vehicle for ground superiority? No other worthy vehicles?

[white geyser]

Alright, just an hour ago I did try the ground superiority mode, but not the best.

[hexed mango]

doesn’t his contract technically end tho

[hexed mango]

mav

[white geyser]

Nope

[dire quest]

128 player mav superiority?

[hexed mango]

then why was he talking about going to the dolphins in that ESPN interview

[white geyser]

It was fake news...

[hexed mango]

no, use tanks and mav and infantry
MAV is an anti-infantry tank, so it works well in combination with MBT and infantry

if you want to be funky, LCAA superiority would be hilarious

[tame cobalt]

can't u also use bolte to missile barrage tanks and dodge their fire

[hexed mango]

yeah but bolte sucks

[tame cobalt]

Y

[dire quest]

Also ai cant spawn in bolte

[tame cobalt]

[tame cobalt]

What's wrong with it

Too squishy?

[hexed mango]

it’s shit

[hexed mango]

ok i just read up, he still has 1 more year with bucs, but the dolphins were interested in him

https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/34064218/tampa-bay-buccaneers-qb-tom-brady-addresses-reports-rift-bruce-arians-interest-joining-miami-dolphins

[hexed mango]

solution: turn off ai

[last swift]

who cares

[hexed mango]

i got my server to full capacity easily

just give it time and patience

promote it in #portal (i asked mozzy, he said that was fine)

like just send a pic of the server or smth idk

[hybrid lake]

They nerfed it to shit. 30mm canon overheats super quick and the rockets don't deal as much damage anymore

[tame cobalt]

That's dumb.

[hybrid lake]

it was quite overpowered before though, so it was logical

[tame cobalt]

I guess they just decided bolte doesn't work fundamentally in this game so they made it completely unviable so no one would choose it anymore.

[hybrid lake]

glad I got it to T1 before it was nerfed haha

[dire quest]

The ai do help make the battle feel larger tho

[last swift]

same

[hybrid lake]

but not max progression and mastery, so not that many will join

[hybrid lake]

ayyy

[tame cobalt]

Bolte can be nerfed like that, but then it should have its own spawn category (light tank).

[hybrid lake]

it used to be in the category with LATV4 and Hovercraft, but didn't fit there

[tame cobalt]

Yep, there should be a third one for bolte and other similar vehicles that don't exist in the game rn

[dire quest]

To be fair, when you use the template for the new modes, it comes with the rules editor already filled in for easy editing, and doing so automatically restricts xp

[hybrid lake]

honestly I think it's in the right category right now, but just needs a little buff

[hybrid lake]

that's true

[dire quest]

If anyone wants to edit the time and score on the two new modes basically use the template and you can edit the score from there, then add a new rule for the time limit

[tame cobalt]

Pog

[hybrid lake]

Finished my most painful grind to a t1 mastery thusfar

Tuk-Tuk T1 done ☑️

[bronze steeple]

1200kills tuktuk

[hybrid lake]

just 800, but still as painful haha

[hexed mango]

this

[hexed mango]

yeah but you have to use the rule editor for that, and by just making my own fresh server on the browser there are no rules, allowing it to be full xp

and that’s how i’ve been grinding jets

[hexed mango]

how’d you do it

just camping on cq kale?

[hybrid lake]

portal -> find cq kaleidoscope maps (or go normal cq)
sit in Tuk-Tuk somewhere in the back with a soflam and throw prox sensors on an objective

AI mode for the T3, then PVP for the rest

[hexed mango]

do you have to be driving the tuktuk or can you be in the back, i’m assuming the former

[hybrid lake]

you can be in the back, but only assist work with prox sensors and soflam

[hexed mango]

oh nice

[hybrid lake]

killing people from the passenger seat with guns doesn't work

[hexed mango]

i might try doing that

[hybrid lake]

tbf, it's the rarest t1 I think. Cuz it's such a pain to grind

I died a LOT

[hexed mango]

i wish you could use gadgets for the 4x4, that one is probably harder ngl

[hybrid lake]

it spawns on way more maps and modes

[hexed mango]

yeah but you’d have to roadkill or use prox

[hybrid lake]

tuk-tuk is limited to Kaleidoscope and Hourglass (has only 2 spawns)

and only in conquest

[hexed mango]

ye

ima try doing that in cq with ai for T3 then grind portal lel

[hybrid lake]

arguably tuktuk, 4x4 and sportsman are the 3 rarest

[hexed mango]

i’ve got nothing but time

[hexed mango]

ye

[hybrid lake]

what I suggest is try drifting into the AI, cuz they are hardcoded to avoid you, but using handbrake drive you can trick them

then still it's tough haha

[hexed mango]

do you not get assists in ai or is it just hard to

[dire quest]

This only applies when using the template, not creating a new game from the mode. The template has the rules editor already filled in

[hexed mango]

ye ik which is why i don’t use that

[hybrid lake]

you do, but the AI shoot you with an M5 Recoilless so quickly taht sitting in the back with a Soflam doesn't do that much. It's quicker to just roadkill them

[hexed mango]

k

[hybrid lake]

AI only gets you to 240 kills, you need to get to 800 haha

[hexed mango]

ye

alrighty well ima head to sleep now, it’s 3am

[dire quest]

Also 128 player wildcat superiority exists now lol

[hybrid lake]

good night!

[hexed mango]

thanks

[dire quest]

Take care morbius

[hexed mango]

thanks

[late scarab]

So I'm a bit of a rookie, so a rookie question... Is there a standard TDM Game Mode on BF2042?

I play plenty of Conquest but is there a TDM mode anywhere?

[bleak tide]

Portal

It’s dumb that they haven’t added any new modes

I use bots in my portal server to keep it fun while other players join but you get no xp from it

Even when the lobby is full

Makes no sense

[hybrid lake]

just join other people's servers :))

[bleak tide]

Which are also empty with bots?

[hybrid lake]

just don't allow bots in your server

then you get full xp

and mastery

[bleak tide]

But then no one stays because it’s dead as fuck

[hybrid lake]

I've recently really been enjoying the 128p chaos rush modes.

they've been full most of the time

[bleak tide]

I’ve had a server open for 5 hours and only 4 people joined

[hybrid lake]

people don't join if it's restricted xp

or less people will
