battlefield-2042

[surreal portal]

So no premium bullshit?

[hexed mango]

nada

there's a battlepass if you want extra skins, but all gameplay content is in the free pass, no need to pay

[surreal portal]

Wonderful. Can’t wait to play

[surreal portal]

That’s pretty good from Dice. Fingers crossed they keep the content up. I know they’re remaking kaleidoscope

Hopefully that’s somewhat playable for you guys in august

[hexed mango]

they're also remaking renewal, and adding portal guns to aow

[fiery solar]

I came to the conclusion for people who didn’t play during season 1 to obtain the weapons and specialist will just have to be a specific level to get them

[left hollow]

Yeah I'm actually looking forward to the kaleidoscope remake

[fiery solar]

What’s changing in kaleidoscope

[left hollow]

I can link it

[fiery solar]

Alr thx

[left hollow]

Adding cover, changing sitelines ect

[fiery solar]

The most I’ve seen is an image of an objective turning into a camp

Does the link also have anything regarding renewals changes

[hexed mango]

thats from like 3 months ago, those changes are limited and not everything theyre doing

[surreal portal]

Wait so if you weren’t playing last season you can’t get any of the weapons and stuff?

[hexed mango]

last season?

[fiery solar]

I don’t know no one knows till it happens ig also this is the first season

[hexed mango]

they will add a way for you to get the weapons, we just dont know how yet

[surreal portal]

So there wasn’t a season in November?

[left hollow]

https://www.ea.com/games/battlefield/battlefield-2042/community/battlefield-core-feedback-maps-next-steps

[fiery solar]

Probably levels like how they locked a few specialists and weapons

[left hollow]

If you have a look they show some of the things they're planning to do

[surreal portal]

It’s EA they’ll probs put it behind pay walls 🙂

[tame cobalt]

Just wish manifest CQ128 wasn't so flawed in layout

Cuz it's enjoyable to play on

[fiery solar]

Aw man they’re deleting parts of the map

[radiant jewel]

Is it just me that wants 128 breakthrough back

[fiery solar]

I do too

I don’t understand what’s wrong with too much chaos I loved it

[fierce epoch]

The mayhem was fun ngl

[radiant jewel]

Just loved the mayhem of it all

Just seems to easy and peaceful 64

[surreal portal]

Laggy servers maybe

[fiery solar]

I only have 1 clip of breakthrough on my ps5 and it involved a helicopter coming out from the sky shooting down at me and being blown up and crashing into a few people. I want that back

[tame cobalt]

I farded

[surreal portal]

That’s true battlefield right there

[fiery solar]

So we can play old bf3 and bc2 maps with 128 players but they take away 128 player breakthrough cause it’s too much

[fiery solar]

I look at the clip everyday cause we’ll never get that back

[hexed mango]

ikr

[fiery solar]

Unless they add 128 breakthrough to portal which they should’ve

Unless they did I never check portal no more

[hexed mango]

nah they havent added breakthrough to portal yet

its tdm, vehicle tdm, free for all, air/ground superiority, conquest and rush

[fiery solar]

Didn’t they make some maps like I think orbital and renewal were still 128 player size for 64 players

[hexed mango]

exposure and discarded had a glitch that used the 128PT layout but for 64 players

[fiery solar]

For season 1 or sometime in season 1

[hexed mango]

it seems to be reverted as of now

it was for like a week after 1.1's release

but i played breakthrough on exposure yesterday, and it was normal 64p

i really want to find a place to use the stealth heli cause its op

[tame cobalt]

Mackay purpose: going beast mode

[hexed mango]

precisely

[arctic grove]

Apparently the fanbase complained but i enjoyed the chaos

[hexed mango]

same

ima just play exodus cq and hope i get a stealth heli

[tame cobalt]

Ayo am i drunk or did i just bunny hop when i landed with parachute?

[hexed mango]

nah

[tame cobalt]

Honestly, i hope they stick with CQ128 in the next game

[hexed mango]

why doesnt stealth mode block radar missiles :(

[tame cobalt]

CQ128 actually has real potential, they just haven't fully nailed the map design for it yet, but i think the experience they're getting with 2042 will lead to some epic CQ128 maps the next time they try it

And things like being able to call in quad bikes is missing

[arctic grove]

128 BT has potential too but they killed it off

[open tangle]

I don’t like conquest with a 128. Players. Feels overwhelming at times.

[surreal portal]

Are there specialists on the portal mode? Or does it revert back to the old class system

[fiery dawn]

Depends which portal mode

There are 2042 modes and older game modes

[hexed mango]

i got locked onto while in stealth mode 👍

[fiery dawn]

Has happened to me before too

How’s your F-35 progress?

[hexed mango]

mid

[fiery dawn]

Last I heard you were like a third of the way

[hexed mango]

im at 500

[fiery dawn]

Nice

[hexed mango]

tbh tho i wanna grind stealth while they're op

[fiery dawn]

Might as well

I’m at around 900 on both stealth helis actually

[hexed mango]

what modes

[fiery dawn]

Breakthrough or Conquest idk. I haven’t been grinding them just grabbing them at the start of games or whenever I see one available

[surreal portal]

How many hours you guys got?

[fiery dawn]

150-ish

[surreal portal]

Oh wow I thought it’d be more than that

[next onyx]

160 worth of play time.

[fiery dawn]

Sorry no 198 hours. Just checked

But I’ve let it idle here and there so idk my actual in-game playtime

[surreal portal]

Ye ye it’s quite inaccurate

[fiery dawn]

I took a long break before season 1 came out

[surreal portal]

Don’t wanna join a lobby with you in. You’ll smoke me 😳

[hexed mango]

probably not

i suck

[little lagoon]

Battlefieldtracker seems semi accurate until we get our actual stat tracker in aug/sept

[tame cobalt]

Checking in to verify that orbital and exposure are still the best conquest 128 maps of all time ✅

[fiery dawn]

We’re getting an in-game stat tracker??

[surreal portal]

I always went by a saying from Obama, blame the game, not the player

[little lagoon]

Manifest is the best. Sorry

[hexed mango]

lmao

[little lagoon]

From what I recall yes

[hexed mango]

after 700 hours, im only level S100

[fiery dawn]

I hope that’s true

Would be nice

[hexed mango]

technically S092 ingame

but trn's tracker says im S080

[surreal portal]

Bro dice rlly changed everything up with this game, classes, level up system, maps etc

[hexed mango]

tbh im liking it tho :)

[tame cobalt]

Sadly it is too flawed in its layout for me to add it

[hexed mango]

lucky. idk im never able to get them, someone always snags it

[surreal portal]

I’m yet to play. I’m so excited. Gotta buy the series x now then I can fully enjoy it

[little lagoon]

Sad day. My favourite map of the base game. So many good spot B, C and D are so fun

[still vault]

You always have #stats

[fiery dawn]

I usually load into the match really fast

[hexed mango]

that just uses trn

[fiery dawn]

TRN doesn’t work for me so no I don’t

[hexed mango]

yeah trn didnt work for me for a while

then one day it decided to work

[fiery dawn]

Tried lots of fixes and tried to get support on TRN’s website but nothing

[still vault]

If you EA profile has disabled tracking then it wont work

[arctic grove]

I think dice should add them to portal, but no the 2042 ai class stuff isn’t in portal

[hexed mango]

plus, my team only gets 1 heli. so its not like ima be getting it anytime soon

[fiery dawn]

I’m aware of the common problems but I’ve gone through everything and it just can’t find my account for some reason.

[hexed mango]

guess ill just grind F-35 and leave the stealth helis to someone else

[arctic grove]

Specialists are in portal as well and you can only select them when you play with 2042 in portal, sorry I read your message a bit incorrectly

[surreal portal]

Thank. The. Lord. 🙏 old games should remain how they were made

[surreal portal]

Shit.

[fiery dawn]

F-35 will be a steadier grind for you for sure

[arctic grove]

In 1942, 2 and 3 the old classes are there, not for 2042

[hexed mango]

only when you're playing 2042

[arctic grove]

Yea only with 2042

[west heron]

is there a glitch channel or can i ask a technical question here

[tame cobalt]

The flaw is that it is always strategically disadvantageous to successfully hold B.

[hexed mango]

time to waste my life

[hexed mango]

forums are probably best for a bug report

[fiery dawn]

And look good doing it 😎

[hexed mango]

exactly

since nobody ever joins my server ima just use the official one

[west heron]

its not really a bug report
just curious why an unlock for a vehicle says 120/120 but is still locked and won't give me the attachment

[fiery dawn]

Common bug

[hexed mango]

"not a bug"
describes a bug

[arctic grove]

Well not a full fledged report is what they meant

[fiery dawn]

I’ve had drum mags for the SFAR technically unlocked for weeks but still can’t use them. Really annoying

[west heron]

well i grinded the kills in solo so I didn't know for sure if it was truly a bug or not

[hexed mango]

true but contacting ea support might not be a bad idea, or posting it on forums (even tho i think 1000000 people alr have)

[fiery dawn]

It is a bug

[fallen field]

When server's back fully

[hexed mango]

?

[tame cobalt]

This bugs me so much. Makes me feel like I'm helping the team lose just because I'm playing at B. And B is so fun.

[arctic grove]

Is it just me or is the m5a3 reload a bit slow

[hexed mango]

just you 😎

[zealous patio]

Its a bug but you can fix it by unlocking other equipments ( i think )

[hexed mango]

excuse me

[arctic grove]

It’s way more satisfying and enjoyable when you’re going from an empty mag

[little lagoon]

?

[fiery dawn]

There seems to be limits on the number of each unique vehicle active at once in air superiority

[little lagoon]

Oh I see your other comment

You're not wrong. People usually only focus on b

The maps kind of just need a slight tweak in making things a taaddd bit closer

[tame cobalt]

It takes so many resources to hold B, the team that holds it loses almost everything else

[arctic grove]

Good thing the map reworks do exactly that

And redesign some of the models and what not on the maps as they are

I think renewal is going to it’s BT layout for CQ

[hexed mango]

im actually 5 destructions away from 500

[sick cradle]

@hexed mango are you playing bf3 rn ?

[little lagoon]

They've only confirmed renewal and kaleidoscope though, so who knows if they'll do more reworks

Also unpopular opinion I'm sure

But I actually like kaleidoscope

[arctic grove]

I heard from one guy a few months back they’d do each map

That’s my source

[hexed mango]

no

[fiery dawn]

[little lagoon]

I think Discarded is the worst map

[surreal portal]

The source: just trust it bro

[west heron]

When can I post an image?

[little lagoon]

Because they took away my village

[fiery dawn]

Never

[hexed mango]

never

!!regular

[tender pendant]

The Regular role is earned by users automatically who are active in chat and follow the server rules. With this role you can post/embed images, use some bot commands, and change what color you appear in chat.

[fiery dawn]

[little lagoon]

When I can

[arctic grove]

The thing about all the maps is you only feel like playing in so much of the map because the other side is like 400 meters away

[west heron]

Well I still don't know how to fix my issue, it's been days

[next onyx]

M5 reload is a bit on the slower side.

[little lagoon]

That's one of the problems I have with Vs pacific maps actually

[fiery dawn]

So it gives you regular automatically? How long do you have to be active?

[west heron]

shouldn't take days for the game to acknowledge that I unlocked a new weapon for a helicopter

[fiery dawn]

Same here

[little lagoon]

Upload to an image site

[hexed mango]

yes, no ideaa

[little lagoon]

Post link

Problem

Potentially solved

[fiery dawn]

Do you have any other upgrade unlocks for that heli left?

[surreal portal]

You just broke the system bro

[hexed mango]

it wont embed, but yes that's a solution

[tame cobalt]

nuh pacific storm goes hard

[surreal portal]

FBI coming to your house

[arctic grove]

I played a match of bt on those some weeks ago and that map is definitely larger than these I was kinda surprised since that’s a 2018 game

More specifically instead of ‘that map’ the one in the pacific trailer i meant

[little lagoon]

A lot of the maps do, but there's one specific one that's just way to big

[tame cobalt]

but the upzised version of wake island is kinda wacky

[arctic grove]

Yeah I think it’s wake island

[west heron]

https://imgur.com/a/IrXW8Uy

[arctic grove]

Map has like 900 different fallback points

[little lagoon]

Good luck the fbi will have to contact the RCMP first

[tame cobalt]

Wake island is an iconic map in other games, but for some reason they made it bigger in BFV and it became worse. I guess they made it bigger to accommodate breakthrough?

[little lagoon]

Is the problem the missle?

[fiery dawn]

Sometimes if you keep getting kills and unlock higher level upgrades it’ll give all of them to you at once. But only if you do this in a multiplayer match. It worked for me with a couple guns.

[arctic grove]

On breakthrough it just became boring after so long

[full burrow]

is there a setting to keep game sound playing when alt tabbed?

[surreal portal]

💀 fbi never gunna do that

[west heron]

the missile and the cannon pods yes, it says i got enough kills for both but it won't unlock

[arctic grove]

Normally BT has a few fallback points but that map just kept going

[tame cobalt]

Rip

[wise zodiac]

You darn Canadians. Did you let loose the militarized geese?!?

[hexed mango]

https://tenor.com/view/cachorro-rindo-michael-jackson-dog-laughing-gif-21272729

[little lagoon]

I don't use vehicles very much especially helps, just keep using it and see if they unlock is my best suggestion

[fallen field]

I'm am for me Canada's

[fiery dawn]

@west heron ^^^

[fallen field]

Hey

[little lagoon]

Haven't seen them in real life or in Exposure so I'm gonna say no

[marble wing]

Is the S1 badge bugged for you?

[surreal portal]

Couldn’t have agreed more 😍

[marble wing]

S1 badge progression

[west heron]

the reason i grinded these in solo is because its nearly impossible to get to play as a helicopter in regular multiplayer so that's not really a viable option

[wise zodiac]

You haven't seen the geese!??!

[hexed mango]

yeah that thing is fucked

mine is like 100 or so behind

[fiery dawn]

Until Dice fixes the bug, this is the only solution you’re gonna get sorry mate

[marble wing]

Does DICE know about it? Because it doesn't appear in the known issues and they didn't fix in the last update, despite being already bugged

[hexed mango]

i mean i told sam, he said he forwarded it

[tame cobalt]

IMO renewal cq128 is actually really fun on the objectives, the space between sectors is just what sucks

[west heron]

is it even a real bug? it's not on the list of known issues

[fiery solar]

And E1 apparently since they’re removing it

[fiery dawn]

Tons of people are having the issue so yeah of course it’s a bug

[little lagoon]

👀

[fiery dawn]

What else would it be

[wise zodiac]

https://youtu.be/WKFWvKhB-HQ

[hexed mango]

its Not A Bug? !ITS A Feature!?

[fiery solar]

Man I still wish the tornado was bigger in kaleidoscope so it wasn’t just a big stick doing nothing

[fiery dawn]

🤣

[fiery solar]

And I wish the path of tornadoes still appeared like in beta

[arctic grove]

Make tornadoes op

[little lagoon]

Did they dissect the brain and find the chip?

God bless Canada

[wise zodiac]

Too scared apparently!

[little lagoon]

Also why is there no natural disaster in exposure?

They drop that too?

[arctic grove]

Maybe just for that map

[little lagoon]

Weak

[wise zodiac]

A snowstorm?

[west heron]

also at the main menu it says 0/0 XP at the top right, is that a bug as well?

[little lagoon]

Bug

[arctic grove]

My theory is if one of the maps is more littoral/amphibious based, it’ll get a tsunami or some other flooding event

[little lagoon]

Fixed after one game for me

[little lagoon]

Just like bf4 ❤️

[little lagoon]

A blizzard would be wicked honest

[arctic grove]

Yea like flood zone, great concept to do again

[wise zodiac]

I want night maps.

[sand violet]

Anyone have a good DM7 build? I don't like using the BSVM

[wise zodiac]

Urban night maps.

[little lagoon]

Same!!!!!! I love night maps

[wise zodiac]

Like, Grand Bazaar at night.

[fiery solar]

A avalanche or snowstorm would be epic

[arctic grove]

Night maps are great so you can just see tracers and fire lighting things up, agree

[fiery solar]

If dice added more shelter soo the snowstorm could do damage

[surreal portal]

Nothing beats Shanghai’s levolution 😔

[arctic grove]

Breakaway may get a blizzard some time in the future, temporyal said something about it too

[little lagoon]

The nightmaps in 4 and 1 are my favourite

[little lagoon]

Don't tease

[hexed mango]

avalanche on exposure
blizzard (like hourglass) on breakaway
rainstorm/more intense lightning on orbital + manifest
flooding on discarded

[little lagoon]

A flood on discarded

[full burrow]

delete hourglass

[fiery solar]

Nothing beats bf4 levolution ever

[little lagoon]

Okay I hear you

Discarded would be fun

[arctic grove]

The storms on Kaleidoscope, orbital and manifest should be way stronger

[surreal portal]

Couldn’t have worded it better 😪

[little lagoon]

Problem is with floods

No diving

[arctic grove]

I love how orbital looks during the storm but it’s super brief

[hexed mango]

LCAA + MAV

[fiery solar]

If levolution was scripted and not to where the object could fall wherever they would’ve probably gone for better levolution

[wise zodiac]

I want destructible environments.

Fite me

[little lagoon]

The problem is infantry though

[hexed mango]

ignores the holes that all explosions make in the ground

[little lagoon]

Give me my hidey holes from bf1 and bc2 again

[fiery solar]

Holy shit I just hit a collat wjth ac 42

[full burrow]

battlefield 1 maps are pretty good

I want

[fiery solar]

The destructible village isn’t enough no one goes in those little homes I want to break something big

[surreal portal]

The forest map is the best

[wise zodiac]

Yeah, "holes in the ground" isn't a destructible environment.

[hexed mango]

its the environment being destroyed.

[full burrow]

yeah shotgun under the bridge

[fiery solar]

We want walls and buildings to crumble

[hexed mango]

they do tho

[surreal portal]

Fr that was too op or the smg 08/80 or whatever it’s called

[fiery solar]

We want to run a tank into large structures style of destruction

[hexed mango]

the huts on hourglass and discarded crumble

[arctic grove]

I mean yeah you have the lcaa and MAV so you don’t need to dive underwater but I genuinely question why that was scrapped out of the game but you can still get a different screen effect underwater

[fiery solar]

We want entire skyscrapers to collapse

[little lagoon]

Bc2 has the best destruction fight me

[hexed mango]

the walls on the buildings in exposure, morbital, manifest all get destroyed

[fiery solar]

We want cruise ships to explode

[full burrow]

I havent actually used shotguns much here but its cos I cant be asked to unlock the attachements

[wise zodiac]

I want reminiscent of BF4. Bad guys in building? Uhhh, what building? tank drives through the wall

[hexed mango]

there's a building in kale that has a scaffold on the top that can fall over

[fiery solar]

We want the crates in manifest to fly around and cause mayhem when 3 tornadoes hit the same spot

[hidden sand]

Tanks driving through walls in BF4 was so janky lol, it barely worked half of the time.

[hexed mango]

all the trees can be destroyed

the barriers, doors

[next onyx]

It's weird playing with tanks on cod because there's no destruction.

[arctic grove]

I’ve suggested that in the past but then you’d need hitboxes and those could glitch horribly

[wise zodiac]

... OoO, sO dEsTrUcTiBlE

[little lagoon]

Yeah tornados really aught to do more damage

They don't do shit really

[full burrow]

I loved all the vehicle variants in bf1, also artillery truck then one with just one at rocket on top, so fun to sit back with that

[next onyx]

Hey look sandbags. You can't drive into them cause they're a solid texture wall.

[full burrow]

cant rly do the same with tanks here

[fiery solar]

Tornadoes in this game for the coolest thing in the game don’t do shit

[hexed mango]

they used to do more but they nerfed them

[fiery solar]

That’s why I wish they made the tornadoes bigger in smaller maps

[hidden sand]

I wonder if they'll try to bring destruction in for GW maps in MW2.

[surreal portal]

Cod went to shit after bo2

[fiery solar]

Not nerf them

[little lagoon]

Beta talk?

[wise zodiac]

Yeah, but it was absolutely terrifying - being in a house, holding a key house and killing infantry, and the enemy team gets so pissed off they send a tank through the wall. Lol

[hexed mango]

no like pre-#3.3

[west heron]

look at that, i finally got to spawn as the heli i wanted and died in 10 seconds because THEY had the weapon that i should have had unlocked even though i don't

[little lagoon]

I remember them being decent in the beta

[full burrow]

since mw2 I havnt enjoyed any cod I tried on pc

[little lagoon]

Wait they nerfed them recently

[full burrow]

no that thats been many tho

on console sure tho

[fiery solar]

Cause now we can’t see a tornado knock down the signs in kaleidoscope cause they only spawn as a little stick in the background

[west heron]

paid $90 for this btw

[wise zodiac]

Fucking sandbags are LITERALLY SAND IN A POTATO SACK. So dumb that you can't destroy them by driving over them with a vehicle.

[little lagoon]

Did they nerf them for performance reasons?

[fiery solar]

We want smoke clouds to interact with objects that go through it

[hexed mango]

huh? smoke?

intereact?

[arctic grove]

And it’s generally worth that, that one annoying bug is most probably going to be fixed in august anyways, that’s something I doubt dice will sit on for very long

[full burrow]

oooh lets not stress the game out with any more performance need

[hexed mango]

like mackay's grapple in the beta

[tame cobalt]

The vehicle stickers and weapon charms are such useless cosmetics in this game

[hidden sand]

Destruction would be really cool to have in MW2. Wonder if they'll try it.

[next onyx]

To be fair the game engine hasn't been built around destruction as much as battlefield.

[little lagoon]

Leave my dinosaur out of this

[next onyx]

Frostbite was their new home engine that could handle that stuff.

[hexed mango]

i agree, the vehicle stickers need to not exist
im fine with the weapon charms tho

[arctic grove]

The vehicle stickers are definitely useless

[fiery solar]

But the destruction wjth a tank in COD WWII on that 1 mission was really good

[little lagoon]

Wait is this not frostbite?

[fiery solar]

I liked it at least

[wise zodiac]

To be fair, frostbite is a shitty engine.

[next onyx]

Cod has you run into weak walls while your launcher doesn't blow the actual walls open.

[little lagoon]

What engine is this?

[sand violet]

A massive rockslide on that new map would be sweet

[hidden sand]

Oh damn did you work on it?

[sand violet]

would have been

[full burrow]

make the part with a target sticker super reinforced and let people aim for it

[little lagoon]

Shitty engine for open world games for sure

[next onyx]

Frostbite might be difficult to work with but it's an engine specifically made for battlefield.

[west heron]

still can't seem to unlock those weapons even though i have enough kills to unlock them

[surreal portal]

BF4 was a George Foreman grill. If only 2042 could follow in its footsteps

[west heron]

even after playing a regular multiplayer game

[next onyx]

You diverge from that things are going to be difficult.

[little lagoon]

Are you trying to say this is a hulk hogan grill?

[arctic grove]

Reinstall if you have to Rax

[surreal portal]

It could become one. If Dice decide to up the gas and put on some steak

[hidden sand]

Frostbite was horrible for other developers because it was only ever made for BF. I wish people would actually read through what the developers said then rather than take things at face value.

[fiery solar]

I want to be able to go into every floor on these damn skyscrapers and every floor is a highly detailed office room where you can even use the computers

[arctic grove]

perfect way to put it

[little lagoon]

This

[wise zodiac]

I'm 100% sure there's way better engines to be utilized for Battlefield.

[arctic grove]

If I can’t play Tetris on them bad game

[fiery solar]

I want to play doom II on a computer in a highly detailed office room in battlefield 2042

[tame cobalt]

And it was bad for 2042 because it's trash

[hidden sand]

"Frostbite is shit move to UE" has to be one of the most annoying things to come out of that debacle.

[next onyx]

What other engine does what frostbite does?

[surreal portal]

If I can’t do my weekly grocery shop through those computers I’m leaving 1 star on yelp

[fiery solar]

Dice switch to Spider-Man engine pls

[little lagoon]

Okay so it still is frostbite for 2042

[wide shore]

As are most first party engines. It’s like expecting some new studio to use Naughty Dog’s proprietary engine.

[fiery solar]

Dice I want us to be able to build igloos in the fucking snow and j want it now

[next onyx]

What's the point in paying for a different engine, adding what you need to that when you have your very own home engine.

[little lagoon]

Dice should switch to the Monster Hunter World engine REengine cause the ai in MonHun is better

[wise zodiac]

To be fair, even devs for Battlefield have stated that Frostbite is extremely difficult to work with.

That doesn't really leave me feeling hopeful, to be honest.

[surreal portal]

I think Fortnite is a better engine ngl

[next onyx]

Yes Frostbite has issues. I'm not denying that but what is the point in going to a new engine and making that do what frostbite does.

[west heron]

i don't think that'll fix a server based progression issue

[fiery solar]

If too difficult why not use something less difficult

[arctic grove]

Maybe

[little lagoon]

Look if they are gonna add a trex mode they might as well do it right and use the REengine

[next onyx]

You've wasted time and money on an engine that'd be even more difficult to work with.

[fiery solar]

Dice I want to be able to dig up the sand in houseglass to reveal a 16k textured street

[hidden sand]

Never seen that, got a link? The only devs to come forward about that were BioWare devs. I'm sure frostbite has issues, every engine does, but I don't see point in speaking on things you don't know about.

[arctic grove]

In all seriousness if everything you can do won’t stop it, you’ll just have to wait for a update

[little lagoon]

Bro you can do that

[next onyx]

I remember Anthem devs having problems with it.

But that isn't battlefield.

That isn't a fps.

[little lagoon]

You just need to find the secret shovel in Orbital and bring it with you

[arctic grove]

Based on what bf fans want, the most perfect bf game ever made was MW2019 ground war

[surreal portal]

Anthem was such a huge flop. Good game before you finish it tho

[fiery solar]

I want every individual bit of sand to move when I walk through it

[fiery solar]

Stunning game too

[little lagoon]

Ew

[arctic grove]

That and elements of 1, 5 and 4

[surreal portal]

True and the fighting was better than Elden Ring

[next onyx]

Frostbite was a genuine upgrade over refractor and there's no need to upgrade unless this new engine can do even more.

[fiery solar]

Dice I want details in every bit of the map to a experation date on the bags of chips on the floor that get blown in the wind

[arctic grove]

Mix it all together and you’ve got the ultimate battlefield game

[fiery solar]

Expectation💀

[next onyx]

I just want to pat the pigeons.

[surreal portal]

Expiry? 😅

[fiery solar]

Yeah we want pigeons with up to 10 billion polygons

[little lagoon]

War pigeons must be brought back

[arctic grove]

Yeah just add classes and you are golden

[fiery solar]

I want to be able to smell the pigeon by just looking at it

[arctic grove]

Less vehicles, more infantry focus, classes. Bam bam

[arctic grove]

Wait, you want classes?

No

[tame cobalt]

Why would it be even more difficult to work with? If they're smart the modifications they make to UE5 wouldn't be harder to utilise than the rest of the engine, and UE5 shouldn't be hard to utilise at for a studio full of mostly new people—the vast majority of those new people are probably already familiar with UE

[west heron]

Do console plays get aim assist during crossplay?

[arctic grove]

I'm saying what they want

[little lagoon]

I think the only way classes get added back is if Premium and it's map system comes back

[arctic grove]

Oh gotcha

[fiery solar]

I want civilians inside the buildings playing Xbox while we fight whole wars

[little lagoon]

Which I'd be fine with tbh

[arctic grove]

Let’s all agree if this comes back no matter what the game is like it will be awful

[surreal portal]

Dice, I wanna interact with Sundance in more ways than putting my thumb up to say thanks

[next onyx]

If you make it into another frostbite with the same features you're going to very most likely get the same issues.

[arctic grove]

I'm fine with it, just not in 2042

Like do you mean the classic premium that separates the player base? If not my bad

[fiery solar]

Wait this kinda already does happen

[arctic grove]

Add it to the next BF game

Isn't gonna work in this game

[little lagoon]

Separates the player base

Like 1, 3 and 4

[arctic grove]

Ah yes, those games were great

Interesting, what makes you want that if you don’t mind me asking

[hexed mango]

• all vehicle tracks in sand are amazingly hot

[surreal portal]

Who actually likes the specialists? 💀

[hexed mango]

me

Rao is my daddy

[little lagoon]

Guaranteed more maps, but it's an easier money grab then just skins I feel.

[surreal portal]

Sundance is my wifey ngl

[arctic grove]

All my friends playing some paywalled shit while I'm stuck on the launch maps because I refuse to pay the price of the game 3x over

[little lagoon]

Cause hey heres a sp with 3-4 maps guaranteed

[surreal portal]

Gunna wed her one day

[arctic grove]

Me.

[hexed mango]

rip. wait until you figure out.

[little lagoon]

And at least one year

[fiery solar]

They made it look even better by making it not look like it’s a place texture that just appears when you go over it

[hexed mango]

ye

[little lagoon]

I do. I think it's a good addition to the series

[surreal portal]

🤨

[fiery solar]

I wish the sandstorm that goes through the map didn’t last for 10 seconds

The sandstorm takes 3 seconds to pass and it’s like nothing hallen

Happened

[little lagoon]

Lucky for you it's at least 30

[surreal portal]

See, I’m in no position to talk about the specialists as I’ve never played the game. But I’m like a classical player and change = nope in my mind

[wise zodiac]

I remember reading an article about their internal meeting blaming Halo & the frostbite engine for why 2042 didn't perform to their expectations.

[little lagoon]

Same (classic player) but I'm all for change. Keeps things fresh and you have to try new ideas

[fiery solar]

But when the sandstorm randomly appears and everything gets dark it’s like 7 minutes

[arctic grove]

The weather should be more dynamic, the storms last too short as well

[bronze steeple]

[arctic grove]

Sundance is my daddy

[fiery solar]

The storms suck

[surreal portal]

I guess it offers new playstyles from the old bf games but when they did so well why change now?

[tame cobalt]

I'm not even convinced frostbite is so special and UE5 would need a ton of reworking to do what BF needs. With UE5 they can probably achieve the same things with less work, giving them time to put extra work into making better results. UE5 is a beast and newbie devs already know it. Perfect for dice's situation

[hexed mango]

no, plus halo is doing worse rn

[arctic grove]

It should be a chance if you get a storm on Kaleidoscope, orbital, etc or not, and make that last the entire game

[fiery solar]

Kaleidoscope tornado should be buffed to the size of orbital version

[arctic grove]

The maps look great during the storms, I don’t mind them not doing much else

[little lagoon]

Just try something. Throw shit at the wall and see what sticks you know

[fiery solar]

I also love how the clouds move in the sky according to where the tornado is

[hexed mango]

hourglass sandstorm should be refit and put into other maps as a huge thunder storm

[west heron]

Just got sniped by an LMG

[arctic grove]

Does hourglass still get a tornado?

[fiery solar]

The tornado in hourglass has to be the biggest in the game

[fiery solar]

Yes

But not when the storm cloud is visible

[hexed mango]

yes, but also a sandstorm, that covers like the entire map

[little lagoon]

I haven't seen a natural disaster in a bit actually

Kind of wish the portal maps got em

[arctic grove]

That’s pretty cool, haven’t seen it in a bit so I asked

[fiery solar]

When you see the lights go on but there’s no storm in sight there’s a higher chance of a tornado

[arctic grove]

The portal maps could have an option in the editor for them but i guess you’d maybe have to code their trajectories on those maps

And what they can and can’t destroy

[hexed mango]

there is an option

but portal maps just dont have storms

[hallow sierra]

ok pp isnt dat bad

[fiery solar]

Wish they had the halo map creator so we could do something

[hallow sierra]

hipfire is good sometimes

[fiery solar]

And hen the game will live on forever

[hexed mango]

even halo doesnt have forge anymore lol

[fiery solar]

Must suck for halo players

[hexed mango]

halo infinite

2042

[fiery solar]

And make it a new thing the best map contest

[west heron]

ok come the fuck on, i just unlocked a scope for the AK-47 which happened the instant I got the kill so it can't be the same issue with the helicopter unlocks

[tame cobalt]

Common BF W

[west heron]

seriously whats the deal

[hexed mango]

W

[fiery solar]

Like the block from fortnite the best maps gets released to AOW for a month

[little lagoon]

They are updating the editor right?

So maybe storms in the portal maps 👀

[hexed mango]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[fiery solar]

The next update to the editor should be a map editor

[fiery dawn]

I have at least 7 or 8 attachments that I’ve gotten enough kills for that have/had the same exact issue you’re having with the helicopter

[hexed mango]

the editor already has an option for storms

[fiery solar]

Or let me give a little map 16 tornadoes

[tame cobalt]

I'm so glad EA seems to know BF is a goldmine and they need to get their shit together

[fiery solar]

I think he means bc2 and bf3 naps

[little lagoon]

Oh

[fiery solar]

And the others

[little lagoon]

And 1942

[wise zodiac]

Can't wait for a map creator

[hexed mango]

its just that the portal maps dont have it implemented lol

[wise zodiac]

That'll be fun

[hexed mango]

i'd rather have more base-game content than a map editor

[little lagoon]

Why aren't the 1942 maps in aow? Btw

[hexed mango]

cause they fucking suck.

[next onyx]

They're not the best maps to play.

[fiery solar]

Wish there was a option for hourglass to be permanently in the storm in the editor

[little lagoon]

Eeeeeeehhhhhh I like the winter one a lot

[wise zodiac]

BotB is a dope map

[tame cobalt]

Doubt they'll actually do that in 2042. Portal custom modes just don't get enough players for it to be worth the resources

[west heron]

how is that possible? why won't it just give me the damn things i've unlocked

[wise zodiac]

Tf you guys smoking

[little lagoon]

The desert one not so much

[hexed mango]

battle of the Bulge

[fiery dawn]

There are so many cool maps from 1942 that they could at least include in portal though…

[little lagoon]

Big bulge. My fav

[wise zodiac]

I guarantee if there's a map editor, Portal will be huge.

[tame cobalt]

They should just port some goated bfv maps to 2042, the assets are already higher quality than 2042

[little lagoon]

Bring BotB to aow cowards

[wise zodiac]

Carentan would be hella fun

[next onyx]

All I want is seine crossing.

That was a pretty good map.

[wise zodiac]

Seine was fun

[little lagoon]

Is that the one with the big bridge?

[next onyx]

Because of seine crossing they got the inspiration to do Rotterdam.

[little lagoon]

I just wanted twisted metal from bc2

[next onyx]

Seine crossing the one with the lot of white buildings.

In France.

[little lagoon]

Oh bf3

[hexed mango]

they should merge BFV+1942 cause like why not
but at the same time 2042 content > portal content

[hidden sand]

Don't mesh at all with the different gameplay and era

[little lagoon]

I don't remember bf3 maps very well

[hidden sand]

Not to mention, BoTB is a pretty lackluster remake

[little lagoon]

I noticed they used the same church from the V map

[next onyx]

They reused the desert buildings from bf1 in bf5 as well.

The tanks use the exact same model.

[fiery dawn]

Gimme OG 1942 maps in Portal

[hidden sand]

The wolverine is new though

[next onyx]

The m40?

It's been in since 1942.

[hidden sand]

I meant the model itself

[next onyx]

But yeah it's a tank we haven't exactly seen too much of.

Yeah it's completely original.

[fiery dawn]

Hey Way, do you know how long you have to be active to get the Regular role?

[hidden sand]

They're missing some vehicles on both BoTB and Alamein

[fiery dawn]

Just curious

[next onyx]

Would of been cool to see in 5 as the heavy tank for the U.S.

Should be a months worth of constant talking. Or something.

[fiery dawn]

Ok cool

Suika you’re a reg but no colored role?

[low timber]

It’s gonna be a mind fuck for me as I’ve never played it on Conquest Large and the small and Large are completely different.

[next onyx]

Same.

I want to see it on conquest 64.

[hidden sand]

Damn thats right, you didnt play on PC for it

And I guess you cant now either

[west heron]

I think I still have my original bf1942 box around here somewhere

[rough nova]

Is it a glitch that everytime I try joining a match I am the only one waiting in the lobby?

[west heron]

its like 12 CD-roms

[low timber]

I think it’s the only BF3 map where the conquest small and large don’t even share cap point locations at all.

[fiery dawn]

I’ve still got mine xD

[hexed mango]

200 F-35 kills away from T2

[fiery dawn]

What mode

[fiery dawn]

poggers

[low timber]

You mean vehicle destroys?

[rough nova]

was trying any of the conquest ones

[wise zodiac]

Seine, Grand Bazaar, Karkand, Bandar Desert. At night. Would be fun as hell to play

[fiery dawn]

Wish I could be grinding right now but out of town

[tame cobalt]

I think kaleidoscope and renewal reworks will be really fun.

[hidden sand]

BF3 on console was wack, always wish they had waited a few more years to bring it consoles but, yeah naturally that couldn't happen.

[fiery dawn]

What platform are you on

[rough nova]

pc

haven't played in months and figured i'd hop on, but can't seem to find anyone lol

[low timber]

Next update should add the Kaleidoscope changes

[fiery dawn]

I’ve had that a few times but usually just because I’m playing at odd hours and everyone is focused on one mode. Also Friday Night Battlefield is going on right now that might have something to do with it

[little lagoon]

August

[tame cobalt]

Half a month till it's kaleido rebirth time, who's hyped?

[hexed mango]

100

[tame cobalt]

[hexed mango]

thinking about august depresses me tho cause school

[tame cobalt]

School moment

[fiery dawn]

Hah imagine going to school

[hexed mango]

US Public school more like... ||i cant say it||

[tame cobalt]

Thinking about any time depresses me tho because work

[fiery dawn]

Same

[low timber]

I wonder how much more Kaleidoscope has changed, as there are still lots of locations we haven’t seen, like the lone skyscraper, the skate park and the bowl structure side of the map.

[wise zodiac]

But it was the best. I had an immense amount of fun playing it.

[hexed mango]

im betting quite a bit ngl

ok ima go eat

[tame cobalt]

The interesting thing i noticed, is that all the changed areas they've shown are within the new breakthrough layout.

[low timber]

Exactly, but only half of the 64p conquest layout.

[tame cobalt]

And 128p cq layout

[hallow sierra]

funny how everytime i play with a med i always get like 20 reives while the others would get not even 2 digit

[solar rivet]

hazard zone actually has players now

[fiery dawn]

Yeah most people don’t revive a whole lot in this game in my experience. Always seems to be just 1 or 2 medic players actually reviving every game. If we’re lucky

[bronze steeple]

I get revived and medpacks and ammo a lot only some nerds dont revive but most players atleast try to..

[trim basin]

does the mouse raw input setting even work lol

just randomly starts skipping whenever it wants

[hexed mango]

i still think that anyone using the med crate should be able to revive, and falck should be able to do a ranged revive (for less hp) with her pistol

angel also might need a buff

[plucky pebble]

No pls

[uncut bay]

yeah falck's ranged revive should've been kept

[hexed mango]

idk what logical sense this makes, but falck being able to revive with her pistol might promote more medic usage / revives
shouldnt give 100hp, probably not even 50hp, but it would be a neat piece of tech

also, if you have the medbag equipped, you should be able to revive
mainly cause promoting the ability to revive would make teamplay a bit nicer, and i mean the medbag has all the tools for medical care, so why not revives?

this is a super far stretch, but the for the med pen, it would be neat if we could inject our allies to heal them
just sent this to sam, maybe he'll work on it / forward it

iirc sam works on gadgets, so he might personally do that unless he doesnt do those specific gadgets

[willow sky]

well since angel doesnt give shields, there could be a specialist that would

[hexed mango]

perhaps, or just buff angel :)

angel lowkey useless and quite selfish rn

[chilly jacinth]

how about removing armor completely

[willow sky]

spam ammo and loadout crates

[hexed mango]

nah

[chilly jacinth]

such a shit mechanic

[willow sky]

loadout crates are like super necessary just to refresh gadgets 😔

[hexed mango]

although tbh armor is a little meh, since they removed it from angel, i dont see why not just remove it entirely

[uncut bay]

yeah armor needs to go

[hexed mango]

ikr

[uncut bay]

doesn't belong in bf

not in its current state at least

[hexed mango]

but then i would see them needing to buff irish to counter it

unrelated, but anyone else here try ios16 yet

[red notch]

Im having a problem where on PC (Steam), about 40% of matches i load into it just freezes on the load screen and later crashes

ive only been playing on portal FYI

[hexed mango]

lowkey the new SU skin (bundle) looks nice

i didnt try it ingame until just now

red, white and blue is better

[little lagoon]

We ever find out why they changed the menu to 30fps?

[hexed mango]

wah

[fiery dawn]

I never even knew this but apparently there was a 1 week mission reward for a Su-57 skin at some point that I missed but the skin looks super dope. Gonna DM it can you post it here?

[hexed mango]

sure

[fiery dawn]

Looks so nice

[hexed mango]

i have that one

[fiery dawn]

Wish I didn’t miss it

[hexed mango]

i have every weekly reward including the ultra rare grin reaper

[surreal portal]

Sleeeeek

[fiery dawn]

Yeah I stopped playing for a couple months before season 1 :(

[surreal portal]

Just bought the series x just so I can play 2042 🤣

[little lagoon]

On console the menu was changed from 60fps to 30fps

[hexed mango]

this is the new one for the felon

this is that weekly one

[surreal portal]

Looks like an Apollo space craft

[hexed mango]

lol

[fiery dawn]

Yeah I really like the Sonic Shock one

[hexed mango]

best skin in the game

[fiery dawn]

Yeah I guess I missed out on most of the skins before S1

RIP

[hexed mango]

i mean that skin was only available for 24 hours

[fiery dawn]

Are there any other really good ones I missed out on?

[hexed mango]

erm lemme check

there were like 20 bolte skins

[surreal portal]

Is the [S0##] number your levels?

In your names

[hexed mango]

ye

[surreal portal]

Ah okay cool

[hexed mango]

although ingame im actually S092 but TRN's stats say S080

[fiery dawn]

So just put S092 no?

[hexed mango]

i have to also explain that my name and bio are automatically updated based on trn's stats

[surreal portal]

That’s so cool ngl

[hexed mango]

all this stuff is automated by trn
i wrote some code that just scrapes their website and then posts an update req to discord

updates every few minutes or so

[surreal portal]

I presume this is only done through steam right?

[hexed mango]

no...

#stats

[plucky anvil]

Have any EA team members talked about balancing the stealth helicopter further? Currently it can flare, then stealth and repeat preventing any missile lock-ons.

[hexed mango]

yes.

[surreal portal]

I thought the new operator aimed to somewhat combat this?

[red notch]

They have only confirmed the busted 30mm so far, but they said they are looking at other things as well

[plucky anvil]

Nice

[fiery dawn]

I think they’re nerfing the 30MM cannon on it

[plucky anvil]

And the new operator can only do so much, a heli can be tricky to hit if its not slow-moving like the Condor

[little lagoon]

That's bsvm needs that nerf noww

[red notch]

it got buffed lol

[little lagoon]

I know

[red notch]

once season 2 hits I imagine all the season 1 stuff is gonna get nerfed and the season 2 stuff is going to be the meta

[little lagoon]

Nerf next patch apparently

[hexed mango]

the baseline for all dmrs, not just the bsv

[red notch]

If they make it "meta" and not "utterly broken", then its not a bad idea to have the battle pass stuff on top

[hexed mango]

they explained it as trying to figure out where the dmr baseline for range should be, so that they can experiment and go in and reduce the bsv to be more useful as intended

[red notch]

still got buffed for now...

it wasnt much other than its range

[hexed mango]

yes, but to figure out how to nerf it

but, that buff was good because it buffed all dmrs. making the bad ones, good

[surreal portal]

The “top 5 best weapons” YouTubers gunna have content for months 🤣

[hexed mango]

so now the DM7 and VCAR can actually be used, and the SVK is just even more nice

[hexed mango]

just wait for portal guns to come in aow in the next few months

[surreal portal]

I saw somewhere the F2000 is making a comeback?

Loved that gun on metro it used to blitz people

[hexed mango]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[surreal portal]

I think I saw levelcap saying summin about it but idk

[hexed mango]

this is what im waiting for

M16

[surreal portal]

Pure nostalgia within that gun

[hexed mango]

that and the P90 lmao

P90 gonna be meta

ez

new K30

[surreal portal]

Ye, maybe they do something to the reserve ammo to make it less powerful

[red notch]

K30 with less accuracy and more ammo as a P90 would be interesting

[hexed mango]

just make the P90 op.

🤞

its not in portal, but a FN57 would be nice

wait BC2 has an m1 garand? am i dumb or smth?

[tranquil turtle]

No
There cannot be any new pistols until there is an m1911

[tranquil turtle]

And a thompson

[hexed mango]

i guess i really forgot about bc2

[surreal portal]

Giving me BF5 flashbacks

Thompson and M1911

[hexed mango]

GOL Magnum my baby

[surreal portal]

Fuck yes

Best sniper in bf4

[hexed mango]

i love that thing

[surreal portal]

What about the Deagle

[tranquil turtle]

why are they adding the m95 but not the gol magnum

That gun was crazy in bc2

[hexed mango]

gol mag is in bc2 portal

[tranquil turtle]

Fr?

[hexed mango]

fr

[tranquil turtle]

I haven't played bc2 portal in a long time

Damn I'm buggin

[surreal portal]

Is sniping in 2042 anything like BF5?

[hexed mango]

in what sense

[surreal portal]

Cus BF5 sniping is horrible

Like the scope

[hexed mango]

i like sniping in 2042, but only with the DXR

[tranquil turtle]

I prefer the sws

[hexed mango]

loser

[little lagoon]

I heard 5 is better than 1 in sniping though

[tranquil turtle]

Run the raven 4x and close combat

[surreal portal]

Nahhhh 1 is the best for sniping. I can’t aim on 5 to save my life 😭

[hexed mango]

dxr is the best long-range sniper

[surreal portal]

But that’s personal opinion

[hexed mango]

that thing has monster velo

[tranquil turtle]

Yeah but the sws is fun

[hexed mango]

tru

and the 4x with the legendary skin looks dope

[tranquil turtle]

They should add the CS5

Or some futuristic variant

[hexed mango]

ACW in 2042 gonna slap so hard

[naive sedge]

How do you remove a 3rd attachment now on xbox?

[hexed mango]

remove? you cant

you can replace tho

[naive sedge]

you used to be able to, remove a 3rd and run only 1 or two

[little lagoon]

I can't snipe in 1 I can in 5

[hexed mango]

i dont think you ever could, ive never been able to atleast

[naive sedge]

fuck I swear I've done that

[tranquil turtle]

1 sniping is ok, 5 is a little more satisfying

[tranquil turtle]

Those red iron sights look stupid as hell

[hexed mango]

short barrel?

[hexed mango]

that's orange but ok

[tranquil turtle]

Optionally

[hexed mango]

what do you use

[tranquil turtle]

Bipod, 6x sight, long barrel

[trim basin]

5 sniping is good, 2042 is easier compared but poor mouse input makes cqb punishing

[naive sandal]

You mean crossbow

[surreal portal]

Alright sounds promising lol I’ll have to see for myself in a week I guess

[tidal hare]

my personal opinion of sniping is 2042 NTW> bf1 > 2042 > bf4 > bfv

idk why but bfv feels so fucking ass to me

[fiery shoal]

bfv easily has the best sniping though

bf1s sniping is that shit sweet spot mechanic

[tidal hare]

bfv sniping never really clicked with me

well i like one body

so yeah

[fiery shoal]

of course snipers would, its bs

[tidal hare]

thats why 2042 NTW w/ k8 > everything else

in my opinion

[fiery shoal]

did you snipe in bfv after velocity update?

[tidal hare]

when was the velocity update?

[fiery shoal]

6.2?

[tidal hare]

which year?

[fiery shoal]

after pacific update

[tidal hare]

i did sniped quite some after ps update

[trim basin]

bf5 fast ads and strafe speed made sniping so good

[tidal hare]

still dont like it

[trim basin]

go for headshots anyway

[fiery shoal]

damn, i actually really like bfv sniping after the velocity update

was insanely satisfying

[tidal hare]

yeah it is more of a personal issue

the gunshot sounds feels a bit too muted in bfv tbh

[trim basin]

all about the headshot sound 👽

[tidal hare]

bf1 have the best headshot sound lol

[fiery shoal]

i only ever got it once, but i loved when you started counting headshots

[tidal hare]

bfv and 2042 are basically the same

i personally like 2042 hitmark sounds

and the hitmarker size

a lot larger and easier to confirm kill just by looking at crosshair

[trim basin]

wish you could turn the volume of it up

[tidal hare]

oh yeah

a hitmarker sound adjustment that is seperate from everything else would be amazing

[fiery dawn]

Damn another sweet skin I missed out on

[tidal hare]

that was the only skin that made me get out of the afk and play some games

it looks so good

carbon and metallic never goes wrong

[fiery dawn]

Yeah feels bad that they are so limited

[hexed mango]

nah crossbow has shit speed

[hexed mango]

L

[naive sandal]

Wasn't being serious... Explosive bolts pretty good for mid range combat tho, just need to find good camping spot near objectives

[hexed mango]

i know

[hexed mango]

true explosive bolts are cool but a little underwhelming ngl

[naive sandal]

I won a few encounters against actual snipers lol because it one shot kills at any distance

Last game I got a 350 m kill

[hexed mango]

hot

[pine roost]

I’ve had that play a couple times, the first time just made me appreciate the details put into these games, same goes for the promotion voice over in bf4

[tranquil turtle]

the 30mm cannons on the stealth helis are so balanced

I love getting farmed by a guy going 93-0 in a hannibal

this is a true battlefield moment

[trim basin]

but at least the bsv got buffed!

[hexed mango]

all dmrs

which is actually a good buff

[round garden]

they put bf3 in 2042 even tho the og bf3 is better, so its like funny that they are not capable, to like make a better game than bf3 that is more than 10 years old....

[hexed mango]

cause now the vcar, svk and dm7 are good

[tranquil turtle]

I have yet to try them

[hexed mango]

vcar less so

but dm7 and svk are good dmrs

[trim basin]

if you don't include the bsv sure

[tranquil turtle]

did they get a damage buff or a range buff

or both

[hexed mango]

bsv is 100% getting nerfed in next update, purely cause they know its op, this buff was just to see the baseline change

[hexed mango]

damage modifier at range

basically damage dropoff

[arctic grove]

Battlefield moment

[hexed mango]

portal is supposed to be a collection and refurbish of old bf games, not a replica
yes, its supposed to mimic the old game, but in a way where its features are present in a modifiable environment

[round garden]

and where you gonna have anything impactful in that statement?

[hexed mango]

and honestly i went and played bf3 today
was only impressed by 1 thing, the vaulting animation

[hexed mango]

🤡 x1000

amazing rebuttle

[round garden]

in 2042 they are missing the vaulting from bfv i think...

[hexed mango]

no, there is vaulting, i just liked the animations in bf3

and tbh the animations in 2042 arent terrible, they just arent as good in some cases as bf3

[round garden]

you cannot vault like same height obstacles like you can in bfv

[hexed mango]

you can vault anything just under as tall as your player

[round garden]

yes so its missing features from previous games

[hexed mango]

uh no.

[round garden]

yes

[trim basin]

yes

[hexed mango]

common sense says you cant vault easily onto a platform above arms reach.

[round garden]

bruh

[hexed mango]

you can climb just fine in 2042

[round garden]

but have you ever like played a fps that came out in the past few years tho its like a standard mechanic to vault, you can probably do it in arma and dayz aswell, and that has to say something about the game revolving around acctuall war 💀

[hexed mango]

you can vault in 2042.

[round garden]

vault over deez nuts you can yes

[hexed mango]

[round garden]

i was looking for some video to show you best i could find was this: https://youtu.be/JBlRK_WQVss

[hexed mango]

you can do that in 2042.

[round garden]

so this guy climbs a same height obstacle, which you cannot do in bf2042

[crimson basin]

when are they going to add portal guns?

[hexed mango]

that wasnt a same height, eye-level sure, but you can do that in 2042

[round garden]

you cant

[hexed mango]

soon, probably next update

[tranquil turtle]

way was right about those flak pods on the wildcat

they're crazy

[wide shore]

You literally can vault stuff slightly higher than the player

It is a little less than you can in BFV and BF1. Or at least that’s how it feels. But you can still do it

[magic spade]

hello

[rocky kraken]

hello

[dawn moat]

hi

[trim basin]

hello

[echo yew]

are they ever gonna fix mouse input

[clear thunder]

i keep getting errors and cant login sigh....

[arctic grove]

Battlefield Moment

[tranquil turtle]

this guy just went 14-14 with 60 revives wtf

[fiery dawn]

One of the devs claimed in a twitch chat that they are still working on ironing out the remaining issues

[echo yew]

so.. it could be earliest in august?

.... 9 months after release to get mouse input working? im sorry?

[fiery dawn]

I know it’s ridiculous

[arctic grove]

having specialists in a bf game is ridiculous

[crimson basin]

It feels as though some of the things in 2042 are ripped straight from apex

[willow sky]

im still waiting for that bug where exiting a vehicle screws up half ur controls to be fixed

[hexed mango]

honestly i have yet to experience mouse problems

ig im lucky

[fiery dawn]

@hexed mango Still grinding F-35?

[little lagoon]

How come none of you told me you can tell the ranger where to go!?

Does that mean I can strap c5 it and surprise someone!?

[fiery dawn]

You can?

How?

[little lagoon]

Radial menu

Haven't done it yet but saw someone do it

[hexed mango]

ye

yeah you can tell the ranger to do 3 things

1. go to a marker
2. follow you
3. self-destruct

[fiery dawn]

xD number 3 super useful

[little lagoon]

Putting c5 and going to a tank?

And telling it to explode

[hexed mango]

on pc:
marker: q (or whatever your menu button is) + e
follow: q + (e) x 2 (doubleclick e)
destruct: q + e (hold)

[little lagoon]

I need to do some testing i think

[hexed mango]

if it isnt e, its f i always forget

[vestal grove]

Apex? Lol more like cod.

[hexed mango]

im like 75% its e tho

[little lagoon]

Just like 3, 4 and hardline did right

[fiery dawn]

How far away are you now

[hexed mango]

lmao

havent gone too far since i last updated you cause i was moving my stuff to my dad's house for ✨ custody change ✨

[vestal grove]

Never played hardline so can’t comment. And not even close on 3 and 4 lmao nice try.

[fiery dawn]

Fbm

[hexed mango]

hardline deserved more respect

[little lagoon]

Hey you never know, that's what every modern battlefield has been said about since well 3

Not a fan of hardline. Dare I say I hate it

[vestal grove]

Nah there was definitely a clear difference between cod and 3/4. Anybody that says otherwise is just dumb.

[hexed mango]

what's cod-like in 2042 tho, just curious, ive never really played cod

[tranquil turtle]

bruh how long have you been grinding this

[hexed mango]

only like a week

[little lagoon]

I'm not disagreeing. I don't feel they have at all, even 2042

[wheat pecan]

I've been trying to put up with fps issues since release but I can barely go past 60 on a 3060ti /Ryzen 7 3700XT at 1600x900 resolution. I really enjoy the game but I want to play it like its 2022 not 2012, has anyone got any optimisation tips/tricks

[wheat pecan]

to add to this all my settings are on the lowest they'll go and my fov is 70

[hexed mango]

you playing 128P games?

[wheat pecan]

64

[hexed mango]

cause i have a 3070, i7 10th and i get 100fps in 64 under and 80 in 128

make sure dx12 is enabled in the config file, its not in settings ingame
also tweaking your display settings, and your own system's power plan

[wheat pecan]

alr i'll try it and see how it goes

ty

what's the config file called? is it just config.txt?

[hallow sierra]

idk how long it would take for me to get a weapon t1

[wheat pecan]

years

decades maybe

your grandchildren would struggle getting it if you, them, and your children played it religiously 24/7

[rocky kraken]

will range finding for snipers be a thing in 2042?

[wheat pecan]

dx12 made it worse :(

genuinely no clue what to do now

and i already tried the other 2

[cyan trout]

What's the resolution of your monitor?

[fiery dawn]

Really not that long depending on the weapon

[wheat pecan]

1920x1080

[fiery dawn]

I T1’d the BSVM in less than a week playing really casually

[cyan trout]

Why are you playing the game at a lower resolution as you stated above?

[fiery dawn]

The super sweats in this game T1’d it in like a day lmao

[wheat pecan]

because it runs better

than in a higher resolutioon

[hallow sierra]

wait

[cyan trout]

How much memory you got?

[wheat pecan]

16 gb

3000mhz

[hallow sierra]

scar now has a skin with its own sight

[wheat pecan]

or whatever ram is measured in

i forgor

[hallow sierra]

and i gotta pay money for it

bruh

[cyan trout]

Single channel, dual channel, or you using all 4 dimm slots?

[wheat pecan]

single

1x16 gb corsair vengeance lpx

its old but not ancient

maybe a year or 2

[hallow sierra]

its better than my 4gb ram

single channel

[wheat pecan]

thats why im struggling to understyand why i got issues

because people with worse hardware run it better

[hallow sierra]

impossible

dat logic doesnt make any sense

[wheat pecan]

exactly

[cyan trout]

You got a bottleneck somewhere. Make sure windows isn't updating in the background. That will fuck up the best rigs

[wheat pecan]

its not

this has been consistently happening since release

[hallow sierra]

and 2042 is cpu bound

[wheat pecan]

highest ive got is 80 avg against bots

[cyan trout]

How many watts on the PSU?

[wheat pecan]

650

entirely adequate for my setup

[hallow sierra]

anyway how much is the scar-m bundle

[wheat pecan]

i have checked

[wheat pecan]

about a tenner

[hallow sierra]

ok in bf credits

[wheat pecan]

1400

[hallow sierra]

bruh

[wheat pecan]

skin by itself is 750

[hallow sierra]

i have like 300

from the bp

[wheat pecan]

damn

unfortunate

[cyan trout]

That sucks man. I am on a 12600k and a 1080 and I am getting at least 60fps

[wheat pecan]

i mean if you have a spare £5 you could buy 500 more then youd have enough

wait i went into a rush game and im getting above 60

for the first time in a good while

hallelujah!

[fiery shoal]

single stick of ram is fucking horrible..

[cyan trout]

I try to always run 4x ____ of whatever the mobo recommends

[fiery shoal]

2x is like.. bare minimum for games

[wheat pecan]

im upgrading soon tbf

[fiery dawn]

I have 16gb. Which is pretty standard. But I’m going to upgrade to 32 eventually

[wheat pecan]

i just want to make the most of waht i currently have
