battlefield-2042

[tulip spire]

he went like 80-0

[dapper river]

oh well then your team trash bruh

[tulip spire]

problem was that I was the only one locking on to him

and the gamemode made the other side of that wall out of bounds so you couldnt flank while the countermeasures arent available

out of bounds for my team at least

[quiet shell]

I wonder why DICE isn't posting the new weekly challenges and portal modes in #direct-communication

[dapper river]

If they don't tweet about it, it doesn't get posted. simple as

Although, for the past 2 weeks (now 3??), totalfps has failed to update us on the weekly challenges in #game-news. Sad!

[foggy halo]

Daily reminder to add vehicles slots

[sweet barn]

my BP is literally progressing backwards

[foggy halo]

[solid imp]

Hear me out... remove the 50mm from the Hind/Condor, keep the two minigun seats, keep the two door passengers, and add 6-8 extra passenger slots in the back who can't do anything other than jump out. Let's turn the transport into a transport.

[foggy halo]

wow you sound mad

[foggy tundra]

i see youre still salty

[solid imp]

😂 no but they even have the cutscenes during first deployment showing people jumping off the back ramp, yet when you look back there from one of the door passenger seats it's a huge amount of empty cargo room gone to waste

[foggy halo]

idc about cutscenes I didn't even notice

[solid imp]

would legit turn the thing into a transport that you still have to be very concerned about because now there could be 2 full squads dropped onto whatever objective

and doesn't take away any of its AA capabilities since those minis shred everything in the air

[foggy halo]

they still need to add vehicles slots tho

[bronze steeple]

Choppers are overpowered especialy hannibal

[solid imp]

To which mode? Didn't they add more slots to the attackers on Exposure BT and now it's hella hard to defend?

[bronze steeple]

I dont know

[toxic wigeon]

How does this battle pass work after it’s over

With vehicles and weapons

Like if you don’t unlock a weapon from the battle pass cause you missed it so you just miss out on it forever or is there another way to get them

[umbral vigil]

The british are underwater in this game right

good

[dapper river]

just shoot it to break its stealth lmao

[uncut bay]

you won't miss out forever since those are free items, they'll probably add them as challenges next season or just slot them into the battlepass again

[dapper river]

we don't know ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Hoping it's like cod where it'll be challenge-based post season

[uncut bay]

if they do lock out content for people they'll get massive backlash, and i presume they aren't that stupid

[toxic wigeon]

Yeah

[umbral vigil]

they'll just do bfv stuff and hand it out afterwards

[slate needle]

massive backlash from all 12 of us

[solid imp]

worst case scenario it moves into the store and you have to use S2 coins to get stuff

[royal trail]

im only bprank 53, and dont think ill make it to 100. hope there will be some other way to gain it all later

[uncut bay]

haha game dead joke #100000

[tame cobalt]

If you're on controller you should bind aim and shoot to L1 and R1

[dapper river]

that's 11 more players than Infinite has

[slate needle]

real

[wide shore]

Neverrrr

[ancient basin]

Tell you something this tank only mode is good fun

[umbral vigil]

halo infinite is so empty I already have my perfect Spartan setup

[ancient basin]

Might meet 1 other player test of the time it’s me getting 40 kills per game versus bots

[uncut bay]

i doubt it tbh, halo is the only game i've ever seen doing that sort of stuff. Once a battlepass is done it's probably done for good, with the exception of free items

[ancient basin]

Rest*

[umbral vigil]

now there's nothing to do because I hate last Spartan standing which is the premiere mode

[tame cobalt]

L1 and R1 basically gives you trigger stops for free

[royal trail]

rip

[slim junco]

Skill issue

[umbral vigil]

Does anyone else think the mcs880 is ridiculously underpowered

[uncut bay]

yes

[umbral vigil]

at close range the #01 buckshot does half health

[wide shore]

Shit I’m good then. I got trigger stops.

[umbral vigil]

What

[uncut bay]

you need to be right in the enemy's face for a one shot, they nerfed it hard asf

[umbral vigil]

The flechettes made it viable and then they fixed it I guess it was a bug

[dapper river]

yes and no. I've been oneshot by it on many occasions. If you're far enough, you won't get oneshot. simple as!

[umbral vigil]

Still the flechettes are the only good one

[umbral vigil]

do not use #01 buckshot

[foggy halo]

the number 1 problem of the players that play this game

[umbral vigil]

I am fully convinced they don't have a one shot range because their pattern is very vertical

It's a bit like a cross

The flechettes at least have a reliable one hit kill

[tame cobalt]

Pog

[ancient basin]

Another 25/0 game lol

[tame cobalt]

Skill issue

[ancient basin]

Battle rank progress is insane

I went 25

[foggy halo]

skills

[ancient basin]

It’s mostly AI maybe one other player every odd game

So just rock to the single capture point in a tank and camp there

[foggy halo]

😞

[ancient basin]

Machine gun heaven

[full burrow]

people praised the new map but most of my games the 80% of the server is fighting between the B points and the rest are helies

[foggy halo]

yeah people started to camp in that map

about 2 weeks after release

[bronze steeple]

I dont play lis

[dapper river]

don't need to, use any weapon that can damage air vehicles. hit the stealth chopper enough to break its stealth, opening it up to lock-on. ez

[foggy halo]

and people want it to get nerfed

😐

[dapper river]

Can't buff their intelligence lul

[foggy halo]

xD

[full burrow]

the problem is helis is all you need to be a good heli is one person, a good pilot, in order to take out a heli you need several teammates working together

and people have more proximity to land vehicles so there a higher chance of people being opportunists in terms of taking them out

air vehicles people ignore unless you are really decidated to taking it out and even then its hard to do without others also trying

[ancient basin]

Same issue since BF2

One good heli pilot and the game was over

[tame cobalt]

I'm jammin cod vanguard free week while waiting for 2042 to get good

[tame cobalt]

They should uhhhh maybe fix it

Maybe uhhhhh remove all attack helis from game would literally just be better

Remove all attack aircraft only remaining aircraft can be condor, but with half its weaponry removed

Literally just fixed battlefield

[ancient basin]

Yeah there were maps in BF2 without attack helis that were far more enjoyable for everyone

[molten halo]

Do you guys think battlefield 2042 has improved since launch

[tame cobalt]

Of course

[molten halo]

Is it playable? Any new content added?

[ancient basin]

Yeah it’s a lot of fun right now

[arctic grove]

Its playable and exposure map is decent

[tame cobalt]

Very playable on next gen consoles
New map is great and more content coming soon

[still vault]

Exposure is a great map.

[molten halo]

I might get it

[arctic grove]

Get it when its on sale or at gamestop. I heard they having summer sales

[molten halo]

Thx

[slate meadow]

Don't bother

They keep adding things that break the game

Then take weeks to fix those things

And in the mean time they are halfway through adding something else that is going to break the game

[still vault]

lulwhat

[wide shore]

I mean. Not wrong. But that’s game development of a live service in a nutshell

[slim junco]

Modern gaming is poggers

[foggy halo]

like what?

[full burrow]

solflam targeting and AA targeting is aweful

sometimes you cant sprint unless you stop, crouch or whatever to fix it

I havnt been able to see the portal screen properly for weeks

every now and then you just get errors and sent back to the menu when joining a gamw

oh and what about ghost models of people apperearing all over the map

you think its a person and no its just a glitch

[wide shore]

Hind 50mm, 880 flechettes, stealth heli 30mm’s not overheating, pre-nerf PKP/PP29/AC42, drone C5’s, breakthrough objectives on rooftops, Sundance scatter grenades, pre nerf hovercraft & boltes. That’s just off the top of my head.

[full burrow]

oh also those old maps that have "redone" for portal, most of the things that you are supposed to be able to shoot through, you cant

[arctic grove]

are new missions available?

[wide shore]

Yea

They’re pinned if you wanna see them

[acoustic island]

Are there any different modes in the aow rotation

[tacit sphinx]

exposure 24/7 conquest got switched to breakthrough

that’s it

[slate meadow]

stealth choppers?

[tame vine]

I wanna know who thought it was a good idea to give mastery badges for unarmed transport vehicles 😭

[surreal portal]

What does a weapon mastery actually do?

[calm bison]

DM7 is underrated

And this is a fact

[surreal portal]

It could do with a little bit more fire rate

[calm bison]

yeah but still

3 hit kill

pretty easy to control

[still vault]

I hide the card DICE sent me in a safe place. Also, I've far exceeded what they thought I would reach 😄

[calm bison]

wait they sent you a physical player card?

damn thats pretty cool

[surreal portal]

That’s pretty cool

Ngl

So let’s discuss price ✍️

[calm bison]

Is it paper or plastic

If its paper what is stopping me from making my own

[still vault]

High quality paper with some metal foil in the top right

Not insane quality but a nice gesture

Is located on my swag background furniture

[foggy halo]

stealth choppers ain't broken

[foggy halo]

😐 so many posters, that it's actually kind of embarrassing imo

oh wait he's a streamer

so it's ok

[arctic grove]

A DICE Intern

[foggy halo]

needs to show hype

[foggy halo]

you play tanks 33% of the time

[arctic grove]

He is a funny and great game critic

[slim junco]

He's a true gamer

[unkempt tartan]

i just had a decent tank sesh

[still vault]

Of all your wrong statements, that one is probably in the middle.

[arctic grove]

This is what a decent tank sesh looks like

[foggy halo]

😐

[unkempt tartan]

i love it

[foggy halo]

99.9% of what I say is true and accurate

even when you delete it

deleted message != wrong

[arctic grove]

I miss 2042 launch. Best feature were the wall climbing hovers. A bug DICE didnt need to fix

[slim junco]

Battlefield moment

[arctic grove]

Exactly my guy

[slim junco]

Poor guy

[arctic grove]

No poor guy.. he has skill issues

[slim junco]

Also true

[still vault]

Good thing the tank was camouflaged. Otherwise it would have been in trouble.

[slim junco]

"Camouflage"

[silk surge]

I only need 134 kills to get Huron to T1, but I keep getting sent to Russia side... 34 games in a row as Russia...

And yes, I've been counting.

[fossil trench]

Lol what

[foggy halo]

For some reason people prefer to play team usa

[foggy halo]

Don't be a USA hero!

play ru too

I’m a vehicle main 🥹

[neon iris]

I highly recommend the 12m auto to everyone

Just tier 1'd, so much fun

It's one of the best close range weapons

Especially with the flechette rounds, they're super strong, but the low ammo count/ low magazine size can be annoying

So fun tho

[arctic grove]

MERICA 🦅

[foggy halo]

[arctic grove]

They should add more nations

[mossy badge]

like china

[arctic grove]

Ye

[arctic grove]

LMAO as an american tho... i really hate the stereotype

[solar tinsel]

I think the "lore" is that there are no more beyond US and RU haha, but maybe I'm wrong

[arctic grove]

ESPECIALLY THE BFV ELITE

[arctic grove]

Oh damn your right

[arctic grove]

I wonder what happened to China LMAO

[solar tinsel]

Ha Season 2: "What Happened to China"

[foggy halo]

Which stereotype?

The Founding Fathers made an appropriate choice when they selected the bald eagle as the emblem of the nation. The fierce beauty and proud independence of this great bird aptly symbolizes the strength and freedom of America

[arctic grove]

Not that. The Jonny Cash looking guy from Battlefield V

He makes Americans really cringe

[foggy halo]

What do you expect from a Swedish company

[arctic grove]

Imagine me making a stereotypical swedish elite in bfV

[arctic grove]

Fair Point

[hallow sierra]

i tho u would get something for reaching s001

[plucky pebble]

Well thats accurate then

[cunning meadow]

what counts as "multikills performed by any explosive" ?? Ive tried C4 in tank superioirity, Ive tried the new operator zook, idk its just not counting, or does it have to be like 3+ kills ?

how does one do this easy

[arctic grove]

Bro not everyone are maga people

[tacit sphinx]

multikill is 3+ kills in a short space of time

[radiant prism]

cough

So uh

I straight up haven't played BF at all since summer started

What do I need to know before I Jump back in

[tacit sphinx]

not much probably lol

[radiant prism]

Besides "haha game bad don't play"

[mellow raptor]

wait for exposure conq 247 to come back😢

[tacit sphinx]

depends when you havent played since

[radiant prism]

Last played June 12th apparently

[tacit sphinx]

oh yeah i dont think theres been any major change since then

[cunning meadow]

expose 24/7 breakthrough better than conq anyways

[plucky pebble]

Then theres not much actually

[radiant prism]

Ok cool, figured

[tacit sphinx]

i guess there's a new sight that might show as a "you just unlocked this!" and then disappear and not be usable on some guns (you can get it for the sfar and the vcar though)

[radiant prism]

Probably gonna eat shit the first few matches because I've been playing CoD Zombies on various games and also been playing the fuck out of Risk of Rain 2

[plucky pebble]

No way they havent fix that already

[tacit sphinx]

i mean there hasn't been a patch since it was added so

[surreal portal]

Guys I keep seeing people with like 100+ assists and no kills or deaths why is this?

[tacit sphinx]

spot assists

or pilot assists

[surreal portal]

Ah oke I thought they removed that

Where you get assists for spots

[tacit sphinx]

why?

[violet meteor]

Damn

I'm on the highway to the danger zone

https://tenor.com/view/flying-jets-top-gun-maverick-spinning-turning-stunt-gif-25250274

[still vault]

this is taking some time

[slate needle]

is there a reason the descriptions for the player cards in bundles are locked behind buying them

isn't the whole point being able to show off the imagery
why hide the flavor text from us poor people

[surreal portal]

Bro using Casper’s drone is so op to get xp

In 124 rush

[violet meteor]

If you want flavor you need to pay extra

Get a job hippie

[slate needle]

job?? i have battlefield to play.

[solid imp]

I hate how long it's taking. I definitely did not get credit for a couple C5 multi kills last game 😦

Exposure BT C base is a treasure trove for C5 kills and somehow it just didn't stick

[still vault]

multi is 3+, 2 does not count

[solid imp]

Amazing I've been playing this long and didn't know that 😂

[silk surge]

Ayyy just reached tier 100 on the BP!! See ya'll in season 2!

Oh shit.. I need to T1 the season 1 badge as well... nvm, see you in s1.

[still vault]

How far from the badge?

[silk surge]

1005/1150 iirc

No wait its 1000/1150 as I just reached tier 100

Tier 100 = 1000 Battlepass points.

[still vault]

Så 15 levels more, after the first 100, should be doable for me

[safe abyss]

Does anybody know the easiest way to get kill machine?

[silk surge]

Yeah its 15 levels more, but its like a billion xp per point at this tier.

[iron thistle]

Im with you on the username lol ive said the same thing in this chat actually

[silk surge]

You need to do it through weeklies. Those final 150 points will be extremely steep.

[still vault]

I will have ~9 levels from missions alone, so it will be like 6 painful levels with some sloppy maths

[iron thistle]

They tried to milk past fans nostalgia with the rendezook trailer for 2042 as if it was like past bf games. Now with the next bf theyre going to really need to milk fans nostaliga inorder to bring og bf fans back so bc3 just makes sense

[silk surge]

Right? It makes perfect sense. They'll probably do another modern BF, and what better way to appeal to ppls nostalgia than making a Bad Company sequel?

[iron thistle]

exactly

and if its not bc3 i could see it being titled bf6* basically one or the other

[silk surge]

It's either going to be Bad Company 3 or a full-on Bad Company reboot.

Or yeah, BF6 is also a posibility.

[iron thistle]

The leaks say theyre trying to create some kind of bf single player universe so a reboot would make sense considering the current titles are all over the place canon wise

[silk surge]

Then there's the most likely option: a Sundance spinoff

[iron thistle]

Man if theres specialists in the next game itll be the first bf i havent preordered since bf3

[silk surge]

I'd be fine with a reboot, as long as they keep the OG cast of Bad Company campaign.

There's no way they're adding specialists to any future Battlefield. The backlash has probably been loud and clear for them.

[iron thistle]

Youre probably right itd be a slap in the face to the community after all the backlash

[radiant prism]

Holy shit I hadn't been on in a while...the store skins got me actin unwise

[silk surge]

Worth it. That T1 season 1 badge is going to be super rare I think.

[iron thistle]

But theyre just now putting out the job apps on linkedin for the next bf so probably like 2-3 years out

i have faith in vince zampellas ability to make a singleplayer game tho

[silk surge]

Yeah, the next BF is probably extremely early into its pre-production at this point.

[iron thistle]

I have fun on 2042 and i realize they have obligations to fulfil but part of me knows this game is never going to comeback and be held in the same regard as previous titles, almost wish theyd just get on with the next one if theyre only going to drop 1-2 maps per season here

[silk surge]

I think there's a posibility for this game to be held in the same regard as BFV and Hardline, but not much more than that.

[iron thistle]

Eh for some reason people didnt think too fondly of bf5 until this game came out and showed them things can get worse lol

i loved the game personally logged plenty of hours

was definitely missing content tho

[silk surge]

Yeah, I meant how BFV is received now. Back when it launched, people acted like BFV murdered their family.

[iron thistle]

I think its really just a resurgence to the 2nd newest bf game bc alot of people dont like the current one

[arctic grove]

Cant blame the community for bfv to release with little content and made it a live service

[iron thistle]

Exactly and even after launch they maybe came out with 1/10th of the promised tides of war ww2 timeline

[arctic grove]

Yup

[iron thistle]

Americans hit the pacific and they said nope ww2s over

[silk surge]

It's not really the live-service model itself that is the problem. There are plenty of games that have done amazingly under a live-service model. It's how poorly DICE seems to handle live-service.

[iron thistle]

Well right the $130 gold version of this game at launch is nothing compared to bf1s or even bf4s that used maps as a dlc profit incentive rather than crap skins no one really wants / asked for

[hexed mango]

ty bb

[arctic grove]

Valid point and i agree. 2042 live service model is bad and somehow it feels worse than the BFV model.

[iron thistle]

Ya somehow its gotten worse

[arctic grove]

Its just my personal opinion that it feels worse.

[silk surge]

What's funny is that Tides of War chapters were done chronologically. Given that the Pacific Theatre happened at the very end of WW2, it should've been an indication that it was the final content drop.

[iron thistle]

I mean weve recieved less maps / guns than we had in bf5 thus far so it really isnt a matter of opinion

and that game as we said earlier was lack luster when it came to content

[drowsy shuttle]

vehicles team deathmatch.... erm... where are the vehicles?

2 or 3?

[iron thistle]

1 helicopter for my 64 player team is my favorite

[drowsy shuttle]

i guess dice don't want us to complete the missions in 3 or 4 matches this time

fair enough i guess

but at least put more vehicles.. vehicles team deathmatch and then 60 infantry and 4 vehicles

[hexed mango]

i mean we're about to receive more, and they did say that s1 content was lower due to bug fixes, so its most likely the case that the next seasons will have more content + the move of portal guns to aow and map fixes

[iron thistle]

Even if theres 2 maps for the rest of the 4 seasons itd still be less than what bf5 came out with

[silk jasper]

2 maps for S2 is unlikely given the fact that theyre 'renovating' the current maps

Too big of an ask 🤷‍♂️

[hexed mango]

i mean i would rather them fix the current maps then give out new maps, just saying

if they fix the current maps to be actually good, that is a more favorable outcome in my opinion, than just having a lot of maps

[silk jasper]

Id rather them do both tbh 🤷‍♂️

[drowsy shuttle]

yeah i highly doubt we will have 2 maps in season 2... maybe 1 map... cause the other map(s) will be the redesign of the old ones

[hexed mango]

they would probably only be able to do both with a second year

[iron thistle]

Ya i just disagree and think thats something that shouldve happened alot sooner rather than content we should be excited for

[hexed mango]

why would it have happened sooner

[drowsy shuttle]

i have to agree... fix the old maps first and then add new ones

[silk jasper]

Why not both at the same time? ^

[plucky pebble]

Fr

[iron thistle]

Because they were talking about doing it over 2 months ago and all theyre doing is adding prexisting assets to the map while removing things

[bronze steeple]

Bsv for president

[hexed mango]

i mean pre season was them asking us how to fix the issues (re. #948574259209437264) and then fixing the pretty annoying bug fixes and issues with the game to make it playable

[hexed mango]

yeah but that shit takes a long ass time, see how long kale and renewal are taking

plus if we had to wait from #948574259209437264 times -> season 1 to get exposure, i'd personally say its worth it, as that is an amazing map

[iron thistle]

They release a 3 map season with a ton of guns people would come back. I just cant see people reinstalling for "map fixes" when in reality every other bf game delivered about 2x as much by now

[plucky pebble]

For dice yeah

[hexed mango]

if its slower and we get good map fixes, and a solid map each season, that is worth it in my eyes

[drowsy shuttle]

Dice doesn't pay me to tell them how to fix the bugs and issues. They should have payed teams for that. Shouldn't be the customers to do that... but anyway.

[hexed mango]

for anyone trying to work on maps of that size, it will take forever, because its pretty freaking hard

[iron thistle]

exactly consumers shouldnt be excited about map fixes replacing new content they shouldve just done it

[plucky pebble]

Exactly and waiting 3 months plus the horrible launch that most people already forgot that this game exist

[hexed mango]

yeah they dont, so why are you asking

you paid them

[violet meteor]

Oh hi

[plucky pebble]

Since we dont have 128p no, i mean we had atleast 2 maps

[hexed mango]

and tbh ea's initial vision was for HZ to be more apparent, hence the map design
since that failed, they needed to change their view, and thats why #948574259209437264 resulted in exposure being how we want it

[hexed mango]

we still have 128p

[drowsy shuttle]

im not asking... i payed for a product to work... its my opinion, but shouldn't be the community or customers or whatever to tell them which bugs or how to fix this or that.... so i pay for the product and then i also need to tell where are the problems? whats next i should pay for macdonalds and go to the kitchen to cook the hamburguers?

[plucky pebble]

Oh shit yeah i forgot the not cool 128p mode

[hexed mango]

you pay for a product to have the product, yes, but if you can have a working hand in making it the desired vision you want, why not speak up and actually help portray your ideas

[violet meteor]

You should buy boins

[iron thistle]

I just wish theyd add more 64 player portal maps bc they play so much better than 2042s maps imo

[hexed mango]

i mean they only removed one 128p mode

[hexed mango]

the ww2 ones suck

i'd rather have 2042 maps and content than portal maps.

[violet meteor]

If no man's sky can pull it off 2042 can :D lol

[hexed mango]

purely because you can just go play the old games. so just do that if you actually want the maps. 2042's content cycle is relatively limited to just this game, they can always go back later and add portal content and maps, so i wouldn't prioritize it

and tbh if they didnt have portal in the first place i think 2042 itself would of had more, and i'd rather it have more than for portal to keep getting the brunt of the focus

[iron thistle]

Im js the bad company maps and bf3 maps were designed for 64 player and you can tell in comparison to 2042s 64 player gamemode

[drowsy shuttle]

one thing is giving ideas... other thing is to do their work of finding bugs and report etc etc... i think thats is why QA teams exist... im not an expert but thats what i think... but anyway...

[violet meteor]

Good point

[iron thistle]

Not only that but they actually feel like a lived in enviornment

[drowsy shuttle]

lol never

[plucky pebble]

Fr, add bf3 maps

[hexed mango]

i dont completely understand, but i think you're saying that the 64p maps for 2042 are just shit
which yeah, but tbh i like the 128p more anyways. so thats what i want.

[hexed mango]

exodus

[violet meteor]

Boins are dope

[iron thistle]

Im saying 2042s maps werent initially designed for 64 player and its inherent in the gameplay... you can feel it

[hexed mango]

i mean its called suggesting, being a customer that actually helps.

[violet meteor]

Already spent 600 on diablo immortal

[hexed mango]

they were designed for hz initially, which is why theyre shit in both regards

tbh, even though i think hz is a fun gamemode, i dont think it should of been the base for this game

[iron thistle]

Which again firestorm on bf5 was a miserable failure so id appreciate it if dice stopped trying to push battle royale down our throats and focus on the content folks actually want like maps and weapons for conquest and breakthrough

but oh well too late now

[bronze steeple]

What you want us to do?

[hexed mango]

true, but again hz is actually kind of fun when it works. i just wish it was separate from the start, or just not the main focus
it should of been (if even) released later, not at the start of the game, and not with the rest of the game as its driving force

[iron thistle]

Its clear battle royale isnt what the player base wants

[violet meteor]

Complain to the right people

[hexed mango]

report bugs and stuff, like literally just give your feedback like a normal person

[iron thistle]

I did and they called everything i complained about a legacy feature

another slap in the face from dice

[hexed mango]

like i do, i report stuff to sam and it eventually gets to the devs responsible, ive done that in the last 3 updates thusfar

[hexed mango]

then you're talking to the wrong people

[violet meteor]

But morbius

[bronze steeple]

👆 i like it the way it is

[violet meteor]

It's so much easier to complain to people here who aren't involved in any way

[hexed mango]

you like bugs?

[violet meteor]

Then hope it gets better

[bronze steeple]

👌

[bronze steeple]

Not that much bugs atm imo

[iron thistle]

From the all talk text chat , to a server browser , to parties of more than 4 people, theyve all been recognized by devs as problems and labled legacy features

[hexed mango]

also wasnt there already a charm that looked like this

[bronze steeple]

They did a ton of good fixes

[hexed mango]

not from what sam said

[drowsy shuttle]

lol again... that shouldn't be the "job" of the customers.... they don't pay us to do that.. at least they don't pay me to do that... i totally don't agree with that... if they want to pay me to find bugs and report, i'd gladly do it.... otherwise they should have payed teams for that.

we should have the product ready to be used

and not worry with problems and issues and bugs etc..

[bronze steeple]

Serious i realy enjoy bf2042 right now

[hexed mango]

i mean parties of more than 4 is just kind of preference, i dont really see that as an issue... i mean BF3 had parties of 4 and yet everyone likes that game

[iron thistle]

Ive read that theres 0 way to implement a server browser bc there literally isnt static servers in this game and the problem with the parties lies within not having a serverbrowser

[violet meteor]

It's not the job of the customer to report issues?

Yeah.....wrong

[hexed mango]

they dont pay you, but you bought their product, so might as well help.

[bronze steeple]

Just had 2 round 38-13 and 43-13 you dont hear me complain

[hexed mango]

they always could, they just have to change it ¯_(ツ)_/¯

if they do have a browser, they 100% better add a quick matchmake though. i dont want to sit there sorting through servers all day

[drowsy shuttle]

well, you buy a TV and the TV is broken.. ofc you go complain and tell them whats wrong.... lets not be literally here... in a videogame is a bit more complex...

[dapper river]

mfs with 12-26 in the chat going "yo this team DOG plus this game so BAD"

[violet meteor]

Not really, if something is wrong you can tell a dev

[iron thistle]

Community servers for aow bf4 style with a server browser is a genuine change that could bring people back i just dont see it happening

[violet meteor]

Report bug feature

[lone wren]

I remember battlefield blowing up my TV once

[violet meteor]

Much easier to complain to anyone BUT a dev tho

[bronze steeple]

Only thing sometimes you realy have a noob team so balance teams is someting that can be done better

[bronze steeple]

Its good imo but nobody forceren you to play

[dapper river]

Team balance? SBMM? In MY battlefield?

[violet meteor]

It's good that people like morbius at least take the initiative to tell devs what's wrong

[bronze steeple]

👆

[tacit sphinx]

i like "i think they should fix these bugs but i shouldnt tell them about the bugs they should just not exist in the first place"

[violet meteor]

Yeah

[drowsy shuttle]

i say again... why they have QA teams then?

[bronze steeple]

Whats sbmm? @dapper river

[iron thistle]

Thats not what he said lol. Its not dudes job to pay $130 and be a beta tester for the devs

[dapper river]

Personally I feel like if I encounter a bug I shouldn't bring it to the team's attention, because it's likely there have been dozens of reports on the same thing before me.

Deferred responsibility and all that shit.

[violet meteor]

Ima chalk it up to being lazy but loving a good complaint

[tacit sphinx]

like ideally yes they wouldnt but that's... borderline impossible to do without the manhours that releasing it to the public creates

[drowsy shuttle]

thank you, someone understands....

[bronze steeple]

Skill issue

[violet meteor]

Well you have nothing to lose lol and people already tell devs issues for you

Soooo

[grave prism]

whenever i play this game by myself i always get put onto the team down 800 tickets 3 minutes into the game, cant even switch teams, so fkin annoying

[tacit sphinx]

ok? but when given the tools to report issues why would you not do it and then proceed to complain when they don't fix your issue

[iron thistle]

Exactly lol why would i go run to some dev on discord when theres already several posts with thousands of people engaging about the same issue id like to complain about

[bronze steeple]

Why should you change team during a game?

[violet meteor]

It's almost like we as the consumer are responsible for playing the game or something

[dapper river]

Not like you could switch teams in the old ones either. "Teams would become too unbalanced", "too close to the end of the round". Did y'all just memoryhole that shit?

[violet meteor]

Devs tailor the experience, you need to play and see what's good and bad

[grave prism]

so i am not on the team down 800 tickets as soon as i join the game

[bronze steeple]

You guys should uninstall the game if you dont like it

[grave prism]

no you could, you just couldnt switch in game lmao

[violet meteor]

And in games like cod and battlefield, the meta is always changing and the issues always change with it

[iron thistle]

As i said earlier literally everything i complained about was whisked under the rug , done nothing about and called a legacy feature so it wouldnt matter

[violet meteor]

Price of a multiplayer game

[tacit sphinx]

ok

[bronze steeple]

Just get your d sucked and chill out

[grave prism]

atleast on console, you could just find somebody in an open squad and click their name, open their profile and join their squad that way

[royal trail]

ive got to join games during the ending scene where the top players pose a few times, thats lovely

[iron thistle]

Not going to run to some dev on discord and complain to him when theyve already announced it on twitter

[tacit sphinx]

ok

[bronze steeple]

Join last minutes in game sucks treu

Nobody likes that

[violet meteor]

Some do

[iron thistle]

cough server browser

[violet meteor]

They like being tortured

[dapper river]

Well well well, that was fun!

I am not overconfident, I'm just better than everyone else.

CELYIEST!!

[bronze steeple]

I say bsv for president voting from now..

[bronze steeple]

You prob suck balls kido

[dapper river]

Don't be sad, this is just how it works out sometimes

[iron thistle]

Somebody poisoned the waterhole !

Theres a snake in my boot!

[daring wren]

Yeah the squad management could use a downgrade to what they had 7 years ago

[iron thistle]

Reach for the sky!!

[violet meteor]

There's a snake in my boot

[iron thistle]

Petition to replace all voicelines with toystory

[violet meteor]

I'm the og woody

[hexed mango]

why not, they would have to do some major updates to their servers, to make them have more longevity, but i could see it happening

the only thing that bugs me, is having to play with the same people time and time again, which could get annoying, but whatever.
^ which is why i suggested here that maybe a solution like a matchmaking system that runs in EOR instead of booting you out would be nice, as well as (once player count goes up) a filter for maps, and stuff

[hexed mango]

tom hanks as mackay ez

[wide shore]

Close one

[hexed mango]

you should of lost

[daring wren]

Nice colorblind setting?

[iron thistle]

Static servers as i read arent apart of aow so theyd have to add dedicated servers to the game which would be quite a bit of work i just dont see getting done

[wide shore]

I deserved that W

[bronze steeple]

Go play conquest 128

[hexed mango]

static servers like ones that just stay up forever?

[iron thistle]

right

[wide shore]

Nah I just changed friendly color to more of a purple because it doesn’t blend in as much with the background

[dapper river]

I'm wondering if we'll ever get a story trailer as good as Exodus again, if the cinematics team is even still around at DICE working on post-launch stuff for 2042 lol

[iron thistle]

they switch out between servers and shut servers down in the mean time with the current quick match system

[daring wren]

Lovely

[hexed mango]

true but they have servers that close, they could just prevent them from closing like how portal does

portal's servers close when nobody is on, if that is how they would have it in AoW, that would work

and then if they wanted, they could have 24/7 servers even staying up with no people on

[violet meteor]

I got a haircut today

[bronze steeple]

I like the red and green default

[violet meteor]

I asked for the angel haircut

[iron thistle]

Id like to see it as much as the next guy. community / clan servers used to be a key component to bf on pc

[bronze steeple]

I want 24/7 manifest next to 24/7 exposure which is best map btw

[violet meteor]

I love a night on the town in full kit

[daring wren]

Oh pay to stealth like warzone?

[hexed mango]

exposeren lmao what

[daring wren]

[bronze steeple]

Auto correct haha

[hexed mango]

no its referring to the crossbow

[violet meteor]

I can't wait for the high school package though

[hexed mango]

lol

[hexed mango]

you mean graveyard

[bronze steeple]

It is best map imo

[hexed mango]

"tell me you went to public high school in america without telling me you went to public highschool in america"

proceeds to show graveyard

[daring wren]

Ghostmaker is nice, just needs higher zoom scopes

[hexed mango]

bro the legendary ghostmaker skin in the bundle doesnt have a custom scope wtf

[bronze steeple]

just play the game and guys stop complain but maybe use info to help dev to improve game i want k30 burst for further distance accuracy

[violet meteor]

Time to buy more boins

[hexed mango]

it doesnt have any custom attachments wtf why is it legendary, its just farstrike (sws) for the xbow

[violet meteor]

I wouldn't say stop complaining

Just don't complain to me, complain to a dev lol

[bronze steeple]

Ghostmaker is fun but only works at Close range

[grave prism]

lmao true, most of the game could do with that

[bronze steeple]

👆

[hexed mango]

well do complain, just to the right people and not with the expense of the wrong people

[violet meteor]

Too many people complain to me, but they forget to brush their teeth

[bronze steeple]

You are right bro

[violet meteor]

Yeah

We are right

But I was right before morbius was

[hexed mango]

i am

ur mom

[violet meteor]

I'm your dad

[hexed mango]

how much money yall wanna bet infantry rush still has vehicles

[violet meteor]

No, isn't 1.5 the standard for being a try hard and judging people?

Get better

Get to 1.5

[hexed mango]

fucking bs

[daring wren]

I prefer the kd where you tbag with the enemy and both shake ur head no, then yes

[violet meteor]

No means yes

[hexed mango]

bro if its gonna be "Infantry" rush. make it fucking infantry only

[bronze steeple]

Haha i tell you when i have 1.5

[hexed mango]

lowkey swish

[daring wren]

The lack of infantry based maps make that a chore. Ppl want a taxi

[violet meteor]

Oh dope my kd is 1.44 now

[hexed mango]

exposure rush is amazing for infantry

[bronze steeple]

I cant fly but that thing looks sick

[hexed mango]

[violet meteor]

Purple of course

[hexed mango]

k

[violet meteor]

Don't be a fool

[bronze steeple]

Bots dont count bro

[daring wren]

I'll have to try that, usually just play the ultimate rush/ conquest modes on portal with full xp. Has that hardcore feel but vehicles are a big piece.

[hexed mango]

fr they need to stop selling universal tank skins.

[violet meteor]

They do when they are more skilled than sander.

Get wrecked

[violet meteor]

I also have a girlfriend, a full time job and a social life outside of one game

Shit, guess I win

You couldn't have picked a worse game to boast about a kd for

[little dust]

why can you just get out of a jeep to avoid/lessen vehicle dmg from tgm..?

[bronze steeple]

Counts for me too but it doesnt mather if you are good or not as long as you enjoy playing its good i guess

[violet meteor]

See, I put you in your place and you wanna be friendly again

Love it

[bronze steeple]

I want bsv to come standard with auto fire and not thst when i jump out of a vehicle i have to press v first to get auto fire in the beginning of every map

[cyan trout]

On our right we have a common occurrence on the internet

[violet meteor]

Step sisters?

[little dust]

why do wildcats do more dmg to tanks than tanks do to them..

[bronze steeple]

I am not a bad person bro everyone has a life next to bf it has nothing to do with put me on my place

[violet meteor]

[tame cobalt]

Did yall see ghost recon fartlines got cancelled... that game woula been the 2042 killer. RIP the goat

[violet meteor]

Wait, I thought 2042 was killing itself slowly?

[bronze steeple]

👶

[violet meteor]

Why do we need to wait for other games to do that

[tame cobalt]

Cuz other games do it more epicly

[bronze steeple]

2042 is getting better every patch

[violet meteor]

Thanks to my boin purchases

I'm saving the game for you

[tame cobalt]

If u didn't buy boins they would've cancelled 2042 support and tweeted about taking the L

[violet meteor]

Good thing I've been buying then

[hexed mango]

L

though
where's the actual july update. like not 1.1, the traversal update labeled for "july"

im expecting an update this week

[autumn harness]

Stealth helis should get nerfed, sincierly T1 Pilot
https://www.reddit.com/r/battlefield2042/comments/w4tjt2/serious_feedback_on_way_too_easy_helicopters_from/

[violet meteor]

I really buy the coin so I can buy cosmetics and piss the people who get killed by me even further. 1 they died to a casual like myself, but also died from a player who is purchasing currency for a sub par game

[hexed mango]

they already know

[autumn harness]

outside of 30mm nerf there should be a rework for lock ons height

More in post

tldr
-Serious nerf to 30mm: both in splash and cooldown
-Buff to height lock-ons can target helis
-Buff to Rao being able to hack high altitude transport and stealth
-Nerf to lock ons by making them not being able to target rly low flying helis (this forces pilot to either die or be more skillful)
-Indirect buff to gustav and tv by forcing pilots to fly lower
-Separate airplanes into own category so they can counter other air vehicles

[hexed mango]

lock on height? lock on has a height? is it being judged for not being 6'

[violet meteor]

Idk they need to pivot and introduce some sort of wildlife that can be caught and used against other players caught animals

[tame cobalt]

Battlefart twitter after perinoid stops buying boins: "Dead game well deserved. We'll take this L because abandoning unfinished games actually makes you an 11"

[hexed mango]

im tier 98 with 5 points lol

i only need 15 points

[edgy oriole]

after i finish my hot pocket im finna get on

[valid sequoia]

I saw a clip where there was a flooding levelution event on orbital is this really a thing?

[wide shore]

This multi kill challenge is gonna put me in the ground

First game on, I end up in a mostly bot lobby. I probably multikilled like 5 vehicles. But of course, the challenge wasn’t unlocked yet

[copper fulcrum]

You mean this? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wzW6pGy_Xzo

[hexed mango]

holy shit really?

[copper fulcrum]

No, I took every single frame of this video and edited it with Microsoft's basic paint program to make it look believable

good thing they are showing this. now. after it already came out. weeks ago. and since i already had it. when it came out.

[hexed mango]

lol

[bronze steeple]

[edgy oriole]

Its not letting me equip the crossbow skin i bought 😦

[hexed mango]

L

[edgy oriole]

Had to equip it through the store. I am mr. big brain

also why 2 purple skins for it in a row.

[woven acorn]

This really do be cod

[hexed mango]

heheheh

[edgy oriole]

What do you know. you just atag.

[hexed mango]

this counted for both explosives and vehicle destroy missions

[woven acorn]

I'm battlefields tag

[edgy oriole]

bruh after playing tarkov for a bit then switching back to 2042 is rough

[hexed mango]

so many vehicles

[wide shore]

I feel like smashing my head against a brick wall is more fun than getting multi kills with explosives

[hexed mango]

its easy

just use c5

[wide shore]

What do you think I’ve been doing

[hexed mango]

not using c5

[edgy oriole]

i joined a conquest just for vehicle kills but i got super lucky and i have a team that sucks at vehicles.

[hexed mango]

suicide is painless

[paper owl]

exposure breakthrough has several chokepoints that love to be c5'd. keep at it, you'll get it eventually.

[hexed mango]

anyways

[edgy oriole]

well. not being able to aim or switch fire rate when getting out of a vehicle is happening again.

[hexed mango]

finished with the bp ✅
finished with mastery on the badge ❌

[hexed mango]

yet this stupid thing still isnt fixed

ill take it but i wish i got akill

maybe the bsv isnt op, maybe the other guns suck

think about it

[edgy oriole]

both

but bsv is op

[hexed mango]

you have a point aswell

[edgy oriole]

This getting out of vehicle and not being able to switch fire rate or gun is very annoying. happens when using the drone too

I thought they fixed this before 1.0 and they brought it back

[paper owl]

using an underslung gl?

[neat oasis]

what is the best helicopter/plane controls if you're used to warzone or GTA

[neat oasis]

i feel like i have vertigo trying to fly anything in this game

[paper owl]

dont fly zoomed in, lol

[edgy oriole]

why are all the bad vehicle mains in cq rn only reason im playing it is so they can piggy back me

[hexed mango]

just play bt, easier to get kills with vehicles imo

[surreal portal]

I think Casper’s drone should be reduced to 1-2 bullets to kill

This thing is so hard to hit

I just got 150 assists easily with it cause no one can shoot it down

[lament plank]

i can assure you, its not hard to hit with skilled aim

[violet meteor]

Lol

[surreal portal]

Forgot you were the American sniper my bad

[violet meteor]

Player bad, I used to bad but got good. Nobody else can.

Why player bad

[lament plank]

no, just a player with t1 casper so i know how easy it is to get shot down

[copper fulcrum]

It really is easy to hit since it got bigger

[edgy oriole]

bruh

[copper fulcrum]

Not to mention things can lock onto it now

[surreal portal]

So you think it’s health shouldn’t be lowered or anything?

[edgy oriole]

getting out of vehicles is literally unplayable and they base all their challenges around vehicles

[hexed mango]

im in the walls

[lament plank]

bro youre in the matrix wow

[surreal portal]

Gosh damn

[surreal portal]

Bro so many ppl are colourblind

[lament plank]

wow thats rude

morbius gets on my nerves most of the time but dont be like that to him

[hexed mango]

im sorry <3

[lament plank]

shhhhhhh no dont tell him that let him feel bad

[violet meteor]

No it's just cool to change colors

[hexed mango]

i love the sirens added to the maps when retreating

[surreal portal]

I was just saying they got the Joker colour set kinda going on

[hexed mango]

i dont even have green

[violet meteor]

I'm rocking yellow on my ui

Also, tmnt set*

[surreal portal]

How long has the battle pass been going on and what lvl are you guys?

Just so Ik if I can reach it in time

[hexed mango]

i just finished the battlepass, we're on week 7/12

[surreal portal]

Ah oke I’m lvl 30 should I buy or no? I don’t think I’ll get there

[paper owl]

finished like a couple of days ago.

[tacit sphinx]

you can probably easily still get to the later levels because you can backdate the challenges

[lament plank]

i doubt ill get to finish the pass

[tacit sphinx]

its great i didnt play for like 2 weeks so i had 3 weeks worth of challenges stacked up and half of them are more or less the same thing or will get progressed at the same time

[surreal portal]

I’m more worried about not getting the battelfield token thingies so I can make next season

[edgy oriole]

i hate whatever the last update or hotfix was. this is rough

[paper owl]

first rule of battlepasses: dont fall for the FOMO.

[hexed mango]

the sfar ads thing has never been fixed tho

[edgy oriole]

its all guns

[hexed mango]

skill issue

[edgy oriole]

I cant even see when my grapple is recharged

[violet meteor]

Buy boins

[surreal portal]

True that imma skip this season

[tacit sphinx]

fair enough, i'm not sure what point you get to 1000 boins from the pass but i think it's possibly around 70ish since there's actually like 1300 available in the premium pass

[hexed mango]

if you do all the missions and put in a bit of extra playtime, you're fine

[paper owl]

I dont even think it's the sfar. it's the underslung gl. I can reproduce the bug with any underslung and I often dont even get it on the sfar.

[hexed mango]

i mean ive only really noticed it with the underslug, so yeah

hehe, thats me

[gritty crown]

whenever i complete a challenge im not getting any battlepoints from it is anyone having the same problem

[hexed mango]

nope

[tacit sphinx]

isnt the ads bug like. known to be an issue with underbarrel GLs

[hexed mango]

yeah

only 3 more missions left

[tacit sphinx]

that said ive been using the sfar quite a bit recently and not had any issues and i've been in and out of vehicles

[surreal portal]

I have so many objectives left

[tacit sphinx]

i do like the skin and the exoskeleton stuff is neat but it does give her the silhouette of a pixar mom jesus

[hexed mango]

im only doing the missions to get this, an insanely bugged badge

[hexed mango]

[tacit sphinx]

well. yeah

[hexed mango]

yep.

[violet meteor]

Woah you did it

2 vehicles

[hexed mango]

yep

[violet meteor]

I'm proud of you son

[hexed mango]

yep.

[copper fulcrum]

I swear they made the Most Vehicles Destroyed one rarer

[hexed mango]

they changed a lot of them yeah

[tacit sphinx]

honestly im still just assuming that this'll be fixed to a) actually track properly and b) cap at 1000 so that if you finish the battle pass you get t1

I love when someone says “trash team” and they went negative 💀

[violet meteor]

Your first mistake was thinking we would have a nation to draft in 2042

Let alone humanity

Fallout anyone?

[paper owl]

2 things are eternal in bf: first to call your team trash is trash themselves. and everybody is allergic af to staying on POI.

[uneven belfry]

nuclear war?

[violet meteor]

@hexed mango post your bf bingo card again

[wide shore]

This weeks challenges have really pissed me off.

[tacit sphinx]

im on old gen so text chat is pretty dead for the most part which makes it funnier because they usually just get zero response

[surreal portal]

Oh no this game on old gen must be painful

I bought a series x just to play this game

[paper owl]

'scuse me, I can't stop and call you trash, trash, busy winning the match

[tacit sphinx]

i think my favourite was some guy who was like 23rd on the team, 8-15 or something, generally not adding a whole lot except drawing fire and he's like "alright look im not carrying you guys anymore" and someone responds "didn't think you were anyway"

[tacit sphinx]

eh some bits could be better but generally speaking its fine

[paper owl]

games usually dont get automatically better just because they are 200gb thicc, eat all your memory and run like ass trying to win "best graphics at E3"

[hexed mango]

https://2042.bingo.echology.page

[tacit sphinx]

idk how it's <50gb honestly

vs when i had MW2019 on my ps4 it was like. 176gb or something stupid

[paper owl]

I really dont get how cod is so dummy thicc. like. are the devs allergic to compression or sth?

[pine roost]

Doesn’t it have the content from 2 different games packed into one installation?

[paper owl]

it's huge af right out of vanilla release.

[tacit sphinx]

smth like that, it's got like warzone stuff packed in as well but its also just unnecessarily big

[paper owl]

suppose part of that are the campaign parts

[pine roost]

Is it possible to avoid installing the campaign then?

[tacit sphinx]

also idk if its the way they code the updates or something (i have zero idea about how patches actually work on a technical level ngl) but it needed like. the same amount of space as the game in free space in order to install them

which was ridiculous

[paper owl]

dont think you get to. pretty sure that's a regularly requested feature to like install only the parts that you are interested in.

like you can only install warzone

[tacit sphinx]

the version i had didnt have access to the campaign (didnt read the small print on ebay, was a bit of a dodgy gameshare deal lol) and it kind of implied you could download the campaign, spec ops and possibly another segment if you wanted to

[paper owl]

and yeah, many games need additional space for decompression during installation.

altho newer patching techniques try to avoid that

[pine roost]

If I do end up getting mwII I’d rather not get the campaign, I never play them anyway

[paper owl]

I have warzone installed but not 2019. still can select 2019 and it prompts me to install it. so there is some basic division.

[surreal portal]

Exodus breakthrough making ppl rageeeee

[tacit sphinx]

i mean yeah but like bfv would need maybe... 10gb to copy the update vs mw needing 150+

[paper owl]

that's mostly uncompressed textures, tho

[hexed mango]

ez wildcat game

[tacit sphinx]

genuinely felt like a dodgy attempt to get people to only play mw by hogging the storage to the point that you can have maybe one other big game installed honestly

[pine roost]

If that was a genuine business strategy then I’d be amazed

[edgy oriole]

dont tell anybody, but getting a double kill with a gun then blowing up 1 person counts as a muiltikill with explosive

[surreal portal]

Bro I’ve defended 3 times in a row on exodus

[hexed mango]

yes

[surreal portal]

Pls Dice make it stop

[tacit sphinx]

wait that explains where the one i couldnt tell where it was from was

[edgy oriole]

dont tell anyone tho. theyll patch it maybe

[tacit sphinx]

sfar, just sprayed through some smoke and killed 2 people then randomly fired a grenade launcher in

[pine roost]

Btw how is the new smoke launcher?

As good as bfv’s?

[tacit sphinx]

honestly doubt it, apart from anything it would be a pain to rework the way multikills are detected purely to attach a source to each kill to eliminate a niche case that has no real effect on the game lol

[hexed mango]

better cause you get a fuck ton of xp

[tacit sphinx]

yeah the smoke launcher is decent, it's... a smoke launcher

[pine roost]

I’m talking mostly about how much it covers, how quick it is to deploy etc

[tacit sphinx]

good coverage because it fires three small grenades at once that kinda spread a bit and all have a good cloud

[pine roost]

I’ve not unlocked it yet

[tacit sphinx]

coverage is on par with or better than bfvs from memory, you can get it out there pretty quick as well

[pine roost]

What about its range?

[hexed mango]

covers a lot

has a decent range aswell

can shoot pretty far

and deploys quite fast

[tacit sphinx]

i havent quite figured out the arc of the projectiles yet, sometimes i way overshoot sometimes the opposite lol

[pine roost]

Sounds promising

[hexed mango]

its all around quite a good smoke launcher, plus with their smoke assists system, its fun to use to get xp

[pine roost]

I’d practically mastered the trajectory in v, completely shutting down snipers and helping pushes was so fun

[tacit sphinx]

its definitely like a valuable tool, you don't see it a ton but it is good for what it is

[pine roost]

Honestly a couple smokes go a long when during a push and I hardly ever see them being used

[paper owl]

the trick is to just eyeball that shit.

[pine roost]

Not so sure how useful they are in 2042 given its map designs, but it’s good to hear that it’s decent

[edgy oriole]

[pine roost]

I’ll probably make that my main gadget when I get round to it

[edgy oriole]

@hexed mango I need you. every team i get is completely bad at vehicles.

[hexed mango]

join me bozo

[edgy oriole]

ill do so after we lose this last point

[violet meteor]

Love it

[hexed mango]

my game might also be over

[edgy oriole]

we about to lose it. everyone is playing spawn

[hexed mango]

my game is over

ill invite you

Lol

ill join you actually i want to see it

nvm

[edgy oriole]

it too late

[quiet shell]

MacKay's grapple recharge should really work like it does in Titanfall 2, like there is zero reason using the grapple hook to grab a ledge at 5 meters and 30 meters should recharge at the same speed.

The recharge should be based on how much of the grapples distance was used

[hexed mango]

anyone know what this background is

[quiet shell]

It's so annoying especially on Exposure if say like, you use your grapple to get ontop of the overlook, you now have to wait way too long to use it again and make smart plays like grappling a helicopter and C4ing all the harder to do which in consideration of how overpowered the transport choppers are, it's desperately needed

[tacit sphinx]

idk what it’s called but it was just a free reward today

/this week

[hexed mango]

yeah but how i get it

[tacit sphinx]

[arctic grove]

Might be a ea play thing

[hexed mango]

i have ea play

[tacit sphinx]

just popped up when i logged in today

[hexed mango]

maybe ill restart my game

[tacit sphinx]

yeah

[arctic grove]

It’s a cool card, I’m curious too

[tacit sphinx]

mackay grapple recharges super quick anyway lol

every time i use him i’m surprised how quick it is

like 20 seconds or something

[fiery dawn]

yw <3

[quiet shell]

Speaking of C4ing helicopters, pilots have figured out the dumbest counter too it, turns out tilting the helicopter counts as a roadkill if the player is already standing on the chopper. Like that is not how it should work

[tacit sphinx]

ok

[fiery dawn]

I had no idea. thanks for the tip

[tacit sphinx]

i mean standing on a helicopter that is in flight feels like it... should probably be a risk to you anyway given the whole method of generating lift

[quiet shell]

Yeah but with how easy is it to pilot the Heli's it basically makes them untouchable now

If you're standing on the helicopter tilting it should only make the person fall off, not get roadkilled

[tacit sphinx]

ngl that is such a niche thing to complain about anyway lol

no one is using standing on a helicopter putting c5 on it as a consistent reliable strat to take out helis

[quiet shell]

Not when Exposure Breakthrough is on the mode list and the only way to kill the Heli on phase 2 is too get on it from above and c4 it

[surreal portal]

Holy moly I love putting c5 on the elevator in Exodus

[quiet shell]

Thats the only way to do it on Exposure breakthrough

[surreal portal]

I think I just got 8 kills with C4

[hexed mango]

easy explosive multkill

[surreal portal]

Wow you’re attacking

I’m still yet to attack

Oh I just saw the explosive multi kill obj

Time to whip out the C5

Bro I’m defending again

4 times in a row

[hexed mango]

went through the legs

[surreal portal]

That’s annoying man

[paper owl]

dont aim for the balls.

[craggy marten]

Me 24/7

[hexed mango]

ez missions done

[dapper river]

do the bonus missions count towards the season badge or nameplate or whatever?

[hexed mango]

yeah, they are points.

but the badge is fucked beyond fucked

like this is mine, it hasnt gone up all day

[paper owl]

ahem

"brutal expectations"

[hexed mango]

quite

also just restarted my game to try to get the free season 1 background and still nothing

[uneven belfry]

so the world will end before my 40's? in ur opinion?

[hexed mango]

good game, but that's 2077

wait

what if cyberpunk and fallout are in the same universe 🧠

[uneven belfry]

witch one first tho

[hexed mango]

no like what if in cyberpunk, the world already ended as it does in fallout, but when you're in the vault you get put into a simulation which is cyberpunk 2077 ez

[paper owl]

timelines dont add up. and cp had their nukes and still went on

[hexed mango]

i mean its pure coincidence that both use the same year, or is it a conspiracy

[paper owl]

they dont.

[hexed mango]

keanu casually nukes one of the biggest corporations businesses ez

[paper owl]

now, cyberpunk and kingdom hearts, tho...

[hexed mango]

cyberpunk takes place in 2077, fallout universe tends to start in 2077. that's when the bombs fell

[paper owl]

but the bombs fell even earlier in cp.

[hexed mango]

yes but why use the same year

maybe its a simulation of a reality to forget about the war of 2077 in fallout

[uneven belfry]

nice easy to remember number

[hexed mango]

or maybe its the opposite reality, whereas in fallout they used nuclear energy after ww2, and it became the center of society, locking themselves in the nuclear age
cyberpunk is the opposite, they advanced and moved on

ez

ok im out of here

[uneven belfry]

you maby right when youre in the cryo tube or something whatever the thing that you sleep in, when ur in there its a dream or simiulation

[hexed mango]

exactly.

ez connection

[uneven belfry]

or a mass halucination

[hexed mango]

microsoft and cd make it happen

ok now i actually have to leave 🥷

[uneven belfry]

if there is a microsoft employee reading at 3am please make a new game together with cd

[uneven belfry]

bye

[paper owl]

please dont. pondsmith has outlived his creative peak.

[uneven belfry]

dont listen to him

dont

[violet meteor]

Not in real life

[hexed mango]

fallout is real life 😎

[violet meteor]

Getting there

[hexed mango]

looks like it’s about time to spend $80 on gas

[uneven belfry]

you love nuclear radiation

[violet meteor]

Spend it on boins instead

You can drive all the vehicles in 2042 without worrying about gas

[drowsy shuttle]

battle pass completed. season 1 was, okayish... lets hope season 2 its going to be better. (low expectations tho)

[violet meteor]

Great review

Thanks

Between the shit I took today and the one I'll take tomorrow, I could use that review

[chrome fox]

my daughter has been born today

[violet meteor]

And you're already not showing her attention

[drowsy shuttle]

k.

[violet meteor]

You're a good zaddy

[chrome fox]

she’s getting more then youll ever have

[violet meteor]

Uhh

Yikes

[chrome fox]

[bronze sand]

Do rockets not count as explosives? 😕

[violet meteor]

Yes

[bronze sand]

what are explosives then? 😕

[violet meteor]

They explode after all

Things that explode

[bronze sand]

I used rockets but didn't progress the explosives quest

[surreal portal]

Is it hard to get S428?

That’s a lot isn’t it?

[violet meteor]

That's alot

I guess that depends on how much you like playing
