Battlefield 2042

[Thr0tt]

I should have stuck to my guns. Insta-regret - first match joined and immediately it was lost without even seeing a spawn point, nice, 2nd match well rubber banding, is there some sort of inertia on the models as I seemed to run then when I stop I keep moving forward sort of a standing slide, i would say it felt more like lag ? Needless to say couldn’t hit **** as everyone appeared to move faster than bullets.

will try again when I am calm and ready for disappointment as it may be good, may need to understand the mechanics of the inertia is a thing…

Sounds like lag or server lag. Pretty standard whenever Battlefield enters broken mode.

I saw it was discounted on Steam, so said to my 12 yo, hey let's check some gameplays, maybe it's worth the 20 equiv. 3 minutes into the video, he just said "what a ****" with a disgusted look on his face. Proud moment heh.

I don't have these issues. However, it is a bitch to find a game with full dudes. But once you are in, the experience is enjoyable...

[Thr0tt]

I must be unlucky then as each auto select map I have joined seems to be laggy as hell and my internet is fine and game is installed on SSD. Any way to set a filter so I dont join these servers ? Also, can you actually see your connection speed ?

[KAC]

It is missing a server browser. One of the reasons the game bombed so hard... I don't see any place to see the bars/lag.
You can't select much tbh. That is why it is a bitch to find a game for me.

Had some dope rounds. Scored some 30-40 kills and less than 10 deaths. Game is pretty good. Wish they would bring back the new map playlist. I hate not being able to play some 24/7 conquest on a single preferred map.

[Thr0tt]

Its in settings, found it under network, you can enable widgets and stuff to show latency and other network stats.

[Thr0tt]

Ok bandwidth and all stats look good, still a lot of weirdness possibly bots, tried again but after spending so much time waiting trying to get a game then finally ending up in one where the gameplay just sucked I am giving up on this P O S.

Been pumping this game a lot lately. I am really liking it now. It seems I finally got gud in it. Hit level 51/52 or something now. I like that my PC is fast enough that I am first on the map. Can get a tank and land 10-12 kills before it gets boned. Overall K/D seems to be doing OK. I think I end up pumping 20-25 nubs and lose only <10 lives. Can't complain.

Guns are pretty crap though so most of the time I am pumping LMGs without scope. Makes for great hits all over nubs without compromising speed or heck even accuracy lol.

The SMGs are completely nerfed now it seems and useless for almost all maps due to long distances. I also finally started landing some Sniper hits but not playing Recon class. Usually am shuttling between Support and Engineer depending on mood. Glad I can choose whatever gun I want.

I give it a solid 8/10 these days. I wish they bring back the Flashpoint conquest playlist.

[Megaman]

Ooooh, you like flashpoint hey? I too ,have been putting hours into this.

Flashpoint, Exodus and Spearhead are the best maps. The rest are for the tip.

[KAC]

Meganub you got the BP or not? I don't understand the BP, it seems it is activated because I think I am getting the unlocks (e.g., I have 200 BP as currency that I got by leveling up BP). But it keeps saying buy premium? I don't get this.

70 or so days still left. Not sure what BP will provide since I keep getting unlocks but am not sure why and how I am getting those unlocks.

[Megaman]

I don't have BP. Right now they have free BP rewards. Maybe that's what you're seeing.

[KAC]

Double XP weekend. For those that care.

[KAC]

Had a blast with Vayne and some randos. Got in a car and hit 35+ kills before dying lol. Guy was a pro in driving unlike Evileh who drives tanks upside down.
Good time. Vayne, if you are around on weekend let's hit it up again

I still don't understand why Battlefield: Command & Conquer isn't a thing. EA has both IPs. CnC fans would love it. BF fans will get something new and close to BF2142. Everyone is happy!

@KAC: Yeah was a fun run. Thing is, I have a daily ritual when gaming on PC lately. One round of BF and do all dailies in CoD, then move to my progress game. I usually play in the evenings.

Yeah, C&C Renegade 2 would be pretty neat.

That would be more a CnC game. I was thinking more of a Battlefield game within CnC universe .
