Battlefield 2042 briefing - What we learned from the open Beta
- Thread starter Theorry
- Start date
Yeah unfortunately mil sim games attract a certain breed of audience.
Gonna need DICE to put some Pride flags and BLM cosmetics in. Wouldn't happen but imagining my MBT driving around with a little trans pride flag waving on the front right of it lol 🥰
I learned this when my parents were teaching me email at like 10 years old lol
As far as we know Specialists will be free. The pass will be cosmetics only.
Yes all specialists, maps, guns and any other added content will be free. Only skins are paid, and even then I bet there will be some free unlocks.
Battlefield is not what I would call milsim... Actual milsim games are so much worse.
BF has always been an arcade shooter. It's just shooters already draw in a type of person and then you throw real world military into it and it draws even more of those chuds. What's real bad is when it's a milsim like Arma then you got a real problem, amplified more if it's a WW2 milsim.
I see. I guess the extra 20 dollars is more for early access, because I don't really care for cosmetics. But I'm glad weapons and specialists aren't locked behind a paywall.

A mod said they didn't want to be the pronoun police which would make sense for folks who just straight up didn't read the tweet reply on the subject but that's just emboldened assholes to say shit like "I'm going to say her and so will all of my friends". Some skulls need to be cracked a little harder to get the message across.
Milsim communities are often more fractured than something like BF, just because the major milsim on the market, Arma, has so many different game modes with it's scenario editor. You have your big ones like King of the Hill, Wasteland, and [insert map here] Life, some that occasionally crop up that are popular like Exile. A lot of people just play with their groups of friends though, usually setting up a server with a PvAI mission, or sometimes PvP missions.
You do see a ton of people going around repeating the n-word in the popular modes like King of the Hill, Wasteland, and the Life modes, but the other gametypes it really depends on the community surrounding those. I'd say in the popular game modes, yeah the community is probably worse. I don't think you can paint milsim communities with a broad brush though since they're so fractured given the fact there's so many modes and missions and mods.
BF, especially modern BF, is not a milsim and I'd be surprised to see people playing it like one. It's not trying to be one and that's perfectly fine. The game is fun this way. There were mods like BF2's Project Reality that were more milsim-y, but that was also a mod.

BF1 and BFV use in-game only currency to unlock weapons, attachments, and gadgets, skins were through assignments or paid for. The Battlepass was free in BFV and it unlocked skins for the most part, only two pistols were ever included in that system. DLC guns and gadgets were unlocked with weekly assignments for BFV.
Any military shooter will attract the milsim crowd. When i was mod for the Ghost Recon community, i seen/dealt with quite a few. I would see them talk all the time about their plans in games and such.
As you are saying any of these military power shooters attracts an abundance of people who are right leaning. Some of them are just "normal" conservative types who don't bother other people but a lot of them are far right types who bring all the agendas that label brings. It is what it is. If you play these games you know what you are getting into ahead of time. The right tilting portion of the Battlefield community has increased since all the stuff that happened in Battlefield V. Fortunately my experience when actually playing the franchise isn't as bad as you would expect based on the online communities. But those experience vary from person to person I'm sure. In other words, the community isn't Call of Duty bad yet but there are plenty of bad actors in it.
Good they're fixing and taking notes.
Bots should be left to offline though. They're unneeded when bf servers are always full.

Frankly I'm not surprised. I pretty much had to unsubscribe from all Battlefield subreddits after the whole BFV thing. All them were cesspools. Emberassing

The irony of the Epic Gamer backlash against women in BFV is that if you log in nowadays, there is a trend of people with SS clan tags playing deliberate German/Japanese waifu officers. See quite a few of them on the Xbox ecosystem. No easy way to report the clan tags, I figured SS would be banned as a clan abbreviation in a fucking WW2 game lol.
I did also. Battlefield 2042 is the only one I occasionally visit now. They seem the "best" of the lot, although I don't visit the others any more so I wouldn't know.

Sounds like it. Maybe well get info on maps or battle pass stuff and progression hopefully.
We are close to release so hopefully general gameplay on other maps.
Whatever they're going to show us is going to SUCK. Alright, I'm community-calibrated. Ready to see what they have to offer.
No, just tiny clips spliced together into 2 minutes trailers.

It was absolutely dreadful during BFV, people weren't even there to discuss the game, just to hate on it. The constant bitching and moaning about 'muh realism' was 🤮 .
I just want to see a good amount of gameplay from a current build and not half second shots like in the trailer.
Hope its just full on g a m e p l a y
Based on how big Orbital was and the Ice map being more than 2x bigger I can assure you its going to be awful... on conquest at least.
