BATTLEFIELD 2042 UPDATE #4.1.0

[Buzzfunk]

@Dutchie-Mario lol its kind of funny now how they keep ignoring the most requested updates like a serve browser and all chat. Had the seasons 4 maps each (like past BF games) we would have 16 newer maps to play with. Add a browser to it and you would have a winner. Too bad.

@Buzzfunk Yes I understand you. They say to listen to the community, still haven't found out which one, doing surveys while the whole forum is filled, bit that's to much asked. Spend another night in Battlechopper, that's a better name, playing another crap update with no additions at all.

There was a bug in Portal Web Builder.The Caspian border map will become a Caspian border gas station after being added to the map rotation list in Ground Superiority mode.

They only listen big Youtubers that whine about visibility, demand scope glint and now Claymores to be more visible. I think we mere mortals have no voice in these matters

A big thank you for including RPKs. The models look great and ironsights also look great. I was afraid that ironsights would look bad as on STG44. But no, the models look great !

Ironsights on STG-44 ideally should be remade to look better, similarly how RPK and AKs have it. At the moment looks like it's from some mobile game or PS1-2 game.

Firing sound of both RPKs is too quiet, also suppressed fire and un-suppressed firing sounds are almost identical. 

Go on empty server, equip RPK-74M, ADS and do a short burst.

Now equip suppressor go ADS and do a short burst.

Remove suppressor, go ADS and fire again.

You can hear that sound difference between suppressed and un-suppressed is very small. They sound almost identical, except un-suppressed has a quiet echo to it. 

When you go to live server with other players playing, RPK sounds too quiet and you can't really tell difference between suppressed and un-suppressed sound.

The other thing I've noticed with RPKs is that something does not feel right. Up close, RPKs shreds enemies without a problem. Everything past 30m, killing enemy appears to be difficult. Maybe bullet speed is too slow, or damage drop is too strong. Can't put my finger to it, but go and test against bots who are further away and it's harder to kill them. Bots don't move so much, no ADAD and yet killing them past, i guess 30m feels slow?  Go against real players who move non stop, ADAD like crazy. Killing them becomes very difficult.

So either bullets are too slow or damage range is too short, maybe it's something else? Either way RPK effectiveness feels weak past ~30m.

But again, RPK look phenomenal and I'm really glad I get to play with them in BF2042.

@nano3570   Agreed with Everything you said.

I have been asking for MORE Maps for ages. This game is so boring due to the lack of different places and looks etc that there is no real difference. And once inside, they all tend to look the same anyway.

I also agree with the Sea side of things too. Oh, and how about being able to parachute from a C130 instead of just a helicopter drop off.

And where are the circling Gunships we used to have.  This game hasent gone forwards, it's gone Backwards.

Don't know why you want more content when you should want more fixes first

[nano3570]

Okay, here; If they both fix the bugs and do our requests, it means we have a deal.

On PS hazard zone now requires 16 players to start instead of 12... bravo srsl, now it is impossible to start a round, horrible decision.

The day 2042 gets an AC-130 and more Portal Maps is the day I change my Steam review from Negative to Positive.

The review will read as:

Recommends Battlefield 2042 because:

Has AC-130.

You're probably wondering why though? It's because if a Battlefield game can have an AC-130, it's because they've fixed everything below it. Having an AC-130 relies on so much being right from  Anti-Air, Jets and sound design that you could say, its why only the commander could call it in, in BF4.

Overall though, good update.

I'm seeing far less UI artifacts.
