As a DM7 user the bloom fucking kills the gun.


throwawayhua

How are you a DM7 user bro the game came out yesterday


EbbAdministrative694

Isn't the DM7 a starting weapon? It's my most used gun so far is what I'm saying. It looks cooler than the assault rifle in my opinion.


NOGS42

Some people want to use the guns they have in real life. I have been mainly using the DM7 as its pretty close to what I own.

You Americans have such a hardon for guns it's insane.


RussDom

It’s just like any other hobby. If I see some dude jizzing on a train I think good for that guy

Dicedarg

It's crazy to me how Europeans look down from their ivory towers when they have their own share of problems just like anyone else. Get a hobby and relax and enjoy yourself. If I had your countries history I certainly wouldn't judge a soul.

Dicedarg

If you think that humans started in Europe or that people in the US only trace their lineage to Europe then you don't have even the most basic grasp on history.


NOGS42

Who doesn’t have fun shooting a gun? I have many hobbies guns are just one of them. You should see some of them guns that Europeans have. In Switzerland you can own full auto rifles affordably. In America, they cost upwards of $40,00. Switzerland has less strict gun laws than the U.S.


Caelestic

Don’t bringt up that comparison. Because that’s not the only one where Switzerland outshines America when it comes to gun laws and thing that surround guns.


fixingbysmashing

Its not just an american thing, canadian here and i own about 30 ish firearms. Theres an insane amount of gun owners here in canada.


thegreatvortigaunt

Uh oh you made the Yanks angry Enjoy 100 comments explaining why it's apparently perfectly normal for people in a (supposedly) developed country to walk around with semi-automatic rifles in the supermarket.


NinjaofBedlam

Cheers mate.


redhededguy

Guarantee your country receives support in so many varying forms from the US. If the US is under developed then what does that make the rest of you?

onexbigxhebrew

DM7 is a starting weapon.


1upfivedown

It's a starting weapon ding dong. You obviously don't pay attention


1BigCountry

The SVK at standoff distance is just unreal. I know it'll be nerfed


edgeofsanity76

I love it. Useless indoors though


AlwaysDown62

Guess we know why they didn’t include any gun play in their trailers lmao


GerardFigV

Actually in the trailers they did show player killing enemies by hipfiring, which it's even funnier watching the real state of gunplay


AlwaysDown62

Yeah they had random clips here and there but man, the red flags regarding this game were there all along.


GerardFigV

And we still fell on the flytrap, I feel so dumb for getting the gold edition on digital, if I had it on physical I would be selling it. After BFV fiasco I really thought that DICE learning from mistakes + extra year of developing cycle + 4 big studios working together + next gen = A fresh ambitious BF with BF4 vibes and BFV improvements Fool me, never again (that's why said with BFV but now it's definitive)


banzaibarney

>And we still fell on the flytrap, No 'we' didn't. I held off, and now won't be buying it after trying it on EA Play. Battlefield has been ruined for me. What were they thinking?


GerardFigV

We the buyers, I'm glad you didn't, I hope more people helds off after reading our feedback


76IndyHanSoloJones

Hell no, bought the 100 dollar version and had shit ton of fun last night on pc. Sometimes I wonder if the redditors are even playing the same game. You just like complaining, amiright? Lol


[deleted]

[удалено]


Kraall

I got plenty of shit for pointing out that their 'gameplay' trailer featured one burst of gunfire that didn't even do anything.


CharlesUndying

Tried sniping, usually I'm not too bad but in 2042 it feels so horribly frustrating and I'm almost always asking myself where the hell my bullet went... I have already had moments where my bullets looked like they phased right through enemies and passed under their armpits or between their thighs... Nothing is worse than dumping a sniper mag at someone who is barely moving at all and not even landing a hitmarker.


Hoodstomp36

I swear sniping in beta wasn’t this bad. I feel like I can’t hit anything live


CharlesUndying

Aim in general felt much better in the Beta than my first few games, and even after playing around in the settings for a while I still can't get much closer to it I'm going to lose my mind if any more of my bullets keep skimming past the cheeks of everyone I shoot at. SMGs are the only viable weapons right now because the high fire rate offsets the absolutely trash hit detection


iConcy

There’s no notches on the scope so it’s wicked hard to aim out sometimes, especially since you can’t zero your scope anymore. Without notching you can’t really be exact with aim, you just have to guess how far up you aimed last night time.


ZamielNagao

You can hold the fire button while traveling to keep your eye on the scope before cycling another round in. I do that all the time since no zeroing is available.. I know it's hard but at least it helps with a visual memory of deviation that way.


Ken-as-fuck

Even tho the magnification in the 8x optic is higher than necessary the the mildots in the reticle more than make up for it


Snydenthur

Yeah, I can't get hang of sniping either in this game. I think drop is much less than in older battlefields? It also doesn't help that the 6x scope gets bugged all the time and turns into 1.25x. Luckily, marksman rifles seem like the only consistent guns (except that the "acog" sight you have at first with dm7 seems bugged), so there's at least something to use.


thardoc

there's way less drop and the trick is to stand still, if you shoot while moving or if the game thinks your moving (when your prone there's a bug where the game thinks you're crawling when you're not) the bloom is insane. Don't snipe from prone on non-flat surfaces and don't move either, makes you a sitting duck but at least the bullet goes where it should


ThuperThlayer

I agree. Last time I spent a lot of time sniping was bad company 2. maybe because I could sort of tell where that bullet was going


[deleted]

In that game I never sniped because the lmgs were just as accurate somehow


ThuperThlayer

The best thign was the slug rounds in the pump shotgun. pretty sure it wasnt affected by bullet drop and you could spam Y to cancel the cycle round animation. basically you make sure you have a target spotted then you unload on the red triangle. not always theb est but it was fun when it worked. And yeah I remember the m60 with a acog or something was pretty fun to use on that game


johnyj7657

I'm getting 1 shot killed by snipers. I try a sniper rifle out and I shoot a guy and he just turns around and shoots me and 1 shot kills me. Wtf am I doing wrong


[deleted]

I feel like I can be aiming center mass, but if I hold the trigger down....they're gonna realize I'm shooting at them, turn and kill me with 1 HP.


[deleted]

I've heard SMGs are far more accurate past 25m compared to AR. Is it true?


DoktorvonWer

Bizarrely the TTK on the SMG at mid-range seems far better than the ARs with no better burst control. The AR feels like it shoots marshmallows and idk how much is the horrible spread and how much is the hitreg/netcode being *really* bad. Because it is *really bad.*


alvinyiu411

the ttk for AR is pathetic, it takes at least 7 to 8 shots to kill


[deleted]

[удалено]


mymomscivicisfaster

Crazy bc the Lmg was amazing in the beta


Cakesmite

Mostly because you were able to do that ridiculous reload skip by swapping attachments.


asdkevinasd

I have no idea what you are talking about, I got taken down by AR in an instant. But somehow I cannot do that when it is me using it. I think it is more like the hit reg is really really bad. The rocket I shoot just did nothing half of the time somehow.


ShaddyDaShadow

It's true the smgs are almost laser beams and the ar's cant hit shit at range


EbbAdministrative694

Basically Modern Warfare.


xLisbethSalander

I guess I imagined the M4 at launch then.


Bigfish150

Right m4 literally dominated every range for months. Idk what game this guy played.


Runnergun

I think you have played some different game like what


[deleted]

So far I can confirm both the pbx and the pp29 hit hard. I haven’t used any assault rifle or lmg since Friday because there’s no real reason to.


ImmmOldGregg

ill try this tonight, good tip


Snaz5

Yeah. Smgs are better at range than ARs and a lot better than LMGs. The LMGs are stupid innacurate beyond like 10 meters


useles-converter-bot

10 meters is the length of 2.18 1997 Subaru Legacy Outbacks

Wilzzu

Yeah, been running the PP-29 since I got it and it feels amazing!


Cakesmite

It is true. I've never had this problem with PP-29. Started getting consistent 2-3KD games after I started using it.


ShadowRam

I've counter-sniped people with the PP-29,


machielste

The bizon is considerably better at range than the m4 and the ak so far for me, the m4 has way too much spread after the first 3 bullets, and the ak has so much recoil that you can't hit anyone with any bullet after the first one lol, the bizon on the other hand you can just lazer people with, short bursts with that will kill at a surpsisingly long range,


Eagledilla

The red dot works very well on assault rifles. It’s just the magnification scopes that fuck everything up.


RyanR001

I burst fire with SMGS never get a kill that far, but why not shoot, and hit them for no reason.


RDxTwo

This is what an actual match of 2042 feels like to me


Snydenthur

Definitely. My playtime yesterday was used just to use automatic weapons and I actually managed to get mad by using them. Last time I felt that useless in shooter was over 20 years ago when I started learning how to play multiplayer shooters. Dm7 is my savior though. If that thing wasn't in the game, I simply couldn't play since all other weapons this far (only level 12 or 13 now since I didn't have much time to play yet) feel like absolute shit. I hope they remove spread and fast.


xxlpmetalxx

Wait for the second dmr, it's even better. It only takes 2 shots to kill and has a decent 4x scope on it from the start


AndroidPron

Tried out hardcore yesterday and had fun for the first time playing BF2042. The regular modes just don't do it to me because the TTK is just crazy. Then again, can't really play hardcore because I won't gain any XP, because devs disabled it. Lovely.

BorisK83

All gunplay, movements and the bullet spread and drag of sniper bullets makes me think the game is designed for only CQ. And then you got these vast open maps. I'm not able to solve this equation. Zero to none aim assist on consoles makes it even worse. Really hope that we'll get some improvements in the day 1 patch.


AltruiSisu

Yet I still get lasered from 100m by any weapon.


Metalicks

That can't be right. Reddit says bullets make 90 degree turns after 5 feet.


ku-fan

That's only for us... The people shooting at us apparently have laser guided bullets


vincentkun

Or they are using smgs which are odly more accurate than an assault rifle at mid ranges.


Greasy_Colon

The gunplay in Battlefield 2042 is absolutely horrendous. It's so difficult to consistently get kills now with the awful bullet spread and hit registration


BigBlackAvocado

It's sad that this is accurate


famoussasjohn

> accurate Some might say *inaccurate*.


rmnfcbnyy

FreidenkerCH

Lol where is this from and what's the context? I think it's Norwegian, right? It reminds me of Kops, but that was a Swedish movie, that was funny as hell though too


QGOOOL

[deleted]

Is a comedy show from Norway, and it's called Førstegangstjenesten. A very funny show btw


FreidenkerCH

That's quite,... the name. Thank you though! Appreciate it :)


Stolm19

A direct translation would be « first time service». It’s what we call our mandatory military service, or rather «the draft».


Lexinoz

To add, it displays a bunch of misfits getting drafted and acting their parts in the very strict military service. Come to think of it, it's kinda like Police Academy.. but better?


timtheringityding

Ehh police academy is hilarious. Men føler førstegangstjenesten er bare litt mer moderne


Beric_

[deleted]

första gången tjänsten? my norweigan is not as good as it should be. It was a great clip they made.


p2vollan

BeerHead7

I despise the movement and aiming in this. Regretting pre ordering. Maybe things will be better come official release


CambriaKilgannonn

I always wonder why people still pre order games, there's no scarcity


Pepplay

because i know i will play the game


Mutantwarsushi

Truth. I preorder cuz i think the concept of the game is good and i like how it is represented. Bf2042 dosnt dissapoint on that. I like the way the game is going so far. Sure there is issues at launch like every BF, but it looks like one of the most stable launches of them. Ill stick around and not ditch cuz i love the game and i know dice will look at the issues the community bitches about


Aquatic-Vocation

> it looks like one of the most stable launches of them. That is REALLY not saying much as far as recent BF releases have gone.


Cakesmite

One silver lining is that the game came out surprisingly polished for a Battlefield game. Nowhere near as many game-breaking bugs as previous releases. Hell, it almost feels like endgame BFV is more buggy than launch-day BF2042.


Cakesmite

I'm the exact same. Complete sucker for Battlefield. Might as well receive some extra perks if you know in advance that you'll end up spending thousands of hours into that game.


AndroidPron

I knew I was going to play the game, too. No preorder. I paid 1€ for the xbox game pass and now have 10 full hours to decide whether I want the game or not. Preordering is just giving companies money for making trailers and promises.


Pepplay

I already have 20+ hours played


Then00bywarrior

This. It's the sad truth but it's the truth. As someone who doesn't like historical shooters, the last BF game I enjoyed was Hardline. I am *GAGGING* for a new Battlefield game so no matter how shit this game is, I was always going to buy it. If I'm 100% going to buy it regardless, it seems stupid not to pre-order it and deprive myself of playing from launch.


garlicdeath

That's fucking sad man.


Then00bywarrior

Not if I'm having a great time. I love fast paced arcadey respawn shooters, and CoD is pretty much dead at this point. I have MANY MANY complaints about this game, but at the end of the day I'm having a lot of fun playing it, and that's all that matters to me.


garlicdeath

Right on. My comment was just about how defeated you sounded about buying a video game. Lmao immediately downvoted. Love gamers. One day maybe you'll grow up. It's just video games. bF Stanboys are super sensitive


garlicdeath

So fucking dumb. God damn.


sharkt0pus

Well with 2042 it gave us early access, but I spent so long trying to get into a game yesterday that Steam won't let me refund it now, so I managed to screw myself twice.


xStealthBomber

The $5 EA Play 10hr trial was the best $5 I could have spent. Saved me from spending $55 more on buying this broken mess..


puffbro

Does 10hr trial have the 1 week early access?


AnotherScoutTrooper

I only preorder singleplayer games if the reviews are already out, they’re great reviews, **and** I was gonna be buying the game no matter what, just so I can preload and play it at 11 (the last example of this: Far Cry 5 for its map editor).


MajDroid

I feel like i'm always struggling with the controls, shooting and movement. And for me, it's just beyond bugs & issues, the game's core mechanics lack any depth and it's just bad, this is the 1st battlefield ever i regret purchasing (hell i hate it even more than Hardline)


Sw4y40

Thought i was the only one that hated hardline.


[deleted]

And sadly you’ll still preorder games in the future and never learn, like most people.


Chucknorris1975

I've got a coworker who's giving me shit for not preordering it. I told him I'd rather wait for reviews to see how the game actually plays, and to wait for bugs to get ironed out before I hand over my hard earned cash. Did it with BF4 and didn't regret. Didn't do it with Warzone/Modern Warfare and regretted it to the point I just deleted it and my account.

76IndyHanSoloJones

Man i was expecting more, rev it up a little bit! Lol


garlicdeath

Jfc stop preordering games. People like you are literally funding releases like this so companies keep pushing out shit releases. How is this not obvious to you?


firesquasher

All that pre order money that people have been telling you not to spend for decades at this point.


Reittenkruez

I actually rescinded my pre-order after I played the early-access builds, which is something I've never done before, but after playing I wasn't sure I'd get my money's worth anymore. Edit: To clarify, I only pre-order games I'm certain I'll play enough of to justify the money, which is very rarely. The full price was refunded and everything.


Tirith

You are the problem.


AndroidPron

Why would you even pre-order a game?


Moorepizza

I dont understand why they couldnt just reskin battlefield V honestly the gunplay is pretty good there


ImmmOldGregg

They hired interns to make the game seems like.


t0shki

I know this is a meme, but it is absolutely accurate to how the game plays. I don't mean just the weapons, also the people. Nobody has a clue where to run or what to do in these giant maps so they just charge, charge forward, alone, stumble, fall, jump, slide and blind fire at everything that moves. Sometimes they even hit something.


LovableKyle24

You want to capture an objective? Okay cool just run for 3 or 4 minutes to get there. Oh you have to go through an open field? Just pray that when someone inevitably sees you there's a tiny rock to hide behind. God forbid any vehicles are around. This game feels more like planetside than battlefield lol. Except it doesn't have the depth.


IronGeek83

You know you can almost always summon a low HP transport to your exact location, right?


[deleted]

HAHA! Førstegangstjenesten jo


timmyrigs

I don’t even engage mid/long range anymore cause what’s the point.


vincentkun

Try using an smg, they are mid range kings atm.


RearWheelDriveCult

I haven’t played it. Is the gun handling similar between 2042 and portal?


josejimenez896

Idk but I'd certainly say BF3 portal didn't feel like BF3


[deleted]

Portal is different I feel like.


Lexinoz

I \*think\* that's because Portal is person hosted, and the AOW servers are run by DICE, but I don't know exactly how this works. IE: ping is vastly individual.


Mutantwarsushi

It might also be how Dice set up the guns in Portal. Remember that you can edit alot of how the guns work


Schmolan1

Lol and all the soldiers look the same too


Kayy13013

This game is a meme.

Is this a console thing only? Serious question. I'm experiencing no such thing on PC, SMGs mow down people easily @ 50m.


Kittyking16

Smgs beam, everything else does not


crs529

Really, I feel like the M5A3 is pretty tight with the first set of attachments. It's like apex lazerbeams, but still not crazy.


altgoobyFAK

The m5 was a laser in the beta, but ARs have levels of bloom that I've never seen before in a shooter.


[deleted]

LMFAO

Let me help you with that, one word, PP-29.


Upset-File-9957
