    Bonus rant between me and Edgard about the missing scoreboard / all chat starting at 13:36 - a little preview of some of the game design issues in 2042 I'm going to be covering in an upcoming video. For now though, enjoy some smooth F-35 action!

      Jets would be epic if they left the sidewinder and put the AGM and no radar missle into a 3rd weapons slot. Then you can pick between going full anti air or air ground combo

    As an aviation lover I'm grossed out by the fact that the missiles are placed on those awkward wing hardpoints. Both the F-35 and Su-57 have internal weapons bays to house missiles, and they animated that properly in BF4 but somehow not in BF2042?

    • @jfd9616
      @jfd9616 2 роки тому +9

      I agree, one thing I do not love about the way how some things were made about battlefield 2042 is..... the designs, they tried to make the game feel semi futuristic by just slightly re modeling vehicles and guns.... For example, the "kriss vector" is fiddled around with a bit, but its just re named as the "K30" Most vehicles are the same, they dont look as futuristic, they look like they were took from the scrap yard and just re arranged around. Small rant in your reply section, just wanted to point out a few things.

    • @meaterschmitt8045
      @meaterschmitt8045 2 роки тому +7

      The F-35 can actually have weapons on external hardpoints, just the AIM-9s would be further towards the wingtips instead of being that close to the wingroot.

    • @Richard_Diggler
      @Richard_Diggler 2 роки тому +7

      If the threat of BVR does not loom, the F-35 will most likely carry weapons on external hardpoints. The F-35 Demo Team that practices out of Hill AFB routinely has their hardpoints attached in a similar location.
      It makes more sense because the weapon can easily be locked and launched without having to wait for the bay doors to open.

    I've been a gamer since Ultima Online but never played a Battlefield game, friends did and I saw lots of content about them and I tried 2042 because friends asked me to play it.
    The feeling this game gives me is like someone is trying to make a dish using all the available ingredients in the fridge hoping it will please as many people as possible but just end up being a pile of goo.

      I think the F-35's main advantage is how fast it can maintain air superiority - I'm not having to duel other choppers, I'm just wiping them out one after the other. By the end of that match most of 'em weren't making it past C1.

      @@RangerDave True but you didnt had any good pilots on the other side. The SU57-Felon can turn better than the F35. Also i think you should use the cannons more to get better with them. Both jets should use like in BF4 the laser guided. Even now more than ever bc tanks and AA's cant deflect them anymore and you get 2 AGM's. 3 or 4 of them kill a tank and they replenish fast. Also the 30mm cannon is really good vs everything except tanks and AA.

    @homefront1999 3 роки тому +3

    It's weird. But vehicles feel weird to play in 2042. Like for example the AA and Scout Heli. They have one gun on both sides of them. But the way they are setup is that the guns don't converge on a single point. While AA it might make a bit more sense. But I find it kind of tough to hit stuff since I'm having to aim slightly off to get one stream of bullets to hit. Then you have the attack heli that just doesn't feel great to fly. BF4 and BF3 had Helicopters set up well. Where you were able to aim and not go flying forward.
    The final issue is just the bloom on the guns. Like the jet. I will see a large croud of Infantry. But once I start firing then I lose track of them and none of the bullets seem to hit.

    One of the main reasons I don't think I'll get 2042 for a good while is just how pathetic the vehicle play is. Since they designed this game with BR in mind first and foremost all the vehicles just feel and perform like trash. Most aircraft that aren't the transport or little bird aren't even useful unless you get a RangerDave match where the AA is just totally non-existent 90% of the time. Even then the farming capacity is shit anyway. Ever since BF2 DICE just keep dumping on air players.

      @@Auburn7543 lol yeah until people actually start using AA. Dave's farming videos barely ever have anyone actually trying to stop him. In the beta these stupid things were getting rekt. Anything can seem strong when it's almost totally unopposed.

    "Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." John 14:6
    Jesus Christ is our Lord and Savior, all of us must choose between Life, and Death...
    Life is found in Jesus, and through belief in him as your Lord and Savior, you shall be saved from Death, and receive Eternal Life.
    If you reject Jesus while here on Earth, you choose death, and death for Eternity is known as Hell, it is separation from God and his Love for us.
    Please, choose Life thru belief in Jesus. God Bless you all.

    That 'cannon' seriously has the same spread, velocity and damage as an airsoft gun.
