As a mine user ATM, usefull tip : only 2 mines are necessary to kill a tank (even a Wildcat) 😎I'm happy too see the mines not disappearing after death. But they changed them quite a bit without telling us. You can no longer place mines under water, now mines are more visible and will be placed over water, so choose wisely before planting mines
Considering you enjoy playing BF 2042 I'd love if you took a look at my newly released ONLY IN BATTLEFIELD BF2042 Fan-Made Trailer.. Good vid btw and keep it up
Thank you for the video! I wish the underbarrel smoke launcher would actually shoot useful dense smoke, so it would allow a medic to do a revive... just like they did in BF1 and BFV.
Thank you for explaining the new thing with suppresses weapons Edit: I say this because I run smgs with suppressors a lot and what as much of a first shot advantage as possible
The masterkey shotgun (underbarrel) had its rate of fire and damage reduced by a lot. It used to be a rapid fire semi auto that killed in 1-2 shots. It is now a pump action shotgun that needs 3 shots to kill
I always get so excited after watching tips videos like these because I think I'm going to use them and rule the battlefield. Then when I actually play I forget everything and just do stupid things instead lol. Btw, I noticed the underbarrel launcher is still bugged. You still can't replenish the Scar's underbarrel and you have to do a couple of things to replenish the AK's.
Im so supprised this channel exists. An intelectual, woman, professionally reviewing Battlefield of all games. First I thought this is going to be a clickbaity fake video that only draws in viewers but tells nothing helpful or informative. But its full of meta information. God speed for you!
Great video ! The new helicpoters flares system is so much better it is way clearer when you can lock helis again and it had some of a realistic touch which is nice :D
One thing they changed that I don't like is the way they now display the fire settings for a weapon. Before it was very easy to see if you had your G57 set to single or burst fire. Now it is very small and hard to tell quickly.
🤔I've always been able to switch the under barrel launcher and they have ammo. I do like the extra flair effect on the helios. The Nighthawk is way OP and we need ways to counter it effectively. I'm hoping this new update gets us a few more tools in hand to do that. thank you for the vid.
The subsonic ammo is actually not nearly as bad as the listed modifiers make it look. Many guns actually get better damage range when loaded by subsonics, and none of them actually get hit by the listed reload penalty. The only penalty you actually get is a hit to bullet velocity, a few guns also take a small hit to fire rate but recoil numbers remain unchanged from "standard issue" rounds which makes them easier to keep on target. The removal of the arrow from the hit indicator is actually pretty big. It doesn't do much if they _know_ they got hit by a bullet, but the indicator ends up looking like they took some form of area damage instead. Using subsonics and a heavy suppressor on my SWS, I've found that people now completely ignore the hit and just scoot a little to the side instead of returning fire as they do when I swap to a basic suppressor. The fix for UGLs is actually only for certain ones, the SCAR-M GL never had this issue. The other launchers it was expected people would opt for only one launcher, though the M5A1 and LCMG at least also had separate pools for each type of grenade. I'd be more enthused for UGL fixes if they'd actually let the grenades resupply off ammo crates instead of needing to interact with Angel's resupply crate for a _chance_ to resupply them.
Also, MacKay could always grapple vehicles even if they were moving, the change is that the grapple point actually moves with the grappled object. Seeing how he can grapple rockets and tank shells, I'm curious if anyone is going to master this new trick for express trips into the sky.
I am at work playing BFV on my laptop when there is a window. I showed it to some of my colleagues who are not familiar to Battlefield games, they were impressed. I didn't show and recommend buying 2042 though.
Sweetspots seem to be back. I use the SVK and now the bullet's required to kill an enemy vary between 2 and 3 depending on distance. Previously it was always 2.
Great video, I reinstalled the game but played solo to regain my bearings.I did note there’s a “joystick” option whereas in the past there was not. If I can’t fly with a J Stick I’d rather not bother. It could be an applet for a console game controller however
All the smoke grenades are kinda bad except the thrown one. It's the same effect as vehicles use, only the briefest of cover before quickly fading. What makes it worse? Some of the reflex and networked optics can actually make the smoke disappear completely when playing on low settings with some editions of RTX cards.
The grenade launcher attachments had separate ammo since the game has launched, so it is not something new. I played a lot using the grenade launcher and I know this for sure.
@@GrayEyes1317 Were you ever able to reload the SFAR's underbarrel? I can do the trick for the AK, but for the life of me I can't get the SFAR to reload.
@@Acheron.426 yeap, did not have any issues with that. However, sometimes when I switched back to fire mode, there was a glitch that instead of bullets, I was shooting grenades with the same rate of fire as the bullets, but that is not the case anymore.
You can no longer use angles Loadout crates to refill underbarle grenades:( Before patch 4.0 if I had 3 underbarle launchers on I'd also have ammo for all of them. So I'm not sure that's new.
I'm so sad they reduced Caspar's drone range from 250 m to 150 m. It's nearly impossible to take out tanks with the drone now. I think a better nerf would have been to limited the time the drone could fly with C5 to 1 or 2 min, so you can't hover around waiting for a vehicle to appear. Then you have to be active to take out a specific vehicle instead.
@@TheCadWoman C5 drone was overpowered because it took no skill. It had to be changed and probably shouldn't have been in the game in the first place. Stacking C5 and mines is dumb and there should be a mechanic to push those items off of each other.
@@bzerklyb Mines are so big and obvious stacking isnt an issue. It was that way in BF4 and basically was the only way to use them (also because they glowed when using thermal vision which fortunately isnt a thing in this game).
Helicopters still give me a lot of trouble. Anytime i try to shoot one down they just use their flares and go out of range til their flares recharge. If they get damaged they just fly out of range and use their auto repair and then come right back.
Wow, really cool of you to spend the time to dive into all this great info! Very, very helpful since no one explains this. I gotta ask tho, where is your accent from? Just curious. THX again for all your time and research... and also for keeping to the point with no extra fluff!

Now I'm not sure if this was only on last gen consoles but the grenade launchers always had separate ammo pools. I.e. h.e. had 3 incindiary would have 3 etc.
Completely okay with silencer hit markers showing, low/no sound and not showing on mini-map is plenty enough. I just don't like the idea of people being nearly completely hidden while firing, and receiving players being unable to react in a fair/balanced way. Cheers
Just a heads up about under barrel launchers - even before 4.0 I had grenades for each of the underbarrel launchers Don’t no if it’s changed since 4.0 but I couldn’t get ammo for the underbarrels from standard ammo creates only angels call in creates 🙏👌ta for the video very helpful

Thanks for another awesome video (you are) Cadwoman! DM7 help from anyone?? It is one of the few weapons I have left to master and tried CadWoman's loadout from earlier video and looking for post 4.0 help. I hate it. I know it is a mid-range weapon but I lose almost every near-quarters fight instantly and even mid-range I have to pump 6-10 shots to get a kill and usually the enemy find cover before I get the kill. I have tried upping my power but then recoil is a mess. Any help would be appreciated - I want to enjoy it but have been frustrated trying different setups.
Try the tacitcal compensator and the laser and fire it from the hip on close range. That works pretty well for me. I will do updated weapon setups next week. :)
One thing I found I can't do is find a full server or any server for that matter. I'm on xbox series x every time I hit play on conquest it sits forever looking for 30 players. I can only play against bots
I know that I can delete the game, cause that's what I did. I find the guns still feel like ass and I can't hit shit on console. I've been playing BF since 1942 came out and this is the first one I just can't enjoy. I'm done.
If you already have the game, why not give it another try. It has definitely changed. If you don’t own it I would recommend to try it out with EA Play first.
