17 Tips Every Battlefield 2042 Player Should Know! 

What‘s a mechanic you would add to the list?

Tiny thing about throwing back grenades: Team mates can still be damaged and get killed from one. So you could throw them into your team thus killing all of them lol

One more thing to note is that squad leadership will either go to a random squad mate, or to the one who requested orders. So if you get into a squad and the squad leader isn't giving orders, you can just request them a couple of times and the game will eventually promote you automatically.

The tip about using Irish's shoot down gadget as an step latter .....I never thought of that. That's why your vids and you are awesome. I learn something new.

Veteran BF player since BF 1942 here. Just wanted to give a thanks for this vid! It’s great info and helps newer players which just helps overall team work and makes it more fun. Thanks! 🙏

man that Smoke Extinguishes Fire part was great even i didnt know about it after almost 500 hours of play time !😅😅😅😅 thank you very much for that

I never even thought to use any deployable gadgets as a step. Thanks

The tip to use ghost hybrid and 8T was clutch, esp am trying to T1 the new DMR. Love your tips TCW, super useful, even for someone like me who has been playing 1200 hours plus. I daresay this should be a must watch for those new to the series after the free weekend.

Would still love to have a zoom function on the deployment screen. Trying to spawn on the correct squad mate or beacon can be tricky if they're all close and some are in combat.

By far the best hint vid I’ve ever seen. Thank you! Dice should put this in game as a tutorial and make it required for online play lol. Would improve team play immensely. Thank you!

This is such a great video, thank you! One thing I will add about Squad Orders - to accept the order you have to mouseover the flag and also press Q - it will then light up an additional one of the 4 green dots next to the order. (For the longest time I was wondering what those 4 dots represented!) And also as a non-squad leader you can mark objectives in green that you think are worth going for, it will just highlight with one green arrow, not 4. I think it's a clever system! Props DICE!

Great video for newcomers! One thing that's sad with EMP-effects is how they completely removed the old weapon-disable for only part-disable instead of combining/splitting the effects between the gadgets. And how laser-targeting (a core-mechanic in former titles, with the most teamplay and coordination needed) still didn't get any fixes.

Another BF veteran too (from 1942), thanks for this tips @thecadwomen. YOU are awesome ❤🎉

Thank you for this great list. There were a couple of things on there I didn't know and are going to change. Love your content!

Newby here, THANK YOU!!! YOU GOT ME PAST A MAJOR HURDLE!!!! I was soooo stuck, searched for help and you poped up!!! So thank you!!!!! Subscribed obviously! Cant wait to watch all your content!!!! It blows my mind how much i didnt know!!!!! Haven't played since BF2. Thank you again!!!!! ❤

Excellent video, I returned to Battlefield after 10 years and they are very useful. Excellent work! Greetings from Buenos Aires, Argentina!

Genuinely didnt know about the grenade throwback or smoke fire extinguisher effect. Thanks Cadwoman x

Also, Mackay as a passive has a faster sprint to shoot mechanic, meaning you can run in traversal and shoot faster than any other characters, CQC master I must say

very helpful tips, much apricated.

I was playing a match and I accidentally crushed my squad's tank as they passed under the ship and the wall fell on them... I made sure to stay quiet

Amazing vid, thanks Cad Frau! I will be certain to share this with my 2042 n00b friends 👍🙏

It's so frustrating as a medic trying to revive and people don't use Ping,it's Super helpful and it's old school Battlefield, veterans of the game know this, please use it more to help teammates.

Awesome video, and came right in time as i was wondering if they actually added scope glint to all the 4x scopes aswell :) One thing to note though, in regards to the scope glint and smoke: sometimes the scope glint will also be visible through smoke, so thats something to also keep in mind when sniping from somewhere ^^

For console players that struggle with recoil (no shame in it) try adjusting your Field of View it pretty much completely eliminates the recoil on a lot of guns.

7:53 i wish they didnt remove the individual door lock panels on all doors. Having door locks before the patch made you use the destructible environment more...i.e. blowing holes in a building.

Very useful, awesome video! Throw those grenades back!

Thanks as always. Very helpful.

Nice video, thx 4 all the infos 😃. Fly high recon ✌️

They need to bring back the mechanic pinging the vehicles, letting them know that we can repair them. Like in BF 4.

Thanks for the tips!Its really useful.

Great tips as always. Even if I knew most them, repetiton is good. Thumbs up!

Good video, Cad! Thx!

Good tips, many needing to see this vid.

I never knew the smoke works the same as Counterstrike to extinguish fire. I always thought the red floor was dangerous

Awesome video thanks!

Great tips, thanks!

hi, does anyone know if there is there any way to throw medic/ammo puches like in bf1/bfV so by simply pressing the button once? in bf2042 you must press it to take the pouch in your hand and then press again to throw it... its a small thing really, but its annoying if you do it 30 times in a single match

Very hilfreich, vielen danke!

0:53 Meanwhile my stupid azz laying on the ground spamming R1, thinking my whole team could see the marker 🤣

Really well done and helpful video, just one tip: spot the hell out of enemies, this helps your teammates so much and gets you points and ribbons too. And since you're seeing more than the average soldier, you might as well hit that q button while scanning the area. At least that's what I do. Edit: that was supposed to be a comment on another video, but it's valid anyway 😂

thx 4 infos cad

Very good vid mary,please stay safe &busy

I am not sure if the portal code at least for conquest is working for the weekly missions. I was trying it on the 2 remaining ones i have for this week and it didn't count. Also didn't count towards unlocking any attachments to the gun i was using. Maybe there is a bug or it has to do with the changes DICE did recently? I don't know, but i will be trying it again tonight and see if still not working. Other than this a great video with various tips. Thank you very much. Hope you are having a great time.

The smoke Amit fire tip was the coolest

Prox mines can be tossed back????

Definitely some of the best tips in the game.

anyone knows how i can switch on those scopes from 4.0 zoom to 1.5 zoon while using xbox controller on pc ? same for cutting parachute , i cant even find it in the controller options in the menu ?

HERE I AM RANKED AT CLOSE TO 500 AND LEARNED A FEW THINGS FROM THIS VID

I hope this gets to as many players as possible

SO glad they fixed the spotting by showing distance

Aren’t the stealth ammo and silencer combinations nullified when spotted? I only ask because of all the spotting mechanics available in the game

Well I am a new player and I find this to be useful 10/10

Not sure if this should even be a tip, but you can call for vehicle and drop it on top of enemy and kill them. Or your on parachute or flying Sundance squirrel, steal enemy called vehicle in mid air. Still not evil enough? Call Angel support crate on top of teammates to kill them if they camp. Sadly they can't be revived so accidents happen.

noob here lol can you unlock and rank everything up playing solo cop conquest or do you need to play games with other players . player base is very low in my region so i can only get games sometimes or they all just really sweaty for unranked noobs lol .

I need to know how to play it without crashing, 2042 is the only game that crashes on my pc, I can never finish a round...

How do you kick squad members on ps5?

Is there a way to level up the battle pass really fast?

good video

When You First Get The Game It's Designed To Match You With New Players And Those With Low Kill High Death Ratio... You'll Feel Good And You'll Feel Like You're Really Getting The Hang Of The Game... By The Time Your K/D Ratio Starts To Rise Above Maybe 2 Or About 2.4 I'd Say And Once Your Level Starts Getting Up Past 45+ Or 50+ You'll Start Getting Matched With Higher K/D Players... This Is Usually The First Time You'll Run Into 1 Or 2 Hackers... But Just Persist... Don't Let 1 Or 2 Bad Apples Who Actually Can't Shoot Ruin Your Game... I've Only Ran Into About 5 And I've Been Playing For About 2 Weeks Now... The Game Will Be Harder When You Get Matched Up But Use Your Head... Think Like The Enemy, Plan Your Moves... Don't Run Around Like a Headless Chicken Wanting Shot At... Use Cover, Use Flanking Techniques, Spot For Your Team But More Importantly - Don't Stress... You Will Get Better, It Just Takes Time... You Have To Tailor Yourself To The Game... Feel The Enemy, Know The Map... It's Like a Jedi Force That Comes With Time... The More You Persist And Put Time Into The Game The Better You Will Play... Don't Give Up... Time Is The Key... Work At It And You Will See The Difference... If Everything Was Easy We Wouldn't Bother With The Challenge... It's Not The Triumph That Matters It's The Struggle

Anyone else think the new ammo an med packs should be in the throwable slot, not the gadget?

Where do you go to make these videos with the bots?

8:56 what map is that

Tip 18 and 19: Lis and Blasco are very pretty. That is all

Amazing how many people dont know most of this.

Wish the AI would see my landlines and STOP running over them on the new Port Game Mode

1 on PlayStation?

Server names plz

👏👌

That damn ping is kinda lame. All you hear is “da-da-da” every time someone dies. They should have limited how fast they can be placed at least or give a different sound for spotting enemies because it can be confusing. A spot at a distance should be different than the ping.

Melyik gombbal? Az sokat segítene!

Hey Cad why won't you try THE FINALS it is A nice game and it is open Beta

I use ai to unlock just about everything I’m just lazy and it works

People! Stop spamming the ping every time you go down

Spotting doesnt work all the times for my squad, idn why

The squad depoly warning doesn't work worth a damn.

👋🏼😵‍💫

Seriously a video describing UI?

Clicked off after .5 seconds

noobs need the stop making guides

There also stuff that is not well known. Controller players get less recoil. SBMM manipulation is real. Using any form of assist is only for noobs. Skilled players are not using it.

First tip, dont buy this game!

One more tip delete the game and play BF1 or BF4
