Return of the Boomstick Battlefield 2042 

Oh boy you got the pin of shame

He's not completely wrong though

Tbf I was literally watching and wondering the same thing.

You are the noob.

Yep. If you dont see the noobs... You are the noob

MADE IN GRAND RAPIDS MICHIGAN!

There are many like it but this one is mine!!!

Yeah. All right, you primitive screwheads, listen up. See this? This... is my BOOMSTICK! It's a twelve gauge double barreled Remington, S-Mart's top-of-the-line. You can find this in the sporting goods department. That's right, this sweet baby was made in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Retails for about $109.95. It's got a walnut stock, cobalt blue steel and a hair trigger. That's right. Shop Smart. Shop S-Mart. YA GOT THAT!?"

Shop smart! Shop S Mart!

nah but this transitions are absolutly fire

It did produce some "results".

I always took it as giving the opposition ample time to spawn on flags for attempting defence. I don't like it either way.

It might be more appropriate with lower player counts but at higher player counts ( 64-128 ) it's bad. In general it gives defenders way too much time respond and they can respawn multiple times before you are able to neutralize it. It's becomes worse when you take into consideration it's not just Conquest but Sector Conquest.

What ammunition do you use?

​@@tonyn2524 he used default ammo

Basically buckshot 1

P.s. almost at 300k! Well done, keep up the good work. It's well deserved

Bf4 and BfH had some pretty ridiculous one shot ranges. The 880 is pretty inconsistent after the most recent nerf.

@@TheDBZ_KING7_Official good to know, I haven't played 2042 long enough to be certain. Thanks for letting me know, and yea unfortunately the 870 is my most used in bf4 😂

If you are sticking with 128 Conquest then there isn't a whole lot you can do. Play the game with friends that are willing to help deal with the endless vehicle spam. Go to the areas on the map where it's harder for vehicles to be around but are still near or on objectives you can support. Play a different game mode that has less vehicles or find I guess a safe space server in Portal that has some vehicle restrictions.

I think hipfire should be way worse and ADS spread should be improved further. I miss full-choke 870 from BF4 where you had risk vs reward, stopping to ADS to be able to drop people accurately instead of spam strafing and firing from the hip.

@@Ravic I do agree I do miss the different chokes form bf4

Oh there will probably be plenty of other 880 video content. I still have other titles I can use suggested on the previous video but I'll try to remember that one you added, thank you :)

I played around with the others for a bit but found them to be less consistent then the default rounds. I'm sure they have their very niche areas where they excel but it's a shotgun, it's already niche enough.

#01 is probably the best, especially with the changes to the pellet spread in hipfire and ADS. Just avoid Flechette, slugs and #00 buck.

@@Ravic Okay good to know I wasn’t just crazy about them feeling inconsistent.

I believe that Falck's syrette pistol causes bad gaming habits and it's not something I think that benefits Battlefield since it's a selfish mechanic that requires attention and action from the player for it to be used on teammates, meaning it's something that requires player action to get teamwork to function. When a player has a big box ammo or meds equipped when they put it down to heal or give themselves ammo they are unintentionally or passively healing teammates, so it's subtle or passive teamwork. Personally I think overall that creates a better experience for the average player or random person playing the game by themselves and for a Battlefield game's lifespan and player population how a game plays for those people tends to be more important. Irish I just find less useful and that APS is or was pretty broken so I'd rather avoid using it. Angel's loadout crate lets squadmates full resupply explosives in one go instead of multiple trips with a cooldown using the smaller ammo box, this was much more useful since the vehicle spam made it so they were constantly having to get more landmines. However now that they've nerfed landmines so much and still done nothing about the vehicle spam it's less effective. Anyways the loadout crate can still act as temporary cover and it can still be used to relocate teammates not doing anything.

@@Ravic Thanks for the reply. Falck players play more like an assault specialist with 12 med pens that regen instantly. Def agree that Angels crate is super strong. Wish more people made use of it. The temp cover is real sick bonus on top. Do you think Falck needs a rework/nerf?

@@gangsta_goose Comparing Falck players to Assault players using the med pen is an apt observation. If one didn't exist you know those players would be using the other no matter what. Yes I do think Falck needs to be changed to avoid such behavior but I also think it would require too many other related changes just to make it work. I think the simplest/dumb solution would be to make Falck's syrette pistol function like it did in the "alpha" where it revived players from a distance. If it only did that and revived at a lower hp like squad revives ( from non-medic Class ) people still playing as Falck with those changes would be doing so for less selfish reasons ( for the self heal ). Although it would probably be a controversial change that would make the vocal minority lose their minds but as you pointed out those players would probably just switch to playing Assault and running around with the med pen so I'm not sure it would make a big difference. Vehicle vs infantry combat is BF2042's bigger issue and it's been unbalanced pretty unbalanced since BF1 or getting progressively worse since then.

@@Ravic If people want to play that hyper-aggressive playstyle, it should just be limited to the Assault class as it fits the purpose of that class well. I would be in favor of a Falck rework like that, but too many people would be against it so it wouldn't be feasible. Maybe if DICE just reduced her syringe count from 12 down to 6 and made the recharge time between syrettes the same as the med pouches it would be nicer. Just something so optimal Falck play didn't detract from her support potential. Shoot if they gave Assault its 3 C5 back maybe vehicles would be kept in check. Last update is making loads of people play Engineer to try and keep up. Maybe remove C5 from Recon to keep C5 spam minimal?

@@gangsta_goose In normal gameplay sessions since the launch of the game in my experience it was rare to see Assault players or Assault Specialists regularly trying to blow up vehicles with C5, sure plenty of Sundance's flying around for that montage clip where they C5 a Condor but every game? No way. Anyways whether that is because it's so easy for vehicles to quickly move or get away or because the radius for C5 was so small or didn't do enough damage I'm not sure. The main thing we saw consistently destroying vehicles was landmines and Lis missiles and those both took a hit when they gave armor APS and then it further took a hit when they nerfed landmines recently. Before Lis the only thing that was really effective against armor or was something armor couldn't run away from and then heal again was C5 attached to Casper drones and that should have been a red flag for the developers if that is the only reliable way to take out tanks. But instead they keep going in the other direction making it harder and harder for infantry to deal with the armor/tanks. It probably wouldn't be so bad except they also increased the number of vehicles and reduced the cooldown on spawning them in with one of the later seasons so there is basically no downtime and it feels like endless vehicle spam. The biggest problem though regarding all of it is they balance it around 128 player Conquest and they do no scaling of any kind for lower player count modes which means that unbalance gap between infantry and vehicles gets bigger the lower the player count is. Sure loads of people are playing Engineer but the thing is there has always been loads of players playing Engineer and they've never been able to keep up at any point in this game's lifespan. The changes they'd have to make are on the vehicle side and DICE or someone at DICE seems to refuse touching the things that need to be changed for vehicles like active seats, multiple vehicle repair systems, mobile spawn points, etc..

I didn't use the Model 10-A in BF1, also wasn't it broken OP for quite a while? Kinda hard to make that kind of comparison. Anyways the 880 is nowhere near the 870 from BF4, that thing was surgical with a full-choke barrel attachment.

@@Ravic model 10-a was extremely broken, I have so many services stars with it

@@BoldAndBrash421 Yeah I thought that was the case, the better comparison for that one would probably be the SPAS-12 with slugs in BF3 ( so fun, so broken, so obviously banned in comp ).

These are from after Season 7's update so much more recent.

DICE killed my specific loadout of the GVT so it can't one shot to the head at all ranges so I stopped using it, that and they put in the Rorsch and won't remove that thing no matter what I do or ask them to do.

BF2042 has made players or at least me less trusting in the mini-map and it's usefulness, I watch it less than I did in previous Battlefield games because it tends to be useless at higher player counts like 128. But the real problem is there are still phantom or fake enemy icons that appear for a few milliseconds, they aren't real players so you end up reacting to or chasing nonexistent targets. It's a bug that has been in the game since launch, I tried to get DICE to address it, the community and other content creators whined and cried for other things to ruin the game like map re-works that ruined the game's original design and intention.

In the clips included in this video it's just default buckshot or the starting ammo.

That version of the gun is really goofy to shoot in this game ( single-action ). That and the 4x in this game has a really slow zoom/ADS animation that makes my eye twitch seeing it, so slow.

It's always been there. Whether you can hear it or not is dependent on what is going on around you although with the more recent seasons for the game it's to the point that it doesn't really matter because they added so many more pointless audio effects to fill the audio queue you rarely get to hear what you want or need to hear.

@@Ravic Kinda like that funny little scream when someone dies and falls from the sky 😄I can never tell if you added those post or if they're in the game. I swear I've only heard it once or twice in my game but it's probably blocked out from all the other stuff going on like you said.

Default.

I'm making some guesses based on the google translate but no I don't think that weapon will be added to BF2042.

I was messing around with it for a bit and then I realized I have to re-collect aspects/codexes and now I don't really feel like playing it. I was hoping Blizzard remembered it's a fantasy RPG where you are supposed to feel powerful but I guess they still think players must go collecting things they ALREADY collected before.

@@Ravic fwiw, they made WT1/2 like arcade mode, it zooms by fast in helltides. collecting is easy

Default, #01.

Nope. He was baiting

Default.

Default all around.

Damn. Haven't played in a few months. Been back on bf4 trying to be like you 😂 shotties look like they're even more powerful than they are in previous games.

Literally default in all aspects.

@@Ravichm. Alrighty. mine doesn’t do that 😂

​@@SeniorPrecioPay attention to where he's aiming. Accuracy matters even with shotguns. If the majority of your pellets hit the target then yours will in fact "do that" too.

Default, #01 Buckshot.

Right hand was faster than left hand ( was testing other hardware at the time ). I was trying to put down a med box which would involve first pulling out the med box by pressing a key with my left hand then throwing the box on the ground or deploying it by pressing fire or mouse 1. The game registered me hitting mouse 1 before it registered anything I was doing with my left hand on the keyboard so it tried to deploy or fire whatever was in my hands at the time ( shotgun ).
