1: Mouse and Keyboard ASAP on next gen console,
2😕lightly Increase lock-on range for the Stinger and AA missiles as they seem useless to use at the moment with the Lock-on range being so short.
Update blows...been enjoying the only decent gun in the game the PP29....now it cant kill a fool 20m away espesh if they lie down as the vert recoil is off its head and bullet spread is attrocious because of the recoil you cant hit ###########
Have you seen the size of these maps? Where as before you could exchange against PC players precision aim or dm7 turbo fire set ups at medium ranges......now its a dogs breakfast!!!! Give us a break ffs...thats what the Pp29 did!!!!!
Secondly the patch NOW puts Aussies/Oceania in US servers with 178 to 188 ping the majority of times. 5 out of last 7 searches
You didnt fix console loadout glitch at all....
Was struggling with game lame weapons at launch, ridiculous vehicle OP, and PC players that was trying to find silver lining/having to play portal for bfbc2 or bf3 guns.......the PP29 was only decent gun in 2042 Conquest & started to actually enjoy it/loving the game putting in the hours as had an all-round weapon/gun
....now thinking i want a refund
The night bird and tanks still mash ya
Cheers DICE

also not a forum newbie been on EA forums since 2005/6.....
- 4 years agoJust do what I've done for now and turn off crossplay. I haven't tried anything since the update yet is the pp-29 really that bad

yeah but you know how many decent players use headglitch/cover - whats the point if you cant even hit someones head behind cover, dune, garden wall? What makes it worse is when its on the a flag youre both contesting...the whole game feels crud now
- xXHappy_PuppyXx4 years agoRising Ace@Lkm3274 Are you on PS5? Right now series x users have to jump through hoops to turn it off and most of the time get stuck in wait for player and never starts. As most series x users dont know how to disable cross play as it in a very unintuitive menu five screens deep. Where PS5 can toggle it through the game.
What's bs is in the beta series x had a toggle the same as PS5 and Dice intentionally removed it effectively forcing series x users to play vs pc players if they want full servers and quick matchs.
- 4 years ago@TheSalt Finally its nerfed. It was so hilarious that everyone used PP29 before. It wasnt decent gun it was way too op and sure its fun when it is op but it ruins the game. Guns should be as close as they are in real life. Submachine guns are short range guns so it was ridiculous that it could be used as a all around weapon.

wasnt broken it worked....thats why it was popular - without the Pp29 it was like rng you had zero confidence youd win a battle hence why they got buffed...
... It was equiv of the m4a1 in bf3 or the ace 23 cqb in bf4 where you could aim true and kill multiple bukoos in the one clip!! Theres 128 players on scale maps i dont wanna vehicle wh#re or camp doorways corners....i run smoke to cross open areas to get to half decent range - now its a joke
- 4 years ago@TheSalt Im really happy pp29 is finaly nerfed. This will stop toxic players to use it and game will be more fun.
- 4 years ago@jirikutil I understand your point of view but if you cannot kill anybody with the other weapons what you will do?

...and youre worried by a gun thats actually effective?
Chucking the word toxic in there just poisons the well...
As stated pre update its no more effective range than the BF3 M4A1 or BF4 ACE 23 carbine yet the maps, player and vehicle counts are significantly larger -
Buff the other guns yes,, the assault rifles play better but now the pp29 cant even take an enemy out within the range of a flag cap space and not behind cover within half that
It was a fun allround gun, that gave us console muggleboxers a chance against rapid fire dm7s, kbm players.....its not more fun/its frustrating to find something that works in this game to have it snatched away. There was nothing cheap about it, just effective....id take the old guns and ranges and recoil over it but i dont wanna play portal......its not a laser or OP why break something that works?
As for realism talk/guff some have been saying...hang on its 2042.....its not like DICE didnt take a creative stance with WW1 weapons for game play benefits in the past. In fact the semi autos sebstlader 1916 played better in ttk and btk than the AK42 and DM7 yet theres 130yrs between them.
Just move it into the AR class so purists dont get their knickers in a knot if that makes ya feel better? In a game full of noob aids like detection suits, motion balls, scans etc its the least of ya problems.
The game was half playable even with the 90% deaths from vehicles - sitting at 63% on metacritic why the hell would you take the only thing that works out of the game....BONKERS!!!
