On HZ, when data drive satellites crash down, you may hear the following quotes below. These may simply be a rare RNG audio EE that plays, or perhaps there's more to them.

34. "-420" when you die in a big vehicle
When you and your large vehicle gets destroyed, during the kill cam, a "+ -420" HP status will flash very quickly. It's not clear what the exact meaning behind it is, as you're not as "high" in ground vehicles as you are in aircrafts, though you're definitely "wasted" when you die (yet that would also be true of specialists on foot and in smaller vehicles).
@SterlingARCH3R This little hidden factoid could explain a lot about the current state the game because 420 is a slang for marijuana use, cannabis celebrations on April 20th, and/or just smoking it around 4:20 p.m. I guess it could give a whole new meaning to when you get “wasted/smoked” by someone in game. OMG! I my tank was just 420ed - LoL!
@SeriousJuJu Interesting, I see that it appears for the MAV as well. So maybe you're right in that it's not that it's "high", but rather that it's "wasted"? Not sure, I could be completely wrong with it, but I don't think it's a coincidence. I don't know the specific meaning behind it, if it only appears for "big" vehicles.
35. Random Battlefield 2042 & 2142 references
Perhaps these are merely coincidental, or maybe the other alphanumeric characters add further meaning. In any case, you can find the "2042" number sequence on the back of one of the semi-trucks, and the "2142" number on one of the MCOM screens.

- As some of you may be aware, there's a known but undiscovered EE on Breakaway, which was given the name "Lars" by senior dev Niklas Åstrand. We're not quite sure what it is, but perhaps the officially published image below may be a clue (there have been several EE clues for BF2042 shown to us in officially published images).I spy things I've never seen in-game before in BF2042 (yet)...
