if as i play rush 12M is best for me. if as i playing conquest mainy im play with paik AM40 or 12M is so good for me 12m is very effective for making some surprise attacks in the mess while playing agressive 👌
AC9 with Close Combat Extended, Tactical Compensator & STNR Laser Sight is close to the terrifying Vector of old. Better yet, change over to the Standard Extended & a 3x for surprisingly effective in a pinch longer range full auto sprays. People are also sleeping on the NVK-P125. Yeah, the burst mode sucks, but its close in hip fire on single shot with a laser sight & comp is surprisingly effective, and can tap away at disgustingly longer ranges in a pinch as well.
RM68 with the shirt barrell and built in suppressor. I also have a red dot sight and a thermal scope. Extended standard mags. I’m still unlocking all the attachments
Man, I can't tell you how many times I've switched firing modes, died, and got into another gunfight without switching it back. That's been happening to me since BF4, you'd think I'd learn.
I played 2042 at launch and thought it was terrible and uninstalled in record time but I been hearing ppl say how much better it is now and been thinking about giving it another try thanks for all the useful info might give me a edge against all the experienced players lol
Now it's a better game, but still not a BF game. If you don't mind CoD beam types of weapons, gimmick gadgets and tons of explosives that kill you through cover you'll be fine.
@shhinobii Yeah I don't mind futuristic weapons it is a game based in the future after all but the explosives killing me through walls is annoying af still
Yeah, just use the M5. Still pretty good at everything and u get it straight away i think. Once u have the shortened barrel your set. Have to say i prefer the M5 to the AM40. Only real advantage i find for the AM40 is that its better suppressed as you lose the shortened barrel on the M5 if u equip the suppressor.
Shhhh, don't let em know 😂 M5A3 been my main since I got the game. I'll sometimes play with other guns just to T1 them but that M5 is my baby. Such a good overall weapon
M5a3 is so good that i have to force myself to use other stuff. Its just too good. Short barrel + cqb ammo + thermal holo is just OP in close/mid range
Donnu what it is but i hate the m5 :p sometimes it feels like a good gun and other times it feels like it hit like a BBgun for me :/ . No idea why but i cant stand the gun :p
New subscriber here. Thank you for this video. I am new to Battlefield 2042, and only get to play about two nights per week, two hours per night. So ranking up for me is really slow. Thanks for pointing out these weapons that I can start using, with a low rank character.
Someone commented to me that I should come check you out as you had some great vids for new players, and you certainly do 😁👍 I'm not a new player, been around since BF2 but I really enjoyed the detail you give in this video to help new players. Big thumbs up.
Id take the LCWG over the Advancy with the small barrel and close quarter ammo. It has the best TTK of all LMGs if i remember correctly , u might lose a little effective range with this set up but u can still beam them since the ROF and zero recoil makes up for it
I love the PP-29 it brings back BF3 memories. But I prefer the RM-68 with the thermal scope and the SPH explosive launcher. So many great laughs with that thing. 😂
FYI, I think the unlock criteria for thermal optics was changed for Season 4. It used to be 50 or 100 ADS kills, now it is simply added onto total kills like other optics (e.g. get 360 kills with weapon X).
This is not true, lcmg still requires 50 kills while ads to unlock thermal and the AC-42 still requires 100 ADS kills for the 1.25x thermal and 150 ADS kills for the 2.5x thermal. I’m sure there’s others but I’m not gonna check every weapon just to prove the point
Tip for new players: Play solo Breakthrough or Conquest and you can unlock almost everything. That sounds cheesy but it really does give you a fighting chance if you're not great at FPS or new to BF.
Thank you for all the tips. just start playing battlefield. I am not a fps player, I was always hesitate to touch fps games, because in my eyes every fps game is csgo sweat player yell at new player…
RM68 isn't available till tier 40 so it's not really available to new players as I think this video is geared towards. I love it. First time I unlocked it I went 19-2 in a tdm.
Anyone else feel, especially with everything except marksman and snipers, that shots to the back should do boosted damage? You've won the positioning war so your enemy turning around and losing to a "stronger weapon" shouldn't happen as much as it does.
What is the code purpose please clarify.. or similar with the grinding weapon part? Please clarify..thank you. Rush ( AA6HW8) TDM ( AA6CS3 ) Conquest ( AAXJBX )
I don't understand why I can't seem to unlock my operators outfits using your unlock instance. I killed hundreds using smart grenades and the ticker didn't go up at all 😢

good guide, but new players dont get access to these weapons since the weapon progression is kinda like mw2, too damn confusing and hard to accomplish especially when you are in asia server where everyone plays like its their last day on earth
@@TheCadWoman That's what I do. Every time I want to unlock a weapon or attachment I play solo on beginner difficulty and it's pretty easy to rack up the kills.
That‘s three different tracks from three different artists. First one is HML by Tilden Parc. And the other two are Rapid Years and Skin Tone by Timothy Infinite.
also für Anfänger hätte ich vllt andere Waffen genommen^^ da gibt es welche mit sehr wenig Recoil denke sowas wäre besser für Anfänger 😁 ( naja zumindest hatte ich damit immer Schwierigkeiten 😂 ) aber sonst eine gute Wahl ☺ 👍
I'm totally the opposite of a new player, but I agree with these recommendations except the BSV-M. That gun is literally my favorite, but I think the fact that it defaults to single shot mode and switches back to that is a real obstacle. Remembering to check the fire modes of weapons comes with time, and it will get you killed. Also, the high fire rate and low round count makes it kind of the opposite of the AM40 and Avancys. The BF community loves the SFAR, and I do think it's because it's kind of brainless to use. No underbarrel attachments to worry about, keep the drum mag on, and it's pretty good. But I think the M5A3 would be my recommendation because it is most similar to guns in other military shooters. The attachments mostly do what you expect them to do, and it has low recoil.
I see that you use the thermal scope. I dont know why, but it does not always show me the enemy. The can stand 5 meters infront of me and i cant see them, wich is really annoying. And if it works, it seems to only show me the enemy up to 10 meters. What is the max distance?
Thank you Cad. Great video again. Loads of good tips. Sadly for me the ADS bug appear every time I use the SFAR, which has resulted in that I never use that gun anymore. It's a shame, as it's a really good gun.
How do you switch between views on the Maul Hybrid Scope? On a pc? thank you.. On SFAR whats the skin are you using? Yes not watched thatpart yet.. do not now if you mentioned it yet :P
What's your favorite weapon and setup at the moment?
AM40 your setup..
if as i play rush 12M is best for me. if as i playing conquest mainy im play with paik AM40 or 12M is so good for me
12m is very effective for making some surprise attacks in the mess while playing agressive 👌
Basically any AR because they outclass every SMG and sidearms like the G57 and Super 500 also make SMGs irrelevant as well.
AC9 with Close Combat Extended, Tactical Compensator & STNR Laser Sight is close to the terrifying Vector of old. Better yet, change over to the Standard Extended & a 3x for surprisingly effective in a pinch longer range full auto sprays.

Good luck man
No rm68? I unlocked it but haven't used it yet and it's the only gun I've been consistantly killed by
I’ve T1 mine already, it’s that good & I’m by no means a crack shot. The gun is still my go to at present 👌🏼👌🏼
@bebily1 yeah I just started using it yesterday. Honestly kinda underwhelming I'm still taking the svk, bsv, sfar, and pp29 over it tbh
@@senbonzakura13 I felt exactly the same… thought it was shite but I did the grind of grinds to unlock attachments & it’s transformed it.
RM68 isn't available till tier 40 so it's not really available to new players as I think this video is geared towards.
I love it. First time I unlocked it I went 19-2 in a tdm.
what's accuracy and what's handling?
K30 as an SMG with the drum mag is a good choice, too. 😅
Yeah, but the problem is it was nerfed into the ground. Without the drum mag, it's horrible, and very difficult to deal with multiple enemies. 😢
The gun is a pea shooter I’m currently using it to get it the mastery done and in my opinion it’s the worst smg
Anyone else feel, especially with everything except marksman and snipers, that shots to the back should do boosted damage?
You've won the positioning war so your enemy turning around and losing to a "stronger weapon" shouldn't happen as much as it does.

AM40 is dirt nasty
What is the code purpose please clarify.. or similar with the grinding weapon part? Please clarify..thank you.

TDM ( AA6CS3 )
Conquest ( AAXJBX )
It‘s just for you guys if you want to complete the weekly missions against AI.
Hiii thank for the recommendation.. are plays on ps5?
the problem is that the recoil on the PC and on the consoles is completely different. Not only visually...!
Are you going to make a video on the best set ups for season 4 weapons?
Really good video (and also voice)
All you have to do is use the pp29 and you will wreck lobbies slap on the wrapped suppressor and your preferred optic, too ez
Where do I go to too see the damage drop of mu weapon
Options, Display, HUD General and then scroll down to damage numbers.

What gun are you using if you don't mind
In game stats are lying. Short barrel on SVK have the same fire rate as long barrel
im the 1st one this time xD
my comment doesnt sent
I appreciate the result of your effort. I really like your work. Quality content.
M5A3 with standard mags (or close combat mags) and shortened barrel feels so good to use
Just out of curiosity the scenes showing the guns were from a pc then the gameplay was from Xbox why do you prefer to play on Xbox over your pc?
I play both, depending on the daily mood.
also für Anfänger hätte ich vllt andere Waffen genommen^^ da gibt es welche mit sehr wenig Recoil denke sowas wäre besser für Anfänger 😁 ( naja zumindest hatte ich damit immer Schwierigkeiten 😂 ) aber sonst eine gute Wahl ☺ 👍
Alas I don't think playing solo rounds works anymore for Unlocks.
Solo should still work. Portal is not working at the moment.
Glad I’m not the only one who goes into solo games to unlock shit
