The clip can be found over on the Battlefield 2042 subReddit, where the user known as maldofcf jokingly writes that his teammate now owes him a dinner after what happened. In the short 10 second clip, maldofcf is patrolling the cranes on the map Manifest, using a sniper rifle to scope out the enemy team. Looking across to a nearby crane, they spot a teammate about to be assassinated by an enemy player.
As the melee animation begins, maldofcf takes aim and headshots the enemy player, stopping the assassination animation and freeing their teammate from the respawn screen. Naturally, the comments section lit up with praise and comments lamenting the fact that the other player never acknowledged their savior either with a tbag or gun wave. Others sarcastically mentioned being impressed that the bullet even registered, considering the ongoing issues with weapon bloom and bullet spray impacting Battlefield 2042.
This clip is one of many that have begun circulating around social media from Battlefield 2042 players. Even though the game has plenty of issues, players are still finding creative ways to play the game including numerous montages of the level of damage players can inflict with the Wingsuit operator Sundance. Another Reddit user even showcased how they managed to get 16 kills in one second using a single Battlefield jet. Finding a crowded section of land and with a little bit of luck, the player essentially crashes the jet while also causing an explosion that envelops players standing too close to one another.
Battlefield 2042 releases November 19 on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S.
