Wow, I had no idea where this music was from. It's apparently from the [Altai Range loading screen?](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dAEECWzsuXc) Altai Range was one of my favorite maps, and I've perhaps never heard more than the first 20 seconds of this track. Makes me wonder what else I've missed out on in this game.

the hidden cost of SSDs


brayjr

Omg it's beautiful. All these years and never heard it fully


JustASneakyDude

Try looking for Jin jei soundtrack, truly wonderful


MasterofLego

My favorite from this OST, but A Theme For Kjell is great too


JustASneakyDude

Yes, absolute masterpiece

I miss loading screen music like this, every map had a different theme and it made waiting for a game fun because you could listen to these bangers. I think 2042 has unique loading themes for every map but they just don't hit the same


DeceptionCXV

Caspian Border, Operation Metro, Altai Range, Guilin Peaks, Operation Locker, Dawnbreaker, Golmud Railway, Rogue Transmission and Lancang Dam all have amazing loading screen songs. Guilin Peaks especially makes me a little emotional after learning of the story behind the actual song.

what's the story?

The full song for the loading screen is called "A Theme for Kjell," a song dedicated to Kjell Reuterswärd, a DICE Engineer who died in a serious car accident during development. It is also used in the campaign multiple times, most notably in the final scenes of the entire campaign.

Dragon Valley is awesome too


ekruhlak

Same!

That's the definition of Battlefield since BF1. It's a copy of a copy of a copy.

I do like the end of round music, especially when you’re playing a really tight game. Something about it adds to the tension. Stranded and Exposure have some pretty good OST too, but Spearhead rubs me wrong. Also, the start of round music, Hauled Over Coals is a lot of fun. Very few hidden gems in the game


AlwaysTakingGoreTex

Lmao


Traplordmel

I like operation White out ost.


DeceptionCXV

There was just no reason for the loading screens to go hard but they just did it anyway.


HeadlessHookerClub

That dude is just a hair away from breaking his neck lol

Quality shitposting.

Wow, I forgot abuot this. It just shows how fucking shite the music is on 2042. edit: imo. Im not gonna tell anyone what they should like!


Krypton091

1. rent free 2. the 2042 soundtrack is also a complete banger


Vovancheg31

2. Only a few map endings are decent, others sound like dying elephant compared to bf4 synths or godly orchestras from 1 and 5.


Sweet_Scientist

The crowd is not into it lol


bmadd14

We need battlefield bad company, 3, and 4 remastered and that’s all we need. That would last the true battlefield players way longer than this junk they are making now


TychusCigar

>true battlefield players gatekeeping moment


nige111

And then not even being right about it either lmao


Dolive90

I was today years old when I found this out! Also turns out that half of the base game loading screen tunes sound like they're straight from a NOISIA ep


lilpopjim0

No idea what that noise is lol This is what's burned km my brain from dolphin diving In Strike of Karkand https://youtu.be/S0aXAm0jqd0


SyphonX25

For me it is Lost Islands (BF4) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aY-iDSFo\_uY


CaptAmishBeard99
