N O P E

[jolly quartz]

yeah me too

They could just reskin the prologue and not have a timer on it

You just defend as long as you can

[quaint gyro]

limited ammo lol

[jolly quartz]

Swapping between people after each death

[quaint gyro]

Yeah that was cool

actual soldiers who died as well

[jolly quartz]

still the coolest thing

[quaint gyro]

no shortage of names to go through

[jolly quartz]

Humanises the game more

[quaint gyro]

Untapped potential

after the shitshow of BF4's sp campaign

they really did a good job with it this game

Just need MOAR.

[jolly quartz]

Yeah and they kind left it open to add more

I understand the costs but just use assesets you've already got

[quaint gyro]

Mmmhm

[late spruce]

italian??

[prisma prism]

A bit late to the party but we have an Italian campaign

Avanti Savoia

[winged oracle]

The only thing that disappointed me about BF1 was there was no campaign focusing on somebody from the Central Powers

the whole point of that "behind every gunsight is a human being" I took to mean even the "bad guys"

WW1 there was no clear "bad guy"

It was merely a horrible way to release the tension that had been building across Europe since the mid-1800s

even the leaders, who were all cousins, wrote letters to each other questioning why they were even fighting

[shut walrus]

I agree.

[jolly quartz]

apart from the Turks committing genocide

[shut walrus]

that never happened

[solid hinge]

kek

[jolly quartz]

Really though in the campaign no one but that Turkish officer is depicted as bad

You listen to the Germans whilst in the trenches and they are very much human

[solid hinge]

rule 3 guis

@shut walrus are you from turkey btw

[shut walrus]

no im no kebab boi

[solid hinge]

sure

[jolly quartz]

He kebob

[winged oracle]

I actually really liked the Turkish officer guy

he's a really, really good character for the brief time that we see him

[manic bridge]

ay team

[shut walrus]

o/

[manic bridge]

how are you all?

[shut walrus]

Guud, you?

[somber gyro]

bad

[shut walrus]

how so?

[somber gyro]

skool

[shut walrus]

aah I see, work for me :/

but tomorrow's Friday!

[somber gyro]

Work right after school

[shut walrus]

Damn, you don't get any breaks do you?

[somber gyro]

The occasional day off. Can only hope it's on the weekend

[shut walrus]

[somber gyro]

[manic bridge]

glad to hear, im doing ok myself Sprays!

[prime field]

damn muffin boi

[somber gyro]

Y'know. Gotta and get that 💰

[somber gyro]

Now you can actually see it

[bold silo]

wow cod ww2 is a joke compared to battlefield

[prime field]

well good luck with that

[manic bridge]

uuu, new DLC 5th september!

[somber gyro]

With premium...

[manic bridge]

true, but doesn't everyone have that by now? lel

[somber gyro]

I'm pretty sure there's still people out there without it

But i'm sure they have reasons

[manic bridge]

yeah

[solid hinge]

I do.

It's because it's $60

[manic bridge]

it was on sale not too long ago so :p but im not sure if i would buy it at 60$ either

[winged oracle]

It was only on sale on PC

It was still $50 on Xbox, and I ended up buying it anyway, but I would have sure liked if it was $30 like implied

[rapid crescent]

did theyadd new servers into CTE???

for console??

[solid hinge]

I saw that Galicia is out :o

Looks fucking nice.

what

cte?

But I haven't seen the landship pattern for Russia.

Ye.

[rapid crescent]

im currently DL atm

[solid hinge]

I need to see the vehicle patterns honestly.

Also what planes are Russia using?

Ohh, new CTE?

Ye.

Austro-Russian.

Nice flat fields, good for armored maneuver.

Oh sweet, it's the map I've looked forward to the most

reddit says nothing about Galicia

Noticed that too, r/battlefield_live is oddly quiet

Westie did a video.

This was just uploaded though https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_tVEqYWWOtQ

Ye.

Ha, beat me to it

These Garford trucks are p good.

Albeit the main weapon is a pain.

Now that the DLC is so close I almost want to ignore the CTE entirely and have the rest unspoiled

...can't help with actual testing then though

Testing helps.

Tell me about it, I'm a game dev 😄

Hue.

What's great now is the Scout being a woman is justified.

Because Bolsheviks were added.

And the Provisional Government made a Women's Battalion.

imo it's a slightly irrelevant discussion anyway - the 'experimental' weapons were hardly used either, BF1 just takes some liberties in what the game expresses, same with women soldiers, the historical accuracy of it isn't all that important

But I'm sure that's been discussed to death already anyway

I'm planning to make a mini-novel based on how BF1 follows through. As more DLCs and more content is added, I keep brainstorming.

End result is a novel that acts like a history book.

At this point, BF1 in Dice's world is obviously way past 1918.

Ha, for sure - but they never pretended to be 100% about historical accuracy anyway, BF is not arma 😄

True.

...but you're right, to interpret BF1 into a novel could be interesting

More content for me

[lament sinew]

@everyone HARDCORELEAGUE.CO FFE Recruitment Grounds needs more opposing forces! Search and join the game if your looking for some action!

[jolly quartz]

Bf1 is authentic

[solid hinge]

@lament sinew rule 6 boiiii

true

[winged oracle]

I interpret BF1 in general as being set in mid-late 1918, which is why everyone and their mother has an SMG

Towards the end of WW1 everyone saw the MP-18 and was like "holy shit these are revolutionary"

[fallow mountain]

@winged oracle Even in mid-late 1918 smgs were insanely rare

[solid hinge]

And thus.

1920 was born.

Tactics change, iron beasts roam the fields in search of prey, the skies are filled with the roar of canvas engines.

Troops rush from their trenches and into buildings, abandoning the archaic tactics of years before.

Gentlemen, this is our war.

Glitch Mob

[jolly quartz]

iron harvest

[solid hinge]

Blegh.

Would've preferred it to be like BF1.

All I hope is that we can control individual units.

[winged oracle]

Actually, towards the end of the war, the trenches were indeed more or less abandoned and it became a lot more fluid like we see in BF1

a lot of people when the game came out were like "but muh trenches"...they don't realize that like once Kaiserschlacht failed, the war started looking a lot more like WW2

less trenches and a lot of open-ground, intense fighting supported by more and more armor

[quaint gyro]

Some of the stuff France planned to do was absolutely mad.

They were going to make thousands of Renault tanks to attack with all at once in one of their battle plans.

No telling what the war would've looked like if it'd kept going. Maybe it would have turned into Iron Harvest rofl

[jolly quartz]

Battle of Le Hamel is literally a battle that would fit bf1 perfectly

Infantry supported by tanks and aircraft with supplies being dropped from planes ahead of the advancing force

Monash predicted it would take 90 minutes

It took 93 minutes

That battle was literally the birth of modern warfare as we know it today

[solid hinge]

FUCK

I was winning a goddamn match, 970-365

Even ranked up in assault

Then the game decided to crash

[jolly quartz]

[solid hinge]

I got the Gewehr 98 Marksman

Do the Sniper variants have higher zoom?

Yes

And a bipod

[shut walrus]

Beware, sniper variants have a scope glint that the enemy can see.

They can only see it when you ADS though I believe.

[fallow mountain]

as long as you stick to a 4x scope or under you're fine

[jolly quartz]

the magnifications have nothing to do with glint

the 1895 sniper, Gewehr 98 sniper, m1903 sniper and Lebel sniper are the only weapons to produce glint

Trench periscope also produces glint

Marksman scopes are 2.5x, 3x, 3.5x, 4x

Sniper scopes are 5x, 6x, 8x, 10x

Glint only occurs in sunny weather when ads

[loud thorn]

only occurs in sunny weather

[winged oracle]

I'm pretty sure I've seen glint when it's raining

[jolly quartz]

its meant to only occur in sunny weather

I don't use em so i don't really care

If they could be used like Verdun maybe I'd show more interest in them

[real siren]

Glint also isn't meant to be seen through terrain either.

[loud thorn]

meant that word means nothing to dice

[real siren]

Buzzword of the moment is "competitive" :^)

[rugged merlin]

i think the new dlc should have at least 1 russia vs ottomans map

but of course it doesnt

[shut walrus]

I think it's 3 vs Austia-Hungary, 2 against Sovjets, and 1 against Germany.

[rugged merlin]

yeah

[winged oracle]

Russia fought the Ottomans more on the sea I think

[daring walrus]

Hi guys, do we need to log in into our EA Account when playing BF1 on PS4?

[solid hinge]

Is the last of the summer missions (frontlines) live?

[winged oracle]

Huh, apparently there was quite some fighting over land against the Ottomans

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caucasus_Campaign

I'm also kind of disappointed the Russian DLC didn't have the Medium Tank Mark A "Whippet", the idea of having it in the Russian DLC I got from a drawing of one in White Russian service with the front MG replaced by a 37mm gun (the same as on the base Light Tank), but I understand the inclusion of the Putilov

Hopefully the Whippet becomes the Apocalypse DLC vehicle

[untold remnant]

anyone know if the Battlefield 1 Revolution on console/disc comes with the DLC/Season Pass as a code?

[solid hinge]

hello boiz

btw how do u get dlcs?

and what dlcs are on bf1?

https://www.origin.com/usa/en-us/store/battlefield/battlefield-1/addon/battlefield-1-premium-pass

Or individually - https://www.origin.com/usa/en-us/store/browse?fq=gameType:dlc,franchise:battlefield

ty kind sir

The Premium pass has 4 major DLCs - 1 is out, another one is coming on Tuesday, and the others are planned for December and 'early 2018' respectively

[solid hinge]

why haven't you thanked our EA/DICE overlords yet for upcoming lmg update?

What are they doing to lmgs?

[winged oracle]

LMG update? Are they rebalancing the MG14 and Perino?

[solid hinge]

Buff the Lewis! It's already my favorite lmg 😄

[winged oracle]

The Lewis is pretty good as it is

most of the existing Support weapons are pretty balanced IMO

[solid hinge]

Yeah, I don't think it's too weak - just know that a lot of people think so, so would be an extra bonus 😄

But yeah, Lewis definitely feels balanced to me

At least the suppressive, by far my most used weapon

[solid hinge]

...that's a good point though, Support weapons really feel balanced compared to the other classes

[winged oracle]

I used to use the Lewis Gun Suppressive a lot but I fell into using the MG15 nA Storm

The AA sights on the MG15 are really good

[solid hinge]

Will have to try that more

[jolly quartz]

@untold remnant it should

[manic bridge]

ay bruvs

no response, ok, i'll see myself out

[solid hinge]

Yo my g

[jolly quartz]

This weapons 'balance' update

Stop.

[solid hinge]

No u

[quaint gyro]

ain't it great

I do wonder if the haters still in BF4 will change their minds after this one.

if the ttk is supposedly more like bf4..

even though I liked the current ttk anyways..

[wet holly]

I can't beleive battlefield one is $60

I'm jumping on it now, but I feel lie everyone who bought the game at launch got a bad deal

[solid hinge]

Yea we did

I even bought the premium pass afterwards too hahaAa

[real siren]

#MakeLMG'sGreatAgain

Now people might put down the Tomatico.

[jolly quartz]

If people aren't using the lmgs now they won't use them ever

[unborn iris]

What balance is occurring?

[jolly quartz]

Dice being dice

Smgs and lmgs are getting damage buffs

Shotguns are getting reworked pellet spread and 12 pellets across the board

Slrs are becoming more spam able

not that it matters because smgs and lmgs will now shread you even faster

Scouts are basically getting pushed to snipe

And cavalry getting hard fisted by all this to the point Dice may as well remove it from the game

Already insanely weak ATM

[solid hinge]

sounds like a lot of complaining

I haven't tried the changes out yet but it can't POSSIBLY be as bad as you're stating

[jolly quartz]

I'm not making shite up its exactly wants in CTE ATM

As well as RSC not actually working full stop

RSC and Autoloading .35 unique kill range both it extends from 47m -> 70m

Rip vanilla users, scouts and medics

It's bf4

That two battlefield games ruined by bf4

Hope you people are happy

one of the best things about bf1 was that it WASN'T BF4

Also a big fuck you to the console community

Yet again left in the dirt and no say in anything

not like we are the massive majority population of the game or whatever

Bout done with this franchise

Instead of addressing core issues and fixing the game especially the NetCode

Nah fam lets mess with the balance to appease people that either

A) don't play the game anymore

B) never got the game

C) L33T MLG pro 'comp' players

Screw the playerbase that have been playing since launch because I dunno WE ENJOYED THE GAME HOW IT WAS

[fallow mountain]

Personally I don't have any issues with balance. I think the problems that are there are pretty minor for example no operations server browser or all dlc maps/no non map voting servers

imo

Also can you elaborate what you don't like about bf4 and how they are screwing the console community.

I'm curious

[south flicker]

I'm exited about the new changes

[grand ingot]

who says console won't get to test those changes?

[wary mason]

no one, at least from any official source

[trail flame]

It was mentioned console will get to test it at a later date - issue with the CTE is consoles require certification for updates which is why they take so long.

[ornate ferry]

lapis lurking in offline mode 👀

[winged oracle]

So...is the idea of this making shotguns bad but already good automatic guns and medic weapons even better?

Like, okay, the 10-A Hunter is pretty infuriating to get shot by, but no less infuriating than the Hellriegel, Automatico, or BAR

the rate of fire on those guns is high enough to where if you catch someone in the back they don't have any time to turn around before you drop them

[loud thorn]

idk how shotguns are now

but before they were the only real answer to zergers

[prisma prism]

Are we like

Forgetting there's a reason it's in CTE

And not currently coming into play

Good lord people, if you think it's bad voice your concerns, it's the community test environment not the crying time environment

[ornate ferry]

[real siren]

@winged oracle In a game like Halo yes you would want a high enough ttk that you could turn around and fight an enemy that had already engaged you minus your slight disadvantage of already being damaged. But Battlefield has never been like that and the ttk is just too high for some weapons compared to others.

It is very annoying to hit someone four times with a lmg and then have him whip around and spray you down faster than you can get your last shots off.

[solid hinge]

aren't slrs in this game bit like pdws

most of them are underpowered in real life

why would they beat other weapons

smg or lmgs

[winged oracle]

In theory, an SLR should beat SMG and LMG at a distance

[solid hinge]

medic is overall more like support character

[winged oracle]

But bipods, a certain thing called Hellriegel Defensive, and grenade spam work against the SLR's favor

[solid hinge]

imagine mercy mains complaining they cannot outplay widowmakers or reapers

[quaint gyro]

Medic class has been and is always supposed to be viable with the troops...because they're fighting right alongside the frontline guys.

This game isn't built at all like Overwatch. Though the new Overwatch changes enable Mercy to 1v1 attack classes..

Going to test the CTE changes. Will give impressions after.

[solid hinge]

Do 'global messages' show the same in both the CTE and retail?

Just thought it was weird people were banned from the CTE quite frequently 😄

they're different server

Huh, so people are being banned from the CTE...

Thanks @winged oracle for letting me know how awesome AA sights can be, totally overlooked them until this point

[unreal oracle]

I am in the new video of Westie

[south flicker]

Internet famous

[unreal oracle]

Promoting https://russkicheats.rus

[solid hinge]

Hahah 😄

What counts as a 'revolver' for the revolver-focused medal, anyway? Is it literal or any sidearm goes?

[unreal oracle]

Gasser, No.3

Auto-Revolver

[shut walrus]

Ya know, revolvers

[solid hinge]

Makes sense - could swear I got a kill tracked with a pistol but must have seen it wrong

[winged oracle]

There are some guns where the AA sight can be overlooked

Madsen AA sight isn't very good

[solid hinge]

better than ir

[solid hinge]

I for one hope they implement the changes :>

[grand ingot]

fairfight messages you see in CTE are for the regular game

and regarding shotgun changes. I won't say anything about the change to the # of pellets but the changes to how the spread works is a good thing because it keeps the spread more consistent while still retaining some randomness. There was just to much randomness involved with the previous way spread worked so you could really lucky by having all pellets be within a small area or you could be really unlucky by having none of the pellets be towards the center.

[solid hinge]

Ah, that does make more sense (@both)

[quaint gyro]

Where can I offer feedback on the CTE

[fallow mountain]

reddit.com/r/battlefield_live @quaint gyro

[quaint gyro]

Thank you.

[solid hinge]

The music score for Fort Vaux/Nivelle Nights sound like a blend of Batman Begins and Titan Quest

Beautiful

[unborn iris]

The hellriegel defensive is going to be such a dick SMG to use lol

[jolly quartz]

It already is

Flat broken on console and not in the broken it doesn't work like the shotguns ATM

Broken op

Think it was the assignment for it had been out a week and I was already seeing 10+ service stars on them

[hidden elk]

Really? I thought nearly nobody preferred it to factory hellriegel. Everyone says the recoil is too bouncy

[unborn iris]

I got used to it

The minimum damage is kind of weird though

Bipod, large magazine... 13 damage at long range

[jolly quartz]

Who needs recoil when you have 120 round magazine?

Just run around hipfiring

It's disgusting

[winged oracle]

If you have the Hellriegel Defensive there's almost no reason to ever play Support

it's better than any LMG in the game

[unborn iris]

nah

I prefer to be able to do damage at long range

[solid hinge]

Also, limpets

[unborn iris]

^^^^^^^^^^^^^

[solid hinge]

So much fun

[unborn iris]

Runs onto a flag
Drops a limpet
Dies
MULTI KILL
Sees 5 names appear on my screen
Worth it

[solid hinge]

That literally happened to me a couple hours ago

[jolly quartz]

I'm excited for this limpet charge charge spec

Limpet is the best

It doesn't care about your ping or others. It will work 100%

Suez tdm is flat after I run limpet on it hehe

[unborn iris]

BAR or MG 15 for Support or bust tbh

[solid hinge]

Limpets to finish off large-crew tanks is so satisfying

[jolly quartz]

laughs in m1909 Benet Mercie

[solid hinge]

Lewis!

...there are dozens of us!

[unborn iris]

Lewis is basically MG 15 Lite

😉

[solid hinge]

May be, but still somehow I have an easier time getting kills with the Lewis 😄

[unborn iris]

Yea, the Lewis in general has minimal recoil, but the MG 15 has a higher minimum damage, range (cough 870m/s cough), RoF (well, 20RPM counts... right?) and a larger magazine size

Each to their own

[winged oracle]

The Benet-Mercie's problem for me is the fire rate is too slow and the recoil is pretty bad

[unborn iris]

what

oh

Xbox

It's recoil is one of the best

[winged oracle]

maybe the slow firing rate makes it more noticeable

[unborn iris]

MG 14/17 though

I swear to god that thing will either be broken, easy to use, or utterly unusuable.

[solid hinge]

Got a feeling I'll use the Perino extensively once the DLC hits

[winged oracle]

I haven't gotten to see much of the DLC weapons this time around

[jolly quartz]

It's already broken

Now it's buffed and extra broken

[unborn iris]

Can we all take a minute to appreciate Infantry Rifles?

[jolly quartz]

We can try

[unborn iris]

Without the scope

[jolly quartz]

I love them

[unborn iris]

I find them easier (by far) to use then with the Sniper Scopes

[jolly quartz]

I have the Gewehr 98 marksman, Lebel sniper and martini sniper left to service star

It's a pain these scoped rifles

The NetCode isn't helping matters

[unborn iris]

I mainly just use the Gewehr 98 Infantry. Very high MV, and damage at longer ranges when shots can be somewhat difficult.

[jolly quartz]

5 headshots for 0 damage with the Gewehr 98 sniper...

Before I started service staring everything and the elites codexs etc the 98 infantry was my top infantry rifle

Only used it when playing as the Germans though

Insanely satisfying

[unborn iris]

I think the main reason why I enjoy using them is the fact that you can rechamber a round without zooming out, and you also have a wider FoV when scoped

Which means it's easier to see enemies out of your periphal vision.

[jolly quartz]

Oh yeah

M.95 took a while to stay ads rather then let go

[unborn iris]

I don't like using the Gewehr M.95 though for some reason

[solid hinge]

Infantry weapons are one of those categories I absolutely suck at using, but when I do hit something it's super satisfying

[jolly quartz]

I didn't like it at first but I quickly warmed to it

[solid hinge]

My aim has always been awful to begin with, tend to do better with the other classes since I can play the objective easier

[unborn iris]

I didn't really want to try it either as even though I was utterly terrible with the Gewehr 98 Sniper, I liked it.

[jolly quartz]

The Lebel is props my favourite

Its sights is so nice

Also after playing Verdun it's reload is insane lol

[unborn iris]

the Russian 1895 is a bit odd to use as the rechambering animation makes me miss my shots tbh

[solid hinge]

(love that about Battlefield though... you don't have to be a great FPS player to do well and have fun, can focus on tactics/strategy instead and still have a good time)

[jolly quartz]

Cavalry main so I'm used to it

Still annoyed you can't change the 1895 at all

No skins, no magnification changes

No radium right

Ripo ;_;

[unborn iris]

Cavalry is fun as you just absorb shots, then 5 seconds later you're at full health and ammo.

[solid hinge]

Pretty much all 'side' classes are really limited like that... too bad

[jolly quartz]

I miss when the 1895 cav was the 1895 infantry

[solid hinge]

Guess at least cavalry get a bit more variety with the lance now

[jolly quartz]

Rip beta cavalry

So good

[unborn iris]

I wouldn't mind if we get the Gewehr M. 95 or the 98 instead

[jolly quartz]

Ehhh most people aren't too impressed with it

I would really really really really really really

Like cavalry to get faction carbines

E.g. British cav gets SMLE carbine without both sweetsspot and lens ladder sight

And you have faction Revolvers which can be used from horseback like the no.3 revolver

All faction kit could be the Pieper carbine pilot/tanker gets because it's actually a cavalry weapon

[sudden light]

yo

[solid hinge]

I'm guessing score/min is based off your total score rather than the actual score during the match?

[unborn iris]

i'm gessing yes

[solid hinge]

Would explain why it doesn't feel like I'm getting 1500/min during games

Though guessing it doesn't include awards

[jolly quartz]

It's a funny thing like 'skill'

I'm maintaining 1300 spm averages playing tdm

Operations is was 2000+

[quaint gyro]

holy crap do the CTE changes suck

Please tell me they're up for further changes

[jolly quartz]

That's it so far

They want feedback

Remains to be seen what will come of it

[quaint gyro]

Guess I'm making a reddit account.

[jolly quartz]

Good luck

[quaint gyro]

If it goes in like this there's no way I'm playing BF1 as much any more.

[solid hinge]

@jolly quartz Yeah, seems like your k/d will be favored if you always play TDM, your score/min favored through operations or other objective-focused modes

Since my k/d and accuracy will always be mediocre I try to play to my strengths and do more of the latter

Not that the stats really matter as long as you have fun 😄

[jolly quartz]

Yeah fun and entertainment are the main points

I just try and best my personal best everytime

[solid hinge]

spm doesn't matter sht anymore because double xp events and squad boosts

hmn dunno if even w/l matters anymore

[viral saffron]

@solid hinge true. + game mode.

[solid hinge]

infantry kdr/spm

maybe

but if this persons top weapons are cheesy ones its kinda like meh

like all stats can be so easily tampered

you would have to review each players stats individually

what game mode, basic stats, weapon usage, playing alone or platoon

I once watched this one streamer who claimed to be one of the best

he had like 2-3 medics constantly following him around and reviving him all the time

medics had like .5 overall kdr and this mlg was doing 5

@viral saffron what's your opinion of this?

I just invented name for these guys: streamerjerkers

w/l doesn't seem like it matters much anyway, since 90% of that is judging your teammates' efforts (in large game modes anyway)

...spm actually is affected by double XP events? That's silly

[winged oracle]

BF1 is the kind of game that is absolutely impossible to win on your own

[hidden elk]

Yup, that's why hardly anyone uses it as a metric

[solid hinge]

You can certainly make a difference now and then, but usually way more of a team effort

1000 spm was 1% long time ago and 1300 spm is around 7% now

One game we had a guy who was killing it with the behemoth mortar and pretty much turned the match around for instance

But doesn't seem to happen too often

[hidden elk]

Quick question, can a server owner disable behemoths?

[winged oracle]

yes

[hidden elk]

Is there a place where I can see an up to date list of options a server owner can use?

[solid hinge]

If you open up any server ingame there's a list of all options

(just selecting it without joining)

[hidden elk]

Ah ok, thanx

[short umbra]

does anyone know a solution for battlefield disconnecting you every 3-5 minutes because it thinks you're offline on origin? (it can't talk to origin servers)

I know it's because of an international link being down and routing being crappy, but I'm playing on local servers with 20ms ping and it disconnects me because it can't talk to origin

(despite the origin program itself being fine, as it uses local servers)

[solid hinge]

So what are y'alls favorite pistols?

[wary mason]

Mars Automatic

[unborn iris]

my dick

[ornate ferry]

C93

@unborn iris your dick is a pistol? A kolibri right

[unborn iris]

fuck you 😦

M1911 or P08

[solid hinge]

P08

[solid hinge]

why the bloody fuck am I getting FPS drops

I have a GTX 970 and I'm running it on low what the fuck

Processor is an I5 4460 and I have 8gb of DDR3-1600

[solid hinge]

That's why

You have an i5 cpu and the game doesn't like those. I have the same specs as you (slightly better i5-4590 cpu) and I can't run this game on anything but all low without stutter and fps drops

[unborn iris]

Really?

I have an i5 6500 and can run it on Utra no problems (100% resolution scaling)

[solid hinge]

So if I got a current gen I7 my issues would be fixed?

I'm always at 100% CPU when I'm playing

[ashen tusk]

came here to ask the same thing, does anyone have any solution to 100% CPU usage with an i5 6500?

[solid hinge]

or any i5, i get the same with my 4460

[ashen tusk]

all low, all ultra, same thing, 60fps most of the time but get periods of FPS drop with 100% cpu usage

currently it's pretty much unplayable, should i just not play the game?

where should i ask for support about this?

[jolly quartz]

Kolibri is best pistol

No.3 revolver comes second

Obrez third

[solid hinge]

That's the problem with basically all i5 users

MUST play on low to mitigate the 100% cpu usage but even on low it still happens from time to time

On ultra I'll get about 70fps during the good times, drops to 20-40 during a cpu spike

At least on low I can enjoy 100fps before it shits to around 50 lol

[grand ingot]

Depends on the map, mode, number of players. More players means more CPU usage. I54590 doesn't even meet the min spec

[solid hinge]

I play frontlines almost exclusively now and it doesn't happen there that much

Conquest is unplayable on maps like empire's edge or lupkow pass though

[ashen tusk]

unplayable for everyone?

[solid hinge]

If it starts raining in game and you have an i5, good luck

[ashen tusk]

so lame, i didn't expect this for some reason

glad I didn't buy the full game lol

[wary mason]

I suggest Reading these before buying like

Any game
https://www.battlefield.com/games/battlefield-1/tech

[solid hinge]

I'm getting an i7 7700 pretty soon

[ashen tusk]

Yeah I just didn't expect it since my cpu is easily sufficient for any other game I've played

[solid hinge]

I hope that's good enough :>

[wary mason]

More than enough

i7 7700 is so good

[ashen tusk]

I was looking at that but I saw someone upgrade to that from an i5 and they didn't see any difference

[solid hinge]

$281 on amazon right now. Seems decent

[ashen tusk]

it's $345 here

converted from £ to $

[solid hinge]

Oh boy, that sucks

[ashen tusk]

that's reduced tho

it was like $380

CPUs are very expensive here in the UK 😦

[solid hinge]

How bad is the gpu market right now there?

[ashen tusk]

GTX 1060 is about the same, like $350

GTX 1080 Ti is about $1000

[solid hinge]

oof

[ashen tusk]

is that worse than there?

[solid hinge]

Yea, I think a 1060 runs about $200 here

[ashen tusk]

wow that is very cheap

or is that the 3GB one?

I meant the 6GB one

oh yeah looks like the nvidia MSRP are the same in $ and £ regardless of the exchange rate

[solid hinge]

Cheapest 6gb is $270

[jolly quartz]

Previously on tech talk oh wait that channel doesn't exist anymere

[ashen tusk]

At least Origin Access gives me the Sims for a month? I also saw Dunkirk yesterday and was very disappointed, basically everything is disappointing me lol

I'm disappointingly poor and can't buy an i7

Tbf I'd buy one but I just wanted to try BF1 for a couple of weeks before I start my PhD, so no point investing

[onyx blade]

Did the last or before last BF1 update made it that some, if not all, maps in some, if not all, game modes spawn one of many chosen elite classes' kits randomly rather than just a designated one per map/game mode combination?

[solid hinge]

@onyx blade I recommend posting this to two other chatrooms too

[onyx blade]

I did in here and in #general, where else should it be?

[solid hinge]

maybe all of them

[onyx blade]

:L

Used to spawn Sentry kit with the AA guns instead of the Flamethrower on Monte Grappa Domination

[solid hinge]

wait what

[onyx blade]

What do you not understand?

[solid hinge]

AA sentry?

[onyx blade]

Sentry has two variants, one of which holds a pair of AA guns which is called "Villar Perosa": http://battlefield.wikia.com/wiki/Villar_Perosa

[solid hinge]

why didn't you just say vp or Villar perosa and not be elitist

[onyx blade]

Because I can and I have preferences?

[solid hinge]

XD

[hidden elk]

The villar perosa is literally 2 automaticos in the same body

[shut walrus]

[hidden elk]

Autism^2

[solid hinge]

@hidden elk no it is an Anti-Air gun according to collision

you shoot bombers ingame down with it

Well it can be an AA gun and 2 automaticos in the same body 😄

tbh I've never seen any VP users even leave bunker nor shoot planes

Ha, nope

(not that they'd ever want to, historical uses aside AA is hardly the best use for it ingame)

[shut walrus]

It wasn't that good for AA in real life either, hence why it was phased out and given to the infantry.

[hidden elk]

@solid hinge Never said the villar perosa wasn't an AA gun, but it was mounted on the backs of planes, not on the ground. The villar perosa is literally two automaticos in the same body. That's how the automatico was made, they took the villar perosa off of planes, gave each gun it's own body, and you have the automatico.

[solid hinge]

I think Khan was somewhat sarcastic 😄

dude I wasn't serious

^^

[hidden elk]

ok

[shut walrus]

Someone's on the defensive

[hidden elk]

Hellriegel Defensive...?

Eyyyy?

Kill me

[solid hinge]

Does air-to-air even count as AA anyway?

[shut walrus]

🗡

[hidden elk]

DUnno

[solid hinge]

(historically, just curious)

interceptor

[hidden elk]

Stick a QF-1 AA gun on a plane, fug

[shut walrus]

Well AA stand for Anti-Air so it counts. Surface-To-Air is another thing tho

[hidden elk]

They need those on the back of bombers, not a dinky little mg 14

[solid hinge]

@hidden elk That's actually a cool thing about how the automatico was made, never knew

[hidden elk]

The villar perosa was too much autism for 1 person, they had to split it between 2 people

[shut walrus]

Ola, they started putting heavier MGs on the planes because pistol calibers were under powered 😁

[hidden elk]

TIL

I'm still sticking with the too much autism for 1 person theory

[solid hinge]

Kind of funny how mobile/strong BF1 thinks people are, with all the aircraft MGs used by infantry 😄

[shut walrus]

That's why the infantry got the Villar-Perosa, the airforce didn't need any longer once they got MGs on the planes.

[hidden elk]

Lol supports lugging around a mothertrucking Lewis Gun

[solid hinge]

Or like, any LMG... sure people used them but didn't exactly run around with them the way you can do

Yeah exactly 😄

[shut walrus]

Yeah WW1 MGs were heavy as hell, but they gotta get them into the game somehow, and if you had decreased mobility as support no one would play it.

[solid hinge]

Not that it matters, game's fun, but kind of funny

Yeah

[hidden elk]

I've only seen people actually shoot the Madsen not bipoded

Btw, madsen is a hidden gem

[shut walrus]

Ian from FW shoulder fired a air-cooled MG08/15 in a video.

[hidden elk]

There's a reason it's been in used for over 100 years irl

[solid hinge]

Funny thing about the big heavy MGs is they don't actually look that oversized or heavy in first person in BF - only when you see pictures of them from some distance you go "Woah, how am I carrying that?"

[hidden elk]

Ian? You mean Gun Jesus?

[shut walrus]

Yup

spef

[solid hinge]

didn't perino weight like 17kg?

[shut walrus]

27kg I think

[hidden elk]

I personally think they should give trench variants of guns a sling, it'd make sense for making hipfire more accurate

[shut walrus]

But infantry did carry it, just not in the way you do in BF1

[solid hinge]

15kg

...yeah, nobody would ever play Support if that was realistic

[hidden elk]

Now everyone will play support if CTE buffs go through

[solid hinge]

Nobody will play medic, for sure

I just played console cte and most of people are already playing support

with mg14

[hidden elk]

Or play medic excusively for the fedorov avtomat

[shut walrus]

It's funny how they used foregrips for both the Storm and Trench variants. They could have done something else you'd think to differentiate them.

[solid hinge]

it wouldn't be federov without foregrip

[shut walrus]

The new DLC adds some power creep to the game, hopefully it will all go well.

[hidden elk]

If you shoot the Huot, your soldier supports the huot by holding the magazine, even though there is a perfectly fine foregrip like 3 inches from his left han

hand

[shut walrus]

New animation to hold the grip takes time

DICE is a small indie developer

[solid hinge]

Hey, even AAA devs have to prioritize 😄

if you look perino 3rd model, he's holding gun from.. well

[hidden elk]

Doesn't the perino just outclass the huot in every way anyway?

[shut walrus]

True, I also think a lot of staff is on SWBF2 atm which takes priority.

Huot got better accuracy

since it's closed-bolt

[hidden elk]

Does open bolt/closed bolt actually affect accuracy?

[shut walrus]

yes, open-bolt means the bolt have to travel after you pull the trigger which shakes the gun slightly.

[hidden elk]

Makes sense

[solid hinge]

isn't huot basically slr?

[hidden elk]

Huot is an automatic conversion of the canadian Ross Rifle

[shut walrus]

Both the Madsen and Huot has some of the best accuracy compared to the other MGs, and they're both closed-bolt.

[hidden elk]

Madsen is fkin weird, it's like an automatic martini henry

Falling block action and all that

[shut walrus]

haha, it's a good gun, just wish the sights were on the left instead of the right.

[hidden elk]

And the magazine doesn't take up like, half the screen

[modest solstice]

Hey

[solid hinge]

There is certainly something to be said for guns that don't block the whole field of view while aiming down sights

[modest solstice]

Whats up

[hidden elk]

Hullo

nm

gtg

[shut walrus]

Be glad it doesn't have the 40 round mag

sup Aziz

cya Ola

I gtg too, see you all tomorrow, well and fine I hope!

[tight ice]

hello

[winged oracle]

Huot is a conversion of the Ross Rifle, which was a straight-pull rifle like the M95 but also had insane range and accuracy, which would make the actual rifle hard to balance in BF1 I think

The Ross Rifle's biggest problem was reliability

If it was reliable, it would have been the perfect rifle

[hidden elk]

Ross rifle was a lot like the gewehr m.95. Straight pull, en-bloc clip with 5 rounds.

[maiden pewter]

what do u guys theenk of incursions

also

didnt they buff all the weapons or soemthing?

to like make playing the objective easier

cause if so ima rush B bettererererer

[hidden elk]

They basically buffed LMGs a lot, SMGs a little, SLRs just a tiny bit, and snipers not at all. Shotgun's pellets are treated differently, I think it's a buff for some and nerf for others

[hidden elk]

Also I think that a lot of medics are going to use the federov avtomat, pretty much the only good cqc gun they're going to get

[wary mason]

Incursion has gotten a lot of positive feedback

As far as i know

Cant wait to try it out myself

[manic bridge]

BF on weekends ingame has to be the shittiest community since Dota2

[wary mason]

Just like any other game that has voice/text chat

[manic bridge]

haven't seen it being this bad since Dota2

[wary mason]

There's always that one guy who takes the games too serious

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[manic bridge]

"one guy" how about 30% of the server lol

[wary mason]

Lul

[manic bridge]

not the first time it happened either, but oh well

pls give option to mute people

[wary mason]

Yeah, other games have less people / lobby

So more likely to meet toxic players in high populated servers

[manic bridge]

true, and especially at the weekends i've noticed

[wary mason]

Yeah .-. Weekends used to awful here too

When battlefield was launched

[manic bridge]

they can't be toxic at their school/workplace, so they plague the internet instead

lol,i bet

[wary mason]

Exactly

[manic bridge]

but is there really no way to mute people?

especially text chat

[wary mason]

Not yet, but you can double tap the H key to hide the chat

[manic bridge]

true, but i still wanna be able to see team/squad chat 😦

[wary mason]

Hmm yeah

[manic bridge]

not sure if its because of the amount of players, but its weird BF doesnt have that option

[wary mason]

You could send a suggestion to r/battlefield_live

[manic bridge]

true

[wary mason]

Bf chat has just been like that since bfbc2

[manic bridge]

and also auto balance teams, as i've mentioned before.. but someone (you?) said it could be hard due to squads, that's true, but jus take the randoms not in a premade squad ^^

[wary mason]

Afaik

Hmm, i dont like the auto balance tbh.

But, yeah I have nothing to say for that

[manic bridge]

makes it more fair for the team down by 600 tickets

but then again, it takes people from the winning team and fucks over their chance to win, maybe

😛

[wary mason]

Yeah, its just that if you're the one getting balanced to the enemy just because enemy couldnt take the loss

Might be a mood killer for some

[manic bridge]

true

also considering how casual BF is, i guess it doesnt matter

[wary mason]

That too

That's why i want incursion to be good

There's already a discord for that, which we will be announcing when the thing goes live

Oooor you can search the web for the invite link, there should be one somewhere in the webs

[trail flame]

Probably the subreddit

[wary mason]

Probably

[violet finch]

Hi

[solid hinge]

Is it just me or is the automatico fucking annoying?

[violet finch]

I dont k ow should you rather be shot at by 7 sniper or face someone with an automatico?

[solid hinge]

If you aren't shit, you wouldn't be getting shot by snipers. I know this because I am a Scout main.

[indigo kindle]

Which one is better Russian 1895 sniper or SML MKlll marksman?

for distance

[violet finch]

Honstly the best sniper in my opinion is the 98 sniper

[modern yacht]

thats the probl;'

problem with the question is its opinion based lol

[runic seal]

Hello, People not playing ?

[indigo kindle]

My favorite sniper is martini henry but it aint as good as before

[violet finch]

True

But my absolute favorite weapon would be the Lewis gun low weight or the mondrogon storm.

[modern yacht]

bruh the BAR telescopic is amazing

one of my fav weapons

[solid hinge]

@violet finch Just curious, what makes you prefer the Lewis low weight to the suppressive?

[violet finch]

Well I like the low weight for it's sights rate of fire and the Bullitt damage but I dont like using the suppresive cause its scope is just a snipers target.

[solid hinge]

Oh, that's a good point, never really thought about that

Lewis Suppressive is generally my favorite weapon but that makes sense

Suppressives are much more useful to shoot down airplanes.

[violet finch]

Yeah but when it comes to the mg15 suppressive that's a different story

[solid hinge]

Currently using the Madsen Low Weight to get the elite codex, surprisingly good at most distances

What would you all say is the best weapon for AA currently?

[violet finch]

Lewis gun has the most damage and rate of fire and clip out off so the LMG

[indigo kindle]

im starting to love the support class because the bar and mg15

[solid hinge]

BAR's great.

Huge magazines, instant crouched accuracy, limpets

Support class is the best 😄

My only gripe is the capacity.

Support is for supporting infantry, hence the name.

But!

20 rounds will do you no good in a situation like a bumrush.

You can try the Mercie, but frankly that's suicide.

Or just try for headshots and luck!

PFF

Yeah I guess so.

When something is CQC like Scar or Ballroom, I use the Maddy.

Reliable old girl that's kept me alive many a game.

Certainly seems like one of the most versatile support weapons

Yee.

What

is your guys gpu?

[hidden elk]

Integrated AMD

[solid hinge]

GTX 970, hits 60 at 1080p at around high settings

Me its kinda but rx 460 4gb

kinda sad*'

[hidden elk]

I have a shitty laptop

[solid hinge]

"Those that have played the CTE will note the number of Support players out there since the patch. There are some aggressive players, but mostly, everyone and their dog is prone with a goddamn Parabellum everywhere"

I hope they don't nerf it before relase

or it would just feel like aborted fetus

[hidden elk]

I don't really like the parabellum, I think I'll save it for close range maps. Even then with the chauchat's kill range getting buffed I'll use the chauchat anyway

[weak igloo]

this is prolyl a dumb question

but how does bf1 run on a i5 cpu

specifically a 6600k

[jolly quartz]

Finally found the art of battlefield

[solid hinge]

o

[indigo kindle]

I'm excited for the new weapons coming out in few days anyone as well?

[hidden elk]

Looking forward to fedorov avtomat greatly, smg 08 was a fun gun to use as well. I don't know what's it's like since the Big Weapon Patch That Will Save Battlefield (allegedly) but I bet it's even more fun. Haven't tried perino yet, looking forward to it though. Can't give a shit for anything scout gets.

[jolly quartz]

It'll be interest to see what was changed regarding assignment to unlock said weapons

I disappointed that they removed the bolt action mode on the general Liu rifle

[hidden elk]

It'd be a straight downgrade

tbh famalam

[weak igloo]

bf1 dlc isnt free is it

[hidden elk]

Nope

Gotta own premium or buy it individually. If you plan on getting all 4 dlc, premium is a much better deal

[indigo kindle]

premium also gives you extre nice perks like early access and free loot every month.

[weak igloo]

i see Revolution I dont see premium edition in the Origin store

[indigo kindle]

i think exp boost as well

[hidden elk]

Revolution inclused premium

includes*

[weak igloo]

so Revolution is the premum edition lol

[hidden elk]

Yeah, Revolution edition is fairly new. It includes premium and some other stuff I think

Which totally rips off people who bought premium version because it means premium version purchasers basically paid an extra $50 for 1 dlc early

And a lot of people are not happy about it

[indigo kindle]

wait so the revolution edition is just package with the 2 latest dlc and prem with extra loot?

[hidden elk]

Revolution Edition is Base game+premium+some other goodies I might not be aware of

It's great for people who don't own bf1 yet, but people who bought premium are completely ripped off.

premium before revolution edition came out**

[indigo kindle]

wtf

[hidden elk]

People who bought premium before the revolution edition came out essentially paid 50 dollars for 1 dlc early. I'd be 100% fine with revolution edition came out when the release schedule has run it's course, but they are selling revolution edition before 2nd dlc is even out

[indigo kindle]

yeah i don't understand what was there thinking proccess

[hidden elk]

Their thinking process was that premium sales weren't great, and dlc maps were dying. So they lowered the price and screwed over premium owners in hope that the lower price will save dlc maps

[indigo kindle]

RIP

[hidden elk]

A good way to make up for this is to give people who owned premium beforehand a feature that doesn't split the community, then everyone else is a small fee. Like soldier customization or dlc story missions

[rustic leaf]

Hell0

[solid hinge]

Or give the people who bought base game + premium a free deluxe edition upgrade

:>

That'd be neat

[hidden elk]

I already got deluxe ;_;

[hushed arch]

I have the base game and I'm thinking of getting the maps as well, should in just get revolution or get premium?

[solid hinge]

Premium is cheaper unless you really want the deluxe skins too for $10 more

[hushed arch]

I'll probably get premium then, I'm not gonna fork more money just for skins

[waxen ivy]

where do I ask about squadding up with people for bf4

[solid hinge]

Probably the lfg chats

[patent canyon]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/158369884340879360/354108125202350090/unknown.png Fuckin Why?!

The 1915 is already op as shit

[quaint gyro]

Because some people want to see the world burn.

Youtubers apparently.

[patent canyon]

1915 is the easiest gun in the game and is now even easier.

With this gun, you can just shoot others without a care in the world

[quaint gyro]

after having played around for a few hours on the CTE I gotta say I hate the TTK changes

Even disregarding the fact it screws over medics/ptfo scouts it's just

not fun

There's no time to react to anything any more.

[patent canyon]

its the AS VAL again to fuck all people

[quaint gyro]

Give em a heads up on reddit if you wanna provide feedback

But I'd play around on the CTE if you can first

just so you can say you did

[patent canyon]

How can they not know this

?

Everyone and their momma is using the 1915

[quaint gyro]

tbh I saw more assaults using the automatico more than anything else

on conquest, frontlines, operations

Ever since the meta was established I have never not seen an automatico

[patent canyon]

My bud of mine used the 1915 and was able to kill dudes at long range and went 74-16. At the end he said the gun was joke

I won't even unlock it due to it overpower bull

[quaint gyro]

Regardless it does beg the question lol

Plenty of threads on those two guns specifically before these changes came along

[patent canyon]

I swear dice has a hard on for assault class and planes

[hidden elk]

All I want is for my gunfu madsen to be good

[patent canyon]

Madsen has a increase from 23 to 26.5 max / 17.5 to 21 min

[hidden elk]

Yuss

[patent canyon]

Here's the link https://www.reddit.com/r/battlefield_live/comments/6xftc8/september_weapon_balance_update/

[hidden elk]

Madsen has always been better than the bar, people just didn't know about it

[patent canyon]

they increased the bar too

[quaint gyro]

I think they just hated the magazine covering half the screen lol

[hidden elk]

I know, but not as much as madsen

Madsen is to like 28 dmg now, bar is at 26.5

Madsen shall rule the battlefield just like its IRL counterpart

The 100 year gun shall return

[patent canyon]

good because I liked that gun

I remember using it in metal of honor

[hidden elk]

Which one? I only ever played vanguard on PS2

[patent canyon]

wait.. was it call of duty?

[hidden elk]

I dunno lmao

According to my google-fu it's only appeared in BF1, Verdun, Karma Online (wtf is this game), Battlefield: 1918, and Battle of Empires: 1914-1918.

[solid hinge]

Is it the BAR Storm or the BAR Trench that's the good one?

[hazy cloud]

storm

[solid hinge]

fuck, that means i have to get to rank 3 support

how do i git gud

is there like, videos or something I can watch to help me stop being shit?

[hazy cloud]

just point and shoot, play the objectives

[solid hinge]

Is there a guide on target leading/bullet drop or is that a thing I have to figure out myself?

All guns have a different feel to it due to different muzzle velocity

I use the G98 as Scout

Then you won't need to compensate as much as other rifles

I've seen that

That's actually the reason I use it

I'm shit, so I use the G98

You can actually look up the stats on symthic and see the differences

Hm

And compare sweet spots, etc

Yep

Does the 1903 have a decent bullet velocity>

As in anywhere near the G98's

Fastest for a scout actually I think.

Hm

Also the farthest sweet spot

Just look up the stats, compare, and pick what you think is best for your style

I do tend to do really long range sniping

I'm that fucker

Deffo consider the m1903 then

Yep

When does the Sniper variant get unlocked?

Rank 3?

No idea haha, it's been a looong time. But probably rank 3

Ah

Since it's at the bottom of the selection that seems right

Yeah

[jolly quartz]

@hidden elk you are props thinking of the Bren or type 88

[solid hinge]

A miraculous event has just happened to me

Not only was I not shit in that game

I was fucking TOP OF THE SCOREBOARD

I got 9 ribbons of resupply

Is this the Battlefield equivalent of an autist from /r9k/ turning into a Chad

[unborn iris]

M1093 has a MV of 820m/s. The Gewehr 98 has the fastest MV in game at 880m/s, followed by the MG 15 n.A.'s at 870m/s.

[solid hinge]

Ah

BAR Storm is still the best LMG tho

[unborn iris]

Depends on what you want to do

If you're doing pseudo-assault gameplay then yea

[solid hinge]

It's pretty much an assault rifle lets be real

[unborn iris]

An Assault Rifle has a 5.56mm round doesn't it?

[solid hinge]

5.56, 7.62x39, 7.92x33 Kurz, yeah, usually

I'm commenting on how it behaves similarly to an assault rifle in the game not it's actual designation and caliber

[unborn iris]

yea

[solid hinge]

Also I got five melee kills

You know the walkways on top of the castle on Ballroom?

Turns out, snipers hide there

Turns out, snipers are totally fucking oblivious to assholes with knives sneaking around stabbing them

[unborn iris]

Nice

[solid hinge]

today on cte reddit: "pls give cavalry more health to compensate faster ttk"

6d ago: "check out my mlg clip 42:2 as cavalry"

why everything has to be biased

[wary mason]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[solid hinge]

Game is broken kappa

it really is

u need an i7 to play this game because of the game engine's bug that has been around since early 2017 -_-

[wary mason]

i5

[solid hinge]

can cavalry health be dropped

having a horse eat an entire mag from a BAR is dumb

bar is so OP

imagine extended mags + bar

yes pls

rip bf1

nobody would be using dlc weapons lmao

its like having an M16 in WW1

ikr

I just got it

Despite being shit at BF1 I was at the top of the scoreboard

got what?

the bar

yeah

lol same here

i got it like 30 minutes ago

Not as bad as the Automatico though

i prefer the bar high damage and low recoil

and rpm is just perfect for me

Yeah

I've come to love support because of the BAR

[solid hinge]

Maddy > Other LMGs

[winged oracle]

I tried out the BAR, it's definitely different from the other LMGs and takes some time to get used to if you're used to the low fire rate-big mag guns like the Lewis and MG15

[solid hinge]

Ye.

The MG-14/17 now might outdo the BAR js

Faster rpm

Bigger capacity than the 15??

[hidden elk]

Bar is better over range

Much much more stable

[unreal oracle]

scoped BAR is the best LMG for me

specially tap-firing on distance

or spray while prone

[shut walrus]

Magdump or gtfo

[sick summit]

Does the telescopic bar still have better dmg than the storm and trench

Or was that a while ago

[shut walrus]

No it has the same, same bullet same damage

[sick summit]

Ok

[toxic vine]

hello people
anyone up for some battlefield 3

[shut walrus]

that's a game I haven't heard in a long time...

[hidden elk]

Battlefield 3 is free for xbox gold members sometime at the end of this month

[shut walrus]

Cool, mods should sticky that comment so xbox users can see it

[wary mason]

For xbox one I assume?

oh googled around

it's free for only 14days

this month

between 16th-30th september

[hidden elk]

Well free between 16th and 30th, afterwards you can't claim it for free anymore

And I think it's for 360 and xbox one, since it's a backwards compatible title

[solid hinge]

can't wait to play metro 24 players

Yo

The Light Tank is pretty friggin' good

[hidden elk]

So they say

Landship with solo tanker is the best tank

[solid hinge]

I mean yeah... Except if you are fighting a Bomber :3

Because Bomber > Airship aswell

[real siren]

Getting 3 headshots in one life is difficult

[fallow mountain]

is it?

just become sniper or something

[solid hinge]

Also remember "one life" still counts if you get revived

Makes all those assignments a lot easier

I have been sniping since before you starting jerking off

3 headshots in one life requires a good team to not let people behind you

[fallow mountain]

you underestimate the power of my jerking

[solid hinge]

I never have a good team that prevents enemies from getting behind me

Thus

Impossible

[wary mason]

Getting 3 headshots in one life isn't really hard imo

but that just my point of view

[fallow mountain]

Actually depends, are you on console?

I have a hard time getting headshots using a controller

[solid hinge]

I am no peasant

I just have the worst luck possible

Because every single match is filled with dummies

[wary mason]

Pro at being bad

[fallow mountain]

[solid hinge]

I talking about dudes running straight into a room full of enemies with a pistol, Tank Hunters who try to bash their heads against a tank, and people who stand in one place for 5 minutes, shooting anything that moves around the corner

Every single match

And yet all the level 14's on the opposite team have inhuman aim and catlike reflexes

Fml

If I could find a squad that can actually support you

Aka not fly planes into other planes on purpose

[wary mason]

Tomorrow might be a busy day

[solid hinge]

Or take a heavy tank and ditch everyone else

[wary mason]

New update

[solid hinge]

[wary mason]

Tomorrow

Name of the Tsar update
