I'm upset that most weapons are from BF1, but at least the game play feels a heck of a lot better in BFV
M97
Get an assault mate, track down a vehicle, both use rocket guns and move after every shot whilst keeping out of line of sight
With anti-tank items
If possible get another mate with an ammo crate
What's the task say exactly?
btw someone mentioned me and I couldn't find the mention
Also fun fact; mortars count as vehicles 
Man this week is horrible
Losing almost evety game
Even winning games I join suddenly get turned over too often
Lost every game in nivelle this week
Im contesting one point only for enemies to just cap everything else. Seems like there is little you can do when that happens
I feel that, a huge chunk of games I've been in lately have just been a curbstomp for one side or the other
Curbstomps are expected but this week its just so stacked suddenly against me
Like close games becoming routes the last min for things you have little control over
I did once too
But its not because im good
Now I lose every game where the only thing I can do to win is to kill everyone by myself
Get a full squad and play objective
We all play objectives. The issue is people die if the team is worse
Easy win 75% 100% of the time
I can back cap only for that to somehow end up with enemy then capping our other point immidiately
Seems like I have to get into a tank to win
Very satisfying to outplay 12+ people
But still its hampered by bad design
I think the spawn time and squad is the biggest issue
Bf is just plagued by the same thing it makes the game interesting. Size
You cant stop your team from zerging nice caps and enemies from rushing your flank caps
I feel like bfvs so called "quietness" and slow spawn time made it more bearable to engage thoughtfully
At least from my limited experience
Even D cap in Rotterdam which is the most popular cap was not too chaotic
I only had gripes with A due to the stairwell camping making it really hard to dislodge contesting caps
No thats the ruined square on german side
Nah it was with ruined buildings
Between B and D on Rotterdam and all the Fortifications you could put around those points, rushing was almost always a bad idea
I thought C was gonna be a clusterfuck but it was surprisngly easy to attack
Its amazing how unpopular of a point it is
Yeah, it's super open but I only ever saw like 6 people there at a time
I like the fact that they managed to make a center cap rather unpopular
I dislike the current state of grenades
BF4s base maps had a lot of center clusters
i might get bfv after april
Hopefully bfv won't be that bad
because im gonna go to china
No bfv in China?
I enjoyed securing C. That, D, and A were my bread and butter. Wasn't very successful with B or E.
C though, when I heavily fortify the area, it's locked down.
Very off from the rest of the map
But the unpopularity of C makes it kinda interesting
That was the pivot for the entire map. Take C, you can take the other objectives in any direction.
If C was the point of contest. That would be a clusterfucj
I don't think a lot of folks really realized that.
C is fairly isolates still. AE and CD are straight aways
C you have to willfully go into it in comparison
We (the MaD clan members testing the beta) would maintain a stranglehold on C, and just keep running the map in a rotation. Win almost every round.
D is the most popular point based on the heatmap image
Im do hyped I pooped my pants
D I think is popular because of the elevation changes and the ease of navigating the structure.
It's not too compact to be a grind, but it's not too open to be a sniper mess either.
I don't think a whole lot of people realized you could just blow up the Sandbags either, so I spent most of my Panzerfaust ammo blowing up Fortifications, just to avoid getting ambushed
@wild oxide Haha, I hear ya
Man I actually kinda liked Rotterdam. Its amazinf considering i think most bf maps have big garbage flaws
But I am worries about flares
Never tried it never really saw it
Feels like it would make places like c hard to contest or defend
I think Rotterdam is a brilliant map. Wish it was slightly bigger (at least in terms of avenues to take to get to objectives or more of it was interactive). Outside of that, they did a hell of a job on it.
Since it was so easy to plop em in bf1 to spot lone squatters in cap
I would love to play Rotterdam in a night mode!
Fire off flares into the air to illuminate the enemy, etc.
That'd be sick.
That'd be cool, have the street lights have a little bit of illumination too
i want
Yes!
a new gamemode
Would like a night city map yeah
because the new gamemodes added are pretty good
The AA guns were practically useless in that mode tbh
Plop down sandbags and shoot ppl
Parachutes make it easy to know where ppl are coming from
Airborne was pretty tough because of the imbalance to the map. I think it's one of those things that if you're going to get such a map advantage to the defender, then the teams should be uneven to overwhelm that imbalance.
Feels like the map would do better if the germans didnt have such a easy high ground with buildable defenses
Or, drop in a bunch of AI with the players so that the defenders aren't sure who to concentrate on.
Or maybe just ditch the satchel system
Its frustrating to see 20 ppl squatting down without a satchel
And a dumbass taking the satchel doing dumbass things
Airborne would work better in a smaller player count map
have AI storm the area with you
@wild oxide True.
Dunno about the breakthrough section of Narvik
Dont like the bridge thing
City section is kinda fun
But map feels claustrophoic and narrow
maybe thats what they are going for
Backcapping requires some serious stealth action on Narvik
i didnt play enough games to really get to know every map
It just feels a bit uninspired as a map
im still dissapointed about that tbh
The bridge section is a sniping bait and the town section is kinda cluttered up
Yeah, Narvik's C was a nightmare for me
The underside of the bridge is kinda fun
Luckily you could fortify the bridge for the most part, but that created it's own problems, with people just camping behind every corner

This right here will be the meta gun for bfv for a few weeks, the damage is the same as the bren gun and has a higher firerate though 
Fuck BF1 is so bad
how so?
Artillery Trucks, Ilya Muromets, SMG08, Automatico, Shotguns, Sentries
Plus the random bullet deviation mechanic which just makes everything more frustrating
I find the automatico less of an issue now tbh
It's still cheap af
well not as much
But it is still
As normally you can bait peeps into spraying their load before they can kill you. The SMG 08 on the other hand...
Similar to the Annihilatior
How about the RSC?
Atleast the RSC you need skill for it
Actually aim it instead of hipfiring in your general direction
Most of the guns in BF1 you don't even need to ADS
shotguns
ahaha
more or so the rifles that medic has are op
tbh
they are so disgustingly strong is crazy
How so?
WOW
They fit nicely as overall good
LMFAO ARE WE PLAYING THE SAME GAME?!?
3 shot kill with a 5 bullet mag
Which you need to aim, and usually RDB fucks you over
Extended? Only for a close distance. The experimental sniper has the same 3 hit kill range
I mean
There's literally a guy in my game CORNER CAMPING WITH TRIPWIRE BOMBS
Like fuck off man
regardless of the distance of that rifle, the automatic can still technically beat it, but coming from say a noobs perspective it is seen as op
It's not the best at anything, but it's an all rounder
With infinite ammo
Tanks are also bullshit yeah, forgot to mention that
Basically its a jack of all trades is what im saying
the rifle meta wasnt nice
tbh
My clan kicks tanks that camp spawn
I'd love to be part of your server then
Same
Because every werver I play in has a rank 150 player with 100 Service Stars on tanks ad going 70:0
Or a pilot doing the same thing
the autoloading can drop players in 3 shots from up to 25 meters, thats pretty op.
Not even joking
We have a guy in AUS who uses the light tank like that
RSC is even more OP than Autoloading
Today is part 3 of a series where I explore the Best in Class. Today sees us looking at the Best Medic Weapons 2018. I'll be going through each class, or in ...
Eh, I still can't get behind the auto extended
The other guns are pretty useless in the medic class,
RSC is too inaccurate at distance and the fed is slow ttk
Yup
Atleast with the RSC it's a skill cannon compared to the assault class
Farquhar hill optical is bae though
RSC has a 2 shit kill
Which is the best class in BF and has unbalanced guns
Yeah but you need to hit those 2 bullets
Is pretty meta
Support is easy as you can prone on a hill with the m1917
Support is pretty much broken at this point since they have weapons that rival assault class as well as long range weapons thay rival snipers
Which I loathe
Support is way broken and OP now
Yeah pretty much
NT to mention they can melt planes wings now
Thank god
Support is outright the most broken class because they can do everything
Stop shitty noob pilots going in crazy killstreaks
I go parabellum so I'm basically assault with the most powerful explosive in the game
I feel that the Burton is a big reason too why it's broken and OP
Burton is just like the Automatico but with laser aim accuracy
It's more like the Annihilatior tbh
Yah
Except accurate at
Still way more accurate
And limpet charge is basically same strength as 2-3 dynamite
Except accurate af
Except you can toss that shit out in no time
BFV looks great
Apart from forced teamplay it does yeah
No more RBD
Such a pity medics lose semi autos 
All that's got me worried is Microtransactions and Attrition
And yeah
RiP Semi autos o8
o7
The MP34 looks fun tho
Microtransactions in battlefield will be cosmetic based.
And regardless you can earn them pretty quickly while playing the game
But some will be locked behind a paywall for sure
Like, Gunskins, atleast in BF1 we could get them without paying a cent
how are you sure they will be locked though?
Want me some factory new, but I'm not giving DICE one penny in microtransactions
Because if they won't be, then that system is useless
we have been told that nothing will be locked behind a paywall in bfv
everything can be legitimately
Why pay if you can't just get it easily?
Because its quicker and simple
paying is just making it so you dont have to grind for it
I don't think people are that stupid
that defeats the purpose of the game
That also defeats the purpose of DICE making money of it after release
Since there's no DLCs unfortunately
They have stated that anything can be earned legitimately
Like I trust DICE
Also, if they do have this Monetization scheme, stuff's gonna be stupidly expensive
One goddamn battlepack in BF1 is 20 reais in my currency, I can get lunch for that ammount of money
the only thing that they will be making so its locked is like limited cosmetics
but they can be earned through grinding the game
some people dont have the time to play 12 hours a day for a skin
and just want an easy option
If a payed game has you grind for a skin for 12 hours, they've done something badly wrong
I can unlock a tank in Warthunder in less than that and it's a free game, also the grind in warthunder is terrible
So many "grinds"
I hate grind
^
I just did a 100 to a guy and he had 1 health left
was he by a medi kit or med pack or was a medic by him
Nop, Support all by himself
also there have been inconsistencies with the counter such as 102 damage reported
for a kill
started two patches ago I think
Yeah I sometimes get a 101 and 102
The lag budd 
I have 20 latency
Morning
Night
You know, In all my time in BF1 I don't think I ever killed a behemoth
I once got about 400 points for resupplying one guy with ammo pouches 
Lol
I think the mechanics in Battlefield Vagina are fun but I hate how the game has political correctness injected in it
It leaves a poor taste in my mouth
Like not calling the nazis NAZIS. No, they're called "German Elite Forces"
I feel that DiCE and EA are catering to people who don't even care about videogames or in best of cases will play very little of BF V before moving on to find something else to bitch about
Of course they are, They're pandering to gaming journalists and the likes of anita sarkeesian
i mean killing a heavy tank full of people is just as sattisfying as killing a behemoth
Correction
These people are like vultures that only go and try tp jump on only the kind of stuff that is popular and will bring them a voice
Once BF V dies down after a few weeks they will move on
Killing a camping Assault truck is more satisfying than killing anything else in this game
i havent had a behemoth in my games for ages
Does anyone still play on 360
?
nope
While people like me who is willing to invest hundreds if not thousands of hours in to that game gets stuck witha heavily politizised and SJW injected game for no reson
Well my friend, you're in the wrong side of history 😉
gassing a sniper filled trench is pretty satisfying too
whats the point to still be playing on one instead of a xbox one
save a dollar a day and you would of had one in basically a year
x360 also just looks cooler
Xbone looks ike a console from the 70's
Lolololololol
the xbox one x looks fine to me
Nah I say Xbox one is
can we not have a console debate though
play what you want
Xbox One and the X look like retro futuristic VHS players
i dont care
Like if you asked an engineer in the late 70's to draw concept art
It's not a console debate
#battlefield-legacy-titles not #consolewars
It's an aesthetics debate
I agree with u grief
console battlefield
😛
i wish you could buy just peices for your controller
because i lost my spotting button
what do you mean?
like the button i preses to spot came off of my controller
Oh you mean like button replacements?
Damm
Doesn't the Xbox Elite Controller offer that?
ahh that’s hecked
has anyone pictures of the new exchange weapons ingame
Not that I would ever recommend anyone spending $150 on a controller
yeh i know a dude who spent $200 to get an edge on people in the forbidden f game
yeah
then again you might get banned
but then id need an adapter
how about pc?
guitar hero controller ftw
A lot of publishers/developers will ban you if you use mouse + keyboad in games
DOnkey KOnga Drums ftw
someoe needs to beat Dark Souls with a Dreamcast fishing wand
overwatch apparently does it
Yah
havent seen one person that xims get banned
i played that game for like 1000 hours aswell
xims?
a xim is basically a mouse and keyboarded
keyboarder*
its just easier to say
"that guy is so ximing"
can you guys got to #technology
good idea
so if anyone finds picture of the new exchange weapons ingame please notify me
anyways the new skins are 2k scraps each?
I'm so bored
jesus that will leave me broke if i buy anything
i am trying to get legendary weapon skin for all snipers i use
wtaf
last skin i bought was the dark brown martini henry skin
which came in some dumb pack
I want to play bfV badly
don’t we all friend
everyone does
but we all gotta wait
Oh I thought you guys would of played it..
oh yeah sorry im playing it rn
i’m playing it but in real life

the gun balancing sucks and there’s no hud
I've got a legendary skin for basically every weapon now, and only missing a couple of the variations too 😉
arghhhhhhhhhhhh

have you tried out the gun building system?
only a few people are actually good at it
Arghhhhhhh spoilers
also nobody ptfo like wtf dude we’re losing B
I know!
its like how we lost vietnam
or objective 'v'
Ptfo?
because some people protested
Suka BLYAT rush b
apparently the game has been out for ages aswell
like since human kind started
but the developers have added in all the gun dlcs as the game went on
What does ptfo mean
'play the fucking objective'
play the hecking objective
Lol
O
did you guys hear about how badly the servers did in 1939 to 1945?
so much lag
Lost the war against some rice farmers
oh yeh some austrian griefer
^
did you hear about all the free dlc they have been adding recently
new weapons
tanks
gadgets
Bf1 you mean budd?
i have a feeling they’re teasing new dlc
Good morning
hello
Should probs be chucking that in #streams-and-videos
thanks fam
👍
Anyone on
No 👀
i'm on... UK life
AUS lyfe, it's 4:30PM here 😛
Nazi during day.Templar at night.
just want to go home and play battlefield.. have to stay late tonight..
yeah isn't the greatest
You working?
I never had a job. What kind of jobs do you do?
Must be nice
work at some minimum wage job
boring
but better making something than doing nothing with your time
True dat.
you shouldn't be able to, maybe different styles of players but all from the same country
like if im playing as germany
i expect to see czechoslovakia, german, and austrian troops
if im playing as britain
i expect British troops
not an asian
i dont care about gender
but race is a different thing
and if im playing as japan i dont mind if there are some chinese in my team
yeah thats fine
or if im america in the pacific theatre i dont mind some australians and new zealanders
as thats where they mainly fought when american joined
indeed they did
because im pretty sure i was playing as germany on rotterdam
and i revived someone
and i thought they looked like an asian female
i dont know if i was wrong
or if this was true
females were in war, i follow a ww2 picture account on twitter
ahhhahaAAHAHAHAHHA
english females were in war.... since england was in war.. they were in england making sandwiches 😉
no.. but they were there.. doubt uk women
i didn't play 1942
on ps3 you could play the demo for 1942 over and over again
then they removed the feature
Did you play the beta?
it was good but laggy
im not sure if im going to pre order or not
The Rotterdam map was very cool, but the Narvik map wasn't all that great
it is good af
I preordered on day 1 and didn't regret it after the beta
i enjoyed narvik the most
yes who hasnt
good question
#ripcod
bo4 is pretty good to be honest, compared to the ww2
both BF and cod is good
One thing i don't like abot bfv is that Medic has the SMG's and Assault has the AR's
i know it makes more sense that way, but im a medic main, cause i loved his abilities and he had the AR's
hey again
hello
That's the same thinking I have Scientist, I wish that medics had the SLR's
who remembers Battlefield Friends
It feels weird that the medic will be the short range class
A medic is usually behind their teams healing so they need something ranged to kill with
I always thought of Assault as the run and gun type of class destroying tanks and flanking enemies
but this is my personal thoughts
i like the thought of the medic being up close and personal
being able to revive people in close quaters situations
It's kinda like BF4, although I'll admit I used the DMR's in that too
But assault pretty much has half of the gun name is his class name
so it why shouldn't he have the assault rifles?
It would be cool to make it 50/50
assault got some AR's and SMG's and the medic got the rest of them
kind of a mix
I just want medics to have the ZH
but one thing is sure though, the snipers in bfv feels very good to use
and they are more balanced than the bf1 snipers
Medic with STG would be great
Well, not really. The pros go for the head and that's easier to hit now
It's more for the noobs who sit back with the m1903 and 1-hit body shot peeps
oh, i thought it was harder to hit the head in bfv
but, they will be less bullshit so thats nice
Na it seemed way easier when I was playing the alpha and beta
I mean technically the Xbox X would be able to run 60hz
whjat console
Will 60hz come to ps4 after release?

bfv will be a big success 
I hope so
it wont
It looks great and is cheaper than most new games
So i agree that bfv will become huge

I just hope that lootboxes won't be in it
battlepacks are also lootboxes
Yes, it's not good that bf1 has them either
I'd rather have skin packs sold seperatly. I want to pay for stuff i want instead of having a 80% chance to get a common skin
It's just that EA is the publisher and you know how glad they are in their microtransactions
I never buy lootboxes/battlepacks either, but im tired of grinding to get them and then getting shit loot
But the game will be great with or without it. Im just hoping they won't add it
they added it
oof
they said it that we can buy cosmetics
think of siege where you play the game, get in game currency, and then you can buy shit
I do think that you might be able to unlock certain cosmetics for weapons by simply leveling them up as well
so there's that
:v
origin is down?
Yup
everyone panic

thx pow
anyone here know how i can fix the dx error on bf1?he says "device removed,be sure u have more than 2gb vgram",but im have 8gb
which gpu ?
rx 480 strix 8gb
i send a ticket to ea,week ago,and they say my gpu is broken,but i have problems only with bf1
have you tried reinstalling direct x11 drivers and the drivers for the gpu
i reset my entire computer,like 3 times
try to run the game with 5 different drivers
and some time have the same issue

error 404 game not found
I mean battlefield makes great FPS games in terms of gameplay and destruction and sound design and the graphics especially
It’s one of the few multiplayer FPS games I enjoy playing
i cant even log in to origin xd
origin is down atm
origin is down 
no
thx

battlefield server has been fallen
Surprise
......
@celest wave Ive run bf1 on a 2gb card so thats not the issue
U have tried dx 11 instead of 12?
Dx 12 on bf1 is buggy
Battlefield fa😫 ll from for Roskomnadzor
i try to reinstall dx on my pc,before i use dx11,now the windows put dx12 here
once origin back,ill try to play with this dx
Have u tried reseating the gpu
Have you tried resetting life?
yep,my motherboard have 5 pci-e,i try in 3 already
my top one has steel,is much better
origin resurrection
Pretty sure dice just used a wrapper and not properly coded the engine for dx12
I don't think so?
GOD FUCKING DAMNIT
I know I am on xbox but, being on discords and reddits, I didn't see anyone talking lightly about it
Failed to conect to EA online
Inside voices, there are kids here
FOR FUCKS SAKE EA
Then they might have done it properly this time
I haven't tried
Fuckimng hell EA. Sort your shit out
i get around 100fps on ultra settings with dx12,100fps all time
on bf1 i got 100~40
so bad
I'll test bfront 2 today on my new card
I'll let panda go ape on the testing when the game is out
Reformat was great success
i got my origin up
Fuck I had a question and forgot it because it didn't fit with the current topic
@icy sluice the answer is, format
No matter the question
Ya installing windows is pretty quick these days.
Back in my day it took 3 days to get windows 95 back up and running!
Was the key stored on your motherboard?
I remember one day it took like 4 hours because I had no extra computer or way to get my nic drivers
What do you guys think about weapon inspecting in BFV? Especially with this whole overhaul to weapon customization? (Not in it, just asking for preference_
Ah, I fucked up the edit, oh well
Inspecting?
Useless but I won't be mad if people want it in
Like basically rotating your gun to get a better view in the fps mode
Like CS:GO and CoD are doing it
Like like like, like like!
Oh never heard that term, I don't care what my weapon looks like I just have one mode and that's kill
You only get to see it from one perspective anyway
Go ahead, more distracted people for me to gun down

Look at my new unlocked ski...BLAP
Whoa whoa, what have I got to do to get the trusted tag? 
Succ and not tell anyone
Cant connect to EA onlline in BF1 main menu

We're aware of connectivity issues affecting players at the moment and are working to resolve them. Thank you.

If I succed to get trusted, who did I succ? 
Evidently Hess? Come here babe

I wanted to apply for mod but you guys didn't want anymore yuropeens
Being a mod is too much responsibility, but I wanna !dog!
It's not too bad the trick is to show dominance so people stay in line

😉
😓
Rdr2 coming soon boyos
Will hold me over till bfv
Plus tides of war info sometime this week
i own an xbox one s for UHD playback only
pokes the console
you can play games? meh
Honestly not too excited about rdr2
Rdr was pretty good though
More excited about fallout 76 
It was a choice between blops 4, rdr2, bfv, and f76
I'll try the f76 beta this afternoon hopefully
F76 looks bad. Hopefully im wrong because the setting is cool
And if I don't like it I could just refund it for something else
It looks like a lot of fun imo
On paper. But what was shown to me doesn't look like fun at all
Probably just because my heart is aching from ark
Excited about Vanoss playing Rdr2 with his friends. thats it lmao
From what rockstar did to GTA v I wasn't really hopeful for rdr2
is rdr2 some sort of single play through type game?
Kinda?
Did you accidentally format your brain?
never played never will ;P
It's pretty much a singleplayer campaign set in a nice open world, part of the love for the game is the storyline since it's set in the decaying years of the American frontier where outlaws were being hunted down by Federal agents and Bureaucracy was taking over the lands
And while I'm excited for RDR2 and eager to play it on Friday, I will admit part of me was hoping it would take place in the year 1914 and carry on the post Van Der Linde gang storyline
Horseballsackphysics. What's not to like
Even if there's nothing else to tell
Looks good to me
I preordered it just cause loved the first one and know rockstar wont dissapoint
Plus hold ke over till bfv
man isuck scoring as support, i think i do better on scout
throw down ammo constantly?
doesnt work!
you tell me, score didnt add up was bottom 5
..the hell
fix the servers
throw down ammo, caps and defend flags
whats wrong with server?
unless you're not actually ptfoing
seems fine atm
ps4 server still down
was some weird tug o war map i was playing the objective by taking people out
oh.. well 😄
Hmm debating just uninstalling bf1 and wait for bfv
But then all these free stuff they doing
Smart boyos
Paratrooper tokens
Yeah
After rdr2 prob wont play a whole lot
Just one time a week for tokens and stuff
We be paratroopers 'n shit
https://i.pinimg.com/originals/4f/53/bd/4f53bdd554d09e5855e92097600e109f.jpg
The things relating to BFV in the road are Paratrooper tokens and Arras weapon skins
it's exciting 😃
Paratrooper tokens are used to unlock paratrooper outfit sets
Is origin down? Can't even connect it
Neither can I
Ah
so should be, @silk mist
Thanks!
PC master race!
Which sniper is the best?
@buoyant night m30 drilling
Oh okay I’m currently using the Russian I’m getting tired of it so I’ll try that one...
@restive talon
There's Gewehrs
Kinda wish the G98 is going to be in BfV, even though yeah they were mostly only given to Volkstrumm, but still one can dream
Well the kar 98k is going to be in, pretty much the same thing.
id use smythic to get a feel for what sniper weap you'd want
all have different 1 shot min max ranges
I don't think there are any one-hit kill scout rifles in BFV.
At least as far as I know.
martini henry infantry does 120 damage at certain range
pretty sure ive 1 shot without head but i guess i could be wrong
Maybe the guy you shot didnt have full health.
im still convinced it is a 1 shot chest weap from 30-80m
its not a practical weapon to use it, rarely in use
Well in BF1 the Scout can 1 shot on body shots, but they got rid of that mechanic in BFV
oh i missed the V part 😄
Yeah, it's fine my dude
Yeah, from what I played of Scout in the Beta, the most I ever did on a body shot was around 55
i mean is that from a dev chat or just from the limited weaps we had and we dont know if weapon specialization changes anything
Just from the weapons we had, so I guess it might change on full release
what was the first sniper rifle in 1, SMLE?
man the martini is so satisfying lol
like a cannon 1 shot
i love knowing its only a 1 shot 30-80 and playing for that
I think they're still trying to figure out how to balance Bolt-Actions tbh, cause in 4, Sniper Rifles could 1 shot at close-range, then they changed it to the Sweet Spot mechanic for 1.
Anyone use the ZH-29? Sniper in 5
I sometimes like to play dangerously as scout. Then I'll go martini as primary and Obrez as secondary
The ZH was pretty good from what I remember, especially if you played Aggressive. I mean, you still got outgunned by STGs and the like, but it worked
The ZH and the STG where the two best weapons in the beta.
Stg was slightly op I think
Speciellt if you unlocked everything on it
It was ridiculously powerful
I don't see it that way
I think they should make other weapons more powerful to match it
And drop the pretentious nonsense with death animations
And bleeding mechanic
But then everyone would just use those two.
They shoud make it so that you can press an key to skip the bleedout aniation.
Bleeding is fine. Id prefer ppl kinda wait around then jump right into spawns
welp, BF is all about finding the most OP combination and abusing it
Its inconvenient. But I think games can afford inconvenienve for the sake of pacing
@sacred junco problem is that the vast majority f medics didn't give two shits about you laying there bleeding out
Just because developers add in a mechanics doesn't mean players will play that way
We'll have to see inn the long term
My team kinda did most times @tribal ledge
And reviving is riskier now
9 timed put of 10 medics didn't give 2 shits when I died
Squad mates can revive you now as well
@wild oxide they are nore helpful
Its hard to see if player behavior wont be reinforced after the initial release
Yeah i couldnt figure out how to supply myself for a while
Not even in a key listed in the binding menu
It took me about 4 days into the beta before I figured out how to use Squad Reinforcements
I mashed the give-ammo button like a Mongoloid for half an hour first time I played support in BF V
@wild oxide t shouldnt take 4 days. They should explain it to players
Yes, that's why I said it
Yeah hopefully they have a better tooltip
With the newer mechanics
Its amazing how long ppl can play ignorant of hidden mechanics
Yeah games need to make it more apparent
The game doesn't take its time to explain things properly and reward people to follow up on those mechanics
Especially for a gsme with a large pub crowd
i mean, it was beta
Yeah thats what I hope too
I still see +50 rank medics in BF1 that genuinely don't know how to revive
Ppl who wont buy it were playing it too
even if they dont explain, its its not any game devs job to hand walk everyone
Yeah I could tell. The first 2 days players were running around like headless chickens
I honestly didnt want to revive my team cause the game would sap my weapon for his everytime.
Swap
@dense bone there's a fine balance between barely giving infonand hand walking
Youd be amazed how many ppl didnt know you could give yourself ammo as support
I only knew from watching clips
Heh
Which one
Mash keyboard randomly until shit happens
Not really shown
all of them
The problem with that right, is that you have to hold the button to supply/heal yourself
I had to look it up since i knew it was a thing
Keybindings in controles
Doesn't show up there, I don't think
@wild oxidewhell thats shit
I think part of it comes down to devs having a different view on what seems easy/natural to try.
I often notice streamers getting flummoxed by things that seem completely obvious.
I think that the game should cater to introducing the game as well as possible. Not necessarily catering the entire game for beginners, but really takes its time to explain scenarios, mechanics, strategies etc
Remember that the game lives and dies by its playerbase
yeah make it easy to learn hard to master
And I have to remember that I grew up in the generation where maps were a goddamned luxury, and you read the manual or got hopelessly lost.
Small playerbase means the game will die faster
not always
the road map will be on Wednesday by the look of it... the wait is killing me
a small playerbase could be way more dedicated than a huge playerbase that got hyped for a bad game
Like, I still have the Alpha Centauri manual around somewhere, it's the size of a small textbook.
That used to be normal, and most devs are in my cohort.
do the kids bitch about having to memorize 10 keys for fatalities these days in MK?
Pff, god you want bad, input, try memorizing Uriko's input ring for her supers in Bloody Roar.
you know one of the first "Sandbox" type games i played that had no direction was Escape Velocity but these days iwant nothing to do with a sandbox game
i love sandbox games
Plus the if you are used to bf1 bfv feels off first
but i also love games like bf
V feels more like 4 hopefully?
I was wondering why i couldnt lay down boxes for a while
v feels like no other battlefield
EV was awesome, and did sandbox right IMO.
but its better
It wasn't full of random mechanics for the sake of random mechanics.
i dont see why people want v to feel like 4
Big universe, but very minimalist mechanics.
the guns and gameplay was unbalanced
I was hoping BFV would feel more like BC2.
Though that was before I got my hands on the beta.
It does slightly
Gunplay in BFV exceeded my hopes.
Still a bit disappointed that they walked back on AT vs tanks though.
I think its kinda okay so far
The trend of making tanks require more than one assault's full ammo load of AT to take out is obnoxious.
As is the stupid sustainability of them.
Dont want it tobe like bf4 where tanks are just fast infantry
one assault shouldnt be able to take down a tank
its a tank
not a person
teamwork should be needed to take it down
Are you arguing this from a game balance perspective or a muh realism perspective?
Because I got bad news either way.
both
Balance-wise, it's still one player.
As for IRL, a single infantry AT weapon will cook a tank.
I dont want ppl to solo limited larger vehicles too easily
yes the tanks are powerful, but isnt that the point? you shouldnt need your whole squad attacking it, but just two people could do it
One assault should be able to take down an incompetent tank, if a tanker can manage his positioning, angles, and weapons, then it should require multiple people to take down (my opinion)
A shaped charge penetrating either the engine or crew compartment is usually a mission kill.
you have the think of it in larger scale
what would a easier vehicle kill mean?
Means more vehicles will play passively
its not like bf4 where tanks are very maneuverable
BC2 had soloable vehicles, saw plenty of aggressive play.
They wont breakthrough if a single assault can kill them outright easily
I'm not saying you should be able to nuke them from the front.
still faster
BC2's model of having to get either point-blank with C4, or rear aspect shots with launchers was good.
you can still do it with mines
It meant a single assault could guarantee that an out-of-position tank died.
As it stands, we are still missing some big pieces of the puzzle for this meta, a) how effective the gadgets will be, and b) specializations of the tank,
i agree with shadox
Mines are unreliable.
