Us team?
crimson orchid
He is aim assist in a person
icy sluice
CronusMax and Xim can be detected. Fortnite kicks people if they detect it
But then a patch or code was swiftly made by xim users and it's already all good
heckin' smart people
proven quartz
oof competitive play with aim assist lmao
amber notch
icy sluice
That's not very cash money of you
proven quartz
its noticeable
icy sluice
Aim Assist is shit
proven quartz
probably since I don't use it
icy sluice
Like, sometimes it will snap to someone completely different
About twice in my lifetime when using aim assist, an enemy sprints right past me and the aim snaps onto them
Like a fucking magnet
I got that kill but there was like two enemies in front of me, killing me.
tropic orchid
I turned it off coz it would snap to a different person and that would kill me
crimson orchid
Uffff he doesnโt play with aa @proven quartz
tropic orchid
but I have seen a lot of people on console using the rapid fire of the cronus and that with the autloading is just a nightmare
I left the aim slow down on since it help me if Iโm using a high sensitivity 75%
icy sluice
I don't need rapid fire
I am the rapid fire ๐
btw, I am surprised there exists hair trigger mods for BF1 when... you can easily just change a setting
Literally just turn RT Threshold to like 5% and you're done
solid hinge
@tropic orchid you don't need an cronus to fire the autoloading it's a god gun
icy sluice
You're talking about using the Keyboard and Mouse or using stupid codes?
solid hinge
You just need a fast trigger finger ๐๐
icy sluice
I know but some people still need to rely on stupid codes sometimes
solid hinge
I've seen a guy with 100 thousand plus autoloading kills ๐ค

Look at the Frommer Stop (pistol, not the carbine)

Why did they change Strength and Guile to Under No Flag? I understand it's a name of a War Story but that makes it blend with search results and shit
Plus kinda makes it confusing if it comes into a topic :v

Iโm honestly wondering why thereโs different release dates
For battlefield v
Why not release it at the same time for everyone
ok
bf1 i think is the most unoptimised game
i have just done so much fiddling using youtube videos
and now my game is perfect
feels good
and i finally fixed my ping problem

@icy sluice https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01N7U18M1/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 that budget cpu can run bf1 easily.

Could I get origin access premier free trial for 10 days and then purchase bfv?
sacred junco
I don't wanna buy premier, but want to get the full benefits
Still haven't use my trial
so I was wondering if I could use trial and then just get the game after the trial expires
I think i basically most of the time between normal release and premier release
solid hinge
is there
a mode
in bf1
without spotting
see i could have written that in one sentence
but im a millenial
millenialil
fiery tinsel
I need to squad up because my platoon is dead at the moment.... ๐
solid hinge
yes
hardcore mode has no minimap or 3d spotting
for u bf5 desires
I wonder why the different release dates for battlefield v
Why not release it at the same time for everyone
prolong the hype period
and because ea
solid hinge
For what game
noble current
hard moss
I got another notification on my phone about 25 free battlepacks today from the battlefield app, but don't seem to have them in game.
Did that refer to last week?
pure veldt
if you re-log 3x and nothing is there, assume not
sometimes it takes a ton of log ins to trigger different rewards
hard moss
Alrighty, thanks
pure veldt
actually.. lol
start a game, and then it triggered that i have 25 new packs
i had to queue into a server and click the bottom left packs icon now all a sudden i got 25 more
weee x_x
MOAR CLICKS
pure veldt
yep, but makes gun selection a lot easier
i havent played in ages.. SMLE still 1 shot? lol
solid hinge
uh probably not i think
pure veldt
gaah.. of course I get The Flaming Bullet martini henry skin when i dont play anymore ๐
solid hinge
so good
u cant spot
no minimap
only first person in everything
u can teamkill
yaaaaaaaaaaaaas
pure veldt
so in V.. no spotting but still spot flares eh? but theres something to counter it, a passive?
solid hinge
dunno how V works
in bf1 there is a passive that stops u getting spotted by them by moving slowly
storm gulch
Probably a recon passive, or "scout"
solid hinge
About 2 weeks battlefield v launches for the first batch of players with origin premiere
lol
just got ran over by friendly tank
hahahahaha
pure veldt
thats a big one to avoid in HC, its your job to be aware of all tanks lol
storm gulch
You're a predator?
storm gulch
solid hinge
I thought I was Medic
Not a predator well what ever we all get promoted at some time
Are yโall hype for battlefield five
fiery tinsel
Very.
obsidian fossil
Super.
marsh ledge
Uber.
sick iris
I'm pretty hyped for br ngl. Especially when Battlefield is known for huge amount of players in 1 game I think it will be done very well. Also big maps is Battlefield's speciality
marsh ledge
I'm still iffy on it, but I guess time will tell how it is.
hoary condor
i'm not too sure on it
if the BR brings the squads to have mics and work as a unit... it will be awesome
hoary condor
lol
sick iris
solid hinge
Iโm hoping they bump the players from 64 to 100 unless the map doesnโt work for that
sick iris
I guess if it was 64 it would make sense since it's battlefield
tight kettle
everything is balanced around 64 players, from map size to performance
pure veldt
wait.. a multikill isnt just at once with a grenade etc..
wtf ;P
got 5 that round
facepalms
ok.. multikill requirement as medic isnt bad then
if they want no DLC and in app purchases to be the new income model, they will have to make it pop
when you get killed it doesnt show what weap skin etc you get killed with in BF1 right?
marsh ledge
Skill?
pure veldt
edit
pure veldt
like in Battlefront 2 it shows the rank of your thermal det
which is bragging rights
they need to shove bragging rights into every kill
not just the end game screen
marsh ledge
Like the Lawrence of Arabia SMLE doesn't show the skin, but if you have a Gewehr 98 with "The Kaiser" skin, it will show.
pure veldt
thats the best squad only so.. kinda meh
marsh ledge
Best Squad shows weapon and skin.
pure veldt
yea that shows the shiny on it
they need all that on kills
basically something to shoot for in bfront 2 is all 4 dot skills
so when you die you're like heh allllright this guy been playin a while
marsh ledge
When you kill someone and they go to the death screen, they see your skin, dog tags, overall level, class level, and win/loss between you two.
marsh ledge
It was worse on release, if I recall.
marsh ledge
I did for PS4.
pure veldt
ermagerd
spark quarry
I did, PC
marsh ledge
Happy late birthday?

spark quarry
im the type of person
that is just bad at battlefield games
like im just bad
ppl: play more and u can 1v5
me: nope
plays 3 hours a day
still bad
๐
marsh ledge
I usually play when I get home.
After homework, and such.
The last thing I want to do before release is get my Cavalry to rank 10.
fathom pebble
got recently cavalry on level 10 and never touched it again
shadow vessel
Then homework
marsh ledge
That's a good point.
@fathom pebble I'd do that too, but getting Lance kills is just too fun for me.
Especially when you get one on another cavalry rider.
It's frustratingly difficult to do but when you land one, it's just...
Godly.
pure veldt
lol bf1 is $5 and premium pass free til Oct 31?
if the entire world doesnt own it now..
marsh ledge
I wish.
sick iris
๐
marsh ledge
I wonder if we're going to get cavalry back in V?
Would be interesting on the larger maps.
fathom pebble
thing is cavalry is to weak and you easly get killed on the horse
marsh ledge
Cavalry too weak?
The damn horse can take an Crayford shell to it and still ride around!
fathom pebble
we wont see the cavalry class in BF5
marsh ledge
Yeah, but it would be interesting to see it again. Maybe in a future game.
fathom pebble
Who knows
marsh ledge
Not us.
pure veldt
so basically.. deluxe, they're wanting you to spend $20 more for indefinite weekly customization items?
marsh ledge
With some other features.
shadow vessel
Kinda bummed out that BF5 skips 1939
marsh ledge
But mostly minor, like five guns immediately given for Deluxe owners.
And the airdrop stuff, of course.
marsh ledge
That's a good point, too.
pure veldt
but this infinite weekly thing seems like a really crucial thing
marsh ledge
That it does.
pure veldt
i never, ever buy deluxe
but now that we're losing DLC..
paid DLC
they are wanting your money somehow and this seems important.. i wonder if buying it later will back date any drops
marsh ledge
Sort of like how it did in BF1 with the crates?
pure veldt
yea premium flood lol
they give you 6 paratrooper sets out of 8 so these 2 we get this month seem like a good reason to play road to V
i was ignoring all of them til last week.. glad i decided to look
were all the previous ones just skins?
marsh ledge
I think so, along with some weapons.
Not needing to collect the puzzle pieces, they'd just give you the whole one.
pure veldt
stupid puzzles ;P
sick iris
I wanna rock the sten. That gun was lit in the beta
pure veldt
i have a new found enjoyment of LMG prone setting up offensively at a choke point
went 1st on team again
sick iris
Bren gun was sick too actually
marsh ledge
Honestly, I just like the MG 32/42 overheat anims.
The weapons are really a big reason for me in Battlefield games.
sick iris
What was the standard pistol?? I really liked it
storm gulch
marsh ledge
The handguns were awful in the beta though.
storm gulch
Bro then you didn't use them right
solid hinge
Iโm gonna rock the stg44 when the game comes out
sick iris
Stg44 was op at one point
marsh ledge
I have more service stars with the 1911 in BF1 than any other weapon, I believe.
sick iris
@storm gulch ikr it was good
marsh ledge
I probably used it too much and wasn't used to the new ones.
But to me they felt too weak.
Got three or four shots on a guy at 10 meters in the chest and only got, like, 53 damage.
Although it might have been that I actually sucked with sidearms in the beta, to be fair
Can't wait to test the theory.
sick iris
It was honestly rlly good that pistol
marsh ledge
Yes, yes.
pure veldt
"20 Weekly Items with Airlift" wait im now reading this as 20 weeks, 1 item ea
marsh ledge
Guess the power of German engineering wasn't enough for me.
pure veldt
not 20/wk ๐
sick iris
I was British once in the whole of the beta
sacred junco
Dunno why they didn't balans the Stg like the Ribeye-rolls
sacred junco
balance
marsh ledge
Sorry, sorry.
It's probably because of different configurations and cartridge types.
sacred junco
I guess it would've been a kinda mediocre weapon
Even then games like CoD WaW made it into a peashooter as well
while giving Type 100 basically the same profile as a Thompson except with 10+ mags
marsh ledge
The Ribeyrolles used an experimental 8x35mm round, while the StG-44 used a 7.92x33mm round.
Due to it's configuration, the Ribeyrolles was probably to be used as a Squad Automatic Weapon, while the StG was meant to be more medium-range and mobile.
sick iris
I'm glad standard assault class rifle isn't a semi auto
marsh ledge
It is 100%, by definition.
tight kettle
im kind of bummed out the assault class wont have SMGs
marsh ledge
Would you rather the medic class have Self-Loading rifles?
marsh ledge
It would probably get old if every single player used a Sten Gun, wouldn't it?
marsh ledge
If it did go like that, people would complain about it.
sick iris
Yeah
tight kettle
bf4 had same weapons covering multiple classes did it not
It WaS The BeST BaTTlEFiElD EVErrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
sick iris
Sten and stg where both really good so I don't blame them
sacred junco
Didnt like the idea of it
marsh ledge
I found pics of the gun I was thinking of.
sick iris
I wanna get the bren gun ASAP
marsh ledge
@tight kettle That it did, but how often did you see people using the shared primary weapons instead of the one they've been specifically assigned to the class they chose?
tight kettle
I don't remember. BF4 was bland and easily forgettable.
SMGs fit perfectly in the assault class, look at fucken bf1
why switch them to a whole different class
marsh ledge
There weren't exacly any assault rifles in WW1, so of course they's give the assault class something ideal for close encounters.
sacred junco
I guess they wanted assault to be the generalist combatant that is good for most situations
whilst opting other classes to have more specialized weapons
sacred junco
to encourage them to play them according to their perks
marsh ledge
By that logic, why do we get an StG-44 in the beta, even though it takes place in 1940?
icy sluice
Fedorov can technically be considered an Assault Rifle
marsh ledge
By definition it was.
sacred junco
Probably for balance and feature purposes
marsh ledge
And still is, really.
sacred junco
Id imagine people want an AR at launch
tight kettle
ya i dont see why 1 weapon type can't transfer over to multiple classes
smgs are too good to be left out for fast assault play
sacred junco
I bet my ass Fedorov is gonna be added in with Russians
marsh ledge
Because at that point why have other classes?
@sacred junco The Fedorov-Degtyarov is confirmed for BFV for deluxe owners, I believe.
tight kettle
because classes have specific objectives
icy sluice
Ya know what's a feature I'd love for BFV? War Director. You're able to place dummy soldiers in multiplayer maps and have them do animations, perfect for taking cinematic screenshots or something
marsh ledge
And the true Fedorov was only really used turing the Winter War.
marsh ledge
Hmm...
sacred junco
They were used in Manchuria apparently
sacred junco
They did use Arisaka rounds
marsh ledge
It's possible.
icy sluice
Good to know no one likes my idea 
sacred junco
Its just gonna be ppl making dabbing poses
icy sluice
lol
marsh ledge
Maybe it isn't...
icy sluice
Well, predefined poses not custom bone poses
sacred junco
They could add a floss emote
icy sluice
Okay, I mean like sliding and maybe something like a "GO! GO! GO!"
sacred junco
If you could spectate shooting range sessions
maybe you could kinda setup stuff with your friend while you film it
languid forge
points down
sacred junco
CoD WW2 already added all the memeiest guns possible
Even a prototype japanese smg that was never produced
icy sluice
Calvary Shield
icy sluice
Yeah, it sounds like shit
https://youtu.be/0nreYRGecoI?t=42
I can slam a liter bottle of frozen Pepsi and it will sound better than that.
waxen crystal
The 11 days release window is awful in my opinion
like if you spend the money on the deluxe there's still people who played for a week before you
and if it's the standard it's 11 days
sacred junco
WaW had horrible gun sounds
Probably one of the worst
Maybe besides the MP40 they all sound like peashooters
and thread needles
shadow vessel
How dare you say that
WaW mg42 sounded awesome from a distance
Sounds like a saw
gray glade
best mg42 in a game i tried so far was day of defeat tbh
really shreds ppl but you are kind of vulnerable with bipod deployed
marsh ledge
In BFV, it's literally a bullet hose.
Gonna be interesting to see that fire rate.
And the reload, too.
gray glade
fire rate is 1200 rpm when upgraded i think
which is good cuz afaik thats what it had IRL most of the time
marsh ledge
Yeah.
I believe some, might have been post-war exampkes, had their bolts modified to lower the rate of fire.
gray glade
yep, alot of the mg42's we see on youtube are like 900 or even less
marsh ledge
I find it funny, really.
The MG-42 was chosen over the MG-32 because it was easier to produce and had a higher rate of fire.
icy sluice
I posted my mini-suggestion of War Director on r/BattlefieldV and people seem to like the idea there 
marsh ledge
Yet some examples were modified to lower it.
@icy sluice Nice! Hopefully it becomes an actual feature.
sacred junco
high fire rate isn't necessarily a good thing afterall
just burns through more ammo
marsh ledge
And barrels.
marsh ledge
Wartime since then has changed.
It's not about accuracy, just about ammount.
Quantity over quality.
icy sluice
Shoot the man in the arm
full nimbus
whats the server name again (BF1 VC guys)
marsh ledge
Huh?
glad wasp
One thing I'll point out, especially for a conscription army, something like 80% of troops dont even fire their gun at the enemy
pure veldt
lets change "revive" to a system where you return at a health related to how you died and a relatable impairment.. you got your legs shot off to drain your health you'll be cripple walking, good? awesome, that'll go over really well
glad wasp
the incendiary death revives are the worst, I'm burned to a crisp....pad the flames out and go
pure veldt
oh yea and it's additive impairments ๐
burnt to death = slow ADS and overall movement, leg crippled, grenade = concussion effect
glad wasp
i hope this is /s
marsh ledge
Most likely.
umbral anvil
bf1 has been out years, why havent they fixed the overpowered horses
dense bone
^
umbral anvil
literally spray 60 bullets
and they still alive and then they kill me
annoying af
dense bone
i hate that i hs the fucking rider multiple times and it means nothing
marsh ledge
Usually you'd take them on as a group or squad, right?
sacred junco
tbf tho Caporetto would be impossible as attackers half the time if horses weren't so durable
marsh ledge
I've found that support can fairly easily kill them with skill.
glad wasp
they buffed the horses btw
dense bone
hey, im more skilled than a vast majority of players, and fuck horses
glad wasp
was crap for a while
dense bone
and i played support as well
pure veldt
yesterday i put like 15 rounds mast into a fkin horse and its owner and nothing
with the low weight
i was just smashing it with so many rounds.. if it were a real horse, jesus lol
bloody mess
do they have any weak points?
up the ass?
dense bone
does/should it matter?
marsh ledge
I mean, yes.
marsh ledge
Don't some of them have different damage models?
dense bone
yes, but its 15 rounds...
of even the weakest lmg
that shouldnt leave a horse or rider alive
marsh ledge
They did say they hit both rider and horse, so it could have been tawdry.
dense bone
idk if its a split health pool, if it is then even more so, fuck horses
marsh ledge
Riders and the horse itself have different health pools.
pure veldt
the newb one
glad wasp
horses would have been useless in this game if balanced normally
pure veldt
15 a something i dunno
marsh ledge
The MG 15 N.a.?
dense bone
@glad wasp agreed, doesnt mean they make them as fucking stupid as they are now
pure veldt
yep
marsh ledge
The 08/18 should prove far easier for killing horses, or something with a higher rate of fire.
And a larger magazine.
pure veldt
too late for bf1, im level 3 support and have nothing unlocked ๐
marsh ledge
The Low Weight of the 08/18 can be unlocked after getting 50 kills with support class. When you get it, I very much recommend replacing the n.A.
glad wasp
@dense bone , use the rocket gun, it one shots horses
marsh ledge
At least in my experience.
dense bone
and i dont play assault
glad wasp
I swear every time I shot I get a kill
marsh ledge
The horse takes about 60 points, so you might be hitting a weakened horse.
glad wasp
Normally when I get rammed by a horse, I switch to assault to exact my revenge
glad wasp
Also, they cant turn for shit, so its not too hard to dodge them unless you were not paying attention
glad wasp
BF1 was sub-par, worse bf for me
marsh ledge
Unless they're coming up a hill at a very specific and rare angle.
pure veldt
08-18 on smythic shows it has a lot more horizontal kick?
glad wasp
Ground is just explosive spam and getting farmed by bomber and arty truck
marsh ledge
Which is why you use it prone.
It's not a very close quarters oriented weapon, so medium or medium-long engagement distance is ideal
Usually anything beyond 15-20 meters, and within 120 meters.
solid hinge
The one thing I always love about battlefield is the frostbite engine it runs on
Frostbite 3 being the most pretty
If only they got nodding to work
solid hinge
I honestly don't buy that its fully like that
Its a mixture of 2 factors
Logistics and monetary reasons
rough smelt
why would a company just hand out the tools for an engine that's been made in house
this isn't unreal or unity
solid hinge
They could just make the community make maps and then put those as dlc
rough smelt
but for them. it does nothing
solid hinge
Then why did dice do it in the past
rough smelt
?
solid hinge
Well what I'm saying is
It is because there's no benefit for them, sure
But it's also because it requires alot of people to work on a map
The point I'm by saying is that it's not this conspiracy that ea doesn't like modding and they feel insecure about their maps
sacred junco
I'd assume it's a lot harder to add proper mod support for sprawling modern games requiring a lot of assets beyond simple texture packs to create new units
sacred junco
At that point might as well just release the Frostbite engine and let ppl have a go at making a game
glad wasp
Frostbite is proprietary, this is why no modding is available

The frostbite engine is also relatively new
glad wasp
not anymore
sacred junco
modern TW games have some mod support but its pretty limited at least in terms of adding new assets
usually involve slapdashing existing assets into something else
glad wasp
solid hinge
Yes but it's the only one that has actual destruction
glad wasp
these guys appears to have some stuff figured out
sacred junco
its easier to kinda play make believe with older extures
solid hinge
I wonder can dice shut venice unleashed down
glad wasp
theres now limited modding capacity, still no map mods though
rough smelt
legally.. pretty sure
sacred junco
oh imagine the butthurt
solid hinge
I have seen map editing
glad wasp
As long as it requires a origin copy of BF3 to run, I don't see how they can shut it down
solid hinge
I mean it requires a copy of bf3 and I don't think EA cares tbh
glad wasp
Who said you cant mod bethesda's new engine?
No one knows anything about starfield's engine
glad wasp
But its true, Creation engine is much too old
sacred junco
Despite the fact it allowed you to add in just about any mod you wanted
glad wasp
There's a reason why fallout 4 map was so small
Also Boston still runs like ass in fo4
glad wasp
fair point
Anyways, frostbite seems really powerful, so I understand why DICE still wants it under raps
glad wasp
I mean look at Mass Effect Andromeda, massive worlds, no loading screen for dungeons etc
I wonder if Mp player count can be pushed past 64 at one point
solid hinge
As I said, there has to be a logistical reason
Its not solely because of dlc
Or because they like consoles
greek map in early 2019?

Everyone asked for Live Service 
If we had premium pass, that wouldn't be the case ๐
rough smelt
I find a stable fun game > constant content updates
updates are nice
but 2 maps in 5 months isn't the end of the world so long as the game is fucking stable
violet locust
But, people didn't want premium pass, so now it's not guaranteed content like we had with premium pass
ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
solid hinge
They asked for it really
sacred junco
I think my issue with premium was basically it realy doesn't let me go back in
If I get bored and I want to play again I have to fork out money
rough smelt
premium split the player base and the servers running those maps would dwindle to a few handful after like 2-3 weeks
sacred junco
and the issue is its a really bad deal to get each packs separately
You don't even know if people play one pack over the other
rough smelt
and yeah, the fragmentation doesn't help
sacred junco
Like if I want to jump back in after Armored Kill came out in bf3
rough smelt
can't play on certain servers if you don't have 2/3 of the dlcs depending on what map pool they are running
sacred junco
and only want to try that out
I can't really just buy armored kill expecting that purchase to last
when game will end up with either only vanilla servers or tied-up dlc servers
There is very little guarantee your purchase is safe unless you get premium
I can't just jump back in, I either pay up a full price again just to try it out or wait until its all free
Blops 1 in PC was basically dead after the first map pack. PC base of CoD was already small enough
You can't enjoy 2-3 remaining servers with dlc maps without getting all the map packs
rough smelt
yep
there are a good chunk of BF4 servers still up
most of them are running 75-100% of the dlc
and then there are some servers running vanilla, and the occasional 24/7 shanghai/metro
if you don't have any of the dlc, or you only have one or two
good luck playing on most of those servers
cause you'll be denied
with this live service, everyone gets to play and enjoy all the content
sacred junco
Even BF1 had to do some wringing to get ppl to play
rough smelt
you won't be getting as much at once
sacred junco
Allowing non purchasers to play rotations, and operations
rough smelt
but if you need to be constantly injected with content in order to enjoy the game as a whole... well... that's sounds like a personal problem if that's the only thing that'll keep you playing
sacred junco
In the end, you can't expect something to last forever
Too many games to play
so new content is always nice to have in steady stream to convince ppl
Rare to have games like CSGO where people just stick onto without much in the way of major updates
rough smelt
well, with things like CSGO, .. valve isn't making a new CS every 2 years
and I swear it's this cycle bullshit that's hurting these kinds of games
like BF etc
they try to churn out a bunch of stuff, only for it to be dropped and forgotten later on because they need to make another title
sacred junco
I think BFV is trying to emulate the long-term scheme of recent multiplayer games
But I dunno how they are planning to finance it
rough smelt
I hope that's what they plan on doing
rough smelt
well that's the thing. Will this game be enjoyable enough for ppl, and will ppl be putting money into it, that it can sustain itself past 2 years
if they even plan on doing that
sacred junco
and Siege is a highly competitive game with some form of personal intimacy in the experience, but BF is kinda just a pub clusterfuck
I dunno if ppl care enough to invest in bling for such game
especially for a cyclical release like BF
rough smelt
because for all we know, there could be a handful of ppl already planning BF6 rn
sacred junco
Gotta be like Wargaming
make your consumer into your bitch and milk a single product for a decade
sacred junco
but EA has enough money and wants more money to be content with that scheme I think
rough smelt
trying to enact such a change will rattle ppl
aaand this game is also WW2, and a good chunk will want modern mil
so,

As I said before, the reaction of WG fanbase to the SWBF2 was pretty funny
rough smelt
wait and see ๐ฟ
tropic zinc
You cant wait for BC3? :P
rough smelt
I mean... I'd take it in a heartbeat if it was announced lmao
violet locust
BC3 with Premium Pass and RSP ๐
tropic zinc
Maybe 2020
Ea this year realesed everything idk what they will realese next yr
BF, NFS, BATTLEFRONT and im missing something
But i hope their next bf game is modern warfare
Like sumshit against talibans
tropic zinc
I even use sniper to destroy veichles
tropic zinc
Yup
solid hinge
I do me
I think it was amazing
looks nice, plays like shit
and no, I didn't come from cod
name me a good map
cod is ass
passchendaele
solid hinge
doesn't get shittier than apoc maps
solid hinge
apoc has the worst maps
granted, the only map I didn't really like from the apoc expansion
was somme
no sorry
gonna replace that with Caporetto
kapparetto?
solid hinge
basically the basegame middle east maps & caporetto
solid hinge
are maps that I don't really wanna bother playing
tropic zinc
Blitz
solid hinge
some maps were designed well but every single one of them is bad because of the way bf1 is played
tropic zinc
Balroom shitblitz is horrible
solid hinge
I simply hate the fact that Caporetto is kinda shit made, so its easy for defenders to trap attackers
tropic zinc
solid hinge
basically turning it into a spawntrapping fest
tropic zinc
solid hinge
not saying it hasn't happened with the other APOC maps, seems to just mainly happen with caporetto
and maybe Somme if you're put on a bad team
tropic zinc
solid hinge
pass seemed like the only "normal" map
tropic zinc
In 30 min i will have to return job..
solid hinge
pass was the only map that wasn't hit by the conquest assault syndrome
tropic zinc
5hrs till day off
solid hinge
somme is absolutely terrible, until about 10-ish minutes in where its basically just regular conquest
then its actually a load of fun
rough smelt
BF1 for me, god damn clusterfuck that was a slap in the face
solid hinge
good man
rough smelt
and then a middle finger afterwards
solid hinge
I think the biggest gamechanger was ttk 2.0
rough smelt
can't believe I dumped $$ for premium
rough smelt
ttk 2.0 slightly improved things
solid hinge
I even gave 2$ for battlepack
solid hinge
2.0 is shit
rough smelt
rush... was murdered in a back alley
rough smelt
and a good chunk of the ops maps were poorly balanced
rough smelt
like..ffs the Italian map is still broken on operations
sacred junco
Operations is such a clusterfuck
sacred junco
Made me quit BF1 for 2 years
rough smelt
and make it a cap point
sacred junco
Made me think DICE just wanted to create a grandiose experience for the players without accounting for actual balance or design
solid hinge
then switched to Frontlines after they removed 40 man
solid hinge
fl was fun
ya
I played a lot of it at some point
frontlines on amiens
amirite bois
sacred junco
and with these more competitive and smaller modes map design is even more important
rough smelt
@solid hinge why yes, I do enjoy biting the bullet constantly :u
solid hinge
fl amiens is the only map where I don't bother with SLRs
rough smelt
I just hope... they don't waste time making stupid game modes for BFV
sacred junco
But they are
rough smelt
no fucking shit like war pigeons or that squad drop shit
sacred junco
Airborne doesn't work in Narvik imo
sacred junco
never even played it
solid hinge
buy bfv when they've fully polished the game
rough smelt
^^^^^^
sacred junco
dunno what it is like lol
rough smelt
no way in hell am I buying day 1
solid hinge
basically you run around like an idiot on the map
supply drops
capturing supply drops as if they were flags
solid hinge
demolition without the bang
rough smelt
all BF games need, Conquest, frontlines, operations/rush, tdm, domination
that's all
solid hinge
and uhh, without demolition. Because the supplies drop in at random locations
rough smelt
no random idiotic shit that will die on day 1
rough smelt
that would be stupidly hilarious.. and actually could work?
solid hinge
he says as he screams wakanda forever as he charges in with his wooden stick
sacred junco
its probably work at best as a limited time mode
for one map
DICE shouldn't bother to make modes for all maps
solid hinge
one thing I don't want to return
conquest assault
as fun as I said Somme was
im not interested in any more conquest assault maps
though, if they wanna add them. Fair enough
i'll just uhhh, play Firestorm
sacred junco
conquest assault is harder to balance I think
-How easy it is for defenders to defend the first point
-How difficult is it for defenders to defend after losing their first defense
A lot of games end up feeling like where you are deadlocked at the first cap and after breaking thru offense is at an advantage
Game is very dependent on the first few minutes
solid hinge
thats true, I just feel like with the way the map has been designed
it favours regular conquest alot more
sacred junco
on how fast the offense can breakthru before the tickets even out
Even Karkand is kinda garbage at 64 players
Nade at Karkand
solid hinge
not saying it doesn't have to be historical accuracy
accurate*^
just would like some kinda balanced shit every once in a while ๐ฆ
sacred junco
Wake Island is conquest assault as well
Don't remember how well it translated in BF3
sacred junco
conquest assault usually work better if attackers had more vectors of attack but still allowing defense to make reasonable maneuvers to hold onto a majority
Caporetto would kinda work if a wasn't such a chokepoint
vague flame
Wake island on BF3 was the best
solid hinge
battlefield 3 in general
was mental
Caporetto would kinda work yeh
Somme kinda works, it just depends on what sort of players you're teamed up with
wary mason
the heck
tight kettle
who else seen jackfrags video
rough smelt
haven't looked at it yet
tight kettle
no royale something is the title
he claims it's lacking content, naming co-op and battle royale. was BF1 released unfinished or was it lackign at launch? Didn't hear people talk about it that weay.

TTK IN BO4 IS SO HILARIOUSLY SHIT
If I found the guy who made this stuff walking in the street
I wouldnt fucking hesitate to show him how many bullets a gun takes to kill a person
Heโd be on the other end
icy sluice
4 headshots
solid hinge
does origin access premier come with battlefield 5 deluxe edition or standard ?
wild oxide
It comes with Deluxe Edition
solid hinge
alright cool, do you think it is a great deal ?
steep radish
Eggs dee 4 headshots
@solid hinge Hey in BF it is a good deal because it isnt as shitty as BO4
wild oxide
If you're not sure whether or not you want BFV, it is definitely a great deal
solid hinge
im %200 sure i want bfv
@steep radish also i played both games and are both are great xP
wild oxide
Yeah what you can do is get Origin Premier for the first month, and then buy the full game if you really want.
Or you can keep Premier if you feel like you're going to play the rest of the games it comes with
You can see what Premier comes with in this link
solid hinge
thanks, also what if i buy origin premier for the first month as you said and got early access and deluxe edition bonuses , then i buy the standard edition of battlefield v
do i still keep the deluxe edition bonuses ?
