Smg feels like shooting paintballs or airsoft at mid-long range

yeah you only kill people if they dont notice you
if they turn towards you,
you just die
little fjord
I can do almost as well with mg42 un-bipoded inside 15m as I can with smgs
If they don't have the range they should drop people inside 15m
old karma
I swear I must be playing a different game than other people, or maybe Im just good, but legit I've never had an issue killing people as a medic
Though I totally agree some of the guns are just pointless
But I've been wrecking with the MP40, Suomi, Sten and the Thompson
little fjord
I've been using the sten 🤷
sullen mist
I just feel like the medic class needs another weapon class mostly out of variety's sake but that's just me
little fjord
It's good... I get kills, it's pretty accurate burst fired... It's not trash.... But still think smg is a little out of balance
A carbine would be cool
old karma
I definitely think people underestimate the medic potential though
little fjord
Strategically medic is super good
old karma
Smokes to force people to push objectives, help you revive and let you close the gap for your weapons. The ability to self heal at any time. Super high ROF weapons
well, some of them
little fjord
The rez, infinite heal and alot of smoke
old karma
So Dice has to be careful not to overbuff them
little fjord
Smoke is so clutch in bfv
cinder radish
smoke is amaxing in BFV
old karma
hip fire is definitely what you want to be going for with the SMGs though
little fjord
People don't understand how much you can control the battle with smoke
old karma
Like I gave up the big mag on the Thompson for the ROF and hipfire upgrades
its rare that I lose a 1v1
cause i can just pump out ridiculous damage before the other person can even ADS
little fjord
It's weird how tight the hip-fire is compared to bf4... hip-fire is way more accurate than in bf4
old karma
Its not as insane as BF1 though
the class that gets the most benefit from hipfire is definitely the medic class

little fjord
I guess with the short ttk in bfv, not ads-ing is a big deal for getting the kill
Face to face
old karma
It absolutely can be, though it also depends how you play to be fair
Not having to ADS with the Thompson plus its like 900rpm lets me melt people before they can act
Sorta like having a shotgun
little fjord
Definitely saving some cc for the Thompson
I was super surprised with the mg42... so I have high expectations for the Thompson
old karma
The new Vickers K isn't terrible either
its a middle ground between the MG42 and the 34

Me and a friend a couple days ago were in a heavy tank we were killed by a KE7

the anti-tank gun
solid hinge
how it is
old karma
Yeah I dunno why they dropped its damage on planes
little fjord
I didn't realize it got nerfed
old karma
Im pretty sure tanks cant even 1 shot planes anymore
sullen mist
I would like to test that out but having a limited number of tank shells has made me very weary of where I aim my shot

Churchill with the 90mm mortar but you completely forget it has rubbish velocity so you end up lobbing a round 5m away from the enemy

Biggest issue Im having with the Tiger is people jumping on me and licking my roof because I have the Last Tiger skin
so I constantly have people standing on me

I’m still waiting to see someone with a Last Tiger skin
I have it but I had to do the thing where you save your save data to a USB and then delete the other one and redo said war story and blah blah
Sad how this is bug is affecting everyone
Well from what I’ve seen anyway
old karma
I had an issue too
Where it said I didnt have all the letters even though I did
all I had to do was turn off cloud saves, move the settings file somewhere else, redo the letter collection, then put back the settings and turn on cloud saves
I know, EASY right?
EA support didnt even tell me how to do it
It was some random on Reddit

Hello, I am new to the discord and I am unaware if this is the right channel to post this; however I'm having a glitch where, whenever I load into a map my current tides of war assignment doesn't get any progress.
I am at the build a snowman stage/kill one enemy with a stationary weapon. I have done both (multiple times each) and no progress towards either.
Is there any available information to fix this issue?
I'd like to add, instead of showing the "build a snowman" assignment it shows the "heal yourself 10 times" (first assignment of tides of war)

God Dice, please. The double loading screen of fuck you is so annoying
The hotfix thing coming soon better address that, its bugging me having to reload the game every match

Like a good streamer said once: "You need to keep people ingame, not in menu"
charred heron
Sometimes the main menu won't render properly
Which is pretty sad since it's mostly pre-rendered
Oh, and sometimes Narvik doesn't load properly and you can see stuff under the snow you shouldn't really see
Or the map in the spawn menu is just a mishmash of unloaded sectors
dire quiver
I supposedly already unlocked the VGO, but I still don't have the option to equip it
Is it because I'm still support level 6?
Or is it a glitch?
charred heron
You have to redeem it in the Arsenal

Are the sales really that bad though? On PS4 I can see nothing but full servers, I can see the sales not being as good but nothing terrible
charred heron
I only see full servers but i never see empty ones, even when i specifically search for them 
plush flume
I don’t use the advanced search, it’s to confusing this time around. Especially for a Australian server. Japan servers have pretty good ping so I just join them if I can
charred heron
@dire quiver If you unlocked the weapon, it should appear in the arsenal in the same section where you redeem skins you got from assignments

Hey guys i have a question. I almost hit rank 50 but heard you can’t get company coins after that(before the patch). What’s the current situation now?
dire quiver
@charred heron I'm still not getting it tho
Probably a bug
Hmm, I'm not sure about the company coin situation since I'm still rank 25

Confirmed you can't

@solid hinge that used to be a bigger issue than it is right now

the only way currently are daily orders
solid hinge
Im worried cuz people are saying it hasn’t been fixed although it was in the patch note
gray glade
i had that issue where i would literally get 0 cc when i was level 50, but after patch i actually get it
i havent measured how much tho
solid hinge
That really sucks

so its definately improved
if you are worried, don't buy too expensive cosmetics until you can measure it 😃

they need to rework bombers i think they r too useless now
charred heron
Nah
solid hinge
but i just got upgrade for my seat switching to be heavy machine guns so i will see how it goes
the allies bombers are so boring to play but i cant wait to get the ju-88 thing that goes under the plane to kill infantry
charred heron
Just because you can't spam 4x500kg bombs in less than 2 seconds doesn't mean they're useless
solid hinge
i think the main thing for me its basically impossible to see ground targets
charred heron
And the Ju 88 with heavy passenger MGs works neat as a reverse AC-130
@solid hinge Get a spotter in the ground
solid hinge
yea im solo player most of the time lol
but ur right
i would pick spotting camera but those tech trees suck
charred heron
Better you have a squadmate on the ground who keeps spamming those yellow arrows for you
Or the red ones when it's a tank or something
Works wonders
solid hinge
yeah exactly
charred heron
And a properly manned Ju 88 with heavy passenger MGs shreds planes
And Infantry If you fly calmly
solid hinge
i wonder if there is gonna be a sherman upgrade with that beehive nest of rockets on top of it
have u tried the actual ac130 upgrade for the ju-88
charred heron
Callilope?
solid hinge
no idea lol
charred heron
Google it
swift condor
The seat switching in bombers is too much
compact oxide
There should be a 5 sec animation for it like everything else
swift condor
I hate chasing bombers and shooting them until my guns overheat and they just switch seats and shred my plane with five bullets
dawn lava
@solid hinge thats a game i played last night, i do agree they nerfed them alot but if you know what youre doing you wont have any problem :p
i went 92-2 in the JU
couldnt post a picture here
the problem now is the cooldown, however you dont have to use all the bombs in a single run
drop all 4x500kg bombs, go resupply and in your way back drom all 16x50kg bombs
by that time your 4x500 will be available so you just do that
swift condor
I mean I drop 2x250 bombs on infantry and get the worst thing that could ever happen to someone
Enemy hit 94

no offense to this girl, but she doesn't strike me as a history buff, and she certainly seems to have received the wrong impression of the war story
unless I'm alone in thinking there's nothing about The Last Tiger that suggests that German soldiers were blameless and noble
opaque hinge
Some people come in with preconceived ideas and its impossible to change their minds
They just decide that "this is how it is"
opaque hinge
As in, she decided that German soldiers were blameless and noble before she played it
solid hinge
@woven lake this ^
holy shit i just finished the last tiger i hate schoder so much what a little bitch
hes literally the annoying lookalike in chronicles of narnia but he doesnt turn out good later
germans lost cuz the allies they had a reason to win the war and the axis were all depressed
there's certainly more to it than that, but the fact that they began to become disenfranchised as the war came to a close definitely did nothing to help their spirits
yeah with everything there is more than one factor
Lmao what? The Axis lost because they were depressed?
they had no reason to fight they didnt have the emotional will
its like fighting for someone u never met
I think it's more appropriate to say they began to suffer from low morale
The Axis lost because Germany tried invading Russia in the winter, and because the Americans fucked up the Japanese.
They had low morale because they were losing...
indeed
They didn't lose because of low morale
That's insane lol
there is never just one factor
well we musn't be mocking in our corrections, that's not exactly intellectual
Shit, the Germans gave soldiers meth. They weren't depressed, they were off their tits.
they caged up germany as monster and he got angry and lashed out
after world war 1 treaty yes
if everything was grey and it was like no emotion everyone is robot you gonna lose
germans r robots at least most
i am german and i say it
solid hinge
the moral of the story here is don't be a control freak
and don't murder millions of people, I suppose
or if u wanna be control freak do it properly
solid hinge
me too
shadow dirge
so the soldiers had their own personal kinds of blitzkrieg, eh? lol
solid hinge
like kertz and the commander in last tiger they r cool but schoder is just a robot
Müller fed him the line, tho
solid hinge
yeah but its his fault for having no brain
he's like 'oh, he's just a boy' but he kind of awakened the fanatic
there's something to be said for very impressionable young people
gentle forge
Bulleta through the wall is fun
solid hinge
I mean he looks to be about 18
he was raised wrong
if u discipline them so much they turn into schoder
we're all still malleable at that age, and we can't really relate to the fact that he's also a soldier for a dying cause
as you said earlier, there's more than one cause for everything
yeah his father beat him
you don't know what you'll believe when your country is literally burning around you
I'm not apologizing for Nazis, but Müller isn't blameless in giving him Party lines

Most people don't use their classes properly

yeah medic is incredibly bland

Any reason i cant find any panzerstorm maps?
shut brook
don't get me wrong playing medic is plenty fun
pale spade
And my god the throwing knives are so fucking fun
solid hinge
they are
the smoke is so glitchy in this game, i dont know if its wind or what but if i put it on a downed guy and i go in for revive 3/4 of the time the smoke wont be over us
shut brook
running around throwing down smoke to revive people
solid hinge
at least for smoke rifle this happens to me
shut brook
you like that kind of game play it is good
random dust
i got it now.
grave loom
Smoke seems really effective in this game
random dust
had to restart BFV a couple times.
shut brook
but fuck I do not like the SMG
slim echo
i like hipfire mp40
pale spade
I’d argue that smoke is the most effective grenade in the game.
shut brook
I'd be happy to just have a weak shotgun for medics at this point
charred heron
I think what bugs me the most about the Medics are the revive animations
I get it, immersion jare jare
random dust
oof... a bunch of 1-life objectives...
charred heron
But i personally like to move fluently and quick over the battlefield
shut brook
uh.... patting some mates back and saying some motivating words for 5 seconds can revive someone
charred heron
And slide reviving in BF1 was just pretty neat without losing my momentum entirely
shut brook
what immersion?
pale spade
I think if the player was given control over their movement sooner it’d be fine
But being fixed to that location for that long is insane
charred heron
And there's nothing more frustrating than getting punished for reviving someone
Because it's totally skilled to fire at someone who can't fire back and where it's always too late to cancel the animation 
pale spade
I like the animations personally, they just need work
shut brook
yeah but, being able to judge if the revive is safe or not is part of the meta tho
pale spade
^^^^
pliant geyser
im happy the recon has super big lens flare
pale spade
Rather have a good medic that knows when to rev than a rambo that dies trying every time

iron sight recon best recon
pale spade
KE7 is still too good, dont @ me
charred heron
@pale spade
pliant geyser
the classes are all borked though, bolt guns should be for all classes, especially medic, scopes should only be fore recon including 3x
pale spade
Shit.
charred heron
shut brook
I feel so dirty when I make a head shot with that thing
charred heron
I don't get it why Assaults get mostly better version of SLRs while the Medics get worse versions of SMGs
When compared to BF1
pliant geyser
yea
shut brook
and medics only have SMGs
pale spade
Whats everyone’s favorite assault gun?
shut brook
where everyone else gets to choose
pliant geyser
Assault should lose the 3x scope
shut brook
still like... level 12 for assault so
SMLE is nice
with the quick reload clip that thing is pretty decent at countering snipers
pale spade
I like the 1-5, great all around gun
pliant geyser
havent played bolt guns but aperature sights should be good sniper sights that dont lens flare.

i find it fucking hilarious that the "Domination" cover art has the british trooper with a katana on it...

so annoying you die because you can set the bipod down

Honestly, theres no reason for me to play support or medic.. I think support should be anti-tank not assault.. Like in bad company 2

shut brook
the drilling makes me forgive anything support lacks
that thing is just too fun to troll with
royal fox
I think support needs more at beyond mines, something liek at grenades which offer some range but not beyond liek 20 metres
maybe shotties should be moved to medic?
shut brook
I must have got like... 6 kills pretending to be dead and have a platoon and half walk past me
austere path
Yea move shotty to medic and anti tank to support

That actually bothers me, when I play its hard to notice people who are prone

They should also overhaul the Fortification System.
A single frag can destroy multiple sand bag walls AND hurt troops on the other side.
primal sage
IDK about anyone here knowing this...but there's not much power in a frag's explosion. Only enough to launch the deadly metal fragments. If you want high explosive power, HE grenades exist.
royal fox
maybe there should be two tiers, one is the current, a second protects against mg42, frags etc
royal fox
yea
primal sage
The only good part is building stationaries, ammo and health crates, and Resupply and Repair stations.
royal fox
they slow down pace of battle, though they can be really useful

I built up a shitload of fortifications protecting E on Devastation. I didn't want anyone coming in and just back capping it again. I thought the barbed wire and sand bag walls would be enough.

Yeah that's the thing about maps with a large area people want to take control of for kills.
grave loom
Ye ik Just sayin this chat is active rn so incase anyone saw it lemme Know lul
primal sage
They all focus on it.
royal fox
honestly a flank and a well placed nade can clear out a postion to retake a flag, you just need to plan the nade
shut brook
like what, does taking C spawn a hooker in your room or something

if you want kills just got to domination or TDM....
royal fox
play assault and yeet dynamite, that works for me

@shut brook B-but you need some kind of skill in order to get decent K/Ds in TDM
shut brook
the nade launcher is surprisingly effective

Welp the Tiger finally feels like a Tiger, at least for me it did. I ran out of ammo before the enemy ran out of tanks
primal sage
Ya'll know that elevated position?
royal fox
just throw the damn dynamite and stop complaining major
royal fox
yes
primal sage
Get a squad in there and it's like impenetrable.
royal fox
that is v true
unless u panzerfaust it
but it is a bit too difficult
they should add some stairs to it. When i first went down the stairs and it was a dead end I just felt sad
i got baited
by map design
old karma
I wish they would add the cook off visuals from the Last Tiger story, as well as people on fire crawling out of the tank
But I figure that could get confusing if people try to shoot them when they're already 'dead'
primal sage
At least the Tanks now feel different.
royal fox
better than too fast, I hated bf4 tanks

those where practically hover tanks

the other day on arras i was using my mg42...absolute crap team couldnt hold more than 2 objectives, but i had 2 instances of 4-5 kills in one trigger pull lol...how are people so bad

It would be helpful if some of you direct me where we can post images
sacred hull
bmac maybe ure the bad one

I was top of the team with something like 42-10 by the end of the match and over 2.5k score higher than the next person 😠people just cant play an objective

yeah and im the pope

I called a rocket on the D point on rotterdam last night and won the round instantly because of the multi kill lol...we had 6 tickets

really gotta appreciate how ke7 is still broken as shit
snow crater
once i got a stupid team that went only for kills, first second and third had more than 200 kills together but we still lost because the only objective we actually had was the one closest to our spawn
and we didnt have it half the time
strong parrot
i dont understand why people have a hard time getting kills and playing the objective
snow crater
m1a1 is amazing btw
with the extended mag
also PIAT vs panzerfaust
which one should i use
solid hinge
do you want to dick infantry or instakill vehicles
grave loom
depends what map imo
snow crater
probably dick infantry
solid hinge
piat then
grave loom
Piat
snow crater
also piat works as a half mortar too right
strong parrot
thursday was the first day i played since the tides of war update...first map devastation, played medic to do the stupid 10 bandages and throwing bandages thing, used mp40...top kills on the team top score by miles...we lose because no one cares to hold anything
grave loom
Yes
solid hinge
yes

Hi!
Is ToW supposed to work in other game modes as well?
Because some squad mates get progress in Domination and mine doesn't register, only in conquest? Does anyone have a solution to this problem?( I play on ps4.)
royal fox
bug
grave loom
For me it doesnt register at all at this point feelsgoodman
primal sage
The PIAT works as a mortar some what.
It'll have a mortar like icon on your minimap if you aim it, but it's slightly bugged.
solid hinge
@primal sage are you salty over the discount thing too? lol
primal sage
Sometimes it'll only show up as a measurement rather than a red dot.
Also no.
I pre ordered.
So I got my money's worth.
primal sage
I mean it's my opinion/view if I did or not.
solid hinge
I'm salty about the discount thing
tbh
😂
Same
But only cause I didn't abuse it in time
Now I'm stuck with 33% off or nothing
this has happened to me with like 3 or 4 games this year. I'm over it lmao
But I got a 15% discount for complaining to support, so I could still get it basically half price.
complaining is key to good discounts 😂
😎
austere path
when you reset your weapon specializtation at rank 4, do you get your coins back?
when*
strong parrot
lol I got the 15% code too...
no you dont get coins back but you dont have to pay to respec it
solid hinge
Doesn't work on bfv til tomorrow tho unfortunately
strong parrot
you just reset it and pick 4 again
solid hinge
Since it isn't a month old yet
primal sage
Unless you didn't buy a rank 4 specialization.
solid hinge
Discount lasts till the 10th or something tho so it's fine
primal sage
In which case you can only pick 3.
misty orchid
Anyone else ToW challenges not unlocking or completing
austere path
how do i get a discount @solid hinge
strong parrot
so its like wait a minute if i just played with premier for a month and at the last day i could have bought the game for 40% off?
misty orchid
Built snowman and game says u still need to do it and it's not tracking ammo resupply from crates
solid hinge
Complain to origin support about not getting the 50% discount
They said it was for 'veterans' and then gave it out randomly
EA is ran by stupid cunts.
mg42 mastery 5 is supposed to be the easiest assignment ever and i can't do it because i keep getting one hit at full health by people i can't see
austere path
@solid hinge even if i bought mine from bestbuy canada?
austere path
so its 15% off on a next game
solid hinge
Basically

just do it over and over until it tracks

Done it 15 times

what mode are you in?
solid hinge
grown men talking about building snowmen in a computer game
gray glade
maybe try a different game mode @misty orchid ?
misty orchid
Tides of war playlist
gray glade
join a random one, like a normal game maybe
i think you should be able to get the achievement that way as well
just remember to restart the game if you get the error
i had the same issue with stuff not completing after i did them and on the 3rd attempt it worked
solid hinge
They should the VOG to all who didn't complete hold the fort
snow crater
i swear if there isnt a D-Day grand operation i will be pissed
misty orchid
Does it stop tracking after you unlock the VGO? Maybe that's why
solid hinge
My friend didn't get it yet even after getting serveral kills with the 6 ponder and PAK 40
snow crater
@solid hinge maybe its only with the mounted machine guns?
fluid warren

I got it for blowing up an tank with the pak 40

The one in hamada maybe but the one in twisted Steel is stationary

DICE: Delay update to fix game breaking bug players: bad game shit devs DICE: release update with game breaking bug players: bad game shit devs
solid hinge
overture was their big chance to fix the things that people didn't like about the game, such as the panzerfaust being way too strong, guns like the KE7 and STG1-5 being crutch weapons for people who are bad, and bombers being way too strong
snow crater
they did nerf bombers, ke7 and the panzerfaust
they made the pazerfaust more consistant but do less overall damage
solid hinge
instead, the panzerfaust is stronger now because glancing blows do 3x more damage (thus nullifying the point of using your armor effectively), the recoil increase on the KE7 was insignificant to how fast it kills in close+mid range, the STG 1-5 got a buff, and bombers were hardly changed outside of the carpet bombing tree on the JU88 and removing the spawn bombing
snow crater
well isnt the spawn bombing what people were complaining about for the most part
split cedar
where do i find the overture emblems i've unlocked?
i know i've unlocked them but its not showing up in my emblems
primal sage
I thought that too...but they just blend in well.
zinc vale
we need infantry anti air if you want to properly balance air tbh
just having AA machine guns isn't enough compared to what the modern games have
gray glade
i reckon its the carpet bombers that are causing most of the issue?
zinc vale
Yeah
gray glade
the occasional stuka doesnt seem to be very unbalanced
zinc vale
nah it's the ju88
gray glade
but the junkers 88 🤢
zinc vale
Or more flak guns and stuff
primal sage
We need something to DETER a bomber from making a run.
zinc vale
the worst are in some GOs where one side gets planes and the other doesn't
primal sage
Or it'll end up getting KILLED.
zinc vale
Twisted Steel day 2 the attackers get planes and the defenders don't
it's cancer beyond belief
zinc vale
like I appreciate trying to make things asymmetrical but they need more flak or anything like that seriously
snow crater
and the defenders dont want to get in a situation when they have planes
because that means they almost lost
zinc vale
I loved twisted steel but that part of the GO is just sad
zinc vale
compared to Frontlines Arras right after
which is great fun
With all the trenches you can dig
zinc vale
I need to play Frontlines on Playlist more but isn't it like 16 V 16
or am I thinking of another game
solid hinge
this is bullshit man so much of time is being wasted trying to get this glitched challenge done on the last tiger
i followed this forum but even ea guys dont know whats wrong
i try one last time
snow crater
the flute one?
merry ivy
all of them mate
snow crater
or the legacy theme
dumbest things are solo queue time is like 10 seconds but even 2 people takes like 2 minutes
fluid warren
why didnt i get the assignment that you get at overture lvl 12?
snow crater
man PIAT is so fun to use
just shredding infantry
and its still pretty good against tanks and armoreds
exotic lichen
I feel dirty using the PIAT
like it's just too easy
I think the splash damage should be reduced a tiny bit
like even 10% would do
open raptor
Stationary weapon kill sucks so hard to do
snow crater
is churchill gun carrier even worth using
snow crater
also the grenade launcher is just too good
but it cant rotate
the tiger cant
can
primal sage
True.
But it fufills the same role as the Tiger, that is, outranging other tanks, and destroying buildings.
snow crater
also aa tanks are just too op
primal sage
You're probably better off staying a bit further out of combat than usual, and focusing on destroying cover and other armor than rolling right in to support.
snow crater
too accurate
primal sage
Accurate if you know how to aim them.
I'm still adjusting to using the arc.
It feels...finnicky to me.
solid hinge
fjell is great its one of my faves
light dust
It’s so bad, it’s constant sniping at C and D.
solid hinge
you go around with ur teams in pathways and have to in one great big push get into the open and cap objective
snow crater
just dont play infantry on fjel and practice your plane skills
snow crater
exactly
i never spawn infantry on fjel unless we are losing c
because you get the extra plane from it
light dust
Just wait for Air Dom.
solid hinge
if u can sneak through the massacre at the opening of the pathway, u cna flank the enemy so hard they are all focused on that choke
and yay i finished last tiger now i can see the epilogue
solid hinge
think so
light dust
When do private servers launch.
solid hinge
there is an epilogue so probably not
besides the war stories are based on NON famous events
to try and give them exposure
light dust
I just want Arras/Rotterdam/Devastation 24/7
tribal ledge
I thought this shit would be fucking fixed in BF V
solid hinge
soy u must be joking right
snow crater
devastation suxx in everything except front lines
light dust
Nope.
light dust
What? They’re the best for infantry.
solid hinge
nah u have to be one with nature
snow crater
my strategy is to blow up the bridges denying a key choke point for the attackers
light dust
I play Domination/Conquest, and for me, those three are the best.
solid hinge
i disable rotterdam and devastation and play the others
snow crater
i play conquest with a mix of grand operations
light dust
Opposite.
light dust
I never hear people complaining about those three, everyone hates Fjell and Twisted Steel seemingly.
solid hinge
battlefield game modes have always been kinda crappy in my opinion especially conquest where u just run around clockwise swapping points
and there is zero point to fortification cuz u just give to enemy
snow crater
airborne is amazing
solid hinge
yeah but the paratrooper side always loses
snow crater
not always but ye
but the paratrooper side is always smashed full of team player medics and such
solid hinge
they r soon gonna make it so everyone can plant the bomb so hopefully those game modes will be fixed
snow crater
they need to give a bonus if you destroy 2 cannons
a smaller one than all of them
destroy 3*
@solid hinge that would be dumb
maybe a bit more bombs
but that feels just dumb
solid hinge
i dont know actually if its everyone get the bomb or its the bomb holder doesnt get a massive symbol over him cant remember
snow crater
probably the latter
solid hinge
i heard it on a westie video
snow crater
i remember in the patch notes they said something about the bomb holder only gets a symbol when he dies and when he picks the bomb up
solid hinge
I have an idea for airlifts
To make them very special, let's make it so that it's a crate that gets airdropped into the map you're playing
and where only you can open them
snow crater
how do people hate fjel and twisted steel
solid hinge
is it just me or does muller look like martin freeman/bilbo baggins lol
snow crater
those are litterly my favorite maps
solid hinge
the commander
snow crater
also h3

and then when you open them it shows a special animation and then you get the items

you said the war storys were about non famous events

yes sir

I love all the maps, but Rotterdam is my fav. And always playing conquest. In fact, for me Battlefield = Conquest.
solid hinge
cuz it was about how they hid the black people and he was exposing them
snow crater
its pretty known that black soldiers from free france helped in the southern landings
regal sapphire
Yes but the story itself is made up
snow crater
ok gtg
solid hinge
but they cropped them out of photos and didnt give credit and stuff
these works of fiction aren't real? say it isn't so
under no flag was still the best war story imo
regal sapphire
That's false, the majority of french command actually didn't care about black troops, not in WW1 or in WW2
solid hinge
The Last Tiger was the best war story, don't @ me
it was sad
sad is bad
that's why I liked it
Yeah alot of youtubers said the blacks were at fault
it made me feel feelings
that pissed me off

The blacks were at fault because?

pewdiepie is great
and Logan Paul
JackFrags has this COD shooty shooty mentality
pewdiepie is the worst
he hates panzerstorm
which is a bad thing

I don't dislike panzerstorm but I also don't like it
solid hinge
battlefield is more cod than like arma or squad its casual shooty shooty game now if u ask me
regal sapphire
Atleast people aren't camping that much on it yet, then it'll be hell
solid hinge
Yeah panzerstorm fixes that entire COD atmosphere
i havent played it yet
Sure it can be better designed
haven't either
but alot of FH2 maps are like that so

Best map is Devastation for me
