You know what? I like the new TTK idea
Just to spite me Im sure
No, I forgot how annoying getting crossmapped was
Ttk now has cost us a nice population drop.
snipers are still just as effective
Dont run in the fucking open like a brainlet
I wasnt.
Can't get mad if someone had the proper aim to get the shot on you
Exactly
maybe they’re hopelessly trying to play as medic and can’t fight back at long range
I was thinking of a cold war gone hot game where nuclear weapons are used but the ramifications are so bad they never use another one ever again
I literally wasn't. I was inside a house in C rotterdam
the impossible
U can get the proper shot now but not the kill
in a house that had windows most likely
In C
and there was a angle they got you from
You know where C is in rotterdam?
zomg someone killed you with a gun nerf all guns to 1 damage
Yeah, a bullshit angle and I had no chance to shoot them back
I was already dead
I live in C on rodderdam
@merry ivy So DICE then decides to pin the medi down flat on its stomach and ferosiusly rape the shit out of it by introducking teh new TTK
Well since you died, that should tell you that spot wasnt as safe*
Medic: can I get a carbine please?
DICE: Oh, I forgot about you. No, you haven’t suffered enough. moves closer
Medic: screams in 12 damage
Medic: okay, can I please get some anti tank equipment
DICE: Good god, you have explosives at all? That can’t do, all you get from now on is decoys and lures
Anyone want a El elimine bf42 map remake?
Medic: why do we have so many bullets for our secondaries but barely any for our SMGs?
DICE: Fair point, you should only have 1 magazine for both guns
DICE when blanacing the Medic class:

just had my first bf crash
Get them when playing on Ultra
But my PC for some reason really dislike me
Dislikes
I think by the end of BFV’s life cycle, the Medic won’t even have guns and their revives will take just as long as squad revives
What are you retarded
and their smokes are replaced with flashbangs
Lol
Ye
Imagine the Assault in BF4, with Flashbangs, Smokes and the UMP 9 in like 7 different flavours, thats teh Medic class in BFV
You have to resupply it
also the UMP9 has a decent recoil pattern
BFV medic guns are either peashooters or shaking around harder than a Cromwell at full speed scaling Gibraltar
lol
played around more and fuck this new TTK
lewis gun is a peashooter at its intended range
this change is only good if you're a Suomi or MMG main
its fine
Exactly
Im not having any issues with the lewis gun
@pliant geyser ItS FiNe
I'm capable of tracking people just fine with the Lewis gun, but it feels so awful to put a headshot and so many torso shots just to have 'em go back in cover and heal
and before you tell me to "just headshot"
try to do this at a range where horizontal recoil and spread actually matters
it doesn't matter in close range
I like the idea of the reduced ttk, but they went too far on certain guns
Not that I don't agree, but I far prefer the Bren gun for actual accuracy.
They went to far when the ignored Players' outcries for them to keep it
But that Esports player just really want to rek more people with teh Suomi
I can agree with that coutin
some guns needed a ttk change some didnt
mostly assault guns did
lmgs and mmgs were fine
Yeah all the outcries huh?
For every one person I see that likes the new TTK, there are 20 that don't
medic guns needed a boost
Vocal Minority Korey
Those posting on forums and on reddit dont make up most players
Go to hell
its the truth
we have no way of knowing how these changes are making most of the players feel only people that will know is dice by looking at the new data
The people that actually talk about the game, are the ones that care about it, are the ones that should be catered to.
mainly average playtime seessions
Ideally that is how it should work but its not how the world works korey
you have to account for the entire playerbase
tHoSe pOsTiNg oN FoRuMs aNd oN ReDdIt dOnT MaKe uP MoSt pLaYeRs
https://ih0.redbubble.net/image.481016218.3024/flat,750x1000,075,t.u1.jpg
I highly doubt the slowly diminishing playerbase was due to the ttk though
I would assume its lack of content
Is it hard breathing anmd typing at teh same time?
That's enough of the mocking South African.
Fine
I honestly wish they just find a common place for both, ttk was too fast but now its too slow
Simple, put a survey in game, then you have a definitive answer
Of course you'll have to run it for a month for the casuals that don't actually play the game.
Bring back the old TTK and work on a new one on some sorta test server
That's why I think that they should've tackled bigger bugs first
Then mess with the TTk
I have this weird feeling that most peoples ttk complaints are related to the netcode.
they fixed it i thought?
DICC wanted to fix the TTK by increasing it to see if that fixed the TTD
And yeah, fix Netcode shit too
Netcode is pretty bad I think I constantly die behind cover.
It didnt
They keep trying to fix it, but it hasn't worked yet
I still don't get Coins in level 50
Exactly
There's been like 2 patches for it
I thought I was the only one
Zuid afrika?
Maybe they should start there
I get a whole ton of different icons though dont know what half of them are.
Ja
Fixing the netcode would honestly solve a ton of problems
A dev
gibonez whats up with you man
Multiple devs
im just playing devils advocate.
Look at the TTK
saying the ttk situation is really not as bad as some make it seem.
LOOK HOW THE MASSACRED MY TTK
The new TTK needs balancing
it had a higher ttk than even this last patch
and people were fine with it
"im just playing devils advocate./trying to be as edgy as possible"
hehe
BF4 had a higher ttk than BF5 and it's one of the most remarked games of the series, but TTD worked lol
no it didn't lol
Exactly
Better than BF5, right now I mean
Not on launch ofc
BF4 has the second lowest TTK in the series
on launch it was even faster
bc it had BF3 damage models
What's the fastest?
BF3
AEK is like the Open Beta STG44
BFH launch of you wanna count it
no open beta STG 44 is basically SAR-21 lol
Yes
with a 4BTK min
And?
SAR-21 is one of the slowest guns in BF4
Just fucken get to cover
I liked that BF5 doesn't have any of these cancer guns, they all feel good
hmmmm
Except a million variables that go with that too lol
BF5s cancer guns havent come out yet
Like the horrible Netcode
Yea netcode fixing should be priority #1
BFV already has cancer elements, it's just not in the guns
Priority 1 should be teh Double Loading Icon
pretty sure once thats fixed even if they keep the ttk people will not complain
That shit gives me the kanker
Like Kht?
soldier visibility
if you abuse it it's cancer, and it's easy to accidentally abuse
BFV is Where's Waldo: the FPS
#1 Double Loading Icon
#2 Anti Aliasing Off setting
#3 Netcode(Basically Number 1 because #1 and #2 are super easy fixes)
UI should be close to the top of the list, but from what I've been told it's impossible to fix
You fix soldier visiblty by removing Anti Aliasing
Lamp Posts become invisible if you go back far enough because of the Anti Aliasing
That shits cancer
I don't have issues finding soldiers
I am playing on a bigger screen than most people though
except in BFV instead of soldier glow they decided to make everything else blurrier than the soldiers
27 inch vs your typical 24
Niccc
KHT part of the problem is not lack of soldier glow but DICE's insistance on stupid graphical effects like dust or snow constantly kicking up from surfaces
every daam map
there is either paper, or snow, or something just randomly flying in the air for no reason
I play Verdun, and that game doesn't have any type of dorito
Wow that guy is really well hidden, probably doesn't help that Twitter compresses images, but still pretty hard to see
I don't have problems seeing people there
I dont use the Rare Customization for my Soldier, I pick Camofalge over it
I hide in place sight on Fjell
its the graphical touches always adds coutin
yeah, that's what happens when you let artists design the game first
Fjell is the worst map in the game
I like it
Fjell is one of the worst maps in BF, period
I like fjell ffs
yea in BF history
I like all the maps except Aero
And only in Breakthrough
yep, all my games have been roughly 2.5-3 kdr
I sent you a friend invite btw Doodie head
I'm just glad that Camos actually make a visible difference, cause in BF4 the camos were so washed out. The only ones you really noticed was the DICE LA camo.
Yeah your soldier was white as #fffffff
accepted
I just need the rocket strike for the helmet now
Its real good looking
Wear with with Feiled Threat Torso and Silver Dagger/Hades pants*********************
Look awesome
BF1 visibility already makes me sad, and it's still pretty playable
BFV visibility is worse than ArmA
OMG DUDE YES
Ah good old Arma, walk a KM or two just to get taken out by an enemy who had been camping in the same spot for like 3 hours because the Game Master hates you.
Yeah
mfw BFV visibility is worse than actual milsims
yeah, that was an extremely painful 30-5 with the Lewis Gun
I loved playing Zeus in Arma 3
can't wait for Breakthrough Core to come
it's 6, but my KPM wasn't ideal
Oh yeah 6
Prettymuch the same KD I had before TTK
I was getting paranoid about cheeky bastards back-capping us
so I camped the same spot for a while
then when I leave it's when 5 people start zerging for the back-cap
If DICE tones down all the silly visual effects like snow kicking up randomly, or the confettii or the dust peoples complaints of visibility would disappear.
I'm a dumbass who charges points without checking my corners so my KD is not great. Like 1.5 or something
im not talking about from explosions
MMGs are ideal for this new TTK because of their extremely high rate of fire
Well tahst more than 1 word, but MG42 is still god tier for zerging
it's prolly what I should've been using
because this Lewis Gun feels goddamn awful with 7 BTK
if I didn't care about actually winning the match I would've tried to farm kills and leave another flag defenseless
bring back the days when 800x600 still has very playable visibility
do people still do that thing where they play at 4:3 resolution to make player models look wider
afaik only CS:GO players do this
Check in Screenshots btw, thats what my Assault lookslike
anyone here want free AC oddyssey Google is giving it away for free right now
I wish theyd make 720p 240hz Monitors
When you get your first kill with the flare(0_0)
But in a combat situation where its life or death, he is the most ferocius mf on the battlefield
Gunning down people left and right
Does shit youd pray to forget everynight
Visiblity in verdun
why are the main servers being used for testing
maybe they should test how the playerbase would react to having all guns being replaced with nerf and super soakers
but its just a test so its justified
I think they thought that BFV wouldnt need a Test Server because everything is server based now
Sights in Verdun are another fuck you lol
they’re trying reaaaaaaally fucking hard to shake off as many people as possible from this game
if I didn’t know better I’d say its an experiment to see how badly you can fuck up a game’s release
TTK is not that bad :P
its bad because barely anyone asked for it and they only seem to be doubling down on it by giving everyone who doesn’t like it a watered down hardcore
great for people who tolerate it, I guess, but whoops for trying to not divide the playerbase
It's not unplayable though
Its just frustrating
I actually had alot of fun playing it earlier today
With the G43 and the Selbstlader
Medic is completely unbalanced
Thats cancer
Yeah, and its still not bad
Isnt teh G43 a 5 mag gun
IN SEMI AUTO
TTK is horribad if you're used to ranged weapons like Lewis, Bren, any Recon SLR, etc.
Yeah, I got like 50-10 games with it
Arent there just 5 bullets in a G43
no its 10
No 10
And its 4 bullets after 30m
I found most of the time the enemy could simply walk away unharmed
because all I could do is take away a quarter at a time
maybe if I typed out “pew pew” in chat I would do slightly more damage
I had no problem taking people out
Christmas sales
oh yeah, the backlash they got is gonna absolutely help sales
The normal average Joe doesn't care about TTK though
so they try to make their game easier to boost sales
We were talking about that earlier
because fuck a challenging game and having to learn how to play
And that's why its for christmas sales?
next all guns take 30 mins to kill an enemy because dying in an FPS is frustrating
The old one was not perfect, this one is not perfect
An in between would be perfect
the old one was at least slightly BALANCED
Because the new one was rushed for christmas
There are far bigger problems in BF 5 than TTK, mainly unbalanced classes and lack of content..
Yep
yeah so they should remove all the guns
Assault for instance needs a stupid nerf
they werent
because new players are spawning in and getting killed, its unacceptable, remove all weapons and churn will decrease
I even thought Medic was fine with the old TTK after they buffed the SMGs
They were
Assault needs some of his toys taken away and given to other classes.
MP40 is the worst weapon to use for close range as Medic and yet I still absolutely shredded with it
taking 1v2's with both people facing me
I have done the Tidse of war V1/ Jb-2 rocket thing twice and it did not count
now MP40/Sten are the worst choices. Not enough DPS to chunk through bullet sponges.
sticky nades = go to recon, piat = go to support
this should be a nice game about building snowmen and saying nice things, getting killed is frustrating and leads to increased player churn
remove all damage
Give support infinite rocket ammo, yes.
how did BF3/4 ever become so popular when the TTK was low in those games lol
You know you're just being petty at this point :P
Because the Net code worked properly
maybe it's because people are actually willing to improve, to learn from their mistakes
so I call BS on DICE's assumptions that dying too fast is causing player churn
how is this fine
Both are
Just remember that Assault and medic were once the same class for a time.
Netcode was so bad in 3 and 4
still getting one hit to the toe by a STEN at 100 metres and yet I have to fire 4 shots with a 10 round semi auto to get a kill
very cool
Remember the M16A3/AEK assault-medic
Not fire 4 shots , you gotta land 4 shots lmao
It's still better than BF5s
yeah fair point
Recon should have dynamite though.
AEK is basically the Automatico of BF4, except you have to ADS.
What's the problem with hitting now
That much I agree.
give semis back to medic 😤
tbh yeah it would be totally fine if Medics at least got some carbine weapons
Right now, a 2 throwing knife recon is pretty depressing.
I had a lot of fun in BFV unexpectedly. I didn’t expect it to last a week the way I churn through games. Sad to see how it turned out. Doubt it’s the devs fault just the suits looking for more money on the holidays.
or even just semi-autos
now now, medics can’t be viable, nerf their SMGs to half damage, revive as long as squad revive, and smokes replaced with flashbangs
It amazes me that people complain that the Tiger tank is too slow...
does that look fast to yall
yep, if i hard started with game with this ttk my kd would be closer to 3
Tiger 1 is not slow, but decent speed is achieved on flat well made roads
they can move surprisingly fast
the tank triangle is a flawed concept
just because it has good armour and gun does not mean it has to be a slow tank
but it would probably be broken otherwise
Is anyone else getting this? https://forums.battlefield.com/en-us/discussion/171011/tides-of-war-look-up-glitched
also just because a tank has no armour and barely any firepower does not mean its fast
cough bob semple
ok
I don't have any issues with faster moving tanks, maybe if their reverse speeds were the current slow speeds.
I hope the Bob Semple is never added, it would break the game
is op
Bob Semple would be better than a V-1
Semi or auto version?
semi
M1A1 is ugly
Wait so now there's going to be
- Core
- Softcore
- Hardcore
who knows at this point
Talk about splitting your playerbase :/
m1a1 is solid af
Hmm.
im probably averaging 2.5 kdr with new ttk
M1A1 is pretty OP by itself
I was really against using the m1a1 for awhile cause it seemed like everyone and their mama was using it.
im still around my 4-5 kd average but I find the slow TTK frustratng
I just want that enemy to die damnit
aaaaaaaaa
i dont really like it
i always liked fast rof semis, headshot machines
and now that ttk is higher, i just have more time to line it up
There's some nostalgia feeling to it because that was my favorite gun to use in the very first Call of Duty game.
I like having room to make mistakes too
But...
105-33 in a non bugged timer round?
just how dumb are your opponents....its like watching a stodeh video where hes literally 10 feet behind multiple enemies shooting them and no one notices him..
Don't care for watching Stodeh's videos. All his clips are him against potatoes
Gives the false impression that something is OP when its not.
unless stodeh is playng in a bad region, he wrecks
It gets stale after awhile
it does seem like his opponents are idiots though
Massive potatoes they are.
You'd think with all the dead teammate symbols around
it would mean turn the hell around
then again this is on PC so they have their own potatoes
All hail jack
Whatch fabianchills or shroud they are op
Fabian talks too much
And shroud doesn't talk at all
Say what you want they know how to play games.
Anyone else want to be able to build static guns as the support
whereever you want
stodeh plays EU, so they're less potato than US
or NA in general
he also plays on insanely good ping and has really good vision
its good
zerg all they want into my ap mines and mmg
Man I wish Support could build Pack Howitzers
like this beauty
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UcZmeeV2ygE
Oh god yes. Pack howitzers would be amazing.
Does your class need to be level 20 to use the ag m/42?
no?
What class is it for?
dunno prob assault or sniper
I have all 20 overture levels complete but I can't find the rifle
because you only get the skin
🤔
you'll get the weapon in week 4 tow
Strange... it gave the vgo immediately
you mean the skin whatever its called
Oh... nm
¯_(ツ)_/¯
I see... the rifle itself is week 4
Um
I'm like 99% sure that the M30 Drilling receiver customizations "Ghost" and "Chromed Finish" are in the wrong spots
Ghost makes the receiver shinier like Chromed Finish is supposed to, and Chromed Finish just adds white patches to the kind of bronze colored receiver
Related... the drilling is a fun gun to use
Yea
50rd mag is good
Where can I see all of its specializations?
I am not on my main pc so I cant see that
That would be really appreciated!
I don't remember liking sumoi... just got medic to 20 and I used the sten and the mp28 most of the time
aha
I am using the MP40 or 80? And it is pretty good
But I would prefer a faster firing weapon
Sumoi is probably the best close range but I like to push the range on the smgs when enemies can't see me
It is imho... thompson works the best for me
I don't think the lvl 20 weapons are the best for all the classes but the thompson just seems to kill
Thompson is the last unlockable on medic?
Yeah
bring back CTE
Anybody know which sights make a glare?
@foggy condor I pmed you the specializations
Thank you
Just the scopey scopes?
Np
=]
Probably spotting scope too
Prolly
Nupe
Wow
At least I don't think so
They should... but good to know
I've never been killed by anything with glare other than a sniper
I haven't gotten my weekly airlifts other than the Red Devil KE7 receiver and the Red Devil P38
Which I just got tonight lmfao
The Gewehr 1-5 feels so useless
Fuck Hamada conquest
My team can't even leave spawn
Sturm 1-5 is just so far above every other gun. Game has the balance of a 14 year old versus an infant. Yet again dice cant just make bf4 great again
Bf4 needs a remaster, easiky the best titke ever released yet these tards just go and make older generation based games
Ignore everything their fans say
will there be xmas sale for bfv on origin?
wow
Because sales are so low
Are you fucking serious
Yeah can get it for 50 bucks
i rly want to buy the game i have been waiting for like a year
Score is already 30 - 550
Dont
Its a little disappointing
And we lost
It has no variety
Every match is the exact same
My best is 89 kills devastation conquest, so im an avid player. And the game is absolute shite
yea its really good
Coukd fall asleep and still top leaderboards using unbalanced guns on shitty maps with rubbish movement mechanics
Assault class needs a complete rework
Panzerfaust needs to drop more it flies too straight for a historically short range weapon, damage it does is good since it was indeed powerful its just too easy to aim with, sticky nades need to be taken away and given to recon,
Imagine worryi g abojt accuracy
Its a ww2 game with lesbians runni g around
The whoke game is innacurate
@hot fable Theres always 2 or more parties arguing for the past and whats given to them now
Do the badmins ecer read this chat
If they give them bf4, people are going to complain about where the bf1 and bfv shooter types are vice versa
No they wont lol
Yes they fucking will
I jave mever heard anyone ask for ww1
Its like every game on this planet
Almost the whole community asked for ww1 look at the old posts on reddit
Got what?
I enjoy bf1 just as much as i did with bf4
I think we have to give them time until they sort the bugs out. Same case with bf4 when it was first released
Can we split British Servers from the Europe Region just to flex on the British Parliament?
BFV is the best unfinished Battlefield Game yet
The melee kills challenge is horrible
Melee weapons are broken as shit rn
Imo of you have a melee in your hands, you should run a bit faster than you do with a gun out
There's no way to catch up to enemies unless they stop
so now instead of splitting the community by who has premium and not, we are splitting the community between old ttk and new ttk servers? 

So I was playing the new panzerstorm map , I hitched a Pak 75, get behind a fortification I built and somehow placed the gun where I wanted.
I played the entire match from up there destroying vehicles and infantry from 600m away
It was then that I realized what BF 5 could be once more content , gameplay additions and stuff is added.
you mean once the beta is over?
Static weapons need to be a combat role specialty for support man
it literally is, you are the only one who can build them as engineer
Like let support manually turn a emplaced weapon, be able to build a base flat patch of dirt with fortifications then on top let him add any at gun or heavy mg he wants
wont happen
I mean A support combat role that revolves around using/ building anywhere you want / and utilizing static emplacements
They could get creative with it and even allow you to customize the loadout on at guns and heavy mgs.
Like Raffuss rounds for .50 cals when they get here, and HEsh/ HE/ Heat rounds for at guns
I mean the gameplay possibilities are huge for such a combat role or gameplay mechanics.
launching operation assignment from lvl 16 tides of war has gone awol, "added to company" nowhere to be seen, did not play grand operations to do it
say you captured an objective and the enemy is coming and you know the direction, that combat role could position an at gun where the enemy is coming fortify it and then defend.
even more "will never happen"
WW1 is dumb
we barely study that here
but i dont think americans played an important role in that to begin with
WW1 is just not a good setting for a BF game
WW2 is the optimal setting for a BF game for many reasons. Especially if they stick with faction specific weapons and vehicles.
but its just full auto heaven rn
ww2 = Balanced as hell sorta from a faction standpoint.
americans gonna have the nuke as a squad reward
A really nice asymmetrical balance.
Americans were known for their airsrtrikes in ww2 so I would imagine thats what their squad reward will be.
ww2 = no lock on missiles, analog aiming methods, armor penetration mattered for tanks.
cause that is what fucked up britain
that all makes for a fun game.
Modern times just an abrams will 1 hit kill just about any tank.
maybe when we get another axis faction?
Not because its the best tank
but because Abrams has the benefit of having the best sabot rounds
those things go through any tank like a hot knife thru butter.
just dont be butter then ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Anyone tried war Thunder ?
isnt it dead? i remember playing it 1 or 2 months ago and having awfull queue times
Tank combat in that is just amazing. I hope one day a Battlefield game will have that kind of armor system
it never will, because its more of a casual shooter than warthunder
See thats why BF is held back.
You can be a casual shooter and still have deep complex game mechanics on top.
BF games should be easy to pick up and play but have deep mechanics in the back that only those who want to can master.
A armor system like War thunder would no hinder anyones fun or lower how many people buy Battlefield games.
It's like a fully customizable UI, DICE could add it even though few people would use it
🤔 if dice wanted a realistic armor model, I'm sure they would've made one
well they are kinda going that way
with Glancing shots
and armor disabling.
I have a feeling the armor system is more complex than it is let on to be.
well armor disabling s basically you hit A : the turret to slow it down or B: the tracks to slow the tank down
or C: be a dick and go AA and shoot both
lmao if you get shot from behind as tank you should stop driving tanks
or D: Play assault and literally take down a tank single handedly
like you'll have to be way overextended
Just blow it up ez
Yea assault needs to be changed a bit
Wish it was more like CoH
just give him only 1 panzerfaust and done
Where ranged at options disable easily
on some maps its tough to cover all angles as tank though
But can rarely kill tanjs
Sticky dynamite needs to go to recon so he can do sneaky behind back stuff with it.
Piat should go to support.
i just want to land on the boat in black out
like going on rotterdam, no tanker in the world can be completely safe pushing forward
the hijacked map
I'm kind of surprised the developers didn't add a 'copy settings from past game' function
the control settings are a breath of fresh air imo lots of options.
There could be more though especially on the ui front.
btw whens the beta for bf v over? in like jan or feb?
Probably better to have a ui that makes everyone happy then let it be extremely customizable
I love that u can change FOV on console its so nice
Only thing i really want is an easier compass
recon spotting scope is a huge gameplay potential gadget.
I wish it could be used to ask Airplanes to drop bombs
best used on breakthrough
find a good position, mark whole enemy team, enjoy free ponts/win
Lose the auto spot ability but instead you can give planes a huge marker on where to drop a bomb and if they drop it near by you can fine tune where it goes
I wish you could see what other players outside squad are marking.
Air traffic controller Combat Role or something
let them finish the beta first 😃
Like yall remember Bc2 with the targeting dart ?
Could setup area scans for yourself and place markers for different squads and shit.
and locking on with rpgs
Yeah.
Co-operative tactics like that would be so good in BF5.
Broken as hell.
tbh i really hope we get more combat roles
Recon was so broken in bc2.
Combat roles should have benefits and negatives though.
Recon could get some fun ones imo.
I really am hoping for a good cqc recon.
they kinda have tho, because they lack the significant aspect of the other
Recon- Commando combat role- Suppressed SMGS only - Sticky Dynamite - Spawn beacon
Either shotguns or smgs, I don't care.
btw when they gonna add murrica?
Dynamite might be a bit much, but it'd be nice.
Long Range sniper combat role - Increased Lense glare when standing and crouching- No lense flare when prone- No spawn beacon - 2 AP mines.
Comando would need sticky dynamite it would be so it can go behind enemy lines with the cqc smg and blow up stuff.
no lens flare lmao
That sounds like a bad time.
basically camper
only when prone
long range you'll ony be prone
It'll have the same problem as bc2 did.
not really
90% snipers camping on hills away from objectives.
anyways, i STILL HAVENT FINISHED THE V1 KILLS
I havent either
I just finished it earlier.
Got 2 in one game, 6 kills on the first, 2 on the second.
Indirect Fire combat role for support - Bolt action or SLR only - No grenades - Ability to spawn in a Pack Howitzer or Field gun anywhere you want.
Tried running with a squad instead of being the squad leader and the leader ran orders, just no bomb.
Feels bad man.
jesus nobody here played Wolfeinstein 3d ?
daam nvm
i played the first one
Wolfeinstein 3d had the best mortar system perfect for bf games
you didnt magically aim at a spot you had a grid with degrees and azimuth , when a friendly team mate throw a marking grenade you could see where on the aiming chart
thats it
you get a grid with angles and you dont magically get a map and you point and click
You have to memorize what angles are at certain ranges its hard as heck to use and requires teamplay to get accurate
no, this game is fine rn without mortars
Well, the PIAT is a mortar 🤷
they will add indirect fire at one point or another they have to its ww2
question now is how they do it
do they keep the cheap and lame click on a map system from bf1
or do they make them hard to use as they should be
dude its a casual game
there might be a fear that you see supports with ammo crates just spamming mortar rounds all day
they'll keep it easy
they better not
#1 complaint about BF1 that I can remember is the artillery truck and explosive spam
well sorry to disappoint you then
You do realize the point-and-click-system is already in BF:V, right?
khorney there isnt a problem if its hard to aim the mortar. there wouldnt be any spam they would just be hitting nothing
I dont like how the piat is useable that way honestly
guys the v1 rocket mission you have to kill the enemies yourself or you can just stay in a squad and wait to the squad leader to kill with the rocket?
Piat should get that removed and instead get Zeroing like the sniper rifles 50m,100m,150m, and 200m for better long range use
i always found the artillery trucks having more of a detrimental impact in BF1 than the mortar, because usually you had only 1-2 tanks
the second should work but peeps on reddit say only the first one does
The PIAT is really a non-issue, I maybe got killed once or twice during 50ish hours of gametime
no i know but im just not a fan of the return of map indicating where bombs hit
I am a firm believer that the more powerful something is the harder it should be to use and master.
Raise the skill ceiling by increasing complexity while having it be accessible
In hardcore games, yes. But BF:V is not a hardcore game and the PIAT isn't all that powerful.
Bf5 isnt a hardcore or a casual game.
BF5 is an accessible game that has underlying deep mechanics and strong teambased gameplay.
Bf5 isnt fortnite.
Why does everyone compare BF5 to fortnite...
Overall the piat is fine honestly since its only 2 shots
Im doing the opposite tollwut
Well, BF5 also isn't Minecraft, so what's the point?
Saying BF5 is not Fortnite thus can have deeper mechanics
The piat should do a bit more damage, since its spring loaded, the velocity sucks.
🤷
I see the piat as the ww2 version of the carl gustav
from Bc2
Have enemies fortified in a strong position, use it to soften them up
so.... about that last tides of war assignment...
Carl Gustav is an actual Anti Tank weapon, the Piat is a fucking spring loaded launcher
@shut brook Nothing wrong with it
nah I was thinking you just had to be in the squad that gets 2 kills with a V1
If you're good, you can finish the last 3-4 assignments in one game
And you need to be SL
seems so
Only the SL gets V2 kills, the rest gets assist points
I never get to play as squad leader 😦
Just request orders
meant what I thought above
90% of time youll get leader then
I just dethrone most SLs 
Yeah same lul
so I thought
Most people are way better at squad leading than me, since i forget more than half the time that i AM the squad leader
but everyone else is trying to get it and bam now everyone is barking orders when I try to steal them
^
yea let the casuals stick to their fu
fun
let the more experienced players branch out
I give most of my orders over said menu
Req order when he is bleeding out
For instance anyone here know how Hesh rounds work in tanks ?
I think you gotta equip them
The ones that's fill a tank without liquid metal?
Hesh are basically plastic explosive tank rounds, they smack the side of a tank and blow up causing no penetration instead the inside of the tank becomes the sharpnel it kills crew
Imagine if hesh rounds only killed the crew and heavily damaged tanks allowing you to steal enemy vehicles
Nah
Op
wouldnt be op since it causes less damage than ap or heat
Sweet, free tank!
it also causes Zero splash damage as it had almost no frag on it
see but you guys get what im saying right
Small things could be done to increase complexity without affecting casuals or keeping bf5 from being hard to play
I also love how the AA tanks have splash damage against planes but not against Infantry

aa tanks and aa guns should shred infantry
so I spawned in one of them reinforcment trucks with a canon on seat 2 and proceeded to pass A and onto B on Rotterdam, only guy on it, and as I pass the rail roads out comes like 5 enemies....
and a tank
I mean, okay, now you have to directly hit them
..... at first I thought it was one guy so I tried to run him over but he just s laps a mine down
then I see the 4 other guys and a tank
Slaps roof of landmine
This badboy is armed and ready to kill
But then i don't know why your AA truck with 20mm shells can't even destroy a bush, let alone a tree

Apparently for some.
because bushes are on another ethereal plane, it only looks like its there, its not
Its one of the most noob friendly bf games
how hard could multidemensional physics can be dude
Is there like a Poll or soemthing thats Ongoing for the TTK discussion?
Or shoudl I make one
No, fairly certain someone already made one.
apparently there was on the official and the majority said it was perfect as is
but we got Diced anyway
Ok well maybe theyre more inclined to listen now that everyone is upset?
BF4 is hard to play
Can we please add Suppression to snipers then If they keep this awful TTK?
Filthy Casuals
Npt BFV
The rumors are that they made the decision over metrics in-game that are not open to the public
Yeah
its that "Customers don't always know what they want" thing
not rumors, they said it themselves
Ye
So do you guys know of an ongoing Poll?
Or should I make one
suppression should be super good and not allow snipers to shoot back, but it should be a combat role for machinegunner and for mmgs only
well they already did..... and I feel there just gonna keep it for a while
CTD isn't out yet right?
With a rating of the Old TTK, Rating of the New TTK and a questionnaire about if they should bring back the old one, keep the new one, or find a middle ground between the old and new
I think they just yeeted it in for testing...
Im sure they did
just let them sort out that goddamn issue
But when they see all the POSITIVE feedback im sure they r gonna KEEP IT!
im sure they'll have it by the end of next week
Yep
they don't need a poll south african
They are currently looking at player data
Looking at Average playtime before disconnect.
If player retention goes higher and average playtime grows vs before then new ttk is here to stay
here I am just waiting for Breakthrough Core.
lewis gun gameplay felt goddamn awful
it felt normal when using the Suomi
and my Suomi isn't even specialized yet
MG42 all the way, boyyyys, who needs a lewis gun anyway?
I might as well quit the LMGs and use MMGs lol
IMO MMGs are more of a challenge to use anyway
very few opportunities to use them effectively
but when you can bipod them they work wonders
Is it just me, or does the Spotting Camera seem VEEEERYYY good?
or if you get in shotgun range to hipfire them down
Well, I feel like the MMGs did actually profit from the TTK changes as you can drop down and just mow them down before they kill you
@rugged totem It's definitly super useful
I mean, what else can they do.
stop this madness of the new TTK
I mean, it's not gonna allow you to rush in, drop and kill everything, but at longer ranges it gives you a fighting chance if someone starts firing at you
it's the weekend now. DICE ain't gonna take further action until Monday
@west plinth Yeah, on Fjell it's insane if you have other pilots or someone who has it equipped, and you can run the the stuka B-2 with 4x50kg bombs to snipe large groups
many people here in my region stopped playing BFV because of the new ttk change
I think my best game before the TTK changes was with the VGO on Fjell Breakthrough. Went on an epic flank for 22 killstreak to capture Point A at the start of the match.
@rugged totem Exactly why I love snipers running the spotting scope. 😉 Seeing infantry with the StuKa got easier after the patch, but getting a general idea where enemies are before starting a dive is soooo damn valuable
then proceeded to go 49-6
Also ew, StuKa B-2... B-1 is my boy
I did 5-6 5+ man bombing runs in one game thanks to it, so i think it is really undervalued atm
anyone know the origins of the "red devil" skin pieces?
ive been getting that red skin randomly and i don't know how
huh, can they at least announce that we receive it for X reasons
It's kind of explained in the DE description.
20 Weekly Items with Airlift: Receive vital supplies with 20 weekly Airlifts, each containing one customization item.
The "vital" part is kind of exagerated, but that's it
I meant that'd be nice to be notified we received that devil skin because of deluxe edition
It's marketing 🤷
like, there's nothing ingame that indicates that It is because of the deluxe edition, its just "red devil, rare"
thats it
like, at least make a pop up when I log in
meh, anyway we're beta testing the game at our expenses so 🤷
It's just a skin. One I don't even use. There are much worse problems with this game... much, much worse...
Obviously but that menu is very badly designed and yeah i'd like it to be reworked at term
i've gotten used to it but damn, its so shit and you barely get any infos on anything, even weapons stats
why do i have to search for spread sheets on reddit huh ?
w/e
There was one game that surprised me a lot with integrated stats and graphs
How do you get a plane behind you in bf5? It seems like i can't shake them no matter what I try
World War 3, that's actually what Battlefield 4 should have been, ironically.
WW3s integrated stats were nothing but smoke and mirrors tho. They didn't really represent anything and were just placeholders
It's very, very bugged and unbalanced, but the gun customisation and stats is brilliant
And the game is utterly dead, unfortunately
Are they really just placeholders? Damn, it does look good, though.
kinda reminds me of that gun stats page somewhere
Symthic, that's it
very complex site, but so interesting
Symthic stopped with BF1, shame.
They haven't really, they just didn't add it to their overview yet. The raw data is in their forums for BF5
Lewis is OP
This TTK/TTD issue has me so aggravated that even Destiny 2 looks more appealing... yes, I'm that desperate for a good shooter.
maybe even COD:WW2 with all the campers and rushers sounds better right now
Anyone?
Well I created a Poll
Just because I had nothing better todo
https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/YRRRRXS
Spread it far and Wide boys
the real reason that good players hate this TTK change is because it reduces their individual ability to meaningfully turn the tides of a 32v32 match
like yeah, they're still gonna go on killstreaks regardless because they're better than other players, but they often have to avoid groups of front-facing enemies because they have less time to bounce back cover after spending time to kill one or two guys.
see Planetside 2 and how obnoxious the zerg meta is with its 8-bullet-to-kill average
I played a bit of Palnetside 2 at one point
does the tides of war work on conquest core
@snow crater should still do
ok
Unless it's bugged like normal
Actually you're right Blue, the new ttk promotes zergs a fair bit more
headshots aren't gonna change anything. No shit you should go for them no matter the TTK because it helps kill faster, but it isn't always feasible when you're contending with horizontal recoil and spread at range.
Which pisses me off more than a lot of other shit
it was extremely difficult for me to handle a rush of 4-5 people down a corridor today because of the amount of time I spend to kill one guy, even with a headshot applied.
this is with the Lewis Gun
yeah, I came to the conclusion that a combination of TTK + movement is directly correlated with how effective zergs are
it's possible for a buncha bullet sponges to just bust through a choke to overwhelm enemies in numbers, because they don't have time to kill every single guy passing through
WTF IS THIS DICE???
https://gph.is/2Cfema4
Zerging in the game is killing it. This isn't COD, but it's sounding more like it with this new trend...
BF3/4 don't have this shit because you drop people quickly. It makes defensive playstyles as viable as more aggressive ones, which creates variety in gameplay.
Eh defeding in bf has never been a thing
Always ring around a rosey
Gotta chase dem points
it's like that in a non-linear conquest map
not so much in a map like Locker/Metro in BF4, or Suez in BF1
and it's never like that in Frontlines
That's true but when there's changes made that make it harder for the squads that decide to abandon the zerg then you're doing it wrong
Hence why i love breakthrough. But i hate the lack of vehicles or imbalance eg bombers for 1 side only
Also no panzerstorm breakthrough :(
breakthrough is like the only tyhing that I play
