closest to Rush

feelsbad when there's no Breakthrough Core yet.
spiral adder
SoonTM
compact oxide
Panzerstorm is actually the worst map in BF ever imo
spiral adder
I dodnt even realise i wasn't on a core server tbh
compact oxide
Or at least my least enjoyable
maiden steppe
Apparently some people report that they're getting thrown into normal Conquest servers despite picking Conquest Core.
spiral adder
Intil i used the ke7 and did 17 dmg per shot.
Even with medic i was melting people
compact oxide
I can play really well on the new ttk servers, but it's just not fun
spiral adder
Assault still is insanely strong
maiden steppe
That's exactly my sentiment @compact oxide
I still do well, prolly the same if not better than before
but I acknowledge its detrimental effects to the skill gap and variety in playstyles
hollow pecan
I feel like I win 1v1's with SMGs now
maiden steppe
chewing through dudes with Lewis/Bren at range is a nightmare now. You gotta peek out for so long to confirm your kill, which isn't feasible when people can be watching you from multiple angles.
echo gazelle
Zerging happens when players don't play as a squad and this crazy TTK/TTD makes them lose all encounters, so they hide in the masses. Typical attitude of those playing for the KDR. That and camping at base with a tank or as a scout... There should be a warning like in Destiny "You are too far from your team" and teleport them to the rest of the crew.
maiden steppe
zerging is a viable strat even if you are playing as a squad
hollow pecan
the one thing I see with the new TTK is far less bipod LMG abusers and I gotta admit that it's kinda nice
maiden steppe
just go and rush two dudes in a building, revive each other after the encounter
to an extent, this tactic is in PUBG
compact oxide
@hollow pecan I see WAY more bipods
maiden steppe
but it's not frequent because slow movement and 5 bullet TTK makes it easily possible to clutch these 1v2s
compact oxide
And more corner campers
echo gazelle
ah PUBG... don't get me talking about that and that future Firestorm mode..
pliant geyser
The british 95mm howitzer is super fun to use.
hollow pecan
corner campers, yes
I feel like I see less bipod LMGs in genral though
maybe I'm just lucky
pliant geyser
Wish the reticle was dynamic so I could actually aim at long range
maiden steppe
This TTK can actually work wonders in Firestorm because engagements in battle royale are small-scale, usually 4v4s.
but it doesn't fit in 32v32
echo gazelle
Yes, you're right @maiden steppe
lucid violet
True
random dust
I made a post about that the other day
echo gazelle
This is also a good TTK for TDM
random dust
I think this TTK is a precursor test for Firestorm. That's why they're forcing everyone to use it in all modes
echo gazelle
it's the lousy TTD that matters though.
maiden steppe
usually people in PUBG are 5-6 bullets to kill because on average, you're gonna encounter people with level 2 armor in the mid-late game.
it can be 6-7 bullets with level 3 armor tho, and it doesn't feel bad because, again, small-scale engagements.
compact oxide
I've felt the same, it feels like DICE are giving up with the current game and putting all future planning and hope into the BR
Like sales haven't been good enough to justify basing the game around the normal multiplayer
echo gazelle
I think Firestorm is going to arrive late
COD arrived later
and it's not really getting the same popularity
maiden steppe
Firestorm has potential to be a PUBG replacement for me.
they have very similar gunplay
echo gazelle
Fortnite will eat all the BR cake. Heck, they now have cross-platform gameplay... It's irrelevant to play any other BR game. Besides... it's free!
maiden steppe
Epic Games was just way ahead of everyone else when capitalizing on the BR trend
I still believe that DICE can garner a dedicated playerbase for Firestorm tho
hollow pecan
I hate Fortnite for their mechaincs but crossplatform play is something that I have to respect them for
maiden steppe
thing about BR is that it's the only game mode where it feels like everything you do has a consequence.
echo gazelle
To be honest... I don't like battle royale, I didn't like it when it was a simple mod for Arma 2 and it has not changed a bit. And I'm tired of this "fever".
maiden steppe
it's extremely tough to make decisions for winning consistently, let alone having the mechanical skill to execute your plans properly.
echo gazelle
I genuinely cringed when DICE announced BR in BFV in EA Play this year... so did the audience if you remember.
compact oxide
I really don't like BR, I like the whole running in, getting a few kills and dying feel
maiden steppe
what I really wanna see is how DICE handles playzone settings
compact oxide
BR ends up being a lot of surviving and camping
hollow pecan
I like the ''getting loot'' factor
maiden steppe
I mean, camping is the nature of most tactical shooters, but there's shittons of ways to flush out campers. You get lotsa nades in PUBG, and you can destroy cover in Fortnite
echo gazelle
By the time Firestorm launches, I may not even be in the game if this TTK/TTD isn't improved. But, if I am, I'm not even going to bother.
maiden steppe
If you know people are hiding in a building, then tell your squad to throw their frag grenades, stun grenades, and molotovs inside
then clear the building by entering it and watching multiple angles together
maiden steppe
yeah in BFV you could just mfin blow up the building lmao
echo gazelle
"tell your squad"... lol... dude, right now no one knows how to play squad in normal modes... you expect this to change?
wet owl
Hi Guys I have got a question, Do you know how to do the last mission for gewehr 43 mastery???
maiden steppe
I noticed that in BR games, squad play is much tighter
people are generally focused on making their loot and decisions count
90% of my public squad games in PUBG come with people who have mics
echo gazelle
What I noticed is that in BR players tend to play solo a lot. Am I wrong?
hollow pecan
I mean, I have the same feeling when I play solo in BFV, people run around like headless chickens
I feel like you have to play with a squad to have fun in BF and BR games in general
maiden steppe
According to telemetry, a vast majority of BR players play squad mode.
solo mode entertains a minority.
hollow pecan
I would never play PUBG solo personally
maiden steppe
Solo gets boring fast. You often have little control over the outcome of a match. You could do everything right and still die a lot.
Squads give you way more control of your surroundings.
people have worked their way to 75% winrates in squads (average being 4%), but the best solo players have only achieved 33% winrate (average being 1%).
hollow pecan
the only reason I'm playing BFV solo now is due to the Tides of War quests
that now has squad play missions
echo gazelle
I can play Conquest solo, but I need to either lead or have a good leader, otherwise the gameplay sucks
Operations is impossible to solo, unless you zerg
still dew
Someone wants to play right now ? My origin name is : TheBelgianIdiot
echo gazelle
same with breakthrough
hollow pecan
I don't really know much about the BFV community, I used to play BF3 on X360 before this
and BF1 with only friends
maiden steppe
Breakthrough is fun to play as a general shooting gallery.
crisp stone
its pretty minor but the fact i can put american bald eagle nose art on a british spitfire 
echo gazelle
I miss Rush a lot...
maiden steppe
If I were in a coordinated squad then I'd opt to play Frontlines, Breakthrough, or Rush (when it releases).
hollow pecan
Damavand Peak Rush
maiden steppe
Conquest is too much running laps around flags
the way you win is to defend the flags that have nobody on them
because God knows that when they get capped, the whole match falls in shambles for your team
sly pike
amen
maiden steppe
solid 3-cap defense becomes unstable, and it may lead to a 2-cap or even 1-cap
but defending empty flags is boring
so Breakthrough, Frontlines, and Rush satisfy me
you often get plenty of action no matter where you are
hollow pecan
I imagined Frontline to be something else
sly pike
so try to defend two flags, like bridge on Twisted Steel, keeps you busy enough
maiden steppe
y'see that's the thing, I'd love to try that out with a squad
but even then, it falls on the rest of your team to handle the rest of the flags.
who knows how competent they are
solid hinge
squid
hollow pecan
ranked squad rush/domination when 
maiden steppe
at least in Breakthrough you can go on epic flanks to clear out a whole flag, and that's 1 out of 2 flags successfully capped in a sector.
in conquest it's more like 1 out of 5, or 2 out of 7.
maiden steppe
Breakthrough will suffice until Rush actually arrives
upbeat cypress
what do you guys think is the next battlefield? I think its going to be Vietnam War
hollow pecan
yup
maiden steppe
because at least in Rush, all it takes is a single guy to arm a bomb.
hollow pecan
I want BF2143 honestly
maiden steppe
there's more room for carry potential in the chaos of a 32v32 match
echo gazelle
Breakthrough is a lite Rush, with conquest in the middle... It's not the same
hollow pecan
it's the closest that BFV can offer
upbeat cypress
There hasnt be a vietnam war game in such a long time
maiden steppe
I believe Bad Company 3 will have a vietnam war / cold war setting
this info came from the same guy that leaked BFV + BF1 details
and turned out to be right about everything
little zenith
echo gazelle
No @hollow pecan, Rush is returning in the second season
hollow pecan
oh really?
upbeat cypress
dice just need to listen to the community tbh
echo gazelle
Yeah, they have it on schedule
hollow pecan
that's sweet
maiden steppe
ask your TTK 0.5 apologists how much they like the lack of carry potential that they have now.
upbeat cypress
anyone know if there will be air assault in bfv?
pliant geyser
I hope BC3 is indeed Cold war
echo gazelle
"Return of Rush"
pliant geyser
Modern is boring
upbeat cypress
Will there be “Return of Air Assault”
pliant geyser
modern = thermals, lock on missiles, cheap stuff
upbeat cypress
thats the thing i hate bout BF4, when i used helicopters. 5 rockets immedietly locked on me
If its vietnam or cold war there wont be any of those shit
west plinth
Imagine not being able to outrun missiles - This post was made by jet gang
echo gazelle
One thing that bugs me a lot, in another topic.
Why are the Americans omitted in this game? It's like DICE trying to rewrite History or something. I actually laughed they put Sherman tanks in "The Last Tiger". And have American gear in the troop customization (1911 was not UK issued, for example).
upbeat cypress
I want vietnam war because i want to hear the good songs
lapis hare
they're probably waiting until the year when americans were dragged into the war
pliant geyser
Vader the wanted to feature ww2 in a timeline
west plinth
@echo gazelle Because the "tides of war" follow the progression of war. It started with germans and brits, soviet, US and other axis forces will join the fight lateron
pliant geyser
Initially the US did not get involved
As time goes on Im sure americans will be added
echo gazelle
Ah, yeah, so they would add them as a further factions, good idea
pliant geyser
Right now its the start of the war with Brits and Germans
echo gazelle
But in The Last Tiger, the Americans are there!
wet owl
Hi guys can you help me with gewehr 43 mstery???

@echo gazelle The MP is currently in 1940, as germans invade Belgium (Panzerstorm map)

asian players tend to treat hacking as a challenge - from what my 2 friends from china have told me.
lapis hare
can't wait for the M1 Garand tho 
👌
west plinth
You can maybe at some point buy cosmetics for currency as well, but that's not even sure yet
random dust
like it's part of the game to hack it.
echo gazelle
@west plinth I meant they could be planning a Pacific expansion, holding the american and Japanese faction in the lot.
random dust
i definitely want muh sherman

western front would come first I think

Then we would require more factions into the frey

@echo gazelle I mean, they propably will 🤷 Eventually.

by that point most of the playerbase will be gone...

for all we know they're only going to do battles that were british/german.
after all they want to focus on the "lesser known battles" which i whole-heartedly disagree with.
echo gazelle
Like girls skiing and sniping germans with knives?
maiden steppe
so this is news to me: according to a DICE designer, tickets get deducted when a player is no longer revivable. Tickets don't actually represent respawn count.
random dust
i didn't even play that war story
maiden steppe
that's why you see the little skull over the ticket meter at the top of the screen when it gets deducted
random dust
because it's concept infuriates me.
echo gazelle
Like some youtuber said, they could just tell REAL war stories involving women. That's a fiction tale, it's not even factual and mainly just trying to be PC in a game that doesn't need to be PC or inclusive.
maiden steppe
go look at the popularity of red dead redemption 2
see how much Rockstar gives a shit about being PC
still one of the greatest games of all time
random dust
I mean to be fair, you can't fuck hookers in RDR2.
echo gazelle
Even RDR2 has "strong female characters". it's not possible to escape PC.
random dust
That's all Sadie is there for.
random dust
to have the "empowered woman" character.
maiden steppe
i mean, the game also enables you to literally torture such empowered characters
in free roam at least
west plinth
It's not rewriting history
lapis hare
I just dislike playing a game
random dust
oh this should be good.
cosmic wharf
No one is rewriting history
lapis hare
& finding out that women was including for no apparent reason
other than just being women
gray glade
it is rewriting history if you are pretending these are actual historical events*
west plinth
The game itself tells you that the stories are fictional. They are inspired by real world events, but they are not "rewriting" history.
cosmic wharf
It's a game that's inspired by ww2. Yes it has elements they made up. Yes it has actual stories
west plinth
^
cosmic wharf
It's not totally based on ww2, play a different game if you want
gray glade
untold stories implies that its historically fact based
random dust
How does a norwegian spec-ops operation inspire a story of a one-woman-army killing nazis on skiis?

otherwise they are just stories

@west plinth that is the operation I am referring to... again how does that translate to teenage girl skier killing nazis.
gray glade
i didnt play the other stories, but the last tiger story was aces
cosmic wharf
I wonder if he's related to Miller from battlefield 3
lapis hare
probably not
random dust
That in essence is rewriting history.
it should have been the actual spec-ops team that was sent
cosmic wharf
Well his name could have been "Americanized"

OMG CLYDE BLACKBURN

Yea
lapis hare
come to think of it
cosmic wharf
Wait did you not make that connection?

does anyone have a BFV profile for Logitech Gaming Software to help config my mouse? if so, please PM
lapis hare
I played the war story with Blackburn
and I immediately thought of Blackburn from bf3
cosmic wharf
But I'm so hype for tides of war. Give me carbines for all classes DICE and I'll be happy
west plinth
@random dust It's not rewriting history as they don't claim that's the only thing that happened. As far as the one-man-killing-machine goes, it's a game. In the raid inspiring the story not a single person was shot. Noone would enjoy playing that, one of the primary complaints of that warstory was that gameplaywise stealth doesn't fit into BF. As far as the main character being a girl, I would just chalk that up to storytelling. It's a bit more engaging if the story is about a daughter saving her mother compared to some random dude rescuing the random norwegian factory worker, imho. 🤷
random dust
only if they have larger mags
cosmic wharf
I want to build mgs wheeling around with a R107
random dust
@west plinth so have it be about the norwegian squad, but have combat take place. Don't make it a one-woman show. I wouldn't care if the character we played on that mission was a woman - as long as she was an actual soldier in a squad. There is NONE of that in that story. She's basically a fucking civilian killing trained soldiers. it is utterly ridiculous and disrespectful to the mission it's based on - fictionalized or not.
and don't make it a rescue mission - make it the actual mission to destroy the hard water. It's not that hard to make that story interesting.
gray glade
im glad it seems like we're getting italian campaign and greece battles
random dust
greece will be interesting
cosmic wharf
Yea I hope Crete opens with a German Paradrop
random dust
but it will depend on what new things we get included with it - vehicle/weapons wise.

''pay debt''

if it's just a couple maps I'm gonna be disappointed.

I'm guessing new tanks, machine pistols and tons of new uniforms
IIRC Australia forces where at Crete

The allies have 2
lapis hare
no
cosmic wharf
Eh.
random dust
I would love to get some of the "unique" designs for my pistol.
cosmic wharf
The pistol customization in that game for grips was shit
Unless they made a system that wasn't bs. Id be down with it
cosmic wharf
Especially if It was heroic
random dust
but I want some pistol grip options.

But sometimes I got great shit out of the drops

what about a Howell?

no idea what THAT is

looks like it would be perfect for the medic.

Still waiting on the grease gun
random dust
such an ugly sounding name
lapis hare
yea its kinda similar
celest pumice
I don’t think the grease gun will be added
lapis hare
but I dislike the Turner tbh
random dust
I thought the sten was a grease gun
cosmic wharf
Nah it will with America I presume
trail flame
Same, the Howell felt stronger in BF1. Turner sounds pretty lame
celest pumice
you can look up all the guns that will be in the game
hold up i’ll our the link in here
random dust
no more BF1 guns
lapis hare
Howell sounds meaty
celest pumice

lapis hare
Turner just sounds like you shoot peas
cosmic wharf
Sten is British, Grease Gun is American, Owen is Australian
random dust
but it's essentially the same gun isn't it?
cosmic wharf
Eh
celest pumice
Grease gun is just a version of the MP40
lapis hare
i'd love to see a Howell or a Mondragón making it into BFV
if Selbstladers are added
why not Howells & Mondragóns
main grove
I'm proabably disliking conquest core more because that's where most of the forum dwelling tryhards go
opaque cipher
Might as well add the entirety of BF1 in lmao
cosmic wharf
The Sten and Owen run on 9x19

As long as it doesn't get made trash like the Model 8 and RSC did

2 shot up close 3 shot at long range

@celest pumice is that's just for launch, more weapons have been found in the game code

Model 8 and RSC were my most used guns by far in BF1, in BFV they're super ass and now also for Recon

no it’s not

Around 24 or so
celest pumice
look the Grand is in there
opaque cipher
Garand is probably cut for later release kek
Well I mean
You can’t give them to medics
celest pumice
I hope i’m wrong lol
cosmic wharf
But the article is 6 months old
opaque cipher
Because smokes are extremely powerful in this game
cosmic wharf
They pushed back a few weapons and gadgets
trail flame
medic got shafted hard in this game, mostly because DICE cut archetypes for some reason. Originally guns were cross-kit with SMGs being all class, now it's just whatever.
opaque cipher
You give semi to medics and it butchers one major advantage a team has
opaque cipher
I’d say medics should have access to shotguns and ARs
lapis hare
I liked in Alpha when SLRs were available for medic

I hope medics get the PPsh

no more Recon with silenced SMGs, garrottes and throwing knives

i've only ever seen smoke being used
opaque cipher
Medics must never leave CQC

Because smoke is godly
lapis hare
doesn't really help the fact that if you're pushing towards a flag/sector
opaque cipher
Not just to cover revives
cosmic wharf
Damn rip
lapis hare
you get gunned by some long range person
trail flame
and subsequently forgot about, don't think they were mentioned at all post-trailer thing
opaque cipher
But also cover pushes and sight lines
lapis hare
& you can't do anything because haha smgs
lapis hare
yea I know, i've only ever seen smokes being used to cover revives
celest pumice
It’s just crazy to me not to put most iconic ww2 guns in at launch . It would have boosted the fun and combat drastically . Instead i think we can all agree it’s about the same 5 guns that usually kill ya lol
trail flame
And smoke only gets you so far, especially on the vast, devoid maps like Hamada or Panzerstorm where the sightlines are like, 300m
lapis hare
the entire ''use smoke to cover'' is completely ignored in chat
celest pumice
@lapis hare i use it

I want to max that
How is it
Since I don’t really like the other heavy tank
“Do you want a main gun with heavy drop or a main gun with heavier drop?”
Is the howitzer even decent
random dust
I mean the gun carrier is just the british version of the Sturmtiger
i haven't tried the howitzer
it's supposedly good against infantry
but if im in a tank it's to kill tanks.

Sturmtiger feels STRONK though, the last time I took the gun carrier I got sick of it and drove it into the lake of Narvik to escape having to use it

jesus XD
could have let another team mate drive it
ive had my team steal my tanks a couple times now...

better to have it explode and someone take another, spare them from having to be confused how to use it

the tiger and churchill are fun.

the churchill is too fucking long

the german Baby tank is hilarious to see.

German baby tank in the church on Devastation is max chaos

And use the Staghound in its place
Isn’t the Staghound just BF4 APC autocannon
Or is that the German baby tank

I thought that was what the Valentine AA is?
opaque cipher
Valentine AA is a medium tank tho
Has that bigger gun upgrade
Right now I’m not sure what to level for the third British tank
random dust
btw when you say "baby" tank, you have to say it how the True Facts guy says baby
otherwise you're saying it wronbg
wrong*
trail flame
Staghound is more like an armoured car I guess than a proper tank, Valentine MK1 AA thingy is a proper AA gun and nowhere near as cool as the German alternative
random dust
well the british have 2 heavy tanks so...
opaque cipher
I want to do Staghound but the AA seems better
Because it actually has range and all that
random dust
yeah but the british one is more effective against infantry.
it's gun has a wider blast radius
opaque cipher
That 3 guns upgrade seems real damn good
random dust
the german AA tank is basically a big machine gun
opaque cipher
The German AA is a joke against infantry
Kek
Imagine if you have medic SMG TTK but as a tank
trail flame
German AA tank looks so dumb hence why I like it more
opaque cipher
I should upgrade to flak
But the turret is actually godly against aircraft
So I’m really torn
What do you think tbh @trail flame
I need some professional tanker advice

I only drive Tiger tanks, haven't properly used the AA ones yet. Though blasting infantry is a lot better than aircraft anyhow
random dust
aircraft are basically flying point pinatas.
especially the bombers now.
since they got nerfed into the ground.
random dust
I used to love flying my bomber...
opaque cipher
That thing is pretty shit because fast overheat and slow RoF & velocity
opaque cipher
At least let the bombs recharge faster
random dust
god dammit.
opaque cipher
The 250 tons that is
random dust
it already takes like 30 seconds to recharge.
meaning you're flying around doing nothing for 30 seconds.
random dust
yeah those are hard to get hits with anyway.
west plinth
1 Ton is the vehicle killer. StuKa B-1 is da best 😄

i miss my 50Kgr x 32 carpet bombing runs...
random dust
I think my best run got 10 kills with the 50kgr bombs.
opaque cipher
I do divebombs and it rarely catch more than three guys
Average is one to two kill
Stuka seems better now honestly
B1 that is
west plinth
B1 is my baby

I like how you bail out the bomb bay

thank god for nose art tho
i got my white and black german fighter and my snake nose are.

First game of the day and i couldnt move from one base to the other (using cover) without dying to a camper, :feelsbadman:

I am kinda sad you cant outfit the at guns and AA guns like you can with tanks

How does Specilizations work once you use points and want to try it out does it reset
or are they unlocked forever ?
halcyon pagoda
once youve gotten to lvl 4 and bought 4 specs then all of them are automatically unlocked and you can reset and respec whenever you want
btw is anyone having problems with the tides of war "look up" assignment??
i've completed it countless times, yet it won't register my progress
i've gotten v1/jb2 kills as squad leader, my squad has gotten multiple v1/jb2 kills multiple times too
yet it won't track my progress
i've even restarted the game, hard reset my xbox, watched the tutorial video, find games by going on the assignment itself
this has been going on for 2 days now
gritty burrow
once you get to level 4, they all become unlocked and you can respec

do you have to complete Tides of War objectives through the Tides of War screen?
last time I could complete them just going to conquest on my own
this time it isn't registering my revives as an assault class
I'm trying to join a game through Tides of War game and it keeps saying it can't find a suitable game.
unique thunder
I tried all morning and had no revives register as assault even with going through the screen
unique thunder
Went into the right map too
boreal tundra
Anyone else having trouble detecting enemies? i get it that you are supposed to be rewarded by blending with the terrain but jesus fucking christ the contrast between the player models and the surroundings is just terrible
i miss dorito spotting so much :/
maybe its because i play on ultra?
unique thunder
Stationary especially prone enemies you may as well just accept you're not going to see them IMO. As soon as they start running i find them pretty easy to see
frozen bridge
@boreal tundra jackfrags suggest you play on all low with meshes on max for best visibility
but if you play on low the terrain looks like its repeating itself all the time so bump up textures too
anyone here with a 10 series gtx know if DX12 is beneficial now?
boreal tundra
i have a 1060 but every time i pop it my fps drops from 60 (capped) to 45-ish
quaint pollen
nothing feels better than almost clutching up the 10 headshots on an objective and getting kicked from the server due to "lost connection"
boreal tundra
still better than my friend that got the v1 kill, got dced before the round ended, and didnt get the credit for it
frozen bridge
This is really odd
Not only does DX12 make the menus sluggish
It also makes the game blurry
quaint pollen
pretty sure by enabling dx12 it resets some of your settings
quaint pollen
when I was testing it again it reset my motion blur and filtering
frozen bridge
Well, I'mma turnin that shit off because it's making my shiz blurred
boreal tundra
annnnnd of course i had to reboot my pc because i forgot that i cant exit the game trough the menu "Exit" button
icy sluice
I still find it weird that the OG Xbox One hits 60 a majority of the time
Then again the minecraft trees pop up more than usual so...
obtuse mesa
anyone know why Geforce experience isn't recording my voice on bfv?
icy sluice
Check the settings of it maybe?
I can't use it because my graphics card doesn't... 'fully' support that so I can't check for myself.
But the first thing I'd do would be to check any sound settings within the program
Also... I actually saw someone with the Dead Man's Hand outfit as an assault... camping in a corner with an STG44

What to do when TOW assignments is not working?
does that mean you never gonna get the stuff =?
icy sluice
Try restarting the game, there are times where instances don't show progress so if it doesn't try restarting your game.
solid hinge
You just suffer until they work
random dust
fuck you bro
icy sluice
The bombs need to take more damage, being spot on with my bombs, usually does like 60 damage or so
Stuka B-2 I think
random dust
I haven't tried the stukas
icy sluice
They're fucking bombs why do they need to be basically a direct hit?
west plinth
Balance reasons 🤷 Also hitting an AA with a ton bomb directly is a neat oneshot 😄
random dust
and even then it's only useful when it has the carpet bombs
icy sluice
The Stuka is useless against infantry unless you get the 4x250 bombs
Because the base only allows you to drop one 250k bomb
random dust
ouch...
icy sluice
And because you only kill like one person per payload... fuck you.
random dust
but at least the stuka can dogfight
west plinth
4x50 kg and primary gun against infantry, 1000 kg bomb against vehicles 🤷
icy sluice
The front guns are meant for infantry
Yeah but that's not the base version
You need to level up the Stuka to be viable
random dust
yeah base versions are basically impossible to use.
pulsar horizon
Guys I am trying to do the dragon valley Easter egg on BF4. Does anyone know if it's a problem for the map to reset because of time?
west plinth
For the B-2 yes, and even if leveled it's trash. The base B-1 is fairly good tho
pulsar horizon
Will it mess up my progress?
solid hinge
The stuka specialises in divebombing vehicles while the Ju is area bombardment

west plinth
Gun pods are the forward/down facing quad cannons, right?
random dust
yeah they're the 4th spec middle option
west plinth
They are amazing against planes, tough to use against infantry tho
icy sluice
The Mosquito has a Spotting Camera I think
So if you're playing Hamada, you can spot the entire enemy team pretty much if you're playing Breakthrough
You're basically a fucking UAV
west plinth
But I think choosing the camera doesn't allow you to pick the quad Hispanos, so what's the pont? 😄
icy sluice
True but then you get a fuckton of score for Spotting Assists and whatnot
Seriously, look at that shit 👀
random dust
i mean that looks like it's doing what it's supposed to fucking do.
don't nerf that.
west plinth
Maybe needs a bit of range falloff, but eh, it's doing what it's supposed to
solid hinge
That's like having literally 100 flares at once
west plinth
OUR FLARES WILL BLOCK OUT THE SUN!

that is the worst feeling ever when u grind all game for a rocket and you put it on an enemy owned flag but get 90 damage or some shit

unfortunately biased infrantry mains want everything that can kill them to be nerfed into oblivion.

uhm so whats in this conquest core mode
strong parrot
old ttk?
west plinth
I'm a plane whore, but I still think explosive spam is stupid and shouldn't be encouraged 🤷
jovial forge
You got 10 guys with 1 grenade who throw them roughly in the same few seconds. Its not spam but the reciever considers it so
Not only that, chokepoint maps are where most really complain about spam. Like metro or locker n even the Block
Explosives from BF4 on up get nerfed cus people always trying to farm that kd on the most chokepoint infantry maps screwing it over for the rest
spare spoke
BUT THATS NOT REALISTIC
jovial forge
BFV? Or previous titles?
BFV needs refinement but thats whats you get with "Live service". Treat like how R6S was when it was first launch. As time will passes, hopefully it'll be more stable like how BF4 was.
random dust
nah they're gonna abandon it in 6 months when their next yearly project starts getting marketed.
jovial forge
Which can be very possible since that happened to Battlefront 2 and its live service.
solid hinge
they wont drop it they have the drag system all ready to go it just needs to be cleaned an polished

Thats supposed to happen before launch

Tired of devs finishing games after releasing

paull if u dont like it wait to buy the game
give a game 6 months for devs to look into it then buy
compact oxide
I have a feeling it'll still be buggy when they release dragging
strong parrot
when will the patch come out that removes the stupid ass "new item" dot from my classes every time i log in even though that item isnt new i just unlocked it and viewed it last time i played the game
compact oxide
I get annoyed at that too, but honestly I hope they fix the TTD before that

anyone else having choppy performance? it runs fine, mostly. and then sometimes just plummets
opaque cipher
But if you just fine tuned the old TTK for medics it would’ve been even better
solid hinge
This TTK business is going to kill Battlefield V, DICE needs to backtrack right now or risk losing most of the community
If they give us Core gamemodes for everything its going to seperate the playerbase between the people who like the old TTK and those who like the new one
And when they inevitably revert the TTK back to what it was, half the community will have left
Not because of them being split between old and new TTK, but because DICE took so long
RIP Firestorm BR, RIP Greece, RIP Stalingrad, RIP Pacfic, RIP Normandy boys
I hope soemoen from DICE is listening
