its a bunker buster yeah

primal sage
#

Like...

#

...okay you guys remember catapults and trebuchets?

#

Meant to destroy walls and cities that hid behind said walls?

dense bone
#

no

#

i wasnt alive during that time

primal sage
#

Or just like...big log wall destroyers?

#

I meant in movies.

#

You dunce.

#

The Jadgtiger is meant to be like that.

dense bone
#

oh yea, i know of them

drowsy finch
#

*Sturmtiger

primal sage
#

"Okay they're hold up in that building. Bring in the Jadgpanzer, we're leveling it."

drowsy finch
#

Jagdtiger is a mistake of a vehicle on a mistake of a chassis

#

Jagdpanzer was an actually decent tank destroyer don’t you trash tank it

calm meteor
#

a sturmtiger killed 3 shermans with one shot once dicepls

random dust
#

I'm watching girls und panzer for the first time...

#

and it upsets me what they've done to the panzers

#

one is pink.

primal sage
#

I guess they Germans wanted to have a vehicle that got more distance in it's shot.

random dust
#

like... bubblegum pink.

drowsy finch
#

That changes very fast

#

Don’t worry

primal sage
#

The Sturmtiger could level things but it couldn't shoot very far.

#

Jadgtiger.

#

For when you need to level a building from 10 blocks away.

drowsy finch
#

The Sturmpanzer would have been more reasonable than the Tiger

#

Jagdtiger was a potato vehicle

random dust
#

they have school girls driving really... really detailed recreations of tanks.

#

this makes me uncomfortable.

drowsy finch
#

@random dust the show is basically a bunch of tank nerds having a laugh with anime tropes

#

It’s a pretty good time compared to other fare out there

#

The worst thing in it is just how much Tokyo drift there is in there

random dust
#

i mean it's got churchills and valentines so I'm good.

drowsy finch
#

Everything else is ok

random dust
#

i dunno what the hell the pink tank is supposed to be though

#

it looks like a sherman with a tumor

drowsy finch
#

Lee

#

It’s a Lee

#

The thing the US made before the Sherman

random dust
#

that would explain it

drowsy finch
#

Basically armor branch and infantry branch got into a fight after Poland happened and this is what came out

random dust
#

it would be a super interesting tank to have in BFV.

#

just to shake up tanks

#

looks like it has two individual main guns

drowsy finch
#

DoD realized “we need a bigger gun than the 37mm” and armor branch was like ok and the infantry was like no we still want the 37 and this is what came out

#

And the Brits were like wtf is this the commander can’t even reach the radio

#

And the US was like deal with it it’s all we have to lend lease you

random dust
#

cus GUUUUUNS

drowsy finch
#

Nah

#

M2 light tank

#

Or M2 medium tank

#

Those are “cus GUUUUNS”

#

Machine guns in literally every direction they look hilarious

random dust
#

isn't that a WW2 tank?

#

WW1*

drowsy finch
#

No

primal sage
#

The M3 Lee, officially Medium Tank, M3, was an American medium tank used during World War II.

drowsy finch
#

Interwar

primal sage
#

Yep.

drowsy finch
#

Armor branch made some whack stuff back then

primal sage
#

If you call the M3 Lee an Interwar tank, count the FT-17 then.

little fjord
#

Selbstlader vs gewehr 43... is selb less accurate? Less damage?

drowsy finch
#

I was talking about the M2

primal sage
#

FT-17 has been used in pretty much every war since WWI.

drowsy finch
#

The M3 was an early war tank

random dust
#

TANK WAR TANK WAR TANK WAR!

#

Ox I think the Gewehr has the highest damage

#

but slowest bullet output

primal sage
#

Can we have this for American transport?

drowsy finch
#

What we need is M3 scout car

#

Max speed go go memes

sterile ingot
#

selbst is better but no one knows it

random dust
#

I want transports to be treated like tanks. having their own upgrade trees and such

#

I think people would utilize them more that way

primal sage
#

Same with pistols too TBH.

drowsy finch
#

Dear god give me pistol upgrades yes

calm meteor
#

i wonder what the US heavy tank would be, just an E8 sherman?

drowsy finch
#

Jumbo

calm meteor
topaz dome
#

calliope happy

drowsy finch
#

Had less armor than a Tiger 2 but still a loooooooot

primal sage
#

Knowing DICE, they'd probably put that in.

drowsy finch
#

It was a thicc boi

tribal cairn
#

Maybe the Pershing

primal sage
#

Despite the fact that, again, no Heavy American Tanks appeared in WWII.

calm meteor
#

the M6 thinkderp

drowsy finch
#

T28

calm meteor
#

we already got napkin bonger tanks

random dust
#

that armored tank that takes 3 hits in the last tiger campaign

#

that will probably be the heavy american tank

primal sage
#

That was just a Sherman with upgraded armor.

thin apex
#

The E8 Sherman?

random dust
#

exactly lol

#

ALL THE AMERICAN TANKS WILL BE SHERMANS HAHAHAHAHA

primal sage
#

It had sandbags and shit piled on it.

thin apex
#

They could go with the M18 Hellcat

primal sage
#

You know what I miss?

thin apex
#

The Sherman

drowsy finch
#

That was actually an M4A1 with a 76mm

thin apex
#

and the M8

calm meteor
#

sandbag piling was discountinued after normandy

primal sage
#

APCs.

calm meteor
#

because it was a really bad idea

random dust
#

Firefly shermans will likely be the heavy tanks

primal sage
#

Guys, remember the APC in BF3?

random dust
#

since they were designed to kill tigers

thin apex
primal sage
drowsy finch
#

The M4A1 actually had slightly worse armor than most other Shermans which is funny because it takes more shots to kill in the campaign

#

Firefly was a British tank

calm meteor
#

Eh, sherman upgrade will probably be get the 76mm gun upgrade for the short 75

#

like all the other mediums

drowsy finch
#

And it was also a kinda bad idea

#

Which is why the US never used it

primal sage
#

The Firefly Sherman was a meme.

calm meteor
#

"can't see shit cap"

random dust
#

And the Gun Carrier churchill isn't?

primal sage
#

THEY CUT OUT A HOLE IN THE TURRET FOR A RADIO BECAUSE IT WAS TOO SMALL DUE TO THE ENLARGED BARREL!

calm meteor
#

"just put the 17 pounder in an open top TD"

drowsy finch
#

Yeah armor branch looked at the Firefly and was like “nah we’re good”

primal sage
#

No I have a picture somewhere about the Firefly.

calm meteor
#

Archer or Achielles or whatever

drowsy finch
#

Achilles

#

Though it was just a Wolverine

random dust
#

but what about the monstrosity of tank called the Gun Carrier?

drowsy finch
#

Achilles was a questionable name that no one really used

random dust
#

or Box on Treds

calm meteor
#

need a larger version

dense bone
#

thats what she said

drowsy finch
#

Firefly was too large of a gun in too small of a turret

calm meteor
#

surprised the germans never tried to shove a KWK42 in a panzer IV turret

drowsy finch
#

See the Challenger (WWII era) to see what a proper sized turret for the 17 is

#

Sherman 76mm was the better tank

primal sage
#

So uhm...anyone else never getting more ammo for the front facing MG on the Blenheim MK I?

#

Every time I run by a resupply, it never reloads my MG ammo, even when I'm at 0.

#

No one?

random dust
#

The Blenheim has weapons???

#

I thought it was just a flying points pinata

little fjord
#

If you fly into the ground your enemy gets no points

#

👍

drowsy finch
#

Ew planes

sterile ingot
#

"In 1 life, headshot kill 10 enemies within objective areas" LOL ok

drowsy finch
#

Yeah that assignment right there

#

Is trash

random dust
#

this show makes not a god damn bit of since

dense bone
#

@sterile ingot which gun

sterile ingot
#

selbstlader

drowsy finch
#

All the semi auto rifles assaults get

dense bone
#

isnt the other one get 20 kills in a round in obj?

drowsy finch
#

I had to do it for the M1 and it’s actually garbage to complete

dense bone
#

but you get 2 assignments, and have to complete 1, and the other is get 20 kills in obj in a round

#

just go for that

random dust
#

yeah okay can't watch this show.

#

Fuckin' forcing people to do shit they don't want is one thing I can't stand.

drowsy finch
#

Actually another thing that bugged me about the Tiger campaign

random dust
#

and thats not even why I clickedi t!!!

drowsy finch
#

Is every Sherman has an ammo cook off

#

In 1945

#

The myth about Sherman ammo stowage is disgraceful

#

It had similar burn chances as all other vehicles of the war before wet stowage and after wet stowage it was even better

#

It was the most survivable tank of the war

solid hinge
#

I have a theory on what the next factions are.

#

Maybe the next ones will be on D-day.

#

But not the "americans and canadians vs the germans!"

#

But the "americans vs the japanese" in saipan.

drowsy finch
#

D-Day is like 3 years away in their timeline

solid hinge
#

?

drowsy finch
#

This is fall of Europe 1939-1942 ish

solid hinge
#

Actually, the americans did have a D-day in saipan.

random dust
#

this game isn't gonna last 4 years lol

solid hinge
#

It was to capture saipan, as a tactical and strategic standpoint to bomb japan.

random dust
#

2 max

#

content production wise

#

then it's just gonna be maintenance from then on

drowsy finch
#

I mean content wise

#

Actual release dates will be much faster

random dust
#

I'm not waiting 4 years for the thing I bought the game for in the first place

#

just because they wanna stay "Cronological"

drowsy finch
#

They still have to cover mid-war North Africa and early pacific theater and eastern front before D-Day

solid hinge
#

Americans were in north Africa

calm meteor
#

PPSH goes to assault memeface

solid hinge
#

Kasserine pas

gray glade
#

i reckon eastern front will come 2nd part of 2019

drowsy finch
#

I’m much more interested in Stalingrad than I am in another tired Omaha map

random dust
#

I don't care about the map

#

I want the american tanks and weapons

#

and my b17 fortress

solid hinge
#

@drowsy finch you lack testicular fortitude

drowsy finch
#

B-17

#

You’re kidding right

solid hinge
#

Probably a b25

random dust
#

Nope.

calm meteor
#

B26

random dust
#

Whatever

drowsy finch
#

Yeah that’s what you’re looking for

random dust
#

Point is I want the flying fortress.

solid hinge
#

Considering other bombers are also twin engine

random dust
#

numbers are semantics

drowsy finch
#

No the B-17 is the Flying Fortress

calm meteor
#

A20

drowsy finch
#

It is also way way way of of scale

solid hinge
#

Yes a 20

calm meteor
#

actually A20 would be p. nice with proper bazooka and 6 fiddy in the front

drowsy finch
#

B-17 was bombing factories not one sniper hiding in a bush

random dust
#

So?

calm meteor
#

B25 with the 75mm agony

#

PBJ

random dust
#

we need some actual bombers, not them Bleheim/JU-88 crap

drowsy finch
#

B-26 Marauder 6 HMG in the front

#

Now that

#

Would be fun

calm meteor
#

actual bombers would just vaporize a quarter of the average BFV map

random dust
#

And tanks should be ungodly killing machines, but they blow up just as quick as a jeep sometimes.

#

It wouldn't be impossible.

drowsy finch
#

Tanks blow up a lot slower than they should

random dust
#

LMAO

#

you must play infantry mostly

drowsy finch
#

The fact the average assault player can’t kill a tank by himself is unrealistic

#

You were talking about realism

calm meteor
#

war thunder level of tank mechanices dicepls

#

hand pick my ammo location

drowsy finch
#

Realism is one Panzerfaust to the side of a Tiger should kill the crew right then and there

random dust
#

well considering there's anywhere between 10-20 assualts per tank, it seems fair that 1 can't blow up a tank on it's own.

drowsy finch
#

Yes I’m not saying that’s how it should be in the game

rocky verge
#

Is the M1897 shotgun relased yet or no?

calm meteor
#

88mm HE to the feet only doing 80 dmg

drowsy finch
#

I’m just saying tanks are more powerful compared to their IRL counterparts

random dust
#

And that sort of balance can be applied to a Flying Fortres.

rocky verge
#

Like in the armory

solid hinge
#

@rocky verge yeah.

random dust
#

The thing was in the original 1942 I don't see why I can't be in he current WW2 game

dense bone
#

@rocky verge your icon and you always mentioning armory makes me think youre taking about destiny 2

drowsy finch
#

Flying Fortress works as an ability call in like JB-2

#

Anything less would be nonsense

random dust
#

I'd be fine with that

#

That would make perfect sense.

rocky verge
#

@dense bone lol

#

Nah

random dust
#

it would be great as a flying-squad-callin

dense bone
#

you know the black armory and the face of that expansion?

calm meteor
#

hope we get fuckwolves190

drowsy finch
#

I didn’t say Crocodile

#

I said JB-2

random dust
#

So?

#

Call in is a call in

drowsy finch
#

It flies over, nukes the spot you pointed at

#

And goes away

random dust
#

Oh fuck that

#

no

#

I want to fly it

drowsy finch
#

That’s about as “in” you can get with a strategic bomber

dense bone
#

thats what she said

calm meteor
#

B17 call in, 10 teammates to man it, hello new behemoths

random dust
#

I don't care if i'd only get it for maybe 20 seconds a match

#

I would still fly the shit out of it.

open raptor
#

Omg the new assualt weapon is so good, why even use BREN

drowsy finch
#

I guess you could do it like the BF4 bomber

random dust
#

or just the 1942 bomber

#

where the flying fortress existed

#

already

#

in the game

autumn fulcrum
#

What happens if I do not complete the Overture shit for the helmet?

#

can I still get the helmet?

random dust
#

yeah it will cost you CC

autumn fulcrum
#

My progress is again stuck, now on the last fucking thing

#

I've thrown 3 bombs already...

random dust
#

yeah it's a common problem people are having

autumn fulcrum
#

Killed a lot of people with it

random dust
#

are you still in the same server?

drowsy finch
#

I have the same bug

random dust
#

when you open the menu - if it doesn't say your current assignment is to bomb people with the V1/JB-2

#

then it's bugged

#

and won't count.

#

so you have to leave that session.

#

in the menu during the match that is

#

not the main menu

dusk oak
#

How’s the new shotgun I need an honest opinion🙂

random dust
#

it looks like it fucking murders from the gifs I've seen.

#

one guy got a kill per shell.

drowsy finch
#

Better than the 12G

dusk oak
#

Should I upgrade the right side or the left side I know in cod I prefer slugs but what do you guys think

dense bone
#

right side is always RIGHT

#

(of the 3 guns ive used i always did full right)

random dust
#

i don't know honestly

#

have yet to use shotguns in this game

dusk oak
#

Same @random dust

drowsy finch
#

If you go right side on the Thompson then you disgrace the gun

dusk oak
#

😂 I took my Suomi more for recoil reduction than hip fire

random dust
#

if you don't get a drum mag on the tompson you don't deserve it in your arsenal

dense bone
#

@drowsy finch i use right side suomi

drowsy finch
#

The drum mag is a disgrace

dense bone
#

i assume its roughly the same

random dust
#

well then you're just wrong 😃

drowsy finch
#

Go use the Ppsh you commie

random dust
#

Nah I'd rather be a mobster

dense bone
#

what side gives more mags for thompson?

drowsy finch
#

Right side

primal sage
#

You know what's weird.

drowsy finch
#

The left gives you 900 rpm

dense bone
#

so you should go right side

primal sage
#

Why do we have the original Tommy Gun?

dense bone
#

who need rpm

#

no one

#

you need bullets

slate zephyr
#

My 1000lb bomb dont care what side u use

primal sage
#

Weren't most soldier given the M4A1 Thompson? Which was cheaper to produce, only accepted stick mags, and had no fire selector switch?

dense bone
#

god damnit taco

drowsy finch
#

if Uncle Sam gives you a 20 round mag you take it and say thank you

#

Filthy communist

No...you don't get it.

BLYATT

primal sage
#

In BFV, we have the OG Thommy Gun version.

#

The M4 Thompson.

drowsy finch
#

Better dead than red

primal sage
#

But in WWII, most soldiers, if not all, had the M4A1, since it was cheaper to make.

dense bone
#

is that gun in game?

#

i want it

slate zephyr
#

My bomb can help you with that katti

glad lily
#

Better red white and blue than have a swine flu

outer ingot
#

should tell the devs, I know they area going for historical accuracy in this one

slate zephyr
#

Or gingivitis

dense bone
#

tell them to balance aerodome

#

the idiots

primal sage
#

Well I mean...

drowsy finch
#

The older Thompson is in the game because they’re too lazy to shift from WWI

primal sage
#

...even CoD WWII got this wrong.

drowsy finch
#

BTW I want a Cold War battlefield

dense bone
#

I WANT BF BR

#

o wait

#

drowsy finch

I wanna kill a T-64 with an M60A2

solid hinge
#

Britain bought m1928s when war were declared

#

Thompson m1 was like, 1942

primal sage
#

Ohhhh.

#

Okay yeah I'll....I'll take that.

#

But Americans pretty much exclusively had the M1 variant.

solid hinge
#

Not really

primal sage
#

What do you mean?

solid hinge
#

We sold some to the russians

#

Lend lease

primal sage
#

I mean when Americans went into the war and were issued SMGS, it was the M4A1 Thompson they carried.

solid hinge
#

M1

#

Not n4

primal sage
#

M1A1?

#

Ah.

#

Yes.

solid hinge
#

Yes

primal sage
#

Okay.

solid hinge
#

Anyway

#

M1928 is partially why Britain went with the sten

primal sage
#

Wasn't too great in war?

solid hinge
#

Helllll no

primal sage
#

War conditions, excuse me.

drowsy finch
#

Sten was made because Britain wanted something cheap

solid hinge
#

1928 was expensive

primal sage
#

Same reason the M1A1 was made.

solid hinge
#

And supply was not guaranteed

calm meteor
#

"just copy the MP28, make it cheaper than dirt"

drowsy finch
#

It’s literally a metal cylinder with a mag stuck into the side

bitter imp
#

Think they'll add the m1A1 tommy?

solid hinge
#

Thats sten mk II

drowsy finch
#

Also resources

solid hinge
#

Lanchester is mp28 copy

drowsy finch
#

Wood is important for other things

primal sage
#

It used metal sheet stampings instead of...whatever else, it only accepted stick mags, had no feed for a 50 round drum, and it only had a saftey switch, it only did full auto otherwise.

solid hinge
#

Then they wanted it even fucking cheaper

#

Sten mk I

primal sage
#

Isn't the Sten Select Fire?

#

Semi or Full?

solid hinge
#

No

#

Full

bitter imp
#

I seriously hope they add both the M1A1 and M3 to Medics when the Americans enter the battlefield

solid hinge
#

Probably

calm meteor
#

M55

#

plz

dense bone
#

m1a1 is assault

calm meteor
#

M1941 plz

solid hinge
#

M1a1 is different enough

primal sage
#

One version of the Sten was select fire, I know it.

calm meteor
#

Pingyboi better be assualt

solid hinge
#

M3 could also fire both 9mm and 45 acp

drowsy finch
#

Garand will be weird

#

Might get made a self loading rifle

solid hinge
#

Hell no

#

It will be assault

drowsy finch
#

Considering all the service rifles are already recon

solid hinge
#

Springfield

primal sage
#

They already have it.

#

1903a4

primal sage
#

The Krag.

The BAR goes to the Springfield

primal sage
#

No.

BAR and M1 Garand for assault Springfield for Recon

primal sage
#

True.

solid hinge
#

BAR for support

The KRAG was the inspiration for the Springfield.

WROOOONG @primal sage

drowsy finch
#

Bar might get AR status

icy sluice
#

Papashaw goes to the Pilot

drowsy finch
#

Considering M1919

solid hinge
#

Springfield was a mauser copy

primal sage
#

Oh yeah.

solid hinge
#

C93

primal sage
#

Then how come before the Springfield, Americans used the Krag?

solid hinge
#

I mean

icy sluice
#

Actually when the BAR comes it will only be classified as a tank cannon

#

This joke sucks

solid hinge
#

Because we needed a smokeless repeater

rose pilot
solid hinge
#

And liked the magazine

primal sage
#

So...would it not stand to reason we based our rifle design off the rifle we were using at the time?

drowsy finch
#

I feel the Garand firing pattern makes more sense as an SLR

solid hinge
#

NO

bitter imp
#

Doubt

solid hinge
#

God if dice could pay me to teach you things

bitter imp
#

^^

solid hinge
#

Anyway

calm meteor
#

J o h n s o n

solid hinge
#

Maybe

#

M1 garand is assault

#

Dead ass

#

Bar with m1919 for support

#

I liked the original BF4 bipod system

#

where it actually pivoted

#

Yea

#

not sure why they changed it

drowsy finch
#

I hope they give a realistic Garand reload while you still have ammunition

solid hinge
#

Probably

drowsy finch
#

With a 3% chance you snip off some skin on your thumb

solid hinge
#

Unless they add detachable mag.

drowsy finch
#

Disgusting

solid hinge
#

It was experimented with bar mags

#

Winchester

drowsy finch
#

It’s even more disgusting than the Gewehr detachable mags

#

At least the Gewehr used them

#

Even if Germany never made enough for people to bother

solid hinge
#

Tbh the g43 was in part a response to the mkb-42

#

Mind you they got both eventually

dusky saffron
#

I actually

#

like the ribeye

#

it's nice

solid hinge
#

Because mkb became the fucking stg

little fjord
#

Me too... ribeye is good

drowsy finch
#

Credit to Walther for making a solid late war weapon

solid hinge
#

better then the mauser g41

#

Anyway

#

Mind you mp43, mp44 and stg 44 are all the same gun

#

"But mike, why was it called mp"

dense bone
#

drop that knowledge on us

#

my body is ready

solid hinge
#

Fooled the fuck out of some Austrian corporal who had no business in arms procurement

#

"Totally a new smg, an improved mp40"

#

"K"

drowsy finch
#

Austrian

#

Don’t you mean

#

Greater Germany

solid hinge
#

Then some general said new rifle a year later and Hitler p much ver batem said

#

"What the fuck are you talking about"

icy sluice
#

Can we please only get the BAR as a tank cannon replacement though?

solid hinge
#

While he was less then enthused, some dipshit in the fucking army inventory renamed the mp44 to stg 44

trim token
#

Does anyone know if the no repair challenge in the last tiger war story is fixed or not?

little fjord
#

I can't decide if I like the Selbstlader or gewehr more

solid hinge
#

why use SLRs when all Assault Rifles are OP tho

#

the ribeyrolles and the m1907 especially

#

not to mention the stg 1-5

dense bone
#

what IS op?1

#

im STOMPING with the 1-5

#

it feels pretty op

solid hinge
#

the top 3 op right now is Stg 1-5, Ribey and the KE7

hmm

For the love of God, tankers need to stop abandoning their tanks. I really hate getting my tank destroyed by 2 Panzers, a chruchhill, and a valentine at the same time,

#

If you are in a tank its ride or die

#

the Lewis Gun also seems to have some weird TTD-sided registration issues, it sometimes feels like you get killed in half a second from full hp

dense bone
#

lewis is consistently dropping me quick

#

i just assumed it was stupidly accurate while bipod

primal sage
#

It is.

#

@solid hinge That's why I have a saying.

#

"Use it or Lose it."

dense bone
#

so its stupid accurate, and it had TTD problem

primal sage
#

You either keep with your tank and stop the enemy from taking it...

#

...or you abandon it, get shot, and have the enemy take it from you.

#

@primal sage a good captain falls with his ship. /s

solid hinge
#

If you’re going to abandon it, MAKE SURE TO BLOW IT UP

drowsy finch
#

A good tanker drops all their AT mines on their own tank before leaving

solid hinge
#

Scuttle it

#

Exactly

#

Tbh it should be a button or someshit

#

Hell in bf4 i think it had tanks on fire would explode

#

If not fixee

shadow verge
#

it would be cool if it was a specialization or something - like if its below 10% and u exit it blows up

#

OR A BOOBY TRAP

solid hinge
#

Yes

#

The worst is when you’re a tank gunner and you’re under fire, then you realized the fucking driver dipped and you’re doomed

#

Ride

#

Or

#

Die

#

P R E A C H

dense bone
#

thats why i dont use vehicles, you gotta have someone you depend on, and im usually solo

#

so fuck randos

solid hinge
#

Very true

#

I really wish I could get a good tank squad

shadow verge
#

@dense bone i used to be the same - i dont like vehicles that much. and if i do tank, I usually stick to the staghound/pz38

#

@solid hinge same, but the game doesn't facilitate that b/c turret gunners are always exposed

solid hinge
#

vehicle mounted mgs also kill far too quickly for my taste

#

they just instagib you with no counter

shadow verge
#

idk, i thought they were pretty underpowered in bf1/4 - i like it that they are more lethal now

solid hinge
#

They were super underpowered in bf1, I love it now

shadow verge
#

also its the TTD bug - it always feels like you die in one frame even though the other guys screen shows him drilling you 10+ times

little fjord
#

When I'm in the uber tank I have no idea what's going on

solid hinge
#

Also they have limited view so you have to flank tanks

little fjord
#

All the guns are weird

#

"Panzer da doom!"

grizzled stag
#

Great, I have roughly 100 hours in BFV from the time I had Origin Premium Access (or whatever) and not a single disconnect. Brought the game now and in 2 hours I have had 3 disconnects...

#

and the lvkrnmckaem look up challenge still doesn't work

shadow verge
#

yeah, but the guns are a little more flexible - not quite bf4 but not quite bf1 either

zinc valley
#

Yo lads

#

tryna do the V1 rocket challenge

#

but it never appears in the top right in the pause menu

grizzled stag
#

Did you try joining via Tides of War?

zinc valley
#

yeah

grizzled stag
#

then it is just bugged

shadow verge
#

@zinc valley i would, but i won't be back from holiday till sat.

zinc valley
#

okay hun

solid hinge
#

Yeah I’ve dropped like 4 V1s and gotten 2+ kills and it still hasn’t rewarded me

drowsy finch
#

PC sorry

#

I’m also at work so double sorry

outer ingot
#

bang out

solid hinge
#

Oof sorry for you m8

shadow verge
#

@solid hinge i think there's a bug where u dont get ToW assignments unless you join a game through the ToW menu

drowsy finch
#

I got all the other ones just fine without that though @shadow verge

#

It’s just the V1 one that’s broken

solid hinge
#

Yeah there definitely is a bug there I’ve noticed that as well @shadow verge although I feel that sometimes the kills don’t track correctly

shadow verge
#

@solid hinge yeah ive had the same thing. Its the inconsistancy that drives me nuts. Like if it was just flat out broken instead of SOMETIMES giving me the reward I wouldnt rip out my hair as much

drowsy finch
#

Kill counted assignments are pretty broken as a rule

#

For instance I’m 80% sure the explosives kills tracker is based off which weapon you use

shadow verge
#

also, has anyone noticed that sometimes their assignments reset between games or the progression is backtracked?

#

Like say in one game you do 10 out of 20 kills, then the next day u log in and check the assignement and now it says u only got 8 out of 20 or something

#

maybe its just me, like ill get disconnected and then my progress wont save im not sure

put over 15 hours into trying to get this rocket challenge to complete

grizzled stag
#

Lets just assume DICE are going to give it to us, lest they want a true Tide of War 😄

solid hinge
#

im increasingly frustrated that they can't make an engine they've been working on for years just function correctly

#

They didn't give the VGO out and i had to get like 14 stationary weapon kills for that

drowsy finch
#

It seems the assignments work at first then break after a while

solid hinge
#

Mine usually break and then work

drowsy finch
#

Because I know I managed to hang out all the first week in the first day or two but I got on late for this week and the V1 just doesn’t work

solid hinge
#

I've had issues with every single one this week

#

The rocket one just isn't working though

#

This is lame as fuck cause it's not like it's easy to get a rocket in the first place

#

You have to rely really heavily on your team

#

And if you aren't squad leader you have to trust some other person not to fire it into your own points

dense bone
#

im glad i dont want that hideous helmet

icy sluice
#

I got it 👀

solid hinge
#

I want it for recon

little fjord
#

Well they get a pass on this one... don't care a ton about the helmet

As long as the next 2 tides of war events aren't bugged

solid hinge

what on earth makes you think they won't be?

little fjord

The first one wasn't

#

🤷

solid hinge
#

yeah it was

#

it absolutely was

dusky saffron
#

I gotta say

little fjord
#

I was able to do them all

dusky saffron
#

I didn't have any problems doing the assignments

#

except the very first one for the VGO

wild oxide
#

I mean, I was able to do them without any problems, but there were issues for quite a number of people

dusky saffron
#

yeah

#

dice needs to fix it

solid hinge
#

I don't consider having to do something 14 times when it says do it once, functioning correctly

#

If my rocket challenge works like my stationary weapon challenge im gonna have to get two kills with it 14 times

#

maybe i can get a 28 kill and skip ahead

little fjord
#

Well not being able to unlock the next 2 weapons would trigger people... I just hope it goes smoother

solid hinge
#

A buncha people couldn't get the VGO

little fjord
#

That sucks

wild oxide
#

Luckily they're making it so you can buy the weapons, like the VGO is something like 1.7k CC

#

So not too much

little fjord
#

Cheap

Not really sure if people can buy the Ratburner helmet though, guess we'll find out tomorrow

people hiding in bushes are the worst

where are my support mains?

is slug or buck better on Trench?

Maybe the bushes are hiding near the people?

i don't know i don't use shit shotguns

main rock

I dunno! I'd guess slug would be better on the 12g?

not 12g

the trench

So buckshot for trench

trench's range is 0

little fjord

😏

dense bone

intentional?

main rock
#

slug kinda giives you range but you need to HS

solid hinge
#

It's firerate is way lower than the other shotgun

main rock
#

buck range is literally face

solid hinge
#

For a tiny damage increase

main rock
#

you get RoF at 4

solid hinge

Even then it doesn't match the other one I don't think

#

I don't really understand the point of it

main rock

it's a legendary gun ok lirikRE

nice

little fjord
#

It's not super different than the 12g?

solid hinge
#

it does LOOK cooler

amber notch
#

your class violates server rules

#

sweet

solid hinge
#

No it's stats are almost identical

amber notch
#

cant even use me new gun specs

solid hinge
#

Other than a firerate decrease

#

which is why the drilling is best

little fjord
#

Maybe it has 2 more pellets

#

Should force noobs to use shotgun

solid hinge
#

5 in each gun

#

12g has 138 firerate trench has 100

#

It has like.. a centimetre of extra damage

#

Maybe smaller

little fjord

Then I wouldn't log into servers with 25 people all camping 200m from the objectives

Where are you getting this data... is there a bfv symthic?

dusky saffron

who knows

looking at the stats in game

midnight nimbus

iirc all shotguns share the same damage model

solid hinge

It says the drilling and the trench have higher damage

midnight nimbus
#

there's data mined files

solid hinge

I have specs on the drilling but naturally it said it had higher damage too

midnight nimbus

and i just ask for stats of upcoming guns

I wouldn't be surprised if it didn't though

God, I really hate being a tank in Battlefield games

I like the tanks in bfv

Wtf I just got kicked to the black screen mid round for no reason

Is this a known bug?

main rock
#

just tried buck

dense bone
#

@tribal cairn why?

main rock
#

slug felt more consistent

#

longer range

tribal cairn
#

Mainly because of how many people main assault and begin to gangbang you without a fight

#

Turn a corner, AT guns

#

Maybe 3-5 of them

The problem is that hardly anyone plays tank gunners

#

Being a tank gunner is a very honourable, or stupid position.

#

It depends on the perspective.

dense bone
#

fuckin nazi

tribal cairn
#

It's honorable indeed because the tank crew depends on the Gunners and driver

solid hinge
#

A tank gunner needs to be specific with his shots, not attract enemy attention and gun down fuckers with dynamite.

dense bone
#

i wanna run a tank squad

solid hinge
#

A tiger tank with a full gunner crew who co-operate to their full potential is TERRIFYING.

dense bone
#

see what its like to have teammates have your ass

solid hinge
#

But... then there are the dumb fucks.

tribal cairn
#

I enjoy competent crew members

dense bone
#

i dont use vehicles at all

#

only as a spawn point

solid hinge
#

You know who I'm talking about. Doesn't duck to avoid sniperfire in open areas, shoots and gains the attention of all tanks and assaults, misses their shots, aim for assault planes?

#

Fuck those dudes.

WHO. THE FUCK. AIMS AT A PLANE. IN A TANK.

#

I love playing gunner more than driver tbh but it’s really depends on whether the driver positions the tank effectively

#

Also, what's the most effective tiger loadout?

tribal cairn
#

I don't like being the driver, then I put a great burden on the crew if I mess up

solid hinge
#

That’s true, I do like driving the panzer 38t tho

rose pilot
#

I like being the gunner only when there's communication between the crew.

solid hinge

That tank has all interior gunner positions and it’s really maneuverable

Also true @rose pilot

For BFV, what are crews like? Just driver and Gunner and secondary Gunners like in the other game?

On Xbox

solid hinge
#

My loadout for the Tiger 1 is called "Please stay the fuck away from me".

Zimmerit, Improvised Transverse Rotation, Reinforced Turret Ring, S-mine Launcher.

#

you can aim quickly and efficiently without having your eye stuck down your scope for days on end

#

I'm going for the HEAT-T round but if it's shit im swapping to yours Gnos

#

Zimmerit so nobody detonates shitty sticky grenades on me, improvised transverse rotation to ensure I can turn around and fuck you up, Reinforced turret ring because I still want to turn around to fuck you up and S-mine launcher for those fancy dynomite fucks.

icy sluice
#

How does Sticky Grenades and Zimmerit look like?

solid hinge
#

I haven’t upgraded any tanks yet... usually I’m just gunner on other people’s tanks. Plus the coin system sucks so I don’t wanna spend a lot on tanks rn

#

Zimmerit just makes it roll off

#

Yeap.

dusky saffron
#

zimmerit is great

#

since there are always the sneaky fuckin assaults everywhere

#

doing nothing but waiting to c4

solid hinge
#

Technically sticky dynamite doesn't stick either but they can just airburst it

#

Yeah.

#

With a tiger tank, airbursting is easier.

bitter imp
#

Or placed on the ground and poop underneath

solid hinge
#

The tiny tank is terrifying with its anti infantry potential

#

I'm hoping HEAT-T rounds will make the tiger like.. actually kill things

#

The Panzer 38T is amazing

#

Not sure what to go for with the allies

#

Gun carrier or mk vii

#

Idk tbh I love the German tanks so much more

#

But with my Panzer 38T "And fuck you, and you, and you too!" Loadout (Zimmerit, Flare Launcher, KWK 38 L/55 AutoCannon), I can zoom by and they blow themselves up.

dusky saffron
#

mk vii

#

The German tanks and planes seem better

They... really are.

I try the gun carrier but I had to use over half my ammo on one tiger

what's the point

dusky saffron
#

makes it easier to get flanked tbh

Did you shoot the front?

solid hinge
#

It was tilted and I was aiming for the side armour

tribal cairn
#

It was angling it's armor then

solid hinge
#

There goes my helmet..

#

I just want the Dunkelgrau paint for my Tiger

tribal cairn
#

That's why it took so long

#

Surely shooting the weak side armour doesn't matter if it's tilted?

#

Like

#

You're gonna penetrate it

tribal cairn
#

You would be surprised

solid hinge
#

that's how it fuckin worked in war thunder

#

So the gun carrier is even shitter because it can't angle itself

#

and the mk vii gets a howitzer enhancement

#

The gun carrier has a lot of blind spots which sucks

#

The turret is so low down too

#

Idk why ppl use it

#

it looks like it's heavy anti-tank tank

@vernal plover lit

Pretty much I just use tanks for anti infantry mostly

Valentine is the tank for people without a buddy to help them

solid hinge
#

Assaults will destroy the other tanks

drowsy finch
#

Tanks are made for killing other tanks

#

Everyone knows that

solid hinge
#

Depends on the tank I use the 38T

drowsy finch
#

At least in WWII and onward

#

Well see the 38T is outdated

solid hinge
#

Valentine is lame

#

Only one other slot for crew

#

Plus it’s a top gunner

#

=Death

#

The 38t definitely ain't outdated in this

drowsy finch
#

The tank if you don’t have a buddy

#

TBH the top guns are great

#

Though the best is probably the M3 HT because of how fast it is

#

Harder to get shot

#

But they melt people

solid hinge
#

They would be if 70% of the server wasn't walking around with something that has a 3x scope

drowsy finch
#

What’s handy is taking an M3 around the busy flank of Aerodrome and killing every sniper camping on the rocks

solid hinge
#

it's so easy to kill top gunners

#

Top gunner is good I’d just rather be front gunner

#

The first respawn point on a transport should be the front gunner

#

Not the top gunner

#

Front gunner can see basically everything they can but without being v vulnerable

#

There should be a way to close the top hatch when shit gets crazy

#

“Oh fuck this I’m outta here”

drowsy finch
#

Front gunner is a little OP on halftracks

solid hinge
#

German half track generally doesn't have a problem with that

drowsy finch
#

What are you supposed to do as a medic or recon lol

solid hinge
#

Great question lol

lime stirrup
#

Being able to be "inside" the tank would be cool, maybe while you wait for the action to cool down you can clean the remains of the previous gunner off the walls

solid hinge
#

😂

drowsy finch
#

Ducking works just fine if you ask me

#

Just sucks having to hold the button down

#

It’s not like button down would change anything

#

DICE wouldn’t model that change

lime stirrup
#

everything else has a toggle option, don't see why not

solid hinge
#

I'd prefer recon to get sticky dynamite than AP mines

#

AP mines on recon are shit anyway

lime stirrup
#

that would be amazing Ayla

solid hinge
#

Mine toggles?

dusky saffron
#

speaking of ap mines

#

what is the secondary gadget for sniper

drowsy finch
#

AP mines are great

dusky saffron
#

in that category

solid hinge
#

Assault already gets anti tank mines

dusky saffron
#

cause I know you can replace the scope with flares

drowsy finch
#

I never run smoke rifle on medic

solid hinge
#

Sniper gets a spawn beacon and a sniper decoy

dusky saffron
#

ahh

#

decoy is awful

#

:>

solid hinge
#

The spawn beacon is ridiculously good

dusky saffron
#

ye

solid hinge
#

No point picking anything else

#

AP mines are best on support

#

With an ammo crate you can give yourself two

drowsy finch
#

Lies medic mine best mine

solid hinge
#

That's an instant kill

#

Smoke rifle + smoke grades = best medic

dusky saffron
#

I'd rather carry the at pistol

#

since you can disable tanks

#

as a lesser assault

solid hinge
#

It's pretty shit for that

dusky saffron
#

eh

#

depends on where you hit

#

a 38t drove into C on rotterdam

solid hinge
#

I'd rather die defending a point and respawn as assault

dusky saffron
#

two shots took out the engine and turret

solid hinge
#

Ok that's true but that tank is also made of cardboard

#

When I run into a tank as a medic I really have no counter so I just throw a ton of smoke grenades at it and blind it

dusky saffron
#

still works as a vehicle buster

solid hinge
#

At that point you may as well take tank mines

dusky saffron
#

noe

solid hinge
#

I usually play defensive support though

dusky saffron
#

ah

#

I play offensively

#

so there's the gadget difference 🙃

solid hinge
#

I like the fortification building and stuff

drowsy finch
#

I would rather bum fish with AT mines

solid hinge
#

heh

drowsy finch
#

At least then you’ll kill it

dusky saffron
#

I play as an offensive engineer though

drowsy finch
#

Or respawn as assault

dusky saffron
#

I don't see the benefits as the other trait

drowsy finch
#

Machine gunner spots that’s about it

dusky saffron
#

yeah nah

#

I wouldnt have that

#

I like repairing stuff

#

as support

solid hinge
#

You get suppression marks anyway

drowsy finch
#

Default repair speed is fine though

solid hinge

The big red diamond

#

It just doesn't spot them
