[earnest mirage]

I run ~60 uncapped

[solid hinge]

One of iron skins assignments is to kill a plane with an assault launcher or one of those AT cannons

[earnest mirage]

Anybody know why the Nordlys challenges won't track

[shrewd gazelle]

cuz the game is still in beta

will release sometime in april

huehuehue

@half wolf update ur GPU drivers and check in-game settings again? becuz it defaults sometimes

[stoic breach]

@ancient thistle I had to switch off the weapon and switch back to change over

Reload cancel

[half wolf]

@shrewd gazelle yerp, did both

Also I'm like 95% sure they stealth nerfed the splash damage of the PIAT and the frag rifle (thank god)

direct hits only do 90 damage now, it seems

[kindred orchid]

It's okay, I use it to crumble buildings on top of people hiding in them.

The PIAT at least, I don't ever use the frag rifle.

[half wolf]

Yeah, I usually roll PIAT/dynamite for spicing up tanks

But I just got Assault Mastery II assignment so now I'm bummed.

[kindred orchid]

Oh. Lol.

[half wolf]

Because now I need to do 5800 damage with explosives since I can't get a single fucking kill with them

[kindred orchid]

I think you'll still get kills, cause attrition.

Maybe not as many, or as easily.

[half wolf]

I hate being forced to run around with my explosives out as my primary

[kindred orchid]

I hate that you have to do that too. 😛

[half wolf]

I hate the people who do it, but I understand why, because the assignment just encourages it.

DICE really needs to rework them to encourage positive gameplay

like "destroy X vehicles with explosives"

or "do X damage to vehicles with explosives"

[tribal ledge]

What is the default key for push to talk?

[amber notch]

Left alt

[solid hinge]

What key uses the medkits. I just got the game last night and forgot to look, and now its updating

and I forgot from the beta

[amber notch]

You mean how do you use it

C or 3

[earnest mirage]

Why do people ask that question. Literally just look in you key bindings

[amber notch]

If you are playing medic you press 3 to give medic pouches to players and yourself

@earnest mirage nothing wrong with asking.

[earnest mirage]

I know but the answer is within a couple clicks

I don't know

[half wolf]

Huh, the push to talk button disappeared from my game

[amber notch]

Assign it to another one

[sudden siren]

What is this game

I'm driving my jeep down a road and suddenly a jet flies over and obliterates me instantly

I've been driving around for like 10 minutes

[solid hinge]

@earnest mirage reading is hard. I just said the update is downloading. pretty hard to launch the game

[fresh gazelle]

@earnest mirage doesn't for me either. I heard deleting configs and letting game recreate helps but haven't tried. Hopefully it does

Those unlocks are so boring too. Wish they'd say "complete on highest difficulty" instead

Feels so brainless to grind easy over and over

[sudden siren]

Hardcore war stories

Are legit

So fucking bad

I got instantly killed from 100 - 0 by some random dude with an mp40 across the desert

[amber notch]

Well it’s hardcore for a reason

[icy sluice]

But hey... you get an achievement

[solid hinge]

Just replayed bf4 for the first time in a while

Movement is so slow

And grenades are thrown like bricks

[sudden siren]

What's more dangerous

A fucking tank

[amber notch]

Good old battlefield 4

[sudden siren]

Or some random dude with an AR teleporting into my base

[amber notch]

[sudden siren]

Because the game does that

[solid hinge]

Bf4 is best

But i feel like an old lady when i run lol

Bfv spoiled me in that regard

[sudden siren]

I wish games would stop forcing difficulty

They make the game artificially difficult

This game literally just teleports a bunch of soldiers into your base

[amber notch]

[fleet mantle]

to be fair, teleporting is pretty hardcore

[indigo harness]

[solid hinge]

Germany built a chronosphere

10/10 crossover dice

[fleet mantle]

the ragdolls in this game are so awesome

https://gfycat.com/illinformedmeanhuman

this one had me cracking up

[solid hinge]

Do people still ascend to the heavens by their belt?

[sudden siren]

Hahahahahahahahaha

They drop smokes

and they can shoot me through the smoke

So it doesn't fuck up their vision

I have to kill a bunch of 2 shot kill aimbot soldiers that teleport in under smoke :DD

[solid hinge]

then trick is to stop caring about trophies

If it isnt fun, stop

[amber notch]

^

[fleet mantle]

playing games to have fun in 2019

[amber notch]

If you aren’t getting 5000kills a game you are bad

[weak violet]

Sup

[solid hinge]

only 5000? uninstall

[amber notch]

Only

[fleet mantle]

5000kills while prone on an objective and hipfiring *

[weak violet]

@amber notch lol in my 130 hours of bf1 I don’t even overall have 5000 kills

[solid hinge]

dont say it outloud it'll be a new assignment

[weak violet]

26 objective kills with hip firing in one life

[sudden siren]

this is comically retarded

I have to shoot down 4 strafing planes with an AA gun

[solid hinge]

CC needs to be granted at about 10% of round score. That way the game isn't ruined by assignments

[sudden siren]

At once

And if you go out of cover they instantly kill you

[weak violet]

I bet they would add that

[sudden siren]

This is entirely RNG

[buoyant epoch]

Why do people cheat in FPS games. I really don't understand why. I'm not even mad, I just don't get why.

[solid hinge]

Because they can, to mess with people, to prove how easy it is

[fleet mantle]

some people just want to piss other people off

[solid hinge]

numerous reasons

[buoyant epoch]

Like I'm bad player but I've never cheated.

[weak violet]

Because they eat shit like me

1 kill per round boys

That’s my average

[amber notch]

Wait really?

[buoyant epoch]

My KD is like 1.1

[amber notch]

Not to toot my own horn but avg 60 kills a game

[strong parrot]

yikes

[sudden siren]

Okay this is fucking ridiculous

[strong parrot]

well...you get that OCE noob farm time

[sudden siren]

A tank comes in

Literally immediately as it spawns it fires off a shell that instakills me

[amber notch]

OCE noob farm

[strong parrot]

war stories is literally pointless to play on higher difficulties

I imagine oce has even worse players than EU so just goes to reason that you would average 60 kills a game

[amber notch]

OCE is sweaty asf

Lmao

[strong parrot]

lmao...where did the tearm sweaty/sweats start for this

god i hate that

[fleet mantle]

the level of sweat in my region goes up the later it gets

[amber notch]

Early in the day it’s noobs everywhere

[fleet mantle]

i was off work and go to play during the day for once and it was a very noticeable difference

[solid hinge]

Wow public squad conquest games.......

[amber notch]

Night is when the big bois come our

Out

[solid hinge]

Absolute cancer

[strong parrot]

you either full stomp or get full stomp

[solid hinge]

I just played a game where the rest of my squad got a tank stuck in a stairway on Hamada and spent the entire game trying to get it out

[wild cape]

Lol

[solid hinge]

We still won tho lol

The other team were absolutely inept

[gray glade]

so, did they?

[sudden siren]

This is absolutely retarded

On hardcore the AI are literally jesus christ as an army

They never miss

[amber notch]

Stop playing the war stories then

If it’s such a pain

As said earlier

[strong parrot]

yes...AI difficulty is dumb, play on an easier setting

[sudden siren]

Finally beat that shit

[misty cosmos]

GG

[sudden siren]

The other should be easier

This one is a problem because they can instakill you from a mile away

The other ones are more cqb

All letters too

[solid hinge]

hardcore AI just means you camp behind cover until they run round

[amber notch]

Pretty much

[solid hinge]

oh god I love frontlines

24 - 8 on Rotterdam with most melees and sidearm kills

It seems easier to hit heads

People's bodies aren't moving as much

[sudden siren]

Frontlines and Breakthrough are 10/10

[solid hinge]

Got the MAS!

At last

[sudden siren]

Congrats my dude

[amber notch]

@solid hinge

[solid hinge]

Time to stick that on vehicle buster and never use assault again

[amber notch]

Honestly this

[sudden siren]

There's no achievement for the last tiger?

🤔

[solid hinge]

Post release content

Oh I got the plat

That was kinda easy.. I've never got a platinum trophy before

[amber notch]

Platinum trophies

[solid hinge]

😏

Pow what's the best sight for the MAS

[sudden siren]

X3

[primal sage]

Holy shit DICE, can you nerf the fucking Spitfire x8?!

[solid hinge]

no

[primal sage]

That fucking shit is just a LASER BEAM.

It kills literally everything INSTANTLY and makes it IMPOSSIBLE to ever fight back.

[solid hinge]

and

[primal sage]

And that's completely and utterly OP and makes it so you can't ever be killed?

[solid hinge]

?

[primal sage]

And go 50 in 0?

[azure lark]

lol, they took away the chauchat from people who had it, based on what I've read.

[solid hinge]

have you tried getting good

[primal sage]

Have you heard of getting blocked?

[solid hinge]

yes

[primal sage]

And what does it matter if "I" have to "Get gud"?

Clearly he doesn't.

[echo sand]

@azure lark They certainly did, lol

I woke up this morning and mine was gone

[primal sage]

Once you get the Spitfire x8, you enable easy mode.

[azure lark]

😦

[primal sage]

"Left click to kill everything".

[echo sand]

Lol, serves me right bro

Can't wait until it's added to the game though... was having a lot of fun with it

[azure lark]

20 round magazine?

[echo sand]

Can't remember off hand

[azure lark]

at least the mag was under the gun instead of over it like the obnoxious bren gun

[echo sand]

Sounds about right

[amber notch]

@solid hinge 3x

[primal sage]

I'm still waiting on an answer.

[solid hinge]

no

Am I missing something, or is flying on M/KB the worst thing ever

[primal sage]

M/KB what?

[echo sand]

@azure lark Yep 20 rds... just checked a screenshot I took

[solid hinge]

mouse keyboard

[ancient ocean]

[echo sand]

@solid hinge It's all about your key bindings

[solid hinge]

Well, I control it with a mouse

[echo sand]

Look up Niccaman's tutorial on YT

[solid hinge]

And if feels unresponsive

[echo sand]

It helped me a lot

[solid hinge]

ok

What’s the scoring system based off

In squad conquest

[ancient ocean]

Flags

[solid hinge]

We just dominated a game completely and lost by 20 and I don’t get it

[ancient ocean]

You also lose tickets for dieing

[solid hinge]

You're the blue team

[azure lark]

Hold two flags and go full defense

[echo sand]

@solid hinge It might be a BF1 tutorial, but will work for BFV I'm sure

[solid hinge]

Yeah but we were also solid

We had two flags the entire game and most of us had better kds

[ancient ocean]

Rotterdam is the best for that

[azure lark]

needed more medics then I guess

[solid hinge]

Ugh, rotterdam squad conquest is basically the new metro

[echo sand]

@solid hinge And I think one by MattiAceGaming on YT is about the same as Niccaman's

[ancient ocean]

You take b and just hold half the map

[south lynx]

@solid hinge Try flying with an actual HOTAS. It's worse.

[echo sand]

Maybe some pilots here can help you as well

I don't fancy myself one

[solid hinge]

wtf is a HOTAS

[fathom pebble]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HOTAS

thats HOTAS

[solid hinge]

Most people just say flightstick, but cool, I learned something

[fathom pebble]

@south lynx wouldnt recommend in BFV or any BF in general since they arent rly designed for people to fly with HOTAS

[ancient ocean]

Hoes over take all sities

[south lynx]

Flightsticks aren't all HOTAS though.

[fathom pebble]

yeh

[solid hinge]

Has the mp40 been patched it feels amazing

Patched I mean buffed

no

[south lynx]

@fathom pebble Yeah I know, but I apparently have a masochistic streak.

[fathom pebble]

normally HOTAS is better for simulators or idk games like Arma 3

[solid hinge]

ya, anyway. Good to know. I just tried using the plane in war stories and literally couldn't pull up in time to miss the ground after dragging my mouse back for 7 miles

[echo sand]

MP40 buff you say?

[ancient ocean]

Is the Thomson not that good because i haven't really seen many people talk about it.

[solid hinge]

It’s feeling better than the stg but maybe it’s just the game I’m in

[echo sand]

Yeah, Thompson is my fav sub

[solid hinge]

Thompson got a little spec nerf but should still be good

the ZK feels so damn nice

should almost be a crime

[echo sand]

It is... probably a close tie for me between the ZK and the Thompson to be fair

[ancient ocean]

I got accused of aimbot one time when I was using the ZK

[south lynx]

@solid hinge That sounds like a settings issue, double check your sensitivity for planes?

[solid hinge]

I'm using the accurate mode at the moment and boy

You just shoot forever

ya probably

[south lynx]

Accurate mode?

[ancient ocean]

You can can a big mag or better accuracy

[south lynx]

Ah.

[ancient ocean]

Get*

[solid hinge]

man dont ya just LOVE tankers who do jack shit but sit in a god damned corner all match

fucking lardasses

[echo sand]

@solid hinge Haha, preach

[ancient ocean]

I have the bigger mag because it already has a bipod

[solid hinge]

On the ZK you either get a rpm increase that fucks the accuracy but makes it very fast or a mag increase with accuracy specs

[south lynx]

Depends on the tank really.

Something like the Tiger or Churchill GC basically has to sit back a bit.

[solid hinge]

AA tanks airfield

[south lynx]

The mediums and lights can be more aggressive.

[solid hinge]

The lights are great at camping too though

[south lynx]

Oh, AA tanks should be doing infantry support for sure.

[solid hinge]

basically their borderline 40 IQ 1 braincell thought is this:

Specially with spotting scope

I now look like a proper German with my cap

[wary mason]

Several people are typing...

[solid hinge]

"huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuur i sit back"

[echo jasper]

Flying with mouse and keyboard eh? @solid hinge my best tip is to rebind spacebar to pitch up. Then you don't need to constantly drag your mouse in dogfights etc

[solid hinge]

"i have auto cannon"

people who pick AA tanks on modes with no planes are scumbums

[ancient ocean]

Yeah I put the Pak 40 anti tank cannon and ap rounds on my Panzer

[echo jasper]

Works wonders

[solid hinge]

ah, that's smart

Lol yes

Really wanna use my tiger skin

[wary mason]

also remember to unbind shooting from space

👀

[solid hinge]

Space is shoot for planes?

odd choice

[south lynx]

Pff. Just shoot the sky to punish it for defying you.

[wary mason]

by default, yes

[solid hinge]

that several people are typing did me a confuse for a second

[fathom pebble]

pitch up on my space keybind

[wary mason]

todays patch was great

solved couple issues

[solid hinge]

I'm having a lot of success with headshots and shooting while moving

[echo jasper]

Best bind in-game @fathom pebble

[solid hinge]

Feels good

[ancient ocean]

Honestly the best anti Infantry tank is just getting a bomber stuck on the ground and using the Tom gunner seat.

[wary mason]

I just want that Firestorm now 😩

[sonic rampart]

^

[ancient ocean]

Top*

[echo sand]

Vaulting and prone feels much better... and bipods 👌

[solid hinge]

Firestorm is the genres last chance for me to not right off BR forever

[wary mason]

Firestorm, if good will probably be my main gamemode

i want it

[solid hinge]

Imagine a BR with functional vehicles and graphics from this year

[sleek verge]

[indigo harness]

i just want any new content

[echo jasper]

Btw,are players more easily triggered and quick with hackusations atm or am really that unlucky being targeted so often.

[strong parrot]

but it wont be 100 people...total failure!

[solid hinge]

Recent video showed blatant hackers getting away with it

[sleek verge]

Can you ban pow please? We signed a petition @wary mason

[solid hinge]

so they're probably primed to accuse

[indigo harness]

hopefully when the game fully releases with BR its hopefully an upgoing curve

[wary mason]

i can!

but will I

🤔

[strong parrot]

whats your price

[sleek verge]

It would GREATLY benefit the server as a whole

[wary mason]

[sleek verge]

I'll pay you in trident layers

[strong parrot]

think of it....one less Australian on here right?

[sleek verge]

Imagine

Prosperity

[solid hinge]

welp

new patch

same shitty teams

gg dice

[echo jasper]

Why are some forced with a 20gb dl and then the 4gb patch?

3 of my friends where forced to dl a 20gb patch first before getting today's patch🤔

While me and other only had 4gb to dl

[wary mason]

it verifies about 20gb of files

doesn't download them

does that every BF Patch since BF1 i think

[ancient ocean]

I feel like them having so little maps in the game is going to make people lose interest faster because even if they do add in more along the rode people well already have gotten board of the other's so any new ones will become boring faster because they already know everything about the old ones.

[solid hinge]

im really starting to get tired of people shooting me when half their head is visible

how is the gun coming out of your hairline

[ancient ocean]

His her is a gun

Hair*

[south lynx]

@echo jasper Hackusations getting more common is a long term trend.

[solid hinge]

like i was shooting a German who kept bobbing up and down peak firing and his head didn't even come up high enough for me to see his face

[south lynx]

So depending on when you're comparing to the answer is either yes, or fuck yes.

[solid hinge]

It was literally just his helmet

Wow I just used the 12 gauge for the first time

3 shots point blank to the chest

No kill

Mad

Shotgun is very...

I was just trying it out cause we were killing them

But god damn is it terrible

[ancient ocean]

The drilling and the pump are so good they are all I've been using the lest couple of days but the 12g sucks.

[solid hinge]

Also I’m guessing cc is still glitched in some way cause end of round it’s been telling me I’ve been getting 2.5k a game

[azure lark]

end of round screen is wrong

[solid hinge]

Yeah ik

[azure lark]

they've said this about 100 times

Have you used the Drilling after the latest patch?

[ancient ocean]

Where does it even say how many you get at the end of round screen.

[solid hinge]

Nah I’m Levelling up support atm don’t think I’ve unlocked it

[ancient ocean]

I've been using the drilling all day seems the same.

[solid hinge]

I’ve got medic and support each to level 13 but just keep on completely forgetting I’m grinding them and I’m still using assault 3x as much as both

[echo sand]

@azure lark How is the Drilling after the patch?

[solid hinge]

The Lewis gun is feeling op as hell as well

It’s feeling like battlefield 1 level op rn for me

[echo sand]

Yeah, I've always liked the Lewis

Especially with 3X

[azure lark]

I used the drilling last night in squad conquest and did terrible. I need to use it more to verify

[echo sand]

Same, I'm terrible with it @azure lark

Lol

I was wondering if something changed with it

[ancient ocean]

The long range round on it is so good it's honestly better then any of the snipers.

[echo sand]

Oh I've seen videos of ppl headshotting with it like a sniper rifle 😄

[azure lark]

Please watch the video in this post https://www.reddit.com/r/BattlefieldV/comments/al0ul7/is_the_drilling_supposed_to_be_this_bad/

I swear most of those would have been easy kills before the patch

[echo sand]

I can't do it

[ancient ocean]

It's a one shot to the head.

[echo sand]

Guess I should give it another go

[dusky saffron]

Uh

Shotguns from that range do that much damage

or so it did when I used the 1987

@azure lark

[south lynx]

I forgot the patterning on shotguns in BF is so bad.

That's like "Sawed the entire barrel off just forward of the chamber" levels of bad compared to a real shotgun.

[solid hinge]

I’m gonna go into a sc game and try em out

The pump action how is it!

[dusky saffron]

all I'm saying is that at that range it doesn't kill on other shotguns

[solid hinge]

?

[dusky saffron]

specifically pumps

[solid hinge]

Hmmm

[dusky saffron]

so I guess they applied it to the drilling as well

which is fine

pos weapon

[solid hinge]

Guessing the range is still insane on it though

[azure lark]

he hit that one dude in the chest point blank and got 5 damage

wtf

[south lynx]

Guessing it was lag.

[dusky saffron]

you're talking about the first shot right

the damage falloff is hard

[south lynx]

Only tagged them with one pellet.

[dusky saffron]

doesn't matter if it's direct

[ancient ocean]

Ya I guess the shotgun itself is worse at longer range now but I mostly use the rifle part of it anyway.

[dusky saffron]

this goes for any shotgun

1987 at that range directed at the chest does that much

[south lynx]

Nah Alt, check the shot at the 0:29 mark

[azure lark]

well how were people one shotting me at close range with it before patch if this is how it's supposed to work?

[dusky saffron]

ah

didn't get that far

WHAT

LMAO

5 DAMAGE

[south lynx]

Point blank, dude takes 5 damage. It's got to be lag.

[dusky saffron]

Yeah

it's either lag or they changed the damage model

[south lynx]

To what?

[solid hinge]

Ok uh 4 shots with the pump no kill

[dusky saffron]

because I got oneshotted at the same range earlier today

on Panzer

@south lynx the first clip shows the idiot shooting at like 15m+ away

of course that's not gonna kill

unless it's a slug

if that was a thing with the drilling back then

[south lynx]

TBH I'd rather have shotguns with realistic patterning and just have the damage falloff adjusted.

[dusky saffron]

it wasn't like that for the other shotguns

[ancient ocean]

It's a double barrel it should be a lot more accurate then a pump.

[south lynx]

The crazy spread makes shotties weird and unreliable.

[dusky saffron]

that literally depends on the exit

it's not gonna snipe at 15m

[solid hinge]

Ok.

No points in using shotguns

[ancient ocean]

No points as in you shouldn't use it?

[little fjord]

Shotguns delete people 🤷

[lusty junco]

Hey guys

Was the update released ?

[ancient ocean]

Yes

[lusty junco]

What’s new v

[little fjord]

Frustrating in cqc.... so if people don't like or use them I'm ok with that 😆

[lusty junco]

?

[echo jasper]

Spitfire deletes people

[ancient ocean]

Bug fixes mostly

[echo jasper]

Should actually nerf it

🤔

[little fjord]

I wish the m1922 mg was next 😔

[ancient ocean]

And balancing

[solid hinge]

As much as I love the staghound it’s great to see you can actually fight it now, just got my wheel fucked by a panzerfaust

[little fjord]

I finally used the stag rockets

Vs a tank

Seemed ok... still don't know what their damage potential is

[south lynx]

In close, quite high. Volley them off then punch holes with the Littlejohn 2 pdr.

[ancient ocean]

I like the staghound too but if an explosion goes anywhere around it loses 1/3 of its health

[little fjord]

I'm on the fence as to whether that is better than ap autocannon

[dusky saffron]

I like both

[little fjord]

Stag is squishy... gotta hit and run

[dusky saffron]

Stag is meant for infantry mainly

or that's what I use it for with the spotting scope

[solid hinge]

Damn been kicked out of two consecutive games gg servers

[south lynx]

I love using the Stag to hunt armor.

It's an ambush assassin.

[dusky saffron]

Also rockets burst any tank

[ancient ocean]

What are the ap rounds like with the auto cannon

[dusky saffron]

same thing

[solid hinge]

Turns out they can now blow your wheel to smithereens

[dusky saffron]

it just shoots it out at the same rpm

[little fjord]

I might not have hit the tank in a vulnerable spot

[dusky saffron]

reminder that light tanks do not suffer from 2x back damage like the other tank classes

[south lynx]

I've used them to win tank fights, but I still don't have a good feel if they're super effective or not.

[little fjord]

I sorta snuck up and spewed the rockets and ran

[solid hinge]

I got ambushed by a Churchill in a tiger a few games ago and was just helpless as he had a clear shot on my rear

[little fjord]

Infantry blew it up right afterwards

[south lynx]

It's not like rockets where the burst damage is really obviously different.

[little fjord]

Gun carrier zeros you you're usually screwed

[solid hinge]

Lol the servers are absolutely fried on Xbox

Can’t even search for a game now

[ancient ocean]

Don't you only get like 10 ap rounds

[little fjord]

@dusky saffron so you prefer spotting scope over 20% dps?

I suppose it makes sense if you're not going to do much tank stalking

[dusky saffron]

I mean

I kill tanks regardless

[little fjord]

It sucks taking "deploy supplies" tho

[dusky saffron]

AP rounds hammer into lights and mediums

also

[south lynx]

Deploy Supplies is pretty good if you're rolling in support of infantry.

[dusky saffron]

I'm really enjoying new panzerstorm

looks better

[ancient ocean]

Ya but on the staghound autu cannon does it fire one at a time or automatic?

[south lynx]

Automatic.

[dusky saffron]

Auto cannon

it says it

like shooting an mmg

[little fjord]

It's powpowpowpowpow

[ancient ocean]

No for ap rounds

[dusky saffron]

automatic

same rpm

[little fjord]

Ap autocannon seems to work well for me

[dusky saffron]

only issue is that

you are given 90 AP rounds

but it takes 2/3rds of it

to kill a tank

[little fjord]

It's only enough for 1 tank attack

[dusky saffron]

^

then you'd resort back to 20mm

[south lynx]

Most of the AP rounds are like that though.

[ancient ocean]

OOOOOH that's what I was trying to figure out because I thought it would just give you 10

[south lynx]

You get enough for one fight and a bit left over.

[dusky saffron]

Nah

you'd get 10 on the 38t

but it's more towards ranged tank battles

still kills infantry well

[little fjord]

There's the psychological part too... pangpangpangpangpang people panic more than when getting hit with normal tank cannon

[marble phoenix]

Damn pretty soon it’s R.I.P. to squad Conquest, huh?

[dusky saffron]

ye

I just want squad tdm

[ancient ocean]

Yeah because when you get hit by anything in a tank it makes too hit noises.

[indigo harness]

So what was the idea of live service? is it just a fancy worth for bug fixes or what?

[marble phoenix]

Please add that

[dusky saffron]

Live service is just free content

[little fjord]

I usually play tdm to warm up but I've been preferring scq lately

[dusky saffron]

I mean it's masked over the bugfixes and whatnot

but it's more consistent

and a lot faster than BF1 of BF4

[ancient ocean]

I feel like them having so little maps in the game is going to make people lose interest faster because even if they do add in more along the rode people well already have gotten board of the other's so any new ones will become boring faster because they already know everything about the old ones.

[indigo harness]

Hmm i might actually be able to get all guns to mastery, before any major update

[ancient ocean]

Yeah there too busy fighting of the bugs.

[indigo harness]

ya its rly unlucky

[solid hinge]

are you supposed to shoot until you overheat in a plane?

[little fjord]

🤔

[ancient ocean]

No

I'm pretty sure it cools down faster if you don't completely overheat it.

[solid hinge]

That's what I was thinking

Spam the whole map with fortification and I can play this game forever

I'm getting my ass handed to me by people doing that though

[ancient ocean]

And it slows down the fire rate when it heats up.

[solid hinge]

With the flare buffs im starting to wonder if spotting camera is actually necessary

[ancient ocean]

They buffed the flars.?

[little fjord]

I just got spotting camera, haven't had a chance to try it out yet

[solid hinge]

Yeah flare now covers decent area

i guess it'll help on the big maps

You mean spotting scope?

Nope

Spotting camera is on airplanes

The camera on the planes

Yeah

it's still useful

Planes get flares too

because no one uses flares anyways

[little fjord]

I wanna try dropping mines on tanks

[solid hinge]

I was wondering whether it was worth replacing plane flares with spotting camera

[ancient ocean]

Did they fix the way the flare gun shoots.

[solid hinge]

oh I thought you meant infantry flares vs planes camera

oh no way

Plane camera > infantry flares

The plane flares can cover a colossal range depending how high you use them though

I'm conflicted between the left or right tree on the bf 109 G-2

[little fjord]

You're always really high tho 😏

[solid hinge]

God I wish

[ancient ocean]

I'm high on life.

[solid hinge]

I got the G-2 more experience in one round than I've got the B-2 stuka in like 5

[little fjord]

Bayonet kills are ultimate high

[solid hinge]

stuka is pretty shit until you get those upgrades

Depends, but yes.

[little fjord]

I guess if I want to try more plane stuff like spotting camera I have to play fjel conquest

I almost never play conquest

[solid hinge]

Spotting camera is good on any map

[azure lark]

well, I used the drilling in squad conquest rotterdam. Didn't do great but I was killing people up close with it

[solid hinge]

Fjell airspace is literally just spitfires

It's not actually a very good map for planes

[little fjord]

I can never snatch a plane spawn 😔

[ancient ocean]

What's the plane with the paradrop specialization called?

[solid hinge]

Blenheim mk1

It's the shittest plane in the game currently

[dusky saffron]

@little fjord just wait lmao

[solid hinge]

They should add the A-36 apache

[little fjord]

Blen mk1 has paradrop too

[solid hinge]

Blen is trash tbh

Both blens suck but at least one gets bombs

[little fjord]

It's the only plane I have to 4th spec... I have no idea how

[solid hinge]

How the HELL did you get that joke of a plane to level 4

Who was the sociopath who put only 1 machine gun in an assimetric way?!

[ancient ocean]

Does that upgrad make to where people can be in the plane and jump at any time or dose it just drop then out as soon as they spawn on it?

[little fjord]

🤷

[solid hinge]

@ancient ocean too trash to level up

I heard its bugged at the moment

And doesn't work properly

I wouldn't know, because I've never seen it

They should add the A-36 attack plane from the US

I'd assume you just drop as soon as you spawn though

Like a mid air spawn beacon

Bs

[ancient ocean]

I just use it when I'm attacking on Narvik on breakthrough.

[solid hinge]

If that worked correctly then technically it could be like.. the most useful plane

Mosquito is good but the upgrades arent

[wild cape]

Stuka and spitfire mk va, can’t beat ‘em

[solid hinge]

The upgrades are the only reason to use the mosquito!

The only good allied plane is the spitfire

which is still inferior to the spitfire VA

which i am now also convinced turns faster

[ancient ocean]

What's the best Infantry plane for the Allies?

[wild cape]

Not only is the spitfire good, the spitfire carries all the other planes from allies on its muscular ass wings

[solid hinge]

Anti infantry?

[ancient ocean]

Ya

For bombs

[solid hinge]

Blenheim mkIV

[wild cape]

Stuka 😉

[solid hinge]

Stuka can eat my butt

[dusky saffron]

Stuka is garbo

[wild cape]

And it will with those powerful ass machine guns

[solid hinge]

After the B-2 stuka buff it's not even worth using the B-1

[dusky saffron]

tfw want to use planes but I can't get to lvl 4

[solid hinge]

It's relatable alt

[wild cape]

That’s why we need a dogfight game mode

[solid hinge]

I'm repeatedly throwing myself into conquest matches

[dusky saffron]

[solid hinge]

A dogfight game mode would be a larger version of fjell airspace

[wild cape]

Yeah pretty much

[dusky saffron]

I mean the dogfighting in earlier games sucks

[solid hinge]

Which is already 95% spitfire VAs

[dusky saffron]

so that's why I don't do planes back then

[solid hinge]

It would be nice to add a vehicle only gamemode in panzerstorm and arras

Which planes and tanks

[dusky saffron]

just do Vehicle tdm basically

[wild cape]

I would like a dogfight game mode, WW2 was dogfight city, but it could be quite hard to implement because the planes are unbalanced as heck

[dusky saffron]

where each vehicle destroyed ticks down a point

HOWEVER

they need to nerf repair rates

on support to do this

[solid hinge]

plane repairs are also ridiculously frustrating

Only tankers should be able to drive tanks

[ancient ocean]

And the tanks are kinda unbalanced to be honest.

[solid hinge]

To avoid stealing

[wild cape]

Staghound OP staghound OP

[solid hinge]

The vehicles ain't great in this

On terms of balance

So i can safely leave my tank to repair

[dusky saffron]

At least they improved on air repair

you can move while repairing

which is fucking good

[solid hinge]

They "fixed" the stuka sights

[dusky saffron]

in bf1 you flew into the stupid OOB a majority of the time

[solid hinge]

The sounds in the air are fucky

They just removed and re-added lmao

[little fjord]

Map idea: air field vs aircraft carrier fleet and beach invasion... lots of planes and vehicles spawn from base or beach water transport

[solid hinge]

The amount of targets I've lost because it makes the flying past me noise when they haven't at all

[wild cape]

Fire is now 400 decibels rather than footsteps, which I guess is a step in the right direction

[ancient ocean]

The staghound sounds are buged for me because I never get sounds when I take damage in it.

[solid hinge]

Hi everyone! I got Battlefield V for Xbox and everything was great but now I'm not gaining progress for achievements, reviving squad teammates and capturing the flag don't credit the achievements?

I've seen glint 4 times since they nerfed it

[dusky saffron]

I seen it a lot

[little fjord]

Staghound taking damage thing should be fixed... it was in the notes

[dusky saffron]

thank fuck they made recon better by it

[wild cape]

@solid hinge assignment issues have been a thing for a while, not sure if the patch tried to fix them

[solid hinge]

I wanted them to add glint to everything

[dusky saffron]

cut that out

[solid hinge]

Oh alright, It was working fine, but now I'm no longer getting any credit for achievements.

[dusky saffron]

before you get the smoked bayonet

[wild cape]

Just have lens flare everywhere

Make the entire game out of lens flare

[solid hinge]

I've been shot in the face by SO many snipers that I haven't realised are snipers because no glint

[dusky saffron]

that's because you need to squint more

you big d u m m y

[wild cape]

Safety squint

[dusky saffron]

[solid hinge]

My face is already right next to the tv!

[dusky saffron]

that means you're blind

[wild cape]

Won’t die to a headshot if you safety squint

[dusky saffron]

I squint loudly

soz

[solid hinge]

Alt

How often are your prone melees successful

And your bayonets

[ancient ocean]

Dose anybody else spam slide because I do that all the time, I legit just slide around the map.

[dusky saffron]

Uh

Very successful

I got about 20 ish tags in one match

I think it was either devastation or panzerstorm

[final marsh]

Me spam slide 50% of the time

[solid hinge]

I don't mean like successful as in getting them

I mean like

How often do you hit a prone dude and it just hurts them

[dusky saffron]

oh yeah

[solid hinge]

And how often do your bayonets slide off

[dusky saffron]

it depends

[ancient ocean]

If you slide and jump of a something I feel like it makes you go really far.

[dusky saffron]

if they don't seem me coming I can just safely press melee

but if they're infront of me

I spam the fuck outta it

and I hit them at least once

normally

no animation

[solid hinge]

My last 7 prone melees have all failed on the animation

[dusky saffron]

l m a o

angle of attack is big when they're proned

[solid hinge]

which has got me killed like.. over half of those times

[dusky saffron]

idk why it's like that

also

stop playing on console

[solid hinge]

No!!!!

[dusky saffron]

hope you miss more melees than

[ancient ocean]

[solid hinge]

It's not ME missing them

It's the buggy ass game

[ancient ocean]

They don't work

They never worked in any battlefield.

[solid hinge]

also there's no reason for bayonet charges not to cancel immediately if you don't actually do anything other than sprint

[ancient ocean]

Who actually uses the bayonets in this game?

[dusky saffron]

Good players

such as myself

gives a good reminder to people not to square up in range of me

[ancient ocean]

@dusky saffron

[dusky saffron]

I don't get it but okay

@strong parrot you suck

[ancient ocean]

Good players use bayonets that's a funny one.

[strong parrot]

doesnt the bayonet, fuck you alt, make your accuracy worse or ads worse like in bf1?

[dusky saffron]

post your stats in bot spam

no they removed the ads nerf

[strong parrot]

LUL why

[dusky saffron]

but with that they fucked the sprint speed

idk

the sprint speed buff was nice

[strong parrot]

literally effects your aim though

with it on the end of your gun ...

[dusky saffron]

@ancient ocean no your battlestats you loser

[ancient ocean]

?

[strong parrot]

https://battlefieldtracker.com/

[dusky saffron]

^

[ancient ocean]

"No your battle stats"

[dusky saffron]

yes

battlefield stats

is it that hard to comprehend

[ancient ocean]

"NO"

[icy sluice]

"YOUR"

[dusky saffron]

must be since you thought I was mentioning server stats

[strong parrot]

so he must use a bayonet then...since no good people would use one

[dusky saffron]

no wait

there we go

[icy sluice]

Why have a bayonet on the mp34 tho?

[dusky saffron]

why not

[rocky verge]

play bf5 to get to rank 40 for tides of war or play payday 2 to get killed by cloaker

[icy sluice]

It's an smg

[dusky saffron]

if I can swap the 4th tier with the bayonet

and still do good

[icy sluice]

it's like having a bayonet on the shotgun

[dusky saffron]

I literally don't give a fuck then lmao

shotgun bayonet is fine

[half wolf]

has anyone else had the bug where the top turret gun of tanks does no damage?

Specifically just had that on a stolen Churchill tank

[dusky saffron]

the only bug i've seen so far in this patch is the constant squad leader pinging

once an objective is selected

[half wolf]

I'm gonna restart my game because I've had the issue where my VOIP gets disabled, and the top turret does no damage, and yeah, the squad leader pinging too

[little fjord]

Imma put bayonet on rsc

[solid hinge]

I had that on a transport recently

Maneuvered it behind a squad trying to flank a point i was solo defending

lit them all up and did absolutely no damage

Couldn't see the bullets either

I got suppression points but not a single hit marker

[cold trail]

Lag?

[solid hinge]

Doubt it

It's always in turrets

There's also times when you shoot dudes in turrets and get nothing

[cold trail]

Haven’t had that issue.

[solid hinge]

They should add the wellington or beutfort

Beuatifighter***

[azure lark]

woo boy, AA on Fjell is fun now. Was tearing up fighters and bombers

[solid hinge]

When will sli support be add'd to bfv

[unkempt scroll]

man, wish you could blacklist maps you don't wanna play

[solid hinge]

You gotta do that to 63 more ppl ^

[cold trail]

Thought devs were moving away from SLI in the latest titles?

[topaz atlas]

Still haven't gotten my company coin back yet, EA DICEs customer support is a "100% totally helpful doesn't ignore you" help

[solid hinge]

Whats wrong with company coins?

[topaz atlas]

They aren't there

Everybody else got them, but not me

[strong parrot]

did you actually play

[topaz atlas]

I've been rank 50 since like 1 month after launch

Won't help

[foggy summit]

try again

[topaz atlas]

They just send me a link to there "Reoccurring Problems" page

no help at all

[unkempt scroll]

ffs, everytime i try to join a specific map, the round end and jumps to aerodome

[solid hinge]

I have 20k company coins

[topaz atlas]

I've had like 600 for like 2 months straight

[solid hinge]

Is that too low for a lvl 49 playet?

OOF

[topaz atlas]

I haven't earned anything, even when it says i did, i actually didn't

[solid hinge]

My fps has dropped to 1 on console

That was bizarre

[strong parrot]

one frame a second...you have ascended

[topaz atlas]

I contacted some guy from EA on twitter and he just sent me a link to their dumbass page

[weak violet]

Holy god this is annoying

[strong parrot]

well yeah...whats someone on twitter going to do

[solid hinge]

They should removed the option of stealing guns from downed teamates while reviving

Thats so fucking annoying

[strong parrot]

you just have to press the button to revive you hold to pick up a gun

[weak violet]

Origins is going to take 25 hours to update BFV

And it’s a 4 GB update

[solid hinge]

It literally was 1fps for like 50 seconds

[pale rain]

@solid hinge are you scratchoid on ps4?

[solid hinge]

I think I joined your match

[weak violet]

Like honestly that sucks so much, since my WiFi bar is full

[solid hinge]

: D

[pale rain]

Ohh yeah yeah

Nice

Mic?

[solid hinge]

Dice should listen to the people of reddit and here

[pale rain]

Dominated that round lol

Wait Ayla, lemme know when your loaded in. May or may not have infinite loading screen rn

[sudden siren]

Semi rifles are so overpowered

Really needs nerfed

[solid hinge]

Use them then

[sudden siren]

I do

[weak violet]

And now BFV update says 20 KBPS

[prime pine]

Semi autos over powered? Eh

[amber notch]

1-5 semi is fairly powerful

Anything else is shit

Change my mind

[prime pine]

You be you

Theres a semi for every one

[amber notch]

Well not using the drilling

[azure lark]

running around, zig zagging, and some blowhard bolt action sniper stands there and blows me head off

[amber notch]

Already doing worse

[strong parrot]

ok this fg

can fuck off

id rather use a bren

[elder zephyr]

Squad 3 for conquest

and a good time

[amber notch]

@strong parrot just use the fg42

[strong parrot]

thats what i just said can fuck off?

[amber notch]

Use it

Don’t be scared

Or use the drilling

[pale rain]

HOLY FUCK

[strong parrot]

the fg is horrible for me

[pale rain]

JUST GOT BAYONETED BY AYLA

@solid hinge JUST GOT ME WITH A BAYONET

[sudden siren]

Anyone play PS4

I want to play with a squad

And be all tactical and shizz

[pale rain]

Yee yee

[sudden siren]

Doomfist0114

Add me sir

[solid hinge]

hehehehhhehehe

[pale rain]

natekil20

[solid hinge]

You're a demon with that 1-5

[pale rain]

This legend just throwing knifed me 3 times and then bayoneted me

You’re a legend dude lol

[sudden siren]

Ayla what's your tag

I want a full crew on PS4

[strong parrot]

im legit....10-11 right now in this narvik idk what the fuck is wrong with me

[pale rain]

We should play together more often

[solid hinge]

When you pick recon on breakthrough devastation you gotta bust out the blades

I'm scratchoid!

[pale rain]

@solid hinge @sudden siren we should squad up

[azure lark]

I'm spectating another 97 round lewis gun hacker on twisted steel going crazy on top of bridge

[solid hinge]

I like the sound of that

[turbid badger]

va 8 guns is a fucking joke

[solid hinge]

Oh god it's hamada breakthrough

[turbid badger]

have fun lul

[pale rain]

Gonna go try to snipe Ayla

Wish me luck

[little fjord]

Yes I wish you success as you snipe ayla

[solid hinge]

agreed

[prime pine]

Hamada on breakthrough is either the most fun or the most boring experience

[pale rain]

The dude is a legend

[azure lark]

lol, well this cheater was talkative. When asked what they would do when they see that their account is banned, they replied, not worried about it and they'll just buy another $1.75 Origin account

[amber notch]

Imagine not being a good sniper

tbh

Just use an SLR

[desert dune]

me

[amber notch]

its not hard

[prime pine]

Yeah just use self loading rifles

[desert dune]

Can't aim for shit

[amber notch]

Use that ZH dawwwg

Or the Selbs

[prime pine]

You'll be more effective than you would normally be with a bolt

[desert dune]

Don't have selb

[amber notch]

both two shots at any range, fuck bolt actions tbh

[desert dune]

the only gun I didn't get during ToW

[prime pine]

Selbstlader 1906 is my baby

[amber notch]

The selbs is good for irons

[prime pine]

Best aggressive semi auto

[amber notch]

thats it in reality

[desert dune]

Been using Turner

[prime pine]

I use the medium scope, all i need.

[little fjord]

All the slrs are easy

[solid hinge]

So I guess no more SLI for battlefield

[strong parrot]

14-18 atm....what the fuck is wrong with me

[prime pine]

The model 8 is better than the RSC i believe. Just due to its firate.

[desert dune]

SLR, DMR, what's the difference

[prime pine]

Fire rate

[amber notch]

Self loading rifle

damage is higher and RPM is slower

[little fjord]

They nerfed bmac... was in the patch notes

[amber notch]

usually

[prime pine]

Big boy semi

[rose pilot]

ZH-29 best weapon in the game. Change my mind

[desert dune]

Liberator

[amber notch]

laughs in fg42

[rose pilot]

debatable

[prime pine]

I got bored of it while grinding for level 20 recon.

[desert dune]

Liberator

[amber notch]

ZH is two shots and sucks for CQ

[prime pine]

Just slap the rifle scope onto it and you're good

[rose pilot]

Prone in a dark spot with an MMG.

[prime pine]

Im serious i ran a rifle scope on the ZH without the recoil buffer at the time of the coin drought.

[amber notch]

Why use that when a gun that has a 4 bullet ttk and an 690rpm can usually get far more kills

[prime pine]

I like using flares and the beacon to support my team

[rose pilot]

i play TDM with the ZH its good

[prime pine]

Dont think i've ever used SLR's on conquest

But thats because all i play is breakthrough, dom, squad conq etc

[solid hinge]

shit

stuck in infinite redeploy

;_;

please.. medic..

res me after 3 minutes of bleed out

It was only a flesh wound

[amber notch]

When dragging is a feature is in the game ill drag you into a fire

[solid hinge]

You are SO cruel

[ivory geyser]

ikr

[desert dune]

oof

[solid hinge]

My aching heart

[sudden siren]

Tanks really should not be on breakthrough

[solid hinge]

I dunno

[sudden siren]

On rotterdam the tanks don't even fit in any of the points

They're clearly shoehorned in

[solid hinge]

That devastation match I did with Frank was horrific

We couldn't push the church at all

[turbid badger]

tf is the spitfire

so broken

[solid hinge]

I tried calling a sturmtiger in but I timed my respawn wrong and had 8 seconds left when it had like 2

;_;

[teal phoenix]

Randomly loaded up into a squad and the lead was a squeaker

[solid hinge]

then i called a supply canister in and it exploded when it hit the ground

[pale rain]

Lol

@solid hinge @sudden siren wanna squad up?

[hushed thunder]

Had a guy add me as a friend after I kept reviving him over and over on Fjell

[sudden siren]

Did someone just add me?

[hushed thunder]

Didn’t want to leave me like a duckling

Cute

[pale rain]

yeet I did

[strong parrot]

lmao just ended a narvik conq match 24-24 with 10k score...literally fucking sucked all round

[pale rain]

Wanna squad up?

[sudden siren]

Yeah lemme just end this game

Get my assignments turned in

[strong parrot]

but we beat a 7man platoon on the enemy team by 50 points

[teal phoenix]

@strong parrot good score tho 👌

[solid hinge]

Is there a good way to find ground enemies while on air?

[strong parrot]

no

i was horrible all round lmao

[teal phoenix]

If I had to guess...hope that people are spotting with recon scopes or suppression

[scenic magnet]

Ooo

OwO

[little fjord]

@solid hinge have squadmate drop spotting markers

[sudden siren]

Added you

@pale rain

Anyone else on PS4?

[little fjord]

Some people claim to look for muzzle flash but that's hard imho

[solid hinge]

Air forces needs a better way of spotting enemies

[teal phoenix]

I'm on PS4 @sudden siren

[sudden siren]

Doomfist0114

Add me

[solid hinge]

Atleast for themselves

[little fjord]

oxbowdvcorleone

At least until ps4 allows us to change our cringey psn ids

[amber notch]

What?

[teal phoenix]

@sudden siren added you. I'm appearing offline cuz I don't wanna get spammed with Destiny invites rn
