I main recon like hell and i can remember both of those close range bolt kills
One of them was a hit on a dude who didn't have much health left and the other was a random headshot
why the fuck would anyone kill someone with a bolt action at melee distance
rng noskop headsh0t
Just to flex on them
i reached lvl 1 on blenheim despite never spawning in one
all i did was paradrop from one whenever i get the chance
@solid hinge it's pretty easy to find oblivious campers and hipfire headshot them with enfield, I say it happens maybe twice per round lol
If they get kills while you're in it i think that counts
gunning down people with the tail gunner mg
@worn cave that's prime tag stealing time!

lol, do tags do anything. Are they even ingame, tbh, I've not noticed
I just pop em and move on
just hit lvl6 with the jorg
tfw you've placed over a thousand spawn beacons and only have 370 allied spawns on them
id like to think i'd do better last time with it if it wasnt a cheater infested server
not sure if i got easy kills or i'm starting to become a chronic headshotter

why do i use the bayonet
if i can just whip out the webley
well they're doing a 1.3x speed boost on it with the update
so that could be useful, maybe lol
Bayonet works well for panic moments and round corners
It's got pretty fast turning in this!
on console at least

It also activates really fast
So sometimes if someone pops up right in front of you you can just jab them
Oh I wouldnt want to try and hipfire headshot with enfield on console, nevermind lol, I understand the melee reaction 😛
the only one who has equal score with them is a 0-19 medic

reviving people griefing on the spawn tank resupply
why dice why
see lots of dead people in spawn
sniper? no
its the tiger blowing up their resupply
People are just plain bad in this game
they're good at finding ways to teamkill somehow

the defenders dug a trench on the yellow fields all the way to our spawn
spawnraping us was within hipfire distance
Some maps have the worst spawncamping
20 bipoded kills with a bren in a round or 60 bipoded bren kills
bipoding bren lul why
its a 30btk sniper remover
is it easier to gild the stg-44 or the stg-15
tfw you have to force yourself to bipod the bren :pepehands:

does the bren even have recoil without bipod
am i supposed to expect the bren to pull downwards as i shoot
I tried using it on console and it feels not the nicest with a 3x scope
its the only one i can use with a 3x scope to be fair
doesn't feel amazing though
Not in comparison to a lot of other weapons
the ke7 keeps getting nerfed
i know,again...
3 hs kill
the stg44 is like 1000x op to the ke-7,but doe it get a nerf ? ofc not
fg42 single shot is unnecessary because you can full auto it up to 200m
just use the mas44, 3shot on body up to about 75m

i can't full auto the fg42 
i turn off my brain when i shoot the bren and just dump it until it kills someone
Lmao same ^^
lol
I have the best luck with AA Lewis out of them all
I managed to get 2 whole kills with the baby mag on the mp28
by the end of my 30 round burst i usually end up headshotting 3 people at once
At like 20m
ke7 I refuse to use out of principle
do you guys bigmag the lewis or take the other tree
so many time killed by lewis hipfire
i refuse to use the lewis lol
47 bullets is reasonable for an lmg
too much hate
cries in FG42 20 round baby mag
haha
so whats the appeal of an mmg again? what is the purpose in the game
why even use lmg,for most parts mmg is anyways better
I wish they’d increase the damage or decrease recoil on full auto
big mag count and higher rof than lmg? 
the lewis has only better control than the bren if it uses the vrec upgrade
and still has same hipfire
47 round Lewis so I have more control in ADS
with inferior accuracy
omg,i got the most kills with the sten,wtf,my past will haunt me forever lol

lewis is really nice control when going full auto, not so much on bursts
I managed to only get 57 sten kills
Valentine is nice

How far does the can shot work out to
When you have 4 tanks alive on aerodrome
In grand operations
And they play smart and stay back or rush when needed
losing as aerodrome defenders
the hangar itself capped within 2 minutes
tfw your knife goes straight through someone
its happening right now
Ah
i am witnessing the ultimate war machines in action
the secret weapon of ww2
a valentine with an anti aircraft gun on it
Nice
This week gonna be tank focused
Panzerstorm and hamada will be good maps
Or call a Sturmgtiger on operations

tfw for your last 5 deaths the hold to speed up bleed out hasn't worked
Huh
how about assault semis
wait no
i think only the g15 takes 3hs

tfw my only moonshot was before tank guns got buffed to always oneshot planes

hit ju88 square in the cockpit
50dmg
dick these fake hit indicators man
fake hits 
JU hmg back turret outdamages mosquito default guns
Levelling these planes is a pain in the fuckin ass
tfw the enemy is all on one point and literally none of your bombers are even trying to hit it
It's the third phase of breakthrough hamada it's ONE point you should NOT have trouble acquiring a target
👽
is it normal for tank rounds to not one shot infantry 90% of the time?
Yes because they are underpowered
because I am used to them killing in one shot from bf1
Its weird because clearly the MG is meant for infantry and the HE is meant for Tanks but its not designed well at all
splash damage is poop
i guess that is why they are increasing it
13% doesn't seem like much
no way to get more than one shell type at the same time right? if you get a specialization it just replaces what you have?
Nah it's a new one
you dont replace it
?
you can switch from HE to AP
ok
so, i rock HE until i know i'm coming up against a tank and then i'll switch to AP which takes like a few secs
would case rounds work that way?
is that the shotgun?
yeah
yeah its the same
Is the battlefield sub safe to enter
no, mostly highlights and memes
¯_(ツ)_/¯
Oh well...
but you're on xbox the console ports are shitty
Sometimes I can't skip revives and sometimes I can't use medkits.
O woops
Lol it's fine...........................what are you sorry about?
i insulted a console player
I mean the game really is shitty on console and superior on PC
Oh. Well...........................PC Master Race.
It's like classic battlefield
but instead of having more classic mechanics they just make the PC version the best one and the console versions shit
best version
most susceptible to cheating and forbidden modifications
#notbad for using the AG for the first time since the new shit came out...even got 2 rockets in...2nd one didnt kill anyone though 
If I could post pictures right now I'd post a gif of Jay Bauman throwing up blood
What are you trying to say

shh, you’re not supposed to claim to be successful with any weapons around here
AG42?
ok a handful of those were 1911 kills too....
and rifle nade....and piat on some tanks
and i threw an AT nade at someones feet from behind, because i was empty on the AG empty on the 1911 because i just killed 2 people with them, reloaded the pistol before the nade goes off and shot it..to kill the camper 
Gotta get that noob tubing done before the update
talk about unaware....there is a nade at your feet
so apparently a rifle nade can explode on a glass window thats right in front of you
who knew?
Teammates who purposely destroy vehicle stations should be banned
I have a feeling that behavior is going to increase during the next tow
implying the console versions are any different to PC minus controllers and plus hackers
nah you guys just get people with burner accounts so they can cheat win rates and see where the limited number of enemies are at all times 
I was just saying that I hate semi autos
To be fair if you can't hit heads with it it's pretty shit
huehue....or you just body the fuck out of them
Only two kills in a mag that way!
using a semi auto i havent used in weeks
just shitting on everything with it anyways
yeah this class of gun is totally fine
hmm how can we fuck over MGs? oh lets make an mmg class
I have a bad habit of reloading a lot anyways
lol
I just tend to stay in somewhat small locations with good cover if I'm using an mmg
Lmgs are a different story since you can move around a lot and don't have to depend on bipods very much
I need to try using the Bren again, I havent used an MMG in awhile
such a cramp for an aggressive style
lmgs are basically assault rifles with bipods
more bloods please
I like that lmgs are that though
It's better than an LMG no matter how heavy always handles the same
Imo at least
Nothing like sprinting around hipfiring a water cooled MMG in BF1

tom jones starts playing
1922 mmg is a good match for that map
Devestation has my favourite places for MMGs
We need more maps like that
As much as I love some of the open ones we've been getting we do still need some smaller ones with lots of nooks and crannies to discover
I like hamada and devestation
I could be wrong but I have a feeling devastation took alot longer to create than say rotterdam
True
I do like all of the little hiding spots devestation has
As many times as I've played that map I still find a different area every time
Or different fortifications to set up
Devastation is one of my favorite maps because of that.
Same
7.47 gigs, I hope Origin auto downloads it for me when it’s released
Tomorrow it says
They also say within the past two weeks, they deployed a fix for the download speeds going so slow in Origin.
Thank christ
I hope so
I'll check my origin settings and see if I turned on automatic updates if it's an option
It’s an option. Hasn’t worked for my buddy though lol
I think update is in 8.5 hrs
7 hours and 21 minutes
That’s 4am eastern
Depends
You'd have to play it to really know
Mainly movement system
No vehicles
Characters with actual abilities that aren't just a thing for cheap kills
Etc
aa tanks are meant to use in infantry maps
prove me wrong
it feels very different
aa tanks are pure evil
i hate them
nerd alerts
What aggravates me about the Stag and the 38t is that the Stag can have Armor Piercing rounds along side it's 20 MM cannon, making it multi-functional between both infantry and tank fighting.
The Panzer 38t?
....just infantry or anti-tank capabilities.
Not both.
This game needs more plane physics, its impossible to pull put a hammerhead
Well just ask your spitfire to rape me
Any fighter plane >>> anything that is supposed to destroy ground while in the air
Unless the enemy is a fighter with fucking air to ground missles.
I quit PTFO all my team is bewilderingly stupid and can’t do shit
In bf1 will the name of the tsar dlc be free
Like I’m playing as Russians tf
On a snow map
Isn’t this supposed to be for name of the tsar
Is the dlc free now
i think its for weekly challenges
thats what someone told me when i was on one of the gallipoli maps
Russian maps aren’t that great tbh
Because they fall under the stereotype of constantly being winter time
Russian summer is a thing too
Lol
Well....most campaigns in Russia were in the winter time.
A lot of battles were fought in the winter against the German army.
But there should be a summer map.
Kursk
Essentially Germany's last "big push" on the Eastern front
Mint is not better than gold
Oh
I mean mint is cool and gold is cool....
they seem similar other than the color.
Acknowledged as one of the largest engagements of tanks and aircraft in history
Panzerstorm is just Kursk Lite
Spring into summer
Eastern front was.........................Russia?
Yes
Oh
The weather stayed hot and dry mostly
But summer rains screwed over the German advance along with stiff Russian resistance
@coarse thunder tfw youre in a discord for the latest game in a series thats about WW2 and someone doesnt know what kursk is 
Isn't it true that Summers are pretty brutal in Russia too?
Isn't it true that Russia is pretty brutal?
The Eastern front was war crime central
I mean logically speaking...if Russia is FAR from the optimal angle in the winter time, wouldn't it be FAR CLOSER to the optimal angle during the summer time?
I like that whenever you lost in CoD WWII as an Axis member your announcer would say you'd end up the Eastern Front but, you never fought the Russians ever
As opposed to things any more south?
The Russian maps in bf1 were pretty meh
As if fighting on the Eastern Front is any worse than the Western?
Okay actually no that's true.
There was Galacia in there too 🤢
I honestly enjoyed the Russian maps when using a fuckton of smoke
They'd light your whole squad on fire and laugh as they did it.
None of them stood out to me tbh
I really liked Zebrugge and Achi Baba though
Zebrugge was the only conquest assault I enjoyed
The war in the East was based on a war of extinction and subjugation
The small maps on operations are garbage mountains
Monte Grappa bunkers were also a pain
I almost exclusively played conquest in bf1
Except not really :v
Best operation is probably Kaiserschlact
I'm sad I couldn't get the italian knife.
From the Summer Operations thing.
I WAS IN MAINE ON VACATION AND HAD NO IDEA IT WAS HAPPENING.
Wait what knife did it?
FUCK. THE FUCKING. EASTER EGG ON SOISSONS. JUST FUCK IT.
The...whatcha call it.
The one you got for doing 3 community tasks during a summer.
Arditit
The Soissons step to get the Peace Keeper?
Avanti savoia
I always just used the barbed wire bat
I think I got the Arditi Dagger
Where you have to light the checkerboard with the most random assortment of fucking buttons?
I didn't.
Yeah
Thank god for the people in the BFEE
That step was tough as fuck
Same @coarse thunder
Without them I would have dropped into insanity trying to figure it out.
I wrote out an entire grid for it lol
Same but I kept fucking myself up.
I just used the nail knife
What
I kept confusing direction and locations.
I got through most of it on my own until I had a friend help from the BFEE discord
But guess what
I needed a translator for all the Morse.
Someone else joined and he thought they were the ones needing help
So he had to help me do it again after he got the thing for someone else
I did it all myself but it took like 8 hours straight
Albion and Zebrugge were super easy
And then I got later banned from the BFEE discord.
Rip
Because apparently I said the wrong version of the N word.
Eh, dunno if soissons or the bronze tag was worse
They accepted people saying the N word, non-hard R.
I just left the BFEE discord because some of the mods were cunts
But the SECOND I said hard R, even as a joke, they banned me on the spot.
The bronze tag wasn't that bad as long as you had the ciphers open from the beginning
The Ciphers?
It was just tedious, that was the only part that made it hard mainly
Yeah when you had to use ciphers after translating the morse
Then for a few you had to put those into other ciphers
It's hard to explaining
OH.
Explain*
The 8 secret morse stations.
The Zebrugge Dulce Et Decorum poem was ezpz
As long as you had the puzzle solver for it
Albion was easy if you were lucky enough to find an empty server with no one ever joining
The easiest has to be the Fort De Vaux puzzle but that's not even necessary for the Peacekeeper.
No wait.
It was definitely...fuck what was it?
With the angel statues?
Yeah on Capporeto
Yeah that.
All you had to do was shoot ones wing off
THAT was easy.
Blow up another
Shoot the torso of the third.
And blow one in half
Then go down and interact with the fourth.
Oh wait no I just remembered what my favourite melee weapon was
Because of Capporeto
The broken bottle
OH GETTING THAT.
It was a fun way to flex on losers who didn't know how to get it
Was painful.

Until I realized an easy work around.
Fucking get the bottle as an elite class.
Like seriously.
You're a heavy armored elite.
I just stayed in one place while I had it and you'd eventually run into someone
Literally run up to anyone and then bash them with the found bottle.
Nothing was more satisfying than bayonet charging an elite
^
True that.
Especially when you were like....desperate.
"That elite is gonna fuck us up....unless...."
"....BANZAIIIIII!!!!"
As soon as I saw a flame trooper or trench raider I'd just charge them
Trench Raider was my fav.
He was so...well...sorta OP.
In close range he's stupid OP.
I only used the heavy with the big MG
The heavy Sentry was difficult.
The MG was not very accurate.
And sustained fire could easily bring you down.
Jokes on you I only ever play support
Trench Raider could not kill any elite
I was used to shitty lmgs
The Trench Raider didn't NEED to.
He'd massacre everyone else.
So you'd get an elite pushing for his team...
...then minus his team.
Dude, it was hilarious to have two enemy trench raiders
Wait. What?
Just slamming their clubs into each other and nothing happening.
How is that even possible?
You can hear them grunting across the map
No I mean a trench raider fighting a trench raider
Oh lol.
It happened to me before and someone was in my party
I was like "2 Trench Raiders ON THE SAME TEAM?"
If you're an exploit god maybe.
You could always tell there was one nearby because you could hear someone sounding very constipated trying to push really hard
OH MY GOD.
@primal sage you can pretty easily steal them from the other team on certain maps
I JUST HAD A BRILLIANT IDEA!!!
REMEBER THE NEEBS VERSUS NEEBS VIDEO OF BFFS!?
THAT BUT WITH TRENCH RAIDERS.
Battlefield Friends I should specify.
NOTHING WOULD HAPPEN
NO THAT'S THE JOKE.
The video was a noob was unloading an LMG at another noob on the enemy team who was doing the same back to him.
NEITHER COULD HIT EACH OTHER.
EVERYONE WAS JUST WATCHING.
I'm getting the video.
THIS.
But with Trench Raider vs. Trench Raider.
"They've just...kinda been wailing on each other....for like...the past 2 minutes...."
Got it.
I like how everyone uses punctuation around pow
For some reason in Discord I avoid punctuation it seems...
But in other sites I use it... I never noticed it
I always use punctuation
After the edgy days of my youth and typing in text language everywhere
Can’t wait for assault nerfs
I forgot how they're getting nerfed tbh.
I finally unlocked the bipod for my knife
Mas44, Turner, G 1-5 are getting damage adjustments. Rifle grenades have a distance fuse so to speak. Piat has a reload adjustment, maybe splash too.
@civic sun I just unlocked the bipod for my bipod
I never heard of the grenade thing
they should add tactical nukes into this game
lol
god i love his accent
The rifle grenade now won’t detonate on impact until it’s traveled a certain distance. Before that distance is met, it will bounce. It will do maximum 30 damage on a “bounce hit”
Ah alright cool
the piat was a reduced reload right?
That sounds really good actually
so in otherwords
Otherwise damage is the same afaik
I only ever used the grenade rifle for shooting over long distances into choke points anyway
nah only bad people wont be able to use the nade nade rifle :^)
It’s getting nerfed into a different utility
So intelligent players will learn how to use it effectively
I love dynamite
Short range airburst mortar
I like to reach out and poke you with a well placed nade 
^^^^^yuuuuuup
I just watched an old trailer for BFV, with the old cosmetic loadouts still in mind. It was "The Company" trailer.
if you ask me
Okay most are super absurd.
I think they should replace all the 3x scopes
with 2x scopes
especially on the self loading rifles.
On assault max 2x scope
....but there's one I legitimately liked and that was the dude who was like...in a tank top and part of a tactical vest. That just looked bad ass.
Recon should get 2x, 3x, and 6x scopes
exactly
or, lower the damage over range that the semi Ar's have
because tbh
they do way to much damage out in the 40's+
except for the m1a1 carbine of course
Yeah as annoying as M1A1 spam is at range, lack of a 3x scope would solve that. Damage-wise it’s balanced
10x scopes
okay fuck it
add back 40x
Lets really fuck this game over
I remember back in bf4 you could snipe people in the 1k's
why did they remove that?
Sorry
nah you're good
just go there to talk about tech
The “Burn Them” challenge really need to be removed
why?
It’s aggravating and inconsistent
I just don’t like it b/c I never use incendiaries
Incendiaries are trash when there's shit in the way.
But when you land them.
They wreck infantry.
Yo isn't this the tank found wrecked around Hamada?
Yeah they are
The archer is a strange tank
They mounted the gun facing the “rear” of the chassis.
Perhaps
I wonder if you’ll have to switch seats to use the gun. Historically it was still driven normally in the orientation of the chassis.
So it literally had to be driven in reverse?
It keeps telling me I'm unlocking new melee weapons, but it's already ones I own and it shows I own 2 of them 
More like driven with the gun pointing behind you
Yeah. Like when you want to set up your firing position you’d tune it in reverse.
At least you get to use the forward gears when retreating
That's just hardly convenient. Why not drive reverse all the time to keep properly oriented?
I really hope that Dice reverses the controls so that driving the Archer with the "Forward" button will actually drive it backwards, the way the gun is facing.
You know how in 3p on a turreted tank if you point the gun backwards you can drive it “normally”
It might work like that. But in 1p the driver’s compartment is facing the rear of the gun
I mean if I hold W, I'll move "backwards", at least the way the Chassis faces.
Perhaps switching weapons (mg to cannon) will switch your view to the main gun sight
It’s supposed to have a .303 somewhere but I’m trying to find out where on the tank it is
inb4 all the medics fall over the side.
Fjell < any other map
I hope the artillery strike call-in has proximity knockdown
It most likely will.
I hope the artillery strike call-in can actually hit something
It’ll likely be targetable like the V1

I want a small concentrated strike
but it's called sector artillery
So it’ll bomb a sector
Lmao
which makes me imagine just a random bunch of explosions like calling the artillery in frontlines
Still sounds kind of fun lol
So maybe you target it by selecting a capture point
Maybe not effective, but fun
Like a red zone in pubg?
Every time I get hit by Artillery in Frontline, all I can think is "What the fuck was that?"
EVERY TIME until a MINUTE LATER when I put 2 and 2 together.
I've never been unlucky enough to get hit by it
I have and it's not even an insta kill.
I've had it hit near me but not on me
It’s funny that it doesn’t even have a kill icon
At least it's not the artillery in the alpha 
I've gotten hit by artillery almost DIRECTLY, and it never kills me.
In the alpha you would get 2-3 kills per shot with them
^^^
I remember that lmao
I used it so much
But no one else did
It was always free kills
Is update live?
What's the update do?
When does the patch happen
09:00 UTC: PC update goes live
10:00 UTC: PS4 update goes live
11:00 UTC: Xbox One update goes live
so 4 hours from now for PC, 5 hours for PS4 and 6 hours for XBOX
@pulsar summitwhat is it for Pacific standard time
Also I hate low levels as squad leaders in my game 1 had enought for a V1 rocket he did not call it dumb ass noobs
I posted how much time is left, xbox is 6 hours from whatever your time is right now
so 3am for you

DLSS finally fk yes
I mean the games been out for what? 3/4 months now and they aren't gaining anymore extra income? Worrying to say the least for the future DLC after firestorm
honest talk though.. do you see any cosmetics worth buying till now?

Well I would hope that if they brought a shop out only some could be bought exclusively through your money. Like these teased elite skins etc etc
Maybe bring some exclusive weapon skins out just for paid transactions
Aviator and valkyrie look good
Man I am just not having a good day on bfv today
And night owl and blued sets look like they might be good
got them both, with that rebate I still have 200k sitting around
Been going like 7-5
I mean If they exclusively brought some goodies out just for paid micro transactions that would get people to drop 5/10 bucks. The rinse & repeat gun skins are too dull now
I wouldn't mind ridiculous end of round best squad animations
but I know most people will be like mah realism
Apparently that's what's coming with these elite skins
Character models too
Just like where are they?
honestly if emblems are to be added in BFV
Just think the longer they take to bring these out the more it's gonna hurt them and us for future DLC
Or purchasable emblems
i can guarentee there will be an event on /pol/ where people go full on Nazi in game
hell, I will start it myself
just for the memes
keep in mind, I am a black mexican man
The kind of people that are normally on /pol/ are usually too busy with their head up their ass
i can agree
4chan descended into shit once /pol/lacks gained power
yeah.. I miss those
But people making swastika emblems is the last thing the bfv franchise needs
also, emblem editors in any game can be horrifying
I didn't see swastikas as much as dickbutts lol
there are swastika emblems in prior BF games thanks to the editor
also most COD emblems were swastikas & porn
Buttholes with poop and every manner of pornographic trolling
Just feel like there's nothing to grind for at the moment, I go on Thursday to the tides of war which might take me that night. Then just play 1 quick game everyday to get my 300 company coins, which like I said I have 200k sitting as there is no other customisation coming out that warrants a purchase
especially on Black Ops II
that's coz people could create their own emblems.. make it so they are set and purchasable
@glossy mulch I think they give us too much cc for the grind
and some elite ones for boins
the funny thing is that most of those people who have those emblems are squeakers
@little fjordwait are the tides of war 1 solder cosmetic coming out
Like the one that gave ya German guy hair
For once 
I have over 80k cc and I have almost everything spec'd out except for most of the planes
No I think the CC is fine for the dedicated players. But come out with cool unique gun camo's just for that gun and charge like 15/20k for the whole set. Unique interesting designs
I would blow the whole 200k if they did that
give em time
@rocky verge probably
@little fjordoh someone said they were
I mean like I said 4 months now, customisation in terms of guns haven't changed at all
Battlefield games are the types of games you invest in. not the quick pleasure devices that other games are like
its usually after the first year that Battlefield games start to get their bearings
then its nothing but uphill after that (except BF P4F & BF Heroes, it was downhill for both those)
I agree but after 300 hours in the first 4 months I need a little more motivation as there's no new maps for a little while and customisation is very light at the moment
that's not how a game advetised as a "live service" works though
Yeah we are all praying for a mature game in 18 months
this is their first attempt at a full live service game (discounting Battlefield Play 4 Free)
I mean that double down & baron van zorn kits are beautiful give me a choice of 6 or 7 in a store and charge me 40/50k to purchase one
That's how you get me to grind again
also the ToW white tiger & birch camo are great
I agree... more like zorn and double... and vehicle skins ofc
i use birch solely for the wehrmacht
True but it's very rinse and repeat for all gun camo's which is nice, but also a little bit of a hinderance. Unique skins sell, that's all
they are but I don't know if they are unique enough.. people will always use their gold plated skins to show off
Any of the epic character skins... they are awesome... surprised they aren't asking for money for them
you need to entice them with some cooler stuff
Love the game though, never liked a battlefield game like this since BV3
Scottish play is pretty cool
Union jacked
ok back
people complain about the union jacked coat
the "slay for the Queen" (which is reference to the beloved Queen Mother)
I'm not fond of it, on the other hand we have stuff like Canis Horribilis
Canis, hazardous conditions... cool uniforms
My theory is that they had a shit load of customisation prior to its release and when everyone bitched moaned and complained about the trailer they really dialled back the customisation
Which is a shame
yea, a lot of the complaints were from non BF players
All very cool but I have them all
Maybe art department is reworking stuff
Maybe
which makes sense on the lack of current content
Yup
i still havnt the foggiest why people think Battlefield games are Milsims and need 100% accuracy
Agreed
its like all the kids influenced by games like arma jumped on the BF games expecting historical shit
I loved the trailer me, probably one of the very few 😂🙈. Basically used WW2 as a backdrop and carved their own stories and ideas into the mix. Women on the frontline, bit of extravagant sci fi thrown in
Thought it could of been really cool
Guess people just wanted battlefield 1.5
yea, it could have
I mean, the planned customisations were sometimes a tad too fancy, so ruddering back and offering more....believeable skins wasn't too shabby
I think so too.. btw, we need a wiki or something.. I can't believe you guys remember all the uniforms names 
I rock most of them uniforms so
there is a wiki with battlefield uniforms listed (some not all), it was posted on /r/battlefieldcosmetics at some point
Looking forward to combined arms tomorrow though. Really hope they reward you for doing the missions and they have different difficulties and they have a good replay value. Hope it's not half arsed
@fluid tusk I saw an actual civil war simulator... historical accuracy
but yea, the trailer gave me vibes of "Secret weapons of WWII" silliness that I miss
Same thing over 4 different maps
of course
I like battlefield because it's somewhere in between that and cod
historical accuracy leads to boring gameplay that borders Milsim
@fluid tusk They'll probably do some fancier stuff for the co-op mode or for the last "DLC", dunno
And BFV never was a Milsim
Not to mock people but some of the milsim youtube videos are hilarious
i just pray for the return of the German Jetpack
QUCIK QUESTION EVERYONE?
You think firestorm will be free to play? I think it needs to be after Apex Legends are killing it
why wouldnt it be?
But those who think it always was never played the BF multiplayer or beat their wives in the morning
I play a civil war simulator sometimes called war of rights
I was against it but I think it needs to be to entice people from that to battlefield
@glossy mulch Firestorm is part of the game
I mean COD blackout isn't free
the battlefield vets are just going to stick with battlefield
And DLCs are free, it's most likely free
No free for everyone
I think ea should make it free to draw people to battlefield and then implement their actual profit strategy like we've been talking about
Who doesn't own the game
ive been sticking with Battlefield for a decade and a half
also firestorm will offer something different than Apex Legend
@glossy mulch CoD Blackout comes with the 60 bucks Game, Same goes for Firestorm
both in setting and in terms of mechanics
It's part of the game you paid for
I've been playing it since BF1942
same
I like how the games have changed
Good Lord bfbc3: Vietnam will be insane
That's what I'm saying. Battlefields reputation is a little rough now, plus this huuuuuuge game with over 25 million players has just came out of nowhere, I think it would help it.
🤤
as I have found out, most of the people on the reddit who make complaints about BFV and bring up "I have been playing since 1942" are usually bullshit
You can still play BF1942 online
BFV has a fair bit in common with BF1942 outside of setting... mainly in terms of mechanics
I do sometimes
ive tried, but shits been fucky. origin is a bitch to use
i played a bit of 1942 and it seemed pretty cool
I don't play on origin
I mean there's only 7 million copies of battlefield sold. It's a huge ask for people who only play royale games to drop 60 dollars on a game when they have fortnite, PUBG, Apex legends
besides, I have more fond memories of BF Vietnam
Apex competes with blackout not firestorm though
It's why I've been playing lots of Rising Storm 2: Vietnam
yeah
Royale games compete with royale games
Nt just game modes
used to have both BF1942 & Vietnam, up til about 2012 when my storage unit got robbed and most of my PS2/PC/Gcube/Dreamcast collection was stolen
new maps would be a good addition
It's getting Greece maps next month
thats goood
still have BF2 tho
I play BF1942 on something called SiMPLE FRA
well, all multiplayer games compete for people's time but you don't count that
the issue i have is that I dislike digital games
a hero cartoonish fast paced bullet sponges shooter is different than BFV
I do actually, it's a first person shooter which compete with first person shooters. Like wise with royale, there's a huge community now that only play these types of games. And they need to target that audience with this mode
I prefer hard copies when it's a game I want to add to my collection I can show off
so I probably wouldnt play the games online again until I purchase the games back
Anyone get crossfire to work with BFV?
also ive migrated to PS4 as of late, now that im getting older and slower
best RTS would have to be Empire Earth
PS4 and Switch I use for RPGs, character action games, stuff like that
simple, easy mechanics, fun to play with a group that doesnt zerg rush the moment the game starts
I remember playing it in middle school back in the early 2000s
thing i hate about Aerodrome conq
had it on all the computer room PC's and we would just hop on at 6:30 am and play til the bell rang
is its a map where the first 5 mins decides teh game
out entire team decides to cap a
enemy immidiately caps d
*c
now we litearlly never take c the entire game
enitre team is incapable to taking ti
mgs are all nested perfeclt
squad wiped 6 times trying to cap it
tanks are all camping the other areas
basically "He who controls C, controls the flow of the Battlefield"
i know
but why is that the brits
always stay and cap a
and I am the only one ignoring a
i really wish they dont give points for taking natural caps
its so infuratign
it was worse in BF1
you play with new folk who dont understand the tactics of battle
but Aerodrome the syndrome is still very stressful
doesnt matter when the entire team is all squatting on a
for point
while the enemy actualyl took the entire team and a tank at c
immidiately
well, hopefully within the next few months. people will learn how to play properly
i want to wring out every single person capping a in aerodrome
no
they never do
BF1 for years
people still wait and cap the natural for points
people are too used to games like COD and Halo that handhold players through each objective
in maps like Argonne and Sinai
that are just chokepoint eentral
if people are doing that in chokepoint central maps that are basically all about holding center point
they never learn
CoD and Halo are more freeform then you think
at least those game naturally gravitate towards an arcade game
i should also point out that Aerodrome is basically an open version of locker/metro
BF has shoddy maps where the incentives are all screwed up because the scale of the game
its a meat grinder map
the issue with Aerodrome is mostly resolved when the brits cap c and can hold it reliably
but with more snipers
then it becomes a game of gridlock and flanking
but when the germans just insta cap c and never let go of it
its hard to even falnk
the top valley is camped by tanks so its hard to even flank
like I said, C is the meat grinder
and brits dont have a natural defense to hold onto
the massive chokepoint
There are still opportunities for flanks, but the game just becomes exponentially harder
for making dumb decisions in the first 2 minutes
indeed
campers are a huge problem in BFV atm
anyone who asks for SLR's on medics should be slapped
well its kind of a give and take
a game as free form as BF
too many factors
explosives are probably meant to be the anti camping mechanic
but then it becomes a spam mechanic
seems like there is a new support meta i am noticing where they have high ROF mmg and actually do good adsing while not prone with them?
its more like finding very jaggy rocky surfaces
and squatting and hope that it hides your head hitbosx
BFV has a lot of uneven surfaces
the meta Ive seen is support using the one default gun to cheese
