you know, for such an underpowered class, I'm still surprised sniper gets picked so often
#battlefield-legacy-titles

fair hedge
Everyyyyyyy body and there mom plays assault
Yeah I don’t understand why so many people love sniper
It’s very limited on how it can fight
half wolf
I switched to assault and started shredding with my M1A1 3x scope loadout
rapid moth
I really like the sniper class, and I try to coordinate with others to play a useful class
fair hedge
Coordination is key
I love finding random squads that just know what they are doing
It makes the game so fun
rapid moth
Oh its the best, but randos never have F'ng mics
half wolf
ffs i just got randomly blown up by a friendly tank
what the fuck happened?
tank shot, I said "killed in action" and just died
fair hedge
Lol
I want to find a good squad of people to run through all of combined arms and all difficulties so I can get that sweet sweet company coin
It would take a while but it’s like 15-20k company coin
That’s like one helmet if you get a good deal 😏
azure lark
I thought the max cc you can get from combined arms is 3,000
jagged vector
It’s bugged currently
fair hedge
Oh great
jagged vector
So by completing a difficulty 1 time, it voids the reward from the other missions
half wolf
64 player breakthrough
5 supports, 1 medic total

hi
solid hinge
People have a hard on for bolt actions even though they're shit with them and don't spot
You'll have 5 recons at the bottom of every match with a 1-11 kd who haven't spotted a single person all match
solid hinge
it doesnt work!!! you people lie me here
solid hinge
i cannot get the last assigment because i always die when i attack objective
been 4 days
always tanks gets blow up because i rush enemy objective
I picked up a m1a1 big mag as a recon one match of hamada breakthrough
midnight nimbus
maybe locking medics to CQB weapons in a game that's primarily mid-long range wasn't a good idea 🤔🤔🤔
dusty sluice
Haven’t skipped a ToW objective yet but I’m buying the stug, have the worst luck with it and I’m done
solid hinge
Every time I flared i could actually kill people who were spotted
A 31 mag! That's so many kills!!
jagged vector
@solid hinge I told you yesterday to stay outside the objective when attacking
solid hinge
It's not even not accurate
jagged vector
That way you don’t die and the cap stays red
half wolf
M1A1 bigmag, high velocity bullets, and 3x scope
solid hinge
And I didn't realise how fast it could shoot
half wolf
it's so fucking good
half wolf
and it makes me so sad because no class has guns that even approach the level of assault guns
midnight nimbus
or maybe everyone should have more ammo
half wolf
I run out of ammo mainly because I'm bad at scavening from corpses, and supports will literally never give me ammo
midnight nimbus
so that assault isn't encouraged to camp boxes
ammo limitations in FPS are stupid anyways
solid hinge
Assault has light infantry perk, it's even easier for them not to run out
midnight nimbus
mechanics for shitters
solid hinge
Run over one body and pick up another 16 shots for your m1a1
half wolf
and it takes like 5-6 to actually kill
solid hinge
Bolt actions pick up like.. two shots from a corpse
half wolf
medics get what, 6-7 shots from a corpse?
solid hinge
takes so long to get through them you never run out though
half wolf
man, I think I'm done fucking around with support. DICE clearly wants you to play assault, and only assault.
solid hinge
Medic is the class i come closest to running out on
midnight nimbus
I only use rapid fire Suomi on medic
solid hinge
I don't really understand the point of support other than being tank repairers
solid hinge
Lmgs are inferior to semis and assault rifles
midnight nimbus
LMGs are better than assault rifles
not better than semis
until Chauchat drops
solid hinge
jagged vector
I, for one, welcome the chauchat meta
wind pendant
wow, random squaddie stole pakwagon and drove right into a tank and 3 assaults
half wolf
@midnight nimbus LMGs are not better than assault rifles. ARs have better TTK and in general comparable recoil, except to the Bren.
solid hinge
tfw every single support is either running maximum BRRRT or has a 20 detatch mag bipod turner
half wolf
The only AR that is comparable to LMGs in terms of fire rate is the Ribeye, which also gets a bipod
solid hinge
ribey is also way more laser
jagged vector
FG42 needs ribey stability
half wolf
But LMGs have low enough mags that it doesnt matter. And a gunfight is usually won in the first few shots, not the last few of the mag.
solid hinge
it feels more like a pain in the ass to shoot the bren than the ribey
midnight nimbus
spread increase matters
half wolf
No, it really doesn't.
It's miniscule with the ARs anyway. If you're shooting at a range where spread increase is making you miss, you're pushing well into semiauto w/ scope territory
midnight nimbus
it's not
half wolf
The bren is a laser, but if you shoot at anyone that is shooting back at you, you'll die first. It's the slowest TTK automatic weapon in the game IIRC
midnight nimbus
spread increase begins to impact you pretty quickly
idle breach
lewis is just good.
half wolf
Lewis is mediocre. I hate the low RoF
fair hedge
Lewis is great
idle breach
it's a spotting scope.
midnight nimbus
remember that BFV spread increase is just the next logical evolution of BF1's spread increase
you effectively have FSSM
fair hedge
accurate, don’t even need a bipod
idle breach
lewis is a hybrid weapon. it's a gun, and it's a spotting scope.
midnight nimbus
LMGs just sit at their stupidly low base spread
and being able to spot is nice on Arras and Twisted Steel
solid hinge
Lewis has low rof but it really can shit on anything you're aiming at
midnight nimbus
shoot people when they think they're safe in foliage
shrewd grove
I love playing support
midnight nimbus
give everyone the "where tf did I get shot from?" experience
idle breach
lewis is just like 'oh yeah fuck you I got 50 rounds left'
shrewd grove
If anything a good support is more useful than it's ever been
fair hedge
Mg42 is the oh yeah fuck you I got 150 rounds left
solid hinge
I'd still prefer the ribey most of the time usually
deft fossil
Jesus fucking christ the last TOW assignment is the most annoying task in months... makes me hate this game
solid hinge
headshots you while you're proning
midnight nimbus
Ribey velocity is kinda meh
solid hinge
Still on 0 kills
fair hedge
I don’t like sitting on base waiting for a tank so I rarely get the chance to get one
deft fossil
I am at 16/20, 2nd day trying to grind it
idle breach
spawn with AA tank, kill some bunch, grab some MG on tank or halftrack
deft fossil
First time I legitimately consider just skipping it
half wolf
@shrewd grove a good support is useful becaus enobody has any ammo lmao
shrewd grove
That's what I mean
idle breach
I killed like 5 by tank and 15 by halftrack
shrewd grove
I feel a lot more helpful than I did in BF1
In BF1 you were just a grenade resupply point
BF4 you never ran out of ammo
idle breach
mortarman
deft fossil
yeah except everytime I hop into halftrack then 3 enemy tanks emerge from over the hill and Im fucked
idle breach
try on 'normal conquest' server
solid hinge
I played some BF1 and now I cant play 4 for shit
idle breach
it would be easier since usually people are done with assignment there
fair hedge
I used the ammo crate for the first time in like a month or two and was surprised when my crate didn’t fall through the ground
shrewd grove
I never use the crate anyway
deft fossil
Im trying to grind it on panzerstorm and aerodrome since the hangar is pretty good, but its still annoying as hell
idle breach
less tank seat crazy black friday shit goin on in conquest or other mode
solid hinge
The crate is even better now because you can bipod on it
midnight nimbus
idk Ribey is pretty low
solid hinge
It set me up for a nice point defence with the mg42
midnight nimbus
I think it's in the 600 m/s territory
midnight nimbus
plus, no reason to use the Ribey when the M1 exists
solid hinge
So it's faster than the g98? That ain't too bad
The m1a1 feels too evil to use
also it hurts my finger
midnight nimbus
G98 is 700 iirc
shrewd grove
M1A1 feels less evil than G43
midnight nimbus
Kar98 is 700
solid hinge
Lee is 500
solid hinge
I'm pretty confident i remembered the snipers right but i can't remember anything else
idle breach
it's just 10 round longbow
idle breach
SMLE is bascially 10 rounds longbow. change my mind
deft fossil
actually makes me wonder how are they gonna classify M1 Garand when it comes, the logical thing would be to put it as Semi auto for Assault but I feel like stats wise it will be technically a SLR for Recon
idle breach
yeah me too
solid hinge
I'm guessing it'll it a slr
solid hinge
Makes the ping all the more satisfying
half wolf
theres no way they're gonna not put the most iconic American gun of the war, not in the most popular class in the game
idle breach
and just go with 8 rounds, and quite fast reload speed
solid hinge
plus they don't need any more goddamn semis
idle breach
would be fun twist
deft fossil
yeah I reckon it will be something closer to RSC
idle breach
yeah but they'll add more guns so
I don't want just more similar weapon, I want different weapon
that's why I love so much m/42
deft fossil
also, Garand had an optic variant in WW2 so it wouldnt be entirely non-authentic to put it as a SLR
idle breach
yeah buty
but
it would be like some
2 rounds more SLR, nothing special
but in semi, it would be fun
solid hinge
I am only one yet to unlock the class 20 weapons?
fair hedge
Is the stug even any good?
solid hinge
why they so hard to unclock? I got lv50 way back in 2018
shrewd grove
Stug is great mainly if you have a dedicated gunner
solid hinge
but i still cannot get tommy gun or mg24 or any lv20 weapon
idle breach
@solid hinge you'll getting it in no time buddy, what is your problem? like class?
medic and support?
half wolf
its the bug where if you unlock the gun and leave the game before the match ended
fair hedge
I haven’t gotten any of the other classes but I finished support mastery within a few hours of constant playing
shrewd grove
Medic and support were the easiest to level up imo
idle breach
- assault - you just need to shoot and kill
- medic - you could just heal smoke and revive. you could go killing medic but if you're tired just try that
- support - similar. throw ammo. great point earner
- recon - FLARES
fair hedge
Support is very easy to get up to twenty just spam supply and get a big magazine
I’m working on my assault rn
shrewd grove
I mastered every class pretty easily
dense bone
just PTFO
shrewd grove
Recon and Assault were the only ones that required any grind
fair hedge
Lol
dense bone
best way to get levels...
half wolf
recon and medic for me are the grindy ones
dense bone
SPM is the main thing for leveling up
fair hedge
Recon is gunna be the hardest for me
dense bone
the only grindy one for me was support because i didnt like any of the guns till i picked up the lewis
fair hedge
I’ve just never been good with sniping
idle breach
you don't need to snipe
dense bone
imo dont play recon for sniping
dense bone
go model 8 or rsc
fair hedge
Bf1 was okay for me because there was some nice mid range snipers
idle breach
slr is quite fine
fair hedge
I tried the mode 8 and it’s not bad
idle breach
i mostly lvl up my recon using flare, selb
dense bone
model 8 imo is great up close, you gotta have good aim though, but as long as your hitting 50% of your shots youll do fine close to med range
the only frustrating part, is knowing if you played any other class youd probably do way better
deft fossil
oh god I hate model 8, still yet to reach level 10 with it
solid hinge
That's not the model 8!
shrewd grove
RSC strong
deft fossil
to each his own, I am more of an RSC guy
solid hinge
It's got a bayonet so I use it sometimes but i like the model 8 more
Not that I use either over the krag unless I'm really not feeling it
dense bone
still have yet to use a bayonet
solid hinge
Nyphon....
dense bone
shrewd grove
Ayla is the biggest bayonet advocate
dense bone
her and alt
coarse thunder
Always choose bayonet over bipod
shrewd grove
I'm happy with the bayonet buff
solid hinge
It's fast!
dense bone
when we played together he got a lot of melee kills
solid hinge
I'm not sure how he does it
dense bone
in that 1 match he has more melee kills than i do in total
granted, i very rarely go for melee kills
deft fossil
I choose either bayo or nothing, but the lack of speed boost when charging is kinda disappointing
solid hinge
90% of the time I go for a melee the execution doesn't work and i die
There's a speed boost now
dense bone
^
solid hinge
It got buffed
shrewd grove
It just got one
deft fossil
oh? nice
coarse thunder
Melee got slowed down a lot in BF5
dense bone
i just poke them a couple times then they shoot me
coarse thunder
Especially knifimg5
solid hinge
Heavy melee best imo
deft fossil
oh man, I miss being able to break wire with melee
shrewd grove
I still break wood with it if I need to set my gun up somewhere
deft fossil
@shrewd grove Coupe Couple 4life 👏
solid hinge
tfw can't smack the stag with a hatchet for 2 damage
deft fossil
IMO they should make it so that certain weapons can break wire like in BF1 but it takes more than one hit so building wires wouldnt be completely useless
shrewd grove
Coupe coupe and hatchet work the same the coupe coupe just looks better
deft fossil
better than spending a grenade on blowing that shit up
shrewd grove
Heavy chopping weapons still break wood
solid hinge
Assaults have like 5 things that can blow wires up
coarse thunder
Medic should get a satchel charge that can only be "interacted with" on fortifications in order to help them destroy stuff but not outright kill people
shrewd grove
That's all I need
solid hinge
they don't need to be any worse
shrewd grove
@coarse thunder that's why we need bangalores tbh
coarse thunder
Yeah
solid hinge
Wires take a while to build and one piat can blow up like 4 of them
deft fossil
yeah but if you are not play assault then its a different story
deft fossil
Im just not a fan of spending explosives on fucking wire
shrewd grove
I love my support explosives, the sticky grenades are quite useful
coarse thunder
As much as I hate advocating for more explosives, medic needs something
shrewd grove

I could use a LFG channel, you're right, but i guarentee you every single outlet for that is dead and i'm only getting people with KB internet
midnight nimbus
SLRs need headshot sweetspot
solid hinge
so...who's up for it
weak violet
Aye guys
I got the picture of a match of me only using flares and how much points i got
coarse thunder
All snipers should oneshot bodyshot within 10 meters
solid hinge
If slrs get a headshot sweet spot the bolts become obsolete
I specificly went spotter only, no firearms
and i got like, first place on my team point wise
Granted I did have flares and people probably spontaniously combusted
(the other use I have for flares)
dense bone
slrs should get 1 shot headshot under 10m or something tiny
deft fossil
1m
dense bone
lol hell id take it
i hate hsing someone super close for it to be same exact as a ranged hs
solid hinge
Flares are solid for points
deft fossil
Flares are such a rare sight for me to be honest
fathom pebble
good thing they can't see me
coarse thunder
🤔 no
fathom pebble
weak violet
@deft fossil When the enemy defending team is spamming flares it sucks
coarse thunder
Shoot them down
weak violet
You always are spotted
deft fossil
Wait so if I don't see a flare then it means that the flare doesnt see me aswell, right?
Im just gonna walk around looking at the floor from now on
To be honest tho, I dont think it's as bad as BF1 where you were pretty much within flares range 90% of the time you played
solid hinge
Bolt actions get a damage increase the further the bullet travels?
i like that idea
makes running around hamada sound even scarier
deft fossil
I liked that idea at first too but then my mind is racing to the worst case imaginable, and I picture a bunch of people sitting on the edge of the map to max out their damage and pick people off
solid hinge
edge of spawn point camping is now a viable strat

does nobody use the roles?
solid hinge

Anyone else having trouble finding a match in breakthrough

i dont think it will be huge map... because panzersotrm was huge so next one will be small or mediuam size map
elder junco
I wonder whats after trial of fire you can barely see it on the roadmap

You get a slim glance at something else after trial of fire
It starts with FC
Nothing else

there is not thats just made so it looks like there is something else after it but there is no because if there was DICE would have given us the full release plan like they done in the past with bf3 bf4 bf1

Hey, this is just your daily reminder that battlefield will never be a competitive game and you can stop tryharding in pubs
dense bone
i like try harding as much as i can, even though i know its meaningless

im just trying to win the way i think i can win without being cheap about it
midnight nimbus
gotta play as cheap as you can

nein
midnight nimbus
why put yourself at unnecessary disadvantages

if it was for money or something i deemed worth, then i will use everything i can
but i like being able to put up good numbers and no one say i got it playing cheap

fresh cargo
Hey guys, random question: do you know anything about that supposed battle royal on bf5 ?
tight tusk
coming in a couple of months
you can ride tractors
probably gonna be similar to airborne in grand ops in terms of how it starts
fresh cargo
no story like deploying on normandy or something ?
dense bone
@fresh cargo its supposed to be out with the next TOW, which is in march, its squad only, 64 players, and biggest map in bf history
fresh cargo
OMG I'm hyped. Maybe i'll find someone to play with on this group
dense bone
according to my guesstimation and math the map will be around 3.5km^2
dense bone
its smaller than fortnite and pubg sanhoks mapss
which makes sense, since its less players
tight tusk
mmm
fresh cargo
smaller than sanhok ? i thought that map was small already
dense bone
the biggest bf map is around 2km^2 iirc
@fresh cargo well.. im just guessing and using what they said and info i can find. but it makes sense for bf to look towards pubg for inspiration. sanhok is a lot of peoples favorite map in pubg
but since firestorm is gonna have 64% of the player count, why not just scale that down for bf?
sonic mantle
can someone help me become bad at battlefield 1
tight tusk
which ones sanhok again? havent played pubg in ages
dense bone
sanhok is the jungle island
sonic mantle
please, i want to become a terrible battlefield player
dense bone
technically 2.6km^2 is 65% of 4km^2
so i guess the firestorm map range to be anywhere from 2.5 to 3.5 km^2
tight tusk
i imagine itll probably be closer to the latter
dont really want everyone to be crammed together in one spot
dense bone
if it is, it would probably have a lot of vehicles
tight tusk
tractors
thats my main issue with bf5 currently aside from all the obvious bugs and whatever
cant ride the tractors

and change the colourblind settings

Turn all sensitivities all the way up

wait.. hes on xbox

play upside down

Also make sure to turn on all the stupid graphic aftereffects
tight tusk
and change colourblind settings so the colours are all dodgy
if you can actually do that
dense bone
play with no sound too
sonic mantle
ok den
tight tusk
no sound hurts
dense bone
and get a crappy third party controller
sonic mantle
hmm
jagged vector
Make the team&squad&enemy colors identical

that only has a dpad
sonic mantle
ooh yes

And if you play medic, don’t bring pouches or syringe
sonic mantle
alright

Can you change the resolution on console?
sonic mantle
what if im not trash enough tho

once I did 14 damage to someone at range after unloading a full mag... those SMGs are absolutely broken if I can do that kind of damage to someone
dense bone
but.. history/accuracy buffs would be pissed
solid hinge
selbaster 1916 best assault gun i taken 12 people without even needing to reload
merry ivy
nah that’s balanced, Medic is obviously borderline OP though
solid hinge
all medic guns suck
dense bone
you must have missed all but 1 bullet to get 14 dmg
merry ivy
well yeah for some reason even the slowest SMGs have ridiculous horizontal recoil
for what they offer
merry ivy
yeah, so its much better to equip Medic’s other weapon class that is better at range
oh wait
they only got one
tight tusk
In terms of tap firing the ZK is the best range smg imo
dense bone
if you had medics with good range options, that would make medic op
merry ivy
honestly, if I wanted to be hard to kill and unable to hurt anyone, I would simply join as spectator
tight tusk
If you have an issue with medic guns then just kill someone and pick up theres
Chances are itll be assault
dense bone
my medic stats went way up with last update
dense bone

i never picked up guns unless i ran out of ammo, and that wasnt often
you just have to use smokes to get around
which is easy saying you have 5 smokes and inf healing
stoic breach
Yeah
tight tusk
Lol
stoic breach
I never pick up guns unless I need ammo
dense bone
well.. you SHOULD have 5 smokes

smoke nades are fantastic

I’m a strong proponent of 5 smoke medic meta

should use launchers for moving around, and nades for reviving

I mean i hardly revive as medic unless its near the end of the game lol
coral fiber
Smokes are great and a nessecity for medics for reviving people
jagged vector
Lol wtf
coral fiber

reviving is what medic is for, and can change the game dramatically

Ik usually i only revive squadmates unless i feel nice
Then i revive other people sometimes

even though im better than 98% of the player base, and mathematically i shouldnt try to revive, im going for it if i can

Never underestimate a meat shield

Sometimes I pop a flare and bayonet into the middle of a point just to get everyone's attention on me and it works like.. more than never

i play all classes equally, i think support is slightly behind

im also totally not assuming it's me having an effect and not just my team getting it together

I think support is drastically in from of all the other classes for me lol

The only two classes I play are medic and support

Supports lowest for me
wait
no it isn't it's second highest
I played it a load at the start
Forgot about that

I mainly play support and recon rn

Followed by medic and assault
tight tusk
Support with drilling is op on pretty much every map except hamada lmao
solid hinge
If someone on my squad gets a tank ill play engineer support
dense bone
1 day for each class, half a day for support
shrewd grove
I feel the most helpful as support because more people play medic but not enough play support and actually give out ammo like I do
solid hinge
I feel like ammo isn't as useful as health
dense bone
^
solid hinge
It's rare people run out of ammo
dense bone
or revives
jagged vector
I carry ammo boxes as support because the UI when you’re carrying pouches is awful
Also explosion ammo
dense bone
even though there are a lot of medics, none of them really play the role well
solid hinge
Gadgets help, but that basically only applies to assault
shrewd grove
You're not the one having tons of people coming up to you shooting you with their pistol so you'll give them ammo
tight tusk
Lmao
solid hinge
and flares i guess but i can count on one hand the amount of times someone's boxed me

lol im always shooting supports with my pistol for ammo

i had a 2 - 15 recon squad member shoot me and ask for ammo

well give them ammo

I was playing recon though

I find box more useful 99% of the time
dense bone
opah winfrey up in this joint, you get a health, you get a health, EVERYONE GETS A HEALTH
shrewd grove
Box is only useful for certain people
solid hinge
Gadgets can make a difference, I honestly can't remember the last time I ran out of ammo with any gun
jagged vector
Box on support, pouches on medic
tight tusk
I honestly dont see the point of box with medic
dense bone
rogue medics
shrewd grove
I like being able to throw out or give myself ammo anytime I want, rather than throwing the box out where people run past or it gets blown up
tight tusk
You can blow up the box?
shrewd grove
Yeah
tight tusk
Never knew that lmao
solid hinge
box gives you gadget resupplies!! How is that not more useful than anything else?
shrewd grove
I shoot boxes that the enemy puts out
tight tusk
Its good if youre holding a point
solid hinge
you can carry round infinite mines or AT pistol rounds
shrewd grove
Box also has a certain amount of time that you have to wait between resupplies
tight tusk
Faster resupply with pouches
solid hinge
If you use ALL your reserve ammo inbetween supplies you have 1% accuracy
shrewd grove
I have 6% accuracy because I play machine gunner and use suppression to spot most of the time
tight tusk
If you use all your ammo it means youre either effective or an idiot
jagged vector
The elusive recon mmg user
solid hinge
If you're using an mmg you have a shitload of reserve ammo though
shrewd grove
Depends on what you're doing
tight tusk
Recon with an mmg would be interesting
solid hinge
The box should always resupply before you run out of ammo fully
and you can bipod on it
which is unironically really useful
jagged vector
You can use the box to obscure a revive too
Saves you from getting shot in the head
solid hinge
there's been multiple positions I've been able to hold down cause ive bipodded on the crate that I wouldn't have been able to otherwise
shrewd grove
Blind fire into choke points is incredibly useful for blocking
I like being able to resupply between belts because the MG42 with 1200 rpm runs out pretty quick
jagged vector
Don’t you spend more time reloading than shooting with that?
solid hinge
I can understand it more for short belt mg42
tight tusk
If you have 200 rounds then no
solid hinge
I still reckon the utility of the box is more useful though
Especially with a portable bipod spot
jagged vector
I’m with Ayla on this one
shrewd grove
Box is only useful at certain chokes and depends on the frequency of vehicles
tight tusk
If youre camping with an mg42 then you dont really need box
Youre just lying prone in a corner
solid hinge
It gives gadget spawns
If you have mines you can ensure you have 3 up all the time
With 3 in reserve
jagged vector
And periodically refills grenade
solid hinge
If a tank comes you can actually damage it
shrewd grove
I just don't really need those that much
I resupply every time I spawn
I have the AT pistol and sticky grenades on me all the time, that does all the damage I need
tight tusk
As a machine gunner support i hardly ever even use gadgets
Just find a good sport and like down with my mg42
Lie*
solid hinge
AT pistol is very useful when you don't have time to bipod
azure lark
I’ve made it a habit to make it rain ammo pouches.
jagged vector
I use the AT pistol for more than just harassing vehicles
It’s great for ripping down roofs and faces of buildings
Taking down bridges on rotterdam
solid hinge
It blows walls, you can use it to push, you can use it as indirect fire
azure lark
Also, I’m sick. Ive got the apex legends virus and i don’t mind.
I hate battle royale but not this one :/
shrewd grove
Heavy tanks are normally chased down by assaults all over the map, I only need to defend myself from something lighter
Just yesterday I defended the church on panzerstorm from a light tank on my own
solid hinge
you get less points with a crate in comparison to pouches but i have never, ever been in a situation where I've thought "wow im glad this person had pouches instead of a box"
jagged vector
I like stealing tank kills from assault with the AT gun
tight tusk
Thats a fairly rare situation tho
Unless youre just stalking the tanks
With isnt what support is for
Which*
shrewd grove
Most of time you won't even notice when someone with a pouch gives you ammo
Because it says someone resupplies you even if you pick up ammo from a dead body
tight tusk
Never understood why it does that
solid hinge
Guessing they just use the same ammo pouch on dead bodies as normal people
tight tusk
Hmm
solid hinge
Cuts corners
tight tusk
Fair enough
shrewd grove
Also
On PC almost every support uses ammo boxes
They already have enough gadget charges
But not enough resupplies whenever they need it
jagged vector
Oh I got a new headshot distance record today
tight tusk
But slower
jagged vector
412m on aerodrome
shrewd grove
Normally I see people waiting by an ammo box for extra ammo just in case because they plan to run ahead, I just like being able to throw it out whenever I want
solid hinge
It's still pretty dang fast
shrewd grove
It's fast overall but you notice how slow it is in the heat of the moment
tight tusk
And if 5/6 supports on the server use box its not like they can just throw out ammo every 2 seconds
dense bone
if firestorm doesnt have decent destruction, im crying
solid hinge
The only time I've been panicking for a box to recharge faster is when I want another AT pistol round for the tank that's pounding every spare inch around me
tight tusk
Like i said earlier box is good for defending and pouch is good for attacking
solid hinge
medic creates are so useless I never use them
tight tusk
Nobody does
solid hinge
I can't agree with it! I guess it has more potential use if you're with a couple people and you're tearing ass so hard you don't even have time to stop and tap a box but that's like.. a rare situation
i only use ammo create
STUG IS SO BAD
jagged vector
Stug is great, you’re wrong
tight tusk
I would ever choose it over the panzer sometimes
solid hinge
Attacks a valentine with AP shells
Hit 30
Hit 11
Hits the tracks,hit 1
Hit 12
Hit 6
And i die
shrewd grove
The pouch is great on maps like devestation, if you're wasting gadgets on choke points you're doing it wrong
tight tusk
^
jagged vector
Hit the turret 3 times solidly and the valentine dies
shrewd grove
Because even getting one charge back from a box you'll use it real quick then have to wait again
jagged vector
Unless they heal, then it’s 4 shots
shrewd grove
I just prefer being able to throw out a full bullet resupply at any time
tight tusk
As long as you can get used to the whole “i have to move the whole tank every time they move 10 meters” its fine
solid hinge
I don't know anyone who shoots enough to need it other than mmg players who usually have like 300 bullets in reserve and would benefit from having a portable crouch bipod spot and people who suck
If you're pushing you can pick ammo up off corpses too
so the gadget refills become even more relevant for assault teammates
HOLY FUCK
I JUST 2 SHOT A CHURCHIL
solid hinge
Yes
jagged vector
It usually takes 3 unless you got the ass-shot
tight tusk
Youre learning
shrewd grove
Resupply from dead bodies can only be picked up by one person, and only give you a mag to half a mag
tight tusk
Or ap rounds
shrewd grove
Pouch gives full ammo resupply with no wait
jagged vector
There we go
solid hinge
And the ass for 60

See, stug is good

jagged vector
Just keep an eye on your 6 and be careful advancing
shrewd grove
Heavies would get destroyed so easily so it was just better off you used a 38t because it was fast
Now I can flex my Last Tiger skin
tight tusk
As long as you have a couple of infantry around you when pushing a point youll be fine lol
Yeah i honestly cant be bothered trying to get that
Too much effort
jagged vector
I’m waiting for more vehicle customization
tight tusk
1 playthrough was enough for me
solid hinge
I just shot a bomber
tight tusk

tight tusk
Oof
jagged vector
I only got the sand aus italien skin for the B2
Then just using the ToW rank skins
shrewd grove
The last tiger skin only took about an hour for me
tight tusk
Oh kk
solid hinge
They broke tank and launcher one hit kills on planes again
tight tusk
Maybe ill give it a go
shrewd grove
The first challenge is complete the level without repairing, you can die and it won't matter lol
Just as long as you don't press X
Or whatever the repair is for you
The only tough part is doing the sneaking to the two places with the de lisle carbine and not getting caught
But even then the second part is incredibly easy
The one where you have to get to the AA gun without getting spotted took me awhile tho
jagged vector
I’ll keep these in mind for when and if I try to get it
I heard about the no repair part
shrewd grove
Ye
The other two are kill a calliope tank from less than 30 metres and kill a tank from over 120 I think
shrewd grove
Which are pretty easy with the areas you're given
solid hinge
STUG IS A BEAST!
jagged vector
Lmao
Using it correctly makes it amazing
It’s got a low profile and the long 75 has awesome ballistics
shrewd grove
It's got so much of a low profile it's used for backcapping all the time on Panzerstorm
And no one notices it
They just think it's a shitty half-track
jagged vector
worn cave
I shelled a plane with my valentine and the hit didnt register
it works other times, just seems random
jagged vector
Tank v plane is messed up currently
worn cave
I saw the explosion though haha
jagged vector
That’s why they removed the moonshot challenge
worn cave
so is MG emplacement vs infantry
worn cave
confirmed haha
solid hinge
What's it look like?
shrewd grove
It looks like an MG34 made from play-doh

In the stug when I spawn in it there’s a weird geometry stuck in the driver’s port for a while
shrewd grove
I'll try and take a screenshot of it actually

I’m really starting to get sick of sweats in this game
All the average players have left now
So most lobbies are filled with level 50 assault clans
And now my team is just zerging on twisted steel
Fantastic
main grove
It’s hard to find a good server now that’s not just one team steamrolling another
solid hinge
NEEEEIIINNNN
The bomber that i hit for 92dmg killed me
Thanks dice
Im really thankful
jagged vector
How’d a British bomber kill you in 1 pass?
jagged vector
Ouch
jagged vector
Very good
shrewd grove
solid hinge
There should also be a bomber on that list but you know
shrewd grove
here its a bit more hard to notice on the british guns

Blenheim bomber can easily take out a tank with 500lbs bombs

am i the only one who thinks the serbislider 1906 needs a buff? (the slr)
its litterly the worst slr for recon
and its unlocked through tides of war
solid hinge
That's very.... hmm
shrewd grove
ye its worse for the mg34
solid hinge
Odd issues
Selb 1906 is usually considered one of the better slrs
High fire rate, 2btk at any range and a 2x scope
Slebs 1906 is my fav
Wth r you talkin about
what is best semi auto for assault?
tulip pilot
anyone wanna play on pc
ionic brook
anyone in for combind arms on medium>
brisk field
Everyone uses the m1a1 so try using that
solid hinge
AG has the highest skill ceiling with 2btk at any range headshots and a 450 rpm
i use the 1916 because it has so much ammo
its 3 body kill and 2 head kill
M1a1 is a slightly less accurate AG in exchange for being able to have a gigantic fuck off detach mag
1916 is by default detach mag
pliant fern
I like the 1-5
solid hinge
and it can get good rate of fire if you upgrade it
The 450rpm guns are 4btk to the body at minimum, the 360 are 3btk to the body at minimum, the 300 and under are 3btk to body at any range
FUCK YES
EAT IT
CHOKE ON IT
I GOT THE BOMBER
solid hinge
what about sniper auto snipers what is the best one because all of them feel the same for me
The MAS has a small mag but it's ridiculously accurate and can have the highest bullet velocity in the game I think
@jagged vector I GOT HIMMMM
HES DEAD
@solid hinge the slrs?
brisk field
Slrs are half decent
solid hinge
Ahh
Feels so good
@solid hinge is that the tides of war gun?
They're the self loading rifles
brisk field
The selbstlader is pretty good but runs through the mag like an American eating a cheeseburger
solid hinge
The ones that aren't bolt actions
brisk field
The selb is good for mid one thing for sure
solid hinge
Model 8 is a 2btk under 50 metres, the RSC is a 2btk at slightly longer than 50 i think, the selb 1906 and ZH are 2btk at any range
its ww2 game but for some reason most of the ww1 guns are better then the ww2 😄
charred heron
So what do use on the Krag?
brisk field

charred heron
Faster boolets or faster bolt cycliNg
solid hinge
pats the stug
You did good today,you did good.
gives a goodnight kiss
brisk field
Less drop
charred heron
Well, it states that the bullets drop less
solid hinge
I pick the faster cycle rate cause it comes with an accuracy spec
brisk field
Faster bolt cycling if you're trying to be an aggressive ptfo recon
charred heron
So they're either hydrodynamically designed or faster
solid hinge
It doesn't make the bullets faster they just are affected less by gravity
It's magic!
amber notch
solid hinge
I use Gewhr m95 for shorter range and for very long range i use krag
brisk field
If the kar had good control I'd have mastery with it by now
solid hinge
Not ideal on Krag cause it has pitiful body shot damage and the drag specs are only useful at long ranges where you're likely to hit body anyway
Faster cycle rate lets you plink heads better
and i dont have kar98k unlocked, is it any good?
brisk field
my fucking classmate is playing copyright free music in my class right now fuck
It kinda sucks
amber notch
Overused music
brisk field
Kar sucks if you're used to the krag
solid hinge
Krag and Kar have same bullet velocity, but the Kar has higher bodyshot damage
brisk field
The control just sucks
solid hinge
I'd use the Kar if I was gonna super long range it
brisk field
And one less bullet
solid hinge
which i will never do cause that ain't fun
The Kar is great cqc weapon
Y’all just gotta

midnight nimbus
RSC and AL8 have the same exact damage model @solid hinge
brisk field
Lee enfield: am I a joke to you?
midnight nimbus
RSC just has good reload and doesn't cuck you for using good sights
solid hinge
That's lame! I thought it had like 70m before damage drop
K98 is subjectivly best change my mind
Destroying 6 churchils,3 valentines and a bomber with the StuG IV feels epic
Why would you use a sight on a cqc gun anyway:f
midnight nimbus
well they're midrange guns
not CQB
and SLRs are lame in general
just play assault
solid hinge
Yeah
brisk field
Yeah the fucking bolt action with the lowest fire rate and control and more suitable for longer ranges is better than a rifle with the fastest rof and good for rushing objectives
solid hinge
I’m the most unorthodox recon player
brisk field
I'm a bad recon
solid hinge
I can do good with K98 in CQC
And long range
But I mainly use stuff like the ZH for long range
cause it’s nice getting sports
brisk field
Well it's the Gerry bolt actions, they kick ass if you slap a 3x on it
