aerodrome only 
@solid hinge this is you when you just can’t do it https://youtu.be/NJrP6MoEeqw skip to 6:55
Not bad now but not great either
i only made 3 infantry kills (kennedy seat gunners on other tanks) and one churchill got killstealed by a panzerfaust
If you play AA tanks it's a good way to get to grips with vehicle movement while being useful to your team
i have a possibly stupid question.. do recoil reducing specialisations have any effect on hipfire at all?
and the other churchill i can't fire back because it keeps knocking me out of position and i can't aim back at them
Yeah AA tanks are a menace to infantry. It’s just whenever I run them, I always encounter other tanks more than infantry
like seriously tanks shooting tanks throw off the aim and position
i had a perfect shot on the turret all lined up, but the shot from the churchill knocks my stug back ever so slightly its gun depression can't aim at it anymore
and i have to move again, then get shot out of position
had to retreat
have engineer fixing me to 90 hp
cue the blenheim
MG42 is also ridiculously good
Yeah I feel as the Stug is too challenging of a tank
removing me from hamada
Feel like you’d have better chances going against the heavies with a short, smaller tank
ill eat my mcd and play another game fuck this
Course the British Valentine can easily mess up the Tiger if you get right next to it
ITS LEWIS
Lewis is meh
When I play AA tanks i generally play them as actual AA and hang back behind other tanks
it is lewis tho
wow what a video
I prefer the Bren if I go LMG
What kind of specializations do i have to put on my lewis
and then it is just nuts
And with optical or not?
I haven’t gotten the full specializations for the Lewis so maybe that’s why it’s not too good for me
@solid hinge personally I get so much better results with the lewis than any other lmg
lewis seems to be the most popular
AA sights, focus on accuracy specs
at least i always get killed by it
That’s true
I don't really play support for long range so I don't like the bren
And the fg42 I've never been able to get the hang of controlling
The Lewis is really accurate and when it's bipodded it can shoot so damn far
Big mag
Decent enough fire rate
The Lewis was great on BF1, but I just can’t get the feel of it on BFV
Lewis is overrated imo
Support is my main class and everytime I've used it it's just ehhh
It's damage feels very inconsistent imo
And it's hits in general
Something about it just never feels right to me
I can understand that
The lmgs to me feel like a class of guns where one is more likely to click with you than others
Bren and FG42 are my main LMGs but I mostly stick with my MMGs unless I know I'll be far more mobile than usual
Maybe I just like the Lewis cause it has the biggest default mag
But, I do prefer MMG’s over LMG’s. I swear by the truth that the only gun that beats the MG42 with the rapid fire specialization in close quarters is a shotgun
Mg42 in cqc is frankly demonic
I dont use Lewis at all because it feels like a boring weapon
even though it seems very versatile
I like to run FG-42 for sheer cool points
Lewis is a solid jack of all trades
FG42 is a monster in medium range
^
FG-42 is my 'im a support pretending to be an assault doo de doo da da' gun
If I'm going full tank support I'll use lewis
Fg-42 is to flex on medics with their feeble smgs

If im focusing on going after prime targets, FG42 is what I run. Scouts, medics, assaults getting way too close to an allied tank, etc.
God I love the Suomi lol
suomi is so fun
just back prone in a closet and its over
Suomi and Tommy seem the best smgs to me just cause they actually WIN in cqc
I really like the ability to lay down 100 rounds on a bipod with the lewis, as well as aim down sights standing.
hate getting caught moving between bipod deploys with MMGs, and hate running out of ammo with ke7/fg42
It’s like the Automatico, but much more focused on CQC
FG42 with the AT pistol is assault but a bit slow
That's why I like the Lewis
Less damage to tanks, but that’s what the ammo is for
I just wish you could run ammo pouch and ammo crate like you could on BF1
I was a master of keeping everyone up on ammo, whether they wanted it or not
MP40 is underated in CQC, I almost always win fights with that unless it's like against a Suomi or MG42 lmao
mp40 juggernaut anyone
I get my head shaved by mp40 the most
That’s true, I don’t run the MP40 usually because I run Suomi, but it was a beast when used right. Especially on that bridge in Amsterdam
MP40 and MP34 are my main two, I've just been trying to grind the 40 a lot more lately
I value ability of the suomi to have 50 mag alongside fast fire rate
Between suomi and mp34 all your medic dreams can come true
Yeah
Medic is a great class with its SMG’s, though sometimes I feel like they should have some non-SMG primaries to choose from
All your medic dreams providing they take place within 70 metres
use melee with extended range as primary
Lol
The reinforcement vehicles are the ones u can call w the sqad points?
Didn't one of the devs say medics were getting something other than SMGs?
tanker pistols from bf1 most likely
That might be interesting
give medics slrs
And also that they're fucking shit
whats.. whats a pistol carbine lol
give p1912
C96 with a stock
didnt someone say that the machine pistols were supposed to be super good
When they gave the assault the Frommer Stop Auto in BF1 I loved it
kht i think
ye
I hardly understand what a regular carbine is. Shit I've read is just like "its like a normal rifle but a bit smaller" and im like k
kht seems to be on top of all of it
Smaller round might be the distinction between carbine and rifle, I think
but kht said machine pistols are gonna be op
hmm
a pistol named astra 9000 going to beat suomi he said
you just said data says its gonna be shit
i got more kills with melee weapons than pistols lol
which i feel some way about
smaller cartridge as in like pistol cartridge?
what's better about these pistols than the current smgs? what are the tradeoffs
theres a difference?
Yeah, @mystic wolf
idk guns
hey
coz like I cant imagine armies want to be manufacturing more than 3 different munition types
I only think pistol carbines will be bad if you suck
Machine pistols are like full auto pistols
give recons carbine pistols 
ah k
Pistol carbines are like sticking a stock and sight on a c96
laame
if medic gets any gadget that can destroy tanks, i'd swithc
^
They're supposed to be new class of weapon for medic and they have godawful ttk
Like I’m sure carbines are usually automatic weapons that are more versatile than SMG’s, despite still running pistol rounds or something a tad bigger
I'm not sure who's getting machine pistols
Like the M4 Carbine is a decent example
So regular carbines are .. Smaller versions of weapons that fire full strength cartridges, and hence use intermediate. Pistol cartridges are smaller versions of weapons that use intermediate cartridges, so use pistol cartridges?
we coming up on the end of this chapter too, right?
still a few weeks left i trhink?
Eh, the M4 fires decently big rounds actually
id check but for some reason i cant check the TOW path ingame because DICE is silly
I can’t wait to unlock the archer and then BTFO enemy tigers with my pitiful gun
wait what kind of rounds does M1A1 Carbine shoot?
.45
aha
I'm assuming this is the kind of pistol carbine we'll get for medic
So logistically same as the 1911
.30 for M1A1 I think
So I think the more accurate divide between a carbine and rifle isn’t round size, but use
Thanks
Was thinking of the M1a1 Thompson
I think a carbine is just smaller, and is an intermediate between SMG and assault rifle
Carbines were made literally to fulfill the size requirement that lancers on horses need, since they didn’t need a full length rifle
Thompson was .45, so close enough
I dont understand this too well :< if medics would get a pistol carbine, and the M1A1 shoots .30.. and thats a pistol round yeah? then uh.. why is M1A1 an assault gun ingame? >_>
And from there it got even more muddles
I feel like im way off here
The .30 is a light rifle round
im not sure the lmgs and mmgs were defined like that irl
Barrel size should be important too
.45 is more accustomed to pistols and smg’s.
Barrel length I mean
so maybe they're throwing gun terms around for balancing purposes
i keep getting mixed up about cartridge sizes and stuff
Basically, cartridge size doesn’t even fucking matter in the game
Yeah lol
surprised to just read that .30 is bigger than .45
They focus on use. It’s not a medic weapon because it isn’t automatic
yeah im just trying to understand the firearms categorisation i suppose
Remember we had the Scar H in the assault class with the same amount of mags as the M4 in BF4, even though the 7.62 weighs much more than 5.56
The in game categorization of the guns is purely for balance
I need to get BF4 again, still haven’t found the disc
The battle continues in full force on Day 2 of the Battle of Hannut in Breakthrough. Attackers will fight to take and hold the capture points on the map.
Defenders start in control of the map, but fortify them quickly! A poor defense can quickly cost you valuable ground.
anybody not getting the new tank after the challenge nerf?
@jagged vector I wanna know about real life categorisation :p
Caliber and propellant power doesn’t carry well
Maybe the tank traps and the gun placements but that sit
Fortifications are good for making you feel secure
hope you're looking forward to 6 tanks and 4 planes either side on panzerstorm breakthrough
That will be nice

I feel like fortifications need a buff if only to stop the whack-a-mole meta in Conquest
if fortifications actually mattered, people might not want to just leave and go cap another point
they might gasp DEFEND
the last tank challenge went from 20 kills to 5 so I completed the challenge but haven't gotten the tank
Fortifications are decent, there's just too many assaults
Lol. I like fortifications sometimes because their presence allows you to recuperate
@mystic wolf the FG42, MG42, G43, & Kar98 all fire the same cartridge, 8mm Mauser
after I gold everything I will be playing support like 95% o the time HEH
Rule of thumb: Only build the fortificatiobs facing the enemy spawn
@jagged vector well that doesnt surprise me.. why'd you pick that one to mention? We were talking about carbines
mint gets it
I didn’t catch the whole conversation
Nerf the potential of destruction on assault versus fortified positions
The difference between a pistol & rifle carbine?
yeahhhh
ive been running onto points after dying from the enemy pushing and my teammates are literally getting shot in the back while they make the fortifications facing our spawn
Pistol is a low drag, but high potential gun in close quarters
I’ve broken that rule when I needed to build fortifications for an assignment lol
I don't understand why they do it
Scratch that
because I guess I assumed that rifle carbines use pistol cartridges
Pistol carbine fires pistol ammunition, usually small & straight-walled cartridges
Pistol caliber is a high drag, high potential gun in close quarters
Basically, you can’t use it for anything outside of close quarters because the bullet will quite literally fall off
how the hell yall know so much about guns jesus
Rifle carbines are essentially just shorter rifles. They usually fire intermediate to full size rifle rounds
I mean, it’s kinda just physics
what do you mean by 'the bullet will quite literally fall off' >_>
Carbines fit better for paratroopers over actual troops on the front
Literally falls down due to the weight of gravity
Yeah
but but that happens anyway
The barrel length does not support the type of range
The shorter the barrel, the lower potential barrel pressure buildup = lower velocity projectile
oh and if rifle carbines are essentially just shorter rifles, that means that K98 KURZ is a carbine! check mate hitler
Slower bullet don’t go so far
The more velocity, the further it goes before falling
yeah I get that I just found the expression 'quite literally fall off' to imply some kind of special difference
when its just a quantitative difference rly
Lol
Pistols are great as a defense weapon, but don’t give you much advantages compared to an SMG or PDW
Yeah, running the revolver is great when I’m in a pinch on ammo
Especially with only 50 rounds in the MG42, if somehow I don’t murder them in CQC, usually a quick round or two from the revolver will put them down
It’s lovely
I actually don’t know why they buffed it
yea revolver is just a 2nd primary
stupid revolver
Then again, all pistols should have very low ttk in cqc with headshots
Yeah but the revolver has no TTK because it can OHK
Exploity
But the revolver is not good anything farther than CQC
The audio grts fucked
Everything
guns sound weird
not even bf4 revolvers were this good
Footsteps
Voices
technology got worse 👀
it's just a bf1 revolver with bf4 damage
It’s the only revolver they have tho
stupid af
Seriously, all they’d have to do is give us a sawn off Shotgun as a secondary
I wish
And pistols would be the best CQC weapons in the game
It’s only a matter of time
if the primary shotguns cant kill
imagine what a 2ndary would be like
6 shot kill from 2m
The double barrel is the only shotgun worth running in my opinion
Primary shotguns can totally kill if you’re using slugs
part of me hopes they add a light mortar as a primary for some class
which will just leave every single person doing that using the revolver
Well
There's no time for a breather as the Battle of Hannut ramps up on Day 3 in Rush mode on Arras: an relentless onslaught of 64 players where attackers fight to arm two bombs before their respawns run out, and defenders do whatever it takes to stop this explosive plan.
mortar in one hand, liberator in the other, good luck soldier
There are larger capacity pistols and the Astra 900 coming to secondaries
Sometimes I try and limit myself just to that rifle round in the DB, and try to headshot people
It’s certainly a challenge but it’s fun
i wonder if anyone still plays post scriptum..
If I had something to play post scriptum on I’d play
Well it’s not totally confirmed, it’s just in the category of “pistols” in the leak list
Separate from the carbines
good heavens
All of those games that were supposed to fulfill the realistic combat niche that BFV wasn’t going to have almost died off
Only game I hear consistently is Insurgency Sandstorm
Machine pistol as sidearm
Chances are if it’s a full-auto pistol without a stock, it won’t be very controllable
Interesting if it happens
And it’s ammo count won’t be terribly high
The pistols already only function at like 8 metres
Per magazine, at least
I'd prefer a full auto as back up for that distance
Just enough to kill someone and reload
If they give me the Frommer Stop Auto, even without a stock, I’ll be golden
inb4 the 17 pounder will do same damage as 6 pounder
we getting a 17 pounder?
the archer
Yeah the 17 pounder on the archer is different than the 17 pounder on the CGC
watch as the archer becomes an even bigger disappointment than the stug
just you wait
Are you implying that the stug is disappointing?
i can feel it
Lol
Dice won’t make good tanks anymore
It's literally an ass cannon
They’re too fearful of the majority of the community complaining and leaving
The archer looks like a Marder
my stug is bomber fodder once its not assault and tank fodder
You need better positioning then
If you don't have any AA tanks on your team then it's down to you
That's just how it be
Imagine balancing a tank around it having a 360 degree MG port that doesn’t expose its driver
its been an asspain with the stug and im still not getting good results compared to just lolrolling with the valentine
sad because the stug looks so sexy
How exactly are you using the stug?
i want to love it but i can't
I just wonder if we will get to the heavier tanks. I doubt it though, unless they add them as hard-to-get reinforcements
im doing camping shit with it as recommended
Turretless tanks will always be more at a disadvantage unless you're really always just peeking
you need that second gunner too
the mg guy is unreliable because its not you on the gun
Yeah
Like I’d enjoy have the Jagdtiger as a reinforcement
You just need to be very cautious
the JT is just an even fatter cgc
That 20 objective kills assignment was to teach you be very cautious
Use that same mindset with the StuG
how do i position against a bomber
drive at a right angle to it
because i just pulled out safely from an assault mob, took a tank, and have a good remote gunner
If you attack the bomber from the side or above
then a blenheim invalidated me
Which map?
If you use speed attacking from under works too
hamada
i dont think edge of map camping in hamada is going to get me any fight
Camping on the EFG side of the bridge is a good place for stug
oh wait is this server only for bfv
No
It's for all of em
oh good
On the ground...eh not much can be done unless you have an eye on it. Moving targets are always hard on bombers
It’s difficult to spot good tank drivers when fighters are screwing with you
Your only chance against planes as a tank is towing an AA behind you, or getting lucky with one of your tank rounds
Even then dont go to the Prometheus school of running away from things (Aka dont drive away from a bomber in a streight line)
CHRIST every time I think about this my brain goes "WTF". I can't believe this game has been out this long already and DICE isn't doing the most obvious monetisation shit. They could have been selling just fuckin' EMBLEMS and all sorts of dumb vehicle skins to start with at least and making some goddamn money.
do you have stationary aa guns in v
Slowing down enough to get a good view of the map in only one run gets you killed, and multiple runs have you flying around without doing anything
Yeah there is stationary AA
@mystic wolf the boins arent ready
gotta get tumble-polished for a few more months
Limited range though, and usually bombed before anyone gets on them
Hello,how can I get a weapon from the chapter 1 ?
but they can be repaired
cmoooooon
Yeah they can be repaired
I dont usually spend money on premium currency shit but I will get some boins because I don't want EA to be like "welp, its shit, dump it"
ah I see
any news on the stug bug?
Imagine having to pay the company bribe money in order to keep them from trashing your favorite franchise
EA has fallen quite a bit
Oh right, I still dont have it and it says I do, that'd be a bug lol
don't buy boins just cause you don't want em to dump it
man the only reason im buying premium currency is that i want bfv to suceed
Remember when all the youtubers were praising EA for having no premium pass and then a month later they realized how fucked that was
They’d rise back up in reputation and trust if they let developers do what they want. Though the situation isn’t easy, so it’s hard to label a side right or wrong.
i mean i bought premium for bf1 and bf4 at full price
You gotta restart the game to get new stuff apparnetly
ugh its a hard situations
pls do not give money to EA for trashing the game you were looking forward to
I didn't play BF4 or 1 and I dont really understand the premium pass thing..
but its not trashed
(Highly doubt this will happen) They could sell skin packs based on real units at the time
ugh im conflicted though for real
Preimum Pass was basocally good for all the DLC for free when they came out. But im glad they did away with it
If there is any true lesson in this, it’s that a company is bound by its stock holders (if they have them)
don't trust companies
I didn't give a shit about how DICE's maps are all more obscure battles at first, or soldier customization, until I put 200 hours in and realized it felt nothing like the WW2 atmosphere I was hoping for before launch.
Lol, Ea is making back all their money and stock from Apex
now I'm kinda disappointed about the missed potential
idk im down for a more obscure ww2 setting
A live service is supposed to guarantee content too, this is literally EA being greedy
I’d quicker blame the stock holders over EA itself. I refuse to believe everyone in that company is blinded by that crap of equality. Little to no women fought in WW2. The only notable case I can think of is the Russian women who flew bombers.
specifically because we arent going to get another WW2 Battlefield for a long-ass time
I’m actually fine with the more obscure WW2 setting
"live service" also means like 1 map a year like they did to battlefront 2
Premium was one of the top 5 most hated things about Battlefield in general. It split the playerbase and the map rotation would straight up never go to some maps because no one liked them
Some of us have been playing the same 4-5 battles since Medal of Honor
ya ^
It might just be the random uniforms tbh, BF1 felt better with consistency across the teams
I do like the slight alt history that Battlefield was establishing. (ie how named soldiers in BF3, BF4 had realtives in WWI)
The maps are p great
I’d rather have them step away from some of the very common WW2 tropes like the bulge and D-Day, though I would’ve loved a Stalingrad Grand Operation if they will ever add something like it
@worn cave could just be uniforms lol
They promised seasons and maps and guns and star cards for battlefront 2 and literally didn't deliver on any of them other than the maps at a colossally reduced rate
thats why im burned
Don’t remind me
That's why you don't buy boins
Never listen to what a company promises
I mean it'd be a lot more dope to see an entire team of properly-kitted Germans defending a point than the whacky stuff we have now
omg I just got a bayonet kill with the MP34
thats why you play apex
Are you daft
^
yes
I mean, No Mans Sky was probably one of the biggest let-downs in recent gaming history. But now, after a while of the game being slowly updated, it is closer than ever to what was promised and I still love the game
That’s pouring water into a sinking ship
The officer in the cutscenes for CA has a nearly entirely correct uniform
I thought soldier customization was gonna be a lot more low-key with options being actual uniform implementations/slight stylized changes in clothing
I do not see how you can watch them fuck you over with a game and do the same thing to BFV and decide the best option is to throw money at them
cause i like bfv a lot
because there is literally no alternative? ;D
I don’t have money to throw away personally lol
im conflicted
not uhh a red jacket and a coat-full of small bombs
I love BFV as a game
me too
Aye
@native yoke doesnt work for pc though
people bought cosmetics for battlefront and it's still lagging behind on new stuff
i mean, restarting the game to get the stug
They literally ask for cosmetics to buy on a daily basis
yeah but thats because the playerbase dropped 80% after launch
really sucks that i got 18-19 kills out of 20...dice nerfs it to 5 kills and now i cant get the damn stug lol
Yea im not sure how to fix that one e3e
It's star wars, it still has a lot of fans
with TOW i think players will still play for new guns
Was it what we were promised? No. Is what I wanted? No. Is what it should be? No. Does it have a lot of issues? Yes. But I still love the game. Biggest complaint to me is that it’s getting kinda boring with the maps. Wish they would throw a few here and there while they work on DLC’s
Don't see why they couldn't do the German Eagle on uniforms but carrying an iron cross instead of a swastika
The most dedicated fans are the kinda whales who will drop fat stacks to buy all the cosmetics you release as well
comic book nerds
@coarse thunder I care less about specific symbols than overall style of clothing and headgear etc
@solid hinge you're pretty much right
Honestly, why do they care about the Nazi stuff? Germany is one of the few if not only nations that cracks down on that
Yeah cause they have disposable income from good jobs and no family
^true
Honestly i think BFV is the transition from WWI into WWII in an alturnate historical timeline. So we might actually see more recognizable stuff as the DLCs rolls out
I don't either, it's just there's basically a complete lack of any insignia
Barely any cosmetics in either game
On both Allies and Axis
It's weird
triple AAA game has 5 cosmetics options
Like ignoring the horrors of the Nazi’s over recognizing them is worse to the dead and survivors
weapon skins would be dope
they could make weapon skins forever and that would be cool
I wouldn't recommend buying boins just cause it'll still probably end up like bf2 and you'll get shafted for it
whats all this about alternate history
i might drop like 10 bucks on it not like 100 bucks
Cod WW2 at least freakin mentioned the holocaust. And I mean, BFV is mainly focused on the early War it seems but I don’t see them mentioning it in the end
honestly for a game that doesnt like nazis, bfv goes pretty light on germans
I understand a lil bit of money if you see something neat you do actually want
german does not automatically mean nazi
Yeah
it did in 1942
can we stop referring to all germans as nazis
thats like saying all americans are now republicans
Lol
or americans are trumpsters
Aye
there were heaps of German resistance groups 👀
i know peeps are peeps but like i wish they would go in depth on the nazi war machine
I do hate the Norwegian war story though, it disregards the actual people who did an operation similar to it, especially since it was released around the time the guy died
i thought they would do a war story about the child soldiers in Berlin in the last days of Hitler
would bhe interesting to see
Plus cant finish the war story
Yeah that would’ve been great
Goal character keeps spawning outside the map
ya i like the Norweigian campaign cause of skis
If you could pull of a war story like that, well without shoving propaganda in it, and just focus on the reality and horror that they went though, it would make the game a whole lot better
Yeah let’s have women and children get shot
some ppl would still call that propaganda
Well when it’s actual facts
:/
Maybe they should show the Allies bombing Dresden to high hell then
you cant objectively depict history
You can get close when you focus that both sides committed horrors
Aye. We need to remember WWII as it happened as well. A reminder to those who did lose their lives fighting for ether side and why we fought
Nobody gives a shit about actual history, they just want to hear what they want to hear
yeah but you have to make a choice about how ot balance who was 'worse'
And that’s the sad part @soft storm
and then how you intend to depict it wont necesasrily be how it is received
Not to say i dont like freereign stories or fictional stories during historiclal ssettings i love that
some did worse things than others, but there was no good side in ww2
Real history died decades ago
yeh
I’d rather have at least one war story on both side showing messed up stuff that happened
well we had to commit horrors as US, we had a "complete surrender" condition that required stuff like that
But acting like it didnt happen is disrespectful for a historcial game accurate or not
i dont like it
everyone gets their history from video games and pop films
but thats the political truth
thats why everyone thinks the red army was undersupplied, and they had blocking battalions everywhere
foremost example in my mind for some reason
i mean for example the allies declaring war on germany for invading poland (great!), didnt declare war on soviet union for doing the same to poland, finland, estonia, latvia and lithuania
Like the Last Tiger was pretty PG, just showing the Germans hanging their own for what they considered cowardice. But if they could show the allies bombing Dresden to the Stone Age, then they would have to amp up against the Nazi’s
its all politics
Unfortunately
but they countries got better at propaganda to jsutify the war
@gray glade thats kinda reductionist
its true tho
...
soviet union did all those things
or the German rapes by the russians in 1945
Yeah. UK invaded Iraq in WW2 didn’t it as well? Didn’t the USSR and UK also do something to Iran
no one talks about the rapes
but its not really a meaningful statement is it :p
it actually misdirects, while also being true
and you can do that with history
Yeah no one talks about the horrors the Soviets committed. If you wanna look at the actual horrors of WW2, you look at the holocaust, the bombings, and the eastern front
yeah eastern front was very dark
The World War Two Channel on Youtube is great. If you want week by week history in real time following the war.
well.. it was a war of annihilation
There only like 3 months in.
for the ussr anyway
*they're
The only companies that will depict real terror and very real topics are those outside of the US
imagine going to war, knowing that if you lose, everyone you've ever met would be exterminated
I’ve read a lot of books that do their best on being as factual and unbiased as possible on the war, and sometimes when it was going through the eastern front, I had to put the books down and go break something
i wonder if we're gonna get any more war stories, would love to see one from asia
eastern asia that is
Why would you want dice to spend more time on stuff that nobody plays
I smell a discussion about warcrimes commited in ww2 🤔
@soft storm the warstories were awesome in BF1
Like none of us were a part of WW2. But just knowing what happened on the Eastern Front, I can get very close to understand why they fought so savagely against each other. It’s hard to not get caught up in the sheer rage that the soldiers had
Most of these updates have been bug fixes, wondering when we are gonna get a big content update finally. A real update.
But they screwed it in bfv
The BF1 war stories were meh to me honestly
Nobody plays the damn singleplayer stuff unless they have no internet, the game is still downloading, or when there’s a prize at the end
Yeah that would be cool, but won’t happen
Read about what the Japanese did to the Chinese. That's horrible as well. Not one front was worse than the other. It was all bad.
i actually dont understand why the germans faught savagely against the reds
if dice makes war stories with the same care as "last tiger" i would support them doing more as long as it doesnt affect multiplayer too much
A Pearl Harbor map would be crazyyyy
There would be no infantry combat for Pearl Harbor though.
Read about the rape of Nanjing
Lmao
they'll make coral sea again for planes
Pearl Harbor wasn't even a battle lol. That map wouldn't make sense.
Yeah @solid hinge the Jap-Chinese Front was terrible as well
yeah
maybe the battle for manila
True
battle of singapore
oh yea non fictional is what we're after
lots of jap battles during that time period
Maybe a grand operation that goes with the operations that Japan did around the same time as Pearl Harbor
^
People tend to forget that the Battle of Singapore, Invasion of the Philippines and other US-British islands, and Pearl Harbor was a giant coordinated operation
afair the brits got their asses whopped at the battle of singapore?
its cause pearl harbor gets over exxagerated
when more people died in the other parts of the operations
@cinder pond That would be great. I mean the grand operation in Rotterdam never happened so DICE can do that too for bfv
Yeah
Finland holding off the massive Soviet Union invasion would be awesome.
Yeah Finland was dope. Maybe a war story about the White Death?
dice Dutch and french uniforms pls
Snow skis
deleting the dutch from battle of Rotterdam kek
Oof
did youse see my periscope post on the sub
Pointe du Hoc where you spawn in "airborne-style" but are climbing a giant rope net instead of jumping from a plane
The white death was 1 hell of a sniper
pls
i wish there were more uniforms that were factions rather than the generic uniforms we got
so i can rp french soldier
It is funny that it’s the British fighting at Rotterdam in BFV when I don’t think the British were actually there. Though I don’t care that much for it, I’m not that stuck up on the history
with RSC
well they team is supposed to be the Allies so really the Dutch are supposed to be at rotterdam
@cinder pond well they're dressed as Americans and edgelords so are they really even british?
but thats too much Voice Acting to make happen for one map ig
Fair enough
"oi m8 im bleedin out ova here"
I mean, Britain fought well in WW2. But they would’ve never got as far as they did without the US or USSR.
cmon guys its DICE interpretation of WW2 dont look at facts
None of them would have gone far without any of them. they all needed all the fronts.
Yeah that’s true
USSR is the only nation that comes to mind as the nation that would’ve fought their damndest against the Germans because the sheer horror of the eastern front. But the Soviets would not have reached Berlin before the Americans without American trucks lol
big respecto for the red army
People forget that the USSR and Germany were pretty much allies and signed deals to cooperate with trade and not intervene with each other. While Germany invaded poland the USSR invaded Finland.
Yes u have to die to use that
I just want operations to feel like BF1 operations ;^(
Oh dont gimme that USSR adn Germany allies bullshit
I called it 8 times in a row and i can t use it
thats so wrong its offensive
That's not wrong.
It is wrong and you should be ashamed
Even if i am in a solo team i csnt use it
Well yeah they were allies, but it was such a false alliance. Stalin believe that the Germans wouldn’t attack, but they did. Their ideologies were too different
They were'nt allies officially. But they agreed to not intervene with each other.
If they had fought together against the allies, it would’ve just ended in a Cold War scenario except the US is replaced with Germany
I mean fark Stalin was the one trying to get everyone to attack Germany before they got too strong
@stark badger You know what’s bullshit? The germans always said that they conquered Europe in order to save them from the ‘red plague’ (soviet communism) but like u said they made a pact in the beginning of the war with them
and he gave up on that plan because nobody would do it
who is this commie XD
rush blyat
damn commies always ruining everything lol
frick
yea
Of course they did @solid hinge lol, they would’ve been slaughtered in the Allies worked with the USSR against them
They literally signed a deal to see who gets what early on.
tis just realpolitik
Especially before they got a bunch of France’s equipment
commies know as much of history as i know about sex
👀
but didn't the French have bad equipment
I can’t stand those stupid arguments from neo-nazi’s 
you must have a lot of sex
french had good equiqment
French arguably had better equipment than Germans
problem was communication
Tank wise
yep
No, their problem was also strategy
Yeah @runic seal , they didn’t use their tanks like the Germans and their strategy was flawed
Germans had the aircraft.
france had pretty good tanks
they gambled and lost the bet
their strategy was sound but beilgium fucked them up
and that the huge german gamble succeeded *ardennes
One of the french heroes of Verdun in ww1 switched sides to in WW2 and became the leader of Vichy France 🤣🤣
It was both. They didn’t have the technology to coordinate like the Germans did, and they used tanks as infantry support rather than themselves, which meant that the Germans could’ve moved faster
the german military leadership was honestly quite impressive I think, to do as well as they did considering the circumstances
Yeah, German has the best amount of good tacticians
I mean Rommel, Manstein, Guderian, Model, etc
if you guys are intrested in these topic discussedin depth there is TIK and chieftain in youtube
well, they didn't quite have sound strategy. The French assumed that the Germans wouldn't be able to traverse the mountainous regions to the south and bring tanks with them, but that's exactly what they did.
The issue was that the rest of the world only had radios in their command tanks. Germany was different and had radios in all their tanks. That easily allowed them to coordinate and blitz effectively across Europe
It wasn’t until later that the rest of the world realized “shit that’s a good idea”
Yeah, Germany was up against a wall on ammo and supplies as well. They needed to win quickly, and that’s what they did
Rommel was not part of the battle of france
Weren't they also just 1 way radios?
Rommel was part of the battle of France lol
Nope
Radios are radios, better than signal flags
rommel was part of the france xddd
yea
in belgium
dude
Ghost Division?
yeah
thats why he got the gig in africa
Sup
But was not so important
Yeah Rommel proved himself as an infantry commander in WW1, then as a tank commander in France. They sent him to Africa because he ruled there, it was a supply situation that screwed him
Not TOO important
How is everyone doing
@cinder pond exactly
@weak violet im furious!
The British were too cautious throughout the war, especially in Africa
@gray glade and why are you furious?
Though I guess they did have fair reasons to be
time to suffer the stug again
They did smash France quickly
cuz i spent several hours to unlock the stug, but it bugged
so now im waiting for fix
from dice
They smashed france like the thot she was
And they tried so hard to secure france in ww1
im so disapointed that they put stug iv and not the real deal
Where is muh abrams
pls gib stug driver control for the remote mg dice please please
even the cgc is better
please give us stug 3 ausf g
yeah stug3 plz
We need some submarine gameplay if dice really wanna shake things up
So is the new tank bad
its an assault gun
i mean yea panzer iv was already modeled in game but cmon, its not that much more work
That 360 mg on is cool but you only have a cannon for the driver so it's a forced squad tank
All the tanks are bad, it’s just that the ones that don’t suck as much shine brighter
I mean, they do get fucked by everything
The small Panzer and small allies tank are the best, What are you Smoking??
the cgc is less squad dependeny than the stug
AP rounds for the win
The 50 assaults on the enemy team, the planes, other tanks, AT cannons
I said the ones that don’t suck so much are alright
So they really can not survive long
WHERE IS MY SHERMAN? By far the best tank of the war
You still get fucked by an assault panzerfausting you from 100 meters away
@soft storm I am saying what they get fucked by
Assaults, Supports, Pak guns, Planes, V1/JB2’s.
@runic seal tIdEs oF wAr
@stark badger Dude you know those assaults will snipe you with the pazerfoust
I mean I've had multiple games were I've gone like 30-0 with staghound with an auto cannon.
the question is, when we get the sherman, will it be the "default" sherman or the firefly
i8ts so cheesy xd
You have to be more cautious than a Christian girl on her prom night
You just gotta know when to move in and when to move out.
ive lost to staghound many times with a tiger
the visibility is so shit in this game and that thing is so mobile
best tank buff would be taking the sniper rifles away from assault
if you lose to stag hound with tiger you are too close
I mean like the shell the tanks fire do shit fuck to infantry
then maybe ppl will stop playing assault for the op guns
In BF1 you could shoot into a room and heavily damage infantry
and infantry should know if one was in the field, and do everything to destroy it
its like these are super soldiers
tfw tanks went from terror in bf1 to a score pinata in bfv
What drive me crazy is when people drive close to the enemy with the Tank BUster. It's a long range cannon!
yep
Tank buster in the right hands is op af
carrying 3 panzerfoust, 3 dynamite, and a fucking AT nade
remember that bf1 at gun was basically a rocket mmg
tigers are mostly long range snipers now, which i kind of like, it feels fitting
bipod only lul
Tank Buster has unlimitied ammo as well
what is tank buster
the class is absurd
T48 and I forget the other
you shouldnt be able to rape tanks as well as be able to go toe to toe with every other class
Your squad leader calls it in.
oh the pakwagen_
?
ya
yea yea
Does people actually carry panzerfoust over the PIAT?
those things are suicide xd
I mean that squad reinforcement has unlimited ammo and can fire into a area as long as the driver does not go into the fight
and unlimited shells
i use panzerfaust
PIAT is better
cuz i cba lobbing shots
pakwagen might be really good in panzerstorm if you have 1440p or 4k screen
really?
just wtf is wrong with this game
PIAT is anti tank and anti Infantry.
Piat is a noob tube
Its drop rate is cancer
on fhd i dont even bother to hurt my eyes anymore, i just bait myself and wait for the enemy to start laser beeming at me
Also it's really hard destroy stationy weapons when they are not in use
Nice you can stick 3 dynamite on the back of the tank, and then fire the panzerfoust
It's not that hard to line it up. Also don't you mean light tanks
every single thing about the assault class is everything wrong with the game
and fuck medium tanks
PIAT is 👌👌👌
You can do that with the PIAT too
One assault can take Valantine tank
gewehr 43 is so op
You spend a lot of the time running across these huge maps and you get piat'ed....... f that
cleanse the world of the fortnite construction and campers
I mean tanks get fucked in this game, so its not much of a achievement
I'mma be shocked if this game lives until the BR
One assult can take anything
not only that
I honestly am hating the G43 users
but the aiming on the tanks is now disastrously bad
More than 20 assaults in team Dice didnt see this thing or what?
if you dont aim with the scope then there's this disgusting jarring acceleration
my pet peeve of the day is when i'm driving my tank, trying to remain unseen, but my gunner shoots EVERYTHING
he's firing at the sky, at the ground, at the bushes
G43 isn't even that good lol
so the player base now is all the hardcore players? we ruling causal play out now?
I was saying assault was too strong and medic was alright long ago, but people kept telling me gitgud
compared to other SARs
assault was way way too utility in this game
Ap rounds gave good velocity.
Apex really put Battlefields BR too higher expectations. DICE must be sweating bullets now lol.
g43 is so good if you have good aim
assault is basically the default class
and steady fps
Yeah, feels like you can 1 man army the whole enemy team tanks
and all the other classes revolve around it
but if you have good aim... just use AG m/42
assault is the least fun class to play
the BR will be almost dead on arrival, promise you
^
nobody is going to pay even 20$ for this with apex out
I don't got good aim, but a decent computer
Apex Legends is killing it
just stop
yeah apex is so solid
go play that for 30 minutes and tell me its not so well done
I can't imagine BR being better then APEX right now. It's gonna fail so bad................. too bad..... another lost battlefield.
yall wouldve paid for Apex?
oh by the way its fucking free
another lost bf?
I would have.
bf1 is doing great tyvm
I love the light tank in BF1
If Activision is considering making Blackout free, you’d think EA would want to do the same
> BFV sales make EA stock drop 18% in one day
> Apex Legends makes EA stock go up like 27% with its release
I hope apex pulls a riot and focuses on new skins
i somehow have a much bigger itch to play it despite already putting in over 500 hrs
I'll support custom skins
rumored non BR modes in Apex >>>>
Bf1 kills Titanfall Apex kills BFV revenge? Its the same studio
BF1 online players has always been low af. compared too previous battlefields, (ahem except Hardline) lol
bf1 did not kill titanfall
Did they nerf the 12g auto
:P:
BF1 online count was fine during its life cycle
I cannot do good with it to save my life now
titanfall killed titanfall
whats your kd guys?
TF2 just isn't as good as TF1
apex needs work on netcode, the game is so fast though its hard to tell the shortcomings though, firestorm is gonna release with 60hz servers while apex is at 20
Too high
60$ is too much for a non-franchised, seated game
average player doesn't care about networking
Go to bot smap and lcgeck your stats
one person here, admitted they'd pay for apex
they dont notice because they assume they suck
Check*
and Apex TTK is very forgiving of bad networking
Apex is gonna get so much more EA focus. All the money it's gonna bring in compared to battlefield is gonna be ridiculous.
well yeah look at jobs
i feel like it deserves an asterisk beside it's rating cause its free
DICE is bleeding talent, Respawn is throwing out job postings like there's no tomorrow
DICE is as good as dead IMO
people are leaving DICE
they died when BF3 was launched
i wouldnt want to work in that enviroment
Respawn is hiring like crazy
Respawn lost like a quarter of its workers after Titanfall 2, about 12 got hired by infinity ward
dice still sold at least 7 millions copies.. while not good relatively, its still a lot of sales
they are obviously political
The fact that a free to play game is beating battlefield and it's only been out for a maybe a month is sad.
Apex was successful because there was no marketing to begin with
unless next BF is BF3/BF4 2.0
The marketing was on twitch
yup its free and snuck up on everyone
a f2p game beating non f2p... how is that sad? its f2p
Apex is successful because Apex is WELL DONE.
who doesnt like a surprise?
Apex is successful because it's a good game lol
No one was there to hate it before it even got released
so many twitch streamers were playing it with #battlefield-legacy-titles
Like with BFV
its a fucking solid game, it plays smooth and I've yet to have a moment I felt robbed via gameplay
holy shit match ended at 19/20 assignments ree
BFV just loading a menu I feel robbed
the ping system is some of the best communication done in any game
with hashtag ad i mean
Apex = Borderlands
its the same UI from the last game I paid 60$ for
Now its hype wait 2-3 months me could be death
Apex = titanfall you mean
Borderlands got one of the greatest loot systems in all games
they playtested the game in house with zero voice comms for a month
they did a great job and deserve praise
the robot on apex = Claptrap's cousin
the non verbal communication is incredibly good, and that matters in a MP game
it plays amazingly well
The greatest loot system is World of Warcraft get it straight
meanwhile, BF nukes its only form of non verbal communication
whats this deal with apex ping system being so well done, i havent played it
You don’t have to use voice chat at all in apex
Now EA is going to shut down dice in favour of Respawn
And diablos loot system
That’s how good it is
i will admit
but why is it good
You can ping anything
cause it can ping damn near anything
Because the ping systems allows you to communicate effectively without talking to 10 year olds. Or them insulting your MOM.
And your characters also speak about what you ping and what you’re currently doing for your team to know
wew the game ended when I'm at 19/20 objective kills
In BF1 i love the light tanks, I was a person who mostly played operations as a light tank, in a average round i could get 10 to 20 kills and 10,000 points. Using the light tank it felt good and i was not forced to go back into my base for more ammo.
people don't wanna use VOIP if they don't have to, VOIP with randoms sucks and always will suck
With the light tanks i felt like it was much more fun, and that i could help the team more.
VOIP with randoms do suck, agreed. The ping system is so you don't have to conversate and get into toxic comms.
BFV light tanks not so much, they feel weak compared to the light tank in BF1
toxic comms are what make bf great
While still being able to communicate well.
“Flatline here also ur mum gay”
Not to mention they also have text to speech options for text chat
first thing I do in BF is immediately mute everyone else
Staghound is OP.
I have about 1,253 kills in the light tank in BF1
I don't wanna talk to people who I'm not already on VOIP with on discord
@ancient ocean Really i felt like it was kinda weak
Imaging BFV with the ping system. DROOL
I’m just worried with what’s going to happen with dice
@weak violet have you used the auto cannon on it?
Imagine BFV with literally anything Respawn put in Apex
any FPS really with ping system would be great
no
