On April fools they add a hot air balloon that drops bombs by hand

[tight tusk]

I would pay to see that tbh

[hybrid dock]

Mosquito Mk IV is the new brit plane

its the bomber version

it could modified to hold the 4000lb cookie bomb

[idle breach]

Battlefront is star wars game

[vague hollow]

oof papa

[idle breach]

Meaning it got such loyal playerbase

Unlike bf series

[midnight nimbus]

huh FG42 isn't bad

kinda shitty w/o accuracy specs

[idle breach]

Yeah its goid

[midnight nimbus]

but nice with it

[topaz dome]

don't forget the semi auto mode

[idle breach]

Yep

Fg42 with scope looks so cool

But im stuck with iron sights

[midnight nimbus]

why use semi auto mode

LMGs are magdump

[topaz dome]

because it is very hard to mag dump when you are using the fg42 mid-long range

recoil is nasty

[midnight nimbus]

that's what right tree specs are for

[compact oxide]

Just use burst

[midnight nimbus]

why burst

just dump

no advantage to bursting

[topaz dome]

right side just helps with the bullet spread though, doesn't it?

and not vertical recoil

vertical recoil is the problem even with the reduction for me

[midnight nimbus]

right side = spread + hrec

both are big contributors to how bad a recoil pattern feels

more randomness = harder to identify your recoil pattern

reducing spread/hrec matter a lot for actual recoil control

[icy sluice]

So, after taking off the scope on my RSC, I think the Recoil Buffer might be a better choice

[solid hinge]

Hey KHy

Is the Bipod on snipers ever good

@midnight nimbus

Or would the other side be better

[midnight nimbus]

don't snipe

if you do, don't bipod

[solid hinge]

Why no bipod

Isn’t it a benefit for snipers

Cause if I have to use bipod on K98 then I will since Bayonet with a huge scope looks stupid

[midnight nimbus]

sway isn't that bad

and you don't have to use the last upgrade

[rocky verge]

anyone have the bf5 overture logo?

like the did for lighting strikes to download it

[topaz dome]

bipod might be good on high recoil self loading rifles, I haven't tried it though

[solid hinge]

Ik they are fine. Just the K98 with a bipod looks stupid to me

[solid hinge]

was gunner on a valentine archer last night .... was weird af going backwards but got quite a few kills

[shrewd grove]

The new grand operation is amazing

Imo

[midnight nimbus]

I hate Panzerstorm but I really enjoyed it with friends

for coordinated farming

[slender bramble]

https://i.imgur.com/zzCe5cc.png probably already found weeks ago but still

you have to "use" that phone for a long while but it loops around every time it finishes

although that might be because of these lag problems i've been having

[snow ermine]

for people that were grinding for the Stug IV: how do you like it costing 100 cc now?

[shrewd grove]

I'm fine with it because I actually got it before the deadline

Also why the FUCK does a blown up tank I'm using for cover that's not even on fire

Catch me on fire

[solid hinge]

got it on the first day, like the archer, no worries

going back and doing all the assignments to max the xp points

im getting my money's worth

[sand thicket]

Imagine dice adding a submarine reinforcement 👀

That would be cool

[thorn current]

what is this dogtag???

https://i.imgur.com/peDDyxr.jpg

[amber notch]

probably a new gamemode

[thorn current]

well I did find these strings in bfv.exe

0x143358638 (26): RspGameMode_AirSuperiority
0x143358658 (24): RspGameMode_Breakthrough
0x143358678 (29): RspGameMode_BreakthroughLarge

0x1433587a0 (22): RspGameMode_AirAssault

[solid hinge]

looks like what it says .. marksmanship for that gun

[thorn current]

it should be a picture of the shotgun

[solid hinge]

probably just a mistake, it happens

[thorn current]

could be that Air Superiority or Air Assault game mode

[unique crater]

How good are randoms at Combined Arms?

[shrewd bough]

china was in ww2

[unique crater]

Wow it put me in a 1 man squad...

[shrewd bough]

F

[unique crater]

I thought it’d team me with randoms... were it so easy.

[solid hinge]

uh .. people are saying they cant upgrade the stug thats purchased ???

cant check obv

[thorn current]

I've upgraded it once

[solid hinge]

ok must just be that guy

[thorn current]

@unique crater there is no matchmaking for combined arms

[little fjord]

So this is a thing... assholes have 4 or 5 alts on enemy team (my team).... we're attacking aerodrome breakthrough and they keep blowing up our own tank resupply stations in spawn

And then they stand in it so it can't be rebuilt

Another reason for rsp

So an admin can swiftly ban these scum

[solid hinge]

You shouldnt be able to destroy resupply stations,that would balance things out

[median skiff]

So what's the purpose of a bipod on a weapon like the selbstlader 1906 rilfe?

Does that prevent recoil?

[unique crater]

rilfe

[median skiff]

*rifle.

[unique crater]

[little fjord]

Yep... bipod on ribeye and zk acts like a crossover weapon for accuracy/recoil when deployed

I love the zk

[unique crater]

Question, is there a Conquest with Americans vs Germans?

[median skiff]

@little fjord Oh, I meant the recon weapon. 😃

[little fjord]

Probably reduces sway

Bipod is hardly needed on a recon rifle unless you're taking 300m+ shots

[median skiff]

@unique crater No, no American maps in yet. Everyone is British.

[unique crater]

no Shermans for me I guess?

[median skiff]

Some day soon ™

[little fjord]

Then the question is why would you need to shoot 300m

[median skiff]

Yeah, I'm with you there. I was just curious why the specialization was there. I always take the faster ADS when I can.

[little fjord]

Yeah

[median skiff]

(Since in the selbst for recon it's bipod or ads.)

[rocky verge]

Game dose not let me pick tank dies and respawn someone take tank why dice

[thorn current]

lol just been put in a grand operations match from matchmaking, I'm the only person on the server

[shrewd grove]

@unique crater Shermans are already in the last tiger campaign, and tons of American gear in the files

As well as calliope tanks

And the American M1919 browning MG

And the BAR1918A2

So we're definitely getting Americans

They just aren't in yet

And next month is Greece maps

[unique crater]

3 tanks I wanna drive before DICE closes this entry in a few years
•M4 Sherman
•IJA Type-95 Ha-Go
•T-34

[shrewd grove]

Lots of American stuff is in game or in the files

[unique crater]

The best boys

[shrewd grove]

And some Italian stuff

We also weirdly enough got Kuomintang helmets

And the Chauchat

There's also French helmets in the campaign but not in multiplayer yet, it'll most likely come later when they get to 1943

[solid hinge]

any japanese equipment in there

[shrewd grove]

I think there was 1 Japanese helmet for axis

Found in the leak caused by a UI problem that let you see all the cosmetics already in the files

[solid hinge]

should be a type 99 lmg

looks like a bren gun

[shrewd grove]

We really need the type 99

I love that gun

I really like top loaded LMGs for some reason

I can't wait for the Madsen

[solid hinge]

you know a lot of the tanks from the pacific battles are still on those small remote islands, american and japanese

not worth recovering

[shrewd grove]

Just load that shit onto a ferry smh

And leave the tank at my house

[solid hinge]

hmm

Japanese APC, Wake Island Lagoon

Doing over 150 gold assignments
Day 2:

Im slowly starting to forget how it felt to be free.
When my problems were school,love and social life...
But now there are gold assignments,
And over 150 of them.
God help me

[tight tusk]

sounds fun

[solid hinge]

Battlefield v sucks

[amber notch]

ok

[pseudo saffron]

🤔

[solid hinge]

ok

Look guys! He said bfv sucks!

See? Nobody cares

[ivory geyser]

Should we?

[solid hinge]

Ofc not

[ivory geyser]

[undone isle]

[compact oxide]

That's the guy who was trying to make people angry yesterday by saying that

[solid hinge]

13 days and we r getting the mosquito tank hunter

[undone isle]

what

[solid hinge]

What what?

A plane with a tank cannon

[gray glade]

What what in the butt

[undone isle]

from tow?

[ivory geyser]

@compact oxide lol

[solid hinge]

Yes

[tight tusk]

sounds pretty epic

[solid hinge]

6 pndr

I hope the last assignment for that tow will be Destroy 20 tanks with the british bomber

hope it comes with spotting flares

[tight tusk]

you mean destroy 20 tanks with the poop pellet launcher?

[solid hinge]

Liberator*

In a life

On hamada

In an objective area

[tight tusk]

damn

too easy

[solid hinge]

While attacking

with a B 24?

[tight tusk]

have to have over 50k squad point at the time too

[solid hinge]

be damn easy

As an axis soldier

[tight tusk]

pretty easy to do that tbh

all you gotta do is aim

not hard

smh

[undone isle]

so i guess this tow ill skip

dont like planes

[tight tusk]

why not

itll hopefully be the first british plane that can actually do something

[tiny loom]

Realistically we will never see anywhere close to 16 extra maps ever again will we? That the season pass once provided.

Be honest folks.

[solid hinge]

it seems unlikely

[tiny loom]

EA has ruined the BF franchise and DICE in the process. It makes me sad.

Let’s see what the BR mode brings next month. If it isn’t any good I fear the game is doomed.

[undone isle]

br will be shit

[tiny loom]

So what happens then?

If it fails to be great then what?

People will just move on?

[amber notch]

we wait and see what they bring next time

[tiny loom]

Damn 😕

[amber notch]

DICE/EA im pretty sure have learned from bfv

and i really hope they dont do something like this again

yeah its not a bad game, it needs polishing though

[undone isle]

i mean story, CA.. pretty shit, so BR will be same

[amber notch]

but jesus christ it needs it fast, it just feels boring, i dont know if its because the ERA has just been milked so fucking much but jesus

[tiny loom]

It does feel boring I agree with you 100 percent. It definitely lacks the excitement of BF4. Heck BF1 had more excitement too.

[topaz dome]

first oof'ed battlefront 2 then oof'ed bfv

[tiny loom]

I don’t get how they’ve ruined legendary franchises. Is it just that they rushed the games out with not enough content?

[amber notch]

they have one more shot with battlefield, i can honestly say that

[ivory geyser]

Yeah

I agree with POW

[amber notch]

people want modern, people want Vietnam

[thorn current]

some NEW maps would be nice

[amber notch]

its always something

[thorn current]

not just the same map at night

[amber notch]

the tracers look AWESOME

seriously

night battles are cool asf when you see tank shells fly across the map, and you see a spitfire gunning down troops on the field

its amazing

but I want a modern battlefield, and it needs to be good, otherwise I fear for the company

i really do.

[undone isle]

i dont like modern shit

[amber notch]

Like I love dice, i really do, they are a great team, but I dont know what happened with BFV, its really set a bar for FPS games now

and the bar isnt good

[undone isle]

mostly why i bought bfv is because ww2

[amber notch]

yes so did i

I dont care about the women shit nor the german soldiers bullshit

its not an issue

Its just the game feels so BORING

[undone isle]

idk

14d playtime so far

still funny for me

and women? i ldont care neither, but still waiting for some decent skin, long hair and stuff like this

[solid hinge]

thats just it, its been done so many times, I think there are 2 possibilities not done by Battlefield.. one is the 80s and 90s .. all the small cold war and post cold war wars .. Grenada, Bosnia, Serbia, Falklands, Angola, Indonesia etc .. the other may work is the Korean War.. Korean War is interesting because you would or could have jets vs pistons, modern vs ww2, and so many battles to choose from ... The third is more remote .. a Battlefield style game about the Dune Franchise to coincide with the movie

[amber notch]

Cold war

[topaz dome]

medic can be hectic, is that boring?

[amber notch]

would be amazing, seriously

[solid hinge]

yeah it would

[amber notch]

Cold war type of shit, games like tarkov is focused around AKs etc

all russian stuff

[topaz dome]

*steals idea*

[amber notch]

and jesus, i want them to do cold war, that would be amazing

with the photorealism etc

😩

[solid hinge]

I bought anthem

[undone isle]

cold war would be cool

[solid hinge]

K that was random

My bad

[ivory geyser]

Buy Division 2

[solid hinge]

I pre order it

Just now

[undone isle]

isnt anthem same boring shit like destiny?

[solid hinge]

kinda

I haven’t play it yet

Might try it out later

Any of you plays Apex?

[amber notch]

majority of people here play apex

[ivory geyser]

I do sometimes

[undone isle]

tried, played 2 games, boring af, never again

[ivory geyser]

Not a huge fan of it tbh

[amber notch]

But i wouldnt ask here, go ask in the apex server if you are trying to LFG

[solid hinge]

@undone isle what

It’s fun wdym?

Well I only play PUBG or Apex that’s all ig

Not really into fortnite

[undone isle]

i dont like br in general

[solid hinge]

Isit because it’s too Long?

How do I get those weapons missed from previous weeks?

[amber notch]

@solid hinge buy them with CC

[undone isle]

you can buy it

[amber notch]

you should be able to now

[solid hinge]

from where?

I can't find them in armory :/

[amber notch]

go to your weapons

on the class you want

it should be in there

[undone isle]

not rly, apex is about 20 min, but the style.. i mean you drop off, find loot, get kills, loot em, then someone killed you, end.. and finding new game @solid hinge not for me

[solid hinge]

got it thanks 😃

[undone isle]

btw the new tank is pretty cool

40 ammo, fast, decent dmg

much better than stug

[solid hinge]

any tips to boost up cc faster?

[undone isle]

maybe CA but its boring af

the best way is just play and you will slowly earn it

[solid hinge]

@undone isle well u gotta be quick and beware of your surroundings, have u ever drop smoke: while looting?

[undone isle]

i got around 150k.. so basically i dont care about cc anymore

[solid hinge]

can you gift :p

[undone isle]

hehe

[solid hinge]

Well I don’t really play with randoms actually I only play with my friends so we would normally cover each other while looting

it’s harder to play with randoms cuz they apparently just ignore you

[undone isle]

like i told before, i played just 2 games of apex.. so i dont know much about this game unless what i saw from stream

but yeah, both games were with random, nobody used a mic 😄

[solid hinge]

Oh

@undone isle Are you using a console or a computer?

[brisk field]

specialization bug sucks ass

[unique crater]

Ugh, lag is cruel

I had the bomb, I was planting it and the game kept reading it that I was letting go of the button to arm the bomb

[static zodiac]

willing to sell my origin account with battlefield V in it for just 30pound

please dont ban me if this isnt allowed as i will simply delete my message

thanks

[undone isle]

pc master race @solid hinge

[unique crater]

selling bf5 for 30pound
Little expensive don’t you think?
5pounds

[static zodiac]

@unique crater i could sell for 25

[solid hinge]

am i the only one who still faces some bipod issues

[undone isle]

Bipod? 😡

[little fjord]

@solid hinge such as

[solid hinge]

deploying it is hard sometimes

[little fjord]

I think it's better than it was but bipod is annoying at times

[solid hinge]

yeah its better but still has some issues

rip

[little fjord]

I don't know what they could change

If it just deployed whenever I wanted it to it would basically deploy anywhere

😆

Then it would be op

[solid hinge]

it's mainly bugging when lying down

[little fjord]

I think the main issue is it just being obvious when it will or will not deploy... so you're not guessing or surprised... and that's not easy

[solid hinge]

i look sideways and suddenly it undeploys even though I'm literally on exacrly the same spot

[little fjord]

I think they added that in on purpose

[solid hinge]

[little fjord]

That you have 80 degrees of sweep and if you turn outside of that the bipod redeploys

Because it didn't used to do that

[solid hinge]

it doesn't redeploy though!

[amber notch]

[little fjord]

It pops you out of bipod aim and then right back in

[solid hinge]

it acts like I'm holding it in the air instead of above some very flat and stable land

[little fjord]

Which sucks if you're tracking a target

Or sweep fast to one side to shoot before you get killed

Then u get killed because redeploy

😔

I think the whole bipod thing is tough for them

Normally your axis of aim is yourself

But if you bipod technically the bipod should become the axis

Then it gets all wonky with how to control that

Like it's different when you use a stationary mg... but should kinda work the same

[solid hinge]

Yeah

I'd like if it was something like that

[little fjord]

Bf4 bipod was kinda like that

But it sucked too

[wanton orbit]

Has the discussion regarding assignments gone live on the subreddit?

[little fjord]

Mostly bf4 bipod was restrictive to your aim/movement and it would deploy when you didn't want it to

[wanton orbit]

Cancel

[little fjord]

Assignments?

[wanton orbit]

https://www.reddit.com/r/BattlefieldV/comments/at6ctc/discussion_assignments_missions/

that

[solid hinge]

Yea,1 one life headshots gotta go

[wanton orbit]

Yeet that shit

[solid hinge]

Its 2 hard for what you get

[wanton orbit]

The CC reward needs to increase. I feel at the moment they are making it too grindy to encourage boins when they come....

I dont mind if it was just for consmetics, but you also use CC for effectively your weapon/vehicle attachments

which is very un-battlefield

[gray glade]

What if hair will be a commodity reserved for boins

the horror

we are doomed to baldness forever

[errant solstice]

Well BFV attachments are next to non existent

[wanton orbit]

Well, the specialisation system is a close comparison i.e things you apply to your gun/vehicle to change it's attributes/performance

[errant solstice]

Ya but I wish they had options like a cloth grip and speak of the devil make the bipod detachable

Extended mag it's what killed bf1 for me was you unlock a weapon and that was it except for cosmetics

I feel like alot of games are heading in this direction only cosmetic unlocks and then make the Microtransactions all about cosmetics but I do enjoy the free dlc

[solid hinge]

I finished over 50 assignments in 2 days

What the hell

So I was playing anthem

I lost connection

And I gotta restart again

Bs

[low quail]

@solid hinge Anthem is Battlefield?

[swift condor]

It could be

You never know

[solid hinge]

mannnn the ju88 is ridiculous

also can anyone just confirm

if the MMG upgrade if for the back or front seat?

the seat switching in this game is just retarded

[swift condor]

Underneath

[solid hinge]

on planes?

It's both gunner positions isn't it?

i cant even use the rear one since it's so extremely limited

i tried the front one and it did 50 damage to a spitfire on one run

so im guessing that?

the JU gets a front seat?

I thought both the guns faced backwards

it's called a front seat ingame lol

but yea it's the gun underneath

Oh whoops

I'm pretty sure they both get it, but the underneath seat has two guns

While the top one has one

So it'll do more damage

it really shreds with the upgrade

[swift condor]

Blenheim 360 turret

[solid hinge]

ikr

i can just one man the ju now

blenheim no bombs

[swift condor]

It does?

[solid hinge]

so much weaker than the ju88 it's ridiculous

[swift condor]

Yeah it doesn't have 1000kg bomb unfortunately

[solid hinge]

or 500kg

or the same carpet bombing capability

According to the stats, the blenheim 500lb bombs have the same stats as the Ju-88s 250kg bombs

and the blen only gets 2 of them

[swift condor]

Dice stop dicking the British please, save that for the game

[solid hinge]

and the JU can upgrade to 500kg bombs

it also only gets 8x 50 lbs

vs 16x 50 kg

and no hmg gunner upgrade

and the other version with the spotting camera is stuck with 50 lbs bombs

just wtf

If you take the spotting camera does it remove the bombs

no idea

im not going to torture myself trying to level that up

but i wouldnt be surprised if it did tbh

I've got it to level 2 but I specced the right side first

[swift condor]

I'm upgrading it now so I'll let you know

[solid hinge]

Trying out the nose turret on it, it just feels like a shit JU-88

it's a gimmicky piece of shite

do let us know plz

[stoic breach]

Fucking waste of time playing Battle of Hannut with a shit team

[solid hinge]

the supply drop is hard to aim and doesn't show up on the map so no one knows you've dropped it

[stoic breach]

And then the enemy top frag went like 92-12 with the M1 Carbine

[solid hinge]

Paradrop is broken

so it's literally just the ilya muromets except without the strategic bomber bombs

it's essentially a fat piece of shit with no redeemable points yeah

[swift condor]

I love joining a game and seeing a yellow bit of texture on the right to let me know I have 177 ping

[solid hinge]

It's whole selling point seems to be the paradrop spec but it literally is broken

So it has nothing

the only hope for me is tow and how frequently they're adding in new content

I'm hoping for more gadgets

and less guns that are a variation on existing ones

less bf1 guns too lol

MAS functionally plays like a better turner

what even is the m1907 doing here

[haughty pawn]

thinking about respeccing the blen to the 4 forward guns and bombless and going for stuka hunting

[solid hinge]

how good are the 4 guns

[stoic breach]

What 4 guns

[haughty pawn]

no idea,never tried them before

[solid hinge]

The same as the mosquitos, apart from you're in a fat bomber so everything will out turn you

[stoic breach]

Oh im stupid

Nvm

[solid hinge]

shiet

Also the mosquito gets the 4 x 20mms

So...

what's the mosquito supposed to be anyways

[haughty pawn]

that's why i say stuka hunting,rest is too fast

[solid hinge]

just a big dogfighter?

If anything gets behind you in the mosquito you're usually fucked unless you can land

But you have heavy firepower

[haughty pawn]

iirc there is an engine and other flight stuff upgrade for the blen

[solid hinge]

4 x lmgs, 4 x 20mms, and 4 x 250lb bombs

hmmmmmmmmm

landing

i used to do that a lot in bf1 lol

when the throttle actually slowed u down

You can kill Ju-88s in like 2 seconds with the cannons

seems hard in this game

the landing is really finnicky

once i literally body slammed my plane onto a mountain in fjell

only lost a bit of health

you dont have another option as mosquito though

other time i tried to land with full health and i exploded because my rutter tapped the floor

rudder*

If the wheels come out, you seem to get like.. massively reduced damage

when bumping into stuff

[haughty pawn]

what?mosquitos never kill my ju,never,only those spitfire with 8? cannons shred me

[solid hinge]

oh that makes sense

so maybe that crash landing mechanic they showed us does exist to some extent

It's VERY dodgy

I landed and tried to take off

And as soon as I started going forwards one of my wheels hit a pebble and i died

Literally a pebble

A normal soldier would have been able to walk over it

[haughty pawn]

you can land in hamada on the cliffs,on the other hand,slightly touch the resupply pole and you insta explode

[solid hinge]

The 8 x lmgs do a lot of damage, but the 4 x 20mms objectively do the most

well the 37mms do the most but brits don't get it

[little fjord]

Did you take 20mm or 8x guns on mosquito

[solid hinge]

Mosquito doesn't get 8 x lmgs

[haughty pawn]

mosquitos are easy to shoot down,they are just some wood

normal backgun of the jus is enough

[little fjord]

I'm thinking the other fighter

[solid hinge]

Either 4 x 20mm, 2 x hmg or a couple rockets

I use the VB instead of the VA

I like the agility increase

[little fjord]

Have I been using the wrong mosquito?

[haughty pawn]

blen is just sooo crap,i could cry all day,but still i got my most kills with it

[solid hinge]

There's only one!

Mosquito is the heavy fighter

[little fjord]

[solid hinge]

The little ones are the spitfires

[little fjord]

Yeah, spitfire

[haughty pawn]

spitfires are crap to lvl imo,but on lvl4 they are just dope

[solid hinge]

does the spitfire have any bomber killer insta gib specs?

like rockets maybe

[little fjord]

I die alot and don't seem to kill much even if I hit alot flying spitfire

[haughty pawn]

no need,they got enough gun power lul

[little fjord]

I like the flares so far tho 🤷

[solid hinge]

The rockets are unnecessary imo

[haughty pawn]

you can also perma fire with them,just switch between the ligh and heavy cannons

[solid hinge]

I pick VB with the 4 x lmg and agility increase

The 2 x 20mm do heavy damage and break wings almost instantly

If they aren't giving you a clear shot then maintain fire with the lmgs

[haughty pawn]

the only insta kill figher is the stuka with the 2x heavy tank cannons

[solid hinge]

Being able to swap between both is really nice

[haughty pawn]

if you hit,you kill almost anthing in 4 shots

[little fjord]

What spec at lvl 4 makes spitfire good?

[solid hinge]

The 4 x 20mm on the mosquito can kill incredibly quickly if all the shots hit, but it has considerable spread

Most people pick the VA spitfire for those 8 guns

[haughty pawn]

yep

i run light and heavy to switch for nonstop fire

VB

[little fjord]

I found that trick

[solid hinge]

Same

VB as brits and G-2 as germans

[little fjord]

But I'm still missing something... it'll take me forever to level these planes up

[solid hinge]

Both with agility increase

[haughty pawn]

level figher is a pain in the ass as almost everyone is lvl4

[solid hinge]

Fighters generally do better on maps with more than 2 planes a side

[haughty pawn]

just go conquest/GO fjell,chaos but fastest way

but you will get shot down a lot aswell

[solid hinge]

I personally hate fjell for it

[little fjord]

Yeah... I noticed that today... breakthrough not so good as using light fighters on conquest

[solid hinge]

Enemy team is always like 8 fighters

[haughty pawn]

breaktrough is good for bomber lvling

[solid hinge]

Breakthrough usually only has a couple of planes so people tend to use heavy fighters and bombers

[haughty pawn]

don't lvl any plane on panzerstorm 😉

[analog stag]

Are you feeling better Ayla?

[solid hinge]

Indeed!

[little fjord]

I got the Blenheim to 4 back in December on breakthrough

[analog stag]

Good good.

[little fjord]

That was a miracle tho

[brisk bear]

Ea fix the servers, when i buyed the game i dont see nothing but now i have the server orange and red

[solid hinge]

Breakthrough is easiest for bombers, cause everyone funnels into one of two points

Bombers are harder on conquest

[analog stag]

That is very true.

[haughty pawn]

sometimes you get lucky and nobody of the other teams likes flying,like 1 in a 1000 matches

[solid hinge]

Heavy fighters are also harder on conquest

[little fjord]

Or breakthrough is just bombers

everyone on the ground

[solid hinge]

Very often breakthrough is 2 bombers on both sides

[prisma lichen]

Oooo flying

[haughty pawn]

fjell is fastest,but also needs some frustration tolerance

[analog stag]

It's an explosive dream.

[solid hinge]

No fighters at all

[little fjord]

It's cancer tho

[analog stag]

Everyone bundles up to be evidently killed in battle.

[solid hinge]

That's where you pick the mosquito and keep the air clear for your team

Or the B-2 stuka

[haughty pawn]

funny thing on breaktrough with bombers,they almost never attack each other

[solid hinge]

bomber destroyers

[swift condor]

When the people on your team pick up the explosives but don't take them to the objective

[analog stag]

There were like 10 guys on a building that got blown away.

You are so right.

[solid hinge]

The bombers don't do high enough damage to be able to kill each other

[little fjord]

I have to start flying the mosquito and stuka instead of the bf109 and spitfire

[solid hinge]

The mosquito is a pain in the ass to level

So is the stuka

[prisma lichen]

Anyone got any tips for flying successfully through the bridge in Twisted Steel?

[amber notch]

well yes after the nerf it is

[solid hinge]

Both their good upgrades are at level 4

[analog stag]

It's not too bad.

[amber notch]

because the quad cannons dont do damage to tanks etc

its useless now

the mosquito had its turning reduce as well

[analog stag]

I have some good piloting skills if I do say so myself.

[solid hinge]

It's not useless! It destroys bombers

[haughty pawn]

if i anyone dares to shoot down my bomber i'll go AA their asses of the sky til they don't return !

[amber notch]

yes because its designed to do that

[analog stag]

Well yes it does.

[amber notch]

but fucking hell it was a glass cannon pre nerf

honestly you cant deny that

[analog stag]

It's a good anti bomber craft.

[solid hinge]

It's a glass cannon that shoots nerf darts now

[amber notch]

its still good against bombers

[haughty pawn]

too bad the stats don't show your AA kills

nerf darts lul

[amber notch]

fighters not so much because they are so nimble

[solid hinge]

It feels unfair that the b-2 stuka gets a bomber destoyer that also destroys tanks

[analog stag]

True.

[solid hinge]

I only play mosquito on breakthrough normally

[haughty pawn]

yeah ffs,4 shoots my archer!

[analog stag]

I need to try that new Valentine Archer tank I got.

[solid hinge]

Mosquito generally has enough hp to try and attempt a landing to get a fighter off your ass

[haughty pawn]

it's crap

[solid hinge]

but only one

[analog stag]

I hope it was worth it.

Really?

[haughty pawn]

nope

yeah,it's crap

worst of all tanks

[analog stag]

It's a tank destroyer.

Yeah.

[haughty pawn]

only good for long range save spot hardcore camping

[solid hinge]

Archer has a high ammo capacity and it's he shells do slightly more damage than the valentines AP shells, so it can alternate between smacking tanks and aiming for infantry

[haughty pawn]

aka boring

[analog stag]

Witch is what destroyers were for in the first place.

[little fjord]

Archer slays... but there seem to be better options for at and ap

[solid hinge]

but it's fragile and has sub-par velocity

[analog stag]

which*

[haughty pawn]

the maching gun accuracy of the archer is just plain shit

[little fjord]

Archer seems squishy

[analog stag]

It's a destroyer.

It's garbage at short range.

[solid hinge]

It gets a spotting scope so you could play long range support doinks on a hill or something

[haughty pawn]

it's boring to play

[little fjord]

But I haven't tried the apcp (whatever they're called) rounds vs a tank yet... don't know if they're any good

[haughty pawn]

and brings not much utility for your team

[analog stag]

HE shells should be good if you can get one through.

[solid hinge]

the stats say the extra rounds suck, but im hoping they were entered wrong or something

[haughty pawn]

they don't have HE shells

[analog stag]

Oh well.

[solid hinge]

The default rounds are always called HE in the files

[analog stag]

I am a tanker in War Thunder

[solid hinge]

even though they really aren't very explosive

[little fjord]

I'll try extra ap archer rounds on tanks today

[haughty pawn]

ye,default are nothing special

[analog stag]

You need good shells to get through it all.

[haughty pawn]

archer with apr rounds is like a bad version of the staghound

[little fjord]

The blast looks huge on default rounds but you still need a pretty direct hit on infantry

[solid hinge]

You can actually damage tanks so it's slightly better

[haughty pawn]

stag is at least fast af

[analog stag]

The Stug is a good German tank.

[solid hinge]

The splash radius on normal archer rounds is exactly the same as the 6 pounder on Valentine

hey try the rear facing gunner, its wild in CQB going backwards

Neither excel very much

[little fjord]

I like the stug because it's fast and the gunner seat is really good

[haughty pawn]

i played my archer yesterday on aerodrome on breaktrough,splash dmg is so low,almost a joke,kills only with direct hits

[little fjord]

Stug takes a beating too

[analog stag]

That is so dumb.

[solid hinge]

at first I didn't realise I was in an archer .. I was thinking Mr Bean was driving the tank backwards

The panzer 4 and stug default gun actually has a surprising amount of splash

[haughty pawn]

stug is in any way better than the archer

[analog stag]

The StuG was very armored and slanted and low to the ground.

[little fjord]

Splash looks huge by the animation but its not that big

[analog stag]

I never got the StuG so I can't play it.

[haughty pawn]

splash is tiny

[solid hinge]

Stug in bfv has the same gun as the panzer 4

[analog stag]

I do have one on WarThunder.

[solid hinge]

its 100CC this week

next week the price is 2500

[haughty pawn]

after all,for me at least,it wasn't even worth lvling the archer to 4 lol

[analog stag]

Can I purchase the StuG?

[solid hinge]

yep

100 cc

The only difference is if you upgrade the guns and use AP rounds, the stug gets an extra 100m/s velocity on the shells

its on twitter

[analog stag]

Where?

I need to get it.

[swift condor]

Go to your company and look at the tanks

[analog stag]

And then I purchase it right?

[little fjord]

I was hoping archer was a little better because I generally just use the staghound for allied... need another good allied tank

[haughty pawn]

i did go mixed on the stug,long cannon,skirts and ap launcher,happy with that spec

[swift condor]

Yeah

[solid hinge]

@BFBulletin tweeted this at February 22, 2019 at 12:14PM: http://twitter.com/BFBulletin/status/1098888696441593856

Stug purchase

[analog stag]

I WILL BE BACK!

I am going to play.

[solid hinge]

[analog stag]

Thanks for the info.

[haughty pawn]

archer is for me the biggest dissapointment so far in regards of tow rewards

[analog stag]

Bye!

[solid hinge]

Battlefield V - The STUG is now available for purchase in your company for the almost free price of 100 Company Coins. This is offer will be available for one week due to the issues we had, and then the price will change to 2500. Please enjoy and get that tank!

I was hoping the stug would be a better anti tank tank

I don't think I'll swap the tiger for it

[haughty pawn]

hmm,stug is an infrantry tank after all

[analog stag]

Yall.

[haughty pawn]

tiger is finally good

[little fjord]

They could buff the cannon on stug and archer

[analog stag]

the StuG and the StuH were tank destroyers

[cinder pond]

Yeah the Stug should be buffed

[analog stag]

The StuG was more for anti infantry also.

[cinder pond]

Not too overpowered though, but a little bit

[haughty pawn]

if they buff the stug then the tiger becomes obsolete

[analog stag]

The StuH was for tanks.

[solid hinge]

Stug literally does exactly the same damage as panzer4

[haughty pawn]

stuG is infantry ttank

[analog stag]

Yes.

[little fjord]

Well buff the archer anyway

[cinder pond]

Lol maybe on BFV

[analog stag]

They were mostly used like that.

[solid hinge]

On bfv i mean

Not in other stuff

It sucks

[cinder pond]

It’s gun is quite weak though

[haughty pawn]

stug ?

[analog stag]

The StuG was low to the ground.

[haughty pawn]

same as panzer 4

[analog stag]

It was very highly armored and slanted.

[cinder pond]

Yeah. I’m just used to War Thunder, so that’s what makes it feel weird

[solid hinge]

It doesn't feel highly armoured

[haughty pawn]

ah

[analog stag]

Yeah same.

[solid hinge]

[haughty pawn]

it is higher armored than the archer

[solid hinge]

Not when you have a Churchill bombing your ass

[cinder pond]

That’s true

[analog stag]

the SU on the other hand was garbage until you had the SU 100.

[cinder pond]

I like the Churchill more than the Tiger tbh

[analog stag]

Same.

[little fjord]

I wonder if the tanks have hidden stats for glancing blows.... like I wonder if stug receives higher % of glancing blows than other tanks

[haughty pawn]

tiger can 2 shot an archer

[cinder pond]

Yeah the Russian tanks were meh until you got farther down the line

[analog stag]

The churchill is supposed to be very higly armored.

[little fjord]

Like sturmtiger seems to always receive glancing blows

[solid hinge]

I like the tiger for it's pureness

[cinder pond]

Yeah the Churchill is definitely an infantry tank

[solid hinge]

It's just a big tank

[analog stag]

the T-34 for Russian tanks is very good.

[haughty pawn]

maybe if you use the long cannon you get less glancing blows

[solid hinge]

Churchill sucks if you don't get howitzer, and then it has REALLY slow rounds

[cinder pond]

Yeah it is, you either run the T-34 series or the KV’s as the Russians

[haughty pawn]

higher velocity rounds

[analog stag]

I love the KV line.

[cinder pond]

I hated going against them though lol

[analog stag]

They dominate the battlefield.

Same.

I use my StuH to blow them away for sure.

[cinder pond]

I always played medium tanks as German, working my way to get the Panther and then the Tiger

[analog stag]

It's green almost everywhere with them.

Same.

[cinder pond]

The PzIV with the 75mm gun was great against them too

I think it was 75mm? Somewhere around there

[analog stag]

So is the Pz IV F2.

[cinder pond]

Yeah

It just got more difficult when their turrets started being rounded

[analog stag]

It did.

And because of low funding it was turned via crank.

[cinder pond]

I love the US Hellcat though, probably my favorite tank in game

[analog stag]

It wasn't automatic like most tanks of that time.

Same.

[cinder pond]

Ah yeah, I remember reading about that

[analog stag]

Imagen being in a Maus though.

It must have taken all day.

[cinder pond]

Lol

[haughty pawn]

reminds me what's crap on the archer aswell,slow AF,turning takes forever,speed like a snail,back machine guns is usless,front machingun is about as accurate like throwing bananas !

[cinder pond]

Oof that sucks

British tanks usually aren’t good anyway but this isn’t War Thunder, we can have some leeway in that department

[analog stag]

General How far did the turret move since I was last here. tank officer 2 feet sir. General That is fast!

[cinder pond]

Lol

[haughty pawn]

rofl

[cinder pond]

I usually run Valentine as the British, simply because it’s fast, good fire rate, and it’s low to the ground

[analog stag]

Yeah.

[haughty pawn]

yeah

[analog stag]

The Valentine is a good tank.

[cinder pond]

A tiger’s nightmare is when a valentine gets rightup under its barrel and blasts away into its side

[analog stag]

I will see you guys later, I am going to play BFV.

[cinder pond]

See you my friend

[analog stag]

See you dude.

[solid hinge]

Valentine is good in bfv too

Also a nice spec tree

[little fjord]

I had the shrinking map on grand ops today

[amber notch]

“I had the shrinking map on grand ops today”

What is the shrinking map

Out of curiosity

[little fjord]

[solid hinge]

Final stand!

[little fjord]

I dunno, I assume it was that tiebreaker mode

Yeah final stand

[amber notch]

Why didn’t you just say final stand

[solid hinge]

Apparently final stand in Hannut has a tank in

[amber notch]

[little fjord]

Kinda cool... didn't last very long

[amber notch]

It better not.

[little fjord]

Fjelly

[solid hinge]

Cause final stand shows up so little no one knows what it's called

[amber notch]

Does it really have a tank on the map

[bronze grotto]

theres an empty croc in hannut day 4

[solid hinge]

^

rip to teams without assaults

[bronze grotto]

it was on conquest E

in the backyard

[little fjord]

😆

[amber notch]

How to make the gamemode that is so rare unbalanced in one step

[solid hinge]

isn't it wonderful?

also they appear to have buffed the AP mines

[little fjord]

🤔

[bronze grotto]

yum yum

[solid hinge]

They're 100 damage per mine now

[little fjord]

Ouch

[solid hinge]

And you can have 3 up at once

[errant solstice]

Damn

[solid hinge]

talk about easy kills

[errant solstice]

Good way to close off an area or slow someone down

[little fjord]

I wonder if you can still survive if you run through one at a full sprint

[bronze grotto]

mmm thats a whole house covered on arras

[errant solstice]

Maybe it was possible occasionally with claymores

[bronze grotto]

i just put them on downed enemies

[errant solstice]

You are both a scoundrel and a genuis my good sir

[bronze grotto]

also good insurance from teabagging

put it on myself when prone

[amber notch]

@solid hinge where is the AP mine buff?

I do not see it in the recent notes.

Unless I’ve over read it

[bronze grotto]

stealth buff?

[solid hinge]

It's not in the notes

Which is... irritating

[errant solstice]

Ghost patch

[amber notch]

But how do you know it’s bugged then

[solid hinge]

I've got multiple one mine kills

[amber notch]

That’s right, you’re a recon main

They could be low

[solid hinge]

I NEVER use mines on recon

It says +100 damage

[amber notch]

Happens pretty regularly

Wait

[solid hinge]

Also I've ran into a single mine and died

[amber notch]

It actually says 100

[solid hinge]

At max

Yeah

[errant solstice]

Wouldn't be first time a buff/nurf was left out

[amber notch]

....

[solid hinge]

[bronze grotto]

fuck i need to run it again on support

[errant solstice]

Bf4 it was common

[solid hinge]

Very useful on support now

[bronze grotto]

this week i took at mines instead

[solid hinge]

Can shut down multiple entrances single handedly

[bronze grotto]

ghetto c4 and tank buster tool

[solid hinge]

I usually take AT pistol if pushing and AP mines if defending

[errant solstice]

Person stuff

[bronze grotto]

just jihad behind tanks with 3 at mines and impact nade

[solid hinge]

I'll just play assault if I wanna go tank hunting

[amber notch]

So they unannounced a buff that is pretty major

Nice

[bronze grotto]

mmmmm

[zealous void]

What buff

Pls @ me lol

[haughty pawn]

wtf ap mines?the flying bettys ?usually it took 3 for a sure insta kill

[solid hinge]

They're one shot kills now

Or capable of it at least

[haughty pawn]

nice,but i hardly hit any,always shoot them when i see them

same with at mines

they have that glow,easy to spot

[solid hinge]

People rushing next to your tank,putting at mines 1m from you,you move you die but you didnt even touch them

[haughty pawn]

wtf lol ?

[solid hinge]

Danke Dice

It wasnt like this in bf1

[haughty pawn]

can you still shoot at mines ?

[solid hinge]

Yes

[haughty pawn]

maybe it was that ?

[bronze grotto]

lunchbox mines in bf1 lul

pita to place

[haughty pawn]

deploy them on the tank,shoo them

[bronze grotto]

impact nade

[solid hinge]

At mines hitbox is broken

You drive 1m from them you die

At mines are dodgy to shoot

[bronze grotto]

tfw the mines arent pressed by the tank tracks

but it blows up anyway

[solid hinge]

If they explode near you you shouldnt die

I plink them as sniper a lot and I have to shoot them like 3 times before it actually blows up

[bronze grotto]

pressure mines going boom on the belly without pressure

maybe the mines are more durable?

[solid hinge]

If they explode under you you should die

Weird hitboxes

[haughty pawn]

i always shot them with the sidearm

[amber notch]

[bronze grotto]

not hitbox thing maybe

[solid hinge]

Sometimes they blow in one

[haughty pawn]

but rarely use them anymore anyways

[solid hinge]

It's odd

I've never liked picking mines

[haughty pawn]

prefer the launcher

does good dmg,and i use it mostly for bringing down houses with campers

[solid hinge]

AP mines can at least shut doorways down but AT mines are just dump on an empty road and wait for your kill 15 minutes later

[haughty pawn]

do at mines stay when you die like ap do ?

[solid hinge]

I think so

Yes

Also

AP mine spam is insane

Every class but the assault has them

And thats dice being lazy to give us more gadgets

[haughty pawn]

hardly see any,but then on the other hand i always blow up buildings before i enter them !

[solid hinge]

what about the limpet charge from the storymode?

What about the rocket halftracks?

Flamethrower?

SP has more content than MP

[bronze grotto]

sp has americans

[haughty pawn]

shermans !

[solid hinge]

And tank customization

[charred heron]

SP has more skins for individual guns

[solid hinge]

[charred heron]

[solid hinge]

No damn gadgets is annoying

Medic gets smoke rifle or AP mines

[bronze grotto]

fliegerfaust when, as aa rocket gun

i want acid smoke for medic ffs!

What about 2 new reinforcements?

[bronze grotto]

gas chamond mk.2

[haughty pawn]

lol right,shouldn't they be here already ?

[solid hinge]

Where the fuck is rush

[haughty pawn]

smoke barragge and what was it ?

[solid hinge]

Where the fuck are boins

[haughty pawn]

rush is the 3 day of the new GO

[bronze grotto]

sector artillery reinforcement lel, probably just rush arty for cq

and smoke barrage

[solid hinge]

I'm waiting for the sector artillery to just be random artillery strikes like the current artillery

Or just a smol v1

And smoke barrage to just drop two smoke nades from the sky

[bronze grotto]

5k for a smoke nade to drop from the sky

lel

[solid hinge]

[haughty pawn]

2 ? Two?`how OP !

[bronze grotto]

v1 sized smoke plz

[ancient ocean]

Morning everybody.

[bronze grotto]

lasting 45 mins

[solid hinge]

Imagine battle of britain,germans have to protect the bombers while the brits try to destory them

Panzerstorm tank only...

Dice wtf

Its gonna take you 5 secs to make all these game modes

[ancient ocean]

Realistically an explosion from the v1/j-b2 would leave smoke for a while.

[bronze grotto]

[olive apex]

old ea and dice were good when ea didnt use overpriced dlcs

[idle breach]

Bfv deluxe for 200 bucks

[bronze grotto]

i cba to play bfv for the archer atm, i think im kinda burned out, might play something else rn tbh

[olive apex]

imma go play bf2

[idle breach]

Archer no worth it

[solid hinge]

It is

[idle breach]

No

It sucks

It drives backward

[solid hinge]

People are saying the extra archer rounds suck

[ancient ocean]

If you like having everything in the game it's worth it.

[little fjord]

You'll want the archer in case they buff it at least

[idle breach]

Whats the pount

[solid hinge]

@idle breach no it doesnt

Wtf

Did you use it?

[idle breach]

Archer without backward driving

[solid hinge]

Bruh moment.

[bronze grotto]

or maybe sucking and being a bad tanker isnt my thing

[solid hinge]

^

[idle breach]

Whats the point putting archer

In a game

[solid hinge]

Tank destroyer

Role

[idle breach]

There are many td made by allied

Name one special thing about archer

[little fjord]

It's a meh tank... which would be fine if it did a little more damage

[ancient ocean]

The Valentine already does REALLY well as a tank destroyer

[idle breach]

It goes backward. Thats all

And dice ruined it

[solid hinge]

Yea but archer was the easiet for the devs to build cuz it has the valentine body

end of story

[idle breach]

No backward archer is like tiger without 88mm

Or worse

[solid hinge]

Idk wth r you talking about

Whats wrong with having more tanks in the game

every side is gonna have around 7

[little fjord]

Yeah... I'm always happy about moar guns and tanks

[idle breach]

Hey weeo

Archer without backward position is just like

[little fjord]

I don't expect them all to be amazing

[solid hinge]

AA
Light tank
Medium tank
Heavy tank
Tank destroyer
Artillery tank

[ancient ocean]

Ya even if it's a shit gun I still want it
