From a bigger gun!
amber notch
isnt the kar 7.62
bronze grotto
tfw its easier to get a killstreak as the remote gunner for stug than as the tanker
amber notch
bronze grotto
7.92x57 iirc
jagged vector
7.92x57 colloquially known as 8mm Mauser
bronze grotto
just be the remote gun passenger
let the driver suffer lobbing potatoes and getting shot
solid hinge
tfw I have a k98 irl and its delicious
little fjord
I still say infinite ammo mg are the best parts of vehicles imho
bronze grotto
while you, as the remote gunner just farm with a mmg
tfw a stug reversed into the enemy tanks at spawn time
alone
solid hinge
he was making friends
jagged vector
oh no baby what is you doing
bronze grotto
ye but it better be good for blowing up infantry
jagged vector
Not at all
solid hinge
It has the same splash radius as upgraded Valentine gun
jagged vector
Unless you treat it like a big sniper rifle
solid hinge
It has massive damage to tanks even with default rounds though
bronze grotto
the 17PDr feels like pre patch trajectory potato thrower
jagged vector
Once you get a feel for the drop and the target it’s the moving much, you can totally bean infantry from afar
solid hinge
It's more like artillery than a designated tank destroyer
slender bramble
what you need to do is play like you're in World of Tanks :^)
jagged vector
Nice pipimi pfp
solid hinge
I like it!
amber notch
solid hinge
Archer gets more fun value than the stoog
jagged vector
I always liked TDs over traditional tanks so I’m liking the archer and stug
bronze grotto
is the tiger the best infantry farmer right now
jagged vector
Cos like, I don’t get into a tank to farm infantry
bronze grotto
apart from the wirbelwind
jagged vector
I use tanks to kill tanks and destroy buildings
slender bramble
the wirbelwind generates too much smoke from the impact to be effective against infantry tbh
jagged vector
If I wanna hurt infantry, I run infantry or spawn a plane
bronze grotto
i wanna try the churchill 95mm
postpatch 95mm is said to be an infantry blaster gun
jagged vector
It supposedly has the biggest blast radius besides the sturm’s 380
solid hinge
The stug doesn't actually feel like a TD to me
bronze grotto
do you chase tanks in tank vs tank
solid hinge
I think that's why I don't like it
bronze grotto
and what do you do after killing a tank do you retreat
bronze grotto
because the problem for me when im trying to play tank destroyer is usually i end up being blasted by assaults while im being tunnel visioned trying to lob shells at the enemy weakspot
jagged vector
If I’m killing tanks, i find a position, I keep killing tanks. If tanks start to kill me, I run away and start over
bronze grotto
during or after fighting the enemy tank, assaults show up to stop me
jagged vector
Unscope and 3p to look around you carefully in between tank kills
blow up the minimap* occasionally to see where the action is
solid hinge
Most upgraded tank guns have a 3 splash radius with 1.3 inner splash radius, the default panzer 4, tiger and GC have a 5 splash radius with around 1.8 inner splash radius and the howitzer has a 7.5 splash radius with 2.4 inner
bronze grotto
do you untunnel vision during tank vs tank shooting
jagged vector
Only if you feel like you’re in trouble
bronze grotto
do you start retreating if you take damage from another source that is not the tank you're fighting while being tunnel visioned
jagged vector
If they didn’t die in 4-5 shots, they’re being repaired
solid hinge
if i feel like there's danger nearby I'll swap to 3rd person real quick while I'm reloading
bronze grotto
like if you're trading blows with a tank and being scoped in, but you get a damage indicator from side or rear
wyd
jagged vector
Depends how bad the damage is
solid hinge
if i get hit by something that isn't the tank I'm fighting im probably fucked if i don't react immediately unless it's a hand grenade or something
jagged vector
Don’t wait til you’re at 30 health with busted tracks to run
bronze grotto
when's the best time to pop quick repair and/or field repair (the one with critical fix)
amber notch
solid hinge
usually i swap to 3rd person to determine if it's an assault that's close enough to sticky me, (if it is you're probably boned) then make adjustments based on that
I usually save quick repair for when I'm around half hp
jagged vector
Quick repair is best when you won’t regain more than you already lost
solid hinge
Field repair for when I need the critical that's busted
jagged vector
Field for when you’re about to retreat
jagged vector
And use smoke while moving or when you’re about to move
Don’t smoke and stand still
solid hinge
Stickies have the utility to be used against other sources too
And you can chuck em further than the mines
jagged vector
And on the topic of positioning, find a spot after cresting a hill. That way when you retreat back over it, they can’t hit you immediately
amber notch
LOL
icy sluice
And on his fucking twitter page he uses the Twitter Xbox Share feature ffs
icy sluice
But hey, 2500 for a tank is pretty... eh
It depends if at least one of the teams are decent
jagged vector
2500 for a tank is fair imo
icy sluice
Yeah
solid hinge
Paratrooper spawns are god awful
jagged vector
It cost more than that to upgrade it
solid hinge
That's why recon is useful in airborne
Get those beacons up
Yeah Recon is the best
icy sluice
Use beacons, use flares also.. you don't have to drop immediately
solid hinge
But I had to do my daily orders
So
Support and medic
After the first drop you generally never have to ride a plane again
slender bramble
and if you're defending, beacons and flares guide the artillery :^)
jagged vector
My trick in airborne panzerstorm is to steal the kettenkrads on C & D
And run around the A side to pick up a bomb/bomb carrier
wind pendant
own the forest and you own the map
solid hinge
My trick to Panzerstorm is to be on a team with functional brain cells
*own the deathtrap hotzone and you own the map

What’s the best sniper rifle for Scout and does it have a double zoom?
Cause that first sniper is shit
Lame scope
solid hinge
Comes down to personal choice usually
unique crater
A good scope
jagged vector
Depends on your preferred engagement range, really
The 3&6x scopes are virtually identical across the board
unique crater
Not close quarters like idiots in 1 and Battlefront II
slender bramble
what happened to the 10x scopes
unique crater
I’m trying to start using sniper
jagged vector
Literally like anything above 6x was unheard of in WWII

Psychological Warfare
solid hinge
Why do anti-tank rounds for rifles not do more damage to infantry
jagged vector
K bullets?
solid hinge
i feel like if it pierces armor it should shatter a guy like a watermelon
infantry aren't tanks duh /s
because its battlefield
Also the Gewehr 95 6x scope seems to be glitched in a constant state of unfocusing
yeah, K bullets
unique crater
Heh
jagged vector
A K bullet was just the same size bullet with a steel core
unique crater
They banned THAT word
jagged vector
It makes the same hole
solid hinge
white man btw
wouldn't a steel core bullet just "cleanly" go through someone since it doesn't expand as much?
jagged vector
Yeah, it’ll make a small hole in and a small hole out
solid hinge
Yeah so...technically it'd probably do less damage (but more damage depending on where you hit)
jagged vector
If anything, it should do less damage
solid hinge
yeah
best part is using a sniper and dealing 98 ish damage
really satisfying
It'd totally murderize with headshots though lol
98 damage becomes 100 damage
solid hinge
i think all headshots should be 100 damage. WW2 bullets would go through steel helmets like butter
wait
amber notch
solid hinge
oh spoiler isnt allowed

God I’m getting so fucking sick of this shit
if the girls had customizable hair and gear i mean, sure
there's a difference between customization and SJW and i'm not defending it
next battlefield should be set in the future imo
just saying if it sells skins

Are you defending SJWs?
No, battlefield shouldn't go to the future

@shrewd grove clever man
solid hinge
Tell you what you do, you put an impact explosive into a sock and soak it in motor oil
Jeep stuff.
jagged vector
Motor oil isn’t really sticky
slender bramble
and don't forget to play that meme nasheed while doing so :^)
jagged vector
You want to use red grease
slender bramble
or was that meme totally 2014 now
solid hinge
Well that's what they used in Saving Private Ryan
so i assume it's semi-accurate WW2 commando stuff
maybe it was red grease, not motor oil
jagged vector
It was grease on the sock though
solid hinge
Yeah
unique crater
The best ways to winning is making the enemy lose faith and feel bad for you.
solid hinge
They'd throw the sock at the tank and it'd work
jagged vector
It looks black because red grease doesn’t stay red long after being used
unique crater

probably not very good but it'd work

But especially domination
BfV BTW
Assault is fine in Bf1
I play BF3 and they're more toxic in 4
BFV is horrible
uneven sleet
I miss the fact that BF1's medic guns were self loading rifles/semi auto rifles
amber notch
BF3 assault is pure cheese

medic has a assault rifle in bf1 kinda

stick grenades got that aesthetic
WHY IS THERE NO TEAM BALANCING
uneven sleet
The team balancing isn't that good though
icy sluice
And it doesn't announce it's presence
solid hinge
In IRL terms though i don't know why stick grenades were replaced
I’m playing with the same fucksticks on my team who lost the last game
like i guess it's easier to throw a sphere?
theoretically a stick grenade still works
jagged vector
You can’t throw a sphere further than a stick
solid hinge
depends on the wind resistance
jagged vector
The stick with a weight at the end goes further
solid hinge
Then it shouldn't matter, but these days modern grenades are spheres
why lol
Clearly spherical explosives were deemed superior
or maybe they just didn't use stick grenades because german
what about square ones
or triangle ones
I mean...that's just unergonomic
lunar crow
the baseball sized is just the way to go
solid hinge
Simply put I like to think that a weighted stick is more ergonomic than a ball
if not simply because i'm a bad pitcher
but i'm alright at lobbing
God dammit
I hate my team
The tactic you'd use to lob a stick grenade over a trench is probably easier for me than effectively "pitching" an HE grenade, so...
maybe then it's just down to training?
or maybe the American soldiers played baseball
lol
jagged vector
The stick grenades took longer to prime, didn’t fragment as well as true frag grenades
But, due to their shape, they didn’t roll unpredictably
solid hinge
Implying you couldn't attatch a stick to a frag grenade
jagged vector
There’s no reason you couldn’t
They just didn’t really catch on, plus you couldn’t carry as many stick grenades as spherical ones
solid hinge
just put super glue on the grenade
and it wont roll
Well then i guess the 5 cents and 200 dollar retail price extra for a stick is ghey
so don't do it
Also how can you carry more spherical ones?
I mean, spherical ones are in a pouch but a bandolier could carry just as many sticks
jagged vector
A bag, or clipped onto gear typically
The stick grenade didn’t seem to have a “ring” or clip on it
solid hinge
Well i'm not questioning if a stick grenade was better or worse than a pineapple grenade, moreso i'm just curious how since really you could adapt the stick grenade design in the same ways we adapted the pineapple design
Who uses a stick grenade in 2019
i want square grenades
jagged vector
I’m afraid I couldn’t find a modern stick grenade
solid hinge
I find that surprising since the worst of complaints of both could simply be solved by detatching the stick from the fragmenting warhead
which is to say, the stick is tactical
and the fragmenting warhead is just standard HE
primal sage
What if we could have a detachable stick grenade?
Like the stick is just for the throwing assistance.
And the fuse causes it to detach mid flight.
jagged vector
If the weight & center of gravity changes mid flight, the trajectory will change
The only way to throw a traditional grenade like a stick grenade would be to use one of those tennis ball throwers
solid hinge
God damn the British are so shit now

Why are the British shit now

I really wish CA was like an amazing Coop mode with matchmaking
I get so tired of online sometimes
tbh split screen lol
primal sage
It was.
solid hinge
Seriously why can’t we have an AI conquest mode like the OG SW Battlefront games????
primal sage
The event goes as follows: The Germans were threatening to level the city with bombers if surrender was not given. The Allies, not wanting the city bombed any more than it already was, opened negotiations. The bombing was called off....or so it was SUPPOSED TO.
primal sage
Due to communications errors, the bombers did not receive proper stand down orders, and carried out the flattening mission. The Germans had one extra call sign available left if radio transmission failed. Red Flares. If Red Flares were popped, then it's a sign to NOT flatten the city.
The Bombers didn't listen too well.
unique crater
puts me in Twisted Steel again
solid hinge
the tanks need better hitboxes
because you can be getting shot at by a tank
and the shell clearly misses you
but you still take damage
unique crater
Tanks are a chore to kill and to operate
solid hinge
especially when you're trying to reverse
primal sage
I've also had moments where I hit a tank, or it hits me...and I don't even get a hit marker or damage marker.
I watch the shell disappear and 0 damage is caused.
This is BOTH sides of the coin. Me getting hit or them getting it.
jagged vector
I’ve experienced that plenty
bronze grotto
do you experience tank shells flying quite high past but its a hit
it looks like it went way over the tank but it hits with sound and damage and all
jagged vector
Yeah, I’ll be in 3P retreating and very clearly see a shell pass clean over my tank

Clean kill imo

all i did was ram into them
because most Tiger drivers are idiots who buy into the tigers myth
and since the shell comes out at the end of the barrel
the barrel was longer than my tank

ok
waxen ingot
non-tank player here, not entirely new to battlefield but i only played bf4 past its prime and now have bfv, which tanks do yall suggest?
solid hinge
that would make for a really nice porno
it depends on which side @waxen ingot
since both sides get different tanks
so you dont see a British person driving a Tiger I tank
like they did in WWI smh
waxen ingot
yeah, im not that new, but either honestly
bronze grotto
well tanks are faction specific in bf5
solid hinge
the Flakpanzer IV has high fire rate
icy sluice
Okay, what do you like doing in tanks?
solid hinge
yea but the tank would get the faction specific flag/symbol on it
waxen ingot
ok
bronze grotto
for brits i recommend valentine with 6 pounder and apcr rounds
solid hinge
the caproni's rudder decal changed depending on the faction
icy sluice
Valentine is a good all-rounded tank
bronze grotto
good for tank to tank
icy sluice
Panzer IV is also good for all-rounded
solid hinge
which is yall favorite map lol
bronze grotto
it should have a beefy splash i think
waxen ingot
i like being a pest and gunning around in the lightest allied tank rn (dont know the name)
icy sluice
Panzer 38(t) and Staghound are good for fast movement and are great against infantry, usually aren't that good against tanks but with good placement, can take down tigers
Favorite map is hard I'll be honest
waxen ingot
but also if i go against other tanks that gets torn to shreds
solid hinge
ngl there was plenty of good maps on launch
and i found an easter egg in arras by accident lol
bronze grotto
raptor can you tell me on the tiger's anti infantry effectiveness
icy sluice
I am gonna make a survey like tomorrow, I know I said I'll do one at the end but I think it makes sense to make a mid-chapter survey and then a post-chapter survey
It's got an LMG.
bronze grotto
how about the main gun tho
icy sluice
Also it can have AP-Rounds
Main Gun ain't that good against infantry from what I remember
bronze grotto
18 rounds too for storage
waxen ingot
another small question, do panzerfausts not do that much damage to tanks or am i missing a damage drop off or correct placement?
icy sluice
Archer can have like 30 rounds
bronze grotto
from what i hear after that patch on tank splash the tiger is pretty good in aoe
solid hinge
a dope detail i dont think enough people give credit for
is the fact that every map has its own music
So I’m looking ahead at this week’s challenges
icy sluice
@waxen ingot They do pretty good damage but the best place to hit is at the engine
solid hinge
I foresee a lot of ppl sitting next to ammo boxes and throwing hand grenades
and the aerodrome round start theme definitely belongs in a porno
waxen ingot
i get like 18-30 max
icy sluice
Here's Infantry vs Tank combat summarized
icy sluice
Yeah that
solid hinge
Infantry 
icy sluice
Hit to turret to disable it, it will make the tank much harder for it to aim and hit you. Hit the engine so it's movement is limited and goes slowly. Hit the Tracks and it will make it hard to move and turn.
solid hinge
i would like to bust a nut to a riley reid porno with bf1 tsnp end round theme playing
icy sluice
Hitting the engine does take the most damage
solid hinge
You need to stop @solid hinge
waxen ingot
this might seem dumb but where is the engine? or more exactly can i see it?
solid hinge
nein
icy sluice
Most tanks have their engine in the very back of the tank
waxen ingot
i got the tracks and turret
icy sluice
The Valentine Archer has the engine in the front
waxen ingot
is it just trial and error?
bronze grotto
does the engine deck and the butt count as the same part
solid hinge
wouldn't a hit to the back of the Archer be a one shot in terms or "realism"
bronze grotto
for placing shots
icy sluice
Nope, back of the Archer is not a good place to fire rockets into
waxen ingot
for realism, not exactly but pretty close depending on the plating
primal sage
Can we get one of these for the Churchill Gun Carrier?
It seems no matter where I hit the thing, I can't hit a critical spot.
solid hinge
hmm
bronze grotto
i think the face of turretless tanks arent crit spots
but you can just hit the tracks
waxen ingot
for an explosive like the panzerfaust, hitting the engine might not pierce and destroy the engine like a tank cartridge would, but break enough that it would be in crap shape
icy sluice
Usually, as an Assault, I aim for the turret
waxen ingot
it depends on the plating on the tank and amount of explosive/direction of explosion whether it would tear apart the tank in real life
icy sluice
If the tank can do a full 360 turn, the turret is usually the first thing you wanna disable and circle the tank afterwards, it should make it difficult for the tanker to hit you
waxen ingot
wait, that means with the new stug aim for the tracks first?
icy sluice
Yeah, as it will make it harder for it to back up and turn to try to hit you
Never approach a tank in a straight line towards it, try circling it
solid hinge
hmm
icy sluice
Also, you can't really solo-assault most tanks unless you sneakily use AT-Mines
You can do quite a lot of damage but if it's at 100 health then you most likely won't solo it
waxen ingot
yeah, kinda figured that out after getting blasted so.... many.... times while trying to solo
icy sluice
You were able to do that easily in Battlefield 1, not so much so here
waxen ingot
how much damage does the AV launcher from the support do to tanks?
icy sluice
AV Launcher?
solid hinge
icy sluice
Oh you mean AT-Grenade Launcher
Usually not much, I always use it on fortifications
It does like 10-15 damage
soft storm
AV Launcher, launchers AV club members
solid hinge
I can’t believe the amount of tankers who abandon their tanks
what about the people that dont repair the damned resupply station
I took a Panzer IV at 10 health from the middle of the battlefield as a medic and repaired it then took it home cuz everyone just thought it was empty
Ppl who blow up the resupply station should be banned
i blow the enemy's resupply station
Well that’s fine
to make sure they dont repair the tank
but when your teammate does it
icy sluice
One thing that was funny is that there was an empty Valentine in the middle of the street, I am a German... and I get in, start getting shot but King Tiger over here comes in and says "fuck you brit"

But I have teammates who blow up our own resupply station
It’s like seriously wtf are you here for
solid hinge
Yeah god dammit
the operation on Rotterdam
is so annoying
Bannable offense plz dice
charred heron
"Hurr, i don't get a tank, so fuck the tankers"
waxen ingot
god forbid the assault next to me helps me with a tank instead of trying to snipe a recon with the panzerfaust
solid hinge
because once you take the sector, the resupply station is behind the edge of the map
like
@charred heron that’s exactly their thought process and it’s cancerous
primal sage
When BFV first came out, soloing a tank was stupid easy.
2 Panzerfausts and you're done.
I'm SO GLAD that's over.
solid hinge
also they need to fix the AI in CA
because i see a colonel go through a set a stairs and a wall
Jjhonn best bf player ever👀
Lmao
Isn’t he a cheater

2 PAIT from the back can still easily can a medium/light tank
solid hinge
No

yeah he uses ghost players to take up the other teams space and then when he dies you can see they move but when jjhonn is moving they are AFK
weak violet
Although i have been playing as a tank gunner for the tigers, funny to see the amount of assualts that run straight at the tiger thinking its easy kill
Killed about 15 people in a match by doing this
Also if you are gonna be a gunner for a tank, switch to support with the MMG combat role
solid hinge
Im mnk🙄
weak violet
As suppressing the enemy in a tank still makes them spotted
solid hinge
tbh the rockets on the German plane (forgot name) is useful
weak violet
Although in pazer storm the archer is extremely annoying to verse, as its sniping ability cannot be matched
Although hitting it 2 times will make all of them ran away
primal sage
What about by long barrel StuG?
weak violet
Meh idk
icy sluice
Making the survey :p
unique crater
Hannut is a great map
solid hinge
Hannut
solid hinge
i found an easter egg on that map lol
unique crater
On Germans, watching 3 panzers and 2 Halftracks go across the fields, absolute blitz
vague hollow
nah on hannut when you can get like 7 tigers and they all lineup like a firing squad and mow down a town
solid hinge
what is hannut
No bf1 is better
i uninstalled BF1 to make room for BFV
i needed a new game to play anyways
technically the CGC is a better sniper than the archer
half wolf
lmao what the fuck is it with people intentionally giving the other team tanks
solid hinge
I've been seeing people bail on like 70%
primal sage
I was playing Panzer Conquest, and people were ACTUALLY moving PAK40's into good positions and USING them.
solid hinge
Not sure what their problem is
primal sage
I mean I was one of them but I wasn't THE ONLY ONE.
solid hinge
oh
primal sage
The British Field Gun is the 6 Pounder.
solid hinge
arent they the same thing in the game though
jagged vector
I brought one over with a kubelwagen
solid hinge
or am i just blind
primal sage
Techincally yes, but they look different.
jagged vector
And somebody hopped in right away
primal sage
They function the same but differ in looks.
jagged vector
So I brought a second one, we had a pak40 battery
solid hinge
you ever just tbag for no reason and a teammate does it with you
primal sage
I brought one into position, someone IMMEDIATELY got in it, then left due to a sniper bullet I didn't see, then I got in, left because the same sniper MISSED AGAIN, then a THIRD guy got in and used it until he got bored.
I then re-repositioned the PAK even closer and better to the objective.
Okay, about the PAK 40 and 6 Pounder, the difference visually is the PAK is Silver, and has a very angular, recognizable shield, while the 6 Pounder is Green and has just a single, flat, but wavy shield.
half wolf
just had a match where highest scorer on our team had sub-1000 points
-.-
why
just why
primal sage
Wait? SUB-1000?
half wolf
why are teams balanced so fucking badly
primal sage
Like...NEGATIVE?
half wolf
Frontlines match
no not negative
everyone just had scores below 1000
other team top player was 7500
Me (top player on our team) had a lower score than the worst player on theirs
primal sage
But let me guess, if you played you easily made it top scoring player on your team? I've hat matches like that.
half wolf
Nah I wasn't easily top scorer
I was like 870, rest of my squad was 800s/700s
but it was a stomp
every game on this server has been a stomp for the last 2 hours
but its the only active frontlines server I can see
There's only so much you can do when you're only a mediocre player at best, but literally the rest of your team, a third of the players have 0 kills, and only 1 other person actually played the objective.
solid hinge
theres matches where you're doing good
make it into the top 5 of your team
then the next match
you're like horrible
solid hinge
Apparently in the files the pak40 and 6 pounder actually have different stats
why are you looking in the files smh
6 pounder almost has double velocity but pak40 has a significantly higher blast radius
Cause I wanna know what the vehicle specs actually do cause they don't tell us the stats in the actual game
true
like did you know the apds rounds for the archer have significantly less damage and are almost absolutely not worth taking?
hmm
median skiff
I'm not sure they were exported properly when people were first looking at those.
The number seems... off.
It may be right, but my gut says something was up with that pull.
solid hinge
I would have assumed from the description where it says "boosts impact damage in exchange for blast radius" that it would actually boost the damage, but apparently not
I've seen people using them and doing very little damage
I thought it must be wrong as well but it seems to be correct
solid hinge
Which like.. makes me wonder if a dev forgot a 0 on the end or something
Yeah!
has anyone ever sniped a pilot in a plane in BFV?
I'm not sure it's possible
because someone's done it in every BF game
I don't seem to ever take pilot damage in planes
i think i have before
idk
how do i look up BF1 stats
No idea
Someone sent me a spreadsheet for bfv
median skiff
^ Spreadsheet was datamined from game files.
It's the same way people got all the stats on things like weapon bullet velocity. 😃
jagged vector
I tried to post link to the spreadsheet but I’m not allowed
weak violet
Just had the best game of rush ever
The teams were so evenly matched it was great, every single round was tense
solid hinge
Okay, real shit whoever thought it was a good idea to put a gun emplacement behind the attackers spawn was an idiot
On the new grand operation
weak violet
It was always us just barely getting the sector, or them just backslapping the objective and us just rushing toward it
@solid hinge What do you mean Gun emplacement behind the spawn
coarse thunder
Whoops wrong emoji
weak violet
You know tanks can pull those guns into the battlefield
So the attacks can have a AT gun that they can use
solid hinge
It's not fucking funny, one dude raped an entire team on the first objective, 70+ kills and 2 deaths
And I was on his team, worst match ever
weak violet
What do you mean, did a defender or attacker was on it?
solid hinge
Defender
I want to see a top squad w/ 0 kills overall
Spot assists
Revived
Resupplies
That’s all
weak violet
I have gotten most valuable player simply by spamming flares
solid hinge
I’ve done that with revives lol
weak violet
Got 20 thousand points and the guy under me had 31 kills
solid hinge
It’s hilarious
weak violet
Had 1 kill that round and 2 deaths
solid hinge
Lamp
Lmao
Dev team needs to rethink the mapping this grand operation for certain
Cause that shit was rediculous
weak violet
Was it a AT gun or a AA gun
solid hinge
At, pounder 6
Literally just sprayed the hillside the entire match and nobody could stop him, piats and all
Nobody fuckin knew that existed over there I'm sure, I was surprised to see him so far out
jagged vector
If the 6 pounder can hit you, any of the attacking tanks should be able to hit it
solid hinge
Then the scoreboard came up and I just can't disarm an objective if none of them get close to being armed and I'm not even seeing enemies to kill to keep me entertained
Course, it was a dude in a clan, fuckin abusers
Of course*
Bf5 is just a reskin of bf1
icy sluice
So, my survey ain't finished, but would anyone like to see it so far?
half wolf
FFS a tanker on the other team is going 127-0
Havent seen anyone else even acknowledge his existence. Team full of fucking assaults and not one realizes the AT part of PIAT stands for "Anti-Tank"
weak violet
@half wolf What tank was he using?
half wolf
Valentine. it's totally reasonable for him to be racking up such an absurd killstreak given the fact that I've been chasing this motherfucker all match, and I have not seen anyone else on our team deal a single fucking point of damage on this dude
weak violet
Damn, although i thought it was the tank destroyer dudes, those guys have so much range
half wolf
Nah, hes just rolling around with a squad of supports backing him up.
Legit the only time I have ever seen supports repairing.
weak violet
In new rush mode it only takes 1 archer to stop most tankers from pushing
@half wolf Well that explains it he had a squad to back em up
Or they could have been doing the challenges
Idk
half wolf
Oh yeah totally. Just super frustrating that literally nobody else in our team was trying to take him out
We had freaking 21 assaults, 8 snipers, 2 supports, and 1 medic on our team
21 assaults
not one of them tried to nuke this guy
icy sluice
Anyone wanna look at the survey so far? 
half wolf
Sure

Bf5 is just Bf1 but ammo nerf

I like that the person who responded says the AG M/42 is overpowered because... of it's upgrades.

So yeah it's fixed
solid hinge
did they add a disable censor option atleast
shrewd grove
Also as much as I loved BF1 it was unbalanced as fuck
Not yet, but you never really notice it much unless people rage in chat
BF1 was the first BF game to actually make me angry when I played it lol
shrewd grove
Personally it made the game feel incredibly slow
shrewd grove
I just went back and played a few other BF games
And it really slows shit down
When you're walking somewhere and get shot a few times
Then stay behind cover for like a minute
shrewd grove
Same
primal sage
You know what's funny? I love how in BFV, people casually remark about respawning in game.
Literally materializes out of nowhere.
"'Ello ol' chum!"
solid hinge
I'm just wondering if BF will actually run under WINE, last I checked Origin had problems but the game itself didn't.
ionic thorn
why tf do the defenders get a field gun on panzer grand ops lmao
primal sage
...
Was that even english?
I have no idea what you just asked at all.
Can ANYONE translate for me?
ionic thorn
Yes I meant why
ionic thorn
Not in the grand ops, there aren't any vehicles
shrewd grove
Which part of grand ops though
ionic thorn
First
shrewd grove
Airborne or breakthrough
It's probably just for killing people
That's what I use it for

Yeah you grab that one bomb and get yeeted lmao

I mean
So apparently the M1911 in Battlefield 3 is behind the veteran rewards (which I am, kinda, pretty much)
so i played 3, 4, and 1, and also Bad Company at one time
but i guess i don't have the rewards for 3 because i haven't played older games? (Bad Company was on a now-defunct Origin account thing)
(old email and password i don't remember)
shrewd grove
Do you mean that suppressed M1911
solid hinge
I mean, iirc normal, surpressed and like, a tactical one of some kind
but yes
(i looked it up lol)
shrewd grove
I got that in BF3 just for having a little paper sheet that came along with my copy
This was a long time ago on Xbox 360 though
shrewd grove
Rip
solid hinge
I'm trying to get BF1 running under WINE now, wish me luck
it's apparently the Origin client, not the game, that doesn't run
The way you get the 1911 in BF3 is either as a veteran reward tied to Battlelog or the EA Gun Club (which is now shut down), according to the wikia. Anyway, with all that said and done
Thinking of picking up Bad Company 2, also thinking of nabbing Bad Company 2 Vietnam
(both of which, or at least one of which are apparently super low playerbase or smth)
(but i know i'd like both)
shrewd grove
I didn't even really know the EA gun club was a thing at the time
solid hinge
Worth in 2019?
BC2 has 1-2 full servers 24/7 iirc
Ah, and Vietnam?
only worth if you can play with 30 friends though
no clue
I played BC2 waaay back when, but like
didn't get to play the Vietnam expansion
I'd like to but i'm concerned it went the way of Hardline (either that or it didn't and all the players just moved to Rising Storm)
(because, yknow, that's out now i guess)
I loved Hardline
shame it's fucking dead
literally <100 players on PC
not even 1000
I feel like i'd enjoy Hardline a lot because i like the dynamic of like
police versus criminal type stuff
but yeah, dead game
Sub-milspec tactical units aren't as touched upon, sadly
Arguably i'd also complain in the direction of Rockstar Games on this because there's a ton of Mafia/Gangster/Crime games out there
but there's only ever LA Noire to counter them
Rockstar & 2k are garbage.
ivory geyser
ok
solid hinge
i mean...I liked Mafia 2
Was Mafia 2k?
Mafia 3 was meh
(yes, iirc)
Mafia 1 was a classic, Mafia 2 was a classic
Mafia 3 was garbage and is.
and Mafia 3 was the magical reboot that downgraded a bunch and...yeah
your complaints about 3 probably aren't held by 2 and 1
(i'd reccomend them)
I've played 1 & 2 for a limited amount of time
came aacross porn in the first 5 minutes in 2
