lmao dudes name is crapstain

i cant type that in chat

[pale rain]

lol

[fierce tusk]

anyone else play bf 1 still? kinda dope

hehe

[solid hinge]

I still play it

A lot of people still probably play it

[solemn wedge]

I do

[strong parrot]

fucking worthless ass hamada team

lose by 132 but at no point was the enemy team in trouble of losing the match...

fucking morons cant even hold more than 2 caps for half the team

[solid hinge]

I know that feel bro

[strong parrot]

dude on the enemy team though trying to say I suck...because im only top of the team by a couple thousand score

sub 500 spm player

[stoic breach]

[strong parrot]

when the trash tries to call you trash 😔

also this next fg mastery..fucking prone kills...honestly why dice

do you even know wtf the fg is used as ...an assault rifle

[stoic breach]

I cant be assed doing mastery, seriously not worth it to me

I've only done Drilling mastery

[graceful prairie]

i got gold commando carbine

actually was pretty easy

[stoic breach]

Is there a one shot kill when you use it?

[icy sluice]

Close Quarters Headshot

30m

[stoic breach]

Headshot

Alright

[graceful prairie]

yeah its one like 15 kills in 30m and then 15 kills beyond 30 m

idk if its headshots tbh

[stoic breach]

I've been trying to figure out if it was a OHK or a OHSK

[graceful prairie]

just aim for the head all the time with the cc its useless otherwise

[stoic breach]

Yeah I've got it at level 6 right now

[solid hinge]

I got a glitch,

Whenever I do something for my assignments, they don’t show up.

And they also showed back up saying I didn’t do it even though I have the gear saying I did.

[graceful prairie]

prolly a server issue

[median atlas]

I found a missing texture at arras at point C

[sonic rampart]

Kill 30 enemies with the Ls/26..

What about no...

[shrewd grove]

That's been in the game for months but for some reason still hasn't been fixed @median atlas

It's kill/suppress 30, I did it in one game of breakthrough @sonic rampart

[sonic rampart]

Ye but I dont like the gun lmao

[shrewd grove]

Bad taste

[strong parrot]

you dont like more generic bland guns?!

[sonic rampart]

Havent really tried it tho

[solid hinge]

3 times as many deaths than kills 😉

Fucking piats

1000 xp every hour because I keep leaving matches

WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK

MY TIGER WAS DESTROYED BY A VALENTINE AA

FUCKING BS

clearly you were not there for the weeks after Panzerstorm was released 😄

I .. well ... viva la massequre

but wasn't just valentine AA, the staghound with the rockets was also very OP

its way better now

I'm so thick in the head

[trim token]

Why is firestorm so cancer now since criterion handed it over?

[solid hinge]

I've joined 20 frontlines matches why am I not winning in any of them

[trim token]

-Shot though walls
-regions are mixed so gunplay sucks balls
So on

Also I keep getting a glitch where I hit the ground after I deploy my parachute and die to fall damage?

Like wut

[sonic rampart]

You can shoot through walls because its wood

[green elm]

shooting through wood should be a thing

[trim token]

When did I say wood?

Shootings me though vehicles lockup’s for example

I have a video of a guy shooting me through the roof of one of the vehicles lockups

[midnight nimbus]

@solid hinge remember when light tanks were good? I member

but it is pretty funny 2 shotting light tanks with Tiger AP rounds

[trim token]

Halvoy

[stoic breach]

Flashbang through the door

[trim token]

.. the like 4m thick concrete roof that is covered by 8m of mud

[strong parrot]

someone shot through this?

[trim token]

Exactly my point

[green elm]

how could he even have known to shoot

[trim token]

Let me upload it to my OneDrive using my brilliant WiFi, this gonna take ages

[green elm]

that’s wack

[turbid prairie]

Elite Sets on Tuesday sweet

can't wait

[trim token]

I’ll try

Exporting Xbox clips be difficult

[strong parrot]

isnt there a site for directly uploading xbox clips?

from the console or something

[trim token]

No

Sadly

[midnight nimbus]

I put all my clips on streamable

[stoic breach]

@strong parrot It's xboxdvr

All clips can be viewed on that site

[dusky saffron]

@solid hinge didn't see your question earlier but around 260

[trim token]

Why do the tiny smg bullets do more damage then massive mg and rifle bullets in some cases

[solid hinge]

Faster bullet firing thing sometimes @trim token

@dusky saffron how the hell do you do it

to catch up to those tags I'd have to quintuple my melee output and I'm already top 0.4% for them

@trim token I dont think the smgs ever do more damage than any other automatic

Unless you get a headshot and they get a body

@midnight nimbus swapping tank shells takes more time than an ordinary reload right?

[trim token]

Well, if that’s the case dice needs to fix the net code, again..

[solid hinge]

The individual bullets dont do more, but they can shoot much faster sometimes

What happened?

[dusky saffron]

@solid hinge you gotta be a fast thinker

😔

plus I calculate the amount of hp someone has for the instakill

[solid hinge]

How do you get close enough to even DO it

Most of my gameplay is spent maximising melee opportunities!

Theres always groups of multiple people

[midnight nimbus]

@solid hinge yeah

shell swap is slow af

[solid hinge]

I wish they'd change that

[midnight nimbus]

yeah, it'd make tanking more interesting

but it also solidifies the meta tanks

Tiger and Mk8 would be even more of a top pick

[dusky saffron]

Well

getting close to do it

is mainly situational

but the thing is you gotta sometimes put yourselves in those situations

[solid hinge]

All the best tanks bar archer have extra shells as a main spec anyway

alt I spend 90% of my time bayonetting into groups of five people

[dusky saffron]

🤷

I don't experiences the same problems when it comes to bayonetting

[solid hinge]

[dusky saffron]

it's probably a console feature

[strong parrot]

console features

[dusky saffron]

:^)

[solid hinge]

Lots of them are suicide rushes so I could cut down on that

but melee taking two hits 80% of the time is a fucking pain

[dusky saffron]

One thing you'll notice is that my kd isn't impacted by my melee escapades

[strong parrot]

imagine trying to boost a dog tag number instead of just going to kills 😔

[dusky saffron]

blindly running into people and dying is a good time waster

might as well be playing the "grey screen simulator"

[strong parrot]

to kills? for kills?

[solid hinge]

It refreshes my flare!

[dusky saffron]

🤷

[solid hinge]

purely strats

[dusky saffron]

nice refresh

[strong parrot]

my fucking hamada conq match earlier was so bad..spawn die spawn die

always enemies everywhere yet we only have 2 caps

[solid hinge]

when you strike me down I shall become more powerful than you can ever imagine

spawns behind you with flare

[strong parrot]

at one point I spawn on a squad mate over at the E point..start running and 2 seconds later one of those brit transport mini tanks MGs me in the back

literally what

[proven quartz]

What's with people being invisible

[solid hinge]

Something about a certain uniform

[proven quartz]

Oh

[hushed mesa]

I think the recent uniforms for the axis faction, the common ones, have problems with peoples legs going invisible or their body going fully invisible.

[proven quartz]

That's kind of dumb

[vast apex]

a walking knife

[shrewd grove]

I like the LS/26 so much

I went RLLL and put an AA sight on it and now I never have to worry about recoil

Even though I went hipfire specs

[strong parrot]

you went LL ..I thought the master said to just go full right side

[slate carbon]

n00b question, how do i switch teams?

[shrewd grove]

You don't

[slate carbon]

what

no, im switching teams.

[shrewd grove]

They removed team swapping for obvious reasons

[slate carbon]

so if my friend gets onto the enemy team were fricked?

[shrewd grove]

Literally just join a squad together

Then it won't happen

I'm fine with the removal of team swapping if the auto balance actually worked

[slate carbon]

well i will now that i know about this garbage

[solid hinge]

I admire your tenacity to team swap even though its literally not a feature

[green elm]

the lack of teamswitching is kind of sad sometimes

[slate carbon]

thank u

[green elm]

3v24 games

[slate carbon]

i am very determined to switch

[green elm]

[shrewd grove]

That's what I mean, I'd be okay with it if the balancing actually worked

Other than that I love that you can't get abandoned anymore by babies who can't stand their win rate falling

[slate carbon]

didnt they remove team balancing all together?

[shrewd grove]

No

[solid hinge]

i think it's supposed to be there

[shrewd grove]

It just doesn't work sometimes

[green elm]

i thought team balancing was just very screwed

[solid hinge]

I dont think it works

Wait
We have auto balance in BFV ?

[shrewd grove]

Most of the time it doesn't

[slate carbon]

hmm, i never see it pop up "youve been assigned to ____ based on skill"

[shrewd grove]

But it's there

It mostly happens between matches

[solid hinge]

I've left 10 vs 30 matches and been placed back in it on the other side

[slate carbon]

when most people quit the lobby lol

[solid hinge]

So now its 9 vs 31

[slate carbon]

totally makes sense dice

[strong parrot]

just join the same lobby with multiple accounts lmao

[solid hinge]

With me on the 31 side

[strong parrot]

then you can always team switch to the winning side

[slate carbon]

of course!!!

why didnt i think of this my god

[solid hinge]

I dont understand why no team switch

[green elm]

10v30 is just john wick mode

[slate carbon]

cause team stacking

but balancing was supposed to fix that

[solid hinge]

It is INCREDIBLY demoralizing when you're solo defending a point and you pop a flare and you get +135 enemy spotted

[slate carbon]

which is also aids

[vast apex]

i don't understand why they have a bipod knife in bf4 but no knife with a grip

[slate carbon]

also when youre support and youve thrown at least 50 bags only to get 300 points

[solid hinge]

the pouches are a lot better at getting score than the boxes

I wish theyd put boxes on the minimap

[strong parrot]

or just made it fucking auto regeneration

[solid hinge]

Boxes as auto regen would make pouches utterly useless

Throw a box and you've pouched everyone around you

And the bonus gadget refill

[strong parrot]

nah

pouch range would be larger than the box

and then the regeneration time for ammo could be adjusted

[shrewd grove]

boxes

[solid hinge]

When a support throws a pouch at me I feel NOTHING

[strong parrot]

no wonder my support spm is now just over my recon..because i was abusing the FG in grind

and using pouches

because you never shoot youre always trying to stab

like some fucking chucky doll

[green elm]

remember to always thank

[shrewd grove]

Imagine not giving yourself unlimited ammo anytime you want because you have to wait for a cool down lmao

[outer oxide]

So the armory is updated tomorrow, but elites are Thursday’s?

[solid hinge]

You dont run out of ammo when you take it from corpses!

[strong parrot]

you cant run out of ammo between crate CDs though

unless you use an FG

and mag dump...

[shrewd grove]

Exactly

[solid hinge]

And you certainly don't run out of ammo before crate cools down

[strong parrot]

ask me how I know

[vast apex]

battlefield 4:
why is there no glitches
battlefield 5:
i got stuck in a enterable building

[green elm]

can’t grab from corpses if you sit away from the action

[strong parrot]

tfw i lost point blank earlier to a ribeye with my FG

[solid hinge]

If you're sitting away from the action then the crate helps!

[strong parrot]

like..fuck off how did I not lay into your chest before you killed me

[solid hinge]

you got ribbed

assault bipod wins

dominance established

[strong parrot]

ribbed for pleasure? i think not

[green elm]

point blank with fg is a yikes

[solid hinge]

oh god my legs

[vast apex]

legs commit non existant

[solid hinge]

I did like 4 squats yesterday and my legs havent let me forget it all day todsy

[strong parrot]

.....

[solid hinge]

Man wtf

[strong parrot]

what kind of lightweight are you

[solid hinge]

I look more like a skeleton than a skeleton does

What kind of western spy are you

[strong parrot]

get a burger...also #battlefield-legacy-titles memes

[solid hinge]

My legs feel like a thousand bayonets

[strong parrot]

utterly useless?

[shrewd grove]

Ribbed for BS deaths

[solid hinge]

You take that back!!

[strong parrot]

nah im good

[vast apex]

my legs are strong then my arms

[solid hinge]

I've been bayonetted more than I've had games of last stand

[vast apex]

stronger wtf

[solid hinge]

Am I the only one that uses the bayonet on every weapon if I get the chanse ?

[vast apex]

anyways back on topic im bad at sniping

[green elm]

bayonets are great

[carmine wyvern]

How do you activate last stand

TELL ME

[strong parrot]

RNG through a GO

[carmine wyvern]

Nowwwwwww

[solid hinge]

Play grand ops a billion times and pray the last day is a draw

[vast apex]

can we have a baseball bat with a bayonet on it

[solid hinge]

I've been bayonetted twice and had last stand once

[strong parrot]

also in a last stand just play medic

[solid hinge]

[carmine wyvern]

@strong parrot NoYu

[strong parrot]

cant lose a no respawn mode if you constantly revive

[shrewd grove]

@carmine wyvern it has to be a tie on the last day of grand ops

[strong parrot]

why am I being pinged by the riff raff

[carmine wyvern]

@shrewd grove thanks

[green elm]

i’ve been bayoneted like 5 times in one match

[solid hinge]

I did that and my entire team ran off in different directions

[trim token]

Can we change #general to #weeb-Chat?

[solid hinge]

[carmine wyvern]

@green elm probably by me

[solid hinge]

^

You dont know how many bayonet kills I had in one match

[vast apex]

I've been bayonetted 0 times but bayonetted others about 10 times

[green elm]

it was horrible, i was sniping and then they walk up to me and just stab me!!

[solid hinge]

that's the best part of bayonet

They being the enemy ? @green elm

when you meet another sniper

and they swap to revolver to kill you, but the charge is faster

[green elm]

yeah

[vast apex]

tanks are gods

[solid hinge]

• moans in pleasure *

[trim token]

Fail

[solid hinge]

keine gnades in pleasure

[vast apex]

pulls out anti tank rifle
Goodbye light tank

[hoary creek]

Which is more active in Asia? Bfv or 4?

[green elm]

bfv DEFINITELY

there’s one, maybe two active servers on bf4 that aren’t 24/7 locker

[hoary creek]

It seems FIRESTORM is dead in asia

[solid hinge]

I've had my luckiest grenade throw today.
I threw one at two enemys,killed one with my pistol and the other one with my nade.I forgot I had that grenade thrown.

[slate carbon]

very disappointed at dice for listing these already existing game modes as limited time things

can we get something like air dom, or tank sup in stead?

[solid hinge]

that would show everyone how buggy tanks are and dodgy planes are currently

[green elm]

but if everyone’s dodgy...

[ivory schooner]

God damn, my game crashed to hard even my neighbor felt it

[solid hinge]

If everyone's dodgy then reddit explodes

[green elm]

implying the battlefield reddit isn’t in a state of constant explosion

[formal valve]

The battlefield reddit is a wretched hive of scum and villainy

[slate carbon]

the battlefield discord is a wretched hive of scum and villany

[formal valve]

Ouch

[solid hinge]

Battlefield is a wretched hive of scum and villainy

[slate carbon]

you know you spelt misfire wrong right?

who is miss fire?

is she nice?

[formal valve]

A cesspool of degenerates

Miss flakfire

[trim token]

So we get new combined arms missions on Tuesday, right?

[formal valve]

Idk

Whenever the new update comes

[shrewd grove]

I think it's May 2nd

[slate carbon]

this is the first ive heard of anyone being excited for more combined arms

its just the same shallow missions im sure

[solid hinge]

It adds matchmaking

That might give it SOMETHING

[slate carbon]

ooooh ok

[trim token]

I’m not excited

[formal valve]

The Cc is glitched

[trim token]

I JUST WANT ONE WITH OBJECTIVE AREAS FOR REASONS

[formal valve]

You can get basically infinite CC from it

[trim token]

You know why 😉

[solid hinge]

Sneaker!

[formal valve]

Dude the objective area ones are so easy

[trim token]

20 headshots in a round as scout?

[formal valve]

Yes

[shrewd grove]

Yeah but it's effort we don't want to put in

[slate carbon]

theyre all easy

[formal valve]

Easy

[trim token]

Or 10 in a life

[formal valve]

Yes

If your skilled enough

[slate carbon]

its the easiest 3000 per mission ive ever made

[formal valve]

That’s what they seem meant to do

Test your ability

[trim token]

I always get up to 19

[solid hinge]

lots of them are reliant on outside factors

[trim token]

So I gave up

[solid hinge]

like how long the rounds are

if you do too well the round ends

[green elm]

and how bad your opponents are

[formal valve]

Play frontlines for it

[solid hinge]

and you fail it

[trim token]

Plus everytime I try one my team loses every flag

[solid hinge]

That doesn't seem like a test of skill to me

[formal valve]

Hey i got the MG34 gold and in return I lost most of what sanity I still had

[solid hinge]

If you're actively encouraged to not win to finish an assignment, it's a shitty assignment

[formal valve]

Those missions were designed for campers

[trim token]

When you have the gold ap mine dogtag

[formal valve]

[slate carbon]

the mg mmgs are amazing

[formal valve]

I use MMGs more offensively

[solid hinge]

Gold ap mines is EVIL

[slate carbon]

idk how everyone finds is so difficult to find a good place to set up

[green elm]

hold up

gold ap mines

why

[formal valve]

Wait what

Nani

[trim token]

GOLD dogtag for ap mine kills

[formal valve]

[trim token]

You get it for like 800 kills with them

Whoever has it is a prick and I hate you

[slate carbon]

i wish pings were for everyone. just watched at least 6 people run into a room and all get killed by the same corner camper

[formal valve]

My friend levels a house when ever I ping it cuz he uses the rockets on the spitfire

[solid hinge]

the ol' mass rush tactic

[formal valve]

Like he levels the bitch

[trim token]

Since this weeks set of challenges assignments don’t work correctly..

[solid hinge]

The rockets on fighters are pretty solid

If I had reliable ground support I'd take them

If you're blind firing, flares are more useful imo

[midnight nimbus]

whoever balanced Aerodrome BT legit needs to be fired

[slate carbon]

why can i no longer damage enemy tanks with repair tool?

[midnight nimbus]

winning when you're british is just stupidly easy

[swift condor]

Too right

[solid hinge]

aerodrome BT is biased to brits to make up for conquest being biased to germans

[swift condor]

Unless you have a squad of German assault players

Then it's just bullying

[solid hinge]

Aerodrome is perfect for hill camping

The assaults wont even get near

[swift condor]

I've seen some absolute units run into the spawn to kill them before

True heroes

But people just sit with snipers too so it's a pain in the ass

[slate carbon]

why can you be laying down and still use your weapon to defuse, but to arm you have to be standing up?

[swift condor]

Good question

[main grove]

How the actual fuck am I meant to get 7 headshots over 50m with the LS

[solid hinge]

Its.. it's not under?

[swift condor]

Tap fire

Really fast

[main grove]

No there’s one under and then one over

[solid hinge]

get ten beyond 50 metre kills with a shotgun

why would you give an over 50 metre challenge to a very close range weapon

[main grove]

These are the new easier assignments by the way

[tight tusk]

slugs lmao

theyre thicc

[solid hinge]

I couldn't make slugs work at all

[tight tusk]

same

[solid hinge]

Felt like they weren't going where I was aiming

[tight tusk]

but apparently theyre good

[solid hinge]

When they did work they felt good

They just didnt

[tight tusk]

im too used to hipfiring with shotguns

so slugs are useless for me

[slate carbon]

why in a game, that is primarily in open fields and over long distances, do you use a shotgun?

[solid hinge]

Useful in niche locations

Arras houses etc

[slate carbon]

ugh i just hate being killed by them

"are you that bad you need to shove it in my face for a one shot kill?"

[solid hinge]

i dont get why people pick support for that close range fighting

gadgets aren't ideal for it

[slate carbon]

yeah, id rather just try to use my melee weapon then opt out of range fighting

or better yet, use a bayonet

[solid hinge]

Semis are effective at super close ranges as well

Especially if you have hipfire speca

[slate carbon]

true, i underestimate hipfire reduction so much

[solid hinge]

You can lose to one of the longest range weapons in the game under 5 metres

Turner with hipfire reduction is insane

[slate carbon]

i prefer the slrs to the semis

love that 2 shot action

except when they survive a headshot

[solid hinge]

I like slrs but I think semis are better

[slate carbon]

in what way?

[green elm]

versatility

[solid hinge]

Slrs might have the advantage on hitting moving targets cause they only need two bullets

to the body

but semis are better at basically everything else

g43 and 1916 are 3 shots and 2 if they're to the head

so they're better for stationary targets than the slrs

faster fire rate, bigger mag size, less recoil

[strong parrot]

lmao end me

legit end me.....fucking squad leader on brit side of aero conq

wastes the points until we get a rocket

doesnt use anything before that

calls in a rocket around the D point i think..no fucking kills

then leaves...

we of course lose because for 10 mins at the start of the round we cant even get the C point

[blazing kindle]

RSP’s?

[strong parrot]

rent a server program

[blazing kindle]

Mhm

[solid hinge]

gooood

bf1 cq is so much better its not even fun

ny

just played of st quentin scar with my barrage bomber

there was absolutely no shortage of tanks around objectives

the game's meta in general is so satisfying

because practically everything is powerful

no wonder ive played it so much, meanwhile im struggling to get 100 hrs into the bfv base game

attrition system is seriously the worst abomination

[main grove]

I don’t actually know why they decided to implement it

[solid hinge]

they didnt have anything else methinks

they didnt have anything on par with levolution or behemoths

so they instead opted to change the gameplay as much as possible

[main grove]

If it was to stop tank camping then why did they also reduce tank splash damage

[solid hinge]

huhhuh

tank camping is at an ALL time high

outside of the arty truck, there was little tank camping in bf1

[main grove]

I wouldn’t have cared all to much if BFV was exactly like BF1 but with WW2 weapons and maps instead

[solid hinge]

that's what i was seriously hoping for as well

bf1 did a lot of things wrong, yea

but it also did a ton right

maybe it was too fast paced

[main grove]

I prefer BFV’s shooting a lot yeah

[solid hinge]

but what we have now isn't a compromise, it's a total 180 lol

it's TOO slow

it's TOO boring

[main grove]

Tbf BF1’s shooting feels really arcadey especially on SMG and LMGs

[solid hinge]

agree

[shrewd grove]

BF1 felt a lot slower

[main grove]

BF1 LMGs worked like Hyperion guns from Borderlands

[solid hinge]

lmfao

[main grove]

They got more accurate as you fired

[solid hinge]

yeah a lot of the gun mechanics were pretty stupid

especially rbd

despite that it's a much superior game

[carmine wyvern]

How come i cant get into a firestorm match

[main grove]

They over nerfed Scout rifles

[solid hinge]

they over nerfed everything that was even half decent in bf1

[main grove]

In BF1 they were a little too good I think

[solid hinge]

medics, bolt actions

all vehicles

and instead just decided to give everything to one class

[midnight nimbus]

BF1 and BFV vehicles are equally trash, but in different ways

[main grove]

The only thing in BFV that consistently wrecks everything is semi autos

And ARs

[midnight nimbus]

ARs kinda suck

[solid hinge]

bfv vehicles are just ugly

[midnight nimbus]

besides 1907

[solid hinge]

they feel so shit to use

[main grove]

ARs are just better SMGs

[midnight nimbus]

ARs are just worse LMGs though

[main grove]

They need to do something to make the SMGs, ARs and LMG have less of an overt hierarchy

[solid hinge]

nah fam

they're just going to keep adding in more guns and cosmetics

and useless vehicles

[main grove]

LMGs like the Lewis gun are far too versatile

[cinder gazelle]

Oath

[main grove]

Especially if you slap a 3x on it

[solid hinge]

i dont think it'd be beneath them to compare all the new weapon and vehicle content to maps lol

[cinder gazelle]

You can snipe with them

[solid hinge]

each tank is worth 0.1 hamadas

[cinder gazelle]

Remember the mg 10 something telescopic and how you got clapped from the other side of the map by it

[solid hinge]

the browning?

250 rounds?

fuck i hate that thing

[main grove]

BF1 was kind of oversaturated with 450rpm stuff

[cinder gazelle]

And bipod LMGs

[solid hinge]

huhuhuh

[main grove]

Benet mercie, Lewis and huot might as well be, Perino, M1917

[solid hinge]

bfv is not lacking in bipoded supports

except this time it's more powerful mgs

[cinder gazelle]

Rlly

[main grove]

Both games have bipoders everywhere

[cinder gazelle]

I only play bf 1

[solid hinge]

bfv has a class of mgs called mmgs

they can only ads while prone

but they kill faster

[main grove]

One weapon class in BFV is entirely bipod focused

Yeah

[solid hinge]

mg42 can fire at 1200 rpm for fuck's sake

i mean i know it's the mg42

but come on

in this game's prone meta it's hell putting up with it

[main grove]

Tbh I was wondering how they would balance that before finding out it was an MMG

If you could ADS with an MG42 on the run

Jesus

[strong parrot]

just make it have bad accuracy with sustained fire?

[cinder gazelle]

Ye so you have to tap fire

[strong parrot]

bipods are too fucked ups till to make a whole class of weapon dependent on it actually working and if it doesnt you get fucked

[main grove]

You already have decent killing power up to 12 or so metres with the Hipfire ads thingy

I don’t know if Bipod were any good before BF1 when they locked you in place

I never tried them in BF4

[solid hinge]

i hardly used them in 4 lol

deployment was really a lot harder

a lot less automatic than bfv

and especialyl 1

you have to re ads everytime you dismount

[main grove]

BF1 introduced the free flow bipod

[solid hinge]

yeah

[midnight nimbus]

tbf, there isn't much DICE can do to further separate the hierarchy of semis > LMGs > ARs > SMGs

bc of the design choices they committed to

[main grove]

I just don’t understand why they added attrition to the game though
During E3 I was thinking “oh it would make supports really useful now” but now you never really run out of bullets but now being destructive in a vehicle is ill advised

You still could run out of tank shells in BF1 if you fired too fast and had to wait

[tacit kelp]

DICE are blind or what? Repair tool is overpowered

[midnight nimbus]

you could run out in BF4 as well

bc of based ammo pool

rep tool is fine

rep monkeying is awesome

[main grove]

Just kill the monkey

[midnight nimbus]

exactly

[main grove]

Tank rarely gives a shit about them anyway

[midnight nimbus]

an effective rep monkey actually has to be coordinating with the tank well

[tacit kelp]

i know

[midnight nimbus]

and be careful about positioning

[tacit kelp]

but sometimes is look stupid

[main grove]

Why the fuck do 4000lbs bombs now actually do nothing

[olive fulcrum]

Is anyone having abnormal amounts of lag on BFV

[main grove]

One landed about 8m away from my tank and did about 20 damage

[midnight nimbus]

as good as BFV's gunplay is overall, it just introduces so many problems

[tacit kelp]

How about tank cant OHK planes??

[main grove]

It depends on the shell

[midnight nimbus]

i don't think that matters

at all

[tacit kelp]

@main grove no it dont

[midnight nimbus]

in the big picture, it's a super niche thing that doesn't affect overall balance

[main grove]

37mm from a light tank would maybe do about 60 or so damage

[formal valve]

Maybe I’ll play Fortnite

[main grove]

75mm should one shot

[midnight nimbus]

if you're in a plane and a tank hits you, you're really really stupid

[formal valve]

17 pdr should melt anything it hits

But ya know

“Game balance”

[main grove]

People who feel the need to bomb about 5m from the ground

[shrewd grove]

Just don't fly so damn low lmao

[main grove]

17pounder is fucking huge

Considering the normal valentine shell is a 2 pounder

[tacit kelp]

Valantine 6 pound sometimes cant ohk planes

[hushed mesa]

@plucky hill Go to Tech

[tacit kelp]

Pz 38 T AP shell make 43 damage

Yes planes fly really bad

[midnight nimbus]

armor needs to be able to do more against planes in general

BFV armor really isn't very powerful

[main grove]

It needs more splash damage against infantry and use an ammo pool instead of this bollocks attrition

And they need to fix tank on tank combat

[midnight nimbus]

yeah TTK for tank v tank is all over the place

[main grove]

Valentine with its stupid fast gun is the best tank killer

[midnight nimbus]

same with plane v plane

yeah Valentine Archer is the king

[main grove]

Normal valentine i mean

[midnight nimbus]

HEAT/APCR is mandatory for the TIger just to compete

[main grove]

Stug is so shit compared to archer

[midnight nimbus]

normie Valentine w/ 6pdr is the second best for tank v tank

you can 4 shot a Tiger with AP rounds

[main grove]

Heavy tanks need more armour against normal shells

To incentivise using AP shells

Light tanks need to do a bit more damage

Maybe 18 per shot instead of 14

Archer needs to be a glass cannon to make up for its power

While stug is the opposite

I have no idea what the 3 inch gun carrier is like I’ve never used it

Churchill seems to be fine

Panzer 4 is also ok

[midnight nimbus]

Archer is kinda glass cannon-y already

bc the engine is in front

bring everything up to the level of the Archer

most tank v tank engagements are too slow

and it's too hard to out DPS rep monkey

tanks just need more damage output

[main grove]

A tank shell should be more deadly to a tank than anything the infantry could do

A light tank should take about 3 shots from a medium sized gun

Medium 4 shots maybe 3 if they’re landed right

And heavies should take up to 6 to take down

But only 3-4 ap shells

Should distance be a factor?

[midnight nimbus]

i don't think the difference in TTK should be that big

[coarse ermine]

What in the world is the gun carrier for?

[main grove]

It’s an anomaly

[midnight nimbus]

the biggest issue with tanking is often that your choice is more or less an auto lose if you're up against other tanks

like if you're playing on Panzerstorm, why aren't you picking Archer?

or Tiger for the Germans?

why on earth is a light tank even worth considering on something like Panzerstorm?

[coarse ermine]

My issue is that there's not that many tanks on most maps to begin with

[midnight nimbus]

that too

light tanks are virtually auto lose if there's another tank

[main grove]

Tank battles require no skill it’s usually just who starts shooting first or who has the rep monkey

[midnight nimbus]

yeah, bc movement is slow

well

[main grove]

I think that maybe set vehicles from BF4 should be back

[midnight nimbus]

it's about positioning yourself to minimize angles

i think TTK disparity is a bigger issue than attrition/movement/turrets

tons of tanks just aren't worth picking

tons of specs aren't worth considering either

like why on earth would you ever pick pineapple wrench?

that's a straight downgrade

why would you not pick 6pdr for the Valentine Mk8?

the 2pdr is terrible

but 6pdr makes it the best overall tank in the game

why is the APDS round for the Archer a straight downgrade?

[coarse ermine]

I kind of wish they went back to the Battlefield 4 system of only having certain vehicles on the map

[midnight nimbus]

there's so many shit spec decisions

[main grove]

That’s what I said

[midnight nimbus]

i don't mind free choice of tanks at all

like holy shit the vehicle spec trees are a travesty

[main grove]

But they should make it so you have an informed choice rather than Valentine if I’m British tiger if I’m German

How would you buff light tanks

They have 37mm guns so they should be crap at tank combat

37mm is shite in real life

[midnight nimbus]

idc about real life

or up their RoF, don't up damage too much

[main grove]

Increase splash

[midnight nimbus]

their mobility/turret advantages realistically don't matter that much

yes, splash is really bad on most tanks

make autocannons actually decent again

they're an idiot trap pick rn bc they're terrible

[main grove]

I swear they used to be good

[midnight nimbus]

AA tanks need to be more effective at literally everything

yeah autocannons used to be good

esp the Staghound when you stacked it with AP rounds

[main grove]

I destroyed using an autocannon staghound when the game first came out

AA is shit in this game

[midnight nimbus]

AA tanks need to not be totally helpless against armor and need to be better against infy

and better against planes ofc

they're not punishing enough against shitty pilots

[main grove]

It needs to do way more damage because you only get a small window due to faster planes now

[midnight nimbus]

yeah, spec balance for the AA tanks is especially terrible

[main grove]

Maybe make AA slow the plane down

[midnight nimbus]

the 3x 20mm cannons for the Valentine AA do less damage than the stock 40mm

no slowdown sounds gross

if you want slowdown, go for the wings or engine

[main grove]

Not massive but make it buckle everywhere

[midnight nimbus]

the default Flakpanzer cannon is awful too

[main grove]

And disorientating

[midnight nimbus]

no, the screen shake for pilots is stupid

more DPS for AA tanks alone is fine

give the chance for good pilots to get out

[main grove]

You are in a plane being hit by flak

Of course there’s going to be screen shake

[midnight nimbus]

AA tank exists to counter dumb pilots

[solemn wedge]

Imagine making battlefield realistic

[midnight nimbus]

i don't care for irl arguments

screen shake in gaming is stupid

screen shake needs to be completely axed

[main grove]

AA needs to be a big fucking punishment for pilots

In every way

[midnight nimbus]

yes, you can do that with DPS alone

instead of making it an unfun experience

[solemn wedge]

Every way...

[main grove]

Yes
DPS
Part damage
Can’t see shit

[midnight nimbus]

can't see shit is stupid

no

[solemn wedge]

I agree with kht, it would be unfun

[midnight nimbus]

the goal is to provide armor with a counter to planes

not make flying unfun

[main grove]

Being hit by AA isn’t meant to be fun

[midnight nimbus]

playing vidya is meant to be fun

[main grove]

How the fuck would you make it “fun”

[solemn wedge]

Imagine playing a game that is not fun

[midnight nimbus]

BFV is already masochistic enough

[main grove]

I just fucking hate planes and want them to fucking suffer

AA is shite

[midnight nimbus]

i don't want anyone to suffer while playing vidya

[tacit kelp]

Use tank and kill them

[midnight nimbus]

i'm all for more counters to air, since they're desperately needed

[tacit kelp]

its really nice when u OHK plane

nice feeling

[midnight nimbus]

but making the game more shit for everyone involved should never be the answer

[main grove]

Everything in this game vehicle wise needs more damage output

[midnight nimbus]

vidya doesn't have to be a zero sum fun experience

[main grove]

AA to planes
Tanks on other tanks
Tanks on infantry
Planes on other planes need a rebalance

[solemn wedge]

Thats a fact

[midnight nimbus]

yeah, BFV suffers from bad power drain

everything needs to be more powerful against everything

individuals are drained of agency in BFV, and it's a serious issue

having control stripped away from you isn't fun

[tacit kelp]

SO lets make new game 😄

[main grove]

The thing in this game are overpowered are the things that are normal

Like the valentine

[midnight nimbus]

yes, the Valentine Mk8/Archer are the gold standard

move vehicles up to that standard

[main grove]

So buff everything up to the valentine’s level

[midnight nimbus]

Ju-88A/C and the BF109 are the gold standard of planes

things need to be moved up to that level

[main grove]

Rather than nerf the valentine and make nothing in this game do damage

[midnight nimbus]

yes

[main grove]

Blenheim needs more destructiveness

[midnight nimbus]

shitty vehicles with shitty counters is basically BFV right now

with a few exceptions on the vehicle side

[main grove]

Spitfire’s are more dangerous than BF109’s aren’t they?

[midnight nimbus]

no

slightly better air-to-air, but not much

and BF109 ground pounds much harder

[main grove]

Oh yeah the Stuka is a tank

[midnight nimbus]

Ju-88C is the best air-to-air rn

it turns way too fast for what it is

and it melts everyone in the sky

literally a flying AEK vs other planes

[main grove]

Mosquito with 4 hispanos is scary

Isn’t that support Blenheim shit?

[midnight nimbus]

Mosquito kinda sucks now

and the Blenheim sucks in general

British planes aren't good

besides Spitfire

[tacit kelp]

mosquito is good in roght hands

[midnight nimbus]

German planes are better than British ones in the same manner that British tanks are better than German ones

[tacit kelp]

i see it many times

[buoyant zealot]

Здорова есть тут русские ?

[main grove]

Mosquito with the cannon and 6 pounder was too good I reckon

[midnight nimbus]

it got nerfed hard

[main grove]

They shouldn’t have both

Yeah the 4000lbs does nothing now

But when it did having both was too good

You melted both other aircraft and the ground

[buoyant zealot]

жаль

[midnight nimbus]

Mosquito 4x 20mms aren't that good either

[main grove]

It’s weird because British tanks being superior and German planes being superior is kind of the opposite of how it was

[midnight nimbus]

has a lot of spread

[main grove]

British heavy planes need way more love

[midnight nimbus]

yeah honestly, i wouldn't know how to fix BFV vehicles

throw the entire design away

[main grove]

Start from scratch

[solid hinge]

is it worth re buying a ps3 toplay bf3 again?

[midnight nimbus]

i have a lot of fun with certain vehicles

but the balance is so bad

[main grove]

Remove attrition

Work on planes vs other planes first

Fix the fucking drag mechanics making a JU-88 out turn a Spitfire

Then work on balancing how the planes interact with the ground

[midnight nimbus]

https://www.reddit.com/r/BattlefieldV/comments/b0nl81/discussion_battlefield_vs_vehicles_planes_tanks/eifuovm?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x
one of my friends wrote something good on this

[main grove]

Tanks should honestly be more deadly to everything

[midnight nimbus]

former BF4 comp player who was pretty damn good with vehicles

[main grove]

Yeah I believe spec trees are a mistake

Vehicle load outs were much better

[midnight nimbus]

yeah, BF1 did it right

variants = preset loadouts

no busted combos, no unviable ones either

even with BF1's meh vehicle balance

giving players more choice was a mistake

[bronze grotto]

mfw a valentine with ap rounds is better than the archer

[midnight nimbus]

eh

disagree

[bronze grotto]

the shells have no drop and i can delete enemy tanks harder than the archer somehow

[midnight nimbus]

the DPS difference isn't huge, and you aren't looking at the two vehicles as an entire package

[pale rain]

Oof

[stoic lark]

NA WEST Firestorm?

[formal valve]

Valentine shouldn’t be able to do more damage than the archer

Archer should annihilate armor

[main grove]

Normal valentine has got stupid good DPS

Against other tanks

But Archer is leagues better than the German counter part the Stug

[bronze grotto]

the stug is just sad

its stats is literally just the panzer 4

[civic sonnet]

I wish I could bring ammunition to tanks. I think that would make attrition more interesting

[bronze grotto]

but with no turret

[main grove]

Stug desperately needs a huge damage increase

[bronze grotto]

the stug should at least get the archer treatment and carry more ammo compared to its turreted counterpart

or give the remote mg to the driver

[main grove]

It also needs more armour on the front at least

[bronze grotto]

mfw it just gets trackblasted anyway

[main grove]

I keep forgetting that glancing blows with a Sturmtiger rocket are a thing

Why

[bronze grotto]

there should be some kind of overmatching mechanics

[main grove]

Same with bombs

[bronze grotto]

where really big shells should just ignore angles

[main grove]

A 1000kg bomb dropped directly on a tank just “ricochets off”

Fuck off with that

[bronze grotto]

just pretend its a dud

[sterile ledge]

humanity strongest bomb is far far far from an explosion of a volcano

[main grove]

Ok

So I need to summon the power of a volcano to kill that Churchill then

[sterile ledge]

there was this volcano explosion like a million years ago

that was so powerful

the smoke stayed for a century

[main grove]

Our strongest bombs cannot be safely tested anywhere on Earth now though

We have bombs more powerful than the Tsar bomba now that we cannot test

[sterile ledge]

nah

a wasteland will do the job

anyway

human explosive are nothing compared to that of mother nature

gamma ray burst for example

[night steppe]

tsar bomba?

oh

yh

[midnight nimbus]

stug is just a bad Pz4

Pz4 is a solid anti-infy tank

but stug can't do that

[strong parrot]

a whole round of hamada conq and this is the bullshit i come out with

literally fuck off game with this assignment

[shrewd grove]

I remember doing that one

[strong parrot]

oh and i cant even type the word assignment in game because it has ass in it

[shrewd grove]

It's bad

[strong parrot]

legit...fuck off game

also losing by 23 tickets because my team decided to go full on R word at the end and lose everything but 2 caps

[sterile ledge]

i thought it was easy

[strong parrot]

44-21 top of the team but what can you do

[midnight nimbus]

stug driver should be able to control the telescopic MG turret by himself

[strong parrot]

yeah because thats balanced

[sterile ledge]

since every cuck i met in squad conquest was prone mmg

[strong parrot]

aka i just want my tanks to be as op as possible to fuck infantry at every turn

[midnight nimbus]

stug driver being able to control the telescopic MG still wouldn't make it good

just usable

[strong parrot]

damn them making a tank that requires teamwork

oh..forgot team work is having "a rep monkey behind you"

[midnight nimbus]

there's teamwork, and there's team cooperation that hurts your team

this is the latter

a rep monkey is still flexible and can go where the tank can't

they're not attached to the tank

and tbf, i don't like the meta where infy has no response to tanks farming them any more than you do

[strong parrot]

Nice meme.

[formal valve]

Ppl complain about the assignments too much

[midnight nimbus]

i tank farm infy because i can

but i don't think it should be as effective as it is

[formal valve]

The assignments are not badly designed at all

They’re meant to help you get better

[strong parrot]

do you even know what the fg 42 is

help me get better..oh god

[formal valve]

You have to practice to get them completed

FG42

[strong parrot]

im being memed

[midnight nimbus]

how is getting a bunch of prone kills with what essentially is an assault rifle "meant to help you get better"?

[strong parrot]

the fg isnt a fucking lmg at all lol

[formal valve]

Ok that one I can’t explain

Bmac speaks le truth

[strong parrot]

its a fucking 20 round light assault rifle for a paratrooper

[formal valve]

Parachute gun 42

[midnight nimbus]

a lot of the assignments are fine

[strong parrot]

the fact it has a bipod on it was just a bonus because the designers wanted to add one on for more flexibility

[midnight nimbus]

a lot of them are also really stupid

[formal valve]

Paratrooper Rifle 42

[strong parrot]

but because dice classifies it as a fucking lmg it has to have the same dumbass assignments as ever other lmg

[formal valve]

Spot on name

[strong parrot]

thus having prone kills

[formal valve]

Why do so many people think FG means folding??

[strong parrot]

and going prone with the fg is actually stupid

[midnight nimbus]

almost like every gun should have its own set of assignments 🤔

[formal valve]

The FG42 doesn’t fold lmao

[strong parrot]

why do people think ar 15 means assault rifle 15

because theyre stupid

[bronze grotto]

kek

[hushed mesa]

https://i.imgur.com/5Q2z5UJ.png

[topaz dome]

I have no problem with fg-42 prone, just last night I would of had about 20 of those when I was playing

[strong parrot]

youre not meant to play the fg prone

if youre prone..youre not using the gun right

[formal valve]

AR 15 means Assault Rape 15

[midnight nimbus]

i still want 900 RPM 10 round FG42 😦

[solemn wedge]

Be appropiate.

[formal valve]

Fully Semi Automatic @strong parrot

@solemn wedge sorry

[lilac crag]

is it me or is the ls 36 very weak

[solid hinge]

You

[formal valve]

26?

[solid hinge]

[topaz dome]

if you are getting out of cover when you are outmatched and by yourself and would surely die, but have potential to camp and get some kills you're not playing the game right

[formal valve]

It’s pretty powerful

[midnight nimbus]

a lot of people seem to dislike the LS/26's recoil pattern

[solid hinge]

I got used to it

I have gold on it

[lilac crag]

yea

its asssss

[formal valve]

It’s difficult to control

But not impossible

[lilac crag]

bad with a 4x

[midnight nimbus]

i wish more guns had the 2x scope :/

LS/26 is perfect for it

[solid hinge]

I have 399h on bfv

Perfect number

[outer oxide]

Has anyone’s else’s game been super laggy the past weekend

Oh my god it’s the worst

[slate carbon]

so whats "fortress"

[shrewd grove]

Fortress is going to be like uhh

Basically D-day but as a mode

One team has to attack a super heavily fortified area

Who knows, I imagine it's going to be crazy

[formal valve]

“If we keep throwing people at the bullets, eventually, they’ll run out of bullets”

[topaz dome]

Zapp Brannigan 101 on how to defeat kill bots

[main grove]

Still waiting for when they add proper sight customisation

Being able to change magnification and reticle and have every sight with every skin

[topaz dome]

that would be great

[solid hinge]

They should add the Italians

[main grove]

I think the 5v5 mode will be French vs Italians

[bronze grotto]

tfw agm42 scopes clip with the fabric wrap

[main grove]

In southern France

[solid hinge]

That would be cool

Wth is up with the servers

Been playing for two hours now and about after 3 games the server just shuts down

Also the games I join are always 1-7 players

[bronze grotto]

headshots over 50m with the ls26 tho

😩

fugg dis shid

[midnight nimbus]

man did DICE learn nothing with BF1 Incursions

i can't believe they're continuing to force 5v5 comp in BF

[solid hinge]

It might be good here

U never know

[midnight nimbus]

even if it's good, it runs into the same problem as Incursions

[bronze grotto]

we already have squad conquest

[midnight nimbus]

a comp mode of a game needs to resemble the base game

[bronze grotto]

and they're going to make dedicated 5v5 maps? zzz

[midnight nimbus]

comp should've just been SQCQ

[solid hinge]

Who's excited for the Japanese faction?

[midnight nimbus]

5v5 does not resemble the base game in any shape or form

[solid hinge]

Coming in Chapter 5

[bronze grotto]

is this chapter 5

[midnight nimbus]

it hurts viewership potential, which is the whole point of comp

you can't have paid competitive individuals if no one watches

and if your comp mode doesn't resemble the base game, how is it supposed to attract new players?

[solid hinge]

More gamemodes is bare stupid anyway

Combined Arms is hard af

[midnight nimbus]

yeah, comp should've been an existing game mode

rush

[solid hinge]

Should be 4-5 gamemodes max with firestorm

[midnight nimbus]

SQCQ

or frontlines

[solid hinge]

Grind was mad

Grind was aight on the first few days

[midnight nimbus]

ugh DICE just doesn't get it do they

[solid hinge]

Then it evolved into sniper spam

[bronze grotto]

bring back argonne lul

[midnight nimbus]

i actually kind of enjoyed how degenerate Grind was

[solid hinge]

Those maps should be put into conquest rotation tho imo

[midnight nimbus]

i have a 100% winrate in Grind

bc i just flare spammed until my team could spawn trap the other team

[solid hinge]

Flare spamming might get you ban tho

In Grind

I wish we were getting more maps in the Mediterranean

Such a beautiful place
