battlefield-legacy-titles

[solid hinge]

They didnt add it until the movie released for hype

[soft storm]

A map every 6-9 months

[analog mist]

Gotta say, the first sector on Mercury as the british is painful.

[unborn blaze]

Oh god

I don't want that

[solid hinge]

Keep in mind the solo map was on small game modes

[unborn blaze]

[soft storm]

So really

Only 2 maps

[solid hinge]

So imagine adding a map only for frontlines and domination

[soft storm]

And 1 small mode map

[solid hinge]

[unborn blaze]

DICE pls bring back DLC

[analog mist]

Why in the world do you get spawned further back than your main base when spawning at A flag

[solid hinge]

Geonosis was the first map they properly added

and imo its shit

[soft storm]

Please I feel so much happier paying for dlc

[solid hinge]

but whatever

[soft storm]

I feel like shit buying cosmetics

[unborn blaze]

At least we get a decent flow of content

[solid hinge]

the biggest part of swbf2 is they literally havent added any guns or gadgets

[hollow trench]

I loved how the DLC system was in BF4

[solid hinge]

each class has 4 guns and one of those is the default shit weapon with no mods so that's effectively three weapons per class

[soft storm]

Literally China rising out a month after release

[unborn blaze]

I think I played about 12 hours of SWBF2

I still own it

[soft storm]

Try 100

[unborn blaze]

I just don't touch it

[solid hinge]

I played it for a long time cause star wars woo but it's like.. not good

was ficking riddled with bugs too

[soft storm]

I’ve learned now to just buy origin access

And then buy the game on sale 3-4 weeks later

[solid hinge]

they added 4 heroes before geonosis and each one was significantly bugged on release

[hollow trench]

Is it better than G2A?

[soft storm]

Isn’t g2a like

[unborn blaze]

You know, at least BF has appropriate betas

Let's be real

Remember the Fallout 76 "beta"?

[woeful thorn]

Wait, is it true that u can buy all weapons launched in trial of fire?

[unborn blaze]

Yeah

I think

[woeful thorn]

Where!?

[unborn blaze]

I have all the weapons, iirc

In the Company screen

Under replace weapons

For CC

Thank god not boins

I wish BFV's flight was a bit more... realistic

[woeful thorn]

Oh god

What about the

At boy?

[solid hinge]

Hey this is unrelated help me

[unborn blaze]

Not yet

Tomorrow or the next day

[solid hinge]

how do I do mouselook in spec mode for BFV

[woeful thorn]

Oh ok but it will be available?

[unborn blaze]

Unless they changed it

Yes

No clue, MEC

[woeful thorn]

Okay! Omg loool damn thanks I just came back because of the visibility fix

[unborn blaze]

Dunno if I can help you with that

[woeful thorn]

Thank you !

[solid hinge]

rip

[unborn blaze]

Why don't you weigh some bobby pins

[solid hinge]

I'll figure it out then I guess

[unborn blaze]

Google it?

[solid hinge]

I'm trying

[unborn blaze]

Ah

I play BFV on Xbox, so I'd know nothing about that

[woeful thorn]

Wtf Mercury is out!? Woah!!!

[unborn blaze]

Yeah

https://twitter.com/Battlefield/status/1133723664258654208

The mad lads

They surprise dropped it

[solid hinge]

I wonder why

[woeful thorn]

What about FPS drops?

[solid hinge]

[unborn blaze]

We all know that reason

[woeful thorn]

Is it only me?

[solid hinge]

the fps drops are as prominent as ever

[unborn blaze]

[woeful thorn]

.>

[solid hinge]

if not worse

[unborn blaze]

It's BF

[woeful thorn]

Yikes, time to quit again!

[unborn blaze]

Remember the PC version of BF4?

[woeful thorn]

Idk this game makes me doubt about my hardware

Yikes

[unborn blaze]

console gang rise up

[woeful thorn]

Cant get stable 144fps with 2080 ti

On low on fcking new map

xD

[unborn blaze]

So?

144fps is good, man

[woeful thorn]

No i mean i cant get

[unborn blaze]

Use v-sync?

Until further notice?

That's what that is, right?

[woeful thorn]

Uhh 144hz monitor qq

[unborn blaze]

Framerate cap?

Sh

Use 60fps then

[woeful thorn]

Its not fair to get 90 fps woth everything on low

Ayeee 60 fps lol

[unborn blaze]

Dude, BFV is a demanding game

[woeful thorn]

With 2080 ti x'D

[unborn blaze]

I have a PC which can run Sniper Elite 4 on max

But struggles to run BF1

[woeful thorn]

Uhhhhhh

[unborn blaze]

What?

[hazy wasp]

new map is pretty as fuck

[unborn blaze]

I get like 20fps on 720p at everything low

Idk why

[west lichen]

will this game ever get an auto balance mid round

[unborn blaze]

God I hope not

[west lichen]

every single game I get into is a stomp one way or the other

[flint helm]

Auto balance mid round sometimes got annoying

[solid hinge]

lol rip lynx

[unborn blaze]

This, kids, is why you buy a console

[west lichen]

being 1st place on my team with 10k score when 25 other people on their team have that much is more annoying

[solid hinge]

my 1660ti which is overclocked gets like 61 fps on high settings

[unborn blaze]

Because you spend $800 on a PC

[solid hinge]

shooters on console ew

[unborn blaze]

And then get my results

[solid hinge]

Or you spend 2.5k and get my results

[flint helm]

$800 doesn't sound like that much for a pc

[solid hinge]

which is sitll

[strong parrot]

ooof a fucking melee blade and a weapon skin..next 2 weeks of tow are rip

[solid hinge]

shit

[unborn blaze]

$800 for me is a lot

[hollow trench]

I just got my PC a moth ago for $500 from my old roomate. It has a 1070

[solid hinge]

nice

got lucky

[flint helm]

It's a lot of money, but in terms of a pc I wouldn't expect to get much out of it

[west lichen]

new map is appreciated but this game is still on life support compared to battlefront 2

[solid hinge]

i got mine 4 years ago for 2k and upgraded the gpu a month ago fro 350

[unborn blaze]

Both of those games are on life support

[solid hinge]

i hope the next game is interesting

[flint helm]

I just experienced a blizzard for the first time on the snow map (can't remember the name) and it was epic af

[solid hinge]

vietnam war

[unborn blaze]

BFV and SWBF2 are on life support

[west lichen]

BF2 actually gets content

[flint helm]

I know they dialled back the storm effects after people complaining in bf1 but this was p cool

[unborn blaze]

It has gotten... how many maps for the actually fun game modes since release?

2?

3?

[soft storm]

Yea

2

[unborn blaze]

SWBF2 is on sodding life support

If that

[flint helm]

Battelfront 2 was so hype and then everyone realised it was classic EA

[soft storm]

And they’ve removed about 16 maps worth of content

[scenic beacon]

I just want a night map in a tight forest tbh

[soft storm]

Every single map of domination and frontlines...

[unborn blaze]

I want a decent beach map

[soft storm]

Gone

[flint helm]

I hate night maps in battlefield, can't see jack shiz

[soft storm]

For a new map and 2 modes on it

👌

[unborn blaze]

I want more snow maps in BF

[flint helm]

Same

[unborn blaze]

And, like, actual snow maps

Not tame ones like Narvik or Fjell

Ones where the snow will somewhat blind you

[flint helm]

I wouldn't mind a jungle map

[unborn blaze]

Jungle would work here later on

[flint helm]

The blizzard in the game I just played blinded you @unborn blaze

[unborn blaze]

Yeah, but it's on Narvik

I want like, the campaign maps

Like that facility

[flint helm]

Do you know what I haven't even touched the campaign for battlefield V

[unborn blaze]

Go play it

It's not half-bad

[flint helm]

I hated the war stories concept in bf1

[unborn blaze]

Last Tiger is cool

[flint helm]

It's a glorified tutorial

[formal valve]

Play the prologue and the Last Tiger

[unborn blaze]

If you don't play on Hardcore

Hardcore in this game isn't fun

Or rewarding

It's a lot of insanity

[hollow trench]

When do custom servers come out?

[soft storm]

Soon

[unborn blaze]

When the 5th map comes out

So never

[formal valve]

Lmao

[flint helm]

It made me so angry playing bf1 war stories where it became so obvious that they were trying to teach you multiplayer concepts in single player, which was A shame because they put in the effort for cut scenes and their previous campaigns were gripping

[unborn blaze]

Tbf

[flint helm]

A let down in my opinion

[unborn blaze]

The war stories replacing tutorials is nice

[soft storm]

The core philosophy of their single player changed

Coop should be where you learn tenements of MP

SP should be a story

[minor gale]

New Map is a solid 7/10

[flint helm]

Yeah war stories replacing tutorials is neat af, but replacing campaigns?! What's with that

[unborn blaze]

BF isn't really about campaigns anymore

[soft storm]

It never was

BF1 was a fluke

[flint helm]

Bf2 campaign was awesome

[unborn blaze]

Do you know how many people skipped the BF4 campaign?

[flint helm]

Bad company 2

[soft storm]

Uhhh

How many wanted the 3 guns

[unborn blaze]

I didn't even touch it until XBL was down

[flint helm]

Battlefield campaigns were decent in terms of the set pieces at least

I played every single one

[unborn blaze]

I didn't really play 3

3 was a confusing mess

[flint helm]

Wow 3 was amazing

[unborn blaze]

🤢

[flint helm]

The sniper building in the middle East

That was so cool

[unborn blaze]

See, I don't know that map

[flint helm]

I remember the demo at e3

It was epic af

[dusky badge]

I did all campaigns in bf1 for that sweet black bess skin

[unborn blaze]

I enjoy the remasters they made for BF4

[dusky badge]

also IM A STAND UP KIND OF GUY

[unborn blaze]

Oh, yeah

[dusky badge]

IM A STAND UP KIND OF GUY

[unborn blaze]

BB skin

[flint helm]

And the jet mission where you fly the military jet

That was cool

[unborn blaze]

Put that on the side of a Churchill

I'd buy boins for that

[dusky badge]

bfv needs more bf1 throwback skins

[flint helm]

Basically battlefield campaigns weren't god awful, but now they sure are and it's a shame

[unborn blaze]

BFV needs a Bloodied skin

For the Churchill

[mossy fox]

Anyone on PS4 getting a flickering screen glitch when playing on Mercury?

[jagged nexus]

churchill is crap

[unborn blaze]

Lolwhat

[unborn blaze]

The AVRE version is great

[jagged nexus]

i wanna drive this yellow bulldozer

[unborn blaze]

With the HESH rounds

[carmine eagle]

No

[unborn blaze]

There's an AVRE Centurion in WT with HESH rounds

And it kicks ass

The HESH rounds use the armour of a tank against it

[jagged nexus]

screw this british crap

[unborn blaze]

Excuse me

[solid hinge]

imagine calling the churchill crap

[unborn blaze]

I'll have you know the Churchill was an amazing weapon of war

But we do need a Cruiser tank in the game

[solid hinge]

Big question

laughs in 0.1% tanker stats

[jagged nexus]

the battle was always over before it arrived

[solid hinge]

Is it possible to start a Firestorm match with medium armor?

[unborn blaze]

The Cruiser tanks?

Do you know your British armoured doctrine?

[midnight nimbus]

Churchill is ok

[jagged nexus]

depends on where you land

[solid hinge]

Before you even get out of the plane

[jagged nexus]

but everyone goes for the good spots

no

[solid hinge]

Two of my random squadmates had armor on parachute

1 medium and one light

[unborn blaze]

[formal valve]

hacking

Jk

[solid hinge]

No for real is there a way

[unborn blaze]

Not that I'm aware of.

[solid hinge]

Or are they hacking cuz this is Xbox

[hazy wasp]

this map is fuckin rad

[solid hinge]

I screenshotted it

[unborn blaze]

@jagged nexus but seriously, British tanks are amazing

Why are you dissing them

[jagged nexus]

I like the valentine

[unborn blaze]

Valentines are too fast

Tbh

Why didn't they just add another tank if they wanted a medium

[solid hinge]

tbh Allied tanks need a nerf

[unborn blaze]

I disagree

[hazy wasp]

rip me ran into the entire enemy main attack column there

[unborn blaze]

The Allied tanks are heavily armoured

The Valentine and Churchill are heavy tanks

[solid hinge]

valentine outpreforms a tiger in every respect in BFV and its insane that its normal

[unborn blaze]

By all means

[solid hinge]

the valentine was a pog in rl

[unborn blaze]

Valentines can kill a Tiger irl

[solid hinge]

Valentine is not a heavy tank

[unborn blaze]

At least one with the 6lber

[solid hinge]

A Staghound can kill a Tiger

[random rock]

even the 2lber one could damage the turret ring

[solid hinge]

It’s all about the tanker

[unborn blaze]

I'm talking about an irl Valentine

An IX or XI could kill a Tiger

Anything below those had the 2lber

[solid hinge]

Valentine is super weak tho

[unborn blaze]

Which could only go through about 70mm at best

[solid hinge]

in 1943 prime minister churchill sent all the new valentines he had left to the USSR and the soviets were like FU

Tiger can 2 shot kill a Valentine

[flint helm]

Mercury is out already??

[random rock]

yh

[unborn blaze]

So?

Valentines weren't meant to fight other tanks

[flint helm]

Weird I didn't see it on the home page when I played earlier @random rock

[unborn blaze]

They were meant to fight infantry

Hence their "Infantry" designation

[solid hinge]

Idk what your argument is I’m just stating facts

[unborn blaze]

They fought alongside infantry

You don't understand the mindset of the British designers

They didn't just make these things willy nilly

[solid hinge]

What are you talking about

[unborn blaze]

Nvm

You clearly don't get it

[solid hinge]

the 2 pdr fuckin sux in game but the 6 pdr is ridiculously good

[unborn blaze]

^

Like real life

[formal valve]

You guys think they’ll make an entire pacific island as a map? Or just part of one

Crete is like 402.5 times bigger than Iwo Jima

[unborn blaze]

6lber is better than the 75mm on a Sherman

[solid hinge]

yeah it was made for a war that never happened, i'll concede that ..inreality tho it was a widow maker

[formal valve]

Iwo Jima is like 8.1 Square Miles

[hazy wasp]

Wake Island is an easy win to get the community on side

[solid hinge]

I honestly don’t know what you are arguing I know British tanks were solid idk why you’re telling me about it

[gray glade]

@formal valve they will do the entire island i reckon, they did in the past anyways

[unborn blaze]

You said the Valentine is weak

[jagged nexus]

btw guys what level are you in ToW?

[gray glade]

of course the scale of the island will be a bit off, but thats natural, its a game

[unborn blaze]

I'm pointing out that DICE is putting tanks meant to fight bloody ground troops

[hazy wasp]

31

[unborn blaze]

Against tanks

[formal valve]

^

[hazy wasp]

i think let me check

[formal valve]

Valentine is a infantry tank

[solid hinge]

yeah and buffing them

Yeah we all know that

[jagged nexus]

churchill also in an infantry support tank

[solid hinge]

I said it was weak to a Tiger armor wise

[unborn blaze]

Ehhh

I wouldn't say that

[solid hinge]

Tiger can 2 shot it

[unborn blaze]

The Tiger had a lot of flat plating

[solid hinge]

With Heat-T

it had 2 the same armour as the axis apc

[hazy wasp]

Anyone not in this 'discussion' how long has it been going on for lol?

[unborn blaze]

The Valentine had more slopes

[solid hinge]

only if they're using Heats and they hit weakspots

[random rock]

about 10 min

[solid hinge]

Must be pretty easy to hit

valentime performs very well against tigers considering how much more mobile they are

[hazy wasp]

hah

[unborn blaze]

Which triggers me

[solid hinge]

I prefer the 2 pdr cannon

[formal valve]

Give a valentine one Heat-T round

It’ll be running away

[unborn blaze]

Because now it's just a bloody cruiser

[solid hinge]

Tiger will win in a straight up brawl but valentines have mobility advantage and a higher fire rate

2 pdr can shoot down planes easy

[gray glade]

i dont think it would be wise to make the tank vs tank warfare too realistic in this game

[hazy wasp]

Tiger 1 is the best anti armor vehicle in the game

[unborn blaze]

Why didn't they add the Crusader

[solid hinge]

the 2pdr cannon in game is unironically the worst cannon in the game for actually dealing damage

Nah it’s great

even its splash damage vs infantry sucks

[unborn blaze]

The Crusader is way faster

[hazy wasp]

you should be using the MMG for infantry hoenstly

[unborn blaze]

And had the same armament

[solid hinge]

to me the valentine should be the same as the PZ 38t, they have the same class and the same age

I've stolen like 4 valentines recently that have all been 2pdrs and they were doing like 12 damage to the turret of heavy tanks

which is practically nothing

[midnight nimbus]

Archer > Tiger

tbh

[solid hinge]

Archer is campy

[hazy wasp]

if the tiger doesn;t see the archer in time

[unborn blaze]

To me, the 38 (t) and the Crusader are the same

[hazy wasp]

if the tiger sees that archer g'bye

[solid hinge]

and at long range the tank mmg sucks ass

[unborn blaze]

But it isn't in the game

[strong parrot]

lmao first game on mercury...guy hacking on my team

[unborn blaze]

For some reason

[midnight nimbus]

as a dedicated Archer slut... nah

[strong parrot]

every headshot with a kar, 82-8 at the end

[midnight nimbus]

Archer eats Tigers

[random rock]

will point out that tiger's valentine 2-shot requires no glancing blows, for the tiger to have actually picked the HEAT spec tree over right side, and for there to be no fences/walls/random infantry in the way.

[solid hinge]

Archer can do pretty well vs tigers

[strong parrot]

then he leaves the server before it ends

[unborn blaze]

The 17lber is amazing

[solid hinge]

117lber

[unborn blaze]

Sh

[solid hinge]

[hazy wasp]

Archer is the best anti tiger british vehicle

[unborn blaze]

117lber

[solid hinge]

archer is best anti everything

[unborn blaze]

Just shreds anything

[hazy wasp]

its pretty damn good

[solid hinge]

not only does it have the best gun, it has spotting scope

[unborn blaze]

I'm sad there's a 6lber instead of the 17lber

For the AT guns

[solid hinge]

and a gunner in the back

the amount of people who run behind your archer and think they're safe

Archers are easy kills imo

A lot of blindspots

[random rock]

*bad archers are easy kills

[unborn blaze]

^

Good Archers?

You don't even see them

[solid hinge]

Well that’s a lot of players lol

[formal valve]

17PDR sucks ass

Should tear them in two

[solid hinge]

they have a really wide traverse range compared to like.. the stug

[midnight nimbus]

the Archer 17pdr is so good

[solid hinge]

sometimes I forget it's not even a turret

[midnight nimbus]

best DPS in the game

[unborn blaze]

The 17lber way outclasses even the 88mm

[midnight nimbus]

and you don't need to be able to rotate

[solid hinge]

buff stug pls

[random rock]

17pdr is around 76mm, it won't tear much in two.

[midnight nimbus]

bc spotting camera

[solid hinge]

Guys is the fifty-percent-off Loyalty Offer for Battlefield 5 still on? It used to show up in the main-menu screen of Battlefield 1.

[random rock]

no

[midnight nimbus]

i want the Cromwell 🤤

same 17pdr as the Archer

normal tank turret

[unborn blaze]

What

[midnight nimbus]

fastest British tank in the war

NUT

[unborn blaze]

Cromwell?

[formal valve]

I want the Firefly

[unborn blaze]

Are you high

[solid hinge]

is the archer with engine upgrade the fastest non-light tank

[unborn blaze]

That never had the 17lber

[random rock]

imagine being yeeted by a cromwell

[formal valve]

Lmao yeah

[unborn blaze]

Not even once

The Comet did

Which was made on the Cromwell chassis

[formal valve]

When did the Cromwell have a goddamn 6pdr

[solid hinge]

it feels like the fastest

[unborn blaze]

Cromwell I

Before the speed limiter

[midnight nimbus]

or no, the Challenger

Cromwell was still fastest

[solid hinge]

I mean in game

[unborn blaze]

Comet has a modified 77mm

[midnight nimbus]

but challenger had the 17pdr

77mm was based off the 17pdr

[solid hinge]

also light tank buff when

[random rock]

never

[unborn blaze]

Which is essentially a 17lber

[formal valve]

But the firefly

[random rock]

was terrible

[unborn blaze]

The Firefly will get her day

[formal valve]

Sherman pls

[midnight nimbus]

Cromwell had a 75mm variant

[unborn blaze]

And then it'll rule the battleground

[formal valve]

M3 grant pls

For memes

[unborn blaze]

The Cromwell had a 75mm, yeah

[formal valve]

For memes

[unborn blaze]

But the 75mm is worse than the 6lber

SS ftw

No shrapnel

But hoo boy

[formal valve]

SS ftw

[midnight nimbus]

M18 Hellcat when

[unborn blaze]

Does it pen

What?

Solid Shot ftw

[random rock]

let me just surgically fire at every one of your modules

hold on

gunner

track

[formal valve]

Oh

[unborn blaze]

I'm exaggerating

[formal valve]

I’m dumb I

Never mind

[unborn blaze]

The solid shot

Had some shrapnel

[solid hinge]

um

is this real

[random rock]

yh

[formal valve]

Why everytime I see SS I think SchutzeStaffen

[solid hinge]

can you buy TOW ranks with boins

[random rock]

yh

[solid hinge]

I wish I could say you were dreaming

[random rock]

I think Sixth Sense

[solid hinge]

but yes, its real

sooooooooooooooooooo

[unborn blaze]

But focused on the pen more than the post-pen effect

[formal valve]

Super Succ

Ftw

[solid hinge]

they're progressively monetizing more and more of the game

meanwhile the game is still starved of content and more buggy than at release

nice

[random rock]

most solid shot still sucks tho

[formal valve]

Soon we will have to pay a 5 dollar entry fee to do tides of war weeks

[gray glade]

you dont have to buy the stuff

[random rock]

season pass for new game modes

[gray glade]

i havent used a single boin so far but im enjoying the game

[solid hinge]

im irritated that so many TOW assignments are gated to firestorm

[unborn blaze]

Solid shot is best shot

[solid hinge]

means I have to grind harder to get ranks

im ok with overpriced cosmetics

[formal valve]

Solid Shit

[solid hinge]

and they just removed the best mode for grinding

if suckers want to spend half the price of a full game on shitty skins, whatever

[formal valve]

WAIT

[gray glade]

best mode was fortress 😦

[formal valve]

I HAVE A GAME THEORY

everyone shhhh

So listen

[gray glade]

oh dear

[formal valve]

They’ve added buyable tiers, and are taking away the best mode for grinding them

coincidence?

[unborn blaze]

Uh Oh

[formal valve]

I think NOT

[solid hinge]

nope

[gray glade]

what do you mean by buyable tiers?

[solid hinge]

ffs they're taking CC stuff from the store and rebranding it as boins only epic

[formal valve]

Buyable tiers in the chapter rewards

[solid hinge]

of course that's part of the reason

[gray glade]

tiers as in levels?

[solid hinge]

150 boins ups your TOW rank by ond

[unborn blaze]

It's poopy

[formal valve]

Yeah

[gray glade]

ah

[solid hinge]

1.5 dollars for 1 rank?

oh man

so to get to rank 40..

[formal valve]

Now watch in chapter 4 it’s takes hours to grind one level

[solid hinge]

40x1.5

[gray glade]

i dunno, i dont feel so bad about it

[solid hinge]

60 dollars

[unborn blaze]

From where I'm at, it's $40

[gray glade]

all these cosmetics are optional to me

[solid hinge]

60 fucking dollar

[gray glade]

and i still have plenty of skins to use for each map

[solid hinge]

you have to pay the price of a full game to get to max rank

that is just

wow

i know the desire of getting all limited time things appeals to people

[gray glade]

we could always go back to dlc's

[solid hinge]

pRemIuM spLitS tHE PLayurBAse

is this shit alternative better?

[formal valve]

PREMIUM BAD

[solid hinge]

is this cancerous monetization scheme better?

[formal valve]

no

[solid hinge]

hey tf2 managed to make it not suck

all the meanwhile the game is MORE bugged than at release and we've only gotten 1 map

[formal valve]

I wa being sarcastic

[solid hinge]

this model is a disaster

[gray glade]

the funny thing is that ppl asked for this

LITERALLY

[formal valve]

1 map that isn’t a asset reuse

[solid hinge]

they're making more money for a fraction of the effort

15 dollars for a skin vs 15 dollars for several maps

[formal valve]

[solid hinge]

yeah obviously the former is a better bargain

[formal valve]

[unborn blaze]

TF2 is still being updated tho

[solid hinge]

sorry

[unborn blaze]

Don't bring it into this

[solid hinge]

15 dollars for new maps, weapons, modes and factions

titanfall 2 I mean

[formal valve]

*laughs in Boins

[unborn blaze]

oh

[solid hinge]

[unborn blaze]

REEEEEEE

[solid hinge]

they actually added stuff

and like.. functioned on release

[formal valve]

YELLS IN REEE

[unborn blaze]

TF2 isn't Titanfall 2

[solid hinge]

like im pretty sure they've made more money from this scheme than in any other previous bf

[mild badger]

[unborn blaze]

Those are the top 10 games on Steam atm

[solid hinge]

gta v ew

[hazy wasp]

rocket league what a game

[solid hinge]

scummiest monetization model on the planet

no wonder more devs are trying to replicate them

[unborn blaze]

^

[solid hinge]

remember back when microtransactions were new

[formal valve]

This is Electronic Arts we are speaking about

[solid hinge]

and they were actually microtransactions?

like 1 buck for a skin or something

whats the most active bf game besides v

now they're just

transactions

4

[mild badger]

4

[random rock]

BF1 or 4

[hazy wasp]

hoenstly i bet a lot more of you guys would buy the stuff if it were lower priced

[solid hinge]

play 4

ok thanks

[formal valve]

I still buy it now lmao

[hazy wasp]

4's gameplay isn;t as good as V's

[solid hinge]

sucker

[formal valve]

Yep lol

[hazy wasp]

V's funplay and traversal is better

[mild badger]

Last time I checked BF1 I couldn't get into a server. Was in a queue for 5-6 mins

[hazy wasp]

Vehicles we shall yet see

[solid hinge]

i couldnt even get the shit even if i wanted to

[random rock]

4's gameplay is a lot older, but it's fun.

[hazy wasp]

its fun but meh

[formal valve]

Bepis

I approve

[hazy wasp]

I had my time with 4, it was great but i moved on

[solid hinge]

let's not confuse gunplay with gameplay

[random rock]

same

[solid hinge]

i dont think ive ever bought a cosmetic

v has excellent gunplay, but abysmal gameplay

[formal valve]

Yes

[crimson ruin]

1>V

[hazy wasp]

it is more satisfying to run around in V

there is momentum to your run

[solid hinge]

4 has gameplay worlds better

since you know, it had vehicles and maps that didnt suck and stuff

[gray glade]

im afraid to install bf4 again, im so used to bfv now i dont wanna spoil my memories of bf4

[solid hinge]

i went back and i loved it

[unborn blaze]

BFV feels more fluid than BF4

[hazy wasp]

I tried 4 recently

[solid hinge]

im a bit rusty but eh

getting the hang of it again

[hazy wasp]

its not what i remembered

[solid hinge]

yeah the gunplay is worse

the movement model is a lot more chunky

[gray glade]

i do miss using FLIR on bipods tho

[solid hinge]

and the 3p animations are a disaster

buuuut it's still the better game

[hazy wasp]

btw speaking of goign back and goign how the fuck did I play this trash

[formal valve]

I miss my WW2 games looking like WW2

[hazy wasp]

CoD4 remastered in Plus

LOL

oof that game aged badly

[formal valve]

[solid hinge]

mwr is still kinda fun

it's balanced like dogshit

but still fun

[hazy wasp]

if you enjoy it more power to ya but fuck me that game is dated

[solid hinge]

it is

[hazy wasp]

Killstreaks actually are the worst thing

[solid hinge]

frag x3.. stopping power/jug meta.. the snipers

yeah the killstreaks were hella annoying

[hazy wasp]

Killstreaks that lead into new Killstreaks LOL

[solid hinge]

too good for the little kills they need

yeah and they stacked

they got rid of that post mw2

[hazy wasp]

the best thign CoD4 made me do was fire up titanfall 2 again

[formal valve]

BC2 Nade Spam PSA

[solid hinge]

best streaks were in blops 1

[hazy wasp]

that game is aging well

[solid hinge]

mw2 streaks were the HYPEST

I hope they add more reinforcements to bfv

[hazy wasp]

when did they rob medal of Honors Score Streak?

[solid hinge]

yes

[hazy wasp]

which CoD?

[solid hinge]

combined arms ai reinforcement asap

bo2

[hazy wasp]

ah

[solid hinge]

mw3 had point streaks tho

[hazy wasp]

Medal of Honor had great ideas

both 2010 and Warfighter

Operations mode in BF1/V is from MoH

[solid hinge]

i love getting spawnkilled in nuketown and bog

i never played MOH tbh

[hazy wasp]

they were fun

[solid hinge]

short lived tho

i think the last one died a quick death

[hazy wasp]

everyone hates them because reviewers had Military fatigue and scored them lower than they needed to be but they werre fine

2010s MP was rough

[mossy fox]

Anyone on PS4 having graphics issues with the new map? I'm getting a bad flickering

[hazy wasp]

Warfighters was very like what Siege became with the different operators from around the world

[solid hinge]

I love AI controlled reinforcements in any game

[cedar cove]

I worked from 8am to it's now 3pm I feel like I deserve to at least LOOK at the map right?

[solid hinge]

they're my favourite thing in the world

[cedar cove]

I mean

I need to see

[hazy wasp]

its fuckin good man

[solid hinge]

it looks very pretty

it plays

[hazy wasp]

it reminds me of Val Paraso(SP?) from BC2

[solid hinge]

it.. plays

[hazy wasp]

it plays like VP from BC2

Almost exactly so

pro tip make sure you and your squad are forting an area

theres 0 cover lol

haha

@solid hinge we wont exactly know the map flow for like a week or 2

people are lost half the time

[cedar cove]

"where do I go?"

[formal valve]

I hate those assholes who hide in the DFSs with their boys

[solid hinge]

This is true but still

[formal valve]

DFS is a German glider btw

[solid hinge]

Breakthrough literally feels like grind

[hazy wasp]

breakthrough is rough

conquest is solid https://battlefield.fandom.com/wiki/Valparaiso

thats the map iw as talking about

[solid hinge]

I spent a life headshotting people continuously in the same trench because there was literally no cover for me to advance without killing these people and they either had a medic or just kept respawning because they wouldn't stop

was like wackamole

[hazy wasp]

nice

[solid hinge]

which is why bolts should have unrevivable headshots

[hazy wasp]

my squad couldn;t get to an objective so i did a sneak around to the side and used the hill as cover to get up ebhind the snippers and headshot 3 in a row

[solid hinge]

If I shoot a dude and he falls behind cover and a medic revives him then I basically just stalled him for a couple seconds

[warm atlas]

So Mercury is just sniperpalooza huh

[hazy wasp]

I agree on bolts having unrevive headshots

[solid hinge]

God yeah the sniper nests are awful

[hazy wasp]

i was gonna stab em but i need LE kills

[solid hinge]

Bolts having unrevivable headshots would allow you to actually help assault locations

[warm atlas]

I just played a game where I was getting tagged like 15 times every time I popped my head out

[cedar cove]

JFC whats w/ all the high ping servers ?

[solid hinge]

also the boys apcr round currently DECIMATES any building you shoot it at

[warm atlas]

It does? Hmmm

[hazy wasp]

Oh so thats what that was

[solid hinge]

it doesnt work against tanks but it'll blow any fortifications up

you can take those water towers out in one hit

[hazy wasp]

fuckign blastwave knocked me on my ass out of a building and it wasn;t a tank or plane

[solid hinge]

blow up entire buildings with it

it has to be bugged

[hazy wasp]

the best kind of bugged though

[solid hinge]

theres no way it should be busting everything like that

[hazy wasp]

the hilarious kind

[solid hinge]

what

bugs in bfv?

nani

[hazy wasp]

*bugs in Battlefield

[solid hinge]

Honestly yes I'm taking it rn over high velocity bullets because the utility of being able to blow up fortifications and houses from miles away is great

[hazy wasp]

never forget, godzilla recons in 3

[solid hinge]

high velocity bullets is kinda balls

i mean it goes from 400 to only 450 m/s?

not a huge deal

Usually only a 10% increase

[dense bone]

unless its the 60% movement increase

[solid hinge]

It's something, but being able to blow up entire houses in one shot..

[dense bone]

[solid hinge]

Oh fuck that goddamn spec

[dense bone]

60% movement is so good

[solid hinge]

Lighrened stock is godawful

[dense bone]

people dont even know

[solid hinge]

b-b-b-but it's fair because bipod

Slings and swivels literally makes you take your pistol out 0.05 seconds faster

[dense bone]

necessary

[solid hinge]

While lightened stock let's you basically have full movement speed while ads

[midnight nimbus]

3 frames

[solid hinge]

[formal valve]

Interesting

[solid hinge]

I hate it

[midnight nimbus]

that's the difference between like StG and 1907 killing you

[formal valve]

There’s a lot of DFS gliders on the map

And dolphins

[solid hinge]

imagine if slings and swivels made you pull your pistol out 60% faster

as if the revolver wasnt op enough

[dense bone]

i bet that would be a super odd looking animation

[solid hinge]

stahp

[limber dune]

did mercury drop early?

[formal valve]

Yeah

[solid hinge]

would actually be viable on bolts

[formal valve]

Where you been dude

[limber dune]

i played this morning but never saw the map

[solid hinge]

pop one shot then quick swap to pistol and fan the hammer

or they could just like

buff the body damage

idk

idkkkkkkk

[midnight nimbus]

BF1 frommer stop swap meta

[formal valve]

Just aim for he head......

[solid hinge]

tfw 54 damage

[midnight nimbus]

400ms TTK if you don't miss

[formal valve]

Literally just shoot him in the head

If you can’t, don’t take the shit

Shot

[solid hinge]

I'm trying but they all have lightened stock

[midnight nimbus]

or uhhhh don't snipe

[solid hinge]

All they have to do is wiggle and I'll never land the hit

how to use a shotgun:

[formal valve]

Or use the Boys lmao

[solid hinge]

just be 10m from the opponent

[formal valve]

[solid hinge]

it's that simple

sooo easy

The boys ^

Ooooooooof

Its a beast

I still think the boys doesnt do anything a mmg cant do

[midnight nimbus]

damage vehicles

[solid hinge]

+2 to a tiger turret

[midnight nimbus]

insta delete people

MMG TTK isn't that instant

[solid hinge]

tell that to my latency

[formal valve]

It can do quite some damage to vehicles if you hit the right spot

[solid hinge]

am i the only one who would take sniper sweet spots over this boys meta

[formal valve]

Remember when I did 63 damage to a tiger with one shot to the ass?

[solid hinge]

You WHAT

[formal valve]

I did it again, to a Churchill

Yeah I was shooting a tiger from Th bridge in TS

[solid hinge]

maybe there was dynamite stuck to it

Did you temporarily exchange your boys for a tiger cannon

[formal valve]

And it wasn’t doing much

And then shot a shot to the back

And boom, 63 damage, a engine disable, and he tiger is in flames

I quickly finished him off

[solid hinge]

😨

[formal valve]

I was in so much shock that I forgot to record it

[hazy wasp]

they could make the skybox for the map a bit bigger all the same

feel a wee bit constricted ind ogfights

[formal valve]

I wish it was as big as the Practice ranges skybox

That’d be cool

[hazy wasp]

Hamadas is huge anyway

Hamada would be a fantastic dogfight map if it werent for the heat haze

[formal valve]

Fax^

So @solid hinge yeah

63 damage with one shot

[solid hinge]

yeah the map can be amazing if it had respawning transports and no heat haze

[formal valve]

And I swear I was the only one engaging him

[solid hinge]

Terrifyingn

[formal valve]

One time I did 20 on a shot to a Stugs side skirt

[solid hinge]

maybe blowing up the engine actually does something

[formal valve]

Maybe

[solid hinge]

Or like.. it has a crit chance?

[formal valve]

There’s gotta be a sweetspot on the vehicles

Or maybe that yeah

[crystal eagle]

I was so excited to play the new map then I remembered how shit BF5 is

[solid hinge]

That seems unlikely but that damage is huge

[hazy wasp]

I'd be cool with a fuel cap

[formal valve]

Cuz my friend did 73 damage with one shot to a Churchill Gun Carrier yesterday

[hazy wasp]

a really awkward to hit fuel cap ona vehicle

[formal valve]

Watched him shoot it

[hazy wasp]

like san andreas 😛

[formal valve]

And then he yells HOLY SHIT

And then he gun carrier must’ve been like NANI cus he turns his ass around and smokes is with a shot

[worldly fossil]

How big is the map update

[formal valve]

There isn’t a update

It’s already in the game from last weeks update

You should be good to go when you launch the game

[solid hinge]

I'm laughing

[worldly fossil]

Ahhhh

[solid hinge]

It sounds like a bug

[formal valve]

It does

But then it keeps happening

And you go

And the guy in the receiving end goes

[solid hinge]

tfw boys has a chance of shooting 114mm rounds

[icy sluice]

The other AT Rifle will have Tear Gas in it's rounds or something like that

Which uhh... is real.

"The round originally had a steel core and a tiny capsule of tear gas. The round was to penetrate the armor of the tank and the tear gas to force out the occupants of the vehicle. The idea was impractical due to the core penetrating the armor and leaving the capsule outside. Later bullets used tungsten cores due to its better penetrating power."

Bren is neat

[jagged nexus]

depends on your style

[opaque cipher]

Lewis

97 rounds of fuck you going down range

[icy sluice]

http://www.smallarmsreview.com/display.article.cfm?idarticles=1179 My source for the tear gas claim

[vestal locust]

So I tried shooting a tank and the game wasn't even recognizing it (had the AP spec to try it/see if fixed), but then I decided to shoot a wall of a building on the new map and it just blew up. At least I know I can get those pesky window peekers

[solid hinge]

Love getting one shot by the boys rifle at any range. Really what a balanced weapon

[icy sluice]

I love snapping their necks (which is an actual animation if I need to say to the uneducated)

[vestal locust]

One of the best takedowns ^

[hazy wasp]

yeah that stutter is starting to get me killed

[icy sluice]

I used an enemy's own S-Mine to help kill him
https://streamable.com/nhfe0

[hazy wasp]

i respect that artistry

[dense bone]

what an ugly sight wtf

[hazy wasp]

the 3x

2x is much better

huh

[dense bone]

thing shoots peas after a short distance, what do you need more than irons for?

[hazy wasp]

mine must have been bugged then

[icy sluice]

That is the 2x

[hazy wasp]

they had the reversed designations for me the week they came out haha

[dense bone]

how dense was that dude, takes explosive damage, gets shot once, and still turns the corner trying to fight

[solid hinge]

@vestal locust the apcr rounds for the boys are currently broken and dont hurt tanks, but they destroy ANY fortification

literally everything ive shot at has broken

its fun

[frank loom]

since frontlines gone what is the fastest way to grind TOW exp?

[hazy wasp]

I'd of jumped down ran under you waited a few seconds than snook up behind you

[jagged nexus]

Why does the Churchill have more amunition than the Churchill? Irl the Tiger had 92 shots and the Churchill 74-82...

[solid hinge]

What churchill specs are you using?

[icy sluice]

I'm hearing a noise from the main menu.

[hazy wasp]

shit i forgot to respect my tiger before jumping ingame

[icy sluice]

I have no idea what this is

How have I noticed this before?

It sounds like rickety metal swing being pushed

Like first starting the game it sounds like a swing or something

[hazy wasp]

people playign in squads need to stick together gawd

[vestal locust]

Well that explains everything... still fun and will continue to be my favorite rifle to use, er..2nd favorite next to the Kar98K

[solid hinge]

2x is the shit

Love that sight

[solar crystal]

im looking for a crew in bf5 on pc if anybody is interested

i run scout. i do alot of call outs and statagey stuff

i dont do much spelling

[dense bone]

anyone not using 1x or irons on p08 should stop using that gun

what next? 3x on suomi?!

[jagged nexus]

someone got an idea, when we will get this skin https://youtu.be/BibedgMr-Qc?t=132?

[solid hinge]

I wish

The irons on the p08 throw me off

[gentle sedge]

who here has played the new mercury gamemode?

[hazy wasp]

wtf

I shot a guy in the ehad 3 times and no dmg?

[gentle sedge]

im playing it and its 12 midnight for me

[solid hinge]

thwres a triple barrel valentine AA that's not overheating on the enemy team

like its 100 to 0ing me without stopping shooting

i thought germans were supposed to have air superiority but every single match ive done the brits have had the most aircraft

[hoary creek]

@gentle sedge I playtill 5am

[hazy wasp]

okay that plane loop sound noise is fuckign annoying

i actually have to quit out that is fucking impossible to play with

just constant bomber sound loop going on

[solid hinge]

Ayyy

Imma start off with an unpopular opinion

I personally think bf3 had the best campaign out of every game in the series

chasing spitfire
get multiple hitmarkers that do 0 damage
fly 5 metres above a dangerous curve they do for safety
I blow up against nothing and they dont

i hate this shit man

i hate it

[gentle sedge]

@hoary creek you are a true warrior

[hazy wasp]

C flag on conquest needs more cover when you are coming up on it

they also need to move the two spawns so they are equal distance from the first objective

[solid hinge]

Honestly

I think everything is already fine

[hoary creek]

[hazy wasp]

if you have two evenly matched teams

whoever caps C first wins

there is no way to flank, there are no boats to quickcap A to counter them

[solid hinge]

this fuxking AA has a bead on me from everywhere on the map

i cant do anything

[hoary creek]

Lol

[hazy wasp]

the map is like when Panzerstorm was released

it needs an update down the line

Also I haven;t checked but can you rebuild houses with fortifications so you can.. I know this is a revolutionary concept, but defend objectives?

[solid hinge]

I find nothing wrong with this game at all

[mossy fox]

Any suggestions on how to get the trophy for killing 5 players on AA guns?

[silver niche]

I found one thing thats wrong

[hazy wasp]

is it jsut with an AA weapon or does it have to be the stationary AA?

if its just an AA wepaon get the German AA tank

[solid hinge]

I've never felt any AA damage me as much as that one did that match

what the HELL

[silver niche]

Any time planes, bombs, JB-2 or V-1 rockets explode near trees, they dont interact with the gust of wind after the bomb explodes.

[solid hinge]

It was like every single shot hit me

[mossy fox]

@hazy wasp Stationary I think

[charred heron]

Totally no cheats involved

[strong parrot]

feels like mercury should be bigger

[charred heron]

Or he's just high Tier AA player

[solid hinge]

I'm on console so there probably werent

[hazy wasp]

use a vehicle to ToW the AA so you don;t get bombed I guess

[solid hinge]

Just.. I've never ever had that before

[strong parrot]

e and d are so fucking close to each other

[hazy wasp]

Airborne might be a shout if you kill the paratrooper planes?

[solid hinge]

Yeah it feels too small for the vehicles to be utilized properly

[strong parrot]

also C is a cluster fuck

[solid hinge]

They dont do so well with going up hills

[hazy wasp]

D and E are hilariously close

[strong parrot]

the amount of times i was instantly shot when spawning there

and being shot in the back...holy shit

[coral fiber]

Snipe must snipe..

[silver niche]

Ye but guys

[strong parrot]

or a sniper over at the cliff side shooting me 5 times, not hitting me, before i could fucking spot him

lul nice visibility...

[silver niche]

Can we take a moment to ignolage

[hazy wasp]

btw can we all take a moment to appreciate the fact they gave us houses that we can totally level and everyone is complaining about it 😛

[silver niche]

That planes have been nerfed so badly

[hazy wasp]

if Planes are nerfed anymore might as well take em out

[icy sluice]

Ignolage

[silver niche]

There very slow now

[coral fiber]

They are

[hazy wasp]

on fighters use the Nitro boost

[silver niche]

Especially fighters

Nitro boost goes back to what it was from before

[hazy wasp]

when a bomber tries to slow switch, use the nitro to fly under him, loop over and behind again

[silver niche]

You know its actually bad going under a bomber

[hazy wasp]

what planes need is Air radar instead of the map

Air radar with a Navball

[silver niche]

No one goes under bombers because they have _ _ _ _ _

[hazy wasp]

if you do it fast enough they can;t switch to bombs to kill you

also fly under their wing

[silver niche]

They can look behind

I am a master at the mosquito and stuka, the bombs let go easily

[proven acorn]

oh shit a master

[silver niche]

iKr

Bow down peAsent

[charred heron]

planes
Nerfed too much

[silver niche]

You know for customization tanks should have a bush skin

[proven acorn]

i love planes that fly low and straight

[charred heron]

Planes are the tumors in this game, next to Assault mains

[hazy wasp]

closes subreddit yeah man what a way to make you feel shit about the game

[proven acorn]

u tellin me assault is too good?

[charred heron]

For real tho, they nerfed the AA with the last patch too much, but now when it gets buffed a bit, then planes become 200% useless or what?
