So some people prefer the Ross

[summer geyser]

its like they purposely put some weird blur filter on the three prongs

[solid hinge]

Yeah it's weird

[summer geyser]

while the ross is just any old good looking iron sight

[solid hinge]

Odd choices made

[summer geyser]

ye

i wish it was a glitch

so that they fix it

[formal valve]

The dolphin tried to sexually assault me

I’m scared of water now

[latent bridge]

Lol

[solid hinge]

most irons in the game suck

and so do all of the non 2x, 3x and 6x optics

[zealous void]

Pit crew goes well with AKA

If you have it, use it!

[solid hinge]

Best sniper in the game?

[slate carbon]

gewher

[solid hinge]

krag

[vestal locust]

Going up in levels has been painfully slow.. like they are trying to get us to buy and use boins

[slate carbon]

but gewher does more damage

[solid hinge]

Wait whats that gun

Krag has faster bullets

and the sexiest reload

[vestal locust]

Nah, just go with Boys AT Rifle. Best one here 😛

[slate carbon]

i guess it doesnt matter, either way you have to hit them twice

[solid hinge]

Touchè

[slate carbon]

unless boys at rifle

[solid hinge]

The Krag actually does so little damage that people can outheal you before you shoot them twice sometimes

[vestal locust]

Only thing ya need to be worried about is your mobility and using the bi-pod

[solid hinge]

54 damage on a bodyshot

it's.. small

[vestal locust]

However I do agree that the Krag is nice, but I prefer the Kar98 because I'm bias like that. Ross also would be a good choice if ya want something a little aggressive

Ross, bayonet and iron sights... mmm-mm

[tough fox]

i dont like the new map everyone is just sniping

[solid hinge]

I’m mad because I started sniping today and don’t have enough time to get the boys at rife

[formal valve]

It’s not that hard

[vestal locust]

Love the map for the looks and atmosphere, but I feel tis way to small.

[formal valve]

Took me only a few games to get the boys

[tough fox]

they should have made the hills bigger

[solid hinge]

if you include the airfield and the ruins from breakthrough the map is significantly larger

i think they intended to have them as part of conquest but shrunk it for some reason

So I should try

If you do the bottom section of the TOW you should have time

Why the bottom?

[brave cypress]

Reminder that it's bullshit that we can't customize our vehicles in game without one being ready to spawn

[solid hinge]

Can be done in a couple games

[strong parrot]

the fact the ruins at the west and the airstrip arent part of the conq map is dumb af

[formal valve]

Yeah

[royal gull]

Finally playing the new map... and it kinda sucks

[solid hinge]

I think it's fine

[coral fiber]

I like it

Atleast we have a map tho

A new one

[solid hinge]

Yeah there’s definitely cheating in Firestorm now

Players are parachuting with armor

[tough fox]

the new map looks good terrible for gameplay though

[serene patrol]

Actually had a great match on Mercury, finally

[royal gull]

I think the asymmetrical nature ruins Conquest

[serene patrol]

conquest, started as 48 players then became 64. was close

The map has a better feel to it with 48 players, usually I don't say that

[slate carbon]

the maps are still too big imo

[royal gull]

I heard Morse code on mercury

[frank loom]

what's the fastest alternative to grind ToW exp since frontlines gone

[slate carbon]

@royal gull i hear morse code in every single match

@frank loom play operations

seems to me the best way to grind normally is long matches

[tough fox]

im finding the germans always win on conquest due to the height advantage they get overlooking objective C. On the other hand the Germans always seem to lose on breakthrough

[grizzled lake]

Like conquest or operations?

[coral fiber]

Ok

Airspace needs to be expanded in mercury

AA range is ridiculous

[slate carbon]

the advantage isnt really that big of a factor, its usually the unbalanced teams

[sacred junco]

think the high ground in C is a little too good

at least so far in the my limited playthrough

[solid hinge]

Yeah, so many flanking opportunities

[sacred junco]

Map feels like a combination of a town in Suez Canal and hill sections of Karelia

[solid hinge]

In D and E it feels like Suez but scaled down

[sacred junco]

C covers a lot of vision

[solid hinge]

Whoever gets C controls everything...I think

[sacred junco]

and its pretty easy to trench in

its an interesting map

[brave cypress]

Air combat in this game is fucking boring

Once someone gets behind you, it's impossible to fight back

Unless you try to stall out and get behind them that way

But 90% of the time I try to do that

The prick slams into me and magically gets the kill

Oh boy fortification destroyed

I hate the fact that every time you drop your trash payload of bombs, you have to fly to a resupply station and then wait for your stuff to regen

Like

Would it really be that bad if bombers could carry 2 sets of bombs at once?

So they don't have to fly across the map every time they need more?

[willow inlet]

How long are the elite skins 990 instead of 1500 Boins?

[solid hinge]

They really need to remove the in plane repair mechanic and make it so that you automatically repair everything when you resupply

and also make it easier to land for the hardcore servers which do pop up

[compact oxide]

They just need to remove the planes tbh

[solid hinge]

no

[grizzled lake]

Why?

[solid hinge]

It sounds really far fetched and DICE will never do it

I had a long ass discussion with some infantry tank whore who legit believed planes in Battlefield were a nuisance so that's my reasoning

[grizzled lake]

How about the field repair?

[solid hinge]

The thing about field repair is that it unnaturally prolongs dogfights

[grizzled lake]

True

But bombers would get reked

Lol

[solid hinge]

I think there need to be designated planes for each map, actually

so, take hamada's real life equivalent, operation battleaxe

in the real operation the british had bombers and the germans had attack planes

to counter attack planes the British should have access to anti-air to chase down the attack planes

and the germans should have stationary anti-air

[grizzled lake]

True but it would cause imbalance between the two teams...

Good thinking

[solid hinge]

It needs to be heavily tweaked but with a balance found it could theoretically work

also solves the issue with selecting aa tanks in maps with no planes

[grizzled lake]

Lol

[solid hinge]

another example, Operation mercury, the germans have bombers and the british have extra anti-air tanks

[grizzled lake]

Hate when people spawn camp with as tanks

[midnight nimbus]

field repair isn't an issue

the massive differences in plane TTK are

[grizzled lake]

Aa tanks*

[solid hinge]

Plane TTK can be solved by upgrading the plane though

that's all on you

[midnight nimbus]

well there are 12 possible upgrade paths for each vehicle

most vehicles only have one good path

not all vehicles even have options to have good plane DPS

[solid hinge]

Well yeah but once you get a full path then you can redo it with no cost

[grizzled lake]

Agreed

[midnight nimbus]

why make the system unnecessarily confusing for players?

not many people know that their loadout isn't a good one

[solid hinge]

That's not confusing though?

It's about experimentation

[midnight nimbus]

why are 11/12 options suboptimal?

[solid hinge]

That's probably another issue on it's own

[midnight nimbus]

very few vehicles have 2-3 good loadouts

most only have 1

[solid hinge]

the upgrade options are kinda trash

[midnight nimbus]

some planes even at optimal loadouts are uncompetitive

TTK is all over the place

[grizzled lake]

Is the ju 88 b worth it?

👀

[midnight nimbus]

there's an A and a C

they are both the best planes in the game

[solid hinge]

the A is the evil one

[grizzled lake]

The c

[solid hinge]

A is the one everyone cowers in fear from

the B is kinda gay

[grizzled lake]

I herd there is a cannon on it

[midnight nimbus]

Ju-88A is an unparalleled ground and pound vehicle

[grizzled lake]

On b

[midnight nimbus]

Ju-88C is the best dogfighter in the game

shreds things so fast that maneuverability is irrelevant

not that it turns that slow either

[grizzled lake]

I see

Thanks guys

[solid hinge]

why does origin keep updating, i just had to update it yesterday too

worse part is it updates so fucking slow

[civic sonnet]

How long does it take for new weapons to be purchasable? No way I’m getting the boys at from tow

[grizzled lake]

Lol

[brave cypress]

Pretty sure they're available right after the new week starts

[grizzled lake]

I never play the firestorm mode

Only played it for like 6 matches

[civic sonnet]

Cool. Cause these challenges suuuuuuck

[grizzled lake]

Ikr

[brave cypress]

Mercury Breakthrough is so boring

[grizzled lake]

Can’t play during the week days;-;

[civic sonnet]

I really prefer the grindy challenges. At least I’m always making progress. Chasing tanks around to disable an engine is just stressful

[solid hinge]

well fuck me then

[brave cypress]

The fact that

Whenever I heal myself

Midway through healing, I could step on a lit cigarette

And my healing instantly stops and I get fucked over because the nearest medic station is on the other side of the galaxy

It pisses me off

[solid hinge]

Are y'all getting hitreg glitches

I unloaded a full clip into this guy and not a single bullet register and died

This happened 3 times

On the same guy

I got a clip where I hit a tiger 3 times and I got no damage

I can admit when I don't hit my shots and I will admit one time I didn't hit him enough to kill him

But none of my bullets registered

None of them

My ping was fine and I checked his was near mine

This game really punishes you for playing it man

And not in a challenging way

But an unfair and unhealthy way

[brave cypress]

Tfw your plane spawns pointing at the ground

Can they add team switching already?

I'm sick and tired of trying to level up my Mosquito and getting put on the German team every time

[coral fiber]

Actually mercury is not that bad i like it

Conquest atleast

Breakthrough on the hand...

Not so much

[brave cypress]

Yea

Conquest is really fun

[fervent rivet]

I like breakthrough more than conquest tbh

[brave cypress]

Ugh

I hate how slowly I earn CC

[coarse thunder]

Any new vehicles confirmed to be coming out?

[fervent rivet]

I'm not sure about vehicles but i think they should increase the rate of cc per difficulty of challenge not 100cc

[brave cypress]

I just want to get the amount of CC the game tells me I'm getting after a round

God

[fervent rivet]

^

[coarse thunder]

Apparently there are plans of increasing the level cap, so that's 1,000 CC per level

[brave cypress]

Level cap should have been higher than 50 in the first place

Jfc

[fervent rivet]

I'm currently at 50

[brave cypress]

I have multiple days played on BF1 and am still nowhere near level 150

[fervent rivet]

Damn

[brave cypress]

Have maybe a day or less on BFV

Reached level 50 in like a week

[fervent rivet]

It's a lot easier to level up in this one honestly

[brave cypress]

The PIAT on Mercury Breakthrough is just dumb

The first objectives are on flat land

[fervent rivet]

Is it broken?

[brave cypress]

Sit on an ammo station and farm kills ezpz

[fervent rivet]

I never use the piat

[proven hatch]

typical bf5

[fervent rivet]

And i don't care much for the boys rifle

Not my style

[proven hatch]

queue up for a match then i see * so and so gets promoted to squad leader" while in a 2 minute queue LMAO

[fervent rivet]

Ouch

[proven hatch]

Broken game

[fervent rivet]

Pretty much

[proven hatch]

Like how am i in a queue for mercury and i see someone get promoted to squad leader while im in a queue

[fervent rivet]

I wish they had an air only or tank only combat mode to help people level up their vehicles

[proven hatch]

same

[fervent rivet]

Also, tiger tank is op

[brave cypress]

They could at least raise the max amount of vehicles on Panzerstorm and Hamada

[fervent rivet]

^

[proven hatch]

i try to fly and bomb in peace next thing i know im getting harassed and i bail

[brave cypress]

And turn the spawn rate up

[fervent rivet]

Fr

[proven hatch]

YES

[solid hinge]

So Air Superiority from BF4 and BF1?

[fervent rivet]

Yesss

[proven hatch]

Spawn rate up

[fervent rivet]

And maybe land superiority or i dunno have maps for only tank battles

Or like

[proven hatch]

i hardly fly cause i get my health depleted in like 5 seconds

[fervent rivet]

Battle of Britain air superiority?

[solid hinge]

historically

[proven hatch]

huh

[solid hinge]

a 109 should not outrun a spitfire

*outurn

[fervent rivet]

^

[coral fiber]

I've noticed that too

[solid hinge]

What is the new conquest map rotation with Mercury released?

it has been

its called Mercury

[solemn wedge]

It includes Mercury Conquest and Mercury Breakthrough.

[cobalt siren]

mercury looks good, but thats about it for the map

the conquest combat flow is .... boring

[silver niche]

They have a gamemode called mercury so you can be in mercury but its mercury breakthrough, i rather conquest

[solid hinge]

again, it has both conquest and breakthrough in the game mode called Mercury

[stoic breach]

Who said the Tiger tank is OP

[glacial berry]

@stoic breach I did ( but not really ) 😝

[stoic breach]

[glacial berry]

So is the new map out..? In rotation?

....
Oh and I changed my vertic...

The Boys AT gun is pretty good. 😎

[solid hinge]

seriously...?

[proven acorn]

the boys is meh. mildly annoying if you arent an assault

[solid hinge]

the tiger is the most underpowered tank in the game, its been nerfed so hard they may as well give it a chastity belt

[glacial berry]

Oops. Lol 😂

But yea I just woke up

[solid hinge]

ok cool

[proven acorn]

i thinks tanks are too easy to kill in general

[frank loom]

yeah they are

but how the hell do you disable an engine

killed 10 tanks every side cant do it

wtf triggers it

[proven acorn]

shoot em in the butt

[frank loom]

not working for me

[proven acorn]

with a piat

[frank loom]

any specific explosive?

ok ill try

i was using panzer and sticky bombs

[solid hinge]

a shot to the rear deck usually does it

but

consider this

in any game now you see many many people running around with a boys AT Rifle, so

obviously it is possible

[frank loom]

technically they could have skipped it but yeah i know what you mean lol

[proven acorn]

imagine if you could go up behind a tank, throw 2 dynamite on its ass, and insta kill it with a piat shot

oh wait you can

[stoic breach]

I'm waiting for the Boys AT to stop being used because of new weapon hype

[proven acorn]

they are free kills tho

[compact oxide]

People use it because Stodeh wrecks with it and they wanna be cool too

[proven acorn]

it only annoys me when i get hip fired by a rushing sniper

[frank loom]

ok wtf? i just randomly did it but i didnt even hit the back. whatever dude.

next mission "kill a tank" way easier than disabling engine lol...

[stoic breach]

I forgot Stodeh made a video about it

[dusky saffron]

@solid hinge

[solid hinge]

honestly you can do the whole tow in one round on panzerstorm with an AT gun at E

its not hard

[dusky saffron]

smh

do flares not get shot out now

[brave cypress]

Lmao I literally can't earn CC

Assignments give me nothing

DICE needs to fucking sit down and work on fixing the game

Instead of pushing new content

Because this is ridiculous

[oblique jetty]

anyone wanna play bf4?

[solid hinge]

CC is useless anyways

Everything worthwhile costs boins

[stoic breach]

Worthwhile cosmetics

[solid hinge]

Hanna revive speech translated "you stupid english pie eating piglet, get you fat arse back in the fight"

I’m yet to see any Hanna characters in game I’ve seen 4 Wilhelms and that’s it

[compact oxide]

I can only ever think of Borderlands when I see Wilhelm now

[solid hinge]

she is well made and her voice emotes are entertaining

but you do get a little "SHOOT AT THE PONY TAIL LADS!"

[fiery quarry]

Straya servers are dying

[dusky saffron]

@wicked garnet YOU

everyone is here

[drifting plume]

Hi when is the launch date for the private servers

[compact oxide]

No official release date just yet sadly

[drifting plume]

😭😭😭😭

[wicked garnet]

@dusky saffron get you ass on coms

voice

[dusky saffron]

I'm in my personal discord

just deal with text xd

[wicked garnet]

No

invite me 😄

only calinyth do text

[dusky saffron]

I'll think about it

:)

[wicked garnet]

mah

[compact oxide]

Only if you guys get me in Nyphons server

[dusky saffron]

Yeah that's a never

[compact oxide]

[dusky saffron]

@wicked garnet you're not missing out much anyways

I just ping to communicate

[solid hinge]

Hey, do you think they should make Breakthrough in BFV similar to Shock Ops from BF1?

Standalone breakthrough though, not in Grand Ops

[graceful prairie]

ill look for secret fortifications on mercury now

maybe there is something there

[compact oxide]

@dusky saffron what did I ever do to you for you to be so mean?

[dusky saffron]

it's mainly a joke but a reason could be for pinging me

wuv u tho @compact oxide

[compact oxide]

Aww @dusky saffron

[dusky saffron]

@wicked garnet @solid hinge best squad

[wicked garnet]

@dusky saffron getting somethink to eat

[dusky saffron]

aight

[wicked garnet]

I fucking love that map

[twilit pelican]

O empty servers

How i love you

I finally got the turret

I got ontop of a tank and places 2 mines

Placed*

[wicked garnet]

now the engine part ?

thats easy

use a plane to bomb

a tank

[twilit pelican]

Nah hit it from the back with rockets

Got it all the time

I got 4 hours to finish this to get the boys

[wicked garnet]

i got it for a week or so

its OP

[hoary condor]

Mercury is a great map

[wicked garnet]

I really like it

just not in breaktrough

with 109 ping when you play with @dusky saffron D:

[dusky saffron]

ye

[wicked garnet]

109 is better with planes 😄

semes like i lag to much for them to hit me 😄

[dusky saffron]

there we go

[dull basin]

Is the game getting stuck in endless "finalizing" after installing the update for anyone?

[solid hinge]

Best squad.

[dusky saffron]

Hell yeah.

[wicked garnet]

@dull basin it can happen sometimes

give it some time

Ofc best sqaud ❤ @solid hinge ❤

and alt

who was the other guy?

maston just random

[dusky saffron]

my friend

[solid hinge]

I think he might’ve been one of Alt’s friends?

[dusky saffron]

Mhm

[solid hinge]

[wicked garnet]

Ah

thats hot

[dusky saffron]

lmao

[solid hinge]

Ah~ so my presumption wa-

[dusky saffron]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZVNB8ls3FCo

[wicked garnet]

was just locking for that @dusky saffron

ffs

[dusky saffron]

lmao

Was guessing Pocari didn't know what you mean

[wicked garnet]

yep

[gaunt skiff]

The new Tow assignment is unlocked?

[solid hinge]

20-0 with valentine archer

[twilit pelican]

Wild

I had no hope of unlocking the boys

I get on after 2 days of not playing and did everything from turret to completion within 2 games

[vocal steppe]

@twilit pelicannice i didn't even try

[solid hinge]

How does someone do 2-20 with lewis gun if I was that bad I would just play a different game

[frigid violet]

maybe drunk, or high? or 5 year old

[solid hinge]

More than likely lol

[vocal steppe]

Or both

[solid hinge]

This AT rifle has honestly made the game pretty stale for me every game I play a 3rd of the enemy team is recon just laying down at the back of the map or down shit with the AT boys not even PTFO

[hoary condor]

True

it's considerably OP

[solid hinge]

As soon as I saw AT rifle get announced I knew this would happen

yeah I was farming them last night

It’s like the people who are bad at sniping if they aren’t using an SLR they’re using the boys

I’m just glad they didn’t allow ADS on it without bipod

[graceful prairie]

sniper always made the game stale but that boys made it even worse

[hoary condor]

snipers aren't a 1 hit kill like the boys

if you get hit by an slr, you still have a chance to find cover

[vocal steppe]

Yeah best is in breakthrough when half the attackers are back sniping, you got no chance to win

[frigid violet]

yeah, who would be crazy enough to run through bullets

maybe smoke spamming might help

but doubt it

[hoary condor]

i was smoke spamming yesterday

has the smoke launcher so you can get a good distance at the campers

[graceful prairie]

:o

you cant expect medics to use smoke doh. that would be asking too much most cant even smoke when reviving

[hoary condor]

i stand at the ammo crate, first thing and spam

shoot about 6 smokes, then resupply and get into battle

[graceful prairie]

https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/RadioStation-bugged/m-p/7904260#M15247

like so this major bug gets fixed asap

[hoary condor]

True

i reported and it was acknowledged by a Dev that the piat doesn't have the reload function

if you shoot then sprint, it auto loads

[solid hinge]

My whole squad is brain dead I die to a sniper and 1 by 1 they run out to revive me and they all get killed

[graceful prairie]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xcJtPZbUHGE

wtf that sound

What should be happening instead? Not getting stuck

[twilit pelican]

@vocal steppe you didnt unlock it?

@frigid violet cover would help

[sly vault]

2 classes down, 2 more to go...

[hoary condor]

GG

[sly vault]

Given they are both lvl 17 shouldn’t be too long...

[solid hinge]

EA streaming some of their biggest games, Battlefield V

[quasi aspen]

1 hour left is it possible to get Boys AT rifle

[random rock]

probably not until it goes on sale...

depends how close you are

[icy sluice]

Yay another knife after I just got Poignard

[wicked garnet]

I know

[icy sluice]

Hannas nice to play as

Don't know about getting Wilhelm tho

[graceful prairie]

i dont buy nazis for boins

[icy sluice]

I got Ernst, he's nice

[tight tusk]

ernst is the best elite so far imo

hes a sick lad

[icy sluice]

There's something satisfying about getting into a sniper battle as Ernst against Hanna

[solid hinge]

Imo all the elites suck compared to what we could get

[icy sluice]

German elites are German while the British elites are not British

Would've liked to get some kind of Commando

[gray glade]

what about the ginger dude

he's not british?

[fathom pebble]

They're allied

Besides good they aren't british

Because northen ireland and france were part of the conflict :p

And good we start to see some resistance stuff

[graceful prairie]

how do people figure out bullet velocity for guns in bf5

[solid hinge]

Imo this alone looks better than any of the current elites https://www.reddit.com/r/BattlefieldCosmetics/comments/bugl7y/fan_concept_german_feldgendarmerie_veteran_band/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=ios_share_flow_optimization&utm_term=control_1

And Joker I’d agree with u if we had any actual british soldiers in the game rn

[solid hinge]

mercury in the trailer had flags going up to G

im getting more convinced they removed a couple places cause they couldn't finish boats in time

[hoary condor]

they could add it on

[solid hinge]

I hope so

It seems weird to have a coastal map with no boats

cant they use the boat cars from firestorm as a stopgap

probably criterion lawyers said no

its always lawyers these days

[echo glen]

Welp, it's too late to get the Boys. pulls out cc

I hope the Mercury ToW will be easy

So I can finally get to level 40

[mystic wolf]

new TOW up

[marble phoenix]

All the release of Mercury did, was make me want more new maps lol

That joint is good

On Conquest the distance between obj C,D,E are a kind of far to Obj A,B

But that’s a small complaint. Shit, calling it a complaint sounds too harsh.

Cause it’s tolerable

Dice think they slick putting it in the map rotation where everybody normally quits. I.E. right after Panzerstorm and Hamada

[mystic wolf]

BFV doesnt seem to want to let me go online

[quasi aspen]

why can’t i buy boys with cc

[mystic wolf]

coz cc is mostly useless

i probably should skip this week's reward just to see if i can even buy it with cc

because i havent missed one tow reward yet and I have 400k and nothing to spendi it on

is it just me? cant play D:

[solid hinge]

What gun do i use for mercury

[mystic wolf]

I keep getting 'you have lost connection to the EA servers' when starting up

[vital lily]

Where's the boys AT rifle gone

i was under the impression we would be able to buy it

with cc

[graceful prairie]

i hope you cant

[solid hinge]

Takes a while for it to be available ssomtimes

[vital lily]

when did

it end

[mystic wolf]

@graceful prairie why

[quasi aspen]

I’m too lazy for the missions and was waiting to buy rn 🤦🏿‍♂️

[mystic wolf]

last week's TOW ended like 15 minutes ago

[graceful prairie]

because everyone will run around with it then

[vital lily]

I've been annoyed alot by the boys AT rifle recently and now I get to be the agressor

Also why do people try to kill tigers with it they do realise they're doing about 5 damage a shot

[mystic wolf]

@graceful prairie ... they already are

good shoot sumthin

[quasi aspen]

trailer shows AT rifle ohk tank 🙃

[mystic wolf]

well this blows.. I wanted to knock over TOW quickly but I can't connect..

[vital lily]

let me connect fine

i didnt even know anything was happening today lol

[mystic wolf]

gah

[vital lily]

whats you lots favourite assault gun

[stable steppe]

are the servers down?

[mystic wolf]

are for me

[vital lily]

not for me :)))

[mystic wolf]

yeah good for you

[vital lily]

tow reward is a knife

german paratrooper knife

i love this game

[mystic wolf]

still cant connect.. feh

just did repair game too

[vital lily]

oh nvm maybe servers are down

tried to join game

failed to connect or whatever

[mystic wolf]

there is a bug thats being worked on, please try the mercury quick match, that seems to work

[mystic wolf]

this happened on matchmakin

[solid hinge]

https://i.imgur.com/POixUCu.png

similar to that?

[mystic wolf]

had that too

EA must have some really messed up workflow

[hybrid dock]

what's new

[solid hinge]

Guys guys guys

[mystic wolf]

i finally got into a game

[solid hinge]

Best fighter planes

[mystic wolf]

sheesh

[solid hinge]

Imo the spitfire VB specced for rockets and the bf 109 g-2 specced for rockets

Spitfire loses out on emergency repair but it gets nitro and maintenance drills in return

[graceful prairie]

Spitfire makes my game lagg on Mercury the just shoot with their guns and everything explodes

[vital lily]

shotgun users 🤢

[solid hinge]

And the g-2 gets an agility spec so it can out-perform other fighters and an air radar

Rockets are basically essential for having any kind of air to ground effect

[rose pilot]

Which spitfire is better and why?

[graceful prairie]

I prefer the m1922

[solid hinge]

imo the VB

[vital lily]

whats the bind for the radio thingy called

for v1s etc

[gray glade]

that feel when i love the mg42 and wanna use it but i have to admit the m1922 is the better mmg 😦

[solid hinge]

the VA gets 8 .303s and a couple of hefty bombs, but it has no bomb reticle to aim with and loses quick repair for smokescreen which is generally considered pretty bad

[hybrid dock]

bf5 give me my MiGs

thx

[solid hinge]

the VB gets either (4 .303s or 2 x 50 cal) and 2 x 20mms which allows for more sustained fire cause you can swap between them when one starts to overheat, and then either an agility spec or nitro + rockets

[hybrid dock]

MiGs would actually be pretty interesting instead of like yaks and such lol

[solid hinge]

full right side VB can do basically anything

[vital lily]

I want russians + japs

[solid hinge]

just suffers from no quick repair and no air radar

[vital lily]

zeros yaks and migs

[opaque cipher]

It’ll be so fast that it cannot effectively strafe and dogfight @hybrid dock

[vital lily]

fw 190s??

[solid hinge]

Have to use nitro to get people off your tail

[hybrid dock]

@opaque cipher wrong MiG

if we don't get il-2 I'll actually commit arson

[solid hinge]

The rockets are really nice though

[vital lily]

2 x 50's or 4x 303's?

[solid hinge]

I used to use the 4 x 303s but they dont lead into the rocket spec

[hybrid dock]

ju88c's butterfly bombs are good on mercury

[solid hinge]

I cant strafe run for the life of me so I've been really enjoying the rockets

also if you hit all the VBs rockets in the rear of a tiger it does 63-68 damage

so it's got neat ground harassment too

[vital lily]

emergency or frield repair

field

[solid hinge]

Umm

I cant remember the spec tree

I gotta load it up

[vital lily]

https://i.imgur.com/pUhM4Rb.jpg

[solid hinge]

I went full right side

[vital lily]

k

i need a fjell only server grr

[solid hinge]

I tried the left side but the rockets make such a difference when you attack the ground

[hybrid dock]

since when did flakpanzer have a machine gunner

[vital lily]

tfw you are sitting in enemy spawn waiting for tanks

[solid hinge]

They added it last patch I think

[vital lily]

poor archer

just spawned in and i killed him

[solid hinge]

it.. seems like a cheap attempt to make the flakpanzer not shit

[hybrid dock]

flakpanzer is good

[solid hinge]

I mean it's good at actually hurting air units

It's shite vs ground units

[hybrid dock]

ah yeah

[solid hinge]

The more dedicated AA

[hybrid dock]

the radar on flakpanzer on mercury takes up the whole map lol

[solid hinge]

It does! I love that radar

I’m so mad at my self because last night I was almost done with the at boy rife challenges but my internet went down for 2 hours so I couldn’t do it

[hybrid dock]

I feel like they upped the AA damage towards planes or maybe I'm just dumb

[cosmic steeple]

are battlefield servers down for oceanic?

[graceful prairie]

your internet did a good thing

[solid hinge]

Why

[graceful prairie]

because one less boys is a good thing

[solid hinge]

I've certainly been feeling like AA are kicking my ass in planes more

But isn’t it a really good gun

[mystic wolf]

@cosmic steeple nah im ingame

[hybrid dock]

uh I love my boys

[mystic wolf]

@cosmic steeple keep tryin

[solid hinge]

I think multiple people are using the AA now instead of the occasional guy so the damage is higher

[vital lily]

ffs

[solid hinge]

The boys is definitely fun to use

[vital lily]

such a dumb system

[hybrid dock]

the 4k lb bomb is basically worthless

[cosmic steeple]

@mystic wolf ok thanks

[vital lily]

they just crash so you dont get a kil

[graceful prairie]

did aa got buffed?

[solid hinge]

the crashing is.. lame

[hybrid dock]

it's been a thing in bf since forever

at least since bf3

[solid hinge]

The 4k lb bomb is pretty shit, but if you combine it with a couple cannon shells it usually kills any tank

Works well as a tank hunter

[hybrid dock]

dude one fell on my flakpanzer and it did like 28 damage

[solid hinge]

....I'm pretty convinced every explosive in the game just has a chance to not hurt people properly

[hybrid dock]

they nerfed it too hard

[hoary condor]

i haven't noticed the difference

Piat still kills

[hybrid dock]

it was good at dislodging enemy defenses

now it just destroys a sandbag

[solid hinge]

It was a bit much at full strength though

You didnt even need to aim

but now it sucks which isnt.. a nice alternative

[hybrid dock]

I got lucky the other day and threaded the needle on twisted steel bridge

and killed a tank

and killed like 3 other guys near it

[solid hinge]

[hybrid dock]

it was an epic gamer moment tbh

[solid hinge]

I like twisted steel flying

[hybrid dock]

only one firestorm node on this week's tow

yeet

[vital lily]

eugh i hate the scum of this game

[solid hinge]

I said a lot about me being mad yesterday but talking about planes has cheered me up again

[vital lily]

crash so you dont get a kill

[solid hinge]

Apart from that awful mechanic

if you crash into something then the last person who shot you should get the kill

same if they bail out of bounds

[hybrid dock]

sometimes I just loose control and crash

I don't mean too

[solid hinge]

That's another reason I think it's fair to give the person tailing you the kill

[vital lily]

these guys clearly mean too

[solid hinge]

I've tried risky shit to get people off my back and ended up crashing and like.. it's their fault I crashed so they should get the kill

People who bail out miles away from the infantry fights as well

People jump out like 300 metres away from the actual mountain on fjell

like

you've just killed yourself

and the person shooting gets nothing for it

maybe a +45 for damage or whatever

[graceful prairie]

why do people miss frontlines

[solid hinge]

It was a 32 player mode with only one objective so even the dumbest teammates will head towards it

[graceful prairie]

not when i played it

[solid hinge]

And the fewer number of players meant that an individual could have more of an effect on the outcome

[vital lily]

swear every other battlefield game you got the kill

but not here

[solid hinge]

yeah I really underestimate peoples ability to not play the objective sometimes

Hamada frontlines is the worst for it but hamada frontlines was genuinely in every way a 1/10 experience

[vital lily]

where tf the boys rifle

can i just not aim with planes

or are 2x hispanos crap

[soft storm]

Just get a fast tank

And backcap

I mean like, sit on the point and waif for your team to cap the previous objective

[gray glade]

@vital lily what you mean where, you dont have it unlocked?

[vital lily]

can you still c4 jeep like in BF3 i've never tried it since

@gray glade i mean i thought we could buy it with CC like all the others

[gray glade]

yeah you will

at least that is what they always do, but sometimes it takes a day or so

[solid hinge]

The Hispanos are 20mm cannons, so they do mad damage but they're much slower than normal bullets

[soft storm]

You mean

They used to do mad damage

They nerfed them hard with the mosquito

[solid hinge]

touchè

The 4 hispanos are still the best! They're just.. not as decimating as they used to be

Once you level the VB up once you'll get those new guns

That helps a LOT

[vital lily]

mg 17's seem like miniguns lmao but they're shit on their onw

own

fire rate and sound is ammusing

i want zeros in this game

[idle breach]

would have that...

or Ki-43

[vital lily]

hope more eastern stuff gets released

russian/japan

[mystic wolf]

wouldnt be ww2 without the USSR

[idle breach]

tru

e\

[vital lily]

wish i could use different planes/tanks on the test field

like bf 109

[soft storm]

But that would require dice to figure out how to do that

[idle breach]

yeah..

spirits of frostbite don't like that

[solid hinge]

Should i get any elites

[idle breach]

if you like

elves of frostbite need you to spend some boins anyway

I do my tribute to frosbite spirits by buying epic skins though.

it should be enough

[nocturne swallow]

To me, the elites are priority targets. I like watching Seamus die

[solid hinge]

Lmao

[nocturne swallow]

Lol

[solid hinge]

What should i put on my assault for mercury

[idle breach]

guns or skins

[vital lily]

i pre ordered the game but they didnt tell me my payment failed until launch lmfao

so i bought it like months after release

[idle breach]

ahyeah

me too

and I still got my bonus for preorder

lol

[vital lily]

what thi heck

i didnt

[idle breach]

i was angry like

[vital lily]

actually

[idle breach]

why can't I launch the fucking game I already downloaded and

[vital lily]

customer support

told me to message them

when i buy the game

[idle breach]

figured out the purchase was failed

[vital lily]

for pre order bonuses

[idle breach]

more likely the payment is failed

classic origin

[vital lily]

im guessing piat does more damage than panzerffaust?

[idle breach]

yeah

more 'inconsistent' damage

[soft storm]

Gewehr 43 is excellent on like every map

[vital lily]

m1a1

i love it

[soft storm]

If you aren’t going positive with the Gewehr 43 you’re doing something wrong

[lunar plover]

It seems like you cant buy the boys at rifle

[green elm]

...yet, hopefully

[idle breach]

if any of your soldiers don't cover more than 30% of the face with cosmetics you're doing something wrong

[lunar plover]

if you don't wear a gas mask even if the air is perfectly fine dont talk to me

[idle breach]

my soldiers have own backstories but they're all kinda insecure about their looks so

I give them all masks and things

[vital lily]

hey guys just me waiting for a battlefield style vr game

[trim token]

Mercury sucks holy shit

[vital lily]

i fucking love mercury

althought the backcaps are annoying

[trim token]

I spent £80 on a game that takes away my favourite modes and takes 6 months for a crap map..

Wtf

[vital lily]

i spent like £15 does fortnite dance

[idle breach]

haha

most of the bf players looks like

they're not the veteran on ASIAN MMO

charge $10 for a skin? what generous devs do that

[vital lily]

me rocking default solider skins because cba to earn

[trim token]

Any bf game made by dice Stockholm from now on I ain’t buying

[jagged nexus]

why are there even anti air tanks in bfv?

[icy sluice]

BC3 by Stockholm

[trim token]

£10 for a skin in a full price game? Wtf is this company nowadays

[idle breach]

aa tanks

[solid hinge]

Skin for mh assault on mercury

[idle breach]

were viable...

[icy sluice]

It is a skin lol

[jagged nexus]

they get bombed as soon as they spawn

[idle breach]

more like killing everything

[jagged nexus]

by these fucking overpowert bombers

[idle breach]

evading bombers are not that hard

[solid hinge]

Bombers boring

[vital lily]

Last Tiger is the best tiger skin

[icy sluice]

Just move perpendicular

[trim token]

“Let’s nerf guns that don’t need nerfing” Leaves G43 in OP stay for whole lifecycle

[solid hinge]

Fighters with bombs better

[trim token]

They want bfv to die

[icy sluice]

I love my Blenheim

[idle breach]

just don't line up with bombers and it's fine

[icy sluice]

Ironically, G43 is underused

[vital lily]

I always do super good in the tiger

[solid hinge]

AA tanks can bug fighters

[idle breach]

yeah

or just

[solid hinge]

ideally the fighters would be killing bombers

Is g43 best assault gun?

[vital lily]

m1a1 better than g43?

[soft storm]

The G43 is like almost OP

[idle breach]

position someplace bombers can't hit

[solid hinge]

g43 has a 3 shot kill at any range

300rpm, 10 mag with clip reloads

11 if you take detach mag

So best semi auto?

Its.. arguable

Did M1a1 get more recoil? Last time I used it it was super accurate

[idle breach]

i think g1-5 is still the best

[solid hinge]

It's best for dunking on snipers

But 300rpm 3 shot kill loses at close range to a lot of guns

Whats best for close and long range

Little recoil

[vital lily]

Where are the mastery assignments for gold plated guns

[idle breach]

from closest to longest,
M1907 - stg1-5 - stg44 - Ribey
M1A1 - G1-5 - Turner / MAS44 - G43 - Selb 1916

I think

Ag m/42 is kinda special gun

[solid hinge]

?

[green elm]

imagine getting hit by filthy ground plebs

[idle breach]

G1-5 is just god in overall

[green elm]

does agm do anything special?

[vital lily]

think how video games aim

in the middle

on the chest

lmao

[solid hinge]

agm is a 4 shot kill at any range with 450 rpm and a 10 mag

[idle breach]

quick tap and little spare ammo

[green elm]

ew 4 shot

[solid hinge]

but that also means it's a 2 shot headshot kill at any range

[idle breach]

yeah

[vital lily]

how do i get to the mastery assignment

[solid hinge]

2 shot headshot with 450 rpm is essentially instant

[idle breach]

and very accurate, and has a 2x scope.

niche.

[green elm]

sick

[idle breach]

real dream gun for people who don't really fight with many enemies, cutting enemy one by one

and keep their ammo full

[solid hinge]

Do i use assault rifles or semi autod

[idle breach]

and you gotta do 450 click per minute.

[vital lily]

@solid hinge just use what you do best with

[solid hinge]

Nerkfnrnrjdidjdn idk

I never reslly usd assault

[idle breach]

can you do quick tap

[green elm]

semiautos are nice but idk hosing someone down with a 1907 is pretty tasty

[solid hinge]

Semi autos are generally considered the best weapon type in the game

[green elm]

semiautos aren’t tasty like spray weapons

[soft storm]

Let’s be real most people get dunked on by the hipfire route on the G43

[idle breach]

if you prefer and used to catch enemies from close range, stg1-5 or M1907 is naturally good

[soft storm]

They don’t expect it and I like it

[idle breach]

if you can quick tap M1A1 is also good

if you prefer taking enemies from some range you should go like ribey, stg44, any other semis

[solid hinge]

Im either gonna use the stg1-5 or stg44 fkr assault rifles

[echo glen]

Semi autos are generally better for picking off single targets

ARs are good for closer engagements

[idle breach]

it's kinda all about you preferrred playstyle

no sence in doing close quarter charge all day and bring some 'good in range and viable in close quarter' gun when you can just have close quarter shredder

[solid hinge]

I like picking off snipers but when i meet an enemy upclose i need to kill him

[green elm]

@echo glen you can’t hose people down up close with a semi tbh

[idle breach]

just

use every gun till hit lvl 20 and

use g1-5

it's versatile as fuck

[green elm]

in a pinch spamming the trigger with a semiauto has a decent percentage of keeping you alive tbh

[idle breach]

only downside is shitty ironsight

and overall ugliness

[solid hinge]

Which soghts do i use

[green elm]

yeah it’s such an unaesthetic gun

[idle breach]

nydar or aperture or 3x eveything is viable

iron sight is pretty shitty but if you get used to it it's not terrible

just a bit THICC

[solid hinge]

Aperature? Are you crazy

g1-5 is the best semi for close range but its noticeably worse at range

Aperature is gross

higher damage drop off than the rest, but it has a 30 mag so you can just dump it and still kill stuff

Just takes a lil longer

[idle breach]

if aim is pretty good other semis do better but

g1-5 is kinda like

"fuck my aim I got 20 rounds more"

[green elm]

g1-5 is way better than selby 1916 and that makes me angry

[idle breach]

gun

[solid hinge]

What are some good tanks and planes for both allies and axis

[vital lily]

why is sniping so damn easy in this game

i do so well

idek why

couldnt do this in bf3/4

[solid hinge]

I dont like using bombers are there any good fighteds with a few payloads

[idle breach]

kinda like lewis doing "oh sorry I just threw 20 rounds on a tree next to you, I still got 70 rounds left"

both heavy tanks are good, Valentine normie is good

[green elm]

bf3 and 4 sniping is kind of hard

[solid hinge]

Tiger is iconic but too slow

[green elm]

bc the maps are so big vertically and otherwise

[solid hinge]

Panzer is nice but easily destroyed

[vital lily]

tiger is good

i do great in it

just don't play thinking you're invincible

[idle breach]

mosquito FB with rockets and bombs are real fuckplane

[vital lily]

or 6 assault classes will be on ur ass

[idle breach]

far better than shitty 6pounder

[solid hinge]

It loses out on anti air though

[idle breach]

it has increased speed so

takes longer time taking out planes but better chance in not dying by other planes

and you can just instakill bombers with rockets

[solid hinge]

What’s the best sniper besides the boys

[idle breach]

Krag in range, SMLE for up close

[solid hinge]

Depends on what you're looking for in a sniper

[idle breach]

Ross for iron sighted bayonet charging psychopathfinder

[solid hinge]

Love it when I go against a whole group of G43s

Totally not gonna die

[idle breach]

for SLR ZH for overall or ranged, RSC for bayonet charging hipfire sniping psychopathfinder

[stoic breach]

SECTOR TAKEN WITH 120 TICKETS

[vital lily]

can you buy company coins

[solid hinge]

Or bolt action because skill

[idle breach]

pick bolt action, miss a round, bayonet charge shouting TRY EVADING THIS

[solid hinge]

I main kar98 and I pity people that use OP shit and still lose to me

[vital lily]

playing bfv < only playing firestorm as if thats the only mode

[solid hinge]

Lmao

[vital lily]

i remember getting c4 jeep 2x kill on 2x abrams

that was nice

BF3

[solid hinge]

Jihadi jeep

[stoic breach]

SECTOR 3

OH MY GOD

[royal gull]

Jihad Jeep, now that's a term I haven't heard in a long time

[stoic breach]

Holy shit

Sector 3 is way better than Sector 1 and 2

[solid hinge]

What map

Sector 3 and 4 are great in mercury breakthrough

The first two sectors arent

[stoic breach]

mercury breakthrough

[solid hinge]

The first especially

First sector is fucking awful

[ancient ocean]

Has the new game mode come out yet?

[solid hinge]

Never been in that sector my teams too good at defending

No new game mode

just the same 5

with the 5th one being a mishmash of airborne and other modes

so effectively 4

[ancient ocean]

I thought a new game mode was supposed to come out.

[solid hinge]

Wait what

I want airborne exclusively

So many 1 man squads

Is there grand ops for mercury yet

[ancient ocean]

What's this week's ToW?

[solid hinge]

Knife

Grand ops for mercury comes out with the next map

This week is mercury

This weeks tow reward is a melee weapon

[ancient ocean]

Oof

[solid hinge]

Do i use the bf109 or stuka?

[ancient ocean]

Stuka blyat

[stoic breach]

stuka

[solid hinge]

For bomving and fighting

[vital lily]

https://i.imgur.com/wzzR2XS.jpg

smh

[sly vault]

Playing this game has become more a chore than fun recently...

[solid hinge]

B2 stuka gets incredible powerful cannons that can damage tanks and planes

B1 stuka gets a big ole bomb

but b2 stuka gets mines instead of bombs and b1 stuka has shit guns

[vital lily]

for me its generally fun

unless i get into a game

full of toxic tryhards

crashing their planes so you dont get fills

kills

rolling in ten man squads with the same clan tag

[mystic wolf]

2 hrs to finish TOW including the server downtime weirdness.. not bad

[stoic breach]

Alright

Sector 3 and 4 are great

Sector 1 and 2 are unforgivably bad

[mystic wolf]

I prefer 1 and 2..

[solid hinge]

What about bf109 g6

[mystic wolf]

4 is over really fast every time

[stoic breach]

Well thats the thing

They wouldnt be hard to balance

[sly vault]

Tell that to japanese tryhards... the worst breed of all

[stoic breach]

Literally make the capture areas bigger and stop defenders from accessing the hill in sector 1

Easy balance

[sly vault]

Alright fuck this game I’m done

[idle breach]

we should scout Todd Howard for next battlefield game

[ancient ocean]

Will he be the announcer voice?

[solid hinge]

bf 109 can ground pound with mingenschoss, but it loses out on plane damage with it and mingenschoss isnt very good tbh

they arent in the game yet kat

[idle breach]

we need

16 times the detail

for next bf game

[solid hinge]

So stuka is better than bf109

Good graphics don’t make good games

[idle breach]

uh..

B-1 is shit

B-2 is pretty neat

[solid hinge]

I dont really want bombs

[idle breach]

G-2 and G-6 are both fine.

[solid hinge]

Cannons wiuld be nice

[idle breach]

B-2 is good but kinda bitch for grinding

[solid hinge]

Do they have stuka sorens??

[wild sphinx]

i actual liked bf1

[idle breach]

B-2 has

[solid hinge]

Stuka is a heavy fighter/dive bomber while the bf 109 is a pure fighter

[idle breach]

both has, common tree don't go to disable the sirens.

[solid hinge]

bf 109 g-2 is my favourite fighter tbh

No i mean so bf109s have sirens

The b2 stuka cannons are REALLY good but they are hard to hit infantry with

and fighters

[idle breach]

aldaksd

[sacred junco]

there was a guy who would stall behind plane spawns with the b2

and kill as I spawn in

it was very frustrating

[mystic wolf]

yeah ive seen that.. disgusting loserish gameplay

[solid hinge]

yeah

sweaty

[mystic wolf]

like if i was admin on a server that'd be instaban

[soft storm]

Good thing you aren’t an admin then

[opaque cipher]
