I enjoy frontlines cause you fight on parts of the map you don't normally use

It's fun!

the river part essentially allows the bridge to be used as a flanking maneuver

[sacred junco]

Twisted Steel domination is a good example

the wrecked Sturmtiger as the center point

is something you never really have

I can see Hamada working for 64 frontlines

[solid hinge]

hamada and panzerstorm would be epic

for 64p frontlines with no boundaries

[vestal locust]

What is this Frontlines you talk about?

[solid hinge]

You would fix the issues of conquest being too convoluted and breakthrough being cramped

Tank battles would be garunteed because they're all fighting for one point

and then you'd have moments where the army crosses

[vestal locust]

Reading your name and I just wonder... Anyone try landing their plane on the broken Runway in the new map?

[solid hinge]

it's fairly hard

the new planes don't land well because in Battlefield 3 and 4 it was fairly easy to do so

probably has to do with BF3 / 4 jets being jump jets I think?

[vestal locust]

I tried on the Hamada map once, but with it being very.... er short.. the experience was as well

[solid hinge]

Too short for Hamada honestly

you can try it on panzerstorm though

it's fun too, just landing and seeing the planes above and the tanks in the distance

But yeah i hope that that's what frontlines becomes

[tidal magnet]

Wish I could afford bf5, wanna explore my own city ingame so bad (rotterdam) 😄.

Anyone happens to have a spare key or trial? I'd appreciate it so much you have no idea

[dense bone]

@tidal magnet

sorry =\

[tidal magnet]

Ah no need to apolagise, thanks a ton anyway man appreciate it

gameplay looks so solid too

[sterile ledge]

@tidal magnet pc? Or ps4

[tidal magnet]

PC

[sterile ledge]

Damn if u were on ps4 i couldve got u an account with the game

[tidal magnet]

Ah bummer, thanks anyway man really appreciate the genorisity

generosity*

[sterile ledge]

Its alright

[gray glade]

indeed

i cant count the number of times we take an objective and im the only one that stays

i like the 2 round breakthrough setup

[sleek solstice]

My battlefield V is acting weird
im playing and it stutters on ultra
but when i change my options to lowest
it stutters even worse

[gray glade]

its nice to play both defense and attack

[sleek solstice]

Does BFV always stutter at the beginning because of map loading?

[gray glade]

@sleek solstice i've seen more ppl mention that

[main urchin]

hey guys im new here where i can get help

[sterile ledge]

Did you guys know that Erwin Rommel was a respected general by the allies

[main urchin]

i need help with a morse code

[sterile ledge]

Check youtube

Or some website that decode morse codes

[main urchin]

but i play in ps4 and i need the dog tag A beggining

And i dont know how to do the morse code with a ps4

[sterile ledge]

I wouldnt be of much help here sorry

But im sure youtube is going to help you with what you need.

[sleek solstice]

I just fell off the stairs by a stutter and died

[frail pine]

Anyone will play With me Battlefield Heroes?

[icy sluice]

I've been having a lot of fun as a Recon lately.

[hoary condor]

Dies because someone is camping in the fire .. love firestorm

Killed two with my V1 as I died 😂

[sleek solstice]

i cant play firestorm for some reason it never searches a game for me

is it because not much people play right now or what?

[icy sluice]

Also, got the best hint the game could offer me.

[sleek solstice]

damn u cant edit messages

[icy sluice]

You should be able to.

[sleek solstice]

i edited and it got deleted

they dont allow spoilers

oh thats what it was

[strong parrot]

what did you type that was spoiler related lol

[hazy wasp]

So Bombers are basically just fighters again

[formal valve]

So according to reddit

I’m a coward for leaving my almost destroyed planes when I’m being shot Up

[solid hinge]

you

[formal valve]

Look buddy

[native mural]

You are

[formal valve]

If I can escape an impossible situation and go be useful somewhere else without dying, I’m doing that

[native mural]

Especially if you do it outside the normal map

[formal valve]

No I do it inside

[native mural]

Thats at least somewhat reasonable

[formal valve]

I jump out usually over a objective my team is trying to capture so I can join the fight

At least try to fire my flare before dying

[solid hinge]

are

go down with your plane with PRIDE

what the hell is a lol eune

[last tusk]

Sup guys, I literally just joined

[native mural]

Sup you

[icy sluice]

I like that pilots get flares

And before someone points it out, yes, I know Battlefield 1 Pilots had them too

[formal valve]

I wish they’d be customizable

[charred heron]

Surprised that pilots don't have a Drilling by default

[formal valve]

They should have access to the Drilling, some bolt action carbine, the pistol carbine P08, and maybe an assault weapon

[flint helm]

I usually go down with my plane

[formal valve]

And the Sten

[flint helm]

Mainly because it takes so fking long to jump out that I die anyway

[formal valve]

I try to fly upwards around 20 health and then jump

[flint helm]

I've always found in battlefield games that there's really pro pilots, I usually die pretty fast

[formal valve]

So basically my strat is flying to the place I want to jump, start flying upwards above that place and then jump out

[flint helm]

Oh you use the planes as taxis?

Smh

[formal valve]

If I’m lucky, I’ve slowed down enough to where the attacking plane gets caught on mine

No

@flint helm that’s my start for escaping a damaged plane

That’s being chased

[flint helm]

Lol yeah my main tactic now when I'm being chased is instantly slowing down so the chasing plane crashes into me

[formal valve]

Backwards Kamakaize

[flint helm]

Everytime

Or slowing down and making a sharp turn so they overshoot and lose me

[formal valve]

[flint helm]

Top tips

Going faster and looping and spinning doesn't do much

[charred heron]

Fly bomber, gun down Mosquitos as your own backgunner

[flint helm]

They can still following

[charred heron]

[formal valve]

I do have respect for pilots though who are really good

I try to congratulate a really good one when I see him

[flint helm]

Yeah Ive never mastered it

[solid hinge]

i love flying

it's kinda hard enjoying it when the SPAWNS ARE BUGGED

[flint helm]

They add a lot to the game too, it's nice seeing one fly really close to the bridge etc

[solid hinge]

they dont add shit

[formal valve]

I’ve mastered flying through the bridge

[solid hinge]

you're just playing reeooooow with other idiot pilots

[flint helm]

They don't add anything?

Playing as a ground trooper it looks cool is what I mean

So I appreciate the pilots above doing a good job

[solid hinge]

sooo

can you spot for us?

[formal valve]

And terrifying when a stuka is diving for you

[solid hinge]

part of the reason it's so hard doing well is because NO ONE FUCKING SPOTS

so instead im forced to bomb/strafe random shit over and over hoping i get anything

[flint helm]

I was just talking about the overal feel and coolness of the game with planes jeesh

[solid hinge]

then there's all the bugs

[formal valve]

You cant really spit

It’s more pinging

[solid hinge]

the weird physics

[charred heron]

a spitting Spitfire

Weird stuff

[formal valve]

[solid hinge]

you can spot with flares

flares are so crucial for pilots

[flint helm]

I look at the mini map and judge where enemies are and use my eyes to gauge, I've never really relied on spotting..m

[charred heron]

Honestly, a 37mm Stuka is the best fighter in the game

[solid hinge]

they can easily be the difference between a 0 kill bombing run and a 5 man

[charred heron]

"There's a bomber? Not anymore"

[solid hinge]

oh yeah and there's the awful plane balance

[formal valve]

I wonder if since the Spitfire was given Pacific game logic, we will see the USAFs Spitfire Varitsnt

[solid hinge]

flying just isnt rewarding in this game

[flint helm]

I love the flying mechanics

The planes feel nice

[formal valve]

Same

I like Stukas

I don’t take the sirens off

[flint helm]

But I can't say that planes add much to the game apart from a big bomb run clearing enemies. I think Dice backpedalled with planes due to the last game having an overuse of bombers

[formal valve]

Muromets flashbacks

[solid hinge]

not bombers

[flint helm]

Is that the name of the bf1 bombers idek

[solid hinge]

attack planes

[flint helm]

Sorry attack planes dropping bombs

They were the worst

[formal valve]

@flint helm it’s the heavy bomber from the Russian dlc

[strong parrot]

Lool drunkzz nerfing the min distance between 2 AP mines to 3.6m

[flint helm]

The infantry bombs that the attack planes could drop were the worst on the Swedish mountain map

I've noticed that anti tank weapons aren't very strong in bfv

I meant anti planes*

[weak jolt]

Monte Grappa yeah

[charred heron]

Monte Grappa was only really bareable when you made it to one of the AA guns on B or D

And if you were decent, you could swipe the entire air clean

Honestly

[fathom pebble]

@strong parrot Dont please

[strong parrot]

Must report that to EA then

[solid hinge]

Monte grappa was pretty cool with the cannons I guess

fuck caporetto tho

[silver niche]

Its sad that in 4 years ea is going to stop on this game and go to another game

I love the current one

[formal valve]

Lmao. I’m being called a noob by that same guy on Reddit for not being able to escape two spitfires and a Valentine AA while in a stuka, and choosing to jump out over die pointlessly

He’s in the “top 0.1%”

Doubt it because of his childlike name calling

[silver niche]

Lmao thats pretty hard to escape

[formal valve]

Lmao

[molten vortex]

the aa is pretty much impossible to escape

the tank i mean

[formal valve]

[silver niche]

You can take down AA’s easily with bomber but with a fighter.. heh good luck shooting it down

[molten vortex]

exactly

just finished playing there was an aa tank that didn't get destroyed until the game was over

no one simply got close enough to it to kill it

and he kept taking down our planes

[silver niche]

But i mean if your accurate on planes you can shoot him but not the aa gun which will be controlled by the same person you just killed sadly

[molten vortex]

also breakthrough on mercury is broken it's borderline impossible to win as offense

[strong parrot]

god the 3x scope on the boys is fucking me over hard with distances

missing a dude 5x in a row...legit what the fuck is going on

[molten vortex]

getting the frontline achievement is not possible now thanks ea

[silver niche]

Bmac your avatar makes me think thats a for honor emblem

[strong parrot]

probably because it is

[silver niche]

oH

@molten vortex unless the other team sucks super bad

[molten vortex]

sputnik i like your profile pic is that an iron giant with a commie hat

[silver niche]

Yes

[molten vortex]

im russian btw

[silver niche]

But thats just the head

Its holding a vodka and everything

[molten vortex]

im unironically communist

[silver niche]

Right u forgot

I just speaker russian forgiv pls

[molten vortex]

русские вперед

[silver niche]

[molten vortex]

obviously bf4 is the best bf game

i really really wanna come back but there's only tryhards at this point

so imma just ruin my already terrible kd

hehe

[midnight nimbus]

@strong parrot AP mine changes aren't a nerf btw

[strong parrot]

nerfing the distance you can set them from each other

[main oracle]

Big

[strong parrot]

not a damage hit

[midnight nimbus]

it's effectively a side grade

that's not all of the changes

just one of the changes

[strong parrot]

SeCreT ChanGe NoTeS

[midnight nimbus]

bringing mines closer to what they were in BF1

you can't stack them anymore

[formal valve]

https://www.reddit.com/r/BattlefieldV/comments/bvdox9/battlefield_v_weekly_debrief_may_31_mercury_new/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app

YOOOO

[midnight nimbus]

instead of stacking two mines together for one strong mine, why not have two strong mines in the first place? 🤔

[molten vortex]

hey anyone here plays on ps4 just want to ask a question

[narrow moss]

this new map

is actually terrible

[strong parrot]

yup..they fucked it up in conq

[narrow moss]

well, good for conquest, terrible for breakthrough

no i like conquest on it

[strong parrot]

its too small

[narrow moss]

yee u got a lot of action

[strong parrot]

they need to expand the B point to where the A point is on breakthrough

[midnight nimbus]

I heard it's really campy on Breakthrough

[narrow moss]

but for breakthrough, its just campers area

[strong parrot]

and put the D point over where the ruins point is

[molten vortex]

breakthrough is unplayable

[narrow moss]

its campers heaven lol

u have like 20 snipers up on that range over a

[molten vortex]

winning as offence is impossible pretty much

[autumn monolith]

MAX RANK INCREASE EVERYONE ITS FINALLY HAPPENING

[molten vortex]

yeah i just took the 1922 and laid down and started getting them kills

[formal valve]

Read this lads

https://www.reddit.com/r/BattlefieldV/comments/bvdox9/battlefield_v_weekly_debrief_may_31_mercury_new/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app

Next week we’re getting

A Marita trailer, Chapter 4 trailer, Chapter 4/5 roadmap and Livestream for EA play

[autumn monolith]

MAX RANK INCREASE IS HAPPENING I REPEAT

[molten vortex]

breakthrough shouldn't be available on mercury big facts

[strong parrot]

you posted that already and its in #game-news

[molten vortex]

im just hoping for new maps i dont really care about anything else

[strong parrot]

yeah....max rank is meaningless

[molten vortex]

bf5 already has plenty of guns

[autumn monolith]

all of the guns are the same

[molten vortex]

especially medic guns

they even look practically the same

hey btw is firestorm just as dead on ps4 as it is on xbox

[autumn monolith]

crossplay is needed on that

[molten vortex]

took me 3 minutes to get into a game

yeah right you got a point

codmw is going to have crossplay im pretty sure

[autumn monolith]

yeah but why with pc?

[molten vortex]

whatcha mean my man

[cinder sundial]

Firestorm is not dead on Xbox

[molten vortex]

yes it is

[cinder sundial]

Nah

[molten vortex]

takes 2-3 minutes to get into a game how is that not dead

[autumn monolith]

consoles and pc should never crossplay in the same lobby because a keyboard and mouse is much more precise than an anolog controller

[cinder sundial]

Lmao

[molten vortex]

obviously

[cinder sundial]

Since when is a 2 minute queue dead?

[molten vortex]

conquest takes like 20 seconds

2 minutes is dead compared to 20

and yeah firestorm is as alive as overwatch at this point no cap lmao

[cinder sundial]

Just because the majority of players are in one game mode doesn't mean the other is dead

[molten vortex]

yeah but it's like 90/10 ratio

where 90 is conquest

[cinder sundial]

Like how they removed frontlines. It was the only game mode I played and never had an issue finding a game

[molten vortex]

i wanted to get an achievement but i failed apparently

dam rip in peace my 50G

[cinder sundial]

...right

[strong parrot]

gotta love how the top ToW track this week has dealing dmg while in a plane and then locks 2 easy assignments behind that

rip cant get kills with the german guns but i can do it with the brit ones

[molten vortex]

what do you mean

you mean after dealing 200 damage with a plane you cannot complete other assignments?

[strong parrot]

I mean that would require me getting into a plane and dealing damage and because im not a low life, i dont do that

[molten vortex]

thats hella easy tho why wouldn't you

took me like a minute destroyed an enemy mosquito and that was it

[strong parrot]

because fuck planes

[molten vortex]

i love planes

[narrow moss]

i like planes until i die from a fucking fighter

then it pisses me off

[molten vortex]

i was a fairly good pilot at bf1 but bf5 is much harder in that regard

i absolutely sucked at flying in bf4

dem planes were just too fast

[midnight nimbus]

for everyone complaining about crossplay, MW does it right, and it's 100% how I wish BF could do it

they have mouse and keyboard lobbies

[molten vortex]

unless you got a keyboard/mouse adapter ur obviously at a disadvantage

[icy sluice]

They would need to kinda do it how Fortnite does it

Isn't there like an option to disable or enable crossplay in that game?
From what I recall, yes.

[midnight nimbus]

you also have to join in on a PC player

if you're on console

[icy sluice]

PS4 allows you to connect a KB+M directly into it and play Fortnite but Fortnite detects it and puts you with only PC players

So you're essentially playing on a shit PC 👀

[molten vortex]

xbox allows that too

[icy sluice]

Before someone says "Xbox player dissing PS4!"
It's a console, it's automatically inferior to most PC players on that game.

[molten vortex]

they added the feature recently

[icy sluice]

Xbox does not allow a mouse I don't think.

[molten vortex]

it does

it also allows it in minecraft

and metro exodus

and a bunch of other titles

[icy sluice]

I'll have to look into that again. I only recall there being an option to use the uhh... shitty Microsoft Edge browser

[molten vortex]

checked it for myself. it works

nah actually mouse doesnt work at Edge

[icy sluice]

Well... the settings say that using a mouse will allow you to use it there.... in Mouse Settings

Now, if only consoles could detect controller 'enhancers' or 'external modifiers' that will inject scripts or allow you to use KB+M like Xim or Cronusmax

They could but the hardware of these things were updated so they just bypass anyways

iirc, it lasted under a WEEK.

[molten vortex]

i dont think mouse and keyboard should be supported in each game

i dont know that's just not right

i enjoy my controller why tf would i want to change it for something else

[icy sluice]

If it's supported, then there has to be some kind of separation

[molten vortex]

right

[midnight nimbus]

if you have a mkb plugged in, just allow console players to play with PC players

ez

having it work vice versa would be what's truly interesting

letting PC players with controllers play with their friends on console

while preventing them from using mkb input in game

[molten vortex]

pc has superior frame rates

[midnight nimbus]

frame rates aren't the issue

who cares

[icy sluice]

I am mostly talking about external/3rd party devices disguising a KB+M as a controller

[midnight nimbus]

and PCs don't always have better frame rates

[icy sluice]

It depends on the port and on the system

[molten vortex]

right but in most cases they do

well dayz runs at 10fps on xbox

[icy sluice]

Fucking YIKES my dawg

[molten vortex]

inside cities that is

[icy sluice]

That sounds worse than Dark Souls Xbox 360 Blighttown

[midnight nimbus]

input is really the only issue with crossplay

[molten vortex]

hell yeah i love blighttown on the 360

it just doesnt feel right in the remastered version

[icy sluice]

Gotta love slideshow frame rate

[molten vortex]

cos the framerate there is too good

[icy sluice]

It adds to the hard difficulty of Dark Souls!

Back to #battlefield-legacy-titles chat tho

[molten vortex]

blighttown was really really enjoyable nonetheless

yeah right whatever you say chief

so what's your first bf game

that question is asked towards everyone that is online

[icy sluice]

1942

[molten vortex]

good stuff

[icy sluice]

I still have the collection

I like that the cases get way too big to fit more discs

[strong parrot]

if your first BF game wasnt 1942 you arent a real fan 😤

[molten vortex]

mine was bc2

i didnt really play it too much

[icy sluice]

If your first BF game wasn't Codename Eagle, then you aren't a fan

[molten vortex]

my first real bf game was bf4

im a zoomer as u can see

hehe

[icy sluice]

BC2 was and forever will be my least favorite Battlefield.... Multiplayer wise

[molten vortex]

i mean bc is still the best one multiplayer wise

the destruction is just

splendid

[midnight nimbus]

first BF i cared about was BF3

[icy sluice]

Destruction I didn't mind but then there would be no cover in a lot of areas

Literally just open fields because people thought it looked cool

[midnight nimbus]

even though i dislike the game, BC2 maps and modes being well designed around each other is great

[icy sluice]

It DID but come on! it was like fighting in GM_FlatGrass before it got that big stucture

[molten vortex]

hehe yeah them garry's mode references

[midnight nimbus]

and ridiculous amounts of destruction is such a bad meme

[molten vortex]

damn my head just doesnt work right i cannot put sentences together

[icy sluice]

Like you can have a good amount of destruction but uhh... Fortifications is the right way to go too

[molten vortex]

right i really like fortifications

[midnight nimbus]

build speed is too slow imo

[icy sluice]

Yes, I get it you're just placing down fortifications but it's a lot better than fighting in nothing

[midnight nimbus]

I honestly think they should come prebuilt

[icy sluice]

I like where it is and it gives an incentive to play Support

[midnight nimbus]

and you can rebuild them as they break

[molten vortex]

i often just spawn in as a support and build the objective fully

[midnight nimbus]

on modes like breakthrough, building the initial fortifications is just busywork

[icy sluice]

Fortress, I saw a lot of supports building

On Breakthrough if you get a few supports building, even just 3, it makes a difference

But no one is smart

[sacred junco]

man mercury cq is so restrictive

[molten vortex]

yeah people only start building things when you're already doing it

mercury's trash

[sacred junco]

its so easy for a bad team to get spawn locked

a is too far from e

[molten vortex]

they shoulda remove it and work on it for a few more months

[sacred junco]

so everyone just goes c

[icy sluice]

If every class actually did what their role is really intended to DO, then gameplay is really intense, everyone is getting stuff done and boom de yada everyone is having fun

When someone is sniping in the edge, it angers both teams who actually want to win

"Fuck this sniper" says both teams
Victims hate dying that way and the team of the Attacker wants them to do just SOMETHING.

[molten vortex]

absolutely right

i once called in a smoke bombing just to block my teammates from camping

hehe didnt help too much

[shut cipher]

ok

I like when people try to tell legendary tales of their gameplay in this discord

[molten vortex]

r/actuallyhappened

[icy sluice]

Looks like that had a blocked word

Wanna try that again whoever that was?

[shut cipher]

lol

[icy sluice]

I saw that one

[solid hinge]

Yeah, it was the c word

[shut cipher]

Cant

[molten vortex]

whats the c word?

call of duty?

[icy sluice]

Mods can see the removed messages I am sure

[shut cipher]

They can

[solid hinge]

Cant but replace the A with an U @molten vortex

[midnight nimbus]

one of my friends went 162-0 the other day Blenheim farming and I'm JEALOUS

[shut cipher]

They should just block every word and then they don't even have to mod

[icy sluice]

For the people in here that don't know my name, it's Recon Soldier, so I actually Recon.

[molten vortex]

dam i hope eastern front is still happening

[icy sluice]

I hope so too

[solid hinge]

It will

[shut cipher]

yeah well one of my friends went 1000 and 0 with the ruby @midnight nimbus

[molten vortex]

would be nice to hop in a good ol T34 and die a few times cos the thing sucks

[icy sluice]

CoD WWII, the German announcer warned you by saying he will throw you on the frontlines of the Eastern Front... but they never did it I think

[molten vortex]

hehe yeah right

there was an eastern front map tho

with a giant rail gun of sorts

[icy sluice]

So if you lost there, he would say that... but you're already there

[molten vortex]

hehe right

[icy sluice]

Gustav Cannon is Eastern Front?

[molten vortex]

yeah it is

didnt u know?

[icy sluice]

I don't remember the location lol

[molten vortex]

there's signs in russian

on that map

[midnight nimbus]

I need to drop a >100-0 before i quit BFV

[molten vortex]

and not because my game is in russian

[icy sluice]

I googled Gustav Cannon and one of the first results was "Worst CoD Map ever"

[molten vortex]

hehehe

[icy sluice]

Like autocomplete results

[molten vortex]

it was pretty good actually

a big map for a change

always welcome

[midnight nimbus]

CoD WW2 has so many guns i wish were in BFV :/

[molten vortex]

yeah absolutely right

that's what i just thought about

it even has the mosin

and the svt

and all of this russian goodness

[solid hinge]

I overclocked my monitor and am doing so good at the game now. Is there a possibility of getting banned?

i went 35 and 5 and some guy called me a cheater lol

[molten vortex]

its not a software tweak so nah i dont think so

[solid hinge]

But from decent to very good in a day?

[molten vortex]

lol no

[solid hinge]

Cuz I feel insane and am paranoid lol

[molten vortex]

they would only ban you if they get proof you used hacks or other software

[solid hinge]

Can you ads with the boys at rifle is you are against a window or sand bags?

[midnight nimbus]

they won't even ban you for all software tweaks

[molten vortex]

yes u can as long as it registers as cover

[narrow moss]

they use a system flag, and if you get flagged, then you get a screenshot request sent to your PC

then your PC takes a screenshot and sends it back immediately, and then their sys processes it and determines it

but I think you have to get flagged more than once

[solid hinge]

I had msi afterburner running ]

but that's all

[narrow moss]

that wont get u banned

[solid hinge]

Alright thanks

[narrow moss]

esp and that potato PC thing will

[midnight nimbus]

roblox mode won't even reliably cause FF to screenshot

I know people that continue to use it all the time

[narrow moss]

its rly op, i tried it once but turned it off

since i was hitting thjrough the trees and i dont think people would like that

[midnight nimbus]

it's epic af on twisted steel

reshade is fine though

DICE has said it won't get you in any trouble

NVIDIA game filters and reshade are actually really nice in BF

[icy sluice]

You're nice in BF.

[midnight nimbus]

no u

[topaz dome]

no u turns

[polar totem]

So I've been playing the bf1 campaign, and so far have been disappointed

Three war stories in and I still think the prologue was better and showed WW1 more realistically

[tacit kelp]

Mercury is so camper map for tanks

[coral fiber]

Lol I'm one of those campers but as a sniper

I don't care i just snipe

[solid hinge]

It's hilarious because everyone says BF1 has a good campaign mode which doesn't rely on historical revisionism

[hybrid dock]

COD ww2 had barely any weapons at launch

i remember, i was there

[icy sluice]

War Stories heavily relies themselves on being a story

[hybrid dock]

there was no eastern weapons

[icy sluice]

cough
It was me against an Entire Bomber Squadron

[solid hinge]

Pretty much yeah

[fathom pebble]

[icy sluice]

NANI!?

[solid hinge]

same with the bedouin story

it's just glorified lawrence of arabia fanfiction

[hybrid dock]

any soviet or jap weapons in cod ww2 is post launch content

[icy sluice]

@fathom pebble you have great taste in music it seems

[fathom pebble]

thanks

its a playlist with 500+ songs

[solid hinge]

crab rave included?

[icy sluice]

by the way, had a nice moment in Aerodrome
https://streamable.com/fudko

[lunar lion]

Crab rave is fire

[fathom pebble]

never ate crab tho

but would

[solid hinge]

I only listen to old shit

[strong parrot]

imagine losing this bad to some moron with a boys and a revolver...

breakthrough defense side...won it at the 2nd to last sector because the teams too stupid to hold ONE CAP on the previous one

[amber notch]

@strong parrot you right

[strong parrot]

i dont recall asking your opinion

[amber notch]

I dont recall saying we cant publicly say something

go back to our dms

[strong parrot]

-insert insult from full metal jacket that is against tos-

[solid hinge]

does anyone here still play bad company 2?🤔

[neon loom]

I really wish there were ghillie suits. What is the outfit pieces that would resemble one?

If the Stags Blood helmet had more green on it then I would probably buy it

[icy sluice]

I know the Canadians wore Ghillie Suits

[proven acorn]

Anyone else getting disconnected?

[fringe basalt]

yeah constantly

[neon loom]

Why hasn't the smoke grenade launcher been fixed

[icy sluice]

What's wrong with it?

[neon loom]

Sometimes I'll shoot it and it will hit the ground and do nothing

[icy sluice]

Yeah that's uhh grenade physics

You can't just shoot it directly on the ground

It needs to spend some time in the air before hitting the ground first

[mossy badge]

it has a minimum arming distance if you will

[strong parrot]

smoke launcher doesnt have that...

only the frag rifle does

[mossy badge]

[coral fiber]

Wait a minute...

[formal valve]

Next week will be awesome for news

[solid hinge]

I love how nobody uses the sacred level 40 rake

How did it even make it to live servers

[icy sluice]

Rake is just a reskinned hatchet

[strong parrot]

lmao fucking useless ass pos team on breakthrough merc

cant even defend 1 fucking flag...nor take out a god damn transport sitting there

yeah just give up the sector with half the tickets still there ....morons

[solid hinge]

stop complaining

[formal valve]

@strong parrot the struggle is real my guy

[strong parrot]

oh sorry would you want to hear waaaaaah they dont have 20 new maps for me to play on yet because all the maps are going to be free for the game waaaah

[formal valve]

Lmao

Or whine that the cosmetics aren’t historical accurate

Like I do occasionally

[solid hinge]

you heard it here folks

only certain complaints are valid

[strong parrot]

nah complaining about moron teammates is valid

complaining endlessly about how you think there should be X more maps by X date because X game had it is fucking stupid

[solid hinge]

i think complaining about teammates is stupid

[strong parrot]

eh well maybe one day youll be near the top of the board

[opaque pawn]

Maybe complaining is dumb

Perhaps offer a solution instead of complaining

[stoic breach]

😬

[dusky saffron]

[solid hinge]

When half the team hasn’t even got over 1000 points mid game

[stoic breach]

I'm waiting for mercury to be a Squad Conquest map so I can play that instead

The entirety of C can be fortified I think

[green elm]

just drop mines behind tanks ez

[stoic breach]

C onto B and C onto D

I got spawn trapped by the enemy team because they had an MG42 on the hill

I've been spawn trapped a fuck ton

Stupid teammates on my side and clan players on the enemy side

I've won on Mercury like twice

Every single game

Yeah its almost as if tanks are more useful than planes

At this point I would take map reworks over new maps

I wanna enjoy the shit thats already in the game

Oh no

[dusky saffron]

@lunar lion Where did the messages go

[lunar lion]

Bot automatically deleted them

[dusky saffron]

Uh huh.

[stoic breach]

😩

[strong parrot]

cool so it auto mutes then deletes X messages

[shut cipher]

Yep

[strong parrot]

gunna need the mod logs on that one

[stoic breach]

[dusky saffron]

I wonder if it was really the bot that disrupted that peaceful battlefield convo

[stoic breach]

Yes

It was peaceful mode

[formal valve]

Man

[stoic breach]

Complaining about having shitty teammates

[dusky saffron]

and mapping that needs a fix

[formal valve]

It’s so hard to go from making a Axis company that resembles actual Germans nicely

[dusky saffron]

C point is the big suck

[formal valve]

To looking at your allies company

[dusky saffron]

Like I said before

we don't need 20 maps if the quality of existing maps is subpar

Mercury is cool but it needs touchups

like Panzerstorm

[stoic breach]

C point is literally just the open space of Hamada

[dusky saffron]

E point is a rectangle of land where about half of the area is just a building that doesn't face forward into the area

[stoic breach]

I like how small Mercury is though

It feels larger than it is

[unique crater]

Are all breakthrough servers now Mercury?

[stoic breach]

E and D once they get destroyed are completely fucked

[dusky saffron]

yep

[unique crater]

I want Breakthrough on Panzerstorm, best map

[stoic breach]

Panzerstorm is one of the only maps I like on conquest

[dusky saffron]

Breakthrough on Panzerstorm is high quality

[stoic breach]

Yus

Archer camping

[formal valve]

Whose excited for next week

[unique crater]

Archer nerd

Spotted

Getting the Tiger bully

[stoic breach]

Yes I am excited for StG1-5 Napalm

Tiger is shit in comparison to the Archer

[formal valve]

Cuz next week we’re getting:

Marita map trailer
Chapter 4 trailer
EA play stream
chapter 4/5 roadmap

[stoic breach]

Yea

[formal valve]

According to the weekly debrief

[stoic breach]

Information is nice

Holy shit, you know what

[formal valve]

So I’m kinda hyped

Wat

[stoic breach]

They need to kill Fjell and Narvik

Just fix those maps for conquest

[formal valve]

Delet dem

[stoic breach]

Oh god oh fuck

Narvik needs one less flag

Delet B flag

[formal valve]

Narvik needs to be ELIMINATED

[stoic breach]

And move the british uncap closer to B

[misty hill]

Delete Narvik

[formal valve]

Ffs

[unique crater]

Delete Narvik

[stoic breach]

Narvik is fixable

[formal valve]

They should use campaign maps

[dusky saffron]

ea play soon!

[stoic breach]

Fjell is not fixable

[formal valve]

Like that second mission of under no flag could be a cool map

[misty hill]

Fjell is some shit

[dusky saffron]

Fjell is perfect smh

[stoic breach]

Fjell needs the Siege Clubhouse treatment

[formal valve]

Who agrees?

[unique crater]

Fjell is gross

[dusky saffron]

I love fjell as is

[stoic breach]

Actually no

[dusky saffron]

The only area where it should probably get reworked

[stoic breach]

Fjell needs the Hereford Base treatment

[dusky saffron]

is A into C

[unique crater]

Fucking snipers in the snow banks! THE SNOW BANKS!

[stoic breach]

Just change the entire map pls

[dusky saffron]

NO

[misty hill]

Yes

[stoic breach]

You know what would make Fjell better

[dusky saffron]

No planes

[misty hill]

Italians

[stoic breach]

Change the time of day so it gets shadows, and then add light boxes and shit

[dusky saffron]

That'd be cool

[stoic breach]

So that the mountains contrast properly

[dusky saffron]

but then again a majority of maps could be just night maps

and they'd be cool af

[stoic breach]

If people camp on the snow they get lit up

Yeah

[misty hill]

Twisted Steel

[dusky saffron]

That's honestly one way they can "add" new maps

by doing some variations

[stoic breach]

Also the rotation between E and D on Fjell is good

But anywhere else is shit

[dusky saffron]

I like the shortcut from B to C but

A to C is aids

[midnight nimbus]

both Fjell and Narvik suck

[stoic breach]

E to C is hot garbage

[formal valve]

Take Panzerstorm, Make it at night, change some terrain and botta bing botta boom you got a D-Day night drop map

[dusky saffron]

E to C is pretty bad

[stoic breach]

We're talking about how you can fix those maps

[dusky saffron]

it's a tunnel

[stoic breach]

👺

[formal valve]

Narvik gey

[midnight nimbus]

don't play them on conquest

problem largely solved

[stoic breach]

Conquest is the only popular gamemode in OCE

👺👺

[formal valve]

Play them on frontlines

[prime pine]

B to d is pretty fun depending on the route.

[dusky saffron]

LMAO

[formal valve]

Oh wait

[dusky saffron]

@prime pine Oh it's you

:^)

[prime pine]

Hello.

[midnight nimbus]

i'd rather not play BFV than play BFV CQ

[formal valve]

CQ is awesome ree

[midnight nimbus]

the second Breakthrough dies in BFV, I'm just dropping the game entirely

[formal valve]

Reee

Reeee

[misty hill]

Mercury CQ is fun

[formal valve]

REEE

[strong parrot]

spread out teams vs easy to funnel choke points on linear progression maps?

[stoic breach]

If the maps were better then breakthrough would be more popular

[prime pine]

Breakthrough on fjell is one of the better experiences. But thats cause there are no planes.

[stoic breach]

Mercury BT needs a fucking hotfix

Holy shit

[formal valve]

It’s good

[dusky saffron]

@stoic breach

[formal valve]

It’s easy as attackers

[stoic breach]

Why would you give the defenders two massive flanking routes in sector 1

[dusky saffron]

:)

[formal valve]

Never lost at least in the first sector

[dusky saffron]

remember the spawn points too

[stoic breach]

Its easy if you can coordinate 32 players at a time

[midnight nimbus]

most maps are at least playable in breakthrough

[formal valve]

Just piat spam

Victory every time

[misty hill]

No

[dusky saffron]

just use the Boys

:)

smile

[misty hill]

Yes

[midnight nimbus]

Panzerstorm BT is genuinely fun

[misty hill]

Yes

[stoic breach]

I've only passed sector 1 twice in BT and those were the only times the attackers rushed

[prime pine]

Between the cove and poulos house theres almost now cover.

[stoic breach]

Panzerstorm BT is the best BT

[prime pine]

No

No cover

[formal valve]

Drop down on your tum and give ‘em the BOI(s)

[midnight nimbus]

Aerodrome BT 🤤🤤🤤

[misty hill]

Bah

[stoic breach]

The Boys just sucks on all of Mercury

[formal valve]

Aerodrome ew

[stoic breach]

Unless you camp

Which is boring

Aerodrome is only good on BT

Every other gamemode sucks on it

[formal valve]

People like to camp in the downed DFS’s

[misty hill]

It’s not even good then

[prime pine]

Rotterdam & devestation breakthrough is awesome.

[misty hill]

Yes

[dusky saffron]

I'm inspired to play breakthrough now

tbh

@wicked garnet awaken

[midnight nimbus]

Aerodrome BT on attack is an absolute masterpiece

[formal valve]

I mostly main conquest

[dusky saffron]

We must squad up and conquer NA

[formal valve]

Just more options

[stoic breach]

English tanks 😩

[formal valve]

I like being able to love freely

[misty hill]

[prime pine]

I love playing with the heavy churchill on aerdrome breakthrough. Such a good tank.

[stoic breach]

Archer and MK8 Val

[formal valve]

English late war tanks 😫 *boner intensifies

[midnight nimbus]

breakthrough is just spawn trapping, but it's conducive to winning

[stoic breach]

Still best

Breakthrough spawn trapping is fine

[midnight nimbus]

yeah because it moves you forward

[stoic breach]

Cause you only go in one direction anyways

Yeah

[misty hill]

Can we just replace Narvik with a D-day Map with Higgins boats

[prime pine]

Hesh rounds absolutely destroy tigers in 3 hits. 2 if you are lucky.

[formal valve]

Churchill MKVII

Can we just delete Narvik from existence

And place whale lad in mercury

[stoic breach]

Night Narvik would work so much better as breakthrough and if the airborne stuff was the first sector

[formal valve]

With the dolphins

WAIT NO

WE CANT DELETE NARVIK

[midnight nimbus]

night Narvik actually has ok visibility

[formal valve]

it houses whale boi

[midnight nimbus]

too bad you have to play airborne

[stoic breach]

It has better visibility than day narvik

[formal valve]

We can’t leave him to die

[misty hill]

Night Narvik is alright

[formal valve]

I’m making whale memes lmao

[misty hill]

Day Narvik is a shitshow

[prime pine]

All of the maps are fine. Its only twisted steel and hamada that are painful.

[stoic breach]

I dont understand why DICE didnt make airborne attacker-sided and make them win like 60% of the time

It would make more sense

[misty hill]

I like Twisted Steel

[formal valve]

Panzerstorm CQ>Aerodrome on any mode

[midnight nimbus]

twisted steel is somewhat decent on Breakthrough

[formal valve]

Prove me wrong

[misty hill]

You’re correct

[formal valve]

Delete aerodrome

[stoic breach]

Twisted Steel is best when the bridge is the focus

[misty hill]

Yes

[midnight nimbus]

no, Aerodrome BT on attack is the most fun you can have in BFV

[formal valve]

Hold up

[prime pine]

There's something off about twisted steel on breakthrough. I dunno what it is.

[formal valve]

Can we just delete Africa and Norway from BFV?

[stoic breach]

Nah why

Just fix the norway maps

[midnight nimbus]

I would pay $20 to play Aerodrome BT on attack 24/7 if i were guaranteed a tank every time

[formal valve]

Cuz Narvik, Fjell and Hamada

[stoic breach]

And adjust aerodrome so its fun on conquest and the same in BT

[formal valve]

Aerodrome is “ok”

[midnight nimbus]

I would have a triple digit K/D in a week

[formal valve]

Hamada is

Hamada is

[stoic breach]

Putting the B and F flags closer together on aerodrome conquest would be better

[formal valve]

There’s no word in the English language

To describe Hamada

[stoic breach]

And make the canyon better

[prime pine]

Hamada sucks and i barely even deal with it on conquest.

[stoic breach]

Hamada is good in Breakthrough

[midnight nimbus]

Hamada is ok in Fortress

bc Ju-88

with no counter

[formal valve]

I agree

[midnight nimbus]

or Valentine Mk8

[formal valve]

Becuz Spitfire MkVb 😫

[midnight nimbus]

instant 10 kills off spawn

[formal valve]

Only reason I like fortress

[stoic breach]

Mercury sector 2 is basically Hamada fortress and it feels great until you actually get to the flags

[prime pine]

Hamada gets boring as a defender if the attackers aren't pushing.

[formal valve]

Spitfire MKVB

Who else thinks we will get the USAF spitfire as a pacific plane?

Since it recently got “pacific game logic”

[midnight nimbus]

I will only start flying for B-29 Superfortress

[formal valve]

Oh god please no

That’s terrifying

[midnight nimbus]

I want the Ju-88, but on steroids

[formal valve]

Just imagine that in Bf

Oh god

[midnight nimbus]

it should be able to teamkill

[formal valve]

oh no

[stoic breach]

Why DICE are sleeping on adding the helicopter to base multiplayer

[midnight nimbus]

and those kills should count towards you

[formal valve]

No

[stoic breach]

I bring that up often

[formal valve]

@stoic breach die

[prime pine]

I fucked around in the valentine AA on fortress. With flares and shit. I can safely say now that im much better leading my rounds in the AA

[stoic breach]

The helicopter would add so much to multiplayer

[formal valve]

Helicopter would have no use

[stoic breach]

You dont even understand

[formal valve]

Beside transport

[stoic breach]

It would have so much use

[formal valve]

No

[stoic breach]

Flying PIAT squad

That kinda dumb shit

[midnight nimbus]

I would actually pay like $30 to use the BF3 AH in BFV

[formal valve]

It would break what little immersion I still have

[stoic breach]

I wanna see it

[prime pine]

It'll be fucked over my planes with ease. But it'll have its use.

[stoic breach]

I dont play BFV for a WW2 sim

[formal valve]

Please no

[midnight nimbus]

so i can hovercamp and farm everyone

[prime pine]

Its own seperate niche.

[formal valve]

not like this

[prime pine]

Tanks can easily strike it. Infy can too.

[stoic breach]

The heli would add to the sandbox

[formal valve]

I just don’t want to see it in game

[stoic breach]

And it would be more useful than planes

[formal valve]

It hurts my eyes

[midnight nimbus]

I would actually pay $60 for the BF3 AH in BFV if it guaranteed that no one else on PC could use it

[formal valve]

It would make me want to quit th game

[stoic breach]

I wish I had played BF3

[prime pine]

Imagine it on panzerstorm being in the heli under fire from 7 tanks at once? How fucked are you now?

[formal valve]

I wish I had friends

[stoic breach]

The heli would be hilarious on Panzerstorm

[midnight nimbus]

it wouldn't matter in the BF3 AH

its flight ceiling is too high

[stoic breach]

You just drop assaults on top of tanks

[midnight nimbus]

you can't hit it from the ground

[stoic breach]

Boys Rifle-level trolling

[midnight nimbus]

you can just sit up there, untouchable

[stoic breach]

Yes

[midnight nimbus]

shred everything on the map

[formal valve]

I just want my Stug III

Dice why

[stoic breach]

Lol

[formal valve]

Pls just give me my Stug III

I cry every time

Give me my M3 Lee tall boy

[stoic breach]

Give me a german tank buff

I'm forced to use Zimerit on my Panzer IV if I want spot flares

[formal valve]

Give me my Panzerkampfwagon III

Dice why you do dis

[midnight nimbus]

I think the German tanks being kinda shitty is really funny

[formal valve]

It’s accurate-ish

[midnight nimbus]

it makes being British all the more enjoyable

[formal valve]

Not really tho

[stoic breach]

Well its funny to camp supply boxes with a second friendly tank

I had like a 15 man killstreak when people kept trying to kill us

[formal valve]

Give me my Hurricane fighter

[stoic breach]

And at the end of the game I went 33-0

Panzer IV

[midnight nimbus]

can't play BFV until next week, can't wait for a nice 70 killstreak on Aerodrome

[formal valve]

Gib firefly pls tho

[stoic breach]

70 killstreak

I should try and get that on aerodrome

[midnight nimbus]

my friends have broken 100+

[stoic breach]

Hahaha fucking hell

[midnight nimbus]

but the enemy quits before i get there

or my team wins too fast

so i have to sit in chat and tell the enemies where my teammates are to help them out

[stoic breach]

Hahaha

[solid hinge]

tfw they remove frontlines but keep aerodrome breakthrough

[stoic breach]

My friend decided to smoke for the attacking team as a defender on Mercury to help them win sector 1

So we could see the rest of the map

[midnight nimbus]

once i get my 100+ farm, I can finally quit

[stoic breach]

Yea

[midnight nimbus]

one of my friends went 162-0 on Hamada, with bigboss flying next to him going 81-0

[stoic breach]

Man how good would the helicopter be as a counter to tanks though, just dropping dynamite assaults on top of them

Holy shit

That sounds epic

[midnight nimbus]

now that's what i call farming

[stoic breach]

Yeah when you sent Bigboss's thing here

[midnight nimbus]

yeah, dropping 162 kills in a bomber is fairly doable when you have the best dogfighter in BF history running in your squad

[stoic breach]

His stats were just pure dedication

[midnight nimbus]

he played comp too

so it's not like he only farms scrubs

[stoic breach]

Yeah you mentioned

Thats cool though

[midnight nimbus]

imagine playing a game where enemy planes are just not a threat

that's what it's like to have him on your team

[stoic breach]

😩

[midnight nimbus]

the skill gap in flying is honestly silly

a shitty infy player can sneak off a kill on drunkkz3

no one can sneak off a kill on bigboss

you just have to accept that you won't win that dogfight

[stoic breach]

Thats like those stories you hear about people doing ridiculous shit in games

I love stuff like that

[midnight nimbus]

kinda sad how the best BF players don't post much on YT

or even stream much

[stoic breach]

Yeah

I think the dude with the most kills on xbox in BFV is this random australian dude who I played against

Never even heard of him before

[prime pine]

Oh?

[stoic breach]

He has like 60k kills to 10k deaths

Cause he has a dedicated squad

[prime pine]

Can you remember any clan tags?

I may know them.

[stoic breach]

Cant remember his tag

[midnight nimbus]

only good console player is GUNJY

RIP

[prime pine]

Theres xAPx, there's zE/fL etc.

[stoic breach]

Yeah

Fucking

PTFO, vE

[prime pine]

I can show how many kills i once racked up. I gotta find it.

[stoic breach]

C4

[prime pine]

OH GOD

[stoic breach]

Cant stand them

[prime pine]

PTFO

I havent fucking

[stoic breach]

Cant fuckng stand them

[prime pine]

Fought them in ages

[stoic breach]

LGST

GREN

[prime pine]

There's DWE and DW.

[stoic breach]

Yeah

I wish I had people to regularly play with like that

[prime pine]

I've fought them so many times.

Its like.

[stoic breach]

But I'm not joining their clan

[prime pine]

Yeah i rather not join clans.

[stoic breach]

I have a clan for school friends but we dont play together much

[prime pine]

I only join them very rarely. Besides, i like having a clear name tag on the leaderboard.

[stoic breach]

Yeah

I had a cool emblem in BF1 so I still rep my clan

[prime pine]

There was a match where i got 140 something kills and only 27-30 deaths?

[dusky saffron]

yikes

[prime pine]

Very speccy

[stoic breach]

That was my emblem in BF1

[dusky saffron]

it really is mercury breakthrough all the way

that's absolutely painful

[prime pine]

If you want to know some good people razen.

[stoic breach]

Fuck I used to hit 90 bombs all the time in BF1 operations

[prime pine]

Alpha huntress, truskie and marcus are very friendly people.

[stoic breach]

Where did I go wrong

Hm

Yeah maybe

But I like my clan tag

BRUT

Cause I like Carpenter Brut's music

[prime pine]

Oh no im just saying if you want to do such then do such.

[stoic breach]

Ye

[prime pine]

I wonder where i stand on the leader board in Australia.

[stoic breach]

I think I'm like 63rd most kills in Australia or something

[solid hinge]

tfw people say you just have to smoke mercury breakthrough

[stoic breach]

Its weird

My name doesnt show up on the leaderboard

[solid hinge]

there are too many guns to smoke

@prime pine have you actually been playing plants vs zombies for a fucking day

[stoic breach]

[solid hinge]

why even afk that long

[stoic breach]

Komi san likes PvZ

[solid hinge]

I'm sorry I just wanted to bring it up

anyways back to standard coversation

[midnight nimbus]

only clantag to be scared of in NA BF

CFA

[stoic breach]

Lol

[midnight nimbus]

CHAD isn't even scary

[stoic breach]

In Australia thats the Country Fire Authority

[midnight nimbus]

like Enders is good and shit

but back in BF4 mang

[solid hinge]

AOD is a pretty normie clan IIRC

[prime pine]

Maybe i have been playing pvz for a day.

[midnight nimbus]

BF4 was the pinnacle of teamplay making you effective

[solid hinge]

I remember them from the PS2 days and they were annoying as hell but they would sometimes be fun

[midnight nimbus]

big team stacks aren't as good in BFV as they were in BF4
