[solid hinge]

[hybrid dragon]

Didn't even really typ tbh

Was looking for a emoji

[molten vortex]

go to hell

[solid hinge]

no u

[gray glade]

wait, if you click the emoji button thingy, it says you are typing?

[hybrid dragon]

Also lets not talk about political figures etc, it has no place on this server.

[molten vortex]

i though you was gon say something important but you were looking for an emoji

ok chief

[solid hinge]

our talk just went a very different way than really supposed to

[molten vortex]

totally correct

hey btw have y'all heard about marxism? its a great thing i swear

[solid hinge]

wait what

what's that

[molten vortex]

joking just tryna piss people off

[solid hinge]

dont

ohh

Nacho is prob looking for an emoji

[molten vortex]

again

[solid hinge]

Yep

dont worry about Nacho, worrry about me

[molten vortex]

dam why tf is firestorm so dead

ok now im scared

[hybrid dragon]

Also Eli, change your name into something more appropriate, if you fail to do this there will be consequences.

[graceful prairie]

i wish the selbstlafder 1916 had a decent scope not that fucking 3x

[solid hinge]

i have this game for 2 days rn and i didnt touch firestorm once

[molten vortex]

i guess it was about time until someone notices

k i probably will but i just like how my name sounds so much

[solid hinge]

hahahah

probably you are trying to be edgy

and failing

So yeah

[molten vortex]

ok is it better now

[lament zephyr]

anyone down for Bf5

[graceful prairie]

selbstlader 1916 24-3 sector 2 mercury

[solid hinge]

Yeah

its better

Commie

[molten vortex]

thanks i want to have a reference either to r34 or communism in my name

[lament zephyr]

Go into BF5 Squad 5 if your down

[solid hinge]

im kinda tired

[molten vortex]

same stuff and also im on xbox and no one plays on xbox

[solid hinge]

really ? is the game dead on xbox

[molten vortex]

nah not so much

mp is alive and well

firestorm's dead tho it takes 2 mins to find a game

[solid hinge]

Do you like firestorm ?

idc about it

[molten vortex]

i really really like it i just dont get to play it

[solid hinge]

rn

[molten vortex]

since its well dead

[solid hinge]

maybe i need to try it sometime

but for now im busy with mp

[molten vortex]

i got bored of mp at this point

[lament zephyr]

PC is the place to be

[molten vortex]

played a couple of matches on mercury and im like shiet its getting boring

pc is the place to be indeed

i just have no money for a decent pc

[solid hinge]

I only got to play 6 different maps i think. How many are there

[sleek solstice]

fuck this stuttering is annoying

[lament zephyr]

Theres like 10 total

[sleek solstice]

i hate stutters in bfv

[solid hinge]

i saved up for 4 years to get a decent pc.

but i cant play all games cuz my cpu is pure bottlenecking

[molten vortex]

theres like 10 maps but most of them are traaaash

[solid hinge]

I like them

but bf3 maps are better i guess

I know most of em

[sleek solstice]

Rotterdam is probably the heaviest/worst performance map?

since its a city

[molten vortex]

it doesnt feel exceptionally demanding it runs alright even on consoles

[solid hinge]

idk. I get most on that snowy map with 2 big villages if i remember correclty i get so many stutters

[sleek solstice]

Yeah BFV Stutters are fucking annoying

[solid hinge]

rotterdam is pretty bad for me too

[sleek solstice]

I am just playing Arras right now

[molten vortex]

by alright i mean 40-60fps since thats the performance we get on both xbone and ps4

[sleek solstice]

and i keep getting stutters

Should I have DX12 off or on?

[molten vortex]

bf5 only freezes for me when im finishing assignments and stuff

[sleek solstice]

I have it on right now

[solid hinge]

Yeah i get 50-80 fps but on pc u feel it more if u drop under 60 and the stutters are so irritating rn

[molten vortex]

dunno just lock it on 60

[formal valve]

Hey guys

I got a cool little WW2 story

[solid hinge]

I get even more stuttering when i lock it on 60 :(

tell me

[sleek solstice]

I play smoothly all the time in BFV
but I get bunch of these stutters some times
and I only lag when there are tons of explosions

[lament zephyr]

GPU?

[solid hinge]

1070

[formal valve]

So my teacher for a class I’m in knows a guy who was on he Bataan death march in the pacific

When they were on the march, they were going through some mountains and one of their guards was this short angry Japanese guy who kept screaming at them. When the other guards weren’t looking, him and a few others picked him up and threw him off he mountain

[solid hinge]

cpu i5 4460. thats my problem

[formal valve]

The guards never noticed

[molten vortex]

ahahahahha

[solid hinge]

lol

[molten vortex]

thats a decent story

[formal valve]

Take that you damn yellow monkeys lmao

[restive token]

LF a fun Platoon or something... I NEED FRIENDS MAN

[solid hinge]

No need to be racist to that yellow monkeys

[molten vortex]

well my great grandfather is still MIA

eastern front

obviously he's dead

[solid hinge]

rip

[restive token]

which front more exactly

[lament zephyr]

Thats a Bruh moment

[restive token]

because my great grandfather is MIA as well

[graceful prairie]

haha but thats a women name

[formal valve]

Inb4 he’s still alive

[restive token]

what a plot

[lament zephyr]

My Great Great Cousin 4 times removed is MIA

[solid hinge]

Ok. sad thing is i only know my uncle and Grandpa and my grandpa. never seen nor hesrd about other familymembers

[tender dagger]

Hey, could somebody help me with that tbf airplane mission?

I play on ps4

[solid hinge]

So

Is the Boys any good

Xbox is better than PS4

jk

Cause I’ve tilted several boys at rifle users

With th K98

[molten vortex]

boys fucking sucks

its impossible to use at a distance

is just 100 meters and thats it

[solid hinge]

I feel like that’s wrong

[molten vortex]

it takes so much time to rotate the bolt your target would have enough time to take a shit and come back

[solid hinge]

Fuck snipers

im rocking lmg

[molten vortex]

im rocking mp40

[solid hinge]

I mean

I feel like that’s wrong on both ends lol

Boys are powerful

Just their easy to whoop

So I mean

[restive token]

im rocking throwing knives

[solid hinge]

Im rocking dying

I’m rocking iron sight snoring

[sleek solstice]

Guys whats better DX11 or DX12 for BFV

[solid hinge]

Sniping

[molten vortex]

im rocking a hatchet

[solid hinge]

Dx 11

Change my mind

[restive token]

11

[sleek solstice]

oh well i guess ill switch back then

[solid hinge]

Iron sight Long range headshots

[sleek solstice]

maybe thats why i have the stutters

[solid hinge]

i have higher fps on dx12 but so much more stuttering

[molten vortex]

yeah i always put an iron sight on my snipers

it just feels more correct

[restive token]

yh on dx12 the stuttering is real

[solid hinge]

Well not always

I just like the bayonet lmao

Plus I tilt krags from across the map

[sleek solstice]

I hope they once fix the stuttering

[solid hinge]

It’s great

[molten vortex]

i enjoy a good ol g95 with an iron sight

[solid hinge]

ive got a bipod for my knife

[charred heron]

There are 2 types of teammates in this game:
Those who know how to play this damn game and those who don't

Latter make up at least 70% of this playerbase

[solid hinge]

i am the later one i guess

[molten vortex]

hahahahahah

yeah right my man yeah right

totally accurate

[charred heron]

Honestly, how can you be so stupid to ask in Conquest what this mode does?

[solid hinge]

what to do in conquest tho?

[molten vortex]

omg conquest is literally the only game mode in bf5

the only one that has an active player base

[restive token]

well thats what bf is known for

[molten vortex]

right

[solid hinge]

what do i need to do. Do i need to let those 5 objectives turn red ?

[molten vortex]

yeah

[restive token]

XD

[molten vortex]

blue actually not red

[solid hinge]

oh

[charred heron]

Conquest is the game mode picked up by people who just want to play something, literal brainlets and people who are too bad for TDM but still want something for their always lonely nights

[solid hinge]

than i think i lost

every time i play conquest

[sleek solstice]

So guys whats your favourite map in BFV?

[strong parrot]

if the boys is good for anything beyond the meme 1 shots, its making me have more throwing knives and revolver kills

[charred heron]

None

[solid hinge]

i love rush in bf. I only played conquest tho in bfv

[charred heron]

Literally none

[molten vortex]

arras and that tank one

[sleek solstice]

I only like arras because its really colorful

[light coral]

Hamada

[solid hinge]

i think That bridge map in the Netherlands. Because my performance is good and the map is just pretty fun

[charred heron]

I hate all maps to a certain degree, but Aerodome, Hamada and Mercury are literally the worst in every design aspect

[molten vortex]

i like arras cos it feels like an actual war

[restive token]

am i the only one who likes Mercury tho?

[light coral]

Hamada

[molten vortex]

mercury is the best looking one but the worst balanced one as well

[light coral]

I think Mercury is awesome on cql

Breakthrough is shit though

[charred heron]

Mercury is just bad in every way

It's on the level of Hamada

[solid hinge]

but really. what is breakthrough?

is it rush?

mercury sucks on conquest too

[molten vortex]

they gon spill the beans on the pacific front next ea play

[solid hinge]

it doesnt have enough flank routes

[molten vortex]

im excited

[charred heron]

@solid hinge BF1 Operations without the cinematic aspect

[light coral]

I flank like a motherfucker on Mercury

Beach life

[solid hinge]

Wait. is there rush in bfv or did i just not see it

[molten vortex]

yes there is rush on bf5

[charred heron]

Seeing Mercury makes me wonder if all the good map designers left DICE a long time ago

[molten vortex]

its when you capture parts of the map

one by one

[solid hinge]

i know. But i thought i didnt see it. rush is my fav gamemode

in bfbc2 by far

[charred heron]

Rush had bombs, now you have to defend and attack objectives in a sector

So basically BF1 Operations

[solid hinge]

rush is an occasional weekly game mode

[charred heron]

Because Dice knows that the GOs are garbo

[molten vortex]

oh well guess im wrong

my game isnt in english so

yeah

[solid hinge]

really? that sucks. I just want normal rush.

[molten vortex]

im wrong

[solid hinge]

with bombs

[restive token]

whats the most overpowered class? for me is Assault

you can literally snipe ppl

[molten vortex]

support is op

[restive token]

put a scope on it

and you are done

[molten vortex]

250 rounds in a mag how is that fair

[solid hinge]

I play for 2 days. I got no idea. im rocking support rn

and bipod on my knife

[restive token]

you have to stand still to kill somethign tho

[molten vortex]

yeah you just grab a good ol mg34 with an extended belt, lay down in a bush and watch the world burn

[charred heron]

@molten vortex Lower RoF, hard recoil and you overheat quite quickly

[restive token]

then a guy with assault headshots you from the other part of the map

[charred heron]

250 rounds is only for the guys who don't like to reload often

[restive token]

how is that fair

[solid hinge]

but my bipod on my knife is the best tho

[molten vortex]

you put it on a bipod and you never have to reload and your recoil is lower than 90 percent of the guns

[solid hinge]

mg34 with extended belt

[molten vortex]

ik mg34 only has like 150 rounds

or 100 dunno

[charred heron]

MG34 with extended belt or drums doesn't do much thb

Just go with the belt

[molten vortex]

m1922 has 250 rounds

[strong parrot]

drums suck because it limits your view on top

[solid hinge]

the barrel mag is MUCH cooler

[molten vortex]

the drums are not historically accurate

[solid hinge]

also comes with the slower overheat option

[molten vortex]

they were only used for airplane mgs

[solid hinge]

mg34 doesnt have the same firepower or mag size as the other mmgs but it's so fuckin accurate

[charred heron]

I kind of went with the MG42 since i unlocked it

[solid hinge]

[charred heron]

It's easy to handle with the 50 round belt and the higher RoF

[solid hinge]

[molten vortex]

mg34 has max accuracy i believe

[solid hinge]

[molten vortex]

i've been really enjoying the 1922 recently tho

[solid hinge]

i just express my feelings in emojis

[molten vortex]

250 rounds is a killer

[light coral]

Man the mg42 was my favorite mmg for the longest time, I've got hundreds of kills with it, and just today I found out I'd been using it with only 2 specializations unlocked

[solid hinge]

[molten vortex]

lol

[solid hinge]

[molten vortex]

honestly specialisations aint fair

[solid hinge]

[molten vortex]

lvl 50 players have an obvious advantage over newbies

[solid hinge]

[molten vortex]

cos specialisations do have a significant effect

[light coral]

Specs are so easy to get

[molten vortex]

its not like 2 percent boost in accuracy like in other games

[solid hinge]

[molten vortex]

yes they are but still

its 700cc

[solid hinge]

[molten vortex]

and cc are not so easy to get

[charred heron]

You get many credits early on

[molten vortex]

especially when ur trying to max out all guns

[charred heron]

And your starter weapons already have decent perks

[solid hinge]

[light coral]

You get them for ranking up, lol

[solid hinge]

[light coral]

Never had an issue getting specs

[molten vortex]

i did have some issues when i would have no cc to purchase an upgrade

alright i shall go to sleep now its almost 3 am

[solid hinge]

🇳🇱 🇳🇱

[molten vortex]

i feel so tired

and unmotivated

[solid hinge]

me2. thats why im sending emojis to serious chats between people

[molten vortex]

hahah

[solid hinge]

it's the vehicle specs that are broken

[molten vortex]

oh yes

[solid hinge]

the guns are decent without them

some of the planes are literally useless untill level 4

[molten vortex]

plane specs are so broken

[solid hinge]

b2 stuka is a joke

[molten vortex]

a maxed out spitfire owns the sky

[solid hinge]

until you get the cannons

[sleek solstice]

i just got a stutter and i died in bfv

well shit

[solid hinge]

Welcome to the party

[molten vortex]

pc gang i guess

[drifting marsh]

cannons are a killer fr lol

[sleek solstice]

[solid hinge]

Im on ps4

It still stutters

[charred heron]

37mm Stuka is literally the best fighter in game

[solid hinge]

37mm stuka scares me so bad

[charred heron]

You lose your anti ground points for the best anti plane cannons in the game

[solid hinge]

[charred heron]

[solid hinge]

[molten vortex]

im on xbox it does stutters but not so noticebly

[solid hinge]

[molten vortex]

its like a drop from 60 to 50 and then 40 not so noticeable

[solid hinge]

it's in tanks it stutters the most

less of an fps drop and more of an actual freeze

[molten vortex]

nah it only freezes when i finish an assignment

[solid hinge]

i got a quad kill in a panzer 4 and the game literally froze for about 6 seconds

[sleek solstice]

The only thing that makes me lag on pc is the explosions

[molten vortex]

6 seconds>

what the f

it only froze for like a second for me

less than that actually

[solid hinge]

usually every time I get a kill in a tank it freezes for a second

[molten vortex]

and im on regular xbone

the og one from 2013

[solid hinge]

[drifting marsh]

i get a 3 second freeze for each kill in firestorm

[solid hinge]

the quad kill just.. idk it blew up

[sleek solstice]

also the funny thing that my bfv stutters even worse when i play on minimum settings
rather than ultra

[solid hinge]

me2 but i get low fps on ultra so i still play on minimum

[molten vortex]

ayla u on pro or slim/fat?

[solid hinge]

@sleek solstice sounds like a bottleneck

just like me ;(

[sleek solstice]

I play smoothly on ultra but only lags a bit on explosions

drops to like 40-50

but normally its 60

but the stutters are the worst

[molten vortex]

oh btw the resolution on xbone is so bad

[sleek solstice]

[molten vortex]

when you look at buildings and theres nothing going on its 1080p

but when theres stuff going on on screen it drops to 720

[charred heron]

Low: Game stutters
Ultra: Everything fine

Just like my GPU trying to tell me that it's not properly occupied

[molten vortex]

and you clearly see the difference

[solid hinge]

i have 60-80 fps and in firefights with 15 people shooting at once with explosions i get 50 fps

[sleek solstice]

Is gtx 1060 and i5 8600k a bottleneck?

[solid hinge]

no

[drifting marsh]

pc master race right?

[sleek solstice]

then i dont have bottleneck

[solid hinge]

i dont think so

i got a gtx 1070 eith an i5 4460

so that bottleneck is definitely there

Slim I think

Definitely not the pro

[drifting marsh]

pro is bad?

[molten vortex]

pro is good

[solid hinge]

if i knew more about pc's when i upgraded my gpu i would probably chosen the gtx 1060 with i5 8600k

[molten vortex]

it holds 60fps 90 percent of the time

[solid hinge]

I just dont have it

@sleek solstice how much ram u got ?

[sleek solstice]

16gb ram 3000mhz

[molten vortex]

yeah bf5 is still a really well optimized game

since it kinda runs at 60fps at 5 yo machines

[solemn wedge]

team slim

[solid hinge]

should be capable of running 60 fps constant i would think

[molten vortex]

team fat xbone

[solemn wedge]

[sleek solstice]

yeah my bfv runs 60fps on ultra but drops on like 10+ explosions at once

and stutters because i dont know why

[solid hinge]

but bf 5 is unoptimized but more optimized than bf1. i get 30-60 fps in bf1

[sleek solstice]

is stuttering the games fault?

[solemn wedge]

Game is having some fps issues

[molten vortex]

dam i loved bf1

[solid hinge]

i think so. i heard more people about it

[solemn wedge]

So yes it may be

[molten vortex]

bf1 was filled with content compared to bf5

[sleek solstice]

I hope BFV gets a patch soon with fix maybe

[solid hinge]

bro. bf1 is so cool but i just uninstalled it because of bad framerates.

[sleek solstice]

I uninstalled bf1 because i had no more space on my pc for it lol

[molten vortex]

i uninstalled it because i played the crap out of every map

[solid hinge]

i only play bf3 and bf5 rn

[molten vortex]

damn it had the mosin rifle

i just recalled

i loved bf1 so much

[sleek solstice]

also i uninstalled it because bf1 has those fucking dlcs that yuou need to pay for

[solid hinge]

bf1 looks so good

[sleek solstice]

and i didnt play bf1 when they were free

[solid hinge]

rip

[molten vortex]

i got all the dlcs for the full price im a huge bf fanboy

[solid hinge]

i actually expected bf5 to run worse than bf1 but it runs a little bit better. Only those stutterings are irritating asf

[molten vortex]

i never played hardline tho

[sleek solstice]

me neither

oh damn i remember playing bf4

[molten vortex]

is hardline even worth trying

[sleek solstice]

really good

in my opinion

[solid hinge]

Hardline looks pretty ok to me

[molten vortex]

damn bf4 was so great

[sleek solstice]

yeah

[molten vortex]

my first xbone game

my fav shooter ever

oh shit im making them grammar mistakes

i guess i really have to go to sleep

[solid hinge]

never played it. I wanted to buy bf4 but ended up buying bf5 because a friend of me got bfv

[molten vortex]

im becoming more stupid each second

[sleek solstice]

One thing that i like in BFV is that it loads really fast for me
in BF1 it took like 5 mins to load a game

[molten vortex]

yeah fair

bf5 loads much faster than bf1

on consoles that is

but i think bf5 maps are lacking scale

[solid hinge]

ikr. I got blown away by the loading screen lol

[drifting marsh]

i remember when ps channel made a video about bf1 dlcs being free

lots of fanboys were talking shit about thafl

for no reason

twice fr

[sleek solstice]

Future frame rendering off in dx11 results in really bad framerate

[solid hinge]

@molten vortex jsut go to sleep. i should go too maybe

[molten vortex]

they did the right thing

by giving away the dlcs

[drifting marsh]

yes

[molten vortex]

cos most of them were dead asf at that point

no one played apocalypse

no one played turning tides

[drifting marsh]

Xd

[molten vortex]

alright i will finally put myself to rest

[solid hinge]

good night

[molten vortex]

thanks

you have a good one too

[solid hinge]

thanks

[sleek solstice]

goodnight

[solid hinge]

i will go too now. It was nice talking to you guys

[sleek solstice]

alright i think my bfv plays much more smooth with no stuttering with dx11

goodnight ice

[solid hinge]

it runs more smoot but still stutters for me

[sleek solstice]

i think i will go too in 6 mins

[solid hinge]

thanks

alright. Goodnight

[sleek solstice]

goodnight

because apparently i cant hit someone not moving...

[amber notch]

[strong parrot]

oh yeah the match after narvik was panzerstorm wasnt it...but those aod useless twats on my team mage me rage quit that server

[solid hinge]

@strong parrot what are those for?

[dusky saffron]

@strong parrot >aod

[strong parrot]

ahaha cant fucking spawn a tank again

literally want to banned emote here

just need 1 fucking kill in a tank to finish this BS

FINALLY

[dusky saffron]

Just do it

[strong parrot]

wow

this fucking

aod person in a 38t

drives right into me and i died

launched all 4 rockets hit him with the gun....smokes popped

and somehow he ends up killing me before i can kill him ...legit

self repair doesnt worth either

[solid hinge]

is it normal that battlefield 4 looks a bit blurry on xbox one?

[dusky saffron]

Probably not

[BFV] Where the hell do I find special assignment Proficiency? I've looked in special assignments it's not there!

[undone harbor]

When a weapon is lvl 5 you get the first proficiency challenge for that gun

[upper ore]

Then why doesn't it say that? It's confusing

[jagged vector]

It actually will say that if you check the progression on the weapon in question I’m quite sure

[upper ore]

Where?

[hollow solar]

when you select the weapon in your company

in the top right corner it has ur weapon level

click that

I'm on PS4

All gold on Boys AT Rifle acquired

[sacred junco]

literally joined a match 400-200 with all caps taken in Mercury in 4mins

a fucking snowball map

best player had 3k points

Just feels like a map where you can't do shit alone

[misty hill]

Try Narvik if you wanna feel alone

Or Fjell

[sacred junco]

map ends the moment you lock out the bottom lane and hold c

[coral fiber]

https://www.reddit.com/r/BattlefieldV/comments/bvnvm8/the_most_dramatic_bleed_out_scene/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share

Imagine being in that tank

Ouch

[solid hinge]

So the boys is a literal cannon

That right

What’s the optimal setup for it?

[serene patrol]

That gif actually happens more often on Mercury, starting to really enjoy that map

Wish it were a bit bigger, but it's way better than most of the other maps on Conquest

[formal valve]

I just held the E flag on Mercury by myself for 10 minutes from a onslaught of British infantry with nothing but my Kar98K, P38 and Switchblade. I took 21 down before a plane strafed me dead

Thy had snipers up the ASS

and at one point, before a saint of a bomber dropped a supply drop on my location, i was down to only my knife and throwing blades. I moved toward the building to the north, and let them start capping the objective. I killed 5 with my Switchblade and 4 with my throwing knives

[ripe tendon]

BF1 or BFV, which is better

[formal valve]

I defended that position for so long

At one point I got saddened and tired of seeing the kill feed filled with those ass holes on the hill with Boys firing down in teams on my poor team. So I climbed the hill outside there spawn under heavy suppressing plane fire and took down 5 snipers and one Machine gunner

Then fell back to E to get more ammo

[serene patrol]

BFV has better UI and more refined gameplay, therefore its better

[formal valve]

I captured a clip of me taking them down

I had considered smoke.

But I felt if I was going to defend I might need throwing knives for close calls

I was right

Hell, I got so desperate at one point I had to finish a poor bastard with a flare pistol

He was at like 7 health tho, he didn’t suffer long

Lmao

I feel like a veteran recounting his memory

[neon kayak]

hello

[formal valve]

I use Karabiner98Kurtz with ironsights, a Walther P38, a Fallschirmjager blade, sniper combat role, spotting flare and Spawn Beacon

[neon kayak]

Doesn't the ross have the fastest bullet velocity

hey bepis how you doing

[solid hinge]

Boys is great

It’s literally a BF4 sniper

Lmao

45-0

By using it like a k98

Y’all just call it shit

[neon kayak]

I have the BOYS completely golden

very nice looking weapon

why do people use the krag

I find it bad

[strong parrot]

its not a bf4 sniper...those you could use anywhere

the boys only works with a bipod that only works 43.6% of the time

and the places the bipod works is hit or miss

[solid hinge]

How I get custom pfp?

🤔

[tribal cairn]

Wierd Thing just happened

I was playing medic and it was near the end of the round,

I tossed a pouch to heal my teammate,

And all of a sudden

257 Points, Enemy Killed, Headshot bonus

Without a shot fired

So I now reserve the bragging right

To say that I killed a guy with a medical pouch

[tribal narwhal]

His sheer medical knowledge killed someone

[solid hinge]

Ze only wey to save a life

Iz to TAKE a life

[coral fiber]

Guys is bf4 premium worth buying?

[tribal cairn]

I mean, I didn't have any problems with it

It's your choice

[lucid maple]

does this server still do bf1

[rancid wadi]

Something's up with the damage numbers bc I got -98 with a kill marker after the pilot of a plane I was in crashed

And I keep getting +100 damage and no kill every few firefights

[icy sluice]

I killed a teammate

@solid hinge That's the Lewis Gun Predator Skin

To get it you need to level up the Lewis Gun to like... Level 4 I think

Level up Support class

Yes, that's the predator skin

Seeing as though you have the big mag, go to customize

You mean the color?

or the scope?

[solid hinge]

yo

i want to ask about the state of battlefield 4

is it alive?

and is it balanced unlike the garbage called bfv?

[formal valve]

BF4 and balanced don’t belong in the same sentence

[open portal]

@solid hinge if you're looking for some BF4 excitement, Level Gaming (formally known as LevelBF) will be running a BF4 32v32 revival tournament. https://i.imgur.com/Urx5EW8.png

[sacred junco]

man 64p bf1

is still a mess

Hey moratrs

hey attack planes

hey ilya muroments

hey smoke and bomb chokes 24/7

hey operation spawns that are right on top of the defense points meaning enemies can just spawn into the cap

you just end up dying more often to bombs that you have no control over rather than guns

I just don't miss any of that shit

[serene patrol]

It'd be better if we had BFV bombers in there too

[sacred junco]

game is fun without any of that

[serene patrol]

Then I could hide in the sky and kill everyone

way too many BF1 maps were death tunnels

[sacred junco]

I find the guns and infantry combat general fun

but Goddamn anything thats not a larger 64p or a small game mode

[serene patrol]

Yeah infantry combat is great, vehicles were good(besides the planes now that I played BFV)

[sacred junco]

is just the same goddamn choke explosion spam

[serene patrol]

like srsly the planes feels like such crap now if you've play BFV

[sacred junco]

How do you win Operations? literally kill everything in a cap before trying anyhting else

[solid hinge]

Actually I disagree

the planes are pretty good if you select the right upgrades

[serene patrol]

balance be damned, BFV planes fly so much better

[sacred junco]

they arent the death machines like in bf1

where people farm 100 kills a match just dropping frenades

[solid hinge]

I mean honestly they're like BF2 tanks

[sacred junco]

which I am totally fine with

[solid hinge]

but with the War Thunder tank mechanics

I like that

You need to be smart with a tank now

[sacred junco]

issue is game heavily favors medium/lights over heavies

[serene patrol]

still buff cannon infantry dmg

[sacred junco]

since heavies have few advantages against mediums

[solid hinge]

Hmm

[midnight nimbus]

I think BF4/BFV tanks are equally fun but problematic

but in different ways

[sacred junco]

bf4 are like hover tanks

[serene patrol]

I dont even care if you cant refill tank ammo, as long as cannons 1 shot infantry I'm good

[sacred junco]

and never liked being forced to choose ap/he

[midnight nimbus]

BF4 tanks are hyperinfantry

[solid hinge]

whenever I'm in the same room with a BF4 enemy tank I feel like an insurgent against an abrams

[sacred junco]

i can just use canisters if need be

[solid hinge]

That's how terrifyingly OP tanks in BF4 are

[sacred junco]

but still seems to be kinda silly

[serene patrol]

BF3 tanks were better lul

[midnight nimbus]

BF4 tanks aren't OP

BF3 tanks were

[serene patrol]

^

unlimited ammo, proximity

[solid hinge]

Never really played BF3

[sacred junco]

and bf4 tank combat are all about moving backwards very quickly

[midnight nimbus]

one engineer can carry enough RPGs to kill two tanks in BF4

[solid hinge]

wait what do you mean by unlimited ammo in BF3 though

[sacred junco]

and spamming defesnive maneuvers quickly and proficiently

[serene patrol]

by unlimited ammo I mean never having to wait for ammo to replinish

[midnight nimbus]

BF3 tanks didn't have ammo pool

[solid hinge]

BF4 has the same unlimited ammo thing

holy shit

[midnight nimbus]

BF4 ammo pool is much more based

[sacred junco]

BF4 has the cache

[serene patrol]

you just fire one shell after another

[solid hinge]

Is DICE actually fucking stupid lol

[midnight nimbus]

you could actually run out of ammo in the short run in BF4

[solid hinge]

That is NOT a good game mechanic at all

[midnight nimbus]

and you actually can run out of ammo in a 1v1

[serene patrol]

Choppers were the same, you could just unload rockets

5 seconds later, refilled again

[midnight nimbus]

ammo pool is the best vehicle mechanic in BF

period

[solid hinge]

It's either ammo pool or resupply stations

both I like honestly

[serene patrol]

naaaah lets go back to BF3 ammo

[solid hinge]

no

[midnight nimbus]

resupply station is dumb af

it's just busy work

[solid hinge]

BF3 ammo is literally just cheating

[serene patrol]

yeah but it was fun so idc

[prime pine]

Weirdly. I enjoy the ammo attrition in vehicles. Not so much with the repairing part though.

For bf5

[midnight nimbus]

BF3 ammo was fine in the context of the game

[solid hinge]

It's good honestly and there are plenty of 40 - 1 tankers which like it

[serene patrol]

Just have to ban the shitbuckets, then vehicles in BF3 would be better

[solid hinge]

But I played alot of war thunder so

I perfer it more than the ammo pool

[sacred junco]

ammo pool is harder to manage tbh

[midnight nimbus]

regular 70-0 tanker here, attrition is literally just busywork

it's just dumber than BF4 ammo pool but with an extra click tax

[serene patrol]

shitbucket ^

[solid hinge]

They're both okay methods

Like really

They're both fine, and plenty of games use the attrition method

[prime pine]

Im not a perfect tanker but i am capable of high streaks. Just need more ammo stations really.

[sacred junco]

thats just because you farm breakthrough maps that allow you to do with with impunity

[midnight nimbus]

ammo pool achieves a better result, but with less input tax

[sacred junco]

ammo pool force you off field more often though

[midnight nimbus]

ammo pool actually rewards skill much better than the BFV system

[serene patrol]

Mercury only has 1 fucking refill station AT SPAWN

lmao

[sacred junco]

since you can't shit ammo in succession

[midnight nimbus]

^

[prime pine]

Arras on breakthrough and rush are the worst offenders for vehicle resupply stations.

[midnight nimbus]

yes, and resupply stations result in really awkward flow

[serene patrol]

If the refill stations wernt so terribly spread out it wouldnt be as annoying

[sacred junco]

I do more using a valentine spamming 30+ rounds in 2-3 minutes

than forced to wait to reload every 5-6 rounds

[midnight nimbus]

there's a lot of breakthrough or rush maps where you don't wanna do anything as a tank bc you know you don't have good access to resupply in the next sector

so you wanna save it for the next one

and just do nothing instead

[solid hinge]

The reason why I like resupply stations is because realistically tanks in a battle don't keep on going at it and they normally go back to their base to resupply then come back

I would rather have that immersion

[sacred junco]

resupply station placements are a bit meandering

[midnight nimbus]

who cares ab realism

[solid hinge]

I mean

It's cool

[midnight nimbus]

infantry doesn't have to do it

[solid hinge]

They do

[midnight nimbus]

support has unlimited ammo packs

[solid hinge]

And it's not really hard because you're just going to ammo spots at a point

[serene patrol]

if it were realistic, there'd only be a refill station at spawn and no where else

[solid hinge]

I would like that for hardcore

not normalcore

[sacred junco]

I mean it does force decisions on me since I can't keep pushing caps in certain maps

where i cant just hug an ammo pool and spam rounds for 70+ kills

but its too contextual

[solid hinge]

Also it makes the ammo pool a very decisive thing

[midnight nimbus]

ammo pool would really improve BFV vehicle play

[sacred junco]

and very map dependent

[solid hinge]

er, ammo resupply point

[midnight nimbus]

especially since not all weapons are created equal

[sacred junco]

How about this

[midnight nimbus]

why does everything have the same cooldown in BFV

[sacred junco]

still have ammo stock but larger

[solid hinge]

Oooor

[sacred junco]

have an ammo pool system as well

[solid hinge]

Have actual tank rounds like in the older games

[midnight nimbus]

why do light tanks refill their ammo as fast as heavy tanks

[solid hinge]

but you still have to resupply

[sacred junco]

and increase fp and decerase fire rate of tanks in general

[midnight nimbus]

oh bc attrition

[solid hinge]

That's not attrition that's just the component of the same reload timers

[sacred junco]

spamming pea shooter cannons is kinda silly at times

[midnight nimbus]

attrition doesn't fix the lack of proper cooldown and regen

[solid hinge]

I mean

it's not like removing it will

[midnight nimbus]

bc you force physicality upon refilling ammo

wasn't an issue in BF4

[sacred junco]

I dont really mind physicality

[solid hinge]

I think additionally though, instead of ammo pool they could make engineers manually resupply tanks

[sacred junco]

and tbh its easier for me than BF4s system

[solid hinge]

with some sort of upgraded ammo crate

[sacred junco]

like in Firestorm?

[solid hinge]

Yeah

[sacred junco]

imagine

the amount of supports that would do that

they don't even know how to use a wrench

[solid hinge]

it would be an ammo supply box which has an ammo count

because infinite ammo boxes might be too broken imo

[midnight nimbus]

just go back to BF4 ammo pool
engineer combat role repping tanks improves ammo pool regen

[solid hinge]

That could also be it

instead of adding another gadget

[sacred junco]

i want to see if buffing firepower and splash with traded fire rate changes the dynamic a bit

[midnight nimbus]

I don't mind the turret turn rates if it didn't make your aim so fucky sometimes

[sacred junco]

should encourage more heavy tank usage if there splashes are much better

[midnight nimbus]

i don't mind RoF or damage for the most part

but tanks need to be slightly faster

tank sprint needs to come back

[solid hinge]

Turret turn rates they took from war thunder lmao

[midnight nimbus]

so you can hit irl max speeds

[sacred junco]

I feel like its a bit heavily skewed towards meds

with fast fp

[solid hinge]

I bet they play that shit sometimes and go 'yeah this can fit in BFV'

[sacred junco]

of just directly hitting infantry in quick sucession

[midnight nimbus]

lots of games do turret turn rates

tank TTK needs to be compressed

light tanks really aren't viable enough rn

medium tanks can compete against heavy tanks

[solid hinge]

I still can't believe BF3 had literal unlimited tank ammo

[midnight nimbus]

and vice versa

[sacred junco]

still not sure how lights fare

[midnight nimbus]

but light tanks get fukt by medium and heavy

[sacred junco]

had games where i unload 10-15 he rounds as a 38(t) on a churchil

[solid hinge]

I feel like 5 years from now BF will have unlimited pistol ammo or something stupid

[sacred junco]

and watch it not die

in cq

[midnight nimbus]

there's nothing wrong with unlimited ammo

honestly

[solid hinge]

For infantry?

no

[midnight nimbus]

unlimited ammo is based af

titanfall executed it perfectly

[solid hinge]

It breaks all fundamental principles of game design

[midnight nimbus]

not really

[sacred junco]

I dunno why they kept the ammo pool for anti titan weapons

[midnight nimbus]

bad players don't benefit from unlimited ammo
good players do

[sacred junco]

and also

[solid hinge]

yeah but you can use this argument for everything that is an obstacle to the player

[sacred junco]

Titanfall was kinda forced to do away with limited ammo

[solid hinge]

i.e, you can say health is also a detriment for skilled players

[sacred junco]

else no one would shoot grunts

[solid hinge]

so maybe just make every dude have no health bar

You can also say that spawning only from squad members is a detriment

[midnight nimbus]

faulty logic there

[solid hinge]

might as well them make it so that you can spawn from every player then

[midnight nimbus]

also yeah, squad only spawn is dumb

bc good players just squad swap anyways

look at top level BF3/4 comp strats

[solid hinge]

It's not about kills

It's about teamplay

Forget about kdr and help your team by repping and healing

[sacred junco]

teamplay is kind of dead in BF as a franchise

[midnight nimbus]

teamplay is a means to an end

[solid hinge]

Well yeah but

[midnight nimbus]

with the end being shooting people

which is what shooters are ultimately based upon

[solid hinge]

it's not about shooting people really

That's just a means to win the game

[midnight nimbus]

good teamplay enables you to shoot more people

[sacred junco]

and reviving is fairly irrelevant unless there are tickets or danger of squadwipes

[midnight nimbus]

objectives in FPS exist as a means to get people to shoot each other

[solid hinge]

Yeah but you don't remove these means to an end to make it easier to shoot people

[sacred junco]

Some games focus more on the shooting than others still though

[solid hinge]

the goal is to create obstructions to challenge the player

[midnight nimbus]

I'm not saying the means should be removed

[solid hinge]

Making it so that it's easier to be rewarded makes the game very basic

Just saying

[midnight nimbus]

but it's dumb when people don't think killing and "teamplay" are mutually inclusive

you can't cap objectives without killing the defenders

reviving isn't very effective without killing the enemies threatening your revive

[solid hinge]

Fair enough

[sacred junco]

then again its rare to see mortar trucks helping out too much

even with 50+ kills in operations

[midnight nimbus]

"teamplay" isn't a set of mechanics

[solid hinge]

I'm just saying that by removing elements for teamplay It's going to make the game worse IMO

BF1 had horrendous problems with stuff like this

[midnight nimbus]

CSGO has tons of teamplay

zero heals

zero revives

zero resupplies

[solid hinge]

CSGO is a different game

[midnight nimbus]

but tons of teamplay

[solid hinge]

Always way since the days of BF1942

you're comparing apples to oranges

[midnight nimbus]

teamplay is a mentality you want your playerbase to adopt

I'm not at all

you achieve good teamplay by creating a game where your self interest aligns with helping your teammates

[unique crater]

Remove The Boys OHK

[midnight nimbus]

look at BF3 for some good design

you throw down a medcrate to heal yourself first and foremost

but that medcrate has a good side effect of helping your teammates as well

good teamplay is achieved when helping yourself = helping others

[solid hinge]

I mean yeah but you still do this in BFV

[sacred junco]

With the amount of choices offered for a BF game though

giving everyone everything does not guarantee such results

without stymieing the excess of individual playstyle

to allow for a more cohesive gameplay

[solid hinge]

Yeah see you're going from the mentality - if one can do it, then clearly everyone can

That doesn't work all the time

[sacred junco]

because no matter what you will have people who prefer to act passively regardless of the rewards

[midnight nimbus]

Anthem unironically has a better stance on teamplay than BFV

"Strong alone, stronger together"

epic af

[sacred junco]

I don't think Anthem's issue are with the teamplay mechanics anyways

[solid hinge]

I would recommend you honestly look at Squad for better squadplay and teamplay

[midnight nimbus]

feeling useless bc your team doesn't cooperate sucks

[solid hinge]

(without dismissing it as a teamkilling shooter)

[midnight nimbus]

bc that's out of your control

feeling strong bc your team cooperates is awesome

[solid hinge]

Just saw a whole squad of Hanna’s

yeah but the goal is to mold the Battlefield fanbase to actually do teamplay

[midnight nimbus]

compared to other frostbite BFs, BFV is a lot of stick and not a lot of carrot

[sacred junco]

i dunno its a lot less dummying around still compared to most bf games

90% of content is around dummying around chokes anyways

and farming kills as the 1% vehicle player

BFV is a bit less excessive in that front

70-80+ kill tanks are annoying, but I prefer that to attacker planes with 100 service starts

[midnight nimbus]

people love to scream about how BF1 is an explosive fest, when in reality, your max explosive output is a fraction of what it is in BF3/4/V

[sacred junco]

Its very hard to see how BF games mechanics truly work in a smaller cohesive setting since most games are clusterfucks

Nah

[midnight nimbus]

bc BF1 kinda forgot about the "Strong alone" part

[sacred junco]

i just played BF1

a mess

Operations

dying more often to bombs is not an uncommon occurence

[midnight nimbus]

so you have to circle around to the question

[prime pine]

People sitting in the A7V is a lot more annoying than people in a tiger.

[sacred junco]

In fucking opeartions?

where half the maps have definite strong chokes?

[solid hinge]

You know about squads and all

[midnight nimbus]

why do you think BF1 has so much explosive spam when it's perhaps the weakest BF in terms of explosive power?

[sacred junco]

where you are forced to man through to get on top of?

[solid hinge]

maybe they should have been removed for BF1 and the sorts

[sacred junco]

Because you can throw it more

[solid hinge]

think about it - in WW1 there were no squads, first off

[sacred junco]

and explosive powers of bombers were very oppressive

[midnight nimbus]

no, explosive regen in BF1 is pretty slow too

[sacred junco]

Man I dunno man

I played BF1 just now

[midnight nimbus]

BF1 bombers are weaker than BFV's

[sacred junco]

feels like an explosive fest still

after playing BFV

[solid hinge]

and second of all look at BF1942, had no squads and you can just attack an objective with no worries of your squad not following you or not

it works for a casual shooter

maybe they should have done that for BF1

[sacred junco]

man I don't know what to say

I just don't feel that at all

[midnight nimbus]

like i said: it's bc BF1 doesn't nail the "Strong alone" part

[sacred junco]

if that's the claim

I have no idea what to say

[midnight nimbus]

you don't have enough agency as an individual

so you feel comfier spamming explosives in a zerg

even if it's not that effective

[sacred junco]

besides the fact that somehow I am wrong in supposing the map feels incredibly oppressive

while I don't feel as oppressed with it in BFV

[midnight nimbus]

not enough DPS

not enough individual zerg breaking ability

[sacred junco]

I cant not zerg

How the fuck do you not zerg attacking the last cap of Fao fortress

where do you go?

Where do you attack?

[midnight nimbus]

yeah exactly, guns aren't good enough

[sacred junco]

when enemies can attack you easily anywhere

[midnight nimbus]

you don't have enough power outside of the zerg

[solid hinge]

zerging is a human nature thing

it's only done because humans do it

[sacred junco]

and zergs are just fucked over because lanes are filled with explosives

[midnight nimbus]

other BFs allow you to break from the zerg and do well though

[sacred junco]

and even if you get in

[solid hinge]

Depends but yeah

[sacred junco]

a good bombing wrong fucks over everyone

[midnight nimbus]

and the problem is that BFV moves away from that

[solid hinge]

I mean BFV also allows you to do better without a zerg

look at squad revives

[midnight nimbus]

no ammo

no explosives

[sacred junco]

i see 5-8 dead bodies pile up instantly from attacker planes regularly

[midnight nimbus]

health attrition

meh

[sacred junco]

I rarely died to bombers in BFV

[solid hinge]

I mean

[midnight nimbus]

vs BF3

[solid hinge]

divide the squad members with 4 classes

that's easy

[midnight nimbus]

240+ rounds for your AR

3 frags

9 RPGs

[sacred junco]

I dunno

[midnight nimbus]

no health attrition

mmmmmm

[sacred junco]

I found BFV much easier to play

alone

[midnight nimbus]

if you wanna break from the zerg, you can do so really effectively

[sacred junco]

BF1 I have no power over huge contested caps in general

[midnight nimbus]

BF1/BFV strip too much power from the individual, just in different ways

[sacred junco]

even if I do some sneaky shit seeing a attacker planes drop nades on me for the 3rd time in a row

wiping all medics in the front

I don't feel too powerless in BFV really

the worst thing is not being able to break forts as medic mostly

[midnight nimbus]

we need a return to BF3/4

[sacred junco]

I don't want that either

[midnight nimbus]

complex teamplay comes after individuals are strong enough to take care of themselves

[sacred junco]

I quit from playing BF4

[midnight nimbus]

yeah i can't play BF4 anymore either, but not bc of any mechanics or anything

RSP ruined the game for me

[solid hinge]

You have some interesting opinions

almost everyone loves RSP and wants it

[midnight nimbus]

dude all the NA servers left

[solid hinge]

oh

[midnight nimbus]

stupid rulesets

[solid hinge]

yeah that makes sense

[midnight nimbus]

or they auto ban you for stats or some shit

can't play EU PC with my friends bc ping kick or equally bad rulesets

[solid hinge]

DICE stopped their official servers for BF4 right?

[midnight nimbus]

no nice vanilla experiences left

closest i can get to vanilla BF4 is TDM, but that gets old sometimes

[sacred junco]

yeah I hate RSPs

limited server rules I can handle

[midnight nimbus]

weapon/gadget bans are so AIDS

any tampering to vehicle spawn rate makes the game unplayable

[round latch]

Iam hopping back into bf5. Any recommendations for guns. This probably an annoying question

[midnight nimbus]

or to ticket count

[solid hinge]

RSPs are good when they have actual rotation servers with people and normals

but the metro spam ones are horrendous

[sacred junco]

I mean CoD Blops I remember added servers

and a year down the line nothing besides hardcore rp servers, and nuketown

and like one normal server that rotated 3 maps-one of them being nuketown

[solid hinge]

depends

in BF4 you had servers like MiA which were active with people

(now dead though RIP)

[sacred junco]

i just don't have faith in the majority choosing what (I) want

Id much prefer having the good and the bad of official rotations

than people deciding what they want to play

i guess it is inevtiable

but still

[midnight nimbus]

map rotations aren't the worst part of RSP

I don't mind 24/7 servers

i don't like them

[solid hinge]

They're also really good for clans

[midnight nimbus]

but i don't hate them

[slate carbon]

why are the servers so ass?

[midnight nimbus]

it's the modified rulesets i hate

and the fact that badminning can exist

https://www.reddit.com/r/battlefield_4/comments/bvpbhd/there_goes_all_hope_of_ever_unlocking_the_mpx/
get RSPed

[solid hinge]

oh yeah

I forgot about fake player counts for a minute

[sacred junco]

Not the one to rant about creator's "vision" but its hard to tell what the game was supposed to be like with double tix servers and insta respawn with weird rules

[midnight nimbus]

oh yeah server seeding is AIDS too

everything looks like 63/64

in reality there's only 3 people in every server

epic

[solid hinge]

If you're on battlelog always use a plugin to really check

[sacred junco]

why is that a thing really

server seeding

[solid hinge]

I have no idea honestly

I think it's to get people to think that BF4 is really active

[midnight nimbus]

yeah but having to use a browser plug-in just to make a game playable

very cool

it was okay back when BF4 was active

[sacred junco]

hey ppl miss it now tho

[midnight nimbus]

getting a 48/64 server to fill up fast

[solid hinge]

only reddit though

[prime pine]

I wish they made the bleed out and respawning time reliable.

Cause
