PTFO is nice and so the meatgrind

[ebon trench]

I like squad cq

[solid hinge]

London air map

[lavish raptor]

[solid hinge]

You can

Crash into big Ben and it destroys like the arras church tower

Neville nights

[lavish raptor]

watch out with them tower plane crashings

[ebon trench]

Gib me bf1 maps but aged ahead a few decades

[solid hinge]

One of the best maps in bf1

Arras kinda

[pale anvil]

is there a way to take on new assigments without leaving a current session?

[lavish raptor]

nope

[ebon trench]

Lol no

It's a basic feature that should have been there ages ago no?

[pale anvil]

im trying real hard to enjoy this game atm lol

[solid hinge]

I think I may just play some bf4

Then wait for Pacific

[lavish raptor]

bfv grind

;-;

[ebon trench]

I know I'm a shit player but please matchmaking. Stop putting me into squads full of window lickers without a shred of competence

[lavish raptor]

oh you said balancing?

well uh

yeah

no

-dice

[ebon trench]

Oh this autobalancing feature? Yeah we removed that for firestorm lmao

Whoops

[solid hinge]

dear player,

yeah no

Yours Faithfully,
DICE

[lavish raptor]

thats pretty factual

[ebon trench]

I honestly believe firestorm is a waste of resources and it should have been a seperate title altogether

[lavish raptor]

id give up any chance of balance

if theyd add grind

allimsaying...

[solid hinge]

Firestorm is stupid and should be free to play

[ebon trench]

Fuck battle Royale as a game mode

Its not fun at all to me

[solid hinge]

It's alright honestly

[ebon trench]

I refuse to play any of it on principle

[solid hinge]

If you actually play with friends

[lavish raptor]

nardwuar 🎵

[solid hinge]

Ah yes, I remember when my family fought their own allies and the enemies whilst being pursued by a ring of fire

[tough lake]

i actually enjoy this game

[lavish raptor]

^

same

[tough lake]

except firestorm

i dont like battleroyale

at all

[lavish raptor]

firestorm isnt bad but

[solid hinge]

Firestorm combat requires thought process

[ebon trench]

It really felt shoehorned into this by EA

[lavish raptor]

it fits a small demographic of people who dont still play pubg

[solid hinge]

It's a lot more scarier

I love it

[delicate herald]

Firestorm has too many fucking try hards

[tough lake]

EA actually shoved some weird decision into dice

[solid hinge]

For a ww2 game I don’t think it should be made into a silly battle royale

[ebon trench]

"gotta get that sweet fortnight cash" - EA

[delicate herald]

^ exactly. Lol

[tough lake]

like this trailer lmao

bruh i want my disabled soldiers back in the game

wheelchair skins

[ebon trench]

The only good thing was the reveal trailer music for firestorm

Burning down the house my dude

[tough lake]

the storymode trailer was awesome

should have been the first trailer

[solid hinge]

Considering that many people had family that fought in ww2, they may want a fun shooter with the element of a real war and not camping at rifles and hackers

Wait

[ebon trench]

I admit I cried during both the bf1 and v single player trailers a bit

Bf1 way more

[solid hinge]

Is 12 pm midnight or afternoon?

[lavish raptor]

uhhhh

[solid hinge]

“Play war thunder” no

[tough lake]

solveig story and the last tiger were amazing

[lavish raptor]

UHHHHH

warthunder is great

dont

[solid hinge]

Afternoon

Oh

12am Is midnight?

[delicate herald]

Yes

[solid hinge]

Yes

[stiff warren]

yes

[ebon trench]

I cried at the end of Avanti savoia fuck you it still hurts

[solid hinge]

THATS WIERD

[ebon trench]

The runner too

[lavish raptor]

aight but

[ebon trench]

Cuz I'm an Aussie and that shits my history

[solid hinge]

Avanti savoia, Gallipoli, and the plane mission were good

[lavish raptor]

@solid hinge take it back

[tough lake]

i still get depressed when i hear the solveig sad theme song

[lavish raptor]

now

[solid hinge]

I wish I could but

I can’t

[lavish raptor]

warthunder is a great game

[delicate herald]

Nah. It WAS a great game.

[lavish raptor]

take it back or i will tell dice to not make bring back grind in 3 years

it still is

[delicate herald]

No

[lavish raptor]

yes

[solid hinge]

I have not played it, so therefore I may criticise it

[delicate herald]

No

[lavish raptor]

yes

[delicate herald]

No

[lavish raptor]

yes

lmao

[delicate herald]

No

[coral fiber]

What's going on here?

[ebon trench]

I think one of the apocalypse main menu music themes when it dropped for bf1 reminded me of a man who'd survived the war and stood among his mates graves and sobbed

[lavish raptor]

uhhh

nothing....

[ebon trench]

Some sad orchestral piece

[delicate herald]

Haha! I win!

[solid hinge]

Friendly chat about the battlefield franchise

[ebon trench]

Fantastic work done on that soundtrack for bf1 tbh

[lavish raptor]

fair enough good sir

when i get sad i log in and remember i have the t80u

and then im not sad

[ebon trench]

Storm of Steel really captured the panic

[delicate herald]

BF1 had a great soundtrack.

[solid hinge]

Bf1 looked good, but that doesn’t make up for no recoil patterns and the sweet spot that made everyone American sniper

[lavish raptor]

^

yep

gunplay is as easy as fucking chewing gum

bfv gunplay is per gun but balanced

[ebon trench]

I loved the intro mission of bf1 campaign the "you aren't expected to survive" bit was chilling

[lavish raptor]

theres a reason so many people bitch about medic on bfv lol

[solid hinge]

Xbox medics aren’t great, they mainly play for the smgs

[ebon trench]

I know a bloke who bitches about the peacekeeper being too Op

[solid hinge]

Shush don’t tell devotedmedic

[lavish raptor]

i just the trombinico

i just

yes

[ebon trench]

Peacekeeper bros where you at

I love that revolver

I wish the SAA came back to bfv

[lavish raptor]

oh the revy

[ebon trench]

Hearing that distinctive 4 stage click on hammer pull back is so good

[solid hinge]

Bf1 was scary, the voice lines were too human

[ebon trench]

The screams man

[solid hinge]

The American soldiers didn’t know what was happening so they sounded really upset

[ebon trench]

It honestly had the atmosphere down pat. When it really went intense I felt extremely immersed

[prime pine]

"That son of a bitch is an enemy medic!"

The voice lines were so goddamn impactful.

[lavish raptor]

lol

i shoot the medics first in 5

[ebon trench]

Oh shit if you find the time listen to the voice lines some dude ripped. The shellshocked lines screaming to stop shooting was chilling to the bone

[lavish raptor]

srry not srry

[solid hinge]

👀

Oh no he knows

[lavish raptor]

fuck

[prime pine]

I remember losing my cool hearing a soldier on bf3 died.

[wet thorn]

[ebon trench]

"we ain't supposed to be here!" "Just stop shooting, j-just stop shooting!!!"

[prime pine]

That got me for a good 20 minutes until i settled.

[ebon trench]

The people who voice the Americans in bf1 did such a fucking good job

[wet thorn]

[lavish raptor]

man idk what the fuck got yall fucked up by dice atmosphere but shieet

[prime pine]

Oh yeah. The one quote i hear for bf5 the most would be "I want to go home, i want to go home!" when you shoot some bastard.

[lavish raptor]

pork chop

[delicate herald]

Man all you guys talking about being seriously impacted makes feel like a terrible person for not even noticing. 😂

[prime pine]

Yeah the american lines i think were the most sincere.

[solid hinge]

ME OLD MUCKER

[ebon trench]

Allo ol friend

[solid hinge]

Look up a voice line vid for bf1

[prime pine]

The german and american lines were i gelt the strongest

[ebon trench]

Some of the confused and shellshocked German lines were impactful as well

[prime pine]

"Bloody bugger bloody bugger bloody bugger!"

[solid hinge]

Even the Germans were good to each other, they said hi when you spawned in

[prime pine]

Literally they say that

[ebon trench]

They're just as frightened.

And that sells it

[solid hinge]

It’s a long long way to

MEIN OLD MUCKER

[ebon trench]

Fucking amazing job on the voicework

[solid hinge]

DICE please add chants to squads in multiplayer

[prime pine]

Everyone is just as frightened. Thats what bf1 did so well. It was a darker game. But at the same time in its own battlefield way it kept it light.

Does that make sense?

[ebon trench]

Yeah

[solid hinge]

I want to hear my American soldiers yell the lyrics to boogie woogie bugle boy

[prime pine]

You have fuckers launching vehicles into the other side of the map

[lavish raptor]

is it bad me and my german friend just mock them as they die

sAnITaTe

[ebon trench]

Tbh the bit where Edwards tries to restart black Bess is on my list of fave moments of bf1

[solid hinge]

Hilfe mei!!!!

[prime pine]

You wouldnt believe how fucking refreshing it was hearing the Americans on the last tiger

[lavish raptor]

helffe

[prime pine]

Hilf mir

Hilf mir, Sanitater, Bitte?

[solid hinge]

If I don’t hear a howdy when I spawn in on the next chapter in bfv I will be a n g e r y

[lavish raptor]

i have the nordic inbred ginger character as my medic on germans

and her voice is so fucking annoying i love it

[ebon trench]

Ive dun everyfing roight. Everyfing. Oive lived my live by the manual. BY THE MANUAL

[icy sluice]

Ingrid?

[lavish raptor]

YES

HAHAHHAHAH

[solid hinge]

Helmut gang

[icy sluice]

She's the only woman I hide their face with entirely

[lavish raptor]

HAHAHHAHA

[icy sluice]

I use Divining Rod on her face

[lavish raptor]

shes what the germans call kevin

[ebon trench]

I literally run female Helmut.

The only normal looking one to me

[lavish raptor]

they made nice char models in bfv

[solid hinge]

Wilhelm Is the best character for the Germans. You literally cannot convince me otherwise

[icy sluice]

I use Margot too

oh and Helga

[solid hinge]

Wilhelm and George

[icy sluice]

...and Eva

[lavish raptor]

srry but im not bald

[icy sluice]

You guys mean the Elite Wilhelm?

[ebon trench]

I use Frank for my allied assault

[solid hinge]

No

No

The uhh

Young looking dude

[icy sluice]

Yeah they changed his name to Harald

[solid hinge]

Oh

Oh yeah I forgot

I don't like using harolds actusl hair I prefer him with the buzzcut

Because he's ginger

[prime pine]

Ilse!

[icy sluice]

I use George (Allied Harald) as my medic

[ebon trench]

Isn't it still Wilhelm tannstedt now?

[icy sluice]

Ilse is cool looking

[prime pine]

I have her set for assault and support

[ebon trench]

I run Helmut on assault

I think the dude with the square as feck jaw on medic

Dead eye stare for support

[icy sluice]

Ilse is my Medic

[solid hinge]

I like to use helmut/ Christian for assault, harald/George for medic, Leo/kurt for support, Stanley/? For recon

Harold is just so perfect for germans

And russians maybe

[icy sluice]

Still grateful someone took a clip of me as Ilse being a badass
https://streamable.com/ggje5

[ebon trench]

I would like more German characters tho

Be nice to have some variety and have some that are made only for the German faction

[lavish raptor]

ride with the mob hum to allah check in with me then do your job ferg is the name and baller did the chain

[solid hinge]

Word up

[lavish raptor]

im 7 levels away from 100

gotta catch up, shitbuckets in thegreatabroads basement are over flowing

[echo turtle]

Ngl I aim to kill people with elite skins

[solid hinge]

Elite skins are cheaper than fortnites £20 skins

[lavish raptor]

more expensive then a footlong at subway

[echo turtle]

Looks like they give players confidence boosts

[solid hinge]

Damn bro don’t bring up subway

[lavish raptor]

and turkey ham bacon with american cheese is better then a skin

god damn now im hungry

[solid hinge]

I’m dying for a steak and cheese, hearty Italian toasted, lettuce onions olives pickles peppers and southwest sauce

[echo turtle]

Free cheeseburger day

[ebon trench]

Pizza toasted sanga

[solid hinge]

Nah

My subway is a Big Mac essentially

[ebon trench]

Make a pizza on some bread and make a sandwich

[solid hinge]

It's hearty italian, teriyaki chicken, bbq sauce, cucumber and lettuce

No cheese

[coral fiber]

Head on
Apply directly to the forehead

[solid hinge]

And Mac Donald’s is right next to my subway haha

[lavish raptor]

its your money tho

why should i care what you spend it on lol

[solid hinge]

Subway

[ebon trench]

I'm literally round the corner from a maccas

[solid hinge]

Me too

I’m just on some street, closest thing is a hospice and a park

I'm in essex there's no parks

[echo turtle]

I live by a strip of restaurants

[lavish raptor]

people gotta stop budging into others financial business lol

like ok cool you spent 10$ on a game you enjoy

[solid hinge]

Ah yes my sub with Gatorade and Doritos

[lavish raptor]

gatorade and subway

delicious and relatively healthy

• electrolyes

keep that depression away and energy peeked

[solid hinge]

Toasted is the way to go

[lavish raptor]

non toasted TBH is the best

[echo turtle]

Flatbread has to be toasted

[lavish raptor]

with lettuce tomato and american cheese

[solid hinge]

Cheese is great if you get the right cheese

Basic cheese is ok

Pepper jack is some hot stuff ba bey

[echo turtle]

Order a large meat man and some Pepsi

[solid hinge]

“NEW CHAPTER COMING SOON”

Don’t give me hope.

[echo turtle]

Chap 4.5: A False Hope

[solid hinge]

You like knives?

[echo turtle]

Yeah

[solid hinge]

Well here’s some more go melee

[echo turtle]

If we get a machete I'll give em 50 bucks

[solid hinge]

Katana

Bipod knife

[echo turtle]

Luftwaffe machete

They were somewhat uncommon

[delicate herald]

Ka-Bar fighting knife

[solid hinge]

First game on in a while, been playing bl3

Doing 1 and 4

[hybrid dock]

they should do scope knife

[lavish raptor]

found a clan called note, been in there squad on conquest for the last 2 games just meddin n shit

we carrying the team

[hybrid dock]

since they already did bipod knife

[lavish raptor]

feels good

also we should get a giant tribal knife

like one of those fucking HUGE knives you see from tribes

i live in oklahoma, and native tribes still have huge fuckin knives from there ancestors

[solid hinge]

Instead of go go go, we should be able to have a chant like it’s a long long way to Tipperary

[echo turtle]

"GET TO THE FUCKING OBJECTIVE SOLDIER, WE ARE LOSING THIS ONE"

[solid hinge]

Maybe if you were shooting you would stop singing and then start again after you stopped

“I don’t like the look of that over there”

[echo turtle]

The laid back "commanders" feel out of place for WW2

[solid hinge]

Tell me bridger

Do you like the seaside?

[prime pine]

The british annluncer sounded so depressed in the alpha

"Objective fox... We have lost it"

"We have captured objective charlie"

Alongside being more staticy

[lavish raptor]

MAN

this is so fun

trombonico, good squad, runnin and medding

my goal is to get on the leaderboards for revives

[sweet pawn]

oh no

not that noob tube

[prime pine]

Oh yeah i keep on forgetting it has a grenade launvher

Launcher

Wish AT grenade pistol actually killed infantry with direct impacts.

[sweet pawn]

right?

that would actually be better

[mystic tinsel]

so many cheats in bf1

every game

[lavish raptor]

the korean squad

said they need me

i joined them again

😄

[sacred jackal]

Hey

How come the firestorm

Is even worse than it was few months ago

Well, when the game got released basically

Like, how incompetent do you have to be, in order to downgrade your game

[midnight nimbus]

well

no one plays FS anymore 🤷

[echo turtle]

Think it's a loot issue

Plus they have the matches set with seeds

[solid hinge]

2018 had a battle royale problem

[echo turtle]

"Hey guys let's make a BR that drops 5 months after launch a main selling point"

[midnight nimbus]

leave BR to the BR-only games

just do BF pls

[echo turtle]

It worked out for BO4 because it had no actual campaign

[solid hinge]

Dice kinda shot themselves in the foot with firestorm

Bo4 blackout worked because it was fun, it featured plenty of cool vehicles and things to do, and it wasn’t limited to a ww2 setting

firestorm suffers from the bugs the rest of the game suffers

no thanks to hitreg failure in a battle royale

combine that with essentially 1 update since it came out and the recent breaking of loot

Remove firestorm, bring a dlc where recker from bf4’s grandparents or something into campaign

campaign
no

firestorm > war stories

[midnight nimbus]

also cramming in gunplay designed for 100hp into a game mode where people have up to 300hp

kek

[solid hinge]

Bf4 managed it a bit

[echo turtle]

Wish Blackburn appeared randomly during the campaign

[midnight nimbus]

BF rly should be MP only

do what you do best

[solid hinge]

the war stories have pretty cut scenes and stuff but the gameplay is ridiculously generic and boring

With a new audience comes new ideas

and they're so short you dont even have time to get attached to the characters

They must want to focus on squad conquest because it brings the elements of bf into a small map, which is not what I enjoy

they put far too much effort into the war stories

[echo turtle]

They banked on nordlys being a heavy emotional story

[solid hinge]

they gave up on 5v5 so they dont really want small stuff either

idk what they're doing

everything they've added has been substandard so far

co-op is not only painfully shit but didnt even have matchmaking on release

dead before it even existed

the training range cant do specs on guns or vehicles; essentially useless

Ah well, gets assignments done quick and easy

firestorm had novelty going for it but has had literally 1 update since it released and multiple bugs that arent being fixed anywhere close to fast enough

Bad company 3 will save the franchises decline

Assignments shouldnt even be beatable in combined arms

Touch wood

Defeats the purpose of assignments

though assignments are shit in the first place

[echo turtle]

They need to rework the assignments even if it's a small change

[solid hinge]

so

[lavish raptor]

omg

im having legit so much fun playing as a frontline medic with trombone on conquest

[solid hinge]

the standard multiplayer is the only thing in the game id call not awful right now but it still suffers from vehicle imbalances

Trombone is fun..

[lavish raptor]

i love it

[solid hinge]

Doot

[echo turtle]

Get 10 kills while hipfiring in an objective zone in a life
Get 20 kills while in an objective zone in a round

[solid hinge]

Get 2 assists while laying on your back with the bipod deployed

[echo turtle]

Slap 50 kills while hipfiring in a objective zone with no round/life requirements and people who are going out of their way to finish the assignments might start playing regularly

[solid hinge]

Purchase boins (please the dev team is running out of pot noodle and lucozade)

[echo turtle]

^ pay to skip an assignment and get the reward

[solid hinge]

Pay to look über hip and swag

😎

[echo turtle]

Instead of full on buying a gun you're given an easy assignment

Or you rent the gun to complete the assignment

[solid hinge]

they used to have a secret no round/life requirement option and they removed it

Ahh

which was a terrible, terrible decision

[sacred jackal]

I bought the game for firestorm only

[solid hinge]

Oh

[sacred jackal]

Im not really the type of casual player that would just sit and play conquest

Or whatever the game offers

[echo turtle]

[hybrid dock]

yikes lol

[solid hinge]

Well that’s just

[sacred jackal]

And firestorm was somewhat good when released

Well, really rushed

But still decent

Besides the looting issue

[solid hinge]

I mean I would play conquest, you would enjoy it

[sacred jackal]

And here iam after several months thinking they maybe adapted different better looting system

[solid hinge]

Even tdm

[sacred jackal]

And to my surprise, everything is even worse

[hybrid dock]

lmao you thought dice would fix their game in a few months?

[echo turtle]

Well it was Criterion's project

[sacred jackal]

I played few games with mate and were legit unable to pick up meds

[solid hinge]

Dice has gone downhill with bfv, I just hope that they realise with bad company 3 why people like bad company

And bf aswell

[sacred jackal]

I spent $30 on this game

Just to get downgrading BR

[icy sluice]

looting is getting touched on next update

[sacred jackal]

Oh

Cool so its a bug

[solid hinge]

Anything is a bug

[sacred jackal]

I wondered how did they manage to make it even worse

That explains it

[hybrid dock]

this game is a bug

[sacred jackal]

I actually really like the gunplay regardless of all the other things

[icy sluice]

If you wanna know what the bars means
Green - Fixed in the next update
Yellow - Status Updated
Red - High Priority

[solid hinge]

We just need some proper cool lad who just comes into studios and says “yeah no”

[echo turtle]

Why does it have all three

[sacred jackal]

Thanks mr moderator

Glad to hear fix is gonna be pushed

[icy sluice]

If you want a link to the trello board, it should be the top pinned message

[hybrid dock]

where is operation metro

[icy sluice]

Trello Board gets updated Weekly

Next update @hybrid dock

[hybrid dock]

obviously

[icy sluice]

You did ask

[hybrid dock]

when is that and don't you say soon

[echo turtle]

We getting the c96?

[hybrid dock]

yes

[echo turtle]

Extremely aggressive recon is a go

[icy sluice]

They're still getting the release date on it because they don't exactly decide on the release date for updates

[solid hinge]

”Coming soon” croaked DICE as the dev team were slowly fixing the trees that render in like a ps2 game.

[icy sluice]

Also, this is going to happen

[hybrid dock]

boo

[solid hinge]

at last

they took their time with that one

You have done some reconnaissance

[icy sluice]

It is in the name

[hybrid dock]

why remove all the fun

[echo turtle]

I've never seen that in any of the games I've played

[solid hinge]

Truly is, reconnaissance raptor

Are they bringing out the revamped frontlines next update? @icy sluice

[icy sluice]

I do not know

[solid hinge]

I wish

[hybrid dock]

this would be akin to adding out of combat zone on the tower on oman

[solid hinge]

[hybrid dock]

smh

[icy sluice]

They will be releasing patch nodes for the update ... sigh soon. Once they finalize everything it should be 8-9 pages worth of notes

[solid hinge]

Because they dont have any effective anti vehicle tools for range

So infantry get farmed by tanks on the hanger

[hybrid dock]

AT guns

and the tank runs out of ammo

[zenith pendant]

Hahahhahahahhahahahahahhahaga

[solid hinge]

Patched a glitch in which the STG 44 was too easy.

[zenith pendant]

Hahhahahahahhahahah

At guns

On Aerodrome

[solid hinge]

If the tank knows where the AT guns are then they're basically useless

[zenith pendant]

Hahhahahahahhahahahah

[solid hinge]

and what cloud said

[zenith pendant]

Ah

[echo turtle]

Have people not figured out how the drop works on the Faust?

[zenith pendant]

Brother none of them even face the hangar

What are you talking about

[hybrid dock]

they will run out of ammo

[solid hinge]

The tanks run out eventually but that's a good 30 rounds for a lot of the tanks

[hybrid dock]

it's not forever

[solid hinge]

And then they only take a couple minutes to resupply

[zenith pendant]

Ye then 1 minuute of intermission

And then back to blasting

[solid hinge]

I wish tanks required more infantry around them or else they would not be effective

[zenith pendant]

So much for respite

[soft storm]

Tanks already suck

[solid hinge]

Would also bring out a new support archetype

[soft storm]

What more you want

[solid hinge]

vehicle balance is pretty shoddy

[echo turtle]

Panzershrek

[zenith pendant]

Tanks sucking and a literal abuse spot

Are 2 different things

[solid hinge]

tanks are literally untouchable at range but borderline useless up close

[hybrid dock]

I think that you should be able to climb some of the mountains of fjell

[soft storm]

New change: all players have a damage buff aura for vehicles

[zenith pendant]

Bwaghahahahahah

[soft storm]

Vehicles have been nerfed to round this out

[zenith pendant]

Jenkins come closer

[echo turtle]

Is it the vehicle scrapper perk for the assault?

[zenith pendant]

My shells dont explode as much

[midnight nimbus]

requiring infy support for tanks is a silly meme

tbh

that kinda defeats the whole purpose

[echo turtle]

Because it's only useful when you're trying to rack up points and spotting tanks

[hybrid dock]

it's not like that's what tanks were made for or anything

[midnight nimbus]

whole point of tanking is providing support for your infy

[solid hinge]

Would promote squad play if your squad is in a tank, but then there isn’t really a point since you can smoke and roll out

[midnight nimbus]

make the enemy focus on you instead of the infy

not very useful when the infy has to bunch up around you

[solid hinge]

Having enemies dancing around your tank throwing dynamite on you while you can't hit them is annoying though

[zenith pendant]

Or punish them for focusing infy around you

By blowing them up

[midnight nimbus]

and BF is already zergy enough

i don't want too add further reasons for people to blob up

literally just becoming JU88 bait

[solid hinge]

Tank cover is good to use, if you don’t want to feel the pain

[midnight nimbus]

like in BF4, if i'm tanking or playing MAA on Zavod

the whole point is to allow me to close a lane myself

so my team can push elsewhere

[solid hinge]

if the tanks are close enough to take cover behind, they're usually having a lot of explosives tossed at them

which doesnt make them very good cover

[midnight nimbus]

stupid to make infy need to blob up behind the tank

vehicles are literally created as force multipliers irl

if the vehicle now needs a blob to be effective, it's not a force multiplier

[solid hinge]

a couple of people with the tank for repairs and stuff are nice but people should probably be elsewhere

[midnight nimbus]

entire point of choosing a vehicle is to allow your teammates to be elsewhere

[solid hinge]

unless you have 30 seconds left to capture the last objective so everyones zerging the point

[hybrid dock]

in bf4 I had squads patrol with btrs and infantry

[midnight nimbus]

bc you're powerful enough to handle situations alone or with few teammates

[hybrid dock]

engineers protected the btrs from air and repaired

[midnight nimbus]

no need to send 10 guys to an objective when one tank and 3-4 guys is enough

[zenith pendant]

Why tankers repair vehicles twice as fast as engi support

[midnight nimbus]

imo, all tanks need medcrates built in

[solid hinge]

so your engie support can drive the tank while you repair it

[midnight nimbus]

^

[solid hinge]

bad design choice

if the most efficient way to use the tank is to swap with someone else

[midnight nimbus]

or all tanks need resources on them for infy

if you wanna encourage infy to support them

less stick, more carrot

[solid hinge]

that being said, I've won a lot of tank fights because I get out and repair it from behind

because for some reason you can outrepair their dps

[midnight nimbus]

honestly, i'm not a big fan of the repair mechanic in general

[solid hinge]

terrible

It's terrible

[midnight nimbus]

it really becomes way too strong

and i don't think we need to encourage people to blob

there's plenty of ways to support armor without being a repairasite

[solid hinge]

I've beaten multiple 6pdr valentines with stubby panzer 4 because I get out and repair myself

Which is.. dumb

[midnight nimbus]

tanks just need auto regen

no more repair

it's just silly and kinda tedious

[solid hinge]

I like the repair conceptually

[midnight nimbus]

in practice, it's just stupid

like in BF4, if i'm standing still somewhere safe, i'm going to be repairing anyways

[solid hinge]

it works as a way of making you vulnerable

[midnight nimbus]

might as well let me get health back without having to get out and hold LMB at my tank

[solid hinge]

Oh yeah I was thinking about inside repairing

outside repairing is weird

[midnight nimbus]

well internal repairing, you're going to do it whenever you're standing still and safe anyways, right?

might as well have auto regen

[solid hinge]

auto regen works while moving

[midnight nimbus]

you can change it Halo style

where auto regen is faster stationary than moving

[solid hinge]

ok that would be pretty good

[midnight nimbus]

and change initiation thresholds for stationary vs moving

[solid hinge]

I like that idea

[midnight nimbus]

if you're standing still, it takes longer to start, but the regen happens faster

if you're moving, it starts sooner, but happens slower

as to disincentivize camping a little

[solid hinge]

What happens if you move to start it earlier and then stop moving for the added bonus

[native mural]

Evening fellas

[lavish raptor]

hey

[hazy wasp]

eh, Vehicles should be used in conjunction with your squad

[midnight nimbus]

@solid hinge I think that would be fair

bc you're disengaging from combat

that's the entire ideal of healing in vidya

you don't get to heal and fight, the best healing you'll get is out of fight

and using a vehicle with your squad doesn't have to mean infy butthugging your vehicle

I hate this idea that teamplay has to mean teammates mashed up against each other

and I'm not particularly invested in the idea of squadplay either

[dusky apex]

e

[midnight nimbus]

play with your team, the people in your squad aren't necessarily any more important than people on your team

[echo turtle]

Once you get an organized team going you're unstoppable

[red kindle]

battlefield

battlefield 4

is

[reef mountain]

if ya dont like squad play theres always cod

[lavish raptor]

or grind

bring grind back

;-;

[echo turtle]

If your squad has no coordination take a chance at joining a new one

[midnight nimbus]

squad play is just rly obligatory

even at the highest levels of play in BF, it's superfluous

[echo turtle]

Hate those that continue to request orders but proceed to do nothing as SL

[midnight nimbus]

the highest level of squad play is squad swapping anyways 🙂

[gray glade]

squad swapping is the BF version of wife swapping

[midnight nimbus]

too bad the full beauty of a squad bomb is hard to pull off

[dusky apex]

what should i get bf1 or bf5

[dense bone]

price for both?

[lavish raptor]

bf1 is like a buck

[dense bone]

bf1 for me is 40, bfv is 60

i wouldnt pay that price for either

bf1 15 bucks top, bfv 30 tops imo

[little raptor]

yooo

upcoming patch notes is 9 pages long

the trello apparently has like, 25 bugs fixed

[lusty root]

new content this week?

[untold kayak]

when can we see the patch notes?

[weak marsh]

No

Next next week

Next week patch notes

[untold kayak]

i thought w get update 4.6 is september

they delaye it?

[lavish raptor]

yo @midnight nimbus can you link that vehicle guide again

[solid hinge]

They've finally got long patch notes again

They've finally got long patch notes again

[midnight nimbus]

https://forum.sym.gg/t/recommended-specs-for-bfv-vehicles-and-discussion-on-vehicle-meta/194
@lavish raptor

btw, new symthic forums do exist, and they've got some decent information on BFV

[lavish raptor]

thx

[midnight nimbus]

although it's pretty sparse compared to what sym community had for previous games

there's also archives for information on previous games that cover the ins and outs of everything

[solid hinge]

They've finally got long patch notes again

[gray glade]

if they nerfed the mmgs even more im gonna flip

[thorn wren]

@gray glade same

[feral grotto]

That's why I hate people that complain all the time..
While mmgs were exactly how they should've been.. people kept complaining about them instead of trying to find ways to deal with them.

And then the devs listen to them and starting dumbing down the game

[forest wadi]

Any idea when the next tides of war will start ?

[coral fiber]

Late october/early december

[forest wadi]

Oof

[gray glade]

there will be content before chapter 5

new metro map etc

[coral fiber]

Yep

[forest wadi]

What about al Sudan

Has that been scrapped ?

[short pecan]

soon

[crimson cloak]

Fix the fucking game DICE you're such a disappointment

stupid idiots

[coral fiber]

Game's stable for me

[crimson cloak]

don't care wheater i got banned or not

fix it

mmg

[forest wadi]

I mean only thing that’s annoying for me is high latency

[crimson cloak]

at rifl

and the gooddamn, spwan

and change the masteries they're a real pain in the ass

[forest wadi]

I used to run at 34 but now I’m running at like 130+

And I’m wired

[echo turtle]

It's being fixed in the next patch

[forest wadi]

That patch is coming next week right ?

[little raptor]

folks, its time for an unpopular opinion

dont worry, its ACTUALLY unpopular-

I think they should have stuck to the TTK changes they made back in 2018

[feral grotto]

Get out

[little raptor]

if we all hate MMGs, dying too quickly, 1 shots, bla bla bla bla

[forest wadi]

[little raptor]

maybe the TTK change wasn't the worst idea

the community maybe just needed a month to adjust to the new speed

[feral grotto]

Get

Out

[forest wadi]

Are talking about how it was faster or slower

[little raptor]

Societal Pressure, tho it can be subtle, is impossible strong D:

Slower

so you live through more exchanges

[forest wadi]

Yuck

[little raptor]

more chances to make it to cover

[echo turtle]

Who needs to get out?

[little raptor]

but more importantly, less times where you didn't even know what killed you

I do for my big nuclear takes

[forest wadi]

I actually liked it in beginning

It was more punishing for reckless gameplay

[coral fiber]

Yeah but that made pistols, shotguns, smgs, etc... Useless

Almost made me stop playing the game

[forest wadi]

Same

[little raptor]

Then those could have been tweaked

[forest wadi]

It shouldn’t take 90% of clip to kill someone

Ever

[little raptor]

but its better than dying because you looked at a wall wrong

[tribal cairn]

Any bolt action needs to be tweaked so that every long range shot isn't a 3BTK

We need sweet spots

[coral fiber]

^

[little raptor]

like- BFV sometimes feels too fast for Frostbite to handle

this is the first Battlefield were theres like, twice as many things things you are actively clicking

[forest wadi]

Engine needs update forsure

[little raptor]

buttons to pick up ammo, buttons to heal, buttons to revive, mashing the throw button to give Heal Beans

combine that with BFV's rip roaring speed, and it outdos Call of Duty

Something I don't find people talking about is that BFV is sometimes literally exhausting to play, and I don't mean bugs and whatnot

I mean feverishly checking corners and twitch aiming alongside having to manage the several extra functions BFV has over other BF's

so maybe the slower kill pace was a good idea

the current pace actually makes my brain tired lol

idk waddayall think

[echo turtle]

I'm surprised my dpad hasn't died to the spam of the right side

Doesn't help that you don't always throw an ammo pack or medpack

[little raptor]

For Honor killed my Xbox One Controllers right bumper

which reminds me, I gotta go buy gorilla glue today

[echo turtle]

The og Xbox one controller feels sticky as hell

Does bfv have keyboard and mouse support up for console?

[little raptor]

i would assume not

that'd be super troll

[unborn pumice]

Any news about the front letter?????

[icy sluice]

I'm level 69 now

[ripe seal]

Hey y'all, quick question here, sorry to change issue: where can I shout out to create a squad?

[icy sluice]

You mean make a new squad in game?

[little raptor]

@ripe seal #lfg-pc 👍

in the "Looking for Games" section of channels

[echo turtle]

What's the letter from the front about?

Is it where they talk about new stuff?

[little raptor]

like a bazillion bug fixes, patch notes, Metro Map, probably info on when RSP, and probably sweeping balance changes

in other words, probably another 40gig patch lol

oh uh

[echo turtle]

[little raptor]

sorry, now I understand your quesiton lol

Letters from the Front is a thing they're doing now where they have a massive set of questions answered and sspeak about whats going on currently with the team

the First Letters from the Front informed us they cancelled 5v5 to focus on the game itself

[echo turtle]

Oh a massive q&a

[little raptor]

basically a fancier version of patch notes and community answers

we'll have to wait and see, but think of them as what Dev Streams usually are

truth be told, I'm amazed that BFV doesn't have a Dev Stream

Then again, Braddock and PartWelsh both live in the US while Dice of Sweden is...

in Sweden

they need a community manager who lives in Sweden

hire me, DICE

not cause I live in Sweden, but because I Want to

[solid hinge]

We were supposed to have streams

Part of operation sunrise

[gray glade]

you wanna live in sweden? i hope you like snow

[little raptor]

I fuggin love snow

the sun sucks

[gray glade]

we got plenty of that

snow i mean

[little raptor]

whats it got, renewable energy? get that shit outta here

but legit, apparently DICE is an awesome place to work at

despite the vitriol their gaming communities subject them too, apparently DICE offices are nice and happy places

I know the map looks washed out, but...

Hamada is actually fun if you use cars

[icy sluice]

So, I killed a prone MMG camper, got this message

[solid hinge]

Lmao

[icy sluice]

I should send him the video of me killing everyone to get to him

[solid hinge]

I assume they were using the maschinengewehr 42?

[icy sluice]

VGO, guess what they were shooting at as I killed him from behind

[solid hinge]

Mm, the VGO. What were they firing upon?

[icy sluice]

a half-track

that's stationary

[solid hinge]

Using bullets or the AT pistol?

[echo turtle]

[teal thistle]

Lul

[solid hinge]

heh

heh

[icy sluice]

the VGO

[solid hinge]

I feel so bad for them.

You play on Xbox, as your name implies, yeah?

[icy sluice]

Yeah

[echo turtle]

Did he kill the dudes in the half track

[solid hinge]

Damn. What region are you? I've only received one 'fan mail' message before.

[icy sluice]

North America

The people in the half-track were dead but he was still firing at it

[echo turtle]

Was it conquest?

[solid hinge]

Playing like that, I see why they sent you a message haha

[icy sluice]

Yes.

All I did was just walk up to the guy and melee him

[coral fiber]

[fleet bloom]

LOL wtf was just playing, lost a game and went into the next round, the other team had 48 players and our team had my squad and 2 others

[lavish raptor]

ok

but like

[icy sluice]

If anything, the people who I killed before him should've messaged me

[lavish raptor]

when my kd is meh is it an exscuse to say i have a cat on my lap

because i do

black cats are cute but needy

[native mural]

@icy sluice

[icy sluice]

lmao

[short pecan]

game desperately needs an auto-balancer

or make it so each team needs to have approximately the same amount of players before the round can start

[lilac umbra]

game is dead live service

[lavish raptor]

huh?

[echo turtle]

Only for a couple more days

[lilac umbra]

for what

[echo turtle]

Till the next chapter

[lilac umbra]

oh

[lavish raptor]

did thegreatabroad die from adderal overdose or smthin

[icy sluice]

Oh yeah, did I mention the level 105 I saw?

[lavish raptor]

boi

thats nothing

that dweeb is level 120~

[icy sluice]

jfc

[lavish raptor]

he literally has either braindamage from sleep deprivation or brain stem straight up sawed off from snorting

like theres no fucking way a human can grind THAT MUCH, with that consistent skill, in less then a week

substances are involved

no fucking doubt

[icy sluice]

Ya know, I wouldn't be surprised if it were numerous people on one account

[lavish raptor]

rank 112

no he streams

[icy sluice]

Ah, well nevermind

[solid hinge]

15 plane kills in a match

Maybe like 20 if they didn't crash

[lavish raptor]

i bet you hes an addy rat tho

he looks like it from his streams

only human way you could have the focus patience and time to grind to level 112

100%

15 plane kills is nice

i like dogfighting

[solid hinge]

👌

?

ah

ea hypocrisy

lit

[junior topaz]

finished the 3 war stories on hardcore. under no flag in 1 hour, nordlys 35 mins because of shortcuts and trailleur in 2 because of the shite level design. fairly easy and wish it could’ve been much harder :/

[junior topaz]

[rain tree]

If bf 5 is $25 is it worth it? Head a lot of mixed reviews about it

Heard

[coarse thunder]

Probably

[solid hinge]

Bfv is a love hate relationship

[icy sluice]

I'm getting a lot of good stuff with it

[solid hinge]

The gunplay is good, the maps are ok (except devastation and aerodrome)

[icy sluice]

Like this salt message

[solid hinge]

Ah yes I love a good rage message

[solid hinge]

Raptor you’re a fucking legend

[icy sluice]

I think he blames connection on someone walking up behind him and hitting him with a pickaxe

I don't know why he says "Buy real internet."

[echo turtle]

He probably has Comcast

[solid hinge]

What’s comcast

[echo turtle]

Internet

[lavish raptor]

im sad to say it but

theres officially more trihards on NA then eu

the great abroad is back on, going to go find him and steal his fix so he cant keep staying up for 3 weeks at a time

[lavish raptor]

i just blew up a tank and got 1k score with the trombones nade launcher

[dawn flame]

Since chapter 4 ended do I still have time to grind chapter rewards since chap 5 hasn't started yet?

[echo turtle]

I don't think so

Gotta give dice some dosh

[dawn flame]

Aw rip

Was close to Yankee helmet

[thorn wren]

F

[spiral trail]

dice gave up

[dark solstice]

i think you can continue grinding, not sure, i know that you don't need assignments to get chapter xp

[delicate herald]

You can’t keep grinding unfortunately. You have to use boins

[icy sluice]

DICE didn't give up, but whatever, think that way ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[hazy wasp]

who the fuck thinks DICE gave up lol?

[night glade]

If they gave up they would've completely dropped the game

@rain tree I picked up the game for $25 and I think it was a good purchase

Don't buy it for $60 though lol

[lavish raptor]

does anyone know if grind is coming back

like it better be

[night glade]

Why wouldn't it?

[echo turtle]

It was really popular

Maybe they wanted an excuse to make SC a permanent mode

[hazy wasp]

just rename Squad Conquest Domination and

and have it as ''Battlefields version of domination''

hence vehicles

I wonder sometimes, does the Battlefield subreddit think for a moment, that they get less and less communication from DICE because that subreddit collectively over a while has become infested with the biggest whiney assholes in the community?

[night glade]

That's too much thinking for them

[dawn flame]

shame wont use boins on chap exp tho. if I ever bought any boins id rather get a character than using it on chap rewards. guess ill miss out on yankee helmet.

[night glade]

Same goes for the Apex subreddit who started sending death threats for over pricing fucking cosmetics

[dawn flame]

are we gonna get any weekly rewards tho or are we getting nothing till chap 5 drops?

[hazy wasp]

Man I loved Tina snapping back at them

waiting on Chapter 5

[echo turtle]

Maybe 4.5 won't

[hazy wasp]

Op Underground with 4.6 though should be fun

[dawn flame]

I was hoping 4.5 would give us cosmetics

[echo turtle]

Or it'll have a rank 20 tow

[hazy wasp]

I'd have filler events between chapters like fortnite does

some bonus dumb thing with like 2-3 rewards to earn

and a cool playlist of maps/modes

or a community event to unlock a gun/cosmetic

[echo turtle]

^^^

[hazy wasp]

tbh, DICE could do a lot by looking how Ubisoft does their Live service stuff, especially with for honor

[dawn flame]

I hope Dice adds crossplay to the game soon. it be cool to play with friends on other platforms plus other major games are starting to do it

or the next bf game

[wooden skiff]

I just want some new maps, the gameplay is already pretty strong

[hazy wasp]

just don;t do what the COD beta did and allow you to M/KB even after you joined a controller lobby lol

[wooden skiff]

lots of other shooters feel "lame" after playing bfv

[hazy wasp]

BFV's gameplay is more satisfying than the new CoDMW

[echo turtle]

They're changing that

[solid hinge]

I like bfv more than mw lol

[wooden skiff]

and I like the changes they made, like no 3d spotting

[solid hinge]

Movement is too slow in mw

[wooden skiff]

vehicles should be tweaked a bit

[dawn flame]

oh no not pc+ console. i meant more bf with consoles playing together

like xbox and ps

[hazy wasp]

3D spotting needs to be made more a thing for certain classes

[dawn flame]

in same lobby

[wild oxide]

Was planning on downloading the MW beta to compare the two but I was not expecting it to be 42 GB

[wooden skiff]

DICE is in shambles i thing

[hazy wasp]

as its still needed in some areas

but dialling it back is a massive +

[dawn flame]

it be unfair to have pc player in a console lobby

[wooden skiff]

@hazy wasp interesting point

[hazy wasp]

Recons should just auto spot with their scopes

not the spotting scope

But take away the '''shown when shot'' thing

[wooden skiff]

To be honest i really like the no spotting, it completely changes the gameplay imo

[hazy wasp]

So at least then even the useless camper snipers are doing something

Until you are ina plane

then its like Uhhhh

[wooden skiff]

Yeah planes are a problem in bfv

[hazy wasp]

'''ill drop stuff here?''

All fighters should have flares as a non changable slot

[wooden skiff]

Maps like Fjell could be fun, the the plane gameplay just ruins it

[undone tusk]

Slightly off topic, but I personally don't like how Medium Scopes only have a glint on Recon weapons. Either make all Medium scopes have it or none at all
