[dense bone]

flare and beacon are best gadgets

[delicate herald]

That’s my load out for recon. Along with either KAR or Krag

[dense bone]

flare beacon p08c for ultimate flag holding

[delicate herald]

Flare, knives, beacon

[ancient ocean]

Well what else is there, tripwire mine?

[delicate herald]

Pretty much yeah. Lol

[hoary condor]

Recon - M95

[delicate herald]

You could use the little binocular thing instead of flare. No idea why you would tho

[hoary condor]

flares...

[ancient ocean]

And the mines barely even work for support anymore

[hoary condor]

support - frag launcher

I need to practice with the Panzerfaist

[solid hinge]

more like panzerworst

[opaque quail]

Will devils anvil ever come back to bf1

[delicate herald]

^^

[hoary condor]

I like it, really affect against vehicles

[opaque quail]

Havent seen for de veux in operation for a year now

[hoary condor]

at least scares the driver

[delicate herald]

Hopefully we’ll get the Bazooka with the Americans.

[solid hinge]

Panzerfaust deserves a buff

So puny compared to piat

[hoary condor]

Piat is so much better

[ancient ocean]

Piat is better

[hoary condor]

Panzerfaist has the distance though

i feel the piat swivels at aa certain distance

[delicate herald]

Panzerfaust looks cooler....PIAT is ugly af.

[solid hinge]

Piat can still hit long distances, just takes aiming higher

Any longer than piat max range and you're not gonna do anything other than vaguely annoy a tank with a faust

we need some real ranged anti tank tools

[hoary condor]

true

[opaque quail]

Will devils anvil on operation ever return to bf1?

[hoary condor]

i enjoy shooting the faust into the unknown

[solid hinge]

It sucks cause I really like the Faust but its horrendously underpowered

[hoary condor]

Satchel chargers are OP against tanks

[solid hinge]

borderline useless vs anything other than vehicles and piat is just as good vs vehicles if not better

@opaque quail you asked this twice and the answer is you can play it right now

[opaque quail]

Not true

[solid hinge]

Faust doesn't even blow up house

[opaque quail]

Servers are dead

[hoary condor]

True

[solid hinge]

Then too bad son

[hoary condor]

weird how that works

[opaque quail]

Literally im the only guy

[solid hinge]

Kay

[opaque quail]

?

[ancient ocean]

I feel like the panzerfrost never works for me, and with the piat I always seem to land my hits even at long range.

[gray saffron]

panzerfire feels very puny atm. it sucks against tanks and worthless against infantry. piat is definitely a better choice atm.

[hoary condor]

Faust isn't used for infrantry, it should be used for vehicles which is does

[weak marsh]

Guys so 4.6 update ?

[hoary condor]

Not yet

check #game-news for updates

[weak marsh]

Oh ok

[gray saffron]

yeah true, but the panzerfist doesn't feel better as the piat does. you might fire at a tank from father away, but you'll just risk it aiming at you. Most of the time, it's better to get closer to the tank and use dynamite, tank nade and a piat to finish it off. plus you can use that piat during infantry battles while a panzerfloss is essentially just paperweight in your inventory.

[hoary condor]

dynamite is my go too

Scare them with the launcher and then rock them with dynamite

[weak marsh]

I want the Pazersreck

[hoary condor]

Yeah but it's a heavy item.. would it slow you down..

should do when aiming..

[warped pebble]

bf servers can have bots?

[hoary condor]

Not from what i have heard

[coral fiber]

Oh man
The 109 G2 really does melt spitfires

[hoary condor]

tbf most flaks take spitfires down ez pz

[warped pebble]

i hear some people say that for bf4

[coral fiber]

I've heard from other pilots that the weapons on the 109 are weak

They're not I assure you that

[hoary condor]

flaks on bombers are pointless unless you have someone in another plane taking shots at it

[coral fiber]

Yes

[hoary condor]

otherwise i tend to leave the bombers alone

[coral fiber]

You should
Your AA won't do anything
To them

That's why i only want an AA buff to bombers

[hoary condor]

Flaks don't do enough damage, the bombes fix and know exactly where you are lol

i will take light aircrafts easy enough

[coral fiber]

Yeah flying in a fighter with a shit ton of AA is a pain

[hoary condor]

you don't tend to survive long

bombers can bomb all day long no problems

[coral fiber]

That's if the enemy fighters are shit and don't know what they're doing

[hoary condor]

Stukas tend to hold a bit more health than spitfires

[coral fiber]

Or if all planes in the enemy team are bombers

Yeah but weapons are shite

Bombs too

[hoary condor]

yeah if bombers are bombing.. unless you got someone in the flak tank... might as well move on

accept fate and leave game

[coral fiber]

The stuka was perfectly balanced at launch
It actually felt like a dive bomber

It was useful

Now it's just a waste

[zenith pendant]

come on I like the screeching of it

especially if you go Nitro 20mm stuka

[coral fiber]

Ik

[zenith pendant]

So you go high up 100m extra above the skybox

[coral fiber]

Back at launch i went 100-7 with the stuka in a grand op match

[zenith pendant]

start yer dive, activate nitro

and.... supress infantry ?

drop a bomb or something ?

20mm Stuka is basically reversed Mosquito

[coral fiber]

Infantry should be feared by the enemy stukas
Apparently that's not the case in this game

[pulsar valve]

For the people asking about an update, we'll make sure to ping GameNews when it drops

[coral fiber]

👍

[hoary condor]

Nice Mozzy

[coral fiber]

As much as I love the stuka, it should be great again like it was at launch

[smoky horizon]

Like all planes 👀

[coral fiber]

Nope just the stuka

[smoky horizon]

Awwww

😐

[coral fiber]

Planes now are fine
Fighters
Bombers

The stuka specifically needs to be changed cuz it's pointless to use

[hoary condor]

yeah its a slow moving target

[coral fiber]

Exactly

[hoary condor]

lovely for me on the flak

keep it as it is

[coral fiber]

Honestly

Flak target

It should be great again

[hoary condor]

spitfires are the same, just easier to take out the sky

[coral fiber]

Yep

They're slow

[hoary condor]

start shooting at a spitfire then realise it's a mk 2

[coral fiber]

Which doesn't makes sense

[hoary condor]

gets

they are slow but more agile than the Stuka

[coral fiber]

Yep...

[hoary condor]

Stuka is just a slow thing moving..

[coral fiber]

Spitfires should be the most agile fighter in the game

[hoary condor]

never hear the scream of it anymore either

they are if flown correctly

a lot quicker than any plane in the game

[coral fiber]

That's if you get the leading ledge

Which the VB only gets

It outturns the 109s

[hoary condor]

True, but if i'm trying to shoot at stuka in the shooters sit on a plane.. spitfire just has to bob and weave around

[coral fiber]

True

[hoary condor]

it's gun on twisted steel, always get the back gunner spraying at the bridge.. pls leave me alone to sniper your team at spawn since they are stuck there

[prime pine]

Stukas sacrifice general instant repair for inferior part repair

[coral fiber]

I just want my stuka to be feared again

[hoary condor]

don't think that will be coming back in fear

[prime pine]

....And if you stray from Part repair (1 tonne bomb / 37mm's) you're left with an inferior air craft.

Cause 250's won't take out a tank.

[coral fiber]

1000kg?

[prime pine]

Yeah 1000 Kg, That's a tonne.

[coral fiber]

Ok

Yeah 250s are trash

[prime pine]

They weren't bad but now they've been nerfed.

When they changed the 4000 Pound bomb they ended up reworking the other bombs.

[coral fiber]

@solid hinge tmi man

[prime pine]

Don't give them attention.

If the Stuka B-2 was allowed to use its bombs alongside the Borkadonnes and instant repair it would be generally more effective.

[hoary condor]

No, he is right. Plus this is battlefield, go to general for anything else that isn't related to battlefield

[coral fiber]

Skilless infantry noobs are calling for a 4000lb bomb nerf
Lmao dumbest shit I've ever heard

[hoary condor]

[prime pine]

It was a bit overbearing.

But if it screwed over other bombs.

[hoary condor]

i barely have the 4000lb coming down

[prime pine]

That's when the problems arise.

I've noticed the mosquito being flown quite a bit as of late. But that's only here in Oceana.

[coral fiber]

The 4000lb bomb velocity nerf is acceptable
Gives infantry some time to move away as the bomb is still falling

Just ignore him

[prime pine]

Make the 4000 pound bomb as it is but don't let its changes leak over to other bombs.

[green elm]

how does everyone feel about the Pzb39

[prime pine]

The 1 tonne bomb no longer destroys the valentines in a direct hit.

[hallow perch]

pee zee bee? its not good

[coral fiber]

@prime pine it should tbh

[green elm]

fuck

[prime pine]

It was actually skill full like that.

OH, The panzer buchse

[hallow perch]

just spamfire the p08 carbine and you'll be more effective than any at rifle boomer

[prime pine]

I was thinking of the main gun for the 38T

I think it's just another boring AMR but it has its use i guess.

[coral fiber]

The 38T is a great anti infantry tank

Especially with the at mine specialization

[prime pine]

If you flank a valentine with AP rounds you can actually kill a valentine.

[coral fiber]

Yeah

[prime pine]

With its main gun, Not the auto cannon.

I was surprised

[coral fiber]

I go auto cannon
More effective with infantry

[prime pine]

Light tanks are generally eh

My friend uses it on full swing

For some reason he manages to get flawless games

[coral fiber]

Xbox... Wrath

I troll the light tanks with my 109 with rockets

It's fine

[prime pine]

I fly the 88C with the 75MM cannon. After a while it's actually not a bad answer to tanks.

You need to be precise and have a good run.

[coral fiber]

It seems like PC players have more problems with bfv

[prime pine]

a single shell on a valentines engine does 50

50-59

[coral fiber]

I don't like the 88C

[prime pine]

Feels weird?

[coral fiber]

It's just weak IMO

Pain in the ass to lvl up

[prime pine]

For me, The grind was worth it.

Through practice, You can take out churchills in a single run!

[coral fiber]

I have my squadron with my side so maybe I'll level it up sometime

[prime pine]

Is yours still at level 0

[coral fiber]

Yep

[prime pine]

Just harass bombers for points.

Once you have the 20 MM cannon it should be easier to pick fights with bombers. Then once you have your camera you should be able to get more points.

[coral fiber]

Yeah the cannon can 1 shot

I've experienced that before

[prime pine]

I mean the main gun

[coral fiber]

Ik

I'm just sayin about the cannon

[prime pine]

Right

Sometimes if you hit bombers tails you deal 92 damage... It's so off putting.

[coral fiber]

Oof

[prime pine]

But then you hit centre mass and just boom.

[solid hinge]

JU88C is fucking insane

[coral fiber]

Not my type of plane tbh

I'm a dogfighter not a bomber hehe

[solid hinge]

I dogfight with that bomber

[coral fiber]

Noice

[solid hinge]

4x 20mm hunts down everything

[coral fiber]

Yep I'm remember getting melted by those 20mm

In fjell this bomber tried to dogfight my spitfire
He died ofc

[solid hinge]

Omegalol

[coral fiber]

Then my squadron hunted him down everytime he spawned

Cuz he actually took out one of our guys

[solid hinge]

I take the back gunner upgrade too

Ju-88 C has two good spec trees

LLLL or LMRR

[zenith pendant]

fun fact

ventral mount shreds infantry

[solid hinge]

^^^

4 x 20mm shreds everything

[zenith pendant]

I am pretty sure it one-shots infy

preeeeetty sure

melts air stuff too

[solid hinge]

I would attest to that

[prime pine]

It's practically the hispanos from the mosquito

at launc

Launch

[hybrid dock]

it's 2 big

[zenith pendant]

I like the JU88C radar

it changes the nose of the plane

looks like a big big mosquito

[coral fiber]

Maybe I'll use it sometime

But with a bomber that big with a small playload

[solid hinge]

After you go for a bombing run pull up and switch to the 3rd gunner and use the mg to melt the infantry

Nobody does it, and nobody uses the 3rd gunner on the blenheim

[prime pine]

I think the guy i've been killing with the cannons, Old aussie dad is going to start copying me.

But then again, He's been running the blen mkIF like a mosquito like the dumbass he is

[solid hinge]

4 x .303s on the blenheim

[prime pine]

Yeah i'm thinking of touching the IF again, A guy i was playing with got bored of his Blen IF and gave it to me. It was a plain one but i managed to score vehicle kills with the 500 pounders.

[coral fiber]

Lel

Ok i gtg now
Y'all have a good one

[prime pine]

Infact i don't think i'll need the two 1 tonne bombs.

See ya Pilot.

[solid hinge]

Byebye

The final bomb upgrade for the blen isnt really an upgrade

[prime pine]

It sorta calls for greater precision.

[solid hinge]

The bombs get bigger but you only get 2 of them

May as well get the nose gunner r

[prime pine]

Guess you drop the load in the same amount of time but in a sense, Your bombs dont get too spread out.

But you may as well go nose gunner yeah.

Have your friend use it and get those kills.

[solid hinge]

I understand it if it was actually the same payload, but iirc the bomb stats arent doubled even when the bomb gets bigger

So 4 x 500lb > 2 x 1000lb

[prime pine]

Yeah

You're still carrying the same amount of weight

[solid hinge]

Like IRL it would work

[prime pine]

But in a game it's a lot of bombs.

It was a bit of a joke how the IF would carry 2 500 pounders

[solid hinge]

Exactly!

[prime pine]

The 88A at launch would carry what, 4,600 kilograms worth of bombs

That was insane

[midnight bluff]

sieggg

ha

[prime pine]

Cause at the start, Couldn't the 88A Carry 32 50's and 8 250's?

[gloomy kraken]

Someone linked me about a wierd Junkers x BF109 combo once, it was a Junkers 88 modified that the whole body was just explosives and nothing else and the BF109 was attached above it, it use the Junkers 88’s engines but when the pilot wanted to drop the bomb it dropped the Junker body and Let the BF109 fly like normal.

[wraith wadi]

yo on battlefield 1 we won,by 2points on conquest

[solid hinge]

Sooo has 4.6 been released

[wraith wadi]

for what

[solid hinge]

Battlefield v...

[wraith wadi]

idk

i just have mine automatic update

[gloomy kraken]

Junkers 88 mistel

https://www.reddit.com/r/BattlefieldV/comments/d8rdqa/news_tomorrow_about_update_46/

News coming tomorrow about the update

[midnight nimbus]

more bombs is more good

[severe wraith]

https://i.redd.it/6ybbbafrwrn31.jpg

[solid hinge]

Actual news

[fluid tusk]

@severe wraith this is DICE's second attempt at a live service game technically

the first one as far as I know was Battlefield Play 4 Free

this game is far better than BF P4F

in a number of ways

[severe wraith]

its a great attempt hehehe

[fluid tusk]

have you ever played BF P4F?

[severe wraith]

no because it didnt cost 60 dollars

[fluid tusk]

you poor poor child

do you wanna know how you unlocked guns?

you paid $15+ USD

to unlock cosmetics

$5+ USD

and so on

[midnight nimbus]

holy based

[fluid tusk]

atleast with BFV, you get free weapons and occasionally free cosmetics

[severe wraith]

free?

60 dollars

[fluid tusk]

for the base game

everything added is free after that

[severe wraith]

ok and how often is new content actually added to this game

id rather pay for dlc

[fluid tusk]

every few months

[severe wraith]

if it comes out on time

and as promised

but its not

[fluid tusk]

so basically your one of those, "I want it NOWWWWW" people

[severe wraith]

yeah

[opaque pawn]

Lol

[severe wraith]

i want it on time

or when it comes

[fluid tusk]

you must be under the age of 25

[severe wraith]

i want it to work

but time and time again it isnt

they release it? breaks the game

[fluid tusk]

that happens with any game

[severe wraith]

they release it late? after a delay? breaks the game

[fluid tusk]

🤔 that isnt actually accurate

[severe wraith]

it is

what happened after the last patch

everybody had absolutely horrible lag

after they DELAYED it

to make it a high quality experience

[fluid tusk]

and it was explained why it happened

[severe wraith]

it still happened

[fluid tusk]

and they fixed it with an update

[prime pine]

There's a weird rock on Al sundan

[fluid tusk]

it happened because the matchmaking would put people in servers outside of their own country

[prime pine]

I forgot the single player map

[fluid tusk]

al sundan is a mess

[severe wraith]

how many maps do we have

not enough

[prime pine]

But running alongside the mountain, Near the checkpoint there's a rock that's missing its texture on one side.

[severe wraith]

the two new ones? for dead game modes

[fluid tusk]

@severe wraith oh, your one of those people

[severe wraith]

al sundan? in the trash

[fluid tusk]

also squad conquest isnt dead

i play that shit

[severe wraith]

i see like 2 servers

lol

[fluid tusk]

nah bruh, theres more than that

[severe wraith]

i love the game but i hate how its being delivered

[fluid tusk]

thats part of life, you need to learn to compromise more

[severe wraith]

you dont need to tell me what I need to do or not lol

[fluid tusk]

it will help you when you get older

[severe wraith]

like why are you talking about my age

we're talking about a game

[fluid tusk]

because in this world, not everything comes exactly as you want it

[severe wraith]

alright fuck off

im not talking to you anymore lmao

old head

[fluid tusk]

you were the one memeing, not me

your contributing to the toxicity that surrounds this game instead of trying to make the best of it

[prime pine]

Squad conquest in fu

Fun

[fluid tusk]

as for squad conquest, you stated there are only "two servers", yet I can take a picture right now showing multiple full servers

[prime pine]

But the clan stacking makes it tilted

[severe wraith]

dumby its only showing me 2

idc what its showing you

[fluid tusk]

72 total using the server browser

on PS4

most are full/close to being full

[severe wraith]

and on pc i see 2

[zenith pendant]

filters

[fluid tusk]

^

[severe wraith]

literally no filters

only squad conquest

[zenith pendant]

are you stupid

[severe wraith]

its only showing me 2

[zenith pendant]

Okay there is the server browser

[severe wraith]

no shit

[fluid tusk]

I highly doubt there are only "2" online

[zenith pendant]

middle and left are servers

right are filters

[severe wraith]

the only filter on is game mode

squad conquest

thats all i see

[zenith pendant]

you can't be serious

[severe wraith]

why are the new maps made for squad conquest

[zenith pendant]

there is at least mode, map, server size and fill

[icy sluice]

Sometimes the server browser does glitch and just doesn't show some servers.

[zenith pendant]

op underground, al sundan and the entirety of pacific are not for squad conquest

[icy sluice]

Or, at least it used to happen to me all the time

[severe wraith]

the pacific?

where is it?

[zenith pendant]

yes THE pacific

planned for late october - early november

[severe wraith]

where is al sundan

[icy sluice]

Issues are preventing it from being released

[zenith pendant]

i think it was artefacting

or when textures stretch and flash into the sky

[severe wraith]

when was it first released

expected to be released

[icy sluice]

June I think?

[zenith pendant]

20-30 of june

[severe wraith]

so 4 months to fixi t

fix it

[fluid tusk]

https://imgur.com/a/8AzeAH2

here

[severe wraith]

4 months to fix it

where is it

[fluid tusk]

keep in mind that it is afternoon on a school day, so a lot of peopel arent on

[solid hinge]

dice please dont fuck this patch up

[zenith pendant]

being fixed, that's where it is

[fluid tusk]

Pacific isnt launched yet, thats october

[solid hinge]

assuming al sugondese and op metro come in the patch

[severe wraith]

takes 4 months to fix it?

[solid hinge]

that would bump up the map count to.. how much?

[severe wraith]

well over 4 months

[fluid tusk]

Al Sundan in a lesson for why devs shouldnt direct port SP maps to MP when they have different values/shaders/etc for each

[zenith pendant]

you a frostbite expert ?

[severe wraith]

nope im just wondering why it takes 4 months to fix a map

[fluid tusk]

me or him? I am just a game modder

[zenith pendant]

idk ask DICE

[solid hinge]

game modder, huh

[zenith pendant]

as far as we know the textures stretch into the sky

[solid hinge]

i dabbled a teeny tiny little bit in halo CE modding back when i was a kid

[fluid tusk]

Game Modder and former indie dev circa 2005 - 2013

[zenith pendant]

and it happens so frequently that it "makes the map unplayable"

[solid hinge]

niiice

[severe wraith]

live service doesnt work

[zenith pendant]

idk I like all the free guns I don't have to pay a dime for

[solid hinge]

how many new maps do we have so far anyways

[zenith pendant]

6

[solid hinge]

8 base + panzer + mercury + marita

[severe wraith]

panzer isnt a map

[zenith pendant]

are you serious

[solid hinge]

panzerSTORM

[severe wraith]

hehehee

that map is so bad

[solid hinge]

this is all excluding squad poopquest maps because fuck squad poopquest

[zenith pendant]

do you like domination

[fluid tusk]

Panzerstorm is dope

[severe wraith]

no i play conquest

[solid hinge]

if we're not going to count shitty base maps then there's like 2 base maps for me

[zenith pendant]

l2p on some maps, fool

[fluid tusk]

I prefer breakthrough

[solid hinge]

there's no l2ping hamada

only quitting hamada

[zenith pendant]

yes there is

you are just a casual

[solid hinge]

wat

[fluid tusk]

Hamada is fun

[solid hinge]

the map reeks of dingleberry soup

[severe wraith]

Breakthrough is good too

[solid hinge]

it's terrible

[zenith pendant]

you can't play it

[solid hinge]

it's practically unaninimous that the map sucks

[severe wraith]

Hamada is slightly better than panzerstorm

[zenith pendant]

oh you did a strawpoll

[solid hinge]

and trust me, i'm usually one to tolerate a bad map

[zenith pendant]

that every single BF player participated in

[solid hinge]

but FUCK me that map is soooooooo bad

[severe wraith]

I don’t leave Hamada

[zenith pendant]

Brother Hamada can't be a bad map because it has 2 parts that play virtually different to each other

[fluid tusk]

Hamada is good for PTFOing

[zenith pendant]

one being infantry focused the other one being tank focused

the first one is EFG zone, the other one is ABCD zone

Don't like one zone switch to the other

[solid hinge]

hamada is horrible for ptfoing because you're just constantly getting shot from angles

[fluid tusk]

anyway I got glitched on Hamada and ended up using it to make a little video

[solid hinge]

the entire game is generally getting shot from angles but maaan, hamada really brings out that bfv meta in its full glory

[fluid tusk]

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

basically a video watching crazy shit happening in Hamada from a single trench

[solid hinge]

this wouldve been dope in bf1

[zenith pendant]

I mean with that logic you can say every BF game is getting shot from angles

hell every shooter is getting shot, from angles

[icy sluice]

You sat there ofr 8 minutes

[solid hinge]

in this game it's exceptionally bad

[fluid tusk]

yes, yes I did

it was fascinating tbh

especially when the sturmtiger appeared

I sat there hoping my team would capture it and revive me, but instead got a great view of the enemy team dominating the trench

[zenith pendant]

you would not be revived

[fleet bloom]

panzerstorm and hamada are 2 of the best 5 maps

[zenith pendant]

because this glitch is you staying dead

without transitioning to the spawn screen

[fluid tusk]

🤷🏽

i wanted to win the round anyway

[short thistle]

I never see anything on hamada😂

[zenith pendant]

in the game world you are dead, and your body probably disappeared

[short thistle]

Its just to bright i think

[solid hinge]

whoever controls EFG on hamada wins

[icy sluice]

I actually do like Hamada

[zenith pendant]

Like I said Hamada is 2 maps in one

EFG and ABCD

[icy sluice]

HIJKLMNOP

[midnight nimbus]

even though I've consistently done very well on Hamada, I'd still rather quit

[short thistle]

I like rotterdam

[midnight nimbus]

map sucks

[solid hinge]

defending EFG on hamada gets boring

[zenith pendant]

depends

if I get bored I usually hop on an AA

[solid hinge]

if you own EFG the best use of your time is sitting in the spawn menu waiting for someone to attack a point

[gloomy kraken]

When we get the private games we can make our own map rotations.

[solid hinge]

so you can spawn on it immediately

[midnight nimbus]

I've played like 10 minutes of Hamada CQ

[solid hinge]

which is bad design

[tough needle]

More fun than attacking ABC

[midnight nimbus]

didn't even play to half the round

it was so dogshit boring

[fluid tusk]

honestly, the best part of that video is the dutch angle

[midnight nimbus]

I went on a massive killstreak and quit with 100hp left in the tank

[zenith pendant]

oh so you played 10 minutes of a map

to form an opinion on it

[solid hinge]

Axis have the spawn advantage as well

[zenith pendant]

[midnight nimbus]

I've played Hamada in every other mode

[solid hinge]

Brits spawn all the way at the bottom

[midnight nimbus]

and shocker, it still sucks

[zenith pendant]

@solid hinge Axis have kubelwagens

[icy sluice]

Still better than Scrapyard and Stonehaven

[zenith pendant]

Fastest Brit car is Staghound

[midnight nimbus]

I didn't expect it to be any more fun in my least favorite mode

[lavish raptor]

guys

what level are you

[zenith pendant]

but that requires a tank spawn

[short thistle]

The breaktrough of marita is sooo fun

[zenith pendant]

@lavish raptor 68

[icy sluice]

72 @lavish raptor

[lavish raptor]

109

[wraith wadi]

so what battlefield do you all play the most

[icy sluice]

[zenith pendant]

V

[solid hinge]

69

[wraith wadi]

lol

[icy sluice]

Nice

[zenith pendant]

I mean seriously

[solid hinge]

[zenith pendant]

Fastest Brit vehicle is Staghound

[wraith wadi]

i play one mostly but v is alright

[short thistle]

Breaktrough

[zenith pendant]

On panzerstorm if you spawn on the top part of the map on the road, you can get to E and fight some germans

before they cap it

[short thistle]

[wraith wadi]

i sent a photo it diddnt load

[midnight nimbus]

I think I'm 51 or 52 and will never get higher than that

[wraith wadi]

Im rank 35 on batrlefield 1 i thinl

[zenith pendant]

got to have regular role to sent photos around here

[wraith wadi]

Think

oh ok

im not use to discord so yea

[solid hinge]

Staghound does have speed going for it

[short thistle]

Im rank 45

[solid hinge]

I guess that's kind of relevant in conquest

[short thistle]

Staghound is really good

[zenith pendant]

yes it is, to flank and cap points

[wraith wadi]

is it just me or do games take forever to load on battlefield 1

[tough needle]

Can’t you get to rank like 500 now?

[zenith pendant]

well yes but actually no

[midnight nimbus]

staghound is rly cute as medium/heavy tank food

must be fun getting two shotted by Tigers all the time

can't relate

[zenith pendant]

3

4 if you pop emergency

[midnight nimbus]

2 with AP/HEAT

[zenith pendant]

if you waste AP/HEAT on a staghound

you waste AP/HEAT on a staghound

[midnight nimbus]

or I'm pretty sure you can 2 shot Staghounds with turret shots

[solid hinge]

Not a waste if it kills it one shot faster

[zenith pendant]

that could fly into a churchil and be more effective

[midnight nimbus]

imagine using the Churchill

[solid hinge]

No mercy even for insects

[zenith pendant]

wait till that insect flanks your ass and fills it with 4 60-pound rockets

[solid hinge]

Churchill isn't gonna win in a 1v1 unless it manages to howitzer you accurately

[zenith pendant]

and then proceeds to dance around your broken turret

[short thistle]

[solid hinge]

I have no idea how anyone ever gets snuck up on by another tank

I can understand infantry

[zenith pendant]

Staghound is real damn fucking fast

[solid hinge]

But a whole vehicle?

[zenith pendant]

Like, a bit slower than a Kubel

but it can actually turn on high speeds

[midnight nimbus]

i have literally never been flanked by another tank in CQ

they're so big and loud

[zenith pendant]

ew camper

[midnight nimbus]

and slow

[solid hinge]

If you rotate the tank along with the turret you can catch anything bar maybe a jeep

[midnight nimbus]

even the light tanks

[zenith pendant]

not if the turret is broken

[midnight nimbus]

pop that 3p camera and you can see light tanks over hills

hilarious

won't break your turret if you know where the enemy is going before they see you

[solid hinge]

You gotta hit me to break the turret

[zenith pendant]

Also remember

[midnight nimbus]

preaim the light tank

real cute meme

[zenith pendant]

never use incendiary launcher with staghound

[solid hinge]

and if you hit me you definitely ain't sneaking up on me

god incendiary launcher

What were they THINKING

[midnight nimbus]

literally only use the Staghound for AA memes

[zenith pendant]

because it takes away your only damage source for tanks if you run the autocannon

[fleet bloom]

people go 32 deaths and 5 kills, i don't think it's too hard to sneak up on a tank 🤷

[midnight nimbus]

autocannon sux too

[solid hinge]

Using nothing is better than using the incendiary launcher

[midnight nimbus]

the only thing that pos is good for is LJ plane sniping

[zenith pendant]

Well technically you can get real damn close to a chokepoint

[midnight nimbus]

but it's really good at that ig

[zenith pendant]

and pop it

technically

[solid hinge]

Okay its better than literally nothing

[zenith pendant]

but that's like using sturmtiger to drive it into the enemy and proceed to use the grenade launcher seat

[solid hinge]

Yeah

heh

very situational

[zenith pendant]

hey at least sturmtiger has the health to do that

and the grenade launcher ONE-SHOTS

[solid hinge]

It just.. shoots a couple molotov into the air

[zenith pendant]

2 incendiary

one to the left one to the right of your vision cone

[midnight nimbus]

BF4 gunner incendiary tho

mmmmmmmm

[solid hinge]

Sturmtiger grenade launcher is like a piat turret

[zenith pendant]

I mean it's smoke launcher

[midnight nimbus]

bathes everyone around you in fire

[zenith pendant]

using BF4 gunner incendiary

you are better off just shooting the bugger if he is that close to you

[solid hinge]

just like the crocodile

r-right guys

[midnight nimbus]

plenty of angles turrets can't reach

even for the gunner

[zenith pendant]

croc at least has the range

like, from my amateur calculations and observations

[midnight nimbus]

flamethrower on the croc is the dumbest meme

[zenith pendant]

about 50m before the flames despawn

[midnight nimbus]

shit range

you're not killing anyone past like 15m

[zenith pendant]

you are

you just have to land the flames

[midnight nimbus]

and it obscures the driver's vision

[zenith pendant]

and then they melt

[prime pine]

I got fucking rushed by a sturmtiger today

While in a crocodile

That was horrifying

[midnight nimbus]

I wish I could just automatically kick out any player who sits in my croc

[zenith pendant]

happens to the best of us

Sturmtiger scariest tank to face

except when you are staghound

then you just fill it's arsehole with Little John shots

[severe wraith]

When will I be able to get the new rifle

[prime pine]

On breakthrough you objective is to avoid it. Hearing it fire off in the distance manages to unnerve me.

[zenith pendant]

which one

[severe wraith]

I took a break the week that you could unlock it

[fluid tusk]

anyway to the people who meme about the update neevr coming

[severe wraith]

Breta

[zenith pendant]

next week

[severe wraith]

K

[fluid tusk]

the fact we have a backend update for it, means that DICE is most likely waiting on Sony/Microsofts approval

[prime pine]

Then my friend, bless him. Spawned me another Crocodile and i went on another rampage.

[solid hinge]

the flamer position on the croc does almost no damage

i hate it

[prime pine]

I accidentally killed my friends who were on the other side.... I think i scared half of them

You rarely get kills with it

The flamethrower

[solid hinge]

a dude ran directly towards the fire and survived for like 3 whole seconds

[midnight nimbus]

I just sit far enough where the flamethrower user doesn't get to hit anything

[prime pine]

It's got range but that's just about it, Nothing else.

[midnight nimbus]

they get the message fast enough and get out

[solid hinge]

I wish that worked

[prime pine]

HA, I Should keep that in mind.

[solid hinge]

alas, my level 6 squad member is enticed by the pretty particle effects

and now i can't see anything

[frosty osprey]

Unfortunately, we will also announce that Private Games as we have discussed them have been cancelled as a planned feature. Instead, we will be looking to implement a new and improved Rental Server Program in December where for the price of 1000 boins a day, you can rent a server that is invite only. Once the server depopulates, the server is closed and must be purchased again. (No refunds)

[prime pine]

They just need to buff the flamethrower

[solid hinge]

because someone thought it would be a good idea to put the fire directly in front of the turret sights

absolute genius

[prime pine]

It's so weird using the crocodile

[severe wraith]

I love that reddit post

[frosty osprey]

https://www.reddit.com/r/BattlefieldV/comments/d8oq43/this_week_in_battlefield_september_24_edition_46/

[prime pine]

Because i'm used to the 95MM howitser, So as a result the shorter reloads on the croc put me off.

[severe wraith]

The creativity

Is quite magnificent

[prime pine]

"I can fire this fast!?"

[zenith pendant]

honestly flamethrower should be driver gun

[solid hinge]

Sturmtiger is like.. an actual unique vehicle, but the crocodile is like a more powerful tiger

[zenith pendant]

a more powerful churchil

[prime pine]

Stumtiger is heavy siege and quite frankly its fucking scary

[solid hinge]

Croc fits the role of tiger

[midnight nimbus]

all weapons should go to the driver

[solid hinge]

Big bastard that squats at a distance

[prime pine]

The crocodile doesn't have the luxery of using HESH.

[midnight nimbus]

the flamethrower should just be a Churchill upgrade

and the AVRE with the Howitzer should be the call in

[solid hinge]

Howitzer churchill is like a mini sturmtiger

[midnight nimbus]

buff it to be equivalent to the Sturmtiger

[zenith pendant]

I am pretty sure AVRE will fill the other reinforcements slot

[midnight nimbus]

1:1, more or less

but the doc croc should really just be tuned to be a Tiger competitor

the asymmetric vehicle meme is so shit

[prime pine]

Actually. On that mention. I would be cool if the normal churchill got the 75 MM howitser through the right side of the tree

So if you ignore big mortar rounds, You can go for moar range.

[icy sluice]

First person to get level 500 gets a signed shitbucket

[midnight nimbus]

StuG would unironically be kinda decent if the driver got to use the coax

wouldn't be amazing, but decent enough

[prime pine]

It doesn't even have the same DPS as the archer

Which is weird

[zenith pendant]

Coax shreds

[prime pine]

is it meant to be a tank destroyer or what?

[zenith pendant]

Sometimes I wonder who is the main hero of the StuG

the driver or the coax gunner

[midnight nimbus]

even with the coax to the driver, it'd still be a mediocre Pz4

[prime pine]

With a lower profile

But

That doesn't even change much

[midnight nimbus]

Germans stuck with the worst tanks and best planes

epic balance

[solid hinge]

stug having exactly the same cannon as the pz4 sucks

meanwhile the archer dunks on everything

[icy sluice]

I just use Stubby Panzer with Flares

[midnight nimbus]

asymmetric vehicles would be ok if BF were an asymmetric game

meaning no CQ

[icy sluice]

It is always funny seeing most Breakthrough Aerodrome matches go nowhere, even with like three tanks

And the Germans get no AT-Guns

They can build one past the hangar though

[midnight nimbus]

I don't remember the last time I've lost an Aerodrome BT

pretty much every time I've played it, I was praying for my team to be more potato

rly frustrating when your blueberries actually cap flags faster than you want them to

[icy sluice]

BT is either you experience the map in a second or experience 10% of the map

It's rare you get to experience the map at a good and entertaining pace

[solid hinge]

which is sad because bf1 ops wasnt quite like that

[icy sluice]

It very much was

[solid hinge]

because cough cough spotting making pilots very useful

cough cough behemoths usually at least helped you get 1 sector

[icy sluice]

It was why I avoided Operations in BF1 nonstop

[midnight nimbus]

nah ops tended to be pretty nice if you wanted to vehicle farm

[solid hinge]

what? ops was worlds better than BT

[icy sluice]

Behemoths stood in their spawn 99% of the time

[midnight nimbus]

where else would they stand lol

[icy sluice]

Nothing ever happened so I just went to Conquest

[solid hinge]

ops was vehicle farm heaven

[midnight nimbus]

why would they need to stand anywhere else

[icy sluice]

They stood in their spawn and nothing was accomplished

No sector was taken and that was the match

[midnight nimbus]

imagine having weapons that can do long range and still exposing yourself up close anyways

[solid hinge]

pretty much

dreadnought was underrated tbh

[midnight nimbus]

what's the dreadnought supposed to do? sit at shore?

what you do you want the airship to do? just hover over the obj?

[icy sluice]

At least make it so that both guns can actualyl do damage

[midnight nimbus]

neither of these things make the behemoths better at their job

[solid hinge]

they can do damage from pretty far away

dreadnought especially

[midnight nimbus]

anyways, 64p BF1 is pure AIDS

32p was 10/10

[icy sluice]

Behemoths rarely did anything in Operations, it was rare that there was someone actually smart with them

[solid hinge]

they usually would guarantee at least 1 sector

keep in mind you get 2 behemoths if you're losing

[icy sluice]

I wish I kept track how many matches just ended at the first sector

Because man, so many matches I had fucking left because of that.

[solid hinge]

battalions could fix that tbh

resetting everything could force your team to try something else

[zenith pendant]

battalions only prolonged the inevitable

for an entire fucking hour

[icy sluice]

If we're on our third battalion at our first or second sector and there are three maps

[zenith pendant]

lol the fucking brit operation with 3 maps is fucking impossible

the final sector of Sinai

[midnight nimbus]

yeah I'd rather play one map at a time

[icy sluice]

I have only seen one match with the Brits winning that

[zenith pendant]

is a cockblocker without a tank

[solid hinge]

i've completed it many times

[midnight nimbus]

the 3 map combo is nonsense

[zenith pendant]

be honest with me

how many times did you play Empire's Edge

on operations

[icy sluice]

Also, it was rare even getting past the first match

[solid hinge]

a shit ton

[icy sluice]

Empire's Edge is after Monte Grappa right?

[zenith pendant]

yes

[icy sluice]

Twice

[zenith pendant]

once

[solid hinge]

wtf?

how many hours do you have?

[icy sluice]

250

[solid hinge]

i have 600 or so and i've played it a lot

[zenith pendant]

811

[sweet pawn]

429

[solid hinge]

i've also had some insane last second comebacks in monte grappa in the last sector

[icy sluice]

For the first like 175 hours or so, it was just Operations

[solid hinge]

tbf at least conquest in 1 didnt suck balls

[icy sluice]

75% of all matches were either just the first sector or all of the maps in one second

Conquest in 1 was the worst conquest mode of any BF

[sweet pawn]

is this bf1?

[midnight nimbus]

i only liked conquest on two maps in BF1

[sweet pawn]

oh

then

yes

[solid hinge]

it was fine honestly

[midnight nimbus]

which to be fair, is two maps more than BFV

[solid hinge]

yeah, i mean, it's okay

[sweet pawn]

yeah true that

[solid hinge]

cq in bfv is just, dont even touch it

[icy sluice]

Nah, I only really touch CQ in BFV

[solid hinge]

how

[icy sluice]

Because it's fun.

[solid hinge]

you hate bf1 ops but you like bfv conquest

i think you just prefer slower paced gameplay

[midnight nimbus]

I've played an entire 3 full rounds of BFV conquest

[sweet pawn]

huh

[solid hinge]

which is fine

[sweet pawn]

makes sense

[icy sluice]

I play V faster than I did 1

[solid hinge]

but i dont play video games to snooze off

that's.. impossible

[midnight nimbus]

BFV is already slow enough

[solid hinge]

1 is objectively a much faster paced game

without any doubt

[midnight nimbus]

yeah even pretty good players are getting like 30-50% lower KPM with SMGs than they did in BF1

[icy sluice]

I usually do like 4 laps around the map in V (small-medium size maps)

[midnight nimbus]

3 KPM in BF1 was pretty easy

[solid hinge]

yeah, finding fuck all to do most likely

[sweet pawn]

yeah

[midnight nimbus]

3 KPM in BFV is so ridiculously tiring

[sweet pawn]

they died so fast

[solid hinge]

finding the odd raspberry here and there

[sweet pawn]

but in BFV it's hard

[solid hinge]

i dont even know what my kpm is

i'll check

0.83 with medic

lol

[icy sluice]

1.27 in 1

[solid hinge]

1.19 with support

[sweet pawn]

noice

[midnight nimbus]

I'm a really passive player and my BF1 KPM is decently higher than my BFV KPM

[icy sluice]

1.04 in V but then again I fly more in V

I didn't touch planes in 1

[midnight nimbus]

1.73 in BF1

[solid hinge]

im really aggressive

[sweet pawn]

it's better than that slow ass heavy bomber in BF1

[midnight nimbus]

1.4 in BFV

[prime pine]

1.94 kpm w/ support

[midnight nimbus]

but my 1.73 KPM in BF1 was with almost all my playtime in the Alwaysreloading 8 35

[icy sluice]

1 was an easier game for me tbh

[solid hinge]

1.4 in bf1

[gray glade]

the 8.35 was so good tho

[solid hinge]

i guess it was offset by the ton of sniping i did

[sweet pawn]

1 was an easier game because it wasn't so damn SLOW

[midnight nimbus]

by the end of BF1, I could have 3 KPM games with the AL8 35 pretty comfortably

[zenith pendant]

2 in bf1

[gray glade]

like every clip was a sure kill

[zenith pendant]

2 in bfv

[midnight nimbus]

I have 8400 AL8 35 kills between the Marksman and Factory

[sweet pawn]

dang dude

[icy sluice]

Apparently my "Skill" in bf1 is in the top 0.7%

I still don't know what that means

[sweet pawn]

i used the Federov Avtomat and got less kills. only 3,000

[icy sluice]

But I guess that's good?

[severe wraith]

Nobody knows haha

[midnight nimbus]

some boomer stat that's inflated by standing on flags

and the XP boosts

[sweet pawn]

aahhh. seems legit

[solid hinge]

i'm top 0.3% with the gotha bomber xd

and 0.2 with the hansa brandenburg

0.1 with the airco

[icy sluice]

Fun Fact, Support Main in BF1
Recon Main in BFV.

[zenith pendant]

I think

[sweet pawn]

huh

[zenith pendant]

I think I have 5k melee kills in BF1

[sweet pawn]

interesting

[midnight nimbus]

I got pushed out of the top 100 leaderboard for AL8 35 kills awhile ago

sad

[zenith pendant]

750 of those from bayonets

[icy sluice]

Uh, I think Battlefield Tracker's stats for Cavalry is glitched because I definitely have more than 9 kills as one

[zenith pendant]

600 from cavalry melee

[sweet pawn]

500 from Cavalry

[zenith pendant]

top vehicle: Horse

[sweet pawn]

i think over 200 from just trampling people with the horse

[zenith pendant]

1499 kills

[sweet pawn]

JEEZ

[solid hinge]

i have almost 2k kills with the cavalry rifle

[zenith pendant]

[solid hinge]

that thing was hype af

[midnight nimbus]

based infantry only BF1

yum

[icy sluice]

lmao

[midnight nimbus]

BF1 was my break from degeneracy

[zenith pendant]

lol

[sweet pawn]

woaaaaah

[midnight nimbus]

played like a nice and clean infantry boi

[sweet pawn]

that's um-

[midnight nimbus]

no cheese

[zenith pendant]

top weapon cei-rigotty factory

[icy sluice]

Also note, 666 SMG 08

[zenith pendant]

with 800 kills

second top weapon bayonet charge

with 750 kills

[sweet pawn]

jeez

[icy sluice]

I did like the Cei Rigotti

[zenith pendant]

Oh yes

I am pretty sure

[solid hinge]

666 is a fitting number for the 08

that gun is satan itself

[zenith pendant]

that I have a service star

[zenith pendant]

for every single melee weapon in BF1

[icy sluice]

I purposely did that for that reason

[midnight nimbus]

I used to be unbelievably bad at BF1 though
https://battlefieldtracker.com/bf1/profile/pc/kht120/weapons

[gray glade]

sweet sweet bf4

[midnight nimbus]

literally sad af

[sweet pawn]

bayonet was fun. you could literally peek one corner, charge the other and get a kill

[midnight nimbus]

I spent months as a sub 1 K/D shitter

[icy sluice]

69 stars, nice

[midnight nimbus]

trying to use the AL8 35 meme

[solid hinge]

getting cheap bayonet kills on fort vaux

mm

[icy sluice]

Just impressed by the 69 there

[solid hinge]

cant wait for all the bayonet cheese on op metro

[sweet pawn]

oh no

that will be "fun"

[icy sluice]

I've realized that flares will be fucking useless on Metro

[solid hinge]

flanks will be GODLIKE

[sweet pawn]

why?

[icy sluice]

Well, actually, you can still fire them down the hall and get some spots

[midnight nimbus]

37% accuracy is so shit

I can't believe I spent months in BF1 being that garbage at the game

[solid hinge]

just imagine flanks in a game with no spotting, bad visibility and notoriously brain damaged players

[midnight nimbus]

1.5 KPM 37% acc

[solid hinge]

on a map like metro

[sweet pawn]

oh

[midnight nimbus]

lemme throw up

[sweet pawn]

well

[icy sluice]

I have 52% accuracy with the frag grenade

what?

[sweet pawn]

when you put it THAT way

[midnight nimbus]

but BF1 gave me the best sense of progression in FPS

the AL8 35 was genuinely pretty difficult to get good with

[solid hinge]

what system did you play bf1 on

pc?

[midnight nimbus]

far harder than any other gun in FPS that I've played

[sweet pawn]

i wish they could bring back weapons across all classes like BF4

[icy sluice]

I am on console so, of course you'll be more accurate than I am

[solid hinge]

the scoped rifles were extremely hard on console btw

they had very little aim assist

vs the iron sighted ones which had auto aim

[sweet pawn]

true

[midnight nimbus]

yeah I played on PC

[solid hinge]

the martini was actually a joke on console

even after the auto aim nerf

it was like playing cod sp

[midnight nimbus]

towards the end of BF1, i could have 3+ KPM 50+% accuracy rounds with the AL8 35

[icy sluice]

My most used gun in is the Flare Gun atm

[midnight nimbus]

and BFV turned my accuracy really sloppy bc you can just mash LMB hard with its ezmode gunplay

[solid hinge]

isnt it weird how people arent complaining about how unrealistic bfv's gunplay is?

im pretty sure ww2 guns werent that lasery

[sweet pawn]

yep

it was every 5th or 6th round was a tracer

[icy sluice]

I'd rather it be fun in that aspect

[sage vector]

br top bf

[solid hinge]

it's not that

[icy sluice]

@sage vector what?

[sage vector]

hehe

[solid hinge]

it's the ww1 experimental rifle spam shooting you at max fire rate while guy is strafing with hardly any spread

[sweet pawn]

oooohhhhhhh

that dumb stuff

[sage vector]

the bast player on brasilian

[icy sluice]

Why does Battlefield Tracker have Challenges btw?

What are those for?

[solid hinge]

to challenge you

[icy sluice]

What the hell is the Prize? It says there is one

[sweet pawn]

@sage vector Bem, veremos em um jogo real.

[icy sluice]

Please speak the English

[sage vector]

krl

pensei q era o unico

kkkk

[sweet pawn]

tal zez

*vez

[icy sluice]

English please.

[sweet pawn]

oh and for those who don't know that's portugese. sorry mate

[sage vector]

nem sou tao bom assim kkkk

[solid hinge]

why isnt there a foreign language channel

[sweet pawn]

idk

[sage vector]

kd d 3 no maximo

[sweet pawn]

good question

[icy sluice]

Yeah, uhh need to speak English, those are the rules @sweet pawn @sage vector

[solid hinge]

why isnt there a channel for other languages

[sage vector]

ok ok

[sweet pawn]

will do

[icy sluice]

But yeah there should be one

[midnight nimbus]

@solid hinge I mean I can't fully speak to how WW2 guns are

bc the only guns from that era I've personally fired are an MG42 and a 1911

but guns tend not to kick up that badly

bc physics

[sage vector]

which battlefield is your favorite?

[midnight nimbus]

but i guess guns are pretty lasery irl

[pale anvil]

are you an american @midnight nimbus
