so it's shit musti 
i spent last weekend trying to join games, ended up playing firestorm
Sten works fine for me
you got a link for these stats?
Damnnn
i wouldn't mind bookmarking it
They really do hate the suomi and the tommy
Lemme grab the reddit post with the google doc in
I guess I have to wait until next month before i download the game again
@hoary condor have you seen twitter lately? š
shit that loaded...
This has actually made the tommy and suomi more relevant than before
There was a whole war after my tweet :/
why?
Whatās wrong with deleting a game you dont like anymore
after a year
Surprised you even deleted it

Some people say they're going to uninstall bfv and they never do
Me lol
Lol
squid is a fraud
Whenever I say I delete a game then Iāll delete it
Reddit in a nutshell

Ok, I went back to base game. Brits get the 40mm now, which massively outclassed the German AA gun
In range and damage
i get annoyed then play death stranding to "relax" then when i want fps
can't go to cod 
I play Destiny 2 now
i tried that, not a fan
Even though I want to go back to BFV but not in itās current state
I keep coming back to this game for some reason tho
I get frustrated and shit
But i still come back
same
Lmao Iāve the same feeling
It's like a love and hate relationship
And they're free
Yeah
They actually look decent
the worst i thing i dont like is, people take it personally and attack the devs etc... it's really not fair on them. They work with the resources given and do a dam good job. Shame that people threaten them over a bloody game...
Reddit is goin crazy tho
I know
Ikr squid
To small for bombers :(
Tbh I donāt hate anyway for this mess. I loved the game, the people who kept telling me to āadaptā shouldāve adapted the pre 5.2 ttk themselves.
I tried adapting it but itās just boring and frustrating
But oh how my muscle memory really fucks up my gunfights
Playing infantry the entire year and this happens
This is the only problem i had with this TTK change
True, i will support the game, EA and Dice as they are good. few issues can be ironed out but sadly in the bf community they are now expert devs
magically overnight
I think i kill someone after a specific amount of bullets but he's not DEAD
Does the high velocity mg42 still melts players?
I donāt want to hate but the persons who didnāt agree with me are mostly the players with bad stats..
Bf is still better than most other shooters tho
No

@sonic rampart True
š
š
I don't wanna play the new cod tho
TTK too fast and campers
you can't destroy buildings to counter them :/
@hoary condor now it actually makes sense to use š

Is that
i know 
Yeah....
the last time we played and i had to win duos because of your bad uber driving 
Shhhhhh
Let's keep talking
ā
tbf @sonic rampart you are really fun to play with.. your a good person 
Has any1 ever said anything about the level progression bug fix??
@sonic rampart whats ur psn
@hoary condor you too buddy 
š
@solid hinge i said he is fun i didn't say good 
If not check the pins
Wow
Ahh nvm then
the end of the round stuff is fixed atleast
@sonic rampart Sorry for asking
Roger @coral fiber
joking lol
Thanks
Np
@sonic rampart whats ur psn
Anyway you awesome people, i need to head off and get the next train š have a fun, relaxed, safe time ā¤ļø
Bye
No
@solid hinge why?
Iām salty 

Wait
hello salty 
@sonic rampart Maybe I want to play with u
My kd is like 1.4 
I heard ur good
The BAR has 2 standard muzzles
Ahh nvm then
One with an extension

And one without
Sorry for asking
i still have another stop 
The gold muzzle on the BAR is disgusting
premature leave
I hate it
The BAR needs a drum mag š
chocolateBAR
Huehuehue
Does the BAR even have a drum mag irl
no
Which style is the gold muzzle @coral fiber
No haha
@brave coral the long flat one with holes on the sides
Like a sniper muzzle
Some guy was in here attacking people who said that giving the BAR a drum mag and making it like an MMG was a dumb idea
Oh
I quite like that one, but itās a weird choice on an LMG
I usually don't have muzzles on my weapons because they look ugly as hell
It looks good on snipers and semi autos though
That's just my personal preference
I always use default muzzles
Some weapons I just leave without a muzzle, but quite a few I just have one that goes with the set Iām using
So normally Mint/Gold
Mint is good for immersive type gameplay
Gold is just asserting dominance
Mint is classy
Yeah
Gold is heehoo shiny gun
Golden AT rifles 
I kinda want to get my Boys gold lmao
The BAR did have a 40 rnd mag tho
Bye
BAR with 40 round mag would be mental
Mint is also nice in that it tends to keep the iron sights the same
š
Tbh the bar has now outshadowed the FG42
Unless your gun is called the M1 Garand in which you get a close range scope
Not one that was used commonly afaik @modern sedge
The iron sight on the BAR is way too big
BAR is stil absolute trash outside of it intended range
The fix isn't giving it more ammo
the fix is REVERT TO THE OLD FUCKING TTK
They wont
Old news
Yeah Iām not a fan of random sight types on the newer guns
Its not happening ever
BAR is one of the best MGs at range what are you on about
Atp i could care less about the old TTK
When itās slow
It's not going to happen m8
Yeah slow firing BAR is a beast
Yeah
Itās like a āpocketā Madsen
THE FIX ISNT TO GIVE POOR PEOPLE MORE MONEY
THE FIX IS TO FIX THE ECONOMY
Just need to nail your shots and dink
thatās what you sound like
I think FG42 needs an RPM increase to 900 or something
Despite being bigger
I've adjusted to the new TTK
Iāve adjusted to your mom 
My old TTK muscle memory is fucking me up so bad
I havenāt played with the FG for a bit, but I always felt it could do with some small adjustments to make it more like a heavy AR
bar seems exceptionally good right now
Bruh you just click until they die what more is there to do 
Improve hipfire and a few other stats
better close up than the other LMGs and has bootleg madsen mode
Because i always think they die after a certain amount of bullets but i do 98 damage every single time
@soft storm tbf with certain guns at least you tend to hold the trigger for a certain length of time then stop

Thatās why Iām saying FG should get an RPM increase
Which fucks you up occasionally
give fg42 a 10 mag with 900rpm
irl it could be 10 mag 900rpm so itll even get the historically accurate people
No
because the idea of a 10 mag 900rpm gun is really funny
Historical accuracy doesn't exist here
Ik itās a different gun but wasnāt there a 10 round mag for the MAB? Imagine the dumb
It's not awful but i dont see the point in using it over the BAR
I mean low mag automatic weapons are never going to be a good choice in a video game
3x scope on a 20 mag gun that takes 6 hits beyond 20 metres
Purely because if you balance them relative to other guns, they get screwed over, and if you balance them based on their own stats, they become OP relative to other guns
The longer ADS time makes it harder to use
kappa THIS
hipfires light bolt suomi into the wall
wait fuck
Kappa deez nuts
w-what do you mean broken
They always have
That said, I think automatic guns with small mags can have an interesting niche
They double in damage if the player is sprinting
Incendiary grenades have always felt sketchy as fuck
I take MASSIVE damage from incendiaries and my incendiaries do like 10 damage
Like the RSC SMG in bf1, it could have been a really nice little automatic skill cannon-type gun
thats the fun part!
not all the weapons have to be viable if they have a niche like that, but they seem to want to give everything a niche by chucking it in a set range zone
which is imo significantly less fun
If it was way more accurate and had a fast reload, it would have been a cool one to force you to pick your opportunities, but instead itās horribly inaccurate, has a stupidly long reload, and doesnāt even output good damage
Theyāre artificially making niches
Isnāt that basically how it is now though? With a few exceptions
I mean ngl I havenāt played 5.2.2 so this is based off word of mouth
āLost connection to game sessionā
And a little bit of gameplay
5.2.2 feels a lot better but some guns still feel a bit more powerful than others
That sounds like it might have been more of an internet problem on your end? It could have basically cut out for a second which just disconnects you straight away @dusky badge
My internet is fine
whats all this talk about balance changes? the game feels no different
the mp34 was such a shit gun earlier
the mp34 is a bayonet killing machine lol
Wait is the MP34 good now?
I always used it as a completely off-meta gun lol
it was the same with the p08 carbine and the trench carbine, p08c is 1 less btk past 75 metres
Iāll get a gun Gold and then just not use it for ages
even though thats almost entirely meaning;less
using the pistol carbines at 75m
Like I havenāt used the Sten, MP40, Suomi for ages on Medic
Bren and FG on Support
I only have two guns completely Gold for Assault actually
Oh and the MG34 on Support as well
And VGO
Fortunately I got the MG34 gold wayyy before it became mostly outclassed by the M1919A6
Only thing itās got going for it really is the double drum mag which has a very quick reload, but I donāt like using that spec
It literally blocks the entire bottom of your screen when you ADS
I think the balancing of them was tweaked at some point?
Idk
Theyāve always been strong from a damage output view, itās just most of them in the base game maps are in poor positions so you were limited by using them
Theyāre mad on Underground though
yep
And thereās a pretty good one on Fjell, going into the second sector
As defenders, right up at the edge of the playable area on the right side of the map (looking towards Brit spawn) thereās a little box of sandbags with a gun in it. You can hold down that entire lane for ages
why is my medic customization the same as my assault customization and when i change one the other changes too
Change the character youāre using
bruh why the hell
Makes it easier to quickly change uniforms
But also you can only have three appearances for the Pacific factions if youād rather not play as a woman
It was a change they did a while ago, definitely could have implemented it better
an option for that would be better because i don't wanna use some guy as a german assault that literally looks like he ate way too much before he was drafted
Just make it so we can create pre set outfits that are applied to the character
Did anyone ask

When it's 1 vs 2, you're gonna get fucked regardless of how skilled you are
They ruined this game
and this "hotfix" is pathetic
just get headshots
Ttk is nice because you dont get killed in 1 second now
Shut up
š
Change my mind
Because 1 bullet more makes all the difference
Not going to try because I agree @solid hinge
So rather than play the game and actually get good with the new TTK
It's more than just 1 bullet. Outisde of its intended ranges guns are useless
i still support a full revert but at least this is better than before

@solid hinge You will get killed in a sec because bullets are ment to kill people and because that guy flanked you.
That's like saying that rotten puke is better than rotten shit
I'm done with this game
Ok
This is pathetic
Bye
Again
If its a face to face 1v1, your reflexes are shit
Did anyone ask?
that was a garbage comparison ngl
Destroy Dick December?
no don't dispute december
Yeah, kill the enemies with love and kindness!
If it's a 1v1 20+ meters away fhen i should win with a m1 grand rather then the guy with the Tommy gun @solid hinge
DDD
Dnice
Dguy
December
My StG is called Love and my M1911 is called Kindness
is that because they literally tickle your enemies
Yeah I think thatās how it should be
Also STG44 is fucking op now lmfao
weapons do no damage and shoot confetti for christmas?
play AT rifles on infantry if u wanna get some love ā¤ļø
Weapons have a range which they will win a fight at unless youāre terrible
thats how they were in the first place though
Then outside of that, you can definitely still win a fight, you just need to be more skilled than the guy with the weapon more suited for that range
u can survive 3 BAR headshots on long range ._.
Not if itās the slow BAR
@brave coral Thats how it worked in 5.0
Get that pocket Madsen damage
How much is headshot multiplyer
Now its just imposssible
Not really
the hs multipliee is either 2 or 1,7 not sure
headshot multiplier on most guns is 1.8, on certain guns its 2
At 30m SMGs would tend to be winning a fight against an SAR without all that much more skill needed
no lmao
Unless everyone I came up against had their TV off
Which tbf with this game is a distinct possibility
Whatās the AGM42 like now?
Yeah I think theyāve still got SARS in a bit of a bad position in that they havenāt been touched in 5.2.2
From what Iāve heard
Are heavy SARS still 3-4
only semi that got touched was the agm
MAS44 can be used for any range, but if i came to a suomi at cqb, he would destroy me
I cri
which went from 300rpm 4btk to 360rpm 4btk
Turner and Mas are 300 now I think
Honestly I still need to play more and test stuff
I havenāt played at all since 5.2.2, and tbh not that much since 5.2 either
And thereās basically entire groups of weapons Iāve not touched
360rpm semis went to 300rpm, 300rpm semis went to 257rpm, selb 1916 went to 200rpm (225 with trigger job)
m1a1 keeps 450rpm but with awful damage
sounds like they are thinking it would be a headshot machine
m1a1 is very nice, just focus on the head
if its easy to use it should be the headshot gun
beyond 10 metres its a 3btk even if all headshots
https://imgur.com/5QIOlRC hey braddock is in my game
how does that compare to other guns
under 10 metres it loses to basically every automatic
hi braddock lol
450 rof with 3btk sounds decent
automatics should beat it under 10m
which is extremely close range and probably not likely either
need 1More quickly for mastery assigments
braddock k/d tho
on pc... please
having to tap fire at 450rpm and consistently only land headshots is painful
@rustic whale yeah we had a 99-12 sniper who claimed he was "legit"
there's automatics with very little recoil that do effectively the same thing
oh well then i understand
I need to check it out but wasnāt it a 4BTK even right up close in 5.0?
trench carbine damage model aint much different at m1a1 range
Also 99-12 is certainly doable for a good sniper
i really enjoyed the trench carabine before they ruined the ttk
yea the effort doesnt sound worth it
but make it any more easier would probably be broken for people who can use it
Trench Carbine is one of the best guns after 5.2 though
yeah but it's damage drop got higher and the automatics got more accurate
You can still be absolutely dropping people at like 30m as long as you can track
the p08c is now entirely replaced by the trench essentially but the trench has basically 0 recoil now
Although itās an automatic pistol Carbine. I donāt think the M1A1 should have the same damage model
using the lattey sight with the trench was hilarious
Kinda sad that the P08C is irrelevant now
Itās like objectively worse in any way that matters than the Trench
Needs a new niche I think
p08c was already mostly irrelevant compared to the trench but now it absolutely is
Ohoho Iāve only just begun
But yeah the moment the Trench was added P08 was immediately just the less popular pick
Iād still love to see a few more pistol carbines though
trench was p08 but easier to use with bigger mag
the auto fire mode was a godsend for the trench
PO8 needs a significant range increase compared to Trench I reckon
Like Trench should be a 4btk up to 10
Maschinenpistole 1912 with an insane RoF like pre-nerf bf1 version, perhaps M1911 with a smaller mag than others (still extended) and a better damage model
While PO8 needs to be up to 16-20 or something
AT cannon guys are literally invisible now, okay
I believe there was a Russian Nagant Revolver carbine?
It wasnāt quite
the obrez
Which could be a very niche weapon
?
It was called the pieper or something
Nah just a revolver with a stock and extended barrel
Maybe it wasnāt a Russian one
Yeah I find the idea of like an alternate history steampunk setting where they never really developed magazines pretty cool
Instead most guns rely on revolving tech
You could definitely have some fun with worldbuilding there
:v
Stuff like that... very cool
There was a revolving shotgun in this one game I played for a bit
I think it was a Remington
I was kinda sad when I unlocked it though bc for some reason I thought it was a sniper rifle
That was in CoD Ghosts and in some other game...
Ya talking about the MTS?
why have i suddenly become absolute garbage after not having played for a week or two? this is the only game where i lose this much skill after not playing
Quite possibly @icy sluice
@rustic whale Could be linked to the weapon balancing patch
@rustic whale pretty big changes if the period of inactivity spans the 5.2 patch
it happened before it too but gotta admit that i play worse than usually after not having played
What other games do you play?
osu, CS:GO, Hoi4, HLL and r6s
lol, i do play that too
I guess maybe because those games (at least from what I know/have seen) are more to do with strategy and position whereas thatās not the main focus in this game?
possible
Idk what osu and Hoi4 are
hoi4 is grand strategy and osu is based completely on aim and clicking
Dice new update is like coca cola company piss in the bottle and think it will be better taste
Donāt drink Coke of Cola then
Bone app the teeth
bone apple tea
what does dice achieve by changing the ttk though, why not just keep it as it was lol
Depends who you ask
christmas noobs don't like a game that's just based on holding mouse 1
because guns were too strong on longer ranges
Because the execs at dice and ea have the thinking process of a 5 year old
too strong in longer ranges? nah bro they were just fine
Guns were not strong at long ranges. They were difficult to handle at long ranges, but if you were SKILLED ENOUGH you could uset them for long range
Now it doesn't matter how skilled you are, guns are useless outside of intended range.
And we're not talking even long range. Most guns are useless beyond 20 fucknng meters. That's NOT LONG RANGE
it literally takes like 2sec of spraying with body hits to kill someone with an stg from cqc and then a KE7 just comes in like HA BOI u don't have time to react like ok
so whats the best general purpose medic weapons?
i been floating between mp40 and emp but im not sure
emp imo is best
Type 100
Just good at any range you would expect an smg to be good at
ehh, ive seen a ton of type 100
and in my scrim they were all using it
i think theres something behind it
ah shit keep forgetting that
because type 100 is/was a laser
Type 100 is the new meta
i don't really want to take the time to learn every weapon again because now i just feel stiff and this game feels so damn annoying with taking more bullets to kill than i expect it to
type 100 was ultra good before hotfix, should still be on par with EMP right now
Ye I still sometimes stop shooting
Soumi and Tommyguna re useless still
Is the garand any better
Nope
whaaaat
at long range no
tommy gun is amazing now
Because in my memory I think someone shouldve already dropped
But cause of the change they dont
Close range smgs are actually good at close range now
Wow who knew
why are the close range smg useless?
Because they try to make game noob friendly
n00bs dont like getting killed in 0.4 seconds
So Dice made them bullet sppundgy
but that doesnt make them useless
you still die 0.4 seconds if you use guns in their effective ranges now
IF
just don't expect to kill a guy at 100m with a medium ranged gun
you can still pop him, but you need actual skill and aim now
Hey, for how long can I get the BAR
is there like a countdown timer?
before it moves on to the next thing?
till thursday. after that you need to wait a week to buy it with cc
it just says two days the timer
The game made it harder for noobs
Considering my friends got the game for the pacific only to delete it all because guns are weak as hell
ugh the bar feels terrible
It's a great weapon
The bar is inconsistent.
how so? 20 bullets for a gun thats worse than ke7?
I wouldnāt say itās bad or good
no thank you
Cant you change fov
the BAR had great iron sights in BF1
You can change FOV but it has no affect on the iron zooms.
@main grove This would be great
Thereās a thing you can do that makes irons zoom in more
But in that it makes your default zoom FOV 70
Theres an option which is off or on
But that would go for all guns. And the BAR is the only one I have a problem with
Itās something like ADS FOV or something
Yup
But it also makes 1x zoom sights zoom in a bit
I think BAR should have considerable recoil to give a reason to use FG42 over it
FG42 should be a laser
While BAR is the LMG SMG stand in
I feel like the BAR just doesnāt look right with the AA sights. But Iām almost forced to use them
Sym.gg isnāt updated Rn with 5.2.2
Itās still 5.2
Still saying FG is a 5-12 BTK
FGās reload is I dunno it feels slow and fast at the same time
Like itās fast but your guy doesnāt look like heās working fast
dog fighting in this game is absolute garbage
See it doesnāt really matter if dogfighting g is bad if the planes respawn quite fast
But they donāt on Base maps
For some reason vehicles respawn super fast on Pacific
It should be like that for normal maps
finger gun
1-5 literally wins a gunfight against an MMG from 30m
i think the corsair is the best ar
v1
i was bipoded and spraying directly at him, hitmarker after hitmarket, i think i got 7, he killed me even though i was partially in cover
just gotta love the amazing balance
^
how is it on me
is the S2-200 useless right now?
dont use bad guns or guns not made for their range
if an MMG and an assault rifle have a direct gunfight from medium distance, the MMG should obviously win and the only thing i could've done better was get headshots but he didn't get them either so it was a level playing field, the MMG should win
Stop being an MMG sluglord and PTFO
you can use mmgs and still PTFO lol
i am testing weapons to at least get some understanding of what is going on
S2-200 is a very weird gun IMO, it's basically a bipoded assault rifle and i kind of like it but it has a very different playstyle compared to other MMGs
its one of those guns u never see someone using, like the vgo or mg34
honestly i think that it should have higher damage because it doesn't really have any of the good attributes a normal MMG has
Guys how do you build a snowman for the rare reward?
it has very limited mobility and a small mag, at least it's accurate though, but it's really hard to get kills with unless you just sit somewhere and wait
small mag
the match i'm in RN is 6vs18
I always thought S2-200 should have had amazing Hipfire
@high shadow go to wake island. look for the infamous plaque easter egg at the airfield, near the point end of the island. you can build a snowman there. near A there are two snowmen as well. F has one near a destroyed tank i thhink
Same with VGO but VGO should have a little more recoil
To make it a more aggressive MMG
theres a snowman on wake island breakthrough at the first objective inside a crane
basically dice, instead of actually improving the game by implementing proper anti cheat and a team balancer, they decide to mess up the TTK
or just play fjell and go to E near the AA
@gray saffron Thank you very much! @solid carbon (love the name btw) thanks!!
no problem š
i still hope that they will change some things again, i bet theres still a shitstorm in the battlefield subreddit
cuz they get lots of upvotes
they're accurate though
i think a lot of goodbye threads on there are just from people not even playing the game. as they all still mention the passive spotting
the passive spotting is still there?
no, it isn't?
i thought they just reduced it
they did
so is it or is it not
which AT nerf?
tanks are OP btw
the if you look a certain direction and people are spotted is gone. now it's just when you look at a guy it gets a dorito. but that was in 5.0 as well
5.2 implemented passive spotting, 5.2.2 reduced it but didn't remove it, before that there was no passive spotting..?
did dude really say that reddit memes are accurate?
well some of them are
#doubt
there was passive spotting during 5.0. but it worked very inconsistent.
reddit is about being as ridiculous you can be for upvotes, memes are the same thing, combine the two and you want to say thats accurate?
i think the angle that you had to look at people was also larger than it is in 5.2.2
wow that sucks
memes can be an accurate depiction of reality, u know
thats hardly the use of them
at mines do 25 to medium tanks, 20 to heavy tanks
its not nearly as fun to say "this game is average" than saying " game is so broken flex tape cant even fix it"
why do they nerf everything they need to
yes we will nerf literally every gun :) oh you don't like it? we'll buff them a bit but not fully, and oh btw now your AT stuff is garbage. either or guys, either or :)))
repairtools is the only way i dare to attack tanks now. jeepstuff isn't effective anymore. dyna+nade doesn't do shit. it's terrible day to be an assault player š¦
instead of an actual balancing to tanks they just make AT stuff useless and tanks essentially immortal
it just feels like they are trying to get off the easiest way without actually putting in any thought or effort
considering they changed weapons to where its harder to balance i dont think they are trying to take the easy way out
i think they just fucked up on tanks
they fucked up on everything
dice essentially said "fuck gun balance weve been doing for a year, we are changing it"
yea they didnt get a good balance right off the bat, thats asking a lot
it took them a week to get to a good state
5.2.2 isnt even a good balance
thats basically best case scenario
one gun is OP? let's make every gun garbage then
id love to see ANYONE balance changes like this on first attempt
apparently everyone can
they messed it up so bad they had to hotfix changes in asap
Lmfao
that ain't a good sign
everyone thinks they could do better
i completely support a full revert because 5.2.2 is shit and very poorly balanced, 5.2 was even worse. in an ideal system every single weapon should be a viable choice and weapon utilization should be nearly even along all weapons, not like it is now or will be in a few days or weeks that only a few guns are used
i wish we could have a skin system like in BF1
and what about all customization being unlockable through gameplay? that's what they said before launch, no?
apparently they dont have a "revert" button, like they cant revert it the way they did a year ago
REALISTIK SKIN PLZ^^
cuz the update is bigger than that
they would need to individually change every single gun back
just because you think you can doesnt mean you can
people in here talking like btk is the end all and say they can balance 50ish guns all at once
good luck with that
the balance before 5.2 was fine, why not just go back to that and work from there instead of literally making a whole new system and potentially having to rebalance all weapons one by one when they could just accomplish the same with less work
not fine but yeah, I think 5.0 was better than 5.2 in term of balance maybe
because pre 5.2 balance was essentially "most things work in most situations" which is lazy balancing
no it wasn't like that
lol yes it was
i agree that some of the changes they made in 5.2 was obviously not going to work
no it wasn't
yeah it was like
thats why ESB scrim rules banned suomi and thompson
most of the guns work in most situations, so at least we got some variety
close range smgs that melted up close could still be used at range
guns had scenarios where they worked and scenarios where they didn't, it wasn't like every gun is good in every situation
no, guns had a scenario where they worked best, but still worked anywhere else
every gun except maybe shotguns should be usable in other situations but really effective only in certain types of situations, that's basically how it was
honestly i think that it's good
guns work in the majority of situations
theres no better way of balancing
^
How do i get the boom stick???
its preference to if you want all guns to work well in most situations
@solid hinge wait until January
or want defined ranges and balanced that way
"work" and "work well" are different things
REEEEE

granted ranges is harder to balance and not many games have this type of balancing to weapons
agreed
@solid hinge do u know if there is any new vehicles coming to the american team or the japanese team?
PUBG style balancing imo is really good, nearly every weapon works in nearly every situation but there are only a few that work well
the idea that people try to act like guns should be a 9/10 for their niche range and at least 7/10 for every other range is weird
then there are the very fast firing guns that are absolute beasts in CqC but useless from beyond that and i like that system where there are some guns that are ok from every distance but not really good from any and some guns that are good from some distance and near useless from others
Tommy and suomi lost to guns better at distance though
They just functioned
Ignored 
of course better guns at range should win
the problem was that suomi melted close, and could still challenge at range
im not talking SLR range
of course it should be able to challenge at range
the thing is that it just isn't very good at it
thats how you want it
that doesnt mean thats the universal "this is how everything should be done"
when did i say it's the universal how everything should be done
having guns suck outside their designated range isnt bad design
you said it should be that way..
not you bingus
megis said he said thats not how he said it should be, when he literally did
of course i meant that it's my opinion, what do you think, this is an opinionated discussion if you haven't realized
i try to clarify opinions from facts
cant blame me for going by whats there
otherwise i would be assuming
sometimes it's good to make assumptions u know
ehh, in my line of work thats how you lose your job
so ive been conditioned to not do that
discord quite likely isn't your work so i don't see your point
that i have lots of situations where assuming is not a good idea
this isn't one of them
again, if that wasnt what you mean, thats what you should say
in a discussion based on opinions, i assume that i don't specifically have to clarify that i am indeed saying my own opinion, not an absolute and indisputable fact
SWBF2 discord went down
Damn that must be a lot of traffic, the update video is number one on YouTube
Imagine that for this game
swbf2 is actually becoming good now but i've heard that DICE no longer works on it, maybe that is the reason
which dice
Thatās criterion and motive that moved on
Dice LA
No
Or not
Itās Dice Stockholm
i thought they said that only criterion works on it now?
Itās the same damn dice
swbf2 has a long way to go before being good
it is close to good
Little disappointed there isn't a festive skin for the BAR.
All fair progression
Just the boring old palm skin next week.
You can get every skin in the game for 25 bucks with the celebration edition
Meh
Is the ttk fixed?
they managed to fix swbf2 after a garbage launch, could they fix battlefield now too please :)
@soft stormIs it similar to the old ttk
first change wasnt a ttk change, it defined ranges, which nerfed most guns effective ranges
Guns will only take about 2-2.5 the amount of bullets at ranges now instead of 3x in some scenarios
Except they worded it so it wouldnāt be āweāre changing the TTKā
Which turned into a bigger shitstorm

yea the wording i saw was "ttk changes are not the goal"
in doing what they wanted to do, the ttk for 90% of guns got changed
what rhe heck
Ok so I'm probably staying on War Thunder
the sub reddit is still toxic
@solid hingeWhat did you expect
i'm having deja vu here
remove reddit from existence
reddit is always toxic
yeah i expected it to be toxic
The worst thing about reddit are those reddit videos on yt
all those askreddit videos
Yea
i doubt you will ever have 90% of gun being viable for 90% of ranges and faster ttk that leads to "who sees who first wins"
what tf did they smoke giving the medic the jungle carbine 
isnt the problem that they didnt change jungle carbine with 5.2?
pre 5.2 i dont recall many people talking about it like it was a problem
that's because all the recon guns or bolt carbines were outsniped by semis and shit.
what weapons for each class are the best in your opinion with the 5.2.2 hotfix?
the type 100 is a fave among many medics
honestly same as before
STG 44 is still amazing
type 100 is still amazing
and everything else sucks
I've heard good things about the Gewehr 1-5, the Madsen MG and the Gewehr M95 from YouTubers though
The 6-pounder from the mosquito still does no damage to planes
ah ye,zh29 god mode
m1907 for close imo
granted, i havent played a lot of guns
only got a few games in yesterday
so nothing changed actually,still some weapons are way op compared to the others
suomi felt weak up close compared to m1907
idk if they are op, or just have their effective ranges commonly come up
In which class is the m1907?
like suomis effective range is unlikely unless you are playing certain maps or play certain ways
assault
Oh
stg almost feels like beta,why tf did they buff it even more lol
nah,not that op,but still way to strong
stg was like 8/10 at all ranges in beta
even my lovely suomi struggled against the stg in beta

but it's still like 95% play the same few weapons
How long do y'all think it will take for dice Sweden to bring in the Soviets?
which is kinda sad
Tru
ehh, that will always be the case
is soviets even confirmed ?
i cant think of any game off the top of my head that has a good spread of weapon choices
I heard its in 2 chapters time @haughty pawn
soviets isnt confirmed officially, but I think everyone knows they will be added eventually
that's a long time to go hmm
when is a different matter
Idk, asking out of curiosity since the Soviets played a vital role in ww2, that's why it doesn't make sense that they aren't in bfv yet
Because the game was originally going to focus on less known battles.
Well it took th3m a year for the pacific
Can't wait to fight germans in the snow
yeah, it is a growing trend for AAA games to be unfinished these days .-.
Because the game was originally going to focus on less known battles.
@nova cedar I can't tell if your joking
how was bfv unfinished?
@analog mist I see, but I'm pretty sure that alone will not help make bfv better, bring in the iconic battles too
They did a good job at least with the pacific
Thats debateable
theyre completely overhauling core parts of the gameplay over a year after release
i do wonder how could bf5 be unfinished
lmaoo
changing doesnt mean it was unfinished...
obviously if core gameplay was unfinished it wouldnt work
So what does everyone think of the chances we get guns for Christmas again this year?

@dense bone well, i was speaking about it's launch, and there were a lot of bugs from what I heard
That's true
Bfv needed more time
so lets call that unfinished, they tried changing it early in launch, community cried about it
They hadnt even things that were supposed to be at launch
And delayed it for 1 month
i mean, they still dont have things like dragging
but that was just a stupid thing in the first place
oh man i completely forgot about dragging
wtf
Dragging was scrapped outright.
I liked that idea
only problem with bfv is the amount of bugs that come up
But it would be useless
Whole lot of people don't remember or weren't around for BF4 launch, and the year following.
yea you can bring up tank customization as indication of the game not being finished, but thats a petty point
@analog mist exactly
Makes BFV look flawless.
^

the only objective negatives to bfv is the amount of bugs
but at least its not bf4
a game that didnt work for half a year iirc
@analog mist I remember it, it was awful
why is every wake island game i get filled with like 10 ppl
they are probably trying to get more servers going
You shot down bomber, no damage, he comes back and kill you. Nice game...
so whats the takeaway from this that dice has graced us with only a half broken game instead of a completely broken game? 
an improvement
Is it a new bug?
eu
Pumped him with like 15 shots spot on and did no damage
empty server bug back ?
@nova cedar then I guess just bad servers :feelsbadman:
In the end when the new battlefield comes out, BFV will suddenly be the best one to date and the new one will be shat on.
As is the custom.
@solid hinge what is worse i have nice begging on hamada
the biggest pain anyone can feel in Battlefield 1 is when there is a medic who wont revive you, change my mind
?
Imagine not using the server browser in a Battlefield game lol
@solid hinge Arty truck on hill.
@analog mist let's hope something like that doesn't happen again
That too
@solid hinge that never applys to me cuz whenever im getting shot at in a plane i always jump out

@analog mist Thats almost as bad as a medic who wont revive you
@solid hinge 
Absolute shitter @solid hinge
I love with when their is a arty truck with a aa gun next to them


Also when they go fucking 133-0
i hope we never ever get another arty truck in the *future of battlefield
Wait was that a common occurrence in bf1? Thatās... more than I realised
And then when people speak up we know who to beat up
I still maintain tanks would be better if turret and driver were different seats. Make them as powerful as you want, just separate the two.
Makes sense why they took them out of bfv
@analog mist this dude reading my mind
bf1 breakthrough was littered with arty trucks
Iād still like infantry portable mortars though
btw, does anyone here enjoys using AA vehicles in bfv? I would like some tips for these since I'm interested in using them once I can
yeah i'd support that
@gray glade cough grand ops cough
@solid hinge yea
so used to BFV
@analog mist itās an interesting idea, but I donāt know that it would work in battlefield
I'd only support moving turret and driver if driver also gets a gun
Itās marketed as having some heavy teamplay aspect
Like the gunner position machine gun driver can control or something
infantry should require two players too
driver shouldnt get a gun but a pistol
My tip for the German aa tank is not to get the "upgraded" aa
one player runs one player shoots
@solid hinge A machine gun would be fine for the driver.
oh yea that makes sense
@solid hinge why not?
Imagine the battlefield V player base trying to use a tank with that set up
cause you cant trust most people in your vehicle
Cause it sucks ass
just look at pakwagens
Its just a normal mounted aa gun
Realistically itās like you get squads which are just mobile spawns, and people press the button it tells them to to give you heals and ammo
Its too slow and you can pump out more damage cause of the sheer rate of fire the normal one has
i stopped using that thing when my teammate got in the driver seat and charged it into the objective when i was trying to take out a tank 
I'm just saying if people are going to claim teamwork is needed to kill a tank, then the tank should also require a little more itself in that regard.
@solid hinge ok, what about gameplay tips for these aa tanks, like, where should I position it, what planes should I target more, etc
O okay
I think stuff like Arma have separate positions but itās a milsim
And youāre much more likely to be using voice chat either with a squad or randoms
Try and position on the middle of the maps or over looking objectives
doesnt even have to be a milsim to not give the power of an entire tank to 1 person
And just try to go for any plane really
in arma i have trouble enough coordinating a tank i cant imagine how to do it in bf5 where nobody will ever talk ever
thats just reasonable to me
BF3/4 did the best job of giving the full tank potential to two people
Ok, I though u would tell me to target bombers though @solid hinge
solo tanking was ok, but you really really wanted two
Literally every pakwagen I've ever been in has been ruined by randoms getting in and fucking it up
Yes but bombers aren't too bad
The gunner positions on tanks should be stronger
@midnight nimbus I think thatās how it should be
And most fighters now a days have anti tank capability
Friendly reminder a system like that has already been in battlefield before, remember the Mark V Landship in BF1?
@solid hinge sometimes is better without gunner
and BF3/4 did it without stupid shit like splitting up driving and gunning
u cant flank tanks with noob gunner
pepega
says the dude that suggesting splitting an infantry player in response
But you should definitely be able to do ok in a tank playing solo just because ultimately itās Battlefield, which is the most casual ārealisticā game ever

hyperbole
stupid af hyperbole
you must construct additional nythons
yeah, gunner worked well in 3 and 4
because you don't get the full tank capability without your gunner
yeah and i fucking hate the landship in bf1 becuase the driver never ever faces you where you can shoot and when youre driving the gunners never ever shoot what you want them to
bad uber driving? I remember getting 5 stars
