[solid hinge]

They better nerf the vehicles in the next update but I can expect the worse

Buffing them up even more

[main grove]

What the fuck are the AA sights in the Type 97 MG

Why does your guy jam them so close to his eye

[solid hinge]

@main grove they fixed it

1 day ago

[main grove]

The type 97 is an actual piece of shit

It’s sights are so bad

The irons are both obtrusive and the front post is extremely thick

It’s not even so much that

When you fire

[strong parrot]

lool first time I ADS with that thing last night i thought i was having a stroke those irons were such trash

[main grove]

The bullets land above the sights

They’re not even aligned right

It’s like you’ve got the zeroing set to 500m or something on them

[prime pine]

Its not just that dweller

Its overall performance is really bad

[honest sapphire]

Of type 97

Ot what gun

Or

[main grove]

The MG

[honest sapphire]

What one

[main grove]

Type 97 MG

[honest sapphire]

Ohh

I was actually thinking it would be good

[main grove]

I would like it if it could be a hip fire god

Like I wish Bren had Hipfire specs

[honest sapphire]

Ehh

It wasn't made for hip fire

[main grove]

Well it’s ADS is painful thanks to its irons

What is it like compared to standard KE7 @prime pine

Stat wise

[honest sapphire]

Maybe it a skill gun

[prime pine]

Its a slow auto ke7 with a bren damage model

[main grove]

Bren damage model is good isn’t it?

[strong parrot]

has more rounds and out damages a bar?

[honest sapphire]

I wish bar had mor ammo in a clip

[brave garnet]

Noooo

[prime pine]

Dunno if you find 8HKO max to kill someone fine

[strong parrot]

bar doesnt have a clip at all

[brave garnet]

Noooooooooo

[prime pine]

If you can make it work thats fine

[brave garnet]

20 round mag

[honest sapphire]

You know what I meant

[main grove]

8HKO is decent enough compared to the rest

[strong parrot]

the fucking thing feels like you are hitting people with a wet noodle lmao

[main grove]

Of automatics

[prime pine]

But as someone who has used the bren before it got nerfed. I have no incentive to play with it Anymore.

[strong parrot]

like im defending on arras BT...and the attackers are at a reasonable distance away because theyre assaulting what im defending, and the fucking gun just tickles them

[prime pine]

Ill have to use the bar more. It feels very clunky.

[strong parrot]

i want to enjoy it so much but holy fuck

[prime pine]

But thats just me realising how good the turner smle is.

[strong parrot]

fast fire rate is god awful at any distance other than 10 feet away lol

and whats the point of putting it on slow fire for long distance...you might as well just use a bren or the mini bren

[prime pine]

You can get kills of course but eh.

I main the bar because it feels like the only good gun in support.

[main grove]

I think people are really fussy with guns in games

Like if it’s not S tier it’s not worth using

[prime pine]

The meta is more niche this time

Its horrible

Before hand. Someone could do just as well with the sten as someone did with the suomi

Now its just.... All over the place.

[main grove]

Before had a recoil based system on how most guns felt different

[honest sapphire]

@main grove ya either there "to op and need to be nerfed" or there "so bad they suck"

[main grove]

Sten and Suomi did the exact same damage

[prime pine]

Yeah. It was their balancing point.

The recoil

[main grove]

But I think they could have changed some guns to be like this new model

Not all

[prime pine]

They could have changed EXTREME ranged damage not just long range.

[main grove]

Like I think stg 1-5 is fine despite everyone hating it

[honest sapphire]

Wait there is a community team

[main grove]

It’s like the assaults type 100

[prime pine]

Why would i use that when the 44 can 4HKO people?

Compared to a 5HKO

[main grove]

Is there really a massive difference between 4 and 5 HKO

I don’t think so

[prime pine]

There is

[main grove]

Whether your gun is 4 and 5 HKO is still the same “hold the trigger for 0.3 seconds and they’re now dead”

[honest sapphire]

Ossen is a "ea community team"

[prime pine]

When the ttk has been changed you really do feel the change

[honest sapphire]

Ya u can really feel the change

[prime pine]

Semi autos especially. The lower the rpm the more apparent the change.

[honest sapphire]

The game feels so much more slow paced I liked the game better before ttk change it mad the game feel so much more fast paced which I loved

[feral glade]

I hate to interupt but I have a question that may be stupid to some.

[honest sapphire]

Ask away

[feral glade]

how do I mark a location for reinforcements (arty) as SL. I tried tapping the Q key as well as opening and pressing the appropriate icon on
the B key to no avail.

thanks

[strong parrot]

hmm so the a2 fire rate was 300-450 or 500-650 assuming thats the different fire speed selectors...why did dice make it 720?

[honest sapphire]

I'm on xbox so I can't help sorry @feral glade

[green cosmos]

I started playing bfv a week ago did they make the TTK slower or faster?

[strong parrot]

slower

[honest sapphire]

Slower @green cosmos

[strong parrot]

more shots to kill someone

[feral glade]

ah

[strong parrot]

which sucks with low mag capacity weapons

[main grove]

I thought the fire rate would have been from 500 to 670 or something

[prime pine]

They sorta "fixed it" but its still awful

[honest sapphire]

Ya it sucks

[strong parrot]

they made the BAR an fg42

but made the damage the shit ttk model lol

[honest sapphire]

@green cosmos are u a Christmas noob

[strong parrot]

wtf

[prime pine]

The bar is essentially a superior fg42

Flat out upgrade

[feral glade]

no been playing bf since the bf42 demo

[green cosmos]

@honest sapphire no I bought ea access like a month ago I just recently downloaded bfv

[honest sapphire]

Ok

[prime pine]

I read that as accidentally installed bfv

[feral glade]

just not as addicted anymore

[honest sapphire]

So do u like bf5

[feral glade]

yep

[main grove]

I really like BFV it’s just a bit wonky with its balance right now

[honest sapphire]

@main grove eame

Same

[green cosmos]

It looks really good and gameplay is nice but lots of bugs for me

[main grove]

The previous balance wasn’t awful but it was boring

Every auto doing the same damage

[honest sapphire]

What do u play with

[feral glade]

I like the revival of the run and gun aspect

[green cosmos]

I’m on pc

[main grove]

And it was lethal at long range

[prime pine]

I didnt mind the previous balance at all. But then again i would have changed some things to make some weapons more useful.

[honest sapphire]

@green cosmos rip u have to deal with hackers console players dont

[prime pine]

Maybe make some of the underdogs a bit more powerful

[strong parrot]

200iq dice makes a faster than possible ROF weapon so they have to make its damage absolutely crap...then adds an alternate fire mode to it thats more like what should be the main damage model of the gun

[main grove]

I think 3btk semis deserved the ROF nerf but not the 3-4

[prime pine]

They said they werent changing the ttk but thats what they flat out did to semis LOL

[feral glade]

i cant go back to the controllers keyboard mouse is so much more intuitive

[green cosmos]

@honest sapphire I’ve rarely seen any my main issue with the game is some of the unlocks still not working after 3 patches

[main grove]

Why are people so bothered about what they said

[prime pine]

The rof was standard in the beta. 257/300 - it was buffed through light bolt but still those were the default values for all the semis in the beta.

[main grove]

Why do people even listen to what they say

[prime pine]

But they had the actual power to back it up

[honest sapphire]

@feral glade true u guys can handle recoil better

[main grove]

The beta had more meaningful skill trees didn’t it?

[feral glade]

last time i used a controller was for doom on PlayStation...hahah

[main grove]

But they weren’t respec able

So they intended on you buying a few models of the same gun

With different trees

[feral glade]

that's how ancient i am

[prime pine]

Oh yeah. You had to buy another gun.

That would have been a very interesting thing in the full product.

[honest sapphire]

Gtg c u guys lster

[main grove]

I wish CC were more involved in getting shit

In the beta the Ruby was bought with CC

[prime pine]

It would have originally yeah but they scrapped half the fucking game.

[green cosmos]

I miss BF4

[feral glade]

its still viable

lots of hard core servers for pc anyway

[green cosmos]

I have a hard time finding servers on PS4

[feral glade]

even bf3 is still alive

[main grove]

As long as Battlefield is chained to this two yearly release schedule it will have awful launches

[feral glade]

true

[main grove]

The reason why the next one is delayed isn’t because EA DICE realised that

It’s because they want to wait for the next consoles

[feral glade]

that freakin sad

[main grove]

They didn’t do it because they wanted BFV to be better

[green cosmos]

What’s the next BF going to be anyway

[main grove]

But they could say that’s the reason for PR clout

Dunno

[feral glade]

but the truth is there are more pc players than consol players

[main grove]

Not true

[feral glade]

i read a statistic on sales a dew months ago\

[main grove]

There are more people on console than on PC battlefield

Probably thanks to hackers and poor optimisation on PC

[feral glade]

hum...they have a reason to promote consol sales but not pcs

[brave garnet]

BF1's launch wasn't that bad

[feral glade]

never bought that one bfhardline kinda ruined my trust

thought it was gonna be a CS type game

[unique thunder]

I want a way to select squads before a match that let's you say whether you intend to push forward and attack the objective or if you only intend to sit in spawn with a sniper trying to go 5-0 in a whole round of breakthrough.

[grand haven]

Well, that was Visceral Games.

Dice just helped with the mp aspect iirc

[feral glade]

as well as need for speed

[unique thunder]

Because if you could group up all those people together, my life would be a lot better

[feral glade]

the driving was good

@unique thunder you can build a custom squad

i love a squad that moves

[grand haven]

I always make my own squad (unless it's not viable) and kick the recons on attack in breakthrough.

[feral glade]

yeah recons sort of ruin my squads for running around

[grand haven]

If they are not playing an aggressive recon, why bother lol (other than an extra Spawn way in the back).

[feral glade]

true combat recons are great players

i admire their skills

[grand haven]

I love going recon with a po8 or carbine.

[feral glade]

but the long range snipers still key me off after all these years

[grand haven]

I feel useful then lol.

[feral glade]

i cant sit still to snipe

[grand haven]

I just suck at it in general lol

[solid carbon]

I always troll friendly camping snipers if i can

[feral glade]

hahah...we all do

[grand haven]

Same, I'll throw crates in front of them or park cars. I'll also push them with the car sometimes.

[feral glade]

love knifing them...they have narrow peripheral vision

hahaha....nice

[solid carbon]

Love destroying the buildings they are in

[feral glade]

actually I miss TKs

not that i do that just it makes for a more skilled game

[solid carbon]

You can still tk but you lose no score

[feral glade]

not on PC

[icy sluice]

You lose score for teamkilling

I think the easiest way teamkill is by debris

[solid carbon]

Or pushing vehicles off cliffs

[feral glade]

TK was the easiest way to remove a hacker

[icy sluice]

Yeah, you lose 100 score for teamkilling I think

[feral glade]

kinda worth it if its nessisary

Im gonna go find someone on PC that can answer my question about reinforcements. You guys have been great I may be back later

[icy sluice]

What was your question?

[woeful merlin]

why is there not a hardcore mode yet?

community games suck as well. you cant change anything or play the pacific maps on anything except team death match.

[solid carbon]

@feral glade whats the question

[vital lily]

Why do I see most people chosing the LVT over the Sherman? Is it better

[prime pine]

I dont think you get kills with debris. I know you can but teamkills are a different story.

[woeful merlin]

to be honest battlefield 1943 release on pc would have been just as good lol

[prime pine]

Lvt is more common due to it being a spawn tank.

It also has the AA guns through a custom spawned one.

[feral glade]

how do I mark a location for reinforcements (arty) as SL. I tried tapping the Q key as well as opening and pressing the appropriate icon on
the B key to no avail.

[vital lily]

Spawn tank?

[prime pine]

Which tear through infantry

[solid carbon]

For reinforcements?

[feral glade]

artillery

[prime pine]

You know how for the U.S side they have their carriers?

[feral glade]

on pc its the B key

[vital lily]

Oh, I see what you mean

Yea

[solid carbon]

Hold B and select artillery with your mouse

[prime pine]

Yeah

[feral glade]

but it doesn't seem to work

[vital lily]

But I also see people choosing it when they could get the Sherman

[solid carbon]

Hmm, it‘s B by default

[feral glade]

do i tap it or hold it?

[gray saffron]

hold it

[feral glade]

ah also do i have to aim at the target area?

to make a marker?

[solid carbon]

Yes, after you get the scope equipped

[feral glade]

im not a recon

[solid carbon]

How are they called... i think it was binacolars

[icy sluice]

You can definitely play the Pacific Maps on community games on conquest @woeful merlin

[feral glade]

yeah the recons use that

i mean as SL

[solid hinge]

squad leader gets binoculars when you pick a reinforcement

[feral glade]

AS MAYBE MEDIC OR SUPPORT

sorry caps

[solid hinge]

you aim through them and it makes a big yellow target

then you activate it

[feral glade]

no lie....hahahah.damn im a dumbass

thanks man that was great help

[woeful merlin]

on PC? @icy sluice

[feral glade]

yeas

there are only two available at this point

what do you guys think of bf5s wake version?

[woeful merlin]

its good

[feral glade]

kinda different yeah?

[solid carbon]

I dont like it

[woeful merlin]

i wish there were more game mode options

[feral glade]

ive been playing bf for years ang get lost on the new wake

[woeful merlin]

smaller teams special things like iron sights/only pistol only/ hardcore/ect.

[earnest wharf]

more game mode is good if there is enough player base to support it

otherwise for the time being, having a more concentrated player base is probably better for match making and so on

hopefully community games can improve to the point that it allows people to make the game mode they want... who knows when though

[feral glade]

you probably need to clan up and play skims for custom games i think

skrims*

or a mod like project reality

those wereww the days

you guys ever jump in a PR game?

believe it or not that mod is still active

[gray verge]

PR?

[feral glade]

oroject reality for bf2

project*

[gray verge]

Man, I never played that.

[woeful merlin]

never heard of it

[gray verge]

I have been playin BF since 1942

[woeful merlin]

ill look it up though

[feral glade]

its was fantastic man

you should if you like team play

[gray verge]

There was a mod for 1942 that was good.

[feral glade]

they have over twenty skins

cesert combat

[gray verge]

Yes, that was it.

[feral glade]

desert combat

[woeful merlin]

nobody reallyt plays battlefield already. i would play it more if it had the options i want. the custom games setup is terrible

[feral glade]

man i loved that sycker

[gray verge]

I miss the days of our own servers to run.

I used to play only Hardcore.

[feral glade]

and mods too

yeah i still do for bf4

[gray verge]

I was not a big fan of BF1

[feral glade]

there's several available

but to be honest im digging the return of the crosshairs on bf5

i love to run and gun

i hated using the sights only

[gray verge]

I am used to BFV now.

[feral glade]

i never played bf1 only bf game i refused to play

[shy badger]

why

[gray verge]

I logged about 200 hours on it then stopped playing taht game.

[feral glade]

yeah i like bf5 but still jump into a bf4 and bf3 server every now and then

why bf fhardline was a ripoff

[gray verge]

We have guys that still jump in BF1 and BF4

I played a few hours on Hardline.

[slate plank]

Is there any gun for the medic class that is as good as the stg?

[feral glade]

yeah me too a few

i use the MAB but its been nefed to hell

nerfed*

[gray verge]

I just looked. I played 17 hours of hardline

[feral glade]

probably the same hours as me until i got tired of the driving

[gray verge]

It was boring

[feral glade]

made me want to play need for speed...hahaha

yea plus the dialog was juvinile

your ass is grass....haHAHAH

reminded me of high school

[gray verge]

@slate plank I use the Type-100, but I hear the MAB is fine too.

I used to use all the weapons, but this latest patch has me using fewer.

[feral glade]

takes a full clip to put someone down now

at any distance that is

but they made it more accurate at med range

yeah i like the original weapons better than the awarded ones

mid*

same for bf4 i still use the PP2000 sm

[gray verge]

I would have to fire up BF4 to see what I was even using back then.

[feral glade]

hahaha...indeed

[gray verge]

I have not played BF4 since October 2016, but did have 997 hours in that game.

[feral glade]

damn i jump in a bf4 game at least once a month

as well as bf3

[deep forge]

Omg I hate when you yell for help when your downed it gets irritating and it’s already old

[gray verge]

We have a BF4 TeamSpeak channel on our server.

See people in there all the time.

[feral glade]

that is very true

[deep forge]

Sanitater

[feral glade]

sally tater yeah

[deep forge]

Hilf mir

[feral glade]

[vital lily]

tfw medic runs past you with no danger around

[viscid crater]

Sanitayer is mispronounced

?

Sanitater*

I'm learning german

[feral glade]

well the way they pronounce it in game it is

[deep forge]

Why can’t your teammates help you when your down all it takes is a pat in the back no cap

[feral glade]

hell i learned a bit of Arabic back ion bf2

[vital lily]

i love aerodrmoe

[deep forge]

And if your down as a medic why can’t you just put a morphine shot on your self

[feral glade]

best map in game yeah

probably cause you incapacited

incompassitated?

[deep forge]

But your up in like 2 seconds

[feral glade]

well then you need to play project reality.....you bleed to death without meds

[deep forge]

fax

[feral glade]

you get a psycodlic view when dying

psychedelic*

everything spinning around all kalidescope like

thatsa bf2 mod

i sound like a fanboy but that's a great mod too bad the graphics are dated

i hear someone is modding bf3 reality

[gray saffron]

sounds unlikely. frostbite engine (what bf3 is made on) isn't really known for being moddable 😦

[formal valve]

[vital lily]

SUP ALFIE

[solid hinge]

Doing good bro

[vital lily]

Same here

[solid hinge]

Nice

[vital lily]

I swear everytime I shoot at somebody their teammates just appear beside me

[feral glade]

every time i kill someone even when I spy around i seem to get killed straight away

[vital lily]

Can you blow up the crocodile's fuel

what happens if you do

[feral glade]

makes me think that the other guys are better squaded up than me

that large tank at the rear?

[vital lily]

yea

[feral glade]

dunno i would thik so but afterall this bf...sigh

[prime pine]

The tank will continue to function like normal

[strong parrot]

i think its just a damageable part of the tank?

[prime pine]

No it is not

It does not register as a part of the vehicle. Only for cosmetic purposes.

[strong parrot]

oh

[prime pine]

In a sense. It protects its engine.

[strong parrot]

cant even damage it niceee

[prime pine]

It can blow up. Im not sure how much armour ithas though.

I want to test it out

[feral glade]

again gotta go to reality mod for that

you can stop a tank if you hit the treads

[scenic sandal]

How do you get gas mask in bf1 I'm a nooob sorry

[feral glade]

i believe you have to buy it with real money

[summer lily]

lol

[scenic sandal]

O

[prime pine]

Oh

[scenic sandal]

That's kinda dumb

[prime pine]

No they're fucking with you

[scenic sandal]

How do you get it

[coral fiber]

Looking at AKA ART's youtube poll for the best battlefield of the decade
Bfv has more votes that BC2 and bf3

[desert dune]

Depends what platform you’re playing

[coral fiber]

[prime pine]

In bf1, you can equip it by pressing up on the d pad.

[scenic sandal]

Ps4

[prime pine]

On console

[scenic sandal]

Oh ok

[vital lily]

How do people get bombers so quick

Because surely if you just spam it

[prime pine]

Note. You cannot aim down sights.

[scenic sandal]

Because someone told me you have to buy it or somat

[vital lily]

Thats gonna put them in the first slot

Which is a fighter

[prime pine]

People are just quick

[scenic sandal]

OK thanks!

[vital lily]

They literally did it in under a second tho

Like how

[solid hinge]

Just spamming

[vital lily]

But

wouldnt that put you in a fighter

they got in a bomber

[solid hinge]

Once u are on the plane selection

[prime pine]

Sometimes it remembers

[solid hinge]

They cant get ur plane

[coral fiber]

I was literally shitting on the american team on wake yesterday and didn't get any hate messages
Like bruh y'all didn't get past the first sector and team balanced was fucked for us but we still won

[prime pine]

Dude

Pilot

[coral fiber]

Tanks don't exist when im in the air

Yes?

[prime pine]

I got the best bunch of games yesterday

[coral fiber]

Like high kill games?

[prime pine]

Yes but also they were close

You could feel the determination from everyone

[coral fiber]

Lol

I like it when the entire enemy team tries to kill me

[prime pine]

I ended it all yesterday by going 70+ on wake island with bomber zero and nabbing a good 36 K points.

[vital lily]

This really annoys me

shitty pilots yoinking all the planes

who die in 30 secnods

[coral fiber]

Oof nice

I hate that too

[prime pine]

https://twitter.com/Waygyanba/status/1210786804086894594?s=19 this is how iwo jima ended

▶ Play video

Twitter

At least they dont have the plane for the rest of the game!

[coral fiber]

Especially on wake island defense because that's the only vehicles we got

[prime pine]

I made rage quit when i destroyed their corsair

Cause they were just booby trapping the airfield with mines

[coral fiber]

Oh yea
I changed my mind about the turner

It's actually decently good

[prime pine]

I somehow got through, out turned them and showed them who's boss.

Its actually good

The smle

Just use that

For assault for a semi

[solid carbon]

try the a/mg 42 or however its called

No upwards recoil, feelsgoodman

[prime pine]

Big mag smle

Bayonet charge garand also feels good

[coral fiber]

Meh

[solid carbon]

bf1 smle 💪😤 bfv smle 🤡

[coral fiber]

The type 97 MG is... Ok
Not shitty but not great

[solid carbon]

Feels like the ke7 when it had zero recoil with 3x

[vital lily]

meningschoss nerf?

[solid carbon]

Minengeschoss?

[vital lily]

bf 109 explosive bullets

[solid carbon]

Not nerfed afaik

[vital lily]

TTK seems way slower than i've seen in videos

huh

[prime pine]

It was a 3-4HKO at the start now its a 9HKO

[vital lily]

Oh my

why do people camp aa spawn

[feral glade]

point whoring?

[vital lily]

and people who crash/jump out when theyre nearly dead

[feral glade]

no fear of death?

[solid carbon]

When you jump out above a flag you can still fight

[vital lily]

No i mean like

jump out

into out of bounds

or

purpousefully crash

[feral glade]

noobery?

im waiting for the kamakasis when the game gets old...haha

or massive kniving

[solid carbon]

I only jump out when im getting shot down by an toxic pilot

[feral glade]

i admire you guys...i fly like a rock

[honest sapphire]

Seems reasonable

@feral glade same

[feral glade]

back in the bf42 demo i saw a guy fly under a small bride and asked him how long it took to get that good...he said over a thousand hours of flight sims...i then decided to only tank and ground pound

the tanks were a lot easier back then though

just a slight parabellum shot that reminded me of Q3 rockets

[prime pine]

I only have 200 hours worth of experience

Of flying

Haha

I still got a lot to learn

[honest sapphire]

Haha I have 64 hours of gameplay in all

[feral glade]

the helli's on bf3/4 are even harder to master

[prime pine]

1241 hours here!

[feral glade]

no lie optional?

[honest sapphire]

I'm crying internally

[feral glade]

where the heck you been?

[honest sapphire]

@feral glade no lie

[feral glade]

the sims?

[honest sapphire]

@feral glade how long ago was this

[feral glade]

@honest sapphire do you play on PC SOMETIMES?

[honest sapphire]

[honest sapphire]

Clash of clans the clan Hansen clan

[feral glade]

oh okay

are they compeditive?

[honest sapphire]

Ya

They still platly

[feral glade]

nothing like clan vs clan scrims man

[honest sapphire]

Play optionalgunner is in it

It might be full

[feral glade]

im on PC

anyway don't hesitate to ask for help in game there are a lot of generous and mature players around

64 hours man that's precious...lol...i logged that many hours the first week of the bf42 demo

actually probably the first three days...it was like a rock festival

[solid hinge]

HELP

[feral glade]

coming from CS , q3 and mohaa bf was a treeip at 64 players

trip*

[solid hinge]

I have been killed by fingergun

[feral glade]

HUH? like a bird finger?

[solid hinge]

Yes

[feral glade]

well yeah that's a direct insult now isn't it?

[slate plank]

Al sundan pi55es me off

[feral glade]

hows that?

great map

[slate plank]

Sniper fest

[solid hinge]

They also burn me

[feral glade]

oh hell yeah man that hard to avoid...got to get a bit more hard nosed and deal with it though

[solid hinge]

I just

[feral glade]

small maps kinda conter that crap

counter(

[slate plank]

And the passive spotting dont help eithet

[solid hinge]

I still confused why AT rifle can't break enemy tracks.

I use Boy with Tiger once.

Nothing happened to tracks.

Reality 11/10

[feral glade]

yep again project realty for a more realistic experience...i hate being a freakin fanboy....hahaha

but that shit is so much more immersive. But dated unfortunately

[icy sluice]

There's so much post processing in that mod tho

[slate plank]

This stupid as f**k spotting. One guy sees me and he spots me for the rest of the goddamn team. Smoke doesnt help at all despite it being a tool that can be used to prevent spotting. I so wanna punch the developers in their faces and tell them "listen up, grow a pair and give what the community wants not what they didnt ask for"

[feral glade]

true @icy sluice

[slate plank]

I dont understand why they thought it was a good idea honestly

[verbal falcon]

ayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

wasuuuu

[feral glade]

but the spotting doesn't follow you around in bf5

with that annoying red triangle

[solid hinge]

i just won with 2 tickets on battlefield XD

[feral glade]

tight man...wish i was in that game

what map?

areas?

or however you spell it

seems like a super balanced map

[sterile galleon]

Bf1 rocks

🙂

[main grove]

Fucking r/BattlefieldV is still a state

[upper vault]

State?

[main grove]

A mess

[solid hinge]

Went back to bf1 over past week... Feels like an upgrade

[prime pine]

It will stay a mess till the changes revert

[main grove]

Full of people who only know how to whinge and complain and make le funny 5.2.2 bad 5.0 good memes

[solid hinge]

They have a point.... I've also given up on the game until the revert or ahead balance it someway

[main grove]

Some guy posted a clip of him missing about 70% of his shots with the M1 carbine and saying look at this

[raw orbit]

Lul

[silver tide]

Finally unmuted

[solid hinge]

But seriously though..using mondragon in bf1's inferior gunplay is more Satisfying now than using the garand in bf5 superior gunplay

[upper vault]

Yeah, that subreddit is a mess tbh

They’re still complaining on ww2 uniforms

Lmao.

[silver tide]

Why not? The uniforms are trash

[upper vault]

Cause there are more important stuff to worry about in the game

[brave cypress]

Can you get Operations Battlepacks in BF1 anymore?

[earnest wharf]

Well to be fair, they can complain about whatever they want to complain about

I don't think they are going to get what they want though with the cosmetics

Not like they are going to take back cosmetics that are already released

And actually the crazier the cosmetic is, the better they sell

Most people buy cosmetics to look unique and not to look like a random npc in single player

What those people want is really not to buy authentic uniforms for themselves but rather want their fellow players to wear authentic uniform

And that's just not going to happen

Unless bf gives an option to make all cosmetics default on an end user side but I highly doubt they are going to do that

People who buy cosmetics want people to look at it so if they enable that, there will be a decrease in demand for them

[upper vault]

Yeah they are not going to revert the customizations,

[solid hinge]

tfw elites

[hollow bane]

Man I havent touched Battlefield since the beginning of this month

[vital lily]

Best medic guns?

I'm feeling the type 100 but idk

[strong parrot]

sumoi seems to shred up close from that fire rate

dunno how the zk fares after the ttk update

[tropic sorrel]

Anyone else having a crash issue where the game loads and has the little logo in the top right and then just crashes with no error message?

Because this is getting extremely frustrating. I've tried repairing the game and all sorts of stuff I found on reddit.

[solid hinge]

MP40 is still pretty good

[solid carbon]

@tropic sorrel PC?

If yes, try cleaning your origin cache

[gray glade]

i like the mp40 still too

I think the type 100 is better overall, but still, the mp40 isn't bad

[pallid gate]

good day

[fluid tusk]

playstation having connection issues?

[strong parrot]

lmao this fucking lmg damage...

[solid hinge]

So

I played BF5 again...

Guys

And now I see why I left.

Is the battlefield 1 premium pass a one time purchase?

[strong parrot]

if you buy prem...you have everything unlocked

[solid hinge]

So it's a one time purchase correct?

[echo turtle]

Yes

[solid hinge]

Ok, thanks

[fluid tusk]

having issues connecting to Playstation

[raven dirge]

Is it worth getting back into bfv

[lone basalt]

no

[raven dirge]

Why not

The island map seems cool

[lone basalt]

overall it isnt really fun for me, especially wake island with the atrocious cover and elevations

[raven dirge]

Is bf1 good

[fluid tusk]

@lone basalt Wake Island is conquest assault. its supposed to be that way

[lone basalt]

I only played it for a couple hours and realized that i was only playing just because i think i should

[fluid tusk]

do you even Battlefield?

it plays like the Battlefield Vietnam version

[lone basalt]

I know how to play battlefield

I just dont like wake island even though its beautiful

[raven dirge]

Is bf1 better

[lone basalt]

i prefer iwo jima

[fluid tusk]

@raven dirge its casual field

[lone basalt]

Nah bfv > bf1 with gameplay and all

[raven dirge]

So battlefield just isn't that good rn

[fluid tusk]

anyway as I was saying, Wake Island is a tense attack and defense map

[lone basalt]

bf4 and bf3 have aged quite well

[fluid tusk]

eww BF3 & 4

[solid hinge]

.

[fluid tusk]

@raven dirge get Battlefield Vietnam (2004)

100% worth it

[lone basalt]

Yeah Wake Island is very intense, but the main reason why i dont play it is bec i die a lot in wake island lol

the maps and weather are beautiful

[solid hinge]

Is it because it’s too open?

[raven dirge]

I already own bfv and bf1 and I don't really want to buy a game that's 15 years old I'll just stick with MW

[lone basalt]

But it isnt something id lose sleep over

[raw orbit]

I preferred bf5 because the gunplay but now uhhh at least it doesn't have the comeback tanks or whatever?

[fluid tusk]

dying is part of the battlefield experience. this aint Call of Duty. you shouldnt worry about K/D or any of that bullshi

[lone basalt]

i dont

I just die at wake island more than usual

[fluid tusk]

your fighting a war, dying is part of war

[lone basalt]

too open for me tbh

[raw orbit]

People here pretending like every time you die you aren't spending a ticket

[strong parrot]

holy fuck finally got lvl 4 on this lmg maybe it wont be absolute shit with reloads

[raw orbit]

Pog

[lone basalt]

use the sturmgewehr

lol

the only gun you should use

[strong parrot]

aS SupPoRt?!

[raw orbit]

I don't like the stg44 idk why

[solid hinge]

maybe if you're a masochist

[raw orbit]

Or any assault guns

[lone basalt]

yeah ww2 ars felt like crap

[solid hinge]

STG44’s fire rate feels slow to me. But that’s just my opinion I guess.

[lone basalt]

how far does the flamethrower hit?

[fluid tusk]

just want to say that the people who only care about weapon stats are ruining the battlefield experience

[lone basalt]

so far ive only used it effectively in trenches like in real ww2

And bunkers

[fluid tusk]

back in the days of old, stats didnt matter

[solid hinge]

Like 30 to 35 studs.

[fluid tusk]

you just followed orders and shot people

captured objectives

didnt matter what gun you used

they all kill the same

[lone basalt]

but at different times

[fluid tusk]

who cares about timing tho, just shoot

this aint an arena shooter

[lone basalt]

cant kill if you die first

[solid hinge]

Well I wasn’t around to play the old Battlefield games so I will just believe whatever you say.

[lone basalt]

doesnt battlefield gunplay revolve around ttk

[fluid tusk]

people are bringing this whole Arena Shooter mindset to Battlefield

[lone basalt]

Time to kill

point and click

[fluid tusk]

all that shit matters in competitive arena games like COD

not a war game

[raw orbit]

Yea but anyone who isnt thinking the mab is dummy good is wrong

[solid hinge]

battlefield barely counts as a war game with how casual it is

[fluid tusk]

blame the younger players who think everything revolves around Bad Company gameplay

[solid hinge]

which is why I like it

[strong parrot]

did you hear hell let loose will kill bfv though

[lone basalt]

if you want a real war game go play insurgency or smth

[strong parrot]

tru story

[lone basalt]

nah

hell let loose is like ro2

[fluid tusk]

Insurgency is a squad based tactical shooter

[lone basalt]

It has its own niche

[solid hinge]

CASUAL HA

[fluid tusk]

BATTLEFIELD USED TO BE NICHE

[strong parrot]

apparently i need to add /s to things

[lone basalt]

I still boot up Red Orchestra from time to time

[strong parrot]

[solid hinge]

oh boy time to crawl through bushes for 5 minutes and then get killed by a pixel 200 metres away

[upper halo]

rip red orchestra

[solid hinge]

I have like 20 tryhards in my games

in one hit

[worn verge]

Stats don't always tell a person's real skill level at the game. K/d hardly matters

[solid hinge]

It’s not funny anymore

[raw orbit]

Bridges

[strong parrot]

aCcUrAtE TtK ThoUgH

[upper halo]

I used to play RO2 pre-RS so much

[lone basalt]

ikr

[solid hinge]

stats are usually an effective way of at least determining basic skill level

[fluid tusk]

i never touched those shitty milsim games

[lone basalt]

you stand up and die in 3 secs

[fluid tusk]

i was a Battlefield kid

[lone basalt]

thats wake island

[raw orbit]

Ro3 when I've waited enough now

[fluid tusk]

Battlefield 1942 and Battlefield Vietnam

[worn verge]

Some days I just want to goof off and put in the game that affects my stats

[fluid tusk]

i didnt even get a steam account til about 2010

[upper halo]

RO is dead as a franchise

[lone basalt]

bruh they stopped development for Rising Storm 2 why do you think ro3 will happen

[solid hinge]

Wait, what is RO?

[raw orbit]

Rising storm 2 has been out for years

[lone basalt]

the best ww2 realistic franchise

[upper halo]

yeah but it's over now

[fluid tusk]

then go stick with it

[solid hinge]

RO of course

[upper halo]

it's dead l2read

[fluid tusk]

Battlefield was never about realism

[lone basalt]

it never was nobody said it was

[fluid tusk]

it was about total war

[lone basalt]

What are you on about

[fluid tusk]

like the older Battlefield games used to have objectives to do during the match

[lone basalt]

if you want a real war game go to the rising storm franchise or insurgency

[fluid tusk]

I wish they brought that back

[upper halo]

muh old bf

[lone basalt]

Battlefield is just a large scale shooter

Thats all it is

[upper halo]

go play then them

them then*

[fluid tusk]

Insurgency isnt a war game

[lone basalt]

it is tho?

[fluid tusk]

its a squad based tactical shooter

like Siege

I play it, I know

[lone basalt]

bruh

what

[fluid tusk]

you heard me

my young summer child

[lone basalt]

its not

[fluid tusk]

it is

[lone basalt]

i mean it is a squad based tactical shooter

[worn verge]

I like statistics but I would never play Battlefield just for stats. I do like to look at my melee kills though

[lone basalt]

but also a war game

[fluid tusk]

exactly my point

its a squad based tactical shooter

[lone basalt]

its not like siege

Only the comp mode is like siege

[fluid tusk]

its no different than siege.

[lone basalt]

[fluid tusk]

same type of small maps

you attack/defend

[lone basalt]

small

ok

[worn verge]

Private servers can be setup in a way for clans to play competitive against each other

[fluid tusk]

small in the sense that there are borders trapping people in to a linear experience

[worn verge]

At least on older battlefield games

[fluid tusk]

unlike the battlefield games of old

[crude berry]

Yo, does anyone own a PS3?

[lone basalt]

battlefield what

[fluid tusk]

@worn verge KOMMANDO DOSENBIER CLAN 2005 - 2008!

I miss the Kodo clan

[lone basalt]

battlefield 2 and on have been practically the same

[fluid tusk]

best experience of my teenage life

[crude berry]

I need someone to pair up with so I can get all the weapons from the CO-OP for BF3.

[fluid tusk]

@lone basalt play the games before Battlefield 2

[lone basalt]

stop living in the past, its not healthy.

[fluid tusk]

@crude berry I might do it

[crude berry]

@fluid tusk do you own a PS3?

[worn verge]

I try not to worry about Nerfs and Buffs or anything going on with weapons in the core game mode. When we can make a hardcore mode or custom server all that stuff kind of irrelevant

[fluid tusk]

@lone basalt when you get older, you will understand

[solid hinge]

siege is a hide and seek simulator

[fluid tusk]

@crude berry yep

[lone basalt]

If it could work today, it would but sadly it hasnt aged well.

stop living in the past bro

[fluid tusk]

again, when you get older, you will understand

wait til you hit close to 30

[brave coral]

Not sure about this Type 97

[lone basalt]

ill speedrun irl

[brave coral]

Mainly the reload

[lone basalt]

watch me

[brave coral]

There’s no reason for it to be that long

It’s not even that great a gun

[lone basalt]

use the force yoda

[solid hinge]

Everyone's been shitting on its reload

[lone basalt]

Also tommy gun is max rank for medic and that fuckin sucks

[brave coral]

Max class rank isn’t that hard to get tbh

[lone basalt]

It is when you cant play everyday

[brave coral]

I don’t either

[lone basalt]

Especially when origin does that weird fuckin "Verifying files" bullshit

it only does it with battlefield v

[brave coral]

That said I got max class rank almost a year ago lmao

So I’m probably not the best judge

[upper halo]

i had that verifying shit yesterday with bf1

longest 30m ever

[lone basalt]

Id rather just uninstall then download again tbh

its faster

i can download the game at 50mbps but cant verify it at the same speed

[worn verge]

Man I can't wait to see if all the older clans resurrect on bf5 when we get more custom options

[lone basalt]

Why does it have to be Origin, why cant we have it on Steam like every other decent game.

[upper halo]

same reason why jay-z and apple made their own streaming service

[worn verge]

I feel bad for the Milsim community.. They like 1 BTK

[strong parrot]

@brave coral i see youre a man of culture as well pissed off with the stupid reload speed

[solid hinge]

How long is it

[strong parrot]

thats a rather personal question isnt it

[worn verge]

Heheh

It's in his stats 😜

[solid hinge]

[worn verge]

Has there been anymore talk of the capture the flag game mode? I wonder if we will get defuse also

[strong parrot]

lul imagine having the suicide plunger as an emote before its in the game

oh dice and your bugs

[autumn monolith]

it better be for support

[strong parrot]

...its anti tank

why would it be support

clearly assault needs it

[autumn monolith]

the support has at grenade pistols

and at mines

[solid hinge]

it's for both of them

🥴

imo should have been assault and recon

weird choice to have on support

id also have accepted it on medic

[strong parrot]

recon sounds good more of them should suicide...with the gadget...

[worn verge]

Recon could use sticky Dynamite

[solid hinge]

spawn beacon your way behind a tank then spawn with plunger and boys

[shy badger]

Yea dynamite on recon would be nice

[solid hinge]

Recon with trench carbine flares and dynamite sounds genuinely OP to me

[worn verge]

I don't get why they don't give it to him

[autumn monolith]

how about smoke grenades on all classes dice, yeah?

[shy badger]

I liked how both the support and recon had c4s in bf4 ^^

[dire leaf]

Anyone down for bf4 on 360?

[worn verge]

I play Recon Class A lot more now that it has the trench carbine

[solid hinge]

spawn beacon and flares are probably the best two gadgets in the game

[autumn monolith]

not so much flares now they keep getting shot down

[dire leaf]

@solid hinge @worn verge either of you fellas?

[solid hinge]

Still takes em a moment to get shot down and you get an image of how many targets there are

[autumn monolith]

bf1 flares were better since u didnt have to shoot them in the air

[brave coral]

People also don’t shoot them all the time

[solid hinge]

Bf1 flares were borderline broken

[viscid crater]

I just joined a game and immediately it displayed the defeat screen lmao

[brave coral]

I’m not convinced like 90% of players even know you can shoot them down

[solid hinge]

No means of counter play against them just pray no one flares

[autumn monolith]

casual

[viscid crater]

You can shoot the flares down

In bfv

[worn verge]

Flairs are pretty cheese. Seems better since the last update. Some matches you would join, and the sky would be full of them

[viscid crater]

Oh you guys already said that

[strong parrot]

shoot it at the ground...full coverage

[autumn monolith]

maxiq is going to hit rank 500 first

[shy badger]

what's his rank

[worn verge]

My text-to-speech sucks. Google has bugs too 😔

[autumn monolith]

like 325

its 328

[worn verge]

Anyone know what's up with emblems? Custom platoon emblems don't seem to show up on the Soldiers uniform or vehicles

[echo turtle]

In bfv?

They dropped custom emblems entirely

We get those awesome premade ones

[formal valve]

“Awesome”

[worn verge]

I don't really notice the awesome ones either

[echo turtle]

It's as if I was

[worn verge]

Damm that's a shame I liked the patches

[echo turtle]

Huh, forgot what I was doing there

[slate plank]

I am level 18 for my Medic class and still havent unlocked the Combat medic role. Dafuq??

[viscid crater]

Is the panzerfaust better to use than the piat

[gray glade]

no

[viscid crater]

The piat has like no velocity

[worn verge]

Piat is better at knocking down structures

[gray glade]

the piat does more damage, but if you are aiming at a tank at longer ranges, like panzerstorm then panzerfaust is easier to use

[viscid crater]

It's literally a shirt cannon

[gray glade]

if you can learn lobbing your shots piat is better, but of course, even I use the panzerfaust on some maps, like where tanks are far away

[worn verge]

Vehicle heavy maps I tend to run the panzer, and piat on Infantry maps. For me

[raw orbit]

Sniping using the marker on the map

U know it took me so long to realise you have to stop moving to make the marker show up

I always thought it was just buggy

[gray glade]

a bug in a battlefield game?

you must be joking 🙂

[brave coral]

This Type 97 is as they say

One heck of a doohickey

I like it

My main issue with it is the reload

It’s nowhere near powerful enough to justify it

But apart from that, pretty nice imo

[worn verge]

I wish there was a way to disable the mini map locally. You can only change the transparency of what the map displays

[solid hinge]

Panzerfaust solely has better velocity going for it

Piat is better in every single other way

[half wolf]

The Juggernaut challenge for TOW (capture 12 objectives) doesn't update.

[worn verge]

I didn't realize the piat did more damage

[solid hinge]

Logically it shouldnt

yet..

[gray glade]

if the panzerfaust did more damage there would be no reason to use the piat

[worn verge]

My crosshairs are disabled. The panzer is easier for me to hit targets at range.. The piat I need a minute line the shot.. The ADS for both takes practice to get used to it

[solid hinge]

Piat has splash, faster reloads, actually damages buildings and fortifications, has bootleg mortar function

piat currently chunks both infantry and vehicles

and fortifications

[gray glade]

the panzerfaust was actually really good IRL afaik, like it would one-shot shermans from the side in close range and stuff

not sure how good the piat was tho

[raw orbit]

I assumed the panzerfaust had better direct damage but less splash range until I found out it's actually just bad lul

[solid hinge]

Logically it makes sense for the panzerfaust to have worse splash and better direct damage

[gray glade]

yeah it really should do more damage than the piat, realistically, but this is battlefield 😄

[solid hinge]

Instead piat just does everything

[worn verge]

Not sure if I got used to the panzer, but it's always been my option for vehicles.

[raw orbit]

Yea it's dumb

[solid hinge]

panzerfaust shaped charge is way bigger than piat rounds

plus piat shoots HE and faust is designed for tank busting

it doesnt make sense

[raw orbit]

Yeah makes more sense to use the piat for anti infantry but dice doesn't know sense lul

[worn verge]

Do you know how much damage the boom broom will do?

[raw orbit]

Who knows damage will probably be bugged

[worn verge]

Happy thoughts my dude 😞

[raw orbit]

:)

[solid hinge]

From the gif they showed us originally it looked like about 70 to the rear of a medium tank

AT nade to launcher to broom boom should kill anything I imagine

[worn verge]

Nice

[raw orbit]

Are they separate slots? What?

[solid hinge]

Broom boom is in the secondary gadget slot

[earnest wharf]

Boom broom's damage was not set

That damage shown was just a concept

[solid hinge]

I can't imagine they'd make it under 50 to the rear of a tank unless they want it to be shit

then again, considering the current 8 damage piats

[gray glade]

what class will get the plunger?

support?

or assault maybe

[earnest wharf]

I think both

[solid hinge]

They mentioned both before

[earnest wharf]

You all are exaggerating about the low damage piats

Lol

[raw orbit]

Yea

It does 9 damage

[solid hinge]

[earnest wharf]

45 damage to the butt

[solid hinge]

Decent tankers wont let you get their butt if they're being vaguely careful

[tidal pelican]

i can get your butt

[raw orbit]

Petition to Delete tank 3rd person view

[solid hinge]

[worn verge]

The tank game play has been a lot better. People are using Vehicles more aggressively now. Hope this gadget doesn't make them sit at base and snipe

[remote tapir]

with the BAR is the ammo upgrade to 40 or higher

[raw orbit]

No

Take your 20 ammo and enjoy it

[tidal pelican]

when are we getting a new bf?

[worn verge]

All 3rd person view should be disabled..

[strong parrot]

hey guys remember that time bfv came out and the panzerfaust destroyed buildings?

[earnest wharf]

Worst possible damage to a medium tank with a piat is 15 damage

[raw orbit]

Plane 3rd person carries me lul

[solid hinge]

the poor panzerfaust

When I was in a tiger I can confirm I was getting 8 damage hits done to me

[strong parrot]

i remember post nerf of that i shoot a house "oh wtf i missed the weak spot??" shoots again in the perfect spot "oh no its just nerfed against structures now cool"

[earnest wharf]

If you do a 360 no scope jumping shot with a piat to a tank, you can most likely do 22 damage

[solid hinge]

Nothing did over 15 damage a hit other than dynamite to the rear and an archer

[earnest wharf]

Yes rear of Archer is heavily armored

[solid hinge]

No I mean to my tiger

archer did 17 damage

super stronk

[earnest wharf]

Huh?

[raw orbit]

I think tankers don't realise they changed the damage model lul I just face them front on and they go all and face me sideways and it's just free kills

[earnest wharf]

Actually you want to angle still

[solid hinge]

I was crusing a tiger around mercury and nothing did over 15 damage other than dynamite and an enemy archer, the enemy archer did 17 damage a shot

[earnest wharf]

You don't want to face people straight on

[raw orbit]

I go like

10 degrees or something

[earnest wharf]

Yea 10 is all you need now

[brave coral]

Unrelated but damn, the Selbstlader 1916 is beefy

[earnest wharf]

3 hit

[solid hinge]

I still like it!

[brave coral]

And surprisingly spammable

[earnest wharf]

Because it has always been spammable

Lol

[topaz dome]

piat does more damage than panzerfaust to the tank butt?

[brave coral]

Even though it’s only 225 rpm

[earnest wharf]

Piat does a lot more damage than pf in general

In all cases

[solid hinge]

poor panzerfaust

[earnest wharf]

It has always been like that

It was not a 5.2 change

[topaz dome]

time to swap my loadout then

[earnest wharf]

if you want to read about the 5.2 tank changes, here
https://www.reddit.com/r/BattlefieldV/comments/e2whwb/tank_overhaul_complete_breakdown_update_52/

you get some example of how much damage AT gadgets deal

[worn verge]

At launch I tried the tanks and hated them. I've only played Infantry since. Few weeks ago I tried the tanks again. Love using them now.

[solid hinge]

They feel a lot stronger now

well.. not light tank level of dominance back at the start

[worn verge]

I like the Panzer 38T on squad conquest
