Fastest straight pull with sweet spot potential and the ability to swap to a poor man's 1906

midnight nimbus
#

too bad Gen Liu had shit variants

solid hinge
#

Still gud either way

prime pine
#

Marksman liu would have been sweet

compact oxide
#

The sights were the worst parts of the Liu imo

knotty prairie
#

the trench carbine for the assault

midnight nimbus
#

it was cool for the sniper memes

knotty prairie
#

was op

midnight nimbus
#

but nothing else

compact oxide
#

I enjoyed the factory overall

midnight nimbus
#

fuck i need to find the clip

#

where i got like a 100m Trench Carbine kill in BF1

solid hinge
#

That’s why you use buckhorn sights

midnight nimbus
#

Zeebrugee TDM

knotty prairie
#

no recoil carbine

solid hinge
compact oxide
#

Buckthorn is okay I guess but takes up too much sight picture imo

stoic breach
#

Thats great

knotty prairie
#

model 10a hunter made me feel like i was actually using a shotgun

#

compared to bfv

compact oxide
#

Irons on the 1906 factory were my absolute fav in the game

#

You should never have a shotgun in bf WeSmart

solid hinge
#

Shotguns in bf1

midnight nimbus
stoic breach
#

Yeah makes me wish for good sniping in BF

midnight nimbus
#

shotguns in BF1 sucked

compact oxide
#

Lebel WearyOk

knotty prairie
#

sniping mechanics in bf1 are good

stoic breach
#

Sniping in MW is fun, but I still like sweetspots alot more

midnight nimbus
#

people failing to remember how hideously good BF3/4 shotguns were

stoic breach
#

I think a combination of sweetspot and BFGs would be great for BF going forward

#

Personally

knotty prairie
#

farquhar hill

compact oxide
#

BFGs? Like from DOOM?

stoic breach
#

Like one shot snipers

solid hinge
#

Sniping in mw can be either rewarding or frustrating

stoic breach
#

Without sweetspot

solid hinge
#

For example

#

what was your favorite map in bf1?

compact oxide
#

Achi Baba

#

No contest

knotty prairie
#

nice

solid hinge
#

I can’t remember any of the maps

knotty prairie
#

i liked Argonne forest

solid hinge
#

Argonne with a shotgun

#

😳

compact oxide
#

I love the look of achi and the flow

knotty prairie
#

because i could flank and spam

#

with hellrigel

compact oxide
#

Sooo many flanks in achi

solid hinge
#

Suez with a squad working together was my favourite moment in bf1

compact oxide
#

So many places the 1906 would work with hit and run

knotty prairie
#

scouts camping in the houses

compact oxide
knotty prairie
#

then getting destroyed by the armored train

compact oxide
#

Suez was one of the worst maps imo

solid hinge
#

Still alright though

compact oxide
#

Ehh

#

I guess it wasn't giants or galacia

solid hinge
#

Neville nights was good

knotty prairie
#

sinai desert with the motorbike

knotty prairie
#

hellrigel spam

midnight nimbus
#

most of the maps were rly good in TDM / DOM

#

I could play Suez and Giants Shadow DOM forever

knotty prairie
#

i only played conquest

midnight nimbus
#

most maps were solid in Frontlines too

solid hinge
#

Giants shadow in the blimp

#

That was good especially if you were at the top

midnight nimbus
#

BF1 64p was bottom tier terrible

knotty prairie
midnight nimbus
#

depending on the map it was either decent or intolerable

#

40p shock ops was pretty based though

#

64p Amiens or Achi Baba CQ could be okay

#

they were usually good

#

Cape Helles Ops for the epic destroyer farming memes

solid hinge
#

2:13 on the end theme

#

The best feeling ever

knotty prairie
#

best squad

#

then you get your statistics

#

a feeling of relief

#

that you destroyed everyone

#

and got best squad while topping the scoreboard

midnight nimbus
#

2 bad best squad is a meme

#

gotta go for the personal accolades

knotty prairie
#

yeah

midnight nimbus
#

since you always wanna be squad hopping for better spawns anyways

prime pine
#

I really liked it when it showed profile pictures

warm atlas
#

There was a lot of solid memes

#

Also throwing my hat into BF1 map discussion. St. Quentin Scar, Amiens & Achi Baba were the goats.

solid hinge
#

Sup bodie

#

Is bfv good again?

stoic breach
#

No

#

Man I wish I got to play Shock Ops

#

Turning Tides Rush was good enough though

#

River Somme rush was great cause it wasnt a 64 player mess in conquest assault

solid hinge
#

Ight imma head out

#

Guess I'm gonna keep joining marita breakthroughs

#

Need half a tow level in the next few days

stoic breach
#

Rip

#

Where my Marita DOM go stalloneBob

main grove
#

Wasn't that in the village

#

The only good part of the map

stoic breach
#

Yes

#

Dude imagine making half a fun map

#

And then the other half is just farm and extremely awkward sightlines

#

Talkin about A flag

main grove
#

A and B are awkward but not as bad as the focal point of the map being shitty C and D

#

Also

#

Do you think arras would be better on CQ if C and F were removed

#

Basically the two points on the right side that provide no cover

stoic breach
#

@main grove probably, but the entire map is better suited for modes other than CQ

#

Even though it's probably one of the best CQ maps in the game, it fits FL and DOM alot better

main grove
#

Most maps are not suited for conquest

stoic breach
#

Devastation is still the best CQ map in the game

main grove
#

Only 1942 shooting and maps fit conquest

stoic breach
#

Yeah pretty much

#

Devastation is alright in CQ cause its small and the flags are in a cross shape

main grove
#

I wonder what breakthrough would have been like on BF4/Hardline

stoic breach
#

It probably would've just been like Rush

#

I wouldve loved if Frontlines was in BF4 though

main grove
#

I never played rush on 4

stoic breach
#

Neither

#

I know how it generally is though

#

Operation Locker would've been really good on Frontlines

main grove
#

I only played 4 for maybe about 10-15 hours

stoic breach
#

Since it would just be CQ but you cant run around and cap and ruin the map for the other team

main grove
#

Most used gun was spas 12

stoic breach
#

Yeah my most used gun in 4 was probably the AN94 cause all the guns felt the same

#

Lol

#

Its why BF1 is still my favourite BF that I've played

#

Guns and gunplay is actually fun and interesting

main grove
#

Truly unique guns

#

Yeah

#

BFV might make them look different in look but there's already really predicable patterns with stuff like SMGs

#

Small mag fast
Big mag slower

stoic breach
#

Yeah sort of

#

I think the weapon balance in BFV could've definitely been much more interesting

main grove
#

I still wish I had a third branch that focuses on keeping a slow rpm low mag but super good accuracy specs

stoic breach
#

Obviously pre-5.2

#

Slow RPM low mag like RSC SMG

#

Crunchy

main grove
#

No I meant like

#

For the Tommy

#

A viable way to run 720 20round

stoic breach
#

Yeah I guess

#

Thats just the biggest issue with the spec system in general

main grove
#

If you had really good recoil/accuracy specs in the place

#

Yeah they're too simple

#

And also one sided usually

stoic breach
#

Well like, the stock weapon is always going to be worse than a specced weapon, there's more often than not going to be a more obvious spec choice

#

And its sort of limiting

#

Just because weapon balance is "good enough" but not nearly interesting enough

#

Imo

main grove
#

Miss BF1 where picking the "factory unspecced" weapon gave you massive buffs to spread decrease

stoic breach
#

Yeah

#

Thats why the variant system is always gonna be way better

#

Especially with weapons that really dont need to have one side of the spec tree chosen

main grove
#

Variants are boring as fuck but good for balance

stoic breach
#

Like the AT Rifles entire right side being shit

#

Yeah the spec system is mostly illusion of choice though

#

It could've been a more engaging way of designing variants

main grove
#

Beta spec trees were more unique

stoic breach
#

But then you sometimes just get useless specs

main grove
#

You could make 20 round detach Turner

stoic breach
#

Yeah, which was nice

#

But thats what the G1-5 for is for so eh

main grove
#

Are bolt trees balanced?

stoic breach
#

They're equally shit

main grove
#

They're kinda confusing

stoic breach
#

So yeah I guess they're balanced

main grove
#

Because I assume that faster bolt speed is for the aggressive side

#

But it's on the sniping side

stoic breach
#

Yeah, faster cyclic rate is a pretty obvious choice though, since snipers fire so slowly

#

As well as quick aim and quick reload

main grove
#

I mean they're not as slow as BF4 snipers

#

I fucking hated snipers in BF4

#

After playing BF1

stoic breach
#

Yeah BF4 snipers suck

#

They're equally shit to BFV snipers but in a different way

main grove
#

They're sluggish and janky

#

And the bullet drop is insane

#

But at least they do damage

stoic breach
#

Not that much

main grove
#

BFV snipers are snappy but their bullet is painfully slow and low damage

stoic breach
#

And being able to OHK only up to 20m is stupid

#

Yeah

main grove
#

I liked sweet spot in BF1

#

It made snipers actually different

stoic breach
#

Yeah

#

It was great

main grove
#

Straight pull was balanced by having no sweetspots

#

Until Ross I guess

stoic breach
#

BFV snipers really need that, and then bolt carbines should be moved to recon to be the "skillful" headshot snipers for people who detest sweetspots

#

Yeah, Ross sweetspot is quite nice

#

Oh yeah, snipers should all be able to rechamber while aimed, but straight pulls should be faster

main grove
#

I don't think snipers need straight pull if they were capable of sweet spotting

stoic breach
#

Even then, its for the sake of target tracking in case you do miss

#

Plus, you could drop the ADS speed for snipers with stronger sweetspots as well

#

And I'm pretty sure irl the Lee Enfield was designed so you could rechamber while aiming easily

#

If its just that the scope moves a bit, but doesnt fully disengage it would be enough

#

I think BF1 CTE had that at least

#

Should've been in the main game

main grove
#

Does MW have straight pull

stoic breach
#

Yeah it does

main grove
#

Actually that game has fucking ADS reloads which are weird

stoic breach
#

Yeah, its pretty cool

#

Doesnt have sprint reloading though, which is something I really appreciate in BF

main grove
#

Isn't there a perk for it

stoic breach
#

Maybe

#

I havent checked though

#

You know what would be nice, if BFV had sprint speed acceleration the longer you ran for

main grove
#

Don't you have infinite sprint but limited super sprint?

stoic breach
#

Yeah

main grove
#

In MW

stoic breach
#

It would be nice if there was a super sprint meter, that would be nice

#

Something else I prefer in BF games is the fact that theres a healthbar

main grove
#

God BF would be so cancer without a health bar

stoic breach
#

Yeah

main grove
#

Especially with health limits which I fucking hate and don't understand why they added

stoic breach
#

Forced teamwork, thats why

main grove
#

I mean teamwork should be massively effective

#

But not necessary

#

Like you should not be punished for not doing it

stoic breach
#

Yeah, that was how BF1 was, for the most part, but it could've been better

main grove
#

Just not rewarded

stoic breach
#

Well, individuals who can work together as individuals is good

#

Its better than people who can only operate as a team

#

Because sometimes, the team isnt good enough

main grove
#

Most people act as individuals

#

Only people who act as a "team" are clan stacks

#

And that's just sticking to each other like glue while all playing medic

stoic breach
#

Yeah, and it sucks because clans arent rewarded as much as individuals are punished

#

Yeah stacking in general is just cancer

#

Especially because of the "teamwork" mechanics dragging the entire experience down

main grove
#

Support is fucking useless now that ammo boxes that insta fill everything are ever present

stoic breach
#

Yeah

#

Its also why I wish medics couldnt give or use healthpacks

main grove
#

I would be fine with supply canisters maybe having that effect

stoic breach
#

Because players should be able to regen health equally, and medics shouldnt be reduced to walking button presses

main grove
#

Because then it's someone providing it

#

And not just the map

stoic breach
#

Yeah, even then, it would probably be better if the game had "infinite" ammo and gadgets that worked on cooldowns

main grove
#

But ammo in BF1 was near perfect

stoic breach
#

Yeah

#

Ammo 2.0 was almost there

#

Supports shouldnt be walking button presses either

#

Its not truly helpful to have a support, it just sucks to not have one

main grove
#

Support should either be mechanic or ammo bearing

#

Not both

stoic breach
#

Like congratulations, you have 2 entire classes that provide the bare minimum for an FPS to work, that other games already have

#

That being health regen and infinite ammo

main grove
#

I kind of wish we had BF4 classes again

#

Assault

#

Engineer

#

Support

#

Scout

stoic breach
#

Support mechanic also kind of sucks but its better than ammo support

main grove
#

Engi being the AT class was great

stoic breach
#

Yeah, but I do like the way that BF1 and BFV have Assault, Medic, Support and Recon

#

All classes should have varying degrees of AT

main grove
#

Assault in BF4 was essentially just medic with ARs

#

And GL

stoic breach
#

Yeah the reason why BF4 medic was so strong was because they could heal faster than other classes, and ARs were strong in general

main grove
#

Support kind of struggled to be useful though

#

In BF4

stoic breach
#

Thats why AR medic could work in BFV if you took away the ability to self heal, and gave everyone equal regen power

main grove
#

They had very niche gadgets that just didn't work most of the time

stoic breach
#

Because medics could still revive people

#

Yeah

#

Like having a 5 second delay before a full 100hp heal in BFV would be good

main grove
#

Should assaults get SMGs and Shotguns again

stoic breach
#

Or a 3 second delay before a 100hp regen over 2 or 3 seconds

#

Yeah they should

main grove
#

While medic would get SAR and AR with no self heal

stoic breach
#

I think medic with AR and semi-carbine would be alright

#

And recon should have bolt carbine

#

Assault SAR/Shotgun/SMG works well as is

main grove
#

Support having Shotguns is just odd

stoic breach
#

Its also stupid

#

Class roles dont benefit shotguns at all

#

And defensive shotgun sucks in general

main grove
#

Like support is meant to be the most ranged class behind scout

stoic breach
#

I think medic SAR would be slightly stronger than it really needs to be

#

Medic having AR makes sense, because it loses to SMGs in CQB and SARs at long range

#

But can still hold its own really well, and can beat an SAR if they arent good enough

#

AR medic would be acting as an intermediate power that can be team support

main grove
#

Thats SARs tho in a world of no spread

stoic breach
#

Basically bolstering the power of assault SAR

#

Yeah

main grove
#

I don't like spread

#

At all

#

But without it

stoic breach
#

Well spread is good as a balancing factor, it just doesnt need to be super extreme

main grove
#

Balancing is much harder

stoic breach
#

Enough spread that can strike a balance between intuitive gunplay and range balance is good

main grove
#

BF1 with a little less id say is good

stoic breach
#

BFV without spread-to-recoil would've been the ideal system

#

They were so close

main grove
#

Sometimes spread on those SARs went truly bullshit

stoic breach
#

Yeah

main grove
#

It was horrible because I'd use general Liu bolt mode

#

And miss most the time

stoic breach
#

Rip

#

Yeah wide base spread doesnt need to be super extreme

coarse thunder
#

So glad that bolt mode got added

stoic breach
#

For SMGs a slightly higher base spread would be fine

#

So SMGs can be 4-6BTK but not be able to be used at range

main grove
#

Higher base spread with lower max spread

stoic breach
#

Varying between weapons, that would be good enough

main grove
#

Visual recoil in BF1 kinda got annoying as well

#

RSC SMG

stoic breach
#

But again, not extremely high base spread, but enough to where you wont hit shots at 40m+ without a bit of RNG

#

RSC SMG was still really good despite that

#

Cause of its good damage and base spread

main grove
#

Yeah I only managed it with hipfire

#

Well now that I've played BFV and was able to tweak aim ratio

#

BF1 ADS feel so shit to me

stoic breach
#

BF1 still has really good options

main grove
#

Like near equal values of horizontal and vertical sensitivity

#

I usually play with 52% aim ratio

#

So aiming up and down is 52% slower

stoic breach
#

Yeah

#

Fair enough

main grove
#

Just remembered how every BF1 map could get foggy as fuck

stoic breach
#

Yeah, it was shit but I kind of liked it

#

It was just really stupid

coarse thunder
#

Foggy desert be like

main grove
#

Fog in Sinai desert

#

There was a sandstorm but it was much rarer

stoic breach
#

Even better was when my friend got client side sandstorm on Sinai but there wasnt a sandstorm

#

So I had to help him direct his tank

main grove
#

It was cool how you could see it coming for a while though

#

Oh yeah

#

My friend said he got a sandstorm and could not see shit when he was in the back of my plane

#

Yet it was perfectly sunny for me

stoic breach
#

Yeah fuckin weird

coarse thunder

Client side weather OMEGALUL

Boins only tank stuff is only found in bundles

nice, shot through an entire house

They did release some rare tank stuff in the armoury a while back for CC for a week

But it was for the Churchill gun carrier

I think there was also two plane skinsb

A blue one for the spitfire

And a wavy white line one for the ju-88

gray saffron

wait, old common as in from the ToW i thought. if it was in the armory for cc, they can still return

Well it was in the character customization

Last time I saw

you mean the pit crew stuff?

should've read before buying this game thinkcat

uneven hollow
#

Weren’t rare outfits also supposed to be worth CC

#

Or was it only for common and uncommon

gray saffron
#

i don't think it's the gun. it's not much different from a suomi or tommy. it's just annoying that it's in such huge amount of use atm. maybe a bit more recoil would be neat so it isn't as effective over range and becomes a true cqc gun.

#

yeah they were. but i guess dice found a loophole with the bundles :<

tough lodge
#

The grease gun actually has recoil tho

#

Manageable but hard kicking

gray saffron
#

a tip with the 2a. just hide behind objects when it's firing at you. he'll be reloading in a few seconds and it's pretty long. so that's a good moment to pop out and kill him ;3

main grove
#

2A reloads very fast though

#

It's really easy to do well with

tough lodge
#

You have 1 second to kill a 2a user

#

Before you eat 25 bullets in 1 second

main grove
#

600 rpm is 10 bullets a second

raw orbit
#

2A should have a longer reload and light bolt suomi/tommy should be shorter cause like actually why would you ever use the suomi or tommy now lmao

main grove
#

So at 1200rpm it will be shooting 20 a second

tough lodge
#

Idea to nerf 2a

#

Minimum BTK 15

#

Max 30

raw orbit
#

lul

main grove
#

Unironically make it maybe min 6btk

#

Not like MG34 or M1922 is already 6 min

open surge
#

@gray saffron how do i hide behind things if i make it behind a whole building and still die

tough lodge
#

Even if it's 15 btk it can still kill you at less than a second

gray saffron
#

building was a spy obviously

open surge
#

gestapo building

main grove
#

Yeah but about 700ms TTK will be very bad

#

Madsen is around 500-700 I think

#

Right now

tough lodge
#

Just make it 800 rpm and light bolt to 1028

last pebble
#

any advice for good support guns?

tough lodge
#

@last pebble BAR

main grove
#

6 minimum dropping of to 10 around 30m would be fine

tough lodge
#

Well I use faction specific weapons and my favorite class is support

last pebble
#

how's the specs?

stoic breach
#

Suomi/Thompson still do more damage than the 2A

tough lodge
#

Brits - bren
Germans - fg42
American - bar
Japs - type 97

stoic breach
#

If the 2A only had a 20 round mag it would be the worst of the 3

main grove
#

2A is more magdump friendly

tough lodge
#

I always go with quick aim and some recoil reduction specs

stoic breach
#

Yeah just cause of the extra ammo

main grove
#

Suomi and Tommy are better for busting

#

If you run 20 round

last pebble
#

okay thanks @tough lodge

gray saffron
#

yaay bren user!

raw orbit
#

is this btk or ttk?

tough lodge
#

Slap a 3x scope on the bren and find some good position

#

Kill and move

#

Repeat

main grove
#

Suomi and Tommy perform better in btk

raw orbit
#

how does the ttk compare between suomi/tommy/2A tho

stoic breach
#

Oh yeah 800rpm Type 2A would be really generic

main grove
#

Light suomi beats 2A

stoic breach
#

800rpm is what the Type 100 should be

main grove
#

But that 2A can have 30 extra bullets

#

It's super made as an easy weapon

tough lodge
#

Type 2a should have been a battle pick up with 3 extra mags not refillable

#

Change my mind

gray saffron
#

lol

stoic breach
#

Thats a terrible idea

#

Considering the 2A is weaker than the Suomi/Thompson

gray saffron
#

i rather want bazookas as battlepick ups 😦

raw orbit
#

where to view bf weapon stats?

main grove
#

2A is weaker objectively but the feature that makes it good isn't its rpm or recoil

raw orbit
#

robenter doesnt have the 2A yet

stoic breach
main grove
#

It's the mag size and reload

raw orbit
#

thx

open surge
#

yeah the reload is insane

#

super short, and 50 rounds reloaded at once too

main grove
#

20 round suomi and Tommy take forever to reload

#

In comparison

stoic breach
#

Yeah, I feel like the Type 2A should only have the 50 round mag or only have light bolt

last pebble
#

type 2a was absolutely OP in every aspect

main grove
#

No

#

It's damage is shit

open surge
#

or a lengthened reload with the extended mag

main grove
#

It's velocity is the worst in the game I think

stoic breach
#

If the game had variants instead of specs, the Type 2A would probably only release with one variant

raw orbit
stoic breach
#

Thats based on all bullets landing, and the 2A has worse hrec

#

Than either of the two weapons

shy badger
#

Tomorrow we're getting news about the new chaoter right?

main grove
#

It's not OP at all it's just a new weapon that's decent so it's being used a lot

raw orbit
#

id also like to see footage of the type 2A having more horizontal recoil because when i tested this myself it definitely had less

main grove
#

It maybe should be a bit harder to use

#

Grease gun IMO is stronger than 2A

stoic breach
#

Overall the 2A is stronger than grease gun, but the grease gun is still nice

main grove
#

Do you think maybe the 2A might need to drop off to 6btk really close

#

Like 6m

stoic breach
#

Nah that would make it a shit weapon

main grove
#

Automatico in BF1 started to drop pretty much instantly

stoic breach
#

Also I think I found the stat for hrec

main grove
#

How was automatico balanced

#

Because I remember that having terrible damage

stoic breach
#

It was 4-6BTK but the spread was shit

main grove
#

Was it 4-6?

stoic breach
#

I can check now to make sure

slate carbon
#

is dice done with firestorm?

main grove
#

That's fucking mental I swear it was 5-7 or something

#

Or am I looking at launch stats

stoic breach
#

Ok it was 4-8BTK

#

I just checked

main grove
#

If you had to nerf the 2A somehow ever so slightly

#

What would you change

maiden sparrow
#

more recoil

main grove
#

The recoil only becomes an issue beyond 15m really

maiden sparrow
#

yes but its an smg, its supposed to be good at close range

stoic breach
#

I would probably make the Type 2A have a slightly slower reload

main grove
#

Except the h rec makes it a bit RNG-ey

minor jacinth
#

Hm

#

Started BF5 after a few weeks. still shit

stoic breach
#

I'm looking at the specs now just to think about it

maiden sparrow
#

slower reload wont change enough

minor jacinth
#

the Type 2 A is totally broken

stoic breach
#

Because like, the whole point of the Type 2A is ease of use magdump at a high speed

#

Nerfing anything too much will just defeat the purpose of the weapon

gray saffron
#

yeah slower reload would make it easy to use, hard to master. if you dump your mag into a guy and he's still not dead, you're dead fish 😄

raw orbit
#

nerfing an easy to use gun would make it not easy to use anymore
wow really thats crazy dude

maiden sparrow
#

tbh I have been enjoying the grease gun recently

main grove
#

50 round mag is just way too forgiving

#

Maybe remove it or make it a long ass reload

gray saffron
#

when the 2a gives me more mg42 vibes than the mg42. 😦

stoic breach
#

Dont know what the condescending attitude is for

main grove
#

Like 4 sec empty or something

stoic breach
#

Type 2A should still be an easy gun if it was to be nerfed

shy badger
#

I love the grease gun

stoic breach
#

But more like low effort low reward I guess

main grove
#

Type 2A should be worse than suomi or Tommy

gray saffron
#

hai blackout 😄

main grove
#

But easier to use

raw orbit
#

yes thats fair

shy badger
#

It's really easy getting multi kills with it compared to other weapons

main grove
#

Like comparing type 100 to fast ZK

minor jacinth
#

Every Medic plays with the Typ 2 A

shy badger
#

Hey jer! How you doing ?

gray saffron
#

fine fine ^^, you? 😄

maiden sparrow
#

easy to use guns should still be in the game, but a good player should be better with something else

stoic breach
#

Oh wait, probably removing polished action from the spec tree would be alright

shy badger
#

Feeling pretty crap, woke up at 2 pm

gray saffron
#

awwh

minor jacinth
#

I still whoop their asses with my suomi

raw orbit
#

no rsc smg
no chauchat
why live

stoic breach
#

Maybe the Type 2A should lose quick aim as well

#

Doesnt really make the weapon harder to use, but it'll lose milliseconds against other SMGs

shy badger
#

The only thing it should lose is recoil imo

#

Or gain recoil more like

#

It's pretty easy to laser people at 50m

stoic breach
#

Nah, the recoil is fine I think

#

Maybe if it had slightly more hrec

shy badger
#

Does little damage but it stacks up

stoic breach
#

Idk, BFV doesnt really have a way for weapons to increase hrec just because of the spread-to-recoil conversion

#

So increasing hrec would just increase screenshake, which sucks

shy badger
#

So maybe increasing spread

#

This is the one gun I wouldn't mind it tbh

gray saffron
#

spread and reload changes i can get behind.

stoic breach
#

Increasing spread would work in BF1 because theres no spread-to-recoil

#

BFV just guts spread changes because having too much spread means more screenshake recoil

#

Its really annoying

rancid burrow
#

Type 2a skillcannon

shy badger
#

Spread is tied by recoil?

stoic breach
#

Recoil is tied to spread

#

The camera follows your bullets because of spread-to-recoil

#

So the gun literally determines where your screen goes, not you

rancid burrow
#

It’s very difficult to use 1000rpm 50 round mag

#

Everyone’s saying it

shy badger
#

There's the recoil pattern the camera follows and there's the random bullet spread

#

Like in cs

#

Or that'a how I remember it

main grove
#

But recoil in games makes your screen move

#

They always do

minor jacinth
#

and I didnt miss that quickscope sniper in close combat

#

Ahhh

#

Alt +f4

uneven hollow
#

We need a jap assault gun

stoic breach
#

But the difference is that the recoil in BFV works differently to other games because the recoil in BFV follows where your bullets go

#

Its not the camera that dictates where the bullets go, other than the first shot

main grove
#

Is that... Bad?

#

I don't really know

stoic breach
#

Yeah

#

Its why SARs dont have hrec

#

Because you'd get screenshake every time you click

main grove
#

So ok

#

In a game like BF1

#

The recoil is based off of

#

Where?

stoic breach
#

I think its just screen recoil that's independent of spread

tough lodge
#

Jap assault weapon would be type 4

#

Or type 5

#

What ever that was

main grove
#

But BFV makes it so that the recoil is based off of where the last bullet was fired

#

So the recoil is more like a randomly generated pattern

stoic breach
#

Yes

#

The camera will follow the spread of the bullets

main grove
#

Rather than a lot of spread with linear recoil making the bullets disperse a lot

#

But not move much

stoic breach
#

Yeah if I've got the right idea it should be like that yeah

main grove
#

So what should BFV use instead

#

Because I think spread to recoil increase is a good idea

stoic breach
#

Regular spread, with no spread-to-recoil

main grove
#

It usually punishes magdumping but in a more in your face way

#

Spread is more subtle

#

I think you notice spread to recoil the most if you hipfire into ads

#

Since by hipfiring you let the spread reach its peak

#

Also holy shit I just remembered

stoic breach
#

Yeah

main grove
#

In BF1 you can set recoil balance

#

Bias

#

From left, centered and right

stoic breach
#

Yeah

#

I forgot about that actually

#

Which means that recoil is independent of spread

#

Also I just watched some gameplay of the Type 2A

#

It looks fun but not really that much more amazing than just using a light bolt Suomi and reloading alot

#

But the fact that it doesnt have much vertical recoil is really nice

novel blaze
#

suomi bas

#

bad

gray saffron
#

"watch some gameplay" you haven't played with it, razen? ;D

stoic breach
#

No

#

Why would I

#

I dont enjoy the game

raw orbit
#

It's literally the suomi with more bullets less ttk and less reload speed lmao

main grove
#

I wish light Tommy was better than suomi

#

I remember Tommy used to do better damage

#

Ages ago

#

At launch

#

Because.45 ACP

#

But then they nerfed it

stoic breach
#

Alright I think I have an idea of how to "nerf" the Type 2A

#

Get rid of light bolt because its unnecessary, replace light bolt with polished action

main grove
#

What does polished action do

stoic breach
#

Its a hipfire upgrade

main grove
#

So an ADS 50 round tree

#

And a 30 round hipfire tree

stoic breach
#

Or even then, get rid of polished action, reduce the reload speed, and add quick reload as a spec, which brings it back up to what it is now

main grove
#

I wish quick reload was on a gun to gun basis rather than just always 15%

stoic breach
#

Well, even then 15% is a decent amount

#

And having more than 15% would just make reload speeds really inconsistent

#

Like between spec and non-spec

main grove
#

Yeah on some guns I never change the spec like on Stg 1-5 and STEN

#

Which I both have on hipfire

stoic breach
#

Yeah

main grove
#

And when I turn it off

stoic breach
#

Oh yeah Type 2A actually has the fastest reload between that, Suomi and Thompson

main grove
#

I really notice the sluggish reload

stoic breach
#

Interesting

main grove
#

It's wierd because I look at what's different between STEN and MP40

#

And the biggest difference is STEN shoots a slightly faster bullet

barren zenith
#

lol

stoic breach
#

Thats fantastic

main grove
#

Which goes against how I've always specced them

#

I've always made STEN out as hipfire

#

And MP40 as ADS

#

Even though they should be the other way around

stoic breach
#

Well the MP40 has better ADS accuracy than the STEN

#

But only marginally

main grove
#

I felt like they could have given STEN less v rec and more h rec

#

While MP40 is other way around

#

To make them more different

stoic breach
#

Maybe

#

It would be nice if the MP40/STEN maybe had a longer 4BTK range just to make up for the low hitrate

#

Idk

gray saffron
#

I feel most smgs in the game are fine atm

stoic breach
#

They could've always had some improvements

#

But they were alright

#

@main grove I feel like I'm getting closer to working out a good reworked spec tree for the Type 2A

#

Only problem is that I don't know if the spec tree layout is specifically laid out that way

novel blaze
#

i tried the fg 42 and why are people complaining

stoic breach
#

I actually sent that early whoops

raw orbit
#

It's 2020 and each class still only has 2 roles each

gray saffron
#

fg42 got fixed in 5.2.2. it was mweh in 5.2

#

it ain't so bad now

main grove
#

Its now for almost no recoil at all

#

It is a laser

#

But has a laser Pointer's damage

stoic breach
#

lol

#

Oh yeah I forgot to mention

strong parrot
#

No recoil doesn't mean much when can't kill anything before they kill you.. even if you have the advantagehaHAA

stoic breach
#

The reason SMGs feel like they dont have any vertical recoil

#

Is because they have a vrec of 0

#

For some at least

strong parrot
#

Nice balance

stoic breach
#

unless im reading it wrong

#

but yeah

main grove
#

Isn't it initial vrec

#

That's 0

#

It does gain some I'm sure

stoic breach
#

Well, I'm looking at the numbers

#

It says ADSStandRecoilUp 0

#

actually wait

#

I cant take screenshot

#

i almost forgot

prime pine
#

Fg42 is ok but is outclassed by the BAR

stoic breach
#

Type 2A / Thompson / Suomi

prime pine
#

Exact same recoil, damage, higher rpm overall (Fg and bar)

stoic breach
#

Proof the Type 2A has the worst hrec

prime pine
#

Honestly. These subbies wouldnt be poorly balanced pre 5.2

#

They'd be about the same

shy badger
#

ooo pink bowodie

tough lodge
#

is 3x scopes on lmgs good

prime pine
#

Noot noot blackout

shy badger
#

noot noot

tough lodge
#

I only use 3x on low rpm lmgs

prime pine
#

!

#

Scope would be acceptable on shit like lewis and bren

#

Type 97 and madsen

tough lodge
#

Yea i have 3x scope on bren and 97

#

AA sight on fg42 and bar

shy badger
#

I wouldn't use a scope on the t97 personally

#

I wouldn't use it at all actually unless you like the gun

#

But if you do use it stick to short range

prime pine
#

I use irons on the fg42 and aa sight on bar

tough lodge
#

My playstyle depends on the faction lol

#

Faction specific weapon gang

prime pine
#

Eh

#

Cant be bothered on that part

tough lodge
#

I play defensive as brits and japs

#

And offensive to american and german

#

Like as brit or jap i go somewhere around the backline

coarse thunder
#

On the offensive as germans in op. underground 🤔

prime pine
#

Fg42 (when it was good) on all factions wooo

tough lodge
#

Yea i wonder how it felt lol

stoic breach
#

It was good

tough lodge
#

I only played a small part of 5.0

#

During free weekend

#

Didnt really got to play it much

stoic breach
#

Would've been cool if the FG42 was a 4-5BTK

prime pine
#

What did you get out of your small playtime

stoic breach
#

Since it uses the same ammo as FG42/MG34/Kar98

tough lodge
#

@prime pine hackers

prime pine
#

Fg42 was perfectly alright as a 4-6HK

stoic breach
#

Yeah it was

prime pine
#

Oh boy hackers

stoic breach
#

But it would've been sick

tough lodge
#

Feels bad to be asian

#

I always play NA with 160 ping

stoic breach
#

I would've loved to see universal 4-5BTK for MMGS as well

#

Other than the MG42

open surge
#

m3 grease gun is like the only gun that feels honest to god powerful

stoic breach
#

Which could just stay 4-6

open surge
#

imo

stoic breach
#

Yeah cause it has the least shit min damage

tough lodge
#

M3 feels like 5.2.2 never dropped

open surge
#

i sadly never got to experience the game pre-5.2 pensivewiggle

#

cos I only very recently got a ps4

stoic breach
#

Well, guns did more damage

#

All was well

open surge
#

and wanted to get back into battlefield

#

so I got both bf1 and bfv

prime pine
#

Guns werent as shit in a range

tough lodge
#

roebenter still shows old damage models

open surge
#

yeah I've seen gameplay

#

looks a lot more enjoyable

tough lodge
#

Fg 42 was 4-6 btk

#

Garand was 3 to 4 btk

prime pine
#

If you could control your damage. It wasnt all bad

#

Not damage

#

But recoil

open surge
#

people actually dropped quickly when you got a good flank off with a smg

tough lodge
#

Also flares

#

Man

#

Flares should be map only

prime pine
#

Oh gid

#

God

#

I forgot the flare meta

tough lodge
#

Not doritos above head

prime pine
#

The flare heavy meta

shy badger
#

People still drop pretty quickly with SMGs

#

If you stick to pretty close range and use the right gun

prime pine
#

Werent subbies 4-7HK?

open surge
#

i don't count the type 2a as a smg

tough lodge
#

I dont want the flare gun gone but it should be adjusted

open surge
#

it's a light mounted machine gun assault rifle submachine shotgun

shy badger
#

Even type 2a aside haha, the tommy and suomi are still good

tough lodge
#

Minimap only spotting

prime pine
#

Flare gun is in a much better state right now

tough lodge
#

No doritos

shy badger
#

At dropping people fast that is

stoic breach
#

SMGs were 4-8BTK

shy badger
#

M3 is such a different experience to other guns though

tough lodge
#

Now they are 4 to 10

open surge
#

pap pap pap

stoic breach
#

MP34 was the only 4-7

#

Yeah the SMGs should be either 4-6BTK or 4-7BTK

tough lodge
#

Funny how dice actually thought of 5 to 13 btk on a 20 round gun

stoic breach
#

Not 4-10

tough lodge
open surge
#

5 to 13?

stoic breach
#

When 5.2 first released

tough lodge
#

Fg42 was 5 to 13

stoic breach
#

Lol

open surge
#

oh lord

tough lodge
#

Then hotfixed to 4 to 9

stoic breach
#

4-9 is still shit btw

open surge
#

you might as well have turned it into the fg42 from the original call of duty

tough lodge
#

Same with tommy

open surge
#

MOUNTAINS of upwards recoil

#

you'd hit the moon by accident

tough lodge
#

Cod 1 had fg 42?

open surge
#

yeah

tough lodge
#

I dont remember picking up one

open surge
#

think it was singleplayer only

#

not sure, it's been literal years

tough lodge
#

In single player games i always go bolt action

#

Like in cod waw

open surge
#

oh it was a pickup weapon in mp

tough lodge
#

And any other ww2 cod

#

Same with bf1

#

Bolt action for max immersion

stoic breach
#

Good thing bolt actions were actually good in BF1

tough lodge
#

Only do it in story mode

#

I dont even play recon

open surge
#

I really liked the bolt actions in bf1

#

and the lever action russian 1895

stoic breach
#

Yeah

open surge
#

just snipers and stuff in general

stoic breach
#

They actually killed people in BF1

#

Every bolt action was equally viable

#

Because of the sweetspots

open surge
#

in bf5 i've gotten countless close range hitmarkers with bolt actions

stoic breach
#

Yeah cause the bolts in BFV are shit

tough lodge
#

I hs'ed a guy 3 times and he hackusated me

open surge
#

did they remove sweetspots

tough lodge
#

That was so funny

stoic breach
#

Yes

open surge
#

sad

haughty pawn
#

play a round combined arms,pick a dropped weapon and you get a pre 5.2 btk,man that feels soooo nice...

stoic breach
#

Because they were "too strong" I guess

#

BFV is just an overall low power game

#

BF1 was peak for weapon balance and fun gunplay

#

After TTK2.0

icy sluice
coarse thunder
tough lodge
#

Buddy revives werent 100 hp back in beta right?

#

Its onlt like 40hp

open surge
#

i really don't like the bleed out system

stoic breach
#

The bleed out is just weird

tough lodge
#

Cant dent a revive

stoic breach
#

Yeah its a huge flaw

icy sluice
#

You can deny a revive, just hold the fire button

stoic breach
#

You just get killed, then some idiot medic comes over and tries to rev you

open surge
#

i now get to watch the ally medic fuck off to golmud railway or something

#

or they walk right into the person who got me

stoic breach
#

And you cant deny fast enough sometimes

tough lodge
#

@icy sluice what

#

you can?

stoic breach
#

BF4 deny revive was peak

open surge
#

probably means bleeding out faster

icy sluice
#

The revive systems are literally the same, just in BFV your camera isn't fixated on the person that killed you lmao

stoic breach
#

The revive systems are not the same

open surge
#

but now I get to see the silhouette of my idiot medic

#

as he walks into the enemy chi-ha

tough lodge
#

I think when you get revived there should be "press space to stand up"

icy sluice
#

You also get to see what is around you so you can do callouts

#

You could also just redeploy if you're unhappy with the revive

#

and want to die

coarse thunder
#

I don't really see a problem with the current revive scheme

stoic breach
#

I mean yeah, but thats still like 2.5 seconds you have to watch yourself get revived

tough lodge
#

Redeploy will make you sit 10 secs on deploy screen

stoic breach
#

And medics can revive-cancel if they feel like griefing

#

Dead players cant choose to cancel a revive during the animation

coarse thunder
#

Redeploy is the best thing to do in modes like conquest or if you just want to deny the enemy a kill lol

raw orbit
#

What I hated in bf1 and is still present in bf1 is that you can't just go to the redeploy screen instantly. You have to hold a button for like 5 second every single time

icy sluice
#

Most of the time a revive cancel happens is either by accident or someone is coming up on you.

stoic breach
#

Yeah

tough lodge
#

Also, redeploy doesnt have confirmation button

#

Misclicked in many times already

icy sluice
#

It's good that you can cancel the revive

tough lodge
#

Trying to cbange squads

stoic breach
#

No like, infinite revive cancelling to revive-lock dead players

#

Cause you cant opt out

tough lodge
#

Unlike in bf4 you had "are you sure you want to redeploy?"

stoic breach
#

Yeah, revive accept was a really good system

#

BFV should've used needles to revive like in BF1

#

Because once the medic's done his job, thats it

coarse thunder
#

Uh

icy sluice
#

You still do really

#

There's just an animation for it

stoic breach
#

And the dead player should have the option to accept it or deny it like in BF4

prime pine
#

I remember

coarse thunder
#

They do use needles lmao. They don't stab a bicycle pump in your arm

stoic breach
#

Thats not what I meant at all

#

Dude

#

I mean the gadget

#

Not the fuckin animation

prime pine
#

I watch watching ravics bf5's beta footage. While he was down his killer was highlighted in red

#

And he witnessed that fucking enemy stab his squadmate

icy sluice
#

I'd rather we keep the smoke grenade launcher and being able to heal as well as revive

prime pine
#

I use smoke grenades personally

#

Less range but much quicker

coarse thunder
#

Full smoke

#

5 smokes

#

Much lung cancer

icy sluice
#

Every class right now require a gadget that plays their role.
Assault always has something against vehicles
Medics is always able to heal and revive
Support always has ammo to give out
Recon always has something to spot with

prime pine
#

I barely even use the launcher

icy sluice
#

I use it for advancing

prime pine
#

Unless im out of grenades

#

Yeah plus the ranfe

#

Range

worthy hornet
#

Hey guys. Whenever I play BF5 (PS4) while using the tank, the tank always moves to the right side whenever the tank does not move. It makes it impossible for me to hit any shots. Any help?

stoic breach
#

I still think that medics should have a needle gadget to revive with

prime pine
#

I just fire the launcher at the place i presume enemies are

stoic breach
#

Maybe if you just equip the toolbox it would have the same effect

#

You stab a player and they get the option to accept or deny the revive

#

I would rather that than a 2.5 second animation that I have no control over

coarse thunder
#

What actually is the benefit of this with bf5s revive system

stoic breach
#

So you can choose to not be revived by a medic if they get to you before you can bleed out by yourself

coarse thunder
#

They aren't going to change the fact that revives have an anim, something known before the beta

stoic breach
#

Which is really shit

#

Cause the animation sucks

prime pine
#

I like this revive system. Its not as ludicrously fast

icy sluice
#

It helps stop Rambo Reviving

stoic breach
#

Cooldowns stopped the rambo revive

#

Which is what medics had

icy sluice
#

Cooldown was really, really short

stoic breach
#

And people still rambo revive in BFV

#

Using smoke grenades

#

So nothing has changed

icy sluice
#

It is still possible yes, but it's now longer

coarse thunder
#

If anything (this pertains to bf1 more) the needle should've acted more like the defib paddles since there's an anim of the player character drawing out more revive juice

prime pine
#

I like knifing people who are reviving

icy sluice
#

Also the animation limits visibility

stoic breach
#

Which is really shit

#

Because the last thing you want when trying to help someone is not being able to see shit

icy sluice
#

It's meant to have risk

prime pine
#

Buddy revives are nice

stoic breach
#

Thats not really a risk when people just throw smokes

#

The idea doesnt exactly get across

#

To medics

coarse thunder
#

Medics had like a 3-5 second cooldown lmao

#

Just dump your ammo downrange until you can revive like 10 people again

icy sluice
#

I swear I remember reviving like 5 guys in like 3 seconds in BF1 several times

worthy hornet
#

Hey guys. Whenever I play BF5 (PS4) while using the tank, the tank always moves to the right side whenever the tank does not move. It makes it impossible for me to hit any shots. Any help?

stoic breach
#

You only get 2 revives before the cooldown starts

lilac umbra
#

i have same issue

stoic breach
#

The needle says 2/2 where the ammo counter is

lilac umbra
#

its eiter way deadzone or controller is drifting

coarse thunder
#

I feel like the cooldown was faster when in the radius of an ammo box

stoic breach
#

I dont think it was

#
