Base Garand was 3-5 BTK

At range

[robust mango]

vs the other LMGs struggling with recoil and ammo problems

[queen canopy]

Ok yeah fuck the Lewis gun

[frozen orchid]

Seems balanced for an 8 round SAR

[robust mango]

lewis gun has been broken for a long time, nobody bats and eye, suddenly the 2A is new and popular and people bitch

meanwhile they use the lewis gun lmao

[frozen orchid]

I mean... SLR

[robust mango]

just wait until the 2A is nerfed

[midnight nimbus]

Garand used to be 3-4 BTK 360RPM or 3-3 BTK 300RPM with Heavy Load

[robust mango]

and the sumoi gets used again

[midnight nimbus]

it was fine

[robust mango]

3 i guess is fine

with a 300 RPM

as long as it can kill at range in 3

[solid hinge]

5.0 balancing was solid for most guns

[robust mango]

exactly

[queen canopy]

The Type 2A is already overrated

[robust mango]

if we can return to a battlefield where people will use guns like the FG42 and stuff

[queen canopy]

It’s about to be even more so

[midnight nimbus]

5.0 weapon balance was the best in the entire fps industry

kek

[robust mango]

the 2A isnt even the strongest SMG

[midnight nimbus]

unironically

[queen canopy]

Suomi is literally better

[robust mango]

yes

[solid hinge]

mp34 sucked and that was enough to make me sad

[robust mango]

thank you

[queen canopy]

It’s just new and shiny and gets salt so people use it

[solid hinge]

but agreed

[robust mango]

the sumoi is better in every way

[midnight nimbus]

MP34 was ok

wasn't bad

[queen canopy]

I liked MP34 as a weapon

[robust mango]

the MAB is really strong in 5.0

[midnight nimbus]

just needed a few spec changes to be in line with ZK

[queen canopy]

Also it had a bayonet for the memes

[solid hinge]

Did you guys know you can defuse enemy dynamite?

[balmy condor]

Several people are typing

[robust mango]

and the ZK is just the mp34 but better

[solid hinge]

it was the ZK but worse asides from one less btk at 75m

[frozen orchid]

Was there a full auto option for the EMP? I can't remember...

[solid hinge]

Ive been playing fir like a year and i just realized this

[midnight nimbus]

5.0 just needed slightly better dmg models

[solid hinge]

not like bad but irritating

The po8c had that too

[midnight nimbus]

not worse

[solid hinge]

one less btk at 75 metres or something stupid

[balmy condor]

p08 pepelaugh

[queen canopy]

Yeah AT mines can be defused as well

It’s easier to just shoot them

But still

[hollow flax]

Good afternoon guys, I have a doubt
I bought the game recently and I would like to know how do I play with airplanes in multiplayer mode, if someone can solve my doubt I will be grateful

[solid hinge]

it was worse because bayonet required giving up barrel bedding

which is a horrible decision

makes me cry every time

[queen canopy]

@hollow flax Planes are available for anyone to spawn in if one is available

Each team has a set number of planes depending on the map

[solid hinge]

Ask Pilot guy for strats @hollow flax

He is in the top 0.1% of pilots in the world

[queen canopy]

So am I lul

And I’m here

[balmy condor]

[robust mango]

ask the pilot bros

[queen canopy]

[robust mango]

[queen canopy]

[robust mango]

ask BF 109

hes a pilot bro

[queen canopy]

[robust mango]

and he HATES runways

like the rest of us

[queen canopy]

Yeah

FUCK runways

[robust mango]

they need a MASSIVE tweak

[queen canopy]

They need to not exist

[robust mango]

runways are dumb as hell in this game

[brave garnet]

@queen canopydo you want to spawn on Air spawn #1?

[solid hinge]

Absolutely

[queen canopy]

Any air spawn

[hollow flax]

I understand, so it all depends on the map I'm playing, if that map is released planes and the number of planes for each team ...
Sorry for my English, I'm Brazilian and I'm having difficulties with the translator here.

[robust mango]

i made the mistake of going on the BF reddit

and immediately seeing people bitching about planes bombing tanks

meanwhile americans can attack the 2nd point on pacific storm or wake island with like 3-4 tanks

same with solomon islands

[hollow flax]

thanks guys hugs

[orchid arch]

planes are just dumb

[coral fiber]

Me 0.1% in the World?

[orchid arch]

when did we ask

[coral fiber]

@solid hinge

[teal phoenix]

People are always gonna bitch about planes owning the ground forces, and pilots will always bitch the moment said ground forces have a viable option to counter them

[coral fiber]

Pretty much yeah

It's always the bad pilots who cry

[orchid arch]

i cant even fly

[solid hinge]

I have returned.

[coral fiber]

Whenever i play infantry i do get frustrated by planes lol

[orchid arch]

use flegirs

thats what i do

[ripe pumice]

battlefield V more like server is down?

[solid hinge]

or pull some epicc aa

[orchid arch]

that too

[coral fiber]

Flieger is so ez to use once you get used to it

[orchid arch]

except i get bombed by zeros

[solid hinge]

deal with it

[orchid arch]

everytime

[coral fiber]

Bofors 40mm AA gun is pretty strong

[teal phoenix]

They don't usually cause me too much trouble but it's definitely annoying when you're the only person getting gunned down by one when said pilot could be idk... Focusing on the larger group of people pushing onto a point

[coral fiber]

People just don't wanna get killed by planes i guess but guess what reddit
It's battlefield

I've even seen some posts where reddit wants to comepletely remove vehicles from battlefield

Like lmfao

[orchid arch]

lmao

what fricking monkeys🐒

they should make an LTM thats just straight conquest no planes or tanks

infantry focused

[solid hinge]

Nah

[orchid arch]

or where the teams use their standard issue rifle

[solid hinge]

It ruins bf identity

[teal phoenix]

Do we have infantry focused maps already? I forget

[orchid arch]

an ltm

[coral fiber]

I wouldn't mind if the 2x 500lb bombs have a delay treatment like the incendiary has
Then completely remove 3rd person bombing reticle because i spent so much damn time learning bombs drops only to DICE to aid the fucking noob pilots

Pisses me off so much

[orchid arch]

u can aim

tf

[coral fiber]

Yeah it's pretty ez

[orchid arch]

i use the white circles

never get hits

[coral fiber]

I have a montage of bomb drops before 3rd person reticles

[solid hinge]

I'm surprised you're more upset about bomb reticle than ttk change

[coral fiber]

Oh no that's worse

[orchid arch]

honestly ttk

didnt see a diffrence

[queen canopy]

^

[orchid arch]

bullets

[solid hinge]

For me yes

[coral fiber]

I loved 5.0 gunplay
The only reason why i liked infantry

[queen canopy]

Yeah bomb reticle is the real problem

[orchid arch]

shot

[queen canopy]

Not power

[orchid arch]

bullets

[solid hinge]

The rifles on assault class kills enemies slower

[teal phoenix]

Only difference I saw was everyone was only using one of three weapons

[coral fiber]

5.2 literally moved me towards vehicles than infantry

[orchid arch]

2-3 shot wdym

[solid hinge]

Nope 3-4 shots

[coral fiber]

If not more

[orchid arch]

just tap fast 4head

[coral fiber]

You can't

[solid hinge]

I play on console bruh

[coral fiber]

5.2 reduced the rof

[orchid arch]

same

just move and shoot

[solid hinge]

Plus it really makes the game more arcadey than it's already is

[orchid arch]

or snipe

[solid hinge]

Ruins people with skills

Ttk change only determines who shoot fast not who can control the gun well

[orchid arch]

excatly

[solid hinge]

And that's awful

[orchid arch]

shoot fast

[solid hinge]

So what do you guys think.. I've not yet read the full posts on the updates.. Will it be very similar to how it was before this shitstorm started?

[orchid arch]

sorta

[queen canopy]

Yes

[orchid arch]

not a full reverse

[queen canopy]

There’s no patchnotes yet

Fully

[solid hinge]

ah

[orchid arch]

yea

[solid hinge]

i see

[queen canopy]

There’s a sneak peek but it comes out tomorrow

[orchid arch]

we are getting tank stuff

[queen canopy]

^

[orchid arch]

which looks very nice

putting leafs on every thing

[queen canopy]

Salad Tank

[solid hinge]

well i'm looking forward to trying it out.. I'm afraid it won't please the community. But at least DICE is addressing it, but they have taken to long time in my oppinion

[brave garnet]

Tank stuff?

[orchid arch]

flora changes with the enviroment

or something

[solid hinge]

A feature that has been "cooming soon" for two years..

[queen canopy]

@solid hinge they’ve already stated it’s pretty much a full revert with a few changes

[solid hinge]

I hope that is the case in reality as well.

[orchid arch]

wdym?

[queen canopy]

^

[orchid arch]

they should buff the kar98k a bit

[queen canopy]

They’re not gonna tell us one thing in the notes then give us the opposite

Bolties are getting velocity increases

[orchid arch]

yea

maybe tad more range

[solid hinge]

They’re not gonna tell us one thing in the notes then give us the opposite
@queen canopy

[brave garnet]

No

[orchid arch]

yes

[brave garnet]

no

[solid hinge]

I kinda feel they have done just that these couple of months.

[orchid arch]

ur mad cuz u die from snipers

[robust mango]

I will stick beside my thoughts on bolt actions

[brave garnet]

No

I die from tanks

[solid hinge]

But i'm waiting to be happily suprised by what the come with. 🙂

[orchid arch]

then go assault

[brave garnet]

Nah

[robust mango]

my thoughts will always be we should have a specialization for bolt actions that remove all their hip fire accuracy and have them be stationary to get a 1 shot kill chest and up for like 80 meters and if they dont want to do that have it just be the 2 shot kill at range and 1 shot to the head

[orchid arch]

yes

yes

agreed

[brave garnet]

Id rather slowly torture them with the repair tool

[robust mango]

since the AT gun does this

the AT gun is the best sniper in the game

because it kills in 1 shot

[orchid arch]

yea

[robust mango]

like all bolt actions should

[orchid arch]

cuz it kills tanks

[robust mango]

otherwise we will only see ZH, and selbstadler

[orchid arch]

[robust mango]

or the Karbiner

because its a self loading rifle

[orchid arch]

ZH anit a sniper

[robust mango]

doesn't even feel like a sniper at that point

doesnt matter

recon use it as one

[queen canopy]

SLRs are wack

[robust mango]

and they spam the fuck out of it because they know its good

and bolt actions are weak as shit in this game

[orchid arch]

its cheese

[robust mango]

BF1 had sweet spot where bolt actions could kill in 1 shot

at a certain range

[orchid arch]

martini herny

[robust mango]

that was exactly how they should do it

[orchid arch]

well yes and no

1 shot to like 80m

[robust mango]

recon is such a tiresome role

[orchid arch]

past that 2

[robust mango]

too many people like to be snipers and only a small percentage of them actually get kills and help the team

[orchid arch]

headshots insta kill

[robust mango]

barely anyone gets a headshot with a normal sniper in this game

unless the person is completely stationary

[orchid arch]

use a scope and kill people who dont move

or lead shots

[robust mango]

barely anyone will get a headshot on someone sprinting

yea

[queen canopy]

I didn’t like recon in BF1 and I still don’t like it now

[robust mango]

this game doesn't have a need for using weapons that are stationary

[queen canopy]

Bolties just don’t fit me

[orchid arch]

u aim for centre mass when they sprinting

[robust mango]

i would say "yes snipers are good versus MMGs and such"

too bad that nobody uses a MMG

because the lewis gun is the best MG in the game

and they can use that on the move

[orchid arch]

i only see the KE7

[robust mango]

the Ke7 is a worse lewis gun

because no 97 round mag

[orchid arch]

or the type 11

[robust mango]

type 11 is new

so people are using it

[orchid arch]

a lot

[robust mango]

they want the specializations for it

[orchid arch]

its not that good

[robust mango]

to see if its worth it

it isnt

[queen canopy]

Yeah the Type 11 is so meh

[robust mango]

they go back to using the lewis gun

the m2 is also really meh

[orchid arch]

lmao

[queen canopy]

True

[orchid arch]

its ok

[robust mango]

the m2 carbine is super mediocre

[queen canopy]

M2 hitmarks so much

[robust mango]

the STG 44 is what they will continuously fall back on

[orchid arch]

no duh

[queen canopy]

People only use it cuz it’s new and fast

I barely use the StG

[orchid arch]

people will take speed over dmg

same

[solid hinge]

G-43 hitmarks too much

[orchid arch]

the what

[solid hinge]

Gewher

43

[orchid arch]

oh

im dum

[solid hinge]

You should know it

[orchid arch]

i do

maxed it

[solid hinge]

Yup

4 body shot

[orchid arch]

2 head

[robust mango]

Ag 43 does so much damage lmao

[solid hinge]

Facts

[orchid arch]

its gay

[robust mango]

its like a 2 shot kill

[orchid arch]

whatever

bye

[weak fog]

https://twitter.com/bmf_esports/status/1234560715710701569?s=21

[solid hinge]

Ewwwwwwwww

E-Sp rts

agm is a 4btk at every range

2btk if both are headshots

[queen canopy]

G-43 is a 3 shot

And accurate

And fun

[robust mango]

I wish the m1 carbine was like it was in 5.0

[queen canopy]

AG might be better statistically

[robust mango]

The carbine used to be so strong and fun

[queen canopy]

I really hope M1 makes a return to glory

Ye

Now it’s kinda weak

[robust mango]

Wasn’t it 3 shots to kill?

[queen canopy]

Hopefully it’s fixed Wednesday

[solid hinge]

M1 Carbine is not that strong anymore

[queen canopy]

Uhhh closer to 4-5

It fires a smaller cartridge

[solid hinge]

The handling and stability is way off

It was a 4btk but 4btk up to 50 metres

It has damage drop very fast currently

[brave garnet]

M2 carbine is amazing

[queen canopy]

It’s meh

Basically full auto M1 Carbine

Maybe it’ll get stronger

[solid hinge]

It's pretty damn weak currently

[queen canopy]

Fire rate mostly makes up for strength

But it’s still weak

[solid hinge]

The range is its disadvantage for M2 Carbine but u can change it to 1 shot each time

It's only slightly faster than the m1907 and it takes a whole extra 2 shots to kill someone

It's literally better at range than up close

If anything the advantage it has is the ability to full auto with pretty high accuracy

830rpm 6btk up close sucks but it has high accuracy

What do you think of the grease gun

It's good!

Kills pretty fast up close, has a long double headshot range, the suppressor is nice

[queen canopy]

Bit slow for my personal tastes but makes up for it in stopping power

[solid hinge]

It is very good close range i think it is suited for mid to close range

Any news on the day 6.2 comes out

Hope its tomorrow

Nope. It might come at Thursday or next week

[queen canopy]

@solid hinge patch notes tomorrow, patch release Wednesday

[solid hinge]

Yes that's perfect

A Wednesday where tons of work is inevitable

☹

[queen canopy]

I’d have work any day of the week

[solid hinge]

They should do it tomorrow with the patch notes that would be way better

[queen canopy]

Ehh

I’d rather have a day to look over the notes

I don’t really mind

[solid hinge]

I hope this is the last time the TTK does not change. It is perfect. For 3 months this trouble. EA+Dice knows no more stupid decisions

[queen canopy]

And also the more time they take to make sure everything is good the better

I do too

It’d just be stupid for whoever’s calling the shots to do this again

[solid hinge]

They said the fans asked for this. The community. We asked for where is the Tank Customisation not change the core weapon gameplay

[queen canopy]

Water under the bridge for me at this point

Other people threw a tantrum, I just kept enjoying the game

[solid hinge]

Imagine 6.2 still being trash

[queen canopy]

It probably won’t be

I really have faith here lul

There was a sneak peek of the stuff posted today

It looks pretty good so far

[solid hinge]

The stats for FG42 is 4-7 bullets to kill only different was 4-6 bullets.

[queen canopy]

Yeah there’s very slight changes to extreme range but other than that not really a ton of other changes

[solid hinge]

PVE was absolute trash with the TTK changes. The enemies is more stronger than u. Firestorm was effected the worse. It was hell in there

[queen canopy]

I honestly stopped caring about firestorm

Personally

Never really cared too much to begin with

[solid hinge]

[thorny hound]

can AT mines even kill planes anymore

[queen canopy]

Yes

If they’re on runways

[thorny hound]

i did it the other day and got 27 from 3 mines

[queen canopy]

Well idk then

Last I checked they did tho

[brave garnet]

A tank maybe

[thorny hound]

no it was a plane

[queen canopy]

Idk explosives and planes aren’t exactly mixing right now

[brave garnet]

Huh

[queen canopy]

Dusting is happening a lot so I wouldn’t be surprised

[solid hinge]

Imagine rush being in the game permanently

Pls Dice

[thorny hound]

imagine being able to kill planes

my spitfire got destroyed the other day by a JU-88 that pulled up behind me

i couldnt get away from him in a spitfire

[keen elm]

I legit don't know what to do with my life waiting for Wednesday to come

[solid hinge]

Get a job?

[queen canopy]

Marvin that would be your own fault

[keen elm]

I wouldn't be against that

Tbh

[queen canopy]

Just turning as tight as you can will outturn a Ju-88 easil

[keen elm]

Just, tied down

[queen canopy]

Or just pulling up through a loop

[solid hinge]

Like permanently declared unfit to work untill you want to yourself?

[keen elm]

Clingy parents

But is that any of your business?

Huh?

[solid hinge]

6.2 gets delayed until next week

lmao as soon as I turned 14 they forced me into a paper route and 2 years later into a job at my local cafe

[keen elm]

Sucks ig

[solid hinge]

it did at first

but then you get paid

and you realise you worked 5 days a week for less than a thousand euros

[queen canopy]

I work for my school lul

[icy sluice]

6.2's weapon adjustments were accidentally not included in the update

[queen canopy]

6.2 was accidentally not included in the 6.2 update

[solid hinge]

I did one of my internships at my school

basically watching The Walking Dead for 4 months and get paid to do so lol

[coral fiber]

Me when i see someone taking off on the runway

[solid hinge]

Drops mines/bombs

[balmy condor]

👀

[solid hinge]

Bang bang bang

[brave cypress]

Patch notes out yet?

[coral fiber]

@ktmbandit#4606 tomorrow

@brave cypress

Wtf

[brave garnet]

Wat

[brave cypress]

Aight thanks

[deep forge]

they should buff the type 2a

[brave garnet]

No

They should buff the liberator

[uneven hollow]

Yes with 101 rounds in the mag
And make it shoot 100 rof with 1 damage

[deep forge]

make it a 3 shot kill in medium to long range and a 1 shot kill in 20 meters

[brave garnet]

Hell nah

[deep forge]

ye

[brave garnet]

No

[deep forge]

ok

[brave garnet]

No

[deep forge]

ok

your right,no,they should make it a 1 shot kill in ANY range

150 round clip

[brave garnet]

1 rpm

[uneven hollow]

100 mag with 1 in the chamber and 1500 rof and 1 damage for the type 2a at any range

Stonks right there I’ll tell u

[thorny hound]

1 with headshot

[robust mango]

glad i successfully made people mad on BF reddit

all i had to do was tell someone to stop complaining about the 2A

[brave coral]

nice

[gray glade]

the BFV reddit folks have 0 chill

[brave coral]

@gray glade they use Reddit as a platform for discussion

what do you expect

[gray glade]

i expect ppl to occasionally be open for discussion

which they usually are not 🙂

like that dude that was telling ppl that they should uninstall the game, because it's the only way DICE can see that ppl are unhappy

[brave coral]

they don’t even see how many people have it installed lmao

[gray glade]

i responded basically that some of us just wanna have fun and don't take the game too seriously, like play the game occasionally

[brave coral]

just sales and player numbers based on server activity

[gray glade]

he said i was having delusions 😄

[brave coral]

they’re so close to being self aware

but like

how do you unironically edit a propaganda poster to complain about something in a video game and genuinely not see any issue with it

[solid hinge]

e-eh

[brave coral]

even ironically it’s pretty bad

[icy sluice]

Creating your own by drawing it or whatever, I can see...

But editing an actual propaganda poster made by... ya know, actual military artists back then is kinda... edgy

[brave coral]

yeah

if it was just a high effort shitpost with a level of self awareness then i can respect it

but this was a genuine ‘TTK bad’ post

[little raptor]

i think Wake Island is currently my most hated map

its just completely ruined by plane spotting

[brave coral]

they need to do something about plane flares

[little raptor]

Wake Island especially is single handidly ruined by it

there isn't anything worse about that map right now

[brave coral]

it should be a relatively easy fix - at least from a design perspective

just make them drop to idk 75m above the ground before they deploy the parachute and start spotting

[solid hinge]

they're just not visible

[brave coral]

and make the duration a bit shorter

[solid hinge]

you can hit them high up if you can actually see them

but they blend in with the sky

i swear to god they did something a couple patches ago that increased the opacity of flares

i remember them being redder

[brave coral]

they’re a pain to hit sometimes even if you can spot them if they’re at the upper levels of flight

[solid hinge]

if they're right at the top yeah fuck that

Shoot this flare that's so high up the AA cant reach

🥴

Make enemy flares appear on the map

😀

[brave coral]

i think the issues can be summed up as
• difficult to actually see
• difficult to actually hit if you do see it
• last way too long
• there’s two of them?

[icy sluice]

Planes do drop two flares, yes

[brave coral]

visibility and destruction of them becomes a lot more manageable when you implement a max altitude for them to fall to before they ‘activate’

which in turn makes the other two much more manageable because you can see and shoot them

[coral fiber]

I have no issues of seeing people from planes

At least from my pov

[icy sluice]

I have no issues seeing you

[coral fiber]

😳

Tbh flare spam has always been a thing
Just imagine in previous bf's where you've been spotted and never realized it until they added the indicator

I feel like planes should drop 1 flare

1 flare is enough to cover an obj

[uneven hollow]

I know what we need

The flare flash thingy from bf1

[icy sluice]

That'd be cool tbh

[uneven hollow]

To blind the Americans and do banzais.

[coral fiber]

Wasn't that part of that double barrel flare gun for the 5v5 game mode?

Or am i wrong?

[uneven hollow]

I think that just the flare gun but sticky

[icy sluice]

That Flash Flare was actually really effective in BF1 but no one used it

[uneven hollow]

Because flares do flash but not as flashy as the flare flash

[coral fiber]

Flare Flash

[gray glade]

flash! ooooooh

saviour of the universe

[icy sluice]

The Flare Flash does not have as much flash as the flash flare flashes as a flare.

:p

[uneven hollow]

The flash flare flash needs to be extra flashy so the flare flash flare needs to blind thy enemy with the flash while executing thy banzai with the flash flare flash thingy

[icy sluice]

We're being really stupid making tongue twisters :p

[uneven hollow]

But yet it’s enjoyable

[coral fiber]

When you're just minding your own business but you hear a bush speak Japanese and it gets excited because a long pole starts protruding

gets boomed on

[icy sluice]

I do wanna post a clip from earlier today :v

[brave garnet]

Then doit

[icy sluice]

https://streamable.com/xqs7r

[tight rain]

Is there a way to turn just the minimap off in bfV?

[icy sluice]

I don't know?

[uneven hollow]

In ww2 The Japanese did had a flash gadget tho right

[brave coral]

there might be a blinding flare alt fire function for that double barrel flare gun we’re supposedly getting this chapter

[uneven hollow]

Because all I remember in cod waw is that one Japanese mission the Japanese ambushes the Americans with a flash (thingy) and that’s all I know idk what’s it called ( idek if it’s a real thing or not)

[brave coral]

it’s relatively easy to make a rudimentary flashbang i would imagine

basically just make something that will quickly ignite some phosphorus or magnesium and boom you’ve got a very bright light

[uneven hollow]

I mean it would be nice they introduced us to a Japanese blind gadget thingy

[brave coral]

a flashbang grenade could be cool

[solid hinge]

me constantly flashbanging in operation underground with my type 2a

[uneven hollow]

I mean

Scouts would be better to have it

[main grove]

The flares got adjusted to appear as the preferred team colours in the options @solid hinge

[solid hinge]

scout and medic duo

[main grove]

That probably made them change their redness

[solid hinge]

flashbangs would be awful in heavy cqc maps

i can already hear the screams

[uneven hollow]

But would be nice if flash was only for scouts.

[main grove]

I haven’t actually messed with that yet

I want to see what purple flares look like

[uneven hollow]

It’s helpful I could tell u that much

Knowing which is which flare is from enemy or freindly

[brave coral]

flash wouldn’t really make sense on Recon though

[solid hinge]

maybe flares could have a noticeable color in bright skies like narvik

[main grove]

Assault needs a gadget that is more than “thing that goes boom”

[solid hinge]

so you can actually shoot them down instead of spending 10 minutes looking for it

[brave coral]

since unless you’re using a pistol carbine you’re mostly going to be at a little bit of range

[uneven hollow]

But the scouts had it on bf1

So why not bfv

[solid hinge]

they didn't have flashbangs what

[brave coral]

they had a blinding flare

not a flashbang

[uneven hollow]

No the flash flares ^

[solid hinge]

[brave coral]

flashbang would make most sense as an all class throwable honestly

tbh all throwables should be all class except maybe throwing knives

[solid hinge]

throwing knives are amazing to use

especially getting headshots with them

[uneven hollow]

More grenade types would be nice

[brave coral]

actually maybe not the AT bundle as well

[solid hinge]

[brave coral]

just give every class frags, smokes (perhaps only one for Assault and Support?), incendiary, sticky, impact and potentially flashbang

Assault i guess keeps the AT bundle exclusively and Recon keeps knives

[solid hinge]

light anti tank grenade

light anti tank grenade

bring that back

[brave coral]

Medic and Recon do need some reliable way of dealing consistent damage to tanks that isn’t a primary

[solid hinge]

preferably enough to get them to bugger off

[uneven hollow]

2 grenade is a must

[brave coral]

they don’t need complete tank killing load outs, but you literally can’t damage armour as either class unless you equip the M28 Tromboncino or an AMR

[solid hinge]

the trombone isnt even that bad of a gun tbh

[brave coral]

yeah

but i like playing SMG medic

[solid hinge]

it's the middle ground between a jungle and commando carbine with a decent grenade launcher

[brave coral]

and it’s not that great against armour

[solid hinge]

it's not designed for antiarmor use

it's just an anti-infrantry grenade

it's not even a 1 hit kill most of the time

[brave coral]

it’s marketed as a light anti armour function

or i guess general purpose

[uneven hollow]

Apparently in bf1 it’s called flare gun - blind and. The other is flare gun- spot

[brave coral]

medic and recon (especially medic) need some fortification-busing equipment as well

[uneven hollow]

Would prefer if medics could only build medic station

While supports can’t

[brave coral]

personally i’d quite like Medic to get a HE grenade launcher in the smoke launcher slot which can destroy forts and do a bit of damage to armour

@uneven hollow nah

[uneven hollow]

Understandable

[brave coral]

they’re already able to put down a mini one

if i’m backcapping a point with one other guy and there’s no friendly medics about i’d rather not be screwed bc there’s no constructed health station

[solid hinge]

Recently people have been using the STG44

[coral fiber]

It's the meta atm

Well until Wednesday when the TTK gets reverted

[brave garnet]

I do use the StG 44

I hipfire with it

[solid hinge]

One game was all StG 44 then the next was all snipers

[hybrid dragon]

@solid hinge Can you change your name to standard characters? So it's mentionable.

[brave coral]

tbf StG44 has always been popular

it’s a pretty easy to use, mid powered assault rifle

[solid hinge]

I will change my nickname so it is easier

Better now

[hybrid dragon]

Thx

[solid hinge]

Someone for some reason was using the Lewis gun

lewis gun isnt bad though

I hate myself

But it is out of date. An old gun. There is newer better guns

wdym by old

like old ingame?

[uneven hollow]

Well

Faction guns are wholesome

[raw orbit]

hol;y shit dude imagine downloading battlefront 2 only discover that that air vehicles farming infantry is even worse in this

only difference is theres 10 enemy planes instead of just 2

[solid hinge]

No one uses starfighters in BF2 lol besides a handful of people who can fly them and have more than 2 brain cells

You can actually get tons of points in some maps and the starfighters are so powerful that it's not even funny.

Being able to one shot tanks at their spawn and etc.

I dont even know how much damage double proton mines do with the damage star card but it's a shit load because I have killed tanks with a single proton mine shot.

[raw orbit]

er yeah basically my whole first game was just getting deleted over and over by "ApacheCantFly"

lmao

yeah this is a waste of my time

shouldve realised this would just be bf1 except every other player is a fucking elite

[viscid moon]

Its hacked

[raw orbit]

meaning?

[viscid moon]

This game is so hacked

Its not even fun anymore

[night glade]

The issue is that you're playing Galactic Assault

[viscid moon]

Hacker in every single server

[night glade]

Not only is Galactic Assault choke point galore, it also has starfighters farming infantry

Don't even bother with that mode

[raw orbit]

I'm guessing is there a gamemode where it's just infantry then or what

[night glade]

Supremacy, it's literally on the front page of the play menu

[raw orbit]

😛

[solid hinge]

discussing battlefront in battlefield

[raw orbit]

It's literally the same game

[night glade]

They moved Galactic Assault into the back so this wouldn't happen, people's first experience being Galactic Assault that is

[solid hinge]

look me in the eyes and tell me battlefront 2 is as anywhere as bad as battlefield 5

[raw orbit]

So what you're saying is their main mode is so bad they made it a side mode

[night glade]

They said if a player's first mode is Galactic Assault, they're more likely to quit after their first few games

Yes

[raw orbit]

Lol

[solid hinge]

[night glade]

It hasn't been the main mode in like 2 years

[raw orbit]

Well they were rigjt

[night glade]

Then people on Reddit threw a tantrum when they moved it out of sight

[solid hinge]

galactic assault just sounds like a normal game of battlefield 5

[raw orbit]

They made a good fucking choice for once tbh

It feels like a normal bf5 game but all the bad shit is 10x worse

[solid hinge]

you got the one hit kill planes (zeroes)

that farm infantry and vehicles

1000kg bombs or the 2x 500kg

[cold grotto]

Hey guyss

[fluid relic]

So a creativity mood

[solid hinge]

im not fond of supremacy

the ships are so fucking choke pointy

Battlefront was bad fir s long time too

[willow pebble]

Any info when will game get in playable state?

like actually allow u to join a fucking server and not give u ''failed to join server'' message every time u try to join?

Imagine not hot fixing an issue that doesnt allow players to fucking join a game?????????????????????

Since when did Dice become Indie studio?

[solid hinge]

Ever since EA is killing them

[novel blaze]

I got DISCONNECT ed again

2 kills from unlocking the gold

yes this happened twice on 18/20

[celest wagon]

ok guys

why do i always get put on the team that's losing by a mile lmao

just got put on a team that had one point left 😔

[tough lodge]

Kill 10 enemies from 50m away

I can finally complete my gold bar

[rotund beacon]

@celest wagon I have the same problem

[raw orbit]

yeah supremacy isnt really any better

just less planes and more elites

guess ill uninstall

😔

[rotund beacon]

I liked supremacy from swbf2015

More like frontlines

[celest wagon]

ye

[rotund beacon]

I’m not too fond of the 2017 game

[novel blaze]

i just want to do ny 20 kills while attacking an objective stop putting me on the defensive side

[raw orbit]

if only you could switch teams

[solid hinge]

@night glade I find GA much more fun than supremacy because I can play every hero

And because its more structured

^

locking the heroes to era feels really unbalanced

[rotund beacon]

But I like that

I don’t want Kylo and Rey running around on Naboo

[solid hinge]

like finn and yoda both have abilities that give their teammates extra health, while none of the dark side heroes do

so the light side almost always has a large advantage in choke points because their entire team has extra health

[strong parrot]

do you doubt the powa of the dark side?

[solid hinge]

I'd take it all back if emperor was every era

wait they nerfed him

[strong parrot]

dark side has chain lighting hitting enemies 50 feet away

[solid hinge]

no I wouldnt

[rotund beacon]

Bad

It made me sad

[solid hinge]

They NERFED him

They killed his dark aura swamp thing

that's like removing bombs from the mosquito

[strong parrot]

sounds good to me

[rotund beacon]

I don’t like how heroes can’t one shot troopers

[night glade]

Hitting them from the back one shots

[fluid relic]

I am new here

[rotund beacon]

It doesn’t really matter for cause I can’t ever get enough points to play a hero anyway

[severe jetty]

Are slugs good?

[solid hinge]

Half the heroes can one shot

Heroes are horrifically overpowered as is anyway

Slugs are pretty shit imo

[severe jetty]

lemme reword it

do slugs make shotguns not-shit

[solid hinge]

Oh no they make them worse

[severe jetty]

o h n o

[solid hinge]

[severe jetty]

sooo

No ohk upclose?

[solid hinge]

Still ohk up close but reduced range

[severe jetty]

blergh

[solid hinge]

Considering how small it is already..

[severe jetty]

Is the accuracy at least decent

I mean im guessing it has garbage bullet velocity

Im going to try out slugs tomorrow

My current complaints with using shotguns:

• BB’s disintegrate after traveling about 10 meters for some reason

• Spread is really high even for shotgun standards

In short its even pretty garbage in close range for me

Because i need to fire up to 3-4 shots to kill 1 enemy

1 enemy

using a shotgun

[rotund beacon]

Don’t do slugs. You get one shot

[solid hinge]

slugs can two shot up to like

30 metres or something

but that basically makes them shit versions of the SLRs

they have a higher headshot multiplier

is supposed to be their gimmick

[midnight nimbus]

> complaining about BFV shotgun consistency

when it uses one of the most consistent models in all of FPS

if you're within your OHK range and your center your crosshair on the enemy, they will always die

[solid hinge]

is ads necessary?

[midnight nimbus]

no

[icy sluice]

I'll be honest, I rage more with CoD's shotguns than I do with BFV's, BFV's is much more consistent.

[midnight nimbus]

the only developer with more consistent shotguns than DICE at this point is Treyarch

bc they have their fancy bonus dmg model

[icy sluice]

Sledgehammer isn't good at shotguns

tmw your pump shotgun is far better than the double barrels in damage AND range

[solid hinge]

I guess I can't aim

[rotund beacon]

Whoops wrong game

[strong parrot]

oh you talking slugs in bfv? thought you meant the swbf2 thing

[solid hinge]

ok but what happened here then

[strong parrot]

clearly low spm aim

[icy sluice]

Damnit, I tried replaying/pausing it and it brought me to some Minecraft video

[solid hinge]

Servers are down

Dice is so shitty 😂

[strong parrot]

ea handles servers

[solid hinge]

Well they are both shitty at least dice la

not to say im the pinnacle of aim or anything

but like

[rotund beacon]

I do that and I die

[solid hinge]

i couldnt see his body because it was covered in lead

and i got 0 damage from that shot

[rotund beacon]

WOW

[solid hinge]

https://youtu.be/xbZmsN82Sks

from this

like sure i believe the mechanics are consistent but like

what did i do there

was it so accurate that every single pellet missed because it wasnt smack dab in the middle

[strong parrot]

server lag

[solid hinge]

i think it actually was

cause the pellets go to the right of him

while i was aiming further to the left

like

come on man

[rotund beacon]

That might be issue. I move to fast for everyone

[solid hinge]

replaying it back it literally looks like it comes out of the right barrel and misses entirely

wtf man

[strong parrot]

sony 👏 hates 👏 you 👏

[solid hinge]

if you go frame by frame

i aim too far to the left

and the shot goes to the right

do i have to lead shots at fuckin 5 metre distances

RRRGHHGHGGRH

[novel blaze]

ah yes

campers returned

and mg low life'rs

[robust mango]

who knows for how long

[raw gyro]

I know people are not all ok with the way bfv is going with the gameplay bit you have to admit this game has a great OST

I've downloaded the soundtrack on my phone and listened to it daily ngl

[solid hinge]

anyone else’s having server problems ?

yes

DiCe WhAt r u doinG?

[obsidian hill]

Hi, is the server browser disabled in the trial version of Battlefield V? There is no "Advanced" option where you would have a server browser etc.

[celest wagon]

i just stopped playing but did they go down again?

[obsidian hill]

just "join game" and then you choose a mode, with automatch

[celest wagon]

idk i'm still connected

[marble phoenix]

Yeaaaa PSN not working for me

I lied it’s up

[solid hinge]

This shit is still down for me buts it’s only for some of us

[wind shale]

calling it now

servers get ddos'd on patch day

100%

[robust mango]

depends if they nerf planes or not

[crystal blaze]

Plane reinforcement

[solid hinge]

getting tank customization and not better servers

[robust mango]

No anti cheat changes

[wind shale]

[robust mango]

im just waiting for the patch notes at this point

[novel blaze]

i hate how all the lvl200s are back

[robust mango]

wdym

[zinc vine]

Anyone know why my bf4 emblem isn’t showing up when I play but I have it set in battlelog

[wind shale]

the best stuff is a full clan squad of 200+ level players

and all 4 are running gold 2a

those are the best players

[robust mango]

i never understood gold skins

i have gold on a few weapons and never use the cosmetics for it

i like the gun model just remaining the same tbh

tho i do kind of like using a Mint Thompson

[icy sluice]

Some gold parts can be mixed to look neat

[wind shale]

some of mine i run like half and half

so you get that polished wood and gold look

[solid hinge]

or just run a fully golded commando carbine to assert your dominance

[robust mango]

the only true weapon that should have a gold skin is the liberator

[solid hinge]

pistol skins when

[scenic beacon]

A good use of gold for once

[robust mango]

does anyone know why the liberator even exists in the game

[brave garnet]

Ok

So are servers down again?

[robust mango]

thats pretty based @scenic beacon

[solid hinge]

the same reason the kolibri was in bf1

a joke gun

@robust mango for fun and trolling probably

[robust mango]

ive never used the liberator, does it actually do anything useful

[solid hinge]

ive gotten a couple liberator kills but they were all stolen kills

it only does half damage so you target already hit enemies and ShaBang

[robust mango]

how much is a headshot at close range

[solid hinge]

Nah, both the liberator and the kolibri are technically useless in both games

not sure

[scenic beacon]

@robust mango like 66 ish

[solid hinge]

unless u get lucky

i get killed everytime i get close to an enemy

[robust mango]

LOL

66 with the liberator?

[solid hinge]

it's a joke gun like the kolibri

of course it does terrible danage

damage*

[robust mango]

i was expecting less tbh for that kind of gun

i wish we had the welrod

[scenic beacon]

It does 1911 damage I think

[solid hinge]

it's just a one shot gun with abysmal reload speed

you're better off just running around killing already damaged enemies with it

[wind shale]

boys at plus liberator

true chad class

[solid hinge]

the panzerdouche

[wind shale]

no

boys at

[obsidian hill]

Hi, is the server browser disabled in the trial version of Battlefield V? There is no "Advanced" option where you would have a server browser etc.

[robust mango]

im not sure actually

whats the best pistol in the game anyways

i kind of like the type 94

[wind shale]

mk revolver

def

one shot headshot in close range

[solid hinge]

model 27 is what i use

2 hit kill or insta head shot kill

[acoustic cipher]

Why tf are the ea servers down for bf1 and 4??

[solid hinge]

I still like the m1911 tbh

but yes I use the revolver too

[wind shale]

mk vi on every class

[solid hinge]

@robust mango Its not even a good meme gun

Its so bad you don't even laugh at how bad it is

its not supposed to be good

that's the point of a joke gun

Neither the Kolibri but you can actually use it and laughter at it.

kolibri barely dished out damage and the liberator has a hilariously slow reload spded

While the Liberator is just super bad

speed*

[robust mango]

LOL

[wind shale]

that feel when you actually have the urge to play bf

and you cant

smh my head

[solid hinge]

I feel you man

I can I want to but I I think it's better to just wait for 6.2 to come so that I can finally try sars and more mmgs etc. Since I wanted to try those but couldn't due to the damage dropoff they had . Only 2 days left in my timezone

webley would be the best pistol statistically

2btk 180rpm up to 12 metres, one shot headshots, 6 shots per mag

[robust mango]

do you guys think MMGs will be buffed

kind of tired of the lewis gun spam

[solid hinge]

i am glad the type 2a is getting a nerf

kinda tired of the operation underground type 2a spam

@robust mango they will be definitely in a better state when the patch drops, only difference with 5.0 is that they will require 1-2 more shots at range to kill instead of how it was in 5.2/5.2.2

[robust mango]

thats not too bad

do you think the velocity will go up

the .30 cal feels so slow

[solid hinge]

hey some of the mmgs are WAY better in 5.0

like the s2-200

[robust mango]

the s2 was pretty fun

and the browning felt more fun too

[solid hinge]

is the S2 even good

it has an abysmal magazine size for an mmg

[strong parrot]

ayyy fucking yay squad conq a tank kills me from 120m away because i cant touch him

[solid hinge]

In 5.0 it had the advantage of being incredibly accurate while having a fast fire rate

[strong parrot]

ayyy moron medic revives me next to an enemy

[solid hinge]

Small mag size but killed Fast at range with big accuracy and good reloads

In 5.2 that's wasted because the damage drops

[strong parrot]

god this teams fucking moronic....

lmao fucking actual morons here

i solo over half their team at B...sit on the cap myself....fucking 2 guys run onto it with me

then they fucking leave for NO REASON WERE CAPPING AND THE GAME IS ALMOST WON, then enemy finally comes onto the cap and kills me

so i just didnt respawn for the last 20 tickets...cant stand useless people like that

[solid hinge]

[strong parrot]

I joined the server and it was 6-8...then 7-7 after a couple minutes, YET WE WERE WINNING THE WHOL TIME, but at the end these morons dust off the victory for the enemy

[wind shale]

reminds me of a fun breakthrough game i had

err conq game on devestation

and we were up 30-20

held 3/5 points

[strong parrot]

hasnt played the game since last wednesday
servers out over weekend
attempt to play match monday
get through not even a full squad conquest before rage quitting

[wind shale]

legit 10 people run to a and get themselves killed by a tank instead of sitting still for no reason

and we lose

[icy sluice]

Some guy added me because I kept reviving them and their platoon. It kinda confused me

[wind shale]

the shit that annoys me a lot more than it should is like

when you have like 3 people sitting in a squad by themselves for no reason

or when you have two clanmates who lock the squad for just themselves the entire game

condense up people

[robust mango]

@strong parrot

that feel when you get downed in a trench after clearing it out

medic comes over

enemy sitting right next to me

doesnt shoot but he tries to pick me up instead

[wind shale]

nah dude

that but youre also spam pinging them

[robust mango]

yeah exactly

[wind shale]

idk why but na pc has been so bad recently

its like every squad im with is just all people below level 20

[robust mango]

how about when you pick up a teammate and then you get downed right after, the teammate kills the enemy but runs away and doesnt pick you up

[wind shale]

i need to find people to play with

lmao

its been driving me nuts

like i aint the best but at least make any attempt to work as a squad please

[robust mango]

i play with a few of my irl friends and some of my disc friends and thats the only way to stay sane

sometimes i play matches by myself with randos but usually only 1 rando is in our squad at a time

[wind shale]

ye i just need to find people

it feels like everyone in here is on console lmao

[solid hinge]

squad with the boys

[robust mango]

i find that sometimes like randoms can be good and other times you get the recon rando that does nothing or the pilot rando that has squad lead and we rack up 80K points and he calls in nothing

[wind shale]

i was that guy yesterday

had like 50k points at the end of the match we were losing

[robust mango]

LOL

[wind shale]

and i couldnt call anything in because i kept dying

[robust mango]

you son of a bitch

[solid hinge]

hand over your breathing privileges @wind shale

[wind shale]

like legit spawn and dead to tank

i got that fun v1 bug yesterday

where it instead calls it in at a random spot

instead of where you aim

[solid hinge]

how do british keep getting sturmtigers on hamada

[wind shale]

and yes @solid hinge i was very ashamed

i stole a sturmtiger on breakthrough def rotterdam

from some poor level 15

thres def a lot of new players rn

doing new player things

[icy sluice]

Gonna be honest, weird seeing a level 0 wearing burnt playing Squad Conquest

[uneven hollow]

They should know by know that if one is in a sturmtiger one must die in a stormtiger

[solid hinge]

always die with your vehicle

i hate dogfighting and my opponent just bails out of his plane

denying the kill is the most douchebag move ever

[crystal blaze]

I ditched my tank and set at mines nearby

Some idiot stole it and died

[uneven hollow]

Evil but yet effective

[crystal blaze]

I only left my tank because i got in a unepic situation

[sinful barn]

I think bf1 servers are down in texas

[leaden tapir]

@sinful barn BF5 is also down and I'm in TX

[sinful barn]

Hum didn't know that but I'm just not happy that the servers for good battlefield games aren't working

Guess I'm hoping on rainbow six

[uneven hollow]

Is the following Tow gonna be another tier skip

[crystal blaze]

For a few weeks in a row @uneven hollow

[sterile current]

We MMG hip fire sweat lords a are back in business on Wednesday.

[solid hinge]

texas servers dead

[crystal blaze]

Uh oh

[uneven hollow]

Noice finally 3 streaks of tier skips now let’s try to get 5 tier skips in a row

[sterile current]

Fear me and my MG-42.

[crystal blaze]

I think its gonna be 7 in a row in total

[solid hinge]

shitty cosmetics or tier skips

[sterile current]

People forget horizontal recoil= Better accuracy for an MMG while standing.

[uneven hollow]

Well shitty weapon or outfits

[sterile current]

So yeah, we’re back.

[uneven hollow]

Because if anything I prefer more outfits

Than just tier skips

[crystal blaze]

I want a melee from tow challenges

[solid hinge]

[uneven hollow]

And weapon skins aren’t needed for tow

I mean melee is alright

[crystal blaze]

So how many weeks are left in the chapter

[solid hinge]

not enough

[crystal blaze]

Not enough for what

Free 100 boins for every tier skip if you are already at rank 40 for the chapter

I guess no boins for me

[fleet bloom]

WOOOOO patch day tomorrow

[crystal blaze]

Yes

[thorny hound]

not in america

[solid hinge]

🇩🇪

[zinc vine]

Bf4 emblems broke

[prime pine]

Patch notes though

[uneven hollow]

Tbh we should have gotten boins instead of tier skips

[wind shale]

mmg prone noobs coming back

hello free headshots once again

[icy sluice]

Patch notes tomorrow... oh wait you're in OCE, you're 'ahead' of everyone
