#

he rounds are dumb

queen canopy
#

Would’ve been better if we had more planes

wind shale
#

should have to sacrifice more for them

solid hinge
#

Lol

queen canopy
#

As in a dedicated fighter and dedicated bomber

#

Not more spawns lul

wind shale
#

funny thing is

#

back in bf4

solid hinge
#

Yeah would’ve been better if the FF gets buffed

#

But i mean trying to kill someone for 21 mins and failing

wind shale
#

planes werent super designed to kill ground targets

solid hinge
#

Is quite amazing

queen canopy
#

FF is fine as is

solid hinge
wind shale
#

helis were for infantry farming

queen canopy
#

People just can’t aim

solid hinge
#

no

stoic breach
#

Remember when FF got nerfed cause pilots kept complaining

solid hinge
#

Lmao

queen canopy
#

90 damage almost instantaneously with 600m range?

#

That does not need a buff

solid hinge
#

@queen canopy 450 m

#

I think

#

Buff it just to make pilots salty

wind shale
#

planes are in decent spot

queen canopy
#

Buff it to specifically tick off a portion of the player base

wind shale
#

tanks are more of an issue

#

if you ask me

stoic breach
#

Well the entire point of the FF was to stop planes from dominating all the time

wind shale
#

made of paper when up close

#

made of solid rock when far away

solid hinge
#

Doesn’t help now does it?

queen canopy
#

Which they do

solid hinge
#

The real problem lf the ff

queen canopy
#

People just don’t run it

solid hinge
#

Is that is bugged

stoic breach
#

Well yeah cause you have to give up an AT launcher

wind shale
#

best feeling

#

is on fjell

#

playing assault

solid hinge
#

When u hit planes from behind the hits dont register

stoic breach
#

Which sucks cause you're dealing with tanks and infantry more than planes

wind shale
#

instagibbing fighters with a fleiger salvo

queen canopy
#

Infantry shouldn’t be able to counter both tanks and planes effectively

#

That’s my problem

wind shale
#

yeah theyve never been able to

#

in bf4 at least

stoic breach
#

They should be able to do exactly that

queen canopy
#

So many people want infantry to be able to kill everything

#

The whole point of infantry is weak in single, but strong in numbers

stoic breach
#

Battlefield is entirely infantry getting ganged by vehicles

queen canopy
#

This is battlefield, isn’t team play supposed to be a thing?

wind shale
#

i mean i get the team play thing but

queen canopy
#

Now everyone wants infantry to just be able to delete everything solo

wind shale
#

vehicles can get away with far less team play then infantry can

solid hinge
#

Team play with randoms lmao

stoic breach
#

"Team play" gets thrown alot to justify clan stacking and zerging

queen canopy
#

Because they’re vehicles

stoic breach
#

Thats not teamplay, thats just zerging

queen canopy
#

They’re supposed to be a threat

#

Otherwise what’s the point

wind shale
#

just because you pick a vehicle doesnt mean you get unlimited agency over the game

#

that being said

#

i think vehicles are mostly alright

queen canopy
#

And in its current state, no vehicle can do that

stoic breach
#

Vehicles should be strong, infantry just also needs to be strong

wind shale
#

the way they designed it for this game left them with a balancing nightmare

queen canopy
#

Which is the case @stoic breach

wind shale
#

slow tanks are super hard to balance properly

solid hinge
#

Camping tanks got nerfed

stoic breach
#

Like, I wouldnt mind seeing tanks getting buffed further as long as infantry AT got buffed as well

wind shale
#

tanks got buffed this patch

#

a ton of tank guns got their blast radius buffed

stoic breach
#

Blast radius

solid hinge
#

The velocity of the shell is way lower

stoic breach
#

And not movement speed/acceleration

#

Right

solid hinge
#

If they nerf them again they will be fine imo

wind shale
#

trying to think what tanks ive played this patch

#

i think ive only used the 38t actually

queen canopy
#

I got two shotted by a tiger while in a staghound earlier

solid hinge
#

All the velocity got neferd for he founds

queen canopy
#

Was sad

wind shale
#

gun carrier

#

can 2 hit tanks

#

its nutty

queen canopy
#

Rocket velocity got buffed hard too

#

On airplanes

wind shale
#

the real issue with vehicles honestly

#

they went about it all wrong

#

being able to choose any vehicle type instead of dedicated spawn slots

#

a very narrow range of anti vehicle gadgets

queen canopy
#

Make vehicles kill streaks

wind shale
#

assault actually has strong guns as the tank killer class

queen canopy
#

Ok yeah AA tanks shouldn’t be able to be spawned on maps without planes

wind shale
#

when before they just had carbines

queen canopy
#

It’s dumb

wind shale
#

so now you have more assault players

#

so more people who can murder tanks at range

#

so tanks have to be stronger

queen canopy
#

Yeah my big problem is that assault is such an end all be all right now

wind shale
#

assault shouldnt have had the guns it has

#

the game shouldve swapped assault and medic weapons

queen canopy
#

Close range, mid range, long range, AT, and AA can all be dealt with as assault

wind shale
#

like how it was in bf4

#

problem is

#

with infinite healing and attrition

#

medic cant have op guns

#

or it ruins the game

solid hinge
#

@tawny spear the missing part in the muzzle is sexy

stoic breach
#

@wind shale yeah, Assault shouldve definitely had SMGs

wind shale
#

they screwed themselves hard

solid hinge
#

That floating muzzle is so hot

wind shale
#

thats how it was in bf4

#

well now smgs

queen canopy
#

Medics and semi autos again

wind shale
#

not*

queen canopy
#

God please

wind shale
#

smg/pdws were for every class in bf4

queen canopy
#

That was painful

wind shale
#

engineer had carbines and at

stoic breach
#

I guess it would be better if assault was medic again

#

And if all classes had good AT

wind shale
#

and medic had assault rifles

solid hinge
#

Medics w smgs revive more

stoic breach
#

Again like in BF4

wind shale
#

im still salty

#

that recon has hardly any flanking weapon options

#

that was the whole reason i used to play recon

solid hinge
#

Assault has guns that are good in any situation

wind shale
#

now youre limited to two

queen canopy
#

Pistol carbines

wind shale
#

before you had the entire list of pdws

solid hinge
#

So u will never see a match wout assault players

queen canopy
#

I haven’t used those in a while though

wind shale
#

like 10-12 guns

#

trench is actually legit on this patch

#

sad thing is

#

it has a better damage model then every single smg

queen canopy
#

Assault is also good against both tanks AND planes now

wind shale
#

to be fair it only has 360 rpm but still

solid hinge
#

The bazooka is a 1htk

stoic breach
#

Doesnt it have 450rpm

solid hinge
#

Is better than the ff imo

stoic breach
#

Or did they nerf that again

wind shale
#

nope

queen canopy
#

Ehh

wind shale
#

thats the grease

queen canopy
#

FF is more consistent as an AA

wind shale
#

trench is 3btk below 10m

queen canopy
#

For obvious reasons

wind shale
#

caps at 8 at 100m

stoic breach
#

But it was 450rpm in 5.2, that was like the only good thing about it

solid hinge
#

@queen canopyu will never kill a plane w the ff if they know what they are doing

stoic breach
#

Damn it

wind shale
#

it has hilariously forgiving damage drop off now

solid hinge
#

Since noone uses it

queen canopy
#

Because it only deals 90 damage

stoic breach
#

Why are DICE such pussies about weapon balance

queen canopy
#

Also, since theoretically every infantry could run it, making it a one hit would just be stupid

stoic breach
#

450rpm was so good for carbines

solid hinge
#

The bazooka can 1htk those noob bombers

wind shale
#

assault back to being the jesus class

queen canopy
#

As a gadget, it should be a strong deterrent, but not the end all be all, leaving that role to emplacements, tanks, or other planes

wind shale
#

medic guns that arent rapidfire smgs need a serious buff

#

same with lmgs

#

er bolt action carbines dont really need a buff

solid hinge
#

Lmgs are good

queen canopy
#

And right now it fills that role of strong deterrent

#

I had some fun with the MG-34 earlier

wind shale
#

but emp/mp40 etc arent in a good spot

queen canopy
#

Held the fuckin line against some tommies

solid hinge
#

Emp is fine

wind shale
#

lmgs just feel terribler

#

when compared to semis

queen canopy
#

EMP is nice

solid hinge
#

But they should have more range

#

Imo

queen canopy
#

ZK was surprisingly fun

wind shale
#

the rapid fire smgs

solid hinge
#

Zk is kinda useless

queen canopy
#

It’s good up close

wind shale
#

and the emp/mp40/sten etc

#

have the exact same damage model

queen canopy
#

And has a bipod which is usable

solid hinge
#

The non rapid rof

#

I mean

queen canopy
#

Oh

#

Yeah

stoic breach
#

Same damage models are good

wind shale
#

i get it but

stoic breach
#

Spread is what determines accuracy

#

And range

wind shale
#

idk

solid hinge
#

The zk is the most versatile smg

wind shale
#

support does need some kind of buff

#

at the very least

queen canopy
#

Idk

wind shale
#

slrs i would be fine if they were just removed from the game

queen canopy
#

Maybe bipod accuracy should be a bit better?

solid hinge
#

The mp28 is good but nobody uses if

queen canopy
#

That’s one thing I noticed this patch

wind shale
#

nothing makes me more angry to die to

#

probably

#

i was shocked how much kick the mg42 has while bipodded

queen canopy
#

Bipod are still really immacurate

#

Ok MG-42 kick I get

solid hinge
#

@wind shale just the zh maybe

wind shale
#

zh and 1906 both need it

solid hinge
#

All the others are fine

queen canopy
#

But like the MG-34 can still be hard to control sometimes

solid hinge
#

The 1906 is my most used gun

wind shale
#

yeah mg42 probably needs it

#

browning is low recoil at least

stoic breach
#

The SLRs still could be stronger imo

#

All the weapons could be way better

wind shale
#

i still have not died to like half the support weapons

#

nah slrs definitely do not need a buff

stoic breach
#

Their recoil decrease takes slightly too long so you lose a few milliseconds of control every time you fire, it would be better if recoil decrease was faster but they had more recoil to compensate

wind shale
#

like why do the zh and 1906

solid hinge
#

Half of the lmgs are not used cuz they are skilled weapons

wind shale
#

get 760 ms velocity

stoic breach
#

So they were alot snappier

solid hinge
#

Amd 80% of the ppl use the lewis

wind shale
#

before high velocity bullets

stoic breach
#

Cause they're good snipers

wind shale
#

theyre hilariously east to use for how effective they are at range

stoic breach
#

Getting killed by weapons at range is usually more indicative of the map

wind shale
#

snipers are balanced because they arent easy to use

stoic breach
#

Which is really shit

wind shale
#

each lobby already has enough recon players

stoic breach
#

If automatics can be easy up close, SARs can be easy at midrange, why cant snipers be easy at range

#

And if theres too much range everywhere, thats a map design problem

wind shale
#

because their effective range is significantly longer

solid hinge
#

Sniping has been a meme since they took away 1HK weapons

#

well except shotguns of course

#

the maximum skill weapon

stoic breach
#

Yeah, thats why the whole "damage dropoff" thing really sucks

solid hinge
#

Snipers should do more damage at extreme ranges because the bullet tumbles

midnight needle
#

Hello kiddies

stoic breach
#

The latest TTK update is super half baked because you get 5.0 recoil with worse damage dropoff

#

So you just get inconsistent ranged damage

solid hinge
#

The 1906 and the zh shouldn t have the same rof of the 5.0 imo

stoic breach
#

Making the SLRs more appealing still for consistent ranged damage

wind shale
#

im just glad they arent as popular as they probably should be

#

game would suck so much

solid hinge
#

They are hard to use

#

Specially the 1906

midnight needle
#

I’ve actually seen more people use ZH as of late..

solid hinge
#

The zh is kinda a noob cannon in some cases

wind shale
#

id take extra bullet kick for higher ranged damage

#

any day

midnight needle
#

It’s kinda bullshit at a certain range cause you can’t react. By the time you get hit by the first bullet the second is like a quarter of a second behind

wind shale
#

like

#

why does the zh and 1906

stoic breach
#

"Noob weapons" or easy to use weapons arent a problem

wind shale
#

have more velocity then the gewer 95

#

or the ross

#

or type 99

#

makes no sense

solid hinge
#

10m/s more

stoic breach
#

Cause the SLRs are good snipers

#

The bolt actions were balanced as meme "skill" weapons

main grove
#

SLRs are far more easy to use than bolts

stoic breach
#

So you can basically ignore them if you want to be a competitive player

midnight needle
#

I prefer bolts

main grove
#

Bolts still need a big buff of some kind

solid hinge
#

1906 is a semiWeSmart

main grove
#

I want sweet spot back

wind shale
#

bolts are in a good spot

stoic breach
#

Yeah same

wind shale
#

sweet spot was dumb

midnight needle
#

Eh

wind shale
#

no thanks

main grove
#

I actually liked that in BF1

midnight needle
#

I feel like the Anti tank cannons need a nerf....

main grove
#

Sweet spot made bolts not a fucking joke like they are now

midnight needle
#

Against infantry

wind shale
#

their fire rate and velocity is ass

stoic breach
#

Sniping should be easy at range, balanced by map design, suppression and extremely high visibility for scope glint

wind shale
#

like horrendously bad

main grove
#

Bolts were actually taken seriously in BF1

wind shale
#

supression was also annoying

stoic breach
#

Suppression was necessary for balancing sweet spot

midnight needle
#

90% of the weapons in BF 1 WERE bolts for like two years

stoic breach
#

You could suppress snipers and throw them off

main grove
#

I kinda want suppression to have more of an effect again

#

It would make MMGs more valuable

solid hinge
#

B4 ttk snipers were quite op

wind shale
#

b4 also had 40x zoom scopes

#

and you could sit 1000m away

solid hinge
#

After the ttk change they were fine

stoic breach
#

The lack of viable suppression in BFV gives every player the impression they can just stand around in the open and just not be in danger

main grove
#

BF4 snipers had shitty velocity

stoic breach
#

Especially medics

#

BF4 snipers were so fucking bad

#

Idk why anyone takes them seriously

wind shale
#

yeah they werent great

#

just annoying to die to someone 1000m away in spawn that you couldnt do anything about

solid hinge
#

I dont get why the grease gun fells so good when it isnt

wind shale
#

like mmgs were never op in bfv

#

just not super fun to play against

solid hinge
#

Mmgs in some maps

#

Are broken

stoic breach
#

Grease gun is pretty good

wind shale
#

yeah the grease is good

#

its just not easy to use

#

much less room for error

stoic breach
#

Yeah, MMGs were never OP, I agree

#

But the fact that you cant see when people use them is annoying

solid hinge
#

Mmgs in underground

wind shale
#

yeah

#

flash hider shouldnt exist

solid hinge
#

Are just broken

stoic breach
#

And that you have to bipod or sit still to use them

#

Encourages camping

solid hinge
#

U get 80+ kills

#

Doing nothing

wind shale
#

thats why i was honestly alright with the spotting changes

#

you get punished for sitting still and never moving

#

although im biased because i was a medic 1trick for a very long time

main grove
#

Spotting needs to be fully overhauled

#

Like how it is applied

#

And how to counter it

#

And how to weaken it

solid hinge
#

I d like to see a 3rd spotting like in bf1 that only applies to non moving eneimies

wind shale
#

supression spotting is fine

stoic breach
#

Well that ADS spotting thing only applied to you

solid hinge
#

It would even make sense

stoic breach
#

Suppression spotting is nice but it shouldnt be the only way to spot people

#

And if more weapons could properly use it

wind shale
#

spotting with flares and stuff is also worse then 5.0

#

now the game just tells you about it

stoic breach
#

Thats a good thing

main grove
#

A spot shouldn’t be instant but it should take like a second or two to apply

wind shale
#

the real thing i despise

#

is being spotted indoors

#

from a flare

main grove
#

That’s what I think it should have been like back in older BFs

solid hinge
#

Flares are cancer

wind shale
#

i dont mind it that much

novel blaze
#

spam r2 in bf4

main grove
#

BF1 flares were far worse than BF5 flares

wind shale
#

since people dont bother to look at their minimaps half the time anyways

stoic breach
#

Flares are nice but theres not really a great counter to them

main grove
#

They were indestructible

novel blaze
#

yes i prefer l1/r1 to aim/shoot

stoic breach
#

And "shoot the flare" doesnt apply when you're indoors and the flare is outdoors

solid hinge
#

When u flank

main grove
#

And could be used in the ground

atomic vapor
#

does anyone play bf1?

solid hinge
#

And a flare kills u

wind shale
#

indoor spotting is a problem

main grove
#

Flares should spot people in line of sight of the flare

stoic breach
#

Indoor spotting is pretty nice though

wind shale
#

hell or getting spotted while literally underground

stoic breach
#

Spot house, find camper

#

Its real nice

main grove
#

Making spotting flares still work indoors

wind shale
#

part of me doesnt like it but

#

part of me doesnt care

solid hinge
#

when you see "you are spotted" you instantly die

wind shale
#

fuck you corner campers

solid hinge
wind shale
#

thats the nice thing about playing grind

#

its like therapy

stoic breach
#

What the game needs is more counter-intel

wind shale
#

you get to spray oblivious corner campers in the back

main grove
#

The game should tell you what is actually spotting you

#

Be it flare or scope

#

Or suppression

wind shale
#

nobody uses scopes

stoic breach
#

Like if recon got a radar jammer that messed with spot flares

solid hinge
#

"corner camping" is the salt name for a strategic tactical location

wind shale
#

theres a difference between running and hiding in a corner for cover or to hide/reload/heal etc

#

or the level 10s who literally sit in a corner and never move

stoic breach
#

I think every playstyle should be viable, just not really encouraged equally

solid hinge
#

if you dont think im gonna use the MG42s rate of fire to my advantage and completely deny the enemy from pushing into the next room youre gay

wind shale
#

i mean

#

thats what your gun does

main grove
wind shale
#

not like you can do much else

solid hinge
#

strategic tactical emplacement

stoic breach
#

Lol

main grove
#

MG42 is probably the worst MMG right now for me

stoic breach
#

I hate when people talk about strategy and tactics in Battlefield

wind shale
#

ive been enjoying the m37 a ton this week

#

its actually hilarious

solid hinge
#

is it not a strategy game

stoic breach
#

I guess it cant be helped

#

Its not

solid hinge
#

@main groveflares make a loud noise and spot the direction of the player who used it

wind shale
#

people are so oblivious

stoic breach
#

Its super casual

wind shale
#

bruh no

solid hinge
#

pretty sure there's a strategic element to it

wind shale
#

bfv is super hardcore realism milsim game

#

hardcore is the main game mode for battlefield, dont you know?

main grove
#

Playstyle does not equal strategy

solid hinge
#

a stragey is pretty useful in battlefield 5

stoic breach
#

Every playstyle should be viable, but not equally encouraged

icy sluice
#

There was a guy laying on his back at the very top of the stairs... received a headbutt

solid hinge
#

like flanking is a form of strategy

wind shale
#

imagine if 1/4 the players in any game was recon

stoic breach
#

I think stationary/passive gameplay and aggressive gameplay should both be viable

wind shale
#

although if you play grind'

stoic breach
#

But BFV heavily encourages more passive play than aggressive

wind shale
#

it feels that way

main grove
#

If I think some dude is camping in a room I let one of my team run and and if he gets shot I sprint to the corner and deck the prick

stoic breach
#

Lol

wind shale
#

thats why

#

you roam medic squad

stoic breach
#

I guess you can call that strategy

#

That just sucks

wind shale
#

one of you gets decked going into a room

#

you spray him down

#

and pick him right back up

stoic breach
#

Zerging medics

#

Yucky stinky

solid hinge
#

Fast ttk encourages passive play

wind shale
#

with my shotgun meming recently

#

i dont need anybody else

#

;p

stoic breach
#

Fast TTK doesn't encourage passive play

solid hinge
#

It does

stoic breach
#

Does that mean slow TTK encourages aggressive play?

solid hinge
#

Less reaction time

wind shale
#

ttk doesnt encourage either

solid hinge
#

= camping is stronger

#

Low ttk = more reaction time

main grove
#

Range and attrition encourages passive play

stoic breach
#

The case is that because of your reacting time, you need more information as the buffer

wind shale
#

attrition is ass

#

i want it gone so bad

stoic breach
#

Being able to react before you start getting shot at is key

#

BFV lacks information

wind shale
#

every kill you should have to return to base to resupply

main grove
#

Attrition is genuinely the main worst thing about BF1 to BFV

wind shale
#

what a great idea

main grove
#

It’s so un fun

stoic breach
#

Yea

main grove
#

Support is shit for ammo now

solid hinge
#

Tank repair attrition sucks ass

stoic breach
#

Attrition also means gadget balance sucks as well

main grove
#

Whereas in BF1 supports were gods of gadget restoration

wind shale
#

the game needs more fetch quests like grabbing medic pouches

solid hinge
#

Not being able to fully repair sucks

stoic breach
#

Support being walking ammo station is such a limiting viewpoint

#

Support offers suppression and repair as well

wind shale
#

in order to cap a point you should have to resupply at spawn first

stoic breach
#

Despite my opinions on repairing

main grove
#

You didn’t HAVE to run ammo support in BF1 tho

stoic breach
#

Bro, you must resupply the flag that you put up in someone elses base

wind shale
#

repairing needs to give more points

stoic breach
#

😩

main grove
#

Whereas you do in this

wind shale
#

i hate attrition so damn much

#

just put a limiter whenever youre on a good streak

#

it wouldnt be as bad

stoic breach
#

Yeah, thing with BF1 is that it fixed gadget and grenade spam with cooldowns

wind shale
#

if you didnt take forever to start healing as well

stoic breach
#

But everyone hated that

wind shale
#

like great

#

i still have to wait like 20 seconds

stoic breach
#

So now you get instant resupply when you respawn and everything has the same global cooldown

wind shale
#

to heal my 10hp

main grove
#

I don’t get why this game has such poor gadget variety compared to BF1 when if anything there should be more gadgets due to better technology

solid hinge
#

In bfv1 u could heal tanks w horses

wind shale
#

thing is

#

in bfv

solid hinge
#

And behemoths too

wind shale
#

there is no gadget variety

#

except for like launchers

stoic breach
#

Ye

#

Also

wind shale
#

and support explosives

main grove
#

Medic has Fucking nothing

wind shale
#

medic you run pouch and smoke launcher

solid hinge
#

Medics have smoke

stoic breach
#

Fast TTK doesn't encourage camping, slow health regen encourages camping

wind shale
#

recon you run beacon and flare

solid hinge
#

And infinite health

stoic breach
#

What that other guy said about his MMG gameplay is kinda valuable

solid hinge
#

Best gadget

stoic breach
#

You can just choose to un-attrition yourself by camping

wind shale
#

forced teamplay never works out in design

stoic breach
#

^

#

100% true

wind shale
#

working together is automatically a multiplier

#

it shouldnt be a requirement

main grove
#

I mean

stoic breach
#

Yeah lol

main grove
#

Are you saying teamplay should be scrapped

#

Entirely

solid hinge
#

Attrition is good

main grove
#

From Battlefield

wind shale
#

you dont need to build mechanics that completely rely on teamplay

solid hinge
#

The game is different from all the other fps

wind shale
#

like you didnt need to be given medic pouches in bf4 to heal

#

you just wait a bit longer

main grove
#

Like are you saying that going lone wolf should be stronger than with a team

wind shale
#

where did i say that lol

#

working together is already a multiplier

#

like i said

#

youll be better off working together rather then not

stoic breach
#

Individuals on their own should be strong

wind shale
#

regardless of whether or not the game forces it

#

But there should be a delay of 1/2 secs from the pouch use and start of the health generation imo

stoic breach
#

Take "flanking" as an example

#

You have this element of surprise

#

But you get fucked cause you arent zerging

wind shale
#

i shouldnt have to wait for timmy to take off his helmet and throw me a pouch in order to heal myself

#

as an example

#

in previous games

#

you could still heal without teammates

#

it just took longer

#

as an example

stoic breach
#

Individuals being strong enough to complete tasks together regardless of numbers or collective strength is better

wind shale
#

instead like

#

idk

#

attrition bad

main grove
#

I’m not saying forced teamplay is good but it should be highly encouraged

wind shale
#

it was encouraged just fine in bf4

#

now in 5 youre forced to

#

with attriton

stoic breach
#

It shouldnt be highly encouraged

wind shale
#

unless you want to run to base to resupply

stoic breach
#

People like to say Battlefield is a "sandbox" but then spouting shit like "teamplay"

#

Like, which one is it

main grove
#

Lone wolf players haven’t really made the right choice with a battlefield game

#

Like why

stoic breach
#

Battlefield is perfect for lone wolfing

wind shale
#

you cant choose the randoms you play with

main grove
#

Why did you get it if you hate playing with others

stoic breach
#

You have such a large play space

#

Theres so much more value in letting players fuck around doing what they want

#

Thats the main appeal of Battlefield

icy sluice
#

Create a squad and lock it

#

bam, lone wolf

stoic breach
#

Conquest is popular because you can go wherever you want

#

People love Battlefield because of the freedom

solid hinge
#

I usually play in 2 ppl sqad w mic

stoic breach
#

Forced teamplay is directly opposed to that freedom

solid hinge
#

Way better than 4 randomers

wind shale
#

i mostly play alone

main grove
#

But it sounds like you want to become a one man army that makes teamplay completely Fucking pointless

wind shale
#

and it can be pretty horrible

stoic breach
#

It doesnt

#

Strong alone, strong together

wind shale
#

youre still stronger with more people

#

you do collectively more dps

#

you have more options availible

stoic breach
#

Lone wolfing gives you the benefit of a smaller profile, teaming gives the benefit of more numbers and other people to take hits for you

#

Its the freedom of choosing how to play

#

And how to approach situations

wind shale
#

you could be a one man army in bf4 pretty easily

#

i could slay people and blow up tanks all by myself

stoic breach
#

Thats also dependant on skill

#

If you can dominate as a solo player, you deserve it

wind shale
#

having a group with me made me more effective

main grove
#

Like I don’t like the limited health but I’m not sure if that was designed to specifically hurt lone wolfing

stoic breach
#

It was

wind shale
#

it was

#

you cant heal unless you either

stoic breach
#

BFV was designed to kill lone wolfing

wind shale
#

are given a pouch by another player

prime pine
#

Its the only part of attrition i hate

wind shale
#

or run all the way to a resupply point

#

where they are limited

prime pine
#

Its why medics are popular

solid hinge
#

Medics can lone wolf

prime pine
#

Infact i think its the most popular

main grove
#

I mean I rarely am between 100 or 0 health

wind shale
#

which now leads to more problems

solid hinge
#

Wout any problem

main grove
#

I’m either fully alive or dead

wind shale
#

with medic being the only class that can infinitely heal

prime pine
#

Assault is slightly more

#

As they can heal 45/50 samage

wind shale
#

now they cant have huge weapon flexibility

prime pine
#

Damage

wind shale
#

or else it would break the game

#

makes balancing medic hard

#

if people dont play medic the game slows way down

#

if too many do the game becomes unplayable

#

all because of attrition

#

hell, in bf4 medic had the best guns in the game

#

and infinite aoe healing

#

and it wasnt an enormous problem

main grove
#

I don’t like the idea of limited health regen but I’ve never been hurt by it

prime pine
#

I would personally double the health normal classes can regen

stoic breach
#

Yeah, its why people think assault rifle medic is too strong

prime pine
#

E.g heal 60 not 30

wind shale
#

imagine if medic

#

had the stg

#

how overpowered that would b e

stoic breach
#

Literally its because medic has better healing power than every other class

#

I fucking wish medic had ARs

solid hinge
#

60 is too much

prime pine
#

And have light infantries healing 90

stoic breach
#

But healing is too much of a game breaker

solid hinge
#

Maybe 5 more is fine

main grove
#

The one thing stopping medics from wiping the floor with people in BF1 was the considerable spread that SARs would get in that

stoic breach
#

What would be better is if healing pouches didnt exist

solid hinge
#

If u increase the auto healing uhave to increase the bolt dmg too

stoic breach
#

But nobody wants to even consider that because its not "Battlefield" or "teamplay"

#

It would be balanced though

#

And teamplay exists in teammates having good aim in a gunfight

main grove
#

They should exist

#

As an option

stoic breach
#

Nah

main grove
#

Not a necessity

solid hinge
#

@stoic breach just add a 2 secs delay bween the pouch and the healing

stoic breach
#

MW has stim so you can regen faster in a gunfight

#

Everyone hates it because its unbalanced as fuck

#

BFV has that in the form of medic healing

#

But everyone likes it as a concept

wind shale
#

Funny thing for me is like

main grove
#

Medic pouch self healing should be clunky like in BF1

wind shale
#

Tf2 had more teamwork then bf ever did

#

And yet you could still play solo just fine

solid hinge
#

If u have the box it still is

stoic breach
#

Clunky sucks

#

Delay sucks

#

Cooldown sucks

solid hinge
#

And in bf1 suppression blocked healing

stoic breach
#

Getting rid of it and making players regen to 100hp within 5 seconds would be much better

#

Thats actually another good thing about suppression

wind shale
#

You dont need to regen that fast

stoic breach
#

Suppression is telling the player that in that position, they are at a disadvantage

main grove
#

Why though like just make taking loads of damage in gunsights a complete non issue

wind shale
#

It was slow to heal in bf4

prime pine
#

Im used to the fact that within the imbalance it creates a balance. Medics have far less range than any other class and to make up for it they have unlimited heal and smokes.

main grove
#

BF1 healing was fine

wind shale
#

And it still works

prime pine
#

Sure they have bolties

#

But that doesnt change much

main grove
#

5 seconds is like fucking COD

stoic breach
#

5 seconds is CoD

#

Which is why its good

wind shale
#

5 would be too fast

main grove
#

BF1 healing was in about 8 or 10 seconds

stoic breach
#

It wouldnt

wind shale
#

It was slower before

solid hinge
#

10

wind shale
#

And it still worked

stoic breach
#

Thing is in CoD, 5 seconds feels really slow

honest cave
#

Hsvent played in a bit. Have they added the ability to change assingments without leaving the server to do so?

main grove
#

BF is a much bigger game than COD

stoic breach
#

It all depends on the pace of the game

solid hinge
#

@honest caveno

main grove
#

5 seconds is super quick in BF

wind shale
#

Bf is bleeding people

#

After they changed direction

main grove
#

Imagine you gun someone to 10 health and he about 50m away and goes behind over

#

Cover

#

And 5 secs later he’s at full health

#

That’s like medics now

stoic breach
#

Thats not a bad thing

wind shale
#

Thats what high damage is for

stoic breach
#

If everyone can do it

wind shale
#

Aim better

#

And youll kill em

stoic breach
#

Yeah exactly

solid hinge
#

If u have an impact granade

stoic breach
#

If you cant kill someone at 50m, you're using the wrong weapon

solid hinge
#

Use it

stoic breach
#

Spread and damage models

#

Thats what weapon balance is for

solid hinge
#

Impact granades are amazing

main grove
#

It would piss me off if everyone healed in 5 seconds

#

Because there’s no consequence to being shot

wind shale
#

I had some sad moments cus of attrition recently

main grove
#

And living

wind shale
#

Getting my killstreaka shortened becase now my hp is max 30

main grove
#

Ammo attrition causes issues

#

Health attrition has never been an issue with me

wind shale
#

And have 0 hopes to win fights

#

Then you clearly dont flank and live for a long time

icy sluice
#

There's health and ammo practically everywhere

solid hinge
#

^

main grove
#

I see it as you’ve made too many mistakes and now you’re in a vulnerable state

icy sluice
#

Only the bigger maps it becomes a problem

#

Hamada and Panzerstorm mostly

solid hinge
#

Marita bk is quite bad

wind shale
#

Too many mistakes?

#

I kill 10 people in a row

main grove
#

Like I still think BF1 had near perfect health and ammo system

wind shale
#

One gets me low

#

Now im boned

solid hinge
#

Ammo is better in bfv

main grove
#

One got you low so his shooting was not a complete waste

icy sluice
#

I have never gotten even close to losing ammo in BF1

wind shale
#

Not my fault he couldnt kill me

main grove
#

I hate hurting someone then having my fight mean nothing

stoic breach
#

I've run out of ammo from living for so long in BF1

#

The ammo stations themselves are actually decent

#

In BFV

solid hinge
#

The only gun i fell it has way to low ammo is the breda

stoic breach
#

Its like the rare list of additions I actually like

main grove
#

I just think BFV should take BF1 systems

#

They’re good

wind shale
#

Bfv is carried by the gunplay and movement

#

Copy bf4 over bf1

#

Any day

stoic breach
#

Nah

#

I would prefer a modified BF1

#

BF1 with BFV's spotting changes

wind shale
#

Although

stoic breach
#

And maybe gunplay

#

But maybe not

wind shale
#

The thing i never want baxk

#

Is random bullet spread

main grove
#

Spread sucks

stoic breach
#

BFV has random bullet spread

solid hinge
#

I loved that

main grove
#

But it’s super good for balancing

icy sluice
#

Pretty sure every Battlefield has spread

stoic breach
#

^

#

Every Battlefield has spread

wind shale
#

It feels like nothing in this game

solid hinge
#

Random spred like bf1 was amzing

stoic breach
#

Spread at its core is random

#

Thats what balances range

main grove
#

Spread is cancer but it makes balancing much easier

solid hinge
#

It was hard to master

icy sluice
#

Unless Heroes and Play4Free didn't have them but I never played those ¯_(ツ)_/¯

stoic breach
#

Its not cancer, its completely fine

solid hinge
#

But high skill gap

main grove
#

I hated it in BF1 but understood it as what made some guns not OP

solid hinge
#

But ppl hated it for some reasons

stoic breach
#

Yeah, BF1's spread was sort of difficult to get around I will admit

#

It felt easy to aim but landing shots efficiently was challenging

solid hinge
#

If u understood how to use guns w the spread

stoic breach
#

Its nice that BFV was dumbed down from BF1

wind shale
#

It just feels like a lazy way to balance

stoic breach
#

Perfect marketing, make gunplay easier, tell everyone its harder

#

Genius

main grove
#

Gun play is more learnable

stoic breach
#

Its just simpler in general

main grove
#

Recoil is far easier to learn than spread

stoic breach
#

But recoil is based on random spread

solid hinge
#

Random spread was more lernable imo

stoic breach
#

It just doesnt feel random cause spread travels in one direction and the gun is forced to follow spread

solid hinge
#

U could master some guns w the rof plus range

stoic breach
#

Because of the "spread-to-recoil" conversion system

main grove
#

I mean it feels good

solid hinge
#

And recoil

main grove
#

BFV shooting feels a lot nicer

wind shale
#

It does

stoic breach
#

I prefer BF1 just because of the lower visual recoil

main grove
#

BF1 had so much visual recoil what

stoic breach
#

Its harder to hit shit, but my screen doesnt have a seizure when using a high rate of fire weapon

solid hinge
#

I remember destroying everyone w the cei rigotti amd noone used that gun

main grove
#

Screenshake was massive

#

Especially on stuff like RSC SMG or MP18

stoic breach
#

Yeah Cei Rigotti got buffed and it was really nice

#

Nah, not as bad as BFV

#

RSC SMG's recoil was like

solid hinge
#

Every gun got buffed

stoic breach
#

Entirelt visual as well

#

Ye

#

TTK2.0 was so good

#

Faster TTK than even BFV

#

On release

solid hinge
#

The spread

stoic breach
#

In some cases

main grove
#

I don’t like mega fast TTK anyway

#

BF1 was high damage

stoic breach
#

You could always just use more accurate weapons

solid hinge
#

U couldnt spam more than 4 bullets w a semi

main grove
#

But a lot of things got in the way of accuracy

solid hinge
#

At long range

wind shale
#

I dont mind fast or slow ttk

solid hinge
#

U needed more skill on bf1 imo

main grove
#

I look back and wonder how the fuck were LMGs balanced with 4-5

wind shale
#

Although my perception of bf is slower ttk than cod

main grove
#

Lots of spread

#

That’s how

solid hinge
#

Accuracy and recoil controll were more important

wind shale
#

Bfbc2 had a slow af ttk

#

And yet it was still a great game

stoic breach
#

LMGs had reverse spread

solid hinge
#

Ye

stoic breach
#

So you could kind of laser if you just kept shooting

#

And they would overheat

main grove
#

Like I like TTK in a game to be minimum 400ms or something

stoic breach
#

Ehhh

#

Idk about that

main grove
#

I don’t like mega fast TTK

solid hinge
#

The spread on lmgs was insane at launch

main grove
#

At medium to long ranges

solid hinge
#

Id like to see a cei rigotti type of gun on bfv

main grove
#

Should BF have a much faster respawn

stoic breach
#

Yes

main grove
#

Like should death be less punishing

stoic breach
#

Of course

#

Death in BF games feel like asshole

#

Because of how long it takes to respawn

solid hinge
#

10 secs lmao

main grove
#

Like I enjoy a good death in a game

stoic breach
#

BFV death experience should be this

main grove
#

It should be like BF4s but a bit faster

stoic breach
#

Game tells you what body part got shot for you to be killed, who shot you and who assisted them

#

No "downed animation" because its unnecessary and clunky

#

The revive animation itself is ok

#

Basically a death/bullets to kill timeline

main grove
#

I prefer actually seeing my still corpse in BF1

stoic breach
#

That clearly gives you enough information

main grove
#

Be a good way to see your own cosmetics actually

stoic breach
#

Hahaha

#

Interesting

#

Also, teammates should have death icons that show where they died, so you can more easily gauge where danger is

wind shale
#

yeah dying in this game is ass

main grove
#

BFV death is a chore

wind shale
#

feels so clunky

stoic breach
#

CoD has death icons for teammates, and plenty of ways for you, as the shooter, to prevent death icons for more stealth

#

Really nice intel/counter-intel gameplay there

#

And like I said before, BFV needs more information/intel

#

Also I thought of a somewhat ok way to balance spot flares

#

Instead of constantly spotting someone, it just places a marker on the enemy's current location every second

#

So staying still is more dangerous, but moving around naturally is safer because you aren't constantly spotted

icy sluice
#

Flares do have trails when fired so you can make out where they were fired from. Also directional sounds and tracers do help as well as people shouting and crying when they die

wind shale
#

i want a large neon sign on screen

#

that says 'HEY, HES RIGHT HERE'

icy sluice
#

If someone is crying, they've recently been downed

stoic breach
#

Yeah thats all depth of gameplay

#

My friend could never play BFV with audio, which kind of sucks, but visual/audio needs to be perfectly balanced in a casual game

#

Like, you dont need audio at all to play Titanfall 2

#

Because of how good and functional the visuals are

#

Personally, I could never use headphones to play because I always used discord while playing

#

So I always lost some of that sterio accuracy

solid hinge
#

that’s why there’s still so much activity on BF4 no vaseline

stoic breach
#

@wind shale also what do you mean by large neon sign

wind shale
#

in the literal sense

stoic breach
#

Fair enough

#

Could be right

wind shale
#

im trolling

#

ignore me

stoic breach
#

Hahaha

#

I mean even then, because of BFV's weird visibility, neon signs might even be relevant

prime pine
#

The NYDAR on the garand is weirdly usable

sour gulch
#

It's comforting I'm not the only one with visibility problems with bf5.

prime pine
#

Went 47-6 with it

#

Honestly i just had some asshole i couldnt even see past 50M just pelting my squad and i

#

Its just annoying

#

People know the visibility is bad and so they'll abuse it

DX-12 was causing me the mother of all lags.

#

Turned it off and no lag.

wind shale
#

dx12 gives me 30 more fps

lol

sterile current
#

Yeah it’s strange.

sour gulch
#

Remove distance haze
@coral fiber interesting. Will do.

wind shale
#

only new cards can actually use it correctly

sterile current
#

I’m running max settings on PC and for some reason DX-12 broke the camels back.

#

I have no lag playing with ultra.

#

Kind of cool experience.

#

I find the stuff the content creators tell you to disable actually help.

wind shale
#

i had to check disable fullscreen optimization on the .exe

#

or else have horrendous stuttering

sour gulch
#

It's a beautiful thing, max settings, but it's so beautiful, I can't see half the enemies for the trees and fog and haze.

sterile current
#

I dunno. I don’t really see any visible problems.

#

I actually think I can see enemies better.

wind shale
#

turn mesh to nothing

#

and your visibility will go wayyy up

sour gulch
#

I find that in bf1 and 5, enemmies blend in with the detail in the scenery. In 4, it's was super easy to spot enemies...plus there was spotting. Which was kinda op.

sterile current
#

I saved my team in Rotterdam with the Tiger.

sour gulch
#

(and there a alot of stuff going on with the weather and debris...so it's constant movement!)

sterile current
#

We were down to 192 to 500.

#

I went and just started capping sectors while a horde of support players stood behind me.

#

We captured all of them and reduced their numbers down a lot.

#

Then I called in a support half truck tank and me and my squad bombed their main base.

#

When we ran out of shells we’d swap places and the other would continue the bombing.

sour gulch
#

Nice story.

Just explosive kills

#

@sterile current the first time you play a map on DX12 its caching the shaders for the game

in the long run it can give you better FPS after its cached everything

depends on your setup tho

prime pine

The closest thing to a spy plane you get in bf5 is the blenheim mk1, bf109 g2 and ju88C

open surge
#

the UAV is the corsair dropping flares in the stratosphere

#

that you can't shoot

prime pine
#

Honestly i wouldnt even consider them as spy planes

#

But maybe thats just me

open surge
#

UAV build fighter

#

Fly in a circle and flare every time you can

prime pine
#

I prefer the spotting camera over the flares

#

Feels more fair

open surge
#

Well when I say circle I mean around the entire map

prime pine
#

Hhaha

open surge
#

You'll be spotting out of bounds!

prime pine
#

I mean you have unlimited spot distance

#

With cameras

open surge
#

or deployments but shush

prime pine
#

But the spot doesnt last for long

#

Flares spot a smaller area for longer

#

Haha

#

Smoke doesnt even wash spots off reliably

#

You'll run into the smoke and it says you're still spotted

#

I cant be bothered getting those last 400 kills with the zero

#

Quick thing.

Dice,

In your eyes.

I firestorm worth keeping going.

Cuz its a good gamemode.

Imo games that are just by them self (Apex, PUBG)

That are BRs do better.
