And in that massacre, us Americans have killed Jesse Owens best friend in the olympics
Who here has the most kills on BFV?
No Type 5 Rifle
Overall there’s a lack of gadget variety in BFV imo
It also reminds me how bf1 had no Serbians
They literally started the war
And there will never be Serbians in bf1
At least BF1 covered more parts of the war than BFV
A WW2 game that doesn’t include the eastern front :V
Like I was hoping apocalypse would have the Serbian army
sadge budget noises
@finite gull I see your a lad of culture noice
Tbh would’ve been nice to see those 
I have almost 116k kills
I just hope the gameplay is good
It’d be nice to see some sort of story but I just want a fun game
Resources perhaps
Is BF 4 cross platform?
No
no its an 8 year old game
how to become better at battlefield 1
wow thats actually a lot more story than i thought
the easiest way to get better at any shooter is to learn it's maps and rotation routes
Use explosives, you can dodge a bullet but you can't dodge a large explosion
but what if you are dogshit at the game
Use explosives
You lost connection to EA at home screen of BF 4 is so painful
Vehicle animations kinda ruined everything tbh
Especially personal transport
Like Jeep’s
Why would I not want to get in the driver seat by default
I mean all you need is a gun and u shoot people what do ya do with personal transport?
Get around the huge maps
Ah makes sense
Anyone down to play bf4? :D
alright
i just installed hardline
lets see how this is
What’s your guys favorite Bfv Map?
Nvm then
Fjell
It's the best map
My favorite is Provence
Narvic fjell and provence are all great
I love the color of Provence
The color is great
I do hump da tress with a sniper in Provence the colors are gr8
pacific storm
Hump the trees?
I love the oranges and purples in Provence and I LOVE THAT IT'S BOTH OPEN BUT ALSO HAS A TON OF COVER
Yeah hump the what
10/10 best bfv map
Yus hump da trees like every sniper would the colors are magnificient
when you're bored enough you started teaching someone how to dogfight with jets from scratch in battlefield 
I hate jets tho I just bazooka the sheet out in the sky
I hate jets
thats works, probably more efficient 
But.. wanna get into flying sims?
Who knows it might actually be fun to play planes

racoon
ms flight simulator 2020 is fun
I want ms flight sim 2020
I dun got patience to play simulators how do ya do it
Pacific storm is way better than wake island
how come everything microsoft makes is overpriced
Dosent Microsoft own gamepass
Ah yes Pacific storm .... The colors... How I love to snipe there
Pacific storm is so boring
And isn't it like $1 for 100 games
You run in a semi circle and shoot at planes and 15 FUCKING TANKS IN A 30 METER RADIUS
Pacific storm plays really well imo
Love to farm kills in my zero on that map
Arras is cool
Hell no
is bfV any good
Best FPS I’ve known
Nah, bunch of campers crawling around in vegetation
Is there an issue with the k31/43?
Reticle doesn't render while moving
imo bf5 sucked ass, personally bfbc2 did it best bf1 right after
thanks
Balls
BF1 was a shambles
No
i have started my experience with bf1
Yet I play it anyways 
Amazing game
BFV has best gunplay and movement to date
You can slide backwards and up hill 
A lot of casual players loved BF1
Exactly
alright thanks
Dead chat
I think i am getting hacked lol it keeps logging me off my account i am just tryna play battlefield
Getting shot by AA tanks for 10 minutes was definitely worth it, the AS VAL shreds
I’m #13 for most kills with ap mines on Xbox. So let me share that with you. Come on, let's share that, and in sharing it, we'll somehow, er, cathartically dispel all that heinous shit
Too bad it seems to go from deadly do detrimental pretty quickly in terms of ranged gunfights. Tho i do have the MTAR, i should probably use that in more opened maps
Contribute!
V is worth it for no more than $10 Elmo
It's a mess and unfinished but it's still fun I suppose
Best FPS I’ve played
Actually this applies to other sniper scopes
Kinda goes blurry while moving while ads
Opinions
Yes, it’s mine
Being a recon main in most battlefields is so fun
Especially in 5
Because the snipers are so broken
I feel like Crosshair from the Bad Batch
idk if i would say recon is broken
A
I can't even recall any broken snipers except for the one in hardline that one-shotted to the body beyond cqc
.50 knockout I think
Hey im new to bf and i wanted to know what the mode with lots of people on each team is in bf4
conquest is the go to mode for the bf franchise
How many people are per team?
Do the battle pickup snipers count?
Like the Barret M107 and the bolt action one
32 max
Most of the time with 5 to 7 control points
Which BF game do you play?
Oh i am currently downloading bf4 my friends say its great. And i enjoy big team deathmatches
And are the servers active enough?
What makes it fun?
All the guns, and vehicles really. lots of maps too
Oh nice
I like bf5 for the improved movement and graphics etc
but bf4 has a better sandbox and setting imo
I got quite bored fast of ww2 era weapons
People say that bf5 is bad
Oh right. Will bf2042 be good you think?
too many computers have accessed this accounts version of DisplayName ?
When i try to start bfv
I think it will be. I like the answers dice gave to some of the reveal questions today about cross play etc
I also like that weapons are not class based anymore
Yeah I seethe when I look at primary assault weapons for japanese

There is none
Looks cool aswell
Class balance has been a problem throughout battlefield
The fucking squad tanks shiuld inky be used by the leader
The asshole stole my tiger left the gem and gave it to some random
Fuck this game
It's bullshit how members can just steal it
Play solo
I got it for 8 dollars so I guess it's worth it
what if your best teammate is a bot
Oh not bad then
Is war tapes recommended for headphones?
I dont understand whats different about them
Surround is good if you have some nice headphones for it
Then win lost ratio goes down
PC, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5® consoles (PC and console can opt-out from playing together)
Xbox One and PlayStation 4® consoles
I hope this will stop people from bitching about crossplay now
i have a question about battlefield 4 with snipers, that it has like a tracer bullet and i wanna know how to turn that on
Does BFBC2 still have people playing?
there should be some servers on, after BF2042 trailer BF4/BF3 servers waked up again
All guns in BF4 have tracers
lemme send u the pic about what i mean
There’s a reason why you can see the bullet after firing
HOLY FUCK MAN THERE ARE STILL MANY PEOPLE BITCHING ABOUT CROSSPLAY
LITERALLY IN EVERY BATTLEFIELD SOCIAL MEDIA
your capslock is pressed @tough lodge
"bUt siR, cRosSpLaY mOrE haCkeRs"
Anyone with a decent IQ will turn off crossplay
pc players be kicking more ass tho
That’s the point
They be using stuff that costs more than a fucking car
crossplay is awesome! i am playing on pc but some of my friends play on playstation so finally we will be playing together
Idea: have non-pc servers
most crossplay games have the option to disable crossplay
@golden walrus i know but people over on facebook are over reacting
For them it's like crossplay will be the end of the franchise
Does it usually take so long to get into a match in bfv? I'm in but noone else is joining
this is more of a good thing because 50% of the pc players don’t have any idea what they are doing
Use server browser
yes
There is no games being listed there though
Use filters
oh i found it, but the only onmes i find have 200+ ping
Click the ping
On top
To sort it by ping
You can find servers that are near you
The ping text
Not the ping number itself
I didn't think it'd be this dead
2am
That explains why
But you usually find tons of games anyways
How do i change the output for the voip? It's coming out of my monitor rn
i dont like it
BF4: what’s better? M98B or 338-Recon
ACW-R
i like the M98B
338 recon is ass iirc
Some of the absolute worst muzzle velocity and bullet drop on any sniper
I only use it because it sounds better than most snipers imo
Alright, I’ll go with the M98B then
I like the recon tho
It's cool, there's just no reason to use it unless you like it and feel like having to compensate more than you really should, especially for 4
M98B has slow muzzle velocities too but the highest damage of any sniper iirc
Damage doesn't really matter imo as long as it can one-shot headshot at any range, and only like 2 snipers can't do that
Scout Elite is the only one I know of that can’t
Maybe the CS5 but I’m not sure about that one
I can't remember if it was the FY-JS or something
It's been too long
The FY-JS is essentially the "unique" version of the Scout Elite.
Slightly better stats (in some areas), but honestly I don't use the close-quarters rifles.
Same here
I think the scout elite is cool but there's no good reason to use it imo
If you want a close quarters sniper in BF4 just use a shotgun 
Yeah honestly I don't really see a point in using it outside of PC, as CQC sniping with a controller is fucking difficult on a game that doesn't have CoD-level aim assist.
GOL Magnum and the 338 Recon are my most used by far
Never really jumped on the intervention train but it was really cool to see it get in
I only use the SRR-61, honestly. The bullet velocity is too good.
It shoots gravity-defying bullets too, which is nice.
Sniping in BF4 was never really my thing tbh
Yeah the drop in 4 is ridiculous so I definitely see the appeal of it
I still aim so high in V because 4 ruined me lol
V sniping is a walk in the park compared to 4
And 1 is even easier with sweet spot lmao
No I mean the bullets are literally gravity-defying. They drop at 6m/s² instead of the 9.81/ms² that gravity normally works at. I don't know...why exactly they chose to do that instead of some other solution, but oh well. It's nice either way to have a more accurate rifle.
Oh I never knew that tbh
The Scout Elite has some super gravity, though. Drop of 15m/s².
No wonder I've never liked it.
Okay so I was right. The FY-JS is literally just...'if the Scout Elite was good'.
Also I'm seeing wayyyy too many people using muzzle brakes on bolt-actions and it's fucking weird.
Yeah that makes no sense at all
Always no barrel attachment, variable zoom, straight pull bolt for me
I generally run straight pull (because this just couldn't be a normal fucking feature, eh?), 8x + RF, and either a supp or flash hider, depending on if it's core or HC.
No point using HBAR for a weapon that goes exactly where you're pointing.
I considered barrel attachments but seeing any drop in a stat always bugged me a lot
Like what if I NEEDED that slightly better hipfire lol
Yeah definitely
Hipfire the vector @solid hinge
Isn't premium supposed to come with all shortcut kits
no
Well mine did... Except for engineer
They gave the shortcuts out for free over the years.
I got all the shortcuts except for engineer
Why do people just steal the squad tank then leave the game and give it to some random?
The definitive edition of BFV comes with all shortcut packs.
It's just so fucking annoying
I know I'm just saying.
@solid hinge apparently I got a skined red devil p38 pistol from bfv
Probably not. There's no customization for them.
There's no customization for any sidearms
It didn't download
Lemme check and see
Because it's really weird to have the whole kit for all characters except for engineer
Did you install it? (Console Question)
does anyone know of a way to find organized teams for battlefield?
hopefully for bf1 operations
oh gotcha

Planes are bullshit
There is no countermeasures to get then off your ass
well then how are you supposed to fly to another country without planes?
A BF109 can turn with a spitfire
And corsair can do the same with a zero
Makes a lot of sense
learn to dogfight??
I like how in battlefield gravity just doesnt work like it should
like this bullet is bending the laws of physics
I can't stand the European planes
The Pacific theater ones are so much easier to fly
The spitfires and 109s just feel weird
The only thing you can do is just land and hope they don't kill you
How are tanks supposed to be fair in bf4
You can't kill them
I dumped 4 RPGs into one and did nothing
Fair for only the people using them
Also lmao on the servers where 'camping' is banned but there are campers anyway
That's the other problem is that noobs don't play engineer
And the servers are packed with noobs
I think they do they just don't use RPGs or use other tools
Or just launchers in general
A lot of people play engineers
Yeah I just had a match where we basically could make no progress and yet nobody went engineer to counter the tanks that were slaughtering us
That's teams fault not the tanks being unfair
Seems like most of the time teams just suck
Tanks I think are pretty fair, the only thing that is unbalanced is if a sweat gets a hold of a attack helicopter
Yeah I think tanks were easiest to handle in 3 and 4 tbh
They glitch them and they are basically flawless
1 sweat in a attack chopper can fuck up a whole match, it shouldn't be allowed
Am I stupid for using dmr
Idk
I like having access to ranged options
I don't like DMRs
can u hit shots?
Yeah for the most part
yes then thay good
At this point BFV is just complete shit
No, the one with the super high stability
idk then
I'm probably just going to stop playing it
Scar sv?
i dount really use dmrs i use mostly lmgs
The SVD
Or conquest
Like picking off people at distance
But then I bet you can do similar damage with a rifle
No it's not
So for me I find them a bit useless
9ID of battlefield 4 xbox one is a fucking bad unit
terrible
I can't stand it anymore
I never raged so much on bf1 as I do on V
so many rage hackers
Not on ps4
Imagine raging while playing a game
tfw when ur team loses 0-500 in bfv
You can't even kamikaze in bf1
Dis-associate yourself from the game
Plane sniping was fun with tanks
Understand that winning gets you nothing, losing also gets you nothing
On bf1
in bf1 i used a sniper and killed someone in a plane
Did thar one
Unless your training for a pro league and then you gotta practice
in bf1 u can always kill tanks with the tankgewehr ez
Yeah crossplay is fucking terrible
I don’t want to play with PC players
I don’t even want the option
NO CROSSPLAY
Don't be such a fungle toe
Only way it'd be fine is if it filtered out M+KB users like forkknife
I actually like good ping
disable crossplay and be happy
its too late console players
We're coming for you
Let's try and be friendly with other users

alright my bad
Skill issue
What’s with everyone being toxic
Grow up
I know you PC guys prefer hackers
There is no denying that M+KB is a huge advantage over pad even with aim assist
Aiming with thumb versus entire hand
It's obvious
Yeah
Yeah but you can still do just fine
Realistically
Consoles should have MKB support by default
You’re just BF loyalists if you don’t see the problem with crossplay
I liked it in cold war you bungus
I’d be playing BF4/5 with MKB if PS4 supported it
bro i dont under stand the hate for cross play like no i can play with my friends on xbox like cool
I ain't no loyalist
Skill issue
Yeah because you play on PC lmfao
youll be fine
Just turnoff crossplay?
Omg no I dont
I don't like it but as long as you can turn it off like in recent cods I'll be fine
Does suck for people in regions that need the crossplay for the game to stay playable longer tho
And get bad ping?
Cross play with consoles should already be a thing
It takes like
Why would you get bad ping for turning off crossplay
Turning off crossplay puts me into a far away server
Fortnite and Rocket League have it
How is that relative to each other
How is crossplay related to ping
Do you live in antarctica or something
Why would you get highping
That’s a you problem
Cross play helps multiplayer games in the long run
Like
Indeed
Where do you live
Is anyone here not a PC player?
I play on console and have no problem with crossplay
You're NA
You bungus
Because kindly piss off
NA is pretty populated
Getting kicked out of servers by admins on a daily server, I love love love the battlelog server system
NOT
How is that gonna make you have high ping when NA is literally the most active region
DICE is still gonna host servers near you
With crossplay disabled
I don’t get connected to NA servers. Jesus fucking Christ
I don't play either on pc either
Can but just don't really care to
Console is more comfortable for me and the vast majority of my friends are there
Battlefield admins are always mini fascists lol
You literally just hate pc players
“Are you hiding shotguns under those floorboards? BANNED!”
Disabling crossplay puts me in servers in other countries
Which game does that
@pure forge I did two things, killed 1 soldier with my M416 and a tank with a atgm, one of those actions got me kicked
Holy fuck
what game are you even talking about
Dont blame crossplay for it
Modern Warfare, Warzone
Blame the matchmaker of whatever game you're playing
Yeah well that’s how it works
thats not crossplays fault
Dont blame crossplay, crossplay literally has no relation to ping
I don’t imagine you PC guys know anything about what you’re saying
This is a classic case of mad cuz bad
Lmao stop with the PC guy stuff

We're not all pc players
Hi Guys
Lmao stop with the PC guy stuff

BF having server browser should keep you from playing on bad servers
That shouldn't happen unless you use quickplay
I don't know what your region is tho so it's possible your area will die faster but crossplay doesn't really affect that
Why do you guys care for crossplay?
Do you see a steam account in my profile?
Ok Samkard was right. I do need a hazmat suit for this area...
Because it's optional and benifits the whole player base?
Because I can play with more of my friends
No. It benefits PC players

And I can plug in a kbm if I want into my console
And shits on console players
You just suck
And get shit on
dude most of the pc players on the latest battlefield suck
Doesn’t matter. Console doesn’t have M&K, does it?
Unless dice is stupid enough to not have an option to bar M+KB users even with crossplay on, I wouldn't worry about it
Even fortnite does that but tbf dice is dumb as hell
Coming from a console player I love crossplay
It can
I literally bought a 20$ m&k
For my xbox
But does BF2042 have it?
Usb
is bf2042 even out
It's not even out yet wtf
Well that’s what we’re talking about, isn’t it?
Idk what your talking about tbh
I'm saying I play console and from what I've seen on cold war crossplay works well and is fun
🤡🤡🤡

If COD has horrible matchmaker then dont blame crossplay for putting you in a different region
You're the clown here sir
:)
In your defense, BF games have a server browser
I really dont want my braincells to decrease more, you guys take care of this guy
Yeah I will but this crossplay thing is still bullshit
You can’t have PC and console together, you just can’t
Throwing my hat into the ring, as futile as it may be.
Okay go talk to a rock then
Maybe if you can't aim
So my question to you is:
Will crossplay negatively affect you if you can turn it off, Sorry?
BF2042 will have opt-in crossplay between console and PC.
Ah well see
He thinks so
Problem solved
I don’t think it should have crossplay to begin with
But yes, I know
I would've been shocked if it wasn't opt-in tbh
I don't see the downside with this being the case
I seriously don't understand
Let's all talk to a rock or something
How you hate so hard
Well you can disagree with an objectively good direction for multi-player gaming, that's what opinions are for.
Because M&K have a big advantage over controller
It's not just KBM. I think you don't have enough experience with PC to really understand what anyone is saying.

is that all?
Being able to turn off crossplay eliminates this issue so crossplay is just an optional bonus
The only problem I can see is the possibility of it limiting your possible servers since there will likely be a lot of mixed servers you'll have to avoid
dosent sound good compered to the positvs
You can opt-out of it. I'll be opting out myself. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
and its optional too
If you're on Xbox you can disable crossplay entirely through system settings, so there's that as well.
really?
Yes. Not entirely sure how it works, but there's an option for it.
Also you can just plug in a damn k&m into your console
wow i didnt know it thanks
Ehh stupid conversation. I’m too used to Warzone, forgot about BF’s server browser
Again, don't get too hype, I literally have no idea how it works, that's just what the setting says.
I do hope you can make crossplay a little specific
I'd like to play with my Xbox friends
Not the end of the world if not tho
ok
I still don’t like crossplay though

Warzone forces crossplay or you can't play the game.
No it doesn’t
Ah, you're on PS. That's why.
You can turn it off
You have the option
On PC and Xbox, crossplay is forced.
No not on Xbox
Wtf
Bruh
Absolutely yes on Xbox.
No
I was literally on the game a few days ago. Couldn't play Warzone without enabling crossplay.
😐
Disabling crossplay puts you into a much longer queue and puts you into a server in a different country
No it literally doesn't function on Xbox or PC. You can't search for a match with crossplay disabled.
That’s why Warzone crossplay (what I’m used to) is shit
So enable cross play?
Talking about PSN
I don't play Warzone, just wanted to try it out. Uninstalled that garbage after like 20 minutes. 😂
Yes, probably before they removed the ability to disable it and still play the game.
They patched it out.
Well thats just ridiculous
I know.
Trust me, I played it before without crossplay, so I know what you're saying. I'm saying now it's not a thing.
Feature is gone.
Yeah I haven't played it in a long time
God I hate Battle Royals lol
I’ve never played a round of Firestorm
BF4 anyone
Never even activated the assignment lol
I am on Xbox
I don’t play Warzone. I played 3-4 matches and never played again
Mainly talking about Modern Warfare
BRs make me anxious
Mhh
Either way, I'm glad they have crossplay for BF2042. Means the game will be active for years and years to come.
Provided it doesn't flop.
I played a bit cause my friend's did but I just couldn't like when the shadow people came out

I was like nah
Delet
My favorite BF is BF1
Isn’t morrowind a ESO expansion?
lmao watch 2042 be the next hardline in that it's basically on life support when it launches
Died so fast
I hope not tho
It was the third elder scrolls game first
Ol BF Flatline
Never got too far into it
2021 hasn't finished Skyrim

That games story isn't even that good anyway
Morrowind is what you should play
Morrowind isn’t on PSN unfortunately
Yeah lol

Yeah I know

I need an Xbox first
Very true
Your experience gaming multiplayer games will overall improve at that point
Are old games on gamepass?
Yeah
Everything from bioshock to mount n blade
And more obscure ones
Perfect dark zero
Yeah it's got bf3
Honestly, a lot of higher-ups at Sony are clowns.
Also bad company 2
I mean it's just bad decision and bad quote day after day. I'm getting real tired of Sony fans getting shafted by these fucking people.
Mhm
Cant wait for the new content
Yeah just preordered it today actually
Mark Cerny might as well legally change his name to Mr. Sandman, because he can make any topic so dreadfully boring to listen to that it puts you to sleep.
I'll just wait and upgrade for 20$
I killed him 22 times and he only got me 4
I should probably edit it and highlight it lmao
Gamepass is pretty good
Is that bottom stats bar from the game or a widget?
athe UI for battlefield hardline is so nice, damn
cool
It was even made in my home town too so
Witcher 3
Honestly, Game Pass Ultimate is the greatest deal the gaming industry has ever seen. Quite frankly I'm not sure why the userbase isn't higher, but then again you'd be shocked at how many people buy these hundred-dollar consoles just to play Fortnite.
I spent a damn month finishing hollow knight
Halo MCC
most of the battlefield games are on game pass, a lot of ea games, witcher 3, halo, forza, dirt 5, doom eternal, etc
Oh yeah that's true
Yeah countless games
I always wonder how the hell they do it
I just say what I did because hollow knight was a nice surprise
You should give gamepass another look
Well usually when something looks too good to be true, it is. Not with GPU, though.
Vast majority of the games are random indie titles
mmmm, i got my RX 6700XT reference for MSRP haha
479 USD
Game Pass for both Xbox and PC, xCloud access, EA Play, and Gold, all for $15/mo.
Not to mention any first-party titles are released on Game Pass day-one and stay there forever.
wish BF 2042 was on normal ea play
Might as well give it out for free at that point
I don't understand how Sony can't keep their own fucking exclusives on PS Now, their own service.
Yeah big L
If it weren't for PS, Sony would disappear. Financially speaking, they're doing very poorly.

The only aspects of Sony that make them money anymore are PS (obviously) and their financial services.
Yes Sony has financial services.
? no theyre not
Yes they are.
can you show me where you can prove that
If the PS4 flopped they'd have gone bankrupt a third time.
i mean off the top of my head i can name their film industry doing just fine, among other things
I don't have anything on me to prove it, but I know it to be true because I've went out and looked at their financial records and shit, at least what's public. I'm serious. Financial services and Playstation. That's the only thing keeping Sony on the map right now.
any OCE players keen to play BF4?
isnt their film industry doing just fine
pretty sure their tv department is doing fine too
They need to stop fucking over their customers or they're gunna disappear. It's already looking like they're gunna go bankrupt again within the next 30 years or so. Sure that sounds like a lot of time, but... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
oh wow
this hardline server has 38/48 players
neat
It's not. Their TV sales and everything else pale in comparison to their other two I've mentioned.
aek is godly holy shot
im just really happy this hardline server im in has 38/48 players
Gets boring fast
6 ping too!
Tbh the way to have the most fun imo on bf games is to switch guns depending on what team your on
Keeps it from getting boring
I just use whatever
I have my favorites but even then I've never been the type to have a shitload of service stars on one gun
My most used is the 870 and even then it's under 20 ss
Also it's basically been retired
It gives me a reason to use guns I otherwise wouldn't
what guns should i use in hardline?
Also coming up with loadouts is fun
I just do that anyway when I need to switch things up
Some stuff I'll never touch if it has 0 appeal
The whole ACE line is really unattractive to me
So generic
operator
That's the sniper right?
its the one with the ar
Oh yeah
i like the way these cars handle
The m4 esque guns are pretty good
And the akm is powerful but recoil hits like a truck
That one's pretty decent but hard to use at long range (ro933)
Yes
Fires slowly but hits like a truck
I really wish the G36C wasn't nerfed from 3 to 4
I miss that 750 rpm
That was my favorite gun in all of 3
When I went back to play with it very recently, my game glitched and i was able to spawn in the police side with one without owning the weapon license. 
Let's hope you get the full AR config in 2042
Cause the g36c is basically a carbine of a carbine
That'd be sick
I also wish the MG36 would make a return
Number 1 LMG from 3
Its a cool gun! Just pointing that out
Yeah the mg36 was pretty much that with a longer barrel and bigger mag, but because it didn't provide an advantage it was scrapped
Silly dice
Such a shame
I love the look of that line for some reason and use em in every game
Iconic game ar
what do you have to do here to get image perms?
They both have that futuristic look
Sell your soul
Become reg and or server booster
I'd like the XM8 and/or the OICW
Oicw?
Yeah it's a weird ass gun from the 90s I think
Didn't get far iirc
The XM25 launcher is based on it I think
Oh damn the OICW didn't even make it out of prototype testing lol
Forgot that part
I used it in a few games tho
Like Ghost Recon
Haha
Found another bug in 5
I have the Lewis Gun bipod perk
Doesn’t even let me know if it actually does anything
I got a prone kill and it registered
It increases accuracy when set up
I hope they put some bullshit in 2042
Like either more prototypes or stuff that barely exists like the pancor jackhammer in 3
I can imagine a future acwr
imagination
I want something dumb like an XM1 Garand that's all black polymer and uses 20 round clips that still somehow make that same ping
Also it's full-auto cuz fuck it
What made MMGs and LMGs so bad in 5?
It’s so easy to just camp out in one spot and never die
I'll tell you why they feel bad for me
I don't like MMGs being relegated to that type of play when they have some appealing stats
LMGs let me run n gun but most shoot too damn slow and are really lacking in magazine size so you can get wrecked hard up close and they don't let you take out groups reliably
I liked em in BF1 much more
anyone still playing bf bad company 2
I don't like MMGs being relegated to that type of play when they have some appealing stats
The reason their stats are like that is because theyre balanced out by the bipod system
Yeah I get that but I just wish that category wasn't a thing and that it was balanced to the way they were in other BFs before V
Id run n gun with a big mag LMG even tho they weren't as good at it as the more AR style ones
Yeah Id have been down for more variety in both categories
A pan mag bren for example
Support is my favorite class but it feels the least appealing it's ever been for me in V
That'd be cool
the bfv support just has a lack of focus. DICE slapped all these unrelated mechanics into one class. He is the ammo bearer, builder, engineer, light explosive guy. No real consistency
This has always been true to an extent with support but BFV is the worst example
Yeah it's really strange in V
I don't mind all that other stuff as much but it does suck that the guns generally feel lacking
I was gonna say I hope they get it right in 2042 but I keep forgetting classes sadly won't even exist
everyone just either runs medic or sniper in bfv
It also doesnt help that ARs are a category of weapon since theyre effectively more mobile lmgs. This isnt true now adays but in ww2 lmgs were the main source of firepower. Im not trying to say the bf should copy IRL squad tactics but this has to be taken into account when designing a game with ww2 guns.
For example: the Bren has a 20 round mag and fires at 500 rpm. The STG is also 500 rpm but with a 30 round mag and its significantly more mobile. IRL the Bren was rather powerful due to the lack of ARs but in bfv it and other mgs lag far behind. Even if the Bren is not necessarily worse than the STG, it still looses a lot of its purpose.
Yeah so many LMGs feel unnecessary
It sucks that one of if not THE most competitive LMG is the starter KE7 with fire rate upgrade
It's such a generic gun but the fire rate and 25 round mag are about as good as it gets for run n gun support that also wants to have a chance of wiping three guys with the LMG alone
actually, on that note, isnt running and gunning the exact opposite of what lmgs are meant to do?
why arent you just running an ar or smg?
True but it's a game and you have to take fun into consideration
I like support and I like LMGs
They just kinda did the class poorly this time imo
sure but also every gun having the same playstyle isnt necessarily fun.
They don't all have to but the ones for run n gun don't feel as good as they could compared to those for that playstyle in BF1
There are generally more deadly guns you'll have to go up against in V than in 1
the ones for run n gun
You mean the ARs, smgs, and shotguns?
-lmg
-for run and gun playstyle
Im not sure about that. Some are more mobile but I wouldnt say theyre meant to be run and gun, in any of the bf games
An oddity is the type 11
Normal magazine and decent reload like an aggressive weapon but it has a painfully low rof bit lacks the ammo to be a sitback lmg
It's so weird
I'd have to disagree tbh
Loads of people have done that
I won't go back too far but even in BF1 the BAR and Burton were great aggressive LMGs
Same thing for the KE7 and FG42 in V but I wouldn't call them great yet they still work for that style
They don't really make sense as weapons to take it slow with
I mean those specifically, not LMGs in general
damage is high enough to be a sit back weapon. And IRL it was a sitback weapon. Only lmg I can think of in 5 that wasnt is the Bar
It's just an odd one imo
I guess it's supposed to bridge the gap between mmg and lmg but it just feels weird
I love it but I wish it were better, especially for how I like to play support
Any word on private servers sorry to interrupt
It's cool
Not that I've heard, though I'd be surprised if they didn't make it in
Ive used this thing a lot cause I like faction-specific guns
generally I find "moving but staying back" to be effective. You arent just sitting in one spot , but youre not rushing towards people who are going to outclass you in close range either.
Yeah I've realized how it must be played but I still wish it shot a bit faster so I could be more aggressive
It just sounds so good and I love the top up spec
Closest I can get to the perino in v
but the thing is, when you make lmgs a rushing weapon, they just become ARs. So why not use ARs?
Because I like the support class and LMGs
Like I said tho, people have already been playing them aggressively for years and I'm sure dice knows that
you say you like lmgs but you want to use them in a completely different way to lmgs.
I dont understand what the point of a rushing lmg would be when smgs, shotguns, carbines, and ARs fill the more mobile playstyles.
Lmgs booty in bf4
Even in older bfs cqc with the lmg felt like a bad idea. Only ones that didn't were the BAR and Burton which arent even LMGs irl, and it was still rarely a match for assaults.
BAR and Burton aren't rarely a match at all lol
They're decent on hardcore servers
Hardcore also abandons balance entirely
Yeh
I've been playing the BAR and the Burton a bit recently
They seem to be the support class's assault weapons
Maybe its just been too long since I played bf1 but id still take any smg over them for cqc
My issue with the BAR is the somewhat lackluster damage, and quite wide spread
Small mag
Thats well and good if I was playing assault but like I said I love support for LMGs, ammo, and explosives
BAR storm is pretty accurate
I main annihilator, small magazines mean nothing to me lol
I get the ammo and explosives but I don't understand why you like lmgs with your playstyle.
What's his play style?
Eyy, that's my (current) playstyle
Which makes sense since you main annihilatior

I'm just surprised
It seems like you've never heard of aggressive LMG play when it's been in BF for years
I'm sure it's not hard to find people in any BF community that do it
Funny thing is tho
I used to do the same with the Martin Henry
Cause memes
I mean, some are more aggressive than others but theyve never outclassed other weapon types in that role since theyre, you know, machine guns
I do like how there is a tiny bit of overlap of playstyles between the classes
Assault can play more defensively with the hellregel defensive
Which is cool, but at the same time Im confused as to why I would pick assault when playing defensively
Medic can midrange snipe or close range "brawl"
Support can snipe and assault
Scout
Well
Yeah
Best defense is a parabellum low weight 
Ironsniping is the best play style prove me wrong
Sorry, I agree to much to even attempt it
1906 factory is better play
More people should embrace their inner Finn
But that's basically iron sniping lite
I do with bolt action carbines were more of a thing.
Like, we get the nagant rifle, which had no scopes in ww1 and several short variants, and there is no carbine
See, if DICE made their damage output more "monotone"(I can't think of the correct word). They would be more suitable for the game
Made the damage range more of a gradual slope downwards
Rather than low close up, high medium range, and low far range
Make them, have great damage close, decent damage mid, and meh damage far
Yeah thats a good point, why dont carbines at least change the sweet spot.
Cause they use the exact same ammo as the scout rifles
Are you guys sure the ACW-R is the best carbine in bf4?
I keep losing gunfights with that thing
So like, just change the damage model for them
Lets be real sweet spots arent based in reality
Neither is DICEs sense of continuity
Yeah that was bizzare
Yeah, lemme use a pre ww2 model of gun in 1915
"Shortly...before...WWII"?
Yes
I'm currently on too much of my meds
