Don't switch gadgets tho
ye
do switch gadets
that way the moron driving the mav i just spawned in wont run over the fucking red blinking light object
Pff nah it probably wasn't there to see.. he has to have a gunner who stops me running up and lunge mining š¤£
You're a horrible person. š¤£š¤£š¤£
Very nice
I feel like, the AT mine isnāt too bad to T1. Nobody ever expects them in this game.
Da fuq.. i wanna play against the team you play against lol
It's a grind like any other BUT it felt faster than the recoilless
awww, thank you
As far as AT tiering goes anyway
Less kills being stolen
Exactly
Canāt have your destroy stolen if you kill them in 1 hit. 
Two mines and you got yourself any ground vehicle in the game
Two rockets and you have .. nothing lol
Yeah but I'm just assuming someone will take it before the second hits lol
As is usually the case
True
Assist counts as kill when?
When I was grinding T1 with the M5 and Lis I would continue shooting enemy vehicles they just bailed from. Easy destroys
I wish man. 
Indeed. Thatās an old strat these days
Something like that
I remember there was a challenge in BF1 to destroy the infantry boats in the turning tides dlc. And you could just shoot the beached ones. People had such a hard time with that challenge. But I just shot the empty ones.
So often for me it didnāt count even 1 second after 
When T1āing Lis
Think you had to destroy like 10, and I did that in one game of operations on Cape Helles
Bummer š¦
The worst is when theyād bail out like right after they get hit. And by the time you reload itās too late
At the least ~50 destroys the rocket started to kill the passengers out as well
I didnāt really have that with Lis. Does it every time with the M5. But I hardly ever aimed for the cockpit with her
I killed a super hind pilot twice with the G-84
Recoilless, like the 30 mm, does a massive amount of passenger splash damage
has anyone killed someone with self destruct ranger
G84 picking that pilot is great but you just don't get those incidental passenger kills the same way
Iāve been killed by friendly Ranger destructing after their owner died.
Iāve killed passengers out of transport choppers. But never drivers.
And more than once
Iāve only ever killed the pilot of a chopper once. And it was in Bad Company 2 Vietnam lol
Same with Anghel crates, where they put it behind the only cover to an objective and lands on one or more players
Ive seen snipers sniping the driver out
What grind my gears harder is how Dice made the crate worse, first if you died to it you could be revived, now you get perma-death
I have. its fun
6 more till t1
Nice. Next bt game for sure
You got this
I currently only have weapons in T1, T3 or no tier at all 
And most T3 and no Tier at all are Vault weapons
Just few days got my only T2 to T1
good job
what vault weapons should i try the m16 or the m416? almost finish 2 task to unlock the m16.
m416 is better but vault weapons are kinda poopy
XM8 is pretty good
Only non Vault weapons I have left that arenāt T1 are:
MP28, PF51, NVK-P125,
MCS-880, GVT 45-70 and NVK-S22
I'm looking for PS4 team members to squad up with
All vault weapons are poopy
If only all battefield games had bots
I want to play hardline but the game is dead
Need to download BC2 and start it to check my level 
As my current Discord description has all my BF levels except BC2ās
Only remember it being above 30
I was only around 35-36
maybe 36
Took forever to level up in that game
Yeah
But I also didnāt grind as much back then as I do now.
And I think they reduced the xp needed near the end though?
Not sure tbh
Just a hunch
The game was plagued by level 50ās towards the end.
As I remember taking ages to level up once and when I did the next level up went so much faster
IF ONLY
they had
ROBOTS
Sadly I only have two BFās where I got to max rank, BC1 and BF3
to keep the game somewhat relevant for offline
Well⦠you can see it in my description 
guess ill stick the 2042 weapons then?
Frag grenades bounce like they are basketballs ahaha
Yeah for whatever reason the throwable velocity in the new mode is crazy high
I threw a frag nade.. hit like a panel or something like 20 or 30m and bounced back to me.. even went past my position lol
im sure it was done on purpose
Zain mastery 8... slow is smooth and smooth is... slow
was it really necessary for them to disable auto grenade throw?
Hum?
if you press the grenade key, it just equips it and it'll throw automatically after the animation is done
back then, you press the key and it instantly throws it
Mine is auto..
Well yeah its more realistic i think.. but still throws it auto.. its like 1 sec
You can hear the pin going out and thats it
maybe that's specific character, idk
in portal, with bf3 and BC2, they have delays
really annoying
Ah i dunno. I only play AoW
I donāt want this event to end
Had some rather interesting latency when I played earlier
Do wish it had a bit more vehicles tho
128 bt tho
Good enough for me
Now i donāt have to wait for the latino server of 128 rush to go back up on portal
just applied to 3 colleges š¦¾
128 bt is just chaos lol
128 bt is legendary
ITS 128BT what do you mean!!!!!
although at least 128 bt has less nade spam tham rush xl lol
lol
meant nice to colleges
thank you
good luck
IDC
when it says a combination of BT and rush, I expect to see
so far, only one capture points
@wide shore I see you mf
Where did it say combination?
I remember the description mentioning it
We just got ass blasted
Oh yeah hard core
Only thing I liked about it was how easily it was to flank
Bro tbh our team was ass
Kept going behind the oblivious snipers on hills
I couldnāt get any airbursts on B. They had like 1000 APSās
As they were too tunnel visioned to the objective and the hill other side of it
Im grinding zain t1 then i probably wont even use the t1 skin.
Or use it 1 or 2 times
Iāll use it, until he gets a good free skin
Same with everything, specialists, guns, vehicles
I like this zain skin
I have all primary weapons t1 (minus mcs and the rorsch) and 2 secundaries and i dont use the t1 skin in any of them lol
Well after 2 months they finally added the pbx skin I wanted
fr
should i get that pbx skin man
god damn my money...
You can buy it for 750 boins
Pbx has been good it's personally imo the second best smg behind the p90
agreed, although k30 isnt bad either
I put the T1 on everything, except on few guns that I had some cool looking skins already, like the Legendary purple skin for the SWS-10
PP-29 is solid.
whats a good character skin that can fit the pbx skin š³
Idk I run darker cosmetics
boris legendary is pretty dark
i swear sometimes i feel like ppl are actively sabotaging the team, someone gave the enemy team a fully spec super hind like who dafq does that
someone on my team earlier drove an LATV into a crowd of teammates, and got out before it hit, killing all of us
People who care about kd to much
They don't wanna die when the heli is low so they jump out then the enemy takes it and repairs it
funny you mentioned that the idiot that gave the enemy the super hind ended getting farmed by the super hind
the worst part is its on breakthrough the enemy wasnt supposed to have air vehicles but nvm because some idiot gave them one
push canceled
My team lost on defense lmao
Why can I never get a good team
How do you lose on defense on this map
you a fisherman? because thats a whole lotta fisheye 
no that's just my curved super ultrawide monitor
the ending part is lowkey infuriating
hipfire with that rof and its still a laser..wtf dice
Well first impression after not playing for 3 weeks. Game is annoying. All the new players are spamming explosives and no one is reviving
common k8 user W
I bled out after 3 30 second timers
lol
YES! i love it when my game randomly freezes and crashes in the middle of a match!
is there a reason portal has gotten zero big updates
cause its a lost cause
theyre working on vault weapons probs
portal has potential still
but they literally do nothing
not while people use it for xp farms
i agree.
dumb as hell
yet theyve done nothing to stop it
actually technically they have done something to stop it, back when EMP farms were popular, they nerfed the shit out of how much xp emps gave
because everything they've done to stop it has either gotten bad feedback from the community or has just led XP farmers to find another way
but now there's objective capture farms and ammo farms
Whatchyall doin
Noice
After I was done using the railgun, I turn my attention to the SVK marksmen rifle and started using it. I'm gonna have some time using the SVK rifle, I already unlock most of the attachments and I haven't unlock the extended mag, I'm only 128 kills and I need 180 kills to unlock it
why do i have to verify and validate my files every time i load the game up to get my audio back
I'm fixing to either play some 2042 for the first time in forever, or I might play some HLL.
i just hit windows button when i launch and it fixes it 
ive done that
ive restarted the entire game itself
ive set the audio in game to come to my headphones. only way to get audio is to validate files
ingame audio in/out is just for voice chat
bro is him
its getting annoying. lol. i uninstalled cause the game kept crashing and now i come back to this lol
probs a good idea to submit a bug report on the forums
I thought you were emphasizing how you were pronouncing "nah" before I looked the literal two inches up my screen to see what you were actually talking about
Because I am a dumbass
dont be sad
kfc?
sure.
hahahahaha
kfc map in 2042????????????
nah, maccas in 2042
maccas map would go crazy tbh
(what is maccas)
McDonalds
Anyways
why call it maccas
can someone explain why the throwable velocity is so high in BT Chaos
It annoys me in particular only because it makes C5 spamming viable again
And I hate C5 spammers
What would be the fast food chain in BF?
GTA has Clucking Bell
CoD has Burger Town
Rush Chaos fnb a while ago was rush with movement speed and proj velo increase
in australia, we call mcdonalds, maccas
interesting
Because of the "Mc"
Itās all āprojectilesā, even ammo crates
I know loll
zoom ammo crate across the map
Which tbh I don't mind more box throw range
Its nice when I wanna toss meds or ammo to someone
But
Man I just have a hard time aiming grenades
Iāve actually survived all frags during that event because they fly so far past me 
skill issue lowkey
like when I want my nade to curve down
which I usually count on
But then it just sails off past the enemy in cover and nails the neighbor's dog
makes throwing knives more op
This is true
The GVT feels quite usable as well with that projectile speed
Does it affect bullet velocity too?
I didn't notice a difference really
Especially when using something like the VCAR
That has generally slow velocity
Hows OCE server pop like?
last gen or next gen
Are you talking to me?
yes.
im on PC
should be decent then
Bet what game mode should I play i cant even remember what i tried i think TDM but it was very dead like 3 people on each team
CQ or BT
yeah
Thanks I downloaded BF1 thinking I'd have better hope there but nah i will try 2042 again
gl
just realized the legendary skin for the latv4 technically protects you from getting shot from the back doesnt it??/ wtf is this p2w lol
It affects all projectal speeds, and bullets are the main projectiles in shooters
technically but technically not
"projects up" lol
you can shoot through it
how?
some of the skins for the latv are missing the boxes on the back which allows ppl to headshot the driver and gunner
the legendary skin covers the back part completly
really? because i tried to kill an enemy with that skin and it didnt work
i mean still, lowkey p2w coz now u cant see their heads lmao
so now ur kinda guessing
maybe im missing i guess
rather than actually seeing their heads to shoot them
rework jets
buff?
The LATV4's hitbox is open on the rear on all models I believe
(thats what i just said)
@rocky kraken , u want jets to be buffed?
Aight look here buddy
no
I'm mid DnD session right now
ill look over there
oh ok
lol
fair
Then what are you doing here? 
bruh lowkey want them Jdam bombs in the game
Waiting for my turn to come up in combat right now lol
you want jets to have bombs? bruh
is joe attacking your balls?
u havent played bf4?
well we have leaked to get a SU-70 Bomber Drone, similar to the B2/21 (but unmanned)
i remeber jets in bf4 being opaf
its on the loading screen
especially if the pilot is really good
oh fr nice
Most likely a similar call in like BFV artillery/V-1
yeah and so were the minibirds lmao
if you pay attention to the "Connecting to online services" page, you can see it flying through the sky
oh sickk
thank u zain
yes
yes
i wonder why
they have 1 jet slot for every map
like in bf 4
we had 2 jets on each side
cause dice moment
but now we only get one type of jet and one of them for each side
like bruh
we literally have bigger maps
128 players
at least they split the jet into its own slot with S3
yeah true that
(yet we dont get jets in bt, even 128p)
@hexed mango
they are expecting the gpu to arrive today
epic
I've fallen in love with Zain
but wouldve been good to have a similar thing to bf4 with a stealth jet and an attack jet. some good wingman plays wouldve been going on
no fuck off
almost at bp 100, just 5 more levels to go
you know what i meant

lmao nice
95 rn
and i got a double xp that's still active so i'm using it in bt 128
Yeah I just got a double XP as well
i just got the last(?) BP booster unlocked.. do i continue to casper drone this horrible event for xp farming 
Get his tier 1.
I fully plan to get casper to T1 by the end of this event yeah
you just called BT 128p horrible 
I'm 300 away from Irish tier 1 at least.
nice
i dont make objective truth...just call it out
naH
I think I'm gonna try and get a big dent in Zain's progress with this event
way i T1'd zain
But honestly maining Irish might be a good way to farm that
Nice echo!
1600
As 40ā¢40=1600
sometimes your brilliance scares me 
Then I should be ~150 kills/assists away from T1 Zain
I still dunnow how I had him done so quick.
After that and after v3.2 Crawford grind and Javelin abuse with GVT and NVK-S22 with proficiency 
because you no lifed the game when he dropped?
I'm just the server dumbass I guess lol
Way you should T1 crawford
crawfish
crawdad
Dude I had studies so I couldn't fully dedicate.
and you still finished that quick??? when do you sleep
Hopefully theyāll add his new perk to count for his mastery

way check twitter
Because his Vulcan is really bad outside of close quarters where you get the drop on the enemies.
20k damage with stationary weapons, this includes tank mgs would be nice.
v3.2 probably dropping on the 24th, 26th or 31st 
what do you see way? see what? see who?
i predict 17th
Nah
tuesdays
It was said to come late January, 17th is still mid January
20 something if they said late January
"towards the end of January"
last i checked, 17 being 55% of the way through jan is towards the end
that guys math
17/31 = 0.548
DICE dont know math if they cant balance the game
54.8%* 
balancing the game is not a math issue, its a skill issue
no
0.548387097
rounds to 0.5484
or 0.55
or 55%
Certified DICE Moment
ladies please youre both wrong
yes
how the fuck am i going to sleep knowing that gpu arrives tomorrow
sleep so that it can be tomorrow
What are they buffing and nerfing
irish aps
ez, just assume it will have been dropped and broken so you dont have to worry bout it 
buffing my antidepressants
same
nerfing my depression
i can fix it
Terrible idea
my depression continues to be op
Think about sleep being time skip 
They make it easier for people to abuse the shit out of explosives
i mean everything is being reworked, its the class rework
YAAAAAAAAAAY
where were you when i needed halp with my 3070 š
more boom
selling my 3080
Bomb spam in BF1 was actually nice compared to the shit in 2042


that can be adjusted like in bf1...but the fact the APS has no internal cool down between shots and unlimited ammo is fucking borked
concur, i do
I am a tin can man dawg, anything that nerfs explosives and buffs tanks the better
Swear i remember them saying the upcoming update will be late Jan. So maybe 24th?
Tanks back in beta and at the start of the game were preem, i will die on this hill
nah legit its just the shit fans evga used in it
they click when turning on and off.. electronic noise and it sounds like the fan is grinding against the heat sink or shroud
after RMAing the card...getting a new one (aka used) and having it do the same thing i just sent it back and kept my original.. support legit gives me a youtube link on how to set a custom fan profile
seeing as 3.1 was on a monday @ 9am utc, i would expect 16/17th or 23/24th
just install msi afterburner
comes with a pretty standard fan curve
idk why 3.1 wasnt on a tuesday at 8am utc but whatever
i just did it with the evga program...but the point was "you mean i cant have this card in silent mode most of the time because it will fluctuate between on and off? wow what a nice design"
Idk how people stand Liz as a real concept
Lis*
Who cares
i drink that
i have a simple flow chart
does lis annoy vehicle users? -> yes? good 
Cringe
shame,

i mean give me the javelin so i can spam that at shitters too
Itās gonna hit hard
1 shot a tank? id laugh
If it has the same stats as currently in portal
then reload for another kill
how did that work in bf4...if it was soflam'd the lock on was faster?
Anyone having problems getting servers to load in 2042 on PS4?
Rear 88
Side 71
Front 55
in Portal
the...top down attack rocket?
Dunno, couldnāt do it solo
top down should honestly deal more damage to tanks
what, it doesnt lock on to unoccupied vehicles?
even for the M5
My guess top down would be same as rear, so 88
You donāt even gotta try
Ahh the launch week
that would be logical...but you know
It does, but I canāt Soflam and Javelin at the same time solo
Okay, you have 64 players on the enemy team.
How many of them (before Liz was released), has access to a-t
64
point proven
Early access actually.
HOW IS THERE NOT 1 IRISH THERE WTF holy shit these enemies you get
IRISH's aps is ridiculously powerfull honestly
Honestly, that was the only game people werenāt using him
how many people used AT before lis...or aa? barely a squad out of 64 
Look at them fly!
Bro all i sayin it was fun to farm xp on top of rooftop capture points with tanks
Making popcorn
Dude I had 8 people with 2 mag dumps with the m16a3 and it didn't record.
I want to cry.
Damn
Cry on my shoulder way
Last time you said you got 9 people with one mag 
Share with me
he lies ..smh

To be fair I can't remember.

today
You know⦠Bmacās profile pic has a better smiley than the smiley Dice swapped to BC2 portal due to copyright 

whelp starting off that defending match at the C point with 1 already taken from us i go 0-3...ima find a new lobby
I shot through multiple people thought I killed a single person.
8-9 very probably?
Maybe more? I can't remember. Again.
ik the changed it but what copyright were they abiding by? fucking watchmen?
Yeah, well now tanks are literal paper boxes
The smiley company
thats bs
Some French company
nice. another reason to hate french people 
should have changed the icon to a razor 
Way, tell me 3 reasons to use the Warhawk over standard barrel on the NVK-P125 
True except the TOR that thing is a beast if you got the right loadout and a good gunner
I dunno..
Sundance moment
Just sit at the back of the map and snipe, good luck pushing forward with a t28
Too bad it reduces accuracy and hipfire 
Yeah though the laser helps a little.
Plus you got the rest of the ENTIRE enemy team trying to kill you
Bro i got people hating on me for sniping helis and condors with the TOR in BT once. It was fun.
Wish it had a higher zoom scope than 1.25x only
And Rorsch and GVT doesnāt have the hold breath option in the 6x scope 
roadkill is still funny
They didnāt look both ways before crossing the road
hi
ok soooo i legit cannot figure out how to counter a dog fight, i keep dying no matter how hard i turn or no matter what moves i do to shake
any ideas?
I'd reccomend bailing out
why??
Because planes are stinky
someone threw a fucking incendiary nade at me in parachute
slow down going into the turn, then hit the throttle once you're in it. also if you're on kbm, when doing really hard turns, don't use your mouse, instead switch to arrow keys since arrow keys are basically just 100% lift as long as you press down arrow
Controlling a plane with my mouse is so bad, I literally cannot turn.
Controller?
oh
numpad??? not arrow keys?
yep
8 4 6 and 0
i do calculations alot so numberpad is normal for me
it works the same
how slow?
woah
the su 57 beats it in manouverability
just lightly tap S
except for the fact that the F-35 can basically stop in mid air almost instantly
of my mouse
essentially
Battlefield 7
I like going low over a hill and hitting vtol, waiting for them to pass, then punching the accelerator to get back up to speed
or go around a corner and hit vtol
i feel like an asshole rn i know one of the weekly missions is to spot using caspers drone so im using the fxm to ruin their day lol
so....did we lose because of the time limit despite being inside the last objectives? 
Rao is the specialist that hacks things right?
its so easy to get it done, like you can do it in 3 minutes or less
yes
thanks!
to the guy who helped me in vc thank you
i got 3 kills on a su 57
1 kill on a heli
just got another kill on a su 57
4 kills
3 ground targets one su57
goddamn your a miracle worker
and the map prep trick is super helpful cuz i no longer go blind
hahaha thats good to hear
keep it up my man
it just takes some practice and gametime in the jet
the nwt 50?
the totally useless anti vehicle sniper with the introduction of the railgun? 
they need to up the damage of the ntw
Honestly, the NTW is still good because it's just a simple point and shoot. Railgun still has to charge which is really annoying
yea but the railgun's insane projectile velocity makes it a lot easier to hit far off helis
but long range + fast moving air vehicles you can charge shoot charge shoot way better than the nwt
plus killing the pilots is really easy with the railgun when aiming at the cockpit lol
Is there one day in this discord where you donāt bitch 
yea u rite every time bmac talk he complanin lol
ntw standard projectile is still a one shot on humans from pretty far
like at least 60m i would say
its 100m max now, down from 150
apparently people bodying enemies from 150 with it was too broken 
did u find solution?
Finally got the weapon of mass destruction tag 
10 ground vehicle kills in a round was a BITCH
bruh the mp5 sub is a menace, its insane
Iābe gotten the NTW to tier 1, thing absolutely slaps infantry
i mean sure, but its intended role has been nerfed/overshadowed now
It serves a similar role but itās hybridized, where it lacks in anti vehicle it makes up for in ease of use against infantry
It doesnāt have to be better in all situations, It has higher burst damage still
holy crap actually won a game on nordvik chaos
the end is the worst, but i think its because people dont revive or flank
team quality rng, but now its even harder 
Besides the M5 whatās another viable assault rifle?
YOYOYOY
Wild
Sfal is kinda op
Fr? I been losing hella gunfights with the Ak
i wouldnt use sights on it, from my own experience some bullets vanish or dont seem to fire at all, i just use iron sights
Plus it has absolutely no recoil
You could just shoot it not adjust and itās not moving
Yea
Not every time but I agree and Iāll keep doing it

bmad

Diff breedšŖ
@kindred flint you really gonna just take this abuse
there is actually 1 person that is always complaining
Mercury
and mostly GM (hehe)
I better grind the SVK marksman rifle even it's gonna take some time for me to get used to it. Not like other sniper rifles, this marksman rifles it may not be a sniper rifle at least you can try to use them like a sniper rifle because it has scope to use and it's also long range rifle too.
bsv: what, we're supposed to be used like snipers?
Unintentionally I unlocked the Green laser sight for the VCAR.
green laser kinda bad tho 
Hip fire on the move with red is kind of the same if not a little better.
I don't need the recoil reduction either but it helps.
Close combat doesn't kick particularly hard.
do i work on a new specialist? or do i stick to zain 
Boris
pass
Boris
ill do sundance seeing as she is my next closest
ewwww french
bro how have they not fixed the fucking visual glitch with the grenades yet?
and why when i jump out of my wingsuit does 3 not do anything
DICE Issue
@arctic grove funny seeing you there
did you just get off
omg i wish i recorded it but as attack on 128p bt, i rushed A2 as dozer, went into the like idk military base room, and killed like 10 people with the shield
wtf
i got killed by "explosive damage"
uh why did my shield do 20 damage instead of killing this guy
Pretty sure you have to be like...pretty much face to face with them to kill them
yeah nvm it was the ricochet
Oh
i totally forgot that existed
i was still pretty close to the guy and smashing him tho
but i might of just been out of the hitb ox
I kinda wish they gave dozer some kind of buff where kind of like call of duty,when you melee them and they try jumping and running,you pretty much lock stick to them
that would make him completely overpowered lol
heās already annoying to deal with as is
They could actually make dozer a proper shield character.
^
what
dozer is pretty fun tho lol
Instead of relying on idiots to get kills with a shield you should stand in front of teammates and draw fire.
give him mastery progress for blocking damage
"Damage absorbed and assisted cover kills as Dozer"
š
@wary sleet
For tier 1.
Yeah but then at that point he's pretty much just the tank which is cool but,I mean I want to be able to also bash people with the shield
And then an assisted cover kill being the single point.
Or maybe the other way around.
Push for teammates to sit behind you and award more progress for that.
Either way,dozer is a cool character and useful for absorbing shots but all enemies have to do is run and jump around and shoot you
Ye.
I was thinking. Press aim to expand his shield.
You cannot sprint.
But you have more protection on your sides.
Could also give him a secondary shield mode where he doubles the width of the shield but canāt sprint or melee with it and his walking speed is halved until he reverts to normal shield mode
Lol yeah Way exactly
Get rid of the one kill melee bullshit.
2 hits seems fair to me like in cod but 1hk is annoying af
So basically make him a shield and only absorb shots
i mean his ohk is what makes him even slightly playable rn tho
Heās an assault character so he should be mobile cover for helping squads push but I donāt think they should totally remove his shield melee just make it less cancer
@arctic grove my game crashed.
Then why even give him a melee in the first place or put him in assault?
Thatās why I think they need to improve his ability to provide his squad cover while pushing
true true
but tbh he is so useless rn besides pushing and killing (which he can do but gets killed rather easily) that i think removing that from him would just defeat the incentive of using him
obviously making it 2hk doesnt remove it entirely, but i think the ohk just makes it somewhat more viable
Yeah at the current moment.
well at least fix his mastery progression itās stupid
Battlefield moment
If they incentivised his shield to actually provide cover he would actually be useful.
they could instead remove the super slow shield turning and improve the hitreg on it then 2hk would feel fair
yeah but he is an assault player 

i see
I'd just rather them buff his melee than his shield. Either way it's not like you're going to walk into the open area and tank shots
honestly, fuck riot shields, why have them in games at all.
His flak jacket is meant to make sure he isn't so easily taken out.
i mean the fact that he cant turn very well, so he gets shot easily in the ass is what makes him annoyingly easy to take down
If only rifle rounds could pierce his shield
I can imagine a proper scenario of 3 dozers pushing with an extended shield with a supplemented assault.
i mean his existence is an annoyance, so making it so he can turn quickly would make it worse.
Down in either side of exposures hallways.
I can also imagine a better game, in which Dozer doesn't exist.
Dozer doesn't have to not exist he can just be balanced better.
I agree. They are a tactical option, but they more so belong in games like rainbow six not casual respawn shooters. Too many fps players are crutch shield users now so there would be outrage if shields were suddenly removed
he is a pretty shity op rn
yes but it would be way better if he didn't.
yup
sure he could be balanced better but how about we just don't bother and get rid of 'em.
I mean heās not going away so we kinda just have to accept him
Nah I like the specialists
I don't care about shields that protect people from their front as long as they properly supplement it.
bruh the ricochet damage is so small 
Black ops 2 had an assault shield but I didn't see too many people complain about it.
I mean at least in this game the riot shield doesnāt stay on your back when your not using it
true that
You have to actively put yourself at a disadvantage to use it
See now. If Dozer could actually plant his shield in a similar style I would love that too.
That's actually what I was thinking about
It got about the same amount of hate that riot shields typically get in CoD.
What are you on about?
That would be epic
I don't see the issue with shields if they're a two hit kill and you can swoop by and kill them.
I am turtle.
Or ya know just throw C4 at him
wtf someone just shot me through my shield
Oh god I loved doing that on black ops 2.
I see the issue with shields because they basically advertise that you can't shoot for shit so you're just gonna be an annoying piece of shit to compensate.
Nah something I'd like to see dozer be able to do and only because I haven't seen a battlefield nor a cod game do this is allow him to wield a pistol with a riot shield
You'd have assault shield players with the shield up so you'd throw the broken ass c4.
If they didn't have flak they're dead.
Some ran fast hands with dual wield pistols but they weren't too difficult to take out because the hipfire cone wasn't in their favour.
Infact I used to run around with one on my back with a suppressed peacekeeper on hardcore.
I mean you could balance dozer by letting AP rounds pierce his shield
A lot of riot shield users often ran Overkill with shotgun secondaries because once you run the Riot Shield dignity is basically out the window.
Shotguns are funny because they make people mad
It's one of the primary reasons I dislike Overkill as a perk.
Engineer with the SWAT 556 and an MMS scanner.
It's annoying as fuck.
You can see their shields and then their outline through the wall.
And sicne the SWAT had same penetration as an MG.
You can easily take them out.
Good
I originally used to use overkill with a sniper and SMG but now I just run a pistol with a good loadout
I don't like running overkill because I'd rather have a pistol I can quickly swap to.
bruh i got shot through the front of the shield again.
Speaking of snipers,the sws 10 skin I got was honestly worth the coins I had to pay
I mean shotguns are balanced in video games (Insurgency sandstorm not included)
Like, i've never liked shotguns in FPS games that aren't Arena shooters, so no single gun can one shot in CQB.
no they're not.
sure.
You can simply out range them
Donāt like it donāt go in CQB because shotguns without slugs canāt reach out to distance
"YoU cAn SiMpLy OuTrAnGe ThEm" try outranging some rando just running around a corner when you're trying to push an objective you fuck.
Donāt attack me because of your skill issue
shotguns irl have such good range compared to video games, and it pisses me off
it's not a fucking skill issue.
Iāve succeeded in my trolling
:I
play insurgancy sandstorm for shotgun range
i mean i dont want shotguns to pop heads from 100m lol but the fact that guns like MCS exist with 0 range pisses me off
Insurgency is just insane you can snipe people with buckshot
The MCS in 2042 is very funny to me
imagine using buckshot
its all slug
I've used slugs in BF1
BF1 slug shottys weāre so fun
battlefield slugs have mostly been very useless
It's the only way i've felt like Shotguns were balanced because you ever try consistently hitting oneshots in close quarters with slugs?
If you have, it's not easy.
I mean you could if you got good aim or were lucky with hip fire
yeah. That's the thing. You gotta have good aim.
You don't need that when using shotguns with buckshot.
That's what makes them balanced and fair.
confusing how the 12m auto is so accurate wth slugs and also uses the buckshot crossair

Well the 12M Auto is an abomination.
it shouldn't exist at all.
Buckshot shotgun is based
thats why im abusing it
I think DICE were just drunk.
I wish a game would implement shotgun shells that actually work like shotgun shells do because to a certain point a shotgun shell even filled with buckshot would act like a slug
I don't mind shotguns in COD due to the proportionate TTK.
I do.
lockwood 300
My expedite 12 with dragons breath and the fast fire bolt is laughing
12m auto probably could go for a slower rpm
Using a shotgun is more an exercise in positioning and speed than marksmanship.
or a reload nerf
mostly because Overkill exists and getting killed by some fucking rando running a short 725 build as a secondary because he's ass at the game is fucking annoying to me.
Bang bang or big BOBOOM through a single pull of a the trigger.
Kicks like crazy cause of course it would.
But yes.
The ultimate test in shotgun skill is the good ol' double barrel.
I loved the enforcer class in hardline
CAR takes 50 damage so you team up with your friend and one frame cars.
And every game should have one.
Enforcer was my favourite.
I didn't use shotguns that much in Hardline.
I enjoyed the SCAR H.
I do miss clearing frenchies in the trenches with my war crime stick in BF1 though
I uninstalled BF1, I couldn't deal with it anymore.
I tried to find a server and the game fucked itself on console now
Dead as a doornail in Australia.
Except for two very dedicated custom servers with the absolute worst tastes in settings.
Because of course it'd be the killfarming shitters that'd still be sticking around.
I want chemical HEATFS shells to come to battlefield tanks
what, BF1 or Hardline?
BF1, mostly.
ah
There are still a few servers running in NA. Mostly the Salty Noobs and BUDz servers.
I like them, they're okay.
Itās one of the reasons Iād never move to Straya. Playing any multiplayer game there must be awful cos of the lag
The average connection to parts of the country are better.
Isnāt it also hot there
Pings are fine as long as you're dealing with OCE servers.
I usually get a flat 11ms.
Min is 5 ping and most I think is 35 to 39?
Hardline's dead dead. Like, ultra dead, there used to be a single active NA server for Hardline run by the HAND clan. Except that's gone now. So there are no active servers at all whatsoever.
Nah
But once you get out of country, oh boy.
It's warm.
Where most people live it has a nice climate
I think DICE should run official servers for BF Hardline again. And also just sell the game for $20 on Steam.
It also can get cold there
I did fly in an American server once and strafed everyone. Safe to say they were not happy.
Selling BF1 with all DLC for like five bucks did nothing to revive it.
The average temp there is way lower than here
i mean i would like to think it did, servers seemed very populated over here.
No way you gotta say meth
I really think they should've just made the BF1 DLC be merged with the base game, like they did with the French maps.
So people would actually play mixed.
I know Iāve shared this before but people donāt get how big Australia really is. Here it is next to the US
I think my level was the highest out of everyone even combined.
And itās mainly desert
What
small
You can lead a horse to water but you sure as shit can't make it drink. It's one thing for the DLC to be free, but getting them to actually take that offer...
And yet east and west coast varies from 50 to 90 ping when they connect.
Alaska being like half the size of Australia
Iāve played cod with Australians before and theyāre nice people with awful ping
Yet here someone as far from WA can connect to a server in Sydney have 39 ping.
I get like 195ms to West US servers.
Alaska is big
I get 180 ping.
It's unplayable in a game with projectile physics.
Really every time I play with them they always yell something about me being a cunt and I canāt understand anything else
What about when it frequently connects you guys to Asian servers š¬
Games these days have lag compensation
I've never seen a single asian server active
I connected to Japanese BT server and got 140 to 150.
To me thatās high
When I play on east coast server I get 90-100ms ping
I don't like playing with over 100 ping on anything.
Cos you were lagging and they couldnāt hit you loooooool
I've beaten people who were on the exact same ping as I and there was little issue.
It was a little scary because of the ping but BAR go kill.
The BAR was so good
Which is exactly why I got it to 25K!
I liked the BAR in BF1.
Iām in a breakthrough match itās so chaotic as the name suggests
Bf5 BAR was better since it was just a thompson with more range.
Dont@make me want to install bf5 you guys keep mentioning it on this server
factual, but as someone that lives in Sydney, i wanna let u all know that no one or at least not very many people live in the middle area of australia. the bulk of the population (about 26 million) live on the coast
fr fuck the middle of the states
