i think its bound to the ragdoll system or something cause sometimes bodies go flying if killed

[copper vapor]

oh yeah that happened to me a few times in the beta

slightly brush against an angled piece of geometry = yeet

[static axle]

yup

best part is you sometimes see enemies pop up above the houses when they get launched

atleast we dont have curb-gate 2.0

that shit was funny as fuck in bf4 "what you mean this soldier cannot step up this 5cm tiny ledge?"

[oblique belfry]

right now what i see the most is "engineer and his pancakes"

fucking going on top of tanks and throwing anti tank mines and sledgehammering them

Taste of Victory (@victory_taste)

This is one of the most embarrassing moments I've ever experienced in a video game. I genuinely cringed during this cutscene.

This is the biggest media franchise in the world. This is inexcusable for Gen 10. It NEEDS to have voice acting. https://t.co/NUu8xvtFtT

QRT: NintyPrime
I discovered over the last 24 hours that so many people want voice acting in Pokemon. I don’t disagree with you - I enjoy voice acting in games.

Didn’t realize the desire for Pokemon to have it was this strong. Why? I kinda like that my kids have to read when they play lol.

and people are racing them now

only bf community can be like that

why even give it sound effects this is awful

"it would cost so much" buddy it's made by nintendo

i've seen games funded by bread crumbs have good voice acting

look at this bs

[oblique belfry]

[static axle]

[oblique belfry]

are killcams a thing in bf

or is it just camera pan

to killer's location

[oblique belfry]

[static axle]

in softcore you get the silhoutte

in hc you get just general direction

[oblique belfry]

[copper vapor]

camera pan, as it's been since bf1

[oblique belfry]

also i've just noticed after watching this vid

[static axle]

"nuh uhh"

[oblique belfry]

the "kill sound" sounds too similar to bf1 one

[copper vapor]

the headshot kill sound, yea

which is also in bf2042

[oblique belfry]

[copper vapor]

I should reinstall a bf game

which one tho

[oblique belfry]

[static axle]

you just get a silhoutte in normal, dont know if far enough if it will give just a box

[oblique belfry]

[opal star]

Martini henry galore!

[copper vapor]

if it were possible to buy the game I'd get it just to play against bots

[static axle]

in hc its just a box to the general area

[static axle]

[copper vapor]

on the servers I played it was the type 38 arisaka being spammed, because of its short sweet-spot range

30-50 meters I think

the noobs loved using it.

[hexed kernel]

not to brag or anything but i do have the peacemaker in bf1

i can't kill anyone with it but i do have it

[oblique belfry]

nerd

[copper vapor]

it's only brag-worthy if you did it without a guide

[opal star]

It's a great rifle, but the martini henry is the best iirc. Was a blast using that thing.

[static axle]

this is what you would see in hc if killcam is enabled

kinda

[oblique belfry]

oh wtf

[hexed kernel]

listen even with a guide it took me about 12 irl hours ok??

that tiles puzzle can go to hell

[copper vapor]

I never could get it because whenever I hopped into an empty server to do the steps, it would fill up before I was finished

[opal star]

Last time i played BF1 i used the martini henry so much i ended up using it on a hunt irl, one hell of a rifle.

[copper vapor]

I'm not much of a scout player, I think I only used the springfield.

I played more as Medic or Support

[static axle]

lets say the killer is at the yellow star it could give this size box

[oblique belfry]

[static axle]

its random, it just gives you the direction

sometimes you dont even get that

[copper vapor]

also if you get headshot by the sniper with the maxed perk, you can't get revived and you don't get a killcam

[static axle]

you just die

[sour rivet]

why must they put lolipops in such annoying damn wrappers

[oblique belfry]

i see

[hexed kernel]

soooo true

[oblique belfry]

you literally pull em off

[copper vapor]

this perk system is probably the best thing BF6 did

[sour rivet]

tried

[static axle]

i dont think that even needs the perk, it just needs a pure good headshot

[sour rivet]

piece of the wrapper popped off instead

[copper vapor]

in the beta you needed to have the level 4 perk unlocked

dunno how it is now

4? or max level was 3 I don't remember

maybe in 1 too?

[oblique belfry]

i never seen bf5 that much

so cant tell

[copper vapor]

bf1 had equippable passives

[static axle]

yee

[copper vapor]

I had a passive for medic where I could "spot" downed teammates and a magic smoke grenade would go off at their location it was great.

[oblique belfry]

istg cod had a perk just like this one

i cant remember from which cod though

or was it a different game

[static axle]

rs2 had a perk to spot traps

[copper vapor]

https://battlefield.fandom.com/wiki/Specializations_(Battlefield_1)

[oblique belfry]

sniper perk 3 is a big reward ngl

headshots making people unrevivable

[copper vapor]

this was also a very good perk to use

[static axle]

it also changes the headshot symbol

[copper vapor]

yeah it's VERY good.

[static axle]

from just a white skull to a red cracked skull im pretty sure

[oblique belfry]

the question is......does it have a range limit

because can't you just slap a red dot on sniper

and kill people

[static axle]

and enemy gets "FATAL SNIPER HEADSHOT" middle of their screen

[oblique belfry]

[static axle]

yes you can

[oblique belfry]

[static axle]

[copper vapor]

all medic perks were hella fuckin good

[oblique belfry]

[hexed kernel]

ok mister xX_Sniper900_Xx

[static axle]

you can bind zeroing if zoomed to left click and use range finder to auto zero your sniper

[copper vapor]

I just used low power optics on the rare occasions where I played sniper

[static axle]

[copper vapor]

4x gives no glint iirc

6x onwards had glint

in bf1 at least

[copper vapor]

having to hold the button to do the auto-zeroing is a "balanced" way to do it but I don't like it

the 0.3 secs it takes for the auto-zero to click is enough time for the guy to either move or shoot me first

[static axle]

i mean i have in shift but its still just single button press

[copper vapor]

you don't have to hold the button to make it auto-zero?

[static axle]

no

[copper vapor]

excellent

[static axle]

[copper vapor]

that was the only gripe I had with it in the beta

[static axle]

hence bind to left click and it will insta zero it when you shoiot

[oblique belfry]

anyways

time to mirmir

hopefully this time with no toothache

There's a few cases where that happens, but it literally happens in ep 1 of the original

Goofy ahh bomber

[hexed kernel]

noooo our blimp!!!!!!!!!!!! 😭

[real aspen]

man i wish blimps were still around

they're basically cargo ships but sky

[hexed kernel]

so same

[real aspen]

cheap efficient and safe aerial transport

and requires minimal infrastructure

[upbeat verge]

bf1 or 5?

[uneven sapphire]

They're still around.

Goodyear loves them.

[real aspen]

fireworks as bonus

[nocturne aurora]

advertising iirc or is it used otherwise ?

[real aspen]

just advertising i think

remember seeing a vid on how blimps would make great cargo ships

[opal star]

Advertising and aerial filming is mostly what they're used for nowadays.

[nocturne aurora]

i know that Goodyear Blimps are used to film Sportsevents like Baseball etc

[opal star]

This and the lockheed LMH-1 might come around.

[opal star]

Yeah, other than that blimps like these tethered blimps are used in border patrol, communications, surveillance.

[real aspen]

those are glorified balloons i think

[nocturne aurora]

basicly an floating Repeating Post / Signal enhancer + as an landmark

[blazing jackal]

might get a second birth in drone age, blimp with a radar would be cheaper than big ass radar tower, also mobile

[opal star]

Floating cell towers/radar stations.

[real aspen]

i mean by construction, not function

function-wise they're really cool

[opal star]

Kind of.

[nocturne aurora]

thank god our Police Force uses Drone with NV / Heatcam for searching PPL a squad or drones can search missing PPL far quiker and ez

they found an lost child in under 4h in an forrest

[real aspen]

i wonder how high blimps can safely go

with cargo

[opal star]

I use drones for all sorts of shit, aerial imagery to hunting. When i'm at DNR we'll use them for fire surveillance and wildlife management and a plethora of other shit.

[blazing jackal]

lower than jet streams, so under 9km

[opal star]

S&R is also another thing.

[nocturne aurora]

FPV drones are nice when you want to see stuff

[opal star]

I use UAV's to spy on sea world.

[hexed stag]

like dis-orientation?

[opal star]

The brain struggles to adjust after a while on the road. You're driving for days over thousands of miles at 70+ mph.

If you're doing a team drive, even while sleeping you're going to be rocking all over the place in a bed.

Diet sucks, sleep sucks, your only time on land is ordering food from mcdonalds and taking a shower at a love's.

[blazing jackal]

np, drive a ki-car on car lane, theyre superior intown vehicles anyway

[hexed stag]

does it at least pay well?

[opal star]

Depends.

[timber oxide]

Ew, no

[opal star]

Some people make 3 grand a month and some make 15 grand a month.

If you own the truck, almost all of your earnings go to repairs.

[blazing jackal]

why no-one cooks for themselves? a lot of local truckers own a portable gas stove to get potatos with canned meat at base

[fluid trout]

I drove like a day straight once and I swear that at some point you just start losing cognition of what you're doing

[hexed stag]

I'd guess it depends on your lvl of qualification, the kind of cargo, who you work for etc

[opal star]

Some truckers might, but still, convenience.

[fluid trout]

once drove and only came to when I stopped at a gas station with a Jollibee attached to it

[opal star]

You enter a stop, weigh your trailer, take a shower and then eat. Back you go on the road or you can sleep on your hour long break.

[blazing jackal]

guess its a geography too, here you can ride for hours in siberia and no gas stops, no villages or anything more than small food stops on the way with questionable kitchen

[fluid trout]

hey, those questionable kitchens produce some of the best shit you've ever eaten

[blazing jackal]

on european part its another story, prices just fucked up

[fluid trout]

if the food stop is just a family's house that got a dining area in it, usually fire

[blazing jackal]

also trichinellosis

[fluid trout]

worst I've ever got is like burnt meat lmao

[real aspen]

why not hook up a small induction stove inside the truck

[opal star]

First time i got it was from eating undercooked bear and wolf meat.

[blazing jackal]

lol you took a longest road, on the other side traveling on trans-siberian railroad is very relaxing experience, not the fastest

[fluid trout]

tbh its probably cause I'm used to tough ass meat that you cook for way too long

[blazing jackal]

or will stay for live unless you got full body scan for capsules

happy you, we invented specific antiworm chemistry in 70s

before that - take you ibuprofen

[opal star]

When you’re driving 10–11 hours a day, time and parking are limited. Sure, you could get a small stove, but then you need groceries, space to store them, and time to cook and clean up. Most of the time it’s faster and cheaper in the moment to grab coffee, energy drinks, or fast food at a truck stop. Groceries on the road get expensive since you’re buying smaller quantities more often, and you don’t always have access to a walmart.

[onyx vigil]

Lads should I drink a beer or drink a glass of cola?

[fluid trout]

is it normal that the ERIG used on me after I got bit last week is two shots to thighs?

[blazing jackal]

you wouldnt want to see 90s russia anyways

ffxiv is the rotting one here

[real aspen]

i guess it's difficult to be a rpg without the whole ability spam thing

since having shitload of different abilities is how the rpg part is fulfiled

[copper vapor]

true

then ffxiv goes and reduces the amount of skills each class has

to "reduce bloat"

just makes the game more boring

I will always make this joke

my level 50 warrior in stormblood had more buttons to press than it did at level 80 in shadowbringers

maybe now at level 100 in the current xpac it's back to the same number

but I didn't bother checking

NOOO GEN V DIDNT RELEASE THE LAST EPISODE

now i gotta wait 5 more days

[blazing jackal]

well, wow tried to dumbing down skill trees too, are they reverted that already? looong time

[timber oxide]

Not always recommended cause your target may be moving and the background may be so much further away that it will just make you miss

[blazing jackal]

you like the idea of having the same great time, but its an illusion, youve changed as much as the game, and usually not to the best

[copper vapor]

I remember them dumbing down talent trees, not skills

[timber oxide]

Anyway I have scored my first counter sniper long shot with a shotgun slug yesterday

[copper vapor]

if that were true no one would've been playing wow classic

and ppl even asked for ffxiv classic

to which the game director replied "nightmare"

[blazing jackal]

you pressing them on kb so its the same shit

[copper vapor]

being reductive doesn't help

the game is less engaging now

less engaging, less challenging, less fun

[static axle]

True but lets say 1/10 shots is for a moving target i rather have those 9 accurate ones and 1 maybe not so accurate

[blazing jackal]

yep, i wouldnt mind if they complicate talents instead, poe style

[copper vapor]

ffxiv got so 'boring' and easy nowadays that it's now my comfort game for when I wanna turn my brain off

in the process, I help my wife gear up her character so everyone wins

[timber oxide]

Also true
I personally don't snipe much when I play Recon, I spend most of my time on the drone marking enemies and killing people with their own explosives

[static axle]

Even then we have to count in the factor where youre standing in relations to the runner. Lets say im on a roof and someone is running towards me at that point the zeroing wont matter. If im on a ground and someone is on a roof running sideways it counts

[timber oxide]

I usually don't even have a sniper or dmr equipped, either an lmg for the funny or SMG for having something actually useful

[real aspen]

put a big lmg on bipod

[static axle]

That drone explosive blowing is funny as fuck

[real aspen]

snipe with that

[marsh cargo]

Walls of text

[copper vapor]

local mexican man hates walls

[static axle]

Just follow engineer placing mines and he is " why mines explode"

[timber oxide]

Especially when you catch an engi in the act of placing mines and instakill them

[marsh cargo]

That's why we put broken bottles on them of top
Extra bad

[timber oxide]

"hey look, a free kill"

[supple lotus]

gotta be a Sab if you... dont hear... the drones whirring behind/above you

[timber oxide]

I wish I could explode friendly explosives

[real aspen]

kill yourself

i'd notice the drones by shadows

[timber oxide]

You'd be surprised how often I get completely undetected
