I find the side-arms to be dog shit. As soon as I see gas I mask up and get the fucking knife out. I've managed to turn full Rambo with the knife on alot of occasions.

Side arms suck when you ADS with it, hipfire however makes them quite good.
I'll try that out.Yesterday I used a fill clip of my pistol and didn't hit shit even though the enemy was 2 meters away from me.

Hip firing the M1911 in CQ is brutal. I tend to switch to it as a medic or Scout as soon as I enter dense terrain.

Start using 1911 and pace your shots. If you spam wildly you won't hit wide side of an barn when standing inside of said barn.

Why do Scouts look so fucking cool in their capes when they pull out their side arm and start shooting at someone?
Pleb trap!

You do realise the use of chemical warfare, in particular gas, was extremely prevalent in WW1?
Gas masks are there for a purpose. Gas grenades are fine.
Complaining about gas grenades... :lol
The Rank 10 SMG on Assault is a little too good, I think. Massive magazine size, great range, and solid damage. I'm on top of the scoreboard every single game now.
I mean, I'm not complaining, but sometimes it makes me feel a little dirty.

I've only been using incendiary nades lately. They are pretty much like gas, but they don't have a counter.
Do want to feel utter annihilation in your hands as you get super dirty each and every minute but can't stop laughing like a madman?

Gas masks are there for a reason.
I laugh when I spam them and see that people forget to put them on
With or without slugs? I haven't touched the shotties yet.Do want to feel utter annihilation in your hands as you get super dirty each and every minute but can't stop laughing like a madman?
Interesting thought :O
But gas spreads more and goes through walls.
Well in we're going to get historical , Most gas attack came from shelling not from solider throwing grenade.
In Bad Company 2, yes. BF3-4 were 1-2-3-4-5-6...
No it doesn't. Welcome to World War 1.

Wish gas was restricted to mortars or as a station, not carried by everyone.

Gas is extremely easy to counter. Like mentioned above, don't nerf them. People will wisen up and switch to incendiary. No counters and so satisfying. Great for breaking up choke points/bunkers.

also incendiary damages vehicles. i manage to destroy some with it. its may main grenade and with support you can reak havok on small hallways and choke points.
Ahh yes, damn. Need better gas!
Know your audience. Average whiner is pissed at anything that demands more than...
1. Point gun
2. Shoot
Hence we get shit like Battlefront.
Gas is annoying. And then the give two of them and almost instant restock when you stand on a crate. Its like DICE have forgotten about the mini grenade mess at BF4 launch. But he thats what they do. They dont learn from earlier mistakes. First step. Give people only one and make the restock slower.
After putting in 100 hours into this game, I believe there may be too many one-shot kill mechanics in BF1. I put together a quick list, but I'm sure I missed something:
1) Sniper-shot to head
2) Shotgun blast-various ranges
3) Frag/Stick/AT/Tripwire/Rifle Grenade
4) Dynamite/Limpet
5) AT Rocket
6) Mortar fire (if it lands directly on top of you)
7) Tank cannon fire
8) Artillery truck fire
9) Fortress gun
10) Field gun fire
11) Plane bombs
12) Behemoth fire
13) Dreadnought fire
14) Train fire
15) Horse sword hit
16) Bayonet charge
17) Melee hit
18) Road kills
In addition, in a game mode like Operations, one can encounter most of these in a single match, sometimes simultaneously. Example: I've been defending a flag in an operations match with a behemoth overhead, dodging snipers, mortar fire, tanks, grenades, etc.
It's becoming a bit frustrating as more players discover these weapons and their use rises. No one likes to spawn, walk a few meters, and get killed instantly. I think the damage on some of these can be reduced to give the player attacked a chance to fight back instead of just being insta-killed.

So people crying "nerf" at gas grenades realize that actual battlefields would've been permeated with the stuff from constant shelling? Meaning you couldn't walk two steps without a gas mask?
At least the game balances it by making it a short-term area of effect weapon. It's the perfect offense/defense point control weapon; I love them, no nerf needed.

Wich is fine. But there is no need for two of them and instant restock.
The idea of the nade is fine. But atm is more annoying and constant spam. Like the mini nade at BF4 launch. They need some work because its not really helping gameplay now.
Dont know what T is.
These are not different from any recent battlefield games. All of those I would expect to be killed instantly from.

Well in actual ww1 battle field, There would constant shelling, Lmg wouldn't be shit, no one would have SMG OR DMRS, there would be no calvrey ,no dude with amour carrying lmg, tank wouldn't be on most of the maps, etc. Using the" it happen in ww1 I"s a flawed argument cause bf1 is a poor at depicting ww1

All of these should be one hit kills.
Mounted machine guns should also have the damage increased as they are weak as hell for a massive mounted machine gun.
Edit: Or nerf all of these to hell so it feels like playing Halo and give us hardcore mode with much more realistic damage please. Best of both worlds.
