Wonder what BF is doing differently from CoD. In CoD you can be super consistent with shotguns, but in BF you roll dice with every single shot and see if anything register. Inconsistent as fuck.

What's up with this shitty medal system? Shit keeps resetting to last week's medals, and then back to this week's, then back to last week's.

Fuck.

Can't express how ecstatic I am about tank combat in this game. It's so reminiscent of the old 1942-43 and even BC1 for that matter. No more fucking guided missiles bullshit.

Love the fuck out of the A7V schoolbus, had a full party of 6 plus another crazy mofo repairing from the outside, quite an intense round to say the least.

Well, if you were strafing right before/during the shot it could have gone anywhere, don't forget how much BF punishes you for that.

So tired of running somewhere while keeping sprint pressed, seeing an enemy, hitting F for charge and instead just whiffing a pointless melee hit instead of flying into a charge. What the hell

That reminds me how nice it is to have official servers on PC so I don't have to wade through the tons shitty servers with dumb rules and game settings.

I remeber when the servers got jacked in BF3, I got kicked, weapons were forbidden and it was the same two levels haha.

Btw, MGs for the Support is so damn good.

Havent tried Domination or Team Death Match yet.
I'll try Domination tonight then

Not sure if you are on PC or console but on PC there is the choice for 40 or 64 players, and I suggest 64 players.
It is the closest I think a video game has gotten to recreating the madness (in a good way) of what actual war may be like. It is controlled chaos.

Domination is my favorite mode right now as I get a handle on all the different weapons. So easy to play a bunch of 5-10 minute rounds.

You mean Operations. You don't have a choice right now anyway but Dom is only fun with small player counts.

Primary reason? Bullet spread varies in Battledfield, it doesn't in CoD.

Was playing a game of operations today and the enemies blimp got insta-killed right at the start of the match, like, i litteraly flew right towards from spawn and watched it explode.

I have no idea WTF happened there.

Blimps are pretty buggy from what I've seen. There's also another bug where none of the guns are usable, apparently.

I decided to give Assault a chance (I've been playing mainly Medic since I bought the game) and I'm really enjoying it, I think it suits much better my aggresive playstyle, I'd rather be on the front line than camping for kills. Also managed to destroy 3 enemy tanks in my last match, feels good man

What's your weapon of choice for Assault (besides the Hellrieger)? Been trying the Automatico and I find it quite good, really nice fire rate

Automatico Trench is god tier. Chews through people at close range, burst fire at 50-75m is incredibly effective. All without having to ADS.

10A Hunter, Hellriegel and Automatico are the go to weapons for Assault atm.

Thanks, I'll stick to the Automatico Trench, so much fun to use in close-quarter combats. Gonna give the Model-10 a try as well

It has one use: auto balance. Though that doesn't make it useful yes.
Click to expand...

Auto-balance in general has been shit, I feel. It balances teams like 8-4 at times.

But the skill number has absolutely no use for actual purposes beyond that. It goes up and down willynilly with no actual mathmatics involved in the actual player skill.

Every CoD has these same complaints about shotguns.

In BO3 they eventually buffed shotguns to give them a minimum damage (ie. even with 1 pellet hit you do high base damage, then each pellet after that is a small amount). They made most shotguns a guaranteed 2 hit kill, it was awful.

How's everyone's luck with legendary/gold battlepack drops? I've gotten four or five since launch as well as three puzzle pieces.

I keep hearing folks complain about BPs, but I've had seemingly good luck, I guess?

Man, I just unlocked the MG15 and it craps on the default Lewis LMG in almost every way. The 100-round magazine is so damn comforting. Reload? What's that mean?

I think one legendary in around 55 hours of play. Not sure about golds. I have stopped getting boxes for some reason, despite finishing 1st or in the top five a lot of the time.

I have no idea what you have to do to get battle packs.

I have somewhere around 70-80h in MP. I get BPacks quite consistently as systems seems to favor players in top ranks of teams. Scrapped all, but 2 skins. Gotten few 900 boxes. I have 1 puzzle piece.

Friend has over 100h in MP already, he is yet to unlock either of puzzle piece weapons.

Edit: Rev 2's have given me only white rubbish
