Really the default weapons are pretty damn good. Make sure you hit V when using the medic rifle to make it full auto.

Just had to shoot one time with each field gun. Nothing ever hit me when I just shot one time and then immediately ran to to next one.
I did that too first try, but I got hit by artillery as soon as I jumped in to the field gun, so I did it with the Gewerh instead, scoot and shoot
. I wanted the codex for keeping the field guns alive too, so worked better to use the gewehr.

I hit 750+ and the counter wasnt even close to stopping when it faded away. Its a mystery.

That tip may have been useful before I completed...
Ended up just spamming the tracks with dynamite the moment the train appears at the start, then backpeddling and tossing Anti-Tank nades while rushing to safety. That eliminated half the train's HP on hard in the first 20 seconds. Then just ran from Field Gun to Field Gun firing a single shot and getting the fuck out of there before planes or the train homes in on my position for an instant kill(you really need to fire quick and get off the gun the moment the hit lands -- those planes nuking you are just deadly). Bouncing from Field Gun to Field Gun made quick work as it is only 6-8 shots when the tank is half health from the start.
Still a real cheap encounter on hard, and the only real brickwall moment in the entire campaign given the constant air bombardment and train fire that can shred you if staying in one-place too long.
Surprised overall how simple this platinum trophy is actually. The campaign isn't too bad to clear everything(collectible guide helps for field manuals) and the MP only really demands a couple easy situational kills and to rank every class to 2 which will come naturally over time, but isn't too painfully long to do given how enjoyable I am finding MP. Expected at least a trophy for getting Rank 10 with classes or reaching some insanely high character level, but thankfully nope.

I don't understand how this was ever agreed to be 3 flags. I'd say 8/10 matches on it are completely one sided.
Amazed this wasn't the case in early play testing.
Matchmaking improvements awww yiss!!!
Finally im gonna be able to play Operations!
Props to DICE!

For assault class: Automatico M1918 and Model 10-A . For medic class, either Cei-Rigotti or M1907 SL. For support class, either M1909 Benet-Mercie or Madsen MG,
I think those weapons are available to you when you are rank 0. I am prob wrong since I dont remember
Sent you a fr this morning , but will be on tonight after work for sure.

I reaaaaaaaaaally think they need to speed up the "Hold X to spawn". It takes way too long man.
Opus Angelorum
Member
I don't mind as it allows you to cancel incase a medic appears (lol).

Bothers me every single time. I hate that whole mechanic.
No they don't. You are supposed to lie there for the medics. You can't spawn any faster if you skip anyway. It's the exact same time as just waiting for skip to appear on it's own and then hitting X.

They need to remove that shit so medics have time to revive before people fk off.

It's such an inelegant solution though. Even if they made the hold time half as long, people aren't going to do it accidentally. There are definitely times where I don't want to be revived.

Nice one mate! This ought to be alot of fun.
You won't be disappointed when you see my squad.

This.
They could easily reduce the hold time by half.
It's not that I don't think the mechanic shouldn't exist, or don't see the point of it, it's just, as SL puts, inelegant. It's too long to expect me to hold it if I do want to start getting ready to deploy.

Anyone on right now that wants to party up on PS4?
It is my day off, been playing Operations but it is terrible with randoms, squad leaders don't give out any orders. It is terrible.

I couldn't get Origin to go online last night, even after a restart, so I just played a little bit of the campaign (finished Through Mud and Blood). And it's pretty solid; better than any other singleplayer experience in Battlefield by a country mile. It still doesn't come close to the chaos of large-scale multiplayer action with dozens of teammates and enemies all clashing in a gigantic melee around a single point, but it's a far sight better than the tacked-on campaigns of Battlefields past.

Just let me die and burn like I deserve!!
That's why I prefer the BF4 system of reviving. Give the player the option to cancel the revive instead of letting the player skip the revive all together.

Thanks mate - see you later
Will add you later - I'm Luvs_2_Squidge
We are going to fill a team eventually aren't we haha
Will add you later but not sure how well you will find the lag to UK based players

Thank you gents
This, so many times. They don't realize that they'll be up and fighting faster this way. Even though I'm tempted to say fuck it and just move on if I start seeing the death icon blink, it would be a bad habit to not at least try to revive.
What's that on the PS4? thanks for the tips as well
It's down on the dpad.
That's awesome. 3 was not enough for an open and tiny map like that.
Dude, no. They need to completely get rid of pressing a button to rush your death. It's bullshit.
That's my normal time also, I'll add you when I get back tonight. Redders25 is mine.

You're off your rocker!
On PC, people have no issue hanging around to be revived. But sometimes I'm in the middle of nowhere and there's no chance I'll be revived. It's annoying having to hold space for so long in order to get to where I can edit my loadouts.

I hope this update also includes the mutiny feature...
How often do you need to edit your loadouts? It's basically "set it and forget it" once you find your go-to gun.
Me too. FFS, me too. I've pretty much given up on joining random squads because 90% of the leaders don't set objectives and/or 2+ guys are playing Scout. Last night I was running as a one man squad and my "Squad" finished 1st in flags capped and 4th in defended.

Don't worry, I'll be charging into that flamethrower to revive just so you can die again.
You change your loadouts all the time? You deserve to wait. Sorry bro. Lol
