Battlefield 1 |OT| Make War Great Again

Why do you care what I do?
I don't really care how people play, if they wanna play the objective than go for it , if want to play for kills than that go to . And at center point it is kinda of pointless to play the objective in bf1 given how conquest works now.
Hilarious. Objectives are what makes Battlefield, Battlefield.
Naw , The mixture of land craft , air craft, and infantry makes Battlefield ,Battlefield

Interesting. If I have snipers on my team camping a building/windmill, I usually just dynamite the thing down. Or roll through it in a tank. Then chuck a smoke nade in the rubble for good measure.

I'm really wondering if people -sorry for the language- are absolutely stupid. I don't understand how you're a medic and don't spam health packs at every moment. There has been way too many times where I'm very low on health and a medic is there and not dropping Heath crates. Same applies for support; the moron is staring at me while I practically spam the "I need Ammo" toggle. It's free points for yourself, be a team player. Assault class is the only class people can play properly because "herp derp it's time to destroy shit."

It's more of a shame there are infinitely more health packs than ammo packs dropped in any game mode. People getting caught up in doing damage they forget they're as much support as medics.
Join UKps4gaf! An Operation yesterday I had 62 revives myself with a total of 102 for our squad. Huge help in the game.
I don't think that would make a difference, majority don't seen to like going out of their way to assist you.

Are there any solid numbers on how many points you need to rank up each class?
It says right on the Class section of your Soldier. This is in game...not on the web app.
They are all different, but they are all around 45K to 50K to level a class and that does not change as the levels rise.

Okay thanks! I thought that was just how many points I had at the time. I've really enjoyed this game so far but the ui isn't as clear as I'd like.

Any reason why certain maps are locked behind the "defenders must lose" requirement in Operations? Really want to try Argonne Forest but I suck. Feels like it limits replayability with no option to choose specific maps.
No, conquest isn't the same.

I hope they put in conquest classic.
So the way it works is that once you defeat the defense then the game shifts over to the new map.
So don't look at it as choosing one map, you are choosing that set of maps and hoping to make it through (ie a mission or operation).
What's the practical difference between the current CQ and the old CQ?

I understand it, just curious why they didn't have individual maps in the server browser. I've found that attacking is way harder to win (especially when there's a ton of useless Recon) and defense usually wins 95% of the time. Guess I'll have to keep trying.

To players with a ps4 pro. Where do I get the pro patch? Is it in 1.02?

People want orders because that helps the TEAM understand where they should be focusing their efforts, not just splitting up and doing their own thing.
Because then that wouldn't be Operations. Get some friends or GAF members together and you can sweep Operations if you play as a team.

You are missing the point of orders. It also helps random peasants work together in a squad without the need for communications.
Sure the extra points are nice.
Was that the same game I topped the leader board by destroyed like 10-15 vehicles? Haha
We absolutely destroyed them. I remember the attack where you and fatty got over 100 revives too. That number of saved tickets is just phenomenal....

Is it me or are Operations 40 players games taking long to fill up?

Didn't they change from the beta to the final game? I don't play Conquest that much, but from what I understand the only difference is that the score goes upwards instead of down.
Both teams are always bleeding tickets (unless one team own all flags) whereas in the old CQ it was one or the other or none.
Plays mostly the same except I think it's a little more possible than before to hold 3 flags against the other team's 4 (or 2 vs the other team's 3) and still be ahead in tickets because you are outkilling the other team.

Yeah, it's ridiculous. I play support myself and I drop the ammo crate literally all the time. Not only am I helping others, but I get tons and tons and tons of points from it. I don't think people realize how much points you get from it. I'm talking many thousands of points in a single game of conquest. Needless to say, I'm top three on the leaderboards in every single game, and number one about half the time. Flag attacker + dropping ammo + gas grenades + somewhat decent kdr = number one on the leaderboard all the damn time.
Yeah, I see this happen very often. At least in the first five-ten minutes of a game.
PS4 and never had to wait for a game of operations to fill.
No I think I what I said was the players who constantly ask for orders are missing the pt of orders. They are only interested in pts.

Only thing that bums me out about operations is splitting of stats. I'd love to see a complete run down, the first section they don't even give a stats screen, gotta catch it on a quick scoreboard check.. But it'd be fun to see the whole combined battle and huge scores altogether
I thought the same thing yesterday. It'd be really cool to see a scoreboard across all the maps.

Currently there is no pro patch relased I am aware about. The game automatically runs better on the pro as of now.

Is there a way to make the aiming reticle turn red when it's aimed at enemies before aiming down the sights?
Also, there's a crap load of settings. On PS4, what's the best setup to have as a single player campaign only player?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

What?
Tactics is exactly the reason they are asking for orders. Points are a lesser consideration.
Is Tuesday confirmed for a big patch?

So let's say you're right and they're only interested in points.
How is that a bad thing exactly? Getting free points is bad because you think it's annoying to spend one second to click on a flag?

I think squad captains who issue 0 orders are missing the point and losing points in the process. People spam orders for tactics and focus lol
You are wrong.
Which means that there is some sort of Pro patch baked into the actual release or one of the patches we've got. The Pro power is disabled without a patch, so there has to be something there.

Strategy like giving an order so your squad can unify on a target?
I really don't see what's wrong with someone who wants an attack order on stuff he is attacking so that he (and you) gets more points..
When I am squad leader I constantly mark everything that is about to be taken. Even if no one in your squad is at a flagged that's being captured, if you have it marked it will still be an extra 100 points for doing nothing for your entire squad.
Orders are pretty much 80% about the points and 20% about where you want your squad to go. If you are playing as a squad you are pretty much always very close to each other and you mark whatever objective you are close to. Then if you want to do some back-capping or whatever you can mark another flag and usually the squad tags along with you to that flag then.
LIke I said it's the players who constantly ask for orders that are annoying. NOt that I can't issue an order once in awhile so they can get some pts. Most of the time I'm not even the SL being asked but I want to tell them to stfu.
If you really are interested in squadding together it is pretty simple to do. Just follow your squad. Your squad is green. Your SL is a green star.
The game might as well just automate the pt thing if you are within x meters of your SL if you think the SL should be issuing a new order every 30 seconds.
Disagree, the SL should always have something marked as an objective. It only takes a second to do.
The whole point in asking and giving orders is so you can direct your squad to a strategic capture point.
Edit: I read your other posts and feel you're moaning for the sake of moaning. If you're squad lead you should CONSTANTLY be marking up.

Exactly.
If anything, squad leaders who don't issue orders should be penalized, like getting less points in the end of the match.
Yep fully agree. Good job I play in a squad of 4 other friends.
Jesus dude...it takes no time to mark an objective. Also following your SL is no good if they are all dead and then just randomly spawn somewhere else.
