Support NeoGAF

[belvedere]

Man, Ive kinda been wondering myself. Ive used wartapes and then tried headphones. But cant come to a conclusion of what's best. Using astro a50s.

May have to test this out more thoroughly this evening.

 

[Tecnniqe]

What the hell? The medal systems needs a complete overhaul.

Also on another side note. I get faster suppression medals as a sniper opposed to support with a damn LMG.

FML.

 

[DeaDPo0L84]

All medic weapons felt a bit underwhelming and then suddenly Mondragon sniper rifle. WTF this weapon feels so much better than the others. 3 hits to kill at every range and it's accurate.

I've been really enjoying the mondragon optical with 2.0 zoom and the cross instead of the dot. Still good at range but allows me to play close to the objective as well.

 

[Anton Sugar]

It's absolute bullshit that Squad Suppression Assist don't count towards Suppression Assist Medal.

Absolutely disgusting.

Yeah, I played a full round and got ONE Suppression Assist. Switched medals and said goodbye to that shit.

Medal system overall is pretty shitty.

 

[frontovik]

Can't play for more than an hour without crashing on the PC due to a nvidia/directx error. Has anyone found a fix?

 

[Tecnniqe]

Yeah, I played a full round and got ONE Suppression Assist. Switched medals and said goodbye to that shit.

Medal system overall is pretty shitty.

Yeah it's bad. Really bad.

 

[Thriller]

Anyone want to play in a team now?

 

[Ozorov]

Am I the only one that switches class after each death? Think it gets more fun and dynamic that way

 

[Captain Zyrain]

Okay to make up for the Pronening...

I love the Behemoths so much. Flying the Zepplin is pretty great too.

Haha!!

GREAT shot btw!

 

[Anton Sugar]

Saving teammates from melee is always such a satisfying feeling.

 

[belvedere]

Behemoths in Operations, can they not be destroyed?

 

[MrOogieBoogie]

Behemoths in Operations, can they not be destroyed?

Yes, they can. Don't think I've ever seen a behemoth survive until the end of an operations game.

Gotta focus fire. When one shows up, immediately spawn at your base spawn and look for AA.

Focus on the attack pods hanging from the bottom to make it less effective, then just pound the thing itself. Its health appears at the top of the screen, to the right of the timer.

 

[Lan Dong Mik]

Man, I love this game, but my god, the chat is seriously out of control. I can't believe some of the shit I've seen. In a game just now and this guy was spewing so much racist/hateful shit. For two games in a row. I reported him and am going to start doing it anytime I see that kind of shit. It ruins the experience and I actually like having the text box on when it's not filled with nonsense like that.

Is Origin pretty good about banning people like this? I reallly hope so, because it feels like it's getting out of hand.

 

[ShadowsFell]

I saw someone on Xbox One earlier today who was already at rank 70. :0

And I thought I'd been playing the game a lot. Haha

 

[Capsov]

Really trying to ration my time left with the trial, only got 75 minutes left. Friday cant come soon enough.

 

[Little Old Man]

Amazon UK shipped my copy! It's in transit from Peterborough and I have Prime. Is it going to come tomorrow or Friday?

Pleaseeeee come tomorrrowwwwwwwww

Same here :O

By the Old Gods and the new, let it come tomorrow.

Must have been the first match, bad team + AA ignorance power combo. I ran around looking for AA for half the match. I didn't spawn at the main once lol.

This was on Ballroom Blitz.

Aren't there people who share an account and essentially play on it 24/7 just so they can rank up fast?

 

[ShadowsFell]

That may be the case. Who knows.

Seeing the behemoth come down in the background while my squad charges downhill to the nearest flag was one of the best gaming moments of 2016 for me. It's awesome.

 

[ShadowsFell]

Just unlocked the Martini-Henry for the scout class. Yayyyy!

I've seen the slur "n***er lover" used in chat in three different games by three different people. =/

 

[Tecnniqe]

So end of round porn avatars.

Cool, cool.

 

[Ozorov]

So end of round porn avatars.

Cool, cool.

PC I guess?

Ridiculous. I mean who even loves naggers anyway.

With ~17 hours on Origin, I am surprised I haven't really run into this yet.

 

[NotTheGuyYouKill]

If there's a second game or SP DLC, I wanna see them do Vimy Ridge.

 

[GitarooMan]

Ha, I just saw a 66 and was like WTF?

 

[Tecnniqe]

Oh yeah.

 

[ShadowsFell]

The Martini-Henry is a beasssst. And it sounds amazing too.

 

[VisceralBowl]

When I joined a server today, it put me in my own squad and auto locked it. I manually unlocked it.

Maybe a bug? I'm guessing some people have no idea their squad is even locked.

Besides that, I can't get enough of this game. I can't give DICE enough praise. I have that 1942, BF2 type feeling of a great Battlefield title. Sure it could use a little balancing, sure it doesn't run at a locked 60fps on PS4 and has some dips here and there, but wow this is a great first person shooter experience.

The problem is that it auto locks squads, instead of letting you do it manually which a lot of people don't know about.

Good to know. I'll make sure to double check in the future.

For the train, the HE mortar does a wonderful job from a safe distance. And a little tip is to just keep spamming shots if you nailed the first one, don't have to wait for that camera to go back down.

That's a great idea. I need to try using the mortar more.
--
Finished the campaign last night. The first three episodes (more so the second and third) are great but the later ones are far too short and feel like starting points. I was also not a fan of the reuse of MP maps in campaign. I did like the night mission on episode 6.

Overall I'd say it was better than BF3/4 and a good step in the right direction. I like the episodic idea.

 

[Ozorov]

What medic-level do you need to unlock it?

 

[Lender]

Holy shit at this moment. Had no idea that it was going to blow up like this. Speakers were nearly at maximum at the time, I nearly shit myself. You can even see me backing up because I was afraid for my little tank.

[ShadowsFell]

What medic-level do you need to unlock it?

It's not a Medic weapon. It's a Scout weapon. I think it's Scout rank 10, if I'm not mistaken.

 

[Ozorov]

It's not a Medic weapon. It's a Scout weapon. I think it's Scout rank 10, if I'm not mistaken.

Scout rank 10? Holy smokes. How long did it take you to get that?

 

[ShadowsFell]

Scout rank 10? Holy smokes. How long did it take you to get that?

Not that long actually. If you play Conquest, and focus on continually capturing points as a Scout, you'll get a TON of points for doing so, making it much easier to rank the class up.
That goes for any of the classes of course.

 

[Ozorov]

Not that long actually. If you play Conquest, and focus on continually capturing points as a Scout, you'll get a TON of points for doing so, making it much easier to rank the class up.

Alright, I switch class after each death. So one day maybe

 

[SuperSah]

Same here :O

By the Old Gods and the new, let it come tomorrow.

Knowing our luck, it'll be held until Friday. Can RM do that or do they just deliver as it comes?

 

[ShadowsFell]

Alright, I switch class after each death. So one day maybe

Haha yup! I've done a little of that, but I mainly wanted to focus on ranking up Support and Scout first. Next it'll be assault I think, but who knows.

 

[KoruptData]

I'm level 0 Scout and yet I have the Lawrence of Arabia unlocked. Battlepack?

 

[ShadowsFell]

I'm level 0 Scout and yet I have the Lawrence of Arabia unlocked. Battlepack?

I believe that's a pre-order bonus.

 

[Ozorov]

I believe that's a pre-order bonus.

Yeah

 

[PaulKersey]

Early enlisters edition benefit.

 

[Surfinn]

Is it just me or do loadouts not save in game? I've changed my weapon/gadgets multiple times but it usually resets and almost always resets when a new match starts.

I just set everything the way I wanted in Battlefield Companion (phone app), so hopefully that will fix the issue. Will test when I get home.

The app is bugged, resets your loadouts.

 

[Surfinn]

Ah shit. Well my loadouts were resetting in game anyway.

 

[hunchback]

Just got the game installed with the patch. I entered the code for the extra items and nothing showed up. I'm on XB1. Is this a known issue? This thread is moving fast so I haven't seen anything about the early enlister items not showing up.

It says I entered the code correctly. Do I need to manually download the extra items?

 

[Daffy Duck]

Fuck me, that intro.
