Support NeoGAF

[Foxxsoxx]

I have no idea. I asked the same question earlier. Had a guy drop 40-60 with like 10 deaths several maps in a row. I don't understand how they don't die more to the usual BF bullshit while running on foot. I wish the game had spec so I could see for myself

Teamwork and medics man, teamwork and medics.

*bottom page just exploded, reposting*

Played my first two conquest matches of the day just now on Sinai Desert (which I like more than in the beta, but it's still not great) and that chokepoint Forest map which I actually really ended up enjoying. Still think Quentin Scar is the best map though :d

Dice really did an excellent job with the gameplay of this game, I hope to our sweet Lord that they somehow patch performance in high player count servers.

 

[TimeEffect]

So how is Sinai with the far flag being closer? I really dont like the thought of it at all, that flag was really fun to defend.

But maybe now more players will be at it, alleviating the absolute meat grind chaos in the middle flags

I've decided to pick this up this week.

Now I'm torn between PC and Xbox.

I have really grown accustomed to playing PC games again since I upgraded but I generally play them on the couch and I would likely use a controller which means A, id be slaughtered and B, Id let my team down.

Decisions.

BF1 has full controller support with proper aim assist on PC, so you could play it on the couch and it won't be as big a massacre as with past DICE games.

Im annoyed at people wanting the same level of unlocks as BF4 and claling5 the game boring and stale as a result

Such an awful trend to have games throw in a bunch of unlocks as opposed to enjoying a game for the core gameplay. People want to feel constantly rewarded simply for playing

yep, it's a horrible trend and practically lets shitty gameplay get a pass since people are too busy fawning over the dopamine release of unlockables vs the actual act of playing the game

It plays better, but there is still a bit too much space between flags, the map really needs more fast vehicles.

After some more matches, I'm feeling that this game seems a bit more limited compared to BF4. Haven't really had any amazing moments like I did in that game on every match. I will say the maps are a lot more interesting, even if they are a sniper fest at the moment

You should try Operations, if you haven't.

Did this happen with BF4?

 

[orthodoxy1095]

Do we have a PS4 group message thread or group to arrange sessions?

 

[GodParticle]

Forgot about that one. Yeah, that mode was interesting, but not enough people were playing like on conquest

 

[Schlorgan]

That seems to be where the best moments of the game are happening.

Just play in a Squad and have people heal and revieve you.

 

[Rizzi]

Armoured trains sure are "balanced"

 

[Foxxsoxx]

Not that I remember. BF4 has a little better framerate though.

 

[Aters]

There must be a lot of new gamers to Battlefield. Second match and I'm already topping the scoreboard.

 

[TheFlow]

MP is challenging. like damn.

 

[ThisOne]

Holy cow, the shotguns seem really bad. Had one with a scope on it and I'd ADS right on an enemy and not even get a hit marker.

The slow menus and weird resolution (on PS4) are killing the game for me right now. I really like most, if not all, of the maps and I think the weapons are cool, unique, and mostly fun to use.

I'm a new BF MP player on PC. And yup it's challenging lol.

It's just chaotic and I barely have a clue what or where to go half the time. And I can't hit shit with my weapons lol.

Still managing like a 1:1 K/D ratio somehow but it's just crazy. No idea how people go like 50-6 and stuff, vehicles?

What's a good way to take out that blimp btw? Which starting class loadout can I do damage to it, or do I need a special weapon or vehicle to hurt it?

 

[Rad-]

MP is challenging. like damn.

It does feel like that at start because some (all?) starting weapons are shit.

 

[ThisOne]

Is unlocking battlepacks at the end of a match completely random? I've played 16 matches and haven't gotten a single one.

 

[Agent]

I just got put into a Conquest game on Suez that was 600 to 75 as the other team had all cap points and was spawn trapping our team. The final score was 1000 to 150. Not sure if I've seen many Battlefield games that bad. At least the game rewarded me with a Battlepack for that 5 minutes of torture and bad matchmaking.

 

[iRAWRasaurus]

Yes search neogaf battlefield 1 on the community. There is also a google spreadsheet in the OP.

We're not new! We're just a little rusty........

The starting weapons for Medic and Assault are amazing.

Completely random. In theory you can increase yours lottery odds by playing gamemodes with faster rounds and smaller player count.

 

[Jarrod38]

Stabbing people in the back is random I can get the one stab animation where I get the dog tag but other times can take three hits.

 

[Alchemist]

Not that I remember. BF4 has a little better framerate though.

Here's hoping the Pro patch allows 1080p/60fps

 

[XAL]

im really surprised you can't throw cash to buy battlepacks

 

[Jarrod38]

Don't give them any ideas.

 

[DeadlyParasite]

I'm guessing the XB1 achievement for reaching rank 2 in the support class is bugged because I'm rank 10 and the achievement guide shows me as still being rank 1.

 

[storybook77]

Game is great and gorgeous. I can't wait to see what it looks like on PS4 Pro in HDR.

 

[Tacklemacain]

Don't give them any ideas.

You could in bf4.

 

[Dylan Sexbang]

Question for Xbox One players: is anyone else getting really bad frame hitches? Some of them are horrible, and completely pause the game for a second or two. I've tried closing and opening, opening 4 games past the splash (worked for gears), restarting the console. I didn't have this in the beta, and griping to friends makes it seem like I'm alone. :<

 

[Tovarisc]

Don't give them any ideas.

I expect purchasable battlepacks, kit unlock packs etc. down the line just like with BF4.

 

[Gaz_RB]

Whoever said to use the Benet-Mercie LMG Telescopic... I salute you. This thing is a goddamn beast.

Was it like that in the beta? I played with a controller and was getting slaughtered. I could have just been bad though lol

Beta did not have aim assist, so you would have been at a major disadvantage back then.

 

[Nameless]

They need to bring pistols down just a notch. They've always effective in BF, and I don't want to change that, but they shouldn't be outgunning autos when getting off second.

It certainly seemed like I was haha oh well, I'm gonna end up with it on PS4 now anyways.

I got freezes but not in situations with many things going on so i moved the game from the external hdd to internal and it fixed them.

 

[Mothman91]

Probably answered many times but,

when does the game unlock? 12 am eastern?

On origin it says another 9hrs 10mins

 

[Rizzi]

Got a legendary pistol skin in a battle pack but I can't use it on everyone. I want people to see my cool gun! :x

 

[ShutterMunster]

I'm on PS4: My preorder bonuses (Hellfighter pack & Deluxe edition pack) still say preorder next to them. There's no download icon. When I click them the countdown is blank.

Anyone experience similar with this title or in the past and know a fix?

I fucking hate dealing with PlayStation support.

 

[Xyber]

Sucks that there isn't Atmos support on PC like Battlefront.

I wish all games used it. I like it so much better than the standard audio in Overwatch.

 

[Archpath1]

Boom gold and silver BAR skins

Sweet!

Now to unlock it

 

[mf.luder]

Hopefully some of these kinks get worked out by the time the game is in my hands on Friday.

 

[GodParticle]

Ok, seriously, what is up with bayonet charges turning people into killing machines? I've had people run right through damn near point blank shotgun shots

 

[frontovik]

Just an FYI that you can still get knocked out by a bayonet charge even with a Sentry gear.

 

[labx]

Guys hello. Can anyone tell me the duration of Single player of this game? It is worth it for the SP, or should I wait to a sale?
