Still waiting for the field guns on St. Quetin to be fixed
>still playing this
Why does no one use the Benet when its the best gun in the game
>>167243478
Because I'm a BAR babby
>>167243478
it's the worst lmg in the game bar none. it has no useful niche. the ranges at which it excels in are irrelevant
use the huot if you want a slow firing accurate lmg
>>167243478
It has the exact same damage model as the BAR but a much slower rate of fire. It's 30 round mag cannot compete with the Lewis Gun or MG15. The BAR will win a 1-on-1 engagement against the Benet-Mercie every time. The Lewis Gun and MG15 are much better for suppression and much better for ranged fire in bipod. It's also pointless to use it as a DMR is semi-auto mode because the medic class has much better DMRs
>>167243478
>Benet
the other choices are just way better
>bf1 will fucking die b4 the second dlc is out

>>167243478
You just don't fucking get it, do you? Use the MG15. All other weapons are for low-winrate babbies.
>look at battlefieldtracker
>most used LMG by far is BAR storm

You're such a faggot holy shit
Playing with a group of bros is vastly preferable to getting tossed in with randoms in every game
>>167251767
When did I say anything about a dead community
All I mean is that the smaller playerbase on PC increases my chances of seeing the same people more often, especially if I usually only play one gamemode.
Not all of us have a group of bros to play with

The hell? I always thought the vast majority of BF players were on PC
>>167250767
>>167256907
correct me if I'm wrong but aren't those pc numbers only based on people who don't have their account set on private?
I had my account settings so only friends of friends could see it and I had to change it so I could look up any information on my account there ("there" being battlefieldtracker.com).

only 48 actually. Never touched it again after 1 round with it
I give the benefit of the doubt to anyone who likes to 10 star all weapons but anything past that is pure faggotry
>Order of the Bull
Fuck this medal. It's damn near impossible to get into a Behemoth at all, let alone a slot where I can get vehicle kills.
>>167267842
>10 starring the Kolibri
It's going to be hard enough starring it once.
It was bad just getting 10 for the Codex entry.
>>167269576
>get killed by a behemoth
>12 stars
who the fuck are these people
whats wrong with them
>>167269704
Honestly I play Conquest most of the time, and I don't think I've ever had a Behemoth spawn in a game where I've been playing the objective. And not trying makes me feel like a shitter.
Guess I should probably switch to Operations and deal with the mad scramble after the first battalion.
>Killed by a sniper while sitting on the blimp
Jesus fucking christ. Those things are supposed to fly so high not even planes can hit them much less snipers on the fucking groung.
The blimp and the dreadnought need serious buffs, especially the dreadnought because in it's current stage it's fucking useless
>>167270117
>wahh i got killed from the ground in my sky fortress, wheres my buff DICE
fuck off blimpnigger.
>>167269894
to have that many behemoth stars you have to
1. be constantly losing, and not just losing but losing HARD to the point you get behemoths a lot
2. ignore the objective and game so you can be sitting on deploy screen when the behemoths come so you can get in
pretty sad to imagine
Remnant of a time long past.
Any ps4 fags in here? I can't aim with the bomber plane, but i can aim with the other planes when dropping bombs. Is it some glitch or something
>>167269576
Just spam click airships, you'll get pilot enough and it's the best vehicle killer.
Protip: destroying AA guns counts as a vehicle kill.
Xbro here, anyone feel like playing some Back to Basics or Operations sometime?
GT is VANTAVIA, I'm typically on during the evening (burger time)
>>167272819
the bomber doesn't go into the aiming view with bombs automatically like the other planes, you have to hit up on the dpad to get to that view. or whatever button you use to aim/zoom in planes. it depends on your control scheme I think
>tfw at level 50 you had more kills with the AT rocket gun then any of the primaries
Is there a worse gun in the entire game than the 12g Automatic? It feels like it shoots like 3 pellets. Does it do anything better than the other shotguns?
>>167273992
Huh, i didn't know that. Thanks bro
>>167269704
I saw someone with 63 (SIXTY-THREE) stars with the Airship the other day.
>>167274338
ROF. That's about it I think.

we really going to let this thread die for what, the fifth time without reaching the bump limit?
whats the best sniper and why is it the cowboy one
>>167290628
it'll die during the late night again
there's too much competition in /vg/ to keep a thread alive without dedicated bumpers, even games with a lot of active players
you should take a look at the state of /vg/ like I did recently, the amount of mobile weeb games shitting up the catalog is actually unreal.

wish I could stay up all night talking to myself in here
Rate my stats? Criticism or tips welcome. Console player. Ptfo. If anything I stick to what works and don't try out different weapons enough

>*tips fedora*
>>167310095
*tips autistico*
>>167310860
Autistico is shit, I don't know why it's so praised
why are there so many shitty variants of weapons. scopes are pointless. iron sights are so good that lenses are pointless as well. also I realise it is accurate to the time but any of the weapons with above paralell magazines are just pointless to use, too much of your line fo sight is blocked out.
>>167305019
Do you ever use quickmatch to find matches?
reminder that medical boxes are the hallmark of pleb medic. medical pouches are where it's at.
>>167311953
For conquests yes, does it change anything?
>>167311919
lol
did you actually think that the only difference between variants is the sights?
the autistico and madsen are also top-tier in their class
>>167312053

yeah pouches are great XD
>tfw still playing 2142
Thank god for revive. Fuck DICE and their modern console port pieces of shit games.
>>167313434
but if you had the box, you wouldn't even be able to run away while healing
>>167256907
No PC bros have way more games to choose from while console players only have BF 1 and 4 and two or 3 cowadoodies to choose from. And Battlefront.
>>167314750
>i-it's just because they have no games
is this what PC players actually think
>>167314975
Yes but its true? Compared to PC, Xbox One and PS4 has a smaller pool of games to choose from if they want online shooters.
Also dont get me wrong I have a PS4 and a 3DS so I'm not a PCMR retard, just stating basic facts.
>>167313434
you can't heal while being shot with a box either, plus you'd have to stand ontop of it. You can launch pouches long range. you can heal your whole squad without anyone having to break stride.
ammo boxes are still a decent choice though, depending on the situation and if you are the only support for heaps of other classes.
>tfw the only support in squad
>another squad moves with us capping every point
>9 people resupplying nonstop for a whole game
that's pretty sexual now I think about it
>>167315061
way more people game on consoles than PC, but I suppose that's part of it too
>>167312053
I remember in 3 the boxes were way more useful but I think the smaller maps led to more bottlenecks were you could just throw them down. In 4 and 1 a medic throwing pouches is better. You can fling them quite a way.
>>167316725
I'm pretty sure pouches didn't resupp explosives so there was never a reason to use them.
>>167316725
there wasn't any pouches in 3 the hell are you talking about
>>167317728
why are you suddenly talking about ammo pouches now? also you're wrong, ammo pouches resupplied explosives and they did so at double the rate of boxes
>>167292202
because it looks the coolest
>>167311281
it's only shit if you play console and have to rely on the autoaim
It's literally the best gun 0-18 m if you can aim the hitfire
>>167315207
running ammo pouches and ammo boxes might be
better than running pouches and a gadget in some maps
Fucking hell webm for retards always exceeds the filesize limit by 0.08mbs
>>167318716
You're right it did, I just never used them because the volumes of ammo everyone carried in 4 were much higher, especially with the squad perks to double it. To fully resupp someone could take 4-5+ ammo pouches so it was too time consuming to keep multiple people supplied. The amount of ammo people actually use in BF1 is much lower I find so it's very easy to keep multiple people going with pouches. There are only a few points on a few maps where ammo boxes are worth it and that's only if you are the only support there.
So what is the optimal way to fly as far as turning and manuvers go? i'm fidnign it really hard to judge since all the planes are so sluggish. Also the fighter with trench kit is by a wide margin the best one. To the point where bombers and attack planes are suicidal picks if the other team has a fighter in the air. The attack plane can sorta survive for a bit with a gunner but bombers are only ever good if you have total air superiority as well as the rest of the pilots actively blowing up the AA.
>>167319987
Always set it to aim for 2.8mb rather than 3. Also I usually reduce the resolution down to 800:-1 or whatever for 4chan because even 720p is overkill. Use the cli if you want to make better ones with more custom settings and it's easier to hit 2.99mb everytime. Not that it really matters I suppose.
>>167320064
I guess I'm not seeing what is WTF here?

When I got revived I teleported through 2 houses, kinda hard to see because I pressed tab at that moment.
>>167321859
Ah, it's early here and for some reason I thought you respawned.
My favorite is when you get hit by a grenade and get revived two stories down.
>>167321230
I wish I knew, I find that it's much harder to outmanoeuvre attacks than in previous bf games.
>>167321939
when you do a loop de lopp as you fly straight twoard the ground if you throttle back a little bit it feels like you turn faster but I raelly don't know. I've had luck flying really close to the ground, then flying straight up and killing the throttle to stall, people will either fly straight past or lose their tail on you. Either that or they kill you in 2 seconds.
>>167322397
I think you have to throttle down to turn faster, then throttle up as soon as you're out of the turn. Everytime I've crashed I throttled up (instinctively, from other games), however the 2 times I throttled down I saved it.
Besides, I also seem to hear everyone else throttle up when they hit the ground.
>>167322397
>>167323128
Thanks, I'm gonna try this out later. Gotta git gud.
>>167326156
manoeuvring plays a huge part in it as well, just like other BF games. I've always been pretty good at holding the right airspeed and doing tight turns, but there are actual dogfighting strategies and ways to fly beyond just pulling a tighter circle than the other person. people who can do that are unstoppable.
>>167326365
I was better in the babby tier choppers, I wonder if we'll get any like the PKZ2 in bf1.
>>167326594
yeah choppers were easier to learn for sure but some people again were absolute beasts on those things too. I played a bf4 game with some dude flying the minibird and he went 101-1. I was repairisiting but it was totally unnecessary. he went the support class that let you resupply people when occupying a vehicle so I could spam frag rounds and LAWs. I've never seen anyone fly a chopper like that it was absolutely ridiculous. I'd even argue that choppers have a higher skill ceiling than jets. Good minibird pilots can shoot jets out of the sky like nothing and a well coordinated apache team is literally unkillable.
>>167240028
How do I git gud?
