>>159049201

I always try for aggressive recon and take my flares and tripwires with me, but I'm godawful with bolt actions so I feel its a net negative for my team anyway.

Thank God for the Springfield Experimental, shitty as it is...

Under what circumstances are you normally being killed:

A) One on one gunfights where you simply can't kill them before they kill you,

OR

B) Getting surprised by dudes flanking you or coming at you so you can't react fast enough?

>>159050428
not really

>>159050498
65% of my deaths are when I spawn

>>159050498
Literally both. More often it's B though but generally I can't outshoot anyone. I usually play Medic and use the 26 round semi-auto rifle with the marksman scope

Will Supports be getting more gadgets? I thought they had more in the beta but they got given to other classes. Right now all they really have is ammo crates, repair tool and mortar since the limpet charge can only really be used if you suicide run at a tank and inevitably die in the process

>>159050353
she's old enough

>>159050672
>>159050678

Spawn deaths are just gonna happen, but you can certainly reduce them by being more careful where you spawn. Getting locked out from squad spawn because guy is being shot at? Chances are he's been spotted too and the second you spawn in someone will be finishing him off.

Flag contested? Despite the game "supposedly" trying to spawn you in a safe place, it rarely is, and some people know the maps well enough now that they'll camp the spawn sites on contested flags waiting for you to hop in. Better to spawn on a neighboring flag, get some guys together, and make a concentrated push.

If A) is your problem, then I suggest working on your aim. This should help: www.aimbooster.com

I realize that playing a game to get better at a game is sorta silly, but this helped me when I was having trouble. Spend sometime before playing BF1 doing this to get warmed up.

If B) is your problem, well.... that's more complicated. The two things I can tell you are this:

1) LEARN THE MAPS. Being able to put yourself in places the enemy can't predict, and knowing where they'll be, are invaluably skills. Try not to hang out in places that a lot of other people frequent and always keep flanking. Also, always put yourself in cover from the most likely place the enemy will come from.

2) SLOW DOWN. Can't tell you how much this helped me when I forced myself to stop charging around everywhere. Aside from the fact that going ADS after a sprint is slower than from walking or standing position, the other benefit is that you take more time to see and hear for signs of enemy contact.

Additionally, try to move from defensible position to defensible position. KNOW where you're going before you leave a spot, and know how you'll want to establish a defense at the spot you're going to.

More often than not, slowing down and defending a given area will have the enemy blundering into you, when you're ready for them, giving you the advantage.

>>159051169
Cheers, those are some really good points

>>159051169
Generally I am always sprinting into someone and that gets me killed a lot. I really have a hard time learning maps in general though, and am not really sure how I can better learn them.

Any more tips?

Thanks man

>>159051469

Definitely try to slow your game down then, as I suggested. If you watch guys on youtube, like Xfactor or Levelcap, you'll see them typically in one general spot, watching their angles, and people just blunder into them.

Knowing THOSE spots (defensible AND high chance of enemy players) are key to getting kills. You'll eventually pick them up, but you can also intelligently guess them:

- Obviously, cover is a must. Ideally from multiple vantage points so you can skirt around it if someone surprises you for a reload or to get yourself situated for a firefight
- Any path leading from one objective to the next is going to have higher foot traffic in general
- Context clues: If you see a flag being contested, then the enemy team is supplying guys to it FROM SOMEWHERE. More likely than not, its a nearby enemy flag, and you can set yourself up between the two to intercept them
- Further: If the enemy is taking one of your flags, don't just go straight into the cap: Set yourself up between the flag they're taking and the NEXT one they're likely to head to. Wipe em out, then start pushing on the capped flag.

Again, the big thing to remember is that being on the defensive gives you the advantage over someone on the move. This is primarily what the sniper class should be used for: Picking off mostly stationary people who are wiping out your teammates who are trying to push on an objective.

Oh one more!

Try to stick with your teammates! I know one of the best feelings in the BF games is backraging like a motherfucker and taking out a ton of clueless guys, but its just not going to happen that often (unless you hide, let them come to you, and then engage when they have their backs to you).

Sticking with the blob of your teammates gives multiple benefits, mostly the fact that they'll die and you'll know there's someone about.

Aimbooster looks pretty stupid, without the exact same sensitivity wouldn't you be developing incorrect muscle memory?

>>159052836

You can correct for it to some degree, but its mostly about accurate placement when you spot something. Recoil control has to be practiced in-game.

All I can say is give it a whirl and see if it works for you. If not, you'll just have to log the time in-game.

yeah, really. You can start attacking a bomber as attack plane or fighter and be hitting all your shots while he just hits F2 and kills you in 2 seconds.

Also that AA gun needs to fucking get nerfed to hell as well. I don't understand people complaining about planes being powerfull when they're so easy to take out

>>159053960

Because players should be allowed to customize the race of their characters as a matter of course. Did you even think that nig nog players may want to play one of the white or Turkish classes as a character that looks more like them?

The way to do it would be by showing the foreign soldiers at some point in singleplayer to acknowledge that they were there. Not inexplicably having them make up half the team

>>159054113
you're supposed to engage from an angle, not behind ding dong doofus

that, and if you fly over them and dump your fighter load they instantly die

>>159053063
Not really, they even say you need multiple people doing it. They clearly wanted to make half the server being scout useful but almost nobody uses their flare or k bullet

To be fair, that's the exact same situation you get when playing Rise of Flight, so I couldn't even blame them on making two seaters and bombers well defended.

Food analogies rarely work properly, and are distracting from the context they tried to analog. Medals in video games should not be analogous to a burger. They are nowhere similar. Instead it should be summarized with, say, working an extra 45 minutes at work for a badge. That 45 minutes is nothing to be proud, it literally just said you were at work. See much better, I will let it slide though.

Are you that stupid? You JUST SAID that "Food analogies rarely work properly" and left it at that.

You didn't tell him anything about why they are silly, you just vaguely said "they're not similar" and posited an even shittier analogy by saying getting ribbons done is like doing more work when:

1. Work is work and you aren't playing a fun video game while trying to do an objective

2. You aren't getting paid for playing a game. It isn't work.

I'm downloading BF1 off Origin and while my normal download speed is 1.5 megs per second I now get 500 k/s maximum. You guys told me that Origin doesn't have any issues and it's perfectly good service to use. WTF?

Every weapon has increased effective hipfire range over BF4, making ADS only useful at long range

>>159062196

Horizontal FOV is typically what people are talking about when discussing FOV. 90 degrees horizontal is typically just referred to as 90 degrees.

A vertical FOV of 90 would be a ridiculously wide field of view (for 16:9 monitors) and make it difficult to play.

>>159062348
they probably confused it with Steam

>Squad keeps requesting orders
>Order them to attack an objective
>All 4 of them play sniper and ignore it

BF1 has increased hipfire range
BF1 has no spread gain
BF1 has no recoil gain
BF1 has no reason to burst fire anything

>People defend this

>>159062506

they're expecting you to cap it alone and give them all the squad orders completed bonus points

>>159062506
I always order my team to defend some safe objective just because I know they won't actually do anything but you still get points if it's not capped.

seriously who is this retard

>>159062647
So suddenly BF1 is not good game anymore. It was only the best game in the universe when it launched so after EA/Dice has gotten their few million buyers the game sucks now no need to shill anymore?

I'm going for refund before the game's been even downloaded.

why did i get this game, playing conquest which is supposed to be 32v32 feels like im playing solo, i dont understand where all the other 31 players are, i get a flag all by myself, i move on to the next, i see the previous flag getting captures, meanwhile all other flags are on the enemy

this game is only worthwhile to play if you got a minimum 5 man squad, otherwise its one of the most cringy and dumb games i have played, it looks like it being a "cod killer" actually attracted tons of cod kids so its trash now

The only task a truck does better than an LT is the AA kit. Everything else is an EVEN MORE fragile light tank in exchange for mobility that doesn't really matter.

You can do the same in a Flanker LT or Mortar LT. The Mortar LT gets the same machine gun and gets emergency repair.

So is the mortar gonna get nerfed? I could see it going either way. I like it personally, and believe if you nerf it at all no one will use it anymore.

>>159068179
All they need to do is remove the camera following the shell because you can use the first shot just to figure out where they are then use the second shot to blast them to kingdom come.
If they make mortars a tool that are only useful for spotted targets/targets you have physical LoS on for things like the armored train then you can even buff them slightly.

>>159068179
I think it needs an ammo nerf, if you see a shitload of enemies, find some cover, and drop 4 or 5 mortars on them that's fine. But shelling an objective for the entire game is cancer.

>>159068149
The truck has a slimmer profile and dank acceleration for when you need to bounce.

The back gun part of the arty truck is not a hitbox, so you can stick it out over things and shell tanks without being able to take fire. The light tank is also not any healthier than the arty truck, you should try it out more.

The only enjoyable thing I did last night was land a couple of direct hit mortars on some hill niggers. Everything else was a nightmare. The saddest part was that I was too retarded to change my play style sooner and to realize my team was fucking outclassed on every level.

I have no one but myself to blame.

Want to know how the mortar became completely worthless in BF4?

By doing exactly that. Supports are basically built around mortar at this point, they serve no other purpose. The guns are trash compared to assault or recon.

it depends on your angle downward and speed, but think of the bomb drop as you drawing a line on the ground over the course of that half second, starting where you click and ending when the bombs stop dropping

if you're going downward at a steep angle while going slow they will be concentrated in one spot, if you're going fast and level it will be more of a long line

Just lead with it. If it's spotted it should be really easy. A tank can't zigzag because of how slow it is.
A direct hit with it deals more damage than an AT gun direct hit if I'm not mistaken.
If nobody's spotting the tank and/or you can't lead then don't bother. Limpets will just get you killed by the tank driver.

Prepare to crash a lot.

Thanks guys.

>>159074109
Tanks ya. You might not get tank destroy's with it but its points.

Protip: if your first shot hits dead on dont wait for the camera to recenter on your character. Keep mashing the trigger and you will mortar the same spot immediately.

>tfw got good at shooting AA
free kill bros ww@

>>159075415
As in, shooting at people manning anti-air guns/vehicles, or using anti-air to kill planes?

I use aa now whenever possible. Its so easy and pilots usually dont fire back.

if you dont unlock your squads ill come and find your in your home (your parent's home)

ITS NOT FUCKING MAGIC

>>159074549
Raise up your K/D for a while until they do something about it, assuming they ever do

Yeah the whole team can just sit their asses on the top of the bunker, OR you can throw grenades at each other down below with near infinite revives and ammo boxes

2nd

>>159075838
You must have been pretty fucking shit then because it's literally the easiest thing in the game.

>>159076057
obviously not because planes never get shot down

>join game
>every squad is 3/5 and locked
EVERY

SINGLE

TIME

WHY THE FUCK

>>159076339
Because nobody uses anti-air and planes are usually never enough of a bother to justify it.
I've only used the AA truck once and that was because the enemy had tons of planes and were annoying us.

LITERALLY IMPOSSIBLE

Trying to aim with analog sticks makes me feel like a toddler trying to scrabble their first words on paper.

I fucked up.

What is the cheapest place to get a Battlefield 1 CD key?

>>159078546
I bought mine at InstantGaming for 40€

Is it so hard to get a competent team to at least take the bunker portions of the round? I've had a couple where it was done pretty quick, but people are so fucking dumb holy shit.

>tool thats useful for defending and attacking a point, and can be used to damage vehicles from a safe distance

So its a scout but actually contributing to the team?

>>159076832

Play on PC nonstop and tear shit up
Then go to friends and try to play on PS3 and be near the bottom of the scoreboard because I can't aim for shit
