/bfg/ - Battlefield General

they should let gunners in attack planes spot or something
give the backgunner something to do when there is no enemy plane to shoo away

>>160278578
Can they not?
Why wouldn't they be able to?

Any tips for the SMLE Infantry? Coming from the Gwehr 95; which handled beautifully but I can't hit shit with the SMLE.

I can't decide if the the ADS accuracy is shit or if the iron sights are misleading. I literally cannot hit a guy stood still out in the open at 50m range.

>>160278649

>if you lack a primary for the K bullets you get a sawn off Russian 95

neat

where the frick do i find hardcore servers!!!!

>>160278776
They put a fair amount of effort into making the K bullets always work. There's a complicated and well-done animation for switching the entire pedersen device out of the M1903 Experimental and back in again for switching to K bullets.

It's just a shame K bullets are shit.

Also how do you not have the K bullets for that?

monte grappa SUCKS

>>160278776

>the sawn off 95 doesnt need to reload after every shot with K bullets

Neat

Who the fuck thought that it was a good idea to make tail gunners do 3 times as much damage as fighter front guns?

>>160278704
Iron sights are a bit misleading.

Really though, there's no reason to use any rifle but the Gewehr 95 when rocking infantry rifle. SMLE Carbine isn't bad though.

>>160278776
how exactly can you lack a primary?

>>160279064
sorry im retarded but are they planning to release official hardcore servers

>>160279113
>>160278962

Custom servers that ban certain weapons, in this server all primaries are banned

>>160278776
>>160278962
seriously, is there a use for K bullets? (besides maybe resetting the repairing?
I personally think you should be able to do some damage to the driver if you hit the tank right

>>160279054
They can't hit you if you move a bit or come from above or below

>>160278776
Wait how do you lack a primary that can use K-bullets?
There's no all-kit weapons, and even the 1903 with the Pederson device swaps the bolt to use them. And the idea of armour piercing .577 Martini rounds is laughable, but I imagine it still works that way.

>>160279202
Soon(tm)

>>160279281
They're an alright way to destroy tracks on vehicles, at least when you factor in that you can either keep mobile while doing it, or be five miles away on a hill, and not really give away your position.

Oh, except everyone has an instant repair that removes the track disable. Enjoy.

>>160279281
They're supposedly better against aircraft now? Don't know by how much. K bullets need a buff. One shot to an engine should disable the engine, and shooting into a viewing should kill the gunner/driver. Now you have a reason to aim them.

>plane still spazzes the fuck out when it gets hit by the AA
nice one dice

>Operations is fun and reminds me of Red orchestra
>Because DICE are worse with bugs and technical issues than fucking BETHESDA it is the sole gameplay type that has a direct-x crash incessantly for a shit load of players

That's nice.

Don't know whether to be pissed at Dice or Nvidia being a bunch of inept chucklefucks that they pull this off with a AAA game with a year plus of time to balance and test.

I half think it's planned obsolescence since the performance outside of the crashing is otherwise perfect.

>>160279872
Good.

>>160279054
boom and zoom baby

>>160279281
as far as I know the K bullets are pretty much useless.
>tfw still have it equipped since all the other gadgets (besides spotting flare) are even more useless

Goddamn, they really gutted the mortar hard. Is there even any point to using this thing? I used to love spotting then picking snipers off buildings and catwalks with it but with the abysmally long deploy time I can't do that anymore.

It's already begun

The hardcore elitists are coming out

I tried using the automatico but it kicked up like a bitch, maybe I'm just shit but it felt way worse than the default Assault weapon.

Do the other variants not launch the gun into the sky when you pull the trigger? Or do people just hipfire with it?

The greatly reduced ttk is the main contributor. It fucks with how firefights function. Some fights become "the man lying in a hill a hundred odd meters away killed me" and others become a matter of reflex - who shot first.

Being accurate with your first and sometimes second shot is not difficult because it has next to no factors that impact it other than if you are ADS and your stance. Your FSM might have a major effect too if the gun has a high enough one, along with FSSIM.

Hardcore requires changes to health and damage values, tweaks to fall off, adjustments made with encounter ranges in mind, a whole bunch of shit really. Instead, we have a mode that basically rewards static play with high damage/dps, low risk weapons.

the game is much slower paced on consoles, not as twitchy, and the snipers aren't nearly as bad an issue as on pc. plus for the shit that aiming with an analog stick is, I manage just fine with it, and the game is filled with new people to the genre or just not very good, the hype train was real afterall

If you can't get those you should never touch scout

>>160294318
Teach me your ways. I never get headshots, but I still end up at the top on the scoreboard whenever I play Recon. Maybe I'd always have the top spot if I could learn it. The only time I go for headshots is if they're prone or standing completely still, which not even snipers do. They constantly wiggle their ass, making the head an annoying target but the body an easy one.

>>160294302
Yeah I'll admit there are a ton of new people

It just means you've lost all standards. I had a similar experience after dropping World of Tanks, but I didn't turn into a drone. A "progression" system doesn't add anything to a retail game at all, it just arbitrarily locks you out of content and prevents new players from learning the game faster by not letting them experiment.
