>>175226648
shitty console

>another task that encourages medics to use rifle grenades instead of doing their job

The Order of Hippocrates medal was bad enough.

I do want to get this done though, so am I more useful to my team with just revives or just heals?

Damn I love spotting people and running through a hellscape of fire and bullets to go revive them

>>175233930

I suppose I should start using that function but I'm not optimistic it's going to keep anyone that was already planning on skipping from doing so.

>>175234014
Half the people I spotted continued skipping tonight, so...not really different from before
but at least they know I cared about them when my corpse flops on top of theirs

>>175234014

They should have just disabled skips until 5 seconds before you can spawn again. That's ample time for you to set up where you want to spawn without losing those two seconds of gametime that are apparently so important to you, but also gives medics enough time to get to you.

>>175235083
What was stopping you from just doing that before, senpai?

>>175235319
it will be more sweet getting 300 kills with both when there's a reward at the end.

>>175230547
>>175230748
It's actually a really good gun, but it suffers terribly from iron sight misalignment which is the reason why I'm grinding for the Sniper variant

Devil's Anvil is the worst operation in the game.

I like it a lot in theory, but whenever I use it there's just too many variables to fuck me.

>>175237762
That is precisely why I'm going for the Sniper variant of the 1906, because it addresses a bunch of those issues much better

I like the Auto8 Marksman too, but I wouldn't touch the Factory at all

>>175240508

It's the opposite: players use fighters to bomb infantry.

Played yesterday after the patch and aaaaah those delicious salty pilot tears in the chat."waah waah AA sucks it ruins the game!!"... "seriously fuck AA waaah"

who /hellnigger/ here?

>>175252223
I'm kinda disappointed from its recoil. It should have even less than the factory variant cuz of the bipod's weight.

>>175253049
Nigga, this is Dice. Everything increases recoil, according to Dice, especially heavy barrels specifically designed to reduce recoil.

>>175253548
With the inclusion of the bipod they took out the grip, maybe that's why the recoil is so shit.

>>175225527
In my case for some reason the game ran smoother before the patch.

>>175252223
I'm going to get all the guns as seing locked guns on my menu upsets me.
Right now I am using the Hout and the Sebloader.
I fucking hate 5 clip guns that need 3 shots to kill.

>>175255286
I have the same issue. I get major FPS drops on the DLC maps (like from 140 to 27 and then back up again). Especially around the D flag on Soissons. It started with this patch.

>>175255471
I thought it was because of the new graphics card update.

Damn, can't they just simply make the game run perfectly? It has been months since the release.

It's miraculous that I can now survive darts.

well, wont be playing the game until update

>>175256464
what it did was make people with more than 100 ping have to lead their shots instead of the bs that was before

>ammo pouches don't resupply nades at all anymore
Why does it even exist? It is actually pointless now, you'd have to be a retard to take the pouch over the box.

>>175257043
That's what it was supposed to do, it isn't what it does. Everyone's complaining about hitreg at the moment, regardless of ping.

>>175257320
it still resupplies gadgets afaik, but yes, as a support main since the game released, yesterday was literally the first time I ever used the box

>>175257320

I thought pouches still gave them but didn't accelerate the cooldown like crates?

https://www.battlefield.com/news/update-notes/spring-update

>>175257725

So what is the point in even having a base resupply time, if the only way to get them is from crates which reduce that time?

>>175258383
It's a feature brought back by popular demand :^)

>>175258695
So people who aren't around crates have to wait longer before they can run by one and resupply instantly? Beats me, this is DICE we're talking about

>>175258695
so you don't have to be constantly near an ammo crate, I find it works quite well, toss my nade, continue with my life, after a while pop a crate and I have my nade back

>>175258383
Bullets don't magically disappear when you die anymore.

>>175258912
whats wrong with kill trades? it doesnt make sense to bullets disappear mid air.

>>175259086
M-muh k/d

>>175259086
Because it's been a fucking annoying feature in every iteration of BF I've played since BC2. You have retarded devs pulling shit out of their asses like "the forums agree with us!" when every person who's also played the same games have all agreed that it was stupid and not missed

>>175259602
Good one retard. You know the kill trading thing cuts both ways, right? I'd rather just die with a +1 death and no kill for it than to swap cum with my opponents mouth and we all collectively become gay

>>175260318
>being mean

>>175258912
I really dont' see how its a bad thing. So far for me they've all been legit. It seems silly for bullets to just vanish. I'd rather us both die then see on my screen my guy fired but I died before they hit him.

>>175259086

>10 feet away from enemy
>Kill him
>Half a second later he kills you

How does it make sense? Bullets don't travel that slowly.

Why are there 3 Platoons on PC?

>300 kills

this shit is going to take forever

>>175263587
there are?

>>175263587

There are only two, the official one and the overflow for the official one.

Only 20~ slots left in the main platoon, applying and letting us know that you're from the thread is an easy way to get accepted asap. Generally the platoons get applications from tons of randoms that aren't from here and it's tough to weed them out.

>>175263987

>>175264091
I am subtilo and just applied

>>175264146
Faster than 1906

>>175264262
I've found I am better at that. I'm just not good at sniping, especially with a gun with 1 clip.
The 1906 is pretty annoying though.
I'm doing pretty well with the Hout though.

>>175248285

I need to read the patch notes.

>>175264220

>>175264472
I don't use a martini henry for sniping. I use it or short range combat and it does rather well

>>175255370

>seing locked guns on my menu upsets me.

I feel you, the Doughboy 1911 and the Barbed Wire Bat make me furious, but I'm not going to go out and buy a separate edition just to satisfy my autism. There are extremes even I will not go to.

inb4 >xbone
It's my roommate's, i ain't paying for this shit.

>>175262982

This. I complain about a lot of DICE's shit, but this is fine.

>>175264472

Iron sights "sniping" is a waste of time unless you spend days getting gud at it. Just charge in, aim for center of mass, and even if you don't drop them on the first shot you'll do enough damage to get the kill when a teammate finishes them off.

>>175264797
Look at the start of the thread

I completely forgot that sniper rifles have one shot kill potential in certain range. Is it a viable strategy to stay in that range as recon and snipe flags in Operations?

>>175265046
For me the hardest part is getting used to its sweet spot range. I can never correctly judge how far it is. And I can't help but instinctively switch to my pistol when i'm reloading so I keep getting pistol kills.

Also there needs to be a tip or something that tells people how to medic spot. I've every been spotted maybe once even though I've been revived plenty. I spot every revive I do.

>>175265716

If the Medics are anything like me they're so jaded by people skipping even when they're 3m away that they figure it's not worth the time.

How the fuck do you join BF1 platoons from battlelog?

>>175265705
It is but getting to that range is hard at times. And staying at that range can be a pain if the objective is large or the people are just a bit in or out of it. It takes a while to get used to the sniper sweet spot too. Most people use the SMLE because it has the closest sweet spot.

>>175266096
Go to platoons slot. Join the Kekistani 1st platoon open for everyone.

>>175237762
Played with it more last night, and I feel like just speeding up the reload would make it so much more usable. If you could dump all five rounds into an enemy then quickly reload, it would make up for the shortcomings of the gun, but the limited magazine limits making the gun broken. Instead I'm stuck trying to conserve ammo or not miss and getting outgunned repeatedly

>>175266228

Enjoy your redditors, kidd.

Just applied; skitarii

>>175267885
I really feel the sniper variant will make it decent at least.
This guns got nice range damage, but trying to get that crip iron sight to long range kills with its 2x optic max range.
Its got nice damage, just awkward sights and a frustating clip. Why can't we make all medic guns have 6 minimum?

>>175268034
Not if I only advertise it here.

>>175266096

What were they thinking?

I'd give my last fart in a mason jar for a larger clip size on the 1906, holy fuck the 5 rounds are terrible, with that awkward long pause when full reload

About 120 kills away from unlocking the Selbstlader 1906 sniper. Is it even worth the effort of suffering through this 1906 factory """""gun""""? How does it compare to the Mondragon?

Its literally mondragon with half the magazine size in practice

>>175271904
Even original selbslader is better than mondragon.
Mondragon has 2x bullets and little less recoil

>>175272889

>>175272889
Yeah Hillniggers are honestly not that bad as long as you keep an eye out for the scope glint
One of my favorite 'hobbies' in BF1 is actually getting killed by a Scout then immediately countersniping him, they always make the rookie mistake of not moving after confirming the shot.

>>175282962

Hillniggers are fine as long as they stay the fuck out of tanks. Nothing more infuriating than playing Frontlines on Soissons and having both tanks, an arty truck and a landship, stuck 3 objectives back in a field and refusing to come forward no matter how many smoke grenades you throw in front of them.

I'm surprised how smooth it feels in comparison to the lightweight. I feel like it's comparable with the BAR storm in lethality. Better at mid range worse in close due to RoF

Just unlocked hellreigel defensive, I feel absolutely filthy using it. 52/10 on SQS my first match using it. How the fuck did dice think this was a good idea

>>175296035
>>175296201

If for if you can't drag the mouse straight downwards when compensating for recoil.

I don't really know how any one can't do that, but apparently some swear by it. Maybe their sensitivity is too high and it magnifies the slightest lateral movement.

>>175297003
They do use that at the end of rounds I think, or something that sounds similar

>>175299823

I'm less salty about the hellriegel defensive now that I can confirm the huot optical is top tier.

Sort of? As long as you're playing, you'll be counted as active and we won't be kicking you out of the platoons. That being said, you don't have to use the VOIP or discord either, but if you happen to join a BFG squad that's communicating with it, you might get removed from the squad for communication preferences.

Also as a friendly PSA, please don't join more than two platoons, it takes up space for those who actually need a slot.

Poor war horses, WW1 was essentially the last time they'd ever see action. After almost five-thousand years of usage in warfare they finally went the way of the war elephant a hundred years ago. It's almost tragic.

>>175351128
>Horses have also at times received medals for extraordinary deeds. After the Charge of the Light Brigade during the Crimean War, a surviving horse named Drummer Boy, ridden by an officer of the 8th Hussars, was given an unofficial campaign medal by his rider that was identical to those awarded to British troops who served in the Crimea, engraved with the horse's name and an inscription of his service.

A true hero, that horse.

I'm actually surprised by the fact not only BF but as well other FPS have more players in console than in PC.

I always thought a controller is never designed to aim manually.

>>175360190
Its more so that the range of FPS games on console are way lower then there is on PC. Most PC players that really like FPS's have more intensive and large player based games the BF.

Is it unplayable with the broken netcode?

>>175360390
every multiplay has a bigger community on consoles than on pc, except maybe older games like bf3 or so

>>175360390

You hit the nail on the head. Arguably games like battlegrounds are superior fps experiences because they make use of the more precise nature of m/kb for the combat, and inventory management doesn't feel like a chore. There are also tons of smaller shooters that get released every year that cater to specific preferences

Anyone play on PS4 looking to game?

>>175360190
Idk but why play a multiplat that is poorly optimized and gets barely patched every month when you can play cs/pubg that both have matchmaking, decent servers, hitdetection and frequent patches?

About time RO2 comes out so I can stop playing this meme game.

I honestly think it is a bug of some sort. Because I always have around 70 ping and this has happened to me a few times. Never ever happened before the patch.

>>175362479
It's definitely a bug for below 100 (current threshold). I even got issues on a ping of ~17. There are rumors of them upping the "interpolation" (or whatever you want to call it) threshold to 150. It's another thing DICE "fixed" that didn't need fixing in the first place.

>I always thought a controller is never designed to aim manually.

It isn't. That's what auto-aim is for. I used to play console FPS for almost a decade until I got myself a nice enough computer to play FPS on, the difference was like that of night and day. It's not even the same, it's just superior controls. Going back to a controller to aim just feels wrong now; you can't flick your wrist and be able to turn around almost instantly on a console FPS, you have to hold the control stick down and wait a second to turn around; it's like steering to aim.

>>175360190
honestly if you get used to it it isn't that bad, even with aim assist turned off. Obviously kbm is better and coming from it to a controller is suffering, but people that have been playing shooters for years on console don't mind. I only turned aim assist on recently because I found out I can meme people with the revolvers really hard with it

my only problem with elite classes is that they are in TDM and domination. an elite class with a medic can completely obliterate a team in a small map regardless of skill, so the elite class basically acts as a diceroll which team will win

You'd think that one fucking time out of 12 rounds I'd be on the winning team by pure luck, but no.

War Pigeons was a fucking mistake.
