Star Trek: The Motion Picture is a boring movie
If you haven't used the flamethrower (spawns at Butter) I highly recommend it. I immolated 20 people in one go before I got surrounded by two tanks and taken down.

I mostly called them idiots because the tank wasn't far enough on the point to hold it so they kept getting out and getting shot by the guys camping it.

Okay yeah that is tedious, obnoxious, and unfun, I can see that. We'll work on our tank skills and keeping all the bros in the tank so this never happens again.

ahaha j/k bro by keeping all the bros in the tank I mean never keeping all the bros in the tank I'll get out of the armor whenever I feel like it

This is awesome btw. You can get behind enemy lines and gently caress them up real good.

I've noticed a lot of people place anti tank mines on the tracks as soon as the train is announced. Maybe they can do something about that, the Zeppelin for instance won't have that problem :)

Is there no way of dealing with a tank if you don't have the rocket gun, aside from attempting to predict it's path with mines or getting danger close with dynamite?

Eh. Rocket Gun isn't that great IMO vs tanks. I havent found the sweet spot for hits, but I use all the ammo and MAYBE disable a tank. Unless it's already hurt, you can't destroy a tank using only the Rocket Gun. Also, no optic on the gun, so it's really hard to pull long shots.

It is THE MOST FUN anti-sniper weapon though... Especially against dudes shooting through windows, as long as they arent too far obv (because no optics).

I used the heavy tank for the first time today and it's shocking how oblivious people are to it..so many people running right by me, even tanks rolling by as I shoot them and they don't even turn around. I got like 20 kills in the tank before I finally died because I was ramming the train and someone finally killed me.

As badass as wartapes sounds, you're better off with other settings if you use a decent headset. Wartapes adjusts the volume so that everything is the same.

Well well, mister fancy-pants, I hope you're wearing your matching sweater today, or you'll be cut down like the ugly tree you are.
The flare gun is turning out to be my favorite gadget now that enemies firing doesn't make them appear on the minimap. Just fire it at a place where you know enemies are, and it's free spots for your whole team.

Plus you can burn people to death with it. http://xboxdvr.com/gamer/TheOneAndOnlyT7/video/21327810

I've never had it spot someone but have a 100% chance of lighting someone on fire, even if the flare goes way above their heads.

If it's a bug, I like it.

As far as I can tell the flare only spots enemies near it. If you shoot it over someone's head it'll only spot them while it's over them, then you'll lose the spot after it goes a ways past. They stick to walls, though, so I usually just shoot it right into whatever rock or building happens to be handy. I'm pretty sure the spot radius also goes through walls, so it's really helpful if your teammates are trying to clear out the tiny buildings between C and D.

EDIT: Guess I was wrong and they don't stick to walls, but shooting them into a wall is still useful if you want to scout that zone.

I spawned on a squadmate and popped up about 10 feet behind him just as a truck barreled through him, and thus me. Shortest and most hilarious life.

I spawned above and behind a squadmate who was on a roof, fell 40 feet, lost 80 health and immediately caught a round from a pistol.

quote:

Players that have played the "Battlefield 1" Beta also said that the tanks in the game is almost impossible to defeat because of its new feature that the armor can be repaired while inside the tank, and having a tank can bring huge advantage to the team. So, the players suggest that there will be tank nerfs needed to bring fairness for all the players.

Definitely not a period-correct advantage :classiclol: You better believe teamwork isn't on the list of things for players to consider before nerfing the tanks.

Also there are probably going to be mortars for the support class so we'll have a way to gently caress up snipers. That was the one thing i hated about bfh, snipers as unkillable god-kings.

Guys, help.

I can't figure out if I should get the early enlister edition.

I've been burned on all the other Battlefield and Battlefront dlc but I can't figure out if this will be better.

It seems like they've learned their lesson after Battlefront.

When I click on "Get EA Access Now", it redirects me to this page: https://login.live.com/login.srf?wa...=1033&id=292543,which is just for an Xbox Live subscription. How does one actually purchase an EA Access subscription?

Are you saying I can only get it through my Xbox One browser, and not online?
