Was the Pancor Jackhammer in any of the Battlefields? Apparently three were ever made and only one survived testing. I'm mad about it being in Battlefield!

How about that m95 where you use the en bloc clip as a stripper clip.

Fresh Shesh Besh posted:Hey, nerds, just a heads up: The game is 22% off on Green Man Gaming right now if you have an account. Up from 12% just recently. I suggest you grab it now because I wouldn't feel comfortable holding out for 25%. Tempted, and I do trust GMG. But if there are problems, from what I hear, Origin support is a lot better... I have pre-ordered games through GMG, and it is always so annoying waiting for the keys to finally be released... Always rumours that there are problems getting keys on release day, etc.

DoctorStrangelove posted:I think he's more referring to how the FAMAS model in BF4 is a mashup of two or three different versions of the gun. Correctimundo, it's not a 'real' FAMAS. I was initially pretty put off by BF1 having lots of nigh-unreal firearms, but it became quickly obvious that the game isn't about historical accuracy. It's practically an alt-universe, or a 1919 continuation of WW1. It's still really, really fun so in the end whether it's real or wacky, I don't much mind. If you can't play the game because you're allowed to top off an M95, well,

I feel describing the setting as alt universe is a bit too strong, you might as well go full Codename Eagle/Necrovision with that term. I'd say it is more of a series of what if scenarios set in late WW1.

The Pancor Jackhammer will see a revival around the time the US annexes Canada and China invades Alaska. A mysterious lone wanderer in the aftermath of nuclear holocaust will use one with surgical precision to leave nary an eyeball nor a crotch in his ambling path intact.

It is the famas-felin a modified version of the famas g1 commando and part of Frances version of the land warrior system, that is why it looks different than a standard a1 or g1 model.

I see that it's a FELIN. In my (admittedly limited) research and or gunporn jerking off of FAMAS models, I've not seen a G1 modified for FELIN, as opposed to G2 which seems quite common. In fact I'm not even sure the G1 went into production or was just a prototype for G2. So it's a gun using an updated land-warrior program stuffed on to a non-production model firearm. Check out the receiver grip and the 25 round mag, it's a 'plausible' firearm.

You could target the groin in Fallout? I knew about being able to aim for the eyes, but not the groin.

Hell they still run the a1's made in the 70's lol. Not like it will matter soon with them switching to the 416 anyhow. Trust me "gun" people got all kinds of salty and pissed when they changed the ammo count in bf3 to reflect the appropriate gun. Dice even had the exact model in the patch notes since people were crying so hard. If it hadn't been for that I would never have known about all of Frances cobbled together versions of the famas.

Party Plane Jones posted:Groin targeting was only a thing in 1/2, and you really got no benefits for groin targeting over eye targeting. Groin hits were more likely to knock your opponent down, make then drop weapons or lose AP on their next round, and it was an easier target to hit than the eyes. Once you had the combat skill with your chosen weapon high enough, though, the eyes offer a much greater chance of rolling the most ridiculous damage multipliers available and ignoring damage reduction from armor, etc. Groin was one of the better choices in the early game if you were doing called shots, both for the effects and the flavor text. "I hope she wasn't planning on having children." The head was also solid for stuns and knockouts. Deathclaws were tough as fuckin' nails everywhere but the eyes, where they were merely beefy as heck. Late game, you shoot for the eyes on anything (with a few odd exceptions) if you still have a decent chance to hit, because a guy at 1 hp with a minigun does as much damage as a guy with 200 hp and a minigun, so you just need him dead ASAP. E: in any boxing matches, target the head. Pvt.Scott fucked around with this message at 06:14 on Sep 25, 2016 |

I was maybe going to make one once the 2142 revive servers start processing unlocks and stats correctly so I don't have to co-opt the BF4 thread. But I won't do that if there's going to be a megathread anyway

Official system requirements:quote:MINIMUM SPECS Pretty beefy minimum specs on the CPU/RAM. Maybe some of the other maps are more punishing. People are laughing at the AMD equivalent, but apparently BF1 can use the extra cores. I can't even remember if I have hyperthreading enabled currently on my 17 2600k@4.4GHz. I wonder if it could actually take advantage now.

Greenman had it for as low as $45 at one point. That's about as low as you could reasonably expect to get a preorder from anywhere semi-reputable.
