Oh and for MY IMMERSION, I turned off the announcer voice. On Conquest, this makes the game better. As US or Brits, you get loads of battle chatter about losing or taking objectives, but ehhh you can just glance up the HUD every 30 seconds or so and you get the same effect without an intrusive voiceover.

At medium range it does like 83 damage to anything, and headshots are surprisingly easy. The iron sights take some getting used to but after my second round of using the gun I too was something like 22-4. Now if only they would give scout something to deal with armor that's not their weak rear end armor piercing round. I changed my announcer to a male. Will probably end up turning him/her/xi off.

You can stand there for 3 minutes mashing the GIVE AMMO button, I know a big flashing GIVE AMMO icon pops up on their screen, but no, never even crosses their mind to press one button. Just last night, before I joined the goon murder group, a pubby was on mic yelling at me to drop ammo. Like he ignored the assault emblem over my mans, assault emblem next to my name in the squad, the lack of a prompt to ask for ammo, everything. I just don't get how pubbies are that dumb. Then I switched teams and murked him like 7 times red19fire fucked around with this message at 15:57 on Oct 24, 2016 |

Is it me or do some of these medal requirements seem really difficult?

# ? Oct 24, 2016 15:59 |

This rotating medal requirement and by the way only progress on one at a time is lame as gently caress. Honestly probably not going to bother because I can't be assed to wait for the slow menus to load so I can change medals every time I change game modes or class type. Just gonna continue being a tank whore.

Is there a way to hit the tank driver with these or is it just a "tick off 4 damage" gun? Or should I be looking for weak points? I also managed to shoot a plane in the engine with these which disabled the engine, that was pretty neat.

As far as I can tell it's reserved for when armor is sitting there smoldering and you can maybe finish it off. I assume that it would also prevent repairs. Pretty dope you struck a plane. Does that round travel slower, have less range, and more pronounced bullet drop?

# ? Oct 24, 2016 16:34 |

No idea, it was actually a pretty easy shot as far as plane-shooting goes (close and was lined up). I've taken plenty of potshots with normal rounds too and those do an ok amount of damage. I probably shouldn't be wasting ammo trying but the one time I hit a pilot will make it worth it.

Using the field guns to blow up guys on horses is endlessly fun. Really the field guns in general are great I just wish it wasn't an instant death sentence after you fire a round.

Popete posted:Using the field guns to blow up guys on horses is endlessly fun. Really the field guns in general are great I just wish it wasn't an instant death sentence after you fire a round. I love the field guns. Doing Operations on Argonne, I jumped onto the FG next to the bridge and just started hammering away at the behemoth down track. Amazingly, no-one flanked me, so I just kept pumping out shells non-stop. The train gunners noticed me, but I was able to keep disabling their turrets to stop them murking me. We lost the sector with about 10% of the train health left, but I stayed on the gun as the retreat sounded and blew that mother up. Took some time all told, but I basically did 95% of the damage to that train, and got the killing shot to unlock the codex entry. Good times. Here's a short clip of Gewehr M.95 Infantry from earlier. Nothing fancy, but had a nice killstreak going on despite a little server lag. https://youtu.be/21hI2HrlzmM

You can also switch kits and have your mines persist, I'll always switch to Assault and drop some AT mines on the train tracks if it looks like a train is going to be in my future

There was some dipshit in my squad yesterday that was going absolutely livid about the doors being locked on that mountain map. He blew himself up with grenades three times before I switched squads I do love that when people play fort in there there's always one guy that just HAS to peek outside and let the horde in

I am excited to get home and play this tonight. I had it downloading last night and by the time I was able to start messing around in the campaign I was falling asleep at the wheel. What little I've seen so far makes me think of COD world at war and that is awesome.

Skim Milk posted:the mortar is fuckin money My brother and I were playing Operations on the map I just mentioned during the first phase and was just mortaring the hell out of those trenches. Because there's a clear frontline in Operations they were all bunched together in the trenches and he once got something like 11 kills with one air burst mortar.

frank.club posted:gently caress this rocket grenade kill requirement Rifle grenade kills are actually pretty easy once you get a feel for it- the frags to a lot of damage to infantry in a pretty big radius. They've got like no deviation so you can often put them through narrow slits into bunkers, which is frequently the best way to get kills. Also try skipping them off walls/the ground to get better control over where they land- it can let you detonate them at a more normal grenade distance.

So many medic related tears on the internet regarding revives. I may switch out my needle for rifle nade just out of spite. On the subject of tanks, holy hell they nerfed the artillery light tank from beta. It doesn't kill infantry even with a direct hit and splash damage is negligible. It's strong against armor but the reload time is very slow. I had a heavy tank disabled and one hit from destruction but it popped its quick repair and drove off because I was waiting so long to reload. The machine gun is also weak against infantry. Seems like the flanker is the only viable option for light tanks

So far I'm loving the game but I can think of two issues that would really help if they were fixed: 1) Be able to spawn in unused transport vehicles from the map. 2) Support's limpet charges need more than one use. What's the point of running up to a tank with one if you can't kill it?
