Pellet dispersion is constant and the spread determines where the dispersion pattern is centered.

I tend to hit and kill people a lot faster just hipfiring than ADSing. I'll do it sometimes if it's long range but I have better luck just sg-ing people at long range from the hip. Probably because I can't aim anymore

Just went 65-0 in the artillery truck They kept complaining that I was sniping them with it. Ended up calling me a cheater. That feels real good I feel like the arty truck is the most underrated vehicle in the game

Arty truck can be good on Defense for that purpose of just widdling down tickets but real bad for Offense as Heavy or Landship is generally just much better as a rally-ing point for convincing your team to follow you in and wreck poo poo to move forward.

I really, really, really hate that you can permanently kill AA in Ops. I just saw a plane shitter go 125:2 because he instantly nuked every AA before anyone could get near it. Then he just farmed for the entire game, and my team was too loving dumb to shoot at the plane. I was the sole source of both of his deaths, one by an AA that lived just long enough for me to disable him and make him crash, and the other with the tankgewehr. Basically, gently caress people for being too dumb to shoot at a loving plane that is farming endlessly.

To be honest, no, not without either buffing the Pederson 1903 or making it so you can lose a primary weapon in exchange for more flares, armor, grenades, pistol ammo. The play style for scout is encouraged to sit and be a sniping poo poo forever because close combat with bolt actions means you're being outclassed in volume of fire by literally everyone and ROF is usually King.

Just shoot people in the body once with any rifle then switch to a pistol and spray them with wild hipfire to death.

My favorite dumb thing is when someone grabs a tank, drives it straight into a building, vectors it so that none of the guns can fire at anything and tries to kill something outside the combat area with the main cannon. Like some poo poo that's part of the skybox or something. It's happened like three times so far.

I generally just run around with the pistol when I want to be aggressive, which is almost always. You do get outclassed often, but the flares can help you get the jump on them. The Frommer Stop is probably the best spam pistol as it has an incredibly fast reload speed. I guess you could bring incendiary trip wires and try to finish off anyone who gets set on fire, but I always forget to use them.

Nah, I was on suez and I was single handedly destroying the enemy push whenever they tried to do anything. We're talking early on me having 20 kills while the next guy maybe had 5? Maybe I could have done the same in a heavy tank, but I doubt it. At one point an entire squad decided to get rid of me and the only reason I got away was because of the artillery trucks speed. A regular tank woulda been hosed

finally leveled support to 10, have all the unlocks now. huot is really low recoil but low mag, low damage, low fire rate makes it kinda garbage. c93 on the other hand, great pistol. fires fast, good hipfire, speedy reload, 9 shots. I like it a lot.

I really don't understand this mindset of "getting a lot of kills with a vehicle" is "stat padding" and somehow not anti-PTFO. Killing the other team is the entire point of this game, you kill them, then you can take their poo poo. It's not like you're killing mans that would otherwise just let you have the objective... It's all good to do medic and give ammo out and I commend people for doing this, but if your team is not out-killing the other team then you are at a massive disadvantage. The landship is a piece of poo poo grenade magnet with minimal offensive ability and nothing to deal with the swarms of assaults that will come out of every corner to rape you. You don't need to waste a tank slot to have a spawn point. The spawn system in this game is so hosed up that you can spawn so easily on your squad with minimal restrictions. That being said, if you aren't helping to secure your back flags and preventing flankers because you are a brainless pubbie who just wants to run around with the blob of other brainless pubbies then you are a piece of poo poo. Also if you are a lovely sniper that's not even getting a lot of kills, stop doing that.

Had a superrelaxing game today. I was scout with the flare gun to spot poo poo. Started has squad leader, found a horse. I traveled from flag to flag, directing my minions and flareing the hell of the everything. My team turned into a anaconda devouring the childrens of the enemy team. It was that map with a big castle in the beach (Fao?), so we took their castle too. Enemy team got the ship, everyone mounted on ship and manned the canons of the castle. hehe. poor thing melted.

In Rush or operations, you need to take points as attackers so killing your enemy doesn't equal your guys on the point. Defenders have unlimited tickets and can respawn very fast. Sometimes as a tanker you need to advance in points to alleviate the attention in your infantry and perhaps get some class changes. If the enemy has tanks up and it's just wiping your infantry you need to destroy it or at least alleviate the attention from them.

Did they mix the Mondragon Storm and the level 10 Medic weapon up? because that rifle is no way worth locking behind any level.

Mostly I ads with a 2.0x zoom in my shotguns just to search out grey targets laying among grey debris laying in grey mud because I can't see poo poo. It's purely a recon feature and has zero to do with actual firing mechanics.

Arty truck can be good on Defense for that purpose of just widdling down tickets but real bad for Offense as Heavy or Landship is generally just much better as a rally-ing point for convincing your team to follow you in and wreck poo poo to move forward. It's map dependent. You see A7Vs 1/6 sitting back and making shots on Sinai or Empire's edge all the time, the default HE cannon is lenient and it can two shot infantry with canister shot from 120m away. Strictly on a capping basis the A7V and landship will often miss out on capping if an armoured car is ahead of them. The artillery truck under the same circumstances can blow up a tank and drive in from 150m to contest a point in time. I frequently get flag defender or flags captured accolades in the arty truck. Or blow up every tank spawned by the other team. On Suez or Ballroom Blitz, all tankers are going to stay away from C unless they're certain they can get away with it. The inclinations on the outside are good for hitting turret gunners on the blimp however! SeanBeansShako posted:Did they mix the Mondragon Storm and the level 10 Medic weapon up? because that rifle is no way worth locking behind any level. The Huot for the support isn't cause for celebration either. It's fairly arbitrary, the pistols locked by class aren't super different other than aesthetic. I was disappointed by the howdah being a revolver with 50% less capacity instead of firing buckshot. Speaking of bad maps with silly sightlines, I hate snipers who spend the match hugging the rocks on the opposite bank of A, especially if they're on my team. At least you can kill the enemy ones with a field gun. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OwNNbo5JGSY

They really need to find a way to nerf the Heavy and buff the landship. Even though the landship is like 300 times cooler the autocannon heavy (breakthrough variant) is better in every way possible.

It's one of the many areas they're just restricted by subject matter. There's no real way to "fix" the Heavy tank, it's just badly designed. Either it's a deathtrap and not worth getting in, or it's not a deathtrap and people get in it and it has no vulnerable angles. The landship could be fixed by making it a 2 person vehicle, with one person controlling both side guns and increased turret traversal speed.

If they made it so that every corner and angled slope of the A7V didn't deflect shots that would be nice. A tank that isn't invulnerable 75% of the time would be an improvement in the right direction but dice should have known the landship is inferior on paper. It is going to be the easiest vehicle in the game to mobility disable, the slowest land vehicle in the game and have gigantic blindspots like no other.

I was disappointed by the howdah being a revolver with 50% less capacity instead of firing buckshot. I like the Howdah, though. It's a two-shot kill, has really accurate hipfire at close range, and can empty all four barrels super fast. When somebody rounds the corner, give a quick double tap and down they'll go. I kinda like to think of it as the new Shorty 12G. Of course, the problem with that is that assault is already the close-range specialist class, so your primary most likely does just fine at close range already....

Please help I can't stop using the trench periscope. It's amazing to highlight a group of flanking enemies and then watch as pubbies immediately turn around and light them up. Also it gives off a glimmer similar to a sniper's scope and I just had a 10 minute "duel" with another sniper because of it. Highlight was when 3 snipers simultaneously were firing at my periscope.

Landship is pretty decent if your talking and working with your squad. Pubbies really just need to learn if you want to gently caress with people in a tank without contributing or relying on the squads team work angle, just spawn a light tank kay?

When you can use it as a medic, I strongly suggest the Mondragon Storm. SMG wise go for the Automatico Trench if you don't give any fucks about mid range and just want to dump a mag close range too.
