I've been lost in XCOM 2 all week, but these endorsements for the experimental scout gun and the arty truck have given me big plans for my gaming time next week.

That's me, I'm the one spreading the word about experimental scout gun. It's so good and redeems the scout class completely. I rarely feel like I lose a fight because my weapons not strong enough and more because the enemy got the drop on me. It's not op because it'll still lose a lot of one on one even ground fights. But wait I have spot flares! You shouldn't allow the enemy to get the drop on you. Great but what about heavy armor or sentry classes? You bug the gently caress out and use your K bullets from a smart distance or try to find a place to ambush a heavy guy and bayonet the heck out of him. The scout class really can be a little bit of everything) except a medic) as long as you don't play it like a sniper. When you're using k bullets aim for the treads. If you can disable the track, throw a flame nade at the tank.

Sammus posted:The flammable trip mines are hilarious, and probably the only reason I play scout at this point. I love placing them in random corridors around the outside of points and then running off. If they weren't scout only, I'd probably never play scout. I was being a cheesy bastard yesterday on empire's edge working the turret at G. I set a fire trap at the door and another at the bottom is the stairs. I'm sitting there merrily bombarding D and E when I hear the distinct *click* *Ffffffffff*. Jump out the turret ready to defend myself, and the whole stairwell is on fire with one charred corpse in the middle of the stairs. Fire traps are fun!

MortLansky posted:I feel like this comes up every Battlefield game, but is there any way to see if you have mines/explosives deployed or not destroyed? Also, what is the AT mine limit? If it's just three that feels wrong. Limit is three. I was trying to dump a bunch of mines on the Suez tracks yesterday in preparation for a train and watched my three old ones disappear as I placed the new ones. I'm pretty sure there wasn't a limit in the beta, tho.

Is anyone else getting a glitch where selecting an airplane at the start of a round (during the 10 second round start countdown) the player is teleported into space without an airplane, where you promptly fall and die when the round starts due to being so far out of the playing field? I'm not sure but this also appears to waste an aircraft spawn, it just never shows up. It's happened to me three times now, once with squad mates who were supposed to spawn in a bomber and we all died.

Game has been way buggier since the patch. I've had to quit like 10 rounds because I couldn't spawn, or my screen was freaking out, or it was all black.

You don't have to play support either, though it's more designed for that. I've got suppression assists with shotguns, bolt action rifles, hell even field guns and turrets. And don't forget those fixed heavy machine guns. You can suppress the gently caress out of people with those. E- oh and don't forget to spot while in between firing so your team knows what you're shooting at.

Used to not count if your squadmates killed them (because a "Squad Suppression Assist" is different than a "Suppression Assist") but I believe they fixed that. You can definitely hit them. Just don't kill them. You can get both a kill assist and a suppression assist on the same enemy.

I got the support class to 10 expecting the huot to be as game changing as the martini henry has been for me and boy am I disappointed. I should have prob done my research on that first but the C93 alone may have been worth the grind. Almost to level 8 on Assault and am gonna get some squad bonuses and grind for that hellreigel later on. Also, I have purchased a server but I refuse to announce its debut until they make it so I can add admins. If they dont then I'm just going to let it expire.

The rent-a-server program says it's a 'beta' when you go to that page. Right now it's basically a place for you to play using rules that you want and nothing else. The fact that they don't allow admin functions is the biggest red flag for me. E: yeah, nowhere to upload banners either. The Battlelog website handled everything for BF4 and this seems like everything is done through your console. https://www.reddit.com/r/Battlefield/comments/5d4bxq/bf1_do_not_rent_a_server/ If you trust Reddit, this post has a pretty comprehensive list of all the features that are missing.

Oh we already have a banner made and everything dont worry about that one. I'm not going to gently caress with the server unless other people can admin it with me because I am on at weird times and in spurts. Also what fun is having one unless I can use it to make some of the faggots on this board mad (they know who they are because they are still mad about our BF3 server) as well as being able to ban a whole entire ethnic group or country from it as a whole just for a laugh. Last time it was Brazil.. not sure who it will be this time havent decided.

That's true, but you can certainly get kill assists without suppression credit, and if you're actively trying to complete a medal, you feel pretty silly if you keep killing the pubbies you're trying to suppress.

You want to wing them 1-2 times to weaken them and then start shooting above their heads after spotting them so someone can finish them off.

winter.mute posted:i've been thinking about doing that that Samsung makes good ones. I do warn you please don't do this unless you have a lot more money than sense. Just buy a 2tb sshd for less than a third of a price of the same size ssd. The speed increase on it will give you the advantage over 90 percent of players. I played Bf1 before with a sshd and I still got to vehicles first on a fresh map load. Ssd is faster but not as fast as you think it'd be, even on a pro.

Going from Support and Assault to Medic is bad. Having semi-auto weaponry that you actually have to aim is throwing me off! But boy oh boy, so many points from heals and revives. How is the rank 10 Medic gun anyway?
