I can't get into the grenade crossbow. It feels like a wet fart version of the medic's grenade launcher.

As an anti-personnel weapon it's OK. It's pretty poo poo against vehicles, does like 8 damage per shot against heavy vehicles.

OK, I feel like my class rank ups are going excruciatingly slowly. I hit rank 10 medic pretty quickly, but have been struggling with the other classes. Even Support, which now has the most kills of any of classes and that I am resupplying constantly is going so slowly, I'm only at rank 6 and am level 52. I play the objective, consistently score decently... am I missing something?

They have different amounts of xp needed for ranks. Scout is 30k per rank, medic 45k, and assault and support are 50k (Assault might actually be 55k, I can't remember for sure.) If you go to each class in the soldier screen the progress bar will tell you how much you need to rank up.

Yeah, I get that, it just feels incredibly slow for the other classes. I think I got rank 10 medic at like the mid 20s, and then haven't hit rank 10 on anything else despite being > 50 now. Feels weird.

yeah looking at my score total per kit I just managed to get a ton more points with medic, makes sense. I just want the Hellriegel :(

For Assault leveling focus on taking out vehicles (with your weapons, AA guns, and field guns) and always be the squad leader giving orders if you can. Even if no one is following your orders keeping a defend order on a safe objective is worth a lot per match. Assault is definitely the slowest since you don't have any easy hand out points from packs or spotting.

Dice please make it so when you hit level ten pilot class you can use those weapons on any class because that would be cool and they aren't over powered and i want to use them but I don't want to be a bailing poo poo lord. And maybe it will make pubbies learn not to be poo poo at vehicles (nah)

I'm rank 66 and rank 10 on all but medic. Medic is just awful and slow. I think I'm rank 7 and just don't want to play it anymore. I hate all the guns and pubbies mash A so I can't revive them. I'd rather play support

Medic was by far my fastest leveling class. Assault was second, and scout third. I just never play support so who knows if I will ever get that to 10.

I'm getting through them. Scout ranked up to 10 fastest due to my constant barrage of flares and playing with the Experimental. Assault wasnt too bad with the A-10 Hunter pre-patch. Working on Medic and Support now. Support should be alright now that it's possible to damage vehicles without having to get right up close to them.

Keep them alive so they don't die and respawn, then. If you're playing a medic and not almost constantly throwing out med packs, you're doing it wrong.

Yeah I'm a big fan of medic guns actually.

In all the battlefield games I tend to play medic, because I end up being really happy with their guns and they are useful.

Honestly for my last couple levels on assault and support I just sat on flags. 500 for a flag cap alone is like killing 5 dudes. Killing 5 dudes on a flag is like 100000000000000

- extra warbonds really need to go towards cosmetic poo poo

- they need even more cosmetic poo poo

- you should be able to pick handguns and skins for the tanker/pilot/cavalry class

- they should make vehicle skins for battlepacks

- I would like a custom hat

Oh I absolutely do. When I play medic or support I'm throwing med packs and ammo packs like I'm santa. But asking one person to keep a team of pubbies alive is an impossible task.

Play Argonne Forest and camp out in the bunker at B. It is a meatgrinder and you can get a shitload of medic points every match just from having a crate out and reviving everyone who dies.

I actually got from rank 7 to 10 in about 4 games tonight. It's easy when you're averaging 25k points per game.

I don't like camping anywhere though. I run objective to objective capping stuff over and over.

Haha holy poo poo yeah you definitely got a large number of tank kills tonight.

Great to play with everybody, thanks for chilling with us for the evening. My biggest accomplishment was using the middle of nowhere fortress gun on Empire to take the enemy dreadnaught from 100 to 1 health and have the killing blow stolen by some pubbie in a plane :(

Edit how do I know if people are seeing my emblem or not? Dickbutt is there to console the victims of my shoots.
