BlindSite posted:Played for about 4 hours yesterday after getting this for xmas. Played around with Scout a whole bunch. The SMLE is decent but has always felt kinda inconsistent to me. My favorite short to mid range rifle is the m95. It doesn't have a sweet spot but it has a straight bolt so it can fire relatively quickly for a bolt action. The m95 carbine is the rifle that got me to scout rank 10.

I'll check it out tonight, thanks. What zeroing distance do you run around with? I was playing with 75 a lot unless i had a flag to gauge the distance and id change from there. 75 felt ok but it was a little tough at times to change on the fly based on what i thought they were at. I guess that's the point. BlindSite fucked around with this message at 00:39 on Dec 28, 2016 |

Trying to rack up mortar kills - so many maps are terrible for mortars. Amiens in particular, both TDM and conquest. Also turns out when I'm trying to do a thing and not just running around shooting mans, capping flags and nuking vehicles, I'm really loving terrible. Go figure.

I've gotten a service star with 25 different weapons/vehicles now. I'm currently working on the Kolibri baby pistol. I have 17 kills with it! 😊

Infantry m95 is a beast. Stick with your team, pop flares and shoot who they do. You will clean up anything they can't take down easily.

+1 on the Gewehr 95. I try other ironsights rifles, I want to love them, but I always come home to this one. I'm going to unlock the carbine variant next which looks (on paper) like it should be better yet can can't cycle out from 75m, but as I never mess with that on ironsights rifles sounds like it could be a straight win.

An hour or more spent on lovely TDM and Amiens conquest maps to get 5 mortar kills, 10 minutes on Fao and I got the remaining 5.

Why bother? Is it a medal or something? Honestly you could have gotten way more xp than the medal gives if you just play normally. I've done one medal and it was because the game just bugged out and chose it for me. Medals suck and aren't worth the tiny amount of xp they give

I don't really like playing support so just getting this one out of the way. I want to get support to 10 to unlock the C93 pistol and chasing a medal is one way to get me to play it.

In more medal chasing news, turret kills don't count towards "In a life, get 5 kills as support"

How many Xbox live clips can you edit into one montage with upload studio? I've been recording all my Kolibri kills because they are the most humiliating way to kill someone I've found so far. I want to make a montage of baby pistol kills.

And he's dead. Well I shoot the enemy and avenged him. There was nothing I could do.'

Sorry Sk8, I've been working from home for the holiday, and my girlfriend just quit her job, so I haven't really had time to play lately. I suspect that after NYE I will have more time to play. Family functions, work, visiting friends. I'll be happy once the holidays are over.

I got the game a few days ago. I was surprised with how much of the single player campaign was available before the whole game downloaded; I got to the third tank mission before taking a break and I was sure I'd hit a wall after pretty much every cutscene. I played two multiplayer Operations but I'm still getting used to spotting enemies and being an effective killing machine coming from Blops 3 and Titanfall 2. Add me on PS4 (kittypoptart) so I have some goons to squad up with.

Welcome New Players; Tips and Tricks to Be Not Terrible: A Handy Reference Guide 1. never use any gun that has the word factory in it's name. Factories are the tool of capitalist overlords to enslave the working class, and the history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggles 2. the best class is, in order: medic assault scout tanker pilot cavalry 3. the best map is the one in europe 4. america as a result is the weakest country to play as since they never receive their +5 combat strength bonus for fighting on their home continent 5. all praise to the almighty artillery truck
