sunday at work posted:Spotting flares should regernerate like mortars. They really should. Having just 2 is lame. Most support players seem to use the crate, so i have a hard time getting re-supplies in the field when I'm not support. It's funny because, when I play support, I see friendly snipers as free points: they always need resupplied.

As soon as it takes one hit from anything it just books it to the other side of the map. Shoots things from over there. Then comes back. Just drives back and forth the whole time. I don't think anyone ever kills it. I've tried. It's me. I'm the guy in the truck killing people as they rush at me trying to kill me with light anti tank grenades

Go at a high altitude, and since good tank/arty truck players are usually taking shots from a safe distance away they're often stationary and you can easily one shot them

If you know what direction the arty is always coming from, it's not to big of a deal. Trying to play with goons fails yet again. Had a good run on operations though. I can't believe, due to switching guns so much, that some.medic rifle is still my top weapon. I have gained 20 levels in other classes combined since I last played a medic.

Finally level 10'd all my classes. gently caress. So glad that's over with. Assault was literally the worst class to level up because it's what, like 55,000 points/level? Or some stupid poo poo like that?

Dumb question. When you're leveling up a class, is it only XP earned from class specific actions (resupplying, spotting, reviving, etc.) that goes toward leveling up a class? Or is it total XP earned while playing that class per match? Or some other formula? I ask because I feel like I should have leveled up classes more than I have, based on the XP I've earned per match. Is there any way to see your XP progress per class? I see the little bar at the top of the loadout customization screen, but I don't see any numbers associated with it.

You can view your level exp numbers in the soldier tab off the main menu. Click on the "weapons and gear" or whatever option. It should be the second one, below "customize soldier" which you should never click because it wipes your settings and takes a minute to load you into an empty server. Speaking of, my "vehicles" screen has been bugged since the last patch. All the icons look zoomed and it doesn't display the stats for anything I have a star with; just stays on the last thing I viewed that doesn't have a star. Anyone else run into this?

Such a  move that you can't view your class progress numerically through the in-game customization screen. The "weapons and gear" menu has the same progress bar in the same spot just with the addition of numbers.

Yeah that's what it was. but at least it wasn't a real setback.Anyway I've settled into support and medic pretty well, so now I'm trying out scout. What unscoped rifles do y'all typically use?

I used the m1903 experimental for most of the to lvl10, but since then the smle III Carbine has been working really well for me. 1 hit at most medium range distances. Run with flares and incendiary trip mines. Great fun

SMLE infantry and m95 infantry and my go tos. Smle because you can shoot 10 times before reloading and it's good mid range and the m95 because you don't have to stop adsing to rechamber a round so you can shoot a follow up shot incredibly quickly

None of the infantry or carbine scout rifles make you come out of ADS to work the bolt. The 95 marksman is the only scoped rifle that lets you stay ADS while working the bolt, but the 95 doesn't have a sweet spot. E: the Gewher 95 not the Russian. sunday at work fucked around with this message at 02:44 on Jan 17, 2017 |

The bodeo takes far too long to reload. I'd rather use a revolver with a top break or the mars automatic

Hey goons, (repost, not sure which thread is where is should be) Resident bad gamer here. ((Xbone Tag - OldCaptainLog)You might now me as the guy with an irritating parrot or the irritating guy with a parrot if you played XBONE destiny or BF3 for 360. Well, the parrots died and I'm still here bored. Let's play! Also, if I haven't played with you a bunch please send a message with a friend request. The lack of being able to make groups (to my knowledge) means I loose track of some of my best buds at times. Also my memory is a little hosed.

Haven't been able to join a Battlegoons party yet. Is it normal to try to join a community party then get sent to a server of the same map where I'm all by myself?

The repair tool and medic syringe are the funniest things to kill anyone with, this isn't up for debate. Close second to them is the Kolibri. Limpets aren't far off just because of the timer followed by the explosion.

The snipers I have problems with are the lens flares, so far away they can't be spotted, who are making these 300m kill shots.

I think my new strategy for playing Suez as Great Britain without a group is to see if I can limpet every building at B before it turns into a slog my team can't get out from. The answer is no. My team will always lose B.
