Is there any better feeling than leading a pubby squad to victory? I joined a frontlines match thirty minutes in with one telegraph left on our team. Rallied my pubs to flank and take out the FOUR dudes laying mortars and FIVE snipers picking at anyone near the telegraph. 10 minutes later we won the match, top squad, and I was 2nd on the team with 51-20 on the board. MLG pro gamers on the other team were very mad.

If you doubt the meme’s veracity, just skim through a couple pages in the PC thread vs this one, compare how many posts are complaining about the game that they play and how many are people posting cool clips they took while having fun

As a long time pc player I agree. Pc threads usually are complaining and nick picking stuff. Hell, BF3 and BF4 pc threads had barely clips of silly stuff.

I'm slowly leaning to consoles because I'm tired of the driver fuckup, devs being lazy and so. Now I stick with RPGs or whatever is exclusive or easier on my PC and play everything else on my 360/PS4.

I really want to try these new weapons and the new lmg damage model. What still surprises me is that coming from PC I'm 90% of the time the ammo guy of the server. Something that console players share with PC is the hate for free points from resupplies.

I tried to complete the shotgun challenge way too late and failed but I did unlock a slug variant of one and while it is heads or tails when shooting, its very satisfying to get a one hit kill.

Also whats the best sharing site to share some cool poo poo I did in game?

The 12G Automatic has to be the most violent weapon in the game. I feel like I'm barely controlling it when I press the trigger.

Shotguns are way more lethal at a distance than I'm used to in video games.

I had a lot of fun over the 2x xp weekend, and ranked up a ridiculous amount doing the operations to get the battlekit. I'm becoming not a terrible medic! Pretty good at support too. I completed the medic service assignment and the omnivorous palate one. To finish assault I need 1 more vehicle destroyed with anti-tank grenade, and something else, and to finish support I need to kill 9 more people with the crossbow.

Anyone willing to drive a tank up to me and let me blow it up?

I use KontrolFreeks so I usually have high sensitivity as I love the control they give. I don't know but I feel much more precise with them.

My sensitivity settings are:
Soldier stick: 35%
Soldier Zoom: 100%
Vehicle stick: 40%
Stick aiming acceleration: 0%
-Controller Right Stick-
Center Deadzone: 18%
Axial deadzone: 15%
Max imput threshold: 100%
Uniform soldier aiming ON and 133%

I just messed with the settings until it felt right for me. I'm sure that I hosed something since I can't play scout for poo poo.

Well well, mister fancy-pants, I hope you're wearing your matching sweater today, or you'll be cut down like the ugly tree you are.
It's getting about that time again so I looked up info for the next expansion.



Highlights:
  • Turning Tides has been cut into halves and we'll get two maps in December and two more in January. As of now only the first two maps have an associated Operation.
  • 6 new guns: M1917 Trench Carbine, Maschinenpistole M1912/P.16, Farquhar-Hill, M1917 MG, Carcano M91 Carbine, and Type 38 Arisaka. 2 new melee weapons too but I'm the only one who actually cares about that poo poo
  • The expansion's new elite class is the Infiltrator, which seems to have higher running speed and can supposedly "hide in plain sight," but we all know everyone will figure out the tell within 48 hours
  • 2 new vehicles: A brand new murderboat and a mini blimp!

Longer clips of mainly LMGing pubbies. If the Madsen wasn't so obtrusive with that huge banana magazine on top, it could be one of my favourite LMGs. Same happened to me with the Bren on CoD 1 and 2 on PC.

As someone with around 20 service stars with the Madsen, you get used to it. It's worth it for all the other great things about it.

Finally put some time in the PS4 version. I got the medals this week for playing frontlines and supply drop. The supply drop one took two maps. It took forever for the Frontlines one. I'm done with that mode until they make me play it again.
