FastestGunAlive posted:I think the panzerfaust damage to tanks is fine alone but it’s a real game changer now that people don’t show up on the minimap when shooting. Combined with the slow turret traverse speed, yes I think tanks need some tweaks before release. However, neither of the beta maps are ideal for armor. Tanks seem pretty good to me, and that's coming from both the receiving and sending ends of the panzerfaust. The MG just annihilates dudes. My one complaint is that the suspension seems very rigid. I'm not getting the "tank tread" feel of tanks in other BF games. More like driving a tank in Call of Duty mission where it's super clunky because they don't really do vehicle combat

You know, I hope every map in V is like the ones from the beta. They were actually alright, minus point A on the British side of the city map because there were too many trains and could hide ten million people. The German's H was a place you couldn't hide, at all. It was too skewed. People were complaining about where the big open tank battle spaces were and all I have to say is, gently caress you. 90% of BF1's maps are trash. Horribly designed trash. I say this as someone who likes the game a lot. One, maybe two, of the DLC maps are good while the rest are loving awful. Spawning miles away from your first point, wide open spaces, running for 15 minutes as the battlefield changes around you or massive wide-open spaces where sniping is king because there's no cover, or meatgrinders where it's utterly near impossible to take from the defenders. It's awful.  flat-out did not know how to design any of the maps for that game. The ones that are even remotely good I'm writing up as a happy accident, or they outsourced it, or an intern made it and put it into the game without anyone noticing before he was brought out back and sacked because he was good at his job.So thank your lucky stars that the two beta maps are good, had cover and are compact enough to allow for moment-to-moment action while big enough for tanks to make a difference. Or who knows, the beta maps will end up being the best in the game while the rest are the same garbage from 1.

It just wasn’t clicking for me though. However I only spent 3 or 4 rounds in a tank, I spent most my beta time as infantry, so I may not have gotten the feel down. I hear you on the clunky feel as well. It felt like I was driving the crappy BF1 tanks still, I expected them to handle just a little better. Not being able to stop and reverse/accelerate on a dime anymore is something I can respect

I suppose it’s too late in development to change V’s weapon upgrade path system. at the least be able to revert or unequip the more drastic changes to a gun like a changed fire rate/bayonet/removable magazine.

Didn't see this posted, dev feedback from the official page: Squad play and Matchmaking – Several changes are already in place and additional improvements will be made to secure the best possible launch experience. Attrition – Scarcity of ammo and health is something we want to get just right, and the Open Beta gave us a lot of info on how to balance it. Visibility – Distance haze, lighting, general contrast and other visibility aspects are being tinkered with, letting you see your enemies better in the world. Death Experience – We’re adjusting bleed out and spawn times to make your virtual deaths as good as virtual deaths can be. Vehicles – Damage states, movement, and weaponry of tanks and other vehicles are being tweaked. TTK and TTD – We’re adjusting automatic weapons to make the Time to Kill and Time to Death as fair and fun as possible. Progression and Customization – We’re working on making the user journey one that’s smooth and personal. Chat Profanity Filter on PC – We are evaluating the Open Beta feedback and are making many adjustments for launch.

Actual substance to the dev comments now: TLDW; Tweaking attrition: • Devs want to nudge attrition in the right direction but still want it to be fully part of the game. • More ammo on spawn. • More max ammo capacity. • Ammo tweaking will be weapon specific (not all weapons may be affected, some more than others). • Medpack on spawn. Improving visibility: • Adding a haze to the background to make enemies stand out. (Example by u/CrafterOfSwords) • Fixing some lighting issues (notably in Rotterdam). • Fine tuning lighting in specific locations. Death experience and pacing: • Devs agree with the community that current death timer made the game feel too slow. • Devs want highs and lows moments in the game, but find that the high moments are not high enough (this is partially caused by soldier downtime). They want moments of pure chaos. • Tweaking "bleeding out" timer, you are not punished anymore if you decide to hang on, respawn timer will be reduced accordingly. Audio immersion: • Fixed the audio bugs which contributed to make the game too silent. Audio should feel like war once again. Time to kill and time to death: • Trying to find that sweet spot to cater to both players who love it or hate it. • From the data, players have learned to move closer to cover to avoid getting killed too easily. • Certain weapons stand out (more effective at most engagement distances), "won't name specifics *cough*STG*cough*". Those are gonna be tweaked to "bring them into the fold". • Confirmed Netcode issues in regards to Time to death, "you receive more damage than you should be in one update, which is due to packet loss, netcode, delays and high rate of fire weapons". Currently looking into fixing this. Vehicles (Tanks): • Beta testers felt that the tanks were too slow/heavy and not offensive enough against infantry, but dev says the more agile/anti-infantry tanks weren't in the open beta, as well as anti-aircraft vehicles. • Devs were happy with the tuning on the new turret system on the heavy tanks, but plan to make the turret turn faster on the medium and lighter tanks. Light tanks will have a "very fast" turret turning speed. • Devs want the tanks to be the "dragons of our game", once they show up on the field, "everyone should relate to that". If you see a friendly tank, you should push alongside it, if you see an enemy tank, you should cower in fear. • Heavier tanks are robust, hard to take down, but slow, less effective against infantry, more effective against other vehicles, and the opposite is true for lighter tanks, more agile, used to kill infantry, harass and flank. • Tweaked systemic damage (such as canon disabled or track disabled), they want to reward players who chip away at tanks without necessarily destroying them, but don't want to penalize tank drivers too much, leaving them with nothing to do. Added turret damage which slows down turret turning speed, as well as engine damage, which cripples its movement. Vehicles (Airplanes): • Beta feedbacks tell that the difference between the two fighter planes was too great and people didn't like it. Devs are taking step to make them much more similar and better than they were in open beta. • Overall players found fighter planes not agile enough. • Not being able to acquire ground targets as easily as in previous titles. • Players most happy with the BF 109 plane, but devs say even that one wasn't were we needed it to be. • Tweaked visibility for pilot and gunner, extended spotting range. "We want planes to participate in the ground combat". • Dev excited about the broader spectrum of vehicle classes in BFV, says it was a bit lacking in BF1. • Talking about anti-aircraft tanks, such as the Flakpanzer and Valentine MK 1 AA, they have "tons of canons and tons of bullets flying through the sky". Next episode within two weeks.

The beta was so fun and everything they're saying and showing about what the game will be both at release and beyond sounds so goddamn good, I'm gonna be sad and mad if the external factors cause it to sell like poo poo and they give up on it after like six months or a year.

Yeah I wish they’d left ammo alone but whatever. Not thrilled about the haze. I liked how vibrant Rotterdam was in the beta. Looks the same as turning down draw distance and gently caress paying for a worse looking game if it’s not performance-related.

You can't have a "dragon" that shakes up the whole game if that dragon is actually a thing which both teams have, often in multiples, respawning multiple times per phase lol. The BF1 Behemoths were much more appropriate for this role but it doesn't seem there is anything like them here, unless they've kept a surprise for us tightly under wraps.

Even Arras seems to have only two tanks per side? BF1's lack of vehicles compared to BF4 was kinda understandable with it being WW1, but come on with BFV we need to go back to maps with the amount of vehicles like Golmud: 5 tanks per side and all the assorted vehicles on top of that. And lots more transport vehicles please I beg you dice.

But is a okay thing for me to say we use to have a balance here in BF, where neither infantry or vehicles made the other side pointless. Is okay to me to ask for that balance to continue and for BF to continue to have vehicles and infantry, and not one at the expense of others. video is not related https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-aBP-c28_1M

They put so much work into airplanes, allow multiples of them on the field, but limit tanks? It's crazy. They weren't just a major part of combat, they also played into cap strategy, when tank spawn control was a reward for capping specific points. Guillermus posted:Same with previous ones.

My guess is the scenario limits the anti-tank weaponry which makes tanks hard to kill. The easy balancing method is to limit them. I agree large scale vehicle deployment is what differentiates BF from COD. Hence why I prefer modern settings with lots of effective anti-vehicle gear where you also get more vehicles in turn.

I have 700+ hours in some games like the Planetsides, but to a BF game I can't give more than the first two months. After two months I feel I have experienced all theres to experience in the new game, and then other fat cool game appear that capture my attention, and another after it, and another, and I forgot about the last BF, and I wait for the next BF game. BF don't feel to me like a game where you would put that much hours. The maps are not that big. In the end, everyone would learn the best paths to attack, and instead of innovation, the game will move through the motions.
