Gonz posted:I'd enjoy knowing who killed me and where they are on the map after i'm dead. A split second red blur of their body doesn't really help. Keep getting destroyed by snipers on Arras and Aerodrome and hell if I know where they are afterwards. I feel like this encourages endless camping. Why not just functionally remove them from the game then, because that's what you're asking? They shine a 5 megawatt flashlight from their scope when they look down it. The game's done everything they can do to discourage camping (actually have bullet drop to encourage player skill, put massive scope glint into the game, only headshots 1-hit kill, if Support can get MMG fire on their position it makes them worthless, spotting them and having a bomber/fighter strafe them or a tank shoot their position, just loving blowing up the building they're in). Try outplaying them, it's very satisfying when you pin a Sniper as a Support and your Recon guy counter-snipes them, or as a Medic popping a smoke grenade and letting everyone reposition somewhere else while they sit there helpless.

And the fact that DICE actually came out and said “yea we acknowledge there’s a problem with visually identifying enemy players in our game and we are working to fix it”, should put to rest your claim that it’s just anecdotal.

Megaman's Jockstrap posted:Why not just functionally remove them from the game then, because that's what you're asking? No, I mean, there were several instances last night on Aerodrome where I was getting sniped as I was walking out of my team's primary initial spawnpoint and I didn't get a chance to see any glint or anything. And then it just sort of shows a red glob a half mile away with no specificity. In every other BF game, when I died, I knew who killed me and where to go to put an end to them. Sometimes i'd get there and sometimes I wouldn't, but it was nice to have a post-death camera showing me where my killer(s) was/were. I enjoyed sniping in BF1. Most of the time, i'd carefully snipe people out of the gun carriages in the behemoth blimp when it showed up. But getting sniped as i'm trying to move 20 feet forward after I spawn and then the game showing who killed me for 2 seconds through a glaucoma and vasoline smeared lens is kind of a dick move. And you know as well as I do that pubbies don't give a gently caress about concepts like flanking or countersniping. All they're interested in is running up the middle and turning every map into a bottlenecked stalemate where nothing gets accomplished. Gonz fucked around with this message at 23:20 on Dec 12, 2018 |

You could throw a giant gently caress off "Sniper is here" arrow in the kill cam and people will still do it. If you're getting sniped from your spawn your team has bigger fish to fry than riding across the map to kill a sniper.

I don't experience such horrendous poo poo when i'm playing with friends and all of us are in voicechat together. But there's a 50% chance that every server I join, it's going to put me on a team where everyone is far too interested in gathering at 1 objective and ignoring everything else because "MUH K/D RATIO!". When Battlefield is played with teamwork in mind, it's so much fun. And that's been the case in every single game in the series, going back 16 years. But when it turns into "meatgrinder hallway (feat. stationary machineguns)", it's the absolute worst. Yeah, just keep hurling yourselves into the maelstrom of bullet fire, dummies. That'll definitely help us get past them and to other objectives.

part of that speaks to map design that can't be fixed with tweaks to game mechanics, and frankly to emergent ways players do things on said maps so it's hard to control for

But the other worst possible feeling I get in BF games in general is when one team has simply got all their poo poo together, and most of the team i'm on gives up on trying to rush anything to try and take it, so instead, they fall back to their main spawn and turn into snipers taking meaningless potshots for the rest of the round, and you lose by 300-400 points because God forbid you die in a videogame!. Gotta save all those limited respawns for the next map! Respawns are limited! (Or so many people think)

Gunshow Poophole posted:yeah lol anyone who's spent more than 30 seconds with me in a game (especially on defense in whatever mode) will read this and chuckle softly at thoughts of the GunPoop Charge I'm the same way. I will gladly finish a round with a K/D of 15 kills and 30 deaths if it means we won the map. And because I play the Objectives in addition to shooting at people and reviving/resupplying them, i'll usually end up in the top 10 for points every time because while it's definitely important to get kills in a multiplayer FPS game, it's also very important to do what each mode asks of you to create that winning condition. I think when I stopped playing BF4 when BF1 came out, my total KDR was something like 26,000 kills and 27,000 deaths but I had a poo poo ton of wins, captures and assists and something like 7,500 jihad jeep C4 kills. I give no fucks. I will keep coming like a Terminator robot every single time until the round is complete. In BF1 for the PS4, I ended up Top 100 on the planet for shotgun kills, because I was always the guy to run into a house first, or charge into a ditch or a trench and empty the place out. EDIT: That said, I am loving the poo poo out of the 12G automatic shotgun. It's somehow even deadlier than the BF1 version, especially at medium range.

I'm under the impression they took that out for BFV and replaced it with some minor audio-visual fuckery that isn't very distinguishable from the rest of the chaos going on. Also its Tei being Tei.

With MMG recoil and accuracy you rely on luck to not get killed by a half-decent sniper. Lewis gun with bullet speed, both recoil upgrades and 3x scope is your best bet for really long ranges.

Speaking of bayonetes, are there any guns in this game that have them? I so desperately miss those kills from the last game. I know there wasn't a lot of focus on bayonetes in WWII, but it'd be nice if there was at least one gun that allowed me to scratch that itch in BF5.
