BFV medics don't need SMGs buffed, just give them the Villar-Perosa.

That was maybe my favorite weapon in BF1, shame it was so rare to get to use it. It was kind of like an MG42 in handgun form, just happened to have a real tiny magazine. It's like a Bren gun was pregnant with twins.

it's sort of weird to play with streyr and wargod they operate in this rarefied state where even when there's six people on the server they end up with fifty kills in a conquest game

and to every other goon who is just constantly, foreverially reviving my stupid rear end: thank you. I can't chase tanks without you.

I am frustrated how unwelcoming is to people like me. I love the BF games, and I would love to play a BF game again.

I have tried again this weekend to play and enjoy BFV, but bounced on the surface again. I am a small minded pitiful petty idiot.

I hope they add a lot of unlocks to each class and a whole set of maps with more "flavour".

Nice that they've fixed the killcam so that when I get one-shotted by a Lee Enfield, I'll know whether it was from the opposite map edge or just some less remote sniper nest.

Why the gently caress would you reduce the panzerfaust damage further

At least the explosive damage prone reduction was tweaked because lol at ever being able to kill infantrymen behind obstacles

I've never used the panzerfaust after unlocking the PIAT. The PIAT is hilarious to use as anti-infantry.

yeah loool a lot of the other notes look like they really own, great job for once, DICE!

so last night, me Revo and Streyr ended up the last of a goongroup as our server pop dwindled to 4 v 7 with us on the losing end on Aerodrome Conquest at about 12:15am Eastern.

the 7 side started to tryhard stunt on us rolling out tanks and spawncamping so we stuck around out of spite. it was 180-600 when we 6-capped them, and we ran out of time at like 2am to a draw at about 90-50 lmao

Most of us are on after 6pm Central Standard. We're pretty evenly mixed between East coast, Midwest, and West coast.

I'm fairly certain we're friends, but my GT is Beastie Bomber. I won't be around tonight, but if you see me playing, add anyone else in that party.

Not even sure why there’s an option to remove it in the upgrade tree. There’s a few crap options across the vehicles but that’s probably the most pointless one.

  • Increased the damage for the Mk VI Revolver. Two-hit kill range is now 12 m
    (previously 7 m), three-hit kill range is 30 m (previously 12 m), four-hit kill range is 50
    m (previously 30 m). Minimum damage is now 22 instead of 15. Damage dropped too
    steeply for the rate of fire and magazine capacity of this weapon.

I can’t wait to unlock the Webley but is it anywhere near as fun as the No.3?

Also breakthrough games for attackers are about to get much better with squad reinforcements getting buffed with call in artillery and smoke rounds. Imagine like 4 squad leaders getting together and coordinating layered smoke and HE. Probably won’t ever happen but drat, the possibilities.

Weekends mostly. Battlefield 1 being the boring suckfest it was killed my BF habit so I don't play during the week anymore. BF5 has revived some desire, but it's still not BF4 levels of quality.

They sorta buffed the M1907 so that's exciting. Don't know why they increased recoil at range, it was already plenty outshot by the Gewehr and every other single shot variant.

PF nerf is good, would have preferred splash damage/speed buff for the tanks over the PF nerf. Anything that's not a light tank is still pretty useless.

The M1907 recoil nerf makes sense after learning to tap fire that sucker. Its absurdly accurate at range if you shoot in 2-3 round bursts. Far too controllable considering its strength as a close range weapon. I just hope it's not too terrible at range after the patch.

Just get your hammer out and run around an objective looking for gun ghosts. Sometimes you have to build a platform first before the ghost shows up.

I love the M1907 with extended mags (the next patch makes the M1907 have extended mags by default fyi) and the Selbstlader m1916 which is a slow firing semi auto rifle that has a huge magazine and a 3 hit kill at any range. For support I pretty much only use the Bren. Pop a 3x on that sucker and go to town.

Find a stationary gun, blow it up (I found throwing down tank mines and shooting them works best), and now you have a stationary gun that needs rebuilt.

The two villages on Fjell are full of them, but only support players can build stationary weapons. Can also build AT and AA guns. I dunno man I did it in like, two rounds I think? Also just find one then have a buddy with c4 blow it up and rebuild it

On top of the other like eleventy comments up there you can also look for a green sheet of metal on the ground, looks like the armor plate in front of it when it's set up. You can find a few at the B flag on Hamada and there's one near whichever point is the house by the creek on Arras with a bunch of tall trees around it, not the one with the stone bridge.
