I’ve been trying out new Assault Class guns and I am liking the hell out of the STG 44, especially after maxing out the part of the tree that reduces the recoil even more in both directions. The dot sight is also very erotic.

I got the gun from the first week of the Tides of War thingy. My love affair with squad conquest, which I had been enjoying, quickly soured when I realised it was only 3 maps. Like holy poo poo, I'm one of the few people calling this mode fun and good, but 3 maps on rotation is nowhere near enough. I unlocked the MP40 and instantly felt like “that's my gun”. Being an iconic weapon, and getting a little 3 man killstreak the first time I ever touched the trigger was delightful. Why are the weapon skins so poo poo? Like, seriously? The full chrome sets look like the fancy BF1 skins, a game where almost all the skins were good, but in BFV most of the skins are bad. I hate the whole mix and match aspect to it. Oh I levelled up and now I can paint one part of my gun like a piece of poo poo. Thanks Dice.

I unlocked the MAS44 today and I'm struggling to think of why anyone would use it over what assault already has. It feels similar to the ag42, which I didnt like at all. Assault has a plethora of good weapons so it feels like a waste to have another gun given to the class that needs the least work. I do think medic is way better than people give credit now. The ZK is great for most engagements and having 5 smokes makes it incredible easy to attack points or revive teammates. Since the patch I've gone from it being my worst class to my best.

I get the hate for squad conquest and I'd never elect to play it again but we had a spectacular time fuckin around the other day Five of us making up the team (and an occasional spy getting displaced to the enemy thanks Pete) made for a lot of fun coordinating defense of points

I dont mind squad conquest at all, especially when you have a good team. I think I mostly just like the smaller maps, makes it more manageable

What do you guys run as your AA tank load outs? I got the triple 20mm for the valentine, and doesn't seem to do much. Seems like AA tanks are mainly for harassing planes. I can never do more than like 35 damage per pass, and I'm either leading too much or not enough.

Yeah, I just use the German AA to drive through walls and shout "HELLO!" at infantry hiding behind said walls. They hate it when you do that, by the way. Boy oh boy do they hate that.

Any details on tomorrow's update? Also, I am absolutely in love with the ZK-383. With full upgrades down the right side, it's an absolute laser beast with 40-round mags so I can essentially fire forever. Its hipfire isn't quite as good as the Sten, but then again, what is?

For the AA Valentine, I think it’s the other (Left?) side of the specialization tree that gives you case ammunition, which is very effective against infantry. Usually one or two hits at anything other than long range will kill a target. The standard 40mm cannon is okay against troops, usually taking three or four near hits to kill someone, and can definitely hurt other vehicles if you get the drop on them. It also helps that you get such a huge load of ammo (200 regular shells plus 40 case), so you can really do some damage. On maps or modes, Aerodrome on Breakthrough being the first that comes to my mind, it can ruin the other team if used properly. Aside from that, AA is kinda hosed in an actual anti-aircraft role, but the next patch is supposed to fix that. I can’t say if the triple-barrel 20mm is any good, as I’ve never used and honestly can’t recall ever seeing it used so far.

Patch notes look great overall. Stug is probably going to suck though. The slow vehicle speed and turret rotation is the biggest tank weaknesses, against infantry and other tanks, and this is gonna be slow with no turret.

mmmm, from my WOT days the two STUGs once upgraded had really good traverse and very very very nimble and an awesome low profile, so you can prone down and just be a dick pretty effectively but like all german tanks, the reverse is ATROCIOUS, i'm glad they nailed that with the tiger so it's hopefully like the inverse of the Brit "Gun Carrier"

Hope you’re right. The way tanks are currently balanced I don’t like running anything other than the light tanks and so I’m only looking forward to more light tanks and AFVs. I hope they change because there are a lot of medium tanks I’d like to see added eventually.

Unless you’re sitting back or are supported by minimum one full squad of infantry, the heavy tanks are killed too easily.

AA tank exists to get destroyed by light tanks. Seriously, there's nothing useful it does that the light tank with 20mm doesn't do better, and with better speed and a smaller profile. I don't give a poo poo about planes, they're pretty much neutered in this game anyway.

Well I finally finished the tides of war assigment and got my gun. Seems pretty decent, has some potential for upgrades. But mainly thank gently caress I don't need to play squad conquest again. Arras is the only decent map of the massive 3 in rotation, and Rotterdam is so bad it cancels it out. Also I've got the revolver unlocked now and hell yeah that's an awesome secondary. Hell it's practically a primary for support with a MMG.

The revolver has been the most bipolar sidearm in the game. It was awesome at launch, dogshit after they nerfed it, now it owns again.

They're going to include these huge soviet tanks from Command & Conquer that would make the Char 2C from BF1 tiny. (this is a joke but would be funny)

I'd rather play five straight weeks of Squad Conquest-focused games like last week's Tides of War than any more Breakthrough. It's just such a meat grinder, and the games are so long. Good luck playing medic on any of the enormous maps with Assaults, Recons, and prone Supports sniping you from every single direction. Bah, I say.

Breakthrough is bad. It plays like they tried to combine the scale of Conquest with the focus of Rush or Frontlines and failed because the two are incompatible. It's also seems biased to the defenders. Three rounds now and I haven't seen the attacking team take the first sector.
