Yossarian is back, in pog form! Haven't played any BF since we was chuckin wookieballs and camping carriers in BF3. Good to see some familiar faces here, I won't have much time to play vidjas until the new year. But PS4 players hit me up at Gunshow_Poophole. I'll check out the community too.

Patrol boat visibility is loving atrocious but so far the firepower is on par with BC2 Vietnam (blast from teh past). Maybe the dastardly Turks just didn't have the right firepower to take me out but my buddy stranded me by dying and I mowed down 6 or 7 infantrymen before a plane strafed me to death.Knightmare posted:

Gynecolojustice posted:So it turns out that my autoaim was on, not off, and I just do really suck. Got 4 kills on Fao Fortress though. Maybe I need to stop playing medic and just start sniping. I wouldn't expect to suck at aiming any less as a sniper. The nice thing about having 32 mans on your team these days is that you make much less difference as an individual so whatever snipe away! *cue 10 people thinking the exact same thing, teams might as well be 16 again*

PyrE posted:These games are way more fun when played in groups, wish I still knew my bad company 2 group. Add me on psn irlcyberbully and join the battlegoons community Yeah I'm finding that with the bigger player count it's almost impossible to effect any sort of progress without at least two decent pubbies in a squad with me working together. I'm bc2 you could Rambo a room enclosed mcom pretty well considering there'd be maybe 3 or 4 guys from the other team at any given time. Now when I slip past the front line to circle around behind the deepest flag, there's inevitably 8 fuckin dudes on my rear end as soon as it starts capping. (and not in the way I'd prefer 8 dudes in my rear end right Dantes haw haw)

So kind of an exploit that you can camp the poo poo out of the boat spawn on suez with your own boat and just rack up thousands of points... I worked through a full game of just killin boats and random players who would spawn to go after the dreadnought in them.

Blind Rasputin posted:This game is the best multiplayer experience right now. It is also the worst menu and UI experience right now. Like, why are the post-game menus so slow I feel like I'm playing on a 386. The lack of customization outside the game is so absurd it hurts. And who's idea was it to remove all the cool unlockables from the BF4 days, where after a match you'd see that progress bar tick forward and like a badass grenade launcher or something would drop on the screen as an unlock. There's none of that, the progress screen is useless and to be fair once you hit level 3 on each class progress all together seems useless. It really is hilarious that a post-game table of numbers makes a goddamn 8th gen console chug like a Commodore. What the hell, and why have flashy menus at all if you can't DO anything in them.

Blind Rasputin posted:Yes, while I have yet had a chance to play with goons in a squad, this game is masterful at creating the most insane recordible moments. Like you can die, get a good idea, spawn as say assault, and go full bananas with explosives on a building or tank and it usually ends up working in hilarious ways. I just love it. the house off to the side of Charlie on Argonne Forest is the best wacky explosive building honeypot. People just default to using it as a waypoint to transition to or from the Bravo trenches and nobody expects a the (un)controlled demolition I've carefully laid out.

swordfish duelist posted:Alternatively, follow your squad drop ammo and use a BAR trench or Benet storm and enjoy your heavy assault rifle. Yeah also fire in 10-15 round bursts, the weird "accuracy increases as you fire" mechanic will help out a lot. I find if I try to conserve ammo I'm popping off 4 rounds and pulling a pulp fiction. The Benet is quick to reload and you carry your own ammo resupply with you so just hammer dat reload button.

Holy poo poo the squad/party system on PS4 is broken as hell. Sorry I spent like 45 minutes bitching about how to join up tonight um... I am still unclear as to what the problem was. At least we could laugh about it. Also the party thing listed anyone who wasn't actually on my friends list as "offline". Whatever, next time.

My beef with spotting is not so much the cooldown but the fact that I have to take my finger off the trigger to do it. It's a subtle change from BF3 (yeah I skipped 4 what of it) but it's hugely impactful to not just be able to mash my left thumb into the select button instead of moving a finger. It also drives home the idea that I am physically electing to SPOT the mans I have my crosshairs covering, rather than just loving SHOOTING the mans.

Nija posted:R1 is spot... R2 is the trigger. Leftover habit from ps3 control mainly. R1 was Fire for my last thousands of hours of shootmans on consoles. I have to consciously force my index onto the bumper and middle onto the trigger. Also (for my hands I guess) no controller has done triggers right since xbox360 and although the dualshock 4 is better than the 3 it is still not very good.

How does the game decide whether K bullets / rocket gun rockets will actually gently caress something up or not? Are tanks actually modeled out that precisely with regards to where armor is weak? I feel like I'm always popping poo poo for 5 damage or 12 damage or whatever with any long-distance explosive. Which I guess could also be the point, but come on. Rocket gun!

I'm a big proponent of the pouches for the afford mobility and sheer healing speed but all of my RL friends are DIEHARD crate fans. I just don't see it -- but I'm welcome to be proven wrong. Whatever works best I was unaware that the pouch heals faster, which could change my mind. But I mean functionally if crate heals multiple people and reserves my use of Buttons for Other Purposes then the crate is way better. Not that I dissect my play in this way in reality, but I cannot be firing bullets for the ~1.5 second throw-a-pouch animation and even though I am straight up terrible at shooting, limiting my ability to spray n pray makes me anxious! just... put out another crate if you need to get different people health?
