Is this game going to be worth the premium membership? I pre-ordered premium BF4 without hesitating and don't regret it (aside from  nerfing all the fun stuff). Then I pre-ordered BFH and absolutely regret it.For me it's going to come down to how much fun can be had loving with

drat it I just want to slay some krauts like my great grandfathers before me. Although as I recall both bf4 and bfh had server problems in the early days. Glad to see still refuses to learn from their mistakes. E: In fact, IIRC correctly the hardline beta had connection problems, promised it would be fixed on release day, and had the same problems on release day, for like a week. Then the Division developers said they were postponing release because they didn't want to be like DICE  and disappoint fans.

Earwicker posted:my ps4 experience is that the game is good during the fleeting momenets when i can actually get on a server and its not lagged to poo poo. It takes them like a year after launch to make the game relatively playable and fair, but it's fun as hell for those 6-9 months before they nerf the fun stuff. OTOH, if it's anything like BFH, if they only listen to the 'community' on reddit it'll be borderline unplayable the whole time and snipers will be untouchable god-kings. For example, in BF4, they made it so you couldn't shoot UCAVs into bases anymore after enough basecamping sniper babbies complained. and the anti-tank mines used to do a ton of damage, until tanklords complained and they nerfed the damage, plus gave the mines a bright red flashing light on night maps because scanning the area around you for danger is too much to ask. Same with C4, it has to basically be touching the target to do full damage. Meanwhile, there are still spots on certain maps where k/d whores can glitch into the landscape for a one-way bullet screen that still haven't been fixed.

This tracked medal business is for the birds. E; that you have to specify which medal you're after, then do the steps in order is ridiculous. 8 kills in a row with the SMG seems insane to me; the best i could do was 11, but that included using mines to fry a fully loaded heavy tank, then heaving a tank grenade perfectly through a window to nail like 4 snipers at once. Also it seems they've gotten rid of the mini map showing you where enemies are firing. So good luck because pubbies never use the spot button

quote:Players that have played the "Battlefield 1" Beta also said that the tanks in the game is almost impossible to defeat because of its new feature that the armor can be repaired while inside the tank, and having a tank can bring huge advantage to the team. So, the players suggest that there will be tank nerfs needed to bring fairness for all the players. Definitely not a period-correct advantage  You better believe teamwork isn't on the list of things for players to consider before nerfing the tanks.Also there are probably going to be mortars for the support class so we'll have a way to gently caress up snipers. That was the one thing i hated about bfh, snipers as unkillable god-kings.

Yeah this is happening to me too. The lack of spotting is killing me. I'm also getting one shotted from far away by the starting assault gun, when I know I only do like 13 damage at the same distance. I swear bf4 had the same issue though. At least there's no Locker/metro super grind map... yet.

I'm trying to get the squad medal, and one of the things is squad suppression assist. I'm using the Extra Supression machine gun, getting Squad Suppression assist on the screen, and yet it's not counting towards the medal. Also what happened to assignments?

Am I crazy or is there no ammo to be found anywhere in the single player? Also, what happened to spotting? I can spot someone but they don't turn up on the mini map. But they do if they're spotted by the flare gun. but not on the screen.

You can stand there for 3 minutes mashing the GIVE AMMO button, I know a big flashing GIVE AMMO icon pops up on their screen, but no, never even crosses their mind to press one button. Just last night, before I joined the goon murder group, a pubby was on mic yelling at me to drop ammo. Like he ignored the assault emblem over my mans, assault emblem next to my name in the squad, the lack of a prompt to ask for ammo, everything. I just don't get how pubbies are that dumb. Then I switched teams and murked him like 7 times

It's kind of horseshit that once again doesn't give much of an option to gently caress with snipers, and again gives them the tools to just sit on the edge of the map potshotting, contributing nothing. At least give some range to the mortar, 80m is bullshit.

DID WE JUST BECOME BEST FRIENDS?  My medal tracking screen hasn't changed since the week after release, is it because I've been in game sessions when the change is supposed to happen?

Beastie posted:Patch Wishlist: I kind of like internal repair, it forces tanklords to leave the 'hot' areas to repair, but on the other hand it's way harder to steal a tank. They need to make the limpet do way more damage, and buff the repair tool for destroying enemy vehicles. Basically make support way more dangerous.

Finger Prince posted:Anyone else ever get the impression that everyone else's gun is way more powerful than the gun you've got? Like, bad mans are all "that sure is a nice LMG you're unloading into my chest, but check this out: *flicks cigarette in your face*" *dies* I noticed it too. Like even assault vs. assault at medium range, I could spray all day with the default gun and get like 1-2 hit markers, but the other mans with the same gun can kill me in one 3-4 shot burst. Also, what counts as an explosive for that one medal? I have to get 5 in a life, and I'm mainly hoping I can get a fully loaded heavy tank with a trio of mines, rather than spamming grenades.

Auxiliary Treats posted:https://gfycat.com/CreepyTheseHyrax I have no idea how to do that. Grizzled Patriarch posted:I hope they eventually add some basic ribbons to the game, just on the off chance that extra points for doing heals / revives / resupplies in a round might actually get dumbass pubbies to support their teammates once in a while. Finding a good squad just makes the game infinitely more fun. Yeah, all the assignments from BF4 were tedious but at least forced you to try different things. And taking ammo/health from mans by force was amazing in the beta, I wish they kept that, or having to call for a revive before getting one. Also for everyone struggling with "get X kills in a life" medals, if you die but get revived your X/5 count doesn't reset, so get a medical friend to keep you alive.

I'd prefer the limpets to be proximity based, rather than time. has turned it's back on the jihad style of enemy tank management, and those sidecar motorcycles are begging for it.

Finger Prince posted:I had extremely bad lag this morning on the PS4. Like a full 1-2 seconds at times. The worst example was running past a thrown anti tank grenade, blasting two dudes in the face with the 10-A Hunter, no hit markers, watching them return enough fire to kill me twice, then mysteriously dying to the anti tank grenade 10+ yards behind me that I heard go off 2 seconds prior. Lol. Someone sent me hate mail because I blew up his tank, then got him with a grenade, then shot, then stabbed him in a round. He's very mad I have a lag switch on my controller; i don't know what that means, for the first time I didn't have any of the connection warnings on my screen. Once you learn how to use the equipment, a Support guy with a limpet and a couple of assault bros are basically unstoppable.

Popete posted:Yeah it's kind of disappointing how they have a 8 inch splash range now. It's still fun, but idk why they would nerf it to begin with. because 's community feedback page is on reddit, and it's 100% snipers who never leave the spawn bellyaching about literally every anti-sniper tool in the game.Could be a new record for nerfing a useful tool. It's not as if mortars were used heavily in the Great War in order to dislodge dug-in troops or anything  Range is barely 80 yards  Also, on Sinai, the first thing to do is use the field gun at D and shoot the land bridge to the sniper nest above B.

Snak posted:Jesus Christ. What even is a "Spot Assist"? I thought from how Suppression Assists worked, it would be when you spotted an enemy and then a teammate killed them. But that's apparently a "Spot Bonus". I think you can only throw 2 ammo/medic bags at a time, or have 2 active at a time. It's great for resupplying a squad of like 3-5 bros, but if you get into a locker-style choke point it's really inefficient, and the supply box works better. I also think they nerfed the supply bags to not be an instant 100% resupply. I was playing as assault, used up all my mines and monster grenades, and the resupply bag gave me 2 mines and 1 grenade, plus ammo.

Finger Prince posted:Sure, you never know. I was just surprised to actually win as the Americans not once but twice, and evidently not even with that amazing a team since we got killed the next round both times. sometimes they do, sometimes they don't. I think the key is to put them in high traffic areas, but not like obviously in the middle of the road or somewhere an errant grenade could set them off. I put some down on Grappa on that lowest road next to C and forgot about it. Later in the game I stole a tank and drove off with a heavy tank right behind me. I think he was so focused on trying to take down my stolen tank he didn't wonder why i was driving on this random footpath and not through point C that we controlled. Anyway he chased me over the hill and BOOM

The grenades do almost no damage, and they don't explode on impact, so playrs just run over them and stab you. Spray them in choke points, like the hallway outside C on ballroom. I got the 5-explosive-kills-in-a-life medal that way.

mellowjournalism posted:this is a great idea Lol yeah, only listens to feedback from reddit snipers, because they are the loudest, most thin skinned babies. There was a solid month right after release where the mortar was 1. accurate and 2. did damage. And then the redditors complained, lo and behold, the only really effective anti-sniper weapon is now useless. You would think the solution to getting mortared constantly would be 'find a new place to hide,' but it's actually complain to dice until they make the mortar mostly ineffective.I remember a furor on bf4 reddit. Did dice accidentally email their browsing history to their mothers? No, they adjusted the 100% damage 100% accurate pubby cannon sniper rifle to reload .4 seconds slower. red19fire fucked around with this message at 00:44 on Dec 6, 2016 |
