This spreadsheet was in the BF4 thread. You might have to import these into Battlelog and hope they transfer to the BF1 companion since I doubt they've been updated with the new emblem editor.

My old one transferred over to BF1 without me doing anything.

Yeah, anything that you had previously in Battlelog should have been available to use. Some of the shapes in the new editor are slightly different so I have 1 or 2 that don't show up in the companion app. The codes in the spreadsheet are from the old one so they only work in Battlelog.

E: There's an easy workaround if an emblem doesn't show up in the new app. Equip it through Battlelog and it should carry over.

What's the best way to level up the scout? I want to use that pickaxe melee weapon but it takes forever and laying back and missing most of my shots isn't that fun.

I really like the Gewehr 95 infantry if you would rather play a more forward scout role.

I'll need to become your understudy beastie because flying isn't clicking for me yet. I've got a feeling it'll be easy kills once it does but for now it's just frustrating

DICE really needs to bring back the test range. I tried playing with the control schemes in the campaign missions since my first time flying was a nightmare and I still don't feel super comfortable with it.

are there limits to the number of times you can be revived in one life?

I don't think so, just as long as you don't die too quickly after the revive. Not really sure what the timer is for being revivable again.

Joining a pubby squad and immediately replacing the squad leader is the best.

I am never gonna get this. Medals expiring is the lamest thing. I have lost 2 medals that I was 90% done with because I had to like, go do life. I'm gonna get this loving medal if I have to play for the next 48 hours straight.

edit: oh. Um, apparently, I got it? That's anticlimactic. I bet I actually got it that time I described above and didn't realize it.

Maybe I'm remembering wrong but I've had a medal pop up again after I made progress on it in a previous week and I was still on the same stage.

With the way they are now, medals should just be a little bonus thing rather than something you work towards. It's a toss up whether things will track or not right now.

Another question, do spot flares work/do anything in hardcore?

I asked the same thing last night. It sounded like it was making the score popup for spot assists but I wasn't paying attention to the scoreboard. You can still use them to set people on fire though.

I'm pretty sure the zeroing distance only affects guns with scopes on them. The carbine or infantry versions say in the description that they're zeroed for a certain distance.

When you swap to K bullets, your ammo counter will change since you only load one a time. If you aren't sure, hitting triangle will switch back to normal bullets if you have K bullets loaded.

The rent-a-server program says it's a 'beta' when you go to that page. Right now it's basically a place for you to play using rules that you want and nothing else. The fact that they don't allow admin functions is the biggest red flag for me.

E: yeah, nowhere to upload banners either. The Battlelog website handled everything for BF4 and this seems like everything is done through your console.

How do I get into PS4krew for this? Is there a PSN community? My play times are probably a bit iffy (Euro and I have a 3m/o daughter) but I still have 18h in since Black Friday. My win % is 37% and I swear it's not /only/ my fault. I'm only playing with pubbies and I just keep rage-gaming. I never actually quit but I can get worked up from being steamrolled and I'm getting fed up with it. Shouldn't the odds of winning in random games with pubbies be more like 50%?

There's a pretty regular EU group that plays most days. Not sure how often he checks the thread but CJSeedge on PSN is a guy you should add.

I saved a video on PS4, of something that happened at the very end of the map, by hitting the screenshot button. But in the preview thing it seemed to have a video of the entire round, all 25 minutes. I just backed out because the next round was going to start but is that normal? Do I need to export that off the PS4 then edit it down? It is a huge file and I really only wanted like the last minute or less.

In addition to what Snak posted about changing the recording length, there's also a built in trim function. Select the clip from your gallery and press options to trim it down.

OK, I feel like my class rank ups are going excruciatingly slowly. I hit rank 10 medic pretty quickly, but have been struggling with the other classes. Even Support, which now has the most kills of any of classes and that I am resupplying constantly is going so slowly, I'm only at rank 6 and am level 52. I play the objective, consistently score decently... am I missing something?

They have different amounts of xp needed for ranks. Scout is 30k per rank, medic 45k, and assault and support are 50k (Assault might actually be 55k, I can't remember for sure.) If you go to each class in the soldier screen the progress bar will tell you how much you need to rank up.
