I just want to say the MG15 n.a low weight with AA sights is fun as hell to use.

Thanks to this weekend's double XP, and using my own boosts, AND completing the assault, medic and support missions (whatever they're called, they're 50k apiece) I leveled up twice this weekend and unlocked a bunch of the new weapons. Already have one service star with the Federov, too.

The SMG 08/18 factory is a better hellreigel IMO

edit: I felt bad about this, but in my defense it was not intentional

Apparently when you play as the communists, the "Russian kit" doesn't count. I need 25 kills with the Russian sniper kit, and I had to switch teams to get them. I was using the Mosin-Nagant infantry.

How that thing hasn’t been nerfed yet is beyond me. But yet grenades have been nerfed to almost complete uselessness. :dice:

I still can''t believe they buffed it originally. It used to be 60/60 so yeah it was good but you'd run out of ammo immediately with it. Right now there's really no reason to not use it other than "it's the loving Hellriegel, I'm better than that." Fewer guns are so all-around good at killing lots of people quickly.

How to not play well and still get kills, by IHeartJamesMay:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JUc5nyxF99U

Step 1: Miss out on killing a tank by seconds.
Step 2: Throw a grenade at a guy, but hit the wall in front of you so it bounces back at you. Run away and laugh as the grenade kills someone that was coming to melee you.
Step 3: Kill a guy by doing a single point of damage to him.
Step 4: Swing with a hatchet, don't get the kill.
Step 5: Somehow avoid getting killed by the hatchetted dude, swing again and get him this time.
Step 6: Kill another dude by doing ten points of damage.
Step 7: Finally get what has been coming for you this entire time, the sweet embrace of death.

Also, the Federov is a stupidly good gun.

I finally got a cheap headset and I have heard a total of one person talking. It's kinda great. I just leave the mic off so nobody thinks I have an extreme case of tourette's.

Cheap headset? Is it for PS4? Hook a brother up with the details.
Most of the initial guns are pretty drat good. I like the Seibslater 1916 for medic as an early unlock since it has a big magazine and is a three shot kill at all ranges.

Pretty sure it's this one but I can check when I get home. Mine's camo. Probably not the greatest but it seems to work fine for me.

Passchendale is basically the ruined part of St. Quinten Scar, spread across the whole map

River Somme is basically the nice part of St Quinten Scar with a bunch of trenches

Yeah I always thought it was pretty straightforward. More flags = more ticket bleed, more kills = more ticket bleed. :shrug:

I suggest everyone play a few rounds of BF1 and remember how much of a better game it is than BFV.

I got BFV for Christmas. I like it, but I went back to BF1 and enjoy it more. It just feels better. Maybe it's because it's still more familiar to me, maybe it's because after 500 hours I have my weapons pretty dialed in, maybe it's because I have always loved WW1 (my great-grandfather fought in it). I'm sure V will grow on me but so far I agree with this man.

I wish the overall look was a bit more consistently WW2 (I’m sure this will improve over time) and had swastikas but it’s not the biggest deal. The game is fun enough that none of that stands out noticeably when you’re in the action.

I get where this is coming from. I thought BF1 'felt' very WW1-ish but BFV so far just feels off so far. Like maybe too clean or something. It's hard to put my finger on.

Also they should have actual nazis and stuff but make them lose every game every time.

There isn’t enough of the level changing destruction, like Shanghai, for my taste. It sucks that Devastation is pre-destroyed, that would be a sweet nap to just turn into rubble over the course of a conquest match.

I think I've said it before but my all-time favorite Battlefield map is White Pass from Bad Company 2. A quaint village, pristine at the beginning, but every house and building (except for the warehouse at A) can be completely loving leveled. By the end of the map you could always tell where the fighting was because there'd be no houses left in that area.

I’ve been playing BF1 the last few days and it’s still really goddamn fun. I went like 26-10 on Argonne and yeah, game good

Yeah V never really clicked with me. It never felt like WW2 the way 1 felt like WW1. I think I only made it to level 20? in V but hit 150 so long ago in 1 that I'm pretty sure I'd be over 200 if they still counted.

I still play 1 regularly on PS4 and there's full servers regularly, at least conquest/original maps and usually operations. Anything beyond that is sketchy though.
