Battlefield Franchise Megathread V2 - 'The Future of Warfare Is in the Past' Edition - Games

Interesting, that was not something I knew. Thanks for the info!

[QUOTE=StrykerE;51118198]The Harlem Hellfighters are also in the campaign by the looks of it[/QUOTE] The last few seconds of the trailer (the stand-off) represent just that... I'm hyped for the sp, I just want to see if Dice stuck to the 'historical traits' or decided to go extra 'creative'.

so I just checked the Battlefield website and saw they posted an article on the campaign, I like how this sounds [quote]One key inspiration for single player has been how people think, act, and play in Battlefield 1 multiplayer. Playing Battlefield games, you usually have an objective, a loadout, and a plan. That plan often comes apart as you’re realizing it, and then you have to improvise to make do based on the enemies and vehicles you might be facing. We’re embracing systemic gameplay and the freedom that makes Battlefield the high-agency game that it is. For instance, in the aforementioned Through Mud and Blood there is a part we call The Fog of War. Here you suddenly find yourself in a misty forest. Due to the low visibility you’re moving ahead of your tank on foot, clearing camps of enemies. If you like, you can use explosives to blow up the enemies’ anti-tank weapons, or you can sneak up and do melee attacks. Eventually you’ll come across a relatively large base with field guns you can either destroy to protect your tank – or use against the enemies. You’ll also have the option of taking out an enemy tank crew, which suddenly gives you access to an enemy vehicle that you can seize for the encounter. This is all designed to encourage players to play it their way – just like in multiplayer. [/quote]

[QUOTE=Wulfram;51118297]The last shot of the German squaring off with the French soldier made me feel the same way.[/QUOTE] Looking back at the trailer again, that German at the end looks like the German Sniper from Saving Private Ryan.

[QUOTE=bdd458;51118753]so I just checked the Battlefield website and saw they posted an article on the campaign, I like how this sounds[/QUOTE] Ooh, I like freedom of choice, let's just hope it's not some illusion.

People talk shit about the modern Battlefield titles but honestly after playing BF2142 Revive it just makes me realize how far we've come. BF4 is the height of the series for me.

[QUOTE=bdd458;51118753]so I just checked the Battlefield website and saw they posted an article on the campaign, I like how this sounds[/QUOTE] Sounds like they've learned from BFH's campaign, that one was actually relatively open-ended.

"Shotguns are not OP" [t]http://u.cubeupload.com/Coverop/bf420160928110054.jpg[/t] One shot.

Slugs to the brainpan usually does that. Now, frag rounds is bullshit.

[QUOTE=coverop;51120998]"Shotguns are not OP" One shot.[/QUOTE] Slugs to the head fam That range makes me miss pre-nerf UTS-12 with its amazing upper chest 30m+ hipfire one shots

[QUOTE=coverop;51120998]"Shotguns are not OP" [t]http://u.cubeupload.com/Coverop/bf420160928110054.jpg[/t] One shot.[/QUOTE] What were you even doing? Slugs have such a low muzzle velocity that you'd need to be a sitting duck for someone to manage to lodge one in your domepiece.

[QUOTE=simkas;51120875]Sounds like they've learned from BFH's campaign, that one was actually relatively open-ended.[/QUOTE] I really liked BFH's single player since the levels were so open ended. I wish I was able to finish it but the default Fov was making me nauseous and I had to stop playing after a while.

It seems like playing as a German might be a possibility. [url]https://www.reddit.com/r/battlefield_one/comments/54wkos/it_seems_that_germans_are_playable_in_the/[/url]

[t]http://u.cubeupload.com/Coverop/bf420160929014015.png[/t] Another gun to collection!

How painful was it to get?

What? G36C is good. It used to be awful, but after the huge rebalance a while ago that affected every gun it's now a headshot machine because it's so accurate. It's one of my favorite carbines.

Maybe I should give it another try, but I doubt I'll like it. Automatic firearms with a low TTK are so frustrating to use because you mathematically lose against a bunch of guns if on an equal footing.

I still find it hard to use non faction specific weapons =( It sucks because my favourite guns to use were the L85 and the AUGA3, but now I have some weird block and I find it off-putting to use those. I feel like I have a problem.

Gettin' reeeeaaaaaal sick of the G18. When i get the drop on someone with the M60, which isn't a RoF but has solid damage, and get a few hitmarkers on them for them to 180 and kill me within a second, there's some hoosafudge going on there. Mostly being salty but damn.

[QUOTE=StrawberryClock;51124715]How painful was it to get?[/QUOTE] Well, the last 50 kills were painful to get. Other than that It's a nice Carbine.

Btw. Target detector is great.

[QUOTE=coverop;51126235]Btw. Target detector is great.[/QUOTE] I have FINALLY been able to play on a Last Stand map to unlock the assignment to unlock the target detector. I never played it when it was first released, and now it's like most of the DLC doesn't exist in Australia because it's bloody hard to find a populated server playing those maps. Just suffered through a full round of some huge snow map with like 4 people just so I could tick the 'Play a Last Stand map' box.

Everybody, at least on PS4, mostly plays Vanilla maps or meatgrinders, with a handful of exceptions. You also have to look pretty hard to find any servers that play anything other than CQL, CQS, and TDM, let alone populated ones.
