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

The AT rocket gun needs to be removed, there are plenty of other AT options & I don't see why every soldier should be able to carry a recoilless rifle up his ass. When you get cornered by two assault troopers with AT grenades and rocket rifles no amount of skill can save you and that's really frustrating. Even worse when there's 6 of them instead of 2 and you manage to dodge half of it but still die because of the incessant grenade/rocket spam.

How rare are legendaries? My first crate and I got a golden BAR

Get in car. Car turns into a phantom and disappears. Bombs drop on all of us. Fucking Casper.

Also, I cant purchase any new equipment on the website. I click on my primary, and it just doesnt do anything.

I really want to justify buying this game. I have 76 hours on Battlefield 4. The price is just a bit steep. Is it that much of an improvement over Battlefield 4?

[QUOTE=DeVotchKa;51243366]Even more AT options in this than in 4 and yet people still can't seem to take down tanks.[/QUOTE] Better than people not fucking shooting the [I]massive fucking blimps[/I] that destroy everything.

[QUOTE=Glitchman;51244055]How rare are legendaries? My first crate and I got a golden BAR[/QUOTE] I haven't gotten a single one but I know people who have gotten a bunch. also jesus my ping keeps spiking and I don't know why.

[QUOTE=Araknid;51243850]how to get lodsapoints as assault? I want that all class revolver.[/QUOTE] AT Rocket Gun, hammer anything you can see and try to keep resupplied. Throw gas into an area, but your gasmask on, and hose down the people too panicky to put their masks on. Not huge point generators but pretty effective from my 5 hours of play.

I wonder if DICE will add a Bolt Action only custom game mode at some point.

Do you think they're adding additional war stories with each DLC? It seems like it'd take a lot of work, but I'm looking at expansion pack release dates for BF1 compared to previous titles Both BF3 and BF4. 3 and 4 both had their first expansions released in December. For BF1 we're getting a free map later this year but no full blown DLC, with the first big one coming out next March. I'm wondering if the longer development time means their planning on adding more single player as well.

The dreadnaught needs to be nerfed. Multiple times now everytime it's spawned the enemy team have recovered from having less than half of our tickets. Doesn't help there's no practical way to destroy them without going on 50 suicidal missions on some maps.

They need to just remove the AA gun from it or not allow it to be aimed down because the AA gun destroys torpedo boats in seconds

Having a hard time looking for information on the audio settings, I'm using a decent pair of stereo headphones, so just setting to 'stereo' and 'headphones' is the best right? War tapes apparently blows up all the sounds so that there's no variation and there's no Hi-Fi option like in the last games which I would have chosen

I mostly play scout but I purely use rifles with iron sights, I havent even touched any of the scoped variants and Im not really interested in them at all. It somewhat annoys me when people on my team say shit like "All scouts are bad, what a worthless class" meanwhile Im top of the scoreboard because I'm pushing objectives, using my flaregun to weed out attackers/defenders on points, racking up kills, and harassing tanks with K-bullets, not allowing them to heal while the assaults on my team blow them up. The issue is just people who dont know who to play properly and just want long range headshots.

[QUOTE=Glitchman;51244055]How rare are legendaries? My first crate and I got a golden BAR[/QUOTE] I have the C96 and Mondragon one already.

I got the BAR one pretty early but it looks gaudy as fuck so I just scrapped it. I want the Mondragon one though.

[QUOTE=Grenadiac;51244375]They need to just remove the AA gun from it or not allow it to be aimed down because the AA gun destroys torpedo boats in seconds[/QUOTE] Remove it and replace it with an HMG. Regarding behemoths in general I wonder if DICE really even played this game because on pretty much every map they are no fun to play against. Holding a team at the first two points on Operations then being rolled the next game because they have mobile doom fortresses with no real counter is fucking shitty.

Where do i find people to play with? I just want some people to do the TEAMWORK with

[QUOTE=Raidyr;51244388]On the other hand every time I see someone get into a light tank they routinely go on some absurd KDR.[/QUOTE] The only time I see light tanks successfully juggernauting now that they've fixed the howitzer tank's turret is when the enemy team is oblivious to it and ignores it. With the rocket gun in play, no amount of skill can save you from a player that's decided to kill you, let alone a halfway coordinated group.

I hate it when the game runs really well and then suddenly goes into hyper stutter mode.

Having the scope be the default loadout has everybody learning the class as a sniper class when it's so much more. If iron sights were the default loadout then they would see the class as more about having a specific weapon type and spotting utility rather than just being "the sniper class."

AAAnnd the matchmaking doesnt work at all now... perfect

It does like 16 damage per hit on the landship and heavy tank, and doesnt even carry enough ammo to kill a tank from 100% health without a resupply. I have no problen dealing with them in the A7V
