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

[t]http://i.imgur.com/4hVVypd.png[/t] Battlefield pls. Anyone know how to stop this? I think it only happens when I alt tab (borderless or not, doesn't matter), or maybe it's just a coincidence. My card doesn't crash or anything, just the game.

[QUOTE=BusterBluth;51244146]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] It's pretty cheap on GMG.

Are you not supposed to see your own spots with the flare gun?

Anyone played 64 player conquest on the playstation 4? Does your framerate drop to the low 20's on some maps? I want to know if it's this particular console or if it's all PS4's. 64 player is completely unplayable on my PS4 Like, not a matter of opinion unplayable, it performs SO bad that it is absolutely unplayable

pick support use BAR wear gas mask at all times spam gas grenades everywhere top frag every single game edit: pro mlg strat do not steal

[t]http://i.imgur.com/AW4r3DS.png[/t] ptfo? I just ran around healing and reviving.

I got the Order of the Sniper's Guard medal this morning. That shit is fucking harder than it looks. 5 Headshots in one game, 3 in one life, and the easy no effort needed part: Kill 10 scouts with bolt actions

Anyone else having insane packet loss/rubberbanding? Every 1-2 minutes I get a second long network stutter, and then I teleport back to where I was before it started

Either the bar needs a nerf, or the other lmgs need to be brought up.

So I'm running into performance problems with this is game. I'm at high graphical settings and the game will drop from 60 to 55 frames per second normally with drops down to 50 frames per second. I changed all the settings to medium but the same thing happens. Anyone know what this problem is and how to fix it? I have a GTX 970, an i5-3570K, and 16 gigs of ram.

anyone want to squad up on PC?

How often are battlepacks supposed to drop? I've been top 7 three operations in a row and haven't gotten shit, and played like 10 total (full) operations.

[QUOTE=Rent-a-BoxHouse;51244832]Anyone else having insane packet loss/rubberbanding? Every 1-2 minutes I get a second long network stutter, and then I teleport back to where I was before it started[/QUOTE] I'm having the same issue. Nearly unplayable :(

[QUOTE=codemaster85;51244889]Either the bar needs a nerf, or the other lmgs need to be brought up.[/QUOTE] The Madsen is just as good as the BAR if not better, imo. Use the Trench or Storm variants. Both have very low recoil and the trench version can hipfire people out to medium ranges. The Lewis gun is pretty bad though. It just does so little damage to go along with its slow RoF. I havent used the other 3 at all, though I just got the rank 10 one so Im going to try it out soon.

[QUOTE=Masamune;51244954]How often are battlepacks supposed to drop? I've been top 7 three operations in a row and haven't gotten shit, and played like 10 total (full) operations.[/QUOTE] random as fuck at the end of rounds or buying them with precious scrap

I watched some guy who did nothing for 3 rounds straight (0 kills, 0 deaths, like 100 score if any) get battlepacks at the end of all 3 rounds while I was between #8 and #4 each round and got nothing. RNG pls go

Not a single battlepack for all 10 levels. Watched GF get two in a row

If anyone here are playing support, I'd suggest leveling all the way up there until you unlock the Huot. It basically shifts your role on the battlefield completely, and allows you to play as an "Assault Support" sort of. Being right in the action, dueling with SMG's and semi-autos and at the same time sticking with your teammates and providing them with ammo is not an issue if you have that gun as a primary. The Huot also has borderline no recoil which makes it flexible at long range too. Imo its even better than the BAR :v:

Shot a quick video to show why the C96 reload animation annoys me after a Euro friend asked me why and I couldn't figure out how to explain it with words to someone with no gun knowledge. Anyone else care and want to see it? Yeah yeah I know it's a game it's just kinda niggling when every other gun is animated correctly. :v:

I'm at level 11 and got about 5 packs from random drops and I don't see what all the fuss is about.

I haven't noticed anything wrong.

DX12 or not. Sad that the full game is having so many issues for me when the goddamn beta was completely fine and flawless. :/

[QUOTE=simkas;51245074]What exactly is wrong with it? I haven't noticed anything wrong.[/QUOTE] The actual ammo goes up faster than the animation puts bullets in. So in the animation you may put 2 rounds back in the magazine, but in actuality you reloaded 4 rounds. It only does this for the pistol and not the carbine for some reason, so my assumption is it must be a bug and not intentional.

[QUOTE=simkas;51245074]What exactly is wrong with it? I haven't noticed anything wrong.[/QUOTE] It's not possible to open the bolt on it manually in real life without the follower in the magazine popping out all the remaining live rounds in the magazine, making you unable to reload it properly if the magazine isn't empty. EDIT: And I guess what Wulfram said is also an error :v:

it shouldn't be intentional though because you'd think they'd have done that for the revolvers that only have a loading gate because that take like a full 30 seconds to reload from empty.
