[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] I joined a game last night in the last 30 seconds and got one. :v:

What's the best medic gun? The last challenge for the order of Hippocrates medal is get 5 kills in one life as medic and since I'm bad at getting kills with all of the medic guns, I just need the most blatantly OP one so I can cheese it.

[QUOTE=NachoPiggy;51245945]Is GPU Memory Restriction turned on in your video settings? If so, try turning it off. Had a similar issue where my GPU usage seems to only hover around 50-70%, but after turning it off it gives a more consistent full usage and better frame rates.[/QUOTE] Yeah, I've turned it off. I think disabling Windows Defender helped as well.

Is there a more convenient way to take screenshots than screenshot.Render in the console? Windows+prt scr doesn't work and shadowplay doesn't want to hook into it, either.

[QUOTE=Grenadiac;51246060]Is there a more convenient way to take screenshots than screenshot.Render in the console? Windows+prt scr doesn't work and shadowplay doesn't want to hook into it, either.[/QUOTE] Does it have borderless windowed mode? Win+PrtScr will work on that.

[QUOTE=TheAdmiester;51246091]Does it have borderless windowed mode? Win+PrtScr will work on that.[/QUOTE] That was it, thanks. I knew I had it working in the beta but I couldn't remember how.

[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] or just give it the same behavior when shooting tanks, the shell impacts and does a small amount of damage but doesnt explode [QUOTE=Lord of Boxes;51245852]What are the downsides to the impact grenade?[/QUOTE] lower blast radius

The Model 8 only has 5 rounds but it does something like 45 damage at close range, and the Mondragon is just fairly good all around. For what you're trying to do Id say the Selbstlader M1916 since its very similar to the Mondragon just with a slightly slower RoF but a 25 round removable magazine so you get a lot of ammo and fast reloads without too much drawback.

The auto fire is really helpful in close range situations, even if it is relatively slow. Just post up in one of the ruined buildings near the attacker spawn and wrack up kills. I've found the extended mag model 8 to be a pretty good gun as well. It's semi-auto, but has a faster fire rate than I think every other semi auto (also fires faster than the full auto 1907 when you're spamming fire).

i just went 55-1 with a flame trooper kit: [vid]https://my.mixtape.moe/mjqutu.webm[/vid] [IMG]http://images-cdn.9gag.com/photo/aL98Neg_460s.jpg[/IMG]

I did it. I just bought BF1. For some reason the medical syringe guy made me do it.

also is there a discord up for BF1 yet?

MG15 is a fuckin' beast Went 58-11 with it on St. Quentin because just about every single engagement distance on that map suits the gun well.

Wew, the FT-17 Flanker shreds enemies. I just went 40something-2 on Amiens. I'm not sure anymore if they're still OP or the enemy team is just incompetent.

[QUOTE=sa2fan;51246366]Wew, the FT-17 Flanker shreds enemies. I just went 40something-2 on Amiens. I'm not sure anymore if they're still OP or the enemy team is just incompetent.[/QUOTE] Incompetent. Soloing them as assault with the right equipment is very doable, and you can even solo them with limpert + light AT nade as Support if the tank driver is dumb or you have cover to dash in and out of while resupplying. IMO the heavy tank is a much better vehicle because you can fill the fuck up with squad mates, and so long as at least one of them is repairing, that shit is gonna take some work to take down. The Limpert Mine is so much fun and you all should try it.

What's even the point of the landship if you can just use the Heavy Tank? Sure you have two cannons, but the fact that you can't fire behind you at all is incredibly hindering.

Landships are meant to be escorted by infantry, not go out pushing through lines on their own They are monstrously effective when used correctly

well i made a discord to get the ball rolling with making groups piss easy: [url]https://discord.gg/Hv76nPv[/url] We can use both for NA and EU with separate chat rooms.

[QUOTE=Grenadiac;51246418]Landships are meant to be escorted by infantry, not go out pushing through lines on their own They are monstrously effective when used correctly[/QUOTE] Nobody would get in mine, but I can confirm that if you're quick enough, you can effectively use one by yourself, just keep swapping cannons, it's amusing.

I'm in a pickle right now. I want to get BF1 but I don't know if on pc or console. On one side I got all my friends on ps4 who play it but I really want to superb performance on pc. How is the ps4 version of this game? Heard it ran rather smooth.

All this war sure is exhausting... [t]http://i.imgur.com/VeRibU3.png[/t]

Man, i really don't like Fao Fortress. I DO like the boats though, fun as hell for strafing the shores.

I'm probably going to try the marksman version of the Selbstlader though to try to get some accurate shots off at a longer range.
