I think the Entente medic is black. Is that because he's supposed to be from one of the colonies?

[QUOTE=StrawberryClock;50653459]I think the Entente medic is black. Is that because he's supposed to be from one of the colonies?[/QUOTE] Indian maybe. I remember seeing him with a turban in a screenshot.

[QUOTE=Taepodong-2;50653493]Indian maybe. I remember seeing him with a turban in a screenshot.[/QUOTE] The medic is Indian, the Scout is an ANZAC soldier, the support is british and the assault is black (prob from african colonies) maybe I mixed the last two, but im sure im right

Didn't the recent leak say that you're able to pick from 11 different faces/races for your character? If so, then I think it's just that the Medic is defaulted to the Indian character face and that we'll be able to change it anytime.

Sorry, meant one of the German soldiers is black, I'm pretty sure it's the medic. Germans had colonies in Africa at the time I think?

at first the idea of bolt actions being 'sniper' weapons was annoying but given they don't seem 1-shot kill with chest shots, I think that's actually a better setup for battlefield's gameplay it would be annoying as fuck if people could easily 1-shot you with bolt action hipfires or quickscopes

Just a heads up, but Hardline: Betrayal is on the house right now. The dlc servers aren't very populated, but you might as well pick it up for the extra weapons.

I wish you could hear your own soldier voice in BF4 like you can in Hardline, especially since some of the stuff you say in Hardline (specifically the criminals) cracks me the heck up.

[QUOTE=Oblivion Knight;50653726]I wish you could hear your own soldier voice in BF4 like you can in Hardline, especially since some of the stuff you say in Hardline (specifically the criminals) cracks me the heck up.[/QUOTE] But you can?

was i supposed to sign up somewhere for alpha access, or are they giving them out randomly?

[QUOTE=Daemon White;50653739]But you can?[/QUOTE] You can hear the autotrigger callouts from your own soldier in BF4? Maybe something's wrong on my end because I don't hear it.

[QUOTE=Pops;50653813]was i supposed to sign up somewhere for alpha access, or are they giving them out randomly?[/QUOTE] I signed up almost immediately after the BF1 reveal in I believe it was Battlefield Insider. If I'm not mistaken either, you can still sign up for BF Insider but it will be for the beta as there is no more sign ups for the alpha. I'd try and find the information for you but that's just off the top of my head and I'm on my phone. A simple Google search should give you more precise details.

[QUOTE=Oblivion Knight;50653956]You can hear the autotrigger callouts from your own soldier in BF4? Maybe something's wrong on my end because I don't hear it.[/QUOTE] It's not 100% of the time, but I frequently hear my soldier call out jets / soldier / whatever I spot.

Have more people gotten access to the Alpha?

[QUOTE=Daemon White;50654329]It's not 100% of the time, but I frequently hear my soldier call out jets / soldier / whatever I spot.[/QUOTE] Yeah but those are just spots. I think he meant stuff like these [video=youtube;ryDHmR7WNzo]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ryDHmR7WNzo[/video] Which you can't hear from your own soldier.

Oh, those. Yeah I don't hear those either. Except maybe the Grenade toss and reloading ones.

I wonder if the german team has bonus lines complaining of shotguns being used against them.

God I'm desperate to get into the Alpha, it would be amazing to try out my new rig that's coming on it.

I'm planning to get a 1070 if this job lasts for a while, can't wait.

Apparently you can release footage from the closed alpha now. [media]http://youtu.be/fxRRHB4MVIw[/media]

[QUOTE=ColdAsRice;50655156]I wonder if the german team has bonus lines complaining of shotguns being used against them.[/QUOTE] Would it be neat or overpowered if the trench gun had a slam fire select?

[QUOTE=Shenesis;50662005]Is there a server browser for the closed alpha? If so, is it web-based still?[/QUOTE] Nothing currently is web based in the closed alpha.

Ye, the BF1 alpha NDA was [URL="https://forums.battlefield.com/en-us/discussion/7203/bf1-closed-alpha-nda-embargo-lifted"]lifted[/URL]... Ofc, potential glitches/exploits should still remain undisclosed, there's a private feedback section on the forums for those...

[video]https://youtu.be/nslkCTz5jKY[/video] It's pretty good

did you get the key just by signing up for the insider thing? i have signed up pretty early for it (not thats an indicator for how fast you'll get one but still)

[QUOTE=Damjen;50663665][video]https://youtu.be/nslkCTz5jKY[/video] It's pretty good[/QUOTE] Until it actually played the battlefield theme, it sounded like TES to me. I'm glad they're back to orchestral score now though.

bayonet only [video=youtube;p0NEGW14G9I]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p0NEGW14G9I[/video]

[QUOTE=cr4sh!;50663678]did you get the key just by signing up for the insider thing? i have signed up pretty early for it (not thats an indicator for how fast you'll get one but still)[/QUOTE] That's all I did. I forgot to mention though, which probably makes a difference, I signed up for a PS4 key. Can imagine the sign ups for PC were significantly higher than consoles. I need to build a new rig to begin keeping up with the upcoming years at a decent level. My laptop right now keeps a steady 40fps with everything low (mesh ultra) on BF4.
