Battlefield Franchise Megathread V1 - 'Hardline is still DLC' Edition - Games

How does burst fire work in real life? If you mis-time your trigger pulls would they act the same way they do in Battlefield? I have no idea how the mechanics of a real life burst fire gun works when it comes to trigger pulls.

I think IRL the trigger's disconnected until the sear is reset (so even if you somehow managed to pull the trigger faster than the burst resets it wouldn't do anything)

I'm considering buying bf4 on origin, worth it in 2016?

[QUOTE=DEMONSKUL;49603501]Still worth it, but do wait for a sale[/QUOTE] Is the server browser on battlelog annoying enough to mess with gameplay?

[QUOTE=Firetornado;49603492]I'm considering buying bf4 on origin, worth it in 2016?[/QUOTE] Get the premium edition when it goes on sale, you get the base game plus all the premium DLC for like 19.99€. And i say it's worth it, though you will only find the usual gamemodes being played, the others not so much.

Sometimes it's laggy and it glitches out but it has some nice features.

Funny how peoples keep saying hardline is dead when it's pretty healthy on console and the community recently grew a bit on pc

I have no idea how the mechanics of a real life burst fire gun works when it comes to trigger pulls.[/QUOTE] At least for the M16A2/A4, it's finicky in a different way. You need to hold down the trigger until the burst finishes and if you let it go too early, the next trigger pull will only fire 1-2 bullets. For example, if you let go of the trigger after 2 rounds are fired, only one round will come out the next time you pull the trigger on burst mode. It also affects the trigger pull on single shot mode, making trigger pulls feel inconsistent until the mechanism is reset every 3 shots. One of the reasons why the Army is now upgrading their M4s to full auto M4A1s is because the full auto trigger grip has a more consistent trigger on single shot. The Marines have also been eying a trigger upgrade. Even when they had burst, most soldiers are trained to pretty much never use it. From what I understand, burst fire on rifles like the FNC work a bit differently.

[QUOTE=PaperMartin;49604826]Sure that's a pretty low player number compared to other game but I wouldn't call that dead.[/QUOTE] 2k players would be fine if it was consistent but this is a big spike from the recent sale, before that it was less than 500 players and it will probably drop back soon

100k for SW:BF on PS4? goddamn

And that's just for pc,PS4 and xbox one are doing fine.

I'm just going to go buy a lottery ticket now [video]https://youtu.be/V1miYrika4E[/video] [video]https://youtu.be/C9V2nJ1etn0[/video]

I lmao'd at the first clip, because I knew EXACTLY how you were looking after you hit it

The Combat Medic field upgrade is fantastic. I can just hand out 100% revives left and right. All the points, but a lot less risk than having to charge up for a few seconds.

So was patrolling a few gun websites and came across the Improvised Gun coming in the new DLC for Hardline. Here hoping it fires like this: [media]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dv33pCUkLRM[/media]

Actual footage of the gun in-game ( [URL="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ETSjP_s68TI&t=1m19s"]1:19[/URL] ): [video=youtube;ETSjP_s68TI]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ETSjP_s68TI&t=1m19s[/video] It will be another mac10 with identical stats .... I dont know why they thought it was a good idea to put the Asimov paint, karambit and the mp9 into the mix, ALSO some dragon age inquisition sword, akimbo smgs and more copy-pasted guns from bf4 with no different diffuse texture, worse specular maps and stats that fuck up more the balance of the game Its obvious they dont know what they are doing with their game, neither they care apparently

They added an M1903. Why am I registering this as a subtle upcoming WW2 title announcement?

Because you're overestimating EA's willingness to try something more risky with the IP. WW2 games are oldschool so OBVIOUSLY it's unmarketable. [editline]1st February 2016[/editline] If they simply did a smaller project of limited scope and sold it as a stand-alone expansion to BF4 for 30 bucks I'd buy the shit out of it. It could work.

I want these in the following order 2143 > Korea > Vietnam > WW2
