[QUOTE=ulvemann43;50414890]I heard a slightly saddening story from my BF about one time when he went to a server, and the admin was attack/scout heli only, and had banned the following: "igla, stinger, RPG/SMAW/SRAW/LAW/TOW/TANK/anything against helis, MAA [B]and[/B] any air vehicles that he didn't fly.
How that server ever got a larger population, i have no idea.[/QUOTE]
I'd have gone in and just used the recon binocs to freak the fuck outa him :v:
[QUOTE=cr2142;50414882]exactly like the only server I play on (rocknroll, its a german server that does high ticket conquest maps)
Literally everyones chill, I got fairly well known around there for being the only one to casually just shoot down aircraft in a tank like 3 times on average per match; although theres like two clans that always play on there and when they are on they are usually on the same team, so expect to either have a shit ton of consecutive loses/wins[/QUOTE]
Tried playing on that server. A few rounds and then I was kicked for no reason.

They have server VIP(donors and the like). They skip the que and if the server is full, someone is kicked.
I like the ones that say "no dumb rules!!" and then have stuff like that.
I also hate too many rules. I've seriously been on servers where pretty much the only explosives they've allowed in grenades. It ran mostly Locker and Metro. What's even the point.
why are locker/metro in normal map rotation for the average server anyway if people want to play those just go to the billion 24/7 meatgrinder maps. I have this great polish 60hz no rules server I play on all the time but some fucktards vote locker or metro half the time and almost the entire server population vanishes.
Apparently, the multiplayer map names are leaked. Take it with a grain of salt though.
Asiago Offensive
Gaza Sands
Siege of Damascus
Stalemate
ANZAC Cove
Garden Twilight
Argonne Shade
Operation Castlewick
Scorched Earth
Asiago Offensive sounds delicious.
ANZAC COVE
FUCK YEAH DAY 1 PURCHASE

Seems like it's gonna be a boat map.
[QUOTE=StrawberryClock;50428648]Seems like it's gonna be a boat map.[/QUOTE]
rumour say it's like a D-Day map

Although in the war they had their bases/trenches all set up on the cove, where units sleep etc. before running onto the field
More units would ship in ever so often, like few days for reinforcements

I was a VIP for a month back in march, yeah this is true, you automatically start joining the game if its its full, lowest valued player is auto kicked.
I find it funny how serious people get about meatgrinder servers. Like, what's the point getting mad at a MEATGRINDER server? All it's good for is shooting the fuck out of people.
Tbh i hate meatgrinder servers. Like, i'd actually like to play the game instead of spending all of Locker on the spawn screen because of the C hallways heing clusterfucks of INRV LMGs and explosives. Good for grinding out Medkit and Ammo ribbons, though.
One of the many things I will enjoy about BF1: no FLIR/IRNV
I am glad all the no skill weapons and gadgets are leaving.
It is not fun when your in a vehicle and the entire enemy team has lock on weapons,
or you are on the ground and all vehicles have FLIR.

I was genuinely pumped about making a video to have a shot at it but I guess you don't matter if you don't live in the US.

As well as a stock. I would say it's an artillery Luger but it appears to be lacking the artillery Luger rear sight, looks more like a navy Luger or some other amalgamation.

Couldn't tell if it was stocked or not.
I'm really looking forward to the raw MP stream, we'll be able to see the UI and vehicle spawn mechanics (which are the thing I'm most concerned about) as well as all the odd unscripted foibles that come with that sort of thing.
Still hope there's a single player trailer too, just for the fuck of it.

Oh man am I glad to be wrong. I can't wait to see this. Its exactly what I wanted to see.
I really, really, REALLY hope that new BF will...
...not have as OP and annoying vehicles as BF4 has. There is little to no fun to fight against vehicles as an infantry, also there is barely any counter against them ("pro" vehicle drivers are almost invulnerable).
...include better class balance. No more of assault that is the best [I]damage dealer[/I] and the best [I]healer[/I] at the same time!!!
...not introduce any meatgrinder type of maps (metro or lockers), nor vertical clusterfucks (flood zone)
...have some kind of logistics that were present in the older BF titles. For an example ammo in vehicles that you replenish at your base or supply points, transport vehicles having a role - get rid of spawning on squad mates, allows players to be dedicated transport drivers that help your team move around the map.
...not be afraid of adding more gameplay depth, at the cost of lower casual player accessibility.
...have lesser focus on vehicle dominated maps, where playing as an infantry is anything but a chore.
Optionally, some better way to deal with vehicles as any class (pick up rocket launchers, stationary AT weaponry, etc). I dislike how big conquest maps are mostly populated by engineers... I want class diversity and all classes to be viable at all times.
These are my hopes for new BF, as someone who got ~800 hours in BF4 and 400~ in BF3.
Don't really have stats for my BF1942, BF2142, BF2 nor BC2 :(
Oh great, another free Hardline expansion.
Put Hardline for free, then we'll talk.
Hardline is totally not an expansion pack sold as a full title that super failed guys

I can't believe my thread title is still so relevant to this day.

for the next thread title I'm thinking "the future of warfare is in the past"

it's funny because of the double meaning

IIRC, they confirmed that assault and medic have been split
