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

[QUOTE=Squarebob;48374996]Hardline is dead bf4 is popular[/QUOTE] Hardline is hardly (ehehe) dead, there's always at least a couple of almost full servers of any of the gamemodes.

[QUOTE=nightlord;48374864]What's the population for BF4 on PC like? I'm thinking about getting it while it's on sale but it's been out for almost 2 years now. Is Hardline more popular?[/QUOTE] You may be literally unable to play Hardline PC, there may not be servers. If there are, it will be very limited and one will be 64 players The Block.

[QUOTE=Amfleet;48375049]You may be literally unable to play Hardline PC, there may not be servers. If there are, it will be very limited and one will be 64 players The Block.[/QUOTE] It seems there are only around 2000 players on Hardline whereas BF4 has about 20k, so i think i might just get BF4.

[QUOTE=nightlord;48375145]It seems there are only around 2000 players on Hardline whereas BF4 has about 20k, so i think i might just get BF4.[/QUOTE] Go for BF4 and Premium if you can afford it.

[QUOTE=simkas;48375041]Hardline is hardly (ehehe) dead, there's always at least a couple of almost full servers of any of the gamemodes.[/QUOTE] So 2-3 servers being semi full is not dead to you? On any given night BF4 has 30-40 servers full just on one game mode with just one region.

[QUOTE=JJ4prez;48377890]So 2-3 servers being semi full is not dead to you? On any given night BF4 has 30-40 servers full just on one game mode with just one region.[/QUOTE] 2-3 for each gamemode. Point is, if you wanna play it, you can always find a server to join, that's not dead.

Vote time. [B]Do you use leaning mechanism?[/B] Yes, very often - [img]http://www.facepunch.com/fp/ratings/tick.png[/img] Maybe, sometimes - [img]http://www.facepunch.com/fp/ratings/wrench.png[/img] No, rarely - [img]http://www.facepunch.com/fp/ratings/cross.png[/img]

[QUOTE=LoNer1;48378314]Whoa [url]http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf4/soldier/DIEMEXO/weapons/272824260/1/#aek-971[/url][/QUOTE] That guy is a 64p Metro/Locker player... His stats are worth jack shit.

Aside from feeling like a badass Columbian drug dealer/dinosaur hunter and that +1 shell, what does the Spas have that the 870 don't? Both are my top weapons and I switch between them regularly, but I still don't know any jack shit difference between them.

Why wouldn't someone use that? You'd only be putting yourself at a disadvantage :ohno:

The peeking thing is pointless since most of the time, you'll be manually moving yourself in and out of cover when doing peeks/checks. Plus there are some people (like me :vs:) who use movement to partially aim and the peeking mechanic can really fuck that shit up sometimes. Also Jesus fucking hell, how the hell did I never thought of going Support shottie before? Clearing D Shanghai while blowing up a ninja IFV charging through the centre with some well placed C4s feels so fucking satisfying and badass.

[QUOTE=Squarebob;48379889]You're talking about the automagic cover thing right? Why wouldn't someone use that? You'd only be putting yourself at a disadvantage :ohno:[/QUOTE] Yes , cover mechanism. Some people just rush forward...

I'm gonna scrim. Lord have mercy

Spas can't hit a person at 15m that effectively. [editline]5th August 2015[/editline] [QUOTE=coverop;48380027]Yes , cover mechanism.

Decided to play as an assault on CQL 48p Caspian Border. Generic match... thought about checking stats of the round: [t]http://i.imgur.com/whQecu8.png[/t] Yea... how typical. There were a total of 26 revives in my team, 25 of which were made by me... I wonder who was that other lucky one.

There were a total of 26 revives in my team, 25 of which were made by me... I wonder who was that other lucky one.[/QUOTE] It's funny. When I go Assault with a revive kit, I end up being one of many revivers, so I'm basically useless. When I got with a grenade launcher, nobody revives. Guess I'm just not lucky

Yup, no one revives anymore and it's sad.

I revive a lot when I'm Assault, but revives are much less common on large maps just due to the size and spread out engagements. On most conquest maps I tend to play Engineer unless I'm planning on fighting in an area that I know is mostly infantry.

Little medbag is pretty cool if you're the rusher type. Healing on the move, ho!

[QUOTE=StrawberryClock;48380969]Little medbag is pretty cool if you're the rusher type. Healing on the move, ho![/QUOTE] After around 80h using little medbag, I have to say It's better than large one. The only disadvantage between large medbag is that if you get a hit, it cancels your healing. Kinda balanced.

The game has been out for 21 months. Assuming he started playing on release day, he's spent a little more than 1/7 of these past two years playing BF4.

Just applied for the BF4 NA platoon. Is there a TS/vent?

[QUOTE=Squarebob;48381693]I always find myself playing engineer over the other classes because for some reason whenever I play no one else kills fucking vehicles.[/QUOTE] Especially choppers and jets. Whenever someone goes on a scout helo, he always gets insane K/D like 40/9 or something because he never gets shot down.
