That's why making too many core gameplay changes too soon after launch is a not a good idea IMO. You have a new game release and a bunch of new players pick it up that have no relevance to how the core game has worked in previous titles. That group complains because it's not this or that, DICE tries to add or delete whatever gameplay features this new group doesn't like and that's how the core gameplay changes and then the new players get tired of the game, they leave, and the usual BF veterans are left to pick up the pieces 6 months- 1 year after release playing a game that may have fundamental gameplay changes with input from a user group that invested little to no time in the game. Vent over.

Right bumper if memory serves. You could do this in BF1 as well.
There's definitely some blame on both sides for sure, and Dice is going to have to tweak the game to hell to get players to you know play the game right. It's been an on going battle for BF games especially on console, but 5 is faulting the most since it has such a huge emphasis on squad/objective play. People just need to realize you'll get your high kill ratio and high leaderboard rank if you just play the damn objective, use your support equipment, and are a competent FPS player.
Still think they should just make the crates auto heal/pick up within a small radius around the crate. Not worth teaching casuals to look down and hit X/square.
Also would like them to have a simple way to play with more friends outside of the 4 in your squad aka multi squad party, especially since playing with random casuals just isn't cutting it right now.
The crates sinking into the ground doesn't help and then them not showing on the radar just makes it worse. When you see people walk over them without using 'em it's probably because they didn't look down lol. If they showed on the mini map that would be less of an issue.
When I'm playing with my friend we have to spot our ammo/med crates for each other sometimes because we can't find them.
Yep, same button as when you give squad orders without using the commo rose. It was indeed in BF1, but wasn't there at launch.
Awesome! Thanks for the info. You learn something new every day! I agree with making changes too early, btw. I think it doesn't allow time for the core player base, the ones that will be there in 6 months, to get their bearings on how to play, especially if they leave until the bugs are fixed and then the gameplay is entirely different the next time they log on.
Gotta say it, I prefer bf1. I went back to it earlier after playing v for a bit.
I'm a tad disappointed. The maps don't help either

BF1 is certainly more fully featured, but it's almost impossible to return to that inaccurate gunplay
On the topic of crates, I don't like the idea of magic boxes. BF1 had them that way, and all it did was get people to huddle together and slow down pushing objectives. Add in the nade spam in that game, and it was not an enjoyable experience.
I like the way BFV does it now where a player has to actively do the action of replenishing ammo and health packs. It's not about realism, but more of getting the player to actually think about his/her next move.
DICE just needs to fix the visibility and the "sinking" bug, and I think it'll be in a good place.

Has anyone confirmed that the sinking bug is visible to other players as well, or only to the one who threw the crate? I ask because I threw a crate and all but the lid disappeared, yet someone used it and I got credit for it.
They really need to balance out the weapons, sick of getting sniped by LMGs. Dunno if I like the change to the mini map and kill spots.
Also getting real fed up of shots clipping into the ground while prone/crouched, so many times my sniper shots are missed because its hitting invisible objects/walls yet the person I'm fighting has an easy chance to head shot me.

Excited to see the ttk changes
The ttk does feel too fast IMO. Shouldnt be bf1 ttk, but an extra bullet or 2 (at long range) should be fine
I still wish they could address improving grand ops and conquest. I still really hope they will consider finding ways to encourage defending flags.
Adding more squad leader depth, reinforcements, etc would go a long way.

I don't have problems with the TTK and TTD (don't even know the difference lol).
I HAVE problems with
- missing assignments and assignments which do not track
- no autobalancing
- squads are locked by default

The worst part of the fortifications being busted is you can't build the snowman for the TOW assignment. :(
People are just determined to be bad at this game. Outside of all the bugs and nonsense Dice does, this is the thing that kills it. Medics refuse to heal, supports don't give ammo, no one spots, people ignore manual spots with the commo button, squadmates don't heal or spawn on you when you're single capping a flag, etc.
All people care about it trying to get a kill, and they can't even do that. Good job, guy. You didn't do anything else the entire round, but your 6 and 17 helped us lose by only 400 tickets. Thank god you were there to help.
This is why I stop playing Battlefield games. It's real good with a squad, but 80% of people that play are beyond horrid.
I certainly don't, here's why:
- Random bullet deviation had you miss shots where you were standing still, aiming a DMR at some dude's head and the game decides that today's not the day
- Gas nade spam, the god damn gas nade spam
- Cavalry class taking literally 20 DMR shots to the chest and head without even flinching
- Behemoths were lame and fairly pointless
- The absolutely stupid elite classes that no one knew to bayonet charge, ever
- Argonne Forest is one of the shittiest maps in BF history, yet everyone voted for it because hurr durr shoot down choke gun make cool sound
I guess if you can look past all that bs, it was a fairly enjoyable game. I couldn't and literally counted down the days for BFV's early access so I could uninstall that dumpster fire of a game :D
Not sure, but I've definitely seen someone else's crate sink. I was still able to interact with it tho.
I had around 100h in BF 1. I'm already at ~90h in BF V. Sure, I enjoyed my time in BF 1, but even with all the bugs and lack of content BF V has. I'd pick it over BF 1 any day.
Smoke is enormously underappreciated by the community. It's not just useful for covering revives, the most common use. They're just as useful for breaking MMG camping and disorientating defending enemies as your team assaults a capture point. This is particularly useful on maps with open lines of sight on efficient camping positions, like the rail line on Rotterdam. Punt a smoke grenade at the enemy and they'll be forced to move their position. It might not kill them, or damage them at all, but breaking their cosy little defensive position forcing their movement and breaking their line of sight is an extremely effective tactic.
Most of my best medic runs have revolved around this tactic. Disorientate with smoke, push ahead hard, and keep to the side of the main assault picking off disorientated enemies and those trying to get around the smoke. Medic really shines here as the enemy cant see shit, and you're right on top of them with an SMG.
I think they should add in a smoke reinforcement.
Lay down a barrage of smoke rounds on the battlefield.
Would be nice to see something other than a V-1 or JB-2.

The FG 42 is the only one that has some downsides. Noticeable recoil and 20 rounds.
The KE7 and Lewis are pretty much like lasers. There are no downsides to these weapons at all. Good damage, range, and mag size.
The Bren is garbage. Doesn't do that much damage, low ass RoF, and it has a big ass mag blocking your view. It's sad because the Bren is so iconic, yet sucks in this game.

The med crate def needs to be change in some way. Since the med crate doesnt really do much differences than the med packs. Atleast the ammo create does give you back gadgets.
Back today on Bf1 too, play 3 Operation match's and have a lot of fun. Still trying to understand why DICE kill the mode on BF:V.
Easily the best thing on BF1 with Frontlines.
same feeling about maps. BF1 base maps is way better than BF:V, imo
and some of them just badly designed for some game modes..
Spam operation Kaiserschlacht just because Amiens :P
I mentioned a few pages back I'd love to see some type of actual balancing for lmgs. They're stupidly powerful. If someone goes prone with one, you're fucked. If they're standing, they can still hang with ARs and semi autos at range, and smgs up close if the medic isn't great. I've been support a lot recently to finish leveling it and I ran off something like 35 and 0 on Fjell before I got greedy and died with a handful of tickets left.
Smokes are amazing. Medics can control the entire flow of battle. Like you said, smoke an enemy line and you've scattered them or forced them to sit and wait to be overrun. Smoke and revive half a dozen guys. The problem is no one plays medic because they can't get sick no scopes from across the map. The ones that do, for some reason, are fucking terrified of getting near combat and flee in terror if they see a teammate go down, running off and never coming back.
A creeping barrage reinforcement would be good. A nice way to push objectives.
OP
OP
Agreed
I've been playing since the preview and I'm taking a break until these new changes roll out so I can compare but I think I will like the changes
thinking*
Already talk about this but seems like no fix yet. i suppose it's a bug since the example shows a bigger circle than what happen in game.
I use it though. binocules you don't need even look to any enemy. that thing spot even looking for rocks XD at least before this patch's
I think the idea is that it frees up the medic from having to spam the ammo pouch button. With a health crate, multiple people can replenish health and med packs at the same time, and can continue doing so even if the medic is no longer there. It's basically a mobile health supply station. All of those things make the crate much better than the pouch, but the problem is the people who need health aren't using it.
Yeah I agree that the ammo crate is significantly better than the ammo pouch, but I really don't like comparing that to the health crate. There's just so much more flexibility in ammo replenishment because of gadgets.
Dont forget they compete with snipers too, if you try to snipe LMG/MMG you have 1 shot, if you miss that he is just gonna tap you forever with his laser.
haha, wtf. you have three more weeks. Good job.Finally got the lvl20 Tides of war skin:
Finally got the lvl20 Tides of war skin:
At least I can get a gas mask without playing recon.
Unless I missing an assignment I don't see it.
Allies is just two helmets. Axis gets a cap and helmet.
You're talking too much sense. Instead how about the support class can have LMGs good at any range, a shotgun that doubles as a sniper and a grenade that explodes on impact.
Welp just had my worst game ever. Dying instantaneously from prone LMGs/MMGs, barely any damage feedback. Did the netcode get worse all of a sudden?

Allies only?Finally got the lvl20 Tides of war skin:
:lol I got 3/4 but his game settings seems dark compare to my brightness level I use.
I mean prone support class is one of the biggest problems with the game right now
