Then enjoy getting killed by a dead body. Spotting solve a problem that you can't see anything on a Battlefield
But if you can't see the "dead body", how are you going to spot it? 🤔
Because you can just press or one to know that if they're alive or deadBut if you can't see the "dead body", how are you going to spot it? 🤔
Because you can just press or one to know that if they're alive or dead
And now everyone knows that the dead body. So everything is goodAnd while you are pressing R1, the "dead body" is pressing R2.... and then there is another "dead body"
I swear sometimes bullet(s) vanish, been playing nothing but Recon for 5 days straight, doing the assignment with 4 HS kill in one life, my final HS in sight, I sneak up on a player 8-10meters away, take the shot and nothing registers, he turns around kills me while I chamber a new round... wish i had it recorded, perfectly lined up shot against a player with 7 ping and the bullet vanishes lol..
oh that explains it, i hope they fix this shit soon...
Still crazy how many bad players are in this game. Love when they start shooting at me with their gun when i am in the tank. Thanks for letting me know where you are.
Team balancing is so stupid. My squad and me do great win all the matches and we get balanced to the losing team. Feels like you get punished for doing good.
Let me clue you into DICE's brilliant game design.When you call in a Churchill tank... where does it go? Not for the first time I've spent the funds, and can't see what happened to it. I even called it in at spawn, thinking it would show there.
Or when you have a bunch of your teammates shooting at a tank when there is a perfectly good Pak Gun next to you that you can use to actually destroy itStill crazy how many bad players are in this game. Love when they start shooting at me with their gun when i am in the tank. Thanks for letting me know where you are.
Oh so it's on the deploy screen only! Awesome, LOL.Let me clue you into DICE's brilliant game design.
You call in your tank and then you either kill yourself in game, respawn from the menu or hope an enemy kills you before either a squad mate takes it or it vanishes like a fart into the wind.
Data-mining of a recent patch showed an icon for Ships artillery.The squad call-ins are such a fuck up. V-1s are the best. Everyone is trying to call it, so there is a fucking queue just to use it and when you do the binoculars go black screen and you call it in on yourself.
Also what ever happened to the new squad reinforcements. Weren't we supposed to get a smoke barrage and sector artillery?
Last week was a nightmare. I'm now at ToW 26, I pretty much stop playing for the week after I finish my challenges right now. More engaging games to play out there. Got this week done in about 2.5 hours. I used the server browser to join a game so I wouldn't get put at the beginning, got into a game with 2 minutes left in it and got that first annoying "play one match" requirement out of the way. And it put me on the winning team, so I steamrolled through the plant and objectives. At the very end my team turned into the not so great team, lost the last two games, but it was fine since I just needed the 25k points overall by then.Last week was frustrating with all the crap teams, this week RNG blessed me and i landed on aggressive teams, i completed all assignments yesterday in 3 and half hours...ToW level is 30, i am not playing every day, and some of the weekdays i do play, less than 20mins, ToW reward 38/39 will be mines without trying to grind it...hit level 40 yesterday 10 levels to go..
Canceled, DICE is transitioning into an Apex Legends skins studio.Also what ever happened to the new squad reinforcements. Weren't we supposed to get a smoke barrage and sector artillery?
I agree with you, it's for the squad. I'm glad it's not going to waste.Yeah, they work just like any other tank except that the icon is more visible and it's on a timer. I call the reinforcement vehicles in when some or all of my squad is down so they can hop in them. Don't have much of a problem with how it actually works (as squad leader you can keep the rockets if you want but it's nice to share the wealth with your squad, as you're all doing the work together) but it is a little weird and I imagine a not insignificant number of those call-ins go unused because people aren't looking for them despite the notification.
Don't know that I agree with RadioActiveLobster's take that they're yours and yours alone and you have to suicide and claim it before your squad "takes it." They're supposed to take it, you're a squad!
I don't mind the lack of spotting on BFV, but I think an Apex Legends system would work really well on BF. Ping based and make it only visible to your squad.
What's the general state of the game right now? I've not played since first 2 weeks of release. I was one of those people excited with their stated design philosophy during beta and prelaunch but the subsequent changes didn't rub me right way. I eventually stopped because none of my friends were playing and they didn't find it encouraging either. I liked it because the pacing was super different from the other modern BFs. I found the post beta launch changes unnecessary for example. Do I have the right read here? I've been looking to get back into it but my last memories suggest the game was moving away from that
edit- hmm reading earlier pages about updates and cheating and balancing is putting me off again
It's going to need 8 more maps not to be a disappointment. I don't know if that's realistic without Premium now. I'm not personally bothered by getting more factions and vehicles, but they probably have to do some of the more iconic vehicles from other factions.So let's talk Live Service.
What are everybody's hopes and expectations?
It's safe to assume that we're not getting the same amount of content as we did with the season pass, at least not in the same time frame.
But what is the sweet spot content wise? And I'm talking maps/weapons/vehicles, not new assignments 'n shit.
A new map every 2-3 months. And we definitely need more gadgets. And I hope we'll get the Russians in the first half of the year.So let's talk Live Service.

To be fair I play 90% of my games with randoms and most of them are less useful than a chicken with its head cut off and would immediately drive said squad reinforcement vehicle directly into the middle of a point filled with assault players and die.Don't know that I agree with RadioActiveLobster's take that they're yours and yours alone and you have to suicide and claim it before your squad "takes it."

I seem to recall "innit" being slang many years ago too, or I could be wrong. I did notice when watching the UK's Informant on Amazon Prime Video that they use "innit" a lot at the end of sentences.FYI in the UK we've had a growing trend of "innit" being added to the end of everyone sentence. I think it's a contraction of "isn't that right?" And people are addding it to every sentence because they want you to agree with them.
The young people's version of the Oxford English dictionary, urbandictionary.com, has this to say on the matter:-

Edit - on topic - the apex ping system should be in every online shooter, and probably most online team games tbh.
Breakthrough is far closer to Rush than TDM is to Domination.This has probably been discussed a lot, but I would just like to reiterate that Rush should be a permanent game mode. We surely don't need both Domination and TDM, two nearly identical game modes, do we?
Also, when will I be able to buy weapons from Tides of War Season 1? Are they like forever gone, or what's up?
You're right. I forgot about Breakthrough, however, the problem with Breakthrough is that it's tied to Grand Ops and only available on 3 maps (I think?). I would have to either play all 3 days of Grand Ops, or only join for Breakthrough and then leave. I don't want to do either of those.
The main difference between Rush and Breakthrough is the defenders can recapture in Breakthrough. What's the difference between Squad CQ and Dom? (genuine question, I don't know).I'm curious if they are going to change Rush at all. As of right now, Rush and Breakthrough are almost the same thing. The only difference is arming an objective compared to capturing one.

I agree, there's too many. And soon there will be even more modes. Meanwhile the most successful shooters have far less modes.You get a tank in Squad CQ.
Honestly, I think there are too many modes. Does anyone even play all of these? I just go into the different modes for assignments. They need to keep it simple.
Conquest
Rush or Breakthrough
TDM and or Dom
Less modes and more maps. This would lead to better map balance and quality.
I don't think so. Once experienced the movement and gunplay of BFV, it's hard to go back to BF1 and BF4 for me.So I've been playing Battlefield 1 again on my Xbox One thanks to the EA Access thing.
That game is absolutely way better than BFV. Visibility is way better than BFV. With the exception of Suez and Argonne the maps are all pretty good. AA guns are actually a threat to aircraft. The class balance seems way better. The UI was actually designed by a human. Character progression is fun and doesn't end at rank 50. The game actually has a team balancer. Medics have actual honest to goodness rifles and it didn't break the game. The game looks nicer.
I've really gotta ask what the hell happened to BFV?
