TDM has the worst SPM potential out of any of the modes I think. Even the best players will struggle to consistently hit 400+ SPM in TDM while 600+ is achievable in most other modes.

Even if your the best player in the game that's a lot of grinding, i couldn't do it, the rewards are trash anyways, IMO the unlocked class outfits are better than the ToW....Originally i thought those ToW outfits looked great, that's because i was level 18 when Lighting Strikes dropped, none of my characters use a single outfit piece.
Allied Assault..
Axis Recon..

Perhaps Domination then. I don't play a lot of TDM but I know it's the shortest game mode in terms of how long rounds last.

Got a chuckle out of me.

Hey all, back to see if battle royale is out yet, and to get a general consensus of everyone's opinion of where the game is now vs CD a month ago when I dropped off the radar. Anyone happy with the changes being made or is it all still doom and gloom?
The "changes" so far have mostly been fixing shit that was broken at launch. They are still ignoring most things, stupid stuff like squad call-ins (mentioned above) and class balance are completely brushed over and they've yet to do a thing about the plethora of cheaters on PC; they don't even communicate about that stuff. The game is packed with idiotic decisions, most of which have literally been done better in previous games but somehow have been deleted for BFV. It's very, very hard not to be negative. IMO the best thing about the game is the gun play, but I don't even trust that really, because it could just be because I destroy people as assault with a 3x semi-auto rifle all the time.
There's a new roadmap this month supposedly, with a new map as well. The problem is even with a new map, this BF still has the least number of 'em this far post release, and in my opinion there aren't many maps atm that I'd consider good so I don't have much faith.
Personally, I've mostly moved on to Apex or The Division 2. I don't really see Firestorm changing that, either.
DICE:
The story of BFV so far: let's deploy this buggy mess and see what happens. The reaction times are as terrible as they were with BF1: one month to fix respawn eye-rape, 6+ (and still counting) weeks to fix the reverse tank bug.
This is how I feel atm. I haven't played since I posted that screenshot a page back. The new road map is supposed to be this week and that's what I'm most interested in. If it's detailed and the game looks to be going in a better direction, I'll stick with it. However, if it's another vague road map, I'll probably be out. I don't really care about Firestorm, I'll give it a shot, but it's not something I'm really excited about or play BF for. There are a ton of high quality and complete games out there atm, so I'd rather spend my time with those rather than this early access BF we got.
Behemoths always felt like punishment for doing too well.
Except for the Dreadnaught. That felt like punishment for both sides.

I was up to level 36 last week, having done the vast majority of the weekly missions through February and march...but I just stopped. The level requirements got REALLY high, like 110k per level, and the weekly missions were hard for me (arm or disarm 4 times).
With only 2 weeks left, the missions were less than 1 level per week and grinding the rest was looking like too much.
Tldr, the exponential curve got me!
DICE need an entire team working on some kind of algorithm based on bomber/jet location relative to spawn points because if I spawn right on top of a bomber's bombing run one more fucking time I'm going to throw my computer off the balcony.
I downloaded BF1 again after barely playing 10 hours of it since it launched.
I really don't feel the guns, BFV wins hands down on that matter.
I thought BFV UI was bad but 1 is even worse. The sole advantage is the assignment that tracks by themselves.
The general athmosphere on the other hand is much better on 1, you really feel like you're in a war.
The maps are obviously more numerous but those i played today are sniper heaven (Russian maps and suez). Wich is kinda unfortunate.
But overall, i think i'll keep playing BF1 while waiting for interesting new stuff on BFV (and Firestorm is of no interest to me).

So, from what I'm reading, everyone has abandoned ship and the game will be dead in a month or two. Dammit, I just bought it digitally after having traded it a month or so ago. I guess at least I only paid 30 for it
I don't think we have abandonned ship. It's more like we're in shore leave. :p
The game is good, it's just that the lack of new content is getting difficult after 4 months of playing it. So we need to see something else for a while.
That's good, I was afraid I'd just wasted 30 bucks on it by buying it again. I've been playing Devil May Cry V for the last week and it's awesome, so I'll stick with that until I can get some new content/updates for this.
The only thing that keeps me returning to BF1 every once in a while is the artistic direction of that game. And the use of the music. Those two things make up for a lot of stuff.
Every other thing is better than BFV. That artistic choice of BF1, that feel of being in a dream-like sequence with steps into Steampunk-WW1, is unique, while BFV goes for a more gritty (Devastation, Fjell, Narvik) and/or realistic (TS, Arras, Panzerstorm), daunting at moments, feel. The visual tone of BF1 even makes some people think it looks better. It's quite an achievement.
The music adds a lot too. Soundtrack in BFV is great but it isn't as well used as in BF1. I'd like music to kick in earlier in the match in BFV.
But the gunplay, movement and map design is far better in BFV, there arent many base rape games in here.
Naaah, that's too hyperbolic. It's true that the game needs more content, but it's not going to die that easily. We're tons of people loving the game.
But DICE does need to step up it's game. We'll see this week that roadmap, see if it brings a bit of hype though I'm all aware that no matter how good it is, there will be complaints by the millions

Nah New map and hopefully a good roadmap this week. Also battle royal next week. But if this game does want to survive in the upcoming year or so, the roadmap better give people what they want.
I hope they tweak visibility some more...some camping playing Rush on Devastation and Narvik today was pretty insane...once you prone in rubble you really can't be seen...
I don't have problems with Devastation campers anymore, I raise the brightness to 65, the map is dark so players blend in with the rubble, with my brightness that high the map actually looks more natural and enemies are easier to spot..if you playing Rush once it switches to Narvik turn the brightness back to default if you don't want to go blind lol..
Hee hee yeah :)Actually, you have 3 days left
Was two weeks when I stopped!
I sincerely hope you're right. I've had a good time with what I've played and would hate to see it be a ghost town in just a short time
Err, so does that new Mosquito plane have a giant cannon that can quickly take down opposing air with a nice lined up shot or two? Much like the anti-tank canon on BF1 planes?
Because that's sure been fun so far.

The new mosquito, i don't know. But the new JU have been promoted showing a big ass anti-tank cannon attached under it's hull. I suppose it should do massive damage if you manage to hit a plane with that.
But i don't use vehicules, so i'll probably never see this in action.
Last 2 time I played a plane I got oneshooted by one of those fucker. Not touching planes again until that change.
Yes, the Stuka B-2 and new Mosquito/Ju 88 all have the ability to destroy any aircraft in a few hits.
The Stuka B-2 shoots the fastest, but does the least amount of damage per hit. You can destroy an aircraft in about 3-4 hits.
The Mosquito is probably the best, it has a lower RoF than the Stuka B-2, but it can two shot an aircraft.
The Ju 88 is probably the worst. Its damage is similar to the Mosquito but it has a lower RoF.
So, Mosquito>Stuka B-2>Ju 88.

The mosquito wrecked every single tank I had in Panzerstorm. Never felt that frustration in a vehicle before, I'll have to start using AA tanks again
By the way, do we know when the Firestorm embargo lifts?

Well I'm going to invest my time in Division 2 for a while. It's fantastic.
A week after it launches. Or maybe a week before. It's hard to say with DICE.
Deserter!
21st, I am 84% sure.
With these tank-hunter bombers, the AA tank + one positioned Flak cannon should be a way to go. We need a map like Panzerstorm, but WITHOUT AIRPLANES. Nobody wants to sit in the AA tank, scaring planes away while avoiding tank destroyers on the horizon. + we need shark vehicle paintjobs, tank tops, spec-ops masks, skirts and long hair.
youtubers are going to upload their gameplay this week, but we don't know when
Lol I've got 200 hours into BFV. I need a little break.
I hadn't noticed that the 25th was a Monday, the impression that I got from watching the trailer reveal stream was that they'd show it on the next shitty stream in a week, and then I figured the 25th was a week after that. But yeah it seems like the YouTube shills weren't allowed to say when they can upload their footage so.... ehhh....
I did actually have a lot of fun playing BFV last night. I got on the not shitty teams for the most part. 99 times out of 100 when someone revives me with basically no ammo left I curse my teammate's name.... but 1 out of 100 you get a Battlefield Moment (tm):
Hey man. I'm still playing on the regular. Just started God of War so I'm not playing as much but I'm still having fun with it. Definitely hopeful that Firestorm brings some much needed freshness
