/bfg/ Battlefield General

Is there a way to increase zoom to 2.00x as cavalry?

...

Thanks user

nerf automatico pls

...

Why is the close support FT so bad?
It's the only variant I like and I want the C93 carbine

why the fuck do people keep voting for galicia and tsaritsyn at the end of the round

Poor little bolsheviks

What's a good Assault loadout?

any shotgun with AT rifle and AT grenades

Are assaults useless now?

>now
They've always been useless. Most players who play assault care more about spraying people down with their hellmemegle or autismatico instead of taking down armour

All classes except medic are useless, co-incidentally they have the least fun weapons in the game

>WE ARE LOSING OBJECTIVE APPLES
>team makes a beeline for it
>recap it
>WE ARE LOSING OBJECTIVE BUTTER
>another beeline
>repeat
Operations was a mistake

>57% win percentage
We're basically the same on that. I'm at 58%.

...

At least your team is recapping and not falling back to find a new hill to hump before the objectives are both fully taken

>repeat until the team gets stuck in the middle and loses both objectives

>boom damaged armor 19 points
>boom damaged armor 19 points
>boom damaged armor 19 points
>boom damaged armor 19 points
>die

hmmm i wonder why that is?

which is why sectors with 3 flags have vastly superior gameplay to that of those with 2 flags.

What is the best LMG for shooting down planes?
fuck this challenge can go to hell

I just got back into the game from a 3 year hiatus because some friends wanted to play a squad-based fps, were there any major changes I should know about? I played mostly engineer with MPX, G18 and SRAW, but my guilty pleasure is recon with SCAR-H SV with acog, heavy barrel and the first shot recoil grip. I always feel like a sack of shit playing bush wookie recon so I try to play pretty aggro.

>enemy hit 72

>vetterli-vitali does 100 max damage

What. I was laboring under the impression that it did less than that, given the dropoff chart

forgot pic

>top 0.1% for repairs

damn it feels good to be mechanized infantry

This is why you get on comms and tel, your team to look at the map and sit tight on the flag you captured, pushing towards the enemy line to spot tons and defend in depth.

>4 shots
>slow rpm
>also less than 100 max damage
yeah people would use that

>its the squad has 2 scouts that sit in the back of the map meme

>armored car that only shoots sideways
wew
>heavy bomber with mg that only covers the sides
lad

>one single light tank is destroying the entire team
>not a single soul puts the slightest effort into destroying it or even looking at it
>I'm the lone assault trying to bring it down but DICE thought giving tanks a emergency-repair button was a good idea along with repairing it without getting out
if an asteroid were to hit earth tonight, I'd be the happiest neckbeard on the planet

the heavy bomber has the worlds weirdest hitbox; I hit it directly into the side with AA cannon, clear hits with big puffs of smoke ... but no damage done to it

I hate having to play as the bad guys in the Russian Civil War.
>worker's revolution based on the ideals of a fatass neet who never worked a single fucking day in his worthless life
What the fuck were they thinking?

>11000 on experimental

that sounds painful user

...

>tfw no melee weapon that is also a gun and also allows for bayonet charges

What's the worst map in the game?

>when the syringe doesn't work and you still there poking a corpse until you get shot

Volga

still Suez

Ardennes

On hardcore it's better though cus people don't spam nades

>bayonet charge
>actually bump into the guy I'm trying to kill so that I stop moving forward for a second
>bounce off him and keep going
>die

>Hit 72
>Hit 72
>Hit 72

Fucking DICE

I don't get it

HE Trip mines, completely worthless against some who isn't wounded.

>Trip mines
I never used them, why aren't they a 1-shot kill?
they're easy to see

I switched between the MG15 LW and Storm on Monte Grappa, good luck.

BATTLEFIELD-ED

>mfw I shot down two planes before I realized there was a challenge for it
I was using the lewis gun because of a challenge, but I'd say MG15 is probably best.

tfw still have more fun playing bf4

How are people this fucking stupid to not realize that not only is their dope twitchbait 'skill shots' antics not helping the team, every fucker on their squad is being just as retarded?

The game just lagged so bad it took away 2 battalions in Operations. What the fuck. EU servers are beyond help now, they should just shut the shit down until further notice.

nice blog.

Thanks, I'll post them more often

...

Is Hardline active lads? I haven't played a BF past 3 and I want to buy it surprisingly BC2 is still fairly active right now and still fun

>hardline

page 10?

>trying to help my team in the heavy tank

i forgot the number rule for tanks
never ptfo

War never changes.

everyone always spawns tank hunter landships on that map in my experience

>low health
>walk into a spec of gas
>instantly die

hu.

based

what's wrong with it?

i never had time to play it properly but i had a blast on the beta charging around in cop cars, chasing the money bags. zip lining from rooftops, loads of awesome moments.

>spawn into tank hunter
>driver is trying to snipe infantry that are less than 50 feet away

>some guy in my squad spams request order
>literally like every thirty seconds he bangs out like 5 "REQUEST ORDER" in a row even though I'm constantly giving orders
>I forget to give an order for a few seconds
>he becomes squad leader
>doesn't give out an order
>I request an order
>he puts it on a random point nobody is even close to, not even him. and keeps it there until it expires
>whenever someone requests an order he puts the order on that same point
why do people do this? do they think they get more points or something by being squad leaders? are they just being assholes for the sake of being assholes?

They like blowing the whistle.

t. whistle autist

Progress keep resetting for the new achievements... what the fuck is wrong.

Oh no. Achievements for what?

>cut barbed wire
>it reappears somehow
>get shot by a sniper because I can't hurdle it now and now have very low health
>shredded to bits

Actually it works, was just bugged out.
The ones per classes. On the main menu next to the crate progress thingy, click that thing.

...

Haven't played in months. Did they make it so you can't use custom profile pics on origin anymore? Doesn't let me upload anything.

*tips fedorov*

There's nothing wrong with tsaritsyn. Galicia though...

>see enemy
>scope in with 10x
>he's a medic so he 2 taps you before you even get your crosshairs near his head

will SLRs ever be nerfed? its nice that medics are better scouts than scouts are

and now with the parabellum supports are better assaults than assaults

Yeah, you can only use those drawn emblems now. Why they backpedaled on a half decent feature, I don't know.

>medic can shoot you twice in the head before you even manage to aim at their head
have you ever considered that you're just shit at the game?

Glad it worked for you user

Painfully fun, user. Only the first 200 or 300 kills were tough

I mean I did successfully dome a scout with a cei rigatoni from a good 75 yards so I kinda see what he means, but yeah that scout was pretty shit so it about adds up.

>using the auto 8 .35 marksman again
I forgot how fun this is.
I need to unlock the 1906 sniper for better sounds and animations

>operations, russians on brusilov offensive
>we get whittled down on the first sector, nobody's attacking the points

leave it to the tsar loving fascists to bungle a war. cowards.

also the mars automatic is disgustingly overpowered

>I killed someone with a weapon
I'm sure every weapon has killed someone holding any weapon at some point

I used the Perino on Sinai Desert.

>trying to unlock General Liu's Rifle
>can't get squad revives because everyone skips to loadout screen

>have to get up at 6

Back to the rifle grenades. I'm never reviving anyone ever again.

I'm really liking the new music on the menus. It's new right?
